The Little Nyonya










Yes, I've just finished The Little Nyonya 小娘惹 a week back.
It's too interesting as I used only few days to finished a 34-episodes-drama. =)
It's the best Singapore drama I've seen for these years. The story is talking about a nyonya-Huang Juxiang. She's born in 1930s. She is beautiful, gentle, and has fantastic cook. She was deaf and mute when she's 9. She's ostracized by her family members. Especially the Mistress. As her mother is the second mistress-天蘭.
Juxiang is being forced to marry to a rich Baba as a mistress. As she doesn't like the Baba, she resists the marriage and runs from home. Right before the Singapore was attacked by Japan, she met her guy, which is a Japanese-山本洋介. They finally get married and Juxiang gave birth to a daughter named Yueniang. During the World War, Juxiang is tortured and so is her husband. Her husband was forced to stay in Japan for the World War. And so Juxiang was forced to foster Yueniang on her own. Later in the war, both Juxiang and 山本洋介 died in the war. Left Yueniang who's still 8-year old.
Yueniang ends up to stay with her grandmother-天蘭. Under the supervision of her grandmother, she's taught to cook the Baba & Nyonya dishes and sewing. She has the potential same as her mother-Juxiang. She is also resembled her mother and exceptionally beautiful when she's grown up. She leads the life of her mother, always been discriminated and ostracized by her family members. Yueniang puts up with all things in order to protect her grandmother.
Yueniang is a lady who doesn't want her life and decisions manipulated by others. She is really unwilling to accept all the things that her family members decided on her, this made her to decide to end her own life. But of course, she's stopped by her maid.
She's a very strong and tough girl. She managed to live in her own life although her life is tortured.
I like the character of Juxiang more. =)

Was jogging at Taman Titiwangsa early in the morning. I was just too lazy to run. Jogging ended up as Walking in the park. =) As I wanted to run, I could only run not more than 100m per round. I'll fell like dizzy and wanted to vomit. I wondered why. Guess I haven't been exercising for years! ;)

Actually I don't like exercising, as it'll make me sweat. I don't like the feeling of sweating. It's disgusting ); (p/s: I'm the one who yearned for slimming down all the time but I'm also the one who always lazy to get things done. *coy*)
We went out from home at 7.20am. It generally took 15mins to reach the Taman Titiwangsa, but the traffic jam took us about an hour or more to reach there. Irritating @.@

It's initially a cool morning until a scorching hot weather when we reached there =.=''
Jimmy and Terence were so good in sporting. They could jog for 2 rounds as Taman Titiwangsa is a really big park. I tried endeavor to complete my lap. XD
After the so-called jogging, we went to have our breakfast. I've ordered a plate of WanTan Mee which I don't eat the WanTan and a glass of Kopi-O beng. ;) It's so full but we ordered 3 slices of kaya+planta toast again. =.= We're chit-chatting until the sun burns our ass, we left.

Aww, tiring yes, but fun. Never had a healthy morning in ages. LOL but we've eaten so much as our calories that burned up while exercise were back. haha

My Days

Thursday * 05.03.2009
Followed Ginger back to her hometown once I've finished my class. We took 5pm bus to Segamat (called 32 Zhi) and reached at 7 something. When we reached, Ginger brought me to a so-called PASAR MALAM just beside her house. The pasar malam has only 2 stalls! HAHAHAHAHA
Stayed at her old house until midnight because she had something to do. After everything is done, we then went back to Tangkak, her new residency. I slept early that night because I was really tired and felt sleepy.


Friday * 06.03.2009
Went to Muar with Ginger's brother and her aunt. Her aunt wanted to buy a pair of shoes but end up with a Sembonia handbag. She chose many bags. She used almost 2 and more hours to get her favorite ones. This made the salesgirl became mad. She just simply spoke out. What a bad manner! Customers have the right to choose their favorite bags. After that, all of us went to a cate street. There are a lots of nice food but we were unfortunately had a bad dishes. We went to a park where assembled many monkeys. We fed them with some You Zha Guai, they're so excited. How cute and funny are they! Then we brought 'You Zha Guai' and 'Ice Lemon' to a beach. We sat on the beach until the sun set. What an enjoyable evening.


Saturday * 07.03.2009
Our result was released! Goddamn it. I got 2B & 3C+. I was shocked. That's not my expected result. But all were finality. Nothing could be changed anymore. And my FOA paper was also the same! Failed. I MUST GOT IT PASSED IN THIS SEM!
Noon, we went to Melaka. Ginger's brothers want to find a television set and home theater. When we reached, me and Ginger went to Pizza Hut to serve our starved tummy. Then we just met up with her aunt. But who knows, her aunt was standing in front of Pizza Hut to search for her food. LOL We went into pizza hut again. We all went back to Tangkak at about 8pm. It took about one hour to reach. (;

Sunday * 08.03.2009
We all woke up at 11.30am. Generally we planned to go Gunung Ledang but no one is awaken on time. So we cancelled. Ginger and I went to bus station to get tickets to KL on Monday but unfortunately it's sold out! I think because Monday is public Holiday. therefore we bought 5.30pm tickets. Luckily it still got the tickets. If not, we're forced to come back to KL on Tuesday and forced to skip a tutorial. The bus departed punctually, and arrived in Pudu Raya on time. I went back after having dinner with Ginger and friend. I slept early.

Monday * 09.03.2009
Woke up at 11.30am. Called Wk to have lunch with me. Actually planned to go Jusco for some greens, but he doesn't want to go. So I just let it go. After lunch, we separated. I went to buy some Fruits. have been waiting for so long for about 20 mins. Lotsa people were queueing up there. After that, I went to Carrefour express to see if there is any vege for me. But unluckily there has nothing! I bought a loaf of bread and then went back to home. I cleaned up my room. Sweep the floor. Mopped it. Mopped up the tables as well. After bathing, I started to watch Sweetness in the Salt until now!

28 February 09'

YO I'm back in KL

I went to check in at Miri airport early in the morning, who knows air asia changed their rules. We have to follow the seat number! OMG, unfortunately I sat at the Exit side. We cannot adjust the seat! this made me air-sick. damn it. #11A (don't ever try to check in early next time)

About 2 hours later, I reached at KL LCCT. After waiting for the luggage, Chiew Lee and I took Sky Bus and heading to KL Sentral. I Bus-sick again. Then, we took a taxi to go back to Wangsa Maju Section 2. There's traffic jammed, I almost vomited. But I could hold it until I back to my condo. Finally I vomited when I was brushing my teeth. );

Slept at 3pm and I got up at 830pm after taking a bath. I found that my kitchen was very messy and dirty. I wonder how those biatches use the kitchen. So after my dinner, I tried to clean my kitchen. *Of course for my own part only!* (:

It's almost 12 after I've cleaned my kitchen. Then I swept my room after chit-chatting with friends on MSN. I jumped into bed at 3am.
