Ancient instrument pipe


This guy really need a good lung.... The sound is like some kind of new age style... Well... Recently saw a monk who went to purchase a bread in the shop. Actually make me think that time has change. Even monks went to a bank to deposit money and went to buy food and even went to eat at a restaurant. Seems like monks cannot live like the past which is to stay away from people and money. Maybe in some country there is still such monks who ask for food from people... Maybe the present monk seems like another kind of job in sg rather than someone who want to stay away from the city life. The only difference maybe they do not marry, and possess worldly material...

People who cut queue.......



This morning, got a guy who is sitting beside me, he keep digging his nose and shoot to open air like nobody business... Lucky he drop off soon.
Next I went for my dinner at a food stall, suddenly a woman appear out of no where... She go in front and treat me like a transparent and order food. Usually I just let the person go ahead as I am not a hungry ghost. Sometimes the stall holder saw that and will say to that person please line up. Sometimes they didn't saw it, I will just let it pass. But today, I seem to be a bit pissed off. So I don't care, if the woman gets the food first, I will walk off. So When the stall holder ask, I say I come first so I take my food and walked away. Later that woman walked pass and look at my direction.

What to do


Maybe when you want to be pro in something you had to be focus. I had too many things to do and is not being focus on one thing... Should I gave up one thing in order to achieve other? If my health is much better, maybe I can achieve more... Yesterday saw a short doc on TV, it shows a teenager who is very good and interested in math who is from hong kong, he wanted to be in that field of study and be some researchers. While other teenagers who do not even know which way to go in life, he already is on his way. Most important is that his parents is supporting him. He had to be focus so he gave up his piano lessons and concentrate on his maths.

Arcade


Today I had pass by a arcade, so i went in for a while. I am waiting for a friend who is interested to buy some magic tricks from me. So I sat down beside a soft toy that you have to pick from the machine.... I saw a man trying to pick. And after a try, he walks away. The person in charge will come and place one of the soft toy near the exit, so pp will be easy to win. But the person who tries a few times, every time he tries, when the machine hooks on the soft toy, it shakes a bit and the soft toy fall off from the hooks. and had to try again. It is made in such a way that it seems to be easy to win and yet hard to get. I think that most machine are like that. It looks as though it is very easy and almost winning but it is not easy and maybe even if you insert $10 and still not getting a soft toy. I am sure that a lot of people thinks in the same way. When something is easy to get everybody try to gets it. Gamble and things like that seems to be easy money but yet difficult to get. Some other things like it seems hard to be done or achieve, yet people are doing it and getting results. For example, 2nd handphone shop. Some people might thought that it is easy to get a free phone when you sign up a plan. So why go for used phone? But lots of pp are getting them. And they are making money! hmm... I think it is a weird world....

Rosemarie (Rose) Siggins The Woman with Half a Body



After watching the great magician, Criss Angel, who has done the trick that is to pull a woman into half body, I am curious is there such a real person! It is really amazing to pull out a woman into 2! It shocked all the people around, it is really funny when you see the person who pulled out the body of the woman...haha... Well magic are just illusion. Later I found out that there is really such a person. Born with a rare genetic disorder known as Sacral Agenesis, Rose had deformed legs with feet pointing in opposite directions. There was no feeling in the legs and, as a child, she was in danger of harming herself. When she was two years old her mother, after consulting with the doctors at the hospital, decided that the best course of action was to have the legs amputated. This insightful decision by her mother allowed Rose to lead a fairly normal childhood.
For years, the administrators at the local school forced Rose to wear artificial legs, they wanted her to look like everybody else. When she was in eighth grade she rebelled and refused to wear her prosthetic limbs, turning up for school on her skateboard. She wanted to be normal, and her normal is Rose who walks on her hands and has no legs. After meeting with her parents who were being very supportive, and realising that Rose was very stubborn, the school relented and allowed her to return, without her prosthetics.
Rose discovered that she was pregnant. Rose's pregnancy was extraordinary and ground-breaking, no-one with Sacral Agenesis had ever given birth. The only doctor who didn't advise Rose to have an abortion was Dr. Wilson who says "This couple have committed themselves to a pregnancy and she is, basically, laying her life on the line because nobody knows what this means, no-one has lived this experience before. With the first counselling with Rose and David I was very specific and told them that they have to know that if they move forward with this that she could die." The main concerns were with her lungs being compressed, as the baby was likely to grow up the way because of her short stature. The other concern was how she would tolerate a caesarean delivery, because the baby was lying transversely she would have to be opened across the top, a true 19th century caesarean delivery. Rose told her mum that if there were any complications and there was a choice between her life and the baby's, she should choose the baby.
Having given birth to a miracle baby, Rose was about to experience a terrible tragedy. Luke had just celebrated his second birthday when Rose's mother was diagnosed with terminal cancer. She held the family together, provided an emotional pillar, and organised the vital day-to-day running of the house. Her death had a disastrous effect on everyone around her. Rose's father had already had the onset of Alzheimer's and dementia so he, like her brother, didn't understand what was happening. It became apparent that Rose was next in line to run the family and do everything her mother had done. As well as looking after her son and husband, Rose now cares for her dad and brother. Rose's dad, James, has smoked all his life and now has to rely on a constant supply of oxygen. He is also suffering from schizophrenia and the onset of Alzheimer's.
Rose has great moral strength and a remarkable attitude she says "A lot of people with disabilities feel that life owes them something, and I was raised in a way that no, no-one owes you a dime. The world doesn't owe you anything, this is what you have and you use your resources and you get through life. My personal opinion is, get up and go for it, just do it."
This woman is amazing! Despite all odds, she is having great strength and even get married and gave birth to a child! I am thinking if she is a normal person, her achievement in the society should be far greater than anyone of us.

Old lady who sell tissues....



Well... Recently while talking to my colleague, I got to know that she had bought expensive tissues from old lady. She think that they are poor thing to come out and wanted to help. But once she bought a tissue from an old lady, she saw her drinking coffee.... at coffee bean!! oh my god! She sell a packet of tissue for a dollar but spent it at a coffee bean for high tea.... My colleague was very angry and scold the old lady for that. Most people will buy tissue from the old people is because of sympathy, because normally a packet will only cost a few cents... but buying from them will be about few times more. Maybe not all the old folks are like that. Some are really in need for money. So don't expect they will make use of your money wisely as when it is their money they can spent as they like.

Old man park bicycle at the bus stop

There is a bus who is getting near a bus-stop, suddenly the bus horn. Then I saw an old man is blocking the road with his bicycle when he went to spit at the dustbin. The old man take his time and ride away his bicycle... When the bus was moving, the bicycle was riding slowly in the middle of the road... luckily it turns in a different direction and the bus went on.

Choice to make....

Well... Some choices are necessary to make in life. Some people had make the wrong choice and regret. While some are happy of the choice they made. Without a direction is like driving a car without a destination... If you had a direction, at least some motivation will occurs... Just don't give up on hope....

Idoms....

Absence make heart grow fonder VS out of sight, out of mind.
Which do you think is more true? From what I see is that certain things or objects that you like a lot or even a person that you love. When you do not get to see them, it will make you think and miss them. So how about out of sight out of mind? Maybe certain things that trouble you or something that you dislike. So how true...?

Birds of a feather flock together VS opposite attract.
Birds of course that they will be together if they are the same... Just like at little india, you will see all of the same colour walking together right? If guys like soccer they will gather a group together to watch right? That is about the meaning.... But what about opposite attracts? Man and woman are opposite correct? Yet they are attract to each other... So actually there is no definite answer or one answer to a question or even a quote or idoms...

Chinese from China

When you heard about people from China, everybody will think about the "liu ying". Especially the girls from china. They are very aggressive to get customer and thick skin as in they don't bother what other people thinks. They can speak loudly on bus as well. There was once I heard on the bus that a woman is sitting down at a seat. She was talking on the phone loudly. Maybe it is their culture to speak loudly and angrily... Anyway, she talked about men in local that are useless and talking about herself as a "chicken". How many men had got to bed with her. And she is going to back to her country and if any man want to marry her she will stay. Oh my God! She was talking at the voice that the whole bus can hear about her "business". She also seems to be polite and ask the person standing whether want to seat or not but still loudly. Well... she seems to be in her 40s. Then the other case, I had seen in is in the MRT station. There was an old man and the woman seems to be younger than him for about 10 years but size quite big compare to the man. The woman hit the man and shouted that the man bully her. The woman even throw a bag of things at the man. He seems to have some injury. Then the MRT person come in and brought them to the police station. It proofs that china girls are not easily bullied. The old man should have stay away from china woman instead of getting cheated and beaten up. Lots of people watch the show. After the show, they make comment like "oh it is another china woman."
There are some china people I got to know are quite alright. I heard a story from a guy who came from china that china now are advance and rich but for the average family it is hard to survive. The jobless rate are quite high compared here. The pay are as the same as here. But if they earn from here, when going back they will be rich. The housing are as the same as local but also not that cheap with bad quality but is much bigger than here a lot. They even have a garden in their house. The food are not that clean so they are used to those kind of food. The girls there are worse compared here. He also say that the local are more innocence compared with the people there. They are more crafty. This china guy seems to be quite good person. As he do not have much qualification, he work 2 jobs and hope to get enough money back home. Maybe because of the environment that makes most of the china people thick skin and talking loudly and also have to be more crafty to survive...

Control by fate?





After all this while, I felt that my fate seems to be fixed and is really hard to change. From what I calculated for myself and what is happening, I wonder if there is still chance to change it. Feeling much low and lost. Still hope for miracle to happen even if it is not possible. Maybe I should stop dreaming and be realistic to do what is necessary.

Nothing is easy....




If you want to be successful, you had to be different and do something that nobody thinks of it or had done it before. But how is it possible for that to happen? Unless you are a genius. Another way to be successful maybe what lots of people are doing the same thing and you are doing the best and nobody can compare with you.

Insurance

I found out that people will try to make use of different and special way to get what they want... Today while I am on my way back home. A guy came up to me and ask me by pointing at a direction at the shopping center.... he ask... do you come here often? Usually, people will answer to you yes or no. But I choose to ignore... because I know what is their intention... I know that I am blur, and maybe a bit nerd and slow to reaction and reply... But I know it in my brain, it is just not express out of me. Well... this guy give me a feeling like he want to act smart or what... and try to get my attention and talk to him.... I just smile and walk away... In my mind, i m thinking.. I already know what you wan... so no point trick me... haha... but I now do not have income.... so no point listening to the insurance talk...

But still don't feel like driving... I got a lot of people to meet up with but no time... I am late and I rush to meet up and settle some things....

10 floor blk 319 AMK




Sometimes when you rent a room in a flat, you do not know what kind of owner is it. If you discover that the owner is bad.... you have to move again. Without the contract, the owner or tenant will suffer... People are good at making money by renting out the flat...but try to care a little bit for the people, not when the tenant pay the money, the owner doesn't care about the promise they made....
