Better to say that mind is controlling the body.<br /><br /><br /><br />It was already a decision made to meet my piano teacher today and tell her I wanna stop learning.<br /><br /><br /><br />But after reaching her house, sat down, touched and played the piano, which I had not practiced for 2 weeks, decision changed. The flow of the finger was surprisingly under control though had not practiced for 2 weeks. And I totally love the touch of the grand piano, unlike the piano I previously used during at Chambers Music Center, this is different. It's real and solid. The flame of passion to learn piano revived. It was close call that the ambers of that passion were gone. And my teacher passed me the exam pieces today and I've chosen the pieces for exam, hopefully next year.<br />tchaikovsky, bach, liszt, gershwin, debussy..du du du du du<br /><br /><br /><br />Really love piano, as it's so wonderful that notes and dynamics can tell a story. Music is a language. It's universal and engages people right from within.<br />how can you not fall in love with it....<br />Luckily I chickened out and did not quit.<br />Today's my first day learning P at my teacher's house and no longer going the music center.<br />Sungai Wang makes me dizzy.simoyoungyounghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07773258797213322715noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-755527668102368212.post-87986131387287834572010-06-21T14:02:00.000+08:002010-07-10T23:27:24.688+08:00puzzle of lifeI am enjoying my Monday afternoon at home, with my mom and nephew. Finished 2 cups of tea and reading "What your dog can teach you about living a happy life" by Matt Weinstein and Luke Barber. I am a slow reader, that's why I am still half way reading it. This is cause I was really grasping every meaning of the chapters. It was so meaningful that I think everyone should read it, even though you are not a dog lover and don't understand what's like to have a dog.<br /><br />So, my summer break started. And I think it's a good time to recollect my thoughts. I spent last summer for expedition. I hope I will spend this summer for "myself". I really wanna find out what I really want. I am 21 now, but still I think I'm yet to think like a 21. Honestly, I have not really find my dreams yet, means I do not know where shall I go after I graduate (though passing my 2nd year's final still an unknown...=P).<br /><br />Yes, I am greedy, there's so many stuff I wanna do. Especially seeing my friends' photos telling about them traveling around are so much fun and I wanna do that too so badly.<br />But...after reading that "dog" book, I realized I can be satisfied sometime just sit down under the blue sky, enjoy that afternoon with a cup of tea/coffee and a good book. I admit that I like to simplify complicating stuff and complicates simple stuff. It's all about the balance I'm looking in life. Looking for this balance could be hard sometimes but I believe it's there and we just need to find it. Still, it's because I'm greedy and wanna have a sip of every bits of life. My adaptability, is so high that sometimes I accept too much things and it's not good cause it will make you lose your own standing.<br /><br />Lately.....I feel I am very far away from my friends, not the physical distance, the distance of our souls. Now, I really don't understand what are they thinking and not sure if I can see them again in the future or chat with them again. One of them is so cool that I admired her actually but now I feel like she's so far away from me now. One of them is so sweet that you can just talk with her anything like there's no barriers, but now I am worry it won't be the same again. And I miss DT so much, that i dreamt of them yesterday.<br /><br />No matter how hard life become, I know, that there's always family backing me up. I love them. But I think I have taken them for granted sometimes and disappointed them so many times. It's not okay.....I know they have expectations for me, but I hope that they hope for my happiness and I pray hard for their happiness and health too. I know dad seldom tells me about his financial problem, but I know there's a problem, cause it shows in his face. He always says that I do not need to worry, liar...how can i not ?! But he loves me,I know. We know, same genes, we just don't know how to show it.<br /><br />There's so many puzzles in my life waiting to be solved...but is there a solution ? I would say yes and no. It's a wisdom I need to learn how to grab it and let go at the right time, still learning anyway. And I'm not alone, thank god for that. I'm feeling gratitude to have family and great friends around, born in such a beautiful country but not well-governed, but with good food, good drinks, good books, wonderful beliefs.<br /><br />Yes, thank You for that. It's life, Dino. It's amazing, especially seeing a new-born and how he grows and develop, it just feel amazing. How we the homo sapiens, evolved, is already amazing itself. Sadly, some are going towards the dark age. Luckily, there are always people who fights against that dark force.<br /><br />Puzzles, are not puzzles, it's all about time,faith and effort.... when all come together as ONE.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDIyJUP-8zavwaXctoBrVyPDV_VJXF8h6riVv0CnXXIa76UYcHdO7A5P_gFXmZNgp-iracjVnZkLWkUDXuGh0gPIeGtKlw8bdF6FWw5mifKlX6uTqk5hnuxM2gQPFzShcb_AN66nwGWVQ/s1600/gandhi.jpg"><img style="WIDTH: 97px;

But, at the end, i think I'll end up with a blank mind wandering the street without direction.<br /><br />When someone gave you advice or comments, and then you felt your heart sank and the burden. This is because you knew you can do better but you just didn't, that's why your heart felt that way when you received comment and advice from somebody else, be it positive or negative.simoyoungyounghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07773258797213322715noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-755527668102368212.post-66187378703370521342010-01-19T18:32:00.001+08:002010-01-19T18:37:11.063+08:00stop!!STOP those PDA's in front of me !!! grrr !!! you don't know i will get lemon-ed.simoyoungyounghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07773258797213322715noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-755527668102368212.post-59077455817507582492010-01-18T00:14:00.002+08:002010-01-18T00:25:22.243+08:00哪吒one of my best childhood memories, watched it countless times, you know when tapes are still being run and fast forward and reverse were an frequent options in the remote control.<br /><br />Love this cartoon so much, remember watching it when i was 4 or 5 i guess, cant really recall. I knew i cant really understand the chinese spoken in the cartoon during that time (c'mon, i was only 5...). Though I've just discovered in youtube and found out that it was produced in 1979, the music arrangement and the animation (for that era) were really outstanding and amazing !!! Guess that was partly a reason why i like heavy oriental stuff. Feel it now, grateful to my parents. They did not actually directly putting this on me, it's like an influence, positive one i can say. I love cultural things.<br /><br />Like this cartoon, though i'm young, i remember i've cried watching it, forgot which part was the sad part, then this cartoon made me got a lot of imagination like playing with the towels imagine it got some super power like what i saw in the cartoon, flinging it like i will be like ne zha~<br /><br />hmm....realised that i've been very retro these days, keep looking for the things and movies and songs i've heard or seen during my good-old days, maybe it's part of the ageing process, getting retro. ha!!<br /><br />to me, there were too many things we've tried to improvise and forgot that sometimes keeping the old is good.<br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Wz80bkpnwvI&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Wz80bkpnwvI&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>simoyoungyounghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07773258797213322715noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-755527668102368212.post-22482614993578703642010-01-16T23:52:00.002+08:002010-01-16T23:58:57.042+08:00UP....an extraordinary plot<br /><br />An animation about a senior citizen floating on his house with a kid, named Russell to an island called paradise fall, a simple yet touching story about their adventure. Just finished watching it my family 5 mintues ago.<br /><br />I always being easily attracted by stories that depicts human relationship beyond lovers or friends. The connections between Carl (the old man), Russell (the kid) and Dug the talking dog, it's so heart-warming. The plot just gave me that kinda velvety feeling...<br /><br />Please watch "UP" if you get the chance to, try to experience the heart-warming and a rush of sweetness that you've long forgotten. We tend to forget the feelings and when we realise that there's so much we've missed with our buddies and families, it just gave you that thought, "how i long to have a cup of hot coffee with you now and chat throughout the day..."simoyoungyounghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07773258797213322715noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-755527668102368212.post-30097611568785179772009-12-31T02:02:00.002+08:002009-12-31T02:29:34.630+08:00review-reviewIt's time to say.......i love 2009<br /><br /><br />2009, didn't start off well. Why i think so, cause at that moment, i felt lost, i don't know why and what the heck i am doing, think it's an usual occurrence to people like me, clueless... And perhaps i missed so many great times with my fellow kampung mates, felt even worse. Then it's chinese new year !! Pretty excited, as always, love doing decoration with family and hang out with them, feasting and occasional nagging from leelee when she thought i didn't help out well. And then, yea, my class, not good, skipped classes and realized that it was not good, didn't really pay attention in class. Chaos, first quarter of 2009.<br /><br />Then, signed up for expedition in second quarter. That was when i was forced to manage my time properly. Before really focusing in fundraising, i had to pass my exam before i could embark on one. So fortunately it went well and completed my fundraising within in a month. Thank you to my beloved family, esp mommy and my dear dear lovely mates, cant live without you guys.<br /><br />Climax of the year, expi, dude! The experience of a lifetime. Met people. learnt new skills, passionate about what am i doing now and cherishing the life i am having now, all were inspired from 09E. It happened, so fast, counldn't really grasp every moment of it. Still misses every single thing of 09E untill now, guess anyone will too if they've been there before. So hard to explain with words, but yet the feeling so strong within me.<br /><br />Back from expi, continue for my 4th challenge, contribute back home. Yea, so i've chosen to be active in Raleigh KL and continue to inspire more young people here to go expedition. Felt my life being strongly toxicated with Raleigh. Cant really spend a day without an element of Raleigh in it.<br /><br />But happy times, of course bad times, came, hit me so badly i couldn't breathe properly for few seconds. Two of my besties' father passed away. There's this one moment i hate myself that i did not know how to comfort them and was not by their side. I think i was not such a friend at all...but now am glad to hear from them and they are just doing fine and carried on well.<br /><br />More people i've met this year, more conversations i've had. 2009, it's not that bad.....All the things happened in 2009, gave me a feeling that, "we have hope, people, have faith". Say, like copenhagen climate change conference, natural disaster aroud the world but you could see people around the worlds too helping out each other. Now i realise i am those kind of "second chance people". I am somehow turned into a person who don't give 100% certainty, but will forever leave some space for possibilities. Guess i got this from adam smith ???<br /><br />Love the feeling having people around me, love nice chats, enjoy milo+a stash of cinnamon, life...oh life..oh life....du du du du du.simoyoungyounghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07773258797213322715noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-755527668102368212.post-11109611390863161262009-10-15T23:38:00.014+08:002009-10-18T21:34:08.398+08:00>>>>Drake says:...<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-PhAQsRGZ0D4VXU9siE9Yap3a4PJAIDRTPjrpKlOKYWiJni5GN8b4I_ukCPFiSovLpLE-p8wwCYmWk6Pv_UeaWoPa5udEOEDjPqruOuUD2IiJsKvW9ddDglc3TT0B1jmYIypZod54eLE/s1600-h/paint.bmp"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Arial;font-size:13;" ><span style=""></span></span><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-size:130%;" ><span style="font-family:arial;"></span></span></a><br /><span style="font-size:130%;"><span style="font-family:arial;">her name is Koong Hui Yein, as i was told, she just got back from Raleigh Borneo Summer Expedition 09E. She said, she spent an absolutely awesome 10weeks at Borneo.<br /><br />Before joining Raleigh, Yein felt constantly trapped in her current life, she keep asking herself, " now, beside studying, what else i could do? ". With this question in mind, she started to seek her own adventure. By chance, her cousin sister, who too joined the 10 weeks Borneo Expedition on 2006 told her about it. Since then, she's determined to join Expedition when there is chance. In fact, she's bit scare of what would expedition be, she's always doubt that whether she can face the challenges ahead, expedition taught her that with determination and effort, yes it's possible to achieve what she desire. It was the type of confidence expedition had taught her to possess. She's more calm and steady when dealing with stuff now. Now, she learn to live and laugh everyday~ she learned that there is always something around the corner, just waiting for her to explore. Expedition triggered her curiosity.<br /><br />So, i met Yein at Kota Kinabalu on 8th of September, i joined her to visit Kampung Pinapak, a small little village in the district of Pitas, Sabah. It was located somewhere up North of Sabah. I was told that it was one of the poorest region in Sabah. Yein was at Kampung Pinapak for her community phase. Her project was aimed to build a water gravity feed system for the village. I was so excited when she told me about the project, so i decided to tag along the group consist of 4 girls ( Yein, Su Lan, Shu Woan & Kar Lye) for their post-expedition trip to Kampung Pinapak.<br /><br />On 09/09/09, we departed from Kota Marudu to Kampung Pinapak in the afternoon. We traveled there on a four-by-four. After a 2 hour bum-bumped road, we reached the beautiful Pinapak.<br /></span></span><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-PhAQsRGZ0D4VXU9siE9Yap3a4PJAIDRTPjrpKlOKYWiJni5GN8b4I_ukCPFiSovLpLE-p8wwCYmWk6Pv_UeaWoPa5udEOEDjPqruOuUD2IiJsKvW9ddDglc3TT0B1jmYIypZod54eLE/s1600-h/paint.bmp"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-PhAQsRGZ0D4VXU9siE9Yap3a4PJAIDRTPjrpKlOKYWiJni5GN8b4I_ukCPFiSovLpLE-p8wwCYmWk6Pv_UeaWoPa5udEOEDjPqruOuUD2IiJsKvW9ddDglc3TT0B1jmYIypZod54eLE/s320/paint.bmp" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5392857819243495042" border="0" /></a><span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:130%;" >According to Yein, we were going to overnight at Mr. Jeffrin's house, a very generous uncle who gave us such a warm welcome and made me felt i am not a stranger at all. So, after we stopped by Mr.Jeffrin's house half an hour, Yein was anxious to see how was the outcome of her hardwork and sweat for the past 3weeks, and decided to go and see the dam she and her team built. Together, we walked up 2 big and 3 small steep hills before we reached the entrance of trail. That trail, which was 300 meters, lead us to the water source for gravity feed system and was where the dam built. It was quite well hidden among the trees. The water was so clean and clear, compare to the river. </span><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-PhAQsRGZ0D4VXU9siE9Yap3a4PJAIDRTPjrpKlOKYWiJni5GN8b4I_ukCPFiSovLpLE-p8wwCYmWk6Pv_UeaWoPa5udEOEDjPqruOuUD2IiJsKvW9ddDglc3TT0B1jmYIypZod54eLE/s1600-h/paint.bmp"><span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:13;" ><span style=""></span></span></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdcxoZZC-iEvSvdUrVfQnWUpvTdN7Z21U1sgep9I6grrilrxqsfBaKF__vkfKmptWeTDzWK69F6q_vzS0MdGQ-DLWW4v28n_5_FEdQTcpVvAoSE_A0cHQ8AL8XlllCpoAV7K_eiUbUxi4/s1600-h/04.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdcxoZZC-iEvSvdUrVfQnWUpvTdN7Z21U1sgep9I6grrilrxqsfBaKF__vkfKmptWeTDzWK69F6q_vzS0MdGQ-DLWW4v28n_5_FEdQTcpVvAoSE_A0cHQ8AL8XlllCpoAV7K_eiUbUxi4/s320/04.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5392857420673540578" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijUpkM_jaggtmdT705Iyl5qPmdk6GptywP9S-R-2axPi61UEGzBP31QFNXeOZe5BP69jY79FgysIqOYhthPHgnDf6k-ioKRE_87tucgX8qgRoTz7FH2dSFT0a8W-7qydFc4gWylEgYpSM/s1600-h/05.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 272px; height: 204px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijUpkM_jaggtmdT705Iyl5qPmdk6GptywP9S-R-2axPi61UEGzBP31QFNXeOZe5BP69jY79FgysIqOYhthPHgnDf6k-ioKRE_87tucgX8qgRoTz7FH2dSFT0a8W-7qydFc4gWylEgYpSM/s320/05.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5392857181199114802" border="0" /></a><br /><span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:130%;" >Said Yein, before the gravity water feed was built, villagers rely on river and rain water for water.

The girls turned on the tap and saw water flowing out! Yein felt really happy to be part of this project because she felt she had made a difference. </span> <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsp8gMq-nbUgD6mQSM9Auv1msCEVGjO2sFU0tOivq6sXYpXP1z21R3AD-evuVwCpWzYHl8kdzcmD6bj0GgnGUEl0rBt0mCJSlEkk0IOLcBIQ6TSciCfJnw2weBvH7mN9KRUv0gd1eM_YM/s1600-h/hill.jpg"> </a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNhvRrBY8eUmeEaEqrZsxcEhikO46zTg4UGLPYvWMgVhuwsA-ML41uQ6IBKxxwgkEs_D5LWrygvRPse2DMqQeOUnIy1554N8DSAkixUL8Lyn5kRSP9OLiPxBtlHdlwV4-j10_7tTqlOQ8/s1600-h/03.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNhvRrBY8eUmeEaEqrZsxcEhikO46zTg4UGLPYvWMgVhuwsA-ML41uQ6IBKxxwgkEs_D5LWrygvRPse2DMqQeOUnIy1554N8DSAkixUL8Lyn5kRSP9OLiPxBtlHdlwV4-j10_7tTqlOQ8/s320/03.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5392856673130830034" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsp8gMq-nbUgD6mQSM9Auv1msCEVGjO2sFU0tOivq6sXYpXP1z21R3AD-evuVwCpWzYHl8kdzcmD6bj0GgnGUEl0rBt0mCJSlEkk0IOLcBIQ6TSciCfJnw2weBvH7mN9KRUv0gd1eM_YM/s1600-h/hill.jpg"> <img style="cursor: pointer; width: 252px; height: 190px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsp8gMq-nbUgD6mQSM9Auv1msCEVGjO2sFU0tOivq6sXYpXP1z21R3AD-evuVwCpWzYHl8kdzcmD6bj0GgnGUEl0rBt0mCJSlEkk0IOLcBIQ6TSciCfJnw2weBvH7mN9KRUv0gd1eM_YM/s320/hill.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5392856840067441426" border="0" /></a><br /><p class="MsoNormal"><span style=";font-family:Arial;font-size:130%;" >So, after the visit, the girls went to cross the newly built suspension bridge which its existence will overtake the present low-level crossing at the river.

We had corns which were bought from Kota Marudu to roast with. Then, by chance, Mrs.Jeffrin spotted shrimps in the river. They could be easily spotted because the river water was clear on that day. So, holding Yein's parang made in Long Pasia, she bang the shrimps with it. So, all the girls were excited by the catching of the shrimps and started the shrimps hunt. Other than shrimps, they spotted small fish too !! They ended up having corns, shrimps and fish for barbeque, all the fresh food with the natural freshness. I couldn't eat as, you know... Beside the fire, i too enjoyed gazing the stars. Then when it was near 11pm, suddenly, the little girl, Jeffrin's daughter spotted a black figure not far from us. We were scared, especially when that figure became closer and closer. That's when we started to pack our sruff and get ready to leave. So, when it get so close, we all walked quickly to leave that spot, but strangely while we stareted to walked, that figure ran away, so quick we can't really see what or who was it! weird....

Then flashbacks.....being at this age, it's hard sometimes, struggling to get through silly thoughts and unpromising dreams. So many temptations around me, yet i cant stop them all. I am too greedy at times, never knowing what the consequences of those choices. Well, when the time i got hurt, then i only i knew. But, stubborn me, cool-headed me, strong pride in me, i rather get hurt than being regret. the best i ever had? the best i ever had? the best you ever had ? the best you ever had? are those memories and those dreams. ... . .not being a slag, it's my ultimate goal. perhaps i don't even know what the hell am i expressing right now, it's just a thought of my messy mind. Must spit some of them out so i could get some free space for my studies. get it out out out.<br />...alright, into <span style="font-weight: bold;">artic monkeys</span> lately, so possibly being a lil... ...messed-up</span><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 153, 0);"></span>simoyoungyounghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07773258797213322715noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-755527668102368212.post-25404019390622206972009-03-21T00:05:00.002+08:002009-03-21T00:15:18.476+08:00saborOui~ i've got my handbook of expedition to sabah today. Roughly gone through it, just roughly, already i felt butterflies in my stomach. The excitement, the anticipation, emotions stirred up. Yes, i am determined to go sabah this year. It's the moment that i've been waiting for. I longing to go there, to serve and learn. And when i come back, i hope my experience could in fluence my friends and hope they would join the parade too.<br /><br />The above statement shows my optimism. But in reality, not everything goes well. Firstly, fundraising is a BIG prob to me. Then, to be honest, my mom still don't understand the whole picture of expedition, so she'll keep on nagging till the day i depart. And i am not equipped yet, rucksack, shoes, vaccination, swim test, ect.. So many things. Yet.. time management is crucial here yet i am still always procrastinating...aiyoooo!!! somebody scold me please.......argh... no place for me to complain my frustration, blog here so mayb my friends would see it and ask me about expedition <if>simoyoungyounghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07773258797213322715noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-755527668102368212.post-43605612609683869872009-01-16T17:39:00.002+08:002009-01-16T17:50:44.961+08:00to answer my friend(turtle)'s question.My name is Koong Hui Yein.

MJ, who gave such a special childhood memories, filled with melodies from him. I just hate seeing him like this today, bankrupt, arrested, demoralized. He, the King of Pop of my time, where the tune of "Thriller" lingers in my mind as my bedtime story. Haha !!<br /><br />Well, i listened to it before i sleep when i was small, when i had an overnight in my brother's room. At that time, cassettes are still being played...Though it's creepy, but i liked it. It just like some one is telling you a ghost story. He's just too great during his golden era, after the climax, his reputation started to erote terribly, his career crumbled as a warning sign.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">Heroes like him, as he created a new genre to the music industry, should just go, disappear or just die, stop destroying himself before people forgets what he's great of and start denoting as a maniac..It just better that way. Great people like Princess Diana, M.L.King, evita peron, they just died, giving their glorious lifetime a perfect ending. It's not like i like seeing them dying, but at least they don't have bad stories coming after their triumph.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:verdana;">i've got this two golden disc of MJ when i was small, cant remember when was it, but it's given by my uncle. It's a collection of the greatest hits from the past. Each time i listen to it, which i still do even today, it just give me that melancholic feeling for him..</span>.......wonders if he ever pick the pieces up and start over again, like britney spears!! oops he did it again~<br /><br />hero(me) cherish heroes =P peace out \/simoyoungyounghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07773258797213322715noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-755527668102368212.post-62988674257634912142008-12-05T18:24:00.001+08:002008-12-05T18:35:23.757+08:00meltsi am so damn sure this makes everyone's heart melt......<br /><br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/uVCXbc0sMDY&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/uVCXbc0sMDY&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>simoyoungyounghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07773258797213322715noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-755527668102368212.post-52791929752746024832008-11-17T19:13:00.004+08:002008-11-17T19:26:59.156+08:00killing me softly - jealousywell...this is a bad side of me, forgive me and i live with it - jealousy.<br /><br />Jealous of nobody, but my sibling's partners..<br />Since young, i had this bad habit. I remember i first heard my brother having a girlfriend (i think i was only standard 1 or 2), that was his first, and i don't really like that first!<br />Then, last year my sis was in a relationship. And i don't like that either.<br />Now, my cousin sister has one, i am very jealous of that guy too !!!<br />So, after watching a drama call "coffee prince", there's a part that gave me a shocking truth why i felt that way...i am jealous of my sibling's partner because i maybe afraid of losing their attention.<br />I hate it but i have to admit it, they do become slightly ignorant when they first engaged in a relationship. However, that "jealousy" OF COURSE will fade away gradually (when i get used to it). You see, i am not trying to hold possess of my siblings forever, but that sudden worry did really gave me some slight shiver (i am oversensitive i think). I love them too much.....but they don't love me. I may sound childish but i think somehow in this world someone feel that same way too, sometimes.<br /><br /><br />here, i say a little prayer to them, to everyone : "may you live your life happily with no worries. Sing those melody along with boB Marley, don't worry, be happy.<br />to A hsU, a toast to your stpm and your battle !! you are fighting bravely and you are a strong fighter with a juejue !! "<br /><br />with love,<br />khy.simoyoungyounghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07773258797213322715noreply@blogger.com0
