wrapping 2009

things that i wanted to do in 2008 were not executed, i think. i didnt create any list for 2009, knowing that i wont checked the items from the list. what about 2010? let me see just write them out for the sake of writing 1) to make more friends? ~~i'm wondering, how many friends do i actually i have? those who i really keep in touch with? as in i have their mobile numbers and i call or sms them? do i really need more for the sake of widening my circle? some said YES, so that i can find my "other half". ( where are you, my other half? ) hehehehe.. 2) to stay healthier? ~~since growing vertically is not going to happen, i'm hoping that i can prevent myself from growing horizontally. tough! tough! it's maintenance time! 3) to travel more? ~~who doesnt want this in their MUST DO list? 2009 highlight was new zealand . a very crazy last minute decision. booked in february, and off we went in april. krabi too was adhoc & unplanned but well executed. where to next,...

(15% did make a lot of different in the total bill. hsbc..my one & only card. hahaha!) #3 : it's all about (D)SLR cameras nowaday.. #4 : mrs & mr Chong #5 : mieng kam #6 : appetizer of fish cakes, popiah, etc ~~and then too busy talking and eating.. forgot to take photos of what i ate! hahaha. after this session, the next one, hopefully will be during cny. see you then!

officially missing you

there is "love at first sight" and for me, there is also "love at first hearing". when a catchy tune gets into my ears, i must find out what song is it, who sing it and i want it! i dont pay attention to lyrics. i only pay attention to the tune. below is the song that i heard when i was in colleague's house on christmas eve. truly madly deeply loving this. ------------------------------ officially missing you All I hear is raindrops, falling on the rooftop Ooh baby, tell me why’d you have to go? Cause this pain I fell it won’t go away And today I’m officially missing you ### I thought that from this heartache I could escape But I’ve fronted long enough to know There ain’t no way and today I’m officially missing you ### Ooo can’t nobody do it like you Said every little thing you do Hey baby say, stays on my mind And I, I’m officially ### All I do is lay around, two years full of tears From looking at your face on the wall Just a week ago you were my baby Now I do...

~~it's our company christmas party tonight. everyone is in party mood. work? hahaha.... office will be closed at 3pm.

balik kampung

Image
~~whenever people ask me this question,"kampung kat mana?" (where is your hometown?), my answer will be,"China". they will give me this look. yeah, true lah. my dad is born in china. so, if i want to balik kampung, i will balik china. my dad's two sisters still reside in china. the eldest in putian, and the second sister in foochow. those days, my grandpa only brought his two sons to malaysia. the daughters were left in china. dad was only 7 when he came to malaysia. he went back once 6 or 7 years ago with his eldest brother. ~~two years ago, we balik kampung. dad's kampung is in putian, xiamen in china. we went back to celebrate 'chap goh meh', the 15th day of chinese new year (the last day too), and also to "bring" the ancestors from the "chi thong" (where all families placed their ancestors under one roof) back to my aunt house. we reached home at 3am. by 9am, the neighbourhood knew the entourage from malaysia has arrived. news...
