Status Update

If momentarily I couldn't recall your name, does that mean I'm nearly healed?

If you suddenly pops into my mind and I can easily dismiss the thought/memory, does that mean I'm nearly healed?

But the sight of you still reminds me that I hate your guts. Hahaha...

A self-toast to my progress.

I'm eagerly waiting for the day when I forgive myself for being a fool. Cheers.

365 Songs: Song #8

Finally a happy song. Haha.. Overheard this on the radio, and like it. Actually there's a MV for it, but as usual, Fish Leong's MV are interwoven with story/dialogues inside, and I think that's actually a distraction. So here's the song-only version.

明明很爱你 [míng míng hěn ài nǐ] - Fish Leong & Victor Wong

365 Songs: Song #4

Singing for lonely souls. The lyrics are simple and repetitive, yet you can feel the sadness mixed with just that tiny little bit of hopefulness.


為你的寂寞唱歌 [wèi nǐ de jìmò chànggē]  - Jia Jia

365 Songs: Song #3

This song is by A-mei. Apparently someone wrote an English version of this song, with different lyrics of course. It's called She's Gone. Well, the English one is not bad, but I'm more in tune with this one: 解脱 (Relief). Enjoy :)

解脱 [Jiětuō]

Your body knows you best

When you ate something bad, your body will make you vomit it out. 
When you touched something that burns, your body will jerk away. 
When you are exhausted, your body will make you drowsy. 
When you encounter danger, your body will prepare you for fight or flight.

365 Songs: Song #2

I guess I should explain a bit more about the songs that I will share here. Alright, the previous song (Song #1) original singer is not Jacky Cheung. I just like his version better. Haha.. The title translates to "love me then don't leave me". I like its catchy chorus.

Song #2 would be Jay Chou's 星晴 [xīng qíng]. The title is some sort of a word play. A direct translation on each of the words would be "star clear" or more grammatically correct, "clear star". But its pronunciation is similar to "mood" (心情 [xīn qíng]). 

星晴 [xīng qíng]


365 Songs: Song #1

New project!

A song a day.

Since I listen to music almost everyday, I'll pick one that I like best on that day and share with you. :)

I'm a bit of the oldies fans. Hahaha.. So please bear with me. Oldies are gold! Woot!


爱我别走 [Ài wǒ bié zǒu] - by Jacky Cheung

Life is a Masquerade

Mask.

Everyone have at least one.

Is it bad to hide your true self behind masks?

10 Things I Hate About You

1. You accuse me of being a workaholic while you go off working during weekends.
2. You are more fussy about your hair than I am with mine.
3. You get upset when I pay for the meal.

The Ride of your Life

Riding the train to work one day got me thinking, life is like a train. Well, a train that keeps on going and no turning back. A one-way train perhaps? Haha..
  • If you miss a station, then that's it.
  • At each station, people come in or go out.
  • To reach a particular station, you have several routes to choose from.
  • Each station has different scenery or environment.
  • The speed is constant.
How it mirrors life:
  • Missed opportunities and chances.
  • You meet new people and you say goodbye to some at various stages of your life.
  • To achieve your goals, usually there are more than one way to do it. (Even if you have yet found your options at the moment)
  • At each stages of your life, your view changes. The way you look at things is different.
  • Time passes no matter what.
Hmm.. What do you think?

I'm back?

Wow. It's been 4 years since I've wrote something here. That long, huh? I didn't notice... Guess life takes up your focus unknowingly, and BAM! It's XX years already.

Anyway, I'm back! (I think? Haha..) Looking back at the old blog, I've changed quite a bit. Example, my old wishlist.    
  • Try a Japanese buffet - Tried it. More than once. Hehe..
  • More books to read - My books are now chasing up on me.
  • Visit Japan - Ohaiyo.
  • Get a boyfriend - Oh. This.
Hmm. The last one. Well, I guess there is no beating around the bush about this. I have to confess, I have hidden agenda of coming back to here again. I've been controlling this anger that grows whenever my idle brain strays to the memories of my ex. I guess I'm still stuck at the anger phase of a break-up. I know, I need time. But I think what I need most is, an outlet to detox my brain/memories. I need to voice all that anger out from my heart. And I thought of here.

I know no one want to hear me whine or cry or rage, I'm sorry. I'll try to keep it light and short, hopefully. I'm not trying to be an expert in moving on or in love. Heck, are there such people out there? I'm just trying to find back the summer that I lost when my heart was stamped on.

I think that's quite enough melodrama for the day. Haha.. Til the next post, keep your chin up and smile!

By the way, this is the 100th post published. Maybe I should celebrate with a chocolate bar or something. Hahaha..

P.S. Here is a screenshot of the old blog in case you have forgotten how it looks like. Hehe..

Arh! Where is the fella who is shooting me???

*Bang bang bang, chik chak, bang bang bang*

Her shooting skills sucks. Yeah, she knows that. But since this is a rare chance to play with her cousin (the last time they played together, was like more than 10 years ago), she won't give up the chance. She laughs when she waste so many ammo on one target. She admires the skills that her cousin has. She goes gaga over the gaming consoles that he has.

After so many years, one thing has not changed. She still envies her cousins. Not the ugly, competitive type of jealousy, just the oh-i-wish-i-have-that-too envy. When they were young, she loves to play at their house because they got all the cool playthings. Lego (which was popular during her childhood), those Nintendo gameboys, video games, and a large collection of comics. She wondered if that is partly the reason why she is more into gadgets and computer than cosmetics and fashion. She rolls her eyes, she's been trying to update her wardrobe and looks lately, bit by bit, but she still feels like a noob in that department.

After they all have grown up now, she thinks they still have the cool playthings. Haha. It's not that she couldn't afford it, she guessed it's just not her nature to buy them. Oh, she likes to play them, of course, but it just feels weird when she imagine herself owning them. One main point is, she doesn't have anyone else to play with her. So when she tagged along to visit her aunty, her inner child was bouncing with joy when one of her cousins was at home AND invited her to play. Hahahaha... Just like the old times. Ah, how much she misses that. She wonders what would it be like 10 years from now on, could they still play together? Hahaha....

Random thoughts, different POV

She closed the book, feeling a bit disappointed with the ending. But not disappointed enough to slam the book on the table, her love of books is more than that. Still, her mind is reeling from the book she just finished. Technically, the ending is a happy one, but she thinks stuff like movies and books is a subjective issue. Not everybody is going to love a particular book or movie the same way she does. And vice versa.

And she thinks the ending sucks, despite her logical mind keep saying in her head that it is the most realistic ending. Although she is a romantic deep in her heart, her mind dominates her heart. Maybe that is why she still haven't found her love. Or will she ever find it. Because she thinks she is getting more and more cynical about the whole thing called love. Take the book for example, it's about a girl who find herself falling in love with her boss, the super cool rock god. The bad boy. But it ends with the girl chose his best friend instead of him. The good boy. She doesn't understand it. The girl said she loves the bad boy, but she chose the good boy. No, no, she doesn't have any prejudice against the good boy, but... She feels that it is ok if the girl didn't choose the bad boy, but she rather prefer that the story ends with the girl gets better and independent, instead of just go and be with the good boy. Because she wonders if the girl really loves the good boy or not.

Her mind totally understand the girl in the story. Because the girl chose realistically. What future does she have with a rock star who drinks, do drugs and sex with all those girls compared with his best friend who is more stable, have same interests as her, and she feels secure with him. It is a battle between the romantic heart and the logical mind.

I guess she should have read the ending first before she buy the book. Haha. So, she closed the book and reached for a different one, which surely guarantees an ending that she will be satisfied with. Her brother is right, why do you need the ending if it is possible that you would not like it? Just imagine your own ending that will satisfy you and then end of story. But, she doesn't see book-reading that way. She rather follows the book even if the ending disappoints her. She loves being absorbed into the world of a book.

Her mind couldn't stop thinking about the ending. She wonders, what if she had to make a decision like that someday. Who would she choose? The bad boy or the good boy? Or what if she met the good boy, should she settle straight away or leave him and hang on to that ridiculous wish that her bad boy or frog prince will come to her one day? She snorts, that day could be when she is way past the "deadline". She hates the deadline. 30. Distractedly, she switched on the TV and voila, the channel is showing Dalja's Spring, one of her favourite K-drama. The heroine is 33 years old and now only she found her man, the handsome hero (fan-girl sigh) who is by the way 6 years younger than her. She smiled, if only she can be like her...

PS. ..ONLY IF she haven't found her other half before turning 33 like the heroine.

Closing of 2009

OK, I've been neglecting the blog again for the gazilion time. Lol. And I revert back to words instead of drawings in this post. Even though I find it interesting to draw, I'm just a procrastinator through and through. Haha.. The drawing takes a bit of time. And ideas, of what and how to draw. Haha.. Maybe I'll continue with it next year. Lol. So, right now, let me recap what I can about what I did in 2009.

It's the end of the year, time flew so quickly and yet so slowly (sometimes, especially in the office). Haha.. I've been back at KL for more than half a year, gained unwanted weight, watched a few movies, shopped a few times, yada yada yada, the usual stuff. So unproductive. Eat, sleep, play, shit. Haha. Let's see the first timer activities. Got a job! Permanent, I hope, at least for the next few months on the road. Hehe. And hope that I can make it through the confirmation. *finger crossed*

I got a new external hard disk! Bwahaha... time to back up and wash up my hubby. Um, what else. I went to a book warehouse sale!! whoohoo!! Though, I didn't find the books that I wanted. Nonetheless, I grabbed some. It's so cheap! No wonder the place was packed. Had to queue to enter also. -_-"

I went to Klang just for bak kut teh. Yea, it's kinda hardly worth mentioning. Lol. But is the first time I ventured so far just for food. Went cycling at Putrajaya (finally). Oh, I went to China for the first time. Haha. And also Kuching. Hopefully next year the list will include HK. Haha.. Oh yes, and I graduated. XD LOL. At last.

On an unrelated note, HW moved to a house near my area! Woohoo! Hehe.. Not only that I get to carpool, I can hang out with her more easily now. Kekekeke...

PS. Resolutions for next year? Er, same like this year? Hahahaha...

What the...

Before you read any further, you might be interested to read back on the nightmare I am referring to, here. As you might notice, it has been 2 years since that particular nightmare. And what happened on the other day was...







*snap back to reality*







Yes, my life = joke * joke. I guess some of you might be wondering why I decline the "offer". Well, sorry, I'm just not that type to do that stuff. I would probably die from the embarrassment before I can finish saying "Hello". Plus, I'm not a conversation-person. I am more of the monosyllabic-answer person. If he is the same, then we'll listen to flies flying around us. Hahaha... Though, this 'incident', triggered a bunch of discussions wit M&D about having another half. And some issues, I found it to be interesting, maybe I'll debate about it in future posts. Eg. Women past the three-0, hard to find partner. Because, look old already. See what I mean about debatable. Haha... Til then, I continue my not-so-funny-to-me life...

Nightmare come true!!





I'm shocked until speechless. All I can say is nightmare coming true. Reveal more later. X_X

Outdated










Looks like I'm even more outdated than I thought I am about kitchen appliances. They have evolved like the computers. There is no need to push hard to get water out (the old method). Just press the button (the high-tech method). Hahahaha... Another embarrassing moment achieved. Lol. Luckily one of my colleague saw me, or I'll forever wonder why I am the only one who couldn't get hot water out from the boiler. Hahaha.. I have learned an easier way to make my tea now. Hahaha...
