ThE LatEsT My Kad!!! (with fun & joke)

The multi-purpose Future "My Kad" will be in the version of our perpetually metamorphosing IC in the near future. With an embedded smart chip, it can also be used as a passport, store our medical history, driving license, act as an ATM card, serve as an electronic purse and even be used at the National Library... Whatever you do with the card... You will be tracked!!

It may also be a tracking device via GPRS (Good or Bad, depending on the situation). However, a recent debate has brought to light the questionable control on access, potential information abuse and privacy infringement. As the debate rages on, I can forsee a likely scenario when ordering pizzas in the near furture...

*** Enjoy the joke below ***
Pizza-Hut Operator : Thank you for calling Pizza Hut. May I have your...
Mr Tan : Haloh! Pisar Hut-ah? Can I order-ah?
Pizza-Hut Operator : Can I have your Furture Card number, sir?
Mr Tan : It's ar... hold on prease... ar... it's 690230-88-5551
Pizza-Hut Operator : Thank you, Mr Tan Ah Beng @ Or Kwee Tau. You're calling from 17-D Lorong Cempedak, Gasing. Your house number is 6788988, your office number is 6788788 and your mobile is 021-6788688. Which number are you calling from?
Mr Tan : Home-lah, wah, where you get al my phone numbers-ah?
Pizza-Hut Operator : We are connected to the Future Card system, sir.
Mr Tan : Ok-lah, ok-lah, can I order a seafood pisar?
Pizza-Hut Operator : That's not a good idea, sir.
Mr Tan : Why cannot-ah?
Pizza-Hut Operator : According to your latest medical records, you have high blood pressure and high
cholestrol level, sir.
Mr Tan : What? Wah-lau-eh... medical records also you know. So what you lecommend?
Pizza-Hut Operator : Try our low fat Hokkien mee pizza, I'm sure you'll like it, sir.
Mr Tan : Wah, how you know I like Hokkien mee-ah?
Pizza-Hut Operator : You borrowed a book titled 'Popular Hokkien Dishes' from the National Library last
week, sir.
Mr Tan : Ok, ok, beh-tahan (cannot tahan). Give me three family size pisar. How much-ah?
Pizza-Hut Operator : That should be enough for your family of 10. The total is RM45. How would you like to
pay?
Mr Tan : I pay by Future Card, can or not?
Pizza-Hut Operator : I'm afraid you have to pay cash, sir.
Mr Tan : Why?
Pizza-Hut Operator : Your credit card is over the limit and you owe your bank RM6720.55 since October last
year, sir.
Mr Tan : Ok-la, I run to ATM to take cash before you come yo my house-lor.
Pizza-Hut Operator : You can't sir, based on the records, you've reached the daily limit on machine
withdrawal today.
Mr Tan : What?!?!
Pizza-Hut Operator : The latest withdrawal is RM250 for 4D and Toto at 4:56pm, sir.
Mr Tan : Nevermind, just send the pisar. I borrow money from my Ah Mah. How long-ah?
Pizza-Hut Operator : 45 minutes, sir. But if you can't wait you can collect it with your motorcycle. You are
only 5 minutes away.
Mr Tan : Where for transport?
Pizza-Hut Operator : According to your Future Card, you own a Honda scooter, registration number FE
3288...
Mr Tan : Ka-nee-nah!!
Pizza-Hut Operator : Better watch your language, sir.
Mr Tan : Why should I?
Pizza-Hut Operator : Remember on 15th July 1987 you were convicted of using abusive language on a
policeman...
Mr Tan : **{ugh}**
Pizza-Hut Operator : Is there anything else, sir?
Mr Tan : Nothing. By the way, still got stock on the 3 bottles of free cola as advertised?
Pizza-Hut Operator : We normally would, sir. But based on the records, you are also diabetic...
Mr Tan : Nevermind-la. I'm going to the hawker centre to tah-pao. Pisar no stock...

Birthday Greetings......

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY TO

FeStIvE sEaSoN...

December is really a month with festivals... What will you be thinking when it approaches into December??? Winter?? Snow?? Christmas?? Presents?? Anyway, i guess everyone will get to feel that Christmas is appraoching and it's almost the end of the year... Ok... I know we can't get to see snow and feel the festive season in Malaysia, but we can still celebrate Christmas... (Actually we should be happy that other countries are celebrating Christmas while it's cold, and we're celebrating in the hot & humid weather... ^_^)

Will anyone of you be in the eagerness of eating "tong yuen" in December??? I think not many people do think about it... For your information, "tong yuen" is made of glutinous rice powder... It's purpose of the "tong yuen" is to celebrate the chinese festive season known as "Dong zhi"... I think in english they call it "winter festival".... This year's "winter festival" falls on the 23rd December(Saturday)... On that day, my mom prepared the dishes and whole family including my relatives came to my house for a reunion lunch... Actually nothing much during this festival, but it has a benificial meaning of celebrating it.... For "winter festival's" informations... hehehe.... Go to www.wikipedia.com and do some research...

Today is Christmas and I cannot imagine myself writing this blog while lazying at home... Anyway, I guess my cousins would stay at home too... My parents have gone to 1U for shopping... Anyway, don't know why this year's Christmas is so quiet and cold... Cold as in the feel of Christmas is not here... Honestly, I can only feel it just on Christmas Eve.... (last night)

Last night was Christmas Eve... I've prevent myself to go bbq which my friends organised... Anyway, yesterday evening I went for an interview... OMG!!! I think I'm not going to take that job... The manager could not give me an answer that whether he's could hire me... GREAT!!! Ok... back to my Christmas Eve night... I had BBQ & pot luck dinner at my house... (Hahaha... I guess you've been thinking that I've stayed at home just to organise my own Christmas Eve dinner...) Honestly, I don't like celebrating with friends during Chrsitmas Eve... I still prefer to have dinner & BBQ with my family, my foster mother's family and some close friends... Ok... so let's see... the dinner begins at about 10pm... BBQ's preperation was done by my mother... And the pot luck dishes was prepared my uncle and I... It's so great that this year's christmas eve dinner, I get to try new food.... Anyway, I don't wana talk much about the dinner... A words to all of you... If you're keen to join my family's Christmas Eve dinner, then you should give me a call next year!!! ^_^

***Note : Shin Yi, I'm sorry that I didn't join your Christmas Eve dinner party.... I hope you enjoyed with SY, BK, LH & YY

Adioz....
MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR (2008) !!!

Hang Outs...

*** Beware, long post AHEAD!!!***

20/12/2007, Thursday
On this particular beautiful morning, KY and I was alerted by FY's morning call at 8:30am... Can you imgaine how hard was it to wake up that early, as both of us slept at about 2:30am the night before...OMG!!! (although we're already late...) After breakfast, we walked over to the bus stop... It was almost 9:35am, we end up taking a cab to Time Square... I had promised FY to meet at about 10am... Honestly, I don't want her to wait alone at the cinema ticket booth counter... My prediction was right, KY and I arrived just as the same time as FY... Anyway, we had the deal that the one to reach will buy the movie tickets... Great!!! How do I know how many of the boys are coming????

Gave J & CW a call... Both of them were just like fooling me around to switch the calls... Anyway, I was really angry at that time... I don't know why... Anger arouse in me just like that??? I don't mean to complaint that I have to pay for the total amount (RM99) for the movie tickets... I really don't know why I'm that angry at that time... Ok... wana thank FY and KY for going window shopping around... FY, honestly to say I'm not bored while you were shopping around at the clothing shops, it's just that I guess anger is still in me and I'm not in "it"...

Had our lunch at Time Square's Gasoline... SY gave me a call at about 1:15pm... Thinking that SY found us at Gasoline... Again it was my fault to make a mistake for not telling her properly that we're at Time Square's Gasoline... Ending her up walking over to Sg Wang to find us... SY, sorry!!! Sorry that it was my fault to make you walk over to Sg Wang... Sorry!!! Time showing 1:40pm, the total bill was RM35 for the drinks & food... Our show suppose to start at 1:50pm.... Anyway, SY met me punctually at Starbucks near GSC...

I really felt that I was totally weird today...Why??? Now, FY was the one getting angry as J & his friends were late for the movie... But me??? How can I be so patiently waiting at starbucks with SY for them... I really cannot understand myself... I was like leisurely chatting with SY while waiting for the group of boys... Anyway.... all of the "late ones" went into the cinema theatre at about 2:30pm... Hahaha...

It was a miracle to see Jon, JL & Sha in the same movie theatre as I... They were just sitting 2 rows behind me... Great!!!! Jon, I think recently December is a month that we were fate to meet each other... hahaha.... I really enjoy that day in coincidence meeting you at KLCC and now at GSC cinema... Ok... I guess everybody is out from the theatre... Only left SY, Jon, JL, Sha and I were the last ones to go out... KY missed call me while I'm in the ladies... J called me when I was on the way with SY to find them.... Great!!! I don't even know there is a shop call S&J... I can go speechless and lost my way if I'm in Time Square... Ok... CW & his friends were nowhere to be seen... How about us? Also walking over to Sg Wang???

We (there were 9 of us) end up having a drink at a shop formally known as "RBT" at Sg Wang's 6th floor... At that time... I was really speechless... Sitting there just like a fool... Everybody was having fun even SY was already sticked to the TV which shown Jolin Tsai's concert... Haiz... Next, FY, KY & SY decided to go capture photo stickers... At first was like they were choosing around at the 6th floor's machines.... In the end, ending up capturing it at the "downstairs" one... Supprisingly was like there were 5 of us.... FY, KY, SY, J and I....

Never expected that FY and KY could go back at 8:30pm that late... For me nothing much... It's just a normal to me... And SY, of course she will not have to worry as she's following me back for a stay at my house.... Wana thank God that today's outing was kinda unorganised but everything went fine...Thank you so much!!! Anyway.... after much thought.... at last I bought my "favourite idol's" new album... I was shocked to hear that separated into 3 gangs of us went back differently... FY & KY took bus home.... SY and I went home by monorail and LRT.... and I think J went back himself by monorail too.... Great.... REally weird lar....

Hey FY, KY and SY.... Could 3 of you stop brain washing me... I don't mean "brain washing" but it's hard for me to explain my real feelings... My relationship with the "people" were just friends.... Nothing more than that... Read CAREFULLY!!!! It's just NOTHING MORE THAN friends, ok??? So, don't try to care about anything!!! Take care gals, we'll find one day to go out together again with organised plannings!!!


21/12/2007, Friday
Cannot imagine that recently I can sleep very late and wake up very early... SY and I slept about almost 4am the night before... Guess what??? We woke up without any complains at about 9am... Hahaha.... Accompanied by SY, my parents and I had the normal "dim sum" for breakfast.... Without any hesitation, SY and I headed to 1U...

I was like being vacumed to visit ELLE at the new wing, 1U... I knew that Friday was Matthew's day off so I guess I would not have the time to chat with him about going back to work.... Anyway, heading into the New Wing's ELLE boutique.... It's just like an unfamiliar place to me... New partimers, New staffs... It really changes a lot!!! Everything is totally different!!! Anyway... I don't think I wana go back to this type of environment to continue my part time job.... I'm sorry!!! Supprisingly when I was at the Old Wing's ELLE.... I could see the familiar faces... Lai Fong is still working... Ika too!!! LF is leaving in January.... So I can say there will be 1 more week to see her in the boutique...


Anyway, sorry for giving this comment.... Today's outing was so much better and much organised compared to "yesterday's".... Although SY and I didn't plan what we're going to do in 1U... Sorry for the comments!!! Bowling seesion with SY was fun... At first we paid RM10 for 4 games.... We were lucky that we started before 2pm... The rates will be different at 2pm... After the 4 games.... As SY and I call it as "warm up session".... We're really just warming up.... Getting to score the pins... hahaha... At last we end up playing another 4 game... Great... It was my first time to go window shopping with SY in 1U... We end up spending our time at ROMP.... Ok.... I made my decission to change a little of my clothing look... Honestly, I wana say thanks for giving advise to buy the RM45.90 suite....

SY, I hope that you had fun this 2 days... Sorry for everything that I'm unable to make it... I hope next day we will have a better outing together and spend more time together.... Remember our promise..... 31st DEcember will be our last meeting before your holiday ends!!!

Today
Now, I'm sitting here to complete my post... I will be going to KL SenTral later at about 2:30pm... Great... it was after 1 year and I could meet back Crystal!!! Wish me luck and I hope I could get a better part time job... Will update today's agenda soon, wait for it, catch it out!!!

Take care, my friends.... Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!!!!

tIrEd.....

17/12 Monday
Woke up at 8am.... Went for "dim sum" with my parents.... Next, I walked to the police station as it was just a distance away.... At last I've got my police report..... Ok... without my driving license, I can't drive.... After breakfast, I took a cab to JPN (the centre where you go and make your IC)..... Great.... Lots of people.... So crowded....

I was so mad at that man who gave me the form.... He just called me to fill up the small little form.... He didn't even tell me what's the form for.... When I asked him, he answered me, "Maaf, cik, belakang masih ada orang sedang beratur....." what the.....

Fine.... I've waited about 3 hours till it's my turn..... Anyway..... reall;y wasted that 3 hours at JPN..... Anyway..... can you imagine I've to take another cab to JPJ (the centre where you renew your license & car rotax...).... Can you imagine.... I've taken 4 1/2 hours to get a complete temporary IC but I've only taken 30 minutes to get back my new driving license.....

A word to all of you : Never lost your IC or you'll waste your time and money (fine RM100)

Jokes are Laughter's Best Medicine....

Head Of The House
When everyone on earth was dead and waiting to enter Paradise,
God appeared and said, "I want the men to make two lines.
One line for the men who were true heads of their household,
and the other line for the men who were dominated by their women.
I want all the women to report to St. Peter."

Soon, the women were gone and there were two lines of men.
The line of the men who were dominated by their wives was
100 miles long and in the line of men who truly were heads of their household,
there was only one man.

God said, "You men should be ashamed of yourselves,
I created you to be the head of your household!

"You have been disobedient and have not fulfilled your purpose!

"Of all of you, only one obeyed. Learn from him."

God turned to the one man, "How did you manage to be the only one in this line?"

The man replied, "My wife told me to stand here."

Birthday Greetings......

HAPPY BIRTHDAY
TO
SHERAN & CS!!!

May this year's birthday be a special day to both of you and a blessing to yourself that you were born on this day...... God Bless......

With a "DoWn" mood

Have you ever lost your I/C and driving license at one go?
Ok.... Honestly I've been thinking what i'm doing recently....
It just happened to me yesterday at one go....
Strange things always happen in me....
I don't know why December is the month that i'm always having a bad luck....

Anyway.... people out there.... Take good care of your belongings....
Never simply put it anywhere.....

我不配 ~ 周杰伦

***Sing along while watching the MV below......
词曲作者:作词:方文山 作曲:周杰伦

这街上太拥挤 太多人有秘密 
玻璃上有雾气 在被隐藏起过去
你脸上的情绪 在还原那场雨 
这巷弄太过弯曲走 不回故事里

这日子不再绿 又斑驳了几句
剩下搬空回忆的我 在大房子里
电影院的座椅 隔遥远的距离
感情没有对手戏 你跟自己下棋

还来不及 仔仔细细 写下你的关于
描述我如何爱你 你却微笑的离我而去

# 这感觉 已经不对 我努力在挽回 
一些些 应该体贴的感觉 我没给 
你嘟嘴 许的愿望很卑微 在妥协 
是我忽略 你不过要人陪

* 这感觉 已经不对 我最后才了解 
一页页 不忍翻阅的情节 你好累 
你默背 为我掉过几次泪 多憔悴 
而我心碎你受罪 你的美 我不配

Repeat all once

Repeat #,*

ShoPPinG in ChInA

A man went on a business trip to China and wanted to buy some gifts for his kids. He went to a shop and found a nice looking CD player. Wary of buying inferior goods, he asked the shopkeeper, "What would happen if this does not work?"

The shopkeeper quietly points to the only sign in English that reads, "GURANTEE NO SPOILT"

Feeling assered, he paid for the CD player and returns to his hotel. He tried to use the CD player after returning to the hotel but it would not even switch on.

He quickly return to the shop and asked for a refund or an exchange for another unit. When the shopkeeper refuses to give either, the man points to the sign assuring him of a gurantee.

The shop keeper then said, "Brother, you are now in China. We read from the right to left. SPOILT NO GUARANTEE.

Sr2A's Class Trip @ Genting

6th December, Thursday
It's been the last journey for SR2A's.... I've never tried waking up with a bad mood....
The only minute when I reached KCGHS.... Was just a miracle to me.... People waiting there were just 5 of us including myself.... The weather was also tremendously changing...
It's already 8:10am.... Two "friends" approached in my eye.... It's hard to describe my feelings
Happy? sad? shamed? supprised? These were not the feeling to describe my feelings....
At that particular time.... I'm already in love...

Sitting right almost the end.... When i'm in the bus.... With SY & KY.... Not wanting to chat or sleep.... Feeling unsafe and uneasy.... Poeple around me were focussing the drama "Huan Huan Ai".... Why I'm not? Sorry.... I'm not a drama fans.... Feeling sick & tired.... At last i fall asleep... The moment i woke up....
Above was covered with clouds.... Below was drizzling.... Reaching the Genting Skyway.... Not wanting to do anything...

Reaching the peak of our destination.... Feeling down.... Was it because of the bad weather.... Walking through the rides.... Still drizzling.... Though I'm sick.... I just don't have the mood.... Why were we broke up.... Only left 4 of us.... The story is now ending in another way.... The ending that I don't wished to faced.... The moments when we're checking into the hotel.... Miracle happened.... Lazying around.... Walking around.... Staring around.... The weather it's getting cooler.... Freezing around the corner.... Being able to feel that Christmas is around the corner.... Beautiful lights & decorations which attracted me to start taking photos....

Over the dusk.... ZY, J, CW, KY, FY & I were all in the room numbered 10666.... Poker cards were all in our hands.... The ever first time.... Lying on the bed at that particular time.... Feeling so sick.... I knew it... I knew it was the sick given by the love demon.... Why? Leaving the room.... A road tracking begin.... All the way down hill.... Wind blewing.... Rain drizzling... Chilling, freezing, sick.... All at once.... On our way back.... Confusing incidents were cracking my mind.... The outer side of me.... Brave, courageous, eager to continue.... The inner side of me.... Scared, tired, being lost just like Robinson Crusoe....

After changing the key card.... Sitting at a corner.... Right under the wind blower.... With my wet attire.... Including my shoes & socks.... Being dragged into the room.... Though with wet attires.... I'm really confused & lost.... The moment of being on top of the fence of both sides.... Made me dropped into a hole of infinity.... I'm already chilled.... I'm already really sick.... Why can't I move to change my wet attires? Sleeping in the room.... With peace & quietness.... It made me thinked that I'm already lying in a transparent coffin with flower fragrance around me.... It's just a dream.... It's that the cause of...... Love Demon???


7th December, Friday
My slumber was disturbed by the churning intestines.... Leaving the room of 10666.... Finding a person who really cares for me.... Anyway, thanks J & CW.... For caring me with the comfort of warmth.... KY, do you know you're the best of all? I really appriciate the moments of your true care....

Being injured by YY when we're at Snow World.... Tears began brimming out of my eyes.... It's just an accident.... The love demon is disturbing me again at this moment.... Feeling so down to hear KY losing her handset.... Searching all around but it was just a failure.... The track continued at Ripley's Believe It Or Not.... I've been there for more than 5 times.... Boring.... Why am I feeling so useless after walking through the movie theater.... Leaving one behind and the other one just right beside me.... What can I do? The sun is shinning brightly outside.... My heart is shinning dimly inside.... Bowling session was the worst.... I really don't have the mood.... I really just want to pack up my things and just leave that place.... Nightmare is already approaching in front of me!!! I'm just praying in myself, "God, can I just leave that place?"

The last journey.... The last moment.... The last minute.... The last second.... Time is already running after me.... Though sharing the last moment with in the bus.... I just want to be alone.... All alone by myself.... But I can't pass through Shu Yi.... She's so in deep focussing on the tv.... I can't walked passed her....


Take care my friends, Bon Voyage!!!!

Birthday Greetings...

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY
JOANNE LEE!!!!!!

.........

I'm so speechless till I can't come up with a title for my post today....
I'm so tired, exhausted...... Really need to have a good sleep tonight...
Anyway, SPM is going to end soon!!!!
How I wonder the days are approaching to 4th Dec immediately....
Only left 1 more paper to go..... CHINESE!!!!

After my school's court case.....Great.... the construction work started again....
The whole of B and D block being removed...
I will really miss the special corners of these 2 blocks
First few days was quite ok.... quite quiet....
Today is the worst of all....
When the exam is on, there was no air-cond supply, so all doors and windows are open...
Can you imagine how noisy the construction sound is???? SOUND POLLUTION!!! :P

Great!!! Today after my P.A (Prinsip Akaun) paper at about 9:25am...
We never expected that the discipline teacher came back to school to spot check the students attire and hair length....
Worst of all.... I really pity those students who tie their hair into a bun but without the "net"...
They have to buy the "net" from the prefects.... (imagine.... 4 prefects guarding at each entrance)

Can you imagine.... It's school holiday.... Everyone should be on break....
What about us (form 5 students)?? Bearing the exam stress..... and this..... useless spot check....
How lucky it was... the prefects left the entrance after about 10 minutes....


Today.... consider to be the most exhausted day....
I've not been sleeping well.... Insomnia??
Anyway.... after accounts today...
It's my first time to go out immediately after the exam......
It's my first time to take METROBUS to Sunway Pyramid......
It's my first time to hang out with Shen Yee, Jia Jin, Jia Yun, Wei Sung, Tzee Leng......
It's my first time to ice skating......
It's my first time to enjoy with Sook Yee at the ice skating lounge......
It's all my first time.......

Anyway, today's post I don't have a title....
And I don't know how to end......
Good Luck people..... in studying CHINESE......
I will be having fun tomorrow in the "Fujifilm Photography Youth Camp" (3 days 2 nights)


sign off......

All About You...

Never say I love you

If you really don't care

Never talk about feelings

If they aren't really there

Never hold my hand

If you are gonna break my heart

Never say you are going to

If you don't plan to start

Never look into my eyes

If all you do is lie

Never say hi

If you really mean goodbye

If you really mean forever

Then say you will try

Never say forever

Coz forever makes me cry......

The Photograph - Part 1

I have only seen him once, and even that was an accident. I was tidying the storeroom during a semester break, and was packing some old books into a box when, suddenly, a yellowed black and white photograph fell from the pages of Robinson Crusoe.

I had seen many pictures of strangers before, friends and people my mother knew when she was younger, and they never once stirred my interest. But this man's smile seemed to speak to me.

Just as I was about to turn, my mother grabbed the photo from my hand, and left. She didn't speak about it when I met her at dinner alter that day, and her silence made it clear she wanted no questions.

Now, 10 years later, I have that picture with me again. Time and patience have taught me that only now, would I understand, and truly accept the facts surrounding it.

The man was my father.

With only the photograph, and his surname mumbled hesitantly by mother, I was on my way to where he used to live - a fishing village in Melaka.

Mother warned that my efforts would be in vain, for she had never seen nor heard of him for over 20 years. I told her that even if I would not find him, some memories would be fine.

"That place is not like here. It is cramped, and they don't speak proper English. They'll want your money, so don't dress nicely. They are poor and will do anything to gain your sympathy," her words echoed in my mind.

I started asking around as soon as I arrived. First in the markets, the at the roadside stalls where dark-skinned children could be seen selling pickled mangoes and cucumbers. A few ran up to me, with fake roses in their hands. They smiled and held out the flowers, beckoning for my kindness. As I reached for the coins in my pocket, I looked at them from the corner of my eyes, never directly.

I could see the excitement growing in their eyes though. It seemed as if I was the only person who had stopped to buy from them, as their hands were still full with the plastic stalks, while their feet were dirty and blistered from miles of peddling.

I gave one flower boy the money and waited for him to go away. but he stood there, waiting for my eyes to meet his. I looked at him and said, "Yes?"

"Thank you Encik, God bless you," he replied.

I wanted to say, "It;s okay, you're welcome," but I don't know what made me reach into my pocket for the photograph. "Don't be silly, this boy wouldn't know a thing," I muttered to myself.

Anyway, I showed it to him and was ready to put it back when, without a word, he grabbed my arm.

"That is my Papa, Joe Rodriguez," he said, with eyes wide open.

I didn't know what to say or how to react. That was the name my mother had mumbled the day before.

With his tiny hand holding mine, the flower boy silently walked me to the edge of the market and through a village. I felt slightly unprepared, for mother had taught me to always take along some gifts when I visit. I began to panic and looked around for a shop, or maybe a stall that sells souvenirs.

I told the boy to stop and explained that I was not ready. Without letting go of my hand, he gestured to the plastic flower I had bought. "He make it. He will like it."

I looked at him, smiled, and walked on. It is going to be okay.



***To be continued....

The Photograph - Part 2

After a long walk through the back lanes, we stopped at a path, which I saw a road sign written 'Lorong Cempaka' in green bold Arial font. Then, a long shaped wooden door could be seen distinctively. When the boy laid his hands on the door knob, I stopped him from fumbling it.

The heartbeat of mine beating even faster, my hands were mighty cold and sweats seeping out onto my palms. Confusing words were running through my mind. "How would I start my conversation?" I muttered to myself. Despair brought another question in me, "Must I call him Papa when I see him?" asking myself while sorrow provoked in me.

Without bothering me, the boy pushed the wooden door open, which creeked loudly. All that focused into my eyes was a set of china left on a rough wooden table surrounded by four small stools. There and then, tears began brimming in my eyes, but I hold back my tears with great effort as not wanting the boy to notice.

The tiny hand of the boy hold mine, pulling me till the entrance of the room. He then walked over to a man who was lying on a mat.

"A-Pa, we have a tetamu, wake up! Wake up!" said the boy in the sing-song Melaka Malay accent.

My mother's words, "they don't speak proper English," echoed in my mind. I then paced towards the boy who was standing beside the man who was sleeping on the mat with the mixture of excitement and curiosity, until what I saw really shocked me. A familiar person, so weak and frail, was sleeping on the mat. his face, I could remember after I first saw the photograph of him, used to be smooth. But it was now pale, gaunt and wrinkled like old leather.

Slowly, my excitement melted away and I began to hold my father's hand and waited for him to be awake from his deep slumber. as if father could sense my arrivals, his eyelids slowly opened and looked at me with his sickly spiritless eyes.

"Pa...Pa..." I called out with a quivering voice, while the brimmed tears rolled down my cheeks.

"Ma... Mar... Mark... Is... that... you..."answered my father in a raspy voice.

Somehow, my father did not seem like the kind of person who would leave his wife and his children.

"Papa, is that you? I'm glad that I could find you back."

"Mark... Mark..." repeated my father meanwhile he coughed.

I hugged my father, tears were bursting our from our eyes. Suddenly, my father being surprised started to cough continuously and then collapsed on my shoulder. I panicked and could not get my limbs to move in any direction but the boy, who I finally realised that he is my brother knew exactly what to do. He run out of the house to the opposite 'Ludther Family Clinic'. At that time, it was a nightmare and in every tree's shadow I saw the monsters were waiting to take my father away from me.

After a few minutes, I saw the arrival of my brother followed by a doctor and a clinic nurse. The doctor examined my father. I stood aside, feeling helpless and defeated, hoping against hope that my father would open his eyes and shout, "April Fool!" Only it was not April and my father was not fooling.

After the doctor has examined my father, he turned back and faced my brother.

"I have told you to be prepared," he told my brother solemnly.

"You are lucky to have had him for this long."

"Doctor Ludther, can I know what's wrong with my father?" I asked.

"Lu siapa?" questioned the doctor.

"I'm his son," I answered the doctor while being tired and sad.

"Your father is facing a death of lung cancer," added the doctor.

Without hesitation, I ran over to my father trying my best to talk to him, but the clinic nurse protested. On perceiving the gestures from Dr. Ludther, who was standing right behind me, the clinic nurse walked away and left us alone. Soon it was only my father, my brother and I, just it had been minutes ago when I first had my contractions. Now, my father is on the mat awaiting his final departure from his material world.

My brother and I were with father right up to his last breath. It was on unfitting end to our relationship as father and son who have just been reunited. No goodbye though, my father did not even regain consciousness. All I could be grateful was that the serene look on his face assured me that he had no guilt in this life.

Although I had come to terms with my father's death, there was a feeling of incompleteness within me that craved fulfilment. While going through my father's "assets", my brother found his 'Last Will and Testament'. In spite of circumstances, it made both of us laugh.

"Brother!" yelled Steven, my younger brother the next morning.

"What?" I shouted back from the main entrance where I was observing the carrier carrying the rough wooden table into the lorry.

"Come and see what I've found!"

Thumping through the hall I anticipated from dead rats to fallen roofs. It was neither. In Steven's hand was a sheet of an old yellowish paper and he showed it to me. I read, in his large, cursive handwriting:

LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT - JOE RODRIGWEZ
To my beloved wife,
I leave a little of my income - My money
To my beloved son - Mark,
I leave a little of my much-loved earth - My artificial flowers
To my son - Steven,
I leave my favourite place of rest - My sleeping mat
To my whole family,
I hope to leave no feelings of rue,
To where I go in that place above,
I shall watch all of you forever with love.

It has been a year since my father left us and we both brothers have survived by the continuation of my father's business in Kuala Lumpur. My brother and I have opened a florist along Petaling Street.

LoVe

Continuation article of 爱的领悟。。。

What is love? Benjamin Franklin once said "If you would be loved, love and be lovable." Love is something we all experience at least once in our life. There are many different meanings for the word 'love' and most people interpret it differently. The word 'love' as defined by the Webster's dictionary is "a profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person."

On the other hand, love can also easily be defined as having a strong affection, devotion, passion, desire, warmth, respect and loyalty. It does not matter which of these words represents love because they are all the forms of love. Some of them are powerful and demand attention. while others are so precise as to be difficult to describe which is just below the surface.

Besides, love is sharing. Sharing is being honest about yourself and allowing other people involved in the relationship as to know who you really are. Being able to share your problems with your family and friends is the step in the right direction to a love route. As we could see, many marriages and friendships come to an abrupt and untimely and because the two parties could not communicate properly.

Sometimes, I wonder about love. I am sure everyone does, every now and then. I often ask myself, what exactly is love? At last, I am attempting to formulate this complex quixotic phenomenon. I admit that love is compassion. To me, in order to have love, one must first understand and share with one another.


Many people often think that they will be happy when they are in love. For example, there was a lovely old woman lying on her deathbed whose children rallied around her. She told them that "Everyone, no matter how secure they seem, no matter how old or young, how rich or poor had need of me." (Can field 117-118) In my opinion, love contributes happiness in a person's life.

Have you ever wondered, when you love someone you are not only caring about him as a person, but also his well-being. For example, when he is hurt, you will feel hurt and when he is in pain, you will also fell the pain too. The physical and emotional problems are not only his, but they are ours as well.

In another way, love has also been the plot of movies and stories. Love always motivates peace, but it also motivates tragedies. "O, speak again bright angel, for thou are as glorious to this night being over my head, as a winged messenger of heaven." These are the famous lines of Romeo Montague in the play 'Romeo and Juliet', by William Shakespeare. The two main characters, Romeo Montague and Juliet Capulet became the victims of Cupid's arrow after they met at a masquerade ball. As love started between them, the conflicts and tragedies in the story started.

In conclusion, love, to me, is still a buffing mystery as mysterious of the Bermuda Triangle. What do I say? I believe that there would be no definite definition acceptable to everyone. Love is uncontrollable, unexplainable and emotional. So, love has to be experienced in order to understand its meaning.

A Big Mistake

I had my P.A class in school this morning... It was like almost 1p.m when I had my lunch. I was so exhausted and I went for a nap. Anyway, the weather's gone bad in the evening. Heavy rain started pouring down from the sky.I was still sleeping at that time.... Suddenly.....

"Yee, wake up and help me!," yelled my mother.

I immediately woke up from my slender and run downstairs. I was shocked that I thought my mother wanted me to turn on the main switch from my house's electric box..... As when I ran downstairs, the whole house was dark and gloomy.... Only what I can see is just the main wooden door flattering with the brightness from the outside....

Then, my mother was like saying. "Can you help me to turn open the screw of the alarm box, I want to switch off the alarm...."Guess what, I knew it was my neighbours alarm ringing.... It always rings when it's striked by the thunder.....Gosh.... my mother was like saying.... "Shut up, it's our house alarm ringing....."I'm really fainting at that time.... Then, my mother called the person who fixed our house alarm...... Conclusion..... it was totally A Big MIstake!!!!

Words of advice : Never panic when there is an accident, stay CALM!!!

Things That You Never Know Your Cellphone Could Do

There are a few things that can be done in times of grave emergencies.
Your mobile phone can actually be a life saver or an emergency tool for survival. Check out the things that you can do with it:
  1. The emergency number worldwide for mobile phone is 112
    If you find yourself our of coverage area of your mobile network and there is an emergency, dial 112 and the mobile willsearch any existing network to establish the emergency number for you, and interestingly this number 112 can be dialed even if the keypad is locked.
  2. Have you locked your keys in the car? does your car have remote key?
    This may come in handy someday. Good reason to own a cell phone. If you lock your keys in the car and the spare kets are at home, call someone at home on their cell phone from your cell phone. Hold your cell phone about a foot from your car door and have the person at your home press the unlock button, holding it near the mobile phone on their end. Your car will unlock. Save someone from having to drive your keys to you. Distance is no object. You could be hundreds of miles away and if you can reach someone who has the other 'remote' for your car, you can unlock the doors (or the trunk)
  3. Hidden battery power
    Imagine your cell battery is very low, you are expecting an important call and you don't have a charger. Nokia instument comes with a reserve battery. To activate, press the keys *3370#. Your cell will restart with whis reserve and the instrument will show a 50% increase in battery. This reserve will get charged when you charge your cell next time.
  4. How to disable a STOLEN mobile phone?
    To check your mobile phone's serial number, key in the following digits on your phone:
    *#06#
    A 15 digit code will appear on the screen. This number is unique to your handset. Write it down and keep it somewhere safe. When your phone get stolen, you can phone your service provider and give them this code. They will then be able to block your handset so even if the thief changes the SIM card, your phone will be totally useless. You probably won't get your phone back, but at least you know that whoever stole it can't use/sell it either. If everybody does this, there would be no point in people stealing mobile phones.
