Owh no!

When we arrived at the Guoman's junction yesterday..the name of Guoman Hotel was no longer written on the wall..and with full of optimism mindset..I told Andz.. "No worries la..I think probably they wanna clean up or make a nicer decoration"..and Andz was telling me that.. "Mayb they shut down their operation dy??!"...

And the answer was..









Guoman was under renovation and it was temporarily closed down..sighhh..seriously..we were kinda sad and disappointed..but there's nothing much that we could do..and decided to look for another hotel...

So we gave Selesa Beach Resort a try instead of going back to Chorus again..and let me say this..the place was quite comfortable just like the name itself..but the people who were staying there were the ones who made the place uncomfortable to us..I swear..I felt alienated in the resort..

This is bcoz of the place that was fully occupied by most of the Malays..and when we went over to the beach in front of our room...there was a big group of ppl who were having their teambuilding..and we were forced to go to a certain distance..and the worst was..I really dont understand..how could this ppl swim in the beach with a pair of long pants and a big t-shirt..how oh how?!!

That was when I felt so different..I didnt really prepare a t-shirt and a pants for myself to get down to the beach..instead..just a pair of board shorts and bikini..can you imagine how aliented that feels to be the odd one..seriously VERY ODD one..

So..in the end..we changed our minds..and went over to the swimming pool instead since the beach was kinda dirty afterall..and surprisingly..there was only an Indian family who were in the pool..it was seriously peaceful...and I really feel comfortable there..undisturbed..Andz and I had quite a good time swimming in the pool though.. =)

As for our dinner..we actually went over to the town and bought pizza and fried chickens from PizzaHut and KFC..we brought them back to our room and had our wonderful dinner there while watching Mission To Mars..haha..that was enjoying... =)

This morning..we woke up really early and had our buffet breakfast which consists of only nasi lemak, mee goreng, mutton, porridge, sausage and hashbrown, omelet, kuih-s and cereals..fyi..none of them were even nice except for the sausage..and mayb porridge..Andz was saying that the nasi lemak's sambal was seriously spicy can die and it made him headache after eating a small portion of it...

Anyway..here's some of the pictures taken during the trip.. =)



I drove all the way there.. =)


The view of sunset.. =)


After swimming in the pool..


Ditch the guy and camwhore time.. =p


He wants to be in the picture too..


He deserve a kiss.. =)


The kiss with whats-in-his-mind look..hahaha


Whatever-look.. =p


After a nice warm shower.. =)


One more before the guy's done with shower... =p


Well..we've came to a conclusion that we will nvr ever go back to Selesa Beach Resort anymore..hahaa..since we were not so comfortable afterall..we will definitely go back to Guoman.. =)

Layyyyyy-zehhhhhhhhh

Yes..I am..basically I skipped work and went out for lunch with andz instead..not only that..even accompanied him for work a while after that...by the time I got home..I only managed to settle some of my work..ishh..more to follow up tomolo then..no more procrastinating..

But...














I'll be going to Guoman, PD again tomolo with Andz.. =p


And the sad news are..I'll havta settle my work along the way there in the afternoon..and I wont be able to check my results which will be released tomolo after 12pm..guess I'll just need to live with anxiety for another day till I'm back on Thursday instead..


Good luck guys.. =)

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

Now I understood why everyone's been saying that the show is nice and touching but boring at the beginning..I shall say..the storyline is way too lengthy..its like three hours..and the story of Benjamin in his childhood period is too long..I guess it started to get more interesting when he's in his midlife..BUT..overall..I do like the show alot..seriously its so meaningful..alot of things that could be learnt about life from this movie.. =)

Not to mention..its Brad Pitt..he made a good job carrying the role of Benjamin of course..plus..he's hot during his mid-age.. =p

Although this movie did not manage to achieve the Oscar for the nominations listed..but it doesnt mean that its not good enough..I'm sure everyone who watched it will have a great impact in their lives.. =)


Life isn't measured in minutes, but in moments..

Happy 19th Birthday, Beloved Ivan!

My beloved Ivan's 19 this year...like what Xian said..*this is your last year of age starting with the number 1..* You must admit..you're getting old..and yes..behave yourself..haha! =p

Whatever it is..you're still the same Ivan that never once failed to be there for me whenever I need you..still the same guy who will support me in whatever I'm doing..still the same guy who wont complain much despite having to fetch me everytime we are going out..and most of all..the same guy who knew exactly what I want and what I am thinking of all the time..the guy who understands me so much.. =)

YOU ARE THE BEST! =D

And so..HAPPY 19TH BIRTHDAY, IVAN! =)


The birthday cake..Pei Cee's name was written there as well..coz her birthday was one day before Ivan's..therefore..Happy Belated 19th Birthday, Pei Cee! =)




Birthday guy and I.. =)


Anyway..hope you'll know that I really appreciate you..alot! =)

First day in TalentEDge and everything's great..lotsa things were learnt from the director and my mentor..a great start indeed..most of all..I'm glad that I'm learning sth that I really like doing..other than that..nothing really matters..

Training's done..the core concept was understood..the objectives were clear..and now..I'm ready to jumpstart my career in the company..of course..I shall prove that I'm not much different from my brother..wakaka..gotta make someone proud.. =)

I'm officially a part of TalentEDge... =D

Whatever

When things are said and left undone..is it plainly fear or just merely trying to hide? No doubt..it does take a lot of courages..to step out of it..and trying to adapt all over again..is it for the better or the worse? Guess it depends on how the mind is attending to it..

There isnt any ratings for the levels of intelligence..but just the willingness and the worthiness of the steps taken..definitely no questions of rights or wrongs..but of course..each steps taken shall not perish the pure foundation that was firstly well-built..

On the other hand..there's no need of having to vow or promise for anything that was planned for the better..as long as there's understanding of the importance..and ensuring that the want is somehow a need..there will be visible light guiding along the pathway..

I believe in the saying 'Dare to dream and think big!'..of course..without dream..there wont be any will..when there's no will..there wont be any improvement..actions will not be taken..differences will not be made..but..plainly dream isnt going anywhere..therefore..dream must be followed with effort in order to achieve the desired outcome..

I'm pretty glad that some have already knew that I dislike wasting time on making comparisons and then getting involved in the jealousy game just like some of the others that cant stop themselves from committing to it..there's no place for me to pour my interest in and I would pretty much prefer focusing on my very own capabilities rather than just depending on another that was tagged along...

Be it slow but worth it..and most importantly..the meaning of it..

I really do admire people that have the same thinking as mine..but for the opposite..I just feel that it might be kinda sick to be even boasting around for something that might seemed to be 'borrowed'..

Valentine's Day

I bet everyone's wondering what I did for Valentines with my another half..

The answer is














nothing special.. =)





First of all..I dislike the idea of having to pay extra amount of money just for the sake of valentine's day..basically..its just an ordinary day..but since everyone's excited about celebrating it..everything became so expensive on that day itself..

For example..a rose that costs less than five bucks on a normal day..suddenly it costs about ten bucks or even more than that..dinner too not to mention..candlelight dinner became extraodinarily costly..and most of all..everywhere's crowded with people..I mean..couples..everywhere..on the street..dining area..shopping malls..



So on the eve..Andz and I actually went to Eilene's birthday party instead..bought scarfs for her..and had conversations with fellow Sabians that attended too.. =) sadly..she's leaving to Australia in just less than a week time..too little time left to be hanging out with her before she leaves..basically she's fully occupied with outings and reunions with friends and families..mine will be on Saturday with Edward..karaoke-ing for the last time till she's back after a year.. =)

*You'll surely be missed my dear.. =)*



As for Valentine's Day itself..I just spent it like ordinary day..dvd-s at home..and a normal late dinner with Andz..and since everywhere's crowded..we ended up having our dinner at Bangsar's Delicious..and ended the night with a car ride along with george and gf.. =)


Actually..we got a better plan of celebrating the Valentines..we postponed it to next week for a trip to Guoman again most probably.. =) time for a relaxing trip with Andz again..interesting..hehe..

---

Anyway..I'm done with Heroes Season 2 in just a day time..haha! but before I proceed with the Season 3..I gotta catch up with Andz on the Gem of Life series first..well..although I sounded like some kinda tvb series buff..but I'm not! I still think that English series are way better than the Chinese series..no hard feelings... =p Cant wait to catch up with Prison Break Season 3 and 4 too..

I wanted to be one of those who get to watch Marley and Me though..there's this Valentines package that costs about rm200 from GSC on 13th and 14th Feb..where there will be candlelight dinner and the screening of Marley and Me..but I didnt take the package although Andz was asking if I want it..

I just wanted to watch the movie..but its a little not worth it to be paying that much just for the sake of the movie itself..what if the food isnt that nice? hmm..and so..I've decided to just wait for the normal screening next month.. =)

---

This evening I've suffered from serious stomach cramp again..after for years it didnt happen..basically..I managed to see alot of stars around me for quite a few times..especially when I stood up after sitting or squatting..thank God I didnt faint due to that..just close..

And thanks to Andz for his concern and care..I was back to normal now..haha..its not him that made me feel okie..its the pills that he bought for me.. =p but yea..without him..there wont be pills..and I really appreciate it so much! =)

*Thanks a lot my dear..=)*









Maybe I was stupid
For telling you goodbye
Maybe I was wrong
For tryin' to pick a fight
I know that I've got issues
But you're pretty messed up too
Either way I found out I'm nothing without you

Cuz we belong together now, yea
Forever united here somehow, yea
You got a piece of me
And honestly
My life would suck without you






*you know its true.. =p*


<3 ya! =)

Latest updates!

Since there's high demand of reader asking to update my blog..here I am..giving the latest update..haha.. =p

First of all..

Continuation of group pictures taken during the webpage presentation few months ago.. =p (I know its kinda outdated)

---

The reason I'm not updating my blog is bcoz I'm busy with the finals..yea..a week before cny..I was busy studying and hanging out as it was the study week..then..cny holiday for another week..and then..finals for the whole week..

Unfortunately..tuesday's marketing paper was postponed to this coming tues..crap..

And more unfortunately..I was down with throat infection..a serious one..on Friday night..the pain was unbearable that I couldnt even get to sleep throughout the whole night..couldnt eat..couldnt drink..and worse still..couldnt even swallon a gulp of my own saliva..wth!

It continued till yesterday morning..and the pain had even caught me in tears..craving to consult a doctor with hope that the pain will be vanished..

Owhh..did I mention that my poor brother was down with throat infection like me too?

Yea..even worse..he was down with fever as well..

So..both of us went to clinic together..and then I sat for the sociology paper in the afternoon..

Luckily..with the help of the medicines prescribed..I'm feeling much better now..almost fully recovered.. =)

---

Cny is coming to an end..although there wasnt much gambling around this year..plus..there wasnt much luck too..but it was indeed enjoyable to be shared together with family and friends... =)

The reunion dinner with jokes and laughters..reminiscing the childhood moments that we shared together was fun too..

Hopefully everyone had a wonderful cny celebration this year..

Happy Chinese New Year! =)

Owh..before that..
