..it is not the size, bro.. it is the stamina.. you know what I mean.. the stamina! The question is not whether to be "big" or "small" in sizes at all. You have to free yourself from the tyranny of concentrating on growth for growth's sake. Stop thinking about size, and start thinking about health!
So, find time to runs, cycles or swims to sweat it out! And do not forget to eat lots and lots of green vege!

Tidur yang bukan..
Di kaunter penyambut tetamu sebuah hotel bajet 'tali kasut'..(shoe-string budget hotel le tuu..), seorang tetamu hotel yang kelihatan sugul menghampiri kaunter, 'saya nak check-out!' Eh! kalau ikut rekod daftar masuk, encik nak duduk tiga hari...apa masalah yang bolih kami bantu?' kata penyambut tetamu yang bertugas.
'Malam tadi saya tak dapat nak tidur lena sebab setiap 15 minit, saya dengar dinding hotel di ketuk sekuatnya olih orang dari bilik sebelah.' luah tetamu yang nampak sangat kecewanya. 'Ok, encik duduk dulu sementara saya proses urusan check-out ni.' Kata penyambut tetamu menenangkan keadaan.
Selang beberapa minit, muncul sepasang suami isteri menghampiri kaunter, juga untuk check-out. Penyambut tetamu yang sama bertanyakan masalahnya. Si isteri yang nampak lebih sugul dari suaminya berkata, 'Kami langsung tak dapat tidur malam tadi sebab setiap kali kami nak lena, kami di kejutkan dengan dengkuran kuat dari bilik sebelah. Ini yang membuatkan suami saya terpaksa ketuk dinding untuk senyapkan orang di bilik sebelah!' Sambil tersenyum sendirian penyambut tetamu mulai faham dengan situasi yang berlaku...
..mamak kasi saya, Tosey Bawang sama Teh Susu Lembu satu!..siaPPPP!!!

Wajah Wajah Masam
Jika apa yang kita lakukan itu buruk, hasilnya akan jadi buruk. Sebaliknya, jika apa yang kita lakukan itu cantik, hasilnya akan jadi cantik. Bagaimana kita bertindakbalas terhadap kehidupan seharian yang turun naik itu pasti membentuk keperibadian dan watak kita. Dengan kata lain, bagaimana kita bertindak menentukan siapa kita sebenarnya. 'Kata kerja' kita akhirnya menjadi 'kata sifat' kita. Jika hari hari kita bemuka masam menghadapi situasi 'sampah' atau manusia manusia 'sampah', takut pulak kalau kalau kita di tempiaskan dengan 'badi' yang sememangnya hendak di elakkan.
Perkara yang sama boleh di kaitkan dengan kepelbagaian urusan lain. Sebagai contoh, urusan perniagaan maupun tugasan. Jika kita menguruskan perniagaan atau kerja dalam keadaan terpaksa atau tertekan, kita pasti akan menjalankannya dalam keadaan wajah yang masam. Maka, percayalah hasilnya perniagaan kita, kerja kita juga akan berwajah muram, mundur dan akhirnya 'gulung tikar' (pilih tikar yang berkenaan: tikar getah , tikar mengkuang, tikar buluh, tikar padi dan lain lain tikar impot..) sebelum pun sempat melihat kemajuan atau mengecap kejayaan.
...musim hujan ni pekena KOPI SUSU PANAS dan ROTI KAYA BAKAR..sedap jugak!

Remember Where You Came From.
You're back home for a semester break after your first year at college. You've changed. Even what you wear daily are different from those worn by kampung folks. You're cool from the younger generation perceptions. Hip. Sophisticated. Uncle Teoh, who's known you since you were a baby, generously gives you a job right after your SPM. One day, he mention to your dad that your demeanour sometimes frightens the pets. Dad's not surprised. After all, you play Bob Marley songs till four a.m. You're not exactly a ray of sunshine. But dad's patient with you. Until one day,when dad's had enough. " The people in this kampung are your friends, the folks who were there for you when you were growing up.These are the people you could turn to, count on. Who teached, tutored, coached and cheered you.Don't think you're suddenly so much better than them just because you're in college. These people helped get you there". Dad then paused, take a deep breath and continue, "Don't forget the people who were with you from the start. Don't be such a big shot. Remember where you came from". A glass of lukewarm water will be OK before I go to bed. Happy sleeping...

Mistake is experience
In life,one must always taught himself or herself not to be afraid, to try anything, learn everything. One must experience everything in as many different areas as you can. There are many interesting things to try out. In particular, I like to cooks very much. After years of trying out new recipes,sometimes the results are OK and most of the times it was not.In the end, it was me who had to finish-off with with the dishes because it is not suitable to serve to the guest but then it taught me a tremendous sense of experimentation with food. Of course, one day, god willing, I want to be an excellent cook, just like Anthony Bourdain who travels the world over searching for secret recipes of the worlds. My advice to fellow friends out there who likes cooking very much, ''Never cook anything the same way twice; always experiment, always improve." One must always trying to influence what things do. That was just like cooking. One must try to create a certain result rather than just waiting to see what happens...a cup of LATTE and two pieces of CHEESECAKES will be OK while waiting for dinner.

DRIVE LESS OR DON'T DRIVE AT ALL.
Cars are multiplying faster than people. They are using up our economic strength. The manufacturers are doing little to control them. They are much more interested in producing and selling along with their all-time marketing strategy gimmicks to lure peoples in buying their brand.
Nobody owns a car not to travel,be it a short-distance journey or long trips. In Malaysia alone, cars are counting by the millions. Stastically, whether owners travels far and wide or send kids to schools in the neighbourhood,we had consummed millions litres of fuel, for that matter. The ecological effect are worsen. Millions litres of fuel burns resulting the emmision of billion kilos of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. And that just one days' worth.
For a kick start towards driving less or not to drive at all, we should try for an alternatives. Why not go for buses, trains, taxis, or car-pooling. And for the fitness buff, cycling and walking can be an enjoyment routine to the offices or workplace. The alternative travelling choices can be done once or twice a week for a start. Even that maybe tough but it is worth the effort. It is a matter of adapting to the mode of travelling situation that we are unfamiliarise with.
I believe destructive emmision would be cut commensurately. Build the passion within us to kick out carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere.
Remember that EARTH needs our loves and cares,too :)
Last but not least, do allow me to enjoy my RICE NOODLE WITH CHOP SUEY and a cuppa of FRAGRANT TUO CHA.
BUON,APPETITO!
