For Japan With Love

I'm sure by now, we've all seen it.
Seen devastating photographs. Watched heart-wrenching footages.
And have thought, how helpless we are all.

But we can help.

For Japan With Love is also encouraging donations to ShelterBox. ShelterBox was one of THE first organizations asked by Japan to help and were on hand on the Saturday after the quake. Each large, green ShelterBox is tailored to a disaster but typically contains a disaster relief tent for an extended family, blankets, water storage and purification equipment, cooking utensils, a stove, a basic tool kit, a children’s activity pack and other vital items.

Please check it out and whatever you can contribute will be so appreciated.

As part of a college Rotaract Club, I've raised funds to donate to ShelterBox to help children in a third world country. Now, Japan needs our help.

Happy Valentine's Day

I choose to wish everyone today, and not yesterday.

Because I think love should not be defined by what day it is.
I'm one of those anti-valentine's people, who condone everything about the day.
Sure, overpriced flowers and jewelries can be a bit too much, but what girl doesn't like to be romanced a little.

So.. all couples out there, hope you had a lovely day.

Those who are single, be happy. Give yourself a treat. =)
Mr/Ms Right is just around the corner.

Changes for the new year~~

Well, as I set in my 2011 goals, I had to join a yoga class.

I went to the dance studio (owned by my sister's friend) and had my first class last night.

One word of the outcome. Stiff.

*grins*

Heck, now I'm sitting here, body-aching. Yet, I'm excited. I think this yoga is going to do me a lot of good. *yay*


Now let me go grab a coffee... =)

New Year's Resolution(s)~~

In keeping with many people, I've set myself some goals for 2011.
Posting here would make it easier to motivate myself since I will review these goals by the end of the year here!
I have myself and this blog to answer to!

So here they are:
1) Eat healthily - Already started a pescetarian diet 3 months ago, my goal is to keep this up. And slowly shift to a full vegetarian, (if my family allows.. =/)

2) Keep this blog alive and well... trying new things on it each month.. target is to reach at least 50 recipes by 2012. (that's at an average of 4 1/6 recipes per month; very VERY manageable as long as I don't slack!)

3) Give More - Volunteer more at shelters. (Setting a mere target of twice per month.)

4) Join a yoga and dance class. 

 

5) Start swimming again. I need to find a suitable, clean pool around here. (Speaking of which, anyone knows any clean and safe pool in and around Klang or Shah Alam?)
