Life is changing...

It's time to stay strong and learn to be independent, Rachel.

Rachel: No worries at all...I am tough~!!!

Dear Randy,
Wishing you all the best in your new job and life in Des Moines.
Take care.

Miss you........

Friends' Gathering
Thank you for being there for me always, my dear friends.

My girl friend's birthday dinner at South Street Seaport, New York.
Although food was not really special, we had a good time chatting while enjoying the astounding night view from the South Street Seaport.
-(Owen, Randy, Wesley, PARIS, and Rachel)-

Friend visiting - Oh...it has be a while never catch up with my friend from Boston, ever since we graduated in December last year. It was great to meet her again in the big apple city. We went for ShangHai cuisine this time because we were bored of Korean, Japanese and Chinese food eventually. We decided to go for ShangHai Cafe, which is located at Mott Street (between Canal and Hester Streets). I am going to miss their "Lei Sa Tang Yuan"...that's just so tasty! Not to forget another two more mouth-watering dishes - they are "Xiao Long Bao" and fried korean rice cake. Those are the "must try" items on the menu, if you have a chance to visit this restaurant.

New Dessert Spot - From Rice to Riches
They are selling more than 20 types of rice pudding + many choices of toppings for you to add onto your rice pudding too! Hmm...is that possible to try all of them? It is definitely possible to do so, but how long will it take?
Will see...The journey began with HAZELNUT CHOCOLATE BEAR HUG, ALMOND SHMALMOND, SEX DRUGS AND ROCKY ROAD, THE CORNER OF COOKIES AND CREAM, DON' CAPPUCCINO AND TAKE ME TO TIRAMISU...What's next?

Times Square, NYC

Yes, it is times square again. It will be always, never fail (whenever we have new friends visiting NYC). We were "counting down" for Malaysia Independence Day too!! Kaka...look for the clue in the photo =p

M&M Store, times square, NYC
Say Hi to Big M&M Buddies!!
I love the candies here better than the stores out there. I feel the "freshness" of the M&M.
This is another must-go attraction at times square.
This place is not exclusively for kids, you will like it too!

Parties and Karaoke sessions!!

~ At the Monster Karaoke, Flushing, NY ~

A piece of luck!

回头想想自已经来了美国近 5 年，好长的一段时间。
不曾想过自己竟然会在外头流浪这么多年。 真的曾未有过这念头。
或许我从小到大都习惯了依赖在父母身边， 胆子确实是小了点，所以我并不会像其他小孩梦想出国念书。

直到了COLLEGE 时期，报了个 ＡＭＥＲＩＣＡ　ＤＥＧＲＥＥ　ＰＲＯＧＲＡＭ　－我的人生就因此而转变了。在这ＰＲＯＧＲＡＭ里，让我认识了许多怀着到国外深造念头的朋友 （他们全是有梦想，有干劲的年轻人）。　因该是受到他们的影响而因此改变了我到国外念书的想法。　我从小就在父母身边，寸步不离的。　我想这正是个好机会让我学习独立的时候了。

就这样，我就很幸运的来到美国深造了。当然不少得谢谢父母，我的家人，朋友的支持和鼓励。　真的很感谢他们一直以来对我的信赖和关怀。我真幸福哦！！！

幸运的事不仅于此。。。

经过了所有的考验，完成了大学深造，还得经过重重的难关。。。
找个好老板，好公司，　好同事，　最总要的还是那ＩＮＴＥＲＮＡＴＩＯＮＡＬ　工作准证　－　Ｈ－１Ｂ。
没有了那Ｈ－１Ｂ，就不能再逗留在美国了。　还好我公司愿意为我申请那Ｈ－１Ｂ，　为我制造了逗留在美的机会。

５／２２－好消息的到临
刚刚结束了我的漫长假期，　回到了自己的　ＡＰＡＲＴＭＥＮＴ。
回到家里的感觉真好。。。躺在舒服的床上，　开启我的手提电脑。。。
更让人振奋的是　－　我尽然幸运地被抽中　－　Ｈ－１Ｂ！！！
高兴地跳了起来。　谢谢！

希望幸运的事会传播到每一个关心我的人身上！　

Wow...It has been awhile not being able to update my personal blog...
There were tons of reasons to explain why it is not updated...
either lazy or too busy - surprisingly both are applicable to me!

Let's start with the July 4th Weekend ~
Woohoo...a long weekend - such a good news for everyone!
My boyfriend, uncle and his family, my colleagues, and friends went to Foxwood Family Camp Site for a 3days 3nights camping - friends gathering.


It was my first experience for not sleeping on my own bed but at the camp site/wood/forest, never ever for the last 21 years (hotel room is an exception). To be honest, it was hard to adapt to the environment at the camp site, especially the public bath house/rest room. It looks worn-out and DIRTY!! OMG...can you believe I actually bathed in the "special" bath house?

LEt's forget about it and move on to talk about my first water rafting experience...

Pocono Whitewater Rafting, PA - 45mins away from our camp site.


The experience is precious! Although it wasn't as challenging as the higher level rafting, it is a good way to train everyone's team work spirit! Rafting not only counts on individual physical fitness, but team work spirit as well. The whole team will never reach the destination if they are not working as a team.

My cousin and I were arguing with each other for the first part of the rafting session. We were disagreed with each other in the rafting way and we just can't move forward as fast as we supposed to. It made the rafting session harder than it should be.

Finally we came to an agreement and it worked out well!! We turned out to be one of the first 3 rafts to reach the destination, because of the true team spirit...

Good job and it was a fun weekend!

转眼间三年过去了。。。
我们也成长了许多，经历了好多的事。谢谢您一直以来对我的体谅与陪伴。

当然爱情并不是每天都甜甜蜜蜜的 （或许它会发生在童话故事里，但就肯定不是在现实世界里）； 偶尔还是会有吵架或达不到共同意见的时候。 长久 或 短暂 的爱情： 选择权利在于那一对情侣。谈谈长久爱情使吧。

长久爱情使者总是明白这世界上形形色色不同个性的道理。他们明白不同个性有着不同的观念，意见不和是无可避免的。 维有花点时间去了解对方， 从另一个角度去了解整件事情的经过。问题很轻易就能解决了； 将所有的不同点转为相同的出发点。欢喜大团圆。
“Like putting yourself in another person's shoes and think from their point of view. You will realize how much difference it could be. You will be surprise with the result too.”

有时真的觉得自己很幸运在三年前的今天成为您的伴侣。因您的出现带给我许许多多珍贵的回忆。 您懂得如何去体谅您的伴侣， 慢慢花心思的去了解对方找出那共同点。

Love you forever and Happy 3rd Anniversary, My dear Randy!
