A Fairy's Dreams

The Picture That Shamed Italy

2012-02-12T18:32:00.001+08:00

I'm sure you have heard of the news about the 2 drowned girls who were left unattended in a beach in Rome. Well, it sparked controversy because a) beach-goers just went about their business not caring there were 2 dead girls in the beach they were frolicking, b) the utter indifference to someone's death made us wonder about the morality of mankind in general and c) what the fuck happened to us that we became so heartless?

While the news highlighted mainly the issue of people slowly losing their compassion I have only a few unanswered question.

a) Where were the lifeguards? b) If there were, and when the girls' corpses were recovered, why the fuck no one took them to a secluded area where they can be away from the public's view? c) Why were the beach-goers criticized when they were probably confused as to what they could do for the poor dead children? What were they expected to do anyway, sing a bereavement hymn? d) Why wasn't there a paramedic available at the beach with their ambulance for emergencies like this? Isn't that one of the required mandatory safety rules for any beaches? I live in Malaysia(notorious for poor customer service and manners) yet I have seen a paramedic tent with a van nearby for situations like this.

It's sad that the girls were left unattended like that for 3 HOURS but as the popular Psychology finding goes "in a crowd, people respond more poorly to emergency situations".

Actors are not Heroes

2012-02-12T01:04:00.000+08:00

Indian films have a habit of referring to their actors as 'hero' and 'heroine'. It irks me to no end when none of these men and women have done anything noteworthy(correct me if I'm wrong) other than to have acted in movies.

From what I know hero/heroines are persons who, in the opinion of others, has heroic qualities or has performed a heroic act and is regarded as a model ideal.

Actors are entertainers. They perform to a crowd of audience. Hence, calling them heroes is an insult of actual heroes who are out there - think of soldiers who are fighting for our country, people who are dedicated to serving the poor and less fortunate and most importantly - our parents are also heroes and heroins.

I should think we must start referring to Indian actors who are the main characters of their story(when are they not the main characters of their movies?) as LEADING ACTORS/MAN or for females - LEADING ACTRESSES/LADY. I strongly and firmly believe this is the correct term that we should all start using.

~~I understand, that'll be like asking for pigs to fly.~~

Book Review: Daddy Long-Legs by Jean Webster

2012-02-10T00:44:00.001+08:00

Jerusha Abbot prefers being called Judy. Who wouldn't be, her name was chosen from an abandoned gravestone in the orphanage she lives. An inmate in the John Grier Orphanage. She hates the orphanage. Being the oldest, she is often the recipient of Mrs.Lippet's outbursts. Mrs Lippet is a well-meaning but stern woman.
A naturally humorous and spirited young lass, she wrote an essay entitled Blue Wednesday that highlighted her mundane and lackluster life in the orphanage. Her 'blue' life turned pretty colorful when an eccentric aristocrat read her essay and decided to support her education till college.

A page from the book.

Judy can't imagine her luck. She gets to leave the orphanage and have an education that'll get her far in life for someone of her station.

Her benefactor, Daddy Long-Legs is nicknamed thus because of the brief moment she caught sight of him before he left the place. She vividly remembered how he was so tall that his legs towered.

Judy is to write letters to Daddy reporting her progress in studies. In her academic life, she encounters people from various background and how she is part of their lives - adding mischief here and there.

This is absolutely my favourite book of all time. I have read it twice and enjoyed them immensely each time. I am thinking of reading it again. This is one book that never fails to bring delight to my heart. I feel nothing but happiness as I turn the pages in the book. This is by far THE most adorable book ever written, hands down.

Hik hik hik...a little memo I wrote upon purchasing this book. Don't look at me like that - I was REALLY happy when I finally got this in my hands. Im sure you have that one book that relates to you and seem so natural to put yourself in it because there's this special connection - unexplainable but it exists. I feel so at home reading this book.

Types of Relatives ~ A Very Thaipusam Story

2012-02-08T19:58:00.001+08:00

It's THAT time of the year again. Not even Deepavali, Thaipusam. Well, scratch that, every other family gathering you can ever think of.

Relatives are an interesting lot. You get to see the difference between the last time you saw them 6 months ago and now. Half a year ago, your aunt Ruth sported an afro, now she's bald. That ugly cousin everyone pokes fun of? Turns out she made quite an impressive makeover and is now the most beautiful of all the girls in your family. Kinda make you regret when you laughed along during all those times she was teased, dontcha? The junkie cousin? He's now a top student in his university. Darn.

No, these are not my relatives, I assure you.

Hearing fun, funny, interesting and defintely baffling stories from my friends with large families I have noticed a consistent pattern in the types of relatives in each of our families. This may not apply to all but take it with a spinch of salt, yeah?

a) The Cheek-Pinchers

The culprits usually being old aunties, grandma's and older cousins who sees you every other family occasion and goes OMG WOT IS THIS IM SEEING SHEELA'S DAUGHTERRR HAVE GROWN SOOOOOO BEEEEGGG!!!". Please bear with them. They mean well it's just that their enthusiasm rubs off on you excessively.

b) The Bragger.

This happens when you have aunties who have children around the same age as you. They would take this opportunity to brag about every little accomplishment their little Laddoo have made so far and not so subtly, they would ask "so, wot have you beeeen do-eeng?". Oh, nothing - I was recruited as a member for my department gazette, scored above C's last semesters, had a lecturer kept a copy of my Human Personality assignment because she seems to taken a liking to it, started a blog that has 1000 its per day, officially read over 500 books, completed my diploma with distinction, pursuing a well-sought degree in a prestigious university and had a popular article published in The Star newspaper when I was 16 years old, Oh, do you know that aspiring singer who's famous in YouTube now? She's my friend of 10 years. So...your son scored 10A's for SPM? Good for him.

Don't push your luck, lady. I can be malicious if I so choose to be.

c) The Scrooge

When family members visit, it's the hosts' and the rich guy's job to treat everyone at least once with a meal. The scrooge is rich but when it comes to taking out the wallet from his pockets, crocodiles seem to be in them since he's so reluctant to reach for it. But beware! The Scrooge never gives anyone anything, but is the first one to take the dishes on the table.

d) The favourite aunt/uncle

They're the life of the party. Everyone likes their company, everyone listens to what they have to say. You look forward to their company. They're always equipped with stories that lull you to sleep at nghttime. These are also the same relatives that becomes your accomplice in pulling pranks on other members.

e) The Black Sheep

Everyone avoids them. They don't hate them, mind you just that they or you dont want to be seen with such people. They could be a family member who's into drugs or something deviant in the eyes of society. Poor souls but life is like that.

Ah~~~ it was liberating to finally write up this article. I had this in my mind for a long time now. Friendly reminder, this was written sincerely from the heart with no apparent malicious intention to anyone who felt sour after reading this.

Ciao! <3

Thinking About Suicide? Hold on, Read This.

2012-02-02T20:36:00.000+08:00

Think about this before you consider suicide... you are special.

"So you want to kill yourself? Because no one cares about you. Your family hates you. Right? No. Your parents walking in your room in the morning to only find a dead body. They’ll try their hardest to not think negative, and to just think that you’re fooling around. Then they’ll start shaking you. Why aren’t you breathing? They’ll be broken. Tears. Many tears. More tears than you ever shed. Was it ...them? Were they the reason you did this? More tears. Pain. Every day. Every night. Every single second of every day. Guilt. More guilt. What about your best friends? They’re not going to care. Right? No. What’s the first thing that will go through their mind when your principal comes in and tells the class that you’re not alive. While your best friend sits there in tears. That girl that you’d smile at but never talk to? She’s now crying. The boy who used to kick you under the table just to annoy you? He’ll be shocked. He’ll be devastated. He’ll blame himself. What about your teacher? Thoughts crossing her mind. She’ll question if you did it because she didn’t make school comfortable enough for you. Pain. Devastation. All in one. Who organizes your funeral? Who has to go through your stuff? Clothes? Notes? Those few older girls who used to give you daggers at school? They’ll feel regret. They’ll blame themselves. See, if you killed yourself today, you’ll never know what might of happened tomorrow. You’ll never know because you’re dead. Plain dead. Not breathing. Not alive. Just dead. Your family hates themselves for it. Your best friend then falls into depression. Tears. Tears. More tears than a river. All because you killed yourself because you thought no one would care. Right? You are loved. By many. Someone right now is thinking of you. And right now, I’m thinking about anyone who has thought or is considering suicide. You are beautiful. No matter if you’re black, white, homosexual, tall, short, overweight or anorexic. You are beautiful. You want to kill yourself? Think about it first. There’s no coming back. And I promise, if you do it, you are not only hurting yourself, you are hurting many. You are creating more tears than you led yourself to. You are making everyone miserable and making them all feel guilt and pain. Never will they feel whole like they used to when they had you. You are beautiful. And you are never ever alone"

Stay strong ♥

Dreams Part 49

2012-02-02T02:27:00.000+08:00

This was one of those dreams where I felt completely released. Spiritually.

In a small island, there lived a community of native where they live a simple life of farming, hunting, trading etc. Their main source of wealth was a tree that produces a powerful sap that can cure anything. Foreigners got hold of this knowledge and seized the island, conquering the natives and taking over the ownership of the sap.

The foreigners have mass produced this tree sap as medicine and making good money out of it. They enslaved the natives as the workers to extract the sap from the trees.

One such native girl, tired of the tyranny of the foreigners, led a revolution to revolt against these bastards.

After much careful planning with recruiting and making an escape plan, we suceeded.

I remember a group of myself and some boys infiltrated their HQ and threatening the big boss to kill him and his family if they don't leave. Also, I killed a fat guy with an afro. I don't even know what it means.

We eventually won and we all held hands in a long line and jumped from a tunnel, ran towards a vast field of green and trees and butterflies and colorfulbirds happily sucking the sweet nectar that is the tree sap.

I remember the joy of freedom after much confinement and I thought to myself - is this how it feels to be truly liberated?

I loved that free feeling. Will I ever feel it again? I wanna be in that field running again holding hands with a bunch of people

Redemption and Rebirth

2012-01-31T18:01:00.006+08:00

I'd like to start of with a story.

Once, there was an incompetent girl. She thought she was boss and things would go her away. One incident proved her otherwise and she learned her lesson the hard way,

It started with her volunteering for a group task that needed only one person to complete. She failed miserably in that task, all because she got hungry and forgot all about her little mission after getting her stupid fat stomach full.

You see, if she was the only one affected, she could have rectified things somehow or rather. But since this was a group work everyone in it was affected.

The shit she went through was the perfect retribution for her carelessness. They say "don't swallow much more than you can chew". That's exactly what I did - having never had leadership experience, I took on the job like nobody's business only to disappoint everyone involved.

The just punishment I received was that I ended up working with a group that didn't quite want me there and on some occasion, "showed their fangs". It was a long semester so I had no choice but to endure it.

That was last semester and God knows how suicide-invoking that was.

This semester however, I had been given a second chance.

We had finished an assignment pretty late due to a festival holiday, so it was all last minute. But the door that opened for the salvation of my redemption was this - who could make it tomorrow early enough to pass it when the lecturer asks for it first thing in the morning?

This was it. My second chance. I grabbed.

This morning, I woke up early, commuted to my Uni and managed to hand it over as soon as the lecturer asked for it.

Mission: Hand assignment to lecturer.
Status: SUCCESS.

I felt nothing but relieve. A warm sense of relaxation came over me and I knew my guilt was over.

IT WAS OVER.

Thank heavens and everything that's divine for that.

On a different note:

I was in a bad mood today despite my little victory so I left my whimsical self to take reign over me. The result was 3 Subway cookies and a haircut everybody in my house hates. Even Tiffany let out a little scoff, the cheeky four-legged devil.

There is a reason for this haircut too. I had planned to start everything anew this New Year. That was my New Year's resolution. I had discarded MANY of my old ways/stuff to make way for the future.

As Dumbledore said "It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live".

Hence, this haircut.

Yes, it's VERY short. Hold your panties, girl. It'll grow like every other goddamned hair. 'Sides, about time I get rid of those split ends.

This also marks the end of my whimsical spending.

Anime Review ~ Durarara!!

2012-01-28T18:17:00.001+08:00

It was a fine morning in Ikebukuro. A young small town lad descends the train in Ikebukuro station to meet his childhood friend. Seeking excitement and new adventures here in Ikebukuro as a change of scenery in his mundane small-town life. This young lad is up for a surprise when he get involved with Ikebukuro's many underground subculture - of the secret society known as The Dollars, the notorious gangster group calling themselves Yellow Scarves, a bartender with superhuman strength, a headless rider, a slasher who makes an appearance every now and then leaving marks on her victims but never killing them and a certain informant who plays with the lives of others. Here, he discovers what's he made of, what's really important to him and some real life lessons that changed him for the better.

~*Ryugamine Mikado*~

Very popular in his school and among otakus as having a name "that sounds like a protagonist's name in a manga". Mikado is a shy and reserved boy, often clueless about things around him. Don't let his poker face fool you, he is the cause of a major revolution in Ikebukuro. He is the young lad who arrived in Ikebukuro as a change of scenery and to meet with his childhood friend. 17 years old.

~*Kida Masaomi*~

A happy-go-lucky, easy-going and cheerful boy. His hobbies include trying to get girls to drink with him. He likes his classmate Sonohara Anri and cares deeply for his childhood friend, Ryugamine Mikado. He is the ringleader for the notorious gangster gang Yellow Scarves. 17 years old.

~*Sonohara Anri*~

Mikado's and Kida's classmate. Very popular in school for being very pretty and...having impressive chest. Her parents died when she was very young and actually witnessing them die hence rendering her apathetic. She is secretly loved by both her classmates but choosing Mikado in the end. She is revealed to be Saika, the slasher.

~*Izaya Orihara*~

A 23 year old Informant who likes to toy with the lives of others solely because he's bored. He claims to love humanity yet behind many troublesome events he is the mastermind. He has a fierce rivalry with Heiwajima Shizuo, whom I personally thinks he really admires than his claims of Shizuo being an annoying existence. He is also a member of The Dollars which is how he gets to scrape information about the outside world and Ikebukuro.

~*Shizuo Heiwajima*~

A bartender with super strength. He hates violence, really, just that everytime he's pissed off he breaks a building. Shizu-chan is actually a very private person who minds his own business but it's people who pisses him off. He has a reputation of being quite good looking "looks like a movie star" as he's often described as - so he's quite popular among women. He is a member of the Dollars.

~*Celty Sturlusson*~

A Dullahan from Ireland who got her head stolen by a visiting Japanese scientist. Hence, she truly is the urban legend in Ikebukuro that a headless rider rides a motorcycle that makes neighing sounds like a horse. She is now in Japan with a black-market doctor whom she lives with and working various jobs assigned to her at the same time finding clues about her stolen head. Celty is at least a 1000 years old and was once partner with Shizuo but broke up because of his violent temper. She fell in love with the black market doctor she's living with and a wedding seems to be in place. She's also a member of the Dollars.

Durarara!! is one such anime that has fantastic storyline that somehow brilliantly shows how each of the main characters lives are entwined, whether or not they realize it. It has amazing new-age soundtrack, natural dialogues that are rare for an anime and relatable characters. Each episodes highlights an event in the very happening Ikebukuro and how each characters contribute into making it happen.

Plot: 9/10
Characters: 10/10
Soundtrack: 10/10

Thaipusam Revealed

2012-01-27T19:17:00.001+08:00

With the increasing attention to India through the medium of superhit movies like Enthiran, 3 Idiots, Slumdog Millionaire and many more movies that garnered international attention, it came to my attention that foreigners becoming more and more curious about my Motherland.

In conjunction with the upcoming Indian festival Thaipusam(which takes place in Feb 7th 2012), I would like to take this opportunity to briefly touch about a piece of my rich culture.

What is Thaipusam?

The Myth: Lord Siva and Goddess Parvathi was given a mango by Naratha. They couldn't decide to whom they could give it to so they told both their sons that whoever takes it around the world fastest may have the mango. Lord Murugan was excited to show his love for his parents, immediately dashed off to go around the world. Ganesha, on the other hand, thought for a brief while and much to Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvathi's surprise, held the mango in his hands and walked around them, meaning his parents are his world and they have his utmost love above all. Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvathi were extremely satisfied with the answer and praised Ganesha. Murugan heard of this and became angry. In a fit of rage, he left his home. Ganesha was stricken to have lost his brother this way, held a parade filled with offerings and many festivities to cajole his little brother home.

*there are many versions of how Thaipusam came about but this is my favourite version. If you want clarificaion as to which one is the true story, don't be shy to ask a Hindu Guru*

*Some corrections have been made after a nice commenter pointed out my mistake in the story of Thaipusam*

Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvathi

Lord Ganesha

Lord Murugan - The One Who Got Away LOL ABISHTU!

Hence, a tradition was born where people carry offerings of milk, santhanam and honey and many more as a medium to bring Murugan back home.

Offerings of milk, honey and santhanam are known as Pal Kodam. Devotees wear yellow/orange traditional Indian outfits as it is considered a sacred color. Devotees who decided to take Pal Kodam must be vegetarian from 3 days to one week.

a) Milk

Milk is offered as a symbol to receive longevity.

b) Santhanam (Sandalwood paste)

Santhanam is offered as a symbol to receive luck in money.

c) Honey

Honey is offered as a symbol to receive blessings in education. So students out there who are sitting for major exams this year, take note.

The Kavadi:

It's a dance-like parade involving devotees impaling themselves with spikes attached to lemons and lime. Devotees go into a translike state and dance throughout the parade accompanied by booming musical instruments. Devotees who decide take kavadi must go on a strict vegetarian diet for one whole week.

It's not uncommon to see foreigners taking part in the Kavadi. =)

If you're planning a vacation to another country do stop by/consider Malaysia as your destination because you won't even see this in India Thaipusam is pretty much a Malaysian thing. This happens only once a year so do take this opportunity to take part in this very colorful and happening event.

Dossvedanya! =)

Movie Review: Nanban(2012)

2012-01-26T02:19:00.000+08:00

Nanban(literally meaning Friend) is the Tamil remake of Bollywood's 3 Idiots. The storyline, characters and theme is exactly the same as the Bollywood version but the unique touch of South Indian cinema deserved it's own attention.

Pari is a gifted student who loves engineering. Venkat wants to be a wildlife photographer yet due to his family obligations he studied engineering together with his buddies Pari and Senthil - comes from a poor family described as having come "straight from a melancholic Tamil epic" - decrepit father, long suffering mother, unmarried sister close to spinsterhood but he's extremely hardworking fellow. Senthil and Venkat were normal grade-hounding students until Pari comes along and teaches them the joy of learning and living life to it's fullest.

Actor Vijay

Here is Panchavan "Pari" Pariventhen aka Kosaksi Pasupugazh. A spirited young man who is the glue to everyone and everybody. Trust Pari to brighten up your day with his comical antiques and zest.

Actor Srikanth

Venkat Ramakrishnan. A rather clueless student who is very impressionable - seen with how he regards Pari very highly: even idolizes him. *bromance* cough *bromance*. After 3 years of wasting his life studying engineering, he finally gathered up the courage to open up to his father about his unwillingness to continue a career in engineering and he would be a lot happier doing what he loves. Guess who got a professional camera later that day? He is supposed to represent the child that is forced to study a course of his parent's choice because that's what had been decided for him since he was born.

My own story is that my both my parents wanted me to be a pediatrician(I don't even like kids!). Years later, Yours Truly was seen taking an honors Diploma in Counselling and currently pursuing a Degree in Psychology.

Actor Jeeva

Sevalkodi Senthil. Due to the pressure of wanting to provide a better future for his family, he jumped off the principal's building when asked to choose between him and Pari. In the meantime of him in a coma, he had time to reflect about his life, decisions and things that he had been doing wrong. Senthil is always seen praying and studying like a typical Asian kid as he is representation of a student trying his best to achieve his dreams but pressure of it all made it worse.

Actor Satyaraj

Virumandi Santhanam aka Virus. He got his name purely because of his existence. His stickler attitude and severe disciplinarian approach had cost him the life of a student and almost that of Senthil. Virus is the dean of the fictitious prestigious engineering school in India. He represents the typical Indian parent - child must either be a doctor or engineer or else he/she is worth nothing, utmost filialty is expected of the child and he(the parent) must have the final word for everything.

Actress Illeana D'Cruz

Ria Santhanam. She is Virus' daughter and I think she's pursuing gynaecology/obstetrician course. Pari broke her engagement to an irritating dandy, helped her send Senthil's father to the hospital and finally, falling for Pari.

Actor Satyan

Srivatsan (Silencer). Notorious for his gaseous emissions, he was named Silencer because...well, imagine you're studying....and all of a sudden there's an unearthly stench wafting around the room. His method of studying is the classic memorize word-to-word and passing all of them. Silencer has a fiercer rivalry with Pari for he strives to be better than Pari yet Pari always surpasses him for reasons known. =)

~*~

As someone who doesn't know a word of Hindi I found that the Tamil version was A LOT easier to comprehend. The jokes were funnier too in Tamil, the acting was more natural and down-to-earth and the atmosphere was more relatable to South Indian families like myself. Out of 10, this Tamil remake earns a full 11.

Nevertheless, the original Hindi version cast deserves their own mention.

7 Hottest Guys (In My Opinion)

2012-01-20T19:55:00.002+08:00

My perverted self never cease to scout for hot smexeh men. I just like to look at beautiful people regardless whether they're men or women.

...Im such a creeper. That aside, I was browsing thorugh blogs and noticed that at least once they would feature hot guys according to their opinion. I thought to myself "Why don't I do one?".

Have fun drooling.

1. Vlad Sokolovsky

Im sorry, but I have a fetish for foreign men - especially the blonde blue-eyed heartbreaking devils like this.

2. Ganesh Venkatraman

South Indian model with bewitching penetrating eyes. =)

3. Vikram

The most talented/versatile/amazing actor in Tamil cinema.

4. Shahid Kapoor

Those...lips...*dies of heart palpitations*

5. Bharath

Who doesn't like baby-faced boys?

6. Imran Abbas

It's Imran Abbas dammit. Do I need to explain?

7. Davey Wavey

This man has an amazing personality. He's gay though. ='\

10 Fortunate Things Life Have Given You

2012-01-19T00:51:00.000+08:00

On page 38 of this really insightful workbook, I answered the following question:

List ten things you feel fortunate that life has given you.

1. A Mum

If it wasn't for my mom who gave me food, shelter and a good education, I might probably be a street kid going in and out of rehabs or even worse, be an orphan.

2. Maturity and Insight beyond my people's age

Not to brag but when I was a teenager, I knew rights and wrongs. I led a very guarded life. I observed my peers making mistakes to a point that they will never be the same again. I don't want to be like that. I took their mistakes as a warning from Divine Power telling me not to be one of these kids.

I don't have much dirt you can dig from my past. I kept everything secret.

3. Talent in writing

Not to a great extent but I am one of the few population in Malaysia where I believe is the better percentage of people who have what it takes to write. Hence, the birth of this blog. As a teenager, I was depressed and suicidal - almost ended it at many points - writing gave me a passage to express my innermost thoughts when no one else was willing to hear me out. Or perhaps it was I who needed to swallow my pride.

4. A fierce tenacity and independence

I just realized that I am the sort of person who NEVER gives up. I try to solve problems to the most possible extent that I can, exhausting myself in the way but what was important was I had put in effort so all was not lost. I had the ability to form back-up plans every time. I had also found independence in my actions - I rarely rely on others for my problems. Sure, I bitch about it to my friends J and K, but in the end I don't mope around for long. I wipe my tear-stricken tears, stand up, show the finger to whomever's messing it up for me and march on. As they say if life gives you lemon, make lemonade. I hated to lose. I wanted to win at all cost.

5. Good Looks

Hold your horses. I am not supermodel gorgeous per se, but compared to many people. I am actually not that bad looking. A little on the chubby side but I have no deformities that cripple my daily life. I have good eyes that see, a rather pretty mouth(as my relatives and a few friends declared), a unique face that is often mistaken for a foreigner, arms and legs that enables mobility, a tall height for a girl. My female instincts often coil at my reflection in the mirror but other than that - I'm not that bad after all.

ps: just you wait till my period kicks in. Everything I have just said becomes automatically contradicting.

6. Intelligence

Allow me the liberty to brag here. I have always been above average. English, Biology and Physics were my strongest subjects. My grades are also above average. I should think I am incredibly lucky not to be born with any learning disorders. I have it well than most of my peers who struggle in education. So what's there to complain. I love the fact that studying comes naturally to me. It is a gift many students would die to have!.

7. Good sense of direction

Excusez-moi. I am a female who remembers roads very well, believe it or not. Most females I know can get lost in their favourite malls I need only go to a place once and I can remember crook and nannies and their landmarks. Thanks to this masculine talent, I am a well sought-after companion for exploration car rides.

8. Lucky

I am. When I am in dire trouble, I just put my faith in Almighty, praying silently that He give me strength to endure whatever trouble I am going through at that moment. Do not underestimate Divine Power. As Tiana's father said in The Princess and The Frog "Yes, you wish and you dream with all your little heart. But you remember, Tiana, that old star can only take you part of the way. You got to help him with some hard work of your own. And then... Yeah, you can do anything you set you mind to."

9. Spiritual

Countless trial and tribulations have made me realize the inevitable presence of God Almighty in my life. Just when I completely give up, some miracle happens. I absolutely love the fact that I am able to admit freely that I believe in God without getting red in the cheeks.

10. Imagination

Thank God for making me an out-of-the-box thinker! With me stretching my imagination to the farthest I can, no wonder I spend most of my time daydreaming! <3 =P

Writing this post has been especially enlightening. =)

10 People Who Would Help You in Times of Need

2012-01-19T00:08:00.000+08:00

Enduring a painfully boring Career Guidance lecture, I stopped briefly from my semi-sleep mode to be interrupted by possibly the most entertaining part of the lecture.

It was a simple question.

List 10 people who would help you when you need them.

As you can see from the blurry picture above there are about 6 names out of 10 which in my personal opinion came to me as a pleasant surprise because I never knew there was this much people I trusted despite being somewhat of an antisocial. (antisocial...too strong a word don't ya think? More like extreme shyness. There, that sounds cuter).

The last point may seem like a joke but I was dead serious. If all else fails, I'll use my feminine charms(one of my senior's catch-phrase) and get easy money. Note: only when truly desperate!

I rest my case.

Dreams Part 48

2012-01-17T15:27:00.002+08:00

A world where girls and boys are determined by their animal transformation.

The rabbit for a girl is said to be ideal transformation and for a boy, the dog/another canine. So far there are only one rabbit girl and one wolf boy(totally hot) and these two are presumed to hook up and they did. The rabbit girl got a bouncy, trouncy fun-fun-fun-fun-fun personality and the wolf boy was dark and sombre. A complete contrast to his lover. His human form had green-black spiky hair and he bunked with his 3 other roommates.

Can you just imagine it? These two? Oh yeah. CUTE! <3

I am someone without a transformation. So I was feeling pretty down about it but I had fun among my friends.

Before that, let me tell you about this little kingdom. Looks like an ice kingdom where boys and girls live separately. They meet in the daytime and at nighttime they go to their separate places for rest etc. We seem to be a labourer community where each person have their own tasks. The boys are mostly miners and heavy-duty workers(construction), the girls being farmers and hunters.

There is a hierachy between the girl's community - The Separates and The Togethers.

My clan is enemies with the Separates so I guess I am one of the Togethers. One of the girls(a bird transformation) was kidnapped by the Separates. Myself and a few others went in disguise in the Separates territory to save Arietta(the girl with the bird transformation). The Separates have a habit of wearing reds in their attire so it was easy to blend in.

We got found out and suffice to say things weren't peachy. Arietta put a spell on her that made her blend in with the curtain. The Separates had a hard time unlocking each and every curtain, fluffing them out so they could puff her out. It was comical to say the least.

We had a pretty tough fight with the Separates and eventually won. We went home with our rescued friend and turns out as soon as I got home, bright white light engulfed me and voila! My animal transformation is complete! I was also a rabbit besides the other girl! I was an immediate sensation.

The cuteness. It killz meh. *hnng!!!* *flops dead*

I was small and fluffy and white, with short ears. I met with the Grand Mother - the ruler of the girls - and sat on her lap, well actually she carried me into her lap and I fell fast asleep.

When I fell asleep, my dream focal point switched to the Grand Mother and surprisingly, beside her, the wolf boy and his bunkmates were sleeping.

Looking at the sound-sleeping wolfboy, I heard her saying "perhaps it is time for you to meet your intended".

The dream swirled into the wolf-boy's sleeping face and it was then that I woke up.

PS: I say, what was that all about? @_@;;

Venomous Jealousy and Contagious Envy

2012-01-13T21:02:00.001+08:00

Jealousy and envy are nothing more than misplaced admiration. It is the degree to which they're executed that matters. By talking about envy and jealousy, I am also going to link this to the relevance of bullying.

I, a noob uncertified psychologist have come up with my own categorization of bullying.

1. Harmless

a) No involvement between perpetrator and victim
b) Perpetrator just watches from afar, thoughts preoccupied about victim.

2. Borderline

a) Significant involvement.
b) Perpetrator influences victim, actions have impact on victim.

3. Severe

a) Extreme involvement
b) Perpetrator actively engages in activities that effects victim severely on both physiologically and psychologically. This may be murder, torture, rape etc.

My own experience as a bully victim have thought me much. It allowed me to have introspection and see from a neutral vantage point that sees from the perspectives of both the victim(you and I) and the perpetrator. Let me bring to light what I have realized, which should have happened long ago.

The thing about bullies is they're extremely insecure of themselves. Their targets/victims are usually of people whom they regard as "above" them and possess characteristics that perpetrators want for themselves.

It is this frustration on unobtaining the desired characteristics for themselves that prompts them to resort to underhanded methods we all know as bullying.

I am in the opinion that if you are bullied, you should be flattered. Yes, as incredulous as it sounds: I am absolutely certain of my claim. You possess a quality that your bully longs to have. There is something good in you that your bully wants but is unable to achieve.

BE PROUD OF IT.

Having said that, this is no way a shout out to endure your pain. No. I would like to take the opportunity to empower those who are being bullied to stand up, speak up. SHOUT! if you must so your bully know you mean business. Tackle the harrassment as long as you can endure. When you feel that you have reched your limit of enduring it, I strongly suggest that you involve an adult to settle things in a more effective way. An adult would act as a mediator who listens to both sides of the stories and come to a decision on how to effectively solve the drift between you and your bully. Ask your bully of the motive he/she is doing this.
Hear them out. For all we know, the root of this evil is nothing more than a misunderstanding. If the bully is doing it because of spite and unwarranted sadism, no one would blame you for being upset with them.

If the case is serious ie your bully have gone physical on you than rest assured you are in good hands of people who would support you, ensuring your bully get his appropriate punishment.

Please don't be afraid to speak up. You do not have to endure such things for happiness is what you deserve.
If you're teenager, even if you're a 19 years old, it helps to tell someone of your misfortune. An adult confidant can be anyone - a trusted teacher, best friend, lover, family, relatives, school counsellor, anyone you feel closest with.

If you are a shy person like me, email jo@samaritans.org. These are good online counsellors - free service - who provide professional help. You have the privilege of being anonymous and have a neutral third party give helpful suggestions as per your case. Talk with them first, see what they have got to say about handling your bully case and from there pick up on.

Remember, a dog would only keep barking until you tell him to shut up.

10 Reasons To Marry an Indian Man

2012-01-13T00:40:00.000+08:00

Before you shoot me with accusations of racism against me, I just want to gently remind you that I am also an Indian and I take this as nothing more than a light and friendly jest against my own race. All in good fun people, all in good fun. Also, I stole this from someone's FB status so yeah it ain't mine.

10. They come in a family pack. You get a mother, a father, a few sisters-in-law, half dozen cousins, and countless relatives for free.

9. They would never leave you. They get fat and lazy too fast and no woman will ever be interested in them.

8. You will never get tired of hubby improvement projects. They come with countless imperfections and guaranteed to be really slow learners.

7. Despite their crude exterior and rude attitude, they are docile at heart. They are well trained by their mother to follow orders from woman of the house. You are in control.

6. They would be grateful all their lives; all other 37 girls they interviewed turned them down.

5. They will be available all the time. They do not have any friends or social life or passion to keep them busy.

4. You never have to worry about their past girlfriends: most likely they never had one, or in the rare case they had a girlfriend, she is too busy erasing the memory.

3. You will earn the sympathy of everyone, even your worst enemy.

2. They will stop harassing you once you marry them.

And number one reason for marrying an Indian man
1. For the rest of your life whenever you say “I could have done better,” you will be right.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Yindian man all the way!

Determination

2012-01-11T02:53:00.000+08:00

Fine, I'll admit. This post is more like a new year's resolution. The difference is, these aren't to-do lists for the upcoming year. They're reminders of what had happened last semester - mistakes, close-calls, bad luck etc.
I write them down mostly based on my turbulent previous semester - things that I was observant and aware of, things that almost ruined my life but went ahead with it anyway. I'm not being a drama queen here, I'm serious. There were circumstances were I know it's a bad decision but went with it anyway. Knowing an error and acting upon is no longer a decision - it's a choice, and one must reap what one sow. I had learned it the hard way. For three weeks of semester break I had absolutely no peace of mind, endless sleepless nights and back pain from stress.

So there have you, some lists(reminders, ahems) that serve as alert pointers to ensure I do not ever do something like that again. After receiving my results today, I knew somewhere in my heart that I have been given a second chance to proof myself and mark my word, I am not going to disappoint anyone ever again - I am going to proof my worth. Especially my conscious. Weeks of mental unrest took it's tool on me.

Tips To Get Rid of Fleas and Ticks From Your Pets.

2012-01-10T19:33:00.000+08:00

As pet owners, we are thoroughly responsible for our little darlings. It matters not whether they're dogs, cats, bunnies, mice or reptiles - it's all the same especially matters regarding their health.

Pinfeathers. I condemn you to hell! Harumph.

As responsible pet owners, we worry a lot about their health. The main culprit to our unrest being parasitic entities like fleas and ticks that are out to suck the life out of our little babies.

The nerve!

Here, I'd like to take an opportunity to disclose some useful tips that I recently found for getting rid of those culprits for good. Trust me on this one, it works like magic.

Queen of the House. We just pay the bills.

My Tiffany had always been a fit bundle of floof but being a toy breed, it renders her vulnerable to many illnesses.
No matter what we do, those infernal creatures from hell somehow finds a way.
The routine twice a week bath and medicinal supplements seem to do little to get rid of them so my mom resorted to a last ditch effort - traditional way!

*heroic music ensues*

What is to be done?

1) Boil chikin pieces in a pot. Up to you to use which pieces - legs, thigh etc.
2) When there is some bubbles, pour one tablespoon of TURMERIC POWDER.
3) Boil the chikin until well-cooked.

Now what you should do is, test whether your pet is willing to eat those chikin. Cut the chikin pieces into small portions and see if they eat it. If they do, congrats! Now, what to do with the soup? Simply serve it for them to drink. If they drink it, congrats!

Turmeric is a well-known medicine in my culture. It has powerful antibodies that can kill germs from within the body. Hence, when digested it enters the bloodstream. When ticks drink the now clean blood, they become toxic to it but for our pets, it's extremely beneficial. Next time, you can serve both the chikin and soup together as a meal.

Since removing the thicks from external didn't work, why shouldn't we try from the inside now? My momsey is truly a genius to have thought of this! Lubb yoo momsey.

If you have your own tips on gettng rid of ticks, please share in the comment section below.

Tips Mengeluarkan Kutu Dari Badan Haiwan Kesayangan (Versi Melayu)

2012-01-10T18:16:00.001+08:00

Ha...sebagai tuan kita bertanggungjawab atas kesihatan haiwan peliharaan kita. Tak kira anjing, kucing, arnab, tikus, biawak dan sebagainya.

Aku sumpah menatang nih masuk neraka kang baru tau.

Dilemma paling besar tuan yang mempunyai haiwan berbulu adalah infestasi kutu atau fleas/ticks. Dah cuci macam mana pun, taruh ubat macam mana pun, ade je haiwan parasit nak kepo minum darah baby kita.

Ish! Tak kuasa!

Ha...di sini Willow nak kongsi petua menanggalkan parasit dari badan pets kita for good. Nescaya it berkesan!

Perkenalkan, Tiffany - ratu rumah saya. Kita bayar bil ajer.

Anjing saya Tiffany nih memang sihat malafiat tapi disebabkan dia anjing kecil maka senang parasit nak singgah.
Satu hari, mak saya dah muak tiap minggu cari kutu kat badan Tiffany nih. Tiffany mandi 2 kali seminggu, ubat supplement pun rajin diberi. Ade-ade sekor.

So mak saya decide je lah nak guna cara tradisional. Apa yang boleh dibuat?

1) Masakkan ayam dalam periuk sampai berbuih.
2) Bila dah berbuih sikit tuh, bubuh satu sudu besar SERBUK KUNYIT.
3) Masakkan sampai ayam dah cukup tengal.

Sekarang apa yang boleh dibuatnya, tinggalkan sup dulu dalam periuk. Ambil ayam jer, potong kecil-kecil dan tengok pets korang sudi makan ke tak. Kalo dia makan, tahniah. Bila dia dah makan habis ayam tuh, cuba korang bagi sup tuh kasi dia minum macam air. Kalo itu pun dia habiskan, tahniah sekali lagi!

Khasiat kunyit memang hebat. Dia berfungsi sebagai antibodi dan medicine. Bila kunyit dah dihadam, ia bersalur ke darah lantaran menyebarkan khasiat ke darah. Bila parasit minum darah yang bersih ini, diorang pun mati sebab terlalu toksik untuk mereka, tapi bermanfaat kepada pets kita. Ha...bila cuba keluarkan kutu dari luar tak jadi, kita cuba dari dalam!

Haaa! Camner? Bijak tak mak Willow? Cayang mak...Cayalah, dah sebulan kami buat resepi nih kat Tiffany, dah takde dah kutu dalam dia. Semua dah cabut! XD

Bila korang bacakan pos nih, komen2 dan sharelah yek resepi korang untuk buang kutu dari badan pets.

Sekian.

Dreams Part 47

2012-01-10T14:32:00.001+08:00

I must have been too absorbed in GetBackers for me to have had a dream about them. Well, this is actually a frequent occurence in my case whenever I finish watching an anime. The only anime I had repetitive dreams are Angelique.

Once Hakuouki, 3 times Meine Liebe, My Little Pony, Daddy Long-Legs, YuYu Hakusho, Gensomaden Saiyuki and...oh my god so much more.

Imagine a quiet upperclass town. Grass is trimmed prettily flat and neat, glossy. In the middle there's a beautifully carved white marbel fountain. Now imagine a school bus stopping, few people getting down, one of them being me.

Apparently I was supposed to go to my assigned dormitory in another town and got lost by taking on the wrong bus. How unlike me. I am rather road-savvy you know. That aside.

There I was - lost and confused. Scared shitless. Although the little posh town is well-kept, there seemed to be no inhabitants. It was quiet as a whistle.

I was wondering around aimlessly carrying a huge brown luggage helplessly, some bushes behind me rustled. I turned around quickly and there they were.

Dakkan-ya aka GetBackers Ban Midou and Amano Ginji. Striking their usual pose
"I'm Ban Midou and this is my aibou,"
"Amano Ginji! Yoroshiku!" and shook my hands vigorously.

I think I'm supposed to know who these guys are for I immediately asked "Are you supposed to retrive me?"

"Definitely! Come, come! But before that! We received orders that we are to bring you around before sending you to your dorm!" Ginji was practically bouncing!

So these two cuties dragged me off to first a restaurant filled with people. As Ban-chan and Ginji-kun were ravenously eating their meals I heard a loud thud behind me. Turns out there's a closet right behind me and it collapsed. After a moments of commotion, the owner came about looking extremely displeased.

To my utter horror he blamed it on me because I was the closest to the closet!

Ban Midou was furious and took it upon himself to give the restaurant owner a piece of his mind and dashed off by flunging me on his shoulder, Ginji-kun carrying my bag.

We ended up in a housing areas where we saw all the hoity-toity rich folks sitting in their fancy clothes and fancy meals. Ginji-kun was all oohh and aahh but Ban-chan was all "Cheh".

After a few minutes of touring Ban-Chan and Ginji-kun decided that it was time for me to go to my dorm.

With a heavy heart I had to depart with them.

Ginji-kun gave me a big bear hug saying that they would definitely visit me when they have a chance. Ban-chan patted my head gently "We will meet again, kid."

"Yes, it's a promise!" With that Ginji-kun and Ban-chan got on their Ladybug and drove off.

I woke up.

Ah~~~ what a wonderful dream.
