Another Mid Year Gone


Greetings to all of you. It's the month of June in the year 2010 and it explains half a year gone and the other half of the year is starting. How have you all been? Has everything been going on smoothly? June is a new month for all of us and it is going to be a massively busy month for me. The list in the June program had been subsequently filled up & I do not know how am I going to cope with it. June, is also symbolizes a new semester had begun for me and I'm no longer a freshmen in the university but a final year student instead. One more year and I'm done with my degree qualifications. I'm looking forward for the day I graduate as too many thoughts and dreams in mind waiting to be fulfilled and achieved. I'm not those who hates to study and eagerly going out to work but my exact plan after the day I graduate shall be a small little secret that I keep it to myself and hopefully it's gonna be reveal when I'm doing it.

Looking back for the past fortnight, it was the semester break for our university. I do not enjoy the holiday given at all. Spent one week at home settling some bank stuffs and also sending my HTC for firmware upgrade and others. Spent the other week in KL for some applications in the UK embassy, doing some shopping and so-called enjoying my holiday. Results was announced and this had been the main root cause for me not enjoying my holiday before it was announced. Praise God that I had successfully pass all and although I did not achieve my target set, again, I still feel thankful that I can proceed to the final year in my university life. Holiday isn't necessary for me like I always tell my friends, I just wish life is to keep busy and keep going. I have this little thought in mind is that when people is in holiday will leads to their brain less active in thinking. This consequently will affect the sharpness of your thinking when you need your brain to think again. Well, this is my personal view point and had not been scientifically tested or proven though.

Another thing that I had been constantly doing is observing the fluctuation of the Asia Market and also Europe Market. The day the Greek debt crisis was revealed, and the Europe market was down until today it hasn't revived yet. Despite of the dropping of the exchange rates of Euro, British Pounds (GBP) was one of the highest exchange rate in FOREX for Malaysia used be at the rate of 7.00+ and it was dropped to the lowest index which is 4.61 on the 19th May 2010. Look at the gap between the two figures mentioned. Contradictorily, Asia market was not very much affected by the mess in Europe but gaining advantage on this matter. Looking at our very own country, Malaysia was also fluctuated a lot for the past 2 weeks. I, personally, think is a good sign of improvement and growth and it is definitely a benefit for us to grow our country in economic sense. May God bless Malaysia.

I'm not going to speak about what had happened for the past semester but maybe some pictures to help me do the talking. I randomly picked a few and post up here as recently I have not been taking any pictures because I did not bring the camera charger with me and the battery dies off. All these pictures were captured during presentations for the last semester. I haven't post particularly formal wear photos only and today is the first time, I supposed. Ha-ha!

The Journey of Life


Turning my table calendar to a new page reminds me it's stepping into the fifth month of 2010. First quarter of the year 2010 had actually past with days passed by. For my studies, it had came to an end for the semester & very soon I'll be sitting for final exam. I had been struggling a lot in handling all the emotional changes for all the pain that I underwent & had been doing well in overcoming them, I supposed. Thank God!

I constantly reviewing on my resolutions list that I had set on the end of year 2009. And, I feel relieved that I'm working on my resolutions and I must be proud to say I'm working well for the progress except for some lacking of Emotional Intelligence (EQ). For your information, people with high emotional intelligence tend to be more successful in life than those with lower Emotional Intelligence Quotient (EIQ) even if their Intelligent Quotient (IQ) is average only. Apparently, for people like me with low IQ got to depend on Emotional Intelligence to be successful in life. Therefore, never be discouraged if you are consider as low IQ person like I do.

Ironically, problems are something that we must faced as we journey along our life. It's a matter of choice: it is a thing to be solved and move ahead of the path. No one wouldn't want to stop half way while everyone is stepping forward & leaving you far behind. I spent a lot of time thinking how should I go about it when it's come to problem-solving as our education system do not pass you the knowledge of it and we have to figure it ourselves. The later you figure out, the more pain you went through, the more you will suffer & the more chances of being tripped along the path you are taking. Good luck, people! I've got mine by the way.

This semester I really did not do very well compare to all the previous ones. I cannot figure it out & I shall get it done in the semester which is on the middle of the month. This coming semester break is only half a month which make up 14 days. I've so much things to be planned on this 14 days. If you were thinking about holiday, trips, vacations and entertainment, I must say you are wrong. I've much more important things to be planned in this miserable 14 days. I'm expecting more challenges to come on the second quarter of the year 2010. Just because the year 2009 had been a fruitful one to me makes me presume everything will eventually go on well like the previous year. Oh! that's very bad, I must admit.

Let the bygone be bygone is indeed true but I must say I'm the person who will use my past as my key lessons to ensure that I do not repeat what I have did wrong. It may not be easy not to repeat your history but your past and your mistakes made who you are today and determine who you are in the future. Thus, NEVER really forget your past because my past gave me a lot of so-called life experience that I have gone through that people around me have not gone through. Be thankful that you are living in a comfort zone that is free from trouble but start worrying how are you going to deal with the things that coming to you from all times. Just because you are in a safe zone does not mean you should taking it for granted and do not challenge yourself to develop some knowledge in handle the problems in the future.

I'm about to stop here and I'm going to update again, REAL SOON.

Adios, people!

God Bless!

The Pain

Hello readers! It's been a while I had went hiatus in my own space in this cyber-world. I usually kept to a habit to blog at least twice per month on the beginning of the month and also the middle of the month, I broke the habit due to the massive workload that I underwent for the past one month. It was torturing but I think I've gone a little out of my mind.

The Pain - the title of my post with the picture attached. I'm suffering in pain that no one can understand the pain I'm undergoing.

Before I go any further, I would like to clarify that it was not the pain that I am feeling for my relationship. I'm having a blissful love life with my dear.

Pain is an unpleasant sensory & emotional experience that we human being feel whenever things do not go by the way we want it to be. I'm focusing more on the emotional & psychological side. Yes, you see people carrying a big smile where ever they go. You do not know is he undergoing some serious pain inside the heart. Neither you know how bad had he went through in the past. Each and everyone of us might filled with different kind of pain without us taking serious steps about it. Do you all really think life is full with only happiness? I knew the answer at a very young age & that makes me kind of pessimistic in the inner side.

For the previous one of a half month, it was disaster. Each and everything of what I have done didn't turn out well & that makes me extremely tough to pass all the hard times. I thought the beginning of the year was not well and it could somehow turn out better; it just went haywire in a way that is out of my expectations. There are people around who try to lend me a helping hand; sincere heartfelt gratitude to them. There are people who try to mess more things up in order to push me to even deeper to the ground, I also thank them because you people had made me stronger. Yes, it is indeed true that I would have respond to all the unpleasant circumstances in a very harsh way in the beginning, thank God I'm still able to control myself after that. I'm starting to be a little matured in handling all the objections, challenges and problems. Recently I read about a speech speaking about a very famous leader Mahatma Gandhi. It inspires me a lot.

This is the speech by Arun Gandhi, grandson of Mahatma Gandhi giving a speech on his late grandfather:

Ironically, if it hadn't been for racism and prejudice, we may not have a Gandhi. He may have been just another successful lawyer who had made a lot of money. But because of prejudice in South Africa, he was subjected to humiliation within a week of his arrival. He was thrown off a train because of the color of his skin, and it humiliated him so much that he sat on the platform of the station all night wondering what he could do to gain justice. His first response was one of anger. He was so angry that he wanted eye-for-eye justice. He wanted to respond violently to the people who humiliated him. But he stopped himself and said, "That's not right." It was not going to get him justice. It might have made him feel good for the moment, but it wasn't going to get him any justice.

The second response was to want to go back to India and live among his own people in dignity. He rules that out also. He said, "You can't run away from problems. You've got to stay and face the problems." And that's when the third response dawned on him-the response of nonviolent action. From that point onwards, he developed the philosophy of nonviolence and practiced it in his life as well as in his search for justice in South Africa. He ended up staying in that country for twenty-two years, and the he went and led the movement of India.

Last few days, it was terribly shitty for me & luckily it had passed temporary. Of course, I'm preparing there's more to come. I have thinking a lot lately exclusive of those mood-swing moments, I was relating everything together and thinking why I am here today at where I'm standing. I walked, I tripped, I fell, and now I have risen. I'm not declaring war to those who had pushed me down but I'm gonna say to everyone that even I have eye-for-eye justice, it will only made me feel good at that moment. Thus, once again credit to the speech above that makes me aware of no one can run away from problem and what is important now is how to solve the problem & look forward instead of doing unproductive things which are already happened and is out of our control. Therefore, I want all of you to be acknowledged that:

I'm evolving! :)

That's all for today, people. Cheers! I will update more, I hope. *Finger Crossed*

God Bless!

P/S: I would like to advice those who tried to push me deeper & make me fall to the subterranean of the earth, I believe in Karma. Do you? ;-)

Show Off

Hello world! I'm supposed to have a good review on the phones that are here but then once again, I apologized I'm currently not in the mood to do whatever review or so on although I have actually so many different types of titles like: Apple iPhone vs HTC HD2, Blackberry Bold 9000 kicks Apple iPhone 3G(asS), HTC vs Apple vs Blackberry and etc etc nice title post. Due to the recently overwhelming life that I'm currently undergoing, I'm just drop a few lines here and some pictures here & I'm off to continue my busy life.


WARNING: If you will be offended by my showing-off post, then please kindly press ALT+F4.

So, if you followed my blog, I did mention about the newly launch HTC HD2 in one of the magazines at my recent post. And I said perhaps I should perhaps persuade my daddy to get it since I just got my HTC Touch Diamond2 not long ago; and yes, I did it & he got it. :) What a nice daddy I have.

Frankly speaking, why would I want to blog about this is actually because many people around me asking me why don't I get an iPhone and why choose over Blackberry or other PDA (I used to have Dopod D818). The reason is simple: who on earth tell you I don't have an iPhone? hahaha! and also one more thing out of 10 people, 9 of them use it to show off. I use phone for practicability & my blackberry serve me well 24 hours for internet browsing and push email which others don't have. I used HTC Touch Diamond 2 because I need to run all my university's lecture slides which is in power point format that iPhone need to have a lot of hassle installing the apps to use it. Neglecting the part that my HTC TD2 can use GPS with Garmin installed. I have list a lot of points why do Blackberry & Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) wins my heart over iPhone.

Sometimes, I just hate people showing off their iPhone (Elaine, I'm not saying you although you recently got yourself one :p). I have met people looking down on others with just because they have one super duper superb iPhone in hand? Oh come on, shame on them. We don't use gadgets to show off ok? You use the function helping your daily life and not telling others hey! I'm rich and please kneel in front of me. I would tell them: FUCK OFF, TWERP!

No offense to people who are using iPhone but what I'm kinda pissed off are those who are SHOWING OFF that they have an iPhone only.

Nothing to be cool of because all of us are the same. FYI, United States President Barack Obama uses Blackberry Bold 9000, which I'm currently using as well. So? Can I also show off? Darn.

I should stop here as getting mood swing. Check out the pictures.
