I'm On A (3 Weeks) Break!

Okay, so while I write this, I'm already in my very first week of my break. And I'm sooooo enjoying it!

But first let me say that I know that I'm (sooo...) lucky!! Well, especially so in Malaysian context.. Like, how many working people actually get to go for such a break, huh? This ain't Australia, right? (On a side note, no wonder so many Malaysians wanna migrate to Australia!).

So what have I been doing so far? Enjoying life that is, and enjoying the moments!

One of them - sleeping in! And doing nothing except exercising the eyes. Yeah, like staying in bed & watching one of my favourite (adult) cartoons - American Dad!

The other thing that I've been having fun with is swimming at the pool with this beautiful view of the twin towers!

Got this G Tower Hotel gym membership from one of those discount voucher sites (Groupon if not mistaken), and I must say this 1 month 'trial' is really a pleasure - not so much for the gym per say, but the pool!

Taking my time to think of what nice to eat (and not just eat anywhere cos it's convenient) - that's another thing that I've been doing. Like this lunch today - one of the best (if not the best) fish head beehoon that I've ever eaten (@ Soon Soon Pan Mee & Fish Head, Damansara Perdana).

This is the old logo. Stay tuned for a 'revised' version :)

And oh yeah, working on my passion/ interests & dreams..!! Yeap, Summer Love the webseries is now revived (finally!). Lots happening behind the scene now (ie planning & meetings!), and that kinda fills my hands apart from the other leisurely stuff.

Oh, there's more. I'm also digitalising all my CDs - copying them into the computer. Done a bit the other day, but there's so much more (like really a lot more!) to go! Realised I have some unopened ones (ooops!).

So happens that the Travel fanpage (Travel Khaki) I'm doing also features Taipei. Haha!

Last but not least, planning for my holiday. And err.. after thinking through, I'm going to one of my top 3 favourite cities.. Taipei! Oh yeah!

I can't wait (that's happening towards the end of the 3 weeks). But wait, let me enjoy the other moments too! Ah.... life. How I wish this won't end.. Hahaha! :)

Remembering Steve Jobs

He came, he saw, he conquered. That's how I'd summarise Steve Jobs.

He saw the missing link in the music industry - and he fixed it. He saw what was the problems with handphones, and created one cool product for that.

And all these by a guy who wasn't from these industries at all. That's what inspires me. That he believes in what he does, has a vision for them, and made history happen... that despite the many people who didn't believe him initially.

I still remember a time when newspapers were reporting other CEOs from other phone companies brushing off the iPhone as a toy and that it will not succeed. But look at what it has done to the phone industry & the way we communicate. Oh, and make it cool along with it.

As a budding entrepreneur, he sure is an idol to look upon for his success & how he persevered to succeed - and succeed big! To be at his level, impacting lives, and making a difference in them - this is like nearly every other entrepreneur's dream.

But that's not all - the fact that Steve came from a humble background, was a school dropout, and someone who has been kicked from the own company he formed.. this is also the other side that I'm inspired about him. That he is also like any other human, like you & me.

And the fact he survived all those to create products after products that makes the earth stops moving when it's launched.. like the Mac, the iPod, the iPhone & the iPad.

So when his passing came along last week, sad I was. Like many, I will remember him for his creations to the world, and for the entrepreneur he was.

RIP, Steve Jobs.



A very inspiring speech by Steve Jobs which I believe everyone - entrepreneur or not, should watch & listen  :)

依然愛你 Still In Love With You (Yi Ran Ai Ni) By Wang Leehom

Been seeing this video being shared on my Facebook timeline.. which prompted me to watch.

After all, it's Leehom's music - which is still one of the reasons I still Mando pop!

Btw, love the video. It has the right lovey dovey moments all in the right place, while not being overly cutesy like some MTVs :)

Btw, guess what, the MTV is created by non other than Wong Fu Productions! Now, that's sure one collaboration & inspiration!

Here's the sing-along lyrics, which I'm sure many will want to sing to:

Wang Leehom 依然愛你 Still In Love With You

一閃一閃亮晶晶
留下歲月的痕跡
我的世界的中心
依然還是你

一年一年又一年
飛逝僅在一轉眼
唯一永遠不改變
是不停地改變

我不像從前的自己
你也有點不像你
但在我眼中你的笑
依然的美麗

日子只能往前走
一個方向順時鐘
不知道還有多久
所以要讓你懂我依然愛你 就是 唯一的退路
我依然珍惜 時時刻刻的幸福
你每個呼吸 每一個動作 每個表情
到最後 一定會
依然愛你

我依然愛你 或許是 命中注定
多年之後 任何人都無法代替
那些時光是我這一輩子最美好的
那些回憶 依然無法忘記

我依然愛你 就是 唯一的退路
我依然珍惜 時時刻刻的幸福
你每個呼吸 每一個動作 每個表情
到最後 一定會
依然愛你

你每個呼吸 每一個動作 每個表情
到永遠 一定會
依然愛你

Twinkling sparkling
Leaving traces of the years
The center of my world
Or do you still

Year after year after year
Flies only in a blink of an eye
The only change is never
Is constantly changing

I like their former
You a little bit like you
But in my eyes your smile
Still beautiful

Days can only move forward
A Fangxiang Shun clock
Do not know how long
So let you know I still love you is the only escape route
I still cherish every moment of happiness
Every breath you face every action of each
Will end
Still love you

I still love you may be destined
Years later no one can replace the
That time is the best my life
Still can not forget those memories

I still love you is the only escape route
I still cherish every moment of happiness
Every breath you face every action of each
Will end
Still love you

Every breath you face every action of each
Will forever
Still love you
