Coffee Artist

Have you EVER imagine beautiful inspiration can be birthed through coffee drinking?

That is my dad’s coffee cup when he finished drinking his coffee today… I looked closer and it looks like trees of the opening of a forest at night with a bright moonlight. it is just so great.

I think God love to surprise us, with his creation, inspiration and vision and it’s beautiful…


More than just food on the table

Below is some of the dishes we had for our reunion lunch. It was ALOT of food for 6 people (my uncle and cousin joined us), and the preparation was pretty massive.

I’m someone who do not particularly enjoy cooking or spending time in the kitchen (at least as of now i haven’t gain that interest). But being the only princess at home, i’m normally nominated automatically to be in the kitchen with my mom.

But today, something caught my attention, family reunion is really more than just having food around the dinner table… As I was the extended arms for my mum, my younger bro and my dad was another 2 pairs of extra arms too! I stood aside for a little while to see that scene… it’s about doing and achieving something together as a family.

ps: big bro and family isn’t around this time round as baby Kristen is still too young to travel. If there are here, I’m sure it have been a more beautiful sight.


There’s where I want to be.

I was refering to Kuching, a place which i call home.

I’m back last night and had my laksa already. I was awaken today by sounds… sounds of the chirping of birds and i think a neighbour scrubbing clothes. Those were sounds that you will RARELY hear from the place I sleep in KL. Weather here have been a real nice, been a lazy, cloudy morning. God’s amazing always by bringing me back….

It’s great to be home after a good run of adventure for the last 2 weeks at work and different things happening… good news, bad news… new experience, bad habits. *phew… I’m glad for a break.

This holiday, I am hoping for a great rest, best time re-aligning, re-adjusting and re-scheduling on my priority before i hit back in.

Friends who are in Kuching, gimme a call. Let’s meet for a catch up! I want to spend time with you guys!

Friends in KL, don’t miss me too much… I’ll be back

Friends that is all over the place, Gong Xi Fatt Chai!


A woman’s words…

January 11, 2009

2 pairs of married couples were talking:

Men 1: This 2009, I want to have a make my garden really nice like a bonsai garden. I will make a pathway to walk with pebbles…..
Men 2: Wow! That’s great! who will you be hiring to do that for you?
Men 1: Hire? I don’t think so, I rather do it myself. Then I’ll have the trill!
Wife of Men 1: Haiya! Don’t bother la! you wouldn’t do it la! you never even bother to go out to the garden to look at your cactus garden which is full of weed now!
others: (silently ignored that remark)

How many of you are caught or familiar in conversations or remarks similar to the above? I think many times, we women have the tendency, without realizing, we bring down a man. Can be a friend, can be your brother, can be your father, colleagues, lecturer… more importantly if the person is your husband or boyfriend.

Last week, I’m caught in this uncomfortable conversation and I made a decision not to do that the best that I can. I felt so bad cos i DO DO that at times…

i have learnt to shut up if i have nothing good to say bout a person. Eg: Don’t say your boyfriend is not tall,dark n handsome…. when he is able to melt your heart each time you allow him to look into your eyes.. and how you are attracted to his charm…

He is not Barbie’s Ken cos you are not Barbie
He is not perfect, So aren’t you…

What can you possibly do on the first weekend of the year? I…

  • Stayed at work with my colleague till 730pm

  • 2am supper which i barely can keep my eyes open
  • had lil bro drive half way on trip home cos i was falling asleep
  • Rested
  • had 3 young ladies to start our little episode story
  • missed my dental appointment
  • cooked lunch (soy sauce chicken, old cucumber soup, taufu n prawns)
