Chinese New Year 2007

What did you do for your Chinese New Year?

For me, either having the holidays to go somewhere or stay at home. I was just stayed at home most of the times.
As usual, on Chinese New Year's eve and first day, my family and relatives will be having the re-union dinner together.

This year on the eve itself, Minna's mum; the family had a re-union with my family and grandma at Royal China Restaurant. That restaurant was packed like hell with people until their services were sickening. Some of the customers waited for their second dishes for an hour or even more than that. They'd ordered the package meal that the restaurant offered which come with ther set of the dinner. The customers complaint to the waiters and waitresses or even to the supervisors but there nothing in return. Ended up they just left the table without paying any. The services was sucked and slow which we got to pour own drink-tea ourselves. But lucky enough that most of our foods came all and we had a proper slow dinner that time.

And here are the 2 photos. I didn't take any foods picture.


On first day of Chinese New Year, we had another re-union dinner with my uncles, my family and grandma. This time we went to Janet's workplace, the restaurant in the club house. There were 6 families came for the dinner which we had 2 tables for the re-union, which mean got 23 people. We were in a private room for the dinner which accommodate with karaoke system. While we were eating, some of them were singing. I got the chance to sing one song that kept playing in my head, 'Moon River'. I was singing solo while my mum was impressed that I could sing. But then my singing was soft and not entertaining. I'd enjoyed singing then. Beforehand, I drank abit of red wine, then my adrenalin was rushing cause I was nervous when was my turn to sing and my face turned red even more. :)

Again just with 2 photos and no foods picture:


Collection of ang pows are same on every each year with the same quantity and same values from the same people; relatives. But I got some ang pows from my new workplace although I was just working there for more than a month. This year, I didn't do many house visiting but only at one house of my schoolmate. After all, I was loitering around in the house with watching tv and sleeping.

On 9th day of Chinese New Year is to pray the Jade Emperor of Heaven (Tian Kong) for Hokkiens people. My family was part of Hokkiens and we did our prayers by offering and did some customary protocol for paying respect to the Emperor of Heaven in the midnight.

And now back to working life...

Moon River

Whenever I have nothing in my mind, sometimes this song will playing in my thoughts. I've only know how to sing the first two words and just sing the tune. I love this song cause it gives me some ease.



Moon river
Wider than a mile
I'm crossing you in style
Some day...

Old dream maker
You heart breaker
Wherever you're going
I'm going your way...

Two drifters
Off to see the world
There's such a lot of world
To see...

We're after the same rainbow's end
Waiting around the bend
My Huckleberry friend
Moon River and me...

Happy Valentine's Day to everyone

I felt like a normal day. Nothing much particular but happy to see most of my colleagues received their gifts and flowers by their loved one. I wasn't miss that too. Thanks to the gal-colleague who gave each of everyone a chocolate or even those receivers share their chocolates/candy.

Some of us who were 'single' just celebrate with close friends and families.

HP Inter-Action Live in Transmission Party!

I got a private invitation from HP of their new launching ultra cool HP Pavilion tx1000 notebook with a concept of Inter-Action Live in Transmission! 5 parties – 5 cities – 5 world class artistes all in 1 night.

HP presents Inter-Action live in transmission by broadcasting Too Phat (Malaysia), Hifana (Taiwan), DJ Kentaro (Singapore), Qiu Hong (Hong Kong) and Dynamic Duo (Korea).

It sounded cool and I was excited to check out the place where it held at Maison, Jalan Yap Shak. The party were given free flow alcohols. I’ve never been to that area that even curios to check it out. Irene, herself did receive the private invitation and we were planned to go for it.

Firstly got to thanks to Irene’s friends who fetching us. Althought it wasn’t enjoyable nite for them as they were not given the media passes but they were enjoying checking out the girls. Heehee

Thanks to Mel for helping us to get the media passes that I and Irene got to get upstairs with the celebrities. I managed to get up close with some of the celebrities like taking pictures with them for my updating blog or even for my memories.

HP’s Inter-Action party was great with the audio visual innovation by interacting via satellite transmission from Asia, DJ Kentaro, Dynamic Duo, Hifana and Too Phat to the next level with non-stop aural and visual exchange of musical energies and a human computing experience like no other.

Live and direct transmission begins at 9pm sharp with:

• Hifana live in Taiwan at Club Luxy
• Too Phat live in Malaysia at Maison - Malique aka Que_Chill & Joe Flizzow aka JFK
• Qiu Hong live in Hong Kong at Edge

Too Phat was rock! The music was good. I and Irene were at the front row near the stage that was broadcasting live to other countries. I am famous! Heeheee

My new colleagues and ex-colleagues were there too. They were invited with media invitation. Really got to thanks to Mel and Irene's friends for fetching us. I hope they were enjoying themselves.


It was a good party. Memorable ones.

Gala Nite

I was so stress out at work for the past few weeks ago that I was working on my company’s gala nite which is a big event of the year. I was given the job to do the invitation card design, the event stage, the photo wall of fame, registration area with the same theme of gala nite.

The colour theme was purple and our staff’s dress code was in black cocktail/lounge wears. Our company has invited a lot of guests including VVIP from Ministry of Women, Family & Community Development, celebrities, high society people and the clients.

Our magazine organized this big event to give an award for the title of ‘Woman of the Year’ and ‘Young Woman Achiever’.

It held at Hotel Hilton Kuala Lumpur on 5th February 2007. The event turned out glamorous with the props, stage, table arrangements, flower arrangements, candles etc. We even invited the press media from NTV7 to have the cover of that event. We even invited Jacklyn Victor to perform as well as the LiT Performers. Our host of the nite was Bernie Chan. All of them were marvellous.

I won’t reveal much of the event but I’m going to post some of the pictures of me and my new colleagues. We were given glamorous touches from make-up artists and hair-stylists to look good as we need to usher the guests.

And here I am with a new ‘make-over’.


Some of my new colleagues:

Ex-CHIPsians Gathering - Dinner

I was given a project; to plan/organize a gathering dinner with my ex-colleagues. They asked me to be the organizer for this first outing. So I did. I'd emailed most of my colleagues about the gathering dinner, asked them where to eat which most convenient to all of us. Set the date and time. Once confirmed/agreed with the venue, I'd proceeded with the reservation.

And here were we. We were at Souled Out, Sri Hartmas on 3rd February, Saturday. Though I was expecting most of them come but it turned out was mesmerizing. Jue Fok who is currently working in Singapore came all the way. Long time Gary has been leaving the company also came with his wife. It was a fun nite, everyone enjoying their dinner. Get to updating with our different worklife.



Looking forward for next one. :)

1st February 2007 - Thaipusam

Those pictures were taken by using my Motorola E1070.

1st February was public holiday for Federal Territory of Wilayah Persekutuan and Thaipusam. Irene has called me to pay a visit at Batu Caves to see the celebration which she hasn’t experience and so am I. She wanted to take some photographs with my FM2 camera with a high ISO that she bought. So I was happy to go with her in the midnight after had difficulty in transportation.

We reached at the nearby roadside of the Batu Caves at about 2am++. There were a lot of people crowded the roads as well with the jammed. We were hanged out around for 4hours on the road that we weren’t had the chance to go into the Batu Caves’ entrance compound. It was terrible sandwiched with people which stucked the way of the entrance. We couldn’t enter but walked back to the river bank to see those devotees cleanse and get pierced by carrying various types of kavadi (burdens) with vel skewers. The most spectacular practice is the vel kavadi, essentially a portable altar up to two meters tall, decorated with peacock feathers and attached to the devotee through 108 vels pierced into the skin on the chest and back.

Anyhow, I didn’t bring the Digi-camera along as I was lazy to bring and no intention to take pictures that time. I was thinking of looking around but I took some photos with my camera-phone.




After we got tired and had enough of watching and photographing, we went to mamak nearby which opened 24hrs for a rest. The celebration wasn’t end till the next day. People still was coming in for praying.

Later on, I wanted to have light tim-sum at KL. We went to have our early breakfast for tim-sum. Chit-chat then spontaneously we think of places to go. Irene shows me where is the “Eye of Malaysia’ which is situated at Titiwangsa. It was a huge ferries wheel in the centre of the park. It was huge. Then we headed to KL Tower as we both haven’t visit the place. It opened at 9am. We reached there at about 8am++ and we were hanging around the area to take some photos. At sharp 9am, we bought our tickets at the counter and went up to the Observation Tower. We spent an hour sight-seeing around and took photos.





After that we headed to Maju Junction for a little shopping. At 1 something in the afternoon, we headed home. Nearly 12 hours that we didn’t sleep. It was a good experience though it tiring but it was fun!
