Recently I've been blogging on Friendster. Their blogging service had improved alot since I try it in May.
Symphonia of CLF
I've tried to make the blog title related to all the blogs I owned, so I go for the word "Symphony".
That blog is dedicated to my friends, which is the main topic I'll blog over there.
P/S: For some reason, I felt more comfortable blogging at Friendster during late nights, most of the blog post I've posted are written after 2am in the morning!!
My personal blog started in Nov 2004 archiving some of the memorable moments in life. It's also a journal of my personal development from a computer-loving teenager to becoming a digital marketer based in Tokyo. I may have a laughter or two when I read the entries again sometime in the future.

Pokemon Trading Card Game
Ystrdy I was tidy up my room, and found my Pokemon trading cards I kept for years. Though it's been about 5 years I didnt touch these, but it's still in good shape.
My deck isnt the best out there, but I guess it's still a nice one but too bad I dont have challengers. :(
The cards has 3 grades to determine it's a Common, Uncommon, or Rare card.
Common cards will have a round shape on the bottom right corner of the card. Uncommon cards will have a diamond shape, while Rare cards will have a star.
The first rare hologram card ever introduce in the game.
This cute monster is some of my best cards. It's a very good attacking and retreat card.
Back in those days, this card's price can fetch up to RM 30 or more!! This is a tough guy, but it's quite useless in attacks and it is meant for defensive use.
My favourite card of all. This has 2 versions, unfortunately this is the more crappy one, but anyway it's still can cause damage to the opponent greatly.
This card was a promotional card I get when I signup for a TCG club. Since it's quite easy to get this promo card, the price is quite low if compare to other promo cards, which the price can fetch up to RM 50.
When I'm still crazy about this game with my friends in primary school, I bought lots of the card packs in Singapore because it's cheaper over there if compare to local price(S$ 6 VS RM 14). But I ended up with lots of crappy cards. :(
The last time I play the game was probably 2 years ago with my cousin. I traded some cards with him, so I have few new cards in my collection.

What happen to me in this holiday.
It's about 1 month alrdy, since I had my school holiday. After that, I'm almost 'lost contact' with my classmates. But luckily, MSN Messenger keeps me in touch with friends. I've tried to be more 'chative' than before, as I'm willing to start chat with others instead of waiting others msg me.
Other than that, I've been more active in Friendster. I'm hooked to search for schoolmates, especially SYTs. :P
During evenings, I play football with friends, though not all the time. It's good to exercise abit, and to test my boots.
Well, the emotional event took part last week is still overshadows me, though it's hard for me to accept that my aunt leaves us just like that. I understand that's a relief for her, but when I think it nicely, why she couldnt enjoy life more and passed away without any sufferings? Sigh....
P/S: I've to admit, I gets a little emotional when managing photos of the funeral procession. What I see in the photos, is no longer exist, and that makes me very sad. :(
But anyway, I've been trying to overcome that. I understand everyone has to go when the time has come, no one can stop it or espace from it.
I had a Geography assignment right now, though it's still under planning. The research might take few days, and I also need to sort out datas and then present it.
After that, I'll be going to Taiwan from 6th Dec untill 27th Dec. Kinda long huh? I scare I cant get use to the situation so fast. School starts at 3rd Jan....
Tomorrow will have a gathering held by Students Union, it's good to meet with friends again, after all being with friends I'll feel better than staying at home all the time. ;)

New BGM: 开往春天的地铁
羽泉 "开往春天的地铁"
P/S: My sis and I like this song last time, but it has be forgotten after so long time didnt listen to it. It's nice to recall old songs back. ;)
歌曲:开往春天的地铁
歌手:羽泉 专辑:开往春天的地铁
曲 张亚东
这个冬天最后一夜
我和你都在寻找开往春天的地铁
这里不是我的世界
我等了一天一夜等开往春天的地铁
我不怕用任何代价
只是我害怕自己对付不了牵挂
我已经等你找你追你用尽所有方法
找啊找啊找啊
不过是爱了恨了分了合了变化
一时冲动的想法
擦肩而过目光交错
我依然还在追赶开往春天的地铁
我不怕受任何惩罚
只是我害怕有天你不和我说话
我被风吹得冻得醒了张不开了嘴巴
跑啊跑啊跑啊
一颗心哭了醒了丢了撕了痛吗,(别躲我了)
海泉:痛吗?(羽凡:好吗?)

Introducing my sisters' blog
CLY - "Great Expectations"
CLH - "A Bush of Daphne"
I just discovered them today when I check their MSN profiles. Haha, their language is better than me.
But the point I check their blog is to read their post regarding my aunt.
Their post are more details than mine.
CLH blogged.
CLY blogged.
This was a flower taken from my aunt's house by my sis.
Now the flowers are no longer exist and the garden doesnt look as nice is it use to be when aunt is still around...
In the memories of my late aunt....
I think I should blog something about her, for me as a rememberance and preserve this memories in somewhere more 'private' I guess.
Mdm. Cheng Soo Lan (钟素兰 女士) was my father's eldest sister in the family. She is responsible to take care of lots of things at very young age.
My grandmother passed away when my father was 7, so my aunt take over my grandmother's place to take care of my father and their brothers.
After my grandfather passed away 20 years ago, she's the eldest in the family. Because of this, my aunt was well-respected by my father's family.
Among myself and my sisters, my 2nd sis LH was the closest to my aunt. My parents were busy working that time, so my aunt help them to take care of my sis LH for some time in Penang(father was from Penang). She brought my sis go for shop almost everyday when my sis is still with her.
Actually 3 of us respected her very well. She also helped other ppl to take care of their child, a nanny.
I can remember 2 of them, Leng and Siang. Being a kid, I use to play with them.
I still remember Leng's house was just beside my aunt's house, I had to climb up a stairs to get into the house. Leng was 1 years elder than my sis LH if not mistaken.
Siang was a year younger than me, but he's a bully and always make me cry(yea I admit it).
No matter how, we all love to be with my aunt because she's just like another mother of us.
That was about 10 years ago when my aunt move to KL with her sons. They live in Selayang, not so far from where I live. We often visit her that time.
Because my aunt's sons(consider my cousins, but waaaay elder than myself) wanted my aunt to enjoy life better, so they move to Rawang in a bigger banglow.
Although the new house at Rawang is far away from my house, but we still visit her sometimes but not so frequent.
Sadly, my aunt's husband passed away 3 years ago. Since myself arent so close with him, so..... I didnt feel sad or any feeling that time. My aunt is just calm, this is what I can remember. I've forgotten because of what reason we didnt attend the funeral.
After my sisters left Malaysia to study in China, we seldom visit my aunt then. Anyhow, we still visit her place during Chinese New Year.
This year, my aunt went to hospital to do medical checkup. She discovered that she had cancer, which part I'm not very sure. My mother helped my aunt to arrange treatments and medications. She undergoes chemotherapy, and became very weak then.
Months ago, we've got the news that the cancer cell had spreaded to other body parts. One of her left finger was amputated because the cancer cell had destroy the finger structure, and also to prevent the cancer cell from spreading elsewhere.
In the mean time, my mother asked my sisters to message or call my aunt to keep in touch.
During my sisters' summer holiday in July, they came back. We had a big family dinner together. That time, she's still ok but doesnt look so good though.
During the last few months, aunt was having difficulty in breathing. We suspect that there's some prob with her lung, although doctor couldnt check anything wrong.
Last week, she was discharged from hospital. The situation is getting worse.... the doctor predicted she couldnt make it so far....
I still visit her when she was in hospital, and she changed alot when she discharged back home, is like become another person. Sigh.... it's so sad that she'd become so thin and no energy.
I cried at that night, knowing that her time left not much, and my sisters miss her so much.
Elder sis LY asked me print few photos, and a message for her, while LH sent a letter for her.
Last Sunday, 13th Nov, my aunt passed away peacefully at 10am. I only able to visit her at night because father's working. Well..... it's so sad that see her placed inside the coffin...
I planned to goto Melaka on Tuesday, but have to cancel it to attend aunt's funeral.
For these past few days I kept visit her house. I'm heart-broken to see someone I respected gone forever. My mother says it's a relief for her from her suffering.
That night, I hardly able to sleep. I think I only fall asleep at 4.15am, and then wake up at 6.10am.
Suprisingly, today I didnt feel tired.
Around 8.30am, there's a music band plays the funeral march. Music really has the effect to alter one's emotion, many visitors broke into tears when listening to the sad music, including myself.
I tried to control myself stop crying, but when think about my sisters' reaction in China, I just felt sad and sorry for them. I went there to pay the last respect on behalf my sisters, so it's like having 'extra' sadness to cope with the situation.
Aunt's body were taken to Petaling Jaya Crematorium to be cremated. We follow the bus to the crematorium to pay the last respect.
You see, I've tried to control myself from crying but when think about my sisters, I just couldnt stop it.
The saddest part of the entire ceremony, was the time my aunt's coffin are placed into the furnace, seperated from us forever and ever........
姑姑,希望您在天之灵,能顺利归西方极乐世界,保佑我们大家。永别了!

Zboard Keyboards
Zboard is a keyboard manufacturer in the US. They produces high-end gaming keyboards, like this one.
I like it's cool design, and other than the keyboard above, they've also made game-features keyboards too.
Personally, I like the Civilization III keyboard.
How much it cost? If I convert the price into MYR(Malaysia Ringgit), that'll be around.... RM 75 for a high-end gaming keyboard.

Flickr friend - Girl Flyer
Before going to play treak or trick ...
Originally uploaded by Girl flyer.
Her name is Monica, she's from Hong Kong and recently moved to California, USA.
Most of her photos are based on skylines, and I must say I'm impressed with her photos.
Isnt she adorable from the pic above? ;)
Hari Raya
Let me explain a while what is "Raya" means. It is a festival which Muslims from worldwide celebrates together after 30 days of Ramadhan-fasting. It's one of the biggest festive celebration in Malaysia held annualy.
Today, went to my friend Hilmi's house to celebrate Raya with bunch of our schoolmates. Though his house technically is not so far from my house, but it took me awhile to reach there.
This is the 1st time I went to friend's house to celebrate Raya, so felt kinda awkward eventhough I'm familiar with most of the ppl around there.
I had my lunch there, Hilmi's mother cooked typical Malay dishes, like rendang and so on. I enjoy the food, but it's quite spicy I think, I just walk to his house from a distance... definitely not good for my digestion.
I played PS2 with friends, Naruto fighting game. Heck, it isnt the best fighting game but we sure having great time playing it.
Anyhow, I still prefer traditional games. I dunno how to play congkak, so Hilmi's father took out a carrom board let us play. Carrom is a game that's quite similiar to snooker, and it's legal for 'underage' to play. ;)
I had experience playing Carrom, so it's fun to play again and play with fellow friends. Hah, played 2 games and scored one by hitting in a crucial winner. XD
It's a great experience to celebrate Raya with friends, and having the chance to meet with fellow friends during the holiday!! ;)

Maksim Albums
This post, is dedicated to Maksim, the Croatian piano player.
Since his first album The Piano Player, I've been collecting his albums for past few years.
Many think that Maksim's the type of artist that only girls like, mainly is because he's cool and handsome, but I like him not because his coolness/handsome(unless I'm gay), is his passion of music I like. The way he plays.... is just like he's sync with the piano itself.
Anyhow, there's some ppl criticize him for misleading youngsters about classical music, but then his music style shows how wonderful to play classical with the taste of modern music.
These albums are original copies, I think it's worth it to buy original copies to support Maksim.
Of course, there must be someone who made the song and let Maksim perform. The mastermind behind Maksim's music is Tonci Huljic, a Croatian composer.
He is famous classical crossover music composer, he has composed songs for Bond, the crossover string band, and WILD, also another crossover string band.
These 3 pieces of Maksim's songs, are the work of Tonci Huljic, and these are my favourites.
I'm so glad that I can enjoy Maksim's music, and I'll be looking foward for the next album!!
