Thermophobia

Depression! Panic stricken! Suffocated!

I am shaking to the core!!

Don't have the faintest idea what I am studying and the test in another 2 days ahead.

I am now digging my own grave.

R.I.P, or not.

微笑

摘自面子书XENCE

面对讨厌的人，对他微笑，笑得真诚，因为你在无视他，

面对你的敌人，对他微笑，笑得真诚，让他猜不透你，

面对比你强的人，对他微笑，笑得真诚，让他轻视你，

面对比你弱的人，对他微笑，笑得真诚，让他跟随你，

面对无理的人，对他微笑，笑得真诚，让他无可奈何，

面对风度的人，对他微笑，笑得真诚，显示你的风度，

面对你爱的人，对他微笑，笑得真诚，他会读懂你的心...

面对众人的不谅解时，保持微笑，因为你必需知道你并没有错，

面对不满的事情时，保持微笑，你没必要让别人的过错影响你，

面对欺骗的时候，保持微笑，这样你才能看见最精彩的结局，

面对无奈的时候，保持微笑，因为无奈不是你哭就能解决的...

如果有一天，你真的伤心了，你真的累了，真的想哭了，

学着微笑面对众人吧，没人能够理解你的眼泪的，

即使理解，也没人能够替你承受那样的痛苦...

如果有个人懂得你的人，让他看见你的眼泪，

如果你没有遇见那个人，自己躲着一个人哭吧，

伤心过了，哭过了，你应该学会如何笑得真挚，

微笑，不是让你带着一副假面具去面对人生，

你要学会的是，无论什么样的时候都能笑得真诚，

那一种发自内心的微笑，那一种与心情无关的微笑，

渐渐地，你会发现，

微笑真的只是一个表情，不能代表你的喜悦，

但这样的微笑却能够能让你明白，

真的没什么事情是值得你去发脾气的，

遇见开心的事，笑一笑，日子就这样过了，

遇见难过的事，笑一笑，其实也没多难过...

真正的微笑，并不是因为你开心，

而是因为你学会如何去不在乎了...

Study Week

Today is Wednesday. The third of my study week. Strictly saying this should already be the fifth day taking into account the weekend.

I don't know how I should describe my progress, however I am not doing it good enough. And a pretty slow and slack phase. Argh~ So frustrating. Have you ever been in the situation where you try to stay focus and squeeze in as much your brain can absorbed, ended up a quarter product from your effort. Pathetic...

Life is plain dull and miserable. The one and only thing that need to be done, literally is to study. And there they are, my notes stacking up high. Duh~ I had been real cranky and jumpy. Shame on me. >.<

In times like this, I am just fortunate and blessed to have this someone. Hehe.. Who would allowed me to complain and rant, who would hold on to me. Helping me in studies as well as fulfilling my craving. *giggle

A sneak-peak of my Chocolate Indulgence, still in the box. Heee ^^

Together with the cake there is a note of encouragement and affection. ♥♥

I'm still stress.... Minus a little. Haha..

God Answers Prayers

It is finally the unwanted study week, signifying the end of the semester as well as my second year in university. What awaits next is the final examination.

Every time during this period I would transform into a grumpy old lady. Sulking over never-ending dissatisfactions and complaints.

I knew that time is of the essence but I just can't seems to be fully focused or at least cut down the wasted hours to the least.

I don't know what is wrong with me but I just seems to have a lot in mind.

Hereby I am sharing this song, 'Did You Ever Talk To God' with everyone. This song brings great comfort and solace.

I tried to download it from Youtube and share it here but I can't find a proper one. However there are a number of covers for this song for those who haven't heard of it.

Did you ever talk to God above

Tell Him that you need a friend to love

Pray in Jesus's name believing that

God answers prayers

Have you told Him all your cares and woes

Every tiny little fear He knows

You can know He'll always hear

And He will answer prayers

Find the answers in His word it's true

You'll be strong because He walks with you

By His faithfulness He'll change you too

God answers prayers

You can whisper in a crowd to Him

You can cry when you're alone to Him

You don't have to pray out loud to Him

He knows your thoughts

On a lofty mountain peak He's there

In a meadow by the stream He's there

Anywhere on earth you go

He's been there from the start

Good luck in the final exam peeps! And lets survive the bounce and twiddle through study week.

Off Day

It was Saturday, a perfect day to perform a 'prison break'. Have a break, have a Kit-Kat.

We set off at 8 in the morning, where the weather was chilly and perfect for a runaway. Hehe. Our first target was the infamous Toh Soon Cafe which is well known for their home-brew coffee and toasted bread. Having no idea the exact location of our destination, we follow the lead of the GPS. This application is absolutely invented for people like me. I remember when I was a kid, I had difficulties in making out the routes to any places. Yes, yes, now still. I never imagined that such an application would become real then. No fuss over getting loss now. Thanks to the growing technology. *grin

Alright, so we reached Campbell Street and the GPS lost it. I guess every technology has their own shortcomings. We got down the car to search for the place as Campbell Street is absolutely crowded in the morning from the people going to the market. To our dismay, it started to rain. Having no umbrella, we had to dodge from the rain under huge umbrellas from stall to stall. Our effort finally paid off when we finally spotted the cafe which is located in what i would consider an alley.

Despite the heavy rain and early hour, this small cafe was totally crowded with customers from all age range. I believed some are tourists as they brought along DSLR and snapping non-stop at everything. The popularity.

My breakfast. ^^ For a non coffee lover, I totally fell for the coffee here. The coconut jam and butter in the toasted Hailam bread were in a perfect proportion where non of the flavour overwhelm the other.

After a filling breakfast, we headed to my favourite bakery, the Continental Bakery. We arrived shortly after 10am where the breads are freshly baked from the oven. The moment we stepped into the bakery, the aroma of fresh pastry filled our nostrils.

They have yet to fill the rack with varieties of breads and buns. There is the bread cutter and wrapping machine behind.

Trays of fresh breads.

By then the rain stopped. What better than getting close to mother nature on a beautiful relaxing morning. Botanical Garden was our next stop. It had been quite some time since I last went for a walk there. My sedentary lifestyle. There was a huge reconstruction along the way there. Non of the roadside stalls as well as ice-cream carts were seen.

The lily pond

Cannon-ball tree

The air was fresh, the greenery was comfy, however, I got mosquito-bites all over by the time we left the garden. So much for my morning walk. We then planned to visit the Penang Reptile Farm, not known to us that they had shut down for quite some time. There goes my memory of my kindergarten graduation trip.

By the time, someone was hungry already. XP So we went for lunch at Queensbay Mall. Sakae Sushi was the selection of the day. Being all sweaty and tired from the morning walk, LOLX, anywhere air-conditioned is definitely good for me.

Still full from breakfast, my Unagi Temaki. We shared the Kakiage (mixed vegetable tempura) and Fried Lobster Maki. Yum yum. However, my cold green tea tasted of sesame oil. Yucks.

After lunch, I went home to see my beloved parents. Whee~ I honestly missed home a lot. Perhaps due to the coming final which is somehow exerting certain amount of pressure on me. The reward for going home (besides getting to see them), two bags of fruits. I am a fruit lover. Yay!!

I had craved for the Ice-Kacang at the hawker center near my housing area for quite some time. But the 'congested' car park loaded with cars from don't-know-where gave away my dream. Nevermind, there is a four-month holiday waiting. Since we planned to go for a movie at TGV, why not the Famous Penang Teochew Chendol instead? *chuckles

At Rm1.90 per bowl, this dessert is totally delish and affordable. The tauke is a live chendol making machine. The queue was never-ending.

After quenching out thirst, 1st Avenue here we come. The only reason I am going to 1st Avenue is for the TGV cinema. Perhaps the Redbox KTV is the second attraction. I was hoping to try the new beanieplex, but alas, the movie showing was Sucker Punch. So between Hop and Don't Go Breaking My Heart, we went for the latter. We walked around while waiting, and spotted a shop selling Lomography camera. Soo cute!! I am gonna get my hand on one. Hiak hiak.

It was then time for movie, but we noticed we lost the tickets!! We tried searching for them at every possible places. Unfortunately, we didn't managed to find them. Bummer... If anyone actually picked out tickets and went for the movie, I hope they sat on prickled cushion.

Forget about that part, my turn to get hungry. Since we haven't gone to James Foo for a long time and I kinda missed their Chicken Corden Blue, we decided to have a western dinner. We arrived to notice that they have moved to the shop lot at the very corner with new furnishing. Too bad the place is fully seated and a few number of groups already standing there waiting for tables. I decided not to wait any longer. So we left. Again, nevermind, the four-month holiday is waiting.

The new James Foo Restaurant

Since Gurney Mall is nearby, we went there instead. After much considering over the eatery available, we opted for Xuan Xin Noodle House. Wise choice. Hehe

Honeydew and Sago

Fried Satay Sauce Beef Noodles

Lion Head Soup Noodles

I can hereby say that they are the best noodle house in town. Haha. Every mouthful of the fried noodles burst with flavours. Hehe

The day ended with us going to the seaside for a stroll and a small talk. Serene is much appreciated these days.

The day is lovely simply with you by my side. ♥
