ending and beginning

a story has to start from somewhere with something..with every ending there is a beginning..although in real life there is hardly a happily-ever-after-fairytale-ending..i still believe that although there is the "DESTINY" and "FATE" factor, we have the power to create the ending we would like and want. well at least it is the attempt of it..that matters..

so...do we want a good beginning or..work for a better ending?..i wonder

hear no evil..see no devil..

At times, it is better to be ignorance. Practice the art of selective listening and reading. There will surely be people out there purposely wanting to disrupt the peaceful life we lead..
well, ignore them, treat their words and actions with a sensor sieving out the badies and listening to the goodies.. we will get peace of mind..no more “arkhu toe” Yeh!
So..what to do, but practice practice and more practice on the ART of Ignorance!
Just..xxxx them..yeh!

time: 8.00 pm (free admission)

30 May (Fri) – Hong Kong Nocturne (香江花月夜)
In this raucous and dazzling musical directed by one of Shaw Brothers’ most distinctive filmmakers, three beautiful sisters play out their trials and tribulations in the entertainment business. Dir: Inoue Umetsugu. 1967. Hong Kong. 128 mins. PG. Hsi Chang, Paul Chang, Hsin Yen Chao, Kang-Yeh Cheng. In Mandarin with English subtitles.

31 May (Sat) – Come Drink With Me (大醉俠;)
Posing as the errant knight Golden Swallow, Xiyan (Cheng) sets out to rescue her brother, an official held hostage by the Five Tiger Gang; she is aided, at first obliquely, by the beggar Drunken Cat (Yueh), who leads a rag-tag troupe of kids (great haircuts!) who sing for small change. He is actually Fan Dabei, a ‘drunken master’ in retreat since the murder of his teacher, and the plot shift occurs when he realises that the gang’s mastermind is the traitor who did the foul deed.

Enjoy!

Thermodynamics?of HELL?

The following is a short story which was forwarded from a Friend..sure is funny..the way the student try to explain logically for something which seem unexplanable..:P

~ Thermodynamics of Hell ~

The following is one of Dr. Schalmbaugh's Final Test questions for May 1997. (Dr. Schalmbaugh, University of Oklahoma School of Chemical Engineering is known for asking questions such as this on his final exams.)

May 1997, Momentum, Heat and Mass Transfer II Final Exam Question:
"Is hell exothermic or endothermic? Support your answer with truth.''
___________________________________________________________________

Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law or some variant. One student, however, wrote the following:

"First, we postulate that if souls exist, then they must have some mass. If they do, then a mole of souls can also have a mass. So, at what rate are souls moving into hell and at what rate are souls leaving?

I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for souls entering hell, lets look at the different religions that exist in the world today. Some of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to hell. Since there are more than one of these religions and people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all people and all souls go to hell.

With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in hell to increase exponentially.

Now, we look at the rate of change in volume in hell. Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in hell to stay the same, the ratio of the mass of souls and volume needs to stay constant.

Case 1: If hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter hell, then the temperature and pressure in hell will increase until all hell breaks loose.

Case 2: If hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until hell freezes over.

So which is it? If we accept the postulate given to me by Theresa Banyan during my freshman year, "it will be a cold night in hell before I sleep with you" and take into account the fact that I still have NOT succeeded in having sexual relations with her, then case 2 cannot be true.

Thus, hell is exothermic."

The student, Tim Graham, got the only A.

i wonder..

I believe that for people in love, for those who are in a relationship, it would mean flying high together, reaching for goals with support from one another and to move along in this fast paced high-tech-age at a quicker and energetic speed. For having a life partner would mean not as a burden or an obstacle to achievements and success but as a motivator, supporter, advisor, protector and most of all a companion. One who would despite our defects and weakness can accept us for who we are and give love, care and concern! One who would remain faithful, loyal, trustworthy and understanding! One who would put us in the priority list and not himself or his friends! One who would nearly love us or more than himself.

Am I creating a web of fantasy or is there really existence of such relationship one can create? Can one find such a person, such a motivator, supporter, advisor, protector and a life time companion? I wonder…
With my soft heart and indecisive mindset.. and ordinary looks .. will I be able to meet him ..or has I already have him but like an old granny who keeps looking for her reading glasses when they are in fact on her head all the time?..i wonder..

nothing special

问他为什麽看的入神？
他耸耸肩说:「没什麽,真的。」
一朵小白云低低的滑过枯黄的草原。
走走停停,停停走走。
我只是想听听,他们在说什麽。

I asked him for the reason of his absolute focus, of what he would be so interested in..
he replied me saying nothing special
it'sthe small white cloud which floats pass the dry dead grassland
I am just listening to what they might be talking

with metta...happy Vesak day!

Vesak Day, being one of the most important days in the Buddhist calendar is celebrated world wide. It is marked with great ceremonial ritual, commemorates the birth and enlightenment of Buddha and his entry into Nirvana. Yet, even as this significant event is being celebrated by Buddhists throughout the world, we remember with deep sorrow those who have been devastated by recent natural disasters – the tropical cyclone Nargis in Myanmar and the earthquake in Sichuan, China. Let us help alleviate the plight of the suffering, perhaps with a simple act of donation or prayer, or even a kind word...

choices

I believe that we are solely responsible for our choices, despite any difficult situation we are in or and we have to accept the consequences of every deed, action, word and thought throughout our lifetime. ..quoted by Elisabethe Kubler-Ross

losing..

It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, we often value but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives. ..don't you think so?

bitchy bitchy me..

BITCHOLOGY

When I stand up for myself and my beliefs,

they call me a bitch.

When I stand up for those I love,

they call me a bitch.

When I speak my mind, think my own thoughts

or do things my own way,

they call me a bitch.

Being a bitch means

I won't compromise what's in my heart.

It means I live my life MY way.

It means I won't allow anyone to step on me.

When I refuse to tolerate injustice and speak against it,

I am defined as a bitch.

The same thing happens

when I take time for myself instead of being everyone's maid,

or when I act a little selfish.

It means I have the courage and strength to allow myself to be who I truly am

and won't become anyone else's idea of what they think I "should" be.

I am outspoken, opinionated and determined.

I want what I want and there is nothing wrong with that!

So try to stomp on me,

try to douse my inner flame,

try to squash every ounce of beauty I hold within me.

You won't succeed.

And if that makes me a bitch ,

so be it.

I embrace the title and am proud to bear it.

B = Beautiful

I = Individual

T = That

C = Can

H = Handle anything

ps: cant remember where i got this..

but oh ya..i m feeling bitchy..tats..right..bitchyyyyyyyyyy

am i dying?

4 Easy Ways to Die :

Take a Cigar daily - You will die 10 years early.
Drink alcohol daily - You will die 20 years early.
Work with X-ray related equipments daily - You will die 30 years early.
but.... Love Someone Truly - You will die daily.

what have they done ?

I wonder if there is presence of another “Adolf Hitler” in our golden land…?
Someone or that particular community whose believe is so extreme and whose thirst for power and control is so immense that he/they will sacrifice anything and do anything, not allowing any obstacles on the ladder to success and achievement of yet more authority and power. Perhaps he who is more vindictive than Hitler, manages to “employ” (or rather refuse to issue warnings) natural disaster to create a massacre. A massive loss of lives ranging from young, old or even monks. The ugly truth is slowly unveiling and with each precious moment, things are getting from bad to worse.

the video is curtesy of aungsayapyi

Prevention is said to be better than cure. But from the way things are at presence, there had been no prevention or will there be any cure in the near future. Even if aids are pouring in constantly to help the wounded Myanmar, the evil shield is still there to thwart such acts. I wonder when will there be “creator of miracle” to put a stop to these? People are talking and debating on the solution to solve this problem that is enlarging, working faster than a cancerous cell with each passing day. There have been discussions and reports of amounts of donations from various countries around the world but I wonder if they are the real solution to the root of the problem or was it acts to show that they too participate in such humanitarian activities? I wonder..

tat can only be Ferrari Enzo 340 !!!

WHAT HAPPENS TO THE DRIVER IF A FERRARI ENZO HITS A POLE
@ 290++ km/h????

The answer:
Nothing !!!

The man only had some bruising & nose bleeds (due to seat belt) that's all!!
Estimated Loss = 1.3 MILLION USD
Waiting list for a new Ferrari (same model) = 2 years +

The post accident condition of it >>>

The driver talking to the cop just after the accident !!!

Check the cockpit ....no visible damage !!!

The engine is at the back of the car so that the driver doesn't get crushed at high speeds...!!!
Yes that's the power of Ferrari ......!!!

happy..mother's day

Mother’s day fall on second Sunday of the month May.
I like the month May and I usually associate it with mothers. Coincidently, in Burmese, mothers are termed as “may may”. In fact the two red letter occasions that is associated with my mothers fall on this month. One is the day to celebrate and take gratitude of our mothers and another is her birthday..

I am sorry for all the anger, frustrations, unhappiness, misery, tears and pain I have caused you.. Even if you are the source of my headache at times, no matter what I still love you..
Coz you are one of the two people who will stand by me no matter what I do, what I say or how I treat you..

Ohh and I would like to say that for those friends whose mothers may not be around, I am sure they will know of your gratitude and remembrance regardless of where they might be…

bless the kind souls!

bless are those kind souls who have contributed..either through financial help or tangible things

Appeal to HELP Myanmar Cyclone Victims ~

In life..
all of us can’t be captains, some have to be crew.
all of us can’t be main leads, some have to play supporting roles.
all of us can't be leaders, some have to be followers.
all of us can't be bosses, some have to be subordinates.

Actually there is always something for all of us to do.

So

if you can’t be the highway, then be a great trail.
If you can’t be the sun, be a star.
If you can’t be the initiator, be a motivator.
If you can’t be the pivot factor, be the reliable factor.

It isn’t by size or sheer amount of quantity that you win or you fail.
The difference lies in just being the best at whatever you are.
Giving whatever you can afford to..

so let's do a part..coz a little help from us make a big impact on them!

can see more from him <<Mg Chan>>

so..Just a tiny weeny bits more to weekend..to friday..let's press on....

sometimes

Sometimes we must experience in order to learn
Sometimes we must learn in order to grow
Sometimes we must try in order to know
Sometimes we must fail in order to gain
Sometimes we must lose in order to value
Sometimes we must try in order to know
But the hardest lessons are learned through PAIN!!

Stress of my life~!

book is out..what's next? :P

really keeping my fingers cross, for the blue hard cover book and the approach of C-ceremony!!!

"om mani padme hum"

The AfterMath of CYCLONE NARGIS:

It came fast and left in a hurry as well, leaving behind a trail of thousands of dead, many homless, much destructions and waves of diseases. It took away not just the homes of the poors but the livelihood of them. The CYCLONE NARGIS has brought so much damage to the already half-battered and struggling Myanmar.
For those away in a foreign land, I am sure one can’t help but feel helpless even if there is a chance to donate either monetary or tangible things. Since such is the case, all we can do for now is to pray and hope for more help to assist these victims.
