Origami in the Pursuit of Perfection

Check this video out. It's simply amazing.

Hmm.... If only history classes were this interesting during secondary school, then maybe I could had scored better. :)

Cloudy blue sky

Took this picture from the porch on the afternoon of 28th December. Really reminded me of my trip to KT a few months back.

Angel in the car

Took this picture on the 17th of December while driving home in the evening. Was waiting for the traffic light to turn when I spotted the wing on my dashboard. :)

Selling yourself

How do you sell yourself? How do your brand yourself? How do you 'make' yourself into a 'product' that will be hot off the shelf?

I've been looking at the same blank word document and my old resumé to and froth the whole day and it's still looks exactly the same from this morning.

How in the world did I do it the previous round? How did all those words came together to make that sentence?

My favourite MSN conversation

Me hearts this boy banyak-banyak now :)

It broke

The cross and chain I wore on my wrist for the longest time (nearly 10 years I think) broke! It broke yesterday night.... on all days, Christmas night!

I don't know what it breaking symbolizes but I know that I'm just thinking too much. Just because it's a present I bought for my first BF for Christmas, which I never had the chance to give to. Oh well.

Magic Wand

I was in Aeon Bukit Tinggi this evening. And while waiting for some friends to come out from the loo, I was standing in front of this shop and saw, to me, one of the most unforgivable design no-no.

Using the 'magic wand' tool to edge out something to be used for this size?? Hello!! Which design school did this designer went to? And don't this shop have QC?? hmm...

The shop front

Close up in detail

Oh! Did I mention that the logo is also pixelated??

Hmm... then again, maybe it's a designer thing. Right? Did you ever notice it? No rite? Then surely it's100% a designer thing. Maybe a Virgo thing as well.

I hearts, but...

I saw this blouse in Nichi which I really liked. But... I promised mum and myself that no more shopping and that is what I'm going to do. Cold turkey. No shopping at all. Zero. Zip. Nada.

So what's the next best thing to owning it? Take a picture of how good you look in it (and post it up on your blog so that maybe some good, kind person who is in the mood to do some charity during the festive season will get it for me? Please...).

Do I look good in it or do I look good in it?

p/s: It costs RM49.90 and I wear size s. Thank you banyak-banyak in advance... :)

Reminder to self

DON'T YOU EVER DRINK OR CLUB EVER AGAIN!!

CLUBBING IS FINE BUT DO NOT,
I REPEAT DO NOT EVER DRINK!!

YOU CANNOT DRINK SO STICKING WITH COKE IS JUST FINE!!

but...but... I drank in Bangkok and I was fine wor...

IT DOESN'T MATTER!!

o.... ok.... Merry Christmas!! :)

Me at 6.30pm on 23 December 2008

Some where in Kelana Jaya

A picture says a thousand words.
What do you see? What do you feel?

Count down

Today is the 23rd of December
That means 25 more days
But I don't work on weekends so it's minus 6 days = 19 days
Minus 3 more public holidays = 16 days
Today is already ending so minus 1 more day = 15 days
31 is a half day so minus 1/2 = 14.5 days

14.5 more days.... man... if only it was 14.5 more hours or 14.5 more minutes.....

Anyhow, Garfield thought this. Teehee... :)

Update at 8.20pm: Just found out that tomorrow is also a half day! Woo hoo! Which now makes it 14 days! :)

The eve of Christmas eve

Woke up today to see God shinning at me. It was just amazing.

7.25am

7.30am

Then it made me think. Is this what I've been missing out all this while? Was my eyes too clouded to see? What happened to the Li Sa who smiles at herself when she is shown/given/told with these simple things?

I'm glad that get to see this today morning. It's considered one of my best presents this year. And best of all, it came from God.

There are more than starry nights to lookout for now. :)

0% K

2 months ago, I posted this (*click)

Iky Wiky Me

2 months later, I've finally moved my lazy butt and now, it looks like this:

My lappy that looks brand new. 0% K :)

If I don't do something about it soon...

.... I think it's going to explode!!

I'm talking about my closet. I think it's about time I do something about it. Organize it; throw out the old; get a 2nd closet... anything.... It's so messy till I found clothes in there I bought and have not worn and totally forgot about... hmm....

Mummy actually gave up on kinda helping me keep it neat a few months back. She didn't know what to hang and what not to hang anymore. So in the end, she just dumps everything there. Haha....

Well, I really really should clean it up.

My very messy and unorganized closet

I hearts weekends

Recently, I've been loving my weekends more and more because within these 2 1/2 days, I get to (in no random order):

1) not think about my very crappy and sucky 5 weekdays at the place called 'work'
2) get to do do drama series and movie marathons (this I give 1 million hearts)
3) wake up only then the sun is shining down at my lazy butt
4) download Chinese mp3's illegally (funny that the site I usually download from only works during weekends)
5) catch up with my girls (this... I give 1 gazillion hearts ^_^)
6) bake (not very so now because the people who I thought appreciated it apparently don't really do! Well too bad for them then.)
7) not think so much about how sad I am because I'm only surrounded by happiness! :)

Empty vs. Broken

Emptiness can be filled up.
But broken, there will always be a scar even after mending.

I am broken.

Monkey Alert!!

Everyday.
With out fail.
2 times a day.
8.30am & around 6 plus in the evening.
Monkeys come invade my street, rumbling through our trash.

Taken on the morning of 16/12/08
And they are right above my room.

My neighbor was also about to leave for work and he advised me through the fences to be careful of the monkeys. Well, I thank him for the concern but then wouldn't using a broom stick to knock the zinc roofing where the monkeys was first spotted sitting provoke them more?

Creepers... monkeys scare me.

I did it

Today I finally did it. There is no turning back now.

I honestly don't know what the future holds for me now, but it's better then to have no future here.

Maybe I should take up mummy's offer to pursue my degree in Australia? Well, that sounds like a plan if we get the money...

Anyhow, 1 month and counting. I really hope this puts an end to my sucky 2008 and give me a good start in 2009.

I'll keep my fingers crossed. :)

Today, I cried...

Today, I cried. I cried twice.

Once in the office when on the phone with Yenn Linn.

The other, just a few minutes ago. In front of mummy.

I cannot recall the last time I cried in front of my mum. 5, 10 years ago? I really cannot remember.

I really don't know how to put this in context but all I know is that what they say is true - your family will never abandon you. Never.

Just when I really thought that mummy will just scold me for my stupidity, I was wrong. She did not even raise her tone a tiny notch. She actually was cool about it and supported my decision.

I'm brought up in a quite traditional Asian family where we don't say things out loud. So there fore, both mummy and I has never expressed out love for each other. But I'm fine with how it is. I will teach my children to say it but I'm fine with how we are now. Cause we both know deep down, we know. We ARE mother and daughter.

Anyhow, I'm really grateful to have my mummy as my mum. And I thank her for helping me through this, no matter how useless I feel I am.

Thank You Mi.

Huh? Am I getting my days wrong?

I think there's something really wrong with Facebook. Can you spot it?

exhibit no. 1

exhibit no. 2

Saw it? I don't think I'm crazy and I don't think I'm seeing things wrongly too.

Yesterday = the day before today (past)
Today = present day
Tomorrow = the after today (future)

So I ask you now: How can your comment be there before the day comes?

I tak faham. You faham? Tolong jelaskan kepada saya.

Terima Kasih.

Me short post

Me back.
Me still alive.
Me tired. Very tired.
Me want sleep.
Me need work tomorrow.
Me will blog tomorrow.

Me say g'nite.

Off to Hong Kong I go...

My flight will leaving for Hong Kong in 6 hours time and guess what? I'm still in the office! Great huh? And to add to my misery, I'm not feeling well....

I really need a break... but can I survive even before I can make it?

Think positive... In case I don't need to face my nightmare for a while. Damn it! It's really starting to get on to me! Remember I said that I can never hate (you)? Well, guess I was wrong. I think I do hate you now. Hate you for being so useless in my eyes. Such an eye sore. Such a disappointment....sign....

Anyway, stay positive.... Holiday... Shopping......

Bye people... See you in 6 days time. Hope to take some nice pictures of Hong Kong life.

Creepers

I came in to work today at 9.05am and to find......the office still locked! Worst still, there was no one walking in thought the door even after 9.20am.

It was creepy... was there a memo that I didn't receive about the office closing down for a day? Or maybe a virus outbreak that I didn't know of? Or is today a weekend??

But anyhow, I was just scaring myself. People are in now. I think it's my sinus. Not making me think straight.

Didn't I tell you so?

See. Didn't I tell you so? Now it has finally happened and you are f***ed. There is not point crying over spilled milk now.

Honestly, I really didn't know how to react to the news. Sad? Disappointed? Happy? Relieved? I don't know. Honestly, I don't think I really felt anything. Maybe somehow along the way when I lost my respect for you (*click), I've already kind of prepared myself for something like this.

Well, I must admit that I do feel a bit pity for you... maybe 20%-30% because I think you are not all to blame. There is the boss (who in my opinion hires wrong people - 2 very good examples here) , the other 'one' he hired and also the one with 'balls'. But the other 80%, it's all you man.

How much lower can you go? How much more respect is there for you to loose? Honestly now... S-P-E-E-C-H-L-E-S-S. Just speechless.

Anyhow, if you happen to be reading this, I hope you just wake up already and see what shit you threw yourself in. I don't know at this point now is there any more hope. But so you know, what ever it is,

DO NOT. AND I REPEAT. DO NOT THROW YOUR SHIT AT ME AGAIN.

I might be patient then, but I promise you, I am not who I was a few moths back anymore. You 'made' me like this. You 'broke' me and this is how I work 'broken'.

Everything happens for a reason, and for me being broken, the shattered glass me me see the bigger picture. Thank you.

Leave me alone

My work load is like the zombies in 'Quarantine'.

Just when you thought they are already dead after putting 2 bullets through their chest, the next thing you know, they ambush you by jumping out of the closet.

In. Your. Face.

Why won't they just die...... Leave me alone already....

A familiar stranger in the night

Got a very unexpected text message at exactly 1.47am this morning.

Who was it from? An ex. Shocked? Haha. I was kind of too.

Anyhow, he called after that and we chatted for more than 1/2 an hour, which made me over slept and was late for work... hmmph!

But, it was nice though. It was nice knowing that we are still friends after our history together. :)
