the nature

sometimes, i have time, i will go to the forest.
to smell the fragrance, feel its greatest, and sleep on the grass patch, glancing at the bright green leaves..

it is like heaven, there's no need to travel far.
it is just nearby.

marathon

i have hoped that one day i will run my 1st marathon.
of course, i have to train myself to run at least 50km.
now my average jog is about 6km.

still a long, long way to go.
still, i have to give my ever best effort to fullfill my wish.
Oh, Yes!

PR

a comment by one bloggers

I am glad to read you applied for citizenship. Sorry that you got rejected.

Regardless, it should be an official policy that citizens should always come first, at the expense of PRs and foreigners. Every country is morally obliged to care for its citizens FIRST. That is what a citizen should expect.

You might not be a citizen, but your sons are entitled to, since they are doing NS.

Most of us resent PRs because of the following reasons;

1) Many of them are just cheap labour. We locals can't fight cheap, because our families live in expensive housing, and not in Third-World Housing

2) Many PRs, once they become managers, have a tendency to fire Singaporeans and replace them with their own countrymen. If you were one of us, wouldn't you be angry with the foreigners too?

3) Many PRs are arrogant. They actually dare demand for the same rights and privileges as citizens.

4) Many PRs and foreigners think they are some big-shot just because they pay taxes. So what? They pay enough tax to cover all our salaries and the public services? If not, they should shut up. We pax taxes too.

5) Many PRs import into our countries the same bad values that keep their own countries poor and downtrodden; corruption, nepotism, dishonesty, laziness.

Not all Singaporeans are good. There are corrupt Singaporeans too. But enough of us are hardworking and not corrupt. That is enough to get our country going, and enough to make you come to our land, instead of us going to live in your land.

5) Many of us think that PRs and foreigners are only fighting with locals for limited jobs, jobs that can and should be performed by a citizen.
Many of us feel that Singaporeans won't get a job if the manager if Filipino or Indian or PRC, because the Filipino/Indian/PRC manager would rather give the job to his own countryman.

That makes us hate the PR very much!!

no pain no gain

bloodshed means nothing.
face them, not hide.
straight on.

still alive

i am still much alive.
much alive than what you have think.
it is good that i am still alive.
oh, Yes!

have no fear

fear is your greatest enemy.
show no mercy

band of brothers

in the end, when i was played out by someone, it was a humiliation which i will never ever forget in my entire life.
that is why i trust myself, and never believe in others.
they are afterall, our band of brothers.

shield

protect yourself.
guard your heart well.

supernova

liberation of the greatest energy.

rebirth

rebirth of a new man.
me, a changed person.

let it all go

Let go of the Past,
Only then you move towards the future.
Let go of the Regrets,
Only then you move towards the happiness.
Let go of the Presumptions,
Only then you move towards the truth.
Let go of the Problems,
Only then you move towards the solutions.
Let go of Yourself,
Only then you move towards the divinity.

do not break

Life is a mixture of good times and bad times,
happy moments and unhappy moments.

The next time you are experiencing
one of those bad times or unhappy moments,
Try your best not to let the situation get the best of you.

If the going gets tough and you are at your breaking point; show resilence.

Bend; But don’t break!

Philippines Elections 2010

Elections are more entertainment than enlightenment in the Philippines.
Every night, candidates travel from town to town in whistle-stop motorcades packed with comedians, pop singers, movie stars and basketball heroes.
They sing and chant political slogans, dance and hand out partisan, colour-coded T-shirts, baseball caps and wristbands to crowds of equally enthusiastic potential voters.

Party labels, ideology and issues have virtually nothing to do with the campaigns. Politicians instead rely on the strength of their personalities and two traditional

Philippine formulas for success-- "family and favours" and "guns, gold and girls."

In many ways, the Philippines' elections can be compared to the country's popular soap operas. Behind the conflicting web of personal relationships, business interests and shared histories lies a wavering uncertain mass of shifting alliances, angry accusations and desperate political showmanship.

And, just as on television, a fear of violence and bloodshed lingers in the background. So far, more than 90 people have been killed in the run-up to the May 10 polls.

old friend

met an old friend whom i have not met for a long, long time.
he still remembered me, and called my name.
ah..
after those years, he still does not forget me and i also have not forgotten him, too.
we had a long talk.
time passes quickly when you met a good talker like my friend.
it is good.

well, we parted unwillingly and promised to meet whenever possible.

take care my friend, take good care.

timeless

where time there is no borderless, boundless, unlimited.
our persistant chase of happiness always ended in agonies.
so, be contented of what i have.

time is endless

for space, time is endless.
for us, our time is limited and is a fraction of a second in space.
i don't give a damn to those who betrayed me.

frankly speaking my dear i don't give a damn

frankly speaking my dear i don't give a damn.

calm

calm.
all is calm.
when the sparrow flies over the lake, its images is reflected on the surface.
once it flies away, the calm returns to its original state of calmness.
empty once again

salute

it is a dirty war.
like iraq, it is the war best avoid.

i have been one that i trusts people too much.
well, that is life, isn't it.
however, i still continued on my narrow path.

when i was in the darkest valley and still able to smile, it is not easy, but i have done it.
so, let smile at our trusted friends and colleagues, once again.

the moment of truth

the person whom you have trusted the most played you out.
the person whom you knew for two to three years turned out just an ordinary person.
well, when things happen, and it always do, i take it and let it go pass us.
i move on as i have already let it go.
