season of love

I know it's the same picture I posted in Facebook, hehe, I am pretty lazy. =)

给我，你 （们）的一封信

最近工作都不开心的。生病了，要请病假也得想了三番四次。 终于请了病假，在家里休息却感到愧疚。 最近干什么事都提不起劲的， 好无聊哦。 脑子里塞满了一堆ideas, 提起了笔却写不出心中的感受，也画不出想要表达的情绪，也说不出一个所以然究竟发生了什么事。 有时候我在想，如果我是那些小孩有多好，不喜欢就可闹别扭，生气了就随性的发泄情绪， 再不来就把自己躲在一个角落搞自闭。 可是回到现实生活中，我却不行； 就因为我是个成年人， 有责任感的成年人。我是一个不喜欢多做解释的人，也不喜欢对某些人做无聊的交代； 人家对我再多的误会，我都学会了一笑而过。随着年龄的成长，也学会了什么事情都好都要看开一点， 从那里跌倒就从那里爬起来，要相信明天会更好，一次的失败代表着又一次的学习。人往往就是嫌恶的，知道你满面笑容过得好好的，他那嫉妒的心就在想要怎样把你那一面面的笑容慢慢的撕下， 人就是那么的自私。还好，我知道也领悟这个道理，愈强要则强， 没什么事情是解决不了的， 再难的问题也有它解决的方式。 我可不是好胜，也不是野蛮， 更不是顽固。我只是知道，未来的日子会怎么样都归于我手中，我可以轻易且不责任的把它画下句点，我也可以毫无意识的过着每一天，但是我选择了快快乐乐的，也要尽我所能的创出一道彩虹来。 人有时候就需要那么多一点点的勇气，多一点点的爱，把自己的人生活得更精彩， 所以啊，从来不要对朋友吝舍的给与关怀，你可能会发现施比获更幸福。我自己呢就挺幸福的啦，子威都对我很好，很想把我的幸福与你分享， 不过话说回来啊，只有你一个人能左右自己的未来，要活得精彩还是遗憾， 就在于你的选择。

梁静茹- 给未来的自己

站在狂風的天臺一望無際
這一座孤獨的城市
在天空與高樓交接的盡頭
誰追尋空曠的自由

陽光覆滿這一刻寧靜的我
隔絕了喧囂和冷漠
川流不息的人遊蕩在街頭
誰能聽見誰的寂寞

找一個人惺惺相惜　找一顆心心心相印
在這個宇宙　我是獨一無二　沒人能取代

不管怎樣　怎樣都會受傷
傷了又怎樣　至少我很堅強　我很坦蕩

夜幕籠罩燦爛的一片燈海
多少人多少種無奈
在星光裏遺忘昨天的傷害
一覺醒來還有期待

我不放棄愛的勇氣　我不懷疑會有真心
我要握住　一個最美的夢　給未來的自己

一天一天　一天推翻一天　堅持的信仰
我會記住自己今天的模樣

有一個人惺惺相惜　有一顆心心心相印
拋開過去　我想認真去追尋　未來的自己
不管怎樣　怎樣都會受傷
傷了又怎樣　至少我很堅強　我很坦蕩

我不放棄愛的勇氣　我不懷疑會有真心
我要握住　一個最美的夢　給未來的自己
不管怎樣　怎樣都會受傷
傷了又怎樣　至少我很堅強　我很坦蕩

未來的你　會懂我的瘋狂

i don't know.

i don't know how should i begin, nor how should i end it.
i don't know what should i keep, nor what should i throw away.

a broken american dream

not really.

i made the choice, didn't i?

sup

sup. i m at work again. another overnight shift. life is boring lately, nothing much happening else from drowning myself in work. if only there's 48 hours a day. i need massage. more times for myself. to do a little bit drawing or doodling. maybe a little bit cooking. to do laundry. to walk around downtown. to take more pictures. to do a little bit catch up with friends. more pak-thor-ing. practice japanese. more drama. to sing k. to play with my phone. more blogging. to clean up my room.

my room is so messy that i don't even want to live in there anymore.

welcome to obamanation

was working at girl's program today (teenager girls) and we have been sticking our butt on the couch and glueing our eyes on CNN for the latest election result. the girls were all so anxious omg. they were like having obama camp in the program. it was especially nervous for all of us when his electoral votes were sticking at the number of 207, it then suddenly jumped to 293 votes and he was announced to be the next president.. the girls were like jumping and shouting for joy and i definitely saw some tears at the corner of the eyes.

most of the american citizens they were so into politics ok, i mean at least the people around me. this colleague of mine was asking me about who do i support yesterday. i was like obama. she asked why so. i was like i don't know i just think that mccain is too old lol. then she was like "to me, family value is very important...." then she kept explaining to me she will vote on whoever that have stronger family value. then i was like i wonder who has a better view on love and relationship. at that moment i can feel that she must be thinking its useless talking to me... =p

anyway, my point is, america is ready for a change, and i wonder when it's malaysia's turn?

oh ya. obama delivered a very powerful speech too. =p

happy belated halloween?

or, maybe merry christmas?

i can't decide who sing the better "the christmas song", michael buble or christina aguilera or josh groban or jesssica simpson. hmm.

today we brought kids out for trick or treats. everyone looked so cute can. and i dressed up like a computer nerd. it was a successful one. first, randall saw me online he was like "you are super nerdy". then i went to school to get this girl outta school, when she saw me across from the classroom her expression was priceless. then for the entire day i kept hearing kids saying i am like a nerd. haha. my $9.90 was kinda worth it.

been so busy lately. i hardly had any me-time. my work place is like my first home. T_T my schedule not even the same as that tan airene anymore. she is leaving soon. T_T so soon. i am leaving with her. i want to. i want to i want to. go home. probably not. probably manchester. hmm. edwin is going to rome, venice, and milan. argh. i swear to myself no matter how he tempted me i shall not be influenced. next year dee i will be there. (;

oh i learned to knit lately. my first masterpiece is a scarf. a lovely scarf for someone special. pictures later, after he received it. heheheeeeeee. knitting is so addictive though. and it's not cheap at all. for the price that i paid for all the yarns, i can probably get a lot of ready made scarfs from the store. oh well, it's the thought that counts right. (:

what else what else... oh ya... my life in the states have been interesting. i am glad that i have the chance to deal with 911, the fire department, the emt, the hospital, the police officer... what else my job gonna offer me. the doctors in children hospital are so cute. the firemen that came today look hot. aw, i am sick. people make me sick. lol

you know ar, the thing that i hate to hear from my friend the most is..."eh do you want to join us for tonight gathering? me, lik, suat and ted." knowing that i can't be there for sure, don't tell me la........ T_T but honestly, i miss you guys a lot arrrrrr. jamie la, weiyong la, andrew la, weejian la, suat la, ted la, lik la, rishant la, juliana la, i miss the gang. i wonder things will still be the same 10 years down the road. but one thing i know for sure, thing will not be the same when one gets a gf or a bf. you know like jamie, hclf one. i am not that good either. aih.

i am actually getting paid for blogging. because technically i am working right now. it's 4:42am. i am so freaking tired. i am done with all my tasks. i am just waiting for the clock to strike 7am and i can leave. go back to my lovely bed before i have to work again on the same day at 4pm..until the next morning 7am. lol. it sounds tiring. but truthfully, i always feel so tired at the end of the shift, but when i got home and read all the messages that edwin left for me even it was just one line, i felt so energetic right after. and i end up staying up instead of going to bed. T_T

and honestly, i think i have sleeping problem. you know like disturbed sleep. lots of dreams and got woken up easily. a lot of friends around me rite they are actually consuming sleeping pills to go to sleep, some of them even take shots to go to bed. i hope i will not end up going to pharmacy to get sleeping pill. it's kinda stressful sometimes when you know you gotta work certain hours the next day but you just cant seem to go to bed no matter how tired you are. it's very very frustrating.

it's only 4:50am right now. 2 hours and 10 more minutes to go. probably i should do my monthly report, but i am lazy.

you know... my mom always tell me that she feels as if she has already lost a daughter, she says i dont miss home nor care for them. it's pretty sad when i know that. well you know don't say a person never miss you or care for you, you never know how much a person is actually missing you or even care for you, it probably just never been expressed you know.... i learned that from the past relationship. lol... but this is not something to laugh about... =(

mommy if you are reading this...i really miss home...sometimes how i wished that you will just ask me to go home...

it's 5am. 2 more hours. i can do it.

5:36am. i hate myself for not making time for myself just to go walk around and take pictures of autumn leaves.

24th SurpriSe biRthDay PaRty!

so ariney and noriko worked together-gather to organize a surprise birthday party for me. i've got so touched ok although it was not expressed on my face. lol. aireny even created a private event in the facebook and invited my friend which i had no idea at all. T_T

i kinda know there's a surprise for me on my birthday but i didn't know it was that extreme T_T. i was really really really happy can. their mission was to get me drunk as their mission accomplished T_T. it's a bad idea to show your friends that you are a high tolerance drinker on normal days, because some day they wll revenge one T_T.

so they got me to puke a few times, and until today i denied that i was drunk. because i remmbered what i did on that night. i remembered dialing edwin's number and aireney talked to him and i also rememembered telling them i wanted to go for dimsum the next day T_T.

to cut the story short, lets look at the pictures!

i think the balloons look lovely.

everytime i was given a new drink, i had to check it out what was that first.

too happy i think.

pressie from eric!

notice the different drink everytime.

these are the reasons..... T_T

i totally ruined the cake. lesson learned, never asked an almost drunk birthday girl to cut the cake.

a new drink.

hmmm..yummy drink.

hence, a happy girl.

i got so touched after reading all the messages in the socks?

ming turned 24!!

what can i say? i am the luckiest girl ever! having all the lovely people around me, i am feeling so so so blessed. thank you people for making my 24th so special. thank you Dee for saying the warmest words to me, thank you roomie for planning the birthday party, thank you noriko for helping airene in the surprise birthday party...

i definitely have more people to thank to.

thank you all for the phone calls and messages, from back home malaysia, from down under, from Uk, from all over the states, from hong kong, etc etc. although you guys like woke me up in the middle of the night just to wish me happy birthday, i was really really happy. thank you all for the different versions of birthday song, no matter you sang it to me through phone, or web cam, or in person, it definitely hit my heart.

talking about the birthday song, i have to thank the Bemidji-gang!!! so yesterday i received a call from an unknown number. i picked up the phone and what i heard is a lot of people introducing themselves, probably like more than 10 of them, telling me that they were from fm90 or something. after that, they started to say all the wishes individually and ended up the phone call with a birthday song. i didn't even have chance to say thank you and they hung up the phone. so i re-dial to the same number, and again they were telling me they were from fm90 and started to sing birthday song again, and then hung up. i was like wth!! but it was really really creative and meaningful to me!! CHLOE TAN, if you are reading this, thank you so so so so much, i so know that you are the leader of this bemidji gang.

ok back to the thank you list.

see how lucky i am! and they are all in pink or purple, so ngam!

my first pressie from that sweetie roomie (for once i dont call her bitch). it was an early birthday surprise, like 2 weeks ago.

all the lovely messages from you guys. i was really touched after reading through. i didn't know all my colleagues like to work with me so much. they probably just wanted to make me happy on my birthday. lol. anyway, one of the messages saying that i am getting old!!! don't let me find out who is that!!

the birthday cards and gift cards. so so blessed la!

thank you for all the messages that you guys left me in msn.

thank you all for the sweet messages that make my day!

thank you all for the gifts that you sent me through facebook. lol

thank you all for the text messages!!!

thank you all for the pressies!!

thank you for organizing this surprise party!!
