Life's Blissful Moment

2010-04-30T01:23:00.003+08:00

It's funny really, to think I know some people my whole life. People I called friends...

Now, they just seem like specks of dusts, waiting to be swept away....

I understand now, how once that person decided to leave and forget about them....

On another note, Job's been rather stressful, and yes I have neglected on my blog for a REAAAAALY long time. It's time I close it....and leave this past behind me...

A new day ahead...

It's just 3 sentences

2010-03-02T18:38:00.004+08:00

I am lack of sufficient sleep.
I need a goal.
I don't know what I want to do

I miss you

2009-06-12T00:03:00.000+08:00

Dear mom,

It's been exactly one year since you've been gone, alot has change in this house. I guess the house just became much more quiet and empty since you left us and went home to be with Jesus. I still miss you alot, and I pray that when my time comes, you'll be at the gates with Jesus welcoming me. I can't wait to see you again mom, I miss you and I'll always love you. There will never be another mom in my heart except you.

Till we see each other again on the other side,

Love,

Your son,

Caine

"I'm 5 years old" says the blog

2009-05-17T01:24:00.002+08:00

Oh wow, I just remembered. My blog is now 5 years and 1 day old....yes, it was yesterday, May 16.

I can't believe my blog has actually lasted for that long. Well, let's see what I can remember. I guess I started out this blog to try to be like kennysia, but to no avail. Then later on I decided to just let my blog be a place where my thoughts are placed into words for the public to view. At first I was rather active with my blogging, but later on I fell into hiatus mode. Slowly I picked up my blogging again, but then I went back to hiatus mode till today. It's been a long run with blogspot. I know I have neglected my blog alot but I am still keeping it open, and hopefully one day it'll remain active again.

Happy 5th Birthday, my dear blog.

=)

12 beauties but 1 winner, who will it be?

2009-05-09T11:02:00.004+08:00

A ferocious cat fight...
Numerous flashes of light...
12 female hotties....

If your first thought was some documentary show or animal show, guess again. It's Malaysia's very own and very first Online Reality TV show, Malaysian Dreamgirl.

What is Malaysian Dreamgirl you say?

Well, this show is somewhat like Tyra Bank's Next Top Model show, but the difference is...It's totally Malaysia baby....

Malaysian Dreamgirl is an online reality TV show where 12 girls "fight" to be top model in the show and viewers are the ones that will be deciding who stays and who goes. So I would say it's a mixture of Next Top Model with American Idol's voting system. Lol.

Ok, back to business, if you've been following the show..*like I have*. We are now down to our final 3 contestants; Juanita, Dawn & Pinky. The finale or the Grande Finale as I like to call it will be held :-

Venue : The Curve, Mutiara Damansara
Date : 15 May 2009 (This coming Friday)
Time : 7pm onwards

This is it people, 12 beauties, but 3 remains. Which of the 3 you have crowned as the 2nd Malaysian Dreamgirl and fullfilling her dreams....

Will it be Juanita?

Pinky?

or Dawn?

Photos copyright of Malaysian Dreamgirl

Tune in to Malaysian Dreamgirl, or better yet..get your bums, camera and maybe flowers if you're a diehard fan and come down to The Curve and support your favourite model.

Remember now, it's at The Curve on the 15th of May starting from 7pm onwards...

Everything's not in place

2009-04-09T00:15:00.002+08:00

I am unhappy with the way things are right now with the economy. *damn those who are responsible for the economy crash*

I am unhappy with the way things are right now with the family. *Damn that person, I hope she dies and burn in hell*

I am unhappy with what I studied. *Stupid course, stupid career, stupid industry*

I am unhappy with my current status....

Everything seems lost and out of place. It feels like the puzzles are not properly put in the right place. It's like I'm trying to fit a square into a circle. I feel like I'm a donut with a hole in the middle.

I want to trust Him, but somehow I find it really difficult. Sigh, what can I do...

Wickedly Wicked

2009-03-17T17:42:00.003+09:00

Last Sunday, Suzanne and I went for a magic show. But it's not your average magic show. This is Barry & Stuart, two magicians from UK, specifically from Scotland. They were here at Malaysia, courtesy of Gardner&Wife, for two weeks of non-stop comedy with magic. You might have known them for their controversial magic on "tricks from the bible".

Well, despite of that, I was entertained by their performance during the last show. What I like about them is that they're engaging. They involve the crowd is lots of stuffs. I must say, despite all these, the publicity was not well received. Before they came, The Star did publicize the event but only 1 page. I did expected a full crowd during the last night, but unfortunately there were plenty of empty seats, I could pay 50 bucks and seat at the 80 bucks seat and no one would care. Well Suzanne sat on the 70 bucks eat (which was coincidentally next to mine).

Overall, I'd say it was worth the money. It's not everyday you get to watch these people live after viewing their shows on Youtube. After the show, I had the privilege to speak to Stuart. We talked about some of the acts that I've seen on youtube and those they've performed that night. Then before Suzanne and I left, I also had the opportunity to take pictures with Barry & Stuart...

I do hope they return again, sometime in the future.

Barry & Stuart, they're wickedly wicked...

That's me with Barry(L) and Stuart (R)

Suzanne with Barry & Stuart

Well, I guess I'm no longer an avid blogger like I used to be.

Chinese New Year is over, yet my chance of landing a job is still no where near successful. I guess it's just bad timing for me to graduate. I've been spending most of my time at home and picking my sister up from school.

Lately, I've never been able to get a good night sleep. I guess this is because of what has happened recently with the sudden departure of Markus Ng. It kinda made me think, at anytime, any moment, anywhere, I could just drop dead, just like that. Death is one "disease" we all will eventually get and there's no escaping it. It's only a matter of where will we go after that.

Will we be in God's presence? or will we be rotting in hell like the other sinners?

Mom left first...

Granny left next...

sigh...

what should I do?

Blessed New Year 2009

2009-01-01T01:18:00.002+09:00

Woke up in the morning.
Went Garbo.
Got back from Garbo.
Had dinner at South Ocean.
Went to Northbridge for bubble tea.
Headed to East Perth for Fireworks display.
Wished everyone a happy new year.
Got home.
Took out the rubbish bin.
Killed an Australian Redback Spider.
Killed another unknown spider.

Happy New Year.

My final week

2008-12-28T23:22:00.002+09:00

Well, this is it. This is my final week in Perth, I am officially a Murdoch Graduate having passed all my final 3 units with I would say satisfying results. It has been a tough 1 and a half years. But I have persevere with God's help. He has seen me through this tough 3 semesters here in Perth. He showed me the way to friends that I know I will never forget. He showed me the way to a church I love serving. Zion Praise Harvest will always be the place I have in my heart. I will definitely miss ZPH.

I am at the midst of packing my stuff and hopefully the transition back home will be smooth and hopefully no reverse cultural shock. Though I feel there might be a slight shock. I love Australia, I love Perth. If God willing, I will definitely return here.

To all the friends I've met here in Perth,

God bless you all and I hope we could meet each other again. Murdoch Zone-rs. Remember, Jesus loves you. RIGHT? =)

Good bye Perth..

Goodbye Uni

2008-11-18T23:04:00.002+09:00

What do you know, I have finally finished my university. It sure has been a bumpy 5 years of tertiary education. I had lots of ups' and downs but nevertheless I overcome it. It's like not too long ago I started my diploma at KDU College and then further my studies right here at Murdoch University. Gosh, I just realise I'm no longer a student!?!

Well, I guess it's time that I join the rat race or what Kenneth would call "Sampah Masyarakat" (Society's Trash for translation). I also have come to realise, I am no longer a kid, it's time that I really grow up and start acting more my age. But...but....I'm just bloody 22 years old!! Oh what the hell...

Well, somehow I am having mix feelings right now. Part of me am happy that I'm done with studies. The other part of me wish to remain a student awhile longer. But we all have to face reality, we're not getting any younger. Anyways, my convocation will be held at Singapore next year. If I'm not mistaken, it's roughly during October 2009. Time and date still unknown but venue would most probably at Raffles Convention Center (or so they call it).

I do feel really sad that mom is not able to make it for my convocation. My wish and dream when she was still with us is that she will be able to watch me walk up the stage and collect my certificate. But I believe she knows that I love her very much....

Oh well.....

Caine is done with uni....not yet graduate, just done with uni!!

A Malaysian Music Haven just for you...

2008-10-04T00:05:00.002+08:00

Recently, two guys came together, sat down, talked and decided to come up with a website that is dedicated to the Malaysian Music Community....

On the 14th of September 2008, History was made. Smeex was set up and began operation on that day....

Smeex is a website dedicated to the Malaysian Music Community and the purpose of Smeex is to unite Malaysians who share the same interest in Music and bring them all together as one community. Here are a few explanations to what Smeex is all about...

What is Smeex.Com?
Smeex is a Malaysian music community portal website, a website for Malaysian musicians and music enthusiasts. The website primarily focuses on the Malaysian music scene, providing updates and news on 'whats new' in Malaysian music today. Smeex is also a resource portal, where you can find music-related resources such as downloads, tutorials, software, lyrics, song sheets, chords, and much more in time to come!

Why Smeex. Why not some other name?
The reason to choosing 'smeex' was because it was a short and catchy name. Smeex is actually the abbreviation for the words "Sound, Music, Euphony, Enjoyable, and Xtreme". Sounds corny, but that's what WE musicians are - Producing something pleasing to the ears that is extremely enjoyable!

The Goal of Smeex
The goal of this site is to provide a platform for musicians and music enthusiasts to interact, share their music, find/meet other musicians/professionals in the music industry.

What makes Smeex different/unique?
Smeex is all about community and user-driven content. One of the key features Smeex offers is the ability to 'find' other musicians/band members instantaneously by filling up a simple form. The larger Smeex grows, the more possibilities there are out there for musicians as well.

©Smeex.com

Basically, if you are a Music enthusiast, a musician or someone who wants to know more about the love of music. I recommend you to visit Smeex and check it out.

A hard headed guy

2008-09-10T22:51:00.003+08:00

I have only one thing to say to Malaysia's Datuk Ahmad Ismail....

He is one hard headed fellow....
One word of apology also don't want to give.
Adding oil to the burning flame...

*slaps forehead*

I wonder what will happen next....

I'll take care of you

2008-09-07T23:51:00.003+08:00

I'll take care of you, don't be sad, don't be blue
I'll never break your heart in two, I'll take care of you
I'll kiss yours tears away, I'll end your lonely days
All that I'm really trying to say is..I'll take care of you

I want you to know that I love you so
I'm proud to tell the world you're mine
I said it before, I'll say it once more
You'll be in my heart till the end of time

I'll take care of you, don't be sad, don't be blue
Just count on me your whole life through
'Cause I'll take care of you

I want you to know that I love you so
I'm proud to tell the world you're mine
I said it before, I'll say it once more
You'll be in my heart till the end of time

I'll take care of you, don't be sad, don't be blue
Just count on me your whole life through
'Cause I'll take care of you
I'll take care
I'll take care of you

Dear darling,

2008-09-06T17:55:00.001+08:00

Today.... I went.... I shoot... I kill... I got killed....

and had to get shot in the bloody head!!!!

10 killer shots in total... (done to me!)

Life is just great....

Happy Birthday mom... I still miss you...

2008-08-29T00:27:00.004+08:00

If she were still alive today, she would have been 49 years old.

Mom,

I know there won't be any birthday parties up in heaven, but if you can hear me...

Mom, Blessed birthday mom, I just want you to know that I love you a lot and I still miss you...
It's only been this long, but I really wish you were still here with us celebrating your 49th birthday and 50th Birthday....

Why did you have to go...

=(

A picture left with memories for the heart

2008-08-12T11:00:00.000+08:00

It's been exactly 3 months since mom departed from us. It was really difficult for me to let go of her after spending 22 years of my life with her, from the day she conceived me till the day she went home to be with the Lord. I will never forget the times I spent with her in the hospital, sacrificing my sleep and holidays just to take care of her. I think about the times she sacrificed her busy schedule just to pick me up from school, dropping me off to tuition, picking me up from tuition.

I will never forget being involve with her in worship. I'll be either on the drums, guitar or bass, and she will be the back up singer, I really miss her melodious voice...

One of her favorite Christian song was....

Jesus, be the center Be my source, be my light Jesus Jesus, be the center Be my hope, be my song Jesus Be the fire in my heart Be the wind in these sails Be the reason that I live Jesus, Jesus Jesus, be my vision Be my path, be my guide Jesus

She has fulfilled her duty as a mother to my siblings and I. I know that because of who I am today and what I have become. She would not hesitate to point out my flaws and correct me, one of them being my temper. She has always been telling me about my temper, always teaching me to be patient. Mom, I want you to know that I do not let my anger get the best of me so easily.
What else I can about my mom? She taught me that we ought to bless other people, don't ask anything in return and God will surely bless us back.

Our last Chinese New Year together as a family.... Our last reunion dinner as a family....
We always have steamboat for reunion dinner. Mom would always get the best crabs there is from her friend. FRESH and ALIVE!! This year I took the liberty to murder the crabs since mom had no strength anymore to chop the crabs.

This was the last time she spent her birthday with me. I guess that was 29th August 2006. This year we'll have one less birthday to celebrate. It aches my heart so bad that I am unable to celebrate her 49th birthday...

This will be the first time that :

I will be spending Christmas without her
I will be ushering the New Year without her
I will be graduating from Murdoch without her
I will be celebrating Chinese New Year without her
I will be celebrating my birthday without her

It will be the first time for so many things for me....

Gosh, I really really miss her alot....Will I ever learn to let go and move on?

The times we spent here was the time well spent...

2008-08-08T23:30:00.001+08:00

The past 1 and a half year has been really tough for the both of us, but I would say we are both very fortunate during the past 1 year and a half...
I know this entry came rather late than expected, but I know you'll still appreciate it right?

7 years of relationship;on and off, it really has been a long journey for both of us. Imagine from the first day I told Elya how pretty you are till today with me "forcing" you to cut your long hair...

*laughs out loud*

Well, I'd say we've been through alot of things together, bad and good things. Some not worth remembering. I hope we would go on till the end....

Last year, we both got a chance to visit Tokyo Japan for holiday. I can still remember the time we walk back from Aeon to my aunt's apartment and it was still raining. That was like the bomb.

Although we spent only a week there, but I'd say that week was a dream come true. I remember the time we spent at Tokyo Disneyland...

the On-sen...

walking around Venus Fort...

I won't forget that.

Who would forget the time you came to Perth to visit me. I was really excited that you were coming that I cleaned my room, changed the position of my tables and bed. But in the end my room still is untidy. But I was still glad you were here to help clean my room. I very grateful for that. Now it's messier than ever, please come clean for me.

How about the time we went Kings Park? Remember you were very unfortunate to have your camera run out of battery, luckily my phone camera takes good photos, if not you KOed...HAHA

The picture above is my favourite photo, it's my wallpaper. I love that smile... =)

How about this? Your battery ran out of juice... HAHAThe DNA Tower? remember? we compete to climb up there...

Swan Bell Tower? The sound of the melodious bells. Imagine our wedding there, WOW that would be like fairy tale dream come true.

Remember we went Caversham Wildlife Park? Enjoyed it? I know I did dear...Wherever I go, as long it's with you, I'm happy.

You promoting Lancaster Wine behind the vineyard..

Our Fish and Chips session at Freo...

I hope we will have more memories like the ones above to be kept with us forever. I thank you for being able to be patient with me, to be able to tolerate my awful manners...

I love you...

Always...

and...

Forever...

Week 1 has commence...

2008-08-04T20:13:00.002+08:00

Oh boy, it's the start of the semester....

Orientation week was awesome, met lots of great people and was personally happy to be able to be a part of the orientation community. It does brings joy to usher in the new students into a new community in a new environment with a whole new bunch of people with a brand new culture.

I would say that this is the first time during my time here in Perth that I wake up at 7am in a week, that's like a personal record. You know, I love to sleep... eat....maybe sleep again... but yeah, it was all good.

We also had a number of activities planned for the freshies. We're glad that we as a zone are able to help the freshies feel welcome in Perth. I know how it feels to be away from home for a long period of time. We all went through that phase, so we try our best to not make them feel lonely, that they have friends here.

Well, on another note, I know I'm not suppose to bring this up but can't help it...

It's been nearly 2 months since she's gone, but I still miss her alot. Sometimes I wish I could turn back the time, just to be with her one last time. Even now I can't help thinking what she's doing right now.

Mom, I miss you alot... can you hear me mom?

I love you....

P/S: Class commence tomorrow 12:30pm...assessments out on MyMurdoch and what sucks most is.... I HAVE ESSAYS TO WRITE!!! GRARRRR!!

God save me.....

The Final Semester

2008-07-19T02:36:00.002+08:00

It's the final semester and I will finally graduate as a student.....I will no longer be called a student?!?!?! No more student price discount... No more afternoon movies, no more afternoon naps...

Oh well...

I will be flying back to Perth This coming Sunday evening, and will be involved with the Orientation at Murdoch. I guess it's time to move on with my life, now that I know mom's in a much better place. I am glad that I will have all her visions with me to remind me constantly that mom is now enjoying her eternal reward that God has for her. She has been good and faithful with small things, and God now gave her bigger things. I will always miss her, and will always love her. I pray when my time comes, she'll be there waiting for me.

I guess it's hard to leave behind the family at such time of grieve, but I pray that God will comfort us in our time of grieve and I pray that in time the family will come to trust in God wholly and we'll all walk truthfully so that when it's our time, we will all be united as a family, with mom and Christ as our Head....

It's also hard to leave behind the one I love. I know it's hard for us to be apart for a period of time and this time it's gonna be longer. But I pray that despite the distance, our hearts will continue to draw closer to each other with Christ as the centre of our relationship. I pray that God will open doors for us and in future we will serve Him together.

Dear, I love you always and though we'll be far apart. I know deep inside we'll be closer than ever. I hope you will not be too sad over the distance, though it'll be lonely for us both, but know that I still love you, and always will...

Still struggling

2008-06-25T01:56:00.002+08:00

I still find it hard to accept it, even though I know she is in good hands...

but still I can't....

I miss her...

alot!

Why did you have to go!!
I am so lost without you!!

It's been a week...

2008-06-19T23:51:00.003+08:00

Well, it's nearly been a week since the departure of my beloved mom. I am still struggling to cope with the loss. The house feels very quiet ever since she went home to be with the Lord. Dad now has to bear the responsibility as a mother and a father. But as the eldest son in the family, the least I could do is pick my sister from school, guide her with her studies and so on, at least while I am still back home in Malaysia.

After that, I'll be heading back to Perth and this time I am not sure whether I want to come back for good. I feel as if there is no reason to be back home. Dad also wish that I get a job overseas. However, my current concern is my girlfriend. I really hope that she can get a job in Perth, and we can both start a life there.

Sigh, I need guidance.... Lord, where do You want me to be?

Mom, I miss your laughter, I miss your smile, I miss your hugs and kisses, I miss you so so so much. =(
I love you so much, mom.... My heart still aches...

12 June 2008, I will always remember

2008-06-12T23:38:00.004+08:00

My heart tells me you are now walking on the streets of gold, taking a look at your mansion that Jesus has built for you.

I love you, and I am sorry I am unable to be at your side.

I'll miss you and always will remember and cherish every moment I have spent with you.

I love you, mom.

Behold

2 weeks of ushering..

AWESOME...

Quick Update

2008-05-19T03:58:00.003+08:00

Wow, it's been nearly 2 months since I last update. I also am not suppose to be updating right now anyways, but I just needed something to relax my mind. Well, this is nearly the end of the semester, I have only assignments to complete and handing them in. I just completed my first essay and I'm yet to study for my test on Monday (which is today!!!) 2.30pm.

Well nothing much as happen, I never really experience much this semester. It felt like the semester just went past me in a blink of an eye. I've only got one more semester to go and I'll be heading home. (Finally!) Oh, I dislocated my right shoulder, how cool is that? The pain was unbearable, well at least for me it was unbearable. I never had such injuries in my life. But the pain is nothing compare to the pain I felt when I received the bills for Medical and Radiology. YES, I needed to do an X-ray to assessed the damage to my right shoulder, and thank God nothing was damage. Doctor was satisfied with the condition. He just pop it back in, just like that. Though I had to inhale Nitrous Oxide aka Laughing Gas, though there wasn't anything to laugh about.

Have been on the sling for the past week, now I just take it out once in awhile to relax my hand, plus I needed to get my assignments done so have to force myself to type. Well, the muscles are weak now and chance for another dislocation is high.(Not very high but possible) Hence I have to get myself a shoulder support whenever I play sports.

I am very grateful for Aunty Jenny for cooking dinner for me for the past week. Haven't had home cook meal for a very long time. Though she ask nothing in return, I feel I should get them something as a token of appreciation. May God bless that house richly =)

Had my first birthday celebration away from home, guess what I did?Nothing, lunch , cake and then afternoon nap.

Oh well, better get back to my studies, it's 4am right now. Shhh, I shouldn't be here...

Is this goodbye?

2008-03-27T15:55:00.002+09:00

Imagine having friends you know for long time and all of a sudden they start backstabbing shit behind your back? sucks isn't it? Well, I don't really care what they say, they say what they have to say, I say what I have to say, and I say, grow up you little childish wuss. Our friendship will and will always be from now on a Hi , how are you and bye....so there I said it...I put it behind me. It's in the past.. =)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I can't help but feel that this might be our last year.

I am sorry for the past wrongs I've did behind your back, I am sorry for the things that I've said to you, though I never meant it.

I am sorry for putting you in so much stress, I am sorry for making you carry so much burdens for me.

Sometimes I wish I could make it all better...

I guess, if you want it to happen, I will have to learn to let you go...

Give me time to recover.... I'll always love you, always...

Troubled Minds

2008-03-09T23:09:00.000+09:00

I'm so in a dilemma, what should I do?

God give me the strength to carry on....

I can't do this alone...

Crying for a miracle

2008-03-05T23:40:00.000+09:00

There's nothing left to do buy leave it entirely up to God, it's all in His hands now....

I can only hope and pray...

Sigh, will this pain ever end? Will these tears stop pouring?

Russell Peters in the house

2008-02-26T02:03:00.003+09:00

Life is almost complete...

Healing always comes

2008-02-23T14:55:00.002+09:00

Well, I'm back in Perth, safe and sound, continuing my last 2 semesters of my studies. It has been a tiring journey, but alas it will all be over at the end of this year and I will have to start a whole new journey. Time passes by really fast....

Let me take this time to share this with you, it was something that struck me....

Healing Always comes

"And these signs shall follow them that believe… they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover”
Mark 16:17-18

I Used to get upset over people I’d lay hands who wouldn’t get well. I was praying one day and seeking God about it when He spoke to my spirit and said, “Healing always comes”.
I remember I said, “What do you mean. Healing always comes? Not everybody gets healed”.
I didn’t say they all received it,” He answered. Then He spoke very sternly to me. “I do My part. And I said they would recover!”

Those words hit me like a ton of bricks. He said they would recover. He never lies. So if He said they would recover, then that means healing always comes. It’s not God who’s holding back. It’s the receivers who aren’t receiving.

Since then, I’ve never had any trouble laying hands on people and believing for them to be healed. Whether they walk away well or not, I just keep standing in faith for them. In fact, I know if that fellow who went away still sick ever lines his faith up with God and me-I don’t care if it’s five years from now-he’ll be healed.

If you’ve laid hands on someone who didn’t receive his healing, don’t cut off the flow of God’s power by withdrawing your faith. Stand fast. Keep believing that “healing always comes” and somewhere down the line that poor sick fellow may just decide to stand up and agree with you!.

Scripture Reading: Mark 10:46-52

Lovely isn't it?

I want this for my Wedding

2008-02-12T02:06:00.000+09:00

Video says it all...

Got this from Lordson's website

I bid you adieu Malaysia for the second time

2008-02-12T01:48:00.000+09:00

Well, here comes the end of my semester break..

Next week, I'll be back in Perth for another year, feel so reluctant to leave...

Hope all will go well this year...

Will miss home =)

till then

Cheers

A boy badly bruised

2008-01-18T12:52:00.000+09:00

Last night would most probably one of those moments I'll never forget. It would be the only time that I nearly ended up in the hospital or the morgue. Whatever the outcome is, I'll have to prepare for the worst that might cross my path.

My future for the time being has taken another turn, I might not be able to accomplish what I start 6 months back. I might even need to rely on myself from this moment on. I guess it's gonna be extra tough for me but I'm glad that I have relatives who truly cares for my wellbeing. I may not be able to rely on education + financial support, but I guess I can find a way.

There were lots of thoughts circling through my head while alone in the room. I contemplated suicide, I even thought of murder. But I manage to cool down to rationalise things.

Of all the mistakes I've done yesterday, I'm glad I did not do one thing...

is to kill someone...

My new year resolution

2008-01-09T03:02:00.000+09:00

Unlike most people who always say they have not accomplished their new year resolutions for the past years and making the same one all over again...my resolution is to accomplish last year's resolution...

I however have accomplished my resolution, and my resolution is....

Not to have any sort of resolutions for the new year.

Yeap, it really is a wonderful accomplishment.

天灰

2008-01-03T03:35:00.000+09:00

Will I ever be prepared for what the outcome might be?
I'm afraid to face it...

But if I do, I can be sure of one thing,

My faith, will never be the same again...

如果你不再出现我的世界还有什么可贵

可惜不够时间让我们试验什么叫永远

想念变成怀念心动变成心碎

偏偏还会关切你最後属於谁

我的天空今天有点灰

我的心是个落叶的季节

我不知道如何度过今夜

所有的灯早已经全都熄灭

如果你从没出现我会不会觉得快乐一些

可惜残忍时间总要把诺言一点点摧毁

想念变成怀念心动变成心碎

偏偏还会关切你最後属於谁

我的天空今天有点灰

我的心是个落叶的季节

我不知道如何度过今夜

所有的灯早已经全都熄灭

我的天空今天有点灰

我的心是个落叶的季节

我不知道如何度过今夜

所有的灯早已经全都熄灭

我的天空今天有点灰

我的心是个落叶的季节

我不知道如何度过今夜

所有的灯早已经全都熄灭

Are you H.I.M?

2007-12-30T22:17:00.000+09:00

Are you H.I.M enough?

Are you...

Handsome?

Intelligent?

Muscular?

HAHA

update

2007-12-18T00:28:00.000+09:00

I've been bumming at home..
there's my update for the day

=)

Another day in Perth

2007-11-10T23:52:00.000+09:00

Yes, it is time.. it is THE time...

for me to update.

Haha, I've done it! It's the end of my semester. I am now finishing up my assignments and hand them in and then, it's 24 hours 7 days of Rise of Nation. I'm gonna conquer the world!!!

Alright, back to reality. Well, it's been a blessing 4 months for me here down under. I'm grateful to God for helping me pass the critical essay which I oh so did not put much effort, and oh so did not understand anything about it. But still Thank God nonetheless.

I also want to thank God for the job that I've found. It is by far the most enjoyable job I can find, at least for now.

Oh well, I would put pictures here, but I'm just too lazy to upload the pictures into the laptop and have them resized...

Cheers...

I'm coming home!!!

My Wish list (and that includes Christmas)

2007-10-19T23:52:00.000+08:00

I know Christmas is still another 3 months, but I've already got quite a few items that I want for Christmas, but chances are I won't get them, so I decided I would want to work for it =)

Acoustic Guitar (A complete set with case, strap,capo etc)
Original Manchester United Away Kit
Macbook ( still looking into which one)
Electric Guitar (Complete set too, still looking into it)
Set of drumsticks (for drums )
Casual shoes
Soccer shoes
Camera Cleaning tools
New pair of shades
Electric Shaver

Well, that's all I can think of for now. Next year, I should have earn enough money to get me the new guitar. WOo-hoo!!!

Mac, probably another 2-3 years.

Assignments stress.

2007-10-16T01:59:00.001+08:00

Here I was at Mills Point, and that's Perth City in the background. If I'm not mistaken that is Swan River. Yeah

I'm coming home soon people =)

Hello again

2007-10-06T23:17:00.000+08:00

I haven't been updating myself for a very long time, I'm sure you all miss me. Come on, say it... I know you miss me, just say it. =)

Well, I just realized that I haven't been doing my own cooking at home for a quite some time. This is because I have always been having my dinner at Alan's place. It is always nice to have company for dinner, rather than having dinner all by yourself, feels really awkward.

Anyways, I also just realized that my reverse parking standard has dropped. I can't park properly now. Oh well, gotta start all over again. Let's see, what has happened to me during the past few weeks. I was down with injury for 2 weeks due to a rough tackle during indoor soccer by one of the players. My right knee was injured and left thigh had bruises too. But I came back with vengeance, I came back scored a goal, defended well and showed them I am still here and strong!!! Haha, ok I'm going overboard here.

This is my last study break and I won't be having any until the end of semester. The assignments are all pouring in, starting next week. I just recovered from flu, however I am still having cough due to the weather here.

Parents might be coming down to Perth in 3 weeks time, can't wait to see them and introduce them to The Grey family. It'll be so fun...

On top of that, God has bless me with wonderful friends. I thank God for everyone I've met here.

Cheers everyone =)

A powerful message behind the skit

2007-09-30T00:28:00.000+08:00

Well, nothing much been happening lately, besides

:: Preparing for presentations ::

:: Preparing for location shoots ::

:: Preparing for sound recording ::

:: Preparing for final assignments ::

:: pretty much preparing for lots of things ::

Oh well....

Here's a video with a powerful message behind it

The internet in Australia

2007-09-18T00:07:00.001+08:00

Happy birthday to Ean, who just turned 19 years old on the 17 of September.
May God bless you (and hopefully me) richly and all the best in your studies bro.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm sure you all know the internet here is super awesome fast. Well, I must say, it's very true...

But....

They have quotas for the internet access. For my house's internet services, Peak period or from 10AM-2AM the quota is 20GB, and non peak period or from 2AM-10AM , the quota is 40GB.

Something for me to ponder...

I shouldn't have complained about Streamyx...

I live in a house

2007-09-13T23:37:00.000+08:00

I'm having a ball

2007-09-09T23:16:00.000+08:00

Well yesterday (Saturday) was Zion Praise Harvest 10th Anniversary Grace Ball. It was a rather formal event, just like every other balls. We are required or perhaps told to dress formally for the event. Well it started around 7pm-ish, and the ball was held at Perth Convention Centre.

There were a few performances by the ZPH-arvesters. We started the ball with one praise song and then it was dance performances, singing, well you know the usual ball stuffs. Anyways, I enjoyed my 2nd ball because of the flow of wine and champagne. After 5-6 glasses of Houghton White wine and 2 glasses of champagne, I still felt wonderful the next day. Well, during the event we had table games whereby each people at each table plays a game and the winner is eligible to win 3 amazing prizes. The 3rd prize is a GPS system, 2nd prize is a FREAKING Wii!!!, the grand prize for the night was a plasma slim tv. The whole event ended around 11pm-ish and it was the couple's turn to do their thing at the dance floor.

Took some photos of the event, so enjoy the photos....

Behold, the Murdoch Zone of Zion Praise Harvest-ers.

I was finding the toilet, and guess what, the sign points to the wall, so I thought I'd take a leak there only to get caught by Alan with his camera.

Then we had the lucky draw session.

Here's me with my number, being very confident that I will win the Wii.

By the way, the number is 35.

Here's me after they announced the 3 lucky winners.

Feeling dejected, I went to the stand to collect the prize I supposedly won during the game.

and guess what I got?

I won a Philips Craig and Dean album!?!?!

How cool is that?!?!?

Well, better than nothing right?

So yeah, I mentioned earlier there were alcohol in the ball. So there I was, being told to wear the tie on my head and flash a bottle of beer, so I happily obliged my friend, and this is what we came up...
For your information, I wasn't drunk =)

The rest of the photos are taken after the desserts.

That's me and Alphonsus. Then someone came and took another shot with us.

I don't know who is that. =)

Alan and I.

Alright, Lordson, you wanted to know how Pastor Philip Lynn's daughter look like right? Here's a photo of me with Frances Lynn. So Lordson, what say you?

Frances Lynn and I.

Here are some random photos I haven't posted during my outing at Freo.

That's me with 3 lovely skewer mussels.

Alan, Sherman and I.

Trust me, the ground was so nice to sleep on and the weather was sooo fine. What's Alfred doing???
Similar shot but camera was on the ground. Wicked...

Candid.

All photos courtesy of Alan and Noel.

A day at Freo

2007-09-07T01:22:00.000+08:00

Well, friends back in Malaysia, here you go. The long waited pictures of....

*drum roll*

Caine the famous monkey clown!!!

We had Fish & Chips for lunch during our trip to Freo. The portion was big , but not as big as before. The last time I went for Fish & Chips it was huge!

After that, a few of us went Mc D's for ice cream. After buying the ice- cream, we headed to the beach which is just around the corner happily munching on our ice-cream and cam whoring =)

That's Alan and I enjoying our ice- cream.

Ya Ta!!!! We finished our ice cream

The whole group.
from left: Sherman, Alfred, Caine, Sam, Noel, Kah Hon, Alan

That's Alfred , Noel and Sam (girls are coursemates, the guy's fro UWA)

After that, we headed to Fremantle Market, but before that we made a pit stop to Boost for some Boost. While the others went for Gelatino or was it gelato? oh well....

Then we proceed to the Market...

The vegetables and fruits are FRESH and CHEAP.

Well that's all folks. I shall take my leave with one last picture

Cheers mate =)

What's up with me down under?

2007-09-04T23:05:00.000+08:00

Hello everyone,

Firstly, I want to wish my mom a very happy super belated birthday. God bless you so much and I love you lots. By the way, her birthday was last week, August 29th. Last Sunday was Father's day, so Happy belated Father's day to you too dad. You've done so much for me, don't know how to repay them all back to you. God bless and love you lots too.

I know I haven't been updating myself on the blog. Just a quick update here..

Well, right now I'm having a one week break before the exam next week. I am still trying to push myself to hit the books and not the computer games, but somehow laziness took over. Anyways,

Went down Fremantle last saturday for Fish & Chips with a bunch of friends and then headed to the beach for some cam whoring. Maybe for guys we should call it Cam gigolo-ing. Anyways, we walked around Freo most of the day before heading home.

This saturday is Zion Praise Harvest 10 year anniversary ball. I will be going without a date, well not that I'm desperate for one though. IF I did went with a date, Suzanne will whoop my ass nicely.

Today the Gray's invited me over for dinnner, and had some talk about networking or something like that. Not really interested though.

Started playing indoor soccer with a new group of friends I met. We play every Friday evening and man those guys are good (and some are rough though).

I also found out Pastor Philip Lynn's daughter Frances Lynn also worships at Zion Praise Harvest and Pastor Philip also frequently speaks at Zion too. How COOL is that?!?

My head is stuck with one song right now, Hillsong's latest song , Break Free.

Spring has officially started. So it's time to say goodbye to winter and hello to warm weather and goodbye to HOT weather (coming back during summer)

So, I guess that's pretty much it for now. I can't wait to finish my course and come home. Missing everyone, especially Suzanne and last but not least my family.

Till then, Cheers everyone and God bless.

Word on mates

2007-08-26T22:36:00.000+08:00

The picture above was my dinner yesterday night. It was porridge with fried vegetables with scrambled eggs.

Today, I shall teach you how to make "Fried Rice ala Caine"

First of all, the ingredients you need are:-

Cabbage
Chicken thigh (depend on your taste)
Carrots
Cucumber
Garlic
Onions
1 egg
Rice

The seasonings are:

Sugar
Salt
Soy Sauce
Thick Caramel Sauce
oil

If you have left over rice, then use it. If not, cook the rice first.

Alright, here we go...

First, chop your vegetables and chicken into small portions, then heat up the frying pan and add the oil. Next you cook the garlic and onions and then you add in the chicken, fry the chicken till it's nearly cooked, then add in the vegetables and start doing your thing, you can add the egg here and have it scrambled or whether you want to fry it separately it's up to you. =)

When the vegetable's nearly done, you add in the rice. Then, add the seasonings-sugar,salt, soy sauce. OH, remember to add in the thick sauce for that wonderful colour. Lastly, serve it on a plate and you can add parsley for garnishing and there you have it...

Fried Rice ala Caine

Well, winter is almost coming to an end, I have already gotten used to the weather but sometimes it does get rather chilly at night especially today, it was super windy. The funny thing was the wind blew sooo hard that I nearly fell to the ground. Yeah, Perth has one of the strongest wind ever.

I just finished one of my editing assignment today and at a rather record time too. I expected to take 4 hours plus to finish the task but I finished it in half the expected time. Woo-hoo for me =)

I'm missing home =( How's everyone?

I will be heading to city tomorrow to book my air ticket.

Argh, I don't know what to eat for tomorrow's dinner =(

My dinner for the past 2 days

2007-08-22T23:16:00.000+08:00

What to cook????

2007-08-14T22:07:00.000+08:00

I really need ideas on what to cook for my dinner. My dear dear gave me websites with recipes of salads.. SO thoughtful of her, I LOVE YOU wor =)

Anyone else have any ideas what to cook??? Simple food!!!

Anyways, this is my 2nd week of the semester, which means 10 more weeks to go. I can't wait to fly home and have my darling jump on me. HAHA

Well, next week I will be applying for a working visa, I should start hunting around for job. I desperately need cash. I also am planning to find another place to stay. Probably move in with my kdu coursemate and hopefully I can also find a replacement to take over my current house.

I miss my family so much right now, I also miss my darling so much too.

I also am missing my friends and church mates back home. How's everyone doing ?

I have one assignment due next week and another the week after. Out of all 3 units that I'm taking (Screen and Sound production (TV studio), Sound, Screen Text), Screen text is by far the most boring and difficult subject for me to understand. I guess it's because the course has abit of theory.

I mean, WHAT THE HACK IS AUTHORSHIP?!?!?! OMG! I SERIOUSLY HAVE NO CLUE!!

Assignments also makes me feel like going to ~~hell~~ hack. Oh well,

10 more weeks, 10 more weeks!!

Everyday I love you

2007-08-09T21:22:00.001+08:00

This song was sung by Tze Liang during his wedding,

Can I sing it for you Suzanne?

I don't know but I believe
That some things are meant to be
And that you'll make a better me
Everyday I love you

I never thought that dreams came true
But you showed me that they do
You know that I learn somethng new
Everyday I love you

'Cos I believe that destiny
Is out of our control
And you'll never live until you love
With all your heart and soul.

It's a touch when I feel bad
It's a smile when I get mad
All the little things I am
Everyday I love you

'Cos I believe that destiny
Is out of our control
And you'll never live until you love
With all your heart and soul

If I asked would you say yes? <----- Will You??
Together we're the very best
I know that I am truly blessed
Everyday I love you
And I'll give you my best
Everyday I love you

Assignments pouring in

2007-08-07T21:58:00.000+08:00

Ouch, my eyes hurts when I saw the amount of work I have to do to finish this semester's units. I wonder if I can take the pressure. Oh well, I 've got 1 assignment due in 2 weeks and another the following week and all has to be done in the Editing suite. Oh well, I may have to pull another fantastic all nighter this weekend or friday. We'll see how it goes.

Gosh, I've been telling myself to take photos of the house and room but never got to push myself to do it. Just to darn lazy with the winter still lurking around. Spring Spring faster come!!!

I love winter but I also hate winter, so I guess it's like love hate situation. Come on people, update me on what's going on back home???

2007-07-12T13:57:00.000+08:00

Ok, let's see, I've got my Visa, Passport, Ticket....oh yeah, money. I need those greens!!!

2 more weeks till my departure date, I haven't busy packing though. I don't know what else to pack. My on campus accommodation has been rejected hence I've to fork out extra greens just to rent a house along with some friends. I tell you the SV people are nuts, how on earth can they do this to us, they should provide for us international students 1st rather than their pathetic 1st year students, they should at least allocate some for us. Gosh, now I've to wait another 5 months to try to get another room. Oh well....

Updates:-

This coming Sunday I will be leaving for a 3 days 2 nights trip to Redang
Next Sunday will be my last Sunday
Next Sunday will be my Dad's Birthday

My Condolences to the Lean family

2007-07-05T00:53:00.000+08:00

Our dear brother in Christ, Uncle Max Lean has gone home to be with the Lord on the 3rd of July 2007. I wish to extend my deepest condolences to the family, I pray that Victor and the family will continue to be strong despite losing their father, but I also pray that they be hopeful that one day they will see uncle Max again up in Heaven.

23 days to go...

Updates

2007-07-01T22:55:00.000+08:00

Well, I came back from Singapore with a heavy heart, knowing my mom's PET Scan results isn't good. Sometimes I wonder why would such things happen to our family. Only God knows why. I guess we shouldn't complain to God why we are suffering instead look at how Job showed his love and praise for God despite literally losing everything he owned and loved. We should ask ourselves, why only praise God when we receive good things but question God when we are suffering. I guess all things happen for a reason and that reason is yet to be revealed to my family. I hope after these trials the family will be stronger.

On the other hand, my application to get a room on campus has been rejected, which brings me to my second option. Off campus accommodation which is gonna cost a bomb. Pray that I get a room before I leave this coming 28th July. Somehow I felt it was unfair for the Student Village to offer to First year students when WE are also considered new students at Murdoch University.

Hmm, what else is there to say, I'm leaving soon, my mom's condition isn't good. Sigh, must I leave with a heavy heart all over again?

All my bags are packed...

2007-06-25T09:14:00.000+08:00

I am happy because.....

I have finished my internship with Naga
I am going to Singapore
I am going to Redang

I am not happy because.....

I am forced to go New York to work, though I've decided not to go so far just yet.
I am leaving the family for 2 years abroad
I am leaving my sweetheart for 2 years abroad
I have not packed those necessary to study abroad
I have not yet receive any email from Student Village

I won't be around for the next two days!

Bye y'all =)

Upcoming events

2007-06-20T00:35:00.000+08:00

Well this is my last week with Naga ddb Sdn Bhd. I sure had a hell of a 3 week with the company. I got to experience two radio recordings which is right now on air at your local radio stations. I also got to experience one TVC (Television Commercial) with Superwonderful films. I also got the contact for Superwonderful, and the head of AV department also offered to help me hook up with some of the production company for me to do intern with whenever I come back here for holiday.
How nice of her...

So here's my upcoming events, can't wait!!

Singapore 3days2 nights
Redang 3days 2 nights
Perth 2years

I need sleep

2007-06-13T22:05:00.000+08:00

Gosh, I'm lack of sleep, I have not been able to have a good night sleep since I started work at the agency. I've got another 3 weeks left until I finish work, until then I have to spend my time in the office sleeping unless there's a shoot or radio recording.

Any ideas what else I can do to kill time?

quick updates,

- Going Redang on the 16th-18th July

- July 28th will be the day. Sigh...

-Sharon told me to try Tim Tam Slam

I gotta Slam Tim to Tam =) woo-hoo

ZzZz.. I really need some sleep, I will post photos when I'm free

How going to Shoots felt like

2007-06-10T18:51:00.000+08:00

I had my first shoot experience yesterday (nope, not with guns but with cameras). I had the joy to see how production is like in real life and I only have one word to describe the situation there- hectic hectic and hectic. Gosh, I can't believe I chose this career, though I kinda enjoyed how the people work. My purpose there was basically to observed how production company works, apart from these observations.

I also had a few observations of my own, if you are thinking about girls, then yes you are right! I observed the girls/ladies/aunties who are working in that field. Gosh, some of them are pretty (my standards of course), but what turned me off was their smoking. EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THOSE PRETTY GIRLS I SAW smoked, a total turn off. I guess this shows how stressful these career can be. Hopefully I won't turn out to be one of them smokers.

As I was saying, hectic lifestyle... I had to wake up at 6AM, reach the office by 7AM, went to 3 different locations for shooting. The first was in an office at Jalan Ampang. The shoot was 2 hours behind schedule and we had to rush to the 2nd location- A school at Sentul. It was nearly lunch time, while the crew did the shoot, I helped myself to the simple but tasty lunch. Oh yeah, this is one thing I enjoyed about shooting, I get free food, free drinks, free chair, free shade, free fan, free R&R. FREE FREE FREE.

However, by the time they finished the shoot at the 2nd location, I had to go home, so when the driver dropped some of the staffs to the last location, he then send one of Naga's worker and I back to Kelana Jaya. By the time I was home, I was so tired that during futsal session, I injured my right knee and my eyes. Oh well.....

Today's the 2nd day of the shoot but I didn't want to go because got church to attend, plus I was damn lazy to go during sundays. Maybe next time.

Tomorrow will be the 3rd day for the commercial shoot. Maybe I'm going, hopefully not. HAHAHA

1 month to go

2007-06-06T00:15:00.000+08:00

Started work at Naga DDB Sdn Bhd. Today went WASP studio for radio recording, I rather sleep in my bed man. Sigh,

I will try to update as often as possible

Roti canai getting smaller

By MICHELLE GOH and NUR AKMAL

PETALING JAYA: Following the painful raids against traders who overprice their food and drinks, most restaurants are sticking to their regular prices.

The difference, however, is that some restaurants may be dishing out smaller-sized roti canai as well as diluted Nescafe or Milo drinks.

Contrary to earlier complaints by restaurant operators that they would lose out following the government move to increase the price of flour, a random survey by The Star found that they would actually make a hefty profit if the price of roti canai goes up by 10sen a piece.

A 25kg sack of flour now cost RM32.15, up from RM28.40. Each sack is able to produce about 300 pieces of roti canai.

Original Kayu Nasi Kandar proprietor Buruhan Mohamad said that by increasing the price by 10sen apiece, the sellers could reap huge profits.

“Some are able to make up to 350 pieces of roti canai per sack.

“This means that the profit per sack can go up by RM35, which is more than the price of the sack of flour itself,” he said.

Commenting on the price of Nescafe, which went up on Friday, Buruhan said some restaurants were likely to reduce the content in each glass. The price of Milo will go up next month.

According to a distributor, a 6kg carton of Nescafe supplied to restaurants now costs RM333.60. The old price was RM314.40.

Buruhan said that to counter this, some restaurant proprietors might reduce the Nescafe and Milo content when mixing drinks.

Gosh, if this is the case, it would be pretty much pointless going to mamaks ordering roti canai and milo. You're paying nothing for nothing. How sad can these people be?

My first tagged?

2007-06-02T23:46:00.000+08:00

She tagged me!? She tagged me!?!

Tagged: My favourite food

It's difficult to say which is my favourite food, because I eat almost anything, be logical, when I say anything, I meant anything edible. Who knows some idiots might say, "wah, anything, so shit also eat ah". Those phrases are so damn lame. Anyways, I would say my favourite food would be...

1. BBQ Plaza

This is so far the best for me. The juicy tender pork, beef and bacon on the specially designed BBQ pot,pan (whatever you call that thing) served with specially imported sauce from Thailand. So far BBQ plaza can be located at 1 Utama, Bandar Utama and Sunway Pyramid. You have the Supreme Set and Family set and their green tea and chinese tea are free flow. The price is also reasonable. Just recently, Suzanne and I had our lunch at BBQ plaza, 1 Utama, I'm pretty sure the waiter and waitress recognized us already.
Don't forget the soup! It might be slightly difficult to scoop the soup into the bowl, but believe me after BBQ-ing the meats, their juices drops into the soup (hence the specially made pot,pan).
Add in the cabbage and you have yourself a delicious soup.

2. Fried Kuey Tiao

Come on, who wouldn't like Fried Kuey Tiao? This is Malaysia people!?!?! I usually order mine large with extra cockles or "si ham" in chinese ( though they are garbage eaters of the sea). This picture was taking during a breakfast with my relatives at Ipoh, the tasty Fried Kuey Tiao with Ipoh White Coffee, one word, superb!!!

3. Chocolate Fondue

I'm not really a chocolate fan, people who offered me chocolates always find it weird that I don't like them. So let me make myself clear here, I don't HATE chocolate, just that I don't fancy most chocolate that's all. I do eat them once in a while. However, Chocolate fondue is simply heavenly.
There was this restaurant called Fondue House that served Chocolate Fondue, but now.... it's closed down, no idea why. They serve you fruits with liquid chocolate. All you need to do is dip the fruits in the chocolate and feel it explode inside your mouth. I not sure how sex feels like but I guess the feeling is as good as sex. Hmmmm

yeah, I'm having an orgasm

I'm sure I've got much more food to offer such as

Satay, Bak Kut Teh, Chicken Rice, Ipoh Nga Choy Kai (Ipoh chicken tauge), Cendol, ABC (Air Batu Campur ) or Ice Kacang, and many more.

Hence my freaky weight of 76KG!!!!

I love food and I'm that darn heavy! Oh well...

I am gonna tag...

1) Lordson
2) Jaslyn
3) Ming Lynn
4) and you who are reading it

Lina no Joy

2007-06-01T23:27:00.000+08:00

Poor Lina, her appeal to change her religion has once again been denied. Where is freedom of religion? We call ourselves a democratic country yet people like Lina is bounded by the laws of religion. Although man has won this case, God will still have something in His sleeves, I'm sure something good will come out of Lina Joy. In the eyes of man, she may have lost, but in the eyes of God she is already a winner.

I had my medical check up today, and glad I got it over with. Want the details?

Left house at 8:30am, reached KL Central at approximately 9:35am, took cab to Tung Shin Hospital at 9:45-9:50am. Decided to walk to clinic which took us approximately 30 minutes. Had X-ray exam at another clinic before heading back to Chong Clinic for check up. Gave them a "brands essense" of urine for analysis. Realised I weighed at a whooping 76KG. Decided then to lose weight no matter what!
had BBQ plaza at 1Utama (there goes another KG), head home.

That's how I spent my day, awesome isn't it?

I am in a dilemma

Finally an Asian Miss Universe

2007-05-29T23:02:00.000+08:00

Miss Japan crowned Miss Universe 2007

MEXICO CITY (AP) - Riyo Mori, a 20-year-old dancer from Japan who hopes to someday open an international dance school, was crowned Miss Universe 2007 Monday night.

Miss USA Rachel Smith, who slipped and fell to the floor during the evening gown competition and was jeered by the Mexican audience during the interview phase, was the contest's fourth runner-up.

Mori nervously grabbed the hands of first runner-up, Natalia Guimaraes of Brazil, just before the winner was announced. She was trembling in awe as the diamond-and pearl-studded crown was placed on her head.

Mori, from the small town of Shizuoka at the base of Mount Fuji, won the cheers of the Mexico City audience when she opened her interview, saying "Hola, Mexico!'' "I learned how to always be happy, be patient and to be positive, and this is what I want to teach to the next generation,'' she said during the interview competition.

The daughter of a dance school manager, Mori said her grandmother told her as a child that she wanted her to be Miss Japan before she turned 20.

"From the very beginning, I entered the competition with high hopes and an unswerving determination to make this dream a reality,'' she said in a pre-competition interview.

Smith, whose chances may have been dimmed by her fall, was booed during her interview and several audience members chanted "Mexico! Mexico!'' until she spoke in Spanish, saying "Buenas noches Mexico.

Muchas gracias!'' which earned her applause. Mexico has a fierce rivalry with its northern neighbor.

Also finishing in the top five were second runner-up Ly Jonaitis of Venezuela and third runner-up Honey Lee of Korea.

The winner travels the world for a year on behalf of charities and pageant sponsors.

Zuleyka Rivera Mendoza of Puerto Rico crowned her successor at the end of the two-hour telecast with the headpiece valued at US$250,000 (euro186,000).

"To the next Miss Universe, take advantage of this great opportunity,'' Rivera said during her parting remarks.

The 15 finalists from a field of 77 contestants were announced early in Monday's show. They were picked last week during preliminary judging in the contest's swimsuit, evening gown and interview categories, but their names were not announced until Monday, allowing all 77 to be introduced to the television audience.

As soon as the final 15 had been selected, they immediately strutted across the stage in animal-print bikinis for the swimsuit competition to the music of Mexican pop group RBD.

After the evening gown competition, five contestants were eliminated, and the judges chose the winner from the five remaining.

Missing from this year's contest was Miss Sweden, whose country is one of the few to win the crown three times. Isabel Lestapier Winqvist, 20, dropped out because many Swedes say the competition, airing from Mexico City's National Auditorium, does not represent the modern woman.

Hours before the pageant began, dozens of protesters held a mock ceremony in downtown Mexico City that featured "Miss Marijuana,'' "Miss Sexual Health'' and "Miss Human Rights'' and other candidates with obscenities written across their sashes. The group yelled "Neither ugly nor beautiful, should a woman be considered an object!''

Pageant organizers say the Miss Universe contest carefully selects women who are intelligent, well-mannered and cultured.

The program was hosted by 1999 Miss Teen USA Vanessa Minnillo and "Extra'' weekend correspondent Mario Lopez and was expected to be viewed by more than 600 million people in more than 180 countries.

The celebrity judges included actor James Kyson Lee, model Lindsay Clubine, Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo, rocker Dave Navarro, Olympic figure skating champion Michelle Kwan, celebrity hairstylist Ken Paves, fashion designer Marc Bouwer, "Project Runway'' judge and Elle magazine fashion director Nina Garcia and former Miss Universe Dayanara Torres.

The pageant was last held in Mexico City in 1993, when Torres was crowned.-AP

Well, that's a surprise, since in the past many of the Miss Universe are never Asians. This time we went right up their faces and say, "ASIANS CAN BE WINNERS TOO!!"
Congratulations to Miss Riyo Mori, the new Miss Universe 2007.

Devils banned

2007-05-28T23:03:00.001+08:00

Such monstrosity, such evil, such stupidity. Manchester United banned from coming to Malaysia. That means, no Ronaldo, no Rooney, no Giggs, No Scholes (but got Scholls), No Van der Sar (definitely no SARs).

I propose we all boycott the Asian Cup finals! let's not watch them!

Actually it doesn't really matter to me, since I won't be in Malaysia during the Asian Cup season. So that means I won't need to endure the Cup which will never be in par with EPL. Thank goodness I can avoid such boredom. Come on, I am pretty sure FIFA and Mohd Hamman (hammer man?) of AFC have just angered millions of Manchester United fans by making such decisions, also I'm pretty sure FIFA and AFC have just eliminated a certain percentage of viewers for the Asian Cup, don't you think so?

Asian Cup? what cup? coffee brand? I see...

Aren't there any more space on earth?

2007-05-16T15:27:00.000+08:00

I have pressured my lecturer to push the university to send my offer letter and this is the 2nd week of May
and I still haven't gotten the letter yet. What are these people doing? I have to do my medical check up,
I have to book my ticket, I need to know how much my fees are. It is very frustrating.

Stormwater Management and Road Tunnel or better known as SMART is a newly build road tunnel to curb traffic jams within the Kuala Lumpur regions. The road tunnel is approximately 3km and guess what; the toll price is gonna be a bomb.

People, the government spent millions on LRTs and Monorails but people still insist on driving. I hate to say this but we should learn from Japan citizens. Even though the Japanese can drive to work, but majority of them takes the train/monorails/transits to work or school. We as Malaysians have become too lazy, I for one am not exempted. When I was at Tokyo during my 1 week trip, I experienced something I never have or will experience in Malaysia- the experience of walking.

Anyways, back to my main topic for the day; people, are there any more space left on earth? we have SMART being built underground and right now the government are considering drilling more SMARTS below us. Japan already has underground "SMARTS" built in almost every part of the city. I reckon that in the near future, I wouldn't be surprise if Japan will have a city underground. A metropolis city has almost depleted its space on their own country.

Malaysia could probably be one of them soon, who knows? A long time ago, it was meant to be that each family should own one car, but right now, it's each family MEMBER who owns a car. So if one family has 5 members who can drive, you'll see 5 of them owning one car. Now you know why Malaysia has traffic problems. We have too much cars, not to mention the mind blowing fuel price. My family alone has 3 cars, Dad has one, mom has one, bro has one. I decided not to get one because first I won't be around here soon, and secondly I rather borrow family's car should I ever need to drive it. Why waste money on cars? yeah sometimes I do wish I have one of my own. Oh well.

Here's what I have to say about the SMARTS. I wouldn't say it's a bad thing or good thing. If we as Malaysians learn how to use public transport, I'd say that would ease the traffic jams, on the other hand, if the government would take more responsibility in maintaining the public transport, I'd reckon the people would enjoy taking the public transport to work/shopping/school. Don't you think so?

2007-04-16T19:38:00.000+08:00

Tokyo, it was my second destination since my last trip to Singapore. I must have caught the travel bug. I'm still itching to travel. Well, I got back from Tokyo last Friday. The plane touched ground at exactly 7:55pm, that was when I realise we're finally back home and to reality. I can't believe 1 week is over that fast.

When Suzanne and I arrived Tokyo, We felt a lillttle bit chilly and exciting at the same time. The security checks and baggage claim went smoothly. Cousin Yuji and Aunt Nellie was already out the arrival hall waiting for us when we went out and by the time we reach the parking lot, Suzanne and I started to feel the chills. It wasn't the air-con in the airport that was cold, Tokyo was still freezing!!!

The clothes we brought wasn't fit for the weather. I only brought T-shirts and 1 long sleeve shirt. Even the sweater/jacket wasn't warm enough. It was roughly 6pm-ish at Japan and I'm sure most of you know that it's already dark by then. It took us another hour or so to reach our destination of Yashio-Shinagawa, Tokyo, or in short Aunt's apartment. The place is small, but yet cozy. I met up with cousin Naoto and Uncle Higashi. We had a short rebonding since I've never seen them for a long time. Had our dinner and bed time.

I will post more on the trip on my next entry, starting with Sunday.

Until then, cheers.

Greetings from Yashio-Shinagawa, Tokyo

2007-04-11T10:51:00.000+08:00

Just a short entry.

It has been freezing the past few days since I have arrived Japan. The 6 hours plus journey was fun ( in the plane). I will report more when I get back. Tiredness already!!! but having loads of fun!!

It's either a dry or wet Chinese New Year for me. Right now it's a wet cooling Chinese New Year, it's raining! Oh well, it's also kinda quiet this year, which is good for me =)
Nothing much to do this CNY, just bum around as usual. It's also the year of the pig, which means, eat more =)

Anyways, back to topic....

BLESSED CHINESE NEW YEAR TO YOU AND YOU AND YOU!!!!

May your pockets be so overloaded that you need to spend them on me and may your parents be richly blessed as they emptied their pockets as well.

Cheers

A humourous thought

2007-02-16T18:57:00.000+09:00

This is something I got from a friend's blog. The entire entry here is quoted directly from his blog.

Question : What is the truest definition of Globalization?
Answer: Princess Diana's death.

Question: How come?
Answer: An English princess
with an Egyptian boyfriend
crashes in a French tunnel,
driving a German car
with a Dutch engine,
driven by a Belgian who was drunk
on Scottish whisky,
followed closely by Italian Paparazzi,
on Japanese motorcycles;
treated by an American doctor,
using Brazilian medicines.
This is sent to you by an Indian,
using Bill Gates's technology,
and you're probably reading this on your computer,
that use Taiwanese chips,
and a Korean monitor,
assembled by Bangladeshi workers
in a Singapore plant,
transported by Pakistan lorry-drivers,
hijacked by Indonesians,
unloaded by Sicilian longshoremen,
and trucked to you by Mexican illegals.....
That, my friend, is Globalization

How "accurately" it described the flow of the"product". Quite accurately, not absolutely..I've no intention to downplay the death of Princess Diana. This is just humurous, I thought.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well, finally we can start missing Sharon and Esther- Sharon for 5 months, Esther for 2 years. As the "saying" goes, you gotta leave quickly!! We can't miss you if you don't! Bah... So now we got a reason to miss you all. To be honest, I don't feel any less difference in church. Only two girls down, less one drummer and pianist for the worship team. Don't worry, we've got that covered!

I am still looking for a job, struggling to get me lazy bums moving. Barney Comm. was my choice of company but the manager hasn't get back to me. My last resort was through my lecturer. She was kind enough to recommend me to Red Comm. but I haven't given her a reply yet. I guess I'll get back to her after the CNY festivals.

I started my preparations for Perth, gotten my luggage bags, clothes and all. Now waiting for KDU college to contact me regarding the transfer to Murdoch University. I can't wait to start my new journey. I wonder what God has in store for me.

Woo-hoo, I'm leaving for Japan this coming April with Suzanne. Holiday holiday!!! I don't know why, but ever since my trip to Singapore I have the urge to travel, Japan would be my first trip overseas.

Till then, job hunting for me...

Cheers.

A dedication to Esther, Aunt Helen and Sharon

I guess most of the churchmates have watched the performance live, and those whom these songs have been dedicated to have a copy of the video, but I took the liberty of adding some stuffs into the video, nothing gung-ho but yeah. Everyone enjoy....

P/s: Watch till the end of the clip =)

A thought

2007-01-31T02:43:00.000+09:00

I was just browsing through my Friendster's friend list and I saw this quote by Kenny Sia.

Quoted from Kennysia...

How cool is it that in Friendster, we can simply 'Add
Friends', 'Edit Friends', 'Delete Friends'? Wish you could
do that in real life.

That got me thinking, if ever reality were like Friendster, I would be able to add friends who I think would even treat me as a friend , or just delete them from the face of the earth. Wouldn't that be fun?

Oh well, I would like to wish two childhood friends of mine, Sharon and Esther all the best. I hope you girls will have a great time there. I'll see you all whenever we have the chance. Until then, au revoir...

Nothing much, still looking for job.

Just got turned down by another production company. Rather pissed off at the producer's reply, but don't really give a crap about it.

pop my shiny metal butt stupid producer.

Still deciding... oh well

Just a gentle whisper
Told me that you've gone
Leaving only memories
Where did we go wrong?
I couldn't find the words then
So let me say them now
I'm still in love with you

Tell me that you love me
Tell me that you care
Tell me that you need me
And I'll be there
I'll be there waiting

I will always love you
I will always stay true
There's no one who loves you like I do
Come to me now
I will never leave you
I will stay here with you
Through the good and bad
I will stand true
I'm in love with you

Now we're here together
Yesterday has past
Life is just beginning
Close to you at last
And I promise to you
I will always be there
I give my all to you

Living life without you
Is more than I can bear
Hold me close forever
I'll be there....
I'll be there for you

I will always love you
I will always stay true
There's no one who loves you like I do
This I promise...

I will never leave you
I will stay here with you
Through the good and bad
I will stand true Hold me closer...
Our love is forever holding us together
Nothing in this world can stop us now
Love has found love has found a way

I'm in love I'm in love
Yes I'm in love so in love
I'm in love with you

Looking for this song...

Weekend trip at Singapore - Day 2

2007-01-19T23:52:00.000+09:00

outside view from YMCA during day time.

Man, we were so dead tired the night before that we did not hear the phone rang few times. Apparently it was Aunt Helen that called us. We woke up like 9am for the buffet breakfast. To be honest, I wanted to skip breakfast because the bed was to comfortable and I was too tired. Well, we still force our lazy bums out of the bed and into the bathroom, at least we made it in time for breakfast.

I then decided to shoot some candid shots of the Chan brothers, boy I just love candids though nothing embarrassing to show.

candided!

After my breakfast, Bryan and I decided to adjourn back to the room because I had an appointment with the toilet bowl. This is why I never eat breakfast! confirm pangsai!

*ahem*, anyways after all that we all went our separate ways. Mick and family took the MRT to Orchard Road, while I headed to City Hall-Raffles Shopping Centre. I was to meet up with my cousin there. Blimey, it was raining the whole day, I couldn't walk outside at all.

I waited for them at the center court of Raffles, I looked like some blur tourist seated down staring blankly at the Singaporeans. Later on, I saw this 2 kids "singing". Yeah, they were "Singing". Well, there were so cute that unknown to them, I was secretly video taping their every movements and I also got a rather awesome shot of the kid posing. The father however was rather amused than angry at his kids.

The future Singapore Idol

Anyway, cousin and her Spanish boyfriend came and we started walking around the shopping complex. We did not do much other than walking around, I felt like a lamp post walking along side the sweet hearts. Oh well...

After that we walked to Suntec City, Marina Square and all of the shopping complexes are linked underground, like some bomb shelter. We had lunch at Mache @ Suntec City, then headed to Marina Square. While I was there, we passed by this shop called Ears, and cousin told me that they sell lots of cheap old music albums as well new albums.

Ears, the used CD depot, ~~cheap~~ old albums

Without hesitation, I walked into the shop to look for Eric Clapton albums, can't get enough of him. In the end , I got myself one Limited Edition 2007 Tour Eric Clapton cd and Micheal Buble's album, all for S$42 +. Can cry la, that's like S$50 gone. Oh well...

After that , I took the cab from the Convention Centre to Changi Airport, and that alone costed me another S$20. By the time I reach the terminal and got my boarding pass, the attendant told me that the plane is boarding NOW!!! I checked the time table and sure enough, it's on LAST CALL status. To make it more frustrating, the gate is located damn far and there were no buggy like vehicle in sight. I ran like a mad man, and pit stop at the currency exchange and then ran again. I managed to reach the gate in time only to find out that the queue at the security checkpoint is freaking long. I was like so pissed, why the hell put LAST CALL when there's like lots of people still in line.

Well, went past the checkpoint, got body checked because the stupid thing-a-ma-jig beeped no thanks to my belt and the extra SING coins I have in my pocket.

I enjoyed sitting the SQ flight (SIA) more than MH flights (MAS). Reason?

The plane's so much more comfortable
The air hostess is 10 times hotter than ours
Every seat has a mini Tv screen
The orange juice they serve is sweeter and it's twice the sweet when it's given to you by the chun air hostess.

Notice the planes lining up? All SQ flights.

Chun chun chun

Inside the plane

Boarded the plane, reached home around 8pm, and back to my usual routine.

Life's good...

Weekend trip at Singapore- Day 1

2007-01-17T01:19:00.000+09:00

The trip at Singapore was a blast, the concert was worth every single cent spent. Singapore is one expensive place to visit because the price are double the Malaysian Ringgit.

Anyways...

I woke up at around 6am to pack my clothes, I didn't bother packing the night before because it was only a 2 day 1 night trip so I thought I wouldn't need much clothes. Frankly speaking, this is my first time traveling by plane all by myself, sounds kinda lame huh?
So well, I left the house at approximately 8:15am, reaching Taman Bahagia LRT Station at round 8:40am. Well, instead of asking Ean to drop me of at KLIA, I decided to take the KLIA Express train there, the only downside is, it costs me RM35.00 for just one trip.

KLIA Express train-28 minutes to KLIA for only RM35.00

But it saves time, instead of 45minutes trip to the airport by road, it only took me 28minutes to reach the airport. I took the shuttle service to Singapore, it is on first come first serve basis. I had to grab the number so I could take the 12pm flight to Singapore. By the time I got the boarding pass, I then proceed to go to the gate only to find out the darn plane is still somewhere in the sky.

The plane's in the air

Flight delayed for 15minutes ni... ok la, not that bad la. So well, reached Singapre at approximately 1:32pm. But by the time I finish the check up and everything, it's nearly 2pm. Took the cab to meet Mick and family at YMCA, Orchard Road. Nothing much done till concert, took the MRT to Orchard Road, bum around and then took the Lexus Cab to SIS-Singapore Indoor Stadium. The concert was delayed for another 10 minutes or so, but it was worth the wait. He played two of my favourite songs- Wonderful Tonight and Layla. I was hoping he would perform Tears in Heaven. But oh well, it was good. Alot of solos, the acoustic was great too. Next stop, Bangkok for him. If I can afford, I'd go again.

Before the concert

The most expensive seats, and still empty.

Eric Clapton in action, pardon the noise. I forgot to borrow the telephoto lens.

The aftermath of the concert

Eric Clapton is still the best, he still has the voice at his age. What can you expect from him, nothing but the best. I have no regrets attending the concert. After the concert, we began to walk to the Kallang MRT station, only to realise that we got lost. After that, we decided to take the bus to Orchard Road and then plan to walk back to YMCA. However , the bus dropped us directly in front of the building.

The reception

We met up with my cousin Maryanne, who spent me late late dinner. After dinner, we decided to check out her apartment. The view from her apartment is nice at night.

Cousin's apartment view from 11th floor.

We then proceed to head back to YMCA, we got lost again, retraced out steps and found our way back.

2007-01-14T23:16:00.000+09:00

Sigh, just got back home, so tired, still suffering from the post air flight sickness, headache.

Concert was great, will post the pictures later.

God, please just let me die!

Adiós people

2007-01-13T00:02:00.000+09:00

Apparently the return tickets cost RM700++

Hole in pocket just gotten bigger. Oh well, I'll be off for the weekend. I'll try to update when I get back.

Ciaoz.

Singapore, here I come

2007-01-11T22:10:00.000+09:00

It's here, it's finally here.

Behold, the ticket that confirms a seat for me to watch Eric Clapton live in Singapore.
I'll be flying to Singapore this weekend to catch the once in a lifetime concert featuring the man himself with his band. I'm so excited, and I just can't hide it! I know, I know!

I'm ready, I'm ready, for the concert!

Anyways, the ticket is the cheapest we can get. S$87.00, which after converting cost me a whooping RM210.00. My brains just went splat!
Wait, that's not all, the shuttle service tickets costs me another whooping RM301.00 and that's for ONE WAY!!!

So that's RM602.00 for TWO WAYS!!!

When I add it up, the total amount spent for this weekend is RM812.00!!

Aye Caramba, there goes my dream of having a 2GB Ipod nano and my Ang paus and my trip to Japan.

Oh well, I haven't even included the meal and taxi fares, unless the Chan(s) are able to pick me up from the airport.

So yeah,

Singapore, here I come..........

Marathon Madness

5 seasons of Futurama, currently at season 3. I should be done by next week.
Death note has to be put on hold until I'm able to download stuffs again.

When will the torture end!!!!!

I need my downloads!!!!

I gotta download smallville, I gotta download Heroes, I gotta download Death Note, I gotta download Revenge of the Sith.

Download!!

My mp3s!!!

This is utter madness.

I'm still waiting for the General Manager of the production company to contact me, I've been calling and calling and the only reply I get is wait, I'll call you back. So unreliable.
