Wishing on the same star

It's so hard to leave you
I don't really wanna go
I don't wanna say goodbye to you
It's the last thing I wanna do
But I won't be sad now
Because till your in my arms again
You'll be inside of my heart
And wherever I go
We'll never really be apart

We'll be wishing on the same star
Looking at the same moon
When you're thinking of me, baby
I'll be thinking of you
And no matter where I go
I will be there with you
Wishing on the same star
Looking at the same moon

It's not really over
Baby, it will never be
Long as you keep me in your heart
I'll be there anywhere you are
And when you feel sad
Remember all the love we shared
And when you're feeling alone
Well, just look up in the sky
Oh, and baby, so will I

We'll be wishing on the same star
Looking at the same moon
When you're thinking of me, baby
I'll be thinking of you
And no matter where I go
I will be there with you
Wishing on the same star
Looking at the same moon

No matter where you turn around
It's the same sun that keeps shining down
Wherever we'll be, I know that we'll be
Wishing on the same star

GREAT SUCCESS!

OWHMAIGAWD!!!

woahhhhhhhhhh! Still can't believe it, but today was my 4-course session, and for the first time I saw so many customers coming to eat my food! The whole restaurant was packed! (but maybe that is partly due to the fact that the customers didn't have to fork out a single cent to sample my goods. yes, you read that right: NOT a single cent!) My parents helped fund the whole event, due to my failure in my first time session where I charged a certain sum and eventually couldn't get enough people to fill up the restaurant. And....due to the overwhelming response today, I may finally have earned enough to pass (finally!) at least one session of this 4-course events that my class have been doing for the last two months. Tomorrow I got to go see my chef to pass him the money earned during the event to calculate my food cost and also to see if I officially passed or not. But since my parents sponsored it, I think a pass is more or less guaranteed. It feels so good to do things right and reap the benefits... Bloody proud of myself now! hiak hiak hiak xD

Also, I am glad my parents took time off to drive up here to Subang to try my cooking and most importantly lend some support for my event. Three of my aunts and my grandma tagged along, and suffice to say I had the silliest grin (due to me being proud to hear it) on my face after my family praised the cooking. Apparently they liked everything I offered, and not only them, as many people I asked gave favourable feedback. As the executive chef for the day, I could not have asked for a better day. Overall I am glad that I have gotten this hurdle over and done with. Now it's time to enjoy a bit, but not too much. About two weeks more till the official end of this 4-course sessions, and I am done here. At least for the time being. After the six months of on-the-job training I will have to return to Cilantro to complete my theory and practical examination set by City&Guilds of London. So until then, life can still be considered a breeze... even if this 4-course sessions are energy-sapping! Still, life goes on...just gotta go with the flow.....

After the session was over, I brought my parents and relatives over to Casa Subang to show them my house. Took a quick shower, then went to IKEA with them for some shopping. Felt proud (again!) for showing Dad how to get to Damansara Utama. Looks like all those road trips with Eric weren't wasted... hehe xD Sometimes even I amaze myself. I barely know the roads around KL, but sometimes even the roads I am not familiar with I can direct people to the right path. Life is mysterious... haha!



 Ahhh...WHAT A DAY IT HAS BEEN! Gonna go get some sleep now. Tomorrow's another day, and also another 4-course session. Goodnight world! XOXO

how time flies...

20th of February, 2013.

yep, today's the 20th of February, 2013. how time flies. just about 13 days or so ago i was preparing to return home to JB for Chinese New Year, and now i am sadly counting down the last few days here till i return back to KL to complete the last month of diploma. then, i will be heading to Penang to begin my 6 months of job training. in between and the end of the job training i will be taking the 'theory' and 'practical' exams set by City & Guilds of London. then, a few months later, i will be beginning my working life. WORKING LIFE! wah lau...can't believe it's this quick! talk about pressure.... *sigh*

i will surely be back in JB, that's for sure. i will probably return around March to keep some of my unimportant stuff here. i will only take the necessities to Penang. on one hand, i am excited about the prospect of working in Penang, and on the other hand i am nervous about my future. just thinking of job training, the C&G exams, etc etc... i don't want to seem negative, but i really am afraid of all these things! *sigh*





well anyways, CNY this year was a bit strange, because unlike other years very few people came to my house to 'bai nian'. funny, that... got loads of angpows, so there's something to be thankful for! haha!



looks like it's bye for now. ciaozzzzzzz

it's February!

WOW! it's February already! how fast! heehee... can't wait for CNY. that will mean i can finally go home to JB for the first time in two months. yes, TWO months. longest i've stayed in Subang without going back... SO looking forward to going back to see my family and my two darling puppies! yippee! =]

anyway, i got an email from my aunt, and it contained an inspirational passage written by Lee Wei Ling (Lee Kuan Yew's daughter). here's the excerpt that stood out among the others:
    
"When the end approaches and we look back on our lives, will we regret the latest mobile phone or luxury car that we did not acquire? Or would we prefer to die at peace with ourselves, knowing that we have lived lives filled with love, friendship and goodwill, that we have helped some of our fellow voyagers along the way and that we have tried our best to leave this world a slightly better place than how we found it?"

- Lee Wei Ling


consider...think about it...

randommmmmmmm

There is a feeling we all have experienced at some point in our lives of losing the one you love. Despite the bad moments, you'll always remember the good yet can't help thinking what could have been. You'll always follow them, wherever they go, but somehow it's just not the same anymore...
