Someone? Anyone?

I read an article regarding global climate reaching its tipping point.

I kind of got scared imagining what would really happen to us if we went over the very thin line which is going to break soon.

It seems like we are not doing anything to reduce the climate change.

I seriously think government should provide a sufficient public transport such as the Rapid buses. Rapid buses provided are not enough and not on time. Maybe it is because of the traffic jam. But if the cars on the roads are reduced, then such problem won’t happen but SUFFICIENT and punctual arrival of buses are a MUST!!

And faster approve the work of building more LRTs to locations which doesn’t have such public transportation. For example to Puchong. I’m sure people leaving there have to wake up like super early to skip all the jams around Sunway toll and Federal to reach their work. The frequency of trains have to be increased and the carriages should be increased too! It’s not that I want to compare, I’m sure everyone agree the efficiency of Singapore public transportation. I’m sure we too can reach that level. But I’m hoping we can reach it like very SOON! And engineers which are in charged of planning the route to place the public transportation of stations, please plan it well. I seriously hope that we can get sufficient buses soon to over come the problems of mother nature since there is allocation of $$ to the public transportations. Hope it is put to GOOD use!

Hey do you realize that police traffics tend to cause more jams every morning instead of reducing them? I think the traffic lights are good enough unless the traffic light is spoilt. And another thing, the traffic light operation should be planed well. Sometimes it takes forever or terribly short time. So whoever is in charged of the operation of the traffic light please please please set it right according to the traffic of the road during rush hours.

And I think everyone would agree of demolishing the tolls. Tolls really cause so much traffic jam every morning and evening!! I thought some tolls have reached the collecting amount before reaching the contract year? Why can’t they make a small adjustment to the contract since the amount of $$ are collected to save the environment and also the publics money and TIME!!?? If that is done, I can guarantee MANY public users would appreciate such move.

Can someone out there voice that out? Maybe someone did it’s just that it’s not being heard or simply ignored. Maybe the someone is a single person…how about make the someone in a LARGE group of people and called the group as ‘Someone’.

So someone or anyone, please do something about it.

Bracelet update 5!!

Finally I've done 45 bracelets. Brings to total of 135 (sorry not 145) bracelets!!! Yeah!!!

Another 105 bracelets to be done!!

Another one leaving

Update: Pictures uploaded! Pictures are not very clear and taken using a sony hp.

Today, I had lunch Pavilion with 3 other friends. The lunch was to bid farewell to a colleague. Had lunch at Tony Roma’s. Service there was good. Food (set lunch) was ok. Nothing special about the food there. I had fish & chips while my other 3 friends had marinated chicken grilled. Dessert was TR avalanche…such a nice name huh…but it was 2 scopes of vanilla ice cream with chocolate brownie. It’s yummy though.

TR avalanche

Ordering set lunch, you get a bottomless soft drink. I couldn’t finish my fries…by the way there wasn’t any chips. Hehehe. Should be name fish & fries instead. Hahaha. The is also soup of the day (beef and vegetable) but my other three friends didn’t want and requested for mushroom and potato soup. In the soup there was a huge chunk of potato and the soup taste pretty much like Campbell. >__<

Yuk Ling, Me, Soo Ming & Poh Ling

Poh Ling, Yuk Ling & me.

We did take pictures but will only be uploaded next week. Now my throat is showing signs…thanks to the fries. Maybe should telan another strepsil extra strong.

Poem time

Curi someone's poem again...Bad bad me!! What the heck...*wink* Good things should be shared right? Enjoy!

Heart

So much have I lost this heart feels,
So much more this heart feels it would lose,
Like the silent angel I stand,
Watching over the people this heart cares for deeply,
Perhaps it’s a bond forged in another life time,
Indestructible by the forces of dwindling human emotions,
This heart stands firm,
Sun may not shine,
Moon may not rise,
But this heart shall always be there,
In thunder and drought,
Guarding, watching over the people it cares deeply.
I don’t love your body alone,
Soul mind heart together,
I love your heart that in turn loves your mind that loves your body.

So what do you all think? Romantic? Hehehe

Thoughts from a friend

Things looks normal for the surface but within it’s all so messed up. Actually it’s not that messed up but because of wanting to make everything looks so nice and pleasant for everyone, it gets all so hay-wired for the owner. The problem is that not everyone have the same taste in things, which makes it so difficult to please everyone. The owner of the display should have the right of placing the items on the display but somehow passer-bys will leave many remarks which make the owner thinking for so long and deep. Some passer-bys will say it’s your display, do it how you like and don’t think to hard and long. Some passer-bys will keep reminding the owner that don’t hide the items but certain items can’t b displayed so openly as it might not be liken by themselves. It’s so difficult right? Just one simple display can get so complicated. So complicated that the owner rather make it so simple on the display and hide all the things which are beautiful to the owner.

Got the above statement from a colleague when she was sharing her thoughts to me. Sigh! I tired to give my advice but I don’t know if things can get better. That’s why it’s so susah to be with humans..rather be with animals. Hehehe..They can’t talk to you at all. So no worries to share. Hahaha.

Leaving

I can’t FB in office anymore.. SAD!! I can’t play my dragon!! SAD!! This shows I’m a addict! DANG! I’ll be cured!

Yesterday we (6 other colleagues and I) had a farewell lunch at a Chinese Restaurant (next to Wong Kor Char Chan Teng) with a senior. Food is okie. Dessert is yummy-lious!! It looks too posh to get in there but the price is reasonable. Her last day is today! I used to be under her guidance for two months before moving to my new working place. She is a very smiley girl. But it’s pretty stressful working under her. Hehehehe. But it’s a sad thing she is leaving us to a different company for a different exposure. All the best to her!
Next Monday, another friend of my will be leaving the company. Sigh! So many people leaving. Sad!

It’s going to rain! It’s getting cold again. Not like it’s not cold everyday.

Bracelets update 4!

Done another 15. Yes I know I’m very slow. Another 160 more to be done! >__<

Not going to give up!!

Follow me?

Been addicted to ‘Follow me now’ after my friend passes me the whole album of Alvin and the chipmunk in mp3 form. So far that was my favourite song.

However for today, when I’m listening to this song today, I didn’t feel uplifted. >__<

I feel down. Too many things blocking my happy cloud! I don’t have the strength to bring up a smile on my face.

Here is the lyric.

FOLLOW ME NOW.

(Jason)
This morning I woke up and something had changed
I felt kind of good,
And it felt kind of strange,
There's something going on here,
And maybe it's a brand new world,
Or I'm just crazy insane.

(Alvin)
So everything's different,
Well I guess that's ok,
'Cause those thoughts that used to hold me down,
Have all gone away.
I feel like I could take on the world,
So come along for the ride,
Or just get out of my way.

(Chorus; Chipmunks and Jason)
C'mon, come on,
Get out, get out,
Let's go,
Won't cha follow me?
(Let's go, won't cha follow me?)
Come on, come on,
Get out, get out,
Let's go,
Won't cha follow me?
(Let's go, won't cha follow me? )
Won't cha follow me now?
Me now, me now, me now,

(Jason)
So tell me your secrets,
And I'll sell you my soul.

(Alvin)
There's a shovel in my heart,
And it's diggin' a hole.

(Chipmunks and Jason)
The Devil and the God in my head,
Are having breakfast in my brain,
And it's driving me insane.

(Chorus)
Chipmunks vocalizing

(Jason)
(Won't cha follow me now? x3)
Let's go, won't cha follow me now?

(Chipmunks and Jason)
Won't someone follow me now?

(Male Chorus)
Won't someone follow me now!

(Chorus with backup and echoes)
Chipmunks vocalizing

(Jason)
Won't someone follow me now?


So anyone to follow me now?

Belt up!

Read through Clove Two. It’s part of The Star newspaper. There was this article that caught my eyes. Actually there were many other articles which were very interesting to read about. But you can check it out yourself. The article I was interested has got to do with fashion…and it is BELT!! The article was written by Wendy Lee. I never know how to match certain type of belt with my clothing. Besides I don’t have many belts at all. >__<

There are 4 types of belt (according to the writer).

1. Skinny belt: The super skinny type of belt. Said to look great on slim women.
2. Medium belt: Wearable for any occasion and types of figures. I think that would be the normal belt.
3. Wide belt: The BOLD and dramatic which not really suitable for work. Well this is the on going craze for this type of belt.
4. Patterned belt: Printed, woven or embellished belts.

How to wear them?
1. For those with short torso and thick waist:
- Medium and wide belts below the navel is able to draw away the eyes from the abdomen. It’s true that it makes your torso looks a little longer meaning a little slimmer. I did wonder doesn’t wide belt make the torso looks bigger and giving the illusion that you have a bigger tummy? Hmmm…if you imagine for a while, it doesn’t. I kind of hides your flaws. But don’t wear contrasting belt and bottom. BIG NO NO!!

2. For skinny and body shape of rectangular:
That’s me! Hahaha. The writer mention tying the belt high around the waist. It gives hourglassy look and sensuous silhouette. Hehehe. She mentioned that wide belt must be wore under ribcage but to be wore with fluid dress meaning the flowy type and masculine tailored shirts.

3. To wear on top of your clothes and match it well:
You have to wear a longer top that covers about ¼ of your butt. Belt and top colour should not be the same. This is to allow the belt to look prominent.

4. The in-wide belt:
To wear them high on waist. Gives an image of longer legs and a long line that can be satisfying.

Here is the summarized from the article. But you can read it here! There are many great articles to read.

Hope I learn something from the tip. >__<

Bracelets update 3!

Yeah!!

Finally I've done another 15 bracelets! Adding to total of 75 bracelets over 250. Another 175 bracelets to be done! Seems a lot more to go! >__<

Back home

Fingers are starting to freeze again. Need to exercise them.

I went back to my hometown last weekend. I got to eat my granny’s zhang! Wasn’t able to buy bus ticket for Friday night as most of the tickets to go anywhere were totally sold out!! CRAZY! And there was this guy, don’t know which bus company; he was actually selling the bus ticket for BLOODY RM35 to get back to Muar! I was like…WTF!!! Some insane humans bought the last two tickets. I guessed these people were taking the advantage of price hike on diesel by selling expensive bus fare! I had no choice but to get ticket for Saturday. Bought the 9am bus ticket. The bloody bus company was selling RM16 to get back to Muar where the original price was RM12.30. BLOODY HELL!! The pricing on the ticket was still stated RM12.30 yet they are selling it for RM16. ARSEHOLE!! Should I mention the bus company? Hmmm. It starts with ‘H.’ I guess Muarians would know the company I’m mentioning.

I had to go back because my granny had made the Zhang for me. Can’t just waste them.

Got back home…the first thing I did was, of course chatted with my granny and had lunch in front of the PC and watched Ugly betty last 2 episodes. I wonder what would happen to her. My conclusion is that when the next season starts, she would appear really pretty and goes back to work in Mode and no one could recognize her and Daniel would get back to the company and try to get back from Willimina ( Is this how we spell her name?).

After the show, had to wash my pitiful looking fish tank. My tank had 4 pitiful goldfish. SAD SAD me! Hehehe.

Then I was hogging the PC again to check my facebook. Wait before that, I ate Zhang!! Wait, I didn’t had time to facebook. I remembered Bchan saying the first time she saw me was me eating when she entered my granny house. She said I was a greedy pig! Hey, I’m not ok!! That was my first…wait my second la..you don’t count Kee Zhang as bak Zhang ok…so it’s still my first Zhang okay Miss Bchan!!! You probably had more Zhang then me!! BLUK!! After that we were munching preservative fruits in front of the PC! Sounds like a greedy bum? We hogged the PC for a while and got downstairs and chatted with our 2nd sis regarding her wedding day. Oh by the way, our theme for the morning is YELLOW..for those tak tahu yet! Hehehe..She will tell you all but me kepoh, so I’m informing to you earlier. You (Zer and Yan) will probably know it. I had to ask her myself too. I think she terlupa la. Then we were munching peanuts with wasabi. At first we couldn’t find the wasabi ones then 2nd sis found it for us. She said we were bodoh! We munched and chatted. Alien Drian was sleeping like pig. Hahaha.

Then on Sun, had to take the 9am bus back! DAMN early!! Poor me! But I brought back Zhangs for my housemates and friends. Had Zhang for lunch!!! Hehehe. No pictures of the Zhang at all. Sorry! >_<

Ja-ne!

Frozen

IT"S FREAKING COLD!!!!

My hands are almost frozen!!

Why does offices love to decrease the temperature of the air condition? Do you really think that we are not humans but robots? And the whole building is centralized! The condition get worse when it is a raining day! But I'm really amazed that some people can withstand the coldness and wear short skirt or doesn't need to wear jacket. Or am I the weird one? Hmmm...

Will be going back to home town soon. I heard my friend saying the bus ticket increased by double. Hope is so not true. I did read about this issue in the Star online today. A bus ticket which goes back to Ipoh used to cost RM13 and the dealer sold the ticket for RM25. INSANE!!! Is it too much? Double the price!

Another 1hr and 15mins to go! And I'm out from here! Muahahaha.

Zongzi...slurp!!

What the heck is that? It’s also known as glutinous dumpling. The Chinese call it ‘Zong’ or ‘Zongzi’. A traditional Chinese food made of glutinous rice stuffed with different yummy-licious fillings and wrapped with bamboo leaves. Cooked either by boiling or steaming.

This Sunday, 8/6/2008 is Zongzi festival. According to the history, zongzi is eaten during the Dragon Boat Festival which falls on fifth day of the fifth month of the Chinese calendar, commemorating to the death of Qu Yuan, a famous Chinese poet. He was from the kingdom of Chu during the Warring States period. Famously known for his patriotism. He failed to warn his king and countrymen about the expansion of their Qin neighbours. When the Qin Dynasty took over the Chu capital in 278BC, he was very unhappy and took his own life by drowning in Miluo river after penning the ‘Lament for Ying.’ Now here is the role of zongzi. Zongzi were thrown into river to prevent fish from eating the poet’s body. Hmmmm… More like contaminating the river. Ignore my comment yah. >_<

My granny will be making the Nyonya zongzi. I’m so used to calling it Nyonya Zhang. Zhang is actually a pronunciation in teochew dialect. Then I hope my granny will be making Kee Zhang. Actually known as ‘Jianshui zong’, the glutinous is treated with lye water (aqueous calcium hydroxide) which gives the rice a light yellow colour. You can’t put too much of the lye water because it will make the rice hard. Then you will be eating stone instead. My granny’s nyonya zhang is whitish in colour. Usually other dumpling looks a bit of light brown due to the dark sauce is mixed together when preparing the rice. Different dumping from different dialect have different fillings.

Can’t wait to eat them. Oh yeah, by the way zer, you can’t get to eat zhang! Hehehe..I think yan will be able to eat. Evil me!

Bracelets update 2!

Latest update!

Did 60 bracelets already!! Yeah!!

Need to sleep now!

Nighty nighty!

I’ve found out bout my assessment result.

Dukacita anda GAGAL ujian yang telah diadakan pada 25/04/2008 hingga 16/05/2008.
That’s what is stated at the page. I failed to go through the next round. What the heck!

Here is something my friend came up. A little algebra for you all.
Eg. 1
Eat= gain --->1
Don’t eat= die
Eat= Die/ Don’t --->2

Replace 1 into 2

Gain= Die/ Don’t
Die= Don’t gain

E.g. 2
Eat+ sleep= enjoy
Die/Don’t + sleep= enjoy
Die + Don’t sleep= Don’t enjoy
Die= Don’t enjoy- don’t sleep
= Don’t enjoy + sleep
Die= Sleep

Hope you all understand the equations above. ^__^

Bracelets update!

Done 45 bracelets.

Will always keep an update! To remind myself that I have much more to do! >__<
