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 =)

Chichele Road

Farewell to the tiny room at St Pauls Avenue. Goodbye to the always "happening" OZ housemates. Leaving behind those tiny creatures - beg bugs -_-. I am saying hello to our new flat at Chichele Road ! After all we have been through we can finally move out from the house with 11 rooms and more than 15 housemates. All the unwashed dishes in the kitchen, unwashed jeans & dirty underwear hanging in the shared bathroom, shoes & clothes that scattered everywhere on the floor, housemates that always booze & party & etc etc. If you are looking for a place to stay in London, never ever go for accom*modation Lon*donn. Why? The beg bug drama alone is enough to stop you from living in the house T___T Anyway, the new flat is 3 times (or more?) larger than our previous room in St Pauls. At least, 3 of us don't have to stay in the same tiny room anymore. Pictures time! The room for 2 pretty girls *cough* not women *cough* Taken with another camera mode Lounge/Reception or

[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

2021 Recap

My 2021 was definitely not all sunshine and rainbows but looking back my heart has chosen to remember more of the good ones:  Consistent workout throughout the year I managed to maintain 3 - 4 workout sessions per week with one goal in mind - for health, be it physically or mentally. The key to maintain consistency is to turn workout into part of your lifestyle and most importantly, go for routines that you are comfortable with. I've tried multiple workout programs and I found these work best for me -  Yoga with Kassandra and standing workouts from Chloe Ting . Sometimes when I don't feel like following instructions from the TV, I will hop on the cross trainer for 30-45 mins and of course walking the dogs help too!  Completed my therapy sessions  At times I questioned myself why "waste" my precious weekend albeit just an hour to attend the therapy sessions. Yet, no regrets after completing a total of 8 sessions with the therapist. It helps me to understand myself bet
