Headache of our supper everyday, Eric enjoys trialling new recipes and ideas, so delicious, is a godsend. The sushi is not easy to make but extremely tasty. We were so impressed we'll make it again, perhaps this is just the first time we make, just to see if it was as good as we thought. I think the out look still nice right? haha... Hope next time will be better.

Easy Ice-cream


My Perfect break during working time, I love to treat myself to a Ice-cream with Pualina. Sound great in theory, haha... I know that can't make total sense to snack during working hour, but i cheer me up, perhaps i need just one more of those pretty and easy banana ice-cream for today.

Irish Chocolates


I love chocolate, i love wine. What better way to while away an afternoon than by having a leisurely tea and eating delicious chocolates... We don't need any excuses to eat chocolate, but this two collection of Ireland's signature chocolates is irresistibly tasty. Guinness dark chocolate is filled with plain chocolate (cocoa mass, sugar, cocoa butter, emulsifier: soya lecithin, flavour: natural vanilla), GUINNESS beer (0.1%), natural flavourings: floral hops, mixed spice and hop extract, taste with a little bit bitter. Irish Coffee Bar is enchanced with the flavour of Jameson wine and plain chocolate (cocoa mass, sugar, cocoa butter, emulsifier: soya lecithin, flavour: natural vanilla), Jameson Irish Whiskey, Irish Coffee flavour (0.2%), Jameson Irish Whiskey (0.1%). (Plain chocolate contains: 58% cocoa solids minimum). Damn nice, if you love pure chocolate and wine. But this product is intended for purchase and enjoyment by people of legal purchase age of alcohol beverages.

Control, control and control


I've a dreamt of big white wedding ever since i was small. But I'm from a conservative family and I'm the youngest in the family too, all of them have married, and they married life are exceptionally happy, whatever i do they will complain and discourage. In this family the only one who no control me is my father, he always support me the most since i was young until now, he lets me do whatever i wish, but we become strange when i was in high school and i seldom meet and talk to him also, i felt sad about it, yet we still care each other deep in heart even we no talk often. In this moment i miss my father so much. So marrying in my mid-twenties and settling down with 2 children was never going to happen to me. I'm 25 in this year, they still wanted to choose some guy for me which they think is good, they even wanted to involve to my relationship. I started to realize the most afflictive suffering in a relationship that's not because of the lover doesn't love you, that's not because of the lover leaves you alone, that's not because of the lover lies on you; the most afflictive in a relationship is without endorsement of the family. The last time I was actually in love was 6 years ago, we had a four months relationship that ended because of they were discourage me with the guy, the reason was I'm in college examination. 6 years after, they still do the same, controlling me. Why?

I started worry and pressure to get married if they keep on to control me. They will just think and talk what they see, but they would not understand what i actually wanted. I don like stay with them and listen to them, but not means I'm a naughty girl, i just want freedom, they are so annoying with any of my relationship, may be they just give some advisement, but this time i would not follow their ideas, I'm a human, it's all about the sensibility, feelings and a sense of humour, not you say break then i should follow. If the guy i love is rich enough i think they will have different thinking. I understand money is important for future, but the fate wanted you to meet a poor guy then what can u do? If you are really married a rich guy and one day he bankrupts will you stay with him still? Or you leave him and find another rich guy again? I'm a kind of people who is a little bit stubborn and have my own ideas when you try to push me more I'll put up a strong resistance if i think I'm right.

I have a lot of friends have already settled down, so I'm doing thing a decade late. I think i will not have a big white wedding in the future. If the day when I'm getting marry I'll just do a travelling marry planets move around and may be i will not inform them if they still want to control me again!

How would you open the banana?

Have you ever realize how do you peel off the banana skin before you eat? Today i just knew from my boss (Eric), Eric opens the different way where the usual way i open from. Was so funny and curious topic. I inquired all my colleagues about how are they open the banana, they open the same way as me. I always open from the top to bottom, but Eric opens from the bottom to top. He said what will we think the 1st when we see the banana and who will like banana the most? Answer is the monkey. So who is the smartest to open the banana? Eric said is monkey! Because monkeys will hold the head(top) and open from the bottom to top. Haiz...we are human lah...Eric! So, what about you? From the top or bottom?

We say Tomato Juice

I'm not always easy finding time to take care of myself. Especially in oversea. As we know tomatoes are very good for skin. Known from a news about the tomato juice can against the breast cancer. Not means i have breast cancer, i just want to be healthy. So I've bought one to try, ooopsss! Taste is very salty and sour. The color of the juice is very red, like drinking some blood. But anyway this is for healthy, so i will try my best to finish it.

Raining Saunaland

I've ever joined the gym, swimming, yoga and sauna in Malaysia and i given up when i felt bored and lazy. I'm the kind of people who a chilled-out workout, try something sweat-free, like swimming, sauna, gym or yoga. But in Ireland, I've never do... until i find out a fitness center in the town, so i decided to go for gym or sauna at least once a week since last month, but I'm a lazy girl, so... ai... Few days ago, Pualina dated me to go to sauna today. Unlucky that was heavy raining when i was heading to fitness center. Pualina is living quite far away from town, she was wet like chicken after 5 minutes walked out from her house, in Chinese has a sentence called (chicken into the soup), because the rain in Ireland it's no notice before when it's going to rain, so she didn't bring umbrella out and it was sunny 5 minutes ago. In the end, Paulina stay at home alone and me alone at the sauna land, anyway I'm gusty to be alone. I enjoy spending time alone sometime (comfort myself)! Pualina, don be upset, we may date another sunny day.

Midweek meals

Last week I ate a delicious dinner at Indian restaurant. Going into a Indian restaurant which in my town with my colleague (Ah Wai). We were discussing have a European dishes when we were heading to town. Finally we walked through the door of the Indian restaurant. I always look for a sign, what is the delicious meals could i order. Ah Wai has been this Indian restaurant before and he said the food is just generally good. So I didn't expect too much. I've been long time didn't have Indian food, and this is my 1st Indian meals in Ireland after a year. I've ordered my favorite tandoori chicken and cheese nan, and Ah Wai ordered his favorite lamb curry with boil rice. Oops, the food was lovely, gorgeous, and delicious, it was surpassing what i expected. Perhaps that's not as good as Malaysia's Indian food. I miss Malaysia's mamak.

A greatest decision to be happy

When you change the way you look things, the things actually you look at change. We make decisions often everyday, don't you? Some are easy, some are less so, but we know all about taking decisions, and then sticking to them. We might decide to move to another town or city due to fantastic job offer and our career needs, we might decide to quit smoking, we might decide to adventure activity into our life, we might decide to spend more time with our friends, we might decide to spend quality time to our family, or we might decide to do random act of kindness for someone.

And imagine taking a decisions one day to be happy!

The ability to enjoy the life, the ability to be happy is from my point of view, the greatest quality in life. With the one quality our life becomes facto - better, more enjoyable, increasing in satisfaction and daily contentment. What can go wrong, if we have decided - in advance - to always be happy, no matter what?

Imagine waking up in the morning and telling to ourselves, no matter what happens today, no matter who or what does their best to frustrate or anger me, I will not stray from my path of feeling good about my life. No one will have the power to make me leave that path, because I own my own inner power and my own choices. No one or event will because of me to leave that path or give my power away. This means that you correct our feelings, our reactions, at their very inception... in other words, if we notice that something is occurring that is threatening to make us go in another negative direction, we literally decide to choose another alternative at that moment, because we know, we are aware of the fact - that we have this choice.We have the choice because in the end it always depends on we own decisions much more than on absolutely anything else.

Go about our morning, our day, our life with a new decisions to give ourselves the greatest quality in life... deciding to live a contented life... no matter what... simply because we so decide. When we begin today to make the choice to be happy, our life will begin to change today!
