Haven't Met You Yet

I'm hooked on to this song by Michael Buble.
He's a sweet guy, regardless. And I love his songs!
This song is really catchy and I remember he talked about how this song is for the singles out there, keep your eyes open, don't miss any opportunity because you just haven't met the right person yet. =)

And Michael Buble actually told ET Canada: “What’s weird is that the song is inspired by [my girlfriend] and she’s a great actor. She’s way more famous than I’ll ever be outside of South America, Latin America. So it wasn’t just that I wanted my girlfriend. It was that she’s perfect for this. She’s got the right energy and I knew that she could put it across. It was great.”

PS. He's girlfriend, model Luisana Lopilato is also featured in the music video. I must admit they look fantastic as a couple! *grins*

So here's the video.

Haven't Met You Yet by Michael Buble

Back at home

Hello! I think I should get back to blogging again like after 2 months? Oh well, I would take Uni as my excuse and how busy I have been since I have to move from where I currently reside. So, I just landed at Singapore Changi Airport Budget Terminal (yes, looks like they built in on a budget =p) at 3.00AM on Friday, 11 December. I had this bittersweet feeling. So what about it? I hate to leave Perth and for some reason I don't feel excited coming home for the first time. I think it's because of some discussions I had with him recently. Anyway, that's beside the point. So I took a cab back to my sisters' and cousins' place just 10 minutes away from the airport. I was really exhausted. I haven't been sleeping much this week due to moving and running errands. My tiredness got worst when I was trying to catch some sleep on the extremely cramp Tiger Airways A320. I sat beside these Chinese Australian couple and I was on my aisle seat which I always loved but to my disgust, the lady sitting next to me had to go to the toilet like umpteen times! And she shook me each time when I was about to fall asleep (what a nuisance!). So now my body clock is in a mess. I finally went to sleep at 4AM (I think) and got up at 7AM. Spoke to my sisters Esther and Grace and had brekky with Grace. She's going to KL today to attend her friend's wedding so I guess I wouldn't see her until Wednesday when we're going to Bali. How excited is that, but I'm still feeling numb over something else (sigh). Alright, I thought I should be catching some rest this arvo but it seems like I'm not going to do that for some reason, because I'm feeling too bored and it's worthless to sleep at such a fine day (I know I sound extremely crazy now). I guess I'll keep my writing habit back soon. I'll blog again tonight, to keep you readers updated about what I'm up to on my first day back in Singapore after 8 weeks (I know, it sounded like ages but what else could I share over here?! =p). Alright, adios for now!

Otak-otak Place

If I do blog a bit earlier, I could have fill you in with my holidays back home. It was for my brother's wedding but yeah, that's beside what I'm trying to tell you. But I will blog about it when I'm free. =)

So we went to 1 Utama for shopping - which I didn't get a single thing at all!!! Our four little princesses went to this Kids Gym - costs RM25 per kid - so we adults, could have our retail therapy.

Ting and Esther went to meet their friends while Grace and I hang around new wing. We went to this authentic Malaysian place - Otak-otak Place - to have late lunch. The place is filled with things that we played with in our childhood and gosh, I don't think there'd be another place has such collections! Anyway, I meant to show you some pictures of the place and their food presentation as well. =)

Ps. I was so dumb I didn't take the SLR with me that day, have to resort to using my phone. =(

A New Revival

I'm back again!!!
I haven't been blogging for nearly 3 years. I'm having a hard time figuring how this thing works (can't blame me, I was younger then and much more enthusiastic =p).

So, what makes me want to blog again? I was doing my placement at RTRfm today and was pretty bored (as usual) after finished writing tomorrow's Morning Magazine rundown. I thought maybe I should start blogging again, regain my vocabularies - which was long gone.

It's funny how I wanted to have a comeback punchline but all I have is a old, dull 'I'm back again'. Oh yeah, I had heaps of ideas when I was on the bus but all the hassle creating this blog domain has push those beautiful punchlines off my mind! *argh!*

Back to what I should blog now. As mentioned, I'm currently doing my placement (aka internship, or whatever you call it) at RTRfm. It's a pretty cool place, a community radio station on Beaufort St. My supervisor, Peter Barr, used to be my first year Intro to Broadcast tutor. He quit his job at Curtin and works full-time for RTRfm to produce two shows. You must be thinking what do I do there right? Well, I don't write news for the station - which is way out of the scope of what I learnt - I write rundowns (segment intros) for the Morning Magazine show. It's interesting as it's much less formal compared to newswriting. This experience will definitely contribute to my future somehow, hopefully. But anyway, I have like another two weeks left for my placement and guess what - I'm getting done and over with Uni by 30 October! How fascinating that idea is - by then - not now, of course!

Alright alright, I better get off the net and get something productive done. I should cook dinner tonight - don't remember when was the last time I ever cooked a nice meal. Then write my journals (diary entries) for my placement and have a good sleep! So adios for now. Will definitely see you soon! =)
