Life is NO Fairy Tale

Cinderella, all-time fave fairy tale

I used to believe in fairy tales and a happy ending.

When I thought my life is nearly perfect at 24 (I got a better job, stayed with my BFF, had a great life plan, and got my first car), suddenly everything went sour.

Yeah, life is not always beautiful...

My parents separated (I refused to use the "D" word, coz it sounds too bad for me. Up until now only few closest friends know about it, and yes, I'm good at pretending like nothing happened).

While my BFF who I adore so much had to leave for a position at polytechnic in our hometown.

It was a terrible time for me and I cried most of the time when I'm alone.

Though I was really sad for her that she had to give up her life here, I understand that we will not

achieve real happiness without our parents' blessings.

And that's what she did, putting the happiness of her parents first than her own.

Deep inside I am so proud with her and I know, one day happiness will eventually come for her.

I don't believe in fairy tales anymore, and I know I should stop believing long time ago.

But a girl always has a dream and I still love them.

2010: the year of joy, tears and shattered dreams had passed.Now I wish for a happier 2011.

Thank you God for giving me this special someone. I am deeply grateful.

We watched this new version of Rapunzel from Disney & we totally love it! Instead of Prince Charming, Rapunzel's love interest is a thief! So real, lol.

The long lost passion

Something my mum talk about last weekend made me realized something. My passion for cooking. Yes, I am a culinarian for years now, engage with cooking almost every single day, but the fire, my once fiery passion in cooking is not there. It's like, I'm just doing it for the sake of my job and for the benefits of my students. God, where is 'that love' that buried deep in myself since I was just a little girl? It almost made me cry when my mum said that she couldn't forget the deliciousness of 'kueh pau' that I made when I was just in primary school. Among so many things that I cooked for my family, that was one small insignificant things that she can't forget. I am so touched at heart. She said that what was so special about it is the filling. The filling that I accidentally invented out of boredom after coming back from school. I remember that my dad didn't believed I made it myself that he kept asking where I bought it from. Maybe becau...

Bond, James Bond

Still remember your very first introduction to the suave British's secret service agent, 007? I do. It was Dr. No, the very first Bond film created based on the novel by Ian Fleming. James Bond movies are something that I could cherish as wonderful childhood memories. Back in those days, movies and tv shows had great impact in our lives, particularly to me and my older brother. We were so fascinated with movies, which I think we both still do. We literally growing up with the quotes, the actions, and the experience. I could still recalled it in my head, the first time I watch Sean Connery as James Bond and the beautiful Bond girl, Ursula Andress. "Bond, James Bond" was one of our favourite play along Bond's quote. Every kid wants to be agent 007, so they carry along a toy gun, act like Bond, and speak up the famous line. Now Bond is 50 years, and in conjunction with the celebration, the 23rd installment of the franchise, SKYFALL is released. We are lucky to be a...
