Wait Till I Have Time

Last night as I was about to go off from the office, I got a call from an old friend from college, she called to tell me the good news that she is getting married and would like to invite me to her wedding. She was one of the last ladies standing unmarried like myself among our college friends besides this other guy. Of course I was happy for her and asked about all the wedding preparation, as usual I feel very happy for the people who dare to take the plunge and happily sign the rest of their lives away to another person.

Of course when I got back home, I informed my dad who was also invited to the wedding. The shock of my life was that (although I managed to control hensem and didn't sound at all like I was shocked) he asked me "Daughter, other people are getting married, what about you?" in the most conversational tone, that brought me back to the time when I was six and my dad using the same tone asking me why I din want to go to school. Looks like my dad really wanted to know this time (usually it is my mom pestering me till no end about this matter). Of course I laughed and gave the usual reply that I was too busy and I will get married when I have the time. And that was the absolute end of this sensitive topic in the conversation.

Of course, getting married for me is the ultimate step. If I cannot imagine myself being married at all up till today means that I am not ready in one way or another, right? Not willing to make the sacrifice as some people would say or have yet to see the blessings of being a married person. Now of course, I would be missing out on things that are important to me like being pregnant and having kids. This feeling was recently brought on by meeting up with another friend who is pregnant and looking so happy and contented that when you see her, you will go "awww" like a sitcom audience during a touching moment.

The final verdict is that no matter how "awww" it can get on the motherhood front (of course I only like the thought of having a baby but realisticly, tearing my hair out is more likely when thinking of taking care of little children while working fulltime) it is still not possible for me to tip the scale to the marrying side at this moment in this relationship no matter how many external factors appear to be giving me pressure. Ask me why? You will get my standard reply "Wait till I have the time"

Voting Anxiety

I went on the Suruhanjaya Pilihanraya website to check on the voter's infomation. Wow! I was impressed because the minute you type in your new IC number your registered information and which centre you are supposed to be voting at will pop up immediately.

However, as Murphy's Law would have it for the 1st time voter... one part of my name was spelt wrongly, instead of a "z" they put in an "e". So I sent in a query to the e-mail address for more information and asked if I can still vote with this miniscule problem... of course I have not gotten a reply as yet...so I have to wait anxiously for a reply that may not even materialise before the 8th of March.... Arrrgggghhhhhhh

Gunung Angsi - A picture story

View from the peak of Gunung Angsi

Gunung Angsi was the second activity in the training schedule for EBC Nepal this October.

The climb took me about approximately 4 hours... I just couldn't get warmed up enough to just breeze along the trail going uphill as there was a cool wind blowing all the while and it got quite misty as well at 9 in the morning.I reached the peak at 11 a.m. where the whole group of people were already relaxing and enjoying themselves and eating an early lunch. After lepakking at the peak; eating and having a ciggie later, it was time to get down. Took another 1 hour to go down the same way we came up from. To go through the Hutan Lipur way would mean that we will have to pay the park entrance fee..... After that it was bathing by the roadside in a sarong and going off to Seremban for lunch. It was a good training :)

Misty mountain look at 9 in the morning

Some plant looking like corals except it is green

Leaves of some of the trees turning red...macam autumn pulak

A twisted vine hanging down from a tall tall tree

One of the more picturesque part of the jungle path

Leaves that look like butterflies or bow ties

Interesting plant looks like a chinese fan

The dog that beat everyone to the peak....

Mamak stall in the middle of the jungle? This place was actually built by some very frequent hikers as a rest area

Loggers trail just behind the DIY rest area

This is the starting and ending point of the climb...somewhere along the Highway....

Did'nt Know I had a Blog...

This is weird, I was browsing through a friend's blog and decided to make a comment on one of her post and suddenly I discovered that I have a blog.... Talk about not being technology savvy at all!
