Teaching A Lesson

Hai, all. Cerita ni jumpa kat laman web pss skola aku. Mmg tak leh jumpe artikel nmpak menarik cket je mesti rase nak bace. Aku suke sgt mbace. Skrg takde buku cerita yg belum dibace dekat rumah, jadi sejak tahun lepas asik pinjam buku kawan sekelas jea. Bukan tak beli lgsung, tu cerita Fallen tu nmpak je tebal nak mati tapi tak sampai seminggu dah habes bace. Konklusinya, kalau takde buku cerita memang tak lengkap jea rase. Bak kate cikgu sejarah tu, "Rase macam lapar jea."




Ni lah ceritanya, bace lahh. Lw rajen cm aku, hee^^





One day, a father of a very wealthy family took his son on a trip to the country with the firm purpose of showing his son how poor people live. They spent a couple of days and nights on the farm of what would be considered a very poor family. On their return from their trip, the father asked his son, “How was the trip?”
“It was great, Dad.”
“Did you see how poor people live?” the father asked.
“Oh yeah,” said the son.
“So, tell me, what did you learn from the trip?” asked the father.
The son answered, “I saw that we have one dog and they had four. We have a pool that reaches to the middle of our garden, and they have a creek that has no end. We have imported lanterns in our garden, and they have the stars at night. Our patio reaches to the front yard, and they have the whole horizon. We have a small piece of land to live on, and they have fields that go beyond our sight. We have servants who serve us, but they serve others. We buy our food, but they grow theirs. We have walls around our property to protect us; they have friends to protect them.”
The boy’s father was speechless.
Then his son added, “Thanks, Dad, for showing me how poor we are.”

Yayy, Another Blogpost!

Hello, tiny Earthlings. 💗 I'm currently doing a correction for my thesis report. Oh it is so much convenient, actually, to post things via twitter because I can keep it short and simple and secret. By secret, I mean, not mentioning the real situation -- just some words of happy mood or frustration. Either one. **sigh This online banking web is annoying because it does not allow me to view my past transactions clearly. I hate that. I hate things that says "No" to me, basically. I'd like to check though. Do I have to get a copy from over-the-counter? Soooo high-tech. **sigh I'm happy. I'm eating again. My birthday for this year was a blast. I feel loved. Thank you to those who made it happened :) I've never had so many birthday wishes for a long time. Since January is a busy month, for everyone. So, yeah. Thank you for remembering and for caring enough to wish the already-happy me a happy birthday. I'm touched. You guys used your time on m...

Totally inspired

Now now, there's nothing to laugh at. I think my drawings are not that bad, right? I know I can't draw like my mentor, Attifah. Hee, maybe just not yet. I'll be good, just wait and see. So, this is probably the second time since the last time I actually uploaded some snaps of my drawings. Last time I drew the characters of Le Gardenie - the two friends and Lemon. It's been ages, I know, I even forget their names. Le Gardenie was really a good comic. This year I actually found them on Mangareader.net so, you can read the series. You'll love the characters, of course. About my drawings, I've been drawing since I was like 9 so, my drawings have gone through lots of changes - like a revolution, really. I started with stupid bunch of doodles which if I take a look now, even I can't figure out what I've drawn exactly. Hehe. But, you just have to laugh at yourself every now and then. Kinda good theraphy, pffft. The drawing I've just uploaded is inspired ...

Of Feeling Too Comfortable

Evening, petty people. Hehe 💕 It sure has been awhile since i last post anything. Hm well, I actually got something to tell. I've been feeling good recently - goofy, funny, happy and whatnot. Things are going great if you'd ask. Still are. However, I believe I have not tell a single soul about this uneasiness I feel when I get to certain comfortable state. I do not fancy feeling comfortable, especially when it gets too comfortable. And suddenly, comfortable is not comforting at all. They say, things go bad when you get too happy. Not hoping for it to come true, well, who on their right mind would? But, you see, life has its ups and downs. Sometimes things go as you favour them to be and the other times things just do not favour you. **sigh Unfortunately, I've experienced a state where everything was frustrating. Feelings were frustrating, people were frustrating, appetite, campus, life, me. I, myself, was frustrating. I lost half of my life. It felt...
