Triumph in the skies 冲上云霄
I just finished re watching this series <<Triumph in the skies 冲上云霄>>, a 2003 production from TVB, tells story about life of pilots and flight attendants who work for Solar Airway and creates awareness of aviation.
The making of triumph in the skies:

I like the casts very much, especially Francis Ng, Flora Chan and Joe Ma. I especially like the love story between Sam and Zoe & Vincent and Belle... The love stories, the fate game and the rest of stories are just nice and love the scenes they took from Rome.
The thing that surprises me the most is I teared a lot while watching this series. When it showed the scene in Rome, I just couldn't help thinking about my past in Rome... I knew I already moved on...but every moment of me and my ex was still very clear in my mind. We went to Trevi Fountain and I made a wish. Unfortunately, my wish never come true and in fact, it ended up in an awful way. However, I never blame or being hatred. Because I believe in fate. If two people are not destined together, no matter how much effort we put on, still, we will be separated.
I was making my wish...

I believe in fate. You may find me silly. Although I have a few fail relationships, still, I believe I will find the right person some day in my life..Someone who will take care of me for the rest of my life.. In fact, I am doing affirmation about it every night before I sleep. Haha. May my love will come true... :)

Dress Testing
Went to Oxford Street after attending a seminar in London. My favorite shops: Mango and Zara! I guess this is my first time shopping in London since I arrived in the UK in January. I couldn't really afford to buy all those dresses though. I manage to get one...(not in the picture). But I will get all these soon...Haha...All well prepared for SUMMER!! Retail therapy makes me happy!

Oxford
Think it is time for me to start doing some budget travelling in the UK as I am a student now. This is something that I keep reminding myself. Being a student, the only pro is having plenty of time. The con is you no longer have income. It took me about two months to switch my mood from a working professional to student. Although UK is no longer new to me, as I had been to some of the places and the buildings are quite identical, still it is nice to have a day out in the weekend.
Anyway, yesterday I went to Oxford with my fellow Malaysian friend who I just met a few weeks ago. She is Mei from Seremban. I was happy to have her with me as I am not really good in reading map.
As usual, I am a bit vain and like to take pictures everywhere I go. Remember when I was young, the only thing I know about Oxford is the university. In fact, it is like another dream comes true as I have the opportunity to visit there.
The fun thing hanging out with Malaysian is we share the same language, and we can 'blow water'(吹水）(means talk nonsense) most of the time. I was once commented by a French that 'you Asian people like to talk and laugh loudly'. Well, I have to admit that this is something we like to do. So as usual, if you hangout with me, I think you have to bear with my laughter..haha.
Along the trip, we met a Malay lady who when I saw her, I straight away can tell that she is from Malaysia with the way she wrapped her 'tudung' (scarf). She was sitting on the rowing boat and told us that she felt like she was the 'Maharaja' (empress). Lol!
Showing below are some of my best shots in Oxford.
I took this shot before leaving to Oxford. Love it!
Cheers!
Time to take nap
Here I jump! I always like to do jumping shot!

Speed Dating in Msia Public Uni?
Was having drink with SJ in University of Sheffield Student Union pub yesterday and saw about this speed dating thing. In fact, it was actually a speed dating going on. Candle light is everywhere. Kinda romantic ambience. See student were coupled up and spoke to each other in their little space. As in the advert, this speed dating is for Postgraduate and Mature Students. I was trying to quickly snap some pictures but being forbid-ed by SJ. Haha.
Right, the only point I am thinking..Hmm...This will never happen in any public universities in Malaysia due to the Islamic state unless you are studying in those private colleges. Muslims are the majorities in public universities though. And I guess this is prohibited according to Syariah law.I remembered that time when I was studying in University Putra Malaysia, all our prom nights were organised 'outside the university'. We usually will reserved a ballroom in hotel and have this activity. It has nothing wrong but it will be imposible for you to book any place in the University as you will never get approved.
Guess this is just the way it is. Just a thought.... ^.^

General Election: UK vs Malaysia
I am glad that I have an opportunity to see how election is carried out in the UK, the other country apart from Malaysia, shame that I am not able to make it to register myself as the voter for UK general election.
I love my country very much especially the food, no doubt, Malaysia is a food heaven, name the food and you can find it somewhere. With no disrespect to any parties, I would like to point out several major differences which I had noticed.
1. Open debate
I managed to watch parts of the debate and I find that they were debating about the national issues rather personal attacking the opponents which sometimes happens in Malaysian politician debates.
The debate script and some of the videos are available on line. However, do you ever find that Malaysian politician debate script available for download? Anyway, I do not think people will be interested to download as well as there were more 'crap' rather than national issues. Even though they debate national issues, still some religious or racist issues will pop up which made the debate quite annoying. Sometimes, I as a Malaysian, I have no idea how to introduce myself to people from the other country, am I Malaysian or am I chinese from Malaysia? I like our PM's idea about 'One Malaysia' but how feasible is this vision if his and his government are still doing things on their way?
2. Open media
Yesterday while waiting for the result, I watched a show called 'Channel 4's Alternative Election Night'. The hosts were openly commenting and making a bit of jokes on the political leaders. I think this meant no disrespect, perhaps was another way to increase the entertainment elements to report the election situation. Straight away I told SJ, if we have the same show in Malaysia, guess what, tomorrow you will probably see these people who make this show are jailed under ISA act.
3. Open election
Besides hundreds of voters were turned away from polling stations and police called to deal with queues as the voting deadline passed, I haven't heard something about 'phantom voters' (which happens quite often during Malaysia election).
It is all about the 'open-ness'. I think it is a bit ideal for Malaysia to achieve the 100% open-ness. I am not sure whether this is due to the culture or people are not willing to switch or change their mindset. Another thing I can see is 'change' is the key thing of any campaign agenda. Same thing happen to US, Malaysia and now the UK.
I am quite anxious to know who will be the next PM of the UK.
