CBN Carnival 2013

        The long awaited carnival had finally come after six long years. :D My favourite school event was held last Saturday and it was the most awesome carnival that had ever been organised! I was thrilled to be a part of it as I finally had a reason to visit my beloved school and to embrace the changes that has happened since I left. Plus, it was also like a mass reunion for teachers and former seniors, and I could give a new name to it 'The Hug-A-Lot Day'.

Welcome to CBN Carnival 2013 :D
        I was being over-excited as always  so I decided to bring my college mates along to experience the fun of my former school's quinquennial carnival. Yeah, it was supposed to be held last year but due to unavoidable factors it was brought forward to this year.

        I would say that this was another college trip. xD We gathered at the Masjid Jamek LRT station before 'hiking' up the pineapple hill. Haha

Waiting for James to arrive 'cause he was late :D

        We reached school at about 11 am before meeting up with Melissa and Gillian in the school canteen. Omg, the carnival was so crowded with people and stepping onto school grounds immediately triggered bittersweet CBN memories. I missed hearing night-market noises made by everyday-CBNers back in those days and just the thought of it drew a huge smile on my face. O.o But words couldn't describe how stoke I was to see my friends, former teachers, staff and juniors that day! xD

My college buddies :D Moments before entering the haunted house

        We headed to the haunted house first because I figured it would be a better idea to scare ourselves first before putting food into our stomachs rather than vice-versa. Haha We were kind of nervous at first because none of the girls were comfortable with the idea of entering the haunted house except for the guys of course! xD Oh well, it was worth a try so all 11 of us entered the haunted house with two guys in front and two guys at the back while the girls were sandwiched in between. IT WAS PITCH-BLACK IN THERE! We couldn't see a thing O.O

        Guess what, this was my first official experience / first brave attempt of entering a haunted house. I entered a haunted house once back in primary school days but I guess that didn't count. D: I actually screamed at the top of my lungs in there when a 'ghost' grabbed me from the side. :O And when I screamed, everyone else in front screamed! Haha Hilarious moments :P Yeah, we were exposed to shocking encounters with several zombies, mad women and scary things in there. Plus, the creepy sound effects contributed to the volume of the SCARE-O-METER. I freaked out as every corner we turned there was something/someone waiting to scare the hell out of us :O Despite that, it was an awesome experience for I enjoyed every single bit of it :D

Two thumbs up for the awesome experience! xD

        The day was getting hotter so I decided to cool off at one of the classrooms upstairs. I dragged my college mates along to play Twister with me. Haha I seriously miss having Twister moments with my friends! xD

Sook Ting, Allen and Yong Jie were forced to play Twister with me ;P
        Later, some of us went to grab some food while others saunter around the stalls. After a while, they wanted to give Bungee-Run a try since it was their first time discovering it. All the guys, Joyce and Sook Ting went bungee-running and it was such an interesting race to watch! Haha  

Sook Ting vs Joyce
Terry vs Yong Jie
          After the Bungee Run, some decided to call it a day while others including me stayed to play the Scary Maze. :D The 'Scary Maze' was equally as scary as the haunted house. Gosh, and poor Allen... He got pushed to the front and this time, he actually screamed aloud. :P He lighted our path with his phone 'cause the whole path was PITCH-BLACK as well. Though he was being a kill-joy the light did help to shine the way out. It was indeed the stuffiest place to be in at that hour. o.o

We survived the Scary Maze.
Gillian, James, Melissa, Xin Yan, Allen and I
        My remaining college buddies went back after the maze, at about 3 pm and I was left all alone. Haha Just joking! xD

       I went around to meet-up and reunite with my former teachers, classmates, juniors, seniors and staff. It was such a blessing to see all of them at the same place! Man, I seriously missed each and every one of them  :D

Datin Aslindawati, my favourite BM teacher. Words cannot describe how much I miss being in your BM classes!
My senior, Hui Pin
My seniors, Charissa and Ann Shobna. I''ve known  them since primary school days :D
My senior, Jo Ey
Kit May, my fellow 5U classmate
My former 5U classmates : Hidayah, Yu Wein and Xin Yan
Pn. Haida, one of my favourite teachers along with her kids and  Pn. Chua
        I accompanied Catherine while waiting for my sister until it was 4.30 pm before she headed home as well. My sister took quite some time to clean up her class stall with her fellow classmates. When she was finally done, it was about 5 pm and we were all practically drained because my whole family spent the entire day at the carnival.

       Before we left, I took a short stroll along the school compound and just embraced the moment. Just to let you know, I wasn't really prepared to graduate after SPM for my heart and soul remained in there. It took me some time before reality struck in. Nevertheless, I knew that somewhere in my heart, I felt truly blessed to be a CBNer. :D

11 schooling years at CBN had shaped me into who I am today. :D
Thank you, CBN! xD You'll always be in my heart for I believe that..

ONCE A CBNER, ALWAYS A CBNER!



A Visit To Recruit Express

       I went to visit my former colleagues at Recruit Express today. It was also to celebrate Fredrick's and Nisha Diane's LAST DAY. xD I rushed to the office right after class to buy them their favourite snacks for the occasion. Haha We enjoyed our one-hour after lunch moments taking loads of photos, making jokes and laughing hysterically, screaming at the top of our lungs and circulating farewell cards to the office before the boss returned from her lunch break. This is a clear representation of the saying 'the mice will play while the cat's away'. Bwahahaha

By March end, I will no longer see them at the office for they've a stronger calling out there.
        I'm going to miss them so freaking much after this though. :-( They've always been my friends, mentors and coaches since my first day of employment, and now they'll be leaving the company. Although I'm no longer attached to the company I believe they could go far in life with their interpersonal skills, diligence and vibrant personalities. xD 

Farewell my friends! :May the future ahead holds greater opportunities and prosperity for all of you. God bless you guys and stay happy! xD

HELP CAT Blood Donation Drive

        Hey peeps :D Today was the most awesome day of the week 'cause I felt like I've contributed to the society. Haha Well, I went through my first experience as a blood donor today and survived it without a sweat or a shriek. Man, I'm so proud of myself! xD I was kind of anxious at first but thank God, everything went perfectly well.

Gillian takes a short rest after the whole procedure while my blood gets 'drained' . Hahaha
James and Zu En showing their manliness. :P
Yong Jie is finally A MAN! :P
        The most memorable moment was taking part in this drive with my bunch of crazy college buddies. Although a couple of them didn't get pass the screening counters for clinical and medical factors such as being underweight, lack of iron, blood insufficiency etc, they showed their support by keeping us company till the end, so all of us missed half of our FFA class this afternoon with a SOLID REASON/'EXCUSE'. xD

There are actually two more female donors who aren't in the picture, Gillian and Vinnie :D
OUTCOME : Guess whose blood is in this bag?! :D
        Seriously I wouldn't mind donating my blood again for the whole experience was just pure FUN! :D For those who aren't afraid of blood or needles or maybe would just like give back to the community, you can definitely do that by paying the nearest APPROVED blood donation centre a visit or by taking part in a blood donation drive. BE A HERO, SAVE A LIFE! xD

Clare's & Syaminee's Farewell Meet-Up

        Well, two of my former classmates will be leaving Malaysia to study abroad so I organised a farewell meet-up for the occasion. Clare will be making her way to New Zealand on the 18th of February whereas Syaminee will be going to India on the 15th of March.


        This time our second reunion / meet-up took place at Berjaya Times Square where we had so much fun catching up with one another whilst making a whole of noise everywhere we went. Haha We had to fill our tummies first before our bowling game later in the evening so we let Syaminee and Clare to decide on where to have our lunch. After a long stare at the nearest directory, we finally made a unanimous decision and chose to eat at Nando's. 

Lunching at Nando's with this crazy and noisy bunch
From left : Wenn Yue, Me, Hanani, Erniza, Harshiah, Syaminee, Clare, Wen Qing and Yu  Wein
        Our lunch or should I say FEAST went on well and was pretty embarrassing actually. Haha We were literally the NOISIEST BUNCH who occupied the long table for more than two hours. This is what happens  whenever a class reunion or meet-up takes place.

        Oh not to forget, the climax of the day was when Raveenaa showed her face. xD It was hilarious! When she arrived, she literally screamed in excitement and all nine of us shouted "Woah!" at the same time. The whole situation was followed by a dead silence that overcame the restaurant as everyone was staring at us. Yes, THE EMBARRASSMENT! But I can say, we seriously miss the noise we were all able to make in school since college life now requires us to behave appropriately and which includes keeping our noise level down. Haha

        After lunch we made our way to the bowling alley while Raveenaa and Hanani sneaked out from the group to buy farewell gifts for our two main stars of the day. After we registered ourselves and booked our lanes, we surprised them with those gifts which Raveenaa and Hanani got for them.

See what they got for Syaminee and Clare. Pretty and memorable bracelets :D
        Sadly, Raveenaa had to leave early so we took a group photo before she left.

Wenn Yue, Clare, Erniza, Yu Wein, Harshiah, Hanani, Wen Qing, Raveenaa and Me
        Then, we took our bowling shoes from the counter and bowled till 4.00 pm. I'll just post the photos up and let them do the talking.

Team One consists of Erniza, Mei Wern, Clare and Hanani
Team Two consists of Harshiah, Yu Wein, Syaminee, Wen Qing and Wenn Yue
Hanani and Yu Wein
Wen Qing, Harshiah and Hanani actually put on CBN socks for the game. These peeps are legit CBNers! xD
        We said our goodbyes and took some photos before leaving Times Square so that we could cherish every moment of today's meet-up.

Syaminee and I under the cherry blossom tree xD
       
         After we bid farewell to everyone, Harshiah and I went shopping for my phone case as I needed one. We finally found a perfect one after about half an hour 'cause I was being too picky. Haha This was my belated birthday present from her! OMG, I have the most awesome best friend in the entire world! xD

See what she got me  or should I say what I chose xD
        Then, we walked to Pavilion Kuala Lumpur to meet up with her mom for dinner. We had a hearty meal at Morganfields and shared epic moments of food sharing and catching up with one another. xD

Food sharing moments or should I say food fighting moments with my best friend :D
        We ate and ate and ate until we couldn't eat anymore so we decided to go shopping for Harshiah's stuffs. :D At least the walking helped my digestion a little. After an hour or so, we said our goodbyes as it was getting a little late and I was afraid I would miss my train back home.

        Overall, today was indeed a day to remember :D Now, I understand why my teacher used to say that secondary school friends would usually remain as your friends for life. Well as long as I'm around, there will be more meet-ups and reunions. :D

Vivian's 23rd Birthday!

      Hey, everyone! I'm back with more updates :D I just returned from Vivian's birthday party which was celebrated at her aunt's house. Thanks for the invitation, Choong sisters! I enjoyed your hospitality and was glad to be there to share your joy along with your immediate family members and friends :D

Family and friends
      
      I came early and hung around for a couple of hours before the guests arrived.  I drained most of my energy in the afternoon by being my typical and hyper self :-/ I shoudn't have done that though?! When evening fell, guest arrived and as usual, there was a mini catching-up between friends and get-to-know sessions.

The guests has arrived!

      After that, we had an absolutely delicious buffet meal prepared by Vivian's mom and aunts. Then, we had an awesome time playing X-Box 360 Just Dance 4 which required every single person in the house to participate. LOL Like I said before, my energy was drained by the end of the day so I was pretty much a walking zombie after the party.  MY APOLOGIES :-/

Nevertheless, thanks for everything and I would also like to express my gratitude to Vivian's aunt for fetching my dead-looking self home today. Thank you! xD

A Joyful Day

Its Harshiah's birthday today...HAPPY BIRTHDAY HARSHIAH!!!! And today, we went for the CBN 1s Family Day Carnival...well, as ex-cbn 1 students, we supported the carnival! haha

The funniest thing that happened today was the moments in the Haunted House. We laughed our heads off throughout the trail after Aazraa said the pom poms were hanging everywhere. We came out laughing too...I think the people who disguised as ghosts dare not scare us since we laughed like no one's business.

Then, we also decorated cup cakes...and ate our 'beautiful' decorated cup cakes. We wanted to get the XFM freebies but too bad, there were too many people and we were tempted to watch the dance competition.

There were so many groups... I think I enjoyed the music rather than the dance haha After we got bored, Harshiah, Mei Hua and I played games till the day ended. Our favourite game was the Rubber Animal Throw. haha

Hope you enjoy your birthday, Harshiah!!! Hanging out with you on your birthday is my pleasure and sorry for coming late..hehe

Good Luck Maxine!
