My Encounter @Mambo On Merdeka Eve.

Me I was @Mambo Zouk last Merdeka eve. Whilst waiting for Roy to reach, all I did was drinking &drinking &drinking with friends except for one incident which my friend introduced me to this guy who told me he was standing next to me all along. I was oblivious of his presence.

And I don't normally strike up a conversation even after I'm being introduced to someone. So what happened was he talked to me and I responded in nonchalant manner.

Until what happened later that made me decided to shoo this fella off.

Him : Hey cheers! *Gave

me his glass*

Me : No thanks. I'll drink from my glass. Cheers.

He insisted me to drink from his glass.

Me : Really no thanks. I'm not trying to be rude but to be frankwith you, I don't like to share glasses.

And I quickly added, "Hope you won't get offended. It's just a friend's relative of mine is infected with Hep A/B, I can't remember. All because of this.

Him : It's ok. I have Hep antibodies you know. You're safe to take my drink.

Of that, I walked off. He still had the guts to walk to me and said "Hey you don't have to be scared of me you know .. "

I just smiled and turned back to my friends.

Seriously, how stupid can a person be? Or how thick skin can a person be?

Bleed.

Absolutely Breathtaking

I've been so flooded with travelling in my head until I've become addicted in searching for places to go whenever I'm on the Net.

And I found this place.

Speechless.

I am so gonna include this place into my travel list - not now of course; when I am financially strong enough.

In case you are wondering where this place is, it's Katikies Hotel in Oia Santorini Island, Greece.

Ignore My Previous Post Because ...

I'm going to Korea next month!!!!

:D

I Forgo Korea for Redang Island

Yes you see it right. I just turned down my mother's offer minutes ago. :(

Goddammit!!!

All because:

1. I'd made purchase on airtickets to K. Terengganu approx 12.30pm today.

2. Stoopid MAS' promotion on airfares to Korea is so bloody limited;

3. Hence our initial plan to go in October (before Raya) has to be cancelled cos there is no availability on return flight which
we requested.

4. So mother gives a nod to her travel agent to make booking rightaway once he can get hold of seats any day, next week.

5. If booking is made for next week's flight, I won't be able to make it cos; back to point no.1, my trip to the island is on
29.9 - 2.10.



Now you know.

And the thing is I cannot just cancel my trip to Redang because Roy is going there for his diving lessons and we have already decided on the mentioned dates to go together. So everything is planned out already.


Well, think of the bright side, I can still visit the country next year (if time allows) since my mother flies there @least once a year.

db-8 Is Back In Town!

Found out about this great filipino band last year when me and a coupla friends made a trip down to Planet Hollywood after a tiring day @college (as usual we thought alcohol's the best remedy after a long day @whatever, tee hee). We heard they left for Indonesia after their contract ended.

Hey, this is not the usual live bands you see in most places singing Beyond's songs + 'Malam-malam aku sendiri ..' (I don't know the title) even the vocalists know you can't understand a god damn thing about what their singing; just as long as you scream your lungs out when they start to play the songs - that'll be enough; cos they'll also start screaming together with you :P

Ok; so back to db-8. Minus the female vocalist and keyboardist (lengchai keyboardist who can sing She Will Be Loved so well that he sounds like the main singer from Maroon 5 himself! -----> *ahem* One of the reasons why I frequent Planet Hollywood so much when they were playing there. Anyhow, they are still as good as before :D

They will be playing @Hard Rock Cafe; 11pm onwards until end of this month. So make your way down to Hard Rock before it's too late!!

Thailand's Latest Political Crisis

A text from Jin saying "Hey military coup is out in the streets in BKK to oust the PM. What's going to happen to our trip la?! Koh Samui/Koh Phangan/BKK how la?"

Boo hoo. About 14 of us who are deeply affected by the coup will have just one thing in our minds at this point of time - HOW LA OUR TRIP TO THE COUNTRY?!

I'm not exaggerating la. We are all so looking forward for our year end trip and now, if political instability is still occuring by then we'll have to cancel.

Not forgetting my trip to Phuket next month. Sheesh.

*Pray pray pray* It's gonna end soon.

I Watched Too Much Documentaries

Finally, I'm able to stay connect with the WWW for a short while after much absenteeism. Streamyx @home was down for a coupla days and notebook hasn't sent for a fix; luckily my boyfriend brought home his G4. But I've noticed pretty much features are designed with the use of Windows -_-''

And fucking hell!!! I don't fucking know how to use even the simpler 'just click on the bloody upload image button and get the photos uploaded' steps. Sheesh. It just didn't seem to work; took ages to load what seemed to be never ending loading of the image(s) which defeat my whole purpose of this post - to upload more photos of another awesome villa to lookout for in Phuket which I've found a week or more ago, Sri Panwa :P

That asides, I've been watching A LOT A LOT A LOT of National Geographic and Discovery Channel in the recent months. Sometimes, Travel and Living too. Earlier this evening on Travel and Living was this documentary about Europe's Richest People and how they've and are living their lives until this moment. One of the celebrities is Uri Gennel (Pardon me, I don't quite remember his name) who earned millions of dollars every month in the 70s and how he'd mentioned in this interview that the more in tact he was with the material world, the more he had lost touch of himself, his real self and the meaning of life. And how John Lennon was the one who saved him from falling into what, to many, seem to believe money can buy everything with just one question - "What is spirituality to you?" At that point of time, he sold his houses in Manhattan and Connecticut, packed all his belongings and left for Japan together with his mother and wife. He then went straight to Mt. Fuji and stayed in the forest and meditated for a year or more with no connections with the outside world. He then returned to the States to start a new life as he'd found the whole new meaning of life.And he gave his two cents worth on materialism and staying away from it.

For one who'd achieved that much in life to say that, it's definitely easy-peasy; but what about those who constantly have to worry whether they'll have enough money to feed their families/themselves for just one meal? Would they think about 'rediscovering themselves' at this point of time or find whatever ways they could to earn just enough money to survive? Ok, maybe not to that situation as the answer is obvious. What about those middle-class earners who have families/themselves to feed and bills to pay every single month? One left with no choice but to chase for money to fulfil his/her commitments. Until the point when one no longer chase for money but letting the money to chase him/her, that's when his/her financial is so strong that he/she, may then consider of 'rediscovering his-/herself' (Sometimes I try to explain things which I, myself find it rather confusing =P)

What I'm trying to say is I do agree to an extent money is not everything but without money, one cannot achieve what he/she wants in life and; Please bear in mind, we cannot deny the fact that almost each of us has fallen into the 'materialism trap' in this jet-propelled world today.

Now this is what I call perfect holiday.

Paiseh Moment 101

I met up with mother and a friend of hers, whois a reputable fengshui master in the country as well as in the UAE; for lunch last week. Whilst mother went off to the ladies, he started asking me about my education.

"So I heard from your mother you've just graduated .. Congratulations"

"Thank you. I did a major in Marketing in INTI Subang"

"Aaah I see. Why INTI? There are quite a few colleges around that area right?"

"'Cos INTI offers British programme which is just what I wanted. Moreover, mother said 'Sunway, No Way'

"Oh. Why is that so?"

"You know. Sunway is famous for its rich-kids-who-dont-go-to-college to enrich their knowledge but to show-offs"

"Oh. I don't agree with that. By the way, my son's from there"

*alamak la. salah cakap*

"I see. Well, I would say it all depends on one's purpose tho"

He nodded.

-_-''

Thank god. Mother was walking back towards the table at that point of time.

Ayurvedic Massage in Langkawi

I was watching National Geographic a couple of days ago when the documentary on Ayurvedic Massage was featured. This form of massage is originally from India.

Ayurveda, which means science of life in Sanskrit and refers to a 5 000 year old body of wisdom that includes healing and massage. The most important thing is breathing and follows by cleansing.

With such beliefs and practices with the use of natural herbs, it is said to have healed patients who are infected with illnesses such as cancers. And for many Indians, this form of treatment is the cheapest that they could afford.

Even the Western medicine practitioners are seeking more information about Ayurvedic.

For more information on Ayurvedic, click here.

I came across the massage which is now being offered in Langkawi when I was searching for accomodation rates in the island. Yeppers, might be going for a beach holiday again during Hari Raya.
