I'm blown away by this pool.
Who wouldn't love living here and enjoying this facility?
Anyone knows where this?Anyone lives here?...

90/366: tuesdays.with.morrie
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....
86/366: patty
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...
85/366: lorax
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...
84/366: pizza
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...
83/366: ipod
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...
82/366: sher
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.
Zoning out...
81/366: iceprincess
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...
80/366: victims
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...
79/366: soup
My first time boiling soup today, grandma taught me previously!Ironically I enjoyed chopping and slicing ingredients, then piling them up so that I can take a good shot :PYou do realized that the chicken meat above is already cooked?Apparently my grandma taught me to boil the chicken meat before boiling it together in the soup: to allow its oil to flow out.Why? So that the main soup itself would not be so oily ! :D Cool...
78/366: parking
My failed parking :(
One of the main reasons I seldom drive (besides not having a car) is because I'm definitely not well equipped in parking properly...
Need tons a lot more of practice!
One friend of mine was really nice this evening to force me to drive his car tho! Because he knows my fear.
I will improve....
77/366: carls.jr
I had my first Carl's Jr. Burger today !!!
I'm so outdated oh my yes I know.
It's a little pricey............... but the burger portion is SO BIG (my picture is misleading)........... !
Juicy + big + satisfying burger = Claire's bloated tummy !!!
Weeee. But instead of the burger, the best thing I love was the french fries ! It's really tasty, a good alternative to McD ones!
Ju, Sze Jie, Pau and I were really blur heads...
76/366: psp
Was shocked to find out that I placed 12 out of 80 in 7-Eleven's What's The Big Deal (click!) game on Facebook !
They contacted me and I am really happy that I would be able to purchase a Sony PSP at RM 7 for my youngest brother! He's been dreaming for one for ages, and this is really the ultimate amazing blessing. The cutest thing is that he already piled RM 7 worth of coins for me, from his savings!
Aww.
Yesterday...
75/366: bakfoong
Today my grandma went yumcha with a couple, and she was so thoughtful to have bought me THIS !
Remember my post describing about period pain ? Hahaha click here for it !
This is one of the methods I've always heard for YEARS and never got my hands on it...... now I'm really anticipated to see whether it really works.
The ingredients are really creepy tho. Black hen bone was one of it........... creepy !
Grandmothers...
74/366: determination
Felt overwhelmed and felt like giving up a lot of things I was doing.Found this old scroll I used to hang in the wall of my old bedroom.Such a great reminder at the right time.Basically when translated, the title means "Life's Goal", and the content is to not speak about yesterday's failure, to not dream foolishly about tomorrow, to catch hold of every moment in front of us, and to push hard towards our life's goal(s) in order...
73/366: karaoke
Hahaha, thanks Sher for this shot of me!
Such a FUN day with Sher and Aly !
Aly suggested that instead of some regular yumcha, we should hang and go sing karaoke and we did ! We ate at one of my most favorite eating places, Wong Kok, and for karaoke we went to Loudspeaker @ First Subang !
Gosh I really really really forgot how FUN singing karaoke was ! Haven't did so for a few years.We really enjoyed our time, belting our...
72/366: metronome
A million thank yous to Jon Ong, one buddy of mine who is willing to lend me his metronome ! :DIt's the thing above the piano there, shaped like a triangular thingy, it's like a thing that goes "tick tick tick tick", in purpose to assist in timing while practicing the piano!Such a shame that although I've learned piano for many years previously, I was never asked persistently by any teacher to buy it and use it !Hence my timing...
71/366: full
Had a super filling dinner at Dao Rae, Taipan with the family for the first time !I am ever in love with Korean food :')Honestly I've tasted better rice, green tea, kimchi and side dishes else where.. but that's just me! Meowww.But the barbecued meat is really, really tasty though. Grandma praises them to be well-marinated, heh.A busy, exciting week ahead, I must be determined not to lose focus!!!!Wishing you all a happy...
70/366: chop
Daddy chopping chicken.
This picture reminds me of my grandmother telling me random stories like her, being instructed to cook chicken by her mum in the past.
In those days she had to buy/catch the chicken herself, pluck all the feathers, cut the chicken.. then only the cooking process starts !
Such a tedious process...... society has really advanced.
The chopping board above was handmade by my late grandfather.....
69/366: apple
Finally managed to borrow this book !"You Are The Apple Of My Eye" is one of the BEST movies I've watched last year ! It's hilarious, sweet, and heartbreaking at the same time...... reminds a lot of people of their first love, or their best high school years.Spent most of the morning practicing my piano, will spend the next few hours continue to run around the black and white keys with my little fingers....... and indulge in...
68/366: statement
Model of the day: The Fly
Material used: My dog's poop !
I took this photograph because I wanted to remember what my dog did today. He was making a statement to express his sadness, because I did not take him out for a walk yesterday.
So he chose to pooped on solid ground (when there's so many grass and soft ground around!), at the area where I would usually hang clothes washed !
Indeed he grabbed my attention, and...
67/366: grand
She's my only 'grand' left.
Don't you just think that old people are inspiring sometimes?
Most (or some) of their nagging actually makes sense, and intend to help us.
Grateful that she's staying with my fam for 1 week or so, she pushes me to do the house chores that I hate succumbing to procrastination.
Double sweeping + double mopping my house's downstairs floor took 2hours45 minutes ! Ahhh....
66/366: timing
"To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven" — Ecclesiastes 3: 1
Was hanging a large pile of clothes today and something about Timing struck me.
Those who deal with laundry daily will understand, that you need to wash and hang your clothes as early as possible because you don't know what weather the day holds. You hope, wish, and pray for maximum sunshine the whole day.
So some maids/mums...
64/366: marching
cleaning + planning
Ahoy mates !
Seems that my March dates are not packed right ?
Nope, I haven't mark my dates finish yet yo.
Most people have been having this preconceived notion that I'm super free because I'm taking a gap year (break from studying: one whole year).
But the truth is, I'm not, really.
Shall not elaborate, but let's just say March is the beginning of the busy months I am about to venture in !
Have...
63/366: leehom
I guess today I've been sadden by the fact that I've missed out on Lee Hom's concert. Been trying to hold my composure all week, by comforting myself for missing out, and not winning any tickets.
Do you know how expensive his tickets are, and that the cheapest has been sold out ? With others selling fast ?!!! Not every artist can manage to pull such a big crowd for Stadium Merdeka !!! Ahhhh.
The most shocking part was that...
62/366: hungry
First time wearing my brother's checkered shirt, and my new lovely necklace, heh!
Have you ever been very hungry?
Did your stomach grumble? Felt empty within? On a more severe note, did you felt weak?
Today, I felt that way. Not physically hungry, but with my hunger for change.
Firstly, I felt weak physically in a sense that I thought I could not go on anymore, although I am still in the beginning. I deemed that I can't...
61/366: burgers
Apologize for the quality of this picture, was too excited for dinner, heh.
AS = Ayam Special.
DS = Daging Special.
Nights like these my family eat dinner consisting burgers bought from the nearby roadside stall.
Watching TVB drama, while eating a burger = awesome.
Unhealthy = Yes.
Once in a while, therefore OK = Yes.
Self-comforting is funny...
