Diva in Sabah!

Day dreaming for all the good things to happen, dreaming of a summer vacation with myself. Dream of pampering myself. Dream of sipping smoothies with night view. Dream having sun tans.Dream of going on a jet plane alone. Dream sitting and do nothing at the beach. Dream looking at the wave all noon.


Finally I'm back on earth, its been a good 6 days well recharge during these days. I'm bless that my DREAM came true, this is my very first time traveling all by myself and pay for own trip and accommodation. I've did it at the age of 22, and yes it might be an ordinary dream for you but not me. I'm glad thing sail on smoothly and I have no regret on making this decision-traveling alone. I will definitely do it again, perhaps somewhere further then this? I was told not to travel alone, but I know the giant in me is bigger then anything in this world cause He is the best creator!

This time traveling I bump into many strangers no matter where I'm. First in the flight, then the beach, then the immigration line-ups following in the city.Ooh and not forgetting they come in all kinds of age. They are all nice people and I'm lovin' these feeling! During my time alone, I'm on my pod.I almost tear because I'm playing a song that is sang by Sammi Cheng- God has prepared for me. Yes and I believe everything was planned from the beginning. He knows each an every step I'm taking. I'm bless and Jesus you make things possible!!
My likes : Books and Music
Okay when I landed on Sabah in the evening I was kinda tire together excited to explore this land. Ivy catch me in the terminal then we went for dinner my first meal was Sang Yok Min(生肉面) then headed home for a quick shower, then headed out for supper
+ famous bubble tea (aka YOYO)- FYI I gain weight during this holiday.Bad.

The next day ( 9-Jul) I headed to Manukan Island, nice place for relaxation and snorkeling, I went for a short snorkeling and spend most of my time sunbathing and picture taking. The sand was fine, the corals were nice not forgetting the colorful fishes under the deep blue sea. Sadly the weather wasn't that pleasant, it pour right after I finish exploring around still bless :) The journey back to the jetty was awful because of the blurry view, and the current we have to go against the wave it was rough enough that the boat almost went upside down, but thank God we are safe.
on our way to island
Dinner time I struggled to have BKT because I have it back in my hometown, but Ivy insisted to go and have a try. Okay being adventurous enough I tried, all I could say is that it was a whole new taste stronger taste of herbs. I like it! Moving on,we headed to the tallest building in KK, known as the Revolving @mosphere Restaurant for a drink it was bit pricey tho but what more for a good night view?
the platform revolves and it shows 360 degree view just by sitting at your place.
Check out my tan and this is what I call satisfaction!
Day 3, I was tempted to try the 牛扎面 (ngau chap min) I'm not sure is the spelling correct, to be clear it is known as the beef noodles my favorite of the day! It was hot boiling with all my fav ingredients and the soup except the intestines---mouth watering!
I was carving for beach, sun and sea, Ivy did not fail me everyday I get the chance to experience the sea breeze. Went to Sutera Harbor a well known site to get one step closer to the sea creatures!
you get what I meant?

After my seaside viewing, Ivy got to get back to her church for practice and I told her I prefer to stay at home rest do some reading all noon. Then night I headed to the famous and largest mall in KK- 1 Borneo it wasn't what I expected. Ivy and cell group have a treasure hunt in the mall I did not join for I'm on a holiday! I pampered myself in New York New York for goods (I know you might be thinking why am I eating something that exist in KL) well I have no choice, but I've chosen there because it has the best setting for reading and foodie time. I had my whole long Saturday with myself apparently I enjoy being alone.
Sunday morning is the day I'm counting down, my morning was greeted with a friendly friend of Ivy namely Alvin he was command to bring me to the Kaya Street for Ivy won't be able at that time cause she serving in the P&W team. Kaya St. is a street that is well known to have local delicacies and souvenir , I only bought some local snacks for my family it was an eye opening market. Time was bit tight, me and Alvin did a quick walk and shopping then headed to church-- Glory Christian Church. As usual my Sunday is for Jesus :) Stepped out from church headed for fooood! Peppermint was the restaurant they serve Vietnamese Food, I definitely adore the food there especially their spicy chicken rice and Vietnam spring roll!

Tummy was fill, head of to Karai Bunai an hour drive there, out of the city to sea side it was nice and relaxing moving on to Rasa Ria, another nice beach and resorts. Many sun many sea many laughter and MANY pictures!Alvin, Sab, Ivy, and Eric

chill coconut pudding
All good moments pass by quickly dawn came, what more I've miss out here is SEAFOOD time! Finally all the good news I have heard in KL about the big, fresh and CHEAP seafood! I'm not a seafood person, but I do eat from time to time.

We had dinner what 大家来restaurant if not mistaken the name, the food was good but the locals claim that there are much better food. Oh did I just miss out Alvin was with us all day long! I forgot to officially speak of Ivy's boyfriend Eric, he was our driver of the day throughout this journey.For he has came back from OZ not long ago, his friend from OZ came too, after seafood we meet up with Andy, Steph, and Lisy 3 of them were from OZ pure Chinese but brought up in OZ. With the typical slag of MATE! :D They are a bunch of fun people. Night ended.

My days of saying bye bye to the land is nearer, beforehand, my long awaited trip to Kundasang (神山) the mount. KK. We headed out early morning 8.30am with Alvin, and Jacquelin (Alvin's gf) we went for Tolup noodle (if not mistaken the name for it). First toilet stop there is a long house (Rumah Panjang) where they sell local goods, T-shirt and all kinds of varieties. We got some and headed to Hot Spring. After plan was to see the mount. but the weather fail me mist covered the mountain. Rain pour again, we headed back.

This is what I meant by seeing the lil peak of Kundasang

My last night dinner was in conjunction with Alvin's farewell he is heading to OZ to further his studies. Went to Uperstar (their daily meet-up place) for dinner and we had loads of fun! Went home early to do my packing and last catch up with Ivy. Our night ended at 2am with all the pillow talk.Happily packing with my last bubble tea!

The day I say bye bye. First meal was flat noodles. Then went to my final sea shore walk at Tanjung Aru this time around I can only sit and see the beach , listen to the wave singing and overview of the beach I went on the first day. We spend our last 3 hours together silently and lil' chat.
I almost pour when I look at the supernatural that God has created that immediate heal my sorrows and problems I left behind in KL. I know it's time to move on, get back to my life and be the salt and light of God everywhere I go. Jesus is the only purpose I'm living for.

Blessed me, Prime Minister was in KK too they are ushers with local costume.
SAB love Sabah!

Flown back to KL with a thankful heart, Ivy gave me the biggest hug and I saw tear rings in her eye I felt same too. But days was well spend and I really appreciate all the time I have with them and Ivy.

Hola Borneo!

Landed on the other side of Malaysia safely on 8th July 2010, first journey to Sabah and first time travelling alone what more to say my DREAM came true and I'm lovin' it! I just cant resist the paradise in this place. Gonna touch and go in this post it's my 3rd day here, and I'm still half way discovering this beautiful land! Despite thinking the weather is still the same in KL, I still enjoy like a tourist here. I was amaze by the early dawn and sunrise moment, it practically gets dark about 6.30pm, and sunrise early morning at 5.30am. I couldn't get good sleep for the first day, it seems like a jet lag. Hence, I manage to pull off to the other day with full of Joy, been looking forward till Friday (9th July) comes! BEACH first stop Manukan Beach. I shall let the picture do the talking and you will know what I meant by paradise.

Partner in crime in Manukan Island- Ivy!

Holly-Molly-woolly!

Yeehaa! Howdy peepoos! I still remember the promise I've made in my previous post, a testimony that I owe! Keep your eye on this, it won't take you long. As I mentioned, at Bukit Jalil our long awaited Christian Conference (a.k.a Awakening For Jesus). It's an outdoor event, hence knowing the unpredictable weather we pray real hard for that during the 4 day it won't be a rainy night, but a good and windy night. Therefore, we are a bunch of people who are looking forward for a good night too! Unfortunately,during the third night it drizzle before the conference starts the A4J campers gathered and pray for miracle, not only that Army of God's lay their hands on the ground to pray for revival in Malaysia too! The rain stopped and rainbow came across the blue sky which make me tear a little. I was amaze by God's will and love! And if you know the story of Noah, and you should know that what does it mean, RAINBOW means the promise of God! MIRACLE still happen therefore, there is no such thing that call end of the world! Told'ya my God is big and almighty!! Amazing right? And everyone says Amen!

Coming back to earth, I watched Toy Story 3 my long awaited movie! I wasn't a big fan of Toy Story but a big fan of PIXAR! They are a bunch of creative people, that I have NO comment on that! For the first time in my life, I bought the Toy Story 3 Jumbo Package that includes the adorable mug and popcorn package! Like it! The movie was fantastic,thumbs up for John Lasseter and team!
Gonna spend my last few hours of weekend with JOY! Nice weekday people! Till then readers! x

Tick-tock on the clock!

It's been awhile I last posted something in my blog. I was occupied by work and reading, last weekend headed to the bookshop alone for a quick glace of new books, ohh the fanatic smell of those books makes me miss my unlimited reading time when I was back in college. Well, I always believe everyone have 24hour in equal is the matter of being a good organizer or a bad one, in fact, I have this feeling I'm a good one I spare enough time with myself, family, bf, friends,work and reading thumbs up for that!

Working routine has been the same which freak my head off by dealing with people who really give "matters" to me! I get freak-out and also yada-yada bout it when it comes to me, but I know God has His will on me to be a patient and a caring person there is always a reason behind and I took the challenge up! Last week history was build in Malaysia, okay okay not Sejarah I meant real cool stuff like rocking down the street with awesome Praise and Worship songs and awesome-possume powerful word from Heaven! It all happened in Bukit Jalil itself, I know some people might think what's the big deal of having a church activity in Bukit Jalil! HELLO! wake up knock on your head first question have you ever-ever seen ANY Christian public activities? In this islamic country we are not allowed to do so, but we pray and miracle starts from 2008 God has put His will in each an everyone's heart. There and there, we have made it and it was a successful one prayer is bigger then all above all, it's not the matter of praying for something we can't see or touch but to believe in faith and do it with faith! Words from others are always, ey you believe air? Common fellows if you don't even believe things that can be seen and touch what more with unseen? So called FAITH! which I'm unable to explain all in a word. Flip the Bible and you will know.I've manage to attend both nights in BJ.Glory to God!The clock is ticking pray for revival in Malaysia! Testimonial of the awesome night will be shared in the next post. So stay tune :)

Below is a post from my colleague Karen...I have not ask her permission by posting this in my blog I know COPYRIGHT! But to lessen my explanation I still took it.




青色头发的就是我。
黑色头发,灰色衣服的是Sabrina。我的新同事。人很开朗,活泼,观察能力很强,非常留意身旁的一切。做人很有原则。
蓝色头发的是Jesslyn,我们的intern.人很可爱,很乐意帮人。
蓝色头发(男的)是Zeck.为人很客气,可是我仍然感觉不到他的真诚,从不谈太多。
黑色(长头发的)是Stephanie。工作上我很容易和她发生摩擦,经常为小事争吵。放工过后,很好谈(不是公事就好),可以笑到流眼泪。他的声音超好听的。

till then fellows!

I don't want anything but.....

a good Day! I'm doing well in life in case that is your question to me. Weekdays is just another day where I need to suck up all my happy go lucky attitude, and give out my best. In the other hand during weekend is to exhale all the excess stuff that I take in during the weekday and be ready for the weekday to come. In my office everywhere you go, there are motivation signs which reminds me many things mind you it's also in the WC! Everyday my schedule is packed with all kinds of new things which keeps me moving well too, meaning I'm growing an growing in a good phase!

After working, I appreciate much time with my parents regardless of those here and there nags. I come home get myself wash up and ask for a tea with them all the time. Besides, I only see L during the weekends. Saturday is half parents and half bf day, I simply enjoy life like that! Last Saturday was a relax one indeed much to update with love. Life is moving well and I'm one bless person! Ready for all circumstances, cause I give thanks in all circumstances!

New York Deli Rox!Thank you for being such a goodie!
Praise the Lord for His grace to keep me going!

Toodles!

Be the salt, and the light!

Fourth week is coming to an ending, I've give up counting how many days have I been in Roots. I'm still happily working, and enjoying each and every moment I had. Despite those unhappy, and nonnegotiable moments which makes me feel like I'm going to burst anytime. I still don't understand the method of looking mature and BEING mature, this two thing doesn't merge well. I came across people who have big brains, small thoughts! Their dreams, thinking and idea are just too ridiculous that makes me want to laugh right into their face. There are many times we are having random talk, through their conversation I think they need more input of knowledge, especially the whole living with your B/G makes marriage not so special anymore. There are many tonnes more things that I've heard, I really need to clean my ear and thoughts every time I'm done with work. The input I'm taking is not so encouraging and positive. It's naive to me, but seems cool to them. Hmpphh *thinking hard* why? why? oh why......

Anyhoo, back on track I'm still abiding in God's word being special in the work place is my goal to strike the best of the best. I don't care how people say, what people say I just want to do my part get job done and leave work place come home for a good sleep being at my own territory is just simply awesome. Don't get me wrong I'm not a loner! I just need time to take all those unbearable moments and burden away being recharge and prepare for the next day! I love weekends, and I don't have Monday blues! This show how much I'm enjoying life!

This is what I'm working on June, this would be another project for us. Together with some sub projects.

client's gift
Half of my desk( the one that is more neat* hints: left) , the ribbons is what we need to tie on the giftta-da 699 of them long process
I feel awful when I see this thing, so oily + sticky, rice and fruit doesn't goes well for me. Well then again, my colleague say is a must try!Took a few bite, and find it so-so too sweet.
So that's about my little update. I hope there are more time to do so. Till then readers! x
