恭喜发财。 Getting married soon :þ

See… see… see…
whenever Chinese New Year is coming,
my buddies must be asking the same question:
when can I get ang pow from you-ah?’… haiyo…
all I can do is, reply:
`getting married soon, get prepared your ang pow for me first-lah! Don’t wait, start saving $ now ’.
This is part of our life; this is Malaysian born-Chinese’s lifestyle, hehehe… common phrase; common greeting. We want to show loving care to each other, I un, 有心-有心 (yau-sum)。。。。。。

I had a very few family members’ reunion dinner this year; it’s great, anyway. (yummy… I love Chinese cuisine, especially my mommy’s recipe).

Serious, I’m a pure Chinese, I can count, I don’t have colour-blind, but I don’t know how to play all the gambling games (Mahjong, still learning, since 3 years ago), poker games lagi…(today play, tmrw forget), my brain jst simply dull for all sort of gambling games.

Thus, on every Chinese New Year days, I more enjoy eating CNY goodies rather than collecting $ (ang-pow & gambling). I suppose I have to fully indulge in CNY holiday mood & CNY goodies this whole week. Sleep! Sleep! Sleep! + Eat! Eat! Eat! (unproductive, but relaxing, once in a year, ok la).


My 3 fav most CNY food:
(1)Loh-Hon-Jai,
(2)Pineapple cookies &
(3)‘kuih-kapit’.

Bebe, I’m sorry to hear that... I knw this is the most distressful, and yet the most memorable CNY to you, take a good care of urslf & ur family, can’t wait to see you again. I miss you.

Last but not least, 老套啲
祝大家,犬年:

新年进步
步步高升
合家平安
恭喜发财

Mainstream

I’m kinda serious irritable & impatient person. Somehow, in spite of oneself, I’ll do somethg tat I’m not suppose to do, I nvr regret though. Impetuously get the sudden desire done isn’t bad, as long as I enjoy the journey and treasure up the experience I gained. Anyway, I do hav strong diligences tat lead me patiently towards my goal. It started since 2yrs ago, stl on-going so well.

In the middle of the night, a small conflict between me and one of the persons, who cares and loves me so much, lets jst name ’X’. X supports me all the way. Tonight, I finally realize, X is a spoiler, all the while, X treats me as a spoil child, and giving all the happiness, I want, regardless to the reason and results. I felt thankful but I’m not glad. How could you support without knowing the goal that I aim for? I knw wat I’m doin now, so do you.
I knw I’m doin somethg out of the mainstream that none of the ppl out thr could evr un. Look down at me/ praise/ support/ as u wish/ silly/ wasting time/……all kinda words that ppl tell me. Hmmm…these are all their assumptions. Stl remmbr, a buddy say; ASSUME=Ass+U+Me. So, nvr assume what ppl say, let them talk as they wish, direct or indirect meaning; only they could tell. It does not affect my mindset.

This linkage suddenly pops out;

Wat’s ur fav local TV programme? I dun hav. again I say I’m impatient. I can’t sit stilly to watch any TV program until end show. I did it for the 1st time 1mth ago, a local progrm called ‘Journey with Jason’, and the guest of that episode was Oh Ei Sun. He is such a gifted intellectual. He gets 3-bachelor degree before age of 19. Wow! Throughout the entire interview session, he talks about his success, failure, and thoughts…

He says: ‘if the way you act is out of the mainstream, it is hard for one to survive in M’sian society. ‘
It is true. As he mentions, Asian prefer to work in-group, but somehow, it’s difficult for one to remain humanity and honesty while working wt the ‘mainstream’ ppl. Sometime, you have to praise on what is not worth being praised; similarly, you have to critic on what u thk it’s above average in order to please someone (because of personnel matters). I think I get all his hidden meanings throughout the whole interview conversation. Why didn’t he join UMS before I left? It must be great to have a thoughtful lecturer. He reminded me of every precious word that Dr. Michael T. told me.

There are many routes to success.

  • Are you enthusing to ur job? Laziness makes some ‘mainstream ppl’ pass every routine 8 hours. Everything is ‘happy-go-lucky’. Lazy to change, lazy to think, lazy to challenge, lazy to learn, lazy to improve, gaining $ but losing intelligent.
  • Why should we keep the ‘stumbling block’ to narrow ourselves?
  • Why do we follow?
  • Why don’t we accept critics and improve ourselves? (Instead of making superficial assumptions abt other ppl?)

Pride makes us blindly lie to oneself.
