YES YES! Today is FRIDAY!

-
I love weekend! Who doesn't? (erm...maybe except those who are working during weekends?) Just ended my first working week in London and finally got my contract today. As per my instinct they sent to the wrong address -.- ! The contract is like 1.5 cm thick? I am still in the midst of going through the whole thing.

I stepped out of the office at 545pm today and it was freaking cold. Look at the sky ...


It's not even 6pm yet! (I think it starts turning dark around 4+?)

I miss the 7pm-evening in Malaysia. The best experience I had would be the summer in Australia. I remember walking joyfully at 8+ on the South Yarra streets with F.I.V.E and the sky was still bright like the day. No fear of going home in the dark and the day seemed longer.

On the way to the tube station, I will pass by a Japanese restaurant ...


The sushi restaurant near my work place. I always look into the restaurant and the sushis on the belt conveyor wishing one day I would be able to sit inside T_T. If I am in MY, I will not hesitate to walk into Genki or Sushi King ... great experience in UK, I would say.

Have you heard of the saying - the overseas moon is rounder? (even though everyone knows it is the same moon -.-).


Blur. It only reminds me of whether today is "chor yat" or "sap ng" (first and fifteenth of the month in Chinese calendar/lunisolar calendar)

My dad added me to his MSN messenger and we chatted online during my lunch time. We had a short conversation coz dad and mom wanted to watch TV T_T. It seems like watching TV is more important than chatting with the daughter oversea T_T. Ba, ma, just in case you are reading, you know I am joking right...hehe.

I think I am ending this entry here. Gotta be out of the house to battle with the cold T_T coz dono why the house design ar ...so damn smart! The laundry is outside!!

Have a great weekend everyone!

P.S. To the crabs, I miss you guys. It slipped my mind that I am very fortunate to know you guys coz I know you will be there for me no matter what happens and no matter how great the distance is. Thanks for everything.

P.S. I might not have a big pool of friends but all of them are my treasures =)

To you ...

I am not sure if you read my blog. But, I want to write this out. I've been holding back my feelings and emotions because I don't want to put all the blames on you. It has been 5 months plus since I knew about your existence. I will never forget how I find out about you on his birthday. How you've tried so hard to contact him although you know clearly that he's with me so far away from Malaysia. How shaky was I when I find out about his betrayal. I put all the blames on him at the very beginning. He knows that he's a man with a gf but still he has chosen to betray me to be with you. It's his fault for not being honest and loyal enough. I was heartbroken, I know things will never be the same again. Do you know when I started to have hatred towards you? When you kept calling and smsing him at night - Europe time. Knowing that I will definitely be next to him. Sending intimate sms to him begging for his return. I know you were sad because he's no longer

Geramnya!

I've been receiving emails from different ppl asking me questions about Working Holiday Maker. I wouldn't mind at all and I am happy to help but when you were being asked the same question for more than 10 times, wouldn't you be annoyed? Plus, you can find most of the answers from the vfs website. (but of course, if you are my friend, I won't mind at all...wahahahaha *hint* - at least introduce yourself first, before bombarding me with lotsa questions!) The most frequently asked questions: 1) How much should I bring? I have X amount of money is that enough? I've answered this X amount of times and I believe it's being stated clearly on the website - as long as the money you have is enough to sustain all your expenses in UK for the first 2 months. I can only tell you the rough expenses in London but if you are looking to go somewhere else, you will really have do some research yourself. 2) I am working as XXX in Malaysia/ I have X years working experience in X fi

[Jordan] Wadi Mujib Reserve, Siq Trail

I didn't have any expectation for Wadi Mujib Reserve. I thought it would just be another ordinary water trekking trail under scorching sun. Yes, it's summer now in Jordan and we have just experienced 40°c a couple of days ago in the desert 😣 It was only at the Wadi Mujib Reserve Centre that we realised it's an adventurous trail with high water level and strong water current. In fact, it's canyoning that we need to do: climb, wade, abseil and swim at certain places! I was reluctant at first due to the hot weather and had doubts if I could complete the trail. But hubby was keen and my father in law is going too (he is in his 70s!), so there really was no excuse for me not to. My father in law who is an avid traveller and photographer The trail started with a climb down a rock. From here, the water level got higher as you walk/wade deeper into the canyon. At one point, I was almost swept away by the strong water current. I grabbed the rope as tightly as I can a
