I've been sinful.

1 down, 1 more to go.


So, I've decided to revive my blog with one "kick-ass" post.

Geez, I'm trying to make it up here! Coaching a team isn't as easy as I thought! Boy, not to mention I found out 3 days before my actual midterms that I have 2 papers to sit. And n between that, I was juggling work, uni and being a good girlfriend all together at one go!



PHEW. I know, I know. No excuse.

I, honestly, think I do deserve some credits here.



But it was all worth it when I receive my pay and went right away to buy The Sex Shoe. What made me even more determine than ever to get that shoe is when (besides trying the heels for like the 1000th time. I bet the salespeople in the shoe remember me.) I found out it's the one and ONLY last pair they have here in Malaysia!



Last pair. ONE and ONLY left. One chance. That's it!




"Maaaa!!! I don't care already, I'm going to buy this now!"


and so, I proudly took the heels to the counter which I had been clutching it against my chest for the last 5 minutes. Never been so sure and clear of what I really want before in my 20 years of breathing, I made my way to the counter.. with my chin up. Took my purse out and slapped the money on the counter.


Okay okay.

I may have exaggerated a little on the whole chin up and slapping the money thingamajig on the counter, my mom would have me hang upside down the ceiling fan if I ever do that. That would be rude.

I don't want to portray myself as some psychotic shopper here now.




So instead, I walked towards to counter with my face glowing and a super duper wide smile spread across my face as I felt a rush of adrenaline and feeling so in control at that moment... I got to admit, my heart did ache a tiny bit when I handed over to the lady my money.


The bloody shoe cost me one paycheck and it's not even wearable! Okay, I can't believe that I'm complaining now. But seriously, put me in that shoe for 5 minutes, you can see my legs wobbling like I had not eaten for 3 months.


T_________T



AHHHH. Things we girls do and sacrifice for.. All in the Name of Beauty!


I've been sinful.


*gulp*

'cause I have just caught my eyes onto another new pair of shoe... which cost a bomb too.


-_________-"



ANYWAY, looks like I've been drifted away from my main purpose of blogging today..




Victim A'la Mode @ MIST Club, Bangsar.


Let me fill you in before I start.. here's a little introduction on what's the event all about!

"A collaboration between HELP College and SML Fashion Academy, Victim a la Mode is a fundraising fashion show featuring the latest collections of Rebellz, Giordano and the work of SML Fashion Academy's talented young designers, including up and comer, Julia Leong."

I've attended Victim A'la Mode about a month (No, wait. Make that two.) back. We're supposed to be there to cheer for a friend of mine, Julia Leong since she'll be having her showcase. I personally adore her designs, so I was actually pretty darn excited to see it for myself since I've missed out on MIFA.






The "jaw-dropper" dress. Stunning isn't it? (:




Another gorgeous piece by Rebellz.

Not much fashion runway photos though. Fret not, you can check 'em out over HERE from Tongue in Chick updates of Victim A la Mode.

The fashion show was about an hour long. After the show, Sammie and I went over to the backstage to congratulate Julia on her show.



With Julia Leong who did an awesome job.




Then, it was time to party upstairs.



Hehe, girls will always be girls. We had our own solo shoot by Jason Ong who was very nice enough to layan us girls.



Drey and her sexy back.




Brey and her sexy python dress!









with them girls.




Ezra. Drey.




Had a short catch up with Josh Lim and met his friend.



Derrick, King, Ju Nn (One of the designers of Rebellz), Melissa C and Marcia.






Ladies of the night.




Going a little nutty over here!






with Estee, Elena, Brey, Drey and Marcia.







After a few glasses of beer and whatnot, we decided to head over to KL for more partying session!


and guess who was there too???






Lindy goes wild! Hahaha, it was great seeing this woman since I haven't being seeing her for quite some time already.

*hint hint*




Crazy Helena was there too. She was telling her friend from UK this when she introduced us,

"This girl here... is CRAZYYYY! Craziest woman!"

-_____-





Some of you might know this, King was my senior back in high school. And being my senior, whenever he sees me drinking in a pub or clubbing, he'll go without failure,

"AND WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE? Aren't you too young for this???"


*cough*





Nisrin!




and that very much summarize the awesome night. Hehe, that's what you get when you practically slugged down shots of champagne all night long.



Alright, there you have it!

I should get back to my books now IF I want to party tonight. Because it's....





Guess-Who's Birthday!!!

& kids, this is what people do when they had a slightly overdose of Hoegaarden.. they tend to start talking to statues or er.. a lamp.






(Haha, you should be grateful that I did not upload the videos!)



Alright. Time to drink some hardcore Brands' Chicken Essence and pump some brain cells now!

With love,
RachelChong.

On Autopilot mode, again.

Dearest Love of my life,









I'm sorry but I think I would have to leave you for a while. I'm sorry for not letting you know or leaving any clues and disappeared. I know I have left you hanging there alone in all those miserable sleepless nights.


I've been far too busy with studies, work and cheer that they're demanding too much time and attention from me.


Bear in mind that I still have you in my heart, I'm still the very same girl who fell in love with you the moment she met you last 2 years. But I guess, I just need some space for now to sort out my busy schedule and some time alone to myself.


Don't take it the bad way baby. It's not your fault and don't you ever, question yourself why is this happening between us.



I'll be back soon. I'll make it up to you, I promise.

I promise.



With love,
Rachel Chong, your faithful blogger.




ps : I'll update real soon once I get my connection fixed. Pronto. Hehe.

Birthday Cakes and Wishes.

Listening to : Kings of Leon - Use Somebody.

So,

since it's the 29th of September, I'll blog about Audrey's mini celebration last night. Before I go on, I just want to make a BIGGGG shout out to Audrey Tan;



"HAPPY 21ST BIRTHDAYYYYY BABBBBBYYYY!!!!!"
followed by tons of sloppy kisses and cuddly hugs.







Currently, my favorite picture of us. Hehe, so comelkan?





The few of us got together to celebrate Drey's pre-birthday celebration over at Picadilly. It was actually a super random last minute plan. Initially, we were there just for dinner. But the rest came later, so we had beer and a round of shisha.

I personally like Picadilly because you don't find a place that serves food and more food, beer and shisha all together under one roof. Pretty good.







Pin and The Tower.





Audrey and her "cake". We couldn't get her a cake so we got her a Banana split instead, hehe.





Make a wish.







The three of us.

Speaking of Birthdays,

On the 26th of September,


it was Andrew Wong 21st Birthday Celebration!



Before that, 10pm, I heaved a sigh of frustration and relief as I've finally got my stuff sorted out and errands done. Rushed back from KL and...


..... oh boy, I really need that beer -__-



The guys sold me with the idea of having tons of booze all night long till the sun rises up the next day, poker sessions, food and more food and etc.

Later on, Andrew kept apologizing to me,


"I'm so sorry Ray, but you're the only girl. The rest left early already."

"Whuttt? It's only 11pm and this is the time where the party usually starts! Oh well, chill la. I think I'm pretty used to it when I'm the only girl around. Heh!"




I remember at this point when I walked into the room where the boys were having their poker session and Doug and the other guys went,

"So rach, you're on your 2nd Carlsberg?"

"Yeap yeappp."




45 minutes later..



"Gawd, you've already finished your 2nd one?"

"Yeap, on my 4th one now actually.."

"PHWOOAAAARRRRR!"




-______-


Is it me or what? Or it's just these boys are not used having a girl drinking like that? I'm no alcoholic, btw.


Some pictures I managed to snagged off Facebook!





The few of us.




Cheers to the birthday boy! Woot woot.






The Aftermath.







There were more in the fridge, mind you.
Not forgetting, pure hard liquor.




Caked-face!









and lastly, our family portrait.

That's KamKam (don't bother asking us why the name. Honestly, we don't know why either!) and us. A gift I gave Andrew during his birthday back when I'm 15.


HAHHAHAHHA, I was young back then where soft toys were cool to give as a gift back in those days.

Oh boy, how nostalgic. Anyway, hope you had an awesome one which I know you had, judging by how stoned you were at the end. *wink*





Victim A'la Mode, coming up next!!

Fireworks and Loud music.

Listening to :The Dandy Warhols - You were the Last High.

I had a blast..




working the other night for the Arthur's Day 250 Remarkable Years. Bumped into tons of familiar faces. From Marcus Chan to Dixon to Josh Lim to Brian to Alvin DJ Goldfish.



Goldfish : "RAAAACHEELLLL!! Drink drink up!"

moi : "CRAAAA-ZYYYY ah. I'm working! Ey, no no. Cannot."

Goldfish : "I'll hide you. QUICK!"

moi : *gulp* damn.



98% majority of the crowd were all dressed according to the dressing code: black party chic.

I was stationed over at the VIP area (Gold Zone) and then later on, was stationed over at the Silver Zone, which was even better. I got myself a much much more clearer and pretty darn closer view of the Black Eyed Peas.





I got to say, I was having a super hard time working.





I was more like partying+working the whole time. It sure makes me feel guilty when I find myself grooving to the beats and on the other hand, my colleagues and agents were all pulling off the serious/sour face.


Met a couple of new people while at work. I guess people tend to be more friendlier than their usual self when you're out partying and having a good time huh.

Oh not forgetting, all the free flow Guinness you can slug down your throat to quench your thirst which is unfortunately, only available at the VIPs' corner.






One of the random people caught me in the midst of grooving to the beats of the BEP came up to me and went,

"I can't help but notice that you're the ONLY girl here having a good time (while working). I guess the rest are not much a B. E.P fans huh?"

"Haha, I knowww rightttt."

"Oh btw, I'm working."

"Oh sure. You ARE working. That's all I can see now."

"HAHA!I AM working."








Black Eyed Peas was the ultimate bomb.


They sang most of their songs from "Where is the Love" to "Don't Phunk with my heart", to their latest hits "Meet me Half Way" (which is currently stuck in my head), "Boom Boom Pow", "Let's get it started" and of course, how can they ever leave out the best to end the wonderful eventful night - "I Gotta Feeling".

Fergie did a solo performance too on "Big Girls Don't Cry". They also played some good tunes from R&B to trance to heat up the party. I must say, they were pretty darn awesome.


You can imagine how blown away was I when they sang "I Gotta Feeling..". I started singing, silly dancing, booty shaking and rapping with the group of people around me. The crowd went crazy with people standing on their seats and started dancing and downing their Guinness in their hand.


The night was wrapped up with a wonderful 5 minutes display of fireworks. Obviously, I had my eyes drawn towards them. I LOVE fireworks. I remember back when I was younger, I used to wish upon 'em.


Haha, boy, it was sure a good good night!


Like I've mentioned over at my previous post, I think I've said "TO ARTHUR!" approximately a hundred times last night.



No pictures were taken though since we were strictly there to work.

-______-"


But, seeing the BEP performing live was definitely a worth one.







Exhausted me after work.

T'was one memorable night!






------------------------------------------------------------------------------------




Some time back,

got together for some pint of Guinness with Andrew and Ivan since I've not seen these boys for quite some time already.






Andrew Wong.



Ivan wong.

We met back in church, we were classified as the "naughty" ones and that's why we clicked so well. Haha, it's been 5 years. It sure feels so surreal that it has been 5 years. How time flies!






Later that,

it was Cavells with the bunch.



The only picture I got that night. Hahahaha!





Alright,

MORE coming up on the next post!

Sweet dreams.

Dimmed my lights as early as 10pm tonight, told myself to turn in early since I’ll be out and about tomorrow morning running errands but certain thoughts made me toss and turn in bed thinking about the choices that I have to make…



I know I'll hate myself for this; but I can't help but ponder to myself... how have you been lately?

How now brown cow?





x,
Ray.

Still absolutely Post-B.E.P-syndrome.

Listening to : Black Eyed Peas - Meet me Half Way.

after work and overdosed of the Black Eyed Peas.
xx`



"Took my heart to the limit, and this is where i'll stay.
I can't go any further then this
I want you so bad it's my only wish."

-Black Eyed Peas-



I think I said "TO ARTHUR!" approximately a hundred times last night.



Will blog on it.

For now, time to get someone (I've known since 15) pissed drunk!

Woot woot.

Moonlight and romance.

Few days back
(don't know which day was it, pardon my short-term memory!),


got a call from Aaron asking if I'm interested for another round of karaoke session.


WHY NOT?






Hehe, I'm a fan of karaoke la. Can't help it. I get to show off my singing skills (ahem!) and dancing talent together. That's why you'll see me selecting songs from Taylor Swift to M2M to Spice Girls!

I love it when the girls and I get up and dance to "Stop" by the Spice Girls. Hahaha, good times good times.


Don't get me wrong, not all girly songs la. I did select songs ranging from Guns N' Roses to Bon Jovi.





This time around was with Charis, Jem, Aaron, Derrick and few more friendly people. (:

The downfall of the whole thing was.. no one stood up with me and dance to "Stop" by the the Spice Girls.


-________-"


Self-layan but failed miserably.


*sniff*







Oh well, the recent LARA (Lindy, Aubrey, moi and Audrey) outing and karaoke session was the ultimate bomb. Haha. Will blog about it once I get the pictures from Lindy.








On the way there!






The "Chong"s.





Charis and boyfriend, Jeremy.










-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------





The other night ago,

got a call from Wei Ian to go for our round 2 of beer session. So, it was Jeremy, Ian and I over at Eckywobee.

Almost as crazy as the last session of beer we had. Only this time, we did not ran away and not pay for the lok-lok we had.


-_____-


Geez, this is what people does when they're high. In my terms, fucking high and crazy to do it.

*shifty eyes*



All in all, it was one good session.

Lots of catch ups and updates. Not forgetting, juicy gossips from them boys. And not excluding, I laughed so hard that my face hurts and I nearly pee in my pants. Oh boy, I think I do have a bladder problem when it comes to beer.

*cough*


The rest of it, I know, you know, we know lah.

Rest assured, we did not end up sleeping at the bar though.
















I had 3 times in the row one whole glass of beer. It was.. torturing.





Take your guess.








The three of us.




And lastly, the night ended with good ol' lok-lok at the neighborhood.




Yum yum.






---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Yuin's 17th Birthday @ Laundry, The Curve; Bar Mitzvah & Shalome, TTDI.


Last last Friday,

it was Yuin's 17th Birthday Celebration right at Laundry, The Curve. Managed to drop by together with Nisrin and Derrick for a while before I head off to Yin Hoe's brother's newly opened pub called "Bar Mitzvah" at NEO Damansara, Damansara Perdana.







Nissy and I.









The Birthday kid, Yuin who I adore.















Us together with the Birthday girl, Yuin.





At the end of the night, you'll get....



110% KO-ed!

Haha, hope you had a great one munchkins!




Ley vin came and picked me up and we went over to Bar Mitzvah for the launching of it.
The night ended later at Shalome for a pint of Kilkenny.





Before I sign off,


Who's going for the Arthur's Day 250 years Celebration tomorrow at Sunway Lagoon?



I'll be working, so I'll see you guys there.






*hums "I gotta feeling... woo woo~"*






Till then,

have a great weekend loves!

Hot Chocolate on a Monday night.

Listening to : Armin van Buuren feat Van Velzen - Broken Tonight (Original Mix).

It was a Monday night.

He made us two mugs of hot chocolate and I picked the movie for the night.
As I was sipping onto my warm hot chocolate, he went and put the DVD on and dimmed the lights.

I remember it was raining cats and dogs outside.
It was getting a little cold, so he went to his room to brought out a big blanket and threw it over me and I snuggled under the blanket.

While watching the movie, it took me a thought or two to reminiscence laughter and to summon guilt.



Oh, what have I put myself into this time?
