Lost concentration

I have been blur for the past 1 week. I don't know what happen to me, I did not struggle, I just let my body adjust itself, It must have some major adjustment which I believe it would be good. Concentration span is really short and I find my mind to wanders alot lately and morning meditation has cut down to zero. Lazy lah I know, but he last time I meditate, i feel that the energy is not strong, so i also feel no motivation ..... 

Today I over shot for the road to andrea's school, actually last two days also over shot. I have to made U-turn for the both days. [mind wandering]. Yesterday I went and buy bread & drinks for my renovation workers at the petrol station, one man walking behind my car and i cannot see him, i REVERSED! Luckly i did not kill him. Just then i saw one car beside me looking at me and shake his damn head (Indian). I ignore him and started to reverse again, one FAST car just drove past behind me. AIYOO .. what happen .. I don't know... [mind is not wandering at that time]. At night had terrible headache and stomachache after reading one article on FB [suddenly and I don't know what happen too... hmph]

Last week was mothercare sale, I bought many toys and clothes for the kids. The clothes that I bought for ben is 12-18months! What was I THINKING?! Hmph ... I was too lazy to go and change, hence I ask the maid to let ben wear as much as possible. Ben is already 20 months :( My mind still set ben at 1 year old! Why am I so forgetful and no concentration? Third eye is block maybe, however my physical eye is not too good either! aiyoo.. when will the energy get balanced?! I keep feeling there is dark energy around me, but i don't know what it is. Need to chant liao! coming to 2 weeks is getting too much!

Eye check up

Since 3 years ago, I follow hubby to Kimpo-do optical at KLCC isetan for eye checkup + making glasses. I find that their price is quite OKay after considering isetan rebate + discounts. They have many frames from japan available there. Maybe it's just me, I like to buy things from 'big' company because I hate negotiating price and also afraid of the inferior quality they offered + warranty they've promised. 

I need to re-stock my daily contact lens, I went to paris miki because they have offer for contact lens [3 pairs extra compared to other shop]. The sales man ask me to take acuvue trueye instead, hence he gave me 5 pairs to try on. It was not very comfy, see some glares, headache after 2 days (maybe it's not the eye). went back to the shop on Monday, he advised me to check my power, hence remove my contact lens for 30min and start checking - results? -100 increased on my right eye! 

IT FREAKS ME OUT!! I'm very worried and unhappy. I blame myself for using my iphone before sleeping & after waking up. I know I shouldn't do that but I still doing it (self-punishment). I've asked hubby to bring me back to kimpo-do to just re-confirm my power increased. I'm glad that hubby make time for me because i was feeling uneasy the whole day. We arrived kimpo-do at 8.30pm - results? only -25 increased, i asked him to double check and he explain many things to me.
1. Red or Green clearer - red pop out [power given is less]. green pop out [power given too high]
2. When I need to change my glasses/ replace new power for my contact lens - when we cannot read line 0.8
3. I actually do not have dominant eye [i don't know if this happens after the spiritual restructuring or it has been like that all the while]

I'm so glad I do not have to do anything to my power. I will just order my old power for contact lens and drop that trueye too! hpmh ....nightmare!!!

Internet Workshop 2

Yeah, i went to more Internet workshops although previous class doesn't seems to help me much. When I'm in that hole, I seem to enjoy digging, what's wrong with me. hahaha ... having nearly 30% increment helps me feel much better after spending 5 figure in this so-called money making Internet channel. What I've learn: 
1. Nano, Macro & Fusion sites
2. driving traffic + making money

That's the core of it. 1st workshop was with Jazlai, 2nd workshop with JohanMok. They claim that JohanMok is the maters for all the Internet gurus that you have heard of. Hmm.. I really dunno leh, but what Johan had shared is really more to the basics and from there I can expand to what I really like doing. 1st workshop is like forcing to sell his product - until today I did nothing on selling because I don't like Internet marketing niche :(

My Thoughts: I learn alot of basics for this workshop, It's like prayer being answered. Initially i wanted so badly to go for NST Internet workshop but it was FULL. This is more like NST Internet workshop talks about SEO, what to do and inform about current situation (google is closing down ALOT of Internet marketing stuff - you tube and websites are being shut down without informing). I hope my site will not be shut down after typing their names on my blog, hahaha.... whatever it is, making money online is not that simple. Many hard work and strategy needed. Nothing is easy anyway - for a start. this workshop has spiced up my life, giving me some new stuff to do :)

Teachers along my life

I'm really grateful to have alot of 'teachers' who taught me little things about life. I have good foundation of receiving advise because my dad always tell me that he is just an average student and always ask himself why other people are better than him (in all aspect). One thing my dad taught me is to ASK, there is no need to be shy because this is only ONCE that you do not know. Many people dare not ask and they would not know the answer for the rest of their life (in all aspect). My dad gave me confidence when i need encouragement and I always open for advise and ever ready to learn from other people. Thank you DAD! 

With this approach since young, I met with numerous helpful people. I was not the best student in school but was manage to get above average score during my school days. UPSR 3A, PMR 5A, SPM 3A, A-levels 1A(maths) [total 3 subjects], Uni 1st class Honors. I hardly study because i hate sitting on the desk, i don't enjoy biology and history because they are very dry to me. I don't like to spend hours to just solve 1 addmaths problem. My approach to study? Give me the essence, give me the solution - i will work backwards. All along school days, all my best pals are my teachers, they fed me with all the essence & solutions - they are my angels. They are my noble people. 

My dad is a very result orientated person. He is GM of one company, hence working life to me is just performance & end results. I don't have people relationship skills. I started working in 2004 august (one month after my graduation) and obviously I'm very result orientated - money wise. Dad advise me to take whatever job i can get and aim for a better one next time, i took that advise and begin my career with ISO consultant. This led me to IBM job then Citibank and back to IBM regional job. ISO consultant, IBM country role and citibank working environment is very result orientated - I learnt very fast and is very satisfied with my pay too. All my bosses are like my dad - capable and results orientated and they took care of me by giving me advise to perform better. Everyone of them. 

2008 I came back to IBM for regional role. That is where my steep learning curve begins. I hated all my boss because they are not results orientated [in my view only - cos this is a sales department] - they put their 100% focus on making sales, hence my role to them is just secondary to the business. I gave birth to ben and there is another steep learning curve. What is the leanings that I cannot open up to since 2008?? People relationship skills. I kid you not! I learnt that 3 years by hating everyone in the department and affected my personal life - until I scream for help - hoping GOD would shed some light. I read so many books, I attended so many spiritual workshops and I meditate. 

I recovered in 2011 - physically and mentally. Looking back, all my bosses since 2008 had showed me excellent people relationship skills (last time i look down on them because to me they only make good relationship but cannot do their work well - I'm so wrong and I want to apologize for this judgement). GOD is really kind to send Noble People to me all my life and I got blinded because of giving birth to andrea in 2007 - my life seems to be out of the healthy radar. I'm so glad that I've picked myself up now and will continue  learning from my 'teachers'. Believing in yourself really works and abundance is really with everyone - learn to use your own power, you can get all the things you want in life. 

I kid you not! I purposely set my salary target to have 20K increment for year 2011 because T. Harv Eker said shoot for the stars. Today my mgr said instead of 4.5% increment - i got  more. It hit my 20K increment for year 2011! I just want you to know, you design your life, your destiny is on your hand, claim back your personal power. All of us should be living like heaven on earth - we should help each other when we need each other - Humans has ups and downs, I'm ready for reach out - I hope i can help people who was like me, blinded for the past 3 years. May abundance be with everyone :) God Bless

4th Birthday

It's amazing how andrea have grown. I feel a sense of achievement, seeing my girl grown so much from a baby till she is now semi-independent. By 5 years old, she will be needing mummy or daddy less - as per child development milestone. I need to recondition myself of this change, so that i won't feel depress or keep thinking of the past - how I used to hold her in my arms or how she used to listen to me or she always find time to make me happy. All these are my treasured moment, kids grow up so quickly and I shall look forward to other treasured moment instead of living in the past :)

I took half day off, sent andrea to school and pickup cupcakes from wondermilk. Then rushed to Daiso, hoping to get candle "Number 4", saw the number candles in Daiso 1 Utama but do not have number 4. No luck! Headed back to the school - reach at 10.30am. Teacher got me an ugly tray - it cannot fit all 72 cupcakes somemore, sigh ... Initially I thought of putting it on the table, but the teachers thinks tray will be more convenient when distribute. No choice - have to listen to people who own the place. 


At night we went to Fukuya, the only place we like - with private room. Just Heavenly make us Melody - Sanrio cake. Andrea has many present. School gave her a present (fridge magnet) & her friend jaime draw her some picture for andrea's birthday, so sweet of her. I bought her Melissa & Doug Band-in-a-box and play pretend clothes - police, vet and nurse (that's all they have). Daddy bought her Ikea kitchen set. Kim bought her princess set, Pei bought her peter rabbit book, mum&dad bought her make up set. I hope she enjoy her birthday!

Melissa & Doug

ELC [Early Learning Centre] have been my favorite educational toys, I still remember buying lots of it since andrea was born - usually bought it from ThinkToys and just 1 year ago mothercare carries it. we love the material and quality - most importantly my kids love it. Andrea is 4yr old, and can you imagine how many ELC stuff sitting in our house now? Over 4 years we have almost 20-30% of the store items in our house now. 

I'm so happy that Melissa & Doug has made its way to KL. I saw it from mothercare bangsar & also ThinkToys. It has more variety for me now to buy new stuff for benjamin. Recently I've bought:
1. Abacus - Prefer this over the Ikea's one 
2. Band-in-a-box - movie like high 5 and pocoyo has these instrument, andrea & ben loves it. Consist of Tambourine, cymbals, maracas, clacker, tone blocks and a triangle
3. Puzzle - cannot find in the website [many shapes to be inserted into 10 different pictures]

Quality wise - it's comparable to ELC. Will shop more the next time when Thinktoys / mothercare's having sale :)

Inside-Out Healing

Inside-Out Healing by Richard Moss - Transforming your life through the Power of Presence

Summary for my own use:
1. A big part of the challenge is that this particular aspect of healing is a journey you must take alone. It is in the nature of the abysmal feelings that the passage through them is always a solitary one. You are alone with these feelings in your hospital bed, or as you learn to live with a disability. You are alone with them during a divorce or in the dark hours of financial setbacks. They are yours in the solitary depths of grief. [pg.168]
 
2. Extreme pain can be so powerful that it wants to suck you in like a black hole, but if you do not amplify your suffering with stories-and instead let your whole being be a prayer for the lessening of suffering everywhere-your pain has become something more than just yourself. Life naturally brings us physical pain and sometimes extreme pain in the course of illness, injury or normal event such as giving birth. You can never know whether shifting your focus from your own suffering to the alleviation of suffering everywhere will open you to the grace of peace and increased well-being. But this is not about success or some victory for your ego; it is about how pain can teach you to become humble and generous. [pg. 177]

3. Surrender to change is always a leap of faith. For something new to enter your life, you have to let go of the past and join your immediate experience right now. The key is less in what you do than how connected you are in yourself as you do it. In life there is no predetermined path you should or have to walk; you lay down the path by how you take each step. This is one of life great truths. [pg.205]

Prior reading this book, pei already brief me on my self-defense mode. I'm very glad that I've picked up this book, it talks about self-defense behavior in detail and how human behaves - we human usually aren't aware of these, hence brings unhappiness. It talks about death, do not fear but prepare for your death. i.e how you want to die. It talks about expressing emotions thru writing poem, listening to your own voice, drawing etc. Three keys to higher Energy: 
a) Spontaneous creativity - acting in accordance with your natural feeling without premeditation. It is "letting go and letting flow" in anyway that is in harmony with your disposition and uses your natural talents
b) Unself-conscious and wholehearted participation - whatever you do, you do it without holding back' you are totally engaged, fully present, completely authentic. 
c) Grace - grace isn't something you do, but something that may unexpectedly join you and carry you beyond yourself once you make your own effort.

Andrea Home Practice

I have not written about our shichida home practice before! I didn't do much, that's why :p After 3 years with shichida, I must at least write something. I've bought alot of stuff from shichida, below are the latest material we are using. Others are just sitting in the cupboard for ben's use - like linking memory set 1, 2 & 3, Japanese CD songs.

I've written The IQ Genius 1 Block previously, this is the only material that i feel most satisfied with. Seeing the OUTPUT! haha .. Andrea completed this 2 weeks after I've written the IQ Genius 1 Block post.
The IQ Genius 1 Block
Completed!!
The IQ Genius 2. Not as challenging as IQ Genius 1

Super Challenging. Andrea have not like it yet
Maths is difficult, because I've not found the correct method to teach andrea. Shichida have been teaching the addition song since 1 year old. I've bought the addition CD from shichida, have been playing (not very consistent thou), but andrea still not picking up. Have been working hard to teach andrea using the basic as per shichida method, see some improvement but have somehow lazy again because andrea prefer her violin more now. I've this random dots card, Organize dots and Variety dots. Very handy to me. The blue paper is for me to see & the green rubber is for my thumb.
Assist me in Addition
Shichida homework.These are the few pages - usually no problem completing it. Only the maths parts have some problem. Will work on it. Addition are like multiplication - force it into the head. haha... it really takes time for little kids at age 4! I also unhappy to see her count with her fingers! That's too slow and so not shichida style!

Schubert Trout Piano Quintet

This is the 1st Concert that andrea have ever been. Dr. Ng is the Head of String of Bently Music now. We were very fortunate to be Dr. Ng's student because, MPO will not accept children below 8 years old into the concert hall. Throughout the 1 and half hours, andrea did not fuss, she did wiggle a little but she is very well behaved. I guess, she enjoy the concert very much too! 

My self, I love classical music and musical play, especially someone played infront of me. Looking at their full expression towards music, makes me relax and relieve my emotional blockage. I have full admiration with people who came this far and have so much achievement in their life, all the teachers in bently have been with the Philharmonic Orchestra. 

Jessica Lim - Violin
Andy Ng - Viola
Alison Lim - Cello
Mohd Azizi - Doublebass
Shuenda Wong - Piano

I do not have high expectation of andrea to be the next player in Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra. I want her to be able to express her emotions (+ve or -ve) thru music, to be a well balance person in order to achieve more in her life. 

Many studies says that, a person who knows music is more intelligent. Actually thru Richard Moss book, we can express our emotion thru music, singing (listening your own voice), drawing (it is common for children to draw as one of emotional expression method), etc. What they define as more intelligent to me is, thru emotional expression method it will bring peace within these people and hence more focus and successful in their life. This is my own expression.

Money Luck!

I was told that I have another 4.5% salary increment starting June, well not alot lah, but better than none right :) Money grows in april and now June another small growth, when it will grow until I'm a multi-millionaire? Things seems to be better now, not because luck changes, because I've changed alot internally. Hubby and I were counting our expenses, it's scary - I just hope money will continue to grow and exceed our expenses by 100%. Will it realized? I'm sure it will, it depends on how much effort and awareness we have towards it. Opportunity drop from the sky, hence we need to be on the look out and work on it. May abundance be with everyone.

Child Discipline

I'm having menstrual now, hence get emo very easily. Today was having lunch with a colleague, she talked about her sister's son being rude & the other colleague have been telling me that her sis-in law daughter also irritates her alot. I don't know where the anger comes from, i just shut her off by saying, there are a few of my friends likes to complain about their own children, the true story is the parents taught them all the behavior that they didn't like without their own awareness. The kids did not learn it else where, it's the parents who overlook on their own behavior and attitude in bringing up their child.

I used to complain that ben makes me crazy by not eating properly - the true story is i had gone insane back then [not because of ben]. There's really no one to blame when your child gone off track, it's you who made them this way. I confess that I'm not a 100% good model for my kids but I will not let things gone too off track, as human I do have the laziness in me sometimes. I know I shall not get provoked by what have been shared with me, but because my hormone is imbalance now, I shall say what's on my mind. 

There are plenty of ways to teach your kids, there is no right or wrong. My method is not more superior than yours because every child needs different teaching method and discipline. There are also plenty of enrichment course outside, what I've chosen is not the most superior one in the market. There is really no need to compare and tell me how lucky my kids are. Please trust your own instinct, care enough for your kids - listen to them, you will find the most suitable school/classes/whatever for their needs.

Wisdom is available to everyone, but it cannot be listened to until you stop polluting yourself with stories that cloud your ability to dive deep within yourself - Richard Moss

Cupcakes for the School

Andrea's Birthday is just next week! I've not started planning!!! Not that I'm going to throw a party for her, but simple things like cake - I've not thought about it .... So many things happening in June! Today i pick andrea up from school, I told myself that I need a parking space (I know that place is always full and the cars always park at the road side!!) when I arrived at the shop. I drove very slowly when on that street to the shop, very LUCKY that 1 car just drove out from one of the parking - I was SooOOooo excited because it's just 2 shops away from the cupcake shop! 

Andrea and I quickly jump down from the car, buy parking ticket and headed to Wondermilk. I was busy flipping thru the catalog and suggest andrea to pick the cheapest cupcake available, BUT she insisted on the expensive ones. Anyway, we have settled with the cheapest (RM50) and most expensive (RM70) per box. Total RM120 for 72 mini cupcakes. Both is andrea's choice, I hope she remembers what she has chosen. When I was making payment, one of the staff is kind enough to offer andrea a free mini cupcake - she is very happy and kept telling me the cupcake is really nice! I hope she will enjoy her cupcake on her birthday at school. Last year we bought a big cake, however I think kids love cupcakes more! and less messy :)

Waiting for teacher Yan's reply on the total number of student they have. Need to prepare gift for the 4 year old.

SV - 12Jun11

Almost 8 months of learning violin, I would say andrea truly enjoys it. She can now play 4 pieces of suzuki and only left 10 pieces of encore book (dr.ng said we will be finishing encore book by end of june!). How fast is that? 8 full months we finish one of the violin beginner book! 

Today they did the solo performance. Encore new songs. Some games. -end- Now the class left only andrea and victor. I guess others cannot cope with the fast pace because the parents did not spend enough time with the kids. We may need to change from group to private class now (not enough student). I do not know If andrea will still enjoy as much in private class in July. Will see how it goes. Now they are practicing 2 songs for Children show case at Bently on 31st July.

Suzuki Violin just like Shichida method. The parents have to be involved, if not the kids progression will be VERY slow. Sometimes I have the energy to practice with andrea, sometimes I would just want to be lazy. I could really see the effort I've put in, the results is amazing and of course very proud of myself. Playing the Suzuki pieces is not easy - First piece consist of twinkle 5 variation, it took us months (3 months i think) to master all 5 variation to complete the 1st suzuki piece. The following songs were beautiful, andrea sang it 1st then play on the violin, it took us about 1 week to memorize and play the song. However, more practice is needed to get perfect pitch. Andrea is very patient in adjusting her fingers to get the perfect tone. This week I will kick my lazy bum, because i did not teach andrea any new suzuki piece last week! 

Last week, we did the theory part. Taught andrea how to write Treble and Bass clefs. I don't know if it's too tough for her, I'm having a hard time. Secondly, andrea is able to recite the 8 notes - ABCDEFGA (CDEFGABC for piano). I'm not sure which is "Do' for violin, Dr. Ng said it depends on the song. Well ... I've adopt A as "Do" for Andrea because Suzuki songs always start with A string. Andrea's turning 4 next Tuesday! I'm very proud of myself :)

What is Spiritual Path

Clearing up my desktop and saw this little note on my notepad: -

  1. The spiritual path is really not about trying to get anyplace. It is just reawakening to who you are. Another way to think of it is that we are not leaving on a journey but returning to where we started.
  2. The second step along the way is the practice of being your self in daily life
  3. The spiritual path is like a person who came to him asking his help in finding a necklace she lost forty years before, he asked:"what's that you are wearing around your neck?" the women suddenly realized that she had been wearing the necklace all along. Well, that is how the spiritual path is. we don't have to find GOD; we already are God and have been all the time

I'm excluded

I was VERY upset yesterday when my functional told me that I'm excluded for the proactive review in china. It's not because I missed the chance to go china for free but it's because everyone in GMU goes there and I'm being left behind because i was the most experienced one and they think i do not need to have this experience. He told me they have travel restriction and so on, well whatever. I was upset yesterday over sametime, this morning he sent me an email attached the ibm.com global BC email to say trying to push the travel for me, I have tears in my eyes again, i told myself I will be sad only for one time (which was yesterday), however I have tears in my eyes again this morning.

I'm practicing to live at the presence moment, I'm now reading "Inside-out Healing" by Richard Moss. I understand that the ego wants to make us feel special, being left behind is not special at all, hence I will either feel angry (trying to gain my special attention back) or feel upset (because i don't have control over having my special attention back). Being able to live at the present moment is ideal, hence understanding why we are feeling how we are feeling, helps to accelerate the healing process inside ourselves. If you can't, look around you - observe how other people is moving, curtain moving, birds flying, car moving etc They are all at present moment - no one is attacking you, don't let your thoughts attack you. Concentrate on your goals and dream, don't let trivial stuff happening in your life ruin your future. I can do it, so can you :)

Instruction Tone

I've noticed andrea for a while now, when she talks to the maid, she will have unfriendly and dictation tone. Yesterday she ask the maid to get her water, the maid get her warm water and she said why gave her warm water, she wants it cold. Andrea will scold the maid when the maid give her things that's not what she wants. I couldn't take it any longer, I told andrea you cannot talk like that to the maid, it's so rude, tell me who acts like that. I know the answer will me "mummy", however i wait for her to tell me. She smiles at me and point at my nose "YOU!". hahaha... OK, I then told her that - I know I've been rude last time but that is not the way we should talk to other people, I say sorry to you, can you forgive me? She said yes. Then I told her to apologize to the maid and she did. 

All these happen because the maid need more time to adjust and I expect instant pickup from her. Even until today she still do little things wrong or I feel she did not use her common sense. For whatever reason, I've stop picking on her for 2 months now. I'm so surprised for the 1st 4 months, andrea has pickup all my bad attitude towards the maid and she is now acting it out. I regret, I hope andrea will talk nicely to the maid from now on, I have full awareness when talking to the maid now. I still pray that I can have a good maid that will do everything to my expectation. This one is still lacking passion in her work as a housemaid.

School Holiday Getaway

It’s school holiday again! Since andrea kept telling me her friend norelle went strawberry picking, I've decided to bring her to cameron to pick her own strawberry too. As we are a big fan of YTL resort, I’ve decided to book Cameron Highland Resort – hoping to have excellent service and also excellent food. We book the trip on Monday and traveling on Thursday, everything went smoothly



We arrived at Cameron Highland Resort at 4.30pm. Requested for room upgrade but was being turn down, was upset because I have a feeling that Austin doesn’t want to give it us. He told me the suits are full. During our Dinner, next day breakfast and lunch – I don’t think it has more than 10 rooms occupied (looking at the crowd at the restaurant), whereas the resort has 54 rooms in total. The car park is empty too. Anyway, I do not have affinity with this resort because beside the excellent food, I do not have other good memories with it. I always have to call 2 times to get my tooth brush, comb, baby cot and cleaning of the room. I will not visit to this Resort again.



First day – check in – feed the fishes – dinner – sleep. Second day – Breakfast – EQ Strawberry farm – other flower & strawberry farm – lunch – shower – nap in the room – tea time – feed the fishes – children’s play room – dinner – sleep. Third day – Breakfast – EQ Strawberry farm – check out – children’s play room – lunch – back to KL



Overall it’s a good trip. Andrea loves to pick strawberry. Ben loves to EAT strawberry. I love the resort minus service from the restaurant and front desk. Weekends were crazily packed, it’s not worth the traveling time.

Cameron Highland Resort

It’s our first time here at YTL Cameron Highland Resort. We would expect excellent service and food because we were very happy with YTL PLR, which we have been there 3 times! Having the beach for 3 times, we have now considered hills and mountain for the 1st time.  The traffic was very smooth on Thursday, despite the winding road, we arrived at CHR without much trouble. Oh, we nearly missed the Resort because the sign were too small. It’s really beautiful, the Resort facing a golf course and our balcony is overlooking the golf course too :)



CHR served excellent food, I’m very happy to see my kids eat on their own without me reminding them to chew and swallow. We took the 3D2N package with all meals inclusive, hence it’s a really good bargain. The resort is very well maintained and clean. The room is spacious, but the toilet a little small, however I like the towel basket in the bathroom for my kids to stand while washing their hands. We love the weather too, It’s like going back to the UK. I miss those days in the UK!



The staff service was mediocre at CHR. I have to call 2 times to get my things, i.e comb & tooth brush, baby cot and room cleaning (they didn’t come until 3.30pm, I thought they don’t clean the room – front desk said their cleaning time is from 11am-5pm). I really hate messy room :( Here are some pictures at the Resort.
