1month and 9days, and now im settled down back from the country that i came from. Multi-racial society, a country that is full of life and the different cultures that always seems to intrigue me in many ways, delicious local cuisine and mamak stalls. I've been missing out on many things, and its high time to catch up with everyone and everything that i've known and encountered before.
Variety is the spice of life in certain point of view, without it everything will not be as interesting and you would rather die then suffer the dullness of life. Even at 10pm night the city is still busy with people, if your over in New Zealand at 10pm the city is dead.... the 1st day which i still remember when i first landed on christchruch, we went down to a restaurant in the city called Joyfull, it doesnt sound "Joyfull" when i reach there. It seems so strange to me since i've grown up in a city that never maybe sleeps(hehehe, sometimes it does) at 7pm sharp we reach there and paying the Cab $25.50 for the ride to town i look around and there wasnt really anyone(literally there was "NO ONE") it was like an abandoned city.
Garden city of lights (Kuala lumpur) a place where you can sit in your car for an hour without moving in the traffic. The most complicated Roadsigns and ROADs you will ever encounter in your life, welcome to KL. i've drove down there and got lost a few times... not to mention i was just trying to get to the world 2nd tallest building, where you can spot it 100Km away! Never be indecisive when your driving, if you meant to turn left then turn left.... if your unsure, turning whatever way is the right way. Looking at the Map of Kuala lumpur is not a good idea, the reason are very simple this is because the roads are always changing........ the local authorities and private sectors are always modifying the roads, hence Maps are not 100% reliable.
Congrats to myself for getting a position as Business development executive with a company that most people never heard of. I thought i never get a job.......... paranoid aren't I !! im looking forward to learn and gain new working experiences and Retire by the age of 35.
A man with a dream will not be denied, we will need to start dreaming...... really know what do you want to acheive in life, materially, relationship, and career. We need a goal a Clear vision and a Strategy. Everything is possible, its only a question of strategy and constant motivation.
Oh well.... what the heck. Its time for me to Hit the road.

Osama & Bush
After numerous rounds of "We don't know if Osama is still
alive", Osama himself decided to send George Bush a letter in his own
handwriting to let him know he was still in the game.
Bush opened the letter and it appeared to contain a single line
of coded message:
370HSSV-0773H
Bush was baffled, so he emailed it to Condi Rice. Condi and
her aides had no clue either, so they sent it to the FBI.
No one could solve it at the FBI so it went to the CIA, then to
the NSA. With no clue as to its meaning they eventually asked Britain's
MI-6 for help. Within a minute MI-6 cabled the White House with this reply:
"Tell the President he's holding the message upside down."

Is hell exothermic or endothermic? Options
The following is a question given on a University of Washington chemistry
mid-term. The answer by one student was so unusual that the professor
shared it with colleagues, via the internet, which is of course, why we
now have the pleasure of enjoying it as well.
Bonus question: Is hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic
(absorbs heat)?
Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's law (gas
cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some variant.
One student, however, wrote the following:
First, we need to know how the mass of hell is changing in time. So, we
need to know the rate at which souls are moving into hell and the rate at
which they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a
soul gets to hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving.
As for how many souls are entering hell, let's look at the different
religions that exist in the world today. Most of these religions state
that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to hell.
Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not
belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to
hell.
With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls
in hell to increase exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of change of
the volume in hell because Boyle's law states that in order for the
temperature and pressure in hell to stay the same, the volume of hell has
to expand proportionately as souls are added.
This gives two possibilities:
1. If hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls
enter hell, then the temperature and pressure in hell will increase until
all hell breaks loose.
2. If hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in hell
then the temperature and pressure will drop until hell freezes over.
So which is it?
If we accept the postulate given to me by Theresa during my freshman year
that, "It will be a cold day in hell before I sleep with you", and take
into account the fact that I slept with her last night, then No. 2 must be
true, and thus I am sure that hell is exothermic and has already frozen
over.
The corollary of this theory is that since hell has frozen over, it
follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is therefore,
extinct...leaving only heaven thereby proving the existence of a divine
being which explains why last night, Theresa kept shouting, "Oh my God!
Oh, my God!"
This student received the only "A".

Effect of Thought on Circumstances
As a man thinketh: Chapter 2
A man tend the garden of this mind, weeding out all the wrong, useless, and impure thoughts , and clutivating toward perfection the flowers and fruits of right, useful, and pure thoughts. By persuing this process, a man sooner or later discovers that he is the master-gardener of his soul, the director of his life. he also reveals , within himself , the laws of thought, and understands, with ever increasing accuracy , how the thought -forces and mind elements operate in the shaping of his character, circumstances, and destiny.
Every man is where he is by the law of his being ; the thoughts which he has built into his character have brought him there, and in the arrangement of hi life there is no elemen of chance, but all is the results of a law which cannot err. this is just as true to those who feel "out of harmony"with their surrounding as of those who are contented with them.
That circumstances grow out of thought every man knows who has for any length of time practiced self control and self purification , for he will have noticed that the alteration in his circumstances has been in exact ration with his altered mental condition. So true is this that when a man earnestly applies himself to remedy the defects in his character , and makes a swift and marked progress, he passes rapidly throught a succesion of vicissitudes.
The soul attracts that which it secretly harbors; that which it loves and also that which it fears; it reaches the height of its cherished aspirations; it falls to the level of its uncahstened desires; and circumstances are the means by which the soul receives its own.
Every thought -seed sown or allowed to fall into the mind , and to take root there produces its own, blossoming sooner or later into act and bearing its own fruitage of opportunity and circumstances.
(Good thoughts bear good fruits, bad thoughts bad fruit)
As a the reaper of his own harvest, man learns both by suffering and bliss.
The divinity that shapes our ends" is in ourselves; it is our very self.
Not what he wishes and prays for does a man get, but what he justly earns. His wishes and prayers are only gratified and answered when they harmonies with his thoughts and actions.
Men are anxious to improve their circumstances, but are unwilling to improve themselves; they therfore remain bound. The man whose sole object is to acquire wealth must be prepared to make great personal sacrifices before he can accomplish his object ; and how much more so he who would realize a strong and well poised life?
Here is a man who is wretchedly poor. He is extremely anxious that his surroundings and home comforts should be improved, yet all the time he shirks his work, and considers he is justified in trying to deceive his employer on the ground of the insufficiency of his wages. such a man does not understand the simples rudiments of those principles which are the basis of true prosperity, and is not only totally unfitted to rise out of wrecthedness by dwelling in , and acting out, indolent, deceptive and unmanly thoughts.
The case above are merely an illustrative of the truth that man is the Causer( though nearly always unconsciously) of his circumstances, and that , whilst aiming at a good end, he is continually frustrating its accomplishment by encouraging thoughts and desires which cannot possibly harmonize with that end.
Good thoughts and action can never produce bad results ; bad thoughts and actions can never produce good results. This is but saying that nothing can come from corn but corn, nothing from nettles but nettles. Men understand this law in the natural world, and work with it; but few understand it in the mental and moral world (though its operation there is just as simple and undeviating), and they, therfore do not cooperate with it.
Suffering is always the effect of wrong thought in some direction. It is and indication that the individual is out of harmony with himself, with the law of his being.

Time flies and its 2006!!ALREADY!!and everyday i grow older! the older i grow the more commitments i have. it happens every year..... get used to it. Am i complaining too much? hahaha
Happy New Year everyone! its another new year that only happens once in your life time. 2006 doesnt come again, let 2005 be the past and bury deep in the sands of time. Look forward and not backwards, Good time comes and they go, just like everything/person in the world. Everything is impermenant,but we'll need to learn to let go without attachment nor thinking back and counterfactual think.
