Valentine's Day - the movie

I love this movie. Why? Its straight forward. About people denying love, looking for love, tired love, new love, can't find love, cheating love and forever in love and Its full of very well known actors and actresses.

I don’t really remember how many story lines are there in the movie but there’s no boring moment. The movie moved fast. I like Julia Roberts with her motherly love story and Ashton Kutcher/Jenifer Garner relationship story.

i LOVE doing household chores... NOT!

Its been two days of doing the house chores… and finally I’m done. Yahooo. From cleaning and scrubbing bathroom tiles, toilet and sink, vacuuming and mopping the floor , doing the dishes, laundry and folding laundry, changing bed sheet, cleaning up the window and lastly the grocery shopping. Adoi penatnya. I have one day left… Then its Monday. Ohhh. I have not iron my shirt yet.

I actually spent more than 4 hours at sunway today… so tak boleh lah nak merungut lebih lebih :D

Give Up

I hate this word – give up. It’s like I’m a looser.

But then, wait

Me- contemplating the word give up again.

It can be deeper than that.

It means letting go. Surrender to the unknown. Being powerless.

So, if I give up everything I have now, would I be happy?

I don’t know.

But the smell of giving up is too close.

If I give up, am I a looser or am I open up to the possibilities?

The attachment makes it harder to let it go and it’s eating me up every single day.

I need a REASON. The one REASON to give up and the one REASON to start over again.

Or am I finding excuses to justify?

Time is running.

End.

excerpt from ‘the curious case of benjamin button’:

“I hope you live a life you’re proud of. If you find that you’re not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again. “

Should i? before its too late

I'm in Hanoi, Honk your Horn!

There’s one unique thing about Hanoi.

Motorbikes, bicycles and cars – they communicate in one international language called horn honking. Drivers constantly honking their horn, (I guess every 8 seconds) to fight for road space. They move like ants in all directions, communicating with each other through the horn.

Honking the horn doesn't mean a driver is angry (I think) otherwise this city is full of angry people :), it's a polite courtesy to let everyone know they're coming through and to get out of the way in order to avoid an accident. After awhile somehow I get used to it.

Trying to cross the road is an experience. There are no gaps. The only way to is to walk slowly (don’t run), relax and hope for the best. Somehow the traffic will go around you.
Being so called adventurous, I’ve prepared myself with map courtesy of Google. Surprisingly, walking around Hanoi is quite easy. The old Quarter has everything- silk, shoes, shirts and all sort of souvenir. Shopping around are satisfying. I can ask price without any obligation to purchase. They communicate pleasantly. They accept both currency – Dong and USD.

Journey to Halong Bay was very tiring. Six hours journey was like forever. Should extend my stay and stay one night on the boat :) But it’s worth it. Wish I have extra canggih camera to take the photos :)



Food - not a problem. Found halal restaurant own by malaysian. This -photo below are their own version of mamak stall.
