Missing My Blog...

I miss my blog...I miss blogging ( a lil bit )...blogging helps keep people sane ( I think )... So many unspoken words running through my mind, sometimes feel like letting it out, but doesn't seem to sound right...

aiya...mind blocked again. ( hate having writers block ) *damn*

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.

Go Away Sickness, I Don't Need You

Falling sick too often lately. Am so not liking it one bit. It's irritating, dreadfully irritating. Wonder what I'm doing wrong...

Lack of sleep is definately one of the culprit. But I can't help myself. I don't like taking naps, it just gives me a major headache. Sleep early? Well, that would depend as well.

Weather? Oh yea...I'd blamed it anyday, anytime. hahaha...(sorry weather, since you've been so unpredictable & unbearable, you are one of the factor)

Meals & Snacks...hmm...I've been eating healthily lately already, except of course my daily doses of Milo...might have to consider other alternatives though.

Anyway, anyhow, I'm sure I'll recover...eventually.

As for now...*hack* *cough* *wheeze* *sniff* *argh* *gulp*... HAHahahahaha....

Beware what sickness can do to you & your mind... it makes you do & say crazy stuffs...

I Love Swimming

The relaxing leisurely type of swimming of course...not the competitive type.

Never felt so "alive" and eager to go swimming. Actually, it has been ages since I last swam...(proper swimming)

Unfortunately, I'm very stuck at the 4 feet area. Will never venture off further than that. Even though I know how to swim, but I feel safer where my feet can actually touch solid ground. I doubt I can even float properly. It's no fun to almost drown when you were very young...

At times, feels so breathless, probably due to stress, or the water pressure of the water against the chest. (yes yes...I'm very short, so the water pressure is right against my chest, where it causes breathing difficulties)

But nonetheless, I love swimming. I love the water. I love the beach too. But not swimming in the sea though...big NO no.

Wonder if I can still slim down even more from swimming...hmm...*dreaming*

My Oh-So Empty Blog

Oh my...I totally left my blog unattended for so long...*gosh* time sure flies...

Well, in summary, have been busy, busy & busy. With lotsa new things, or with every day routine stuffs, or just plain old lazy...well, yea...tired and thus, lazy.

Should I make another new year's resolution? hmm...too old fashion...It is coming to an end of 2009 and the start of 2010 though...lots of things unfolding, beginning, plannings...(mind wandering off again...)

I will not make promises, but yea, I'll try to keep this blog and my thoughts alive and well kept...for now. (Still contemplating on upkeeping several blogs or to combine and maintain just one...hmm...) decisions....decisions...

Time to change a new outlook for it...again. LOL...virtual redecorating. What kinda mood next...hmm...

Safety Message : Ignorance Kills


Examples of people who shouldn't be driving on the road.
If they are stupid enough to not understand the danger of having the engine running while filling up, who knows what they are capable of doing something worse while driving...
So, if you happen to see such people "You better watch out, you better run fast..."

Think smart, be smart!~

Happy Chinese New Year

Happy Chinese New Year !~~ (or belated CNY...hahaha..) never mind, only the 4th day so it's still valid. The year of the boar *oink oink* is said to be a "wealthier" year for all (praying hard)...but it'll be a tough year for those aged 30. It's always never a good year for ppl who turns 30 cos the chinese zodiacs clashes with each other. (3 more years for me~)

The proud grandma bought loads and loads of new clothes for the grandkids. *Wah~ can open a fashion boutique by now* The lil monkey's clothes were mostly imported from Hong Kong (that explains the fashion) and the twins had all the twin matching clothes, making them both look identical and cuter as always. As for myself, didn't buy a single thing. First of all, it wouldn't even be worth it as I've still a long way to slim myself down and all. Few months, maybe years (hopefully before I reach 30-lah)

Anyway, CNY this year got even more quiet than last year. Not much fireworks, not much of festive mood either. Just more traffic jam, especially at those new and happening areas. In penang, its definately the new shopping complex - Queensbay Mall. The place is big and long, with lots more familiar shops like the ones in KL, plus additional local or non-branded shops.

Well, the only highlight this festive season is the twins presence I guess. When ppl came over to visit, their attention was all channeled to those two and the lil monkey. I've not been celebrating CNY at home in penang for some years, so it's also their first time seeing her. Hahaha...at least it's not a too one-sided affair thingy and no jealousy. She had some new "friends" or so called "cousins" around her age to play with. Although the generation is a bit different. hahaha...the young "aunts" and "uncles" which my kids will have to call them. No need to confuse them with these yet for now..hahahaha...too young to understand anyway.

Triple Celebration

15th Feb 2007 - A day worth celebrating indeed. It was a day after Valentines', my bro's b'day, and my twins full moon / month. The whole family gathered, we celebrated, everyone was happy...hahaha... short and simple. The happiest person of all was (who else?) the lil monkey cos she gets to blow out all the candles (on my bro's b'day cake and the twins cake) hahhaah...

The cakes were ok - american cheese & the other was like fruit cake with raisins and stuffs...very sweet...Actually, my mom just needs an excuse to order a cake to try. There's still a whole lot more, so she'll just have to wait for another chance.

For valentines', I got a new mobile. (HA!). Wondering what the model is? ---> Z610i black colour...pretty cool phone. The loudspeaker is very useful...loud and clear =). Bought an additional protection transparent cover for it and a cute pouch. *photos to be taken and posted up later when I'm free*

As for the twins, they already had a head start on their ang pow collections. Considered their early savings for their future education...kekkeke...

B'day celebrations will never be the same again from next year onwards that's for sure. Look forward to it !~~

Allysa's B'day

31st Jan 2007, Penang ~ Allysa (or better known as "lil monkey") is celebrating her 3rd b'day today. Since the night before, she was restless and excited over this. The grandparents had ordered her b'day cake (strawberry yogurt cheese cake) and went to collect it today. Since then, she has kept on requesting to see her cake, light up the candles and eat the cake...hahaha...such an impatient lil monkey she is. Anyway, finally after dinner, the occasion was short but was well enjoyed by those present (ah mah, ah kong, khor poh, mummy, kak jum, kak rini). Here's a compilation pix of the event. =)

Unfortunate Incident

Didn't have time to post this yesterday so anyway, here goes...

Yesterday early morning, was on my way to the hospital with the twins for our follow-up check ups. Almost there, an accident occured right in front of the hospital (and also one car in front of ours). A sudden impact between a Myvi (driven by a female) and a motorcycle (ridden by a malay guy). The thing was, the traffic was going rather slow, but the accident happened so fast and sudden, (i'm not sure about the exact details) the motorcycle and the rider were both flung from the right side of the road to the left as if being hit very strongly and impactful. (real life situation here...) His helmet actually flew out and across of the road too.

Luckily, the car that followed behind stopped in time and so the motorcyclist was saved *phew* but he was in a dazed (dunno any bruises or scratches though) The funny thing about this incident was, the female driver of the Myvi having witnessed such an event just stopped her car in the middle of the road (there was space she could've just stopped at the side) and was frantically checking her car and making phone calls for help. The guy in front of her...in a white Volvo, came down just to ask how the motorcyclist was, and just sped of...(thinking it was none of his business and no serious injuries to the poor guy)

This had caused a slight conjestion to the traffic on an almost busy Thursday morning...Anyway, a few came down from their vehicles to help the poor guy. Hope and pray that he's alright. (but very unfortunate to what has happened to his motorcycle)

So ppl on the road, drive safely and cautiously...
