new year resolution!!

nearing the end of the year again!if anyone really notice,the time seem to fast much much faster today!..24 hours today doesnt felt like twenty hours ten years back then..hmm you know what i mean???..

anyway,thinking about this year resolution,beside rolling over last year resolution of trimming down the weight keke,2008 resolution is "living for my self not others ".

2007 was really like a year living for others.my weakness is that i cant say no to others when they seek me for help or assistance.i felt that i dare not said no because i know the feeling of being rejected flatly by people when i seek help..it is not a nice feeling you know keke...so that probably sub conciously i decided to said yes to anyone who seek my help cause i dun not want them to feel what i have felt,you know what i meant rite??

anyway i believe in what Sanjay Leela Bhansali said..you should not forge relationship in where you work or in any kind of environment..cause you would be burden by it..it would be very hard for you not to said no because you do not want to dissapoint..and the cycle goes on and on..and in the end it will lead to you to live life for others?hmm do you get what i mean??if not watch koffee with karan season 2..where sanjay and malika in were the celebrity..

k ..happy new year!!

Malliki sherawat.

love her or hate her,she is just
hot and controversial.
(cant comment on her acting cause i have not yet seen her movie.)
she has the attitude.the confidence.

you should have seen her in the talk show
Koffee with Karan season 2.

yah,She would be a Dominant D if she took the disc test.

Auld Lang Syne( old times)

Should old acquaintance be forgot,
and never brought to mind ?

Should old acquaintance be forgot,
and auld lang syne ?

CHORUS:

For auld lang syne, my dear,

for auld lang syne,

we'll take a cup o’ kindness yet,

for auld lang syne.

And surely you’ll buy your pint cup !

And surely I’ll buy mine !

And we'll take a cup o’ kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.

CHORUS

We two have run about the slopes,
and picked the daisies fine ;
But we’ve wandered many a weary foot,

since auld lang syne.

CHORUS

We two have paddled in the stream,
from morning sun till dine (dinner time) ;
But seas between us broad and roared
since auld lang syne.

CHORUS

And there’s a hand my trusty friend !
And give us a hand o’ thine !
And we’ll take a right good-will draught,
for auld lang syne.

CHORUS

kebangkitan anak muda kita dalam dunia seni hiburan & suara sangat memberangsangkan..
pencapaian hady,taufik dan imran di nusantara dan juga asia amat membanggakan..
tak juga lupa fendi,aliff dan juga by definition..

pencapaian seni teater & fesyen juga tiada kurangnya..

pencapaian kita dalam bidang akademik juga semakin tahun semakin baik..

walaupun kita sekarang menghadapi masalah sosial yang baru seperti keluarga pincang, kadar perceraian yang tinggi dan peningkatan kelahiran anak luar nikah,

saya percaya kita boleh mengatasinya seperti mana kita mengatasi masalah dadah yang dahulu kala menyelubungi masyarakat kita.


majulah melayu..

takkan melayu layu di dunia..

something to ponder

was there too much hype by the local media over foreign talent athletes when they clinched gold in the recent SEA games compared to when our local born athletes clinched gold??.

Team Singapore's women swimming team's captain Nicolette Teo achievements overshadowed by Tao Li's?

Our bowling team achievement bypassed by Table-tennis 7 gold haul?

our runners by the shot putter?

our gymnastic team?

our sailors?

are we forsaking our local talents over foreign ones?

tak payah bersalam,tak wajib.iya ke?

sedikit penerangan.

memberi salam dan bersalaman adalah dua perkara yang berbeza.

bersalaman ialah kelakuan dimana dua orang yang bertemu akan berjabat tangan kanan mereka lalu meletakkan tapak tangan kanan di dada kiri..simboliknya ialah orang yang kita bersalaman akan selalu dikenangi dan dekat di hati.
dimana kadang-kala yang muda akan mencium tangan mereka yang lebih tua sebagai tanda hormat

memberi salam pula ialah mengucapkan/mendoakan seseorang itu supaya hidupnya akan sentiasa dalam kesejahteraan.

bersalaman adalah adat melayu dan memberi salam adalah sunat dalam Islam tetapi wajib
dalam membalasnya

masyarakat melayu/islam telah menyatukan dua kelakuan ini dan menjadikan ia as "a daily greeting ritual".bagaikan sambil menyelam minum air.satu kelakuan yang amat baik dan mulia.

namun,sejak kebelakangan ini,ada segelintir masyarakat yang mula mempersoalkan kelakuan ini.
mereka mengatakan bahawa bersalaman tidak termasuk dalam syariat agama dan ia adalah satu adat lantas tidak patut diteruskan.

lain orang,lain rasanya.lain padang,lain belalangnya.setiap inidividu mempuyai pendapat sendiri.

tetapi bagi saya.

mengapa perlu kita berfikiran sempit?..

meremeh-temehkan perkara sekecil itu?

selagi adat tidak melanggar hukum,selagi itu adat boleh diteruskan.

semua perkara yang dilakukan perlu dilihat pada nawaitu kita.

iaitu niat.

"Singapore government embarked on an aggressive drive to attract immigrants to avert a population shortage as efforts to encourage people to have children failed"

yes,i do agree that this is a good policy to solve our declining birth rate and population issues in the short run..

but what i am concerned is whether are we prepared to face the social, political and economical issues that would rise in the long run from this policy that we are adopting?

From Crackle: Mrs hughes skewed views

the most frequent asked question for me now, during family gatherings would be

went to orchard yesterday..outing with fellow nsf..sam,ting and lo..had lunch at far east plaza..hmm realise that the place is becoming more foreign..as in, it is turning into global orchard..felt like as if you are in another country ...is this a good or a bad thing???

anyway,we then proceed to watch a movie,something goes with emporium..actually i want to watch alvin lah but you know,mr sam was so enthu with the emporium movie,so give way ..good rite me keke..

the movie was ok..out of 10,give 6..bring backs childhood memories " )

we went bk for dinner..after that i walk with them to somerset mrt..

on the way to the bus stop ..terserempak (saw) with the muses lolx..
ok putri and mus only..no children on tow yet.. not married yet btw kekeke..
actually they thought i ignored them lolx,but i really cant see far..eyesight quite bad lei..rabun jauh..

but if zulaiha then sure ignore lah,but this is the muses lei..good bunch of people..yah saw me outside,call me if i seem to ignore you except for zulaiha though :P

and it was a great day overall..spending time with my ns clique and also meeting the muses..although i just chat with the muses for a minute,due to my commitment elsewhere,it felt like i was back in institute all over again..arghh..kekeke..

siti carries lv,also must say.

"Siti carry lv bag to mecca.the only one among the pilgrims!what is she thinking!"

that was the headline in the entertainment segment.i was like what the heck.
seriously,i dont think siti pakai lv to show off or whatsoever.
probably that those are the only bags from her collection.
come on,she is wealthy,of course she would go for good quality and luxury items.and that was way before her haj.

wouldnt it be worst if she went out and bought brandless bags for her haj just so that people would not said anything about her trying to show off?and wouldnt it also be a pembaziran(wastage),something that is discourage by religion?

i felt asian newspapers should report in balance.of course,this kind of reporting would not be enticing,but we are asian.there are some values that we need to uphold.we should respect our artists,cause they are also human too.

Congrats Hady.1st Asian Idol.

Berserah English Translation

The world is closing im so alone
the door is locked and nobody's home
Desire is the key that i must own
Emotions got me losing control
Im losing control

But i know
its the way that i must live
even though
its so unclear, so unfair
god i know
there's a path for everyone
i must believe and keep holding on

i'm wishing i was somebody else
this world left me all by myself
now why do they keep playing with my mind
trying to break me down trying to make me blind
but i see

cos i know
its the way that i must live
even though
its so unclear, unfair
god i know
there's a path for everyone
i must believe and keep holding on

god i know
there's a path for everyone
i must believe and keep holding on

never let my fears conquer me
cuz i know in my heart what i can be
Holding On

“It was redemption. Even though he won Singapore Idol, he didn’t really got the treatment of a national champion. His win in Asian Idol was a sort of payback.” said Singaporean R&B crooner Imran Ajmain.

"The way he knelt and cover his face shows juz how down-to-earth Hady is. Even the contestants coax him to gather his emotions n that shows what kind of person he is, a very well-liked personality. His warm voice, prince charming appeal and affable character won him fans n therefre the Asian Idol." Teosianein179

"I don't understand what this song means, but his delivery of it is so sincere and heartfelt, I actually felt his emotions without even knowing what it meant. Music should be felt without any boundaries, and I guess this is how it should be. Go Hady, you rock!"dreamer246

"No MaTtEr WhAt HaPpEnS, lIfE gOeS oN, & iTs WilL Be A bEtTeR tOmOrRoW!".
haha if every complaint i told him is worth a dollar,and counting from the time i know him,i would said that he would have been a rich man now.

haha and for all complaints that i have made to all my close friends,we all would be millionaires by now.

i am also slowly trying to adopt the "law of attraction" and other positive way of life improvement methods.
although it is very hard to kick old habits, i am trying my best to change.
i do not know whether it is just coincidence or the law of attraction is doing its work,
life for me ,i guess is getting better and better.

i have move on.leaving most.bringing few.those few,please understand.let this be a test.only time will make it stronger.

i am slow at moving on..as in friendship not relationship "P ...

haha anyway i am so not totally over with friends from the past..people like fariha,malini,mus,jq,wq etc and not forgetting sis haha..keep reading ok ;P..



Now that it's all said and done
I can't believe they were the one
To build me up and tear me down
Like an old abandoned house

What they said when they left
Just left me cold and out of breath
Fell to far, was in way to deep
I guess I let them get the best of me

Well I never saw it coming
I should of started running
A long long time ago
And I never thought I'd doubt them
I'm better off without them
More than them, More than they know
I'm slowly getting closure
I guess it's really over
I'm finally getting better
Now I'm picking up the pieces
from spending all of these years
Putting my heart back together
The day I thought I'd never get through
I got over them.

They took a hammer to these walls
dragged the memories down the hall
Packed their bags and walked away
There was nothing I could say
When they slammed the front door shut
A lot of others opened up
So did my eyes so I could see
That they never were the best for me

Well I never saw it coming
I should of started running
A long long time ago
And I never thought I'd doubt them
I'm better off without them
More than them More than they know

i felt Singaporean Malays are having dilemma..

whether we should continue to preserve our culture and tradition or create newer one.

the older one said "pelestarian". while the younger asked for "pembaharuan".

and i said? keep some of the old ones.discard some of the old ones.and inject some new ones.

so all can be happy.

Anyway,i have bought a new phone,motorola z3, with impulse, without plan some more.!!.discover a hole in the pocket later heehe....and to think back about it, just bought that phone for the sliding function lolx..

still, hmm oklah..but heart desire to buy N series phone or E65..probably once my 21 month up in january, i buy a new one with 2 years subcription :P...

something about melayu!

vid about malays explained with a twist of humour :P
it is in english..just chorus in malay..but most of the content,english..





interesting one: NS Song

just ranting about drama..

i didnt watch 1st and 2nd season..but started watching 3 ..and i would said indonesian sinetron(soap opera) can be very heart-wrenching yet addictive..

i cant believe that sinetrons have such a powerful grip that it could make my mother to subcribe to cable..just for the channel sensasi!!..

anyway..i am easily hooked on dramas..and reality tv..

fyi..everwood is back with its fourth season(sunday 4pm)..seventh heaven in its last season(sunday 10am)..and i am starting to like brothers and sisters.....

oh btw..those who are into Heroes..season 1 is so last season!!.i on season 2 btw!..
when i was talking about heroes back then,people like... what was i talking about!
and now these people are the one who are so gaga about them!..please lah people!

clueless..shwe yee,the 1st yec chairman,is getting married this sunday..what is the customary procedure??gift or money?if money,is it on your goodwill or pre-determined by the couple??..first time invited marh:P..

anyway..regarding dinner functions..i am against the idea of having separate table setting..as in halal and non halal..i would rather have a buffet dinner and sit together with my non-muslim friends with their 9 dishes dinner course..rather then being huddle in one corner,segregrating myself from my non-muslim friends..

anyway,am buying a new phone in january..one that slide and with an organiser!!..

stop complaining! 'atas' punya orang melayu.

i have just enough of "atas"punya melayu punya orang.
those who has high education level and higher standard of living.

i am not saying that all of them got this pandang bawah punya mentality.
but i would said that handful of them that i have met and networked with,were having those lalang attitude.


always complaining that
"oh!apa nak jadi dengan orang kita.our malays are so mundur.our students not doing well.
"such a shame.those committing crime are mostly orang kita.apa nak jadi!"

but not doing anything to improve the situation.

stop being a moron.stand up and do something about it then.

and not just sitting down,drinking latte and bitching all day long.

come forward to contribute or volunteer in community self-help groups.

and volunteer with action.not for name or recognition sake.

how i see often that these groyp of people join untuk nama or expecting something in return.

"the secret" revealed

the secret on how to attract health,wealth and love hmm has been put into a video.

so those who are not into reading the book,you can just watch the video

it is just so wonderful that the authors decided to share it.

enjoy.

and dun forget to share it : ).

Alfian tidak layak kerana dia ?

Kenapa tidak Alfian Saat diberikan Anugerah Jauhari?

setelah mencapai kejayaan cemerlang dalam bidang teater dan penulisan?

kerana sumbangan beliau dalam bidang teater dan penulisan melayunya tidak meninggalkan kesan mendalam ke atas masyarakat melayu walaupun sumbangannya dalam bidang teater dan penulisan inggeris telah mendapat pujian dan pengiktirafan daripada masyarakat seni singapura dan juga serantau?

jika ini sebabnya,bolehkah penganugerahan Anugerah Jauhari ke atas Penerima Tahun ini dipertikaikan kerana bagi saya,saya tidak melihat kesan sumbangannya kepada masyarakat melayu dengan bidang yang diceburinya?

Atau kerana Alfian dikhabarkan seorang yang sukakan kaum sejenis?disebabkan ini,pihak-pihak terbabit bimbang untuk mencalonkan Alfian untuk Anugerah Jauhari kerana risau dengan tindak balas yang negatif daripada masyarakat melayu nanti?

saya rasakan jika ini adalah sebabnya,saya rasa amat sedih kerana ia menunjukkan bahawa kita masih berfikiran lapuk walaupun pemimpin masyarakat menyeru kita berfikiran global dan kehadapan.

walaupun dia tidak mengiyakan atau mentidakannya,saya rasakan faktor ini tidak patut menjadi penghalang bagi pencalonan Alfian.

jikalau benar khabar yang didengari,itu haknya.kita sepatut menasihati dan tidak pula meminggirkan dirinya.dan jika dia masih keras dengan pendiriannya,kita perlu menghormati.

cats in conversation

vid of cats having conversation..too cute to be missed..

uninvited guests at our retreat.

if you look carefully,you could spot an image of an

old man on the head of the guy in white.and not
forgetting the orb.


ok let me continue with the stories of the third kindS..emphasising on that S there..

ok basically we were allocated the "tekong" flat..it was on a hill and kind of eerie too.anyway "tekong"has two floor with each floor having four room with four beds.
interestingly, with our small group size,we only use five rooms..

and i was allocated to the second floor..the best part was, two of my room mates cant make it and another would come in the evening..and it was scary walking down the aisle as mine was at the extreme corner..i have to walked pass the three empty rooms..and a slight sound from the rooms, sure can make anyone jumps.

the room can be compared to a four star hotel standard..with balcony!!

it faces a tall tree.and the best part was that the balcony door was transparent and not tinted..there is no blind to cover it..i kept constantly playing a scene in my mind...

sleeping at night ..suddenly woke up.. accidentally glancing at the balcony..imagining all sort of things that can be seen from that angle!!!

it is not being paranoid but having the sixth sense of feel..it really bothers you..i try not to think too much but you really cant escape but to accept the "gift"..

anyway..let go to the encounter..or encounters in my case :( ..

around 10,after bbq and shower,we decided to go to the lounge to karaoke and play card games..haha westlife and bsb songs were the flavour of the night lolx..

we were happily chilling..when suddenly there was sudden gush of wind...it is not only me who felt it,someone was also asking why for a sec it was cold..i didnt make a fuss about it because i thought it was just the air-con..

an orb beside the the fridge

we continue till 2am when i decided to take a breather outside because i was feeling cold..and it was strange that the temp outside was colder that the temp inside..i felt kind of strange because i just step outside a moment ago,the temp was not this cold...and my body hair started to stand all over the place..i just knew that something was wrong so i decided to go back to my room..
so four of us,fahiz,faisal,ardy and myself went back...felt like something is following..probably just imagination...

while sending fahiz and faizal to their room,sudden chill upon entering theirs..considering that the air-con was not even on..

when i was in my room,i felt quite uneasy leaving those people back in the lounge and gut feeling makes me to just give them some advise.. decided to sms the i.c who were still karaoking,to keep the noise level down because i felt presence.. there was not only one and they are not friendly either...till now i also dunno what makes me to text that msg..

woke up in the morning..decided to share my encounter with my bunk mate,ardy..
i was surprise that he experience what i experienced and more suprisingly..when he told me that he has the gift of sight...

and my sudden "feelings" were back up with his sightings..

1)the chill in the lounge was the result of the presence of an old man sitting at the corner.
(an image of energy ball was capture in our digicam,floating at the corner of the room..it was lucky that the image of the man was not captured though).

2)the colder temperature outside the lounge room was because of the many "presence" outside the room...probably enrage by the our loud noise..

3)two things were following us when four of us went back to our room.

4)the chill in faisal and fahiz room was the result that one of the thing decided to stay at their room.

the other one?followed ardy and me!!.why then i have no feeling in my room?because the thing decided to stay along the alley and also that my room mate have the ability to shoo the thing away!..goodness!!!

1)energy ball was also captured in photos that we have taken.as it was taken by digicam..we cancel out the idea that the energy ball was the result of lightings..

The importance of being elite

chance upon the video..was inspired by the wee-shu-min saga..good animation..

Team Pic @ kent ridge

zhenghua YeC went to nacli this weekend for our retreat cum team building camp.
it main purpose was to built bond and camaraderie among the 2nd term.

because the current composition is made up of seniors,those from the 1st and the juniors,
who joined us in the 2nd.hence,2nd office bearers felt that a new era should be started and a team building camp would be a good platform to gel up the team.

and i really felt like i was in s.c back again...awwwwww....heehehee...

Playing Indian poker

i felt 2nd term is more dynamic,energetic and our bond is much stronger compared to the

1st.the team spirit is also higher .

i felt that this was more because of 2nd having more younger members.unlike the 1st,where many of the members were either married or working compared to 2nd, where most of us are students.

being horizontally challenge,i was very afraid of doing the activities as i may cause injuries to them ..oh no! they encouraged and motivated me to do them anyway ..but i felt really touch by their gesture ...and this means that there still people who cares for fat people lolx.


.ok side tracking haha...seriously i have to lose those kilos..there is no room for fat people in adventure and outdoors!!!and i so in love with adventure and outdoors!!!

anyway, thank-you ! fahiz and faisal for carrying me over the wall lolx..dun act macho lah..not heavy !!! i know my weight,and i aint light ok...

this retreat makes me evaluate my working style in yec.it made me realise that all things cannot go my way.i should not be stubborn.i should bring my point in a diplomatic way.there should be a diversified views. ok ok i should not be blowing my "good" trumpet.

i meant,the way i go about during yec meetings,must be change.

it was unfortunate that the nov's mtng was held before the retreat.i totally regret with the way i behave and brought up concerned issues during that meeting.

i love my 2nd term just like loving my 1st S.c!! :P.

btw...i have a tendency to do alot of blank-starings because i am thinking all the time in my mind and constantly having conversation with my inner self..ok dun laugh!!i am not crazy..talking to onself is not crazy..you also do talk to urself,dont you?..

but the think is, ladies would always get the wrong idea..that i am into them..this habit of mine is hard to die lei..so dun anyhow assume lah, can..dun wan turn friendship into sour fruit!!..

anyway quite late..i would continue with the best part of the camp memories..the encounter with the third kinds!!..just imagine...me,who can feel...realise only on the last day,that i was sharing with a room with one, who can see!!!..that the reasons for all that happenings!!

ok.ciao!!
