Just Before

Dinner was good.
Hehe, what we ate and what they drank !
Weymin had two drinks ALL by herself!
Camel-NESS !



JasmineTea | Ice Lemon Tea | Fresh Orange


Sweet & Sour Chicken


Asam Fish Fillet


Heehee


Blow | She's 22


Smiling with her cake


Blur but nicer than the other one


My favourite picture


Blur | But I like



How I wish everyday was as happy..
These are the only few people that made me laugh throughout primary school and high school. Now that we're 22, we've grown, but still the same. Remembering each other's characteristics and what nonsense we used to do when we were younger.
I would definitely cherish them for as long as I live.
Best budds ever !

Her 22nd | At Alexis

Hehe, delayed post.

I almost forgot it was on the 17th. Always thought it was on the 16th. Blur me.
Had dinner at Amy's favourite place in Great Eastern Mall i.e. Cozy House.
Yummy Asam Fish, Salted Vegetable soup, Fried Rice and Hainanese Chicken Rice.

Wanted to just bring her there to have a taste of smooth samba jazz, hehe.
Farid Ali & friends were playing that night.
WeyMin had Lemon Grass Tea, Amy and YeeFun had Peppermint Tea and I had my Ice Cappucino with Ice cream. In middle we had a piece of Tiramisu with one candle.

Well I hope the rest enjoyed that night, cos I did. Though my mind was wondered off to somewhere, but I just had great fun.

Nothing beats hanging out with high school friends, laughing at our own stupidity back when we were younger. I really love and missed those times.

I miss tonnes of it.

Smiles you could never repeat. Love you guys !



Amy | WeyMin

YeeFun | WeyMin



Happy Birthday to you WeyMin

Christmas Red

Just couldn't resist the Red cup.
Just couldn't resist the Toffee Nut Latte.
Just couldn't resist the take-away cup.

So I downed the latte with a tiny straw.
While having a piece of Gingerbread Loaf sharing it with WeyMin, sipping the yummy latte listening to Christmas jazzed tunes and reading OFFTheEDGE - I actually have all the songs that were playing :p





Starbucks became RED.
Yah. It turned RED.
The logo is still green lar. Hehe.

Puffy Clouds

The clouds were awesome yesterday.
Just couldn't help but capture the puffy clouds in my camera since I have poor memory.











Saw some 'mat salleh's' snapping at something.
So I followed-suit.





Simply awesome.

Green & White

Was at The Curve again the recent Saturday.
Took a walk.

When it was time to go home, I saw this !







And when I see balloons, it really makes me happy !
Cos I love balloons.
The guy who was pumping the balloons probably thought, that girl's SO happy.
Cos my face was immediately painted with a smile. A smile so big that I probably looked like the happiest girl on earth that day.

My friend said, 'You're so easily satisfied'
Well, that's me. That's why I can never understand why people can say I am fussy.
Why when I'm such a simple girl, I still am so hard to satisfy?
Tak faham.

But the balloons rocked !

Dream

Its 4:09am.
Sitting here, wondering if I would get what I want to achieve in life.
Well besides having a house over looking the sea with my loved ones, I believe there is more to life than that.

I've never been able to accept the fact that I chose to take Journalism as my major.
Always dreaded bout even thinking that I'm doing something that I totally have no clue about.

I remember accidentally watching shows with relation to what I was studying.
That show And I Hate You So, starring Kelly Chen and Aaron Kwok. Somehow, I got my inspirations from Kelly of what a journalist is. Loved that show anyway.

And every single show I watched back then somehow or rather had connections with Journalism? Freaky. But that was how much it was haunting me.

Til the day we were asked to choose where we wanted to go for Industrial Attachment, I was still dreading the fact that I would be a journalist to be.
I didn't want to be where I was sent to. Whined and complained so much on the first week.

But somehow when I was done with I.A. I had some weird fire burning in me that I wanted to be a journalist after all !

Gosh..

And right now, I'm chasing something that I want so much, but just simply can't find an inlet to it...

Few people I want to thank :
Aunty Jacky and Joanne. The greatest encouragers.

Most importantly, my Father in Heaven for giving me strength to pull through every hurdle I came across.

Just keep praying for me.

M-eat-ting

Randomly got called to join a meeting.
No relations to me.
The reason was, since you can write well, you take the minutes la.

What choice I had...?
Thought I wanted some time to lay-off and chill.
Just to think things over.

I really want to just S-T-O-N-E.

But watching them somehow made me smile a lil today.
Wish I was as laid back as them.

Khairy was just happily eating choclate, Huzai having a camera frenzy, Talib blur as always, Faruq look quiet but actually dying to talk .. Hm.. today, Nazri's rather quiet.

*sighs*











I slumped in my sit.
And it started to rain.
I wondered more, how am I going to catch a cab to go home.
In the end I got offered a ride. To be sent all the way HOME !

Back to my room.
Back to thinking again.
Wish my brains would just stop thinking when it reaches home.
Really wish it did.

I really want to get my life back :(

Untitled Hymn (Come To Jesus)
by Chris Rice

Weak and wounded sinner
Lost and left to die
O, raise your head, for love is passing by
Come to Jesus
Come to Jesus
Come to Jesus and live!

Now your burden's lifted
And carried far away
And precious blood has washed away the stain, so
Sing to Jesus
Sing to Jesus
Sing to Jesus and live!

And like a newborn baby
Don't be afraid to crawl
And remember when you walk
Sometimes we fall...so
Fall on Jesus
Fall on Jesus
Fall on Jesus and live!

Sometimes the way is lonely
And steep and filled with pain
So if your sky is dark and pours the rain, then
Cry to Jesus
Cry to Jesus
Cry to Jesus and live!

O, and when the love spills over
And music fills the night
And when you can't contain your joy inside, then
Dance for Jesus
Dance for Jesus
Dance for Jesus and live!

And with your final heartbeat
Kiss the world goodbye
Then go in peace, and laugh on Glory's side, and
Fly to Jesus
Fly to Jesus
Fly to Jesus and live!

***
It speaks to me so much...
I cried listening to it...

The song above - A dedication to Aunty Jen Peng.

One of the greatest I've known.
She saw me grow up, since I was in kindergarten.
I still remember looking up at her daughter, June.
She plays the piano really well.

It felt like it was only yesterday that I said I wanted to take a picture with her and Uncle Kam Hong, just a few days before they went back to Hong Kong to continue their mission.

It was Chinese New Year. We went for a day of random visiting.
So Lydia's house was the accidental house where we didn't decide to go in the beginning, but since it was only next road to JongChern's we went to help them finish some food.

Looking back at how happy a couple she and uncle KamHong were. It touched me great.
I recall going to church every Sunday from Sunday School til I was much older.

Til one day I found out that she was down with cancer.
But I knew, everyone knew, she would be able to fight it.
And she won.

I just didn't understand why it attacked her again.
Just as she was beginning to pick up with life.
Just as she was smiling once again.

Everything seemed downhill. I never thought she'd leave that fast...
But I guess, God knows best...

I will always remember the smile on her face when she saw me that day.
'You're all grown up' with that she gave me a hug.
That smile, was the warmest and still is.
When I asked to have a picture taken with them, Uncle Kam Hong actually said, 'We could adopt another daughter since we already have two!' - I was touched...

I will miss her. Yes I will.
And I know too, that she will be looking down on me while she is resting in heaven.

Pressing on Toward the Goal

12Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. 13Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead
14I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.
15All of us who are mature should take such a view of things. And if on some point you think differently, that too God will make clear to you. 16Only let us live up to what we have already attained.

*She hopes to smile soon...

Glued

2000 over pages for me to browse.
2000 over pages of creative photography.
2000 over pages for me to drool over.
Erm, that's multiplied with the many other sites I have yet to visit.

I think I'm glued-stuck to stock photography sites.

Just simply enjoy staring that photographs posted on the sites and gaining more and more inspiration to capture moments or maybe just FOOD.

I have a thing for white space. Any photograph or print ads that has ample amount of white spaces would immediately catch my attention.













Hm...somehow, I really love the camera and I really enjoy food.
I call myself rubbish bin. That's cause I am a 'DBKL' for most friends who out for a meal with me. Always end up finishing all their left overs. See why I can't fit into my clothes properly.

***

Today, I'm slightly lifted.
I am still down.
But thanks to that one hour conversation I had with Aunt Jacky, I'm a bit better.

The way she describes and looks at things, its simply amazing. Its just so her and unique.

I remember her telling me, 'God works uniquely, not weirdly. Its you who works weirdly' That was after I told her, 'I guess, God works in very weird ways...'

She also said something bout my job right now is a just side dish and to get to the main dish, I have to work harder to achieve it. She reminded me to be happy with the side dish now, as its a happy side dish.

Half way through, she asked if I would rather prefer the happy side dish now, or would I prefer the cruel main dish. We both just burst out laughing.

I find it amazing, at how I can talk and laugh with just anyone.
Touched at times. Once Aunt Jacky said that she really found it very interesting to talk to me as I managed to connect to what she was relating to. For our age gap that is of vast difference, she found me amazing.

That made me remember a long long winded chat with my bestfriend's grandma. Though I couldn't really understand what she was talking about due to my incompetence with the Chinese language, I had a couple of laughs here and there. I cried quite a lot at her funeral...

Laughing and joking with the maids of my many friends. I felt like an in sight to a whole new world. An in-sight to their world as maids. Eh, I get free head massages whenever I have head-cracking migraines.

I still miss the company I used to have on the cellphone. Its almost like losing my bestfriend... :(
Well he did kinda replaced my bestfriend. He really did. I have faith in him, that he will one day be the joyful one I once knew and will be happy with his life once again. Take care dear

CinnamonLatte

Since the promo of the Cinnamon Streussel Latte that Starbucks had, I've been dreaming of drinking it again...
When they had that promo in March, I think for almost a few months, I drank bout two cups in a week !

Yah, that's how much I like Cinnamon.
Then they stopped it.
Missed it since.

Still remember drinking it while I had to study for my finals.
Sitting in Starbucks, writing my own notes, sipping the spice filled drink.
Ouh so yummy !

Friday, randomly stepped into Dome with two colleagues.
After a hard day's labour of lifting wooden cabinets, my shoulders are aching now. Getting numb at times. Gosh.

When I saw the drink's menu, saw Cinnamon Latte, immediately wanted to try it !
And I didn't regret ! So yummy ! The milky creamy taste of that single shot of espresso topped up with frothed milk,stirred with a sprinkile of Cinnamon !

But it caused me a whole night. Yeah, wernjun can never sleep after drinking coffee. Unless if I was dead dead tired.
But I was happy that I know to find my favourite latte !

I can still taste it now , hehe.

Just Felt Like It












siaosiao @ 4:12 AM (0) bla it

Stop & Look

Random thoughts while I was in Malacca.
The place brings back so much memories.
Memories that would never repeat itself.
No matter how much I wish.

That Portuguese restaurant we went to where both our hairs almost got blown out into the sea. Both wearing the same spaghetti top we both had bought together few days before we went to Malacca. The restaurant, built on stilts, which meant we were on top of a rough sea. The sea breeze was simply SO strong. Regardless, we had a great meal of traditional Portuguese delights.

I miss my best friend.

The last I went to Malacca was a trip to the Zoo to complete a Broadcast project.
It was almost exactly a year, now I'm back there again...

Malacca re-visit.
