Work, Passion & Interest

Every individuals have their own sets of definition about WORK, PASSION, & INTEREST...

Majority of people will say: 'you can't have work, passion, & interest together'. Work is more like a career to everyone and basically elder generations will highlight to us, that we have to work hard toearn a living. There is no such things as passion / interest that can bring you fortune. But around us, there are lots of people that have passion & interest which brings them fortune. i.e. designers, singers, actors, writters, professional footballers, tennis players, swimmers, chefs, bar tenders, and etc.

In Chinese saying, they say 'every profession is a profession' ，‘行行出状元’。 This is the word that drive me to do all sorts of stuffs. I understand that, there are no limitations to whatever you want to do. It is only the matter of priority. Priorities are individual as well, no one can fix a priority to you or me either. Only me myself can measure my own weights and to find out which is my priorities and duties.

I shall say that, people that work with their passion & interest can really bring them far away of their destinations. They are more happy and have more satisfaction when they achieve something small. No one knows what will they find in their future... Things change and even mentality changes as well while we age. '世事无绝对'nothing is fix in this world.

Sometimes is not about how much we earn, but is about what we want to achieve in life. But of course, we need to have a very basic income to maintain our daily life. In my own opinion, I shall say that when we do things relates to our passion & interest, we are evetually creating a value in our own life chapter. We are creating memories or maybe histories to leave behind. I am currently building my own lifestyle, which is against most of my related elderlies '长辈'。

But any how, I understand their worries and care. Everyone have their own thoughts and their own decision to make. Cos end of the day, it is our own responsibility to live on life. No one to blame, is our own choice. After making that call(decision), the most important thing is we always look front and never look back.

Work, Passion & Interest can be balanced ! Challenge myself to the limits !

If I was a piece of a car, I would be the… I would want to be the body of the car... can be pampered by my owner... and make them proud...hehehhe

If I was told one day that I would have to give up either 1) anything chocolate OR 2) ever seeing the beach again, for the rest of my life, which one will I give up?
If I have a choice, I would not give up both cos I love chocolates and natural environment...if this is the case, I will have to give up chocolate then....cos beach is part of mother nature..

Singapore is good for… their Christmas decorations...especially at Orchard Road....

Ratatouille Trailer

Yeah!!! This cartoon is showing very the soon... Can't wait to watch the little 'me' running around the kitchen with excitement and thrilled feeling; with all the knives flying around, rolling pins smashing towards 'me', then end up in a jar... hehehehe...

the whole scene in the kitchen really giving me all the flash backs during my time in college. Me and my classmates were having kitchen practicals... Kitchen to us at that time is like a playground or paradise to us. We fool around with raw items e.g. fish, chicken without head, duck, lamb rack, and etc. Showing all funny and nonsense poses... It's normal to see pots and pans flying around and hearing people shouting here and there. throwing food around...hehehehe...

We tast everything which we think are edible... we come up with our own sauces, food presentation, and our own dish. LOL... We got a lot of 'si fus' around... Chef Bala, Chef Norizan, Chef Kartina, Chef Pat, and etc... Chef Bala is the man... Don't mess with him, cos you will loose your sense of hearing for at least 2mins.... He can really shout and is quite weird cos he has a very thin body. Just Kidding.... All our chefs are nice people and they are sporting, they will always fool around with us after class...and during class sometimes... Our F&B lecturers are fun too and sporting as well.... Ms MunYee, Mr Patrick, Mr Reuben, Mr Tay Boon, Tengku Murad, and Puan Siti.... Wow... in this cartoon can really bring back so much of memories.... hehhehehe...

Frankly speaking, France do have nice food...as what 'i' say in the movie line... hehehehe... e.g croissant, gateaux au chocolate, confit du canard, and etc.... the service wise will be fantastic as well... cos before meal, you will say 'Bon apetite'...

Till then, will meet you all the cinema on the 16th August 2007...

Never be great to be back to your own homeland...

Wow... It's so nice to be home again but this trip is quite short. Only back for 4 days, just for the weekends. Being a non qualified tour guide around Kuching town with my friends. Luckily my dad is there to assist... hahaha...

I had lots of good food there and I really eat non stop during the 4 days stay. I had Laksa, Barbeque Pork Ribs from Barbeque Specialist, Open Air 'sio bee', my mum's 'bak chang', BING Cafe's White Summer & Tiramisu (BEST Tiramisu in Town), Sugarcane Coconut from 'Song Kheng Hai', and many many more delicious delicacies. Take a whole page to talk about food... Some of the food in my checklist was not being achieved and will have to wait until my next trip... LOL

Lots of changes and development going on in Kuching. I really going to miss some of the old buildings because they are going to be teared down soon within this few years for future development of the waterfront. Everywhere is under construction. Luckily can take the opportunity to grab some snap shots at the old wet market locatted at the end of the waterfront opposite the courthouse, with my 2nd cousin uncle and family. That stall serve a good taste of coffee and 'teh c'... money just can't buy back that kind of environment, it took so many years to build that kind of environment.

This trip also get to meet up with my God Parents and get to chat with few of my close buddies. Everyone had a good laugh and enjoy themselves during the dinner time.

Me, my dad and Uncle David, Jason, & Chaya went for the International Rainforest Musical Festival in Sarawak Cultural Village. We arrived quite early before the show starts. We manage to move around Sarawak Cultural Village and visit each and different Tribes' Houses. The video that will be shown below, is actually a recording of mine while we visit the Rumah Orang-Ulu. This is actually an unexpected scene. The uncle is actually preparing his dinner and he was taking care of the fire behind the house. When we get to know he knows how to playthe Sape, we ask him to play and he willingly to show us.

The environment of the whole performance was fantastic and everyone was dancing and having lots of fun.On that night, there a few of the performance that I like which is the 'Sape' played by Jerry Kamit, the Madagascar group, and Blowpiper from Scotland.

During this trip, I really walk with my friends along the long stretch of Kuching Waterfront and Jalan Pandungan which is a very nice thing to do. Why??? Most of the time when we drive through that area, there are actually a lot of things are hidden up and we intend to miss it. The environment of the locals living and working lifestyle and relationship as a Sarawakian.

I've made through my Degree...thanks to you all out there.

Yahoo..!!! After 4 years of study in Taylor's College, at last i've made it through. Now I'm so relief due to there's no more exams and assignments to woried about. Hahaha.. Time really flies, and most of us are going to go on our seperate ways. Some people start woking, some people continue Master Programme, some just chilling around, some sourcing for jobs and etc. I'm really satisfied of what I have now. Eventhough I didn't really score a very good grade but I think what I have now is more than enough. As long as I'm holding a Bachelor Degree on hand.
Luckily that I have my family and my close friends that help me go through this bumpy and slippery road.

While doing my Dissertation, I'm really struggling but my family and friends are there to help me. Even my friend from UK motivates and hold me up when I'm down in the mud. I really take this opportunity to thank each and every one of them. If not because of you guys, I won't made it through my Dissertation.

Strive harder and never give up until the last minute. Congratulations to those who made it through as well...!!!

Surprised Birthday Party - 24.3.07

I don't know how to put this in words because it's a very nice feeling in my heart and memories... My group of nice, loving, caring, naughty, active, playful friends...throw me a surprise party @ Living Arts Studio. Friends from Living Arts, Bantus, and the club really gave me a night of surprise...
The whole thing starts from my friend telling me that she got problem with her relationship and that's how i fall into her trap and their plans... then we went for bowling, only me and her. That's a good distraction and i'm so concentrated to help her and to calm her down. Telling her not to be so down, and think positively... after bowling, went back to the studio because someone didn't take the padlock key...so 'dai tao ha'...hehehehe... we went up to the studio and this time Jordan left and then when Yike heard the noisy music she became so frustrated and that is the time they lure me to the rooftop....and i was so terrified due to heard some noise and I thought there might be someone up there cause it's very dark... I saw shadow and there are plastic bags on the floor, i thought might be drugs addicts or glue sniflers....
Then I told Teresa and Yike to leave the place now, but Yike hold my my arm so tight and Teresa being so Hero...to check it out..Then my name was shouted and when i walk towards Teresa's voice, the only thing i saw was a group of people and 1 cake. That was the time they got me... i felt so touched. After that, we had a 'birthday roda'...'ass whupping session' and is damn pain mann....hehehehe..... this time was my first birthday roda, and i played with most of them who played Capoeira... the Axe..was not too bad... the party went on until 2am++...
Onece agian, I would like to take this opportunity to say THANK YOU to all my friends who were there for me and for those who can't make it for the party, everything ware appreciated... Until 23yrs, this is my 1st surprise party and this is the best and I will never forget it...this memory will stay within me forever... I Love you all....

Tiring of Travelling... from PJ to KL

It's really tiring to travel from PJ to KL by public transportation during weekdays. There are certain peak hours that I have to warn you guys out there not to be the victims.... because every morning i have to go through all those 'shitty experience'... every morning smell nice and being fresh and wish to have a nice day but when reaching the train station and looking iinto the train, i will have a bad feeling that my day will be ruined if i go on to the train. My instinct are never wrong about that. Because after goin on the train and reaching the hotel, i really smell like 'shit' and sweating lile a 'paip bocor' (leaking paip).... due to the bad ventilation in the train and the people were standing back to back. Sometimes can't really breathe. This is really a bad practice and culture. They are not considering enough to others and most of them are 'kia su' man.... the train is alos not efficient and the designing of the chairs in the KTM is really not a good planning. Sigh...!!!
Don't know when will the government restructure the train service and make everything convenient to the public. Eveything is just not convenient to everyone.. Sometimes I really pity those people that are queuing up for the train. others just cut queue and pushing the inocent into the train... Imagine you are standing, and people behind you are pushing you into the train and then will be squeezed.... arrgghh....!!!!
Damn...i don't know how long will can I stand this kid of environment and situation.... That's why wvery morning I hope for the best to come... sometime, avoiding is not a good solution. Anyone can suggest anything to me or share your ideas with me. Till then, peace out and hope to hear from y'all...
