Picture Wednesday!

Today went on quite okay. Just been moving around town a lot. It is not what i would say busy but i still managed to snap a few pictures. Ya, i am not that good looking but i pamper myself with my pictures. Enjoy. Put comments if you like them.


Yes i know my lips look dry.


Picture number 2


I just noticed that i look d**n tired.


Uprooted tree. Result of last night's storm.

Hope last night doesn't reoccur. I hate it when there is no electricity. And the worst thing is, i just washed my car.

Busy and stormy May

It has been 2 weeks since i last updated. Been so busy with work and all but what happened last night i guess took every single Mirian by surprise. At first i also thought it was a normal thunder storm.

Then, at 8.13 pm the wind started to get rough and very very strong. Not even 10 minutes into that ordeal, *poof* blackout. I was thinking to myself that the power tripped in my house. To my surprise when i looked around the neighborhood, it was dark everywhere.

I thought to myself, there was nothing i could do in this case. I took a quick shower in the dark, got myself dressed and threw myself onto my sweet bed to get some sweet quality sleep since there was nothing else i could do.

Fell asleep for about 2 hours and woke up around 10 pm. I was then awoken by a bashing sound. Like someone was knocking on a piece of metal or something and the condition of my room was getting hot even though it was raining heavily outside. Tried to put myself back to sleep but no luck.

In the end, i got myself dressed and made my way to one of the entertainment outlets in Miri. On reaching the main road, i saw a lot of cars putting on the emergency double signal. I thought it was just a car accident and people were towing the vehicles involved. To my horror, as i drove down the main road, i saw trees, uprooted and fell to the middle of the road.

Man it was just a freaky Tuesday night for us Mirians. It makes me think that we're no longer safe from cyclones or tornadoes. Scary! I don't want to go into details on what i did in the entertainment outlet as i don't remember much myself. What i know i got back at 2am and i still see firefighters on the road cutting down the fallen trees.

**See la.. Miri council want plant trees... what resort city.. in the end it endangered people's lives.. there shouldn't be any trees so near to the road la.

Friend or Foe?

This is the worst day i have been through yet. After going through a whole day of hectic schedule i reached home and had to endure the traditional "lecture" from *you know who* (those living with parents would know how this feeling is)

Its not like getting lectured is something wrong. But no one i mean no one could keep everything, every feeling holed up inside themselves. Everyone has that friend who you could always turn to when they have any troubles or anything that they want to share. But tonight i am not going to go into that part. As i have given up on that part quite a long time ago. It hurts when you trust someone with your all and they backstab you.

A few days ago, i did something that i really shouldn't have but i never thought that tonight... tonight i found out.. no matter how many chances you give to a single person or someone that you call a "friend" they are bound to waste that chance. Like i said in my previous post, deception, anger and sadness. These 3 elements are interwined with each other.

I feel sad but at the same time very angry. How can i be so stupid to trust someone that has backstabbed me once. WHY AM I SO STUPID? Even though you have good intentions.. i do not understand why, why people tend to be like this..... i feel like breaking down and crying... but i know its useless.

But now i know.. be it someone i know for tens of years, be it someone whom i love or my life partner, I WILL NEVER TRUST ANY SINGLE PERSON ANYMORE. I hate being treated like a servant or dog. Whenever they need you, they come looking for you, begging you. When they don't no matter how hard you try, you're just a pile of rubbish beside their doorstep. Now i really understand when people say you won't be happy just by treating others good or being concerned about them. TO HELL WITH ALL YOU FUCKING PEOPLE!!!!!!!! I DON'T FUCKING CARE ANYMORE. WANT TO PIA LAI LA. MCB.

My Eyes Don't Lie by Janice

I came across this song again while listening my huge list of mp3's. I don't know who sent me this song (thank you very much whoever you are, i am glad you sent me this song) but somehow, this song suited my mood at the time i was listening. I am a bit lazy to find the song and upload it here so i put in the lyrics instead. Enjoy.


My Eyes Don't Lie - Janice Wei Lan

If rose is green and grass is red,
Will you remember what i said,
Baby don't forget, before you regret,
Stuck in my mind,
A needle through my head,
The light you shine into the night,
You take away my fright,
And for every time i see you i try,

What i try to say is stay with me tonight,
For what i really feel inside,
My eyes won't let me hide,
Every time i see you they start to cry,
Cause this time, my love, it could mean goodbye,
Don't say goodnight...



The Start of Something New

I woke up today d**n early today. I don't know why but i was surprised myself. Maybe its something good cause if i can get this post as Marketing Executive i will need to get to work by 8.30 every morning. (Except Sundays of course -.-)

Did the daily routine that i do before i go out, take bath, brush teeth bla bla bla... but not breakfast -.- you may wonder why but somehow breakfast has never been in my daily routine. After all that, i was getting ready to go out. Put on my shoes etc.... opened the front door... and ..... clicked on the switch to open the gate.................. but nothing happened..... s**t!! The gate won't open -.-" and the weather was already getting so hot and humid !! I was like "OMG, NOT AGAIN!!"

So i had to open the gate manually... after done doing all those finally i am on my way. After driving halfway down the main road i reached Pujut 4 roundabout... then i thought to myself, where was i going again? It's not the first time this happened. I was practically clueless on where i was going to go so early in the morning.

Eventually, i ended up in Yakin Food Center eating dim sum and sushi. Nothing special about the dim sum, priced at RM 2 each what can you expect? Sushi is at RM 2.50 per roll if i am not mistaken. I don't really keep track on where i spend my money so yeah that's just an estimated guess.

Don't have pictures for breakfast but it was a light one as i only spent RM 6 on my breakfast. 1 fishball dim sum, 1 roll of sushi and 1 bottle of mineral water. Done having breakfast, i got on my car and started the engine... after a few seconds, i ask myself the same question again. Where am i going now? (LOL you must think i am such a dork) 1 minute into thinking on where i should be going, my handphone rang. It was my friend calling me reminding me to send in my cover letter and resume for the Marketing Executive post. (OMG i am not even halfway through those stuff)

Rushed back home switched on my pc and started grinding on the letter and resume. Approximately around noon, i finished typing and printed everything out. Next i went to Boulevard shopping complex to get a picture of myself taken as i need to put one passport size photo in my resume. That took like... 20 minutes... took my pictures went to my car, started the engine and turned on the air-conditioning. I took out my pictures and looked at them... OMG i look like a dork ! =.=" No choice now.. that's the price i have to pay for doing everything last minute.

Attached the picture to the resume and made my way to Parkson where i called my friend and handed him the envelope containing the application letters etc etc... By now, it was like 2 in the afternoon.. i just realized that i have not eaten anything since my light breakfast this morning. I didn't know what to eat so i drove myself to Sabrina Corner in Saberkas. Ordered a nasi lemak and a blueberry sparkling juice. Total = RM 8 (RM 3 for the nasi lemak and RM 5 for the sparkling juice)

Here are the remains of my feast :)

Anger, Deception, and Sadness...

The 3 main elements that always be in connection with each other. No matter where and how you put it, as long as there is deception, anger and sadness will follow suit. Where ever there is deception.... there will always be anger and sadness... and sometimes even death and fatalities.

So what is anger? Deception? Sadness? Why do people need to deceive each other and make either one angry or sad? I always ask myself this question... but i never seem to be able to answer the question myself.

Every single day on this earth goes by and almost every single minute a person is deceiving another or maybe lots more. Is wealth so important until all these people keep thinking of ways to deceive the innocent out of their hard earned money?

Well I know I am only 21 (coming to 22 this year) and most people would say i still don't know enough a.k.a. not enough experience gained in the society but what good is gaining more experience in a society full of deception and lies? What happened to all those hard work earnings?

I feel angry and sad when i see these things happening. Why can't we live in a peaceful and harmony? For example, politics in Malaysia now... opposition versus BN government... which side is telling the truth? How do we know who's lying? If the opposition claims are true, is our own government deceiving us?

It is true that you can not live in this world without money. But you do not have to go deceiving another just to earn that living... there are a lot of ways to earn a decent living. As long as you are wiling to and hardworking enough, I am sure that you can earn a decent living. I pray for those who rely on deception to earn a living.... because i believe that there will be judged when the time comes. Be it by the law or by God. Amen.
