Sweet children o' mine*
I've been away for a while. It was for the best. It gave me time to rethink some things. I attended some school's functions in the past couple of days, and during the functions, I thought about all the possibilities. And I wonder if there's purpose. I know it's something I want to do with my life, to teach around and make things up and get paid for it. It just seems like the logical and obvious thing to do. But I wonder what's the reason behind it. I wondered what kind of relationship does teaching have with my life and why I'm so into it. Hmm* god * damn* I just can't get a good answer! so damned. For nineteen years of my who-cares life, I've liked art and I enjoyed it. I praticed it every time when I was in the mood for it and when I was TOO free. And I have to say, to some extent, I was good at art. [LOL! i heard boo-s all the way] I made it my passion. But then I discovered something. And from there, I discovered another some-thing. And what I had thought was my life and my passion had suddenly changed and shifted to something else. So I would like to teach, instead, because it was something new and exciting, and it took guts to switch over so suddenly. [I have guts huh?] I thought teaching would be a good escape from life, albeit a temporary escape.
And then after doing some serious thinking and reflecting, I came to the conclusion that teaching to me, isn't about escape, but rather, it's about exploration. It's about the exploration of life. It's a way to find a sense of truth and justice and control and answers. And that's exactly it. Life hands out questions -- sometimes more than I can bear -- but it never hands out answers. There are no equations, no formulae to get answers in life, like you can in maths. [and I'm so sick of maths! duh.] Teaching is my attempt in making sense of the world and myself. To use my mind in fresh and experimental ways, to flex my emotions and add depth and colours to my days and nights [The boy-boys and girls-girls were so damn CUTE! omg. And they had tonnes of silly but damn-they're-cute stories to share with me -- a LAO SHI (老师). A teacher. They called me teacher! oh god. I love all the standard one-s]. WELL. I think now's a good time to figure out who I am. And who I wanted to be. To me, TEACHING is to fill my appetite of the profound human need to grasp the patterns of living. I've been excited but the end of the day, a bad NEWS. Real bad. I'm so confused. I need to make a decision and the worst -- I HAVE TO CHOOSE! * urgh! * P.S. - Who wants to get sick with me? [For those who don't know, check the MODERN dictionary and you'll find the hidden meaning] and truely, I've been feeling sick for a week -- flu, sorethrout, cough, fever -- I don't know what's wrong and I hope to know it but at the same time, I don't want to know. lol. [in case it's some sort o' serious decease] =) *
It's DRAGON time!
"Xiao Long Bao or commonly referred to as "Soup Dumplings" is one of the finest Chinese delicacy. The exact origins of Xiao Long Bao is unknown, but they first appeared in northwest of Shanghai, at least 100 years ago. This ubiquitous little bundle of joy is indigenous to almost every culture. As you carefully pick one up with your chopsticks, you could literally see the weight of the soup strecthing the translucent skin down. The best Xiao Long Bao has skin so thin yet it has enough elasticity to hold the delicate balance of dough, soup and meat in it. "Yup readers. I had my dinner at DRAGON I (笼的传人-上海拉面小笼包) at 1 Utama shopping mall for both the celebration of DONG ZHI (冬至) and my daddy's birthday. Cool eh? [Not cool at all, lol] Well, this restaurant is famous of ramen and Xiao Long Bao and of course definately I can't slip any chances to taste all of them! lol! -- Em. How was it? I can't tell you now as I... Um. As I... Anyhow, you can try yourself! Ha ha. I tell you, the design and stucture of this restaurant is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO cunted!! mind you! Kai Yit will surely like it.
Took some family pictures and I forgotten where they putted 'em. Give me some time to find 'em out * =)

The beauty of Chindian.
Chindian, a term commonly used only in Malaysia used to refer to the offspring of Chinese-Indian marriages. And amazingly, most of them look like Malays. I checked and its not even in the dictionary. Well, There are also some words or phrases only used in Malaysian English. Typically, for words or phrases that are based on other English words, we may be unaware that the word or phrase is not present in British or American English.Malaysian ............................................................... American/ British
Handphone (often abbreviated to HP) ... ... ... Mobile phone or Cell phone
- KIV (keep in view-- a term I always noticed when I was working at the law firm) ... ... ... Kept on file, held for further consideration
- Outstation ... ... ... Means both 'out of town' and/or 'overseas/abroad'.
- MC (medical certificate). Often used in this context, e.g. 'He is on MC today' ... ... ... Sick note
- Can ... ... ... Yes/Alright
- Photostat... ... ... Photocopy, Xerox
- Cannot ... ... ... No
- One hundred over, one thousand over etc. ... ... ... Over one hundred, over one thousand etc.
That's amazing isn't it. That's Malaysia. Uh, seemed like I'm a little off the track. Back to the main. I went to Sanjaya's birthday party today and it was such an eye-opening -- I was soooo shocked when his mother (Chinese) can talked Chinese very fluently and beautifully. How wonderful! totally cool eh? I found out that there were actually alot of hidden stuffs to be discovered from this Chindian family -- Their culture, food, language and stuffs. His little brother looks like Chinese and he know chinese but he actually shy to speak out! How cute! Overall I enjoyed today. But not as much as Kai Yit did. =) lol.
Insects.
Clarification : Oh god. I'm damn angry now. I finished this post but I accidentally closed the window. Arghhh!? This is my 2nd time writing the same thing. Aww. Awful.Wake up! That's right, I'm back, sleepy head. Since now is already 2.25am. It's morning! Good morning. I missed you! Nah, nah-nah, nah, nah. By the way, I'm tired to repost this thing. Haih.So let me start off with some exciting news : there's nothing to eat! I'm damn hungry now! -- and perhaps, I'm mad. So this is a blog, and so I guess I'm supposed to, like, talk about my feelings, and what kind of music I'm listening to, and stuff about my insects. [ Huh? insects?! ] Man. What a drag. Okay, but here goes: I'm feeling a little pain, around my stomach area. I'm listening to the 'lagi-lagi' song [someone will understand] -- Mungkin Nanti by Peter Pan, just downloaded tonight. Heard that song yesterday in the bus which reminded me to download it today. And my insects...hey, where're my insects...?Well, met some juniors of mine today and I generously gave them all my perserved insects. [kind of not mine actually] . The word 'gave' is way too GENEROUS! Actually I -sold- them all. funny isn't it? [lame] The pocket money earned was for me to survive today. As I brought an empty wallet to there. I need money! aish. -(***No interruption today due to***

Lost in Malacca.
Hello I'm back. Yawn. Well, I've been up to lots of walking today. I attended a education fair today at Malacca Equatorial Hotel entitled "TURN LEFT? TURN RIGHT?" . Uh, How was it? Um. I will say it was kind of boring actually. Useful? Um. A little bit I can say. Just a little of it.
Actually we were supposed to attend the 2nd session (1pm-4.30pm). The 1st session will be from 9.30am-12.00pm. Luckily our bus reached there about 9am and we took the town bus and luckily reached there sharp at 9.30am. The time that 1st session had just started. But we were late . Don't we?
Er. So after the fair we still got plenty of time for SOMEONE and I to explore the beauty of the historical town. SOMEONE and I took alot of pictures while we were exploring about the small yet peaceful town.
EXCLUSIVE UPDATES! -- SOMEONE and I had loads of fun today. SOMEONE and I ate KFC for our lunch. SOMEONE and I ate chicken rice balls for our dinner. This time we ate at -- Uh, let me check my cell -- hold on! -- Here! yeap, we ate at HOE KEE. Well, quite nice and definitely better than the FAMOSA one. We walked almost the whole town. SOMEONE sitted beside me for both the trip to Malacca and back to KL. SOMEONE and I -- --

Okay , I'm sorry. I didn't mean what I said. I was just angry . You know. So, send me some OREO Mcflurry(s) to prove your determined existence. Alright? -- dealed.
