Selfish society

People are so selfish nowadays. Greedy and takes advantage at any opportunity.

Yesterday while loitering around the express counter in hypermarket while Jo was queuing up, a dude in front of her had a basket full of items. My mental calculation, there are more than 10 items in his basket.

Can't he read that 10 items and below sign above his head? The express counter is longer than other counters but each customer are allowed 10 items and below thus making the line supposedly faster.


Why are there people who chose to be ignorant and selfish to hog up the express counter lane? You are very much aware of how many items you have in your basket so go to the appropriate counter.

I admit, I'm a bit too goody goody sometimes. I push when the door says push and I cringed when someone pull instead. I'm a little crazy like that but seriously, this social behavior annoyed the crap out of me.

The other thing I realize was how no manners the people are in public transport. Empty seat are not meant for your bag, lady! I don't mind standing but there are other people who might need the seat and your backpack is not it.

Not to say society is doomed forever. I witnessed some kind soul who willingly give up their seats to old people. It puts a smile on my face.

Please people, just be considerate. Don't be selfish.

Legoland

I took a trip to Johor last weekend and I got the opportunity to go to Legoland. Here are some photos that I took. 





The view from the top of the rotating tower. 



This dinosaur spits out cooling mist. 









A water percussion band with music





The flying airplane ride where I was supposed to put away my phone





The ninja shadow show



The ninjas who are controlling the puppets











Driving around the lake





Hi there! 

The following are buildings made of lego. 













They are so awesome, the photos are nothing. 



Halloween around the corner.



That's a Lego scuba diver









The sleeping man - complete with snores







If you are a Lego fan or you have the opportunity, do go for a visit. The theme parks are designed to cater to the younger audiences so thrill seekers might find this boring. 

Run for Peace 2015

The bi-annual run is back! The first time I joined was two years ago. I don't like joining marathons but I'm running for the awareness of peace! Woke up at 4 am + and it's time to go. 

The whole family was ready to go. We arrived at the stadium at 5 am + and loitered around the area. 



The sun is not up yet. I really wish I was still in bed but I'm also glad to be here with my family. The sea of purple everywhere! 



This is my crew who ran separately after the first 500 metres. Once again, I walked with Eve and her boyfriend. I didn't realize my towel was too tight around my head and it cut my circulation which made me dizzy. FML.  



It took me about 2 hours to get to 8 km done. Burnt nearly 1 thousand calories but I'm proud of myself for not taking the short cut although I was tempted several times. I really don't like marathon or walking.  

So happy to be finally be back at the stadium and settled down with my ice cream. Milo line was way too long for me to queue so I skipped that. 

Run for Peace 2017, I'll be there!

Everything You Treasure

For a short period of time, the exhibition of Everything You Treasure - A World Free from Nuclear Weapon was held in KL. I had to get there to appreciate the effort that people had put to make this happened. 

"I am convinced that human beings are best able to advance, not when driven by fear of catastrophe but when guided by the prospect of hope-filled objectives" 

Really awesome art work that is really simple but it speaks a lot in depth. I really like these types of art.

There was a little mini maze where you can choose your path. Which path would you choose? 

As a woman, this piece of information hit quite close to heart. 

At first, I thought babies born like apple was funny but the reality is, that would be horrifying. Imagine the horror. Imagine your precious baby looking like an apple or octopus.  

A little set up of this threat looming above our head. There's two little soldiers in the midst of the people but with nuclear weapon, instead of just eliminating the two soldiers, innocent people will suffer as well.  

Birds of peace. 

One of my favorite quote about humanity. 

Colorful backdrop for the little ones but it was well received by everyone of all ages.

Closure of the mall

SStwo Mall is closing down for renovation and a revamp. It's no surprise but when I found out, I was a little sad. The mall had some nice memories for me throughout it's existence. 

Here are my memories :-

• This was where I got Hazie, my little beloved past hamster. He was my first ever proper pet and I spent some time to pick him. 

• This was where I stood on stage for the first time as an emcee for the blood donation event last year. I have never been onstage with a mic before so this was a breakthrough for me. 

• This was where I met up with the Ai and Nick for multiple discussions about student division meetings. It's been a while since I saw Nick as well. 

• This was where I finally signed up for gym after wanting to do so after so long. It was also the same gym where I quit my gym membership after almost two years. 

• This was where I did minimal shopping when I needed. The place had Econsave, Mr DIY, FOS and Chatime.  

• This was where we had 2014 annual dinner at the restaurant upstairs. The lights went out at the beginning of our dinner.  

So long, mall. Thanks for the memories. Wonder how you'll turn out. 

Excuse me, you're in my space

The other day I was in the train standing in my corner with my back facing the wall and just minding my own business while heading to my destination. Suddenly my little personal space was invaded by this woman who decided to lean against me. The train is not packed, there's plenty of space around to stand and yet she chose to lean against my side. 

Part of me wondered if she was going to try some funny business because I thought this was common sense. I tried pushing my shoulder and bag towards her side to give her a hint to move away but she pushed back. Seriously wtf. 

Haven't you heard of personal space, lady? I am totally okay with this situation if the train was super packed but the train was empty. There's at least 4 places to stand but you chose to crowd my personal bubble. 

Sheesh.

Birthday feast

In the beginning, we were supposed to go for a karaoke session but at the last minute, our plan was changed to my birthday lunch at Sukiya. I have never tried Sukiya before so this a new experience for me. 

Look at our yin yang magic which later merged into one soup because it bubbled over. 

We spent some time eating and just chatting about random things. Coincidentally we met Jade and her boyfriend, then Charmaine stopped by for a while. 

I loved the ice cream as well. I could barely move after lunch but many thanks to the girls for their treat.  

The food feast continued at night when we ordered in some pizzas and cousin KX came over with his KFC treats. 

Aside from these YOLO meals, the best thing about my birthday was just spending time with the family - my cousins because they're just a bunch of crazy and lame people. 

Happy birthday to me :)
