Eat, eat and eat... Chinese new year is about to end but for the past 13 days I've been eating non-stop... From cookies to exotic delicacies that my mom will prepare only during special occasions, one after another I swallowed down into my tummy... Sometimes there are too many selection that it makes you think what food you wanna eat first... Which was a trouble when you love food so much... Anyways, putting up a few kilos during the CNY is definitely bad.

Now what I need to do is to shed some weight and get fit... Well photos of some of the food will be uploaded tomorrow. So that's all.

So Long,
Meowth, that's right!!

"What About Me"

There's a little boy waitin' at the counter of the corner shop
He's been waitin' down there
Waiting half the day
We never ever see him from the top
He gets pushed around
Knocked to the ground
But he gets to his feet and he says...

What about me
It isn't fair
I've had enough now I wasnt my share
Can't you see
I wanna live
But you just take more then you give

There's a pretty girl standing at the counter of the corner shop

She's been waitin' back there
Waitin' for her dreams
Her dreams walk in and I begged 'em to stop
Well she's not too proud
To cry out loud
She runs to the street and she screams:

What about me
It isn't fair
I've had enough now I wasn't my share
Can't you see
I wanna live
But you just take more then you give

So take a step back and see the little people
They may be young
But they're the ones who make the big people big
So listen
As they whisper
What about me

Now I'm standing on the corner all the world's gone home
Nobody's changed
Nobody's been saved
And I'm feeling cold and alone
I guess I'm lucky
I smile a lot
But sometimes I wish for more
Then I go...

What about me
It isn't fair
I've had enough now I wasn't my share
Can't you see
I wanna live
But you just take more what about me
It isn't fair
I've had enough now I want my share
Can't you see
I wanna live
But you just take more
You just take more
You just take more then you give

What about me
What about me
What about me

This is a song I'm currently listening at night before going to bed. A simple song that shows true feelings... It shows that we need to listen even to the little kids as we were all young once and knew the feeling of being ignored in one way or another... nice song to remind ourselves about how lucky we are compared to others...

Enjoy...

Well, I have been browsing on facebook and found out that a lot of photos were posted in the recent days. I've been wondering that why I don't have any to post? Just getting all emo on small matters... I've noticed that some people are posting early good byes and saying they'll miss others... and I am totally blank out... I know that this is the last semester... although I don't show that I'm gonna miss anybody but the hearts are kinda heavy right now... especially after seeing the "I'm Gonna Miss You Guys" posts over FB. Days are limited, I really need to do something special with my Uni buddies... well if they considered me as one... I'm always the one who went MIA (Missing In Action) for most events...

Taking some memorable photos... Maybe hang out together... Then it's time to say goodbye... Something is missing... but I don't know what it is... it's lost... I can feel it... it's lost...
Really hope to find it cause its important... the hearts is searching for the missing link...

Heads up Melvin Chua, there are more important things to do now... no time to be sitting in the room thinking about all the emotions... This sem we will go through thorns and flames... shed blood and tears... and still withstand the blows...

This is what I posted on facebook. A note to myself. The radio DJ from a chinese station suggest that we write to ourselves in order to understand ourselves better. I guess I'll be doing that for a few days to see if it really helps...

Re-Trusting : Gaining The Trust That You Lost

Trust like I have said earlier is the vital key to the bonds of relationships. Trust grows like how the big tall trees in the jungle, slowly and constantly if nothing serious happens. It is suppose to be established and unshaken by wind. If there are outside factors such as parasiting, rotting or lightning strikes, the very foundation of the trust will crumble. Parasiting and Lightning Strikes are similar, both an outer factor that will bring the great Trust down. Parasiting will slowly sap the essence of life that the tree had been keeping for it's lifetime and Lightning Strikes just strike without mercy at unexpected times. Rotting comes from the inside of the tree where the tree will be influenced by worms which lingers within it. Of course, you'll be lucky if there are some woodpeckers there to help you but in reality woodpeckers are almost extinct.

Even when the tree is big and strong and not affected by the 3 phenomena above, there are always someone who will try to axe it down for their own benefits. The benefits varies from one people to another. Money, popularity, or revenge (due to envy) might be the reasons behind the cutting down of the Trust tree. These group are forester.

As how the tree falls, every years taken to grow will be leveled to as low as the ground but as long as the roots are still intact to the ground, it will eventually grows and be a big tree again. Time is the factor to the growth. What was lost may not be achieved to the same extent as before but it's worth a try. The length of time to grow would probably be multiplied but it is still possible. When the tree falls, it will first need to clear whats inside, the worms that eating the very core. Then it needs to identify the parasites that are growing around it then throwing these parasites that are around it. Next is to let the growing to grow at it's own pace.

Parasites and Rotting can be stopped but Lightning Strikes and Forester are hard to prevent. The only thing to do is to equip the tree with some things to prevent the lightning strike at the same place and prepared for the unwanted forester. Probably by dropping some branches or durians on the foresters' head will do the job... not killing ya... remember self control and discipline to prevent rotting.

Lightning Strike is something that happens unexpectedly just like a god's trial to the tree. Parasiting is like the other beings around the tree that are taking advantage and trying to kill the tree at the same time. Rotting is from the tree's ignorance of self control and discipline. A forester kills the tree for utmost benefits and usually helped by the parasites. Roots will be your determination and inner strengths to withstand the fall to rise again.

World Destruction... Can You Feel It?

The Anicent Mayan Calendar ends in 2012, 21.12.2012. End of time. End of the world. The end of Mayan Long Count. The apocalypse.. Nostradamus sets a time frame around 2012 AD that the fearsome meteor will hit earth. NASA Announces 2012 Destruction Probable.

Many, many reports and information that you can get over the Internet. Yet, most of us are clueless, unaware and maybe don't even care about this... For those who believe their journey is still long, think again 2012 is just 3 years away... For those who are chasing towards the materials, ask this question, "Can I bring the materials to where I would be when the destruction hits earth?". Our lives has now become tha issue... the timebomb is ticking... bit by bit... we are strucked by little famine...

SARS, Bird Flu, and now the hottest A H1N1, the cases are getting more and more serious... I basically don't want to believe in this warnings... but the concern has reached my heart... I want to be rich, famous and satisfied... I don't want to perish in the flames of the destruction that I'm going to walk into... There are many things that I still want to do... Life... right now is no longer what it used to be for me... chasing the wind and stars... get good grades to get a great job that earns a lot... I don't want it anymore...

I just want to live my life... as how everyone should have... living to the fullest... with no regrets... I'm trying to do things that I wanted to do... trying to achieve as many dreams I have... trying to spent as much time for my friends and family... trying to say those words that I should've said to someone... Time for us have shortened... we should learn to appreciate...

As much as I would like to think that this prediction is fake and will not come through, I would also like to see the expression of those who wasted their lives and treated others badly when the time we known as "Judgement Day" arises... God's wrath on all of us, those who did the sins and for those who ignored the sinners... I just hope that god will change his mind on this one...

Life as a Trainee Part 1

I've been doing my Industrial Training in Daibochi for one month plus now... and I've found out that working life can be really dull if we repeat the same work over and over again... The office environment in the office is rather dead... besides the sound of phones ringing almost all at the same time, little voices of people chatting on the phone and sound of typing... It's rather dead.... the phone rings is like an echo... the ringing comes from one phone to another... It is such a headache to be hearing that early in the morning and throughout the day...Most of the time it makes you sleepy although you have loads of work to do...

However, Daibochi did a great job on trying to motivate their workers... giving incentives, food allowance, and some little appreciation lunches... Yeah although the canteen food sucks, but it is still edible and quite cheap... well the cheap part depends on the mood of the lady standing by the counter... Monthly assembly to remind workers on their goals and targets as well as giving out awards... and announcing the sales performace... Making the workers to feel appreciated and respected...

Mr. Soon Kim Chye, the Human Resource Manager, also felt that the office should have a little music at least... People in Daibochi till now, is still nice... of course there are some nasty fella also... well, Miss Mak told me that all crows in the world is same black... from a chinese saying... direct translated (;P), which also means that every company have the same mix of peoples... As much as I try to work, I might end up going online because I'm not that kind of people to do same thing over and over again....

Life as a trainee so far was rather enjoyable... and well a little more fun than what I thought of... So, this is my review and short updates of what I'm doing now... for those who are missing me... wahahaha... I'm quite okay right here, right now...

XOXO

A Day After The Exam

Hmmm... During the exam, I would just sit in front of the computer doing stuff that I'm not suppose to do... Practically not studying... haha... Yeah, most of my friends look at me like I'm some kind of... hmmm... how do I put this... well just too full of myself? Over confident? Somthing like that but I guess thats not a problem.. I'm just that way... The more I'm worried, I feel like doing something else... kinda weird...

But then, today was like so laid back and I was so free and yet... I don't feel like doing the stuff I did when it was the exam period like playing games... I felt weird myself... I'm doing something else when I have loads of stuff to do and do nothing when I'm free... Jeez

Anyway, I'm glad that exam is over and I look ahead for the Industrial Training starting June 1st... Haha... I'm going to train in a company, Daibochi Plastics located in Ayer Keroh Industrial Area... 4 months of training which is a requirement for us... Hope to learn something there... Before that, I wanna enjoy to the max... So Tomoro I'll be going out with a group of friends and planning to sing my heart out... Wahaha...
