first entry from mr MACkie

trying out my MACkie for the first time.
am a noob with mac, took me quite a whole to figure out how to even navigate the mouse. yeah wtf right? but anyway.. there is something which i'm really in love with...

the PHOTO BOOOTH!


had fun clicking away and even dragged mum and dad in to try it out with me. HAHAHA


am still trying to discover the awesomeNESS of this baby..
am not really a fan of MAC because i had been using windows my whole life and hopefully i will turn to one soon. :D

"because they don't see the twisted limbs; they look past his physical shape into a deeper being that comes from holding and touching and feeding him, of 'being' with him - the connection of flesh and souls that one-to-one caring brings." - A mother like Alex

Home is...

a place where i know i'm always safe.



united as one,
for this is where i know it's home.

it's a nice and heartwarming remake of Home.
thumbs up for the effort made in reproducing this song and gathering all the artists.

10 years and counting

they are people that i know for years.
going through thick and thin together,
laughing together at our silly antics,
always thinking of ways to scare the shit out of one another,
sharing lots of darkest and 'dirties' secrets,
sleeping together,
and the list can go on and on....

somehow i always ended up doing lots of silly stunts and behave like a kid when i'm out with them because i know they will never judge me. (:

thank you for everything that you had done for me,
bringing endless joy and laughter into my life.
listening to me when i need to talk to someone,
showing concern for me when you sense that i'm not being my usual self.

and i really enjoy every moment with all of you.

you girls are indeed the best friends/ gifts one can ever have. (:

thank you for all the kind words and your blessing.
it means a lot to me(:

summary of CNY for 2011

GONG XI GONG XI
let it be a smooth sailing year in love, work, life, everything for me and you.

Day 1

and that's my lovely family

as usual CNY day 1 was spent at uncle's house (no longer call it grandma's house :( ) it's the first year without grandma. lesser pple were there too... anyhow my usual click was there.. spending every CNY with them without fail and i hope it will continue...

day 2 was spent at Jean's house..

she invited us over for a meal of home cooked food and DIY pizza.
had a good time catching up, sitting around, gambling and just enjoying each other company.

Day 3

invited my residents over to my house for a mini reunion.
you should see all their happy faces (:

and after they left i head over to esther's house to gather with the volunteers (:

last day was spent at temple, slacking at lee uncle's house, reunion dinner. no photos.

quite a tiring CNY, was out everyday and not forgetting 3 nights of overnight MJ and ban luck.... but anyhow i had a great time catching up with everyone of them.. (:

and yup it was indeed a great CNY with all the activities, gathering going on.

adorable faces everywhere

year end trip was spent at Seik Phu Taung Youth Development Centre again. as usual it was AWESOME! met a lot of kids there and had a great time hanging out with them, just chit chatting, enjoying each other company and playing together. it was so good that i teared when it's time to leave. it's hard to say goodbye especially to them.

and i'm happy and surprise that some of the kids remember me even though the last time we met was 1 year ago.

that one week with them was one of the happiest time of my life. they are little angels in my heart, always taking care and looking out for me when i tell them not to. after all im there to serve and not to be served.

i'm so used to have them hanging around me, sticking to me that it feels weird when im back. no one to pull me everywhere they go, no one to entertain me, no one to sing with me, no one to fight for me! hahaha.

was more prepared for this trip after my virgin experience last year. went there with a few cheers, songs, craft work, etc to teach them. and they enjoyed it totally! it warms my heart to see all their eager faces to learn.

i just came out with any random cheers/ songs and they will start singing happily to it. sweet (:

one of my favourite boy and he super love to act shuai! (:and their super adorable BOBO. was still a baby when i met him last year. he grown so much.

i want to spend time with them everyday, to give them love and show them concern that they yearn for, to teach them, etc. there is so much that i wanna do for them but i have my limitations too. i miss them so much that i cant stop thinking about them when i'm back. they are such adorable kids why will their parents abandon them?

can i kidnap the kids back with me?

spending time with them again let me realise the importance of FAMILY. people that we often take them for granted... for one of the kids i chatted with, we happened to talk about his family. and i can see him trying hard to control his tears when sharing. although he told me that he is happy staying here but deep down inside i know he is upset because he is away from his family, his loves one.. yeah, he is a strong boy indeed. something which we should learn, to stay strong, happy, positive no matter how bad the situation is.

i will learn to appreciate my family more and to be thankful that i still have them with me. and you must do it too. :)

this is so true. but how many people can actually achieve it? and often we are stuck in the dilemma of passion or money.

was chatting to one friend and he happened to be complaining about his current job which he feels that it's kinda boring... and so i told him "you only live once. (:"

CNY 2011

received my first ang bao from my ex-resident's mum. (: her daughter was discharged and yet she came down to visit us.

All my residents are in a happy mood because it's CNY and most of them are heading home for CNY. you should see the smiles on their faces when they are going home. how i wish CNY doesnt happen once a year so they will always get to go home.

i pray that more of them will be able to go home during cny because it's hard being left behind.
