The Holiday

 "Iris, in the movies we have leading ladies and we have the best friend. You, I can tell, are a leading lady, but for some reason you are behaving like the best friend." - Arthur Abbott, The Holiday.

Well Arthur, I'm not Iris, but I've always been a best friend. I'm good at that. I don't know how to behave like a leading lady.

...but Arthur, if being a best friend can make me happy, at least for today, the present, shouldn't I continue being one?

Well, they say that happiness is not a fish that you can catch. May be I should stop fishing.

 Ah... life, always in shades of gray.

Luna

The same old satellite, this time taken from the streets of Ao Nang, Krabi last weekend. They say it's the closest to the earth in 20 years. It doesn't really make any difference for me, coz it has always been closest to my heart (chewah!). Here goes LUNA, in different poses.

When the earth rattles...

Part of me is grateful that I no longer live in Canterbury, NZ (but I miss the place so much). At the same time I'm so worried thinking of friends and everyone there. A 6.5 earthquake rumbled Christchurch  (again!) yesterday around lunchtime there, where people are out an about in the city. Alhamdulillah, the friends I get to contact are all safe but they have to endure countless aftershocks. Death toll in Christchurch so far is 75 and counting. It breaks my heart to see the city I love crumbled. Please pray for them. May God be gentle to them.

I remember back then, just within an hour after my 1st registration at my previous university there, the department secretary brought me to meet a technician who was also one of the safety staff there. Evert, the handsome technician first and foremost told me that NZ is within an earthquake zone, and if anything should happen, or in the event of fire, these are the steps I should take... yada yada yada.. a long list of things there. I never really thought it was THAT important (although i admit i was impressed that they really take safety very seriously). Now I know why. Things can happen and we just don't know when.

these boots are made for walking

Saya tak ada Jimmy Choo's, Blahnik atau Louboutin nak tayang. Cuma ini obsesi terkini. Heh.

 

My first hiking shoes, LaSportiva Typhoon GTX. Kawan saya kata macam nama kereta. Saya baru nak kenal apa itu waterproof anfibio leather & Impact Brake System outsole, ingatkan kereta aje ada braking system! Kasut pun ada ghopernyer.
