Dawn Rising Sun

When I was sleeping last night, I felt something past across my body and I just wiped it away from me. Then, I hoped that I could continue to sleep in a moment, but I just couldn't make it. Finally, I decided to root cause who is my weird passanger. After I turend on my light, I just found that was a cockroach beside my bed. Oh no!!! I hoped that I just didn't know this, it was a a BIG cockroach with a LONG antennae, what should I do? How can I get it away? I was panic. Kill it? No, I stopped killing since my secondary school (but I am still a carnivore, haha I am conflict here :P), even though there is an annoying mosquito, I would try not to kill it, unless it is too annoying that I couldn't stop to give it a clap (haha... conflict again :P). How? How? What should I do? I was panic and looking for a weapon to chase it away from my room. And finally I found a leaflet on my desk, then I just grabbed it without a second thought and batted it through my bedroom's door. Wa...

Actually, I am feeling quite sad today because it's nearly end of October and the daylight saving will come to the end by this Sunday, which is 1st of November, that means gap between SL and I would be larger. Before this, SL and I would chat through messanger every night for 1.5 hours, that we could see each other every night, and he starts teaching me some knowledges on job related recently. However, this won't be happened after daylight saving ends, because I would need to stay later or he would need to wake up earlier, therefore we decided to cancel our weekdays chatting and we will chat weekly, this makes me suddenly felt sad, I hate daylight saving ends so fast. Thereafter, our daily meeting would become weekly meeting, then from seven days down to two days a week, I am just suddenly felt unhappy of this. Anyways, I think this buy me sometime on self study, maybe I could sleep earlier than before to keep my condition good. Due to some sad emotion, I just thought out a poe...

27th of September was our first year wedding anniversary, that we held our wedding anniversry at the same day on 2008. Since SL still in US, we had started talking about our celebration of the day, that where do we want to have our dinner and how do we spend our day together. On the morning, SL and I went for breakfast and went toward to Botanical Garden for a walk there, because we hope to spend our time on doing some normal activity that we did before seperation, so that we could feel more appreciated on our relationship even though we would be seperated again. While we were walking in the Botanical Garden, we talked a lot and shared a lot, that I just felt we backed to the time before seperation. This seperation is different with our last seperation, that I don't really feel difdicult to catch up with him as last time, I think marriage bond two people together even though they need to be seperated, their relationship would still be there. Morning session at Botanical Garden Memo...

This afternoon, I had tea break with some good friends in company cafe, there I knew about a lady in my company, who had similar experience as me, that her husband was relocating to another country for a year in past. Then, the lady decided to take long leave and followed his husband there, she is a brave lady because she was willing to give up her career for her loved one, actually I felt respect to her. When I was in decision making situation, I was hesitated to choose give up any of them, therefore I chose to stay in Malaysia when SL was going for relocation at half year ago because I think eight months wasn't too long for us and we should be able to go through those tough period. However, I would choose to follow him if seperation is longer than a year, as I know that is our limit. When situation comes to selection, I think girl always is the one who sacrified herself for her family, actually I don't like this because this is really unfair to girl, why can't girls keep ...

Saturday of 26 September, SL and I had our first two-people world weekend for his home trip, that we woke up early morning for his motor delivery backed to Johor, because we won't use the motor for next year. However, there were some unhappy incident happened during his motor delivery, like he filled up too much fuel and his brake jammed, then he needed to fix them before delivered it. Fortunately, everything went well finally, else I think SL would be angry for quite some time. Later, we had our breakfast for "dim sum" at Abu Siti Lane, this is what SL required to taste because he didn't take this type of Chinese for long time. Further on, we went for singing at Red Box, this is another activity that we missed out for quite some time. Thereafter, we watched a movie in Gurney Plaza, which is "Where Got Ghost?" from Neo Studio. Actually, I was with high expectation on Neo's movie, but this movie is just too bad to watch, it wasn't good at all, and eve...

This morning, I was attending a class from company, it is something about how do we face changing situation in our live and work, the class was so interesting that we could get involved in some activities that helped us to learn team work, decision making, communication and so on for our daily life. That is a thing really correct from the instructor, that e-mail actually is the most useless and dangerous tool for communication, which face to face is the best channel. Also, the instructor mentioned that many people are afraid of change and uncertainty, therefore management is playing an important role to avoid miscommunication from up to down. During the game, I got to learn something that team work, communication, good leadership and strategy planning are really important, that only can build a good team among us. At the end of class, the instructor told us about resilience, that mean be able to quickly return to a previous good condition, that he shared us a vidoe on how a person lost...

Friday of 25 September, YH had a lunch gathering at his new house at the Spring, this is an IJM project at Jelutong Highway, which every unit of the block is abled to see the see view of different directions. While I walked into YH's house, I was attracted by his wall painting, that was painted by YH and his wife, they were having some special pattern on their wall, this made the house looks different and more beautiful. From their painting, I found that is a good idea to paint one of the wall with different colour (either lighter colour or darker colour), and the other three with the other colour from same series, this would make the house looks nice. Yes, it is really nice. Apart from its high maintainance fee, I personally think it is quite a beautiful place, an IJM project would promise its quality. Besides house warming, we also celebrated birthday of three friends together with candle blowing, it really was a pleasure gathering.

Stephenie Meyer is famous with her four books of Twilight Saga - Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse and Breaking Dawn, MS and LE watched the movie of twilight that they loved the story so much, this really made me wondering if twilight is really that nice. One day, I went to a bookshop and saw "the host" is a book from Stephenie Meyer too, then I just chose it as my first Stephenie Meyer reading, instead of twilight, because I would like to see if her new book "the host" would be worth enough for me to own the four books of twilight saga. Finally, I have completed reading "the host" today and I would like to say that I really love Stephenie's story, I think she is a good literature writer and good story teller, that I really adicted so much in the story around Wanderer with Melanie(main character of the host). "the host" is a story about invasion of alien to the earth, which aliens live like a soul, that they need to have a host body for keeping the...

I am reading a book from Stephenie Meyer recently, "the host", there is a kind of alien in the book, they live like a soul and they need to have a host (human body, plants, animal, insect or any creatures) to keep them living, their lives are transferred from a host to another host, therefore they can live up to many lives as long as that they could live in a healthy host and be transfer before their host has been destroyed. And Wanderer is a soul in the book and she is the main character in the book, that she had been transferred for nine lives before she started with a human's host, that she had been travelling among nine different planets until she came to the earth. Why is she a wanderer? Normally, a soul would travel for just 2 to 3 planets, then they would settle down at the favourite planet forever, there they would transfer from host to anothe host in the same planet. But, Wanderer wasn't settled down even she had been traveling among nine planets. Sometimes, ...

After long Raya holidays and visa interview, I started working on Thursday, which was my first working day during SL's home trip and I honorly had SL been my driver to office. Before we went to office, SL and I took our breakfast at the famous "baked bread" near to airport, but we couldn't see the crowd as usual, this might because of long holidays. Then the joke started when SL dropped me at my company building, that I need to say, I usually put my office bag at rear seat, therefore I need to open the rear door to get my bag first before I could go to office. However, SL didn't wait for me to do that but he just drove the car away after I left the car =.=" There I tried to wave my hand to stop him, but he didn't notice the tiny me :( Fortunately, I met a friend (SC) at company's lobby, that he played joke on my funny experience :P but he still borrowed me his handphone to call SL backed to ofiice, until then I just couldn't stop laughing on this....

During SL's home trip, we watched 5 movies in total within two weeks, because cinema rate in US is high, that SL didn't want to spend too much money on entertainment, we only watched "Transformer" together in US. "The Final Destination" is our first movie for SL's home trip, this is the fourth of Final Destination series, the story is more or less similar with the first three movie, which talking about a gang of people successfully escaped from a huge disaster, but their lucky don't last longer where they faced death just after the disaster one after one. Well, story of "The Final Destination" is not new to us already, and the movie's selling point is more on how those people died, but those scences were too bloody to me until I (personally) cut them automatically during that moment (by holding SL's and my hands just right in front of my eyes), then I got the detail from SL's description. For me, this is just a horror movie, tha...

I had a good weekend this week that I really need to thanks YY a lot, because she is willing to spend a lot of time with me for these two days, I didn't have my lunch and dinner alone for the days. On Saturday, YY and I visited KS's family at Greenlane, that I finally could see KS's 13-months old son, CC (it was really hurt to hear CC recognised me as auntie :P). We spent quite some time in KS's house until we have had our dinner there, thanks for KS's hospitality :) During our visit, CC was so nice and obedient, that he kept smiling to us and energetic that walking here and there, I personally think that he is pretty good in walking now though he fell down sometime, but he managed to get up by himself. There are a lot of discussion in KS's house about parenting and housing, that KS told us that baby cannot take salt until 2 or 3 years old becuase their kidneys are not developed properly yet, therefore taking salted food might hurt them, I think that we really n...

We reserved the day after the long holiday (23 September) for our visa interview appointment, so that we could go to America Embassy at Kuala Lumpur from Muar with my in-laws, this would be the best arrangement because we could take them together in case that they couldn't get in correct direction. Our reservation time was 8:20am, but we arrived to KL by 6:30am because we thought it would be trafic jam on the way to KL that we departed at 4am, but trafic was smooth all the way. After arrived, SL took a short break in the car as he didn't sleep much at the night before. After the short break, we headed to America Embassy at around 7:45am, just after the first session appointment, the procedure was similar with my last visa interview, that we need to get a visitor badge at the guard, then went through with two layers of security check, then we just got into the Embassy office. When we were in the Embassy office, we needed to go through with three steps for our queue number to be ...

During SL returned his hometown, we spent a day to visit my hometown in Kota Tinggi, for getting some books and winter clothes from my home, then I also can catch up with my family, especially my brothers and my younger sisters. Perhaps that I didn't see and communicate with them for long time, that I found that my youngest brother has been growing up that fast and more thoughtful. My youngest brother is at his 16 years old now, but he has planned so much further for his future "business", yes, he wants to be a businessman, that he wants to open a lot of shops and he is working hard for now to gather as many information as possible for his future planning, well my mother will be his invester, then he will be the "CEO" :P After knowing my youngest brother's ambition, I really couldn't believe that he is such a good future planner, because what I was doing during my age 16 just studying for getting a better job in future, but he is thinking on how to earn ...

Due to SL backed to Muar directly just after he arrived to Penang, therefore he didn't have chance to take an US visa photo in Penang, which I believe Penang photographer would be more experience on taking US visa picture. Then, we just went to the biggest studio in Muar for his picture taken at the day of his arrival, that we thought they would know more or less on the spec. However, we found that the studio did some touched up on SL's face after we got the picture, which I just found that SL became handsome in the photo. Well, there is not allowed for any touch up on visa photo, so that we returned to the studio and requested them to retake another picture for him without any touch up, and they are willing to do that. There was another problem on the photo again when SL was checking on his visa application documents, that the studio has his and my in-law's faces were oversize as given from US visa photo specification. Again, we visited the studio for another time on reque...

SL was back for home trip during Raya time (which is new year of Muslim), there we backed to his hometown, Muar for gathering with the parents since he hasn't backed home for long while. During the first day of Raya, our family is going to visit SL's youngest uncle in Melacca for the new year celebration, because they are Muslim. When I was in the youngest uncle's house, I just saw some harmony environment between Chinese and Malay married family. In my family stream, that I couldn't find any history of mixture marriage, but it happens in SL's, which I could tell that love is really without boundary. Actually, there is a story behind the youngest uncle, there he was fallen to some weird disease when he was in his university time, that made him suffered a lot and couldn't concentrate on his study. When his family was not aroun with him, that was a muslim girl (our current youngest auntie) took care of him everyday and she took him to a wizard (well, medical wasn...

This evening, when I was ready to go for dinner with YY and MS, I just recieved a message from SL, that he told me he is sleepless again and sick now, but when I tried to reply him through msn, I just couldn't get it signing in, this made me really worried on his condition. Therefore, I decided not to join YY and MS for dinner and backed home straight a way. When I just backed to home, I fortunately successfully signed in to messanger, but I saw SL offline with a note stated that he is sick. Then, I just made him a call to check is he is better, however I think it is better for him to sleep more to recover his energy. After half year of seperation, SL and I both are healthy until now he fell to sick, I am so sad that I can't take care of him by his side, he is sleepless for last few nights due to jet-lag, I think this weaken him a lot, hopefully he will become better soon. SL, please take care of yourself.

18 September is our second reunion, that SL would be back to Malaysia for 2 weeks, well two weeks actually is too short for both of us, but it is good enough for a seperated couple, we were long waiting for the day. On the reunion Friday, I was so absendminded for my whole day, that I couldn't concentrate much and kept counting minutes by minutes on SL's flight arrival, which would be at night. At night, I kept track with Cathay Pacific website for SL's flight status to make sure that he would arrive on time or even earlier, then I left my house at 8 o'clock to pick up SL from airport. However, it was raining when I left my house and this made me felt sad beacause I don't like travel during raining. Luckily, rain was stopped at my arrival to airport, then I decided to park my car at the carpark to welcome SL at the arrival hall. Actually, I spent a lot of time at finding a parking lot at carpark, this made me worried if I missed the chance to wait for SL. Finally, I...

Once again, I back to alone this morning after two weeks of reunion with SL, SL is taking his flight back to US for his work. Happily, we don't really have big arguement for last two weeks, that we were always happy to be together, also we celebrated our first wedding anniversary on 27th of September and spent our time together for Mid Autumn Festival yesterday. Really, it is the perfect reunion timing for last two weeks, I am happy with our reunion planning as we have calculated our time percisely :) Well, I am still sad for our third seperation, but it wasn't as sad as last two because we have faith that we will meet again in short future and won't be seperated long after that, I think I would be pretty busy on preparation for our next grand reunion, that won't allow too much sad emotion on this. Here I really wish that everything can go as smooth as possible, we don't really hope for any bad surprise.
