How are we shaped?

Lately, i've been putting some thought onto how we all are shaped.
How we react, how we do things, where we are in life....

I think some of us, just follow what other people says.
Some just go with the flow.
Some doesnt even bother about it at all.
Some just follow what their daddy and mummy says...
and some just says we are to just follow....

But i think what is important, we be who we are.
To be truthful to ourselves.
To be honest to ourselves
and to not hide a mask with anyone we are with
i Think that way we will be much more happier and be able to express ourselves better and
Life will be more fulfilling. :)

Random thoughts on FEELINGS

Feelings are energies that can be transferred.

I realize this, when someone is happy, we somehow are happy when we are around them.

When someone's sad, we can feel that sadness as well.

So share feelings of joy with as many people as you can.

Always good to do so.

Putting a smile to someone is also a good thing. So try to do it as much as you can.

Thats why its good to spread love that hate.

Start noticing how others feel and see if it affects you or not?

Cheers

A new year in 2010

Lol, its been too long since i posted :P
Well, for updates, things i guess have been going quite ok.
This year 2010, feels like its going to be an exciting year ahead.
Lots of things happening in terms of work , life, and almost all aspect of my life.

Well im not saying its bad, but i guess its challenges i have to face in order to get valuable experience for the future.

So far, whats funny is that, somethings that i did, felt like i did it for a very long time but in actual fact its probably just 1 week. Weird huh? Its like time slowed down for me to experience all these excitements in life. hehe

Well, catch up soon again.
:)

Another new look???

Ok, to start something fresh after a long time of not-blogging, let me share something unusual i did, and i actually liked it :P




Yeah, I helped a friend to do a short video of some CHINA-MAN. And i actually liked my look with goatie and mustache. And its also fun doing this. hehe, maybe i should take up acting.
ho ho ho

Time and realization!

Been awhile since i've actually posted here. :P
Ever since the start of February, i've been really doing things that is up to my neck.
Well, i think its good experience for me on this and without realizing it, a month flew by just like that.

There's many things that I did over the past few weeks and many discoveries.
I'll keep it short. Few things i realize in life:

1. Discrimination is everywhere!
I know its sad for me to say this, but i didnt realize it to happen as in a religious place that i've been going. Sorry no names will be named. But it just suddenly knocked me in the head that if this happens even in religious area, what more in the outside world?

2. Politics and politics!
Politics is like never ending. Always around us and never far away from us. It happens as long as there is people involved. Sad to say this but I also realize that NGO's that support a certain niche group of needy people also have their own set of politics involved. I mean these organizations are setup to support these NICHE goup of people but instead each have their own agenda and their own needs to fulfill. So if this happens in NGO / organization that supports the needy, what more in company or government organization?

3. Seperation??
Humans like to be together with their own kind. People who have the same type of believes. But if there is so much seperation on this, we start to misunderstand each other. How can we understand each other when there is so much seperation in the first place. Go to a mamak store, how often do we see a group of people from different race sitting together? A friend pointed this out to me while i was drinking at a mamak and for a short moment i was stunned...

Ok, thats the big major realization I have recently.
Oh well, life must still go on, but I think we must not stop believing what we feel strongly about...

A new Family Member

Nearing towards Chinese New Year, a new baby is born in my family. My eldest bro got a second baby. :)
And the baby is a BOY! Yay! Parents is about it, cause of the whole chinese thing where the family name can go and etc. Well, im happy cause I love babies.
His name is Ethan Boey Shern Ming (haven't registered yet, so my bro might change).
So here's his picture. :)



Oh yeah, i havent introduced my first niece yet. Her name is Amalyn Boey Ryok Xin. Well now i have a niece and a nephew. Oh, im feeling really old now. But its great to see them growing up. Wonder how's it like if one day i have my own kids. Hmm.....

Conflict and Harmony

This will be my first post for year 2009.

Well, new year celebration was great. Had a few drinks and celebrated it at Duta Vista. Got a bit tipsy, but overall it was fun. I met a few people during the party and also along the way for this year. Some that I've met, felt like we've known each other for years, like we can really connect.

But I've also met people whom I've just met, and I wish to avoid that person as much as I can. Not that I hate that person, but just that, I feel that we just don't click, or just dont mix. Weird feelings, but I guess its what causes humans to gather and click or fight.

I guess, we all have some preference in friends, colleagues, and etc. I think this is what you call the law of attraction. Those that are in tuned with our thoughts, mind and actions, then i guess we can click. Those that do not match our wavelength, then we just don't mix well together.

Well, anyway, the next holiday is coming up. Chinese New Year! Woah, cant wait for that as well. :)

"Attract the positive and avoid the negative..."

End of 2008!

Time, sure flies. I think this year flew by tremendously fast for me. Without knowing it, we've already reach the end of the year. Many things happened this year for me and its been really an adventurous journey. Im sure this is the same for all of us.

Well, what I want to say is that, I'm thankful that we are all still around, and glad i've traveled this path. And I hope that it will be a better year in 2009 for all of us as well.

Have a wonderful new year and enjoy yourself. :)
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

A great dog story

Recently just read this forward email, and it really touched my heart. Thought of just sharing with you guys:


Anyone who has pets will really like this. You'll like it even if you don't and you may even decide you need one!

Mary and her husband Jim had a dog named 'Lucky.' Lucky was a real character. Whenever Mary and Jim had company come for a weekend visit they would warn their friends to not leave their luggage open because Lucky would help himself to whatever struck his fancy. Inevitably, someone would forget and something would come up missing.

Mary or Jim would go to Lucky's toy box in the basement and there the treasure would be, amid all of Lucky's other favorite toys. Lucky always stashed his finds in his toy box and he was very particular that his toys stay in the box. ;

It hap pened that Mary found out she had breast cancer. Something told her she was going to die of this disease....in fact ,she was just sure it was fatal.

She scheduled the double mastectomy, fear riding her shoulders. The night before she was to go to the hospital she cuddled with Lucky. A thought struck her...what would happen to Lucky? Although the three-year-old dog liked Jim, he was Mary's dog through and through. If I die, Lucky will be abandoned, Mary thought. He won't understand that I didn't want to leave him. The thought made her sadder than thinking of her own death.

The double mastectomy was harder on Mary than her doctors had anticipated and Mary was hospitalized for over two weeks. Jim took Lucky for his evening walk faithfully, but the little dog just drooped, whining and miserable.

Finally the day came for Mary to leave the hospital. When she arrived home , Mary was so exhausted she couldn't even make it up the steps to her bedroom. Jim made his wife comfortable on the couch and left her to nap. Lucky stood watching Mary but he didn't come to her when she called. It made Mary sad but sleep soon overcame her and she dozed.

When Mary woke for a second she couldn't understand what was wrong. She couldn't move her head and her body felt heavy and hot. But panic soon gave way to laughter when Mary realized the problem. She was covered, literally blanketed, with every treasure Lucky owned! While she had slept, the sorrowing dog had made trip after trip to the basement bringing his beloved mistress all his favorite things in life. He had covered her with his love.

Mary forgot about dying. Instead she and Lucky began living again, walking further and further together every day. It's been 12 years now and Mary is still cancer-free. Lucky? He still steals treasures and stashes them in his toy box but Mary remains his greatest treasure.

Remember....live every day to the fullest. Each minute is a blessing from God. And never forget....the people who make a difference in our lives are not the ones with the most credentials, the most money, or the most awards They are the ones that care for us.

If you see someone without a smile today give them one of yours! Live simply. Love seriously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest to God

Dear God, I pray for the cure of cancer. Amen

All you are asked to do is keep this circulating Even if it's to one more person.
In memory of anyone you know that has been struck down by cancer or is still living with it

Presentation

Today, was quite an interesting day. Went over to Cyberjaya to do a presentation to some bosses. Yes, im trying to sell an idea to work. The name of the project is called 'Adaptiva' corney as it sounds, but i think its a cool name for bad times like this.

The idea is suppose to help Malaysians up and improve their business and also helping them out to market their products. Will let you all know and update you in detail if my project got through.

But presenting to bosses (4 of them) can be STRESSFUL. Well dont know if i get it or not, but i know i did my best. Most important is that, I tried. :)
Lucky did some early preparations for this project, loads of research, documentation, business proposal, sample datas, competitive evaluation and so on. Phew, quite stressful. But finally i finished my presentation today. Yay!

Anyway, anyone out there who have a new idea, dont give up on it, and GROW! TIme for my short break now. Good night. Zzzz....

Knowing my own language...

Well, i know i need to know at least my own language first before i learn other languages. Sigh, but im doing it the other way round.

Last 2 days, I send my friend off to the airport. Not that my friend is leaving for good, but just going off for a holiday. Once we're done, (I was with another friend) we went to get ourselves a drink from some 7-11 look alike store. Its run by indians, and when we make our payment, they guy said the price (RM4.80) in 'Mandarin'.

We're stunned for a moment, and wondering what he said. My friend blurted out saying, "Sorry i dont understand, we're bananas". Lucky i took mandarin(basic) before and realize that is RM4.80. Anyway, we paid him RM4.80 and he said thank you in 'Mandarin' again. Felt abit mocked actually. hehe

But yes, i think its a sign already. I will set that as my goal for next year. Early new year resolution! 'Able to communicate in mandarin by end of 2009'.

I believe its important as whatever race you are, learn at least your own language. Lucky i know cantonese, but thats not enough. Mandaran is very important as well.
Oh boy, a good year of challenge coming ahead. :P wish me luck.

Love and Relationship

Recently, quite a number of my friends have been sharing with me about their love problems, relationship problems, their success in relationships, and etc. It's pretty depressing for me to hear various problems and various stuffs that is happening around.

Anyway, some of the problems are the person in the relationship who loves each other decides to let the person go because the person decides to follow her desire instead of her love. Urgh, so sad to see that situation to happen. Sometimes we need to learn to follow our heart not just follow our intellect. Sure, everyone wants a perfect love, but is that achievable? I call that being NAIVE!

The next problem is that, sometimes we have people with a few relationships. Yes, cheating on your loved ones. Sigh, i don't know how some people can manage it, but to me its pretty sad as well to see the person being like this. A person with too many relationship will only fall into trouble. Thats my thought, but just that this person will truly find his true love and be loyal to iit.

There are some in a relationship that finds it hard to be truthful to their loved ones. I think when you lie to that person, you are lying to yourself. Why must one be limited and controlled by their loved ones. The relationship should be open and they both have their freedom to do what they want. What matters is having the trust and understanding of each other, and not to cheat on each other.

Anyway, thats my story for now. If i ever get into one, i'll tell my part on how things work out. Just hoping for the best for all my friends.

New look

Finally, after 2-3 weeks of hardwork, i have finished a proposal (project) to the government. Man, its alot of documentation, alot of nonsence writing. Feel like doing an assignment in school, just that its in greater scale. Trying to get goverment support recently . Oh well, now its all in the hands of God or the person evaluating our proposal. :P

I've also acquired a new look as well. Not doing any plastic surgery lah. Just wanted to try something out. Thought its time to do something for a change and yeah, finally i've done it.
Scroll down below to see how I look now. :P and do leave some comments. hehe

Friends Wedding

Bride before walking in

I think lately i've been involve in quite a few things. Will update in a bit.
But anyway, one of them that im busy with is my friend's wedding!
:)

I was the designated driver.
Quite interesting, actually the couples are deaf and so all the event that took place is all using sign language. When they declare their love in Church, or the wedding dinner. Really quite an eye opener.

Church wedding group

Oh, and i did a toast with them in Sign Language. You know the Yum Seng Style. Show you guys one day when we meet up.

Wedding dinner night

Cute?

I wonder when is my time. :P
Theres a few more friend's wedding coming next year. Im looking forward for that as well.


"Love is patient and is kind; love doesn't envy. Love doesn't brag, is not proud,

doesn't behave itself inappropriately, doesn't seek its own way, is not provoked, takes no account of evil;

doesn't rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth;

bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

But now faith, hope, and love remain--these three. The greatest of these is love. "

Wanted Ducks?

Recently digi have some funny contest. And i decide to take part in it.
:P
Check it out:

Feeling Sick...

Urgh, being sick is not a good thing.
I have food poisoning over the past few days. Yuck, not a pleasant thing at all.
Guess, i wasnt careful at what i eat and I end up sleeping in the whole day at home.

Well, good thing is i get some good rest i guess. :P
But bad thing is i feel so immobilized.
Oh well, guess you cant have both.

Anyway, during my sick time off, i was thinking abit,
How some people have it all, and some people just cant be please no matter what they get.
Its weird some people have everything, and they feel that its still not enough, some people have so little, and their so happy about their life. Guess its how we all look at things.

Some friends are totally obsessed with girls, some with money, some on greed, and so on. But is this all true happiness for us when we really get it?
Hmm...i dont know, its not me to judge or feel happy for them, but i think there more to it that just the materialistic stuffs in this world. I mean its fine if we reward ourselves sometimes, but dont go overboard on it.

Well, i dont know the answer, guess every individual will have their own, but for me i think what is most important is to fulfill what our purpose is when we are here in this world. And of course we have a choice to decide whether we want to follow that path or not.

Anyway, I'll be going back to bed again, still feeling abit unwell...

Interesting meeting...

Yesterday, i went over to KL Sentral for meeting + training. Its like any normal training and meeting, but the interesting part was that I felt like a glutton. Im surprised that this meeting + training provided by the government actually have morning tea break, lunch and evening tea break.

Wow, all buffet. It's good to have some breaks in between trainings or meetings, i believe this helps to refresh ourselves. Sometimes when we sit in for a training for too long its hard for us to absorb any more information if it drags too long. Especially in the afternoon, its usually one of the most sleepiest time ever...

Usually how i keep myself awake is by asking questions and answering questions. That way when we talk and when people start to focus on us, our mind suddenly wakes up and we don't feel that sleepy anymore when we don't want to be embarrass ourselves. Of course ask relevant question and not asking stupid questions, if not then we will be annoying people instead...

The training and meeting ended up around in the evening before the jam starts and im quite happy about it. The next time anything related with governent meeting or training i think i'll be looking forward for it. :P Yummy yummy...

Going old fashion...

Yesterday, it was my friend's birthday. :P Havent got the photos uploaded yet, but i decide to post up on my gift that i got for my friend. I was thinking hard and was wondering what to really get for him. And after awhile, i thought that i should get him something really old fashioned.

As technology advanced and all and as we all grow older, we all tend to forget that sometimes the old fashioned style present is one of the best presents you could get for someone. And its much more meaningful.

So what did i get him? I got him a BIRTHDAY CARD with meaningful words that is written by me. :P Not that im a cheap guy or something, but i think sometimes its much more meaningful to get something more old fashioned where there is much more meaning and more feeling is put into it when we give it out.

Well, i just hope he liked it and I think sometimes its good to go back once in awhile to get some old fashioned presents. :)

"Dont forget the old ways as they are the foundation of the current time"

Here and there again...

Been running around a lot lately. Going to Cyberjaya, then to PJ, then back home again. Or either going to KL Central, PJ, then back home. Thats what i've been doing, running around for work. But yeah guess its good to be out from home office once in awhile. Need some change in environment.

What i realize from all these, is that projects after projects that I go for meeting and all, it can actually end up to waste of time. Yeah, its actually quite scary when we are in a project (before client signs). We have to do some research, explain to our client, propose, budget for them. And some how if they think that they want something cheaper and pick another vendor, then its bye bye project. Urgh, quite scary.

One of the scariest meeting or interesting meeting was actually meeting someone from Vancouver, Canada. Have to go all the way to his hotel to meet him. Quite impressive hotel as well. But having to meet someone who comes here all the way to do the presentation for us is actually quite stressful if this doesn't goes through. Heh, and what I'm quite sad is he was asking us what is good in KL,and me and my friend was sort of lost of words. :P (looks like we need to know more good places in KL)

Anyway, keeping this finger crossed. Have to think more positive on things and move on if it really didnt work out.

A trip to PD

Just recently, I went on a family trip for a short one day holiday to Port Dickson. Reason for going, was for my niece. This is her first time going to the beach. :)
We wanted to show her the beauty of the beach and also giving her a feel of the beach. She was excited about playing sand castle since we shared some stories with her and showed some pictures to her as well.

The day arrived when we all leave for PD and when we arrived, the beach was actually pretty abandoned. Guess its a holiday mood, most of the people must have gone back to their home town. This was during the 'Hari Raya Holiday' time. Ahh, not bad, private beach for ourselves. :P

At first my niece was a bit scared of the waves, but slowly she got used to it and she really enjoyed herself playing by the beach. We helped her build a small sand tower / castle.



But anyway, later on, i walked around the beach and i found something beautiful and something ugly....

Here's the natural beauty of the beach...





And here's the ugly part of the beach...





Eww, polluted by man kind. After a short walking only i realize that every step i take, i can see RUBBISH!!!

I think this is losing its name for big tourist attraction from my point of view. But I'll hope for the best.

After awhile of playing and walking, we decide to take our leave and head home to KL. For me its good to be away from all the technology and enjoy the wind and the beach once in awhile. :)
