夜。。

凌晨四点， 依然无法入睡。

喜欢的音乐萦绕着耳边，顽皮的小野猫在房里到处乱蹦乱跳， 虽然防碍工作但也幸好有它的陪伴。。

工作完毕后， 身体已很疲累但脑袋还不肯休息，于是就流览朋友的部落格，发现了令我很感动的这一段：

爱一个人，要了解也要理解；要道歉也要道谢；要认错也要改错；要体贴也要体谅；是难忘而不是遗忘；是宽容而不是纵容；不要随便牵手，更不要随便放手。

爱一个人，要爱他的一切。无论这个人咫尺天涯还是近在眼前，都要为彼此坚定的守住那份只属于你们自己的信念。

真的，既然爱了，就别轻易放手。

--摘自Winson 《爱情，不知道哪一站才是终点》

圣经曰：

"爱是恒久忍耐，又有恩慈；爱是不嫉妒，爱是不自夸，不张狂，不作害羞的事，不求自己的益处，不轻易发怒，不计算人的恶，不喜欢不义，只喜欢真理；凡事包容，凡事相信，凡事盼望，凡事忍耐；爱是永不止息。"（《新约·哥林多前书》第1 3章）

Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant nor rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice in wrong doing, but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends. 　
　
从古到今不知有多少人因这段话而坚信基督，基督教是"爱的宗教"，这就是使徒保罗对爱的诠释。

我也相信，一切自有上帝最美好的安排。

Esmay's birthday 2008

I took Esmay out for dinner last night.

We went to a restaurant called Telawi Street Bistro, in Bangsar, with modern western food. Our dinner tasted great, the service was good. Most importantly, the atmosphere was sophisticated, classy and warm – it was perfect.

Esmay's Pasta. *delicious*

My fettucine~ *yum*

We chatted throughout the dinner and took silly photos. Later we have drinks at Starbucks with some friends. It was such a lovely evening, hanging out with my dear bestie. Happy birthday babe.

Hiking Trip

I love to hike. Whether it's a forest jungle, mountain, even volcano or glacier if I would have chance.

I went to Bukit Melawati on the other day with friends. It was a tremendous hikes with a gang who has some kind of hiking bug. I truly enjoyed the entire trip much!

Although the weather wasn't good, we only saw a blur sunrise.

Still - we had a great time.





I’m keen to try out parts of the Bibbulmun Track one day – apparently one of the world’s great long distance walk trails, stretching nearly 1000kms through the heart of the scenic South West of Western Australia.

I also want to climb Mount Kinabalu and Mount Fuji before I die.

*More photos coming up soon*

Balmy Mornings

Raining season is over. The weather is warming up.

The days are longer. The air is thicker. The heat from the day clings to the trees, the roads, the earth.

We walk through the park each morning, and the morning is rich with new smells.

Warmed eucalyptus trees, flowers bursting with honeyed oils, Indonesian curries, sizzling sausages, chlorine, grass cuttings, bore water sprinklers.

I love this time of year.

漫长的夜晚

今天，我过得即充实又快乐。

很久没用华语写部落格。每当夜幕来临，心情就会跟着低落。。不过倒享受独处的时光。假日的快乐让我整理好照片再和大家分享， 现在。。我想介绍这首歌给大家。

很爱很爱，真的很爱这首歌。元若蓝表达的很好，每一个字，每一个音符都牵动我的心。

元若藍 - 半情歌(偶像劇《命中注定我愛你》插曲)
作詞：陳靜楠
作曲：方文良
編曲：吳俊毅

花 接受凋零 風 接受追尋
心的傷還有一些不要緊
我接受你的決定

你將會被誰抱緊 唱什么歌哄他開心
我想著天空什么時候會放晴
地球不曾為誰停一停

你的明天 有多快樂 不是我的
我們的愛是唱一半的歌
時間把習慣換了 傷口愈合
也撤銷我再想你的資格

你的祝福 一半甜的 一半苦的
像我手中冷掉的可可
最最教人殘念的總是未完成的
我只能唱著 一半的歌

你將會被誰抱緊 唱什么歌哄他開心
我想著天空什么時候會放晴
地球不曾為誰停一停

你的明天 有多快樂 不是我的
我們的愛是唱一半的歌
時間把習慣換了 傷口愈合
也撤銷我再想你的資格

你的祝福 一半甜的 一半苦的
像我手中冷掉的可可
最最教人殘念的總是未完成的
我只能唱著 一半的歌

我的明天 快不快樂 都是我的
我們的愛是唱一半的歌
時間把習慣換了 傷口愈合
也撤銷我再想你的資格

你的祝福 一半甜的 一半苦的
像我手中冷掉的可可
最最教人殘念的 總是未完成的
另一半的歌

如果你有看这部剧，那感受可能更深刻。

夜，已很深了。。
今晚的夜特别漫长。。

Life is Irrepressible

It’s been raining. And we have stuff growing on our door mat.

Daffodil

“The daffodil was chosen as the symbol of hope for all touched by cancer because of its reputation as a hardy annual flower, pushing its way through the frozen earth after a long winter to herald the return of Spring, new life, vitality and growth.” (Daffodilday.com.au)

Usually, I’m not one who gets overly weepy by symbols and metaphors. (Ok, maybe they tug at my heart a little). But daffodils do particularly have a special place in my heart, just because my grandpa and uncle died of cancer, and many of them out there survive cancer.

I think daffodils are absolutely beautiful. And that money for cancer research and support is a worthy cause.

In fact, flowering bulbs in general are simply amazing. To think that something so dirty and ugly and looks like a demented onion could possibly erupt into a stunning flower.

And that all the information for bright yellow petals, green stalks and a funny trumpet shape is stored somewhere inside this lump.

I guess in a way, I feel that the bulbs are more beautiful than the flower itself. And possibly a more beautiful symbol of hope.

.......

Eh, did I just get all weepy?

*May God bless my friend, Tong Lai's dad who is suffering from Lymphomatic Carcinoma (cancer of the lymph node) in his final stage. All we can do is pray hard and live in hope..

In the Class

My preschooler said to me, “HEY TEACHER! What’s a ghost?”

“It’s a… well. Um… lets see.”

I was trying to create a question for them in their workbook while considering whether it was a good idea to tell the children about spirits, death, heaven, the afterlife, and lost souls haunting the earth. I mean, if this isn’t the height of progressive teaching for kids, then I don’t know what is. However, he interrupted my deep contemplation.

“Are they just funny little monsters with blankets over their heads?”

“Yeap. That’s exactly what they are, mate.”

My little Blue Eyes of Scotland

Introduce my little blue eyes --- CAN CAN.

*The eyes doesn't seems very blue here, because of my lousy camera.

Beautiful Sunday

Yesterday I was invited to a dog show and competition at Bandar 1U park. It's the first time I've been to a dog event, so was Bean Bean.

We reached the park around 12pm after church, caught the dog competition, which was funny in certain parts but mostly left us awe seeing how the dogs responded to their owners. Brilliant stuff.

I really enjoyed looking at all dogs around the park! Those rare dogs like St. Bernard, huge white chow chow (looks exactly like lion, I was too excited and forgot to photograph again! T.T), pure white Maltese, a numbers of elegant Husky and beautiful Golden.. and some breeds that I can't even name them.

Bean enjoyed very much too as she's received lots of warm welcome from others. Everybody was pretty amazed about her curly hair, I always make fun of her by telling them her nick name is "lun mo" (curly hair) and she's actually from India! *giggles*






*Cute Schnauzer!*

Huge St. Bernard! I love to call them Beethoven because of the movie. *smile*

"Ah..I'm tired and it's hot!" while on the way home.

Then we had lunch at Old Town White Coffee.

*my love "Nan Yang coffee*

*Rendang chicken with rice*

*Ipoh Hor Fun*

*half boil eggs*

*Thick Toast with homemade strawberry jam*

Drinks with friends at the evening, dinner with family and movie at night with somebody. It was a great Sunday out!
