A Day in August

Today I woke up quite early because I was awaken by the vibration of my mobile, a call from a familiar number blinking on the screen. My vision at that moment was quite blurry, you know when you struggle to open-up your eyes after hours of a deep night sleep. The eyelids felt like being UHUed together. Well, it's a friend called to ask me when am I'll be going back to Shah Alam. What a question "early" in the morning huh...

Mum called, I jumped out of bed. She sat down at the end of my bed and I told her the story about "something" which is kind of interesting to be shared with her. We had a brief chit-chat before I entered the shower..

We went to the town to pay some bills and instalments..bills..bills..bills..

Around 12+ noon, we went back home and we prepared the lunch, before daddy and Effy came back for lunch, as usual... It's the energy charger after a long half-day of working for hired people...

We had a simplest menu:

1) pumpkin soup with baby corn

2) chicken nuggets

3) grilled tuna fish + chili & soy sauce

4) century eggs (the black coloured egg)

Isn't it simple? Yet it is appetizing! Sometimes we need to sit and enjoy these typical and traditional dishes. Once in a blue moon is quite alright.

Thank God my dad is SO not a fussy man about food. There you go, what an easy life for my mum and what a lucky wife she is, a coolest husband & dad! You go daddy!

~~~@@@@@@~~~ Love both of you so much! ~~~@@@@@@~~~~

Mmmm..in the evening, nothing much, watched Olympic with Effy+mum+dad. Lepak outside with cousin & had puffs of ciggy. Ohya, my other cousin called me from Shah Alam, he told me where today is the first time in his life, he saw a LIVE incident somewhere near Sunway Pyramid's McD, 2 Chinese guys' laptops were snatched away by 2 bonk-er motorcyclist guys! Well things could happen anytime, anywhere. BE MORE VIGILANT GUYS!

Gosh! It's 12.45a.m. Guess I better roll myslef on the bed now... Effy is snorring melodiously. Must be enjoying his mesmerizing moment of dreams..nite-nite!

CUBA was defeated...

U.S TEAM moment of reaching the GOLD!!!

Today, U.S. women volleyball team has defeated my favourite group, CUBA (3-time olympic gold medal winner) in three straight sets. The U.S. team will play the winner of Thursday night's BRAZIL vs CHINA semifinal for the Olympic title on this coming Saturday for gold.

Well, at the very beginning of the match, I was really disappointed with CUBAN players because of their inconsistency in attacking and receiving the ball, till the end of the match. What a very deep frustration portrays on the coach's face and the players broke into mourning tears. The coach would never aspected that his team would dive into that kind of horrific loss. As he always said that his team is THE team!

Nevertheless, they play the loser of the match and got only bronze for this time... picture (--->) shows their moment of victory during the preliminary round against U.S., 3-0. It's such an irony...

WHY?

Sometimes whatever things or dreams that we want to be flicked into reality, we could get it just with a snap of fingers, yet sometimes it's as hard as punching a wall, hoping to blast a huge hole out of it and yet hurting ourselves. Well, common people like us will say that, "there's a wisdom behind every agenda."

Yeah, this evening I was wondering why certain people who has the qualification and a little experience, I should say, in anything might not get the brightest chance to get a job that he or she been dreaming of, though the requirement is met? And why those who has less experience and lower qualification could get the post? I'm confused! Should I say, LUCK plays an important role too? Well, I do believe that's faith from GOD, right?

But, let's not take that BIG BLACK DOT as a full-stop in the writing of our wonderland story lives. Human beings should see far enough to capture the real pictures of future lives that need to be fixed and hanged on the great wall of destiny.

I was tired of hunting for jobs for the past 6 months! Thank God, family and friends are still standing steadily blowing winds of hope and courage to my thin little ears... I'm counting the days to reach August 25th...
