In My Life

There are places
I’ll remember
All my life though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places have their moments
With lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life
I’ve loved them all
But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new
Though I know I’ll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I’ll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more
Though I know
I’ll never lose affection
For people and things that went before I know
I’ll often stop and think about them
In my life
I love you more
In my life
I love you more


Sir J.Lennon & P.McCartney

This two days

Like this one.Picked up Jazz In The City from the records.This time for a change, afterall its good music.Music like these should be good for the soul, especially at times like this, i think. Not that i'm terribly down, but just needed something soothing.So, had trial runs with some different albums i thought i may like.Not much really.The salesperson is giving me some weird stare,and i had a good feeling she's gonna be really agitated if i don't start buying something after trying out four different pieces.And i did.

This two(2) days off is reserve unintentionally for myself.People that i wish to see are pretty much away.And SHE....don't even wana think bout it.Was dissapointed and made a point to stop seeing her that much anymore.Of course, nicely put.No argument whatsoever.After all what is there to talk about.Giving myself too much to hope for and senses are begining to creep thru.Okla....get over it!!!!!

So yup....first day was started early.Didn't know why but woke up early.This body is going cuckoo.Being in the airline did more harm to the body than good.Body clock is on random now,and occasionally just shaken from bed for no apparent reason.And worst still,i've not had enuf sleep yet??!!
As usual went for a bite with momma.Followed me to the bank, got my CDS and trading account done.And head to Jusco.Main priority was to pick up DaVinci's Code from MPH.And FRUIT!!!!!!!!!!Out of stock.Damn...thought by now everyone could have read it but me.But hell....its out.Instantly rang up Ah Mei...and thanks Vishnu.....she has it.Awesome.Better grab it from her before she leaves for Hong Kong at three.
On the way to Ah Mei's dropped by at NASOM.Place some cash there and vow to the staff that i'll be back with some goodies that they need.Like Milo and all that...and she's please.Now less guilty.Had always wanted to give back to the community that shaped me.She gave me a brief detail on what Autisme is all about.That these patients had difficulties and had to be guided.The most fascinating off all-they see what they want to see.And hear what they choose to hear.And it leads to erratic behaviour...I will be back i promise.
And finally got to Mei's place...as usual with her warm smile clearly visible from a distant...but that was not where my attention was at.It was the book she held on to.Dan Brown's master piece,Da Vinci's Code.
Neway.....that night was too tired for Brown's.....ended up reading it at 3am.Call its halt at 5am.




And today....the highlight would be the property fair in Sheraton Subang.Was eyeing on this Malacca condo for investment.The plan sounds ideal...since it will be fully managed by the developer.Need not scramble looking for tenant.Guaranteed return 8% for 5years.Spoke to the guy and discovered some hidden cost for the furnishing.Worked out the maths and need to fork out considerable amount of bucks.Probably towards the end of the year when they launch the second phase.At least its more comfortable then to generate cash flow."Not something to rush into",audibly repeated to myself in the head.A good property,nevertheless....will put this one on KIV status.
On my drive back worked out the figures again.Guess it can be done but it'll put me on shoe-string budget.And altho leverage is good,not this much.Or at least not now.Needed some contingencies...just in case if the quake epicentre is just around Port Klang,i'll still be able to salvage my family financially.
Decided to see my X before heading home.Just checkin she's doing alrite.And she's okay as expected.Whatever life throws at her she seems pretty strong.Yea she does the normal girly thing like weep and yak and complaint bout life.But final result-untoppled.Good to see her coping.

Showered and resorted to THIS....Blogging.Something i don't do often as i do not have the luxury of time.But it can be therapeutic at times.Like Phil suggested..."at least when you die,people knows what you have to say".Make sense.He has he's way of putting senses to things.That could be why we blend so well.Enjoyed conversations with this guy.."substance conversation" we call it. :)



Soe....thats it ler i think.Like i mention bout my body going cuckoo.Have this weird sleepiness during off days.Need to lie down and continue consuming the material written by a good friend of mind,Dan Brown.And proly towards the night to read up on aviation materials since base check is next month.
Thats my life.In short two(2) days.

I PICKED IT UP THERE

Okay this is what i do.Get people airboned and SAFELY hit the touchdown zone.Its either a gentle impact or greasel it down.Do it almost every week,and get paid for it.Besides given a chance to have and intimate relationship with these highly sophisticated machines (unlike women,i treat it professionally), i discovered myriads of practical solutions to our daily life's woes right there in the cockpit.Allow me.........

  • People notice you.One way or the other,people notice the way you carry yourselve.And this has direct implications on how things can easily be done when others see the confidence in you.They are more unlikely to hit on you when they see the confidence oozing from you and therefore, you can carry your duty with minimal distractions.When you are shaken, people notice.And bad news-they tend to add to your pressure by scrutinizing into the very detail of your actions. End result-errors AMPILIFIED.And confidence-DOWNHILL.
SOLUTION
  • -when facing difficulties,deep breath please.Keeping cool will keep external pressures away. When you start fumbling thats when people tend to have a share in your problem.Either you know your stuffs or you don't-its secondary.Or in other words, act cool.Of course they're times when you just need to humble yourself and start looking for help.But they're also times when you need to sort things out on your own and the last thing you need is someone poking on you.Thats when keeping cool is of prime importance. Body actions would probably be the most important area to pay attention to.Afterall,people don't read mind.They judge you by your gestures and actions.Keep unneccesary motions like scratching head,unfocus vision,uncontrolled parameters check (like when you keep looking around to check anyone noticed you've just farted) away.Cause these body language attracts attentions when you least need em. So when in trouble,sit back,have a blank look as though you are wearing an Afghan veil and start thinking.People can hardly notice you're in trouble and hence, your boss or superior don't start coming and screwing your a@@hole and give you grieve.

Routines tht i do. Posted by Hello

A Reminder.

This is to serve as a reminder.That whatever life throws at you,remember that you're alive.That things may get worse.That what troubles you now may not matter in months to come.Or weeks..or days...

But thats the thing with us..never content..never satisfied...we can work our sorry ass out to get one thing,and the very next moment when we finally hit the bull's eye,all is but forgotten.The hardships,perseverance and patients that filled us is so easily erased from memory that we forget how lucky we are.

Think its only wise for us to remind ourselves what matters the most in life.The tangible ones.The ones that you would wish you've thought about when you're lying down there, bedridden and awaiting the glory to shine upon you from across the otherside of the tunnel.

Couldn't agree more that it just requires lots of effort to segregate the things that we think important than with those that truly are.We get up everyday living our lifes getting worried over what others may think of us,over our paychecks,things to pay up,people to live with,corporate ladders to climb,traffic to beat,food to eat,wardrobe to put on,......you know this list will just never take its halt.There is just to much, and if you don't start jamming on the brakes and start thinking with at least some minimal form of intelligence, all of us is heading somewhere as surely as death and taxes-complete breakdown.

So all this leads to the question we all know too well-why do we live?yes i know,make bucks and you build your wealth..then get married...lay eggs and blast your holy seeds..err..i meant make babies..than we die.If this cycle is so certain, then why bother living?Of course in life they are definitely the fundamentals-eg;love,friendship,grace,forgiveness....you know...those values that were once thought to us in Pendidkan Moral.But, do allow me with all humbleness-why bother when you're shithouse sure that you're dying anyway?And well,true that even when we no longer exist, the path that we walk are leaving the trail to people that we love.That they can have the fondness memory of us and pick up the pieces we leave behind and have at least a better life than us.

But having said all that,arent this people dying too?And hell yes,this meaningless cycle continues.



I may not have lived long enough to educate.But well lets call this sharing.Start looking for a purpose for your existence.May not have
much to convince,but living on a non-directional life is not living at all.But then again,we're all dying.Either you start looking for a
purpose or tell yourself you don't need to.Then we can all get drunk.
