Ahaha... Find it funny that I kind of think that I'm addicted to buy stuff online via PayPal. Has the "itchy finger" feeling that just wanna click on the "buy" button, or always think of something to buy... Haha...
The first time I used PayPal was when I helped my Papa to subscribe to a Stock Market magazine. After that, I did not do much with online shopping. Only until my Birthday this year. I was playing a Facebook game, Zoo World. It had this really cheap offer of a Valentine Day animal, "Lovebird" at USD1.00 only. And by purchasing, it also gave 2 Wild Life Points, something crucial in the game. Maybe is because of the "Birthday factor", that I just couldn't help but to buy it via PayPal! To me, it was a great experience, because I really hardly buy stuff online and via PayPal, even though my sis always encouraged me to buy something online to experience the procedure and stuff.
After gotten my "first Lovebird", the game suggested me to buy another one, so that I can breed this bird later. Well, "I'm convinced" and there I was, getting another one! Wuahahaha...
My friend, Jojo, always advice me not to use real $$$ to play Facebook game. She told me to only do this during my Birthday. Now I could remember how overjoy I was when I told her "I did something really crazy today!" Haha...
Well, think few days later, this game had another offer! -- Wooly Mammoth at USD0.99! Plus 2 Wild Life Points as well. Woohoo~~~! I can't helped it! And so there I was, "Oops... I did it again!" Wuahahaha...
After this incident, I was "struggling" whether to buy the new offers by the game or not... Haha... Thank God, with the aid of my friend, Jojo, I could stopped buying a few offers. Oh... how I missed the "Flying Pig" now... :( Anyways, my latest purchase was this "UNICEF Blue Elephant". The game said that the $$$ I paid will go to UNICEF, a charity that help people to get clean water and sanitation. Jojo tried to stop me, but I "convinced" her that I was doing charity. Ahaha... As a result, I bought 2 "UNICEF Blue Elephants" via PayPal again! Haha...
Just now, I was checking my Gmail and found out the e-mail receipts from PayPal. As I read it, I had the "itchy finger" feeling again! Feel like buying something via PayPal! But got nothing to buy for now, as a result, I initiated this blog. Yup... long time never updated this blog. And this is what I blog after the long pause! Wuahaha... Something good is about to happen? Maybe! I hope! Well signing off now... I still wanna blog more, more & MORE!!!

Woohoo~! I am Fasting Now!!!
Life Update
Woohoo~! I hadn't been fasting for more than 3 years. But recently, I... fasted "just like that"! Am really really glad and with that kind of abundance joy, I couldn't wait to blog it down! Indeed, words cannot describe how I feel...
~ Being the Devil ~
Haha... The first paragraph is only an status update... Now I wanted to write down my down feelings... Recently a bad thing happened to me... I was like "being the devil", I felt so so sad & angry over this issue. It had been like a month already... I could still feel the hurt, and such is indeed a "daily hurt" to me now. But everyday, when I think that I could still feel the effect from the issue, I also know that the person whom I hurt the most, too, may have feel the pain too. I am really really, terribly sorry for the damage that I did upon the person. I will continue to wait for your forgiveness. "I'm sorry. Please forgive me." And I truly treasure the friendship between you...
Your words cut me deep. But I know that I hurt you too. You say, "you did it again!" I was really speechless. You were right, from your point of view, "I did it again." But from my side... sigh... I totally regret what I did, and I definitely learned a great lesson here. All I ever wish now, is to restore back our "special" friendship, and I promise, I promise I will not make any stupid mistake of gossiping & MISTRUST. Definitely, I will not fall into the trap of mistrust anymore.
You asked, "What kind of Christian are you?" You know, you're the first person who actually said that to me. The hurt is unexplainable. Things were not mean like this... But still, maybe you did sounded the alarm bell for me in my Christianity walk. Maybe... maybe this is one of the reasons that contribute to my fasting action...
Indeed, just amazed by the statement from my Pastor, he always say, "it takes years to build up the trust, but only take one stupid mistake to collapse the whole thing." Well, that's the strength of trust, mutual trust, and that's where the weaknesses lie too. I learned it, I totally regret it, and I hope you can gimme your final, final chance on me. I promise, I promise and I promise I will respect you as a very close & special friend.
"Forgiveness & re-trust, is all I ever asking from you now..."
~ The Lost of A Great Mother - My Grandma （外婆）~
I wanted to blog this down, but was delayed and delayed and delayed... Until now, I forgot what I want to say about it. Well... We all believe that she left us for good. For the condition that she suffered... I felt bad sometimes. About 2 years ago, 阿公 left us. It was really an unexpected event for all of us, even though the "signs" were there. But all of us were "lack of experience" to sense that. Ever since the lost, Grandma has become a totally different person in her physics and looks. She was so weak...
Then about 1 year ago, her only (younger) sister left too. We call her "Yee-po" （姨婆）one. Before Yee-po left, we also made a visit to her. The first time I looked at her, I really could not recognize her, I didn't even sure its her, until San-yee (三姨）asked us to call her, then I opened my mouth and called... Not long after... we received the news... The whole family didn't want to inform grandma about this. But somehow, deep down, it seemed that she knew...
But anyways, everything is alright now. She left us in peace and with great blessings! That's what the Chinese believe. ;)
~ Back to Fasting & God ~
After the issue of "being devil", God had been very good to me... He was there to comfort me, told me to lift up this whole issue upon Him and stuff like that. He always provide "word of seasons" or "word of 'just-in-time'" for me. We were talking about "team", and there were one Service, Pastor Kong ended the sermon with a short story about Michael Jordon. He said, reporters commented, "having Michael Jordon in your team is like having God in your team." Pastor then add, "God can be in your team too." I was greatly encouraged by the statement. And now I believe that "God is in my team". Ahaha...
The next great thing that God provided for me, was the opportunity to fast! I used to have the habit of fasting when I was very active in Church back then. Somehow, I was really excited about fasting. Ever since when "Fasting" was taught by my leader (Janice Seow) in Bible Study, I couldn't wait to fast!!! I could still remember the very first time of my fasting experience... :)
Anyways, a side story. Recently I happened to know 2 very very close friends in gym. Shall talk about them more next time. The point I want to make here is, I somehow told one of them, Jojo about my desire to fasting... Can't really sure why I brought this up to her, maybe I was too comfortable with her... or maybe I knew that she fasts too.
So as I told her, she encouraged me and shared with me the stuff about fasting. She told me she believed in me that I could find the chance to fast again. Nether did I know, the chance could come so fast! Thank you my dear friend, thank you for believing in me. :D
I went to the Service last week (29th Nov 2009), Pastor Kong told us that he was in the midst of fasting, and he would break his 21 days fast on 30th November. And somehow, my chance to fast started on the first day of December, i.e. the next day after he broke fast.
Generally, I fast for 8am to 8pm, 12 hours. I allow myself to drink water, plain water only. Kind of a "simple fasting" for me. And it is "convenience" too. Haha... But still, I assure you, this is not an easy task at all! You gotta go through the time of "lunch time but no lunch", "dinner time but no dinner", these are the time you will feel very much starvation to the extent that my hand would shake because of physical weakness. And the constant feel of hunger is no joke! And to me, the greater challenge is, to avoid letting my family knows about it. Because they may not think what I think, and they will strongly against it. So... :( I choose not to tell them for now.
Usually, the very first 3 days of fasting are the most difficult period, your body is at the stage of "getting used to it". I experienced a very strong "hand shake" during the 3rd day. But after the 3 days, the effect of hunger was not so strong already. It was kind of like "getting used" to it already... :)
On the 4th day of my fasting, I saw Pastor Kong posted a "note" titled "The Power of Fasting" in Facebook. I couldn't wait to read. And after reading, once again, I was greatly encouraged & inspired. To me, this is like another "word of season / word of 'just-in-time' " from my God again. Now, I was so so happy regardless of the stuff that I am going through now. :D I really thank God for everything! Anyway, this is the link for the article (both links lead to the same article):
http://www.facebook.com/notes/kong-hee/the-power-of-fasting/196460945684
http://www.konghee.com/www/2009/12/power-of-fasting/
During fasting, I always try to submit myself totally to God, i.e. extremely obedience. I will listen to what the Voice say and be ready to obey. During those period of seldom going to Church, no fasting, etc, my pride (the negative, bad pride) has risen. This is the result of the increase in my selfishness, anger problem and etc. That's why, I wanted to fast to "humble myself before God", that's the biblical purpose for fasting. To me, lack of humility is the root of selfishness and anger problem. Because it is all the bad & negative pride, you only think for yourself, and don't think on other peoples' perspective.
I really don't want to be a selfish person. I always wanted to tell everyone, this:
In addition, I don't have so much anger problem in the past, I mean I can control my emotion well, every friends see me as a nice person without getting angry... Though, I do get angry sometimes, and my anger usually subsides quickly. But not now recently, especially in this year, I lost control many times already... :( I was thinking, maybe the issue is something that really matters to me, that's why I get angry easily. But nevertheless, I will not let this be an excuse to face my anger problem / management.
I always want to fast to humble myself before God, and nothing else, that's the sole purpose of fasting. But immediately, God would tell me to fast for something else. I told God, I will fast solely on the purpose of self-humble. But God would say "that's enough". And He wants me to do something else, and He will remind me these 2 key words -- "Total submission" or "Absolute obedience", and so I gotta obey. This time round, God wanted me to fast for "Forgiveness". First, asking forgiveness from Him, and second, "Forgiveness" from people whom I hurt recently. And so I did... :)
I had been fasted for 8 days. And I really liking it. I truly wish I can keep up with the habit of fasting. I love fasting, but still, that doesn't mean it is always easy for me. It is very very tough to fast... Really. During fasting, I would always think that "I don't want to fast!" But still, as I remembered the purpose for my fasting, I would get back the desire & drive to carry on, no matter what... I really thankful to God for what he has been doing for me. :D

I really don't want to be a selfish person. I always wanted to tell everyone, this:
"Everyone is selfish, but I happen to be the least selfish one."And I can even say this:
"If a person say 'you're selfish', actually he/she is the one who is really selfish. A selfless person will never comment anyone who is being selfish, because with his/her character, 'selfish' is never a word appear in his/her dictionary."That is why, I always restrain myself from commenting people being selfish, because that will only reflect my own selfishness. But recently... I commented people being selfish... This is so not me... I felt so bad for my action. I really don't want to be this kind of person... :( And really,
"How you see others, is how you see yourself."Therefore, we really gotta be wise & think twice, three-times before we comment or judge about people. That's why, I always don't talk bad things about people. Ahaha... And I always try to look at the bright side of the hill, trying to find the good points and strength in people. ;)

My 2 New Soul Mates~! Sony Vaio & HTC Touch Diamond2
Main Label: Life Updates
~ I'm Back After MIA From This Blog... ~
OOPS! Neither did I know... time really flies~~~! Its been 2 months that I did not update his blog! A new record for me... Well, should I say, this is another blog about "losing focus" ba... But before that...
~ My First Soul Mate ~
oh... btw, I just realized that this is the very first time that I am using my First Soul Mate, aka Sony Vaio VGN-FW46GJ/B to blog!!! Woohoo~~~! I got my most beloved First Soul Mate on the 15th of August 2009, in the Bersada PC Fair! I went there with my sis, Finn.
Well... got a little story about getting this soul mate... Its all my clumsiness and ended up 摆乌龙 lor... haha... Mistaken that a deposit of RM500 had been given to the sales person but ended up realizing we haven't given to them! And was a bit angry... and then when we realized it our own, we felt paiseh lor...
Also, we got a nice optical mouse as Papa's Birthday present. And sis also got herself a HP printer...
A sad story to note... I finally got My First Soul Mate on 2015th August 2009, I was not able to collect on the day of PC Fair because no more stock already. So we rescheduled it to collect on 20th August. So happy... But... My Sony Vaio went to "Blue Screen of Death" on the 8th day after the collection! I was so angry and was really like "the world falls apart" like that... How would you feel when your newly bought lappy goes to blue screen of death on the 8th day of purchase???
After sadness & anger, it must be the time of "get back to reality" and solve the problem... Thank-God-ly, I did follow the instruction to create "Recovery Discs" the first few times I log into Window Vista. The 4 Recovery Discs actually included the Window Vista Setup programs and other backup tools to restore the lappy back to its default factory setting. So I used it to restore my new lappy... Everything was back to the default factory setting, and I gotta reinstall those "just installed programs" lor.
I googled about the problem and realized that what made my innocent Sony Vaio went to blue screen of death could be the Apple Quicktime thing. I was not sure whether this was the true or not. However, my lappy did went dying after I installed iTunes & Quicktime. So this time round, I would not dare to install Apple product... I really got the phobia. Instead, my sis introduced me to use VLC Media Player. I installed it, and man! It was good! My blog can play the background mp3 formatted music too!
Initially, I needed Quicktime so that my blog can playback mp3. But somehow, with VLC, it is much easier now! I am so happy! This is the only gain, or lesson learned from my lappy's blue screen of death... Nevertheless, I should be grateful. :)
~ My Second Soul Mate ~
And on 7th October 2009, I got myself another soul mate! -- HTC Touch Diamond 2!!! Woohoo~~~ Irene Tan YY, a new friend I knew from Clark Hatch helped me to get it first as she worked there... I'm thankful for her help! Haha... And oops, haven't got the chance to return her $$$ yet...
Having this HTC phone got its pros and cons. I am still at the stage of exploring & getting familiarized with the phone... It is kind of like my first PDA phone too. So there are many things still new to me. I only have one thought in my mind, i.e. "can I speak to a HTC staff about this phone? I have many many questions to ask!!!"
When I first got this Second Soul Mate, I realized that we have to make times and invest $$$ on this technology thing... IT stuff... One cannot be so far away from IT nowadays. So to me, it is an investment for me to upkeep with technology... I would want to use this as the starting point to explore all other things, such as Windows Mobile 6.1, TouchFLO 3D, etc.
In the beginning, I really liked my Second Soul Mate very much... Well, simply because it is my new toy! However, as I keep on exploring the phone, I figured that this phone is not as flexible as I thought. I personally like things that are flexible, more options, etc. Because I am kind of like a niche person, niche market, I like things to be more personalized in my own style, own way and own habit, even to the extent of little details do matter to me. Therefore, I really don't like gadgets that are rigid, limited options and lack of flexibility. But as for now, I will say that everything is still under "exploration stage", so maybe the problem can solved, and new features can be discovered ba... And I am not sure whether it is the problem of Windows Mobile or HTC phone itself...
This phone is a little slow... which at times can be annoying. And then I tried my friend's iphone, and it the speed was like instantaneously, indeed faster than Touch Diamond 2. :( I kind of like iphone now... haha... And also, I am still looking forward for Sony Ericsson SatioTM! Haha... ILIKE!
But as for now, it is still a nice phone to use... I like the messaging options, it provides many input methods for me to choose. But don't know why, sometimes the typed letter can auto capitalized and sometimes cannot. For example, the first letter of the first word, it will automatically capitalized, but sometimes, it just stays as small letter... Don't know why... I still need time to explore lor...
Oops... very long entry already... I shall stop now liao.
OOPS! Neither did I know... time really flies~~~! Its been 2 months that I did not update his blog! A new record for me... Well, should I say, this is another blog about "losing focus" ba... But before that...

But as for now, it is still a nice phone to use... I like the messaging options, it provides many input methods for me to choose. But don't know why, sometimes the typed letter can auto capitalized and sometimes cannot. For example, the first letter of the first word, it will automatically capitalized, but sometimes, it just stays as small letter... Don't know why... I still need time to explore lor...
Oops... very long entry already... I shall stop now liao.

Too Many Things To Do ---- I Am Losing Focus!!!
Main Label: Life Update
Argh... Again, too many stories happened!!! But... can I ever write them down? Sigh... Sometimes, I really wonder what is the purpose for me to set up this blog? I could remember that all the while I always wanted to write blog, to write down all my "Dramatic" stories in life, so that I can remember them, and I am so afraid that I will forget about them... With encouragement from friends, I started this blog. But I always don't have the time to update those interesting stories... Yes... My life has upgraded from "somewhat dramatic" to "totally drama-mama"! Argh~~!!!
~ ~ Too Many Things, Too Much Commitments, and Now Losing Focus ! ! ! ~ ~
~ 1. Err... HR Issues? ~
I had been busy with ... err... hmm... should I say "HR" -- Human relationship? And this eventually got me into doing some really stupid stuff... to the extent that I almost cannot forgive myself! Well... that's the time, Jesus came and challenged me again. Immediately, I gotta try my best to forgive myself... I am glad that things are rather coming to a happy ending as of until now... I thought it gonna have certain bad ending... But...
I always joke my life as a TV series... 电视连续剧... And I tell my friends this story is coming to final episode... and hoping for good ending... And... Season 2 is on the way~! With new character~! Ahaha... Yeah~! Charot!
~ 2. Angel @ work! ~
Did a super duper drama mama angel work... Confidential. ;)
~ 3. Stock Exchange ~
Started Buying Stock Exchange! Wish me good luck! I think the timing is rather right for me to go in to the market. But there're still a lot of things for me to learn, and I have yet to find the time to do the study and research, etc.
My father was very supportive and glad that I finally doing this... I asked him how he registered his online quotes service, because I wanted to buy shares too... Not long after, he introduced his broker to me. Actually, this is the way we communicated lah... haha... I hint hint him, then he would just bring his broker to me... Then this broker, Louise, is an old guy, helped me to register lor. He is kind and helpful and informative... Well informative in a sense that it's a little winding... Haha... But still, I am thankful.
I was told to open a personal current account in the bank, so that I can get the cheque book for the purpose of paying. And yeah~! I got my very personal cheque book for the first time! Ahaha...
Ok, ok... the point I want to make here is all about my beloved father's reaction... I got my share-buying account, it comes with number "121", my family love the number "21", so Papa was like... "Wah... you got such a nice number..." and he was smiling... Then I told him my current account number... He like lagi more happy lor... "Wah... also nice number leh... You asked for them to give this number for you, is it? Or... " Then I replied, "no lah, it so happened to get this number when I went to open account lor... Didn't ask them to reserve this number for me one lah..."
I think, to him, it is like good beginning lor... "好兆头!"
Then the next is about my mama... We (Papa, Mama & I) so happened to watch TV together in the morning while having breakfast, the show was “早安你好！” then it talked about investment, saying the best way to earn money, as in term of earning the interest, is by stock exchange. My Mama always put her $$$ in Fixed Deposit (FD), which Papa always knows that this is not a good method. So he emphasised it again. Because of the "economic tsunami" last year, the FD rate now is greatly reduced. Then Mama now also decided to put $$$ in stock exchange, she asked papa to buy for her, of which then, Papa refer her to me. Then recently, she finally gimme her $$$ and I transferred it into my account already...
I personally don't have much $$$ in my bank account, I only took out a little to do the "trying". Papa had asked my bro-in-law， Liang Jun（LJ) to help me with this thing. LJ was shocked the first time he heard that, because papa is the one he learned a lot from... But anyway, LJ introduced me to buy Pelikan... I wanted to buy 1 only, but my father said "buy 1 no use one, buy 2"... so I bought 2 shares lor... and of which, like left no more money for the rest liao...
Then after I transferred Mama's $$$... I thought I can "cheat" a little of those $$$ to buy my lappy... haha... But... not long after, Papa asked me to buy this shares using Mama's $$$... He asked me to call to broker and buy... He said 7 shares... But I hesitated...Then he was like, "what are you waiting for?" I replied, "7 shares? That's about 90% of Mama's $$$ liao." But eventually, I called and did the transaction already. Haha... A businessman's mindset is indeed different lor...
And now, Mama is going to gimme more $$$ to buy... Heh heh... I will try my best not to devour the $$$ for myself... haha... Oops... erm... Well... "just kidding"... I got "Integrity" one ok! Haha...
~ 4. Craving Sooo Many for Sony Products~
I am so materialistic lately... Especially I am craving for Sony products:-
1. Sony Vaio VGN-FW46GJ/B
2. Sony Ericsson SatioTM (not released yet, or maybe C905, or W995)
3. PSP 3000!!! -- maybe red colour! And with the GPS thing...
4. Sony Bravia S20 Series - Orange colour
5. And forgetting not, PS3 16G !!!
(Lazy to put up the pictures... XP)
See that? But right now, I sooo sooo sooo want the Sony Vaio lappy... I need a super duper powerful lappy for my multi-tasking life man! There's a PC Fair on mid August here in JB, Bersada Conventional Hall I think. I definitely want to get it at ALL COST! Haha... As for SatioTM, it is still not out yet... so gotta wait... Argh... I need more $$$ !!!
Yeah, I am not so much of a "iLife" person, but indeed, I am a "Sony Style" person, you see. ;)
My sis, Finn wanted to venture into T-shirt business... She kind of like feels that I am always "eng eng cheng cheng" (means "busy" in Hokkien) like that, so she asked me to help her. But of course, not because I am available so she asked me lah, but because 1. I am her brother, 2. I am clever. Haha... We did travel to KL before to look at the shirt printing machine before... But... it is not so ideal to buy it now.
At first, I only helped her as on the superficial level only, but now, I think I came out a pretty good name for our business, and that makes me now very driven for it! Haha... I hope things can work out good, better and best! Prosper, prospering & prosperous!
Prosper, prospering & prosperous in my 1. stock exchange, 2. new shirt business, and 3. Sony products!!! Ahaha...
~ 6. PeiO and Ah Fer Came In JB Again ~
Yeah~! I asked PeiO, and finally they came again! This time I introduced my new friend, Wayne to them. We were having great time together! Lunching, shopping, dinnering, nite-time teaing, and PeiO can do her auntie-hobby here -- prawn fishing! or "prawning"? Haha... I still cannot believe that I got friends who love such hobby! So auntie... Haha... But, but, but... she managed to hook 3 prawns... And this is not her best record lor...
I shared with them what I had gone through with the HR thing during a long journey to the "legendary" Japanese restaurant. The traffic was slow because it was after work time, going-home time, so I managed to tell my long long story during the long drive... Haha...
And yes, the Japanese food was nice! When we got there, we gotta wait for about 1 hour, and that's the time we went, err... I mean PeiO went prawning... Haha... Think PeiO got the photos for the day... Will ask her to upload into Facebook ba... But she is like forever busy...
Oh yes, btw, PeiO's boy boy proposed to her! I first got this news from reading Ah Fer's Multiply blog. Was a little upset that she didn't tell me in person, but its ok. After I verified with her, I am still happy for her! "HAPPILY EVER AFTER" to you PeiO, you are always my 女神!
~ 7. Listening to Secret Garden music ~
I happened to find this song calls, "Song from a Secret Garden" from my data, it was sent by Ah Fer via gmail like long time ago. I listened to it and realized that I totally like it! I spent one whole Sunday trying to put it into my blog site. I was like wasting the whole day and finally found out the problem and solved it already. Now I hate box.net! It was given me the biggest problem in putting the music in my blog. The link it provided was not a mp3 format. That's why cannot play music. I uploaded the song to "google" site and it works eventually!
Anyway, I was shopping again and happened to found this song! With only a little time of hesitation, I bought this album from Secret Garden. It is a "Deluxe Version", like a compilation, it comes with 2 CDs and 1 DVD. It cost about RM80 for the whole package, after Popular Bookshop member discount. At first I thought I was buying this song for RM80. But thank-God-ly nope, I fell in love with many of the songs inside. Yeah~! Glad that I owned it now.
~ 8. Continuing My Lasam Life Now ~
There are many issues in my life that are right now in "Keep In View" (KIV) mode. At the same time, there are also many things waiting for me to do... especially work stuff. And now gotta venture into new business... Wish me all the best and pray for me ya! Gotta get busy now! Will defintely update again!

A Long Waited Update But Hope that it is Not So Long Entry
Main Label: Life Updates
~ An Unusual Being ~
Woohoo~! Finally got myself a little time to do a long waited update... And oops again... The whole of May I didn't blog!!! Sigh... I am overly committed with much stuff in my life... But today I am somewhat so exited! This morning woke up just "fresh" and full of energy even though I slept about 2am last night! Well... there's something about me that I always wanted to tell people... that I really have an unusual, funny thoughts mechanism, or behavioral mechanism that is totally opposite from the usual way... Like, in this case, if people lack of sleep, they tend to appear low energy and stuff... But for me now, I am way too excited and energitic that I don't even know what's going on with me... I remembered PeiO, my 女神... she is of similar to me in this case... If she lacks of sleep, she is like a crazy woman! Haha... energitic, lots of crappy words coming out from her... Well... I am kind of like that now too... Ahaha... And that just gimme the energy, the "courage" to do some blogging now... Ahaha...
~ Drama Mama Lieh ~
Again... Too much stuff and events and stories happened in between my last blog... Really again... it is like I just can't cope up by blogging those stories down... My life is changing from "somewhat dramatic" to "really dramatic" now... And the episodes just keep on adding on and on, there's no playback! No rewind! I wanted to write down a dynamic episode, but the next moment, another dynamic event occurred! Ahhh... too much stories to tell... too little time to jog them down...
~ Emo Elmo Lieh ~
There was this time, I was really down and "Emo Elmo"... I browsed photos in my hand phone memories... those pictures was like "come to life" to me... every picture brought me back to the moment that how I wished I could go back time and dwell at that moment again... And that's the time, I realized... memory is very important to me... Technology are so advanced that you can capture all kinds of memories via photo-taking, video-recording, voice-recording, blogging down and stuff... But technology hasn't been so advanced yet that it can bring you back to the moment... Aigh... maybe it is for the good...
~ Shanghai Trip Updates??? ~
I wanted to blog down, to record down my trip to Shanghai, a moment of great experience & relax & etc. etc. But... guess nope... at least is not now... I hope I can still remember all the stuff that I had learned during the 9 days trip... Well again... a lot of things happened during the trip... It is indeed "happening"! Other than site-seeing, shopping, enjoy delicious food, buying & spending, feeling cheated by buying those stuff, relaxing and stuff... Our group also had "internal problems"... I am quite amazed by myself, about my ability to analyze, to understand people within a very short period of time! Well... somehow I think I am getting better in doing tims... Aw... my mind now is generating lots of possibility now... About how I can use such talent to change the world... for better of course... but... aigh... My God, my God arh...
~ Got My First Ever Principal Credit Card ~
Yeah~! Finally I had gotten a principal credit card for myself~! Yeah~! I myself didn't apply for it... The Maybank decided to gimme one because of certain criteria of which... I forgot! Ahaha... To think that last time I was trying to apply Eon Bank credit card but was rejected! Hmmmp! But this time round, I received a call from Maybank KL when I was at home... The lady on phone informed me about this credit card... As usual, I was skeptical about the call... afterall, phone-call cheating is very common... But then it is not a cheating phone-call afterall! The lady told me there's no "terms and condition apply", no minimum usage required, I am free to use whenever Iwant or Ican choose not to use it at all. And there's no annual fees stuff too! But... who knows what will happen in the future?!
Nevertheless... I am grateful for a credit card like that too... I always wanted my own credit card, and to be indepentant from my lovely dad. It is definitely good to have a supplement card from daddy... but he was complaining about not returning him the $$$! Ahaha...
~ New Lappy?! Definitely! ~
Now with my credit card... erm... 2 credit cards! I am planning to buy a laptop! Sony Vaio! Seires FW something... Now waiting for a PC Fair or something... Yeah~! Buy via instalment! Hallelujah~!
~ New Way of Blogging?! ~
Well... until now you may have noticed... my different style of blogging... I wanted to try new style of blogging too... My previous way was way too meticulous, although that's me. Yet still... it is time consuming and I am always looking for a quiet time for me to write down a very detailed entry, and of which, such time is very difficult to get... So I am writing more stories... like a summary, by minimizing those little details, and of which, are still very important to me though...
Another reason for blogging in this manner is because... well... you know... I am now very excited & energitic due to lack of sleep (LOS)... so I didn't care much and "just do it" lor...
Yes! This style of blogging is extremely disorganized and messy and raw and blah blah... But... that's what blogging is all about... Your style, your mood, your attitude, your literature, etc... all blended in, or mixed into your blog entry... Don't have to make any sense sometimes, because there are times it is not the stories, or "what is going on?" that words are trying to capture, but the "emo", "feelings", "memory" that words are trying to capture, you know what I mean? Cos I am now really can't be bothered about how people reading this entry, I am aware that it can be misleading... but... still... I am "just do(ing) it"! Ahaha...
Going to do some work now... I wish I can blog more and more and more! Do more and more and more! Life is not boring to me, but life is too busy for me! XP

Life Can't Cope Up with My Blog Updates
Main Label: Life Updates
Haha... Time really flies when I'm busy living with my life with all sorts of funny incidents and stories keep on going around my life and eventually I kind of like "lost contact" with my recent memories and therefore failed to update my blogs with the freshness of those stories.. It was like I was so busy living with those interesting, somewhat dramatic life and it was so "intense" that I left not much time blogging them down... Ahaha... funny, funny...
Now I really don't know where to start... Hmmm... Okay, got it...
~ A Social-able Year of Reunion with Old Friends & Getting Know New Friends! ~
In the beginning of this year, I happened to read a source of Chinese Horoscope about this year. I read mine, of which is "monkey". It said that this year happened to be a very socializing year for me of the possibility of getting back, or reunion with old friends and the chances of getting new friends. And also, in the middle year, there will have higher chance of getting attached!
Well.. I find it very true for the initial statements... Until now, I had met lots of old friends, and those hard / seldom to see one. There was once I went to Singapore Immigration Centre and I met Chew Peng, my secondary school band member! She was rushing to work, so we didn't talk much... And in my previous entries, I already mentioned that I had met Samuel, Haw Chon and Wei Yuan... Also, it so happened that Haw Chon had teamed with Cher Sie, my secondary school classmate to gimme a "surprise" Birthday celebration! I was touched and "surprised" by their "bloated-out surprise"! Haha... But that was another story...
Then in the Facebook (FB), Yi Wen posted our secondary school photos that eventually attracts all those classmate to drop a message. And because of that, we all had added one another in the FB! It brought back lots and lots of memories of those school times...
I guess those were enough to explain that I indeed had met many old friends... So what about new friends? Recently, I met Wayne Sam in the Clark Hatch Fitness Centre. Wayne was a friend of my sis, Finn. She asked him to add me in the FB and gym together with me. And he did. The first time we talked, he was like saying every time he saw me in the gym and he commented this "Hmmm... this guy really look like Finn." Ahaha... So I told him "so you must approach me first mah because you can recognize me..." At first, I saw his FB profile photo and it was quite difficult to recognize him, so I asked him to approach me first...
I always gym alone, attending those classes alone. And of course, I don't mean that I am being lonely and pathetic lah... At times, I prefer to be alone while working out, I can be more focus and time saving. I really don't like those social talk with people there, because it is really diverting my focus and wasting my time. And again, of course I am not rude enough not to talk to anyone who approach me lah. Then now came along Wayne who spices up my gym time. And because we have a lot of common interests and stuff, within shortest possible time, we became very good friend and gym buddy lor... Haha... Now we always go to classes together like Body Pump and Body Combat. And because now got someone accompanying and encouraging me to go for other classes, I attended Body Balance recently and found myself like it very much! Though I still can't balance lah... Haha... In fact, I find that Body Balance is really of good help for me to do some work while working... With some balance body gesture, I can do the work with more effectiveness!
Then there's this instructor from Philippines, his name is Dan. He is the one who teaches Body Combat and Body Pump. He talked to me first and then he introduced his friend Ryan to me. Ryan was a member of the Clark Hatch too. And actually, Wayne had already made friend with Ryan and Dan before I did. Yesterday was a public holiday for us. We actually met up for lunch, (Wayne wasn't with us for the lunch because he had something on) movie and dinner. There's a total of 6 of us. The 3 Philippines Instructor, Dan, Ireen and Edward, Ryan, Wayne and I. Ireen is the Body Balance instructor and Edward is teaching Pilate, Yoga and Body Balance too. Because of common interests, we get along very well... Ahaha...
~ Movie: Fast & Furious 4 ~
And this week I was suppose to meet Samuel for a movie and it ended up he watched a movie with the 6 of us in Tebrau Jusco. So the 7 of us watched "Fast & Furious 4" which was in fact a very good, well-done movie. I was surprised and touched by the movie the fact that the story has certain depth in it... of friendships, loves, betrayal, and stuff... At first, I thought this kind of movie is all about car racing, get a dumpy storyline to fit in those racing scenes or car chasing scenes like that. But this movie is not so, it is packed with interesting story with twist at certain moments and with those really exciting speeding scenes. I find it the last scenes of car chasing in the hidden mine area is something very new. I simply enjoyed the movie perfectly!
After the movie, Samuel gotta leave to do his own stuff and back to the 6 of us, went for a dinner at the famous Nasi Lemak shop at Permas Jaya. My stomuch wasn't feeling well, but as a courtesy, I joined them to eat the famous Nasi Lemak. And the fact is, that was my first time there, so I would like to try it out. But to my taste, I don't really like it leh... Maybe because I heard so much about it and had high expectation towards it... Or maybe because my stomuch wasn't good that time... Anyway, we continued our "crazy" topics there and Ireen kept asking me to talk... "So 'Willy', tell us something about yourself" she said... And yah, they called me "Willy"... Haha... I got a new name... Anyways, my mind was empty and I couldn't really talk much... Ouch, stomachache, can't talk lah.. .Haha... Anyways, we called it a day about 9pm++.
The moment I got home and read an SMS from Phyllis... OOPS! I was not supposed to eat my dinner because I had previously promised to do a blood test the next day (i.e. today)! Aiya... to think that I was considering whether to eat or not just now... Sigh... Nevertheless, have to postpone the blood test...
The Dan, being the natural leader in the gang of 6, has a habit of sms-ing us a "motivational message of the day". As a way of "returning favours", or "showing off", if you prefer to say that, heh heh... I "counter" back a quote to him. And this morning, I prepared a message for him too... Just waiting for him to send me first, and in fact, he did. The moment I read the message, I was so shocked! It was the exact quote from Oprah Winfrey that I prepared this morning! How in the heaven could such coincidence be happening! You know, “买马票都没有将准啦！” "Buy 4D also no such accurate lor!" That makes me wonder, maybe I do come with certain psychic power afterall... Haha... Anyways, here's the quote:
Now I really don't know where to start... Hmmm... Okay, got it...
~ A Social-able Year of Reunion with Old Friends & Getting Know New Friends! ~
In the beginning of this year, I happened to read a source of Chinese Horoscope about this year. I read mine, of which is "monkey". It said that this year happened to be a very socializing year for me of the possibility of getting back, or reunion with old friends and the chances of getting new friends. And also, in the middle year, there will have higher chance of getting attached!
Well.. I find it very true for the initial statements... Until now, I had met lots of old friends, and those hard / seldom to see one. There was once I went to Singapore Immigration Centre and I met Chew Peng, my secondary school band member! She was rushing to work, so we didn't talk much... And in my previous entries, I already mentioned that I had met Samuel, Haw Chon and Wei Yuan... Also, it so happened that Haw Chon had teamed with Cher Sie, my secondary school classmate to gimme a "surprise" Birthday celebration! I was touched and "surprised" by their "bloated-out surprise"! Haha... But that was another story...
Then in the Facebook (FB), Yi Wen posted our secondary school photos that eventually attracts all those classmate to drop a message. And because of that, we all had added one another in the FB! It brought back lots and lots of memories of those school times...
I guess those were enough to explain that I indeed had met many old friends... So what about new friends? Recently, I met Wayne Sam in the Clark Hatch Fitness Centre.

Anyways, here's the quote:
"Doing your best at this moment puts you in the best place for the next moment."Well, I guess those new friends are more than enough to illustrate my "really"-social life already? Haha... Let's see will I get attached this mid-year... Ahaha...- Oprah Winfrey.
~ Revelation of Love ~
Sigh... When I thought this chapter of my life (no, I am not refering to "revelation of love" here) is coming to an end, then there it comes a glimpse of hope that light up the possibility of next chapter... new episode... Sigh... somehow my life is full of so many possibility of interesting story and even though, there are so many interesting story going on with my life now... Haha... I do have a very positive mindset afterall... Wayne commented that my sis and I are high EQ people with very positive thoughts... Haha... I am just overly positive and keep on imagine stuff lah...
I always say this, and this became my very own favorite quote:
"He who loves much, possesses much."And maybe because I really love, and love a lot, I do possess those I love in one way or another. And also because, "love" and "pain" are related, I suffered pain as well at times. Love more, hurt more; Love deeper, the cut is deeper... But all and all, that does not stop me from loving... :D- Guru Willy... Ahaha... that's me.
Recently, just recently... something stirred in my heart, and that was what I referred in the sub-topic "Revelation of Love", that brings me back to the love of God once again... Hah! Somehow, when you think that "God is not in the office", "He is in the workspace working right next to you!" Or if you would prefer, "He is working right inside your very heart..." In fact, God was speaking to me in the beginning of the movie yesterday... Something had troubled me and I couldn't focus on the movie, and so I told God to gimme the peace and stuff, so that I can focus and enjoy the movie. Then He comforted me, giving me the peace I needed. I didn't feel the goose bump, the intense of God's presence wasn't there as well. But there's this "certain love feelings" that flows out from my heart and was telling me something, thus eventually settled my heart so that I could enjoy the movie...
Last night, as inspired by many sources of thoughts and stuff... I came into this "Revelation of Love", and when the full sentence is finally formed, it somehow sounded so familiar as if I had thought of this before... Sigh... I am really a forgetful person lor... Here's the quote:
"It is funny that in love-ship, we tend to find the one and only Mr. & Mrs. Right that worth us giving up everything and anything in life just to be with them, yearning for the 'Happily Ever After'. You search high and low, and finally... and (of course) surprisingly, you've truly found him / her, someone that worth so much that you are willing to give up your faith, your family, your friend, your money, time and effort, your future and stuff... and that's the time you will realize that the one and only Mr. & Mrs. Right of yours, will not ask you to give up your faith, your family, your friends, your future, your everything just to be with him / her! I'm not sure whether this is the 'true love', But one thing I am sure is that, this is indeed 'the love in its purest form'. Oh, God I'm contented! Really..."Well... my tears almost running down now... Haha... Hmmm... I think this is something similar to the idea that was saying around the Internet long lond time ago... "The one who worth your tears is the one who won't make you cry..." “一个值得让你流泪的人，是不会让你流泪的。。。” or something like that... haha... I was just talking to my sis in MSN now... here's another quote that I wrote to her...:- Guru Willy, and that's me... Ahaha...
"When a couple's love becomes stable, it opens the opportunity for the couple to go for his / her own interests. And this brings back the threat of losing attention of one another"Heh Heh... If you could truly understand the essence of "He who loves much, possesses much"... May you find inner healing in any situation of your life now. ;) gtg to help Papa in his PC now... I wish I can blog more. :(- Guru Willy again... haha...

Reunion with Good Friends - Part 3
Main Label: Life Flashback
Yes! A long waited entry... Finally again... managed to find some time to continue this long waited entry liao... Haha... Hmmm... now I even forgot how to continue the story... sigh...
I guessed I stopped at we "lost contact" after Nanyang Poly ba... Then we carried on with our life not contacting one another until... this year's CNY... On the 4th day, 初四，after receiving this special sms, and in the afternoon, he called me finally and we had a short chat after which, we arranged to meet on that night to have a long catching up!
And then another twist had come then... Not long after, Haw Chon, sms me again. Haw Chon... the very best friend of mine when we were in secondary school... Well, he is also another long stories lor... To really cut short the story, Haw Chon also befriended with Samuel very well every since we all know one another. Haw Chon and I had also "lost contact" some times / years after we graduated from Riverside Secondary School... He went to KL to further study since then, we managed to meet a few times. But after he flew to Australia, we really lost contact since then. And until recently, like last year, managed to "find him back lor"...
Ok, come back to the CNY story. Haw Chon, who prefers people to call him as "Haw" now, happened to be in JB, his hometown for CNY. And he asked me whether I got any programs for the night, I quickly replied to him the news about Samuel. And the very night, the 3 of us met up together after a separation for about 12 years!!! We all concluded that it was an absolutely rare gathering! We had a good catching up and stuff and finally went for a movie, Underworld: Rise of the Lycans, a highly not recommended movie though...
Through the chatting / conversation / catching up, I learned that:-
1. His father had died of lung cancer before CNY, therefore he was in JB to 避年 “avoid CNY", and he stayed in his "friend's" house.
2. I asked, "of all the years, what makes you contact me now?" And he said that he so happened to check the e-mails in the "friend's" house, and happened to read my "Cow-Bull-Ox" email and then he was reminded about me.. .Ahaha... So I guessed sending greetings occasionally does provide "certain" help one way or another ba...
3. I changed my mobile phone number quite frequently, and I just wonder how he got this Malaysia number of mine. I remembered that I didn't tell everyone about this number leh... After some time of thinking, I remembered that I did emailed everybody this number, and the Singapore number last time ba... That's the only possible way le...
4. He then changed the word "my friend" to "my girl friend". Haha... so funny, should have said it in the beginning mah... And that could explain lots of stuff already... lol.
5. He knew his girl friend in JB. She is working in a facial wash shop where Sam went there very often. It was through the regular met-up that the 2 of them had come together. And therefore he always comes in JB here to do the spending and as usual, his comment about spending in JB is definitely "real cheap". He comes in here to buy birdnest for his mother, car washing, movie, etc. etc.
6. And now I have one movie-kaki here in JB liao... No need to watch "expensive movies" in Singapore liao.
7. Now we are planning to meet more old friends! But until now, not much progress... :( I also planned to go to his house to "finally" pay his family a visit to show my gratitude and stuff, but again... I failed to do until now, because I am reserving my passport pages for Shanghai trip on April.
There was once we planned to meet up for a lunch with another mutual friend, Wei Yuan, who is now a wanton mee business owner. It was his family business for the three genation, and if have any chance, I will definitely bring my friends and family to eat one. It is very tasty one! And he had a website one: http://www.hosengkee.com go there for more information.
His timing is always very pack and had little holiday or rest, but it so happened that recently he gotta move to a new location, his family and himself had one week "holiday" to do the shifting preparation and stuff. And thank-God-ly, we arranged one Saturday for the lunch in Permas Jaya, 二重丸, another nice Japanese food restaurant in JB... Their Salmon Sashimi comes with dry ice as decoration and giving those smokey effect lor... Just before the day we had arranged the three of us for the lunch, I received a sms from Haw Chon, saying that he would be back to JB this weekend and asked me got any plans or not. So I told him he had come back for the right timing! And on that Saturday afternoon, it was another mere rare gathering for the 4 of us! Don't think that this is not so rare lor, poor Wei Yuan gotta head back for preparing his new shop after his lunch. His phone kept ringing while he was eating. And we had spent only an hour together for the lunch and after that, he rushed back to do his stuff liao lor...
It only left the 3 of us and we planned to watch movie, but no timing suited 3 of us because I would be having a company dinner that night. So we shopped around and sat down in Starbuck in Jusco. Talking about many stuff, and Haw Chon was eyeing at a new dual SIM phone from Samsung, the Samsung D980 Dual SIM touchscreen phone. But it was quite expensive... When about 5.30pm, we left and called it a day lor...
In life, there are many things that you can happy of, and of course, there are also things that make you sad and want to complain about life. To me, even when life has many problems that are yet to solved, as long as there're also stuff or events that can "make my day", I will be very happy and ragain the hope and energy and belief to challenge those problems again. What are those stuff that can "make my day"? -- Meeting close friends, talking topics that we are interested to, watching movies and stuff, etc. etc.
But I had a challenge... most of my friends are in Singapore... And really, the spending in Singapore is quite expensive, and to me, because of the currency rate, everything are all double cost to be. But as compare to JB, it is another story, another heaven for Singaporeans. That's why I keep promoting to Singapore friends to come JB here to spend, to watch movie. My idea of watching movie in JB as compared to Singapore is, using the price of one Singapore cinema ticket to watch movie in JB (or Malaysia) is like "buy one gets one free". yes, you can buy two tickets in JB with the price of one Singapore movie ticket lor... This is like a win-win situation for both party... First win is for friends who can "save a lot" while spending here, second win is for myself that I no need to spend those double cost lor... Unlike when I am meeting friends in Singapore, it is not a win-win situation, everything is double cost for me. And for themselves, they only spend "normally", and not cheaper lor... Haha...
That's why I appreciate friends like Sam a lot lor... And also to those who love to spend in JB one lor... Haha... Oh yes, Ting Ting, if you're reading this, I am refering to Reub and you lor... Ahaha... If wanna save up for London Legoland trip, then must spend time and money in JB lor... Haha... I am waiting for you 2 to come in and find me!
Just recently, I had another 2 friends to come in JB to meet me... But that was another interesting story that waiting for me to blog about if I have the time lor... But nevertheless, I also wish that I have more friends who are willing to go out of the comfort zone in Singapore and make a trip to JB where heaven awaits you... Erm... heaven lor... win-win situation also, you're either in shopping and eating and movie heaven or if you meet robbery, you might also go up to heaven straights... Ahaha... just joking... NO, just becareful when you're in JB. :)
