read and run player

Wednesday, August 15th, 2007

It’s really fascinating how efficient ppl can get nowadays, as soon as I posted a blog, even before I can let my wife know, there are already some people reading my blog… Wow…. Amazing~~~

The funny thing is, I didn’t realise that there are ‘players’ out there that will read my blog, coz I always post entry on private matter and I seldom see ppl post comment. Hehehe, guess there’r lotsa 8 gong 8 po out there that is a ‘read and run players’ too… Puiii~~~ don’t say ppl, I also one kind… hahaha…

Anyway, I will fully utilise this curiosity of yours and post anything that I want to tell the world… so, stay tune…

Day of mixed feeling

Tuesday, August 14th, 2007

There’s a mixture of sad, sympathy and angry today.

Let’s talk about the sad, pity and angry feelings, 1 by 1.

I called my friend in US (Eric) yesterday, he told me a sad news, that one of our secondary schoolmate died of brain cancer at the age of 26. Her name is Jiwa, a malay friend that studied with us in the same school for 3 yrs only, after that she went to other school. When I posted a blog (title: "My next chapter in life") saying that I’m going to get married, she posted a reply saying that I must invite her to my wedding. But she died this year sometime in April.

During my drive back, while listening to the news on radio, it came a sad news, 20 ppl died on a bus crash at Bkt Gantang. I really sympathise those victims, and it doesn’t help reading the newspaper today that a husband and his pregnant wife died in that crash, the reason they are in that bus is because the husband wanted to accompany his pregnant wife to her hometown to deliver their baby. So, I guess that brings the death toll to 21 ppl to be precise. What is suppose to be a sweet moment turns sour, in fact turns bitter.

Ok, that’s life. Face it. Life is fragile, you can get diceases or involved in an accident anytime. People are selfish, they make decision based on their best benefit. So, people out there, love your life, every moment of it, appreciate your love one for they make you feel wanted, thank your hate one for they show you how to be patient. Whatever it is that happen to you, how worse can it be? You’ll get pass that, and you’ll look back saying that it’s just a small matter. Some people just wish to trade your hardship and life with their no-worries and soon-to-die. Love and peace~~~~

Take for granted

Wednesday, August 8th, 2007

Whenever something is always available, people take for granted.

Every night we would kiss each other goodnight, greet each other "Sweet Dreams", tell each other "Love you" before we go to sleep, even if we are distance apart, we would call or text each other to practise our ‘norm’.

5 and a half years, without fail (except occasions when we quarrel) we would kiss each other before we go to sleep, but recently I found myself starting to take this for granted. I’ve started to take this as a normal practise just like most people must brush their teeth before going to sleep.  I realise that I took this simple but pleasing goodnight kiss for granted, and I appreaciate this simple kiss more than ever.

Now, not only I appreciate the goodnight kiss more, I will kiss you in the morning too. Because you are often moody if you don’t have a good sleep or don’t have enough sleep, I want to make your day by a simple good morning kiss too.

The art of communication

Monday, August 6th, 2007

Well, it’s kinda weird reading the Namewee "Negarakuku" news lately, the government is accusing Namewee for disrespectful to our national anthem, "Negaraku". But Namewee insisted that he started from musical point of view. So, it shows same issue, different opinion.

Same goes to communication between a man and a woman. Have you ever heard of the phrase, "Men come from Mars, women come from Venus."

When women talk, they just want to be listened, but men want to provide solution. This is where conflig begins if you do not understand the logical behind. When woman talks, she just want you to listen, if man asks questions or interupt to give comment, then she will think that you are not listening. The other way round, when man talks, he wants you to ask more, to give comment or opinion, else, he will think that you are not listening.

Besides that, the defination of certain word also irritates both sexs. 1 example, faithfulness. When men say they are faithful, it actually has a more ‘physical’ meaning, like, kissing, hugging or holding hands. When women talk about faithfulness, most of the time, it has a more ‘mental’ meaning. Men don’t regard yum cha with female friends alone, or talking to female in a flirting manner as unfaithful.

Every couple has different uncommon ground, and I’m giving the example after listening to few friends, reading, and observation. So, understand your men or women, know what the silence or the questions means.

After re-reading my post, I found out that some might think that I wrote this blog after a quarrel with my wife… Nonono, we are fine… I’m writing this blog merely from what I observed, read, heard and know.

Anyway, another point to add, Namewee finally asked to attend a court hearing… He who make music has to face the music… That’s the world, different point of view…
