ROBOROVSKIEHOWHEUYUIEWUEK

Why are pet's name -- particularly some kind of hamster -- so hard to pronounce? Isn't it wonderful to just call them by their nicknames:
1. ROBOROVSKI -- ROBO / hammie
2. Shetland Sheepdog -- Shelty /doggie
3. Kuai -- turtle ( *attention to the guy who thinks he is intelligent*)

OK, sorry for wasting your time. Hahah...

You are Magnificent

Who compares to You?

Who set the stars in their place?

You who calmed the raging seas

That came crashing over me

Who compares to You?

You who bring the morning light

The hope of all the earth

Is rest assured in Your great love

You are magnificent

Eternally wonderful, glorious

Jesus, no one ever will compare

To You, Jesus

When the evening fades

You call forth songs of joy

As the morning wakes

We Your children give You praise.

Money Money Money

Gosh..... It's not going to be possible :(:(:(
"Registration is currently expected to be €345, the figure given in our presentation at Singapore NTU"
I'm planning to go to Ireland at the end of this year, just to watch the Worlds' Universities Debate Championship (WUDC) , but looks like tha chance is very slim. Checked the price ad it's nothing I can afford :(:(:( :

1. Rego: €345 = Rm1,718.73 (current conversion rate is RM1 = EUR 0.20)
This is inclusive of hotel . Don't know of meals or social night entrance. Should be included as well.

2. Air flight
Can't get the price. Can't fly on MAS or SIA because they don't go to Dublin. Am still checking on British Airways or United.Anyone has any idea on which carrier takes us to Dublin?

3. Food
Cost of living there ... Need to get some information from Lonely Planet, as well as Lake.

4.Weather
Read that a lot of places are close during winter ; plus it's the Christmas season in Ireland ; might not be a good time to visit Ireland then. Haiiihhh...

5. Miscellaneous
clothing , tour guide , travel plans , companionship of friends etc etc.

Lots of things have to be given consideration to. Without money, all these are hard to achieve.And even with money, without friends , parties like this won't be fun! I'm just wishing to have Neha with me... and I secretly hope she knows this.... hehehe.. She's the girl I had my first Tequila shot with at a *gay* bar in KL!!!Wait wait, I gotta send this post to her, maybe she wana go, then we'll be able to meet and chat relentlessly. Haven't seen her for so long, miss her dearly.

What happened last christmas?

Last christmas

I gave you my heart, But the very next day you gave it away

This year

To save me from tears

I’ll give it to someone special

Once bitten and twice shy

I keep my distance

But you still catch my eye

Tell me baby

Do you recognize me?

Well

It’s been a year

It doesn’t surprise me

I wrapped it up and sent it

With a note saying I love you

I meant it

Now I know what a fool I’ve been

But if you kissed me now

I know you’d fool me again

A crowded room

Friends with tired eyes

I’m hiding from you

And your soul of ice

My God I thought you were

Someone to rely on

Me?

I guess

I was a shoulder to cry on

A face on a lover with a fire in his heart

A man under cover but you tore me apart

Now I’ve found a real love you’ll never fool me again

A face on a lover with a fire in his heart

A man under cover buy you tore him apart

Maybe next year I’ll give it to someone

I’ll give it to someone special.

I stop understanding guys

There's a few things in this world you should not be worried about or even think about understanding them:
1. Men
2. Men
3. Men

Some of them are fickle-minded, egoistic, undecisive, while others are clingy and inconsistent. Some dare to tell me that I'm untampered and sarcastic and young. I thank God for all this. Hahhaa... God, please let me meet one man who isn't of the above.

Some important lessons for me today

1. Do not take silence as an acceptance of your own weakness.
2. Sarcasm hurts; even if it is to the most patient and condescending people.
3. Hold your tongue when you do not know who your opponent is.
4. Never assume everyone is the same as you.
5. Words hurt ; and it matters more when someone you care you that against you.
6. Attack ideas ; never the personality.
7. Just because you're young, it doesn't mean you can't make mistakes.
8. Just because you're young, it doesn't mean you can get away with mistakes.
9. Be humble always.
10. Absolutely no shouting, be patient when you try a point across.

Important Lessons to Learn in Life:

1. You'll learn lessons.
2. Lessons are repeated until it is learned.
3.There are no mistakes, just lessons.
4.There are no easy lessons.

Thought today.

The Christian life is something we do together. We are to build each other up with words. To speak to one another with psalms,hymns and spiritual songs.(Ephesians 5:19)

Old Friends' Meet Up

Who did I meet?( in no particular order)

Audrey R., Maithili V., Amridzah A.,Siew Leng Y., Emily Lek , Nita B, Alinawati M., Deirdre,Melissa Audrey,Mel-Ann, Kar Men W, Ai Lin G., Geraldine C, and a whole lot more girls. Ohh of course, not forgetting my own gang punya girls laaa... :)

What did we do?
1. Terrorise Starbucks in KLCC
2. Terrorise Burger King's after that
3. Exchange business cards and numbers
4. Gossip about the people in the school (teachers and students alike)
5. Talk about the latest happenings in each others' lives
6. Take pictures

How I felt about the whole thing???
1. Some of us changed so much(size horizontally and not otherwise / flamboyance / classiness / flair / extravagance / personality change / job environment) and yet there are some of us who looks like we just left CBN yesterday. Some said I changed alot , some said I just look as I do. Hmm...Probably the only things which didn't change were the loud-mouth me and also the ability to bore :)

2. Many of us now have more power to bargain, in every term : purchasing power becomes bigger( shown in all the apparel worn that day) , flirting power, romance power, knowledge power. The best part is : one of my friends are actually an Assistant VP with an international bank, i'm like wowwwww... Soon she will be flying a high glamourous life, while we would be stuck to our grounds :( But then again, what fun would it be when you have grown up too fast - leaving your lungs full of nicotine, poison from the liqiour and junk for your brain? :)

3. In another 5 years, we will have kids running around us when we meet again.

When will we meet again , girls?

Why do all mothers want their girls to marry so young??????

ARRRRRGGGGHHHHHH, MUM, let me tell you this: By pressuring me, you're just getting me into the mood of self-defence, and I don't want to marry EVEN MORE!!! EYah sure there's a nice guy around, yeah sure I should know him more, but why are you pestering me and force me to grow up? I just need some time off for myself : being single, enjoy the process of growing up -- all in just these few years of my life.I need time to learn about the big wide world out there, need time to finish off my studies, forget the dark memories, be in the stream again. Now, mum, why can't you understand this? HOw could you possibly NOT understand that your daughter needs to grow up? She wil eventually grow up, be a woman,marry someone good, have kids, yeah all those things will eventually fall into place. But not NOW, when she is still a kid that needs a lot of pampering! Just let her be...

What will heaven look like? Posted by Hello

Here’s to the crazy ones.

The misfits.
The rebels.
The troublemakers.
The round pegs in the square holes.

The ones who see things differently.
They’re not fond of rules.
And they have no respect for the status quo.

You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them,
disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them.
About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them.
Because they change things.

They invent. They imagine. They heal.
They explore. They create. They inspire.
They push the human race forward.

Maybe they have to be crazy.

How else can you stare at an empty canvas and see a work of art?Or sit in silence and hear a song that’s never been written?Or gaze at a red planet and see a laboratory on wheels?

We make tools for these kinds of people.

While some see them as the crazy ones, we see genius.

Because the people who are crazy enough to thinkthey can change the world, are the ones who do.

Life as someone says

“The real value of ease cannot be appreciated without having known pain,
nor of sweetness without having tasted bitterness,
nor of good without having seen evil,
nor even of life itself without having passed through death.”

Wana see some good food?

New Year Resolution ,anyone?


Err... I cant even remember what my new year resolution is last year, wahahahha... So how do I improve on this year? Well, I could always say I want to lose some weight, look prettier,earn more money this year, aim for promotion, look for a boyfriend (*ekkkkSSS*maybe not!!!) , complete my CCNA , do my MCSE, think about a good vacation overseas, help some unfortunate people, make the world feel better ...


Frankly, there's just basically two things in life which I hold verydear to my heart:

1. Stop making people feel worse

2. Help people feel better.


Simple stuffs which can be as elaborate as you want, but if implemented , benefits alot of people , including ourselves. Happy New Yah!Muaxxx

XOXOXO
