I wonder why TVB would risk their reporters like that.. need to perform all sorts of act to let us know how strong the typhoon is!

but well, i got to rush home from my friend's house warming... coz' i'll have no bus home once it's T8 at 1130pm...

i could hear the wind outside my window that night... SO STRONG......

It's been half a year since i last blogged...
guess i've become too lazy to blog these days...
Facebook tells all about what's going on in my life...
photos, updating status, writing on one another's wall....

but there're still time when i miss blogging, it's like talking to yourself...
and sometimes it clears your thinking....

hope i'll get more motivation to blog more often.....

Review about 2008?

really almost can't remember what i did in 2007.. so it was quite a quiet one...

It's got to be a very "happening" 2008.. I almost forgot what happened throughout the whole 2008...

too many disasters, unfortunates, accidents...

But overall i guess i had an alright year.. just get sick quite often.. but i really did know more friends, not-so-busy work for 1st half of the year but busy with Association events & admin stuff.. 2nd half of the year was a bit better.. and i actually got a chance to change my job duty.. something new to learn la.. and of coz' building up stronger friendships with all my friends...=)

This year's resolution:
1. Continue slim down
2. Learn more in my new job
3. Travel more
4. Spend more happier times with friends & family

Anyways, this year's NYE is a pretty peaceful one.. Went to Discovery Bay (Lantau Island) for dinner & drinks.. and countdown in this restaurant in front of the TV.. haha~

and for the 1st time.. i was home earlier (3am) than my parents!!! They went to their friend's place for BBQ & mahjong.. i think the mahjong is what kept them going till wee hours.. lol

May all my friends & family have a great 2009!! 

Totally looking forward to this brand new year!!!!

One of the satisfaction of organizing events is to see everyone enjoying it. And this time round, it includes myself.. and I actually had some life-changing thoughts after this event.

Last Sat I organized this Refugee Experience event with a charity organization Crossroads @ Goldcoast, Tuen Mun.

It started at 10.30am in the morning, so I went for a morning breakfast with my colleague at Goldcoast Mcdonald's 1st.. It was such a beautiful day!! *I should try to come out for breakfast on Sat morning more often*



After breakfast, we walked to Crossroads which is opposite of Goldcoast. We had a brief introduction of the organization first. Then we got a general idea of what we will be going through.. 1-hour of Refugee simulation.


Participants face simulated attacks, mine fields where they may be ‘injured’, life in a refugee camp, hunger, illness, lack of education, corruption and uncertain shelter or safety. Participants may also be marched under guard, subjected to ambush and, ultimately, offered a chance of re-settlement where they must re-build their lives.

Age Group: 16 - Adult

Background: Afghanistan

Basic rules for females:
1 - Hair must be covered and not revealed to anyone *covered with scarf*
2 - You cannot talk to any other men other than the men from your immediate family

I got an ID for this 1-hour simulation - Helai, 12-yr-old female, Assets: 0, Health condition: Malnutrition.

We were really ambushed, built our own tent with just a piece of white cloth. and I have to give away all my cash when crossing the border.. and while i was looking for my family after crossing the border, I CAN'T FIND ANY!!! *i guess this happens in reality during chaotic situation...*

So, i just went with any 5 pple.. which ended up like 8pple in the tent. Food rationing - 1 bowl for food & 1 bowl for water for each family, and in my case, my family was overcrowded, i didn't eat much... in the day, i have to go to sch and learn HINDI - nouns, numbers i went for 2 days of lessons and the 3rd day was test!!!! man.. it reminds me of days how the tutor used to be so patient & attentive to each of us and make sure we know everything...

Everything seemed so real as from what i always saw from documentary movies about wars, refugee camps, etc. Even up to the time when there's always someone who will offer to help you flee from the camp. AT THAT MOMENT, I really wanted to go but thinking no one in the family said anything.. *probably immerse into the Afghan culture* I kept quiet, thinking when will this kind of life will end?!
I always thought that I would have done something in this kind of situation, but i guess i'm not that strong yet.

And I have never been happier to hear "The Simulation is OVER."

I was only experiencing this for 1 hour.. really cannot imagine how do people actually go through this for years.

I wish I could do something.

After this simulation, we went to grab a bite at the cafe.. they serve REALLY NICE food~ I love the sausage pie.. IT'S AWESOME!!

then toured a bit around Crossroads before going to the global handicraft shop where items are made by the refugees.


container of stuff to be shipped to the those who are in need... and see how they stuff everything into



After this, my friends and i went for Sham Tsang Goose.. haha~ Not that fantastic.. prob coz' of the economic crisis, no one has been going to eat goose, the goose we had seemed to be re-BBQ from prev day. sigh



And then off we head to Wanchai for foot, shoulder massage, and then to Sharon's place hangout a bit.. and then a GOOD INDONESIAN DINNER... YUMMMMMMMY!!!

A well-spent Sat!!!!

More to talk about what i did on Sun.. But it's time for bed now..

Hope will blog more soon...
