The Amazing Avatar

Please let me nominate this as the Movie of the Year.. (^_^)
One word for it ~ aMaZinG.

2 hours and 43 minutes.
Crossing the line between dreams and reality.
Would you turn ur back against ur own race and be..one of them?

The story just twist with wonder, passion, and how destructive human kind can be.
I'm not sure about the rest of the viewers.. but..
It..makes me want to crawl into one of the machine.. and be bonded with my own avatar (eseh)..and just live my life there in Pandora.
I guess the most distinguishing element about the movie is the creation of the Na'vi characters - which is very different from the normal alien structure thingy:green, one eye, small, with an antenna thingy?
Please nod if u agree.. :)

Should i say more..?
Haha..please don't miss this movie for anything.
The underlying moral lesson to us is all around.
And that love is beyond what meets the eye ~ it is what the heart sees.

I wish i could ride in one of those beautiful Ikran.

Mi Miaw - the Tragedy

We LOsT our precious miawwww..
in the kampung..
in the dark forever.

But, everybody refuse to believe that he is really gone.
. . . . .
Maybe this time, he's really abducted by the elves who found him to cute to be true..
(i'll share u the stories when im done with this feeling uhuhuhu)
Maybe..its the wild animals..
Maybe..he got bored of the Friskies we feed him everytime he's hungry.
Maybe..Lord loves him more.

nc says: we luv u.please come home..mi miaw

Once in a New Moon

"Edward: Bella..will u marry me"
I felt that it was just the beginning of the movie.

But Jacob Black. Why are u so gorgeous n so- everything? haha..( sabar..sabar.. peminat2 Jacob)
Luv his cool native-american looks.
Only Bella would not be choosing u over Edward ~ i guess.
But..the heart knows best.

"Bella: dont make me choose..it will always be him (Edward)"
uhuhu..kesian Jacob.

One question came into my mind when watching the movie.. and still is
~ how far would you go for your other half? your so - called beloved. ~


..clift diving just to see his apparition?
..fly the instant to where-is-that Vol..sumting2 to save ur kekasih?
..an offer to sacrifice oneself for the sake of ur beloved?

would you?

. . . . . .

The power of LoVe.


Watch the movie folks..and fall in love. hehe


Photobucket
Bella to Jacob: Ur beautiful,


Photobucket
A lesson learnt to all kekasih2 out there: Sumtimes.. when u think u are protecting ur love ones,, that is when u r NOT.

Photobucket
I guess everybody almost or DID fall in love with Jacob. but.. can u ever forgot the angelic love of Edward..


nc says: hmmm..bejiwang sekali sekala.. tak salah ba kn. We are made out of love.. ;)

Roses are Red.. (not purple)

Yep, i guess roses are meant to be RED. not purple.
The purple roses that i was promised as my wedding bouquet (from my bridal house) turned out to be a disappointment. Purple, it was not..but a very light colour of pink.
"Puple la tuh.." said the bridal house assistant.
"Pink ni.." i said.
" dia punya bunga pun ada yg buruk sda.." i said further while looking at the bouquet with a very3 sad face.
"o, kalau mau yg perfect punya susah la.." dia balas pula.

My heart was really heavy. It was for my wedding. I added up another amount of money because u promise me of the purple ones.. :(

The time was 11am. The wedding was the next day.
This is NC ~ where there is a will, there is always a way.

J was too tired to go for another round of rose-hunt.
I ended up with my sister and brother in law searching for a replacement bouquet.
Determined not to walk down the aisle with the purple-kunun punya roses.. (yg bikin saikit ati lagi, bidah ba cara tu roses kena buat, smua org cakap bida) i called people and went to a florist.
But it was 4pm by then.
They all said the same thing - "kalau awal sikit kau bagi tau..mgkin dapat."

I made the last call to my photographer and ask whether he could prepare me a bouquet of red roses for the wedding.
"Sure." dia bilang
"Sa kasi buat ko English style."
woooooo..berbunga2 trus hati sia.

and so..

Photobucket

red roses for nc.

Photobucket
the Reds on my right..the pink-purple on my left. maybe its my high Xpectations..but, everybody deserve the best. Where there is a will, there might be a way.

Photobucket
though no purple roses for the occasion..i found these lovely purple daisies for me self..hehe..

Up Do or Down Do

2 weeks and 5 more days.. and this is on my mind?
ya bah..adui.

Calling all brides..i wonder which of these hairstyle appeals most to u?
hmm..i thought i've made up my mind. but..isk2..ntah la ni..
(both pic are courtesy of ContemporaryBride.com)


the 'Up Do'

the 'Down Do'

..i thought i prefer to let it down..and be free. but something keeps on bugging me to 'upDo' it and be the traditional glowing bride. last2 kn..botak la sia ni. my fair is falling - a lot.



nc says: i've got a large forehead. smpai ada kawan ckp..mcm padang golf! cis cis cis..nasib kawan.. i hate fringe. so, i guess i'll keep my padang golf. (^_^)
Our pre wedding pictures..only this time, the ethnic version.
The bridal house actually asked whether we can wear our own kadazandusun costume for the photo shoot. They were very eager for us to put on a pair of traditional wear - making it part of the photo shoot, without any extra charges. hmm..maybe its a marketing strategy.

That was charming.

The not so-charming part was,, we didn't get the soft copies for most of the picture taken - including our kadazandusun wear. sob..sob..(mahal eh kena jual..besa lah, cara dorang cari $$).

so, here's sharing with you..the scanned ones. mmuahhhh!

Wedding FLower Flower

I wish.
(^_^)
I wish i could have all these orchids to surround our wedding day.
hehe..how i wish.

..unfortunately, these beautiful orchids were part of the Orhid Exhibition held in Star City Complex (sampai esok ja ni). I brought my students there to have a look and learn about these extraodinary flora. Have a look urself..
with my 2 mega pixel punya kuasa..hehe..


hen piao liang o..:) most of the visitors were chinese who seemed very3 interested in these plants.


O my goodness..purple and white orhids!! just right for our wedding occasion - kunun. hmm..


this type of orchid is given the name Hello Kitty. too cute to be true. :)


Okay. I will need lots and lots of this one. Deep purple orchids.
hehe..mana mau dpt free a..


This is the biggest orhids i've ever seen. look at the pure white colour. suci dan murni..


By the way, all the orhids are from Taiwan. BUT, according to a tour guide that one of my student bumped into during the exhibition, claimed that all these orhids can be found in Borneo. hehe..what say u? We do have more than a thousand species of wild orchids here in Sabah.


nc says: taiwan kah..sabah kah..kalu sa dpt ni smua free..waaaaaa so happy!!

Marriage Made In Heaven

They say marriage is made in heaven.
A lot of people say so. No?
. . . . .

I still cant brush off what i've heard a few weeks ago - at church.
"tiada perkahwinan di syurga," the priest said in a sermon.

:( there was a big full stop in my mind.

The whole sermon was something about how we would be in the NEXT life - IF we make it there.
I cant help but wonder - until now: if marriage is really made in heaven, and why we have the blessed sacrament of marriage...WHY?
complaining..? not really. just thinking.. .t h i n k i n g.
can you imagine..we don't recognize one another anymore.. :( IF WE MAKE IT THERE.
Maybe its my S H A L L O W thoughts.
Forgive me, o Lord.
but..i guess, it is true. the world is never our own. even our souls.
Should we make it there..Praise.
In the meantime, appreciate whatever we have here now.
