Should I changed my blog to turned 30 instead of turning 30. Obviously I wasn't thinking when I came up with this blog title.

30 I reckon is a good age. It's the age whereby you are still ( relatively young), have a tad bit of money after years of working your butt off and hopefully by now, you know who you are..

My friend Julian asked what do I want to do this year because by now being a mother is still the last thing in my head. I am never one of these people who think, in 5 years time, I am going to rule the world. My goals are relatively short term and in a sense maybe I am a bit myopic. For now, I just want to enjoy living, I just want to soak in the moment......

One of the saddest thing about growing older, is not growing older is the suffering the guilt of an adult child. When you are away from your family, you don't see them for a period of time and when you do, they are now a little older than when you last saw them.. But then again, life is never really about the destination because we know that eventually the final destination is death. It's fleeting continuation of life's little adventures and lessons.

Today, I resolute to try and learn something new everyday. I do not want to be that chick that says no it's not for me because we don't know until we try...

There is something that saddens me a lot, in the past few years especially after coming to HK, I became very preoccupied in myself, my career and my hobbies. I stopped bothering about people that potentially I'd liked to be friends with. I was pretty shocked today to receive SMSes from people I know because to be honest, I have no idea when their birthdays are.

So from now on, I want to start from stratch, I want to listen more than I talk ( and fucking hell, I talk a lot okie)


I want to thank everyone for their birthday wishes...

I want to thank my colleagues for realising my birthday wish ( which was to donate to SPCA)

And finally at 30, I still do not have everything but I think I have enough which is cool by me.

When I was young, my mother told me never to judge a book by its cover. All I can say is mum you're wrong. Whether we like it or not, we are fucking shallow freaks and I for one, have the guts to admit that, when I was in Primary One. I deliberately sat next to the cutest girl in my class because she had rosy cheeks, long straight jet- black hair and just to top another level of cuteness, she had a Hello Kitty Bag.

Today, one day prior to turning 3o, I can tell you people treat good looking people better all the time.. When I saw this picture of Obama, all I can say is, never once had a politician turned me on but Barack, wow.. I don't mind smearing sunblock on your abs.


In retrospects, this is atypical look Malaysian politicians sport

As no one could deny how corrupted they are, you know what's worse.. they look corrupted. No man has that type of girth, unless they are lazy and greedy. If I ever go back home to Malaysia ( highly unlikely) I'd be your personal trainer Najib. You will be a brand new man but.. you will still be corrupted.






Aiyo, I also got no eye see la...



I turn 30 tomorrow. As much as I have been saying that I have been looking forward to this milestone. I realised that turning 30 has its little limitations....

1.) I have officially been disqualified for speed speeding - I just realised how unfair speed dating is towards women. Whilst the age of eligibility starts at 28 for men for women it's 20. What does this all mean? Men are brainless baboons till the age of 28? http://www.hkspeeddate.com/


2.) I am too old to be Ms. Hong Kong. Well, didn't really feel the pinch here because my height has automatically disqualified me from day one.


3.) I am too old to dress like a slut. There is no crime as bad as an older woman trying to look like a 14 year old virgin.. I know of some and I tell you it's darn bloody pathetic..


4.) After a few years with increasing fine lines, I would not rule the possibilities of considering collagen injections, botox or any form of plastic surgeries. I'd like a nicer nose. Something sharper, more delicate like Maggie Cheung's nose - and hers is fake as well... More prominent jaw line is worth considering as well... what to do, growing old is a fucking bitch. Well, at least I hope by this 30 something decade, I'd pool together enough money to fix them. Don't give me crap like god gives you what you need. Why do you think god created plastic surgeons then?



Whether I am 30 or 40 or 50. I'd still want to be a fiesty little devil with a young soul. I'd be supergran someday...Anyone remembers supergran?

I have been hiking loads. It's really the best time of the year to hike because the weather is so cool and snakes are hopefully by now hibernating ( due to Global Warming, maybe they are not) I recently had an adventure which I thought was pretty fun and it's little adventures like these that remind me that I am truly relishing and maximizing every moment I have. On a 6 hour hike from Shek Pik Reservoir to Tai O, we got lost and by the time we realised how lost we were, it was completely dark. It was a good thing, we had a torchlight with us that we managed to clumsily stumbled to a safe spot.
We tried to call 999 but we unfortunately had a foreign phone reception. We called 112 -- the China emergency number and they told us they couldn't help us. Finally, we SMSed some friends and asked them to help us call the cops. We didn't know how far we were from Tai O but we knew exactly where we were because of specific landmarks - we were near a temple and we were by the beach.
It was a cold night and trust me when you're outdoors, it's even colder. Was I scared? Not really, I was prepared to spend the night there. It's been years since I last camping, I wished that I was a tad bit better equipped. Before there was TV and Nintendo consoles, I wondered if people then looked up to the sky more often than we did. I haven't for a long while and when I looked up that night, the sky was just dotted with stars. I had no ideas, they are so close to one another. Or maybe I just forgot they are.. I went back to the basics that night.
Not long after, 10 firefighters came and we were escorted back to Tai O town.. We had a complete entourage of firefighters, police and paramedics waiting for us. I suppose in a town as small as Tai O they were excited to have any forms of emergencies, as small as it might be. They did looked a bit dissapointed when they found out none of us were injured.
