Rules are not meant to be broken!

Sorry, sorry. No, this is not Suju's title song.. it's just an apolegetic double words to myself for ignoring my blog these while. Anyway, I just came back from the 5 days trip to Surabaya. Nope..it's not for enjoyment or holiday either. It's for a mission. Mission Impossible.. muahahaha.. Anyway, I learn a lot from this educational trip.

Lately, things have been crappy. I do not understand why some people who are so intellectual are actually downright damn unreasonable and pathetic. LOOK, IF YOU'RE DAMN GOOD, IT DOESN'T MEAN YOU'RE DAMN CORRECT! Please respect others opinion if you want others to respect yours. Everyone is entitled, so please don't shut me off. By all means, do the things you think that is right ON YOUR OWN. I just follow my style, that is FOLLOW THE RULES. You can enjoy your own complications that you yourself create and be happy with them. I don't even care, dude! But one thing is, please don't drag others down together with your complications. It's SELFISH! Understand? Maybe not. zzzzz.. haii.. itulah orang tua-tua cakap.. kalau bodoh tak apa, boleh belajar tapi kalau dah degil, SUKA HATI KAU LAH NAK, KAU PON DAH BESAR! APA-APA, KAU TANGGUNGLAH SENDIRI.

Tak kuasa nyah nak layan.. :)

I love his voice!!

Desaru

Hello!! My blog is so dormant and I feel very guilty about it. Even so, I have no plan to close it down for whatever reason it maybe. Since I'm "MIA"(Missing In Action), there have been a lot of things going on which some of them are just too much to share and others were a bit scary.

Anyway, last December 09, my second sis and her family finally moved to the not-so-new home in Skudai, JB, my eldest sis who is on leave from work in Brunei went straight there from Singapore Changi Airport. Then we had a chance to go Desaru. which is my first time there. The beach is so breezy and inviting though there's a sign of "Beach Closed" due to monsoon season. As you know.. it's a "No Swimming" rule but we just entered the beach anyway. We don't swim as the waves are roaring but we just play along the freshwater stream that lead to the sea. So for the kids.. they don't care and still swim :O it's fun watching them though. Moreover.. there's practically no other people there so the beach can be considered ours.. hehehe..

Here are some of the pics that are not in order :)

I'm back!

Hello from six feet under! haha.. Anyway, my old blog template really makes me feel that this blog has being "Rest In Peace" state for quite sometime and I decided to bring a new lease of life to this page. I ever thought of quitting blogging cos I'm too busy to blog but seems like I can't let this poor thing go. What do you think of the new layout? I find it breathe taking.. all the green..green.. and green.. it reminds me of my village back in Melaka.

Ok.. there's a lot of things going on.. I am taking my driving lesson at SSDC since like forever! Actually it started last year, Dec 2008. Come then the practical part which I started around last month. I'd never imagine that driving can be so fun and hard at the same time. I managed to turn badly, not being able to keep in lane, mounting on the kerb, brake suddenly and make my instructors looked at me from the corner of their eyes.. one of them said my hands are so stiff in handling the steering wheel that she can't even help when I'm in danger! Before that, the same instructor said my hands are so stiff as if I'm strangling a person's head.. haha.. So, you can imagine that I actually laugh a lot, I really mean a lot, at myself lately... for being so DAMN CLUMSY.. and easily panicked... and.. nervous.. and.. slow.. and..whatever silly words you can think of.

I must graduate from the driving school before they move to Woodlands by March 2010, where it is located really far from home :(

Just hope so that I am able to pass on my 1st attempt. If not, I think I'd need to see a Councillor or Psychiatrist. *SIGHHHHHH*

I am craving for an old novel.

As people have always been saying, if there's a movie made from a novel, read the novel first. It's more interesting and exciting. Well, I can say that I agree 100% with that. There's this old movie that I cannot get it out of my mind no matter how hard I try. It's based on a true story written by Nicholas Sparks. Well.. it's actually more or less about his younger sister who died at a very young age, to be precise thirty-three, due to cancer. The best thing about her life is that there is actually someone who wants to marry her despite her ailment.

The movie is so nice and successfully make me a cry baby at the end of it. Just like Hindustani movies only that it's not three hours.. hehe... Anyway, few days back I tried to locate the novel at Borders and I think Borders can't be bothered anymore as they did not keep like.. almost 10-years-ago novel?? haha.. I'm still hunting for it though and I'll guess I'll be purchasing via Amazon.com or Barnes & Noble. The title? A WALK TO REMEMBER. Starring Mandy Moore and Shane West. Woooohhhoooooo.. they're so really full of charisma.. just perfect for each other.. that's all I've got to say. I am so overwhelmingly facinated by their compatibility that I almost turn dumb. hahaha..

Hello !!!

It has been sometime since I add an entry here. I've been busy enough just like everybody else when the new year's approaching. I just came back from Sidoarjo, Indonesia to run some theology classes there. Yes, I'm teaching.

It has been an eye opener. The villagers there really make me feel at home. They are so welcoming. Even though the place is not as "comfortable" as Singapore, I realised I didn't mind that and will go back there anytime I'm in need.

So, this year will be a very busy year for me, I suppose. Not sure about being able to update this blog every now and then. I guess not. Hubby is having a high fever and in bed right now. His temperature? 38.3°C. Paracetamol didn't really help so I make him some barley drink. I hope he will be well in time to start returning to work soon.

By end January, my elder brother will undergo an operation on his leg and he will have 6 months to recuperate. Oh my.. I wonder why all the sickness at the beginning of the year? Oh ya.. I just recovered from diarrhoea too. zzzz.. I guess if we're not given sickness, we won't value health. And yes.. I do learn my lesson.

Anyway, I wish success to my younger sis, Anisah for getting a new job. In this recession period, it is like almost impossible to get one. She's a fast learner and i guess she should just give herself sometime to adapt to the new environment. I think I'm not too late to wish all of you a very Happy New Year.
