Manchester Trip

Aida & I went to Manchester... in the middle of the week!!! I don't wanna say why. No particular reason. If you know, then good, keep quite. It is no big deal. If you don't, I said, No big deal. Anyway, I LoVe the city... did I say CITY??? Yes, it is a city. Despite the unfriendly weather, I love the atmosphere. There were big shopping stores... Really2 big and they have more scattered around the town. I didn't get the opportunity to window shopping around, which was a pity but I did have a good look though. I would love to go there again. Probably next time, I'll take my time and go into each and every single store just to enjoy the feeling of window shopping in a big place... just like in KL. hehe. Hmm, I sound like I miss KL... and I really do. I like a place that reminds me of home. KL is my home and I'm going back this winter. Yeayyy. ~ We stayed there for a night... at a friend's house, Mimi, who was a really good hostess. Thanx a lot, dear. Hope we did not bother her so much. If not, next time she probably doesn't want to be our tour guide anymore. hehe. Well, there's not much to tell when we were only there for a short while. I was a bit jakun when I see the tram. Not that I've never seen one before but there is no tram in London. They also have the wheel of Manchester, which is very much like the London Eye but this one goes around faster and is only available in winter. They take it down in Summer. I wonder why. Then, there's the Christmas market, where they sell lots of stuff including hot chocolate and brandy. What a combination... Even if I could, I don't dare try it. And for record breaking category, this is the first time I had a ride in a car since I've been here in the UK excluding the trips to and fro airports, that is. haha. All in all, I had a great time exploring. One down here... More to go :)

68 Beechfield Road Movie Night

When Aida & I went to a PwC application skill session a couple of weeks ago, the speaker kept on saying something like "Thanx for coming, I know it is Friday night. You must have a lot of plans" or "I don't want to keep you any longer. It is Friday night. You must have some more interesting things to do than listening to this talk". Aida & I were like "Yeah, right. What do we always do on Friday night? Stayed in and hmm, that's all. Probably catching up with some work." (Usually that won't be me. I don't work that much. I probably just did nothing. hehe) On the way back, we were talking and thinking about it... and later decided (along with Dina)... that on the coming Friday nights, we would have a movie night in... no work and it's compulsory for everyone. Hehe.
The first movie was Step Up... It was real great fun. All 4 of us sat on the couch, under Aida's bulky duvet, while eating chocolates, watching the very inspiring movie. Inspiring? Yes... coz after that movie, I kept on bugging them to do a choreographed dance for 68 Beechfield Road. Shasa dear. Can you be our choreographer? haha.
Last weekend, we had our second night in. This time, there were 5 of us... Azmir was around. The chosen movie was 'Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind'. Gosh. When Yat recommended the story to me months ago, (or was it yearsss ago?) I thought it was a light comedy movie. That is one heavy movie but nevertheless, it is very romantic. Recommended to everyone... one of the movies where you could watch Jim Carrey's serious face. So there you go... who say we are pathetic? We are not... We are fun. Go girls!!! ;)

I'm just soooo pening with all this work application thingy. And what's worse, I feel like I'm going no where with it. And I'm scared to go through the process. All the adrenalin rush could make me sick. No time for a long entry. Just wanna dedicate this song to Hazmi. Yes, I really feel like I'm running, in this rat race that is. Please keep holding my hand :) and Don't stop inspiring me... The whole song la. You know what I mean when I dedicate a song to u right? ;) Love u, sweetheart. Muahss!

Four quick tips for a happier life

If you live by just a few simple guidelines, you can seriously change your outlook on life -
AND the way that people perceive you as well!

Don't ever take anything personally...
When you are happy with who you are it shouldn't matter what anyone thinks anyway!

Don't worry. Worrying never solves anything!
Whether you have control over something or not, you shouldn't waste your time or efforts on unnecessary stress.

Always do the absolute best you can do - and always tell the truth!
The more effort you put forth, the more you learn and the less regrets you'll have.

Don't expect too much.
Don't even expect to receive as much as you give, it only opens the door for disappointment.
Be happy with what you do for others and be pleasantly surprised if they do the same (or more) for you!

Enjoy your life! ~
