Finding Me Again

This will be another junk post that I'm going to flood in my blog again. It's all about the change in me. I'm not sure what happen but I feel that I've change - to be negative and moody. Is this related to the hormone change in our body after delivery? Sighhh .. I've become easily angry, emotional and not logical at all. Sometimes, I feel like there's nothing in my life - empty. At work, it feels like very stagnant. Nothing hit me and I feel useless. At home, all my focus towards my girl. It seems like I miss the time where I have my own time. This morning, I saw a motivational remark from my friend - the 3 C's. Choice, Chance, Change. It is our choice to take the chance or we never change. It hit me. I know that I'm being all sorts of negative and its really very unhealthy. Sometimes I laugh but deep inside, I'm feeling lonely. What happen to me? Choice, chance, change. It's time for me to take the choice of changing myself to a better ...

Garden Wedding, The New Concept

Image
When talk about garden wedding in Malaysia, my first thinking is unpredictable weather. How can we arrange a good garden wedding with all the sunny and rainy days? Oh well, a friend of mine had did a garden wedding for her wedding. For me, although the sun is brightly shinning eating up our skins, what matters is the love shared between two person. It’s the love that brightens up and shines the whole event. Rules of thumb for those who is preparing for garden wedding in Malaysia: -           Remember to add tent at the guest sitting area -           Bright colors as decorations will surely brightens up the area -           Lovely MC Okok, this is just my own personal point of view. You might have your own.. Happy wedding for those that are in the midst of preparing their big day!!

My House

Image
Lately, I've stuck myself at my new house. I'm still staying with my dad because my new house isn't ready yet. HB have been hardworking too. Almost all of the works done in our house is done by our ownselves - of course with some help from experts. Lighting - HB and his friend had been installing the downlight for almost 2 wks now.. Water heater - We finally got the heater installed. Fans - There's 3 fan in our house: master bedroom, guest room and living room Curtains - some parts in the house, we didn't use curtains. But for some, HB grill the curtain stick on. I'm still searching for curtains Garden - the most tiring moment will definitely be gardening!! After 2 days of hard work, we finally 'killed' all the grass in our small garden area. HB bought jambu tree already and is eagerly thinking of planting them this weekend. Next to be done - kitchen and wall painting touch up. Can't wait to move in......

Chinese New Year Celebration 2011

Image
Its the fourth day of Chinese New Year today and now, I'm relaxing myself while having some cold drinks. The past few days is indeed a very tiring moment as I go around visiting friends and relatives. In office, we are pampered with some cakes for best wishes over the new year. Honestly, this is the most fattening new year celebration that I ever had! So what did I do? CNY begins with the reunion dinner where all close relatives would sit together for a dinner. This year, I ordered from HK Noodless instead of having to prepare all the foods. Of course another reason for me to ordered is because I had to work on CNY eve. After the dinner, I take the opportunity to stand outside my house, looking at all the fireworks. I didn't manage to capture any nice photos. It's either I snap too early or I snap too slow! Sigh!!! The best food that I'm longing during this CNY is acar with keropok. Yummy!! For every house that I've been that serves acar, I would defin...

Frenz and Family Cafe

Image
Have anyone been to this new cafe? Actually not so new but for me, its new!! Hahaha ... If your have 'wow' book, you can actually get some discount from it. Another farewell lunch that I've had is at this cafe. I must agree that they have a very nice and warmth environment. My friends complain about the air circulation though. The food - not bad. But one thing that makes me wonder is that there's only one worker. Hhmmm, the cashier is the waitress. Hahaha .. ! I like the lamb chop. The meat is quite soft and not very 'red' too. The pasta is nice too. But I must say that, the pizza is the best. The one we ordered are the Hawaiaan Pizza. Yummy!! It is better than Pizza Hut and Pizza Junction. Hhmmmm....

Firecrackers or Fireworks ?

Image
Some people told me that firecrackers and fireworks is different. For me, both have sound and therefore, isn't it the same? Hahaha... Anyway, CNY is officially over with the celebration of Chap Goh Mei. I just got some time to show off some of the pictures of fireworks that I snap during this year celebration. Many of my relatives and friends says that this year less people is playing fireworks. As for me, I can hear them almost all the time during the eve, first day and chap goh mei. At first, it attracts me to have a look but after a while, I got bored and just went back into the house to watch tv. Kekeke... During the eve, everyone starts to play as early as 6.00pm. Anyway, the view isn't very attractive since it's not dark yet. As the night falls, I can hear fireworks sound at almost anywhere! And of all, this is the best picture I've captured! P/S: I'm just one of the audience for the outstanding fireworks 'performance' ...
