Read between the lines

You need no search at the self-help shelves to understand life and your own self, even a simple folktale can be an ultimate eye-opener if you're just willing to read between the lines .

Learn and never ever stop

Don't count the profit by the amount of money you receive or kill to receive a certificate by the end of every undertaking. Learn sincerely, generously, you will never know when you might need what

It's simple

In a materialistic world in which everyone strives and chases after money, I'd like to work for satisfaction.

Old habits die hard

The habits that we pick up at some point of time once fossilized within us won't leave us. Just like a tattoo, we take them everywhere we go, for as long as we live.

Love Thyself

Just like a good book with a well-illustrated cover, the person you are should overpower youself more than your gorgeous hair and hour-glass curves (which is the ultimate stereotype surely), and that is the real deal!

BotOXxxxxx

Since this topic of mine is rejected and i can't do anything about it. i publish my piece here!!!!!

I don’t understand why people look at those who took Botox, as if we are sinners? 

Botox is merely a cosmetic injection that makes people improve their looks. Looks matter most to ladies than anything else on earth !  When you are concerned about how you look age is not a matter of concern at all. Whether in 20s or 60s. its like a quick way to feel younger and  look great! Instead of piling up a basket full of cosmetic creams which gives no change to your skin, Botox is certainly the best choice for those who can afford the better.

Some may  argue that a Botox procedure costs from RM 100- RM 1500 and thus it is  expensive. I don’t deny that, it could be ridiculously priced but good things don’t come cheap either. But I suggest we sit down and calculate the total sum we spend on the wrinkles cream of various brands which are promoted by way of convincing and at times misleading commercials. Don’t be surprised, on a long term  they definitely cost way more. The consolation for those who opt for Botox is that they get results, instant results!!  Whereas those cream freaks end up again in shops looking for the perfect-working-cream. Sad to say most of the creams never work and even if they do it should be a life long affair!

 Botox is not as harmful as people presume it to be. It has a lot more benefits than simply stretching your face muscles and making you look younger with the shiny, fresh look. This is a mistake that people make often. They don’t explore into something and find its pros and cons, instead they just point out  a small negative portion of the issue. If Botox, makes you look younger and then  that’s it! People don’t venture into this cosmetic procedure and to find good and bad effects of it. Botox is capable of curing other symptoms of diseases as well. This is what many of us fail to realise.

I'm pretty sure that most of us are unfamiliar of the condition called cervical dystonia. It is the most common form of focal dystonia. Its symptoms include pain at the neck and shoulders, problems in swallowing, muscles tightness force the neck and head into uncomfortable and often painful positions and movements. Botox treatment can assist in diminishing the occurrence of these symptoms by relaxing the affected muscles.

Next condition is called hyperhidrosis. It is a disorder in which there is excessive sweating . In hyperhidrosis, the amount of perspiration far exceeds what is required for the control of body temperature. Botox treatment has proven to be effective in reducing this excessive sweating.

This cosmetic application of Botox is becoming increasingly popular. Though it does not radically change the appearance of a 6o year to become a 30 year, there is a high rate of satisfaction among those who have undergone this cosmetic miracle. Even with so many protests, Botox still holds its fame as the best way to reduce wrinkles besides giving other health wise benefits.

Lets put it this way if you have a headache and reach out for Panadol. if you insist pain killers do more harm than good ,then I'm soo sorry you have to live the day with the headache. Every drug, every treatment has its cons but most of the time, on a long term basis the bad effects are far too small compared to the best effects.  in today’s world where young girls in China choose to go through a painful surgery pulling their leg muscles just to look a bit more taller than the rest, Botox doesn’t seem a dreadful choice.

Options/ choices. We create them or we have them? When we are in the middle of a chaos, do we stand there and do what others would do or stand up and build a new path for resolution?  

Regrets. Do we regret the choice we shaped when it all goes down or do we cherish on an ordinary solution that put things back in place?

Risk. Does it worth?

Bad choices form regrets. How do we identify good choices and bad ones before implementing them? Its all about risks isn’t it? something like a key to a chest.  You don’t know whats inside, might be davy jones’ nauseating heart or a life-changing treasure! Unlocking is what is in your hands! 

Risk it or run off ? =)

What is L.O.V.E?

what you think about love? is it an essence of living? an addictive drug? or just a wind that touches everyone?

if it is an essence then why people get hurt? an essence is like a soul for a body. how can it be accompanied with hurt that lasts a life time? that is like till the end you gonna love because its gonna hurt, and till you get six foot under you have to live with hurt because you 'must' love?? doesn't make sense.

you say it is a drug?An addictive drug, is not something good unless you wanna wind up in rehab. if love is what brings you joy and all those sparks and sparkles in your life, why an addictive drug is what you compare it to? isn't an addictive drug fatal?

if at all it is a wind that touches everyone, then why are soo many of us drowning in the sea of humanity? isn't the root of humanity love? A wind?? temporary isn't it? is love barely a temporary pleasure that keeps you boosted till the next morning and walks away like a jerk boyfriend ?

so what is love? are we loving without knowing what it is? is it a catastrophe or seasons that change with time?
Is love love?

Innocence: A Taste Or Flavouring?

Wow i think i took a lil too long leave from blogging =0 well, im back!!! i'm done talking about friendship and relationships. this time i wanna hit on innocence. Innocence is bliss people say, for some its their Achilles' heel !

Let’s take a glance at its meaning! Innocence is described as the freedom from sin or moral wrong. Wow that is noble! Maybe this is reason why innocence is often compared to a baby. Sinless, not knowing anything but to cry, eat and sleep! Can anyone identify any grownups with such characteristics?? I bet it’s hard, I mean freaking hard! Innocence is easy to identify, but not purity in innocence. What I mean here is, you can see people acting innocent and not the innocents with no artificial flavouring! The flavour of innocence!
If you were to ask me whether innocence is vital for living, then I would say innocence is the essence of living. Innocence doesn’t stand alone, it is often accompanied by tolerance, forgiving nature and of course dumbness. Well that was harsh, but yea harsh reality. Innocent people, I mean the ‘no artificial flavouring’ are often dumb, freaking dumb and again dumb. But its not a sin to be dumb! Did I ever say its a sin?

Of course its an act of stupidity to be dumb! Stupid means dumb right?? =p innocent people often lead a happy life in their own fairly land believing all humans are noble and were sent to this fairly land with purpose. Oh god, super lame! Referring back to the meaning, freedom from sin and what???? Moral wrongs!!! They can’t say human are sent to go back to heaven and half got a return ticket back to hell! Its a sin to mock people. Oh mock!! Now I remember, they are members of the mocking bird society. How jealous am I.....sheesh

Well why am I jealous?? Of course I'm jealous because I'm an innocent with artificial flavouring. I use innocence to fight the battle of life! I refrained myself from finding out things recently. So I opt to the weapon of innocence. Not to fight with people but to hush them. Yes! When a friend tells me A talked bad about you, all I got to say is “ohhhh”. See I'm saving my energy, my friend’s energy and of course A’s life! Let me explain why A’s life is saved. I said ohhh, so I'm closing the chapter. If I were to reply “ omg who is A to talk about me, A is such yada yada yada... then my ‘friend’ will eventually will carry the story back to A. Why??? Because my ‘friend’ is a true player. A player who plays both side. My friend what! Wakakakaak ..ok back to the story. Finally my scorning will reach A’s ears. Then we pick up a fight, we quarrel, so-called confrontations which never works! At the end blood shedding might occur! See I saved a life with artificial flavourings ! we are food technologists without a degree you see !We are life savers man! So lets boo the mocking bird society!!!

Well all that was purely a mockery, a joke, ridicule or what-so –ever you wanna call it. And the “my friend” character doesn’t resemble any of my friends who are alive or dead!!!!

Life is a compilation of all tastes and flavourings! Innocence can either be a taste or flavouring. It depends on individual. If one takes it as flavouring, people will remember you NOW! Whereas for whom it’s a taste, you will be remembered when you R.I.P. it may sound like a joke but trust me, its a point to ponder upon!! Think about it buddies....

Flavouring Is Not Prohibited

The tHinG Is...


The thing about myself is I don’t know what I want, I don’t know what  I need. That is the main reason why I have to stay under the shade of my father for nearly everything. Well, don’t perceive it as a negative statement because I don’t mean it that way. Its certainly something good to have your parents around to guide and help you make decisions. What I am frustrated about is not that. I’m hating completely the disability I have to decide on things in life. I don’t even know. I have my own views  of course but at times..sorry..most of the time it sounds like “ is that a view?”  thinking overnight on the pros and cons of the possibilities and situation is not what I tend to do. My decisions are quick and hasty,  Which gives me a cross instead of a tick all the while.
I had a choice of going for it or not doing anything about it. the problem about “going for it” is the outcome. I might be a yes or no. When the ratio of yes is 3:10+, which for me seem like 1:10+ I choose the second option I stated previously. Guess how I made my mind?? I was thinking about this 1 thing for weeks, even asked my dad about it. bearing in mind, dads are positive bunch of people,  he suggested and insisted and stuffed on me the 1st option. Ending the conversation with “ up to you”, when its obvious that “ you do it”. I know my dad, he knows what is the best for me as for 18 years + he is serving me with the “best” dish. I owe him a lot for that. Well, hitting back to main stream, hmm outcome. What if its a no? I hate to be rejected. I never had experienced this! Frankly speaking, NEVER!! I hate  the word NO uttered by others.  As for me, the second outcome is so horrifying that it set my mind automatically to hit the cancel button. Yup, cancel this whole so-called opportunity that knocked everyone’s door!  
Ok now about what I get? Frankly, nothing! Its just that I wasted 7 days 6 nights + thinking about something worthless. Even if I grab the whole opportunity what-so-ever and manage to pull through, its nearly the same.  I would rather do it here. Peaceful...
 Off Now

WorTh It....

PATIENCE.. Yup patience is the essence of life. This is what I learnt long ago but failed to implement in a long time. We don’t practise what we preach all the time don’t we? I’m not an exception. I tripped so many times due to this; i mean patience, lack of patience. If i were to say that i don’t have it at all then it is eventually a lie. We all are patient bunch you see. The thing is that it doesn’t come all the time. When it happens it happens..Sometimes we stay patient but in our mind we have killed the person 10 times! Its like we pretend..Which is honestly obviously hard! I’m not here to teach on how to be patient..naaaahhhh... I just wanna explain why being patient is a “yes” thing.

Relationships..no one can ever say NO..Patience is crucial in maintaining and sustaining a relationship..Whether it’s between family, friends or the one special person in your life..we fight for no reasons, we get to curious to know things , we demand too much..These are the random things we fight about, we argue about..When you glance back at it, patience is what stirred it all, crashed it into pieces and broke your trust, hope and love..Acting hastily drives our lives into a chain of disasters. Who drove? We did...so yes, patience plays a vital role...it is like spread for the bread, relationship and patience ;-)

Next, we don’t go in search of things. When something is yours then it will be eventually yours. People don’t wait nowadays. They want everything like 3 in 1s! Quick! Here comes blunder! You deserve something better but just because you want it at instant, you end up with “moderate”.. at times there is U turn available, what if there is NONE ? then do prepare yourself to indulge in tears and regrets. Not because of anything but because you choose to..for the moment you remember your friend “patience”...then you start back from square one.. we are all humans you see..

Living without patience is not hard but its harsh. We lose things for no reason, own mistakes..we spend 24 hours, 7 days to think what transpired, why it happened; when the answer is just as easy as getting angry, PATIENCE! So ya why don’t try being patience? Save yourself some energy and tears..

A handful of patience is worth a bushel of brains!

All The Best pals....
