Random Swim Day

Was thinking to have a swim before continue the war of exam.

Coincidentally Zuer date me for it and yayyy excited!

At first, i am still considering to go or not to go.

and i decided to step out of my comfort zone without having my usual gang there.

"You will gain something new if you stepped out of your comfort zone"

I was so blessed that i am one step closer to few of them.

we might be seldom talk in class, less communication and so, but it is not too late thou.

Thanks for the wonderful evening. 4 rounds of swim and other time was laughter around. 

Friendship always built, when things coming to an end.

Hopefully we are keeping in touch in the future.

法語與西班牙語 French & Spanish

Thanks to my course, my university, provide me such a precious opportunity in learning language.

I have learnt French for about 3 years on and off since diploma.

and in this last semester of bachelor, i have to choose an elective between Spanish and Digital Media,

such a follower like me has chosen Spanish as my gang choose so. :p

However, i am really proud of myself for learning both of it although I am only in Level 1.

Sometimes i was thinking, i can speak French better than Hokkien. *embarrassing*

I have learnt french for 3 years, and i need to absorb Spanish for this semester.

At first, i did not want to put effort on it as it is too much for me.

I tend to confuse French Spanish French Spanish and it becoming Frenish.

The feeling of Urghh!! because both of it have lots of similarity. 

feeling wasted to my French if I've forgot about them like that. :/

They are so many vocabulary from Stationary, Things in the house, Time, Description and blahhh!

People used to said, relationship always built only when you are leaving.

Totally agree with it! At last during final exam, i have put so much effort on Spanish.

I try to stuck as much as vocab in my brain and feeling unbelievable. 

In final, i answer with full confident. I start to miss this subject. 

I always believe extra language is easier to score, because we are learning what a kid learn.

Everything has come to an end.

3 more papers and I am done with Bachelor.

I told myself, I need to go for language course, either Spanish and French.

I do not want it to be wasted. However, I was thinking, what can i do with it?

Feeling confused.

法國之旅隨寫

在法国的十天，星期一至四都得自己走路去火车站到学校去。

有好几天都是撑着伞，好无奈。

一直都在盼望这蓝天，蓝天的景色一定让我赞不绝口。

最后的两天终于有机会拍下晴朗的Toulouse, 好爱！

很多人问我，你去法国干嘛呀？就……游学啊。

我觉得去观校，Presentation，文艺表演也只不过是其次。

很多时候，时间就这样白白浪费了。尤其是等了几个小时的 Presentation。

由于秋天四点多五点，天空就开始黑了，放学后迫不及待地跑去市中心购物。

好爱乱跑乱买乱吃亂拍的感觉，這就是我所愛。

旅行，是為了學習一種久違的擁抱
擁抱藍天，擁抱大海，擁抱自然，擁抱最初的自己。

Authentic or not, who cares?
Most importantly, Relax and enjoy.

Life in Toulouse Part 1

 Finally arriving at Toulouse after 6 hours of TGV experience.

An overview of what we have done during the 6 hours.

We were too lucky to have the last coach, coach 10, which have only 16 seats.

and all of the seats were occupied by our group.

It was like a party area for us, perhaps.

During the 6 hours, some where sleeping, chit-chatting, watching movie, reading and playing.

As for me, i didn't get to sleep. I was playing cards at first.

and then busy taking photos, and then started our pantry and continue playing cards.

Most of us were starving as there were no food being served in the train.

Well, we did not know whether is it legal to boil hot water in the train, but we did.

All thank to Estella for the water boiler, and we enjoyed Sour Spicy Instant Noodle from China.

Like a happy kid. ;))

Below is the view of our coach. Left side were playing Big 2, 

and right side were playing Mahjong Cards.

Right picture was our water boiler and the yummy noodle! excited!

We get our room yay! This was Residence de Brienne.

 For the few days in France, i was staying with my "Package" - Zhinin.

This was my room for few days in Toulouse. and i like it.

With small little kitchen, decent bed, table and etc.

Not sure about the exact amount i paid, but rate in website was 220 euro per night.

Life in Toulouse was peaceful compare to Paris.

People here were friendlier. Probably it is not as touristic area as Paris.

Although it was said to be not so many pickpocket there,

But i am still under stressed that pickpockets are around.

This is just outside my residence. Loving such scenery!
People were jogging around this river.

A plain signage gained my attention as well. And the Autumn leaves. 

I think i should really blog about my trip to France.

it was such a great experience that i wouldn't want to forget.

Le Bistrot du Papé, Toulouse

I always believe that, god is arranging my life.

Everything happens for a reason and that's something call FATE!

It was 2nd day in Toulouse and we were planning to visit to a restaurant which only opened at 8.30pm.

We waited for more than 1 hour and the restaurant did not has the sign to open and we decided to give up and move on to fill up our stomach. Fyi, most of the restaurants and shops in France closed at 5pm. We hardly see restaurants that operate till this late. Moreover, that was on a Sunday night.

From far, we saw a restaurant that still has its lights bright open and we decided to have a look.

Crossing over traffic lights and roads, and we are here. 

Standing outside of the restaurant, viewing over the menu and the owner walked out.

He was wiping a wine glass and ask "How can i help you?"

"We were looking for food."

"What type of cuisine are you looking for, If you are looking for french cuisine, i can recommend you this and that, if you are looking for Asian cuisine, this and that and start telling us where we can find it"

First thing come into our mind is that, he is trying his best to help us! without recommending his restaurant at first. He started to ask for our budget and we were fine with 20 euro per person.

He then said, he can make it three course meal for us within the budget.

Finally, we found a decent place to settle down, and prepare to satisfy our hunger.

He is really friendly and welcoming us like we met before. I admire him as he can operate a restaurant on his own. He is the owner, he is the chef, and the waiter. Salute!

He then introduce us what is he going to prepare for Starter, main course and desert.

Before the starter is ready, he serves as with a big bowl of crackers! Our eyes O.O

and then of course with some breads dip with vinegar and olive oil.

Then, he serves us Smoked Pork Platter as starter. At first, It don't seem like suit me much, as i thought of very raw. When i chew it, it tastes different with what's on my mind. Taste good! and even better with tomatoes! Not forget to mention, the tomatoes are huge and sweet!

I usually don't eat tomatoes in Malaysia. but i am able to finish more than half of it!

*proud of myself*

Before the main course is being served, it left limited space in our tummy.

We went to the kitchen, to watch him cook walk around like our own house.

Risotto is then ready for us!

The shrimps are huge and fresh. I love it so much! Each of us get 5 shrimps!

Chef even thought us how to peel shrimp in an easier way with knife and fork.

I personally dislike the heavy white wine taste in the risotto. because i will feel dizzy after.

However, another 4 of my friends that it tastes perfect! you can give it a try if you are there.

When we are having our main course, chef serve us with white wine. 

Such a perfect dinner!

Our tummy is now totally space-less! :O

but when chef serve us with caramel ice-cream with cream,

we have no excuse to resist! Although we were really full, but all of us are able to finish it.

Imagine the tastiness. ;)

Last but not least, 

a group photo with pape before we leave. 

Address:

Le Bistro du Papé - le Saint Germain

31 Allee de Brienne, 31000 Toulouse

Reservation is needed if you are in a big group!

We visited this restaurant another day, again. not by purpose, but fate.

will update you all again, with the best oyster in town. 

P/s: Ignore my past tense and present tense. Idk which to use :p

Me and Myself in France

Some quotes i remember, it says

"You will realize how beautiful one place is,

when you come home and rest your head on a familiar pillow."

which i think is kinda meaningful. 

I was missing home one week ago, 

and now I am missing the place that i have mingled for 10 days.

Forget about the pickpockets, forget about the rude and dirty,

I would use Stress-free to describe my life in France.

The life you can totally blank your mind out, just be a blind follower ;)

not to mention about some minor unhappy things,

I do enjoy shopping, food hunting, taking photographs and of course their amazing architectures!

I love this place, love the friendly locals, and love their language as well.

I like it when i try to ask questions in french, and i understand their replies.

But too much of walking was a little torture. I love to explore, but dislike the pain.

I love to explore blindly, without knowing where am I, as long as i know where i stay.

I love to view on everything and anything, especially something unique.

I love to take my own sweet time, without people rushing me.

I love to spend money depending on mood. Right mood, buy without much concern.

I love to smile to stranger who smile at me, like we met before.

Lastly, i believe in fate. Everything happen for a reason, for my good.

Do not regret on what you've done or what you've not done.

Just let it be.

This is how my travel behavior.

I am who I am <3

First Step on Europe

Europe seems like a very dream and elegant destination for some of the people.

It applies to me few years ago, i tend to admire people who travel or study in Europe.

I can't deny that i am such a lucky girl who have an opportunity to step of Europe land.

Even my family members have not visited over. 

Probably not because of financial constraint, but more to time constraint. 

Hopefully they will be there one day, such a beautiful land.

Oh forgot to mention, i was there for 10 days Educational Trip. Paris - Toulouse.
Sincerely thanks to my parents and boyfie who sponsored me. Feeling loved.

More than 24 hours in airport and plane includes transiting in Dubai.

I was kinda amazed by Time difference. Such a strange thing.

I have spent 30 hours of Halloween in Malaysia, Dubai as well as France.

I have confused how many meals have i taken. Felt like a boss in the plane. 

Movie, Eat and Sleep and it repeats.

Reaching at Paris about 8pm local time. 

Due to jet lagged and tiredness, what appeared in my mind was "Just another place"

Checked in at HotelF1 Paris Porte de Chatillon and settled down. 

As we have 266 students flood into this hotel at once, the wifi is hardly connected. :(

The weather was cooling and windy. I admit that i have underestimate the weather.

Walk along the street at that night, get some groceries at a shop that still operating.

Take a deep breath of air in France.

And the song "Sound of Silence" appeared in my mind and accompany until i fell asleep.

[Sound of Silence]

Hello darkness, my old friend 
I've come to talk with you again 
Because a vision softly creeping 
Left its seeds while I was sleeping 
And the vision that was planted in my brain 
Still remains 
Within the sound of silence 

In restless dreams I walked alone 
Narrow streets of cobblestone 
'Neath the halo of a street lamp 
I turned my collar to the cold and damp 
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light 
That split the night 
And touched the sound of silence 

Moment of happiness

This was the first weekend i return from France. 

and my birthday was hidden in somewhere within the france trip.

A warm birthday celebration planned by my love at 

Ciccio Pasticcio Ristorante Bar Pizzeria, Changkat Bukit Bintang

I told my love that i would like a cake with candles on my post birthday celebration with him.

Because on my 21st birthday, I have not made any wishes! that was my concern :p

The moment of happiness when the manager brought out the cake without my notice,

and such a surprise as he told me we were not going to have it here.

It was a great dinner with him. simple yet lovely.

I love him as much as he does. ;)

Moment of happiness last forever.

Loneliness leads to Insanity

Yesterday was such a doom day for me.

People around might think that i'm a very sociable person,

especially high school mates as that is my impression to them.

I would say, I was, but not anymore.

There was a party for all the scholarship holder.

Fyi, scholarship holder has to work for 140 hours per year in uni to avoid being pull out.

As for me, i have not involved in any on the second year.

I thought, being a helper in this party will give me a chance to interact with scholars.

because i do not have friends who involve in this scholar thingy, i am worried of lonely.

But everything turns up was speechless, as in it wasn't what i thought.

It was a rainy day yesterday, and their plans get interrupted.

I am in the team of Games and Performance.

Performance didn't seem to be part of me as we only got brief about games.

Games were delay due to rain at the university square.

As a Games team, I didn't know what is going on and when i ask what's the plan in Whatsapp group, nobody gives me response. 

Everyone has their own classmates as their friends, how could i just mix in like that. It would be such a passer by and will get ignored.

Well, I ate alone, i walk alone,

and decided to sit alone at one of the staircase.

I was too tired.

Thanks for the day. Time wasting.

Weekend @ Grand Lexis, Port Diskson

These days, i worked (photo booth) with my love when there is a chance.

Last few weekend was in Malacca and last weekend was in Port Dickson.

Although we were there for working purpose, but i do enjoy the short term scenery in the car.

Short term as in, weather changed too quick, and sunset only last for a quarter.

Loving the blue skies, blue seas (imagine), fluffy clouds and sunset to farewell for the day.

Grand Lexis was pretty grand. not funny i know :p 

We were there for Volkswagen Family Day and due to time constraint i do not get to explore the whole place. Hoping for another chance to visit this place ;)

On road with love is such a happiness moment.

Guardian Angel 守护天使

看完冲上云霄２大结局最后的独白，

他似暗示了我什么的。希望从今我得慢慢学会如何守护我们的恋情，

期待修成正果的那一天到来。

冲上云霄 (II) 2 - 第43集大结局

顧夏陽 Cool 魔（張智霖飾）獨白

我開始相信Guardian Angel（守護天使）背後的意義。

有人說緣分天註定，但是在現實的世界，

你以為真的靠天賜良緣就可以終生美滿嗎？

所有可以修成正果的關係，其實都是靠人為，

是靠兩個人無時無刻的努力，用心經營，

當然不可以吊兒郎當，否則漫漫人生，

怎麼可以天長地久守護對方？

說到守護一個人，重點是要守護到底，不過說倒容易，做就很難，

就算對朋友對家人，大大小小的考驗根本數之不盡，

不過只要你沒有把考驗當作傷痕，懂得忘記和原諒，那就恭喜你了，

你已經掌握到守護一個人最大的竅門，而且過後你一定會感激，

有這些大大小小的考驗，陪你們一起成長，

無論好日子還是壞日子，都有人和你並肩作戰，

輸了一場仗，贏了一場仗，都有人等你回來，

和你一起笑，一起哭，你守護他，他守護你，多麼溫馨。

不過，大家也別以為，守護天使只懂得守護情人、朋友、家人，賣力用心、周到妥帖，

還有一班我的同行，他們每個都和我一樣，明白這套制服的重量，

他們會以你的安全舒適為最大的依歸，無數守護天使在每程航班上面發光發熱，他們就是希望，

你可以開開心心地在天空上面翱翔，飛去你想去的地方，見你想見的人，令你願望成真。

所以說每架飛機，每個機場，守護天使總有一個在附近。

不過，我一直想不通一個問題，

就是世界上到底先有Triangel（緣分天使），還是先有Guardian Angel（守護天使）？

你是因為守護一個人，所以和他結緣，還是因為你和他有緣，註定會守護對方一生一世？

♥

Hold On!

Life has been going up and down like a roller coaster.

These are all expected before.

All I need is time to adapt.

Urgh! Not cool at all.

I felt extremely jealous viewing other couple travelling around.

It was like I keep travel without him and he keep travel without me.

I just need a short trip but things weren't turn out well.

Chill babe chill.

It is just a time matter, I believe.

Hold on there, you will get what you want, SOON.

Hopefully.

Keep waiting

I know and I knew,

your days have been extremely busy.

But, i am still trying my luck on getting your warm greetings.

Is that really hard to even send a smiley face over?

You said it will be over soon.

Make sure you keep your promise, and i will be waiting here.

You know i love you.

and i hope you do.

痛恨

没错，我是痛恨我自己。

当你爱到无可自拔时

会认为对方做的每一件事，都符合不了自己的要求

情为何物？

是开心的？是伤心的？是痛恨的？是无奈的？

三条友 | 去郊游

这个星期，半学期假期。

庆幸的是我没有一个人呆在家里胡思乱想。

这两天，生活都很充实

但充实的生活得付上金钱的代价，呵呵。

我和这两位久违的友人度过了这美好的两天。

没错，他们就是小君君和万姐姐（万杰）。

昨天一通意外的电话，就和他们一起去麦叔叔吃了午餐。

午餐后，在君君家打麻将。

打完麻将，就准备去 RM5.80 的卡拉OK。

高歌完，就去了附近的家乡火锅。

然后再约去附近的Snowflakes 吃吃爽。

天啊，这就是爽，也是胖！

他们真的已成为了我生活中的一部分。

而今天，我们却误打误撞，一起去打羽球了。 

相信下次的见面会是不久的将来。

The Lost Soul

灵魂 | 失去

亲爱的泰迪，

这几年的我，很在意别人的眼光。

从今天开始，我再也不要活在别人的世界里。

生活规律已经完全被打乱，失去了生活的意义。

为什么我好像在为一个人生活，而不是为自己而活？

大学生涯里，我错过了太多。

我败给了孤单，败给了寂寞。

自责人家，不如自责自己，一切都是自己的选择。

是自己放不开，是自己泛浅，自己不修养。

泰迪，谢谢你的聆听。

没人听我讲，就让你听我讲吧。

一股怨气

虽说我们已庆祝了三周年，但接下来的路依然艰辛。

毕竟有成长了一年，人生苦短，还有很多要完成的事。

我依然心里有说不服，心中那份怨气还存在着。

我找不到任何理由让他就这样地去一回。

为什么就是有这样的人，默默地搞砸我们。

虽然他说好多话来哄回我，
但是，总觉得太虚为了。
没错我是真的很想很想陪他一起去，
毕竟课业依然很重要。

那股怨气迟迟灭不了。
我想象不到，他回来后的照片，会令我非常激动。

Japanese Food in a row

30th December 2012,

To welcome the year of 2013, Kim had invited some of his friend for a little social gathering.

It was kinda Rojak as some are his colleagues, colleague's friends, and high school friends. 

for the girls all are attached to one of it. ;D

We went to Umaiya Japanese Restaurant, Puchong Branch for Weekend Buffet Lunch.

Half year back, it was only RM56 nett. and now it has raised to 68 nett if i'm not mistaken.

The menu of buffet lunch had changed. However, the food quality still remain.

Maybe too much of sashimi in one shot, i couldnt really taste the fresh and sweetness of it.

The service was excellent. and this bunch of Rojak actually ordered 6 jugs of Tiger Beer,

as it was free flow. non of them get drunk btw.

So the dining table was full of jokes, everyone do enjoy their food i guess.

---------------------------------------------------

1st January 2013, This was in Ichiban Boshi, Sunway Giza Branch. 

This is to celebrate the beginning of the year, lol.

actually it was merely another gathering with Student reporter gang.

I personally love Ichiban Boshi's Salmon sashimi, as it is fresh and juicy enough.

They are very generous to give you a big pieces unlike other restaurant, just fit to the rice.

The new thing i try on that day was this Mentaiko Scallop.

Mentaiko sauce is the best thing if you love salty and heavy one.

the scallop is BIG and worth for the price. about RM16.90.

The Salmon platter is RM19.90, which is enough to fill my hunger.

---------------------------------------------

201314, 4th January 2013. 

As Kim had bought some voucher from Living Social,

4 of us went to Mikan, Maju Junction Mall to have random dinner

which are Babycherly, William, Kim and Me.

The voucher was RM60 of cash voucher for RM29. Kim bought 3 eventually.

5 pcs for RM28

Chawan mushi RM18 with crab meat

Soft shell Crab RM24

Well, One word for Mikan Japanese Restaurant, Overrated.

We had ordered some other Maki, which price range around RM22-36

Dining for 4 people spent around RM260, including tax.

The Nigri Sushi is super expensive, which is about RM20 for one piece.

I will definitely not visiting this restaurant again. ;D

Although the ambiance was slightly high end and comfort.

Owh, i had visited another newly open Japanese restaurant today.

Kiraku Japanese Restaurant. Coming next :)

New year . New hope 2013

Time flies,

i am stepping into 21st this year.

Too many thoughts in my mind, just let it be in my mind. :)

There is one main thing i would like to achieve this year.

" Appreciate More, Less Complains "

Everything can be wonderful, it depends on how you think.

Maybe a short summary of me in some aspects?

Family, i have learnt to appreciate them. Talk to them, accompany them.

However, it is yet not enough, i will accompany them whenever i can.

Relationship, i am blessed to have him with me through everything.

I will control my anger, be more understanding in securing our relation.

Health, health problem seems to attack me starting in 2012.

My stomach was not so well since them, unlimited supply of stomach wind appeared.

20 years, i had never go for body checkup. will do it soon, hopefully.

Studies, I had been hang in the same level since i started my degree.

Everything seems not improving while looking at my classmates creative brain.

I am gonna work hard on this. 

Friends, people come, people go :)

appreciate what i should appreciate. short and simple. ^,^

Happy New Year, once again!
