Boring holiday

Life is so boring this Chinese New Year holiday. Imagine a 4 days holiday and my hubby's working. I don't like it a bit. I love having my hubby at home with us. But, well,that's life. We wouldn't get enough money to pay for appliance bills and monthly payments of our car and home.

We are looking forward for the Maulidur Rasul holiday. 3 days, Friday till Sunday. I hope that after this festive season, our country's economy will grain and expand greatly so everyone will have a comfortable life. To those who loose work, I hope you will soon get a new one to generate your family financially as usual. Thanks to God our country still survive through the turbulenced ( can I apply ).

Homeless To Harvard

I am watching the movie Homeless To Harvard. This is not my first time, because Astro kept repeating the movie these few years. However, I don't mind having to watch it for so many times. This movie is so motivating and touching. The life of Elizabeth is too difficult for me to handle that I think, all these years, I haven't realised how blessed my life is compared to her.

She's hungry and homeless. Fortunately there is this System that helped her grew strong and determined. She realised her potential and didn't ended up in the streets as expected by her grandfather. A hopeless man too. Elizabeth's parents are both drug addicts and are in no condition to raise their children properly. They can't even take care of themselves.

You must watch this movie rather than watching those horror movies which gives no benefit but scare the whole lot of yourself and children.

Not Happy New Year Yet

It's already a month since year 2010 but everything seemed to be in the year 2009 for me. Oh....I am quite tensed because everything's not settled yet. Two years ago were better years for me. Everything settled as scheduled at work. There must be something wrong anywhere.

Sometimes as the worker ant I know I must work as one. Do all the jobs and tasks but it's very difficult to concentrate on my work right now. Two years ago, I managed to finish my jobs and secretarial work on time. Maybe I need to be lest too friendly and talk lest. Because in the end, I am still the one hooked up on it. After all, this is my only income. I hope I can do better this year for my own satisfaction.

Mandarin Orange

This month, mandarin orange will be really famous because of the coming Chinese New Year. Today a chinese colleague bought us a box of orange. We are really happy.

I helped open the box and find that there are some rotten oranges. I took out those. The outside label of the box says its honey mandarin orange but I found the one I took are more sour than sweet.

I don't blame the seller because how was he to know and I really appreciate the oranges. My friend with all her heart bought the oranges and actually chose the one labelled honey. Thanks. I got a boost of vitamin C today. Yes! Vitamin C always comes in the form of sour liquid. Don't laugh at me.

Happy Chinese New Year

Chinese New Year is just around the clock and my chinese colleagues had started applying for leaves. Fortunately, my office is now in an equal blend of races, so no problem for them to get a week leave.

As for me, I'll be expecting my chinese neighbours having a full house in their homes with relatives and siblings gathering together. I will be waiting for the tiger dance around the neighbourhood. Everyone not only chineses will be out of their home to view the tiger dance, home from home. Exciting sight to see everyone getting so interested. My neighbourhood is multi - racial. Been living here for 6 yaers already. No problem.

To all celebrating this Chinese New Year, enjoy yourself. Happy Chinese New Year.
