Be Happy, Smile Always...

HAPPINESS is not a reward that can be achieved by just doing something...

HAPPINESS is some path that we choose for ourselves.

SMILE is not some action just to show what we are capable of doing...

SMILE as a habit, because we are gifted with this beautiful and blessed ability.

BE HAPPY & SMILE ALWAYS, truely from deep of our heart.

We will never know when it can enlighten a person's day.

Thaipusam 2008, the G-Side Effect...

Another joke of the day. Okay...it should be a few days ago punya....hehe.

In the Indian's recent annual festival, the Thaipusam, hundred thousands community Indian will turn-up at Batu Caves for prayers every year.

With visitors for the colourful event, the number can be up to over million.

However, there's seems something amiss and indifferent this year.

The number has gone down drastically to just merely a few tens thousand.

The MIC president (U-Noe-Who) said everything went on as usual and the turnout was about the same as last year.

“More than a million people are expected to be here but they will come at different times,” he added. (as reported in The Star)

"I have come to Thaipusam since I was 11 years old. I know the crowd. It is the same as before," he (U-Noe-Who) told reporters at Batu Caves. (as reported in Yahoo! Asia News)

But then again...

Stallholders and devotees lamented the small turnout and said ethnic Indians should work together to promote their cause.

"The crowd is normally double or triple this size. Now it's so small, so there is not so much of a great mood this time," said N. Kumaran, 41, a civil servant who has taken part in the festival for the past 14 years. (as reported in Yahoo! Asia News)

I wonder is the U-Noe-Who blind, or did he really go Batu Caves for Thaipusam since "he was 11 years old". So who to believe, the U-Noe-Who, or the public? You be the judge.

And here's another add-on joke before I close this topic.

In the latest protest by Coalition Against Inflation (Protes) against the rising prices of fuel and other essential items yesterday at KLCC, then again, the G-People denied permit for the gathering for whatever excuse they can come up with again.

Roadblocks were even started to set up as early as Friday...walao eh.

Fine, so as it went on.

And news for today... 56 held for attending illegal protest rally as reported in The Star.

Probably you'll see the headlines of the newspaper tomorrow saying the few of the 56 either being released over warnings, or detained for questions over something about trying to sabotage the Government right before the coming election.

Anyway, that's the news for tomorrow. As for today, well, there is apparently that somebody eat-full-full-nothing-do there really got nothing to do and this is what happened.

Malaysiakini journalist Syed Jamal Zahiid was detained for “asking too many questions”. According to Jamal, all he had asked was on what grounds were the police arresting people. (as reported in The Star)

Larf if you think it's funny. But don't sue me if you think it's not....~CheeRz~



ps.. I somehow think there's something related to this incident? What do you guys think? Hahaha...maybe me dumb dumb, pardon me. But I still don't think it's reported in the Malaysian media, is there? I don't know, let me know...

Mother Nature & Mankind

Well, of course those who knows me well enough will know where I am, what I'm doing here.

Anyway for those who doesn't, or any friendly visitors....hello and welcome. I'm in Laos, working as a Quantity Surveyor for the construction of a hydropower dam.

Yea..that's right, construction of a hydropower dam.

Mannn...isn't this a work of the destruction of our beloved Mother Nature?

Come to think of it, I kinda hate it lo.

Mother Nature granted for us a lovely planet to live, to survive.

But it's through destruction that we are showing our appreciation.

Somehow to think positively, we live our lifes by improving our day by day lifestyles for the next and future generations, right?

Sad to say, sometimes unavoidable sacrifices must be done in order for that to work out.

All we can do it try to minimise them.

However, by litering around certainly is not a good start and it certainly CAN BE avoided. We need more civilised people around to do that....probably.

But then again, some cultures just can't live healthily for the sake of Mankind even if we have got a perfect world to live in.

Yes, beer...alcohol.

Some cultures, days and nights, adults or kids as young as 7 years old, consume this mind-backward-thinking killer everyday.

Don't get me wrong. I do enjoy hanging out in pubs once a while, with limited drinks of course. But certainly not for breakfast, lunch and dinner as one of the must-have dish wad.

Siao eh...The more we drink, the shorter our lifespan will be.

I'm not directing this entry to anyone, but everyone of us should be self-conscious a bit all the time la. Alcohol should be consume within control.

Crap... I don't know what's the point of this blog anyway...wakaka. Whatever la. My conclusion...lets love our Mother Nature and Mankind as so they may last forever.

What's Your Stress Style?

Just another test from Tickle...

When life throws us a curveball, we all respond differently. How do you handle stress? Try this test to discover your personal stress style — from high-strung to mellow yellow — and learn how to sharpen your coping skills.

Here's the result...

--------------------------------------------------

Terence, you're a Buddha! (whoa....I am? Hahahaha)

You're a Buddha. Eyes half-closed, a slight smile playing on your lips — you accept even the most stressful situations with ease. Nothing seems to surprise you. In fact, you may even tell people that you anticipated the problems you encounter. Stress happens, you might say, so why fight it?Peacefulness takes you a long way toward handling stress, but there's more to it than the path of least resistance. Often, stress is a sign to take action, to make a change, or — at the very least — to get up and jump out of the way! Your placid pace could cause a bottleneck in the stress-processing plant, allowing problems to stick around much longer than necessary. Try moving a little faster the next time you're faced with a sticky situation, and see if you can't be cool and courageous at the same time.
