A tiring but great Saturday..

Woke up at 12+ in the afternoon. (Usual time for a 'night owl' like me..) Had an appointment at 1U with some friends at 1pm. Rush rush rush. By the time I fetched Ben, reached 1U, got a parking space and met Cherish and Adeline in front of the DC shop, it was already 2+ pm. (okok.. I know we are late.. But it's because we are unable to get parking space lo.. [EXCUSES!] trying to cover up for our lateness...XD)

On to presents hunting. What a headache! Walk here, walk there. See this, see that. No to this, no to that. Shops after shops we go. Met Wei Chean in the process. And Ke Min too. ( + Randy sms Adeline that he saw us) Then halfway through all these, Cherish had to leave for his appointment. (I think it's dental.. is it?lol..) After that, had our lunch (more like Ben and me having our lunch with Adeline watching us with her saliva drooling..ooopss..forgot you will be reading this..sorry for telling the truth! XD)  Then on we walked for our unfinished business there...

Then reached a shop that I should not have stepped in in the first place. Well, what happened there? I saw some nike shoes that I like so much!! And as you would have guessed, I ended up buying it. Nice shoe, nice to wear, nice to see, and so 'NICE' to pay... haha.. But I like that shoe very much. Since my casual shoes already had a hole in it, I decided to buy it. At first thought that there's a 10% discount. But turned out it'a new arrival. So no discount! (arghhhhh.. officially bankrupt.. bread and maggi from now.. XD) Here's a picture on it---->

So what do you think? Nice? Planning to use it for casual wear and my other pair for sports. Well, enough on the shoes. Back to the present hunting. Search, think, look here and there and finally by about 7pm, its DONE!! Finally... Leg was getting tired. Long time I didn't walk and shop for so long already. Adeline was complaining of back pain.(old already..xp) Ben on the other hand was still so active going into shops looking around.

Was actually supposed to have tennis game at 7pm. But it was raining heavily so ended up postponed to Sunday. Since we are free, the three of us decided to go for a movie - G-Force... Nice movie, cute hamsters and guinea pigs, funny at times. Overall an enjoyable one. Done with the movie the movie, everyone was hungry by then. So after getting some things done at the MPH ( met Thomas Yap.. been a long time since I saw him..), off for dinner of fish ball mee somewhere in Metro Prima. We were actually the last customers there. While eating, had a nice conversation with the both of them. The conversation makes me think just how wrong or misleaded the people in this world can go... Alas, we are not them to change what's on their mind. Hopefully they will stumble back to the right path...

Well, a tiring but nice day spent with my friends. Enjoyed it. Although it's also a costly day for me. More activity to come. Hope to enjoy the time with my friends well before they go back to their uni life.. ^___^

Damn Pissed Off....

Finish my class at 5 o'clock, I rushed to ktm hoping to get on an early train back home. I was thinking of the various things I have to do when I reach Kepong while waiting. And I wait and wait till I started to get annoyed. 1720-delay + no announcement. Never mind. It's Malaysia's KTM we are talking about. So then I wait again.. 1740-another delay! And no announcement of what's wrong. At 1750, I decided to go over to the other platform hoping to get on the limited stop shuttle train. Make a new friend at that time. Wei Seng's the name. (you there?.. =D)

And the same process took place. Wait and wait and wait. This time at least I have someone to talk to. Or else I'll be cursing the bloody crappy ktm openly. 3 hours is what it takes to reach Kepong KTM!! 3 damn bloody hours I wasted waiting for that train!! Fine! As expected of our 'efficient' train service. But then, I remembered something that I read recently which made me more pissed off with this whole thing-->

TEMERLOH, 16 Sept — Kerajaan Malaysia, di bawah teraju Najib Razak semalam  mengumumkan bahawa Kerajaan dengan usahasama Litar Antarabangsa Sepang (SIC), Persatuan Sukan Permotoran Malaysia, Naza Motor dan Air Asia telah menubuhkan pasukan lumba kereta Formula 1 dengan nama 1Malaysia. Pasukan ini akan menyertai sirkit F1 pertamanya pada musim 2010.-Malaysian Insider

So Mr. Najib is going to waste the taxpayers' money for a bloody costly F1 programme is it? What happened to his slogan of “1Malaysia. People First. Performance Now”?? Why don't someone just tell Mr. Najib to take ktm to work for a year, maybe a month perhaps and maybe he'll think twice on his decision again.Why can't he realize that there is so much more within our country that needs his attention rather than an F1 team for 2010 Season?!

“Why waste billions and make inferior cars to waste on F1 when a RM20 cow head and caning a model can get Malaysia global news coverage? F1 is foreign but those incidents are truly Malaysian!”-Malaysian Insider

Have you received a text message containing the above statement? Well, If you haven't, then you have seen it now. So now the thing is Mr. Prime Minister is saying that by creating this F1 team, our country name will be known worldwide. That it will be ‘Made-in-Malaysia, by Malaysians’ and of course, the pit-stops will be run by Malaysians'. And Dr. Mahathir was saying “With the F1 race, Malaysia is shown to the world for hours. We don’t have to pay a single sen. If we were to calculate the advertisement in Japan alone, it may run into US$100 million or US$200 million. So imagine ... more than 300 television stations telecast the F1 race. People will know more about Malaysia if we have our own F1 team.” So we should be proud as a Malaysian that we have an F1 team when countries like Singapore and Indonesia don't have, is it? And now I ask you, you think if you are a foreigner, which one will be more attractive to you, the cow of the car?

Now, Mr. Prime Minister, some of you may be happily showing off to the whole world that Malaysia has its own F1 team-which may be a good thing. But do you know that the rest of us are worried with the way you handled the country, the way you waste the people's money at a time when economy are still considered bad, the way you and your buddies handled the PKFZ scandal, the cow issues and so much more...If only you could think in a wider scope with your small brain, then we would probably have better days to look forward to. Alas, but that's not the case...

It's sad to know that Malaysians have given their votes to a party which before this WAS a party that we can relied much on BUT currently a party so full of the mentality to win and win until most of the Rakyat needs are ignored. A party so full of corruption that public accountability is a 'NO-NO'. A party which is so narrow minded that oppositions' views are never taken into account. A party so desperate to cover up the truth that websites reporting on the real deal is investigated and made inaccessible.

When is the current Government going to keep in touch with the people's needs? The KTM for example. I remembered my lecturer told me recently that in order for a country to be a 'developed country', they must have an efficient transport system. Look at Korea, China, Singapore, Japan and so on. All their train services are ways better than ours. And yet our resources are being used in something that may not be so relevant to us now. Just how much more are you people gonna waste???!

Rand0m updateSs...

Holidays, holidays and holidays.. That's the word I've been hearing from most of my uni friends. D*mn. Why am I still having class later? Why? Why? Why? (Stop complaining, idiot! It's for your own good... XD)

Enough with the complaint. And back to the main topic I want to talk about. Movies... After the Indiana Jones movie that I watched, comes another two more that I've been wanting to watch before this, but couldn't get anyone to go along to the cinema - G.I.Joe and District 9...

G.I.Joe was simply awesome. Probably the best movie around after transformers. Even the fact that my downloaded copy is blurry at times and the audio quality is super lousy doesn't stop me from enjoying it. (Imagine me watching at the cinema. It'll be super awesome...)

It's simply perfect. Like those ninjas in the movie. Awesome sword skills... And yesterday was watching District 9. Hmmm.. Didn't turn out to be the type of movie that I like to watch. But still a nice movie. Guess what? Having neither read the movie synopsis nor watch the trailer, so basically I knew nothing about the show beforehand. And after watching for about half an hour, I was actually wondering whether I downloaded the wrong copy. (Maybe you'll know what I mean if you've watched it..) Was thinking maybe I downloaded the making of that movie. And I acually ended up sleeping halfway through the show and finishing it when I woke up few hours later..XD

Time to stop downloading movies. It's time to focus on my studies. Wouldn't want to keep wasting my time watching movies every week. (although I don't mind doing that.. XD) STUDY, Patrick!!

All right then, a bit of update on my office life. As one of my colleague is gonna resign for her studies, so we took some pics together on thursday.. Here it is...

 

 

As you can see from the pics, all females. And the males in my office are all my uncles. What a nice working environment. Can't rebel at all.(Ooops.. hope none of them are reading this...) And the colleague that's gonna resign-->2nd pic, the one sitting down. (Ermm.. No offence but if you ask me what's my first impression of her from that pic, my first thought will be either she's disabled or she has some problems with her legs..Oops.. You there? XD)

There you go.. I'm late for my class again.. As usual.. *sigh* Well, I'll be seeing you guys around then.. Happy holidays and Selamat Hari Raya, folks.. ^___^

Blood Donation...

Blood donation! My third one so far. It was held at 17th floor of the same building as my college. Actually planned to go at around 11-12 noon. But ended up reaching there around 1.30pm. And it was packed! Didn't know that it will attract so many people. Thanks to that, I was late for my class. Late by an hour and a half!! Damn! Should have went earlier. If only I woke up earlier. *sigh* But no choice la. I slept at 6am this morning leh. Need to sleep at least 5 hours for the donation, though I don't think I did. (EXCUSES!!! XD)

The whole thing was done in a small room. 9 beds (that's beds right?I don't really know what you call those bedlike chairs..) in total for the event. 9 BEDS!!! And I ended waiting for more than an hour before my turn came. (ok la.. maybe its not that bad after all) Was actually debating whether to continue queuing up or just leave for my class. But I guess I don't really mind skipping the first half of my class. Ooops.. XD While waiting, I read my lecture notes and listen to some songs from my phone. And then finally comes my turn. fuh~~... Finally!!

I guess you guys know the process. No need for me to explain. Some of the measurement taken : weight-60 kgs & blood pressure-132/72. What's the normal pressure ah? forgot already. Was thinking of asking the woman back then but she seems to be busy. And then they ask what time I slept yesterday. And guess what? I lied to her. Well, of course I lied. Wouldn't want to be kicked out from the room for not having enough sleep. I mean it's no big deal what time i sleep right? It's not like I'll faint or anything. And coupled with the fact that she looks like someone who's very strict, I decided to say 'pass' to the truth. (was wondering whether my blood pressure rise when I lied. Coz she was checking mine that time..XD)

Then on to those 'bed'. Nothing much there. But I was hoping that no one saw the small hole at the heel part of my shoe. Don't think anyone saw it though. Guess it's time to change soon. (poor me.. shoe also got hole already.. anyone kind enough get me one? XD) And my heart was pumping faster than a bullet train when the nurse was about to inject. Guess I hate that i-dunno-what-you-call-'em feeling those injection gave me. Then after finish donating 450 ml of my blood, my hand become sort of numb. The scar left from the needle was actually swollen. Couldn't even carry my bag with my left hand. (Great!! Another imperfection to an otherwise perfect body of mine. XD) The other 'imperfection'? It's my left leg. Still giving me a bit of a trouble. Not much though. Hopefully it'll heal soon.

After that, rush to my class. Hmmm. No big problem being late. Piece of cake to catch up..XD Luckily I read what he's gonna teach yesterday. If not it'll really be big trouble. And I was DAMN SLEEPY!!! ( really must thank that 'someone' for this! XD) Luckily it's just an hour and a half left...

Well, that pretty much sums up my day. After that it was the same old routine again.. I guess that's all for now.. Take care everyone =D

Born Lucky?!

I don't know how much posts I have read nowadays. It could be 30, 40.. or maybe 100 for all I know. (not so much la.. that would be crazy.. XD) All I know is that most of my free time had been spent on reading blogs. (or rather most of my supposed-to-be-studying time..) Why am I so engaged in blogs? Well, I'm not sure myself. Maybe it's because I wish to know about other people's experience. Their life in different part of the world sounds interesting. Listening to their stories, complaints, ramblings and blah blah blah on their life.

Lately I enjoy reading blogs of elders. Enjoy reading posts on their life, whether past or present, their family,.... Well, it'll be endless and pointless to list all. Reading their experiences in life just make me think how little 'taste' I have of this life yet. Well, being a gonna-be-21-soon kid, I guess I still have lots waiting for me.

On to the topic, I actually came across a few blogs of dads having children with down syndrom. I have not personally met any people in this kind of situation yet. So it's actually something new to me. Makes me eager to know how these people cope with it. And I found out that most are living a good life. (for those that I have read la)

And then on to the thinking (reflection) part, I realized just how lucky I was (and still am) to be born in good conditions just like any other kid. Okay, I'm not trying to say that born with diseases such as down syndrom is bad.. I mean which crazy person in this world would wish for a child or wish to be born with some sort of disabilities? (hmmm.. Maybe there are.. I guess there are always some weirdos around..)

Being born normal and able to live just like every other normal kid, I guess i really should thank God for that. Countless people around the globe might not be eating what I eat, might not be drinking what I'm drinking, might not afford to buy anything like me, might not have a home to stay in or even to do anything or enjoy life like me. Just imagine in those war-torn countries like Afghanistan and Iraq. Imagine some of those people over there, starving and not having enough to eat, struggling hard to survive. And imagine you being one of them.. Yes, i mean YOU! Imagine how long you can survive...

Living in such good environment, and yet most of us are complaining hard. (myself included.. haha) Some of us can even afford to waste. E.g. water, electricity, food, blah blah blah.. (you know better than me right? Since you waste so much...XD) And some of this 'waste' may be what those 'struggling' people wish for right at this moment. So each time you want to waste, try to think of those situations. Talking bout wasting, I myself don't  like people wasting food. Hate to see people doing that actually. Maybe it was because I was taught not to do so since young.

I guess most of us are born lucky. Aren't you? So remember when you complain about life next time, remember that there might be countless people who wishes for the life you're having. Feel grateful for all that you have and appreciate it well.. ^___^

The 'Odd-oNe-ouT'?

It's been another lazy Sunday for me.. Woke up at 2pm in the afternoon (slept at 5am yesterday.. very normal for me already.. ^^) then straight to blogs, blogs and more blogs.. really having fun reading blogs.. (yes yes.. i know I should be studying.. but I need PLENTY of rest for my brain la...XD)

then around 5pm started watching Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade at home.. hmmm... the 1st 30 to 45 minutes was boring to me.. (the scenes are quite dark..) so bored that my head was actually nodding.. And just when I thought of clicking on the 'X' button, it starts getting really interesting and funny.. And from there on, was laughing most of the time.. Not a bad show to watch.. Had a real good laugh..=D

Well, on the the main topic.. While I was reading 'the bearded one's' blog, i came across this sentence : "I have an older brother and a younger sister, and I always felt like the odd one out." And then I ask myself aren't I an 'odd one out' too? So why do I feel so?

As most of you know, I'm kinda a quiet person (or rather very).. So you can guess how I am at home.. Seldom talk to my mum.. To my bro and sis still okay la.. But when it comes to family gathering, 99.99% you'll see me do anything BUT talking... to make it worse, I'm not very good in speaking cantonese or mandarin and that's the common language there.. (especially when the talk is on current issues.. oh my.. I really can't find the suitable chinese words for those terms..lol) so most of the time I prefer listening..

So that's where the feeling of being an 'odd one out' came from.. Unable to communicate well with them.. unable to share my views.. sometimes feels like a big fool sitting there quietly when the rest are talking around... but of course if my cousins are around then it's a different story la.. At home also the same.. particularly with my mum.. we don't really talk much unless it's neccessary.. well, how do you expect me to tell her much in a language that i'm totally a 'banana'?!

Of course that feeling also surfaced when I'm mixing with people that I'm not familiar with.. being a quiet person, it's hard for me to start talking, especially when the topics are not right and so do the language... So, have you people ever felt that? yes? no? don't know? Well, you know yourself best...

A new week on the rise.. Monday's coming fast... Weekends coming to an end.. how i wish for a longer weekend... XD Well, hope you guys have a good week.. ^____^

In the Mood to Read, reAd n r3aD...

Been visiting Popular bookstores very often these few weeks.. (its just 3 shops away from my college) dunno why but the mood to read is really on.. so strong that I had to resist hard my desire to purchase some of the books there when I went in... argghhhhh.. should be studying and not thinking about books lah!! And besides, gotta save money for some things I want.. (if only I am rich...XD) can't buy so just look around lo.. Haven't read for a very long time already.. The last book i touch was the Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows.. (read it for countless times already.. really like it.. ^.^ ) Too bad most of the books there are wrapped.. Not much choice for me to choose to read there... Decided to read 'The Final Theory"...

Not a new book I think.. Just read two chapters of it actually.. So can't give much comment.. But from the synopsis sounds like the kind of book I like to read.. hmmm.. hopefully I'll return to the store to read it la.. IF my reading mood still on la.. (IF la.. LOL...)

Back home, I was and still am reading lots of blogs.. Likes Lim Kit Siang's blog.. So much on our country's issues.. political especially.. and also another blog that I saw in the Blogs of Note.. Ramblings of the Bearded One.. loves his style of writing.. dunno why but it really attracts me.. nice to read his 'ramblings'..=D

Arrrgghhhhh.. it's already mid of September and here I am wasting my time on unrelated stuff... slack~ slack~ slack~.. Once October comes, i'll be having lots to do if i don't start studying now... *sigh* It's always open the book, see and read a few pages.. then my mind will be going elsewhere.. ended up doing study-UNrelated stuff.. really should be stricter on myself from now on..

It's always nice to read.. but i always choose the wrong timing for dat... haha.. I used to be a bookworm.. especially to those who knows me from my primary days and during the early years of my secondary life.. Not so much at the latter part though.. Was always with books that time.. After finish my works in classes or at home, you will most of the time find me reading my books.. miss those days.. if only could turn back time...XD

Oh ya, last Tuesday saw a poster at the ground floor of my college building regarding blood donation.. Planning to attend it.. On next wednesday.. I actually thought it's on tomorrow(last Wednesday).. Luckily i read carefully or I'll make a fool of myself (although I'm always 1 la...XD) going there and asking around about it..

Actually I'm supposed to have class on my birthday, 31st October..(RMB it!! XD) but guess wat.. just after i saw this poster and decided to go for it, about 15 minutes later in the class,  my lecturer told me the class is changed to another time.. thank God.. i was really glad.. Can you imagine how shitty it is to have an exhausting 6 hours class on your birthday!! haha.. i actually wonder whether those two things are related.. 'budi baik dibalas baik'? (u reap wat u sow..) haha.. so vain.. what do you think? haha.. but then I haven't even donate yet.. so maybe its not...

well, that's all for now.. have a good weekend and take care, folks...

[p.s. below is a picture that I received just now and I like it.. thought wanna share with u guys..enjoy!]

 English Translation:

The last honest talk about our dreams I had with you turn out well.
The time that I should have spent with you, was spent on work or friends.
But why, even though I was surrounded by so many people,
I felt like as if I was the loneliest person on Earth.
I started searching for your shadow.

I love you; I call your name repeatedly.
It would have been great if I could continue loving you. The word "goodbye" was repeated many times.
Even though it marks the end, I can't forget you.

The rain never teaches anything, it only continues to fall.
Always, at the same time in the last train, people are being accompanied by their lovers.
The feelings and desires that keep piling are not fading.
Even though time has passed, the clouds won't clear and the tears from the sky
still won't stop falling.

I love you; I call your name repeatedly.
It would have been great if I could continue loving you. I had become a coward.
If you were the flower that blooms,

I have given you too much water such that you wilted; I protected you so much that
I had deprived you of sunlight. I have no idea why, but I miss you
I miss you

Honey that is too sweet, is being hated because of its sweetness.
When the perfect balance is broken and it starts to crumble, I became scared.
When I understood what was important,
I let go of love.

Separation is the beginning of a new rendezvous,
you taught me that.
Even today, I am still moving on but-

I love you; I call your name repeatedly.
My heart still can't understand. The word "goodbye" was repeated many times.
Even though it marks the end.

Even though I am aware that we won't be able to meet again,
I am still searching for the reason. The word "goodbye" was repeated many times.
I can't deceive my heart....

Do U Know That It's LUNCHTIME??!

The office phone rings, one of the employees picks up and says:

"What kind of an IDIOT is it that dares to phone ME in the middle of my lunch break?!?"

The caller shouts back:
"Do you have any idea whom you are talking to...? I am the CEO of this company!"

The employee replies:
"Do you have any idea whom YOU are talking to?"

Perplexed the CEO mumbles:
"NO!!!"

The employee heaves a sigh of relief and says:
"Thank goodness for that!!"
and hangs up...

The Thoughts of a Malaysian Kid...

Bac from college n straight 2 laptop (s usual...) n den while reading sm blog updates i came across Lim Kit Siang's blog... well, i muz admit i dun reli noe him.. jz know dat hes an influential politician in Malaysia.. n when i was reading his posts, smthing keep popping up in my mind...

I kept thinking how much more corrupted is Malaysia gonna get?Jz how much more stupid things n act r v gonna do?.. n when is the racial issues ever be solved??? with the recent happenings such as the cow-head protest n the PKFZ scandal, i jz cant imagine how vr gonna achieve our dreams (i think its 1Malaysia..lol)...

Im particularly angry on the cow-head issues.. i wonder where those racist fools keep their brains...

Interviews made by The Malaysian Insider recently revealed that several residents of Section felt their religion had been 'sidetracked' and 'betrayed' by their Muslim leaders. How so? Because the new site for the Hindu temple is just 150 meters from a surau and in a Muslim-majority housing area. The Sri Maha Mariaman Temple had to be relocated from its original site because it was also too close to another surau.-Stand Up For Malaysia blog

Our hindu communities had already shown their tolerance by relocating their temple n yet these fools still wana complain so muc... just wth u guys think ur?.. I tot this country is supposed to b multi-racial.. Den y all the fuss?? n to make it worse, those objectors carried a severed bloodied cow in their protest, an animal which is considered as sacred by the Hindu community... Now now, can somebody tell me which party is the one not showing any tolerance and care before they act??.. ok then, maybe they have a good reason for their protest.. so what is it?.. "the residents argued that the relocation of the temple directly affects Muslim sensitivities.. but when asked what these "sensitivities" were, those objectors failed to provide any clear answers"..!!WTH....

On the PKFZ issues, i guess u guys r very familiar wif it.. Corruption, a word so infamous in our dear country.. u can jz c dem everywhere... 1 example wil b during the Raya break n Chinese new year esp.. when so sudd all of us can c our 'very hardworking' traffic policemen patrolling n setting roadblocks everywhere.. n when ur caught, guess wat... dey r sooo damn helpful, rite? well, no comment... since Malaysian r generally kind n helpful ppl....

N theres another thing dat has been on my mind for a very long time... before dat, if ur offended by anything dat i've written thus far, pls jz dun hesitate 2 get out of here.. well, continue on.. the 'bumiputera' concept... From my understanding, this's suppose 2 mean in general malays..(mayb include sm others but im nt sure) so now my Q is R V NOT MALAYSIAN?? den y wif the bumiputera n non-bumiputera thingy.. this term mayb right before but den v s the next generation r born in Malaysia.. v contribute muc to our country n yet those 'bumiputera's get benefits dat v dont! y not jz call us all MALAYSIAN? is dat hard? after all , vr reli malaysians...

N on the education issues.. the issue on Science & Maths to be taught in BM... well, wat now? U fellas wana b competitive , wana b s gd s those ppl outside Malaysia n yet ur education system is doing the opposite.. jz bcoz SOME ppl cant cope wif it in english.. i cant help but wonder wat's our 'great' leaders r doing in the Cabinet... sm1 reli shud wake them up from their sleep...

Well, i think all these problems stem from the Malays.. (not all though.. sorry bout this) some of the Malays, mind you, jz SOME (but a large no. of dem) r jz too narrow minded... Cant dey think out of the box? when can dey let go the past? dun they understand that vr already in 2009 n not in the 1957 era... dat its time to b united s MALAYSIAN rather den by race or bumiputera or non....

Surely there will come a time when we are no longer categorized by race but rather as Malaysian or non-Malaysians, a day when corruption exists at the minimum level (best if none, but impossible for that to happen..), a day when every single Malaysian can live in harmony with each other regardless of their differences.. but i seriously wonder when dat'll reli materialise... lets juz hope dat it wont b long... phew~~~ so many issues in our country.. too long 2b listed... haihzz.. take note this article is badly written.. so just bear wif it ya... jz a piece of thought from a Malaysian kid.... ^____^

BuSy bZ~iNg~~~

Attitude & Choices

Hey guys... i jz got an e-mail dat i wish 2 share wif u guys.. A very interesting e-mail.. (thx to Heidy ya..=D) sm of u might hav act read it.. Well, here it is...........

John is the kind of guy you love to hate. He is always in a good mood and always has something positive to say. When someone would ask him how he was doing, he would reply, 'If I were any better, I would be twins!'

He was a natural motivator.

If an employee was having a bad day, John was there telling the employee how to look on the positive side of the situation.

Seeing this style really made me curious, so one day I went up and asked him, 'I don't get it!'

'You can't be a positive person all of the time. How do you do it?'

He replied, 'Each morning I wake up and say to myself, you have two choices today. You can choose to be in a good mood or...you can choose to be in a bad mood

I choose to be in a good mood.'

Each time something bad happens, I can choose to be a victim or....I can choose to learn from it. I choose to learn from it.

Every time someone comes to me complaining, I can choose to accept their complaining or...I can point out the positive side of life. I choose the positive side of life.

'Yeah, right, it's not that easy,' I protested.

'Yes, it is,' he said. 'Life is all about choices. When you cut away all the junk, every situation is a choice. You choose how you react to situations. You choose how people affect your mood.

You choose to be in a good mood or bad mood. The bottom line: It's your choice how you live your life.'

I reflected on what he said. Soon hereafter, I left the Tower Industry to start my own business. We lost touch, but I often thought about him when I made a choice about life instead of reacting to it.

Several years later, I heard that he was involved in a serious accident, falling some 60 feet from a

communications tower.

After 18 hours of surgery and weeks of intensive care, he was released from the hospital with rods placed in his back.

I saw him about six months after the accident..

When I asked him how he was, he replied, 'If I were any better, I'd be twins....Wanna see my scars?'

I declined to see his wounds, but I did ask him what had gone through his mind as the accident took place.

'The first thing that went through my mind was the well-being of my soon-to-be born daughter,' he replied.. 'Then, as I lay on the ground, I remembered that I had two choices: I could choose to live or...I could choose to die. I chose to live.'

'Weren't you scared? Did you lose consciousness?' I asked

He continued, '...the paramedics were great.

They kept telling me I was going to be fine. But when they wheeled me into the ER and I saw the expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses, I got really scared. In their eyes, I read 'he's a dead man'. I knew I needed to take action.'

'What did you do?' I asked.

'Well, there was a big burly nurse shouting questions at me,' said John. 'She asked if I was allergic to anything 'Yes, I replied.' The doctors and nurses stopped working as they waited for my reply. I took a deep breath and yelled, 'Gravity''

Over their laughter, I told them, 'I am choosing to live. Operate on me as if I am alive, not dead..'

He lived, thanks to the skill of his doctors, but also because of his amazing attitude...I learned from him that every day we have the choice to live fully.

Attitude, after all, is everything.

Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.' Matthew 6:34

After all today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday..

A very interesting mail n story.. Make me feel a bit bad abt all my complaints n bad moods n stuff lik dat... i guess its normal for evry1 2 hav this kinda attitude.. but i guess v(o rather i) shud look at the positive side.. even when v r in a very bad situation... v r the 1 who choose how 2 lead our life.. the choice is always ours.. n its our choice n our attitude to life dat wil determine how our life wil unfold... well, lets all work hard 4 a good life dat v wil never regret... ^___^
