I sent my second uncle to the bank this morning. He mentioned that he is at the edge of death. He uttered something which is very reflective to me. “What is money to me now?” This is what he uttered when he transferred certain amount of money to my grandmother.
He said he rather wants his life to be prolonged than the amount of money. Upon listening to that, I cried. At the same time, I recalled a saying goes “Money is everything.” Is money everything? What can money do to a person that is at the edge of death?
If money can make one’s life immortal, then, it’s everything.
This is my story, my diary. At times, things are better to be told through writings, rather than speech. This blog illustrates my daily encounters and reflections. Hope they inspire all of you and channel my thoughts and emotions.

Home sweet home
The journey of going back might be tiring and tedious (whereby I had to stay overnight at the airport and I did not get to sleep for the whole night), but it's worthwhile.
Upon arriving, I was welcomed by my mom, my sister and my nieces at the airport. Then, we had our breakfast. This is incredible. Then, my mom and I used bus to go back to Sarikei. Then, I drove back. Bear in mind that prior to this, I didn't sleep at all. So, it was quite a tiring day.
But home eased my tiredness. I am sure this would be a joyful holiday. Glad that i come back (prior to this, I didn't plan to go back since the ticket was so expensive).
Happy holidays guys!!

Retaliate or Do Nothing?
It is inevitable that we make mistakes. But, we have to admit when we do something wrong. If you tried to do something to cover your fault, it will double your foolishness and stupidity. And, make sure that we do not laugh at the others when the others do something funny or wrong, as we do not know when we will do something funny in the future.
At KLIA
I am now at KLIA. Waiting for tomorrow morning flight. As early as 6.55am. Can't wait to be at home. This is my first time going home after almost 3 months in UKM. After 2 weeks, I need to go back to UKM again. So sad...=(
To all my friends, happy holidays and Selamat Hari Raya for those who celebrate it.

The Day After Tomorrow
Mandarin version
我对你 感觉胜过爱情
因为有你 给我勇气给我用不完的运气
其实也想好好爱你
只怕到最后不小心 让你伤心
对不起 我对你 再好再亲密都不能在一起
最后看你在别人怀里
有天我会找到我的唯一
还微笑祝福你
English version
You are more than a lover to me
You give me strength and unlimited luck
Actually I want to love you to my fullest
But I am afraid that this will hurt you ultimately
I am sorry, that no matter how close we are, we are still friends
Ultimately, seeing you in the his hug
I believe I will find my true love
And wish you happy with a smile.

Are You Ready?
We are always ready to live,
but never living.
We are always ready to love,
but never loving.
but never living.
We are always ready to love,

The Grey Zone
They laugh joyfully at one end
they sob pitifully at the other end.
I, standing in the grey zone,
smiling at the laughter, and
comforting the crybabies.
