what makes you happy in life?
Have you ever thought that? Honestly, me neither..Is it a happily-ever-after marriage? Tonnes of money? Caring and loving family members? Well, some things are not measured by how successful you're in life rather how successful you're are emotionally. When your emotions are happy, the impossibles will be possible...I never knew how important it is to be happy until today...I fell down numerous times and I still managed to stand strong regardless of what life throws in to me..I have my regrets but there's no point of regretting what you've done or what you should have done instead make your life happier and fuller in the future..Put the past behind...I know it is easy to say but doing it is rather hard..there's no exception for me either.Sometimes when bad things happen to you, you will start thinking back of what has happened in the past..That will lower down your spirit...You try your best to change things again and again but the result is not as good as you think...It is tired to make the best out of you every single day...From the time you wake up in the morning till you put yourself to sleep...Sometimes you just want to erase all the nightmares that you have that keeps haunting you everyday...

Jess's wedding post
Attended Jess's wedding dinner in Paradise Hotel. Event started at 7.30pm and as usual I was late but only 15 minutes:-) They served 8 course dinner and 'not too' bad I say but I prefer burger tepi jalan lagi:-p..Boyfie went along as well with some other Dell colleagues...It was fun but tiring though...Delon was tipsy due to the unlimited wine and beer served(he had his fun la)..And his face was red..Nelly as usual, laughing at him...The dinner ended at 10.30m and all of us headed home...
buying a house is not like A,B,C
Planning for a house is not like munching almonds. Just choose and pop into your mouth. I've seen a few houses around(apartments, condos) but none manage to capture my interest yet. Price might be good but the condition (area, interior, etc) doesn't make me go aaww and when the price is like 'roof-top', the house is so beautiful...Landed houses in Penang is like the 'highest-tower-in-the-world' unless if I'm a tycoon's daughter....Well, it's better for me to still do some searching before rushing into any decision...Don't want to regret later..Houese built y IJM and Ivory is so 'pretty' but I can't afford that kind at the moment...There's a few things I want to settle first before getting into marriage so that I don't have to still renting a house later on...A car and a house..Not to brag, but if I have any extra cash...including help from daddy;-), I'd get a Honda for myself. My current obsession is the Honda City/Civic...But for a start I would go for a Vios but BMW would still be my preferred choice(even my own boss don't drive BMW..hahaha)... Well better put things together first instead of a last minute thing...
15th Anniversay
Met with one of my classmate after work. Discussed about our project which due next Wednesday..Tiring and sleepy...
Anyway, my company celebrated our 15 years Anniversary in Malaysia so there were some activities in cafe. Dancing, singing, and launching of our new official song for the company. Singers were among our company's staff and winners of the 15 years Anniversary Official song competition (m not gonna upload here). They have to create their own lyrics and beats...Didn't know we have such talented people in the office..I didn't manage to record the whole song. Just part of it....The whole event lasted for 1 hour (people have to get back to work ok,not that we're on holiday)
One of the staff sang Norah Jones's made famous song 'Don't Know Why'..She was damn good...
strength within is the fuel
Anyone can give up, it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's true strength.

I'm darn tired today. Work till 5pm and then class at 7pm. God please give me the strength. Had a great night of photography with BFF yesterday. I hope she enjoyed my company and thanks darling for the gorgeous photos. Waiting for her to upload them into my Facebook. We'll do it again next time and next destination will be Batu Feringgi...Ahahah..Kononnya pro photographer la...As BFF is still learning on how to use her DSLR, I volunteered to be her so-called 'model'...Model yang pendek...Xpa la..Pendek pun jadila...And I miss Along(she's in Sabah I think). Thinking of going back to Singapore this coming January 2011. Been 2 years since I last visited my aunties, cousins and uncles...Hhmm...The family be spending the almost-2-months school holiday in Singapore starting next month.
*and should I cut my hair short or keep it long and then go for wavy look??

weeekend activities
Attended the USM Grand Scholarly Debate yesterday at Dewan Budaya, USM. It was a whole day event (9am-5.30pm)..Topic of the day was Are We Lacking in Economic Strength To Become A Develop Country..Topic was interesting but some speakers made us doze off for a while... Food was provided(brunch, lunch and tea time). For Graduate School of Business students (mainly MBA's), we are required to pay only RM50..For outsiders, fees will be RM250(with some extra goodies and not just the recycle bag).. Food was good and catered by Selera Wawasan Catering (near Sungai Pinang)... We also receive goodie bag (a recycle bag, note pad and a pencil)...One of the speakers was Y.M Tengku Tan Sri Dr.Mahaleel Tengku Ariff. His speeches were good and 'lively'. Other invited speakers were Y.Bhg Senator Tan Sri Amirsham A.Aziz (National Economic Advisory Council), Y.Bhg Tan Sri Dr.Sulaiman Mahbob (Chairman of the Malaysia Industrial Development Authority and Industry Advisory panel member of GSB), Mr Charles Ireland ( President of Malaysian International Chamber of Commerce and Industry), Mr Jonathan Addis (Chairman of the British Malaysian Chamber of Commerce). Tun Mahathir were suppose to be one of the panelist but was replace by Mr Hashim Mohammed( Industry Advisory Panel member for GSB) at a very last minute due to health reason. If he were present, it would be definitely a grand debate:-)... Event was divided in to 2 session..Morning and afternoon and attendance were taken twice as well (to avoid student cabut from the 2nd session, people like me:-)).
YM Tengku Mahaleel having light conversation with some of the students before starting of the second session debate.
purchase of the month
Got this portable speaker (with subwoofer) in Tesco. Got it on sale for a price of RM52.90..Cheap isn't it..Was reluctant to get it at first but everyone in office was talking about it.... It seems like everyone wants to get it. So called boyfie and brought him along that night itself. I didn't get to actually use the speaker yet except the time when I get it tested before paying for it...Might get another model also but same brand...
updates...
Pictures were taken during TM CR Program for Community and Environment 2010 talk in the auditorium
Falling in love and having a relationship are two different things.
Sorry for the lack of update for the past 2 days. Been busy with workload and projects. Anyway, today is my 3rd year anniversary with boyfie and we ate Shauban for celebration*LOL*.. Have planned a few things but haven't had that time to do it. So we decided to postpone the celebration to another day...Maybe when both of us manage to get a leave...Unless if I have my own company..Ahahaha...Nothing much during these 2 days...
blessing of the day
God will not permit any troubles to come upon us, unless He has a specific plan by which great blessing can come out of the difficulty.
say grace
Not what we say about our blessings, but how we use them, is the true measure of our thanksgiving.

I admit that sometimes when bad things happen especially when it happen the entire week, feels like everyone and everything is going against me...I'll ask God 'Why is this happening?'.....I never understood the obstacle that He has thrown in for me...But as time goes by, I understand well... I try to take things one step at a time rather than doing everything all at once when I myself know that it is out of my capability... Last time, I do things so that people will like me and I didn't realize that even though people might like me, that doesn't mean they accept the way I am..They might be talking bad about me behind my back and smile nicely in front of me...I admit I bought friendship... Soon I realize it was wrong and I got my sense back...I know that I'm a nuisance, freak or a fussy to certain people but that's who I am. Yes, I do pick each strain of hair on the floor, and yes, I don't like the sink to be damp wet...The point is we can't change people if they themselves doesn't want to and I'm still learning to be grateful with what I have and yes I'm just a normal human who can't run from making mistakes...Who doesn't right???

Watched this movie earlier...And damn have I read the online reviews wrongly???....It was boring..Throughout the show, I was like 'When the hell is this movie gonna end??' I was falling asleep halfway (even though I had my 3 hours sleep in the afternoon)Basically this movie is about soul-searching, making decision and knowing what you want/scare of in life (something like that)..Maybe the reviews that I've read is from a writer who pretty much favor this sort of story line..Not for me...But it seems that boyfie enjoyed it (coz its weird as I know he likes to watch movie with fighting/adventure scenes) . On the way back we tapau Burger King..They were closing and left only whooper burger (we bought it anyway)
*Some are just hard to teach no matter how many times you try to teach/tell them...So don't waste your time spend on this kind of human...Its just a waste of your time seriously...
