Shift…Shifting…Shifted…

Wednesday, February 22nd, 2006

Hey guys…I’ve shifted my house…not staying in 97, Straits View anymore…A bit sad actually cos i’ve stayed in this house for almost 10 years since i was standard 5…This house bore many of my memories since i underwent part of my childhood and teenage years at this "not-so-attractive" bangalow house.

First of all, let me give some briefing on this house of mine for almost 10 years…it is a government quarters and as my dad is a government officer, he was given this house while he got the transfer to JB.thought it’s free???no…nothing is free in this world and he gotta pay rent too…it is situated at jalan straits view…No "taman" around here cos all the houses jus lay along by the roadside…i’ve been through a hard time explaining to my friends how to get to my house as they will surely ask me "ur house not in a taman one meh?"..ya there’s no taman around here and just one jalan.it has 5 "sub-jalan" but my house is situated by the main road…hmmmm….It gives a great view of the selat tebrau from my house…so it’s consider as having good feng-shui cos it’s back by a mountain and facing the sea…maybe it’s because of this,my family members are all "hao ming"(leading a good life in chinese)..and guess what?it has many fruit trees around…3 rambutan,2 mango and 1 kuini…oh ya not forgetting there are 3 coconut trees also which never fruit…but the other trees are damn "obedient"..they fruit every year especially for the rambutan tree…when 3 trees fruit together, we could really get whole lot of rambutans which then my dad would start to give some of them to our neighbours..haha…the rambutans were so big and juicy until many of my friends like it and they had planned to have a rambutan party at my hosue but every time it’s not succesful..now then no more chance d…next time i buy for u all lah..but it would not be that fresh because at my hosue u can eat as u pluck them or pluck as u eat the rambutan..great right?…

And…….as i am the only daughter in this family, i get to have my own room and guess what there’s where many of my friends had stayed overnight for countless activities…i still remembered the first time was for the discussion of debate competition..haha…let me see…there were chia chee, chui wei, vicky, mei may and ah hoon.. that was the first time…cos my dad won let me stay overnight at other friends house so they came to my house…havoc…but fun and nice..really nice…then after the first stay overnight, there are 2nd and 3rd time and etc..now becoming countless as i don even remember who came to my house b4…but really thanks to them cos they ‘ve come over because of me and all those activities had really brighten up my life…

my house was also the place where we gather to make birthday presents for our friends..remember f4??han, sing and leek mei??stayed untill so late just to make a jigsaw puzzle or other things…wat else??

yeah….about 20 of seta girls came to stay at my house for the preparation of xuan gu..haha…still remembered that my bro had to send us to school and he gotta make two trips…thanks ya san ge…

and i can still remember that during my 16th birthday, a group of my friends baked a cake and sent the cake over to my hosue personally..was so touched at that time and they made for me a present named "chia huan city"..thanks to sing, han, leek mei and sheena…i still remembered it was a fruit cake but in the shape of a chiffon cake…

wat else happened in my house??hey friends out there…can u all remember?if yes then pls just drop by a msg or comment…cos i wanna write down all those activities that happened in this house..because they are all the most precious memory…

What is happiness?

Thursday, February 9th, 2006

Read from an article arguing about what is happiness…..and got a conclusion that happiness is relative…happiness is relative…understand?i think it means that a person is happy when his situation is compared with another person.
So, let me quote an example, when a person has a pair of new shoes, he is luckier and happier than those who have old shoes, and those who have old shoes are luckier and happier than those who don have shoes, and those who don have shoes are happier than those who are crippled and don have feet, and those who don have feet are happier than those who are paralysed, those who are paralysed are luckier and happier than those who are dead because they are alive…so in conclusion, everybody in this world is happy and lucky…

right?

Ups and Downs…

Sunday, February 5th, 2006

Guess everybody has their own ups and downs in life.It’s just that they differ by how "up" is the "up" and How "down" is the "down" or even how long is each of the up or down.

These few days in my life was indeed the most depressed part in my life.I guess that’s what in my mind.To think of it.Just to review what’s in my mind lately…hmmm..full of hatred towards life, towards everyone and everything i guess…I hated myself for being the youngest!!Donno any youngest child of the family have the same opinion with me…Let me say a word or two to justify my feeling.

ok..u see…As my parents grow older, their children grow bigger!!!fei hua!!(fei hua=nonsense)and i have 3 elder brothers and of course they are older than me and has their own life already.As my two elder brothers have got married, they have their own home and don’t live with my parents.My third brother is furthering his studies in KL but seldom comes back because " busy"..SO>>>me as the not so busy one spend the most time with my parents…Who asked me to be so "lucky" to choose such a time to be at home…U know….??ppl grow older and have "longer stamina"…they have more and more free energy to fight and more time to pick on each other…trust me.. it’s not a good thing when they just ask u something for ur opinion.IT’S NOT A GOOD THING…i cant think of any concrete example now but trust me, their question may be a killing question as what u answer may be wrong for each side….like…:
Pa would say "this this this do this is good!!should do this way!!!"
(at this time, pa was already raising his voice and shouted in a reddish face..u know u should shut up now)
then ma would say " how can???do like that like that like that sure better!!"
then ma would ask " chia huan right or not?u agree with me right?…."

ok..so what should i do?
U think I should keep quiet to avoid dispute right??
hahaha…u’re WRONG…if i keep quiet…then..something like this would come..
" already an adult still donno how to give good opinion ar?"
" so big already…must know how to diffferentiate between right and wrong ma…..!!"
"…"

erm….ahha..suddenly i thought of something..by the way, I’m shifting house.shifting to somewhere near sutera utama. and don think that it’s good that i get to shift house. it’s a disaster for me..anyway, they just quarreled and one day i was asked by mum to send some stuffs over to the new house and my dad was over there in the new house. when i got there, i greeted ..
"pa, we’re here to shift the stuffs into the new house!"
suddenly, the sky became covered by dark clouds and thunder storm begun…
(in loud loud voice as loud as the thunder)
"WHO ASKED U TO JIA LI HAI SHIFT THE THINGS HERE?GO BRING ALL THE THINGS BACK BRING ALL THE THINGS BACK!!"(by the way, jia li hai means acting to be clever)erm..that’s not what all my dad scolded..there were more but not good to type it out here…it’s not so simple…
i was so shocked then…i bursted out in tears coz i felt so innocent and helpless being in between them. one asked me to shift the things and another aasked me to bring the things back. both are my parents..so wat should i do?? anyway, i did nothing… i cried and cried and cried and asked my 2nd bro to come over to solve things…lazy to elaborate…and maybe things has passed and it seems i don remember the details much now..hehe…

guess everything has passed and things are getting well now…i feel that i’m quite childish after these few days as for these few days i felt so lonely, sad and helpless everytime my brothers are not around.guess i really haven grow up and can’t handle all these situations. Once, i blamed my brother for not acompanying me all the time and scolded him..he just told me " huan, u should solve this thing like an adult.let pa and ma cool down first and thrust them.then things will slowly turn well.."…guess it’s time for me to learn to be an adult ba…i’ve been very emotional lately…or maybe because it’s my parents, and i was alone that’s y i was so easily emotionally affected…
now that everything has passed, i really have to learn from all this.to be more matured, to be able to control my emotions better, and to deal with problematic situations better…hehe…

Actually, before this, i was really so scared. i kept asking myself,what if something happen to my parents?what should i do?i guess i could no longer smile or laugh as heartily as ever…no more…
but now that everything has passed and allt he problems are gone.. there is no more hatred, no more problem and no more depress….
I am the happy chia huan again…!!

Miscellaneous

When a couple finally walk into the church and vow to become husband and wife, what happens to their fate? Will the fate increase or decrease? If the fate is following the steps of increasing then it should something to be happy about..but what if the fate is decremental?What would happen to this couple? Then,the world would be added wit another case of tragedy…

Sometimes, problems occur in life and i think that these spices really make life more interesting and more memorable. To think of it, it would make one feel better if we think this way or else i think everyone would go insane facing all the stress and problems. It’s not a matter of like or dislike to have to face this kind of problems.Since u’re so lucky to be picked by God then u should face it.Someone asked me before "how come u like all the sweetness and bitterness of life so much?" This question was dedicated to me in a mini "campfire" recently.Just wanna tell this friend, no matter how life is or what bitter experience we get it’s not in the individual hands, it’s unavoidable…Maybe it’s frustrating at first but life still goes on and the earth won stop rotating just because one person feels sad or down.maybe the person who is down wished that the world would moarn with him or her but in reality, the world just won…Pathetic….So what one can do is just face the world which is full of uncertainty with a big heart, accept whatever oncoming problems and overcome each and everyone of them…that’s the real spirit of being invincible!!

God’s Gift…

Wednesday, February 1st, 2006

People always say that whatever difficulties we faced are God’s gift. They are given by God in order to train us to be more independent and more tolerant to the hardness of life. but sometimes, God is just too generous with his gifts.He gave too much of his gift to some ppl.So, should this Man be grateful towards God for giving Him so much gift and gave him an opportunity to train His endurance.But now, this Man gets tired,tired of receiving all God’s gifts, tired of too much training, just plain tired..yup and helpless too…
