Safely Back?

I'm not sure if I'm really "back" for good, but am making efforts to stay. Too many reasons which kept me away from blog itself, but it's far too long to be away that I just had to come back I guess. Or at least drop by to say hello =)

How are things on my end? 2 words - Awesomely Busy! It's been some months since I actually upload a post. To be honest, I don't know why my other posts just didn't got my finger to click the upload button. 

So why awesomely busy? New Job, new priorities and new dreams! Changed profession (yes, again~) and it's much convenient now. Met and got connected with some amazing people, which gave me a lot of ideas of what I should be focusing on. Thanks to bigger and better perspective from meeting leaders in the past few months, it led me to believe in wilder dreams =) Just came back from my first ever trip to India with some friends, and boy was it an amazing experience! The saying of "it's not where you go, it's who you're with where ever you are that matters" is 150% true! I had a lot of fun and learned a lot from the more senior and mature friends.

Whether or not, I'll be back for long, I guess there's no safe way to determine that. All I can say, is that I'll do my best =) Wanna make sure the next update splendid!

CNY 2012 1st Day!

As always, CNY 1st Day is dedicated to family members and relatives, but what makes it different is that I have my baby Luxian w/ me as part of the new family member! I guess it’s because of her, there’s a post on CNY =D (my DSLR is too heavy and bulky for quick P&S (Point&Shoot)). So, let’s check out how my 1st Day of CNY is =P

Breakfast!

Yummey! The same breakfast every year, and it taste awesome each time! =D
Mouth-watering delicacy! =P

 

My mum and sis

 

Here’s the star baby of the day!
Jaden’s the name, attraction is what he gained!
(P.s: That’s not the mother)

 

More of Jaden
(P.s: She’s his mum)

Initially this was silhouette but after some tweak and adjustments,
I managed to add colors and tone it up =D
*proudly shines*

 

See what I mean?
He’s like here and there from one pair of arms to another!

 

Afternoon!

Saw this at Sunway - what an awesome display!
*Woaaaahhh~~*

 

Dinner!

Muahahaha, FOOD FOOOD FOOOOD!!
Truth be told, I think I gained much here!

 

GrandAunt, Cousins, Uncle & Aunty, Mum & Sis, and me of course!
eating CNY 1st dinner together =)

Other relatives arrived shortly after we finished our dinner =)

 

Here comes the star baby of the night!
Stealing away (my) crowd’s attention

 

“Sorry Girls, Daddy says I can’t date until I’m 28!”
Wicked cool tee!!
Awwww.. poor lil’ girl have to wait until he’s 28 =P

 

Baby seems to be taken away by gadgets…
nowadays, all babies are like that too, aren’t they?

I know a kid that is so used to an iPad, when shown a laptop, was practically calling the device stupid…
”This thing stupid wan, cannot swipe!”
Dafuq?!

 

Well, that’s my 1st day of CNY…
Pretty exciting, I’d say =D

 

So, how was yours?
Share with me, by writing in your comments =)

so that I can read up too!)

HAPPY NEW YEAR (2012) !

I know it’s Chinese New Year (CNY) and I should be writing about it, but who set those rules right? =P Well, in conjunction with the New Year *grins*, I wanna take this opportunity to share out what I did on the first day of new year! What better way it is to celebrate with great friends and family!

Actually, before I head into the story, I wanna highlight a couple of stuffs that I’ve accomplished so far for the year 2011:

• Promotion in less than 1 year of service (previous job)
• Complete insurance examinations for Life Insurance and Investment-Link within 1 month (includes studying and sitting for the exams)
• Caught up with some old buddies before new year ends (no names mentioned)
• Bought a NEW car (I’m a proud owner of a Silver Saga FL 1.3 Auto *grins*)
• Bought a NEW camera (Panasonic Lumix LX5 baby!)
• Bought a NEW laptop (Awesome Asus K43U!)
• Traded lens for Tamron 17-50mm & Traded phone for N97 mini
• Lost 5KG in less than 2 weeks (well I cheated; dental surgery didn’t allow me to eat much *smirks*)
• Drove to Malacca (first trip down in years!)
• Etc. (I’m sure if I go on any further, you’ll just close and ignore the rest of the post *sobs, you don’t care about me, sobs*)

So, enough of the “bragging” and back to the story about New Year’s celebration… Went up to Genting the morning after NYE’s at Samuel’s place, with him and 7 other pals of mine (Alex, Jacquelyn, Stephanie, Jackie, Marilyn, Samantha, & Jeremy) to … celebrate the New Year, of course! Initial plan was to be there BEFORE the new year, and come back AFTER first day of new year, but no rooms were avail for us then. Steph and I was there for 1 night, whilst the others stayed another night to celebrate Alex’s birthday… Well, I’ll let my pictures tell the rest of the story =)

[left] Lunch @ Gohtong Jaya (Being early, that’s what I ate for lunch with Alex, Jac & Steph)
[right] That’s dinner with the bunch!

 

Some shots of us while waiting for dinner to be served..
Apparently, there were some fireworks at Genting,
but I was too focused on dinner, I didn’t bother about it =(

 

[left] We played the indoor arcade! (How can you not play, right? *grins*)
[right] my side project… (More at the end!)

How can you not GAMBLE at Genting??!!
HUAT AR!

Jeremy flexing his muscles…
and that’s how our room looks like to fit 9 people…
P.s : I didn’t sleep where they slept.. I conquered the floor!

 

A group shot of us in the morning!
Awesome night we had!

 

Whilst half the lot won quite a fair bit,
the others didn’t… somewhat like the uncle there…
”Y U NO LET ME WIN!!”

 

As I’m only there for a night, I had to head down after lunch the following morning…
the last shot in Genting, and a shot taken when I’m nearing home

 

But I did manage to get some pretty awesome landscape shots of Genting,
in the morning (before heading down) whilst the others were sleeping so soundly…
Well, we did after all only managed to sleep at about 5 am…
(no thanks to someone snoring so loudly! RAWR!)

Comment bit about the landscape?
(pictures taken with LX5 w/ minor post editing)

 

Alright, so back to where I mentioned about my side project…
You see, I’ve been planning for this quite sometime,
though it didn’t go quite as planned, but somehow it was good enough =D

My aim was to go to Genting fulfilling 3S:
Singlet, Shorts and Slipper, and stay like that for the whole day…
But it rained in Genting, dropping the temperature even more, so the plan didn’t last long…
So, I improvised and turned it into 5S instead:
Singlet, Shorts, Slipper, Shyiok Sendiri!
w/ nerd glasses and a bottle of Black label making me look #likeadrunktard!

last picture there was taken by Jackie; the shoe came from Jeremy…
thanks for the support bro, (=.=”)

 

So Looking Forward To This (2012) Year’s Trip to Genting Again!
