The Unforeseen

It was dinner time when I reached home, after being away for 3 days programme to Pangkor for work.
No doubt I was tired; physically drained out and probably mentally as well...with all the constant sms' regarding of uni assignments.

My mum came out and I noticed my dad hanging this average sized piece of red cloth over the top of our main gate upon the entrance to the living room. I thought it was for decorative or religious purposes.

She told me that grandma passed away.

It is for religious purpose after all, as my family came back from the 2 days of funeral process and that red-cloth-hanging was necessary.
It happened the very same day I left for Pangkor. Probably my family was like 2 hours late for saying goodbye as they were already on the way there. No one could really tell when time's up.
I didn't know bout it as mum didn't want me to get worried or distracted while I'm working.

To be honest, I couldn't feel the sadness...due to the scarce relationship bond we had with grandma. Being in town, Chinese New Year was the only occasion which brought us back together and redefine the meaning of 'family' again.

I felt more for my dad as he was more emotionally affected.

As one of the many grandsons, I received a gold ring as well. Probably it's a tradition and she already prepared it years and years ago when she was able.

I'm sorry for not being able to say goodbye to you even after you're gone.
But I'm certainly glad that you went off peacefully without much pain and suffering. 99 years of age is certainly something you should be proud of.

All this while, I believe the age cycle will just reverse as people are getting older. Like little kids, all that remain in our older folks will be just memories...without any worries. They might not remember our names,who we are, or even themselves, but all that matters is that they are living in a carefree world and hold on to the sweet memories to the final moment.

The very least I could do is to dedicate this photo to you. It's one of my best piece and it's probably taken around the same time you took off.



Goodbye grandma, we'll miss you and Chinese New Year will never be the same again without you. Have a great journey k?

Pangkor Island

About 6 hours ago since I came back from Pulau Pangkor for a programme. I can't detailed out much on the place itself although I would have said that the Pangkor Island Beach Resort is an ideal getaway location (not in a fugitive way).

It's not so much on the whole Pangkor but more on the resort itself which made it perfect as a holiday destination. Forget shopping for sotongs or keychains, it's a place for relaxation.








































and this shall be my desktop wallpaper for the week/month :)

Photography Assignment

Yes, I major in Economics. But that doesn't stop me from taking fun electives like this one :)

Requirements for the 60% course assignment:

• 1 Shot of yourself (in this case, myself) - I'll just use my facebook pic

• 20 selected pics (supposely as your best 20 pics) - I only have 20 'good' shots, non i considered it to be the 'best'

• A slideshow - Right belowwwww

• A printed 12R pic of anything - I'll post it later on

• A printed 12R of the same pic (refer right above) and be photoshopped/scribbled/cut/doodled/stepped/anything into an advertisement piece.

So here's the slideshow which I've done from the photoshoot in Taman Tasik Perdana.

It's a little corny and lame. But heck, as long i'm showcasing my pics in a nice moving order right?




P/s: I would like to thank Evelyn Loh for suggestion of the jiwang song. Actually she would like me to thank her in this post for NOT suggesting the song but sending me the song instead.

Official Re-Opening

It's been too long since I last procrastinated to change the look of my blog.
I always wanted to settle for something simpler yet more functional.

I would like to thank the creation of cyberspace, the 2 weeks Raya holiday given by UKM, the dude who created this template, me, myself and I.

*cuts ribbon*

As a note, please IGNORE the 5 posts before this. I know it's a little messy and unorganised the moment you look at the past posts. But its all for the sake of creating and functioning the menu bar/link bar (yes! finally I know what is it called!) on top. You know, just below the header pic. Yes, I took that pic in case you're wondering. Even if you're not, I'm still gonna tell you. It's not that fun to squat beside a pond for 15 minutes.

So officially all posts will begin from this point onwards.
Thanks and enjoy your visit...reading...whatsoever :)
