Super Jinnie Power

I think I have some kind of super power in my mind. This happens at work very often that, when I thought of certain clients who hasn't call up lately, the next thing is the phone rings and they are the people we were thinking or talking about. How weird is that? Similarly, I was craving for my Kakak Tini's curry puff on the lazy Saturday for tea break; and I found out she actually made and brought it to my house when I went down to the kitchen to get some snacks. How cool is that! My super Jinnie brain!

What do we call this? The Law of Attraction? The secret of subconscious mind? Positive thinking? Whatever it is, how our mind thinks has certain effects on our life, be it in our relationship, career, personal development or whatsover. So, if you want something good in your life, better pray and think positively. The more negative you think, your subconscious mind will also play the negative pictures in your life. You can try it if you don't believe.

What is my mind thinking now? I'm sitting down, chilling and thinking about my life in the near future. I'm getting married on Monday, with my high school sweetheart on the day we started 10 years ago. I'm thinking what had I achieved in 2009 and what do I want in 2010. I'm thinking, and thinking hard.

My super power Jinnie brain will bring me to where I wanna be.....

Terry Fox Run

A week after Mizuno Run, I was back to running again. This time is a charity run- Terry Fox Run held in Lake Garden, KL. Somehow I'm addicted to running nowadays, maybe the more I run, the more I can train myself, physically and mentally. Anyhow, since Terry Fox is a charity event, I have to admit that I didn't put in much effort like what I did for Mizuno and Adidas. Think I'm just take it as another Sunday walk with a bunch of people, meanwhile enjoying free Milo and yummy muffin.

Like I said, it's a charity event, no medal, no certificate, no freebies, no goodies bag. But came home with Terry Fox mini t-shirt.

Mizuno Wave Run

I wasn't a sporty person at all in the past 26 years in my life. Only until lately, I started to become active, walk and jog and run. My first marathon run was the 11km Adidas run held few months ago, and today 11km Mizuno run in UPM was the second one.

First time in my life, I completed the race within the qualifying time and came home with a medal. Mizuno Wave medal, which Jinnie completed the run in less than 1 hour 30 minute.

Mini Honeymoon

Some said I'm not motivated at work and some said I'm not motivated in preparing my "big day". Maybe I'm just laid back. Whatever it is, I'm definitely very motivated in holiday planning. I think I need a break or holiday again. Mind you, I just had a break few months back and now I need one. Or, maybe I should say, Minnie and myself deserved a honeymoon!

So, the part time holiday planner start doing her research. From planning the destination and budgeting, hotels and activities etc. We finally decided that we need a chilling place. For so many years, we always planned trips in overseas and some short day trips during our stay in Melbourne, we realized we actually didn't travel together locally, as in in Malaysia. So, we make it a point that we must have a "cuti-cuti Malaysia"; that will be the trip one week after our R.O.M, coincides with the long weekend.

This is considered as a mini Honeymoon; the greedy couple still looking for a longer holiday and planning for a bigger honeymoon overseas sometime next year. If time and financially allow us to do that.

Anyway, our mini honeymoon destination- Penang Island. Definitely will enjoy the sunshine and beach as well as yummy yummy local food.

Penang, here comes Jinnie and Minnie!!!

Where is my futures?

Caught up with 2 different friends this afternoon which I haven't seen them for 10 years. One is a high school junior where she also spent a few years in Melbourne. Though living in the same place around the same timeframe, we actually didn't meet up with each other in Melbourne. She is a writer for the magazine "Personal Money", one year younger than me, but she is very mature and well planned for her own future.

The other guy is 6 years older than me, and we share the same birthday, a very good husband who works hard for the family. When I say work hard, I really mean it. Not only financially, but he works very hard cleaning up the house and cook for the family! That's the typical Taurean guy!!! Well, I think it's opposite with the Taurean girls, nowadays Taurean ladies look for a good house-husband!!! Part time house-husband, full time an ambitious businessman. He shared his life experiences with me and gave me a very good advice on how should I handle and manage my future(s).

We had a very good chat the entire afternoon, about what had we done in the past 10 years, what we are doing currently and how we see our life in the future. I must be living in my own Lala Land, everyone is well planning for the future and I wonder what am I doing here. I have a serious thought again about my life. I need a wake up call or a pail of cold icy water splash on me, I need a good GPS to show me the path I'll be heading, I don't want to live life miserably again. I've just walked out from a quarter-life crisis and I don't want to enter an early midlife crisis path. Here I'm, thinking hard about my futures again and again...

R.O.M

Minnie and my R.O.M is going to be held in one month time. Yes, the 16th of Nov 2009. On that day, it'll marked 10 years since the day we started as a couple. 10 years, it's a very long journey.

Everyone been asking how was the preparation. To me, nothing much need to be prepared, I thought, at the beginning. I just invited some close friends and my family members and his families to be the witness, that's it. As the day draws closer, I became a bit nervous, and wonder what have I done or not done.

So, I finally sit down and wrote down every single things I thought of. I just want a cozy R.O.M surrounded by friends and family, nothing too complicated. This is what I finally came out:

1. Guest checklist
2. Schedule of the day- R.O.M, followed by photo shooting and luncheon with friends; dinner between Minnie and my family
3. Dress of the day
4. Make up and hairdo
5. Flowers and ring
6. Photographer of the day

Have I miss out anything? Feel free to comment if you think I've left out anything.....

New member

Life is back to normal after all the happy celebrations. Five wedding dinners last month, my parents' birthday party and finally the farewell of my sister, close cousins and friends from overseas. I finally have some personal time to sit down, to think for myself and reevaluate my own life. Time flies, it's the fourth quarter of the year and I wonder how much have I achieve this year? Anyway, will think about it later.

I'm glad that my brother finally settle down and found his life partner. Someone who doesn't mind his big loud snorring. Welcome my sister in law, a very down to earth Taurean.
