The world has lost a Hero.
The world has really lost a Hero. Someone that we didn't expect and don't want to leave from this cruel world. You see, my uncle, passed away just few days ago. It was a heavy loss to everyone, not only the family but also his friends and workmates. And I think if you were to see how my grandfather cried and my aunt cried, you'll think to yourself, love really is strong. My grandpa's love for his son, My aunt's love for my uncle. How would you survive, when you see your son pass before you? How would you survive, when the love of your life just gone without a goodbye. Yet, my family managed to stay strong, most of the time. But what I am really mad about is the main reason my uncle passed and if I don't share it out, I think it would be an insult to his memory.
You see, my uncle passed away in Bangkok. On the night of his passing, he complained to the hotel manager that he was having chest pains and wanted an ambulance to bring him to a hospital. According to my aunt that went and retrieve the body, the hospital was only 10 minutes away but it took an hour for the ambulance to arrive. As usual, my intelligent uncle knew he had a medical card with him, took it out along with his ID and whatnot to show it to the doctor. Unfortunately, he fainted due to low oxygen in his blood. The doctor, in one of the most well known place in the world, COULDN'T READ OR SPEAK ENGLISH. With this communication breakdown, IF ONLY THEY KNEW HOW TO READ, IF ONLY THEY LEARNT HOW, but unfortunately, they failed to find out the problem and my uncle passed ALONE in that hospital. If only he was in Malaysia, he would have been saved.
And to that note, we might as well ask ourselves, why must there be a barrier in this kind of situation. WHY?! Ask yourself, if this were to happen to you, who would you blame? And now the government in Malaysia wants to change ALL the maths and science subject from English to Malay and he, the head of education, made his decision without consulting the citizen. If there is a barrier already, why must they enforce it more. Don't you think they have already enough problem in their hands? Their just asking for trouble. Sigh.
Well, back to my uncle, it is just sad to see it this way. When I sat in the car with my aunt after the burial, she cried even more and it hurt me a lot. Now I know why they say, love always hurts, even for both party. However, it is the little things along the way that made all these worth while. Being beside each other at hard times, having those happy moments you can share together, etc. Or does it hurt even more the happier we are, I don't know. I'm still young and exploring. So hopefully, my future spouse will love me as much as I will love her. And I will love her A LOT.

Wondering how God works his ways,
Why must he take my uncle so early?

Mind blown!
Woah! I just found out something awesome about the day i was born!
It falls on the 9th day of the 9th month according to chinese calender and on this month, there is a celebration called Festival of the Nine Emperor Gods. This festival usually last for 15 days but the most important day of all would be the 9th day of this celebration. And guess what? I was born on this day! Now the special thing about this is that every 9th day of the 9th month of the chinese calender, there is a 90% chance that it will rain. So this date in this year actually fell on the 5th of October this year and it RAINED! :D Awesome eh? According to chinese folklore, the 9 Gods came through the sea, that's why it rains all the time on this date of the chinese calender. So next time keep in mind and you can think of me! Woooh that was cheesy! HAHAH.

Isn't it too early?
Life's blazing by,
Everyone I know is saying their goodbyes,
Graduating and all, after this year, we'll meet new people,
New culture, new way of life, I just hope nothing changed between my friends,
The memories we had together, the pain felt by one another, owh such a pity,
Life is always pushing you to better things in life but in my opinion, i rather stay,
Or at least make time go slower, there's still so many mischief undone, so many praises not obtained,
Hopefully, we won't forget one another, and may we return someday if not everyday to catch up on stuff. I really am gonna miss high school with the friends I've met.
Please, stay longer.
Yours Truly.

As long as chivalry never dies, I won't too.
Isn't this picture super cute?! :D
If a kid like that gets to dance a girl like that, gosh, where do I hide my face?
It's okay, someday I will. No matter where. I'm still waiting for that moment.
But I do know I won't change my way. Chivalry won't die. It's too cheesy for some, too lame for others but it's just right one for one. Well, Here I come to whom ever that is next. I'm getting to you as fast as I can, day by day, and I hope you're getting as fast as you can too. I can and will wait. :)
Yours Truly.

Remembering 9/11
Time and time again, we, humans, misunderstand each other.
But when the time of grief or sadness arises.
The tears unite us. As far as I'm concern, everyone no matter how bad, how evil, how cruel, does have a heart in them.
It's not easy to lose someone, though I may not know the feeling yet, I do understand the pain. In the end, it's the truth we have to face. But be advised that no matter how stinging the pain. you are not alone. No matter what.
Where it suppose to stand.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zr1pwZXf65w
Where you'll cry your heart out for the people you may not know.
Just have a day off and just take a few moments to be in silence.
For the people that lost their mum and dad.
For the people that lost their children.
For the people that lost their lovers.
For the people that thought they lost everything.
I think I can speak on behalf of everyone I know, my condolences.
Yours Truly.

What does it take to be a Hero?
To anyone that wants it. To anyone that needs it. To anyone that deserves it.
17 years I have been living. 17 years of too many failure,
Not only to me, but to others, Some even left without much explanation.
I don't want that to happen again. Especially with so many challenges up ahead.
Forgive me for everything.
I think I might fail everyone again.
It kills to know I can't be who you want me to be.
The Hero you want, need, and deserve.
