Finally! The first semester of 2011/2012 had officially ended around 10-ish a.m (for me lah that is) and the first thing Rachel had said to me when I walked up to her:

"Kati mang? Jadi nda program lagik?"

Translation: What's up girl? How's our program later on?

The answer to the bonus question: DEFINITELY ON!

So basically, the girls (Rachel and Martina), except Priscilla (who couldn't joint us because her relative is in town so she has to go back early) head to BDC for brunch. The three of us had kolok mee. Yummers!

After brunch we head to Everrise BDC with the intention of going to the saloon for (hair wash) which was located somewhere inside there. I forgot the name of the saloon, but the reason why I brought them there was because I went there once for wash and blow dry, the service was well done. However, since we saw there were many customers there (last minute hair done I presume :p), we decided to go to Popular where Rachel bought a cute folder to be given for her 15-year-old cousin who recently just passed her PMR with flying colours. Our original mission: FAILED. So we left Everrise BDC to look for another saloon. Our initial destination was 4th mile as I remembered there was a saloon not far from Food Avenue. Then again, I remembered the saloon across Expert BDC where offers RM 20 for wash and cut (I was in it for wash and cut) so we went there. And oh my! The service was wonderful. The three of us feel so relaxed after the wash (and cut for me). And the price was reasonable too. RM 10 for wash; RM 20 for wash and cut. I think that is the promotion price. I don't know how are the ordinary price for wash or wash and cut, but as the service there was really good, I will definitely be going there again. And so will Rachel and Tina :D

Rachel waiting for her turn :)

My not-so-new-hair. Well, this is my Christmas hair most definitely!

Next up!

We went to Tabuan for last minute Christmas shopping. Well, it was Rachel who was doing her shopping. Mine will be tomorrow *jumps for joy*. *I shall leave the minor details behind* If last week she managed to buy a cute black dress which looks adorable on her *winks*, this time she bought one short pants and a cardigan. Lucky girl. Tomorrow she'll be heading back to her hometown, Betong with her brother. So this last minute shopping is definitely necessary. For her. Haha. While we were looking around, I suddenly crave for Swee Kang's ABC; hence the next place we went to was of course Swee Kang for ABC. We also had rojak as a side order. Eat some more, mana tidak makin bulat :p.

Feeling refreshed after the delicious food we had, as it was getting late, we decided to head back to Unimas but before that, I took the girls a tour at the city of Kuching as both of them are not from Kuching (yes, I do took my 'duty' as a Kuchingite seriously :D). And while on our way to Unimas, we managed to make a bucket list to be fulfilled within another three semesters left for our study. I think I should list it here so I could remember and fulfilled the bucket list (and I hate broken promises hence I think that listing it here is important. And I'm not jinx-ing for it not to happen. In fact, I hope that we can do all, if not, almost all of the list here.

To bring the girls (especially Rachel and Tina) to Friendship Park. And if possible, took photos there. I've had my fair share taking photos there and I want to share that joy with them :D
Steamboat! So far, we only do brunches and lunches. For this semester, we initially wanted to go for steamboat before the study week, but since May is sick while Victoria is in Bintulu, it has not been executed yet. However, the three of us planned to do it when the next semester starts, as soon as all of us are settled down. D11, I'll be coming for you!
To stay overnight at Four Points or Hilton hotel (either one will do for me). This is actually Rachel's idea. Sounds crazy but hey, how often can you stay at a hotel with your friends right? At least one night pun jadilah says Rachel. Haha. Chel Chel.
To eat at this Dayak restaurant recently open at Jalan Simpang Tiga. Another crazy idea from Rachel and this time Tina tags along with this. The thing that attracts them to eat there? There's gonna be Dayak food. Tsk tsk. Well, we will do that someday aite? ;)
To go for a stroll at Waterfront at night. Told them it's beautiful at night in the Waterfront and of course, they are intrigued and interested. Waterfront, we'll be coming soon!
Sushi bonanza! This is an event done by the Sushi King, which Rachel, Priscilla and I wanted to go but didn't manage last October. Nevertheless, this event took place twice a year, April and October. So maybe, if possible, we want to go for it next semester in April.
A road trip. As we are from different places, (Priscilla and I - Kuching, Rachel - Betong, Tina - Julau, May and Victoria - Bintulu), we are curious of what other places had to offer. And what better way to explore rather than making a road trip to their places starting from Kuching up to Bintulu. If this really happen, it will be one heck of a road trip I'm sure.

Tina and I at Allamanda. She was one of the people who were involved in charity car wash yesterday. And she was the one who cleaned my baby!

Well, we managed to think up to there (or maybe I only remember up to that. Sorry girls). Nevertheless, it's a start. We might come up with more wishes for our bucket list as time passes by and as I hope as time passes by, our friendship will grow stronger and we'll grow together in this process of growing. I'm grateful for having wonderful course mates, now, they no longer only be known as my course mates, they are also my friends, who had also witness a fair share of my ups and downs and vice versa. Though there might be times I may be wondering what the heck am I doing in finance, but being with them, having their support all the way makes me remember that,

"It does not matter where your destination will be. What matters the most are the people that stays with you along the process of getting there."

So yeah. I am blessed with each one of them. And I hope that I am a blessing to them too.

From L - R: Priscilla, Martina, Victoria and Rachel. Proud to call them my girls :)

Love,

Marcy,
Xoxo.

Finally got the guts to text him, and asking for his time to talk to him. Simply because I want the truth from him. I'm tired of assuming. What if I assume wrong? Doesn't that mean that I am actually making a stigmata on him which is not true? But I am afraid that what I assume is right. Because if it is right, it means that he belongs to her now. I no longer have a chance to even get to know him better than I did over the summer holidays. However, even if the truth hurts (assuming that they are together), doesn't mean my life stops there, right? And I told Hany that I don't want to end my 2011 with regrets; bad enough I'm ending this year as a single lady (haha, jk. I'm not whining. I'm just not used to the fact that I am single this time). If I end my year with assuming something wrong (or right), it will be my first regret ever since I had been breathing for these 21 years. So yeah. And that was the last response that I got from him. Now, I'm waiting for the 'call' that might/might not happen. I say 'might not' because he said to me that he is not sure when is he free enough to let me call him. My first instinct was, he is AVOIDING me. And my spirit just went down the drain. Nevertheless, thanks to God for giving me a wonderful best friend, Hany told me her point of view, that he is not trying (based on the stories about him that he heard from me) to avoid me. Maybe he is, genuinely busy. If you are, I shall concur. But I really hope, before the year ends, I will know the truth and we both will live with no regrets. You know, if it was really up to me (and not considering how busy you are), I want to meet you up and chat with you all night long. I miss doing that you know. But reality kicks me hard in the butt, so I just settle with a phone call (which I really hope you consider).

I kinda hope that if we actually meet up, we would be this dramatic. Meh, who am I kidding. If it's me, then the scene up there is possible. If it's you, I would laugh my ass off cz you are so far away from Chuck. Haha. Jk.

God, maybe I'm asking too much. But please, if he is suppose to stay in my life, can you please let him stay? I'm out of clues from You indicating that I should let him stay or I should let him go from my life. Give me the December to remember o Lord, and the best ending for my dramatic 2011?

Love,

Marcy.

If I were to describe my perfect guy, he would be like this (I hope this won't be a jinx that in the end I won't have any partner in my life [touch wood] or I would get a total opposite person than the one that I describe):

Must be taller than me. Not necessarily a tall person, but he must be tall enough to hug me. And hug-able too! Reason? I know that I will feel safe whenever I'm hug by him. And I don't want to hug a plank (sounds harsh, but that's true. Even guys actually preferred that their girlfriend/wife/partner to actually have some flesh. Do not regard this in a sexual manor cause I am not. And oh, to skinny (or those who thinks that they are skinny) girls out there, don't go and say I'm lying. I actually ever asked this to a few male friends so it is valid, okay?). But he must not be too muscular though. Too muscular = BIG NO NO!

This is just nice. :)

This? Agak melampau lah, don't you think?

He must understand that I value friendship a lot. So, he must not try to separate me from my friends because he needs to remember, that before he came into my life, they are the ones who play important role in my life. And I value the bro code "bros over hoes" too, so I hope he values mine too (not the code, if you get what I mean).

The one who I can count on whenever I got myself into trouble. I am a messed up girl, and this semester just proved it. I've been into accidents, got summoned by the police, had car problem (which of course I got no clue about, but I made it) etc. So yes, as independent as I am, I still need guidance from someone who knows better than I do. Which means to say, he must be a street smart person, not a bookworm only. Not everything is based by the textbook. There's no textbook on how to survive life out there sold as far as I know. If anyone of you found one, please tell me. I kinda need it. Okay. Just kidding. Back to my point, the guy must be street smart and full of experience. Not just answering "I don't know" or even worst "just Google it" to my silly (or not-so-silly) questions. He doesn't necessarily have to come and save me every single time when I got myself into trouble, no. So far, I can pick myself up from the troubles that I've run into. I just need someone to tell me what to do next because, c'mon, when you're panic, you can't think straight. So when I am at my most irrational state, he needs to point out the rationale in the situation that I am at that moment. (Okay, this is a long, elaborated description, but, yeah.)
Oh, he must be the person who I can talk to in the end of a long day (and the same goes to him, I must be the person who he can talk to in the end of a long day. I mean, I'm his life partner, so he's stuck with me what *evil laughs*.) I am the kind of person who shares the joys, sadness, anger, any feelings that I have. When I was in a relationship, that is the most important part because usually, our conversation is based on that; how is your day today? I love to share my feelings, but since now I am single, I share those with my friends of course. Sometimes I shared it here, most of the time in my Tumblr but never a day goes by that I don't do a fair share about something that had happened in my life. I have to admit, I am very expressive at my feelings. Before this, I hide my feelings a lot before, but it ended up eating me in the inside. But now, I am (I think) very transparent. When I'm angry, I'm angry. When I'm happy, I'm happy. However when I'm sad, you need to be friends with me long enough to know that I am actually hiding sadness within me. So far, only Hany has that ability. And ~~someone else too~~ (though it only has been a year, or less, since we finally got closer). Usually, I will only tell my friends the sadness that I have after I calmed myself down. So basically, other than being a person I share my life about, he must know whatever feelings that I have without having me to have to point it out to him how am I feeling. Yup, I have very high expectations so, je suis désolé. In a nutshell, he must know how to console me and calm me down whenever I am at my breaking point.
A person who I can bicker with, but in the end of the day, we still love each other. Being an intelligent (kah?) girl is hard. Sometimes, guys are intimidated with the knowledge that we have. Which means to say, we have our own point of view; but some guys (being conservative, not in a good way) doesn't respect our opinions, our point of view. I love being intelligent, being able to answer questions that people throw at me. Must I pretend to be someone dumb in order to get a guy's attention? Later, what will the guy thinks of me? That I am incapable of doing things. Hell no. So, he must respect my point of view (though sometimes it might be wrong; hence the street smart traits that I had explained earlier he must have) but he must also must not back down everytime and let me win the fight. An intelligent fight once in a while is good, but make sure the make up is also good so you know it's worth it :).
Last but not least, I can be weird with him. Let's face it, everyone has a weird trait(s) in them. As for me, I have a lot. I think. But I just put one here, later malu lah if my future husband somewhere out there read this and say, "she is so weird. Might as well I find someone less weird than her." Okay, I can't think of any right now. Wait, okay. As I had said earlier, I am an expressive person. Hence, there are times that I can have a random outburst. It can be any, I can laugh at something for so long or so hard that nobody understands why I do that (only I know the reason why I do that so perdón me.) or I can be so angry that I cried or random sexual outburst. Yup, I do have that. Not to say that I have a dirty mind (or maybe I do, I don't know), but it just so happen that I remembered that as it has a connection in a way with sexual things (best eg, condom). If you can't be weird with me, then how do you expect me to be weird with you?

Nevertheless, in the end of the day, he must be my bestfriend in order to be my lover. I mean, love will always start from friendship. It can be an unexpected one, it can be an expected one. But usually, the unexpected ones will always yields the best result. I think this quote is the best quote to sum what I mean here.

So yeah, that is basically the perfect guy I am dreaming about. Does this describe someone I know, I'm not sure. I know someone happens to have a few of the traits that I had mentioned above. But he is beyond my reach; no, this is not me giving up. I'm just facing the reality that I (might) have no chance against the person who is getting closer to him. Anyways, moving on. Anyone who has all the seven traits, okay, itu sangat melampau, 6 out of 7 or maybe 5 out of 7; who happens to be single AND available, and looking for a (potential) partner, please appear in my life. If possible, enter my life by accident but stay on purpose. Amen++.
