Ooppss...you did it again!

Yesterday night, while watching TV aft dinner at FIL place, it suddenly blackout for 2 seconds, then electric recover. After that we decided to go, Brandon went SPK fitness aft he dropped me at KLCC to do shopping. Once I get into the KLCC entrance, eeii..how come so many ppl standing outside the entrance and shops are all closed? That time was only 7.45pm, shops entrance are blocked.. only corridor have lights are on, then only I realized..is blackout for the building…my goodness hotspot also kena blackout incident…why TNB did again?…many ppl are waiting and lofting outside…so I just walk around and stand here n there, waiting for the electricity recover. After half an hour waiting, partially shops electricity recovered, so they re-open their doors for business again, then I still waiting for Isetan to re-open. Yesterday was Isetan seasons end sales, start from 22nd – 30th June. I faster get in to buy some stuff for travel, a sling bag, MNG shirts (up to 50%-70% sales ya!), undiess, belt and also renew IMC card. While blackout, ppl who look aft their shop entrance are busy explaining to their customer for the incident.

While wondering around during blackout I heard a lot of tourist and also local ppl complain about the incident. My first impression was how come no backup generator and make it cause whole world stop? hhmm…TNB need to review what they are doing…not once but many times…are they doing their work?? Dunno….

This morning open up paper read the special edition about KL big blackout, it cause by one of the electric generator/ transmission house burn and blackout at Bkt. Bintang area. Many shoplots at that area are closed early and lost business as that incident happen is peak hour at night…it takes 2 hours to recover…this incident cause TNB lost of 500 million, well what about others??

While driving back from KL partial highway also blackout, and at MRR2 near to Sri Petaling, we saw ur side like blackout also, and we thought that tonite we need to sleep without fan tonight…eei..who knows we not kena…ohh…good..sweet dream…

Get set

Yesterday aft work, went again to the tour office to get back our passport with Visa stamped, free gift towel and travel bag and also the information the exact time of depart and return…

Since few days ago, I already start packing up, buy all the necessary stuff and check on the weather forecast from Internet. Besides that I also ask more about the place there, like where the tour guide likes to bring you to buy things, where can buy, where not worth to buy and also place to visit and etc…yeah although the brochure there written all in detail for each day, but exact scene is not that wonderful, get to know more as a pre-caution. All this I asked from my schmate, she was ex-tour guide from Marco Polo…

Just check, in Beijing is Summer season, the weather highest 37’C and lowest 23’C. Hot than KL, humidity 34%, while KL is 74%. Means dry n hot there…^_^ and go further on check for coming 5 days weather forecast was, weather cool down, and it is rainy day n storm…goodness!!!…hope this won’t gonna be true, coz I try tally the KL forecast with our current weather it was not that accurate too…

Seems like I quite excited to go, counting down the day…5 more days to go as this is my first time go on International flight…my target of this trip, is to do some shopping, not on local product but on some branded accessories, hope I got time to make it…of coz most important we can find the way…gonna read more info about it..

Happy Father's Day!

"Happy Father Day" to all dad in the world and also my dad-in-law and daddy. Both of our parent celebrate it together in a Chinese restaurant during lunch time yesterday. Both of us give father a small gift. 10 of us, we spend 2 hours eating there. It is so nice that have everyone there, looking at them happily chatted.

3 weeks I didn’t saw my dad already, coz during the time I back home he was not there, today saw him looks older a bit liow…Pa! stay more healthy and strong for the coming year, as I still got many things in my life wan to share with you…I’m sure you can make it yea…I wan you to look more younger than today…hehe..a bit high expectation…currently my dad still working, he is a taxi driver for almost 20 years attached to a radio taxi company…age 59 this year..everyday he start work early in the morning at 5.30am and finish work in the evening. Now he work more relax, not like last time when we r kid he need to strive for more income to survive the family. Now we all are grown up and can feed ourselves, he slow down a lot. For the past years I working outside, he fetch me everyday aft work no matter sunny or rainy days. He never turn us down, he support whatever we do and he working very hard for my year study in college. Once I need anything he will try to look for me..without worries he will make it for me…Dad you are great, you are fantastic!

He is a humorous dad, likes to joke wit us, u can’t find a single strict face on him, he likes to make everyone around him laugh and happy. That’s why whenever his friend got problem he will try to offer his help if he can. Sometime he tells us story of his daily customer and those funny funny customer he pick…even got once a customer compliment him thru The Star paper for his good did…he likes to make fren with his regular customer. He is a non-smoker, loves planting, drawing, singing and eating.

Every dad scarifies a lot for his children, as the same to mum. Dad always who are the one humble and do not like to show off his feeling and he do things quietly behind just for the sake of everyone at home is not hungry and sheltered. That is Daddy.

Dad, I’m proud to be ur daughter and thank god that He send me His guardian angel. I don’t know how to repay u for all the loves and cares, do hope that for the coming year, I’ll love you more and more….and let all the good memories store in you for the years coming….


my dad in white (taken during farewell dinner with Rev. Ang)
Birthday con't...

Andrew Chai – 18/6 – 4.51pm (in UK)
Hey 'happy birthday' finally we r same age now? Haha...How u celebrate? Anyway enjoy ur weekend n hear from u soon!


That was the last sms I got from my mobile...Thank you all of ur remembrances on my special day...and not forget shirlyn n Steph from Via comm :) God bless all of u...

In the evening, I cooked a simple dinner while waiting Brandon back from work, before he reached home he called me and ask me to dress up and he will brought me to the TVB8 Live concert (by various artist) at Bintang Walk. At first I though we can't make it coz cannot get the ticket elsewhere...so since he got it at last minute then we decided to go..I quickly took a shower n dinner then we go...

Imagine 60 thousands ppl (dunno whether is correct, Fish Leong said one..) packed at Bintang Walk, watching a concert, only VIP can sit all others r stand…very pack and very hot, we manage to reach there 20 min later with a lil jam at my area…ticket written start at 7pm, end up start at 8.30pm..waited for so long…this is culture…free things won’t b on-time…is ok..used to it…

When it start ppl are more and more…Youth and Sports Ministry hav a short speech for opening. The purpose of this concert is ‘Say no to drugs’. Hacken Lee start of the night singing 2 songs and he manage to bring up the crowd…scream and ho haa...here n there…followed by Fish Leong sing 3 songs, then when 3 malay singer coming up, I also dunno who r they, then those ppl down there start to show dun like and the crowd ho haa also stop….the show continue with various Taiwan, HK, China and Malaysia singer to perform. The flow of the whole concert is very slow…can’t wait other of my fav singer come up, we can’t stand the anymore the pack n humid …so we went home before the concert end around 10.30pm..

So, this is how my year 2005 - 26th birthday passed. Although no cake, no big celebrate, I still treasure it with all ppl who cares me and also can b with my love one is more important than many other things…

Lastly, my simple birthday wishes…Brandon love me more and more, mummy and daddy hav a healthy body, and also everybody in peace.

Tian Hong & Phaik Li



Last Saturday (4th June) went to Penang to attend my ex-colleagues’s wedding…Due to Alice (my ex-supervisor) fall sick early in the morning, so we go a bit late, we manage to start our journey at 11am...All the way at the highway was going very slow and some part even traffic jam…aft 6 ½ hours in the car finally reach Penang at 5.30pm, the City Bayview Hotel where the dinner held and also the place we stay. Dinner at 7pm. Thought the wedding dinner culture is different from KL, who knows also the same at KL start at 8.30pm…Foods some ok some average…The dinner to me is like a gathering with old colleagues and some colleagues who left the company before me…we just chit-chat n exchange our recent life…at the dinner karaoke section was prepared for us and also some songs from the karaoke MC…we do snap some photo with the bride..she was so busy..got to change 3 costume…Penang kia all are in Hokkien ..poor me…I dunno Hokkien…so always hav to ask May what they / MC saying…hahaha……everythings end at 11am…by the time very sleep and tired also…actually got intention to go to the pub behind the hotel to have some drinks…but seems like everyone wan to rest early for the next day..so everybody rest early…I have a good slept there, but my poor friend can’t really sleep well…

The next day, too nice to sleep until we can’t enjoy much on the breakfast buffet …we took a lil bit then hav to rush to bride’s house…Bridegroom reach at 9.30am and he was so excited to catch her bride…until he and those heng dai can’t really eat the light refreshment for them…so lets see what the ji mui prepared for them….(I’m one small part of them..no leading in negotiating) Got a rule here, before starting must be “No Hokkien” very funny, once they speak hokkien have to eat 1 slide of plain bread, mainly cos those ji mui dunno hokkien…

1. Heng dai have to finish a loaf of bread….so they distribute to each other…the bread is nothing…plain one, but they only can finish it without drinking water.
2. Sing song, sing it loud until the bride satisfied it…poor bridegroom dunno how to sing song, but he also very co-operate to sing it..with a heng dai leading beside him…
3. Eat spring roll without using hand, thinks that easy, the heng dai very shy to do it…but it is very fun..we ji mui laugh n laugh. Both heng dai start bitting one end and eat toward going each other and kiss in the center part…very funny also..
4. Then, go upstair. Bridegroom hav to used his lip to kiss a love shape on a piece of paper, with his lip apply lipstick to it…
5. Later, hav to find where is the brides, there was 3 rooms up there….we won’t lead him to the correct room, he have to select the room by slotting in the love lips down the door, to ask the bride whether she like it or not…so I’m the one to push back the paper to let him know, she dun like it…without open the door…so he went to other room to check…he also dunno whether he got the correct room until I came out from the “no bride room” to ask him, where u go, ur wife is here!!…then he was so excited to came over to check, who knows that was his flower gal…haha…kena fool…
6. Q & A time, then again sing a song “Tell Laura (Phaik Li) I love her”

That’s how the ji mui let him in….tang..tang..tang..tang..another friend is married… Penang wedding culture, they got 2 wedding car, guy 1 car n girl 1 car, with their own ppl…when they are leaving to bridegroom’s house..
After she go, around 11am we travel came back to KL. On the way back quite smooth, no jam nor slow down, we even go in to Ipoh old street to taste the Ipoh Sar Hor Fun, Ipoh tau geh, rojak and popiah as our lunch. Safety reach KL at 17:20.

They called up and said the fees have to be increase due to the air-plane petrol price raised lately…hhmm…this 8D Beijing trip will cover Beijing, Tianjin and Chengde…tour fee per person is around RM 1430 (sorry I forget the exact amount) …just heard one of our customer (he also using the same travel agency, tour fees more expensive than us), he told us that he not satisfied with the trip, in the sense of the hotel they stayed were all 3 stars and only a night is staying at 4 stars….more terrible that there was a night one of the hotel they stayed do not on the air-con for whole the hotel, which he said was very torturing and terrible…now is the summer time…currently the weather is 17’C-25’C. Hopefully ours one will not experienced what happen to him and of coz I will get ready of what will happen…food wise he said everyday almost the same, nothing so special…and he have get bored of it…hhmm…well…may b my time will b or have something different…if I come back later with complains means this tour agency is our first and last…the tour agency name is Best Holiday at Wisma Cosway.

Before I left Synovate, I have help my church gal – Chris, to submit a resume to the development company at Merana IGB (2 floors downstair of my office)…today she finally get the job…as the day I helped her to pass the resume, I saw there was a lot of big envelope job application…actually I know she was not having high hope on those application, but I kept on encourage her to try and also pray hard to all her application. At last God heard her prayer, after 3 months waiting (or more I think), at the same time got 2 companies offer her the job she applied and she finally have selected the job in Menara IGB….God really did something on her, as she need a job not far from where she stay, precise her own profession and also high pay (this what she really want, as I know she got many commitments) …so finally she got it...in the process of getting this job, she have been thanks me for many many times…well, Chris..I’ve done nothing…is God he looked aft you…Hopefully u will working happily there and be friend to all of them… yeah may b at work u r kinda cool…dun put too much preasure on urself…do ur part and the satisfaction will be there…all the best to u and remember keep smiling :) got time do come to Bukit Jalil visit visit me or perhaps we go for a drink, k?….
