XIII

Mom, I would give anything to have a simple lunch with you in Ampang, like we use to do when I was in primary school.

I wouldn't mind walking along Tasik Titiwangsa with you in the evening.

I wish to spent a day just talking to you, updating my life and listening to your life story and advices.

I miss you and love you, Mummy....

Awesome weekend it was!

Last weekend was 1 of d happiest (and eventful) weekends I had in a long time.

I returned to Kuala Lumpur again (since the week before), this time to meet my family, friends and colleagues.

The main purpose was to attend David and Dewgem's wedding dinner at Tropicana Golf Club on Saturday, and I got the chance to meet up with the couple and Baby G, as well as catch up with Justin Tan, Bernard Yee, Eunice, Amanda, Sui Li, Tan Jo-Anne and Jessica as well as Eu Wah, my former coursemate back in UTAR.

The wine and fellowship was good, and I like the simple, yet touching ceremony.

On Sunday, I had the chance to meet up with my former cell group members, as well as church members in Revival Centre in Ampang. It was a bonus to celebrate Justin's and Joey's birthday at KFC in Bandar Baru Ampang.

The journey with my almost defunct Proton Saga was trechrous, but I manage to put on and meet my bosses and colleagues in the main offices in PJ. It was great to see old faces as well as new.

To top it all up, spending time with my parents and Rowen and Ernest was a gem too, and I hope to come dowm more often, if I can.


dinner with family along Jalan Pahang.

There is so much more for me to live for. I know.

Karpal n Gurmit - an inspiration found today.

Today, I got to witness something great, that made an impact on me, left me an impression of awesomeness.

This morning, DAP chairman n veteran lawyer Karpal Singh was awarded over RM2 million in the 2005 accident, which left him wheelchair-bound. Click the link for the story - http://m.thesundaily.my/news/169894

The story was great, but what was greater was the story shared by Karpal's wife, Gurmit Singh.

While waiting for the amount won in the case, my counterparts and I managed to chat with her, and this strong-willed woman shared her life after the accident.

She told us how tedious it has been since the accident, where Karpal has to be assisted from the time he gets up till the time he goes to sleep; he is surrounded by people all the time.

"I will not get the same Karpal again," she said, and she teared up a little as she recalls the accident that took her man's mobility away from him.

Listening to her experience, I viewed that Gurmit had lived out the marriage vow of 'For better or worse' by being by Karpal's side even in this condition.

And due to the accident, he is constantly in pain, and take painkillers when the attacks happens.

But despite all these. Gurmit shared to us the rise of this great defender. He was still sharp as a knife in his thoughts, and able to serve his constituents as a Member of Parliament less than a year after the accident.

"When he is focused at work, the pain is gone," she said, agreeing to the statement I told her, "He's doing what makes him aive to stay alive."

Karpal is a man, fighter and defender for the weak, and I look up to him because of these. But I respect Gurmit for staying firm, composed and standing by Karpal side all these years.

As the saying goes, 'Behind every successful man, is a woman', and I see that in these couple.

My hats off to them.

I pray I can find my 'iron woman' one day. But I need to be the Iron-man before that can take place. I shall move forward....

This is a signage place on the wall of Karpal's office in Jalan Greenhall, in George Town here.

Steve's in iNirvana? anyhow, he lived incredibly!

The tech world and social network when abuzz with the demise of Steve Jobs, the co-founder of Apple, this morning.

May this impactful visionary rest in peace.

Go here http://www.thesundaily.my/news/167802 to read more about it.

What really caught my attention was this part of d article;

"Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life," Jobs said during a Stanford commencement ceremony in 2005.

"Because almost everything – all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure – these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important."

"Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart."


At d end of d day, I believe it's important to live life to d fullest potential we can.

I want to move forward, n not live in regret....


"13 Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus" - Philippians 3:13-14 (NIV)

Recording down d days.

As time passes by, it's best for me to record experiences and what has happened in my day, as a reminder and lesson to both my readers and myself.

After all, sharing my thoughts on this blog was to serve that purpose. And I plan to continue this... Provided i can commit.

I will try to update this blog often, and I don't want the sun to go down on it.

Instead, I want God's glory to shine like the sun for us all, as I believe God as a plan for those who love Him, plans to prosper and not to harm.
