Deliciously Me
Putting the 'licious' in everything

Today I’m feeling very spiritual.
I didn’t know what hits me – I just couldn’t stop listening to chants the whole day. And when I said chant, it’s not the normal chants that you used to hear in temples but the very relaxing chants from Imee Ooi. I’ve never been so relaxed for so long. The last time I had such feeling was when I went for IDC. This feeling is so awesome, so peaceful. Even when negativity surrounded me earlier, I’ve managed to manage it very well. I’m so amazed with myself – to be frank. Big Lol!
Eh wait. I did feel at peace when I was at Shi-tennoji temple. Prolly it was because there’s a monk chanting that time. The power of words. Haha! Or was it physiology effect?
Anyway this is my current addiction. If not mistaken, ‘Namo Amitabha’ is repeated 108 times.
Means Hello!
Went to Phuket with Satkuru last Wednesday. A totally awesome trip. Ever-smiling, top notch service by the Thailanders. Made me went woahhh! with wonder many, many times.
Philippines or Pilipinas. A country with beautiful people and beautiful sky.
Ah well, except for Manila where the place is more hectic, and smoky and horrendous traffic. But hey, Manila’s the capital and that’s what you usually find in a capital. Lol.
As much as I wanted to write on Philippines right away, but I still have 2 pending posts on Indonesia; so probably Philippines would start in August. Still, I felt that I should post something related to Philippines since I’m still in the post-philippines-trip mood. Lolololol!
Hence a video upon reaching Philippines. Enjoy! 
Our next stop was a sudden and unexpected one. It was a favour done on behalf of my good friend, Wenyan; which consequently led us in doing good deed too.
Wenyan went to Cambodia 6 months before mine. While vacationing, she was saddened with the fact that the children in Cambodia lost their parents due to war (with Khmer Rouge) and landmines. Hence, she vowed to donate the remaining USD50 from her trip to the orphanage. However she couldn’t place the donation herself in the airport, thus asking me to donate on her behalf.
She did tell me to bank in the money to the orphanage of her choice (which she included in) – if we couldn’t go to the orphanage or see any donation box for children welfare.
However, I couldn’t do so as by the time we finished our tour in Angkor, the bank already closed.
So, Sat told our tour guide, Siya about Wenyan’s intention of donating money to orphanage. Lucky for us, Siya’s sister is working in NGO for children’s welfare and he called up his sister for advice.
I can’t recall if he asked us to pass the money to his sister or not, but I think we told him that we want to personally give the money to the orphanage and I added in that I don’t want the money to fall into wrong hands.
Siya understood and told us that we could stop by an orphanage centre on the way back from Prasat Kravan.
But then, we went back directly to our lodge. On the way back, Siya told us that there is one nearby our lodge and suggested us to buy rice from the market for them instead of donating money.
Which made us asked him, “how much is a bag of rice?“
“USD50 per bag of 50kg.”
Which was then the decision of chipping in the money to USD100 to buy 2 bags of rice arised. I mean it doesn’t look good going all the way to the orphanage just to send in a bag of rice. Afterall, we as a human aren’t made of cold heart – should do charity if we could. So the suggestion of everyone paid equally of about USD7 or more if one insisted came up too.
Thinking back, contributing RM24.50 to charity is like so little only! –”
Everyone agreed, and off we went to our lodge for quick shower and dressed up for that night was our last night in Cambodia.
Since the guys were faster in showering as compared to the girls, the guys went to the market with Siya and our van driver to get the rice. Which was a good thing as we could rest a little longer. Kaka!
However we weren’t that slow. After we were done, we walked down and waited for the van.
Though a minor dispute happened – but we got our rice! And off we went to the orphanage with excited heart. I don’t know bout the rest, but I know I was super excited in meeting them. Kaka!
Two days ago, I heard this song on Channel V, and I totally fell for this. The melody, the Chinese instruments in it, everything, it’s so nice cannn…
The song is nice at it own, but adding Chinese instruments like yan ching and Chinese flute in it, makes the song sounds even nicer. Don’t know why I felt rather nostalgic and sad, with lots mix feeling when I listen to this song. Since I got this song from Mike, I’ve been listening to it like 20 times d? LOL!
However, I dont like this song – Xin Ge Shi Chang, also sung by him. Don’t know why, I feel sleepy watching that video in youtube eventhough it’s an upbeat song. It’s good for him to try singing different genres of songs. Not saying that he can’t sing upbeat song, he can. Just that I personally don’t like him singing songs of that genre. Or maybe just that song. If he comes out with another upbeat song and my ears like it, then I shall say it is nice. Well, that’s my personal view, so no tonguelash here. If you think Xin Ge Shi Chang is nice, then ma nice lor.
To me, I prefer him singing slow, ‘emotional’ song like Tears from Polaris (Bei Jing Xin). That song – OMG! I can melt if he really sings in front of me (although as I stated earlier, I dont really gila him. *bleks). I just can’t stand guys singing to me that kinda song with that look in their eyes. What look? That look lorrrr!!! -_____-
Anyway, thumbs up to Nicholas Teo for being so successful in Taiwan. Maybe your popularity increase furthermore. And yes, I like your songs. Not all, but selected ones. *bleks~ (As if la he reads my blog. LMAO)
