The Story

One day in 2005, four guys (Wei Wen, Ean, Aik Oui and Aik Sern) decided to participate in a singing competition. This was the first time the four of them joined forces to sing together. For some, it was their first singing competition ever. They sang Dui Mian De Nu Hai Kan Guo Lai that day. And without much practice, they got second place!
Man! The competition must have really sucked BIG TIME!!
With three girls (Winnie, Sharon and Sumin) joining them, they then subsequently decided to perform the song again. This time for their "beloved" Red Crescent Society's installation day.

They called themselves..
Wu Liao Nan Hai (and gals),
which literally translates to: 'guys with nothing better to do'.

__________________________

The story began wayyy back in 2003. To some that may not a be a very long time, but due to our relatively "short" lives, it was. Anyway, some of us may have already known each other long before 2003, but it was only in 2003 that all 7 of us were fully aware of each other's existence.

We all met at our aforementioned Red Crescent Society. At that point of time, some of us were recruits, some were members, and the some were the "high and mighty" section leaders. But even though the was a variation in our rankings, being the very.. VERY few members of the same year, we just sort of stuck together.

That was the beginning of a long, and I would say.. lasting friendship. Recess was spent hanging out together. weekends were spent chatting in the First Aid room. Life was good.

After graduating from secondary school, time spent as a group plummeted significantly. The twins went off to Australia for studies. And the rest of us went to separate colleges. Despite the circumstances, we kept in touch and were ever so looking forward to the biannual gathering at the twins place. Ahh, the company.

Now, all of us has completed college. Many of us moved overseas for further studies. The twins remained in Melbourne. Winnie left for Canberra, and Wei Wen left for New Zealand. The rest still have their foot firmly grounded on Malaysian soil. We are all forced to patiently wait for year end to come, when the now customary pool parties start again.

This site serves as a memory to our friendship and also to help keep each other updated with the on-goings of our lives. With luck, this bond will last for many years to come.

Ramblings.

It has been a long time since I contributed a post to this blog. So here I am!

HAPPY 2nd BIRTHDAY BLOGGGG!

Updates.

Life has been quite hectic and I don't wanna bore you with scheduling mess.

But Canberra is getting popular. Heh. Yan Min and Kavi (our SA friend) are coming to visit on the 25th sept! weeeee!

And Sern and Lynn are coming to visit Canberra at the end of the year. yayyy. :P

About my knee, well I am undergoing physiotherapy atm. 4 months and yay, I can dance and move about pretty awesome. :P Just haven't tested it out fully yet by running. But fingers crossed I will be 100% recovered soon enough :)

OH AND
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHARON! <3

And cuz I am currently on a facebook famine for a week (no kidding), my brilliant initiative after undergoing the 40 hour food famine. (famine addict much?) So, back to wishing Sharon. My famine will only end in 2 hours as we speak, so I cannot wish you on facebook in time!

Lol. Nowadays facebook is the new official standard for everything. Wishes are legit when made through facebook somehow. :S

Hence my famine. For three objectives. Mainly, to raise $350 for World Vision. Woot. I have almost $320 plus as we speak and more friends will be taking their hats off (and emptying their pockets :P) knowing that I have SURVIVED the famine (to some it is even more OMG than food famine. tsk tsk.)

Secondly, to get me off the blue and white screen. Literally my index finger looks out for F keypad the first thing I am logged on the internet. It's badddd.

And thirdly, for my own amusement. I mean, I agree it was so utterly lame to go on a facebook famine, but you know anything goes these days right. Haha. And to me being 21 is just that. Doing something totally outrageous (or not) which has little to no consequences to myself or other people. Only good things arrive from my famine so yayy! :)

Anywhoooooo. That's all from me I suppose. Ean! Be pressured to get facebook so I can get updates from you more often! Sumin and Wei Wen come to Canberra! :D

Love, Winnie.

Is it really?

Yes it is. This blog is celebrating the end of a very very very *deep breath* very very VERY low-key 2nd year of existence and the beginning of what is hopefully to be a more EXCITING and ACTION-PACKED third year. WOOHOO!

Oh, and as usual, today so happens to also be the day Sharon was born. Yea, so happy birthday to you if you ever read this, Sharon.

Cheers.
