new year new beginnings..

hi, happy new year! well, looks like another year has left us and we're moving on to a new year... what a year 2009 was! lots of tragedies.... well, hopefully the year 2010 will be better for all with new beginnings and hopes for a brighter year ahead... let's keep our fingers crossed...

the end of the world?

hi, just watched 2012 in the big screen... fantastic and spectacular! it's a true hollywood extravaganza! the special effects are really beyond compare... we were warned... yes, we are but what are we going to do about it? and according to the film there's nothing we humans can do except maybe to start building a noah's ark... it seems the end of  the world has nothing to do with our human actions but a natural phenomena that will and can happen in the not too distant future.. the only thing we can do is hope that it does not happen... maybe i should start ordering parts in making a boat and also get a crash course on boat-building.... what do you think ?

this is it.......

well, with the showing of the docu movie of the late mj, i guess it's the final curtains we'll see the man in the mirror performing in front of an audience... it's indeed the final nail in the coffin that the greatest performer of all times has indeed left us.... only memories remain.... fare thee well, mj... you're indeed gone too soon..

2012?

well, doomsday is just around the corner... or is it? many astrologers, religions and fortune tellers have predicted 21 dec 2012 is the day of the Armageddon, the end of the world... so, what do you all think? will it happen as predicted or... ? what would you do if that was really the doomsday?

luck...?

just to share with all of you an incident where i recently dropped my keys somewhere along the way to town while riding on a bike. when i realised the loss, i quickly retraced my steps. i was frantically searching along the road i went earlier but still i couldn't find it. after a while and almost giving up hope, i decided to stop at a soya bean stall near my area, a stall which i've never stopped to drink before even though i was thirsty because i felt that the place is rather dusty and not suitable to have a drink stall. anyway, out of the blues i decided to stop there for a drink. guess what? as i was drinking, i looked up and there dangling right in front of me... my set of keys!!!! i told the lady that that was my set of keys and she said that she found it on the road and was dangling it in front of her stall in the hopes that the owner would see it. frankly, if i had not stopped there, i was have been still searching for my keys... up till now, i'm still wondering what made me stop there for a drink.. luck... ? help from above..? either way, i'm very thankful...

mottainai...

well, who can tell me what mottainai is ? if you know what it is, then good for you.. if not, open your eyes and see... then let me know... we should always do our part..

fear factor......

yes, it's that time of the year where all form 3 and 5 students would have that feeling of fear... these are major public exams in which their future depends on. these are first steps into a new direction for all of them. for those taking pmr, it'll decide whether they'll get into the proper streams in form 4 to continue on their quest to achieve their ambition. for the 5th formers, it'll decide where their next path in life will be laid out for them... to all of them, all the very best of luck and i'll pray that all of them will succeed in their endeavours. fear not, just do your best...
