Goodbye Pa

Pa passed on ....
Monday (July 20th) @ 6.32am.

We mourn .....
but we can move on ....
for we understand ....
it's better this way ....
to allow him ...
to leave his body ...
wrecked with pain ....
and go to a place ...
where eternal rest attained ....

A good man ...
With all his faults ....
A quiet man ...
who likes his mahjong ....

The testament of his Life...
Us 6 kids ...
All grown now ...
with kids of our own...

All of us ...
with no regrets ...
Say "Godbye Pa, go now in peace ...
You know for sure ...
We'll take care of Ma"

We see your smile ...
We feel your love ....
You say "I go now in peace...
For look at you kids ...
My work here ..
now is done...
This goodbye is not forever ...
Much unlike ...
Our love for each other ... "

Master Mind Power?

I'm soooo excited to share this with you now, because I've had a chance to try this myself, and it is almost unbelievable how powerful this is: http://www.mindmovies.com/?13770

I apologize if I get right to the point, but this is too important to spend a bunch of time dancing around it. Let me explain...

One thing I've noticed along the way is how difficultit can be to try and get your "inner game" finely tuned so you actually can achieve what you want in life. This applies to business, personal life, finances...EVERYTHING. Sure, you can set goals and all that, but somehow you just seem to lose focus before you get there. It's kind of like too much garbage gets in the way, you know?

All that is about to change!Because now there is a powerful way to literally set your sights on what you want to happen in your life, and then GET IT--simply by watching a movie.

I'm NOT kidding. The best thing is for you to see how this works for yourself. I think you'll catch the vision very quickly when you do. Watch this to find out how to achieve anything you want: http://www.mindmovies.com/?13770

P.S. I Almost forgot to mention, they have some great bonuses ... so check them out, and see how this can help achieve all your goals in life. http://www.mindmovies.com/?13770

A Pasar Malam Experience

I took Damian to makan dinner at the local Pasar Malam (Night Market). He has been to the Pasar Malam , ummm, maybe 4 times in his entire life, so you can imagine that this is indeed a treat for him and he's eager to try some new stuffs.

We decided on Asam Laksa and some sinful fried chicken fillet with cinnamon and fresh chilli powder (yummy!) We have to share a table with this man (in his late 40s, maybe). He was eating his asam laksa quietly, he doesn't look like anyone you'd take notice of.

Immediately after his dinner, the man lighted a cigarette and literally blew smoke into our faces and food! Damian coughed and look meaningfully at me. I said to Damian, "It's all selfishness. The world would be a better place if we're not so selfish."

And to our shock, the smoker started yelling at us "What's wrong with me having a quiet smoke after my dinner? Can't I enjoy life?!!!!"

I stared back at him (coolly, I believe), "Of course you can enjoy life, but we have the right to breathe un pollutted air!"

He continued yelling, "Then drop dead! Your son can also drop dead! Hah! I was not disturbing anyone! I was just having a quiet dinner!"

Damian was obviously shaken. I whispered to him "It's ok. Just finish our dinner. When someone curse you, the curse will fall back on him."

And he continue shouting (yes, people were looking) "So what if the curse falls back on me? Hah! You don't like ciggarette smoke, don't come out of your house-la!"

I fixed my eyes on him and stared daggers at him. (Anyone who's familiar with the killing-look-of-a-mother will know what I'm talking about.) He immediately shut-up. He finished his ciggy and dialled someone on the phone and started yelling into it saying "If you don't pay up I'll just have to force you" (yar, like that kind of talk is going to scare me!)

I continued staring at him ... making him all flustered. Then we left, only after I slowly finish my asam laksa, all the while staring at him!

Damian was troubled by the whole incident. I explained that maybe that man had a real bad day, and is somewhat crazy, and the slightest provocation sets him off. Poor guy!

"What about him telling us to drop dead?" he asked

It's like this. If you throw a stone at a wall, what happens? It'll bounce back and hit the thrower, right? We are like the wall, protected by our strong faith and values, and no curse can touch us. We are children of God and Jesus is our Lord after all. Who can harm us?

Damian is more relieved after that.

At His Bedside

Its hard to explain just how I feel,
This moment seems so unreal.
It was only weeks ago
You were up and on the go.
Seeing you in so much pain and distress,
I pray the Lord would just lead you home,
away from the losing battle inside,
to a place where eternal peace awaits.

Happy Birthday Jeremy

Yes, he has a blast yesterday!!! Transformers 2 at Midvalley, Pizza and drinks at home with family and 2 special aunties who knew just what he wanted - another Transformer toy!

Today, he said to me quite sadly "It's going to be a whole year before I get another birthday."

Then he asked "How many more days till Christmas?"

I went to buy a cake for him. The cashier asked if I wanted to write anything on it. I said "Jeremy, dia 7 tahun ya" (Jeremy, he's 7 years old ya), and she proceeded to write:

Is it July 4th yet?

On June 1st, Jeremy declared that he will be "good from today."

Why from today? I asked

"Because it'll be my birthday in one month's time."

He did try.... but he keeps forgetting and has to be reminded every hour or so.

He has been checking the calendar in the dining room almost everyday. To see if it's July 4th yet.

only 30 more days to go
only 22 more days to go
only 9 days to go
and suddenly today .... oh gosh! .... only 2 more days!!!

And we haven't plan anything for him!! (yes, I feel guilty)

He didn't ask for any party.

I think he's just hoping that when he opens his eyes on his birthday his fairy-godmother would have arrived and left him an enormous present. One that cost RM29xx !!

(we have this tradition in my family where the birthday kid will wake up and see presents on his/her bed. Everyone - mom&dad, bro and sis will give something, small or priceless!)

So today I frantically called on a few of my friends and asked if they will come for a pizza dinner on Saturday. Jeremy's so lucky to have all these sweet aunties who say 'Yes, I'll be there' even tho it's so last minute.

Good to be home

I went to Singapore last Wednesday and came back on Sunday 2am! After 5 days away, I was exhausted. Saw this:

Aren't they the best? Makes all the hard work so worthwhile.
