Make it work!

Grandma had these wordings, amongst others. Just love it!

THE SECRET OF MAKING SOMETHING

WORK IN YOUR LIFE IS:

FIRST OF ALL, THE DEEP DESIRE

TO MAKE IT WORK;

THEN THE FAITH AND BELIEF

THAT IT CAN WORK;

THEN TO HOLD CLEAR DEFINITE VISION

IN YOUR CONSCIOUSNESS

AND SEE IT WORKING OUT STEP BY STEP,

WITHOUT ONE THOUGHT OF

DOUBT OR DISBELIEF.

Today is gonna be superb!!

...and get back to WORK!!

Got to FOCUS!!

since it's still holidays...

maybe hang out with a fren later...

do my "training" with bro...

print out some stuff for grandma...

maybe do a little visiting...

not to mention, i just learnt something new on Word :)

It's only 2 months before the final showdown!!!!!

What am I thinking????

Another Mission at hand...oh yes!!

Bring it on!!

Feeling distressed? Read!

You know how it is when you're trying to find a solution to that nagging feeling inside you that you just can't comprehend?

I'd normally talk to my parents if I were in such a situation, but how do you do that when you can't even put your finger on what it is you're all worked up about?

(This is just super cute..adorable!!)

That is when I faithfully return to my hobby of reading!!

Yup, READING!!

Never Ever Think that you're the only one who is going through whatever it is you're facing.

Basically, that's the idea. There is bound to be someone else who'd gone through it, and had been courageous enough to discuss it...or you'd be surprise at how much research is being done about the way people react to situations.

What I'd do is to start off somewhere..anywhere..and just click onto links that interest me the most. That way, I may have started reading one of my friend's updates on her blog, and then moved on to a site that she had mentioned about, browse through an interesting fact, swim across a heated debate, get a glimpse of a total stranger's life, and woa-la! Get an idea for my next move!

Like today, for example, it happened again!!

So, after glancing through the usual sites, I started blog-hopping! Always intrigued by the stuff I stumble upon...especially when it is by chance!

And my, my, I could not believe my eyes when I came across a blogger whose latest post was about exactly what I was going through. Every inch of it.

There!!

DON'T ever, ever blast out at others when you're feeling miserable.

DO what's necessary in dealing with the issue and move on.

"...deliberately suppressing certain thoughts can make them come back stronger."

Alas, it is that time again where I must return to my duties. Farewell till we meet again!

Young Malaysia

I first came across RandomAlphabets in The Star. If I'm not mistaken, it was about the Read While Waiting Project (note: click on the link to watch the video). I was just so excited by the whole idea, Zain HD's name stuck on. Later, looked up all related videos and I was just so overwhelmed. KL Freeze in Unison was definitely one of my favourites.

Not long after, I attended the MSLS. Up came Zain HD and Kam Raslan (another notable figure I got to know on that day). It was rather amusing to watch them. One thing that they had in common (and so did most people in that room that day) was the spirit of a new Malaysia - A dream, a hope, a belief that things can turn around for the better.

The recent Tali Tenang project also caught my attention, with 250 people participating in the event. Then, I come across UNITED COLOURS of MALAYSIA -The 1+2 Campaign and Malaysian Youth Network (MYN) among others on Facebook. Not to mention the Malaysia4Unity Project which has its goals stretched out until the end of this year.

What can I say? I'M IMPRESSED!!
