Good Bye for Good

To say good bye is to let go,
To let go is to fear holding on;
To forget is to forgo the fear, and
To move on is to let the feelings fade away.

But no matter what I do,
Or how far I go,
You're the shadow that remains closely attached,
Appearing during the lonely nights of the cold winter.

Digging into my soul like spilt ink on the paper.

TITONI Sponsors Genting Event

Once again, Mr. Tham Onn Chuan, managing director of ATG Watch is up on stage presenting prizes for a Go Genting sponsored by Titoni.
It is no surprise that many of the guests that night conceive Titoni as a well-known and established Swiss watch-maker during the 80's. What's an eye-opener is Titoni's 'come-back' is making such a strong statement and impact, thanks to Tham's effort in re-branding Titoni.
The lucky winners of the night walked away with Titoni watches worth a total of RM 10,000. Truely a wonderful night to remember.

Peak District

Broken into a million pieces

The feeling is so strange it's almost sickening,
I don't know if it was love or hatred,
Passion or addiction,
Desire or deliberate self-harm,
All I know is that it is so unbearable I might just stop breathing if I don't stop thinking...

Maybe it's a revenge,
a punishment i deserve;
They say that if it is meant to be then it will be,
But life is inevitably full of uncertainty,
and what happened just made life ever more precarious and insecure for me...

Like a blind eagle or a deaf bat...

New Family Car for the Home-coming Princess!

Daddy bought a seven-seater to welcome baby girl's home-coming!!!!! So super ultimately SWEET!!! Love daddy!!! Hug hug hugzzzzzz!!!~~~Baby Girl is coming home to the new family car!!! HAPPY!~ Thanks daddy, xXXxXxXXxx!!! Baby feeling sayang-ed!

GRAB! Manchester...

I cant believe everything is coming to an end so soon!

Life is like a journey... Every now and then we cross paths...
People walk into and out of our lives everyday...
But friends are people who leave footprints...
As memories in the heart... Forever...

Once a GRABber always a GRABber!

G ood team is one with you and me
R eally happy to have this opportunity
A chance of a lifetime
B eing with fun and lovely people

M aking this venture experience
A truly meaningful one
N o matter how much hard work
C os’ what matters most is that
H ere we are as a family
E ver so loving
S uperb and amazing
T ogether we make things happen
E ven when we face sh*t
R emember, we make the impossible possible

That special someone....

For my Bestie, my Inspiration, my SUI PO!

If it is real, you'll never have to grasp too hard to keep it,
If it's vague like thin air, it will still fade off no matter how hard you try to get hold;
If it's just an illusion that blinds, someday you will see truth,
And when the haze is gone, what remains will always remain.

- Yee Voon Tham, 8 May 2009 -

Love loads: Ah Yi!

Having someone who truly loves you is the greatest blessing one can ever have. I always think that I am blessed with more than I deserve. I have 3 wonderful people who loves me like a daughter - mummy, daddy and Ah Yi.

I don't know if it was me or is it really happening, every time I see mummy I think there is a little more wrinkle than I can remember, and daddy with more grey hair... This time I met Ah Yi and gosh ah yi is so small! I think she lost weight! I hate to see all these, I hate seeing my family grow old, I hate changes, I hate grey hair! It just makes me feel really bad to be away from home... The last thing I want to do is go home one day and find my family looking all different! I don't know if anyone can understand this feeling of fear, it's just terrible!

Ah Yi, must take good care of yourself! Get some rest when you are tired... Very chan already after this trip! Hugz and kisses xoxo

And thank you Melinda, Tim, Lilian, Jason, Siew Ping, Big Aunty, Small Aunty... Was a lovely trip! Hugs...

Easter Trip with Mummy Daddy!

Probably the happiest time of my entire life! I am so blessed because my parents will always love me more than I do, no matter how much I love them in return. Mummy is the cutest, bubbliest, loveliest person on earth! Sometimes I think to myself and regret the times when I was disrespectful or rude, and I begin to wonder how on earth could I have ever done such bad things staring at the face of an angel? My heart must have been blind! And my daddy is the funniest! Even the way he frowns in every photo is funny! All the jokes that we share... Most often people feel home sick because they are not used to living in a new environment but for my case it's not. I don't even think I am homesick in anyway, I just want to spend every hour and every minute of everyday with my family so badly because I am so loved...

Home..........

"Another summer day,
Has come and gone away,
Maybe surrounded by a million people,
But I still feel alone,
I wanna go home.

I feel like I am living someone else's life,
Like I just stepped outside,
When everything was going right,
I got to go home,
Let me go home,
I'm just too far from where you are,
I wanna come home..."

The REAL Yorkshire Pudding!

This time around it's much nicer than the previous one.. and actually more like the real Yorkshire pudding! Yumm...

In the cooking mood...

Introducing... Yorkshire Beef Pudding - Improvised Version!
The first pie or pudding that you see is what I had in Leeds, called the Yorkshire Beef Pudding. It tastes sooooo good! Thick sauce with juicy beef slices and crunchy crusts... Yum yum!
Today I intended to make a cake but I dont have the measurements to make a proper one so I've decided to do it simply... by instinct! So I added flour, butter and egg. I forgot sugar! haha... Sounds impossible I know, but that happens... So it came out a little too crunchy and crispy for a cake, and obviously, unsweetened... When I tried to take the cake out of the tray, the bottom fell off because it got stuck onto the tray - I forgot to grease the pan! Ooops... So I started eating the "cake" from the bottom... It tastes quite good actually... Like some kind of pie... And so it reminded me of this beef pudding that I had before! I turned the cake or pie or whatever unknown food object it was around, I start eating from the inside, eventually what's left is exactly like the crust of the pudding! Instinct told me "Oooh I can make beef pudding!" and the rest is history~! The second pie that you see is what I made today! I didnt have beef slices so it was minced beef instead... and neither did I have beef stock to make the sauce so it was substituted by curry... And I had some brocolli left so... Oh well, it wouldn't be "Yee Voon's secret pudding" if I hadn't modify it a little creatively! Boun apetite~!

Yorkshire Beef Pudding - from Leeds market

Yee Voon's Secret Pudding!

Ingredients:

Flour, water, egg, butter, beef, brocolli, curry,

Some imagination, creativity and a pinch of instinct.

Who said I can't cook?!

Today I'm in quite a good mood so I made myself a lovelly little salmon steak! Just two slices of fresh salmon, some brocolli, an egg and mushrooms with a pinch of salt and pepper... and waaalaaah~! Yummie yummie!!! But what I enjoyed most wasn't the salmon though, was the mushroom!!!

Salmon Steak

The rest are what I've been eating lately... I got this 15 eggs for 1 pound from Tesco which is really cheap, so tomato egg sounds like just the right meal... Quite appetizing too... made me eat more after... haha...

Tomato fried egg

Nothing too great about this lasagna really... but the filling tastes awesome! Well I AM a pro in making pasta so its basically the same thing. This is much juicier compared to my failure experiment last december, but the drawback is having no cheese (I'm on a diet! or at least trying to be...)

Beef Lasagna

I got this lovely bread from York which is really really good! Super high protein flour I'm sure! With some herbs and bacon and olives in there, heavenly! I heard German breads are really good, havent got the chance to try it so far, but I wonder if anything can be better than this one... Simply wonderful! Hopefully I'll get to try German bread sometime this year... Hopefully!~

Bread with bacon and olives (I didn't make this one!)

You cannot imagine how badly I'm craving for Malaysian food! And my mom's cooking essspecially!!! This, baby, is by far the best fried rice I've ever cooked! Cause I added "Adabi belacan untuk nasi goreng" into it, simply uh-ummm!! I miss mummy's "ham yu fa lam bou", "zhu geok chou", "den gai tong", "si ham paku choi", yellow wine chicken, "pak kut teh", "ham dan jing ju yuk", "ching jing sek ban", "geong yung sung yu", and even "ching chao choi sum" !!!~~~~

Fried Rice

This one is from "yong xing long"... 5 pounds for 48... but not half as good as what I had in the restaurant upstairs! It's all fat inside and no prawn... damn! But... it's good enough for what I've paid for so...

Siu Mai (Ok this one.. I just steamed)

Oh I love British pepper! It's sweet and colourful... Unlike what we get back home which is... tam mao mao... hahha...

Mee Suah (Ching tong)

Loooooook!!! Really really close....

I just bought my new Clinique liquid foudation coulple of days ago... and guess what?! The skin tone which I previously used (which was the second fairest) is no longer suitable and I now use the fairest! It's called "Alabaster".. What a weird name for a skin tone! But anyway, hoi sum!! hou hoi sum~!!! ahaha... This gloomy town with less than 2 hours of sunshine in a day on average really makes people fair and lovely lol~ But the trade off for this is that UK weather not only makes people fairer, but also fat-ter cause it's always so cold! In conclusion, I'm now officially fei fei bak bak~ lol! I can never lose weight here... I've given up long ago... So long I dont gain anymore thats good enough... ahem ahem excuses hehehheeeeee :)

Paris

Gooooodness gracious~! I just realised I did not upload any photos from Paris and Milan pre-honeymoon trip in my own blog!!! Aaah what a shame~ Blur blur sotong as usual.. Better late than never so here goes!

Nottingham

Nottingham is one of the three major cities in the East Midlands and is in the ceremonial county of Nottinghamshire, England. Nottingham's urban area is the seventh largest urban area in the United Kingdom, ranking between those of Liverpool and Sheffield.

Blackpool

Blackpool is believed to get its name from a historic drainage channel that ran over a peat bog, discharging discoloured water into the Irish Sea, which formed a black pool.

Pleasure Beach, Blackpool is situated along the South Shore area of Blackpool. The park is currently home to over 125 rides and attractions, including twelve roller coasters, of which five are wooden - the Grand National, Big Dipper, Rollercoaster, Wild Mouse and Zipper Dipper. The newest roller coaster is Infusion, the world's first suspended looping coaster entirely over water.

When it opened in 1994, Pepsi Max Big One was the tallest, fastest and steepest roller coaster of any park in the world. It was also substantially one of the longest, measuring 5,497 feet long. Currently, the ride holds the crown as the tallest in the UK, measuring 235ft above sea level.

The Pleasure Beach is the only park in the world to operate a traditional wooden Wild Mouse coaster. The ride was built entirely in house, post-World War II and is still in complete working order. It was also the first park in Europe to introduce a fully inverting steel coaster, Irn-Bru Revolution, and the first to install a S&S Space Shot ride, Tango Ice Blast. The park went on to launch Valhalla, which was designed by Sarner, a UK based theme park design company.

York

York is a walled city, sited at the confluence of the rivers Ouse and Foss in North Yorkshire. The city is noted for its rich heritage and it has played an important role throughout much of its almost 2,000 year existence. The city was founded in AD 71 by the Romans and was made the capital of Brittania Inferior. During the Roman period influential historical figures, such as Constantine The Great, became associated with the city.

The entire Roman Empire was governed from York for two years by Septimius Servius. After the Angles moved in, the city was renamed Eoferwic, and served as the capital of the Kingdom of Northumbria. The Viking captured the city in 866, renaming it Jorvik, the capital of a wider kingdom of the same name covering much of Northern England. Around the year 1000, the city became known as York.

Epos: Proud Sponsor of Malaysia CEO Award 2008!

THE watch industry is upbeat about the future of the market although sales have dropped moderately as a result of the financial turmoil.

ATG Watch Sdn Bhd, the sole importer and distributor of EPOS and Titoni watches in Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei and Indonesia, is looking for business growth and aims to enter Laos and Cambodia in two to three years.

It wants to be a pioneer in the upcoming markets, and will set up offices in partnership with locals, chief executive officer Tham Onn Chuan said.

"While some watch companies are downsizing due to the financial tsunami, we at ATG are talking about growth, and maintaining our earnings."

ATG is sponsoring two EPOS watches, worth RM17,000 collectively, for the Business Times CEO of the Year Award 2008. It has been a sponsor of watches for the event since 2006.

Woohing KL Sdn Bhd, the authorised distributor in Malaysia for Rolex and Tudor watches since the 1950s, is the main retailer for EPOS watches in the country.

The retailer, which operates the EPOS boutique at Starhill in Bukit Bintang, Kuala Lumpur, is also a partner for the CEO awards.

Tham said sales are in double digits, with 10 per cent profit margins, adding that ATG's office in Singapore will drive the growth of the company this year.It will spend 10-15 per cent of its revenue to promote and position its products.

"People are buying watches for their own collection and as giveaways. During the festive seasons, sales are on the uptrend."

ATG has eight collections of watches under the EPOS brand, with six to eight variances under each. They are priced between RM2,800 and RM178,000 a piece.Titoni is a more affordable range. It has 10 collections and the watches under each are priced from RM2,000 to RM25,000.

ATG imports the watches from Grenchen, the heart of the watch-making industry in Switzerland. Tham said ATG is targeting entry-level collectors for the EPOS brand who are not big spenders, but want to own a complicated Swiss-made watch.

Collectable watches are more expensive than the battery-operated ones because of the tedious and complicated watch-making process involved. These include hand engravings and linking components like the case, dial and hands, to give a precise time, Tham added.

"EPOS is positioned as a hand-crafted, complicated watch which is affordably priced. We have serious collectors who have the money to buy and do not care about how much they pay."

Tham said the collectors go mainly for watches with vintage movements, with high collector's value. While watches are harder to sell now, it is leveraging on EPOS' strength of hand-crafted and mechanical watches to boost sales volume.

Love is in the snow

It was snowing heavily that night
But your warm hands held mine tight
The weather may be cold and harsh
But I felt so loved that I almost blushed

Together we stare into the sky
Thinking of how often it snows
And how we hold hands in the cold
Even until we are both old
