Nuffnang

I didn't log in to Nuffnang for at least a year. The shortcut key has been "sitting" on my firefox browser for months and years and today I decided to click it for once. You know I blog because this is a small corner where I do my reflections or share with my friends my latest happenings or "sufferings", or even some random thoughts and feelings. As I am not someone who are loud by nature or someone who is vocal, I prefer to express myself through written words. And Thinking about Being is the place. Haven't been into blogging recently. Mainly because I'm too tired with work and also sometimes some things I choose to keep them personal and private.

Well, actually these are not the main point of this entry.

The main point is.... this blog has earned $80.99. damn...Still not enough to buy my macbook pro, imac or even my lenovo desktop or laptop....lolx.

Shall share more on the laptop/desktop that I might consider getting, with suggestions/recommendations from Alvin.

Good News on Boxing Day

I was really glad to hear the news that you managed to pass your 1st paper that you spent so much time on revising (which you sms me and say you think you gonna flunk after you took the paper on that day) and managed to get a B+!!!! Thanks and appreciated for sharing this good news with me.

Though your overall GPA might have dropped, I still have this 6th sense and feeling that you will still do well in the next few semesters. Endure!

I know the journey is still long and you cannot foresee and foretell what will happen, just do your best! Anyhow, you know that I will be there for you, if you need.

I always have this faith and trust in you that you will do well in the end. =)

Happy Boxing Day and Merry Christmas!

Merry Xmas!

I saw the MAN!

I went down to GameFest just now. So coincidently I saw HIM! But don't know what comes into me. I got so nervous and "ran" away.

I wanted to go in front of him and say 'hi' but don't know why I got so nervous .....

Texted him that I saw him, didn't get a reply.

Regretted that I didn't say 'hi' to him. Why am I so timid? When will I get to see him again?

Interesting man

Sometimes it is interesting to see an outwardly masculine man whining. Glad to be there for this man during his assignments and exam period.

Happy to be able to chat with him for so many days without any bickering or argruments.

Wanted to stay up with him to study with him... but was too tired. Going to bed already. Night.

Hope he can figure out a good solution.

Uncertainty

Sigh...

Sometimes I feel so insecure. Perhaps there is so much uncertainties in life.

Sometimes I get lost in my own thoughts and feelings.... thinking what's for me in life.

Thinking.... what do I really want.

I used to be super enthu, involving in community services, etc. But somehow, it comes to a point in my life where I stop to think. I did so many things for the community, how about my own life? My life doesn't seems much exciting either. Not much accomplishments to begin with as compared to so many of my peers.

Sometimes I thought when things are getting better and in it's best, it just starts crashing down again.

Sometimes I just hate the uncertainty and insecurity. I know that's not me. But I just can't helped it.

Love the way you lie

Shopping Spree

It has been so long since I went for shopping with my colleague after work. Last Thursday, I bought quite a few items which added up to $130+.

As my facial cleanser has finished, I decided to replenish my "stock" from Face Shop. Instead of getting just the cleanser, I got myself 2 more items - 10 Eye Masks and a cellulite body gel. It adds up to around $100. With that, I got myself a free tote bag as well but it was out of stock.

  Cellulite Body Gel, Eye Masks and Face Cleanser

In addition, I got myself a new work pants. I have always wanted to get a new pants because the ones that I am wearing are all too big for me. It would have already fallen off if not for my hip. This is my new pants in relation to the old ones:

With the old pants behind

See the big difference?

See the pants size? From 42 to 38 (29" - 27"). Drop 2 jeans size.

Tried and can actually wear 36 (26") too ^_^
But guess 38 would be better since I need to move around and to be in different position

As you guys know I had just rebonded my hair too. Of course I must not neglect my hair care. I got myself a hair mask!

That's about all for the spree on last Thursday. In the end, we only went home after 10pm. I also tried a top from Uniquo and I like it! But it was too big. They only come in medium and large sizes. I needed a small.

My Second shopping Spree:

Yesterday, after my facial, I had another shopping spree. I got myself a Bio-essence Anti-dark circles essence, a body shop body gel, and a bust firming cream. lolx.

Hopefully this can help my chronic dark circles

Not sure if it works, just try for fun =P

The stuff I've bought for the past 3 days minus the pants:

And I am gonna be broke. So, no more spending on beauty care products for at least 2 months. =X

And I also collected my tote bag from faceshop:

终于瘦下来了！

今天量了体重， 49.8 公斤。我希望它再也别增加。在这个月里，它很少超过 50 公斤。这可是蛮标准的。 ＢＭＩ　是　２０.７。这可是我从中学以来最轻的体重。

这一两年来，我瘦了许多。　没有什么特地去减肥。　可能生活环境的变化让我瘦了下来。　连我三年前开始工作时买的长裤都宽松了很多。好像掉了三个尺码！(will post up some photos to I have the time)

可能我对自己的意识(ａｗａｒｅｎｅｓｓ)和期望(ｅｘｐｅｃｔａｔｉｏｎｓ)提高了。或许也可能因为别人的眼光间接让我对外表的注重。也可能因为工作范围有些改变，需要耗费的体力比两年前还要多。

总而言之，能瘦下来又不许要负多少金钱去减肥，也不成是件好事。。。　。。。

Tioman Trip Day 1 - Super backdated post

I went to Tioman with Juat and her friend Fizah on 7 - 9 May 2010. We had to meet at beach road at 6am. I was actually quite tired because I only slept at 3+am and woke up at 5+am. I was helping SOMEONE with his "mindmaps". But well, I'm not grumbling about it. (I think) he is quite appreciative about it, while I'm smsing him..... he asked me "go sleep in your bus".. but also because I mentioned something to him... lolx.


Anyway, it was a nice trip. It's my 4th leisure trip overseas. 1st was back in Taiwan in 2005 with all gals group. 2nd was the trip to BKK with SY. And 3rd was the last min trip to Kluang with juat. And 4th was this trip. I so needed another trip overseas now.....

Following were the fun, joy and food... ....

This is me, while waiting for the bus to start driving.....

Finally there is a stop for breakfast. The stopover coffee shop:

And I spotted a cat .... small and weak....

And how can I miss drinking some coffee? Coffee with coffee powder in the packet:

And the scene outside is quite nice that Juat suggested that I took a photo with it as the background:

Soon after that, we left for the jetty. The bus first dropped of some passengers at one of the jetty and followed by us at the Tanjung Gemuk Jetty, which Gemuk actually means FAT in Malay.Laughs.

Out through the windows, on the way to Tioman, I spotted this boat. It just reminded me of SY aka Alvin:

The M'sia Coast Guard/Navy

Finally we were reaching....... 

Reached.... .....

 Nice Corals

Nice view from the jetty

A pose at the jetty

We went to check-in upon reaching the place. After which, we went for some brunch as we were all very hungry.

Ice-Kachang with milo powder

Ramly burger

Initially wanted to try the pattaya rice that Alvin suggested, but couldn't find. So, just go to settle for the burger.

After eating, Juat and Fizah brought me for a trial snorkeling experience at the nearby beach and I put on my bikini for the first time!! I looked not bad in it! But think I'm not going to post them here.

Maybe just the ones with my life jacket on.....

Me, with the gears on

Me, with Fizah

Can you see how hot was the sun?

After the trial session, I became more water confident. Soon, the sun was setting..... 

And it was time for wash-up and dinner... ...

It was a 5 dishes Chinese dinner and let the photos do the talking:

This was us, taken before we consumed our dinner:

Me, with the food!

A nice cup of coffee to end our dinner

The dinner was so full that we decided to take a walk to the jetty... ...

P.S: That's all for day 1 at the moment. Day 2 and 3 will be post up soon. And you can go to my facebook to look at more photos if you are interested.

MIA

I know I have been missing-in-action for long. Lost motivation to blog for the past few months. Anyway, just some updates on my life.

I went to Tioman with Juat and her friend. It was a short getaway. I tried snorkeling for the first time in my life. Although I am a non-swimmer, it was a nice experience. Definitely hoping for more overseas trip to relax. It is depressing to see that my life is just work and home. Will post up some of the photos here soon. I hope.

Went to Navy Open House on 23 May. It was a very very hot day. Kudos to Alvin and other Navy personnels for withstanding the heat, esp. those under the SUN. It was a good experience to see what kind of life he used to lead (similar) and of course, it was great seeing him. *smile*

Attended my JC classmate's wedding last weekends. Met some of my classmates and Physics Tutor, Mr Sum. He seemed that he has not aged at all. 4 out of 7 girls attended. 2, including the bride are married. I guess this is the age where you see all your friends are getting married and people are asking when is my turn, "God knows!" Even I wish I had the answer.

But I got to agree with what Mr Sum said that day. I remembered him saying during the wedding that "you don't get married for the sake of getting married. you have to live with the person for life leh. Got to find someone that you can click......." He also mentioned that of course he does feels lonely (can't remember if that was the word he used)... something that even friends cannot replace, which I got to agree. Well, he is 37 y.o., a super good dancer, quite good looking. Anyone wants to know him, I can intro. lolx.

Another thing that keeps me wondering is that, 2/4 of my classmates are doing well in their careers. One being a software engineer in ST Electronic and another has sort of her own company being consultant to ready-to-be brides and grooms in terms of wedding planning. I think even the bride is in some government company/ministry. And mine? Pathetically drawing peanuts.

Haha.... there has been so many thoughts of what I can do, with few others. But, we seems to procrastinate. Maybe, we are too comfortable. But just wait. I know I can do it BIG if I want to. Just waiting for the right opportunity.

Other areas in my life..... sigh.... don't ask me. I'm just as puzzled.

Anyway, look out for more updates on my tioman trip, Navy Open House and Laylan's wedding.

Feels appreciated

" I know you are trying.... "


Thank you. You know what? This phrase makes me feels appreciated for what I have done so far. *smile*

Quiz: 你的爱情因何被分手

Results:

类型：不见黄河心不死
分手原因：被自己分手
实际上，对于感情你是个缺乏信心的人，即使你表现得强势而自信，但潜意识里一直隐藏着不安。你不相信没有理由的爱，即便是与父母之间也不可能如 此，遑论爱情。在这种心理上你的性格隐隐总有些逆反，一个人也许本来你没有那么喜欢，但遭遇反对劝阻时很可能你偏要继续发展，所谓没有压力便没有动力。一 方面你的理智告诉你怎样才更好，一方面你的本性蠢蠢欲动不让你撞一把南墙就不死心。最好的方法是随你去，自然而然的你就会淡了。

四个字：哭笑不得。。。。

Quiz: 你需要怎样一个恋人

Quiz result:

自己喜欢的人
你是一个习惯了追求的人，无论是感情也好，还是其他的事业也好，你总是喜欢站在强者和主动的那一面，憎恨被别人照顾、被人呵护，尤其是恋人，这样会让你有一种恋情不平衡的错觉，所以爱你的你觉得没有挑战性，只有你真正喜欢看得上眼的人你才会想和他在一起


Well, I guess this is at least 90% true..... shucks.

你多容易被爱情愚弄

Did a quiz here: http://astro.sina.com.cn/t/2010-04-01/140667045.shtml

And this is my results. Dammit. *speechless*

【被爱情愚弄指数】●●●●●五星，身陷囹圄
【关键词】珍惜自我
你有这世界上最轻盈的灵魂，周围的人都觉得你是落入凡间的精灵，可是无情的岁月让我们都挡不住会苍老的心。因为你骨子里相信爱情这种东西，期待 奇迹的心让你不乐意为你的恋情添加人工痕迹，所以，你经常被爱情愚弄。很多时候你也常常自我怀疑，然而怀疑主义只是让你放手，但是放弃思考并不等于得到问 题的答案。如果说海衣要给你任何的谏言，那就是希望你要学会珍惜你自身的价值。很多时候啊，因为对方觉得你不重要，他就会不对你好，甚至对你不好。他不是 故意的，但这就是我们愚蠢的人性。

Happy Birthday Alvin!!!

Hope you like the 'surprise' dinner just now.

Happy Birthday Alvin!

May you have a very good year ahead!

FULL OF LUCK, MONEY, FRIENDSHIP, HAPPINESS AND LOVE!
