Again, If you are willing to contribute your precious life to your employer, you are a perfect employee. You have to be damn agree with this statement.

{ my back and me }

I hurt my Lumbar spine area(lower back) — which have a great deal of motion and flexibility. I've got a patch of blue black and pain at one part that is abit "misplaced", compare to other verterbraes should be placed. I have knocked the outward vertebrae when I was rolling on floor with my back. It might be the force that wasn't well-balanced.

It was indeed getting painful when the muscle & the vein that run across the spine was being pressed. The anxiety that trembled me and I thought it could leave me to paralysed. I can't sit in front of the computer and click on the mouse and I can't even dance no more! I am not a professional dancer though, but I feel happy that at least I can still move myself around freely. I will lie on the bed all day long, I can't go travel and I am just 21! Mentioned was pictures that flashed through my mind, when I was doing the cool-down exercise during the end of practise and got hurt even more severely. I can't help my tears stop shedding, holding the disorder part and laying on the floor dreadfully for 3 minutes, so scared.

Checked out with this,
" Disorders are common ( *love this* ) in the lumbar spine and at the top of the sacral region, as this area supports most of the body’s weight which creates stress on the structures in this area. The combination of these two sections of the lower back is often referred to as the “lumbosacral region”.
People with back problems that get better within a few weeks usually have a strained muscle (a pulled muscle) -*may be huh?* or other soft tissue damage. However, many back problems that don’t get better within a few months are caused by some type of problem with a spinal disc or nerve. " Thanks to spine-health.com

I have put down big portion of the huge rock which has laid in my heart for few days.

{ lovely lazy morning }

this lifeLife is so beautiful when I am having my favorite chocolate bread, rainy weather outside, in the office though.

It is all fine, because I have iTunes, the best juke box to me, turning the equalizer setting to jazz mode with my beloved selection of sluggish smooth jazz (*must be harmonized with saxophone*) in the playlist.

I think I have all elements for world peace in this morning, and I feel the earth is spinning at my very own pace. If there is a cup of classic irish coffee will make perfect.

gooooooooooood morning :)

{ save the last cat }

WANTED! A very special street cat, has a tail like a broom.

Kind-hearted, polite and responsible than any other cats, named Bubble. He knows how bad you feel when you look into his eyes, and he will try his best to cheer you up. The last time I saw him was exactly 6 months ago. May 14. I will not forget the last moment that captured in my mind.

there is always hopeWhat I wanted was all good for him. I never thought of I would have lost him in my life. Not just mine, my family and my sister especially. Perhaps this is the best ending for our story, better than facing him to death or suffering experience, like how his sibling did to us. You know how painful it feels when your best friend, who is ever loyal to you, regardless your personal gain or status, had brought you unlimited happiness, then left you quietly without saying a single last word.

I always hope I could meet him back on streets where ever I go.
There is a possibility. I do hope, even imagined and dreamt of that.

miss him always

{ nothing ever bad }

70 years Pocket Penguin, MARIAN KEYES "Nothing bad ever happens in Tiffany's".
I bought it about 2 months ago. Obviously, you know why did I bought it, and it was under a quite bizzare situation, that is when I was hanging out and I suddenly felt "I must buy something today, a book!". Then, I got in Kinokuniya and pondered over which book is "crunchy" for me, like snacks, a little but taste the excitement shortly then end. When I was busy flipping through all the books on the Pocket Penguin rack, this book appeared right under my nose, and you know I am buying it.

For a moment, I thought it was teasing me. In the book, it describes how panic Tiffany can be, and she's just love chocolate. First story in the book, in short, she found that her passport has gone, 3 days before the flight to her christmas holidays, torn her room apart, attacked the entire flat. It was not found and like ants in the boiling water. see? It's me. Here comes the second story, she investigates jetlag cures from natural heal to chemical solutions, in the end, guess what? told to select an over-priced, super-sized M&M and eat to sleep. me again. you too?

shit happens sometimes, not all bad, you'll see

{ which one ? }

this one? that one.Is that a batik motif? The one at the bottom with tjanting (*works like a pen but uses hot wax instead of ink*) rolling on the floral border or the vector illustration above? This question annoyed me a bit, when the client claimed that the motif above is a batik motif, which I found that is actually a scroll ornament or alike victorian style swirls & curls.
western or eastern?

{ too much to write }

too many plates + bowlsMy life has been quite packed with all kinds of activities. From daily routine to adopting a new pet, from normal practise to edit songs for performance, a normal little ant in the group to be involved in the performance costume brainstorm... I have too many things to write about. I am planning to write backward of my life. The whole last week.

{ morning started with Moulin Rouge }

I've got a job brief with Moulin Rouge: A Splendid Book That Charts the Journey of Baz Luhrmann's Motion Picture , mainly a photography compilation of the movie making, as a reference for the up coming design. Third feature in "Red Curtain" style trilogy by Baz, after Strictly Ballroom and Romeo + Juliet.


One thing that is really confused me at the first sight on this book was the words on the back cover - "A Bohemian Storm is Brewing". Plus, "We share the naive Boho's belief in Truth, Freedom, Beauty and Love." It's Bohemian again.

" The term Bohemian, as it refers to lifestyle, seems to have begun in France with the term La Boheme. It started as a way of describing bands of carefree 'gypsys' that came from Romania; possibly originating in India. As they traveled through Bohemia (now the Czech Republic), the reigning royalty gave them letters of safe passage. These letters indicated that the Bohemian royalty condoned their practices and lifestyle, which afforded them a sense of prestige in western Europe at the time. " - NewBohemian.com

This movie seems truly attractive to me. From this book, I saw " Hollywood goes Bollywood ", Satine (Nicole Kidman) in the garden: A set which took 6 months to build, stood for only 3 days of filming and was demolished within 24 hours, necklace around Satine's neck which explodes into a trillion spots of lights, a contortionist played as a snake, 480 hours of dance rehearsals, over 750 crew, and a donkey!

I have not watch these movies yet, never too late, right?

{ a step away to the labour court }

In the begining of this dearly holidays, my case has come to a step away to the labour court. I think this is not the best idea. My dad has been too protective to me, I think I have disappoint him the most. That was my decision for my own. I know he could understand that, may be needed more time to. My dad has reached to the level that he has an extremely huge heart, which he hoped that I will be like him. I am so sorry to say, I really can't do it or I am way too young to let go everything in the world. EVERYTHING means nothing? Even though I understand that, this is something that was not belong to me when I came to this world. I just can't get over with my own will inside me. I am sorry. For this moment, I respect my dad the most. It has never been easy to be my dad for this 21 years, eternally grateful to have this "baba" - how I call my daddy.

Thank you mommy and Michael, who have supported me along the way and have waited out of the labour office room for the whole session. Good Luck to Pei Shan, who still need to carry on with another file.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Case has not close yet, but this could be a little mini ending of it. Will be continue with the finale soon.
