the PEAR from Belgium!

today i went to the mini market initially to buy some apples. Today there was this girl at the store, and she was there promoting the newly arrived Pear. From the short conversation i had with her, i realize that the way i speak, is really no fun at all... the conversation goes something like this...

# Promoter: Hello Sir! Do you wanna try this newly arrived Pear from Belgium? Is very nice! (while shoving to me a bunch of cut pears. I took a piece, and i put in my mouth and chewed...

# Me: Hmm....quite ok wor...just now you said what? from belgium?

# Promoter: yes right! do you wanna take one? you could store this in the fridge and it could last for three weeks.

# Me: Alright...i'll take one.

# Promoter: let me find one that is more fresh for you...nah! this is better!

# Me: okay thanks...

Then i walked away from the place. i did not even looked into her face and eyes and i don't even remember how she looks like. Lesson learnt: Always look into people and the product, don't only focus on the product. The human element is important too! Then, there is this way below i think i should have said to make the conversation more interesting. Well, next time...

# Promoter: Hello Sir! Do you wanna try this newly arrived Pear from Belgium? Is very nice! (while shoving to me a bunch of cut pears. I took a piece, and i put in my mouth and chewed...

# Me option 1: Hmm....what should i say...taste like Belgium! hahhahaha! BTW, mind you explain to me where the hell is this Belgium?

# Me option 2: How come i didn't saw you before? How come nobody come and promote to me these apples i am going to buy? you know, these apples are from America! How i wish you could be here every time i buy the apples.

# Me option 3: Look, i'll still buy this even if you say they are from planet Mars!

# Me option 4: Hello Leng lui, Do you wanna try this newly arrived apples from America? It's further away than Belgium and is also very nice!

# Promoter: yes right! do you wanna take one? you could store this in the fridge and it could last for three weeks.

# Me option 1: You know what? 3 weeks is just too long. i wish it could only last a day, so i could come back and buy from you again tomorrow!

# Me option 2: the freshest pears will be me and you plucking them in Belgium!

no, i am a human...

"Hello, welcome to MAXIS! For English, press 1, for Malay, press 2, to SPEAK to our customer representative, press 0."

So i pressed "0"

"---Hello---good---morning---how---may---i---help---you---?"

Me: Err,...is this a computer?!"

"---No---i---am---a---human---"

Me: LMAO~~~~

jacky cheung advise 2011.12.10

Somewhere in the middle of the concert, he mentioned about his continual success and able to last for 30 years as a singer, isn't an easy task. He said, in actual, he has continued to put in a lot of effort all these while. And when you listen to him live, only then you'll know what is the true meaning of giving out your best in doing something. We have to adopt this jacky cheung perspective in whatever we do.

Like the way he sang, must put in the whole heart. And continue to put relentless effort to make things better. Of coz he is paid a few millions for that, but think this, isn't he already got the few millions 10 years back? Or even 20 years ago? If you got a few millions today, can you still guarantee that you will still work as hard tomorrow? and still have the heart to chase your passion for the next 20 years?

Jamoica almond fudge, why?

why? why? why?

why don't you wait for me, jamoica almond fudge? you know, i have traveled so far just to have a glimpse of you, to have saved for a month just for this night with you, to have braved through the rain just to arrive at your pink doorstep, only to be greeted by all your friends, without you there. Your mum told me that you're out of stock since yesterday. Your sister, jamoica, is just not good enough, coz she doesn't have the nuts..., and i mean almond nuts.

Why? why don't you wait for me? haven't i been loyal enough? from the land of the sands to the bolehland, have i ever ever cheated on you? from 0.7BD to 7.50RM, i still do love you, but why gave up on me? no matter what happens, i will be RIGHT HERE WAITING, NOW AND FOREVER, UNTIL THE OCEAN DOESN'T TOUCH THE SAND...JAMOICA ALMOND FUDGE.

ACTION!

life is like a box of chocolates!

Have you ever watched "Forrest Gump"?
If you haven't, go watch it. Now. I don't care if you go download legally or illegally, youtube or whatever, just go watch it.

So, there is this one sentence Forrest Gump (Tom hanks) says which is always puzzling me. He says "Life is like a box of chocolates". Unable to understand for a few years, and never really took the trouble to look for the answer. But today, i don't know why. A sudden blink in the braincell, and i got the idea of asking in "Yahoo answers". In 20 minutes, I got 8 replies already! So fucking damn fast!

all the replies are shown below...

I totally understand it now. By the way, chocolates in Malaysia are so so so BORING! All is the same flavour...and is different than the rest of the world. Coz THIS...is BolehLAnd...

Questions i ask :

Life is like a box of chocolate. What does this really means?
And how to relate it with chocolate?
I saw the Forrest Gump, a very nice movie...

Answers i got :

In some boxes of chocolate, there are many different flavors. If you pick a random one, you dont know what your gonna get:)

Originally (and maybe still, if it's decorated classically) boxes of chocolate were just that; a most likely red box would be opened and there would be an assortment of chocolates, unlabeled, so maybe you'll grab one that's milk chocolate or dark chocolate or caramel filled etc. So basically a lot in life is unexpected.

I mean he SAYS "you never know whatcha gonna get" but that aside I always thought it meant "Everything looks the same until you bite into it and find a surprise" sort of "don't judge a book by it's cover" quote. It can mean anything people bend it into though.

Life is like a box of chocolate...you never know what you are going to get.
There are some chocolate boxes with many chocolates and they all look the same but when you eat them you sometimes get marshmallow, jelly, caramel, hazelnut or just plain chocolate. And most of the time, you didn't expect it. This would happen to me, I would always want the chocolaty plain ones but ended up with the yucky hard coconut ones. That is how its relevant. Nowadays most chocolate brands have pictures and labels showing which is which and the ingredients inside them.

THAT guy
It basically means you make blind decisions in life without really knowing the outcome. You choose a chocolate from the box, you don't know what's on the inside of it. You make a decision in life, and even though it was your choice, you really don't know what it will lead to.

don't call me today

If you're calling me on the phone today, and is puzzled why i did not picked up the phone even though the ringtone has lasted like forever, don't be mad. Reason is simple. I left my phone back home.

The feeling is good. PEACEFUL is the best word to describe it. Don't you think that we sometimes were simply over-connected? Facebook lar, twitter lar, email lar, iphone lar, msn lar, skype lar, and many many other lar. Which comes to the question of really how did the people 100 years before today used to call each other. The best was the fixed public phone which only available scarcely in the big towns. The other was the snail mail. And looking back, i don't think people those days are feeling unable to connect to each other. In fact i think people really connect on a much deeper level those days. Well, at least they don't text each other even though that person is sitting right beside you. They'll really have a conversation, face to face. And they laugh, they smile in real-time, not like this :) or like this :> or like this :]

the 3 steps towards happiness and wealth

today about a few hours ago, me and my housemates were having dinner over the table. And this housemate of mine, let's say "F", said he heard his colleague told him this a while ago. So this colleague of "F" who happens to go to some sort of motivational class / course by this one guru, shares with "F" what he learnt. Of all he learnt, it could be summarized into only 3 steps. Once he says this, i was thinking that if this thing really works, then there is no need for us to buy those motivational books with 1 to 2 inches thick, some even thousands of pages...with those small small fonts! If this thing really works...NO, it can't be true! But What The Hell! What is there to lose to know what he has to say? Becoming impatient, i told "F" to spit it out right away!

Step 1
You must LAUGH every day, any occasion, any chance that you have that you could find in your daily lives. JusT LAUGH! :) you see your mother, you laugh! you see your father you laugh! you see your girlfriend, you laugh! you see your enemy you laugh! you see the car you laugh! you see the cat, you laugh! you see the dog you laugh! you see the bird, you laugh too! Even if you see the "hamdai" also you laugh!!!

Step 2
You must make sure that you live in a super clean and orderly environment. Keep your table, workstation, your bed, your room and even yourself clean, at all times! When he said that, i was already thinking about the fact that i haven't mopped the floor in my room for weeks! EEEKKK!

Step 3
You must treat yourself damn fucking good. "F" said our body is something that is closest to us, and if we treat her as rubbish, rubbish will come out, if we treat the body good, it will also produce good results! In other words, spend on yourself! Eat good food like those bird nest, wear only LV or PRADA or HERMES or BURBERRY. That is all.


Immediately after the conversation the first thing i did was to do Step 2. Right after cleaning my room for about an hour, i do really feel damn fucking good. I don't know why, it just felt right. So from here i deduced that i must continue to list down and to do anything that will make me feel good after doing it. I remembered swimming was one of it. So that counts too.

About the Step 1, i think i just have to work on it more. Step 3 is EASY....i'll just "loooook" my credit card and it will be done before i even realize it.

So, any takers out there who wanna try this 3 steps? Wanna become the white mouse? Come! when you are practicing Step 3, count me in!
