A bit of something

Everything tells me that I'm about to make a wrong decision (I don't know sooner or later), but making mistake is just a part of life. Perhaps I didn't have the courage to say 'yes' to life? 

I made my first mistake when I was thirteen years old and by that time I have realised that sometimes you get no second chance and that it's best to accept the gifts the world offers you. of course it's risky, but is the risk any greater than having such a great regret later in life? If I must be faithful to someone or something, then I have, first of all, to be faithful to myself. The little experience of life I have had has taught me that no one owns anything, that everything is an illusion and that applies to material as well as spiritual things.

Anyone who has lost something they taught was theirs forever (as has happened quite often enough to me already) finally comes to realise that nothing really belongs to them. And if nothing quite belongs to me, then there's no point wasting my time looking after things that aren't mine; it;s best to live as if today were the first (or last) day of my life.

Till then!

What You Should Never Do in Other Countries

(Just in case if you're planning a trip abroad... If not, don't bother okay? Hehe...)

Hi there folks! 

Here, i just want to share several rules that i have come a crossed in The World's Best Loved Magazine or also known as a Reader's Digest in which a rules to avoid offending the locals.

1) Don't smile at strangers in Russia

They'll see it as an intimate gesture, indicating a genuine affinity toward another person. If you don't know them, they might consider you insincere. (Well, it sounded bizarre right? But then, it does make sense too if someone you barely know just smile at you especially if it's a smirk kind of smile... Ugh!).

2) Don't use your left hand in India

The left hand is thought of as unclean in Indian culture, so always use your right hand to greet someone, exchange money, or pick up merchandise. (This is very common i guess, especially here in Malaysia. Being Asian, we did practice this in our daily life so nothing to ponder about. But... for left-handed, it's indeed something to ponder here! No offence...)

3) Don't wave your chopsticks around in China

It's like drumming with your knife and fork. (This is probably acceptable since yeah, who is in their right mind would wave a knife freely. Unless there's my enemy around and I'd love to... *a bit of a laugh*) 

4) Don't forget to say hello in France

'"Bonjour madame monsieur" should be the first words out of your mouth, otherwise you're subtly showing you feel the person is beneath you. (Such a small remarks or gestures do matter here, apparently.)

That's it for this entry... 

Till then!

It's Never Too Late

Again, Hi there anyone...?

So, basically this once in a year craze come again which obviously as you can read what i have inserted above is a book fair latest craze. Yeah... I'm talking about The Big Bad Wolf  Book Sale here. I know perhaps it's quite late for me to update about this thing but then again, who gives a toss anyway? *coughing*

At first, I thought that I can't stand a chance to go to this BBW to treat myself some books as for the last entry I did said that I misses not having enough book to read. And then I came to realized that I was wrong on both counts, literally because I managed to be there eventually even it's too little too late and for sure the credit goes to the BBW itself since this book fair was extended to another 5 days or so... (It's a yeayyy for me huh?) 

And this is it... to an avid reader who loves to curl up with a good books in hand (me included). This would the best place for you to browse your favourite books and whatnot. Even i didn't managed to browse for the book that I desired, but still it's worth the aching legs for having to stand for hours strolling around as I did bought some books even it's not really what I'm looking for. 

All in all, I'm glad that I could bought some books with an affordable price i would say... Plus, there's something to read or do or whatever to occupy me when I am alone, so I would never feel bored.

Anyways, a thought for this entry is...

Better three hours too soon than a minute too late. - William Shakespeare

Till then...!

An avid reader

"Destiny" is the force which some people believe controls the things that happen to you in your life.

So, this is one of the book that I particularly engaged on, not too long ago...!

A person's destiny is everything that happens to them during their life, including what will happen in the future, especially when it is considered to be controlled by something. Having said that, the first book by Louise Bagshawe I read was a Destiny. I started read it when I was 18 years old. It was over 376 pages and if I could recall, I read it in only three days... ( ha-ha! I was only kidding, can't really recall actually) *smirked*... This book is about the main character, an orphan Kate Fox, whose mother instilled in her that it was important to marry a rich man who could provide for her, and that beauty was a tool to get the security she wanted. This advice stays with Kate, as she navigates her way through the rich men of New York.

The main character Kate does indeed make good, but her success comes at a price. Full of glamour and drama, the book follows Kate's journey from the point where she was orphaned at age 16 into her 30's.

The heroine worked for me, I would say as she was sassy, determined and used everything she had to get ahead in life. Not to mention her courage was inspiring and I felt her pain. Although the story is a little predictable at times, and Kate can be a little too perfect. All in all it's enjoyable and worth the read.... (Just in case you're wondering). *grin*

P/S: I misses not having enough books currently.... 

Till then...! 

It is what it is...

Hi there, so here i am again literally just to keep this blog updated... (okay, that's unnecessary i know).


Hmmm... basically i'm just slouching around doing nothing and out of nowhere this thought came across. "What my life would be if i didn't end up in UPSI?" Pretty much one phrase that roll back the years i would say. Frankly speaking, this is my first time being in a University and let alone went for any boarding school back then... (It's pathetic, you don't say) *i wanted to laugh and weep all at once* haha! 

So here it goes... 

After i'm done with my you know, the secondary school and whatnot... I did applied for a place in institutions of tertiary education just like the normal human being did when they already had their results and such. But then in my case, all my efforts were to no avail... And after that i tried to went for a STPM which is the last option i would choose if i had a chance, but it didn't last for long as i drop off early like after 2 weeks before the class started. The reason huh...??? It's simple, i can't really get along well with the people there because (i'm quite choosy or you may say fussy if you want to) when it comes to the people i socialize with. Plus, i can't really cope with the environment there... You know, went for a school once again...! *massive sigh* 

Throughout that time, i went for an interview under Malaysia Airline System (MAS), as a Customer Services Agent (CSA). What is that??? Um, it's the same as a Flight Attendant (FA) if you did wonder... but, the difference is that FA is on air while the CSA just as a ground staff (the one who you usually see going back and forth in the Airport). And sadly, i have to turned down the offer (yeah, i nailed the interview and whatnot) because my mother didn't allowed me to.... She wanted me to further my study rather than being in a workforce and the fact that i went for an interview is that just for the sake of experience itself. Before long, i got the offer for an interview under Malaysia Airport Berhad (MABH) as an Aiport Lounge Ambassador, and for the same reason i had to turned down the offer. 

So here i am literally, stuck in UPSI the place that i have never think of i would end up with even in my wildest dream. But that's life is all about, full of bad and good surprises. All i'm saying, you only get one chance in life. So don't put things to one side and hope they will still be there later. 


Here's a quotes for thought, Till then...!

Let the words flowing....

 Hey there, folks...!

I have no idea what should i write in this post, to put it bluntly. As this is not something that i keen to do anyway, what's more i'm just a beginner here in this kind of field. So, do pardon any off tangent this entry is taking later and consider yourself being warned okay... haha! That being said, i would love to explore more about this thing though because somehow this might be a good medium to convey and share something thoughtful that can feeds our brain. Besides, i know i have so much to learn (or perhaps i have to) and i hope that we all can make it through. Fret not, there's always a first time for everything. Well, yeah, i guess that's all for now and will update more later... Till then...!
