2nd Marathon of the year

If any of you would remember back in June, me and my friends participated in KL Marathon sponsored by Standard Charter Bank (SCB). Again, this month, we participated another marathon sponsored by SCB but this time was in Singapore.

I don't know about other, but myself was pretty excited slash nervous. I've no time for training at all. I was busy and away at most time.

Dennis's on the GPS with his iphone

Ted fully concentrated on the road

After we reached Singapore, Ted realized something. He forgot his precious camera bag at home in Johor Bahru. T_T|| poor thing had to drive all the way back to Johor Bahru to grab the bag and find us again in Singapore.

Frustrated Ted

While Ted was stuck in the jam at the Causway, we were collecting our race packs at Singapore Expo

Yes, we did the 10km again.

The marathon was really organized; very supportive cheers; a lot of participants; such an awesome trip of mine ever.

I was quite surprise I pulled it off. As I mentioned, I wasn't trained at all. Well, basically, I jogged once in two weeks before the marathon but that shouldn't be.

Next year target, half marathon. Dennis, are you up for this? hahaha
Will see whether or not I can do it. *wings*

Next: Singapore trip

3rd trip to Cambodia of the year

*blurk* I have so many posts to update O.o||
I've been away for about two weeks, spent 10 days in Cambodia and 3 days in Singapore.
It was the awesome and sort of wake up trips after all.

Let me show you some randoms photo while I was in Cambodia. Oh btw, I was there for working, not holidays... how sad. But I managed to spend time with family during the weekend.

Through the plane's window

The sky is superb~

It was considered another tight deadline and busiest trip I've ever had.
Let me tell you why is it a wake up call trip...
Normally when I was back home, my family or relatives will ask the following questions

Are you dating?
When are you going to get married?
Are you coming back here?
etc.

But this time, they add one more question

When are you buying a house?

O.o|| waloa... I was really like ermmmm...when? I also don't know. How?
Am I really that old or what do they call the right age to start think of this bit commitment?
Now I have to work my buttom off to be able to answer all such questions or be able to just do it at any point of time... >_<" wish me luck...


Next: 2nd Marathon of the year

p.s. more photo of Cambodia's trip @ my facebook *smiles*

Mom always tells me to take good care of myself. She does not know very much detail what I've been up to and going through everyday.
Life is a bitch sometime, but it's still good.

Some might wonder how could I survive alone all by myself in a foreign country. I'm no super woman, just like you, sometime I am dependent on something or someone.

What mom does not know as well is that I have a little family here with me. A little family that I could hold on to (most of the time).

Family of couple of people

People whom I share joy and tears with

People whom fill in my glass with warm and care

People whom I enjoy spending time with

People whom I share the same plate with

People whom believe in me


Every bit of moment, I am blessed and I believe in.

That's my little family.

what more could I ask for Christmas?

I've been away too long, too often

Before you hit the highway
You better stop for gas
There's a 50 in the ashtray
In case you run short on cash
Here's a map and here's a Bible
If you ever lose your way

Just one more thing before you leave
Don't forget to remember me

That's how the song goes...

Remembering of my mom's long hugs, asked me to take good care and dad's longed face after he kissed goodbye at the airport.

...and my tears rolled down the cheeks while taking the flight back to KL.

I've never seen my dad with such sad face...
I guess I've been away too long, too often :(

I am now back in Cambodia, in fact I'm here to work for about a week.
With the amount of workload and time line, I tend to see things differently and solve things in different direction. Some are good and some are not. Maybe it's the environment and/or the people I'm working with.

One day or another I felt so frustrated and unappreciated, then I started to google around (yeah, the term google means Search) for something to read.
I read motivational quotes, I read motivational stories.
Funny right? How can one feel different by just reading those? I don't know, I just can.

Obstacles are the things we see when we take our eyes off our goals.

There's so much of life to live. - quaintly.net

These words, keep me going. These thoughts keep me living.
Put a smile on your face, you'll never know who would fall in love with your smile.

Have a wonderful weekend everyone~

Night @ Brussels

Went out to Brussel @ Jaya1 area to meet up with KB, our ex-colleague. It was quite a night, many of us went together. Caught up with old friends and got to know new faces.

That's right, we are beer drinker.

Jia Yin and Kah Wai

Hoegaarden is officially one of my favorite beer

Nick, who wish not to be tagged in facebook while drinking...

Our superwoman who can drink every night and back to work on the next day at 8am, Ms. Kah Wai

KB and Scott, the couple

Our soon-to-be-a-full-timer, Richie

After the first session with KB, we stayed on till 3am and enjoy among ourselves.

After that night, I decided to quit...errmmm...eh hemm...errmmm smoking.
Now my friends are counting the days... see how long I would last O.o||
That's very supportive of them...

Get going...

I've been really off from blogging and other activities that I should be doing.
To be frank, I have no motivation to carry on what I have set for myself. It's sort of ruined. No one to be blame. I, as a human, sometime take thing very seriously and/or for granted.

I always tell myself to be very positive and chin up to succeed what I have planned for. And I always tell myself not to blame anyone or anything, for that reason, I am myself the one who choose my own path to walk. Day to day, I am getting weaker and dependent on things that I am wishing for. This is not a great idea, indeed.

It's time to seek my own passions and hit the road. I am no longer sitting and awaiting for hands to pull me up or someone to pour the juice of love over my dry soul.

You know what I like to do when I felt that I am lost? I will seek for spiritual thoughts and motivation. Seeing the truth of what I have and don't. What others have and don't, will give me a little hope on the road and the thought of who I am and where I am today...
If any of you feel the same, I hope you can get back on track and carry on your beautiful life...

Remember, always chin up~

lots of updates

It's been Couple of weeks I've stopped living my regular life.
I just repeat the routine and the circle of the living being from the awaken time to the end of the night. Avoid the distraction and remembering things that I do not wish to forget is not easy.
Things changed, I barely adapt to it but I'm trying. It's really hard.
Every now and then, I found myself sitting at the edge of the bed and washing my face with tears. Or all of the sudden, I found all the courage and live frugally with surprise and confident.
I'm losing it. I'm tired.

"Even though I'm gone but your life doesn't stop here, and so does mine."

Here's the update for the past two weeks that I've been idle...
