Larian Kitar Semula 2011

Image
Took part in the Larian Kitar Semula yesterday that was organised by Jabatan Pengurusan Sisa Pepejal Negara( The Solid Waste Management Association of Malaysia). Woke up at 5am. My friend Han Qi picked me up and we reached Putrajaya at 6am.  Registered and got ourselves a T-Shirt and two bibs. The front 0378 isn't such a lucky number after all(tell you later)  The back Didn't pay a single cent for this run but got ourselves a very good quality T-shirt.  In order to participate, we had to bring recyclable items such as newspapers or bottles, our so called "participation fees". I must say it is a wonderful event and should be held more often. Promotes sustainability and recycling, very healthy event indeed. Not only allowing us to save Mother Earth but also saving ourselves from having that big fat belly. There were a total of 8 categories if not mistaken. We registered for the 7km Male Adult category. Forgotten to bring a w...

When you try your best and you don't succeed... When you get what you want but not what you need... When you feel so tired but you can't sleep... Stuck in reverse... Last 2 month, decided to test my capabilities and took part in the basketball tryouts in uni. Selected players will be able to represent the uni in the Tri-Campus games organised annually where students from the UK and Ningbo Nottingham University campus meet to compete in various sport events. This year, Nottingham University UK campus will be hosting the games. Turns out that i was not up to standard, hence i didn't make it, and hence unable to go to UK for the event. Disappointed. Took part in the basketball league organised by our uni sports council. Played a match yesterday with one of the top teams with many great players. Definitely lost to them by 4 points(27-31). Can't blame it on the awesome referee(ONLY ONE REFEREE, great?) The blame is on me, i didn't play very well, i didn...

No When. No Want. No Worry.

Learnt about this phrase through an online flash game, whackyourboss.com . The game is designed for people who hate their bosses and it is a place for them to manage their anger. At the end of each "whacking", the person will take out his mp3 player and listen to this phrase keep repeating over and over again with the sound of the sea behind, :"No When. No Want. No Worry." So where did this phrase come from? Searched about it on the net and it came out to be from the Tsunami incident back in 2004. There was this tribe called "The Moken", who lives in the Andaman Sea of SouthEastAsia. They spend most of  their time on the ocean. They all survived the Tsunami because they all knew that the Tsunami was coming. This interviewer asked them how old were they, they didn't know. Most of their time is spent on fishing or swimming at the sea. All they think about is NOW, they do not have a word for WHEN. They also do not have a word for WANT. They eith...

Attachments

Total attachments : 2 doc. Click to download NO not those kind of attachments in emails. I hate it. It makes you keep thinking of something(maybe someone?) you have just feeled, watched, smelled or heard. An example, your over-priced handphone that enables you to do almost everything with it, can you leave it aside for one day? Not replying any calls or messages for one whole day? CAN YOU? Or, not checking people statuses and updates on Twitter(i don't tweet) or FACEBOOK! CAN YOU? In the Buddhist context, attachments causes suffering. We keep thinking about that something and we cannot focus on the things we are currently doing, our mind is not at peace, we are in SAMSARA (suffering). For me, i don't know is it only me or what but after reading a book i always have this feeling of attachment. I don't want the story to end, I feel a sense of sadness and regret. I hate this feeling. After watching movies(especially romance), i don't want it to end, i want it t...

那些年,我一直想追的女孩

Watched the movie "You are the apple of my eye" or 那些年,我們一起追的女孩. Awesome romantic movie of all time. It is funny and romantic at the same time. Bunch of great actors and actresses, especially the actress, Michelle Chen 陳妍希 , suits her role very well, she has a very good and obedient girl look with the dimple by the side of her mouth <3. I can say it's one of the first Taiwanese movie i have ever watched(or not, can't remember, yes i am a sad sad person). Rate it 9/10, 1 point less till perfect 10 because they didn't get together at the end : ( 我很想念上次在pol班坐你隔壁和你聊天... 我很想念你上次用钢笔tickle我的abs... 我记得我生日那天你送了我一个水罐,我却不小心弄不见它,我心感觉非常伤心。 你还在礼物那边写了一条短信,祝我考试顺畅。还写 from your "twin"...我还是没那么明白那一句 。 慢慢长大了,你变得越漂亮,越成熟。可是我还是那么幼稚,到今天还是那么幼稚。 我很想 很想 很想 跟你聊多一点天, 更 靠近你 , 更认识你 。 我真是个傻瓜,一直想着 about the past... sigh I'm still not over you ~ (Gavin Degraw's latest single, click and listen!) Hmm... my mandarin still not bad. Still boleh pakai. La l...
