So the end of the world didn come and we are ushering the new year.
Best wishes and I hope you didn spend all of your money =p

With the environmental footprint nowadays, I do believe the earth may vanish one day, but i doubt that it would be this year, and on the 21st. And now, the million dollar question: How would you spend the last day of the year?

Yes, spend all your money. Money does not leave with us.
Yes, spend quality time with the most important people in your life.
No, do not sleep. It would be everlasting sleep after the end of the world.
Yes, u can run. Run to prolong the time available for you as much possible.
No, you dont hv to be afraid. No one with be left out.
Yes, u think. U think of the past, the present, the future.
Yes, u appreciate. You appreciate things given to you, and you try not to leave with any regrets.

On the other hand, nonetheless, should that materialises, it would be a magnificient event that every earth occupant shall experience. Which generation would be the lucky one?

It feels like time has passed so hurriedly fastly and Christmas is around the corner again. The trees are up, the songs are humming, the gifts are in stock. Putting aside nx year resolutions, let's hope for the best excitment, joy and fun to come in these two last weeks. Fingers crossing**

Christmas is not lovely without gifts and wishes, it's time for hunting! Merry christmas in advance everyone =)

Hurrrraayyyy exam's are over and it feels so so so good now, to the extent that it seems that you have shed some weight from ur body (mental weight i suppose).. teehee..

7) Spring cleaning
8) Set up my new lappie
That's all for now. Goodbye!

Coffee days are back!
It's at least a cup a day to stay awake.
And presumably it shall increase overtime.
And subsequently another two weeks or more to overcome the coffee-deprived days.

There's no choice.
I substituted it with tetris only to realise that i spend more time on tetris than on my studies.
Everyday is a behind-schedule.

Fine, let's get motivated and study study study!
It's just another two weeks and all you need is determination and focus!
Gambatteh =D

Although every woman wants a guy who shows interest in her life, appreciates her on ordinary days and loves her with all her imperfections. But deep in her heart she wants a guy who is completely faithful to her and who is not scared of commitment and marriage. A guy who can promise to give his best to hold her hand for the rest of her life ~ Aarti Khurana

There is a flood of travelling photos all around fb recently. I used to think that being able to study in UK provides the golden opportunity to travel and explore around europe. But i realise that this is no longer true. With plummetting travelling costs and increasing spending (or earning) powers, to travel to Europe is no more a great luxury as before, France, Italy, Spain, Austria. You dont really need to study there to travel there.

Would you be my rainbow? ♥

Recently, I'm kinda missing a whole bunch of people (who have all jetted all around the world. Some photos of the good times:

Last hangout before grad ps: HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHIN SHIN :DD



Easter at Chester Market



Dressing up with Yifei for grad ball.. And they got me a lovely princess crown =))



CNY CNY CNY..

Mushroom gouloash with dumpling.. Dumpling is similar to our rice. It's actually a Hungarian dish if im not mistaken..

Snitzels.. The all-time favourite dessert - pancakes!

So i was reading about the relationship between Wallis and Prince Edward, inquisitive to know more about the man who had given up the throne of England just to be with the woman he loved. On 12 Dec 1936, his younger brother, also the great grandfather of current Prince William, the Duke of York, was proclaimed King George VI.

Arguments can be made, of course, that they are shallow and self- involved. But it's also been said that the relationship between the Duke and Duchess of Windsor was the "Romance of the Century", and that their love was "deep and true." "I have found it impossible to carry the heavy burden of responsibility and to discharge my duties as king as I would wish to do without the help and support of the woman I love." he famously said that in a broadcast to the nation. I dont know another person who can do that. Or maybe i do. People are virtually self-centred nowadays. In fact, im slowly learning that no one will love myself as much as i do.

Stories replay. People tend to fall back into the same shoe as the past. At some point i bitterly resented myself for placing myself in such a position.  Yet the consolation is that nothing is perfect. "Perfect world" is just a base to uphold theories in finance. Whilst the Windsor is a picturesque, the story of the Duke and Duchness of Windsor remains.

I was browsing thru my wishlist and i think it's time for a revamp.

Let's see:

- To sit on a cloud for a dayview and on the moon for a nightview (yeah i know this is ridiculous).
   This.. Errrm.. Shy**

- To lie down on a pretty greenland watching the sky and clouds.
   I think i achieved sthing not exactly, but similar to this. Can i tick this item? :)

- To get my weight back to at least 41kg.
   This is achieved! As at 14/09/2012.

- To learn gu zheng and dancing.
   This is yet to be achieved. But should be a current liability realising soon. Trust me.

- To study up till Masters, of course preferably to Doctorate.
   This is yet to be achieved. But there might be slightly change in plan.

- To be able to pay for my own property, my own car, my own expenses.
   At current practice.

- To have a farm visit and spend time chasing after and being chased after with the sheep, cattles and goats.
  This is actually inspired by a friend who is doing veterinarian science. Realisation, well, it depends.. maybe New Zealand?

- A wonderful dressing room with a large wardrobe and a potpourri of compartments for handbags, accessories, watches, jewelry etc.
   This is yet to be achieved. But effort in progress.

- Fairy tales!!
  I forgot what does this has to do with. Ooopss..

- To volunteer and help people, especially children in need.
   This comprises of two: short term and long term. is yet to be achieved. But effort in progress.

- To be lee chong wei, wei wei's  personal assistant =p
   This shall be left to destiny =p

Overall remarks: Not too bad i would say, condering the current schedule im stuck in. More could be one, and as one is achieved, one could come in =)

有些人却觉得已经装了一半
还剩一点点
就到终点了。



＂任何人都不可以教我放弃
我是不会放弃的＂~长今＜大长今＞

I'm sorry that i ve not been here for a while.

Fine. I ve decided.
From now on, you shall hear this from me:

Since the 4th, the entire facebook was virtually filled with statuses about Lee Chong Wei.

Looking at him tearing was way heartbreaking than losing the 48-year-waited-for gold medal.
No one would feel more devastated than him.
That 2 points. So close yet so far.

But ironically, despite that he was the runner up, attention was all on him.
His determination, attitude and passion was highly applauded by everyone.
I think we just lack of destiny in winning huge tournaments stimes.
But that doesnt matter. Nothing else matters.
He has won everybody's heart.
And in fact, he unites everyone in the country.
Albeit the Negaraku didn fill up the Wembley Arena, it is singing in our hearts.

Saw this whilst having yong tau fu this afternoon..

I wont give up.

Burning midnight-oil days are here again..
(sighhh why is study an endless work)


On a bright note, post exam plans are in and awaiting:
       - A one-day ticket for 24 hrs unlimited Tetris
       - Mugging days for On Call 36 Hrs & Daddy's Good Deeds
       - Therapies and shopping sprees
       - Catch up with friends and family (you, you, you and you)
       - Holidays and holidays
       - Sleep and sleep
       - On hunt for a new notebook :)

...... and that's what keep pinkie motivated and moving! =)

Yayy i hv plaits today :)

Stepping on KLIA once again refreshes lots of memory.
The love-hate affinity is still so familiar.
How much tears were left here.
How many times separation and reunions took place here.
How much hope and reluctance wandered around the premise.
And i could almost converse the entire pre-boarding instructions.

The month of May didn end in a very nice way really.
I lost my grandfather, and a former classmate of mine.
It's so happening that i wish life could be simpler, steadier and also more peaceful.
The sun's not shinning, and the stars are not twinkling in the ways that they usually do.

There's a saying "it's darkest before dawn".
I wish we are in the darkest now.

当初若肯下定决心
结果是可以很不一样的

Mixed feelings.
Again. It's a struggle between the great
it's nvr too late to mend vs crying over split milk.
Perplexing.
It is.

--原来人的性格，也是如此
没有人是百分百的好--

While i may be sometimes disenchanted with the system etc in Malaysia, and may not have came across as overly Malaysian, the sense of camaraderie was cultivated with fellow Malaysians overseas. We love Malaysian food, we speak for Malaysia, and we get excited when Malaysia is mentioned in the news.

There are still lots of ways to contribute to our nation, whether big or small.

Here's your chance to turn things around.

Contribute as little as RM15 to conserve 50sq m area (size as a car porch) within the 34000ha Sabah Malua rainforest. The contribution can be paid within minutes through http://www.protectmalua.com/. In just few clicks, we can easily help to maintain this precious natural habitat that the animals call it home =)

My sis showed me this and i was trully amazed to how exact i do the same most of the time:

Dear King Juan, Queen Ang, Lord Pie, Duchness Yifei and ultimately Duke Shin Shin,

To my honourable majesties, it's rather ironic that your emails always make me cry in the office.

Despite we are separated in diff regions now, the love is in the air thru out the 10552km from warwick to msia. Miss u dearly too.



That's the most recent photo we had together, isnt it =p

 

A couple of weeks ago, amid the scorching Malaysian sun and the beautiful full moon, Valentine’s Day came and went. The roses have now dried, and died.

Hello morning!

Woke up with a perplexed mind attributable to unexplained dreams.. and it seems the only way to get me out of this mood swing is to write and spill.

The biggest difference of being home really, is stimes u get so bugged down with responsibilities and commitments that u can no longer do things as u wish. And it's getting more n more severe day after day. Right now, I really wish, i could put down all, all the things (in hand and in mind) and go on a getaway. Im not greedy. Just one day will do.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

It's not that im not doing ok.. Oh well, alright, im actually not doing so ok. Stimes it's just that u know rightfully what u shud do but u just dont feel like doing it? And u just need some further slight push or drift to cultivate the determination and eventually make things move. And to get that 'push' pinkie always resort to rebellion. But u just hv to bear in mind that pinkie's rebellion style isnt goin to be any high risk activities. So no worries about that.

I wish i could buy time to chat with daddy in the garden..
How long ago hv we not been sitting down tgt and share about big n small things happening around..

Can u imagine things like 'i ve not met my father for 3 days straight' happening to me now..

Happy Chinese New Year! The CNY mood's probably almost over now, but still, better late than never.. It’s not chap goh mei yet anyway. And hi, im back! Back to this space to fulfill pinkie’s princess desire and dreams =)

As for how 2012 has been treating me so far - it hasn't been utter fantastic. I ve been so caught up in the intricacies of living until there’s no room for hiatus at all. At all. It’s quite sad, isn’t it? It’s painful having to fulfill every party’s desire and eventually, forgoing the will of urself. Worse case, when u r trying to strike a balance in everything, u just end up doing average instead of perfect for everything. Just like the production possibility frontier (PPF) in economics: Scarce resources, with multiple activities to be fulfilled. An increase here is complemented by a decrease there, unless, u hv extra resources. But how can u hv more than 24 hours a day. It’s just impossible.

And now my nose is blocked, which makes me super uncomfortable. I ve not fully recovered since Christmas and this is awful. I dont even get sick at the rainy country over the other end of the world.

Being back is definitely joyous because everything felt new and shiny all over again. But at the same time, I miss the laze I used to enjoy, I miss the skyping and msn days, I miss spending the evenings at Coniston, I miss having just a single responsibility which is to study well and pass your grades. I miss watching dramas episodes after episodes. I even miss having full financial support lol. There’s always two sides of a coin of course. England’s such a place that makes me cry and laugh.

One last sign of weakness before I go off for tdy – My emotions are playing the most cruel paradox on me! At one moment im happy, at another im gloomy. And ever since I read Let’s meet at Platform 8, it just seems to cast a spell on me. The only reward i have at current is 'work hard, play hard'. I realise occasionally, i ve started transforming into an evil pinkie who is ignorant of everything. You can see it as a hiatus, or rebelliant. No worries, not doing illegal acts that you'd imagine but just the fact that i want to prioritise myself, my feelings for some little times.

I don’t know. Apparently the dragon babies are going to have an incredibly terrible year for the next 11 months. And the biggest irony, u know what, 2012’s year of dragon T_____T I simply don’t know if it will turn out real. But I rather believe that it’s more of ‘sweet after bitter’ or ‘You wont get a rainbow without a little rain’ phenomenon. I must say, im still very contented with my life now =) Regardless, the rest of 2012, I hv high hopes on you, don’t do that to me..
