Extinction Of Patience
I was driving home yesterday and boom, the usual thing happened. Bad bad traffic jam. It was normal as I was just driving past BTS and stopped as the traffic came to a hold again. It was just a normal frust stuck in traffic day until I heard a band. “THAK”. I turned but I could not see anything, then the lady driving the kancil beside me wound down the window and adjusted her side mirror, we exchanged smile and I knew what had happened. Some maniac must have been cursed with the impatient devil passed by. I dunno, but I assumed he must be in a hurry or emergency or tummy ache or just plain impatient and inconsiderate. Hey at least slow down when you are going thru narrow passage like between our cars, you idiot.
Some people do not have the values instilled in them. I am not against people who are in hurry or what, but at least have the decency to be done it in proper manner. Come to think of it, patience is something that is slowly going into extinction. I do lose it sometime but I have learnt that patience is always the best time management tools we have. Don’t mistake patience with procrastination though!!!
Haven’t you experience that because of your lack in patience, the result differed from what it should be. Like a dish for example, if you start pouring stuff into the pan when the oil is not hot enuf, then the result is devastating. What I am trying to say is that, we often forget how important it is to wait and be patient. We seem to be rushing here and there, doing things fast and urgently. But did we think back if those that we have done is the right thing and was it the best thing to be done. We always say “it could have been done better if only I have the time”, but is it really that we did not have time, or we were just impatient and wanted to get over it… think bout it.
Patience is another chapter in our life we need to learn and again it’s another lesson that is not easy to learn. We all know we should be patient, but how many can stand up proudly and say I am a man/woman of great patience or I have learnt every thing the lesson patience has to offer.
I was not born an angel and therefore I can say that I was one of those devil that broke lose from hell. I had very low patience level but then as we move on in life, the level increases, like when u play final fantasy saga, you gain experience as you proceed through the game. I am still learning this lesson at this moment as I do occasionally lose myself to the devil within.
We should revive the nearly extinct “Patience” back to our life. Just thing if it is totally extinct… what would happen to us, our children, or children’s children. Or should we just leave it
What kind of world are we creating for our children…
A world with or without patience…

Runover Mouse
I was late today in starting my journey to work, coz I forgot to copy some files from my pc, but that is a long story…
It was like a normal battle field this morning, with cars battling to work. What caught mi attention as I approach the toll, was this tiny lil mouse or rat. Imagine this people, a rat bout the size of your knuckle, racing through the street which is bout 8 to 10 lanes. Imagine the feeling, the adrenaline rush, imagine you are the mouse. Imagine the havoc and atrocities… the lil being sped off but I was run over at the end of the road…
I know that you all would say, “it’s a rat/mouse”, “what’s there to it?”. Think bout it, don’t we all live like the mouse… don’t we all have experiences like the mouse…
Think bout it… in our daily life. Since we were born we have to deal with all the cute lil babies, family, relatives, friends and everyone else. They go like my baby said the 1st word, my baby started crawling, my baby started walking, and loads of other things.
Then it would be my baby started nursery, my baby started primary, my baby got 1st in class, my baby is obedient, I wan to be the best, I wan to be good and so forth. Now when it comes to the cruel working world, my baby is a doctor, a dentist, a lawyer, I wan to be successful, and so forth.
I think too many things I don’t even know what I have typed. Basically it’s the same, we are living like the mouse. We are racing here and there, climbing up ladders, flying up if possible, and may be dropping other down the ladder, pushing them off the cliff to get to the finish line. Do we actually stop and think about what we are doing now? Are we doing the right thing from the wrong thing? Are we hurting other people?
We often neglect those around us, petty things that we used to say “I can do that later/tomorrow/next week”. We tend to do that to our loved ones, family, friends and those we treasure… but we never did once stop and think, if we could not do that later/tomorrow/next week or even ever again. Then I guess we would do it now, at that moment. But does it have to come to that stage for us to realize the important things in our life. I am not saying that we should drop all things and go play, cuddle, spend time with them. What I am trying to express is that we do not live a complete or so to speak a balanced life. We should actually spend time with loved ones and at the same time have time to speed forward to success.
I am only human too, therefore I do make my shares of mistakes. But I try to stop and think before I act nowadays. I spend my weekends with my family now and I try to be there for those who needs me and even for those who does not need me, to make my presence felt. I am trying to make up for mistake I have done as well. With this I hope that my life will be more colorful and balanced.
STOP
THINK
LIVE A LIFE FULL OF JOY AND HAPPINESS RATHER THAN REGRETS

Stressed And Relieved
Got in the car, rev up the engine, and went on my way after work. I didn’t know why I was so hype up that day, may be it was because my I was practically freezing to death in the office. I was like wearing a jacket for crying out loud and still was freezing and my fingers were numb most of the time… curse you building integrated air con…
Well I was like swearing every one on the road that evening, I have actually suppressed and learnt to control myself but it was just not me that evening.. freaking not me…
But at least something later that evening made up for all the lack in self control and restored my self from that freak who took over the wheels a couple of hours earlier.
I went to this karaoke joint in Cheras… (yes it’s called NEWAY). I was there like 8 started singing until 11. I think singing does let me voice out my troubles and whatever I want to throw out. I was feeling like myself in no time.
I was actually still on my so called diet, there fore I didn’t really grab food from the buffet although it’s included. I only went out to the buffet counter once and I was so lucky at that moment they brought out the oysters, mmmmm, yum yum yum. I can never resist oysters and therefore I trailed behind the staff and took a plate waiting to grab some. But to my surprise there was this man who was more into oysters than me. He took a plate, as the staff lay the oysters 1 by 1 on the counter, this man was grabbing as he puts them down. Tsk tsk tsk!!!
He was like taking half of the serving at that time. Some people can really do it man, HELLO, think of other a bit next time ok. I took bout 5 pieces and left the counter with some lemon while he was still trying to grab lemons for his enormous feast of oysters. Nevertheless, I refrain myself from getting annoyed by the man and continued singing and be happy.
Overall the nite was fun, BTW, it was my 1st time singing in this branch and I could see some of the staffs are from BTS. Overall a very nice experience and definitely nearer to my house, but the jam was as usual “horrible”.
A good stress relief program, don’t you think so!!!

Road Rage (To Be)??
I just finish lunch and was walking back to the office when I heard a plaintiff cry….
“Na… Na… Na…. Gud golly miss molly…”
Nah, if you knew the lyrics above, (yes it’s a song, duh) then you must either like oldies or it got stuck in your head due to the long hours your mum and dad plays them in da house, da car, and everywhere else…
The conversation was like “HOW CAN YOU DRIVE LIKE THAT”, or from how I perceive in his mind “WTH, HOW DARE YOU HIT ME”. As I stretched my eyeball I could see this white guy shouting at the poor bus driver. I didn’t get to hear much from the bus driver though.
The man continued shouting and I could see the bus driver numb, speechless. Well he might not be so well verse in english to converse back with the man. He looked so helpless or may be he is one of the heroes of our time, avoiding conflict at all cost. At this time they were both still in the middle of the road, still debating or rather the man was showing how wrong the bus driver was…
In the eye of the law the bus is definitely “Salah” as he hit “literally” hit the man’s butt. I didn’t know the course in the beginning or the end, but at that moment I guess the buss driver was polite, coz I can see in his face, he was not the guy in the arguing mode.
I don’t know the rest of the story after that as I still have a life to live so I continued to my office and working. But from what I have seen, who says Malaysians are the best in hospitality and worst in driving. The shouting and moving body parts are proves that not only Malaysians, but even those who are driving in Malaysia are in the worst category.
I don’t deny that I myself do tend to drive ala F1 or Initial D sometimes, not that I’m a bad driver or neither do I wan to show off, but you know ler it’s kinda like stress or may be you know ler Teng Wan mah, Ying Lo. I think its stress and a lack of self control. But I have not got down and shouted at any one yet to date. I was hit before and I just drove by the side and started to discuss like the A Long civilized human beings lah.
I think stress is just one part and self control is another. Someone made this equation
Emotions = fn(V)
If you take emotion is a function of an variable and that variable is let say the weather, then you would be worst than jekyl and hyde. At least he becomes bad at nite or after drinking some concoction. But this will be another subject…
Are we labeled correctly in the eyes of the world???
Or are we wrongly labeled??
I guess we will need to look deep down to find the answer ourselves!!!
Are you looking for the answer???

BBQ Steamboat
It’s din din time again. First of all I would like to say sorry for the multiple delays I have cause as this dinner was suppose to happen like a mth ago. Sorry, sorry.
Too bad my phone was out of batt if not I would have took some pics. The dinner took place at this place called BBQ buffet steamboat or something like that. It’s located in Taman Shamelin. If you have been there before then it’s easy to find coz it’s opposite the Toyota service center and it has 2 giant prawns sitting at the entrance.
Well… like what the name suggest it’s a steamboat but with the addition of BBQ as one of the elements in it. I was curious at first when mi colleague went and BBQ the prawns, mantis prawns, chicken wings and lotsa other stuff. I went round the place and I found out that they are ample food to go round, not incredible in variety but enuff to keep your taste buds working the whole course of the dinner.
As a guy who seldom who was not allowed in the kitchen, I took prawns and sotong and also octopus. I did the teppanyaki style rite next to the BBQ grill. It was hot and definitely hardwork for it was kinda my first other than maggi and mee in my mug/cup.
Overall the experience was ok with a bit of cooking and frying. But I noted that some of the seafood was not really fresh from the ocean if you know what I mean. But for the price of 19.80 excluding drinks, what else can you ask for. You get your own self wrecking time where you cook your hearts out. You get waste time watching the food get cooked on the grill.
For those who wants to try some new style steamboat and BBQ fusion, this is the place.
BON APPETITE!!

“ROAD IS LIKE TIGER’S MOUTH”
I woke up today only to find that I din have enuff sleep as I was reading all these blog entries yesterday. But still I was waking up on time and stuff but when I hit the road this morning, it was like a culture shock. The normally not so congested road became suddenly overpopulated by cars. It’s like the start of the fasting month and the start of morning congestion too… does it really have a connection??
Then when I was bout to reach the office, I turned in the junction and suddenly this lady just crosses the road in front of me. She did not even bother to check if there were cars!!! WTH, I was late edi and I stopped rite just before hitting her and she still don’t know she is in the middle of the road.
“YOU THINK YOUR FATHER’S ROAD AH”….
I honked and she was startled and I think she still thinks she owns the road… hell man. Then she moved on and I continued my journey to the office.
Well I mean I don’t want to be mean or anything and definitely the honking was like how many umpteen of yrs ago. I seriously don’t remember honking any one any time recently before this morning as far as I can remember. I just don’t want to be caught in this kinda situation man just imagine…
You see it’s a hassle and its troublesome… and a living hell for me, me, me!!!!
I mean you should be alert, haven’t we all read in the papers, listen on the radio, saw on the TV, bout these tragic happenings involving not only adults, adolescents, children. It’s not that I value my life a lot more than other but I guess we should all be careful. When you are on the road, there’s danger everywhere, no matter if you are walking or driving or even gliding if you can.
Like what every one says but not practice
“MA LOU YU FU HAU”

Ignorance Is Bliss??
I was out for lunch at pudu today. The normal routine ler, lunch time, sick of food round the corner, drive out, park, find shop, sit, order, food come, eat, go back. But todays routine was broken with this cute lil fella sitting at mi side.
This cute lil cat just pop out of nowhere and sat there like a gud pet waiting for it’s owner. I was gonna ignore it coz normally it would just leave me alone it I ignored it long enough. But this guy did not give up. It stood there and waited and did the occasional tap on my thigh, (can u imagine tat), what a brave lil guy. I am not saying and please do not assume I am a softy, but when it start doing the tap, it kinda invoked something in me.
Don’t you get the feeling something, it’s like a sudden wake up call. You feel there is a connection or something. And definitely I would like people to help me in my times of trouble. So being a caring person that I am (did I say that out loud enuff) I fed the cute lil fella. It’s like eating away happily and it gave me a feeling of content. Difficult to explain but you will know it once you felt it. it took the food when we were leaving and left the scene, I guess to have it’s meal in a more quiet and serene place of its liking.
I guess it’s easy to be ignorant some times or may be all the time. But just think bout it, if you were the one being ignored, “HOW, WHAT” would you feel???
IGNORANCE IS BLISS??

“OMG, the terminals not working, I can’t do anything to change the config”
“I’m sending someone over now”
The wait was for 1 hour, what to do, evening on a Friday some more.
after the arrival and some checking & twisting & plugging in & out & a whole lotsa thing… the reply was “I can’t do anything”
Well I guess that’s the end of your life, faithful machine after 10+ yrs or service, a sentimental kinda thingee man…
Well that was the cause for me to leave the office late that nite. I rushed to midvalley to get my hair cut. Went in to ACut Above for an image makeover thingee. I was like shoulder length hair when I went in and came out with a gay cut kinda look…
The cutting was like close to 90 minutes man, that was one of the longest hair cut session I have had in my life… yada yada yada.
Actually what I want to say is they were professional and the really service the customers, (and I know coz I support customer service staffs in the off). I was the only one left in the place when they closed the gate and I was not even half done.
Don’t you get this feeling that you’re a pain in the @$$ when everyone is waiting for you. It’s like you are delaying everyone and coz of you everyone gets it.
THEY CAN’T GO HOME COZ OF ME…
I praise their professionalism as they were polite and definitely service with a smile lo, (though they might be still cursing me now for the delay, but I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt). Quickly after the cut I of coz apologize for the delay, of coz la, must make them feel a bit happy ma. If not the next time I thread in sure kena potong the head… (jes kidding, these guys & gals are real pros).
I guess I have to be more considerate next time so I don’t trouble other…
But don’t we just like to create trouble… esp with people we know…
Don’t we tend to be more tolerant with people we don’t know than our close ones
Don’t we tend to be more polite to strangers than people we know
Think bout it!!!

Don’t we tend to be more tolerant with people we don’t know than our close ones
Don’t we tend to be more polite to strangers than people we know
Think bout it!!!

Yesterday Once More
I was invited by a friend to his wedding yesterday, at first I was like “hhmmmm… mmmmmm”. The fact is that I heard he was like inviting the closest friends and all, but I have like seen him for only once in the past I don’t remember how many years. Even some who are closer to him than me was not invited.
I was still having last minute thought “should I go? Or should I not go?” I took up the courage and went ahead to the wedding dinner. The wedding was not one with a lot of people like most of us or those I have attended. I was a small and sweet kinda wedding dinner.
I was lazy so I actually went with my friend and his husband. It was like 1st time coz I normally will drive myself, but then yesterday I was just plain lazy, hai. When we reached there I saw some familiar faces on another table, I recognized them. They were my 5th former mates man… I went over and chat a while, for a few times during the course of the dinner. Then toward to end of it, I was like changed over to their table.
I was like going back memory lanes with them, they have changed so much from the last time I have seen them, or was it just me who forgot how they were. It’ s like more than 10 yrs since I have last seen or even chat with them…
Every one was doing well and we were chatting bout long lost times of yesteryears. All sort of story came flashing in my mind again. Thanks to my friend WK, if I remember correctly, he seems to have plotted the whole layout of the floor plan during our stay back in school. He was able to pinpoint every ones sitting location during those 2 yrs of fun learning days. He even has the latest news on our dear old school, who has retired and stuff like that.
Friends like YM, CM, CT, YK, TO, JN, LS, and me myself were like transported back through time, we laughed and we cheered the whole night like we were 17/18 once more. I know everyone has changed through the molding of time coz it’s been more than 10 yrs. But I guess those memoir of yesterday took over last night. We had fun, lotsa FUN. It was great to hear of those other few that once thread along with us during our journey through learning, the success they have, as well as the live they are living now.
I guess I was not the type that like keeping in touch, that is the reason why I am seeing them for the 1st time in years, but I have gotten their numbers this time as well as email. I guess I will start by communicating with them, so our friendship will not be washed out like the sands by the beach.
To the FRIENDSHIP we share man, let’s keep it together and of coz friends forever.

Healthy Budget??
The budget is out man….
I was talking to this burger man yesterday as I was waiting for his co partner to prepare my burger. I actually started the conversation and asked him is the budget out and he says yes. The 1st thing brought up was the price of cigarette!! He was saying “naik 13” and I was like the naïve boy who has not like bought ciggie for so long, asks what is the price now and he replied mi “enam setengah”. I was like “WHAT!!” 50% increment, I did not even get a 2% increment and here they are raising the prices like 50%.... this is bad man, real bad…
I went and bought the papers today and then I saw on the news that it was 13% increment and not the 50% I thought of yesterday nite!! 13% percent is gradually le, not so bad but then it’s going up and up. I guess if you are not really into ciggies then it’s high time to quit now as its gonna be getting expensive by the year man. So winn and all my other pals, it’s time to quit the ciggies man, and you can dump the $$ into drinking. Muaaahhahahaha….
Liquor also going up like 9%..... That is the killer for me man. So how’s my Friday nite’s gonna turn out now, I have to think of alternative man, is there anyone out there got jalan where can find cheap booze???
I guess the budget benefited most of the citizen in a way but it took most of the entertainment out of life, geeezzz. Think bout it, when u are celebrating something, birthday, victory, successful business, there is always liquor. When you are down, heartbroken, bankrupt, business dying, there is also liquor.
I guess I have to cut down on the passion & jungle as well as my favorite luna for the time being. May be resulting in cheap liquor in the house, may be, just may be I can make some cash out of it. Anyone into venture business, a open house bar, jes kidding man, don’t want to get in the way of the law.
I guess it was the best for the healthy, so I feel bad, am I not healthy…..
May be in a way, may be in a way…..
So “R U HEALTHY”….
