There are so many regrets i have and sometimes i wish there were such thing as a time machine. i'm going to be 19 in a few months time. Man, time past way too fast! Please slow down. I think the older you get the faster the time goes by. I could still remember me in my Kindergarden years how i miss those times, free from worries and no stress! Now all i can think about is College, Future, Earning Money to avoid my Parents from being stress.

PRS New Building

♬ Hallo hallo hallo i'm back with more stories to tell ;)

Last saturday i was at the school opening since Vicky wanted to see what the new school building of Phillip-Reis-Schule looked like and during the first week at the new school i haven't been around much so i didn't realize it was so cool, big and so pretty compared to the old school which was just really really .. not pretty!

BEFORE :

This is just one part of the school, see the graffiti?

AFTER:

The Main hall, looks like an office right? (Sorry for the blur quality)

LOCKERS! ( but i don't have one cause i don't need one :P)
I think this is the PM-Action room, where you can chill, damn cool right? (@Cherminnrawks)
This is like an empty plot in the middle of the school building.

The main entrance to the school ;D

The Sports hall 1 (see on the left there's this wall climbing thingy there)
Sports hall number 2!

The School has a really modern concept. It doesn't look like a school as a matter of fact. It looks more like a University. Inside it's all really Grey and neutral colored which i find it really nice but not for a high school, maybe for a university. The toilet has a really striking color though. Girls > Green (YES of all colors they picked green well if they wanted to make it stand out, it does). Guys > Orange. Unfortunately i didn't take any pictures of the toilet, there's also the theatre hall which is huge but i didn't take any picture and also the class room :S Maybe next time? ;)

Mouth-watering-delicious!

"Who are you to judge the life i live? I know i'm not perfect and i don't live to be but, before you start pointing fingers, make sure, your hands are clean first."

Lately, i've been browsing through my old post and i realized my writing hasn't really change. I'm still the same and i feel like my english has gone worst it's probably cause everything is in german here so my kepala became a little german too. Haha I'm even sometimes thinking in German language which is odd but when you're here for 7 months that is bound to happen.

Since i have the sudden mood to blog i'm going to update all of you my old news, Those who probably have me as a friend on Facebook and follow me on twitter will know what's been going on in my life and those who aren't well you'll find out now :D

Last Saturday, i had a mini Chinese New Year Celebration with all of my dearest asian, half asian friends. It was a potluck so everyone of us had to contribute something to EAT. Before the cooking started we had to pick up Edmund from Friedrichsdorf Bahnhof (Train Station) It was a freezing cold morning even the bottle of water in vicky's car was ICED. Yes it was literally a bottle of ice. [Sorry no picture ):] When we arrived home the cooking begin, Edmund helped a bit he cooked "egg+tomato sauce+tomatoes" i made the "wanton" and steamed the "siew mai" (a Dim Sum Dish) and of course RICE.

Yes, i actually cooked this ^_^

Look at that, it looks and even TASTE good.

Karin brought some Japanese fried prawns with mayonnaise and OMG it was mouth-watering-delicious! (Picture above *drools*)

I'm not usually a Vege person but this one is too good to past ;D

Belle brought salad and pork (chinese cooking style) Which was really delicious too. Talking about this, is making me hungry again. *tummy grumbles*

Okay, this picture doesn't really show you how good it is but yeah. You get the picture.

When everyone was seated we just stared at the food for a moment because everything looked so good that we don't know which to start first, i just had to have everything at one go. Yes, it was that good! *Huge puppy eyes*

i actually have more to write but i have to save that for the next post cause now i have to skype with Sangie <3

CIAO BELLA!

Confidence and Independence

"An umbrella can’t stop rain but allows us to stand in rain,the same way confidence does not bring success but it gives power to face the challenges."

I think today has been one of the happiest day i've had so far. Auf Deutsch : Ich bin heute sau gluecklich! If you don't know me then you probably should know i'm not one of the most confident person. I'm pretty much scared to do something alone and always have to have someone stick by me. I'm afraid of being lost. I'm afraid of taking risk. I'm afraid of being alone and not being able to find my way back. But there has to be a day where i have to break free of that cause living in this world is taking a lot of risk and i think today is that day. I know i should have break free from this from the day i arrived here but i guess i'm a late bloomer. But it doesn't really matter cause as long as i can bloom that's what counts! ♬

It snowed yesterday so today the roads were filled with light snow it was really pretty with the snow. Surprisingly it wasn't as cold as last week but still cold since i had to walk all the way to school. Which was btw a 20 minute walk. My school moved to a new building so it's not a 5 minutes walk anymore. The old building was really ugly and old filled with graffiti but the new school is really pretty. They have this modern outlook it actually doesn't look like a school. It looks more like a university or office. Which is pretty cool. I'll try to take pictures next time but it would be weird. i'm not sure if im even allowed to bring a camera because we are not allowed to bring phones to school but nobody cares. After school, i took the train to rödelheim ffm. That when when i first got my confidence cause i've never really took the train alone all the way to frankfurt. Plus i had to find the German centre myself which i have never been too but have looked a far. At first i was lost but then i started opening my eyes bigger and found the place that i was suppose to walk too ~phew~ . The minute i got in to the Centre i was overwhelm by the people in it. There were so many international students, (P.s i saw koreans ;D) I felt like i have finally came to the right place. Cause then i'm not the only one who has trouble speaking german. They were facing the same problem as me. The guy who worked in the reception was pretty cute too ;) There were also lots of cute guys there ;D Moving on, i had to take the A2 and B1 test unfortunately, my grammar was horrible BUT the guy said i could speak and understand well *thumbs up* for me. What's good is i can speak and understand just that my grammar needs some brushing up! So i start in March and i'm looking forward to it! Hopefully i'll find some friends :-S

Then i called Mami and decided to visit her in Bad Homburg at the hospital that she was living in. I was practically jumping with joy when i saw her. Had some delicious cake and latter machiato with her. Talked about my wonderful day then Steffi came. We shopped around for a bit. Bought stuff that we needed and then finally headed home. It was a really busy and wonderful day though ;D

More stories to come, old stories but till then

Chinese New Year in Frankurt

Being home alone and doing nothing all the time is so damn boring. I can't wait till i "maybe start" my germany classes. So i was having the weekend home alone most of the time cause the others were away somewhere. Luckily, on saturday i had ready made plans. I met Alison and Jimmy with their cute little daughter Joelle at the BH Train Station! If you don't know who is Alison or Jimmy , They are friends of mine. I met Alison in Goethe-Institut Malaysia where i studied german and from there i met her husband and daughter. We took the train to frankfurt then transit from another station to Neu-isenberg where the restaurant that we were suppose to go as Deutschland Malaysian Club hosted a tiny CNY celebration there. Met lots of Jolly group of Malaysians, feels almost like home except all of them are people who are much older then i am but age doesn't matter right? Even Joelle made tiny little friends. I'm not going to lie but i miss home and Chinese New Year in Malaysia is still the BEST! Not having celebrating CNY has been an experience but i don't think i want to miss it again ): There is no joy in celebrating cny without your love ones and friends <3

After the lunch, we went to hauptwache and from there i met up with Karin and Belle <3 We went for a little shopping and i bought myself a Pants :D Which i have been wanting to but couldn't find the right one and finally i did! We also had our normal tradition Drinknig bubble tea when we meet everytime ;D Before we knew it we had to return home cause Karin had a curfew oh well, we took the Gonzenheim train and when it was their stop we said our good byes.

Today was the day that i really missed home. I woke up and realize that everyone back home is anticipating for the Chinese New Year eve. Yes, it's Tonight! (it's passed midnight in malaysia now so GONG HEYY FATT CHOI!) The whole "tiong" family are back home reunited together while i'm the only one missing )':

I miss the Malaysian chinese Food, the family, the gambling, the fireworks!

But i guess this is an experience not being able to celebrate Chinese New Year for the FIRST TIME! (omg that's just so not normal) Imagine, celebrating it for the whole of your entire life and now it's the first time you'll not be celebrating D: , that's just WOAH!

Well technically, i am celebrating but just through skype, it's not as real though but better then nothing. Got a skype call from the family and yes i started bawling my eyes out *homesick moment* i decided to cheer myself up by playing some Sims 3, Yes sims 3 the best game ever! Finally my sims 3 can do laundry and i finish building a house ;D When it was almost midnight in Malaysia i received another Skype call from my family. I watched the fireworks through the camera thanks to Modern Technology im not missing out much.

Missing everyone back home.

HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR!

HAVE A GREAT DRAGRON YEAR! -RAWR-

FROHE CHINESISCHE NEUE JAHR!

thank God

Few days back, or was it yesterday? ah, screw it! it doesn't really matter. I'll just get on with my story.

Despite the sudden drop of temperature, it was a beautiful day and the sun was shining.

Victoria (my host sister since forever <3) was oddly in a really cheery mood.

Me: Uh, are you ok? Cause you seem to be overly cheerful today (ok i didn't exactly say that but i can't exactly remember what i said).

She : Nothing, it's just a really beautiful day, let's go for a drive!

Me: How about we go for a picnic?

and so we started to prepare stuff like making coffee, cutting apples (yes vitamin) , packing bread and a bottle of apple juice.

Steffi (my lovely younger host sis) decided to tag along and so did Sammie the cute Doggie!

Everyone was ready and we were off to our adventure. We didn't exactly know where to go so we decided to drive around the place to find somewhere we can hang out.. soon the sky was turning darker and darker till the moon was up and ..

we still haven't found a place to settle (too late, aye?)

Then it happen, there was a weird sound under or somewhere of the car.

I had a pretty bad feeling about it, i was having a flashback or what was going to happen.

Vicky decided we should stopped at the Car Repair shop. We were debating if we should wait here till 7 or come back on friday (btw it was 6pm) and so the decision was made. We will stay so we all (including the dog) got down from the car and went inside to sit while they get the car checked.

Vicky got the news from the repair man that if we wouldn't have gone there earlier something really really bad could have happen and for a moment we were in a state of shock cause thank god we made the right DECISION.
