Merry Christmas

It’s so fast a year has passed! This time, last year, it was so different. Many happy and sad things happened but of course, life has to move on. In conjunction of 2012 next year, I decided to really take the opportunity to celebrate this festive season and enjoy every moment of my life to the max.

Look at these presents! Enticing, aren’t them? I wish I could buy more but, I didn’t really get the chance to shop properly. Whenever I go out with friends, well… you just can’t choose the presents in front of the receivers, right?

Though this year, I wrapped the most presents, I kinda regret that I didn’t buy the presents earlier. I could have chosen better presents for my friends. Things just don’t go our way all the times :\

And the miracle of the day is, after so many years… I got a Christmas present :D! I It’s a very beautiful shirt from a good friend of mine. Anyway, the most important thing is someone is being thoughtful :’)!

A Tribute

Gone yet not forgotten, although we are apart, your memory lives within me, forever in my heart. Rest in peace, my dearest grandmother.

Just last two weeks, I lost another of my dearest family members. It is very true that we only know how precious a person is when he or she is gone. Well, I have no more grandparents to love me now… :’(

It would be a lie if I said they hadn’t make a change in my life. My childhood would suck without them. Though it has been some time already, I still cannot get used to living without them.

If only I knew how much it hurts, I would have spent more time of my life being by their sides. If I could share a piece of advice with the world right now, it would be to treasure your beloved ones (or even those around you) while you still can.

I see the world in a different view now. I used to take tiny things, such as my study grades, financial status etc. too seriously. Now, I just wanna chill with my remaining family members and enjoy my life to the fullest.

As I witnessed the ceremonies of the funeral, I felt so fake. Remember this. Money can’t buy love. Neither can hell notes.

Bat Romance (The Making Of)

Well, finally, my broadband is a little kinder to me. Perhaps, because I have been constantly convincing my dad to change to Unifi *rolls eyes*.

Anyway, just wanna brag *ahem* share our happiness behind the camera! :)

Bat Romance (2011)

The video is actually intended for Halloween. Thousand apologies for the delay of release due to some internal problems.

Anyway, better late than never. Let’s cheer up your Christmas with this.. shall I say… epic short film?

Welcome Home

That was intended for Penang, actually. It’s been years since I stepped into the island. This time, however, I came with a heavy heart.

I was worried about my grandma, who was sick at home but, thankfully, the trip was blessed. Anyway, this was our room.

 

The Golden Sands Resort that we had long forsaken.

And the sea I love. 

For those of you who have never/rarely seen me in long skirt and like it, you may keep staring at this photo. I don’t mind actually :)

Another photo of me, on the tree. Yes, for those of you who have never/rarely seen me on a tree, you can also keep staring at this photo :)

Random shots from the sea.

And I visited Penang Hill for the first time in my life, though I have been to Penang for countless times…. 

 

Edited those photos to make ‘em more dramatic! Nostalgic, eh? :D

Took this from Penang Hill too. A winter sensation, eh? Can’t help, it’s Christmas! :D

I took this from a traditional restaurant when we were outta Penang Hill. Too many sepia-toned photos, eh?

Alright, lemme show you some colors of life then.

My Planter’s Punch (left). What’s inside:

Bat Romance (Official Trailer)

Oh, yes, the trailer’s up and the video will be very shortly. I have to apologize for the delay but, I can promise it will be released very soon. Well, at least, within this month. Anyway, enjoy first, scold me later :)

Scams or Sarcasm?

I still remember my parents telling me not to talk to strangers but then, ended up they scolded me for not helping when someone asked me for directions. I guess your parents have too, warned you enough of scams going around the city.

People steal phones by pretending to borrow them, steal wallets by pretending to ask for directions and the list goes on. Ironically,  I don’t know why, I was/am always tested in life, in all sorts of situation.

Just recently, when my dad and I was waiting for my grandma in the hospital, an old woman came up to us, asking to help her to call her family to pick her up. I heard a voice whispering in my brain, “Beware of scams… beware of scams…”

Fine, it wasn’t so dramatic but, I was definitely fueled with doubts. I just remained silent as she talked with my dad. I only used mine to call when my dad said that his phone was out of battery. I still could not block the doubts out because I have heard a lot of these.

Anyway, she wasn’t evil and even offered to give me a few bucks, which I refused. I felt great but too, sorry for my evil thoughts about her. And this evening, I was tested for a second time.

I was stopped by a stranger the moment I stepped into a convenient shop, asking me to help him. Initially, I was surprised and I wished I could turn away but, that would look so bad. So I went on buying the thing I wanted. He asked me where were we. I told him the name of the place then, he asked me to talk to a fellow in the phone.

This time, my doubts doubled because I was alone. I suspected it a scam because he could have asked the shopkeeper.  Initially, I didn’t know what to do because he just passed me the phone without saying anything to the caller.

But soon, he took back the phone and talked to the caller before passing it back to me. I talked with the fellow and showed the man in the shop the directions. I was happy to help again. Yes, it happened that my heart is the most hazardous scam of all… =.=
