July 2011

a very quick update on my current status...

life is just getting more and more challenging.. but pls dont get me wrong.. i really enjoy those challenges.. we will only grow stronger and stronger.. it's really like playing games.. after you kill a boss, we just get level up!! that's life..

work:
entering 5months with Nestle. kind of adjusted to the new life, new work, new environment. very different from my previous technical life.. here the new job is very much about people. working with all kinds of people. the positive and also the negative people. i guess this is just part of business world la. work is very tough and at a very fast phase. deadline after deadline everyday.. but i'm enjoying my work..

life:
as a father of two is not easy to be honest. but is also very rewarding at times when i look at my kids. they are really my pride and joy. now i know why there is a brand called Pride & Joy.. haha.. a very simple smile from my princess or a hug from my prince.. i tell you... no word can describe my feeling.. all the worries, all the tiredness, just go away.

now just need to touch up my time spend with the most important person in my life.. my wife.. i felt like we both have been working very hard for the kids.. and now seems like we have even less time for one another. we both also felt the same thing. Marriage take effort.. just like any other relationship. just have to keep reminding myself that my priority in my life is still my bestest friend.. my wife..

Music:
have been listening to Switchfoot a lot lately.. the more i listen, the better the whole Album seems to get. not like those 1 hit wonder la.. Hello Hurricane!! check it out..



today out of a sudden this band just came to me.. the Goo Goo Dolls. almost forgotten.. but they are still good. the music will just bring back memories. i am not sure about you, but music can really take us back to the younger years.. i wonder what else can do that?? may be in our dream sometimes.. (now seldom got dream liaw la.. imagine have to wake up every few hours.. dream not not time to come out la.. hahaha..)




food:
this place i really need to promote! it's Porkie's BBQ at Jln Song..
the food that u have to try there is.. the BBQ spare ribs!! it's the so G.oo.D!!!! it's only RM26. CHEAP DEAL... HUGE Portion.. if not mistaken is 1kg per serving.. must share la ok?? hehe..
unless u r muslim, then i am so sorry.. or else.. i tell you... seriously tell you... go get yourself a spare ribs!! if not.. u will regret for the rest of your life.. hahahaha... (*ahem! yes.. i am serious..)

oh ya.. just 1 thing i have to warn you.. go for the food only ok?? just the food.. the service S.U.C.K.S! waiter and waitress memang tak boleh pakai!! just bare with them.. because of the sO... G.oo.D BBQ spare ribs... dun let them ruin ur day!!




i think i have leave you with good music, good food, good advice.. now when you enjoy those three.. u will have good life.. hahaha..



P/S: Wifey.. I know you come here once in a while.. let's go BBQ Porkies for the Spare Ribs ok??

Time...

after my favourite band beyond i seldom listen to cantonese song until i met this guy by the name of eason chan. not the best looking guy but his songs are good..

it's easy to find a good song from hong kong music nowadays because there are really not many good songs and good singers.. all are just flower pot. not really my cup of tea..

i just want to share the following song with you. u might already heard but no harm listen to it again right? since this is a great song. try to listen to the words.. i believe u will hear a different type of flavour.. (directly translate from chinese) hahaha...

have a great day~

過去十八歲　沒戴錶　不過有時間
夠我沒有後顧　野性貪玩

霎眼廿七歲　時日無多方不敢偷懶
宏願縱未了　奮鬥總不太晚

然後突然今秋
望望身邊　應該有　已盡有
我的美酒　跑車　相機　金錶　也講究
直到世間　個個也妒忌　仍不怎麼富有
用我尚有　換我沒有　其實已用盡所擁有

曾付出　幾多心跳
來換取一堆堆的發票
人值得　命中減少幾秒　多買一隻錶
秒速　捉得緊了
而皮膚竟偷偷鬆了
為何用到盡了　至知哪樣緊要

勞力是無止境
活著多好　不需要　靠物證
也不以高薪　高職　高級品　搏尊敬
就算搏到　伯爵那地位　和蕭邦的雋永
賣了任性　日拼夜拼　忘掉了為什麼高興

曾付出　幾多心跳
來換取一堆堆的發票
人值得　命中減少幾秒　多買一隻錶
秒速　捉得緊了
而皮膚竟偷偷鬆了
為何用到盡了　至知哪樣緊要

記住那關於光陰的教訓
回頭走天已暗
你獻出了十吋　時和分
可有換到十吋金

還剩低　幾多心跳
人面跟水晶錶面對照
連自己　亦都分析不了　得到多與少
也許　真的瘋了
那個倒影　多麼可笑
靈魂若變賣了　上鏈也沒心跳

銀或金　都不緊要
誰造機芯　一樣了
計劃了　照做了　得到了　時間卻太少

還剩低　幾多心跳
還在數　趕不及了
昂貴是這刻　我覺悟了
在時計裡　看破一生　渺渺

P/S: Time is really short.. Time do not wait for anyone.. Time is priceless.. 一寸光阴,一寸金;寸金难买寸光阴.

Jared Anderson - How He Loves

VERSE 1

He is jealous for me
Loves like a hurricane, I am a tree
Bending beneath the weight of His wind and mercy
When all of a sudden
I am unaware of these afflictions eclipsed by glory
I realize just how beautiful You are
And how great Your affections are for me

CHORUS

Oh, how He loves us so
Oh, how He loves us
How He loves us so
Oh, how He loves us so
Oh, how He loves us
How He loves us so

CHORUS

Yeah, He loves us
Oh, how He loves us
Oh, how He loves us
Oh, how He loves
Yeah, He loves us
Oh, how He loves us
Oh, how He loves us
Oh, how He loves

VERSE 2

We are His portion and He is our prize
Drawn to redemption by the grace in His eyes
If grace is an ocean, we're all sinking
So Heaven meets earth like a sloppy wet kiss
And my heart turns violently inside of my chest
I don't have time to maintain these regrets
When I think about the way that

What an Awesome Awesome Song..



P/S: Dear Lord, I want to feel Your heart beat.. I want to know You more and more.. Your Love is so so so great that when I think of it, it will just brings me to my knees...

Katy Perry - Firework

Great meaningful song.. Awesome MTV too.. Have a great day!!




P/S: Boom! Boom! Boom! Even brighter than the Moon! Moon! Moon!

Father & Son

Father & Son is a very special relationship. after becoming a father only i get to see and experience more of a role as a father.

now that i am both son and a father. this make me even more "special".

when i was just a son.. there are many things that my father did that i will never understand until the day i become father. suddenly everything just make sense. a father will do anything to make sure that the son has the best. a father will try all kinds of thing to make sure the son is happy. while the father is trying and doing, the son might not feel that and not appreciate at all. but that will not mater until the father see the final result... which is the smile on his son's face.

Son! Daddy will always be there for you..

Son! take courage n walk.. daddy is always behind you watching..

This is also a reminder for me as God is our Father in Heaven and we are his children. He will always give us the best and His love for us is just so amazing. the Heavenly Father's love for us is the greatest love of all! Thank you Lord!






P/S: Christianity is not a religion! It's a relationship with God! Amen!

Guns n Roses - Knocking on Heaven's Door

As i was driving out to do banking about 2 hours ago, suddenly this song just came into my mind and cant stop playing itself in my head. so i just post it here.. since this is what i normally do.. good things must share... :)

Song #2

Some how every time when i hear this song it kind of will bring me back to Kapit.

"it's rainy evening. i'll be sitting at the main entrance of my grandpa's shop. staring out side at the old basketball court.."

I am not sure why this scene always appear when i hear that song.. but the song really can bring me back to my childhood.





.. Fly.. Fly.. Fly.. Fly.. Fly.. Fly.. Fly.. Fly.. Fly.. Fly.. Fly.. Fly.. Fly.. Fly.. Fly.. Fly.. Fly.. Fly.. Fly.. Fly.. Fly.. Fly.. Fly.. Fly..


I hope i remember correctly la. i kind of learn this song for a Scout Camp in primary school. a few of us actually sang this on stage. (not really stage la..) but we kind of performed this songs together. but i seriously do not know what the song means. until now also a bit blur blur la.. but the fun part is... it brings back memory from Kapit... Sweet...

Songs...

i love music. i grew up listening to music. this is really part of my life and i am going share some of the songs with you. it's going to be a series of music feast. hope you enjoy..

i am just very amazed by the power of songs. they seems to be able to bring me back in time.. bring back the memories.. and it's just so powerful..

i am not sure how to start this but.. this very 1st song just bring my back to my small little cosy home town called Kapit.




my older cousin bought this album and i was there listen to this song with my cousin. at that time this is a very very HIT song. and i can sing along with the late singer because my voice was still like kids.. haha.. but not now.. will crack my vocal and die.. hahaha..

i remember we were sitting beside this huge black Sony radio (if i'm not wrong la) under the staircase and singing and shouting like nobody cares.. haha..

oh ya.. for those not my generation.. we use this thing called cassette to play the music ok.. not mp3 or CD or iPod... no download.. everything is original! haha..

Have a nice day!

The All-American Rejects- I Wanna

I just love this song.. They ROCK!!!

I never thought that I was so blind
I can finally see the truth
It's me for you
Tonight you can't imagine that I'm by your side
'Cuz it's never gonna be the truth
Too far for you

But can you hear me say?
Don't throw me away
And there's no way out
I gotta hold you somehow

I wanna I wanna I wanna touch you
You wanna touch me too
Everyday but all I have is time
Our loves the perfect crime

I wanna I wanna I wanna touch you
You wanna touch me too
Every way and when they set me free
Just put your hands on me

Take everything that I know you'll break
And I give my life away
So far for you
But can you hear me say
Don't throw me away?
There's no way out
I gotta hold you somehow

(Chorus)

Tonight I'm weak
It's just another day without you
That I can't sleep
I gave away the world for you to

Hear me say
Don't throw me away
There's no way out
I gotta hold you somehow
All I wanna do is touch you

(Chorus)

This I Promise You - Ronan Keating
