BEAUTY

Hello there! I just linked this blog to Google+

This blog was around since year 2007. It was a experiment for me to own a blog and store my writing but it hasn't been very active. After contemplating for a few weeks about the consequences, I decided to link this blog to Google+. 

In the beginning the idea scares me a bit, because linking your blog to Google+ meaning creating more traffic, getting an audience to read the blog. I'm not quite sure the blog is ready to show the 'world' yet. All these questions went around my head, is the writing mature enough, is the style of the page attractive enough and will people really read the blog? After all that self questioning, I thought if I don't try I will never know. In addition, the book I was reading said trying something new actually make people happier, the unknown, the not sure what to expect make people nervous but also bring excitement. It sounds like something I will look forward. So it all sounds kind of positive and tempting, and here I am. 

Making this blog public encourages me to take my writing more seriously. I want to write something people will benefit from reading and remember. First of all, it needs a theme, a direction. Travel and photography came to mind, but already so many experts posting about that, I don't want to feel pressured from the start. However I would love to include those topics, because I too enjoy travel and photography very much. So! I need to write something meaningful and will make people feel good thus happy. 

Recently, I did a personal strength assessment, my top value turned out to be Beauty to my surprise. I like the idea so much and that will be my blog going public theme BEAUTY! It makes me feel vanity and I like that. Now I could proudly announce: my top value is BEAUTY! (laughing happily out loud) 

Anything beautiful and inspiring are possible to be included here and we should feel good while we are reading them. Yes, we, including me. Beautiful things should be shared.

Enjoy your read! 

Choices 選擇

We constantly making decisions instantly on what we want. What to wear, what to eat, who to send messages to, to have coffee or tea. But when comes to bigger decision, such as who to date, which property to purchase, where to spend Christmas holidays, they seems like a different ball game. We contemplated harder, longer, sometimes avoid thinking about it altogether.

Why is it so? 

What is the fear? 

Afraid of making mistakes?

It is understandable that people have doubts. But I think we do need passion and spontaneity and feeling excited when making those bigger choices. Those processes make us take bigger breaths too. And most importantly you have to feel comfortable and happier after making the choice.

I used to worry so much about my decisions and choices, so scare that I stuck with them for the rest of my life. But thank God that is not always true. Life is so fluid that you don't know what it is going to offer you the next minute. So stop worrying and live happily everyday. 

*we are what we choose to be.

What is the next best thing to happen to you?

My coach asked me the question on Sunday, two days has passed, I'm still toying the question in my mind.

Why is it so hard for me to make a wish or promise to myself? What am I afraid of? Do I not trust myself? What do I really want, really...

I'm afraid of disappointment. The more we wish for the chances of being disappointed is higher. So maybe the safest way is to follow the flow. Interesting enough today's horoscope said the following: "There's a trajectory of truth to maintain today. If you try to go against the flow, you'll have a difficult time achieving your goals. You're much better off setting your sights on something downstream so that you can utilize the incredible force that already has a great deal of momentum behind it. There's no need to reinvent the wheel on a day like this."

Sometimes it might not be a bad thing to have others to control the wheel. I've more time to enjoy the sight when I'm not behind the wheel.

Listening to my favourite album by Chyi, completing the love language test, finding my peace from the songs and feeling grounded that I am responding to my heart. The perfect way to conclude my day. 

一天中会遇到很多不同的人、事、噪音、让我们的视线模糊，几乎忘记了自己的方向。

不要急，下班了记得留一些时间给自己，归正。把头发、眼睛擦干，把杂乱琐碎拨开，静静的听听你的心。临睡前灌溉心中的爱和热诚，早上醒来带着她出门！美好的一天在等待着你的出发！

对自己说我爱你 xoxo 

Travel parties! 结伴同游 1

Visiting places or most people call it travelling is always in my system. When I was younger and travelling seems like a rich men lifestyle I could only read about places from books or from travel channels on TV.

So, in 2011, the urge of such longing desire kicks in, the year marked the beginning of me doing the rich men activities! And I wasn't even rich though.

We:



Cat Pang (in the middle), a person I met from school, has great traveling experience and has also picked up photography because of her baby girl.

Charles Jong (on the left), another person I met ages ago, teacher cum close friend, studied photography in college and has been clicking away whenever he packed his bag to travel the world.

Got together with the idea of exploring the other part of Malaysia that we know very little about. We drove from Kuala Lumpur we go to Kuala Gandah, Pahang - The Elephant Sanctuary, then continue to Lembing. After Lembing we moved on to Kuala Terengganu.

This picture was taken with a strange camera setting, but it looks great from the screen at the time.

Easter 复活节

Easter has became a holiday breaks and family get together event. This year, with a last minute decision we spent some time together. It's quite an unusual event with enjoyable conversations and delicious cuisine presented by a husband and a father of two.

Here are some pictures to share. 

隨想

累的時候甚麼都想不明白.
從前的果斷和清醒不見了.

是勇氣拋棄了我?
還是, 怕輸不起?

如果喜歡一個人遲疑不絕
那麼倒不如放手, 擁抱自由!
喜歡一個人, 一件事其實不用太複雜.
輕鬆自在是唯一祕訣.

我還是想想未來
卻擔心未來剩下不多
想來想去..
還是去睡覺
明天應該是喝紅酒的時候 :)
