Geu Deh Ji Geum (eng and korean subs)-Full House



This is indeed my favourite song in the whole of great songs in Full House. it makes me feel that all love is possible if one could give it a chance and to learn to open up themselves to be loved and to love another. i can listen to this forever!

Could Full House No. 2 beat the songs as well as the success and popularity?

My vote: NO

My wish it can be as close tho, cant wait!!!

Life....




What a difference a sad event in someone's life makes.
GEORGE CARLIN (His wife recently died...)

Isn't it amazing that George Carlin - comedian of the 70's and 80's - could write something so very eloquent...and so very appropriate.

A Message by George Carlin:

The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers, wider Freeways, but narrower viewpoints. We spend more, but have less, we buy more, but enjoy less. We have bigger houses and smaller families, more conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees but less sense, more knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet more problems, more medicine, but less wellness.

We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too reckl essly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom.

We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often.

We've learned how to make a living, but not a life. We've added years to life not life to years. We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbor. We conquered outer space but not inner space. We've done larger things, but not better things.

We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul. We've conquered the atom, but not our prejudice. We write more, but learn less. We plan more, but accomplish less. We've learned to rush, but not to wait. We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less.

These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion, big men and small character, steep profits and shallow relationships. These are the days of two incomes but more divorce, fancier houses, but broken homes. These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill. It is a time when there is much in the showroom window and nothing in the stockroom. A time when technology can bring this letter to you, and a time when you can choose either to share this insight, or to just hit delete...

Remember; spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going to be around forever.

Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe, because that little person soon will grow up and leave your side.

Remember, to give a warm hug to the one next to you, because that is the only treasure you can give with your heart and it doesn't cost a cent.

Remember, to say, "I love you" to your partner and your loved ones, but most of all mean it. A kiss and an embrace will mend hurt when it comes from deep inside of you.

Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment for someday that person will not be there again.

Give time to love, give time to speak! And give time to share the precious thoughts in your mind.

AND ALWAYS REMEMBER:

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.


SO HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND READERS!!!! TAKE CARE! DONT DRINK AND DRIVE!

Love pills....

"Dance like nobody's watching; love like you've never been hurt. Sing like nobody's listening; live like it's heaven on earth."-Mark Twain

I have always love the above quote. i think it is sweet. i think the deeper meaning to it is that you do what you want to do. You do things that you want even other people might think it is childish, a waste of time or out of the norm. Despite your failures or hardship in life, you should live this short life to the fullest. Do feel free to do what your heart desires and enjoy this life as it is..Be free, be you. This life is always about you first.

On the other hand, a colleague of mine shared her love failure story recently saying that she couldnt sleep and have to take pills and stuff like that, easily put -emosional breakdown. she is 21. my advice- think about you first, be sad and cry you the river, but then get up, see the people and the world around you, and your problem will soon be smaller that you think. you are young and you have the world in front of u. gosh 21!!!!

i guess in life people have their own story to tell when it comes into love. i bet you, 1000 people you meet in life, there will be 1000 different stories that can be told. that is the best part of it.

they say its easy to find love and relationship, but it is a whole other story to keep it. i agree.

thus, we have to compromise. love needs trust and patience and the whole 1000 small packages and requirements that comes along with it. its really tough i must say. but i believe people can change and people do change. but if there is no more love then why do we have to linger and be hurt and expecting our partner to keep loving us just because he or she is the other half.

life is short, say what you want to say and lets that be it. told my colleague she is better off whithout his ex anyway as simple quotation in life is-if it is meant to be, then it is meant to be.

should we be complacent and rely on that forever?

Salute to the badminton queen



CONGRATULATIONS to Wong Mew Choo for winning the China Open. The win is more significant in that she beat three top Chinese shuttlers in the 'Dragon's Den'!
(taken from the Star news)

After work...



I am starting to think that my job is a curse. nope! let me rephrase. i am starting to think that the location of my current job is actually a curse. i was at Pavillion at lunch, spending one and a half hours walking and browsing and i end up with two shopping bags. i didnt even had my lunch! have to come back to my office just in case my boss required me to email him sumthing as he is out of town, as he always is!

seems that the GSC movie theatre has officially open, right to the next RedBox karaoke, looking very posh. yayayyaya, i didnt realised it myself but on my way to the new Nike store, i saw it...can smell the popcorn and stuff, yums! And..the Nike store at pavillion-superb. lots of choices and its together with the casual nikewear. and there is a big poster of Nadal nearby the men's section, love!!!! i wanted to go in Adidas, but am afraid that the chatty adik will come and chat with me and i can lost 20 mins valuable shopping times just talking abt the weather ;-) bless him tho, he is very friendly!

after work at 7, i was like, ummmmm should i go home or should i go to Pavillion again (as there are certain shops that i didnt manage to visit during lunch)?oh well. off i go walking while clutching my black shining big handbag tightly as i am afraid to get snatched in Bukit Bintang area. managed to get there safely and i continue browsing around....lalalalla...aha!!! La Senza seems to have many red and black stuff to celebrate the festive christmas...ummmm...nice! went in and 20 mins later im clutching another shopping bag! help!

left about 9pm, by then my legs are killing me and i wish i can lie down in my bed.

however, i think my day was a fruitful one too. i was browsing thru at the watches section and found this. pls wat do u think, which one is nicer?

Happy Birthday MAF

To M,

Happy Happy Birthday dear! How old are you now? 25? 30? 35? Though I have not seen you for a while now but always this period of time each year, my thoughts will go to you, to the times that we have spent together. End of the year, always the hardest, as time goes by, remembering as life was so hectic by Nov/Dec back then. Months of events; your birthday, then come Christmas then come the big New Year celebration. Remembering the time when you gave me a christmas present, our walk in the park during winter where all things were white and the snow falling down from the sky seemed so beautiful and on the trips that we had during christmas holidays.

Saw your message in my Friendster yesterday. When was the last time we chatted? Maybe 5 or 6 months ago eh? Am glad that we are still friends up till this time. Really, I still want to go there for a visit, dont get me wrong and to be honest, the money and the timing, well they are just excuses. The real reason was maybe I was afraid. Afraid that everything that I would see still remembers me of you. The places that we went, the streets, the shops that we used to frequent, even to some corners of London where we used to have a laugh. Afraid that what you told me before was true. Afraid that remembering what is familiar would be harder to forget, in the present.

Watched Sex in the City and they talked about the past and the present. I think it is okay to remember the past but one has to live in the present. The past makes what we are today. People do get separated by time, but always we can look back once in a while to the good old times and remember the good old days. Sometimes, I listen to our cd, remember? the one that 'The Way We Were' song was in it and remembers..ahhhh, the good old days...the good old days...

So to mark this joyous ocassion, I will definitely salute a toast to you from million miles away and wishing you all the happiness in the world. The old wisemen once said and He was right indeed, 'though a man and a woman who loves each other are apart and are not together for any reason or another, the next best thing that you can do is to wish all the happiness and the blessings in the world to each other at all times'.

So Happy Birthday again love, heartiest congratulations to you and Ms. C, and may all your wishes come true.

Always love,
PO
22nd November 2007


"You can search throughout the entire universe for someone who is more deserving of your love and affection than you are yourself, and that person is not to be found anywhere. you yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe deserve your love and affection." -Buddha

PETALING JAYA: The organisers of the “Clash of Titans” between three-time French Open tennis champion Rafael Nadal and Wimbledon semi-finalist Richard Gasquet have given an assurance that the match will be held as scheduled at the Malawati Stadium in Shah Alam on Nov 20.

They announced yesterday that both players would be on the same flight from Shanghai to Kuala Lumpur on Nov 19 after their participation in the ATP Tennis Masters Cup.

The match is one of the three events of the Malaysia Independence Tennis Festival, which also features the “Clash of Times” between Pete Sampras and Roger Federer on Nov 22 in Shah Alam and the Malaysian Open ATP Challenger Series tournament at the National Tennis Centre in Kuala Lumpur from Nov 17-25.


The chief executive officer of First Events Promotions Sdn Bhd, Adlin Zabri, said: “The Clash of Titans and the Clash of Times are both 100% confirmed. The players are coming to Malaysia. In fact, they will be in Malaysia in a few days' time.

“Preparations for the events are progressing very well. This is Nadal’s first appearance in South-East Asia and it is great that Malaysia are the hosts. We are very thankful to the Ministry of Youth and Sports, the Lawn Tennis Association and the National Sports Council for all of their support.”

AS the stadium is too far from where i am (approx 2 hours including jam if am lucky) and i finish work earliest at 6pm, so i think am gona watch it at astrosports channel tonite at 8!!!

Last Weekend..

WATCHED the semifinals and the finals of the Tennis Masters Cup in Shanghai. Nadal's lost straight set to the great Roger Federer in the semis. Bummer again! but yes, i would say that Federer is in fact the best there is in the tennis arena. but i also think that Nadal is in the right track towards becoming world number 1 tho i think the world no 1 spot will stay very very long with Federer looking at things.

parents came to visit. am so happy. brought mummy and daddy to jalan tuanku abdul rahman and get her scarfs and some kain for her baju kurung and stuff. when they left i missed them immediately...cant wait to go back home..maybe soon....ummm..

didnt do any shopping at all. however, i went to do my grocery shopping at the mart near my house on last saturday. of all the times in this world, there was a movie or telemovie shooting or sumthing that must take place at the same time that i want to do my shopping! cables and cameras were everywhere and they were man wearing shirt that shows "CREW" at the back. just my luck! get all the things that i want as quick as possible and left..urrgghhh!!!

bumped into MBF afterwards at Belanga while buying lunch! hahahah i am beginning to think that she is having an affair with sumone that lives near my house as this was the second time that it happened.

monday blues again today...boring!!!

Love this song...

To me it was love...

Another fav MV from Rain....

Bummer...

I was on the treadmill when the tennis match between Nadal and Ferrer start off yesterday. my jam class has started i know, but i couldnt resist to watch the first game at least....

seems that Nadal was in a good shape. go nadal go!!!

left the treadmill for jam class as Tony was in instead of Juwita. in the middle of it i went out just to check on the progress...yayyayayaay nadal leading and won the first set, things was surely looking good desptie i walked in the rain to the gym just now.

so i happily continued my jam class. straight after the warming down, went to the tele and gosh!!! oh no!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ferrer is leading in the second set with nadal closely trying to get break points. me swearing silently. nadal forehand was everywhere and too many unforced errors. but still looking good on the court i can see ;-)

when ferrer won the second set i left the gym with a frustration and dissapointment intact.

reached home and ferrer was leading 5 to 3. okay!!!!! me have no more hope.

looking forward to nadal's next game....

SEX AND THE CITY

i am doing the rerun on the whole season of Sex and the City. i finished season 5 yesterday and i have one more season to go.

love love love the series.

come to think of all the characters, i am bits and pieces of all the characters..i would take care of a fren's baby (tho i have no idea how) just like samantha and i would gv up my hair cut appointment if that makes someone's happy, or if my fren would need it more desperately than i do.

i am like charlotte when it comes to marriage. i look highly on the idea and sanctity of marriage. and i am like her when it comes to Harry. even that she has the idea of what type of men that she wants to end up with, but she manage to make room for Harry which is the total opposite of her dream guy.

i am carrie when i look at men, evaluating them and asking questions. the difference? only that she managed to express it well in writing when i am totally okay of just keeping it to myself or at the privy of only the closest frens.

when it comes to miranda, im sceptical to a certain point only, but i think i would take up the challenge and try sumthing new eventhough it scares me, like having a baby.

what about u? what is your character?

Federer's lost...

Gonzalez grit makes Federer look mortal
By Paul Alexander in Shanghai
Published: 13 November 2007
Roger Federer lost consecutive matches for the first time in four and a half years yesterday when he was beaten here by Fernando Gonzalez, of Chile, at the season-ending Masters Cup for the world's top eight players.

Federer, the top seed, had beaten Gonzalez, the No 7 seed, in 10 previous meetings, but lost 3-6, 7-6, 7-5. "It was a tough defeat," the Swiss world No 1 said. "I thought I played pretty good. I wish I had an excuse.

"I thought it was ridiculous some of the shots he was coming up with," Federer added, a baseball cap pulled down over his eyes.

"I can't do much when he drills that incredible forehand in the corner. I wish I had an excuse but I just lost the tie-break in a bad way and never got the edge in the third set."

A jubilant Gonzalez said: "I have really a lot of motivation. After 10 matches, it's my turn now. I think the key of the match was my serve and don't be scared to go for my shots. That was really important."

Federer had appeared to be in control of the Red Group match after taking the opening set, but he lost his temper after Gonzalez ripped through the second-set tie-break 7-1. The 12-times Grand Slam champion vented his fury at the umpire on returning to his chair and his mood darkened further in the third set. His frustration grew as Gonzalez saved five break points on his way to victory.

Federer won three Grand Slam titles in 2007 and has already clinched the No 1 ranking for the fourth straight year. But he has been vulnerable over the past month, falling twice to the ninth-ranked David Nalbandian, first in Madrid, then in the third round at Paris, his last match before meeting Gonzalez here.

The last time Federer lost two matches in a row was in 2003 when he fell in the third round at Hamburg, then in the first round at the French Open. Yet if he beats Andy Roddick and Nikolay Davydenko here, he should reach the semi-finals.


I watched the game yesterday and I think Gonzales played very well and the sharp shots that he made was just amazing!

hope Nadal can make it to the finals!!!!!
aja!!!

The Outing..

(Thursday, 8th November, Deepavali Day)

RING RING...(Ring tone: Full House song)

my phone is ringing, it is thursday.

Me: Helo...(still sleeping by the way)

MBF: Babe, are u awake?

Me: no...eeerrr (then it dawned on me...shit!!!) okay, im getting ready!

hang up and look at my mobile...shit, 10.50am! my date with MBF is at 11am. then saw there is a sms at 10 sumthing from MBF...shit shit shit...hit the shower and i just wear watever that i can grab. hahahahha! shit...

am late...as usual...damn...


managed to get ready in a split second. MBF as usual, picked me up from home. (LOVE U LOTS MBF)...we went to LA Bodega to have our brunch. i havent done this like forever. the last time i think was with MBF and MBA. ages ago...really..due to work and raya hols, i havent got the chance to spent really quality gurl time with my boo.

so we played scrabble while having our english breakfast.

seriously, how come "E W O K" is non-existent? it is a starwars character...helow!!!
MBF beat me by 20 points...i let her win eh??? hahahahahahhah! better luck next time for me!

adjourned to Cat Whiskers boutique right across where we were. browsing browsing browsing then bumped into Ms O with her dear hubby. after an hour or so, i managed to get myself a handbag, a nice top for work and a pair of silver hoops earrings that i dont need ..thanks to the gorgeous lady that worked at the cashier with her 10% thing for 3 items that one purchased..okay okay!!! *SIGH* but love my handbag! ;-)

Ms O, being 3 months pregnant, suddenly craved for Baskin Robbins. off we go to the nearest outlets and had our chat there as well. by the time we finished, its nearly half past 4.

next venue, the Gardens. parking-a nightmare. the rest, is quite okay. the food there really u can give it a miss. the shops there, i would prefer pavillion anytime, however, i love robinsons, i think its great. however, i managed not to get anything ;-)

Mr. T and Mr H decided to join us later on. Had dinner then we proceeded to Starbucks to meet up with Mr C and wifey and son and Ms O and hubby as well which much later were joined by Mr Z and the ever lovely Mr. D.

I had a great time. Definitely looking forward to to my next outing with MBF.

but how come this lovely and lively spirit was dampen by a certain Mr A on the Whitney Houston event in Malaysia? ummm...........siap u!

Chicago The Musical...



WENT to see 'Chicago the Musical' last Wednesday at Plenary Hall, KL Convention Centre. I was contemplating of where to park the car, whether at KLCC or at the convention centre itself. then of course, thinking that i havent been walking down the malls at klcc for some time since the opening of Pavillion, i straight on drove to kia peng street and park at klcc Suria to be exact.

arrived at the concourse, and as usual klcc are filled with people. my first shop as usual was Zara. while looking at the clothes, suddely sumone called be from behind...aaahhh, it is Ms R from gym...i havent seen her at the gym but we often bumped accidently into each other. i envy her, despite freezing her membership for months and months at the gym, she managed to stay slim as it is, i think she wears like size 4 or 6...damn...she as usual, as nice as ever. we chatted for a mere 5 minutes before she politely excused herself.

after then i resume my shopping to MNG...ummm...boring boring boring...then suddenly, again sumone is calling me from behind ...ahhhh its Mrs F, nearly 8/9 months pregnant with her first child...she looks blossomly pregnant and happy..we chatted abt ten mins or so and was interrupted by a call from my colleague who was impatiently waiting for me for a cocktail at kl convention. *SIGH*

so i walk towards kl convention. met my colleague Mrs L and then later on MS S. i ate the food there like eating dinner. the food was interesting, that i can say..

later at 8pm the musical started. overall, i found it quite entertaining...12 dancers on the stage. the actors are all good, so Broadway! me love love love, the white feathers, the musical is okay...i love musical. but i think i enjoyed "My Fair Lady" more. but still, i enjoyed my nite...left there about 10.30 or so.

after that, went to see MBA and Mr K and MBF. MBA is flying off to Bali so i stop by to say helo and bon voyage.

reached home and feeling tired, but i definitely had a good nite. looking forward to my outing with MBF to Bangsar and the Gardens the next day, yay!



self rating of the musical:7/10
