Zhang Jia Jie, China

Just came back from an one week trip to China with my grandmother and I'm right at K.L's home now. Physically in Malaysia but mentally I'm still at China! I gained lots of knowledge travelling with bunch of old folks fyi I was the youngest in our group. Went to 3 places in Hunan Province (Zhang Jie Jie, Phoenix Town and Chang Sha). According the locals, it is said that Hunan is always rain. Out of 360 days the place rain for 200 days. That is not a good sign for tourists like us -_- Other than this, distance in between the places that we visited was far thus we wasted loads of time sitting in the bus. I guess that it is travelling with tour group and especially to China ;) Here is some info of where is Zhang Jia Jie:

Zhang Jia Jie (湖南张家界国家森林公园), the most notable geographic features of the park are the pillar-like formations that are seen throughout the park. They are the result of many years of erosion. The weather is moist year round, and as a result, the foliage is very dense. Much of the erosion which forms these pillars are the result of expanding ice in the winter and the plants which grow on them. These formations are a distinct hallmark of Chinese landscape, and can be found in many ancient Chinese paintings. One of the park's quartz-sandstone pillars, the 3,544-foot Southern Sky Column, had been officially renamed "Avatar Hallelujah Mountain" (阿凡达-哈利路亚山) in honor of the eponymous film in January 2010.

According to park officials, photographs from Zhang Jia Jie inspired the floating Hallelujah Mountains seen in the film. The film's director and production designers said that they drew inspiration for the floating rocks from mountains from around the world, including those in the Hunan province. (Wikipedia)

p/s: hope to visit big city in China like Beijing and Shanghai in near future!

Melacca getaway

It's so cool travel with them. I went to Melacca with sister and zhu seng for 2D1N and ONLY had spent about 500, totally worth. We stayed at some guest house around Jonker Street and then loiter with a bundle of laughs. Pictures paint thousand words:

What else, a couple picture *love*

Nice Gula Melaka Chendol and A Moy in Sam Suk Gong

Yummeh chicken rice, asam fish and coconut drink beside of Sam Suk Gong

So true for me

我改變不了這個環境，

就只能去適應環境，

因為無論在什麼時候，

都是適者生存，

人只有融會貫通，

才能走得更遠。

Bill Gates speech: 11 rules your kids did not and will not learn in school

Rule 1: Life is not fair - get used to it!

Rule 2: The world doesn't care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good about yourself.

Rule 3: You will NOT make $60,000 a year right out of high school. You won't be a vice-president with a car phone until you earn both.

Rule 4: If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a boss.

Rule 5: Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your Grandparents had a different word for burger flipping: they called it opportunity.

Rule 6: If you mess up, it's not your parents' fault, so don't whine about your mistakes, learn from them.

Rule 7: Before you were born, your parents weren't as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you thought you were. So before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parent's generation, try delousing the closet in your own room.

Rule 8: Your school may have done away with winners and losers, but life HAS NOT. In some schools, they have abolished failing grades and they'll give you as MANY TIMES as you want to get the right answer. This doesn't bear the slightest resemblance to ANYTHING in real life.

Rule 9: Life is not divided into semesters. You don't get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you FIND YOURSELF. Do that on your own time.

Rule 10: Television is NOT real life. In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop and go to jobs.

Rule 11: Be nice to nerds. Chances are you'll end up working for one.

I'm not a loser~

Haha sorry for being such a slacker and super lack of updates.

Well you know sometimes I'm just kinda of jealous people having so many things to blog about. I do have a wonderful life but guess that I'm really not good in expressing myself and also afraid that readers will laugh at my grammar mistakes. Friends used to tell me who cares about whatsoever grammar or structure when it comes to your personal blog. Yeaa! SSo er finally I ended my fucking internship last week. We are suppose to do our intern for 5 months but we ended earlier for about 1 month eh? You know, what I can say is I tried my best in everything I do during my intern and as a newbie of this fucking working world, please be aware and more polite when you guys speak. Intern does not mean we are not human right? You might think that we are unintelligent and slower than others but please really you should mind your fucking mouth and guide us more. Okay whatever, paiseh paiseh, its over and I know I should not start a post with insults since the last post? Anyway holiday get started and like usual I do have many planned trips ahead: Melacca- China- Sabah- Thailand. Look like they are all "cheap" places but whooaaho, going with my loved ones make these places priceless!

p/s: "cheap thing no good thing". was so happy yesterday to get cheap body waxing but my skin is so itchy right now? so guess that its true, "cheap thing no good thing"

til then

xoxo
