This journey is incredibly humbling for me.

From being wounded and not knowing which way is up and wondering whether or not i could be ALIVE or not and at the same time, finding new MEANING in my new life in this FOREIGN place.....It's been an AMAZING journey

I am a daughter, sister, dog-owner and friend.

Currently, i am learning to train my mind and body. I want to hold my body, challenge my physical ability to a level i could never imagine.

I definitely have learn to stop letting these people who do so little for me in my life but control so much of my mind, feeling and emotions.

Learning to let them go from my life is definitely one of the best achievement i ever done to myself.

Goodbye my friends.... Hope when we meet again, we are once strangers again.

Today i'm bored.....

17 Nov 2007.... Aunt's house...
Today i'm alone in the house.... all this while, also like this..... all alone in a house in Ipoh... i just can't find anywhere i can go alone in Ipoh..... Of course, i'm the anti-social type.... i remembered a friend commmented me as the anti-social, snobbish bitch....
And today again.... i'm all alone... watching "Heart of Greed"...... And then fall in love with Raymond.... Ahhh.... so handsome lawyer..... but he died...... then, my emotion goes down to floor again.... because it reminds me of the past.....
Seung Joi Sum.... has to undergo the same tremor as i'm..... aiyo..... Darn.... seeing Seung Joi Sum is going through the same process as before... Wow.... what an impact??? I'm wondering here when will this emotion leave me???????

The Sungai Buloh Leprosy Settlement.

I had the best view from my room back in hostel..... tat's the peaceful leprosy centre from my room....


Today, I read my The Star Weekender "Reduce to Rubble” written by Shoba Mano, As mentioned in the article, Uncle Ratan passed away early this year, and this really gives me a spam of heartfelt as I know this uncle.... Not that well, but in my memory, I know as the multi-lingual cheerful uncle which rode his “Kap Chai” around the settlement, the first time, I met him, he spoke with me in Canto…. It gives me hell of shocked…. Deep down in my heart, I was telling myself, luckily I didn’t badmouth anybody in Canto, or else he’ll understand what I said…. Hahaha…. He was the man that offered the settlement "Balai Raya" with badminton court and ping pong ball facilities to us. He was the man that introduces Leprosy Settlement to me. Uncle Ratan is one of the person in-charge of the Leprosy Settlement..... He looks after the place.......... So, he knows many many things......
Sometimes you should not trust you ear so much till you see it with your own eyes..... This proverb is suitable for people who have heard bout the Sungai Buloh Leprosy Settlement but never set a foot in it. Please do believe half of the story. Story such as the ugly, deformed people will still infect you with the leprosy virus and this people can’t walk and will beg u to give them money and feed them, the stigma goes on and on.... these are all BULL SHIT!!!!!! Uncle Ratan looks so healthy and still goes around with his “Kap Chai”. And some Leprosy patients have their own beautiful flowers farms and they are earning income independently.
The blend of nature and man-made history.....

I’m one of the pioneer students of Physio College who moves into the newly-built hostel and college of KSKB, which situated in Sungai Buloh, and right below my hostel is the Sungai Buloh Leprosy Settlement. I just love the place. You want to know why, because that is where the Physio students spent their time as there are just not enough place for few thousands students in the hostel to play sport and have gathering without others people keep nosing at our business. The Sungai Buloh Leprosy Settlement provides us the one and only basketball court, badminton court, ping pong tables, jogging track.... and last but not least.... the beautiful scenery with hills of beautiful trees as our back drop... and non-polluted fresh air as the oxygen supply. And the only thing we need to do is just climb down the slop of the hill, trespass a nursery and then, VOILA…. Drop by and drink cooling yet cheap coconut drink….. Yummy… and then…. Roll our basketball……

Today, this Leprosy Centre is only left in my memory......


And today, the demolishment of the settlement has done, I just feel is definitely waste of money and also the person who decide to demolish the settlement has jus insulted and history-maker site and ended a history of the brave Malaysians who no matter what happened to them, they still move on with their life, and successfully bring out the stigma from them and set their own identity in this small community. This also make Malaysia has poorer sense of preserving our own legacy and identity. WHERE IS THE SEMANGAT MALAYSIA BOLEH in this issue?????? Malaysian today who has not experience the past, will not understand the importance of certain things in advancing their future. So, MALAYSIA BOLEH is only useful in international arena???? That’s rather ironic to hear…..

Little Joe..... U got to stable the durian this way... Whole it properly.......Aiyo....... holding the cloth also..... Useless... spoilt urban brats.... the hand's flesh so darn thin..... U got to do this way..... Open it..... with both hands... show ur biceps!!!!!! Here comes the yummy..... flesh........ I jus love it......
Or...... you use this way..... to open it.... your whole body weight..........
Dun worry.... come out baby...... yummy.....My mom and dad are so crazy with it.... Husband and Wife team.... Attacking the durians....I just can't allow sharing the durian.... with u..... i want it all..... My brother is so drunk with his durian..... This is one good species man.... fat, fleshy, smell strong.... goood...... yummy....
Lickin' finger goods... durians.... maniac.....
Let go the durian seed.... there is no more flesh already...... let it go......

That's the ending of the durian life..........

I have a lump over my periauricular......

When i was 8 years old, i lost my left earring when i was playing games with my friends in Assunta Primary. Well, days after the incidence, i have an infection over my left earlobe..... Soon, i have a small lump form over behind my earlobe. Over the years, i didn't know what it is.... so, i moved on with my life with it....

So, recently i decided to remove it after i went to pierce my ear after so many years of avoiding earrings. Few year back, every time i went to the flea market, i have to avoid earrings section as i know i don't have the chance to wear it ..... But, things change tremendously in Ipoh, i decided to pierce my ears again after waiting so many years........

My latest obsession over earrings.....

But right now, I'm looking forward to remove the lump behind my ear now.... And i was scheduled to have excision on last Tues, but last minute i defaulted the op in my gown because i suddenly have an vision of my scar behind my ear.... i feel very scare already.... so, i decided to see a plastic surgeon.... hopefully i can get a reasonable one....

The lump with me since 8 years old....
