If only I can print this and put it in my resume~ (read the first paragraph)

You entered: Khor Zhan Shuo

There are 12 letters in your name.
Those 12 letters total to 65
There are 4 vowels and 8 consonants in your name.

Your number is: 11

The characteristics of #11 are: High spiritual plane, intuitive, illumination, idealist, a dreamer.

The expression or destiny for #11:
Your Expression number is 11. The number 11 is the first of the master numbers. It is associated with idealistic concepts and rather spiritual issues. Accordingly, it is a number with potentials that are somewhat more difficult to live up to. You have the capacity to be inspirational, and the ability to lead merely by your own example. An inborn inner strength and awareness can make you an excellent teacher, social worker, philosopher, or advisor. No matter what area of work you pursue, you are very aware and sensitive to the highest sense of your environment. Your intuition is very strong; in fact, many psychic people and those involved in occult studies have the number 11 expression. You possess a good mind with keen analytical ability. Because of this you can probably succeed in most lines of work, however, you will do better and be happier outside of the business world. Oddly enough, even here you generally succeed, owing to your often original and unusual approach. Nonetheless, you are more content working with your ideals, rather than dollars and cents.

The positive aspect of the number 11 expression is an always idealistic attitude. Your thinking is long term, and you are able to grasp the far-reaching effects of actions and plans. You are disappointed by the shortsighted views of many of your contemporaries. You are deeply concerned and supportive of art, music, or of beauty in any form.

The negative attitudes associated with the number 11 expression include a continuous sense of nervous tension; you may be too sensitive and temperamental. You tend to dream a lot and may be more of a dreamer than a doer. Fantasy and reality sometimes become intermingled and you are sometimes very impractical. You tend to want to spread the illumination of your knowledge to others irrespective of their desire or need.

Your Soul Urge number is: 7

A Soul Urge number of 7 means:
With a number 7 Soul Urge you are very fond of reading, and retreating to periods of being alone and away from the disruptions of the outer world. You like to dream and develop you idealistic understandings, to study and analyze, to gain knowledge and wisdom. You may be too laid back and withdrawn to really succeed in the business world, and you will be much more comfortable in circumstances that are tolerant of your reserve, your analytical approach, and your desire to use your mind rather than your physical being.

You are very timid around people that you don't know very well, so much so at times that casual conversation and social situations can be strained. You tend to repress your emotions to the extend that some people have a good bit of difficult understanding you. You tend to be very selective with friends and you don't easily adapt to new environments or to new people very quickly.

The negative traits of the 7 include becoming too much the introvert and isolated from others.

Your Inner Dream number is: 4

An Inner Dream number of 4 means:
You dream of being a very solid citizen that people can depend upon. You strive for organization and predictable order. You want to be recognized as a person with a plan and the discipline to make that plan work like clockwork

The Leaning Tower of Pisa - How Leaning Can It Be??

Okay, lets talk about Italy today..
Specifically, Pisa!!

Upon arriving in Rome, we were greeted by Father Julian.
In case you forgot how he looks like,
here is his photo..


*Susan Chin, Stef Elena Chin, Father Julian*


After picking us up, Father Julian lead us to Rome’s terminal to head for Florence.
When most of our friends (both backpackers and tour followers) took coaches to travel,
we took trains for long distance travels.
It is indeed more expensive, but you do get what you paid for.
Comfort as well as short time needed to travel.
The trains cost us €200 for 5 days unlimited travel!!
A whole RM1000!!!
*Oh did I say what the €200 is student price?? Adult ones are about €300+*
But the cost of transportation is already calculated in your travelling budget so I guess its okay.


*Eurail Pass which costs €200 and my Passport*


*Eggplant, Bacon, and Tomato Panini* Panini = Bread


*A slim can of Sprite*
These 2 are our lunch *yums*


*Stef trying to feed Peewee but ended up posing for the camera*


*Florence Train Station*


*Can you find Rome, Venice, Pisa, and Florence there??*

Its all in Italian and they call it Firenze instead of Florence.


*
Most ALL of the trains are vandalised by graffiti.*


*A small part of Italy which isn't eye catching*

According to Father Julian's itinerary,
We’ll spend our first night in Florence but we’ll head for Pisa after checking in.
After a quick check-in, we board the train to Pisa, 1 hour ride from Florence.


*Florence is MY KIND of town..not really advanced nor fast paced*


*There are people walking, while some people sit on the bench and chit chat*

Such life..NICE!!!


*This is how a typical Italian building looks like*


*There are lots of street performers there too!!*


*Not to mention the statues available in Italy..*


*..their churches too!!*


*The streets of Pisa*

If you ask what's the one thing that I wouldn't forget about Italy,
I'll say "Gelato!!"
What's Gelato??
Its actually Italian ice-cream. All homemade!!



*You can never get enough gelato!!!*


Oh you can see that??
The building is leaning!!
Thats why its called the leaning tower.


*The leaning tower*

Its not really magnificent, but really worth looking at.


*No one will give up the chance to take a photo with it after travelling so far*


*..and also to do stupid things typical tourists do*


*I forgot if this is the Basilica..*


*..or was it this..*


Anyways..

Peewee has a chance to take a photo as well!!


Here are some more photos of the place..



After half a day in Pisa, we head back to Florence.

*Vandalised train*


Back in Florence, we were greeted by Emilio, Julian’s Italian friend.
Emilio is a really interesting man. He has a PhD in Geology and is married to a Malaysian.
Because his wife is a Malaysian, Emilio speaks english with Malaysian accent, also with the La’s and Wan’s. Really funny!!!
Oh he speaks mandarin too!!
Emilio, along with his brother took us to their home for dinner.
A really nice family. We had a really nice dinner.

They prepared many courses for us. A very italian-ish dinner they said.
1st course:
– Baguette with chicken liver spread *Really good!!!*
- Baguette with cheese and salmon spread *I know you’ll think its good but chicken liver tasted better!!*
- Salami, Bacon etc

2nd course – “Butterfly” Pasta with Salmon
3rd course – Oven baked pork chop, Salad, Oven baked potatos, tomatos.
Dessert – Gelato (Choc with liqour, Oak seed, Lemon)

We spent alot of time eating and chatting. A really nice family.

*Family dinner*

We talked alot, feels like having dinner with my family again.
That made me miss them alot.
After the dinner, Fung kinda emo-ed.
He said that dinner made him wanna go back home faster.
Hehehe~ We’re such “home-ly” people (:

After the warm dinner, we head back to our hotel to rest.

And thats all for our 1st day in Italy.
More to come next time!!

Oh the next one will be Florence - Duomo..
Not a really long post I guess..


Sneak Peek:

[2009.10.15]

Si princess ini craving for meatballs that day.
It was a Thursday.
I remember because she was supposed to have meatballs on Tuesday but didn't make it.
So I brought her out for it the next time we met, which was a Thursday.

I was supposed to pick Chien Hui up from Serdang and go to Sunway Pyramid to have a birthday gift made after lunch.
But Chien Hui said that she has to wait for the repairman so WE went out while waiting for Chien Hui's call.
Went to Ikea, head for the Ikea cafe right away!!

Here are the photos that we took that day.
Princess ini complained that we seldom take photos *WIDE SMILE*

Leaving Sheffield

Today is Oct 19, 2009.
But my blog post will date way back from Sept 14 *thats the day I started my Rome trip*
So here goes!!

[2009.09.14]

Finally, it is time to leave Sheffield for good.
I’ll be coming back to this place once more before I leave to bid it goodbye.
From 28 people in the AEM course became only 6 of us.


*Me, Vyen, Sunkel, Yean Ree, Andrew, Ming Hong*


Now there will be only 4 people as Ming Hong and I will be going to London by coach at 4:30pm.
The rest will travel to London tomorrow.

4:00pm

We arrived at Meadowhall Interchange earlier to check which terminal we should wait at but there’s no challenge to that *smiles*
While waiting for the coach to arrive, we have nothing to do so Fung tried to sleep as he didn’t sleep much the day before.


*Sleeping Fung*


Fung didn’t sleep because everyone had a great drinking session the night before.
I didn’t drink because I don’t enjoy having hangover and being blur while travelling.
So I slept early and the rest enjoyed themselves..till this morning when they suffer hangovers.
While Fung slept, I have nothing to do so I played with my camera while taking care of our belongings.


*Our belongings*


The coach arrived on time despite Su Lin’s complaint about it being late for very long during her trip to London.
Oh well, I guess she’s just unlucky.
Nevertheless, we board the coach and it left the interchange really quickly.
According to Gina and Su Lin, Megabus offers £1 tickets to London..If you book 2 months in advance though.
We didn’t really have a specific plan back then therefore we got our ticket for £7.
Its not really that expensive actually. We didn’t need to stop, it is an express coach.
4 hours straight from Meadowhall Interchange to London Victoria.

The bus was quite comfortable except for the fact that Fung and I have to sit with strangers as everyone sat alone.
*You would do that too if you’re travelling alone*

The bus was pretty smooth, a pretty enjoyable ride I would say.
The bus departed at 4:30pm and we arrived at 8:30pm.


*Whilst in the coach*


Fung, showing his smarter side asked me to buy the bus to Stansted Airport where we will be boarding our flight to Rome 1 hour prior to our arrival.
His reason is simple, we rather wait longer than missing the bus if we were late.
Smart Fung...


*Stansted Airport*


We arrived at Stansted Airport safely, Stansted is like LCCT I would say.
Once again, snap snap snap since there’s nothing to do.



After meeting up with Stef and her mom, we checked in and waited to board the flight.
The flight was delayed awhile because there was some problems with the baggage but it was solved..Thank God!!!



*Stef, Susan, Ming Hong, Leslie*


After arriving in Rome, we were greeted by Stef’s friend, Father Julian.

*Father Julian*


We call him Father Julian as he is a Catholic Priest.
He has been living in Rome for 2 years now so he planned our trip for us.
*Starting to feel blessed now*

According to his itinery, we will head for Florence as soon as we reached Rome.
For Florence and Pisa, wait for the next post!!!
But here’s a sneak peek.


*Peewee kicked the leaning tower of Pisa*


Till then~!!!
*I'll try to update my blog as often as possible..No guarantees!!*
