She gave me a packet of Microwaveable Pasta Snack!
Good for someone lazy to cook like me :)

Easy MAC Microwaveable Pasta Snack 3 easy Steps..

Step 1 - Pour pasta into a microwave safe dish.

And add 2/3 cup of cold water.

Happily Never After

Once upon a time, there lived a petite princess who had been so fortunate in all her undertakings. Many of young braves prince sought her in marriage.

 But she would listen to one only - son of a politician, from a very far-off country.

The young man had taken her fancy and creates a romantic illusion of living happily ever after.

They were to be married, and great rejoicings were made. The two looked forward to a long life of happiness together.

But the skies are not always blue. Until one day, the princess husband was summoned by his father to be back home in his country due to some reasons.

But the princess's husband promised he will be back the soonest possible. That.. it is just a temporary.

So, the princess wait..and wait. Days to weeks, weeks by months. No sign of him to come back.
Until the news breaks.

The princess was so devastated knowing the fact that her husband already found his new love.

The princess realize that nothing last forever. All that she have left was just their sweet memories.

She also realize that giving up doesn't always mean you are weak. Sometimes it just means your strong enough to let go.

 The princess believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go. Things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they're right. You believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things call fall together.

2012 Chinese New Year holidays, me and sisters grab the opportunity to go back hometown in Taiping, Perak.
Traffic was not that bad on the highway since the made our journey on the odd hours, 3.30am, Saturday.

Happy to see my parents and gather with my sisters.
Among the activities while I was in Taiping were..off course eat and eat, some 'gossip session' with mom and sisters.

This time around, me and sisters even 'hike' to Maxwell hill a.k.a Bukit Larut.
Well, it was not really a hiking.
Let's just say 95% taking jeep to the top of the hill and 5% hike around the top...hehe

It was my 1st time..and the view from top of hill has never been disappointing.

View from Maxwell hill, Taiping, Perak

1250m above sea level

On a clear day, you can even see the Penang bridge from this hill

The most wet place in Malaysia, with heavy rainfall annually

First 2 Weeks in 2012

Its been quite a while that I didn't do any write up.
I've been busy lately... work?? yeah off course that is a norm busy.
What I mean is not work related busy...I've been busy watching Korean drama..hehe
I am just a newbies in this Korean drama craze.

As soon as I finish work, I will quickly rush back home and starts my drama marathon.
And during weekend, I will wake up as early as I could to continue with the episodes.
I could not stop watching.. I eat whatever I could find in the fridge ..or just make myself 2 minutes instant noodles using the microwave.
Lazy me!

I don't even buy my groceries like I normally do over the weekends.
Every single minutes count, because I couldn't help but wonder what will happen next in the drama episodes.

So, in 2 weeks time, I have watched "Princess Hours & Boys Over Flowers".
Total over more than 45 episodes.

I love "Princess Hours" storyline, "Boys Over Flowers" is also a good.
I have to admit due to I have a 'tiny little' crush on Lee Min Ho in "Boys Over Flowers"..now I am in the midst of watching "Personal Taste", which is also starring  Lee Min Ho.

Next, I plan to watch 'City Hunter', also starring Lee Min Ho!
2 weeks in 2012, work is normal. Sometimes overloaded.
Have to deal with angry boss, angry colleagues..and angry me. :)
But..still manageable! hehe..
Trying to keep the positive vibes through out the year!

Since Chinese New Year is just around the corner, my team decided to go for a 'Yee Sang' toss a.k.a 'Prosperity toss'.
It is a dish made from shredded vegetables and sauce. Some mix slices of salmon and even with shredded fruits like pears and pamelo.

Yee Sang - before toss

For a prosperous year 2012!

And off course, good meal  was served right after the toss.

Just some of the dishes

Before

After

After a mouthful good lunch, everybody seated quietly in their own cubicle.
Trying so hard not to fall asleep with a full stomach!
