What time of the day are you?

You Are Sunrise

You enjoy living a slow, fulfilling life. You enjoy living every moment, no matter how ordinary.You are a person of reflection and meditation. You start and end every day by looking inward. Caring and giving, you enjoy making people happy. You're often cooking for friends or buying them gifts.All in all, you know how to love life for what it is - not for how it should be.

What Time Of Day Are You?

My friends.... I miss you guys

2 days ago, suddenly, my MSN Messenger popped up. Hey! Somebody far, somebody whom the last time I met in December, was online. At last. All this while I saw his MSN was on, and I tried to send him a message. Unfortunately no response. It seems that his is sharing his PC with his uncle - so that explains the coldness.
Peter, was my classmate when I was in the UK last year. Frankly, he was not that friendly to me during our 1st week in class. He was more of enjoying entertaining my other sexy classmates from Brazil and Spain (yeah....Elena, Elaine and Aline....you guys are beautiful and sexy). Then, I couldn't remember what makes him changed - he was being nice to me 2nd week onwards. Very, very nice. He didn't even allow me to sit elsewhere in the classroom other than beside him.


During the free time, he kept asking me questions. Questions about malaysia, religion, culture and others. He was shocked to find out that I was married (at that time) and it has been for the past 8 years. Peter and I have always had different views. He strongly believes that love and marriage should not be on papers. It should come from agreement and understanding. He also asked me his favourite question over and over again, " Even if your favourite food is spaghetti, how can you eat the same spaghetti for everyday for 8 years?" Well, I told him, in Malaysia, we do not only eat spaghetti with bolognaise or carbonara sauce, we also fry it, eat it with curry sauce and other ways.
I remembered, he said he always look at us, muslim ladies differently.But , having me as his classmate, changed his views. He respect me as I am. Few weeks back, on 1st April, was our 1 year anniversary having each other as friends. Not only Peter - Aline, Elena, Elaine, Michal, Rueben, Magda, Victor, Alexandra, Francoise, Gabby - I miss you guys so much. Last year, in April, I was in Nottingham with you guys. Enjoying every moment of it. Enjoying the weather. Enjoying the company.Enjoying the parties (I know , everytime I had to leave early - and my excuse was I have a curfew to follow...hehehe) Not forgetting our teachers - the sweet Lara, the loveable Carol, the funny Adrian....who else....ohh...I can't remember your name but I remembered calling you "Richard Gere".I had the best moment, best experience in my life. 3 months only - but its being played again and again in my head - I wish I had recorded some videos of you guys.Well, I do have some photos, though.

I don't know when I'm meeting you guys again. I remembered - that was what I said to all my friends in July last year - my last days in Notts. But when my company sent me for a training in London in December last year -miraculously, there I was again, in Notts, trying to refresh all my memories.
The best part, I called Elena a few days after I arrived in London - and the conversation went like this:

Myself: Hello, is this Elena?
Elena: Yesss, it is
Myself: Guess, who this is?
Elena: I don't know.
Myself: Just give it a try
Elena: I think I know who. But its just not logic.
Myself: What do you mean not logic? Come on. Just guess.
Elena: No way. If its my friend, she's not here anymore.
Myself: Just guess!! (raising my voice but trying to hold myself from laughing)
Elena: You sound like Safina from malaysia. but she's gone back home in July.And its too far for her to return to the UK.
Myself: Hahahaha...yes its me!!!! (laughing out loud) Its me Elena!!
She shouted at the top of her voice. Still couldn't believe that I was calling her from London.

And...we can just plan and tell others what we think might happen but miracle do happens sometimes.


p/s: Elena - am looking forward to visit you again...you know when..... and Michal..when are you going to open the ASIAN Restaurant in your country as per your dream? Magda.....where have you been?

Malaysian vs non malaysian

3 meeting in 2 weeks. Is that fast? I don't know.I was out of this 'dating' game the past 10 years. Well, I personally call it as meetings but the other party says its a date. Hmm...2 different people from 2 different countries, different culture, beliefs, values and others. Not only that , due to all these differences - during the first 2 meetings, we kept having arguments. Hmm...the arguments sometimes continues through sms and phone conversations. I just don't understand why a person would stand arguing with me and still insist of meeting me for the 3rd time. I felt at times I was really rude. But I just can't stand people who does not understand and kept pushing me to accept what he thinks is right for me. Argghh...ppplease. I am not 20 years old anymore to just accept ideas.

Sometimes, I wonder. After all these arguments and disagreement on a lot of things(almost everything actually), I still enjoy talking to him. Enjoy the topics we share.Another thing, its kind of funny.... when you go out with one of your regular male friends and sip coffee at one of the cafe, nobody asked anything. But yesterday, when I was with him, the boy who was manning the pastry counter approached me and asked:

Boy: kak....boleh tanya?

Me: ya..kenapa dik?

Boy: kawan akak tu dari negara mana?

Me: South Africa....

Boy: oohh...belajar lagi ke?

Me: Taklah..dah kerja

Boy: oohh...boyfriend akak ye....

Me: Speechless.........(I was actually laughing at the boy and his remark.)


Question: Why , when I walk or sit down and have coffee with a Malaysian , nobody said anything. I don't understand.


At last, yesterday,during our 3rd meeting, we did not have any arguments or disagreements at all. I tried to bring up one - but failed. He totally agreed on whatever I said! Hmm....I wonder why...

I'm a genius!........

Last Saturday, myself and 3 other friends entered a Treasure Hunt contest. This is actually to support our beloved ex-school Golden Jubilee Celebration. This was my second time entering a treasure hunt. Well, the 1st one was not bad considering that my team got top 10 placing. So, at 10am, after a short briefing , off we go.Flagged off at National Science Centre and so did the end of it.

Myself and another guy, Dr A, have had experience with treasure hunt. The other 2 , H and Dr N was their 1st experience and they were the driver and the navigator for our team. For anybody out there who has experienced it - just imagine H and Dr N, non-stop having arguments during the first leg of the race. At the back seat, myself especially, was as if trying to pour more gasoline on the fire - purposely making the driver and navigator having non-stop disagreements.it was really funny to see them figuring out where to go and not to get lost while reading the tulips given.

Actually , the most iritating part of it was, somebody kept saying "Aahh...I'm a genius !" when he thinks he managed to answer some of the questions/clues. Can't imagine to bear with this statement throughout the hunt. At frirst I thought this person was not so bad at all. Managed to solve quite a number of clues for a first timer.(eventhough I hate to hear him say that) .

We were late. We only managed to finish 10 mnts behind time which caused us deduction of 2 points. Then it comes the question & answer checking session:

1st question - wrong.

2nd question - wrong again.

3rd question - what is this, wrong? No way!

4th question - how can it be?

5th question -haah! at last, one correct , yay!!

And we noticed the group at the other table (the season hunters) only had 1 wrong answer compared to us!!.argghh......I don't know about the rest, but I felt so, not knowledgeable (another word for stupid..hehehe)

The winner got 124points. I think we only managed to get 20 points....heheh....what a big difference.


And then we noticed, this guy who claim " I'm a genius!" was sitting down quietly at one corner, folding his arms without making any sounds at all! Hah! You call that genius?? I guess all his answers were wrong. hahahaha........its ok...your first experience in treasure hunting, right?

I miss these guys sooooo much!

Last night, out of the blue, I miss these guys so much. I got to go back and watch the DVDs again....for the ....ohh ..I can't remember how many times already. Will there be a continuation in the future?

Infatuation??

Some definition:

1. A foolish, unreasoning, or extravagant passion or attraction.

2. An object of extravagant, short-lived passion

3. Foolish and usually extragavant passion or love or admiration


Me? Having this now? I hate to admit it but......he did make my heart melt.Not much....maybe 20%.....nah...I think its more than that. No!This is too fast. Well, like the definition above....this is just a foolish, unreasoning, and hopefully short-live passion.

Like Esty said - "kite ni pantang kena manjeeeeeee"

My numerology reading .....

Born on the 3rd.

Being born on the 3rd day of the month is likely to add a good bit of vitality to your life. The energy of 3 allows you bounce back rapidly from setbacks, physical or mental. There is a restlessness in your nature, but you seem to be able to portray an easygoing, sometimes "couldn't care less" attitude. You have a natural ability to express yourself in public, and you always make a very good impression. Good with words, you excel in writing, speaking, and possibly singing. You are energetic and always a good conversationalist. You have a keen imagination, but you tend to scatter your energies and become involved with too may superficial matters. You are affectionate and loving, but sometimes too sensitive. You are subject to rapid ups and downs.

Personal Year 5. . . . Feeling Loose and Free

This is a number 5 year, a year of major change in your life. Horizons are expanded and growth is less impeded. You are likely to make a number of new friends this year as social activities are expanded. This is a year that has brought/will bring excitement and adventure and a good deal more freedom than you have experienced in recent years. This is a time for feeling loose and free; for moving away from old routines in a constructive way. If you became bogged down during this past year, now is the time to seek out new directions.
The problem with a personal year 5 is the tendency to scatter energies in all directions. Your ability to do detail work is limited now and it will make you feel very confined. In all, this a free-wheeling year that is liable to bring major changes to your life; your career, your family situation, your residence.


Not that I believe this but....once I met a friend's friend whom just asked for my birth date and managed to tell my whole life story to me wihout even knowing my name! He made my jaw dropped.

A sweet email from a new friend.

In his email, somebody gave me this advise:

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will.
When the road you are grudging seems all uphill.
When the funds are low and the debts are high.
And you want to smile but you have to sight.
When care is pressing you down rest a bit, if you must, but don't quit.

And he also wrote this which motivates me:

Life is an opportunity, benefit from it.
Life is a beauty, admire it.
Life is a dream, realize it.
Life is a challenge, meet it.
Life is a duty, complete it.
Life is a game, play it.
Life is a promise, fulfil it.
Life is sorrow, overcome it.
Life is a song, sing it.
Life is a struggle, accept it.
Life is a tragedy, confront it.
Life is an adventure, dare it.
Life is luck, make it.
Life is life, fight for it!

Which I think is very sweet of him. Yes Delly, life has to go on no matter what happens. Its just time will tell.

I am trying my very best to be patient!!!

Sabar tu separuh daripada iman.

I have to be patient. I have to be strong. I have always believe if you treat other people that way, one day you will feel it too. I am really hoping that this 'hate' feeling of being treated unfairly will go away soon. Maybe,....maybe these people are jealous. Maybe they are worried of something. I don't know.

Came across this:

Don't be afraid of opposition. Remember, a kite rises against; not with; the wind.

-Hamilton Mabie-

Argghhhh!!! Its so tough!

Crab anybody?

Last night, a group of us went and had dinner at one of the most famous restaurant in PJ which serves crab as the main dish. I have not been to the restaurant for the past 1 year. Reason being is - the usual person I go with is no more around, and to get a group of people to go together is not that easy anymore as everybody is kind of busy nowadays. And the other main reason is ......its quite pricey for a normal dinner and nowadays, I need to be really careful on the things I spend due to my financial constraints.

The dish, as how I remembered it during my last visit, still as tasty as before. In total, I only had 1 crab and a few slices of 'roti bakar' to go with it. As I told my friend before we started eating, I don't enjoy eating crab in public. I prefer to be at home, at my own convenient and nobody's around ...hehehe. Its kind of a bit untidy. But my friends have been trying to get me to join them for the past few weeks. I hate to turn them down this time.

Now,about 2 1/2 hours after dinner, I'm hungry again. That shows, few slices of bread and a crab is not sufficient to stuff my stomach...hahaha....

This is meaningful..

After a long weekend (yup, I am getting darker and darker), and with limited time to update my blog, I came across this which I think is true and meaningful:


One SONG can spark a moment.
One FLOWER can wake the dream.
One TREE can start a forest.
One BIRD can herald spring.
One SMILE begins a friendship.
One HANDCLASP lifts a soul.
One STAR can guide a ship at sea.
One VOTE can change a nation.
One SUNBEAM lights a room.
One CANDLE wipes out darkness.
One LAUGH will conquer gloom.
One STEP must start each journey.
One WORD can start a prayer.
One HOPE will raise our spirits.
One TOUCH can show you care.
One VOICE can speak with wisdom.
One HEART can know what is true.
One LIFE can make a difference.
One DREAM can build a family.

Went to Cheras to watch a non-chinese basketball tourney. Hmm.....the people I know played...not so good. Not up to their level best. Don't know why. The ball kept sliping off their hands. Thank god I'm not their coach.
