it cost me RM50 to have it fixed. Luckily, it wasn't cracked and far beyond repair (knocking)... otherwise, it would have cost me even more, you do the math, a new set of this sport rim~ RM7.5-8k, my used one, RM3k.

... in a lazy afternoon

Well, the damage has been done and there is nothing much that i can do now except lodging police report and waiting for a body knocking (yes, the body frame was deformed abit) repair work.

I have to wait for ~ a month before i can flirt with my KNN again... I am gonna miss my KNN, dearly... :"(

Well, this is the consequence of harrassing my KNN....

It has to be towed away, eventually...

 Here's the pictures to share with you all...

 Thanks Honey! For you hardwork, baking shortcakes for me as Valentines' gift! This is one of the sweetest gift ever!

and my gift to her, other than a surprise nokia handphone (yes, ikan, we bought the same handphone!), i bought her a bouquet of tulips as shown below :)

Honey showed this to me this afternoon. It's Jonathan's 1st Ejaan (spelling test)...

 ...i was like laughing till jaw drop! :)

1) Valentine's day is around the corner.

2) Out of no reason, she called after my regular badminton session tonite. She asked if i were available to help to buy something for her... but never told me what to buy. And told me, if only i were available to help out, then she would let know. Eventually, she told me she already bought it! So secretive! ;)

3) I saw cake baking powder on my kitchen table...

4) at 11:00pm, while i was in my room sending urgent email to my SJ counter part, she asked me to call her, if i wanna go down to my kitchen... 

 My best guess is... she is baking a cake for me!

And... i have prepared a secret valentine's gift for her liao too... shhh...

stay tuned! ;)

Happy Birthday Ah Huat!

Oh yeah... this is not the intention of this post... juz in case...FYI, our tall, sporty, adventurous, rich and handsome Eng Huat has not committed to anybody yet. Do write to me, if you want his contact number :) 

It's time to update again. So many things happened around me of late... let's begin with my last KL trip on 8/18 for that lousy World Badminton Championship game + a meet up with my trading buddies at San Francisco Cafe, MidValley + shopping shopping shopping.

We stayed at Boulevard Hotel throughtout our 3 days 2 nites trip @ KL. This hotel has become my favorite for convenience (shopping) sake and well, its quite new and very nice, clean and comfort to stay. Most importantly, a swimming pool for my kids! Shaun loved it so much that i had to drag him out of the pool!

My next KL trip, mostly on Oct 4th, i will try out the OneWorld Hotel, which is connected to the 1 Utama shopping mall. And close to the one of the most happening hang out area, The Curve.

Here are few photos taken by my slow responsed/low quality camera phone during my KL trip.

This is Tze Long. One of my 3 trading buddies. We formed a team for the upcoming Options Trading Championship, to be held in 3 countries ie Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia concurrently from Oct 17-19.

Coincidently, i found this book @ MPH... One of my trading buddies, she refused to hv me taken her photo... well, her real name is Tan Angel. No kidding :)

CF and Eng Huat. Although it's lousy game, the companionship is more important than the game, indeed. This is my 1st experience watching live matches.

Teng Fong and Alan. By looking at Alan's eyes... needless to say, you should know how lousy the matches were that day! BTW, Teng Fong, nvm the RM103. you were featured on the TV a couple times for free! :)

my favorite hero, Lin Dan vs. Sonny from Indo... warming up before the match started. This was the one and the only one interesting match of the day. Again... no Malaysian players... :(

Hi hi! This is Princess Alyssa! I turned 6-month-young already!  

A warm welcome hug from my cousin sister, Zerlynde who visited us @ our hotel room on the last night before we were heading back home. I feel loved!!!

The most missed playmates, have been awhile since their last meeting. Zerlynde and Jonathan were playing Spiderman!

Well, that's all for now... more to come!

Baby Alyssa's 1st McD experience!

Shaun Shaun seemed like enjoying McD pretty much!

Jonathan's favorite french fries! Good Good!!!

While enjoying my magic moment with Jonathan at this lil' public field abv, a soccer ball was accidentaly kicked out of bound and heading to our direction. One of the teenages was running slowly towards us trying  to fetch the ball back.

I seized this opportunity to show off my soccer skill by stopping the slow flying ball with one foot, passing it back with another. All was executed smoothly with precise timing and power! And the soccer ball landed right on the teenage's foot.

Haha! Was thinking to myself that hey, i am still young! And the boy gave me a smile and shouted: "Thank you UNCLE! "

Tamader! i hv a mixed feeling now... ;) 

The Rose

~ by Natalia
 
 
Some say love it is a river
That drowns the tender reed.
Some say love it is a razor
That leaves your soul to bleed.
 
Some say love it is a hunger
An endless, aching need
I say love it is a flower,
And you it's only seed.
 
It's the heart afraid of breaking
That never learns to dance
It's the dream afraid of waking
That never takes the chance
 
It's the one who won't be taken,
Who cannot seem to give
And the soul afraid of dying
That never learns to live.
 
When the night has been too lonely
And the road has been too long.
And you think that love is only
For the lucky and the strong.
 
Just remember in the winter
Far beneath the bitter snow
Lies the seed that with the sun's love,
In the spring, becomes the rose.

hmmm.... i further asked, "any possibility of boy?"

Doc replied firmly, "i say 99% is a gal, i hv nvr wrong in this area, throughout my whole life as gynae!"

So, i finally got a little princess!!! woooohahahaha!!!

Since last Sunday was also baby Shaun's 1 year yound birthday, we decided to have a combo celebration for a 1 night stay @ the newly face lifted Rasa Sayang Resort and Spa.

While baby Shaun was having his many 1st experiences there i.e. 1st bare foot steps on the sandy beach & swimming @ the pool, i was busying video taping all the precious & fun moments and managed only to snapshot a few photos...

hmm... lesson learnt. 1) Rasa Sayang Resort & Spa not worth the $ for what it offers. 2) i juz cannot video shooting while taking photos... too troublesome & time consuming... i will opt for my D70s, the nxt time.

fun moments taken during the pool sessions.

and a few macro shots taken at the tibetian style Spa resort...

and the swimming pools

and the tropical style garden.

seaview from my room's balcony @ the garden wing.

and lastly,  a happy family photo taken at the Hot Wok restaurant where we had our lunch there after checking out ~ 2pm.

The famaous Uluwatu Cliff is located at the South West of Bali. It's also a surfer's paradise especially for thoz professional level ones as the wave is much more challenging the those found in Kuta Beach. There is also a temple situated at the top of the cliff. Lot of monkeys as big as triple the size of our Penang Botanical Garden's are wandering that area. Rumors have it said that, these monkeys are specially training to rip of f tourists' sunglasses and hats for in exchange for $$ :) So, beware of your own properties!!! :)

We eventually dropped by the famous Glass House overseeing the blue ocean which is especially built for wedding couples @ Blue Point Bay Villas & Spa Resort. It juz happened that there was a newly wed couple there! Juz imagine, the earth, the sea, the sky and your loved ones come together and witnessing the special moment of yours... How romantic that is!!! I wish that my next wedding ceremony, will be held here :)  Oh yeah, the cheapest rate of this Villas is ~ USD200 per night.

Sorry for my laziness to update this... Please stay tuned, more to come!
