The Climb

I can almost see it
That dream I'm dreaming but
There's a voice inside my head sayin,
You'll never reach it,
Every step I'm taking,
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking but I
Got to keep trying
Got to keep my head held high
There's always going to be another mountain
I'm always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle
Sometimes you going to have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb
The struggles I'm facing
The chances I'm taking
Sometimes they knock me down but
No I'm not breaking
I may not know it
But these are the moments that
I'm going to remember most yeah
Just got to keep going
And I
I got to be strong
Just keep pushing on, cause
There's always going to be another mountain
I'm always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle
Sometimes I'm going to have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb
There's always going to be another mountain
I'm always going to want to make it move
Always going to be an uphill battle
Sometimes you going to have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb
Keep on moving
Keep climbing
Keep the faith baby
It's all about
It's all about
The climb
Keep the faith
Keep your faith

Yovela : The meaning


Name : YOVELA


Origin : Hebrew


Meaning : Rejoice


I looked for her english name for months and from A to Z before she was born. While her dad would think of her chinese name. Before we settle with her name right now, her dad actually had another name for her THIEN RUON YIN and i was about to settle with AMY. But it was not finalised. I felt RUON YIN is too 'heavy' on her. So we kept on searching. Finally i found the name that suits her surname THIEN and her new chinese name YINQ QIAN. I'll ask her dad the meaning of her name later. I forgot the meaning.

Ipoh, Perak

The place we stayed..Ritz-Garden hotel... the one with bright pyramid roof
Ipoh have many abandoned shophouses
old time design
trying to open the lock
never fail to amuse herself with the mirror

Ipoh is an unbelieveably quiet town even during day time. Just came from a big city and 6 hours later arrive in Ipoh is really a calming experience. Especially after we almost lost in KL road [ i was not the one driving. LOL ]. I heard a lot about how calm & peaceful Ipoh was, i just can't believe it all until the recent visit. WOW!

Restoran Chun Hui, Muar

taking these pictures while waiting for order to come
this place is popular for its Assam Pedas Fish
waiting...
the signboard.on the way down to jb from muar town
*peace*
their kitchen
Muar Specialty ; Otak - Otak. another dish shown here is the fried fish. This fish is so familiar but i forgot the name. Ikan daun kah or something like that...coz of its shape.
Sambal Udang & Sotong with Petai. Unbelieveably spicy until it taste bitter. You'll sweat & cry at the same time. In Muar, the chinese eat like the malay. Eat spicy food also...
The Assam Pedas Fish...minus the Pedas Gravy. We ordered the spicy gravy separately...for safety reason.
Muar Assam Pedas Fish! Spicy!

Apple Pie II

have extra dough so i made 3 teddy shape pastry placed in between the slits. Brush egg on top. Bake for 45min - 1 hr , 210 degree Celcius.
remember to provide ventilation for your pie or your pie will burst half way baking.
freshly cut out.
another way to have fruit into one's diet.
can you see the sweet juice? By adding a few cubes of butter on top of the apple mount before covering the pie, you'll get extra juicy pie!
This morning breakfast ; apple pie with whipped cream & a glass of milk
Before
After

It's a very easy pie to make. Any type of apple would do. This time i used Granny Smith a.k.a green apple. Granny Smith still maintain its crunch even after it is baked.

How to get a crumbly crust?
The secret is in the butter and icy cold water. I used normal butter bar and cut it into small cubes and store it in the fridge before using it. Beside the butter, i add cold shortening too. When mixing the ingredient together, try not get your palm in contact with the mixture. Even better, try to use fork. Once the mixture of flour, salt, butter & shortening become a crumbly mixture, add cold water a little at a time until the mixture become a dough.
***
2 1/2 cup flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 bar of Anchor Butter
4 tablespoon shortening
1 cup ice water
