Honey... Oprah got somethings in her head that she need to get right because if it wasn't for God she wouldn't be what she is today.

I'm sorry I had to take it from a religious stand point.

Yes, well I think so. It is a bit dark due to the light reflection but I like the sandels and deck chair on the beach. You expect someone nearby but there's nobody to be seen.

What are you searching for?

.. that was the question that was asked to me over the past week.  "Myself" - I answered. The questioner wasn't very pleased with the answer. Dug even more and made me talk more about it. The question was asked again.."I don't know" - I said. Talked more about finding happiness since I "lost" it and "myself" over the past couple of years.  The following day, it was asked again.. "To find the meaning in life (I suppose)" - who am I, what is my purpose..  No one asked me these questions before, I felt uncomfortable and drained trying to answer it. I don't have an answer to please the questioner. That wasn't the intention. The intention was to make me aware of why I did certain things in the past and understand it and to ensure it doesn't happen again in the future (so I don't fall into the same cycle). I appreciate that. I am cared for so much. However, I do believe that this journey is for me ...

The Script - No Sound Without Silence Tour Live In Malaysia 19th April 2015

Image
The Script had their first Malaysian concert in April! :) I was fortunate enough to attend it. I have always enjoyed listening to them since their "Man Who Can't Be Moved" days, and I'm so happy to see them doing well and getting the credits that has been long overdue.  We bought the sitting ticket (learned my lesson after the OneRepublic one!). There was a venue change (originally was in Putra Indoor stadium, like the Adam Lambert one!) and I was a little nervous that it was going a fair bit of distance from the stage (like the Linkin Park one!), but we had a pretty good view :) Pic taken from the Script's Twitter account. I added the yellow circle to show where we sat!  What's cool about them is that they are very interactive with the crowd and their gratitude is very genuine. You really do feel the love! The entrance was the bomb! They walked through the crowds to the stage singing Paint the Town Green. Mark and Danny sometimes will run...

Come Read with Me - June-July

Image
I finally read Paulo Coelho's story about his pilgrimage. He shares his Pilgrimage to Sasntiago de La Compostela, Spain with his guide, Petrus, which took him several months in search for his sword. There are some strange stuff happening. I am a little confused, but hey, it's his pilgrimage and it seems like he has emerged successful. You have to read it to understand what I mean. :D I was reading Dan Brown's Inferno on and off. When I finally had some days off work, I managed to finish the book. He brought back the beloved Robert Langdon for this book. The setting is in Florence, Italy. Dan really makes me want to visit Italy!!! The plot is Robert Langdon finds himself in a hospital with short term memory loss...and the world to save in 24hrs or so. Very thrilling. There were a few twists. You could anticipate some if you have read his previous books, but some were unexpected. Must read if you are a fan of symbol and art.    Incarceron was a book my cousin ...
