I learned sumtin on humbleness a few days back..n it kinda hit me hard..
k imagine ur great at sumtin,much better than many other n then a younger,less experienced person comes n corrects u at that specific thing...points out ur mistakes n tell u what to do..wudnt u feel offended..that this junior is challeging ur supremecy..
Well it happen to me n to be brutally honest i felt like saying ' ur not as gud as me,u have no rite to say tat'...i noe its very arrogantly sed but tats how i felt at that moment.I am better than tat person(her) n tats a fact but....she was rite....i did make mistakes,mostly stupid mistakes n she spotted it.
When ur at tat situation,u have to view ur options...1.listen to my pride,ask her to bug off n be hated by her or 2.be humble,accept her correction n be wise..I read once in the bible,in proverb, tat if wise person listens to correction may it be from the young or old but a stupid person never admits he's wrong..
Im glad i chose the high road..its so hard to admit tat ur wrong but i did..i realise tat being humble wud be better option..i rather be humble get it right than to be arrogant n get it wrong..i realised tat jus coz ur older doesnt owes mean ur much superior..i realised the only way to improve is to accept the correction..learnin is a never ending process,u cant master sumthing..there is owes room for improvement
If u think about it,it wud be embarassing to have sumone much younger than u teach u sumting tat u think ur quite gud in..but it takes humbleness to do it,it takes humbleness to accept correction especially from sum1 hu is younger
At the end of it,i feel more or else proud of myself...i followed one of the fruits of the spirit...love,joy,peace,patience,longsuffering,...humbleness?..ok i cant remember all of it so sue me..=) FIN

No bravery

it has the video..images the u.s. army doesnt want u to c
James Blunt - No Bravery

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
Tears drying on their face.
He has been here.
Brothers lie in shallow graves.
Fathers lost without a trace.
A nation blind to their disgrace,
Since he's been here.
And I see no bravery, No bravery in your eyes anymore.Only sadness.
Houses burnt beyond repair.

The smell of death is in the air.
A woman weeping in despair says,
He has been here.
Tracer lighting up the sky.
It's another families' turn to die.
A child afraid to even cry out says,
He has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.Only sadness.
There are children standing here,

Arms outstretched into the sky,
But no one asks the question why,
He has been here.
Old men kneel and accept their fate.
Wives and daughters cut and raped.
A generation drenched in hate.
Yes, he has been here.
And I see no bravery,No bravery in your eyes anymore.Only sadness
.
Sometimes i feel my life is becoming abit to hectic..i noe im oni 16,wad is there to complain about n ppl owes tell me i sleep alot n frequently look blur but tats coz im exhausted.I put my time n effort in too many things,too many commitments

Lets c y im sayin this(my priorities):
  • My God..i love God n my faith in him,reading the bible,praying,my youth n all the activities my youth has,serving the church
  • Studies..exams,homework,midyear exam in may haizz
  • drumming..drum classes,playing for church,youth band,teaching drums(2 ppl)
  • drama team..constant practices,competition in may
  • scout..scout training,marching,marching competition in may,camp(end of april)
  • tuition..no not me takin tuition but me givin tuition,kinda need the extra income
  • leisure..time to hang with friends,mamak,futsal,hang kai
  • school..basicly in skul half of the time

so basicly its kinda packed,n coz marchin n drama competitions are in two weeks time,i have intensive pratices.U noe my guess is once u get gud in things u need to put ur commitment in it,its the oni way tat thing is gonna succeed.But the prob occurs is when u put ur commitment into too many things.N the prob gets bigger is when u need to choose between one commitment n another.Its not easy to set ur priorities yet its important

Goppi n sathya(two prefects) actually asked me to be one of em..i did seriously consider it,a prefectianol testimonial n certificate is very valueable but it was a no for me..no time n it wudn't be `me'..

I strive for hols,days i can sleep without any disturbance.Just cant wait for after my mid year exams to finish..by then my marching competition,drama competition n scout camp wud have ended n skul hols(church camp!) wud have started..

jus realise i dun reli have a conclusion for this..well i guess need to pick which is most important n which i want to excel in ..FIN

As another day passes another memory passes along too.Good or bad memories..things v want to remember or dont..but its really up to us to create the memories v want....
Ive got friends that has done amazing things in their lives..well some even foolish or just plain dumb stuff.Friends my age hu have done "it" more times than u wud imagine,Friends hu are makin it big time..livin up the life of a rocker..
Each of em created those memories,either by hard work n determination or by stumblin over 200 rabbit's foot n horse shoes..jus plain luck.Even my friends hu smoke,hu r planin to smoke,drink n waste all their money on leisure n pleasure..they create their own memories,good or bad
I realise that ppl dun like to remember their bad memories..think about it..can u think of 5 really bad memories,im sure 5 reli gud memories will pop up instead of bad.Its not suprising,y wud u want to remember the bad..ppl dun like to remember falling,being cheated out or scolded at..its the gud times v cherish n smile when v think about it.
I looked back at my own life n theres alot of stuff tat i would certainly love to remember when i grow older.For example Liverpool lifting the champions league crown for the fifth time.Ppl may say im over paranoid n obsessed bout this stuff but to c the team i support celebrate tat victory with such joy n satisfaction tat not many reli understand,it brought a tear from my eye,goosebumps stickin out like crazy...tats certainly a memory i want to bring to my grave...
Or like when i took my pmr n upsr results,gud memories..memories tat i created..times tat im able to feel proud..its definitely great to c shocked faces,hu wud imagine i wud get those results..not even me..Glory to God!
Well the best memories are ur first crush,1st love,1st break up,1st night(hehe) =P n so on..ive experience a couple of the above n its stuff i want to remember,the times ur heart wud pump like crazy jus when u c tat person,times when ur totally lost of words(kepala sudah blank!) when ur in a convo..its totally exillerating
Its up to u to create those memories..i cant wait for wad the future holds..hopefully great memories
