Chinese New Year tradition. Change new stuff to welcome better year, better luck. So I started to use my new wallet. The most expensive wallet I ever purchased for myself. But not much different from outer appearance compare to old wallet.

This year CNY feel more peaceful and boring then any previous year. Maybe coz I show my black face too much. So almost no relative ask me about my gf. They direct their curiousity to my mom though. And say my Facebook show I have GF. Haiz.... So naive and childish. Internet can be trust meh.....

Crazy Little Thing Called LOVE.....

爱情让人成长， 但爱情也让聪明的人变蠢。

也许是有目标，有想要的东西，所以人会思考如何达到目标。

思考让人成长。

爱情也让人做很多傻事。应为爱情让人不懂得用理智。

我做过很多很傻的事。

买了礼物想送给“她”， 却没送出。

晚上睡觉前傻傻的send SMS 或 Message 给她。 然后等到她回复才去睡。看到回复就傻笑。 看不到就失望的去睡觉。。。。。

这个周末， 我在家看着“求婚大作戰”。 看着男主角每次都考虑很多。时机，地点，当时状况。最后错过了表白。 看着青梅竹马的女主角和别人结婚。 我觉得男主角很想我。 考虑那么多，最后什么都没有。 愛情沒有如果。錯過就真的不能来過。 回到过去？ 穿越? 那是电影桥段而与。 

为什么突然那么感触？因为我送不出的礼物有多了一份。 日本买的浴衣。

不知这件衣会不会找到主人。 愿意收我的礼物。 愿意穿它。

Back from a 9 days trip to Tokyo. Will write a full travel blog later but first a few things to take note.

1. Tokyo or I should say Japan is full of place to spend money. You will enjoy it if you are loaded with cash. For shopaholic  the branded stuff in Japan is cheaper compare to Malaysia. (Note : I just walk in to some of the shop and have a quick glance. Not thru survey). A lot of the brand is not available in Malaysia. 
2. Those over cutie stuff from Japan Anime and Manga is all over the place. You can find them at special character shop, normal 24 hour mart etc. But all of them is made in China and wear the Japan price tag. A simple steel key chain can cost you 500-800yen. And that is RM20-RM32.
3. Subway in Tokyo can be a nightmare for those with lack of direction. Some busy train station that is intersection of many different train line is like a big dungeon maze. There is many different train operator in Tokyo, the common one is JR line and Tokyo Metro. And these different train operator normally means that the station for their line lies at different place within the same train station. A walk from one line to another might be 300 meter away. And to confuse you more, some line have "Rapid" or "Express" line. That means the train won't stop at certain train station. Most train have 2 direction travelling and the train is at different platform and different level. I am lost a few times waiting for the right train line but wrong direction train. Thus when you are in a station, you need to be sure which direction train you need to take or you will end up using more time to reach destination. Take note on the next few train station after your destination, that will give you hint are you on the right train or not.
   Also take note, some train station go till Level 5 underground.
4. There is 2 common "Touch n Go" card that can be use in Japan. Suica and Pasmo. Both can be used for all the train ride in Japan. Some shop and vending machine also accept these card as payment method. You can get the card at ticket vending machine in the train station.
5. The pedestrian walkway is also used by bicycle rider. And there is a lot of Japanese travel around using bicycle. Thus when you walk at walkway, go straight. Do not sway to side when you see something interesting on the left or right. Some cycle the bicycle very fast.
6. Most Japanese is very friendly and willing to show you the way. But their English is very poor. I have get better direction shown when I ask the Police at Tokyo. The police officer English level is higher. Or maybe I am lucky. On my 2 occasion asking direction from a police, they can communicate with me using English that I can understand easily.
7. Even if you see English word and Chinese character, the way Japanese define these word may differ a lot. For example, I have a hard time looking for "Washroom" and "Toilet". It turn out, Japan people refer these place as "Lavatory". Another example is I can see a lot of place mark 无料. After some google and checking with the hotel concierge, what it means is "FREE" or 免费. See how big difference it is. 
8. The road crossing is also different from Malaysia. For first few time, take note on the Japan person next to you, cross when he also crossing. Else you will need to take note as the car that is turning left at the Cross Junction, can have green light when the crossing zebra is also showing green light for pedestrian to cross road. And in some major road, the zebra crossing is not just forming a square. It allow you to cross the opposite. Example, Shibuya human train crossing. A very interesting experience. Hard to imagine how many people is crossing the road each time the light go green.
9. Water from pipe in Japan is safe for consuming. You do not need to buy mineral water. 
10. The food price in Tokyo can range from "Free" till RM1000++ per meal. For free meal, just go to Isetan or some supermarket and there is booth free to try food. 2nd choice is the bento set at Isetan or those 24 hours mart. 3rd choice is Lunch time menu. Normally meal is cheaper at lunch time then other time or during dinner time. Street food is not cheap food. Most meal will cost you RM30 till RM40. And for those who wanted to try good food, go research for some Michelin restaurant. Tokyo have more Michelin Star restaurant than France or any country.
11. Earthquake is a normal affair in Tokyo. It happen once or more every month. But it usually not reported in news because Earthquake of magnitude 5 or below. But still you can be consider lucky if you experienced it. I did not experience any earthquake during my stay there.
12. Shopping can be real different experience compare to Malaysia. Most of the time I am walking in back alley or checking out the basement, 2nd or 3rd floor of a small shop lot. Most interesting and cheaper stuff is found in place like this. The shop facing the main road normally is occupy by big chain company that have loads of cash. Example, Uniqlo, Burberry, Gucci, Prada etc.
13. Japanese people have very strong sense of copyright. So do not enter shop like LV with a fake imitation. Some comment that the shop sales girl have right to confiscate your fake LV handbag.
14. Also do not try to take photo of the shop product or the people in the shop. Be polite to ask for permission if you really want to take it. You never know if the shop is protected by Yakuza etc.
15. One last advice is never ever take taxi in Tokyo. Unless you willing to pay RM1000 or more for a taxi ride.

Reaching the dream....

I am so tired.... Recently feel every night don't wish to sleep.
Every morning don't wish to wake up. Don't wish to go work.

Everyday feel so exhausted after work. And feel am I suitable for the job or not.

My ex boss once told me,
You need to stand up.
You need to think of what you want for your life.
Try something that scared you everyday and be strong.
Don't be deceive by the current situation. Coz since you are young, you have overcome all obstacle to reach what you are today. When you face the SPM exam, you think this time you will die and cannot pass the exam, but you pass in the end.
Don't take "No" for an answer. Learn to negotiate. Get the best out of it.

Think back about all these words, these are perhaps the best staff development that he give to me.
I still don't know what I want in 10 years.
I still unsure what future I wish for myself.

I just know I am trying mybest to get more more $$$.

So that I can reach my dream.
Go around the world.

Tomorrow I will reach one of my dream location..... (^___^)

有人疼才顯得多麼出眾

Last week gone to sing K with a friend.
And she sing a song.
I remember I have heard this song many times over the radio.
But only that day I really listen to the lyric.
And I almost cry because the lyric is so suitable.
Like singing my story....

天后 歌詞
作詞：彭學斌 作曲：彭學斌


And the part that tell my story.......

你要的不是我 而是一種虛榮
有人疼才顯得多麼出眾
我陷入盲目狂戀的寬容
成全了你萬眾寵愛的天后
若愛只剩誘惑 只剩彼此忍受
別再互相折磨
因為我們都有錯

如果有一天愛不再迷惑
足夠去看清所有是非對錯
直到那個時候 你在我的心中
將不再被歌頌 把你當作天后
不會再是我

《犀利人妻最終回：幸福男．不難》

《犀利人妻最終回：幸福男．不難》



 A fierce wife.
I wonder why it is called a fierce wife.
As the main "wife" in this drama or movie is not fierce at all.
Because she is not fierce therefore she got bully.
Her husband got seduce by her own cousin.
Her house got live by them.
Her bed is slept by them.
Even her beloved daughter is almost taken from her.

 I really wanted to punch the guy.
After all he has done to this "wife", he still think maybe they can get back together again.
Lucky in the end he realize what he should do.
He understand that he should let go the hand so that the "wife" can go find the happiness.

The movie could have a higher rating from me if the story is more flowing and the ending can be less sudden twist. It feel so dramatic that the main character need to fly all the way to find their love one and then scream in front of the chapel to stop the wedding. Should they also put song like "25 minutes" at this part?

Otherwise it could be a much better movie.

Two part of the movie make me shed tears.
First is when after all the guy did, the girl still left him alone at the wedding registration.

It just touch a sensitive spot of my heart and tear start to flow down my cheek.

Another part is when the girl best friend say....
"The reason I choose my current husband is because I feel most comfortable when I am with him"

Cause it remind me of her....

I wonder is it I do not give you this comfortable feeling?

Or perhaps you just need the luxury feeling and get surrounded by Gucci, Prada, Channel, and LV......
