The Yet-again resurrection of PamPamSoo

It's been (another)awhile since i last updated my blog.. I've once again resurrected my blog and i'm determined to keep it alive! Since now i'm living in Shanghai with my hubby, and most of the people i care and love are back in Malaysia or NOT in Shanghai, this is a great way to communicate to all of u who actually bothers to read about my life.

Since August 2010 to now, June 2011, ALOT has happened in my life. I quit my flying career with SIA, moved back to Malaysia and started planning for my wedding which happened on 25th Dec 2010. Here are some of the pictures that i really love (u might see them in my fb, but i can't help to repost these pictures that meant so much to me), and thanks to Ck San Photography who really did a wonderful job following us the whole day and capturing these precious moments!

In the morning with my family, waiting for the groom aka my hubby to arrive..

Happy family!!!! my sisters looked stunning!

My new family... my in-laws.... =)

I never really like Va-va-voom gowns, but I love this one! partly because its purple... XP

There are so many more pictures that i can't stop looking at but unfortunately, unable to post all of them up because its quite a pain to post pictures on blogspot especially when u are in CHINA (china banned blogspot as well! so we have to use VPN to access)..
After the best day of my life (so far), I have to start preparing to move up to shanghai to join my husband. It was a bitter sweet time as I have to leave my comfort zone and the people i love for the man i love to disembark on a different kind of life! Shanghai wasn't the city that I ever thought of living, nor starting a newly-married life. But so far, i'm glad I came!

This picture was taken in my parents' house before I leave for Shanghai.. =(

My sisters and my ex-bridesmaid in the airport waiting to SHOO me away..

I cried for like half an hour after I say goodbye to everyone in the airport.. Thank god i wasn't alone and hubby was right beside me. The flight was very uncomfortable as the aircraft is really small and it was a full flight.. (we will not wanna take southern china airline again!)

Starting a new life on a foreign land was quite a challenge for both of us. We have to adjust to one another's different living habits and also the 4 seasons in Shanghai which we never had back in Malaysia/ Singapore. There were ups and downs but we managed to go through it hand-in-hand. Marriage wasn't as scarry as what some people had told me. Marriage is beautiful. Marriage is a life-long learning experience.

Hubby and I while walking on the streets of Shanghai during the after winter days.. Not so much of Spring yet... (i look CACAT in this picture!)

p/s: More entries to come, promise! XP

Interesting people..

I was working my way up to Shanghai and it was a day flight..

As usual, smile on your face for my kind of job is a MUST YES thing.. Passengers were restless and hyper, many demands were attended..

-

An elderly couple (confirmed above age 50) looked at me and smile at me after I served them their hot chinese tea.. I strike a friendly conversation with them and got to know that they just came back from a holiday at Bali.. I told them, I wanna go Bali too but time doesn't permits..

-

After meal service, elderly man signaled me.. I went to them and they told me that they really enjoyed the flight and that me and my colleagues have provided an extraordinary good service and they trully appreciate it.. I told them thank you and felt so proud..

-

Elderly man told me they wanna take me as their god-daughter.. I AM PLEASENTLY SURPRISED!!! This is definitely something very very new for me.. They told me i spoke really good mandarin and that they really like me alot.. I told them i am really honoured..

-

Elderly lady passed me a piece of paper with her fine chinese writing with her house address, names of them both and their contact numbers.. I was still stunned with whats happening and dont really know how to react.. They told me to keep in touch with them and asked for my numbers.. I gave them my numbers and also email address and she said that she can ask her daughter to drop me an email as they are going to Shanghai to visit her.

-

I went back to work with the piece of paper on my hand.. Delighted.. I've never felt so appreciated since I started this work.. I am thrilled that now I have god-parents from CHINA.. wahahahaha.. But after much thoughts, I decided to go back to them and give them my malaysia address.. They told me they love to write and wouldn't mind to write letters to me.. COOL!!!

-

We briefly talked about our family and both of them have a pair of children (a male and a female)who are older than me and happily married. At least, I know this is not another passenger who's trying to match make me with their son. Phew.. They even showed me the picture of my new 'sister' and invited me to go to their house to stay, if I ever travel to that part of China.

-

It was really cool and although I have came back from Shanghai and resting in singapore now, I am still excited about the whole thing. But I dont really know what I should do.. Should I wait for them to call or should i take the initiative to contact them.. Since they wanted me to become their god-daughter, i think I should just stick around and see what happens..

-

I have CHINESE god-parents.. I have a reason to go CHINA for holiday.. wee....

-

p/s: I am still stunned by the fact that the self-proclaimed King of Pop, the late Michael Jackson has passed away due to cardiac arrest.. I'm not a big fan of him but definitely appreciate some of his music works.. He was only 50.. He achieved so much, yet hasn't achieve many other things that he can in the future.. This teaches me a lesson, money is not everything and it definitely can't buy u life. Whats the point of having so much money, but u can't bring them with you when u pass away? Rest in peace, Michael Jackson..

Farewells..

NOTE: If you are not interested in my personal life and hates pictures, pls ignore this post as this is gonna be a super long post filled with boring-to-you but really cherish-ta-ble pics and awesome moments days before I leave Malaysia for good..

Last week was just jam-packed for me as Wednesday was my last day of work in Boustead and I have to finish my work before I finally say goodbye to my desk. However, thursday and friday nights were just awesome and I attended 2 so called 'farewell' dinners which really make me tired for the whole weekend.. I guess age is just catching up.. haha..

Thursday night was a karaok night and it was organized by my friends who I got to know through my sales job. They are just a bunch of crazy people but down-to-earth and really nice awesome people.. We cracked our voices in the newly-opened Neway Karaok which was located in Centro Klang and I tell you.. The food (Buffet Dinner) was much more better than some of the buffets you can find in KL city..

As I have warned you earlier, you may skip reading this post if you are not the picture type of people and just dont bother to know who i knew in this earth.. Do not complain that this post is too long and boring..

Here Goes:

We booked a room which can accomodate more than 10 people and the songs are projected to the screen which really wow-ed me.. I've never been to a projected karaok room.. the best was just a flat-screen TV which have WOW-ed me already.. However, the selections of songs in English still need alot of improvement..
Me and Kenny were the first to arrive and he was my driver of the night.. We happen to stay at the same street.. So, not nice to drive in 2 cars and waste the energy of the world right?
Black sofa.. cool and elegant..
The buffet.. They basically change the style of cooking almost every half-an hour... I've tried like 4 types of fish in different styles in just one night! First was normal sweet-n-sour fish which I am almost guilty of finishing the whole dish.. Its just too nice.. can u blame me for being selfish? Blame the cook for making it so nice! Then, they served Grilled Salmon.. which makes me drool too.. Then they have chinese-style-steamed fish.. oh perfect!! And after that, they serve some black sauce fish which I was too full to even try a piece.. hahaha..
The desert and appetizer counter located at the center of the small buffet hall.. They even have 'hundred year old egg', hams, salad..From the east to the west.. How thoughtful are these cooks..

The sushi counter which Jessica will kill to have it.. But too bad she wasn't invited.. Basically you can choose anytype of 'dressing' you want for your sushi-s and you can only have 3 sushis at one time..
The couple.. Gary and his boo.. Sorry but I really can't remember her name.. It was my first time meeting her k..
Apologize for my bad photograpy skills..
Eric trying to attract the attention of everyone..
Darry and his cousin.. the cousin who doesn't sing at all throughout the whole session.. how odd..
Cherlyn.. Someone that I can count on in times of troubles.. She's like our 'tai kah che' for the group..
This picture was taken when Shin Wae and me were singing our hearts out.. Thats why my mouth is widely opened..
The controls were pretty confusing.. As you can see.. Ivy is having a tough time trying to get the songs she wants..
Kenny.. Singing almost every songs we chose...
Eric, who has a soar throat even before we start..

My lovely now-ex-colleague Ryan the Teddy bear who was so nice to drop by..
Cherlyn who was really tired after few songs and pls note that all of them came after work..
Shin Wae.. The Pretty one..
Ivy, the pretty one.. thanks for coming dear.. and thanks for the surprise!!
Me and Eric.. The nagging one..

That sums up my thursday 26-06-2008 night and I really miss the food (also the fellowship!!).. I miss all the fishes and all the dessert!! I live to eat k!!! And it was really nice of them to take their time out after work just to make this a memorable one for me.. Thanks guys!! And unfortunately, I didn't managed to take pictures with everyone in the room.. *Sob Sob*

Anyway, on friday night, the YAF (young adults fellowship) organized a farewell dinner for Cheryl, Joy and me who are leaving to Singapore, Australia and Singapore. Cheryl who got a really good offer left Malaysia for Singapore on Sunday and really thank God that at least I have someone I know in singapore that I can count on for my spiritual walk.. However, things are even nicer for Joy who will be leaving to Australia to get married with her honey and live happily ever after.. As for me.. You know the story..

The farewell dinner was held in a buffet restaurant called 'Halia' located in Sime Darby convention Centre near Hartamas and their concept is pretty interesting.. They only have soup, bread, appetiser and dessert on the buffet table..As for the main dish wise, the waiters will come to your table holding 2 sticks of grilled chicken, lamb, beef or any other kind of edible meat and seafood at one time.. If you want the grilled chicken that one waiter is holding, you tell him, and he will leave you wit 2 pieces of meat on your plate without you walking and going through the hassle of grill-ing your own food..

The setting of the tables.. Simple and nice..
The sauces they provide to go with the meat..
The desserts.. Oh.. the chocolate cake.. I miss you..
My 'Bra-thers'.. Wei Loong the cheeky one and Brian the blur one..

The whole group of us together with Pastor John and wife... All young and vibrant!!!
Me with Sheila.. She's so cute and adorable..
Cheryl, Me, Sheila and Grace.. We were trying to pose like Models and obviously we failed..

All in all, I really enjoyed both the events and it was really sweet of my friends to organize this and take their precious time out just to be a part of this.. All these will be sweet memories that I can only remember in my heart and also written down in my blog.. It makes it even harder for me to leave but I know God has better plans for me in Singapore.. Thank you guys that are featured above for this awesome time and pls do keep in touch k!
