Top Ten things that I'm longing for...

Somehow I'm addicted to Top Ten list. So, here's another one...

Top Ten things that I'm longing for, for now...

10. Vacation. Not a high budget one... just a place with a beautiful view. I have a few places in my mind. Maybe as near as Bukit Tinggi, Pahang where I'd like to stay at Colmar Tropicale or as far as Beijing where Great Wall of China is a must. Another honeymoon I'd say. The perfect time would be on the 1st of April next year - our wedding anniversary... but I have a course at INTAN, Bukit Kiara from the day until May 9, 2008. Ermmm... I'll find the place and time later.


9. More money. A typical wish right? But yes, I'm longing to have more money... who doesn't? With no extra work! Too unrealistic? Who knows maybe I'll be the winner of TM Merdeka Millionaire... (I already sent two entries ok) and win RM1,000 000.00!!! Wow, many zeros there... I like.

8. Crocs. Crocs claim their shoes are super-comfortable. They even have top ten reasons too on why we got to have them. I'd like to have one of the model... Sueded Alice to be specific. It looks cute...

7. PDA phone. Ok, of course I'd really love to have the latest and most sophisticated PDA phone... but I have to be realistic. Thousands RM for a mobile phone even it's a PDA mobile phone is too extravagant for me. Can you imagine if you accidentally drop it onto the hard floor... like I always did with my current mobile phone. Arghhh it must be a very distressing moment to pick it up and make sure it's still OK. So, I'll be satisfy with Nokia E61i. The price is around RM1,700... guess I'd still be extremely worried if it happened to drop accidentally.


6. New laptop. Too tempted to buy a new one even though I just bought this one (my current laptop) on May last year. Intel Core Duo Processor, 1G RAM, more than 100G hard disc, integrated bluetooth, wide screen monitor... I think I would never stop longing for a new laptop as the technology never stop growing and the price becomes even more affordable. I love the design of Sony Vaio Notebook but I prefer to buy a laptop with only FreeDos inside...


5. 50kg. It means I have to reduce 6kg! I miss my old slimmer body where I was comfortable to wear anything. I desperately want a flat tummy! I believe if I can throw away the 6kg, the fat at my stomach and thighs will go away too.

4. Baby. Now I don't know when is the right time to have one since I plan to further study in UK on September next year. God knows best. Sooner or later, of course I want a healthy one or more. It's not too over to ask for a cute one also right... just like in the picture below... how adorable...


3. Pass the IELTS exam. Pass the JPA requirement... that's it. But for my own target, I would like to get above 7.0. I keep telling myself to be extra hardworking, but I guess I'm just too lazy even to start making exercise on the exam. Ohh... I need a knock on my head, a hard one so that I stop playing around and wasting my time.


2. Offer to university in UK. University of Liverpool to be specific. I have the confidence that I'll get the offer, at least to one of the universities... but I won't stop praying.


And the number-one thing that I'm longing for is...

1. Happiness. Sounds cliche, isn't it? But it's so true. In the end, even though we have everything in life, no matter how far we have traveled, how many kids do we have, how rich and succeed we are, how fine do we look... above of all, we would still ask for happiness.

Me being "All-Malaysian Woman"

I've been reading chick flick novel - "All-American Girl" by Meg Cabot. Chick flick movies are nice to watch, some are very entertaining. But for novel, I guess this will be the last. No, it isn't bad. There's a part that I like. It's fun. It just that, I'm not into this kind of novel to begin with... I picked this novel because I was attracted to the many lists of Top Ten made by the main character - Samantha. She had Top Ten reasons on why is this and that, Top Ten ways, Top Ten facts... that I myself is also drawn to make such the same effort.

One of Those Great Days

It was Nov 29, 2007. I had been expected it anyway. I had called & asked when will I received the item. I had been asked to wait instead (for how long maaa...?) & so I did. I was waiting... until that afternoon... the courier guy came to my office... & here it is... the Samsung MP3 U3 player (worth RM549 as advertised).

The memory storage is 4GB... & that wasn't the best part yet... the best part is... IT IS FREE! Yes, it's free... thanks to JD because made me canceled the earlier registration of Streamyx & changed to this promotion, though I had to deal with my patience being tested to the maximum level by TM's customer service personnel & since I registered this using Maybank credit card, & was the 1st 500 customers, I got a headset too! I felt like jumping... yeay yeay...

I received the pack. I already knew what was inside... but still I was very eager to open it.








The headset, gift from Maybank... I deserved it as I am one of the loyal customers.






Here it is...











Smart & sleek... small in size, big in storage!










Now I can listen to my hundreds (or thousands?) favorite songs...!








That day was certainly one of those great days... Great gift certainly can light up anyone's day I guess!
