Im just practically wasting time in Studio when im supposed to render more furnitures of the Firmenich's office area.

Presentation next tues, and there is still the ppt and pboards on going to complete.

Gotta render at least a few more before i head down to training.
im crossing my fingers hoping its not speed workout again today.

I miss.

Had training today, the stadium was dark as the night starts falling.
The lights were faulty i guess, we were completing our last 200m before the sky gets really dark, especially after a short period of rain.

I was looking back at the track before i head down to the showers when i really felt nostalgic.
I didnt felt proud nor satisfied that ive completed Coach's workout today, when i normally would skip one or two sets, in fact, i felt the footprints i left in track, the bonds ive forged and everything else that comes along with it, are fading as every training swept by.

Im graduating next feb, im leaving the track not as NYP's athlete but just an individual standing on my own.

Was blog hopping, read Meiyi's blog and my heart surged with a sense of amazement about how sincere and compassionate she can be.
She will soar high as a nurse, and with her sincerity that she takes note of in her everyday life makes me feel proud of her.

I miss her, and Wanwen.

Hoping that ive got time to meet up, run and do some shopping with them soon.

Sorry that i havent got time to go shopping with you yet Meiyi, join us for a jog soon yea!

My blog is so uninteresting , i think no one really reads it.

On a random note, i feel like heading to Bintan to caress myself in the sea breeze! Gah, projects are such bitches.

For once, ive got gorgeous eyes all thanks to ct and her amazing photoshop skills.

Helo To Melaka.

Firstly, im pleased to say that i actually kept a travel journal to record down the slightly more happening details of the trip. Actually nothing much happened luh just the same stuff but am glad to see Grandmere and Mum enjoying themselves.
That was the whole purpose after all!
Everything in Melaka was still freshly familiar , since i just went there with my classmates bout half a year ago. So yeah, this is how it goes.


Day One, 11th Oct.
Purpose of visit: Spend time with grandmere's relatives and just a short getaway @ 0835 , we headed off in the coach, love the fact that it was a double decker and that im sitting alone. F.Y.I, im not being emo.
Sitting by the window, face basking in the sun, pluggin' in to the ipod, deep contemplation, its the start of a retreat.

@0900 was breathless watching 'Drag Me To Hell' on the TV in the coach. Horrifying Disturbing movie that still kept me seemingly engrossed in it.

@1100 Rest stop, Yong Peng.
Toilet, i need to pee.
Cupcorn and Tea Egg as a snack.

@ 1510 Hotel Equatorial, Melaka Room 810
Arrived destination.

Facing a pretty scenic view from up here in our room, we've a small balcony overlooking the heart of Melaka. Because we are located at the central, its highly accessible!

Grandmere's relatives gonna pick us up in an hour's time.

Grand aunt and Grandmere hugging tight.

@ 2155 Back to the hotel

After a relatively long day out hanging out at Jonker Street with Grandmere's relatives, we're back, tired and sweaty. Grandaunt's grandson drove us to a Portugese Restaurant for an early dinner. Had some recommended dishes which were spicy , loved the Assam Fish and Kangkong!

It was appetitising in a way or so. Grandaunt's family was very very hospitable. They brought us ard to visit 2 of their houses and then we went on to Jonker walk. Managed to catch a glimpse of all the excitement and nightlife.

That's it for Day 1 then, gotta recharge.

----------------------------------------------------------

Day Two, 12th Oct.

@0750 Hotel Room

Preparing ourselves to head downstairs for the buffet breakfast provided, yum.

@0850 back in room

Breakfast was awesome, love the cereals, there are so many varieties! We had all-american with eggs, pastries etc, and chinese congee. Am glad Grandmere loves it!

@1545 Back to room after a long day

After breakfast, we had a guided tour to bring us to Tan Kim Hock for some local produce shopping. Thereafter we went to the Peranakan Museum, yes, again, it was my 2nd time there but at least i could relate it to my grandmere. Afterwards, our tour guide cum driver brought us to a homemade Nyonya Kueh house. Was quite fascinated with what i saw! A few ahmas with their filipino maids i supposed, using their hands to make each and every one of the kuehs.

Treated both grandmere and mum for lunch at a Chicken Rice Balls store along Jonker.

The chicken rice came in cute little rice balls, almost bite size.

Came back with a few shopping done. However, was only disappointed i haven't managed to find a guitar shop in the area. Darn.

Anyway , got back from a swim in the hotel with Mum and we are gonna head out to find "City Music" .

Im determined to get a Ac guitar luh!

@ 1750 back again

OMG YAY YAY, i finally got my much desired Ac guitar!

12 RM wasnt wasted on the cab fare. Thanks to mum for accompanying me:D

I got the guitar at such a good deal, it was a total steal.

anyway we are looking foward for a Peranakan dinner feast provided in the hotel later.

@ 2159 hotel room

Shopping done, Peranakan feast was fab

Seri Nyonya provided an array of peranakan dishes like the all famous Ayam Pongteh, Assam Fish, Belachan chilli, Nyonya chap chye and i finally tried the chendol!

that wraps it all up for Day 2.

------------------------------------------------------

Day Three , 13th oct and our last day.

Relatives brought us for Bak Ku Teh for brunch.

Soup was tantalising but still i cant appreciate Bak Ku Teh .

---------------------------------------------------------

Well, and that was all for our 3 days in Melaka. I still had other photos of places we have visited but im lazy to post em all up ald. So here we go, it was an eye opener for them i hoped!

P/S: I think my photography did improved. Cam not wasted. Yay me, or not?

Retreat or not?

off to Malacca tomorrow morning.
Grandmere wants to visit relatives, me and mum just want to do some shopping plus accompanying Grandmere.

Back on Tuesday 13th oct with a less burdenised self i hope.

When all i really want to do is.

Life is too short to waste. Ah i want very much to go into these!
I need time, i need motivation, i need dollars and cents, i need patience, i need everything that takes to get me further.

omg DJ DJ DJ,im amazed with mixers and amplifiers.
