Can I hold your hand?

Chai Yee
again prompted me to post this :p
Me referring to her 'anything unusual' post .. hehe
We both want to hold the same hand :p :D
can consider something common also hor? :p

common yet uncommon

While Chai Yee found something common in our Melaka trip this time round, me found something uncommon (as well as common).

Going down the stairs is something common yet the ways we use to go down stairs is something uncommon =)

Analyze the way we go down the same stairs. I noticed females & males go down differently but someone(someone) proves me wrong ;p

Some say the way we go down stairs reflect our risk taking elements...

so, how do you usually go down the stairs? =)

Dear Guan Yin Liang Liang

Please allow me to have the strength to carry on.. and may I seek your blessings for my loved ones.
May I seek for your forgiveness and guidance in my life and of those around me...

There's always one for you =)

There’s always one for you =)
no more excuses for not exercising ;p

Aerobics for healthy gums
Taichi for stress
Walking to ease depression
Swimming for PMS
Pilates for back pain
Yoga for headaches
Running to ease joint & muscle pain

Melaka trip ... two troupe leader is missing from the picture. Guess they are busy driving their tankers to come pick us :p

If I ever ....

I've just returned from a career development workshop. To be honest, nothing there excite me. Seeing the enthusiasm of the fresh grad sitting next to me is like seeing myself so many many years back... hoping to outshine a little and land myself in a great job.
Now that I discover all GREAT jobs they are refering to are mere jobs where we slaught our head off in order to earn a living.

Someone please tell me that it's still worth climbing the corporate ladder. Tell me that they are things which I can look forward to when I reach a higher level besides better money.

Talking about the fresh grad that was sitting beside me, she's a bright and outstanding girl.
Very firm and convincing when she speaks. It was later that I found out she's the best student, head prefect of her school, organised a fun fair like charity event that collected RM60k for her school, won Pelajar Wakil Tokoh Kepimpinan for the school district. I found out that her family is treated like VIP by PIBG (Parents' Association) of the school.

I felt small in comparison but I didn't regret because that's not what I want.
She took Marketing Multimedia at Multimedia University.
I asked her what's her dream job as part of the exercise for the workshop, she told me she doesn't like sales but like presenting marketing proposals to corporate clients. However she didn't know how she ended up in a call centre.
I assured & encouraged her that she's still young and can work towards her goals. Although I may not be in the right position to give this kind of advice, I wanted very much for her to know that sometimes we may take a little bit of deviations to reach our destinations.
And that the grass may not be green all the time, it may dried off before growing greener after a downpour.

恋上一个人

This is one of my all-time favourite song. Have been listening to it since childhood at my babysitter's home. One of the first few mandarin songs that I learnt to sing.
Previously it was just memorising the pronunciation but now I come to realise it has beautiful lyrics too.
Radio played this song on one fine day and it sort of relive my past memories.
The singer 游鸿明 has quite a number of nice songs.

恋上一个人
歌手：游鸿明 专辑：恋上一个人 词 曲:游鸿明

恋上一个人
就容易失了神
曾经为爱流的泪
乾了又为爱心疼
我的痴
我的真
要给多少才完整
只怕你不懂
我这样的人
非要等到爱远走
分两头才知道多舍不你走
留在午夜梦回醉
掏了心伤心对自己说
非要等到爱远走分两头
才知道谁都怕寂寞
一直有句话要说
你是我今生今世的守候

Melaka – historical moments at historical city

Hari ini dalam sejarah – 18/03/07

Beribu-ribu tahun selepas masihi, tatkala pagi menjelang, dikisahkan 3 pahlawan bermain UNO (sejenis pertempuran menggunakan kad berwarna pada zaman itu) di ruang tamu rumah tamu.
Sebaik sahaja permainan bermula, Si Laksamana Andia sudah semakin dekat menewaskan kedua dua lawan negara jiran Laksamana Chai & Panglima Su.
Sayangnya, belia terlupa mengucapkan rangkai kata rahsia “UNO” yang membolehkan beliau menakluk dan menewas lawannya. Beliau ditangkap dan terpaksa menanggung akibatnya.

Dalam pertempuran berikutnya, Si Laksamana Andia dengan gagahnya mengharungi segala cabaran sehingga peringkat akhir. Laksamana Chai & Panglima Su beranggapan Si Laksamana Andia yang bijaksana tidak akan mengulangi ketidaksempurnaan dalam pertempuran sebelumnya. Namun di saat genting sebegini, Si Laksamana Andia masih tidak beringat-ingat agar mengucapkan rangkai kata kemenangan ‘UNO’.

Dengan semangat berkobar-kobar untuk menang, Si Laksamana Andia tiba-tiba mendapati bahawa strategi peperangan yang digunakannya tidak berkenaan dengan undang undang pertempuran.
Namun, sebagai Laksamana terunggul di negara beliau, Si Laksamana Andia tidak pernah berputus asa & bertekad untuk menewaskan pihak lawannya.

Si Laksamana Andia telah mencipta sejarah. Beliau telah mengulangi sejarahnya sebanyak 8 kali dalam 3 pertempuran.
Beliau menang pada akhirnya kerana Laksamana Chai & Panglima Su terlalu asyik ketawa terbahak bahak sehingga lupa diri.

Ps. Parameswara, Hang Tuah, Puteri Hang Li Po dan Laksamana Cheng Ho turut mengakui kehandalan Si Laksamana Andia dan bersetuju menganugerahi beliau dengan gelaran ‘sap ha sap ha’ :p

两只恋人

两只恋人

歌手：曹格 专辑：superman
曲:曹格 词:徐世珍 编曲:涂惠源 吉他:倪方来

傻傻两个人
许过一个愿
当时星星眨着
眼看起来并不远

为你长翅飞
为你被风吹
请你千万要等我
带幸福来给你的那一天

春天散步夏天看海秋天数落叶
(我们)一直没有烦恼
一直没有争吵
让每天像糖一样甜

冬天飘雪我是棉被温暖你的夜
一直在你身边
一直爱到永远
你就负责靠着我的肩

贴着你的脸
拍一张照片
世界是很复杂的
要靠我近一点但

愿你每天
幸福又安全
两只恋人手牵手
谁也不用再跑给谁去追

Like this song for its creativity.
Remember the song we always sing while small (maybe in kindergarten) about 2 tigers ... one without eyes, one without tail?
This is a song with a chorus (highlighted portions) same as the kiddie song, it's nice because it bring familiarity to us.
If you have the chance to listen to the song, you'll find yourself singing the chorus or at least you'll hum... I bet :p

W.A.T

W.A.T

How does it feel when you love someone yet the someone loves someone else?
At many times,
you may think you are the victim
The someone you love may think he/she is the victim
The one that the someone you love loves may think he/she is the victim.

Think of it this way,
What if someone loves you but the one you love is another person?
OR
What if the one you loves is also loved by someone else?

The point is ‘Loving someone is never a sin’.
At least we know we are all capable of loving.
As the Chinese saying goes : whatever is yours, is yours.

Your say?

Waking up to colourful toothbrushes is a wonderful thing.
This is where I brush my teeth every morning and night (provided I didn't fall asleep on the bed straightaway :p )
Supposed to go shop but I woke up earlier than expected. Something unusual as I usually need to 'drag myself out of bed' :p

This is taken from a magazine.

I like the way those colours overlap to produce different hues.

At yam char session just now, someone say the photo of cup arrangement very nice.

I thought my friend was refering to this. I got a shock..how come not yet pose, he already know??? :p

Walk for Health, don't let health walk away

In the last hour of "San Pak" 8th of March International Women Day, would just like to nudge women especially you (yes, you lady) to appreciate our privileges as women.

Being a women is not easy, (neither is being men easy) we aspire to be successful in life ... being a good daughter, good sister, good girlfriend, good wife, good mother, good grandma, good provider for the family...

In our pursuit, we may overlook and compromise one of the most important element, our wellbeing and those of our loved ones.

Thus make today the day ... not to let health walk away.

" Tangan yang menghayun buaian mampu mengoncang dunia"

This set of colourful forks was bought for my shop for RM2 at Midah pasar malam. However, I can't stop myself from opening the packaging and experiment with the forks :) let's just hope my partners doesn't see what I'm doing with the forks "p

Colours play important roles in our lives. It come from the same source, yet when viewed from different perspective, produces different degree of colours.
Yet when we put all colours together, we get white. Isn't it amazing?

What would life be if all we see is black & white?

Me tend to be attracted by colourful things.
During my schools days, my book is full of colours because I can only remember well with them :)

So to show appreciation for our colourful lives :) would like to share a few colourful pics :)
If you have any colourful pics that you may want to share, feel free to email to me :)

I've always love fireworks. They are wonderful creations :) and they never ceased to amaze me :)

for roosters

Yesterday was Chap Goh Meh .. literally translated from Hokkien as the 15th night.

It also marks the end of Chinese New Year celebrations.

Chap Goh Meh is also Chinese Valentine's Day. On this night, unattached ladies to throw 'kam' a.k.a mandarin oranges into the sea, rivers or lakes, hoping the other half will appear.

I've been to one of such occasion at Taman Tasik Permaisuri with a group of close friends.

Stop blinking ^^! hehe .. yah, I've been there and even thought of throwing 'kams' :p

To begin the year, a peek into what the piggy year offer to us roosters :D

Personality
Dramatic but a reputable person who works systematically Hardworking, resourceful, talented and confident.

Vivacious and popular socially, but may have a tendency to brag insensitively.

Outspoken and loves to attract attention. Always take good care of their family and can handle money well.

The Rooster, or Chicken as he is called, is the Don Quixote of the Chinese cycle. The dauntless hero who must look to the earth to survive, he is the most misunderstood and eccentric of all the signs. outwardly, he is the epitome of self-assurance and aggression, but at heart he could be conservative and old-fashioned.

The Rooster-born, especially the men, will be attractive, even dashingly handsome. The princely fowl is radiant and proud of his fine feathers and has an impressive carriage. You don't find any roosters slouching; they strut about with dignity. Even the shyest member of the Rooster family will cut a neat, trim figure and maintain a special bearing wherever he goes.

There are two distinct type of Roosters.

The rapid-firing, extremely talkative ones and the deadly solemn observer types with the X-ray vision. both are equally hard to deal with.

The Rooster has many outstanding qualities to crow about. He is sharp, neat, precise, organized, decisive, upright, alert, and most direct. He can also be critical to the point of brutality. Don't ever ask him his frank, candid opinion--you may never recover from his comments.
He loves to argue and debate, showing how knowledgeable and smart he is, some- times with little regard of the feelings of others. But when his feathers are ruffled in return, he is insufferable. He isn't cut out to be a diplomat. Situations regarding tact, delicacy and discretion will cramp his style. His way is to go about trying to convert everyone to his way of thinking with a missionary zeal. He shines when he is the center of attraction.
Tremendously imposing as a personality, he could well pursue any career that exposes him to the public eye.

The Rooster likes: Hard works, Fresh Air, Neat but Casual, Challenges, Nature and Control.
The Rooster dislikes: Laziness, Weakness, Technology, Illness, Practical Jokes and politics

Our luck in 2007

Overall Forecast

Everything seems to go against you. The environment will not be to your favour. Beside, you will also be troubled by your health or family. Black as the situation looks for you, and beware of outdoor safety. Optimize your social network and social activities. A careful living would make you healthy.

Career

You will not have a most happy and prosperous career under the influence of much inference, but good relation and hard work can make it possible to land on your feet. Your luck is so unstable that new ideas, such as starting a business or changing jobs, should be taken into consideration. Without full preparations, you would suffer loss even in golden time.

Love

A characteristic of Rooster this year is your numerous in love life. Arguments over different views with your family will bring tensions. There may be separations between couples or lovers, and you should keep your head and tolerant to enhance communication and understanding. Participate in a number of social whirls to make more friends. Heighten your vigilance, or you would into a trap. You will enjoy a routine family life by sharing the feelings of your family members.

Wealth Your wealth luck is average. Budget and management will be keys for this year since spending increases but not on the revenue. These measures should be taken as quickly as possible so that you could make preparation mentally and physically. There will be various temptations from investment, but your pragmatic on your decision-making before plunging into the market blindly. Your problems on capital turnover will be resolved miraculously

BABEL

BABEL ....
one of oscar nomination for best movie was an interesting watch (to me) although the person sitting next to me was half asleep :p

It reflected many realities in life. It reflected the many faces of human.
After watching the movie, I realised that ' jia jia you ben nan nian de jing ' literally translated as every family has their own problems.
And that as a part of the world community, each and every of our actions will have impact on ourselves as well as others.

I like the way the stories from different parts of the world are linked effortlessly by an incident that happen ... beginning with the naive'ness of 2 kids.

The world isn't a perfect place but we know our little effort can make it a better place for all :)

Dance

I used to dance to music and songs in my home living room when no one is at home or when everyone is fast asleep.
It’s when I relax myself.
It’s also when I learnt to sing all those Chinese songs.

However, with my hectic life these days, I hardly have the time or energy to dance to the music anymore. The time I have left was spent sleeping.
The second excuse I gave myself was the hi-fi set in my living room is no longer working thus I’m unable to dance to music.
Oh I missed mentioning, those were the time when I didn’t have to work on weekends, didn’t have to take care so much of household matters, wasn’t in a relationship, has nothing better to do :)

Lately, I miss dancing freely to the music all again all alone ... letting my body flow with the melody. Doing somersault when I feel like it.
No worry, I’m going to do it again… very soon :D wee……
