It has been two months since I moved into our new place. Happpy!
After having the keys from my lawyers on the 1st July, we managed to move in a month after that! It has been a big and huge task for us. The feeling of joy plus tiredness completely overwhelmed us.
After the painting job done, we managed to scout for bed, bedroom, curtains, kitchen and cleaning accessories before we managed to fully move in!
We kept on going to Ikea, Houz Depot and other furniture shop to find a perfect furnitures and kitchen utensils for our new home. What a great but tiring experience. But HOME sure sweet HOME! Love every moment of it. Sweet home meal everyday whenever you need it. Full blast music whenever you wish it!

Bornday in 2011
Wonderful birthday begins with a barbeque party at Izen with some good friends. Loads of fish balls from Gabby too. We had our first birthday cake, a black sesame cake.
Then my birthday celebration seems to be continue without me even notice it. Surprised after another especially for my dear. It starts with an ang pow packet delivered to my home on 15th Feb. Inside was a monkey handphone accessories! Haha and I thought what the heck is that? Without a stamp even make it more creepy for me to open it!
On the 20th, I had a birthday surprised dinner from my dear. Did not know that I am going to have a special dinner until I was there at Tamarind Restaurant, Jalan Sultan Ismail , KL. When I reached, I saw some of friends was there too. Is cool and full of shocker to me. Damn it I should have wore something much nicer!! But anyway, I enjoyed the good company and great food. I have an iPod Nano as my gift too! Is especially engraved for me, nice message and meaningful for a pink Nano. Great dear! Not forgeting my 2nd birthday homemade cheesecake from Geraldine too. Yummy. Ended our night at Oldtown Coffeeshop at Jaya One!.
Even though I am bit sick due to flu, I try to enjoy it as much as I can. I thought my birthday celebration has come to an end. Weekend gone by and I celebrated it with my friends. But I am so wrong eh?
I am so surprised on my actual birthday when I received my 3rd and 4th birthday cakes, two dozens of cupcakes and a Baskin Robbin ice cream cakes from my darling and colleagues! What a blast!
After that, I received a homemade skirt from Tasha too by mail.. hahah creativity is in the house! And my final surprised came as a shocker when I received yet another two dozens of beautiful red roses and four stalks of white roses from my office receptionist. Thanks dear Norman :)
It was so romantic that my colleagues kept on asking me to go back and prepare myself for a marriage proposal! LOL. But you know, romantic is about everyday life, respect each other and not only for one day.

4 Days to 2011
New year is here. Each and every person on earth are given the same amount of time each year. So, you and me should have no excuses of saying we have no time. We should not said we want to do this and that but yet end up doing neither. Busy, no time would be the lame excuse ever! All of us have the same amount of time!
After starting my own blog two years ago, I have grown much wiser, thinking out of the box with planing in my head. I am now moving towards getting what I need rather than what I want. I have to forsee what I am in 5-10 years time. That is not that difficult because the aim was to protect myself and my loves one. Time flies, but it cannot be measured by the amount of time I put into action. This is because I need to pool my resourses first. One cannot be stubborn and ego on this. You need to plan!
I want to say out loud that whatever I did was because I can see the vision of my future. I forsee what I need to be comfortable in my life, I forsee that what a person would need to have to be happy, less hassle and stress free. So the basic should be a home, with basic necessity. Clean water, facilities and comfort in life.
I have been planning to get a place of my own so that I have my own space and roof over my head. I think that should be a priority as I do not want to be homeless?
A person a human being ..regardless of who you are, where you are and what you do for a living you need a home. Is a place, a cosy one... but not a house with empty hopes. It was from a home that a person would be able to grow. To live out off his or her life and be happy without any worries. Is basic, yet if you measure by what is worth, is priceless and tend to be forgotten. It tend to be mislead as an asset. But is with this asset you be able to create a lively life!
With this asset, you can sleep well at night, have a home cooked meal, have cosy reading place, a place to hang out without any excess charge......... Is a cosy humble home that everyone should have, is where all the memories and life changing experiences and dreams come into life!

I have written my own obituary after read the book Robin Sharma -Discover Your Destiny
Calyn Wong was a women who believed in passion. She believed that every human being have a passionate moment in his or her life. With the power of passion comes determination. A person success came within and with that believed every steps would lead to be a successful person.
She believed that success cannot be measured. Success was a passion in leading everyday life, treasure every moment and loving oneself and giving it all.
Calyn Wong was a simple women. She loves desserts, shoes, reading and writing on her blog.
She encountered so much personal pain but she grew from it, she made a lot of mistakes, some she can't remembered but some she did, but most importantly she learned from it.
She thankful to her family and friends around her, who kept her sane. Thankful to "Helping Angels" for giving her a chance to open up herself to care for others, to let her know that life isn't that bad afterall. And mostly, thankful to have a lovely husband and kids that bring the best of her.
All she ever wanted in her life is to love, to give unconditional love and to lead a happy meaningful life. She had it.
And she hoped everyone else have it too.
Calyn died last night, at the tender age of 89. She hopes that her family and friends leads a happy life.

Shopping for a Home
I have been searching for a place to call home since last year. I have this thoughts in my mind, but I do not put it into actions as I can't afford it yet, so I postponed it like since late 2008! I did not expect I want it this bad until I realised it would cost me much more now to buy one than one year ago.. sigh. The search is on, full force this time after found out that I have finally have money after 7 years of non stop working!
I have been searching extensively since mid of the year because I realised how important it was for me. Clock is ticking and I do not even have a place of my own yet! Blimy.. the red alert starting to get stucked in my head after reality sink in. I have browsed through i-property for some informations on any available place but to my dismay it was so pricey in this part of the world that I cringed and pondered in anger..
PJ area do not have much to choose from if according to my budget.. so I guess I have to settle in a condo/apartment instead. I like my sister new landed property in Damansara Kim and she told me the other unit nearby was selling at half million, so I guess "bye bye" to landed property.
I start to look at condos and to my dismayed even the Ken Damansara that my sister constantly talking about was selling about min 450K per unit for a 1000 sq ft. BLIMY! I panic. Because I only interested in PJ area. I looked at Kota Damansara, the leasehold area cost a bomb too and I don't think I would like to stay in an area with too high density! Noisy! Jammed ... so I did not do much research there as I prefered other area first before zooming to that area.
Viewing the town house in Villa Dahlia made me a happier person as I found out that this is the same place my ex-colleagues was staying. After viewing, I loved it as it was so serene, windy and decent place for a price tag of less than 300K! But further research shown not much of a good signs as it was near to a sewerage and the leasehold apartment only left with 69 years!Blimy...
Viewing Desa Kiara Condo was also a nice condo with good location, with 1250 sq ft and is freehold this time! Voila! and asking price was at 310K! After further viewing 3 units there I finally settled with this one as this unit, the balcony view was much nicer and no cemetery on your side..But my nightmare just begun!
The agent seem to regret pricing it at 310K, (according to my instinct) as she kept on pestering me to get some loan information and don't really look like interested to answer my questions while I'm viewing the place.
Then she started to make me and my other half in nightmares, countless sms-es.. etc. This was due to condo market value was at 280K only.And the bank only offers 80% loan for this Desa Kiara condo.But I made a decision to buy as I think is a good buy due to my budget constraint. Susan Loh the agent that screwed my life up and down called me and said I must pay 3% tonight! WHAT THE F***. She keep on changing her words and finally when I met her she "hoo haa" again and gave me the F** up excuses with F*** up look. Anyway, I was blessed as she returned my deposit less than a week after that. But is blessing in disguise indeed..Thank good ness.. my bf and me no need to see her face again! EVER! After this episode, I took my time and ponder.. I do not have the mental energy to even view a place anymore but I did it anyway...
So I sms-es my cousin and she mentioned she stayed in Bayu Puteri, PJ. Voila, I'm in the mood again.. but to my dismay the apartment looks like a hostel that I stayed during my Uni days,, blimy and the worst yet to come as the unit look so worn out and screwed up even though the price tag was at 240K only.
So I start calling again to view other units in that condo,but in between making arrangement, I have reply an FB message to my friend as she find out in my FB "status" that I'm looking for a place to buy. She messaged me way earlier before but her price tag that time was more than 350K..I felt is too high for me to even consider it. So, I kept it in my inbox for 3 weeks. Only after viewing this Bayu that I realised I might just give myself a chance to view this fren's place. Finally after viewing two units in Bayu on saturday, we went to view Dataran Prima condo, my ex school mates from MGSS....and yes we loved the place. But then again we are all not excited as we were not very sure what would be the price tag.. I ended up thinking about 2 hours and write a message to my friend and gave her my offer. She accepted it.... when I first read the first sentence of her message .. I shouted yes in my sister dining table. I'm happy and worried at the same time. I stress out for all this matters for quite some time now and finally I have a place to call home! YEAH :) Thanks to everyone involved in my search. Especially my BF, My sister and bro in law. Thank you all and mostly Thank you Jacinta for giving me my dream home!
