is the world around me mobilize or immobilize?

Maybe I grew up in a world where things always stays the same, 1 month, 1 year, 10 years.. and still no change. This makes me feel that it's sort of like a death sentence like once you're doing it, you have no escape and it will forever be doomed to be your routine.

Is it because these people just prefer to stay in their comfort zone or is it because they don't even stand a chance to make a change?

I guess it's up to me to explore, whatever it is I am willing it to give it a try before calling it quit. I don't want to be a blind sheep that live on one side of the pasteur only.

Who knows 10 years later I will writing another blog in respond to this blog to answer the question....

so far in KL




I just realised KL is a place for year end vacation. When everyone is working hard hard hard, I'm chilling hard hard hard. I feel kinda guilty for it.

I am anything but being productive.

Oh well this will not last long. One more month and I am up and going on the run all the time. So let me pamper myself with food and sleep for now..

My Part Time Job - Babysitting a puppy


Hi all,

I am employed without salary so I am basically doing some sort of community service or voluntary job. My job is picking up poo, cleaning pee, feeding pup and walking him.

I have always dreamt of having my own pup but now that I have, it's kinda like the dream that you never want it to come true.

The main problem is that Noobie (pup's name) is not trained to control it's pee, so it PEES everywhere it goes IN THE HOUSE. I am in desperate need to teach him some basic dog manners, anyone with any suggestions? In return I will give you some scooby snacks..ops. I mean yummy snacks ;)

p/s: He is just 4 months old.

Kay Elle

It's been 4 days I have been back in my hometown - the only truly Asia - Malaysia!
So much so have been happening since I came home and most of it involves eating. I have a strong feeling I am going to gain much more weight that I did in Melbourne. But.. whatever! It's holiday and this is KL. This is what people like me does.. EAT, SLEEP, SHOP.

under one roof


It is often said that luck is highly needed to get a good place to stay and good housemates. Well for me first time was a lucky charm as I get a really reasonable accommodation which is convenient and affordable but most importantly I have really kind and friendly housemates which make my stay in melbourne even more meaningful. Celeste and Alejandro is their name, we have a multicultural thing going on in 193/416 St Kilda Road. One from China, one from Columbia and one from Malaysia.

I will definitely miss my stay at this lovely place I once called home.

Seems like just yesterday but at a different place


Today was a lovely day to start with. I had breakfast with Natasha, Emy and Syarlene, my three high school friends that I had not been in contact with since high school which is like 5 years ago. It felt just like yesterday we were still in the same school and class together doing things teenage do just that we are now all grown ups studying any different places around the world, doing different things and leading different life and ironically meeting up at the same place at one point of time. We had a good catch up session, bringing up those time when we were in high school, gossiping about how "classmates" are. It was lovely catching up with old times, one of those moments which is so sentimental. Hope to see you girls soon in KL again and we'll have a lovely girls day out again.

Love in Time of Cholera


The story speaks of a "faithful and loyal" Florentino Ariza who spent the rest of his life trying to gain the attention of his one and only beloved Fermina Daza even though she kinda dumped and rejected him again and again. Despite that, the story not only evolves around a love-hate routine of drama. It has some heart wrenching and alot of lustful and obscene moments, definitely not for those below the age of 15.

Seriously, would a guy wait for the girl he love for 53 years, 7 months, 11 days and nights? I know it's a book, but can such act be defined as an everlasting love? I'm pretty sure this is every girl's dream come true.

Wait, not only that how there be a book without a movie after it. YES there is a movie about it as well..

Anyways, the climax of the story starts pretty late so don't expect it to be interesting at first. A book worth to read for those who love romance novel.

p/s: The book is by Gabriel Garcia Marquez.

The Final Moments of 2010 in Melbourne

Tomorrow I will be having my last exam for 2010 and I am done with academics for the year. I was reading my notes and I decided to let my imagination run wild for a while.
I imagine my room being empty as I moved out everything, I imagine how I used every space in this room, how this room have been sharing the past 10 months with me, how I decorated every interior from scratch. My first room away from home.

I miss this single bed which could create miracle of having two person squeeze into it. I miss my lovely windows facing the balcony of a beautiful sea view, I miss the funny sliding door which has infinite holes in it and is connected not by a latch but a plastic striper. I am going to miss this room. and all the memories that was build in it.

Despite that, it would be good to leave this room behind and search for a new room. A change of environment will keep me away from the nostalgic feeling that could be unbearable I believe.

Nevertheless, I will carry the memories of the room with me, everywhere I go...
