Walk With Eu

The Last Goodbye

2012-01-03T00:41:00.001+08:00

It was the night when I deactivated my Facebook account due to some unresolved issues that I didn’t wanna put it in words…

It was a really sad night for me, when I had to leave and stay alone once again, like how I did before when I thought I found a “family”. But everything changes when time comes.

If things could come around, I don’t want any more arguments and quarreling going on, I don’t wanna speak on who is right and who is wrong, but just to love with all my heart… But I had to leave, for the better… I think…

I even thought of committing suicide after what has happened, but the ripper didn’t answer my call… maybe it wasn’t time yet… but at this point, I could only hope that it could answer my prayers…

Life is never as simple as ABC as time goes on. Therefore, if you’re reading this… I wish for all the best, even when I hoped that time would turn around, but things have gone up to an unresolvable stage.

I'm sorry for everything that has happened, and I also wanna thank you for everything that has happened before... because it was the most magical thing that has ever happened in my life...

Good luck and all the best in your life, as well as to everyone out there…

And Goodbye…

3 Days London [United Kingdom] – The Bullet Train City

2011-11-29T01:39:00.006+08:00

Everything is about speed and efficiency in this city of London. Everyone walks with a speed, train reaches every few minutes, seeing high level of efficiency as well as the people. I am truly amazed on how much people could walk in the United Kingdom, which I see it as a really good thing. Lesser road transportation = lesser traffic jams, and with such high level of efficiency, everyone could be home on time for dinner.

Although it would not be a preferable city of mine due to the environment and not that friendly people around London compared to Liverpool, I think it is still an ideal place for people to travel for a visit. Beautiful day and night view as well as a really historic city, definitely a nice place to hang out with friends and families after a long tired day of work. It wasn’t a really great memory staying in London, even though we have got free accommodations, all thanks to my friend Mike Ooi for letting us stay over… :) THANK YOU!!! But if you’re not prepared for a busy city, then please do not visit London. Other than that, London is definitely a nice place to go to… :) Cheers Londoners.

SHIUE NEE!!!! WE MISSED YOU!!!!! :(

MALAYSIANS SPOTTED!!! haha...

20 Days “Refugee” – (Day 18 –> 23 – Austria -> Luxembourg -> Brussels -> Belgium -> Amsterdam [Holland] -> London [UK])

2011-11-29T01:13:00.006+08:00

This will be the last piece and also the end of my 20 days Europe trip, but this will not be the ending of my visit to these wondrous places on earth. The fusion between human and nature could be seen throughout my whole journey, as I was blessed with not only a great memory, but also great knowledge about the world.

As for this last post, I’ll let the pictures do the talking… :)

LOVE CHEESEEEE!!! :)

Me and my bro in Amsterdam... :)

20 Days “Refugee” – (Day 15 -> 17 – Florence [Italy] -> Venice [Italy] -> Verona [Italy] -> Austria)

2011-11-10T19:40:00.004+08:00

It has come down to so many days of traveling, and we are only three quarter through the whole trip as planned. But still, we are all enjoying our days in different places. Although a little bit rush, because we are traveling through 10 countries within 14 days (excluding the 6 days Scotland trip), therefore, there are many things that was missed out.

But one thing that I do not care most will be tourist attraction places. I am a person who loves to walk through small alleys, looking at different things rather than seeing things that everybody is looking at, and could be found in Google. But of course, I will just pass by those humongous and gigantic buildings for a picture or two, and there I go, back to my mission.

Walking past Florence aka Firenzi was just another city. Nothing much different compared to other places around Europe. Although there is still some differences compared to other cities in Italy, but Florence can be seen as a place for the average people rather than for people above the line. We could see gypsies begging for money with a fake pregnancy, and of course we know what to do with it, but with smaller sculptures everywhere and markets, it tells me that people here are living the old skool way (But things in the market ain’t cheap at all).

Then we moved on to a place where everybody would be linking it to “love”, Venice, in which I would link it as a maze. It is just so hard to find a place out from there and I don’t really felt loved. Perhaps, sitting on the gondola would give me that feeling, in which I did not, or maybe perhaps I did not have a partner to be with. But for me, Venice during the day is just another island. Although it is majestically the floating city in which I was awed and surprised on how they could actually live within rivers that kinda stink, but I was really impressed on the strength and ability of human to survive anywhere around this world.

Finally, the last destination of Italy, Verona. Didn't do much there, just stopped by for a Chinese cuisine. But I was addicted by the sound of basses once we got out from the Chinese restaurant at night. It was so tempting and I would want to try it out. And of course, tons of good looking people around too. Walking pass a street could see 9 out of 10 of them are seriously good looking. But of course, after all the bad day that we’ve been through (bus wreck for few hours, and got stuck inside the bus having free saunas), everyone looks ugly. Haha…

We then took the night in Verona, moving on to Austria the next day. Nothing much in Austria I would say. But the crystals there are cheap though. I didn't buy much cause I need to budget, and of course I bought some little gifts for my friends and there we go, end of story in Austria…… WAIT!!! Forgot about the dinner in Austria. The food was great. We had bacon, and it was really well cooked. Finally we know how to eat that thing the right way. LOLZ! Not really an Asian’s taste, but it was still edible because everyone was hungry. Thank you for the nice hospitality though. :) Love it…

20 Days “Refugee” – (Day 12 -> 14 – Switzerland -> Monte Carlo [Monaco] -> Nice [France] -> Vatican City [Italy] -> Rome [Italy])

2011-11-10T01:18:00.004+08:00

This is might be a long post because I have been writing for a few days due to exhaustion as well as the inconvenience of writing it.

Previously, we’ve talked about Switzerland, therefore I’m going to skip it and go straight to Monte Carlo, the capital of Monaco. There are a few things that I’m curious about this place (but definitely they have an explanation for it):

1) The size of Monaco = The size of Monte Carlo.

2) Does everyone have a ship or cruise or whatever there? The numbers are much more crowded than the number of cars in KL (a little bit exaggerating).

3) Since that most of them are rich people there, can’t ya’ll make that place a little cooler? IT IS FREAKING HOT!!! HOW CAN YOU STAY THERE??!!

But it is definitely a place that amazes me out. I saw cars that ferries players of Manchester United. But we moved on to another place, out of the hot place. But one compliment from me, it is freakingly beautiful there.

Next, we moved to Nice, a place of where Mother Nature comes together with human lives. The combination is so perfect until it turned into a dream place of mine. I swear that I will move there one day because it is a place that everybody would’ve dreamed of. The beach and the structure is just perfect. And I think that it would be a little bit more affordable compared to Monaco. :P

On the 14th day, we set foot into a one of my dream city (before I came for Europe Trip), Italia, which has totally changed my perception after that. Italy is a beautiful country, just that I’m really amaze on how they park their car. It is totally impossible for a car to get out from that parking space. Gosh, they’re god. But of course, stepping into the holy area of Vatican City really opened my eye. The structure is so well built, which has gave me a deep impression. They really did a great job coming out with the smallest country in the world.

But what I can’t remember the most is getting hit by another person in Rome *ngek ngek* (didn’t know my market was so international. Maybe I should consider getting one overseas since my market is not in Malaysia)… LOLZ!!!

20 Days “Refugee” – (Day 11 – Switzerland)

2011-11-10T00:58:00.003+08:00

Everybody woke up early with the excitement towards one thing that we don’t find in Malaysia, SNOW!!! *WHEEEEEE~~~* I was happy, I was anxious… I was having fun… I was playing snow… and now I can tell the world that I’ve touched snow.

*Ahem* sorry.. back to the topic. Switzerland, a dream country for the rich people to stay on. A person could tell by the way they dressed themselves, by their price of food, by how they walk, how they live, and how they act. Status and classes are definitely different compared to Malaysia. Therefore, we all acted the same. After taking a hike on Mt. Titlis, we took a trip down to Luzern, the city of Switzerland, which was hot, but beautiful. This was the only trip that I walked alone with a map without any friends (Because I was lost)… but it was fun to look at the city alone.

Although there is nothing much there, but the city is beautiful. A person would be amaze on how Swiss people could actually cycle in the middle of the road without being hit by a car or honk by a car. On the contrary, if a person tries to step into a driving lane in Malaysia, he is either to be honk by a car, screwed by a driver or hit by a car. That is the differences. It is just amazing on how everyone could live in harmony together rather than fighting for their place in the society at all times. I think this is what Malaysian society should’ve learn from them, which is creating a peaceful and harmonious living place.

20 Days “Refugee” – (Day 10 – Paris)

2011-11-10T00:45:00.004+08:00

It was the last day in Paris before driving ourselves to a new direction, a new place, and a new culture. I think Paris has a plan for us in mind, just that it would reach in time, therefore crying out in grief, through the tears of the sky. That is why, this last day would be a little different, looking at Paris, in the colour of black and white, feeling the grief of Paris, the city of love, because Grief, is a part of being in love.

And coming to think of it, I didn't thought that Paris would be my 200th blog post. CONGRATULATIONS!!!

even though there aren't many blog readers here, but I will still continue writing. :) Cheers...

20 days “Refugee” – (Day 7 -> 9 – Liverpool [England] -> Paris)

2011-11-04T00:45:00.009+08:00

It was another day back at Liverpool, and this time, the feeling is different.

Stepping back at the place we used to live for a while was dreadful, looking at the buildings for the last time, has brought me a happy yet sad feeling, because we shall be apart once again, and this time, for real. When would I come back to this lovely place? I wouldn’t know. But one thing that I know is that, I will be back. Because Liverpool will never ever let me walk alone. :)

It was a day we met up with my bro, Justin, who has decided to stay on for his studies. It was a great reunion, as well as a sad farewell, because like I say, this would be the last time, for real. When would we meet up again, only heaven knows. But, I am pretty sure that all of us will be meeting up again in the future.

After a long and heartache farewell, we see ourselves once again on the bus leaving the city we love, to a new destination. This time, with a new tour guide, Sam, who will be leading us around the whole Europe. Excited huh? Yeah, it was a total excitement for each and every single one of us. Thinking about Paris, the city of love? And there.. we’re so in love. Haha..

But I was quite shock when I first stepped into Paris. The weather is as hot as hell, but the people were nice… I mean some of it. And thinking about the city of love… hmmm… wasn’t really lovely at all… with a massive crowd around the city as well as a really bad traffic…but not until the night when we took a ride on a boat around the river of Paris, looking at Eifel tower shining throughout the night and the people having fun throughout the city, and there is where the love starts. :)

Then we took off to a dreamland the next day, DISNEYLAND!!! Every children’s dream land, and I’ve fulfilled it. :) I’ve got myself a Simba at the end of the day, and also I saw Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Buzz, Woody, Simba, Pooh, Pinocchio, Peter Pan……………(etc etc etc.) and I was screeching like a small kid. Playing with one of the best games I’ve had around the world as well as the best stunt show ever, this is what I call fulfilling a dream of a lifetime and I was so SO HAPPY!!!!!

Thinking back now, Paris isn’t such a bad place after all. Nice food and nice place to play. Even if it is not my ideal place to stay, but it will still be a choice for me to visit Paris once again. :)

Having my final lunch with my bro, Justin in Liverpool... :'( we missed you...

20 days “Refugee” – (Day 6 – Glasgow -> Lake District [Scotland -> England])

2011-11-04T00:24:00.003+08:00

It was the first chapter of our Europe trip that comes to an end, but the second chapter is about to begin. But before it begins, this whole chapter has told me on how beautiful nature could be. It is that the buildings as well as moving a country towards a developed country killed all beauty.

Just like Malaysia, the beauty of a forest could only be traced and scaled down to certain areas around the country, and could no longer survive as a forest in the city, overtaken by the concrete jungle. Even though each structure built has its own beauty, but being natural is still the best. But it would be the best if humans’ creation could blend into nature without disrupting its’ beauty.

Even though Scotland was left behind, but the memories were left inside, my mind, and shall never be forgotten. I heart Scotland… :)

20 days “Refugee” – (Day 4 -> 5 – Lochness -> Isle of Skye -> Fort William -> Glasgow [Scotland])

2011-11-03T22:43:00.003+08:00

Stepping into the fourth and fifth day of Scotland has seriously brought us a little bit of boredom as most of our times were traveling within the bus, looking at trees, castles, ocean and mostly scenery. Not as refreshing as the first and second day of our trip.

But one thing for sure, we lived the myth of Nessie in Lochness, but too bad, we did not get to spot any lake monster around. But I bet Nessie will be an adorable monster. :)

Another remembrance would be climbing up the mountain of Isly of Skye. It was dreadful, but thank goodness that the weather was cold. It rained on that day, but the feeling of success and proud is indescribable through the viewing from the top of the great mountain. But still, after traveling for so many days, for me, just another scenery.

This is when hope is trying to bring a person down, something new came up. We’ve finally stepped out of forest and trees and scenery, and walked into the city of Glasgow. Could be rated (by me) as one of the most beautiful city at night as well as during the day. Minimal amount of jams with tons of pretty girls and boys to look at.

My rating for pretty girls and boys: 8.5 out of 10.

Not bad right?

Definitely an ideal city compared to Kuala Lumpur that is full with unneeded jams all around the clock. But each country has their own culture and way of living life, and I think that Glasgow, is the life that I would want to live in.

Main reason: it has lots of FOOD!!!! Variety kinds of food that I could say that it is a globalized city, but with a restoration of their own culture. :)

Cheers to Glasgow. :)

I just can't stop looking at this pic...

he is just so adorable.... :)

20 days “Refugee” – (Day 3 – John O’ Groats [Scotland])

2011-11-03T15:37:00.004+08:00

I remember telling how beautiful Scotland was, but those weren’t anything until we came to John O’ Groats which tells the story of god’s creation. The beautiful rock carving by the hand from heaven as well as the creation of sea creatures swimming around, really made our day a memorable.

Looking at sea lions swimming and popping their head up from the ocean surface really made our day. This is definitely my first time taking a look at wild sea lions and I find them adorable. I even named one of them after me… :P Really hope that this scenery would stay unpolluted on earth, as this is definitely one of the most beautiful god’s creation on earth.

Introducing EuEu... I told you I named him after me... :)

20 days “Refugee” – [Day 2 – St. Andrews -> Stonehaven -> Inverness (Scotland)]

2011-11-02T22:18:00.003+08:00

Time has taught us on how to appreciate things better as we travel along. The limited amount of time traveling from a destination to another has teach us that time is precious, which should be learned not only throughout the trip, but throughout our lives, as time should not be wasted.

This day, we have been brought to various places, and definitely, the scenery was a difference between heaven and earth, it is as if that Scotland was created in heaven and brought to earth, a place similar to where the gods and goddess live. Even though moving on to a new life has been great especially with great environments, but most importantly would be moving on with a bunch of new friends, spending time together, adding on with the some picturesque scenery, the memory is still within my right now.

And I knew that the story doesn’t end here, and more is to come in the coming days of our trip. :)

20 days “Refugee” - [Day 1 – Liverpool -> Edinburgh (Scotland)]

2011-10-28T16:55:00.003+08:00

It was a hard time for everyone when everyone will be walking in separate ways. It was not the distance that made tears shed, but it was the heart, the pain and the joy that everyone has been through together, hoping that it would never end, but things must move on.

Tears of happiness & Sadness

still missing ya'll you know... :)

Two dudes that I've met in Liverpool

and the one below doesn't wanna come home...

so, it was a real farewell... :(

Ginny: I still owe you a ghost story..

We took our first trip to Edinburgh, one of the cities in Scotland and it was an unforgettable day as we’ve travelled for hours throughout the night, reaching Edinburgh first thing in the morning. Cleaning ourselves up in a nearby train station and that is where our 20 days journey started.

A nice city, nice view, nice place, nice people, but just a little bit too crowded with people and building renovations which has made our day a little bit tougher than we thought. But it was expected because this is the first time that we’ve stepped out of our comfort zone, facing a different world. But, we adapted to the environment quickly. Walking through museums and sunbathing on the beautiful garden, it was definitely a great way to kick start our journey and this is just the beginning...

It was a fun day hanging out with new friends, new gang which has brought us all together, so intimate, so close, and this was where the fun begins...

Home... I'm home...

2011-10-23T12:18:00.002+08:00

It was a month back when this song popped out and everybody was so addicted to it, a song sang by many artiste, called "Home".

This song came up since we started our journey from Paris, and it has still been on my mind when I was in Rome, which could see a distance of 9 days apart.

Going through all the obstacles together, this song has definitely been part of our lives, and our memories, which has also been reminding me about my past love life, seeing an old chapter in an old book right now, kept far apart from my life.

But no matter what, life moves on. This song, for those who are apart from their country or homes out there, I think this is the best song that speaks out your mind... :)

Cheers peeps... :)

The third day…

2011-10-05T03:18:00.001+08:00

It has been 3 days since my heart has jailed itself from you. I almost gone crazy back then because of all the sudden pressure. Until today, wanting to talk to you at all time every time I come online. So many things to tell you, but no longer can be made a conversation, but only a thought, not much than just a dream. Wanting to share my happiness with you once again, but it ended up another day trying to get you away from my life, in which I did not want to at all, not until today.

I was singing in the studio with my band mates after four months, and one of the song was known as “I Don’t Love You” by My Chemical Romance. That song came in and I had to sing. I saw your figure when my eyes are close. I couldn’t open it, not wanting to face the world without you. My tears were rolling in my eyes, it did not drip, because I knew, no matter how hard I try again, the trust between us has been broken. Just like stores written “once broken considered sold”, and this is where it has been sold to me.

Nothing much that I can do right now, but missing you, and at the same time learning to let you go, living a life without you. I know you have been living a good life without me, the annoying me. No more voice heard from me, I bet it must be peaceful, but too peaceful for me to live, turning into loneliness in my life without you.

I know that as days goes by, I would live a life without you. But at least I knew that in the future, my past life had you and I will be glad that you exist, teaching me again on how to face the reality of life, cause there will never be a fairy tale story for me, or for anyone on this earth, because there is never a thing known as happy endings.

A 3 months story

2011-10-01T07:40:00.005+08:00

It all started back in June, when I’ve taken my first eye on a person I’ve fell in love with. It wasn’t easy for me to fall in love with another person again because I’ve not fall in love so deeply and madly with a person for years, but until the beginning of June when I met this person, so charming, so full with charismatic, so full with attraction which has brought love to me, and there is where it brought me to the first step of approaching.

It was back then when things started happening, in a good way. I’ve seen you much often than usual, getting so attached to you until I think I’ve quite gotten into your nerves, that you’ve started avoiding me. All until the day you were sick, and that is when more chemistry happens. Thanks to you that I’ve learned how to cook to care and love for a person, and thank you for giving me this chance. I know I might not be the best cook around the whole wide world, but I really hope it helped to cure your sickness at that moment.

Things changed more back then when I remember that day when you’ve started answering my phone. I know I can be quite a noisy person, and I know I can be quite annoying. I’m sorry to scare you away, but all I’ve always wanted was to grab your attention more than others trying to grab your attention. I didn’t know it would hurt so much to try that hard, but all I know that this beautiful story didn’t just end this way, and that is how it all started, back then on 11 June 2011.

The story moved on to the summer of July in the beautiful United Kingdom. I’ve started to looked wider and upon my sexuality, as how I’ve tried to hide all these while. I know that sometimes being different is always a bad thing, but not this. No matter how I’ve seen this, this was beautiful. I didn’t know how much should I care and how much effort should I make, but seems like this wasn’t enough. I didn’t know how to deal with things, but I’ve started telling people without any fear in my heart any longer. Although there are still some doubts about it, but I was sure that you brought me the first step into my reality of life and thank you for doing that.

I still remember the our first kiss, the kiss that you’ve given to me, the first kiss you’ve thought me on how magical it could be, and the first kiss which has changed my life for the whole 3 months of getting together with you. The life was different, and definitely the best life I’ve ever had. Each kisses gave me more courage to love you more and each kisses has definitely brought more love from me to you, and that is how much love you’ve brought to me today, and that is how much I love you today. We hung out in my room often, getting busy with our assignments, at the same time spending time together. I’m sorry I didn’t date you out for a walk that often, because I was really tired at that moment, and now I regret.

The story continued into the first step of autumn of August when we’ve walked together, playing together in clubs. I’m sorry that I was being strict on you on drinking, but I was only concerned on your health, because it was never good. I’ve promised that I would drink with you as much as you want once we’re back, and I hope I really did put up to that promise. This is also the month when you held my hands tight and I’ve asked you to let go. I’m sorry I did that. But if there was a chance for me to correct what is wrong, I’d never have let it go, never.

August wasn’t a long month till September arrives when things comes apart that each of us had to walk our ways after our studies, and with high hopes that I thought that things would be back as usual when we’re gathered again, but I was wrong. Things have most definitely changed when I was back. Throughout my trip around Scotland and Europe, each and every step I made; each and every breath I take, I was missing you like crazy, and even now, I’m still missing you madly, until the day when I was back when you’ve told me that we could only continue being friends, and that was the day everything has changed.

I know that it might sound weird to say that I’ve cried for days, but indeed I did. I’ve cried over the phone; cried in my own room; cried even at the last night that I was with you, fulfilling my promise to drink with you. I couldn't even sleep since the day you told me that you're leaving me, thinking about you all day and night long, without fail, and you're the first person who could do that to me, and I appreciate it. It was not easy for me to take that challenge, because I was having hopes that I would have you back by my side. You held up the phone and called me, started asking me questions, beginning off with what was inside the bag of souvenirs. I’ve answered every single souvenir, but I was so stupid to miss out a thing, the letter that I’ve wrote to you, telling you on how much I love you, hoping that you would be back for me, hoping that I could call you my dear once again.

You’ve also told me stories that I didn’t really want to listen to, but I’ve listened, saying that you’ve found another man. It was a hard story for me to accept, and really, I took it really hard, and sorry that I was so stupid that I did not try to even bring you back, because what I thought was that the best thing to do is to leave you to show on how much I really love you, for you to do the things you love.

You’ve told me to never feel sad seeing you being with another man in the future, and I’ve promised you that I will not be, but at that stance, my heart was squashing like mad, and now I’ve regret. But a promise is a promise. I know I’m still madly and deeply in love with you right now, I know I’m still missing you so much right now, hoping that your lips would touch mine once again, seeing that spark between us once again, but seems like the autumn leaves have fallen and there is nothing to save left.

I know I was being stupid at all times because I was stupidly, madly blurred by my love to you. And if there was any chance for me to get you back, I would do anything to get you back into my arms, hugging you tight and never letting you go again, and this I promise. I knew that I’ve promised many things, but I hope to fulfill it. I promised to let you go, but I just couldn’t. Telling myself to wait for you to be back seems like another false hope. I didn’t know what to do, I didn’t know what to continue, and I didn’t know how to continue writing this piece of story any longer, because giving blessings to them is just another lie in my heart. Although I would really wish that they would live happily ever after, but I wouldn’t wish my story to end right here.

This story was beautiful, was loving, was charming, but has come to a full stop, even when I was wishing to continue writing chapters of stories about our love. If there were a chance for me to change and to get you back, just tell me, because I would do anything to get you back. But for now, if you needed somebody, I would always be there for you no matter what happens, especially when you fall, and that is when I will be there for you, always.

I love you.

Seems like this...

2011-09-28T21:11:00.001+08:00

I know that it is hard for you to read this message, but there are a few things that I want you to know…

Seems like life has come to a point when things have changed for both of us. It is always hard for me to tell you things that I should’ve discuss with you all these while but seems like things weren’t as easy as I thought. I kind of knew that this would have happened but have always kept hope that things will be better after everything is over. I was being so naive thinking that things will be the same as how it was back then when I’m home. But things have changed. Changes which have brought many thoughts into my mind.

I was away for a month for a trip around Europe after my studies, and didn’t know what decision to make when I knew that I had to leave you away, but seems like the decision I made was wrong, leaving you alone. But I was thinking about you the whole journey of my trip. Every single step I take, every single move I make, you’re the person I think about at all times. But one thing I wasn’t concern about is who you were thinking at that time, because things have changed. I remember asking you “will you miss me if I were to leave for so long”, and at that moment, your answer was “you’ll find out soon”, and seems like I’ve already found out the answer when these words came from you today.

I didn’t know how to respond at that moment, I didn’t know how to deal with that kind of response, because all I’ve ever hoped for is to be with the person I’ve loved. I still remember when I was in Rome making a wish in the wishing well, when we would need to toss 2 coins into the pond to make our wish come true. The first coin is a promise to be back at Rome, while the second coin is my wish, and I’ve wished to live with the person I loved so much at that moment. Seems like wishes are just dreams after all.

My heart was filled with bitterness and my eyes were flooded with tears, flashing back those memories. I still remember you holding my hand so tight that I felt so much in loved with when we were in the club, but I’ve asked to let go, which I’ve regretted for life, because that is what I didn’t want you to do at all. I didn’t want you to let go of my hands. It is just because that it is still too hard for me to accept the reality of life, which is why I’ve asked you to let go. But, I’ll never ever do that again if I’m given another chance. I know how much it felt, but I’ve felt that I was loved so much by you at that moment. So much that words could not describe.

I know that I’m still not on par with how you live your life but I’m learning and I’m trying. Cause in my life, all I’ve known is how to walk straight to the ending point of my life and not having fun with it, but I know I’m trying hard to learn and change, and even though I’m not there yet before the time limit is up, I will try harder, if there is still a next time. But all I want you to know is that I’ve loved you like I always did back then, and up till today, it is still the same. I know that this relationship will not happen when it is only a single sided love, but I just want you to know that I really did the right choice loving you at the first place.

I know it is hard for me to let you go, but chemistry won’t happen when it has only a type of chemical in it. But all I want you to know now is that I’ll still be there for you when you needed somebody, and all you need to do is just to tell me and I’ll try my best to be there for you, at all times. I loved you, and I really did.

The Last Time...

2011-09-02T04:45:00.001+08:00

The last time, sitting in my room; the last time, staring at my cupboard; the last time looking out this window; the last time, walking down this lane; the last time touching this table; the last time, lying down on this bed; the last time, holding on to the winds of Liverpool; the last time, listening to the cruise from Albert Dock knocking through my window; the last time, looking at the clock ticking away, seconds by seconds till time arrives; the last time, writing this blog post in the place I used to call home.

But it will never be the last time as these memories will float up in my mind.

Farewell for now, my friends…

And Farewell for now, my love, Liverpool…

The Only Goodbye

2011-08-31T12:29:00.004+08:00

It has been over a week that this song is stuck in my mind, because things from this short chapter shall end soon, and starting a new chapter of life. It says that “life is just chapters of goodbyes”, in this song, Here Comes Goodbye, by Rascal Flatts. It speaks a lot of my mind, as well as my soul, my feelings, my thoughts, as important people come and go in every part of our life, seeing that we should face the fact of life.

But the real goodbye exists only in a single place, at a single time, in a human's life.

It Has Been Long…

2011-08-29T07:24:00.012+08:00

A short journey have set foot in the heart of Liverpool city, and as long as I could remember, this might not be the best thing that has ever happened in my life, but definitely the most phenomenal experience that I’ve attempted in my life. The people, the crazy environment, the hectic studies, as well as the lovely heart-ached relationships that I had, my heart fell in love with the place I’ve landed my foot in during this summer.

But definitely, there are lots to offer here… and of course, we had

Lots of Kiddo…

Lots of dancing…

Lots of shopping…

Lots of picturesque scenery…

Lots of photo shooooting…

Lots of waiting…

Lots of Footballing…

Lots of History Remaking…

And of course…

Lots of FUN!!

But no matter how the sun rises, the day would still come to an end and the sun has to set…

Liverpool says… "You’ll never walk alone"…

and I know with your memories around…

I will never ever walk alone…

Journey of a life…

2011-07-13T23:01:00.001+08:00

LIFE HAS NEVER BEEN THE SAME FOR THE PAST MONTHS… AS THINGS HAVE CHANGED, PEOPLE HAVE CHANGED, LIFE HAS CHANGED… THINGS WILL BE DIFFERENT FROM NOW ON… AS WELL AS HOW THINGS WILL CONTINUE TO CHANGE… AS CHANGE WILL ALWAYS BE A PART OF OUR LIFE…

It has been a while since this blog was updated due to the hectic schedule that surrounds me all day and night long. It has always been life in life out… thinking of what to do next rather than dreaming on what I will become in the future. Life has turned shorter and much quicker than usual, when everything is about time management, 24 hours is barely enough for anyone to spend. Nothing is ever enough in this new land I’ve stepped. Therefore, the only thing we could do is to make things enough for us, by running proper planning and proper executing of plans. But regardless of what we do, it is still never enough… nothing is enough… because the loved ones are not around, therefore, the most important part of life is gone, and never be found back, therefore, love is never enough, even when the new one comes.

Life is hard out here for everyone, and we all knew that. Life is hard back there, even though we’re not there, but still, we knew that… but life has to move on regardless of what happens, even through the toughest storm, the hardest rocks, or the roughest road, clock ticks as well as life. Therefore, don’t stop on what you’re doing, never give up and never move back; never stop just because you’re tired, but rest while you’re moving, even with the slowest pace. Life sucks to the max… but face it. Face the only reality of life, because we’re only going to live this life once, and never the same life again…. Live it well…

I’ll be back soon somehow… while life has been disastrous for me, but cherish it ourselves, with our heart, as the world will shine bright as the emotions will soar up high to the sky, and without a doubt, the world turned green and blue once again, after the darkness of the night. Enjoy life… and never regret…

8,000 Miles From Home

2011-06-05T18:53:00.000+08:00

It has been a week since I left home, to a place far far away… living, staying, adapting and learning to live another life, without the help of my usual bros and mates around, life isn’t really as pleasing as it is. People changes, life changes, attitude and behavior differs and relationship stretches, which creates a total disaster in my previous life.

Staying in Liverpool for a week now has been a great life, especially with all the shopping going on. But being apart from my home country has been sickening. Home sick is the word to portray all the hard times I’m having here, despite the need to concentrate on the new life here in the United Kingdom.

It was not the fun that has brought me here to Liverpool, but it was the fun before I came all the way here that has brought me to life, thinking that everything would be just fine, but seems like things has gone haywire since I left. Perhaps this is known as the “culture shock” that I’ve studied within my course, when I no longer belong to anywhere, not my home country not the country that I’m staying with right now.

The toughest moment through the toughest decision will not stop here, but if things are not mould well within this short period, war will be created, and things shall not go back to how it has been. Even though I’ve mentioned that things will change in life, but this is definitely one of the worst choices ever. But to face the fact of life and to see how things could go differently, challenges are taken and things should flow the way it is.

I might hate myself for saying all of these, but this is the fact that things are different. The mentality, the thoughts and the behavior, everything would still change accordingly even though I don’t want things to happen this way, but the only choice is to accept it and try to cope with it every time it happens.

But what I can say is just to wait and see, to see how things goes and let the flow be the guidance of the new life at this point of living.

Reaching the Peak ~ David Choi... the Youtube Sensation

2011-03-31T23:30:00.000+08:00

THE MUSIC GENIUS… THE YOUTUBE SENSATION… DAVID CHOI!!!

It has been a while since this Youtube sensation fab has been going on, and until today, this trend is still moving on as more and more people dominates the world of Internet. With the improved and improvised technology that has been used, many artiste has been brought up to the scene, from the virtual to the reality, and here is one of my favourite, David Choi.

David Choi is a music composer, lyrics writer, and basically, everything about him is perfect when it comes to music. Multitalented in music production and musical instruments playing, great in movie shooting, that has been telling people around the world that there is nothing impossible with the creation of the Internet. Therefore, he has been my idol since I discovered his appearance on Youtube, and now, he is coming to Malaysia.

Malaysia fans who has yet to know that David Choi would be coming to Malaysia, please view his tour list as it would be on June 2011, when David would make his first appearance in the country. But sad to say that I would not be around during this period of time as I would need to commence my studies, far away from in the Kingdom.

Nevertheless, I took the initiative to come up with something, to tell that, Malaysia is craving for David Choi to come to Malaysia. 1 fan might be down (and that is me), but there are still plenty of others who wants him here. ^^

So, please enjoy my cover of this song, “That Girl” by David Choi.

~No Boundaries~

2011-03-26T20:44:00.001+08:00

HUMANS ARE ALWAYS TELLING THEMSELVES THAT THERE ARE RESTRICTIONS TOWARDS THEIR OWN LIFE. BUT HOW FAR CAN THOSE BOUNDARIES GO? ONLY THEY WOULD KNOW.

It has been three days since I’ve finished my sinus surgery and still in the midst of the recovering process. This could be considered as my first surgery that I could ever remembered, because there was a past minor surgery too (in which the scar is still there), but just simply couldn’t remember when. My mom told me that I had my first surgery when I was two years old. But who could remember what happened then right?

To tell the truth, I was anxious and excited about the surgery I had, because this might be the change of my life, a new grasp of air into the lungs that has never felt such cold breeze before, due to sinus which has been a boundary towards the lungs. But once the boundaries are removed, life has changed.

My thoughts, my eyes were all wide open on how humans can do things beyond boundaries as everything in life has their toughness. But I have quickly learnt that boundaries are all made by humans themselves. Take a look at laws, rules and regulations, terms and conditions, which of them are not made by human themselves? The only thing that each human has to do is to step over it, and there it goes, a new life, a new adventure, and a new breath to the life.

“There is no boundary in life… the only boundary would be ourselves…”

“Live life with an open eye, as the world awaits you with an opened eye…”

Living the Dream…

2011-03-17T00:47:00.006+08:00

EVERYONE HAVE THEIR DREAM, BUT IT ALL DEPENDS ON HOW WILL THEY BE ACHIEVING IT…

“I wanna be the next David Cook; I wanna be the next Ryan Secrest; I wanna be the next Bruno Mars; because that is the place where I belong”…

Every dream has a platform to be fulfilled, just like a performer performing on stage getting their fame recognized by millions and billions of beings living upon the earth crust. TV shows which has fulfilled such dreams would be for instance, American Idol, the X Factor and many more.

Whilst Malaysia used to have these talent shows going on before when I was still in my high school era, but seems like things has disappeared. Dreams shattered as super beings being treated as normal human, because another chance was not given to them to fight for what they want. And this is the trouble causing major local artist to perform and start their career outside the country.

Really hope that they would revive such a talent show such as the Malaysian Idol again, because this is not only a platform for people to come together, but it is also a platform for people to start a new life, a new career and as a new being, which would bring Malaysia’s entertainment industry to the top of the world.

I could still remember that Malaysian Idol was a great platform for people with big dreams to be artist, and the top 3 performer in Season 1 was also multiracial. What do this mean? This mean, when everyone comes together, it could be strong, as proven by the top 3 idols which are multiracial. Regardless of standards and other elements, everyone can come together at the same platform and be a part of something that unites the country together.

I’ve heard Malays supporting Chinese contestant during the competition, I personally support Jaclyn Victor during Season 1, and everything comes jumble up which is what really reflects the country of Malaysia being together as one.

Adding on, it has been years since a multiracial talent show has been on the television, because what can be seen are all single racial talent shows that are running, especially within local television network such as, 8TV, TV3 and also Astro.

Also at the same time, if American Idol Season 10 can be a hit on television network after the reformation, I don't see why Malaysian Idol can't do the same which might also bring hit towards the International entertainment industry.

Therefore, hope that things like this would be revived in television, as this could be another television and entertainment industry history, just as proven in the Asian Idol, the past Malaysian Idol and also the reformed American Idol Season 10, that could be taken as a reference.

Beyond Limitation ~ The 11 March Japan Quake and Tsunami

2011-03-16T01:03:00.004+08:00

IT WAS JUST A DASH THAT LIFE WERE SWEPT AWAY BY UNEXPECTED WAVES; IT WAS JUST A DASH THAT DREAMS WERE BURIED DOWN INTO THE WATER; AND IT WAS JUST A DASH THAT LEVEL OF MISERY INCREASES…

It was 11 March 2011 that reminds the past occurrence in the province of Sichuan, where lives were taken away in just a glimpse of an eye, without the time to save the ones that they love or even without the time to save themselves, where life has gone.

The Japan earthquake – tsunami has not only show that the world is still full with compassion, but also a lesson to every single edge of the world on how everyone should be united should this type of event occur once again. Although there are always limit on human strength, but at least we try to help each other, holding on each other’s back while others are having trouble, therefore, others would hold our back when we have ours.

Look into it, even an advanced and modern country could have some issues and problems that cannot be solved, because everything is fated. But what about our country, Malaysia? We have no disastrous natural disaster, but why aren’t the people working better than them? Or is it because that the nation itself is too safe therefore safeguards on every person are down and worry less compared to those countries which are prepared for all sorts of disaster?

But nevertheless, it is time for people to wake up and face the fact, not only for Malaysians, but the whole world that giving out a helping hand would not be as hard as you think. All you need to help is a person in Japan. Therefore, if this world gives a hand to each individual in Japan, imagine how fast the country stand can back on its feet, and perhaps, might help you grow taller in the coming future through their help, their brains and their technology.

Don’t always look at it as a marketing opportunity, but always look at it as a responsibility towards other human because we’re entirely the same, equal and we’re all beings of the earth. Therefore, if this is not the chance to show compassion, when would it be? The next disaster? Or when it is the end of the world? Start now… and don’t wait…

The Missing Me…

2011-03-16T00:24:00.004+08:00

IT HAS BEEN A WHILE SINCE THIS BLOG WAS UPDATED, PERHAPS THE LAST UPDATE WAS TWO DAYS AGO, BUT BEFORE THAT, IT WAS ABOUT A MONTH AGO. BUT BECAUSE I WAS REALLY BUSY WITH STUDIES AND MANY MORE STUFF, WHICH ALSO INCLUDES THE UNSTABLE EMOTIONS THAT I WAS FACING, IT HAS BROUGHT ME TO MY LOWEST ERA OF SELF ESTEEM UP TILL DATE, FELL DOWN TO THE CLIFF AND NEVER GETTING UP ANY SOONER…

It was day and night hectic for me, insomnia, emotionally unstable and mild depression for me because things did not really went as well as I thought. Emotionally depressed was the toughest thing that has passed through my life and eventually, I had to let things go by itself because it has overtaken control of my life, in which would really harm me badly if things continue to move on in the same manner.

Although there are some down cliffs within the past few weeks, but definitely there are some achievements within these few challenges, and that challenge would be the up cliff, in which I climbed. But really hope that I chose the right cliff to climb, to prevent from a harder fall in the future.

So, without further speeches, here are some pictures on my first research paper seminar presentation, which is also part of the preparation process within these few weeks, and also some picture of Anthony, the Taiwanese singer that I bumped into while I was hanging out with some friends. ^^

The Irreplaceable…

2011-03-14T00:58:00.000+08:00

THERE ARE SO MANY THINGS IN LIFE THAT COULD NOT BE REPLACED BY SOMETHING ELSE, WHEN IT IS MEANT TO BE THERE, IT SHOULD BE THERE… OR SHALL THE COLOUR OF THE RAINBOW DISAPPEAR FOREVER…

It has been almost a month since I’ve updated my blog post due to 2 reasons: I’ve kinda lost the instinct to write, and second, I was really busy with my studies. But just within these two weeks, there are so many happenings.

There are so many learning in life that has taught me that, once something is missing in your life, you’ll never find it back. Just like a missing puzzle. Even though you might be able to purchase or special made another piece of puzzle, but it just wouldn’t be the same anymore, it just wouldn’t be original. The colour, the contour and etc would be different, although the picture might be the same.

Appreciation and gratitude is always the most important thing in life that I’ve learned. Although it is hard to pay gratitude to somebody you’ve never did before, but it is always important to acknowledge somebody’s help towards you, because you will never know when you’ll lose this piece of puzzle.

Also, go for things that you wished for and never regret. Life is about choices, therefore, pick the choice that you love most that would bring you the biggest impact in your life and remember to never look back. Walk with it, feel it, love it and never let go, if not, your regrets would be deeper than ever.

Walk with a great a proud heart of yours, hold it up high and tight; be proud of what you do, and people would appreciate it. But remember on not to over exaggerate it. And remember, hold it as tight as you can, if not, once you lose it, it will never come back, sunk under the sea that nobody would know, except for you, alone, and that is where the puzzle is missing and the world turns incomplete…

The Waiting…

2011-02-23T00:38:00.000+08:00

HOW DOES IT FEEL TO GAIN FOR SOMETHING YOU DIDN’T SEE IT COMING? AND HOW WILL IT FEEL WHEN YOU COULD FORESEE THE FUTURE COMING TO YOU? ANXIOUS? HAPPY? NERVOUS? OR JUST BLANK? IT DEPENDS…

It was a few days ago that a bad sinus hit me on my nose, in which it has been here for years since I was diagnosed with sinus. It has turned real bad until I would need to undergo an operation, and I didn’t know how it felt when the doctor first told me that he would advice me to undergo an operation, as this would be my first operation after so many years, since I couldn’t remember when.

The blank mind just came to me, and out of a sudden, so many questions popped into my mind. Doctor told me that it would only be a minor surgery, but it would definitely be a big effect for me, starting all my life again by training my singing again? I’m so used to sing in my current condition. Just couldn’t believe that this would actually happen to me.

I just do not know what to do? Just make an appointment date and undergo a surgery or continue with my life through the intake of medicine. Minor surgery doesn’t mean it won’t affect, it does. Although it is might not be huge for others, but it would be huge for me if it would affect my singing. Therefore, it is a hard decision to hold. But humans do make choices in their life, and so, this would be the biggest choice of my life, the biggest choice that might change my life forever, and also the biggest choice that might bring my life a step forward forever.

Nothing Lasts ~ But If I Knew Then… things would be different...

2011-02-19T02:11:00.002+08:00

VALENTINES JUST PASSED BY THE CORNER, AND EVERYONE MIGHT HAVE THOUGHT THAT THEIR LOVE TOWARDS EACH OTHER MIGHT GET DEEPER EACH AND EVERY DAY SINCE THEY STARTED, AND EVENTUALLY WOULD LAST FOREVER, ETERNALLY. AND IF THAT WEREN’T TO BE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL THING ON EARTH, I JUST SIMPLY COULDN’T FIND ANYTHING TO REPLACE ITS BEAUTY. BUT THE FACT IS, NOTHING LASTS…

Lady Antebellum, 5 award winners for the 2011 Grammys had its collection of music in their album “Need You Now”, in which various songs have touched my heart, especially the song “If I Knew Then” towards the current situation that I am facing right now.

Probably I’ve found somebody that might be suitable for me to click into my life, but seems that the past life just wouldn’t let me go, which is also the reason why I am ditching the main source that scratches my painful heart, again and again.

“The first time that I saw you, looking like you did, we were young, we were restless, just two clueless kids”, and with naïve thoughts and never knew that things today might have happened, where both of us has walked different path, even though one of them would still like to have their way with the other. But, things had to go when it is under this situation, although it hurts, “but if I knew then, what I know now, I’d fall in love”…

Without turning back my head this time, although life might continue as usual, and we might pass by each other someday once again, and just a smile on the face to each other, shall the place be left with a small piece of incomplete memories once again, until it fades away; until it goes away and not even a single piece of puzzle to be found within our thought.

“Cause love only comes once in a while, and knocks on your door, and throws you a smile… and takes every breath, leaves every scar, speaks through your soul, and sings to your heart”, and shall all the greatest memories lies beneath the thoughts of the present and the future. Although it hurts to do so, “but if I knew then, what I know now, I’d fall in love”.

Everything only knocks on the door once in a lifetime. Once it is gone, it will be gone forever, and shall be turned into a dream never to be accomplished…

Voice of my life ~ with half of my heart…

2011-02-13T02:20:00.011+08:00

EVER WONDER HOW YOU WILL FEEL WHEN THERE IS SOMEBODY OUTSIDE WHO ARE TALKING ABOUT HOW YOU FELT ALL THIS WHILE, ESPECIALLY IN REGARDS TO RELATIONSHIP MATTERS. AMAZING HUH?

“Coincidence" or "Fated” was the word running around my head throughout the afternoon and night when I started browsing through a blog that has spoken out words from my heart. Although these words are made in general therefore everyone could felt it, but those words were deeply felt within my heart as if they were mine; as if they just happened; as if it was there.

I know that you might be going through some hard times now due to lots f unavoidable circumstances, and I know that I couldn’t be by your side due to a few uncontrolled factors which has totally ruined everything between you and me all these years.

But when I browsed through this blog and also on the agenda that has happened recently, that feeling was like dropping an atomic bomb to me; just like another harsh stab deep down to my heart, but I knew that I really have to face this matter myself by using all the guts I have to face this world.

This blog was written by an author named Mary Allison by the blog of “with half of my heart”. Within this blog, below are a few of the writings which had been a part of my life all these while:

“I absolutely hate not knowing what to say; I want to say so much, I just don’t know how to do it.”
(Allison, 2011)

Because it always felt so awkward to be with you as in there is a barrier between us that has always kept us apart from each other. It is always so hard to even talk to you because every word you talked about would make such a deep impression to me, and so do my speeches to you. Because of this, words used are always that careful as not to hurt you, but seems like this has turned into something that kept us apart, kept me from waiting, and kept you from leaving.

“It was because of the sensitivity that kept us apart
and not other factors which has been pointed all these years;
it was the heart, not the thoughts”

(Eu, 2011)

Allison continued with something I guessed would have happened, and I think has ended as well:

“I guess I never should have loved you, but I do forever ‘cause you loved me”

(Allison, 2011)

I knew that it was as if I started the whole thing that kept us from improving, but you were the person taking the steps of moving forward. I am not here to point fingers at you anymore, but to be honest with you. I knew that it was not your fault for me to fall in love with you, but if I had never met you, I wouldn’t have fall in love to such an incredible person in my life, which has really inspired me a lot, even until today, on how to live my life. But I never knew that things were going to go bad.

To be honest, I hated you when you first barge into my room all the time back in college. But you let me found out that the world beyond my room is much more interesting than staying back in my room; you brought me to the wonders of the world; and you never let me felt lonely before. And now I missed you barging into my room, and I've been hoping that you would do it everyday for the rest of my life because it felt so warmth to be with you. But now I know that turning back is not possible anymore, because things have gone way apart.

“Never let your thoughts go out of hand;
never hate someone in your life,
because karma does exist within this world”

(Eu, 2011)

“If great things in life were in your control, control it well,
and never let it go until you die,
or else,
you would regret it for your whole life.”
(Eu, 2011)

Reading this blog is like time traveling, telling me about my past; telling me about all the things I should’ve known back then to gain what I could have today; but things have gone forever, without any U turn or whatsoever.

“You were the one person I didn’t want to become a stranger in my life, and now it seems like as days go by, the more we become strangers to one another”
(Allison, 2011)

“You’ll forget me eventually like everyone else”
(Allison, 2011)

And it has already happened, as I have been forgotten all these while. But because I was stupid enough to try my effort back on you, I kept calling and although I feel it as if I am bugging you all the time, but I really do hope that things would get back as how it were. But this has happened long ago.

“Give freedom to love, as it needs to grasp some fresh air,

to be kept fresh all the time”

(Eu, 2011)

But I really hope that this would be the quote of the night from me to you:

“Did you know that when people appear in your dreams, it’s because that person wants to see you “
(Time Magazine, plotted from Cassandra’s blog – "Miles to go before I sleep")

But I’ve never ever dreamed of you, probably only once or twice, in which I was hoping and wished that I could just dreamed of you all the time, but perhaps not anymore. Because this will be the end of everything. Although it has felt like the safety, comfy, warmth feeling beside me has gone and it really doesn’t feel good because it gives me insomnia, but your life and my life have to live on. Although it is really hard for me to put down, but at least I know that I had some great time with you before, and all those will definitely be stored within this memory, hope to be dissolved someday.

Even though there are times where life were to be missed and people would regret, it would also be the time for me to thank you for everything that you've done for me and I'll never forget every single bit of you in my whole life, because this was the greatest thing that has ever happened in my youth life. Thank you.

WASEH!!! STILL WANT TO CELEBRATE AGAIN AR??!!! 3rd TIME NEW YEAR D WEH!!!

2011-02-11T02:32:00.007+08:00

IT WAS ONCE AGAIN, A NEW YEAR CELEBRATION FOR THE HOKKIEN PEOPLE, WHERE THE CELEBRATION FALLS ON THE 9TH DAY OF CHINESE NEW YEAR.

Fireworks once again seen covering the skies as another Chinese New Year celebration for the Hokkien people all around the world. For those who do not know what Hokkien people are, Hokkien are a clan of Chinese that speak in a Chinese dialect known as Hokkien. Every year, on the 9th day of Chinese New Year celebration, the Hokkien clan would prepare a special celebration this day as a day to offer prayers to the Jade Emperor of Heaven in the Taoist Pantheon.

According to the myth, the Jade Emperor of Heaven saved the Hokkien Clan during the Chaotic Period in the late part of the Chinese History. This had made the 9th day of Lunar Chinese New Year to be an important day for the Hokkien Clan. Also, according to the website referred, there are a list of items as long as 32 types of different dishes to be prepared for the way, in which I think would be quite unnecessary, as what is important would be the heart of gratitude rather than presenting the food and forget about the Jade Emperor after the food presentation. I think the Jade Emperor would have enough food every year because everyone is presenting him with lots of food. Therefore, always be grateful.

Even though it was only a myth told by the elders, but who knows that it might be the truth? What if Jade Emperor really didn’t come for the rescue? Perhaps, the Hokkien clan wouldn’t exist around this world anymore. Therefore, just be grateful that the Hokkiens are still living right now on earth, as this wouldn’t harm you a little bit by sharing some food of yours to the Emperor right? Sharing is caring. :)

Here are some pictures on what are the rituals done for this festive. Enjoy... ^^

To Love Somebody... to love somebody...

2011-02-10T02:11:00.003+08:00

HAVE YOU FELL IN LOVE AND NEVER BE LOVED BY THE PERSON YOU LOVED? I THINK THIS IS EXATLY HOW YOU FEEL.

Everyone has their own love story to tell, their own light that they thought they would have to shine their life forever, but never happened, either ended up with some other blubs or alone. And for that, if things doesn’t work out any better, it will never work out anymore, just like a blown off light bulb.

Looking from the person who is loved, but never knew or didn’t want to be loved because there is someone else that this person is loving, is always unfair, as all the time, all the tricks that you’ve used to love him, all ended up with somebody else, but not you.

It is always an unfair world, where people choose things that they want, and couldn’t appreciate and accepting that they have, because it is always the nature of human. But most of the time, it never works no matter how hard you have tried, because this is a cruel world, and never meant to work out your way. But because of the word “feeling” or “love”, people are turned blind, wouldn’t give up until the end, even though the results are obvious that this person would not want to be yours anymore.

“To love somebody, to love somebody, the way I loved you” is the part that it hurts the most. Although it hurts, and it is not true to bless other people’s happiness and remain the suffering ourselves, but seems like that is the only way out, as time never turns back. If you didn’t grab what were yours in the past, it never will be yours again, never. Therefore, the only choice is to live with it, although it hurts, but remember, there is never a turning back… because this is the cruelty of life.

"The only choice in life is to walk straight till the end"

Time of Your Life ~~ Greenday

2011-02-10T01:52:00.001+08:00

IT’S SOMETHING UNPREDICTABLE, BUT IN THE END IT’S RIGHT...AND THAT WILL BE THE TIME OF YOUR LIFE…

Everyone had the time of their life in different levels of life, from childhood to adulthood, where every different sections of life would bring great memories, regardless of whether it is a memory to be remembered or not, but still, it would live forever with us.

The time of our life is happens unconsciously, without knowing on how hard we worked for it or did it just came spontaneously, great time would never stop it’s job by bringing more life to each of our life every day, every minute, every second, and every breath of our life.

Therefore, appreciate everything that is in your hands before it runs away, discard things that you think it is not important in your life at all and go ahead, run towards the greatness of life and never look back, because time would never stop or reverse.

Just like this time of my life, great people are met in life, some stayed and some left, but things come and go, therefore, just keep going forward, as the time of your life would get better every step you take to the front, just like the time I spent with my band mates, as all of these will only be a memory someday, that would only leave it’s trace in this world. Therefore, enjoy this cover by me and Suresh (guitarist), Time of My Life by Greenday. ^^

Shedding Tears…

2011-02-09T02:31:00.001+08:00

RELATIONSHIP IS LIKE AN ITENARY MADE BY GLASS SOLD IN DECORATION SHOPS, ONCE BROKEN CONSIDER SOLD, AS THERE IS NO TURNING BACK…

Tears falling down from the cheeks, making another night of mine a night to recall again things that should not be recalled, as this feeling wants me to go back to the life I was supposed to have, supposed to grabbed on, and supposed to live with; but dreams are shattered now.

These thoughts that made me awake all night long, keeping me awake from sleep, separating me away from my dreams, making me happy for an instant, but flashing back once again; dreams are shattered again.

Hairs that are growing longer which might turn white someday, and skins that was once smooth might be full with wrinkles the next day, are days that are coming forth to my life, and once again, hoping that everything would happen together with you; but once again, dreams are shattered.

I know that things can never turn back because things shall go forward the way it should be as this is also the nature of time, on never turning backwards. But I really do not know on whether I should be going forward or staying behind waiting for another chance to be together.

Life is just so hard, but please… grab me or leave me. I know that all these while, it was my problem and I didn’t want to solve it. But it is just so hard as things are getting really tense and different around you, and not me. I chose to let go before, but never knew that it was just so hard, as the wheel of fortune turns me back.

Just tell me what to do… please…

Another New Year??!!! I Thought We Just Celebrated A New Year A Month Ago??

2011-02-06T21:22:00.016+08:00

AND YES, IT IS ANOTHER CHINESE NEW YEAR CELEBRATED IN 2011, AND THIS YEAR, BETTER THINGS HAPPENED, TREMENDOUS THINGS OCCUR AND HOPING THAT IT WOULD BE ANOTHER AWESOME YEAR AHEAD FOR ALL CHINESE. ^^

Chinese New Year, another year waited by every Chinese all around the world to meet up with family members and also for the young ones to be happy about getting a little bit more money inserted into a red packet to be given out as a blessing from the adults for a better and prosperous year ahead.

Therefore, every year, our relatives from all over the world would travel back to a place known as Padang Serai located in Kedah, just to celebrate this Chinese New Year together with family members. This is the miracle part of it because relatives don’t really meet up together during normal days because everyone is so busy with their own life that family relations have been abandoned throughout the year, therefore, this would be the time for everyone to get together. Although it was a long journey back home, but the atmosphere was hyped up as everyone was having fun during this festive season.

Our young little model: Damiah...

... and of course not to forget our baby model: Dahlia...

(seems like she grew up a lot... haha...)

... and looks like somebody is getting naughty...

... not to forget their sleepy brother...

together with another new born, Ji Yan

... With her Sister, Genie, this new year...

... which has brought more lights to this festive...

... which would then lead to some happiness ^^...

... ok... perhaps I'm wrong about this... haha...

... And of course not to forget the tradition of this festive...

... And also some prayers for safety throughout the year...

... and not to forget to save the environment at the same time by not polluting them...

... and of course, flashing back some old memories within some historical buildings...

... Of course not to forget the fun part of every Chinese New Year,

Lion Dance Performances...

... which has taken up sweats and bloods just as an entertainment for others...

... and also some family time spent together during this festive...

*this is really not what I meant by playing iPad*

... Of course, tossing some luck and prosperous for a New Year...

... celebrated with a little bit of red wine...

... adding on with a little Japanese flavour this year...

... together with some fusion ice cream...

... and also some movies and television together...

(Jeslyn Tai: Fashion Blogger... Click here to view)

... And of course, some family pictures together... ^^

(Gramps... ya'll are lucky to have so many grandchildren...)

... and of course, it would be time to explore the nearby areas...

... with Dahlia shopping around a 24 hour Kiosk...

... would definitely be one of the best Chinese New Year I've ever had up till today...

Wishing Everyone Happy Chinese New Year

Good Luck and Have a Prosperous Year Ahead... ^^

Behind the scene

Ok... perhaps it wasn't all fun at all during this Chinese New Year because it was long enough... therefore, this is an example of a scene when you and your cousin are not doing anything... Facebook... -.-" and this was what happened... LOLZ!!!

The Worn Out Magnets...

2011-02-02T02:48:00.001+08:00

MAGNET DOES NOT STICK TOGETHER FOREVER, UNLESS A KNOT IS TIED BETWEEN THEM. IF NOT, SOONER OR LATER, BOTH SIDES WILL JUST FALL APART FROM EACH OTHER...

It was supposed to be a night when I should be sleeping early, but it seems like this early is as early as 2.37am and I am still fully awake, thinking about another year of Valentines alone without any partners. But who cares about having partners during Valentines only, because it has been really long since I had this relationship.

It was a relationship that has not started and did not officially ended because there wasn’t such need as this was always a one sided thought by only an individual all these while. It was a tough life hoping that both sides would have come together as a magnet, in which both of us did come together as a magnet. But due to some circumstances, this magnet has started to worn out.

It was still here a few months ago, a few weeks ago, after years and years of maintaining this magnetic field between each other, even though both of us are far apart. But seems like this magnetic field is getting really weak recently because there isn’t any maintenance for it, there isn’t any effort for it, and furthermore, there isn’t any hope for it. Not that this relationship doesn’t work out, it is just that it just can’t work out any longer, due to environment pressure.

Shall this relationship be hands off or hands on, I think time will decide, but seems like time has already hinted that this will no longer work anymore. Time will not be blamed and it was not the factor causing things to happen, but humans are always the trouble maker for making things tougher for each other, hoping that things would get worst for others and better for themselves.

But things shall commence as normal, as we’ll see on how it goes, or perhaps, how it will be passing us by in the future.

Welcome to the World of ADULTS~~

2011-02-02T00:34:00.006+08:00

AS EVERYONE I CAN TELL FROM THE PEOPLE AROUND ME, WHEN ADULTS GET OLDER, THEY ARE GETTING NASTIER. PERHAPS THIS IS A STEREOTYPE, BUT WHY DOES IT ONLY HAPPEN WHEN PEOPLE GROW UP TO BE ADULTS AND NOT WHEN THEY’RE YOUNG? AND IS REPUTATION AND MONEY SO MUCH MORE IMPORTANT THAN ANYTHING ELSE IN THIS WORLD? IT IS TIME TO WAKE UP HAGS…

Perhaps I might be rude to say that “old hags, you people are getting too over, it is time to sit down and talk it over, because this is just so childish to fight over some stuff that could not solve any problems.” But please bare with me that these old hags are just people that is not easy to talk through, and when I mean old hags, I really mean those adults which are in their mid adulthood. Don’t tell me that you people do not have someone you hated and hated them all your life just because of some small stuff that he or she doesn’t want to give it up to you just because you think that it is right all the time and that your reputation is much more important than anything else in this world?

Now let me tell ya’ll something. You people are acting way kiddier than kids. I just don’t know what word I can put it into this context anymore, because it is way beyond naïve. Every day, adults are telling those who are stepping into the adulthood to be careful because the adulthood is full with dangerous people, therefore, always be street smart and not book smart. BUT, the problem here is not with the adulthood itself, but the mentality of these adults making adulthood sounds so spooky for any youth to step in. The problem occurs from adults as they think that they are so mighty that nobody in this world could ruin their reputation because reputation exceeds everything in this world.

Look at some of the parents that could sacrifice for their children and not take their reputation and money into consideration; look at some adults that could just chase for their dreams and lose all their reputation and prove that the importance of reputation is nonetheless something worthless to care more; look at some people who could just think that their dreams are much more important than some other worthless things around them.

So, adults, please stop wasting your time and step into this life tragic moment of ruining your life, your reputation and also your energy to fight over something that is not worth fighting. I know that human needs to stand for their rights, but for some moment, we should just sit down and come up with a compromised results rather than pointing fingers at others; and even when others point fingers at you, please do not point it back at them, because the rest of the four fingers are still pointing back at you, as it would only make things worst in this case. Therefore, always come up with a compromise solution.

“Never Fear to Talk, As Fear is only a Thought”

-Eu-

Adults have always say, “Follow your ‘whosoever’s’ footstep” and the world would not change if we would follow their negative footsteps all the time! Therefore, in order to be a role model, show that you deserve to be a role model before saying it. Don’t just brag about it and not do anything because things would only get worst. And if you adults want to gain respect, respect each other and everyone around first before expecting a respect from us youngsters.

P.S. To every Chinese in this world, Happy Chinese New Year, Gong Xi Fa Cai and shall all the prosperous comes to you within the year of Rabbit. ^^

Falling Stars...

2011-02-01T02:47:00.003+08:00

IT WAS DAYS OF HIGH UNCERTAINTY FOR ME ON WHAT MY LIFE SHOULD BE, BUT THINGS NEEDS TO MOVE ON, EVEN THOUGH PLANS AND DREAMS HAVE TO BE CRUSHED AT TIMES.

It was a few days and nights that weren’t really pleasant for me, in which troubles kept coming into my mind in which I really didn’t know how to solve it at first, but mainly would be with some family problems, in which every year it occurs during this coming festive season of Chinese New Year. But for me this year, it wasn’t a really great year because even though the year had just started, I’ve already break a promise.

I promised to both of my bros that we all will be able to make it to Singapore as their birthday trip, but seems like things needs to be postpone until further notice. It was really hard because I can definitely see the passion within them that they really wanted to go so badly, and to celebrate their birthday with me so badly that I wouldn’t want to turn them down. I’ve promised them not once, but several times before making the right decision through my surroundings.

Few problems occur when I first came back home right here, which would be my family’s financial which is already under burden during this coming festive, even though this festive was supposed to bring happiness and joy to everyone, but seems like it is burdening everyone comparing to normal days. After peeping all these out when I was looking at my parents talking about the family’s financial somewhere, I rejected the trip to Singapore. It was a tough decision, but I know that it was my decision to do that; and I know that it would be hard for my bros, that is why I am really sorry about all the happenings. I know that both of you, perhaps not angry, but really disappointed, or perhaps both, I don’t know, but you guys really have the rights to do so, because the problem occurs from me, and I really don’t want both of you to carry the burden for me, because both of you always do so.

I am really sorry for what happened, because I know it was a really bad decision for me to cancel it off when things are just warming up. But I know that sorry won't cure anything. Therefore, I promise that this would only be a postpone, and we’re still going to Singapore, perhaps not this soon, but maybe after things can settle down a little bit. Even though I know that things cannot be as simple as a writing or just another word of mouth because scars has been done, but I really hope that things would not complicate itself anymore. And I’m sorry about everything that has happened. Sorry.

Back to the Future??

2011-02-01T02:20:00.003+08:00

HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED ON HOW THE PAST COULD EVER EVOLVE AND CHANGE TO BECOME ON WHAT IT IS NOW? BEAUTIFUL BUILDINGS; ELEGANT AND SEXY DRESSES; AND TRENDY MUSIC WOULD ALSO BE ONE OF IT. THEREFORE, THESE PEOPLE SHOULD BE MUCH APPRECIATED AS THE FOUNDER OR THE FOUNDATION THAT BUILT THIS ERA OF GREATNESS.

It was cleaning up day and guess what, cleaning up is no fun as usual because I would be sneezing my nose away from morning till night, all thanks to the dust everywhere. But still, there is always something fun about cleaning up, and unpacking every year, because every single year, something old will be discovered again, and even the coins you lost like a million years ago and cried over it before might be found today.

But for all of those, it was not as epic as what I’ve seen with my own eyes within the cupboard that was not opened for years. I opened it up and it was full and packed with compact disc. Some are still new, but some, I would say, legendary, back from the 80s and 90s, where international superstars might only be a kiddo back then. And for this collection, I would say that these are the people that has brought the music industry to what it is now, hip and funky. Of course, without them, the industry might never appear until today, therefore, with my gratitude to them, these CDs stays on, as their music and legend moves on.

Preparing for Another New Year? I thought we just had our 2011 New Year Passed?

2011-01-27T00:53:00.004+08:00

IF YOU PEEPS OUT THERE DO NOT KNOW WHAT WE ARE PREPARING FOR, IT IS ACTUALLY ANOTHER YEAR OF CHINESE NEW YEAR, IN OTHER WORDS, A NEW YEAR CELEBRATED BY THE CHINESE COMMUNITY AROUND THE WORLD STARTING THIS COMING 4 FEB 2011. SO, DON’T HESITATE TO COME AND JOIN US WITH ALL THE FUN AND EXCITEMENT THAT YOU MIGHT NOT WANT TO MISS OUT. ^^

It is another year that every Chinese kid in this world has been waiting, which would be the Chinese New Year, where houses, clothes from head to toe and even the hair would be dye in red colour. Nothing much on the colour, but it is to say that the colour Red would bring prosperity and luck to the individual and the family. So, no harm trying out, as the colour is also suitable for wearing anytime on the streets.

Therefore, for this year, I’ve bought a pair of red colour socks together with a red colour Polo-T in which I will be wearing both together during the new year. Like I say, no harm trying out some myth during this coming new year, as long as everyone have fun as families and relatives gather around, right? ^^

And here are some preparation photos from me, which includes a new hairstyle preparing for the year of rabbit in 2011. ^^

A little late for Winter Solstice in which I totally missed out,

but better be late than never...

... and a little bit of singing to build up some hype for the festive...

... of course, not to forget, hunting for new clothes during this Chinese New Year...

... was walking around the mall all day long without any idea on what to buy...

... and so there they go, emo...

but food cured everything... ^^

Also, for a new year, it would definitely be a new hairstyle

(can't believe my mom just can't accept this hairstyle...)

Also, some Ang Ang (pronounced in Hokkien as Red) around the hair saloon call Red

And there we go, preparing for another New Year.

Wishing every Chinese around the globe to celebrate a prosperous New Year,

and be safe always. ^^

P.S. if ya'll are in the mood, I really don't mind receiving a few more Ang Pau (or also known as Red Packets with cash) through mail. :P ..... just pulling your legs... ^^

The Right Thing To Do?

2011-01-26T02:27:00.005+08:00

IT WAS A TOUGH NIGHT FOR ME EVEN THOUGH I JUST STEPPED BACK TO MY OWN HOUSE WHERE I FIND MYSELF NAGGED AND QUARREL WITH MY PARENTS FOR SOME BUSINESSES. IT IS AS THOUGH THEY ARE SPEAKING ILLOGICALLY, IN WHICH IN MY OPINION THEY ARE, BUT STILL, WAS CALMED DOWN BY SOME WISE WORDS…

It was rough, just as if I stepped on a road of massage stones on the floor throughout the night within the house. The heat was high in the house as quarreling continues between me and my parents, as there are some disagreement even towards the smallest things on earth.

Things that was quarreled:

1) Old Hairstyle for a New Year??

Reason: My new hairstyle was disliked by my parents as they would think that I would be the topic for Chinese New Year, in which I really don’t mind, and they think I should stand more on my opinion on the hairstyle I wanted, and not the hairstylists’ opinion. (FYI: I don’t know what are the latest trend or style that looks suitable on my head because I am not one fashionable person! And since they are the professional in the industry, why not let them do it?)

2) Living the Ordinary Rather Than the Extraordinary
Reason: Living the extraordinary will be bullied. Adding on, she said that I would just finish my studies and get a job for my whole freaking life, earning money by working with other people. (HELLO!!! I’m so not going to have that as my life. I’m going to get my company or whatsoever in the future, and so not working for people. I only work for myself or for music. That’s the bottom line. And if I were to live the ordinary, I wouldn’t even dare to dream BIG, and without that word BIG, I wouldn’t even achieve something more in my life, just like the other person in my family!! UNDERSTAND ME!!! THAT IS WHY I NEED TO HAVE THE GUTS TO CHANGE AND THE GUTS TO LIVE THE EXTRAORDINARY!!!!)

3) Money = Happiness??
Reason: No Money = No Happiness. (HELLO AGAIN!!!! I THOUGHT YOU JUST ASKED ME TO LIVE THE ORDINARY!!! MANA NAK CARI DUIT DENGAN ORDINARY LIVING!!!! EXCUSE ME!!!!! KNOCK KNOCK!!!! BE LOGICAL A LITTLE BIT!!!!! And by the way, who told you that without money, we can’t live in happiness? And you said that the happiness is just a short term happiness… excuse me? I don’t see things short term… and I already have my planning for my future. Although you are my mom, but you have no rights to control my future… at all!!)

I mean, this is the platform for me to voice out myself because I want all moms that read this post to know… GO READ “THE LAST LECTURE” (it is a book by the way)… it teaches you on how to be a real educating parent that doesn’t only achieve for the sake of living. If this is the life, then what is the point of living at the first place? I have my own point of view of how I should run my life. But please, stop telling me on how I should live my life, because you’re only running my own cause for me to live. And by the way, ya’ll are the ones acting illogically all these moment, and you aspect me to live illogically just like ya’ll, and look at what happened to the person ya’ll raised who followed ya’ll illogically, and I don’t have to tell who would that be, but definitely not me.

And please, stop it with your friend's words. All you ever tell me nowadays are about your friends only. Since when on earth did you even listen to me speaking. You would need me yelling and nagging you around only would you be listening to my words, and then you will be showing me that pity face and I should not even start nagging at you at a point and proving that your friends are wrong. I know it is a hard time for you, but it would be a harder time for the family in the future.

But words from my really wise Indian brother, Vijay, came to me after I told him on what happened back then, and this is what he said to calm me down. “Just stand with it, because those days are coming when you’ll prove them wrong. So, just be calm for now and be patience… and by looking at those childhood pictures, my parents were so young back then… and how many years do they have left to nag and control you? Remember those times back then when we were happy as a kid? When our parents were so poor that they had to feed us with luxurious food? So why not just let them be… because nothing is better than being a family…” and eventually, those words really came back flashing lots of memories behind on what has happened.

My tears almost fall from my eyes, and even though it was sort of a long lecture from Vijay, but it was a great lecture. It wasn’t just reminding me things that I should’ve known long time ago, but also telling me the fact that I should be somebody who could also love somebody else rather than be loved all this while.

But please once again parent, stop with the controlling. All of you can do whatever you want and control on how I look and all those I don’t care, but please, don’t control your children’s life, and please stop being so self centered all this time, as this will hurt your own cause and also your children’s cause of what could be in the future.

Even though Vijay has taught me that I should be patient, in which I would… and although I have a total confidence to prove my parents wrong, but everything still has its limits. So, don’t ever push it too far, because this usually happens in Asian countries, especially amongst the Chinese families. That is why, just let them be, freely, rather than locking them in all the time, because the future will be way tougher than the past, and things will change. So, always pick the right choice in life people, as the future doesn’t belong to your parents or anyone else, but it belongs to you.

I WANNA MARRY YYYYOOOOOOUUUUUUU!!!!

2011-01-24T01:29:00.003+08:00

IT WAS ANOTHER ENJOYABLE NIGHT WITH MY GUITARISTS AKA MY INDIAN BROTHER, VIJAY IN MY HOUSE FOR THE LAST TIME, KINDA SAD RIGHT? BUT THIS IS THE FACT THAT PEOPLE HAVE TO MOVE ON… AND INDEED, I’VE “MARRIED” TO THESE PEOPLE AND MUSIC…

It was a beautiful night again with my brother, Vijay, holding up his guitar and doing some randomness in front of my camera, and once again it was another wonderful night before I move back officially to my house, in which I would definitely miss this place full with great memories, regardless of whether it is good or bad, but still, great memories retained.

And I suppose that this would be the last video that I will be having in my room here in Setapak, as I have packed all my stuff and ready to move out before we actually took this video. Although it was quite random, but hope that you peeps really liked it.

Once again, thank you to Vijay for coming over to my place, helping me out with some stuff, spent me a great meal and taking this video together with me, although he is sick. Look at how great this brother could be. Thank You… I Love You!!! And I’m already “married” to your family… haha… and “married” here means that you’re already my brother for life… no running away from me anymore… wakakakaka…

And here is the video, “Marry You” by Bruno Mars, covered by Eu and Vijay. Enjoy… ^^

Wonders in Life...

2011-01-19T23:59:00.005+08:00

HOW TO SMILE WHEN YOU’RE SO STRESSED? THERE ARE A FEW WAYS, BUT THIS IS THE ONLY WAY THAT IS MIRACLE ENOUGH.

It was another night full of stress because due to some last minute confirmation with everything. Because things has turned so complicated until I could not enjoy my semester break, and have to sit right in front of the computer, typing without stopping my hand and brains. And once again, I can smell the smoke coming from within my body, biting off my teeth so hard again, and once again, do things that should not be done. It was a really tough time.

But there are things that could really make your day up, just like how my life changed since I met this ridiculous friend, Vijay, also my band mate. He is such a disgusting guy that could really pull into my nerves, which would divert me off from my work. Just within minutes, he could just make me smile once again without fail. I guess this is how miracle a human relationship could get when humans treat each other by using their heart, and not their brain.

"Complication shall be reduced

through the thoughts from the heart"

Thank you so much bro for making my day and night once again. Really don’t know how to thank you, perhaps, another Starbucks? Haha.. Good night and sweet dreams. ^^

The Unknown Festival ~ Thai Pongal

2011-01-17T07:57:00.003+08:00

IT WAS ONLY TWO DAYS AGO THAT THERE IS A CELEBRATION NOT REALLY KNOWN BY ANY MALAYSIANS, PROBABLY BECAUSE IT WASN’T REALLY CELEBRATED IN MALAYSIA, IT DID NOT GRAB MUCH ATTENTION OF OTHERS, OR PROBABLY BECAUSE IT DOES NOT HAVE ANY HOLIDAYS, THEREFORE, THERE AREN’T ANY CELEBRATION… BUT IT IS STILL OUR RESPONSIBILITY TO KNOW AND TO RESPECT THE OTHER RACES.

Thai Pongal was what happened two days ago, celebrated all over Malaysia, that not many races and not many people even knew about the celebration, as it wasn’t celebrated largely in the country itself, despite knowing as a multiracial country. But regardless what happens, it is still our responsibility to know and to find out on what the Thai Pongal is all about. By the way, the word “Thai” doesn’t reflect Thailand, instead it reflects something else.

According to Wikipedia, Thai Pongal (Tamil: தைப்பொங்கல்) is a harvest festival celebrated by Tamils in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu, Indian Union Territory of Puducherry and in Sri Lanka. Pongal coincides with the festival Makara Sankranthi celebrated throughout India. Pongal in Tamil means “boiling over” or “spill over”. The boiling over of milk in the clay pot symbolizes material abundance for the household. Thai Pongal, celebrated at harvest time, is traditionally intended to thank the Sun God and farmstead livestock that helped created the material abundance.

In addition, the saying “Thai Pirandhal Vazhi Pirakkum” (தை பிறந்தால் வழி பிறக்கும்) means “the commencement of Thai paves the way for new opportunities” is often quoted regarding the Pongal festival. The festival usually occurs from January 13 – 15 in the Gregorian calendar (in layman’s term: our normal calendar la), which is the last day of the Tamil month Maargazhi to the third day of Thai.

Moreover, Pongal is traditionally dedicated to the Sun God Surya. Tamils thank the solar deity for the good harvest and consecrate the first grain to him on this ‘Surya Mangalya’. The holiday denotes the starts of the Tamil month of Thai (தை) as it marks the day when the Sun purportedly shifts northwards to signify the commencement of Uttarayana, which represents the northward journey of Sun. The day gets longer in the Tamil lands. Thai Pongal falls on Makara Sankranthi celebrated throughout India as the winter harvest. This also represents the Indic solstice when the sun purportedly enters the 10th house of the Indian zodiac, e.g. Makara or Capricorn.

Perhaps all of these information, you might not understand thoroughly on what is happening, but at least it would be able to provide you a little guideline on what is actually happening during this festival. Therefore, although it is simply not another holiday for the nation, but at least greet the Indians in the country as it makes them feel like a part of us. We are a nation, remember?

NOTHING FEES BETTER THAN STAYING AT HOME TOGETHER WITH OUR FAMILY MEMBERS AND ALSO THE ENVIRONMENT AT HOME. ALTHOUGH MOST OF US WOULD HAVE THOUGHT THAT FREEDOM WILL BE REDUCED, BUT AT LEAST IT MAKES YOU A BETTER BOY OR GIRL RIGHT??

It has been a few days since I got home from my hostel and this time, will be a permanent move, and no longer moving back to my hostel. Up till today, there still aren’t any signs of insomnia yet, I mean like I haven’t been getting insomnia since exam finished. But still life still has to move on, as things are approaching soon. Therefore, there is a need for things to be improved. But still, it is a beautiful Sunday morning here, and yes, I’m going to pamper myself to the max as things shall be tough starting tomorrow, because life never stops. ^^

That is What I Think About YOU!!

2011-01-15T13:09:00.007+08:00

You’re Bad
As a beginning of this whole thing, I would like to do some introduction about what I will be speaking here. I mean like, there are so many complaints about what happened to me yesterday while I was walking around the city itself, and so called one of the most favorable city in the world, which is totally bullshit. First class facilities were way before at Mahathir’s era, and never in this era because there aren’t any high quality maintenance to do everything. That is why I will be complaining bits by bits on what actually happened yesterday. ..

First thing that is bad, long queue during peak hours while purchasing train tickets at the Monorail station at Times Square station. This is totally ridiculous, when I had to line up a long queue for half an hour just to purchase a train ticket. The best part is that they only opened one counter for ticket purchasing, and what happened to the rest of the employees? Everyone went out for dinner. All at one shot. I mean like you should not be doing that during peak hours, asking customers to wait for line, and it was raining heavily at that moment. True that we are not directly soaked by the rain, but the roof is leaking, and it is leaking right straight into the lights on the ceiling. Isn’t that really dangerous. What happens if it short circuit and the people would just get shocked and die.

Second thing was bad was on the Monorail itself. Water leaking off from the air conditioning and it hit a foreigner, and I doubt that they are here to travel. I didn’t mean like a drip or two, but a whole bunch of it. Isn’t it embarrassing to see these kind of things happened within the Monorail itself? Shouldn’t they at least have their train maintained so that things like these could be avoided? I mean, as a Malaysian, I’m really ashamed to even looked at them after that.

Third thing that is bad, attitudes of customer service officers located at KL Sentral information counter, right in front of KTM counter. And I am definitely sure that it was a night shift officer, where he was alone, clicking on the computer while I was asking for information. Let say if he did not smile towards me or greet me, it is fine with me, as long as there is at least a minimum morale on him. There isn’t any morale at all, I was talking to him and guess what, he stared at his computer all the time, and he just showed me the direction. And even when he mentioned, “go straight and turn right…” I was like, ok. I’ve got my information and there I go, ignoring that guy. And guess what, it walked straight up the stairs and turned right, while my destination was on the left hand side. Isn’t it ridiculous that he didn’t even know which direction to direct? This is the most ridiculous things I’ve ever met in my life. Such a disgrace towards Malaysia.

The fourth thing that is bad, the KTM announcer during the train’s arrival. This is what was mentioned yesterday… “Train to Pelabuhan Klang will be arriving at 8.06pm… yeah… Thank You.” I mean like, what is with the “yeah”? aren’t you even sure that the train was arriving. I was laughing all my way back. Come on, at least get a script or something, so that you guys won’t be messing it up.

You’re Good

Ok, I admit that things have to balanced up a little bit, where maybe not all the services provided is that bad. Because I’ve also been to other places such as Starbucks Wangsa Maju, where they provide good services, as I would really compliment on that. At first, the so called Starbucks planner was off the shelves as they stopped producing even though the expiry date was not up yet, therefore, they’re out of stock. But they took my contact details and searched for the planner for me, even though I don’t really need that planner. But since they’re offering, so why not. Hours later, they found a planner and even kept it for me, even for days, where I’ll only be redeeming it on Tuesday. Although it is a little late, I apologize for that, but I could not make it back to Wangsa Maju on time.

But I mean like, look at the services, they’re smiling at you all the time, speaking so nicely to you all the time, and I didn’t only mean the Starbucks in Wangsa Maju, Starbucks elsewhere such as Pavilion, KLCC and some other places, they are like the most friendly human beings on earth. You can just hook into them just within seconds rather than feeling spacious. They are all so well trained and so good in manner and I think these are the services that Malaysia needs to provide and not just sit there ignoring people or going off to dinner during busy hours.

The second thing that somebody is good would be from AirAsia located at KL Sentral. I went to the information counter for some inquiry, and they could just answer me without any hesitation. They’re so polite together with a very warm voice, although what they missed was the welcoming greetings, but still, at least they smiled and I was very pleased with that.

If there are people that could be so well trained in customer servicing, why not the others? As this is in regards of the reputation of the country as how we service our customers and clients. If they aren’t fit to work as customer service officer, shouldn’t they be placed somewhere else where nobody would even see them? This would only ruin the profession as the name of this profession in Malaysia is already not that pleased. Therefore, please do take actions as these things are in fact, a very important manner.

You’re selling services yet you’re not providing good services. So how could you even fit to call yourself a servicing company? It is ridiculous right? Therefore, please, show some professionalism within the industry, and not just a mouth full of words spinning on and on, and without any improvements at all.

SUDDEN ATTACK!!!

2011-01-11T10:14:00.009+08:00

EVERYONE HAS THEIR OWN FEAR, BUT HAVE YOU EVER TRIED TO GET A SUDDEN FEAR WHICH COULD HAPPEN TO YOU SUDDENLY? IT HAPPENED TO ME JUST THIS BEAUTIFUL MORNING.

It wasn’t a really pleasant morning after the sudden shock on what happened to my examined paper yesterday. It was way crazier than anything that I could have thought, in which has really increased the level of uncertainty within me to continue with my studies, and yes, eventually it has brought down my self esteem, crashed and buried until it could not be found today.

Flying down to Liverpool for my summer studies is just a step away, but seems like it will be crashed in no time due to yesterday’s paper. I have been studying do hard (and I bet everyone did) that even I did not go to sleep for approximately 24 freaking hours and that paper itself is less to an implementation paper but more to the general knowledge paper, so what is the point of eve studying so hard, and also, due to the level of stress and anxiety towards that paper itself, it has exhausted me throughout the whole night, and for the first time In my whole 18 years of studying life, I’m exhausted at my first examined paper in which I would still need to continue with my studies after that.

BUT SOMETHING SHOCKING HAPPENED THIS MORNING!!!

I woke up from bed and wanted to get some studies and be prepared for the next exam, but it doesn’t seems like the anxiety level is high, but the phobia, the fear of studying within me has actually occurred, and once again, in my freaking 18 years of life. I am a person who loves to study, but the fear has caught me this morning that I even have to force myself to think differently just to hold a pen.

According to Wikipedia, this is known as Ergasiophobia / Ergophobia, in which is it the fear of work or functioning. This is where suffers of Ergophobia experience undue anxiety about the workplace environment even though they realize their fear is irrational. This fear may be a combination of fears, such fear of failing at assigned tasks, fear of speaking before groups at work (both of which are types of performance anxiety), or fear of socializing with co-workers (a type of social phobia).

Of course, people with Ergosiophobia could find treatment (but in my case, I think mine is still a mild scenario, therefore, it doesn’t need much of a treatment) through behavioral therapy, anti anxiety medication, psychotherapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), behavioral therapy, exposure therapy, relaxation techniques – controlled breathing (recommended), and medication (not recommended, because medications to treat anxiety may be utilized for treatment of symptoms, but there are no studies that support the efficacy of medication in the treatment of specific phobias. These sources are retrieved from wrongdiagnosis.com.

You might be curious on why did I use Ergasiophobia and not some other phobias that would relate to the fear of studying. It is because they do not have that particular phobia for people who fears in their studies, therefore, this would be similar, and at the same time, study is also a job, as it is a task of the students to finish up their assignment and pass their examination in order to get out of the colleges they hated so much.

Perhaps, the stress level was too high as I was not able to sleep for many nights just because of one paper. Therefore, would need to free myself off from these stress for a little while after finals.

But still, life still goes on, therefore no matter how high the mountain is, I’m still continuing my journey to conquer this mountain, even though I fell from the mountain hard enough yesterday, but giving up is never the answer. Go for it, as life is all about dealing with challenges and obstacles.

Bruno Mars ~ What Happens Next??

2011-01-08T04:18:00.007+08:00

errrrrrr....

EVER WONDER ON WHY SOME ARTISTE COULD BE SO SUCCESSFUL AND SOME NOT. PERHAPS THERE IS SOMETHING BEHIND EVERYTHING THAT TELLS ON HOW GOOD HE COULD BE TO STAY IN THIS INDUSTRY.

Bruno Mars, an artiste idolized by many people, with many great songs written and recorded within a an album itself, in which has caught my attention at first with his songs, and definitely that attention is still on until today. But I think Bruno Mars has a great future planning on about his own life.

He started off thinking far enough by talking about his love life on how to even tackle a girl with the song “Just The Way You Are” by telling the girl on how good and attractive she looks that even Bruno wants to “eat” her up. But it was a great song that has turned into a hit upon release.

He also went of starting to think about what happens if he breaks up, and want to get the girl back by telling her how important she is and how far he can go just to get her back. Nonetheless, it is the song “Grenade”.

Ever wonder on how creative Bruno Mar's mind is, as his songs are all linked together within an album itself. Not like just any ordinary artiste that have songs individually, which might not even match the whole theme of the album. This is how good and how far Bruno has thought for his album.

Look at the thoughts of Bruno while writing these songs. This album consists of so many things, the pros and cons, the causes and solution, together with an action to take even when problems arises, the proper actions to take, step by step to get a girl and make that girl his, and there are so many variables and alternative that he could thought and he knew that it might happen, therefore, he gave all the choices within this album.

But I guessed he looked far enough, maybe even with a proper detailed planning on how he brought out “marry you” to his album and to his marriage. By looking at how he is going to propose, I would think that he is expecting a great marriage together with his future fiancé, and I bet everyone would want that. Not to know on whom she is yet, but we’ll be waiting for this song to go up during the wedding.

So, here is the question. "What happens next?" Live happily ever after? Nah… I think Bruno needs to come up with more ideas and thoughts on what might happen after marriage and not just to end with a happy marriage, just like a fairytale. But everyone knows that living happily ever after is not true, especially when you’re married. Perhaps, this might be one of the things that we will be waiting from his next album.

True that ya'll might think that this post is another "something" about Bruno Mars. But people, look on the other side. These public figures don't just popped up just because they want to. They don't just appear just because so suddenly they have to, but they appear for a reason, which is to guide and teach us.

Bruno might not only be teaching us a love life from another point of view, but if the whole album is looked in overall, it is actually teaching us to look further to a life, set a goal and achieve it rather than just blindly banging your heads around looking for a path anywhere. Therefore people, learn from these people as there are so many sweats, hearts and thoughts that lies beneath these idolized people.

P.S. By The Way, this is a voice from Malaysia, come hop by Malaysia when you're free. Cheers Bruno...

Life ~ Just Another Piece of Cake

2011-01-06T02:17:00.009+08:00

EVER WONDER ON HOW MUCH PEOPLE GRUMBLE ABOUT THEIR LIVES ON HOW IMPERFECT IT TEMPORARILY? AND EVER WONDER ON HOW PEOPLE ARE NOT EVEN GRATEFUL ON WHAT THEY HAVE AND WHAT THEY ARE DOING NOW? YOU’D BETTER NOT BE ONE OF THEM…

Humans meant to be humans, always the people grumbling for having an imperfect life. “Exam ar exam”… “broke ar broke”… “sienz ar sienz”. Just because of these few small little things, we just tend to make it looks serious, but just like what we were taught, always look at the bigger picture.

We all know that it is another exam period that all of us will be facing, but please be grateful that you could even study and sit for exams. Exams made are not meant to torture people, but it is a challenge towards a higher level of living. Compare yourself towards all those people who are not able to study at all due to family issues and would need to work for their whole life since they were young, and what would they work as? Factory labours? Prostitute? Walking around streets with every harm they could possibly get just to get a nickel.

But humans could just blame everything they see right in front of their eyes, not knowing that things are just as simple as ABC. Like what I right before this, a negative thinking on how bad my knee and tights could be because I could now barely walk, probably because of my old wound that was not treated well. While I was lying down on bed, I thought of a person, my very own brother, Wallace, on the surgery he has been through and how tough he were especially during his healing season and also the event season. He worked so hard for everything not knowing on what failure and pain is, because he knew something bigger was coming for him, his future.

By comparing his life to mine, what could mine possibly be? I’ve not even consulted a doctor and have jumped into a conclusion that I would need to undergo an operation which would cost 10s and thousands of ringgit. I should be grateful that at least I could still walk and make my own life, although it hurts a lot, but things will eventually come to an end, as it is only temporary.

But some memory caught my attention while I was on the bed grumbling about my leg, which would be a kid whom I met at Genting who has lost his left leg. I didn’t know what happened until he could lose his left leg, but from what I could remember, he was still happy hanging around with his friends (when I meant kid, he is only a kid who is still studying in primary school), walking with crutches all around without grumbling even a single pain, and could still see a whole load of smiles and laughter within himself. His pain is a permanent pain that can never heal forever of his life, a suffering and miserable life he’ll have for his whole freaking life, and imagine on how many years does he still have to go through.

Always the world “Impossible” divided into “I Am Possible”, a separated three words that would never ever happen to the kid anymore. But look at the word from another angle. I am possible to conquer the world; I am possible to be individualistic; I am possible to do anything and everything I wanted; I am possible to climb up the highest mountain that no one could have ever done so; and there are still so many “I Am Possible to do …” within his dictionary.

Therefore, as a fully equipped people, please stop grumbling about every single second of your life. Nobody is perfect, because in this world, nothing is perfect until you believed so; nothing can ever go downwards unless you believed so; nothing can ever stop you from your dreams unless you believed so; and nothing can live beyond you, unless you believed so.

Soaring New Skies ~ 2011

2011-01-03T03:59:00.012+08:00

A STEP BEFORE THE YEAR OF 2012, WHICH IS BELIEVED TO BE THE END OF THE WORLD; BUT A NEW ENDING IS A NEW LIFE, JUST LIKE THE ENDING OF 2010, MAKING A NEW CHAPTER OF LIFE IN 2011.

Another year has gone and once again, thought to be alone this year. But things have changed as randomness picked me and my friends up to do something not extraordinary, but something different and unique as a head start for a new year. Everyone always thought that a new year, a new month, a new day is always a new life, but things would still go the way it was if there aren’t any efforts to change. Therefore, put some efforts into life and things would go differently, even if it was for a second. But why do people called it a new year is because they have bigger dreams to be achieved this year, that is not possible to be achieved within minutes, days or even months, but a total compilation of all efforts between minutes, days and months.

Treasure every second, every day, every month and every year of your life, because you wouldn’t know what would come for you all the time.

Some New Year Eve outing at KLCC

Chinese drum performance rehearsal

Fountain rehearsal

And once again, my all time favourite,

Starbucks

Look at the crowd hours before the countdown

...and see who I met

Had a little dinner in Little Penang...

... and went back for some countdown drinking,

because we wanna avoid those crowds...

... at least there is still some Christmas mood around...

...and there goes the countdown...

...

3 HOURS LATER

...

On the bus, on the way to Genting without any sleep...

... and look at the crowd during peak hour...

..."what shall I do with these crowd?

sneak over to the front since I'm small??"...

..."I"M SMALLER!!!"...

...had a very nice cable car view...

...but got stuck and lost once we got down from the cable car...

...together with a very cold, windy, soothing, cozy

and whatever weather you called it...

...but at least it is still filled with some Christmas spirit ^^ ....

... met my long lost brother, Jun Fai, and he treated us some food...

...together with some real awesome, 10 mins fireworks at night...

... are the Christmas and New Year spirit brought by Genting...

... together with a new wish for a new year...

... and once again, drink again...

... Couldn't find a place to sleep??...

... and that is how random we are, over night in the car,

together with someone farting in the car...

... and we can't drive off because of the thick mist,

sight distance: Less than 1 Meter

... but at least we got off early in the morning...

... and left a bumpy but great head start for another great year. ^^

Happy 2011 people. ^^

A Cut Above Charity: Above The Merely Haircut and Charity

2010-12-24T18:11:00.018+08:00

WHEN THE NAME ‘CHARITY’ IS MENTIONED, EVERYTHING THAT COMES TO MIND WOULD BE DONATION. BUT THIS TIME, SOMETHING MORE THAN JUST A DONATION, AND SOMETHING MORE THAN JUST A HAIR CUT APPEARED WITHIN THIS CHARITY.

Ever wonder why it is known as the A Cut Above Charity? My guess would be that “hey, this charity is organized by the A Cut Above Academy, that is why it is known as the A Cut Above Charity.” Partially it is true, but the true meaning of this charity event is to bring something more than just a normal haircut and a normal fund raising kind of charity to the people. This charity haircut brings more meaning to people and to tell people on the importance of charity, as charity can be done, not only through money donation, but in some other form of methods.

Although the test was on for both the A Cut Above Academy students and also for the students of APR2 and AMS2 of TAR College. Relationships, battles, wars happened throughout this whole preparation of this event, testing the toughness of the relationship between all parties. Although it was a tough job for the A Cut Above Academy students to cut so many hairs in just a few days (and FYI, there are only 20 of them and they cut 1,000 heads in just 3 days), and only have a lunch time of only 15 minutes, that was like 3 days of hell for them, but once again, thank you all so much for bringing so much fun and joy for all of us; thank you all for bringing all the happiness to our customers; and thank you for making the whole college hall smells like saloon for 3 days (although I love it, but I think it will smell until we finishes our exam).

It wasn’t only a test of toughness for the A Cut Above Academy students, but also the organizer, as things have to be well planned, preparation for crisis from time to time, impromptu and flexibility among organizers were achieved, and once again, setting a high benchmark for a college event. The organizers placed all the biggest things the audiences have ever met before, just like the biggest monopoly that can be seen around college, the biggest scissors, the biggest puzzle, the biggest amount of prizes given, the most people shaving bald live on stage for charity, the most ambassadors for an event, the most number of hairstylist in college, the first time of having a haircut event in college, the first time of having a saloon smelled college hall, the first time for having hundreds of students lining up in front of the college hall even before the doors were open, the first that that a closing ceremony was so pack with people and there were so many thing and so many first time during this great event.

The hard work among the organizers, the quarrel and arguments among differences of opinions and also the regrets of everything that was not achieved, all ended with a big satisfaction in the heart, not only for the organizers; not only for the student hairstylist; not for those who sacrificed their hairs for charity; but all for the HOSPIS patient, during this Christmas season.

And this is why, the A Cut Above Charity, isn't just merely a haircut nor a charity... but it is definitely something more than that....

(do you know why are there so many pics?? because for those who did not come, ya'll missed big time from this event...)
