Braces story #1

So... yes! i will do braces!
yup, in a private dental clinic in my hometown.
Because the government will only do for the teenagers only nowadays.
and its impossible for me to back to my hometown on weekdays.
so, private clinic is my only choice if i wanna do it.
A hard decision actually.

I asked the opinions of few of my friends recently, all of them encouraged me to do it.
I read many blogs and forums online.
and then i decided!!

OK, come to the money part.
Its not really expensive in the clinic that i used to go actually.
RM5k++ 
(Pay 1.5k for the first time, then RM200 for each time i come back to tighten the braces)
normally people do it RM6k+ 
AND
the prices i asked two years ago is same as the price now.
They did not raise the price when everything becomes expensive nowadays.
5K is not a small amount, but is ok lah the price compared to other clinic.
PLUS my dad knew the dentist.

Why do braces?
its expensive, painful, and when we grow old, our teeth will drops anyway.
Why i still want to do it?
yes, of course, to become prettier.
Although i don't hate my look now, my teeth did not give me any problem. i can bite i can eat.
But honestly, sometime i will still not confident with my own smile.
I will not show my teeth when i taking picture.. etc..
So.. i chose to do braces! haha

i did a lot of "research" online. 
Like how pain it is, the pain stay how long time, so on n so forth!
i am very scare, but with the agreement of my dad and think of i have so many friends actually went through this. So I think I could conquer it as well!!

i did the teeth mold days ago.
it was EWWW..feel like vomit when they molding my teeth.
i pulled it out by my self! (sorry doctor ><)
but luckily no need redo it.

Alright it was just the beginning!
Next week i have to remove two teeth and stick the brackets on my teeth.
So scare, so nervous but excited also. haha

Wish me lucks! #1


Me: Should i do braces? 
My friend: If you have the money, why not?

我要写一篇关于一个刚去世的朋友。
先说下我跟她的关系吧。

很多年前了！记忆好模糊。

我跟她一起上台表演过三次。
第一次是华语诗歌朗诵，中学女校。8年前
第二次是制服团体的马来舞蹈，中学女校。6年前
第三次是70年代的 agogo 舞，中六男女混校。4年前。

我跟她一起同校过三间学校了！好像没有同班过。但因为种种活动认识了。
尤其是中六时。哈哈。她和另一位朋友跟我的男朋友(曾经的)很熟，所以也常常有和她一起出去。也是她撮合我和我男朋友(曾经的)的啦~。我也怀疑他是因为她而跟我分手(我先声明不是她的错)。
这就是我对她的印象啦~哈哈

中六毕业了。大家各分东西后，我也没有跟她联络了。
三年后的现在。我尽然来到了她的丧礼。
据说她得了鼠尿病，进医院两天就去了。
太突然了。
那个从小就知道到大的人，离开了。
就这样，少了一个人。
好。。。突然。
我不能接受那个活泼开朗的她，离开了。
虽说我跟她不是很熟很熟的，但是我还是不能接受啦！

那天去她的丧礼，好多人回来啊。
好久没有见到那么多人聚在一起了，
尽然是在朋友的丧礼。

没想到这个年龄就要经历生离死别。
hmm。还是那一句。真的要珍惜现在身边还在的人啊！
芷靖 安息吧 我会永远记得你。

just repost

#REPOST two years go

(i think i never post this in my blog, so just repost it. haha)

I'd achieved my dream. I'm in my dream now. And my dream is going to end SOON.

Working holiday in New Zealand was my dream since I'm 17. Why NZ?? Because of my dad, he wishes to come NZ so much and this affected me to think that NZ is a nice place (it is!!). My impression about nz before I come here was just black-white cows. Haha! Actually a lot more.

i'm 20, the farthest place I'd been was just Singapore with family. I was the one who even have no gut to ask for extra ketchup in McDonald. It took me a lot of courageous to decide to come to the foreign country with the not-so-close travel mates.

Almost all of my family and relatives opposed me to go so far. And the hardest part was convince my parents.

And then I made my mind. I chose to do something that I'll never regret.

This 5 + months really changed my life a lot.

But I'm still me. Maybe better me, maybe worse me. Haha!

Anyway, thanks for those who helped me to achieve my dream. My sisters who helped me persuade parents, my friends who encouraged me, my seniors who gave me a lot of information about nz.

To my two travelmates. Sorry and thanks for everything. I'm always the trouble maker. Without you guys, I'll not in nz now. Tq..

Last but not least, I'm glad to know the friends from all around the world in nz. You guys really made my journey much more interesting. Hope someday we will meet again.

Love,

Chen Yuen Ling

七月一

在宁静的晚上，听着远远的狗儿在吠，看着天上的星星，和那微微的风打在脸上。停下脚步，呼吸一下晚上的空气。
有一种很奇怪的感觉。感觉自己很渺小。和有少少的空虚。很想此时此刻你就在我身边。给我一个温暖的拥抱。
有时真的，晚上宁静得很可怕。
这一撒那，觉得一切都无所谓，只要你在。
想念真的很折磨。
不管怎样，还是要打起精神来，去想当下该做的事情吧！ Arggh..
