Nothing Is Easy!

Gee... didn't think that posting a blog can be this tough! Editing here, editing there, aligning the photos and setting the format of the wordings right...

Tough job. Goes to show.... I'm not that fast with catching up with the young ones who can practically publish their public diary with photos!

My hats off to all you adik-adik (younger ones) out there. I actually have 1 more thought to post but I'm exhausted....

Well, i will when i have gathered enough strength to continue... soon I hope

An Ode To Angie and Ky Lie

Such a day it was
I’ll never forget,
Come 8.00pm
And in we step,
For food and fun
For smiles and flashes

Fulfillment of my birthday wishes.

Seafood Pizza
With a dash of Tobasco
Black Pepper Linguine
A truly spicy fete,
We ate them all, we clean the plates
To make way for a delicious cake.

Lovely lullaby of a birthday song,
Click click the camera rolls on,
Savour the Tiramisu
And we couldn’t help ourselves
To a second helping too!

Time to go
The bill was paid.
All I can say
What a wonderful day!

Thank you girls
For your thoughtfulness,
Indeed I am extremely blessed.

My prayers would be
For you from Above,
Blessings are always coming,
Protection wherever you’re going,
Wisdom in all understanding,
And Joy overflowing.

Cheers!

Survivor Fiji

I have watch Survivor since Season 2 and never have I been more proud of than to have our very own Malaysian, Chan Yau Man for this latest season.

Hailed from Kota Kinabalu, this man of prowess finished his studies in the States and now holds the position of a Director in one of the most prestigious universities there.

He played the game right in Survivor and uphold intergrity throughout while playing (except for the fake immunity idol, he made). Unfortunately he did not get to win the million bucks (got played out by Dreamz who did not hold his promises to Chan) but nontheless he made it to the final four. Eventhough Earl won the million bucks, he was even branded by a former survivor contestant The Ultimate Survivor.

It was:
"Yau Man is a true Survivor and a class act all the way." (quoted by Terry Deitz- Survivor Panama, Exile Island)

"To Yau-Man; Thanks for setting the standards of Survivor to a new level. The Immunity Necklace should be called the Yau-Man necklace. A shot of Jack or Sake with you any time. You should give up ping-pong and write a book on, “How To Win at Survivor.“ I think that the Pirate Master will be a flop without some older people (there were a lot of older real pirates), me and the Yau-Man. I really think that all the older Survivors can kick butt. Also, I have some real pirate wenches on myspace." (quoted by Bruce Kanegai- Survivor Panama, Exile Island)

"From the neck up Yau Man is one of the most powerful players the game has ever seen. He’s one of the most active thinkers and most cognizant of his surroundings of anyone that’s played. " (quoted by Bobby Mason - Survivor Panama, Exile Island)

"In all the seasons of Survivor, Yau-man has rightfully earned the title of OVER-ALL ULTIMATE SURVIVOR! Earl is a very nice man. However, he will soon be forgotten. Yau-man, however, will go down in Survivor history as the most amazing human being ever to play this game." (quoted by Scout Cloud Lee - Survivor Vanuatu)

How do i know all these when they do not show this season of Survivor on our shore? The reliable internet and CBS network of course. Go to http://www.cbs.com/primetime/survivor14/

What i don't understand is, why aren't our tv stations airing Survivor this time round? We have a Malaysian on it and i think the country needs to show our support for him as he plays the game (although, they're usually air the episode months after they're back).

I mean, this guy is a through and through Malaysian (yes, he's a US citizen now) and we're not making a big fuss out of it. But former Miss Georgia (Miss America 2006 1st runner up), Monica Pang who was not born here, who never grew up here and who don't even really know her roots here in this country until after she won her title - BIG media hype!

Well, i'm waiting to see if after the news appears from the US about Yau Man, our local tv might consider airing Survivor Fiji. But one thing is for sure, if he had won the 1 million bucks - they'll definitely show, without a doubt.

Coffee At Last!

Because i sick sick sick last one whole week, i was deprived of my favourite drink - coffee, nescafe, anything with caffeine, you name it.

Finally, alas! I had my 1st cup of Nescafe this morning. Tea lady laughed at me, saying, "Bagus ma. Sudah baik, kopi boleh minum". I was in ecstasy slurping in and having my cereals with it. Back to my normal lifestyle.

Somehow, when i was sick last week, i only had Milo and now looking Milo, i would be thinking, "Darn. Milo is only for the sick." and not "Minum Milo anda jadi sihat dan kuat!".
Heard from a friend many weeks back, Nescafe is of the lowest grade of coffee... processes after processes after processes - wa la! Nescafe!

Gee.... who cares?! So long as i get my dose of caffeine. Vietnam coffee is the best.... especially when you brew it using the traditional coffee maker. The aroma lifts you to cloud 9. With a little dash of creamer and sugar, the taste just simply brings you to heaven.

Ok, it's coffee break now...

In the mean time, just go to this link your reading pleasure:

Mothers' Day

Well... Mothers' Day is tomorrow. The day when mums all over the world are suppose to be resting... I really mean suppose to. Still, there will be mothers out there fussing over their children or other people's children and makes you wonder....why?

How about children who are clueless as to this day? Even with all the hype through the media... which world do these kids belong?

How about mothers who are not all that motherly? Or mothers who just refuse to believe that they're mothers, no matter what the circumstances are?

Anyway, it doesn't matter.... To all mothers out there... wishing you "A Blessed Mothers' Day. Take a break, chill out and God bless".

Mum... my wish would be, "You're the best mum a daughter could ever have. You're my hero - Superwoman, Wonderwoman and Ultrawoman. I love you and I'm definitely taking you out to chill. I love you. Happy Mum's Day and oh yar! Happy Nurses Day too! Muax!"
