Promise/Commitment - Yue Ding By Guang Liang
promising that we dont see each other in 3 years time
using our love to stop the time
you smiling, saying this is our test, our promise
just like that, 3 years have passed
i still go back to this place
closing my eyes awaiting for your arrival
kissing your face in the air
i still remember our promise
the happy promise for the whole life
the song that i've written for you
he also secretly cried
i still remember our promise
i love you more than before
even the wind laughed at me
i think he will tell you that....

Marie Digby - Say It Again
The thing about love
Is i never saw it coming
It kinda crept up and took me by surprise
And now there`s a voice inside my heart that`s got me wondering
Is this true, i want to hear it one more time
Move in a little closer
Take it to a whisper
Just a little louder
Say it again for me
Cuz i love the way it feels when you are telling me that i`m
The only one who blows your mind
Say it again for me
It`s like the whole world stops to listen
When you tell me you`re in love
Say it again
Thing about you is you know just how to get me
You talk about us like there`s no end in sight
The thing about me is that i really want to let you
Open that door and walk into my life
Move in a little closer
Take it to a whisper
Just a little louder
Say it again for me
Cuz i love the way it feels when you are telling me that i`m
The only one who blows your mind
Say it again for me
It`s like the whole world stops to listen
When you tell me you`re in love
And it feels like it`s the first time
That anybody's ever brought the sun without the rain
And never in my whole life
Have I heard words as beautiful as when you say my name
Say it again for me
Cuz i love the way it feels when you are telling me that i`m
The only one who blows your mind
Say it again for me
It`s like the whole world stops to listen
When you tell me you`re in love
Say it again
When you tell me you`re in love�
Say it again

Bored - Lonely?
'Bored'....it seem to be catch phase nowaday. Well one routinely does a thing and continue it for days to come they will become bored.. well other regards 'bored' as literally got nothing to do...Now the question is why there is boredom in the first place?...could it be that we human being are a social creature where we tend to seek out another for company to overcome this boredom...most probably this is the main cause of boredom. Maybe this is the reason why God created 'Eve' for 'Adam' to overcome his boredom(loneliness) and to populate the world with human...Another thing is loneliness a side effect of boredom?....well i personally think that both a inter related...as one will feel bored if they are lonely and vice versa...so lets us make friends and try to overcome this...

Emotions
Nowadays everyone seems to be bugged down by their emotions..well the happy ones will feel like they are on to top of the world...but for every happy one out there will the sad ones which they feel the world is not fair to them..maybe this is what the called the ying-yang. For me personally I hope that this vicious cycle will end and for all the person I care for will be happy and not to be bugged down by this....I sincerely hope they could overcome this...to them now they might question why this has to happen to them but I hope they see this as a test of will & challenge and will raise up to the challenge and overcome this...

Shopping mania
I just don't understand the mayhem of shopping...people crowded eveywhere in shopping complexes trying to outdo each other to get the best deals. Evidences of this can be seen at the cashier where the line would be snaking and waiting forever to pay for the item as for the fitting room well you will be waiting like forever just to try on the clothes which only takes a few minutes...well the might be justification for this some might called it "Retail theraphy" but on the hindsight we consumer are blinded by the the word "SALES" that get us in trouble at the end of the month when the credit card bill comes. As we are caught in the moment or urges to buy we did not notice we did not need the item. So wake up consumer remember when you go shopping always remember to bring a 'to buy list' to minimise the unwanted item we tend to buy.

Money not enough
It seem that nowaday that money finishes in a flash! Then it hit me it is the onset of inflation setting in. Gov don't tell tell us that we are not facing and inflation. I could see that the price for economic rice being raise from RM4.50 to RM7 even today when I bought the cooking gas it use to cost Rm 21 now it is RM22. Can we dismiss the fact that inflation is here? Probably not! Hence Gov stop denying and take a proactive role in tackling inflation! Raising the fuel price is not the way but only add woes to the citizen. How could we say we cannot use Petronas money we are the citizen of Malaysia we are entitled to it. Besides we are not net importer of petroleum like Indonesia but their petrol price is still lower! So what happen?

Heart Attacks And Drinking Warm Water
This is a very good article. Not only about the warm water after your meal, but about Heart Attacks.
The Chinese and Japanese drink hot tea with their meals, not cold water, maybe it is time we adopt their drinking habit while eating.For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you. It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion.
Once this 'sludge' reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal.
Common Symptoms Of Heart Attack
A serious note about heart attacks - You should know that not every heart attack symptom is going to be the left arm hurting . Be aware of intense pain in the jaw line .You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heart attack. Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms. 60% of people who have a heart attack while they are asleep do not wake up. Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let's be careful and be aware. The more we know, the better chance we could survive. A cardiologist says if everyone who reads this message, you can be sure that we'll save at least one life.

BN's Wastages That The Rakyat Has to Pay For
Dear reader I think you have a RIGHT to find out what is happenning our beloved country !!! This Article is written by a fellow malaysian who also loved the country very much.
Whatever amount it is, you can bet it is COLLOSSAL! In the Time Asia magazine issue on March 15 2004, a South East Asian economist at Morgan Stanley in Singapore, Daniel Lian, figures "that the country may have lost as much as U$$100 billion (RM320 billion) since the early 1980s to corruption." Mind you, this is only corruption and does not include wastages and mismanagement which would increase the amount! If the above (which could have been money saved) is added to the nation's coffers; together with Petronas' profits; palm oil profits; and profits from rubber, tin, agriculture produce, aquaculture produce, electronic and hardware exports etc., for the past 5 decades, we can all agree on one thing - our country would be wealthier than Venezuela who has little resources except for oil. The petrol in Venezuela is RM0.16 per litre
The article below is a comment made by a Malaysia-Today reader named ez24get as a response to my article "Despite knowing, BN did nothing except remove oil subsidy" which was published by Malaysia-Today. I believe the summary is concise and easy to understand. Enjoy. Ez24get writes: Looking at the list below, it looks like the BN government is more determined to help themselves rather than the citizens. And this list below is hardly exhaustive as these are the ones uncovered so far – the tip of the ice-berg, if you will! What lies beneath could be much larger :-
1. The Bank Bumiputra twin scandals in the early 1980s saw US$1 billion (RM3.2 billion in 2008 ringgit) wasted;
2. The Maminco attempt to corner the world tin market in the 1980s is believed to have cost some US$500 million (RM1.6 billion);
3. Betting in foreign exchange futures cost Bank Negara Malaysia RM30 billion in the 1990s;
4. Perwaja Steel resulted in losses of US$800 million (RM2.56 billion). (Eric Chia was charged with corruption for allegedly steering US$20 million (RM64 million) to a Hong Kong-based company.);
5. Use of RM10 billion public funds in the Valuecap Sdn. Bhd. operation to shore up the stock market;

10. In Advisors Fees, Mahathir was paid RM180,000; Shahrizat Abdul Jalil (Women and Social Development Affairs) RM404,726; and Abdul Hamid Othman (Religious Affairs) RM549,675 per annum;
11. The government has spent a total of RM3.2 billion in teaching Maths and Science in English over the past five years. Out of the amount, the government paid a whopping RM2.21 billion for the purchase of information and computer technology (ICT) equipment of which the breakdown of costs is unknown;
12. The commission paid for the purchase of jets and submarines to two private companies, Perimeker Sdn Bhd and IMT Defence Sdn Bhd amounted to RM910 million;
13. RM300 million to compensate Gerbang Perdana for the RM1.1 billion "Crooked Scenic Half-Bridge";
14. RM1.3 billion has been wasted building the white elephant Customs, Immigration and Quarantine (CIQ) facilities on cancellation of the Malaysia-Singapore scenic bridge;

20. RM2.4 million on indelible ink;
21. Samy announced in September 2006 that the government paid compensation amounting to RM38.5 billion to 20 highway companies. A RM380 million windfall for 9 toll concessionaires earned solely from the toll hikes in 2008 alone;
22. RM32 million timber export kickbacks involving companies connected to the Sarawak Chief Minister and his family; Bailouts –
23. Two bailouts of Malaysia Airline System at RM7.9 billion. At a time when MAS incurred losses every year, RM1.55 million was used to buy three paintings to decorate its chairman's (Munir) office;

33. Alienation of tens of thousands of hectares of commercial land and forestry concessions to children and relatives of BN leaders and Ministers worth tens of billions of ringgit;
34. Travel around Malaysia and see for yourself how many white elephants like majestic arches, roads paved with fanciful bricks, designer lamp posts, clock towers, Municipal Council buildings that look more like Istanas, extravagant places of worship, refurbishment of residences of VIPs, abandoned or under-utilized government sports complexes and buildings, etc! Combined they could easily amount to hundreds of billions of ringgit!
35. Since 1997, Petronas has handed out a staggering RM30 billion in natural gas subsidies to IPPs who were making huge profits. In addition, there was much wastage and forward trading of Petronas oil in the 1990s based on the low price of oil then. Since the accounts of Petronas are for the eyes of the Prime Minister only, we have absolutely no idea what the amount is. Whatever amount it is, you can bet it is COLLOSSAL! In the Time Asia magazine issue on March 15 2004, a South East Asian economist at Morgan Stanley in Singapore, Daniel Lian, figures "that the country may have lost as much as U$$100 billion (RM320 billion) since the early 1980s to corruption." Mind you, this is only corruption and it does not include wastages and mismanagement which would increase the amount! If the above list (which could have been money saved) is added to the nation's coffers and together with Petronas' profits; palm oil profits; and profits from rubber, tin, agriculture produce, aquaculture produce, electronic and hardware exports etc, for the past 5 decades, we can all agree on one thing – our country would be wealthier than Venezuela who has little resources except for oil. The petrol in Venezuela is RM0.16 per litre!

Streamyx
Today i enter into the world of streamyx after many pestering by my friends (you know who you are). The process of setting up the line was less than 15 mins or so. What a diffence between the dial up and streamyx can do to your life. Now i don't have to wait for it to load and i can get instantly. Although it is not as fast as develop country but it a start i quess. Gov should push for free internet service if they want to be on par with the developed nation like Singapore or the US. Paying about Rm 100 or so for 1mbp is not the way. Gov where are u?

Chaos at Post Office
After the anouncement by Pak Lah of the rebate of RM625(compensation) there is a mad rush to post office to collect the money. I feel it is a waste of time and money having to wait at the post office to collect the rebate. The Gov should have think more throughly before implementing the cash rebate. Queing up in the post office for at least two hour is not the way. The Gov should consider abolishing the road tax or toll for the matter to compensate us. Furthermore what is the use of giving RM 625 for vehicle below 2000cc when it not enough to really compensate us. The Gov should look at Thailand for example eventhough the petrol price is higher than us ( note not oil producing country) there is no toll. I was at the post office today to collect my rebate what chaos it was at the post office. I have been told by the people they have been there before they open and they are still waiting for the rebate. I was lucky to get my rebate earlier as people who took the queue number earlier had decided to leave after waiting for eternity pass me their queue number. Even with that I also have to wait 2 hours for my turn. What an ill thought up system of rebate. Do You agree ? Please leave a comment. Thank you
