There's an article which I was very afraid to read of in Facebook (which is in chinese) and today, I've finally take up my courage to read it. Well, the title of the article was "To the 80s, are you ready for 30s?".
Honestly, I was scare to read about it because I knew what is it talking about before even I read about it. Why? The reason is simple, I Do Not Want To Face The Facts!!! As my tagline goes, "I'm still a little kid". I would like to be in my dream world. Looking/doing stuff like the kids will do. Though it may sounds stupid, but yeah, I enjoyed it. Having some cool dessert, some adventure alone, exploring the neighborhood alone, being a little unique on your phone/car/bike isn't just a privilege for kids/teens! Though the number 3 maybe come soon, but there's a little boy/girl exist in our heart. We are who we are and just be yourself!
One is never too old to do anything. There's no limit on what you can/can't do in the world. Go with your heart, flow with your heart, and enjoy every moment that will soon be the memories of you. No matter it's high or low, up or down, left or right, it's our own memories and some of the memories will keep us moving and reminds us how wonderful things can be.
I've quote the last sentence of the article which says “今天，之所以区别于昨天，恰恰是因为昨天的感受依然在我心中。”, which means, "Today is different that yesterday because yesterday's memories are still running clearly in my heart." Not to deny that I do remember how crazy I was, how adventurous I was, how naive I was, how stupid I was, how poor I was, how hardworking I was, how I was being pampered by my grandma, how good it was during holidays time...etc.. The list can go on and on and on...
Well, as of today, I really felt.. I am old.. After looking back, wow! I've already walked that far. How can I not to admit that I'm old? Deep down, it's hurting as I have to force myself to accept the fact that "I'm old" but still, "I'm still a little boy". =)
Today, last day of April and we are stepping into May in just a few hours!!!
Excited yet worry.. why?
Hopefully the "Chlorine" from the "100 Plus" Logo is strong enough to "clean" away the "stain" on my beloved land..
I'm proud to be a Malaysian even though there are many "News" around the world talking bad about how much the "Stain" in the "management", but nevertheless, Malaysia is my HOME. I Love my hometown PJ, Selangor & I Love You, Malaysia.

Being in Thailand for over a year now, speaking Thai to the local is a usual stuff to do here..
I'm frequently being ask where am I from!
Well, obvious answer of cause, I'm from Malaysia. And guess what, they will normally praise Malaysian for our multilingual society that build us to have strong ability to learn other languages fast!
This is what usually happen when I meet local Thai & started speaking Thai Language with them:
(Translated into English, originating from a Thai Conversation)
Local : Are you Japanese?
ME : Nope!
Local : Oh sorry, you must Thai because you speak Thai Language. (And I guess I do looks a little like Thai..hehe..)
ME : Nope! I'm not Thai.
Local : Oh, are you Chinese then?
ME : Nope!
Local : Huh!? Then where are you from???
ME : I'm Malaysian.. ^^
I'm not Chinese but I'm Malaysian. Why are we splitting ourselves among ourselves???
We are all one big family, and YES! WE ARE ALL MALAYSIAN!!!!
I miss and love my home, Malaysia. I do really hope that with the Unity of the Rakyat, we are able to have a better future on our motherland. I Love You Malaysia. =)

Are you ready for CNY???
Are you excited about CNY???
What is CNY all about???
To me, CNY is like most of the festival we celebrate..
Most of the important festival we celebrate is with the dearest person around us..
Family..partners..bf/gf..close friends... etc..
It's all about a gathering of whom we loved..we care..
I remember when I was young, CNY was the time where I can drink soft drink, eat whatever I like and get ang pau (a.k.a $$ MONEY $$).. Hahaha...
and as we grow older..
Ang pau also is kind of important.. haha.. ($.$)
but spending time with a big family that's really priceless..
As we grow older, eating and drinking needed to be taken care of..
cookies & mandarin oranges has reduce quite a lot for my consumption..
Now, about the new clothing,
hmm.. I'm thinking to get something classics..haha..
like below:
hahahaha...
Lastly, I just waiting to get as many ang pau as the below picture.. hahahahaha... "$.$"
As this will be the last post for the month & year..
I didn't expect to have written this..
"I need a rest"
End of the world not happening and thus, it's a new beginning..
I was planning to go here and there.. but..
I'm finally tired..
physically and mentally..
Am I getting old??
I use to think that, "I need a rest" this term is use by those seniors~!
but now.. I'm using it..
*sigh*
Oh well, ok.. I admit.. I am old..
so do my phone.. haha.. from Antutu benchmark,
it only score 2.5/5 stars even after I've overclocked it with Jelly Bean 4.2.1
Was planning to get a new device during this new year but..
it's kind of a waste cos this HTC Desire HD is still performing quite good.. (at least to me)
So, i decided to give a new soul to it..
Gingerbread 2.3.5 ---> Jelly Bean 4.2.1
1.0GHz ---> 1.2GHz (tested it can go to max to 1.35GHz.. hehe)
Staying at hotel, relaxing doing all this kind of stupid stuff is indeed a joy..
and I truely enjoy it especially it when the suspend of wiping out the old android..
I was so worried that I'll mess up the process.. phew~! I guess I was lucky.. ^^
Exactly a year ago, this date mark the time I left Malaysia for long..
And, in this year.. many of the changes has been brought..
Or, should I said, Environment does change a boy..
Looking back...
I was in Lyon, France, 2nd Largest City in France..
Left my foot print there for about 3 months..
Lyon's Famous Wall Painting..
In fact, it is so real that even looking with your bare eyes you are as if looking a real scene!!!
The Festival of Lights (French: Fête des lumières) in Lyon!!! Nice Lighting Show!!
Chirstmas 2011.. I was in Paris..
Lonely Christmas.. =)
Traveling on the weekends are the usual routine..
Gallo-Fomain Fourviere - was my favourite place of visit so far..
Like back in time.. lolz..
okok.. now, to be honest, the reason why I like it so much is because..
1.) The building structure of the ancient building like this is an art work
2.) The material they use is just so accurate and nice
3.) The precision of all the raw material putting together and make it stood firm is really amazing
4.) The culture of togetherness was seen and felt
Finally, Lyon is snowing.. ^^
My first snow touching... ^^
Then, when the temperature drop down to -7 degree celcius..
I was still going out "to the future".. lolz..
The futuristic design of the building of artist.. the DSLR Apartment..
Next, was the very last visit to the miniature museum..

PS: This is actually posted on 20/12/2012.. Back date this post because I was too busy selecting photos & uploading it.. hahahaha...
First time ever in foreign country, seen a piano performance..
You asked me how was it.. and..
as usual, I answered so so because the performance is just too short..
One surprise before the performance was the entrance ticket..
It's just a card!!!
In conjunction with the celebration of the Queen's 80th Birthday,
each month they have prepared some performance in the Thailand Culture Center..
I'm lucky to meet the piano performance this month..
with the theme name "Greatest Artists of the World 2012"
and the title for today's performance, "Ji-Yong Piano"
Ji-yong (Korean), the youngest pianist ever to win the New York Philharmonic Young Artists Competition at the age of 10 in 2001..
From his posters, I thought he would be someone gentle..
hahaha.. what a surprise.. a casual-formal kind of dressing on stage..
in front of the Grand Piano..
i was feeling a little inappropriate..
well, guess that the audience eyes are different right now..
Seeing him walking out to the piano with the clapping hands as the accompaniment..
Bowing down to the audience.. charming smile..
I'm kind of envy/jealous.. hahaha.. he has done it! =)
With confidence, songs after songs.. without feeling tired of his fingers..
he has continuously played for at least 20mins..
Impressively with the change of tone to the period of the pieces..
he has just done it his way with so much colours painted on it..
Salute!
While enjoying the performance, I'm wondering..
IF.. IF... I've chosen another road..
will I be like him now?
Realizing dreams is really that fun/satisfying?
Questions questions and questions..
I know I don't have an answer for that..
because if I travel back in time,
I'll still remain the same..
Logical sense.. Reality vs Dreams,
how can we balance things out?
who will support and agree with me to take a music degree?
*sigh*
Dream is meant to be a dream..
See it but yet, it's like so far that you can't even reach it..
OK! It's bedtime now and the right time to dream.. ^^
Arghh!!!
I thought I can create 2 blog post per month!!
Seems like my plan is ruined.. =(
Today it's already the 2nd of September!!! >.<
Well, in the first day of September,
I've did something very crazy..
I DROVE IN FOREIGN COUNTRY!!!
Which I have only dream about it before but never really try it..
Plus, it is the new Nissan Slyphy!!!
Oh gosh! That's like a dream come true to me..
The most happiest things in ever happen to me in Tom Yam Land..
Second, I get to enjoy myself with my Boleh Land people..
Which is kind of great!!!
Chit chat whatever things and the channel is so sync!!
There's no need to compare them with the "Tanah Besar" people..
Because, our culture is so much different..
Happy to know I can stay till 1am to post this.. Haha..
I hope September bring many happiness to everyone.. Well at least is a good start..^^
Good night world~~
I never know you will still keep looking at this blog all the time..
even though I've told you I will not update it that frequent..
but yet, you keep looking at this page almost everyday..
(PS: do remember there's a traffic source to trace back.. ^^)
I wonder, is it I am taking too much..
Should I consider the feeling of others more than the feeling of myself?
I figured out.. based on my experiences.. =)
Yes, I am selfish.. I have to be..
I want to have a life of what I want..
Not what I should be..
By doing what I want, no matter is good or bad,
I'm the one who responsible for it..
and I've no one to blame..
Hope you understand..
I never know I'm that selfish.. and..
I never know you are that _______ <-- You fill up yourself.. ^^
Thank you thank you & thank you...
