disappointment...

2007-09-09T13:03:00.000+01:00

you disappoint all of us...

you never learn from your mistakes !
.. now that you're far away outside, thought that you'd learn to be better from the outside world. you never know how worry we are all these while since you left.
When you told me the news and reasons of choosing this path in your life, I thought u've grown to be a mature person. But you DID NOT. you let us down.
Loads of fights and arguements in this house because of the trouble you've made. Been telling you tons of advices, but you refused to listen. Giving you better suggestions, but you refused to take it.. . Now that things had gone so badly, telling lies one after another. where're the trust and promises you gave ? Aren't you have a lil regrets ?
.. He's not everything in you life. you've got me, and all of us here who giving you lots of loves. We never left you behind and you knew that from your heart.. you knew it ! I know you knew it !! *sob sob* ............

in case you've forgotten this; they're getting old.. they smile with wrinkles, white hairs growing out. why can't you let them live their life without worries ? don't let them frown again please.. *sigh*

when will you be awake ? - Now is not too late. turn around. We're just right there for you to reach out anytime.

tiring...

2007-08-26T16:07:00.000+01:00

Foooh ! finally ! ..tiring but *yey*.. clean, neat, simple and comfortable !

Been cleaning up the house for 2 days ! Rearranging some furnitures - moved the huge photostate machine and 2 book racks into the study room instead of putting it at the "suppose-to-be a" nice, wide dining area. Throwing out loads junks from my house. Forcing my mum to clean up her "mess".. especially her bookssssssssss and paperssssssssssssss !! *keep nagging on her* :( how bad am I.
Get my 18 yrs old piano waxed! now she shines even more *hee* bought a nice lamp to accompany her in the night, and display some of my photos on her *just in case she miss me* hehe..
Ooh, I accidentally found out my fav toys - a box of Lego !! I re-built + design 3 new houses for my tiny lil sweet couple-4cm tall still... they never grow :'( a glass cage for the 2cm big red parrot and a small garden for the black horse *he grew! no more a pony! :p
.......................................

Had a very bad dream yesterday night... dreamt of someone I loved, cruely left me :( It was horrible-sad-unbelievable.. it was so real !! I realised I am crying when I woke up in sudden!... *aiks! not again!!* Quickly grab the phone and rang darling. It was 6 in the morning. He's still in Simon's house.. I relieved after I spoke to him and dozzed off again! Woke up at 10.30am this morning, I couldn't stop laughing myself out after recalling all these !! hahaha...
*Stop saying u're leaving me again :( those dreams aren't sweet at all :'(

Sending my mum off to Malacca this afternoon. Attending some meetings for a week... Fetching her back on Merdeka Day.

Well, it supposed to be home-sweet-home, but a feeling of lost and hollow came to me - omy, i gonna miss him soo much.. which i realised i've been so used to him by my side all the time in london. someone whom I rely on all these while. darl, miss ye loads loads

.......................
Once my dad drove to Segamat town, it seems everything are so NEW to me. Fajar supermarket was gone and a new Giant came out, new shop lots, Oh, the McD is still there ! *gigs*

...for the entire night, I couldn't make myself to sleep although i'm terribly tired. I' walked around my house from front to back, upstair to downstair, going thru each and every corner (even the storage room) 'tic-tac, tic-tac, tic-tac' switching on and off, played with the lights - for uncountable times, with empty brains, and no reason why.

"mummy! where're my old books ? mummy! where're my stuff ? Daddy! where's my file? Daddy, where're my boxes? mummy! where're my this-and-that-etc-etc-etc. " oh dear.. I've only gone away from home for only 8 months and nobody touches my things at all. Flipping through my old books, digging out my old junks - And Yes, everything seems so new to me now !! *hee*

And now, a question keep pop-ing out in my mind every now and then "what am i suppose to do for this few months ?" to get rott at home ? ohmy.. i need a plan *sick sick sick*

grace is hungree now..

Easter Holiday

2007-04-12T11:34:00.000+01:00

It's already the 2nd week of Easter hols. Can't believe i'm back from 6 days of road trip.. things just flew by.. been having a real fun and interesting days. We rent a car and........... wOOoohOo !

Day 1 :
London . Morning . get dressed and packed ! Rent a Vauxhall Astra 1.6 car from 'national'... [sadly, non of us aged 25 and above, got to pay extra charged] Stop by a shop to get a book of A-Z Great Britain map. We -Isaact, Shu Hui, and Me (3 map-idiot) flip .. flip .. flip .. flip "Huh?? how to read this map?" hahaha ;D we then approached an OLD man with an antique specs. *how shame we are*

Isaact: "excuseme, how to read this map eh?"
O. man: "oo, where are you going ?"
Me: "Edinburgh"
O. man: "Eeedinburrgghh. Ah! use M1 motorway! hmm.. COME Come, lemmi show you!" grab an EXTRA huge map from the rack and start showing us..

We drove from London way up to Manchester for a night.

Manchester

Day 2:
Manchester . Spent a day discovering Manchester city. Bought ourself a Metromax ticket, hop into the tram stop by places and places. Manchester City quite small tho !

The tram

Manchester city seems like a *Brownish-red city* for me...

China Town

I was amazed by this Hilton skycraper building !! Stand-alone modern glass building in the middle of city, surrounded by old low-rise buildings. A big contrast between it!

Okay, here comes the famous Old Trafford Stadium - Manchester United Football Club !

When comes to night, we start our journey again to Lake District. Slept overnight in the car.. took a hot bath at a highway station ! ;p

the beautiful lake district

2007-04-12T16:15:00.000+01:00

Day 3:

It was 8 something in the morning, in the car, my eyes are glued shut with sleep but i manage to eventually pry them open, and so continue our Road Trip again.. Had quite a buzz of excitement over the whole trip.. Along the journey, drove in betwwen the hills and mountains, I was drawn to the lovely way the milky white sheep on green hills, matched up with the blue blue sky. It was too beeeautiful.. I couldn't stop snapping photos..*never want to put myself into the pics as it would spoil the scene* Lol.. ;p

Isn't it beautiful ?

The papa sheep, mama sheep and the babies..

an hour flew (more like drove... *hehe)
Finally we reached Lake District ! head for a quick brush up at a public toilet and wander around that place.. As i breath, i could smell the cool fresh oxsigen, the wind hit on me and wrap me up ! *freezing*

It looks more like a fishing village for me.. *hee*.. People prepared their boats, brought along their dogs.. mostly were senior citizens. look, how relaxing is their life hur ;)

This creature caught my eyes as it swam towards me, bringing the flow with it.. the clear water reflects it's beauty.. the swan !

We rent a small boat, 28 pounds for an hour.. and drove ourself out to the lake.. 'brroooombrrroooommmm' the boat manage to move only 50km/hr speed *phew* Til the mid lake, while enjoying the scene and wind blowing to my face, the engine shut down suddenly !

"Aaaww, What happen !!!"

..and the boat floating, complete unbalance. I went panic and in real worried that I would go drowsy and faint - seasick! [which I had a bad experience before when i was a child] I wave hard, hoping somebody could see us ! *felt so tiny* hee.. A boat saw us, they thought we were waving for fun. *ugh* No!! Come here ! We need help ! We wave them to come !

Finally, they came ! *relief* phoned up and seek for rescue team ! haha.. sounds so dramatic ! The rescue boat towed our boat back and get full refund back! *yey* ;p

.......................................................................................

Threlkeld Quarry & Mining Museum. Oh ! how can I forget this museum ! The Old ticket man thought I'm a kid ! *urh*

T.man : There's 2 types o'ticket. 5 pounds for the mine adit tour, and 3 pounds for the museum tour.

Isaact : So, how much we have to pay in total ?

T.man : Well, 5 pounds for adults, 2.50 pounds for the child [POINTING at me], same goes to our museum tour, 3 pounds for adults, half price for the child [pointing at me AGAIN]!

Shu Hui and Houy See non-stop gigglin at the back.

*aaaww !!

After we paid, there're few other tourists and a old tour guide waiting for us ! The ticket man yelled to the tour guide "There's 4 more ppl for the tour ! Thhrreeeeee adults and Oonnnnnnneeeeee child !! *covered my face* everyone's looking at us, especially ME !! *sigh*

3 Adults and 1 Child [that's me!] ;(

The Old mining tour guide

Old Edinburgh

2007-05-08T14:20:00.000+01:00

Day 4 :
Been spending 2 days in Edinburgh, The Capital of Scotland... Ooh, Edinburgh is way cool !! The Old Town and New Town.

the stunning Edinburgh Castle

Old town - 1)really "old" 2)It has preserved its medival plan and many Reformation-era buildings (lurve the building) 3)One end is closed by the castle and the main artery, the Royal Mile, actually made up of four distinct streets named Castlehill, the Lawnmarket, the High Street and the Canongate.

Edinburgh Old Town

The Royal Mile

What kind of 'Smart' are you?

2007-03-20T01:44:00.000Z

All-Around Smart

You are all-around smart. Essentially, that means that you are a good combination of your own knowledge and experience, along with having learned through instruction - and you are equally as good with theoretical things as you are with real-world, applied things. You have a well-rounded brain.

烟点着了

风把我卷入它怀抱好冷

叶枯了随着风的旋律一片片飘下

树枝复杂仿佛失去了陪伴在挣扎似

树空荡荡依然很坚强

云沉重不舍

太阳隐藏依然散发它的光

我角落旁寂静

另一边是否已进入黑夜

回忆想念思念

闷不开心

瞬间失去自我失去方向

忘了任性忘了固执忘了一切

脑袋虽空但烦躁

好想狂奔好想呼唤好想流浪

烟熄了

Snowflakes

2007-02-09T18:41:00.000Z

It's snowing !!

2007-01-24T11:16:00.000Z

outside the corridor...

As I awake
Breathing in a new day;
I look out from the window
"It's snowing!!" I yelled in joy...
Swing the door opened with a big smile,
I pick up a drop of icy soft snow from my doorstep
Slowly, it melt in my palm
What a beautiful day..
I lift up my face towards the sky,
Tiny snowflakes spill from the heaven's hand
falling like little white feathers
gently drop on my cheek
Graceful beauty raining down
Giving magic to the lifeless ground,
Each snowflake like a falling star
Till earth is dressed in a robe of white
