Rejected

Yea~ I received back 2 of my blog posts from Alex today. One of them written ok, but another was just seen. So, I have to edit my posts. I know where's my problem as I always have a quite short closing. I do not know what can I write and how express my words by using English because I used to write my personal blog with Chinese words. But this is a process of learning. I'll take it as a challenge and I'll try my best to make it. English is important for all of us right?

What will you feel when your work being rejected by lecturer? Ermmm..well, for me I'll take it as a process of learning if the lecturer did told me what's the problem or my mistake that cause him or her to reject my work. But then if my lecturer reject my work without telling me where's the mistake or I didn't found any wrong in my work, I'm going to ask around my friends and also gain some courage to ask my lecturer WHERE IS MY MISTAKE.

I accept people's comments and critic, I know I'll feel bad but this is just the begining. I'm sure it's just a beginning. The comments and critic will increase and hopefully those comments n critic can make me into a better person or even can create a better work in future. Yes, say is always easier than do. I have a bad temper and I'm very emotional. Previously, I scolded my friends for not being cooperate for the assignment but now I'm try to being more thoughtful and control my emotion so that everything go smoothly as planned.

Through out being reject and critic by people, sometimes I can realise my strength and weaknesses. Old people saids that "outsider always see the clearest things". So I it doesn't matter if people spot my mistake. I'll try to redo or find a way out to solve the problems. Although at first I'm very lazy to correct my mistake but my friends will push me and keep on asking me to correct it. Sometimes, they're just like a farmer pushing a cow. After the cow done it's job, it will receive the reward. Haha.

What make me change or what I'll do in my future is I'll learn from mistake and gain more critic! Hahaha..xD critic make me a stronger person and train me into a better person as I have to bear with those comments which might be useful or useless. It's a process, a long journey for me. I really hope I won't lost my temper and emotion. I know it's hard.

However, some of the critic might be negatively. Some of the people might just purposely shot at you because of jealousy or they don't like you. For me, of course I'll get angry and might show a black face for whole day long. Nobody can change my bad temper so i have to learn how to control myself. Hopefully I won't meet with these kind of "critic king or queen" in my life. But everything is fate. I have to face it in one day. Gambateh Mokko Tan! Smile to the world, say Hi!

What if I have a TWINS sister?

Yesterday, I went to IOI mall with my grandma, aunt and my cousins. We saw a lot of twins over there and my grandma asked me why will there have so many twins. But...grandma, how do I know? If I explain to you using scientific way, will you understand? If I simply answer you "Because they use photocopy machine to create twins" will you laugh at me? hahaha..xD 

I have 4 sisters and I'm the youngest. My sisters are caring and treat me very good. However, I wish I could have a twins sister! Why do I say so? It's because I need an accompany. My sisters are all elder than me, they have their own busy life as 3 of them graduated and is working now. One of my sister is studying in Penang. Awww.. so far away from me! 

I'm the ONLY one in PJ and I don't have many friends (especially close girl's friends). Everyday I stick to one of my male friend as we can always communicate well although I know I'll make his marketing value drop to the ground. BUT, not everything I'm able to talk with him although he's a good listener. If I have a twins sister, I could always stick with her and have pillow talk with her every night without fail (unless we quarrel). If I have a twins sister I also won't be bored and feel lonely in PJ. We can always go to class together, even if we're taking different subject. I can order her to cook for my dinner. Haha! There's too many things we can do together.

Being a twins also have it's con as I know there's a lot of stupid questions will pop out for twins. 
For example : 
What if both of you love the same person at the same time? (the most lousy question for every twins)
What if one of you have kidney failure?
Can your parents identify which one is you?
Will your friends call the wrong person?
ETC...

As the title - [IF] I have a twins sister

Whatever, as I know in reality I don't have twins but I look alike with 4 of my sisters. Sometimes, my relatives will mix up 5 of us and I'll definitely shout out loud my name because I'm the youngest! How can mix up the youngest with the rest of them? hahaha! See, even though I don't have a real twins sister, I still get mix up by my relatives. Sakit kepala!

Ok, I face the reality that I don't have twins, but I still wish to get a close girl's friend in PJ who I can talk to. Girls are always the most annoying one I know. But I need to express out myself rather than just keep everything in my heart. It's ok Mokko, go back hometown to find the close girl's friends. Have a nice day with them when you're back to there. Jia En and Sze Wei!! I miss you guys! <3

I'm hungry AGAIN!

Guess what am I doing now? Yea, I'm blogging. Woohoo.. cold joke right? (jingle bell... jingle bell...)

By the way.... It's 11.30pm already but I'm so so so hungry! I had my dinner around 7.30p.m which is cook by myself, and I had my supper (Oreo+milk) around 10.30p.m BUT! now I'm hungry AGAIN... You know why? It's because my roommate is eating curry mee right now! AWWWWWW I can't stand for the curry smell. It smell so so so good! 

Oh my dear roommate, this is not the first time you make me feel hungry during midnight. What am I suppose to do now? Your curry mee is so seductive than my bed. Your curry mee make me miss my mum and dad.Whenever I'm hungry, they will definitely provide me some food that I would like to eat. LOL cha kueh tiao, otah, KFC, dessert, durian all of the images is flowing in my mind. My stomach is calling me now.

I couldn't stop thinking about food. Although I'm thin and slim like a chopstick, but I'm a good eater. I can eat a lot of food and my parents are impress by my special "talent". Many of my friends (actually is everyone) is so envy that no matter how much I eat, I'm still maintain my weight around 45kg. I don't know why sometimes I really have an bottomless stomach, no matter how many input of food to me, that's still not enough. Maybe my gastric juice is too acidic? Or because I can't sense the feeling of full?

Everyday I have to keep some biscuits in my bag, whenever I feel hungry, I will take out and share with my friends. It's also a way to strengthen our friendships right? Haha! For me, food is always the best link between people. Oh no, my stomach is roaring. I didn't blame my roommate for making me to feel hungry, but I really hope that you can share your food with me. xD Joking only la~ Eat is a kind of blessing and I want to try out different cuisine! Don't you think that it's a waste if you don't try out the food which is in different culture cook by different ways? The texture, the smell, the feeling is totally make your tongue and stomach have a sense of satisfaction. I'll definitely brings my parents to go around the world and try out the special food in each corner! (Ok, save $$$ first) Perhaps I will find my Mr. Right who also is a good eater. 

Ok, let me end this blog right now. I'm going to eat some snack to calm the "baby" in my stomach. Goodnight everyone, I didn't share any images so that you won't feel hungry at this timing. See, I'm so thoughtful. xD 

See ya.

Hey! U make me fall down!

Last Saturday I went back to my hometown Batu Pahat, Johor in order to celebrate Father's Day with my dearest dad. Four of my sisters also went back for this meaningful occasion even my eldest sister's golden retriever - Bunny. Early in the morning, I wish my dad Happy Father's Day and I took a selfie with him.

He rejected me at first, but at the end, he show me his naughty face!
hahaha..xD how wonderful it is to have a such playful dad.
Uncle Tan! Happy Father's Day. You're always the best!
I'll try my best to live in this world happily.
Thank you for your sacrifice for our family, thank you for
feeding me up with 4 taxi tyre.
Best papa and best taxi driver!
I'm proud of u
I LOVE YOU <3
During afternoon, the weather is super hot and I wanted to help Bunny to take a shower as my sister's friends is coming to play with her. Bunny is now 3 years-old and haven't become a mum. So she's still very playful and STUPID! Why so I say so is because she made me fall down on road and drag me on road.

Here's the story :

After I help Bunny took shower, my sister ask me to bring her out for a walk and of course I follow the instruction. I hold the dog chain tightly and bring her out for a walk. I didn't noticed that there's a wild dog on the roadside but she did. She was so excited and run towards the wild dog. I was so scare that the wild dog might bite her back but I couldn't control her as she's too strong. Sad things happened in just 5 seconds. I have been PULL DOWN by her and she drag me on the road! I'm so scare that the wild dog might jump to me and bite me. Luckily the wild dog is timid one. It ran away from Bunny.

I never let go the chain as I scare there's car passing on the road. I stand up, shout at this STUPID dog like a mad women. It's too scary and I still couldn't calm down. I look at my slipper which is far away from me, it's broken. I pick up my slipper and I bring Bunny back with my bare foot! 

It's so funny and touching that when I'm standing outside of my house with such a miserable conditions, the first reaction of my sisters is LAUGH! They laugh at me and ask me what had happened. Of course I told them everything but I didn't found out that I was bleeding until my sister's friend mention it. OUCH! it's painful! When my sisters and my mum realize that I'm bleeding, their facial expression change within 1 second. My sister order me to wash my wound and she ran into the kitchen to get first aids for me. She help me clean the wound while scolding Bunny.

Bunny show her innocent and guilty face. She wanted to lick at my wound but I dare not let her do so. I asked her sit aside, so that she won't touch my wound. I told her it's ok but i won't bring her out anymore. My sisters is so worry about my wound and my parents do so. Can you imagine 4 of my sisters standing in front of Bunny and scold her for her fault? Haha. It's so funny but touching.

This incident let me found out how important I'm for my family. They care about me although it is just a small accident. I never knew that my family's reaction could be so vigorous. Although Bunny made me fall down and drag me on the road, but she is just a dog, a cute and stupid dog. Her present make my family have fun and joy. We dote her as one of the family member. It's ok Bunny, I didn't blame you. You are strong! Because you successfully pull a 45kg girl fall on a ground. You will always be the cute Bunny. Don't worry, I'm fine. :D

Bunny : Sorry Mokko, I'm so sorry.......

Mokko : It's okay Bunny, we're still good friend
Dog is the most royalty animal and the best accompany.
PLEASE treat them well.

One of my hobby

In order to further my study after STPM, I leave my family, my sweet home, my hometown and start my new life in Petaling Jaya, a place that I never been until last October. My first impression about PJ is - DANGEROUS! Too many robbery cases happened there and there's too many cars!

My parents always worry about me because I'm the youngest in my family. They worry about me all the time, especially my daily meals. They always ask me to take proper meals to prevent gastric pain.  Of course I won't let my stomach be empty. Or else, my stomach will ROAR at me and you should know that it's so embarrassing when your stomach roar loudly in class. I always face this problem and my friends like to laugh at me.  

I learnt some cooking skills from my mum since I was young, so there's not a problem for me to prepare my meals. Whenever I'm going back to PJ, my mum will prepare a lot of ingredient for me so that I can bring back to cook over there. She also teach me some easy way to prepare a meal as she know my time schedule is quite pack. We always have fun in the kitchen because the process of cooking is not only Q&A but with jokes around. 

As you know, cooking is not about the theory but practical too! After I live without my parents and sisters, I started to cook and practice all the skills that my mum shown me. It's fun because I created some special dishes too! For me, cooking is just like doing chemical experiment. Whatever you add in, u will create a smell or even a texture of taste. It can always apply on our daily life, for example, if you choose to smile and being optimistic, your life will taste sweeter.

I'm glad that I have improve my cooking skills and now I can cook various dishes for myself. Besides that, I learnt how to choose vegetables and do some groceries by my own. This kind of knowledge can't learn from books! So practice make perfect, I'm look forward to learn more from all the resources. Perhaps on Father's Day I can cook for my dad and let him try.

Words can't describe my cooking skill so let me share some photo of my dishes!

Why Mokko?

Yuhoo~ blogging time! On the last post, I mentioned that I'll explain why do my nickname called - Mokko. Yea, at first a lot of people thought that I'm Japanese animate freak because "Mokko" sound like Japanese name. But I'm not animate freak! I only like to watch One Piece due to it's story line. (Okay, maybe One Piece will be my next post!)

My name is not Japanese, Korean, Malay, English or Mandarin but HOKKIEN! Cute right? A name from Hokkien. This name was given by my sister and there's a story behind the name. If you are Hokkien people, I bet you will get a BINGO for the answer.

Here is the story : When I was a kid, my mum cut my hair into a mushroom shape. It's cute for me, but during that time, my sisters laugh at me hairstyle. Of course, my mum treat me like her barbie doll too. During kindergarten time, I kept a long hair and it's ok for me because I'm obedient girl, didn't care much about my hairstyle. She likes to style my hair with braid and I look lovely with those hairstyle. (Hahaha! self proclaim) At that time, I thought my mushroom head will forever gone. But who knows when I enter primary school, which is a pure girl school with a rule that students can't keep a long hair. OS in my heart appear...WHY?? Girl should keep long hair mar! Short hair is for BOY! But with no choice, in order to enter the school, I have to follow the enquiry. Okay, thunder strike on my head and my hair turn into a mushroom head again!

6 YEARS! 6 YEARS I have been carrying my mushroom head all around. And that's why my sister named me Mokko which means mushroom in Hokkien. Due to the effect of social networking, the power of Facebook, my friends started to call me Mokko instead of my real name - Gay Peng. Well, Mokko sound better than Gay Peng and I like to be called as Mokko too.

Although sometimes Mokko will become Pokok, Mangkuk, Rokok or even Kokok but it's sound fun for me and my friends. Now I had used to name as Mokko and I tried to relate my name into my design. Here is one of the example for my menu design which I named the restaurant as Mokkolicious.

My logo design for Maxico restaurant

A special Mexico restaurant menu [Mokkolicious]

This name inspire me a lot. Because of this special name, people remember me easily and even create a mushroom group for me. Thanks for my sister who gave me this cute name. I feel so alive in this world. Haha! Again, I'm Mokko Tan! Nice to meet you.
