The New Year 2011

there goes another digit being added to the year,and to ours,for me,the chinese zodiac will make to two full cycles after my lunar birthdate...
I guess that makes for two wonderful cycles of my childhood. And though my grasp for the past years has been somewhat blurry,it doesn't deny the fact that it has been a long while since all of our friends had graduate from secondary and been moving on to our very own next phase of life.
It has been a journey for our approaching to adulthood,yes,though 21 was years gone,true adulthood cannot be obtains just by measurement of of life time,but by it's experiences.

Though the journey is ever so difficult and never lack of surprises, I know not another way that men had live their life through.

Wherever it may takes us, myself,family,friends...pray that it be yet the best the world has to offer to everyone that lives.

Words that one may just hang on to.

"Too much ink is drawn to describe and define love. Why describe it and define it? Take my hand and let's just take a ride through it. Love is... Love is... Let's just go for awhile; leaving ourselves for each other."
~Mike Smith

We blog, therefore we are...

take a look at the dashboard and realized...i had did 63 postings on blogger.com, but then, its not like they're all that much interesting.

i guess i didn't turn out to be the blogging type^_^


any ideas n suggestion on what should i put in here?

So it would seems

So it would seems that most of us are deciding that blogging is just a bit more than fussy, with all the social networks available, and daily status and thoughts updating through those network. Its understood that which is more convenient.

Still, it'd be nice to see what everyone has been doing with their lives.

I'll just try to come up with something and post them here every now and then.

A repetition of our Taekwondo Black Belt Exam.

preparing for further instruction.

it's a turning kick.

It had been awhile since I stopped my Taekwondo training around the year 2005.
About a year ago, a Taekwondo gym opened near where I lived and along with a friend, we joined the club.

It had been a year since then, and on the 5th September, we got to repeat our Black Belt exam as the previous one does not count as a valid certificate.

Ironically, we get to use our Black Belt while we take an exam to obtain a Black Belt.

The grading test begins at 1pm, but our grading session is the last, which is after all the junior belts had their exam.

Although some of our moves are nowhere near perfection, we managed to do what we can.

The test consist of some of the Poomse (pattern), basic kicking, footwork, combination kicking, target kicking, advance jump-kicking, self-defense moves, non-contact sparring, 4-direction breaking (planks), and lastly tile breaking.

Here's a video of tile breaking. 

If we succeed in the grading attempt, we get to apply for a Malaysia Certificate for the Black Belt, and after that a Kukkiwon (Korea) Certificate as well.

I love this hobby:D

Borneo Highland Trip-29 August 2010

by the lily pool

unsuccessful panorama shot, but basically its like this:D

A trip to Borneo Highland purported by Shindow,6 of us and lotsa familiar faces we met.

It was dark when we reached the top and Heavy rain followed after, temperature drops and it was really chilly.

We had a fun ride to the top, get to have 1st close contact with a horse for most of us, played Chinese chess at the tea house and had fermented-bold PuEr tea while waiting for the rain to stop...
Taken pictures with vivid-full bloomed flowers.
Gets Beat by unforgiving rain...
The "Sakura" tree was claimed to be blooming near the Kalimantan borders but we didn't managed to join the Highland Tour(RM20).

As the rain continues its sequel by the late afternoon, we spend another hours+ at the tea house again, this time they guys played some MahJong, sipped some light-fragrant Oolong tea, there's also a Chinese music instrument show all the while.
The stream heading downhill was very rapid after the rain and we can hear the rush of waters while there.

The downhill trip was around after 3pm, and it's probably by the coolest temperatures of the day.

Beaten by rain and frigid winds, lack of serious fun...but, I sure had as much fun as I can where and while I can.
Hope the rest thinks so too^_^

The year 2010.

Well, it has passed the 22nd of August, and 2010 has seen through more than 3 quarters of itself.
Its so fast.

A lot has happened:D

So how's everyone's resolution going along^^?
