it takes two

ohne Bilder...

i haven't blogged for a while now! Weather has been amazingly beautiful with the longest lasting blue-est sky i have enjoyed in europe in as many as almost 6 years now... (aging -___-) The pleasantly warm weather, outdoor basketball and new found passion in both badminton and volleyball have kept me busy, healthy and tired for most of the evenings... but in a good way! =) I have also managed to watch some great movies and, and... great movies are never too much to share with right? even in a blog which is supposedly meant for pictures only... Well, here they are, watch them if you haven't and let me know if you like them as much as i do.


1 - Everybody's Fine 


2 - The Young Victoria

a music-filled sunday afternoon

was told that a friend will be back over the weekend, and not only that, she will also be performing in one of the local cafe, coffee fellow =) of course, a lot of us went and had a small gathering. I can still remember when I first knew about her singing talent, was jaw-dropped and mesmerized when I went to her very first performance during one of the annual event held in Mannheim. Another friend even got more excited than me, ordered a lot of alcohol and started dancing away! lol for those who is reading this, I hope i can get a link and share her talent with you lot! Until then, here's Eka, the one in the darker outfit.

p/s - I should mention that the other girl is actually very very good too, participated in the german version of american idol - Deutschland sucht den Superstar, and she was in the top 15!!! She has an amazing smile, right?!?!?!?! *drool* haha 

spring is here!

for those who have been suffering from the bitter cold late autumn + winter + early spring, the warmer spring has finally arrived!!! 22°C , bright sunshine, t-shirt, shorts, slippers! ah! anyway, i got out of from sulking in the room and went to a near by playground where there are a few white cherry blossom trees! enjoy...

a new path...

an old shot which i loved, still love, and will love.  


this post is rather filled with mixed feelings. One of us has decided that he will be leaving Germany for good and start his next chapter back home with his family, ever-lasting gf and hopefully soon-to-be wife. I am glad for him in a way, no, actually i am happy for him as i feel that this is a very brave choice and a very wise one too. How can we ever weigh the comfort and happiness we receive from our beloved ones? never. 


i wish him all the best, he works harder than anyone of us and i am sure he will have a bright future! there goes my shopping partner, mahjong si-fu, chor-dee kaki, gap-lui-buddy and above all, a good friend of mine! nevertheless, we shall both reach for our dreams in different ways and meet up one day in the near future! =) Alles Gute dai lou...  

looking after

how true is it that our mom looks after us all (children) while we play around? and how true is it that while our dad keeps an eye on us, he is constantly taking care of his beloved wife? 

longeasterweekend

first outing after coming back from Malaysia! It's a longeasterweekend and the uni will be closed, hence, no WORK! and classes will not resume until after next week! *blessed* 

so... me and my friends who are constantly poor and thrifty (very poor) have decided to just spend the day at the nearby castle, Schloss Schwetzingen. The entrance to the huge but still bare garden was only 2,50€ for students! A good deal right? We had packed lunch thanks to Sean and Ngar Shien! (chopping board for the cucumber, beer as the thirst quencher, some delicious cheese, smoked ham, butter and wholemeal bread)

ok, photos below... Enjoy... 

thoughts, upcoming trip and one shot...

i havent taken photos for such a long time! i have nothing to post! this blog is dying once AGAIN! i miss all my kaki-langs back home... ANYONE kind enough to get me a ticket for a slightly longer weekend-getaway?


Anyway, a slightly cheerful piece of news - I might be off to italy only in July (not May), BUT with one of my 老死! it's still at the very beginning of the planning stage but I'm excited already!  


words aside, a random picture from the last weekend! Happy Easter everyone! =)
