Last Wednesday in Plymouth

This is my last post for the "Last". 7 post in a row for a week. I felt quite OK to be honest but I need to be free enough to allocate time to blog. Sometimes I felt I have nothing to blog about. But anyway, I did it successfully on the account of I'm not working having some spare time to blog. Hope you're not too bored, everyone...

Hubby and I are soooo addicted with the Nintendo DS Brain Training game lately. We're competing against each other indirectly! and guess what? I managed to sharpen my brain into 28 years which is good while hubby deteriotes to 40. muahaha...but I think you have to be sharp to play the game in order to get good result. It's a good brain training though. I enjoyed the maths part & Sudoku. I can imagine that we'll be rowing over the DS in the plane tomorrow.

Yeap tonight is my last night in Plymouth. To be honest, I thought I would be settling here in Plymouth for good. It never came across to my mind that I’ll be moving back home. I first came here with hubby in 2003 as a student and I had to learn English from the beginning as the accent here is different. Now, not only 2 but 3 of us are moving back to Malaysia starting fresh.

Anyway, there’s one last thing I want to do before leaving UK. A delicious meal in Misato yum yum...the renowned Japanese restaurant in London China Town. The meals there are always very lovely and there are always long queues at peak hours. We would never miss it whenever we go to London. And we’re going to go there for a late lunch before heading to the airport tomorrow. Yipee!!!

Then to Convent Garden which I always missed at each London visits. I heard that it is famous with funny performances all day and I’m looking forward to watching it myself. with AJ and hubby.

T____T

Bye bye friends

Bye bye WMS

Bye bye Plymouth

Bye bye London

Bye bye England

I miss you all and hope to see you soon....

Malaysia here I come! Here we come. The new challenging risky yet exciting life begins...

First a long haul flight. T.T

Last Tuesday in Plymouth

Hello again....I hope you guys are not bored with my every day "Last" posts since Thursday last week talking about what have I been doing that day. Are you? Don't worry if it is for it will be stop by tomorrow. I was wondering how much can I blog if I do it everyday. I'll tell you the summary on the last "last" entry, which is due on tomorrow. At the mo, feel free to leave your comments on the 7 continous last "Last" entries, even if it is not good.

Well, as mentioned from previous entry, I went to my company with AJ. AJ was very naughty and he kept lying down on the carpet for no reason at all. Prolly he likes green eh? He was shy at first meeting my colleagues but within the next few minutes he was running around like it is his playground! Imagine that there's a person less than 1 metre tall running around shouting, sneaking under the table, climbing up the chair and stealing whatever he can steal. =.= I had to run around catching him. Gosh...

3 of us were due to meet Ritchie near to his flat and we're passing by Rudy's car and I was surprised to hear Rudy's car engine was on! I thought, OMG is that a thief trying to steal Rudy's car. I quickly nudged hubby to be prepared just in case. Rest assured it was just Ritchie warming up the car to prevent it getting rusty. He was waving from inside. Phew....

We had lunch again at Weatherspoon, not the same one we had few days ago. This time it's in Barbican. I had the beef burger Gourmet...wah...it was so delicious. Even better than BK, McD or KFC. I love the cheese. Love it! Love it! I believe this should be available at most Weatherspoon and I believe you should give it a try if you happened to come across.

I know it's the annual Britain firework championship tonight and tomorrow and it has just started right at this moment. I had to missed it. What else? Packing. Why this packing never ends? T.T I had to weigh the luggage to check how much it was overweight then unzip the luggage taking the heaving stuff / clothes out and redo the same thing again. T.T It's too heavy and I don't understand where is the weight coming from. I hate packing coz I need to make sure it's not too heavy to prevent extra charges and also complaints from hubby. Hubby would go bleh bleh bleh..neh neh neh...da da da...unstop like my nana.

Anyway, I managed to get it balance now by taking most of my clothes & shoes out. I need to get new clothes & shoes once I reach KL or wear Alice's temporarily. Hopefully I can fit in her clothes well without breaking them. Plus, my clothes are quite old already so it's probably a good time for me to get new ones in. It's on hubby anyway..muahaha *evil grin*

Oh yeah, we saw some lovely cakes from a new cake shop in the town today. Mr Buns. It sounds like a Chinese bun shop but it's not. I saw lots of people coming in and out so I thought I might as well give it a try. The cakes looks soo lovely.
One word. Ptuik! AJ didn't enjoy it as well. He totally rejects it after the first bite. Same goes to Hubby. In the bin they go. It's toooooo sugary...like having zillions sweets at the same time.



Here're some of the photos taken today & yesterday....
AJ found this way very comfy

Last Monday in Plymouth & Pre-Tuesday

Morning :0) & Sorry T.T I was too tired to blog what I did yesterday. Was busy packing packing and packing and tidying up things while taking care of AJ.

Boefre I continue, please allow me to take a few moments to pass on my message to my beloved friends below (in no particular order)...
Eunice Lau - my ex-housemate in KL
Joy Yii - my school friend's sister
Mr Wong - my sister-in-law's bf
Kayianna Jess Hung - a friend we knew here in university
Josephine Lee - my college friend

Girls and 1 guy, I wish you all blessed with many many happy return. Happy Birthday! I miss you all a lots......and we shall meet again soon.

***

Right, what did we do yesterday? We went out to celebrate Brandon, Ken's son who turned 3 yesterday. We had the birthday lunch at Noddles lounge and the meals were very nice. Thanks Ken! We returned to his house for the birthday cake. The cake is lovely too. Unfortunately, the photos are all in Cheryl's (Ken's wife) camera. But that's not the important thing. The important thing is I wish you, Brandon many many happiness and wish you all your dream come true. I see you back soon. Love you guys lotsa.

Then we headed home for more packing. And oh oh oh, we watched Ponyo, a Japanese animated cartoon movie. It's full of magical fantasy loveeeeeee story and I love the ending. I love the ponyo name. It really is a cute name. You should watch it too.

AJ is watching the Bolt 3D animated movie while I'm writing this post and AJ found it very funny. He was laughing on some of the cute actions when I don't think it's funny. But I think it's the cute actions that the animals (Bolt the dog and the hamster) made AJ non-stop laughing. Cute AJ~~~ I shall let AJ watch it to keep him entertain.

Next...out to see my ex-colleagues and lunch with Richie (Rudy's bro, Rudy our friend not Rudy the croco-nasour in Ice-Age4). Later...

p.s. 2 days left. oh....getting very excited...

Last Sunday in Plymouth

Today, yet another sunny and lovely family day. We went out to Seafood and Pasta Bar, the famous seafood meals with Teck Young. The restaurant is located in Barbican and we know it tends to be full house on peak hours especially on sunny & dry day. Thumbs up on the food and service.

Last Saturday in Plymouth

I did some packing preparing for our one-way trip back to Malaysia in OMG can't believe it, it's not far now or in other words very near now...haha...i'm just being annoying...in 5 days. Woot! I'm looking forward to it but feeling sad at the same time to leave Plymouth which I have been living for the past 6 years and WMS which I have been working with for the past 3 years. T.T This is the place where I graduated, secured my first job and gave birth to AJ. T_____T

Yes, where was I? packing..ahhh....I did some packing ok..I am not going to repeat the purpose of the packing anymore else I'll be repeating the same paragraph over and over again. =.= and I found a nintendo hubby bought for me last Christmas in the luggage. It's the nintendo DS lite limited edition with guitar hero version. So, I took it out and I thought it should be made to full use not collecting dust. I haven't touch it since after my CNY holiday. Since I'm so free apart from the need to care AJ full time, I could play the nintendo game at my free time.

So, I had it charged yesterday before I went to bed and started playing the brain training game this morning. Last time I checked when I first played the brain training was about 4-5 months ago, my brain age was 80. =.= I remembered that time my response was so slow that hubby laughed at me at the result. ==" I know you're laughing as well. Don't deny it! I started playing it again this morning and guess what...woot! 46! My brain age is now 46. At least it's better than 80.

Hubby took a test as well and his brain age is 54. wahaha...at least i'm better. muahaha....Now I need to train more to exercise my brain to be 27 or less!! Whoosh!

We stayed at home today. It's another good day just like yesterday. But we're taking a break. Oh, don't get me wrong. We live not far away from the town but it requires a lot of effort to push AJ's pushchair climbing up the hill...it's very tiring I admit. I had to catch up my breath whenever we reach to the top. It's not easy you know. I'm getting old already. =.= So we took a good rest at home today apart from taking AJ out for a short walk around where we lived this morning.

Oh yeah, Ken and his family came over today. His daughter already can crawl and stand up on supports and she's only 8 months old! Amazing isn't it? AJ only started to crawl at around 9 months but I heard that girls tend to pick up things faster than boys. She's a cutie and I'm sooo jealous of her really fair skin...Brandon the eldest child is turning 3 on the coming Monday and we're going out to celebrate. It's gonna be fun! I'm looking forward to it!

p.s. 5 days left.

Last Friday in Plymouth

Yeap, another sunny day today. We didn't do much but went down to town again. hehe...

Lunch: I had 8oz sirloin steak at Weatherspoon while hubby had the gammon steak. AJ had lunch at home before we went out so he had a few peas and potatoes. My steak was well done alright but too stiff. My teeth hurt a bit after the meal. T.T Hubby's steak was too salty. Not a really good meal.

While waiting for food, we took some pictures. AJ just woke up and still a bit blur in the photos.
pardon my plain-no-make-up face
family photo
look at mummy opps... the camera!
one...two...
three
AJ sure loves this sofa

Went back home after lunch and collecting the free photo from Debenhams since we don't have anything else to do.

Dinner: Home-cooked meals. Rice with 2 meat dishes and a plate of pak choi. Didn't finish them as I cooked too much. Bad estimation. =.=

Supper: Vanilla ice-cream...yum yum.

Oh dear, from just looking at the photos and by just reading what I've just typed, I am not eating healthily, am I? Not to forget, I will be eating like a pig when I get back home. I need to watch out my eating else I will just get back to my post-pregnancy body again. T.T But I'll enjoy first....haha

Anyway, it's again another lovely day today. Been packing little by little at home.

Not sure what to do tomorrow but if the day is good, I'll probably go to the playground in Central Park, not the one in Beaumont Park although I prefer the Beaumont Park. Update you guys our tomorrow's activities.

And oh oh oh, here are some photos taken yesterday and the day before.
that's the purpose of bebe
AJ's sweetest smile of the day

Last Thursday in Plymouth

Weeks of raining had left us, the Plymouthian, feeling odd. It was supposed to be hot & sunny August, not raining August. =.= However, our prayers have been answered. After weeks of waiting to see Mr. Sun, he finally came out. Actually it arrives at the right time. Just the day after my last working day. At least we get to spend the last few days in Plymouth with sunny & warm weather leaving us memorable days.

We hit to the town today. Hubby carried a really heavy speaker system (5 speakers and 1 one subwoofer) with the hope to be able to sell it at the second hand shop down the town. We bought it online at offer price £35. I expect for £5 only considering the fact that it's 4 years old already. and guess what? We got it for £10! £10! £10!

Not much but at least we got something back to buy something else. haha...happy happy.

Then we went to Drake Circus for lunch and shopping. Beaumont park next where Alice, AJ and I went there around this time last year. It has a kid playground and AJ loved it there so much that he played everything there - the slide, swing, see-saw and trampoline. It's much more fun there compared to Central Park. He loves the trampoline especially and would run back for a jump or more.

Because the Beaumont park is located quite far away from where we live plus the walk around the town up and down spent beforehand, I had to take a short nap when we reach home. No stamina already after jumping on the trampoline with AJ. And oh oh oh, to my surprise, AJ sleep early today. He must have used all his energy at the playground today.

What a lovely day.

p.s. 7 days to go. Woot!!!

To you, for you, In favour of WMS

Allow me to dedicate this post to WMS.

Dear WMS,

To all my adored colleagues and beloved company Western Mortgage Services (WMS) I would like to take this opportunity to express my greatest appreciation to you.

Right, I joined WMS on 26/05/2006, I have learned a lot be it from working experience or social life. I was the only Malaysian and Chinese in WMS and because of that everyone in the company knows me. And still is. =.=

Let me describe my experience at the interview time with WMS. It was a few weeks before my final year exam and I was excited but I considered myself lucky to be short listed for being a foreigner in UK. The interview went quite well. I brought the certificates and transcripts along with me on that day but I forgot to show the documents to them! How forgetful I was! The file was brought there with me and left unopened until I reach home. I thought “I’m dead. No hope this time. Not a single chance!”. But surprisingly, I received a call the next few days and YES! I’ve been offered. Whoosh! I’m so proud of myself for being able to secure a job before I graduate.

I still remembered I was pretty nervous on my first day. I went to the HR department and had some introduction with Health and Safety training, working policy, IT policy, bla bla bla. Then I met my then manager who interviewed me previously. The meeting took place in a small meeting room. And when I tried to stand up to follow him to the IT department, the table suddenly fell down! The legs came off from the table surface and off it went down. OMG, I was sooooo embarrassed you know. I didn’t expect something like this happened. On my first day wor.

Anyway, I had to learn a new development tool called Magic, which WMS acquired since 1999 from day one and which I don’t have a clue about it from my university education! It’s not a programming language but it’s a tool (something similar to Microsoft Access) with a mixture of programming concept which WMS use for in-house systems. It was pretty difficult at first but with the help of Gary, my then mentor now my team leader, I took it quite well. Whoosh!

I don’t like to be sitting in the office doing nothing so I always came up to Gary asking for more jobs. Haha For a period, I think Gary got really scared of me whenever he saw me coming. I was known to him and the other team leaders from the same department as Maggs the machine. T.T Because I completed the assigned tasks so quickly that these really amazed them and Gary knew that he had to find a new project for me not long after he gave me one. I didn’t realised that myself until they told me a few months ago.

So within months I was able to get involved with more challenging projects, which I admit a lot of experience gained from there. Personally I enjoyed working with WMS. I didn’t felt that I was discriminated or bullied and mix well with the colleague at work. The most important thing of all I think my English has improved working with WMS. I went from only speak out only on project related stuff to jokes with my colleagues. Sometimes they do tease me for not speaking English properly, but I don’t really take note of it because nah…I can’t be bothered.

Seriously, WMS is a good company to work for. I enjoyed the benefits provided from WMS. 26 paid annual leave, compressed working hours from five days to four days a week, 9 months paid maternity leave, paid sick leave and a small funding over getting a new spectacles and lots more, what else can I ask for? I would certainly recommend anyone to work with WMS. It's the best company I enjoyed. If not, I won't stay there for 3 years!

However due to family reasons, hubby and me along with the support from AJ, we decided to move back for Malaysia starting fresh so that we could be together as one whole real family. At least we are not separated too far away compared to thousand miles away in UK which can be reachable, huggable, touchable after 13 hours flight from London to KL plus the 4 hours train to Plymouth, 1 hour drive from SIbu airport to Sarikei also not mentioning the waiting hours in between in the airports. T.T

Today is my last day and to my surprise, they even decorate my table today and giving me farewell gifts. They are so lovely, weren’t they? I was so emo when they gave me the pressies and cried. *sob sob* They made me sad to leave. Anyway, we had the leaving buffet lunch at the Buffet city restaurant which was good.

The Proposals

I have watched the proposals movie last week casted by Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds and I certainly recommending this to you all. It's not because the my name Margaret (woohoo) is used in the movie. I love Sandra Bullock's movies.

Read the full synopsis:
When high-powered book editor Margaret Tate (Sandra Bullock) faces deportation to her native Canada, the quick-thinking exec declares that she's actually engaged to her unsuspecting put-upon assistant Andrew Paxton (Ryan Reynolds), who she's tormented for years. He agrees to participate in the charade, but with a few conditions of his own. The unlikely couple heads to Alaska to meet his quirky family and the always-in-control city girl finds herself in one comedic fish-out-of-water situation after another. With an impromptu wedding in the works and an immigration official on their tails, Margaret and Andrew reluctantly vow to stick to the plan despite the precarious consequences.

I was laughing all the way through. Personally, I love most where they organise a hen's night before the wedding. It was so funny you know especially on what the bloke did to Margaret. You should definitely watch it too. No, actually I love everything that happened at their weekend visit to Andrew's hometown. Don't miss it, guys.

My first bag

Woot! I just got a new bag. It's so lovely and love it very much.

It's small but it fits me well.

It's purposely made for me and others same age as me.

It's yellow, blue and orange. Perfect combination colors and I love to bring it around with me.

Guess what? It has a name card and I'm going to write my name on it - AJ Ling so it will be returned to me if it get lost. Brilliant, isn't it?

Hmm...What should I put in there? ah...I know. my precious dummy. so I can hide it from daddy and mommy. They won't snatch it from me when I need it. yes! teehee...showtime!

Sushi...love it! enjoy it!

Normally I would bring lunch to work. Either bread with chocolate or strawberry spread or marble cake. Sometimes, when there’s leftover enough to cover three of us meal for the next day, I’ll bring some to work. Sometimes, we went out to BK (Burger King) for lunch but because Jimmy then changed to a new company since last year that is just outside of the city centre and now since he resigned, he stayed at home taking care of AJ. However, it seems to be a rainy July rather than sunny July experienced from previous years, so we don’t really hang out outside much now. So I would sometimes to the nearby sandwich store. But now I can’t be bothered to have any bread for lunch anymore. Fed up!

Yeah, I’m not as lucky as the easterners that can just go out to the nearby stall with colleagues and have a nice eastern meal ie Nasi Lemak satu moi! Or chicken fried rice! With Teh Peng! OMG, by just mentioning these have already made me drooling. T.T Yum yum….

I don’t know why but probably it’s because I grew up eating rice and missed having oriental meals if I missed on a meal. So, I had mostly enough with bread at lunch at work. I don’t hate it 100% but I don’t really enjoy it anymore like I used to be. It has been like this since I was studying - like for the past 6 years. OMG!

As I only have a few more days left working before we’re moving home for good, I have decided to have sushi on every working lunch day. Don’t care anymore la. I can’t keep torturing myself like this else I’ll die with this deep intense yearning for a decent oriental meals for lunch.

Sushi! Yes! Sushi! Either from M&S, Tesco or Sainsbury but I prefer M&S. It’s fresher and nearest to my office. My colleague had the sushi everyday since I don't know when and since he started to sit with me so I guess that triggers me. The seaweed is not fresh though but I don’t mind really for another few days. At least it’s better than having bread. They come from different sizes but a medium is enough for me with a selection of prawn Futomaki, Soya Edamame Maki, King Prawn Nigiri, Red Pepper Maki, Smoked Salmon Nigiri and Cucumber Maki dip with Soy Sauce. If I feel hungry again, I have fruits or something light. Easy eh…


Haih, why I didn’t think of this earlier? Could fit well with my diet. My colleague has lost a lot of weight as a result of having sushi for lunch and he ain’t get bored with it. Not yet! As if he already sat next with me since he joined the company? But blame myself for not thinking of this at the first place. Good for diet not for £££ wise. Haha…

Only for the next few days, 3 working days so I’m not really concerned about spending the money anymore just for a nice lunch. Oopps, I'm late for work! See you guys later.

p.s. 14 days to go.

Chrome or IE?

Forget IE. It’s absolutely no doubt that you get quite a number of annoying errors with latest IE version. It’s either not responding or the takes its time to load the page *yawn*. Yes, I get annoyed too. Especially when there’s news about virus attacks into IE especially with the latest version IE8.


Then I came across with Google Chrome the other day. It’s not new but I can’t be bothered to change IE to Chrome. Reason being I have all bookmarks in IE and changing to a new web browser would mean I need to mange the links at two different places at two different time. I tried Mozilla Firefox as Firefox offers better security but again, Firefox manages bookmarks in a different location. Argh…why couldn’t they use the bookmarks from the same place and I can save a lot of time synchronising them?

I decided to give it a go on Chrome last weekend when we reformatted our pc and I couldn’t get the latest IE version because it requires validation on genuine windows =.=. So, I’m use the old IE version IE 6. Still some website requires latest IE to be fully operational ie Facebook. To my surprise, Chrome offers the most simplistic web browser I have ever seen and spacious even with user-friendly design. It's so simple like learning 1-2-3.

Unlike IE, Chrome loads the page really quick, like in 1 sec. Trust me. IE could take 1 minute even though we’re using the super fast 10 Mb broadband, ok, I don’t have the super fast broadband here but I’m using 2Mb here which is fast enough to load a page in less than a second using Chrome and I can’t understand what IE is doing at the background to just load a page. Sometimes it went non-responsive mode leaving me no choice but to close it down and a message saying window is busy bla bla bla do you want to continue? Of course I want to close it down because you’re wasting my time seeing the blank page and not responding at all even if I leave it running so why do I want to wait anyway?

The best example to show you is the blogger sites. Did you notice with IE, it’s taking some amount of time to load my blog main page with the side menu fully loaded? But it’s not with Chrome! It just loading 100% I repeat 100% so fast that I got so excited to scroll down to get updates from the other bloggers right at the next second!

Still, do use firefox to access into your internet banking or any sites which requires money related transaction for firefox offers better security than IE and not sure for Chrome since I’m still testing on Chrome. I wouldn’t risk accessing to money matter sites using Chrome yet!

Chrome. Chrome. Chrome. I love the Chrome name. Sounds so flashy yet royal. Somemore, it’s free! That’s the topmost important rule, don’t you agree? So, what are you waiting for? Google for Chrome!

Yoplait Petits Filous

Needless to say, calcium is one of the essentials minerals for growing up babies and children. Every babies and young children (no exception) loves yogurt. I don’t know why but it’s very addicting. I love it myself as well too but as mentioned from previous post, I love muller yogurt more more. Oh my, these food manufacturers are doing brilliant jobs, aren’t they? – the taste are just so delicious and loveable.

Yoplait Petits Filous (aka Little Rascals in French) is one of AJ’s favourite yogurt. I can tell you that his appetite would go up the moment he sees yogurt. He wouldn’t take his hands off from it until he sees the empty pot. Cheeky eh. I only allow two yogurts per day though ok maybe extra one if he finished his meal beforehand. No harm but I am limiting so that I can give him other food at the same time.


True enough, babies as young as 4 months can be introduced to this high-calcium-best-for-bones yogurts. However, I personally don’t recommend this until 6 months or later. There’s no hurry to wean your young one for milk is always the best meals for babies. Plus, the organs may not be ready to digest the yogurt. So, do continue to nurse your baby with breast milk exclusively as much as you can, otherwise formula milk.

I have only started introducing AJ the yogurt at about 1 year old. He first took it well in the nursery so I continue with the same routine he has at nursery days at home. Now it’s his favourite and a must have every day! His favourites are strawberry or raspberry.

There’re a lot of yogurts out in the store but I didn’t know this bestest one until recommendation from my friend. Thanks, Joline! There’re lots more children’s yogurt out in the store for different ages and you should give it a go! I guarantee your babies will love them too.

Now I'm a bit worry if I could find a similar one when we move back to Malaysia. *thumb-rolling*

How would you make the most of your wedding?

How would you have your wedding when you walked down the aisle to get blessings from the God? What songs? the slow mo walk and song and spending thousands on it on that day?

I was reading a news and I found this very funny but the best ever wedding video I have watched so far. It's indeed the happiest and most memorable wedding the couple will ever forget and indeed us the audience. I love it straight away and can't stop watching it. It's such a clever & most wicked idea. Bless the couple...and you know that in just a few days since the video uploaded, there has already been 3 million people watching it. You should watch it too.

L.I.F.E

Life in my dictionary:

= Live It-to Full Extreme - buggy jumping, parachuting, rock climbing. I haven't done any of this in my life before. I would try it if you ask me 5 years younger. But I've spend my 5 years actually 6 years in Plymouth, UK through good and bad high and low, I have became a different person from the experience. I am going through the normal life just like the other normal people are doing, you know studying, involved in relationship(ssss for some people), graduating, looking for jobs, competing with other applicants to secure a jobs, moving homes (when you’re still renting), buying some gadgets to pamper myself, supporting my life, saving those money for use in rainy days and now I'm a mother. Now, my fullest excitement so far is to see AJ in my own eyes and held him myself on the 13/01/2008.

= is about no pain no gain – it’s all about indirect gambling in your life. Study or not study (for a better life), graduate or not graduate (to secure a good job), buy or not buy a car (for easy transportation or save for future), buy or not buy a house (for long term investment), marry or not marry (for long life commitment), be a parent or not a parent (for a complete family), travel or not travel (for leisure), for better or worse. The only thing you don’t get to choose to gamble is the family condition you get to be born from and when you die. I’m so far quite satisfied with my life, good huband, good healthy family and in-laws, a healthy son, holding good degree, am healthy myself so far though there’re some obstacles in my life. What else could I wish for?

= is about no regrets, no looking back – yes. I agree everyone makes mistakes about making decisions. It’s great when you are not looking back after decision making but you do sometimes look back those wrong decisions you made, When I feel that I make mistakes (like bought a clothe that I don’t like, not studying hard enough to get an A for my moral in SPM), I know I can’t turn back the time. I do have regrets which of course I cannot erased it from my memory but I will remember it so that I won't do the same mistake in the future. That’s why they call it the optimistic thinking!

= is all about taking risk all the time - We are taking a big challenging risk this time by leaving all the things we have build so far here in UK since 2002 and moving back to Malaysia starting fresh. I will be lying to you if I say I do not have any worries at all. But we’re going to give it a try. Sure it will be hard, least to say culture shock but I’m sure with the optimistic thinking, family and friends support, we can do it. That day is coming soon, in exactly a month time from today. *finger-crossed* Tee-hee...

This is my life. And what’s yours?

Glosson's blog

Would you believe it if I say there is a blogger at just 11 years old. True enough. He's indeed just 11 year old boy. I didn't expect there is such a young boy would be interested to blog especially when you're just primary 11. However, this boy is brilliant - having to be able to memorise ABCs at just one year old is indeed one of the extraordinary. He is!

The interesting part is he gets to meet the PM and our first lady. Gosh! He's so lucky. I'll be over the moon after I get the chance. and now a poet even. Amazing, isn't he? He's really a talented young entrepeneuer. I'm sure his parents are extremely proud of him. His English is good as well.

I salute you, Gloson! Go and have a look at his blog. worth to read, guys http://www.glosonblog.com/
