Pa...

If I could write a story
It would be the greatest ever told
Of a kind and loving father
Who had a heart of gold

If could write a million pages
But still be unable to say,
just how Much I love and miss him
Every single day

I will remember all he taught me
I'm hurt but won't be sad
‘coz he'll send me down the answers
And he'll always be my APPA

New year...New Resolution

The new year is always considered to be a good time to reflect on how you are doing personally and professionally. It'll be a time to answer questions like 'did you accomplish the things you set out to do?" It is a time for looking back to the past, and also a time to look forward to the coming year. It's a time to reflect on the changes we want, or need, to have the motivation to move forward. Many of us choose to make a New Years resolution to improve something about ourselves after reflecting on the past year. For me personally...I'd go with the flow. I'll live one day at a time. Making plans may be beneficial yet we must be prepared to face the unexpected. I learnt this in my life. Life is an everyday education.Like Anatole France said "an education isn't how much you have committed to memory, or even how much you know. It's being able to differentiate between what you do know and what you don't. All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter another. So...all i ask now...is..

God, grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
the courage to change the things I can;
and the wisdom to know the difference.

Insight Japan...

i was in japan and it was my first trip there. i've never been there or had any intention. thanx to my public service department, i was able to go there for a course on leadership and learn about this assiduous nation.

My first encounter or knowledge about Japanese was when i was a small girl. Even then...i barely know who they are but i really loved watching 'Oshin". Oshin is a Japanese serial television drama that follows the life of Shin Tanokura during the Meiji period up to the early 1980s. Shin was called "Oshin", which is Japanese archaic cognomen. Oshin, the heroine, serves as a symbolic figure for perseverance, showing that a person should never give up - even in the most trying times.

Besides Oshin, i was also a fan of other japanese shows like "Shogun", "Maero Attack", "kesatria Baja Hitam" and many more. Don't blame me...for i was a child addicted to tv...hehehehe

As soon as i entered my primary & secondary...i learnt how 'creatively' (or is it cunningly?) Japanese masuk Malaya thru Kota Bharu! All the torture warga Malaya went thru semasa penjajahan Jepun. Hmmm...sampai lah kita dijajah semula oleh British.

Being in Japan...saya tengok bagaimana Jepun bangkit selepas peristiwa hitam pengeboman Hiroshima dan Nagasaki. Mereka hilang segala galanya tetapi berbekalkan kecekalan dan sikap tidak berputus asa, mereka telah berjaya bangkit semula sebagai kuasa ekonomi terulung. Saya dapat memahami motif Tun Mahathir memperkenalkan Dasar Pandang Ke Timur. Namun ...kelebihan Jepun terletak pada budaya serta masyarakat homegenusnya. Amat berbeza dengan budaya Malaysia. Kita boleh belajar dan mengaplikasikan apa yang baik mengikut acuan masyarakat kita...

Beyonce - If I Were a Boy


If I were a boy
Even just for a day
I’d roll outta bed in the morning
And throw on what I wanted then go
Drink beer with the guys
And chase after girls
I’d kick it with who I wanted
And I’d never get confronted for it.
Cause they’d stick up for me.

[Chorus]
If I were a boy
I think I could understand
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I’d be a better man.
I’d listen to her
Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
Cause he’s taken you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed

[Verse]
If I were a boy
I would turn off my phone
Tell everyone it’s broken
So they’d think that I was sleepin’ alone
I’d put myself first
And make the rules as I go
Cause I know that she’d be faithful
Waitin’ for me to come home (to come home)

[Chorus]
If I were a boy
I think I could understand
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I’d be a better man.
I’d listen to her
Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted (wanted)
Cause he’s taken you for granted (granted)
And everything you had got destroyed

[Vamp1]
It’s a little too late for you to come back
Say its just a mistake
Think I’d forgive you like that
If you thought I would wait for you
You thought wrong

[Male]
You know when you act like that
I don’t think you realize how it makes me look
or feel

[Beyonce]
Act like what
Why are you so jealous
It’s not like i’m sleeping with the guy

[Male]
What

[Beyonce]
What

[Male]
I said yo
Why are you so jealous
It aint like I’m sleepin with the girl
[Vamp2]
But you’re just a boy
You don’t understand
Yeah you don’t understand
How it feels to love a girl someday
You wish you were a better man
You don’t listen to her
You don’t care how it hurts
Until you lose the one you wanted
Cause you’ve taken her for granted
And everything you have got destroyed
But you’re just a boy

i seek for a samurai...

They say Japan was made by a sword. They say the old gods dipped a coral blade into the ocean, and when they pulled it out four perfect drops fell back into the sea, and those drops became the islands of Japan. I say, Japan was made by a handful of brave men. Warriors, willing to give their lives for what seems to have become a forgotten word: honor.


Japanese...they are an intriguing people. From the moment they wake they devote themselves to the perfection of whatever they pursue. I have never seem such discipline. I am surprised to learn that the word Samurai means, 'to serve'.


What does it mean to be Samurai? To devote yourself utterly to a set of moral principles. To seek a stillness of your mind. And to master the way of the sword.


And so the days of the Samurai had ended. Nations, like men, it is sometimes said, have their own destiny.


Being here...there is some comfort such as the emptyness of the sea. No past, no future. We seek small measure of peace, and only a few of us ever find.I am confronted by the hard truth. The irony in my life was set by me. Everyone is polite. They smile and bow. But beneath their courtesy, i detect a deep reservoir of feeling. They devote in perfection in everything, such discipline.

I'm amazed

Daughtry - What About Now

My current fav track...by C.D
Shadows fill an empty heart
As love is fading,
From all the things that we are
But are not saying.
Can we see beyond the scars
And make it to the dawn?

Change the colors of the sky.
And open up to
The ways you made me feel alive,
The ways I loved you.
For all the things that never died,
To make it through the night,
Love will find you.

What about now?
What about today?
What if you’re making me all that I was meant to be?
What if our love never went away?
What if it’s lost behind words we could never find?
Baby, before it’s too late,

What about now?
The sun is breaking in your eyes

To start a new day.
This broken heart can still survive
With a touch of your grace.


Shadows fade into the light.
I am by your side,
Where love will find you.
Now that we’re here,
Now that we’ve come this far,
Just hold on.
There is nothing to fear,
For I am right beside you.
For all my life,I am yours.

What about now?
What about today?
What if you’re making me all that I was meant to be?
What if our love never went away?
What if it’s lost behind words we could never find?
Baby, before it’s too late...

What about now?

"Farewell! thou art too dear for my possessing"

The hardest part of any friendship is when it is time to say goodbye. As much as we might like things to stay the same, change is an inevitable part of life. There is a secret that only real friends know and it is this. All the mountains and valleys in the world cannot separate friends whose hearts are as one.

The hardest part of any friendship is when it is time to say goodbye,
and even though I wished I could make you stay,
I know I gotta let you spread your wings and fly.

For life is a journey that needs to be travelled
and I am certain you'd make it through,
I just want you to know and never forget
that I will surely miss you.

So follow your heart and never give up,
as dreams and wishes do come true,
for I know that someday we'll meet again,
so never forget I will be praying for you.

Bye.... D :(

Do You Love Your Job?

Do you love coming to work on Mondays or do you look forward to Fridays ? Well...it can all sum up to one thing...which is how much you love your job..

Here's some tips...How To Love Your Job...

step 01

Find ways of career growth, learning and development. Think of ways you can get a promotion in order to grow within the company. Also ask yourself how you can learn new skills that can contribute to the job you have.

step 02

Find excitement and challenge in what you do. Try to find a new twist on what you do know and/or reinvent yourself. Sometime re-decorating your workspace is all you need

step 03

Find great people. Get to know your colleagues and boss better. Better company makes for a happier work place. If your colleagues or boss do not seem like the type of people you want to be with, get to know your clients. Sometime great clients are reason enough to love your job.

step 04

Find out what makes your boss a good boss. There is a reason why your boss is there in the first place, and you can learn a lot from your boss. If you don’t like what you see, then be your own boss within the company by taking the initiative to start new projects and going above and beyond your duties.

step 05

Have fun on the job, but don’t forget you are there to work.

the L word...

~Love is not about becoming somebody else's perfect person,
it's about finding someone who helps you becoming the best person you can be~

Life is simple, its just not easy...

I have learned to seek my happiness by limiting my desires,
rather than attempting to satisfy them

Take a bow...

The flowers are all faded now
Along with your letters
They will never see the light of day
Cause I'll never take them out
and there's no turning back
it's for the better baby
I deserve more than empty words and promises
I believed every thing you said
And I gave you the best I had

So take a bow
Cause you've taken everything else
You played the part and like a star
you played it so well
Take a bow
Cause this scene is coming to an end
I gave you love
All you gave me was pretend
So Now
Take a bow

The future's about to change
Before you know it the curtain closes
Take a look around
There's no one in the crowd
I'm throwing away the pain
And you should know that your performance
It made me stronger now

Well it must have been sleight hand
Cause I still can't understand
how I could never see
Just what a fool believed
but the lies they start to show
tell me how it feels to know right now
that I wont be around
so baby
before I put you out

~Leona Lewis~
