Out Here On My Own


Another meaningful forwarded email

In April, Maya Angelou was interviewed by Oprah on her 70+ birthday.
Oprah asked her what she thought of growing older.
And, there on television, she said it was "exciting." Regarding body changes, she said there were many, occurring every day...like her breasts.
They seem to be in a race to see which will reach her waist, first.
The audience laughed so hard they cried. She is such a simple and honest woman, with so much wisdom in her words!


Maya Angelou said this:
"I've learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow."
"I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights."
"I've learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you'll miss them when they're gone from your life."
"I've learned that making a 'living' is not the same thing as 'making a life'."
"I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance."
"I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw some things back."
"I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision."
"I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one."
"I've learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone.
People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back."
"I've learned that I still have a lot to learn."
"I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."

******************************************

Actually I am looking forward to get older. Now, I cant wait to reach age 30. It is the wisdom/experience one gathers throughout his/her life that makes he/she looks good/pretty. The beauty of the inner-self I suppose. And for lady/woman, as you grow older, I guess you'll tend to have more "nui yan mei".









A Quote, meaningful quote

I've got this quote from a colleague's farewell mail this morning. Just to share: -

**************************************************

Not to bitter over life's disappointment,
learn to let go of the past,
and recognize that everyday won't be sunny,
when you find yourself lost in a darkness and despair,
remember it's only in a black of night,
that you can see the stars,
and those stars lead you back home,
so don't afraid to make mistake,
to stumble, fall,
cause most of the time,
the greatest reward comes from doing things,
that scare you the most,
maybe you get everything you wish for,
maybe you get more than you could've imagine,
who knows where life will take you,
the road is long and in the end,
the journey is the destination.

Sometimes when we Touch - Dan Hill

On my way back home, radio was playing this song. One of my favs.

********************************************

You ask me if I love you
And I choke on my reply
I'd rather hurt you honestly
Than mislead you with a lie
And who am I to judge you
On what you say or do?
I'm only just beginning to see the real you


And sometimes when we touch
The honesty's too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you til I die
Til we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides

Romance and all its strategy
Leaves me battling with my pride
But through the insecurity
Some tenderness survives
I'm just another writer
Still trapped within my truth
A hesitant prize fighter
Still trapped within my youth

And sometimes when we touch
The honesty's too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you til I die
Til we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides

At times I'd like to break you
And drive you to your knees
At times I'd like to break through
And hold you endlessly

At times I understand you
And I know how hard you've tried
I've watched while love commands you
And I've watched love pass you by

At times I think we're drifters
Still searching for a friend
A brother or a sister
But then the passion flares again

And sometimes when we touch
The honesty's too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you til I die
Til we both break down and cry
I wanna hold you till the fear in me subsides

********************************************

Sometimes when we touched, you touched deep in my heart.....

Last Christmas

A hit song from George Micheal during 80s

*************************************

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, You gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart

But the very next day, You gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Once bitten and twice shy

I keep my distance but you still catch my eye
Tell me baby do you recognise me?
Well it's been a year, it doesn't surprise me
(Happy Christmas!) I wrapped it up and sent it

With a note saying "I Love You" I meant it
Now I know what a fool I've been
But if you kissed me now I know you'd fool me again
(CHORUS)
(Oooh. Oooh Baby)
A crowded room, friends with tired eyes

I'm hiding from you and your soul of ice
My God I thought you were someone to rely on
Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man undercover but you tore me apart
Oooh OoohNow
I've found a real love you'll never fool me again
(CHORUS)
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart

(Gave you my heart)
A man undercover but you tore me apart
Next yearI'll give it to someone,
I'll give it to someone special
special
someone
someone
I'll give it to someone, I'll give it to someone special
who'll give me something in return
I'll give it to someone
hold my heart and watch it burn
I'll give it to someone, I'll give it to someone special
I've got you here to stay
I can love you for a day
I thought you were someone special
gave you my heart
I'll give it to someone, I'll give it to someone
last christmas
I gave you my heart
you gave it away
I'll give it to someone, I'll give it to someone

Le Tour De Langkawi

At Tanjung Rhu

2 cuties

At Pulau Dayang Bunting, legend of a lovely fairy princess who married an earthly prince. Her first child died shortly after birth. She was so sad and depressed that she buried the child in the crystal clear waters of the lake. Legend says that whoever wanna conceive can come to this place for a swim, and after you go back, you'll conceive

At Pulau Beras Basah

In the cable car, going up to the hill

I was so scared when I was in the cable car, scared of height ma, it was raining and the wind was blowing when we got up the hill
The Twin Tower


sshhh...me in deep thought, but zoom in and see what's in the water ( ki ki )
The Lang Square:



Air Asia delayed, see how boring were we
It was a superb trip. I love Langkawi. Initially decided to go to Langkawi coz it is a place that I never been. And then when I surfed thru the web for the attractions in Langkawi, I recalled the legends of the island and that attracted my cells and my senses and my nerves all over my body.

Legends about Mahsuri -the lady who bled white blood at her execution as a sign of her innocence; the place where fairies used to come down to the waterfall to bathe, the fairy who lost her first lady were indeed an interesting stories and made Langkawi a famous island with full of mysteries.


The Book

I bought a book. The book looked boring and not interesting to me at all at the first place. Since I've bought it, so I just read thru it page by page. Recently, I get myself to digest every single lines in the book, and I found the truth - the real meaning of the book.

Until now, I cant say that I've finished reading the whole book. But, in future, I wish I have the chance to finish the whole book.

I love the book now and I appreciate it.

The best Milo ever had

I used to get sick very often when I was small. Fever, flu were my friends when I was small. But funny thing is I seldom get coughing, even until now, if I fall sick, I'll be attacked by fever or flu virus. And since last year, gastric and migraine are the sickness that I always have nowadays.

I remember when I was roughly around 4-5 years old, there was once when I fell sick seriously and I couldn't eat anything. Even water would make me throw out. And I guess I didnt eat properly for like about 2 days, and one night, when my fever was gone, I woke up in the middle of the night ( if I remember it correctly, it was anout 2am ++ ) and I was very hungry. I woke up my mom and told her that I was hungry. I still remember that my mom asked if I wan to eat something like biscuit, and I told her I just want a cup of milo. So my mom made me a hot cup of milo. I remember clearly that the cup of milo was just a small one, and the cup is made of metal ( Definitely not stainless steel I guess ) which when you hold the cup, you will feel the heat. I drank very fast altho the milo was hot and I finished it up quickly and I asked for another one. My mom was surprised and she confirmed by asking me again if I really wanted for the second one. She made me the second cup of milo and I finished it up as well. And I still remember my mom told me to drink it slowly as she worried I might get hurt due to the heat of the milo. That were the best milo I ever had!!!

I remember Ovaltine was something "hot" when I was small but I just dont like the taste. I prefer milo, milo is still the best.

Now, I grow older and I drink milo almost everyday also, and now milo has this less sugar and low fat 3 in 1 milo and I switched to this type of milo now.

I dunno why I can remember all these very clearly. It was like a stamp which stamped in my brain already. I hope I can remember the taste of the best milo I ever had for the rest of my life just like I remember the love from my mom, my parents ... ...

To be a mother

An ex-uni mate cum housemate sent her new born baby pic to me. This friend of mine, she is 1 year younger than me. And she is now the mother of a 7 weeks old baby. She proudly told me her experience become a mother. A young lady now is busy with her baby, she cant go hanging out now, she hardly go shopping and many things that she used to do, she stop doing them now. But she sounds happy.

I saw another young mother recently. She is my cousin sister, 1 year older than me. She is now the mother of 2 kids. Her husband is rich, so after getting married, she stopped working and on full time basis, she takes care of her kids. Met her during my brother's wedding on last weekend, and had a chat with her. She also told me that she is tied up by her 2 kids as her 2 kids are kinda "sticky" type. Her world now is just purely k.i.d.s.

In contradiction, I feel pity for them. I feel pity for them because I view this incident from my own angle. From their point of view, they are ready to build a family and now they have what they want, certainly they are happy with it.

I have the phobia of being a mother now. I do like to play with kids but I dont wish I'll have my own children soon. I just dont want to be tied up by my own children at this coming future. I have my own dreams to chase after, I still want to pamper myself now.

To be a mother, is something that is far far away from me now.

Never Had a dream come true

On my way back home just now, radio was playing "Never had a dream come true" by S Club 7. My another Fav.

When I listened to this song about 3 years plus ago, my tears dropped automatically. Just now, when I listened to this song, there was no tear in my eyes. Never had a dream come true...here you go...

******************************************************

Ooh...
Everybody's got something they had to leave behind
One regret from yesterday that just seems to grow with time
There's no use looking back or wondering (or wondering)
How it could be now or neither been (or neither been)
All this I know but still I can't find ways to let you go
Chorus
I never had a dream come true
Till that day that I found you
Even though I pretend that I've moved on
You'll always be my baby I
never found the words to say
You're the one I think about each day
And I know no matter where love takes me to
A part of me will always be with you
Somewhere in my memory
I lost all sense of time
And tomorrow can never be
'Cause yesterday is all that fills my mind
There's no use looking back or wondering
How it should be now or neither been (or neither been)
Oh this I know but still I can't find ways to let you go
Chorus
You'll always be the dream that fills my head (Yes you will, say you will, you know you will, baby)
You'll always be the one I know (I'll never forget)
There's no use looking back or wondering (or wondering)
Because love is a strange and funny thing
No matter how I try and try I just can't say goodbye
No no no no
Chorus
A part of me will always be with you...

隐形的翅膀

每一次
都在徘徊孤单中坚强
每一次
就算很受伤也不闪泪光
我知道我一直有双隐形的翅膀
带我飞
飞过绝望
不去想
他们拥有美丽的太阳
我看见每天的夕阳也会有变化
我知道我一直有双隐形的翅膀
带我飞
给我希望
我终于看到所有梦想都开花
追逐的年轻歌声多嘹亮
我终于翱翔
用心凝望不害怕
哪里会有风就飞多远吧
隐形的翅膀
让梦恒久比天长
留一个愿望让自己想象

这一生也在进取
这分钟却挂念谁
我会说是唯独你不可失去
好风光似幻似虚
谁明人生乐趣
我会说为情为爱
仍然是对
谁比你重要成功了败了也
完全无重要
谁比你重要
狂风与暴雨都因你燃烧
一追再追
只想追赶生命里一分一秒
原来多麽可笑
你是真正目标
一追再追
追踪一些生活最基本需要
原来早不缺少
ha......
有了你即使平凡却最重要
好光阴纵没太多
一分钟又如何
会与你共同渡过都不枉过
疯恋多错误更多如能从新做过
我会说愿能为你提前做错
一追再追
只想追赶生命里一分一秒
原来多麽可笑
你是真正目标
一追再追
追踪一些生活最基本需要
原来早不缺少
h a......
只得你会叫我彷佛人群里最重要
有了你即使沈睡了
也在笑

Timing/Destined

It is all about timing, about fate, about our destiny. When he wanted to work it out so much, I pushed him away. When I wanted to work it out, he walked away from my life. Things will never be the same again. I'm really being just a normal human being. I appreciate thing when it is gone.

Dear Santa,

Dear Santa,

Last year Xmas, you gave me one of the most valuable things in life. And this year, you just gave me another valuable thing in life. Thank you, Santa.

My FIRST XMAS GIFT!!!

On the first day of December, I received my first xmas gift!!!!!!!!! It is a "wake up call." Yay!!!

From our point of view

We, being a normal human being, always view things from only our point of view. We dun normally put ourselves in others' shoes and think. If you listen to MYFm, there is a message by this Taiwanes singer, Li Zong Sheng which talks about this. If you listen to the message, you'll know what am I talking about here.
