Some of the photos taken during the visit in Phnom Penh....
Some at at the street home, some are from the school and some are from the households we visited...

He's around 3-4 years old. He was sent to the street shelter after the in-charge persuaded his mum (who's living on the streets) to send him in...


(The family now runs a business selling the above thanks to World Vision providing them with a loan... )

(See the bicycle... it's as tall as the kids)

New Year

Wishing all a very Happy New Year!

Everyone is hoping that 2009 will be a better one than 2008 in terms of economy and world peace. Well I wish for that too. That good news will arrive and bad news will now be the past and history.

Any new resolutions for Year 2009?
Well I guess at least 2 resolutions from Year 2008 will still continue to be part of this year's resolutions. Reason - I have not accomplish that! haha..

Was thinking of what I want when I realise that I want many things.
But actually they are more of good-to-have than must-haves. I'm currently pretty contented with I've. So I guess I should continue to feel this way. Afterall what I usually wish is for happiness and that according to many, that is not definitive but a state of mind. So if I could be pretty contented with I've, achieving the aim of happiness is not too faraway... hmm...

Wishlist: Top 3 Wishes

(1) To accomplish my 2 wishes brought forward from Year 2008
(2) To travel at least 2-3 times a year (my favourite is travelling!!!)
(3) To lose weight (",)

Hope everyone has a wonderful year ahead!

New Year Resolutions 2009

The new year is coming again... 2009...
How time passes... it seems yesterday when I'm still 18? 19? 20?
haha... when I'm still at the age of studying... and now?
I'm at the age of working hard.... but not as hard as past few years when I seem to own much and more energies...

But I think I've become more mature and more appreciative and contended with what I've as I grow older... now that seems to be a good sign... hmm... minus the fact that I'm getting older and more people will call me "Auntie" more than "Jie Jie".... hmm...

Last year when approaching 2008, Me, 贝儿 and Cool-san all wrote our New Year Resolutions on a piece of paper. Saw my 3 resolutions last week when I was cleaning my drawers. That brought me memories as I thought through what I've achieved to date. Seemed that I only achieved 1 of my 3 resolutions... hmm... well at least it's not 0? haha... (Ah Q spirit once again)

Now I'm thinking what I should write for the upcoming year resolutions? New Year resolutions for 2009... any ideas my friends? What about you all? *Putting on a thinking cap now* =)
