25th July 2009

I was about to title this post as "A day to remember". But I guess there are too many good days to be remembered, it'd be better that I specifically put that date in title. :)

This is the first time we celebrated mum's birthday with so many close one around. One group in moderate size that formed a warm gathering dinner at eYuzu, The Eastin Hotel, I guess everyone enjoyed the food and the atmosphere that night.

The food there was good. Seriously I think I will go there again. (but of course, must ask my aunt to reserve the seats and ask for special treats again. haha.)

I hope mum was happy that night. And I hope there will be more of such gathering/ celebrations held, it's fun and at least mum will feel the 'ummph' around.

Before we went for mum's birthday dinner, S & I had gone for groceries shopping for Stepping Stones Living Centre as the donation drive for July. This donation drive has been progressing and this time we managed to receive more donations in both monetary and kind. Thanks to everyone who made this worked out for the kids at Stepping Stones :)

Travel Travel Travel

So many promotions so many cheap fares, how could we stop traveling???

Seriously, until this July I realised that I have not planned any trip for this year. Specifically I did not plan a trip to the beach this year. This made me feeling bad for sometime. I love beaches. Last year, I actually thought of having a diving lesson in Pulau Perhentian this year. Too bad we didn't really go for it. What more can I say, Vitamin M is the biggest factor that stops me. Haiks!

Airasia keeps having new promotions for airfare and hotels. And I am so desperate for a holiday. Or at least a weekend getaway. Just feel like buying a ticket without planning much. Just take leave, don't really bother if it is unpaid. Just go. But, saying is always easier than action. Words is only words if you don't really start taking action. Like me. Like many common people. Haih... I think another factor that really makes me stop is Schedule. Once I start thinking where to go, I realise I must be committed to something at sometime. In the end, plans most probably do not work out because I am just too over-analyzing.

OVER-ANALYZING. I bet most of the people share this similarity. From 'How I Met Your Mother', it actually reminds me of how myself being over-analyzing at times. I do chicken-out for certain decisions when 'thinking too much' happens. Well, that maybe good or bad depending on the outcomes.

So, I guess I am going to convince myself: Whenever you feel the ummph! to go for something, just do it before the ummph! is K.O.-ed by over-analyzing. As long as you feel good about it, you will still feel great whatever the outcome is. Don't ya think so?
