I haven’t given up yet. As you have known, we were not able to climb Mt. Kinabalu last February because of my passport problems. I had to make an emergency exit to the Philippines to renew my passport. I went to Kota Kinabalu but only the day after our scheduled climb.
I was a bit disappointed because I have done all the necessary preparations. I did some physical preparations one month before the climb. I even bought a new pair of shoes. It’s not one of those leather Naot shoes though… but at least I could have used it for the climb.
I don’t know when we can go and climb Mt Kinabalu yet but will definitely do it.

I’ve heard a lot of good reviews about this new Movie: Transformers: The Revenge of the Fallen. I haven’t seen it yet but hoping to watch it soon, when my hubby comes home from Phuket, Thailand.
For now, I can only watch the trailer:

Moving to a new is kinda fun. I know it can be stressful. But I am more excited than being stressed. My mom-in-law dropped by yesterday and she said it’s no joke to be moving so much. It’s a hard work and very stressful. But actually, with my personality that doesn’t like routine, I appreciate moving houses.
We moved a lot when I was younger because my dad was in the army. We usually followed him around. Hehehe.
Anyways, while I was on the lookout for house designs in the internet, I found a lot of info not only on house designs but on home gyms as well. That’s the good thing with finding things online. You will be led to a thousand other things when you search for certain things.

Do you like taking care of pets? I don’t. But my son, since he started going to his grandparents’ house, has been asking me to buy a pet dog for him. I remember my best friend Joseph used to have a mini zoo in his house. He used to take care all of them because he loved taking care of pets.
There are many things to consider before getting a pet. Financial aspect would be one of them. You need to know what is the best pet supplements (horse supplements if it’s a horse you’re taking care of), best food for them, best shelter, etc. That would make a very happy pet.
Anyways, I’m still discussing with hubby whether to get a pet for our kids or not.

I have blogged about this in my other blog… but I figured since I’d been talking so much about The Twilight Saga here, might as well post it here too. So here goes: Stephenei Meyer’s cars in the Twilight Saga.
Edward Cullen used a Silver Volvo S60R:
Edward’s other care which he used for special occasion: Aston Martin Vanquish:
Porsche 911 Turbo – the bribe that Edward Cullen gave to his sister Alice to “kidnap” Bella Swan.
Emmett Cullen’s Jeep Wrangler
Dr. Carlisle Cullen’s Mercedes S55 AMG
Rosalie Cullen’s BMW M3
Bella Swan’s 1953 Chevrolet
Bella’s “Before” car: Mercedes Guardian
Bella’s “after” car: Ferrari F430
I really do have an affinity for appreciating cars. Even cars in the books I was reading fascinated me. Looking up in the internet to see what car Stephenie was saying was the only time I could break away from the e-book. I hope you enjoyed the cars as much as I did.

He started when he was 2 and a half years old. He said he wanted to be a “doctor” when he grew up. So I asked him what the doctor did (just to be sure he knew what it was). He said “to check Mommy.” And so from then on, everytime he’s asked what he wanted to be when he grows up, he would say he wanted to be a doctor.
However, since the start of this year, he has changed. He no longer wanted to be a doctor. He wants to be a Police Officer! He said he wanted to shoot naughty people. LOL. And everytime he sees a motorbike, he would say “When I be a Police, you will buy me a motorbike, Momm?” So I’d say… when you become a Police, you buy yourself a motorbike because you will have salary/money by then.
But of course, the thought of him riding on a motorbike scares the heck out of me. What if… what if…
Anyways, I wonder though if we have that in Malaysia, but in other countries, they would have attorneys to defend the victims like that of San Jose motorcycle accident attorney. Nowadays, when people get motorcycle accident, they don’t know what to do. Sometimes, they are blamed because they’re on motorbikes. I really pity them.
I just hope that my son would change his mind and decide not to be a Police Officer.

I just have to blog this: Twilight Saga: New Moon’s cast sending a greeting to Italy. Love the fact that they are together again, doing the movie. Can’t wait to see the movie. But we have 8 more months to wait. It’s a long time to wait, don’t you think so? And yes, Dakota Fanning is acting Jane’s character in New Moon. I think she’s the best person to do it.

I read The Hobbit after watching The Lord of the Rings – Fellowship of the Rings last December 2001. I had my friend from the US send me the four books of J.R.R. Tolkien (The Lord of the Rings – trilogy and The Hobbit). The Hobbit basically is the introduction of the trilogy.
The story will get you through how Bilbo Baggins found the ring… or more like how Smeagol (who became Gollum), took the ring from his cousing, who found the ring at the riverbed… the one ring that would rule them all. I have written my reviews and reflections of The Lord of the Rings before. I just need to look where I posted it. Hehehe.
I have read that Peter Jackson, along with Del Toro, are going to make a movie out of The Hobbit. I wanted to know when they’re going to show it. Apparently, they haven’t started filming it yet. And from what I have gathered, they’re going to start filming the Hobbit- the movie in March 2010 only.
Well, this I’m sure, I will be definitely looking out for it.

I love to be organized. I may not be like that all the time but I always want to be organized. Everytime I do work, I organize it in such a way that it’s easy for me to do it. I end up finishing my work fast.
For example, when I fold the clothes. I separate the clothes by categorizing them i.e. who owns them, whether they need to be ironed or just folded. Those for ironing, I don’t need to fold because I know that after I iron them, I would fold or hang them.
When I cook, I make sure I prepare all of them before turning the fire on. I don’t want to be frying the garlic and cutting onions at the same time.
The only way you can’t see me being organized is when I eat. I would be eating all small portions of dishes at the same time. My hubby would eat them one at a time. He has to finish the meat first before eating the veggies. I would pop all of them into my mouth at the same time. That is why probably I need to pop in some diet pills because of the way I eat. Does that even make sense? LOL.
My point is… I love being organized but I am not most of the time.
