Limitations......

I always believe that in every one of us there should be a personal boundaries in which no one should crose either physically unless its invited..... Being to be respected is important ! Just to know the limitations on what u really want in your life . Being self respect is always important ! I can't expect others to respect me unless I respect myself . Once the imaginary lines are drawn , it will be alot easier for me to stay stronger and be more assertive .
After all.... lets try to see life not as the enemy but as a friendly sparring partner. We just dun need to improve or change to strive for perfection, but just accept yourself as who you are . Its becos we can't expect others to understand us, unless we understand ourself more. Always leave a little space for ourself each day to reflect , to understand and to respect . Keep our life just simple , bare and pure.

The Magic Bowl

Here's the magic bowl of my house ..... finally a decent fish tank ..... all the thanks to Yeu! He is the one who helped me everything in that tank......providing me with his own breed of fishes...... proper use of filter , just everything ! thank you so much ... why do i call it the magic bowl...... its becos whoever happens to sit beside the tank just can't help to take a closer look at it ! by just seeing how the fishes swim it is very therapeutic. My magic bowl !

Sunshine After Rain !

Being happy doesn't mean everything is perfect. It means you've decided to see beyond the imperfections. That's the only way that helped us to move forward in life....... went to watch Ratatouille yesterday its a great show . So u guys must watch it...... though its a cartoon but sometime we just need to escape from the real world to release stress and to believe in things that are not logic ..... its becos we have decided to be simply happy and to see beyond the imperfections............. there's always sunshine after rain......... if we are willing to step forward we might even see rainbow! Is that true ? welll we have just got to be optimistic ! Becos life just needs to go on , so why not be happy ?

Uplifting Trip

Ohh..... its been a while since i have updated my blog....... nothing much happening that is why nothing much to blog tooo...... Back from my trip and everything just went as it planned...... thanks god for the smooth plan.......Hopefully everything just go as welll for everyone too. Singapore is still such a country which everything is expensive, increament of GST to 7% that's ridiculously expensive for everything there......... maybe its becos as what someone said..... city life aren't suitable for kampong ppl! i will bear this in mind ! hahaa! This trip i get to meet my lovely niece jaime! she is sooo adorable. Talkative as usual but u will def love her when u see her! Her little sister tienni is just as cute tooo !

Two of my lovely layout . There's nothing that makes me look forward for the trip except my scrapbooking class! I enjoyed the class ofcourse. I have always think that both of the pics are lovely , save it up for my classes and thus it will be preserved to be the best layout for the month.

Being Just Simple

Look at the nature of beauty , how beautiful it is when flowers bloom but it will still wilt one day.

Lives aren't perfect but it can be better....... Smile aren't the most charming but it can be heartwarming. Being together we want to fall in love madly with each other, having big chemistry, fireworks and unbelievable feelings but that's too extreme and ofcourse it won't last forever. That's not reality in life. Being happy simplicity maybe worth to aim for contentment because that's what last forever.

Dumpling Festival

Its the month of the dumpling eating again! My mom has started making dumpling, bundles and bundles of them hanging on our patio after its cooked. It just look sooo nice with the feel of the festive season around the corner........dumpling shown on the pic was my breakfast for this morning! It just simply tasted heartwarming becos its specially made for me by my mom!

Scrapbooking Craze

Its been quite a while since i last blog. Life is getting back on track once again for me......... been busy around lately. I have stopped scrapbooking for awhile but i am now back to the craze of it again. Here's my latest masterpiece..... Isn't he gorgeous ? I really like this piece of lo , dunno why, but i just feel that kids have the nature of purity where there's no boundaries to get close to them.

God's Plan

3 phrases that my cousin asked me not to forget whenever we are in our down phase. Part of our life are destinated to god's plan (Depending on your own beliefs ) . I do believe .


If God anwers your prayers, he is testing your faith,

If God delays your prayers, he is testing your patience,

If God does not answer your prayers, he has better plans for you.

What's All About Love ?

L is for Love
And in all kinds of weather,
For family and friends,
It will go on forever.

I found these phrases in one of my niece's story book interesting, which i really wish to blog up to share with everyone, what love is all about ........ is that true love will go on forever ? yeah those who believe and those who are deeply in love will, but what about when a relationship hits their turning point? Well nothing is right or wrong in a relationship, its just the sense of perfection that we all have in our believe.

R is for right,
Which can be a direction,
But it also implies,
A sense of perfection .

Funny pics

One fun thing that we will never miss wherever we travel.......... whenever we have the chance we will look out for the cute sticker photo machine........ ni and i went to the one at world trade center......... ohhh taking such pictures aren't easy...... modelling job isn't an easy job as i realises... nice pictures huh! save up all the money to go studio.

Dinner for our last night in Hk

Tai Wu Rest that serves our all time fav two style fried rice................ and my long missed fried squid tenticles ( reminds me of perth dim sum ) ............ ermmmm satisfying dinner. What time did we had our dinner ? it was 10pm........ which we usually have our supper in brunei or maybe some of us have already went to bed.

HongKong Disneyland

Its the day that we planned to go Disneyland, but heard it through the weather focus in hk that it will rain........ ahh....... yes we thought about the rain and how heavy it will be ..... but remember we have our cheap and durable umbrealla??? haahah we brought it along with us..... so we thought we will be safe....... once we reached at the station of disneyland, rain started pouring heavily ...... adults and children heading to disneyland getting ready to wear raincoats........... and there are stalls selling raincoats that have their disneyland logo on, look at our raincoat, isn't it cute ?....... each of us grab one too just not to be different from everyone in the park ............ its fun, that's the first time for me to wear raincoat becos we dun get a chance to wear it in brunei becos getting anywhere is near here.

Since its raining.......... we get into the emporium for checking out what to get ......... but i found out that i have nothing in mind to buy anything there.......... maybe i am getting old..... change of taste. hahaha! neahhh not just that becos i have to many unnecessary stuff in my drawer in which i bought last trip. So mostly in this trip my main purpose is to be there taking pictures with the characters and to watch all the shows and rides.......... i still failed to get on the dumbo rides which i always wanted to becos of the drizzling rain ........... but we get on the carousels , mad hatters and pooh rides . We missed out the Lion king show and the parades, but we did watch the Golden mickey show and the philar magic show which u guys must watch when u r there!!! those are two terrific shows.

Went on the Piratesland........... ni took pic with her funny pirates, who tries to steals gold and money from ni but after a few mins of nonsense talk........ that pirates asked ni to kill herself instead of him killing ni . hahaha! that's funny. Went on the cruise ride......... that was fun tooo .....

We missed out the Tomorrowland becos we dun have enough time! I will just save it for my next trip! After all the rides and show............ its just the right time for fireworks........ we were lucky that the rain stops and fireworks were able to be proceed. Fireworks is also must seee show .

Well after all the show.......... its time to go home.......... ofcos we were all exhausted . Look at my tired feet ????? We can't really walk anymore, we were just dragging ourselves back ( ni said she left one of her leg in disneyland, hahaha ) and our stomach were grumbling........ thinking hard of what to eat................ sooo we end up having our long missed two style fried rice and fried squid not calamari rings but the tenticles of the squid! Ermmm............ yummy...............

Lastly i have to thanks hsii for the stay and his warm welcome to us . Stayed at hsii place and disturbed him for a week.......... a little prayer for him here, " to let hsii get through his exam smoothly this year ! " SOON AH"

This wraps up my whole trip........ how should i describe my trip ? Ermmm............................ its a warm, happy and lovely trip.

UCC cafe

UCC cafe is a must for mei when she is in hk . Average rating for this cafe as food there is just nice and price is fairly expensive, but nice ambience. Not quite worth it , if you can get better standard of the food and cheaper price in the local " cha chan teng" .

Boston Restaurant

Remember " Lion Rest " in Brunei, where they served sizzling hot plate ? That's what everyone of us been talking about it again and again becos we missed their food so much ....... french toast and so many of the fusion food. Ni heard it from Jin Yong about a rest located at Wan Chai called the Boston rest serves exactly the same food that we have long missed. It may not be tasted the same becos every rest has it own unique standard, but i may say it tasted just as good! Try it if you have the chance....... every taxi driver in hk knows about the place ...................

After the heavy lunch Hsiii brought us to a very antique place for the famous " nai cha" as our teh tarik in brunei. We travelled all the way to "chung wan" for just that cup of tea. But its all worth......... becos it tasted smooth and warm................ and we bought 4 cheap and durable umbrellas there becos of the rain that started to falls.

Trip to Hk 2007

HongKong is really a tremendous place where u can find almost every food that u fancy of . This saying may not apply to everyone but to me YES. They have all sort of varieties of food that i can't get it easily in Brunei. To me Hk is a place where i called it " Food Heaven " Here's the food that we had on our trip...... that's only our breakfast and snacks, there are more coming along the way....... on this post .

Chocs Making

Its my chocs making class........ Its fun! Making chocs aren't easy at all..... tedious and skillful works. Techinques are important. Maintaining the right temperature inorder to make delicious chocos is as important too. Here's all my hard work last night . what's my next lesson ......... cake making ?

Elegant High Tea

Food in my family is just as important ....... whenever there's gathering there's good food served. Self prepared high tea served at home....... isn't it well presented ? Food just tasted as good too. Ermm... yummy...... With such a feast and gather around with people you love where happiness lies.
