过去; 现在.

在电台听到 Fiona 薛凯琪的 [Better Me]. 一听就很喜欢.
喜欢, 因为很适合现在的我吧. 一个重新整理行囊再出发的我, 一个人的我, 准备面对很多未知的未来的我. Choose to hug my life with tolerance, open my eyes to see a little more, step out a little further to move on, smile a little more because I think I might be pretty. Life is always a mystery, I always believe the goods and bads, they happened for a reason.
Just learn to be a better me.

过去, 年少无知也不知天高地厚, 以为未来是一件那么容易的事, 成长是那么不费力的事. 一路闯荡下来, 不知不觉就快要25岁了, 就要开始为未来的5年做准备了. 学习了负责任, 学习了面对害怕, 学习懂事, 学习世俗, 学习选择, 学习作主, 学习独立, 虽然没有一样做得好, 但还是做到了简单和肤浅. 我已经不是高喊要去闯荡江湖的海盗小王子, 现在, 我只是一个谦卑的旅客; 不再满口的冒险, 而是平淡简单的行囊. 以往要出去是为了不平凡; 现在出门是为了学会平凡, 学会看懂世俗. 过去是因为装满了勇气才出去闯荡; 现在继续前进是一步一步学会装载更多的勇气. 

或许, 这世上再也没有第二个人懂得这些 [过去; 现在] 对于我来说是多么具有意义的事.

Makan feast at Melacca - Part Two, Coffee.

Love how coffee tastes, love how coffee colors my life.

Recommended by my colleague: Calanthe Art Cafe.
11, Jalan Hang Katsuri, Melaka.
This cafe is located at one of the Jonker Street lorongs. If you have not visited all the thirteen states of Malaysia, welcome to this cafe, it has coffee of the 13 states of Malaysia.

It does not have Caramel Macchiato as well...so I ordered those which my colleagues described as "weird" coffee. We spent three evenings at this cafe after working, it is quite a nice cafe for relaxing, the desserts are good as well. I recommended the puddings and caramel slice, they are delicious and perfect desserts with coffee.
I love to look at the small aquarium and the cupboard with all the coffee-related things on it. Inspired me to start my own coffee collections, haha.

Learn to enjoy and appreciate something, is a gain, is a gift.

Makan Feast at Melacca - Part One.

A first working trip with three eating monsters to Melacca. Well, my trip ended up very predictable - makan and party to the max!
Melacca is not only well known for the historical scenery, of course, nice foods as well! Guess four of us are the lucky four to have this chance to enjoy our whole weekend with a formal excuse "business trip", lols!

Introduced by my colleague: Makko Nyonya Restaurant
No.123, Off Jalan Parameswara, Taman Melaka Raya, 75000 Melaka, Melaka.
I am not familiar with the location of Melacca, I think it is some where quite near to Dataran Pahlawan. There are a number of nyonya restaurants in Melacca. The previous nyonya restaurant I went with my cousin in January was Nancy Kitchen at Jonker Street. Both restaurant are good, I can't tell which is better. Gonna go Melacca again to explore more.

Satay Celup is a Must-try in Melacca. Introduced by my colleague as well: Restaurant Ban Lee Siang.

45E, Jalan Ong Kim Wee, Melaka.

One of the two famous satay celup, another one is Capitol. I tried both, but....unfortunately, I am not a big fans of satay celup, I only fancy satay....haha, however, it is a nice place for supper :)

Portuguese grill! How can we missed it? We had our dinner at Portuguese Settlement for two nights! Seafood and Seafood and Seafood...and the mango juice as well, taste sweet and sour, quite nice. I did not take much photos as my Samsung Note is always out of battery after the long day...lols...

Had my lunch on a late afternoon with my manager. This was recommended by him: Pork Noodle at Hing Loong Taiwanese Noodle.

No.11-J, Jalan Banchang, 75300 Melaka.

The location of this noodle shop is quite near to Ban Hong Xiang Tea House, which is a dim sum restaurant, yummmmmmm!

The noodle taste good, I feel like having more pork chop, the portion bit ... small.... lols.

Our breakfast on the last day of our working trip - Ban Hong Xiang Tea House, at Jalan Banchang. Niceee~~~the whole table was full of platessss...... Cheers! My colleagues memang eating monsters...however, we fully enjoy the trip ;-)

现在是阳光刺眼的凌晨。

今天重复听的歌是戴佩妮和黄威尔的 [我们之间] .

常听人说, people come people go.
有时候, 我都不敢去回想那么多的过去, 也带着那种忐忑的心情等待下一刻.
很想说, 我真的有在努力, 无论是坚持或是离开, 我都是那么的努力去让整个句点完整. 成长, 最让我讨厌的部分就是领悟, 最让我庆幸的部分也是领悟. 有时候, 那些越清楚的画面, 越是尖锐刺眼.
"Till we meet again."
此刻, 我也真的明白, 在不明白, 和在明白的情况下, 说了这句话, 真的很不同.
我放下蒙着眼睛的双手, 阳光突然变得那么刺眼, 我本能的锁紧眉头紧闭着双眼, 慢慢的, 还是睁开眼睛看清楚眼前的风景, 去领悟属于我的风景. 也许, 这是一件好事, 我终于可以放开一些人一些事, 往自己的方向前进.

此刻, 多想梦见阳光美丽的午后.
