When

November 14th, 2007

When you miss somebody for no reason
When you change your favor on picking food
When you need think for a reason for back late
When you reserve your time just hope for a meet
When your mind always tight with a same face
When you set special ring tone for somebody
When you willing spend time on action movie
When you start trying to like sport on TV
When you smile silly of mentioning of a name
When you tender your voices on certain phone
When you frequently check phone SMS and calls
When you care whether you looks good for somebody
When you rethink what is your priority
When you scaring the feeling of lost somebody
When you meet up somebody’s friend frequent that yours own
When you happy that you pleased somebody
When you brave to do somethings which previously you don’t
When you have a dream which you hope complete together with somebody
When you drop tears of listening some words from somebody
When you feel nothings more important than what you having now
When you appreciate shoulder that accompany you walk with
When you wish the time halt of spending with somebody
When you now practice somebody’s habit and interest
When you melt with a familiar and tender voices
When you proud listening your name been mentioned
When you shy to get close to
When you pretend you could stay good alone
When you hide off you emotion afraid upsetting somebody
When your mood go down and up according with
When you like to describe terms of `we` instead of `I`
When you proud to present that somethings which is `my`
When you smile all along by reading what I wrote

When, you are, be with.

Visit to TRH

November 4th, 2007

What a great Sunday, while rare have chances to sleep until noon, but I still wake up at 6am and go for LRT on 7am… What’s for? Today is Sunday… And I am no longer
work day and night, one to seven a week!

Ok, there’s a reason. I am going back to my company… to gather with others
for our visit to Rumah Tunas Harapan, Kuala Selangor. As common, Kuala Selangor
is famous with delicious cheap (?) seafood and firefly (kelip-kelip in B.M.).
We not go for this both reason today. We are going for the kids!

Rumah Tunas Harapan has six houses, combines Malays, Chinese and Indians kids
under families with general facilities. What makes it different to the others
orphanage, is they try to put children under a family, each family have a pair
of volunteer parents to take care of the children. The orphans live with these
volunteer parents and their own kids, as a real family.

We gather 8.00-8.30am at office, bringing up all the gift, hampers, food,
clothes and stuff; getting all ready we start move on the journey. We drive
cars in convoy, one follow by one and there are nine cars, about 25-30 of us
are joining this event. I am in the same cars with Lily (our dearest driver),
Foong Yen, and Linda (lovely TSS manager).

Along the way every way is green with palm trees, coconut trees and bananas
trees; "Kampung" feel house; lesser vehicles;

9.45am we reach the RTH in Kuala Selangor. Start up with a
short speech, and then we divide the children into 4 groups: green, blue, red
and yellow. I am one of the sister (Team leader or mentor a.k.a kakak) of the
blue team.

1st we start with the bookmarks making sessions: we teach the kids how to make
a simple bookmark, and then place some stickers on, stick little white card
with cops, tie up with ribbon and decorate with any materials that we have. The
kids have fun with this session, proudly watching the bookmarks that making and
designed by themselves.

Then we have the "sorakan semangat" session where we need to think of
a slogan/shoutout and team name of each groups. My team named themselves as
"hero", and we having slogan: "Superman, batman, cicakman,
ketepi-tepi; Kumpulan biru, semuanya hero!" Sounds great with hand motion
together. Thank you for Foong Yen’s idea dedication. God knows I never be any
innovative or creative person :-p

Then, we start on the tele-matches "sukaneka" where 1st game is
bringing the ping pong with spoon, 2nd game is water balloons. The 2nd game is
children’s famous… sawing them so happy throwing the water balloons… ya as
expected… some getting wet and the fine balloons which successfully been
delivered is less. But we all have fun!

The schedules is simple… but then in between there is some minor things going
on, so I just shorten all things here. Coming up we have another game sessions
involving all kids: music box (kotak beracun in B.M.) There are little piece of
papers writing several of action or commands in the box. The kids sit in a
round and need to pass the box to the next. If the music stop and the box are
on whose hands, he/she may need to take out a paper from the box and follow the
command written. What’s good is the kid which completes the simple command is
given a special gift.

It’s another guessing contest where open opportunity to the kids to guess how
many candies is there in the bottle. Who have the nearest number can win the
bottle with candies!

Come to the last, we announced who is the winner of the game by groups: 4th
place is yellow, 3rd is red, 2nd is green and my BLUE team won the 1st place!
Yahoo! Each group gets a hamper that we dedicate.

Finally we end up with lunch session. We have KFC Kentucky fried chicken for
kids; Thank you for our lovely manager Linda Chew to buy us lunch for KFC as
well (because we do not want to use the $ collected for kids to buy our lunch).
Everyone is happy and enjoying their meals. While eating, Lily showing photo
slide show at the projectors screening on the walls. Kids are so enjoy and
excited to watching they appear on these entire photo gallery.

End up we take a photo together with the kids combining all our TSS
participants.
Spending about 3 hours+ there, we leaving about 1.30pm. I think this event is so success and everyone of us including the kids is
having a good time spending together. When leaving, all those lovely child come
and say goodbye and "salam" with me. So touchy… I wish I will have
a chance again to come back and visit them :-)

Ok, we do not go for any seafood or fireflies… All the way forward back
Damansara KL and leaving Kuala Selangor. Still 4 same of us in the car. While
arrived Sg Bulor, we decide to get some drinks. We saw there is a stall selling
cendol beside roads. So we stop and have a break there. Beside cendol, we
having rojak (kind of mixing stuff together), fried bananas (pisang goreng),
fish cakes and snack (in Malay called keropok, lekor, losong etc). The cendol
is nice! And it is out of expected cheap, $1 for each… good taste!

Then we continue the journey back… while sending Linda back to her home,
someone suggest to have coconut drink after we have those fried snacks. Yup,
why not? So we go for it. It’s at the Taman Manjarela,
Damansara. Linda highly recommended us a food stall there which sells Java Mee
(mi jawa). Sound good, I would like to have a try, take away as my dinner.

After send back Linda to home and Foong Yen go back with husband waiting at
Linda house. Lily is going back to her Bangsar home and drops me at Bangsar
LRT. Easy I take again LRT to going back my KL home.

Conclude all, today is a great day that I could have so much of events on. I
really enjoy and appreciate all. Anyway be very honest I might not a very
sympathetic person or very pro-active person on any helping events. My concept
is always helping others where I have resources. I am not able to dedicate much
on $, so I dedicate energy and my lazy rest Sunday to spending time with the
kids.

As frankly, these orphans been taking good care, and there is frequent have
peoples or organization come doing donations or visit for them. Anyway,
sympathy on these little children with not with their own parents, even they
have an average good environment to stay for. Sincerely I hope all they is
growing up with joyful and happiness and may all of them is able to be
independent in future and build up to have their real and own family, living
with brightly vision.

随想…

October 29th, 2007

有时候
不知不觉中
生活上遭遇的点滴
会让人的心肠变硬

别人让我们难过了
于是我们伪装冷漠

别人对我们说了谎言
从此我们不相信有承诺

别人做不到的辜负了的带来失望
所以就不再期望不再去在乎

别人的存在牵动我们的情绪
我们就努力说服自己
在乎少一点    感情浅一点
关系疏一点    语气冷一点

每一分难过   每一次拒绝
每一滴眼泪   每一句抱歉
划上深浅不一的痕
尝着血腥里面一丝咸味
静静的等待伤口愈合
一层一层地把心包裹着

渐渐地
我们对着童话冷笑
我们追求速食的爱情
我们轻视诺言
我们说过的话转眼就忘掉
我们只记住那些和利益挂钩的事
我们习惯言不由衷

心肠变硬了
保护自己不被伤害
重重的壳   不开一扇窗
不再掉眼泪       因为不再去爱谁
没有牵挂          因为封锁思念
不会失望          因为没有再许愿
不再感到难过   因为冷漠结了冰

可是
心底尘封处
我们仍然渴望柔软的心
虔诚地爱    不怕伤害
怀有怜悯    珍惜点滴

可不可以试着
把伤心一片一片捡起来
拼凑粘贴成一幅画
纪录流过的泪
跌撞过的伤痕   
某日在彩虹底下
我们都会笑的比任何人更灿烂

树。叶子。风。

January 5th, 2007

在朋友Ally的部落里面看到下面这篇网络文章,很喜欢,于是转过来了。

=================================================================================

树的告白:

会叫树的原因,是因为我擅长画水彩画,最爱画树,久而久之,我的画作右下方索性以一棵树来代表我。
高中三年交过五个女朋友,有一个女孩子,我很爱她,却迟迟不敢追,她没有美丽的面孔,没有姣好的身材,没有撩人的魅力,一个再平凡不过的女孩子。我喜欢她,真的真的很喜欢她,喜欢她的单纯,她的直率,她的可爱,她的智障,她的脆弱。
不追她的原因,也许是潜意识觉得平凡如她配不上我;也许是因为怕在一起后,一切的好感都会消失;也许是怕外人的指指点点伤害了她;也许是觉得,她会是我的,不用急着为了她而放弃一切。
最后这个原因,让她陪了我三年,让她看着我和别的女孩子厮混了三年,让她心痛了三年。
她很想当一个好演员,但我却像一个严苛的导演。我和第二个女朋友在厕所接吻,被她撞见,她尴尬的笑笑说:“Go on然后跑掉,第二天,她眼睛肿得跟核桃一样,我故意不去猜想是谁让她哭成这样,嘲笑了她一天,她在所有人都回家后,在教室哭了起来,她不知道练球回来拿东西的我,看了她一个多小时。我的第四个女朋友,一直很不喜欢她,有次她们两个吵了起来,我知道依她的个性不会去惹事,但我还是护着女朋友,她被我吼了一下后,愣住,眼泪滑了下来,我无视她的眼泪,陪女友走出教室,第二天,她依旧嘻嘻哈哈的和我开玩笑,我知道她很难过,但她不会知道我的心不比她好受。
当我和第五个女朋友分手时,我约她出去玩,玩了一天,我对她说:我有事要对??说。她说:真巧,我也有事要对你说。”“我和她分手了。”“我和他在一起了。我知道是谁,他追她也有一阵子了,是个蛮可爱的男孩子,活泼有趣,充满了热情,追她追得满城风雨。我不能表现自己的心痛,只能笑笑地恭喜她,但当我回到家,心中的痛楚强烈得令我无法承受,像有个千斤重的石头压在我胸口,我无法呼吸,想大叫却叫不出来,眼泪竟然滑了下来,我掩面大哭,多少次,我也看着她为了那个不愿承认的人掩面大哭。
毕业典礼时,我在手机上发现了一封简讯,这是十天前,我掩面大哭时传来的,只是我一直没有去开过机。

叶子的离开,是因为风的追求,还是树的不挽留?

———————————————————————————

叶子的告白:

高中时,喜欢收集叶子,why?因为我觉得,一片叶子要离开它长期依赖的树,好勇敢哩!
高中三年,我和一个男孩子很好,不算男女朋友那种好,是好朋友那种好,但是,在他交第一个女朋友时,我学会了一种不该有的感觉,吃醋,心中的酸,不是一颗柠檬可以比喻,那就像是100颗臭酸的柠檬,酸到不行,他们只在一起两个月,当他们分手,我还得掩饰自己心中强烈的喜悦,但是一个月后,他和另一个女孩子在一起。
我喜欢他,也知道他喜欢我,可是,他为什么总是不追我呢?明明喜欢彼此,为什么不行动?每当他交一个女朋友,我就心痛一次,一次又一次的打击,让我不禁怀疑,是我一厢情愿吗?不爱我,为什么要对我那么好?他对我的好,已经不是普通朋友可以做到。喜欢一个人,好难过,我可以清楚的知道他的喜好,他的习惯,唯独他对我的感觉,我猜不透,难道要我这个女孩子去开口吗?
尽管如此,我还是想在他身边,关心他,陪他,爱他,也许算是一种等待的行为,等待他回来爱我,就像每天晚上等他的电话,等他的简讯,我知道,就算他再忙,也会拨出一些时间给我。这样的等待,陪了我三年,等待是难熬的,是令人想放弃的,但等到的那一刹那,让人第二天会继续等下去。这样的煎熬,这样的痛苦,这样的幸福,这样的矛盾,陪了我三年。
直到三年级下学期,高二一个学弟喜欢上我,每天的热情追求,令我从一开始的拒绝,渐渐愿意挪出我心房的一些位置给他。他像一阵温柔而持久的风,撩拨我这片摇摇欲坠的叶子,到最后,我发现我已经不想只留一点点的位置给这阵风,我知道这阵风,会带我这片伤痕累累的叶子,到更幸福的地方。
于是我离开了树,树只是笑笑,没有挽留。

叶子的离开,是因为风的追求,还是树的不挽留?

———————————————————————————

风的告白:

因为我喜欢的女孩子叫叶子,因为她有一棵令她依恋的树,所以我要当一阵风,一阵呵护她的风。
第一次看见她,是高二我转来一个月后的事,个子小小的她坐在球场旁,一双眼凝视着同和我在球场的学长,每天的社团时间,她总会坐在那里,一个人,和朋友,她的眼光依旧凝视着他,当他和女孩子打打闹闹,她的眼中有泪,当他看向她,她的眼中有笑。看她成了我的习惯,就像她爱看他。
有一天她没来,我心中没来由的焦虑与不安,我无法解释那种感觉,除了不安,还是不安,而且那学长竟然也不在。我冲去他们教室,躲在外面,看着学长骂她,她的眼泪,他的离去。
第二天,她依旧坐在场边,看着他,我走过去,对她笑一笑,拿了张纸条给她,她先是惊讶的看着我,然后笑笑地收下。
隔天,她拿着纸条出现在我面前,然后离开。
叶子的心太沉重,风吹不动。
不是叶子的心太沉重,是叶子根本就不想离开树。
我回给她这段话后,她渐渐会和我说话,收我的礼物,接我的电话。
我知道她喜欢的不是我,但我还是有毅力一定要让她喜欢上我,四个月内我告白了不下20次,每一次她都转移话题,但我还是不会放弃,我决定要的人,我就一定会给它追过来!
一直到不知道第几次的告白,出了口,虽然知道她一定会又说到别的事,但还是有一丝丝希望她的答应,没想到她都不说话,你在干嘛?怎么不说话?我对着话筒说。
我在点头。
啊?我不敢相信自己的耳朵。
我在点头!她大声叫。
我甩掉电话,匆匆披上一件衣服,上了机车,冲去她们家按门铃,当她开门的那一刹那,紧紧抱住她。

叶子的离开,是风的追求还是树的不挽留?

———————————————————————————

石头的告白:

我是一颗石头,静静地躺在温暖的草地上。我冷眼旁观着风、树、与叶子所上演的爱情故事。
风希望叶子能够离开树,叶子却等待树的挽留。树不希望叶子的离开,但是又不挽留叶子。风一直努力不懈地吹向叶子,叶子开始变得摇摇欲坠。迟迟不挽留叶子的树,终于让风给吹走了叶子,还要装出潇洒的笑容。
类似的故事,天天都在不同的地方上演着。无论结局如何,至少有一方是受到伤害的。我还没看破红尘,但是对于人世间的爱恨情仇也看得相当淡了。
风、树、与叶子根本是自找烦恼。
风以为只要不放弃,总有一天会成功地让叶子离开树。但是风错了,如果树挽留叶子,而叶子也不离开,那么风再强大也没有用。
叶子如果真的不想离开,虽然树不开口,叶子也可以明示或暗示树,至少可以得到一个答案啊。
当叶子说要离开时,如果树真的不舍得叶子的话,应该把握最后的机会去挽留她嘛!
风一厢情愿、树和叶子互相等待对方采取主动。
石头没有烦恼,因为石头只是旁观者,看着这些主角们上演的故事。生离死别或圆满结局,我都一笑置之,因为与我无关。

叶子的离开,是因为风的追求与树的不挽留。

=================================================================================

读后感: 叶子,风,树。在漫漫人生当中,某一个时刻,你会扮演这三个角色之一。树,被动,也许他不知道自己要的是什么。更糟的他知道,却没有去把握。所以这种无所谓,没有给他带来幸福,连那个爱着他,或是他也爱着的,也一起受苦。叶子,被动,默默跟随着守候着一棵树。没有誓言的保护。没有得到价值的肯定。也许叶子自己也觉得自己最后会被辜负,她受了太多树给的委屈和难过,失望多得她已经不肯定她可以幸福。所以当风出现,她狠下心随风走了。虽然,我相信叶子还是眷恋着树,多于风,很多很多。风,主动,争取自己的幸福。他也刚好有这样的运气,所以带走了叶子。也许叶子和风不一定可以幸福,可是,至少他们已经在追寻幸福的路途上。

不是一两岁

December 14th, 2006

一个三岁的小男孩拉着一个三岁的小女孩的手说:“我爱你。”
小女孩说:“你能为我的未来负责吗?”小男孩说:“当然能!我们都不是一两岁的人了!”

– Relax and have a smile ;-) 轻松一下…

幸福是什么…

December 13th, 2006

幸福是什么?

幸福是,
吃的饱,穿的暖,睡的安稳。

幸福是,
心里有一个人可以想念。

幸福是,
口袋里没钱可是心却富有。

幸福是,
想起一个人的名字时而微笑。

幸福是,
给喜欢的人买一份小礼物。

幸福是,
给自己烤一个香喷喷的蛋糕。

幸福是,
给家人买一堆吃的,然后看到大家满足地吃完。

幸福是,
每天乘搭轻快铁途中,读十五分钟的小说。

幸福是,
好吃的食物可以分一半出来有人一起分享。

幸福是,
寂寞的时候接到意外来电。

幸福是,
无意中发现漆黑夜幕那轮明月。

幸福是,
抬头看见蔚蓝的天。

幸福是,
看见喜欢的人笑得像个孩子。

幸福是,
听到你一声亲切的问候。

幸福是,
停下来听听自己心底的声音,
敲敲脑袋想想一则一则的回忆,
听见那亲切的声音,
看见那熟悉的身影。

原来,
幸福无所不在。

原来,
幸福,就落在你的心上,就看你会不会去感受。
幸福,就落在你的掌心,就看你会不会握住。

踏实,安稳,加一点点的喜悦,
就是幸福。

再一次感动

December 4th, 2006

才刚看了八岁女孩感人的真实故事,另一边厢,朋友又传来了一个网址:《爱你是个错误》

忘了在那里看过或听谁说过,一个人一天只能接受一次惊吓,只能接受一次情绪异常大的起伏。而我,在一天短短几个小时里面,被感动了两次。

这次说的是一个爱情故事。殉情,也许不是很新的题材,也曾经看过很多很多类似的故事。可是不知道为什么,就在听着那一首感人的歌,看着一句一句感人的对白,听着一句一句掏心的话的时候…无可否认,我爱哭。哭得一脸的湿。

如果爱你是个错误…

我不会殉情,我很怕痛,我也很爱哭,
我不会说感人的话,
我可能不会讨你欢心,
我只能够,好好地活着,
继续寻找下一刻的开心(多是和你一起的时候),
继续坚持爱下去,
直到一天不能爱了,
直到一天不爱了。

如果我爱你是×, 那么我不想我√。
如果因√而失去你,那我宁愿×一辈子。

我来过,我很乖…

December 4th, 2006

今天,在读电子邮件的时候,读到了一封名为“She is a good girl..”的邮件,里面说的,是“八岁女童墓志铭:我来过,我很乖…”的真实故事。文章有点长,慢慢地一段一段读下去,突然一阵心酸,潮湿了脸庞。

八岁的女孩,却经历了这么多。她,是刚好有记者把她的故事写了出来,还有多少孩子,一样这样挨苦我们却一点儿也不知道?

每次看了这样的文章,我就会觉得自己很幸福。虽然不是事事都顺心,却至少比太多人来得平顺了。那些少少的挫折,比起她所经历过的,多么微不足道。那些因为失恋,失业,或碰上一点失败就灰心,堕落,选择逃避或想了结生命的人,读一读这篇文章吧,不惭愧吗?你比一个八岁的小女孩也不如。

活在当下,也求活得自爱,活得精彩。
好好去过你的生活。
学习知足,要常保持有爱心。
好好去看一本书,听一首歌曲;
努力工作,也享受生活;
跟一些对你有意义的人,却一些有意义的地方旅行;
全心爱你自己,全心去爱一个人,也全心感受被爱。
不管这世界如何黑暗,
只要我们都点一盏灯,
就足以照亮希望。

我来了,我会很乖…

November 30th, 2006

今天,2006年最后一个月的第一天。
好快,2006 快要走到了尽头。
回顾这一年,整年被工作填塞得满满的,
却不知道这种生活是否可称为充实。

2006/12/01这一天,
可能有人在准备考试,
可能有人休假去旅行,
可能有人正在回乡的路途中,
可能有人在充沛地享受着精彩的人生,
而我,如同其他平常上班的日子,
在公司我的位子上,对着电脑敲敲打打又一天。

在这里,在哪里,会不会有更好的选择?
