二零零七年花絮之Merdeka Millennium Endurance

工作实在太忙了，写部落格的时间也少了。比起去年，写心情谈生活写照的时间还真是差一大半截。若是有时间，也是拿来偷懒休息的。不过，趁二零零七年还没结束之前，现在还来得及与大家分享和回顾一下这一整年的一些精彩花絮。





八十元的pass，就可以全场跑，全场看，真是过足瘾！


今年活动还真多，F1，国际烟花赛，还有Merdeka Millennium Endurance。我不是玩车一族，但是听到那vroom vroom vroom的声响就会觉得很亢奋。托大弟弟的福，才有机会去观赏这一场别开生面的Merdeka Millennium Endurance。一张八十元的pass，就可以让你全场跑，全场看，甚至于还可以进车房。





弟弟的组员, Toyota Levin，编号110


这一场车赛持续进行十二小时，从早上十一时至晚上十一时。每一个小时轮流更换一位车手。一个小时二十个圈。我、ney-ho、还有明仔，简直是爬上爬下，东西南北到处走，到处拍，好不过瘾！饿了渴了，找东西吃喝；累了，找地方小歇；热了，往冷气室躲。哈哈。。。比起看F1，活动空间自由很多。不过，还是各有千秋，各有各的精彩。





队员们必须守车房规矩，还得快手快脚地换轮胎、添油等等。

图二为队员给车手指示时间和已经完成了多少圈。

途中，大弟弟的那一组还发生了一点状况。车的废气尽然跑回车内，原因是其中的通气管断了，所以坐在赛车座的车手不能承受那一股气流，导致晕眩，最后还被送去急救室。所幸发现得早，两位车手都安然无恙。其后，车被修理后，整组队员还坚持跑完全场，很有体育精神。虽然不在Top 10排行榜，不过据大弟弟的解说，成绩还算不赖。他可是有一点点的遗憾，因为自己没来得及参与这一场车赛。因为才从日本公干回来，不够时间报名做身体检验，而且赛车执照过期了。他说，明年再来！

vroom vroom vroom，刺耳又刺激！

整个赛车时间真是长之又长。我们三人没跟完整场至结束，因为还得赶去第二场盛会-- 国际烟花赛，今晚是意大利队，不容错过， 真的是忙！

“算”

一些事情，若不是你我控制得到的，
你通常会有怎么样的反应？
嗯，我会用的一个字来看待这一类事情 -- 就是“算”
因为，再烦再多，若是依旧改变不了的事实，
何必去强求呢，不是么？
世间路，有顺顺利利的，有坎坎坷坷的，
不论你做出怎样的选择，得到的结果都一定是不同的，
最重要的是，当你做出某样抉择的时候，
你是信服的、满意的、接受的，
选择“算”的话，就必须是“算”到底，
了无牵挂，才算真正放下，“算”！

Jogja-Solo, One Millionaire Trip (3)

haha...back in action for my Jogja-Solo trip. I'll have to take 'n' years to finish the 6 day-5 night story...hehehe...bear with me, it really takes some time to flashback in order to capture all sweet memory about Jogja-Solo...


Day 3 ~ 28.07.07 (Saturday)

Ohayoo…
As usual, breakfast provided by hotel, two options here: fried rice or toast. After breakfast, as what we have planned last night, we went and did the price survey for trip to Prambanan. Uh…very effective indeed. Less than 20 minutes, everyone went back to the meeting point and we were able to get the best deal at Rp300,000 for transportation to Prambanan. We would be heading to Prambanan at 2pm. So, we still have plenty of time to capture some hot spots in jogjakarta – Sultan Palace, Kratan, Ngasem Bird Market and Water Castle.

Sultan Palace, Kratan
The palace was built elegantly. Everyday, 7am, 11am and 4pm, there will be a tea-serving ceremony for Sultan. The “dayang-dayang” (ho ho ho…not really young lo, they have been serving tea for Sultan from young time till now) serve tea for Sultan even he’s not around. It’s the traditional custom of the palace that has been practiced from old time till now. Normally, the king will be at Governor Office (sometimes, the Sultan could be in Jakarta for Parlimen meeting) in the morning till 2pm, then he’ll be back to the palace. That’s the reason why the palace is closed for the public at 2pm.

At Sultan Palace, you can see a lot of displays on tea sets, plates, bowls, etc, all gifted by other countries to the Sultans of different generations.

The most important thing we discovered here…the history of each sultan (or king). You’ll be amazed with their marriage experience, especially.
First 5 wives, 30 children
Second 20 wives, 75 children
Third 5 wives, 25 children
Fourth 5 wives, 80 children; 90 years old passed away
Fifth 3 wives, 9 children, 35 years old passed away
Sixth 6 wives, 23 children
Seventh 30 wives, 80 children
Eighth 8 wives, 41 children
Ninth 5 wives, 23 children
Tenth 1 wife, 5 chidlren

Water Castle
Well, water castle was once a special place built for the king to gather all “dayang-dayang”. No wonder the king all married with so many wives and children. Some parts of the building had been destroyed while some are still well-preserved. If you look at the design of the castle, it’s creative and unique. Fun to explore around.

Ngasem Bird Market
In bird market, you can see lots and lots of different types of birds are sold here. Smelly anot? Birds’ shit smell, sure have lo, with lots of chirping sounds which had form an unorganized rhythms, but nice one. Well, so many birds, who’s the buyer? Emm…Some buy to be kept as pets, some buy for contest, and some are for eating (cruel ya!!), all sorts of purpose.

Lunching…
Wow…today’s lunch was real COOL! Not eating in a proper restaurant but standing at a simple “ugly” stall in the Palace and eating. Don’t judge thing by its cover. The food were yummy…we ate a lot…mihun goreng, nasi & sambal, biscuit with don’t know what’s the filling and jeruk, the nice cooling beverage. Guess what, it’s only Rp25,000 for all. Ten of us eating, each one 2-3 packs of mihun or nasi…really syok la this meal! Where can you find things with 10 cent or 20 cent (in RM) in this world again? No impossible but pretty hard, isn’t it? we ate ice-cream which was originally made, taste heavenly, Rp2,000 per cup. After feeding our stomach, still left some time before our transport to Prambanan come. Haha…we borrowed a bicycle from an uncle who also enjoyed meal there, and we started cycling around the area…ho ho ho…just like go back to the kiddy time…

Prambanan
Our mini bus came, we were heading to Prambanan around 2pm. It took some times before we reached Prambanan…time to take a short nap to increase our energy level for more fun to come…

Went to Prambanan, with so many temples around, feeling myself like back to Angkor Wat again. There are four temples to be visited here, including Candi Sari, Candi Lumbung, Candi Sewu and Candi Bubrah. Most of the temples here had been destroyed, while some are in the restoration now.

Romantic Sunset
Yes!!! The sunset was fabulous beautiful. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1…romantic counting down with ney-no for the sunset disappeared from the sky. Hahaha, seeing us counting down there, one of the foreign visitors also felt funny and laughing at us…but who bothered?!

Ramayana Ballet
After sunset, we are heading to Panggung Ramayana to view Ramayana ballet. It’s a worth-to-watch show (Rp40,000 per person). However, it’s best if you could read the story plots first to gain better understanding before the show start. If you were on the spot, you’d know why…so many characters, just look alike, don’t know who is who; suddenly this died, suddenly you see him alive; who is innocent, who is devil…wow…really made your head size double BIG! Well…two hours sitting there and enjoying the show, real confused and exciting!

Oyasumi...
After Ramayana show, it’s already 11pm plus. Haha…some of the team members were still very energetic, so, 6 of them heading to Bukit Merapi (Rp140,000 per pax) straightaway; while the remains, 4 chose to stay in hotel (including myself), enjoying the night view at Jl. malioboro, having McD and chill-out for beer in room. That’s life! Well, ganbatte ne, for those who took the challenge to conquer the Bukit Merapi! Tell you what, the bed and pillow in Green Gloria Guest house is real comfort for a good night sleep….oyasumi…


To be continued...

Brainteasing Time!!

Chillout Time! Take a break, relax your brain cells. Try the brainteasing quiz below:-

There is a bus with 7 girls inside,

Each girl has 7 bags,

Inside each bag, there are 7 Big cats

Each Big cat has 7 small cats,

All cats have 4 Legs each!

Now, how many Legs are there inside the bus?

It's School Holidays!

Ho ho ho..it’s school holidays again! Haha…why am I so excited? Why am I so happy? I’m no longer a student. I do not study. So, what does holidays to do with me? That’s important! Coz I’m a road user, a car driver who spends so much time on road every day! When there’s school holiday, there’ll be truly a break for road users, especially ME, who never gets smart on the directions. Traffic in everywhere seems to be smooth, no jam, no hassle, real relaxing driving journey…hulala…

What an insane thought: if 365 days were to be school holidays, how nice would it be? I’m starting my day dreaming…if that would be the case, oh…unbelievable!

Oopps…sorry, perhaps it’s nothing to do with school holidays. The main cause is still left unsolved. What a foolish question! Oh…You may get what I mean, everyone (if not all, by majority) knows where the problem lies behind. So, who caused the delayed? Who caused the jam? Well...it could be someone who don’t admit the inefficiency; it could be someone who don’t see his/her idiotic driving skill; it could be someone who’s in day-dreaming; it could be someone who’s so reckless…yiakkkk…all these are so so so SHITzzz!

新郎来娶新娘咯！

赶着新年前，娶个老婆好过年。所以呢，这一阵子至零八年正月，收到的红炸弹还不少，荷包出的还比进的快！哈哈！这不是重点，重要的是大家都找到各自的好归属，真是可贺可喜！好几位好友出嫁，自己也跟着忙，不单单出席婚宴，因为还忙着去做八婆兼新娘姐妹。

嗄，做新娘姐妹可不是那么简单哦，还得花一些心思，做战前准备，群策群力，琢磨着用什么方法挡住男方迎亲客，刁难新郎带走新娘，并趁机兜得更多的利是。尤其是社会的演变，从以前到今天，刁难的题目可是各式各样，越来越搞怪，花样可是层出不穷。这一个环节，除了考验新郎的诚心诚意之外，最重要的是同时也让整个迎娶新娘的场面热闹起来，留给新郎新娘一个美丽又难忘的婚礼！
当然，来迎娶新娘之前，新郎早已准备了好多红包，希望让新娘姐妹们高抬贵手，还带来了一班兄弟帮忙解决各种难题。新郎的兄弟党若是乖乖合作的话，就可以顺顺利利过五关斩六将接到新娘。当然，其中也有一些比较大男人的，禁忌这禁忌那，很不合作，把场面搞得很僵，简直让大伙儿汗颜！所以，玩新郎有多好玩，都得看来者是谁。遇到大方的新郎官和兄弟党最开心又好玩；遇到那些在那儿扮样的最泄气咯！（咳，若是不知道自己来的任务是要帮新郎官顺利迎娶新娘的话，回家睡觉吧，不要在那儿砸场！）

近来出席的两个婚礼都好好玩。一个特别在新娘都忙着想点子买材料考验自己的老公（罕见吧？）。话在今天若不玩，一辈子都不会再有第二次机会了。另一个呢最特别的就是帮忙布置新郎花车。由于好友两公婆都在外坡上班，婚礼却是在家乡举办，所以婚纱屋只提供布置新郎花车的材料并授予布置法，自个儿得“执生”咯！只靠新娘给于一些模糊（事隔好几天，婚纱屋纸上谈兵，那记得那么多呢？）的指示，我们几个姐妹们七手八脚终于把花车搞定，还真有模有样的，不赖于婚纱屋的功夫呢！大功告成！

叮叮叮！新郎来娶新娘咯！

槟岛休闲去

逢开斋节，正好有几天假期，一人跑到槟岛休闲去。厉害了我，在巴士上都可以认识到一位美女，也刚好要在Juru Toll下车，就一路谈啊、睡啊、谈啊。。。就到咯！ 到槟岛有鸿、慧和赐喜大佬的相伴，绝对赞！我人还没去，他们已经安排了一连串节目。尽地主之谊不止，还三天两夜奉陪到底，绝不让你有机会叫闷。

Sunway Carnival
位于北海最大的新购物中心。有慧这位名副其实的购物女杀手相伴，不怕你买不到东西，就怕你钱包不够厚！第一天，我就杀了两件衣，一件裤和一双高跟鞋。。。嘻嘻，满载而归！

Gurney Plaza
不购物就不叫shopping。我在这儿又逮了一双价廉物美的高跟鞋。哈，不知怎么的，我每次来槟岛总是会带回去两三双新鞋。慧说筹够三双，我再带你去下一站买多一双，笑得我有气无力，谢了她的好意。两双够了，够我应付即将来临的那些宴席。哎，难道吉隆坡就没鞋买吗？总觉得别人脚上的那一双鞋最美？一人购物太无趣了吧？还是人多热闹一点，购物的心情也不一样:P

卡拉OK
卡拉到那里都OK。。。从吉隆坡K到槟岛去。Redbox的歌嘛是一样啦，重点是K歌的人就不一样咧！这边就有新组合S.H.E（讲笑的啦，刚好三个女人，feel young again了嘛）。还有平时不K歌的赐喜大佬都给面子献声，真够尽兴！K了两个小时，个个都快要失声咯！

Batu Ferringi
来槟岛，不去Batu Ferringi怎么行。得去一趟，扫一些CD啊、VCD啊、DVD啊。。。多到你眼花缭乱，缭乱到还要眼花，不知该选买那张呢。。。

吃的天堂
来槟岛，不吃白不吃。美食当前诱惑，减肥下一餐再说吧！名句精华“久久一次不用紧”取自于鸿的可爱小弟，很管用的啊，吃得相当问心无愧，哈哈！槟岛虽小，可我每一次去吃的地方都不同，劲咯！赐喜大佬很会找吃哦！

炒果条
位于Jalan Selamat的安娣碳炒果条非常热卖哦！要吃还得排长龙，等上半小时至一小时吧。排这么久，只叫一盘太浪费了，不叫上三五七盘，还真过意不去。结果，我们四人帮每人轮流五分钟，差不多一小时吧，我们才尝到那人人垂涎三尺的果条。安娣真有一手，非常有碳炒味哦。不过尝试过一次就够了，你若在那儿排个几十分钟就会十分明白我的含义啦（要知道啊，我们私底下再讲）！

特别早点
离别时依依，赐喜大佬又带我们去Pulau Tikus享用早餐。茶餐室满座又客似云来的缘故，必须站在那儿等候空位子，有点身在香港的感觉。那儿的Pancake，Kari Laksa, Roti Babi真有一套！回味无穷！

多谢鸿、慧和赐喜大佬，给我一个欢乐充实的休闲假期！傻乎乎，呼啦啦!!!

My love will get you home...

"My Love Will Get You Home" by Christine Glass - One of the soundtracks in Hong Kong TVB drama Heart of Greed (溏心風暴).

Found it truly a soothing song that could bring a lost you home. Have been listening to it repeatedly, very meaningful indeed.

Enjoy the song...cheers!!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N0Frjer2drU&mode=related&search=

Lyrics
If you wander off too far, my love will get you home.
If you follow the wrong star, my love will get you home.
If you ever find yourself, lost and all alone,
get back on your feet and think of me, my love will get you home,
boy, my love will get you home.

If the bright lights blind your eyes, my love will get you home.
If your troubles break your stride, my love will get you home.
If you ever find yourself, lost and all alone,
get back on your feet and think of me, my love will get you home,
boy, my love will get you home.

If you ever feel ashamed, my love will get you home.
When there's only you to blame, my love will get you home.
If you ever find yourself, lost and all alone,
get back on your feet and think of me, my love will get you home,
boy, my love will get you home.

If you ever find yourself, lost and all alone,
get back on your feet and think of me, my love will get you home,
boy, my love will get you home,
boy, my love will get you home.

力不从心

原来疲累的程度比思想还要快几倍
还来不及写的文字早被疲累给吞噬
就这样所有的感受一天一天的堆积
有记一些些的，有挥之九霄云外的
想诉说的、想分享的、想发泄的。。。
待何时才能一一回味，一一畅诉？
怎么会感觉力不从心呢？
有点儿纳闷。。。有点儿气喘。。。

Jogja-Solo, One Millionaire Trip (2)

Day 2 ~ 27.07.07 (Friday)

Blur Ney-Ho…
Supposedly we should wake up at 4am but Ney-Ho had adjusted the alarm clock mistakenly. I was smart this time as I asked her 3.15am as in Malaysia or Indo. The one-time mistake I had made in Angkor trip had taught me to be careful with time difference. Haha…we back to sleep again for another hour.

The Sunrise…
Gathering at 4.45am, we reached Candi Borobudur in five-minute time. For the price we had paid, the driver just drove us to the spot and left us there. I thought it was going to have a tour guide to guide and explain to us. What a tricky package?!

No much crowd here to view sunrise. Very quiet. We walked around and climbed to the top to find the spot of viewing sunrise. Waiting in the dark, we saw the sign of the dawn going to break. The volcano was highlighted by orangey shines. It was beautiful. But soon, the cloud came over and covered the whole scene of volcano. “Zanne desu yo (pour thing).” Our morning mission was gone with the appearance of fog.

Even the sunrise was not there, we were still hanging around and taking photos. We were going to leave Candi Borobudur today, this was the last chance for those photography-addict to cover the balance which they might have missed yesterday.

American Breakfast…
When sky was getting brighter, it signaled the time to feed our stomach again. We left the candi for our breakfast in the hotel. Ho ho ho…American breakfast, the most expensive breakfast offered by the hotel. Each of us enjoyed it with different styles. Some made egg mayo sandwich; some took the toast with butter and jam; while some chopped the boiled egg into bits and pieces added with chili...whichever style, it was a happy filling breakfast. Uh...plus a complimentary light meal from sunrise viewing package – the banana fritter topped with cheese, just irresistible!

The Museum…
What’s next? Yeah…we went and visited the museum. The tour guide in the museum had enriched our trip to Borobudur. He had made such a good explanation on the history of Borobudur, from the building till to the damage, and to the restoration of Borobudur. Again, another great masterpiece of building in history. The architecture of Borobudur which was built without single nail and nut is real amazed!

Came to the Buddha statue located in front of the museum. This statue is believed to be the one put at the top stupa of Candi Borobudur. All of us made a pray in front of the Buddha. When you’re telling your wish to the Buddha, at the same time you’re pouring the water from the head of the Buddha. The ceremony is inherited from who and where is unknown. We just followed someone who made the praying before us. Will the wish come true? Ask yourself lo (all wishes are kept in the heart, nobody knows yours)…

Visiting other temples…
We had to leave Borobudur at 12.30pm to visit other nearby temples – Candi Pawon and Candi Mendut. Geographically Candi Pawon, Candi Mendut and Candi Borobudur are located in one straight line, amazed! It’s the workship of God or the human?

Candi Pawon, a small temple located in the village. Initially, we thought we were going to spend about half to an hour here. Haha…took only 3 minutes, we finished viewing the whole temples. We left the temple after 20 minutes. For photography, it’s still worth to spend some time. The professional gang was busy finding all the potential angle for best shot!

Candi Mendut is slightly bigger than Candi Pawon. There are three statues – representing God of richness, God of Happiness and God of Life sitting in the temple. One of the guards there was smart. When we entered the temple, he used a piece of zink to reflect the light from outside into the temple. So, we could see the statue of each God clearly and even snap the best clear shot. Haha…another round of praying and donation. Truly sincere …we’re praying everywhere we’d visited.

Shopping…
While visiting the temples, all team members had fostered the mood to start buying souvenirs already. Funny scene, if you bought something from one of the sellers, there would be another two or three sellers approached and offered you same thing with lower price. They had their “gong fu” to sell their stuffs, they would stick to you until you surrendered. Unless you kept your determination of not buying, else, your wallet would be “dried” very fast.

The watch showed 2.30pm in the afternoon, nobody complaint about hungriness. The philosophy of “dream camera, sleep camera, eat camera” was like assimilated into our travelling. To quench the thirst, we enjoyed coconut under the shadow. Real cooling… Thereafter, we departed for our next travel spot – jogjakarta.

Jl. Malioboro...
Took more than an hour, we reached first night guess house in jogjakarta, Wisma Nendra. After viewing the room condition, we decided not to stay in. What a kidding, the mini bus that sent us to Nendra guess house had left us behind. So what? Meaning that we had to either walk or call the tu-tu. Finally, we chose to walk and at the same time could enjoy the scenes of jogjakarta.

Alright, understanding direction will never be my skill. I left this important mission to the others. When we learnt the direction to Jl. Malioboro, all of us carried own luggage and backpack, and started our journey to find our accommodation tonight. Along the way, we visited few guest houses. Yea…it was real cheap but you would never like the environment and the room condition. More importantly, neither hot shower nor air-condition is provided. So, we continued our journey towards Jl. Malioboro.

Walking for more than half hour, the luggage was getting heavier and heavier. Everyone was hot, sweating and tired. Honestly, the street name of jogjakarta is long and difficult to remember. We asked people around about the direction. Luckily, other team members are good at reading map. If I were to read the map, I think all of us were going to get lost and getting more tired and exhausted.

At last, we reached Jln Malioboro. Very happening here. Lots of stalls along the street…oh..focus, now, our task was to find a suitable guest house for tonight first. Yes, very fast we found Wisma Persada Guest House (Rp175,000 per night). Though we were not satisfied with the guest house, but at least it provides hot shower and air-condition.

Dining…
Immediately, after putting our luggage, we rushed for our dinner. Everyone was hungry. We had decided to fill our stomach first and looking for our two-more-day accommodation in Jogjakarta. We went into a restaurant named Bakso Ato'y for our dinner. We ordered local food such as Soto (Rp6,500), Nasi Soto Ayam (Rp6,000), Lumpia Ayam Semarang (Rp10,000). Everything was delicious except Lumpia (like popiah) which was not of my favourite because of its taste but you must try. Well, they also offer different beverages with cute name. Do try out especially the ice blended one should help to quench your thirst.

Finding Guest House…
After filling our stomach, we started to find guest house. Along Jln CCC, there were a lot of guest houses, some cheap but room condition was lousy, some expensive a bit and room condition was fantastic but either full-house or not enough to fulfill our needs of 5 rooms. At last, we found Gloria Amanda Guest house. It’s a bit further in but the condition all fulfill our expectation - it’s clean and the bed is so comfortable to sleep on. So we decided to take this guest house for the next two days in jogjakarta. Hurray, everyone could go back guest house and took a rest now.

Oyasumi…
Before we could go to bed, we still had one thing needed to be arranged – our journey tomorrow, we did not have final words yet. So, after taking bath, we had a very short meeting. Haha…as everyone was tired and sleepy, we took very best solution for tomorrow’s journey. Agreed on a budget, we decided to break into three teams and survey the price around the area in 20 minutes’ time.

Then, no more then lo…meeting was dismissed. Couldn’t wait one more minute to rest our body, free our mind and nurture our soul…for a better enjoyable tomorrow travel journey. Guys were opposite our room. We warned them not to make big noisy snoring and disturb our beauty sleep…oyasumi…


To be continued.

Idiot, Hit & Run

I parked my little mouse deer at the roadside to get something for my friend this afternoon. When I tried to cross the road, an idiot (f%&$# lorry bastard WLY 32*) who was trying to make a reverse, knocked on my little mouse deer. I couldn’t stop him and was shocked seeing the scene. I did not know how to react in a second. Second later, when I was back to the reality, I went into the car and made a horn. But the idiot felt nothing at all and left the spot. Seeing his lorry leaving, I was puzzled there, should I go and get thing for my friend? Drive my car and chase the idiot? Or go and lodge a report? So confusing at that moment.

Looking at my little mouse deer, the front bonnet was sagged and scratched slightly. Heart broken, of course. Thinking back of it, most fortunately, I am still myself without any injury. I should be grateful and feel being blessed by GOD. Spend a little for a healthy me is nothing. Thanks GOD!













Still, back to that idiot, I was very angry and shivering a bit at that moment because the idiot ignored everything and just drove off. Did he really feel nothing when he banged into my little mouse deer? The sound was loud, to me. Arggghhhh…I couldn’t do anything, just pity on my little mouse deer. Last time also experienced hit and run by a motorbiker. Now, my little mouse deer is scratched everywhere...sighing...

Emm...GOD will be watching these idiots for everything they had done. They will be responsible and would get the paid one day… (cursing the idiots!)

烟花盛会

看烟花是一种非常享受的事，尤其是当你的头顶被布满天空的烟花给覆盖，那种感觉难以启齿，令人开心无比。观看过无数次的烟花，属印象最深刻莫过于二零零二年在双峰塔观赏的国庆烟花。

上个周末，介于马来西亚五十周年独立日，一场闪耀的国际烟花赛隆重在布城掀开序幕。此竞赛为八月十八日至九月二日，还有世界各地专业烟花队踊跃参加，大显身手，势夺默迪卡杯。这一场全所未有的音乐伴奏烟花竞赛第一次在马来西亚举办，为我国五十周年独立日暨观光年增添另一分盛气及吸引力。

当我们浩浩荡荡的往着布城出发，原来四面八方的人都涌着去观看着第一届国际烟花赛。到处都是水泄不通，路边堆满车辆，不只双泊车(double-parking) 甚至于三泊车 (triple-parking)。难以想象待会儿那些车辆如何出入。大家的重点都不在于此吧，在乎于待会儿的烟花表演如何缤纷夺目咯！

十时整，每个人的目光只限于天空范围，抬头兴奋地等待烟花的盛放。空中传来广播员宏亮的声音，简短地介绍第一届国际烟花赛，续而布城桥的灯光被关熄。音乐隐隐响起，接着五彩缤纷的焰火接连升空，劈呖叭啦，第一朵烟花在空中绽放，“哇”就是每一个人的反应。

随着音乐的伴奏下，一会儿天空成了花的海洋；一会儿色彩斑斓花瓣撒满天空，零零散散落下；一会儿我国的国花-大红花，迎风盛放在你眼前；还有那迷人的金色瀑布，又有冲天花，直冲而上，在高空射出万道金光。。。等等，煞是好看！甚是壮观！一炮接一炮，造型各异的烟花让每个人都目不转睛, 嘴角上扬，哇声不绝，喜悦的讯息不断的在空气中传播。

整整二十分钟的烟花表演，每个人都愣在那儿，无暇于其它思想。这一场闪耀的烟花非常独特，不是平时可观赏到的。整个烟花的程序，从烟花的发射、上升、产生至消失，应该是牵涉非常精心的策划和设置，以至于呈现这么一幅色彩缤纷既有次序的画面。 哈，有多复杂就不得而知啦，我只知道这一场烟花让我心花怒放，似乎把我带回了天真烂漫的童年。

看着灿烂迷人的花火闪烁在夜空中，心里会溢满了幸福，也充满了新希望。今晚，不单单是烟花盛会，也是朋友集聚一堂的盛会。多数都是冲着摄影而来，我可是去凑热闹的。有那么多位摄影大师在那，我尽管欣赏烟花好了。我们的盛会就这样一直持续到凌晨两点钟，大伙儿是累了，但却是不亦乐乎。

烟花，就这样绽放在空中，也绽放在心中。。。

专业一点！

带顾客去一间诊疗所要向医生拿医药报告。我还是第一次遇见如此脾气火爆的医生。一进去，“做什么？” 我试着解说状况，没听我把话说完，他就质问我“你身为代理的，不知道病人的资料不可以随便外泄的吗？我很忙，不会现在帮你写报告。你先回去，我叫护士通知你。。。”

医生先生，你怎么那么没耐心，说话的语气也不像个令人可以尊敬的医生。我当然有准备顾客同意书才会要跟你拿报告，你没水准，我可是专业的。你很忙，我当然知道，看你诊疗所外面那么多病人等着，难不成你得空没事做，开诊疗所坐在里面晃着脚。

我吞着那一股生气，没气地对他说，“那好，我会把顾客同意书交给护士，就麻烦您准备那医药报告。” 说完没道谢，我就开门走出去了。若我生病，见你一次面，应该不会再关顾你下一回！咳。。。见这么多医生，我还是第一次见到像你这样一位医生，还让我滚火的那种，跟你气，别人会说我跟你一般见识，免了！

在这林林种种各行各业，我说嘛，敬业乐业，无论你现在处在那个行业，若你很爱现在的工作，就应该保持那一份热诚，那一份水准和专业，以免破坏其他人对该行业的看法，影响其他同行业人士的作业。

Jogja-Solo, One Millionaire Trip

YES! This is the moment that I have been waiting for long. Time to fly, time to walk away from hassle life. Woke up at 3am because our flight is 6.55am. We need to reach there one and half hour earlier.

Day 1 ~ 26.07.07 (Thursday)
The Boarding…
Haha, a very beautiful opening for our trip to Borobudur. Our departure…an unforgettable one. Everyone felt like so relax, nobody worried about the time for boarding. 6.30am, some of the members were still enjoying breakfast in Mc D.

“Attention please, calling for Gate T1, flight AK 996, Mr Chan Chee Ming, Ms Er Chin Chin, Mr Hoh Cheng Meng, Ms Lee Kah Nyee, Ms Lee Lei Kuen, Mr Leong Cheng Leng, Ms Pang Fui Chin, Ms Shirley Cheong Yen Ling, Mr Teh Sin Wei and Ms Yeo Chooi Tsien, please…”

We were so puzzled when heard about the calling of our name. Looking at our watch, opps, it’s almost time for the flight to depart. All passengers in the plane were waiting for us. While rushing for boarding, the scanning for our small backpacks was slow, that had made each of us so excited.

We would be the cause of delay for the flight. The flight could have just left us behind but all of us on board safely for our Borobudur…cheers! You know, being the last 10 persons to get into the flight, we were ushered by the stewardesses, feeling ourselves like VIP…no kidding! Ho ho ho…but no next time, please!

Welcome to Solo…
825am, we reached Solo airport. Time difference for Solo and Malaysia is one hour. Emm…I don’t know how is the check-in area look like for a small place. Solo airport appears to be a real simple one. Someone was waiting for us outside the airport. We were lined up for the loo coz the journey to Borobudur would take 1 to 1 ½ hours.

The journey to hotel…
We were traveling along the narrow kampong road with many paddy fields. Comfortable to see these greenish scenes rather than buildings…real eye washing for the dirt and dust in town!

Nap after nap, we were still looking forward for our destination today. The driver told us 1 to 1 ½ hours, why we were still on the road?

11.30am, finally we reached Manohara hotel after two-hour driving journey. Manohara hotel is the only hotel in Borobudur. So, you have no alternative but have to pay higher rate for the room (Double-bed Rp351,000, Twin-sharing Rp368,500).

Easing the hunger…
Ding dong ding dong almost an hour, Lyn Lyn, the head of the team, had helped us arranged today’s activity. The stomach was making noise now. Without second thought, our first meal in Borobudur – took place in Sunrise Corner Coffee Shop inside the hotel. Nasi Goreng Special (Rp21,500) and Sprite in bottle (Rp6,000). Emm…yummy yummy…the chicken was real kampong chicken, tan gar le wei!

Exploring…
After restored energy level, we started our exploring to Candi Borobudur. The temple will be closed at 6pm. Some members who made this trip purposely for photography could have asked more time to fill their hunger of photography.

Few of us who were not so much into photography, took very short time to explore the whole temple and we had more leisure time to take a rest in the cooling area of the temple. While waiting for other team members who would like to devour the whole temple into their camera, we were making fun around ourselves too. Ho ho ho…they had their fun, we had our fun! Every minute was worth to treasure, no time for boring.

I thought Ming Zai, Ton Ton, Tai Meng, Lyn Lyn and Ney-Ho could create a 3D Borobudur using those picture taken by them. No jokes, compared to their professional standard in taking photo, ours is baby-shooting la. Sure, they need more time to feel, to find their angle and inspiration…strictly no disturbing!

6pm, the sky became darker. We left the temple. Time to clean ourselves and time to fill the stomach again.

Dining…
Found out from the hotel staff, we walked to the nearby “warung” for local food. We tried fish, chicken, vege, potato at Padang Raya. Wow…the chili looked like so-so, but it was spicy hot! The vege appeared to be very raw but not at all and it was acceptable. The potato, my favourite!

The stomach was still left with some space. So, we tried kacang (Rp2,000 one packet) and chicken sate (10 sates Rp10,000) wrapped with banana leaf which reserved the traditional taste at the street mamak.. The kacang was lousy a bit, some cooked, some not. The sate tasted okay but fat meat could have spoiled your appetite if you never like fat meat.

Visual Audio…
We were entitled a free visual audio for Borobudur story prepared by the hotel. After watching the audio, it had made our visit to Borobudur more meaningful. With every carving on the stone of the wall of the temple, it carries different story and lesson to the human. The carving on the stone has become blurred day by day due to sun and rain. Without the help of audio, I don’t think you could know it’s the story about the king, the lion, the cat, the two-headed bird, and so on.

Oyasumi…
Mission completed for today. 10pm, time for bed. We need to wake up at 4am tomorrow for Borobudur sunrise which has cost us Rp102,500. We must rest well to catch the best sunrise tomorrow morning. Oyasumi…

To be continued…

糟糕大白痴

如果二零零七要颁“最白痴奖”，那这奖项就一定非我莫属。原因很简单，因为我连搭轻快铁都会迷路。就讲今天就已经够白痴了。从Hang Tuah 要去Pudu Rakyat，我都上下火车好几轮。目的地是Pudu Rakyat，售票员还真没气回答我问的方向问题，就要我看他们放在柜台的指示（真差劲，这样就是待客之道吗？回家吧，别在那儿干活啊，干嘛摆一副不耐烦的样子，我若懂，才懒得问你呢！哼！）

我以为Pudu Rakyat就该在Pudu 站下车。问了那儿的一位乘客，告诉我说Pudu 有停车，我飞快地跑去对岸，就这样我来到Plaza Rakyat。咦，不对啊，我要去Pudu站，错了，我下车过了对面再等下一趟火车。上了车，坐了两个站，我是来到Pudu站啦。妈啊，那不就是我上一回下错站，还被迫搭巴士才去到同善医院吗！真的很忙，我又回头，等下一趟火车。

啊，我快要疯了，怎么连指示牌都还会看错，下一站却到了Chan Sau Lin。急死我了，我拉了一位马来妹问她怎么搭去Pudu Rakyat。她都还蛮好奇的，问我是不是睡着了，怎么错过了三个站才发现自己做错火车。我该怎么回答呢？告诉她我是白痴吗？告诉她我不会读指示牌吗？看我愣了一会儿，她却略有领悟，在那儿开始笑我。啊，真是丢脸！ 掌轻快铁的Uncle们不知道有没有看到有一个女孩子在那儿忙着上车又下车，上车又下车。。。怎么这么忙？RM1.20 还真值得！

我啊，驾车走错路还讲司空见惯，朋友都知道我的毛病。这下子嘛，搭轻快铁也会错（虽不是第一次，但这次最糟糕吧！），我不得不认自己的遭遇还真够经典，有谁能媲比？ 我自己都摇头，真糟糕！

Peugeot ah wei...

Sometimes in our life, something just happened until when you think back of it, you feel so funny and laugh at yourself. Haha…just like today is a funny one. I was in the car talking to my friend, Uma and waiting for the traffic light to turn green. When I turned my head to the right, I saw the man who was inside the car beside me, he was showing me the hand sign up and down, like telling me to push down or lower something. I didn’t get what he meant at the first place and the first impression I got was looking back at my own car, checking if I had made mistake or if there’s something wrong with my car.

When I made sure that my car is of good condition, I looked him back, he’s still showing me the same hand sign. Aha, this time he lowered his car window, then I understood that he wanted me to lower my car window. When I lowered my car window, he asked “Miss, did you know where’s Pizza Hut?” I told him “oh, yes, go further down, you’ll see it at your right.” After he thanked me, the light turned to green. Both of us looked at each other and burst into laugh, and realized that the man in the car was quite a looker and he was driving a Peugeot. COOL! Peugeot with a looker ah wei...both of us had the same thought in that second – “let’s go to Pizza Hut and have our second round” and burst out laughing again. Sighing...we missed the guy...

Haha…this is not the first time that this kind of funny scenario happened to me. Just few months ago, when I was in front of the traffic light nearby Eastin Hotel, I was listening to the radio and heard as like someone was horning. I looked at the rearview mirror, turned to the left and saw the Indian lady in the car beside me was actually horning at me. And then, she asked me to lower the window, pointed her hand and shouted “where did you buy your glove?” Aha…I was shocked at the first place, but very soon I replied her “From the night market.” “Where?” “Night market at Chao Yang.” “Oh, thank you.” I was still puzzled with that scene when I continued my journey.

Emm…why did it happen? Because I’m a blur queen? I couldn’t tell but it just happened out of my mind. For any reason it could be, these incidences eventually put up a smile on my face and cheer up my day :D

Say “Cheers!”

郊外野生记

六月十六日，我和一班认识又一半不大认识的朋友一起到郊外 – Sungai Chongkak 露营去。那可是我生平的第一次露营，国中时虽有当过童子军，可就没试过到郊外露营，想必应该会好好玩吧！
时间大概是三时左右，我们一行十一人便抵达目的地 - Sungai Chongkak。脚都还没站稳那片土地上，老天竟不作美下起大雨点来了。大伙儿匆匆忙忙地把带来的行李、吃的、用的都一一搬下车，急速的往露营棚方向跑。

找到了我们早就预订的露营棚后，快手块脚把最后一个我们自个儿带来的露营棚搭好，急忙地把东西抛留一边，大伙儿都缩进露营棚内避雨。啊，还没来得及四周围参观一番，我们就得躲进那极有限的空间里活动。

哈。。。在那小小空间可以做什么呢？嘛就是吃咯！吃完就讲咯，讲完又再讲咯！本来分别在两个露营棚的人，后来要凑大热闹，就干脆十一人都坐进一个大露营棚内。还好有三个名嘴主持人- 阿绵妲，珂莉和晶晶在那儿喋喋不休讲个不停，让大伙儿虽身在紧闭的空间内，还感觉到相当娱乐搞笑。

大约过了一个小时多吧，大家的屁股都坐得酸痛了，开始感到纳闷了，全身也黏兮兮的，可是那雨点就从没有小过。最后决定到亭子内避雨乘凉。哈，在亭子里绝对是比露营棚内凉爽得多！又开始嚼零食啦。而后，肚子开始打鼓，原本BBQ计划被迫取消，我们开始把煮菜工具和食物都搬到亭子，开始准备晚餐。第一道食物就是原汁原味的嘛都有营养餐。阿绵妲大厨不亏是大厨，让大伙儿吃得津津有味，享受到食物原有的甜与鲜。还有牛油煎热狗和鱼蛋，再配搭即时快熟面，赞！饭后还有多汁的西瓜甜品，小强切西瓜功夫不赖哦！哈，我们还有晶晶的吉打幕后音乐相伴，真是吃得不亦乐乎！

吃得饱饱的，天都暗了，雨都没停过，做什么呢？又开始讲话啦！讲得累了，食物还有所剩呢，大伙儿提议完游戏，输的人就罚吃。Mona、Lisa、芭蕉树还真搞笑，就这样食物都被骗吃光了！叮叮叮，任务完成！

晚上九点多了，雨还是在下着。不等雨停咯，我们分配组员负责待会儿守夜（我压根儿都没想到这回事，就只知道要来露营，真是的！）收拾好东西，我们各自回各自的露营棚，还没轮到守夜的组员，可以先养神休息。郊外的水还真凉得很，快速的梳洗，我们回棚休息。潺潺溪水，点点雨声，谁睡得着觉啊！阿绵妲、珂莉和晶晶守夜到清晨两点，也喋喋不休至两点，真佩服她们！

轮到我、师姐和明仔，小强和依莉卡也来凑热闹。那时候，雨终于停了。小强兴致勃勃提议夜宵。我们五人就再起炉煮水冲茶吃面包。我们也开始在那儿讲笑学广东。咦，时间很快就要四点了，我们叫醒肥珍（为什么变成肥珍呢？）、表妹和大明，轮到他们守夜冲茶咯！

终于早上了，雨足足下了十一个小时，所以隔天早晨的空气格外清新。一些伙伴早就起身煮水泡茶暖身。一番梳洗后，我们又开始忙碌了，当然是准备早餐。哈哈，又是吃咯！可就丰富得很，有土那牛油黄瓜面包、沙丁鱼牛油黄瓜面包、午餐肉、橙味蛋糕、热狗、蜜瓜。。。好料、好吃又好饱的一餐，简直是一级棒！路过的露营者都会用羡慕的眼光看我们吧。昨晚看到我们在吃，今天看到我们又是在吃，真不懂他们会怎样想我们这一班。。。哈哈！

接下来做什么呢？哦，当然是去四周参观，拥抱一下大自然。拍了一部《晶晶郊外惊魂记》短剧后，阿绵妲从昨天吵要下瀑布玩水，今天总算可以如愿以偿了。哈哈，原本只有五人下水，后来却演变成几乎全都下水。就因为那一套“你冻吗？我一点都吾冻啊，又左、又右、又左、又右。。。”，就这样一个个都被骗全身玩湿了。小强、依莉卡、阿绵妲、明仔、师姐和晶晶，你们是得嗝！

欢乐时光总是过得比较快，收拾好行李，清理了垃圾，大伙儿来个大合照，然后又是时候说拜拜咯！小强和依莉卡真细心，还为大家准备了一份小小郊外露营纪念锁匙扣。哈，我这个外人还真幸运，托大家的福，参加了这次的郊外露营。谢谢这次主办的朋友们，买这买那，连私家工具都搬上来与大家分享。谢啦！

有温暖的家不住，来郊外住；有舒服的床不睡，来睡会浸水、忙抹水扑报纸、还冷至入骨的露营棚，是不是拿苦来受呢？当然不是，若不是这样，怎样知道我们每天都那么幸福呢！这一次的郊外露营还不错，下一次？还可以有下一次，不过看过通圣择日会更妙！叮！

谢谢摄影提供：小强和大明

肚痛怕怕！

以前搭巴士尿急的状况不计其数，想回那些忍尿经验，我真庆幸现在的自己有一辆小车，可以随时随地停车以应付人有三急之需。

唉。。。忆起上个星期五还真是难忘，还会打冷颤。记得时间是下午三时左右，见了顾客用了午餐，正从焦赖赶着去疏邦再也会另一个顾客时，肚子竟突然在那儿闹别扭，开始阵痛，然后飙冷汗。那也罢了，路上竟来个大堵车，还真是叫天不应叫地不灵，实是很难忍受，可我还得忍痛继续驾车。。。

痛了、不痛了、又痛了、又不痛了。。。冷汗飙了，抹了再飙。。。反反复复。。。我只想找一个休息站或油站，就是找不到，老天爷不是在这时候和我开这么大的玩笑吧！救命啊！！！

终于忍了一段又一段的堵车路程，来到疏邦再也入口，不管三七二十一，就是SJMC了，我若来不及走到厕所晕倒了，也会有人救我。。。那时候，我真是那样想的。

哈哈。。。最终我是有走到厕所，在里面还保持了15至20分钟的沉默，痛得不懂如何形容。战后就是全身无力，昏昏欲睡。。。哟，真是人有三急都不好再有下一次，怕怕！怕怕！

有您有我！

母亲节时来不及写我对妈妈爱的宣言。不过，在报章上看到的这一首很感动的诗，还是忍不住要把它寄存在部落格上，与大家分享。

“今生今世，我最忘情的哭声有两次，一次在我生命的开始，一次在你生命的告终；第一次我不会记得，是听你说的，第二次你不会晓得，我说也没用。但两次哭声的中间啊，有无穷无尽的笑声，一遍一遍又一遍，回荡了整整三十年，你都晓得，我都记得。”

诗人余光中《母难日》之《今生今世》


妈妈总是任劳任怨，尽她的本份为家庭付出所有。给孩子最好的，却忘了给自己什么。孩子的快乐就是她最大的快乐；孩子的幸福就是她最大的幸福。总是怕孩子在外吃不饱睡不好钱不够用。而身为孩子的，是否把这一切的一切当做是理所当然呢？切要惜缘，惜福啊！

在这世上，相信除了妈妈再也没有第二个人最了解自己了。你最喜欢吃的、做的、种种喜怒哀乐都逃不过她那尖锐的眼神。生活上遇上波折或迷失方向时，妈妈就是最好的避风港。或许她不懂你的烦恼，更不能给于一个解决方案，可是她给的温暖却可以让你心平气和的找到方向。

妈妈的爱从来都不吝啬也没停歇过，从嗷嗷待哺的小瓜到今天长大成人有所成就的我们，她，还是默默地、默默地付出，就这样，一辈子。。。

妈，我只知道今生今世，有您有我！嗯，不要只记得关心你的孩子而忘了自己。要吃好好、睡饱饱、笑多多、乐开怀； 更要身体健康、要幸福哦！

First Quarter of 2007@零七的第一季

First quarter of 2007 has come to its end, what have you done so far? Have you achieved 25% of what you have planned? Aha…me? Let me scan through my own route map, how far have I gone…

1. Highlight of the year! Business is on the track. If compared to last year, I have performed better, but it’s still not good enough for year 2007 goal. Of course, with a lot of pressure to tackle! Ganbatte kudasai!

2. After one year in financial planning industry, I can still maintain my weight. What a relief! Most of friends in the same line or even different field gain weight easily! Approaching to thirty-aged group, must keep and maintain! Dynamic yoga does help in somewhere :P More exercise for healthier lifestyle, keep up!

3. Yea…now I’m better on the road direction? Should be…Cheras, Puchong, Subang, Damansara Jaya, Bukit Bintang, Kepong…etc are all in my list of memories. Still, I’d get lost somehow (night time especially), I’m a girl, what to do :P Will work harder!

4. My first travel destination was a 2-day-1-night free trip to Bukit Merah/Taiping offered by Ting. So good to be your housemate! Even it’s local but it’s something to me. Moreover, it’s Visit Malaysia Year! A great start! Go go go, holidays! More will come…

5. Cooking? Oh no, so long I did not touch kitchen utensils! Eat outside most of the time, no wonder less appetite recently! Em…will spare some time to cook a meal to reward myself. Cooking is such a fun thing to do, can’t afford to miss it!

6. Fruit? Feel so sorry on this. Hardly to see myself eating fruit. Must change! Em…go and shop for fruits this weekend. A thousand milestones start with a single step! I know I can do it! Everyday is a fruity day! Just do it!

7. Still dehydrate! No wonder my face does not appear to be watery at all! Must learn to drink more water… 8 glasses per day! Yam Seng!

8. Found a new motive for my life! While you are working hard at one corner of the world, I’ll do my best too here! You are my new motivational idol now! Yo…let’s move on!

Well, too much to be mentioned here. The main point is: it’s not the matter of how much you have achieved; It’s the matter of how much you have learnt? How much you have grown up? So, keep your 2007 dream and hit the bull’s eye this year! Yo yo...go go!
















Learning process: Learnt, unlearn and learn.

零七的第一季
二零零七的第一季已到尾声，你表现得如何？已达到你所计划的25% 了吗？啊哈，自己呢？让我看看自己的旅程，到底走了多远啦。。。

1．关键的一年！生意顺风顺意。与去年相比之下，今年的表现还不赖。不过，看一看二零零七拟定的目标，可还差一大截！压力是无可避免的啦！继续努力！

2．在财务规划领域已有一年了，还可以保持自己的体重，真是放下心头大石啦！许多同领域或不同领域的朋友好多都向横发展哦，真是怕怕！快要进入三十阶段的人士咧，可要好好儿保持咯！多亏有律动瑜伽 :P 多多运动，自然健康也多多，加油！

3．噎。。。方向感是否好一点啦？还好吧！焦赖, 浦种, 疏邦, 白沙罗再也, 武吉免登、甲洞等等都在我脑海地图记忆里了。虽然，偶尔还是会迷路（尤其是晚上），没法子，我是小女子一个 :P 会更尽全力的啦！

4．今年的第一个旅行地点就是由婷赠送的两天一夜武吉美拉/太平游。近水楼台先得月咯！虽是本地旅行，那可是一个好的开始，更何况今年是马来西亚光观年哦！走走走，旅行去！更多即将来临。。。

5．烹饪？我的天啊，好久没动厨房用具了！多数的时间都是在外解决，难怪近来胃口不好！嗯。。。会腾出一些时间煮一些美食慰劳自己。烹饪可是人生一大趣事，当然不可少咯！

6．吃水果吗？真是对自己不起。真的是吃太少的水果了。要改哦！嗯。。。这个礼拜就去买一些新鲜水果。千里之行始于足下！我一定可以的！每一天都是水果天！就这么说！

7．还是大量缺少水份！难怪我的脸没有水当当啦。。。要学多喝水，一天八大杯！干杯!

8．找到人生新推动力了！当你在世界的另一个角落努力时，我也在这儿一定会更努力积极。是你啦，我的推动力偶像，就向你看齐！哟，加油！

嗯，要讲的实在太多了，不过重点在于：所有的所有，不是因为你达到了多少，而是你学会了多少？你成长了多少？所以，继续努力去实现你二零零七的梦想！哟，朋友加油！

Green or Orange?

Paying Hugo lou sai a visit this afternoon. So pleasure that he made 2 glasses of nutritious beverage for me, with one in green and the other one in orange. Haha…what are the ingredients needed to make these wonderful tasty beverages? Let me reveal lou sai’s secret here. He said wanna open stall and sell. After all the recipes being told here, don’t blame me for no business oh, lou sai. Free publicity for you!

To blend a green nutritious beverage, you’ll need cucumber, bell pepper, bitter gourd, apple and celery. While, to make orange nutritious beverage, you’ll need orange, pineapple and carrot (oppss, should be three items kua, I have forgotten :P). One more secret: you must use transparent glass for either one of the beverage as that will enhance the feel and increase appetite.

Well, for green beverage, the taste may appear to be a little strange (with vege and bitter taste) to you. So, to make the beverage taste better and smoother, you could add a little bit of cooked sweet-sour plum water. As for the orange one, the taste is just fabulous coz it’s sweet and sour, yummy, yummy!

Lou sai said after one week’s intake couple with exercise, he has experienced some weight loss. So, if you were to go for weight loss and health gain, go for the nutritious beverage now. Green or orange, you can order from Hugo lou sai at 012-234 xxxx. He sure will entertain your order before he clean the juice mixer once a day :P!

p/s: Didn’t run into toilet after these 2 glasses of nutritious beverages. Haha…lou sai, 2 more, please!

Mama’s Daughter

Thinking back what mama had told me when i was a kid is quite true today. When I was a little girl, she always told me that I should learn how to tidy up the house, learn to cook, learn this, learn that, bla bla bla…else, you yourself would be suffering in the future. Well, normally you and I would keep their “nagging” for nothing. Let it flew in from the left and out directly from the right.

Of course, during that time, helping her to clean and cut some vegetables or meats were the simplest and the only thing I knew. Often, I helped for nothing good as she would complain that I had cut into the wrong size, wrong shape and even wrong line. Have you ever noticed that the meat that we eat everyday has those thin lines? If you didn’t notice those thin lines and simply do the cutting, it’d affect the taste and the texture. Haha…bet you’d never heard about it. Lots of theories came out from my mama and I’d taken it for fun. Therefore, most of the time, I’d choose to watch TV rather than helping her in the kitchen. Just couldn’t bear with all her “nagging”.

Somehow, I have felt what mama said last time proven to be true now. Since working, I stay outside. Chance to taste home-cook is obviously reduced. As I don’t even master 10% of her cooking skill (haha...what I cook is really meant for myself, you're not going to eat that coz the taste was @$#!&), I have to eat outside almost every day. Frankly, those mamak foods really could make me less appetite. Emm…too much of Ajinomoto, though.

Since my neighbour changes to this grandma-aunty, every time when I walking to my house after work, I’d have smelt nice and delicious dishes or soup cooked by her. Thinking of the meal I have taken or looking at the food I've bought, that grandma-aunty’s cooking smell really makes me thinking of my mama, makes me truly homesick (not to deny, I’m always a homesick gal :P)! I want go home!

Ah…how long have I not back to hometown? Not long, just more than a week’s time. But, mama, I’m missing your cook deeply. I wanna go home and eat whatever you cook for me, be it a simple mee sua soup with a fried egg. That'll be the most delicious food in the world!

Haha, how can I grow up like this? Always a mama’s daughter! Well, who bother? If there were option given, I believe most of us wanted to be a mama's daughter or mama's son for wholelife, being pampered in her arms all the time. Isn't it the happiness that not easily pursued in the world? Haha...whatever, I still choose to be a mama's daughter :P

听，我的声

闷在一个人的世界里太久
突然很怀念热闹
于是走到公园散步去
那里有小孩的玩笑声
有跑步者的喘气声
有朋友的谈笑声
有喷泉水的声音
林林种种的吵闹声
即使那里的人事物对我而言是陌生的
可有很多声音的陪伴
让我感觉不是自己一个人

走着。。。走着
多了一个声音的介入
那是我再熟悉不过的声音
时时刻刻都陪伴着我左右
尽管是吃饭睡觉驾车都好
不管在做什么
要离弃都不可能的一个声音
对，那是我内心的声音
一个给了我很多问号的声音
问了我很多“为什么”的声音
让我忙着找一个又一个答案的声音

一个让我纳闷
却让我成长的声音
矛盾参半，如何取舍？
就赶走那些无理取闹
让我胡思乱想的声音吧
不想生活里有那么多为什么
至少很多烦人的疑问会减少
因为有时不懂得如何去应付
更不想为了一个答案伤脑筋
走走走。。。
不想听到的声音

纵然，
声音继续为所欲为
我的声，不被理会
无止无休？
哈。。。当一切归尘时吧！

F1啊喂！

若是坐在电视前观看F1，我想我不用一会儿就可以打瞌睡或已经转换去下一台了。哈！倘若你有机会去到世界一级方程式赛车（F1）现场，保证气氛全然不同。四月八日，生平第一次前往F1赛车场，票是免费的（ING赞助Renault，我达到所需的目标，拿了张免费票 :P），总得去体验一下吧！

比赛还没开始，我坐在那儿观赏人潮。真是奇怪，怎么这么多人愿意花那几十元，甚至百元，在烈日当空下撑伞榻蓬，为了只是看他们心目中支持的赛车队？摇了个电话给弟弟，想问他人在那里？几时开赛啊？怎知他那边厢有一点儿失落的答我说他在家里，女友胃痛，不来F1了，就在家透过电视观赏好了。哈，粗心的弟弟竟然也可以这么体贴，真以他为荣！嗯，若果今天我不在现场，肯定我永远都无法体会到为何弟弟如此爱车、痴迷于赛车。

现场人群济济不再话下，那风驰电掣、声浪轰鸣的赛车声才是经典。简直是震耳欲聋，几乎无法与邻人会话！听赛车声呼啸过，心中就会产生一股莫名的兴奋！我无法以字句形容，还是你亲自去体验会比较快感。

准备好相机想捕捉个好镜头，可事实上就没那么容易。那从远处传来划破长空F1赛车几乎与声音同时冲来，在“来了来了”的瞬间，手还来不及按快门，赛车就已冲到眼前，续而飞驰向遥远的彼岸他方，根本无法“捕获”超速的赛车！捉了车头不见车尾，还是写个“服”字，我选择把那急速快感深深烙印在我脑海里。（事实，你是需要一架好相机来捕捉好镜头。）

倘若明年你有时间，去亲身沉浸在世界一级方程式赛车的热潮当中与它的急速快感，那现场听到的赛车声绝对是电视或广播里无可比拟的。老实说，我绝对不是个车迷，看完整个比赛尽然不知赛果，鹿死谁手。虽是羞死了，可每一件事总有第一次吧。赛车发动的轰鸣声响太有震撼力了，F1，就是这样喜欢上了！

哇。。。怎么我的鼻子这么红？没照镜子还不知道，一看到镜中的自己真的会吓一跳。哈哈。。。都是世界一级方程式赛车(F1)留下的后遗症。 F1啊喂！

p/s：我拍的照片只有蚂蚁这么大，看了都不过瘾！奥特拉面，等你的靓照啊喂！



















p/s:赛车结束了，我才照下这张相。后面的三辆灵魂赛车，奥特拉面免费赠送的，真是糗！

三八幸福

有没有朋友以dear、darling、honey、sayang、babe等等称呼你？觉得很肉麻吗？其实不然，因为那意味着你与他/她的亲密关系的一个称号。而且，可以不止一位，可以有好几个不同的人都以一个同样称号来称呼你哦。当然不是花心，是你交友用心！

哈。。。那为什么写三八幸福？因为三八是妇女节，更重要的是这天也是我阿dear的生辰。嘻嘻。。。我是有几位阿dear，可今天我要写的是三八阿dear。当然，原因不是因为她三八，只因她正是在这富有意义的日子来到这花花世界，而且不愧是百分百妇女节的Babe哦！

何出此言？当然有理的啦！要形容她吗？不难亦不易。为什么呢？因为她具有妇女应该拥有的精神与才华，简直是出得厅堂，入得厨房。家务打理得井井有条外，还拿手煮得一桌好菜！做事谨慎、有条有理、交友四海、人见人爱，车见车载！而且绝对是个细心的聆听者分析家，讲的道理都还深奥过人。

我与她相识不过两年，却属志同道合的一对。新鲜事一起八、丑史伤心史快乐史一起分享。。。每每无聊时，都会到她家呆一阵儿，然后又尝一尝她的厨房手艺，解闷又解饿，真是一级棒！

在短短的半年，我们就组织了一项八天七夜的巴厘岛自助旅行。说起这件事都还真妙。那时的我从来没有搞过自助旅行，她却傻傻地跟我走了。那一次的自助旅行还真是多阻碍。购买了机票只是仅仅一个星期，巴厘岛就遭人袭击。用尽了一切办法就只想把机票给换个地点，但却失败！家人可就急着劝说我们放弃。经过一个月后的资料收集，我们还是飞到那儿享受我们的甜蜜假期。两个人的旅行可真是有趣，想去那就去那，想做什么就做什么，完全没有什么好顾虑，真是轻松自由！

阿dear，与你相识日子虽然不久，但却好像很久很久了。属于你我的故事都一箩箩，怎么写都写不完。就把它永远留在你我心中，你我的记忆里。。。

可爱的三八阿dear，一个知心的朋友，让我每天也享受着三八幸福！谢谢了！

p/s: 迟完成的部落，迟来的祝福，希望你不会介意。三八生日快乐，愿你每一秒每一刻都被幸福环绕着！

Life Scribbles

Life is Confusing
For many efforts you have been putting in, it may eventually bring nothing to you. Well, life is all about give and take. You don’t ask for return every time you give, don’t you? For many thing you have done, God would have bestowed you with something that you couldn’t see. "It may not happen today, but later". Am I too stubborn to believe that to be true? Or I just wanna make myself to believe what I believe? Life is confusing, most of the time…

Life is a Nut
No matter how many times you have undergone one same experience, you’d still feeling one kind when the same incidence happened again. Thereafter, trying to find all sorts of reasons and excuses to convince your heart to believe what you want it to be. What are you trying to deny? If it’s the matter of fact, then just take it easy! Gosh, if life were to be so easy, why were there so many people gone mad? Life is a nut, sometimes…

Life is a FOOL
The effort you have made may not be seen by someone else; someone else may have taken your place instead. The cover is always wrapped nicely to have its better impression. How about the inner? The content? Is it of what you want? We were told “don’t judge thing by its cover”. In fact, how many have been a fool? When you use your heart to judge, would you really could see the real value of one thing or even a person? Life is a fool, all the time…

Life is a Play
To win the games, I could have played a trick; I could have played the gimmick. But, conscience keeps telling me not to be. The reality is people who played the trick won the games. Thus, I was the loser of this game. Back to the basic, if you were to win a battle, you must first know how to play your role, play smart trick. While, pity with those who have to put a mask on their face most of the time? How suffering? Life is a play, infinite time…

Life is a Circle
For anything that you want in life, you must first learn how to let it go. For if it's yours, it will eventually turns back to you. For if it never turns back to you, you have never had it before. Try to be a new-born baby again. Unlearn and learn. That will make you grow faster and unlimitedly. Life is a circle, timeless...

一呼一吸

人，一生的开始与结束，基于那一呼一吸吧！
在最寂静的时刻，去感觉那瞬间的一呼与一吸
是温和的？是仓促的？抑或是微弱的？
这么细腻的动作，没有人会去真正的注意吧?
原因无它，人一出世就自然懂得这最基本的动作
每一分每一秒都没可能间断的活动
在呈现那一呼刹那，若一吸无法配合
整个人生都要改写了
哎，体会良多。。。
不就因为鼻老爷患上了一大堆毛病
不是鼻塞，就来个大流鼻涕，再加个小丑大红鼻
一年四季三百六十五天
不论是天气或是环境的转变
他可真会耍帅，还敏感十足闹情绪呢
拜托啦，鼻老爷，那重大任务一呼一吸就靠你了
还有谁做得比你好啊？
来，乖一点儿，
一呼、一吸、一呼、一吸。。。

快乐猪年

感觉今年的新年气氛怎么淡薄了
没有像以往般的浓厚闹哄哄
是自己对季节的变换少了热诚
亦或是那已不是我所在乎的了
都无所谓啦，最重要的是
趁个新年休个长假喘喘气
好好儿在家享受家的温暖
与好友相聚一堂畅谈欢饮
想睡就睡，还要睡到自然醒
再努力泡泡几套搞笑连续剧
弥补平日都无法完成的“使命”
痛痛快快过个金猪年！


敬祝诸位猪年行大运
吉祥。如意。安康！

路，好难哦！

兜了两个小时，约好顾客的时间已经是迟了，还不在话下。竟然，约好的Menara Bumidaya 和Menara Dayabumi摆个大乌龙。这个话题已不再是新鲜事了。不要讲是自己，身边的人都拿我没策。少费心思了，应该是病入膏肓，无药可救的地步。真白痴！一个字 —“笨”，还要加“死了”—“笨死了”！

路，真的有那么难吗？白天和黑夜就差那么多？怎么走了怎么多遍，还是犯同样的错误呢？朋友们解释得这么仔细，怎么自己还是左右不分啊？脑袋到底少了那条筋？路，是死板板在那儿不动的啊，去和回就只有反方向的分别，怎么这样都搞不清楚呢？要怎么教？要怎么学？你说，你说！

为什么呢？为什么呢？什么时候才会学乖啊？什么时候才会学精啊？什么时候才会学变通啊？我，哑口无言，沉默是金。

今天，路，把我征服了！此刻，心，好倦，好伤哦。。。

奈得何

（一）
咳。。。路上的车辆日益增多
人人皆有车，理应当高兴
但却叫人担忧不及
因处处可闻鲁猪驾驶
不如改骑牛马驴吧
非但不用遵守条规
更可以叫人不需像人！哇靠！

（二）
叹。。。光阴荏苒飞似箭
不够时间的人很多
浪费时间的人亦多或更多
当白发在丛丛黑发中滋长
不好再哆哆嗦嗦，怨这怨那
世事有因有果，没有播种何来收割？
莫叹少壮不努力老大徒伤悲。。。绝！

（三）
哎。。。总是等待期待
机会来匆匆去也匆匆
算得到少之又少
算不到却可以很多很多
人生旅途每天都在抉择
没选择其实也是一种选择
欣然接受一切的一切才是明智之举！亮！

路人

坐在离我两个人的距离
我发现一个看了令人很舒服的你
和两位看似阿拉伯人的朋友
你讲着一口流利的英文
和他们高谈阔论
讲什么啊？
我国的风俗文化？
亦或是你个人的有趣生活经验？
可能吧？只不过是我的猜测而已
我不是很留意你们的话题
只是想着。。。
在这色彩斑斓烟火弥漫的夜空
微微风含着阵阵菊花香
湖里高高摩天轮的倒影
还有远远威武双峰塔衬托着
恰好反映着人亦如景
虽你我是如此的近距离
却有着咫尺的陌生
无所谓，你也只不过是路人甲乙丙
