random article

Saw this note from facebook,quite interesting =)

感觉说得很有道理，希望每个女生都能幸福的生活着~~


1.要坚信一个真理：这个世界上只有爸妈永远对你好。
你24岁了，你记不记得自己青春反叛的时候怎么气过他们。
你24岁了，父母都快年过半百了，你要对他们好的时间已经不多了。不要等失去的时候才哭着说当时年少不懂事，没有好好孝敬父母。


2.是的，你已经达到法定婚龄了，可是你并不用着急着嫁人。
或许你正在热恋，你们山盟海誓说要一辈子。
可是你才24岁，你不知道一辈子到底有多长。日子是过出来的，不是想出来的。
结婚，不是两个人的事情，是两个家庭的事情。老一辈讲的门当户对，并不是毫无道理的封建思想。
结婚，你应该抱着一辈子只有一次的信念，所以结婚，慢慢来。


3.轰轰烈烈的爱情，留给一字头的年龄。
你24岁了。别再做那些会被别人当做笑话的傻事。
什么夜不归宿，当街吵架，以死相逼，一哭二闹三上吊。
那些疯狂的事情，那些年少轻狂，经历过就够了。
24岁了，学会淡定从容。
女孩子，从来就应该骄傲地活着，而不是卑微地恋爱。


4.不要因为寂寞而恋爱，不要因为跟风而恋爱。
24岁了，学会对自己的人生负责。


5.自己喜欢的东西，不要奢望别人买。
24岁，不管你以前是否玩过暧昧，你已经过了暧昧的年龄。
女人要独立，经济独立是基础。


6.如果一个男人对你说他配不上你，相信他。
一个自己说配不上你的男人，一辈子也不会配得上你！
珍惜与能力无关，与钱无关！


7.明确自己的目标，为此奋斗。
24岁，你要出国？找工作？还是继续学习？
24岁，你离踏入社会已不远，你是否已做好准备？


8.答应自己的事情就要做到，该对自己狠的时候就要狠，切忌优柔寡断、藕断丝连。
对自己心软，成不了大事。
24岁，要学会面对现实，不能再整日沉浸于白日梦中。




9. 女孩子，要学会对自己好一点，别把所有的都投资在所谓的“潜力股”身上。
无论什么时候，看清楚你自己手中留着什么底牌。


10.做人学会圆滑。
24岁，别人不会再把你当小孩子，你的错误已不会再有人包容。
对不喜欢的人和事面带笑容，是我们必须学会的恶心。


11.感谢所有伤害过你的人。
然后在24岁生日的那天，对他们挥挥手，说声，我不再恨你们了。
你长大了，你要正视伤害。


12.别玩什么非主流。你不是90后。
还不如学着化化妆，不是烟熏妆，是大方得体的淡妆。
一个大企业的面试官曾对我说过，一个化淡妆的女生，企业会优先考虑。
为什么？因为你连自己的容貌都不着急，你会着急什么？
世界上没有丑女人，只有懒女人。




13.减肥，说说就好。
到你真的减到跟竹竿似的时候，你会发现低血压低血糖头晕目眩一系列疾病同时伴随你。
说不好还有胃癌。
24岁，你要知道，你以后的路还有很长，健康的身体是你走下去的保证。


14.对挑拨离间的人，不要揭发他。
等他演完一出出好戏，拼命演，拼命圆。
然后告诉他，其实你什么都知道。
接着，笑笑，离开。


15.谁对你好，你就对谁好。
人际交往永远是礼尚往来的、双向法则，没有人有义务对你好。
24岁，擦亮眼睛，谁对你好，记得对他好。




16.转身，要比眼泪快。
这是必须。
24岁了，你必须学会承担难过，你必须知道难过它会过去。
要经常对自己说，我也可以很勇敢。不要，千万不要，轻易在别人面前掉眼泪。
别人看多了你的眼泪，就会觉得你的眼泪如此廉价。




17.你以前或许干过许多荒唐的事。 可是请你不要觉得那有多见不得人。请你不要觉得那是负担。 24岁，这是你生命中一个新的开始。



18.随时给自己准备一个微笑
告诉自己
我可以！

extraordinary camp =)

Just back from a camp,it's about personality of each horoscopes and I'm representing the Taurus.

It was a brand new experience as I get to know how a tv programme is made,how hard the crews have to work,the faces of the actors/actresses behind the screen.To set up the background alone needs coordination of 2 camera men,so that they wont take the scene with their camera inside,there might be 2 or more camera taking the shots considering the views from every angle.Not to forget the mic,which needs a man to hold on to the stick with mic hanging above the scene,to adjust the mic to the spontaneous speakers who want to talk during the show,to make sure speaker's voice is loud enough and make sure the noise surrounding is low enough,to hide the mic when individual interviews are going on.

Brightness is another consideration.There will be more than one lamp is needed,each facing different angle and different brightness so that the actor looks good.Before any shot is taken,they have to adjust the white balance using a white board.

The host,though looks confident,cheerful on the screen,must be able to work under the pressure of director.Usually,there will be countless ''NGs'' before the director nods his head.

Stylists/hair dressers have to be there 2 hours before the show and stay till noon to help us 补妆

We did lots of interviews,mentality tests and some challenges which I will not,definitely try if I were not given this chance.Production crews are cheerful and friendly,though they looked serious for the first few days.And also,new friends with different personalities,different backgrounds,different talents.

There will be another event coming up.Wish me luck! =)

Couldnt see the top of eiffel tower?

Pre-exam syndrome

Craziest ever thing I've done in this month...

From this....

To this...

VERY HOT LARRRR!!!!!

The Surprises

WARNING!!LONG ENTRY!get a coffee or snacks before scrolling down XD

Is birthday the day you are longing for ever since you were a little girl?
I define birthday as the cake-day,just like duan1 wu3 jie2 we eat bak zhang,dong1 zhi4 we eat Tang Yuen,the only thing I'm looking forward is the cake!well,I dont really like those ceremonies where your family/friends have to sing birthday song(multiple languages =.='),lit up the candles(although I do like to blow them),make a wish in front of everyone having them to wait for you.Simply b'cuz I dont know what to do when the song is sung by friends,option 1: clap hands(make the tempo) and sing together with them,Option2:smile and look at them when they are singing,Option 3:look down until the song finished.Either way is making you awkward,dont you think so???

Yeah I know 21st-birthday is something special(b'cuz everyone says so -_-),but I didnt expect much.My family isnt around,they are the one who made my day for the past 20 years.I dont qi1 dai4 much for the presents as I WILL BUY it if I need anything(MJ KNOWS how generous am I when I'm spending my money XD).Out of expectation,I had the most Most MOST memorable 21st-birthday in my life,although I'm far from family,and my dearest/closest ever buddies.

One/two days before JS started to ignore me,he told me he fell sick after the trip to Peak District(which is a HALF-correct-statement),he needed rest,he needed to revise as he used up too much time on sleeping...Blah blah blah,so that I dont msn him wth.
On 23rd night(about 11pm),I couldnt tahan,I was too bored without having anyone to kacau and I wanted to sleep earlier after revising for the whole night,I send him a message on msn.

He did reply,''hey...'' I smelled fish,this was not the usual way he replies my msg.After that I went on bombarding him with lots of msges,no reply after a long wait.FISHY..

I was a bit frustrated waiting for his reply and went back to my bed to continue my revision.-Lonely- that was what I felt at that moment.Then,received Mj's text.
I couldnt describe how warm it was to receive a lovely birthday wish from her,especially at that time.''When is Sam leaving ahh?If not I can go to your place tmr night...'' FISHY FISHY FISHY!

About 10 to 12am,I received a call from JS,asked me look at the window behind me(I'm staying at ground floor).I was shocked,there he was,standing outside holding sth,showing me sth.......and I had my 1st birthday cake..

First surprise..

''Tomorrow is mine'' *grinning*,I didnt ask him much after that..

______________________________________________________________________

Morning,bz with my laptop,he helped me reformat it and I had no idea what's his plan for the day,I was told to get myself ready by 12pm -that's aLL-

This was the place I was ''led blindly'' to. Fine dining..

He made a reservation at 1pm,waitress led us to our seat and passed the menu to us.I looked around,really classy,till I dare not simply move around,afraid that I would do something wrong like drop something on the floor and everyone would stare at you.

The menu..I didnt understand 90% what's on the list.

Ok lar,at last he ordered all.These:

And dessert..

Atmosphere in the restaurant was really good,just that it makes you a bit stiff.Once stepping out of the door,I felt like I can resume my normal volume of my voice.

This was the second surprise.

_____________________________________________________________________

We reached home quite late,about 4pm and he told me we have to go out for dinner at around 6.30pm.Took a bus out and reached Strand at 7.30pm.

Once we get off the bus,we ''crawled' around at super slow speed,looking for the sign board.I tried to make him tell me where's the restaurant but to no avail.LIKE MJ =.=''

THEN,MET MY FRIENDS walking towards us shouting:''THERE!!!(pointing to our left).

SHOCKED

WHY MY FRIENDS WERE THERE and they werent surprised to see me!?

I turned my head to him--*grinning*

There were few more friends waiting inside the restaurant *touched*

Japanese food-buffet.Imagine that,this portion times TWO.
This times TWO.Seriously this is not the way to eat sushi lorr..

Cream and Cookies Cake.

Third surprise...

On the way back,I forced him to say everything out and only knew that,EHEM,MJ THOU,YOU ARE ONE OF THEM who planned this.He bought ticket down to London 2months ago,get the present few months ago,get my other friend involved in the secret dinner after Amsterdam trip..He told me there will be another surprise coming up,and that should be the greatest.I TELL YOU,I was totally drained of energy to think what's next zzz

Went back,online,chatted with MJ to confirm next day's lunch's venue and time. *now I know why MJ persisted to meet up on Sunday instead of Monday..There was indeed,the climax laying under the pages awaiting for the next day to reveil its truth(wth what am I talking about XD)

As usual,met up with MJ and chatted for more than 2hours without realizing it.I was warned not to open the present till I get home.How obedient am I,I used about 1hour to reach home with the tempting present sitting next to me.

Took a bath,then settled everything and sat relaxingly on my bed.

Open the paper bag,took out the orange coloured bag.(I thought it was that kind of hand-made bag MJ get from Honduras,LOL).Ta-daaa,body shop's products,LOVE THEM,seriously.THEN...

Realised that was not the only thing in the bag,an envelope..open...Winnie the Pooh CD...

Jumped off my bed,rushed to the laptop and insert the disc..JS ''seng mok'' enough to get himself busy with his work,leaving me alone indulging the content of the CD.

After watching the photos part(introduction)..my face was already soaked with my tears..Really miss the time in secondary school..ANd I didnt expect there would be videos following up,I thought the whole video was just like photo album.

Yuen Ling,Wu Jia,Sin Huei,Desmond's video...Wanted to give HUGS of appreciation immediately to all of you..THEN,the most shocking part..my family was inside too..I didnt know HOW BOTH OF YOU,MJ AND SIN HUEI get my family on video,shocking shocking SHOCKING,they are camera shy all this while even to take a family photo..

By the time finish watching the video,my room was banjir ==''

At first was this

Then...

cried hysterically..no kidding..i have saksi -_-

for more than 10minutes if not more.Then I only told by JS,what's going on and what was your planning.

Girls..ops..ah mahs...you'd touched the bottom-est,innest part of my heart and this will be the best-ever-present I ever received.When I looked back what were going on for the whole one-day-before,on the day and one-day-after 24th,it was like a sweetest dream,that makes me bu she de to wake up.The time you spent in,the obstacles you'd faced while making that video,I appreciate it.After the long,eventful day,I thought: what have I done to deserve you girls in my life?

*wink* A BIG Thank you again!To all of you.

Amsterdam!!!

My friends and I went to amsterdam,Netherland for 4 days.Amsterdam is quite a small city,from one end of the city walk to the other end of the city takes less than 1hour.The main public transports in Amsterdam are bicycles,tram,boat and car(less),and the traffic system is totally a mess.The road is shared by bicycles,trams,cars and pedestrian.Sometimes we didnt know we were walking on the road of cars/bicycles until we were being hon-ed.There are alot of canals in the city,like one every 2/3 streets.Amsterdamm is famous for its cheese,wooden shoes,prostitution(legal),drugs(legal,sold in ''coffeeshops''),waffles,pancakes and bir.People in this country are quite friendly,their first language is not english,but most of them do understand and speak simple english,so its not difficult to backpack in Amsterdam.

We took plane to Netherland,guess what,I forgotten that I was going to the other country and containers more than 100mL are not allowed,i threw ALL my SHAMpoo,Body shampoo,lotion at the airport,ALL NEW!!!!!!! T.T Other friends of mine ''ping ming'' drank water to empty their water bottle at the check-in area,HAHAHA.


The journey only took 40minutes!!even shorter than the time we took to go to airport.Once we reached at the airport,we wasted quite a long time finding the way to buy train tickets/where and how to buy,and it took us another 20minutes to go to city central.


Ta-daaa!Double-storey train.From train station to our hostel was the toughest part.There are alot of tram lines,and we couldnt find the tram line we were asked to take to our hostel,our hostel wasnt near to the city central.My friend decided to ask the information counter for confirmation.At last we were able to sort it out and reached hostel in full piece although we stopped at the wrong station XD




We booked queen-sized bunk,the hostel was fully booked,4 people sleep on the double-decker bed and this room was shared with 4 other backpackers(from US,they were friendly XD)





Their bathrooms are even better than my hostel's one XD
Breakfasts were included,but in backpackers hostel you cant expect those 4/5 stars hotel's breakfast,their breakfasts were simple,like bread,cereal,milk,eggs,buffet style.

Okay,after arriving and settled down,we walked around the city(30 minutes walk to the city central),but our hostel was near to the old main city,which was quite meriah also.We visited Dam Square,Royal Palace(didnt enter,expensive-7Euro),Red Light District,tried pancakes,brownies and waffles.

Dam Square
Actually it's just a statue,similar to Trafalgar Square in London,perhaps,London's Trafalgar square is even better XD

Royal Palace under renovation,and Red Light District was the highlight.

I only manage to grap 1 photo of this,camera is prohibited in this place.There are rows of shops with big windows.Each window/room is occupied by girl(prostitute) with bikini and the guys can choose which girl they like as they walking along the street.There are red light on the wall of each room,red light= the girl is available.

We tried the brownies and pancakes at Renes' Restaurant.

This brownies was AWESOME!

And later,we tried the pancakes from ''The Pancakes Bakery'',recommended by tourists from internet.I think this shop was really well-known,when we reached there(5pm+),the waitress asked us whether we'd reservation or not,and the shop was crowded with people.She wanted to tell us there's no place for us,but my friend asked her how long we need to wait,she went back into the shop and told us to wait for another 5minutes when she came out.So ''da-pai'' huh.

Banana and Nutela pancake,one for 9.95 Euro.Nice but not impressive,i prefer Haegen Daaz's pancakes with ice cream XD


THIS WAS SUPERB!!!!Dutch Pofferjes with cranberries,whipped cream and Kirsch(cherrie liqueur),one for 6.95 Euro

We also tried Australian pancakes,went to Australian because the pancakes and chocolates were attracting!!! XD

Although it was waffle from ''Australian'',but I think it was assimilated with the waffle from Netherland,'cuz I tried a waffle(no photo XD) bought from the market,it has exactly the same texture.It is different from the waffle in Malaysia,more chewy,out-layer is crispy and sweeter,you can actually ''chew'' the granulated sugar.I like the texture,it will be purrrfecttt without the granulated sugar,haha.

We were mad about the ''I AMSTERDAM'' logo in the city.



Tadaaaa :)

We went for a bike tour on the second day.And that covered cheese farm,wooden shoes,windmill and countryside of Netherland.It was really fun,BUT,the tour guide zzz cycled sOOOOO fast and me,budak bandar,always the be the last one among the group members,LOL,AND I FELL DOWN.Luckily no1 saw that,they were far more ahead than me,HAHAHAHA.



Pity the guys,they were helping the girls to take our stuffs while we were craziee taking photos of the windmill.


The cheese was really NICEEEEEE <3

Wooden shoes ;p

Super exhausted after the bike tour,which took around 4hours+.Later we hang out at the bar.

This is much much better than carlsberg,haha.
It costs 4.40Euro.In restaurant,one glass of tap water costs 2.00 Euro,same with that of Heineken,unbelievable O.O

Third day rained!!We went to Keukenhof Garden,nice,lovely garden with tulips all over,but it will be much prettier in the end of April.








hah,we also tried the McD in Amsterdam--McKroket





It is beef at the outer layer,but inside,it's kinda like...mashed potato+mayo,quite nice =))

Fourth day!We went to Kinderdijk,it's at the outskirt of the country.
http://www.kinderdijk.com/index.htm
Anyone interested can go to the website and have a look.My friend who found out this place,didnt know how long is the journey to travel there.Guess what,we took a train(30minutes) to another city and from there,took a bus(1hour 30minutes) to reach there!!But we stayed for like...30minutes then we went back zzzz 'cuz the wind was really really strong and we didnt know that,we only wore a thin jacket/coat,unbearable!
There are 19 windmills and in 1997 the mills of Kinderdijk were put on the World Heritage List of UNESCO.
I didnt count the number of windmills,my eyes were half opened all the time due to the strong wind,LOL.










Okiess,this was our last destination =)) On the last day,we were all SICKED of pancakes/waffles and other sweet desserts!!zzzz Craving for salty food although I used to love desserts for life XD

Overall it was quite FUN but abit tiring,haha,I ''collapsed'' for more than 14 hours the next day I reached London.When reaching London,I was really relieved:I AM BACK!!I cant believe London becoming so dear to me and wonder,next time when I'm back from Malaysia,will I feel the same,as in:I'm BACK to London again??Hahah.I took the wholeeeeeeee morning to create this blog ahh,EHEM,PHANG AMAK,U havent even post ur debate competition entry =P

Have a nice day ah maksss!! muacksss
