Dear Grandma....

Dear Grandma,

I know u have been really struggling with ur breathing, ur pain, ur ache.. It's hard.. I know... I feel u... everytime when i'm looking into ur eyes, i feel u... I know it's not easy to bare with this.

It's been almost 2 weeks u walking in and out from the hospital. I know u don't like it at all... So much till u raise ur voice saying the Hospital Bluff Money $$! I always enjoy looking at ur angry face scolding people that try to bluff our money! I know that when u scold, u talk loudly, u r clear, u r healthy. U just want to stay home and just be by our side. Every single time when we come and visit u, u will just welcome us with ur warm melting smile. It really melts my heart grandma. (And i do think that i have my sunshine smile from u! ", the irresistible one..)

Grandma, I really don't care about what doctor told us about, be prepared on ur departure, I just want grandma to know that u did a great job 嬷嬷! A very great job raising 12 children of urs as well as ur grandchildren. It's not easy at all to raise so many of us. Ur patient, ur love, ur care, ur understanding. U play a very important role in my life. Here I am standing Strong and Tall it's all because of ur love 嬷嬷... U meant so much to me!

All my childhood is all about u and grandpa. U both took care of me when daddy and mummy are out there working. U r the one that put me to bed, makesure i always covered with blanket and not catch cold. I missed those days that i slept next to u... It's just unsubscribed love.

U always makesure i have my cup of milo and bread before i get up to my school bus. Protected me when i got scold by daddy. U always believe in me, always tell people that i'm such a good grand daughter. Even though u don't know how to read and write but u r there to guide me on my HW which i dunno how... Lol. Ended up me teaching u how to read and write. Well, 嬷嬷, i know u don't even have a clue what am i trying to teaching u that time but all u r trying to do is just accompany me, be one of my playmate when Kah Fai is only 3 years old. So to be frank, i was never alone when i'm in my childhood. U are always there. And 嬷嬷, thanks for being there to support and encourage me in anything i do.

嬷嬷, It's so hard to actually asking me to stop, and just accepting the fact that u gonna be leaving me anytime... I always remember what i told u when i am about 8 years old. I told u that "嬷嬷, 你不可以死现, 不可以哦!我死了你才可以死!” It's just me hating to see her leaving me before me! It sounds really silly but ya, i want you to live a longer life then i do.

I know i am not a good grand daughter. Giving u hell when i was young. I'm really sorry grandma. But u will always be there by my side no matter what. and now i'm already a Woman grandma. I can take care of myself. I'm actually very Happy that now i can take care of u, visiting u as much as i can... It's really my pleasure!

嬷嬷, No matter what, I want u to be happy. “嬷嬷好,大家好!”

嬷嬷, I'm so honour to be ur grand daughter! Thanks for being the woman in my life! I will always keep ur sunshine smile with me.. always always in my heart!

Love u always,
子殷

I love Tuesday Night - the Salsa Night!!

I can't wait for every Tuesday night to come, It's my salsa class... A night that i truly enjoy myself with music, soul and body, not in a peaceful way but in a more lively movement steps where i dance along with salsa music and sway my body with the tempo that i count in my mind! I count "1,2,3... 5,6,7..." That's basically the tempo of the music and steps when we combine both together with our mambo. Loving the class, Loving myself looking at the mirror and dance tall, dance confidently! "Dance Tall" will be the words that Sam kept telling me! I tempt to look down alot on my steps but Sam, my instructor telling me to be calm and confident!!

"STAND TALL!"

Good Night!

A 2 days 1 nights Family Trip @ Cameron Highlands

I just came back from a Sunny cozy trip with my family 2 days ago. Not a 3 days 2 nights of trip but we only put one night @ Cameron Highlands since my daddy having bad diarrhea along the journey. Toilet were needed on our way up to the hill of Cameron. Blame it on a bottle of v-soy that he drinks a day ago! Well, only thing here was we didn't put up another day @ Penang but just nice as long as there's the 4 of us, traveling together as a family! Sweetttt....

Sungai Palas "Boh" Tea Plantations (One of the oldest plantations)

So here we are... the beautiful greenie Cameron Highlands, the Highlands that cover up with tea plantations, vegetable, flowers, cactus, and strawberry farms. I will call it as a friendly mountain if Genting Highland are called the entertainments mountain. If u would ask me which highlands will i prefer, definitely Cameron going to be my all time fav.

Lots of memories that i have on this mountain. Let me tell u few :
  • I have my very first horse ride here @ Strawberry Park.
  • My late uncle Foo used to be the Branch Manager of HSBC Bank, Tanah Rata where he stayed at this really nice cozy villa over there for a couple of years.
  • The scar on my forehead was actually
  • from my uncle's villa when my cousin trying to catch me when we're playing Police and Thief and i knock my head towards the gate fence.. that was so painful!!
  • I have lots of childhood taken there in the rose farm
  • My LP 4th weekend were there and we have 96% of us attended our weekend! One of the top achievements in 4th weekend
  • I have the best BBQ night @ Gerard's Guest house with Mic, Eva and Sue!
  • Our very first Smurfies trip there.
  • My grandparents celebrates their birthday @ Gerard's "father's guest house" where my grandpa loving it alot!
  • Joey and I very first trip there as a couple 2 and a half years ago!
  • and this time is goin to be a family trip up to Cameron with daddy's diarrhea moments! lol
Here's some photos that I snap along the journey :

a very original strawberry milk shake (sweet & sour), Vanilla Ice cream with fresh strawberry toppings and there's a huge strawberry farms opposite the shop where they have this 4 rolls of strawberry plants where they didn't gated it up and free for us to plug and eat fresh self plugged strawberry! Yummy!!!!!


Cameron Wild Orchids @ Gerard's Secrets Garden , Elizabeth , Purple Chrysanthemum & Blushy Pink Roses. You can find it all @ the Father's Guest House.


A "MUST EAT!!!" Big Boy's Breakfast @ Father's Guest House which is at Gerard's Place, Tanah Rata where they serve delicious American Breakfast with PORK Bacon, Scrambled Eggs, Bake Beans and also toasts with Fresh Strawberry Jam. Finger Licking Good man...

So these r the 2 Super Heros of my life. 1 definitely gonna be my dad and the other one will be my LP Buddy, Gerard Richard. The one that can't even remember my name in my Advanced Couse but now.. nah.. We're good Buddies. As you realise earlier, I've been mentioning alot of his name, and here u can see, that's Gerard Richard with his beloved wife Jay and his daughter. So lovely this photo where we took it at his Guest house where mostly all the foreign backpackers stay here. A very nice environment cottage planted with lots of beautiful flowers where Gerard and his wife managed it together. If u want to feel the original Cameron, Father's Guest House is definitely the place that best to be! the location of the place is just opposite Heritage Hotel. If u want to stay over, makesure u book it a month earlier because it's normally full. You can also log in to their website for more information: http://fathers.cameronhighlands.com/



Sungai Palas Tea Plantation

the Sungai Palas "Boh" Tea Plantation from the bottom view from the tea plantation when we're walking up to the Tea Factory. As u can see, that's actually the "Boh" Cafe.

The "Boh" Teh Tarik that u can hardly resist!



Photos I snap along the alley of the Tea Plantations
and of course my dear family portrait. Too bad it's a lil under exposure but ya, that's comes to the end of our lovely family trip!

I'm so looking forward for the coming trip that Joey gonna join us and we'll have Fai to drive us now instead of daddy!! Thanks to Daddy, Mummy and Fai for the lovely trip, and not to forget, Gerard too!

I found a very good spot in my toilet!!

yea... I found a very good spot in my toilet where i can lay my Macbook on my sink and i'm sitting on my bowl. Lol... Sounds a bit gross, not even abit, maybe very haha... but ya, this is such a right place to online while i'm doin my business in the toilet. I don't like to do nothing when i'm in the toilet. That's the best time to do something don't u agree. Like sometimes, song writers write their best song when they are businessing in the toilet! Lol... best inspiration are always coming from some strange place that u will not know, agree? haha...

Another Dress hunt for the weekend..

I'm finally lying down on my bed after a busy day. A heavy day today cause i'm trying to finish as much things as possible b4 i leave for the weekend!

That's What i normally like to do before i go to bed!! I'll hav a hot and warm shower, clean and fresh, lye down on my bed, open my Macbook and go online!! Facebooking (But i really have to stop this, somemore recently start to get addicted to Texas Hold'em Poker! Gosh!! all joey's bad for teaching me how to play during CNY!!!) I just log out from my facebook account and surfing and entering some blogshops with new arrivals! I dunno y, I really like to see what's the fashion out there now tht people will normally buy for party, dinner, casual, dates, outings and so on... and why will they sell this? Like to look at the way how they shoot their dresses fitting it on either themselves or on the mannequin. Love the way how they layout their blog. It's just interesting to look at right...



This is a very nice flowerish dress that i found it at [http://shopaholicsu.blogspot.com]. It's called as the Hawaiian Night

I like the name and i like the dress too. Look at the beads that tied on the shoulder. That's so holiday looking. Even a very nice dress to where when u r goin out with ur friends for afternoon tea time @ Bangsar Village 2's Delicious! Haha... I can even imagine where shall the dress be worn to. Lol.. But such a pretty dress and it only cost RM53. I actually bought 2 items from this shop before. Some of the dreeses are also designed by the owner, Leng, herself. She's a very nice lady. I enjoy buying things from her! and she's always very efficient with her delivery and her items are always in good condition.

a very Good Hunt for the night! Going off to bed now! Good Night!

Trying out my Patient on my products..

It's time to design some new pewter cachet for my notebook 2011. Time flies and now I'm starting up my engine again for year 2011 Notebook and Calendar Designs. Gawd... it's pretty soon my company's NB is on sales again!!

A really impatient someone like me, i normally come out with designs that not much of details work, maybe a simple motive like this... where it's just straight lines..

So this year, I want to take my drawing and patient skills to a next level. Challenging myself to draw something that's more lively like animals, flower since some of the souvenir shops @ Sabah asking us for more designs that symbolize the country.First thing that came across my mind is Mt. Kinabalu but i'm still looking for a right image for me to draw, which i'm still looking but Orang Utan will be one of the simplest one that i can find on the internet but OMG, look at the fur, the hands, it's all details drawing. Gosh, so I TAKE THIS STRETCH, drawing this cute creature in the rain forest of Borneo.

Taa daaa.... Take a look with this Orang Utan that i spend 3 hours plus to complete the whole drawing using illustrator.

I can't believe myself sitting on my place drawing this annoying hair one by one! however, it looks pretty impressive right? But i still feel that the tummy part looks a lil bit awkward. Gonna do some changes there. Going to show my artistic mum on this and she will give me some ideas on where i should do some changes. I hope that it looks nice when we craft it out in Pewter.

and here u go, a quick look at one of my Notebook ideas for year 2011. Slightly i diff concept. We used fancy paper glued on chipboard as our cover for this year's NB. But this year, I think i will prefer a stich bind with UV Varnish printed on my cover of the notebook. I'm not sure whether my boss like my ideas or not but haha.. to me, I'm gonna be taking charge of the year end products, and i don't care what is he gonna says!! haha.. as if I will do so! But ya, it's something diff so we have a wider range of notebook in our company. I'm looking forward for more designs coming up soon in this 3 weeks time!
