when life throws you lemons, you have 2 choices. Make a sour face or make a lemonade!
but I prefer to have a good cry and then I’ll make myself a lemonade teehee

Falling slowly, with you
I don’t know you, but I want you,
all the more for that,
words fall through and always fool me
and I can’t react
games that never amount to more than they’re meant will play themselves out
Take this sinking boat and point it home
We’ve still got time
Raise your hopeful voice, you had the choice
you’ve made it known……
glen hansard & marketa irglova
When I first heard this song I fell completely in love with it. That was back in 2009 and it was sung by Kris Allen(
my favourite Idol ever!)
my favourite Idol ever!) In any way whatsoever
the original version of this song can never be beaten. I still love Kris’s rendition of the song, though.
Glen Hansard(a band member of The Flames from Ireland), composer/singer wrote this song for the
musical film, Once.
Unfortunately I can’t post the video of the glen and marketa performing this duet =(
Go search it in Youtube! they have it there! I bet you’ll love it

I wish...
I do not have to return to Penang by mid- July for my final year project.
my classmates(some of 'em) would finally open their eyes and notice that there is a big world out there.
they(classmates) would start to realise that there is more to life than chemistry and the laboratory in the school of chemical sciences, USM.
the dream I had would never come true.
the other dream I had would come true.
I can continue to be ignorant about certain things in my life.
Susan will get better soon.
I could take a long, relaxing forest walk and then at the end of the trail, a large, secluded beach awaits me. There I stand watching the sun sinking below the horizon.

Although I'd always delete every single forwarded emails I receive, but Uncle Franks' will always be an exemption nevertheless.
I hate people sending me forwarded emails. despite my continuous effort of announcing publicly that I do not want my mailbox to be overloaded with trash mails, however people still continue to do so.
It just ticks me off whenever I get requests to forward emails(of someone who's ill) to people in my contacts and in return they'd get paid a few bobs by some random company or philanthropists.
Seriously???
Who would want to spent time tracking down the number of times the emails have been forwarded?? and then pay a couple of bobs over it????
I couldn't even bothered to open these emails. It will go straight into "junk" the moment I see them in my mailbox. call me cynic. hell yeah! in fact, I do think I'm getting more and more cynical these days.
however, the only person I give immunity to is my dear Uncle Frank. wanna know why? he's wise enough to only send me emails that will be beneficial for me.
a couple of days ago, he sent me an email and the subject was 10 things to learn from Japan. and I would like to share it with you.
1. THE CALM
Not a single visual of chest-beating or wild grief. Sorrow itself has been elevated.
2. THE DIGNITY
Disciplined queues for water and groceries. Not a rough word or a crude gesture.
3. THE ABILITY
The incredible architects, for instance. Buildings swayed but didn’t fall.
4. THE GRACE
People bought only what they needed for the present, so everybody could get something.
5. THE ORDER
No looting in shops. No honking and no overtaking on the roads. Just understanding.
6. THE SACRIFICE
Fifty workers stayed back to pump sea water in the N-reactors. How will they ever be repaid?
7. THE TENDERNESS
Restaurants cut prices. An unguarded ATM is left alone. The strong cared for the weak.
8. THE TRAINING
The old and the children, everyone knew exactly what to do. And they did just that.
9. THE MEDIA
They showed magnificent restraint in the bulletins. No silly reporters. Only calm reportage.
10. THE CONSCIENCE
When the power went off in a store, people put things back on the shelves and left quietly!
I took the liberty of highlighting a few values that I thought/hope Malaysia should/would practice in times of crisis. Well, will I be able to live to see that?
