overdues..

yes yes...scream at me, yell at me..but don't slap me..i have not been writin for a long long time..pardon me.

loads has happen since my last post of rock climbin'.

recap..the last 8 months..

#1 Got myself a new job..back into the foodservice industry.in the commercial equipment side.based in KL.so if you ever in Midvalley area, buzz me cos my office is there.So far is been great..adaptin back to the corporate cos i left a year pursuing my own stuffs and doing Herbalife full time. in that one year, i have done so much self-discovery and exploration..and yes i am still doin Herbalife partially. A man once spoke to say "you can build your fortune part time"

#2 Started a online clothin with a long time best buddy of mine, Gloria..check us out at http://goodiesjunkie.blogspot.com
i am putting my talent of shoppin and lookin for good stuffs into good use.so far is progressin slowly but we are happy that we took that step.

#3 I've shifted out from my parents place. Cos Putra Heights is just to far far. My boyfriend jokes about how you need a passport to travel there..it feels like another country. I've moved in with a friend at D'sara Perdana Condo. So far is been great cos i got a good housemate that takes cares of me. We tend to look out for each other.

#4 I've sort of pick up tennis and heading to the driving range to pratice my gold swings. Is no harm to learn more sports and make myself useful..after all exercise are good for health.i'm a great believer of that but just that haven't been really walkin the talk..

#5 the rest is the bits and pieces here and there...

rock climbin 30.3.2008

after much hesitations and procrastinations, i finally did it...*yes!*

i know that too many people is not a great accomplishment but to me, is one of those things in "my to do list @ checklist" among other things.

was at a conversation with a family friend, Mike and i asked hime whether he was still into climbing. he says "yea". He invited me to his regular sunday rock climbing.checked on my schedule ..oh yea sunday is available. the few days before sunday came, i was very eager looking forward to the weekend climbing..just like a lil kid who is eager awaiting for the new bicycle.

sunday came..made arrangements to meet Mike at summit. i also invited Merv along. Reckon it will be fun doing it together..All in all the whole day rock climbing cost us each Rm 38 which includes the beginner class, the gears, the shoes and entry fee.

we were assigned to an instructor, Din. Din was really friendly, going through with us the basic knowledge of climbing, the roles and responsibilities, the basic equipments, tying the knots, and belaying process. one similiarity with diving is that you never ever climb alone.you climb with a buddy.one climber and one belayer.to me its so awesome. the experience was so great..and nothing beats the experience of doing it as a couple.i kinda like the idea of doing something together with my partner..instead of just hanging out, going to the movies and dinners.."i did rock climbing with my boyfriend,Merv ;)"

we spent close to 3 hours at the rock climbing area..going through some of the climbing routes, trying on our own.merv seems to be doing pretty well in rock climbin especially with his footholds.i need to work on my belaying.

well worth spent RM 38 for the experience. i would probably go for another few more climbing trips.seems fun and i like the idea how you challenge yourself and push yourself to climb and stretch and reach to the top. it feels as though i have conquer the world..at the top of the world.so euphoric!

next destination: camp 5, 1 utama

diving escapade @ the journey

..i must admit i never quite understand how diving can be such a powerful aphrodisiac..so i decided to get myself "into" diving and experience it myself. a bunch of friends have been planning to go diving together..merv, soon yean and pei yin are gonna do their rescue dive while me, robert and grace are doing our open water dive (beginner)..while jason and tomo will just join us for the trip. destination: pulau perhentian.

started the journey by making the deposit payment, get my manuals (still not excited yet)...

started reading my manuals as i need to accomplished that before attending my knowledge development classes for open water dive. it did feels like going back to school again, the whole reading, highlightin important points, quizzes..okay till this point everything still sounds a lil un-excited, an plain.

then came the 1st class, and it got a lil more interesting as the instructor explain on the whole diving expereince, the procedures and the equipments..it got even more interesting when we did our 1st confined water (pool session) where we get to suit up and put on the gears..and yea..we learn how to breathe using the regulator as underwater is totally different (wanna know more how it works, register yourself for diving and you'll now what i mean) i guesss you never know how it is and what it feels like till you get the 1st hand experience yourself..which explains why i can never able to imagine and understand how merv gets super duper excited about diving before this..now i am in it i totally get it (well at least when he talks about the equipments and diving stuffs i totally understand and sees it) ..

it gets more and more excited as we attended more classes. still got one more pool session and a lil test on the knowledge of open water diving and we are all geared for our open water dives at perhentian..ohh la la...and also i get to use merv's old wet suit which is still in very good condition ;) do intend to get my own mask.. saw one that i quite fancy at global scuba the other day at one utama..reasonable priced too. more reason to get it...*winks*

cant wait till the open water dives, discovering the beauty of the underwater paradise and what makes it even more exciting is the company of good friends..all the craps chattin, the dives, the laughters and alchohols...ohh...stay tune for the updates from the trip. to be posted next month april as the trip is april 11-14 ...awesome!

my valentine version : 2008

Valentine's Day or Saint Valentine's Day is a holiday celebrated on February 14th. It is the traditional day on which lovers express their love for each other by sending Valentine's cards,presenting flowers, or offering confectionary. The holiday is named after two of the numerous Early Christian martyrs named Valentine. The day became associated with romantic love in the circle of Geoffrey Chaucer in the High Middle Ages, when the tradition of courtly love flourished...

in the modern day many people took advantage of "The Day" and make it into a business opportunity.How? Flowers are sold multiple times more expensive (take it or leave it), fancy restaurants are all booked out, average costing RM 300++ per couple..is totally out mind,insane and impractical..to blow so much money away just for ONE night!

nevertheless...me and Merv, we had a very much budgeted valentine together...we went for a movie which was charged at usual price and we went for a ice cream treat in the night at baskin robbins..so it aint that bad..and i also got a freebie from baskin...is not so much about the gifts but most importnatly is whom you spend it with that matters most..is pointless to spend such a day with someone you totally do not fancy given the person were to shower you with fancy dinner, big bouquet of roses..you know what i mean...;)
