Hai people,
When it comes to celebration, we will invite as many as possible. We will say " the more the merrier". However, is it true? For me, the most important element is the feel of togetherness among the crowd. Like birthday party celebration, do the crowd really want to celebrate or just attending for the sake of be there? In other situation, a family eating together but everyone are busy with their own personal matters. Ermmm I feel weird. As for me, when it comes to celebration like wedding, birthday, hari raya / deepavali / chineese new year / Christmas, farewell or others, I feel like the joy of being together, laughing, chit chatting and harmony are compulsory.
In our daily life, we may not gather as many people as we want but a simple lunch with your colleague(s) will do. Having a chit chat while eating will help in releasing your stress at work. At least you have a break from your works. In different situation, a family having dinner together and everyone share what happened at school or work place. At least create a moment for you to have a quality time with your family. Besides that, a couple who are busy with their own personal life, having a pillow talk over the phone. Not to argue but to share and having some time together especially a long distance relationship.
In my opinion, the more people is not the issue. The most important thing is how you spend your time together. In fact, while you are busy with your works, there will be someone waiting for you, while you are busy telling what happened to you, there will be someone waiting for you to listen, while you are tired with your routine, there will be someone waiting for you to be with.
A casual chit chat over the phone and eat together will do for me. At least it does comfort me and make me feel, I am not alone.
p/s: why we have big brain, two eyes, two ears but only one mouth?

A story of boiling water with carrot, egg and coffee powder
Hello people,
Wanna share with you about an article which I read 1 hour before my chit chat session with TCM today. Actually, I would prefer a new environment with new people and attitude. So here goes the article ( I try to write as far as I remember it).
There is graduate who complaining about her new lifestyle to her mom. She said she hate the traffic jam, her job scopes, salary is low, and bla bla bla. Her mom just silently listen to her. At the same time, her mom boils water separately by using 3 cooking pots. After she felt tired of complaining then she stop. Her mom told her to take carrot, egg and coffee powder. Without asking much (maybe tired of talking LoL) she takes all the 3 items as per requested. Then her mom put the carrot in pot A, egg in pot B and coffee powder in pot C. After few minutes then her mom says" Look at the carrot, egg and coffee. Tell me what happened". The daughter says" carrot became soft, egg became harder and coffee powder dissolve plus the water turn into black". Then her mom continue
"Look sweetheart. Carrot which at first is strong and hard finally become soft when we put it inside the boiling water. So do people. Some people are strong and positive but when there are challenges, pressure and obstacles they became soft, weak and demotivated. Next, the egg. At first it is soft and breakable but after few minutes it became hard and firm. So do people. Some people are soft hearted and kind but they changed. They became stubborn and cruel. Lastly the coffee powder. At first it just a powder which can be sweep away by the air. However, it dissolved, changed the water into black water and produce a good aroma. So do people. They may look weak, no direction in life or maybe look down by others but they can adapt with the environment, do something good when others sabotaj them and persuade or promote others to follow their positive attitude.You choose which one you wanna be in life". -The end-
Almighty Allah says: “…it may be that you dislike a thing which is good for you and that you like a thing that is bad for you. Allah knows but you do not know.” (Al-Baqarah 2:216)
Al-Hasan al-Basri said: “Do not resent the calamities that come and the disasters that occur, for perhaps in something that you dislike will be your salvation, and perhaps in something that you prefer will be your doom.”
And I found this from http://www.islamicgarden.com/think.html
"If we fall short and only focus on the hardship and fail to pay attention to the lessons, then we may undergo that hardship without really gaining anything from it. No matter how much we might have to go through, there are always countless things to be grateful for. Sometimes the test is to recognize the blessings and be grateful."
p/s: I don't know why carrot, egg and coffee powder. You may change to other items if you want to... =P

Hello 2013!
Hello people,
Happy New Year! I had a feeling this year will be a good and lucky year for me. Why? I have no idea. 2012 left me with lots of funny, sad, and memorable experiences. I feel like it is some sort of yearly journal / diary. So, for the year 2012, I have 365 pages telling what happened to me through out the year.
Starting from January where I back to UTP as a Final Year student. I continue my life as a student. I feel crazy with my FYP plus other courses. I took more credit hours. Can you imagine. Even bear2 told me that, I be a good girl last year cause I rarely go out late at night. I spent most of my time in my room. I get to know new friends. They are nice. I feel young when I hang out with them. Obviously! Cause they are foundation student. When I think about my life as a student, I feel like laughing out loud. Do you know why? Every semester when I register the courses, I promise myself to study early, no last minute works, study before go to the class, be active in class and on top of the list, wanna score A. However, when I reach mid semester, I always skip class (cause lazy to go), study a night before exam/test, do works earliest 2 - 3 days before submissions and of course, never score A. When I reach end of semester (almost final examination), always tell myself that I'm gonna die that semester, will fail that subject this subject, cannot make it as per dateline, or even sometimes, I feel like don't want to do anything. Praise to the Almighty, I survive till the end of my study. I still remember during my convocation day. I told Sopha "Finally! I made it. Every semester I told you that I'm gonna die but luckily I survive till the end". hehehe. That's all about my uni life.
Secondly, I have no idea why I always recall about my past. From how naughty I am during childhood, how I grew up as both my parents are working, my memory with school friends, what happened during my internship, how I start my relationship with him (from the registration day), and lastly about my relationship with Iz. The hardest part of thinking about my relationship with Iz is the feeling of how stupid and childish I am back then. I still remember, there are few days when I think about him, I feel regret with what I did. However, the most painful regret is when I have a thought, why can't I really be friend with Ana? Obviously she is the 3rd party in our relationship but Iz did told me, if he really wanna be with Ana, he choose to be with her since before we are together. Cause they were close since before I'm in a relationship with him. Why do I choose to compete with her? Why don't I choose to be me? If I choose to be friend with her, at least, instead of competing who give the best present to Iz, we can work together to surprise him. sigh! Honestly, if there is time machine where I can go back to those time, I don't wanna go cause I'm glad and happy with what I have now. I have someone to love and to be love. I met awesome people. I feel blessed with those who always there to support me. The most important thing is, I learnt to let mochi2 to have / hang out / help / or anything that can make me feel jealous with his girl friend(s) BUT he must follow the guidelines given to him. LOL.. sounds like QC.
Wishing you best of luck and have fun! another 365 days coming =) Believe me, anyhing happened for reasons. It just a matter of time for you to know the reasons ^_^
p/s: sorry for make it tooooooo long =P
