Embracing differences in life

As the saying goes, "It takes all sorts to make a world." How cliche it may sound, but people have to believe that every human in this world is different,be it height,weight,colour,perspective,opinion and historical background. If we are not ready to accept other peole's opinion in the first place, does it matter? Of course it matters. Restricting our scopes of thinking not only limit our capability of doing things,but also our full potential.
Well,sometimes human tends to side with their experience that they have. They will cling strongly to it and reject other people's opinion for being different. How does it feel like? Should we be sorry that we are different? Of course not. It is an opportuinity for us to learn and revalue our judgement in life which in return makes us a better person. It may sound easy but actually it is not. Take a deep breath and give a real thought of something you might think could not be possible in life. By thinking positive and critically,you might actually find another perspecitve that is so different that will you say," Ah ha". Anything that you find different will be celebrated as you will be more understanding the next time you chip in into conversation. Doesn't is sound wonderful?
Well,it all still depends on our willingness to change. If we are ready,change will come easily. Before finding the "ah ha", we must be ready to find our own defects in our thinking. Nobody say it will be easy,but sure enough,it can be achieved...

I am being labeled super cheap

Recently, I was labeled super cheap by one of my former classmates in taylors college. I good guess would be the reason I did not send my guy friend to the airport. And she in contrast,sent all the girls to the airport. My friends came here to Sydney for easter break. At first I was infuriated.
Did she really know her words really infuriate me? She put her msn," Can guys stop being so super cheap", the night my friends from melbourne went home. Well... I think this little human earthling never hear before the word poor in her life. The reason I did not send drew to the airport is it cost 20 dollars one way to the airport. I am trying really hard to save my money here. In fact, we are going to see each other real soon during winter. So, what is your PROBLEM??????
Besides, my friend did not even really care whether I sent him or not as I sent him until the train station near my place. You know 40 dollars make such a big difference to us? It is my one week grocery allowance. So,stop cirticising other people as you yourself only pay 3 dollars to sent them!
Do you know what it means to be poor? I hate people who say," I am poor" whom in fact are damn loaded. They shop like crazy and in the end, say they are broke. You shop until broke because you know in the end of the days,your parents are going to help out. Some people do not have this option you know. And don't think you are really well deserving here. You think you are real smarty. Guess you are not really at all. If I pick any of my friends from my melaka hometown, they are going to beat you hands down without any sweat. Trust me, I don't lie. And also, I am selected for the JPA because my family falls below the 1500 per month income.
If you want to know the real definition of poor, come and find me. I will tell you how it feels like to be REAL poor in REAL life. Poor people make do with what they have. They save and try to strive in life with however little they have. This is called economic sense. So,keep on with your constant criticism little earthling. I don't give a damn what you say. Although you might not read this, it's okay. That's the reason I wrote this in my blog.

Go tapir!

Haha.....I assume you must be thinking how weird my post title is. Well, I have been reading a Malaysian newspaper article about you know, tapir. It is said that this 27th April will be the World Tapir Day. Yeah! Way to go tapir. In fact, I am actually quite like tapir because it is quiet,harmless and cute. If notice,tapir has the same colour like panda. That's why I love panda too. These two animals contrast colours of black and white are really beautiful. In that article, it is said that tapir is seldom known from its famous friends,being tiger and orang utan. That's my reason I post this cute animal in my blog. Tapir is going extinct and currently,there are only 4 species left,which includes Malayan tapir. Malayan tapir resides in Malaysia. Yeah! Another reason to be proud of being a Malaysian. Seriously, Malaysia is a country full of abundance of natural resources. If those resources were to be tapped efficiently with sustainable development programmes, I believe Malaysia will be a very great country. For instance, people all over the world will be associating tapir with Malaysia as in China with panda. Isn't it great? I believe orang utan is not bad but, isn't orang utan will be lonely. He needs a friend. Well, it is just one of my ideal Malaysia. Whether my idealism will become depends on how much my influence is on this country. Hopefully it does come true. If not, Malaysia will lose another assest that worth so much that it cannot be put a value on. All in all,please support the World Tapir Day guys!!!

What??? Not again!

If you are clueless about my title,chances are you don't know what I am talking. I am actually talking about my latest addiction. This damn addiction has caused me tonnes of my precious time when I am supposed to be doing homework and studying for my upcoming tests. THE ADDICTION is FACEBOOK. My gosh. At first,it was kind of fun to play with all the little games and all. Later on, I am hooked up with it almost everyday. What is so great about it? I don't really care about this facebook thingy. It is the application that aroused one to play with it. Part to be blame is my own sheer ignorance of playing all these games. Time wasted.
I think I will try to control bits by bits like check it once a day. That will be good. I feel the urge again to log in to facebook......again. Ciao.

Welcome to my new blog

Since it is the new beginning for me as the mid-semester has just run out. I decided to revamp my blog. Give it a fresh background and fresh picture. I loves being creative. Though the background picture is not mine,no worries. I will learn to be more creative next time. Currently I am trying to learn how to mix and match the photos by editing them,but not able to find a person who knows how to do it. Thus, just bear with me for some more time. Next time, I hope I will be more original and creative at the same time.
What's with the sudden creativity being emphasised here? I struck my mind when I was watching tele yesterday. I started thinking do I really want a job that is monotonous or do I want something that gives me energy and pushed me on the run all the time. My personality is that I don't love to sit. I like to do something differently all the time. I want to travel,jog,run,study,watch tv and gets addicted something as these activities send my adrenaline rushes through my whole body and I love feeling that.
All in all, learning is the best thing I love to do. Learn to play scrabble is my latest addiction in facebook. Try it. You will love it. Adios,and once again. Welcome to my blog!

The culture of spamming

This contagious act of spamming has been on the rise lately. Little did I know that I will fall into the prey of spamming to. For aggresive internet users and bloggers like many of us here should know what spamming is. Spamming is the letters and words being written on someone's comment box for no purpose or for bad intention. For one, they might try to provoke the blog and gain some fanciful attention of the rest of the people. Let me tell you how I "accidentally" fall into this prey of spamming.
I have this group of friends who are very wonderful people that have gone through thick and thin together during my secondary school lives. Names I presume are better not mention to avoid embarrassment and further degradation. Each of us keeps a blog and we constantly update the blogs about our daily lives and some memorable event,which also includes cooking lesson and movie night out. Well, it goes well all along until someone starts to pretend to be someone else and gave comment.Rather amused I found at first. We begin teasing each other,using nicknames of others like ayamas,rz and even real name.
Later on, it gets cranky as someone(ayamas) over did it by pretending to be so many people at the same time that people know it once is that person. I guess it is sheer of boredom that induced them to do it at that time. One is angry,some is confused,one took revenge and another one just simply kept scolding the culprit. Whoever you are,just chill! Do you hear me? Take it as a joke. Although I am being spammed, I still keep it cool and laugh about it. I might be scolding that person in silence,deep down inside only true friends can go towards such extend to provoke you as they know you will not be angry for a simple prank like this.
I should say at least there are still some people who cares to spam your blogs you see. When nobody spams at all,it is a sad thing(please don't over do it). I think the line is a bit overcross this time around but sure enough. Since the limit has been drawn, I guess I have to just expect a little spamming every now and then. At least I am being cared.
Love,
Chee Seng.

Part time tour guide

Well,well,well. There goes my one-week easter break holidays. Today is Friday which means that in three more days,university life will start again. This time I hope I will be better in everything: listening,writing,hearing and answering. The past half semester can be say quite relaxing except for the law papers,mainly because I am still learning the basics which already covered in SAM Year 12. I hope when things get more challenging, my brain is able to cope it. I guess being just hopeful is not enough,time and effort should be put in to garner excellence. Hehe...
During this one-week holidays,I have some peers "crashing" over from Melbourne. They are my former classmates whom I have kept in touch closely. They visited Sydney for 5days,4 nights. To show our hospitality as Sydney students we brought them around the place ranging from University of Sydney, Chinatown, UNSW, Bondi Beach, Manly Beach and Broadway. This will be my second time being a tour guide,considering the first being one to the UNSW gang. Frankly, I have so bored taking people to the same place all over again from my uni to chinatown. What's so great since I go these places almost every week and my uni everyday. Haha.. I always hope one day I can find a job that pays me well to travel the world. But I guess being a tour guide isn't my creme la creme.
Isn't it just everyone's dream of travelling the world one day? Why is it? Better exposure gives you better perspective in life. Not only that, the experience one gains is truly amazing with the scenery of all sorts. I too hope to travel the world one day but it comes with a cost:money. Haha...Maybe money is the devil of all evils after all for stopping what I dream of in life. But flip the coin the other way. Think about it. If things get so eaay,no one will appreciate it after all. Human is really realistic and more often than not,take things for granted. I supposed it is true. Take me for an example, when I first got to know that I will becoming to Sydney, I was a bit shocked,confused and a little startled. Instead of enjoying and being grateful of once a lifetime chance to overseas,I complained and complained until the day my sister sent a smack on my head. She said at least you got to go overseas!! That's what my friends told me too. Yah...I think so. Things may not go the way we predicted,but the least we can do is being grateful and take all the beautiful things we encounter. In life sometimes, when we look at small,petty matters too much,we have indirectly forsaken the beauty of the big thing. I guess I am starting to see the "big" thing already. Thank you everyone for your great advice especially my sister,chern yik,eng cheng and jong yi. Scold me like crazy and until now only I see what you guys mean. Coming to Sydney is better than not coming to Australia at all. Here are some of the pictures taken during this eventful and memorable trip. Adios.

Culinary skills put to test

Did I ever mention that cooking is never once struck to my mind of something I have to do for the past 19 years? Haha...The reason lies on my possesion of a loving sister and caring mum. Never once I have to cook for the family or any sort. I did help but it is just merely chopping the vegetables. I can't differentiate which veg is which for goodness sake. Thus,when the idea of cooking save u lots of money rings a bell in my mind... hmmm. I should start learning.
My mum is very helpful considering the fact I was so eager to learn. But it was my sis who taught me to cook spagetthi and later on pork porridge by my mum. Since the cooking lesson is a crash course, I didn't really practise first in Malaysia. I just equipped myself with tips and guidance from the calls I constantly made home. For a first timer, I think I did excellently well. Not to bad I guess. Nothing went charred. The taste is in fact nice. Hehe... At least everything taste the same my sister cook. Haha....seriously,no bragging and boasting at all(*wink*wink).
Unfortunately, I am not really good in deep frying though. I always push away this responsibility to my neighbour,pei jin who has tonnes of experience in frying. So, I just sit back and watch. I was thinking,"It was not really that hard,isn't it?" My decision is final. The feeling of trying something new is exhilarating. To avoid any embarrassment,I cooked it alone yesterday. I know my strong point though which is seasoning. I know how to estimate amount of sugar,salt and soya sauce needed in marinating. Not bad right?? Seasoning is very very important you know. even if you fry well,without seasoning,your food is gonna taste so bland. Yah,right! So much of emphasising my strong point only. Wakaka....Well,self praise is better than no praise right? So,here goes.

Happy Easter Holiday

This year I am celebrating good friday in Sydney which is kind of different. I attended the church last year if I were not mistaken. I am not a Christian actually,not to offend anyone but I attend this Good Friday's celebration with the intention to accompany my grandma and auntie there(see, I am being such a good and obedient grandson and nephew). The crowd would start to gather outside the church around 7am in the morning. WOW! So you can imagine how early I woke up at that time. Then, the people will line up and take their turns to light up the candles and kiss the toes of Jesus-like stoned statute. Sorry, I did not know what it is called. Hmmm... Everytime I attended church or temple, I can feel my heart did actually feel calm and relax. No worry and because of that, I love going to these praying places a lot. Though it may seem weird, I do believe religion is a very powerful thing or abstract I should says. Nothing can be used to describe religion no matter how hard you try. You may say it is a belief or principle, but you can't really put it in other words that is explanatory.
To have so much differences in this world is actually very remarkable to me. You have christianity,buddhism,hinduism,protestants,islam,taoism and a whole lots of other. No matter what religion you are, these religions do emphasis on bringing out the best of every individual. You have to be good,trust and most importantly have faith. I am very opionated when it comes to religion. One thing for me to believe is no religion is a bad religion. Second, all religions have good intention. Thus, it doesn't matter who you are, the most important matter is you are a good person. Then,there are some people who are free thinkers. What about them? They are people who have no religion. I was actually kind of SURPRISED( see,I bolded the word,not shocked,but surprised) to know a person who has no religion. For me,it is alright to have no relgion. In fact,some free thinkers behave even better than those who have religion. As a matter of fact, do not be so proud of yourself and look down on others who have different belief. As never once,we are taught to look down and be proud.
Today is my first day of easter break. I hope I can make this holiday a joyous and memorable one. Do some good deeds and be merry. And please please please don't forget to indugle yourself to your chocolate addiction! (one perfect reason to let loose fo yourself)
Love you all,
Chee Seng

Freaky Monday

It is very weird on every Monday. My adrenaline will get pumping. I think a few reasons can be attributed to my sudden hike in energy level. One, I love uni life (haha, i am lying). I actually have just two reasons. First of all, I have four classes to attend on Monday which is kind of hectic. Assuming that I have already anticipate days are going to be busy, I guess my body has accustomed itself to be energy boosting on Monday.. Haha... I have a two-hour economics lecture which I have found so boring in the beginning but now it gets better as I can meet "Mr Bean" every Monday... Hehe... His name is aso very unique,sounded like a famous artist, Pablo. Next there is this pass thingy and follow by a commercial law that always never fail to send me into a state between reality and dream.
Finally,another good reason I should say will be due to a quiz for accounts tutorial. I get very tensed up for this stupid quiz which is just 5% of my final semester grade. I get very scared that I will oversleep and missed the tutorial. What the hell... I am so gan cheong for the minor stuff that even for my previous test which accounted for 15%, I am not as gan cheong as every Monday. I think something must be wrong with me. Stay cool for the big thing but worry for the small stuff. It is so ming boggling this accounts quiz. Hope it goes away eventually. That's all... My typical Monday on a foreign land......

Hope for the best...

All my friends are beginning to leave my old,sweet hometown Melaka. Oh my gosh, I should not say Melaka as old. It is very progressive and currently trying its best to boost tourism. But still, the fact remains that everyone who heard of Melaka is most likely be reminded of historical sites does justify my reason for calling it old. Haha...
Back to my topic, today, my former classmate but current sun you friend is continuing his journey to study medicine. All the best and best of luck. This friend of mine is very funny. It is hilarious to call him fei de all the time although I personally din call him that before. "Since I din say that before, too late to regret now" He will be flying to India now from Malaysia. As far as I can remember, he is a happy go lucky friend. Hehe Haha all the time. With kee chean around, this combination never left the class silent even for one day. I truly missed the old times. Carefree and joyous all the while.
All my other friends are complaining why all people are leaving Melaka. I believe it is for a good cause. With abundance of opportunities awaiting us, why should we not grab it? Take this time to upgrade ourselves with wisdom and courage. Hopefully one day we will finally be matured and knowledgeable individuals. After all,everyone wants to be someone one day,don't we?
Unfortunately, what concerns me the most is will there be anyone left in Malaysia when I go back the next time? I think there should be two more sun yous in KL, a few in Melaka and a few dunno where. Haha... The event that I always looking forward to is chinese new year. will it be as merry next year? will they come back. well, who knows? I guess the adage of absence makes the heart grows fonder is particularly true after all. Well, I don't want to end up teary eyed,it's just that it is memorable reminiscing good, happy times together. It is hard nowadays to find such friends around. Even if you find new ones, the feel is just different. I don't know what am i doing here not sleeping since tomorrow I have a test. Better sleep early. My point is we should hope hard that one day we will meet once again. Maybe in different perspectives but still cling to the title as best friends. Adious.

Someone...

Amused to find that I blog very frequent now which is like once everday. Not that I am free, it is just that I love to express whatever I have in mind on something. I just received a few similar emails entitled "You are everything to somebody". Hence, it strucks my mind do I really have such a significant impact on someone.
Even at times you are busy,free,happy,sad,crazy or just being plain boring, do you have ever really think what you really want to leave behind one day after you left this world. I am not being pessimistic here, I am just being realistic. Have you touched someone that he or she thinks you have saved his or her life? Or have you leave behind a sweet memory to someone that everytime they think of you,they can smile.
I used to think one day, I am going to leave a happy memory to everyone who has crossed their paths with me. Yup, as far as my memory doesn't fail, I think bringing laughters to people's lives is a very good motive to have. I love to laugh and my friends have unanimously given me credit for having the loudest in class! Oh my gosh. Even in cinema, my friends said they can hear my laughter too even when everyone is laughing. But I do think it is a gift so stop being so jealous of me! I guess I should be someone who laughs like nobody else. Come and join me to make this world a better place to live in.
