Beautiful vs Ugly

Let say you are in a hurry to find a love partner (whatever reason), and you are now in an appointment to meet up with 2 girls (guys) at a place at the same time. You stop walking, when you have reached a distance, which you still able to see the full figure of the 2 girls (guys) clearly. You have a short observation on them without their notice, so you can make a final decision to proceed with or to escape from date. Following are the possible results of the observation: ~

a

1. Both of them are beautiful (handsome)

a

a
2. One is beautifu(handsome) & one is ugly

3. Both of them are ugly

a

From the 3 situations [ (1),(2),(3) ] above, in which situation you are more likely to proceed with the date or in which situation you are more likely to escape from the date? I guess most of us will never have a long hesitation to proceed with the date if we are in situation (1), or to escape from the date if we are in the situation (3). However, we may need a while of consideration if we are in situation (2). Is it right? Well, this may reflect that us human like the beautiful and dislike the ugly, love the good and hate the bad, happy to be rich and sad be poor...etc

a

So how about you? What are the criteria or requirements will be in the consideration when you are looking for a "White Snow Princess" or "Mr Right"? She must be charming, beautiful, slim and sexy and etc? (Or he must be charming, handsome, athletic, macho and etc?) .

a

I do believe now-a-day there been a big change in our thinking, perception & insight. We no longer only care on the external look when looking for a love partner, we take account on their internal gentility, attitude, behaviour, interest, family background & etc too. Hmm, does it meant we have even more choosy and picky on our love partner?

a

Anyway, I'm sure that most time the external look still at the first place to be considered & evaluated, follows by other criteria & requirements. Why should physical look supersede the others? Isn't all human being are creations of the so called "GOD", then each individual must have its unique & special. But why those who with beautiful face or body shape tend to be more attractive?

a

What is so different between the "beautiful" & "ugly"? I think they should be the same. Do you know why? Okie, I used to call "ugly" as "simple". You will know why if you ever tried to draw the portrait of a human face, isn't an ugly face is easier & simple to be drawn compare to a beautiful face? Between you must always heard people say that "Simple is Beautiful" (简单是美）? So what a conclusion you can make?

a

Since, Ugly = Simple

And Simple = Beautiful

So, Ugly = Beautiful

a

Well, you see? From the mathematics equation above, "Ugly is Beautiful"!

"Thank You"

Do you know how to say "Thank You"?
In what kind of situation there is a need to say "Thank You"?
Do you just keep silent even though you know that you must say "Thank You"?

a
Quite sometime ago, I went out for dinner with Fern & her friend, Hwei Chen. After dinner we hang up in Parkson Grand (Bintang Plaza, Miri). I wonder why, whenever they go to Parkson, Watson & Gardiant are the must visit place, even though they don't have any intention or mood to buy any thing. Let back to the main point...

a
Of course most time they did buy some girlish stuffs, and of course I have toFern's bills are paid by me (sometime only lah...don't wanna spoiled her mah...:p ). As usual after paid the bill & get back the change from the cashier, I used to say "Thank You". Who know Hwei Chen look at me with her rounded eyes & asked me loudly & curiously: "Why you say TQ to her? You pay her the money hor...". Before Im in time to answer her question, Fern added: "Yaloh, why you say TQ?" Me: "............!" If you are in my situation, would you say "Thank You" to the cashier?
a

a
Some people think that it is not logic for us customers to say "Thank You" to a casher, as we pay him/her the money, by right a casher should say "Thank You" to us customers, as he/she earn our money. Actually the reason why should we say "Thank You" to the casher is very simple, but us customers just tend to be so ignorent & innocent, never want to find it out "why"? May be just like what Buddha has said, the word "I" or "Me" (我) has makes us become so selfish, only thinking of our own good & neglect the feelings of others; or again the "Customer is Alway Right" or "The Customer is The King" has makes us spoiled? Or may be we tend to think & analyse thing(s) laterally instead of bilaterally? [ Don't forget, a coin always has 2 sides, the head & the tail ]

a

aA

An example, If I drop you a comment into your post entries / blog, most people will agree that you should thanks me; then, should I thanks you? Of course, but for what? ...... Nothing, just for giving me a chance to left a comment into your post / blog, thats all! So now, can you understand why should we say "Thank You" to the cashier? Just because of he/she provides us the product(s) or service(s)...! If you still think that not logic or proper for us to thanks the cashier, it is fine, say "Welcome" instead... : )

Horton ~ Hears A Who?

"Horton ~ Hears A Who?" is a CGI Animated movie, it was the latest movie I watched in the cinema last week. Horton is an elephant who hears a cry of help from a speck of dust. So he has managed to help & protect the "Who", who he believes is a very very small & tiny community living on the dust.

No one believe Horton's saying, especially his neighhour, the Mrs Kangaroo claimed that Horton's nonsense is trying to poisoning the mind & thinking of the small childs. So she calls a group of monkeys & the vulture to destroy the dust & purnish the Horton............Of course at the end, Horton success to prove them the existance of the "Who" on the dust.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My Words:
In the movie, the Mrs Kangaroo has made a statement sound like "A Thing Is Not Exist If We Can't See, Can't Hear, or Can't Even Touch It"! How true is it? Are you going to agree or disagree with her? I believe most of you will be so offensive to such thinking & perception. Wonder why?

Then should ask your self a very simple question - "Do you believe in GOD"? Hmm, I guess most of you do, right? Can you see, hear or touch the GOD? Of course you don't! So does the GOD exist? Honestly I have no idea, and I'll never try to simply answer either "Yes" or "No", although my answer is more to the "Yes"; It would be a tough question for you to answer if you are a "Free Thinker" like me (Err...actually Im more to the Buddhist side...)!

Another interesting question is - "Do you believe in Ghost"? Many people told that they have saw the ghost; some even claimed that they have heard the ghost talking, screaming, groaning or crying. So what do you think? Will you believe it? Or you just assumed that it is not exist because of you never encounter it before? Ya, some people tend to be like this, they will never believe in certain things, unless they have experienced it by their own. Just like we sometime feel so hard to take the advices from those who elder or experienced than us & caused in so much regretful in the coming days!

By the way, the 2 examples above seem to be too abstract to most of us & hard for us to have an imagination on their real figure. So why not we try to have a "solid" example which we can see, hear & touching on. Wright brothers (Orville Wright & Wilbur Wright) were the inventors of the airplane. I guess when Wright brothers made the statement that one day human can fly on the sky, most people won't belief it & may thought that Wright brother were mad & like to day dreaming. Some more people have said that “If God had intended for human beings to fly, He would have given us wings.” in the past. If Wright brothers have believed & surrendered to this statement, then we will never have the airbus today.

Poster grabbed from www.allposters.com

It can be say that most of things we saw, we heard, & we had today aren't available in the past, these are the great jobs of the human being. Day dreaming some time can be a good practice, if some one can adopt & combine the idea(s) from the "day dreaming" with the creative & innovative thinking, to turn what we don't see, we don't hear, and we don't feel into a product or service that we can see, can hear & can feel. We must dare to dream & dare to action, never rely on the ordinary rules & laws, so we can make a different & change in the future!

My Saturday Night with "The Mist"

I like watching movie very much, especially those action, horror & comedy movies (love movies occasional lah), I'll never miss it. Of course, it is impossible to watch all the movies in the cinema, so only sellected & worthy movies to watch in the cinema, the rest to play with pirated VCD or DVD.

a

Last night I just went to have a movie "The Mist" 《迷雾惊魂》in Star Cineplex with Fern. "The Mist", a movie directed by Frank Darabont, mainly star by Thomas Jane, Marcia Gay Harden & Alexa Davalos. Although there is nothing special or new in the story line, it is a nice movie & worth to have a watch in the cinema. After finished the movie, my feeling was messy & complicated, as the feeling of happy & upset come at the same time. Why?

a

Movie Poster of "The Mist"

a

I like & happy with its ending, as it is much different from other movies which with the same category or story line; the ending was out of my expectation. I thought the Thomas Jane & others will finally find a solution to solve & terminate the problem rised, but he isn't......!

a

A scene in "The Mist" (grab from dreadcentral.com)
a

At the same time, I really dislike the ending, it was a sad ending. While Thomas Jane with other 4 persons (include his son) are trying to get assistance from the outside in a vehicle in the mist with hidden dangerous, the mission failed as the vehicle is running out of the fuel. When they were dismay & thought that there is no way out, they decided to end up 5 lifes with 4 shoots............(to know the whole story, please watch the movie )............Thomas Jane remain alive & he just found that the "Mist" is just over with the rescue from the army teams.......!
a

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

a
My Words:
The moral of the story I learnt from "The Mist" is that, no matter how never surrender under any circumstance or to any one easily. As been taught by most celebrities --- "All the troubles rised must at least with a reason & a solution to fixed".

a

Never ever give up! (Have you see this picture before?)

a

The most simple reason that we mustn't give up --- we don't know when the un-desirable will turn into desirable; we will never know how far is the hope or success apart from us...it might be still far apart, very soon, or almost happen. If it is almost happen, but you just so impatience & can't wait & have just gave up, than it would be end up with a sadness & regrettable consequence.

Talk by Wilson Lim 2

Wilson Lim, a great mentor from Money & You is going to have another talk in Miri on 25th Feb. Yes, the talk is on tomorrow night (19:00P.M) in Ballroom Level 5, Imperial Mall Hotel. I just know about this talk through the Sin Chew Jit Poh yesterday morning (this shows that Im quite some times not read any newspaper liao...hihi).

a

Newspaper cutting from 星洲日報

a

Well, I noticed that Fern's brother has brought back 3 entry tickets toWilson Lim's Talk last night. He said that the free tickets are given by his friend. Anyway, he is unsure & can't confirm with me at moment whether he will attend the talk or not (high possibility he won't...I think). Of course, if he won't......hey~hey~hey......I surely will grab the tickets from him; otherwise I'll need to find my way to get the entry tickets as soon as possible.

Malay Friend Wedding Day

I & Fern just attent a Malay friend, Rini's wedding ceremony yesterday morning. She is Fern's x-coursemate cum good friend in Sibu Nursing Colleague. She is now posting in Marudi Hospital as a trained staff nurse.

a

The bride, Rini Binti Taha

a

The bridegroom, En Mohd Khairi Arman, a police officer form KL

According to Fern, Rini knows this guy, Mohd Khairi Arman through her elder sister introduction with the contact no provided. They (Rini & Mohd Khairi Arman) later know each other via the messaging & keep in touch closely with either SMS or phone calls. Don't know how & since when they started have feeling on each other, they seem fall in love...

As Mohd Khairi Arman is a policeman, he is too busy & hard to get his leave approved to come over to Miri to meet Rini. So no choice, Rini has make a decision bravely, she wanna fly to KL to meet with this guy who she tought that might be her Mr Right! She didn't bother the advices from her close friends like Fern & Hwei Chen. Finally she flied to KL somewhere around Nov 07 to meet her Mr Right for the very 1st time alone. Well, she seem had a nice days with her Mr Right there.

Not long after Rini back to Miri from the KL trip, she announced to her close friends that she wanna marry with the Mr Right. They all shocked? Anyway, it isn't a joke, Rini finally has dream come true & married with Mohd Khairi Arman on 3th Feb 2008. Wishing this new couple have a very happy wedding day and may them be well & happy!

This reminds me a post, "Online Dating - Is It Way The Way Of The Future?" by kennysia.com. Well, true love can happen at anytime & anywhere without our expectation. It just like the miracle(s)! So no matter how and what the condition, please don't ever to miss any chance to win youself a Mr Right or White Snow Princess. It just see how far you believe in Miracle Making; how dare are you in trying it up; and how confident are you to turn the wild dream or wish into the reality. In short, "Whenever here is a impossibility, there is a possibility too"!

Please Allow Me to Have Dreams

Well, year 07 just in history 4 days ago, no matter it was a good year or a bad year for you, everything is over, you have no point to bother about it anymore, why? Because of we can't just "immerse" ourself in the pleasure memories, as there are many many other good better things awaiting us to knock their doors and of course there are lots of challenge awaiting us to overcome too; at the same time we can't just trapped ourself into the unpleasure memories and let it being the obstacles to move toward, is time to climb up & is time to do somethings to change it, but first you must at least have some initiative & motivation!

a

I noticed that most of the bloggers have their so-called new year resolution, is a good sign, at least they know what are they wanted and what are they living for...this kind of people normally have clear mindset & goal(s) , doing the thing(s) step by step with proper planning, they are closer to the door of "SUCCESS"! In other words, they might be a bit "KiaShu"...:p

a

Mmm~~~Allow me to have my new year resolution too, please be one of my listeners and see if one day I have make it dreams come true?

a

1. Buy myself a All-in-One (3 in 1) scanner with printing, copying & scanning features within the first 1/2 year. Had do some survey on this item (include the market price), currently 2 brands are in my target -- Canon PIXMA MP145 (cheapest quotation: RM248) & HP Deskjet F4185 (cheapest quotation: RM268). The cartridge for Canon is more expensive than HP. I prefer the Canon.

a

2. I have stopped reading book since late of Oct (almost 3 months) due to too crazy with blogging stuffs. In year 2008, I'll become book worm again & read at least 1-2 book(s) a month. Between, as all these while only Mandarin books read, so will try some English books as well. So far only one English book bought, "Secrets of Internet Millionaire" by Stuart Tan. (Note: I will post the book review here each time I finish read a book)

a

3. Im a bad credit cards' debtor, recently I have around RM4K of bad debt for my Master & Visa card (of course for some of you, this is only a small amount). I'll try to clear the debt within the first 1/2 year and keep it below RM200 (or less) per credit card monthly.

a

4. Will register a domain for my blog to replace my blogspot if www.amei79.blogspot.com able to achieve at least 25 visitors (readers) a day consistantly even not doing blog hopping and etc for certain period. But may not doing so too (have a domain) even had hit the target, as in my opinion, if blogging only for fun blogspot or other free domain is more than enough; unless we are really interested in internet marketing (IM) and wanna turn our blogs into online money making blogs, then a registered domain is strongly recommended, as it is all about trusty & confidence.

a

5. Visit at least 2 places or have vacation trip at least 2 times in year 08, hope can make it during the Harvest Festival (Gawai) & Hari Raya. Places to visit in the list are Langkawi Island, Cameron Highlands, Mulu National Park (Caves), Singapore and etc.

a

6. Money saving of RM200-500 monthly in bank account, of course this is not my final aim, I'll try up an investment if the time & opportunity comes, Im targeting one of the OSK Funds which the rate is recently at a decreasing trend.

Goodbye 07 Welcome 08

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2008 H

a

Time past by just like a thunder, is time to say "Goodbye" to Year 2007 which will reach its end very very very soon (another 12 hours) and "Welcome" to the new year 2008 which we thought that it would be our new beginning with new hopes & dreams... :D

a

If you are just like me, think that year 2008 is a new beginning; perhaps you & me aren't 100% correct. Only those who not serious in life, who like to delay jobs & duties, who failed to plan the future, or who lack of self motivation, initiative, discipline & management...etc will think such way. Otherwise we always can have a new beginning at the next second, next minute, next hour, next day, next week, next month or to be exact, at any time. Anyway we will never be late if we wish to have a new beginning...! Of course we need an immediate "Action" to drives us onto the journey of the new beginning, so that we can meet with our wishes & dreams sooner or later. a

a

Wishing you a Happy New Year 2008, may you be well & happy...cheers!!!

We Determine Our Life & Future

My GF's younger sister just attent an AIA Insurance training course. Sorry Im not about to promote you the AIA insurance, but just wanna tell & share with you the few words (phrases) printed on the cover of the AIA Welcome-kit, that really impress & touching me:
a

a
1st phrase: "Today's Decision Is Tomorrow's Freedom"a

a

Everyone will need to involve in decision making, as part of our life. Don’t be too scared when come across with a crucial situation that need you to make decision. Too much of scare and hesitating in decision making will cause us waste more time & loss more chances. It doesn’t matter even the decision not precise at the first, as we still can try to correct & make it right afterward. Always bear in mind “Never Try Never Know” & “No Pain No Gain”!

a

a

2nd phrase: "Life Is All About Choices".

a
Ya, our life is really all about choices, now even be a millionaire not only is a chance, but is a choice too.

a

a
a

Write to High Educated People

Life and our future outcome won be always as what we desired, what we planned or what we expected, as the title given to my blog, everything keep changing, the only thing not been changed is “CHANGING” it self. Please do believe that we always have choice(s) (or alternative) no matter we are in a favorable or in an unfavorable situation, but first u must have a right attitude.
a
Now-a-day, uncountable of degree students jobless. They are either cant find a job (career) since graduated from college/university or since they had quit from the previous career. What is the main reason results in the above issue hard to be eradicated?
1. Wrong course choosen? By which the course is not popular or less prospective?
2. Too choosy on the career? Expect high salary, incentive or other benefits/allowance and etc?
3. The speed of country development in all fields are too slow to create job opportunities? (supply > demand).
4. Lack of experience, skill, knowledge, confidence results them unable to compete with others?
5. Or due to other reasons?
a
If u are one of them, what will u do? Keep jobless until u find a perfect (high salary, allowance, incentive...etc) and most suitable (which related to ur talent & field) job which macthed to ur qualification or education level? For me, honest speaking, if one day you found me work under the hot sun with sweating back at a construction base, or as a waiter at a Fast Food Restaurant, or as a saleman in a Super/Hypermarket, or what ever jobs which you thought that is unmatched to my qualification, DON’T be too surprise!!!
a
It is a choice or an alternative, it is not a shame for me as a degree student to become a temporary labor worker, waiter, saleman or etc while seeking better career, because at least I have income for my own daily expenses & basic demand. At the meantime, I learn / gain new knowledge, skill and experience by involved in different fields. But it is absolutely a big shame if I choosed to stay jobless and do nothing; eat, wear, stay and all other expenses to provide free by my old aged parents? 在家“吃老爸的老米，喝老妈的老奶”不是我最光荣的选择!
a
No matter you are a Degree, Master or PhD student or else, please do always remind yourself, this not mean that you are SUPERIOR, SMARTER or SUCCESS compare to those with lower education level; but it more sound like you have more priorities in certain aspects, more knowledgeable in certain fields and might have more opportunities and brighten future outcome...
a
For your better understanding, E.G:
To construct or build the Petronas Twin Towers is really a huge and challenging project. From the planning of the project, design of the artwork, choosing of the materials, to construct of the Towers, it required an experienced, skilled and professional groups of people to success the whole project. But did you realized or can you imaging that, the person who construct or build the Twin Towers were groups of foreign workers, which probably only attent primary education or totally not been educated? However, they are able to follow & understand all the instructions, complete all the tasks, and fulfill all the requirement that given or required by the professional groups.
a

So what do you think? Conclusion: Foreign Workers are SMART too, not only those high educated professional groups!
a

"Use Your Brain to Think" vs "Stupid"

Some people may thought that they are superior and smarter than other, they like to say: “Use your brain to think please!”, which sound like trying to scold people: “Stupid!”; sometime they even direct use the word “Stupid!”.
Hmm....just wanna clarify and sharing with u all, as I understood:
1. A died human, a syndrome down patient has a brain too, but dont think they can use their brain to think!
2. There is no stupid human in the world, but only those human who like to behaved liked an IDIOT.
3. A drunk human: “Im not drunk, u drunk!”
A mad human: “Im not mad, u mad!”
A stupid human: “...... , ......!” What u think a stupid human will says???
Last time I hate it when heard it, but now I have no more feeling on it, Im immuned! I would like to advice those “Superior” and “Smart” people to use their IQ & EQ to think and analyze things, instead of their brain.
