So...I almost couldn't wake up this morning because I was out during midnight and only reached home at almost 6am! Ivan and I went over to Seri Kembangan to have a final meet up with Ken, who's leaving for Shanghai in 6 days :( But thanks to my cousin Jess who called me up all the way from Melbourne this morning. If it's not because of her phone call I would've slept till noon! Last night, we

In case you don't already know, I am going back to KK again tomorrow! This time around, is to celebrate Chinese New Year since the college will be closed for a week. I kinda wish I can celebrate CNY in Tawau this year because it has been way to long since I celebrated a real CNY...you know with family reunion, lion dance and all. But it's alright...being in KK is already good enough :) I am also

First and foremost, I just want to take this opportunity to apologise for my sort of 'inappropriate' behaviour while watching a concert. I KNOW that I am like a totally different person everytime I'm in a concert because I scream, I jump and, dance...like one insane person. So if you find my behaviour  totally inappropriate, I am truly sorry hehehe. But the thing about going to a concert is,

I might not know much about football or Manchester United (because I only started to become a fan of this club in college) BUT I do know who Gary Neville is :) In case you have no idea who he is, well he's a Manchester United player who played alongside with David Beckham, Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes and Nicky Butt back in the days. Just like Giggs, he was a loyal one-club footballer meaning he

(Music: Cousins by Vampire Weekend) New Year's Eve 2011 was celebrated at another cousin's house next door and it was indeed good and fun! Me, Jay, Arnold and Aaron arrived there around 8 so that we were able to catch the BPL match between Man Utd vs Blackburn. It was also my very first time watching a football match on HD. I was in awe that I kept saying how clear the view was heh.

*SPOILER ALERT* (via) HAPPY NEW YEAR! Sorry, I'm a little late on the wishing part heh. I was savouring my days in KK hence the reason why I didn't do much update here. I am now back in the Peninsula! It's back to workrbut my classes will only start next week :) Anyway, I know it's already a new year but if you haven't watched New Year's Eve yet, GO watch it!

Today, we will finally bid adieu to the year 2011. How is it that the year 2011 has passed by so friggin' fast? I absolutely have no idea. Looking through this year, it has been quite a fulfilling year to me. I would say it was a pretty calm with not so much chaos year for me too. The ups and downs in life are always inevitable...it's something that we go through every day but nevertheless, this

I was out doing some shopping errands today to prepare for our steamboat feast tonight, and it's been a while since I saw a clear blue sky in KK. The cloud formation was beautiful as well but then it didn't really last long because once I was done running errands, the sky turned gloomy and by mid-afternoon, the rain decided to fall...just like every other day. But that short moment, just

Like I've mentioned, this year's Christmas was a quiet one for my family and also my cousins but to be honest, I don't really mind at all. Had brunch with the cousins on Christmas Day at this Kedai Kopi in Donggongon called Sin Hin where everybody seems to love drinking kopi sejuk there, including yours truly. The little girls, Ophelia and Odessa LOVES playing with their foods and from time to

Yes, my girlfriends are awesome! This was what greeted me when I reached Terminal 2 airport yesterday :) Good to be back! Anyway, it's already Christmas Eve today and I'm pretty sure everyone are excited for Christmas tomorrow. I forsee a quiet Christmas this year since 3 of my cousins are not coming back to celebrate so this year's Christmas will be kinda incomplete :( I haven't been doing

Another instagram photo update :) The last photo was taken on Sunday when I attended one of my good friend Raden's wedding luncheon. I've got few more photos during the wedding which I hope I'll be able to post it soon. Just a little update on life...I am still busy at work! I am currently involved in this holiday art camp since yesterday and today I had a back to back t-shirt printing workshop

I am finally 27 today! Truth to be told, being at this age scares the bejesus out of me...okay, not really but it kinda does. Reason being because being 27 reminds me that I have left high school for 10 friggin' years! And looking back through the 10 years after high school...I haven't been achieving THAT much yet. Being at this age also reminds me that in 3 years time I will hit the big 3-0 and

Penang+wedding+college mates. That was what happened two weekends ago. It's good to be able to visit Penang again after haven't been there for a while. This time around it is to attend a wedding and not for work purpose, which of course was way better! Those days where I had to fly off to Penang every single week was crazy tiring! Anyway, I haven't seen some of my college mates in a VERY long

I am finally off the hook from working overtime! Last week has been really hectic, having to rush on a deadline and at the same time getting some family lovin' with the cousins. Indeed it has been a REALLY tiring week but it's all good! Not gonna complain much about it as long as I've done my part, then I'm A-OK. At least now I can find some time to blog, read, paint and finish few more things

There are times when people or even your own friends will say something  that might make you feel shocked or surprised...you know like you were 'so taken aback' (LOL!) by what he or she said. You don't seem to know what to respond because you were pretty much speechless or you might also find it really funny. I've experienced this last night and I'm still VERY speechless about it haha.

It's finally December! Of course you should already know that December is obviously my favourite month. Looking forward for celebrations and going back home soon! But right at this very moment, I am extremely busy rushing off to meet my deadline. This teaching kit that I am currently working on needs to be done by this coming Tuesday and I've just completed 70% of it. Plus, final submission

Today is Thanksgiving Day! Well, not that we really celebrate here but it would be nice if we can...with turkey and all. That'll be nice! But let's not forget to always be thankful for everything that we have, no matter how small or big those things are. Also always be thankful for your family and friends, I know sometimes they can piss you off but your very own family and your "true" friends

As you can see the proof above, I've been trying my best to finish the lecture kits that I was assigned to do before the deadline and also before the Penang branch people comes over to get it.

I am soooo going...well, just crossing my fingers that I am able to go on Jan 13, 2012. I'm excited and speaking of this band, I really should get their album soon!

‟We don't need a healthy body to go to heaven, but we do need a healthy soul”—Fr. Simon  Something that caught my attention during Sunday mass today. Hope you guys had a wonderful weekend. Mine was....just 'meh'. Been staying at home A LOT! I don't really know if it's a good thing or not. Kinda makes me a total anti-social...oh well. Another busy week ahead!

You know what, I realize that sometimes I tend to throw a fit over little things which basically, is not entirely a big deal to start with. I guess maybe I just wanted people's attention because I tend to feel that I care to much about the people I love and yet, I don't really seem to feel that they cared enough about me. I know, it's such a childish act but you know...sometimes I just do it

Today's edition of Only in Beijing is all about the streets! Well, didn't managed to capture a lot of photos but here are some of the best ones that I can share. We did not took the direct flight to Beijing actually. We landed in another city called Tianjin and took a coach bus to Beijing. The journey was about 1 and a half hours long. It's really close to winter so basically both cities,

When in Beijing, you got to visit the Great Wall  because it is the most iconic thing about China IMHO. The tour guide brought us to the easier route to climb but I guess my stamina wasn't up there yet...since I've been running on and of and haven't got the chance to exercise consistently. I was already running out of breath after 5 minutes of climbing! The stairs were really steep and out of

I just hope you won't get sick of it that fast haha... One of the places that we visited in Beijing was Temple Of Heaven.

Ohhh...I am diggin' this song and the video! Yes, Pumped Up Kicks has been played sooo many times on the radio, which is fine because I like that song too but I do think that people should listen to some of their other songs in their album because they are pretty good as Pumped Up Kicks. On the other note, check out Justin Bieber doing an Otis freestyle rap :) Yes I'm a belieber and I want his

Hello! I am finally back from my trip to Beijing! The journey home was long and tiring, plus the muscles on both my thighs and calves hurt like b***ch after climbing the Great Wall! Going down the stairs is a torture for me *sigh* As for now, I am back at work...thought of taking the day off since I can't exactly walk in my normal pace at the moment...but there's work that needs to be done so I

(image via here and here) I gotta say, this movie is definitely one of the must watch movie this year. I've read quite a number of good reviews about it even before I got the chance to watch it in the cinema and when I finally watched it with my colleague last week, I totally agree too. It was superb! Such a feel good movie with a nice mixture of action, drama and humour added in it. The

This year, I personally feel that I've been trying to be positive and keeping my head up in whatever circumstances or challenges that I need to face. Of course there are always problems from time to time be it with my own family, friends and work. But, I really do feel that I've been dealing with it much better than last year hence there is less crying and feeling overly depressed over things. I

I went to this Stamp & Postage fairwhich was held in Pyramid a week ago in conjunction with the Stamp Week, organised by Pos Malaysia. I have LOVED stamps since I was a teen and collect it from time to time. One of the reasons why I joined Postcrossing is to also receive interesting stamps from around the globe. Just last week, I've received two Pixar series stamps. Anyway at the exhibition,

Well...not exactly a movie buff but I did managed to watch several movies in the cinema this month itself. Fright Night was not so bad. Kinda like Colin Farrell as a vampire...a real badass one instead of the soft romantic one like Edward Cullen. Dream House was okay too but I guess there has been a few Hollywood movies that has the same kind of concept story. So it was just an okay movie for me

About two weeks ago, I managed to go and pay a visit to The Big Bad Wolf Book Sale, which I also dubbed as the Big Badass Book Sale! Over the years, I've been to several book sales here in KL and back home as well but it wasn't that great, well I guess The Times Warehouse Book Sale that I've been to in year 2004 was quite good. But, The Big Bad Wolf on the other hand...I'm just gonna say that it

Really sorry for being MIA for a while. Yes, I am still busy with work and classes but the internet has been getting on my nerves for the past few weeks. I know my internet at home is slower than a snail but I didn't expect it to be the same in the office! I really should consider subscribing to Unifi soon. Next month probably. Anyway, last week I went to watch Westlife live in concert at Bukit

A man with an awesome mind and a great innovator who had made apple a world wide known brand. I'm kinda a late apple convert. It was back in year 2006 when I fully utilised some of apple's product.

Yes, nothing new about this pffft and I'll probably still gonna be busy till the end of the semester! So many things to do with so little time *le sigh*Anyway as you all know, I attended my second Church camp about two weeks ago,

These are by far the most beautiful stamps I've ever received! That round one especially. Plus it was not even postmarked!  When you're feeling a little bit blue, draw something that you really like and it'll put a smile on your face!

(via) I think one of the things that everyone should learn is to forgive. But I don't think it'll ever be easy especially when you've experience great hurt and pain from the past hence forgiving someone probably won't occur in the back of our mind. I, too has experienced hurt and it goes way back when I was still in primary school and the experience continued till I left high school, went to

This morning, I almost couldn't wake up for work because the moment my alarm rang at 8am, I hit the off button instead of snooze. Fell back to sleep right after and woke up 45 minutes later pffft. I blame the morning cloudy weather too. Anyway, I am back! Church camp was good. I had fun and enjoyed most of the activities. I was actually feeling 'peaceful' when I reached home yesterday but then

There's a new show coming soon! On September 20th to be exact. It's called New Girl and I look forward to watch the pilot episode! Oh, Zooey Deschanel is the lead actress for this new series by the way. How can you not love Zooey right? I do hope it's gonna be a good one.

Hello my lovelies, I've been a little busy over the past few days with classes and stuffs to prepare and do. Currently drafting out this digital scrapbook tutorial in Photoshop for my Digital Tools class next week and today is the only day I could do it because I will be away for Church Camp starting tomorrow! Yes, I am quite worried because this time around, I will have to go to the Church Camp

Good meal comes with good coffee! Last Friday, we (my colleagues and I) had a superb lunch all thanks to IC, my colleague who not only can teach but can cook and bake amazing mouth-watering foods! Yes, I'm not kidding. We had garlic bread which was super yums! Anything garlic-y is always good for me. We also had pasta filled with tuna chunks, onions, celeries, mushrooms and carrots. Oh yes,

I think it's really easy to put a smile on my face, provided if you know how to :) and one of the things that would always put a smile on my face is when I get to receive unexpected little goodies and also receiving mails. Lots of mails! In the span of 5 days, my mailbox has been filled with letters and postcards from random people all thanks to joining Postcrossing which I'm back on being active

It has been years since I visited Tawau...the last time I was there, it was like almost four years ago when I attended a cousin's wedding. When my great grandmother and grandmother was still alive, I would

(via) I finally watched this movie last night and it's another one of those chick flick movies that I liked. I've always liked Kate Hudson acting in a romantic comedy like How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days and Bride Wars. Ginnifer Goodwin's acting was good too but I wonder why does she always play this kind of role...the pretty girl who can't seem to get the guy that she wants. Her role in this

When he first came in, I was quite skeptical and wondered whether if he could blend in with us since we're all, well Asian and speaking Mandarin or Cantonese in the office is a norm for us. But after 2 years having him as one of our colleagues, we're

Well, not that I have a holiday anyway but it's just nice to be away from the students for a while and not to have them annoy me by knocking on the yellow door hehe (I'm sitting near the door btw). During this break, I will still have work to do of course, nothing new on that heh. I was assigned to do some course restructuring and have to

When I thought about the band Incubus, somehow it always reminds me of my high school time circa 1999-2000, the time when I discovered about the band. I was a newbie as I only discovered Incubus when their 3rd studio album, Make Yourself was released. That was when they were a

Kept making me practicing my whistle so it sounds the same haha! Liked the whole 80s vibe in the video and also the little snippets of Mick Jagger here and there.

(via designspiration.net) So, it was Friendship Day yesterday! Everytime I thought about Friendship Day, it'll bring me back to year 2000-2001, when I was a Leo Club member in high school and we had this 'Chocolate Delivery' thing that we usually do in conjunction with Friendship Day. It was REALLY fun especially when your job is to write down messages hehe...those were the good times man.

I hardly go out and have a meal with my students because sometimes I feel kinda awkward plus I might not know what to talk about while hanging out with them. But then, once in a while it's actually nice to hang out

The other day when I was done doing a little bit of exercise and also a little bit of running (yes, it is finally time for me to do more exercise from now on to stay healthy and err...lose that weight haha), I sat on a swing and had a short quiet moment before I headed back home. It was right at this time when I had all these sudden flashbacks of me when I was a kid together with my family having

These are the photos that I managed to snap using my Superheadz Ultra Wide Lens camera. I need to finish the film roll so what better way to bring it to Urbanscapes right? Still wished I took more *nicer* photos but these will do at the moment. Thinking of getting different lomo films soon. Maybe the Red Scale one or Black & White one OR even better, a brand new lomo camera! Sardina maybe? I'll

PICTURE HEAVY POST AHEAD This is my second time attending Urbanscapes! The first Urbanscapes that I've attended was back in year 2008, in KLPac (read post here). I missed the last two because basically KLPac was pretty far from where I stay and travelling to Sentul with public transport on weekends might take me about an hour or more, so I missed out the last two Urbanscapes. I was so glad that

These days, I don't really have what you call a 'hip and happening' life after work and since I hardly go out for drinks on weeknights anymore, I've been spending more time at home. It's not exactly a bad thing actually because I like having 'me' time and do whatever things that I wanna do. So far, with me staying at home I've been watching this Korean drama on TV called Personal Taste and I've

Found this website called cinemagraphs.com that belongs to two visual artist Jamie Beck and Kevin Burg who comes from NYC. They were the ones who created those beautiful stuff up there. It's like a .gif format of a still photo which

Today is one of my bestie, Simone's birthday! I was thinking of making a stop motion video to greet her Happy Birthday but I didn't really had enough time to do so (actually it's just an excuse hahaha) which is why I can only create this simple gif animation for her. Yes, it's REALLY simple to create this. Even a kid can do so. It'll be more interesting if the Mr. Orange Owl's legs could wiggle

Just another filler post here today...Monday till Wednesday are always my busiest days at work. Morning classes for straight 3 days seems like a big challenge to me since I really hate waking up early. But I've been doing that (waking up early) for the past few months already and even during the weekends! But still, I felt like a big challenge to get ready in the morning and make it in time for

The colours, the typography, everything just looked lovely! If I were to choose, I would probably go for the green one (which is called Marathon) or the white one (Sea Pride) but then, any colours would be just fine! I went

The past two weeks has been a pretty good week for me despite being all tired from work and lack of proper sleep. My neck hurts sooooo bad right now, I really want to go and get a massage pronto! But I shouldn't be complaining about this because for the past two weeks, I got the chance to hang out with my cousins and getting some family love. Not easy for me to get family love here since I don't

Apart from all Michael Jackson's hit songs, I actually like some of his old tunes, those that were not released as a single like this one called Just Good Friends featuring the legendary Stevie Wonder. There is no denying that a lot of his songs can connect with our own emotions, that's how powerful his music were. Even his trademark 'Whoo!' can deliver such a huge impact to the world. His

Never thought I'll go this far to maintain a blog but it has been a great journey :D If you do read this blog of mine and has been/secretly following it, I just want to say thank you sooooo much.

In case you don't already know, I am a Green Lantern too! Hahahaha, okay such a lame thing to do right? Taking a photo with the cardboard and wishing the guy on my right was real pffft. Anyway, Green Lantern was alright I guess. I personally think it could be better and the fighting scene can be more awesome-er too. I would say I much prefer X-Men: First Class!  Like I've said before I do not

Sharing some photos taken when I was back for the late Abang Andrew's funeral. I think one of the nicest thing about staying in a kampung is, whenever there is a funeral or any events (eg. wedding or gathering), the neighbours will definitely come and help out with everything they can. Well, of course not every people in my neighbourhood are considered 'nice', there are still people who are just.

This actually took me a while to finally decide to write this post down. I guess I was just trying to figure out how or when exactly should I start but I told myself today that it should be now or never. In case you didn't know, I was back in Penampang two weeks ago not for a holiday but to attend a funeral of my late first cousin, Abang Andrew. It was on Wednesday, June 1st when Merl called me

Did a lil quick painting last night because it's just one of those days that I felt like wanting to do so. It's inspired by the pin up girl photo that I saw from pinterest. Just realised that the butt and the body are a little bit off. Dang it. I have forgotten the proper way of drawing human anatomy! Oh well... My cousin Mierah scored 4 movie passes to watch the premiere of The Green Lantern

source I liked Katy Perry's Teenage Dream album so far. The songs, although tend to be overplayed and commercialized, are still catchy and you always seem to have the urge to singalong with it. I also liked all the recent music videos that has been released, well except for E.T...don't really fancy those alien stuffs and the song wasn't really my favourite from her album either. But I LOVE

3 years ago, I watched Kung Fu Panda 1 with my brother when he was still staying in KL. Missing those days man...anyway, I absolutely LOVED the movie...it's one of my favourite 3D animated movies after Shrek, The Incredibles and Tangled. When I knew part two is coming out, I told myself that I must watch the second installment of the movie no matter what. Well, I got the chance to watch it last

Felt like it was 2009 all over again, except some new players were bought in and then some old players remained. When I found out that Man Utd was gonna face Barca again for the Champs League final, I somehow felt that it was

I love bags...all types of 'em tough I don't really own that much of it. Plus I don't even have a designer's bag as well...not that I really want one at the moment. But these Cambridge Stachels are so so nice and it totally made me wanna own one! The design, the variety of colours! Totally love it. I've been looking for a nice satchel for a while.

While in Indonesia, I got the chance to try out some nice foods over there. Some were just alright and then some were super yummeh! Especially the Sayur Lodeh that was cooked by the maid who was working for Simone's Aunt. Eggplant+long bean in coconut milk soup...what's not to love right? From what I've observed, Indonesians seem to like fry stuff. Most of the time, the dishes that you've

If only I had more free time, I would totally blog like everyday but this brand new semester, I've been busier than I've expected! Plus having a really slow internet connection at home makes me even lazier to update anything here especially when I needed to upload photos as well. So, my apologies! I promise

I had Design Fundamentals class back to back today and man...I am just so tired of talking non-stop! Having to repeat whatever things that I've talked about in the morning for my afternoon class was just tiring. It made me wanted to drink a gallon of water and a few cups of coffee too. Apparently, the students during my afternoon class were all...not so great in giving any responses *sigh* When

I do not know why everytime I have class on Mondays, it always ended up in a disaster...well sort of. It had happened to me so many times, I guess it's just my fate to have a 'disaster Monday' whenever the new semester starts. So yesterday's morning class was Visual Communication and for some odd reason, I was feeling extremely nervous about having to do my lecture. I mean it's not like I don't

So I might have to divide several entries about my trip to Indonesia because as much as I wanted to blog everyday, I've got other things to tackle down first like catching up all my current favourite TV shows and work. Okay, tackling work is on top of the list right now because the new semester has just started and I really need to sort everything out like my lecture slides, course outlines,

Hello! I am finally back and it's another brand new semester here in the college. I was checking my class timetable while I was still in Indonesia and saw that my Monday class is Visual Communication *again* -____- When I reached home yesterday, I decided to re-check my timetable and just found out that the Visual Communication class only starts next week!

Typing this post using my iPod is not exactly that convenient but hey, at least it's a good device for travelling no? My stay here so far has been pretty good.
