Is money everything ??
Money can buy a house, but never a homeMoney can buy us a clock, but can never buy us time
Money can buy us a bed, but can never buy us good night sleepMoney can buy us a book, but can never buy us knowledge and wisdom
Money can buy a post in any company, but can never buy respectMoney can buy a doctor, but can never buy us health
Money can buy blood, but can never buy life
Money can buy a friend and a person, but can never buy his/heart heart and love
For myself, I do not consider the monetary part as something that is so important in my life. Of course, everyone needs money but it's not success at all for me. I do believe that success comes from the spiritual part of our life. Which we would be facing after death
Those who believe money can do everything are frequently prepared to do everything for money. Would you rather live richly ?? Or die with riches.
An American businessman was at the pier of a tiny coastal Mexicanvillage when a small boat with just one fisherman docked. Inside the small boat were several large yellowfin tuna. The American complimented the Mexican on the quality of his fish and asked how long it took to catch them. The Mexican replied, "Only a little while."
The American then asked why didn't he stay out longer and catch more fish? The Mexican said that he had enough to support his family's immediate needs. The American then asked, "But what do you do with the rest of your time?"
The Mexican fisherman replied,
"I sleep late, fish a little, play with my children, take a siesta with my wife Maria, stroll into the village each evening where I sip wine and play guitar with my amigos. I have a full and busy life, senor."
The American scoffed,
"I am a Harvard MBA and could help you. You should spend more time fishing and with the proceeds buy a bigger boat and with the proceeds from the bigger boat you could buy several boats, eventually you would have a fleet of fishing boats. Instead of selling your catch to a middleman you would increase your profits and sell directly to the processor, eventually opening your own cannery. You would control the product, processing and distribution. You would need to leave this tiny coastal fishing village and move to Mexico City, then to LA and eventually NYC where you will run your expanding enterprise."
The Mexican fisherman asked, "But senor, how long will this all take?"
The American replied, "15-20 years."
"But what then, senor?"
The American laughed and said, "That's the best part. When the time is
right you would announce an IPO and sell your company stock to the public
and become very rich, you would make millions."
"Millions, senor? Then what?"
The American said, "Then you would retire. Move to a tiny coastal fishing village where you could sleep late, fish a little, play with your kids, take a siesta with your wife, stroll to the village in the evenings where you could sip wine and play your guitar with your amigos."
"But I though I was doing this all along, senor ??"

Curious, energetic, adaptable, and creative, ENFPs like considering unconventional approaches. They enjoy batting around ideas and finding creative solutions and are energized and intrigued by new possibilities and anything out of the ordinary. ENFPs tend to be talkative, enthusiastic, playful, and generally fun-loving people. Warm and caring, ENFPs have strong personal values upon which they base most decisions. Conversations with ENFPs can be very circular as they excitedly move from one topic to the next, making connections and associations. Unconventional and occasionally irreverent, they pride themselves on their uniqueness and originality. Optimistic, and spontaneous, ENFPs have a strong sense of the possible. For them, life is an exciting drama. Because they are so interested in possibilities, ENFPs see significance in all things and prefer to keep lots of options open.

Tag ?? Alright -.-
Troubled
Why?? Why?? How??
What then ? Am I gonna go for the other alternative ? To continue on with colleges ? Alright ! It's a good choice but what am I gonna do ? These question have been storming my mind for a very long period of time. If I've gotten my decision, do I have the capability to even pay for those tuition fees since scholarship would eventually reject me(I'm not a very good scorer in my exams fyi)
I believe that I did not even have the chance to think bout it last time due to my tight schedule but now that I have the time, I'm thinking so many stuffz which ends up with a question mark.
What should I do ??

The Act Of Forgiving
This made me ponder a lot and I took some actions to ask for forgiveness from others. Sadly, I believe things are way too late to be changed. I can only hope that things get better as time passes.
Many don't realise it thus they don't change

Attitude !!!
With this I end my post

The road not taken
I take my leave
New Year 2008
Year 2008 had come to and end and year 2009 just step foot into my life ... This just makes me one year older ! (darned). I do not know why am I feeling so weird now but indeed I'm not actually happy this new year due to some reasons which I do not know... Somehow I feel that this year's new year is a moody one for me.. Where almost all things that I've been doing for the past years end just like that...
Well, year 2008 had been a really tough and hard year for me to handle. Having so much work in school and facing my major exams this year was a headache.. What more I have the whole band to handle and a concert to organize with so much politics going on. I'm glad I made through it and well it's now the past. I believe that I should put down things right from this moment already but somehow, I'm having this hard feeling on myself... I'm feeling sad watching and looking at things go off like this.. Well perhaps it's just my 'dumb' emo fever coming back again...
- My Final Band Competition 2008 ( Top 2 placings ) - Failed Badly
- Do Good In My Studies , SPM ( 9 - 10 A's ) - Yet to know
- Focus On Important Stuff And Avoid Procrastination - I procrastinated a lot
- Dare To Speak Out More Rather Than Being Quiet - Only if someone starts it
- Update This Blog Regularly !! - Are my updates considered regular ?? lolz
- Be an extrovert rather than an introvert
- I don't wanna be the one who sits down there laughing when jokes are made by others anymore ... It just ain't myself but somehow my mind can't move fast enuf to react with situations .. Well, I managed to speak out last year and I don't want to be an introvert no more
- Be someone rather 'polite'
- Rough language have to go offt my mouth .. As a christian, I suppose that words that comes out from my mouth isn't suppose to be so.. I'm going to make this change ASAP as I believe that the current me isn't good enough...
- Be happy !!
- I don't wanna continue the emotional and sad type of myself anymore .. As what ppl always say life goes on whether it's happy or sad.. Why not go on happily rather than being sad all the time ?? This must change !!
- Sleep early !!! (I'm not sure if I can do this)
- I'm sleeping early every night from now onwards and waking up early from now onwards.. say around 1.00am the LATEST(it's very early for me as I sleep at 4.00am nowadays) ?? and waking up at around 8.30am since it's holiday for me now.. Bwahahaha
- Do God's work
- I think this would be the main aim for me this year. YDP 2008 actually woke me up from deep sleep.. The ones who woke me up includes alvin,amy,daniel and well .. that group, you know who u are.. I think I shud start to do things rather than being a sleeper all the time...
