Games

Raft-building competition

I’m so proud of my knotting skill I learned from being a girl guide! My knots were noticeably neater & tougher too!

The floating activity

Me, being raised in the city, I have never played with spiders before

Go!!! *rafting competition*

Paddle harder! Harder!

My group (on your right) was 1 of the groups leading!

This’s definitely not positive rivalry!

The flying fox tower. Too bad, flying fox’s not part of the activities…

Significant events on my 2008 calendar:-

 

1)   Revisit National Zoo after 18 years. A rather disappointing experience…

2)   Received album containing photos from my studio shot. Miss these days when I was still so slim…

3)   Had my first ride on banana boat.

4)   Hippo became my special someone!

5)   Last training before conquering Mount Kinabalu: Gunung Bunga Buah.

6)   Experienced from being main contractor->consultant->main contractor. More convinced that I’m not cut out for designing work cuz lack of intelligent juice!

7)   Did my first polling!

8)   First time becoming tax-payer.

9)   Attempt to conquer Mount Kinabalu=fiasco. Read what happened here, here, there and there. Pedas white water rafting=fun!!!

11) Suffered migraine for the first time in my life.

12) Expelled to Sg. Siput for work.

Inside the glass bottle…

“I want to walk tall, believe in myself, have the courage to ask for what I want and need, and live a life that mattered. I want to wake up in the morning with a smile on my face and know that I am loved and that I belonged. I am desperate to feel worthy and I am hungry for the opportunity to live my fullest potential.” - modified from "The Dark Side of the Light Chasers" - Debbie Ford

Under the apple tree…

"If you are not spending all of your waking life in discontent, worry, anxiety, depression, despair, or consumed by other negative states; if you are able to enjoy simple things like listening to the sound of the rain or the wind; if you can see the beauty of clouds moving across the sky or be alone at times without feeling lonely or needing the mental stimulus of entertainment; if you find yourself treating a complete stranger with heartfelt kindness without wanting anything from him or her... it means that a space has opened up, no matter how briefly, in the otherwise incessant stream of thinking that is the human mind." - A New Earth, by Eckhart Tolle

Inspiring quotes!

If someone prays for patience, you think God gives them patience? Or does he give them the opportunity to be patient? If he prayed for courage, does God give him courage, or does he give him opportunities to be courageous? If someone prayed for the family to be closer, do you think God zaps them with warm fuzzy feelings, or does he give them opportunities to love each other? (God in "Evan Almighthy")
“To love another person is to see the face of God.” ― Victor Hugo, Les Misérables
“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” -Mark Twain
Aggie: "But what about the people who hurt you? Don't you ever want to make them suffer?" Norman Babcock: "Well, yeah, but what good would that do? You think just because there's bad people that there's no good ones either? I thought the same thing for a while. But there's always someone out there for you. Somewhere." - Paranorman
"机遇总是偏爱有准备的人"
“You're only here for a short visit. Don't hurry, don't worry. And be sure to smell the flowers along the way.” by Walter Hagen
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, wine in the other, body thoroughly used up, body totally worn out and screaming "WOOOHOOOO what a ride!" - by anonymous
When you travel, it’s not like you take a part of each place away with you; rather, it’s as if you leave a part of yourself there, like a part of you forever belongs to that place – the time, the people, and the things you saw; and over time, it gets burned deeper into your soul - by anonymous
