I must have heard that title somewhere in a song lyric. Somewhere but just can’t figure it out or where. I am in the mood to type now and I am on a roll. [actually I have no idea what it means .. hahahaha]

Anyway, I just finished story telling you all about how life can be shorter just by you yourself own choice. If that guy not in a hurry, he probably still alive or at least not handicapped by his own mistake or the other word that others like to use, *stupe* Read the rest of this entry »

This is a quickie one. I missed this blog and been a long time already. To those reading this through the feed reader, well apology sincerely from me. Honestly I have no mood to update this blog or whatever the term is. It’s not that nothing much happening but I just don’t feel like sharing it anymore.

I am typing this without thinking much of anything except one thing, road accident happening around here. I’ve seen many accidents on my way to work and sometimes it really scares me. I just pray they all got nothing to do with me and my family. I am driving as careful as possible, looking and be aware of my surrounding and trying to anticipate the other drivers next move. You cannot control others, but you can control yourself. Read the rest of this entry »

Mother’s Love Unmatchable, Matchless, Incomparable. Whatever you call the term is, Mother’s love is just eminent beyond.

My mom only had one eye. I hated her … she was such an embarrassment.
She cooked for students & teachers to support the family.
There was this one day during elementary school where my mom came to say hello to me.
I was so embarrassed.
How could she do this to me?
I ignored her, threw her a hateful look and ran out.
The next day at school one of my classmates said,
“EEEE, your mom only has one eye!”
I wanted to bury myself.
I also wanted my mom to just disappear.

So I confronted her that day and said,
“If you’re only gonna make me a laughing stock, why don’t you just die?!!!”
My mom did not respond …
I didnt even stop to think for a second about what I had said, because I was full of anger.
I was oblivious to her feelings.

I wanted out of that house, and have nothing to do with her.
So I studied real hard, got a chance to go to Singapore to study.
Then, I got married.
I bought a house of my own.
I had kids of my own.
I was happy with my life, my kids and the comforts.

Then one day, my mother came to visit me.
She hadn’t seen me in years and she didn’t even meet her grandchildren.
When she stood by the door, my children laughed at her, and I yelled at her for coming over uninvited.
I screamed at her, “How dare you come to my house and scare my children!”
GET OUT OF HERE! NOW!!!”
And to this, my mother quietly answered, “Oh, I’m so sorry. I may have gotten the wrong address,” and she disappeared out of sight.

One day, a letter regarding a school reunion came to my house in Singapore.
So I lied to my wife that I was going on a business trip.
After the reunion, I went to the old shack just out of curiosity.

My neighbors said that she died.
I did not shed a single tear.

They handed me a letter that she had wanted me to have.

I think of you all the time. I’m sorry that I came to Singapore and scared your children.
I was so glad when I heard you were coming for the reunion. But I may not be able to even get out of bed to see you. I’m sorry that I was a constant embarrassment to you when you were growing up.

You see……..when you were very little, you got into an accident, and lost your eye. As a mother, I couldn’t stand watching you having to grow up with one eye.

So I gave you mine.

I was so proud of my son who was seeing a whole new world for me, in my place, with that eye.

With my love to you,
Your mother.

I am not sure I have posted this before and not sure you have read it somewhere. However, I am really sure I do not mind reading this again and again – to remind me of my Mother’s love to me and to the rest of us her children.

I love you Mom!

Yep, it is that time again. Yesterday was the Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of six and a half weeks of repentance, fasting and abstinence in preparation for the most important Christian festival of Easter.

We were at the Sacred Heart Church last night at around 7:15pm direct after my wife took me from the office and already like five thousand people there. Yep, seriously around that figure. The mass started just after 7:30pm and ended around 9pm for us. Yep, it was the long queue for the ‘marking on the forehead‘ session that lasted us that late. However, we were not complaining. It is expected. After all, this is the mark symbolizing our personal Lent season where physical and spiritual are tested to prepare us for the Easter Sunday. Every Christian Catholics wants the marking.

So friends and relatives, reminds ourselves that we are humans that sin and only by fasting, abstinence and do repentance that we are that bit closer to being accepted by GOD our creator. We have 40 days to prove ourselves that we can do it. All the best. May GOD bless you all, Amen.

*** for me, this also marks the beginning of slow blog posting here and more family time.

I am not sure this is applicable but it does look like Technology Can Change Us! LOL.

I no need look further, it’s happening to myself too. The moment I took home my first Flat Screen TV, my middle part section growing 2 cm now!!! Read the rest of this entry »

Same as the KK City Day, February 2nd, I celebrate myself as a Non-Smoker for Seven Years already. Around this hour 10pm back at 2002, but on February 1st, I was still smoking heavily trying to finish the 20 sticks of Dunhill, knowing deep in my heart I just have to stop smoking for the sake of my future baby.

Yep, I stopped smoking because I decided to have a baby of my own. A kid on the year of the Monkey. That was the plan since I somehow believe in Fengshui that a baby born on this year is good for our family. Wife born on the year of Rabbit. Perfect for her meaning perfect for us all. That was why, I have to stop smoking earlier. I have to make sure my bad smoking habit will not in anyway interfere with our plan to have a baby.

Praise The Lord GOD, after 3 years of marriage, a full honeymoon for us before that, wife got pregnant and nine months later, Josh Luke Joneh arrived through normal birth as expected. Thank GOD for that. We timed him to arrive on our wedding anniversary, we missed it by ONE DAY ONLY!!! In fact, less than 24 hours, birth time at 10:08pm. Aiyaaaah. LOL.

Iskkk…. no time to update this blog lah. School has started and early of the year workload makes me wanna just quit from entering this blog. Even my email is ignored for a while. Sigh. The only thing that makes me smile is when my kids near me and wife kissing me. Oh ya, the every morning DJ Othoe of Suria FM Kinabalu also makes me happy too. He is such a brilliant Made in Sabah ‘sot-sot’ punya DJ that I really love to listen.

Christmas story and New Year Celebration back in Kampung postpone for a while. Streamyx connection bad and waking up early for my Josh school time really makes me no mood for anything. So, to those who still has faith on this blog that it will be updated soon, thanks for the visit. I owe you many interesting posts. However for now, especially sitting on the floor looking at this old laptop at home now, taking care my Josh with his school work and “computer study’”, while waiting for our clothes outside to dry, makes me even lazy to do other things – including reading my 108 emails and updating this blog. Yes, I just ignore them. I told myself, every other things can wait. I more important to myself. Hahaha.

Did I mention I already gained weight? I am not sure the whole total physical weight but one thing I noticed is that all my pants, jeans, shorts are tighter now at the waist. Damn, I gain the whole one and half inch around my waist. Cilaka. I have to take deep breath, tuck my stomach in and pray that whatever I’m wearing that time fit around my waist. All this due to the Christmas and New Year Celebration I had. Too much of “Araimaiti”. Aiyooo. That damn 9.5% alcohol and that many hours sleeping after it. Yes, they’re the problems. I really need the weight loss pill. I wonder the company has that specific pill just for my waist. I do not mind friends, colleagues told me I’m fatter in 2009 but I hate when they said I’m more fatter in the middle. Aiyooooo. The only time I feel “thin” and can breath easily is when I’m wearing just my underwear (like right now ), my towel or nothing at all.

Oh well, I’m not getting younger. I guess I have to accept that this is the typical look of a pure kadazandusun person who drinks alcohol a lot and jogging is not his favorite spare time hobby. To add to that look, he is a shortie. I’m beginning to look like the pin bowl. Hahahahaha. As Sabahan used to say this kind of look – “Pendek – pendek tagap!”. Hahahahaha. Okay, enough, signing off now.

Mathematics is good for you! Okay as usual junks emails can sometimes bring cheers to your day. I just found out this one in my spam box during my boring session in the office. You tell me if it’s true or not okay.
