A winner without a medal

在偶然的一个活动上,导师给我们看了这个video。看了后，没想到那个观后感是如此强烈，泪已在眼眶打转了。只知道看完过后，让我思考的是，先别说打一场战，你有曾尽心尽力去做每一件事？而做每一件事的当中，你是先去做然后才想，还是想了很多才去做？

这位台湾女跆拳道选手让我看到的是，就算她知道她的脚韧带坏了，踢的每一脚都是痛苦的，她还是坚持要把这场战打下去。苏丽文说：“在奥运殿堂，死掉都值得。”因为她以前就常幻想，如果能在奥运金牌战获胜的那一刻停止呼吸，是最美好不过的事。她明知她的脚是不可能如愿的操作，她还是坚持到底。我们也是不是应该有像她这样的精神，面对每一件事？

我想，不是每一个人都能像她有这样的勇气去应战的，至少我们不会去打一场没把握的战。但想回起来，什么战是一定必胜的，那做的每一件事一定要先考虑会不会赢才做吗？天下没有永远的赢家，那我们到底在战些什么。若太注意成果，我们就会忽略过程，太在意胜败，我们就失掉了应战精神。

从她身上看到，我想很多时候，我们把重心放错了地方，在比赛中赢了固然是一种肯定；输的当中自己若有付出一百把仙的努力，也亦是另一种肯定，这场战你还是赢家，因为你赢了自己。

成功的人不会为自己找借口，苏丽文，我看到了。

九月了

我回来了！ 时间有够快的，没有留神，又过了几个月。

去了一趟杭州之旅，整个旅程身心疲劳，但每过的一天却是如此充实。其实，旅行有时会累是正常的，但累的脑袋放空确是第一次。出国的这几天，睡眠时间加起来都不超过15个小时，但整个过程及经历却可能一生中只能经历仅有的一次。

深呼吸*
不知是不是睡眠品质不好，加上心情容易有起伏，我确实有点生活紧张。最近做了个实验，心理学家把我分析的有点赤裸。算出来的结论是说，一个高高在上的女生，对自己的目标感到模糊，加上性情冷漠的个性，有点让人感到无情。哎，怎么把我说成好像生活在自己世界里的王后呢，我有那么恐怖吗？我承认有时是比较酷一点，但不代表我无情啊，给点时间我，我只是有点慢热=)

这是在杭州游走夜市时，惊喜发现的一本小册子。虽然在讨价时输给了泼辣老板娘，心里是有点不服气，但算了，千金难买心头好，我还是乖乖付钱吧。老板娘，算你走运了！


想念我的朋友，真的不好意思，本姑娘最近又为自己作战了，所以会少上线。收到你们的msg,实在有令我感动。若还是想念我，请留短言给我吧，我会尽快回复！



爱你们的东主*

Bangkok 2009

We hate to admit that the mask somehow makes us suffocating after wearing it for awhile.
What to do, Moy insists that we should always consider 'Protection First.'

While camwhoring,
Moy keeps emphasizing, ' no need to smile ladies, cannot see your face OK'

Three KL invaders arrived at the loo in bangkok airport.

It was already 6pm BKK time.

What a room!

We, overexcited for our deluxe size of bed!

Three ladies in a room, how we miss that atmosphere.
Powder, eyeliner, perfume, slippers, all we scream for before stepping out the door.





Morning mist, not in bkk, but in my camera.




What do we do the most in the city?

Walk on the street...



Walk to the mall....



Walk to the market...




and letting the sore feet cry themselves to find a place with cheap beer, and Cheers.





We hate bangkok JAM!





When hungry,
we would just eat anything at any stores/street stores we could find nearby.

We love tom yum kung, and the girls prefer the clear soup type.

And i love this particularly, Siew Yuk!

Noodle at Doo Dee Shop,Siam

This noodle has given us a great surprise, the soup is very good for appetite.
Sweet + Sour + Spicy = very Sexy taste!

Too bad the portion is too small!




Egg muffin, Mennon Store, by the street in Siam

Freshly out from the oven, it's a superb dessert!
Soft and puffy!

I call this a flinstone's pot.

It's too dark to eat at the valley,so we cant see whats inside the pot,
and we have no idea how to eat. The pot serves with 2 plate of raw veggies,
so we presume we shud be eating the normal steamboat way,
so Rach dumps everything into the pot, yet the pot is too small to fit.
Then only we realise the veggie should go in bit by bit together with the glass noodle,
and not one big chunk of veggies!
Its so so so HOT eating by the street, but the beef soup is good!




Aww..
the blended lemongrass with honey is certainly a cool drink to sip on a boiling weather in BKK.



But rach still loves the Thai Vitagen the best!


Its time to do some shopping..

Colorful bangles..

A colour each for souvenir?

or A bottle of....Umbrella?

The leather goods are pretty creative for a souvenir, too.




Mmmm...Steffy is in love with the multi-coloured straps!
But she din buy in the end, it's too fragile to wear:(

A pair of Froggies for you??




or consider me?
oops.. i mean the reddish 'lam ah chan' style of glasses :P




Steffy's dissapointed face is telling us she can't find anything she loves from the market.
So moy suggests 'lets keep looking.'

Rainy day on Chaktuchak rather gets us down.



Heading to Swensen for a love bite!

A little gift and a special venue for a birthday lady.




What's your flavour?
Ice creams are ecstacy!



The guy with the 'Star Ring' in his hand is good, his one-man show put a very big smile on everyone's face! Especially the birthday girl,
she still remembers him from the last trip we did last year.
Haha, how i miss his blushing cheek when i told him, 'eh, my fren likes you,and she remembers you from the last trip!'

Happy Birthday woman, one more year with Grace!



Besides shopping and eating, there is one bigger mission to achieve, that is to do the prayer.








Flowers are seen everywhere in Bangkok, especially near the temple or anywhere you can find the buddha statues.




We are given a few insense sticks and 2 candles, and told they're for the prayers of love buddha. Since it's given for free, why hesitate more?




This is where you should do your prayers for love and relationship:)




If you are a strong believer in the four-faced buddha, please do not miss this in Erawan.

Look at the tiny shoes!
Where are these little owners?





There we see the owners of the tiny shoes in the temple, saying prayer for the ceremony!

After all the 'noble' purposes of the trip are done,
one essential event is never to be missed!

Thai Massage!





We find this place in a mall,
it's rather a clean and comfy space.

The price is cheap, it costs only 270 baht per hour for a foot massage.

However, i just can't stand the way they clean my feet before proceeding to the massage!
A few alcohol sheets to wipe off the dirt of your feet that been walking for like...errr a hundred mile? not even washing with water and start applying lotion to it?
Ohhhh noo....can i wash my feet first in the loo before we start?






Btw,
This is what we do on a 5 days 4 night trip.

Nothing expensive, everything is just simple and spontaneous,
and its truly a joyful trip with the ever best companions.

We finally made it happened, ladies!
The bond never ends!




The night at bangkok is really mesmerizing,






but not without YOU!
