I am blessed....
so very much...with good health, wealth and everything....
Alhamdulillah..
not to say that I am freaking rich, but wealth to me is when I have enough to make ends meet with some to spare...
Am feeling melancholic today... :)

.........................
work is quite slow at the moment...so should i be happy? content? ntah laa....bored? yes to a certain extent...
i just turned 33 this year....and my goals are getting less and less challenging....is this normal? hmmm...is this how others feel? when you reach a certain age, then your priorities change - for the better or worse? hmmm....
I wish there's a straight forward yes/no answer to my questions above. unfortunately, it is not. That's life...
well, take it one day at a time? until when? only time will tell....
till then....stop asking too many questions and just get on with life.... :)

Shenzhen & HK trip (21-27 Jan 2010) - as a reminder to myself for future travel plan
what a way to start a new year huh? holidaying..hmmm the best I would say..
This time we went to Shenzhen & Hong Kong. I didn't really want to go initially coz i know there'll be a lot of barriers that we'll have to go thru- language, food etc. since the fare was cheap, i relented..
Especially in shenzhen, small number of people speaks very little english..
Arrived at the airport around 9pm. I thought airport ulats only exist in KLIA. not sure whether i was relieved or dissappointed that they were in shenzhen airport as well. relieved that people can't say Malaysia airport is the worst because of them or dissapointed that their presence in SZ airport means that KLIA is no longer special or different than other airports? hahha
the strange thing about the airport is that the domestic terminal is much much bigger than the international area. the taxi stop was located at the domestic terminal. since it was dark we didn't see the taxis in the beginning. then this guy approached us, 100 ready, 100 ready..at least that's how it sounded like.it was unbelievable..we kept asking him, really? so we were thinking..wow this is damn cheap..just imagine 100 rmb for 7 people..then once we got inside the car, he started ...100 usd...bloody hell...then the haggling started..not to our liking..we got off the car luggage and all...bangang kan mamat tu?
i really can't take it when people cheat me!! stoopid.. then we walked to the domestic terminal coz we saw taxis was lining up around there. there was a lady asking - taxi? and she was standing near the taxis..we asked meter? she said yes..meter..then push our trolley to one dark area..called her friend the taxi driver..7 people 2 taxis and i think they took us around...ended up we had to pay 300rmb per taxi...communication was non existence...no english.. i still cursed that f**c**** woman until today!
so, reminder to myself - next time just take the airport taxi. well we wanted to take the bloody taxi but was cheated by the stoopid woman...
arrived in the hotel..so-so lah. it was a warm night..plus sakit hati even warmer.
the next day we walked around the hotel area..stumbled upon a halal restaurant-very near to our hotel. of course communication was limited to pointing at the menu-luckily they have photos of the dishes..hmm..portion was big-can share between 2 people. and the price was cheap. 1 plate of fried rice was 10rmb=RM5.00.
went to windows of the world, entrance fee 120rmb/pax. had a really good exercise walking around..
next day- crossed the border to go to HK.
reminder - to fill up departure card, went thru immigration the whole nine yard...except there's no plane to board. it was a Saturday..very crowded.
bought the octopus card, cross country passes etc. took the train to the hotel.
HK transport system was amazing, however, the fare is not cheap. food wasnt cheap as well. 1 plate of beriani at pakistani restaurant can easily cost HKD55.i stayed at Charterhouse Causeway Bay. there's a masjid right behind the hotel. level 5 of the masjid building is the canteen. food there is slightly cheaper and they serve halal dimsum as well. very convenient. and the hotel room was clean albeit a bit small compared to our 3 star hotel room here.
went to the peak - no q to grt into the tram. some people have to stand. which i find a bit stupid since everyone had to pay the same price. and the locals like to push, getting on the tram they push, getting down they push..bodoh!we took a bus to get down from the peak. much better! HKD9 all the way to HK MTR station.
then to night market-dung tooi or ladies mkt i think. i got some t-shirts. other than that it's just like any pasar mlm in other countries. bags, shoes, clothes, counterfeits everywhere.
HK disneyland - entrance fee hkd350. not so big but still breathless to cover..ahhahhaha. especially since there was no halal restaurant inside. it was a sunday, so big crowd. long q for everything. it was just so-so for me. i guess theme parks are just not for me? :)
citygate outlet - total crap. prices there are more expensive then the normal price here in MY. i spent less than 30 minutes there.
kowloon - starving!! exit tsim tsa tsui. kowloon masjid is right outside the station. plenty of halal restaurant around. mostly pakistanis and arabs. dont be surprise if have to take really old, small elevator to get to the restaurant. the guy told us that the rent for ground floor is very expensive. that's why their restaurant is on higher floors. i was quite scared when they took us to the lift etc. but after i saw the restaurant and food, i was more concerned about filling my tummy. hahhaha.
symphony of lights - walked quite a distance to get there from the restaurant. not worth it if u ask me. ntah apa2 ntah..
temple street - even crappier than ladies mkt.not worth going at all.
stanley mkt - konon2 the high end mkt la.sells the same thing only at higher prices. i guess coz the patrons are mostly mat salehs. x pergi pon x per. not worth it.
i ended up getting my birthday present at the time square..hahahha....it was my mission going to HK. and i can say mission accomplished!
all in all, HK was not cheap but i like the weather - it was cold when we were there. :)
reminder-return the octopus card before u leave for the border again coz there is no counter to do that after lo wu station which is quite stupid i would say. they have the counter on the way from SZ to HK, but not from HK to SZ. susah betul.
now planning another trip in April..yuhu..i am more looking forward to this one!!

what the f*&%!!
I have always believed and trust this person completely..but to know that she betrayed that trust is sooo unbelievable...
If u dont like me just tell me to my face, bitch! dont be all sweet and laughs & smiles and pretend to understand when i opened up to you!
Is there any good people left in this world? no wonder we need more and more shrinks now...coz we cant open up to the person closest to us...the one person that we completely trust!
I thought she would treat me the way i treat her...with confidence etc. how gullible was I?
no wonder they say learn from others' mistakes coz you wont live long enough to make all of them.....hahaahhaha..now that saying does make sense.....blasted woman!! i curse u till the day u die!!
just drop dead!!

be careful what u wish for..
it may come true..hmm..i have to chant this mantra over and over in my head..
BE CAREFUL WHAT U WISH FOR..IT MAY COME TRUE ...AND YOU MAY NOT LIKE IT!
picture this - you'll be wishing for something good of course, unless u are a twisted human being to wish for something bad for yourself! you get what you want, but remember, every actions result in reactions, so you may not get the reactions that you wanted because for a simple reason that it is beyond your control!
so, assuming you get what i'm trying to say here, should we be wishing for anything, or shouldn't we? considering the unpredictable outcome? hmmm...how much should you wish for then - to minimise the risk of getting the reactions that is unfavourable to you?
when they came out with this saying why didn't they say how much care should you exercise when making a wish?
hmmm..complicated huh?
don't worry about all this - just some crap brain exercise i'm doing here...

the one thing i'm not good at
WAITING!
That's it..i hate to be kept waiting..good news bad news just let me have it..it's better than no news at all..agreed?
since it's not up to me then wait i shall...bencinye!
