[H]appy times has come to an end

I shall just start this post by saying I am back in Cyberjaya... I have always liked Cyberjaya since I started working here despite the long drive and empti-ness of the area... but being back in Petaling jaya made me realise that there were a lot more advantages working close to home... the only main concern about PJ is the parking but since parking was provided by the building, it was not an issue at all... so there nothing to worry about.. the journey is shorter.. occasional traffic jams but as long as you have the grasp of time, you will manage...

Leaving PJ was like leaving a place that I have felt comfortable with... Not to say that CBJ wasnt comfortable but it was closer to home.. a 20 minute drive from PJ compared to a 40 minute drive from CBJ is a huge difference.. especially seeing the fact how much I love staying at home... the sooner I could see the rusty gates of home, the better it is...

Okay, besides that... one of my favourite games in Facebook is shutting down.. It's actually already shut down.. you now know how long i took to write this post.. Pet Society had its last day on Facebook on 14 June 2013... I am going to so miss my D-Ken.. he has been my pet for almost 5 years already... here's proof!! I can't imagine something that has been accompanying me for 5 years is now going to leave me... That's like a fifth of my life!!!

I fed him full every single day and dressed him up nicely.. Bought some nice furniture from the shops to redecorate the house.. Oh ho ho ho.. this is all so painful... All the time spent playing with him, feeding him, buying stuff for him... and now, it's time for him to go... sobz...

Here are a few of my favourite photos from Pet Society...


I saved a whole lot of Pet Society Cash (the ones you need to buy using REAL money.. or like me, would never spend money for something i could not touch.. you can log in everyday and earn 1 PS cash after every 5 consecutive times you log in) for this... The seven dwarfs that were so cute.. I spent all my hard-earned PS cash on them...


My Harajuku room... Although D-ken is a boy but i assume Harajuku is unisex although it's all pink and purple.. I even added the harajuku frame for the photo...



Oh, the wizarding theme once happened in Pet Society... I thought I had more furniture and decorations but this is all I could find in my 99 pages-long storage... Oh well... can you see the Dumbledore-alike doll on the chair?? and the Voldemort-alike doll on top??



The furry-Flintstone room... A crossover between the Muppets and Flintstones...



The fruity-citrus room... and the jello-thingy that d-ken loves to bounce on...

There were even more furniture for more rooms but I didn't have time to redecorate using all of them.. so these are a few of my favourites.. Feeling sad already for not being able to see my D-ken anymore... sigh.. Goodbye my little friend.. I hope you enjoyed the house and all those stuff I bought for you.. I really enjoyed your company.. BYE!!

[E]xtra books???



As I have mentioned last month, my company has been temporarily moved to PJ... and next week will be our last week here.. NOOOOOOO!!!! After being here for 2 months.. I kinda enjoyed it here... It's much more closer to home and there are no tolls in between... my only woe about being in PJ is the limited parking but since parking is provided.. I would not mind staying...

Anyway... moving woes aside.. There was an MPH warehouse book sale at the MPH warehouse which is less than 3 minutes walk from my company~~~



And of course, I love book sales.... Not sure if I love reading THAT much but I just LOVE book sales... and there is no way I am going to miss this one.. when it is just so close to where i work... but my plan was to go there on the second day.. for no apparent reason... I just thought that i should go during the next day.. But.....



This changed everything!!!



In case you can't see... Those are Gossip Girl on sale.. a whole lot of them... That photo was sent to me via Whatsapp in order to tempt me to go to the book sale... and... Oh well, that worked!!!

I took off and went to have a look... grabbed a few titles from the Gossip Girl series.. but it wasn't complete.. so went there a few more times to collect all the titles from the series... It took me quite a while to search... since there were a few boxes like the ones above with the books and not all the books were in the boxes... some of them were randomly arranged on the shelves.. I had to scan through the dozens of shelves and thousands(I guess there were that many) of books searching for the one or two title that I was missing...

And, I finally managed to locate all the titles from the boxes and shelves..




Am really proud of myself... I managed to locate the needle in the haystack!!! I guess being a production editor does help me spot things faster.. yeay!!


Oh well, if I say that I just bought the Gossip Girl series from the warehouse sale and nothing else.. I doubt anyone will believe me... and yes, I did buy a few more titles.. they were all rm5 each.. How could you resist???


I am just such a fan of chic-lits... especially those that were made into series or movies... swept The Princess Diaries off the shelves.. I love Meg Cabot too but I need to control my budget after getting the whole set of Gossip Girl.. There were a lot more titles there but I tried my very best to keep my hands off them.. so it's just these three...



The Carlyles are a spin-off from the Gossip Girl series.. and I actually bought one by accident when I was picking up the Gossip Girl titles... After realising this, I decided to just get the whole set... since they were all available there..




And more random titles... I think I enjoy buying books more than I enjoy reading them...


The one at the bottom is Narnia, fyi...


That's all folks
