on my office desk top

at a place where I spend around 8 hours or more per day .... I couldn't survive without colours (and motivation) ....
so this was what I have on my desk top (literally) for the past few weeks...
among them :

1. 2 kiddies apples .... one for my morning break .... one for tea break =D

2. 2 little elephants .... which I got from Bangkok Cathucak Market. I bought a packet for souvenirs for colleagues but 'kidnapped' these 2 for myself =p hehe
3. this pack of colourful paper clips which I got from Tesco for RM2 ... there were more colours actually but distributed some to my colleagues to add colours to their desk top (not that their desk top is dull but I just want to see more colours around) ... =p
If you noticed the little dictionary in the background ... I got it there with the intention to learn chinese but with the amount of work we have, I hardly have time to touch it what more read it.
4. Last but not least, a smiley on my eraser to remind me that every day should be a happy day...erase those worries away =)

I do have many plants on my desk top (currently 5 plants).... reason being, I thrive with them around and I love to see them grow =) Sometimes I don't blame people or bosses wondering whether I'm productively working or managing my plants =p I just play the song 'My Way'

dumplings

Dumpling ... one of my all-time favourite food ... especially those with 'mei tao' and 'fung lut' =D DELICIOUS ... it's time of the year again for dumping festival. Thank you very much for the dumplings.

potpouri of precious colleagues

to soothe ourselves before the re-structuring, we treated ourselves to foods & more foods and most importantly companionship.

this group of colleagues is easily one of the best group of colleagues in my working life so far ... the most fun & comfortable to be with, least judgemental & the least pretentious lot. All are very nice & humble people.

Eating, having fun & pouring our hearts' contents over dinner at Chilli's
drunk from having too many glasses of bottomless fruit juices =p

taken after a pot luck sumptous lunch (from right : Chua - spaghetti 'liu', June -longan laici agar agar, Lynn - spaghetti, Lily - herbal eggs, me, Yong - lots & lots of fruits, Siew Choo (vegetarian mee hoon & burger, Ya Li - helps with everything)

in the almost 2 months ...

Wishbone has been with us for almost 2 months =) We do get questions like how old is she .... which we do not actually know ... for she was abandoned and rescued and adopted.
Perhaps wishbone is about 3-4 months old.

This weekend we'll bring her for 2nd vaccination ... which we do not know how the much stronger wishbone will react. She's afraid of injections =p hehe
Her 1st vaccination experience was special (to me at least) because never before I experienced such a little helpless creature clinging so dearly to me ... the emotion was very real.

some random pics of wishbone with her antics =D

wishbone with jie jie slippers which has ever since became her chewing toy


biased wishbone with kor kor slippers which she never dare to touch at all what more bite


Comot wishbone after burying his precious bone in the garden =D

Eager wishbone when she sees you bringing her food
Wishbone & her favourite sleeping place .... the drain out of all the place =p
when she's not sleeping here

or HERE .... on my lap
This dog is really like her owner .... can sleep anywhere anytime anyhow =D

crazy about corn

I'm crazy about corn ... natural corn / corn in cup / corn in can .... everything also I sapu (just like wishbone) =D

I'm already half way through =)

I'm happy I'm already half way through ... if you asked me about the little sacrifices (maybe they are not even sacrifices) ... I feel sweet and I think they are for good if not better.
Initially I thought I had lose out on many things but then slowly & slowly I realised I was gaining so much more in return (yah, and that include weight as well ... hehe =p)
Also I thought I didn't get to enjoy the type of life others are enjoying ...carefree and full of excitement but I was so wrong as I'm enjoying my life now more than ever.
This could easily be one of the best part of my life...
if I were to choose again, I think I would still have chosen this same old path.
I love life ... I love lives ...

don't worry be happy =D

Currently, there are some restructuring at the organisation I work in. Everyone (well almost everyone is in a turmoil of emotions and miserabilities (newly coined by Su)
I too was initially one of them .... until I woke up one morning
I've reached the stage whereby people say "too many types of feelings / emotions until cannot feel anymore"

Essentially,
what's there to be worried about? life still goes on for me and my loved ones
I've better things to worry about than things which is beyond my control.
sometimes we spend too much time worrying and speculating till we don't know what's true and what's now ..... that we forgot what was the important thing to worry about.
life wouldn't be life if there's no worries
just don't let worry consume us ... it's just not worth it.

Korea .... the 'Seoul' of Asia

the partially sponsored trip ... else we wouldn't sampai hati to spend so much on a trip
the trip before wishbone came to us ... 'someone' promised to allow me take wishbone once we are home from this trip =D
the 1st time we experience cold weather ... considering the all year long hot and wet weather in Malaysia & neighbouring countries.
the 1st trip we joined people of all ages from all walks of life on a trip ... i've never felt so much of care from some strangers whom we just got to know.
but most importantly, being there with dear was the best thing ever ... of course, together with a nice little suprise =D

A little pics to share ... try not to ask me where's the place and which comes 1st ... I've horrible sense of directions =p


the world cup stadium when Seoul is the organiser in 2002.

the polar bear at Everland (a very big theme park - 5th biggest in the world) .... it is catching its food thrown by the zookeeper. most probably the only chance I've in life seeing a polar bear.

The spring garden in 'Everland' ... I could stay there for hours ... but alas I can't bring them home to plant here.

my buddy at Everland ... forgot what's his name liao

ice pellets ice cream ... a nice chill in the cold weather ... love the colours and the taste =D

lioner or tigon ... whatever they call it ... basically it's a cross breed or a lion and a tiger

the variety of drinks found in one of the supermarket in Korea ... they have thousands and thousands types of drinks for health and taste.
It wasn't spring yet when we were there, however we were lucky to meet some 'early bloomers' who showed off their beauty.

A scenic view of a stream coming from the 'tian di' (sky earth) water fall.

Another spectacular view of the stream coming from 'tian di' waterfall.

Jeju island ... a flower plantation at the road side leading to Hallasan (highland). Walking in there is like walking into a Windows wall paper =D
Hallasan ... the highest peak in Jeju Island. It's a high peak and if you reaches the top, you'll see the whole Jeju Island. If you walk downwards, it will lead to the clear blue sea.
A little regret I didn't get to climb to the top due to my condition.

Another Sakura tree by the road side where we purposely ask the bus driver to stop to allow us to take pics.
A cherry tree full of tiny little cherries ... we started picking some from the ground too. Me joining the aunties =p hehe

one of those Korean palace where this is the entertainment & leisure hall, whereby the olden days rulers drink and watches performances by lady dancers.

About the food, only 2 ways of cooking ... steamboat & BBQ
err...if you ask me, Malaysia food is still the best lah =D

this WEEKEND

this weekend, there are 2 things that I wished very much I could do
but I think I'll end up doing none.

1. I wished I could still celebrate mother's day with my mother ... but I wouldn't get another chance at all already.
For these past 1-2 years, mother's day has become a day I'm so afraid to talk about, so afraid to hear, so afraid to even think about it. I've to learn to accept gradually that not everyone will be fortunate to have their parents around and build a strong defense as not to show my own emotions.
If only I knew that that year's mother's day will be last I'll be able to celebrate with my mother, I would have given her everything I could... given her every ounce of love I have in me.
nevertheless, happy mother's day to all mothers !!!
You are all the world's greatest gift to us !!! God bless all mothers.

2. I wished I could join my friends for a trip to Siam Reap ... hopefully I'll get another chance to join for some other trips. I missed those times when we wake up wee hour in the morning, eat and travel together. Sometimes, I'm so excited that I don't really sleep the night before.
I think my buddies must be packing their stuffs, getting all ready-n-excited for the trip tomorrow. To all my buddies .... enjoy yourselves ya.
Last but not least, I'm sorry to 'someone' for 'dragging him into the water' too. If not because of me, he could have well join and visited one of the 7 wonder of the world.

However, whatever it is .... God sometimes may have some better plans for all of us.

we need more truth like this ...

as usual, being the 'very slow' me ...
I couldn't understand a thing when friends brought up Susan Boyle's name.

I was told to google for her name in youtube and I'll understand.
I didn't expect I'll shed tears listening to this lady singing and watching the video.
She just made everyone of us realised something ....
we need more truth like this ...
