Just installed a new theme called Day Without Rain from PiZero... check it out... there have some really cool and interesting themes... but only for symbian phones...
It would be wonderful... if everyday is like that...
Much good work is lost for the lack of a little more. ~ Edward H. Harriman
Character is what emerges from all the little things you were too busy to do yesterday, but did anyway. ~ Mignon McLaughlin
The difference between try and triumph is a little umph. ~ Author Unknown
The only place where success comes before work is in the dictionary. ~ Vidal Sassoon and Donald Kendall
People know you for what you've done, not for what you plan to do. ~ Author Unknown
All the above is motivational quotes or sayings that basically mean that you will archive your goals with hard work... but does it really so? does success always comes with hard work? does your goals or dreams comes if you work hard?
This is the real life we're living in... it's a cruel and unfair world... you work your ass off like hell cause you believe that success comes with hard work... that is the theory... the theory is correct but in real life... does it really apply? maybe... working like mad... trying all you best... chasing after due dates... get well prepared... all in hope that you could get the job/grade/etc... but when the result came out... is nothing of your expectation... while others get better than you... and you know that they hardly do any preparation... are you pissed?
You will ask yourself is it that your hard work are not enough... and you should work harder... but you know that you have work your head off... burning midnight oil and lack of sleep... while other are being happy-go-lucky... all they done is socializing... making friends with lecturers... making a good connections... shows a good impression... helping out and so on... basically is like being a teacher's pet... lecturers see them only in class... they only see the surface of theirs... but for you that knows them... maybe not even that well... you could tell the difference... fakers... maybe you could be like them... tsk...
Didn't know why I decided to post this also... sometimes thinking of it makes me sick... maybe I just wanna view out how I feel... you could say anything you like... or say that I'm jealous or whatever... maybe I am... try being in my shoes for once...
Reality... being 'hard' is not enough... you must have the 'soft' too...
Few days back my dad was talking about giving and receiving... he said we must know how to give... then we'll only receive... so I asked him: "what if we are the one that keep on giving... without any receiving" he replied me that: "then someday... you will received a lot in return" isnt the reply I was looking for... well, I didnt know what reply was I looking for either... but hearing that feel kinda relief... relief wasn't the word... well, semantic...
My mind is gonna explode... so many stuff in my mind lately... it's been almost 6 weeks since the new trimester started... I feel as though I learned nothing at all... been kinda busy recently too... thought I could coupe with it... but it's so hard... struggling... feel like giving up... I'm scared...
Sometimes you got to go to the pain... to experience the joy..
I can't sleep, no, not like I used to I can't breathe in and out like I need to It's breaking ice.. now, to make any movement What's your vice? You know that mine's the illusion
And all at once (as i'm trying) I can help you out (just to keep things right) I'll be what you need (I kill myself to make everything perfect for you) I'll do anything Goodbye apathy... So long... Apathy...
So don't sit still, But don't you move... Away... From here...
*So goodbye apathy (as i'm trying), So long fancy free ( just to keep things right) Goodbye apathy, (kill myself to make everything perfect for you) I don't wanna be You...
I don't walk right, not like I used to There's a jump in my step As I rush to see you I could be Happy here As long as you're near to me As long as you're close to me
Now that I'm alright (as i'm trying) I can help you out ( just to keep things right) I'll be what you need (I kill myself to make everything perfect for you) I'll do anything Goodbye apathy, So goodbye... Apathy...
So don't you stop Pushing me I cant take So much
Repeat *
Everybody is watching you, Everybody is watching me too...
My green iPod Shuffle... the sound is great... and it's small which is convenient...
but to add your songs... you need iTunes... you cant drag and drop... cause it wont play... that's kinda troublesome in a way... but since I'm using iTunes... it's fine for me...
Last weekend I went up KL to visit my sister and brother...
we went on Saturday morning and reach around 1pm or so... went for lunch and went back to have a rest... cause we're going to Bon Odori festival... damn near to my sister place...
Bon Odori is a Japanese cultural festival... it was held every year... and thousands of people came by to join in the fun...
Not only Malaysian... there are a lot of Japanese too...
'Bon' in Japanese meant the festival of the ghost... and 'Odori' meant dancing... in Japan, they celebrate it by praying their ancesters... but here, it is just a cultural event...
The event is at Panasonic Stadium... it starts at 5pm where the gate are open... they gave a fan each at the entrance... inside got sell foods and drinks... mostly are Japanese food... duh~
This ojisan was selling burgers and fried chickens... he was yelling: "Dua ringgit! Dua ringgit!" in a funny way... he's a Japanese... so funny...
Before the drum performance and dance begin...
The event started off with drum performance at 7pm... followed by dance performance... basically you just follow the dance around the stage... after that there's a guest performance...
This is the dance... there are a few songs... and each song has a different dance steps...
Thousands of people are there...
The guest performance (lower right of picture)...
It repeat the dance and performance for 2 more times... the event end at 11pm or so... but we left after the first performance...
It wad fun... and the food was delicious... but kinda expensive for some... not much there la... but it was a nice experience...
Here's a short clip of the dance... have a look...
I like most of the songs... the anime and movies are meaningful too...
Anna Tsuchiya - Kuroi Namida (Black Tears) I can’t count the nights when I’ve hoped tomorrow won’t come I’ve lost my dreams and my love; lashed by the rain, I’m crying, crying, crying…
What do I need to do To be able to live as I am, without dressing myself up? I can't even believe in myself, so what should I believe in? The answer is so close that I can’t see it
*I cry black tears I have nothing, I’m so sad Unable even to put it into words My whole body begins to ache I can’t take being alone
At night I grew tired of crying and drew my face, yet it wasn’t my face I need to stop hiding my weakness and putting on a smile
Is it the hardest thing in the world To live without dressing oneself up? If I could have something from you, I want something intangible I no longer need things that can break
**Even if I cry black tears and scream Tomorrow will come with an unfamiliar face And I’ll come up against the same pain If those days are going to continue Then I want to go far away Even though I know it's selfish of me...
Been kinda lazy to update my blog recently... it's not that I dont want to but I just dont have anything to write about... I was also lazy... well, classes goes on like usual... feel like didnt learn anything except for French... other classes is boring with all the theories and all... French in the other hand are more interesting as we learn about the cultures and of course the language...it's the only class that I look forward to each week...
Database has been so so... lecturer ask those who have laptop to bring their's and install a program called DB2... basically its a database program... brought my lappie to class but he didnt do anything also... he just teach about the lecture... what's the point of me bringing my lappie all the way... it's not very convenient for me as I have to stay back till very late... and it's heavy...
Security by the way is boring... with all the history and basic stuff... the lecturer sure can talk non-stop... he really can talk for 2 hours without even taking a deep breath... but I really hope that we would be going to the more interesting topic soon... but he also show us some interesting stuff... which is his hidden camera... he hid his cam in his watch, pen, air freshener, and basically anything... and he record it... so when you go and see him... make sure you dont do anything suspicious...
As for law... her voice is really irritating... makes me headache all the time... and she teaches real slow... she could talk and explain about a small topic or sub topic for minutes... 2 hours class and she just finish 10 slides or so... imagine how slow she is... and it's damn boring...
Ohya, about the test I was taking to get my FYP title... to me, it's basically a waste of my time... I even waited for him outside his office for half an hour... and when I was doing the test, he already given me the title as he asked for my ID do assigned the yiyle to me... after I had finish, he just take a look at it and said:"We'll just keep this as a reference for the future to look at how you have started and how far you have gotten"... of cause he didnt say it like that la... I cant remember how he said it...
Yesterday suppose to meet him for the explanation on my topic... met Louis cause he's under him too... both of us was told to meet him at 12pm... we went there but he was not there... we waited for 15 minutes and Luois called him... and he said he was on medical leave... freak, I dont even know I should be happy or sad... he asked me to find real data which I haven do so... and my morning class was canceled... my next class was at 4pm... you tell me what to feel...
Seems like most people have started with their FYP... I've been slacking around this few days... really dont have the mood to do anything...
