Nothing but Ordinary March.

Im not busy, Im just lazy. There. I respect those bloggers who able to post their stuffs up like everyday, or trice a day. Oh, I forgot. They are students. Ha. No offence. My mouth just itchy.

Besides complaining every Sunday night for tomorrow is gonna be Monday, and cheering up in a break of  dawn on Friday, on Facebook, um, That’s it.. I was a little bit upset because I missed the Hot air balloon festival at Putrajaya last Saturday, 19th, due to the rainy weather. I went there, just to get wet. No colorful balloons, no cotton candy, no hot air balloon ride, no fireworks. I was looking forward to it since February! But all I got was a messy hair. I looked like a heartbroken banshee. The only nice picture I took was this alley covered by a green leafy bamboo. Taken at Alamanda, Putrajaya.

I put the title of the album like : “A short trip to Korea” on my facebook’s album and actually another friend bought it! He sent me a message and told me how envy he was. I told him that is impossible because I only got 29 pictures uploaded. It didn’t looks or sound like me in a real trip at all!

 

I met my long lost Korean friend that day. We haven’t met for almost 3 years, and here he is. All grown up. I discovered that there is a Korean shop selling all those Korean’s food at Lower ground 1Utama new wing, called Lotte Mart, too. He was running happily to the shop and showed me his favorite snacks when he was a little. And he let me try a chocolate cookies which he claimed that he never had a chance to eat when he was a little. Uh,

Korean cookies

what an emotional purchase.

The shop also selling a homemade Kimchi! and it only costs at MYR10. I remembered how expensive a bowl of Kimchi soup costs me here. Next time I just come to Lotte Mart whenever I have a crave for Kimchi soup.

…and now Im addicted to it. I have 02 boxes in my room now :P I keep eating it like 3 pieces a day. Haha. Thanks MJ. And oh, I keep on eating at sushi King for a good cause! 1% of your total bill will be donated to Japan earthquake & tsunami victims.

Here is a sneak peek :)

Oppss… Sorry!

I went out every weekends these days. I spent my whole day outside. Like starting from brunch till night. Just hang out with friend and girlfriend. Eating, movie, shopping, bitching and eating. It has been a while I don’t go out for brunch. I have trouble to wake up early until recently. It must be the collagen juice that I am taking for the past 1 month =)

Come here for a  shot. I guarantee you, you will look beautiful! or, feeling beautiful, at least. hehe

Life can never be too empty when you have friends like mine. Someone told me that I have more good friends than most people do. I don’t know, I don’t have many friends. But whoever I have with me now are the best. It’s not the quantity that matters I guess. I’ve known them for many years, one, two of them since primary school, but mostly were from University. I have only few friends who are really willing to laugh and cry with. An extended family, separated before down to earth or whatever you want to call it. One or two of them really hold my darkest secrets. Flaws and mistakes brought us closer, we grow together in finding the meaning of essence of life. It’s very hard for me to open up to a new people, even just for a small friendship. I need to fall in love even for a friendship. It is love that keep us together all along.

just us

us

** we manage to meet up only night time due to super busy life. Haha.

Well, maybe me and my girls don’t have the best man and love in our life unlike some other lucky girls out there. But we are the luckiest to have each other.

XOXO.

日本, あなただけではない

Day passing real fast. It was loathsome Monday, severe headache on Tuesday which sent me straight to the clinic and spent the rest of my dreadful day on bed and suddenly it’s Friday. Everything seems very fast, just like the tsunami disfigured beautiful Japan coast.. a minute after the quake near Sendai. And I read it has shifted the Earth on its axis by almost 10 cm, shortening the by few microseconds.. that’s explain why.

We watched on the news and hundredth times on YouTube the terrifying waves and blackest flood swiped Tohoku region, we read about it, talked about it, staring at the photos and satellite images, having a nightmare because of it and sent our thoughts and prayers to the victims and their family.

Sitting in a zone of extreme crustal instability, they had 5.0 or greater earthquakes almost every year. 8.9 or 9.0, life must go on. They have been working more than 24 hours to clean up the aftermath of the disaster. No halt. I believed Japan never waited the nature to heal itself, they accelerate the process. Yes, this one is the toughest and the most difficult crisis for Japan, they will rise in no time. They survived Hiroshima and Nagasaki’s, so do the tsunami’s.

Economic point of view, yea it hurt (real bad), but we must remember, we always love Japanese cars and their hi-tech gadgets and we always will. Or maybe you pervert guys out there need to start do the real serious subscriptions on Manga and Hentai’s site instead of sharing and hacking. Support Japanese products! Help Japan regain their economy! As for me, I will eat more and more sashimi and sushi! :P

 

Be benevolence, stash your penny right this time. I stop buying shoes for a while! For Malaysian, you can go to;

world Vision

give2Asia

and for the rest, you can go to;

Japan emergency relief

Direct relief

 

or GLOBAL GIVING.ORG

 

and most of us always forget about the other living creatures which are equally deserve to be rescued just as us human. They who gave us their loyalty, truly companionship and joy, like no human can do. The story of legendary Hachiko continues, this clip below really touches my heart because I don’t think that any of people that I know willing to wait by my side after the tsunami like this~shivering, hungry, surrounded with nothing but wreckage. Oh wait, I think only my mom will (I think so)

 

 

Save your voting for American Idol Season 10 or Akademi Fantasia for a while and divert it to GLOBAL ANIMAL.ORG, I promise you, you will feel good after doing it. (Or maybe you might see halo on top of your head every time you look into the mirror!)

 

God bless Japan, Land of the Rising Sun.

Breakaway Rendezvous

When the emptiness is unbearable and the feelings went chaotic haywire, this is what I do. I fly.
1
Say hi to Thai land.
This is my very first getaway for year 2011 - Phuket. It was happened exactly at the right time for the right cause. So many things bothered me few weeks before this flight – got insulted for no reason, being judged by the person you least expected, realized I made a wrong decision in my career, had to let go something which I thought it was mine. Still, I’m not regret for being me, this is the life that’s written for me, no point of U-turn that I can make. Only, sometimes, I hate it because I unable to find something, or someone else to blame.
140
Some people came to me and said my life is so colorful. It took every rainbow that appeared every day in a year to describe it. I know, they made such blunt conclusion through pictures displayed in here or anywhere else. Yea, pictures do tell stories, so they read and captured the stories in an auspicious note. They don’t know that someone like me who knows the best what good life should be, because she did not have it, so she arrange it in such way that it is believable, livable.  

123
Ah, it’s good to be somewhere quite far from the familiar – work, people, road and Facebook. Ha! All the memories and sights planted through my eyes & big boi’s gonna soothe the wry in me back home until the next destination. Damn, I was going to write something entertaining and funny in here until Im listening to Boyce Avenue. Suddenly emo pulak. Sigh. Let me, for once! (really? once?)

25
I taste the life like the food that I ate, and try to figure it out what makes it taste so good from the one I had before. It maybe appears just the same, but believe me, it is not. And I learn that what’s the best now doesn’t mean it stays as it is in the next round. I always swear that “this is the best”, but then, well, you know. I don’t know how to call it as A bless, when human are bestowed with unlimited expectation and needs, when good is never enough. You need to constantly upgrade yourself in order to stand as average as the others. (Oh, I can’t imagine how do people manage to do above the average, it’s too complicated for my brain). Um, I think life as a cow is a bless. They only got to eat green grass for their whole life and never complained. I think they are happy inside out with that green grass although they don’t get to fly to Phuket!

shy experiment
..and sometimes, the sights from the getaway really awaken my taste bud. You don’t see this in your workplace or shopping mall, or among your friends. But no, this is just an experiment for my aperture. You don’t know what actually awaken me after 7 month of my singleton lane. On that same day. after I had my tour around Pha-Nga Bay, my girlfriend and I went back to Karon beach (the place we stayed during the trip). We were looking for something extremely delicious…

I thought this will be the most extremely sweet stuff that I got to experience that evening. Until I was looking for a seat to sit down to enjoy this, mango pancake, crepe, whatever! I was drawn to a park bench behind this crepe, pancake, whatever!’s stall. Usually I won’t simply sit and talk with some strangers especially in a foreign land, but then, there was a strong magnetic field pulled me to it. Gosh, he looks exactly like NBA player - Tony Parker, with his tanned dark skin, lean muscular arms and Tony Parker’s smile. Wait a minute, was it his eyes? I can’t quite figure it out what was smiling at me. Yea, he got that smiling eyes. He’s a Swedish (mixed, cross breed, I guess) and very decent. He knew Malaysia, and keep on saying Pulau Perhentian, Malaysia is the best for scuba. Ah, anyway, my girlfriend’s effort to open up the pathway between us went to the drain because I was too smitten by his looks. I didn’t get his name what so ever, it was the most 20 smitten shy minutes for the 1st time in my 7 months singleton life. Thank to him for awaken me from the blank. I think I want a man in my life, again.

It was a simple day, beautiful warm evening for me. Though the trip or the moment is short, but it really pulled me away from whatever that bothered me at the beginning.

Looking
…and I won’t stop looking and creating my own happiness. Until I believe that I am one.
Till then,
xoxo.
**will post up the gorgeous pictures and story of Phuket soon :P ~Please let me bring you to a breakaway, my way.
