Nephew and muh trip!



This is my first time meeting my lil' nephew Brandon... LoL.. and he called me kau fu... (though it doesnt sound like that but yeah, he meant that!) He's really fun, and smart... I wonder how I was like when I was his age... He likes playing with spinning things.. e.g. wheels n helicopter's rotor. I think sis made him understand how to make decision by keep asking him questions.. which is kinda interesting.... can take a page or two from sis' book of growing babies. :)

Hello Kitty at the Taipei Airport. :) Had a 1.5hr break here. Walked around.... there was a GAMEZONE shop as well, with playable PS3 for try-outs. Tempted, but didn't...









Cinammon toast Crunch + Cheerios
......... and IN AND OUT BURGER.. lol not carls :P


Roadium... place where we went to Swap market on Wednesday morning.. Nothing much to see over there... till I saw the GC game I wanted. Zelda Windwaker... :D it cost USD15 and looks crappy.. Sister say its better to buy somehwere else (Which is true cos' I just ebayed the game)











These are what I found from Target.. :D
Taylor Swift!!! woot! LoL.. but kinda strange cos don't have Permanent Market inside... I didn't know she got another album already, does she?

Paramore... Thats about RM31.20. Kit Mun.. I rmb you telling me that their previous album sounds better....

Arrived


I reached Los Angeles on Monday 21st April 2008 , GMT-8.00

Will post more photos later.

the last night with Sparkle

I opened Nancy's Sparkling Apple Juice yesterday. I didn't really wanted to do it without her, but since the house is going to be sold, and the fact that leaving there by itself in the fridge alone for the next one month plus is not a really good idea, I decided to share it with my other friends. I wanted to like opened it with her and Kit Mun, but both of them are busy this week, with assignments and work. Next time I guess...

Anyway, we played 2 games of killer Bunnies and 1 Betrayal. Betrayal was interesting, but shame we couldn't do much... Chee Weng read the wrong haunt.. :P

We went home early, about 1.30am. Sent Chew and Hexiang home, before going to kaufu's house and watched MU drew with Blackburn! Chelsea is back in contention.. if they beat MU and MU slipped up again.

difficult times for Reds

I am worried about Liverpool. Hicks is fucking everyone up, creating the atmosphere that causes everyone to have no choice but to give in to his wants. I hate him. A lot more now than ever. If your read the latest article on his view about Parry, you will feel how he is manipulating his position to exercise powers and make decisions to pull and garner support for his helm.

He is a sly, and it is even more obvious in the latest article when he said his priority after receiving Gillett's share is to offer Benitez a one year extension... Sigh! How disappointing!! I am sure that the sole reason for him to make that statement is to push Benitez and fans to switch to his side. This is wrong. I can't understand why is he has so much say in everything when Gillett has the other 50%. If only he can exert more of his authority, that would be good.

The battle in Anfield would only end in a stalemate, unless someone gives in. I hope Gillett doesn't. No matter how good the offer is, I am pretty sure DIC can give a better offer. Again, another wonder why Gillett needs' Hicks' permission to sell.

I admit, Parry did not manage Liverpool better in finance. Yes, he could have done better in gathering more income money, and the new stadium should have been built earlier. But no Liverpool fans would blame him. We are passionate about our tradition and culture. And besides, its not to say that we are not able to support the managers' transfer kitty. Every year we made a good amount of purchase. On the stadium, it was delayed, unfortunately. But it was already in progress even before Hicks Gillett came in. Mind you, it took time to research and analyze options available and to receive the approval of the council. I think I am not wrong that the plans for the new stadium came in sometime during Houllier's era.. towards the middle-end. It is the right time to discuss about a new stadium as that is when Liverpool begin to exert authority in the League and Europe again. Not ideal to do it before then because its unrealistic (needless to explain).

My hopes? Somehow something kick the sense out of Hicks to let go of Liverpool and give it back. To WHO? David Moores, that Morgan guy, Gillett, DIC, Liverpool FC Fan club.. anyone.

Benitez? I hope he stays, but I find it difficult to believe that he will if Barca or some Spanish club comes for him. Maybe Spain too. But regardless, if he is moving on, so are we. No one is bigger than the club itself. Choices? Martin O'neill, Michael Laudrup.. Frank Rijkaard

Players? Big sale I think.. all names are mentionable. No one is safe, thats for sure.

Buy in - Right back & Winger. Hopefully? Dani Alves and Silva. :D

jetpacking days.

a day passes by so fast. within a snap of your finger, the day is over. Next!

that's how I assume most people are feeling about their lives. I do.

I need re-start myself and get the ball rolling again.

1. Plan meetups with the rest of people you haven't meet for the 2nd time .. and Nancy (lol) Haven't talked to her for awhile now. Funny status she has on her Facebook. assingmentinitis.. something like that.. Also with the VTees! (Haven't see that HS online for ages d :(, did he quit? lol.. )

2. Try to do ONE different thing this week. Go somewhere new. Eat somewhere new. that MAGE cafe!!! and ermm.... maybe go and do some voluntary work (hopefully)

HOUSE CLEANING part XXXIIII.. lol House is sold. I need to help sisters and myself to do some cleanup and arrange the boxes that we want to keep at one side..

Updates frm last week
Wed: Chef Loong... finally got a taste of my almond tea... after wanting to drink that in PG but tak jadi.... then Kit Mun call me for a meal the next day..

Thu: Buffet @ Mandarin Oriental cancelled... Kit Mun and I went to Pizza Hut, before coming out of it to go to Secret Recipe next door. Its nice catching up with her. Was shocked to learn about the news from our friends in EY. Had Choc Mud cake. Yummy. Thu we went for dinner also. 6 to 10. $$$ flying away

Fri: Game night n yumcha! Didnt play Betrayal.. which I really wanted to.. :( Smashing and Raying on Wii... I bullied Amanda in three games. First one for fun, the other 2 cos she asks the rests to target me... lol...

Sat: Movie. 3 Kingdoms. I like to story. But I think it ended too fast. Don't really like how they skipped the in between of his uprising and fall.. would like to see some of stories in between then.. and what happened to the girl?! But overall I like the story and how the ancient war strategists think. Coolness... made me feel like watching the other Andy Lau movie on the bandits one.

Sun: popiah.. and Souled out. i think.

finished talking to sis. trip is expensive.
sigh.

decent update.

1. went to MV 3 days in the last five for this job that I'm deciding not to pursue further.

2. learn about FOREX

3. went out for lunch with HL on Tuesday @ Sg Wang's Economic Rice (ticks one more restaurant of the 'list')

4. visited Pavilion for the first time on Tuesday

5. had lunch @ Mama's kitchen for the first time in 3 yrs (unless i had it during my internship, doubtful though)

6. started reading 20th Century Boys

7. had MY's Gloria Jeans Coffee for the first time, and the 2nd, simultaneously. ( Green Tea & Mango chiller)

8. saw star wars action figurines selling between rm15-20 at two different shops. this is my first time seeing these figurines selling at this low price since the first time i bought them!

9. bought a new thumbdrive.... the same one i bought for my Adelaide Uni @ LC. :D how cool is that? :P

10. watched the sunrise while listening to Emi's cd. Wonderful feeling :)


I bought Emi Fujita's Camomile Blend. Spectacular.

Saw the soundtrack Nick recommends me to buy, Across the Universe, still contemplating on that.

its pretty decent, eh? :)


coming to terms with myself.

I don't really know how to start this post. So I'll just babble my way through it.

Life is short, too short to worry too much about things that are too little when you think back. Life is too short to fill up your mind with unhappy thoughts and feelings, that in the end, what's the point? You only end up making yourself miserable.

I know myself that I try my best not to keep things in my heart, things that I like to shout at people, telling them how unhappy I am with their actions, but is that the right way to handle the situation? Keeping your mouth shut and letting things slide everytime you bum into a confrontation? I don't think there is a Right way or there is a wrong way. There are ways, and the consequences of the different solutions leads to different places. We should be looking for long-term benefit, rather than solving issues in view of the short-run.

Balance is the word. I think that several times, I should just yell out what I feel inside, and just let things out, make myself feel better and then u wake up and make up with whomever. That's something that what my friends told me that how friends should be like. Forgive and forget. I can forgive, but I find it difficult to forget. No matter how I pretend, I know I still remember what you did to me because I think about it, over and over again.

Therefore, balancing the right amount of anger-release and bottling some of it would be ideal. Ideal. Word that we use to describe things we love to want and own. No one is perfect. I know I am not.

Anyway, I am thinking of things that I've left behind. What should I do about it? I want to do something to make it better, to start over, but not everything is as easy as I want them to be. Just because I want them so, doesn't mean others do. And I am taking into account how others would feel from what actions I might take. Is this a good reason/excuse for being the way I am? Maybe. Depends.

I think, after all the babbling, I want to say that there isn't any point to keeping hard feelings against someone inside. Let it out and forget. Move on. I want to try to be someone with this personality.

Things look brighter up ahead. :)
