Impact Of A Soul To A Soul From A Soul

I attended the wedding of my colleague and a senior schoolmate last Saturday. Like normal I would be there before the time stated on the card, and then I would wait for the others to come and chat. True enough, the wait was like normal as the dinner started at about 8 prior to the 7 sharp note on the card. I guess it’s a norm again, hai.

It was a definitely a night to remember, firstly is the grand entrance of the loving couple, where normally they would just enter accompanied by music of some sort, but this couple walked in like stars man. They were singing a duet while walking in until they were seated. Something definitely different from all those I went to before this.

But before the start of all these, we were happily seated and started off with a few brandy coke. One of my colleagues was like sober after 2 drinks. I was like, how could this be, how could you get sober with just 2 drinks. Well, I thought never mind, but the following actions from him was a bit the extreme, so I don’t want to talk bout it. overall the dinner was good. I meet with some ex colleagues as well as some of my seniors school mates. That was really fun. It’s not like every day you get to hook up with people which you can relate the past with.

I guess these kinda wedding gala is unavoidable during the “good” months of the year, more if your friends and peers are at the right age, so to speak. I guess it’s like a wave that comes and there is no way you can stop it, but go with it.

It was really a fun dinner and I guess it’s was a really different one with them singing as well as the karaoke session was handpicked with the better bunch with the everyday songs we hear not the 60s kinda song. I guess they have made a lot of effort to making it a wedding that would be enjoyable to all.

I think it’s really nice to have a wedding or whatever function the way we want it. It would be so worth spending all the time and energy until you drop dead everyday. But the results will be of our liking. It would be so much comforting to know we put all the effort and it came out just as we wanted…

Congratulations to the newly weds, Kok Loong and Yuet Wean

MMS of a chinese looking lady being asked to strip and do ear squat. All right! This has to be highlight of events in these past few weeks of incidents. First, it was the chinese national reported being mistreated, then it was the legal action taken against a student for reporting a bribery, the midnight harassment and then now this mms. If you are, still blur bout all these then may be you could surf to this site http://thestar.com.my to check on the articles.

This is disgracing and the fact that it has made it to the front page in one of the papers today. However, I have not seen the other papers but I guess it would be in the front page of all the papers given the shocking meter, which maxed out in my opinion. The mms was brought to the attention of major parties and everyone is disgusted and even me. But there has not been much comment made regarding the case as there is time needed to ensure the authenticities of the matter at hand.

This has further fuel the distrust and adding to the disgrace as well as tarnished further the image of our law enforcers. I guess many people will have the mindset that this is not news. As to them, this is like a refresher that what they have experience of talked about is true. It is like reinforcing the truth that has been going on in the air in coffee shops, behind closed-door discussions and stuff like that. Although we can see that a change is going on, but to do it, it’s a different story. Let alone trying to change the mindset, which has been embedded in the minds of the society since so many years ago. If you were referring to a program or microchip, then it would be so much easier, just erase and put in the new configurations. Nevertheless, with humans, skeptical minds are always present, which questions and definitely not change so easily.

I was again listening to my morning talk show and there was one listener who called in and made his statement. He said that he was a video game center person in charge. He was apprehended once and according to him, he was asked to strip and did the ear squatting routine. From this, I would conclude that the video has a probability of 80% genuineness.

This is totally an outrage and breach of trust between the society and the enforcing forces. Imagine we entrust them to guard our belongings, shelter us from the misfortunes and provide help when in need. And then we see that they are doing just the opposite. They start abusing the power vested in them and look at the atrocities that have befallen our society. Distrust among society and law enforcers is I guess at a peak with so much going on.

I guess there have been so much being said regarding this matter, but when will the change come. When will we say that all this is the past and we have a brighter future? I totally disagree with the treatment given, not only to them but even criminals, as they are deemed innocent before proven guilty. Even if they are guilty, they are still living human beings, no one has the right to treat another in such despicable ways. I guess we still have a lot to learn in terms of living as one community. It is just not right, what has happened in our society as well as in others. We hear of war, racial issues and so much more. These are just going to tear everyone apart. Why can’t we live just live as one? Why? Why? Why?

Why can’t we have a big nation called humans?
Why can’t we live together?
How much more pain and agony do we need to suffer?

Peace and Love to all
May we lead a better tomorrow of peace and love…

Pst, damn cough, damn phelgm. I’ve been miserable for the past 2 weeks and now coming to 3. I’ve been coughing like a mad dog. The worst is the last cough has finally break it. I saw traces of blood… it’s getting a bit the scary, so go away you evil virus.

On the new today, the cabinet has voiced out that the law enforcer should not filed a court case against the student. *yipee* I guess our society are taking a turn to a better future. Way to go and congrats to Sze Kuan.

Another old post from the previous accomodation
Just felt like bringing it to the new home…

When U were only 5 yrs old, I said I Love U…
U asked me: “What is it?”
When U were 15 yrs old, I said I Love U…
U blushed… U look down and smile…
When U were 20 yrs old, I said I Love U…
U put your head on my shoulder and hold my hand… afraid that I might disappear…
When U were 25 yrs old, I said I Love U…
U prepare breakfast and serve it in front of me, and kiss my forehead and said: “U better be quick, it’s gonna be late…”
When U were 30 yrs old, I said I Love U…
U said: “If U really love me, Please come back early after work…”
When U were 40 yrs old, I said I Love U…
U were cleaning the dining table and said: “ok dear, but it’s time for U to help our child with his/her revision…”
When U were 50 yrs old, I said I Love U…
U were knitting and U laugh at me…
When U were 60 yrs old, I said I Love U…
U smile at me…
When U were 70 yrs old, I said I Love U…
We were sitting on the rocking chair with our glasses on… I’m reading your love letters that U sent to me 50 yrs ago… with our hands crossing together…
When U were 80 yrs old, U said U Love me!
I didn’t say anything but cried…
That day must be the happiest day of my life!! Because U said U Love me!!!

It’s ironic, but yet it’s so true that you might start to well up with tears as you read. How many times have we said these 3 words to the wrong person?? How many times have we said the 3 words to the right person?? Often enough we keep these words in the heart, not telling them, how we feel inside, for fear or rejection, shy and so forth. And often enough these words are muttered out of desperation when things have gone bad enough that it is ending. Was it out of desperation, stress, or true from the heart… how to know??? Should we go on telling every tom, dick and harry we know we love them?? Then people will start staring like we are aliens from mars.

But I guess it is simple and true that simple words can mean a lot, now who says actions speaks louder than words huh!!! A very subjective matter that applies to different person at different time I guess.

I find that I myself have not been using the words since a long time ago. I have I can pick up the courage to tread back to start using them so I can show how much I care and appreciate those whom I love so much, mum, dad, family, relatives, and of coz all my princesses. Wish me luck and definitely you have my wishes of luck support!!!

“I LOVE U ALL”

1. Wrong to sue; Param: Need for law to protect whistleblowers
• Student sued for defamation after reporting being forced to bribe
2. Cops Came at 2am, claim Women
• Police check on foreign women at 2am for surety of documents

I guess for more information you can read these in the star papers today or online at http://thestar.com.my. I heard bout these two stories from the radio and they are still having a debate on these matter now. I guess I was not really surprised and had a some what, finally its here thought. *shakes head smiling*

How many times have we heard of accidents, burglary, theft, lost of possession and many, many other stuff like that happens to someone we know, but ended in a more horrible way when it reached the authorities. And I thought that would be the worst but then now I know there are worse than worst, which has happened in our society.

I salute Foo Sze Kuan for her courage to challenge the forces that was to protect us. She broke some law and was stopped by the law enforcers. She was allegedly asked by the law enforcers to pay a bribe to them. She did as asked and then later lodge a report at ACA after being persuaded by her parents. She is now being sued by one of the law enforcers for defamation. I’m glad that she still stand tall on her stand regarding this matter. More over I’m glad that she is being backed up by Datuk Seri Nazri Aziz. This would be a good sign, as it is showing that we are on the right track.

On a different note are the women who reported being mistreated by the law enforcers. They reported that law enforcers are knocking on their doors at 2 am, just to check if they are really married and living at the address given. I find this absurdly disturbing. According to what I have heard on the radio just a while ago, one would need to committed an offense or the law enforcer has a warrant before they can so such things, otherwise it would be wrong and it is disrespecting one’s rights. This to me looks like harassment to me as well.

I guess our society has been bombarded with issues and issues lately. In addition, I find that these are issues that we would normally said “It’s Malaysia what”. Even before this matter came out, the debate was always there, of all the things we would say within ourselves and our circle of friends. I have heard tales where, people get scolded when reporting a case, people need to “belanja minum” just to get some documents done or something like, people avoiding summons by bribing etc. I guess it has been a norm whenever the subject is brought up. If I ask10 person, I would say at least 9.5 will answer me how bad our law enforcers are.

I guess the society we are living in today are awakening to such social illnesses and injecting virus buster to cure the currently chronic society. I do not deny I did contributed to the illness, but I have repented and I avoid breaking and contributing to it if I can help it. I guess the reason for me to do it and for so many others to do it as well is convenience.

I am supporting these people for standing out and voicing out the thoughts of so many members of the society in all levels. I am definitely one of them. Looking at the wind of change that points us to a healthier society, we should move with it.

I guess it is so often that we take what we have heard and some experiences that we have and we make a big conclusion. I guess they are tying to show us that, there are bad eggs and there are good eggs. I guess we have help everyone in getting rid of the bad eggs and of coz we need to make sure we are not one of the bad eggs in the first place. It all starts with the individuals and then only the society will flourish and become a healthy one.

Have you had these kinda bad experiences?
Do you judge the whole basket because of the few bad eggs?
Should we be judging based on the bad eggs or the good ones?

Here are some thoughts pours by Kyels with the post Love Hurts. Well since a little bit of elaboration is needed, I thought I might as well do it here so I don’t over crowd your comments. *sigh*

I did a research in word for the word “love” and here are some of the results I picked out
1. very strong affection
2. passionate attraction and desire
3. somebody much loved
4. romantic affair
5. strong liking
6. something eliciting enthusiasm

If you noticed, you would find that it’s usually tagged with extremity, such as passionate and strong. Love can be considered the ultimate feeling as it can consists of so many emotions at any single time. It can consist of happiness, hatred, anxiety, depression, etc. Like what some has said it’s a magical feeling.

If you ask me, I would say it has been overrated and misused in our society nowadays. Every now and then, you can see members of the society using the word love, “I love him”, “I love her”, “I love this”, “I love that”, etc. I know that they are trying to express their feelings but are they expressing it correctly. How many times have you seen some lads and lass who might still clad in uniform starts yelling out “I’m in love with so and so” to the world friends. Are they really in “love”. Do they know the exact meaning of “love”. Some would say that it most probably is puppy love or something like that, but I have gotten a bit further and would think that those feelings are merely a “like”.

The word like would be most perfect as I find those are feelings of like which may resemble love. It is so often that we are blinded with a sudden burst of sweetness that we think that we are in love. We meet some one we like and then we start to indulge in the relationship, and we call it love? I don’t think so. It is always mistaken that one can easily fall in love but in reality, they actually like what they see or do or whatever. And then from there on you learn to love the person… correct me if I’m wrong. Of coz, there are exceptions, but I find it too rare to really give it a real thought, as it may be considered as a fairy tale of some sort.

Like what I have penned down, you can like a whole lot of things and peoples, as it is subconscious. You can see some cute stuff and you like them or you can be doing something for the first time and you like it. As for love, you have to really takes time. As for some thing you like to do, you have to practice a lot and like what you are doing. In the meantime being passionate bout the things you do will land you in a state where you love doing that.

As for the love of a lifetime, you definitely need to like the person first, coz that is the stepping stone for you to love them. If you do not like them at all, then don’t even think you’re gonna fall in love with them. Loving a person means to love them in whole. In whole means to love the person for who he/she is, along with all the flaws that comes with the package. Love as said will let you look surpass all the flaws and learn to accept them rather than to change them. That is why love is unconditional, unselfish and so much more. That is why love is such a magical feeling that cannot be described and explained.

Every one can or would I say are born with the ability to like and dislike, but loving is the difficult part. It is not easy to learn to love. It is a process that cannot be rushed and it is determined by the path that we thread no matter chosen or chose. All the events that happen in our daily life contribute to the learning process of love.

So when you think that you love someone, think again…

Do you LOVE them
Or
Do you LIKE them

We have seen in movies. We have seen it in real life. Some of us may even have paid money to see them in real life performing shows. So, could we say that it’s no big deal? If we have known of this matter so long ago and some of us is that curious to find ways and means to locating and see them in real life. So what is the big fuss about?

I guess it all became a public discussion again when a public event was hosted and was covered by the news. It all started with Jessie and Joshua with this and then this and this. Then there was this. And then I saw this regarding Mumtaz.

I have checked and here is what I have found this

Transsexual
1.somebody whose sex is surgically changed
•somebody who has undergone surgical and hormonal treatment to change his or her anatomical sex
2.somebody who identifies with opposite sex
•somebody who identifies himself or herself as and wants to become a member of the opposite sex

I have never brought this to much deeper thoughts than a you see and that’s about it thinking. But I guess that is no longer the case as it seems to be bigger than ever now. There have been articles and thoughts from various parties regarding the matter, from individuals and from organizations. There are those who oppose the idea of transsexuals totally, some agree to an extend if it is not publicized, some just accepts the idea and some just don’t care at all.

I guess that our society today is still not at the stage where we could accept such events or changes like some of our counterparts in the other continents. Our society still holds strong to the roots of our ancestors no matter where they started of in the East. It is difficult to change overnight or even a decade. I believe that this matter was present a long, long time ago. It’s just that it was never been properly addressed. We have heard bout all these in the news, seen it in movies, read in magazines and articles, all from abroad. We all knew that it would soon reach our shores during that time, but we chose to ignore. Now when it finally reaches, it creates a long awaited uproar and the response… it’s different from individuals to organizations.

Imagine this, your kids come asking you how they will have sex and bear children? I remember someone once told me, her daughter asked this question, why the guy now only dresses like a girl unlike before whom he dresses like a guy? I guess this would be the nightmare of every parent.

As for me, basically am not disapproving, but rather why do you wan to change or why did you change. What fuels this so called “Wind Of Change”. Don’t ask me, I wouldn’t have a slightest clue. I guess if they want to live life their way, let them be. Why do you want to forbid that! If you were to do that, wouldn’t you be a worst sinner than them, if you relate them be sinners. I guess you would not like if others starts forbidding and criticizing you or the things you do. So I would say let them be however they want to be. It’s been said umpteen of times, that you should live life like you want to live it. They are basically doing that which many of us have no courage to even try. I say let them do what they think is best for them, as they know that better than any one of us. But bear in mind, I am not saying that they should be role models, but they can be and might be icons which we will be or our children will be talking about.

I just have some questions regarding this matter
What really fuels them to change from one sex to another?
What is do you expect or how would you judge such a person?
Do you think you or the society will be able to accept them as part of the community?

Ok! I am still very the blur at this moment so I will be transferring some of my old content to this new shelter. Well I guess it’s appropriate as I have another wedding banquet to go to next week. I just can’t think too much as my brain seems to have been in a hallucinating state. I either become excessively happy or blank…

These gigantic pills that the doc gave me are really effective… effective to make me sleep and hallucinate that is. I have been acting like a bloody drug addict. High one minute and low the next. Damn you flu. This is all because of you. You! You! You! I will be dropping into deep sleep soon… so enjoy some older post of mine. Nitez

So please bear with me if you have read all these before, I’ll transfer them here as new post when I’m just blank.

I guess the rules are simple

U meet some one, U get to know that some one,
U want to spend your life with that some one
U marries that some one

It seems very simple and easy to follow. But when u put emotions in the course of events then even the simplest things like cracking open a peanut a task more complicated than building the world’s most sophisticated computer system.

I guess this is a contagious game itself, within 2 years all my friends (well at least all my close ones) are married…….MARRIED……..NOT GETTING MARRIED………
Don’t get me wrong I am not grunting or anything, I do feel happy and wish them all a happy and healthy life. But the other thing that come to mind is when all of them are like focusing on me, disecting me like an insect with the “when’s your turn” kinda questions.
Another question to ponder upon is the “play the groom” game which is a chinese tradition. Looking at all my friends and my friend’s husband going through the process of drinking and eating things that has been prepared as well as playing the games specifically tailored for the groom actually made me think. Will I be going through the same process?? Do I want to go through the process that all my friends went through?? Am I prepared to go through it??
Is this game really contagious?? Is it because of influences from the people within your group of friends?? Or another big question mark is “It is because of age catching up on us??” I guess I will still be getting invitation from my other friends and still be asked the same questions.
When will it be my time?? I guess I am not ready as of this moment. Or is it not the right time?? When is the right time?? I guess I will know and I guess all my friends found their right time.
Here’s wishing all a happy life for those who are married, a happy marriage for those who are going to be married and of course happy hunting for those who are still hunting
If you are thinking or preparing for your marriage do check out this site for some assistance

Damn frigging flu. Don’t you know I need to work. You come and you go like you wish. I have to endure 2 weeks of your constant “now you got flu, now you don’t act”. Just go away ok. Leave me alone.

I have flu-rified for bout 2 weeks now. The doc’s medicine did no good to show them the door. I hope this will be the last time I see the doc bout this. Flu is no fun. It’s killing. It makes you sneezes and people surrounding you treat you like an alien whenever you sneezes.

The battle is not lost yet so you will get a war when you wish for one ok. I have seen the latest ammunition the doctor equipped me. The pills are like gigantic comparing to the normal flu pills, it’s bout 10 times the size of those. Muaaahhhaaa hahahhaha…

With that said, I don’t like pills, especially when it’s that size. But I need to win this. So I am preparing for war now and this is the prewar note. I guess when I go to war tonight, I will be so blur-rified, I won’t be around to blog. And even if I blog, I would just probably be writing nonsense with my brain dead nonsense.

Wish me luck for the war…

Will be on MC tomorrow. You know lar, the usual don’t want to transmit the virus to others. I definite need the rest to recover, may be I do have a heart not to infect all the other in my office. Imagine the whole department of 30 + staff get infected and goes on MC.

Remember the famous Ramli Burger which was so hot in town some time ago. I remember these stalls with the big Ramli sign and picture of a burger popping up practically every where in town like mushrooms. I guess at that time it was the first alternative to the all so famous beef burger and McChicken. I remember I made the burger man (as I calls him), make Big Mac ala Ramli style, not bad you know, not bad at all.

Then as I grew older and my pocket money got a little more in terms of value, the burgering times were mainly done in McDs or KFC. From then on, the springing of Ramli stalls seemed less significant and at times you thought they have actually decreases. Indeed after some time it did shrink in number as more and more fortunate brats youngsters get to savor in fast food chain rather than the old time stalls by the “kaki lima” walkway. But then I guess Ramli has made its name and fame as you can see its products in supermarkets every in town. I guess it’s gonna be Ramli burger ala home style with the deep fry method which a lot of younger kids still enjoys.

BTW, back here. I had dinner earlier and it was kinda not so filling so I stopped by at this burger stall back home for a little suppering. So I stopped and ordered my “daging special satu” (beef special one). I did not know why I sparked a conversation with the burger man, but it started off like this

Me: you all raya lama ah (you guys celebrate Raya for a long time ah)
Him: biasalah semua dari kampong jauh (normal la, all from kampong far away)
Me: you all ada cili sos sendiri ah (You all have your own Chilly sauce ah)
Him: ya, semua sendiri punya, cili sos, roti (yes all our own stuff, chilly sauce, bun)
Saya pergi training 3 bulan untuk buat burger (I went for training 3 months to learn to make burger)

The conversation goes on but the gist is that it seems even this OTAI burger is franchised. Accordingly they have like 108 stalls nationwide. But imagine, just to make this burger at these stalls, you need to attend training for 3 months. They must be pros and dedicated to the art of burger making. But I must say, their burgers do taste different from the rest out there. The bun is soft instead of hard and they don’t use margarine while cooking the meat. I also got it that the main outlet is in Batu Caves. I guess any things a business when u put a business edge in it.

I guess I am doing a lot of crap lately, including this, but I guess what inspired me is the dedication of people to make a living. Although many may things burger stalls are just hawkers, but after tonight, I guess all that’s gonna change for me at least. These guys are professionals and they are dedicated. Even I not that dedicated to get a professional certificate for my work related matters nowadays.

Another is I guess people who create the brand name Ramli and OTAI, are people who grabs the chance and believed in themselves. Imagine Ramli who had the famous fast food chain to battle with when he started the Ramli stall. And definitely OTAI who went on to challenge the existence of Ramli dominating the burger stalls market shares. These are chances that caught their attention and they grabbed it and made good use of it.

What bout you? Have any chances flown by you before? Did you manage to grab the chances and made full use of it, or you wasted it? Would you have the courage to grab hold of the chance and make full use of it knowing it would be a difficult struggle? All these questions and so little answers

A chance is a chance, taken or not, still a chance…
Would you want to regret taking the chance…
Or
Would you want to regret not taking the chance…
