Seasons Greetings.

Okay..I decided that falling sick on a Christmas is not nice at all =/ (because you're missing out on the whole christmas atmosphere) Okay.. although I don't celebrate Christmas..still still..somehow I just like the whole Christmas atmosphere. You know..pretty decos at the mall, exchanging gifts just for the thought and fun of it, being able to go out rather than to stay home and rest.. :S Ok i got to stop whining..=S well to look on the bright side, at least there are still Christmas shows to watch at home :)
Anyway..

Here's wishing all
(even if you might not celebrate xmas)
A
MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR!
:)

Signing off,

dear fever, please go away a.s.a.p.

Ohh just one more thing before I step down,
p/s: Thank You All for the Christmas & New Year wishes, appreciate it lots :)

Just a Moment of Silence.

I'm back from camp! Sadly, my camera couldn't tag along with me, hence i do not have any pictures of camp with me at the moment. =/

Anyways, just to sum things up, camp this year was good overall. Younger ones are starting to take over, taking on various roles, which is a good thing. We, or rather I am considered one of the old ones already..(young at heart always though :D). Well, after what has happened last year, I guess it is a wake up call for us all, on how short life can be. (I agree with the statement made my stephen).

A young boy named Benjamin, at a mere age of 15, was drowned in a pool. No one knew exactly why and how it happened but when they found him, he was all purple and pale. Quickly he was rushed to the nearest hospital thereafter, but it was a little too late. He passed on.

Well, I believe this particular incident would come back to haunt us every now and then, with it being the first tragic incident which ever happened throughout so many years of camp now.

Nevertheless, it is a constant reminder to us all on how brief life can be, irregardless of how young or old you may be. So who are we to decide how much time we have left? For what is life? Is it not only a vapour which appears for a little while and then vanishes away?

Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring forth. (Prov 27:1)
How true. But when that day comes..can we say: "I've lived my life with no regrets.." or will we say: "I wished i had a little more time..", leaving this world full of regrets, thinking that we should have done this or that. But just when you start to realize, would it not be a little too late?

Someone once said:

"It's not the years in your life that counts,
but the life in your years."

Heartfelt.

The most beautiful things in the world are not seen nor touched.

They are felt with the heart.

So it is said that:

"What doesn't kill you only
makes you stronger."

Hmm.

Loser vs Victor

He was beaten from the start,
Beaten by his doubting heart,
And he had a ready ear
For the busy tongue of fear,
And he had a timid mind
Unto fretfulness inclined,
Filled with many reasons why
It was vain for him to try.

Given a task he'd shake his head,
"Can't do that!" he often said,
"Times are hard and none will stay,
Listening to the words I say.
It is futile now to try,
People simply will not buy!"
Thus he walked the streets of trade,
Both discouraged and afraid.

But another kind of man
Thought this way: "Perhaps I can!"
If i will supply the pluck,
Fortune may provide the luck.
If i have the grit to try,
There are people who may buy;
Anyhow, I'll not submit
To defeat before I'm hit."

One was beaten from the start,
Beaten by his doubting heart,
Beaten when he gave his ear
To the busy tongue of fear.
But another with his chance
Seized the moment to advance,
And came home happy at night
Just because he dared to fight.

A Dazzling Christmas?

Red Christmas @ Sunway Pyramid :D

So it was a beautiful Monday where our family went to The Sun & Surf for a buffet dinner. We got to walk around in Sunway Pyramid for a while before the clock struck 6 evening. Yin was back from Singapore And in conjunction with Daddy's belated birthday, we once again had the opportunity to enjoy the 50% discount of some credit card bonus at the Sun & Surf cafe, located at Sunway Hotel.

FRIDAY

28/11/08 - Friday

A day not to be forgotten. :D

So it was the last day of the week before Blackout Bistro goes on a 1 month break xD
For the past few days now, the college has been pretty much quiet because most courses are having their holidays now =/ Therefore sales this week were not as good. Nevertheless, we all had a great time working together.

Personally I would like to thank each one of the Friday team members, for being so helpful and cooperative throughout and yes, indeed it is my honour to be given the opportunity to work with such a wonderful team! ;D In no particular order, i shall list down all of their names.
Chee Hong, Joo Li, Ivan, Chern Yang, Jue Lyn, Ming Chang, Soon Ming, Isaac, Annabel, and also not forgetting people who've helped out here and there previously, like Chee Khong, Jacklyn, Wai How and Ruby. THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH! Words alone are not enough to express my gratitude towards all of you, but well, I do really appreciate what you've all done. I guess we make a pretty good team afterall :) (well hopefully the shift next semester remains the same xD, LOL ok well i guess it depends on our various schedules and all that)

Anyway, we had some kind of a farewell dinner on this day (because there was so much leftovers xD), well because who knows if we'd be in the same team again next sem, right?

And I have to say, in the beginning, i did not know some or rather most of them that well, but for the past 1 month of working together, it has given me the opportunity to know each one on a more personal level, I mean at least we talk more now! xD So that's one thing i'm grateful for, and I do enjoy working with all of the Friday team members, or rather all of you (if any one of you happened to be reading this teehee), really! :)

So anyway, here I would like to express my biggest gratitude to all of you once again..
THANK YOU!!!

:)

and I shall put a stop here, before i go on and on and on..well they say 'short and sweet' is always the best, isn't it? ;D

Signing off,
Friday! *hearts*

Picture Blogging?

Because it all started on Wednesday...

26/11/08 -Wednesday
So I went to college in the morning for a student photo shoot thingy. Got a lift from Wee Wee as I was out of transport. Later in the afternoon, there was a discussion at Bukit Tinggi Mcds for our Friday's Special. and After 3 or more times of planning followed by cancellation (^^''), the three of us, Caleb, Wee Han and myself, finally managed to meet up with Ms.Subha once again, in her shop. By the way, Ms.Subha, whose a very kind and friendly lady, agreed to help us out in our business plan presentation by giving a brief talk relating to our business plan. As a simple token of appreciation, we got her a cheesecake with a 'Thank you' on top and a card as well.

The one in blue is Ms.Subha.
(taken right before we left)

By the way, Ms.Subha owns a flower shop, a very pretty one :D It's located at Bayu Perdana, called 'Say it with Flowers.' Do check it out if you can :)

next stop...Jeth Cafe!!!
Why?
because there was a belated birthday celebration for both my cousins/relative, Iona (who says i'm a horrible liar =/) LOL, and also a small farewell for Caleb who left for Aussie on Thursday.

We'll let the pictures do the talking.

Our 2 honoured guest of the evening =P

In between there was this candid session, and also, we met a friend, Wey Chin who happens to be Brandon's former school mate as well.
So this is what happened.

Then we met up with Ivan and Chern Yang and somehow ended up playing with the fishes in fish spa, the place where they both work.





so both Iona and myself found a comfy room with comfy chairs! :D (oops, not sure if we're allowed to take pictures teehee)



The return of Wee Han and Janelle..
