Some thoughts to share...

Wow, how time flies and we have reached the last quarter of year 2011. Has it been almost 2 months since my last entry? So much has happened in the past few months or so. Yet, so little time for me to write them all down.

Guess what?? i'm happy and glad to announce that i have managed to fulfill and accomplished 80% of my 2011 resolutions. yayyyy!!! what an accomplishment!! way the go,abbe!!!:p i know,i know,self-praise is no praise but the hard works counts, and the feeling of satisfaction is just so good,well at least for now.

Hmmm, whats' next???

Somehow i have wondered, i am sure you have heard people saying – we have to do this and this, plan this and that so that our future is secured?. These talks have been going on endlessly by my parents. I guess they cared for me very much as a parent to their 3 lovely daughters.:P

But what about the present, the time that we are currently living in, the time that will just slip by if we think or plan too much into the future.We work so hard for the future that we just don’t notice that time slips away quietly. Soon, 5, 10 or even 20 years go by, unnoticed.
"All work and no play makes abby a dull girl", :P

I have stopped looking too far into the future because I know the future is actually not within my control. I don’t know what my future holds. I can plan. I can hope that GOD will make the future, that I want, becomes a reality. But, is the future that I want really good for me? I can never know and no one knows.

I have planned my future road maps like how old I want to get married, the number of children I want, the type of house I want to stay in, my career progression, my financial positions but I realised that life never goes according plan. That’s the reality and beauty of life. It is filled with obstacles and challenges that we may never foresee.

I have learnt that living the current moment, without too much planning for the future will have less anxiety, less heartache, less disappointment and you will feel more content and at peace with yourself.

Ernz, i agreed that 'Life is fragile' and who knows what will happen on the next day or future,hence, live life to the fullest and be appreciative of your loved ones and people around you. I want to live in the moment at present spending time with my loved ones, family and friends who have always be part of my life and a place in my heart.

True enough, the satisfaction of achieving good results in life could be so great, irregardless of your career, gaining a higher status or earning more income, it is all back to square one, my family, loved one and friends ~ the most important people in my life whom i want to share and spent time with because no matter what, it is because of them, where i am standing still right now.

Cheers~

Holding on

I hope you mean everything you say. You keep saying those wonderful things that makes me so happy. I hope you mean those things. I have a lot of hopes for you. And all i can do is to sit back and pray. Pray that you are the right person for me, pray that i'll have the strength to be there for you and to let you go if i have to.

Hello June!!!

Hello June!! Or rather July!!

I can’t believe it’s already gonna be end of June! It just dawned on me that we're already on the half-year mark of 2011! And I've been in my new company for more than 3 months and yet still surviving. Whoa! So it's true that "time flies when you are busy!" It’s pretty much HALFWAY through 2011!

Today i finally manage to sit down in front of a laptop and actually 'feel' like blogging. but guess what? i have nothing to blog about. i feel as if i'm at a bottleneck, where there are too many things happening at one go, nothing much can come out. I always try and remind myself to blog about something of more substance, but just like every other day, it never happens.

My life as of late has been hectic early morning at work, big ceramic mugs full of ‘ayam Brands’ or chicken of essences, seized opportunities and thinking about my future, on that note: daydreaming, attempting to be a better cook, sketch pads filled with messy pencil marks, journals filled with disorganized thoughts, dodging unwanted calls/text messages, vivid nightmares, finishing comic books, and trying. really trying. i’m sorry i don’t have many words for you guys lately—but I've been busy living.

To further elaborate, lately, I don't have time for anything else other than my work stuffs, and when I do, I'm usually too worn out to want to do anything. All I'd be thinking about is lying in bed, reading a good book/magazines or talking to my good friends and my loved one, Mr.Triple A (missing you dearly every single day here):p.
It's times like this where I wish I had more chances to just have a blank mind and do nothing. Just chill.

I cancelled all the outdoor activities which I was supposed to have because I want to catch up on rest and relax. And in the end I find myself straining over ridiculous things, and I regretted not going out for that cycling or ‘mamak’ session.

On friday night, I was finally out to catch up with my former colleagues for dins and happy hour session at La Bodega, Empire Gallery. The company was worth it. I was worn out and tired, as usual, but happy that I got out anyway. All my energy is drained and used for the daily workloads, and just like the fuel in my car, it kinda goes down exponentially.

Anyway, I'd like to see where I’ve been, what I’m doing and what I’m trying to achieve.

Its time to look after my skin, like seriously. Gotta drink more H20 everyday, apply more lotion and get more sleep.

Get Organized! I’m all over the place! I have so much happening these next three months!!!

Make a difference. This was easily done by recognizing how my actions, be them big or small, makes a difference everyday.

Fitness. Gotta exercise more to burn all the calories over my recent indulgences. More time for housekeeping, frequent car wash and go for walks with ‘wasabi’.

Procrastination & Determination. I was supposed to learn sewing (yes,you heard me) and try new recipes which I have planned some time ago and yet have been procrastinating about this, where are the foodies?? Milk butter chilli chicken with white rice and pork dumplings!!!
It is one of my resolutions to become a good 'cook', so to make my future hubby happy (whoever he may be).

Relationships. It has always been never easy for me and at many times, I asked GOD: Why me? What exactly have I done in the past to be treated like this? Is this a form of punishment? I guess GOD has mysterious ways of helping us to learn in life. I now know what I want and i am working towards it to make it happen with hopes that both of us can make it through. But I say to myself everyday when the time is right it will happen.
And it will. I believe in ♥ je t'aime, do you?
A good friend’s bro of mine has posted this article and I find it very interesting. http://www.goodblogs.com/view-post/How-to-survive-a-long-distance-relationship.





That’s all for now folks, until then, adios for now.

i like you

I'd been alone for so long i was sure that romance just wasn't on the cards for me until I met him.
He can start blabbing from A to Z,blah blah blah,from girls (his expertise), politics, sports, entertainment and what so ever. He can even talk to you about the stupidest things on earth.
He is seriously,highly egoistic at times, you should do this and that,la,di,da,macho?? nah…:P
He tells a lot of jokes,funny and lame ones.
He loves to tease and laugh at me,all times. Why???? I have no idea.
You can tell he is moody by the tone of his voice and it is pretty scary. For me at least.
He has a habit of forgetting stuffs,intentionally or unintentionally, I really don’t know and it really irritates and disappoints me which I am pretty much used to it by now.
His ways, the way he treats me…..
I want to punch him in the face but I can't help that I realized I like him..a lot and enjoy his annoying presence.:P, and that makes all the difference.
I simply just like the way you are.

I began spending every moment thinking about you, wondering what you were doing and what you were thinking. I get pretty emo due to missing you on daily basis despite the daily texting and calls but it never feels close enough. The days feel so long without you.
I know we are bigger than this and though it is tough at times, we will figure it out and I hope we continue to enjoy every aspect of each other in any way we can. Keep sending me pictures of your lunch and I will keep sending you photos of me too except for those,:P.
Missing you doesn’t get any easier. I know its gonna be hard and if I manage to make it through the hard times then its worth it and its meant to be.

I like you not only for what you are but for what I am when I am with you.

I hope you will feel the same too.

XOXO
Abby

I Heart Lomography

“Lomography is the art of casual, snapshot photography using low-fidelity cameras. Unconventional characteristics such as over-saturated colors, off-kilter exposure, blurring, distortion and alternative film processing are often considered part of the "Lomographic Technique." – source from the net.
Photos taken with a lomo camera have high contrast, twisted colors, and a noticeable vignette.

Pictures source from the net

I feel like buying a lomo camera BUT I dont know which one should I buy?
I've been wanting to dabble in lomography but still contemplating on which brand I should opt for, Fisheye, Diana F or Holga…. I m still waiting to land my hands on one.

I like the effects of the pictures,it is like they never tell you straight out what it is and it just allows you to make your own interpretations.


Its a lot of fun with great results and a pretty cool stuff actually.. I want one now :P
