3 Tags - Current Crush, Gotta Get Goals, Fave Wave


Tag No. 1
Vegemaster tagged me yesterday. I'm supposed to write a story about my crush, current or previous. A picture is worth a thousand words, they always say. Since I've been so lazy busy with tax, babies etc, I'll just let the picture tell you about My Crush. Sorry vegemaster, I'm not tagging anyone because... errrr... because... I'll tell you later why...



TAG No. 2
Then narrowband tagged me on Gotta Get Goals. I'm to list out 5-10 goals I'd like to achieve before I get too old, no matter how chi sin the goals might be.
I only have one goal to share with you.

I wanna open a Starbucks Cafe in Puchong.

Less goal(s), better chance of success, no? *wink*

So tell us your goals...

TAG No. 3
L B tagged 5 of us for this Tech Techno Technorati's Fave the Site 'list'. I don't really know how this works but he said it's for some Blog Popularity thingy. Would matter to those who are trying to make some $$$ from the Internet, I suppose, I really don't know. But the ONE and ONLY reason I'm doing this to help enhance +ve chi although I must say this, this sounds like an MLM scam whereby all those at the "top" (but in this list's case, it's at the "bottom") stand to gain the most, ie. being the popular-est since EVERYONE has been 'instructed' to start & end what to copy. But never mind lah...

My apologies for the sporadic updates. Reason? Errr... let's just say that sometimes, I get tongue-tied, or in this case, fingers-tied? This week will definitely zoom by me before I fly off for a week to this place. Postcards again, anyone? *wink* Who didn't get it the last time?

About Negative Chi...



Today, two friends blogged about Negative Chi, he & she. What is Negative Chi, you asked? Negative Chi is the person who lets out bad stinging poots. Negative Chi is the person who thinks he/she is the victim, always right and rants (like no tomorrow) and bitches to everyone, and of course, pointing one pathetic finger at everyone else, not realising the 4 other fingers pointing back to herself/himself. (Yes, I know, this is an archaic [or not] example, but who cares?!) In short, you beh tahan these Negative Chi people.


Sometimes, if not most of the time, we just cannot stand these kind of Bad Flavour, can we? Oh, and some of these Bad Chis (thankfully not much!) come from blogs & comments too. Uh huh, unfortunately they do. And not forgetting recently, some of those politically portugally piggy pathetic comments. Delete them! Kao Tim!


How else could you counter this incessant bad bad chi?

  • You play with babies or doggies.

  • You watch the latest episode of Heroes.

  • You read funny blogs like Bibik Nyonya, or you drool on (food) blogs like Aiyah Nonya. (Yes, I'm introducing two nyonya blogs to you which I enjoy!)

  • You twitter with Enhancers of Positive Chis like the Emperor, Concies M & C and the rest of the gang.

  • You go to a far far away place for a break, like her (soon *wink*)...

Anything else?

Oh yeah, I would like to thank Leon (sorry winn, it's not Leon Lai) for dedicating an entry to me just because I sent him a song which he (and myself too) has been looking for ages, to be exact, 8 years. Yes, I've successfully completed a small part of his life with this song... haha... Thanks for the nice words, Leon! You are a Positive Chi! YAATTTAAA!!!

Angel And An ApPearl©



YATTA!!! (Hiro Nakamura style, of course!) For those not in the know of this "YATTA" in-thang, here, watch this clip!




Okay, so what am I Yatta-ing about? My new Toy... The Greatest Fruit On Earth... The Apple Computer... Yup, I've converted from this...




...all thanks to great influence by Le Apple Emperor & Concubine M. Oh, and another friend too, who wanted to get the same 'toy'.

Mine is Pearl(y), my friend's is Blackie... Kakaka...


Okay, initally, I wanted to get the Pro version (RM7,799) but in the end, I chickened out because this is my first Appearl©, I thought that I should start to 'walk' first instead of run for fear of 'falling down' h.a.r.d. on my face... well, not literally, of course!

And when I thought, okay, Blackie should be it (which is RM700 more expensive than the white, the only difference is the hardisk space, 40GB more, and the colour of course) because a White would turn Black in no time! But when I was at the Premium Reseller store, Machines at Mid-Valley Megamall last week, Joewen changed my mind. Yeah, this chap did some sales talk to me about the Airport Express and... I am a sucker.




So, for RM5,858, I got the white 13-inch 2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo (with 1GB memory, 80GB hard drive), a blue iPod Shuffle (FOC), the Wireless Mighty Mouse (FOC), a black sleeve for the MacBook, keyboard protector (like the iPod skin) and Airport Express Base Station with AirTunes. (Freethinker, 9 other users can share Internet connection with me. See, I no bluff you...)


Nah, scau, the Nipple that Rolls...

My verdict? So far, I love what I see. Way more canggih than Windows and I think it's also smarter than Windows. How so? Dunno how to explain, just take my word for it lah! I still have a lot to learn and I feel so challenged. Anyone else out there can help this damsel? Helppp, cp1!!!

Happy Sunday! Anyone going for hi-tea @ Nikko Hotel in a bit? *wink*

ps: Happy Belated Birthday, Rocker Kenny Ng! (His birthday was yesterday, 21st April)

Reach For Your Dreams!

It's been an uplifting day today after attending a one day training. The trainer kept this song playing the whole day and at the end of the day, got karaoke session summore...


Gloria Estefan - Reach Lyric

Some dreams live on in time forever
Those dreams, you want with all your heart

And I'll do whatever it takes
Follow through with the promise I made
Put it all on the line
What I hoped for at last would be mine

If I could reach, higher
Just for one moment touch the sky
From that one moment in my life
I'm gonna be... stronger
Know that I've tried my very best
I'd put my spirit to the test
If I could reach

Some days, are meant to be remembered
Those days, we rise above the stars.....

So I'll go the distance this time
Seeing more the higher I climb
That the more I believe
All the more that this dream will be mine

If I could reach, higher
just for one moment touch the sky
from that one moment in my life
I'm gonna be stronger
Know that i've tried my very best
I'd put my spirit to the test
if I could reach

If I could reach, higher
Just for one moment touch the sky
From that one moment in my life
I'm gonna be stronger
I'm gonna be so much stronger, yes I am
I put my spirit to the test

If I could reach, higher
If I could, if i could
If I could reach...
Reach, I'd reach, I'd reach
I'd reach, I'd reach so much higher
Be stronger

Do you have a dream? A realistic and attainable one, of course. If you don't, put some thought into it (the trainer said that he had to get away to Awana to think about his aspirations...) and Reach for Your Dream... (Through an Action Plan of course... and with deadlines...) G O O D L U C K ! ! !

Birthdays, Friday the 13th & Songkran

Aloha!!! Ciao!! Howdy! Long time no see! How's everything? Hope all's well! First and foremost, please gather around to wish me Daddy...


Wait! Wait! Not yet finish! Don't go away yet... Stay for a little while longer to wish nyonyapenang A Happy Belated Birthday! Her 'big' day was 3 days ago, 10th of April. Yes, please note that down! *wink*


Okay, so it's Friday the 13th. On top of 13 April being Daddy's birthday, it is also Thai New Year, or better known as Songkran! Sawadee pi mai!!! Songkran is also known as the Water Festival. With this Water Festival term, I'm sure you'd guess what is involved... Yeah! WATER!!!




On this day (mostly the first day), people go around town throwing water at anyone and everyone! Yeah! Don't believe? Believe me... because I was in Bangkok exactly a year ago to witness it! fl sam, you should have gone for your Tee Off in Bangkok this weekend instead of last weekend!



To be honest, it was a stressful holiday! Haha! Why? Because I had to avoid those Thai! On this day, they have the 'licence' to splash water on just anyone! Thank god it was only for one day they do that... But on the other hand, the water did help to cool us down under the hot sun! So our clothes were dried up in no time.



So, how do you like my new template? Come tell me, okay? I'm still struggling to put in all my Fabulous Tunes and all my Cute Angels. It didn't work and I still don't know how to make it work. Worse comes to worse, I'll revert to the old template.

Have a good weekend! *wink*
