i like Calvin and Hobbes very much … that’s what i m going to do during holiday … sketching cartoons/comics! Yeah … used to be my past-time … when is the last time i drew anything? Hmm … "blondie" in 1998? Haha

Calvin and Hobbes By Bill Watterson

Despite Calvin and Hobbes’ mere ten year run, it remains one of the most fondly remembered and influential comic strips ever created. At its peak in 1995, Calvin and Hobbes was syndicated to over 2,400 newspapers around the world. This makes it one of the most successful strips in history, as selling to even 1,000 papers is a very rare occurrence.

Calvin and Hobbes captured the essence of childhood like no other strip except for Peanuts. It featured Calvin, a young boy of about seven, and Hobbes, an anthropomorphized tiger who may or may not have been imaginary. It was never made clear whether Hobbes was real or just a product of Calvin’s vivid imagination, and that was the primary hook or gimmick of the strip. When Hobbes was with Calvin, he was shown as a real tiger and was quite large. When Hobbes was with others, he was often portrayed as a small stuffed tiger. Calvin’s parents are never named in the strip, and only a few other regular characters appeared such as Susie, a girl in Calvin’s class, and Rosalyn the babysitter.

Although it’s difficult to accurately compare the popularity of earlier strips such as Popeye or Li’l Abner to more contemporary ones, there are only a few late 20th century strips in the same category as Calvin and Hobbes such as Peanuts, Garfield and Dilbert. The unique thing about Calvin and Hobbes is that the authorized exploitation of the strip was entirely limited to the publication of the strips as book collections. The cartoons are currently being reissued and re-syndicated to newspapers, but there never was, and probably never will be, any licensed merchandise since Bill Watterson is vehemently against such commercialization.

Artistically, this opposition to any licensed material is perhaps understandable–there have been many questionable licensed products involving comic strip characters–though this has ultimately limited the exposure of the strip to new audiences. This is regrettable since the strips remain as fresh and relevant today as when they were first created ten to twenty years ago. Luckily new audiences still have access to the book collections which continue to sell well, and the recent publication of The Colmpete Calvin and Hobbes has no doubt generated new interest. But what percentage of fans, and more importantly potential fans, never read such collections because they don’t know they exist, or have never even heard of Calvin and Hobbes?

When a strip appears regularly, in a newspaper or on the internet, if its good enough it has a tendency to slowly grow on its readers to the point where it becomes part of the daily ritual.

Calvin and Hobbes Tenth Anniversary Book

The old Calvin and Hobbes comics are being re-syndicated to papers, but since there is no new content, comparatively few papers seem to be buying. Without the strips or the characters constantly in the media, will the impact of Calvin and Hobbes remain as strong a generation or two from now as it is today?

There are many older strips that, despite their contemporary success, remain all but forgotten today. Pogo is a remarkable good strip, yet how many people, even among comic strip fans, have never heard of it, never read it , or only have the vaguest recollections of it? Krazy Kat was a strip of immense creatively, yet it was not that successful even in its day. Sixty years later most people don’t even know it existed. It’s unfortunate many strips have such short life spans, but some strips such as Calvin and Hobbes deserve immortality. Whether or not it will achieve that, we’ll have to wait and see

wow! i found this 80s cartoon openings in youtube! Cool … miss those cartoons! LOL. One of my fav is THUNDERCATS! Haha

Sailor Moon Episode 1<— i remember in my early years of teaching(early 90s), one of my tuition gal(STPM) was really crazy about SAILORMOON and she does look like one of the characters! Haha. Anime … japanese came out with many such "cartoons" and i wonder if they are categorise under "cartoons"? Hmm … i dont watch any, so i dont know much.

Or Dragon Ball Z <— if sailormoon for gals, dragonball for boys? Sexist, right? Hmm …

Champions League

I read that MU beat Barca 1-0 in the semi and they are in the final! MU is very strong and consistent this season. Thu morning will be the game between Liverpool and Chelsea … with advantage of away goal to the BLUES. Liverpool needs to score a goal(which they failed in many occasions!) at Stamford Bridge … is that possible? I rather sleep …

Without someone to call my own
I will care for you, you will care for me
Our love will live forever

Shower me with your love
Shower me with the love that I long for
Shower me with your love
Shower me with the love I’ve been waiting for

I close my eyes and pray all my wishes come true
Ev’ry night I go to sleep
Until you’re mine, I’ll wait for you endlessly
Can’t you see
Fairy tales, they do sometimes come true
If you believe, it could happen to you
Like the stars that shine way up in the sky
Our love will live forever

(Repeat chorus)

Like the stars that shine way up in the sky
Our love will live forever
Live forever

Shower me with your love
Shower me with the love I’ve been waiting for

JAKS

SHAH ALAM: Water pipes maker and contractor Jaks Resources Bhd is targeting a conservative RM300mil in revenue for the financial year ending Dec 31 (FY08), up 6% from FY07’s RM282.2mil, as it awaits the confirmation of a number of projects under the Ninth Malaysian Plan (9MP).

Chairman Datuk Zolkipli Abdul said the group planned to allocate about RM10mil for capital expenditure to upgrade its machinery in its Bentong plant if it secured the Pahang-Selangor interstate water transfer project and the Langat II water treatment plant in Pahang.

“To date, no parties have been awarded the two projects yet,” Zolkipli said after the company AGM and EGM yesterday.

However, Kumpulan Darul Ehsan Bhd (KDEB), the investment arm of the Selangor government, had received a letter of intent from the Government in February.

Kumpulan Perangsang Selangor Bhd (KPS), which is 60% owned by KDEB, has a 10% stake in Jaks.

Jaks group finance general manager Chee Seong Heng said: “We are confident we should be able to secure some of the packages as we have a strong alliance with KDEB.”

The projects were expected to be awarded by year-end, he said.

Currently, Jaks is bidding for water-related projects worth RM1.5bil in Malaysia.

Jaks had an unbilled order book worth RM202mil that could last for two years, Chee said, noting that it currently had on-going projects in Kedah, Selangor, Sabah, Perak, Terengganu and Malacca.

Additionally, Jaks was eyeing water-related projects in Sarawak under the 9MP, he said.

However, he declined to identify the projects.

On expansion overseas, Chee said Jaks was in preliminary talks with local partners in Dubai and Vietnam on water works in these countries.

Meanwhile, Jaks was not affected by the increase in steel prices as most of its projects were at their tail-end now he said.

Moreover, steel is a controlled item and price increases can be passed on to customers as variable cost.

Besides, Jaks could mitigate the risks of price increases as it had its own manufacturing arm, Chee said.

He added that that its production facilities were running at 30% to 40% capacity.

Morning!! I said …. M-O-R-NNNNN-I-N-G ….!! I cant hear you?! Haha.

yeah … i m still alive, trying to kick-ass again. LOL.

I need to go for my 8am class now. Will write about my tenants, yogurt making and … emmm …

9.45am

Yogurt Making

My gal, Mag wants to buy the yogurt-making machine. She knew that i m sort of "against" any buyings especially items that will only be used(rarely, in fact) occasionally and left to collect dust. But, i surprised her by consenting her to buy anything she deems necessary. I mean, i cant keep saying ‘no’ to my family, right? Yah … i never really stop her from buying anything(except the g3 which costs 200+ and conned by the direct-seller) … i want to see her happy. If buying items could make her happy, why not? WAIT … i know i m contradicting myself here. You see, it is difficult to make them(or anyone, as the matter of fact) to understand that ITEMS WILL NOT make them happy … temporary, may be but will NEVER able to fill the void inside them. These are empty-human with attachments to BUY items.

Hmmm …. you cant fight them, join them! Haha … nope, i will NOT join the craze surrounds me … but i will not stop them chasing their illusions. Let them be la … relax, bro.

2.20pm

I m supposed to hv a SAM class at the moment, i thought. But, i was told(and reminded) that there was a change in the time-table, due to the IT lecturer. I was supposed to take his last week Thu class? Hmm … i m lost of time. Yeah … need to start to use my dairy/notebook and write down things again … i m currently waiting for HOLIDAY. Hehe

My Tenants

One of the boy(the one working at saloon) is moving out … so, his friend(studying in UMS) will be shifting to the smaller room. Currently i m using the room. Well, we need to advertise "room" to let again … that is stressful as we never know what type of person will be living under the same roof with us, especially with my 2 kids.

Wastage All Around..

Posted by: filmcritic77

Despite the increase in the prices of food and commodities all around, I still see wastage everywhere. People leaving half eaten food at KFC, slices of pizza untouched and so on. While half the world is starving and in need of food, here we are wasting valuable resources at the expense of others.

It never fails to amaze me how people can pile up their plates at buffets and leave plates of food uneaten. Is it the ‘kiasu’ syndrome of fearing to lose to others even in gobbling up food? i feel that gluttony always rears its ugly head at any place where food is served abundantly. What happens to the uneaten food? Most probably thrown away. I’ve seen instances of ‘paus’ thrown away even though they are edible and in good condition.

I always wonder what happens to the pastries and buns at bakeries after the day is over. Do they dispose of it? A better solution is to collect all these unsold confectionery and distribute to orphanages and homes. While the poor get to have nice food once in a while, it also prevents wastage and a good deed is done.

Let’s all work to prevent wastage in society. Food should not be taken for granted.

He speaks my mind. Well done. Thanks.

When youre close to tears remember
Some day itll all be over
One day were gonna get so high
And though its darker than december
Whats ahead is a different colour
One day were gonna get so high

And at
The end of the day
Well remember the days
We were close to the edge
And well wonder how we made it through
And at
The end of the day
Well remember the way
We stayed so close to till the end
Well remember it was me and you

cause we are gonna be forever you and me
Youll always keep me flying high in the sky of love

Dont you think its time you started
Doing what we always wanted
One day were gonna get so high
cause even the impossible is easy
When we got each other
One day were gonna get so high

cause we are gonna be forever you and me
You will always keep me flying high in the sky of love

High, high, high, high…

Morning … Happy B/day, Feelene … It is my wish that you could always be HAPPY. So, it doesnt matter if it is your b/day or other days, just do things that make you happy. Yup, as we hv grown ‘old’ to realise that happiness could be temporary(everything is, anyway), more reason for us to cherish every moment of our lives. WIsh I could be there to give you a hug. … stay healthy and beauty. YOu are always special in my heart, dearest …

MASISWA

Spent my weekend at Yayasan Sabah courts … tired, burnt-out but satisfying. Our school managed no 5(of 13) and we won badminton. Our badminton girls are good(it is a mixed-team event like in Sudirman Cup). They beat PTPL 3-2 in the final. Another medal was from volleyball female team(no 4). Worth meaning here is that this gals, some are beginners played their heart out and the team spirit was very good. player-to-player, they are weaker BUT the team-work was good. Everyone play a part in the team. Good spirit. Except for the champ, Almacrest, they could give other teams a run of their money. I m glad to see such a fighting spirit in them To me, that is education.

Volleyball men lost all their games in their group(lack of team-work … it is obvious).

Futsal was played at Suria, a different venue. We lost closely in our first match, beat INTI but lost the third game(1-1 .. penalty kick). So, the boys did not enter the semi. For the girls netball team … we won the first game(vs ATI), lost to the eventual champ(a class above) KYS(kolej yayasan sabah) … lost narrowly 2-4 in the next game but won our last 4th game. Failed to enter semis due to the goal-difference.

We shall be more prepared next year, I told Leong — our cheif-de-mission. Oh yah, there is a friendly game of bowling for all the officers — i rushed to Sutera for the game, have nice lunch there … but no prizes given. Are they serious? 30 of them(the delegates) flew here to sabah for thts game? WOW! Plenty of MAKAN sessions … and staying in 5-star hotel. 30 of them?? Hmm …

http://chinesemusicblog.com/

starting to listen to chinese songs again … yeah. I love the sentimental chinese songs … it suits my emotions at this moment. Perhaps i m stressed with many paper-works(i dislike!!), may be nervous with new baby coming in July. May be my mom is coming to stay for 1 month? I cant really figure out the change of my moods. May be the tenants leaving and i will be getting new tenants? May be my tuition-classes will end next month as the exams is nearing and i will be getting new classes? May be i m going back to INTI to teach next week? May be … i need to settle the income-tax with the new e-filing(which a hell out of me!! Arrghhh)

stacks of papers to fnish marking … the SOW(scheme of works) … the testimonials … arrghh …

May be … may be i m sabotaging myself again. I m my worst enemy …

May be … may be there are too many "may be"s that confusing me … hmm …

Semester Break

I simply cant wait for the HOLIDAY … we will be off from 1st May(Labour Day) and for a week!! YEAH!! I think i m as excited as my students. I need the break! Many things waiting for me to address … my over-dued -driving-licence to be re-newed, to pay Melinsung and many more bills!! And to having my hair-cut … i m so-so dis-organised! Haha

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2008/04/04/ap/tech/main3995096.shtml <— Sex and Financial Risk Linked In Brain.

The erotic pictures experiment was designed to find which was the cause and which was the effect. The answer: Lighting up the reard area, in this case with soft-core pictures, caused the risk-taking, Kuhnen said.

"The more activation there you have, the more prone you are to taking more risk," Kuhnen said. "It could be a feedback loop."

The flip side was that the photos of snakes and spiders activated the portion of the brain often associated with pain, fear and anger. And those people were more likely to bet low.

This all makes sense to Harvard economist Terry Burnham, author of the book "Mean Genes." Burnham said it could be all summed up in a famous line from the movie "Scarface."

"In this country, you gotta make the money first. Then when you get the money, you get the power. Then when you get the power, then you get the women."

25th Apr Thu

Morning … i hv deleted my venoms i spat on Mr Raymond, my colleague who will be in-charge of volleyball(male) with me. As far as i m concern, i will look into the boys and gals team too. Whether they win or lose, i wish to see them enjoying themselves and gain some experience from there. That is EDUCATION.

Anyway, i m feeling better now, tho i will still be very busy with marking and classes. It will takes some time for me to clear the dark clouds hovering my head … i forgot to meditate for a week now. I hv woke up LATE …about 6.30am these days(except watching Liverpool game) … i started to contradict MYSELF … and rebel. There is always a struggle inside me, especially i m NOT doing what i like to do(or doing what i dislike to do) … it shall be clear ..

Sutera League

I do play the league for past two weeks … two weeks ago, i played 234, 151 and 189 (but team lost 1-3 as my captain Guslin not himself and played 160 average). Last week we won 3-1 and i played another good games(207, 178, 217) … tonight i will not be playing. We have dropped to 2nd place below KS Lai’s team. Man-to-man they are much stronger but we still believe we could pull it off, yet again. We are the defending champ for past 2 seasons … can we make it again this time? We shall know in Aug.

Trading

My babes are still appreciating fast and i could not buy a few more lots of them — as i mentioned, i will only look into counters again next month, after my markings etc etc.

JAKS : 0.83, Ranhill 1.67 and LionDiv 1.37 … all three has appreciated from the low JAKS : 0.57, Ranhill 1.45, LionDIv 1.20 …

Anymore best-buy counters? Tenaga? Hmm …

Rotaract

Likas Bay Rotaract invited the committees to join them for a dinner and meeting tonight. Actually, i met the person-in-charge at Sutera and spoken to him regarding "guiding" my young committees. He gladly agreed and tonight will be our first contact with them. I thought of not going initially as i want the boys/girls to learn from ‘outsiders’. Sometimes we need to let go and let them explore, u know. But since only 3 of them will be going(of 6), to make up the numbers, I shall be there too. One more plus point is that they are going to MAPLE, one of my fav place for dinner! Hehe.

Other than that, i will NOT get myself involved in any of their activities. Let the youngsters learn and be … I will just be their middle person and guide them whenever they need me. Yup, i m pulling myself out … hmm …

3pm

Regina : Thanks for being one of my imaginary audience. Hehe. Oh yes, I m in-charge of the ALUMNI, right? Yet to start any work on it!. But, I hv discussed with my committees about getting the year-2 who will still be in KK to join us — Rotaract IS. Yes, rotaract is NOT interact. That is for under 18. I like more adults stuff … dealing with more mature leaders who REALLY concern about issues that is close to their heart —- community service, i mean. You are most welcome to join us(after exams la, please …

許茹芸 - 獨角戲 <— i could be in tears singing this song …

http://powersugoi.net/tingdong/index.php

獨角戲 (許茹芸)

是誰導演這場戲　在這孤單交色裡
對白總是自言自語　對手都是回憶
看不出什麼結局

自始至終全是你　讓我投入太徹底
故事如果注定悲劇　何苦給我美麗
演出相聚和別離

没有星星的夜裡　我用淚光吸引你
既然愛你不能言語　只能微笑哭泣
讓我從此忘了你

没有星星的夜裡　我把往事留給你
如果一切只是演戲　要你好好看戲
心碎只是我自己

Du Jiao Xi (Xu Ru Yun)

Shi shei dao yan zhe chang xi Zai zhe gu dan jiao se li
Dui bai zong shi zi yan zi yu Dui shou dou shi hui yi
Kan bu chu she me jie ju

Zi shi zhi zhong quan shi ni Rang wo tou ru tai che di
Gu shi ru guo zhu ding bei ju He ku gei wo mei li
Yan chu xiang ju de bie li

Mei you xing xing de ye li Wo yong lei guang xi yin ni
Ji ran ai ni bu neng yan yu Zhi neng wei xiao ku qi
Rang wo cong ci wang le ni

Mei you xing xing de ye li Wo ba wang shi liu gei ni
Ru guo yi qie dou shi yan xi Yao ni hao hao kan xi
Xin sui zhi shi wo zi ji

Single Person Play (Valen Hsu)

Who is directing this play?
For this lonely character
The dialogue is always talking to oneself
The opponent is recollection
Unable to see the final result

From beginning to end, it’s all you
Letting what I put in be too thorough
If this story is doomed to be a tragedy
There is no earthly reason to give me beauty
Performing the coming together and parting

In a night without stars
I use my tears to attract you
Now that I can no longer say I love you
I can only laugh and cry
Let myself forget you from now on

In a night without stars
I’ll leave the past behind with you
If all of this has been a play
I want you to watch this play well
The only brokenhearted one is me

好听－许茹芸

Daily, My Thoughts 7:47 am

23th Apr Wed

morning … risse scored his own goal in last minute — 1-1. Not a score to lift up my downward feelings. Anyway, will NOT watch the second league.

going for my class and papers to mark.

I will bounce back, soon.

In the mean while …

please visit : http://www.borneochildaid.org/

WHY cant i get away from this rat-race and join some NGOs to do things close to my heart?

I hv deleted all the e-mail. Yup, some kept for >10 yrs … some from significant people, some jokes/comics, some forwarding pictures … everything! My inbox is empty. Perhaps, that is how i m feeling at the moment — empty. Empty doesnt mean lonely. My heart will be empty if i continue to follow the flow of the society surrounds me. Sorry, i dont think so they are stupid(as i will always spit-out) but i m being viewed as stupid. STUPID for not being to fit in the rat-race … STUPID for not be able to use my stupid high-iq into good use. STUPID as i refused to follow many un-written rules placed. STUPID, yes i m.

if stupidity is subjective, what else are not?

I have a dream … a goal. To provide enough for my family. I want to earn more than enough … so that, at one point of my life, i could LET GO of everything in my lives … detaching myself from all these dis-illussion of the modern world i m struggling to breathe.

I could only keep it close to my heart … it is calling. And the vibrations of the voice are getting claerer … i could feel that it is bursting. I need air to breathe. My surrounding is sucking away the little air that i needed … i m suffocating …

1.30pm

Sorry KK … even clown has his off day, i guess. Listening to the sentimental chinese songs … nice. Dont worry, of coz i m fine. Just want to take a break and mark my papers … i noticed that i DISLIKE paper-work very much. So, i will see how i could RUN away from stacks of my paper-loads. Hmm … wish i could recycle ALL the papers on my desk! Haha.

Ok … i smiled. Good. Meeting at 2pm, classes 4 - 6pm, then 7.30-9.30pm.

I m going thru a motion … wish i could stale the moment, take pictures of the moment and write a story based on that! LOL

2.45pm

MASISWA game is this weekend — badminton to begin this fri. Yes, KK … it is ~~fucked~~ screwed up … deleted on 24th April 9.30am …

曲終人散 - 張宇
曲︰張宇
詞︰十一郎

     妳讓他用戒指把妳套上的時候
     我察覺到妳臉上複雜的笑容
     那原本該是我　付予妳的承諾
     現在我只能隱身熱鬧中

   ＊我跟著所有人向妳祝賀的時候
     只有妳知道我多喝了幾杯酒
     我不能再看妳　多一眼都是痛
     即使知道暗地裡妳又回頭

   ＃我終於知道曲終人散的寂寞
     只有傷心人才有　你最後一身紅
     殘留在我眼中　我沒有再依戀的藉口

   ＋原來這就是曲終人散的寂寞
     我還想等妳什麼　妳緊緊拉住我衣袖
     又放開讓我走　這一次跟我徹底分手

重唱　＊,＃,＋,＃,＋

妳緊緊拉住我衣袖　又放開讓我走

Blackout in KK — Earth Day?

Last night, while driving back from tuition around 6.30pm, along Hilltop … suddenly all lights OUT! EARTH DAY?! Nah … not Malaysians. Not Sabahans. Not KK-ians. These people taken many things for granted. They demands clean water(and still buy thousands of dollars of filtering system to make sure their body out of bacteria-shit), they expect electricity to be there to be used(and waste) … they expect petrol stations to provide them subsidised petrol … zrrooom … they are driving the huge 4-WD(my Kancil is 4 wheels too, fyi). I m sad to realise i m staying in a surrounding of inconsiderate, uneducated society. I couldnt find anyone around who could have an intellectual conversation … talking about Earth Day and how WE have abused the natural resources. I hv too many un-educated people surround me that make me …. SAD. I am.

No one seems to care for Earth Day … not the older ones, surely not the ignorant young ones. NO ONE!

     編︰劉志宏

     別想你　忍不住我提醒自己
     傷了心　有些事也要過去
     心很痛　痛得不想再做我自己
     別回頭　情已去緣已盡

   ＊很想你　也不是因為失去你
     愛了你　用盡我全心全力
     一生情　只為這一次與你相遇
     情難了　難再續難再醒

   ＃人分飛　愛相隨　哪怕用一生去追
     我又怎麼能追得回　與你想慰
     我為你癡　為你累　風雨我都不後悔
     我又怎麼有路可退

＋曾經深情　你給了誰

     怕你孤單　怕你糊塗
     紅塵千山萬里路
     我可以朝朝暮暮

   ＊給你一條我的路
     你是我一生不停的腳步
     讓我走出一片天空
     讓你盡情飛舞　放心的追逐
     愛是漫長的旅途
     夢有快樂　夢有痛苦
     悲歡離合人間路
     我可以縫縫補補

   ＃提著昨日種種千辛萬苦
     向明天換一些　美滿和幸褔
     愛你夠不夠多　對你夠不夠好
     可以要求　不要不在乎

     是曾經無悔的風雨無阻
     擁有夠不夠多　夢得夠不夠好

Jaks 0.73, Ranhill 1.63, Liondiv 1.27 … appreciating as KLSE is back to business? Volume has increased gradually after its year-low. Kinstel is still on the move @ 1.37 at the moment and i read that spore investment co bought more than 5% of its stake! That is translated to be about 45million!

I dont know … i m still on side-line. Dont ask me why.

Many glc companies are attracting some investors and have been appreciating at fast rate too … MRCB, SCOMI, SCOMIMR, SAPCRES … i will opnly look into market again next month, after all my paper-work which bog me down …

     今日亂我心　多煩憂
     抽刀斷水水更流　舉杯消愁愁更愁
     明朝清風四飄流

   ＃由來只有新人笑　有誰聽到舊人哭
     愛情兩個字　好辛苦
     是要問一個明白　還是要裝作糊塗
     知多知少難知足

   ＋看似個鴛鴦蝴蝶　不應該的年代

     我要控制我自己
     不會讓誰看見我哭泣
     裝作漠不關心你　不願想起你
     怪自己沒勇氣

   ＊心痛得無法呼吸
     找不到你留下的痕跡
     眼睜睜的看著你　卻無能為力
     任你消失在世界的盡頭

   ＃找不到堅強的理由
     再也感覺不到你的溫柔
     告訴我星空在哪頭
     那裡是否有盡頭

Monday 21st Apr

EARTH DAY on 22nd April 2008.

Morning … my Maths paper exams right now. After this, i will hv 150sheets to mark! Arghh … iu couldnt be blamed if i take more coffee than i should this week, k?

I m lost … i dont know what to write now as too many things cloud-ing my mind. From the marking of papers, Scheme of Work, Visit from the Australian SAM’s Dr Tony … to trading, songs, Liverpool CL, bowling … i m simply LOST!

I think i hv my hands full of things i need to do. Sometimes, i feel of pausing … seeking into my heart. Pray … and let Lord be the guidance. I could claim that i could manage many of the things thrown to me … but is that what i really want? At times, i feel so frustrated with my surroundings and it seems that NO ONE understood what i m doing. No one to listen to my concern … thus, i prayed. I prayed yesterday morning … but i dont seem to hv the serenity that i look for.

I looked-into Regina(my ex-SC president … the first female president! Hats-off!) blog and found this nice cool song …

Forgive Me … by Group 1 crew. <— found it in youtube. Will see if i could download it?

Father, I’m going through some heavy things
It seems like this world ain’t getting any better
The more we try to get closer to You
The farther we run from Your throne

I’ve spent so many nights wonderin’ when will it end
When will the day come when happiness begins
I’m running the race but it seems too hard to win
I’m sick of mourning my stomach is throwing up in the morning

I’m calling for help and watching it melt away
My heart’s been put on display and put away
In many ways, many times I told myself it was ok
And anger was the price that was paid
While these faded dreams just screamed to bring them home

The burden was too heavy I kept running from the throne
I can’t take it any longer
I can taste my spirit hunger
God please help me get home

Chorus:
Lord though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I’m not scared cause You’re holding my breath
I only fear that I don’t have enough time left
To tell the world that there’s no time left, Lord please
Lord though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I’m not scared cause You’re holding my breath
I only fear that I don’t have enough time left
To tell the world that there’s no time left

I’ve come to terms that I’m burning both sides of the rope
And I’m hoping that self-control would kick in before I’m choking off
The sin that be destroying every fiber I got
I need the Lord in every way I’ll never make it I’m not
Going back to the way I was before Christ in my life
I couldn’t do it I would lose it there’s no point to the fight
And I’m writing this song, for the people who don’t belong
I pray away the pain you feel from all the things that went wrong
Inside a life that’s filled with anger and disappointment
Cause daddy treated you weaker than all of the other kids
It’s annoying and I feel for all of you who wanna give up
You feel stuck I feel the same way Lord help us stay up
You couldn’t pay me to abandon the idea of true hope
That I could make it through this life into a place where there’s no crying
I’m dying to find You with open arms when I go
Knowing You love me and You waiting to give rest to my soul

Lord I don’t know what I’m struggling for
There’s go to be more
Than this life I know
But still I’m here fighting to never give up
I find strength in Your love
And You will see me through

copied from http://www.xanga.com/Gina_Butterfly

Regina : Yeah … thanks for your encouragement. Ok, i shall run the 10k and challenge my old body. Target is to complete the 10k in below an hour. Hmm … I shall get the running shoe this week! Yeah!! Yeap, will start scuba-dive this year! Hehe.

Oh yes … unintentionally, i registered with xanga … http://www.xanga.com/cpteh. Hmm … i will be empty till i shift-webhome again. LOL. WOW!! I could upload a song at Xanga … can i do the same here using blogsome?

http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/s/stephanie_sun_yan_zi/yu_jian.html <— uploaded this song in my new xanga! Haha

I cant wait for the semester break again! Yeah … simply love holiday(who dont?!). I hv so many personal things to do …

My Tenants

I hv two new boys sharing a room for the past one month or so now … they are OK, except they smoke and throw the cig-butts everywhere they like, they play pc game from the moment they are back till dawn … etc etc. Otherwise, they are OK. It is always difficult to stay with ‘outsiders’ as we will always hv our own ways. Compromise is needed. Till the day i could afford to buy a place for my family to call …. HOME.

Quotes sent to my e-mail by Josephine. She is only person sending ALL the IS staff something personal in our official @institut-sinaran.edu.my e-mail. Nice …

Don’t waste your life in doubts and fears: spend yourself on the work before you, well assured that the right performance of this hour’s duties will be the best preparation for the hours or ages that follow it.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Knowing is not enough; we must apply.Willing is not enough; we must do.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Can’t Go On By: by Group 1 Crew

I can’t do it without You
I’ve tried so many times, and I’ve failed

Lord I really need You in my life,
Fall every time that You’re not in sight,
Can’t go on without Your love, I can’t go on…

Every time You arrive let my heart be open
Cause its You I put my hope in
You give me love, give me strength, and You give me courage
Even though I don’t deserve it
I can’t go on without You
I don’t believe that I’d even want to
All I really wanna see is me becoming more and more like You

Chorus:
Lord I really need You in my life
Fall every time that You’re not in sight
Can’t go on without your love, I can’t go on…
And I don’t wanna face this world alone
I don’t wanna do this on my own
Can’t go on without Your love, I can’t go on…

I see the need in my, life and I can’t deny
That You’re the reason I’m breathing I need You in my life
I’m on a new level and never will I be coming down
Lift me up when I’m feeling drowned inside the shame I found
And I believe what You said and You promised me
Now I constantly look for You to keep on watching me
I can’t go on without You, I don’t believe I’d ever want to
Never beyond You all I wanna see is me becoming like You

Lord I realize, can’t do it on my own
I need You close so You can help me make it through the storm
And when I fall I know, You’re there to pick me up
Brush me off and then You’re quick to bring me back inside Your love

I don’t know where to go now
I’m lost in this emotion
I’m giving You control now
Pull me up from the bottom of the ocean
I don’t know where to go now
I’m lost in this emotion
I’m giving You control now
You pull me up, pull me up when I’m going down

Yo, I could never let anything get between You and me
At times I’ve tried to drive solo, but I finished on "E"
My own anxiety blinded me that I just couldn’t see
That You were always there and not once did You every leave me
I learned the hard way but I’m glad I can now say I’m free
Through all the turmoil You have opened my eyes to see
The greater love that You give, and never ask a fee
Now I can say I can’t go on with out your love in me

Behind the Song:

"This song is honestly self-explanatory. It’s our hearts cry! There’s nothing that we’ve realized more than the message of this song. We’ve come to a place in our music where we acknowledge the necessity of our Savior in our music, and this is the kind of song that is birthed in that type of mentality. The truth of this message is made more real each time we sing this song." - Group 1 Crew

Trading : Jaks : 0.725, Ranhill 1.56 and LionDiv 1.28

I m very random … i dont know this group "Group 1 Crew". Very seldom that i will look into my students’ blog(too many of them, anyway). I dont listen to gospel(no offence, please) … but i do like hip-hop. But hey, i think i like this group’s songs! Cool … hehe.

Jay Chou-断了的弦

Jay’s -軌跡 <— like many of his sentimental hitz too. I really love singing this song. One of his best soft songs. It reflected my emotion at that moment when i was leaving Yie. I love the music, the melody(and violin) … and it goes inside you if the lyric seems to understand your situation at that moment … beautiful.

Translation:

How can I hide my sorrow?
The place I lost you
The scent of your hair
Scatters hastily
I already cannot follow it

Close my eyes
I can still see
The vestige of when you left
Under the moonlight
Always been searching for
That figure that I miss

If you said that break up is the starting point of pain
Then before the finish line
I am willing to love again
Want to say to you
The love I dare not say
Will there be someone who understands?

I will be staring blankly
Then forget you
Shortly after that I will tightly close my eyes
Thinking of which day
When there will be someone to be in your place
To make me not think about you anymore

I will be staring blankly
Then smile
Shortly after that I will tightly close my eyes
Think about it again
Your gentle face
Before I forget

The tears in my heart
Obscures my visual line
Soon you already cannot be seen

Noon … just came out from MathsDept meeting … 2 long hours talking nothing much. LOL. Main topic is the weak students who are taking further maths. Hmm … 27 students currently but expecting to be dropped to about 15 or so. The problem is that some students do not have good foundation in Maths but fortunately Chai/Leong are saying that this batch is hard-working. They HAVE to. Not a choice. I m more straight … i will ask those WEAK and LAZY students to DROP the subject directly, or change your brain! LOL.

Hey DD, you mana sudah? Where is my MOCHA?? Arrghh …

To fishyball : Please identify yourself. I m glad you enjoy my pages(tho i hv halau-ed many away! LOL) … tho i may NOT be the Mr TEH you see in the class. Haha … am i? Hmm … I do speak Malay with my Kadazan friends, malay/kadazan students or even with my good friend, Kia Kee(chinese married Kadazan). And i m proud of it la … LOL

TIFFANY — All This Time <— wow, glad i found this MV.

DIDDY ROCK By P.DIDDY(FT TIMBALAND, SHWANNA & TWISTA) <— a masterpiece of music!

(Diddy)
You gonna believe me now though
Tryin’ to get up in your
body your spirit take
your soul

(Chorus)
Come here girl
Let me creep in your world
Let me see the backside of your moon
No Vickies only the pearl
Let me take you to Indonesia
Where nobody can reach us
There’s no need to take your phone
‘Cause you far away from home
Baby let me be your tour guide
I’m your burger
You my fries

(Diddy)
Run through sets
Come through sets
Chicks hypnotize by my 1, 2 steps
I’m way too fresh
So complex
Niggas try to predict what
I’m gonna do next
Let’s get the party started
Far from a motherfuckin’ starving artist
Got something to prove
Don’t talk it, walk it
My niggas outside on them walkie talkies
Pop that trunk
Pass that dutch
Let’s get crunk
Baby don’t play dumb
Baby don’t say none
It’s on me
Louie 13 and the Cris on me
Dimes wall to wall in the VIP
The age don’t mean a thing
I ain’t G Ali
I bring them out with no ID
Them boys they bring them
out like I’m T.I.P.

(Chorus)
Come here girl
Let me creep in your world
Let me see the backside of your moon
No Vickies only the pearl
Let me take you to Indonesia
Where nobody can reach us
There’s no need to take your phone
‘Cause you far away from home
Baby let me be your tour guide
I’m your burger
You my fries

(Twista)
Ready for action when I
attack on the track
And I flat up a sac on
strap on the Cadillac and
the glove
Could call me when you
start shit with the
ambassador of New York and
the queen of the Chi
And I’m backing her up
Flow be ugly but it’s
a beautiful thing
Aluminum rings
Get money like I’m moving the thang
I got connects in every section
When I’m up in the hood
Chain looking so nasty all the
bitches going ughhh
Heard they wanna get me
But I got my guns cocked
I’m dirty riding 30
stuntin’ cock like Yung Joc
I’m the talk of the town
Lightin’ up 50 rounds
Meet me in a circle
everybody it’s goin down
Give you Hypnotiq to get you erotic
And then I take you somewhere exotic
Where we can blow chronic
A full clip for a lil drama
You know I ain’t a hoe
Snap yo bitch
Lil mama you know you wanna go

(Shawnna)
I’m from the city where nothing pretty
And everybody know
I spit a flow to get up with Diddy
And now we fi’nna blow
Niggas in the hood show me love
I’m the girl
Pimp tight let my mink game
down to the floor
Pardon me if I gotta be a boss bitch
I don’t give a fuck what it cost bitch
I floss big whips
I floss big chains
I talk big shit
‘Cause I’m of big thangs
Now what you wanna do
You betta not step
Now nigga move back
Let me catch my breath
Bring it, bring it back to the floor
So sick with an ass so fat
It’s Shawnna, Twist and Diddy
with Timb on the track
You know it gotta be tint
with 20’s on the ‘Llac
I see ‘em looking at me like what’s up
But I was hit low in the cut

(Chorus)

This event will be held on 12 OCT 2008 and will be the first Marathon in KK?! Interesting … i m too un-fit even for the half-rathon(21km), so i will opt for 10k. Hmm … that will be … 6 months to train? Should i take up this challenge after >10yrs of lay-off? Wow. I dont think so i could run 1k!! Haha … the last 10k event i participated was in 1997 Selangor Open(with Visha … we trained together). Not a bad time … i clocked 48:15 minutes(below 1 hour, you will be given a cert of merit).

So, Chong Peng … are you seriously thinking of this run? 10k? It is like running from here to Putatan, u know … arrrghhh … i hv taken my life easy, man. Should i push for it now? WHY should I? WHY NOT? Hmm …

Will consider it before making the commitment. Perhaps, i may even promote it to my students, see if anyone want to join and we could train together! Hmmm … that will be more fun, man. Hehe

End of this year … i want to scuba dive. My interest is being sparked by Dr Jag again … i think i hv the motivation to do it this year. Otherwise, i will always find excuses to postpone my desire … maybe i could catch sting-ray by their tail? Hehehe …

And i will have my 5th climb of Mt Kinabalu ~ perhaps with my Rotaract club members.

Thu 17th

morning … couldnt write anything today.

no internal energy at the moment, with a lot of paper-works to be done.

listen to your heart … by Roxette.

I know there’s something in
the wake of your smile.
I get a notion from the look
in your eyes, yea.
You’ve built a love but
that love falls apart.
Your little piece of
heaven turns too dark.

Listen to your heart
when he’s calling for you.
Listen to your heart
there’s nothing else you can do.
I don’t know where you’re going
and I don’t know why,
but listen to your heart
before you tell him goodbye.

Sometimes you wonder if this
fight is worthwhile.
The precious moments are all
lost in the tide, yea.
They’re swept away and
nothing is what is seems,
the feeling of belonging to your dreams.

Listen to your heart
when he’s calling for you.
Listen to your heart
there’s nothing else you can do.
I don’t know where you’re going
and I don’t know why,
but listen to your heart
before you tell him goodbye.

And there are voices
that want to be heard.
So much to mention
but you can’t find the words.
The scent of magic,
the beauty that’s been
when love was wilder than the wind.

Listen to your heart
when he’s calling for you.
Listen to your heart
there’s nothing else you can do.
I don’t know where you’re going
and I don’t know why,
but listen to your heart
before…
Listen to your heart
when he’s calling for you.
Listen to your heart
there’s nothing else you can do.
I don’t know where you’re going
and I don’t know why,
but listen to your heart
before…… you tell him goodbye

2pm

i m recovering … watched basketball game held at our school. Tshung Tsin easily whacked SM Putatan at that game.

Anyway, i hv to pull myself up as i still hv a looong day. After school, i will hv tuition from 330-6pm(Physics Form 5) and 730-930(Maths A-level). By 10pm, i shall be too tired to read …

I m Fading Like A Flower — tell me why, when i scream there’s no reply. When I reached out … there’s nothing to find, when i sleep i break down and cry …

In a time where the sun descends alone
I ran a long long way from home
To find a heart that’s made of stone

I will try, I just need a little time
To get your face right out of my mind
To see the world through different eyes

Every time I see you oh I try to hide away
But when we meet it seems I can’t let go
Every time you leave the room I feel I’m fading like a flower

Tell me why
When I scream there’s no reply
When I reach out there’s nothing to find
When I sleep I break down and cry
Cry, yeah

Every time I see you oh I try to hide away
But when we meet it seems I can’t let go
Every time you leave the room I feel I’m fading like a flower

Fading like a rose
Fading like a rose
Beaten by the storm
Talking to myself
Getting washed by the rain
It’s such a cold cold town
Oh, it’s a such cold town

Every time I see you oh I try to hide away
But when we meet it seems I can’t let go
Every time you leave the room I feel I’m fading like a flower

Spending my time … watching today gone by …

Whats the time?
Seems its already morning.
I see the sky, its so beautiful and blue.
The tvs on but the only thing showing
Is a picture of you.

Oh I get up and make myself some coffee.
I try to read a bit but the storys too thin.
I thank the lord above
Youre not here to see me in this shape Im in.

Spending my time,
Watching the days go by.
Feeling so small,
I stare at the wall,
Hoping that you think of me too.
Im spending my time.

I try to call but I dont know what to tell you.
I leave a kiss on your answering machine.
Oh help me please,
Is there someone who can make me
Wake up from this dream?

Spending my time,
Watching the days go by.
Feeling so small,
I stare at the wall,
Hoping that you are missing me too.
Im spending my time,
Watching the sun go down.
I fall asleep to the sound
Of tears of a clown,
A prayer gone blind.
Im spending my time

My friends keep telling me:
Hey, life will go on,
Time will make sure Ill get over you.
This silly game of love -
You play, you win only to lose.

Im spending my time,
Watching the days go by.
Feeling so small,
I stare at the wall,
Hoping that you think of me too.
Im spending my time.

Im spending my time,
Watching the sun go down.
I fall asleep to the sound
Of tears of a clown,
A prayer gone blind.
Im spending my time.

Crash! Boom! Bang! <— beautiful music … i love their music!!

My papa told me to stay out of trouble / when youve found your man, make sure hes for real!.

Ive learned that nothing really lasts forever / I sleep with the scars I wear that wont heal / they wont heal.

Cos every time I seem to fall in love / crash! boom! bang! / I find the heart but then I hit the wall / crash! boom! bang! / thats the call, thats the game and the pain stays the same.

Im walking down this empty road to nowhere / I pass by the houses and blocks I once knew.

My mama told me not to mess with sorrow / but I always did, and lord, I still do / Im still breaking the rules / I kick it up / I kick it down.

Cos every time I seem to fall in love / crash! boom! bang! / I find the heart but then I hit the wall / crash! boom! bang! / thats my real middle-name / it has always been the same / thats the
, thats the game and the pain stays the same.

I still feel the heat / slowly fallin from the sky / and the taste of the kissing / shattered by rain / comin tumblin from behind / and the wild holy war.

I kick it up / I kick it down / and every time I seem to fall in love / crash! boom! bang! / I find the roses dying on the floor / crash! boom! bang! / thats the tall, thats the game and the p
Tays the same / thats my real middle-name / it has always been the same.

Oh yea oh yea oh yea uh-huh / been the same, been the same / it has always been the same.

You don’t understand me <— i love singing their songs when i m emo … hmm …

Ive been up all night, youve been puttin up a fight.
Seems like nothin I say gets through.
How did this old bed fit a world between me and you.
We said goodnight but the silence was so thick
You could cut it with a knife.
Weve hit the wall again and theres nothin I can do.
Youre the one, yea, Ive put all my trust in your hands.
Cmon and look in my eyes, here I am, here I am

You dont understand me, my baby.
You dont seem to know that I need you so much.
You dont understand me, my feelings,
The reason Im breathin, my love

The mornin comes and youre reaching out for me
Just like everythings the same
And I let myself believe things are gonna change.
When you kiss my mouth and you hold my body close,
Do you wonder whos inside?
Maybe theres no way we could feel each others pain.
Tell me why it gets harder to know where I stand.
I guess loneliness found a new friend, here I am

You dont understand me…

You dont seem to get me, my baby.
You dont really see that I live for your touch.
You dont understand me, my dreams or the things I believe in, my love.
You dont understand me. you dont understand me. understand me.

I m vulnerable too …

Everywhere I look I see her smile / her absent-minded eyes / and she has kept me wondering for so long / how this thing could go wrong.

It seems to me that we are both the same / playing the same game / but as darkness falls this true love falls apart / into a riddle of her heart.

Shes so vulnerable, like china in my hands / shes so vulnerable and I dont understand / I could never hurt the one I love / shes all Ive got / but shes so vulnerable / oh so vulnerable.

Days like these no one should be alone / no heart should hide away / her touch is gently conquering my mind / theres nothing words can say.

Shes coloured all the secrets of my soul / Ive whispered all my dreams / but just as nighttime falls this vision falls apart / into a riddle of her heart, yea.

Shes so vulnerable, like china in my hands / shes so vulnerable and I dont understand / I could never hurt someone I love / shes all Ive got / but shes so vulnerable / oh so vulnerable.

Dont hide your eyes…

till tmr then.

16th Apr ~ Wed

morning … i m a little blurry as i hv been facing my notebook(and now, this pc) since 5.30am. I was looking into some alert stocks!

Trading

Yesterday market was up … and some selected counters SHOT-UP by 10-30%. Wow. Kinstel is one of them … so, i sold it off for a profit. I bought it last Friday for 1.22 … yesterday, i went up to 1.35(i sold at 1.34). Yup, that is how i m going to play now … cautiously pick a counter, wait a while and take-profit.

So, the first stock i bought last dec was ASTRO 3.30 … and sold for 3.58.

Then, I bought GPlus and lost some money there due to cut-lost. It is trading at the 1.35 range at the moment after pludged to 0.85 at one moment(from 1.80!!).

The stocks i m holding current are Ranhill(2.33), Jaks(1.42) and LionDiv(1.81). I bought it before election, and they have dropped drastically. At the moment, Ranhill is at 1.53, Jaks 0.675 and LionDiv at 1.29. All the counters I bought are popular and volume are at a high. In fact, VOLUME is my main criteria before i stalk any stocks.

I will look back into Scomi and Scomimr this week. WahSeong or Hiaptek interest me too. Perhaps Airasia or Astro too?

9.30am Market opens … Kinstel still moving up but i hv sold it. It is trading at 1.40 at the moment. Anyway, Jaks 0.685, Ranhill 1.54, LionDiv 1.31 …

Benjamin : Hmm … i do know you la. Are you on diet now as i hv asked you so? LOL. Our IT will hv a new person-in-charge. Thanks for your help, anyway. And do whatever you needed in OZ. Yeah … you are most welcome to drop me a line.

I LOST THE WHOLE PAGE I HAVE WRITTEN FOR THE ONE HOUR!! I HAVE POSTED IT AND IT DISAPPEARS AGAIN. BLOGSOME, PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. THANKS. I COULD NOT CHANGE THE FONT ACCORDING TO MY CHOICE.

Tommy Page - A Shoulder To Cry On

Life is full of lots of up and downs
But the distance feels further
When its headed for the ground
And theres nothing more painful
Then to let your feelings take
You down

Its so hard to know
The way you feel inside
When theres many thoughts
And feelings that you hide
But you might feel better
If you let me walk with you
By your side

Chorus:

And when you need
A shoulder to cry on
When you need
A friend to rely on
When the whole world is gone
You wont be alone
Ill be there
Ill be your shoulder to cry on
Ill be there
Ill be your friend to rely on
When the whole worlds gone
You wont be alone cause Ill be there

All of the times
When everything is wrong
And your feeling like
Theres no use going on
You cant give it up
Ill help you work it out
And carry on

Side by side
With you till the end
Ill always be the one
A shoulder to cry on continued

To firmly hold your hand
No matter what is said or done
Our love will always continue on

Chorus:

Everyone needs a shoulder to cry on
Everyone needs a friend to rely on
When the whole worlds gone, you wont be alone
cause Ill be there
Ill be your shoulder to cry on
Ill be there
Ill be the one to rely one
When the whole worlds gone, you wont be alone
cause Ill be there
And when the whole world is gone
Youll always have my shoulder to cry on

Another beautiful song i used to like very much … when you are young and in love? LOL

Paintings in my mind by Tommy Page

Picture this, you and me
Walking down a white sand beach
Were holding hands, the warm wind blow
Were all alone
All these dreams are fantasies
Theyre not real, not reality
And now I cry over you, nearly die over you
And all the bits and pieces of us that I try to find

Chorus:
Are only paintings in my mind
Faded memories of another place and time
We were happy as can be
You were loving me
And now its just an image that I find
Like the paintings in my mind

When you left, I fell apart
I was torn, you broke my heart
And now I cry over you, nearly die over you
And all the bits and pieces of us that I try to find

Impressions of the way it was
Long ago, somewhere back in time

Rick Astley - Never Gonna Give You Up <– a real classic. I was with my first ex-gf. Hehe

Especially for you by Kylie Minogue and Jason Donovan

This song reminds me of Anna of Penaga in Penang, my indian pen-pal. She is 3 yrs my junior. She likes Tiffinay a lot. Hmm …

Too many broken hearts by Jason Donovan. Haha … we were singing this song in The Mall when they were playing this song. And had a good laugh. What a nice memory! Thanks for the memory, Anna. Wherever you are, do good, ya.
Last night you talked about leaving,
I said I can’t let you go
It’s not emotional feeling
I need your body and soul

You give me one good reason to leave me
I’ll give you ten good reasons to stay
You’re the only one I believe in
I’ll be hurt; I’ll be hurt, if you walked away

(Chorus)

Too many broken hearts in the world
There’s too many dreams can be broken in two
Too many broken hearts in the world
So I won’t give up the fight for you

The world is full of lonely people
Never have and too love
Last night I tried to reach you
But somehow it wasn’t enough

So was it, can’t you wait any longer
I’ll give you all a lover should give
It ain’t my pride but my love that is stronger
I’ll be hurt; I’ll be hurt, if you walked away

(Repeat Chorus *2)

You give me one good reason to leave me
I’ll give you ten good reasons to stay
You’re the only one I believe in
I’ll be hurt; I’ll be hurt, if you walked away

(Repeat Chorus till fade

Average Malaysians IQ is 94? Interesting … IQ does not mean how many "A"s you scored in your exams, k? Most of our ministers are of average or below IQ 94, but they are ’street-smart’ enough to use their position to their benefits! You need to give credits to these people, you know. They could hv a huge bangalow(as large as a mosque!), with 1000 cars registered under someone’s name … and millions in their account without being traced! That is simply amazing … they are THAT good or is our GOV turn blind eyes to such situation?

Got to go home …

Today i shall concentrate my paper-work on SAM(South Australian Matriculation) Maths that i m teaching.

Things to do

1. LAN(MQA) documentation — tmr deadline

2. SAM Maths exams paper — next Mon exams

3. Scheme of work — from Jan till Apr as i never do it!

4. E-mail Australian SAM teacher ASAP

So, i shall off now to concentrate on my work.

Tonight, Tonight by The Smashing Pumpkins

Time is never time at all
You can never ever leave without leaving a piece of youth
And our lives are forever changed
We will never be the same
The more you change the less you feel

Believe, believe in me, believe
Believe that life can change
That youre not stuck in vain
Were not the same, were different tonight
Tonight, so bright
Tonight

And you know youre never sure
But youre sure you could be right
If you held yourself up to the light
And the embers never fade in your city by the lake
The place where you were born

Believe, believe in me, believe
Believe in the resolute urgency of now
And if you believe theres not a chance tonight
Tonight, so bright
Tonight

Well crucify the insincere tonight
Well make things right, well feel it all tonight
Well find a way to offer up the night tonight
The indescribable moments of your life tonight
The impossible is possible tonight
Believe in me as I believe in you, tonight

Peace is Possible - Rotary International

The Rotary Centers for International Studies in peace and conflict resolution program offers individuals the opportunity to pursue a master’s degree in international studies, sustainable development, peace studies, and conflict resolution at one of the seven Rotary Center university partners. Learn more at www.rotary.org.

RI —> Rotary KK —> Rotaract —> Interact Clubs

With Lim Keng Liat — our Malaysia’s ex-swimmer. He was invited by Jasmine to give his motivational talk on how he, against all odds, being the most successful swimmer for Malaysia. Yes, he is from Sandakan, Sabah.

With Jasmine Leong, our speaker. Four of the future "fire-flies"?

I went to Magellen to attending an interesting ‘talk’ by Jasmine Leong(ex-swimmer) regarding FIREFLY. YEah … those who serve above self for the benefit of others are like firefly — lighting others. One firefly could not do anything much BUT if thousands get together WILL light up the whole area! Interesting concept … and we were also being given a ‘quis’ to see what our characters are. D-I-S-C … i m obviously I = influential. And some of the characters listed are true … but i think i hv managed to mix all the 4-in-1 after years of ‘training’. LOL.

I was thinking of creating a blogspot for our RC = Rotaract Club and to ask the committee to maintain the pages. We could list out the events going on … sharing of experience etc etc. Will bring up this idea …

11am

Done with the exam paper — next will be the LAN document. Arrghh … i m two steps behind. LOL

Def Leppard - Two Steps Behind

http://www.defleppard.com/

I do not really a concert-goer … just a few but cant really recall at the moment. Def Leppard was one i went to with my so-called ’special’ one. They were in Shah Alam … wow … it was 1995 (or so?). Simply love this song …

Walk away if you want to.
Its ok, if you need to.
Well, you can run, but you can never hide
From the shadow thats creepin up beside you.

And, theres a magic runnin through your soul,
But you cant have it all.
(whatever you do)
Well, Ill be two steps behind you
(wherever you go)
And Ill be there to remind you
That it only takes a minute of your precious time
To turn around and Ill be two steps behind.

Yeah, yeah.
Take the time to think about it.
Just walk the line, you know you just cant fight it
And take a look around, youll see what you cant find,
Like the fire thats burnin up inside me.

Yeah, yeah.
Oh.
Yeah, baby.
Two steps behind
Oh, sugar,
Two steps behind.

Yeah … i like rock-bands. Rotary KK going to organise JAZZ! Arrghh … sorry, i m too young for that! LOL

Liverpool

Watched the match last night — 3-1. From the way they play, i know they will score. Half time 0-0 with many attacking chances. Gerrard scored 1st, then Torres scored his 30th goal of the season before Voronin who came in last 5 minutes to score the third. But, Blackburn managed to score a consolation goal in dying minutes.

I heard that MU beat the Gunners. With Everton drew on Sat, Liverpool SHOULD secure the 4th spot(their best this season). Now for the champion league vs Chelsea.

Metallica - Nothing Else Matters <— their BEST song, for me la

So close no matter how far
Couldn’t be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters
Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don’t just say
And nothing else matters
Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters
Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
But I know
So close no matter how far
Couldn’t be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
And nothing else matters
Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
But I know
Never opened myself this way
Life is ours, we live it our way
All these words I don’t just say
And nothing else matters
Trust I seek and I find in you
Every day for us something new
Open mind for a different view
And nothing else matters
Never cared for what they say
Never cared for games they play
Never cared for what they do
Never cared for what they know
And I know
So close no matter how far
Couldn’t be much more from the heart
Forever trusting who we are
No nothing else matters

2pm Rotaract

Email-ed that head of Dept. Perhaps, i should get in touch of the OZ SAM programme and go to Australia to teach there! Hmm … anyway, i m going to start the LAN documents. Many pressing paper-work to do … i simply dislike paper-works!! Perhaps that is why i m thinking of studying Marine-Biology to work with WWF. Or perhaps i should get in-touch with Rotary, and work with those so many causes that close to my heart.

My 6 committees considered as ‘lucky’ to have me as advisor! Haha. Blowing my own horn, as always. Haha. I m planning to be in touch with Likas Bay Rotaract Club so that these young leaders could JOIN and EXPERIENCE the work they are doing — I could not really ‘train’ them as my methods/ways simply NOT acceptable for normal human-brain. They are too NORMAL to me, and i might start to be critical. Hmm … anyway, perhaps except my president … others it is up to them if they wanted to learn anything from me. Otherwise, dont worry … the school will give you another CERT for decoration! Haha.

Sigh … talking about these stupidity, our school is VERY GOOD in producing CERTS. You involve in blood donation, recycling or litter-free campaign, or our school Open-Day, IS Night, English Week etc etc … they will give you certs, or at least they will USE the CERTS as a carrot to get participations! Haha. That is what our kids are collecting now —- more CERTS. Who cares if blood saves life or recycling saves environment! "Will they give me the carrot??" demands the donkeys. LOL

How are we going to teach our students about AWARENESS and be EDUCATED when the parents, teachers, right to the GOV are NOT??! Education begins at home …

Carrot or Threat?

This is one interesting point i was sharing with Mag this morning … many parents WILL give their kids CARROTS to get something done. IF you do XXX, I will buy you YYY. So, this kids are so used to this low-mentality education from home. Each time before they do ANYTHING, they will ASK(internally) — WHAT DO I GET FROM THERE? Hmm …

Some parents resort to THREAT … IF you dont do XXX, i will YYY. For example, if you dont finish your dinner, papa will not bring you home! That was the THREAT given by Mag’s bro-in-law(the rich UNEDUCATED businessman?) to his 1.5yr old daughter. Since young, kids being threaten(emotionally and mentally), HOW are they going to be EDUCATED? IF you drop my vase, I will break your arms! That was said by a mom who CLAIMED she loves her son the most! She said that in-front of me!

Look around you, you will find parenting in the easy way out — either give CARROTS or THREATHEN them. Scary, right? Look again at my students aged 17 - 20 yrs old. 80% of them are being taught THAT way. If they never know WHY we need to sing Negaraku, who are we to blame?

They dont even love learning … coming to school with excitement to LEARN KNOWLEDGE and applying in their lives! WOW!! That learning concept is too alien for uneducated Malaysian students!

Arrghh … time for more coffee and paperworks!!

Trading : All my counters slide down … i m losing money … i need a shoulder to cry on.

Why is Tommy Page when i need him now?

TEH

Morning … i m off soon to Magellan for the Rotaract/Interact gathering.

Anyway, i lazy to re-type my Friday blog. I think i hv to make an effort to SAVE my sent blogs before it vanished into the cyber-space. You could never know what will happen, right?

Since i hv saved some pixs, i just re-sent it again.(sigh)

Taken at Anfield

The Champion League’s trophy

A 5-star show by LIVERPOOL FOOTBALL CLUB(LFC). Liverpool used to be a very strong team in Europe in late 70s. I started to support LFC in 1981/82 when i was in form 2. The rest is history.

Upperstar

I brought Mag and Er to upperstar Damai last night for dinner as my tuition student(doc’s son Kabir) celebrating his b/day and cancelled the class. Food is OK … perhaps i do not really know how to appreciate so-called good food. I feel that food is to make us NOT hungry, and certain food is to make our body work? Something like that — so, i dont indulge in food. But, i do like the atmosphere and WHO you are eating with.

I like Fish and Co and we went for dinner there last weekend. It was my mom-in-law bday. At least she likes the food there(tho she ALWAYS hv negative things to complain about) and said thanks. Yup, it costed me 100 bucks plus. Hmm … wish i could just use the money to donate it away? Silly me … it is my m-i-l bday, for XXX sake. LOL

Trading

Jaks 0.70, Ranhill 1.56, LionDiv 1.29 and Kinsteel 1.21

I m losing about 5k from the 15k i placed in so far. Next buy? HSplant or Tenaga? Hmm …
