Music Moves My Soul...Or Not

Actually, I've been searching and listening to songs a whole lot. It's fun (no offence) but it is a real pain too, cos of all the findings, searchings, listening (sometimes ear splitting) all throughout youtube. *argh...*

But just for the sake of this upcoming event (Let's Make It Happen 2), I'll do whatever it takes, to bring some fairly lively (hopefully good enough) entertainment throughout the day.

More choices to choose, oh...my ears...*continues*

Cravings

Been craving lots of things lately. Either must be the old habits kicking in, or the taste buds needs satisfying. LOL... pity my poor tummy though. Don't even dare look at the weighing scales lately. Cos it's either up, or not even moving. Hopes of ever going down are rather slim. Partly due to some individuals who insists that I'm too "thin"... seriously people, I know my own self.


Enough said, let's get down to the cravings breakdown...what's the damage...hmm....*tempting to resist and holding back as best I can*


1) Salmon Sushi *top fav...bwahahahaha...when can I dig in again ah ?

2) KFC - satisfied dee recently

3) McD - also partly satisfied cos it's easily attainable

4) Domino's Pizza - hmm...this is a tough one...hawaiian or pepperoni...I do miss the sushi promo though...that was fairly good.

5) Ramen - Yataimura / Oh Sushi was my only favs last time, wonder where there's any compatible or better outlets for it

6) Pastas - never did get to try Pastamania before...any suggestions ?

7) Hotdogs - 1901 *yummy big juicy sausages and toppings...* chomp..chomp...

8) Subway - Oregano bread + turkey hammmmm...*drooling*

9) Western food - Fish & Chips, Chicken Mushroom, Cordon Bleu...list goes on...and on...

10) J-Co Donuts!!!!! and the only outlet in Penang is at QB...why so far... =_=" Big Apple at Gurney is actually not bad, just sweeter, but soft enough til the following day.

*If somebody goes through my list, sure will question why all "ang mor" food...why not much asian cuisines, chinese / local food outlets, etc.

Firstly, I'm not much of a "rice" person, but of course I'll still eat it if I have to. Secondly, why I choose to list out these foods, cos it's not everyday I can actually eat them or should eat much of it. Think of these as just "treats", but not as daily foods instead. These are foods that makes me happy and would definately enjoy eating, once in awhile.

*Feeling guilty and tempted at the same time dee...argh...~

Just Not In The Mood...

I'm not in the mood for funny jokes, practical jokes, nor any funny businesses. Neither am I in the mood to take in any inconsiderate and unreasonable requests at other people's own convenience or likings.

There are more other important matters and priorities for me to focus on at the moment.

Times like these, jerks and idiots, pls stay far far FAR away from me. Better think THRICE before talking, and be more considerate and understanding towards people's situations. Most importantly, do not ASS+U+ME!!

I dislike plans to be disrupted and to be cancelled at the last minute. Not that I'm not flexible about it personally, provided if it only involves me alone. But the thing is, it is not just me alone. When matters involves more than 1 person, lots of things need to be put into consideration.

I dislike breaking promises either. That is why, I do not PROMISE anything. Too much damage control involved if things go down badly. Physically and mentally torturing...

I've Been Loved

I've been loved in many ways by many people, whom I've known, met, or just come across, whether directly or indirectly. That's what I believe. No matter how small or how little it might mean, how long it lasted or even just a brief moment, it still has a significant impact in my life.

All types of love exist. Whether one can accept it or not, is another matter. Everybody ( I believe ) longs for love, to be loved, and to love another in return.

A child yearning for parental love,
Parent's loving their child(s) unconditionally,
Partner's devoted love,
Family & relative's caring love,
Friendship's love,
and others, here and there...

I feel grateful, happy and lucky, to have been loved, to be loved, & still being loved.

I personally feel, LOVE makes one grow, feels strong (emotionally), confident, passionate, & a sense of security and belonging. When you feel that you're not alone, you'll be able to do amazing things in your life.

What happens when a love has been scarred? I don't have an ultimate answer to that. But I guess it's times like these, it would be best to move on with ones own life.

All types of love are all around us. Don't stop loving.

My CNY & Valentines

First of all, Happy Roaring New Year & a Lovely Valentines to everyone (belated Valentines that is). But who's counting, everyday can be Valentines if one wants it to be.


I managed to spend my CNY eve night / CNY morning a little differently this year. I've never really been out of the house much previous years (actually, almost never out from the house..literally) This year however, managed to look see at some pretty sights and a different experience.


Visited the Penang Buddhist Association temple, lotsa bright lights, praying and stuffs. The beautification of the temple looks amazing. Much different from what I remembered (some 12-13 yrs ago. The buddha tree looks as big and tall as ever. I quite like the leaves, cos of its shape and appearance. And one particular tree which my friend showed me, actually had a "face" on it, the branches stretched out, bench like for ppl to sit on type. When I first looked at it, it kinda looked weird with the face, but after that, I think the face gradually kinda looked like it was smiling. (imagination / mirage ?)


After that, went to another small like temple (house converted cum temple), they were having the lion / dragon dance performances. The drum beat kinda made my heart beat even more (LOL! chi kek-ness...but a bit too much for me to bear. Was kinda tiring) Have been a long time since I've last watched performances up close.


Along the way, people were playing with fireworks. Shot after shot of colourful fireworks lit up the night sky. (Goes to show how rare I've looked out of my own window to see such things)

Anyway, it's been a fun & pleasant experience CNY for me this year so far. Hopefully more good stuffs to come. *Rawwwr* LOL!

New Experience

Who would've thought that helping and "saving" people would be such an experience. It really requires so much effort, patience, team work and focus.

This year's Thaipusam is my first (and probably THE only Thaipusam I've ever been to for the past 29 yrs). There's so much mixture of feelings and thoughts, but mostly a satisfying feeling I guess.

I've never really helped nor "saved" people before, as in actually applying actual first aid / medical knowledge. And being away from it for the past 10 yrs or so ain't helping much either. So, in a way, I'm considered totally "new" to it.

It was really a great experience to work alongside my friends, and some great doctors during that day. Who willingly shared their knowledge and guided me through some hands-on-experiences.

Thank you everyone, for making my "new" experience such an unforgetable and somewhat enjoyable one. (Luckily I didn't have to repeatedly climb up and down few hundred flights of stairs) The tophill view was remarkable.

Oh yea, thanks to some youth's (SXI guys) for the "peacock" debate. I had such a great laugh about it. Time to start watching more animal planet / national geographic eh ?

My mom's quote / question of the day : Who rules the world?
Answer : The hand that rocks the cradle (WOMEN!!!)

Just A Little Bit More...

Some things that I wished I could have...

Just a little bit more...

1) Time
- to be able to do more things that I feel like doing
- to be able to spend those time with people that I cherish

2) Patience
- to be able to think things through more thoroughly
- to think clearly and see it from a different perspective

3) Love
- to be able to feel that warmth, fuzzy loving feeling again
- to be more daring, show more caring, and have lotsa sharing

4) Strength
- to be strong enough to face the challenges ahead
- to provide support not only to myself, but to others as well

What I Missed...

Hmm...maybe I can write a list about what I missed (i.e. eating, doing, etc...) so maybe I could re-start doing it. LOL (hopefully)


Alright...let's see...


1) Reading

*if only I could find other books which can attract my interest to read them, like all my Twilight series *drools*


2) Watching movies *at cinema*

*haven't got the chance and time to watch movies lately. Lotsa great movies on lately I heard. Especially Twilight (New Moon)...*sob sob* oh well, there's still DVD's.


3) Painting

*too expensive hobby and time consuming for me. Maybe as my retirement plan ? LOL


4) Riding motorbike

*will I be able to overcome my fear of falling ? I might, but I don't have a bike to try. Next time lah.


5) Snooker/Pool

*this is one game I'll definately look forward to play again some day. Wonder if I still have what it takes. *sorry lah sifu...*


6) Wood Carving

*well....it was a fun experience, I guess. Til I carved my own fingers (bloody experience). but all in all, it's still a fun (but dangerous) thing to do. I seriously doubt my name actually has any significance to this wood carving thingy though...LOL


Will add on more...if I can still think of any.

First Post of 2010

Well, better late than never...Happy 2010 New Year!

Gosh, late first post of 2010. Is it laziness ? Lack of time ? Tiredness ? Topic-less ? A little of everything I guess. Now my mind really feels like a total *blank-ness*

Where has all my spirit and inspiration gone to ? Oh where...oh where... better find it back (quick) LOL.
