I'm blown away by this pool.

Who wouldn't love living here and enjoying this facility?

Anyone knows where this?
Anyone lives here?

As I was hanging around Segi Damansara for the day, I decided to reread this book I brought along.

I actually wrote down some lines from the book that impacted me, literally.

Here are a few:

• And I suppose tapes, like photographs and videos, are a desperate attempt to steal something from death's suitcase. (p.63)  

• "You know what that reflects? Unsatisfied lives. Unfulfilled lives. Lives that haven't found meaning. Because if you've found meaning in your life, you don't want to go back. You want to go forward. You want to see more, do more. You can't wait until sixty-five." (p. 118)   

• There is no formula to relationships. They have to be negotiated in loving ways, with room for both parties, what they want and what they need, what they can do and what their life is like." (p. 178)  

• None of us can undo what we've done, or relive at a life already recorded. But if Professor Morris Schwartz taught me anything at all, it was this: there is no such thing as "too late" in life. He was changing until the day he said good-bye. (p. 190)  

• Have you ever really had a teacher? (p. 190) One who saw you as a raw but precious thing, a jewel, that with wisdom, could be polished to a proud shine? If you are lucky enough to find your way to such teachers, you will always find your way back. (p. 192) 

Segi Damansara is quite unique.
Tuesdays With Morrie, is really one of the best books ever written, period.

Simple "fast food" lunch: Ramlee Burger !

Don't be shocked by the amount of oil that's oozing out from the patty itself ! Nope, I didn't add any oil !

I don't know if many of you know this, but unless you want more flavor (etc. using butter), you actually don't need to put oil when you cook (by grilling, or with a simple oven etc.) patty, nuggets, and sausages ! Perhaps even other alike processed food.

Because they already contain a lot of oil that will all flow out when you cook 'em and honestly I think that's sufficient... Adding more oil into it........ makes it so much more oily. Yikes.

I use a non-stick pan to do it tho... so hmm I'm not sure if an ordinary frying pan will work? Maybe not I suppose.

Grandma taught me this trick few years ago haha.

Don't be fooled by the scrambled egg behind. I declare it the worst egg I've ever cooked ! In reality it was horrible. The worst part at the end was when I intended to sprinkle a dash of black pepper on it, a spoonful of it flow out.........

The burger still tasted fine tho !

Today was weird.... Like a mixture of feeling productive and unproductive. How weird is that ? Maybe I'm still recovering from thinking a little too much. I've soaked my ears in some old songs again. Paramore, Death Cab, Katy Perry: forever and ever, really.

Taylor Swift needs to come to Malaysia also. So does The Script ! Ahhhhh

Need to sleep before 12 am tonight. I have hopes that tomorrow will be a BEAUTIFUL day ! *smiles

Went to church in the morning with family, then went to look at some houses with mummy.

Came home to rest, then me and my brothers went to catch The Lorax @ Summit ! :D

Yes, it's a cartoon. But don't we all have that longing or liking to watch cartoon occasionally? :P

One major attraction I was drawn to watch the movie was that Taylor Swift voiced one of their main characters! Heh. My youngest brother wants to watch it so much too. The movie's filled with some moral values, and basically the whole colors and animation is just pretty to me. Cute and funny moments too.

Check the trailer here, the last part's the FUNNIEST.

& besides watching The Lorax, we spent random moments eating dinner, playing at the arcade (boys, *cough*), hanging at Mr. D.I.Y. and other random stores ! Yes yes I couldn't resist and I bought the flower above at Mr D.I.Y. ! :D Only when I came home I realize it's meaningful as it's like matching to the movie !!!

First movie watched in the cinema today (I'm shocked too), and loved today, really.

Productive morning, weird afternoon and yummy dinner.

Forced myself out of bed at 8 in the morning despite having lack of sleep. If only I can be so moved EVERY DAY ! Must push myself more, eeeeeee.

Mum ordered Domino's pizza for dinner ! I'm amazed that actually its crust is tastier to me compared to other pizza outlets pizzas !

I adore crusts, I can steal other people' leftover crusts :P

I shall order more Domino's in the future. Because studying in the SS15 area last year....... I've been sucked into eating Pizza Hut more than ever, and I'm honestly a little sick of it ! D;

Tho there are memories of amazing people attached to it la ;)

I spent several moments of the day to finally digest my thoughts about this week' 2nd round.

Once again, I thank God that I won. The down side is that I dropped from rank 12 to rank 75 this week ! Scary part is that I need to really push the limits as next week there will only be 40 winners instead of 80.

When I found out that I'm blessed with the chance to buy an iPod touch at only RM7, I should be happy. Yet instead I was sad as Sher, Paul, and my brother didn't win!

They surely are disappointed although they don't display it. I knew they were SO close to winning. The bars are set so high this week.

Then, I finally shrug off my sadness, because I'm comforted that one day Sher, Paul, and my brother will win something(s) they ultimately desire !

To finally understand that the thing about contests is that.......... there will always be winning and losing. I really don't know how to explain my situation (mum calls 'winning streak'), but I just want to give all thanks to God for all the opportunities and exposure.

To realize that I only won the contests that I deserve (or need) at that moment of time. This year I participated in quite some amount of contests... and I did win most of it, but I still lost the others (of which some crushed me) too !

And I'm fine with it. You know why? You win and you lose. Here I am praying so hard to win, and there's like so many more people out there praying too ! So when the results out and you did not win does it mean that God did not answer your prayers? No, because He knows what you need, and you will have your time of winning one day ! Trust me, you WILL !

Remember to only participate in contests that you really want to win, because if not you should give the chance to someone else who wants to win it! And also if you do participate in a contest, pour your whole HEART in it, because if you win, GREAT, if you didn't, FINE, because you gave your BEST ! Also, stay humble stay humble stay humble ! :) 

Such a long-winded post, apologies.

Grateful that Sher allowed me to hop to her house for 1 hour plus between the interval of my BSF class and a special BSF seminar today.

Sher has one of the warmest, cutest maid I'm sure. She's small size and funny!

It was fun participating in the contest with Sher.

Hectic day tho.

Today was a day I slacked.

Was super unmotivated and lethargic............ hence I succumbed to watching TV, and found this old movie I purchased !

Watched the first half alone, till my youngest brother came home and joined me for the second half.

Few years ago when I learned some basic figure skating for a few months, I forgot whether it was this movie who inspired me to figure skate, or it was because I was learning it I was inspired to watch this movie!

Anyhow, it may seem like an average movie to a lot of people, but it is one of those movies that I will never forget as it has impacted my life in a sense. Even if it's just a little bit. My day started unmotivated, but now it's ending with sprinkles of motivation ! 

The soundtracks are awesome.

p/s Any friends who wanna borrow it? Just tell me! I'll be glad to lend you, meow.

Incredibly gloomy day.

Until I wrote a song, with the above sentence as my first verse' lyric.

Saw this quote in tumblr recently, and was amazed by the truth of it. Currently this few words that screams such meaning is carved into the depths of my mind as a constant reminder.

My song written was a dedication to those struggling with depression and suicidal thoughts/tendencies.

If you are one of them, my heart goes out to you and I hope you NEVER give up in life, because you are truly LOVED, and depression may be recurrent (I poured my heart to research it on my English research project last year), but I concluded that it is CURABLE despite many arguments against it. Don't lose hope, slowly allow yourself to stop thinking so much and you will be set FREE. *hugs*


If I ever record it, I'll definitely credit whoever came up with this quote first.
