It's ok to be single..

Young ppl now a days are far too eager to get a partner to love.. when the meaning of love is not yet define correctly.. It's really more than just a feeling.. It's responsibility, commitment, faithfulness, self-control, self sacrifice, patience, understanding, trust, honesty and much more..
.
Are YOU prepare for it?
.
Is your love going to hold when troubles comes? When money is an issue? When future is at stake? When in laws is involved? When expectations is unmet? When arguements happens? When children comes into the picture? ARE YOU REALLY READY for a relationship? Why can't have good friends to hang out with and talk and get to know each other and yourselves before deciding to commit yourself to ONE person? why??~~
.
I suppose we are all searching for LOVE.. and it is nice to be loved... the attention, the quality time spent.. the sharing of good times..
.
I can't blame young people now a days looking for that special someone.. I mean.. I was them too.. and I have 3 ex boy friends before.. so who am I to say that you are all in the wrong? BUT one thing I didn't have for some of you was, I didn't really have God in my heart.. No one told me to pray for my life partner until I was old enough to be married. LOL.. I didn't had any guide to how to wait and why to wait.. I just bang on the walls and learn it the hard way..
.
I hope young people out there would really hear our (older people) advise, to pray and to wait for that special person God has made for us... START praying now.. and better still write it down.. The list may change at times.. but that's because you have changed.. :) Coz you got to know yourself better and you know what you want more and more.. so.. Until the list is unchange.. you are still growing..
.
You wanna know my list? Of what I prayed for for the man I want to marry? :D
.
Will share it when i dig out my prayer journal one of these days.. HA!!! ~~

Good bye Corbis.. Part I

It is time to say good bye to my company which i've served for 4 years in sales.. My company, bosses and collegues was great... Pay and benefits was not too bad.. the work stress is manageble but most of all the culture of the company made it easy to work (not all the time but most of the time..)
.
I wanna thank my bosses before me: Christopher and Eddie (ex-bosses), Peony, Nicholas, Jacky and Sophia..
.
Christopher, to me is a visionary. He gave me the big picture on how I can serve the company better with what i have. He is understanding and fair.. He never fails to motivate me, challenging me and encourage me.. He is one of the most generous person I know.. :) I'll miss him dearly..
.
Eddie, he made me cry~~~ LOL.. but i love him the same.. he is a good friend to have and eventhough he was my boss, he is still a good friend! He is very perfectionist and very capable person. Full of creativity and life! He always suggest good things for me and I always appreciate his thoughfulness..
.
Peony, she is awesome! She understands me and I know she'll always have my back! I can trust her with her decisions to give me more work coz I know it is necessary.. Coz if it was not, she would not overload me.. :P she knows me well and always gives me wonderful gifts! I love them all!!! She is also very generous and kind.. always happy and postitive!.. I love her for her sun shine attitude.. gonna miss her so much..
.
Nick and Jacky, my two funniest bosses ever!!! they have the funniest chemistry.. i love to hear them argue.. not the serious type of arguements, the silly and childish ones... I'll always remember they tease themselve 'bodoh' as they were not familiar with bahasa Malaysia.. Nick: "You bodoh." Jacky; "No, you bodoh. Say I'm bodoh.. You more bodoh." then the arguement will go on and on in a funny way.. ahahahaha.. Both of them always made my day!!!
.
Nick is always so happy go lucky.. He is charming and full of fun! (sounds like another Nicholas we all know.. ahahaha) He can charm clients like no ones business.. amazing skills! Always admire his boldness, free spirit and determination..
.
Jacky is always so sensitive and caring.. He can be gentle and firm when he chooses to. I still remember his taxi story :D and I can't believe that he could be so angry with a taxi driver.. LOL.. He is so real and nice.. I really like him as my boss.. he is responsible and reliable.. :)
.
Sophia.. our vise president... eventhough i'm don't work directly under her or even in the same office.. I find that she is very personal and yet firm all at time same time.. She is so capable and strong willed... I admire her.. It is not easy to take on such responsibilities and yet she could do it so well and with much integrity and elegance..
.. to be continued....

McD @ Wangsa Maju.. ur service sucks!!

Sorry for the language.. but truly the service at Wangsa Maju McDonald suck big time!
.
Our family went out to buy our grocerries one day and bb was crying.. so we stop at McD to feed her and may be buy some food for Alexander while waiting for bb..
.
Hubby was waiting in line for a long time and the lady infront of him was taking a long time as she ordered a lot.. and when the counter waitress (I dunno wht we call them ler..pls tell me if you know.. ) asked her to wait beside the counter (which is next to Nigel) while she go and prepare the customer's order.. ppl start to line up the wrong side which was on the lady's side.. and when the counter finish packing or serving the lady customer, she went and serve the ppl behind her.. bodoh right!? she blind or wht?cannot see my hubby there long time d meh? my hubby so big, carrying a kid some more she cannot see ah? and she knew that the line there is to wait for the food to be prepared or packed.. not for order.. hubby's line was the correct line for ordering..
.
Sorry but i'm very up set with her.. but hubby got the patience to just let it be but angry enough to not order anymore..
.
I know as Christ's follower I must be patient.. again it shows that I'm still in the process of gorwing up. But sometimes these things gets to me! Cut Q lar.. serve the wrong food lar.. insect inside my food lar.. etc.. Many Malaysians will just be ok with it.. it's true! but I dun think that by doing so we are being nice lor.. We are letting ppl take things for granted! (ello? this is what you call service kah? we pay for it right? I dun need Kings' and Queens' treatment but at least some fairness and courtesy lar when you serve your customer, right?) We should have told them our expectation so they can improve themselves..
.
Anyway, a question for you.. If someone were to cut-Q infront of you when you are the next to be served and there are ppl behind you also waiting to be served, would you gently tell the person not to cut the Q? even if that person is your fren? I dare you~~~ >:)

Thank God..

Wanna thank God for so many things..
Even though my life ain't perfect and it is frustrating at times..
I still remember that I live for Him and that I need Him more than ever..
.
I keep complaining about other ppl's incompetency..
And in the end I realize my own disability..
In the end, I remembered that is why we human..
Need Jesus..
.
As I grow older, I either have grown more patience..
Or I have completely gone astray..
For I am not as fierce and passionate as I use to be..
Perhaps I dun want to always "give a piece of my mind."
Coz if I do tt.. sooner or later I will have none..
.
but despite all these I still thank the Lord..
for being merciful to me..
For without His guidance and His Holy Spirit's directions..
I would not know where or what to do with the sheeps I was suppose to lead..
.
Sometimes I doubt, when I lead is anyone following?
Or am I just taking a walk on my own?
Would my life be a good enough example to lead someone?
Is it worth following at all?
.
I hope i have something to offer..
Something more than myself to give..
something that is from the Lord..
For the young sheep I am to lead..
.
I thank God for His blessings..
Amen..

A holiday...


I know Nigel never asked for a holiday while he was taking care of Alexander.. alone... tt's because he doesn't like to travel.. tt's wht he says.. but I love to travel.. I'm like my mom.. we love to go places.. to see the world.. to explore.. to relax...

Every Sunday in Sabah, for me after church, my mom and my step dad will go somewhere to fill the Sunday with relaxing trips... to beaches, to the Sunday 'tamu', a couple of hours of traveling to the villages, scout for food etc.. I do love those Sundays..

When I grow old.. I hope I would be able to do tt :) with Nigel and with my children.. We dun need to spend much money.. just as long as we go as a family and enjoy each others company.. tt will do :) Just Chillaxing..

Taxi Driver yesterday..

Guess what!! Yesterday afternoon was my first "me time" event after months of taking care of my family.. And you know wht i did? I went to do my hair :D (like last time also LOL.. but this time i went alone.. Last time my mom company me..)
.
Anyway.. will talk about my hair some other time.. (tomorrow may be?haha) I wanted to talk about the taxi drivers now a days! SO what is my complaint!? nothing! ahahaha..
.
I dun drive (yet) so I normally travelling by bus or taxi when I'm alone so yesterday when I go to the saloon, I took a taxi.. and even though he does not know where is the place I was referring too.. this old man were still willing to send me.. good oh.. old grandfather taxi drivers are more willing than the younger ones.. hmm..
.
The when i go home.. so coincidentally there was a taxi waiting at the road ride at the taxi stand :) i got in and told him to go to my place but no need (but did not ask him to make a U-turn to go to the other side of the road where my place where..) I asked him to drop me at the pedestrian crossing..
.
At the time i was not feeling too well coz the saloon was sooooo cold i was severing! literally!! i think i got a slight fever already.. so i must take meds when I get home... anyway, when arrive at the pedestrian crossing, the amount on the meter was MYR 3.60 but I gave him MYR10 and asked him to keep the change.. he was very thankful and offered to send me and make a U-turn.. I told him it's ok.. keep the money and I'll walk.. I'd like to take a walk.. (in my ill state.. ahahaha) so I took a short walk home..
.
During that walk I feel really glad with the bit I have in my purse I was still able to give.. to that taxi drive that extra could mean his 1-2 hours work.. I was watching "Bersamamu" the other day and got to know this lady who worked in a food court for MYR3 per day!!! I cannot believe it!! My little extra could have given her a 2 days leave!
.
I hope i dun seem like 'angkat bakul' here (self praise).. but what I wanted to high light is that only after I decided to give, I realized how important that small gift could have been perceived by the receiver.. how much it may help him/her.. I am going to leave my working career to pursue a home maker's life (ahahah sounds like a career change like tt...it is but, in which no salary is given when we are a home maker ei.. sad).. So money for me will be limited.. but I hope I can still choose to give something to someone out there something meaningful and useful..
.
Thank you Lord for the blessings you have poured out into my life.. in all areas no matter good or bad I will still praise you.. You have test me and know my heart but continue to do so, so that I be glorify you in the way I was meant to be.. You promised that I will be successful (in what I'm still searching), I would be like child sitting in the back seat and ask You Lord, " Are We There Yet??" ahahaha.. and I think Your reply will be.. " Not Yet Dear." :D "okie..." Amen..

"Quantum Leap"

Do you know this show? One of my fav series!! I love detective movies, mysteries and supernatural.. Once a while Romantic movies is not too bad.. but not all love movies are nice.

Have you heard of the series called " Murder She Wrote."?? Another nice series.. No wonder i love CSIs, Criminal Minds, The mentalist, Bones etc.. anything that got to do with finding out the truth or something like a puzzle.. of course it may not be the truth but it's a puzzle..

Real truth could be watching the Discovery channels or National Geographic :D even that I think may not be all true.. especially when they talked about the Big Bang Theory, Evolution etc..

Anyway.. I'm currently into "Quantum Leap." old old show... but good moral values and some history are shared in it too.. and those are the facts.. (mostly lar.. i think..) I hope someone out there can appreciate the show too.. :) coz it's really creative.. :D

Dirty little Alexander :P





Hey! What can I say... Eventhough I clean a lot and I love being clean.. I dun mind my Kids gets dirty on the outside.. as long as they are pure on the inside :)
.
They have to get dirty some how or another.. It releases their creativity and be free to use their senses.. Unlike us during our younger years, we play with mud, tree leaves and everything we can get our hands on outside our house... LOL.. now our children can only play indoors for safety reasons.. so why not give them some pleasure of getting 'down to earth' :D with thier bare hands!!! right? :D anyone out there agrees with me? ahahahaha.. (okok i know some of you out there dun agree..) :P
.
I love my childhood when I was free to roam around the forest of my grandfather's rubber estate. I would imagine a whole lot and dream my days away during the holidays :D When I was much younger, I would collect soil and add water to it as if it was stew. Sometimes even tried to make fire to cook it!!! LOL! What fun!!
