Pre-Hong Kong Trip Excitment
I'm thrilled at the thought of travelling. It have been a good one year since I travelled for vacation, and yes! I cannot hide my excitement! It's less than 2 months, and i will be in the land of dim sum.
In many ways, Hong Kong is very similar to Singapore. The fast pace, packed city, people, etc. Not a huge fan of Hong Kong but oh wells, it's affordable, suitable for a short get away, convenient and accessible. Hello to Victoria Peak (again), Disney Land, Big Buddha, Dim Sum, Wanton Mee and Cha Chaan Teng!
Done some research and here's the list of places to be visited during the trip.
MUST EAT DIM SUM
MUST EAT WANTON MEE
MUST EAT CHA CHAAN TING
Finally there's something to look forward to. There's something to be excited for. There's sometime to take ourself out of the picture of reality.
There's something mystical about travelling. It feels awesome to be in a foreign country, do anything you wish, don't mind being surrounded by judgemental looks. Not forgetting the cool weather!

2 Day; Bangkok
2 days in Bangkok, how much can you do in such a short time frame, especially so when meetings took up half of your time.
Nonetheless, still managed to shop till I dropped. Comparing to my last BKK trip, I tried much more street food this time round.
Fried Quail Eggs
Coconut ice cream - fried quail eggs - sweet creme crepe - mango sticky rice
Have been hearing so much positive feedbacks about After You cafe and finally, it's my turn to try it! The Shibuya Honey Toast was awesome, with just the right amount of sweetness of the vanilla ice cream and generous amount of butter in the toast; crispy on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside. HOW COULD YOU RESIST SUCH TEMPTATIONS! Best of all, it's not expensive, cost around 135 Baht! Cheap/ good/ big portion .. what's more could you ask for!?
Next up, if you are a big fan of roast duck then you gotta try Four Seasons! They have the best roast ducks in the world, even myself, who doesnt fancy ducks, love it too. The meat is so so so tender (doesnt taste like the usual tough duck meat) and accompanying it is the savoury black sauce which taste a tinge of sweetness. As far as i know, there's only 4 outlets in the world, namely London, Bangkok, Shanghai and Singapore. You've gotta try it, and you will definitely love it!
With this, i shall conclude my journey in BKK.

Tough Times Dont Last, They Are The Vitamins for The Minds - They Make You Stronger
Appreciate what you have, even when times are difficult. It's the process, and I am very sure that I will be very thankful for the opportunity given to me at the end of everything. :) Thursday, May 21, 2015, 5:29 AM
Anyone Has Similar Thought Before?
Recently has been feeling rather depressed and upset. Not too sure since when did I became so bothered about the positions/ hierarchy and money matters.. My first ever thoughts of wanting to climb up the corporate ladder so badly, wanting to earn more money, wanting to get acknowledgedthi. On the other hand, SEA Games is really coming to an end. :( I will miss this journey even though i have been complaining since the start. Suddenly missing my participants. Hope they will grow and learn something through this journey. Last 5 sessions with them! =) Saturday, May 16, 2015, 8:18 PM
Choices
My day started early with the Team Young NTUC Volunteers at NTUC SilverAce Centre. We played interactive games, colouring activities and lunch with the elderly. What I liked best was the warmth emitted by everyone present. There's no ranks nor positions, everyone just wanted to give their best and give happiness to another person, especially the elderly.
Straight after that, went back to Tampines, get changed and rush down to HQ for SEA Games training. I must say that whenever there's human contacts, there will be human revolution, and I'm proud to say that I won over my fundamental darkness.
"It may seem easier to remain closed off in our private world. But we will not grow as a person Alone and isolated, our true potential cannot shine. Interaction with other enriches our lives." - Daisaku Ikeda
As much as I enjoy being in my own world, I couldn't deny the fact that this quote is the reality. I'm glad that the nature of my work and the religion I'm practising enable me to keep polishing myself, bettering myself day after day.
To conclude, yesterday was an enriching and fulfilling day. A day which I had many self-realisation moments. Even though it was a Saturday and a rest day for many. Despite getting rest, I started working at 9.30am and only ended at 12 midnight. This could mean having a "rest day" wasted, but if you resolved to make every single moment a value-creating one, then every moment is a pleasure.
It's a choice. :)
Last but not least, presenting you my first ever video made from iMovie - My JBU Experience *Touched on it in the previous post*. :)

A Wake Up Call
Glad to know that my old blogposts still exist! Reading some of those old posts makes me feel like I'm 18 again, when all i cared about was K-pop dramas and boy bands. Read more » Sunday, February 07, 2010, 9:01 AM
I'm the best improved/progress student for dance! OMG! I'm over the moon, you will never understand how i feel. It's like something you always wanted to do, something you once thot that it's impossible in your hands, something that people laughed at when you told them your affection towards it but now, you've got acknowledged. |
