I just got back from a holiday somewhere in PD.It wasn't a grand holiday whereby I got to go for an expensive spa treatment or suchbut for me it is the best holiday day I had this year. It was just a laid back holiday whereby I could read my book without any disturbance and the kids are having fun in the swimming pool all day. We only went out once for dinner on the first day at one of the famous Ikan Bakar place in Pasir Panjang, N9.The food is excellent and cheap. We had fish (medium size), squid (big size), prawn (freshly caught), otak-otak (grilled fish meat wrapped in coconut leaves) with freshly prepared fruit juices.
Actually, we did plan to go out for another seafood place in PD but we were too lazy to drive out since the ambience in the resort is so serene and peaceful.
Well, eventually I have to wake up from my dream and go back to the reality of life. The hassle and bustle of the city live....sigh!!!!
It has been awhile since I wrote anything in my blog. I have changed job. Found a job nearer to my house. Well, actually the job found me in a way!. I know it is such big decision.Changing job during current economic downturn but the previous job I'm in is not that secure since it is a semiconductor company. On top of the $$$ offered is far more inviting and this company is dealing with commodity industry which in my opinion and my friends opinion, should be more stabilised than semiconductor industry.
Well hopefully, everything will turn out right for me. :)
I went and watch Twilight as this movie has been talked about like it is the movie of the year. Especially those who are really into that Robert Pattinson aka Edward Cullen aka Cedric guy (one of the Harry Potter movie). To my dismay, it is not up to my expectation. It is just another teenagers love story without any strong plot whatsoever....sorry to all the fans out there.
However I love one the soundtrack, played by Muse - Supermassive Black Hole. So here it goes....
And another one Decode by Paramore, also not bad either.
A very heart warming storyline.From this book, we can have two different view on how people dealt with incident happen in their life.From a mother who feels that she has failed her lost son and her family. She was suppose to protect him but yet it happen while he was under her care.She feels suffocated from the attention that she received from people around her, yet without them she could never face the world again and try to move on. From a son who feels neglected because his family focus is only on the lost son.Naturally by portraying a rebellious act, he will received some attention from his parents. Sometimes we tried so hard to make things happen the way we think it should be, until we didn't realize that we hurt people around us.It is not easy to deal with emotion and tried to erase the guilt of failure in protecting her own child.This is a good book to read.
One thing I've noticed about working out on cardio machines is that they can be very, very boring. Music is one thing that gets me through and I like to put my favorite workout songs about halfway through my routine to give me that extra kick I need to keep going.
I really love this topic because I've gotten some great ideas for songs to add to my workout playlists. I tend to get obsessed with songs, listen to them until I can't stand them anymore, then feel bereft when I don't have another great song to take it's place. So help me out by telling me all about your favorite exercise songs...rock, pop, alternative, country or even your favorite audiobooks to listen to. Leave them here in comments so I can update my playlists with the best songs to workout to.
This is my fav workout songs:
1.Pump It - Black Eyed Peas
2.Teenagers - My Chemical Romance
3.You and Your Hand - Pink
4.Lady Marmalade - Moulin Rouge OST
5.I'm Outta Love - Anastacia
6.Don't Stop The Music - Rihanna
7.Shut Up and Drive - Rihanna
8.Numb - Linkin Park
9. Papercut - Linkin Park

Dorian Gray is a symbolic idea of current people who wishes to cheat the natural process of aging. Yes, he got what he wanted but the price that he has to pay for it is nonetheless very demeaning and evil.Would you rather stay young forever but live in pool of guilt and damnation.I guess it is true what people said about being careful of what you wishes for it might comes true and in the end you will regret it for the rest of your life.....
Initially, the storyline is a bit mundane. About love, family and all the obstacles that they have to face in order to be together.Though I thought after they got married, they will live happily ever after but I was mistaken as I was dragged into another phase of life filled with secrets and how this woman has to handle it.Accepting a truth was never easy, trying to forgive and forget is another thing. Would it be easy to look into a person face whom she love and adored without any prejudice of the mistakes that he has done.Life is always full of surprises and sometimes we thought that we know who we are, yet we are still capable of doing things that we thought we are incapable of.
I've been listening to Rascal Flatts for quite sometimes and I personally feel their songs are awesome!!!. To name a few songs like What Hurts The Most and My Wish have been playing in my Ipod like forever.
Another song from them which kinda meaningful is "Winning At A Losing Game"
Baby, look here at me
Have you ever seen me this way
I've been fumblin' for words
Through the tears and the hurt and the
Pain
I'm gonna lay it all out
On the line tonight
And I think that it's time
To tell this uphill fight goodbye
[Chorus:]
Have you ever had to love someone
That just don't feel the same
Tryin' to make somebody care for you
The way I do
Is like tryin' to catch the rain
And if love is really forever
I'm a winner at a losin' game
I know that baby, you tried
To find me somewhere inside of you
But you know you can't lie
Girl, you can't hide the truth
Sometimes two hearts
Just can't dance to the same beat
So I'll pack up my things
And I'll take what remains of me
[Chorus]
I know that I'll never be the man that you need or love
Yeah, baby it's killin' me to stand here and see
I'm not what you've been dreamin' of
[Chorus]
Oh, oh, if love is really forever
I'm a winner at a losin' game
Oh, I'm tired of losing
Oh, oh, oh-
Enjoy peeps!!!!
