我的新宝贝

感觉真的很奇怪。

Survey了不少时间，买或不买？买？不买？

会犹豫不决，是因为最近花了不少钱在保健，当银行的存款数目一直往下掉 + 没有经济来源，我就愈感压力。

尤其是在现在这样的情况，是应该都把钱存起来，只用在应该花费的地方，而不是花在不必要的物品。

好了，原本已经决定不买了，因为暂时买不到便宜货。

那里知道，星期天的一个广告，我的心又泛起了涟漪。

买或不买？

好吧，就去看看！

价钱OK就买，钱是可以赚回来的。

好啦，问了价钱，心里又再打战了！

这是一笔不小的数目，一下子一次过拿出来用掉，真的很心疼，不舍得。

就买吧，我那么想要，又有兴趣要学多一些。

现在买就可以立刻用了咯！

好了，决定买了，就不要再想别处或以后买可以便宜一些，多花的就通过教补习再赚回来吧！

要去买的时刻，我却又放慢脚步了。

奇怪的感觉来了！

我很紧张耶，好像不能相信我所梦寐以求的事情终于要实现了。

很紧张，没能够立刻就冲进取去买，却在外面坐了一会儿。

这个时候，我最希望身边的人可以鼓励鼓励我一下，或者cheer up我一下。

Ooooi。。。不是决定要买了吗，快点进去买啦，再拖parking又要给多一点了。

好啦，好啦，最后是我自己崔促我自己了。

1，2，3。。。 购买的过程就简略吧。

新宝贝是我的了！我有了新宝贝！

回家后，我就开始啃manual booklet。

奇怪奇怪，没有很兴奋喔。

可能还在自责当中，为什么花那么多钱。有或者是后悔花超过预算的数额。

好了，累了，睡觉吧，明天会更好！

今天起床第一件事，摸摸宝贝，设定一些基本settings。

吃过早餐，皮开始痒了。

原本要先看过一轮manual booklet才开始实习的嘛！

随便吧，爽的感觉开始来了。

这里拍一下，那里拍一下。

兴奋，喜悦，开心，满足，雀跃，该有的感觉现在全都来了！

我现在开始会很忙了。

忙写论文，忙explore我的宝贝，忙教补习！

最重要还是，凡事感恩 :)

 

LOVE 的意义

爱情使者丘比特问爱神阿佛洛狄：“LOVE 的意义在哪里？”

阿佛洛狄说：“‘L’代表 Listen， 爱就要无条件无偏见地倾听对方的需求，并且予以协助。

‘O’代表 Obligate， 爱需要不断地感恩，付出更多爱的义务与责任，灌溉爱的禾苗。

‘V’代表 Valued，爱就是展现你的尊重，表达体贴，真诚的鼓励，发自内心的赞美。

‘E’代表 Excuse，爱就是仁慈地对待，宽恕对方的缺点和错误，接受对方的全部。”

情人节快乐！

天天都快乐！！

European Jewels Day 4 Part 1

It has been awhile since my last post about my Europe trip.

Now, blogging has been made easier with Windows Live Writer.

Previously, I need to process my photos using another software, upload them and blog online.

Now, I can process my photos and blog one shot using this program.

And the best thing is, I can do this offline :)

I can pen down a few lines whenever my thoughts come.

It's so convenient and I believe that I will be able to update my blog more frequently from now onwards :)

Thanks TP for recommending this program to me.

Ok, now let's continue with my European Jewels trip.

It's day 4 and from Munich, we are heading to Innsbruck, the capital of the Tyrol, Austria followed by Venice, Italy.

Day 4

Munich, Germany --> Innsbruck, Austria --> Venice, Italy

I mentioned in the previous post that the breakfast we had on day 4 (at Tryp Munich Hotel) was the best and tastiest throughout the trip. Show your the photo now :)

We have a great variety of food, especially warm food (compared to other hotels which only served breads, croissants, cold ham, fruits and cereals).

Here, we have different type of sausages, ham, scramble egg, potatoes and etc.

I think they have different types of breads and croissants too but sorry, I am not not going to eat these giving that I can opt for warm and delicious meat :p

Too bad we didn't have much time to savour the breakfast coz as usual, we have to catch up with the tight schedule. It was 5.47am when I took my breakfast :s

Then, it's time to board the coach and lay my butt on the seat for hours again.

The buildings @ Munich.

6.35am

Scenery along the journey.

7.04am

Look at the snow covered on top of the mountain.

8.17am

8.29am

We are at the town of Innsbruck, Austria now.

8.30am

8.35am

It's a beautiful town with mountains around.

Snow starts covering the top of the mountain.

If I were here few weeks later, I would be having fun with snow!

The buildings @ Innsbruck

Note the 'thing' hanging from the wall.

Every shop has a different one.

It's unique.

Swarovski @ Innsbruck

This is the original retail shop.

As expected, lots of crystals in the shop.

More crystal.

And more.

It just makes you want to buy some crystals here, since you are surrounded by crystals.

Even the hanger knob on the door in the wash room is made of crystals.

Neh, the hanger knob that you use to hang your hand bag when you want to pee.

The 'thing' for Swarovski shop.

This is just one of the pretty crystal dog among the others.

Despite being surrounded by lots of beautiful crystal, I only spent Euro 9.50 for a pair of Swarovski crystal earring. That's the cheapest thing that I like which I considered affordable :)

Enough for crystal, let's explore abit this beautiful little town by the mountain.

See the mountain is so near.

What a nice picturesque town.

More buildings.

9.45am

Look at the seat cushion, so colourful.

Must be very happy sitting on it :p

It's 9.50am.

Time to leave and continue our journey for the day.

Bye bye Innsbruck.

Now, we are going to drive over the Brenner Pass to Italy.

Stunning Dolomites' alpine scenery coming on our way...

To be continue...

Cooking is Fun :)

It was the first Sunday of 2009.

We decided to do some cooking.

Haven't been doing this for so long.

My last time was during 2007 when I was at Europe.

Muahaha :p

After shopping for the ingredients, we headed back to the chef's house to do the cooking.

Well, I was the helper not the chef ;)

But, I will be the chef next time!

I wash and cut the vegetables, I open the can, I wash dishes, I prepared the drinks and bla bla bla :p

Ok, let me show you what we have got.

The linguine

I like linguine :)

Thicker than spaghetti but thinner than fettuccini.

Just right in the middle!

Yellow and red capsicum

(Stirred fry with olive oil)

Of course you can also use green capsicum.

Garlic pepper seasoning with grinder

(RM9.89)

I super duper love this.

While the chef was cooking, I sprinkled some of this on the plain linguine and it was so delicious!!!

I discovered that I can savour the pasta just with this magical seasoning in hand ;)

Italian seasoning

(RM3.49 per bottle from Tesco)

Personally, I don't quite like this, it has strong favour.

Garlic pepper seasoning still rocks!

Steamed broccoli and cauliflower

The chef sprinkled some salt on it.

Tasty!

Italian sausage with paprika powder, garlic pepper and Italian seasoning

(Stirred fry with olive oil)

Yellow onion

(Stirred fry with olive oil)

Put all the ingredients together (except broccoli and cauliflower) and mixed with extra virgin olive oil.

TADA~~~The initial product.

The chef wasn't very satisfied because it was abit dry.

While the chef was preparing the cabonara sauce, I was enjoying a drink :p

A cool and refreshing honey lemon drink :)

Not forgetting the salad consisting baby tomato, corn, romaine lettuce.

Mixed with extra virgin oil and lime juice.

Simple and nice.

TADA again~~~The final product, with cabonara sauce.

Buono appetito :)

(It's direct translation from French 'Bon appetit', not sure if it's correct. I figure that this dish is Italian so I should be saying in Italian right? haha)

Merry Christmas + Happy New Year + Happy Holidays :)

It's Christmas today, Merry Christmas to all :)

Despite being busy or stress with all the things in our daily life, everyone seems to be in holiday mood during this year end round.

It's time to reflect and flash back what we have been through, what we have learnt, what we have been giving and receiving, what we have achived, what we have done through out the year.

At the same time, let's look forward for a greater year ahead!!!
More wisdom, more health, more happiness and more wealth :p

I wish you a Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year :)

I will end this entry with one of my favorite picture.
Just took it last week @ Cameron Highlands.

Congratulations to Jacq :)

Tada, as promised...

All the 美女 leng luis in WHITE :)

说好的幸福呢

好久都没有留意周杰伦的歌了。
以前还蛮喜欢他最初的作品，但过后就没那么fancy了。
这一次他的这首新歌，我听起来特别有感觉，所以就post在这里和大家分享。

说好的幸福呢



作词：方文山　作曲：周杰伦

你的绘画凌乱著　在这个时刻
我想起喷泉旁的白鸽　甜蜜散落了
情绪莫名的拉扯　我还爱你呢
而你断断续续唱著歌　假装没事了

时间过了 走了 爱情面临选择
你冷了　倦了　我哭了
离开时的不快乐 你用卡片手写著
有些爱只给到这　真的痛了

怎麼了　你累了　说好的　幸福呢
我懂了　不说了　爱淡了　梦远了
开心与不开心一一细数著　你再不捨
那些爱过的感觉都太深刻　我都还记得

你不等了　说好的　幸福呢
我错了　泪乾了　放手了　后悔了
只是回忆的音乐盒还旋转著　要怎麼停呢

A Year Ago

Last year, this day, for the first time ever, I am heading to Europe!!!
For 2 and a half months!!!
I have never been to continent so far away before.
I am very excited.
In fact, till now, when I am recalling the days, I am still feeling so excited.
Oh I miss the days when i was there.

My first stop was Stockholm, Sweden.
Never in my mind that I will have chance to leave my footstep in this Scandinavia country, which seems so far away from Malaysia.
Thanks to my brother, I managed to see this beautiful, advanced and expensive country :)

Times flies and it have been a year.
These days I have been thinking alot about the days I spent in Stockholm, London and also the European Jewels trip with my mum.
Can't believe that it have been a year!!! So so fast!!!
I am not sure when will be the next time I will be going to Europe again.
Nonethelss, I will never forget the lifetime experiences that I gained when I was there last year :)

Have I Told You Lately That I Love You

Have I Told You Lately (that I Love You)

Have I told you lately that I love you
Have I told you there's no one else above you
Fill my heart with gladness
Take away all my sadness
Ease my troubles that's what you do

For the morning sun and all its glory
Greets the day with hope and comfort too
You fill my life with laughter
Somehow you make it better
Ease my troubles that's what you do

There's a love that's divine
And it's yours and it's mine
Like the sun
At the end of the day
We should give thanks and pray to the One to the One

Have I told you lately that I love you
Have I told you there's no one else above you
Fill my heart with gladness
Take away all my sadness
Ease my troubles that's what you do

There's a love that's divine
And it's yours and it's mine
Like the sun
At the end of the day
We should give thanks And pray to the One to the One

Have I told you lately that I love you
Have I told you there's no one else above you
You fill my heart with gladness
Take away all my sadness
Ease my troubles that's what you do

Takeaway all my sadness
Fill my life with gladness
Ease my troubles that's what you do

Take away all my sadness
Fill my life with gladness
Ease my troubles that's what you do

I can't find 品冠's version so here is this version by Rod Stewart.


Are you going to tell me that?

Home

HOME IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PLACE IN THE WORLD :)

I couldn't agree more with the statement.

Home is the only place that we want to head to after a tiring day.
Even if it is a day with full of joy, we will also go back to our home at the end of the day.

It is so important to have a home with people that you love and love you ;)

于众不同 The Special One

俗语说：“万绿丛中一点红”。

这张照片所表达的却是“万红丛中一点绿”！ 大自然的奥妙哦 :)


摄于15.11.2007 @ Green Park, London.

A green leaf alone with yellow leaves all around it.
I didn't purposely arrange the leaves in such a way oh.
I was strolling along the park, saw it and snapped it ;)
This is the beauty of the mother earth.

Statue at Tallinn

A statue @ Tallinn, Estonia.


You can feel how loving the two people are through this piece of art.
I can't read and don't understand the description though :p
This is my own interpretation. They are a loving, intimate couple, both spiritually and physically. That's the highest level a couple can achieve, I think.

There are also other statues scatter around the park. I don't know exactly the name of the park. This park is located around the Tallinn Old Town, just beside the main gate entrance.

This is what I like about Europe. Arts are everywhere.
I love strolling around and allow myself to blend into the atmosphere :)

激动的一刻

星期三早上十点半，我守在电视机前观看北京奥运机械操女子团体赛决赛。
我目不转睛的看着中国队的六位金花尽全力的去表现自己。
除了程菲以外，其他五位小妮子都未曾参加过奥运会。

(Picture from http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/)

比赛一路走来，都分别由中国队或美国队领先。
不到最后一分钟都不会知道金牌会落在哪一队的手里。
赛情真的好紧张，当美国队以微分领先的时候，我在心里也拼命的为中国队打气！

程菲是中国队在最后一个项目-自由体操最后出场的选手。这个时候的美国队已经完成比赛，只待程菲的一跳就可以知道鹿死谁手了。
此刻的程菲顶着巨大的压力，之前在平衡木出了差错，如果现在再有任何差错的话，金牌可能就会拱手于人了。

我的心在扑通扑通的跳。
如果你也有观看当天的现场直播，我相信你不会忘记程菲在跳自由体操的时候，激动的神情和懈力的表现。
她做到了！

(Picture from http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/)

中国队得到了有史以来第一枚奥运机械操女子团体赛金牌！！！
我由衷的为她们感到骄傲。

(Picture from http://en.beijing2008.cn/)

说真的，对于她们勇夺金牌，我的感觉也蛮激动的。每一次再看到重播的时候，我的内心都会泛起一阵涟漪，我真的为她们的表现感到很光荣！

Ps：这是我第一篇全华语的文章。感觉上我的华语好像怪怪的，是退步了吗？
你有任何意见吗？

Happy Birthday To My Mother

A blessed birthday 08 August 2008!
We had a great time celebrating my mum's birthday on last Friday while watching the opening ceremony of Beijing Olympic :)



I am not a cake person but seriously this TIRAMISU cake (by Suchan @ Section 11) is tastefully delicious! I took 2 pieces and this is a new record for me :p
