Westlife --The Best Ever--

    The theme of this post is about music. Music makes life complete. Music makes the world goes round. When I was in Standard 5, I first knew this boy band from Ireland. And yeah surely they are WESTLIFE!!

    Some people dislike boy bands. Some people despise boy bands. Some people even discriminate boy bands. However, Westlife was the very first idol of mine before I got to know who are LeeHom, JayChou, Leona Lewis, Beyonce, One Republic, Maroon5, Backstreet Boys, Avril Lavigne and many many more. That was not because they are handsome but the talent they possess had caught my eyesight on them. They voices sound sincere, warming, helpful, attractive, honest and unbreakable especially the enthusiasm in singing I learnt from Shane Filan.

    Westlife was formed in 1998 with the former name Westside until they noticed there was already a band using the same name only then it was changed to Westlife. About 12 years upon the formation of the band Westlife, they had released 10 albums with over 100 songs. This Irish boy band won many “The Best Single” for those songs they sang. The songs that are often played on my laptop includes “My Love”, “Swear It Again”, “Flying Without Wings”, “I Lay My Love On You”, “Unbreakable”, “Fool Again”, “Obvious”, “Uptown Girl”, ‘Seasons in the Sun” and the first song that I listened to them “Queen of My Heart” etc. Some recent songs such as “The Rose”, ”Amazing”, “You Raise Me Up”, “Home”, “Us Against the World”, “Something Right” etc are nice too. Meanwhile, the latest album released by Westlife is "Where We Are".

    The songs of Westlife cheer me when I’m upset. Westlife comforts me when I get hurt. Westlife shares my happiness and sorrow all the times. The lyrics of Westlife songs are so meaningful and the lyric I like the most is “Obvious”, so far. I like this song as it depicts *something* between her and me. Okay, I’m going to share some pictures of Westlife in here. Before I forget, this is the list of the albums that the Irish boy band Westlife had released.

CNY

Well~ I have been busying with the household works since I accomplished my final exam of year2 semester2 and went back home. There were loads of works to do, almost driving me nuts. It wasn't simply about sweeping the floor and cleaning the corners. See what I've done.

Looked after a toddle who is so trouble-making. (yet he is adorable when he obeys you and talking to you in a language that only he himself can understand. lol)

Bought some materials such as flour, cocoa powder, raisins etc from grocery shops for my aunt to make cookies for sale. (I guess the cashier is already bored of seeing my face more than twice per day.)

Offered my honourable (=.=)'' assistance to the making of traditional Kuih Kapit. Lit the fire using charcoal which I seldom touch about it. After that my job was to fold the small round pieces of cooked Kuih Kapit into a size of one quarter of a circle. I could obviously feel the heat of Kuih Kapit steaming my fingers that I almost cried out loud. *Don't laugh at me please* Then let the pieces be cold and keep/arrange in the unused & thoroughly washed and dried cream-cracker tins when the temperature of them drops slightly.
(The kuih kapit will be affected with damp if you place it cold for a long time)

Did some cleanup of the house. Cleaned those stubborn dirt and stains to usher the coming of Metal Tiger Lunar New Year.

Made payment of  the unpaid bills. Exchanged new RM notes at Bank.

Visited post office to send my mum some home-made cookies. (I was totally taken aback at the attitude of the Mxxxx servants. Couldn't they just explain nicely & friendly to me the incompatibility instead of elevating your voice your tone your emotion to be tense? Yet there was a notice KINDLY reminding them to welcome customers with smile and service with happiness. But I could feel NEITHER. 凸(=.=)凸 )
*Vision 2020 seems getting further and further away. 

Bought a new jeans for CNY at Billion. Decorated and "reddened" the house.

That's all. By the way I'm not so into CNY mood as though there's a thorn in my flesh but I can't figure it out what the f*cking thing is. Oops.. I'm sorry. Alright.

Wishing you a joyous, prosperous and healthy Chinese New Year 

with the companionship of your beloved ones. 

Gong Xi Fa Cai~!! Ang Pao Gia Lai.. *giggle ^^ 

略寫

我是智障了嗎？腦殘得那麽厲害。
新年的腳步聲已近，趁機會收拾了房間。
無意閒撿到了一本F5的高數習題簿就興致勃勃地想試一試身手。
結果才發現我丟了很多從前的知識，忘了很多認真背誦過的方程式。

天啊！記憶力衰退得那麽厲害。真佩服我自己。
別人說那是因爲人腦的記憶存量有限，當我們用不着那樣東西時，它就會自動被刪除。
所以我在想，快樂的記憶如果沒有不停地溫故知新是不是也會有被遺忘的一天?
同樣的，悲痛的回憶如果一直藏在心底，陰影始終還是揮散不去 。

做人要快樂，人生短短幾十年，一眨眼過往雲煙。
來時赤條條，去時任何東西都帶不走，唯剩一縷縷灰飛煙滅讓人追憶。

所以請你務必認真及精彩地度過這一生。共勉之。

I loathe you

Disclaimer: The theme for today will be a little bit rage & savage, uncivilized but sensible. So read and understand it at your own risk. 

Well~ My desire to compose a post was triggered by him. Uncle Aw!
    He is an agent of the landlord since I moved to the double-storey terrace house from G-block. First and foremost I'm so thankful to my san yi for her cordial effort to search a house for me. Due to some disgraceful circumstances, I decided to move out from 10th floor to stay with my friends in another house. (and it's administered by Uncle Aw)
    Loathed him for the first time was at the time we moved from Solok 3 to Lorong 6. He disgustedly said we owed him electricity fee amounted to RM1000++. Oh please! We did constantly pay for the fee. That was owed by previous + previous*t times seniors who did not have much responsibility, apparently. he asked all of us to pay for it. Excuse me~ It should be a negative consumption externality for us. It's an uncompensated impact done by the seniors to all those bystanders like us. So we unanimously decided not to pay for it.
    Loathed him for the second time. Due to some unavoidable circumstances, we all gotta moved and be separated with one another. At the second house, he has hidden his bad nature. Later on some people in that house moved out and I became the so-called in-charge of that house. Good time would never last long. Pretty soon, Uncle Aw forced us to move again saying that our house has got insufficient number of students which could not sustain his profit. Fine! That's why we moved from Lorong 6 to Lorong 8.
    Loathed him for the third time when he argued that we owed him electricity fee for that house. It was also RM1000++. Hell! Are you creating a cock and a bull's story? It sounds ridiculous and non-sense to me. I guess you're getting older and older that you almost forgot I was the person who had always been keeping an eye on the bills. All were paid and none was unpaid! He was still heartlessly stubborn & greedy. He argued until his face has turned reddish but he still insisted on it. So finally I gotta SHUT his motherfucking mouth UP by showing him the previous paid bills as a proof. As evidence that he demanded for so long. Since then I never heard his complaint.
    I did not know why. Maybe he felt sorry that came from his conscience. Maybe he agreed with what I said: "Uncle, if you insist to malign us and collect the fee from us, it means you doubt with my ability to manage the house". Or simply because he has realised that he could not take any advantage from us since we were not naive as how he imagined.
    Loathed him for the fourth time. After we had moved from Lrg6 to Lrg8, he renovated the so-called "haunted, cursed and bad-lucked" house then rented to another group of students! You're fucking CHEAP! Not to mention all the things happened thereafter, he was really getting on my nerve. Yes, I admit. I will only notice the bad in you and ignore all the good you did before. That's because your good doesn't worth a single penny for me to look at it.
    Loathed him for the fifth time. I hope this is the last time. It's about the damn shit electricity fee again. This time is caused by an uncle & his spouse. They are doing catering business including cook and deliver service. Somehow but I dunno how, their business winds up and they had run away disgracefully without leaving a trace. The fee that they owed within 3months are about RM1000++. (It's odd and strange. It's about RM1000 electricity fee every time. Eww) Sadly it's the same excuse that he cannot sustain the little profit.
    Again, we are told to move at the last minute. The day before I had my last paper. I was totally not in the study mood after he appeared and proclaimed such news. He told us that this time is Lorong 7 but he didn't give us the house key yet. I wonder how are we going to move our things there and stay if we don't have the key. I'm still unsure about the outcome of this battle. Pray for a better life in the last semester of my diploma course. Cheers.


I like this artistic work very much! :D

p/s I know it's difficult to handle the houses & I'm amazed at his efficiency in collecting our rentals. Collect fast, service low. Should he retire and enjoy the rest of his life instead. Again, this is only my feeling and how I think. All rights reserved.    今时今日这样的服务态度是不行的。

Starting Afresh

This is a new yet challenging year.
I got plans. I got goals. I gotta play the role.
So I start with a little change over my desktop background.
LOL at my stupidity. :D

Before

After

This was done in conjunction with the coming of Chinese New Year.

It looks pinky fresh now instead of the dying greyish.

CNY? Should it be a cheerful & joyful one.

Gong Xi Gong Xi!!

Felix Felicis

Seriously I think I need a small portion of this liquid for my exam.
Gonna ask from Professor Horace Slughorn if I run into him.
And perhaps it can only turn real in my dreams... LOL!

 

    Felix Felicis is a potion that is "Liquid Luck". Felix Felicis makes the drinker lucky for a period of time, depending on how much is taken, during which time everything they attempt will be successful. It must be used sparingly, however, because if taken in excess it causes giddiness, recklessness and dangerous overconfidence. It is highly toxic in large quantities, and is also a banned substance in all organised competitions such as Quidditch, along with all other methods of cheating. It is very difficult to make, disastrous to get wrong and must stew for six months before it is ready to be consumed.

A short & sweet advice

    All too often you get so involved in things that you look at life through a microscope. Amplifying manifold, an invisible speck becomes an insurmountable mountain. 

    Now, put down the microscope and imagine yourself a year from now looking back at today: 

"Does this really matter?" 

Then, you'd have the answer on the inside of you. 

It's torturing

It's Final Exam time. Again.
You gotta gracefully turn yourself in exam mode.
No matter how fucking reluctant you are.
In fact, you're really not into it.
You don't really give a fuck about that.
But this is fated. You got no choice but to follow it.
So ended up squeezing all the books into your mind.
You cannot miss even a single page a single line a tiny word a theory etc.
You keep telling yourself with the never-ending motivation stories.
You enlarge your targets and goals to energise, refresh and sustain your efforts.
In the end you see the halo of victory.
Surrounding you faithfully.
Your life wouldn't be lousy anymore.
Your hardship leads you to another climb.
Dream what you dream and wishing tenderly for it to come true.
So you gotta try and make it nice.
Although it's a wee bit of torturing.

虚

这个世界是虚拟的。一切是虚构的。
有人谦虚谦恭、虚心讨教；有人爱慕虚荣、虚情假意。

虚 X 实

虚伪 X 真实

这个现实世界以假乱真。
真真假假傻傻分不清楚。

就算你有海市蜃楼般的虚幻，我也不会像不雕朽木那么虚弱。

Say it well

 

Is that you? 

 You weren't behaving like that when I first met you.

You talked a lot and we could even go out more often than now.

When I was down, there you came and offered me consolation.

When I was greatly flattered, you shared my happiness together.

But when we're getting closer and closer, I realised that our distance is getting further and further.

We're so close and YET so far.

You couldn't even recognise my mobile number.

For the first time it might be carelessness to save.

The unforgiven second time might be you purposely intended to forget me.

I was unconscious. I'm directionless.

"Is that you? the one I thought I know well?"

The words are still spinning in my mind without leaving me a hint or clue to the answer. 

Is it time? 

As I was always thinking of you, I was always asking myself.

"Is it time to spell it out?"

I hate myself for being disgraceful. For being timid.

I was afraid of heading the steps ahead but I have had no chance anymore.

I thought my feeling would cease to be continuing but it went the opposite way.

I kept asking myself and I told myself not to disclose my feeling and show you my meaning.

Then only I noticed that I was wrong.

Time is precious and it's slipping away. Together with the courage to show you my meaning.

If I could I would. To turn back the time to spend longer with you.

And now only a little hope is being held that all the memory won't just fade away and vanish without a trace. 

Am I right?

There's no right or wrong to be judged.

If there's any, then I'll be the wrongdoer and pleaded you to give a way out.

I was wondering whether what I've decided is right or wrong.

Am I right? Am I doing this right?

I couldn't properly answer this. Because I didn't have the answer in myself as well.

It's an underlying question that needs an accountable answer.

It's regardless of right or wrong.

It's about actions and subsequent consequences after all.

You're the one with pride. I'm the one with dignity.

Wish there's no more "Am I right?"

It's Serve Me Right, then.

                     Just gotta take it easy. It's another blue blue sky.

Do you

Do you know that I miss you everyday?
Do you know that I'm missing you now?
Do you know that I was missing you one second before this?
Do you know that I missed you yesterday?
Do you know that I have missed you secretly?
Do you know that I have been missing you since we met?
Do you know that I have had missed you for so long?

You may not know. But I always know that I Do.

This is it

Here's to a wonderful New Year.

And a warm adieu to the old! 

Here's to happiness, good times, good cheer.

And the many joys yet to unfold.

May all your wishes come true in the brand new year!! Cheers~!

Busyness

I gotta finish the OMS assignment as soon as possible.
The birds are chirping and it's early in the morning.
Dawn raid. Night gone.

It's still.. still.. incomplete. It couldn't be handed in without completion.

SERVE ME RIGHT!

I had totally ignored that particular assignment
as I was busy preparing for non-stop tests, presentation, tutorials & etc.
In fact no one likes last-minute works. So am I.
But situations forced us to do so due to those unavoidable circumstances.

One more thing, the novel-writing competition is going to meet its due date.
Seriously I am busy preparing and hoping someone or something
could bring me some more-than-usual inspirations. I need inexhaustible ideas right now.

2009 is going to give way to 2010. It's another brand new year.
And of course. Got one year older. *sigh*

May the year 2010 bring joy and felicity to everyone of us.
All the Best in 2010!

启程

即将来临的星期一晚，是一位中学好友启程的时候。
美国，好像什么都很发达的国家。

与君同窗共度的岁月，没齿难忘。
今宵一别不知何日再相聚，以水代酒敬上一杯，

真挚地说声：珍重！一路顺风！

特此献丑落笔挥毫：

再回首青涩当初， 

见末次随行之路；

冠概祝福满人生， 

宇宙光辉映鸿途。 

*当然会去机场送行*届时见*

Harmonise

The movies are bringing more and more concerned issues that are NOT negligible.

2012- We are warned. Repent!The end is near.
Avatar- Greed could make a person lost his humanity.

That's right. We have only one Mother Earth. Any destruction & pollution shall be prohibited.
We want green environment for our next generations.
We want fresh air for our children.
We want water that is safe to consume and use.

We are granted so much but the greed is never-ending.
We feel discontented & demand for more and more.
We destroy the natural ecosystem.
We excessively polluted the environment without noticing the consequences.

We Have Done Too Much! The resources aren't inexhaustible.
Perhaps harmony can bring about settlements through negotiation.

The time has come to realise

Without world peace we can't survive

Our past is one that's filled with war

Compassion is what we're looking for

It fills me up with so much hope

To realise how beautiful

This world could be without anger

Which drives us all against each other

Let's promise to us, our hearts and souls

With wisdom we can gain control

That' why we sing this song to you

Just don't lose faith we're here for you. 

So hold on,

Harmonise all that is wrong

And work for a peace which is strong

And gain some respect for this earth

For all the mankind we will serve

Two sides

Everything has got two sides. Every person owns two sides for sure.
Sometimes we just don't see the other side of something.
Sometimes people just don't show the other side of them.

Do not ever cross the line.
I could be tame and wild.
I could be heartless and enthusiastic.
I could be ostensibly quiet but is actually planning for my revenge.

Do not try to intensify His good-side impression to me indirectly through Your conversations.
You may have probably ignored His bad side.
You may have overdone your old tricks. Overdone is worse than undone.
You may not know you could possibly make me hate Him even more with the "aid" of your speeches.

Do not test or measure me.
I could be weak & fragile when I seem so tough & strong.
I may lie to you when I tell the truth, just to protect myself from invisible harm.
I could also be unfriendly & impolite if I'm forced to be savage & uncivilized.

Instead of sitting and waiting to die I would rather stand up and fight.
People usually possess two sides in oneself.
The other side would only be shown up when necessary.
That can be a good try if you are about to make me show it real.
Then my other side would just thankfully say "Fcuk You"!

Forgive for my rudeness.
Ignore my madness.
I just couldn't stand with my double-sided behaviours.

Nonetheless, I'm sincere in relationship.
Don't ever show up a I-don't-give-a-shit face to me.
I need you to speak. I'm always ready to listen carefully.
That's why we are given & gifted with two ears and only one mouth.

My heart could actually be easily broken like a piece of glass.
My soul could actually be triggered like a ball of fire.

Sometimes you don't reveal a truth that you already know
because
you don't want to But Not you don't need to.
You bear the responsibility to report but you don't want to spoil their reputation.

Sometimes you don't have to make heavy explanation
simply because
the one who loves you doesn't need it.
& the one who loathes you doesn't believe it.

*It's a murmur. I don't suffer from Split Personality. LOL.

Preparations

  => Preparation bofore my cousin's wedding ceremony
~went in & out to buy the materials
~arrange the tables & chairs
~being a helper who stood by to assist at any time
~took valuable & priceless photos

I got three angpaos for that particular morning.

This was for opening the bridegroom's car door.

This was for serving him a cup of egg-tea.

 

This was for delivering him a bowl of sweet dessert. (longan)

  => Preparation for tests

Business Economics test is finally over. Commercial Law test is around the corner.

I gotta be prepared for that. Equipping myself with the knowledge of all the test content.

This time, I promised to myself that I cannot be sinful anymore. I gotta pull up my socks.!

~GOOD LUCK~ #All the Best#

"Homestay"

Last few weeks ago I followed my friend to his hometown-- Bukit Mertajam.
That could be considered as either a homestay or a vacation.
(because I gained weight of 1.5kg in 4Days 3Nights)
OMG~!!

Might be because of these. Scrumptious XD

I received secondary school education in BM before.
So I'm quite familiar with the place where my friend stays.
We went wandering around the luxurious shopping mall.
We went dining at different venues.
We went for fascinating & hilarious games.
We intended to go for movie but had finally given up
after taking a long queue & were told that the movie theatre was full!!
We went house-visiting.

 

Messing around at Vincent's house

 

Fat me lying comfortably!

Those days passed without leaving a trace.
We were all competing with Time in a must-win race.
Graciously no one torn us apart.
And we knew that it was time to depart.

p/s
After visiting his house, I realised the reason why he has always been wanting to shift his Friday classes to other days so that he can go home earlier. That's too conducive. Too harmonious. Too comfortable. Too enjoyable. For the next semester, they proposed the next station -- Taiping..

(In) relief

How to get rid of those interruption, disturbance, uncertainty, anxiety, moody feeling, messed-up mind, troublesome & annoying problems?
My ways are simple.
=>Blog it here.
=>Exercise (perhaps some gym workout & badminton).
=>Listen to my favourite music my favourite bands.
=>Friend suggests to think wider look wiser.
=>Recall some happy remembrances.
=>Read some self-development books to seek for motivation.
=>Talk to my peers.
=>Do housework.
=>Have a comfortable bath.
=>Watch some movies that previously I had no time for them.
=>Search out the photos where memory lies anonymously in.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

That's the first dinner that I joined for the lengthy 19years since I was born.
It's an upmost honour and I was glad that I could be a part of that night.
*special thanks to Ming Chiet for fetching. Susian Kow for sponsoring photos. Ee Lin for companionship.
*nice meet to Dorene, Pying, LuLu, Evelyn, Seow Wen & 1 more senior at that night.
(sorry if I misspell your names because I have bad memory. =P)

Thank & I treasure so much for those who are always there whenever I need. And now I'm in relief.

Between lost and found, you showed me the difference.

Between safe and sound, you showed me the distance.

~The Difference by Westlife~

Reality

In reality, LIFE is sometimes too tough to go on.
When something occur, there are different kind of responses from people around.
These are the proposed "hierachical level".

Ignore it totally. See no evil. Hear no evil. Speak no evil.
Show concern but do nothing.
Pay attention to join in the discussion.
Provide support and belief.
Involved highly and fully committed to offer help in deliverable state.

We should appreciate any offer of assistance given
=> no matter it is helpful or helpless.
=> if it is done in good faith.

Some people tend to hold-out. Tend to escape. Tend to avoid contacting.
Some people tend to aid. Tend to face. Tend to stride forward for us.

Sometimes we just can't belittle people's abilities.
They are good at both beneficial & detrimental ways.
Got inspired by THEIR abilities of faking a smile or a sentence after they have done bad deed.
Won't they feel GUILTY for those loved ones?
Won't they have NIGHTMARES in the middle of the night?
I have culture-shock whenever it comes to my knowledge about their immoral behaviours.

But what to do after all except having grievance in yourself?
We couldn't expect much more.
We gotta head our lives as usual for sure.

  This is Life. This is Reality.
