How i boost my IQ level

My sister who lives overseas wanted to transfer some payment to a local travel agent last week. She couldn't understand our online banking system and called me to help. 

I had to log in my own account, video called her to guide her, step by step on how things work. After sometime, she finally made the transfer online *hooray* In her opinion, the online banking system here is too complicated.  She said one needs to have an IQ of 200 to understand and operate it. Hahaha... 

Although I have an IQ of 200 *ahem*,  I sometimes still struggle to work things out... 

You see, i received 4 tokens and am supposed to activate them. Unfortunately, after sometime, one of my tokens is locked and two of my user accounts are blocked. In order to unblock, i need to unlock first. The logic is simple but the journey isn't~ 

Last week, I went to the bank personally thinking that it would be faster to solve this mystery face to face with the bank personnel. Yes, it was fast because within one minute, the lady 'solved' her report by asking me to call the customer service... 

To date, i have called the customer service 4 times. Haha, i wonder if my number and name is already on the frequent call list :P

The first agent managed to teach me how to unblock but i still couldn't unlock. She asked me to follow the instructions on the booklet to unlock. If i am still locked, to call the customer service again. 

That sounds easy, however,  when i duly followed and received the passcode through the SMS and happily keyed in, again, i received the error message @.@

So i called the customer service again, explaining to this person what my problem was and what the previous customer service agent taught me and now am still stuck. She said to me, that i am supposed to key in the passcode on the token, not on the login screen in the PC. And she will reset again and reminded that to follow the steps correctly. OK, i wasn't told earlier :(

Anyway, after 4 calls and some jigsaw puzzle pieces put together by me, i managed to solve the problem. I think from now on, i could confidently say that my IQ is 400! haha

Although it's complicated, i should be happy to know that the online system is secure and that my money will be save and sound... 

I guess, there are more steps to follow in order to enjoy a peace of mind with a more secured system. Oh well, pros and cons....  that's the way life is.  

無常

很多大智者不斷提醒，生命無常，記得要好好珍惜家人好友，珍惜每個機會等等。我上了幾年的課，無常這個詞，我不陌生。

是呀，無常我知道，但卻常忘了放在心上，用在生活上。直到突然有事發生，又再次喚起了人生無常這件事。哎，人啊，為何會这麼的得過且過呀？

今晚，我有點想念我童年的好朋友。她跟我和jane 同年同月同日出生。也是一對雙胞胎。我們不認識另一個雙胞胎，因為小時候，她們分別被兩個不同的家庭領養了。我們小時候最愛去她家。因為她有一個很大的娃娃房子，当然也很喜欢一起玩耍啦~ 

後來由于大家到不同的地方求學，我們因此失聯了。我們那個年代，沒有 facebook，instagram，手機，聊天軟體等，說失聯就真的失聯了。 2001 年中學好朋友結婚，不小心認識了她的另一個雙胞胎。聽她妹妹說，她結婚了，嫁到西馬去了。以為以後都見不到了，結果2014年去 handicraft market 探望朋友，竟然碰到了她！緣分這件事，真的很妙。我們趕緊拿了彼此的聯繫方式。只是後來因為大家很忙，我們沒機會聚聚。

沒想到，這成了一輩子的遺憾。因為她今天凌晨離世了。

她兩年前被診出得了乳癌。她常常會把病情po 在 facebook 上。有人熱情的給與鼓勵，而我選擇默默的為她祈願。得知她往生的消息時，我愣了一下。腦海裡浮現了很多小時候的回憶。

慧麗，你到天國了了要乖乖喔。我相信你在上帝的身邊一定會很快樂的。謝謝你給我一個美好的童年~ 榆和彬想你了~

May you rest in peace~ 

Pig Year !

it has been a while since i last updated my blog. Oh my~ what have i been doing?

I thought i would be able to have more time to update my blog after starting a new life but Noooo.. i am busier and hardly sit down. Many times, i have stories i wanted to tell in my brain but they somehow never get translated into words T__T Please, can someone please quickly, urgently develop an app that can read my mind and turn into words? 

CNY is almost over. It's the 11th day of the lunar new year today. How time flies! i love CNY because it's the season all long-lost relatives and friends meet up. It makes u wonder, why we don't do it more often? Why do we only gather once a year when tomorrow or next second, one of us could be gone.. ahahaha, i hear some of you saying, 'aiyo, why u so negative one?' :P  Life is fragile, when u reach my age, u will understand ^^ 

Another reason why i love about CNY is that, it's time to eat all i want without looking at calories (although it seems i never bother to look at calories *oops*), an excuse to buy new clothes although i never stop buying even after CNY. I even get worried when i have not bought any clothes for CNY! hahaha, it's crazy i tell u... but am loving all these excuses!

This year, we received auspicious words from the calligraphy master. it's now hung at our entrance. So everyone walking in and out will be blessed. 

Wishing u always safe wherever you go

You know what, if you do direct translation from Chinese to English of the above, it reads: Blessed Out In. Ahem, Where did you mind wonder off to....? :P

Happy Blessed 🐷 Year！

大🍊大利， 合家🍎安

貓言貓語

我家的貓，從幾天后才回家吃飯睡覺進階到失踪整整幾個星期都不回家。我媽說，他跟母貓同居去了。真是潑出去的水呀！人家養青蛙，至少偶爾會寄 postcard照片回家，我的這隻貓，舍都沒有。真是的~

2018年的最後一天，也不見他回家吃團圓飯。 2019年的第一天，也不見貓咪的踪影。倒是泰哥最乖，每天看見我們都搖著尾巴，乖乖在家看門。還是他最忠心！

Jane還說好久好久沒看到貓咪了。 1號晚上要送Jane去機場時，失踪的貓突然跑回家！原本應該生氣他的，但看到他可愛的模樣，唉，又心軟了。

要好好跟他學習這一點 哈哈

昨天開手機，竟然收到我貓給我的話。

我不知道他憑什麼給我勸告！哈哈哈哈

真相大白！

今早，陪媽媽吃早餐。

剛要外出時，媽媽突然發現他的花兒‘凸盧姑’（光頭）了。

問：唉呀! 是不是你把我的花棌了？
我：沒有呀 *冤枉*

雖然我到處棌花草，但也絕對用最溫和不傷害的方式進行呀。

四個小時後，我們找到真正的兇手！

就是他！

He did it!

看他吃的肥肥的呀！胃口好大！

13年 Goodbye

我以為我可以很瀟灑的轉身
還是忍不住紅了眼眶
畢竟這條路每天走
一走就走了13年

這條路有開心，有驚喜，有憤怒，有希望，有期待，有失望，有友情，有疲憊，有寬容，有壓力，有動力，有領悟....

不管如何它都曾经是我生命的一大部分。

今天告別13年的熟悉，心裡有點酸酸的

不捨的是這條路？

還是這家公司？

或是這崗位？

還是這13年來所建立的友情？

原來我在離別這條路還是不夠瀟灑

這條路、成了我的過去

這條路是我的故事

這條路成就了現在的我

我感恩在這條路上所遇到的每個人事物

我們再見～

#換個跑道#

Forgive and forget~

It's interesting how many things one can accumulate over the years.

This morning, i decided to do some spring cleaning on my laptop.

Everyday, i add in new things and none comes out because i think to myself, what if I need them one day? Of course most of the time, this day never comes. But i keep them anyway, just in case.  Oh well,  the files only take up virtual space, i thought I might as well leave them there, because re-building from scratch is a pain. Am I the only one feeling insecure? haha...

Today is a historical moment because it's time to delete.Yes, there comes a time when you are forced to do something and only then, u realise that, those things u think were important at that time, no longer seem important now.  

At a press of a 'delete' button, over 1,250 files in my dowloads folder, which i had accumulated for the past 5 years were gone in less than a minute. Looking at the speed, i suddenly thought, if we all could delete/ let go of our unhappy thoughts, memories and feelings at this speed, wouldn't we be happier? Wouldn't the world be more peaceful?   

Many times, we hold on to past events, be it happy or unhappy ones, be it hatred or love for many years. Good ones are like vitamins for our healthy, while the bad ones are slowly killing us but we refuse to admit them... We think, by doing so we are showing the other parties some 'colours' but in actual fact, we are punishing ourselves. 

Hmmmm... something to work on....

如果我们也能以这种速度忘了，原谅了，是否会过的更快乐？
