DMC Graduation 2009

I thanked my dad, my mum, my sis, my grandma, my cousins, my relatives...

As though I got the prestigious Golden Globe Award. But it’s just a diploma haha.

But most of all, I would like to thank my God, who has graciously carried me through. Couldn't have done it, without His might, His strength, and His wisdom which surpasses all human understandings. He has been there for me faithfully yesterday, today and forever. Knowing that He's in control was an ultimate serenity to my worries.

Million thanks to

The pillar of my strength, my parents. My ‘Personal Adviser’ dad who shares his wisdom and experience when I got blur with things. My ‘Problem Solver’ mum who patiently hears my moaning and helping me disentangle the messy problem. They are my refuge when tsunami, hits my life. Not forgetting, they are my financial consultants and ATM. ;P

My little sister who builds me up, by challenging me and breaking my heart with a list of my weaknesses. In rare cases, she says, “I’m cute or smart’, just to make me happy for those split seconds. She is my ‘Rescuer” when my hand phone credit runs low. Hehe free top-up. She entertains me with her craziness and being lame.

My maternal grandma who pampers me always, makes me experience the awesomeness being a kid again. Woo hoo!! Still remembered how she forces me to study. Then, my paternal grandma who can predict my problem just by seeing my face, no matter how I hide it which it’s freaky but amazing…

My uncles, aunts and cousins who has provided great insights to my studies and my future career prospect. They have taught me values of life that cannot be learnt between the four walls in class. Thanks for the inspiration.

My dedicated lecturers who has been guiding me to excel well academically and supporting me to pursue my dreams. My pastor who encourages us to put 110 % in everything we do.

Last but not least, my friends, for being together throughout my ups and downs. Really grateful that we have the privilege to cross each other path.

Rubbish Matters!

I was pondering about one thing..

Can't people keep their rubbish, doesn't matter tissue, sweet wrappings or plastic wrappers in their pockets for a time being to search for a dustbin and throw it in. Rather than dumping it into the drain or whatsoever place they find it convenient. =(

Ok.. You might find me naggy.

Well, just think of it, how the city is going to be clean, if there’s only 1 sweeper and 200 dumpers in the particular area. One thing that really annoys me is that when students, what I meant by ‘future degree holders’, effortlessly chuck cigarettes boxes into the drains like nobody business.

Come on guys! I know you people don’t recycle, but at least don’t plunk rubbish everywhere. Don’t wait for others to change, BE THE CHANGE instead.

My Escape to Vietnam

Well, it's my first trip to Vietnam. The trip has definitely widened my horizon about the lifestyles and the culture of the Vietnamese people. My desperate feet have finally step on a foreign land. The airport looks remarkably amazing in its modernist architecture. My cousins and I had a little confusion about the currency there; we had a stack of Dongs, Dollars and Ringgits in our wallets. One thing that petrifies me about Vietnam is its traffic. I noticed hundreds and hundreds of motorcycles budging on the road with no specific direction. Taxi drivers kept tooting their hone for non-stop. According to the tour guide, it’s their culture. A thought came to my mind. My legs will definitely freak out even before I accelerate.

Besides that, the food in Vietnam was a nightmare to me. I still remembered how I gulped down that horrible mint and the raw ‘tauges’. I can still imagine that green chlorophyll going down my throat. Really felt like a cow chewing on the grass. Reminds me how privileged I am to live in Malaysia, indulging in different kinds of food that has a mixture of spiciness, sweetness, and saltiness. To name a few dishes that is making me insane is my favourite pan-mee, roti canai, and nasi beriani with rendang.


The Cu Chi Tunnel was the place that I was looking forward. The tunnel was a shelter for the locals during the tragic Vietnam War that has killed countless people. It was quite creepy as the tunnel was so small, dark and it definitely stinks, not forgetting it’s terrible air radiation flow. We had to actually squat to make our way through the tunnel.

Another unforgettable experience was when Malaysia lost to Vietnam in the SEA Games football match. These patriotic Vietnamese citizens actually roamed the streets with their bikes to celebrate sweet victory over Malaysia. I actually thought it was Vietnam Independence Day. What a great experience to see them waving their flags with such high admiration, respect and love to their country. Unlike we Malaysians, we don't really care about our local football team until King Gopal and his team led us to triumph when they won the finals in SEA Games. Ask around the teens whom they worshipped. Answers were none than other, the glorious MU.

Last but not least, we managed to shop till we dropped. The scarfs were so cheap. I’m satisfied.

Hitting the BIG 2!

Just in a brink, I'm hitting the Big 2. Cant possibly imagine 2 decades of my life has just passed in a flash of lightning. Thinking deeply to my thoughts, I asked myself, Who is that girl I see staring straight at the mirror?" "Had I been the 'Caroline' that I always dreamt of?" or "Am I still the childlike girl trapped in a adult body, doing some soul searching?"

Dozen of questions of the future flooded my mind and blurs my vision. My little conscience said, "Take one step at a time! For today, celebrate your day being 20."

Why am I afraid of that two-digit? Bring it on, 20!!

Rain

It was 5 am this morning. I sensed a refreshing smell signaling rain is coming. I heard the frog is croaking in its deep voice. I felt a sudden coldness running through my feet followed by a gentle wind wafted my face. Oddly, I find myself quite awake this wee morning. I was in fact smiling to myself after I remembered that my little sister has school today. The temperature was just accurate for ‘habitation’. I snugged under my comforter to seek warmth and took a glimpse of my little sis with her grumpy face when her alarm clock rings.

How I love the rain.. I sat by the window and observed the dark clouds approaching, blanketing the majestic sun. It starts by drizzling gently and in a moment, it poured down to earth like waterfall as though Heaven has just opened its gates. The raindrops pattered against the floor, creating a harmonious echo. The smell of rain keeps me revitalized. Not forgetting, my faithful hot chocolate, Milo accompanied and kept me warm throughout the cold day. Plus, my favourite book is right in front with me.

Well, too bad it was just an imagination. I’m right here, in front of the computer working with the blare of the cranky car alarm deafening my ears due to lightning. Freezing to death with no hot chocolate but lots of work to be done.

Rain rain go away

Pray and believe.. and God will certainly make a way..
