Too Soon...

While everyone is reuniting and celebrating for the anniversary of the country's independence, my family will be reuniting for a different type of occasion.

In a couple of days I will be travelling to Singapore with my mom. It will not be the usual happy trip as I have had since I was little. This time, I go there with a heavy heart. Not a trip that I would like to make, not so soon...

Life is fragile, you will never know what could happen to you or people around you in just a split of second. I lost a beloved uncle today. The thought of never seeing him again, never feeling the his great hospitality again, and most of all, losing a person who had loved all of us so much, hurts me so so so much...

Today I sit, so helplessly wishing I could be doing more to ease the pain of his family. Wishing I can be there for them sooner. Wishing I could do more.

My heart goes out to my aunty, and cousins. Our condolonces to all you...

Rest In Peace Uncle Kuan... We'll miss you...

We Love You...

I Pledge My Life to Mother Nature...

Life is just insane for me now... literally...

Can't explain my hatred... not exactly hatred but more of frustration... utter frustration...

What use is there to call yourself a friend if you dare not even voice out when you know a disaster is about to happen?

Fear?

Minding your own business?

Means if your friend is about to kill someone, you will just allow it because you want to mind your own business?

OMG....

Whatever it is... I could care less anymore...

I believe everything happens for a reason...

Rather than to sit and sigh on what's happening...

I just take a walk and see the world...

If human can't do any good nowadays, I shall just dedicate my life to care for beings who are not able to speak for themselves... =)

Browse my blog... see the two panels at the bottom? Take sometime to read the website... you will know what I mean...

Please friends, do our part. You may think that one person can't do much difference, but think again, if you have the heart to do your part, and on top of that spread your words to others, in time, we can be the bigger voice.

Give mother nature a chance, be her voice. Let coming generations have the opportunity to see and enjoy this amazing world.

We live each day mourning and sighing about life, fighting for our rights, building our lust and greed. It's time to open your eyes and look at what's happening else where besides your own life.

These poor animals, sharks, whales and tiger have been critically endangered for quite sometime, why don't you do your part to save them? We can all make a difference.

Be their voice, speak for them, fight for them. You lose nothing, in fact you gain more. We spend time punishing human who harm other human, what about human who harm these animals? Why are they still often overlooked?

Take your time, read the stories. If you have a heart, you will know how cruelly these animals are being treated... harmed just for the greed and ignorance of human beings.

Please friends... we can do it...

Overdose of Hotness....sss....

At first it was Taylor Lutner and Robert Pattison...

And you thought you had seen the best...

And then came Daniel Wu and Louis Koo...

Yummm... I like...

Daniel Wu is so damn hot... where to find a guy like him ah? Well it's just my personal taste though... I realise my doft spot for hot asian guys is far wider than what i thought.

Dunno whether I was watching the movie or watching these hunks... hahahaha~!!

Sampat-ness...

in a sampat mode currently~

Recently I decided to experiment with liquid eyeliner... the result is kinda satisfying actually... I really like it and had many compliments... not bad for a make-up beginner i guess...

haha~!!

I thought of changing jobs too, expecially after roomie tendered her resignation. We talked about jointly rent a place down town while working in KL. still in planning process, but I do know some people are getting all excited about me working in KL. Cause it will mean that we will get to meet up more with me being closer to everyone.

hehe~!!

This post is kinda pointless but im just wasting time cause I realised that I haven't wrote anything for more than 2 months.

Phuket~

Ngeee~~ I just got back from Phuket. Total bliss after one year of mind draining, heart breaking, soul shredding year. Phuket was fun, whole new experience with so many eye opener. It's my first time to the land of Siam. I didn't know what to expect in the beginning.

I don't think I want to write out our itinerary here, instead, I think I will talk more about my feelings and what I had experienced there at Phuket. First of, I have never felt more foreign in my entire life. It felt like I was on an English island instead of Asian. There were so many sun baked whites. St one point I even believe that there were more foreigners than their locals there.

We visited the Phuket Fantasea. Basically it's a cultural show held in (literally) a wonderland. It is so colorful with so many different mascots and mythical creatures brought to life (size). The buffet was excellent, with a buffet area of enough space to cater for over 3000 people at a time. The cultural show was remarkable. Held in a theater that is able to cater for 4000 people. a stage so huge that more than 15 adult elephants are able to perform comfortably on it. It's an experience that if you are going to Phuket, you should be visiting this place. It might be a little bit pricy but in all, it's worth it.

We also participate in the Phi Phi Island tour. It's like the Langkawi island hopping, only 10 times better. We brought to more than 4 places to swim, snorkel and sight see. They even provided lunch and what seems like an endless stream of refreshments and beverages. I felt so silly, it was my first time to attempt snorkeling. I cried because I felt so damn uncomfortable using the snorkeling gear. I did not know how to use it. It would have been so wonderful to have a pre-scuba experience (as what Bie calls it). I will not give up, Bie won't let me anyway.

Shopping in Thailand is fun. It's a place where you don't have to be shy to bargain. I did not shop much because we had used a lot of money doing other things more worthwhile. I only got myself 3 suits of bikini for RM100 and 2 pure white blouses for RM60. Bestie Ping bought more though. Note to all, when you get to thailand, you MUST haggle your prices down. They DO overprice things, well of cause don't take advantage though. It's best to go on ratio of what you think is the best (reasonable) price. EVERYTHING in Phuket is bargainable. Bie got himself a really nice tattoo behind his shin at a really good price too, only RM150.

Bie had the chance to do shooting at a local shooting ranch. It's quite costly but apparently (I did not know it till then) it's not something that you can do everywhere else on earth. So Bie tried the shotgun as well as the M-16. It was confirm that it's not easy to find a shooting ranch when we got back from Phuket and Bie was telling his brothers about it, everyone was so excited.

The Ping Pong Show a.k.a Thai Girl show was truly an experience. Oh my... I never knew a woman's vigina can do wonders. It was unbelievable. She blew darts using a blowpipe... She 'gave birth' to a baby parrot... she 'shoot' bananas out... She even smoked with her vagina. I believe my eyes were popping out while wacthing the show. It was also a strip bar that we were at, watching the ping pong show.

This is the place where I truly see the people of Thailand. The place where I notice that the customer service of Phuket is marvellous. It didn't matter what they do for a living, from the small scale business people by the road side, to the mascots, to the infamous thai girls and as well as the striptease, everyone was delighted to serve you. Not a single one is without a genuine smile craved across their faces. Ironically the only unfriendly person I encountered was the lady in McDonald's.

I'm now anticipating my Siem Reap, Cambodia trip in October much much more. Can't wait to go to Angkor Wat. Can't wait to see new people and cultures. Haiz... now I'm back to Genting Highlands, feel so restless and bored. I feel like finding a job else where already. Roomie is most likely leaving, which makes my motivation drop even more. Anyone has any recommendations for me???

RAWWWRRR~~~!!!

GONG XI FA CAI TO EVERYBODY~!!!

It's new year in the lunar calender, symbolizing a new beginning, better luck to all, and blessed with great health along with prosperity. May the great majestic tiger watch over all of us through this new year. May be well and happy.  

This year has been all home and family for me. Felt that I had not spend quality time with the entire family for a long time. It's special for us as the whole family is present. Can actually 'feel' my parent's comfort, happiness and love. Hehe...

Last year was a bad year for me. So many things had happened. I hope it will be better for me in this year. I have to correct things that I had done wrong. May this fresh new start bring me more joy, love as well as happiness.

I will be traveling a lot in the coming months. I will want to widen my knowledge on various different cultures and learn more about people around the world. It will be fun, I guess it's time for me to spoil myself a little after 'fasting' for some time.

Anyway... best wishes to everybody out there, friends, family and beloved relatives. Enjoy yourselves, I hope you don't get too drunk or overeat. Take the opportunity to celebrate familyhood, and reunite for love.

Happy Tiger Year~!!

How many times have we walk our lives thinking....

I'm too short

I'm too fat

I'm too poor

I want a PSP

The question is... does it matter? We live our life complaining what we have not enough of, what we want more, what we want different in us. In a split second, things can all change.

I lost a friend today. I will never see her again. I will never see her updates in FB again. I will never have the opportunity to know her better. Someone lost their daughter, someone lost their sister, many lost their friend. WE lost her forever.

Refreshing her FB page over and over. Reading her blog for the 1st time. Reading what her friends and loved ones wrote about and to her, I can't help but cry like a baby in front of my monitor screen.

We read about her in the papers this few days. Her generous and courageous ways of donating her organs. Giving a better life to others. To us, she will live on, in them.

I will always remember her bubbly ways. I will always remember how she would approach us in school. I will always remember her passion for gymnastics. I will always remember how friendly and happy she always seem.

She will always be remembered by all of us. My friends, her friends, her teachers as well as her family. She has given many of us a big impact in our lives. Her name will always be in our prayers. We will be strong for her, for her family.

We love her, but I guess, heaven needs another angel.

In memory of....


SANDRA WONG

Sandra, you are loved and will always be dearly missed by all of us. You will live in our hearts, now and forever. Life will not be the same without you. But we will be strong for your sake. We love you loads.
