Lack of Motivation :(

Recently, I found out that there is a bug inside me. It’s called LAZY BUG!!!

Eventhough I’m working, I still have to complete my ACCA course. Advanced in Financial Management is a very tough subject. It involves calculations and theories. There are many types of formulae which need MEMORIZING. In order to pass this subject, it required lots of practice in writing skills.

Since I’m working, I don’t feel like studying. Every night after working, I have to open my book. I felt sleepy and tired. Thus, I didn’t perform well for my Tax paper last sitting. Really disappointed!! T.T No longer have the motivation…. Now i understand why some people always resit the papers for a few times!!

In order to pass the subjects, I have to wake myself. TWO SUBJECTS TO GO only.. PASS ONCE and FINISH IT FOREVER.

Kill the bug for me pls!!!! H3LP M3!!!

Ang Pows

Chap Goh Mei just passed a few days ago. My bro and I always conducted “opening ceremony” ang pows. Therefore, we have done it yesterday. Haha..

When my brother started to check out each of the ang pows, he was shock and show me the packet of ang pow.


I asked him, “Is it an empty ang pow?”

He replied, “No, che. It contained big notes.” I checked the same packet of ang pows but found none. Both of us started wondering who the person is so generous. However, I couldn’t recall anything.

My mum came to interrupt our discussion and opened another ang pow which has a piece of paper. Another surprises to my bro, “Why there is 4 ekor inside this ang pow?”

After hearing what he mentioned out, I realized that the two ang pows are actually belong to me as it was my lucky draw from my company. Haha... My ang pow mixed up with my brother’s ang pow.

I was laughing non-stop. It was my mistake. Luckily, my bro was honest enough. If not, I would not realize it.

It's better to give than to receive

Most of us know how to receive things from people (Taker) but seldom give things (Giver). Is it good? Let me share this story.

A young man, a student in one of the universities, was one day taking a walk with a Professor, who was commonly called the student's friend, from his kindness to those who waited on his instructions.

As they went along, they saw lying in the path a pair of old shoes, which they supposed to belong to a poor man who was employed in a field close by, and who had nearly finished his day's work.

The student turned to the professor, saying: "Let us play the man a trick: we will hide his shoes, and conceal ourselves behind those bushes, and wait to see his perplexity when he cannot find them."

"My young friend," answered the professor, "we should never amuse ourselves at the expense of the poor. But you are rich, and may give yourself a much greater pleasure by means of this poor man. Put a coin in each shoe, and then we will hide ourselves and watch how this affects him."

The student did so and they both placed themselves behind the bushes close by. The poor man soon finished his work, and came across the field to the path where he had left his coat and shoes.

While putting on his coat he slipped his foot into one of his shoes, but feeling something hard, he stooped down to feel what it was, and found the coin. Astonishment and wonder were seen upon his countenance. He gazed upon the coin, turned it around, and looked at it again and again.


He then looked around him on all sides, but no person was to be seen.

He now put the money into his pocket, and proceeded to put on the other shoe; but his surprise was doubled on finding the other coin.

His feelings overcame him; he fell upon his knees, looked up to heaven and uttered aloud a fervent thanksgiving in which he spoke of his wife who was sick and helpless, and his children without bread, whom this timely bounty, from some unknown hand, would save from perishing.

The student stood there deeply affected, and his eyes filled with tears. "Now," said the professor, are you not much better pleased than if you had played your intended trick?"

The youth replied, "You have taught me a lesson which I will never forget. I feel now the truth of these words, which I never understood before: "It's better to give than to receive."

My Dad

Yesterday, I have an argument with my Dad.
Actually, I didn't want to quarrel with him.
I was moody because my friend "fly kite" me.
I wish to release all the heat so that's why I was out of control over my feelings.
Anyway, I shouldn't blame anyone else as this was my fault.

After an overnight, I was recovered.
Realising that I was a rebellious child.
Using the "strong" words hurt my dad's feeling.
Feeling sorry for what my act towards him.

Through all these years, I finally realised....
I'm lucky to have my Dad as compared to some of my friends.

My dad
...is like a best friend who lend me a hand.
...is an advisor when I was in dilemma situation.
...is my driving tutor who improve my driving skill.
...is English teacher to correct my grammar.
...is a joker as his jokes make us laugh till cry.
...is a storyteller as he likes to share his memories with us.
...is a technician when our house need some repairs.
...is brave to fight over human's rights.
...would not easily give up person & support me when I wish to give up.
...etc...etc...

I'm
Happy & Thankful to have him in this family.
I wish to say :-
"I'm SORRY, Dad for I hurt you"
"You've been such a FANTASTIC & WONDERFUL DAD."
"With you around, my house is full of Joy & Happiness."
"My bro & I LOVE you VERY MUCH."
"Thanks for everything you did to us." =)

Zhang Jia Jie Trip (张家界)

After spending hours, finally, I could finish writing out about this trip. Ok.. Here the story goes..
First Day, 8th December 2009
My company has been organized a trip to Zhang Jia Jie (张家界), China for staying 5 nights. I was full of excitement because everything seems to be new to me. A lot of questions popping out of my mind as travelling to a foreign country was appeared to be too unbelievable. I wish to share my wonderful journey with you here.
On the first day, CC, WN, Angela and I took ERL at 6.30pm to KLIA and reached within 30 minutes. Mr Lim's family, Hong and Hong's wife arrived earlier than us. Ms Chiew was our local tour guide. Checking in our luggage was the first thing to do at the airport counter. After that, we went through the custom. Liquid form, sharp things and lighter are not allowed for hand baggage.


(Four pretty girls at ERL)

We had a quick breakfast at Starbucks Coffee as we heard the announcement that our plane is ready to fly off. Wohoho.. From there onwards, we were running and taking a train to the destination of aeroplane. Almost all the seats were filled up except us. Around 8.45am, China Southern Airline flew off from KLIA.
Angela, Mr Lim's mother and I were sitting together. We were given a choice either fish mee or curry chicken rice. I chose curry chicken. There were fruits, mango pudding and bread. Flying to 广洲 (Guang Zhou) would take 3 hours. During the flight, you could watch mandarin movie, listen music or take a nap.

When we reached广洲飞机场, it was 12.15pm. Again, we went through the custom. A lot of people was lining up and some of them were Korean, Thais and Japanese. After that, our luggage needed to transfer to Zhang Jia Jie airport. We stucked in the airport for TWO hours. Gosh...

Since our next flight was at 8.05pm, 广洲 tour guide brought us to try their specialty food at 名麓美食such as roasted duck, sliced steamed chicken, etc. The tour guide brought us to their 广洲市场. The atmosphere looked the same as our Petaling Street, KL which was crowded and merrier. This place is suitable for those who are expert in bargaining the price. For instance, a bag is cost at RMB100 (RM50), you could negotiate till RMB30. I bought a nice long sleeve for RMB25.

By the time we reached Zhang Jia Jie Airport, it was 10.30pm.

莱 顿大酒店 was our first night. Angela and I shared a room. Angela was not happy when she knew that we had a corner room. She was quite superstitious and complained to Ms Chiew to change the room. With all Ms Chiew's persuasion, Angela accepted the room finally. She switched on the television for the whole night in order to calm herself down. For me, I didn't have a good sleep as I had a nose block in the middle of the night.
