Smiling Ear To Ear!

Yupp..No kidding but that's exactly what I am doing while writing this entry! Hahahaa! Any guess why?? Never mind, save your brain for other guessing because I am too happy, so let me just tell you people why.. After re-taking for the 3rd time, at last I pass the JPJ - track test! Maybe for some people it's nothing but to me who have to re-take it 3 time, you can't imagine how relief and heavenly happy I am right now..

2 weeks ago, I almost gave-up and even thought of not taking the test again but after few days of thinking and reconsidering with the help of advise from hubby and some blogger friends, I decided to try for the one last time. Thank God that I manage to pass the test with no hassle at all!To tell the truth, I am not really as nervous as the 1st and 2nd time and I guess that help me a lot. Thanks Tata, your tips of avoiding the nervousness really work but instead of bercerita-cerita, sia baca jokes sambil dengar lagu =P.. And all the while thinking that it just another class..

So, I am glad that I listen to my hubby and didn't give up. For those who are facing the same situation, never give-up and never lose faith in yourself.. People said, it's okay if we do mistake or fail, as long as we can get back to our feet and are willing to learn from the failure/mistake..

P/S: Also thanks to Just and Aki for their advise/tips and support!

Positive Thinking!


That what I been done to kill my frustrated condition last Sunday! When I went to my driving class last Sunday, I keep saying to myself to think positive, that I can do it and yes indeed I can! I executed the going down slope successfully though I need more practice to do it smoothly! I will never doubt the power of positive thinking anymore! =P

Honestly, I been doing this since 11 years ago when my life turned upside-down and it has become some kind of amulet to me every time I make a mistake in my life. Whenever I realized that I have done a mistake, small or big one, I will try to console myself from breaking down by thinking positively that the mistake happened for reason, that everything will be alright in the end. Sound like I am making an excuses right? Some people even said that doing this doesn't help at all! But, to me I need this to prevent myself from stress/depression that might effect people around me since I am a person that can stress out easily even over a small matter and of course I do it with reality intact okay since we live in real world not in fairy tales..(*smile)

However it doesn't mean I always think positive of everything since on some matter I do have to think realistically. What I am doing preaching all this stuff when I knew all of you already know the power of positive thinking?? Stale topic suda ni Tunung!! (*mentally slapping myself)

Stale or not, I want to have my say too and I am done now! Until next post, have a nice day everyone and don't forget to THINK POSITIVELY! Peace no war.... (^_^) v

A Box Of Kisses


Image by Mr. Google
Ehem... I have stare to the monitor for quite some times but couldn't find the right words to start my rant today since I am kind of free. I didn't realize that I have zoned out until my hand-phone rings. Oppps, hubby called to inform me that he will arrive in 20 minutes to fetch me out for lunch. Mean I only have 20 minutes to type down my rants! 

Okay, since today is Friday and last working day for this week, I thought (earlier) I am  not going to ruin anybody weekend mood by writing something teary-dreary. However, I don't have time to elaborate any idea that lingered in my mind so I decided just to share below motivational story, again from academictips.org
Some time ago, a man punished his 3-year-old daughter for wasting a roll of gold wrapping paper. Money was tight and he became infuriated when the child tried to decorate a box to put under the Christmas tree.
Nevertheless, the little girl brought the gift to her father the next morning and said, “This is for you, Daddy.” He was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction, but his anger flared again when he found the box was empty.
He yelled at her, “Don’t you know that when you give someone a present, there’s supposed to be something inside it?”
The little girl looked up at him with tears in her eyes and said,”Oh, Daddy, it is not empty. I blew kisses into the box. All for you, Daddy.”
The father was crushed. He put his arms around his little girl, and he begged for her forgiveness.
It is told that the man kept that gold box by his bed for years and whenever he was discouraged, he would take out an imaginary kiss and remember the love of the child who had put it there.

In a very real sense, each of us as humans have been given a gold container filled with unconditional love and kisses from our children, friends, family and God. There is no more precious possession anyone could hold. Often enough, in our effort to achieve all of those temporary fame and wealth, we hurt our loves one feeling especially our kid, parent and even our sibling and only realize what they mean to us when it's too late.. I know the feeling of guilt and regret over neglecting/hurting the one who close to me.

So, treat your love one nicely so that you won't live with the same guilt and regret I feel and believe me that your life will much more meaningful. Spend time with your family, kid, parent or even your sibling because in the moment of difficulties they were the 1st person you will turn to for encouragement..

GEEEZZZZ.. Time's up! Need to fix my make-up because hubby will be here in any minutes.. Have a nice Friday and blasting weekend!

Thought For The day:- How The Poor Live


Image source: ning network
When I was just a little kid, I dreamed to be wealthy person so that I can buy big houses, can travel all over the world and can have everything my heart desired. At that age I thought money is everything and never crossed in my mind that there are more important thing in this world than money. Yep, maybe it's true that money can buy anything, can even buy your happiness but at the same time money make you blind and less alert with our surrounding.

Lots of people who have more than enough money tended to forgot how to appreciate their wealth and wasted it over trivial thing. Lots of wealthy people forgot to be grateful for their fortune and never give back to the less fortune people. To think of this fact, I am glad and thankful for what I have and achieved right now though I am far from wealthy but at least I earned it with my own sweat.

If people ask me whom I respect the most, wealthy people or poor people? My answer is poor people because to me they are fighter, a hero in the battle of misery. I respect them for working hard just for a bowl of rice. I admired their will to keep on living though they have less than other people.

Ya, wealthy people might earn their fortune by working hard too but over time they will forgot the hardness because they are too accustom to their comfort zone. If they were put into  those poor people shoes , I don't think they will last for even a single day.

Okay, I think I have rants too much already. Before I stop and switch off my PC, I think I'll leave you all with below moral story from academictips.org to ponder with:-
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.”
Enjoy & have a blasting Sunday!
