I'm so excited! 
I'm not a dancer but I LOVE a guy with hot abs
and knows how to groove like Chris Brown or Micheal Jackson. 
I'm not saying the dancers in this competition are exactly like them,
but I've heard that our bboys in Sabah are pretty damn good!

Ah Yen : Rest in Peace, my friend.

This year has been filled with many first-time experiences for me. 

how on earth does a dump-waiter(food lift) lose control to the point of killing ur worker!?

A friend of mine and of so many, 
who is widely known as Ah Yen 
died tragically at her workplace 
last Sunday by a dump-waiter (food lift).

Its just this particular first time experience that makes me
feel absolute sadness, some regret and slightly anger.


Absolute Sadness
Why would God take her cruelly away from people whom she loved 
and who we love deeply?

a good daughter and friend indeed.

She was 2 years younger than myself, 
just beginning to live life, just found a loving partner,
and dutifully supporting her family financially. 

read more about her here : [Click Here]

To all her friends, 
she was the one who made us happy 
and takes the time to accompany you when you feel lonely, happy, or sad. 

As i rushed from the Rock Climbing Center to the hospital
after receiving the news on Sunday evening,
all i could do was stop myself from panicking and when i finally made it...
only faces filled with tears,grief, shock and agony at the doorway.

She's passed away minutes before i could make it to the hospital. 
I'm not sure you guys know how a failure i felt at that moment. 
how i should have driven faster, run faster, 
not care about trafficlights or rules.
i could have made it just a few minutes earlier 
to tell her that she should fight on and not leave all of us. 

but no, she left cuz God called her home.
i'm not angry at God.
i never would but, it would be nice if He gave us a sign or something
so we could have spent more time with her.

the last time i had a meal with her.

Rest in Peace, Yen. 
Do not worry about a thing. 
You can finally see your mom once again. :)
She would be so happily proud of you and all of your achievements.
i'm sorry if i ever hurt you.
i pray that you are happy now, that you never need to suffer again.
as friends, i'm so proud to have known u.
Be happy up there and enjoy life with God.
you're finally home.

Regret
While i knew life is short, 
i had a few opportunities to have drinks with Ah Yen
yet i stupidly passed it off. 

Always thinking or coming up with excuses like,
"There is another time for that" 
"Next time la."
"When I'm not so busy next month"

Well, guess what? 
There will be no next time.
I'm so sorry, kawan. 

I learnt my lesson now , i can only pray really hard that i will meet you soon one day
with all of our friends and we'll be laughing together again.

the tears will soon be over, you have showed us that life is truly fragile.
we should cherish one another, forgive and forget bygones.
a friend like you is hard to find but you made it so easy to keep u in our hearts forever.


Slight Angry
I know this might be slightly at the wrong time to feel angry
but i have my reasons.

it says "a famous restaurant"only. what rubbish reporting!


KK is definitely a small town 
but that does not mean that reporters can be paid to not publish the whole story
and withhold the name of the restaurant which caused Ah Yen's fatal end.

NONE OF THE NEWSPAPER would tell us which restaurant.

No one wants an accident. 
but who are you to hide the truth from the public?
Does the public not have the right to know which restaurant 
did not adhere or practice safety in their daily operations?

The Lion King in 3D - Remembering my younger days.

There is something just so magical 
about Disney cartoon movies back in the 90's.
All you late 1980+ babies would definitely agree with me.

I mean, 
HAVE YOU SEEN OTHER CARTOON MOVIES RECENTLY!?
seriously, cartoons like CARS and the Smurfs.
Pfft! Utter rubbish. i cant help but
feel i wasted my time and money watching it. 
Sorry if this is offensive, just my opinion.
Deal with it.

I dont feel the same emotional depth or relativity as the classics,
such as Disney's The Lion King, Pocahontas, Beauty & the Beast...etc

Just goes to show that,
movies now are just all down to marketing and manipulation.


While this movie definitely did not need 3D,
Disney was definitely trying to use a small amount of
manipulative exploitation to bring paying parents back with their kids
merely because of the 3D-technology craze.



I definitely teared up  when Mufasa died.
Gawd... the movie made me miss the good old days 
of being sucha kid about wanting to be Nala! 
hahaha! So embarrassing!

If you've not watched The Lion King before,
you'll definitely love it.

If you've watched it as a kid,
What are you waiting for?

Take a walk down memory lane.
