Perceive beyond the sphere

Ever heard of the saying 'Think outside the box'?
I don't know about you guys, but I get that all the time. Maybe because I'm not thinking outside the box. But wait... What does 'Think outside the box' really means? Does it mean that someone is trying to encourage creative thinking, bizarre ideas and unorthodox methods?

Well then, If someone is always caught saying 'Think outside the box', could it be that someone is encouraging you to think in a different way? At the same time, It doesn't seemed that he/she is giving a good example either. I mean, if that person is trying to encourage creative thinking, why are they still using the same generic popular saying over and over again? That isn't very creative is it?
Don't they ever say something like 'Perceive beyond the sphere' or some saying that will just blow your mind away.

The BEST quotes from mom ver2

My mom is still sending me quotes about the 'the BEST..' every monday before lunchtime.
I thought that I'd share it with u guys.
I hope my mom is gonna show this to all her colleagues too so that they are striving for the best together as a company!!!


The Best leave a legacy
They aren't in it just for themselves, though they will surely reap the rewards of being the best. Rather. they build things that last beyond themselves, things that can be enjoyed by others as well.
----> Mon, 13 Aug 2007 08:52:40 +0800


The Best focus on building relationships
Success does not come alone.
Everyone who achieves much does it with the help of countless others.
How do the Best get others to help them?
They treat them right.
They embrace them and help them.
People become the best because they help other people, and people like them.
----> Mon, 27 Aug 2007 11:34:23 +0800

The Best make no excuses
When they fail, they admit it and move on.
They get back up and do it right the next time.
They let their actions speak louder than their words.
They stand tall and do the right thing the next time.
No excuses, just results.
----> Mon, 17 Sep 2007 10:13:42 +0800

The Best understand that the good is the enemy of the best
Yes, they could say, "this is good."
But that would mean they have settled for less than the best.
Many people think that good is good.
Good is not good.
Good is the enemy because it keeps us from the best.
Choose your side : the good or the best.
The Best choose, you guessed it, the best.
----> Mon, 24 Sep 2007 12:44:34 +0800


Btw, I do not agree to the last one. What is wrong with settling for less than the best?
Let me guess, its so that they are not going to look back at that dreadful event and reminisce on how they could have done better, feeling all regretful and remorseful.
Cool... In order to keep myself sane, I have to be the best all the time? Thats insane! By pushing myself further and better, I will come to a stage when I'm gonna set impossible and unrealistic goal. And did you know that unrealistic goal promotes procrastination and strip a person off from their motivation? Just like how a transsexual stripper stripes off their clothes in front of your bf/gf. It happens in an instant and it haunts you for the rest of your life! [Well, I know some of you horny people do enjoy it...]
Besides, good is good enough. I regard myself as an established procrastinator and I'm not gonna waste my time being the best Procrastinator in the whole world.
What do you guys think?

Mid Autumn Festival 2007

25th of September 2007....
Today is the day when people all around the world gather in small groups patrol around the neighborhood with their lantern. Like a werewolf, they seemed to obtain their power from the lucent moon. With mooncake as their rations and their energy source, most of these small groups would walk around indefinitely terrorizing anyone with their lantern until they run out of mooncakes or until the sun rises whichever comes first. Mostly they would demand an early Ang Pao for Chinese New Year. And if they don't get what they want, they are gonna start an urban fire with their deadly petrol-powered lanterns.

Don't be fooled by appearance, though they may dressed in slippers, really short pants and a hawaii-shirt, these small group of people are in fact technologically advanced! They have simple minded weapons capable of bringing death to a few hundred people. For example, They have the resources to construct a 'Kong Ming Lantern', a paper-like zeppelin [Its like a parachute, with a candle of fire lit below the paper to allow the paper to float above the air]. This simple mechanism can bring down a plane causing terror to the plane passengers as well as the dwellers on land where the plane will be crashing. The most horrifying thing is that this 'Kong Ming Lantern' only takes 5mins to construct by 1 person and it cost less than a dollar. With the whole night to spare and a bunch of small lil kids, who knows how many of these paper zeppelin they are planning to release tonight.

If thats not bad enough, some of these groups have adults who would advice them where to get free candy. These adults pretend as if they are there to take care of the group. He/She would even go as far as making sure that the group stays safe on the road. Don't be fooled by the adult. They are the mastermind behind these acts of terror!

Fear not as judgment day will not be tonight. If you've read Sun-Tzu Art of War, you would be familiar on ow to deal with these kind of situations. It was a wide known fact that in order to crush an army, you have to deal with the person in command. Bring him down, and the whole army crumbles.

If you are way too ambitious or way too paranoid, you can always gather a few million friends, sign a petition and convince Bush to launch a nuclear bomb to the moon disintegrating it. Doing so would strip off their motivation to terrorize and put an end to all these nonsense.

By the way, I wrote this post on a broad daylight. Meaning I had the influence of the sun in my favour. The moonlight is evil I tell you. Its beaming ray has the potential to change a person's personality in an instant turning them into seemingly romantic people. [I came to this conclusion while looking back at my previous post which is sentimental in nature.]

Moral of the story, Stay in bed tonight! Going out is gonna turn you into something worse than a werewolf. A werewolf usually threatens an individual. But a 'Lantern' gang threatens the whole city! If you have watched the show 'Resident Evil 2', you should know how devastating it is to allow small groups of mindless zombies running around the city. Do not let fantasy repeat itself, Learn from the show and do not give in to any evil residents!

[Tag] Genie

I got tagged by Adyla.

The mighty Genie King and the beautiful Genie Princess, from the magical Land of Faraway have finally escaped the clutches of their Evil Master after being held captive for a 1000 years. With the help of their trusty Genie Buddy, they are now flying away on their Magical Flying Carpet on a quest to redeem their souls for all the wicked deeds they were forced to do by the Evil Master!

An omnipotent power recognizes me as a good Samaritan. In return, this omnipotent entity led the genies to the great K1F.

Genie : K1F, my good man.. I will grant you a wish! What did u wish for?

K1F : I wish for POWER

Genie : Why did u ask for that??

K1F: I want everything to be under my control! There will be no uncertainties and no unknown variables! I set the variables! Grant my wish, so that I can control everything, even you puny little genies!

Genie : Are you sure? Let me confirm your wish. You wish for power!

K1F : That is correct! Grant me my wish this instance!

Genie : '"Fool! you could have wished for anything, even wealth beyond your greatest imagination. but you wished for power. it will be your undoing."

and poof,
K1F became the most powerful person on earth! Power corrupts, and soon he became more evil than the their previous masters. Power consumed K1F till the point where he became far more powerful than the demon Yawgmoth.
K1F became the symbol of all evil. As his evil aura spreads across the globe, Love and kindness seems to deteriorate and humans have learn the true value of kindness, love, respect and what it means to be void of these qualities. Ironically, K1F also became the sole inspirer of all goodness and kindness.
Since K1F became the most powerful person, he has the authority to put his name above all others, making him at the top of the list!

Valentine Rose

Princess Eileen asked: "Eh, what's with the rose ar? A symbol of yours?"

Are you referring to this rose Princess Eileen??
I'm gonna blog about this rose even if she is not referring to this one. Ahaha...I've been wanting to blog about this for a long time, but i didn't cause I'm waiting for someone to ask about it! [What to do?? I'm a egoistic person!] :P

Short Version:
"A valentine rose for a girl. Shipped all the way to Russia from Malaysia, to Yuin Yin, 2006"
[If you are thinking: "Awww...that's sweet! I wish someone sends a rose to me!" Then read no further! The long version is gonna ruin your imagination!]


Long Version:
Cutting stickers is my hobby! Usually I cut sticker and give it out to my close friends or relatives. I believe in handmade presents! If I'm giving out a sticker, it means that I am willing make the effort to spend a whole day (or more) designing a unique sticker design and cut it out for them! I regard them as the best gift I can come out with to anyone from the bottom of my heart. And I take pride in my stickers because of the amount of time and effort I spent in every single one of them. One more thing, I do not cut the same sticker design twice! I want to make my creation as unique as possible. 'One of a kind' is the way to go!

This 'Valentine Rose' is my 1st rose sticker! [To date, I have only cut 2 rose stickers!]

Early January 2006, I was sitting alone in my room wanting to talk to a friend. But as I skim through my phonbook, I realised that I couldn't call anyone! But I really want to talk to someone, coz I was feeling kinda lonely back then. Then I began to wonder: "It would be nic if someone would just call me to check how am I doing!" As I thought more about it, I began to dwell deeper. "Wouldn't it be nice if someone can send a postcard to me for no reason...Or it could be something else, anything....just as long as someone gives me the feeling that I'm somebody in their life!"

And of course, I felt more miserable, feeling as if something is missing in me. Suddenly something caught my attention and my perception began to shift. I thought: "If no one is going to call me or send something to me....Why not I send something to them. So that at least they are not going to feel as shitty as I am feeling right now".

I looked at the calender and 14th of Feb caught my eye. Automatically, I am already thinking of a person. [Its like that kind of feeling when you listen to your all time favorite love song and a person comes into mind...Only 1 person!]

The next thing I knew, I was spending the whole of January looking, searching for an image of a rose suitable to be a sticker! And I did found one, the 'Valentine Rose'. At the same time, I had to find out the exact address where YuinYin in residing. So, I had to 'kguai kguai shii shii" contact her housemate, Melissa to get her address. Until today I still can't believe that I actually asked a favour from a total stranger to reveal her address so that I could get to her housemate! Back then, I never had have contact with Melissa before. All I know is that Melissa is Yuin Yin's housemate. So, mailing Melissa back then was kinda awkward.

Early feb, I had the image printed out and I was cutting the sticker already. By the time I was done with it, I was very eager to mail it out to Russia. I had my mom to mail out the sticker the next day! I still remembered the expression on my mom's face when I said that I wanted to mail something out to Russia. She knew that I'm planning to send this 'Valentine Rose' and I guess she didn't want to ask anything much about it. [I guess she must be thinking: "Young kids nowdays!]

Anyway, I had the sticker sent out from malaysia a 4~5days before valentine's day. I thought it's gonna arrive there at the right moment. But I was very wrong. YuinYin commented that she received it 2 weeks after Valentine's Day.... [Sigh...What was I thinking??]

For some reason, I hardly contact her anymore ever since...
You know how some people love to say: "There are alot of other fishes out there..."
I have a lot of such people as my friend. Even until now, I don't know whether to listen to them or not. [For those who always wondered why I still don't have a gf... I don't know what to say...]

There are times when I wonder, 'Maybe true love exist. Only idiots like believe in them.'
Anyway, I was kinda disappointed to hear that she have a bf already....
Oh well, life goes on...

[Oh for those who are curious about the 2 sticker roses, the 1st one was for YuinYin and the 2nd one is a gift for mother's day!] [Will I be cutting the 3rd one? Guess not....]

Rand Virus

I got this from a friendster bulletin.
[this is something pretty cool and neat and unbelievable... At Microsoft the whole Team, including Bill Gates, couldn't answer why this happened! It was discovered by a Brazilian. Try it out yourself. Open Microsoft Word and type '=rand(200, 99)'*And then press ENTER then see the magic.You can also try changing the numbers in the brackets*]

In short, Open MsWord and type:
=rand(200,99)
[then press enter]

It will generate the sentence [The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.] 19800 times on the word document. Creepy eh??

What happened to PostSecret?

What happened to postsecret.com this weekend?

I just got back my laptop, and one by one the blogs that I frequent starts disappearing. This is a bad omen indeed.
Bad omen...

Updated: PostSecret is up and running now!
All bad things come to an end. I wonder if its the same for all good things....

Back to blogging!

Dear Readers,
I got back my laptop. I'm back to blogging!
Acer did pretty good job in replacing my faulty hardware part. Previously I was having problem with my laptop fan. I produces a streaking sound and gets really loud whenever the laptop is getting hot. Actually the fan is still working, and it performed a pretty good job in cooling my laptop.. Its just that I can't take the noise from the fan anymore. That's why I had my laptop serviced to get rid of the noise. Instead of fixing/cleaning/servicing, Acer replaced the fan! Now, I have a brand new fan in my laptop. Even though the new fan is making some noise, but thankfully, it's much better than the previous fan. Plus plus, my fan gained a new ability! It is able to cool water into ice!!! I love Acer!

There was another matter that I was amazed by Acer. On the day when I brought my laptop for service, I told the receptionist that the 'Ctrl' key on my laptop is a bit wonky. Sometimes the 'ctrl' key doesn't work, but 90% of the time, it does work. They said that they'll check that for me. Yup they did check that, and they replaced the whole keyboard! Now, I have a brand new keyboard thanks to Acer. They replaced my whole keyboard! Not just the 1 'ctrl' key, but they replaced the whole thing! I love Acer!

However, there is one thing that ticks me off. It took them 2 weeks to service my laptop! 2 freaking weeks! If my profession is a full time professional blogger, I would have suicide on the 2nd hour without my laptop. I'll probably swallow a whole mp3 player and choke myself to death. Worst thing was they did not contact me when the laptop was ready. I had to call them to ask for the status of my laptop. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt, maybe they dialed the wrong number and contacted Bull Gate instead...
"I should Look at the bright side!" - I got back your laptop, and it looks brand new! What else more would I ask for? [Come to think about it, I regretted that I didn't ask for a free Acer pen! Sigh...]

Despite that, I love my Laptop! And since my laptop is from Acer, I guess I have no choice other to love Acer as well.
With a new keyboard and a new fan! Woohoo!!! [Dang, I should have complained about my DVD Drive as well. Maybe they'll replaced that part for me too!]

Laptop Madness

It's been 4 days since I last touched my laptop. I miss my laptop. [I've sent my laptop for service on 30th Aug. There is a possibility that I won't get to use my laptop for another 2 weeks.]
Ever since it has been gone, I realised that I couldn't do a lot of stuff.
I couldn't read comics anymore.
I couldn't goto YouTube anymore.
I couldn't stalk my favourite blogs anymore.
Worst of all, I couldn't amaze myself by staring at my owning 4-4-4-4 blog anymore.
I've been so dependant on my laptop so much so that I'm dead bored without it. I don't know what else to do other than to sleep. I slowly turning into an Amish!!! Noooo...... Now i'm getting more used to ABCD more than QWER. And 12345 makes more sense than 10101110 now. This can't be happening!!! It feels like as though someone or something is trying to brainwash me into an Amish!!!

I wonder how long can I survive without my laptop. I sure hope that Acer is able to get it fix soon. Maybe I should just call someone. Problem is, I don't know who can I call. [Dang, I just realised that I've been losing contact with my friends one by one]

Dang, I'm bored!
Let's see what I 'fun activities' I can do at the meantime...
1) Sleep
2) Dream
3) I'm out of idea already...
