Me, Bill, Tarcy and Lloyd went for a little Go-Kart Race yesterday.
It was so much fun !
Lloyd and Bill took 2 rounds, me and Tarcy was cheering for them.
I will definitely do it again :D

Virtual Friends into real friends
The first time I get in touch with Internet is when I was in highschool.
I have my own computer, and I connect it to internet, and started talking with people in MiRC.
I used to be in the MojangBujang, and Bawel Room.
chat with lots of people.
From there I know Sondi and Ko Hendra (KoHen), which turns out become my friends.
I still keep in touch with Sondi, but no longer with KoHen.
I met them several times, first time my parents accompany me to meet them.
Then in 2007, I join in a forum, and from there I met more and more new virtual friends.
Some of them are still virtual (I haven't met them yet), and some of them is real !!
I met with Rian already, and I planned to meet with Seni, Margha, Thomas, Ivan as well.
They are good friends, I love talking with them, and I can't wait to see them in person.
So, Yay to virtual world !
They bring out lots of good people to my life :)

St Patrick's day
A couple weeks ago, I went to the St Patrick's day Celebration with Bill and Tarcy, and we meet up with Scarlett there.
Below is some pictures
Below is some pictures
the crowd with their green dragon
people queuing for beer and meat pies.
A lady told me "hey, u need to stay in line if u want to buy some beer" (I was standing on the side of the line, watching the beer being poured on a cup, for bill, who was BUYING)
I said "I'm sorry, I don't drink !!"
Geez, I know the rule of queuing !!!
Me-Scarlett and Tarcy
I finally have sticker on my cheek, and I was really happy about it !! :D
St Patrick's day best couple
Bill was annoyed though, because I was so excited the whole day
and I can't stop moving my flags or talking or moving.
Well, I got so tired by the end of the day :)
After the festival, the four of us went to the clothing market, then Scarlett have to head back home, but Tarcy, Bill and Me went to the antiques market, pet market, Xintiandi area, till we finally went home.
It was a very nice day :)
Hangzhou Trip
Last Friday I went to Hangzhou to see my friend, So.
He's been living and working there for about 3 months, and I miss him dearly.
I took a train, leaving Shanghai at 8pm, and arrive at 9.30pm.
So was on the station to pick me up, then we rush to the bus station to get to his house.
I was sooooo happy to see him, and we just can't stop talking.
After like 20-30 mins of bus ride, we arrived at So's apartment.
It was a nice one bedroom studio apartment.
It was so much bigger and nicer than the apartment I am living now.
We sat on the couch, and talked for hours, till I decided to take a shower, followed by him after that, then we went out to eat Lanzhou Lamian.
It was about 1am when I decided to go to sleep (it's pretty late for an early sleeper like me ! :D)
And as ussual, early sleep = early wake up
I woke up at 7.30ish, and try to make my self as quiet as I could, till I wake So up at 8.30
He took a shower, I made my breakfast, then we're ready to go out again !
We're going to have a buffet brunch at Carribean restaurant.
We took bus (of course!), and walk some distance to find the restaurant, then we ate.
For a 50RMB buffet,the food was pretty ok.
I mean, its very CHEAP ! and its ALL U CAN EAT.
But, we know that we will never go back there.... x_x
So, it's not ok for us, but ok in the term of price (ga punya pendirian :p )
After eating we wander around, we walk here and there, and all the way talking to each other.
We went to the pedestrian street, where there is a lot of small stalls and shop selling souvenirs.
It's also the place where I bought a small helicopter R/C toy which Bill wanted for some time :)
We took a break and chill out at honeymoon dessert, then we walk some more....
We walk walk walk and was so tired when we reach the Xi Hu Lake, so we are sitting on the bench.
Resting our poor legs, while all the while watching the obnoxious teenagers nearby, and commenting on passer by's clothes-shoes-hair...hahaha..... xD
We book a place to eat, a hot pot place called Seafood Dollar Shop (something like that)
We got there, order our food, and we order shrimp.
I saw that the price was 218RMB/500gr of shrimp.
We order 0,3 of 500gr (do the math !)
We were worried that it will be so expensive, but in the end, the food is still not cheap, it was a RMB 286 for 2 person to eat Hot pot !!!!
That's not cheap at all....
It was around 7pm when we're done eating, and we need to head back to the train station, because my train back to Shanghai was at 8.40pm.
We got there at around 7.45, and I accompany So queuing, till I left him to go to catch my train.
I arrived home at 10.30, gave bill his presents, which he really love, got to meet Muffin again, took a nice shower, then head to bed.
It was a wonderful day in Hangzhou
PS : no pictures (yet), me and So didn't take so many pictures

My life is Great !
I have 9 piercings and a tattoo,
what's next ?
I miss beach.
The sun on my head,
sand on my feet.
Warm salt water hugs me tight
I miss the excitement I feel when I read a good book.
One that I can't get to put my book down
I love good conversation either face to face, or through IM's
I love to remember the excitement that I feel whenever I fall in love.
And cherish those calm but mature feel of love when the excitement is no longer lingers.
I love when Muffin being so bitty,
his sharp teeth on my finger is just so cute.
I miss the time when my girlfriends stay over at my house,
we talk and laugh all night long.
I miss the time where I hang out with my best friends, Jojoba and The Blast,
I watch them grow, and they grew up with me.
I miss those times with Britney,
when she was the only dog.
I miss going out with my family,
when it was only the four of us.
I love Christmas, Chinese New Year and birthdays,
if we celebrate at Oma's house, with all the family members coming.
I am happy that I am able to love, and to be loved.
I am very grateful for what I have.
My life is just so GREAT !!

1 Liter of Tears
I just done watching the Japanese drama, knows as Dorama, called 1 liter of Tears.
I heard people talk about it long time ago, and they said it is very-very sad, etc.
Back then, I don't watch those Hongkong-Korean-Japanese (basically Asian) tv series, so I wasn't interested.
Oh, I watch Air Stewardess when I was in elementary school, and it is Dorama, but that was because I so want to be an air stewardess (so it doesn't count :p )
The 1st Asian Tv series which I'm really into is Meteor Garden, a taiwanese tv series ! :D
Anyway, last week when I was super bored, and I just have to find something to watch, so I head to mysoju.com, click on Japanese Drama, and I saw 1 Liter of Tears !
So I started to watch.
It is sad, but I didn't cry at all, not even close....
It is sad though.
>>Based on a true story. This story is about a girl named Aya who suffered from an incurable disease, but lived life to the fullest until her death at 25.
The original story is based on the diary Aya kept writing until she could no longer hold a pen. The book that later followed entitled “One Liter of Tears" has sold over 1.1 million copies.
Aya's only wish was “to live." By carefully depicting Aya's earnest desire to live, and the love of her family, friends, and lover, the drama, “One Liter of Tears" wishes to deliver her simple but strong message: “Just being alive is such a lovely and wonderful thing." (source : here)<<
This dorama was good, and I should say that I admire her spirits !
Fighting, never give up !

Happy Birthday, Mama !!
Happy birthday, Mama
I wish you a long happy and healthy life, full of God's grace.
I wish you ENOUGH, because I know u aren't a greedy person.
I love you so much and I am the luckiest girl in the world to have a mother like you.
She taught me millions of things.
Values of life, how to behave, treat people and to make decisions.
She teach me to differ right from wrong.
She trust me in every single things I do
She took good care of me when I'm healthy and sick.
She is just like a marriage,
In good times and bad times
Wealthy and poor
Healthy and sick
Till death do us apart.
I love her deeply :)

Abusive Relationship !
On Monday, March 8, 2010, there's no man at all at the office, just 3 girls : me, CC and MW.
It is also the day when my colleague, CC got in a fight with her husband, PZ.
CC told me "Tessa, if PZ show up, don't open the door" (I sat in the reception seat, so I can see)
So, when I saw him, I immediately grab my cup and go to the pantry to get some water, so I don't need to open the door for him.
I heard the bell rang, and I just stay back in the pantry.
Somehow, CC must have let him in, and shortly I hear shouting on the meeting room.
I return to my seat (which is just beside the meeting room), and I saw PZ grab CC's eye glasses, and bang it to the corner table on the meeting room. Glasses is a history, pieces of broken plastic and glass are what's left behind. I didn't plan to get involved at all.
They were shouting, and I heard CC scream "call 911 !!", that's when I step into the meeting room.
Then I saw PZ hitting CC !!!!!!
and this is over the top, so I step in to separate them. At that time, MW was helping too.
I shout to PZ "You can't hit a girl !!!!"
I was standing in between CC and PZ, with my fist ready to hit him in the face if he try to hit CC again.
PZ told me to step out, I didn't care.
I press CC with my back to the wall, holding her arms down with my elbow, MW was holding PZ's jacket and talk to him "don't fight...come on don't fight"
All the while PZ didn't care at all.
Dear God, it was intense !
They are arguing in Shanghai dialect, and I don't understand what's going on.
Till he finally left without a word.
After he left, I questioned CC, and she said she feels ok, nothing hurts.
The only visible wound was on her neck (when he strangled her, CC told me later on), and on her cheek bone near her left eyes (when he took her eyeglasses off)
That PZ is a stupid little piece of S**T !!!
I hate him so much (there I said it !!)
What kind of a man who hit a woman ??? Go to F**king HELL !!!
Hope CC could think better on what she should do with the marriage, which is only 6 months old.
Damn u, PZ !!!
how dare he......

A little bit of fat
I'm a proud mom, because Muffin finally gain weight !!
We can see him a little bit bigger now, and we are happy about it !
After the painful neutering process, Muffin been eating a lot.
His appetite is just really good.
And since he lost lots of hair, we bought him a supplement for his hair, and hopefully it works.
So Muffin will become a nice and beautiful, happy and healthy dog !
Now that he already gain weight, all we need to do is to make sure that he have enough exercise and not eating too much, so he won't be too fat.
Yay !
I'm a proud mom

Technology brings far become close, and close become apart
It's ironic how computer and internet connection could bring those who are thousands kilometers apart to be close together,
and those who are close to be apart.
It's funny how we could talk with our friends on the IM for hours,
but we can't even talk with our life partner for even an hour.
It's interesting how we could stare on our computer screen endlessly,
but look away from our partner in count of minutes.
And yet, I am here with my computer.
Ironic !
