Preparation & Packing Stage 091125

2009-11-25T16:59:00.003+08:00

Woke up approximately around 10 AM only to realize that I am not feeling quite well (flu, sorethroat & a little bit of cough). This is not a good sign for my 5K Thailand Trip 2009 that will be starting tomorrow.

After resting for a bit, I wash up and decided to do what I needed to do before I start my journey.

1100 – 1200 hr – Have a relaxing brunch (chicken rice) while choosing some pictures that I want to develop before starting my journey.
1200 – 1230 hr – Send the pictures for developing and get my car tyres checked!
1230 – 130 hr – Send my car for a wash, vacuum and waxing.

BEFORE (look at how dirty this baby is after traveling on a return trip of KL-Kelantan)

Washing Period (Covered with SNOW!!!)

AFTER (JENG JENG JENG!!! So Hensem)

1330 – 1400 hr – Get a haircut because my hair is kinda long now (he last time I got my haircut was 7 Oct 2009). Need to long nice during the journey and I don’t think I should have a slot to cut hair in Thailand.

The details of my 5K Thailand Trip 2009 are as following:-

Vehicle: Toyota Vios (Black) 1.5 S

Accommodation: Planning to sleep & shower in the car, by the petrol stations and will be staying in hotel some days. It all depends on situation.

Weapons / Equipment:

Nikon D50 (borrowed from my brother) , Red Dell 1555 Notebook and the following:-

My Travel Bag :)

Ahboochak Journey 2009

2009-11-24T23:32:00.002+08:00

Hola everyone,

Finally, I've decided to make a return after a very hectic timetable. Since this blog started (January 2009) until now (November 2009), I've changed from a blue collar employed staff to a man who own 2 business. 2009 is definitely one of the biggest life changing year in my life.

Anyway, my current post and upcoming post would be focusing on my upcoming 5,000 KM trip in Thailand. If I were to add-up with my previous trip return trip KL-Kelantan on 20/11/2009 and today, 24/11/2009. I've travelled almost 1,000 KM (420+ KM is the travelling distant between KL-Kelantan).

My planned Thailand Trip is as following:-

25/11/2009 : Depart from Kelantan to Pattalung
26/11/2009 : Depart from Pattalung to Chumporn
27/11/2009 : Depart from Chumporn to Bangkok
28 to 30/11/2009 : Will be in Bangkok
01/12/2009 : Depart from Bangkok to Sukhothai
02/12/2009 : Depart from Sukhothai to Chiangmai
03 to 06/12/2009 : Will be in Chiangmai
07/12/2009 : Depart from Chiangmai to Tak
08/12/2009 : Depart from Tak to Nakon Sawan
09/12/2009 : Depart from Nakon Sawan to Suratthani
10/12/2009 : Depart from Suratthani back to Kelantan

I am suppose to drive back from KL to Kelantan yesterday, 23/11/2009. Anyhow, due to the flood issue with water level above danger reading in Kuala Krai, I've decided to postpone my trip back to Kelantan to 24/11/2009. Hence, it sort of effected my Thailand Trip schedule and I have to move forward the departure date from 26/11/2009 instead of 25/11/2009 (needed 1 day to get everything prepared).

This would be all for today and will keep you guys posted about my trip.

P/S: The trip is ON except the road to Thailand is badly flooded.

2009-06-18T23:17:00.002+08:00

This is what happen when someone creative got too much time in hand.

Marriage ♥♥♥

2009-04-22T15:15:00.004+08:00

One of my friend tagged me name in this article on facebook and I find it very touching. Hence, I've decided to share it with all of you :)

When I got home that night as my wife served dinner, I held her hand and said, I've got something to tell you. She sat down and ate quietly. Again I observed the hurt in her eyes.

Suddenly I didn't know how to open my mouth. But I had to let her know what I was thinking. I want a divorce.. I raised the topic calmly.

She didn't seem to be annoyed by my words, instead she asked me softly, why?
I avoided her question. This made her angry. She threw away the chopsticks and shouted at me, you are not a man! That night, we didn't talk to each other. She was weeping. I knew she wanted to find out what had happened to our marriage. But I could hardly give her a satisfactory answer; she had lost my heart to Dew. I didn't love her anymore. I just pitied her!

With a deep sense of guilt, I drafted a divorce agreement which stated that she could own our house, our car, and 30% stake of my company.

She glanced at it and then tore it into pieces. The woman who had spent ten years of her life with me had become a stranger. I felt sorry for her wasted time, resources and energy but I could not take back what I had said for I loved Dew so dearly. Finally she cried loudly in front of me, which was what I had expected to see. To me her cry was actually a kind of release. The idea of divorce which had obsessed me for several weeks seemed to be firmer and clearer now.

The next day, I came back home very late and found her writing something at the table. I didn't have supper but went straight to sleep and fell asleep very fast because I was tired after an eventful day with Dew.

When I woke up, she was still there at the table writing. I just did not care so I turned over and was asleep again.

In the morning she presented her divorce conditions: she didn't want anything from me, but needed a month's notice before the divorce.
She requested that in that one month we both struggle to live as normal a life as possible. Her reasons were simple: our son had his exams in a month's time and she didn't want to disrupt him with our broken marriage.

This was agreeable to me. But she had something more, she asked me to recall how I had carried her into out bridal room on our wedding day.

She requested that everyday for the month's duration I carry her out of our bedroom to the front door ever morning. I thought she was going crazy. Just to make our last days together bearable I accepted her odd request.

I told Dew about my wife's divorce conditions... She laughed loudly and thought it was absurd. No matter what tricks she applies, she has to face the divorce, she said scornfully..

My wife and I hadn't had any body contact since my divorce intention was explicitly expressed. So when I carried her out on the first day, we both appeared clumsy. Our son clapped behind us, daddy is holding mummy in his arms. His words brought me a sense of pain. From the bedroom to the sitting room, then to the door, I walked over ten meters with her in my arms. She closed her eyes and said softly; don't tell our son about the divorce. I nodded, feeling somewhat upset. I put her down outside the door. She went to wait for the bus to work. I drove alone to the office.

On the second day, both of us acted much more easily. She leaned on my chest. I could smell the fragrance of her blouse. I realized that I hadn't looked at this woman carefully for a long time.. I realized she was not young any more. There were fine wrinkles on her face, her hair was graying! Our marriage had taken its toll on her. For a minute I wondered what I had done to her.

On the fourth day, when I lifted her up, I felt a sense of intimacy returning. This was the woman who had given ten years of her life to me.

On the fifth and sixth day, I realized that our sense of intimacy was growing again. I didn't tell Dew about this. It became easier to carry her as the month slipped by. Perhaps the everyday workout made me stronger.

She was choosing what to wear one morning. She tried on quite a few dresses but could not find a suitable one. Then she sighed, all my dresses have grown bigger. I suddenly realized that she had grown so thin, that was the reason why I could carry her more easily.

Suddenly it hit me... she had buried so much pain and bitterness in her heart. Subconsciously I reached out and touched her head.

Our son came in at the moment and said, Dad, it's time to carry mum out. To him, seeing his father carrying his mother out had become an essential part of his life. My wife gestured to our son to come closer and hugged him tightly. I turned my face away because I was afraid I might change my mind at this last minute. I then held her in my arms, walking from the bedroom, through the sitting room, to the hallway. Her hand surrounded my neck softly and naturally. I held her body tightly; it was just like our wedding day.

But her much lighter weight made me sad. On the last day, when I held her in my arms I could hardly move a step. Our son had gone to school. I held her tightly and said, I hadn't noticed that our life lacked intimacy.

I drove to office.... jumped out of the car swiftly without locking the door. I was afraid any delay would make me change my mind... I walked upstairs. Dew opened the door and I said to her, Sorry, Dew, I do not want the divorce anymore.

She looked at me, astonished, and then touched my forehead. Do you have a fever? She said. I moved her hand off my head. Sorry, Dew, I said, I won't divorce. My marriage life was boring probably because she and I didn't value the details of our lives, not because we didn't love each other any more. Now I realize that since I carried her into my home on our wedding day I am supposed to hold her until death do us apart.

Dew seemed to suddenly wake up. She gave me a loud slap and then slammed the door and burst into tears. I walked downstairs and drove away.

At the floral shop on the way, I ordered a bouquet of flowers for my wife. The salesgirl asked me what to write on the card. I smiled and wrote, I'll carry you out every morning until death do us apart.

That evening I arrived home, flowers in my hands, a smile on my face, I run up stairs, only to find my wife in the bed - dead.

The small details of your lives are what really matter in a relationship. It is not the mansion, the car, property, the money in the bank, blah..blah..blah. These create an environment conducive for happiness but cannot give happiness in themselves. So find time to be your spouse's friend and do those little things for each other that build intimacy. Do have a real happy marriage!

If you don't share this, nothing will happen to you.

If you do, you just might save a marriage.

Ahboochak's Life-Update ♥♥♥

2009-04-12T00:30:00.000+08:00

If you read my earlier post (Refer to: Ahboochak Journey V2. ♥), you should know that I'm no longer station in KL. March 09 has been a really busy month for me. Travelling up-down KL-Kelantan-Penang-Kelantan is kinda exhausting but it is all worthwhile. My business is going as planned. In fact, it was much better than what I expected.

I am sure some of you are wondering what I am doing at the current moment right?

I just registered a web design + PR company called Vinspire Innovation last september and I have few inquiries from Kelantan. Hence, I have to be here in Kelantan to make sure that the deals work out. I've just completed a project for one of my client, you can take a look at www.spicedivers.net for more info.

Currently Vinspire Innovation progress / works & activities are as following:-

3 on-going projects
Submitted 5 quotations on March 09 and 2 quotations this April 09
I'm expecting to get another 3 to 4 more projects this month

So, yeah ... I think its not bad for a newly registered company right? Anyway, if you could do website like www.spicediver.net, email me at Joey@vinspire.net. I am currently looking to outsource some of my projects :)

2. I am also working on an e-commerce website of my own right now. Scheduled to launch it on May 09. Will announce it on my blog once the site is completed alrite? :)

3. I am currently working on a business proposal. I'm sorta 90% confirm to be the person who manage this project / business. Anyhow, I still need to go through the procedure by presenting the business proposal to my sponsor's board of director. The date of this proposal is on 24 April 2009. Help me pray that I got it alright? :)

So, basically I am like doing 3 jobs in 1 go huh? :P If the 3rd business project is approved, my this business is expected to open shop this August 09 :) Typing all these out makes me feel that I am doing quite a lot of things in 1 go and it is definitely a lot of thing to manage for a soon-to-turn 27 guy. Oh well, Have to work hard while we can rite? :)

Finally, here come my May 09 travel timetable / schedule:-

CONFIRM PLAN

(First Session)
1 May - Would be driving from KL to Bidor, then Bidor to Cameron and from Cameron to Kota Bharu, Kelantan
2 to 3 May - In Perhentian Island
4 May - Perhentian to Kota Bharu, Kelantan
5 May - Drive back to KL from Kota Bharu, Kelantan

(Second Session)
15 to 18 May - Koh Samui, Thailand

UN-Confirm PLAN
6 to 14 May - Might be in KL for few days then took bus down to Hatyai, then Bangkok
After 18 May - Need to arrange a visit to Bangkok, Ayuthaya and maybe Chiangmai

Hmm ... Another busy month ahead. What to do, wanna earn a living right?

*Sigh* How I wish I could get some TLC from Miss C ♥

She is my Cryptonite -♥♥♥

2009-04-11T23:29:00.003+08:00

Hola ! I'm bloggin' today ! :P Been MIA from blog for a while coz I'm so da' occupied with work.

Anyway, to be frank wif all-of-ya, the reason am blogging today was because I'm now chatting back with Miss C :) After I gave her the X'Mas gift (Refer to: At least I've tried ♥♥♥), we didn't really talk ... well, I sms here, tarak reply. I msg her on MSN, also tarak reply, heh :P

For those who know me personally, I'm sure all of you know that am a guy who has control over myself but you know what? am still nervous whenever I chat with Miss C on MSN :(

If I were to distribe mahself & Miss C then it would be that "I am superman and she is my cryptonite" (I know it is spelled as Kryptonite, need not correct me. I purposely spell it this way)

*Sigh* It's been a while since am "love sick" like this and being a practical kinda guy like me, I think this is like the 1st time in my life that I actually make up my mind to wait for a girl who might not even give me a chance to get to know her better. I've been waiting for more than 100 days now (counting from the day I told her how I feel). Time flies huh? That also mean that I did not see her for more than 100 days d.

My feeling to her right now is like kena AIDS like that, once infected, there isn't any cure (except miracle happen, where-by she gave me a chance)

Thats all for now.

With Love,
Ahboochak ♥

Taste of Live ♥♥♥

2009-03-06T12:12:00.001+08:00

The Master instructed the unhappy student to put a handful of salt in a glass of water and then to drink it. 'How does it taste?' the Master asked.

'Awful,' said the student.

The Master then asked the student to take another handful of salt and throw it in the lake. The two walked to the nearby lake and when the student swirled his handful of salt into the lake, the old man said, 'Now drink from
the lake.'

The student did so and the Master asked, 'How does it taste?'

'Good!' remarked the student.

'Do you taste the salt?' asked the Master.

No, said the young man.

The Master sat beside this troubled young man, took his hands, and said, 'The pain of life is pure salt; no more, no less. The amount of pain in life remains the same, exactly the same. But the amount we taste the 'pain' depends on the container we put it into. So when you are in pain, the only thing you can do is to enlarge your sense of things..... Stop being a glass. Become a lake!'

Yesterday is history ♥ tomorrow is a mystery ♥ today is a gift

2009-03-05T13:19:00.004+08:00

Here are two days in every week about which we should not worry. Two days which should be kept free from fear and apprehension.

One of these days is yesterday, with its mistakes and cares, its faults and blunders, its aches and pains. Yesterday has passed forever beyond our control. All the money in the world cannot bring back yesterday. We cannot undo a single act we performed. We cannot erase a single word we said. Yesterday is gone!!

The other day we should not worry about is tomorrow, with its possible adversities, its burdens, its large promise and poor performance. Tomorrow is beyond our immediate control. Tomorrow's sun will rise, whether in splendor or behind a mask of clouds. But it will rise. Until it does we have no stake in tomorrow, for it is yet unborn.

This leaves only one day: today.

Any man can fight the battles of just one day. It is when you and I add the burdens of two awful eternities - yesterday and tomorrow, that we break down.

It is not necessarily the experience of today that disturbs one's peace of mind. It is often time the bitterness for something which happened yesterday and the dread of what tomorrow may bring. Let us therefore live one day at a time.

Yesterday is history ♥ tomorrow is a mystery ♥ today is a gift

Gotten it from an old forwarded mail :)

Woah~ My first post on March 09. Am sorry guys & girls, ladies & gentlemen, my fans & stalkers and etc. :P

I am currently in Rantau Panjang, Kelantan. It is like the other end of Malaysia. By just driving for another 5 to 10 mins and I will be in Thailand already.

I guess this is the best thing I could do when I realized that I am so tired with life. From the center of Malaysia which is KL-PJ, the most happening states in all the 13 states in Malaysia, I am now in Kelantan ... A place that they don't even have a cinema or even a domino pizza? :P

I started my journey by driving from PJ to Kelantan started at 2 PM and stopped for my dinner in Gua Musang at 6 PM. The journey resume at about 6 PM++ and I arrived Kota Bharu, Kelantan at approximately 10 PM. 7 hours and a half !!!! Due to such a long driving hour, I decided to overnight in Kota Bharu :)

4th March 2009 - After having my lunch, I realized that the life in Kota Bharu is too noisy for my messy life. Therefore, I've decided to drive down to Rantau Panjang which is the border of Malaysia & Thailand. It is located 35++ KM to 40 KM from the main town (Kota Bharu) :)

Okie, for those who have no ideas what I am talking about, here are some "peektures" to make you understand better about my journey ♥ ( As usual, click on the pictures for an enlarged version )

KL-PJ and Kelantan

Kota Bharu and Rantau Panjang, Kelantan

Rantau Panjang, Malaysia and Sungai Kolok, Thailand

Seee .... How near am I with the Thai border? I could just cross over anytime IF i want (cause I bring along mah passport) :)

Ahboochak Journey V1. Summary

Officially started on 3rd March 2009 at 1400 hour (From KL-PJ)
Arrived Kota Bharu, Kelantan on 3rd March 2009 at approximately 2200 hour (First Destination)
Isolated myself in Rantau Panjang, Kelantan on 4th March 2009 (Second Destination)

To be continue .... ( aiseh ... macam citer power ranger plak ) :P

Moments in Life ♥♥♥

2009-02-27T11:36:00.003+08:00

There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them for real!

When the door of happiness closes, another opens; But often times we look so long at the Closed door that we don't see the one, Which has been opened for us

Don't go for looks; they can deceive. Don't go for wealth; even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile, Because it takes only a smile to Make a dark day seem bright. Find the one that makes your heart smile.

Dream what you want to dream; Go where you want to go; Be what you want to be, Because you have only one life And one chance to do all the things You want to do.

May you have enough happiness to make you sweet Enough trials to make you strong, Enough sorrow to keep you human and Enough hope to make you happy.

The happiest of people don't necessarily Have the best of everything; They just make the most of Everything that comes along their way.

The brightest future will always Be based on a forgotten past; You can't go forward in life until You let go of your past failures and heartaches.

When you were born, you were crying And everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so at the end, You're the one who is smiling and everyone Around you is crying.

appreciate those people Who mean something to you; To those who have touched your life in one way or another; To those who make you smile when you really need it; To those who make you see the Brighter side of things when you are really down; To those whose friendship you appreciate; To those who are so meaningful in your life.

This is THE MOMENTS IN OUR LIFE.

This is a very old pic (4 yrs ago?). See, I smile like a donkey :)

And oh ... the entry above is also another article I got from my forwarded mail :P

Tired of Life -♥♥♥

2009-02-27T00:12:00.001+08:00

Have you ever felt tired of life?

This is what I felt at the current moment.

February 2009 is definitely one of the my worst month that I can remember.

I had a misunderstanding which lead to an argument with one of my buddy, things has never been the same since then. It is heartbreaking cause from my point of view, the cause to this not even an issue at the first place. Perhaps I was wrong ...
I've gotten into few more arguments with few of my other close friends which I think it weren't my fault to begin with. It is just them being emotional and all due to their work stress or perhaps relationship problem.
The girl that I had a hard crush on. I've pursued every ways that I could think of to at least get close to her, but failed. I didn't even celebrate valentine day (cause I am being stubborn, I just want to celebrate it with her). Its like the more i tried, the further it went. You know what Miss C? I am tired and I am giving up d. Its almost 60 days since X'Mas. I will just accept the fact that I am just another ordinary bee that got into ur life and I am gonna move on now alrite?
I've given up in changing someone's thought about me too. I don't know why she hated me so much (she might not, but that is what she makes me feel). I think I've tried my best to improve our relationship from enemy to at least "friend" ? I even said sorry for something I think I am not on the wrong but yet, her perspective about me did not change. *Sigh*
My work, 1 of the project that I am handling is on a pending mode (as the client insist to co-operate). Hence, the payment is frozen too. I've taken every steps to make sure that the job move but failed.
Another close friend of mine makes me feel that I am neglected. The reason was because he sorta found a girl of his life and he is trying hard to pursue for her until I felt that I am invisible. I understand that when one fall in love, they somehow turn blind but emm ... but being totally blind is another issue.
I've just gotten into another miscommunication with another close friend of mine today. Its nothing. He asked me to meet up with this guy in Wangsa Maju to take something but I resisted not to coz it is way off my area. +I've always help this close friends of mine. I even drove down to LCCT on the same day twice for him. Its just that, I am too tired doing thing that is off my limit for this friend of mine all the time.

To top up all of the above, all my family members are out of town. Hence, I am the only one at home. Being home alone isn't fun as I thought it would be.

Being home alone without any other family members;
Being single and not receiving love in return;
Being in KL-PJ without close friends that I use to hang out with;
and
Being stuck in a work that I couldn't find a solution;

Has resulted

to having my meals alone sometimes;
watching DVDs alone almost every night;
and looking blankly on my monitor screen.

♥ Song of the Day ♥

Yeap, I am walking away ... I am walking away from all the troubles in my life as I am really really tired.

After being through all these, I've made up my mind to "disappear". I am going for my backpacking cum business journey that I've longed for. I am starting my journey earliest this coming tuesday, March 3, 2009 OR next weekend March 6, 2009.

The route would be,

KL-PJ -> Kelantan -> Perhentian Island -> Penang -> Hatyai -> Koh Samui -> Bangkok

I might go Krabi, Phuket and Chiangmai IF situation/my finance allow :D

How long would I disappear?

A month or 2 mths maybe? Depending on my budget :P

Anyway, not to worry, you can still reach me in facebook, my blog or email me :)

How can I be Mr. Sunshine that would bring smiles and laughter to my surrounding IF I myself couldn't even smile aight?

Taking a break from my current LIFE is what I need. Need to take a break to fix this broken heart.

Love all of you and always will ♥

What is The Price of a Miracle? ♥♥♥

2009-02-26T12:37:00.004+08:00

What is The Price of a Miracle?

Tess went to her bedroom and pulled a glass jelly jar from its hiding place in the closet. She poured all the change out on the floor and counted it carefully. She then slipped out the back door and made her way to the local drug store.

She waited patiently for the pharmacist to give her some attention but he was too busy at this moment. Tess twisted her feet to make a scuffing noise. Nothing. She cleared her throat with the most disgusting sound she could muster. No good. Finally she took a quarter from her jar and banged it on the glass counter. That did it!

"And what do you want?" the pharmacist asked in an annoyed tone of voice. "I'm talking to my brother from Chicago whom I haven't seen in ages," he said without waiting for a reply to his question. "Well, I want to talk to you about my brother," Tess answered back in the same annoyed tone. "He's really, really sick...and I want to buy a miracle." "I beg your pardon?" said the pharmacist. "His name is Andrew and he has something bad growing inside his head and my Daddy says only a miracle can save him now. So how much does a miracle cost?"

"We don't sell miracles here, little girl. I'm sorry but I can't help you," the pharmacist said, softening a little. "Listen, I have the money ! to pay for it. If it isn't enough, I will get the rest. Just tell me how much it costs." The pharmacist's brother was a well dressed man. He stooped down and asked the little girl, "What kind of a miracle does your brother need?"

"I don't know," Tess replied with her eyes welling up. "I just know he's really sick and Mommy says he needs an operation. But my Daddy can't pay for it, so I want to use my money". "How much do you have?" asked the man from Chicago. "One dollar and eleven cents," Tess answered barely audibly. "And it's all the money I have, but I can get some more if I need to."

"Well, what a coincidence," smiled the man. "A dollar and eleven cents - the exact price of a miracle for little brothers."

He took her money in one hand and with the other hand he grasped her mitten and said, "Take me to where you live. I want to see your brother and meet your parents. Let's see if I have the kind of miracle you need." That well dressed man was a surgeon, specializing in neuro-surgery. The operation was completed without charge and it wasn't long until Andrew was home again and doing well. Mom and Dad were happily talking about the chain of events that had led them to this place. "That surgery," her Mom whispered, "was a real miracle. I wonder how much it would have cost?

Tess smiled. She knew exactly how much a miracle cost...one dollar and eleven cents...plus the faith of a little child. A miracle is not the suspension of natural law, but the operation of a higher law...

This is to remind us that miracles happen every day, to each one of us. We just have to keep our eyes open and press on because, who knows, we may just be at the brink of a miracle!

Got it from 1 of the forwarded mail :) ♥

Failed to do daily blog -♥

2009-02-24T16:20:00.003+08:00

Hi Hi,

I've failed to blog the past 3 days. Finally, my daily blog spree has come to an end :P

I would like to apologize for those who followed my blog. The reason that I failed to blog the past 3 days was because for the following:-

Friends: Busy with weekend outing with friends.
I celebrated friendship day again :D ♥
Work: I have a project that I need to complete by this month.
So, sorta rushing the dateline.
Home: Have to move my thing to the new room that I've rented and organize it.
Oh gosh, I keep lotsa rubbish.
Leisure: Been spending some of my time watching DVDs.

So, this would be all for today. Seeyah tomorrow :)

11-2 My Friendship Day ♥♥♥

2009-02-19T00:12:00.001+08:00

♥Friendship - What does this word mean to you?

Here are some friendship quotes that I would like to share,

The only way to have a friend is to be one - Ralph Waldo Emerson

Friends are the sunshine of life - John Hay

Who finds a faithful friend, finds a treasure - Jewish Saying

With those quotes, I've learn to become a friend as they are the sunshine of my life and I treasured each and everyone of them.

Last wednesday, February 11, 2009. I called some of my close buddies from Kokorobox.Net out for a get-together outing. Most of us has known each others for 2 to 3 yrs. Within that period, our friendship has grown to an extend that I took them like a part of my life.

The gathering was held in this restaurant called Kopi Oh! (located on the ground floor), Cineleisure D'sara.

Without further ado, I shall now show you pictures we took the on that day :)

Happily Tired ♥♥♥

2009-02-17T12:23:00.005+08:00

Recently Bulat a.k.a Estee, da' founder of Bodo-gang and also 1 of my closest friend asked me this question:-

Joey, don't you feel tired being hyper and happy all the time?

My answer to her is,

I do feel tired being hyper but am not tired being happy, how can one have enough of happyness? I get even happier when I make the people surrounding me happy, coz by making them happy + seeing them happy, this is what I feel ...

Anyway, being just an ordinary human there are time when I feel tired ...

I feel tired when things doesn't goes my way no matter how hard I tried,
I feel tired when people judge me for somebody that I am not,
I feel tired when I've put a lot of efforts with good intention and I am not appreciated,

And I feel really tired when sad bug bite me.
But no matter tired I am, I am never tired of being happy and make my friends happy

Finally, when I was too tired .... I break down and cry in a place no one could see me; coz I hate people seeing my ugly crying face.

Because I wanted to go on a date with HER only + she rejected my date offer for this v-day = I did not celebrate valentine day BUT that doesn't mean I couldn't have any other plan aight? :)

I joined a pot-luck house warming party organized by house mates and the party turn out to be much more enjoying than what I've expected :D Thanks to Miss Sexay Chan for organizing such a great event ♥♥♥ I've also changed my thought about Miss Sexay Chan from a serious headmistress to Miss Good Cook d thou.

My Confession 2 YOU ♥♥♥

2009-02-14T10:24:00.006+08:00

*Yawn* *Blink Blink Mah Eyes* *Sigh*

Waking up in the morning on valentine day knowing that you didn't have the one for you yet could be quite .... emmm .... empty?

I sms-ed her Happy V-Day last night and she wishes me back in return. That is enough to make me happy, it is nothing much; but its more than enough for me at the current moment ♥

When I saw her sms this morning, it makes me feel like telling her how much I miss her, want her and love her; but that would make her feel uncomfy. Therefore, I've decided to make my confession here, on my blog (hoping she would read it) *pray*

Dear "YOU",

I know why I fall for you but I did not know why I fall so hard on you,
I don't know if this is love, or it was just a crush, but I know that you are a girl who I would want to spend my life with,
I want you to know that I miss you loads, wanting to have you in my life and given a chance to show you my love.

You told me you have other plan today when I asked you if i could be your date on v-day, if its a date then I wish you a great v-day date,
If the person you are going out with is a person you love, I hope he would feel the same way too,
I might not know you well enough but you seems to still live in the past that leave a scar in your life,
I would be more than happy if you could fall in love again, even if the lucky guy is not me :) (I wish it was me thou :P)
And I hope that lucky guy would know how lucky he is and appreciate you the way I would.

To "YOU", I want you to know that I love you, Je t'aime, Ti Amo, Sarang haeyo, Aishiteru and the list goes on.

Baby-faced boy is father at 13

2009-02-13T20:23:00.003+08:00

Woah ... I am having a really busy day today. Therefore, I don't really have time to write about my sharing. Anyway, I have this interesting news / article to share with all of you though. :D

BOY dad Alfie Patten yesterday admitted he does not know how much nappies cost — but said: “I think it’s a lot.”

Baby-faced Alfie, who is 13 but looks more like eight, became a father four days ago when his girlfriend Chantelle Steadman gave birth to 7lb 3oz Maisie Roxanne.

He told how he and Chantelle, 15, decided against an abortion after discovering she was pregnant.

The shy lad, whose voice has not yet broken, said: “I thought it would be good to have a baby.

“I didn’t think about how we would afford it. I don’t really get pocket money. My dad sometimes gives me £10.”

Little family ... Alfie, Chantelle and baby Maisie

Lee Thompson

Alfie, who is just 4ft tall, added: “When my mum found out, I thought I was going to get in trouble. We wanted to have the baby but were worried how people would react.

“I didn’t know what it would be like to be a dad. I will be good, though, and care for it.”

Alfie’s dad Dennis told how the lad does not really understand the enormity of his situation — but seemed desperate to be a devoted and responsible father.

Secret

He wanted to be the first to hold Maisie after the hospital birth. He tenderly kisses the baby and gives her a bottle.

And Dennis, 45, said: “He could have shrugged his shoulders and sat at home on his Playstation. But he has been at the hospital every day.”

Maisie was conceived after Chantelle and Alfie — just 12 at the time — had a single night of unprotected sex.

They found out about the baby when Chantelle was 12 weeks pregnant.

But they kept it a secret until six weeks later when Chantelle’s mum Penny, 38, became suspicious about her weight gain and confronted her.

Devoted ... Alfie holds and cuddles Maisie

Lee Thompson

After that Alfie’s family told only those closest to them for fear he would be “demonised” at school.

Chantelle gave birth to Maisie on Monday night after a five-hour labour at Eastbourne Hospital, East Sussex.

Last night she told The Sun: “I’m tired after the birth. I was nervous after going into labour but otherwise I was quite excited.”

Chantelle told how she discovered she was expecting after going to her GP with “really bad” stomach pains. She said: “Me and Alfie went. The doctor asked me whether we had sex. I said yes and he said I should do a pregnancy test. He did the test and said I was pregnant. I started crying and didn’t know what to do.

“He said I should tell my mum but I was too scared.

“We didn’t think we would need help from our parents. You don’t really think about that when you find out you are pregnant. You just think your parents will kill you.”

But Penny figured out what was going on after buying Chantelle a T-shirt which revealed her swelling tum.

Chantelle admitted she and Alfie — who are both being supported by their parents — would be accused of being grossly irresponsible. She said: “We know we made a mistake but I wouldn’t change it now. We will be good loving parents.

“I have started a church course and I am going to do work experience helping other young mums.

“I’ll be a great mum and Alfie will be a great dad.”

Caring ... Alfie bottle feeds his little daughter

Lee Thompson

Chantelle and Maisie were released from hospital yesterday. They are living with Penny, Chantelle’s jobless dad Steve, 43, and her five brothers in a rented council house in Eastbourne. The family live on benefits. Alfie, who lives on an estate across town with mum Nicola, 43, spends most of his time at the Steadmans’ house.

He is allowed to stay overnight and even has a school uniform there so he can go straight to his classes in the morning.

Alfie’s dad, who is separated from Nicola, believes the lad is scared deep down.

He said: “Everyone is telling him things and it’s going round in his head. It hasn’t really dawned on him. He hasn’t got a clue of what the baby means and can’t explain how he feels. All he knows is mum and dad will help.

“When you mention money his eyes look away. And she is reliant on her mum and dad. It’s crazy. They have no idea what lies ahead.”

Dennis, who works for a vehicle recovery firm, described Alfie as “a typical 13-year-old boy”.

He said: “He loves computer games, boxing and Manchester United.” Dennis, who has fathered nine kids, told how he was “gobsmacked” when he discovered Alfie was to be a dad, too.

He said: “When I spoke to him he started crying. He said it was the first time he’d had sex, that he didn’t know what he was doing and of the complications that could come.

“I will talk to him again and it will be the birds and the bees talk. Some may say it’s too late but he needs to understand so there is not another baby.”

Markus Chung Yau Ng .... Who is this fella?

I don't know him, I've never met him, I've never even heard about his name before and to tell you frankly, i don't think I even bother who he is UNTIL the day that he left ...

Markus Chung Yau Ng OR also known as Markus Ng born in year 1985 and passed away suddenly in his sleep on February 04, 2009 at the age of 23.

Why would I write about this guy when I don't even know him?

The answer is simple, after bumping into few blogs that wrote about him; it leads me to his memorial site - http://markusng.memory-of.com/. That triggered my curiousity of what is so great about this young guy. I start reading up on what his friends said about him on their blogs; and also the memorial site tributed to him, I've then realized that he is a special person who touches the heart of those who know him OR those who didn't know him, such as myself.

Markus' story reminded me of a friend of mine which shared the same fate, Alfred Alfie. If I am not mistaken, he past away back in 2005. He is a very nice guy and well loved by all his friend. Bro, I am sorry I could not make it to your funeral but you are always in my mind, I hope you are doing well up there. Just FYI, things would never be the same after you've left. For Markus and Alfie, may both of you rest in peace, you are always in our heart and we will always remember you.

To Markus' friends, relatives etc, my great condolense to the big lost, I feel you :) I am sure all of us wish he is still alive right?

Sometimes I find it "funny" that god just have to take all these good people back in his arm instead of all those bad people who ruined people's life such as robbers, thiefs, rapist etc.

No matter what it is, this story has ensured me that "life is short", the only thing that stay on once you left is only memories. How you want to be remembered, it is all on your doing.

This is my 24th post on this blog (23th day blogging), after all the sharing that I've made and story about Markus, I've made up my mind that I would blog to share my thought on why i think that "life is good" and "love is beautiful". Blog traffics is no longer my concern, my main purpose on this blog now is to shared as much thought I had in life that might benefit/change the life of others to a better life.

Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile. - Albert Einstein.

Valentine Day is 2 days away, advice for those who failed to get a date on that day,

STOP WHINING and COMPLAINING, perhaps your time has not come. So, maybe you should take this opportunity to spend time with your single friends. Friendship love is also love you know?

Be a good boy and good girl, listen to Ahboochak and take the chance on this valentine to tell the people you love that you love them right? :)

LOVE Abuse -♥♥♥

2009-02-11T00:18:00.009+08:00

3 more days and its v-day, I hope most of you has gotten a date and plan-out what you wish to do with your date on that day :)

I believe I've written and share enough with the singles. So, I think it is time for me to talk about the couples, this sharing would be focusing more on the guys.

*** WARNING ***
This is a sensitive entry, it might make you feel DEPRESS.
Therefore, read at your own risk. I am not responsible on any damaged done due to this entry is none of my responsibility aight? :)
*** WARNING ***

I've read about this topic titled BF an abuser, written by yvonne foong in Yellow Post, 2 yrs ago. The story is about BF being abusive, not physically BUT Emotionally. :)

The story summary is something like this:-

The BF controlled her life by setting curfew; stopping her from making friends with guy; reserved the weekend for him; and sometimes making her as his anger releasing sand-bag.

Abusive relationships are characterized by extreme jealousy, emotional withholding, lack of intimacy, raging, sexual coercion, infidelity, verbal abuse, threats, lies, broken promises, physical violence, power plays and control games.

For those who is interested to find out more about this topic, you could google it up OR try reading up this page -> http://www.recovery-man.com/abusive/abusive.htm

The reason why I am highlighting this topic is because, 7 out of 10 man that I've known, has a man ego that will lead them to be a mental abuser in a relationship. I myself admit that I used to one of them, and I think this attitude is one of the main cause the failure of that relationship of mine.

One of the most common mental abuse tactic used by men is "silent treatment". Men also think they are right and expect the girls they love to read their mind or hearts BUT the truth is, how do you expect anyone to know why you are angry dude? Its even worst when you decided not to listen and not giving them a chance to even explain.

Emotional Abuse is as damaging as physical abuse, though it is often harder to recognize, and therefore to recover from. Emotional abuse causes long term self esteem issues and profound emotional repercussions for the partners of abusers. Abuse typically alternates with declarations of love and statements that they will change, providing a "hook" to keep the partner in the relationship.

Writing this entry is really depressing for me but I hope it would help a lot of people (especially guys) to realized if you are facing such problem or not. If you do, please take the chance to fix-it this valentine day aight? If you love her, why would you want to hurt her?

This entry is also applicable for girls.

If you love that person, treasure them - Joey T (11 Feb 2009) ♥♥♥

P/S: I am sorry if this post make you feel depress, I myself feel the pressure and depression. Its the sad truth that I know a lot of people hate to realize, but with this post, I hope I could make them realize and change it to happy result :)

Love Hurt -♥♥♥

2009-02-10T00:12:00.004+08:00

Love Hurt, ain't this words familiar to you? I've known some individuals that is afraid to fall in love again because they've hurt so much because of this word, LOVE.

Let me share with you my most hurtful experience with this word called LOVE.

Back in 2005, I've met this girl that I thought she would be the one for me. She is one of the nicest, loving and cutest looking girl that I've met in my whole life. Any of the guys who've seen her will think that she is an angel that dropped from the sky. She accepted me into her life on Feb 21, 2005 :) From that day she came into my life, we gone through a lot of up and down. People says love is blind, and I am definitely blinded at that moment. I gave up my business that my dad invested for me just to be with her and a lots more.

Anyway, due to our immature mindset at that period of time, we often come to misunderstanding which leads to argument.

Me, being the typical guy have my own man-pride/ego which is difficult for her to communicate with.

She, being the shy type of girl always surrender even before the arguement start.

After being through all the hardship and when everyone thought that we would last, disaster happen. I received a rumors that she is having an affair with one of my closest friend, a guy which I respected like a brother (At that time, he has a gf that is with him for 4 yrs+). I confronted both of them if the rumors are true as I don't feel good about it, coz both of them were the people I cared most for that period of time. Both of them told me that nothing happened, in fact she scolded me for not trusting her. The result of the confrontation is me breaking up with her; and not seeing my close friend anymore. 2 yrs+ relationship as easy as that.

The rumors still goes on, and I told those who spread such rumors that it is not true, I've asked them and I believe they won't do such thing to me (I still have that thought until now).

After 3 mths of our break-up, she finally admitted to me that the story was real and she told me the whole thing of what actually happened. The reason why she is telling all these to me now is because she is having problem with my close friend at that period of time and was very confuse.

I listened to her story, on how it happens and all without saying anything bad about it; instead I tried my best to make her feel better by sharing her an ear. After she finished telling me the story, they went back together. I've never "really" heard from her since then, and I've never seen my that friend anymore.

After the incident, I felt so bad and I kept thinking of why it happens ...

Would it be because I didn't love her enough?
Was it because I am not loyal to her?
Is my friend better than me?
and the list goes on ...

The pain of having to lose 2 person you love and care most at the same period; knowing that they are lying and you are a fool is hurting.

I recovered from the incident pretty fast, and I promised to be a better person. I found a new girl not long after the break-up. Anyhow, thing didn't go well too. I am a person who do not believe in long distant relationship. Therefore, I've asked her if she is going oversea anytime near future? She answered me that earliest would be 2009 or 2010. So, we coupled up on March 17, 2007.

Time past and god is playing trick on me again. She flew off after we've been in a relationship for half a year. I decided to wait for her since the day she flew away, until she told me that she might continue staying in the place she is now for the next 3 to 5 years or perhaps more. I broke up with her after half a yr of waiting. And guess what? She is now back in Malaysia for good. Few months after we broke up.

I've gotten myself into another relationship after that broke up, but I will write about in on my other post.

The main objective I am doing this sharing today is to tell you, my reader(s) that after all these, I still have faith in LOVE. If being in LOVE, is being in PAIN, I rather being in PAIN than not LOVING at all.

So, for those who is afraid to love again, I hope you could give yourself a chance to fall in love again this valentine day.

Valentine Day Countdown: 4 days to go ...

Chap Goh Meh = Chinese Valentine Day ♥♥♥

2009-02-09T00:05:00.002+08:00

Yay !!! Its the last day of Chinese New Year. Chap Goh Meh (The 15th Day) is also known as Chinese Valentine Day where young-single unmarried women gather to toss tangerines/oranges into the sea/river, in hope that their future spouse will pick up.

Hmmm ... I wonder how is she celebrating her chap goh meh :/

Is she gonna throw tangerines/oranges? If she is, where she gonna throw it? (Of coz I want to go and pick it up)

Hey, I tell you all a secret (which is not that "secret"), I manage to catch a short chat with her last night and I actually dream of her. Sweet huh? :) That is the most I could have asked for.

So, how is your Chinese Valentine Day or the actual Valentine Day preparation going on? Have you gotten yourself a date yet? :P

After realizing that today is Chap Goh Meh, I sneaked into the kitchen to kidnap some of the oranges stored in the fridge to work on something that would express how I feel now,

(Click on the image to enlarge it)

I miss you, heh :) ♥

NOW, I have to make sure I finish up these 4 oranges (as my mum is gonna make noise if she found out what I did to it). LOL ...

HATRED -♥♥♥

2009-02-08T00:12:00.002+08:00

Hatred... its a word to describe intense feelings of dislike.
As the meaning of this word, its one of the word I dislike most.

Whats with all this hatred, peeps?

Love could be pain BUT I felt even more pain when I see hatred.
One of my believe in life is "We only live once, get the best out of it".
This is why I tried to filled my life with happiness and makes every moment worthwhile.

Malaysian politic is looking like a dirty chess board now, was it dirty because it is meant to be OR was it dirty because of the people?

Its my 20th day on blogosphere and I've realized something which I hated to admit but I'll have to accept; Malaysian Blog Community is as dirty as the current politic situation in Malaysia.

Was it Malaysia, Malaysian OR human mentality that cause all this hatred or politic to happen?

Can everyone be nice to each others?
Can people stop / don't spread bad rumors/gossips about each others?
Can everyone just be happy?
Can we be all be "a friend"?

These are something for all of you to ponder about.

As for me, I've decided to be the a happy me; Mr. Sunshine that will try my best to brighten my surrounding from "the darkness of hatred" with "the beauty of love" and "light of happyness".

I choose to be different, I choose to make a different; What about you? :) ♥

Word of advice for today

KNOW & REALIZE ♥♥♥

2009-02-05T00:30:00.004+08:00

Back to my LOVE Series write-up :)

Today's post was inspired by kylie's comment on the post entitled "At least I've tried ♥♥♥". Here is the recap of her post:-

kyliemc said..

oh well, not all girls can stand persistent guys..some will think that those kind of guys are annoying... if she can't accept love right now, why don't you be her friend first? rather than pushing her, give her some space :D give her some time to miss you..sometimes being too available for her is not a good thing...

When I first saw this comment, I was like "well, it is something that I know and I think I am striking the balance" but the next day while I was having my breakfast, this comment of hers came into my mind and the message was different this time.

This post is the toughest post I am making in this blog. So, read carefully and try to understanding where I am coming from.

KNOW is to perceive or understand as fact or truth; to apprehend clearly and with certainty and REALIZE is to grasp or understand clearly.

You KNOW your parents love you but you don't REALIZE how much they love you.
You KNOW you are smart but you don't REALIZE how smart you are.
You KNOW you are gifted but you did not REALIZE about it.

As for relationship's case, when someone fall in love, these are the things that happens:-

They would do anything to get the person's attention
They would go through every way/method to get that person
They turn into somebody else they themselves do not know
They would do everything they "think" would make the person happy
and the list goes on.

The conclusion is, they would do everything and anything that they "know" and "think" is "RIGHT" at that moment to get to its objective. Because of that kind of "mindset", sometimes they "FAILED" to "REALIZED" that what they are doing might be "WRONG".

We as a guy, especially the alpha male. We always thought we "know" and most of the time we failed to "realize".

I will elaborate this point with a common scenarios that almost all of us has been in,

When someone rejected us,

We still treat them well, sometimes even without asking anything for return. Give all, expect none.

We still keep in touch and contact them to show them that we are true.

We KNOW the reason of our action and we failed to REALIZED that the other person might not know or might not be able to accept.

YES, you know you are doing it because you want to, and wanting them to be happy, but did you realize that your good doing "might" give the opposite feeling such as; bad or perhaps sad?

To some of you, this post might sounds kinda contradicting with what I've said previously. That was because in the previous post, I am supporting everyone to give a try but in this post, i sorta said that you should give up.

This topic is very subjective and the main purpose of me making this post is to make sure everyone REALIZE this thin line between KNOW and REALIZE. You are the only one who know best about the situation.

So, make the right choice okie? KNOW what to do and REALIZE the situation :)

P.S: Thanks kylie for reminding me about the existence of this thin line between KNOW and REALIZE. :)

P.P.S: REALIZE came from the world REAL. So, be REAL, stay in REALITY. ;)

Change SEX, for LOVE? ♥♥♥

2009-02-04T00:12:00.005+08:00

Okie, I am gonna take a break for my "LOVE Series" today because I have something interesting to share with you all.

This is the column from "Dear Thelma" entitled Boy, girl, boy... confusion reigns in the Star on 1st February 2009.

A few years back, I was studying in a college with B. She only hangs out with girls and is an outgoing person. Everyone called her B but she was not bothered as she was very smart.

We didn’t mix much, just nodding our heads when we bumped into each other on campus. After our college days, we parted and went different ways. With my exam results I couldn’t get a very decent job so I decided to become a computer salesman. One day I walked into a big firm to sell my stuff, and there was B holding a big post. She recognised me straight away and asked me out for a drink at night. I met up with her and she offered me a job – to be her “wife” and take care of things at home! In case it’s not clear, I am a guy.

B offered me a four-figure salary, free accommodation, a car and other perks. I asked her why, and she said she dislikes men, but she had to be married (and stay married) to get her inheritance. B said I fit the bill because I look kinda girlish (I am slim, tall and only slightly muscular) and that’s precisely what she likes.

After a few meetings with B, we settled on the payment, and she gave me an advance on that four-figure salary. Later, we got ourselves registered so that B could get her inheritance money credited into her account every month. Initially, I didn’t sleep with B because she would always be sleeping with her girlfriends in the master bedroom.

Everything was going fine for one year. Then B told me that her girlfriends didn’t like men in the house, and so B asked me to become a “she-male”. After some thought, I agreed and started wearing women’s clothes. After taking hormone pills for some time, I now even have size 32 breasts.

With my tall, slim frame, I really look feminine and very beautiful. No one will guess I am a man. Now I sleep with B in the room and with her girlfriends. A few years have passed. B and I have a wonderful relationship and we don’t have children. We are very well off and my bank balance is fat because I dont spend money at all. Meanwhile, B just banks money into my account.

The problem now is that B wants me to have a sex change operation. B says she will pay for it as she has fallen in love with me. I do not want to do that. I love the way I am now. But I also love B very much. I just don’t know if what I am doing is right or wrong and I don’t know where this relationship is headed. Will it end one day like a contract? Should I go for the sex change operation? Please advice, Thelma. I really don’t know what to do.

Lost in the World of Bi

And here is the reply,

If your story is for real, then you are living a bad movie script. And perhaps the end will be as you see it. You’re a man trapped in a woman’s body with no future and no love. You started out with greed. B offered you easy money and you succumbed. Then you allowed yourself to be lured into her kinky lifestyle. You seemed to have enjoyed it and you even admired your new, feminine beautiful form. But B’s request that you actually undergo a sex change rings alarm bells.

You suddenly feel insecure about your future because there will be no turning back. If your partner wishes to dump you, what will happen to you? You don’t really want to be a woman. Living a decadent, hedonistic lifestyle is good for only a short time. Eventually, you need to face life’s realities and make a choice. B married you for her own reasons. It was a contractual relationship even though she believes she is now in love with you. But this love comes with yet another condition. You need to change your body to suit her needs.

This woman bought your soul and now she wants your body. Are you prepared to sell out your life? Or do you have the guts to leave and be your own person again? Greed in its various forms can turn vile and vicious. You should know B well enough. Does she understand and respect love?

Do you trust a future with her? If you have doubts and fears, then take heed. You have the most to lose in this relationship.

So, what say you?

After reading this, the only thing that come into my mind is as the picture below,

Love = Happyness? ♥♥♥

2009-02-03T00:10:00.002+08:00

2 days ago, my buddy and I was having a discussion about the post I made last night which is,

1. Love can't be force. No matter what you do, things will never change

OR

2. If you showed enough sincerity, have enough faith, you "might" be able to change the fate.

As usual, I do most of the talking part as this buddy of mine is a quiet type of guy which is not so good with words but that night, he has said something that makes me think. It is something that everyone knows about it but not everybody realize about it.

He said it with his soft and slow tone,

Joey, in the end of the day, you just want the person you love to be happy right?

I kept quiet for a moment before i responded to him with a laugher,

Hahah, yeap. I guess thats all that matter. Life is short.
That short huh? :) ♥

Love doesn't make the world go round, Love is what make the ride worthwhile ♥

If you are unable to "receive", learn the art of "giving" and you'll find the "happyness" in it - Joey Tong, February 2, 2009

At least I've tried ♥♥♥

2009-02-02T00:12:00.007+08:00

This post is like the sequel post for yesterday,

I am sure a lot of people would say,

Joey, it is easier to say than done.
Joey, it is easy for you to say.
Joey, the girl don't like me. How?
Joey, this ... and Joey, that.

First and foremost, nobody said it is gonna be easy right?

Let me share with you what I've did for the girl that I currently fall head over heels :)

I've met her in an event on Dec 10, 2008. It wasn't love at first sight, when I first saw her, I thought that she is a very cute looking girl and her smile is one of the prettiest smile I've seen my whole life.

I then got to know more about her through MSN Chat. She is no doubt a very nice girl that her life was ruined by a bad relationship and thought she will never love again.

The 2nd time I met her was on 18 dec 2008, We catched a movie about the forbidden love between a vampire and human, The Twilight. During the show, I took a quick look at her a few times during the movie. Her smile would definitely melt any guys who looks at it. It is so sad that such an angel like her is afraid with this beautiful thing called love.

After the movie, I realized I just could not take my mind off of her. I sms-ed and called her but the respond weren't good. So, I thought she needed some space in her life and don't wish anyone to come near her broken heart. Therefore, I've decided to give her a christmas present (as it is just around the corner)

I bought a snow globe, I bought an x'mas greeting cards, some A4 colored papers and other stationary needed for the gift I thought that it would show my sincerity. I drafted what I am gonna do and thanks to my smart idea, I end up spending 5 hrs of my life working on the customized greeting card. Anyway, i guess the 5 hrs are all worth it, at least i know that I've spent this 5 hrs doing something I've never did before to someone I had a hard crush on.

This is the quick look of my 5 hrs hardwork :P
(Click on the image for a larger version)

I gave her the gift on christmas as planned but I guess things doesn't goes as what I plan. Instead of getting a better treatment from her, I think the whole thing backfired backed at me. She treated me even colder. Well, I can't blame her. At least she is trying to be nice by rejecting me indrectly.

I tried talking to her on MSN,
I tried sms-ing her but there isn't any reply.

Jan 30, 2009 is the day I sent her my last SMS asking her if I could be her date for valentine day and she replied my that specific sms today (Feb 1, 2009) saying that she has a plan on v-day :(

Many of my friends are asking me to give up as they said "feeling can't be force, if she doesn't have a feeling for you, no matter what you did, she will never feel the same".

BUT what about those who really have fate and hopes that she/he will feel the same way one day?

Those that cross the sea and walk across the fire for the love that they dreamt for?

Those that they believed in it so much, they waited for 7 years to have them accepting them into their life? Was it miracles? Was it all because of hardwork? I guess nobody know except the god almighty :)

So, what do you believe?

1. Love can't be force. No matter what you do, things will never change

OR

2. If you showed enough sincerity, have enough faith, you'll be able to change the fate.

My answer for it is, I believe that if we put enough hardwork + spent enough time to show my sincerity. I "STILL" stand a chance to bring the fate on my side. Well, if things doesn't work out, I still get to say "At least, I've tried my best" :)

Words of the Day

For every failure, there's an alternative course of action.
You just have to find it.
When you come to a roadblock, take a detour.

Mary Kay Ash

I've written a lot for today. So, I will just end this post with this famous question that my friends always ask me, "Joey, what is love ?"

Look into the video below to find out my answer.

So, if you have the same philosophy as me that LOVE is LIFE. Just work for the LOVE you believe coz what is LIFE without LOVE aight? ♥ :)

Create your own fate ♥♥♥

2009-02-01T00:10:00.006+08:00

My 1st post on February 09, the month of Valentine Day and Eros the Cupid have to work extra hard to fill the environment with LOVE :)

This post is specially dedicated for all the singles out there. I see lots of singles out there waiting for the cupid / god to arrange the fate so they could meet someone that is made for them ....

AND

sometimes when they met the one made for them, they got chicken out and give themself an excuse saying that if she is mine, she will be mine someday

giving themself an excuse like I am not good with girl, I don't know how to talk to girl, I am afraid to make new friend

AND

worst of all, some even blame it on the horoscope. Example is the cancerian that say themself is the family type of people. Therefore, they can't really socialize and like to stay home.

BUT

Hey, wake up. Fates won't fall down from the sky, miracle don't just happen. So, if you really want to look for a partner, staying home, hiding in the room and facing the monitor ain't the solution. What do you expect?

Expecting your hero to crawl out from your laptop?

Expecting your partner to crawl out from your laptop?

Come on, its your life. Do something for your life and start loving yourself by doing the right thing will you?

Quote of the Day

I have found in life that if you want a miracle you first need to do whatever it is you can do - if that's to plant, then plant; if it is to read, then read; if it is to change, then change; if it is to study, then study; if it is to work, then work; whatever you have to do. And then you will be well on your way of doing the labor that works miracles. Jim Rohn.

Finally, I shall end this post with a 1 of my favourite comic strip that I've saved it from a forwarded mail godzillion years ago. May you find your date for this valentine day, and may the date be the love are you seek for.

Adios and take care :)

1 + 1 is 11 :) ♥

2009-01-28T14:53:00.005+08:00

1 + 1 = 11 :) ♥

My 11th post in Ahboochak's BLOG. Today's post is about calculation and numbers. Its the 4th day of CNY and I shall now talk about 1 of the event that every chinese is looking forward to in every chinese new year (other than angpows) which is GAMBLING !!! For us chinese, CNY ain't complete without gambling :D

We play card games like blackjack, chor-dai-dee (i don't know what is it called, can someone enlighten me?) etc.

And 1 of the chinese favourite is MAHJONG :D Mahjong is a game for 4 players that originated in China. It involves skill, strategy and calculation.

Above pic taken from alibaba.com.

For those who want to read up about mahjong, can proceed to HERE.

I am a very noob in mahjong, only played it less than 10 times and I find the term kinda funny.

3 tiles same flowers are called as PONG

Example:

Then 4 tiles same flowers are called as KONG

Example:

The tiles pictures are taken from wikipedia.

I seriously don't understand why must they called it PONG and KONG. Can't they just called it "3 of a kind" or "4 of a kind" ? PONG and KONG reminds me so much of PING PONG and KANG KUNG. After hearing so much of it, it start reminding me of POH KONG ... -__-'

And finally, what the spoon in the world is zhi mor (self touch) ?

I hope it is not something that I have in mind .... you know ....

Anyway, this is Devina's answer to my question ... *sweat* (please click on the pic to enlarge it)

Happy 10 ♥♥♥

2009-01-28T01:00:00.000+08:00

I've made my CNY wish on CNY's eve,
I've talked a bit about angpau on the 1st day of CNY,
And I've touched about family reunion on the 2nd day.

So, I will touch about "Happyness" in this post. What is Chinese New Year without Happyness aight? ^_^

After posting up the video yesterday, it has made me realized that there is a group of people that don't watch TV. Hence, I've decided to put Astro Chinese New Year 2009 Song: Fa Da Chai in this post.

And what is Chinese New Year without firework aight? So, here you go !!! :D

Finally, for those who is looking forward to lead a happier life this year. I've got some a reminder from Barbara on 10 ways to live a happy life.

No. 1: Accept what is
The number 1 cause of suffering and unhappiness is wanting life to be something it’s not.

No. 2: Want what you have
The number 2 cause of suffering and unhappiness is wanting what you don’t have.

No. 3: Be honest with yourself
The number 3 cause of suffering and unhappiness is not communicating honestly with yourself.

No. 4: Investigate your stories
The number 4 cause of suffering and unhappiness are the scary stories you tell yourself about life and the world.

No. 5: Mind your own business
The number 5 cause of suffering and unhappiness is minding other people’s business.

No. 6: Follow your passion and accept the consequences
The number 6 cause of suffering and unhappiness is not doing what you want because you think people will disapprove

No. 7: Do the right thing and accept the consequences
The number 7 cause of suffering and unhappiness is not doing the right thing because you’re afraid of the consequences.

No. 8: Deal with what is in front of you and forget the rest
The number 8 cause of suffering and unhappiness is shadowboxing with illusions instead of dealing with the reality in front of you.

No. 9: Know what is what
The number 9 cause of suffering and unhappiness is wanting absolute satisfaction from relative experiences.

No. 10: Learn to see beyond impermanence
The number 10 cause of suffering and unhappiness is believing we become nothing.

Finally, again ... I would like to wish all my readers a VERY HAPPY Chinese New Year. May the year leads you to the path of Good Fortune, Health and Happyness ♥

LOVe Potion No. 9 ♥♥♥

Hows your reunion dinner? Was it great? Mine was awesome !!! Its awesome not because of the food but it was because all the family members are together, sitting on the same table and spending time together. I guess this is CNY reunion dinner main objective :D

Have you watched Petronas' Chinese New Year 2009 advert? If not, here it goes ♥

I saw this advert when I visited Bulat / Estee's house for "pai lin". After the advert finished, she said "Joey, why the advert so sad 1? Its Chinese New Year, they are not suppose to make people feel sad. It is suppose to be something HAPPY".

After hearing that statement, it got me thinking for a few seconds.

I then answered her question by saying,

Well, the reason why they makes such advertisement was because people don't appreaciate what they have. They only learn how to appreciate it once they lost it.

Seriously, the truth is hurting. A lot of people tend to make mistake and not appreciating what they have until they lost it. Once they've lost it, they tend to feel regret of what happened. I've learnt this lesson the hard way myself.

I hate to admit this, but I think I am having a mind block now. A mind block of being afraid to lose something precious in my life due to my unappreciative attitude. Therefore, I've tried to appreciate what I have more than in the past.

I've known some people who never spend time with their love ones, even on this CNY. So, please take a short moment to think if what you are doing is right or wrong.

Life is SHORT. When its TOO LATE, Sorry is NOT enough.

Keep LOVe in Your heart. A life without it is like a sunless gardens where the flowers are dead. :)

Talking about awesome-ness, my eight post in Ahboochak BLOG falls on the 1st day of Chinese New Year. Hence, I would like to wish a Merry Chineze Niu Ear 2009 to everyone who is reading this :D

How is your 1st day of CNY doing? Manage to collect a lot of ang pau anot? I've receive 1 ang pau so far. So, if you received lotsa ang paus this yr, you know what to do la ha :D (for those who don't know, what i mean was to share some wif me :D)

For those who plan to go out today, I would like to inform you that there will be a solar eclipse that can be seen in Malaysia today, the phenomenon is expected to happen as early as 4.30 PM to 7 PM. :D

For those who don't know what is solar eclipse, please CLICK HERE to find out more about it.

For those who've watched HEROES would definitely know what I am talking about and for those who couldn't bother what it is, I have a screenshot taken from Australia Broadcasting Corporation (ABC).

For those who is interested to find out more, you can take a look at NASA website on the following address http://eclipse.gsfc.nasa.gov/SEgoogle/SEgoogle2001/SE2009Jan26Agoogle.html.

For those who passionate photographer, equip yourself with your favourite gadgets and give a best shot on this rare phenomenon.

AND for Chinese who believe in orthodox stuff, this phenomenon is said to be a sign of bad luck as the sun is covered by the moon on first day of Chinese New Year. If you are out and witness this phenomenon (changes from bright to dark), it would give you a bad luck too. So, you decide by yourself whether you want to witness this phenomenon or just hide in the house. If you really wish to find out more about this, please take a look at The STAR Mag - Page 25 - January 2009.

*** WARNING *** DO NOT VIEW SOLAR ECLIPSE WITH NAKED EYES (please read)

The most important thing to keep in mind when viewing the Sun, including during a partial eclipse, is to never look at the Sun directly without proper viewing glasses. Sunglasses do not work -- you will damage your eyes permanently if you try to watch the eclipse with regular sunglasses.

Find out more on how to view, photograph solar eclipse the right way at http://www.space.com/scienceastronomy/solarsystem/solar_eclipse_view.html and http://science.howstuffworks.com/solar-eclipse3.htm.

Thats it for today. Thank you for reading Ahboochak-dot-blogspot-dot-com :D

2009-01-24T01:40:00.016+08:00

Boo !!! :D Ha-Ha ... If you are reading this post, I want you to know that my Kluang Trip has been cancelled due to some unexpected incident.

Its saturday, Jan 24, 2009 !!! 2 More Days and it is time for all the chinese to celebrate a very merry new year :D Kong-Xi Fatt Chai Ang Pau Gibme ^o^

As i said on the earlier post, 2008 is a great year for me. There is a lot of memorable days in 2008 for me.

One of it is 10th December 2008.

I've got 3 events to attend that night and I can only make it to 2 of the events.

I will start of with an event that I couldn't make it, the event was Space Chimps Movie Premiere in Pavilion, KL. I've got 6 tickets for that and since I've a clash in events, I've given the tickets to my friends :)

I've attended Hannah Tan's Farewell Party in SOMO, Mount Kiara that night. It was a great event that I will have to write about it in a specially dedicated post on my blog in the near future :)

After Hannah Tan's farewell, I headed to Amber Chia's Birthday Party at Red Square, KL. Again, I'll have to write about this separately. Sorry ya? Don't bite me :P

The other day to remember on 2008 is definitely my BIRTHDAY celebrations !!! I've sorta celebrated my birthday 4 times this year :D

1st celebration (10 July 2008 night) was with Ms. Bulat a.k.a Estee at my house. Just the 2 of us with a small cupcake and 26 pcs of tiny candles .... romantik kan? :P

2nd celebration (11 July 2008 night - the actual date) was with the Kokorobox.Net gang in 1 of the Cafe in Seksyen 17. Thank you so much to bebee for organizing this party and all kokorians who've made this party possible.

3rd Celebration (12 July 2008 night) was with Shazzy's and gang at Carls Jr, One Utama then McDonald, Centrepoint. It was a small celebration but it is a memorable one. Thank you to Shazzy for organizing the whole thing :)

4th Celebration (26 July 2008 night) was with Neshimaru and her buddies at Pei Yong's house. Thank you Nesh for inviting me as a part of the pot luck cum birthday party.

Woah, after writing until here only I realized I've got so many memorable days in 2008 and most of it have to be elaborated in specialially dedicated post.

I'll tell you what? I will make a summary for all of it in few parts first. Then I will blog about each of it whenever the time allow k? Sorry oh ... Jangan marah at me k? I takut.

Chill ... chill ... mari minum air and Merry Chinese New Year in advance to all of you ♥

5th post on TGIF ♥♥♥

2009-01-23T12:45:00.006+08:00

T.G.I.F = Thank God Its Friday !!! Everybody just loves friday isn't it? Its the last day of work for my of us and coincidently my 5th post is made on friday (sorta intentionally). Reason was because, I've watched 3 movies since last friday until today and I wanted to give my readers that plan to catch a movie this weekend some tips of which movie they should choose.

The first movie that I am gonna talk about is BEDTIME STORIES.

Typical fantasy family comedy kinda show from Adam Sandler with a little chick flick element. The movie is only 99 minutes. For those who is looking for a good laugh, I would recommend you to catch this show. Else, you can go for a less funny but almost the same type of movie, you can go for InkHeart.

InkHeart is another movie starred by Brendan Fraser. If you likes his movie, I would like to ask you to give this movie a try. It reminded me a about his Mummy's Series with less adventure but more fantasy element. The show is 125 mins long, catch it if you are looking for a fantasy + family + action kinda show.

The last movie that I am gonna talk about is Underworld 3: The Rise of Lycans. Its the 3rd movie from the Underworld series. This time, the movie is about flash back on the reborn of new Lycans (werewolves) and forbidden love between the vampire & werewolves. I would recommend this movie to those who loves action movie with lotsa bloods.

Summary

Bedtime Stories - B Grade Comedy

Best if you are watching it with your kids or bunch of friends.

InkHeart - B+ Grade Fantasy

Recommended for those who are watching with kids, friends, GF or a date.

Underworld - Rise of the Lycans - D Grade Action Movie

Watch it only if you are action movie freak or Underworld Fan (as I personally think this movie's storyline and plot are kinda boring. Other than the action, its nothing much). FYI, There is an 18SX scene in the movie which is definitely censored in Malaysia.

I am heading down to Kluang, Johor tonight and will be back in PJ tomorrow. WHY am I going to Kluang? Find out about it this coming sunday or monday. ♥

Finally, adios and enjoy your weekend guys :)

I L♥Ve YOU

Chak chak chak ... cha-cha-cha CHAK !!! Baby language I am using :D

I think 2007 and 2008 is 2 years that I've learn the most in my whole life, 2008 especially. I've experienced a lot of things, attended lotsa events, met a lot of new interesting people and friends. I personally changed a lot within this 2 years to. I guess this is what they said as - every single single day of our life is like a blank page in our diary, every person we meet, every event we participate in is a lively essay.

I plan to blog about every events that happen in my daily life, especially in 2008. I've also plan to write about friends & people who've colored up my life, you guys are such a wonderful people that each time i thought about my last day on earth freaked me out terribly. I pray each day that I will live long enough to show how much I care and appreciated all the friendship that is given to me.

Word of wisdoms for 22/1/2009 - The journey of a thousand miles begins with one first step :)

2nd post - WHY did I blog? ♥♥♥

2009-01-21T16:04:00.011+08:00

Peek-ah-BOO !!! (that is how you say Ah-boo-chak in western way, thanks to lovely zoe for the reminder about the existance of this term)

I've known about blog since before the blog frenzy even started. The first time I heard about blogging was like, almost 5 years ago I assume?

So, what trigger me start my own blog now you may ask?

1. TIME Factor

Well, the main reason that I didn't blog in the past was because I am too busy with my daily activities (such as work & hanging out with friends) and also managing my forum - www.kokorobox.net. Hence, I can't really find a time to blog.

Anyhow, I've quitted my job as a Field Service Executive / Reseller Assistant in Cal-Lab (www.cal-lab.com) and currently self-employed. Therefore, I am able to squeeze some time to blog about 3 most magical elements in my life ( Love ♥ Friendship ♥ Memories )

I will start blogging more about these magical elements starting February 2009 and how it effect my daily life, my personality and also my character.

2. PRIVACY Factor

I am always the private type of person and I hate the feeling of being stalked :P

Its 2009, my mind told me to make something different. So, I am now giving all those who want to stalk me a chance to do so !!!

You can take a look at some of the things I've did on 2008 at my one of my bestest buddy blog at
http://shazfx.blogspot.com/ OR at http://shaz.blog.xfresh.com/

I am gonna try my best to blog everyday. So, for those who really want to stalk. Make sure you read-up my ahboochak blog daily ya? ;)

Ahboochak Blog's Menu for Jan 2009 will mostly feature about my life in my primary school and secondary school in Kelantan. I will post up some pictures and stories that even my bestest buddies never heard about it before.

Picture taken last Friday, 16/1/2009 at a park in Tmn Tun.
Picture courtesy to my cutest photographer and also the leader / founder for the BoDo-ism Gang - Ms Bulat a.k.a Estee

Thank you for viewing. Adios and Have a GREAT DAY ~!

With Love,
Joey a.k.a Vinspire a.k.a Ahboochak ♥

First post ♥♥♥

Hola people,

Finally, I've jumped into the blogosphere bandwagon :)

Okie, a little introduction for those who don't know me, don't know much about me and also for those who know me :D

I am Joey Tong, also known as Vinspire and just because I can't have Vinspire.blogspot.com as my blog URL, I have to settle down with Ahboochak.blogspot.com :D !!!

I am born on 11th July 1982. So, that makes me 27 yrs old this coming July 11, 2009. Oh boy, I am more than 26 yrs old item now ^o^

Here is a pic of me when I am baby. Cute leh? Say cute, or else i bite you one ark :p

Another picture of me (for those who don't believe that I am this cute) 8-)

Now who knows what is the meaning of Ahboochak?

1st guess,

2nd guess,

3rd guess,

Did you get it right?

Or did you get it wrong?

Anyway, I shall now explain the meaning of Ahboochak. I am sure most of you like babies aight? and for those who are born in the 80s, you should know about this simple trick to make babies smile / laugh where-by you close your face with both your hands and you say AH-BOO-CHAK and TA-DA !!! You show your face to the baby and miraculously, 8 out of 10 times, the baby smiles :D

Wee ... Nothing beat seeing a sweet smile, especially sweet fresh pure smiley from babies. It makes all the guys' heart goes warm and it melts all the girls' heart.

So, lets say ... AH-BOO-CHAK together with me YO !!! ^o^
