That Clown Fish Named Nemo

Meh. Go away.

Ultimately, the easiest way is to just not care. And not allow myself to be affected by anyone, or anything. Maybe because I actually do believe so, that's why I am convinced being alone is better.

Rain, I think I don't love you much.

Simply Just Because

"But if I fall for you, I'll never recover. If I fall for you, I'll never be the same."


Love Somebody - Maroon 5

Adam Levine. Shirtless. Woots woots!

Inconsequential. Big word.

You're Gonna Miss Me When I Am Gone


Cups - Anna Kendrick

My day definitely started out on a weird note. But, I am once again reminded about how blessed I am to have all the amazing people in my life, whether they (or you) know it or not.

Dear Lord, thank you, so very much, for all these amazing people!

Sunday's Tune


Richard Clayderman

If the name doesn't sound familiar, I bet the tunes will. No matter what era you were born in.

I am feeling rather proud of myself right now. Finished 7km's this morning! Doing well on my 2013 resolutions so far if you asked me. It's funny how my arm is more sore than my legs though.

As long as you make someone else's life a little better, a little brighter by just being you, I think that's good enough a reason for you to be alive in this world.

That's what I believe.

Saturday Tune


Birdy (Full Album) - Birdy

I think I can be quite funny sometimes. Made a few tweaks to my page as you can see. Liking it? I like it.

I really wouldn't mind ice cream now :) Hmm.

I Am Definitely

A happy drunk. It's a cold night. Perfect cuddle weather. No, zero alcohol in the bloodstream. 7km in 1 day ah!

Damn Cramps

Leave me alone! I think this is what old(er) age does to you.

More Often Than Not

It's a trade off. So I missed one party, but the other wasn't bad either. I am bloated. Or at least I feel bloated. I wish bloatedness isn't a state of being.

Work's been busy, so much so that every minute of being in the office feels like I am doing something. In a good way. I like this feeling.

ODD run in less than 5 days. Die me. Wish me luck.

I think I wanna curl up and just morph into a butterfly. =)

Pizza For Dinner

Wheee, Friday is a holiday. Necessity shopping tomorrow and arrival of guests and my room becomes a hotel room for the night. Glad I managed to clean it up in time!

I know I keep saying it, year after year, that I want expect a surprise party. But really - by not throwing me a surprise, it's a surprise itself. And I really am kidding when I said that I am expecting a surprise, c'mon, I am twenty five a grown up already, you guys gotta stop spoiling me!

Heng's coming home soon for a holiday, but then after that he's taking Wes with him to the States. That leaves me here alone at home. Why is everyone headed for the States. I sad. Well, least then I can wear my ninja shirt that says "I love Ninja's - they took my brothers away".

Except I don't really love Ninja's.

Spring Clean - Success!

My hands are dried up like preserved prunes though. >( Even managed a quick 15mins run, not too bad a Sunday neither.

Inet Be Sucky

Rawr! But ohwell, probably for the better. Good Saturday I must say!

Haunting

"Will you still love me when I am no longer young and beautiful?"


Young and Beautiful - Lana Del Ray

I feel sloppy. The kind where you feel your flabs all folding outwards and you keep pulling your pants up so that your stomach flabs don't fold onto the tip of your trousers. (-__-) Rar! And it doesn't help that all I wanna do all day is nom, and nom and nom more.

Dinner was satisfying though, salmon sashimi, salmon sushi and all that yummies! Craving satisfied, for the time being. Dinner and drinks tomorrow. High tea on Saturday followed by a colleague's baby's full moon party. Think I should spend majority of Sunday cleaning my room (and house) a little since I am expecting guests over the next week.

Sometimes, it's easy to complain about other people, or to be fixated on how you don't like them. Why do they behave this way? Why do they say the things they say? What is wrong with them? How can they be so insensitive? So on and so forth. The answer could be as simple as they may be having a bad day. Or, you're reading too much into it. Or, they're actual as*holes.

Bottom line is, doesn't hurt to try and be a little more empathetic towards others. We have bad days too, don't we? And patience is a virtue. Of course if the other party is confirmed to be Mr or Ms Pain-In-Everyone's-Butt, then, be the bigger person. Do what you can, and if all else fails, just walk away, forget about them. There's more to life than spending that few minutes stewing in anger when it does no one any good. Definitely.

I think I did that relatively well today. /pats self on the back /smiles proudly

I really just wanna wake up tomorrow, stand on the weighing machine and be 48kg's. I am superficial that way, sometimes.

People Have Breakups, I Have Breakouts

Some seriously epic ones. My rice bowl. Poor me.

They're both essentially quite the same though. They hurt for awhile, but give it some time, some proper nurturing and tender loving care, and they'll be okay after that.

Good logic eh - I'm brilliant that way!

5 Statements You Don't Really Have To Know

1. Hand sanitizers are great, especially the awesomely scented ones. But when you have a cut on your hand which you never knew existed, and the hand sanitizer goes on, man it huuuuuurts!

2. The most enjoyable part of packing for me is when it comes to the toiletries section- especially so when you have the 100ml limit for hand carry luggage.

3. My tummy is hungry and it wants to eat ice cream. Feeeeeed me please someone!

4. There are three instances whereby I behave childishly stupid around people. One, when I'm comfortable around you. Two, when I like you enough. Three, when I really really like you.

Today, I made a phone call and went, "Hi! This is Ai Li calling from bla bla bla, may I know who am I speaking to?"

Yes hi, this is so and so..

"Oh hi so and so, this is Ai Li from bla bla bla... 
Oh wait, I already told you that didn't I?"

T___T

I'll add a fourth instance, when I am just blatantly childishly stupid.

5. Hmmmmm, it's raining again, and I still can't tell if I like it or if I dislike it.

It's The Rain I Tell You

The radio is playing If I Lose Myself by OneRepublic. I like this song. But today, a different tune comes to mind.


Shooting Star - Owl City

"Brighter than a shooting star, so shine no matter where you are" - the last time I had a conversation about this song, it was with someone who said this song is very saccharine. I don't remember giving a response to that then. But I like it that it is, I like it that it is saccharine.

Scottie the doggie has been super manja. Maybe because he's still recovering, or it could be that he is just his usual lacking of attention self. He cuddles up to me the moment I sit down next to him, almost as if asking to be patted on the head and asking for someone to tell him that he'll be okay.

Sometimes, humans are like that too, no?

With the general elections over, there's still much talk about it. About how dirty the process was, about how people defended their respective stations, about pretty much everything and anything that could possibly be discussed. And there seems to be a huge majority of people who are working towards a re-election, or something of that sort.

Where do I stand in the midst of all of this? I am not too sure. I am sad of course. Angry, that too. Frustrated, definitely. That said, some things I do agree with, some things I don't.

I am proud that the people has proven that change can and will happen. I am not proud that some people resorted to aggression whether it was justified or not. I am happy that people stood by what they believe in, I am not happy that the elections were not done in the cleanest and most transparent manner. The lists goes on. I bet you have your list too.

At the end of the day, I say this. Dear all fellow Malaysians, stay strong, stay united and let's be the best we can, in all that we do. Nothing more, nothing less. Hahahaha, and as if on cue, the radio plays..


People Like Us - Kelly Clarkson

The rain makes me think weird thoughts. Rather, the rain makes me reflect upon life in a way I don't usually do.

Up until today, I can't tell if I like rain or if I hate it.

Let Her Go


Let Her Go - Passenger

Only need the light when it's burning low. Only miss the sun when it starts to snow. Only know you've been high when you're feeling low. Only hate the road when you're missing home.

Racing some big guns in Hong Kong next week! I knew the lineup was pretty intimidating to begin with, but I think the game has just been leveled up with world number 1, 4, 7, 27 and so on.. What did I get myself into, I scared.

Saturday mornings should be more like this one. The luxuries of sleeping in, followed by a hearty breakfast - strawberry yogurt, fried mushrooms, low fat cereal with full cream milk (I know, the irony) and a cup of Vit C to complete it all.

Now, for the rest of the weekend to be great too.

Dear Friends

There's so much going on, there's no end to conversations about the 13th General Elections happening here in Malaysia. You hear it on the radio channels, read about it in the newspapers, mainstream media, non-mainstream media, social media websites, so on and so forth.

Many are openly sharing their opinions, ideas and views. I, am not about to start a new topic nor am I going to discuss my views about this in depth because like I just said, there's plenty to read about it outside of my blog anyway and I am sure you have your own views and I duly respect that.

Ultimately, I believe nobody is fully correct and nobody is fully wrong. No one human is born perfect, but we can always strive for the best because that is a choice.

So as small as it is, I want to do my part.

In that I, urge you, my dear friends, to vote wisely, make a choice that you would be proud of. Make an informed choice, and whatever your choice may be, whomever your vote goes to, I pray and hope that it is for a better Malaysia.

For a better Malaysia, a safer country, a harmonious nation, a prosperous economy. Amen.

Hello May

Addiction. Seriously.

Read.

One more month plus to go!

P/s: On a more serious note.

There is also the coming elections. In my own way of doing things, I am sharing, please read THIS too, if you have a couple of minutes to spare, and if you cared enough about the future of our country.

3 MORE DAYS TO GO!
