" If you were asked to rank family,friendship,education,career,and relationship,how
would you rank them?"
Just a moment ago, I was looking for good,thought-provoking materials to read again.Once more,Matthew's blog does not fail to amaze me with his thought-provoking entries.His latest entry,5 Aspects of life got me thinking again.You can find his original post here.Upon reading it,I felt that there is a need to come up with my own arrangement and rankings of several aspects of life and elaborate on them.
First of all,
1) Family
=>Well, undeniably family should be the top priority for everyone.After all,your parents were the one that brought you to this very world,and as much as I hate it, your sisters and brothers are the one that have the same blood running down your vein.Although there might be some disagreement at times, in the end of the day,I am still a part of my family and I will always put them above everything else.Although my parents could not satisfy my every desire,but I do know they try their best.Thus,I genuinely care for them,as much as they care for me too.Without them, I couldn't possibly be blogging here today =D.
2) Friends
=>Friends,they are also one of the most important aspect of my life, second only to family =D.I really do value my friendship with my friends.Needless to say,without friends,one would live a meaningless,lonely life.Friends are whom you can share your joy,happiness,sorrow and other emotions with.Friends are whom you can readily confide all your problems to.Friendship, a window to a man's soul =D.I do realize that the fact is, as we grow older, our circle of friends will eventually grow smaller.However,that does not prevent one from getting more friends and staying in contact with old friends right?I just want to say,to those that I am always talking to, to those that I am still in contact with,and even to those that I met only once or twice,even though the flow of time will eventually separates us,even though our memories might fade,but, the next time we cross our path, I would definitely say "Hi" ,as you will always be my friend,past,present or future! = D
3) Career
=>It is indeed a tough decision to make between career and education but I chose career over it.Why so?Well,I shall first elaborate on why career is that important.Living in the midst of poverty,having born into a middle-income family,I truly learned the importance of having money.No,I am not exactly the money-minded people that will use any means to get them but then again, I know, without having money, I will not be able to get anything at all.In this cruel,materialistic world,people have to participate in life's rat race to survive.So,this is the first importance of having a good career.Secondly,career might be defined as a job where we need to work relentlessly to earn money but to some lucky fellows, career is their way of living life to the fullest.No, I am not referring to those workaholics that work night and day just finding pleasure in working.I am referring to those dream jobs,the ones where you would be more than happy to do the works involved.Be it a pilot,a singer,a teacher,a dancer,or journalist,as long as you enjoy every second of it in your "job",that is your dream job =D.I would definitely be happy if I could have my dream job =D.
4) Education
=> Like I mentioned earlier,it is indeed a tough decision to choose in between career and education.If one were to rank education based on the education system now,which demands us ,students to get as many "A's" as you can just to go in good colleges,universities and so on, those are total rubbish I think.Our intelligence cannot be measured in simple means such as these "A's" and this statement is proved by many of world's success stories.Did you know that Bill Gates dropped out from Havard University ?:P So,it is clear that our results now does not really show our intelligence and our potential in the future ,yet we still need to strives for those "A's",just to lessen the worries of our parents and get a safe route to a good job.Though,in actual fact,education is a lifelong process.Every day, we learn and experiences new things.It is these knowledges that help us overcome hurdles in our future and live a better life.Frankly, I am still being quite indecisive about choosing career over education.However, I think that careers can co-exist with education too, as when we are working, we do learn new things too ,and that itself is education =D.
5) Relationship
As far as I am concerned, relationship isn't that much of an importance,not to me at the very least,not yet I guess .True,love is a wonderful thing and I do believe that everyone is destined to have one lifelong partner to be together ,living happily ever after with.I have yet to experience the magic of love yet ,and yes, of course I want to experience it.However,as for now, I truly believes that my current age is not the most suitable age to start a relationship and I doubt my true love will suddenly appear in front of me now also : P.Hence,relationship is ranked the last in my aspects of life.
Alright,since you have read until here,why don't you start blogging about your aspects of life too? Hehee, let this be some kind of tag.Those that read this, if you have time to do it, do blog about this, I am sure many of you are curious about how these aspects ranks in your heart too right?Do leave me a comment when you finish blogging about it.It will definitely be interesting to read it ^^].

28/10/08-A Day to Remember
Listening to :Always Online -JJ Lin
-Nice song,must listen !! XD
Did it ever occur to you that one day you wake up,thinking that you are late to school or late to do whatever things you are supposed to do,while in actual fact it is still very early?I did experience it for quite some few time and today,history seems to repeat itself again.The only difference is that today is not my schooling day and apparently I have nothing important to be done within the next few hours.
Today I awoke at 5 + a.m.Yes,I know many of you out there actually wake up earlier,everyday too but to me,this is my first time waking up so early on a non-schooling day and without the need of the alarm clock or even the awakening call (or yell) from my mom too =D.It all happen naturally.Needless to say,it was a completely surreal experience.The moment I woke up,I find myself oblivious to the surrounding,struggling just to get back to sleep.Then after a few times of rolling back and forth in my bed,it is apparent that my attempt to get back to my sweet dream world was futile.
So,still lying on my bed,I started to think.What in the world that made me wake up so early today?Well,nothing unusual yesterday,except the fact that I slept at 10 + p.m.Ah,must be all those nights of sleeping late that must be causing this.Maybe this is similar to oxygen debt.Maybe humans do have "sleep debt" too.Or perhaps the emotional turmoil within me yesterday was the cause of this event?Nevertheless,whatever is the cause of this,I am just glad that it happened.
Thanks to it,now I have got a few hours left till my normal routine.(I used to wake up at 11+ most of the time)Well,of course it is time to do something productive.This is such a rare experience and you expect me to be wasting time by sleeping and doing something pointless again?No way.No more succumbing to temptation and useless desires.No more thinking about petty things and doing unnecessary stuffs.Time to get down to business =D.

Thoughts
As the day passed by silently, and the day of the doom is approaching,I can't help but to feel anxious and scared.Truth to be told, I want to relax, I want to be carefree,I want to just lay back and don't give a single damn about this coming examination.Hey,wait a minute.Actually I can.Well,the final decision is up to me after all.I am the one who directs my brain to think and my muscles to move.I am the one that can choose to relax or to study under stress.So,why do I have to choose the bitter,latter choice?
That is the question I always posed to myself whenever I was down and do not have the mood to study.Given a choice , I am pretty sure most people would choose the premier choice of relaxing,sleeping and being in a cheerful and laid back attitude as time passes.I mean, why the heck would one like to plunge himself/herself under books and exercises with prodigious stress?Then again, every action must bear some consequences and there must be reasons supporting those actions.
So,if I were to just look a little closer to the choices, what will I discover?Lets see,if I were to choose to relax , then definitely I would be in much happier mood,and time shall passes very quickly and then YEEE HAAA,time for real entertainment with friends =D.But then again, the consequences? FAIL..Yes,that would probably be the examination result if I keep on slacking.Thinking about this result really sends a chill down my spine.I hate failures.I really hate them.Failures are the most tormenting and depressing thing that could ever happen to anyone.Or at least that is what I thought.
Through some horoscope readings, I have been informed that I have a tendency to be dominating,in whatever I am involved in.I couldn't agree more on this.I really have the desire to surpass others and win them in whatever I am involved in.However,in academics, I am just not the studious type.I couldn't even touch the borderline of their high standards,much less compete with them.Why is this so?Sure,being a lazy and evasive student,I can probably give many excuses and reasons regarding my performance (e.g lack of time , not conducive environment ,naturally stupid and etc etc )but deep down, I know that the very reason for my bad performance , is simply because I am lazy.Actually, I think everyone is naturally smart,and was given the same amount of intelligence and time.It is just the environment, and one's attitude that make the difference.
If one is willing to learn, and provided the teachers are good and a conducive environment is provided,I don't see why he/she can't be a genius?That being said,if anyone is willing to put in effort and have an unwavering determination,definitely he/she would be able to excel in whatever he/she is doing.So,that means I have to cope with those reference books and exercises just a bit longer huh ?Even though, I do not have passion for it,I still have to study it,just for the sake of getting an A.See how ridiculous is the educational system in M'sia now?Frankly, if I could, I would just go straight to the course I love and pursue my interest.That would be more meaningful and definitely I would be able to "study" it happily.Life will be a lot easier if the subject you are studying is the subject that you loves.
Oh well,enough with all these rantings,not like these few rants of mine will change the educational system in this country(At least not in this few years I guess).Now,back to my conflicting mind.So, in the end ,rather than relaxing under the sunlight, entertaining myself with some dramas or movies, I have to immerse myself in those thick and heavy "educational" and academic books,huh?Well,if that's what I have to do in order to score,so be it.After all,in about two months time,it will all come to an end.
On a totally unrelated note, I have just gotten the result of my ICAS English test result.I was quite shocked by the result.Well,frankly, I dunno whether or not I actually deserve the result as I see there are many others that I felt should get better results.Somehow, I am still quite dissatisfied as upon reviewing the paper,I am quite frustrated at some silly mistakes here and there.If I did rectify those mistakes, I could have gotten a better result or even a higher grade.But,in the end,this has already passed,and after all,there are some questions that I actually got correct due to pure luck.So,I guess it is quite balanced =D.Besides,this paper did benefit me in one way or another.So,thats it for today.Off I go to immerse myself in books again.Oh,btw,to those suffering the same fate as me to face SPM in the next few weeks,good luck =D You are not alone !

Good Luck.
Listening to : 一路向北 ( Yi Lu Xiang Bei ) by Jay Chou
As major examinations are approaching for nearly all the students around my age and other students too will be having their important final examinations, I would like wish you all, everyone,Good Luck!!!May you all excel in your examination and get desired results.
*******
Alright,now back to my personal life.Today,I discovered a very interesting piece of video in youtube.It is this video, that completely change my moods and somehow touched my feelings.Yeah,perhaps I was being too sensitive( and was exaggerating too much ) but that aside, this video is really amazing and is definitely a must watch for musical fans that demands nice covers of songs.Apparently this video is a video montage made by some guys in Ngee Ann Poly in singapore which features their cover version of jay chou's 一路向北 ( Yi Lu Xiang Bei )[ Trust me,its nice especially near the end.The vocallist's voice is definitely amazing ].Apart from that,their way of presenting the video is also interesting.I mean, it would definitely be nice if we were to do some video montage of some important events in our life or the experiences we had in school or college and to view it later when we are older.That would definitely bring backs the nostalgic feeling of what we are doing in the past.
I really hoped next time, I would have a chance to do this type of video too.. with friends and all.. that would definitely be nice =D.Oh yeah, today I watched the MV of 稻香 ( Dao Xiang ) from Jay Chou's new album also.Again,needless to say,another great masterpiece from a talented artist.Jay Chou's unconventional and creative song theme is once again being demonstrated in his new single,as he discussed the life of poverty and how we should strives to be happy even we are poor.Simply amazing! How many artists in the music industry nowadays can take such approach to discuss one of the most important aspect of our life and yet still presents a loveable piece of music?
Upon watching that MV, I was taken aback by the simplicity and the soft tune of that song,and yet when I looked at the lyrics,it is complex and meaningful.True enough, in this hectic world we are living in right now, most of us are ignorant.Ignorant to the people around us, ignorant to the life we are living... and ignorant towards the life of others.This MV shows us, just how meaningful and important it is, to just take a minute, to sit down, to relax ,and just see the world at it's simplest form.No stresses, no rushes and no more those hustles and bustles from work.Just relax and smile, reminiscing those happy and bittersweet moments in your life,reflecting all those that you had done and move forward again with a new passion
.If one could just do that everyday, then definitely one would lead a better and happier life.So,smile =D and let others smile back at you.
Ok,dream time's over,time to go back to bearing the responsibility of a student.Once more, good luck to those that are having examinations and for those who aren't having examinations, enjoy and have a good day =D.
As major examinations are approaching for nearly all the students around my age and other students too will be having their important final examinations, I would like wish you all, everyone,Good Luck!!!May you all excel in your examination and get desired results.

Dreamer,once more.
Listening to : Gao Su Wo[告訴我] by Danson Tang Yu Zhe
" Chasing after endless dreams, only to find that it is impossible to achieve "
Ah..it has been a while since I last blogged here.Well,yeah , because there hasn't been anything interesting happening in my life lately ( or anytime soon),so that explains the lack of updates...As usual, nothing memorable,interesting, nice things happening.Why? This week is holiday right? And it is one week one too.So,why am I remain stuck at home for this few days ( and the days to come ) as if I am in prison?The reason is simple.... because the FREAKING SPM is approaching,FAST!I can almost see the ghostly image of the SPM examiner holding a death scythe coming to my table and say "Your biggest,most terrifying,hardest examination in your whole life starts NOW.",smiling cunningly in the process.
Alright,maybe I was exaggerating ,geez must be due to the influence of those comics and animes.Nawh,SPM is nothing, it is just some test that you will pass en route to college,university,whatever ,right?We should just face this with calm,laid-back attitude... just waiting for the time to come and pass, right ?
NOOOOOOOOOOOO.Crap you.No way am I facing this one with a laid-back and carefree attidude.I am gonna die if I do that.This is it... the moment I pumped in all my vigor and enthusiam.The moment I have to give in everything I have.... just to survive it.Sigh,looks like I will be in this prison, being a living zombie for the next few months .
Oh yeah,by the way, I changed the lay out because the images in the old layout had "expired".So,being a lazy guy I am, I decided to not reupload those images and just change the whole lay out again.Ironic huh ?
Alright,back to my thoughts.Yes,as the title of the post suggests, I am a dreamer,once more.Yeah,sure,dreamers are people that only dreams and never succeed in life.However,without dreams,can one even succeed in doing something?Every action behind it must be supported by some sort of reasons or dreams.It is because of this dreams that they,the rich and successful people envisioned when they were smaller, do they achived their current successes.For years, I had held the belief that this statement is true,that anyone with determination and efforts can make their dreams come true.But now,it seems that this belief of mine is gonna take a twist on the road.
I have many dreams.From amazing and realistic dreams to outrageously ridiculous and illogical dreams,I believe almost everyone around my age would have a lot of dreams too.I,for one had always been a big dreamer.Dreaming to be a actor,singer,graphic designer,movie director,software engineer and heck, even a superstar( I know,silly right?),I was never the type that gets satisfied with normal life.But how many of those dreams would actually come true when we grow up?Ask any successful adults now and I am pretty sure most of them will tell you " Actually,when I was young, I don't plan to involve myself in this kind of job, and I would probably never imagine myself working this job then"Yeah,this is the cruel reality,when we grow up, how many of our childhood dreams will still remain intact with us? Facing the materialistic and harsh world, would we still be able to stand firm and hold our dreams tightly?Even if we does believe in it, will our dreams really become true?
Yes,this is the dilemma I am currently facing now,to keep on believeing in some dreams that aref fading away now, or to let go of them ?I was a dreamer who believed every dreams could be realised with proper determination and efforts by oneself.However,as I continue growing up,the belief I had was slowly fading.Until finally it came to a halt.Enough,I can't deny the truth anymore.The truth is, not every dreams can become true.Dreams,require the proper skills,correct people,pure luck and right timing to realise.Dreams don't just happen because we want it.That would be a miracle,not a dream anymore.As I came to realise that harsh truth,it shattered myself.Knowing that some of the dreams I have been keeping for years are nothing but mere unachiveable illusions, tears almost came rolling down my cheeks.
Isn't it depressing?Knowing that there is something that you have so much passion and interest in ,but unable to indulge in that field and achieve success in it ?That is my current emotion now.For the past few days, I have been riding an emotional roller coaster due to this dilemma.But,enough is enough.It is time to put a stop on this topic.Dreams are meant to be pursued.As a man, I can't forsake those dreams that I am willing to sacrifice anything for.Yes,they are worth it.I might not possess the proper talents for it,I might not be lucky...and I might never be the person for it,but forget that,I shall never give up pursuing those dreams...Yes,call me silly, naieve , or even immature.But with efforts and determination, I shall compensate for my lack of talent... and ultimately reaching my dreams.So shall it be,I will be a dreamer once more.
