What CNY in Kuantan has done to me :D

okay, so this year.

in kuantan, we had a cooking competition among all the cousins.
the parents and people of the same rank relaxed while we cook.

well,

or rather while we tried to cook :D

the loving mothers couldn't bear to watch us ruin the kitchen so they did help.

anyway,

my brother and I were a team and our theme was : CHICKEN!

being the over semangat one,

we came up with five varieties @@

  

kicap chicken :)

chicken chop with sweet and sour sauce :) [there was another version with chicken sauce which yours trully forgot to snap a picture of]

steamed mushroom topped with minced chicken and mashed potatoes :D

Pray for those who have everything.

Pray for those who have nothing.

cause it's a rat race, a fight in the tiger's den

cause the world is a place where opportunities do not get served to you on a golden platter.

it is meat thrown into a tiger's den.

a den filled with hunger tigers.

desperate for survival.

it's a place where you have to weigh your options.

and make decisions.

fast.

a minute makes a world of a difference. 

cause you have to grab it before its gone.

and be on the top of your game.

i learnt my lesson through subject registration.

a place would not be there indefinitely,

waiting for you.

i felt like those who got it,

made tough decisions too.

those uncomfortable phone calls made.

to let go of one ,

to attain the other.

life lesson learnt.

hm.

choices are rather clear now ain't it?

If Labor Law is allowed, labor law it is.

If it is not allowed,

Int. Trade and Shipping.

I just;

Don't wanna take it alone.

It's gonna be tough.

That i don't mind.

hm. 

decisions decisions.

what a difference 5 mins make.

5 mins.

and the spot for the subject is no longer there.

hmm.

worry.

that is what my heart is filled with right now.

hmm.

stress.

hurm.

Dear Lord,

please.

please.

please let it be okay.

please.

my faith is shaky.

please.

Amen.

cause i have a soft spot for you.

always.

anyway, some pictures from the drama performance :)

 King Henry with Adrian's make up skills :D

 the best crew photo <3 sayang you people lah! :)

 King and his hilarious guards :)

 the safe feeling you get when you are standing between two guards :D

 Princess or pauper? :)

 the (real) Prince Anthony :)

 Everyone in!! :)

 ah, the closing of the gap between the ranks :D

 cause we are awesome like that :D

the maid and the nurse :)

Xiao xin xin ah!

hey you.
yeap you.

I'm worried you know.

You say you know what you want.

I myself can see that you are very clear.

But do you have any idea what this clarity has done to you?
you can be strong.
you can be matured.
but you can;t be a robot.

you keep on telling me you feel no emotions.

that's scary.

that's not human.

you tell me that, this is the real you all this while.

that this is the you, you just never realized.

I miss the crazy emotional roller coaster mess I used to see.

Tears are there for a reason.

Laughter exists for a reason.

Anger prevails for a reason.

Emotions are present for a reason.

the reason is to make us human.

I know you can see things clearly,

I know that your mind is not in the state of denial.

But what about your emotions?

Is it in the state of denial?

I do not know how to help you.

I really do not know what is the right thing to say.

All you should know is that my prayers is always with you;

Our prayers are always with you.
You know that we will stand by you every step of the way.
I am sad when I see you sad.
But to see you emotionless,
it's scary and even more heartbreaking.
I know you are a fighter, you have always always been one.
But this sort of battle is different,
and you must not loose yourself in the process.

My little star, 

come back , okay?

drama was awesome :)

everything went well!

Praise the Lord!

In times of doubt, just say a prayer.

He will know what to do.

cheers! :D

梁美玲，

不要怕。

如果今晚真的做到不好的话，

下一次就做好一点啦！

过了今晚的十一点半就没事啦。

你可以的！

加油！

Ignore the rant, it's been a long day.

During times like this I just fail to understand why I put myself into this kind of situation.

Go to university study lah!

Student right?

Main job is to study right

Why the need to join so many activities?

Assistant director lah, debate lah, this lah, that lah.

Supposed to study then study lah.

Do well.

Simple right?

Silly girl.

The booth look like crap ur problem meh?

No planning your probem ah?

Event fail ur problem meh?

Not enough debaters for training your problem meh?

People don't come for rehearsal also your problem meh?

Their marks what, not yours also.

Think you are God ah?

Cannot make everyone happy one.

Siao one lah this girl.

Walaoeh. 

Can die weyh like that.

.

Never underestimate gratitude.

Never underestimate the power of a simple thank you, 

especially when everyone is feeling like crap.

especially when failure to plan is the reason behind it all.

especially when that failure is on your part.

Cause one day,

one day that person might just fling those papers into your face and walk away.

Cause one day that person would just say,

I give up.

Good luck with that.

Than you would realize just how deep the shit is.

yeah, the one that you are sinking into.

so many things to say.

yet so many other things to complete.

so for now,

HAPPY 2012!

May the best of your yesterdays be the worst of tomorrow.

God bless,

and give thanks!

For we are still here to enjoy today :)

cheers!
