i can see clearly now the haze has gone....well, i wish i could sing that song longer.
unfortunately, the clear blue skies and the rolling mountains were only visible for one day- friday.
it rained heavily in the morning and when the sun came out again in the middle of the morning, it was sooo beautiful. everyone missed the blue skies and the fresh crisp air as they gazed out of the windows. today, it is back to hazy day.

drove to ipoh on friday and i did enjoy the scene all the way because of the hues of colours suddenly visible.

harry potter and the half-blood prince was the order of the day....and yesh! i was soo glad that the review was right this time around. this movie was marvelous although it has nothing much to offer in view of the plot development. but the director managed to make it an exciting and dark movie nonetheless and i enjoyed the 155 minutes in the cinema. yup, it is longer than transformer 2 but heck, it din feel that long. sorry transformer, you lost. it took a while for me to get back into the story but i could still remember traces of them. those who din read the book might have a harder time following the movie. i can't wait for the final installments. they have to be good. i want it to be good. twilight saga can never beat this potter franchise on the silver screen. go potter!

and oh, it was sort of a belated birthday celebration for me from queen. i got free dinner, free movie and gift. ain't bad eh.

only the two of us and we ordered 3 slices of cheese cake. crazy leh?? how am i going to burn off those calories>?? yoghurt cheese, lemon cheese and rasberry cheese. my favourite- yoghurt cheese. will simply melt in your mouth. tg malim will have a secret recipe restaurant soon. so die lah...do they have vip card??

chicken cordon bleu....both of us shared this one.

and this is the gift, a torch light key chain. my carkeys are now hanging in the ring.

this is the light from the torch.

last but not least, a postcard from audrey. the rest dun be jealous ah. all the way from cambridge. such a sweet woman. thanks so much. makes me remember the time i was in cambridge. miss mathew should remember as well. i remember i bought postcards of almost the same view in different seasons. as for those arms, i bought a tee-shirt for jiaen with all those arms printed on it. do you still have the tee??

one more thing i remember about the trip....one of those college facilitators who is a filipino. i can't remember his name but i can still remember how he looks. cute and big...with a girlfriend though. miss mathew- what's the name??

those were the days.

will i make a trip down to memory lane?? i doubt it. it is not in the plan at the moment. money's not enuf and pounds are also rising.

moving on to blow a little trumpet. i managed to produce a piece of chinese poetry which is presented in duet form by two 13-year-old boys today. gosh, i dunno how to read their script, and yet, it is a success. someone came to me and said that it was the best performance among the 4 shown. waakakakakaa....kembang! of course i got help from others.

when i first approached those in the chinese dept with the idea, someone said it wouldn't work with the quality we have. i refused to budge and i found myself my two rumbustious kids, someone else found me the script and voila, the training started.

they have become instant celebrities now i guess. even the bosses gave them a pat on the shoulders and one came to me and expressed her disbelief that i could do it. wahahaha.....

okok....do not be too affected by triumph or disaster as stated in if by kipling. i got it.

good night.
