I've been to places where time does not matter. What matters most was the rythmn of one's heart beat and the countless nights of hopes and dreams.
I'd lived in my own fantasies, creating an unfamiliar world around me. Just thinking about the time i spent sitting up in my room just thinking of how the world should be. And it ended up terrible as what's form in my world was similar to the world that i am living in now.
Oh well, when the world is in the midst of finding out who the next most powerful country is going to be and with the Ukraine elections going on, me... i was just sitting in the living room, crowning myself as the next 'potato coach' champion. I was hoping that i will get into the Book of World Records by beating the rest in being a full-time potato coach. From a movie to the next, all i need to do is to sit in the living room and change DVD's when i finish one movie.
Let's see, what has been my entertainment for this week...
1. My cousin came for a visit. Usually, when my cousin comes, we will start challenging each other on who will be the next person to be anounced Queen of Vampires (staying up late at night). Well, yet of cause, no one could ever beat me in this. However, through out the one week, seems to me like there aint anyone who won the prize. So i guess it would be snowballed to the next meeting.
2. Movie Marathon. Now this may sound fun, but no, we don't waste money just buying tickets and sitting in the cinema and munching on popcorns and sipping on cokes. All we do was went shopping for DVDs as well as VCDs in the nearby stall. After getting the movies that we wanted, the nightmare begins. Well, to us was fun, but to my parents, it was just a nightmare for them cause we were occupying the living room, not even close to leaving space for them to watch their favorite tv show. *haha* Well, again, we watch till our eye lids are getting too heavy to stay open.
3. Movie watched. How To Loose A Guy In 10 Days (for a good laugh), Taxi, My Big Fat Greek Wedding (3rd time this month), 2 Fast 2 Furious (what could i say? i love cars... 3rd time now), The Terminal (best movie of the year, watched it about 5 times now), Farenhite 9/11 (slept through the whole thing... hey, it's not even a movie; to me, it's like a movie which attracts 'sound sleepers'). Hrmm, the tv shows we watched were The Kumars at No. 42, Goodness Gracious Me, The Apparentice, For Love Or Money 4, Simple Life (got to watch the finale), and the latest... Miss World 2004 (The winner goes to Miss Peru... how am i not surprise... How the hack did Miss Poland got into the finals anywayz?)
4. Supper. Gosh, this is my all time nightmare. Promising myself never to touch a single food after dinner, but the temptation was strong and too hard to be overcome. Well, Maggie Mee was our all time favorite, and more coffee to win the all-so-popular game - Queen of Vampires. I feel truely and honestly guilty after the calories i have put on and the amount of carbohidrates i have taken into my body!!
5. Shopping and attended a fun fair in Wesley Church. Lets see, shopping had been popular among the girls, but come to think of it, we did not exactly shop for long hours, just window shopping and getting the stuff we needed. There came a time where we were so crazy over which PDA to get, but the price were too... well, how much do you think a PDA could cost!! The fun fair turned out to be a disaster, there weren't much to look at and not much things to consume. Oh well, we spend 1 hour getting breakfast and went home after that.
Oh well, amazing week... now, back to being a boring person.

The Chances Are... Slim Part 2
All you need was just a conversation with the guy you once came to love. He did not reject for a minute of decent conversation the other night, but you found out, it wasn’t enough to find out what he had been up to.
You wait by the phone as he promised to call you. Seconds passed, than minutes slipped right before your eyes. When it came to the last hour where you decided to fade into the fantasy world, your phone rang all of a sudden.
Your heart leaped, you managed to take a deep breath before placing your hand on the receiver and picking it up, uttered the word ‘hello’.
Is it you? I called to ask how are you doing and I guess you might be doing just fine.
It was not a greeting that you have expected. You thought to yourself, you were not doing fine after that dream the other night. You wanted so much to tell him what the dream was all about. After all, it involved him. The picture of the other night’s dream was not clear, but you managed to remember the things he told you.
But wait a second; the person on the other line wasn’t him. It was your best friend calling to ask how you were doing. Dumbstruck, you set aside your misery and let yourself sustain the conversation. Your eye lids were heavy, you wanted to end the conversation for the night but felt guilty.
I am tired sweetheart, can I call you tomorrow? You heard yourself say.
Judging by the tone of his voice, you knew he was mad at you. However, you couldn’t care much as you wanted so much to be in bed.
Good bye then, I’ll call you tomorrow, if you ever want to talk about what’s on your mind!
Smiling to yourself, you replaced the receiver properly, switched off the lights in the living room and went straight to bed. You glace at the computer screen to see whether he left you a message. A tear caught in your eye lids, you wiped it off with your index finger.
What am I waiting here… he’s never coming online. If he does... will he ever speak to me again after what had happened?
The night of dreams
You pushed the gate open… door after door. At last, you came to wonderful, breathtaking, extraordinary garden with fountains and red, yellow and pink roses. Where has all the birds gone?
In the centre of the garden stood a round table. On top of it was a purple envelope which contained an anonymously written letter. With trembling hands, you picked it up, tore open the envelope and unfold the letter. Every word was written in Italics. The handwriting was clear and it reminded you of the same handwriting of the one you loved.
To the one that shares her ups and downs with me,
At this moment in time, there is one thing I tried to express and it was not something I think she would like to hear, but were the things that I needed to say to let her know how I feel. In my deepest concern, I know she have feelings towards me which I could never accept. It would hurt her and indeed this I know. There is just one thing she needed to know is that she has been wonderfully my companion and my worrier for the past few years. Our friendship blossomed abruptly which made her misunderstood of my motives. She deserves someone wonderful and that loves her more than anyone in this world. I failed as a lover and I could never offer her the best happiness she can get and never wish to try.
I’m in doubt of ever finding a friend like her ever again. I am scared of the day that she will not give me that smile of hers that melted the hearts of thousands. I never wish to tell her this but I had once loved her but I have to stop as I know my heart is with another. Forgive me dear, do tell her that I am embarking on a journey to eternal friendship. I would wish to go beyond but I never will find the horizon where the sun always sets.
Love always,
Someone who’s concern of your safety
Who did he share his ups and downs with besides you? He told you about his life, the wonderful moments both of you had shared... but... who is that person he shows much affection towards? Could the one he is falling for be the one the letter is addressed to? In an instance, you know that it wasn't you.
This was not supposed to be read by you. You’ve unfold his secrets which were kept from you all this while. You tried your best to think what you should do next. Blank… darken by the worst thought you could ever think of…
RUN!
If the letter wasn’t for you to read, then who was it addressed to? Who was he sharing his thoughts with? You don’t want to know. All you wanted to do was to get out of the garden, back to the doors you went through. You want to step out of this nightmare and shut the door on your way out and never visit it ever again.
You found yourself in pain. Your stomach hurts. Your head started to spin. You don’t know why; you can never know why and never will. All you thought of was that letter now clutched in your right hand. Who was it for?

The Lyric I Came To Agree With
A beautiful song by Jim Brickman which has been one of my favorites.
Music: Jim Brickman
Title: Peace (Where The Heart Is)
On a city street somewhere,
Someone shoots a gun
In the midnight air.
And I don't know why.
Somebody lives, somebody dies;
Somebody wrongs and a mother cries.
And I don't know why.
Some things we'll never understand;
Other things you change if you can.
Chorus:
Peace, you'll find it where the heart is,
And the heart is right where love lives,
And love can always find a way.
Hope is something that reminds us,
It's not too late to find us.
One day we may be in peace.
Haven't spoken in thirty years
After angry words and bitter tears.
And I don't know why.
Best of brothers and best of friends;
One mistake and their story ends.
And I don't know why.
Some things we'll never understand;
Other things you change if you can.
Chorus
It's all about forgiveness;
With God as my witness
I wanna live to see peace.
Chorus

Never Want To... I Don't Want To (Poem)
I don't know why i wrote this... no particular reason and meaning
Never want to fly like the birds in the sky
Never want to know what my life’s worthwhile
Never want to see your face in the crowd
Never want to know what the next life’s like.
I just want to sit at home with the TV on
I don’t want to sit beside the telephone
I don’t want to have the lights turned on,
Just want to sit in the dark for the night
Never want to run a thousand miles
Never want to ever see you smile
Never want to read your lips
Telling me you loved me all time round
Never want to know what tomorrow brings
Never want to see the sunset again
Never want to hear the voice of your call
Never want to sit to wait for the fall
What I want to do is to sleep in the dark
Want to hold my pillow tight till tomorrow comes
Thinking of the sharks in the deep blue sea
I wouldn’t want you to be next to me.
Never want to know what my life’s worthwhile
Never want to see your face in the crowd
Never want to know what the next life’s like.
I just want to sit at home with the TV on
I don’t want to sit beside the telephone
I don’t want to have the lights turned on,
Just want to sit in the dark for the night
Never want to run a thousand miles
Never want to ever see you smile
Never want to read your lips
Telling me you loved me all time round
Never want to know what tomorrow brings
Never want to see the sunset again
Never want to hear the voice of your call
Never want to sit to wait for the fall
What I want to do is to sleep in the dark
Want to hold my pillow tight till tomorrow comes
Thinking of the sharks in the deep blue sea
I wouldn’t want you to be next to me.

Back From Wherever I've Been
It seriously is great to be back. First of all, thank God for the successful and pleasant trip to China. Very interesting place to go to for a holiday... and not to forget, for endless shopping too. What sucked was that we need to take a bus down to the Penang International Airport at 4am in the morning reached the airport about 6am. We took a 7am flight to Bangkok, and then another transit to ShangHai. It was about 3 hours and 45 minutes flight from Bangkok to ShangHai. We were then greeted by a bubbly and professional tour guide, and again, we have to sit in the bus from the airport to the city of ShangHai. Another 1 hour and a half ride to the city.
Dinner on the first night was terrible. I was feeling abit nausea, so i did not get the chance to have a feast. Well, it was just the first night, and there is a saying that the first impression is the most important of all. After the food that we ate on the first night, my the enthusiasm of looking forward to eating the food in China was practically low. Well, this actually explains why most of us went to KFC or McDonalds for supper every day. The food in China was either too oily or too salty. Oh yeah, we were given a chance to taste the Peking Duck. Oh wow, you can actually see the oil oozing out as well as the layers and layers of fats contained. Trust me, i never taste a single one.
On the 2nd day, we proceeded to Hang Zhou. It was another hour ride on the bus. Just listening to the tour guide speak actually increases my nausea level. So instead of listening to some interesting thing he has to say, i had my discman on and was fast asleep (not advicable for a person on tour to do that actually).
The places that i have been to were TongLi, WuXi, Nanjin, SuZhou and back to ShangHai. The interesting places which interest me were The Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge, Lake Tai (known as the third largest freshwater lake in China. It encompasses 2,425 square kilometres. Lake Tai's banks touch 38 cities), and Tang City. If you were to ask me which was my favorite, i would have to say the Tang City.
A little desciption on the listed places that interest me
The Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge provides a vital link between North China and the fertile fields of South China. The construction of the bridge began in Jan 18, 1960 and was completed in Dec. 29, 1968. At the sides of the bridge stands 4 towers. One of the towers housed the visitor's briefing room and where a fine model of the bridge is placed. The .6 Kilometres long bridge is 2 tiered with the top level for vehicles (about 4,589 metres long and 19.5 metres wide) and the lower one for trains (6,772 metres ong double deck and 14 metres wide). A total of 100,000 tons of steel and one million tons of cement were used for the construction of the bridge. Standing at the top of the briefing room tower was great. It gives you a clear view of the Southern and Northern China.
Lake Tai was another amazing site. Well, do not think it is just a lake but it is the third largest in China. It is as large as 4 Singapore put together or a total of 2 city of ShangHai put together. Another interesting site was the Movie Land of Three Kingdom City and Water Margin City (also known to be the Tang City). This landmark provides 'Tang Dynasty Style' architecture and is one of the scenic spots of Wu Xi Lake Tai Movies and Television Base of CCTV, for the purpose of shooting film and television series in ancient custome. In order to provide producers with kinds of scenery, from the year 1987, nearly 100 scenic spots were built and constructed. For instance, the Tang Palace, Agalloch Eaglewood Pavilion, Lishan Drawing Pavilion, Tang Street, Imperial Garden, Immortal Appears, Dufu Poetry Hall and more. The Movie Land demonstrates the style of the imperial city of the Tang Dynasty. Because of its amazing sceneries, it is the place that provides good function to shoot movies and television series. However, that's not all, it includes a studie of 720 quare metres, prop rooms and I were costume rooms in various sizes. It also provides producers with accomodation and entertainment. While we were there, we were given a chance to see actresses and actors live as they were filming a set. Of cause, we have to be quiet.
So, these are the sites which interest me. Another two interesting sites were Dr. Sun Yet-Sen's Mausoleum and Song Ching Ling's (a famous politician, an exponent of the world peace movement, and one of the founders of the People's Republic of China). I had a fun time visiting Dr. Sun Yet-Sen's mausoleum. But it was tiring to spend a total of 10 to 15 minutes climbing up a flight of stairs to were Dr. Sun Yet-Sen's was buried (in order word's, the memorial hall).
Alright, so these are the places which i have been too and have enjoyed. Places where we shopped at were Nanjing Road and the Confusious Temple. I managed to get Secret Garden's Once in A Red Moon Album, Yundi Li's Chopin Album and George Winston's Montana - A Love Story Album. Alrighty, that's all for now.

I'm Leaving on Thai Airlines
A week has gone since the holidays first started. The week was not really spiritually fruitful, so i guess i would need to be a shame of myself. It is hard to stick to the Bible and spending time to talk to God when my mind is only focusing on onlining and chatting with my pals. Many of you told me that you will be back sometime in November... Audrey Lian and Shariman, if the both of you are reading this entery of mine, do give me a call or an sms to my handphone when you people are back... I miss you people so much!! Hopefully we can meet up and hang out together... seriously looking forward to that.
I read 1 Chronicles chapter 16 the other day and i found something which was beautifully written - The Psalm of Thanksgiving - David's psalm to God.
8 'Give thanks unto the LORD, call upon his name, make known his eeds among the people,
9 'Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him, talk ye of all his wondrous works,
10 'Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD.
11 'Seek the LORD and his strength, seek his face continually,
12 'Remember his marvellous works that he hath done, his wonders, and the judgements of his mouth;
13 'O ye seed of Israel his servant, ye children of Jacob, his chosen ones.
14 'He is the LORD our God: his judgements are in all the earth.
15 'Be ye mindful always of his covenant; the word which he commanded to a thousand generations.'
This is just an extract from 1 Chronicles Chapter 16. (16:8-15). I found it really beautiful and just thought of jotting it down here in my entery. It made me think of the blessings everyday which are gifts from God; my safety, my family's happiness, my family's and friends' safety. It's just touches me to know that God has always been there even though how many times in a day, when i have a chance to talk to Him, i just pushed Him away. I want to bless the name of the LORD forever and ever!
My favorite verse in 1Chronicles 16 is verse 34.
34 'O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever.
Okay, i'll be flying off to China for a holiday. I do hope that it would be a benefitial trip and, not to use the word dull, hopefully it will be of excitement. I am more interested in the food actually and side-seeing. Okay now, i better go pack my bags, will be leaving early in the morning. I would not much sleep at home, but hopefully will manage to sleep on the airplane. Do pray for a safe journey, thank you!

For Love or Money 3...
I woke up at 10am today morning and wow, am i late to fetch my bro back from tuition. Ignoring the fact that i have to put on my contact lenses to drive, i just took my glasses and went on with it. Yep, i have blur vision. I have not really washed my face entirely and feel half dead. But don't worry, i managed to drive all the way to my bro's tuition centre and pick him up before i get scolding from him. Yeah, it's just normal for little brothers to bully their big sisters.
Oh, the entire afternoon wasn't at all enjoyable for me. I have a serious tummy ache and went to bed right after i hit the toilets. Oh well, besides of feeling guilty after all the food i gobbled up during lunch, i went for Pizza with my mom and my siblings. Oh, now i am seriouly full and i still, unbelievable enough, i went to get something else to munch after dinner... man, i am wondering how i am suppose to go on a diet when i was genuinely being serious about it, well, weeks ago!!.. haha..
I watched 'Young Posh and Loaded' and oh wow, this young Russian Chick by the name Anna actually go out spending 500 to 700 pounds on a pair of shoes. And she can spend 150 million pounds in a matter of a year. Man, and the whole amount that she spent could somehow feed a whole third world country. Check it out... i wouldn't want to spend my money just like that, it's like flushing it down the toilet bowl and never gonna see it ever again in my entire life!! I wonder what if her dad suddenly goes bankrupt? WIth no job and being a spender, i think she will end up in the streets penniless.
For people who follows the reality show 'For Love or Money 3'... tell me about it... Preston is so... i couldn't really find a word to describe him!! First Andrea is gone and then Rebecca must go... man, doesn't he know that he is eliminating the wrong gurls... if you ask me, Rachel has the 'i am in for the $1,000,000' look written all over her face. Are guys that blind? I think it goes to both female and male. We seem to be falling for the wrong people.
What i think is the definition of 'Glass Ceiling'
*Eddie, i seriously do not know the true definition of 'glass ceiling', but, what i think is probably a person trying to reach to the top but at the end, he does not know that what he achieved was how far he can get as there is like an invisible glass limiting him to further achievements. For example, the UN is always talking about Peacekeeping, but at the end of the day, they can only try sending peacekeeping troops to batter fields and trying to find out what is truely the situation in these battle fields and try their best to make peace. But i don't think their intentions are applicable cause they could only go as far as sending peace keeping troops, but to achieve 'PEACE', they are just hitting the glass ceiling (they can only go as far as doing their best to help civilians who are victimize in war). Yeah, i think that is what it means by 'Glass Ceiling' (i don't know whether you get my point, but yeah, thatz what i think... haha, if you cant get my point, then i doubt that Mr. Tang will too... but hey, i did not answer this question in the exam.. so wrong gurl to ask!!)

For example, the UN is always talking about Peacekeeping, but at the end of the day, they can only try sending peacekeeping troops to batter fields and trying to find out what is truely the situation in these battle fields and try their best to make peace. But i don't think their intentions are applicable cause they could only go as far as sending peace keeping troops, but to achieve 'PEACE', they are just hitting the glass ceiling (they can only go as far as doing their best to help civilians who are victimize in war). Yeah, i think that is what it means by 'Glass Ceiling' (i don't know whether you get my point, but yeah, thatz what i think... haha, if you cant get my point, then i doubt that Mr. Tang will too... but hey, i did not answer this question in the exam.. so wrong gurl to ask!!)

Goodbye 1st Year, Hello Holidays
Yippie!! The exams are finally over. Phew, sat for 2 hours just completing my INT1020 examination and guess what, i don't think i even care!! haha. Oh well, all i can do now is to wait for the results to come out on the 6th of December and i will get to know how 'well' i flared. I doubt that i will score high in the exam as my procrastination was in the way. On Friday, Audrey, Zeck, Eddie, Aaron, Eva, Ayushna and I went to school for a group study. Things did not turn out the way it suppose to be. First of all, we came out with a plan of everyone doing on their presentation topics at different spots. However, we started having this little gathering in the computer lab.
Oh well, it did not turn out absolutely useless, we actually did a little on what we are suppose to do. Oh hey, didn't know Zeck was serious when it comes to studying and getting answers for the sake of doing well in the exams. Man, the credit goes to Zeck in particular!! Anywayz, we had fun just sitting in the computer lab discussing about nothing much. The key concepts that we spotted were Global Village, Indegenious People, Digital Divide, Sustainable Development, Sustainablity, Pandemic and Fundamentalism. What came out was the opposite. But we manage to answer 'Indegenious Peoples' so i guess we would get our points from there. Again, hope is the word as now things are finally over. Now, let me not go into the world of regrets and 'if'.
Oh hey, i am beginning to miss everyone, now that i am back in Ipoh and wished that i could stay longer in KL just for the sake of hanging out with Ayushna and gang. I have to miss 'Taxi' when i seriously wanted so much to watch it. So i guess i need to find people to hang out with in Ipoh so that i could go for the 'Taxi' movie. Looking at the bright side, i am sure glad that i came back to Ipoh fast. I missed my dogs and Winnie (my female labrado dog) looked glad to meet me, but champion seemed to be hiding in his cannal. Oh well, can't blame him, it's raining pretty heavily and i couldn't believe Winnie came out to meet me when it is pouring.
Oh, came back from KL 1 hour ago and i rushed to the net just to see who is online. Played Solitaire Showdown with Jin, chatted with Debbie and Rohit, played Hexic with Debbie then. Man, i seriously need a challenger for Solitaire Showdown... after playing half way with Jin, he said that he got to go do some house chores... wow, my guy friends need to learn from him!! haha, seriously... major big time!! Anywayz, i was suppose to unload my stuff from the car but was too lazy to do so. Hey, can't blame me, i just got back from KL and i just finished my exams like ermmm.... few hours ago *_*. Neh, guess i am just plain lazy...
Alright, what to do tomorrow. Will be meeting up with Jonathan since he came to Ipoh for a visit. I don't even think that i could wake up that early in the morning for breakfast. Say, at 9am, that's just a killer for me! I could just make up my mind and say, 'NO'. Haha, well, it has been a long time since i last met Jonathan face to face, and i don't even remember how he looks like. Oops, he better not read this entry of mine... ah, what the hack...
So, where to go for breakfast? I think i should get out more often, i don't even know where is the best place for breakfast in Ipoh.. such a lamer. Anywayz, i think i'll just pen off now. I don't know what else to write...
*to people who are looking at this blog page of mine... happy holidays and all the best if you are sitting for upcoming exams!! haha... ooops
