Sepang Gold Coast 2010

Once again, I was back to this beautiful shore. So happy to be back once again to visit this west coast of Malaysia as the beach is really clean and the sand was very... sandy? :) Can't believe within these two days, i've made my ways back to two different places with different people. =) Me! Happy! =D

So, off we started our journey to Sepang Gold Goast with housemates around 4.30pm. An hour journey made it just perfect for us to hang around there while waiting for sunset. ^^ Beautiful orangy sunset was spectacular. I always think that sunset is very romantic. Just nice for couples. Haha! =) Well, we had two couples this time. Haha! Anyway~~yesterday wasn't really hot to me, it's evening sun with the touch of sea breeze. The air was quite cooling during sunset. Nonetheless, we were all sticky and sweaty after playing sea water and sand :)

Chinese New Year ambience near the seaside.

I love this! :) It's actually recycling bin. =)

super kampung and traditional style with the mixed culture of malay and chinese. =)

the skyline around 6pm.

sun was still strongly shining the earth making the sea water to be golden.

Finally.

Don't you think it really looked like the egg? :)

I felt the warmth and calmness.

keeeeeep... holding... on...

Hehe! YeeSang dinner with housemates later on

Yummy food at reasonable price. =)

That's all for our Saturday! Me had fun with everyone of you. =)

What is bliss to you?

Bliss is when you know you're not trespassing your life but you're walking through your life journey with people that you love and making it a walk to remember.

Often than not, we may think that we need nobody. We can withstand anything. I always salute people with such thought. I thought these people must be super independent, without needing anyone in the world. Unlike me, i am a gluey person. I need people to be around, to love and be loved.

Got shocked over the news of a fellow ended his life over his mum's death. Come to think of it, did he have the purpose of life? He lived because of others? Hmmm. Such a deep thought over it. We mustn't just live for others. We have to live for ourselves, by not neglecting people around. Yes. We must live for ourselves. Remember this. It's very crucial to know what we want in life, or who we want to be. Maybe some think that it's ambiguous. Future is a piece of grey cloth. However, i guess it's a life process that we have to go through. To plan and to take things one step at a time.

Many times i listened to the stories of others, I whispered to myself, "Shan Na, you have nothing to complain about. Treasure your life, treasure people around you." I am a positive girl. I think I really am. I am not a person who runs without failure. I bumped and i got up. Life doesn't wait for you or pause any seconds for you to be up. I am ready to learn, to fall and to get my butt up again. Whatever it may bring, I must go along with it and live my life to the fullest.

Thank you those who shower loves to me, pamper me, tolerate me, angry with me and forgive me. You all have painted a picture in my heart, and making me feel complete.

photography session

Days ago, we had photography session for our bulletin and counselling unit purposes. So, what did we have? Thanks to colleague SueAnn, our camera girl of the day, who was busy standing and squating up and down just to shoot our students. :) Apart from that, the four of us got to shoot a few professional and happy photos. Haha! Below is the silly us. Fancy SueAnn did an editing over this pic. All of us were thrilled and delighted over this pic :) I love this pic a lot.

Revisit! =)

It's public holiday today. :) Made a visit to Botanical Park with Amy and Kershin to kill some calories of CNY. Maybe it's already turned out to be fat in the body ady. Well, it's ok. At least, there's an exercise and some rapid palpitation through cycling. Haha! Plus litres of sweat! :)

I always love cycling. I think cycling brings me lotsa memories. :) It's my 2nd trip back to Tmn Pertanian. Still, no chance for Skytrex! *roar* I am waiting for my housemates to play Skytrex! When will it be? =( Anyyyyway... today we had fun, despite of the torturous early morning get-up-from-bed thingy. Hehe! It's my first time outing with da jie and er jie! :) mother couldn't make it. terrible.

Check out the sweat that Amy had for herself. So proud of her. @_@" Haha! She seldom... seldom sweat in an exercise manner. Fyi, i am her "sports advisor" without prior notice. =_=" We planned for exercises. Haha! I just tot it's an amazing scene. Haha! :)

4 seasons house is a must when u step your feet into botanical park. This time round, it's WINTER! :) with the temperature of -2, your sweat could turn out to be the snow. @_@"

had a snap before entering the "fridge" with snowman and igloo, plus the snowy slippery ground. Mind you, we were sweating terribly during cycling yet we're entering the winter season house. @_@" i tot i'll be sick after that. XD

i tot this pic was quite pleasant. :) hmmm... quite like this pic... but it was slanted a bit to the left. -.-" didn't get to catch the "scenery" behind us. @_@" thanks to the unknown photographer. =X
happy?
by the pond.
previously, we didn't cycle to this area.
This time round, it's quite a worthwhile experience to get in touch with our mother nature once again. :) check out the reflection of the treeeeees and sky!:)
=) trying to meditate in a failed posture. kershin loves this tree a lot. =)

Paintball or painball? =D

didn't play it but we watched ppl played. Haha! quite challenging!

this is another attraction that i missed out last time!

but this time round... ngek ngek ngek! :) i took all the shots that i want! =D

it's PADDY FIELD!

super green with such a kampung styled park! =)

there's a few white lalang by the paddy. Kershin said she's the one who blew the lalang without bothering how strong the wind was. -.-" let her be, as long as she's happy. Haha!

Luckily, there's no casualties from our side today! :) Amen! *we witnessed a guy and a girl fell down from the bicycle with the guy's nose bleeding like water pipe!* faint.

Thanks for today. =) Really appreciate the time we had together. Haha! Lotsa laughters and some casual chit-chatting. It's a form of bonding outside of office as well. =) Honestly, i don't mind going there once more. Any takers? :)

the KL version

Upon the arrival to KL, we had another round of cny celebration with the council peeps. We did a combo package at night. Hehe! House visiting (which they've done it from morning until I reached KL), reunion dinner, celebrated Steph's bday, played mafia and gambling-*exlusive me*.

I have to say, it was a laughful jaw-tearing night. It's been long since we gathered and makan-makan! I mean, big makan makan and had so much of laughters! :) I enjoyed myself lots. Thought it also supposed to be Steph's bday surprise, god knows, it wasn't really. Haha! Nonetheless, all of us had fun! ^^ *muacks*

I believe it's the 1st time we had cny reunion dinner together. =)

CNY: Friends Menu

Friends, to me, are like my companions in everywhere I go. They may not follow you 24/7, instead, they follow you with their hearts. It always run just once a year, to have cny reunion with the Convent girls. I couldn't remember for how long we have done this but i guess it has been ages since we know each other. There's a minor transition of our CNY gathering. I could still remember how we chased over a bus together just to knock on friends' door for CNY house visit. How we managed to sit in everyone's house and to greet aunties uncles. =) Awww. It was memorable and sweet.

reunion dinner- steamboat (before)

*burp* after

Now, we no longer practise house visiting. Hard to gather the best day for everybody because we all have our commitment towards our family as we grow older. Nonetheless, we never NEVER failed to flock us together. Be it just a yumcha session or a reunion dinner. Thanks to the annual CNY organizing chairperson. I am happy to meet everyone, even though it was just one night thingy. I believe all of us cherished the moment.

first day of CNY yumcha.

on the 5th, meeting some friends- house visit.

Yumcha with friends before we left from hometown the next day. These are the remaining ones in kluang.

This year round, we had steamboat which symbolized reunion. Well, at least, to me, it gave the msg as it is. :) Not only we had steamboat, we had yumcha session on the 1st day of CNY, followed by steamboat, then some mini house visit to some friends' houses. =) It was a year whereby i got to have a mixture of it and it was the longest break after 4 years (study years had no long break for cny).

celebrated Bernie's birthday! :)

I told a friend of mine, "No matter what failure or fall you encounter in your study/work place, do recall there're a bunch of us, supporting you and have faith in whatever decision you made, it will be the most pleasant encouragement that you get after all the disastrous experiences." =) I sense the change in us. We grow up. We give room to people. We think in others' shoes. We had changed for a betterment. I love you, girls. =)) I hope we can always maintain this.

introduced OH Cards to them and shared my experiences with them

hope everyone enjoyed the sessions that we had.

i believe they were the quality time that we had spent together.

Love you all! =)

CNY: Family Menu

Chinese New Year, the utmost important festive season that the whole world of chinese celebrates. *imagine a broader picture of the earth*. Same goes to Malaysia Chinese. Hehe! :) To me, CNY is always a time for reunion. Everyone sits on the round table which symbolizes the union or reunion of family members. CNY is always precious to us, that's when we get to peep on people whom we hardly meet everyday, to sit down updating each other, to eat lots and lots of snacks, to enjoy super yummy good chinese dishes and most importantly, to shoot photos endlessly and to review and laugh together.

We had steamboat feast during CNY eve at paternal grandma's house in JB. :))

First day of CNY

Grandma's home cooked food! =)

Some shots at home before heading to house visit.

Totally have no idea why dad was sooooo random with his tiger pose.

it was totally a big exclaimation mark for me when i shot this.

Haha! :)

the aftermath of dad's pose. O_O

the kiddos. =D

Had yeesang dinner on the 4th day of CNY with my family members. :)

yeesang dinner is always the routine for us.

This year round, CNY is slightly different without the presense of grandpa. We used to shout "Ah Gong! Happy New Year!" Instead, now we headed to kitchen and exclaimed it to grandma who's very busy cooking. It's special for me to go home. I strongly felt the urge of home when I was driving on the day before new year eve. Funny how this feeling was much more stronger than the pasts'.

A quick shot after dinner at restaurant. =)

aunts & uncles.

husband and wife. Haha!

yeesang was indeed a useful prop! =D

i didn't know why it turned out to be a yuuuuuumseeeeng!

grandma and me! :)

Just like what my colleagues discussed, the more you get older, the more you think about is your family members. Right now, they're all my priorities. Family always come first before anything. :)

my family during yeesang dinner :)

the big big us! :)

Always very looking forward in meeting u guys!

errrr... excuse me? =D

i thought that pic of mine as if i am having constipation. -.-

Kinship will always tie us together. It always do. :) Happy New Year to my family members! I hope our kinship will be as round as the dining table. I think Grandpa is smiling in the heaven. :)

Picture of the year: Cousin Gang.

How time flies. =)) Check out the lad and ladies!

played firework after yeesang dinner. Had many many shots of fireworks which we created through handwriting.

Grandma's house is always the best place for us to reminisce our childhood.

the wide field at the backyard was our territory.

It was totally pit dark at night. We used to be very very frightened to walk across the backyard. Now? Nah... just play along!
*LOVE*

Smiley. :)

Aunt insisted to have a nose for it.

Haha! =X

*LOL*!

Not to forget, a collage of our names! :)

Nana appreciates each of your presence *muacks*
