another side of God's amazing creation. :)

oh mine, no more days to-go, 0 Mississippi it is... :P

it only take a moment to recognize wonders

my friend wrote a poem called words, it was lovely and i can't agree more that words can hurt and heal at the same time whichever you choose to say it.

i saw a friend tag line which says: it's a beautiful day and a lovely night. it makes me stop and feel the beauty of every second i could have. i feel good and so bless as i have counted my blessings.

i will continue to do my best for what i want, one at a time. no hurry, be patience. i believed everyone has their moment to come. continue to work hard and have fun and prepare for that moment to surprise us. 

by the way, i supposed every now is a moment too, if we could recognize, it only take a moment to do so : )

hippo & turtle counting their blessings

the hippo may have blurted with some hiccups

the turtle may thought he is still not there

suddenly they stop, counting the blessings they have in their cup

and when they look up, they start to smile in the air

You may think you have challenges, but you have so many blessings too. Sometimes it takes only a moment of conscious effort to recognize those blessings. Once you focus on the gifts instead of the problems, your whole perspective will change and you will see blessings everywhere :)

i have been getting older & older ( :

i look at the mirror, i thought so i am getting old

i barely recognize the glimmer, and that my age was untold

i may have dash through without knowing, that time has now reveal

i may have known this could be aging, and if i would feel surreal


i have been getting older & older ...... 

i may have outgrown from time, and have reap some from the wise

i could have been here for a lifetime, looking for that something or someone in clockwise

i may have found all that i could, i believed beauty lies everywhere that can be seen

life is really good, for all that i have been


i have been getting older & older ... 

time have tell my age, i share with you all my grace

i have filled my life with wonders of page, my story lies at all place

oh mine, i really have been really getting older & older ...

cheers

a silent moment to be idle

in a silent night

canon D makes it even more serene

clouds of thoughts floating in the air of space

following every expression of the melody

mind became empty

drifting away with the harmony

this is the time to become idle

moving into a moment of peace

Hachiko: A Dog's Story, 2009

It was Good Friday. A good movie for the cozy night before head to bed for a good rest.

It was based on a true story of the faithful dog Hachiko. In 1924, Hachiko was brought to Tokyo by his owner, Hidesaburo Ueno, a professor in the agriculture department at the University of Tokyo. During his owner's life Hachiko saw him out from the front door and greeted him at the end of the day at the nearby Shibuya Station. The pair continued their daily routine until May 1925, when Professor Ueno did not return on the usual train one evening. The professor had suffered a stroke at the university that day. He died and never returned to the train station where his friend was waiting.

Hachiko was given away after his master's death, but he routinely escaped, showing up again and again at his old home. Eventually, Hachikō apparently realized that Professor Ueno no longer lived at the house. So he went to look for his master at the train station where he had accompanied him so many times before. Each day, Hachiko waited for Professor Ueno to return. And each day he did not see his friend among the commuters at the station.

The permanent fixture at the train station that was Hachiko attracted the attention of other commuters. Many of the people who frequented the Shibuya train station had seen Hachiko and Professor Ueno together each day. They brought Hachiko treats and food to nourish him during his wait.

This continued for nine years, with Hachiko appearing only in the evening time, precisely when the train was due at the station.

Hachiko died on a street in Shibuya on Mar 8, 1935. His stuffed and mounted remains are kept at the National Science Museum of  Japan in Ueno, Tokyo.

In April 1934, a bronze statue in his likeness was erected at Shibuya StationHachiko himself was present at its unveiling. The statue was recycled for the war effort during World War II. In 1948 The Society for Recreating the Hachiko Statue commissioned Takeshi Ando, son of the original artist who had since died, to make a second statue. The new statue, which was erected in August 1948, still stands and is an extremely popular meeting spot. The station entrance near this statue is named "Hachiko-guchi", meaning "The Hachiko Exit", and is one of Shibuya Station's five exits.

a good weekend back home

enjoyed a good book on my ride back home to Penang over the weekend - 'Have a Little Faith' by Mitch Albom. Can't wait for paperback, but the hardcover has 20% discount too! :) Not the best book I've ever read, but it was definitely a good read as it gets me continue flipping the pages.
Have a Little Faith: A True Story 

went cheng meng. help dad to clean up our great grand parents graveyard. glad we went. on the other side, grand dad was wise enough to have his cremated. clean and easy to manage. i still remember he says that he don't want to trouble his grand and great grand children to be in the hot sun during cheng meng in the future. awesome guy, know many languages as he works as an interpreter in the court, i thought it was pretty cool that grand dad work in such a profession! :P

mum made pizza and spaghetti! it was really yummy as usual. she loves to cook for the family, don't mind spending hours in the kitchen, her heavenly home. i really thought she has great talent in recipes and making them lovely.

watched 'the blind side' for 3 times over the weekend! it was THAT GOOD. trust me, it truly was. Sandra Bullock very well deserved her Oscar! A story of Michael Oher, an American Footballer. Not easy to stumble upon a good movie these days, this is no doubt one of the very good ones! :)
