Life's Special

手放开。。。

2011-12-14T16:10:00.022+08:00

人，

往往忘了或是得意忘形吧，

当双手都捉满东西的时候，

再也没有空间捉住其他了。

手，

若捉住的东西于太长时间，
不放开的手会觉得疲累吧？

被捉住的东西亦不舒服吧？

那，

捉住的东西真属于你要的？
不如，把手放开，松一松，

再从新调整，好好思考衡量，

再探讨应该为自己捉住什么。。。

~归属感。No String Attached~

2011-11-29T18:22:00.018+08:00

什么是归属感？
那是什么来的？
归属感要来做什么？
归属感可以要多久?
归属感可以买吗?

没有归属感的家，你不想回，因为不温馨；
没有归属感的工，你不想上；因为没势气；
没有归属感的人，你不想跟，因为不实际；
没有归属感的梦，你不想发，因为不真实；
没有归属感的心，你不想要，因为没灵魂。

没有归属感，随浪逐流?

没有归属感，不踏实稳重？

没有归属感，感觉孤独无助？
没有归属感，只想继续流浪？
没有归属感，不再是自己？

归属感在那啦？
归属感迷路了？
归属感不见了？
归属感被偷了？
快，把归属感找回！

“The reason for the kite to fly happily in the sky, is not because it's free,
It's because there is a string that will eventually tug it close.
Even if it could fly freely, no matter how high it flies...
Even if it could reach the outer space, it wouldn't be happy.
Beyond that string is a place to go home to.
Even if it gets tattered and torn, or becomes useless,
There is a gentle hand that will hold it close." ~ Japanese Drama (Kimi wa Petto)

~小小大事~

2011-11-24T14:16:00.005+08:00

‘小事’是什么定义？
在我们眼里的小事，
可是在他人眼里的重要大事。
在他人眼里的大事，
可能只是我们眼里芝麻绿豆小事。

总认为妈子的那些姨妈姑姐琐碎事是小事，
可在她眼里可就是大件事！
妈子的家务是大事，不做不行，
拿，还被她责骂说会影响终生幸福！哇靠！
对我而言工作事业最重要，占居榜首嘛！

我们认为不值得花时间的小事，
却是他人认为必须认真去对待的大事。
我们认为可以怠慢的小事，
却是他人必须马上行动的大事。
小事大事做，大事小事做！

爸子的小事，妈子的大事；
大人的小事，小孩的大事；
男人的小事，女人的大事；
雇主的小事，员工的大事；
我的小事，你的大事!

懂了，
关键在于角色的扮演。
没有对与错。
明了，不要忽视小事，
那是成就今天你的小小大事！

"Don't ignore the small things -- the kite flies because of its tail"

美梦。。。醉醒。。。

2011-11-17T09:42:00.018+08:00

二零一一年十一月十一日做了什么特别的事嚒？
很多人或许会去做一些难忘的事吧！
偶，111111，就发了一场很长，很美的梦，醉到不愿醒！

话说自己来到一个充满大自然的地方。
里面建有好多间好多间的度假水池别墅。
每一间别墅大概都有千多方尺，夸张哦！

一开门就是卧室，有一张垫高高的大床，有大大软软的枕头，
睡了梦一定很甜，叫都不愿醒。
旁边还有一张放了很多大大小小抱枕的阅书看电视的懒人沙发。

前走就是更衣室，各分男女，还有全身镜，设计得真周全。
更衣室小门前往梳洗室，也是设有男女分区，
梳洗室竟然还可以听音乐，哈哈，放大号准不会闷！

卧室与梳洗室都设有一道门，门一打开，就可以跳进水池了。
经典的是，水池旁还建有露天浴缸。
观看星星，在浴缸浸泡或在水池嬉水，可是人生一大享受啊！

这个天堂别墅特为情侣而设吧，偶一个人来，不就很怪？
话才说完，别墅里竟然站着一位阳光男孩。
上天对我太好了吧！天堂别墅加上阳光男孩？
看了已经很醉，很兴奋！

阳光男孩温柔地对偶说，他要陪我穿比基尼漫步沙滩、吹海风、坐树上秋千、
看日落、骑jetski、烛光晚餐、还有更大胆的 - 裸泳！
bikini？jetski？candle dinner？裸泳？太荒唐了吧，这些偶都没试过！
听毕，偶差一点儿晕了过去！

然后，阳光男孩带偶来到一个很热闹的地方，
整条街都是night club，很多美女在卖弄性感。
偶们喝了几杯，有点醉意。

阳光男孩心血来潮，提议去SPA。
好，去SPA！怎么这个SPA这样奇怪？冲很多次凉！
SPA服务生说，这就是精华！一共要洗七次！七次噎！

其后，竟然有四只手的怪物在帮偶按摩身体。
吓惊了一跳！奇妙，但是舒服。
阳光男孩真是体贴入微，想得真周到。
这个SPA一定很昂贵吧！

正当偶在享受着按摩时，画面突然出现一位大象美媚，
头上还插着一朵大红大紫的花。
大象美媚很可爱，很含羞。

大象美媚突掐住我的颈，对偶吼叫：“你，怎么跟我争我的男人！”
偶就快喘不过气了，对大象美媚叫：“你的，给回你！你的，给回你！”
偶，就这样扎醒！

现实上哪找这么美的梦啊！白日梦就有！
美梦，美梦，最终得醒！
不舍得清醒，那么就醉醒吧！

人言冷语

2011-11-04T15:23:00.002+08:00

反复做同一样事情就是一种习惯？不会错过？
那每天便便也是习惯咯？为什么还会有人便秘？

常挂在嘴边的那个人，虽在数不是，带有喜欢的成分？
老妈子常道垃圾佬的不是，难不成喜欢上他啦？

男人如果所说的是骗话，女人会怎么样？
骗话是假的吗？那就把骗话变真，再告诉女人吧！

一个人好过两个人？自由空间大一点，宽一点。
那就买张双人床，足够空间让你自由发挥。

两个人好过一个人？具有安全感，没那么孤单。
那就买张单人床挤在一块，绝对有安全感。

两个人在一起若太辛苦，分开会好一点？
我们分离了，只剩我，不用理你咯！

复杂的事怎么简单做？
把它拆成很多件简单的事，再一样一样做，简单做！

简单的事怎么会复杂做？
尽量兜一大圈子，浪费一些时间，加做一些无关的事，再把事完成。

Gili Trawangan@Lombok

2011-10-21T12:10:00.013+08:00

Go to Gili Trawangan, what could you do there?
Basically, nothing much. But there are few leisure activities you could consider.

First, wake up early in the morning to view the sunrise.
You gotta be patient to call the shy sun out to meet you :D

Second, rent a bicycle for a day (24 hours at Rp50,000) and cycling around the island.
You could just cycle from one end to another end, not easy if you pass by sandy area.

Third, you could do snorkeling. Else you could decide for a more challenging one - diving.
If you don't have a license, you could take the course and be learnt in few hours.

Fourth, on fine-weather day, you could see people surfing.
You could sit on the beach bar, enjoy your drink and the surfing.

Fifth, if you like to have tan skin, then enjoy the sunbathing.
While doing so, you could also enjoy the breeze whispering around you.

Sixth, you could go for a free movie by ordering beverage or food valued Rp25,000. The cinema is cool and unique whereby you could choose to lying down or sitting.

Seventh, you could just hang around beach bar for a happening night outing. Special nights of Monday, Wednesday and Friday offering special discounts.

The eighth, if you like sun so much, go for sunset viewing. It's beautiful with an unseen mountain and suddenly appears in front of your eyes while sun is slowly dropping into the sea.

The nineth, go for a beach walk and doing photography. Catching some splendid scenaries and the fun time of yours.

Me and my friend did the above for 3 days 2 nights. Of course there are more to be discovered like jungle trekking at Kodomo, islands hopping, meeting new friends, etc. Some people said Gili looks like Ibiza in Spain. I guess it's still far more to reach that standard. What I want in this trip was a leisure breakaway and it did quench my thirst for peace and fun.

Yesterday. Today. Tomorrow.

2011-10-20T11:19:00.004+08:00

What was Yesterday? Was it just a memory? Insignificant? Or influential?
Investment industry always highlights "Past record does not indicate future performance".
Does it apply on life too?

What is Today? Is it plan-able? Controllable? Or an honour?
As it determines tomorrow's outcome? As you live to see today?
Do we believe to see? Or see to believe? Where shall value, passion and faith be held?

What is Tomorrow? Is it about hope and luck?
Hope is a thing with feather? As if you're able to live to see?
How if tomorrow never comes? Where does future stand then?

If we work right for today, does everything carry a future?
How long does that future last?
You can't live in the past?
Are you living for today?
Or fighting for tomorrow?

Yesterday is a treasure. Today is a leisure. Tomorrow is a pleasure.

Good Laugh. Good Love. Good Life.

2011-10-11T11:33:00.002+08:00

什么能让你想起时会心一笑？
不管是何事何物何人，
对你有怎样的影响造化，
重要的是这笑是发于内心深处吧！
~ Good Laugh

什么样的爱最感人？最动人？
不管是亲情爱情友情，
情与爱可贵，可遇不可求，
重要的是付出与接受的爱来自诚与真！
~Good Love

什么样的人生是你向往的？追求的？
不管是酸甜或苦辣，
人生总会起起落落，
重要的是经历的过程是用心的！
~Good Life

蓝蓝的。。。

2011-10-10T12:33:00.003+08:00

天空蓝蓝的，
衣服蓝蓝的，
小车蓝蓝的，
同事蓝蓝的，
笑容蓝蓝的，
言语蓝蓝的，
心情蓝蓝的，
今天蓝蓝的。

蓝蓝的，懒懒的，就酱样。

The land of youth - Gili Trawangan

2011-09-28T14:03:00.022+08:00

If you wish to empty your brain, not wanting to have any thought;
If you wish to have a break , not wanting to be disturbed;
If you wish to have lots of fun, not wanting to be disappointed;
If you wish to paint the town red, not wanting to be sober;
If you wish to close to nature, not wanting surrounded by concrete jungle;
I have a marvelous place to recommend - the land of youth: Gili Trawangan, Lombok.

What's best about Gili Trawangan?
An island with friendliness, warm hospitality, smiling-faced people;
An island with only bicycle and cidomo (horse carriage);
An island with beautiful sunrise and sunset, accompanied by wind whispering;
An island with lots of pleasures: snorkeling, diving, sunbath and surfing;
An island with only island time and nowhere else for party fun...

Depart from Padang Bai Harbour, took about 1 hour plus by fast boat,
The first welcome from Gili Trawangan for your arrival:
Crystal clear blue sea, warmth sunshine and cheerful breeze;
Warm reception and greetings everywhere from island people;
You're immediately tranformed into island people after showering by these graceful touches,
Who else you want to be if you ain't one of them? Be down to earth and enjoy to the max...

[to be continued...]

不想

2011-09-15T11:42:00.003+08:00

不想记太多，因为记多脑缺氧；
不想学太多，因为学多会书呆；
不想知太多，因为知多未必好；
不想说太多，因为说多会错多；
不想理太多，因为理多会烦多；

不想不想多，自由在自己手中；
马来西亚日，带心身灵旅游去；
携朋齐飞扬，吃喝玩乐颠透透；
借此假日游，养神清静松一松；
游玩返回后，出击再另创新高。

动物不在森林了

2011-09-07T13:03:00.004+08:00

动物不在森林里了，
很多走到大马路上，
有猪、老虎、企鹅、等等。。。
猪没读过交通法规，不懂得交通指使牌；
老虎在马路猎食物，殃及很多无辜性命；
企鹅竟燃学人驾车，左右不分不打寻号；
人和车突陷入极为危险状况，
动物怎么会在大马路上了呢？

赶快，谁来打救人类？
要不，搞到人心惶惶！
以后，只有动物驾车，
然后，人类住进森林！

人生短暂

2011-09-06T09:31:00.004+08:00

人生短暂，光阴似箭，来匆匆，去也匆匆。
时间短暂，刚与月亮说再见道晚安，太阳已来向你请早安；
思念短暂，昨日尤新，今日又有另挂念；
聚会短暂，倾谈一番过后，得再期待下一次会面；
旅游短暂，自由一番后，又得回去规律的岗位；
快乐短暂，因为轻松容易过，瞬间又要面对现实的压力；
悲伤短暂，雨后或许会见到彩虹，快乐总会来拜访；

人生是短暂，但可以是充满活力、希望，乐趣的。

既然时间短暂、思念短暂、聚会短暂、旅游短暂、快乐短暂，

就把所有欢喜的短暂复新，不就可以过得久久咯！

然，不愿意的短暂，就让它更短暂地过吧！

开心是笑，不开心时更应该笑；开心也是一天，不开心也是一天，

笑着面对每一天，不就很好过？别和自己过不去！
今天的你，对着镜子的自己笑了吗？对着生活笑了吗？

小三

2011-08-26T15:34:00.007+08:00

三是奇数，必须是孤单的？独立的？那会？1，2最孤单，只有1 和2。而3后，还有不计其数的4、5、6、7、8。。。99、9999等等陪伴。

三人行必有我师焉。没有人精通所有，还是谦虚好过自满。学到老，活到老嘛！

三个臭皮匠赛过诸葛亮？事实在于一双筷子比三双筷子更易折短，不是吗？

三个人也可以打麻将，这个乐趣可比四人打麻将还要好玩？还要刺激？

三个圈圈，会是从大圈圈画到小圈圈，还是从小圈圈画到大圈圈？问小孩吧，他们的思路最纯真。

三个选择和两个选择，哪个简单？哪个复杂？或者没有选择最好？因为不得优柔寡断，只能勇往直前。

三个人去旅行，若没有三人房，有一个要独居一房兼独眠，会不会怕黑又怕鬼？人，还是怕寂寞多一点吧！

三有身份代表吗？小三也。不正是常被批评和指责错的那方吗？剪不断，理还乱。女人应该负全责？还是都是男人犯的错？

三个人怎样谈恋爱？注定一个要牺牲？谁都不让步的话，结果只有承受痛苦二字？或许，会做人的那位最快乐？

三字头开始，人生步入另一阶段，会不一样。有人说最精彩？有人说很苦闷？见仁见智吧？重点在于你怎么活，要怎么活，想怎么活。。。

喂，人？原来是酱？

2011-08-23T15:16:00.007+08:00

人不可貌像，可言之有理。
一个看似仁慈的，原来笑里藏刀；
一个看似凶恶的，原来温柔体贴；
一个看似聪慧的，原来虚有其表；
一个看似懵懂的，原来醒木非常；
喂，人？原来是酱？

茫茫人海中，不打不相识。
泛泛之交的，可变深厚之交；
难得两句的，却可无所不谈；
看似冷酷的，却是热情洋溢；
事不关己的，却可拔刀相助；
喂，人？原来是酱？

人心惶惶，是虎是鼠分不清楚。
一些狐假虎威的，一些智勇双全的；
一些临阵退缩的，一些临场不怯的；
一些按部就班的，一些千变万化的；
喂，人？原来是酱？

一样米养百种人。。。
一些粗心大意的，一些细寒问暖的；
一些狡猾谎言的，一些尽忠尽职的；
一些自私的要拥有一个人，一些不顾一切的去爱一个人；
一些用一辈子的时间恨一个人，一些用所有心思讨好一个人；
喂，人？原来是酱？

人生。。。好与坏；真与假；是与非；苦与乐；

需要经历各种滋味，才会懂得珍惜其价值吗？

喂，人，不容易啊！伟人，更谈何容易？

若人生仅此一回，是否可以随心所欲一些，

不需理会他人的眼光批评，任意地去追求你想要的？

部。落。格

2011-08-22T11:21:00.002+08:00

曾经风靡一时写部落格的风气，有点被遗弃兼遗忘。

或许人越长越大，生活越加忙碌，写部落的心情和情趣也渐渐少了？

又或者是力不从心，每天繁忙的生活已透不过气了，想要记载生活点滴的时间不如用来休息养神？

看回自己的部落格，原来曾经也拥有墨水和文采几分。现在，怎么差这么远啊？

写部落格的习惯和时间没了，生活的精彩更无从回味，可耐得了何？

仅靠那头脑做记忆，那岂不是很有限模糊？

嗯，我得学习哈里波特里的人物了。

用眼泪当内存磁盘，再找来一个特殊功能的脸盆当呈现软件。

那，任何时刻，自己或任何人想要追忆属于我的记忆，只要提取我一两滴泪，就可以有迹可寻？

这，岂不是简单许多？哈哈。。。

生活要记录的太多了吧，不是每一段人身经历你都想记得清清楚楚吧？那么，就选择性的记载吧！

怎么样的人生，怎么样的记忆，自己做主。时间、空间如是。

部落格给予的空间自由，我想重新拥有、体会。。。

随心凉话

2011-08-16T17:38:00.005+08:00

塞
头脑阻塞了，灵感不见了。听说神经质的人特别有鬼怪绝点。那，要绝顶的创意，也要变成那样子咯？

累
精神上的累比体力上的累更耗力，更折磨。人与事，累？情和爱，更累？这叫人在江湖身不由己吖？

爱
众说爱情是盲目的。谈恋爱的十个有九个不理智，面包比水重要？那，理智的人，别再吃面包了？

痴
对方有着什么魅力，可以让一个人这么痴心？是愚笨还是傻瓜？或许，当事人觉的值得就行了，那是他的人生，没有人可以干涉或决定他应该怎么过。

醒
如果可以少一点清醒，少一点理智，多一点勇气，人生是否可以跨一大步？会不会跌进沟渠里？

乐
没有定义的快乐，容易满足点吧。然，伤心是它的必须插曲么？没有伤心，你不会懂快乐的感觉？

生。人。生。

2011-07-21T16:39:00.003+08:00

从前的从前
望拥有全世界
充满抱负梦想
干劲冲力十足

现在的现在
世界拥有了吾
抱负亦变抱怨
勇气精力减半

以后的以后
净当世界过客
平凡但不平淡
简单知足常乐

伟大母亲大人。。。生人
吾在努力谱写。。。人生
一步。一个。脚印。

泪

2011-07-21T15:35:00.002+08:00

友人说:

如果还懂得流泪，那表示还有感觉，还想坚持。

如果是欲哭无泪，那表示心如止水，是该放手。

是这样的吗？

小王子

2011-07-08T22:17:00.003+08:00

小王子近来很喜欢说话，一讲就停不了。
很喜欢听小王子说话，因为他说话很动听。
小王子说话很深，道理也不简单吧，
我很努力去聆听和明白，最后还是放弃了。
小王子说没关系，他还是喜欢说给我听。
我说小王子啊，你的心是纯洁的，说话也是真心诚意的，
谁能不被你的说话给感动呢。
你，继续说；我，继续听。。。
不要嫌弃我的智慧就行^^

You're just adorable!

2011-02-25T17:20:00.003+08:00

Your bubbling, so cute, so charming
Once heard, giggling;
Your smiling, so pure, so adorable
Once saw, heart melting;
I just couldn't afford to miss it even a day!

When I saw you, I couldn't leave you alone
When I left you, I could have heart broken
Couldn't help but you're just too adorable!
Holding my hand, giving you all my love
You just make me falling in love with you again and again...

Fifth Day 22 May 2010

Safari day! Our driver, Herry (another recommended good honest driver) would be our driver and guide today. Exploring the kingdom of animals! Going to see white tiger. People said you’re lucky if you’re able to see white tiger.

On the journey to Bogor, it’s a terrible massive jam. In fact, weekend will be jam like this. Everyone is heading to Safari Park. We’re forced to stop unmoved for an hour before continuing our journey as the road heard to be one-way. Crazy.

Finally, we’re arrived our destination - Safari. It’s cool to be here. I thought we’re going to sit inside a car with a layer of net protecting us before exploring the land. No no no…it’s on your own vehicle and you’re get set to explore the land by yourself. Incredible experience! Love it to the max.

After that, we enjoyed cowboy show, had a round of fun. Followed by Globe of Death, in fact it’s a long time hardly get to watch motoring in the globe show. Watching till my head also dizzy. Then, we had tiger show, elephant show.

Started with stomach upset few times, which I didn’t realize it was diarrhea. At night, I knew it’s abnormal to go to toilet so many times and when the outputs were all waters.

Tonight, we stayed in Papaho hotel, Rp200,000. A very modern deco hotel, unfortunately, it’s not so clean especially its floor. We had to wear sandals in order to walk as the floor was too dusty and sticky to feel.

After settled tonight’s stay, we went out to hunt medicine to replace my dehydration and our dinner as well. Finally, we found our long-missed avocado juice with chocolate. Due to my upset stomach, I just tried a gulp. Yes, real pure and nice juice. This AA shop, if not mistaken, is owned by a Chinese as the food sold here are more to Chinese food.

After dinner, on the way back to hotel, a bit insane, we bought all the way till pirated MP3 and DVD would also attract our attention. Rp6,000 per piece. Incredible, right? MP3 for Indonesian songs. Learnt a song there, C.I.N.T.A by D’bagintas. DVD, clear version with multilingual subtitles.

Watching Sharukh Khan movie on TV with Indo Audio. Weird but still understandable. Tracy dear was so tired, watching till dozed off. I continued with my visits to toilet while watching Sharukh Khan...

With. Without.

2010-07-18T21:12:00.000+08:00

Sometimes, it's good to have someone with;
Sometimes, it's good to have someone without.

Sometimes, it's good to have something with;
Sometimes, it's good to have something without.

Sometimes, it's good to choose with or without;
Sometimes, it's good to have only with or without.

Sometimes, it's simpler to leave without than to leave with;
Sometimes, it's easier to live without than to live with.

All in all, born without; live without; leave without;
and the soul is free without...

3 8 Sunday

2010-07-18T13:28:00.007+08:00

It's Sunday. So, what's best for Sunday? Wake up early in the Sunday morning is never easy. It's the only weekend which you could just lying lazily on bed till you feel content. Well, well, well, Sunday morning sunshine and fresh air shouldn't be missed. I went walking leisurely with hong kia in Bukit Jalil path for an hour.

Then, hunting for breakfast? hoho, we had great programme ahead. We went to SRJK (C) Yuk Chai for their charity activities. See what we found there? So called "baked bao" from Sungai Buloh, long queue woh and it's recommended by TV before! hehehe...hong kia and I were captured by someone's camera. Didn't know why, I guess we must be the 'strangers' found here as most of the visitors were moms, dads and kids :D If you see us on newspaper, don't forget to inform us :P

What's more? It's very happening here actually. Flooded with foods, games, veges, fruits, handcrafts for you to grab. Ah uh, we found something great - FREE health diagnosis from Taipei TCM Medical Centre. I have been suffering for neck pain for quite some times and seeking for cures around. Wouldn't it be a good chance to try on free? As, anything free for me now is good coz I had spent too much on my neck problem. Here we go for the free diagnosis :D

haha...believe or not of what the sensei said is still a question mark. Too much to hear and believe, while the trusted one and cure my pain one, yet to be found! It's a day for parenting outing, haha, me and hong kia just joined for the fun. 3 8 Sunday lo!

Fourth Day 21 May 2010

We decided to go back to Orange Homes today as we wanted to go Bogor, Safari Park the next day. What were we going to do today? Simple. To accomplish our mission – Shop till drop!

Ajang came and fetch our luggage back to Orange Homes, and dropped us at Jalan Dago. We’re just able to finish few outlets there at the day before. Still there were more outlets to go. I had to be more careful with the stuffs I was going to buy. Yes, my luggage could hardly fit in what I had shopped so far. Regreted that I had brought 7-day clothes over; regreted that I brought too small a luggage; regreted that I only purchased 15kg luggage; regreted that when you see something so appealing you had to forgo…regreted ne…

Well, didn’t know if I didn’t sleep well for the past three days, got fever today. A bit energyless, but still the spirit to shop was stronger. Play safe, we went to K-convenient store to buy panadols. Swallowed the pills, within half an hour, I was on my spirit to shop again.

Came to evening, it’s the sign of traffic jam and crowded everywhere that we saw. Yes, it’s Friday. People from Jakarta started flooding Bandung. Taking cab at this hour? Guess your heart palpitation will beat whenever the meter jumps. So, we decided to take dinner first before going back to Orange Homes.

Back to Orange Homes at around 10pm, finding out all necessary information from the helpful owner, we’re able to talk to two Brazilian hot ladies who he recommended. Finally, they’re agreed to share a car to go to Bogor at Rp850,000 tomorrow. Yippie! Safari, here I come!

人生。舞台

2010-07-16T14:01:00.003+08:00

人生舞台，角色扮演的任务不简单。每一个人都拥有自己的舞台，让自己尽最大的努力把各种角色扮演好。要多精彩，就可以多精彩；要多炫，就多炫！

认为还没有找到属于自己舞台的呢？也很简单，只要自己愿意、欢喜，不属于自己的舞台也可以卸一角色。在那舞台上，你还是自由的。你可以只做个一点都不出色的陪衬；你也可以认真地争取一个重要的角色，少了你，就好像欠缺一些生趣。

有时候，借别人的舞台来发挥自己也不错。至少在你觉得想要卸下那一个角色的时候，或许可以毫无顾虑，潇洒的离开。或许。。。在那当下，你非常不舍。是太过瘾亦太过习惯？

你，找到自己的人生。舞台了吗？

Third Day 20 May 2010

We took off our shopping spree. We’re on our journey for sightseeing today. Unbelievable coz shopping was too difficult to resist! Rented a car at Rp450,000 (inclusive of petrol and driver) for 12 hours. Entry tickets including driver will be on own cost. Ajang was our driver. A very young guy with big eyes, nice, helpful and honest. We had our destinations to go: Tangkuban Perahu, strawberry farm, tea plantation, Hot Spring and Kampung Daun.

Well, it took almost 1.5 hours to reach Tangkuban Perahu. Before went down exploring the place, Ajang had given us advices and precautions we needed to take. This is the guide anyone would like to have, isn’t it? Worth the money and yet get a peace of mind.

Tangkuban Perahu, a very cooling place with active and inactive volcanoes to visit. We visited the inactive one as the active one will require another extra payment. Strong sulphur smell derived from the volcano. Whilst, looking at the volcano at height of 1830m, splendid! A day of photography! Hanging around the place and slowly took our own sweet time to shoot whatever we wanted. Tried the tauhu bakar with cili padi (of course forgo the chili, how could we stand for the hotness?) and nasi bakar with peanut sauce, yummy!

Tangkuban Perahu to me is just like a place in Cameron. Cooling with lots of tea plantation farms. We went to strawberry farm but the rain was just pouring down, couldn’t enjoy self-plucking fun. We proceeded to our next destination – hot spring!

Hot spring was another surprise to us. Never know that a hot spring can be so amazing. It’s just like Sunway Lagoon. Besides hot water theme park, more activities available here, including go-kart, paint ball, etc. It’s a family outing place, a team building place and of course a place for relaxing your mind, soul & body.

At 230pm, we hadn’t taken lunch. Crazy. We’re now heading to Kampung Daun for a nice lunching! Ajang said good place with good food, sure have to pay more. We’re well-prepared to foot the higher bill this round. As told by Ajang, we requested an upper seating arrangement. Wow wow wow…Kampung Daun, now I knew what’s Kampung Daun all about. Reveal to you another world behind the wall. Amazing place with exclusive kampong style deco. When you want to place order, just knock on the kantong.

To our surprise, the food price is actually not so expensive compared to our expectation. For a meal for two with Nasi Komplit Ala Sunda, Tea, Selasih and poffertjer, we paid only Rp130,000, reasonable and very fulfilling!

Poffertjer (kuih bola belanda with choco cheese filling)

Back to Bandung, not yet to guesthouse, Ajang drove us to Jeans Centre and then Jalan Riau. Haha…sorry but killed another few hundred thousand bills for Indonesian Rupiah again. The money we bought was not sufficient for the rest of the days. So, we had another option: just try, choose, buy and swipe! So easy, what to worry :P COOL! What we needed to worry was our luggage. How to fix in all stuffs we had bought so far.

8 Po 3rd Anniversary Trip (2)

Second Day 19 May 2010

Woke up at 7pm. Ready for indo breakfast, quite a different style. What came next? Yes, the hotel promised to drive us to our second day guesthouse, Dago Guest House (Rp125,000, booked from http://www.dagoguesthouse.com) and then dropped us at Jalan Dago for our crazy shopping day :D The boy told us to be extra careful, not to get cheated before leaving us alone in one of the factory outlets in Jalan Dago. Asked us to take blue bird cab and don’t take Angkotan at night.

So, our first stop was Level. Took our lunch there and we’re set to go shopping wildly. First factory outlet, I had gotten a piece of my favourite fabric dress at a very reasonable price and yet with premium quality. The day continued with the second, third, fourth… factory outlets. Every outlet we entered, sure would have something out. Fabulous!

Pure Mango Juice and Strawberry Juice, you can't afford to miss it!

Gosh, today was a fairy tale! I had never tried shopping this crazy. Tried all the way and bought all the way. Together I got 12 items. Spent approximately Rp1.5million. Worth the value! All branded stuffs, reasonable prices, premium qualities and free of hassle to bargain as all items were fixed with price tags. Buy it if you like, don’t have to worry about cheating. How wonderful!

Well, on the way back, it was raining. To hurry up, we caught on a Angkotan. Our guesthouse was located at Jalan Bukit Dago Selatan. A bit complicated to find the place especially night time, we didn’t aware of our location and the direction. Feeling bit threatened when we entered a dark narrow street. Thanks God, we’re able to find the guesthouse. The Angkotan asked for Rp40,000 was really over. We ended up paid him Rp30,000.

Angkotan is a mini-van convenient for a one- area public transportation. Normally passenger pay Rp1000 – Rp4000 to the driver, depends on distance. Yet, we paid Rp30,000, you can see how angry we were as being cheated. Anyway, we’re safe. Just learn the lesson. Be smart next time.

8 Po 3rd Anniversary Trip (1)

2010-06-10T21:11:00.006+08:00

Woo hoo…time’s really flying. You couldn’t believe it’s sliding off just in a glance. So do our Pa Po Anniversary Trip entering the 3rd this year.

This time, we did it differently. Upgrading and to be more adventurous, we decided to go abroad to Bandung and Jakarta for a week! Yea…long week holidays, can’t wait! Was very relaxed this time coz we knew what’s our mission lying ahea. Yes, Shopping Shopping and…Shopping! Never have had this mood before as most of time flying off to unwind the stresses; while this time, feeling extremely relaxed without anything in head except spending hours and money for buying and buying more!

First Day 18 May 2010
Flew off to Bandung at 330pm. Reached the Husein Sastranegara Airport at 435pm (one hour latter than Malaysia). First impression about airport, you couldn’t imagine it if you never been here. Much more simpler than Bali. Two lines of check-in point with two officers each row. Next to the check-in point, it’s the place to unload your luggage. Can you imagine how small the airport is? Nevertheless, we’re get set to explore the City of Bandung tonight!

Couldn’t see any sign from Orange Homes (our first night stay, Rp240,000, booked from AsiaRooms.com) who supposed to fetch us. So, we took a cab heading to our first night stay. Driver pronounced “o-ran-ge home”…hahaha! Later when we spoke to person in charge, only we found out that I, the blur queen did not leave them with our flight details. What a shame!

Well, leaving our luggage in the hotel, we had our first destination – Paris Van Java, the biggest and newest shopping mall in Bandung! The shopping mall is just like any other shopping mall except one which is very unique, the alfresco area which is full of cafés and restaurants, each with their very own deco, undeniable it’s a very good ambience for dining, gathering and dating! What’s more we got here? Yes, the thumb thumb bear mini ice-cream. It was yummy!

Having a thought to change our plan from sightseeing to shopping plan, we called it a night, so as we were able to have full energy to shop till drop tomorrow :D

Start Believing...

2010-02-25T10:55:00.004+08:00

Start believing...

100 times of boxing hand-gestures in the morning make a good heart palpitation of the day

3-minute good laugh in the morning makes a happy mood to start the day ahead

stomach is real allergy to cow milk and upset easily these days, so, be more careful in food selection

a good walk in the evening and whisper in the green make a whole day relaxed and energised, practise more and more

put on face mask once every 3 days for a shining radiant skin, if you don't want to see ageing signs on your beauty face

spare your time, spend and talk to your parents, money just cant afford the precious greatest love they are showering us all time

money is not easy come but easy go, so grab whenever you could as time waits for nobody

life sometimes could be as bored as you could think of, so make it as colourful as you could

listening to the music and humming along could motivate a cheerful mood, spend more little time for this costless pastime

whatever happened, it must be good, keep it in mind all time and remind yourself

life's too short to hesitate, just do it when you feel you need to or want to

when you should let go, don't turn back, move forward for better and better

listen to your heart, follow the flow, let the nature takes its own course

blogging is a good way to see your own living style and make a review and improvement

tiger said the past was over, the horse is galloping into new and for the better and the best

so, i start believing all these and pratising daily...to make life better :D why don't you?

味觉知觉

2010-02-24T16:55:00.003+08:00

你说很久没吃卤面了
加上那浓浓的醋香味
真是嗅味觉一大享受
等到肚子咕噜地叫着
热呼呼的卤面端上桌
吹一吹慢慢送进嘴里
不小心卤面烫到舌头
口含着卤面飙着眼泪
朋友们看住问你可好
你忍着舌痛直点着头
卤面的确又香又美味
可伤了舌头味觉没了
再吃什么山珍海味的
都不会见得有味道了
晚餐享用的煎蛋白饭
以往还直赞简单美味
今晚不但失去了味觉
看似连知觉也不见了。。。

烟花

2010-02-23T16:06:00.002+08:00

你抬头满足地欣赏着
夜空里纷放的烟花
好大朵的烟花
朵朵绚丽又闪耀
一朵接一朵
你希望夜空里缤纷的烟花
可以继续绽放
每一次的绽放
犹如阿拉丁赐你新的愿望
心底里充满希望
每一次的绽放

犹如把你抱在怀里

给你温暖

再舒服不过了。。。

烟花

霎那光彩

绽放后消失九霄云外

人生

亦是如此？

不然

各种滋味

甜酸苦辣

任你追忆一辈子

重于值与不值。。。

快乐。不快乐。

2010-02-22T21:12:00.002+08:00

老伯伯给了你两颗种子
一颗叫做快乐
另一颗叫做不快乐
两颗小种子要你每天勤灌溉
你可以自由选择给哪颗种子施肥浇水
哪颗种子就会比较茁壮成长
除非无法掌控的自然因素
否则两颗种子的长成将由你决定

你把两颗种子握在手里
很兴奋自己得到如此神奇的种子
抬头想向老伯伯道谢
他人已不在那儿了
再往手掌心的种子看
Opps，你忘了哪颗种子打哪颗种子了

不管三七二十一
在好奇心的驱使下
你把两颗种子都种在土壤里
每天细心施肥浇水
种子们一天天地长大
你终于看到分别了
一颗种子长出绿叶且带有缤纷的花蕊
另一颗却只长出粗拙的绿叶，一点都不显眼

你决定了
以后每一天都给长有缤纷花蕊的那一颗
浇多点水和施多点肥料
日子一天天的过
你越来越不开心，懊恼非常
原来缤纷花蕊那一颗树的成长
招来了不少奇虫怪蚁
再看看只长出粗拙绿叶的那一颗
现在却长着独特的绿叶形状
非常迷人，可是且枯黄了

明白了
原来不快乐的样子长得炫眼
要你自投罗网
慢慢变得急燥忧郁失去方向
快乐的样子固然一点都不起眼
可是细心灌溉呵护
要你心愉自足
得到令你难以猜测的惊奇

懂了
不快乐是自找麻烦
快乐是要细心品尝
快乐。不。快乐。
自己握在手掌心。。。

8 po 8 Kong Reunion Dinner

2010-02-06T21:01:00.002+08:00

8 po 8 kong reunion dinner has successfully organised on 5 Feb 2010. It's a once-a-year event for everyone to gather together, catch up and cheer up. Booked for 14 persons but ended up with 8. A lot of faces didn't turn up though we still have to carry on. Everyone is busy with different priorities nowadays. Life status changes. Most of the friends were still stuck in the office, trying to finish all necessary tasks in order to celebrate the upcoming Chinese New Year peacefully. Who want to receive call from boss during the holidays? Gosh!

The cuisine were tasty yummy, of course! Sorry for those who couldn't make it. Well, even though my stomach was upset since yesterday, who bothered, eat first and think later, haha. What we ordered was more than what we could devour. Still, we didn't waste the food, all were inside our stomach ;D

Sitting inside the restaurant, we awared that we didn't not belong to the youngster group anymore as we couldn't stand for the crowd and the noises! Remembering the old days, we're once like them, cheer up as loud as we can like nobody's business. Still, I want to emphasise that we are all still young at heart always! Peng You Jia You!

Han Yan suggested to keep ten cent a day. So that, after a year, we're able to book a private room, having own privilege and fully enjoy ourselves in our own world while enjoying good good food :D What say you ne?

Wishing all a very very happy, healthy and blossom new year! A toast and Cheers!

MILK ALLERGY?!

2010-01-14T23:57:00.003+08:00

Gosh, I have been suffering for stomachache few days already. The pains come and gone. I was so scared that it was due to appendix as I'm ready for my upcoming holidays this Sunday. Well, taken that worry in mind, I went and saw doctor.

"So long didn't see you?"
"Oh, doctor. If I didn't see you for long, that means I'm good. Now I have to see you, that means I'm in trouble!"

After the diagnosis.

"Ah moi, you're suffering for lactose intolerance. In other words, MILK Allergy. You shouldn't take COW milk"
"How come? I'm so grown up already. I saw my pa takes tat XLene so many years already and so good. So, I also start to take Xlene coz my legs had those rusty sounds when I squated down."
"Oh no, not that way. Most asian are resistant to cow milk. You know how many Xlene you need to take in order to get enough calcium of the day? You can opt for other milk like soymilk or rice milk."
"Gosh. Now I see that."

No more moo moooo....COW stuff in my stomach in future, including yogurt. Doctor suggests to take more seafood, green leaf vege, tofu....haha, all are quite my favourite, easier way too. Life's great! A jor...stomach clamps now :s

Babe Naughty!

2010-01-07T21:29:00.004+08:00

I must have treated doggie badly in my previous life. During my trip to Kuantan last weekend, I was attacked by my friend's doggy, "Babe"! In the midst of talking to my friend in the room, Babe suddenly rushed in and attacked me. I was so shocked till falling down onto the floor, my foot sprained and got all the bruises on my thighs and legs. What a day?!

Was Babe actually playing with me or he really disliked me :'( According to my friend, her Babe never attacked nor bite people. I was the first Babe had such a reaction. Gosh, Babe must have hated me so much. Attacked by Babe twice in a day, you know how much I got scared of him? Babe is naughty and evil even he's cute in fact. Oh no, Babe!

Babe Naughty! Punishment for Babe: No more "mum mum" or "kai kai" for him :P That is Babe's favourite words which create excitement to him even he's sleeping, he'll wake up immediately. Looking at Babe, he is just like a small kid, needs to be pampered like anyone else in the world! Love him, Hate him!

Farewell to 2009！

2010-01-01T09:23:00.006+08:00

Last day in 2009? How you passed the day? Me, an "old people" actually didn't really feel want to get crowded in the heavy traffic. Initial thought was wanted to go back home straightaway after work, have a nice dinner, watching a nice movie and go to bed early for a beauty sleep. I guess that's a kind of content as well. Ended up, irresistible pursue by friends, I went out gathering with them for this last day in 2009.

The meaningful highlight of this gathering i guess was the review of 2009. When asked to share, I asked them, should I review it monthly? They all got shocked as I was so serious about it. Just kidding to them :D

My Year of 2009 on the following:-

Family:

A year full of ups and downs. Still, we were able to cope with the obstacles one by one. That's the unity of a family. Appreciate much for bearing with my moody emotion. Humbly apology for my rudeness, if any. Wishing papa, mama, didi and mei mei, a more peaceful, happier and healthier year ahead! Love you much!

Friends:

Friends are indeed an important asset for me especially I stay outside. These are a group of people who touched my life, who gave lots of sparks and surprises to my life, always. Cheerish the friendship and grateful for the great accompanions when I was in need. Let's organise more outings in the coming year. Lap you all!

Career:

The first half of the year was a depressing downtime. The second half was full of opportunities and surprises. Worth my courage to explore these new opportunities! Thanks to those who gave me chance to change and show my capabilities. Aim to climb higher and achieve more for the coming years! Hoping for more prosperous years ahead!

Love:

Well, always failed in this subject, always met with Mr Wrong. Had been falling in love with myself for the past one year. Someone had taught me great lesson in this subject. Learning how to love myself more and perhaps how to love my future partner better :D Need to be smart and have more courageous and lucks in this area. God, send me an angel!

Farewell to 2009. Let go those unpleasure experiences, moving forward and start anew. Facing my life honestly, living to the best! With or without is secondary. Believing 2010 is going to be different, a year full of blessings and excitements! Cheer it up!

Pei Zhi, Jia You! Peng You, Jia You!

幸福地哭了。。。

2009-12-25T23:12:00.006+08:00

三十而立，这句话是真的。三十还没来临时，那一个时候的焦虑无法形容。好害怕在岁数上加上三字的改变，从此与老字号挂钩。

后来发现（还好发现得早哦！），三十的力量是闪烁的，可以犹如太阳般灿烂。这一年的走来，学习好多，成长很多。原来，自己的潜能已进入另一个阶段了（虽然我还是blur blur的，容易上当的），观看事情的思维模式，处理方式都不一样了。

今天，最后一次说三十岁了，明天还要再多加一个一字。今天，是圣诞节哦！上天派了一位圣诞老人。。。哦，不是，是一位圣诞美女和许多的天使，让我幸福地，感动地结束三十。

话说这位圣诞美女约了blur queen，我，在Sri Rampai吃饭，顺道聊些投资的选择。我也闲着，圣诞节也没有什么特别节目（人老了，没力气与年轻人争热闹了），就一口答应了。

去载了圣诞美女就前往一家她说好好吃的餐厅去。去到这家叫做San Francisco的餐厅就找位子坐嘛。圣诞美女就走前几步与服务员谈了几句。吖？十个人的预订座位？这下，我呆在那儿。。。怎么会十个人呢？真的是一下子反应不过来。哦。。。原来圣诞美女静悄悄地为我安排了一个庆生聚会。哇，我还是愣在那儿的，心里是感动得说不出口。圣诞节嘛，大多数都有各自的活动，更何况大多数的朋友都回家啦，与爱人庆祝圣诞节啦，好好儿在家里悠闲一番啦，怎么会有时间来陪我这个孤单的人？

大伙儿陆陆续续地到达餐厅。看到他们，我心里是无比的感动与开心。还有一位我的偶像也捧场哦！叮！就是DJ 峰！他人不是很舒服，都这么赏脸，真的感动不及，难以启齿！啊。。。这一份最佳礼物是我收到这么多礼物里最贵的一份，无价！

简单的一个聚会，一个晚餐，一份心意，无限的祝福，让我无限的感动，我都心领了。朋友，这一路有你们的陪伴，我真的活得很幸福，很幸福，幸福地哭了。朋友，加油！谢谢你们！肉麻也要讲一句，我很爱你们哦！因为有你们和家人的扶持，我的人生如此幸福！

谢谢Tracy, Yan, Ting, Steven，Feng Zai, Chen Yi, Syuen, Alvin 和 Fun, 还有拿相机的明仔:D 不忘其他虽然没有出席的朋友和提早与我庆生的朋友，我也有感受到你们满满的祝福。大家，谢啦！

三十一的开始，我把应该放下的，放下了，整装待发，我开始另一个新旅程碑，更积极地面对我的人生。夸张一点，我想说蜕变！等着瞧吧，我一定会活得更精彩！愿大家每天都幸福，安康！

Morning Kick Off

2009-12-17T14:23:00.000+08:00

Oh, morning again? You are forced to wake up yourself from sweet dream? Freshen up and ready for work? Golden time for another new day ahead to earn a living?

Emm...the world isn't so dull. I personally come to realise lately what I love to do in the morning. Enjoying a fresh hot beverage to fill up the empty stomach and sitting in front of TV, no news of course, but a ten-minute comedy show will be sufficient to do a good laugh for a sunshine day kick off! Try it. Am pratising it everyday now. It really makes a whole brighter day ahead :D CHEERS!

4 telur, 1 roti telur

2009-11-12T23:16:00.003+08:00

Three Singapore colleagues came to Malaysia for a week. They went to a mamak cafe nearby office for breakfast every morning. This morning, two of the colleagues wanted 2 boiled eggs each. Since two of them couldn't speak Bahasa Melayu, the order had to be made by another colleague who is Malaysian but speaking very limited Bahasa Melayu. The colleague who made the order wanted a "roti telur", so she ordered "4 telur, 1 roti telur".

When the boy served them the breakfast, all of them were puzzled looking at the folding roti. Guess what was served? Ding! The fella served them with 1 giant roti telur with 4 eggs inside!

Hope this real life story bright up your day! I was laughing till dropping my tears! How come the fella being so creative taking such an order and able to come out with this genius roti for the customer and daring to serve without second thought. wahahaha....

What the hell?!

2009-06-22T22:16:00.004+08:00

Ever lent people money, and there's no way you get back your money? What do you good when you are being so kind, so considerable? How much does this good heart worth?

Would this borrower ever feel shame? Would this borrower ever take the initiative to call you up telling you when he/she's going to pay you back?

NEVER! They'll only make you feeling SUCK! The borrower never bother how's your life gonna be. They won't pay you even they have money. Instead, they pay for other thing for their better life.

So, what the hell being so good?! You give the TRUST, people take it as SHIT! Start to be evil today? NO Money NO Talk?! World of Realistic? World of Materialistic? World of Cruel? It's world of PISSED OFF!

Soh Po Anniversary (Part 2)

2009-06-16T21:11:00.006+08:00

Final Destination ~ Johor Bahru

Our next destination was Johor Bahru. It's been years i didn't visit the place. How has it become? I hardly can imagine.

Well, felt real great pleasure to have Steven as our guide (Ting couldn't join us coz she needed to take care the little prince - Feng Zai :D) as we didn't plan anything at all to be there except got the hotel to be booked.

Eat, Eat, Eat and EAT!
Haha...no need GPS to tour around JB as we had Steven as our walking GPS, no more recalculating and recalculating...ho ho ho!

First, we got to eat the homemade dumpling by Steven's mom. The most important ingredient used is the spicy shrimp! Ho Chak where you can't get it anywhere else :P Don't be jealous :P We're just lucky enough

What we had next? yo yo...it's well-known ABC topping with chocolate! Heard about it from Steven for so many years and finally i got to taste it! Tauhu Bakar, big and juicy, different from KL one woh, u must get it tried!

Tracy dear and I were so full now. Haha...guess what we did the next minute? Steven took us exercise in Istana Johor. One of the places where he's dating with Ting last time oh! It's also one of the hot spots for the just-married to take their photos here! We saw three couples shooting photos there, so, what do you think? A lot of people jogging there and we appeared to be the odd one, absolutely, as we're not on our sport attires but with sandals :D Well, if you've completed one big circle in the Istana, that means you have done your visit to the zoo as well coz it's just next door! Cool, isn't it?

And then, we sat down on the grass, enjoying the opposite view of Singapore while the wind kept blowing our faces. Just nice! Okay, good exercise for the day. Now, we still had something special which is highly recommended but not yet put into our stomach. Ding...Tampoi Laksa and Si Ham! It's as great as described by Steven. So, you must try if you happened to be in JB.

Well, now we truly full till we needed more walks. So, we're heading to Danga Bay. Couldn't recall how the old bay appeared to me but I believe the new renovated one now is more happening. We had our leisure walk and sat down when we got tired. Not so windy, though. So? We had our beers to cool down :D

By ten, we're all exhausted. Time to call it a day! It's one great day exploring places in JB and of course the FOOD! It's F1 racing day in Monaco, I didn't even able to watch the whole race as my eyes were too tired. Less than 20 mins, I was asleep till the morning!

The next morning, last before we left JB, after few rounds of finding, we at last got to devour the tasty Kuih Teow Kia! Yeh, one satisfatory soh po anniversary trip!

Arigatoo ne
Thanks for the super warm hospitality from Steven and Ting when we're around JB. It's not as simple as you're exploring Malacca. JB is BIG, everything is BIG! And not forgetting my great travel accompanion - Tracy dear, to make this trip so wonderful, enjoyable and memorable! Lap u x1000000000...n

Soh Po Anniversary (Part 1)

2009-06-09T16:13:00.008+08:00

It's Soh Po's 1st Anniversary. Last year we chose Cherating, Kuantan. This year we went to something historical - Malacca & everything is big - Johor Bahru.

First Desination ~ Malacca

Accommodation ~ Discovery
First, we must find a place to stay in for the night. Nevertheless, it seemed like all hotels that we chose were fully-booked. Surprisingly, we found "Discovery Cafe" at Jalan Bunga Raya. No harm to walk in and have a look how discovery it is since we're so tired searching around.

Real discovery! We'd to walk pass by a narrow corridor to reach the new wing of the guesthouse as all rooms in the old wing were occupied. Found out it's merely a two-week newly renovated before our arrival. Everything is brand new and clean. We're the first to launch "open ceremony" for the room. Happily, we booked the room (fan + air-cond) for two for RM5o. Great deal!
Check out www.discovery-malacca.com if you want to know more about the guesthouse.

Eating all the way~
Time to eat all the way out. We ate almost every two hours. From Jalan Tun Sri Lanang Hainanese Chicken Rice Ball to Makko Nyonya Food - Pong Teh, Tai Bak to Bukit Cina Cendol & Rojak to Capitol Satay Celup...an amazing eating trip...so delicious...yummy yummy!

The next morning we continued our journey of eatings. Started our rich breakfast with all sorts of Nyonya kuih to Donald & Lily Nyonya Laksa and again tried out the famous Sun May Hiong Satay House - the Hainanese pork satay even we're so so full. And that we're so satisfied heading our next destination to Johor Bahru :D

Eyes on Malacca VS Eyes on Malaysia
We used GPS to assist us all the way exploring Malacca. Eye on Malaysia, see so near, yet so far. We spent nearly an hour to reach the destination. Whilst surprisingly, we reached nowhere but Eyes On Malacca! Haha...it's a wonderland for kids. We just realised that we're so carelessly chose Eyes on Malacca instead of Eyes on Malaysia in GPS. Since we're here, of course we'd pay it a visit and take some photos as it's facing Malacca River, not bad at all.

Next, we really found the Eyes on Malaysia. As it's too early to take the ride of ferris wheel, we're having a fun section of all jumping shooting at the seaside. Okay, it's sunset time, also the best time to ride the Eyes on Malaysia. Alright it's truly a terrifying experience for me as I'm so fear of height! Tracy dear kept divert my focus, but I kept changing my position in the big wheel as I got nervous when there's nothing behind me! Though, it's awesome!

When Eyes on Malaysia located in Titiwangsa, we didn't go for the ride. Now, we went all the way to Malacca to ride the Eyes...hahaha!

Jonker Street ~ Night Market
A truly surprise to me. Never know that it's gonna to be so happening and fresh with all sort of interesting cute stuffs. Irresistible! A wow-wow to me! While shopping around, we're eating around too. I think both of us spent at least RM150 just in the Jonker Street. First time in my life seeing hawkers run their business using pc in the night market...sounds cool, isn't it?

Oh Malacca...such a lovely historical place to be...haven't finished our exploring yet. Certainly will come again next time.

Simple...?

2009-05-29T10:33:00.001+08:00

I saw a child aged around one year-old plus. She was so cute and sweet with a pink dress and a hat on. Looking at her enjoying the leisurely walk without care around the temple, I told myself why couldn’t I think and act the way she is – just be simple!

What does simple mean?
Does it mean you don’t have to think? The least not too much, though.
Does it mean that you follow your first instinct and just do it?
Would simple make the simple way for you?
Would simple make you look like a fool?
What's the standard of being simple?
How to be simple in simple way?

oh...Simple simple as it goes...
I'm still learning to be simple in all aspects of life :D

Thirst for Change again...

2009-05-21T17:09:00.002+08:00

Time’s flying extremely fast.
Mom said she felt three days passed like an hour.
It’s second quarter now.
Another ten more days, enter the third quarter.

What have I done so far?
How far have I achieved?
What's my hesitation?
Have I tidied up my mind?
What can I do next to better my life?
When would I feel I'm enjoying a stable life?

I’m thirst for a change again.
For anytime,
I need fresh air
to rejuvenate, revitalize and rejoice myself.

Happy Family Outing @ Sepang Gold Coast

2009-05-21T16:22:00.010+08:00

We postponed our family outing from Mother’s day to last Sunday. Don't have to get crowded with people and also pay extra charge for food. Well, got an idea from my friend saying that Sepang Gold Coast which is located at Bagan Lalang beach is a nice place to hanging around. So, I proposed to my family members and they all agreed.

This’s our first family outing, meaning that besides eating, we spent time for leisure walk and talk. Hardly to get all members in especially my brother needs to go Japan twice a year. So, last Sunday was a perfect time. 3 in 1 celebrations: Mother’s day, mom’s birthday and my brother’s birthday too :D

We chose a steamboat restaurant for our dinner. In fact, no much choices there except for steamboat and the other one which seems like serving ala carte meals. We did order side dishes like satay and fried squids. The steamboat was fine except the service. It appeared to be like no captain there besides few staffs working the routines and running the business. Everything was mixed with a little bit of mess. On top of that, there’s special entertainer for your dinner – the mosquitoes bites. So, do request for mosquito fighter.

No doubt, Sepang Gold Coast is a nice scenery spot even the development of the resorts is still under progress. Upon the completion of the construction, all the units of the sea villas designed to resemble the shape of a palm tree called Golden Palm Villas. It's going to be an amazing view if you view it from the top! This place is windy with nice ambience for relaxing, and not forgetting a nice spot to view sunset. Know what, the lowest price for a small resort is easily cost you half a million.

谁才是主人？

2009-04-22T11:32:00.002+08:00

有一些人没搞清楚状况，总是喜欢拉着人走，他说东就东，说西就西。不管别人怎么个想法，全都得听他的。你只要稍微有些反抗，他就借着持有的权力下马威，一切都得顺他的意。这，还得了？错的，也照跟？不愿意的，也照做？他，当起你生命的主人！

又有一些人却对自己的状况很懵懂，总是被人牵着走。别人说东，他就东；说西，他就西。他根本没有意愿想要做，他知道他有权力说不，可是他就是一味儿的跟着做，把反抗的声音给埋没。而后，自个儿在埋怨，叹气。这，有用吗？你，让别人当你生命的主人！

要当自己生命的主人，有那么难吗？尤其，你是个懂得分辨是非的人。只要自己觉得是对的，问心无愧，就可以勇往直前，有什么好萎缩的？搞清楚，谁才是主人，再决定去向，别让人牵着你的鼻子走。我，就是看不惯这样的作风！改变吧，这世界还有“我主王朝”的把戏吗？过期了！人权，知道多一点吧！

Vroom Vroom Vroom! Alive with Adrenalin!

2009-04-06T10:28:00.011+08:00

Have you been to the Formula One? If you haven't, make sure you go and feel it at least once in a lifetime.

This's my second time. I love the race since I first enjoyed it in year 2007. So lucky, this year I got courtesy tickets from Tracy's Friend, Tey. It was one day before the grand prix. Time was so spontaneous, I had no program yet on Sunday. Diamond Grand Stand Ticket! How would you afford to miss? So...left everything behind, F1, here I come!

Alvin, Fun & me took the coach provided by Petronas Tower, KLCC at 1130am. Well, drive yourself to Sepang circuit could be miserable :D Despite the jam, you gotta familiar with the route, so that you won't get lost in the midst of finding car park.

We were in Sepang circuit around 1250pm. After the guide briefed us on how to get back to the coach after race (with Alvin and Fun around, never have to worry :P), we were walking about 1.5km to reach the entry gate. Of couse, along the walking, you gotta see a real F1 car displayed at mall area, a lot of hot pretty F1 gals for you to capture picture, stalls selling F1 merchandise, free gift to give away by quest, etc. So crowded, so much funs and happenings!

Pretty hot gals! What a good bodyshape that everyone dreams of!

At last, we found our diamond grand stand block N2.06. Right in front of us was the trophy presentation platform, what the best view you could ever get! Hurray! Grand stand is really meant a lot. Coz it has a lot of goings on to capture, handsome things to see, excitement to feel, cheers to cheerish ... wow... fantastic one!

Before 2009 Formula 1 Petronas Malaysia Grand Prix (56 laps), we got to enjoy GP2 Asia Second Race (20 laps) and Formula BMW Pacific Second Race (5 laps). Of all, F1 was the most excited one! The sounds of vroom vroom and the speed could just stimulate the level of your adrenalin :D That's how this year's slogan being derived? COOL, I'd say! Keep alive with adrenalin, you feel your life worth more :P
Vroom vroom vroom...Ready to go!

Well, the whole racing was full of excitement until the rain pouring down. It's raining like cats and dogs. The racing forced to stop after few cars skipped. My brother called me up, asked me to prepare for home. There won't be any race continue coz it's raining. I scolded him for spoilting my mood. When it has stopped till 7pm, agreed by all drivers, the race's being called off. The end result taken upon the last lap at 33. What? That made the whole thing to the END?

In fact, Fun and I were in the washroom when they made such an announcement. So, we're surprised when everyone was moving out while we're walking back to the grand stand! Argghh...The Champion! The award presentation! We rushed all the way back but it's so crowded. We missed it! Couldn't believe it! The washroom matter!

Feeling like watching halfway show, no ending show. My heart felt a sense of lost. Whatever it is, the end was still an end. Moreover, I have enjoyed the racing. Thanks for the great race! You guys are amazing! BRAVO!

The Champion, Jensen Button

熄灯一小时

2009-03-28T21:30:00.000+08:00

熄灯一小时，一个具有意义的全世界性活动。到底，有多少人响应这个活动呢？有多少人知道这个活动的存在？有多少人体会到它的意义？

这一小时，我与家人在新村度过。在这之前，偶老早和妈子述说了。她还真热诚，告知她身边的一班安娣们，大家也一起来保护地球，暖化地球。一小时，有什么难？

拿，一件伟大的事的完成是靠整个机体的合作吧！电台、电视台和媒介们都积极的推广大众对熄灯一小时的意识。事实，有多小人放在心上，积极参与？

身在新村的偶，就观看了村子里的人对这一小时的反应。各自还不是你有你关灯，我有我开灯的作风（心想：傻的，有谁真正会去关灯？你不关灯，难不成有人会来捉你？熄灯一小时后会有什么大改变？）大家持着各自的心态，一点都不团结一致。

偶说就从一个小家庭开始吧。因为偶有把知道的告诉家人，所以他们得知了，便做出决定要熄灯一小时保护地球。妈子提早准备晚餐，大家都在八时三十分前，搞定所有的事务。然后妈子又转告安娣们，又多了几户人家响应这个活动。

偶说哦，村长若醒目并且也关心实事，呼吁全村子的人一起参与，那不久有整个村子都熄灯一小时的现象吗？村长们若也有与其他村长有联系，来个几个村子熄灯一小时，不就有更多人参与了吗？

咳，谈何容易。偶，是一个人！一个人的力量，有几大？地球虽是大家的，可里边住的人，心各有所异啊！

心比身还要痛！

2009-03-16T23:04:00.004+08:00

今天心很痛，也很伤！亲爱的九二被“吻”得残不忍睹，非常地“伤”，我真的不懂得如何去面对！。自己本身就无伤大哀，小扭了一些胫骨（后来才发觉这里那里都痛），算是不幸中之大幸吧，人没事就好，可是心会很难过很难过。。。

防不胜防，你小心翼翼，其他的马路使用者并不一定这么想。至少那一些自私的马路使用者就少了这一份耐性。这么多年，在发生的每一次交通意外时，小车都是处于不动态！偏偏就是招惹一些鲁莽马路使用者的“青睐”。为什么呢？难不成现在开始我也应该学习鲁莽驾驶方式？

请问停在红绿灯前面可以驾几快？请问塞车时的速度应该是多少？请问你的车的状况不是很好时，是否应该继续在马路上行驶？是否应该送去车厂维修？请问为什么被撞者的情绪会如此的火爆？会按捺不住在那儿臭骂一顿？请问一声“对不起”真的可以足够代表鲁莽驾驶行为的歉意？请问是否搞等到出人命时才来后悔反省？请问钱真的可以解决一切的疤痕伤痛？请问一条人命值多少钱？请问什么时候开始所有的马路使用者真的都小心驾驶，体会到生命不会重来的道理？请问报纸上、电视上、广播台等等所有的小心驾驶呼吁都是废话？请问还有有多少的请问才会唤起大家的同理心，珍惜生命的宝贵？

今天的我，很激动！我的长篇大论不会帮到其他马路使用者，让大家在马路上都可以很安全。因为一个人的力量太渺小了，需要的是大家的力量！请大家告诉大家“关心生命，请小心驾驶”！

很失望，第一次感到无比地心痛！此刻，心比身还要痛！

叮！为什么会这样呢？

2009-03-03T21:29:00.005+08:00

好奇怪哦！明明昨晚的车油格亮了警告讯号，今早开车时，尽然上了一格，油格警告讯号也消失了。为什么会这样？偶在那儿愣了一会儿，偶昨天没去加油啊！最近常常失魂，头脑记忆衰退，再仔细想想，很肯定，偶没去加油，也没有人驾偶的车！

行驶了大约几分钟，啊，油格警告讯号亮了！咦，恢复正常了？终于心安！真三八，车油多了，不应该高兴吗？哪有人像偶这样？失常失常！

叮！告诉偶，为什么油格警告讯号会这样呢？真是问题多多，都是以前在班上少问老师问题咯！叮叮叮！

心痛啊喂！

2009-03-03T21:04:00.003+08:00

心痛死了，才新买的Reebok波鞋，只陪我去了一趟越南河内六日之旅，今早发现不翼而飞了！那个偷鞋臭王八，至今家里已经不见了两双Reebok和一双Adidas，三双就已经价值好几百元了！家里鞋架也不是置放很靠近大门口，偷鞋臭王八非常的眼尖，而且还真有一手！可别让我逮到你这个偷鞋臭王八，必定给你好看又好受！真是咽不下这一口气！死王八！臭王八！啊！！！

赶路？不赶路？

2009-02-25T17:13:00.000+08:00

赶路人，没有时间，抄捷径，务必要到达目的地。过程不重要，最重要的是结果，中心点只有目的地一个，而且要快。

不赶路人，时间上有少许空间，不在乎路途的遥远，可以沿路欣赏风景，最终也可以到达目的地。随性、轻松、自然、享受整个过程。

赶路人遇上不赶路人，意见差异。赶路人随不赶路人，必须放缓脚步；不赶路人随赶路人，必须加速，赶上赶路人的脚步。谁也不让谁，最终各走各路，各有精彩。

赶路人或许不会懂得不赶路人的幸福。只是迟了一点到达目的地，可有很大的差别？不赶路人或许不会懂得赶路人的要求，赶路人早已享受过不赶路人的幸福。

你，赶路吗？

新年馨年

2009-02-09T22:43:00.003+08:00

哗！今天真是筹热闹，一大早起身，做什么？嘻嘻，去参加一对好友的婚姻注册。忘了今天是元宵节，华人情人节，大好日子，有情人总成眷属，总会有很多新人选择今天拉埋天窗！还好朋友排第三号，八时多就完成宣誓仪式，要不可就要车水马龙，人山人海咯！谢天谢地，也恭喜所有的佳偶们与子携手，白头偕老，幸福快乐！

嗯。。。就这样华人新年就告一段落。十五天来，偶去参观东禅寺最少有五趟。还好不会纳闷，因为偶总有地方没来得及参观。刚好有朋自远方来，偶又托他们的福，一一给探索了。今年的麦积山介绍和琉璃展还蛮值的观看。

来到仁嘉隆的朋友，偶有少许抱歉，对于好吃的介绍，偶真是略懂一二而已，而且是偶熟悉和较常光顾的。仁嘉隆好吃的不就是炒福建面、板面、红酒面线，肉骨茶。。。都得依个人口味而定吧！向来苏东的偶，搞得有一天来参观东禅寺的朋友们一晚之内光顾同一个挡口两次，真是不好意思！

套句老话“新年新希望！”偶也在今年定了新目标。又是冲刺的时刻了，偶每一天都在冲刺哦！新年馨年，希望每一年每一天每一分每一秒（哇，这样详细？）都是新的，温馨的！朋友，加油！

Like that also can?

2009-02-04T22:43:00.004+08:00

Back from hometown today. Long time don't chit chat with Hong Kia. Ask her for dinner after work. As usual we go to frequent-visit vegetarian restaurant. Chit chat chit chat until so syok. Suddenly I felt my toe was bitten by something sharp. Wow cow, guess what? I thought it was a cat BUT it was a mouse! A big big mouse bite my toe! What a sign? Like that also can?!

Can't find the real spot of where the mouse has bitten. Could see little scratches on my toe. Bitten by mosquito, by doggy, is considered normal. What about a mouse? Hoho...from ratatouille? Real miracle! The mouse must be too hungry until treated my toes as Finger Licking Good Kentucky Fried Chicken! Go go go you this hungry mouse, your time was over, it's now the year of Golden OX year! Yo Yo!

MOOve it! MOOve it!

2009-02-04T22:24:00.003+08:00

Yo...For so long, I didn’t write any thing on my blogspot. Emm…too busy? Too many life stories to write? Too tired? I think no mood to write is the main cause. When got mood to write, no labtop around, when got labtop around, the brain stuck and couldn’t recall. Well…so many to accomplish in life, yet so little the time. Time is real flying at a glance!

The rat year gone, the ox year comes, whatever unhappy, unaccomplished, go go go. Start a new with this brand new bright GU year! Hehe...still left few more days to go before Chinese New Year really calls off. Take this opportunity with my deepest sincerity wish all my dear friends (who i'm not able to meet up during CNY) "A Happier & Greater Niu Year!" Best wishes for all your brand new goals! Get set…GO...al! MOOve it! MOOve it!

鞋来鞋去

2008-12-18T11:29:00.007+08:00

13。12。2008

承蒙杰菲力和慧勤的关照，多了“十分红”的演唱会入场券，我才有机会去感染很久没有接触的现场LIVE气氛，让自己觉得有活力、年轻起来。演唱会之前下了一场倾盆大雨，整个草场堆积了水。哈哈。。。观看演唱会的心情？心是热的、澎湃的；脚呢？是冷的、恶心的，甚至起鸡皮疙瘩。为什么呢？因为那泥水渗透你的鞋内，你的十个脚趾就浸在污泥浊水内，你说胃不胃？一场免费的演唱会，换几钟头酸到痹的双脚和一双美鞋，值得吗？还好啦，有周华健和哈林，肯定值回票价几倍酱咯！

15。12。2008

我绝对需要一双好鞋来支撑我的双脚、十个脚趾和脚底板。一双好鞋可以带我走很长、很远的路，做很多很多的事。皇天不负苦心人，叮叮叮！我终于猎到了一双可可达尔鳄鱼鞋，而且价值实惠，美丽可观，RM55酱就搞定，比起哈奇巴比狗鞋便宜很多又好看很多酱，长期来讲是值得投资的！还有高跟鞋、运动鞋、走街串巷鞋。。。酱多要买，真是头痛！女人，一双岂够止渴咧？男人，忍着点咯！

Penang Food Hunt 2008

2008-12-09T11:54:00.011+08:00

Departure

6th December 2008: Departed early in the morning from Taiping, Hong Kia’s house at 9am to Penang. Gals were really ‘mo’ one lor. Driving all the way smoothly until we reached Penang Bridge, so crowded. We were going to be late, and we were! We were the last team to register at 11am sharp, when the organizer had started the briefing.

ANG ANG Everywhere...
Went into the hall, the hall was ANG ANG coz the theme was RED, so all participants wore reds. Wow…very HONG ar! The briefing was half way through, I didn’t make any sense out of it! I thought we were the only team who didn’t know how this Food Hunt games to be played. So blur, especially with two blur and two not so blur persons as team members :P The organizer explained what were the Leg 1, Leg 2, challenges, treasures, and tulips. Well, tulips? It’s flower or what? Hahaha…it’s the guide for road direction!

Flag Off, challenges came ahead...

Alright, we were asked to go into the car and wait for the Hunt to be flagged off. Now, we got Leg 1: Google all the way, which requested us to visit four given eating places (google maps were given) to get the stamps and submit at Cititel (advised to complete within 2 hours), choose one to enjoy the food and take one creative photos of us; Challenge 2 to take 3 creative shots at Penang heritage and develop the photos and submit at the finishing point. Challenge 1 to be collected at Digi Centre at Gurney Plaza; 4 Treasures to be answered, bought the necessary items, and submit at the finishing point too.

Didn't know HOW but BUSY...
BIG HEAD now! What and how should we get started with all these Leg, Challenge and Treasures? We didn’t familiar with Penang roads. Hong kia was our only hope. Without proper planning, we opted to go to the first eating place, Tze Zu Lin Vegetarian Restaurant. Hahaha…looking at the Google maps, nobody was able to tell how to reach the place. Esther, Hong kia, cracking their head with no idea; me? Don’t bother me with that, please! Yan jie jie, no time to read maps lar, she was responsible to drive, drive and drive, where got extra hands and eyes leh?

Busy all the way! One kept driving and asking the rest how and where? Go straight? Left? Right? One was reading the maps and trying to make sense out of the pieces! One was calling friends and asking the directions; while the other one trying to solve the treasures and sms-ing friends to crack the head together. Ho ho ho…could you imagine the picture of 4 cha bos in the car doing different things at one time?

Invisible Honeyman
Oh, not-to-be-missed, there’s one invisible honeyman got busy with us. US? Not really us. It’s to SHE – Esther, his dear. Who? Who leh? Ma si from Ta Sam Pa geh Da La Pa, Jeffrey Tan lor! Kept busy calling his dear every one hour (more than 5 times during the whole hunt, I supposed) until we all called it a stop! He uh, ka ka cau cau nia. We know lar, missing his dear so much when she’s not around! So, appreciate more when she’s beside you ya…:P

Jialat! No eyes see...
At last, went to Gurney and got the Challenge 1 sheet (answer 5 Malay kuih with correct Malay names and submit at New World Food Court). Then, we were heading to the eating place. We reached there finally. Yes, we did it BUT with 1 hour plus effort! Haha…The place was so near, yet so far for us! Jiatlat lor! First place took 1 hour plus, how about the rest? No eyes see! Eat first, the stomach was making noise by now.

With very quick motion, we finished the food and heading to the rest of the eating places to obtain the stamps. All were nearby, performance after eating really different lor. We finished the task at last within 15 mins and rushed to submit Challenge 1 at Cititel and to the next destination, submit Leg 1 at New World Food Court and time for Leg 2.

Fool around @ Food around...
Jor…a sea of red shirt people hanging around New World Food Court already. So many reached there before us! Fast, we gotta be fast to finish Leg 2, so that we could start Leg 3. What we got for Leg 2? 10 questions to be answered, the answers were around the food courts at this area. Another BIG BIG head for four of us. Why ne? Coz the teasers didn’t make sense to us. We didn’t understand what the question want at all. Really sweating lor this time …

Passed half an hour, still had no clue out of 10 questions. Really no patience for that already. Aiya…we got the vouchers for food here. So, the best we could do is SIT and EAT, the questions, NO BOTHER lar, cin cai filled in, cin cai submit lar. Enjoy some food here: pancake (still considered good), popiah (so watery with the fillings geh?), chestnut water (so sweet!), some sushi (to be eaten in the car later)…not an ideal place for good food, this was what we thought.

After eating, we gave our answers - Bak Zhang lar, Nice Day lar, Japanese Eel lar, all in BUT we knew none was correct, just for the sake of submission :P Oh yea…we had earned 10 bonus point for making a nice APOM. Esther was our representative. The APOM made by Esther, of course, YUMMY! We finished it all :P

Kan Cheong lor...
By 4pm, we started our Leg 3. Hopefully, we were able to do this more rights than wrongs. We had Spice Trail for Leg 3 with tulips given. What we needed to do was follow the tulips to reach different destinations and answer all 20 questions accordingly. The answers were on the signboard of the shops around. This one real Qi Kit lor. Love this part the most! Even we needed to squeeze our brain, but it’s fun when you were able to make sense and get the answer. BRAVO!

All the way fun, got BIG head, got the answers (right or wrong, didn’t know lar :P). Till we were heading to Bukit Gedung, we encountered our problem with direction coz the gate as per tulips shown was CLOSED. Closed, BIG stuff to us, meaning we started to get LOST. We were not local! How to make the rest? Making few rounds around, wasting some time, making calls to the organizer, finally we got the place. This was crazy! We felt annoyed, of course. The organizer should know it by first hand! Kept our temperature low, we continued our trails to find answers for Leg 3.

When everyone got exhausted...
It was around 6.45pm, the sky was getting dark. Now, we had 4 more questions to go. Exhausted was what I could tell at that moment. We needed to complete all questions and submit Leg 3, Challenge 2 and Treasures at finishing point, Ford Cornwallis. All of us, opted for “GIVE UP lor”, too tired to find way now, let’s heading to the finishing point by now. Gotta follow the tulips still coz we didn’t know how to get to Ford Cornwallis. We did stop and try to answer the remaining fours, but brain cells were dead by now.

By 7pm, we reached Ford Cornwallis, with our answer sheets, our bought items, no photos being developed, we submitted whatever we had, whatever we could. Where’s the tent? We couldn’t see. The surroundings were dark. We made fool of ourselves again, made a BIG round with tired feet, and finally we found the organizer under the tree, which was so insignificant to see. Ghost knew they were there! Another frustrating point, for sure! Really heating up temperature of us. How many mini mistakes had the organizer done? Aiyo…Please review at their post-mortem if they hope to get a more successful and well-response Food Hunt for next year!

What we got...
Penang Food Hunt 2008, we didn’t came for prize. We came for experience. We came for fun. While things prepared by the organizer may make sense to most Penangkia, how about the NOT LOCAL?

Penang Food Hunt 2008, our first treasure hunt activity. We understand by now, before kicking off for anything else, we need a proper planning, so you’ll be able to finish the tasks and challenges given in time.

Penang Food Hunt 2008, four blurred gals joined the games. Without getting clear the whole picture of it, the games flagged off and came to the end so soon. Four gals were hunting the FOOL instead for the FOOD.

Penang Food Hunt 2008, came to the end, yet it’s just the beginning of the story for the gals for other hunts :P BRAVO! Gals!

嫦娥在笑

2008-12-02T22:12:00.004+08:00

你昨晚有看到嫦娥在笑吗？错过了，无所谓，我还来得及把她的笑给留下，让你，你，你，大家也一起来微笑。笑笑没烦恼！笑尽天下古今愁！说：“CHEERS”！

来一杯清水

2008-11-22T21:31:00.005+08:00

咖啡很香，我却不懂得欣赏，亦极少机会会去喝咖啡，因为承受不起它的副作用-- 心跳加速、少许晕眩、上厕所次数频密。。。久而久之，还得承受钙质的流失，导致骨骼疏松症。

故此，茶就变成是我最常点的饮料。咦，有奶茶替代咖啡也不赖嘛。当然，咖啡和奶茶的香味各有异，那得视个人喜好而定，欣赏的程度肯定不同。

但，奶茶也有它的副作用，系于点喝它的人吧。最近觉得身体对奶茶不是很承受得起，饮用过后，心脏没有力、呼吸有点困难、整个人有心无力。。。这老化迹象没有这样快？这样早吧？

咳。。。管得着吗？身体是自己的，若承当不起就别勉强。换个角度来看，没有了咖啡，没有了奶茶，人生未必就从此无趣。

事实若是如此，好好接受，换个口味不就得了。偶尔，来一杯清水，我想，也是大快人心，舒畅无比。人生如清水般清澈，简单许多！还是清水好！

结果呢？

2008-11-18T21:22:00.002+08:00

我不听话咯，跑去公园跑步，因为真的很想好好儿流一身汗。结果呢？，结果脚又拉筋，感觉紧绷，走路时都会撤到，很不舒服。睡觉时，平放都觉得很不舒服。哇靠！

从上一次马拉松受伤到现在，都已经休息了好一阵子了，不敢让脚操之过劳。结果呢？旧患还是重犯。要怎么做，脚才会恢复像以前一样，任我怎么走，怎么跑都可以？莫非是老化迹象？神啊，救救我啊！

What's real? What's unreal?

2008-11-13T13:23:00.003+08:00

Wow...got a lot of blur stories to share. I think my brain is not functioned properly for recognisation, verification, recall, bla bla bla...

Story 1:
I have spent 15 mins to start a car engine. Oh, GOSH! The story is the car is not mine. It's my brother's. So? He's a car-lover. The little Kancil has been modified fully into Mira. Sounds COOL, right? Well, that's not the big deal but the car has 3 keys, applied differently for door, bonnet and starter. So, I have applied the wrong key, trying to start the engine. Well, frustrated enough, I had to call my brother up to ask, for three times coz I failed to follow his words. He's of course in the dreaming mode lor, and got irritating with my stupid question, me either. So, with his unawaken face, he went down from Condo and started the engine for me. Uh, this's damn crazy!

Story 2:
I woke up in the midnight to go to the toilet. Just walked into the room and blanketed myself, i felt wanna go to peep again. Alright, this is a bit insane. While i was peeping, i was thinking "did I ever go to toilet before this second time?"....arggghhh...I can't differenciate if i were in the dreaming or i really performed the action! Gone mad lor, me!

Story 3:
A friend called me while I'm still in the dream. Asking me about the cure for dengue. I have answered all his questions and fall into sleep again. While I woke up later, I was wondering if my friend called me this morning?

Argghhh...what's real, what is unreal? What's wrong, especially myself? ho ho ho...that drives me crazy!

失魂鬼，穿破头！

搬来新地方两个月，还没来得及好好收拾，整理。趁今天心情好，烫了两个小时的衣服，可以穿上整个月吧，不用烦（我最怕烦的啦）。接着，整理衣服、日常用品、书本和纸张（一大堆）。。。

好啦，搞了大半天，终于收拾完毕。要收的收，要丢的丢，房间总算像房间样了。到厨房去，正要把垃圾给绑好再拿出去丢，就在站起来的那一刻，忘了头上的哪一个水喉，哎呀！痛死我了！那一瞬间，我痛到站不起来，说不出话。

回到房间，开始幻想若像做戏一样，碰撞后没事还可以站起来走动，然后，才发现流血，而后晕倒。想都怕！本以为普通的撞伤，不痛就好。收拾当儿觉得头有阵阵痛，就用手稍微触摸，按摩一下。怎么手指感觉水水的？看一下，原来是血！哇，赶紧冲向镜前检察，真的有血啊。还好不是大量那一种，要不我即刻会当场晕过去。还好，无伤大雅。可能下回你见到我时，脑袋会有些迟钝或失忆咯，莫见怪 :P

头，这一刻还是痛的 ;-( 真是失魂鬼，头也给穿破！

做，不做？想，不想？

2008-11-09T22:02:00.002+08:00

有些事情，做了，会让你心满意足；
有些事情，做了，会让你后悔莫及。
有些事情，重复做，会让你熟能生巧；
有些事情，重复做，会让你渐生厌恶。
有些事情，不做，会让你心安理得；
有些事情，不做，会让你悔不当初。
做，好过没做？
没做，好过做？

有些事情，想了，会让你甜蜜十分；
有些事情，想了，会让你心痛不已。
有些事情，重复想，会让你释怀放下；
有些事情，重复想，会让你走火入魔。
有些事情，不想，会让你心开意解；
有些事情，不想，会让你挂念十分。
想，好过不想？
不想，好过想？

做，还是不做？想，还是不想？

不解的为什么。。。

2008-10-22T11:17:00.002+08:00

什么世界来的？
这个世界注定有不公平的存在。公道自在人心，有理说不清。我有太多却又不能理解的为什么。别人做的都是对的（就算是无理的），而自己做的在别人眼里就是无理或是你应该做的。别人的眼光和看法，不去理会就没事了？或许应该默默的接受？哑子吃黄莲，有苦自己往肚吞？难道就别无选择了吗？

没有答案的为什么。。。
为什么邻居的空地不停放车，要放到我家的门口？难道我家的空地没什么作用，就是留给你专用的？

为什么自己家的空地停放车，还要遭人刮花？放一辆刮一辆？

为什么家人朋友的车必须都停放在屋内，搞得空间都没有，而屋外的空地必须让给无赖的邻居停放他们的车？

为什么你对一个人好的时候，他不会记得。但，只要你做坏一件事，不用你提，他永远都记得。

为什么别人找你帮他解决问题，好心没好报，他还要赖你，甚至说你多管闲事？

为什么欠你钱的人过得比你还要逍遥？你跟他讨钱还要想尽办法说好话？

为什么人总是喜欢听假话？不好听话是比较吃耳，可是是真心为你好，他说你别有居心？

为什么单身不正常？为什么你还没有拍托？为什么你眼角这么高？为什么他不错，你不考虑？

为什么天气晴朗，却会无缘无故的心情低落？

为什么晚上会失眠，就算已经筋疲力尽了？

为什么有这么多的为什么？可以不要这些烦死人的为什么吗？

不属于地球
这个世界就是这么的丑陋，人性就是这么的恶劣？真的受不了的话，或许应该离开地球，到别的行星生活。是荒想，是无稽之谈，是为了郁闷的心情找一个空间。。。

雨后邂逅

2008-10-21T19:41:00.002+08:00

见不到，会很想念
见到，会很开心
想见，不一定会出现
大多数，不会如愿以偿

可以做的，只有等待
你给的，属于惊喜
习惯了，这样就好
不敢奢求

今天，见到了
喜出望外的惊喜
原来，我要的不多
只要你偶尔的记得我

不用多说
你我的默契属于雨后
懂了，不会难过
因，很心满意足了。。。

Sad lo me…

2008-09-19T11:41:00.002+08:00

I was in the midst of going back home before next appointment. My car was stopped in front of traffic light. It’s red. Just that few second, the car behind me banged into my back. I was out of shock, of course. What the hell was this fella behind me doing?

Immediately I went down from car and looked at my car. I truly showed my impatience to the fella. What on earth were you doing in the afternoon? You were Indian. You didn’t fasting. Did you out of your mind? Did you fall into sleep? See, what the damn thing had you done? How come there’s cow driving on the road!!! So unbelievable!

The story now -- one of the sensors was damaged. The bumper was loosening. The bonnet cover was caved in. There’re scratches spoilt the paint. Serious or not, these would take two days for the whole course of repairing. Sad lo me…to see my lou gong zai injured this way!

Thing that frustrated me the most was the carelessness of that fella. For how many times my old car and now, this new one, have been hit by careless and idiotic drivers. All the times, I was in static condition. The idiot came and just hit. Or, it's me who don't know how to drive? I should drive airplane next time. I think sky is safer!

Mata, please keep those cows and pigs in the place they entitled for. Don’t ever let them drive on the road, it causes danger to other road users! Pleazzzz la wei…

My fire is still burning right now!

夜光会

2008-09-15T19:43:00.000+08:00

中秋节，夜光会，是乎好久好久没举办了。今年心血来潮，妈妈问要不要搞一个夜光会，我说好，老弟也说好。妈妈开心到像嫦娥飞上天（是夸张一点点）。就这样，妈妈召集了三户人家，一家准备一两样，就这样轻而一举，两桌面的食物，有nasi lemak、红豆糖水、炸鸡翼、云吞和虾、玉粟糕（妈妈的拿手糕点，好久没尝过了）、豆腐卜、蛋糕、燕菜等等，当然还少不了压轴重点食物—月饼！一个中秋晚会就这样形成了。

一边享用着食物，一边嘻哈谈笑，还一边忙着点灯笼，还不忘了偶尔抬头望一望远挂夜空那一轮皎洁的明月，过足中秋瘾，十分享受！不用花很多钱，只是一个很简单的聚会，就产生了无限的欢乐。快乐就是这样简单，幸福就是这样简单。你的中秋又怎样过？

我想说“别吝啬你的爱”
中秋节，月圆人团圆。游子可能没办法特地赶回家乡过中秋，无所谓，只要记得打通电话给家里的老人家，呈上你暖暖地祝福，我想，他们就已经很开心了。老人家，老了怕孤独，也比较会耍脾气哦（最会口不对心，虽说无所谓，其实是很在意的）! 甭管他们说不用不用，站在他们的立场想想，他们其实最需要的是什么？对了，你的关爱，就像小时候他们怎样无微不至地关爱你一样。不管是那一个季节，记得你的小小关爱，可以减少他们对你的思念哦！就别吝啬你的爱。

Shape Run '08

2008-08-25T12:05:00.004+08:00

ho ho oh, 24 August 2008, one big fine day! Shape Run '08 organised by Shape and Men's Health magazines, took part by 2,000 participants. This is my first time involved in public organised event. Walkathon, marathon, never have the experience before, how to call it a life? haha...so not-to-be-missed this time. Moreover, the Shape run came with an attractive goodies bag worth RM300 which has become the reason of the participation for some.

Our gang, some took part in 10km run (to challenge our endurance and you may stand a chance to win fabulous prizes, one metal could have done the good job :D) and some 5km fun run (by accidentally registered). Hong kia was the funniest case, accidentally registered into male 10km category, able to fix the situation at the very last minute, before flag off.

The most impressive one would be the prenancy woman I saw in the path. I think she's in her 5-6 months' prenancy, and she was able to complete the whole 10km run. Amazing, isn't it? Feel the difference you could have in life? Then, be creative but be yourself first of all.

Yeh, all of us were able to reach the finishing line even not among the winners, but I felt great coz the whole process of running was enjoyable. I even experienced the cramped leg, but thanks to one funny uncle participant, because of his encouragement, I was able to finish the whole run within the time I have set initially. I couldn't walk properly now but I believe to be recovered fully in two three days soon coz had sought the treatment from doctor this morning. What an unforgettable experience!

岁月流逝的那一瞬间
我，是跟着向前不懈？
亦或是还在原地兜转？

沙巴亚庇逍遥游（六）

2008-06-16T17:11:00.005+08:00

激流划艇（Water Rafting）
早起的鸟儿有虫吃。今天不是要吃虫，而是有紧张又刺激的巴达斯河(Padas River)激流划艇挑战在前。六点钟，大伙儿便起身准备。用了早餐后，我们便到楼下的咖啡馆外等候Exotic Adventure的人员来接载我们去保佛(Beaufort)火车站。

等着等着，我们又开始照相啦，看似大伙儿还在睡眠状态。而后，负责人，George来到，可车子还没到。他简短地帮我们介绍关于激流划艇。还说，我们这一组人女孩子占多，最好待会儿的另一组人，男生多一点，那么，划起艇来会比较平衡。多数的划艇经验，男生会比较不喜欢和太多女生一组，因为女生较弱，划起艇来会较吃力。当真？我们可有那样差？好一阵子，车子才姗姗来迟。

保佛火车站
大约两个钟头，我们到达保佛火车站。坐火车还得用上整两个小时才会到上游处激流划艇的起点 – 班吉(Pangi)。所以，大伙儿上了小号，顺便换上适合的激流服装，最好是深色衣服（因激流的水是黄色的），以免待会儿换个措手不及。火车站那儿，负责人给我们带来消息说另一组男生居多，我们可真好运气，有靓仔看，可以把两元推开一边咯（刚刚在车内说好的，女的全让给他，男的当然是我们的咯:P说笑的啦！）。

十点半，古老陈旧的火车，里面竟还安装有风扇，准时出发。那是当地人唯一的火车，每天就只有两趟，所以时间可真要抓紧。唉呀，火车内可是纳闷，装着的风扇是摆美的，一动都不会动，让我空欢喜一场。坐在我对面，脚仔旁边的两位小弟弟可真好看，真像母亲，眼睛大大的。大弟弟可真是乖巧，小弟弟呢，我可真想要打他屁股，很坏蛋，哥哥什么东西都要得让他，还把他母亲包包里的东西全都翻乱了。

脚仔的另一边坐了一位卖零食和汽水的婆婆。由于她的东西置放在走廊中间，脚仔不时都忙着帮她拿上拿下，好让其他乘客走过。然后，瞧到婆婆篮子里有一把扇子，我们动了主意，婆婆看懂了我们的眼神，识趣地把扇子借给我们。啊。。。真凉快，羡死旁人！坐着坐着，摇摇晃晃地，我又进入睡眠状态，那头儿可是跟着火车摇左晃右的。一会儿，我醒了，却看到脚仔也在那儿摇左晃右，好好笑哦！

中途在拉约(Rayoh)，我们下车放下我们的背包。哈，还得签下一份生死状。人都来了，还有临时退阵这一回事吗？Die die must go, die die must do 咯！而后，我们就续程前往班吉。

抵达班吉，George和其他负责人给我们准备了西瓜和矿泉水。真正与另一组男生碰面，原来对方是一班看似社会的新鲜人，年轻又有活力的可爱男生。哈，我们也感觉年轻了。吃了喝了，我们穿上救生衣，还得带上安全头盔。George帮我们检查了各人的头盔和救生衣是否妥当。看到鸿仔的一身装扮，还真搞笑，头部像极了苍蝇大使。然后，George帮我们分成八人一组。我、萍妹和脚仔，一对洋人夫妇和另外一组的其中三个男生一组；鸿仔，阿慧、妹妹和两元则和另四位男生同组。

George给我们解说安全措施，包括如何握桨柄、如何划艇、橡皮艇翻倒如何自救、掉进河里如何自救、如何将掉进河里的伙伴救上艇等等。要我们不管任何时候都要挂着笑容，即使你人在河里。讲解完毕，激流划艇挑战正式开始。

每艘橡皮艇有两名艇夫（负责照顾和引领全船人），艇的两旁各自有三个人负责划艇，艇中间坐了两位艇客（负责给划艇的人推动力）。我和脚仔是艇客，萍妹则是其中一位划艇员。One，two，one，two。。。我们的橡皮艇勇往直前。

哈哈，原本以为我的任务非常简单又不需费力划桨，其实不然。身为给与推动力的人，必须有宏亮的声音，才能使全船的人划得有力有劲，穿越激流，前往征服每一阶段的激流。

前进一段水路，我们来到属安全地带的激流，George要我们全船人下水试水适应。我、萍妹和脚仔本无意下水，却给洋人女士泼水，势要我们下水。哈哈，拗不过她，我们全都下水咯！

接下来，我们来到第一个漩涡 -- Merry-Go-Round。一个不经心，全船人都掉进河里了，就除了两位艇夫。切记在心，不会游泳的我，只管掉进河里时，双手握紧自己的救生衣，不要惊慌，等待组员来救我。大家都非常有团队精神，很快的，大伙儿都逐一被拉上艇，我们又开始向前划行。

突然觉得自己好像准备掉船似的，其他队员都有地方定位和顶住自己的脚，不被抛下船。我呢？（后来上岸才知道原来我可以捉住两旁划艇员的救生衣，George没有告诉我，真冤枉！）坐在身旁的洋人男士听了我的言语，大笑一顿。

惊险还在后头，我们的艇就快来到Scooby Doo漩涡。一个不留意，我又不受控制地被抛下船，还不知被那来的队员身体再度压下水，喝了好大一口的水。然后，艇子离我越来越远，我一度又一度的被漩涡冲离、汹涌的水流掩盖，又不知肚子喝了多少“凉水”。我开始有点慌了，有点感觉不能呼吸，怕了！

正好此时，洋人男士扶着他的桨柄游向我，问我“Are you okay？”，跟着他把桨柄给我，叫我不要慌，然后他再游向艇（会游泳，真好！）。一会儿，我终于被救上船了。有惊无险，在激流漩涡里不免会挣扎惊慌失措，亲自经历你就知道，这一次我真的吓坏了！洋人女士笑洋人男士又被抛下水。哇，肚子感觉凉凉地，滚着太多刚刚喝下的“凉水”，也不觉得饿了。

接着，脚仔和洋人女士换位子；我和萍妹换位子，我也要来个划艇，尽兴一下。萍妹的声音够响亮的，绝对是做艇客的不二人选，再适合不过了。原来，划艇很费力，腰力手力脚力一并配合，靠功夫哦，感觉很不一样！我们穿越Cobra、Lambada激流等，到最后的Washing Machine。哈，这次洋人女士一个人被抛下水了，被拉上艇时，洋人男士取笑回她，两人打平手。看在我眼里呢，我觉得他们俩非常有活力（一点都不输给我们这些年轻的），很懂得一起享受人生，完全不受年龄局限。夫唱妇随，才是令人羡慕。

大约一小时多，我们完成了整个10km的激流挑战，整个行程分刺激的，满足感十分。到回Pangi，我们换上干净的衣服，然后即可享用午餐。看似简单的一餐，可却觉得十分美味可口。

三点多，在火车还没来之前，大伙儿来张大合照留念，笑得真可爱，可能是心上的那一块紧张大石随着激流挑战的结束也放下了。

回保佛的车程中，其中两位可爱男生走了过来留了email要我们寄份合照给他们，还和我们闲聊一会，蛮健谈一下。发现原来他们的激流配套比我们便宜了RM30。爬阿庇山的配套也比我们低，那我们岂不是给人斩了很多菜头！四海之内皆兄弟嘛，下一次有什么好康头记得和我们分享啊喂！

不聊还不知道，原来在他们眼里，我们大概是他们年龄的一伙，开心死我们了！很荣幸有这一班可爱的年轻小伙子陪伴，还是我们沾了你们的光吧，心也一起年轻起来！谢了！

到了火车站，我们即启程回阿庇市。途中，下着毛毛雨。奇迹就是跟随着我们，竟然还有美仑美的日落观看，为今日我们的激流划艇，新朋友的结识增添另一份感动。

饱饱乐
回到城里，便是晚餐时间。二话不说，我们决定去吃肉骨茶，还要有油炸条的。还加了福州肉丸，吃得大伙儿津津有味，QQ的，好好吃！

噢呀嗉咪呐噻
明日别时依依，鸿仔，阿慧和两元将乘早机回槟岛，我们则是黄昏班机。整理好行李，大家先来个早告别（吩咐他们无需叫醒我们，自便咯），而后，疲累的我们便入睡了。

学裹粽子咯！

2008-06-09T22:21:00.033+08:00

上个星期日正是农历五月初五，也是华人其中一个重要的节日。对，就是端午节（或称为重阳节）。端午节少不了的主角 -- 粽子。现今社会，任何时刻想要吃粽子都可以吃到。可就在这一天，特别来得有意义。

粽子，肯定你会吃吧，那你可懂得如何裹粽子呢？我呢，老实说，就是不懂。所以一大早就起身要和妈妈偷师。哇，妈妈昨晚早已把需要的配料都煮炒好了。

粽子叶，用热水煮软，方便折绑。

糯米，加一些调味，让它香喷喷。

半肥瘦肉，一定要半肥瘦哦。
全是瘦肉的话，吃起来会很硬。

半肥瘦的话，肥肥油油的，

裹出来的粽子才会香香油油。

冬菇、栗子和虾米都有稍微经过煮炒。

喜欢的话，还可以加上其它材料如干蚝等。

鸭蛋黄（一粒RM0.60-0.89，好贵吃哦！）
可有可无，依个人喜好而定，胆固醇高咯！

材料准备好了，裹粽子可又是另一门学问和技巧，很靠功夫哦。

两片粽叶一高一低相叠，再折成漏斗形。

最低层，先放一层糯米。再加入其它材料。

最后，再盖上一层糯米。

然后，将整个粽子裹紧。

上半部剩余的粽叶对下折，

把糯米和材料都成堆了。

再把它用绳子绑紧，四个角的粽子就成形啦。

再来就容易的多了，把所有裹好的粽子都放进大锅，加入一些盐，慢火煮2-3小时便可尝到香喷喷的粽子咯。裹粽子，其实不简单啊，裹不好的话，你就会发现大锅内有粽叶、肉、冬菇等，因为粽子散开了。所以，吃只要几分钟，裹却得用上几小时哦！今天，一粒普通的粽子可以卖上RM4-RM6，你说，学不学裹粽子好？

Good Helper

2008-06-09T22:01:00.009+08:00

Ding ding ding, I have found something special from Live it Up, at LG floor One Utama last Tuesday. What's that so special ne? Yeh, a monitor cleaner and keyboard brush (you may see it before, but sorry, this is my first-time discovery :P).

Before that, I always used tissue or cotton to clean my labtop monitor and keyboard and that did not help at all. Now, this unique-designed froggie (there's other animal designs available) monitor cleaner and keyboard brush has been very helpful and easy to use. Try it up, it's only RM8.90. A real good helper to keep my labtop always at clean status. Cheers!!!

How to Survive leh?

2008-06-04T23:13:00.001+08:00

Oil price is going to increase from RM1.92 per litre to RM2.70 per litre by tomorrow. An increase of RM0.78, what a NIGHTMARE to many of the motor users when government made such an announcement this evening. Previous experience, I didn’t even bother. But this time is different, I think it really gave me a hit! Gosh, an increase of 40.63%!

Verified the trueness of the news, I was on my way back from Subang to KL. You know how long it took me to reach home? Damn, I was driving from 6.45pm until 9pm. For two hours plus, I was on the road. The roads and the petrol stations were getting congested everywhere. People were crazily lined up to fill the petrol as the price is going to be different by midnight. Some people even kiasu until after filling the car oil-tank, filling their spared plastic tank. The increase drives the whole world crazy!

I didn’t like the idea, but that’s the reality I have to accept. I live in a crazy world. The price increase is just a beginning; there’ll be more increases in many other things which you and I going to face tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow…

Tell me, HOW to survive leh? Money that you earned has such a small buying power today! I think, I gotta be a real rat race starts from this moment on, in order to be affordable and keep surviving in the crazy world like this. Don’t you agree with me?

沙巴亚庇逍遥游（五）

2008-06-01T21:57:00.005+08:00

4.30am左右，两元很准时就给咱们敲门，我们几个赖床虫才要懒洋洋地起身。讲真的，昨晚没什么睡到，夜间还有蚊子老大来拜访，偶然间，是乎还有猴老爷捣蛋，就是朦朦胧胧的，太累了太爱睡了，就算是天塌下来还当棉被盖。

约会日出
准备就绪，我们出发赶着去约会日出咯！四周围一片寂静、黑漆漆的，别无他人，就只有我们七人。只靠着妹妹的微微头灯，我们向昨天从沙滩男那儿探到的方向走去。凌晨的美莫过于夜空闪烁的星星，是乎都忙着帮我们照亮，和我们说话，叫我们不要害怕。

走着走着，来到了聚有水的沙滩，不知水的深度，我们考虑是否应该前进。在那儿待了好一阵子，喋了点零食（肚子在吵了），妹妹又试探了水的浅度，后，我们决定继续向前进攻，希望来得及欣赏日出的美。

又再走了好一段路，我们看到的是一望无际的石头。哇，石头路，不好走哦！若继续前进，或许我们可以看到日出，不过担心走回来的时候，或许这些石头将被潮水淹盖，那我们岂不是遇上阻碍，怎么回到住宿处呢？发觉如此的不对劲，我们毅然放弃挑战未知数的前方，往回头路走。所以，日出我们没看到，不过却观赏了刚破晓的天空，一样美丽精彩，还是有所收获，没有失望白费心机。
自由活动
哇，这么早起身，我是人醒胃醒，已经挨了一段时间的饥饿，是时候慰劳它咯！吃饱饱了，我、鸿和慧就走回房间决定再小歇一会儿；妹妹、萍妹和脚仔去snokerling；而两元就独自到处捕景，各自精彩。

哈哈。。。回到房间的我们，小歇一会儿后，洗个澡，闲着没事做，我们来玩打辫子。哈哈，三个人就绑了三个不同款式的辫子，回到童年，好笑又可爱。

差午餐还有一段时间，还有一项使命还未完成，我拿了妹妹的相机去帮她们拍一些snokerling照去。阳光还蛮晒的，佩服妹妹、萍妹和脚仔能够在艳阳的高挂下享受她们的snokerling。咔嚓咔嚓。。。妹妹有很多甫士哦。她们还告诉我才遇到的惊险 – 小水母攻击，真的吓人！而后，她们就要上岸梳洗，准备吃午餐咯。

饱饱乐
等着妹妹她们的当儿，我们几个又跑去充当模特儿，咔嚓个痛快。累了（阳光很猛啊喂），我们便躲进休闲室内观赏节目，等候妹妹们一起用午餐。今天的午餐不错，有闻名的玉粟汤，我终于尝到了，果然是没得顶！

再会咯，阳光沙滩男
时间飞逝，两天一夜的Pulau Tiga休闲团终告一段落，我们是时候乘快艇回阿庇市咯。当然，又有新的旅客观光此景点，沙滩男总是挂着阳光般的笑脸，迎接及欢送旅客。我有一点羡慕他们那种没有都市的繁忙、简单且无拘无束的生活。自问，我可否像他们的洒脱，不受都市的诱惑，就在岛上生活？或许，有一天。。。再会咯，阳光沙滩男！

游走阿庇市
一路上，又是摇摇晃晃的乘车回阿庇市。到达时，已近黄昏时分。做什么呢？接下来是随兴游走，爱走那就走那，爱做什么就做什么。第一件要事，先喂饱肚子。所以呢，就到民宿楼下的咖啡馆喝茶，尝碳烤面包。好好吃！

添饱肚子后，我们便开始漫无目的的游走阿庇市。哈，妹妹还没放弃寻找不知什么牌子的冰淇淋，什么旺吗？我怎么也想不起来了。我们终于在购物中心里找到。真的很够味的呢！若不是肚子饱饱的，吃一只是不够的，因为售卖的口味有太多选择了，左右为难啊！

走着，走着，我们想起刚才在车内看到的手画电影海报，妹妹建议不如咱们去看电影 – 三国：见龙卸甲。我说没带冷衣，怕冷，不去看了。妹妹可就说我们让你取暖。斗不过她，我也只好一起参与了。哇，戏票惊人哪，六元？这个年代去哪儿找啊？买了戏票，距离看戏时间，还有一段时间，干什么呢？哈哈。。。别无其它，我们去饱饱乐—海鲜餐咯！

饱饱乐
我们选了一间由妹妹的老板介绍的 -- 双天海鲜酒楼。我还是第一次自己看水缸问价钱点菜，感觉真棒！哇，好丰富的一餐，有白灼虾，沙巴菜，矮瓜，七星鱼和白蚌。每一样佳肴都很新鲜入味，吃得大家乐开怀。我们七剑客连一条重1kg的七星鱼都啃不下，实在是太差劲了。吃饱后，我们到附近的小超市走走，以免吃太饱，顶着肚子不舒服。

电影乐
三国：见龙卸甲，一部话语剧片，可是却看到很多异族也齐来观赏哦，难得啊！是否是冲着刘德华而来捧场的？这样充满古代历史文艺的戏，两元和鸿仔肯定是行家，我可是被剧里的一些文言文给弄晕了，听得我两只耳朵大。

还好，整体来讲还蛮okey的，还有靓仔看那会闷呢？赵子龙手下四将之一，邓芝（安志杰饰演)可是超有型的！鸿仔有流口水哦，虽然剧情跟她所阅读有所差别，有型仔邓芝的出现，抵回那戏票钱咯！安志杰不就抢完刘德华的锋头？各有千秋啦！

噢呀嗉咪呐噻
十一时多，我们观赏完三国：见龙卸甲。个个都累了，也还没洗澡，拖着疲惫的身体，我们漫步在夜空下，走回民宿。明天，有更刺激的玩意儿等着我们，早点休息，噢呀嗉咪呐噻。。。

苏东大头虾

2008-05-21T20:45:00.001+08:00

苏东大头虾？哪里有得吃？好吃吗？哦，no no no。。。我说的不是可以吃的苏东大头虾。我指的是人。谁？不好意思，真是本人。无药可救呢。

今天，靠近中午时分，本人真准备出门。“乓”的一声，我的房门锁了。哈，看看餐桌，这下可好了，我的家钥匙和车钥匙都还置放在房内。这也意味着我自己反锁在自己的家里。进房也不是，出大门也不是，就只有客厅可以待。怎么会有这样笨的人呢？咳，就是有。我啦！

还好有电话在身。打个电话向平嫂求救。储备钥匙有，可却锁在她房内了。想到望凯，他也有我们家的储备钥匙，还有“一线生机”。不久之后，接到平哥打来的电话，说望凯问“又再反锁？？” 哎，是我都会摇头。不好意思。我已经很小心了。这一次，他救不了我，因才刚换了工，不在附近。

平哥只好把工作放在一边，驾车回来给我送储备钥匙。大约半个小时，听到平哥开门的声音，后就传来“苏东”两个字咯。哈哈。。。我，是无可奈何，必须给承认了。

哎呀呀。。。一个不小心，给全世界的人添麻烦了。我这个粗心苏东大头虾，我也不懂得如何说话，无言以对呐！平哥和平嫂是我一起居住最久的人，我却是添最多麻烦的一个。我的愚笨，真的很对不起；你们的宽容以待，真的感激不尽。我有福了，你们可是有。。。嘻嘻！

沙巴亚庇逍遥游（四）

2008-05-17T00:03:00.008+08:00

6.00am：大伙儿就起床了。旅游比作工还要勤力，决不赖床。不过，今天有点例外，我是肚子在绞痛，要赖一下床也不行。就这样，拉了三次，我今天不用吃东西咯？

昨天上下山时，脚用力过度了，双脚又肿又硬又痛。萍妹的朋友说一进房就觉得这一群人一定是刚爬山回来，因为有着很浓的counter pain味道。哈哈，我们想要的咩，身不由己啊喂！今天还算好很多，就只差上下楼梯依旧像个老太婆，看到阶梯你会怕，怕到你还是得爬。

Philipino Market
今天，将会是很轻松的一天。我们将出海到另一个岛上过夜— Survivor Island of Borneo。在那之前，我们先去逛逛每逢星期日的Sunday Market，也称为Philipino Market。

走在Philipino Market位，各式各样的东西琳琅满目，亏我们只有一小时的时间在那消耗。哇，阿伯卖得粽子看到我流口水，可是我的肚子不舒服，有心无力，真浪费！好多手工艺品、美味可口的食物、装饰品、宠物等等，来不及看也来不及买，我们只有走马看花。匆忙之中，还好赶得及跟老板娘刹个好价，买了件t-shirt，据说glow in the dark，真的吗？（KK gang，你们的衣服穿了有没有在夜间发光？）

车子准时八点来接我们。去jetty的路程还真有一段，一个小时多吧，还可以小歇一会儿。必须去Kuala Penyu先，沿途经过Papar，妹妹问mamar在那里，哈哈！车内，大伙儿闹肚子饿，还好我们爬山的粮食还有剩很多，帮得上忙咯。终于看到了三只大龟，不愧是Kuala Penyu。这儿，我们必须要越过一条大河。等了好一阵子才轮到我们。怎么还是没有动静？回头一看，原来，我们的车早已离开陆地好一段距离咯，真是后知后觉。

Survivor Island of Borneo (Pulau Tiga Resort)
过了河，再走一小段路，我们便到达jetty。乘上快艇，我们出发去我们的目的地 – Pulau Tiga Resort。整二十分钟就到了resort。哇，海水清澈见底，许许多多的大鱼小鱼自由自在的游来游去。还有fit fit的，cool cool的沙滩男迎接我们，爽！

登记了过后，沙滩男给我们简单的解说岛上规矩与活动。过后，我们拿了钥匙便回房放行李。三人一房，浴室的空间真是大。两元今晚可有得好睡一觉了，它独占一间房，滚上滚下，再滚左滚右，都没人会理，哟，你看我们对你几好？

咔嚓乐
由于还不是午餐时间，所以我们就到四处乱逛，大玩摆甫士，什么花招都有，享受摄影乐。模特儿，不好当哦，不过确是过瘾！

饱饱乐
哇，真的是很饿，终于挨到午餐时间，我们可是等不及咯！哇，几天在亚庇，今天终于吃到热腾腾的食物。呵，鸡肉和黄瓜好吃，腐竹皮太硬了，有吃牛肉的也投诉咬不断。哎，也是一餐啦，孤岛上，可以填饱肚子就算了。

美美乐
火山泥，Pulau Tiga 的重要景点。没去，可不算到过Pulau Tiga哦！哇，是活的火山泥吗？还看到它“卜”一下又一下。大伙儿早就准备好，即刻就可以下泥洗美美，天然美容，有钱也买不到。外国人来这儿可是从头到脚都涂满火山泥，极珍贵的哦！
一下泥，那个感觉，要怎样形容呢？嗯，我还是觉得有机会你自己去体会比较好。嘛就是滑溜溜的咯，这样才能滋润皮肤。哎，我怎么整个人怎样撑下去火山泥都还是浮上来？没有平衡点啊喂！累坏我了！最后还得托两元把我从泥里拉上岸，糗死了！

接下来可是精彩，玩洗够了，全身是泥，到那洗澡？呵呵，向导的狡猾，我们全上当了。有水冲洗，就那一点儿的水，洗到几时才会干净？洗到几时才可以轮到下一位？所以呢？就这样怎个人像极了人像(statue)，走回刚才整整1km的路回到海边，才大洗特洗，真是开玩笑！讲真，你若到了那儿，没下泥洗美美，就无法体会我们的精彩！一定要下泥哦！

饱饱乐
泡完火山泥，好好儿梳洗一番，肚子又在闹饿咯，真的很快。Resort有提供下午茶，我们当然不会错过。啊，到的时候，时间差不多要过了，沙丁鱼三文治剩下没几片，我们可就好意思，叫厨房的人再为我们多准备一些，还好，他们还很乐意添加。这时候，竟还下起雨，那，离日落的时间也不久，可有奇迹？

夕阳西下
原以为下雨，与夕阳无缘。但是，哈哈，上帝是特别兼顾我们，停得真是时候。一轮蛋黄夕阳呈现在天海之间。

玩玩乐
吃饱饱了，晚上了，有什么好消遣的？不用担心，配套还包括打桌球，卡拉OK。我们当中，就只有阿慧有经验，其他的是打桌！打下打下，打得可是有款的，每一个人都会进球了，还可以要什么颜色就打中什么颜色，厉害咯！

其中，我们还有卡拉OK节目参半。妹妹和萍妹还高歌几曲，让两个与我们同船的老外夫妇都听出耳油，大喊安哥！嘻，还有沙滩帅哥相伴，真是高兴到了极点！

完了两场桌球，歌也唱累了，我们到休闲室看电视。哈哈，全场就只有我们，爱看什么就什么，棒极了！休闲室其实是开到十点，可是外头的沙滩男竟没来赶客，原来他们也在外头有自己的娱乐，所以我们若无其事地待到十二点才散场。

噢呀嗉咪呐噻
劲啦，明早四点多我们要起身看日出，今晚竟然这么迟才休息，可爬得起床？两元，靠你咯，考你的功夫如何把我们六女叫醒咯！噢呀嗉咪呐噻。。。

沙巴亚庇逍遥游（三）

2008-04-21T23:31:00.012+08:00

凌晨一点多我们就得起床准备攻顶。短短几个小时的小歇，没人真的入睡吧。房外的走廊已经传来人来人往的声音，大家都在忙着洗刷，准备攻顶挑战。穿着long john还有冷衣，依然觉得很冷。刷牙时，牙齿都会打架，整个人在发抖，所以，都是快收快脚两三下解决。昨夜，是谁告诉我，上厕所时，屁股还感觉像是在吹冷气般。。。哈哈！

挑战巅峰
怕自己的脚痛会阻碍爬山旅途，我服用了脚仔给我的pain killer。彩萍身体不适，所以不参与我们了。一切准备就绪，我们大约凌晨三点出发。外边的空气当然比室内更冷。导游Richard说围巾和冷衣就别穿得这么密实，要透风一点。啊，我带去的headlamp突出状况，它闹别扭了，竟然不能亮。这下可好了，我真的得抹黑上山？只好小心翼翼地跟着别人后面慢慢走了。才走不久，身体就已经觉得开始热了。Richard，姜还是老的辣！一边走，一边松开围巾，手套也脱了。

抬头望上天空，哇，星空一大片！星星点点，闪闪烁烁，密布整个夜空，好美好美。只有身在高山才会观看到此景，太妙了。爬着，爬着，原来鸿仔和两元就在我身后。鸿仔发觉我没有头灯照路，递给我她多出来的手电筒。鸿仔，爱死你了！这样一来，容易许多了，不至于会不小心踩空跌倒扭脚，怕怕！

感觉越冷了，爬到要开始抓绳子了。哇，我的手冰到入骨，拉绳子时磨擦到手，痛死我了。欲把手套穿上，一手又得抓住绳子，深怕手一松就会掉下山崖（黑漆漆一片，什么都看不到，非常没有安全感），一边又冷到穿不进去，后面的人还等着我呢，紧张死我了。越爬越喘，呼吸越觉辛苦，鼻子冷到痹，鼻水流到你都没察觉。“Moi, are you okay?” “yes!” 我几乎走几步，就停下脚步大喘吸气，真的是要了我的命！

爬得真的很辛苦啊喂。。。高巅峰上有一千个客户等着我啊（那是明仔在我来亚庇前鼓励我的话）。。。妹妹在我前方，我一定要到顶和妹妹合照。。。峰顶看似很近，却又那么的遥远。。。天空看似快要破晓，哎呀，我可赶得及在日出之前到顶？。。。风好大啊，鼻水不停地流。。。咦吖，手套、围巾都沾到了。。。我带着的mask都湿了，是空气雾水还是鼻水？。。。怎么怎样爬都还不到？。。。天亮了，我要不要继续攻顶呢？。。。一定要上，那我就可以了了我的心愿。。。3km的路途，千辛万苦，我用了大约三个小时。。。我，终于爬到峰顶了!

巍巍的巅峰上
巅峰上，风好强好大，还好有neyho的体贴窝心wind breaker，阿喋的手套和妈妈为我买的温暖牌long john。“Moi, cari siapa? You punya kawan belum sampai lah.”“Tak mungkin lah, kawan saya sudah sampai.” 东张西望了十分钟，眼睛被风吹得好痛啊，我依然找不到妹妹的踪影。怎么可能？就只有我一个人在这儿？想着想着，突然有一股感触涌上心头，眼泪就快流出来了。爬上巅峰了又怎样？我自个儿没带相机（气温太冷了，电池一直low battery），抵巅峰骄傲的这一刻，我怎样留念？谁与我分享？

不管了，在我身边正好有一群年轻小伙子，我只好硬着头皮请求他们帮我照张相再电邮给我。他们很欣然地就答应了，太感动了，谢谢你们！

照了张相，我有所满足。再欣赏观望峰巅四周的风景，云海一片，如诗如画，真不妄此行。我无法待留巅峰太久，地方小是一回事，风大可是关键，然，我便慢慢地下山。才下一小段，啊，妹妹在爬着上来，我终于可以如愿以偿。拍了照，我俩便一起下山去。哈，鸿仔和两元正也在积极地攻顶。啊咋啊咋啊咋，加油！再下一小段路，我看到Richard在努力地牵着阿慧的手，助她上峰巅。我看到她，真的很为她感到骄傲。阿慧，你是能的！原来，Richard一路上也用心良苦，好像骗小孩子那样，慢慢拉她上山，还一路帮她照相（就知道她喜欢照相），就这样骗上山来的。再发现原来脚仔早在300m的时候，身体不舒服就打道返回resort了。

嗯，下山回resort的时候，还真吃力，手力脚力一起给考验上了。我遇上昨天上山的uncle，他手脚灵活，下山轻松自在，我自称不如。下山比较快，用了仅仅两个小时就到resort。肚子真的是饿坏了，我迫不及待的拿了杯茶，一小碗粥就坐在那好好儿享受。

凯旋下山
大约十一点，我们就准备要下山咯。这一次改用Timpohon路程。脚仔和彩萍养足精神，下山的时候自然简单于我们其余的五人，因为我们五人的膝盖都严重创伤。每下一步都会“哇哇”好几声。在这样下去，下山的速度不仅仅是慢，那疼痛的时间嘛是一样被拉长了，这可就不得了！

呵，我又遇上刚才的uncle了，看着他在教着他儿子如何下山，我也略学一两招 -- 跑下山，不错啊。就这样，我一味的加快脚步跑下山。。。就用了三小时，我就抵达山下了。还真是开玩笑，最后的一段路，尽然还有一大截的阶梯要爬，我的妈呀！勇啊，两点二十分左右，我到了终点，呼咧！

大约半个小时后吧，妹妹、脚仔和彩萍也到了。就不知鸿仔、阿慧和两元会几点到，希望他们三克服万难，安全抵达。那，我们这么厢就先去用午餐等待他们吧（哈哈，这可是义气？有没有搞错啊？不好意思，肚子又饿了。。。）。

午餐的环境特优，食物看了也比较有胃口。我们可是傻了有整半粒钟多，走了整km的路，从终点那走路要到这个叫XXX的地方为了享用午餐的啊。由于越走越不对劲，转了弯又是路，路弯了又是路，什么建筑物都没看到，真的是累死人。不行，我们就地停了一辆迷你货车，给了十五零吉，载我们还距离大约3km的路程到这间餐馆用餐。鸿仔、阿慧和两元赶不及在这儿用午餐了，我们只好帮他们打便当。

今天跟走路非常有缘，用餐过后，还得走一段路到回KK Park。看到路，怕到你还是得走，走到你还是再怕。我们的司机在那儿等着我们，载我们回KK Town。七点左右，我们启程回KK Town。

车内，大伙儿都累坏了，摇摇晃晃的在那打瞌睡。很快，我们便到达Borneo Backpackers，一半也是托司机的急速驾驶咯，我们没赶时间，他比我们赶时间。嗯，由于大家都没怎么饿，所以我们只到楼下隔壁的咖啡博物馆喝茶。十点左右吧，我们便回房睡觉。

噢呀嗉咪呐噻
今晚的房内多了三位新客，这么巧，就是萍妹的同事。其中一位可真的是大声妹。兴奋地在那一直问爬山问题，我想，再问下去，我们就不用睡了，明早我们还得起早啊。就在那一刻，我大声说“晚安咯！”，大伙儿便熄灯就寝。今晚间，房内也多了一个陌生人的打鼾声，比我们这些上下山的人还要累哦！我们可真有得受（还好我们有萍妹跟他斗过，问你死咩？）！

沙巴亚庇逍遥游（二）

2008-04-19T01:15:00.018+08:00

大早乌龙

6.00am：起床咯！真想赖多一会儿，不过为了神山，无所谓啦！

来到厨房，我问那里的人，早餐要在那里享用？好一个问题，那个人看住我，跟着回答说：“自助！面包、Milo、茶都在那啦。” 嘻嘻，原来那个回答我问题的人也是这里的住客，真是大懵啊我，极不好意思。怪只怪那柜台小姐没告诉我们早餐是self-service咯，好愚哦！

7.00am：我们走向terminal租车去KK Park。不用等你问，已经有人向前探问我们要去哪了。就租了辆Unser，我们七人舒舒服服启程到KK Park去。一路上，我们有如山芭兼三八城市佬，在车内哗然不停，看到什么新鲜事物都“哇哇”声。司机不知会不会感到不耐烦（所以音量越开越大声？）！

失礼了

在车上说了不该说的话，司机看似马来人（因扭开的广播台是马来台），原来他是华人，会讲华语。某人叫我们自己唱歌，我说然到你不怕司机宰了你？他在听广播台呢。听毕，司机马上管掉广播台，全车顿鸦雀无声，好恐怖哦。还好有些欲讲出来的不满没说出声，要不然，真是失礼了喂！

走了好一大半段路，我们终于看到神山的风采。司机很识趣。把车驶到一边，让我们摄影一番英姿翩翩的神山！

9.30am：终于抵达KK Park。好多人群在那准备上山。我们是最后报道的一队。这下可好了，Porter　都给人请完了。我们仅仅剩下的就是导游一位。导游身形瘦小，他告诉说我只好当你们的导游兼porter咯。又是“哗”的一声，“导游，你能吗？”非常质疑的声音。11kg+10kg+7kg=28kg了喂，再加上他自己的7kg呢，整整四个背包，35kg，他可搬得上山？哦唛嗝！

导游问我们选择Mesilau，还是Timpohon上山。我们选择Mesilau，导游再次的确定，我们依然坚持不渝。导游心想吧，这班伙子，真不知好歹，都9.30am了，还选择这样长的路途，我这下可有的受，赚你们的钱，还真不容易啊！哈哈，管不着，我们可是兴致勃勃哦！拿了resort帮我们准备好的午餐(都要1kg哦)，我们向神山前进！

由Mesilau开始，必须再乘车半个小时到另一个起点。10.30am，我们正式开始爬山（走山吧？）。导游说你们先走吧，我随后赶上，一定慢过你们。

“跋山涉水”
半个小时后，我们到达第一个0.5km，不错咧。赶紧摆个pose拍下第一个o.5km这一刻。1km咯，还蛮快哦。。。1.5km。。。我看到牌了，前面就是2.0km了，快点。。。来，停，看上来，1，2，3，咔嚓。。。啊，已经很喘了，脚也开始累了。。。喝水补充水份。。。哇，有瀑布，很美哦。。。我们到3km的时候才用午餐。。。吖，3km是几点会到？我已经开始饿了。。。已经越过了2.5km，前面有亭子，我们休息吃午餐吧。。。好，终于可以吃了（那时大约两点左右）！

导游看到我们这一班人，不知心里会不会一直在那摇头，虽然他背着35kg的背包，可他是乎很轻松地就跟上我们后面，真是厉害！

饱饱乐
我们的午餐有火腿和芝士三文治、鸡蛋、炸鸡、薄饼、苹果、矿泉水和雪碧。好丰富哦！在山上岂可找到这么好吃的午餐？是丰富，可是全都冷了。哦，原来冷的炸鸡很好吃（自我安慰），下一次可以买KFC放在冰厨，饿的时候再拿来吃。。。大家一边吃，一边在那大谈大笑。。。

啊咋啊咋啊咋，加油！
Okay，吃饱了，继续上路。。。哇，前面就是3km了，很快呢。。。吃饱了有了能量，当然不一样咯。。。哎呀，是露水还是雨水？快穿上雨衣。。。哇，穿了雨衣真闷热。。。哟，雪碧冰冰的，真的好好喝哦！。。。前面有平路了，快点。。。哇，一直下坡，等一会儿，嘛就是有得你走上坡？。。。啊咋啊咋啊咋，加油！

上坡又下坡，下坡又上坡，是辛苦，蛮吃力的，还好有那沿路仙境相伴，还不至于在那儿大大埋怨叫苦。
我看到前面有人。。哇，终于看到不是我们的人了，我们终于可以赢别人了。。。哈，竟然有人走到那么慢？（竟敢取笑别人？真是五十步笑百步！)。。。万岁，到分叉路了。。。我们一定要赶在天黑之前到resthouse，沙巴的天空比较快暗。。。看我们这幅德样，这样的速度，应该是六点可以到吧？

哎哟，几时到laban rata？。。。哟，风吹过来，真冷。。。我的手快要结冰了。。。七点过后就没有晚餐吃。。。哇，怎么可以那样！。。。我快要不能了。。。好喘啊。。。脚好累啊。。。救命啊。。。uncle说转一个弯就到了。。。嗫，那边有灯的就是了。。。那里哦？我怎么看都没看到，不要骗我哦。。。妈啊！

妹妹和脚仔最棒，领先走在前面，6.30pm到达laban rata。我和鸿仔7pm到，还亏一路上有几个uncles在那儿一直鼓励我们，还帮我们照路。uncle今年来第四次了，每年都来，好厉害啊！我，一次就够了！阿慧、彩萍和两元7.30pm左右到。我们做到了！

饱饱这下可乐了！
坐在Laban Rata Resthouse里，我几乎是在那儿喘了十分钟的气，久久不能平息，胃口也没了。还是得吃，明早更加需要能量。迟了，晚餐真的是剩得没什么。怎么这样残忍。咳，热汤都没有一碗，蘑菇汤还是勉强舀到的半碗。哈，黄瓜好好吃，很脆！原来，迟到的人可以叫厨房特别下厨，怎么我快要饱的时候才知道？哦唛嗝！

噢呀嗉咪呐噻
冲凉有热水吗？妹妹说有，她说向左还是向右转啦？我就是左右不分，怎么调都是冷水啊喂。。。肥皂泡都不知道有没有洗干净，我就是三两下搞定。牙齿在打架了，全身在发抖了，我的唏唏声，不知道有没有吓倒隔壁冲凉的那个。我带去的只是一块小面巾啊喂（还以为resthouse会提供毛巾）！

到了房间，我们准备就寝，个个的穿着真像已经准备好明早凌晨要攻顶似的。那时已经九点了，凌晨一点多就要起身，只有那区区的几个小时休息小睡，够吗？，房内的heater根本就没有启用啊，冷啊喂！我给的钱就是得到这样的待遇和设施吗？

连环惊心动魄
上床一个小时左右，才要入眠，突发状况，让你惊心一场。鸿仔突然说：“我很辛苦，没有氧气，我不能呼吸！”；紧接着彩萍说：“我要吐了！”；跟着阿慧说：“我的胸口好像很痛！”

啊。。。朦胧中，我从刚要入眠惊醒。我说：“你们到底怎了，我现在就去开灯”，话还没说完，彩萍说：“我已经吐了！” 灯着了，看到鸿仔真的是脸色苍白，接着她便跑去厕所透透风。跑到阿慧那，帮她拍了几下背，揉了一揉（哈，她说我在吃她豆腐:P）。哎，没法子，为了大伙儿和自己的幸福，我跑下楼找人开电和责问heater的事。那负责人说现在正要开，真是的！

三个人吃药的吃药，贴salonpas的贴salonpas，终于我发现原来窗口是可以开的。空气流通了一些，有了heater也暖和了一些（只不过是区区的几分钟就没了），大家回床继续争取时间休息。搽了一整身的counter pain，真的是冷到入骨，咳，heater是在房内摆美的。今夜，三个连环惊心突发状况，怕到你还要再怕！明早，会是怎么样的情形呢？

待续。。。

沙巴亚庇逍遥游（一）

2008-04-16T19:20:00.019+08:00

策划与期盼了半年多的旅游假期终于来临。阿佳妹妹一早精心炮制的沙巴亚庇逍遥游，我们一组七人整装待发，就只等那日子一到，即可尽兴地在亚庇次吃喝玩乐逍遥游。

03．04．2008 （星期四）
10．20am：我、妹妹、彩萍和光霞（脚仔）浩浩荡荡地从吉隆坡飞往亚庇。前一个晚上，讲真，我是睡不着的，心情太兴奋了！

12．35pm：抵达亚庇机场。比预料的时间快了十五分钟。

1．05pm ：鸿仔、阿慧和两元（RM2）随后即从槟岛到达亚庇机场。

两队人马正式碰面，出发！！！亚庇，我们来也。。。

Welcome to Borneo

真是受宠若惊，来机场迎接我们去Borneo Backpackers民宿竟是一辆大巴士。我们还三番两次地询问接待叔叔，这么一辆大巴，就只载咱们七人吗？嘻嘻。。。确定没错！我们，很有架势哦！

饱饱乐
安顿了行李，我们便迫不及待地去医肚子了。来到一间名为新万泰的，脚仔说多人就代表好吃。点了好几道菜肴，当中，属沙褒豆腐最一极棒，极品啊！还有苦瓜炒虾、咕噜肉和芙蓉蛋，都好好吃de ne。

逍遥四处走走
喂饱肚子后，我们很随兴地游走KK Town。走到那，看到那，好不自在。想起朋友同事们，真不好意思，他们那边厢还在埋头苦干，我们这边厢却走在KK Town，四处乱逛，真过瘾，非常痛快（不好意思de ne，少少辛灾乐祸）！

Atkinson Clock Tower

就位于民宿的附近。那时候，下着细细毛雨，我们还是照游不误。

DONUT TIME
走着走着，天空在下起雨来了，不是毛毛雨咧。今天的日落恐怕要泡汤了吗？嗯，管的了那么多？走一步，看一步咯。走进百货商店里，一眼就看到各式各样的donut，真叫人垂延三尺。即使肚子不觉得饿，就是因为嘴馋，不吃还真对不起自己咯。来一个spicy flossy，叮叮叮！鸿仔小吃，没被donut诱惑，劲咯！

夕阳西下
老天爷真的很兼顾我们。雨，就是停得正是时候。我们又可以流浪街头了，幸运的话，可能可以看到日落哦！喝茶的档口老二说今天应该是看不日落。但，若你相信奇迹的出现，就会有奇迹哦！我与老天爷商量了，他大人很慷慨地献一个日落好为我们洗尘。老天爷，您太疼爱我们了！我们在那“哟”的好久，相机搬进搬出，舍不得离开，只因那晚霞真的太美了！

饱饱乐
肚子又再敲锣打鼓咯。这下要找什么吃呢？走了好久，看了很多，最后我们决定吃煮炒。“多人就代表好吃”，又选了一间多人的。而这间店的老板娘好串哦。
“来个豆腐。”
“要日本豆腐，本地豆腐？”
“哪一个比较好吃？”
“都好吃。”
“那，要本地的”
“要煮肉碎，还是。。。”

哇哇哇。。。老板娘是乎给了太多options了吧，不是应该帮我们介绍吗？唉，菜就这样就点了好一阵子，真头痛！还好啦，菜肴都还不错，价钱也公道，比午餐便宜，叮！

吃得太饱，大家慢吞吞地走回民宿。一路上就发现了很多好吃的东西，决定下山后，再来大剁一餐。

噢呀嗉咪呐噻
非常舒服、愉快的第一天，期待我们明早的登山时刻。六点就得起床，大家还是早点休息，为明天的冲刺养精蓄锐。呵呵。。。噢呀嗉咪呐噻。。。

待续。。。

老豆·醉酒·可爱

2008-03-03T23:04:00.001+08:00

老豆喝醉酒真的很可爱。看他那般high，料我自己醉酒的时候或许也是那样。从别人身上看自己，感触良多。老豆high的时候，什么仪态都没了。抱着姨丈不放，像个小孩似的。任凭姨丈在他左右频上献吻都没躲闪，真是两个醉酒的人在一起的话，有什么事情是做不出来的，真是没眼看！还豪爽到，杯杯敬，杯杯干！老妈子要拦都拦不住，真是high翻天咯！

酒席完毕时，他还有自知之明，把车钥匙给我，说他没办法开车了。姨丈要扶他下楼，甚至说愿意背他到车上（喝酒的人很有义气哦！），他还死硬坐在那椅子上，不愿起身，蛮说“不需要”。老妈子讲老豆若不能喝，就别学人喝。老豆则理直气壮道他没醉，只不过是少少晕眩，坐上个钟头的话就没事了。老妈子笑道人家不用收拾关店，就让你坐在那儿整个钟。看他们在那儿笑闹，真是好笑兼有趣啊！

老豆还真是男人五十一条龙，向来滴酒不沾，老来才来学人喝酒，哈哈。。。怎么说呢？就是kawai（啊。。。shame shame de ne）！

Evan Almighty

2008-02-18T22:19:00.003+08:00

Evan Almighty, not a new movie. But I just got the opportunity to watch it during this Chinese New Year. Well, if you haven’t watched the movie, then, I’d suggest you to spare your little time and watch it. Besides the funny parts that will cheer up your day, I’m sure you’ll get something out of it. I was touched by the movie.

Maybe this is not the first time you heard about these quotes but I think worth to share here again. Powerful essence quotes/lessons that I got from this movie:-

a. Opportunity
“If someone pray for patient, you think God gives them patient, or to give them the opportunity to be patient? If you pray for courage, does God give them courage, or to give them the opportunity to be more courageous? If someone pray for the family to be closer, you think God will give them the warmth about the feeling, or to give them more opportunity to love each other?”

b. Change
“How do we change the world? One act of random kindness (ARK) at a time.” It's just like a small (or even an insignificant) change a day, ultimately, it’d become a huge change at the later day. Every little action has its meaning, don’t underestimate.

c. Belief
When you determine to do something, in many people’s eyes, it may seem like you’re trying to make fool of yourself, your life. But belief will be the faith to keep you up to pursuit your dream. Believe in yourself!

今天我们要分离

2008-02-01T22:45:00.000+08:00

你我相伴三年时光
陪我走过风风雨雨
我们始终不离不弃

贤途有你相随左右
我不曾寂寞孤单过
感谢你一直的忍让

持一步一脚印理念
陪我不断熬夜辛苦
达成我的心愿目标

我们一起哭笑日子
我都一一铭记在心
一辈子都挥散不去

你是我心中的第一
这个事实永不改变
更没有人可以代替

二零零八零一二九
基于彼此互相了解
所以我们选择分离

她带着你走的一刻
我以为我们的离别
不会有不舍和难过

而那一秒凝望着你
我由衷深深的感受
我是感动也爱你的

祝愿于新一任的她
比我更懂得珍惜你
呵护你关心你爱你

我的心你听懂了吗？
也祝我新的旅途上
找到我的幸福快乐！

p/s: 我的小灵鹿投入别人怀里了，我又恢复自由了，也开始再次展开寻觅属于我的幸福车站！叮！

Reunion Dinner @ Damansara Village

2008-01-31T22:23:00.000+08:00

一月二十七日，哈哈，又有什么特别？日子是没什么特别，不过是八婆和八公们让这个日子特别。嘻嘻，嘛就是我们八婆八公一年一度的新年团年饭咯！

这次可是精挑细选后才决定到Damansara Village享用火锅哦！有几好吃呢？简直是垂衍三尺，津津有味，有多少，吃多少！

香喷喷的火锅汤，除了含有益于身体的药材，还有阵阵的华人米酒香哦！难以抗拒！

桌子上放得满满的山珍海味，大伙儿在等着火锅煮滚呢！快等不及了！

看不清楚锅内的一锅熟，以下让不在场的你望梅止渴，明年可别错过我们的团年聚餐咯！

明日我就开始放新年假咯，恭祝各位俊男美女新年快乐！
新的一年里，吃喝玩乐样样齐！钱包口袋天天满！

偶又扭柴了！

2008-01-18T22:55:00.000+08:00

话说在星期一早上，走着路到办公室时，迎面正吹来一阵大风，把偶的头发吹散了。正想把头发拨整齐之时，又在下着阶梯的偶，没把阶梯踩好，就这样，咕噜迟钝的偶---“叮”，脚就扭柴了！当时的偶只管有没有出丑，因对面街坐着一大批人在享用早餐。幸亏阶梯那儿正好有一些花花草草，我想没有什么人注意到吧！

啊啦嘛，脚痛的要命。。。女人咯，爱靓不爱命，穿高跟鞋啦，就是这样咯。尤其是粗心的偶，走路常常绊脚，还是别穿那么多高跟。可是。。。可是。。。有时还是有想穿高跟的瘾；有时要配搭嘛。。。咳，又是女人的错！

之后就没再理会那受伤的脚，路还是继续走，生意还是照做！偶尔还会隐隐做痛，不去理它，又没事了。

昨晚，觉得脚有点儿不对劲，都几天了，没有踵的现象，可是还是痛，就自己拿了不懂什么药水在那儿擦啊，推拿啊，偶好厉害哦！屁用啊，早上起来，脚还是一样没改色。

直至今天下午，看到佬细的脚，哇，踵得阿妈都不认得，要去敷药，偶也八婆跟着去看铁打。就这样，偶的脚经过推拿师傅的诊断和治疗，就被包得像一粒粽子出来啦！

哈哈，笑佬细啦，偶自己还不是一样！嘻嘻，包得这个样子，偶还是可以这边走那边走；车还是风雨不改，这边驾那边驾。

叮叮叮。。。隆重介绍二零零八最新脚装饰，越大越有型！

一二二六，真幸福！

一二二六有什么特别？嘛就是Boxing Day 咯！对我们来说并不是一个很被注重的节日。就这样而已吗？当然不是！还有。。。还有。。。也就是本人傻大姐又大一岁的日子咯。嘻嘻！今年，可真够热闹。接收到好多好多老友、好友，还有新朋友的祝福，手机里的存讯息空间简直是满满，真是开心、感动！

不止这样，一二二六还没到，朋友们就已经安排唱K啦，还到Lucky Star享用咸蛋螃蟹、烧鸭等等。。。还有一个非常健康的Carrot Cheese Cake，美味可口，yummy yummy！

圣诞节前夕，槟岛好友恰好来吉隆坡休闲游玩，也没忘了和我庆祝一番。加上一个圣诞Ginger Cake，够COOL，好有气派哦！

一二二六当天，我是如何奖赏自己呢？当然是赐予自己美丽的一天咯。嘻嘻。。。除了facial，还有 milk bath加上 shiatsu massage。哇，真的是很舒服哦！当然，也没忘了回家和家人聚餐，没有他们，也就没有今天的我，很重要的！谢谢爸爸妈妈！

故事还没完咧。一二三零还沾了Caryn的福，再次在KL Lookout Point狂欢庆祝一番。这一天可是过瘾！过什么瘾呢？过足明星瘾咯！Caryn算过了，一共有九架相机，九个摄影师在那儿“嘁嚓”、“嘁嚓”捕捉了属于Caryn和我幸福的一刻（别想歪，我是指我们一起吹蜡烛、切蛋糕的一刻 :P）我终于可以尝到了明星歌星们面对镜头时是有多么辛苦的！

嗯，谢谢你们，我的朋友！没有你们，也就没有这一些美丽的回忆！真的好幸福！这一刻，不止是属于我的，它也属于你们的！

Muakssss。。。lap you all x 10000000000。。。

二零零七年花絮之Merdeka Millennium Endurance

2007-12-11T23:20:00.000+08:00

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”

2007-12-10T22:14:00.000+08:00

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)

2007-12-04T22:59:00.000+08:00

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!!

2007-11-22T22:53:00.000+08:00

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!

2007-11-20T23:39:00.000+08:00

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！

2007-11-12T09:16:00.000+08:00

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

2007-10-18T21:45:00.000+08:00

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...

2007-10-08T22:05:00.000+08:00

"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!!

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

2007-09-24T23:07:00.000+08:00

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)

2007-09-03T23:36:00.000+08:00

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

2007-08-25T00:40:00.000+08:00

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

2007-08-20T15:58:00.000+08:00

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。。。

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。
