greeny day!

It's a day out to the green!

-Botanical Garden, Putrajaya-

The pigs couldn't get up on time, ended up pacing ourselves in the botanical garden under the hot sun around 1.00pm++. The garden was a lil bit pathetic. It wasn't really well publicised despite the fact that they do have wonderful greenery over there. I love to see the greens but if only the sun could hide behind the clouds a lil. The garden isn't very huge. In the end, we both realised how great Taman Pertanian is. With clearer signages, with more human. It somehow gives you the energy and motivation to walk a lil bit more.

feel like rolling up from the top to the bottom of this green carpet! =D

very cute =)



the plant labels are not completed. not every plant is labelled.

I think Putrajaya Botanical Garden can be improved a whole lot more better. With better signages system and with the flora fauna labels to give a better understanding to the tourists. Don't waste such a big field. Go green, Malaysia! =D I'll go back again if there's any chance, provided that the weather is good for a walk =)




it's a very suitable place to do self reflection

Thanks to the weather, we went to Alamanda and catch "Unstoppable" and we were even late for 15 minutes! That's another random thing to do sometimes when holiday strikes!:)

just soofei and i

A day out with soofei just for photoshooting purpose at UK Farm of Kluang. Been really into the blue, green and brown throughout the holiday! I always enjoy the presence of soofei, we chat, crap and catch up lots of things whenever we can. It's a personal time with a friend which i really appreciate. Anyway, i had a good morning with soofei and the nature. :) also, the super early breakfast with ern, meiteng and soofei! =) Really missing those days of casual and leisure breakfast, especially during the weekends when we don't have classes. It's the effort that really matter, that bring us together =)

meanwhile, enjoy some shots... =)

I enjoyed myself lots =) Hope you're too!

wanxin

Spending time with Wanxin can be real fun. She lightens up your heart a lil, just to play with her freely, without thinking anything but just to have fun with her. Love to listen to her laughters (priceless...) and she'll look at everyone and smile when all of us are quiet (even more priceless moment). Bet she'll be a real friendly and approachable girl when she grows up :) Wish she can grow healthily! :)) She's very happy that day when we went to meet her and her mummy! :) Had a girl-hang-out day! =DD

See how fast she grow? with 2 lil teeth! :)

she starts to crawl and flip here and there! =D

Wanxin is going to spend her 1st Christmas with us! :)

i can't tell the price of this photo :)

Oh btw, did i mention? She knows how to wave goodbye and "gimme 5!" by 2 lil hands of hers! Haha! Adorable to the maximum! :)

Porridge Sunday

There wasn't any special occasion but I guess it was a leisure Sunday breakfast with Steph. A very random decision after reading vkeong's blog. So, we decided to pay a visit to the fish porridge at Petaling Street. =) I love breakfast (but not the early waking-up feeling) with people.

Taddaaaa! generous portion of fishy!

it's my first time trying such a way to eat porridge.
dumped all the fish in, stir 'em all up!
At first we couldn't find the stall, it was quite hidden at a side. If it's not the blog, we wouldn't have known about it. :)

ooo.. and steph said this tongshui is very famous! :)

candid shot of us.

steph, it's been long to snap an abnormal face like this! ^^

then we jalan jalan at pasar seni.

my first time here, and she said i'm like a tourist. o_O

Various themes in Pasar Seni. I was amazed!

I love the trees! Bulat bulat! :)

bizi

There're a lot of things/people will be neglected or forgotten when all your times are given to the task, but not the people. It's a real bad habit. Big bad wolf! It's time for a change. I'm sorry.

I hate myself for using the excuse of "I have no time." :(

life stories with all the punctuations

Life is always filled with lotsa punctuation marks. God creates it such a way for us to explore life in a very unique way.

Sometimes, we give it a comma (,) because there might have some unfinished stories to further the sentence or some add-on to it.

Sometimes, we put it a period of full stop (.) because we know there's nothing much we can do for now, it's time for a completion for this phase of life.

Sometimes, we have ellipses (...) because it indicates a pause in life. Hmmm. We all do need a rest afterall. We ain't saint :)

Sometimes, we insert question mark (?) because we might bump into some challenges and problems in life that we have no idea about it.

Sometimes, we will see exclaimation mark (!) because there's always ups and downs in life. :) Whether it is a distress or a eustress surprise, it's all depending on the environment and the whole situation and your self-perception on things in life.

Just random. Nothing serious. :)

the adventure begins...

The scary short semester with its' schedule and stress level remains.

Fret not. I'm no longer a student :)

Being a staff for students is also a horrendous period because there're a lot of preparation to do. Many decisions have to be made and many many hurdles you have to hop, provided the presence and the absence of blessings from all. Haha! :)

Mind is wandering around when it's time to rest. The eyes are closed yet the brain is so active like the bumble bee. Indeed fully utilise the two hemispheres of the brain to think of two different events of life (which doesn't sound like a good news though).

Awards Day is over. It's been two years. How time flies. Reminiscing those days where I was still an emcee but this year round with a different role. Despite of all the stressors, it was indeed a very precious opportunity to learn and to get in touch with different people. Learned up some new skills and brushed up a lil of my event management skills. Well, it's good to start as a newbie and learn. Pick up from your fallen place and strive for betterment! Yay? :)

Next up, Mental Health Week is here! People! :) Come and support my students! It's time to return to the place where I belong with powerful charge! :)

Random thoughts

A friend mentioned in FB saying that

"A counsellor should appreciate the beauty of life and to treasure lives."

A simple phrase like that makes me ponder for quite a few seconds. Oh yes, life is forever beautiful when you think it is. :) All of us are the precious being, given a chance to live a life. Thus treasuring life means more than anything. Start to count your blessings right now because it will support you mentally, psychologically and emotionally.

"There's no second chance of living, but there's always a first day to start a living like the way it should be lived."

it's on the way...

Looking back on my posts, I think life has been quite eventful ever since I started working. It's always filled with pocketful of feeling, packed with ups and downs, failures and success, rocks and trees. It never failed for me to move on, to push a lil bit harder and to strive for a better result.

Dated back in someday, I told myself i'll go for 3 camps a year. It was one of my wishes in the list. Miri marked the 3rd camp for this year. To me, it is a special bonus. It's also a hard decision to juggle between both priviledged chances. Maybe some might find me absurb, come on, it's just nothing bout it. For me, it meant more than just a tiny peanut.

Sitting down and looking at those photos, then it only came to my realisation that I've achieved my lil wish in a very conscious yet unconscious way. Never did i realised I could come so far. For me, it's a great achievement, but it's never an ending note. I find camp is really the best avenue for imparting values to the students. Nothing beats camp's power. That's why I like them a lot. Nonetheless, I would like to try and explore some different ways too! :)

I'm blessed to be with great people during my projects. These people are forever helpful and kind. Plus, they covered my ass when the sky falls down onto the team. Plus, running a project always stir your thinking. It gradually makes me grow a lil. But then again, how long can this be? Well i always tell myself, it's time to be independent from people. Well, Miri was a great training ground for me :) to get away from my comfort zone and tried any means over somewhere you don't know, and meet someone you hardly know.

Just a thought.

Nothing emo :)

Selamat Hari Raya.

-.- and i'm having a flu.

out! =D

It was a happy Saturday. I brought Orange out for an expedition to Putrajaya. Merely with the purpose of sightseeing. Hehe! Of course, I was not just with a non-living thing (I don't wanna be schizophrenic), I have Amy with me too :) Anyway, we were supposed to be Malacca but the mission was failed! I don't care SDCU, u guys owed me once! heh! =(

ANYWAY! =D Had fun driving along Putrajaya, viewing lotsa lights, seeing how our country wasting electricty *oppps. Hehe! But Putrajaya is definately a significant landmark for Malaysia. I'm proud of how Msia has developed, and it's still growing. And yes, it was my first time stepping to Alamanda. I never been there at all although I went to Putrajaya for a couple of time.

This time round, we stopped at a few stations. It's my first time went to Istana Kehakiman. Spectacular building, kinda have the english-malay feel. =) Artistic, i would descrite it as. We had a few stupid shots. Sigh. If only my camera is good at night view and with anti-shake function so that some people know how to use it! *ngek ngek ngek! :)

thank you for making your time to crap with me:)

sunday it is...

Didn't realise actually I quite love Sunday despite of the blueness of the next day- Monday :) The circadian rhythm that I am having right now has officially adjusted to the healthy level where I wake up real early, even it's a Sunday, and sometimes i do sleep at super early hour like 9.30pm? =X

Anyway. I like the stillness of Sunday. Logically, Sunday has a milder traffic compare to weekdays. The hustle bustle is gone on Sunday! Less horns, less cars zooming in and out, which also results less polution and fresher air :)

Other than hanging out with friends on Sunday, it is also a day for me to do some serious reflection of the week through reading. For me, reading is so important because it really inspires me to strike for betterment in life. Therefore, for those who know me or who always go to bookstore with me, you know which section i'll be locating at- Self-help/ motivational area. Haha!

Through reading, you get to transfer a lot of information to your listeners, especially the audiences (students) of workshops or talks. :) I love to share the values and I guess i am in the direction of imparting values to them. o_O which i feel myself so old yet i am not, based on the true fact. =X Haha! :) i am young, still.

Sunday is also a time for family. Too bad my family is not with me in KL. Hope they'll be in the near future? :) My mum always like to stay in KL and she always wishes that we have our own house here -.- in which i guess it's like... a dream. @_@"

For lotsa people, Sunday is also a day of prayer. It's a day with God. It is also a day where a lot of community activities are held. :) I donno why out of the sudden i feel like describing Sunday but I know Sunday is always a good day to a lot of people out there. So, yea, Happy Sunday? :))

foodie!

A week ago- had dinner with Council Peeps! :) Supposed to celebrate Sek Teng's bday but god knows, he stood us up! *claps* You better watch out, HST! =P

the veggie is Sek Teng and Joey wanna eat him up! Wallop!

Then, it was WOW Food Fair in UCSI University. Supported my housemate's group product of the new invention of red bean tart. :) Overall, the food was superbly pricey. 10 bucks of coupon was very limited in terms of buying those product...

smiley red bean tart! :) brighten my day!

Same week itself, had a dinner retreat at Zanmai Sushi. Bloated stomach with superb Japanese cuisine. Love it! =D Thank you for that 50bucks dinner each and i feel so sinful after the meal =X

a must try unagi pancake! Slurp! :)

Also, couple of days ago, a random decision to hop over to Kopi Boy, a newly opened cafe nearby Leisure Mall. Great ambience. Lovely decoration. Lots of wooden platform and a tiny bit of greenery and with the sound of water (mini fountain). Food's great! Quality time with friend is always the greatest :)

the lil wooden cottage! :)

A very nostalgic video to share here which quite touched me heart when I first watched. The song entitled "I Turn to You" by Christina Aguilera. A very meaningful song for me, dedicating to all my loved ones! ^^ Enjoy! :)
