This message is truly inspirational in my current predicament....Thank you Lord
On this day of your life, Sonia, we believe God wants you to know ... wealth does not come from your bank account, wealth comes from the depth of your heart.
What you really want is happiness. You might believe that a fat bank account will get you there, but that's false. Happy people are happy rich or poor, unhappy people are unhappy rich or poor. Money simply masks your real being by giving you activities to occupy your mind. Don't fool yourself, recession or not, your true wealth comes from your heart and is always only thereut that's false. Happy people are happy rich or poor, unhappy people are unhappy rich or poor. Money simply masks your real being by giving you activities to occupy your mind. Don't fool yourself, recession or not, your true wealth comes from your heart and is always only there.

A Clue????
On facebook there's this application called "God wants you to know..." and what it does every day is send you a sort of inspirational message from God and it starts of "On this day of your life, Sonia, we believe God wants you to know...."...and I tought it's kinda cool and I need some sorta inspiration cause I feel really bummed out at the fact that I'm gonna leave my family next week and go off to India for medicine....and so I got this one today... could it be a clue??
"On this day of your life, Sonia, we believe God wants you to know... ... that work begins when you don't like what you are doing.
Little children can do the most amazing things with such joy and fun. You were little once too, and knew how to turn everything into a game. So, turn your work into a game, and you will find joy and satisfaction in it. What are some ways you can start being playful with work?"
sounds good to me....

Another one of those things I have to let go... I guess...
I am so very upset today I searched the whole house and still could not find my phone...I accidentaly left it in the house before i went off to KL for a couple of days and when I got back it was gone just like that!...i try to call it but it always goes to my voicemail...I don't know if it's stolen or just lost somewhere in the house???...I hope I get it back because it was a present to me from my dad and one of my favourite one's too...I couldn't bear the tought of losing it!!!...Still keeping my fingers crossed..and hoping that I'd eventually find it:)

My Hero
It has been two weeks since my dad has left me...I didn't have the strength to pen it down..but i have picked up enough courage to say it now..I swear life is not the same...a million things remind me of him...and if I have to express my grieve i do it by myself because I have to remain a "rock" for my mother, brother and uncle...it's not easy but it's a task that i would willingly undertake because I love these three more than life itself...at times I question why?...but then I believe God has he's plans and everything happens for a reason...I am spiritual and I believe in life after death so NO my dad is not truly gone...I am grateful for the time i had with my dad this past year...never have I had the chance to spend that much time with him...the most I got to spend him if ever before this was a month and yet I see him in everything...I know my dad would never want me to be sad and knowing that he is in a better place truly makes me happy...he has been a very good, kind and compassionate person on earth and will get his due reward in Heaven I believe...I was right there by his side right till the very end and the one thing I could remember was how peaceful he was as he gently passed on and I knew that at that moment he had abandoned all life's worries and troubles...one day I wish to have the same and I believe at that moment is when we will meet again:)

Innocence Lost
The world is just so nasty isn't it..somehow people take pleasure in other people's misfortune...when someone living a seemingly perfect life takes a fall they go like.."huh!...there you go I told you they weren't perfect...hahaha...they have a sucky life...yay!! now I can rest in peace"...trust me growing up I've met a lot of idiots like these that just make me sick!! and I'm still meeting them along the way!....people are not all nice and sweet they have "evil"...feelings about you..just full of "the green-eyed monster"....
Now that the media has sort of succesfully torn this family to shreds....they just won't leave Kate and the kids alone...I mean hey leave her alone...if she wants to work and find money the best way she knows how for her kids....then just leave her to it....afterall her sodding hubby is probably out fehking( xcuse my language) his blow up bimbo...go mess with him instead....think of the kids what kind of life of life will they have being constantly hounded by the paps....should they even know what paps are I mean they're only 5!!! now that everybody is siiting back and enjoying the mess they've made by destroying this family have they evenntaken a second to think about the kids...mom and dad are living apart...why???...why are there sooo many people taking pics of us???...why do people stare at us like that???....now what have they done to deserve this??...why don't we see aunt Jodi and uncle Kevin anymore??? (oh and did I mention that even Kate's bro and sis-in-law are backstabbing her..because they don't get a fair share of money??...unbelievable)
It's just so sad I've been watching this kids grow for years and this is what it has come to because of nosey people who won't stay out of other ppls business???....all I can say is I feel bad for the kids...having to be in a broken home at such a tender age...just hope that everything gets better for them...fingers crossed...here are some pics in case you don't know them..sorry for overloadin but they're just so cute...I had to post tonnes;)
The kiddies:
Mady Kate Gosselin:
The Sextuplets;)
Collin Thomas Gosselin:
Aaden Jonathan Gosselin:
The Girls:
Hannah Joy Gosselin:
Leah Hope Gosselin:
The Gosselin Family:

~Keen eye for the right guy~
I know this is sooo random but was just roughly browsing and came across this picture of Robert Plant's son Logan Plant
and the for some reason the first thing that crossed my mind was wow he looks like the ideal Prince of Persia...minus the curly hairdo (I think he gets that from he's dad..haha)

~This week in review~
Ahhh...dissapointment...so sad cause adam didn't win...dunno why coz he was so awesome for the finale....haiz...I was soooo sure...I even got my cousins in America and Canada to vote and they were tuning in this Thursday...it was kinda like one of the best finale's I've ever seen on AI...can you imagine KISS was there...yeah lke Gene freakin Simmons and he's long tongue...Ace Frehley and he performed with them awesome...then he and Kris performed with Queen...and Adam totally owned but oklah he had the chops for that...he sounds a lot like the late Freddy Mercury and I think would make an uber cool replacement!!!
Well I also liked kris performance with Keith Urban(yum!)...was nice to...but country is not really my genre and stuff...yeah most of the peeps I know wanted Kris to win...including my dad...guess Adam's shrieking doesn't please all parties ...oh well:(
Heath Ledger is not dead ya'll:)
Oh yeah my dad suprised me with an unecessary new car today...well he actually traded the second hand wira for a Gen 2...which is in "Hibiscus Tea colour"...like what???...pink lah!!!
Here are some pics
kinda sporty but very powerful and liteweight...easy to handle...well that's all...and btw in advance ....I liked to wish my sweet Hannah "A happy Happy B'day"...see in advance so I'm the first to wish you although your b'day is next tues...sorry hun I can't make it cause my dad's b'day is on the 25th....but am confirmed to be comin' up to KL next weekend!!!
Have a smashing weekend y'all..TTFN;)

Finally something...
Hey all...sorry I never seem to be able to fill the blog with any stuff...not that I don't have anything I'm just lazy as usual....so since I'm sooo terribly bored today, I finally decided to get my lazy ass off the sofa and walk approximately 5 giant steps into the kitchen where the laptop is ( I know what your thinking not a good place for a laptop after my whole water incident) but my dad insists that it should be kept here for the convenience of others who wanna use MY broadband....so here I am giving' my phalanges due exercise...I wonder if I can still hold a pen straight?...geez
So well...firstly staying at home is not exactly easy peezy lemon squeezy...I gotta work as in do the dishes and other household chores...actually I don't mind it, just that currently there are three males(no offence) staying in the house so they leave a lot of mess around...and they hardly ever wash their dishes and stuff...well I'll xcuse my dad coz he's still not well...speaking of that...I am mostly helping my dad...and driving him around coz he's still too weak to drive and he had to get a couple of blood transfusions coz he's hemoglobin level s low...so I sometimes spend up to 6 hours in the hospital which is pretty cool but at times killer boring..honestly speaking I don't really like doctors..they're a little too stuck up and overrated...plus they charge too much for just consultations which really makes me wonder if they really love the profession or whether they're just in it for the money...I dunno bout local GP's...coz I was at the specialist centre so they were mostly specialists.....
Some of them are too greedy I think because they try to get as many patients as possible booked into one day that it's almost impossible to get through all of them...this doc told my dad to come at 8 in the morning and when we got there there were about another 20 odd patients waiting there turn...that they actually asked us to take a number!...like wtf?...then what's the main idea of making an appointment..I really felt bad for my dad...he was forced to get up early although he was really tired and he was scheduled for an endoscopy after the appointment so he had to starve from the day before...and by the time he got to us it was already 11...senseless??...don't they realize that they are treating the sick and not random people???....so while waiting I brought my dad for a walk around the hospital and went to check out my most fav place the NURSERY!!!....I love to see the newborns cause they're firstly so adorable and innocent some of them less than a couple of hours old...with no idea how shity, difficult and harsh the world is...I so envy them!
I have always wanted to get a job involving infants or little kids...so my options were to either be a kindie teacher, nurse or paediatrician...my dad disagreed with the first two...and he wanted me to be a doctor...I don't mind it but I dread the long hours and as I mentioned above I don't like em'...but I get to be around kiddies which I would love if I did specialize in paediatrics or maybe gynaecology anyway I applied to Manipal recently which makes sense coz the college is right in front of my house so I don't have to pay for lodging for the final three years...but for the first two years I'd be in India..at some place called Mangalore..now I don't know where that is but I guess it should be okay...it's only two years which is approximately the same amount of time I spent at Subang...at least I hope i done end up in anotha "my place " ...that would kill me seriously!!
So I got the interview letter last week which was a good thing coz the admin lady said that it meant that I was about 90% sure of getting a place but still needed the interview to confirm it though...and I was so sure that I was gonna screw it up because I'm not a good talker and I might reach a point where I might just run out of words and stare blankly at the interviewer which would be a total disaster...plus I am a total noob when it comes to interviews.....I was totally lucky that one of nigel's friend's mom was in charge of admissions and she gave me a couple of tips for the interview....basically I had to write an essay about myself in an hour...so I was thinking.....and realised that my life was pretty boring..coz i was not an athlete or scholar...plus I couldn't bullshit some random stuff caused if they asked me about it I wouldn't know what to say...so instead I rambled on and on about why i wanted to become a doctor...which turned out to be a good thing cause then they didn't have to ask me cause everything they needed to know was already in there....they asked pretty basic questions...about the family and what school I was from etc...etc..and a couple of questions based on what I wrote...
Then at the end one of em' sez "okay thank you Sonia...I can see you're very excited to go to India'...I was totally taken off guard and went..."ahhhh ya!"(not so enthusiastically...I mean after all it's India??) ...she smiled and said.."we'll send you the offer letter soon or I'll give you a call so you can come pick it up since you stay nearby".....me still in a daze answered.."yeah ahhh sure okay...thank you"..I dunno I must have said thank you 5 times!...and that was it...so I really am not sure what an "offer letter"..implies...I hope it's good! Oh well...whatever works for me am not picky:)
So yeah that's about all that's going on...I warned you that I was boring!!....and oh yeah I was listening to a little bit of Nirvana....in case you don't already know it's that 90's grunge band with Kurt Cobain..
and Dave Grohl who is now the front man of Foo fighters...with that famous song.."SMELLS LIKE TEEN SPIRIT"..ring a bell???...okie as you know Kurt blowed his head off years ago...okay that was a little harsh...I mean committed suicide because he was getting too famous...anyway we miss him dearly...but i just came across a little piece of him...he's daughter!!...and I can't believe how old she is!!! she's my bro's age!!..here are a few pics;)
as a baby with Kurt......
and her now on the cover of Harper's bazaar!!!
I'd say she got her looks from her dad and not from druggish looking mom courtney love (yishh!)...well okay she did clean up!
Whatever it is ...I can't believe she's cobain's little girl...that shows how fast time flies by...geez!
till the..TTFN:)
