As the alarm went off at 5am this morning...all that I remember is ....Nothing ! super late this morning. There goes my full allowance for day. Am use to leave the house by 6am to catch the bus and train. This morning though is only 7.30am I reached to town, the sun is up ; that makes me feel more late than ever.
One thing for sure that irritate and annoy me to the max today was attitude of our people. Upon boarding a bus or train..I do not know what is it that makes these so called human ...stand and crowded that the door. Everyone just cramp up while there is so many space inside. Addition to it..the priority seat in the train. Don't dream that someone gonna get their ass up to give place for pregnant mom, elderly person or even disable..they just glued their ass to the seat and pretend to sleep. Though this attitude are not all the time..but one thing for sure it fit the scales of MAJORITY while only minor are courteous.
Life is good life is great...come what may ..walk tall and hurdle through it.Weeks passed with all sort of beautiful things happened. People come and go..lesson learned and new chapter open everyday.
Few weeks back, I was force to attend a Self-defense class conducted by our HR. Reluctantly I was...since lots of things to do on the alarm floor. But I still go ahead to attend, put aside the NO syndrome. Turned out the be...it was damm useful. Its like I have to swallow my own words and felt a little embarrass of myself for being such a withdraw earlier.
I had in mind these vivid image of some kungfu or defense skill, but it was rather more on prevention way before hand. Things around us and step that we can take to prevent such horrible things like rape, robbery or snatch to happen. It make me realize how alert one person must be. We never knew who is watching. Being a target of such horrific incident is not all alone about being sexy or beautiful. Anyone can be a victim.
How alert we are when we step out from the house right till we come back home.
Useful tools that we can use as basic security measure plus tools that we can purchase at DIY shop which are much much cheaper. I guess very basic rule is that, be alert of your surroundings. Stay guarded all the time of yourself. Its ok to be called snob or self-fish..that's the best self defense one person can do to themselves.
Our spoke person shared with us the statistics of crime involving women since 1980s. Its heartbreaking to see those cases including those high crime profile. Bottom line he said...anyone can be a victim. Always remember to stay alert and
Our spoke person is an independent activist. He gave talk and self defense training to all levels from schools to ministry department. At the end it was a great lesson.
I have been totally busy, juggling between shift and my personal life. Being wanting to go back ; visit my parent ...that ain't gonna happened till July I guess. Addition to it....I m starting night shift soon. 3rd of July to be precise. Happy with the progress am making here, how I wish that I have this right attitude from younger days...probably I am somewhere now..higher I mean.
Naaah.....if that happen most probably I would be less appreciative and I wouldn't love my life as this much now.
I told my dear lover over last weekend, we have to find time..sit down and planned our wedding soon. Time fly so fast yo !..That very night of Saturday we went out for clubbing...resulting leg, body and every where pain....I tired till today. Too old for this already nowadays....or rather am not keeping up with it (denial)...
19.30hrs now here....counting time to go home...am gonna sleep like a dog tomorrow. Have outing to attend with my colleague at Social in Bangsar. I decided to make the effort to go along as I m done sitting at home on my off days..time to spread the wing and fly again.
This month my shift is a bit hectic...3 days shift back to back with only one off day in between....hell of tired must be. A friend told me..I will be super exhausted as I have set in my mind that its gonna be tiring. Shan told me of that day when I tried to compare the hurdle of journey I went to get to work ...wrestle with bus and train while he only drive. It struck me ...I by right cannot compare..its personal preference...he has walk mile of hurdles way before me. I have sit in my comfort zone..flying sky high....take a ride at the back of taxi to everywhere...refuse to take a bit of hassle. Just because I have to struggle now..its not right for me to compare. Sorry for that.
I guess over these two years that I've develop to be appreciative about everything...I always end up putting my struggle now into everyone shoes. While the truth is...they come from the hard path ...and settle now in comfort zone...and me on the other hand...from comfort zone..failure to value it....and the rest is history...
Its a valuable lesson...and I am taking every step to the fullest.
I remove my fear... I remove my reluctant...I remove my NO....put all these into where it belongs and that is when it comes to my SAFETY....if its a new positive thing that comes along....BRING IT ON !!!....and the result is AWESOME !!!!!
If fate means you to lose, give him a good fight anyhow. ~William McFee
It is said that a woman should once in their life at least fall for a wrong person ; to ensure we value the nice one that comes along after that. Hence, I've walked that lane..not once..but several time. Reason of failure in the earlier lane was..fail to love our self...thereafter once I let it the hunting for love ..the acceptance was even greater...I am at peace. Nothing matters anything rather than self happiness and self defense.
So to speak, one person arrived into my life...too good to be true at times but...there he is. Fit into what I want in a man...and that is to love, care and accept me as what I am. Its a God send..as simple as that.
Often my heart wonder..is this true or just temporary until...well I dunno what's our path going to be.
Am a chatter box as everyone knows it...from afar it does look like I am the dominant one between us. The truth is he rule our kingdom. We mend our flaws gracefully...together we become a better person everyday instead of changing each other to suit one another.
We walked through the tide bravely....then come along a huge wave. I froze..stand still and broke down into emotion while he was swipe away by the wave with unknown destination ....while I m busy tending my emotion time slip through ....gives me rude awakening that I got to swim fast to grab him back.
Wiped my tears away....through good and through bad..I m going to face this ...I am going to accept this fate with dignity. I had a good time with him....our life is wonderful. This wave is not going to last...storm will passed...I believe the sun will shine and the ocean will be blue again for us to paddle our way through.
One thing for sure..value what you have especially health. Don't count how much you have...count who you have when you are bed ridden.
My father use to said....he is old and he is healthy...he is not debt ..he is not making millions either. Live your life with clean heart. Always be happy ...get angry..get scared...and be brave enough to admit own mistake...love yourself and always always see things beyond our two naked eyes....see things from your heart...
I felt this burden of test from HIM is heavy..my love one is ill....but nonetheless I had carried heavier than this......tough time don't last...tough people do !
You know that saying, that when God closes a door he opens a window, well, sometimes out of nowhere he'll do you one better and he'll kick a whole wall down. ~Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk, and Ian Brennan, Glee, "Furt"

Gypsy bone ; either I am born with it or its my natural persona that I lover travelling. At my very first experience with travel agent 15 years back ; their slogan is 'Travel Broaden your knowledge'. Which to me is true. Not necessary overseas or far away from your home country ; closer distance is also a good gate away.
The feeling upon arrival into other than you common place area is usually remarkable for me ; regardless if it is my home country or another part of the world. Being in travel industry since I was 19 years old it just gives me great ambition to hold dream and wish of visiting places of interest around the world.
Back then, during my tenure at one of Malaysia leading Back packing and Independent Traveller ; I 've learned lots of tips on how one can actually pack their back and start the journey. Moved away from tight up with group departure. I've done lot of self-drive programme apart from hop on hop off journey. From Europe to New Zealand.
Its the passion of travelling that really hit me on digging deeper into places of interest around the world. To be honest ; I got my first lesson of my own home country by travelling 15 days circling Malaysia. It was fascinating. There are some places I never knew it exist ; the tourism industry outside Malaysia knows better.
I left the travel industry 4 years ago. Wanted to try something new. After 'touring' several industry from retail to telecommunication and now I end up in Medical Assistance platform. Still, my 'gypsy' bone itch to travel.
Out of most places in this world, New Zealand is my favourite (Dev Anand if you are reading this ; you should have something to say ; i know....) Being there gives you this feeling ; Time just stop. Its breath taking and splendid scenery beyond recognition of words. For some it might be a bit boring, well not for me. Its nature at its best. Two weeks its not enough to tour this place..so much to see.
Second ambitious travelling plan I wanna do is travel in Europe by rail. From London to Athens. I love to see Greece. Standing at the Temple of Zeus would be fascinating.
Third is Tibet, don't know why it just gives me that nice fresh feeling. Its just simply beautiful and its like travelling back in time.
Above all...if I have one dream to fulfil; I just want to travel around the world for one year. Step into all the continent that makes this world. Weather its going to be a reality or not..time will tell. I will definitely dream sky high....in the event it settle and fulfil by 90% of it..hey that's good enough rather than sitting around and just day dream.....

"Success doesn't come to you?you go to it."Marva Collins
People said I’ve changed so much.
Well here’s the honest truth,
I grew up. I stopped letting people
push me around, I learned that
you can’t always be happy; I accepted reality
Second months into my shift work. Manageable so far or rather I conquer it with pride. Still a obstacle here and there. Experience first hand of each and every request. 3 months classroom training ; finally everything fall into places.
I guess the point here is ; what ever you do in your life, if you put heart and soul into it...give extra percent more than just 100%, the result will be priceless. Hard work always pay. Not just that, always give yourself time frame. Trial period to allow yourself to blend in. In the event that its not a correct path for you..the least you have give your level best.
Believe in yourself that is very important. There is nothing in this world that you cannot do. Accept the challenge with open heart and positive mind. Reach out to those around you if you need help. Of course not everybody will lend their hand to you but nonetheless there will be someone for sure.
The next time if we think it is impossible to do ; think again have we give our very best to it or did we back out before it is even started.
Nobody is perfect ; but we can sharpen or shape it to perfection. Its all about attitude. Simply take a glance to those successfull person around the world ; they have similarity..very fond basic similarity...Hard work, positive attitude, always give the best and believe they can reach to the star. The very best part is these people...they are down to earth.
Always give your level best and minimize those negative thought. I can't say erase the negativeness; after all we are human. HIS all mighty creation ; born with flaws.
Last but not least, value your life and those who is in your life. Do what you think is right ; be protective of yourself...love yourself. When the pain strive..ain't no one else gonna feel it rather than yourself. Eyes that sees does not carry the same weight as what lies on our shoulder.
Pity those who inherits a million and isn't a millionaire.Here's what would be pitiful,if your income grew and you didn't.
Nothing in life happens to me, it happens for me. I am not defined by my past, I am prepared by it. God wouldn’t have allowed me to go through it if he didn’t have a purpose for it. Life is too short to have a victim mentality. Say to yourself, I’m not gonna be bitter, I’m gonna get better
