A Fund Raising Bazaar

Went to a fund raising bazaar recently at St. Louise Church. There arefoods, vegetables, stationaries, crockeries and etc for sale.

The crowd was good. Children were seen enjoying ice sticks and cakes. Look at this overgrown child. We, the adult, were also enjoying the food especially the sambal prawn that come with the nasi lemak. It was really yummy.

St. Louise church is the first church I know way back during my school days and it never change much. The structure and the interior is still the same. Looking at it brings back many many fond memories of the good old school days.

Relationship

Well, the 'before' and 'after' holiday syndrome has finally wear off and now, am back to reality to carry on with life. It is time to make money again and start saving for the next trip. Ya...I will do just that, lols...

I read from one of the blogger MUN, about a beautiful relationship that lasted 18 years and it reminded me of my very own relationship that I decided to call it quit recently after about 19 years. Why, you may asked. Many people asked too. Well, it was just too stressful to carry on and I am glad with the decision I finally made and have no regrets over it and I dont feel sorry about it too.

As for the big question mark, no point questioning about 'him' but instead, 'why I did it and is it because I hated him?'. For my case, it wasn't 'hate'. It was just that the relationship was too suffocating and I really needed some breathing space. Of cause calling it quit just because of wanting to breath better is not really a reasonable reason. Sure there are more other reasons to the decision too. Whatever it is, I hope it is for better.

Nothing much changed since the breaking-up. Apart from being able to breath better, I now have more oxygen to keep me healthy and happy, hahaha. At this moment, I am very focus on living healthy. I eat well, sleep well and not forgetting, exercise well too.

Being healthy, happy and stress free is my current goal now. Life is too short and we never know what is in store for us next. So, just stay healthy and be happy.

Angkor-Wat

This is the finale temple for us, the 'Angkor Wat'. There was a beautiful coincident here when we arrived. A rainbow appeared over the sky and the rain stopped just in time for us to have our photo taken with the beautiful reflection of 'Angkor Wat' in the pond. Better still, trying to wrap the rainbow, walking on the rainbow bridge with the rainbow on top of us is really great and the feeling so good just as we finish taking photo a heavy down pour and we actually walking some part of the temple with hat(compliment from the guide) under the rain. I must elaborate here... 'Angkor Wat' is the grandest and most sublime of all the Khymer temples. A city by itself with a total area of 200 hectares. The scale of Angkor Wat enabled the Khmer to give full expression to religious symbolism. There were four big basin to stabilise the structure of the Angkor Wat. All was drained off water due to mosquitoes infestation. Most of the statues of Buddha was vandalised/stolen of heads, hands or legs. Well I must said we were all a little disappointment here because we are not allowed to climb to the highest point of 'Angkor Wat' which was closed for renovation purposes. We did have fun though and enjoyed ourselves so much that even being drenched in rain don't seems like much of a problem.

After Angkor Wat, we went for another session of massage. Self paid. The last itinerary of our day (also our tour) was dinner with Cambodian traditional show. That pretty much wraps up our Siem Reap tour.

This is a portrait of our tour taken with our tour guide and the driver. To spice up our Cambodia trip a little more, the five of us went on a 'TuTu Trishaw' ride to the discos to have some workout done (compensating for the gym session we missed back home).

Leaving Siem Reap at 8am the next day and arrived back in Kuala Lumpur safe and sound. Chaires's driver, Aziz, was already waiting for us when we got out of the immigration.

Siem Reap (Day 2) Continued...

As per my last entry, we continued our tour on Day 2 to the next temple, 'Ta-phorm', a monastery. The movie 'Tomb Raider' was shot here.

The complexity of its layout was made worst by its' partly collapsed state......and the trees that intertwined itself amongst the ruins plus a greater mass of thinner & smoother grey roots which grows into various crevices in between the ruins.

This is where Angelina Jolie jumped down in Tomb Raider... and ended up in Dubai, hahaha...

and we'll end up in Anchor Wat in my next entry.

Siem Reap (Day 2)

Day 2 started with an early breakfast before our tour to Angkor Thom. Our tourguide, Mr Sip, was already waiting for us in the lobby when we are done with breakfast. To get into Angkor Thom, we need to pass thru some villages on dirt roads. We were then given an entry pass to all the various temples around Angkor Thom each. We arrived at the South gate before long and was greeted by two rows of statues resting on dragons.

One the left, it was the symbol of God with smiling face... And on the right, it was demons with huge popping eyes. Here is the elephant terrace that led us to the 'Bayon Temple'.Inside the temple, most of the towers are carved with four faces which are worshipped by the Hindus & Buddhists. We met 2 young monks and took some photos with them. Before we do that we have to know the rules and that is, there shall not be any kind of body contact.

Here is a photo of me rubbing nose & kissing Buddha's face...Hehehe... It is not what you see it is. Just a camera trick that did it, cute isn't it?

****

After Bayon Temple, we were supposed to go on a hot air balloon. But unfortunately, the weather was rather bad that day. We only get to take photos of it instead. So sad... Well, next will be 'Ta-Phorm' temple and 'Angkor-wat'. But it will have to be in the next entry. Tired la.....bye for now, have a nice day.
