Back to Malaysia during CNY

I booked the ticket back home today for CNY!

I still can't believe that I am going back to Malaysia during CNY. Thanks for the decreasing oil price so Malaysia airline has cheaper flight back home during CNY. It is such a big release since my parent won't celebrate CNY without any of us. It is pretty sad.

On the other hand, I made a stupid mistake, I booked the flight on 22nd Jan - 12th Feb. Originally was thinking it will be good to go back earlier and spend some time with mum and prepare CNY. But I forgot my dad b'day is on 14th Feb!!! I flight back NZ before his b'day. Feel sorry but will try to do something cool for his birthday before, like making him a dinner.

Yay! It is pretty excited can celebrate CNY at home. Hmm... is thinking to go travelling with them. Mum is thinking to go to Bali but I prefer to HK and China.

Year End Dinner Invitation

After two hours effort of designing and running the town to get stuffs, finally finish making the "Year End Dinner" invitation!!! LOL


It was a random exciting moment with Vivian (online)...

Especially for ~Vivian Kao~

Holiday Plan I- High Tea @ Stamfort Hotel

My YEAR END holiday is coming in 2 weeks. After 5 months of hard work, dealing with 100 interns everyday, I feel really exhausted. I need to recharge my energy and deal with another 100 interns next year.

I really look forward to a relaxing and meaningful holiday. I am sure it will be very good (and expensive). I have so many things I want to do - wineyard tour, tennis, yoga, kickboxing (depends on my back condition), read many books, reflection, meditation, orchestra, movie, music, eat, have an awesome x'mas and New Year 2009, etc.

One of the suggestions Vivian told me today is "HIGH TEA". Remember years ago, I was planning to go High tea with Yohei and Annie. But because of some reason (can't really remember), I could not manage to go! Finally, I can high tea again after such a long time. And it only NZ$20 pp. It looks so good! (annie loo, don't be jealous, I will take more photos and send it to you :P)

Review my blog

Reading my old post just like reading my diary. It is very interesting and enjoyable. Before I start using blogger, I was using friendster blog. I realised that I have been "blogging" since July 2005, by the end of my term, my blog will be 4 years old. Wow! That is cool. :) I would like to continue.

Interesting finding from old post:
1. What am I like
I CHANGED.
I was Planner, Ideas, heads, introvert (2 years ago)
Redo the test again, I am Planner, Facts, Hearts, Introvert.

2. A lot of memories I nearly forgot that happened.

3. Post about my dad's illness. It started from 2006. *pray* Be good!

4. My goal in 2005 but it completely changes after I joined AIESEC. Some interesting posts I wrote about AIESEC. It makes me laugh lol

5. I miss my long hair! Miss my old housemate (13E+D)! Miss India! Miss my friends! --> but still keep moving forward

Another good friend - Vjan is no longer be a single :)

K, I should not stay at home for the whole Sunday. Going to Kelburn Village now and have hot chocolate.

MAYDAY new album

new album from my favourite band MAYDAY - 《后青春期的诗》

你不是真正的快了？
我真的快乐吗？
这也是我最近正在寻找的答案
有人说快乐可以很简单
但也有人说要快乐很难
一个笑话也许能够让人开怀大笑
但我很久都没等到这种笑话了
是我失去了幽默感
还是文化的不同
还是我想太多了

也许我便得太复杂了
渐渐失去简单地美
也许我便得太贪心了
不懂得现在拥有得
但我不想失去享受快乐的能力


主打歌：《你不是真正的快乐》



I love the intro part..

人 群中 哭著 你只想變成透明的顏色
你再也不會夢 或痛 或心動了
你已經決定了 你已經決定了
你 靜靜 忍著 緊緊把昨天在拳心握著
而回憶越是甜 就是 越傷人了
越是在 手心留下 密密麻麻 深深淺淺 的刀割
你不是真正的快樂 你的笑只是你穿的保護色
你決定不恨了 也決定不愛了
把你的靈魂關在永遠鎖上的軀殼
這 世界 笑了 於是你合群的一起笑了
當生存是規則 不是 你的選擇
於是你 含著眼淚 飄飄蕩蕩 跌跌撞撞 的走著
你不是真正的快樂 你的笑只是你穿的保護色
你決定不恨了 也決定不愛了
把你的靈魂關在永遠鎖上的軀殼
你不是真正的快樂 你的傷從不肯完全的愈合
我站在你左側 卻像隔著銀河
難道就真的抱著遺憾一直到老了 然後才後悔著
你值得真正的快樂 你應該脫下你穿的保護色
為什失去了 還要被懲罰呢
能不能就讓 悲傷全部 結束在此刻 重新開始活著

My Saturday + Photos Gallery

The view from my flat

After a week long raining day, finally I am enjoying the sunshine in Wellington. I decided to go to town instead of staying at home and get some vitamin D, which makes me happy :)

I had a feeling I will spend a lot of money today so I decide to call mum to get permission to spend her money lol. I was planning to find a dairy for Vivian as a X'mas present. However, nothing is good enough. I was planning to buy a bag, but nothing is nice. At the end I bought nothing, except I accidently find a "lonely planet - travel journey". I was so excited!!!! It is not an easy decision to make though.

Besides, I spent few hours at Gloria Jeans - was sitting on the comfortable couch with ham & cheese crossaint and a cup of Mocha Truffle - reading my book. Best way to spend my weekend.
And now I am listen to 988 and uploading my blog. Having some good time with Malaysian joke & nice songs :) Miss HOME lah

Randomly appear in Wellington city - "double decker... double decker..." - remind me of

On the way back home - Wellington City

Good friend falls in love ...

Friday night, sitting at home and decide not to party this weekend (be responsible for my back!). As usual, I would like to "update" my knowledge about my friends' life around the world, especially those in Malaysia. The best way is went through everyone blog, facebook and chatting whoever is online.

I find one of the most excited news for a long time - Hoon is going out with someone.. I am just guessing now.. Can't wait to find it out... hahaha It is so nice to know some good friends find their "love" and always want to hear the story. Really miss the gossip time with you guys :)

Not sure why, I don't feel happy for a very long time. I found everything not interesting. I am not sure what I want to do next, which bother me the most. I don't find job interesting anymore. I don't find party is fun. I don't want to do anything and don't feel excited. I don't want to talk, I don't want to laugh. I am weird and I think I am sick!

Until I read this book, it makes me understand a lot of thing. However, I still not sure what's wrong with me. I always feel happy when friends around me, doing a lot of stuffs, etc. But I am not, and I am afraid. I hope I will be fine after conference, road trip and holiday in Auckland.

I want to be happy again. Happily inside!

Hospital "road trip"

"Unfortunately, back pain is a very common problem. Over 85 per cent of the population will suffer back pain over the course of their life."

Since Dec 2007 (after the Singapore trip), I have my back problem until now. It has been a year. It was getting better last two m"onths by reducing travel and carrying heavy stuffs. However, three days ago (after party hard on Friday night, lying on the bed and watching LOST for the whole Saturday), when I pick up my clothe on the floor, I "FLICK" my back!!! It was a massive pain!

I though it will be better after few days but today after I went to the toilet, I could not sit down on my chair. It was another big pain!!!! And my leg starts hurting. I was quite worry so I decided to go to Hospital. And this is how my hospital "road trip" start....

1. The taxi driver suggested "Back to Living Chiropractic" instead of hospital. Since it is nearer, then why not. Once we arrive, the tax left, we realised that place close.

2. Back to original plan, we went to nearest hospital, which is in Newtown. When I arrive the ENA, they suggest I should go to the other place since they can't really do anything other than giving me PANADOLS! Kill me

3. With all this pain, we went to the other hospital with TBI (The Back Institute). Finally something related to back pain. So after this hassle and pain, I finally get some treatment. The best thing is something called ACC pay for all the expenses LOL.. I don't even know what is ACC stand for. Who care ...

So what now:
1. I have to do exercise for my back every single hour
2. Tomorrow I have to go back and learn another exercise for the weekend
3. Tuesday, another appointment.

Actually is quite lucky that I aware the important of my back problem. Hopefully I will get better before the conference next week and also the two week road trip... And I can really enjoy my summer and xmas without back pain and feel young again!

But now i feel like shit and painful :(
