friends told me it's again full of travelling around. (via my posts & uploads on Facebook).

2010 was my first ever FACE-TO-FACE sales job. it is with Hong Leong Assurance.
How did I ended up there? ask me face-to-face. virtual expression couldn't express.

The experiences itself was already.... *speechless*
2 weeks of intensive Mandarin class training I called it.
I could speak & understand mandarin this year, a whole lot more then what I could had spoken my whole life before this. *amazement? i guess so*
I could not believe myself explaining product to customers in 80% mandarin.

Travel fly & moving around. (to compile this here I would need to check from my FB albums =.=)

lost

it's been half a year since i last blog...
since i've actually started working in Hong Leong.. looking back..

life's been busy with trainings, attachment, and real sales...
and Raleigh caught up during AGM... yup, im back into the committee...
but for almost 5 months dah... i do not feel i've did much..

it's been long since i took MC.. and today is a day to rest & relax.. with tummy ex-gastric wound ache...

yesterday's Penang Bridge International Marathon was a great time i had... enjoyed walking with hands wide open & the scenic views of Penang Bridge..
i've never walked so far along penang bridge.. while walking.. some thoughts did came through my mins..
+ today i'm feeling sicked &... this brought worst thoughts...

what's my life's objectives & target now??
i felt my current position in this company is no longer as strong as i had... a month or 2 ago..
maybe hearing of other available positions open-ups my doors, windows & mind...

should i really get out there & hunt for more opportunity?

a little confused mind... little i do.

it had been even more ages with the CoLiStrian gang up in Genting.. last was F3... =(
this was with a reason.. for LiFang is on of the top 10 finalist for Astro Miss Chinese Pageant 2009... we are supposed to be in green...



had a super short trip over the weekend, without anyone from office realised... super syiok.. even tho did nothing extraganda overly siasui or gila or excited about... like what we had/did during RIMM, but this trip itself was a surprised... it must be the pressure from all the callings of penders



the 5 cousins... it's a replica of one of our olden days... yes.. same position, same seating... 22 years ago..



had an hiking trip.. almost non-stophike from end-of-the-world to Pantai Kerachut... in 45 minutes... only with Raleigh... 45 minutes is achievable...



long time friend.. misses her company lots in 2009 & i believe in 2010.. as she's now based in Penang... one of the last few nice photo shot moments with her..



did an amazing job.. even the boat skipper was amazed with my skills... =) the waves was getting a little bad.. and I was still able to handle it... *self clap*.. my map reading skills was from sea map.. yes.. u see minimal land.. 85% are blue.. =)
told him, my dad was once a skipper too... and sea is like my 2nd home.. i love the sea.. minus all the seasick...




it was chrn's wedding day... she look superb & amazingly pretty... another friend got married & started her own family.. many had asked... when's mine ?? haha.. after round the world twice ?? or maybe along the way... =)




a "land cruiser" trip to sekinchan... nop we went to Kuala Selangor for an amazing cheap seafood.. RM25 each.. with crabs, coconuts, shell fish & etc...
you need to really climb up this fella for a ride-of -your-life




miss the Benjamites lots.. had lost contact throughout the year.. meet up time is usually over CNY & Christmas services in FGA.. while all 3 of us are actually living in KL... lolx...





had an amazing New Year Eve spend with 2 pals..
a picnic cloth
2 regular pizzas
3 cups
1 bottle of coke
1/2 bag of ice
1 bottle of malibu
3 ipods
2 speakers
amazing star gazing moments
not to forget, highlight of the venue, an 3D experience of fireworks... *awesommeee*





my sis.. missing her.. loving her..
miss our moments in our double decker beds...
she will sing me TVB theme songs to sleep.. *cause i cant remember lyrics* & my sis speak no cantonese
we talk & share our thoughts, visions, missions, dreams & secrets while tugged under our cozy blankets.. with room temperature of 17degree Celcious





what a themed event... the girls enjoyed our Disney moments.. who said we can't enjoy Disneyland in Malaysia.. a collection from Disneyland around the world... =)
HK, Paris & Tesco Penang... *christal & woon chin's collection*



HK-KL after RIMM 08.. an awesome experienced... must snapped down such memorable memories...





my mom wanted to snap this.. haha.. christmas 2009 @ FGA.. nice.. i love the frame... gonna print a few more of these for pocket photos with them..




my first time to Luanti, great people, bad location .. =(
3.5 hours of motion sickness for dizzy christal to experienced.. hope never again...

that would actually sum up how my life was with my mini instax in 2009... less play, less work, still lots of traveling around.. and this time.. flew to HK twice a year.. if u calculate a full complete 12 months = 1 year.. i will be traveling to HK 3 times... huahahaha...

my first roll on my Qing Hwa & UWS

i've heard enough stories to made me *takut* & nervous to snap with my Diana F+ Qing Hwa last weekend...
that was my last frame in Diana.. i totally went blank... cant remember the settings.. was 'N' for day or night ?? hahaha...

so tak peduli & just a wild guess... i can't wait any longer to develop my films & see my artwork...
I LURVE both rolls.. !!!...

Diana F+ came our much more *colours* that I thought it might be... even my 1st time pinhole was great !!!..
framing went off a little... but it's just like how i wanted it to be... *smart me*...

enjoy the below with lesser words from me... let my artwork speak justice.. >.<
Below are from Diana F+....


sky from my room's window... CK did his Limbo...
karlye's birthday celebration... @ a surprised location...

my work station.. =( - super blur...

overlapping with the next shot... *ouch*
but i think this shot was just GREAT !!!..
.sharp.focus.clear.
it took me quite a few times of viewing this only I realised it is a double exposure... double exposure SuLan... with the sky... *a little failure, totally out of focus*
the sun was too harsh on us... lots of shadow & lights.. bad contrast too dark, under exposure, even tho with my cute flash light.. Blast was not strong enough.. =.=;


Below are UWS - white angel...
*credits: thanks to EveLee for trusting me to pinjam me, her camera*... composition totally SALAH...
i was being too nice to those people behind to shoo them off...
wanted to snap karlye only...
due to finger went into frame too..
totally cropped offed... kekeke
but the colours were GREAT. !!

totally GONE CASE... did not expect it to be under exposure..
should be the film ISO.. it was only 160...
did not managed to capture enough lights..
clear & nice... but cropped off too..
my fingers kept blocking the lense.. and i had cropped my photos trail-less-ly...
this is a great ONE... a 0.001% better then the 1st shot... a tleast can see my working station is very obvious my station..

VERY COLOURFUL us ! no idea why Hui Mei & friends was washed off...
lupa this is an analogue.. out of focus area might spoil the lighting..

i love this... this is EVEN nicer... I like the motion effect... A MUST TRY !!!

OVERALL-Y.... i love ANALOGUE !!!!

genting TRAILBLAZERS

it was awesome !!! .
as how my partner would have said it... >.<

we completed the course of 16km in 5.5 hours..
we were very looking forward for 3 hours... *which i believe quite impossible, as @ 11:45am we are still waiting long queue @ the last river crossing* =.=;

Friday night was tiring with an unformal Raleigh Meeting in Desa Park City.
we departed home @ about 11pm+

Sat woke up at about 8am+

uncle only charge me RM5... *whow*... clap clap...
stucked in jam for a 'long' while & pick up luyi from KTM, then waited for the other 2.. *my partner Shi Wei* and supporter Woon Chin...

drove to TESCO Selayang to beli our dinner & breakfast *we forgotten about our lunch* haha..
(note: it's also opposite Holiday Tours, luyi & karlye's office & where I will be having my 2nd interview there too, pray for me)
stucked in a super jam-ed JALAN KUCHING... drove all the way to Selayang Market (shirleen's ex-house) and made a U-Turn back to use DUKE... as the DARK CAVE road is jam packed & dont seems to move...

DUKE with a toll of RM2, was a smooth ride..
minutes later we went to Shell to pump more petrol & 'woon chin' went to changed our 'kemek' roti...
kind heartedly, the kedai 7eveleven changed for her wor... =.=;
*note: si woon chin & wsw argue over ONE PIECE of SUSHI !!! which both add up put tak sampai RM2.50 along JALAN KUCHING jam... super fann... =.=;

minutes later we reached the Genting RM5 toll and more minutes later, we arrived Awana...
i realised my rucksack was huge... ops.. *eh i lazy to pack properly, so i just dump everything leftover from last week's Sekinchan trip* and also my bolster... ssshhhszzz...

we registered, got our Number Bibs.. we are team "F 064"
collected our Goodie Bag, free Power Bag & got each a can of Red Bull... *shi wei went hyper for about an hour.. =.=;*
*i was still having headache*
listen to briefing for awhile & got bored.. they kept repeating the Water Questions 5 times..
then we left & headed to Vincent & Marble's room..
they PARTY-ed there.. with music box & bed rolling...
*i was still having headache*
vincent called & say jaga his room.. I told him.. TOO LATE... =.=;

at last, my room owners came.. *super thanks to Liza & Livyen for their room, wsw & I were too broke to afford a room*
we shifted our barang2, yes my huge ass rucksack and too more food & snacks from my car.. haha..
then lepak @ dennis's room for a while before heading back to 'my room' haha.. to cook dinner...

5 of us were feed with:-
3 chicken tight
5 packets instant noodles
20 sausages
1 packet Party Seafood noodle
1 biji of sayur (tak tahu nama in english or malay, cuma tahu chinese, 'glass raw vege')
1 packet of vegetarian satay

we were stuffed with just the right amount..
*si karlye learning chinese from lots of sifu & masters from the Kepong gang*

then we later had a massage session.. it was great.. especially my headache.. it was a relieved but it was still there.. =.=;

all these while si marble was repeating atleast the 3rd time of his master plan for CK & Poh-E.... =.=;
there are 3 LEVEL...
LEVEL 1 is....
LEVEL 2 is...
LEVEL 3 is... (woon chin: what is LEVEL 1 already ar??.... huahahaha... so woon chin, I ketawa & tergolek atas lantai lor)

at last after long discussion & some rounds of recce, we went to CK's room, culik-ed him by wrapping him up with his room blanket & throw him into a lift & press LOBBY..

continue with blind folding, carry him to swimming pool... turned a few rounds & push him into the Pool together with Hui Mei.
Lagi told him his present is in the middle of the pool lor... =.=;
while he shivers in the cold dark night..
we arranged tea candles & formed "Sang Yatt Fai Lok, CK" for him.. in chinese characters la.. i lazy to copy & paste... =.=;

then we proceed to Dennis's room with the nicely decorated balloons... >.<

and i've bought my first gulung of 120 film..
there's Fujifilm & Kodak ~ therefore I asked the aunty which is for what ??

aunty: professional films have smaller / no grains.
non - professional films will have grains.
but if you aren't going to blow them up, actually no different.
me: i asked, so which is Professional?
aunty: both...
me: =.=

(adoi, i was asking which brand la)... of course I know what's Fujifilm & Kodak is famous for la... itu aunty tak faham my Question lor... =.=;
*actually she's no aunty, haha.. just a nice chinese lady trying to explain to me*

so... i've gotten myself a Fujifilm. As I would prefer to snap more outdoor & definately the BIG 'R' people.. therefore Green will appear alot !!!.. haha..

sudah beli, masukkan, only I ingat, I lupa to check the ISO of the film lor.. haihz.. i got a ISO 160.. sedih... :(
so now, im quite stuck with outdoor shots...

this weekend my try Pinhole mode... *im so excited*.. words cant describe my 1st own money $$$ buy analog.. !!!

is finally back from 3rd Hong Kong trip

it's getting short & shorter...

but it was all fun & just GET OUT THERE...
i got too stress out @ work I need to leave the country URGENTLY...

check out Air Asia, the cheapest flight to somewhere I familiar & do not need to spend much was HK & the date, was last weekend lor.. haha...

last minutely took 2 days Annual Leave (my last 2 days of AL with Pru)... also tak kisah bah..

had a blasting time in Hong Kong !!!!..

the most memorable was my THIRD DAY...
HK had officially hoisted TYPHOON 8 on Monday 14 September 2009.
coincidently it was my last day in Hong Kong... means.. all my last minute shopping....

arggghhhh... i would had said, it ruin a little of my time there... sky got dark super fast..
shopkeepers are already in the midst to keep their stuff... (i got lesser time to shop)
all worried & wants to finish off their work ASAP & balik rumah...

inexperience of typhoon 8 me, happily continued shopping in Sheung Wan... i walked/ bristled my way from Sheung Wan to Lan Kwai Fong.. because I had got to get my favourite tee from H&M.. haha.. it's a super colourfull checked tee for HK$99.

loving it...

how was my trip to the Hong Kong Airport?? It was almost a nightmare.
I was already missing HK when I was shopping my last moments in Lan Kwai Fong.. (sms-ed Luyi)
after i stuffed all my shoppings into my rucksack @ Yes Inn @ about 6pm, I quickly wash up my self in the washroom before i grab my rucksack and headed to the bus stop below for BUS 11A to the airport.

happily thinking, i get to shop again @ Hong Kong Disneyland souvenier shop in HKIA... (wheeeeee, more Pooh)
mana tahu, the jam from NT to Airport was super bad.. they'd closed the 7 or 8 lanes toll to only 3..
I believe it was to reduced the amount of vehicles on the bridge (HK famous Ching Ma Dai Kiu)... as the wind was strong.. too heavy might break the bridge? maybe...

so the bus moved a few meters after halted for more than 10 minutes... *in my heart* sei lor...
i was already thinking the worst... who lived nearest to the Airport.. Tom, Spence... maybe i can ajak them for dinner... hahaha...
then catch the next available flight back to KL lor.. what to do...

after a terrible & miserable self-heart-to-self-heart talk, the bus seems to arrive the airport... according to my HP time...
i'm exactly 45 minutes to my departure time... sei lor.. counter CLOSE NOW!!!.. lagi it's HKIA... sure everything is on time..

before the Bus arrived @ Terminal 2 (T2), i'd grabbed my rucksack and all prepared to run to the check-in counter...
once the bus stopped, doors openned. i jumped out & ran as fast my feet could carry me... i was panic @ the big huge screen trying to find where is Kuala Lumpur check in counter for AA,
found.. it was just right behind the big screen...

i flew there, happily i was allowed to check-in... wah... that was like the happiest moments... in recent times.. i ever had.. i did not miss my flight !!!!!
i letak my bag on the weigh-ing strap... SMARTLY.. packed rucksack by me.. it weight 14.8kg... wakakakak... me super expert dah...

everything was smooth... the girl told me i have another 5 minutes to the custom gate & another 10 minutes before the departure gates close... and guess what.. Gate 47 is 2 trains away after the custom... sei again lor...

i ran towards the custom.. but my heart still wanted me to go visit the HK Disneyland gift shop.. so i ran there & check out if there's any Pooh Soft toy keychain... i'd been looking for it for months dah.. masih tak ada..

i ran down to the custom, everything cleared... double Phewed... *somehow raleigh people have a higher heartbeat rate @ these counters*, it's either liquid or penknife.. hahaa...

grab everything, got my passport stamped... ran to the train.. changed train.. ran to the gate..
everyone seems to be sitted nicely & comfily.. i asked "if i still have time to go to the washroom"... yes, i thought tak cukup masa dah... pergi grab some expensive chocolate as food.. as i know i will get hungry & AA does not serve food to non-pre-order passenger in less than 2 hours...

i even managed to walked around to a few other shops to hunt for my Fruitips.. yes.. found it in a shop... over priced by HK$3... dont carelah.. i still LOVE them.. hahaha...

almost bought all available on shelf... hahaha... there weren't much lor...

so happily got into the plane & i pakai-ed my sleeping neck pillow.. nice.. after allowing more air out.. it became more comfy.. and the eyes cover.. was just perfect..
i need all the sleep i need...

as HK was still typhoon 8, the plane had a rough journey the 1st hour... tiba2 jatuh, heart also can feel like pop-out.. haha. but it was fun & i trust our pilot...

hours later, fight delayed & arrived LCCT @ 2am+... sei.. last bust was supposed to be @ 1:15am.. called luyi, she wanted to come pick me from LCCT lor.. i told her dont.. it's so late jor.. let me check if there's still bus..

found.. masih ada.. pop-in told luyi, im safe.. still got bus... an hour later.. i arrived KL central.. should be 3am+ dah.. reached home also dah 4am+

after online abit.. i pengsan-ed.. took MC & i'm too 'sick' too work dah.. ahahaha

shall talk more about my trip & my photos.. (did not took much, was alone and wanted to spend more time shopping) and im also too lazy to dig out my camera which is in the bottom of all my shoppings.. hahaha

looking forward for another Raleigh trip to HK, i believe we will be as crazy as we did during March early this year.. excited.. all over again !!!...
