Poof with it goes for David Copperfield's World of Wonders!

With the approach of November, I was sadden by the fact that the American Magician, David Copperfield has cancelled or rather (quoted from his management stated in an e-mail to organisers) ""postponed indefinitely" his South-East Asia shows following sex allegations for his misconduct in the United States. The master illusionist scrapped a series of engagements in Southeast Asia as the FBI investigates allegations he sexually assaulted an unidentified Seattle woman. While Copperfield has yet to publicly address the investigation, his manager, Chesnoff has denied any wrongdoing by his client. Copperfield's accuser claimed the sexual misconduct occurred in July in the Bahamas, but she didn't file her complaint until she returned to the States, prompting the FBI to investigate.The bureau's Seattle office has declined to comment on the specifics of the case.

Well, whatever it is, such a pity it is to not being able to catch him in action.

I was about to buy the highly in demand tickets but perhaps by sheer luck, the news on his shows being cancelled were announced. I hope that someday at sometime I could still catch it with the one I plan to do so..hopefully..crossing fingers!

so-des-ne

It was only today that I came to a realization: there are already more than 100 posts I have written on my blog. I believe that most of the blogging sites which I usually like to visit would mention with somewhat pride that they have reached the 100-post quota. To me, I started blogging not by chance but by choice. It was finally produced after a long consideration and several trial testing. But whatever it is, I am glad that I did it and simply love both the title and name of it. The origin of the name would be from the frequently used phase of mine which is “di lo bae”. Dilbae in fact in Burglish (Burmese words spelt out in English, which is similar to han yu pin yin of simplified Chinese) is the answer to the usual common question “how are you” or “how is life” or “how have you been”. That is to say “all things have been same as before” or to simply put in Singlish “like that lor”..

Well, being such me, a lover for cutie sweetie things, I made some modifications to the “dilobae” and came up with this “dilobear”. Not only can it refer to as the burglish word but also the name of the bear which is “dilo”. So this is how it came about..

Really grateful to those who came to visit this site often with or without having leave me comments. I hope to post more useful and enriching articles in future! So let’s grow together..no matter where you may be, regardless of age, language, nationality…

three treasures!

HOPE, TRUST, CONFIDENCE


CONFIDENCE:

1 Day all villagers decided to pray for rain.On the day of prayer all people gathered & only one boy come with umbrella.
THATS CONFIDENCE.

TRUST:

Trust should be like feeling of a 1 year old baby,
when you throw him in tha air, he laughs....Because he know you will catch him...


HOPE:

Every night we go to bed,
have no assurance to get up alive in the next morning But still we have many plans for coming day...

KEEP CONFIDENCE, TRUST IN YOURSELF AND NEVER LOSE HOPE...

for those with these three treasures are richer than anyone i can ever think of..

dun u agree?

t-shirts statements..for WOMEN!

dilobear's lesson 2

i've learnt that ...

with time as healing tools, no matter what, people will forget what you have said, they will forget what you did, but they will never forget how you made them feel...

so don't do things which you will regret,

don't wait till everything is beyond hope or there is no more chance of any salvation to it!

Something to take note

A Butterfly's Lesson

The story of "A Butterfly’s Lesson" was sent to me by a fren in the powerpoint format. In my understanding, the message it seemed to convey is very simple:

there is a time for everything! so take it slow..for somethings are meant to happen at that particular time..no use rushing and puffing this up!

~ A Butterfly’s Lesson ~

”One day, a small opening appeared in a cocoon; a man sat and watched for the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to force its body through that little hole.
Then, it seems to stop making any progress.

It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and it could not go any further.
So the man decided to help the butterfly: he took a pair of scissors and opened the cocoon.
The butterfly then emerged easily.

But it had a withered body, it was tiny and shriveled wings.
The man continued to watch because he expected that, at any moment, the wings would open, enlarge and expand, to be able to support the butterfly’s body, and become firm.
Neither happened!

In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling around with a withered body and shriveled wings. It never was able to fly.
What the man, in his kindness and his goodwill did not understand was that the restricting cocoon and the struggle required for the butterfly to get through the tiny opening, were God’s way of forcing fluid from the body of the butterfly into its wings, so that it would be ready for flight once it achieved its freedom from the cocoon.
Sometimes, struggles are exactly what we need in our life.

If God allowed us to go through our life without any obstacles, it would cripple us. We would not be as strong as we could have been. Never been able to fly.
I asked for Strength...
and God gave me difficulties to make me strong.

I asked for Wisdom...
and God gave me problems to solve.

I asked for prosperity...
and God gave me a brain and brawn to work.
I asked for Courage…..
and God gave me obstacles to overcome.

I asked for Love...
and God gave me troubled people to help.
I asked for Favors...
And God gave me Opportunities.

“I received nothing I wanted...
But I received everything I needed."
Live life without fear, confront all obstacles and know that you can overcome them.

open vs close

Who said "Open" n "Close"

are words with opposite Meaning.
You will always be open to the person
who is close to you.

that's what I always believe!
to be truthful and frank with your closed ones..
no lies..nothing but the truth..so u no need spend time remembering all the lies.
lies even if they are "white lies" are still considered lies.anit it?

a late evening where i caught one of the sunsets from my 2 megapixels hp camera while rushing out in "ruby"!

nice eh..sure it is..aint it? :)

but i would prefer watching it in peace at the sea side..preferrably with ice cream and in nice company wor :P

oh well..dreams..and wishes..there would be a time to make them all come true!

me and ..my nemisis - ONE

Me and my nemisis (ONE)

Cute, cuddly, adorable and loyal are words commonly used to describe them.

soft, furry, sweet, part of the family are what they are usually associated with..

'

However, to put in laymen's term, they are simply known as “pets”!

But pet lovers simply refuse to use this term and instead choose to give more endearing and humane names.

so who are they?????????????

DOGS!!!!!

I must confess I really have nothing againsts them.REALLY. no prejudice, no grudge, eh eumm..no nope. nothing against these creatures!!!

But whatever it is, I do not want to have anything to do with them. Really nothing at all.

Not in the past, not now nor in the near future!

Coz these dogs are never my-cup-of-tea nor will they ever be on my-list-of-favourite-things!

I have such long histories with them that I can't help but stand a few feets apart whenever i catch sight of them. .I sincerely and deeply wish and hope that they too would leave me alone instead of playing this game of "the-more-i-try-get-away-the-more-i-got-chased-by-them"

Perhaps the solution for this abnormal phobia would be to get myself a young puppy the method of “以毒攻毒” (not sure if i got the words right but what i actually want to say here is to use poison agaisnt poison)..haha..aint i a smarties :P

Below is a forwarded mail from a fren.
I am not so sure about the reliability of the whole story but no harm reading it and take precaution against such things in future!

~

A 26-year old decided to have a cup of coffee.

He took a cup of water andput it in the microwave to heat it up

(something that he had done numerous times before).

I am not sure how long he set the timer for,

but he told mehe wanted to bring the water to a boil.

When the timer shut the oven off,

he removed the cup from the oven.

As he looked into the cup,

he noted thatthe water was not boiling,

but instantly the water in the cup "blew up" into his face.

The cup remained intact until he threw it out of his handbut all the water had flown out into his face due to the build up of energy.

His whole face is blistered and he has 1st and 2nd degree burns to his face

which may leave scarring.

He also may have lost partial sight in his left eye.

While at the hospital, the doctor who was attending to himstated that this is fairly common occurrence and water (alone) should never be heated in a microwave oven.

If water is heated in this manner, somethingshould be placed in the cup to diffuse the energy such as: a wooden stir stick, tea bag, etc.

It is however a much safer choice to boil the water ina kettle.

General Electric's response:Thanks for contacting us.

I will be happy to assist you.

The e-mail that you received is correct.

Microwaved water and other liquids do not alwaysbubble when they reach the boiling point. They can actually get superheated and not bubble at all.

The superheated liquid will bubble up out of the cupwhen it is moved or when something like a spoon or tea bag is put into it.

To prevent this from happening and causing injury,

do not heat any liquidfor more than two minutes per cup.

After heating, let the cup stand in the microwave for thirty seconds before moving it or adding anything into it.

i hate tuesday!!!!

bad bad days... all happens on

Tuesday!!!!!

argghhhhhhhh

understand..yes?no? or..

do not presume to understand what you think you understand when in fact what you think you understand is not what you thought you have understood it to be coz when you actually understand you would not have to think if you have understood for understanding comes with a knowing..

thats the mistake we always make...presume..assume..we'd never truly understand the way things are..the way things are meant to be..

perhaps.. because humans are simply too complex, too superficial minded creatures..don't u agree too? :P

they do make mistake too..:P

Incident happened on 17 Aug 07 at 1.30pm. ..
1) Carpark entrance/exit – idiotic car came out from here
2) Idiotic car should go this way.
3) But idiotic car went this direction and got stuck at the stairs for pedestrians.

FYI,

the driver is a …………….

……… MAN.
(about middle age)

Moral of the story:
Don’t always blame female drivers.
Male drivers ain’t any better. Hahahahaha….

Health is Wealth

I guess its so true that $ makes the world go round!
woah..what a saying..but i guess, I rather don't have such financial wealth.. such shallow superficial things..
to me..being healthy..being rich in friendship, kinship and relationship is much more meaningful and much more wealthy than any other things in the world!

one must be healthy physically in order to give one's best performance.

one must be in healthy mentally that is a healthy state of mind to think logically and systemetically especially where work is concerned.

Thus even if it is such a cliche`, how true it is - - being healthy is indeed having accumulated such aubndance of wealth!

pin a Red Ribbon!

"...tie a yellow ribbon around the old oak tree.."

this "Yellow ribbon" song was sung in early 70s or so, in support of jail birds ( i believe i am being such a prejudice against them by linking them with such a term! ts tsk..so bad of me) or rather in a more humane term would be to refer these people as whom had one reason or another ended up having stayed in prison for a period of time.

how about the baby Pinki ribbon? those are to represent the brave women who had won the battle against Breast Cancer! to women, breasts are vital part of their body. because two humps protruding out of their bodies are not just for physical health purposes but also representing their womenhood. without them, one can't help but feel less of a "female". however due to circumstances, which i believe is in most cases, the breasts have to cut off to prevent any cancerous cell from spreading to other organs of the body. women have to fight agasint this ugly illness and also to term up with the fact that what they pride to have had been lost forever.

as for the RED Ribbon, the burmese especially in singapore are wearing them to show their support for those who dare to walk against, for those chaffrom robes, against the brutal, violent and over-possesive-for-power Theives in yangon! Subsquently, it is also to show that our hearts will beat as ONE no matter how far away we might be from our needy motherland!Cheers to those who dare to walk ..

wonder if u are wearing the red ribbon today ?!
