Starting From Zero

That's Me : July 26, 2011

2011-07-25T21:41:00.000-07:00

I am not being over obsessive about myself, am I? Because I am writing about me today. You will see plenty about me now on...

All I could remember about last night was, not being able to sleep very well. Woke up at 3 in the morning chasing my little pup around. She seems rather rebellious recently - not responding much to my call, notti little girl.
I am going to share about my embarrassed morning. I have plenty of liquid breakfast this morning. Forcing myself to down water is the usual regime. As when I am in the office, I practically don't drink any due to the cold temperature. Rushing out the house, collecting all my office usual, I left home. 15 minutes from home, I suddenly felt the urged to go to the ladies. Guess what, OMG - I'm trapped in jam! No ladies nearby, nearest petrol station on the way to work is right next to my office about an hour away? considering the jam. Lucky thing was my day's saved because I diverted from my route and found a BHP!

11.19PM at night, working late; alone in JB. Its been a long time since I last read to myself. It has also been a long time since I last blogged. So this is my effort to be back in the blogging market...

While I was working I was actually surfing and reading at the same time (Hehe... well it runs in the XX Genes that we just enjoy multitasking).

I came across an article title "Will doing EVERYTHING my wife tells me turn me into the most perfect husband?" by A J Jacobs interesting.

I quote the following from the article "Marriage is an accumulation of the little gestures. The little gestures are the ones that count - like making chicken piccata.". I believed in it. It will no doubt improve one's marriage.

Today is nothing a normal day should be.

1) Someone left me robotic, numb and disappointed. Never felt like this before. This was the worst. I totally lost it. I do what I should do, I do what I am needed to do, and I could only repeat a few words (totally speechless). Started with a not so good stomach, follow by a severe lost of appetite for my lunch set and ended with not finishing the bowl of Secret Recipe Singapore Laksa. At the end of the mean, appetite was totally gone.

Wouldn't eat the damn thing there again.

2) I left my office table with two tm access card, then I went to the toilet, after the toilet I went to have my lunch. After lunch at Secret Recipe I went to the station. On my way back from the station I noticed that I lost both the access card. It was a Damn thingy.

As I found the card missing, I follow back the route to trace the card. Unfortunately so, not only no traces of the access card, I had to go through the trouble of making a police report at the nearest police station. How sad! Who would love the fuss? IT SHOULDN'T HAVE HAPPEN!!!

I wouldn't want to know what is going to happen later... Who knows, twist my ankle, got wet in the rain due to the bad weather, trapped in the police station and etc.

My toe 5-bandage remove 2

2009-05-08T04:33:00.001-07:00

Today after work, preparing to bath i had to remove the bandage for bath. Removal was pretty tough. There was a slit in between the wound that was torn apart because it was sticking to the cotton bandage :(. It started bleeding again and damn tearing the cotton apart from the wound is again nothing but a pain in the ass.

My toe 4 -self wrap bandage

2009-05-08T04:02:00.001-07:00

Cool aye! Although not as neat as the doctor's but passable.

My toe 3 -after bath & dressing

2009-05-07T18:29:00.001-07:00

This is my toe after the horrible water. Before the bath I had to wash it with antiseptic, then keep it dry for a moment while I bath. The areas round my toe is washed as well. The bathing process took more than 30 minutes. Then I have to cloths myself, dry the sticky wound then apply the medication for that area... Horrible experience from the station stairs....

My toe 2 -removal of bandage

2009-05-07T18:19:00.001-07:00

If any of you is wondering how it looks like, well, it is as the image attached below. It is ugly well yes I know. It is about larger than the size of a 10 cents.

It was a pain in the ass removing the bandage after a whole day out at work for bath. The bandage inclusive of cotton and plasters were hardened due to the blood and sticky water from the wound. I've decided not to take a picture of the plaster as it is going to further gross you out.

Again, it was a pain in the ass. The cotton got stuck to the skin and I had trouble removing it. DAMN painful. Today morning 8th May 2009, my friendly colleague told me, removal can be done less painfully by putting some oil on it. Damn... Oops cursing too much dy ;( sorry. The pain is freaking! and I mean FREAKIN'.

You know what? I had to endure the night sleeping with the toe outside the blanket and my arm numb due to the injections.

My toe 1 -with bandage

2009-05-07T18:17:00.001-07:00

Yesterday 7 May 2009 morning while I was on my way to work, I accidentally kicked the walls of the stairs at the LRT station that I usually took my ride at. It resulted in my feed being skinned, bleed and full with pain.

I had to continue my journey to work, get a doctor slip and see the doctor so he can cut the access skinned out and wash the wound. I couldnt believe it. I was laughing and crying because it stinks to have wash your wound with antiseptic. Having the dead skin stick to your raw flesh and pulling it out to be removed by cutting is also equally as stink!

Now the image below is how my wrapped up toe look like... Damn PAINFUL ah. I had to walk like a cripple so as to minimize the movement and to avoid touching the base of the shoes the whole day...

The Fool

2009-04-29T20:56:00.000-07:00

There are various types of people we see daily. Some we communicate with, some just pass us by and others are people we may know but are not very close with...

There is this person I would especially like to dedicate this session of the blog to. He has got a temper of an easily irritated baby and practically a brain the size of a quail egg. Today he came to talk to me on a product and I hinted to him on something he was doing which sets his temper on fire. He jumped into conclusion and was practically on fire and wrote a dump nick.

The funny part was it only make a fool out of himself. I wanted to tell him it made him look bad but I've decided to not laugh out loud instead because if I tell him how bad he'd look, is a waste of breath. So I might as well stand at the side and watch the show instead. Such as him banging himself on the walls and not justify. Let him continue misunderstanding would be a whole lot funnier.

Dear friend, Have fun ;)

Time to get real to what’s happening – and get used to it

2009-02-26T21:57:00.001-08:00

Written BY Dina Zaman

The global recession has yet to hit our shores with full force, but Malaysians are already nervous.

THE year has been a little too exciting for many, including this writer. It’s come to a point that, in private and among friends, we confess that we are tired of it all.

The impending recession does not help. The shenanigans of celebrities and those in public office are exhausting us, and real life is getting tougher.

So when you’re being positive amid all this gloom and doom, you can come off as a Pollyanna. Everyone else is worried about the state of everything, and you’re trying to vibrate positivity.

Somehow, it’s politically incorrect and insensitive to be this chirpy. Frankly, very few of us will have the time and energy to want to reflect on our lives. There are bills to pay, families to clothe and feed, and the potential of jobs taken away. What is there to be so happy about?

Recessions happen every decade, but this time, everyone is affected. The rich, the middle class and the poor. Misery loves company, as they say, and it’s nice to gripe in company.

The party could not have gone on, though. It was, as a friend said, insane. You should have seen what was going on in his company, he added.

Unlimited expense accounts. The jet-setting and meeting with people who made or broke deals. Working with fresh graduates who earned 10 times more than when he first started working. The spending and partying. It all had to end.

And though the recession has yet to hit Malaysia in full force, the signs are already there. A person I know is bewildered by his friends not returning his calls. His fall from society and the boys’ club is perplexing. I tell him it’s because everyone is penny-pinching these days.

I do not tell him the truth: that he is persona non grata now because the days of wheeling-dealing on high stakes are over. At the end of the day, in that world, it’s all about money.

Women gripe about not being able to shop as much as before, but it’s harder for men.

For people like my friends and me who work in a field where pay is not at corporate rates, and whose friends are just the average Malaysian (I can imagine some people shuddering at the thought of being friends with the Average Malaysian), life goes on, though we note that RM100 does not go far these days.

However, I suppose for those who are in revered circles, the fall from social grace is something that they cannot fathom. After all, money can buy class, and cuts across all races, and they had had that social cachet for a while.

Malaysia has yet to be hit by the global recession, but Malaysians are already nervous. It can be hard to be a Pollyanna during these times, but stay positive we must.

I don’t know about you, but come March 8, 2009, I’ll be an exhausted bunny. Not a month passes without an epic socio-political drama. I am not a political analyst, and neither am I political, but as a reading and concerned Malaysian, like all my family and friends, we’re pretty much tired of it all.

We understand that parts of democracy and growth are facing challenges and dealing with changes, but how much longer can the current goings-on be promoted as governance? And when will Malaysia not depend on personality-driven politics?

To regain my sanity and sense of balance, I resolve not to read news for a week. It is going to be hard, but I think I need that distance. It’d be good if the media fast lasts a month, but I don’t think I am that saintly.

When one is too close, one does not see the bigger picture. I may be presumptuous, but I think Malaysians have had too much to swallow, and that we need a break, a break from all that drama unfurling in our beloved nation.

I’d like to think that a self-imposed introspective period may actually be beneficial.

Work beckons. I leave you with some home truths that Bill Gates reputedly threw at a bunch of American youths:

Rule 1: Life is not fair – get used to it!

Rule 2: The world won’t care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something before you feel good about yourself.

Rule 3: You will not make US$60,000 (RM219,000) a year right out of high school. You won’t be a vice-president with a car phone until you earn both.

Rule 4: If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a boss.

Rule 5: Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your grandparents had a different word for burger-flipping: they called it opportunity.

Rule 6: If you mess up, it’s not your parents’ fault, so don’t whine about your mistakes, learn from them.

Rule 7: Before you were born, your parents weren’t as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes, and listening to you talk about how cool you thought you were. So before you save the rainforest from the parasites of your parent’s generation, try delousing the closet in your own room.

Rule 8: Your school may have done away with winners and losers, but life has not. In some schools, they have abolished failing grades, and they’ll give you as many times as you want to get the right answer. This doesn’t bear the slightest resemblance to anything in real life.

Rule 9: Life is not divided into semesters. You don’t get summers off, and very few employers are interested in helping you find yourself. Do that on your own time.

Rule 10: Television is not real life. In real life, people actually have to leave the coffeeshop and go to jobs.

Rule 11: Be nice to nerds. Chances are you’ll end up working for one.

Duchenne Smile...

2009-02-16T18:29:00.000-08:00

Smile is one of the human's facial expression. Besides the lips, a smile can also be found around the eyes. It is known as the "Duchenne Smile". Customarily a smile maybe an expression denoting pleasure, happiness, or amusement, but it can also be an involuntary expression such as grimace.

Happiness is most often the motivating cause of a smile. We can smile open or close mouth. We can also tell from it if it is genuine or vice versa... This is where Duchenne Smile comes in place.

A Duchenne smile contracts the zygomatic muscles of the cheek and eye, which forms the crow's feet. The crow's feet indicate that the smile is genuine and that the smiler is truly happy.

So the theory does apply to everyone...

Tell me are you at the happiest now? How genuine is your smile? Are you happy? Are you really happy? Do you know if I am happy?

Now you know, your smile can betray your all... Because and only because, we can tell from our smile if we were really happy at that particular moment.

Reply from GOD!

2009-02-16T17:40:00.000-08:00

A man was sick and tired of going to work every day while his wife stayed home.

He wanted her to see what he went through so he prayed:
'Dear Lord: I go to work every day and put in 8 hours while my wife merely stays at home. I want her to know what I go through. So, please allow her body to switch with mine for a day. Amen!'

God, in his infinite wisdom, granted the man's wish.

The next morning, sure enough, the man awoke as a woman. He arose,
cooked breakfast for his mate,

Awakened the kids,
Set out their school clothes,
Fed them breakfast,
Packed their lunches,
Drove them to school,
Came home and picked up the dry cleaning,
Took it to the cleaners
And stopped at the bank to make a deposit,
Went grocery shopping,
Then drove home to put away the groceries,
Paid the bills and balanced the check book.
He cleaned the cat's litter box and bathed the dog.
Then, it was already 1P.M.

And he hurried to make the beds,
Do the laundry, vacuum,
Dust, And sweep and mop the kitchen floor.
Ran to the school to pick up the kids and got into an argument with them on the way home.
Set out milk and cookies and got the kids organized to do their homework.
Then, set up the ironing board and watched TV while he did the ironing.

At 4:30 he began peeling potatoes and washing vegetables for salad,
breaded the pork chops and snapped fresh beans for supper.

After supper,
He cleaned the kitchen,
Ran the dishwasher,
Folded laundry,
Bathed the kids,
And put them to bed.

At 09 P.M he was exhausted and, though his daily chores weren't finished, he went to bed where he was expected to make love, which he managed to get through without complaint.

The next morning, he awoke and immediately knelt by the bed and said: -
'Lord, I don't know what I was thinking. I was so wrong to envy my wife's being able to stay home all day. Please, oh! Oh! Please, let us trade back. Amen!'

The Lord, in his infinite wisdom, replied:
'My son, I feel you have learned your lesson and I will be happy to change things back to the way they were. You'll just have to wait nine months, though. You got pregnant last night.'

Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD)

2008-12-10T22:16:00.000-08:00

Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD) is a recognized delusional anxiety condition where attractive people believe they are hideously ugly. Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD) is a psychiatric condition that causes sufferers to obsess about an imagined or small defect in their appearance.

Around one per cent of the population suffer from this disorder. The disorder usually starts in adolescence, when people are most sensitive about their appearance. It is like an ‘emotional cancer' because it will eat oneself up.

The list of symptoms, which includes:
1) Constantly checking your appearance and focusing on just one area of the face
2) Sufferers commonly avoid social situations in a bid to prevent people seeing their ‘flaws’
3) Seek medical help for their imagined defects.

Your GP can help. Treatment for BDD may include antidepressant medication, cognitive behavioural therapy or a combination of both.

You ain't heavy, you are my son.

2008-11-30T19:45:00.000-08:00

Let me start today by telling you one of the most touching story I have seen. It is a true story about Team Hoyt.

A son says to his father: 'Dad, would you be willingly to run a marathon with me?'
The father, despite his age and a heart disease, says 'YES'.
And they run that marathon, together.

The son asks: 'Dad, can you run another marathon with me?'
Again father says 'YES'.
They run another marathon, together.

One day the son asks his father: Dad would please do the Iron Man with me?'
(Now just in case you wouldn't know, 'The Iron Man' is the toughest triathlon in existence; 4km swimming, then 180 km by bike, and finally another 42 km running, in one stroke).
Again his father says 'YES'

Maybe this doesn't 'touch' you yet by your heart strings... until you see this clip below and turn on the sound

Simple Cleansing Facial Wipes

2008-11-30T06:15:00.000-08:00

As I was flipping through the pages, I stumble across one of the UK No1 cleanser brand. That I soon went out to get a sample for testing. It was as good as it was crowned! Worthy of my penny so I have decided to pen it down for readers. The product that I would recognized is a product of Accantia Health & Beauty Ltd. It is called the “Simple Cleansing Facial Wipes“.

As we all know, perfect moisturizing is essential for healthy, radiant skin and great cleansing prepares the way to obtaining that result. Therefore, it is a crucial matter when it comes to choosing the “right” product to take care of our skin.

For cleansing, I would personally recommend “Simple Cleansing Facial Wipes”. This is as the facial wipes I mention, I would say is effective and quick from my personal experience. You would not believe the result of it! It refreshes and tone our skin while removing all make-up and it even waterproof mascara! Not only so, there are a few other things you should note about this product, which is as below:-

• Basically, it has no perfume and no colouring,
• Most importantly, it is suitable for sensitive skin such as mine as the product ph balanced works in harmony with our skin
• Besides that, Simple is 100% oil free, leaving skin with no greasy residue
• It is also 100% alcohol free which gives us with non-drying, soft and supple skin
• Generally, It is dermatologically tested and approved
• And finally it is a skincare product that contains no animal derived ingredients.

Ps: While using a skincare product, always remember to take note of a product expiration date. This is as we do not want to use expire product on our skin. The chemicals may change due to time and cause damages to our delicate skin.

EPF 8% Means Paying More Income Tax ( For High Income Group )

2008-11-20T00:20:00.000-08:00

Assume monthly basic salary is RM4000.

- If your monthly EPF contribution is 11% ( RM440 ), taxable income = RM3560, income tax payable = RM77.
- If your monthly EPF contribution is 8% ( RM320 ), taxable income = RM3680, income tax payable = RM109.

Conclusion : If you choose to contribute 8%, you will end up paying more
income tax to the government, which will make the government richer. Finance Minister Najib said this measure is meant to boost up the slow-down market, but from this example we see that the money does not go into the market. Instead the money goes direct into the government's pocket throug the greater amount of income tax that we will have to pay. Obviously this measure does not help the market at all. Do we still want this kind of government that doesn't have the best interest of the people in mind?

My 7th Uncle

2008-11-17T18:52:00.000-08:00

This is my 7th uncle. He is originally from Johor but has been staying in Singapore all this while. He is older now. I think he should be about 70 as well. He loves all of us very much. See how happy he sees us? He even asked me to snap a few more for him. He earns a living driving the lorry; he is a lorry driver.

This is the tool that feeds him. His lorry!

It is a very tough life for him. Let me tell you a short story about his family:-

He has 3 sons. 1 well educated and the other 2 averagely educated. It’s not his son’s education we are talking about here. It is that he has 3 (I am so sorry to use this word I couldn’t not think of any that might not sound so harsh) USELESS but educated children and 1 USELESS wife. This is a short description about them. They are educated but incapable of differentiating the right from wrong.

1. His children will ask him to scoop out money for them to get married and etc. They would ask him to finance the entire household in Singapore. They even thought their own children (my uncle’s grandchildren) to always ask money from him. His wife did the same too. If asking money is not a problem, let me tell you more of what happen in the family.

2. When he is sick, his wife! Does not even bother. When he has no money to see doctor his own son and family does not even offer him a little money to visit the doctor… They of all people are all grown up, with hands to work, could not even scoop out a 50 dollar bill… HOPELESS!

3. He would buy the household groceries (rice and etc) they would cook the dinner, finish it, and left him none for dinner. My uncle has to starve. My uncle feed the spoil brats brats (Grandchildren) as well! That their own parents didn’t bother spending a dime to feed their own children.

4. My uncle has no savings as his wife would check every corner everywhere for any single penny. He used to give ALL his salary to his trusted wife and yet his wife treated him like a prisoner like a dog... with no respect. They are greedy.

5. They would quarrel badly that my uncle has to hide chain at the shoe rack for safety. Or even lock him out of his own house…

Many things happen to him. I pity him very much and of course I loved him very much as well. He’s a man that saves a lot for the rainy day. Tried very hard to provide a lot to the family but yet taken for granted. He works very hard daily. He doesn’t keep other women and is very loyal to his wife despite of all the bad treatments from the family.

He’s the man! Worthy of my respect! My wish for him is only the best. Take care my dear uncle. His words for me that day was “study hard so you don’t have to be like me”

80/20 Rule - Lesson of Love

2008-11-16T19:37:00.000-08:00

This is food for thought for many of us... enjoy!! A very valuable lesson to learn …
Interesting quote from the movie 'Why did I get married?'

In most cases, especially in relationships, you will only get 80% of what you NEED and you will hardly get the other 20% that you WANT in your relationship. There is always another person (man or woman) that you will meet and that will offer you the other 20% which is lacking in your relationship that you WANT. And believe me, 20% looks really good when you are not getting it at all in your current relationship.

But the problem is that you will always be tempted to leave that good 80% that you know you have, thinking that you will get something better with the other 20% that you WANT.

But as reality has proven, in most cases, you will always end up with having the 20% that you WANT and loosing the 80% that you really NEED and that you already had. Be careful in deciding between what you WANT and NEED in your life.

Adultery happens when you start looking for what you don't have. 'Wow, this girl in my office is a real looker. But it's not her Wynona Rider features that got me. I'm crazy about her because she's also understanding, intelligent, tender - so many things that my spouse is not.'

Somewhere along the way, you'll find a woman or a man who will be more charming or sensitive. More alluring. More thoughtful. Richer. Have greater sex appeal. And you will find a woman or man who will need you and pursue you and go loco over you more than your spouse ever did.

Because no wife or husband is perfect. Because a spouse will only have 80% of what you're looking for. So adultery takes place when a husband or wife looks for the missing 20%. Let's say your wife is melancholic by nature.

You may find yourself drawn to the pretty clerk who has a cherry laugh no matter what she says: 'I broke my arm yesterday, hahahaha ...'

Or because your wife is a homebody in slippers and pajamas, smelling of garlic and fish oil, you may fall for a fresh-smelling young sales representative that visits your office in a sharp black blazer, high heels, and a red pencil-cut skirt. Or because your husband is the quiet type, your heart may skip a beat when you meet an old college flame who has the makings of a talk show host.

But wait! That's only 20% of what you don't have.

Don't throw away the 80% that you already have!

That's not all. Add to your spouse's 80% the 100% that represents all the years that you have been with each other. The storms you have weathered together. The unforgettable moments of sadness and joy as a couple. The many adjustments you have made to love the other. The wealth of memories that you've accumulated as lovers.

Adultery happens when you start looking for what you don't have.
But faithfulness happens when you start thanking God for what you already have.

But I'm not just talking about marriage. I'm talking about life!
About your jobs.
About your friends.
About your children.
About your lifestyles.

Are you like the economy airline passenger that perennially peeks through the door of the first class cabin, obsessed with what he's missing? 'They have got more leg room! Oh my, their food is served in porcelain! Wow, their seats recline at an 80% angle and they've got personal videos!'

I guarantee you'll be miserable for the entire trip! Don't live your life like that. Forget about what the world says is first class. Do you know that there are many first class passengers who are miserable in first class -- because they are not riding in a private Lear Jet?

The main message???

If you start appreciating what you have right now, wherever you are, you are first class!

Husband and Wife 1

2008-11-16T19:29:00.000-08:00

Dear Wife:

I'm writing you this letter to tell you that I'm leaving you for good. I've been a good man to you for seven years and I have nothing to show for it. These last two weeks have been hell. Your boss called to tell me that you had quit your job today and that was the last straw. Last week, you came home and didn't even notice that I had gotten a new hair cut, cooked your favorite meal and even wore a brand new pair of silk boxers. You came home and ate in two minutes, and went straight to sleep after watching all of your soaps. You don't tell me you love me anymore, you don't want sex anymore or anything. Either you’re cheating on me or you don't love me anymore, whatever the case is, I’m gone.

Your EX-Husband

P.S. Don't try to find me. Your SISTER and I are moving away to West Virginia together! Have a great life!

Dear Ex-Husband -

Nothing has made my day more than receiving your letter. It's true that you and I have been married for seven years, although a good man is a far cry from what you've been. I watch my soaps so much because they drown out your constant whining and griping. Too bad that doesn't work. I did notice when you got a hair cut last week, the first thing that came to mind was "You look just like a girl!" but my mother raised me not to say anything if you can't say anything nice. And when you cooked my favorite meal, you must have gotten me confused with MY SISTER, because I stopped eating pork seven years ago. I turned away from you when you had those new silk boxers on because the price tag was still on them. I prayed that it was a coincidence that my sister had just borrowed fifty dollars from me that morning ... and your silk boxers were $49.99. After all of this, I still loved you and felt that we could work it out.

So when I discovered that I had hit the lotto for ten million dollars, I quit my job and bought us two tickets to Jamaica. But when I got home you were gone. Everything happens for a reason I guess.

I hope you have the fulfilling life you always wanted. My lawyer said that with your letter that you wrote, you won't get a dime from me. So take care.

Signed

Rich As Hell and Free!

P.S. I don't know if I ever told you this but Carla, my sister, was born Carl. I hope that's not a problem.

It is a cup from Kah Seong. Well it is not a direct present but it is a Christmas exchange gift back then in Accenovate. Now, I use it daily to practice drinking my 2 liters of water.

Today: November 10, 2008

2008-11-09T20:11:00.000-08:00

Today November 10, 2008 is the second Monday of working in BDO. Today I brought McD “Hello Kitty -work hard” doll to work. This is a doll given by my dear friend Lewis from Hong Kong back then when I was working in Accenovate. I brought it to work today. I believe it is to encourage me to continuously work hard while working lol…

In this picture is the Hello Kitty doll in orange dress. From here you can see it is sitting on my cubical table on the phone. Behind is “the office”. Somewhere on the left near the brown cupboard is the exit. Well, behind me? Is where all the Director’s are.

My 6th Uncle

2008-11-09T18:35:00.000-08:00

Above is my 6th uncle (The 6th brother of my mom). Saw him on the third day on the trip in Johor with mom. Me and my siblings call him “Aku” in mandarin. He works in Johor Baru if I am not mistaken… Well couldn’t remember much of him though besides going back to visit him every new year. He’s a grandpa now and age about 70++. Lastly, he looks tan and smiley!

As you know, vegetable generally known as the edible parts of plants can basically be planted at home. His past time includes managing his garden of vegetables. Some of the vegetables, such as carrots, bell peppers and celery, are eaten either raw or cooked; while others are eaten only when cooked.

This is how his mini garden looks like:-

Please see below the snapshots on some of many kind of vegetables planted. Some I don’t even know what it is called maybe you can help by providing me the names ;) TQ. :-

1) Lady fingers also known as the Okra.

2) Aloe vera

3) Ground nuts (To see this, you will need to pull this plant out! Haha)

4) Small chili

5) Ribena Flower (According to my uncle, he say it is used to make Ribena juice)

6) Don’t know what you call this, the Malays eat it raw whilst the Chinese eat is simple cook. I think its call the "serai" is it?

** Thanks Billy, yes I've forgotten it. Its name is Season bean!

7) This is a fruit. Don’t know what it is called as well. But it’s a fruit that can be eaten and the inside looks like a soursop!.

** Billy I also know this is "how mow lao lin" hahaha Just don't know what it is called in English ;p

Sincerely, I do encourage planting as a hobby. If it is vegetables, BETTER! You can eat home planted vegetables whereby not only it is healthier, you also don’t have to waste time purchasing all from the market. I encourage mom to do the planting too ;) I think I should spend some time to get my hands dirty!

November 8, 2008

2008-11-09T18:02:00.000-08:00

I opened my computer cupboard upstairs in sister’s room today. In it were huge findings. Among the things I found in the cupboard includes:-

• Bracelets, necklaces and jade given by my late grandmother… It reminds me of how much love she has for me “although” the most loved in the family is still the younger one with “one eye snake”.
• In there I found a musical box in yellow. I tried my best to recall who was it from? I think it is from Patricia Yap. Someone I thought fondly of. Drifted and lost contact after high schools and got contacted again while studying in KTAR after that, gone again… Jesus Christ! I’m so bad in keeping contacts! But from facebook, I see you are doing great and I’m glad to know you are!
• Parker pen with the box and casing nicely intact. I know this is definitely from mommy! She gave it to me when I was having my UPSR. I can’t believe the pen is still nicely kept in the box and I totally forgotten about it…
• A pair of Kenji earrings. It is from one of my ex. Liked it very much and didn’t want to wear it… I wonder how is he now. We separated not on good terms.
• A bracelet again from another ex. As my wrist was too small I could not wear it… It is still nicely kept in its original box along with grandmothers jade bracelets and necklace.
• A letter knife that I use to liked a lot. It is still nice and shining. The knife’s design is plain and simple. I think the number of letters open by it should be less than 20 after so many years of keeping. “lol”
• A mini bus from my younger brother… Must have been because you were often very naughty sometimes the good deeds done by you were neglected. Looking at the bus reminds me the human side of you. I’m very sorry my dear brother. I still love you as much but I think I’ve started to neglect you too. From the difficult time you gave us, it’s hard to think of you but yet not feeling frustrated. In the end, we couldn’t even bother much anymore… We’ve been thinking so much for you I think its time for you to be independent.
• Gifts from sister’s younger days. Such as bricks from visits, key chains, shells and etc.
• A doll from Kim Fatt. He bought it when he was eating beef noodles. It’s been a long time since I heard from you too. After you married you couldn’t even keep contact with us because she’s a quick to jealous person…
• A sandalwood ladies fan from daddy ;)
• Memories of Nomis, nicely documented. Good god… I’ve missed you so much…
• A photo frame from sister during the younger days. To my surprise the picture wasn’t me with my sister it was me with Joyce Chan. My secondary school mate. How are you girl? Still in Australia? I think you should have start working by now aye?

In it were my many memories. You couldn’t believe how many years ago were those things. If I did not keep any of it, I could have lost all the fond memories I have with every one of you… Boy how I treasure those times.

PedEgg Professional - Foot File

2008-11-09T17:35:00.000-08:00

Last Sunday on the way back from Johor, a group of 8 came up to KL. My aunt, uncle, 1 little girl, mom and I were the 8. We stop for breakfast in Batu Pahat market and saw the foot file below. We bought a total of 4 files. My comment on the product is as below.

The name of the product is PedEgg Professional. PedEgg is a precision foot file, specially designed to help eliminate calluses and dry skin on the feet. Frequent usage of PedEgg helps in removing crack heels and rough hands too. It’s like having a professional spa treatment right in your own home. It also so cheap that beauty can be purchase at a cost of RM 10 only!

Ps: Personally I did not do the filings. My mom did and it really worked on her crack heels…

Liver Damage - Don't Always Sleep Late

2008-10-27T08:43:00.000-07:00

Take note...don't always sleep late!!

Good rest and sound sleep is very Important... if you don't sleep well, the toxic in your body will accumulate.. Affecting your health and your mood...

The main causes of liver damage are:
1. Sleeping too late and waking up too late are the main cause.
2. Not urinating in the morning.
3. Too much eating.
4. Skipping breakfast.
5. Consuming too much medication.
6. Consuming too much preservatives, additives, food coloring, and artificial sweetener.
7. Consuming unhealthy cooking oil. As much as possible reduce cooking oil use when frying, which includes even the best cooking oils like olive oil. Do not consume fried foods when you are tired, except if the body is very fit.
8. Consuming overly done foods also add to the burden of liver. Veggies should be eaten raw or cooked 3-5 parts. Fried veggies should be finished in one sitting, do not store.

We just have to adopt a good daily lifestyle and eating habits. Maintaining good eating habits and time condition are very important for our body to absorb and get rid of unnecessary chemicals according to 'schedule.'

Because:

Evening at 9 - 11pm : is the time for eliminating unnecessary/ toxic chemicals (detoxification) from the antibody system (lymph nodes). This time duration should be spent by relaxing or listening to music. If during this time a housewife is still in an unrelaxed state such as washing the dishes or monitoring children doing their homework, this will have a negative impact on her health.

Evening at 11pm - 1am: The de-toxification process in the liver, and ideally should be done in a deep sleep state. Early morning 1 - 3am: de-toxification process in the gall, also ideally done in a deep sleep state.

Early morning 3 - 5am: de-toxification in the lungs. Therefore there will sometimes be a severe cough for cough sufferers during this time. Since the de-toxification process had reached the respiratory tract, there is no need to take cough medicine so as not to interfere with toxin removal process.

Morning 5 - 7am: de-toxification in the colon, you should empty your bowel.

Morning 7 - 9am: Absorption of nutrients in the small intestine, you should be having breakfast at this time. Breakfast should be earlier, before 6:30am, for those who are sick. Breakfast before 7:30am is very beneficial to those wanting to stay fit. Those who always skip breakfast, they should change their habits, and it is still better to eat breakfast late until 9 -10am rather than no meal at all. Sleeping so late and waking up too late will disrupt the process of removing unnecessary chemicals. Aside from that, midnight to 4am is the time when the bone marrow produces blood.

Therefore, have a good sleep and don't sleep late.

How To Protect Your Email Aaddress Book From Worms Or Virus

2008-10-27T05:22:00.000-07:00

A computer expert says this is one of the best tips ever!

It's really ingenious in its simplicity.

As you may know, when/if a worm virus gets into your computer it heads straight for your email address book, and sends itself to everyone in there, thus infecting all your friends and associates.

This trick won't keep the virus from getting into your computer, but it will stop it from using your address book to spread further, and it will alert you to the fact that the worm has gotten into your system.

Here's what you do:

First, open your address book and click on 'new contact,' just as you would do if you were adding a new friend to your list of email addresses.

In the window where you would type your friend's first name, type in 'A'.

For the screen name or email address, type 'AAAAAAA@AAA. AAA'

Now, here's what you've done and why it works:

The name ' A' will be placed at the top of your address book as entry #1. This will be where the worm will start in an effort to send itself to all your friends. When it tries to send itself to AAAAAAA@AAA. AAA, it will be undeliverable because of the phony email address you entered. If the first attempt fails (which it will because of the phony address), the worm goes no further and your friends will not be infected.

Here's the second great advantage of this method: If an email cannot be delivered, you will be notified of this in your In Box almost immediately. Hence, if you ever get an email telling you that an email addressed to AAAAAAA@AAA. AAA could not be delivered, you know right away that you have the worm virus in your system. You can then take steps to get rid of it!

Pretty slick huh?

If everybody you know does this then you need not ever worry about opening mail from friends.

The doctor is worried that the old man is getting senile, so he phones the man's son, and the son's wife answers.

The doctor tells her, 'Mrs. Lim, I'm a little concerned about your father-in-law. It seems that when he gets up to urinate at night and opens the bathroom door, the light somehow goes on....'

At which point, Mrs. Lim yells, 'Aiyoh, Ah Seng! Ah Pa pang jio in the fridge again!'

Cab - Incident 1 (HWC 6485)

2008-09-11T19:13:00.000-07:00

Today (September 12, 2008) I took a ride in the cab number HWC 6485. It is a Muslim cab driver. This will allow easy identification of the cab and the actual unethical driver. This is what happen from the first sight of the cab.

I open the door and request the cab if he wants to drive to Phileo Damansara from Masjid Jamek. I have this practiced out of courtesy considering sometimes they are rather choosy on their passengers and destination.

Then after the cab driver nod his head and say yes, I have myself seated neatly in the car and closed the door. The driver waited for a moment and started asking. This is the conversation between me and him...

Driver: "Do you want to go in or be dropped at the road side"
I said : "go in".
Driver: **Think for a while then said rudely "If you want to go in you have to pay additional RM2. I don't want to be fine RM2 for the 5 minutes incurred & it's puasa month... "
I said : "Okay go ahead"

Silent all the way with a reckless driver. In the end, the driver left me right inside Phileo. I gave him a rounded amount with additional tips. I also show him the way out and told him about the parking token. He was so SO lucky! Because I hold myself from barking back at him.

In this story I would like to highlight the below:-
1. Don’t wait until the passenger ride the cab only you voice your concern. It may lead the passenger into thinking the cab driver is trying to con them out of their money.
2. Don’t request for additional money from passenger unless given willingly by the passenger. It shows the passenger how unethical you are. This is because you did not follow the standard charges enforced by the government.
3. I know about the god damn 5 minutes. I won’t make you drive in a loss. I did not say anything about not paying you. So please do not be god damn rude to the passenger!
4. You are in the service industry. Never ever be rude or show face to your passenger. You should practice a level of professionalism. So be COURTEOUS!
5. Also, as a driver, please drive carefully. If you don't care about your own god damn life, think about mine! You want to die quickly go ahead no one is stopping you! Just don't do it when I am around. I have no interest of dying with you!
6. By the way, this is the puasa month. I think this is the month where you committed bad doings. Please stand a side and regret for you doings! Puasa month is not an excuse for you to request for additional money and do bad.

** So furious with the driver almost decided to write this in two language!
** If only you are there to hear how it was spoken in Malay! Mine was nicely written. His is spoken in Malay with a god damn rude tune!

You're Always by my side

2008-09-11T00:40:00.000-07:00

A very 'touching' story titled...."You're Always By My Side"

A man was walking across the road when he met with an accident. The impact was on his head which caused him to be in a coma for 2 days. When he opened his eyes, his wife was by his side.

He told her (in tears), "When I was struggling with my studies in the University, I failed again and again. Sometimes I even have to re-take my papers. You were there by my side, encouraging me to go on trying."

She squeezed his hands as he continued, "When I went for major interviews and failed to clinch any of the jobs, you were there, cutting out the job ads for me to apply..."

He added, " ...then I started working in this little firm and finally got a big contract. I blew it because of a small mistake. But you are still there for me." His wife was in tears.

The man said, "I finally got a job after being laid off for quite some
time. But I never seem to be promoted and my hard work was not recognized. I remained in the same position from the day I joined the company till now. You are still beside me..."

His wife's tears trickled down as she listened to him, "And now I met with an accident and when I woke up, you are here with me. There's something I'll really like to say to you..."

She flung herself on the bed and hug her husband, sobbing with deep emotion.

Finally her husband said,

"I think you bring me bad luck."

Leonna Lewis - Better In Time

2008-09-04T01:24:00.001-07:00

It's been the longest winter without you
I didn't know where to turn to
See somehow I can't forget you
After all that we've been through

Going coming thought I heard a knock
Who's there no one?
Thinking that I deserve it
Now I realize that I really didn't know
If you didn't notice you mean everything
Quickly I'm learning to love again
All I know is I gonna be ok

Chorus:**
** Thought I couldn't live without you
** It's gonna hurt when it heals too
** It'll all get better in time
** And even though I really love you
** I'm gonna smile cause I deserve to
** It'll all get better in time

I couldn't turn on the TV
Without something there to remind me
Was it all that easy?
To just put aside your feelings

If I'm dreaming don't wanna laugh
Hurt my feelings but that's the path
I believe in
And I know that time will heal it
If you didn't notice boy you meant everything
Quickly I'm learning to love again
All I know is I’ll gonna ok

Repeat Chorus **

Since there's no more you and me
It's time I let you go
So I can be free
And live my life how it should be
No matter how hard it is I'll be fine without you
Yes I will

Repeat Chorus ** x2

Boring Eat Book Of Mine

2008-09-04T00:00:00.000-07:00

The title of this posting is "Boring Eat Book Of Mine". It is also label as "Boring Eat Book Of Mine". It is categorize this way because this is where I record my daily eating habit and a brief description on the happening of the days.

This will allow me to know what I eat daily. I have it written to share the daily menus, the type of food eaten and maybe the location. Through this, I can actually track my own eating pattern.

I have very unhealthy eating pattern. I am also very choosy in my daily food intake. It is highly affected by my mood which will directly and indirectly impact my health.

I have allergy to certain food. So I have taken this opportunity to record my eating habit as I know it will make me guilty for not taking care of myself. From there I will expect myself to watch my diet seriously as advice by my family doctor.

Hopefully it helps ;) Maybe you can try spotting me at such locations...

Do have a nice day everyone!

Macy Gray - I Try

2008-09-03T23:08:00.000-07:00

Games, changes and fears
When will they go from here?
When will they stop?
I believe that fate has brought us here
And we should be together babe
But were not
I play it off, but I’m dreaming of you
And I’ll try to keep my cool, but I’m feeling

Chorus:**
** I try to say goodbye and I choke
** Try to walk away and I stumble
** Though I try to hide it, it’s clear
** My world crumbles when you are not here
** Goodbye and I choke
** I try to walk away and I stumble
** Though I try to hide it, it’s clear
** My world crumbles when you are not here

I may appear to be free
But I’m just a prisoner of your love
And I may seem all right and smile when you leave
But my smiles are just a front
Just a front, hey
I play it off, but I’m dreaming of you
And I’ll try to keep my cool, but I’m feeling

Repeat Chorus **

Here is my confession
May I be your possession?
Boy, I need your touch
Your love, kisses and such
With all my might I try
But this I can’t deny
Deny

I play it off, but I’m dreaming of you
(but I’m dreaming of you babe)
And I’ll keep my cool, but I’m feeling

Repeat Chorus **

Goodbye and I choke (Im choking)
I try to walk away and I stumble
Though I try to hide it, its clear
My world crumbles when you are not near
(when you are not near, yeah, yeah yeah)
Yeah, yeah..

Rihanna - Take A Bow Lyrics

2008-09-03T21:16:00.000-07:00

Ohh, how about a round of applause
Yeah, standing ovation
Oooh ohh yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah

You look so dumb right now
Standing outside my house
Trying to apologize
You're so ugly when you cry
Please, just cut it out

An' don't tell me you're sorry 'cause you're not
Baby when I know you're only sorry you got caught

Chorus: **
** But you put on quite a show
** Really had me going
** But now it's time to go
** Curtain's finally closing
** That was quite a show
** Very entertaining
** But it's over now (but it's over now)
** Go on and take a bow

Grab your clothes and get gone (get gone)
You better hurry up before the sprinklers come on
Talkin' about, girl, I love you, you're the one
This just looks like a re-run
Please, what else is on (ohh)

And don't tell me you're sorry 'cause you're not
Baby when I know you're only sorry you got caught

Repeat Chorus **

Ohh, and the award for best liar goes to you
For making me believe that you could be faithful to me
Let's hear your speech out

How about a round of applause
A standing ovation

Repeat Chorus **

But it's over now

September 2, 2008 - Flown in from Hong Kong

2008-09-02T00:27:00.000-07:00

A while ago we have a bunch of funny friends that came from Hong Kong. First come Jerry, then come Lewis and last came Steve.

Although we were all not very close, but I cannot deny that their stay in Malaysia “enlightens" the atmosphere in the office. The office was less quiet. Their stay last for two to three weeks.

Then again Steve came back from Hong Kong today carrying gifts for us. We did not do anything to deserve gifts... Below is the few presents given.

From Lewis A McD wrapper that, at first I was thinking what it was. After a shake or two, the sound from the box says it was a soft toy. Then after, I open the wrapper and found a box. Guess what it was! It is a Hello Kitty doll. On the box it writes "Work Hard \(>_<)/". It is pretty inspiring.

Message to Lewis: Thanks for the doll. I like the inspiring words but I never like Hello Kitty ;( That cat has no mouth. I never like cat... I like the wrapper, the box but not Hello Kitty. Sorry about that.

From Steve 2 mini can of sweets from "Disney". Well we do not know if it is actually from "Disney" hehe... I don’t take sweets Steve. Thanks though because I love the mini can. It is very suitable for me to put my meds.

From Jerry and Lewis (again): A box of facial whitening essence mask. If only you can see the look on my face when I saw it. Where in the world are there "TWO" guys give a female that? Yeap, you find it here from Hong Kong. According to those two adorable guys, they bought that thinking female loves beauty products. So they decided to give us a box of mask.

Comment:

1) You guys are so adorable besides a boyfriend buying that, or bringing their girlfriend to make purchase on beauty product with them, I never thought you would do that!

2) Of all things, a mask as gift. I can’t help but think that because you love us so much and afraid we might look old and ugly, you bought us THAT... It might be a hint for us working girls should really do take care of our youthful skin while we are still young. Do not wait until you are old with wrinkles to do so. Hehe, therapy will be of no help especially when it is too late.

3) In conclusion I think you two are pretty unique to think of buying a box of mask as gift. Tell me is this a cultural kind of things that resulted in such unique gifts? I sincerely think that you two are very thoughtful guy to think of it.

Thank you all. Next time don’t waste money buying things. I don’t know about the others but to me it is not all about the material or the things. It is the hidden intangible value that counts. I will still treasure it as much even if it is just a wrapper ;)

Saturday morning started with mount climbing.

The breakfast of the day is in Sri Petaling at 11am to 2.30pm. It lasted for hours because my friend Billy and I were busy chit chatting. It has been a long time since we last met. The brunch of the day...

1) A variety of Dim sum with
2) Chinese tea

The tea was enjoying as we sat there and enjoy the moment while sipping tea under the shades of the trees.

Four to five hours later is dinner. Aunt Elaine decided not to cook dinner today so she bought home "Nasi Kukus" (Direct translated: steam rice). The steam rice taste good. The rice unlike others was not sticky and it was still warm. The content of "Nasi kukus" was not only the rice, it also have got a chicken drumstick, cucumber, nuts and some sambal sauce. "Nasi Kukus" is quite similar to a local Malaysian dish name "Nasi Lemak" but the difference between them is that "Nasi Lemak" has egg and "Nasi kukus" none.

Late in the evening at about eight to nine, I late some supper. Among the food consume includes...

1) A bowl of soup "Cashew nuts with chicken"
2) Lo Hon Ko herbal tea
3) "Egg tea" also known as "Kai Tan Cha" in Cantonese.

I think I had a lot to eat today. So worry that I'm going fat.
** Please god don't make me fat.

Today is a Friday. Two days to the National day.

Because I was terribly late caught in a jam in Kuala Lumpur due to the National day marching rehearsal I had no breakfast this morning. It took me two and a half hour to go to the office today. Damn good record...

Lunch in Section 17: 1.15pm to 2pm sharp return to the office.

As I was superb late today and I had no breakfast, I have a little more to eat during lunch. I had my lunch with Yeon, Ed and Joyce. The food of the day is...

1) The famous Penang Char Kuey Teow
2) Bulls eye egg
3) Lor Hon Ko as my drink of the day.

Due to the ever change weather these days, we must always drink more herbal tea to cool down the heat in our body.

As for dinner is at downstairs Fatimah Restaurant: 7pm.

Today have got classes after work and due to the heavy "brunch" I only have "cucur udang" for dinner (Aka prawn cracker).

Later the night when I return home, I had chicken chop. Aunt Elaine is a good cook, unfortunately the chicken sucked. I only have a few chew and had to wrap up the chicken with blotter and threw it into the dustbin. Hopefully she never finds it (@'.'@)~

Good morning! Today's breakfast is...

1) 1/2 cup of milo with

Family (mom): Mom's Love & The watch (August 23, 2008)

2008-08-26T01:50:00.000-07:00

My mom, she's a very simple woman. Last Saturday she bought me a watch. This is how the watch looks like.

Thanks mom, I like it very much. I really do! The reason why she bought me a watch is because I simple have none. This is due to my numerous histories of sudden disappearing watches.

About the disappearing of watches, I can explain. This, we will have to start talking about my habit of wearing watches. Many, who know me, knew I always have a watch on my wrist. I never seem to take them off even when I go to bath or sleep or swim, in short, it is 24 to 7 on my wrist. Them (the watch) disappearing from my sight seems tough. Unfortunately so, "Yes it does", cuz several mornings I woke up and one watch gone. There goes another and so does another and another.... The number of watch I have lost? Erm... numerous ;) Till today, I don’t know where they ended up.

Again back to my mom, she's a very simple and humble woman. Just like my grandmother did. Why I would label her a simple woman is because of her live, full time housewife and the only thing she's worried about is how to be a good mother. She thinks she isn’t a good mother when she's no longer washing my clothes. Ain’t she lovable?

Anyway it was not all about her simplicity or all the missing watches. I was suppose to highlight how touch I am she bought me a watch... Along with the watch she said to me "I'm sorry I cannot afford something fancy or branded. I hope you'd like it despite it being very cheap."

Oh my god, mom! You almost put me in tears. It’s not the brand or the cost; I'd love anything from you, anything! & like I say above, I like it very much. In fact, it is very thoughtful of you.

The 7th Ray of Memoirs – My treasure!

2008-08-19T18:10:00.000-07:00

The day was hot. We cannot wait to get it over and done with…

I walked in, greeted the madam seated at the counter and started strolling shelves after shelves looking at every single stones available even in the deepest corner. I was busy looking at the variety of crystals displayed at the shop with all my other friends. It was thought to be like any other day. It was the last stay of my trip there.

They gathered round the counter talking to the friendly lady serving. Me, I am still looking for the right stones. Choosing which one to pick out of the thousands is often a very difficult decision to make. After pointing out a few, I return to the counter to get a sit before I finalized which one to purchase.

Sitting at the counter and looking at the variety of stones introduced. The man of the house was busy introducing, show and also pointed at the stones one over another. He was busy with his introduction and me with my bargaining for a better price.

I STILL DID NOT NOTICE!

Mrs. Tan at the counter started to divert her conversation to me. “So it’s been a long time since I saw you, how are you doing?”, “I’m fine thank you. Yes, it’s been a long time, haha I’ve been busy.” She handed over a name card to everyone then me and she said “Let me introduce, this is my son! And that is his name card.” She pointed at the guy in red in between one of the shelves.
NOW THAT is when I notice the stranger my friends were talking to! He was the guy Looi was chatting to happily. Okay so she wasn’t on a call! He blushed and laughed then he said “Hi, I’m Ray!”. I stretched my hands out and shake his. “Well, nice to meet you. I’m Ching.” Everyone started introducing themselves to him and then my attention was drawn back to his mom.

Looking at me she said to everyone “My son is still single, are you single? It would be great if you can introduce anyone nice to him…” Are you kidding me? Your contacts and his is broader then mine. You don’t need me to introduce any! I saw him shy off saying that it’s embarrassing and suggested us to divert to another topic.

That was when his dad looked over and says “Ah, Yes, that’s my son!” so proud of him that he was, he then continued with his introduction on the collections…

******************

That day, after I left the shop, I actually issued a SMS out to him and I wrote “AH, So I do know you, they told me you were the guy who frequents Nesturn, the guy who owns the shop! No wonder why you seem rather familiar.”

On our first conversation he said “I was very surprised how smart my mom was to hand over my name card. She understands me very well and knows what I’d like. She gave me a shock with what she did and my dad too! He’s never like this before. Can you remember how he look over half way and introduced me to you and you only?” To tell you the truth I did not noticed that. Knowing the nature of mine, it’s hard for me not to be careless and notice details.

Most of your words are still freshly carved in my memory. He talked a lot that night. One that meant a lot that night was you saying “Remember that SMS? I was hoping so hard. Hoping it was you on the other line. My mom asked me to call and ask if it was you. Indeed it was you! I need to thank my mom. If not, I would not have found you.” From his voice, one can tell he was with joy so happy that he carried a smile all the way while talking.

Here I know, he has set his eyes on me when I walked into the shop. His eyes followed me throughout the entire transaction. He has set strong determination to make me his and I am the lucky girl picked. It wasn’t any ordinary day after all, because I’ve found you too!

** Nesturn is a café I visited frequently. They have singers who perform on stage. Well, it’s a lonely night nothing much you can do if not to catch up with friends. I saw him there frequently but was not properly introduced.

2008-07-26T20:36:00.000-07:00

Dubbed by American relationship expert Lucia Demasi. It is said that Women with Post Traumatic Dating Disorder(PTDD) respond irrationally to small provocations in relationships. They assume the worst for no logical reason, based on what’s happened to them in the past.

•You’re always looking for signs of rejection
•You have flashbacks to prior similar situations

Taylor Swift - Teardrops On My Guitar

2008-07-23T01:24:00.000-07:00

Drew looks at me, I fake a smile so he won't see
That I want and I need everything that we should be
I'll bet she's beautiful, that girl he talks about
And she's got everything that I have to live without

Drew talks to me, I laugh cause it's just so funny
That I can't even see anyone when he's with me
He says he's so in love, he's finally got it right,
I wonder if he knows he's all I think about at night

Chorus: **

He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star
He's the song in the car I keep singing, don't know why I do

Drew walks by me, can he tell that I can't breathe?
And there he goes, so perfectly,
The kind of flawless I wish I could be
She'd better hold him tight, give him all her love
Look in those beautiful eyes and know she's lucky cause

Repeat Chorus **

So I drive home alone, as I turn out the light
I'll put his picture down and maybe
Get some sleep tonight

He's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only one who's got enough of me to break my heart
He's the song in the car I keep singing, don't know why I do
He's the time taken up, but there's never enough
And he's all that I need to fall into..

Drew looks at me, I fake a smile so he won't see.

Texas - Say What You Want

2008-07-22T19:35:00.000-07:00

Twenty seconds on the back time
I feel you're on the run
Never lived too long to make right
I see you're doing fine

And when I get that feeling
I can no longer slide
I can no longer run
Ah no no
And when I get that feeling
I can no longer hide
For it's no longer fun
Ah no no

Chorus:**
** Well, you can say what you want
** But it won't change my mind
** I'll feel the same
** About you
** And you can tell me your reasons
** But it won't change my feelings
** I'll feel the same
** About you

What I am is what you want of me
Yeh, now that I'm not there
I took the tables away from you
It's turned that I don't care

And when I get that feeling
I can no longer slide
I can no longer run
Ah no no
And when I get that feeling
I can no longer hide
For it's no longer fun
Ah no no

Repeat chorus ** [x2]

I've said goodnight
Try to sleep tight
Ah just dream of me
Go close your eyes
Cause I've closed mine
The sun will shine from time to time
Oh, when you dream of me, yeh

Repeat Chorus **

Mariah Carey - Bye Bye

2008-07-22T19:17:00.000-07:00

This is for my peoples
Who just lost somebody
Your best friend, your baby
Your man or your lady
Put your hand way up high
We will never say bye
No, no, no

Mamas, daddies, sisters, brothers
Friends and cousins
This is for my peoples
Who lost their grandmothers
Lift your head to the sky
Cause we will never say bye

As a child there were them times
I didn’t get it
But you kept me in line
I didn’t know why
You didn’t show up sometimes
On Sunday mornings and I missed you
But I’m glad we talked through

All them grown folk things
Separation brings
You never let me know it
You never let it show
Because you loved me and obviously
There’s so much more left to say
If you were with me today
Face to face

Chorus:**
** I never knew I could hurt like this
** And everyday life goes on I wish
** I could talk to you for a while
** Miss you but I try not to cry
** As time goes by

** And it’s true that you’ve
** Reached a better place
** Still I’d give the world to see your face
** And be right here next to you
** But it’s like you’re gone too soon
** Now the hardest thing to do is say

** Bye bye
** Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye
** Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye
** Bye bye, bye bye, bye bye
** Bye bye

You never got a chance to see
How good I’ve done
And you never got to
See me back at number one
I wish that you were here
To celebrate together
I wish that we could
Spend the holidays together

I remember when you used to
Tuck me in at night
With the teddy bear you gave me
That I held so tight
I thought you were so strong
You’d make it through whatever
It’s so hard to accept the fact
You’re gone forever

Repeat Chorus **

This is for my peoples
Who just lost somebody
Your best friend, your baby
Your man or your lady
Put your hand way up high
We will never say bye

Mamas, daddies, sisters, brothers
Friends and cousins
This is for my peoples
Who lost their grandmothers
Lift your head to the sky
Cause we will never say bye, bye.

Repeat Chorus **

Ne-ne - Trip to HK (May 22 - May 25, 2008)

2008-07-21T02:06:00.000-07:00

Hi, my name is Ne Ne. This is my first time flying. Guess where I am heading to? Well, my first flight is to Hong Kong & I got the window sit. The flight to Hong Kong takes about 3 to 4 hours long. Ouch my back hurts!... What to do cheap flight with Air Asia ;p Few hours later...

Upon landing in Hong Kong International Airport, the first thing I spotted was Fu Shan.

That dish serve is in mango flavour with pudding and pamelo! Aw, Delicious!

This is the place where I spend my first evening. Look, Victoria Peak! Its freezing up here, look at the heavy mist behind with absolutely anything but a view... How I wish to include more pictures if not because of the slow Internet connection.

It is very windy up here. I wonder what can I see from here?

Look this is my hotel room in Hong Kong, South China Hotel! & That's me lying on the bed! Ahh what an adventurous trip I have today.

Today is my second last day in Hong Kong... Aww how time passes by so quickly, like sand slipping through our fingers... Now that behind me is the Buddha statue in Lantau Island... To come here you will have to take a cable car ride across the river. Long way to go.

OMG, the stair behind is so long. I think I'll have trouble climbing considering the size of my belly!

After a long 45 minutes later, I'm finally at the highest area. Honey, look at how beautiful the clouds are behind me! How I wish badly you are here to share the scenery... Dont worry I'll be thinking about you ALL the time (@'.'@) ~ **Blush

** Hehe cant resist the temptation of putting my cute looks with the ticket I use to travel while I am in Hong Kong ;) Now THAT they say is the most affordable travelling ticket in Hong Kong! HKD 300 = 3 Days of travel on "ALL" tracks inclusive of 2 way tickets to and from the Hong Kong airport! Ooops also the deposits! By the way, this is my last day in Hong Kong. The picture is taken in the Hong Kong airport before I part with my travelling tickets. Muacks Hong Kong! I'm going to miss you.

** These are the only picture I can attach currently about my Hong Kong trip ;p Others? Maybe next time.

Rob Thomas - Little Wonder

2008-07-21T00:43:00.000-07:00

Let it go, let it roll right off your shoulder,
Don't you know, the hardest part is over, let it in,
Let your clarity define you in the end,
You will only just remember how it feels.

Chorus: **
** Our lives are made, in these small hours, these little wonders
** These twisted turns of fate, time falls away,
** But these small hours, these small hours, still remain.

Let it slide, let your troubles fall behind you, let it stand,
Till you feel it all around you,
And I don't mind if it's me you need to turn to, we'll get by,
It's the heart that really matters in the end.

Repeat Chorus **

All of my regret, will wash away somehow,
But I cannot forgive the way I feel right now.
In these small hours, these little wonders, these twisted turns of fate,
All these twisted turns of fate, these twisted turns of fate
Yeah, times falls away

But these small hours, these small hours, still remain.
They still remain, these little wonders, all these twisted turns of fate
time falls away, but these small hours, these little wonders
Still remain.

Nick Lachey - I Can't Hate You Anymore

2008-07-21T00:15:00.000-07:00

An empty room can be so deafening,
The silence makes you wanna scream,
It drives you crazy.
I chased away the shadows of your name,
And burned the picture in a frame,
But it couldn't save me.

And how could we quit something we never even tried,
Well you still can't tell me why.

Chorus: **
** We built it up,
** To watch it fall.
** Like we meant nothing at all.
** I gave and gave the best of me,
** But couldn't give you what you need.
** You walked away,
** You stole my life,
** Just to find what you're looking for.
** But no matter how I try,
** I can't hate you anymore
...I can't hate you anymore.

You're not the person that you used to be,
The one I want who wanted me,
And that's a shame but,
There's only so many tears that you can cry.
Before it drains the light right from your eyes,
And I can't go on that way.
And so I'm letting go of everything we were,
It doesn't mean it doesn't hurt.

Repeat chorus **

Sometimes you hold so tight,
It slips right through your hands.
Will I ever understand?

Repeat chorus **[x2]
