I'm a simple person. I am no supermodel. I’m just an ordinary looking girl with a great smile to offer. :) As Mother Theresa said, “Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing.” I am a typical Cancerian.

I have made a few very good friends here. These are the people who are a thousand of miles away from me, yet they are capable in making me feel better than the people right beside me when I am down.  We talk about our work, life’s ups and downs, experiences and lessons learnt in life, share a joke or two, bantering with each other.  Life is already complicated enough. Don’t be too serious. Don’t make it worse.

NO SCAMMERS please!! I can identify who you are. I am not a pen pal collector. So, please do not send me friend's request if we haven't communicated. Do not bother writing to me if there isn't much written in your profile.  By the way, I am no one's love, baby, dear, darling, sweetheart, sweetie pie etc. Terms of endearment are acceptable if I am very close to you but they are not and they annoy me if I do not even know you at all. If your message begins with any of those, you can be very sure I won't reply because it shows me you haven't read my requests before writing.

I enjoy gardening, listening to all types of songs except heavy metal, watching telly, surfing the net and reading, especially inspirational short stories, poems and quotes.

I like to travel too. I hope to find a travel companion one day. The last country I flew to was the USA.  Visiting the USA was my childhood dream. I grew up watching a lot of American telly programmes, like Little House on the Prairie, The Waltons, Eight is Enough, Roots, Happy Days, Dallas, BJ and the Bear, Greatest American Hero (remember the song?)  and a lot of other 1980s television series.

All kinds except heavy metal and loud music

Thriller, drama, horror, true stories, musicals.

Chicken Soup for the Souls, non-fiction books, self-improvement books

"Don’t feel sad over someone who gave up on you, feel sorry for them because they gave up on someone who would have never given up on them." (a reminder to myself)

"Try not to become a man of success but a man of value." ~ Albert Einstein

"Expectation is the root of all heartache." ~ William Shakespeare

“A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.” ~ George Bernard Shaw

"Everyone makes mistakes in life but that doesn't mean they have to pay for them the rest of their lives. Sometimes good people make bad choices. It doesn't mean they're bad. It means they are human!"

"Don't try to understand everything, because sometimes it is not meant to be understood, but to be accepted."

"If we could look into each other's hearts and understand the unique challenges each of us faces, I think we would treat each other more gently, with more love, patience, tolerance and care." ~ Marvin J. Ashton

"When people walk away from you, let them go. Your destiny is never tied to anybody who leaves you. And it doesn't mean that they are bad people, it just mean that their part in your history is over."
