Mid Autumn Festival

中秋节快乐!

自己独自在家, 令我想起往年的中秋气氛, 热闹得很.

大家会在婆婆家聚会, 一同吃中秋晚饭, 有说有笑, 不意乐乎.

吃饱后, 我们就会到外亭点灯笼, 吃月饼兼赏月.

最后, 大家会提着灯笼, 在婆婆住宅区的范围内闲逛几圈..

点灯笼, 它熄了, 再点.. 还有, 每一年少不了我的"火烧灯笼", 真过隐..

中秋节也是我们玩火的大好时机, 点燃一列列蜡烛, 好漂亮..

每一年我们也会烧到手, 堂弟妹们 会闹着大笑, 姑姑会叫我们在夜间静些..哈哈.

小妹妹则会在妈妈身边, 静观我们玩火, 希望今晚她可以陪同他们一起玩吧!



那么外婆,表兄妹, 他们呢? 在中秋夜前夕, 我们就已他们痛快玩一晚了!


中秋一直以来都是我们大家庭一同度过的快乐时光..家好月圆? 嘻嘻



月到中秋分外明 , 但这里的月光好像显得额外孤独..



啊,好思念..

ps: Ma sent me a virtual moon cake! =)

Oh, weather!

From The Age Online, September 12, 2008.

Brace yourselves: Gale-force winds to buffet state

  • Dan Bray
  • September 12, 2008 - 12:47PM

Victorians are being warned to brace for wild weather, with gale-force winds set to batter the whole of south-eastern Australia over the weekend and into next week.

- Strong gusts expected
- Dust storms possible
- Little rain likely in drought-affected areas

Northerly gusts of over 100kmh, capable of bringing down trees and damaging crops, are expected to peak on Monday, according to Weatherzone's Tom Saunders.

Dust storms are likely to hit drought-affected areas - but those areas are unlikely to receive much badly needed rainfall.

Most rain is forecast to fall in coastal and mountain areas.

The Bureau of Meteorology has issued a severe weather warning and recommends people secure loose objects near houses and beware of fallen power lines, in line with with State Emergency Services warnings.

The Bureau has also issued a coastal wind warning for all Victorian coastal areas. Seas may reach over four metres offshore, with coastal swells of over three metres expected in the state's west.

But I need to go out this weekend. I need that book.. Hmm.. hopefully the winds subside tomorrow..




PS: I suddenly worry when I read about Hurricane Ike churning towards southeast Texas, I pray that you'll be safe always.

Unpredictable

The sail,

cruising on smoothly

the waves rough but

the winds; a complement

the stars, beacon;

the guides at night.


The dock within sight.



Then wham,

it hit something

its majestic sail wavers

the winds cease

the stars, beacon flicker



while the dock remains at sight

it grows fainter

the complacency

a fallacy.

Unbelievable.

I just checked my phone credit.

I had the shock of my life. *gasps*

I thought... I never knew..

Omg, this time I've used too much. Way too much.



But to cut back on those calls, I simply can't.. I don't think I can..


Then have to save more on food + groceries + others lor.

Trade off. >.<

Okay LMS, next week, watch out on your cash outflow!



ps: Ikat perut.

Merdeka and Pei Wen's Birthday

Merdeka day was a fun-filled, crazy, and of course a patriotic day for us, bringing the Malaysian flag all the way to Federation Square ok!

hahah All pictures are in facebook and kindly visit Jia Yen's blog for more.


HAPPY 19TH BIRTHDAY PEI WEN, MERDEKA BABY!!


Hope you enjoyed yourself, it's been some time since we let our hair downs, maybe way too much, but it was fun!

May your dreams come true ~ =D



******

Something dodgy happened last night when I was on my way home. But nah. Not worth mentioning. Ought not to get near drunkards.

******

Met Jian for our tram date today, thanks dear, for waiting with me!
Appreciate it lots..

*****

I sort of got addicted to cutting my fringe and cut it twice in a day and didn't stop when I should have today.
It was quite damaging but sigh, no use crying over cut-ed hair.
But still, it was fun. XD Just have to bear with it for awhile.

****

Here's following Jia Yen:

Guess this blog will go on hiatus for a week or two. 5 deadlines consisting of Macro, ATA, BPA, Gen Wealth assignments and a presentation coming up! >.<


If there's anything at all, just drop a message at the chatbox!


Till then
Take care,
MeiShan
