Coming home ... and THANKS everyone !!!

I'm coming home!!!
Can't believe it's been 7 weeks!!!

Yesterday, I read again all my entries here.
Remember back the first time we arrived here,
~ our first snow
~ my cooking :goreng pisang, cengkodok pisang, nasi lemak without lemak, nasi pattaya
~ our first chicago city trip
~ my first time wearing a dress after a long time
~ our first fireplace
~ our first fire alarm
It's been an adventure of a lifetime for me.

At first, it's been hard for me.
Bcuz this is my first time to be away from my family and friends.

But THANKS to everyone who've been reading this blog.
Bcuz somehow it does make me feel better.

You managed to make me happy and put a smile on my face, during my loneliness and boring nite here.
You know who you are ... THANKS !!!

3. Do the "Snow Dance" ... (hahaha... I dunno what's wrong with me back there ... hahaha)



4. "Play dead in the snow" ... Seema shot me ... uhuhu



5. "SNOW ANGEL" ... hehe ... actually I lay down on the snow trying to make a snow angel, and it turns out ... not bad :D







It is really a nice scenery ... beautiful !!!
Once in a lifetime experience.
And for me, once is enough. I'm ready to go back to my nice and warm weather :D





Bowling last Sunday ... and I had a good game !!!

It feels soo good to play bowling.

Laptop still down ... and V-day

First, Happy Birthday to Mak and Kati ... on Feb,13th.
Too bad, my laptop is down. Couldn't wish my mom Happy birthday online :(

2nd, my laptop is down.
I managed to solve my firewall problem, thanks to Fendy.
But still having trouble detecting wireless, and one of the people here try to take a look. And "BERLAGAK PANDAI NAK MAMPUSSS!!" ... kalo tatau, janganlah buat apa2.
And wanna know what he actually did? He UNINSTALL my wireless network adapter DRIVER !!!

Now, I can't even check the settings, because my laptop cannot even detect the wireless device inside. What a @#@&^$@%$$#&^$@#^% !!!

And it's Valentine Day.
They bring a lot of cookies, chocs, brownies, etc.
And they even give me and Seema V cards, and a lot of chocs and sweets.




THANKSS !!! Feels so warm, yet it's winter :D

Sad story ... virus attack my laptop :(

Uhuhuhu ...

I think it's the virus.
I did a scan virus last Saturday, and after I move one virus to the quarantine, my laptop can't detect any wifi nearby.

Maybe it effect the firewall, bcuz when I tried to open the firewall settings, it give me this error message, "Due to an udentified problem, can't display the Window Firewall Setings". &@#%$$&^%@#

Anyone can gimme any advice on how to fix this?

I tried few options:

1. System Restore - but it seems I don't have have any restore point. (Demmit, never bothered about that thing ever since I got my laptop)

2. Command prompt - I tried to reset the firewall settings from the command prompt, but it give me "Service is not included" (Again ... &@!@$##%#!@)

I sms my friend, a computer genius, but .... nope ... nothing.
At the end, I finish using all my handphone credit. (Another ... @#&%$@#%^#@&^$@#)

So, no internet ... and minimum credit on my handphone (Eirna, thanks to reload my prepaid ... although, more amount would be better :D ) ... can't wait to go home!!!

And, now I can say this magic word, "NEXT WEEK, I'm coming home !!!"

p.s: Was thinking to upload more cool picz from Aquarium we went last Saturday, but ... hmm, let's all pray I get my laptop fix in near future ... uhuhuhu...

Bad SNOWSTORM ... schools and offices are closed





A loott of snow and strong wind !!!
It is really bad, everything are closed and people just stay inside.
From the news, it is considered as one of the worst snowstorm since 1999.

Just look at how many inches of snow we got until today's evening. (Based on my footstep picz below) :D
I think it's about 14 inches of snow ...

Company party at Westin Hotel ... with me wearing a dress after a loooong time :D

Yeap, it's winter ... and what a right time for me to wear a dress after a long, long time. Huhh...


Here, me and Seema getting ready.
Elaine and her partner, Steve pick us up. It is soo nice of them.


From left, Matt (Marsha's son), Marsha, me and Elaine.
They got to bring a guest for the party, and they decided to bring their son, mother, daughter. It is sooo nice.


From left, Seema, me, Stella and her daughter.
Thanks to Stella who helped us to get the dress.


From left, Izabel, Seema, Michelle, me and Carmen.
They're really great, and it is a fantastic nite to sit with them.


From left, Michelle and Izabel.
They are our girlz gang in the office.
And to guys who's reading this, I think Michelle is still single..ehem, ehem .. :D
Anyone wanna me get her number?


There are no speeches from the CEO, no party game, no lucky draw.
They just dance all night long.
They pulled me to the dance floor.
Whole my life I never realised this, but I am a really bad dancer. Hehe. It seems like I was walking with my right hand and leg moving at the same time.
It's really that bad, so I just giveup.

And at the end of the nite, Seema get an admirer. Or maybe you can call it a stalker.
He's been trying to get close to Seema.
If Seema's boyfriend is reading this ... I managed to take the guys picz, if you wanna punch his face ... hehe


And it is the end of the nite.
The party is over.
And how does a bunch of drunk girls (except me) taking their last picture together?


It was a reallllyy great night, after all.
And 3 weeks left for me to go home ... YIPPPEE !!!
