Postcard 不翼而飞事件

今天我和Jeng Mun, Chee Khong, 还有Ji Kwan一起去注册我们未来的公司。
Chee Khong再一次问了我们真的没有收到他从巴黎寄给我们的postcard吗?
大家都说没有。
他说他很心痛,因为它们很贵。而且是比较漂亮的,其他一起寄出比较普通的都有收到了。
我们的group有一个习惯,大家收到postcard都会拍照告诉寄postcard的人说我们收到了。
虽然这件事是CK比较心痛,可是我只是想记录下来我有过一张从巴黎寄出而没有收到的postcard.
而且他提了两次,所以他大概真的很在意吧。
CK,虽然没有收到postcard,可是还是谢谢你的心意!
但是我还是不知道为什么我们收不到。因为用过的postcard还可以recycle吗?

Update: 昨天(24/8/2017)终于收到了CK寄来的postcard。
大约用了2个月的时间吧。。。因为寄出的日期是29/6.
我第一时间就告诉了他。Mia也在同一天收到。

其实这还真的是很特别的一张postcard,而且也和之前的不同。
Ck,谢啦!

Turning 31 and another BIG project coming its way

I'm turning 31 this year and age seemed to affect me more and more because it seems to me that my life is not going anywhere and there are so many things that I would like to achieve but yet to be achieved.

Although I have been traveling quite frequently this year, but I just feel like there are a lot more places that I would like to go. 

Maybe because I wasn't able to travel last year which makes me wanting to travel so much this year.
On the side note, I bought my BKK and CM tickets last year.

Then, my friends and I have been planning to climb the mount KK early this year but it stayed in the planning stage because two of my friends weren't able to confirm and they are concerned about whether we have enough time to train ourselves and to get ready for it.
Until recently, I pushed my friend to make a decision because I think that now is my fittest time to climb especially I'm not getting any younger. It's now or never!
Because I'm the youngest now and while I was typing this blog, I'm getting older and older by seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, and years.

So I took the initiative to contact the agent that my friend gave and kinda pushed my friends to make a decision. Another friend did help and also booked the air tickets today! So, I'm going to climb mount KK this September and I have to train hard to do it. I have a little more than 3 months to prepare for it and I read mixed reviews online on how soon you should prepare for the climb. Since I have been going to the gym regularly since last year, I wasn't that worry but I am aware than I have to increase the intensity of my training so that I can have a smooth climb.

My brother said that I have had a very happening first half of the year and maybe I should considered getting married soon as well.
Hmm, I was wondering how can a person be that spontaneous with their marriage?

However, I was thinking maybe because of my health issues, I have been more and more spontaneous nowadays that I just want to take things easy and enjoy life while I can.
I used to stress myself out so much in the past in almost everything and I still do  sometimes, but I was able to tell myself to take things easy because I don't want to get sick anymore.

Wan Yin asked if I only have one wish, what would it be, I said I want to be healthy until my last breath. Because I realized health really is the most important thing in life that many people take it for granted. I will not for now, and hopefully, not in the future as well.

我要到纽约Central Park跑步去!

刚才在吃饭的时候脑海里忽然飘过这个想法。
一想到明年计划要到纽约玩就很兴奋!
虽然这个计划不一定能成,可是我还是期待它能成行。
这个想法会闪过我的脑海大概事因为我“年轻”的时候看过Bride's war、Enchanted等等的电影吧。。。
还有很多其他不同的电影也都在这里取景啊~~~
电影都把它拍得好美。。。
曲家瑞也说过她为了一个男生而在那里跑步。。。
不懂为什么就想要到那里跑步+野餐吧。。。
趁着午餐时间把这个写下来,又是回到现实的时候咯。

520 MOM

When I saw those posts on 520 on my FB wall, 
I realized that it was such a coincident!!
Because I purposely drove my mom to Genting for a lunch!!! 
Before you judged that it was luxurious to go to Genting for a lunch,
*indeed, it takes a lot of effort*
it was because my mom had a voucher for two person for an abalone meal. 
Considering that it'll take around 3 hours of driving back and forth, 
my mom was asking if this is costing too much effort for a voucher as well. 
She doesn't feel quite right to do that but I told her that it was fine. 
This is because I realized that I have been very busy with my own stuff and I didn't have time to accompany her at all. Before I have my active private practice and Olivia's presence, 
I'll at least go out with her in the weekend either for lunch or for grocery shopping. 
But as things get busier while she's tired from taking care of Olivia during the day,
she rarely wants to go out at night and we don't have the common free time as well. 
Honestly, I was too lazy and tired to go out as well. 
Therefore, I thought that it would be a great idea as well. 
Coincidentally, I have no clients today after 10am.
As much as I hope to be busier!
But I guess God planned this for us.
It seems that everything worked out by itself and off we went to Genting for the abalone meal!

Grilled mushroom


Chicken soup

My mom was cutting the abalone diligently making sure that it doesn't "fly" off her plate and warn me to do the same. ;p

Look at the abalone!!! 
First time in my life to taste such a big abalone all by myself!
IT's delicious although a lil too salty for me, it was very chewy too!
That's why my mom had difficulty in chewing them...

Dessert: Red bean mochi

Even though it was not a planned celebration, 
but I'm grateful that I did something special with her. =)

Pre-mother's day celebration with my sister and my mom at Chakri Palace in KLCC!
It's Thai food!

Fast & Furious 8 & First Outing with my Colleague!!!

Yesterday was the very first time that I head out to a mall with a colleague after working for a year and 8 months++ in this company.

By the way, I also got a new "roommate/room-colleague" recently. Therefore, we have more time to have some conversation and there were more interaction between us. Somehow, we got closer and probably the very first friend I make in in this job. I guess probably it's because she's open to a weirdo like me.
*On the side note, she said that she's a weirdo too!*

We have been talking about watching a movie together since she has this GSC credit card that offers discounted price tickets. TO my surprise, even movie tickets on a Friday night is eligible for discount!
It was such a great deal!
While deciding on what movie to watch, I thought maybe we can do Fast & Furious 8 since I have been wanting to watch but I just didn't get the right time to watch it.

Finally, we went last Friday night and we both enjoyed it!
Despite the fact that my brother told me not to watch it with high expectation, it was better than I thought it would be.
I think I kinda know how the story line of fast & furious series go, so I did manage to guess what was going to happen and it did go according to what I have anticipated.
Therefore, I guess the fact that they have decided to stop this series at 10 might actually be a good idea. 
By the way, it's heart warming when they choose to remember Paul Walker by naming the baby boy Brain. =)

The healing effect of saying goodbye

I guess I am not good and not used to saying goodbye...
I hate it when I have to say goodbye formally making it as if we are not going to meet each other forever...
When I was younger, we used to have farewell parties for friends furthering their studies abroad, when people leave a work place and or leave to work somewhere else and etc...
I never felt good when I'm saying goodbye in farewell parties...

However, I experienced something different this time round.
I went to the gym as usual the other day and this high school friend goes to the same gym and we often say hi when we meet in the gym...
Otherwise, we don't really keep it touch or meet outside of the gym..
Yet, the feeling of seeing someone familiar when I go to the gym does bring a certain degree of comfort to me...
At least I don't feel that I'm all alone...
I am a slow to warm up person, so despite I have been going to the same gym for more than a year now, I didn't make any friends.

Back to what I want to share, my friend approached me after the class and told me that she's leaving the coming Friday to New York for two years because of her work. 
As much as I was surprised since it was a sudden news, I felt "good" after hearing it despite it was a goodbye. 

I felt good because she took the time to tell me that she's leaving Malaysia and will be in NYC for two years. She didn't have to tell me really, but I really appreciate her taking the effort to tell me a simple goodbye. 
We didn't even have time to have dinner before she left!
But I guess that's the beauty of saying goodbye and it reminds me of how nice if all of us get to say a short, simple, and sweet goodbye to the people we love before we leave this world so that people who are left "behind" in this world get to heal from the lost. 
Sadly, the truth is we rarely get to saying this simple goodbye in a calm way. Rather, a lot of us left this world unexpectedly or denying that we are leaving while the people who are left behind are left with nothing but reminiscent of the happy times as well as sad moments. 

Finally, I hope that all is well for her in New York and I did propose to my friend that let's visit NYC then. I have never really planned on going to NYC for a trip, so does my friend. 
Throughout my life, I have always knew that I will visit Europe one day. But life seems to disagree with it and would like me to visit NYC before Europe and I have decided to just go with the flow and grab whatever travel opportunity that arise.

“精神粮食”

从同事的口中知道了一个FB Page,
看了那些人在里面post的东西后,
有大快人心的感觉。
因为里面很多人都说出了我的无奈和心声~~~
还有,
原来我不是唯一的一个啊!!!
有不少人都拥有和我一样的看法。
一开始,我以为只有我自己是异类,
而且是不是我自己有太多的不满和投诉。
可是当我发现原来其他人也一样被压榨着的时候,
顿时觉得I'm NOT alone!!!!!
虽然知道自己是一个怪咖,
可是当知道自己不是一个人的时候还是有莫名的快感啊。
而且有一个人还被迫得建立了FB Page让大家表示不满啊~~~
背后推动这个行动力的人/原因应该蛮严重的吧,
不然怎么可以把人逼到这田地呢?
里面也有很多指名道姓在骂的post,
很显然大家不是针对他,而是他真的很不可理喻!
老实说,读完了那些post真的有让我感到有疗愈的感觉。
他们帮我骂了很多我不敢骂的事情!!!
很开心!


Happy New Year 2024

 今年對我來說是一個新開始, 因為我真的要結束我“念書”的日子了。 想得到很久的master也在去年得到了。 但是我沒有想像中的激動,開心一定的。 我現在面臨的問題確實身份曖昧, 我必須重新定義我的專業身份。 同時我的生活也有很多的不確定性。 如果要說,感覺上3天3夜都說不完。 ...
