Earth Hour 2010

Earth Hour is organized by WWF to raise awareness of climate change issues. People who took part in the Earth Hour would switch off the lights at an agreed time to pledge their support for the planet.

I heard about this last year ago and my friends who went for the Earth Hour Walk at Caps Square were having so much fun. The t-shirt was nice too. I still remembered I was at a temple attending a funeral at the time when we supposed to off our light for an hour to support the DAY.

Fast forward to year 2010. This time, my Company also takes part in the effort to create the awareness. One day, they encouraged everyone to wear green. Today, they encouraged to off the lights from 12.30 to 1.30 during lunch hour. I wonder what would happen tomorrow.

So, 27 March 2010 at 8.30pm, remember to turn off your lights for one hour.

Lantern created here to show my support ... Nice mar ???

The day when i was surrounded with giant balloons ...

It was the 2nd Putrajaya International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta 2010. There, I got to see how they inflate the balloon. It is certainly not an easy task. The organiser had to inflate twice the black giant balloon !!! Besides the normal hot air balloon, we could see a lot of others weird one. I guess the famous one would be the Darth Vader ... I even spotted a giant jeans ... hehehe ...



We were worried about the weather on that day. It was raining on our way to Putrajaya. Luckily, the rain stopped. However, we didn't have the clear blue sky as our background to take those nice pictures. But, I was curious to know what is a night glow.

Well, I love the night glow. So colourful. The nite ended with a superb performance of the fireworks. We were at the right spot at the right time. Lying down on the grass, it felt that the fireworks were falling upon us. It's like millions of stars blinking above my head. Really unforgettable.

From night owl to early bird

Happened to come across this article not long ago ... Should practise this see if it works ... How I can not be a night owl ....

1. Make a nighttime routine
It say to find ways to let my body to relax and make it a habit or routine. Some of the suggestions are taking a warm bath, drink tea, reading or writing a journal. Hhmmm, ok, start reading or writing. Instead of a journal, a blog can or not ? hehehe ...

2. Turn off the TV and the computer
This is a bit hard for me. It's like a routine for me to on the PC before i go to bed. No wonder I become a night owl.

3. Lay off the caffeine
4. Have a light supper
5. Open the curtains

6. Know your motivation
Somehow this is quite true. It's not so hard to wake up early on the weekends as compared to weekdays. It's because i don't want to waste my precious weekends. :P

7. Make morning appointments
8. Give yourself an incentive


p/s: my first step to stop being an owl. finish this and off the pc. this is going to be hard ... hahaha ...

梁文音【最幸福的事】

I like this MV very much, touching. When you all pick up the telephone at the last stop, what will be the pictures that come out? When i think of it, so many good memories flashed by. Those memories really made me happy (^_^)

Happy CNY !

As someone put it, happy roar roar year !!!

Wish everyone as strong as the tiger, as 'bersemangat' as the tiger.

Most importantly, everyone ping ping an an, jian jian kang kang, kuai kuai le le !!!

平平安安， 健健康康，快快乐乐

Almost forget, happy valentines too !!!

See nothing, hear nothing, say nothing

How to brighten up the office ?

How to brighten up the office ? How to make it fun, more lively ?

Easy. Grab a few balloons and put on your workstation. The usual dull office atmosphere suddenly become a bit lively ... Not enough? Take more !!!

I think most of the people who pass by had a smile on their face when they saw this. My mood definitely improved after seeing this. Such a joy !!!!

Balloons anyone ???? (^_^)

立春 a.k.a Lichun a.k.a Lapchun

4 February 2010, today is 立春 day. Happy 立春 i guess... I didn't know what is this until a colleague talked about it a week ago. This is what i found on wikipedia:

Lichun signifies the beginning of spring in East Asian cultures. Chinese New Year is celebrated around this time. Farmers often celebrate the beginning of Lichun with special village events, worship and offerings to the gods and ceremonies for a blissful and prosperous new year. More ...

What makes me curious is the story of 立春 egg. It was believed that it is much easier to balance an egg on a smooth surface during this day. Usually, an egg will look like this when u try to balance it on the floor.



But, because of today, the eggs can stand on its own !!!! Well, I couldn't do it but my colleague manage to do it. Not one but 5!!! She advised me to do it delicately and softly. Ahaha !!! I failed (:<) Some pictures taken by her ... Thanks CFM!!!!

Should try it next year again ....

張學友 Private Corner "迷你"官方完整MV

Blabber ...

Just came back from a pre-CNY dinner with my ex-colleagues and seniors. On the way back, i saw this BIG moon. So big, so clear. At least, it made my night drive an interesting one. If the view is by the beach, it would be spectacular.

Lately, i got nothing to blog about. No fire, no desire, nothing ... Not even the desire to take pictures. I just want to sit there do nothing. Rot there and grow mushroom. Quarter Life crisis ka? Hong Kong trip which happened a month ago. Still haven't blog about it ... Should I write about it? Maybe I should ....

I should fire up myself. This is only the beginning of the year. Ganbate, CY!!! Ganbate everyone !!!!

Korean craze

Many years ago, friends were crazy about Meteor Garden, a Taiwanese Idol drama and i didn't understand what is so nice about the show. Surprisingly, I'm now crazy about the drama too but the Korean version. Funny plot, lucky girl, pretty boys, etc. What is there not to like about?

And, because i like one of the character so much, i was introduced with a 'reality show' where Korean artist were matched up and lived as husband and wife in a 'make believe marriage' - We Got Married (WGM). The 'marriage' that I watched was a marriage where the age gap is about 6 years. There were a lot of awkward moments and again, it was funny. It was fun at the beginning but it was kind of sad when it ended.


I love Korean show now. Anymore recommendations ? Hahaha ...

Next target ?

After Jacky Cheung and Lee Hom, I really look forward to this one ... Hhmm, i wonder whether they will come here to perform? Hhmmm ....

I'm a Panda

This morning when i woke up, I saw a panda in the mirror. I was practically looking at 'Patrick' the whole nite before i doze off. This always happen during the first week of school or work, when I am required to be awake at normal hours. Hahaha ... I don't know why, i just love to stay up late. Cam called me a 夜鬼 ... I love to study at wee hours. Work at wee hours. Clean up at wee hours. When everyone is sleeping and dreaming. Weird ...

NOw, I must make myself go back to this normal hours. I should off my pc now and go sleep. Hhmmm, maybe not ... kekeke ... Anyway, there is a saying, 早起的鸟儿有虫吃 ...

Walking through 2009 to enter 2010

It's another 12 more hours to enter the year 2010. Looking back at my last year entry, I felt lucky and blessed. Any difference this year? It's the same. Happiest moment would be my brother's graduation. Happy for him and my parents. My little brother now 'tai kor zai' already. I guess mom and dad now more relax. No worries, hmm, maybe me ... hahaha ... Well, we will always be the little baby in our parent's eyes. Mom always say i'm like an adult child. Do u think so?

I guess my biggest success would be able to drive to some places i wanted to. It should be a relief to my friends too since I live in a far away land. I miss those ride (:P) Other than that, life is pretty much the same. I enjoyed every moment of it. 'Bestest' parents and bro in the world. In the office, I have a great team, great colleagues that are fun to be with. And, my friends, I relish every minute with u all ... New born ah bi, newly wed couple. Our 'family' is expanding !!!

I would say 2009 is a good year for me. 平凡就是福 . Ready for year 2010? I do. I wish more travel plans to come. Vietnam and Sandakan, I'm coming!!! Taiwan, pls make it happen. Other than that, to do the best in everything, no regrets. Don't worry be happy !!!

Enough of my rantings. Happy New Year everyone !!!

Merry Xmas everyone !!!

Holiday !!!

It's time of the year again, when i can take long long long leaves ...
Time to be merry, to be happy, to travel !!!
Have been waiting for this trip for so long. Tomorrow will be the day ... MIckey Mouse, I'm coming ... Hhmm, do u think i will bump into JC ? hehehe ... think too much ...
I'll be back in one week !!! MORe pictures and stories on the way ...

It always makes me feel good to be able to enjoy such a sight ... If we are observant enough, beautiful things are just by our side ... Waiting for us to discover it ...

MV and Selangor holidays ...

Lesson learnt today .... Never ever go to Midvalley on Selangor holidays !!!! If you are stucked in the jam, don't pandai-pandai turn here and there. End up u will at the worst situation i think.

had been staring at the uncle in the taxi for very long. at that point of time, i am jealous of him having a newspaper ...

while waiting for the super long traffic lights ...

Saturday on my way to fetch Cam, I saw one 老婆婆 pushing her old bicycle cart in the rain. And, i told myself to stop complaining on how difficult life is and to appreciate what I have now .... CY, u are one lucky girl there ...

Last hunt of the year ...

Top Gear Hunt 2009, from Kuala Lumpur to Awana Kijal, Kemaman ...
The last hunt of Year 2009 ...
It was also my first auto hunt outside KL ... and, I find it interesting and fun !!!

When I heard about this hunt, my intention to join was Awana Kijal. I fall in love with this place last year, during a road trip with my buddies ... Games and travelling, what is there to say NO to? Maybe the 'deadlines' in the office but the tiredness was worth it, i think ...

Bubbly girls ...

Keef took the role as the driver and me, the navigator ... It's still surprised me that I able to direct them to Awana Kijal ... ehehe ... Not bad eh ... Well, there were some panic and lost moments ... Like, when

- we don't know how to go to Genting Sempah from Glenmarie. Luckily a dear friend sacrifice his beauty sleep for a while to talk us the way out ...

- we turned too early and lost our way to Genting Sempah ...

- i asked keef to turn into some housing area ...

- i was not concentrating on the tulips, and for a while, we thought we were lost in terengganu ... the pen punya pasal ...

While cracking our head, Bubbly Girls still know how to have fun during the hunt ... Especially, when it comes to FOOD !!! We were quite well-prepared ... Chips, hot dogs, coffee, milo, sweets, lekor, fruits ... How can a brain function properly if the stomach is empty, rite :P

McD breakfast still plays an important role in our outstation trip ...

See how well prepared PW is .. With dictionary !!! As for me, I think i've digested the McD breakfast ... Cannot think !!!

Well, at the end, we lost ... But, the way i see it is we win some experience ... Win some good times ... Going back to KL was as interesting as the day before ... This time we hunted food. Kedai Kopi Hai Peng, we finally tried the coffee and the toast. Hhmm, nothing special about the toast but the nasi dagang waas my first time ... Coffee wise, it's not that sweet which is good ...

Nasi Dagang

We still didn't take the highway straight back to KL because of the spicy keropok. From Kemaman to Kuantan to Teluk Cempedak, the keropok was no where to be seen. Finally, we saw it at a road side stall but the keropok was not crispy anymore ... :(

大家姐 with her 'assistant' and 'maid' on keropok hunt ...

Overall, I had fun on this hunt ... More hunt next year? Definitely ...

P/S: 1. Met a primary school friend in the hunt ... It's a pleasant surprise ...

P/S: 2. We still owed FL a Bentong meal ... ekekeke ...
