Munmun's Trail : : 敏子の迹

凌晨时分... @ 4/1/2012

2012-01-06T20:46:00.006+08:00

凌晨时分... 望着房间窗外那将近圆满的明月, 眼泪不禁不觉地往下掉~ 5个多月, 24个星期之后, 依然如是...

我并不是个害怕寂寞的人, 也不是个患有情绪病的病人, 只是... 在夜深人静的时候, 我的眼泪就会不由自主地涌出~ 不是因为不堪寂寞, 不是因为孤独独处, 而是... 心还是很痛很痛 (T.T)

2012 New Year Resolution @ 1/1/2012

2012-01-01T00:48:00.014+08:00

Happy New Year 2012! : )

Let’s see… If Y2012 is really the end of the World, this is the only year or perhaps less than a year that I could live. It seems that I can’t waste anymore time, thus, I’ve made below resolutions:-

To earn / tunnel more $ so that I can survive a better life.
To watch out my diet with 3-5kg variance in between.
To buy / invest a property. Anyone interested?
To travel at least 2 trips, Japan / Taiwan / Australia & 1 inbound trip are my Y2012 travel options.
To find my Mr. Right still... Very much depends on fate, conditional tolerate & time perhaps.

~ With my finger crossed… ~

巾帼枭雄2之义海豪情 - 刘醒与九姑娘之情 @ 31/12/2011

2012-01-01T00:37:00.008+08:00

Astro 华丽台今晚刚刚播完 [ 巾帼枭雄Rosy Business 2 之义海豪情 ]... 而我也因此重看了TVB 这部港剧一遍. 戏里头除了反射当年时局和战争的变幻, 最叫人难忘的就非刘醒与九姑娘之间那似是若非的感情戏莫属了.

剧集里的剧情无疑是真的牵动人心, 但更牵动我感觉的是, 世间上是否真的有这么一个人能够像刘醒那般, 爱得那么纯洁, 那么简单, 那么付出, 那么一生一世呢? 看来~ 这一种的爱情或感情也只有在戏剧里方才可以找得到了罢...

Setia Eco ½ Marathon ‘10 @ 5/6/2010

2010-06-10T01:22:00.016+08:00

I participated Setia Eco ½ Marathon ’10 with my buddy colleague, Meilee this year. It was my 2nd run in Setia Alam Township and the route is somehow similar with the previous Klang Pacer ½ Marathon run in Y2009.

Erm… I have not been running after my previous 11km ½ marathon run and ever since I transferred to KL Sales Office due to well-known traffic condition. So, I bought myself a treadmill machine to save the travelling hassle to fitness center and lie to myself that I did practice for the run. : P
How was the run? For sure I’m long way behind Meilee but at least… I completed the run within stipulated timeframe. Paiseh…

Redang Island Relaxing Trip ’10 @ 1/6/2010 ~ 4/6/2012

2010-06-10T01:10:00.007+08:00

Had my 3rd visit to Redang Island last week… Nothing much to blog about, it is basically just another island relaxation trip for me to temporary escape from work hectic under the bright hot sun surrounded with sandy beach except, we have a new gang member this time... Tada~ Nixon’s girlfriend - Jessica. : )

SSRC Sg Chiling Diversion To Fraser Hill Outing @ 22/5/2010

2010-05-27T23:29:00.013+08:00

That should be my 3rd visit to Sg Chiling with SSRC but ended up became my 2nd visit to Fraser Hill with SSRC…

It was drizzling early that morning but we still depart and head to Sg Chiling. As soon as we reached, we found many groups of people hang around the entrance because the maintenance team has blocked visitors to get into the park. We have been advised that it is not safe to go in because of high stream level and strong stream current due heavy rain in early morning.

So~ we diversified our outing to Fraser Hill which is an hour away from Sg Chiling and get ourselves chilled up at Fraser Hill without proper fittings as our cloths were meant for sunny trekking and camping by the side of gigantic Sg Chiling Waterfall. Nevertheless, it is still an enjoyable SSRC outing overall where everyone gets to get together out of office.

Tibetian Zhi (天珠) Bracelet @ 9/5/2010

2010-05-10T00:52:00.003+08:00

I bought a Tibetian Zhi (天珠) bracelet today with Michelle at Zhi Kingdom, Mid Valley Megamall since we can’t make it to our planned Tibet trip in due of 6.9-magnitude earthquake hit at Qinghai Yushu (青海玉树) in April ’11 where PRC had declared Xining (西宁) of Qinghai-Tibet Railway (青藏铁路) as temporary relief base (临时救援基地).

We have been wanted to get ourselves a Tibetian Zhi long ago and finally we got one today on fate I would say, of which we did not plan for it but at an out of sudden action call 就在没打算不知不觉神推鬼挤随缘之下. Initially, we thought of getting those Zhi on promotion but we ended up upgrade to a higher charm level Zhi, with slightly pricey price of course. : ) Both women who has lesser worries on career and monies… had wishes for an average livings with good love relationship / life partner having seen all their miserable love relationship in the past.

爱... 真的没那么简单 @ 1/5/2010

2010-05-07T22:35:00.001+08:00

没那么简单
By 黄小琥
作词：姚若龙
作曲：萧煌奇
专辑：简单/不简单

没那么简单就能找到聊得来的伴
尤其是在看过了那么多的背叛
总是不安只好强悍
谁谋杀了我的浪漫

Repeat
没那么简单就能去爱别的全不看
变得实际也许好也许坏各一半
不爱孤单一久也习惯
不用担心谁也不用被谁管

感觉快乐就忙东忙西
感觉累了就放空自己
别人说的话随便听一听自己作决定
不想拥有太多情绪
一杯红酒配电影
在周末晚上关上了手机舒服窝在沙发里

相爱没有那么容易每个人有他的脾气
过了爱作梦的年纪轰轰烈烈不如平静
幸福没有那么容易才会特别让人着迷
什么都不懂的年纪
曾经最掏心所以最开心曾经

Repeat x1

相爱没有那么容易每个人有他的脾气
过了爱作梦的年纪轰轰烈烈不如平静
幸福没有那么容易才会特别让人着迷
什么都不懂的年纪
曾经最掏心所以最开心曾经
想念最伤心但却最动心的记忆

A Supposed-To-Be Happy Update @ 22/4/2010

2010-04-29T00:23:00.002+08:00

Had an hour lunch catch up with buddy, AT at Oldtown Kopitiam, Jalan YKS today… She brought me an update which supposed to be happy but not-so-happy for me. Yes! SS is reuniting with SP again… I’m glad to know about his re-employment and happy that his brilliant finally being recognized after he left SP family for years. He is now at the top management level… and that would also indicate that we are so close yet so far from now onwards… All the best in your new challenge, SS!

Thanks to my friend, W for his meal treats so I could finally dine at Jogoya Japanese buffet restaurant at Starhill Gallery, Bukit Bintang KL which is well-known with its assorted fresh sashimi, oysters and Häagen-Dazs super premium ice cream…

How I find the dinner? Erm~ I don’t take oyster and hardly take ice cream, but I did enjoy the freshness of my favorite sashimi. : )

烈火雄心3 - 阿牛 (钟有成) 的执着 @ 26/2/2010

2010-02-26T23:51:00.007+08:00

终於在这天追看完 [ 烈火雄心Burning Flame 3 ] 心中有一番感慨滋味. 戏里头的阿牛 (钟有成, 王喜饰演) 有着一股坚韧的毅力与执着, 使到他失去了一切包括他的爱人, 他的事业及他的体肢. 他对爱人那一种可以克尽所能甚至不惜生命的坚守, 虽然会带给身边人无形的束绑压力, 但试问这世间上又是否真的有如此一人能为爱牺牲呢? 被爱的纵使是有压力, 但亦无可否认他(她)是幸福的...

除此之外, 戏中名言 "Out of Difficulties, Makes Miracle" 也是世人应当参详的...

Anyhow, Gong Xi Fa Chai & Happy Valentine’s Day to all!

4D3N Bangkok Trip With Buddies ’10 @ 29/1/2010 ~ 1/2/2010

2010-02-07T23:46:00.025+08:00

Bangkok! Here we come… A group of 6 ladies finally flight off to Bangkok on these dates after a long advance planning, availability checks and rescheduling for years to travel in group.

Day 1
We arrived by different MAS & AK flights, gathered at our hotel, Salil Hotel Sukhumvit - Soi Thonglor 1 and took BTS for a late lunch at Central World. We then walked to Platinum Mall under the rain for our 1st shopping hunt. We spent few hours in the mall yet we still have not enough time to shop all the levels and return to buy, we only managed to hunt as we go once we find the price is reasonable. In general, those shops somehow sell similar product... But you hardly find exact same design that you like in other shops once you left the shop. Most shops in the mall offer warehouse price if you buy more... some already warehouse price and bargain only if you really interested. We had our 1st dinner along the roadside while on the walk way back to Central World for Naraya bags before we took BTS back to the hotel and ended the day. If we were to recall now, we are real daring to have the 1st dinner at the roadside without food poisoning in mind at that time, which may ruin the trip.

Day 2
As planned, we rented a 4WD MPV for Ayutthaya tour since we have a group of 6 ppl @ total B$4000 if not wrongly remembered. It took us almost 2 hours to travel to Ayutthaya and another 2 hours from Ayutthaya back to hotel due to jam. No doubt the place is nice but it's also very hot and tiring. We forgo the initially planned Ladyboy show because most of us watched before and it's about RM80 for the show. Instead, we went for a Thai massage in view of the tiredness followed by dinner and took meter taxi back to hotel for shower before our next program, Sirocco Sky Bar.

Sirocco Sky Bar, the famous sky bar in BKK... High end bar with many mat sallehs hang out that can enjoy huge wind and cooling at the top of Lebua State Tower, a nice bar to visit to amaze the night view of BKK with a compulsory drink per pax. Oya~ Take note on the smart casual & no slipper dress code if you wish to visit the bar... Besides than slipper, Crocs shoes also not allowed because it is made of plastic. Myself + another friend wore Crocs... being rejected to take the lift up to sky bar. Nevertheless, all of us still made it up to the top without buying of shoes. Interested to know how? I can sell you the tricks… : P We took a meter taxi back from Lebua Tower of State to hotel after the hang out, 6 ppl in 1 taxi... You can never have that in MY.

Day 3
Took Mo Chit BTS line to the 7 football field sized Chatuchak on this day and venture the place in pairs with targeted rows because we obviously cannot manage to shop the whole Chatuchak. It is advised to shop as you walk as you can hardly find time / ways to get back to the same stall.

In the afternoon, we took boat transfer along Chao Phraya River to the Grant Palace jetty followed by tuk tuk / meter taxi land transfer to the Grand Palace. There are quite a number of mini palaces within the Grand Palace of which, we only able to visit 2 of those because we were a little late from Chatuchak and the Grand Palace close at 3:30pm.

Then, we took a 3sec boat transfer across the Chao Phraya River from Grand Palace to Wat Arun and climbed the Wat Arun for some shots. We also enjoyed the sunset outside the Wat before we head back for boat transfer along Chao Phraya River. You can also opt to enjoy a better sunset scenic of Chao Phraya River with their luxury boat trip around the cost of RM50 - RM60 per pax.

We then went for dinner and a quick walk at Siam Paragon after we were back from Wat Arun followed by meter taxi from the nearest BTS station to visit the Suan Lum Night Market. Eh… You can also go by BTS with Skytrain transit but we didn't because our gang lead went back to hotel earlier and we were lost half way at BTS station. We didn't manage to cover the whole night market since it was a little too late and a little more expensive than Platinum Mall. But… most importantly is, we ran out of Energizer battery!

Day 4
We rented a van for Damnoen Saduak Floating Market tour @ total B$3400 ( if not wrongly remembered ) include transfer from hotel to airport later in the day. As some of you may aware from Internet travel advises, our van stop at the very 1st "boat jetty" where there are people asking us to start the motor boat journey at expensive cost. Lucky that we have ignored the offer and asked the driver to send us further in to the main "boat jetty" where, the main "boat jetty" is very obvious with signage around and you can start to see some boat stalls parking along the riverside.

There are several boat operators available at the main "boat jetty", we bargained the price and get into a manual boat to embark the journey in a nicer traditional way. We bought things + food to eat along the way and also tried some boat stalls parked along the river at the “main jetty" after disembarkation. We had smooth boat traffic on the way in but were stuck in bad boat traffic jam during our way out due to anti-traffic direction where, most tourists reached and started their journey at the time. Overall, floating market is worth to visit but remember to schedule your time promptly according to boat traffics.

Last, we went to BIG C supermarket to shop for Thai MAMA Brand tom yam maggi mee + junk food etc while on the way back from Dumnoen Saduak and stopped at the a corner Naraya shop nearby our hotel ( 1 / 2 BTS station away ) for bags again before we get packed and depart from hotel to airport for evening return flights. With that, we ended our BKK trip… with 1 bag go 2 bags back at KLIA & LCCT respectively.

Relocate Nest To Setia Sky Residences, KL Office @ 26/1/2010

2010-01-26T22:42:00.003+08:00

I’ve once moved my work place from Setia Eco Park Office @ Green Canopy to station at Corporate Office @ Eco Tower one month ago due to the Management decision that restructures the department with immediate effect. This time… I move my work place again from Eco Tower to the newly renovated office @ Skypod, Setia Sky Residences Office.

Hmm… I do not know how the new environment going to be but I’m sure that I will definitely skip all my lunch in future due to geographical distance from office to makan places that needs to drive out… : ( Perhaps, a good reason for me to control my diet. : )

Me & Algy had our New Year Countdown at IOI Boulevard this year in due avoid massive crowd at downtown / KL area and to support our buddy Liching’s event. It is indeed a blessing to us where we can gather around and still enjoyed the happening without the hectic / troubles heading down to town. Though people may feel suspicious and it is also a little odd hanging out with my buddy and friend from IOI Group but I’m happy to be around having them in my friends circle. It is my personal time after work hour anyway… and this is not bided under company policy that employees cannot be friended with competitors’ employees duh… : P

This is my 1st experience of Christianity Christmas eve countdown… Thanks to buddy Algy for her extended invitation, accompany her to attend her boss’s church countdown at PJ SS2. We reached the venue slightly late after the ceremony begun where we quickly grabbed a white candle and joined the rest without further delay. We listened to some of Jesus, the Great stories and sang quite a numbers of Christian worship songs that night with the white candle lighted. Silent night, holy night… and the countdown… Merry Christmas! Everyone is so joyous and wishes everyone truly around with their great love. Even I’m not a Christian, but I do felt the happiness and the joyfulness.

It was really an exceptional Christmas Eve countdown that I ever had.

Avatar, The Movie @ 19/12/2009

2009-12-24T00:01:00.005+08:00

I recently watched Avatar, The Movie with one of my guy friend which is indeed, another promising movie by James Cameron with new generation special effects that delivers a full new kind of immersive cinematic experience.

The story tells Jake Sully, a former Marine confined to a wheelchair who have been recruited to travel light years to the human outpost on Pandora with his reborn avatar, a genetically engineered hybrids of human DNA mixed with DNA from the native of Pandora… the Navi. His initially role is to infiltrate the Navi, who have become a major obstacle to the mining of a rare mineral which is the Key to solve Earth’s energy crisis. Throughout progress, Jake who is taken in by the Navi clan, went through many test and adventure to learns to become one of them. When Jake finally takes his place among them, he had also learnt to respect the Navi way to believe, to preserve and to live with the Mother Nature of which, he then faced the ultimate test as he leads the Navi clan in an epic battle that decides nothing less than the fate of an entire world.

Morel behind the story is, never do something that may harm the others as we develop because it may defeat the original purpose at the end of the day. Save our Mother Nature!

Dec Babies Big 3-0 B’day Celebration @ 11/12/2009

2009-12-15T22:42:00.008+08:00

Jo initiated a special big 3-0 birthday celebration for herself + Vay + Yen, the three December babies last weekend where the others, Siewlee + Mich + myself were also attended to this gals only gathering cum birthday celebration and spent a night at a 2-bedroom apartment at The Nomad Sucasa, KL. The program supposed to start from lunch but I only able to meet up with the gals, Jo + Yen + Siewlee later in the evening due to heavy house chores and the unfortunate car alarm fault.

The gals were getting ready when I reached the hotel and we leave the hotel for a good dinner once we were all set. When we reached our desired dinner venue - Fullhouse at Jalan Yap Kwan Seng, it was eventually fullhouse-ed. We then only managed to have our dinner at Rakuzen Japanese Restaurant, Chulan Square after an hour of KL tour and Mich managed to join us just in time for dinner. Vay arrived later after we were back to the hotel and we had a night long gathering catching up with each others + very own free of charge Tarot cards reading session by Vay & Yen till 4am the next day. After some rest, we woke up early morning and catch the hotel buffet breakfast together gather of which, our last breakfast together was far way long ago in colleague time. We also had a relaxing and soothing Thai full body massage recommended by Yen at Ampang Point, our college days hangout place to mark the end of our 1st ever gals gathering.

I’m equally glad like Jo that everyone could made it to the gathering, enjoyed the good hanging out time and can’t wait to look forward to our next gals gathering soon. And… everyone… remember to invite mommy Ami / perhaps baby Amidrin next round oh… ; )

SPSB Annual Dinner ’09 @ 4/12/2009

2009-12-09T01:39:00.012+08:00

Another year has gone… It’s SP annual dinner again themed Magical Green in conjunction to the lately planet saving responsibility hit. This year, Setia Eco Park opted Elf as our sub theme with greeny tailor made outfit throughout the division of which, myself + another 3 female colleagues has volunteered and opted to wore the male outfit instead of the beautiful classy female dress due to insufficient female costume cloth. I’m glad that I’ve made the choice to be in male outfit this year rather than female because it is hardly unlikely that I have such a chance. Hehe… : D But… what made this year annual dinner more memorable was, it is also my last year with Setia Eco Park the fun going division. : (

Unlike last year, I’ve invited my buddy ex-colleague Algy along having seen Eamy invited another 2 buddy ex-colleague, Liching + Chengni. Though Chengni unable to make it at last minute, we were still enjoyed ourselves catching up around with staff from other division / departments. Besides, it was also an awaited + excited moment to see Mike put on his show as emcees of the night after his hard work. Mike, you’ve done a good job! And… here are some of the photos taken that night… : )

3D2N Cameron Highland Breeze Relax @ 27/11/2009 ~ 29/11/2009

2009-12-03T23:53:00.012+08:00

After 7 months of busy work + hectic work life, I’m glad that we are able to find time for another jalan-jalan trip high up the hill where the usual four of us ( Algy + Mike + Cheng + myself ) & Angeline packed some of our belongings and escaped ourselves to breezy Cameron Highland last weekend. Unlike others, we didn’t do any strawberries plucking up there… Instead, we spent most of our time on food… from foot hill all the way up. Strawberry Moment is one of the must visit which is also the one we have visited the most for dessert. Besides than dessert, steamboat and bubble milk tea were also one of our must have each night especially those pasar malam’s bubble milk tea + snacks that fed our stomach during mahjong learning session form Master Mike. : P Graduate? Well… Master Mike students are just too dummy in receipting his knowledge transfer even after numerous learning fees paid ler~ Other than that, we also had the privilege in commenting Mike’s emcees speech + annotation prior his show time in coming SP annual dinner. Ngiak ngiak ngiak…

Though this is not our individual 1st visit to Cameron Highland, but it is still relaxing where we enjoyed ourselves very much and return with refreshed mind… When is next? Argh~ =.=”

Buddy Ex-Colleague, Stephen’s Wedding @ 15/11/2009

2009-11-22T00:27:00.015+08:00

Finally… Attended to my buddy ex-colleague, Stephen & colleague, Wallis’s wedding dinner reception last week at Spring Valley Mid Valley after waited for many years. As expected, the wedding reception looks more like a Setiarian & ex-Setiarian gathering since Stephen invited most of his formal buddies regardless whether one had left SP or not.

The night, we enjoyed ourselves very much mixed around, getting in touch and having fun with fellow long time no see friends from especially those who had resigned from SP and those from distanced branch offices. It was amazed that everybody able to get together during the night which I guess only bro Stephen can make this happened. Words just can’t explain how excited we were that night where one of table finished almost 11 bottles of red wine and some of us don’t even want to end the night. Ahem~ for those who were in the gang, you know who I’m referring to… the bold headed uncle J with spectacle and slimmed-down tummy whom need to be on controlled diet except that night. : P

I have to admit that I may have neglected the couple during the night as we were too busy catching up here and there. And… I also felt sorry that myself & Algy has flown Stephen airplane being his SP guests reception. =.= Though as if I didn’t bother much about the couple the night but I’m truly happy for both of them at the bottom of my heart. I believe bro Stephen feels the same too as what he used to say… heart to heart ( “sum jiu” 心照 )… : )

Congratulations to bro Stephen & Wallis, may both of you have a wonderful marriage life till the end of life journey… : )

2009-11-03T23:52:00.015+08:00

Ya~ I like-like did another ear piercing on both my ears recently...

It wasn’t anything special such as turning of life circle but a simply play-play thought after admired some of my friends for some time…. : D Moreover, this thing is better to act now rather than wait until a “more mature” time. Ok ok… I know I’m already categorized under “mature” group… So what… I’m just following my heart~ : P

Dama Orchestra - I Have A Date With Spring @ 17/10/2009

2009-10-26T22:36:00.007+08:00

SP sponsored the local made musical [ I Have A Date With Spring 我和春天有个约会 ] leaded by soprano, Ms. Tan Soo Suan and Dama Orchestra lately. As usual, volunteer working staff is entitled to watch the stage play together with SP invited guest during the corporate night show.

I’m one of the representatives from Setia Eco Park for the night that I got the chance to enjoy the musical show. As expected, Ms. Tan Soo Suan ( 姚小蝶, Butterfly ) and her fellow counterparts did put up a good performance in overall even though with simple stage props, except… a little disappointment when it comes to the overlong not-so-good singing part of her stage play’s lover ( 沈家豪, Kah Hou ) played by Steve Yap, a local artist / model.

Besides, the performance also reminded me my 1st contact to musical show during my secondary school days of which we also put up the same stage play for Inter-School Chinese Society Annual Gathering in one of the year. In short, performance on the night reminded me those were the day memories and, not forgetting a group photo with main actress before we called off the duty of course.

A Dismissed Of My Colleague, Julie @ 5/10/2009

2009-10-06T00:02:00.007+08:00

My day was saddened when I received the shocked news that one of my colleague had passed away suddenly early this morning after an injection to rescue her as last option. I wouldn’t say that I’m close with this colleague of mine since I just started to know her from one of the company event early this year. But… My heart was truly saddened and I cried when I got to knew about the dismissed simply because of her easy going + happy go lucky + kind personality that I could no longer find time to get to know more.

I off from my club night duty earlier and rushed just in time to pay her my last respect together with my buddy Algy + Jeff at Putra Height. She is still as sweet as she was in her lovely green party dress, left behind her beloved husband and her 2 young aged kids which is a real sorry to the children. Word just can’t describe our feeling the night. May God blessed your soul… Rest in peace, Julie… =.= ~ Julie in memory ~

5D4N Siem Reap & Phnom Penh Cambodia @ 3/9/2009 ~ 7/9/2009

2009-09-12T00:57:00.105+08:00

I visited to one of the Seven Wonders of the World, the Angkor Wat’s country - Siem Reap & Phnom Penh Cambodia with Liching + Wayne + William + Edwin + Jo & Nix early this month. It was a quite affordable trip since we managed to secure a cheap air fare with our own accommodation and ground arrangement taken care by JoNix the couple. We have enjoyed most of the must sees and must do attractions throughout this 5D4N experience trip.

Day 1
Landed at Siem Reap-Angkor International Airport and started our journey after meet up with the ground tour guide. We were 1st taken to a scenic boat ride along Tonle Sap Lake, the largest freshwater lake in South East Asia which looks more like a sea to see the floating villages and the villages’ lifestyle. Then, we enjoyed a local Khmer lunch and tried out their local famous Amok, a type of traditional Khmer dish. Across the road, we able to admired the Srah Srang ( Royal Bath ) which is actually a baray ( reservoir ) where the kings take their baths in ancient times, just like how it was named. After lunch, we visited Bantaey Srei Temple to admire the unique and beautiful carvings on mostly sandstone walls of the temple which considered as a jewel of Khmer art. We then continued our visit to Aki Ra's Landmine Museum that promotes mine awareness and education for both tourists and Cambodian people. We’ve learnt that landmines truly suffered the Cambodian in old days. At night, we had our buffet dinner at one of the restaurant opposite our hotel which comes with Apsara Dance performance, the Khmer classical dance that somewhat similar to Thailand. Besides, we also shopped at the Angkor Night Market and bought some souvenirs before we head back to hotel for a good rest.

Day 2
Had our breakfast at hotel and depart for Angkor ( Khmer: city ) visit. We 1st visited to Angkor Wat, the largest + most famous of all the temples that stand in the center of Angkor. It took us half a day to walk around the whole temple while listen to the historical explanation given by our local English speaking tour guide, Mr. Borin. In the afternoon, we visited to Angkor Thom - the home of Bayon, a spectacular Buddhist temple city that has five monumental walls with each having four serene faces of Avalokitesvara ( Buddha ) while the Bayon Temple - located at the center of Angkor Thom city, is where we witnessed the countless gigantic smiling faces of Buddha. We also covered the major attractions within the Angkor Thom city such as Terrace of the Elephants, Terrace of the Leper King etc and some places of interest around the Victory Square. We later continued our visit to Ta Prohm Temple, the most attractive temples in Angkor surrounded by thick layers of jungle and covered mostly by gigantic tree roots due to trees growing out of the ruins and the roots of the silk cotton tree covering its wall. Inside the tree roots covered monument are a maze of narrow corridors and crumbling stonework that have been filmed in the movies Tomb Raider, starring Angelina Jolie as Lara Croft that later made the temple also known as Tomb Temple. At night, we had Cambodian BBQ dinner along Siem Reap Pub Street, did some street walking and had a Cambodia foot reflexology to sooth our tiring feet after much day walk.

Day 3
Woke up early 4 in the morning and watched the picturesque sunrise at Angkor Wat which was truly a great experience to witness the scenic change though we were a little sleepy. Apart from this, we also rode the Cambodia hot air balloon that tethered 180 meters above ground and amazed the spectacular aerial view of Angkor in the morning before we went back to hotel for breakfast. We continued our visit to Roluos Group temples such as Prasat Preah Ko Temple which believed to be the 1st temple built in the Rolous Group, Bakong Temple which believed to be the representation of Mount Meru, and Lo Lei Temple that could be one of the most beautiful island temple ever built in this region which is now dry. Last, we were transported to visit Les Chantiers Écoles, the school specialize in teaching wood + stone carving technique to learn more about Cambodia carving art where the premise also has a beautiful shop called Artisant d’Angkor that sells art pieces funding the school as an end of our ground tour. On our own leisure, we experienced the Cambodia body massage, did some local food hunt and tried the local famous Happy Herbs Pizza - pizzas with added “herbs” that could make someone feel happy. We also walked the Angkor Night Market again to source souvenirs before leaving Siem Reap.

Day 4
Took few hours Mekong Express Limousine Bus travel direct from Siem Reap to Phnom Penh and start our free & easy visit in Phnom Penh once we arrived + checked in the hotel. We first visited the Cambodia National Museum reinforced by Australian government. It houses a lot of originals Buddhas, Sivas + Apsaras from Angkor while those seen at Angkor are mainly replicas to prevent looting. We also visited to creepy Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum, the former Tuol Svay Prey High School that has been converted into a detention and torture center known as Tuol Sleng, or S-21 ( Security Prison 21 ) to detain individuals accused of opposing the Pol Pot regime where, most of the prisoners detained here were later taken to Choeung Ek ( Killing Fields ) to slaughtered without mercy and buried in mass graves. Too bad that we didn’t make it to visit the Killing Fields because it was located 7km away from the city that requires 1 hour travel time which we were of time constraint. At the evening, we passed by the Independence Monument that commemorates the end of the France-ruled Cambodia's regime while we were on our way to visit Phnom Penh Night Market ( Phsar Reatrey ) located in a park of Riverfront and tried some of their local snacks. We later then had our dinner at one of the pub restaurant around Riverfront and also visited the FCC Cambodia ( Foreign Correspondents' Club Cambodia ) Phnom Penh outlet for a cup of drink along the Sisowath Quay Riverfront and enjoyed the view that overlooks the convergence of the Mekong and Tonle Sap rivers.

Day 5

Toured to explore The Royal Palace and amazed The Silver Pagoda located in the compound of the Royal Palace which was named because of its floor that covered with silver tiles. The Silver Pagoda houses treasures such as gold Budda adorned with thousands of diamonds and emerald Buddha made of baccarat crystal. We also visited Wat Phnom, the highest artificial hill in Phnom Penh with Buddhist pagoda + biggest clock in Cambodia that become a city landmark and worship place. Last, we still managed to find some extra time to visit the Old Market ( Psah Chas ) which nearly confused us the way out from the market as our last stop for souvenir before we head back to the hotel, took some pictures, had a fast meal + simple shower, packed and returned.

Well~ Here is how we ended our trip... Thanks to all my travel mates who has made this an unforgettable and memorable experience trip. : )

Celebrated buddy ex-colleague, Liching’s birthday at Chilis Restaurant & Bar, Mid Valley with Eamy + Chengni + Algy on this date which we waited nearly an hour for a table due to Muslim Puasa month. Although time wasted on table waiting but we enjoyed our food and time gathered together overall with all sorts of chat topics. As usual, Liching had her birthday cake cutting + wish making moment after we stuffed our stomach full before we ended the birthday gathering and called off the night. Happy birthday to you, Liching… : )

30Hr Famine Camp ’09 @ 22 ~ 23/8/2009

2009-08-29T23:14:00.012+08:00

This is my 2nd participation of 30Hr Famine Camp together with my buddy ex-colleague Liching + Chengni + colleague Eamy without another friend, Chloe who can’t make it at last minute… Unlike last year, we decided not attend to the final 4 hours countdown event at Stadium Putra, Bukit Jalil this year due to the fear of recent H1N1 outbreak. Instead, we had our own DIY camp at Chengni’s house with our own program row during the 30 hours fast such as banner making, manicure / pedicure, beauty masking, Korean drama watching etc. Though we did not participate in the final countdown but we were glad that west 30Hr Famine themed You’ve Got The Power! 齐心赶走饿势力 has successfully raised RM1.17 million this year with a total of 132 registered DIY Camps and 11,222 DIY Campers. We then had our break fast at Sakae Sushi IOI Mall Puchong to end the overall program. Gals, let’s cheers to ourselves that we have made it… : )

The Edge KL Rat Race ’09 @ 11/8/2009

2009-08-19T23:32:00.009+08:00

Took part in The Edge KL Rat Race this year with my colleagues and completed the 4.5km city run on one of the fine working day afternoon. It was my 1st corporate run since I knew about this race event which will be held every year with the objective of charity donation by most of the established corporations in Malaysia, especially those resides in Klang Valley. Again, SP sponsored 2 teams down on the “battle road” this year comprises 3 – 2 and 2 – 3 mixed where I’m 1 of the member in Team B. I have to admit that I was the slowest among my team even though I’m not the last finisher among SP teams but I did experienced the city run with SP ranked in the middle of the run having Team A at no. 41 and Team B at no. 23.

Overall, it was an merry and enjoyable run with the present of SP cheerleading team and supporters that has made our participation merrier. Kudos to all… Hope we can continue our effort and do it better next year. b^_^d

After a month of waiting + another month of number plate tendering, the arrival of my new buddy is finally here… I then immediately tinted my new buddy with the claimed unbreakable brand of tint film and added on the window wiser so it looks a little smarter than others "sea lion" / "dugong" on the road. : P Besides than what I’ve added, I also plan to add-on steel pedals + steel side plats later if I manage to find extra free time to work on it. Therefore, it is also time for me to start feeding my new buddy and to save some monies for tire upgrade when tire changing time is matured in years later. Last… here is my new buddy on the road… Hehe… ^_^

A Coincidental Pinky Sunday Gathering @ 19/7/2009

2009-07-23T02:16:00.021+08:00

I had a coincidentally pink gathering last Sunday with my bunch of buddies, Algy + Angel + Cheng + not-so-buddy-but-hope-will-be-a-buddy-soon Steven at Mid Valley. I called it a “pinky” gathering because 4 of us surprisingly attended the gathering in pink without any pre-arrangement except 1 blue who claimed that he was a chip-in passer by having seen us in pink. It was initially planned as a lunch gathering but end up to be a lunch + hi-tea session for the guys and a whole day long outing for the gals. We have had a great time catching up with each other particularly with Angel + Steven after their job changed. We chat and chat and chat from Food Garden at Gardens to Steven’s Tea Garden at Mid Valley with someone also eat and eat and eat at the same time. : P

After bid goodbye to the guys… whom had their date respectively, the gals continued their shopping to hunt for Korea snack at the Korean Fair corner. Soon after Angel satisfied with her Korean food hunt, we decided to catch a movie session together on Angel’s craving + long awaited Harry Potter & The Half Blood Prince. Imagine that we queued for 3 rounds with split strategy just for seek of grabbing others uncollected ticket reservation a second passed the collection time. We did managed to get ourselves tickets and catches the show of course… Though this episode of Harry Potter wasn’t that impressive, but it did made our day merrier and back home joyfully. : D

Setia Eco Park hosted the 278th & 279th MKA All Bread Championship Show last week which I didn’t manage to make myself over to join the event.

What A Small Small World - Update @ 9/7/2007

2009-07-11T00:36:00.003+08:00

Makan & Movie With Colleagues @ 4/7/2009

2009-07-07T23:25:00.005+08:00

I had a makan round with my fellow colleagues, Jasmine + Janice + Cecil + Alex + Wee at Shogun Japanese Restaurant and catch the movie Ice Age 3: Dawn of the Dinosaurs at GSC 1U last weekend. We initially planned to watch Transformer 2 but we couldn’t manage to get any. Same as the previous 2 episodes, this episode still started off with Scrat who is still on the hunt to hold onto his beloved acorn while finding a possible romance in a female sabre-toothed squirrel named Scratte. The whole story begun with Sid’s wish for a family of his own and attempted to adopt three dinosaur eggs. This act has gets him abducted by their real mother to an underground lost world where then his friends with met a one-eyed weasel known as Buck who hunts dinosaurs intently and jointly rescued him. It was indeed another movie that creates laughter, able to make ones miserable away and left with young happiness.

Daidomon Charcoal BBQ Japanese Restaurant, GE Mall @ 28/6/2008
Sis Sam & Winnie bought me a barbeque buffet as my birthday meal treat on this date at Daidomon Charcoal BBQ. The restaurant looks more like a Korean restaurant instead of Japanese from how it was designed. Erm… I hardly take Japanese barbeque but it turned up quite nice even though barbeque is still the major in Korean / Thai food. Thanks to Sis Sam & Winnie so that I’ve given a try on Japanese BBQ.

TGI Friday, IOI Mall @ 29/6/2008
My long missed dear friend, I, treated me a meal at TGI Friday as a mini birthday celebration a day before my big day. It has been quite sometime I didn’t see him / even communicate with him and I was happy that we are able to spend an evening together. Though the happy feeling was there but I also felt a little sad at the same time simply because our moment spent also reminded me our relationship. He is the one who take my hand to guide me home, took my heart away when my whole world was grey, gave me everything and a little bit more… Thanks for the lift dear~

Zen Japanese Restaurant, Sunway Pyramid @ 30/6/2008
My buddy ex-colleagues Chengni, Liching and Algy celebrated my birthday with my favorite Japanese meal treat at Zen. It was initially planned by Chengni as a prank that only she herself is free to celebrate my big day with me but it wasn’t at the end just like how my gut felt feeling. We enjoyed our dinner and had a pleasant gathering session with laughter all around. Thanks to all for celebrating my day… ^_^

Papa Rich Kopitiam, Bandar Puteri @ 1/7/2008
My buddy colleague, Meilee treated me a simple yet meaningful dinner a day after my big day… Though it was just a little small + short time gathered around but we have enjoyed our girl talk the night. Thanks Meilee for the warmth meal treat. : )

Transformer 2 - Revenge Of The Fallen @ 27/6/2009

2009-06-29T23:13:00.007+08:00

I’ve been waited for this to come since the first screened in cinemas. Thanks to my buddy ex-colleague Liching who offered Chengni and myself free on discounted GSC movie tickets that she gotten via her company staff club. Me & Chengni had our super fast dinner at Sakae Sushi IOI Mall and rushed to the cinema once Liching arrived with her other colleagues from office. Now guess what… we even got free popcorn + soft drink that come together with the discounted tickets as a package. : D

Back to the movie, I was rather sad when Optimus Prime was killed and dead in the middle of the show. Luckily, it was later then able to be rescued with the long lost Optrix gotten by Sam Witwicky & Mikaela Banes after a climactic human-decepticons + megatrons-decepticons combat that took place at the Giza pyramid complex, Egypt. Hm… overall it was still a good movie not to be missed even though I felt that the first is still the best. : D

My Colleague, Elay B’day Celebration @ 26/6/2009

2009-06-26T01:06:00.002+08:00

I joined my buddy colleague, Meilee and celebrated my colleague, Elay’s birthday with a bunch of other colleagues, Yukmei + Algy + Jenn + Jeff + Loke at La La Chong, Subang Terminal 3 on this date. It was an advance birthday celebration for Elay 2 days before the actual day where Algy even bought her a bouquet of flower with Jeff as the honored delivery man and handed over the flower bouquet to Elay. We enjoyed the food + time gathered around and ended the dinner session with birthday cake as dessert after Elay made her wish + blew out the candle. Happy birthday, Elay…

R.I.P MJ 1958 - 2009 @ 25/6/2009

2009-06-25T01:08:00.015+08:00

Michael Jackson, the legendary King of Pop! I was shocked + sad when I came to knew that MJ has leaved behind his fans and returned to the side of God. Though I’m not a typical MJ fan but I do grow up listen to his pop songs such as Bad, Billy Jeans, Thriller etc when I was in my younger days until his most popular album Black Or White that brings the highest attention to me at my teenage. He was really a great entertainer with his superb showmanship on stage particularly his moonwalk and he was also a great peace lover who shower his love to human race despite than those unfavorable court cases that he have been accused. MJ proved that music really does unify culture, nationality + races and he also impacted us with his endless peace and love. Dust to dust, may God blessed MJ soul, may him rest in peace…

Setia Alam Klang Pacer ½ Marathon @ 7/6/2009

2009-06-17T00:31:00.008+08:00

I took part in the recent Klang Pacer ½ Marathon held at Setia Alam with my friend, SH & WL having seen that SP is the platinum sponsor. It was my 1st participation in 11km ½ marathon run and also a great experience for me as a 1st timer to woke up early 4:30am+ in the morning, reported myself 6am and started the run before the sky gets bright which was actually a good timing to start jog / run / exercise early the morning as the air is fresh and less hot.

The marathon kicked off from Setia Alam Welcome Centre and the 11km women open category has to be completed within 1 hour 45 min in order to get a finisher medal. Erm… It was lucky enough that I’m able to finish the run within the given timeframe and gotten myself the 1st ever run finisher medal even though I just had few intensive practices prior the run day. Hehe… : P Thanks to my friends for their companion that encouraged my participation as well as my colleague Ray being my run mate throughout the journey so that I got to chat a little and finished the run in a relaxed pace. : )

Baby Oscar 1st B’day Celebration ’09 @ 6/6/2009

2009-06-12T22:44:00.017+08:00

Time flies… and baby Oscar has already be with me for 1 year. I can still remember when I first brought home baby Oscar, he was just a cute tiny 2 months old puppy and today, he has turn to a 1 year old little handsome boy. Despite than his growth, baby Oscar indeed went through a lot of things with me… especially during the time that I’m down with depressed / sadness. When he saw me cry, he will be either sat on my lap / beside me to accompany me, sometimes he even licked away my tear drops. Well~ Word is just hard to express the meaning of baby Oscar to me and I’m glad that I have baby Oscar by my side. To appreciate his companion, I’ve celebrated his 1st birthday together with his sister Summer. We had a simple yet meaningful furkid’s birthday party at my friend cum Summer’s owner’s relative house in USJ 9, Subang where all our furkids enjoyed the treat.

Self-Explanatory Feeling… Lately - II @ 19/5/2009

He's Just Not That Into You @ 18/5/2009

2009-05-22T00:54:00.016+08:00

Recently.....

I found the someone whom I thought he might be interested on me and I might be falling to is just not that into me~ Sigh... =.=

Joy Ride & Test Drive… @ 17/5/2009

2009-05-22T00:15:00.000+08:00

Test drove both Honda City and Toyota Vios with Nixon today after being tempted by my ex-colleague Ever & her hubby Edwin about the power of Honda City though I’m slightly bias towards Toyota Vios. The new Honda City is indeed more “leng chai” than the previous design as well as Toyota Vios which really makes me falls for it and decided to give it a try. However, I was kind of disappointed after I sat onto the E-Spec Honda City and test drove the car. Despite than the not-so-comfortable jerk / momentum feeling whenever I pump in more petrol to speed up, the engine sound gave me the most unexpected outcome where both Nixon and I felt it was rather annoying. I understand that Honda try to put in the F1 kind of driving experience but the engine sound is real loud even though I drove on a busy road.

We then went to the nearby Toyota showroom and test drove the G-Spec Toyota Vios on the same route. It was a different driving experience compared to what I had with Honda City and… Wow~ it does earned compliments from both of us, although we still hear the engine sound when I speed but it is relatively less noisy than Honda City. Having known that S-Spec has stopped production and facing out, I decided to lock-in my booking the same day. Hope I can still manage to get my chosen spec and desired color by then. As for now, I gotto start to work harder and earn more $$$$ lur~ No more spending, no more shopping, no more holidays, no more free weekends... =.=”

SPSB Charity Visitation ’09 - II @ 16/5/2009

2009-05-18T23:14:00.000+08:00

Having learnt from our previous experience, we organized another charity visitation to Good Samaritan Home, Klang again. This time, we didn’t bring them any groceries but we arranged and brought them buffet lunch with our cumulated balance + unutilized SP staff meal vouchers besides than recycled toys + study materials etc. It wasn’t a real sumptuous kind of meal treat but it does somehow filled up the kids’ stomach especially with finger foods like chicken nuggets, sausages etc. We played games with the children, mixed around and talked to them whilst having our lunch together. All of them were positive and it is good to know that their parents discard doesn’t impact them to carry on their life with love given from everyone else. : )

Farewell With My Colleague, JC @ 14/5/2009

2009-05-16T00:19:00.000+08:00

Been invited by my buddy colleague, ML and joined the farewell of another colleague, JC mid of May at Asia One Café, Bandar Puteri Puchong. Just like how the Chinese proverb “no fight no knew”, I would say JC & my not-so-friend friendship started off with email-fighting where I demanded for some IT technical support beyond normal user request, partly because I came out from the same good old department and my a-little-better-understanding on company IT structure. JC is the 6th person resigned / transferred out from the good old department since I left which I believe there must be some common shared reason of why we opted to do so. Right? : ) Anyway, this reason is no longer important since we were now all out from the old boat except those bitter sweet memories that beneath our heart and to talk about / share again in gathering if any.

To all off-the-boat passengers, let’s move forward to live our life… Cheers!

My Colleague, Jane’s Wedding @ 10/5/2009

2009-05-16T00:04:00.001+08:00

It was the 1st lunch wedding reception that I’ve attended and to me, we shared the joy of this newly weds equally merry as dinner reception. Besides than reception time, the host has also prepared carnation stalk for every female attendee as door gift in conjunction with Mothers’ Day the day itself which have made the event merrier and meaningful. Congratulations again to my colleague Jane & her husband Richard, may you have a wonderful marriage life. : )

Buddy Course Mate, Mich B’day Celebration @ 8/5/2009

2009-05-12T23:13:00.009+08:00

We celebrated Mich birthday at Alexis, GE Mall Ampang recently and to catch another round of gathering before Calvin & Yuki fly back to Japan. It was definitely a successful gathering where almost everybody in our gang made it to the venue and enjoyed ourselves with Mich birthday invitation. We spent our night eat + drink at Alexis except enjoying the live band because it was a little too loud that we can’t hear our table conversation clearly where we ought to speak louder in order to chat around. The moment we talk a little louder, we were being advised that we disturbed other customers and it was rather annoying that we seems lower class than the rest when this happened. We continued our session after Mich made her birthday wish + cake cutting and called of the gathering late night despite than the little-not-satisfy. Happy birthday, Mich… : D

Indulge With Hagaan Darz @ 3/5/2009

2009-05-07T22:12:00.010+08:00

I had a date with my buddy course mate, Mich and indulged our taste bud at the famous Hagaan Darz Ice Cream at Sunway Pyramid on this date after we came back from our escaped trip.

Thanks to Mich that I got to enjoyed an ice cream indulgence. : )

Self-Pampered… @ 1/5/2009

2009-05-03T00:57:00.002+08:00

I pampered myself and bought myself two diamond-like rings when I was waited for flight back to KL at Kuala Terengganu Airport after the relaxing Redang Island trip. Well~ I knew both the rings were fake but at least it does somehow in short term fed my materialistic appetite since I still don’t have $$$$ to get myself a real diamond even though there is something called syntactic diamond which sell cheaper in the market. Unless... somebody is willing to buy for me… Anyone? : P

Redang Island Escaped Trip @ 28/4 ~ 1/5/2009

2009-05-03T00:10:00.024+08:00

Yes! I visited Redang Island again… This time, myself + Mich + Nixon & his friend Joyce joined Calvin & Yuki’s family and formed an 11 people group flied to Redang Island for a 4D3N escaped trip. As usual, Nixon was the one who arranged everything and what I need to do is just to pack my backpack. : P Well… Just as last year, we stayed at Laguna Redang Island Resort and enjoyed our full board holiday at the resort. What’s made this trip a difference was I finally get to dive at Redang Island with my dive buddy, Joyce under the guidance of our dive master. We saw species that we haven’t seen before and amazed the beautiful underwater world of Redang Island before it’s being further destroy. Thanks to Nixon who asked Joyce along and introduced her to us so I can have a dive buddy to fulfill my incomplete visit last year. ^_^

My Course Mate, Calvin’s Wedding @ 26/4/2009

2009-04-27T22:08:00.013+08:00

It’s Calvin & Yuki’s wedding! Ya, thanks to Calvin’s invitation to be Yuki’s jimuis which I have already forgotten how many times I became others jimuis. =.= Nah… That’s beside the point. The important is, we get to celebrate our dear friend’s “cross-country” wedding.

We reached Yuki’s rented Sunway Ville apartment early morning, helped around and tortured Calvin’s heng dais during the “bride receiving” ceremony. Erm… it wasn’t a real torture but just some simple activities to show Calvin’s sincerity as well as to symbolize the good in their marriage. After the bride receiving session, we followed the couple to Calvin’s family house at Sunway Damansara for Chinese tea ceremony and photos snapping before called off the day event. I then head back home together with Yen, who need to tumpang at my house for shower + night session. After some rest, we continued and get readied ourselves to the couple’s wedding dinner reception at Sunway Lagoon Resort Hotel. It was a well-planned dinner reception with qualify host hired and the environment was set high + merrier at the dinner. We were almost crazy having fun around and enjoyed ourselves all over throughout the night.

Congratulations to my dear friend Calvin & Yuki … May your marriage blessed with happiness and wishing you both a wonderful marriage life…: )

S’pore Spending Trip @ 18 & 19/4/2009

2009-04-25T00:08:00.005+08:00

Okie… I must admit that I did a spending trip in S’pore last week when I accompanied my youngest sis Winnie, for her Joey Yung StarLight Live Concert 2009 at Max Pavillion, S’pore. She purchased herself the most expensive ticket with her fellow Joey Yung’s Fans under the fans club. Nope~ I didn’t catch the concert even sis Winnie still able to get me low class ticket simply because I rather shop around than to watch her concert since I’m not into this artiste. Hehe… Also because of this, I’ve spent quite some monies in S’pore and I even have to loan my course mate, Nick’s credit card when I unable to charge to my credit card due to fault, he is the usual loan shark when I traveled down to the land of lion. Thanks to Nick for his hospitality being my tour guide + companion while sis Winnie busy with all her Joey Yung’s fans club activities both the days.

[Quiz] What's Your Dream Job? @ 15/4/2009

2009-04-21T23:06:00.007+08:00

I bumped onto this post when I was reading Firethorn’s blog during my lunch break and it sounds interesting. As such, I’ve made my move to take the quiz and here’s my result:-

Score:
Number of A's: 2
Number of B's: 4
Number of C's: 1
Number of D's: 2

Mostly D's: If you answered mostly D's, your ideal career is probably creative. Possible career choices include: writer, photographer, musician, interior decorator, graphic artist, fashion designer. Of course there are many more careers to choose from, but knowing your preferred type can help you narrow down the choices.

Mostly C's: If you answered mostly C's, your ideal career probably involves working with things. Tasks you might do in these careers include setting up, precision working, controlling, driving, operating, tending, feeding or handling. Possible career choices include: chef, repair person, carpenter, collectibles dealer, veterinary assistant and mechanic.

Mostly B's: If you answered mostly B's, your ideal career probably involves working with information. These careers may include tasks such as synthesizing, coordinating, analyzing, compiling, computing, copying or comparing. Possible career choices include: library assistant, editor, web developer, professional organizer, accountant or private investigator.

Mostly A's: If you answered mostly A's, your ideal career probably involves working with people. According to Human Resources Development Canada’s National Occupation Classification, these careers may involve: mentoring, negotiating, instructing, consulting, supervising, persuading, speaking, serving or assisting. Possible career choices include: teacher, human resources, flight attendant, life coach, daycare worker, personal assistant.

Hmm~ Relatively true… Guess I’m really out and away from my ideal career… as my current work portfolio is more towards the “A” category.

2D1N Melaka Jalan-Jalan Trip @ 11 & 12/4/2009

2009-04-21T19:25:00.027+08:00

I grouped with my buddy colleagues, Algy, Mike + Cheng for a 2D1N jalan-jalan cari makan trip down south to Melaka riding Cheng’s brand new MPV which is not even 1 week on the road… : P It was a pleasant and enjoyable trip having Cheng leading the group and Mike as our financial controller, so the two “gorgeous” in group need not to worry about anything at all basically.

We visited Melaka Zoo, enjoyed our Chicken Rice Ball lunch + tea time dessert + day walk at Jonker Street upon arrival, amazed the Maritime Museum + Melaka Eye from far while on the way to met up with our ex-colleague Jacky who quit his job and took up his responsibility to be the small boss of his family business in Melaka. Thanks to Jacky’s warm hospitality throughout the evening, we tasted Melaka’s famous ikan bakar, satay celup + oyster omelet, experienced the merrier of Jonker Street night market with all sorts of stalls and its phenomenal line dance + karaoke with even stage put up at the middle of the road. We have also visited The Stadthuys, A Famosa, Christ Church, St. Paul's Church + Malaysia’s oldest traditional Chinese temple - Cheng Hoon Teng etc and bought some souvenirs before we head back to KL the next day. Though tired, especially Cheng who drove throughout the trip, it was indeed a fun + enjoyable trip that has gotten us out from our hectic work life. And, we will… for sure look forward to arrange another jalan-jalan trip soon. Hehe… ^_^

Relief… @ 10/4/2009

2009-04-16T22:51:00.003+08:00

After a night long meditation, I decided to switch back to my ordinary life. A simple, happy go lucky life~ I had a talk with my boss, telling her that I’m not that into the recent job diversification having seen the recent worries / rather say depression that I’ve been going through since 2 month ago. I’m darn worries on how my life will be especially my heath… with early signals of red light. : ( I really hope that I could help out my boss and my colleagues as much as I can but sometimes it is just somehow beyond my control. I do have my own vulnerability… Or perhaps I’m just weak… =.= Well~ I’m done with my part and I’ve also conveyed whatsoever concern that I wish to highlight to my boss. What’s left behind now is… the management decision.

Worries… @ 9/4/2009

2009-04-10T21:36:00.002+08:00

I’m darn worries lately… Well~ I’m darn worries having seen my disorganized + unproductive work, imbalance work hour + personal time. I starts to worry that I might be over loaded, over stressed, over strained and over minded … I starts to worry that I’m physically aged having stiff shoulder, muscle ache and fatigue body… I starts to worry that I might be crazy thinking unwisely, cry out of no reason and bock down to depression… I even starts to worry that I’m leaving soon aka R.I.P having seen the regularize of my irregular migraine and my serious hair loss at 1:7 ratio of normal hair falls like a cancer patient… I’m just terrible out of my mind with all sorts of worries~ I pray to the God, may Her, the God of Mercy, enlightens me with wisdom and save me out from this hectic life~

Speech Of Silence… @ 5/4/2009

2009-04-05T22:30:00.001+08:00

Finished an old HK TVB drama series Speech Of Silence [ 甜言蜜语 Tim Yin Mat Yue ] lend by Nixon today and as usual, romance story always end with happy ending. Indeed, there is nothing much to blog about this series since it was just another TVB drama series that I’ve watched. However, there is something in my mind when the drama ended… > It will definitely takes a lot for a guy to reach / touches a heavily bleed, terribly broken and complicatedly mended heart like mine.

Taste the bittersweet, breathe the love.
Read my mind between silence and sound.

60 Earth Hour M’sia @ 28/3/2009

2009-04-01T23:29:00.013+08:00

As what I mentioned in my previous post, I crossed over the 60 Earth Hour at Shogun Japanese Buffet Restaurant, 1U experienced an hour light off nationwide. During the 1 hour, residents / business operators / buildings were encouraged to switch off unusable / external lightings such as advertisement and neon billboard. As for me, I leave behind my normal out-of-the-house practice and switched on only 1 small aquarium light for my return in late night.

Let’s save the earth, together we fight global warming!

Makan-Makan & Sing K With Buddies @ 28/3/2009

2009-04-01T21:58:00.001+08:00

Had a makan-makan with my buddy colleagues Mike + Cheng and ex-colleague Algy at Shogun Japanese Buffet Restaurant, 1U on this date which was basically another mini gathering for Algy’s birthday. Algy picked me up to 1U and as usual we reached the venue later after both Mike + Cheng had their 1st makan round. We enjoyed ourselves chatting or simply keh poh chi + makan non-stop and observing weird couples with gay, lesbian + normal-but-abnormal relationship that happens to passed by + viewable from our table during the 1 hour light off period in conjunction to 60 Earth Hour M’sia.

We then continued our gathering at Neway, 1U, lodged in the K-buffet session with our stomach fully filled. We started our song selection + microphone holding immediately after we enter to the room and we were also kind of “amaze” that Cheng can sang with such a high octave that even some ladies find hard to reach. Overall, we enjoyed our k session singing + running in the k room and had a fun + crazy k session before we ended our nite out gathering. : )

Buddy Ex-Colleague, Algy B’day Celebration @ 27/3/2009

2009-03-31T22:56:00.002+08:00

I organized a mini gathering and celebrated my ex-colleague, Algy birthday with two other ex-colleagues Liching + Chengni at Bubba Gump Shrimps, Sunway Pyramid on this date. As usual, the birthday girl Algy arrived most late. We had our food followed by a pre-arranged birthday rap by all waiters for birthday girl. It was fun having seen Algy being invited to stand on chair and shock her body whilst staff sang her the birthday song and fed her ice-cream as birthday cake. Hm~ Though it was a belated birthday celebration but we enjoyed ourselves eating and chit chatting with each others. ; ) Hope we able to have these kind of mini birthday gathering for everyone that we cares... Simply because sisters are there, no matter how much time and how many miles are between you. Happy birthday, Algy~ : D

My Course Mate, Jo’s Wedding @ 18 & 22/3/2009

2009-03-28T00:55:00.005+08:00

Jo’s actual wedding is finally here and over! We as her ji muis had our fun time tortured the groom’s heng dais with our pre-planned “challenge” and sharp claws. It’s real fun having seen those heng dais awful dance steps in feminine ladies bra & brief set, cheat in forming link from groom to bride’s room, sang out loud to help the groom express his love, the groom wrote and endorsed his 10+1 promises to the bride, found + tested out incorrect keys mixed in ice cube bail to unlock the bride’s room and best still, pay ji muis for the room key… Thanks Jo & Nix for the $ duh~ : P We then followed the couple back to groom’s house and their brand new love nest in Kipark, Puchong before the wedding ceremony called off.

The newly weds had their wedding dinner reception few days later at Concord Hotel, KL… All heng dais & ji muis arrived earlier to help out the couple program arrangement and reception registrations. We then later enjoyed our dinner and had our time to update each others about our recent life. It was indeed a successful wedding dinner, typically with all course mate and friends presence that has set the couple wedding merrier.

To the loving couple JoNix, congratulations… May your marriage blessed with happiness and wishing you a wonderful marriage life with your love one till the end of time…: )

Dinner Delivery From A Caring Colleague @ 16/3/2009

2009-03-23T22:54:00.009+08:00

Tonight, I received dinner delivered by my caring colleague, Martin who has recently shifted to his weekend home at Setia Alam whilst I was on Canopy Club night duty. It was his first try to cook this dish and I was lucky enough to have my first taste as well as to give him feedback for improvement. Hmm… Overall, it looks + tasted good except a little salty seems like putting too much anchovies. Thanks to Martin that I can feed my stomach without thinking hard to find and decide what to eat for dinner. : )

Ex-Colleague, Sam B’day Celebration @ 14/3/2009

2009-03-18T12:40:00.004+08:00

I celebrated my ex-colleague Sam’s birthday together with Sennie + Cecil + bro Stephen & Wallis + Eric and Alex at Neway Puchong on this date. After not singing k for quite some time, we select as many favorite songs and sang as satisfy as we could while we were graving our complimentary buffet dinner. We enjoyed our time singing and surprised Sam with the complimentary birthday cake + birthday song by Neway Karaoke although it was actually a belated birthday celebration. Happy birthday, Sam… : )

Tear Of Work… @ 4/3/2009

2009-03-13T00:03:00.010+08:00

Instead of tear of heaven, I had my tear of work today… showered my face for >1hr… T-T I’ve never cry because of work and today… my tear drops… I was totally disappointed, upset and stressed to found that my bunch of team mates who my boss and I thought they were good team players with strong team spirit actually not as what we think off after thus far we have been working together. Out of a sudden shock, it seems and as if that only both my boss + me was clapping with one hand and take them for granted… Me and boss indeed, had a long chat session after the strike and we both struggled to find solution to our ultimate manpower shortage. It really takes a lot from both of us to stand still + uphold our main objective to get things done and make things turn over in half a year. Sometimes, I did wonder… why I have to shoulder for all these stress, why I’m being put at the center sandwiched by both end, why my team mates / friends turn out not to be a mate / friend etc etc. Perhaps, it is just like what and how my few bosses advised… > You will find who your friend is and who not actually your friend when one hike higher to see from a higher angle. I guess now I understand why that higher management will normally goes along with peers who is about the same level… : (

- I’ve learnt “peer pressure”, sincere thank to my bosses for their given valuable coaching and it’s real sad to acknowledge this proven fact -

Jo’s Ji Muis Gathering @ 1/3/2009

2009-03-08T22:41:00.004+08:00

Jo initially arranged a pink ji muis gathering prior her actual wedding day at Cupcake Chic, The Curve which was then changed to Secret Recipe, The Curve on the gathering day itself having seen the original venue doesn’t have any seating area. I arrived slightly late after I sent baby Oscar for day care at Pets Lovers Center, Ikano Power Center on the day and also attended the gathering were Singhooi, Farnghooi, Pooiling, Vay + Yen where we were all in pink as per Jo’s request except the bride to-be. We enjoyed our time getting known to each others, planning out ji muis’ claws operation as well as time gathered around. Despite than the above, the bride to-be has also finalized her request that all ji muis to attend the actual wedding day in purple top + white bottom. Hehe… ^_^

SPSB Charity Visitation ’09 - I @ 28/2/2009

2009-03-05T23:12:00.008+08:00

I joined my colleagues for the very first so-called SP Charity Visit on this date, it was the initiative from my corporate colleagues who started off and organized this meaningful visit. There is a total of 4 shelters that we initially planned to visit but we only managed to visit three of them due to one of the place was having another gotong-royong visit by other charitable party. We brought them all our extra door gifts from the last SP Annual Dinner + the recent Setia Alam CNY event and the kids were happy to have us around. Of course, we were also happy to be around with these bunches of less fortunate kids. After some understanding from the operator + helpers / guardians, we will for sure re-visit them bringing their most required needs if time is feasible… with our heart crossed. : )

Work Diversification… @ 16/2/2009

2009-02-28T00:06:00.004+08:00

Recently, I experienced work diversification… a total diversify of work portfolio! I don’t know this is good or bad but I know this is the change that is going to affect me current life practice. I have no idea how all these came across as it was a sudden change that I’m being nominated to relocate with a different work portfolio after the sudden left of our club manager and the most important is I have also no idea why I sort of agreed to the offer the same day without asking for time to consider. =.=” Well… some of you might think that I could have been promoted with added wages or what, but the fact is I’m just being the so call acting club manager filling the empty operation slot like how the Chinese proverb says “a country cannot live without king”. Yes… of course management did mentioned that there will be an employment review later but bare in mind, this is an “if and only if then but” case. What I’m going to do next? I do whatever I can do with my best lor… =.=

2009-02-24T22:54:00.004+08:00

I celebrated V’day with my girl friends, Chengni + Liching + Chloe + Mandy this year spending the night together… Initially, we planned to attend a singles only party but we gave up the party after we managed to found the venue with the help of GPRS because we were worries having seen the quite hidden + dark surrounding. We then ended up with a dinner at Secret Recipe SS2 and drink at Coffee Beans Solaris Mon’t Kiara. Though we’ve given up the seems-to-be-fun singles only party but we were happy and enjoyed our V’day together with girls talk throughout the night. : )

It was a simple Setia Alam residents’ event with its 2 major hamper and mandarin oranges guessing competition and its wowing 8 feet’s tall CNY hamper as the grand prize of Guess the Mandarin Oranges competition.

How all the Tong Shui tasted? Err… I don’t have time to give any of those a try simply because I was on duty with heavy task. However, staff were then be treated with a bowl of Double-Boiled Hashima With Red Dates ( Shuet Kap Hung Lin 雪蛤红莲 ) at the end of tiring day besides than bottles of Herbal Tea ( Leung Shui 凉水 ) treated by our GM throughout the day after having seen us working hard towards this successful event under the usual CNY hot weather. The event was overall a success with everyone’s effort, hope this effort could bring us to a better year of Ox!

All's Well, Ends Well 2009 家有囍事 2009 @ 30/1/2009 ( 5th Day CNY )
Watched All’s Well, Ends Will 2009 [ 家有囍事 2009 ] with sis Winnie + sis Sam & bro in-law Koh on 5th Day of CNY at MBO Cineplex, Galaxy Ampang. It was really many years ago since our last caught of CNY movies and we were glad that we able to make it for this year.

The movie was OK compared to previous ‘All’s Well, Ends Well’ series namely All's Well, Ends Well [ 家有囍事 ] Y1992, All's Well, Ends Well Too [ 花田囍事 ] Y1993 & All's Well, Ends Well 1997 [ 97家有囍事 ] because of the FILO ( First In Last Out ) effect / first is the best + most not forgettable, perhaps. Nevertheless, it does create laughter for all throughout its 1hr 36mins running time despite than the less prosperous CNY due to economy uncertainty.

Jo’s Ji Muis Invitation @ 20/1/2009

2009-01-29T23:27:00.003+08:00

Jo sent us her wedding Ji Muis ( sisters ) e-invitation on this day which was my 1st time getting an invitation card after being Ji Mui for many times. Opps… I’m exposing my old age and telling the whole world that I will not be getting married because Chinese believes that a lady whom have been Ji Mui for more than 3 times will not be able to find her other half. Sigh… : (

I love the invitation message “Would you be my ji mui?”… But, do I still be able to hear “Would you be my wife?” after I say “yes” to it? Anyway, it’s just too hard to resist and I’ve already agreed to this dearly invitation. ^_^
