Indiaaa

So I was in India over last week, and I now miss it. Walking on the streets, getting my mango shake, letting time go by.

Mostly because I'd rather be doing that than sitting in front of a computer at work. :D

So the people of India.

There are so many different kinds of people. The educated, the uneducated. The one with basic manners and the one with none.

I noticed that in general, the older generation of people did not have basic manners. Things like spitting, littering and peeing by the side of the streets was a very common site.

Also, saying 'Thank You' was uncommon for people.

The drivers, omg, I thought KL was bad, but India is a whole different level. People drive whether or not there's a road. It doesn't matter which direction the car's coming from, they just drive.

There is no patience on the road, honking all the time. (by the way, it's deafenning when it's a buss honking!)

But some how or the other, with everybody driving in EVERY possible direction. It's amazing that I came out alive and for that, I'm very grateful.

Since I'm Tamil my self, I blended it quite well with the Indians. Except that I didn't spit or pee by the road! haha

The women

hmm,

As much as they're fighting for women's rights, there are certain people who are still submissive, give in to their parents wiches, as ridiculous as they may be.

It was really sad to see so many young girls with bountiful potential, having to get married and stay at home, become a mom instead of actually contibuting to the economy.

The women tend to give their parents opinions very high posts. Unfortunately they're not realising the fact that their parents era and the current era are now too vast and hence they cannot keep listening to their parents in all issues.

They have to take a stand and make their own decision. Even for simple things like getting a part time job to sustain themselves whilst looking for a permanent job.

The women are also unable to buy beer/liquour. VERY UNFAIR.

But i must say, compared to ten years back and now, the women are slowly coming out of their shells, and their efforts are very much commendable.

The men,

ahahah, a man without a moustache was a rare sight.

The are highly egoistic and not gentlemanly at all! They make the women travel great distances with the kids in busses, this, as easy as it may sound is not so easy when you have whiny fidgety kids.

Always being in control in the home, getting the upperhand in situations. But I think this would slowly submissive once the women get more education and awareness on how they should be treated. (can't wait! :D)

I'd like to continue, but I have to go now! Bye!

I am not myself - 2

I keep on thinking and asking myself. I am standing with longing to see you. Though I stand in rain, though my inner true self drench, I am standing and longing here in thirst. My heart searching me within me. My eyes are longing to see you. (This whole stanza repeats 2 times) (Music.......) When I keep on seeing Mother's love, I feel like a baby. But I am not the baby who searched me within me. I feel like a youth who touched peak of mountain. But I am not the youth who searched me within me. While keep on thinking about this, I am asking myself, I am standing with longing to see you. Though I stand in rain, though my inner true self drench, I am standing and longing here in thirst. My heart searching me within me. My eyes are longing to see you. (Music....) While listening to the voice of cuckoo, I feel like a fan. But I am not the fan who searched me within me. As I am earning gold and stuffs, I feel pride inside. But I am the one who searched....... I am not myself. I keep on thinking and asking myself. I am standing with longing to see you. Even when I stand in rain, even when my inner true self drench, I am melting in ur love❤️ My heart saw me in you. My heart stayed within you🥰 I keep on thinking and asking myself. I am carrying you within my heart. Even when I stand in rain, even when my inner true self drench, I am melting in ur love❤️ (Music......) I am not me - 5

my life now

it's been a rough three months since I wrote anything here!

and i've become so different! all over again!

it amazes me how i'm constantly changing, my feelings, my tastes, my opinions...

i really am unsure it that's good or bad!

well right now,

i like the fact that work is getting very interesting and fulfilling! so i'm happy there, tho i strongly feel that there is no gender equality, so that bothers me...

in addition, i've been taken on full board to join MNO Solutions I am actually the managing director, and life has not been easy !

I cannot believe i almost cried when i found out that we were losing 3 students!

But then from that experience i learnt that, you've gotta accept it, move on and look for new grass.

Working on that now, and feel a lot better too!

Also,
i've started hanging out by myself a lot more now, and it's not as daunting as it seems! I'm actually liking it! just that sometimes i have nothing to talk to my self about! hahahJust kidding!

But yeahhh it's fun, i've met a lot of people! it's been great! not easy, but great!

the best part is, you can do whatever you want whenever!

so i really like that...
also,

i think i've become more fit! i can do yoga, well atleast bend backward!

and it really is a great achievement for me, and it makes me supremely happy!

and i've come to terms that right now, i can't afford a holiday or any form of travel (time & money) but it really is fine,

i'm giving my self time till my sister comes back from UK, then i'm totally packing my bags and running away! can't wait...

oh,
and i love all the people i'm surrounded by,

my friends, they're just awesome, i am truly blessed ot have such friends
and family too! ever since my bro n sis have left the house, i've become closer with mum n dad,

i like that too...

only thing i need ot work on right now is my sense of tactfulness... if that's even a word!

i have to learn to say no in a way that people don't even know they're being said no to!
muahahahahha

kay byeeee

Running Away

Today morning, oh wait, afternoon, after I woke up, I went downstairs to read the news paper.

Boy was that the biggest mistake for the day!

I read news about a lot of despair, corruption, disasters, religious extremists, Malaysia's stupid political parties etc.

The only good thing that brought a smile to my face was a recap on Julia Gillard's journey to becoming Prime MInister and the match of the day! England Vs. Germany!

So whilst I was reading all that ngativity, I was already in my head thinking of a backup plan. Thinking of which other coutry could I buy property and perhaps settle there.

But then, isn't that just being cowardice and running away?

So now I have to do something, something to fix our corrupted country.

Just need to start working on a strategy.

Your Life story

This one, I would like to dedicate for a very special friend of mine. I actually got it from Robin Sharma's book "Who Will Cry When You Die".

My Friend;
Well, I've aways had a soft spot for her, right from the first day I met her.

So here's to you my Dear dear Friend.

One of the most wonderful things about time is the fact that you cannot waste it in advance. No matter how much time you have squandered in the past, the next hour that comes your way will be perfect, unspoiled and ready for YOU to make the very best of it. No Matter what has happened to you in the past, your future is spotless. Realise that every dawn brings with it the corresponding opportunity to begin a completely new life. If you so chose, tomorrow can be the day that you start getting up earlier, reading more, exercising, eating well and worrying less and even being happier (this I have added on my own). As author Ashleigh Brilliant has observed, "at any moment I could start being more of the person I dream to be- but which moment should I chose?"

No one is stopping you from opening your journal and on a blank page, rewriting the story of your life. This very minute, you can decide the way you would like to unfold, change the central characters and create a new ending. The only question is will YOU chose to do so?

Remember, it is never too late to become the person you have always wanted to be.

I hope this helps you, in wanting to start over. What ever you want to be, I'm right here.

Good Luck to you!
Pinkdot!

What person in the right mind can accept suck a gift, knowing that there are people in their country not getting the best out of life.

Not getting the proper education.

Elderly being abandoned with no where to go but the streets, begging for a living.

Communities being left out while th rest of the country develops.

Infrastructure that does not lead to enough growth of the economy.

Public transport that can be made better.

To me,
anybody who accepts such an expensive gift (while knowing the above) is just selfish.

And i'm sure he can't not know the above considering that he is the king!

I'm just so disgusted.

Not to mention that it's all taxpayers money.

Sigh.

And now, reading this makes me more sick.

What a way to start the morning.

I just need to do something. I feel stupid for not being able to stop the ridiculousness.

So if ure reading this and feel the same way to, please contact me, and I'll be more than willing to contribute my help.

Time

Time,
Don't we waste it?

Time is so precious, once it's gone, you definetly can't get it back.
Today, I wasted it, when I got stuck in the rain, after lunching with the Hoe. I was stuck at the LRT. It was pouring heavily, so I couldn't walk to my office. The moment I knew it, I thought, why not I take the LRT go to KLCC, post my letters and come back (cos I wouldn't get wet there and back)
But of course, being cautious, I thought, what if the rain suddenly stopped while I was on the way to KLCC, (the Hoe suggested suddenly taking the train back to my office =.=).

Hence I decided against going there and stood at the Dang Wangi LRT foyer, giving directions to lost tourists :D

By the time the rain stopped, I knew, that I could have just taken the train to KLCC and back. If only I didn't doubt my thought.

I have realised, that when a thought occurs to you, you should just do it. Cos when you stop to think about it, you're just wasting time.
I didn't waste all the time there in the LRT, I gotta to smell the rain, see the rain fall and of course; help tourists!

So I guess it wasn't so bad. But still I could have made better use of it. Oh well, it's gone, there's no point dwelling in the past.

Cheers,
Pinkdot

Ps: I'd like to dedicate this to my fliend Padmini, a person I can talk just about anything and get an honest feed back. you have definitely been a great fliend minii!
Heart you!
Why I'm being nice to her you ask?
Hehe, she made me this beautiful piece of art, and it was very thoughtful of her (although I think she had too much time =D)
