Goodbye papa, mama

Few days ago I was ranting to fatty about the friends issue and he replied :

Go up to them and tell them if they don't interact with you, you're gonna eat them, which you probaly would.

Fatty jokes are unbeatable. I don't even know if he was trying to comfort me or insult me LOL.

Recently we chose subjects, I picked maths1, Psychology and Physics but currently i'm sitll in dilemma whether to change Psychology to Maths 2. IKR SHUWEN LING IS NERD LIKE THAT.

Parents left for Malaysia yesterday,

I damn proud of myself can because I didn't whine / cry over my parents leaving like some people did. Probably its cos right after they went on the taxi, I turned around to see Kiaos in his boxers walking towards me lolol . Cool dude grocery shopping in boxers.

Will be back with more pictures of Melbourne ! Wanna haul out my dSLR after a good break to go take pictures in the city this weekend :) 

-------

I was kinda whining about not  being able to find a clique like the friends back home. I mean city jokes and kampung jokes not the same la and sometimes it feels kind of shit to not be able to sing out loud like I always do or shout "GOOD MORNINGGG" at the breakfast table but I'm gonna give it more time.

I mean, Melbourne is so huge right ? Why do I revert ALL my attention into making friends only in Albert House ? :) My friends back home have been awesome. Thanks for always being there ;) You know who you guys are. 

BOSS ! DONT WORRY, I won't be simply spending your money :P 

Melbourne.

HELLO ! I just moved into Albert House, the boarding house / hostel I'm staying at in Melbourne. I've moved everything and TRIED to clean my room, but it still looks like 20 rage memes just marched in. More pictures of my room below !

I didn't add much of the people at Albert House on facebook, which means they won't find my blog, which is why I can gossip about them here HAHA just kidding wtf.

The people are extremely nice, I'm just trying to fit in and find a clique. I feel like I have split personalities here la. Back home I was the loud and crazy one. Here I'm like quiet and... boring.
Damn I always thought I was kinda fun. This realization is seriously taking a toll on my confidence :/

Albert House provides 3GB internet per month. Bought 10GB/month because I wanna skype and blog but then again internet cuts me off everytime I try to skype ::sigh:: Orientation started today and I met a few cool people.

So anyway, here are pics of my room in Albert House

Staying in a single room with shared bathroom. This is a bad picture.

You can see all the bags on the floor and wires wiring my table :O

I wanna wallow in self pity now la my cupboard runtuh T_______T

Mates to keep my company when I feel lonely.

Sirotan, Mickei. Duffy and Pingu. 

Heck yes I name my toys like that.

Thats probably my whole room already lolol. 

After cleaning up my room and folding clothes etc etc, you don't know how much I appreciate my housekeeper now

How she manages to work for one whole day without drinking water still remains a mystery. 

After walking for days in Melbourne (not sitting tram cos exp T__T), you don't know how much I appreciate my driver who has driven me around Sitiawan for more than 10 years ? 

I miss everyone back home, 

I miss you, teach.

I miss you baby. 

I miss you fatty.

I miss my friends, my boys. Its so different hanging out with a whole new bunch of friends who still has problems remembering my name.  Its easier to cope cos parents are still here but once they go back, I'll probably be whining more lol.

Omg i need happy thoughts, happy pictures

Melbourne city skyline ! 

and yay ! I like this picture of myself.

Anyway, Valentines Day is here ! 

Wuah I tell you, schedule is packed ! I have so many dates to attend !  

Lied. I did skype a MALE friend though. HAHA, not who I wanted it to be but damn, I like my friends, they so nais skype with me when I emo. 

To single people out there, aiya its just another Tuesday la ok ?

So yes, its like 1am right now and there's more orientation tomorrow. Please pray and meet awesome people ? :)))) BYEEEE

Just because I'm kind of vain.

--------------
Moving into the hostel/dorm soon ! Looks bigger than I expected. Got internet set up too.
SO SKYPE ME OK ? >>> shuwen.peekaboo
I miss home already.

Emo shit.

This is gonna be a wordy emo post.
I'm kind of being an emo shit right now because I'm leaving.
You DONT KNOW how much I want to be attending assembly and listening to Dr Ashely's lectures tomorrow. I've always sent people off, but I've never really felt what its like to actually be the one leaving.

Yala I know, I've been to Melbourne a couple of times and I know people there but its not home. 
I don't want to one day call Sitiawan a "holiday spot" neither do I wish to slowly forget all the roads and lanes I've gone so used to. I don't want to one day come home and ask fatty "Eh, where are the spoons ah?" . I want to KNOW where the spoons are.

Idk, I've never appreciated my house this much before today.
I was like showering and touching the bathroom tiles thinking to myself  "Wah, my bathroom damn big la and warm. Step out also warm. No need to shiver half die before I get into my clothes."  
Sitting here on my computer seat thinking "Damn nice la, aircond above me. Big screen in front of me, sitting on comfy chair with unlimited internet" Really makes me want to appreciate every single thing I see / touch.

Yesterday had cake with the band members, last night had supper with the boys & Megan.
This morning had breakfast with the girls and we went to the beach. In the afternoon Forever & Always came to give me a personalized calendar and more cake.
Usually I would take these events for granted but today while walking on the beach, sitting on a bench in Marina and flipping through the calendar, I couldn't help feeling blessed. Like omfg why my friends so awesome.

I will miss everything here dearly. I don't want to forget the feelings I'm feeling right now. All the love you guys have been showering over me for the past few weeks, I will bring them with me wherever I go :) Thank you guys for being there for me. Going for canteen breakkie tomorrow morning before leaving for KLIA with the loved ones. This blogpost is so filled with love that I should probably change my title from emo shit to love now. lolol

And also since my hostel only allows 1GB / month, skyping would be  hard, blogging would be harder. Thank God sis's apartment has internet. Will try to blog as often as I can, will skype you guys if I get to buy internet too. So please do miss me ? :))

Thanksgiving night.

Ditch the title, its just a house party called LingBena's Thanksgiving Night.

According to the boss its a night to give thanks and also celebrate grandma's birthday (which I also invited my friends and tumpang-ed as my farewell party lolol)

No kidding, boss even made a banner.

I didn't exactly invite alot of people. Around probably 20 but dad invited over 500 guests.

Thank god it didn't rain.

There were halal and non halal food on different ends of the house.

YB Kong giving his speech.

Hello unflattering picture of me eating.

Grandma's cake.

My dad has over 20 siblings. This is probably just a quarter of the family.

Chilled indoors after that playing monopoly deal.

Pictures of loved ones :

The boys. Charles, fatty and Sam.

Eugene. One of the important people in my life. Not only as a friend but also as someone who was really special. One of the people who made my high school unforgettable.

Gladys. I'm gonna miss this drama queen, seriously :))

No pictures with Jen ;(

Yi Lin my forever & always love cum cousin cum friend and Jiunn Yan the editor.

Two of my favourite seniors.

Ruthie ! I tell you she's the awesomest friend in the history of awesome friends can.

I mean how many friends texts you in the evenings and go "look at the sky now ! So beautiful !" when you're in a bad mood ?

Jae . We the hengdai. He's a friend who doesn't just simply tell me to move on. Instead, he looks for hot dudes, send me their links and hacks into my profile to add them for me.

I tried photoshopping him so that he looks buffer but fail !

Sheau Jin and Elaine !

Sheau Jin will be going to UK soon, NO MORE SUSHI KING PARTNER T___T

Elaine is someone I really don't know how to live without. Bestest friend la can. Always helping me take homework / sending me credit when I'm texting with my crush and I run out of credit. I feel like I owe you SO MUCH

Little cousin ! I think we look really pretty here :PP

She's super helpful around the house. I really enjoy shopping with you, girl :)

The boys and Fifa. I can never understand boys and football.

Last night I watched football with fatty and there was this dude called Rafael in MU. For a few seconds I was wondering why Nadal is playing football :O

I was nagging at my friends to sing me a Justin Bieber song on the Karaoke set.

Not that I like JB that much, it just would be kinda fun to annoy people with that song nyahaha.

Two heroes actually sang ! Not Justin Bieber but I'm touched ;)

Then more pictures.

Alvin ! Always has the insiders info. Super nice to gossip with :D

No time to catch up for more Indian food T___T but I will be back soon ! Don't forget the Otai burger you said !

Pey Pey. What can I say ? Pretty somemore, smart somemore. Make me feel so pressured taking picture with her ;P

Viveek the hero ! He sang two songs that night ! plus in Chinese. COOL OR WHAT.

Also the only person who sent me CNY wishes in Chinese pinyin. wtf even my Chinese friends don't do that ! Always the one to give excuses to not come for parties but always turns up. I'm gonna miss this blabbermouth alot T__T

Kelly my fellow boatmen haha ! Maybe not anymore because both our boat sunk. LOLOL

Sorry inside joke. Future band leader you're looking at weyh :P

Yuges ! I'm probably gonna get stared down / stabbed by one of his fans and never make it alive to Australia :PPP

The last few people to leave.

Chee on the left is going to the same college ! At least someone from back home :D

--------

While editing and uploading these pictures I can't help feeling really emo.

I'm turning Eighteen (????) this year and I'm leaving for college. Leaving the place I've called home for the past 17 years. Leaving my parents and all my friends.

wtf I actually still feel like I'm 13.

Before SPM, I couldn't wait to get over exams and graduate, leave this place and meet new people out there but all of a sudden,

I don't feel like leaving anymore..

but I guess everyone has to grow up ;(

PEEKASHU DOT COM !

After a year of dilemma, I'm proud to say

PEEKASHU.COM IZ BORN !!

But what is boggling your mind must be "Wtf is peekashu? Father of Pikachu?"

Its not just cos I find the name cute ok, neither is it because Pikachu is my favourite Pokemon and cartoon of ALL TIME (the original fat one)

surpassing Spongebob and Dexter. HAH IN YOUR FACE NICK / CARTOON NETWORK.

There is, in fact a reason/story behind the name peekashu.

Peekashu originated from the word peekaboo. Just with a little personalization, mixing it with my name Shuwen and all.

I chose peekaboo because its known to be a popular game among babies to cheer babies up. So in conclusion, I was hoping peekashu.com would have the same effect on all its readers.

So yeah, now you know how the name peekashu came about.

Hopefully from now on, peekashu.com can bring joy to all its readers out there :)

Big thank you to all my loyal readers, you guys have been awesome. Thank you for actually reading all my #crap and helping me afford a domain HA HA. I don't know how to say how much I love you guys but I love you guys lah. lololol

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

ok I made that up. I actually came up with the name Peekashu just cos I think it was cute.

The story came AFTERWARDS. HAHA

but thanks for reading this whole #crap post anyway.
