I Am Proud To Conquer [Thanks Yatim!]

This is specially dedicated to Yatim Zainal, my dearest mountain guide. Without you, I won't stand on the summit 4095.2m of Mount Kinabalu.
The mount summit that I have conquered with Yatim. 
Sea of clouds.
Sunrise on the summit. The Low's Peak.
Misty. Mobility Go Go Go!

Hold Your Thoughts | He Is The Best One

I have been offered to be fetched back to my residential college by my lecturer. 

He, Dr. Abdul Salam bin Haji Yussof is the most friendly lecturer that I can find in UKM who teaches U1 (TITAS and Hubungan Etnic) courses. I have represented my group to present our title "Future Shock", which I only prepared 7 slides, while Dr. Salam requested for 10 slides (at least). However, I did the slides mostly with photos and I presented what we wanted to share with and amongst the students in his lecture. 

It was a great experience for me to talk in front; to elaborate the ideas only with the photos in my slides. I felt great as this is the very first time I did my slides with photos; elaborated with photos; and much more. He inspired me to do better each and every time I was in his class. 

After the class dismissed, he had a little talk and he thanked my for giving such informative presentation. Then, while he was walking towards his car, I was collecting and sighting for any recyclables around the Pusanika and the alley beneath PTSL. It was 7.30pm, and it was dark. After that, he honked me, and he asked me where I reside; he insisted and wanted to send me back. I was touched when he offered me that. 

[Lessons learned]
1. Never underestimate yourself. You can do better from time to time. 
2. Be kind to others so that we could get the same in return. 
3. A good lecturer motivates you. A bad one deforms you.
4. A good lecturer can bring us towards the bright path, and filled us with so much energy to speed up and accelerate.

Credits to Dr. Salam. Credits to my fellow group members. [I hope I can get my video where Dr. Salam has filmed during his TITAS presentation]

Yes! He is, the only one lecturer in UKM whom I seen, filmed his students during their presentations.

Nice Is Different Than Good

It's hard to find sin in the suburbs. Just look behind the closed doors, that's where you will find neighbors cheating on their taxes; and drinking too much Vodka; and stealing their father's magazines. Yes, the suburbs are filled with sinners, some of whom occasionally repent.
It's hard to find sin in the suburbs. Just look behind the closed doors, and you will find your neighbors cheating on their husbands; resenting their children; plotting against their friend; but as much as we like to talk about the sinful things people do, we forget there's a difference sin and evil... Sadly, there's always no one willing to come along and remind us.

Miniature

 Panoramic with 2 photos combined.
Single horizontal shot.

The mannequin in the second photo stands out in this photo, both with her outfit and colors.
Do you think she looks superficial?
Someone stands out does not mean they are superficial and even get somebody called them B-I-T-C-H (I have to spell it out to Emphasize it).
We strive to be the one and the one strives to be us.
Once we had stood proud in the crowd, we made a difference. However, we will get negativities in return. Negativities spoken by people, with envy. Rumors, by people. Scandal, by douche bags.
The most ironic thing is people think you stand out with scandal.

有时,人,脱颖而出;
往往会招来一身祸。

是福?是祸?
看法依个人。

我们,因实力而出,
人,往往,尔虞我诈。
因为 眼红。
就会把你说成:因靠山而起。

为什么有些人说模特儿,是因为身世朴素,就为了勾当,而一炮而红。
为什么有人说,他/她们,是以实力而站起来!

清者自清。
我们无须理会别人说什么,做什么;
你,认为对的- 就坚持下去。
但是,有时,意见和难听的批评,是我们强身健体的良药也!
学会接受。是桩好事。

这就是人。世界。

用耳看,
用眼听,
用心闻。

花。钱。完



刚刚,和一位学妹谈到了金钱,她提点了我一件事。

钱,应该花,
在理,应该用,
怎么用?有用之处。
不必要的,免了。

所以,我,大多数不花钱,
不代表我,孤寒,吝啬。
而是,我会理财。

我们,应该,让
钱生钱。

Money, should be spent, wisely.
and not be spent exhaustingly.

I, did not spend much,
does not mean,
Stingy.
It means, I know how to control
the Flow of my money,
of my Treasury
of my Monetary.

We, should let money
multiples;
and NOT
spending multiple tiers every day.

"A little bit more"

Beautiful

I made a vow yesterday. I promised my brother, Yang one thing. I was sorry for him and myself because I did not work hard all this while.

Our dream is big.

From now onwards, I promise my brother that I will work hard for these few months; work hard for the final examination and the public examination, STPM too. I already got up.

I will perform my best and I will be the crème de la crème!

This is no kidding. I promised him and I will fulfill and accomplish it!

I want to further my studies abroad; I do not want to stay in Malaysia anymore. I will do this. I do not want to regret anymore.

Yesterday night, I was awoken. I did not sleep anymore. Some words got me thinking. It is not the time for me to rest and relax anymore.

This is the only chance I work my best of the best and fly overseas.

For the first time, I felt the love and passion rushing to my heart! I knew what I want very clearly. I knew what I want! I will walk and die for it! I do not want local university, I want a scholarship and to stay in The United States and get a green card and stay there as a citizen! This is my American Dream.

I promised my brother and myself that we will work hard together until we win all these!

We have the same dream and we are going to pursue it. We are going to do whatever to go for it and to get a title of Psychologist.

We are not going to let that go!

At night, I was listening to mix.fm while I was pulling my socks and slogging my way to revision and home works. The song “Beautiful” by Christina Aguilera was playing and this is my brother’s favorite song that I sent him.

At that very moment, deep in my heart, I did not feel hollow and empty anymore. I felt there was a fire inside me. The flame was burning hot and it was my passion inside that was burning.

I know I had to do something that moment. Aye. I have to work thousand times harder to go for my dream.

I am going The United States and I am going to be the world’s prestigious psychologist (my brother too!) and a criminal profiler. I will not let myself and my brother down!

This is me, the real me! I have awoken. I do not sleep in slumber anymore.

I love you forever Yang. This is the sound you hear from me talking. For brothers: Macus Ong and Ong Ch’n Yang.
