Where No One Tattoo The Love

I've been listening to Alicia's No One quite frequent in this few weeks on the radio. Mr. DJ tends to play the song for like every hour. Well indeed, everyone listen to no one but themselves nowadays.

I guess I don't listen to anyone too because I talk to myself and listen to my instinct all the time.

Is it a great song advice to listen to? Yes? Not really?


Since I like the Tattoo song from Jordin Sparks as well, I will try to make a story out of it to further explain my point. Ok, it's a brand new song that inspires many people. Not the song but the story behind it. Love to say this, it's an actual proof that a 17-year old girl could be tattooed with an American Idol title at anytime if she sounds confident and great in her vocal. Of course, not to forget, with the help of a million voters.

See, sometimes we do need help from the others to accomplish something. In the process, you need to listen to them and turns out their thoughts are significant to us. But my point is not supposed to look like this.

When you dedicate a question to your friends, "What do you think of my dress? Lovely, isn't it?" or "I don't really care how go about it, but I do think it's good" An intention to ignore those feedbacks will only make them to hate you.

You don't feel good if you shut your mind with your own opinion and ignoring the rest. Everyone hates you. You might not love to hear this, but love is really what you need. The question is.. Where is the love?

Coincidently, it's my favorite song. Though you sang really well, Fergie, you need to thank to your other members in Black Eye Peas for their ideas and contribution. Without them, there's no you.

Love the people around you, and they shall love you in return.

How lovely if I were to tell you there's a song clip herewith combining all the 3 songs I mentioned above. It's pretty obvious I wanted to put a linkage between those songs :)

Kudos to Boyceavenue. Love you your voice, and you people out there!

His Marriage and Its 20 years

Since the last printout on crazy marriage stuff, today I received an email from the same colleague again with similar jokes on marriage. Well I can’t really provide any thoughts on this as I’m still single. But let’s hope you are not in the position of this wife or husband in the following case. Marriage should have a happy ending, as likely in most classic fairy tales.


A beautiful view of marriage life

A woman awakes during the night to find that her husband was not in bed.

She goes downstairs to look for him. She finds him sitting at the kitchen table with a cup of coffee in front of him.

He appears to be in deep thought, just staring at the wall. She watches as he wipes a tear from his eye and takes a sip of his coffee.

'What's the matter, dear?' she whispers as she steps into the room. 'Why are you down here at this time of night?'

The husband looks up from his coffee, 'Do you remember 20 years ago when we were dating, and you were only 18?' he asks solemnly. 'Yes I do' she replies.

The husband pauses; the words were not coming easily. 'Do you remember when your father caught us in the garden?'

'Yes, I remember' said the wife, lowering herself into a chair beside him.

The husband continued.. 'Do you remember when he showed the shotgun in my face and said, 'Either you marry my daughter, or I'll send you to jail for 20 years?'

'I remember that too' she replied softly.

He wiped another tear from his cheek and said, 'I would have been released today!'

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

The moral of the story, if reality really differs from fairy tales, just pray that someday your prince charming will run over by his horse, or your snow white will just choked and die off while eating Mandarin orange.

Don't take this seriously though, as Chinese is approaching new year. Let the craze begin!

Life Isn't Short-sighted

A brand new year has arrived.

And the real drama being enacted in TV becomes reality.



Like greased lightning, I was swiftly sail through piles of work in office lately. I'm not crazy, but I wanted to laugh. A big one. Just relief my stress.

Work is like reading a never ending storybook. But I remained conscious for long hours though 5 hours of sleep a day merely isn’t enough.

I told myself - Life is short, I don't need to sleep for such long hours to put half of my lifetime into waste. Good news for those having insomnia then, you tend to have more hours to do more reckless things to your life. Make sure it's reckless but eventually mark a meaningful thought though.

You know what, I still think I should make it a point to do something meaningful to my life every month, weekday, or even initiate it every hour.

Well.. throughout the rest of my life, I'll first try my level best to satisfy the kid in me. You should as well. It could be to spend some time playing online games, cracking some jokes with friends or buy some gadgets to kill the curiosity.

Whenever I managed to do that, the feeling great traveled to every parts of my body, even my bones.

Hey, my company isn't Google Inc. I don't have 20% spare time in office to do whatever I like. Gosh, I can see it coming. The end of today, tomorrow.. it's all the same old stuff to manage. Sounds like a happy ending to retirees. It sounds so manageable. However, the thirst for real challenges are the real kool-aid for young nuts like me.

On the other hand, I also need time to fix problems in life, besides adding spices and sucking candy along the path of life. Having done something that is acknowledged to be wrong in a sense, which in this case, no updates on this blog of mine, startled was what I felt.

So first I need to work, then solve problems, and then enjoy life a bit, and it iterates over and over and over Again!

At the mean time, any ideas on how to live an ideal life?

I will try to get help from books like The Secret and The Yoga of Life.

Top 10 New Year's Resolution For Geeks

Firstly, hope you had a happy and wonderful celebration of a brand new year. It seems there are a lot of people posting videos on their new year resolutions in YouTube and asking around in Yahoo!Answers.

Then I happened to stumble on an article from Mark Hopkins regarding new year resolutions for geeks.

Maybe I should craft similar ones in that sense, since there's some lil geeky genes in me.

Some of these resolutions sound great though. Mmm, let's see.

1. Log-in to my social networks more than twice a week
Say hello to Facebook, Friendster, MySpace and Bebo fortnightly and I shall be overwhelmed by the massive amount of spam from the anglosphere. Hope to say goodbye to them before a week ends.


2. Drink the Apple Kool-Aid
I can feel the thrist for Apple laptops. Though Leopard could hunt for attraction in its way (imho) but still lives with the threat from Vista. Yes, everyone needs a change for good. The question is when.


3. Set up a spam bot for Ron Paul
Hey U.S presidential candidate and representative for Texas, please help us and we shall help you. Nice guy indeed.


4. Get control of my personal brand
If you like branded stuff, you should try me. I'm currently memorizing Neil Patel's advice. I'm weird. And weird is a brand though.


5. Invest in the next Google
I want to be a Web 3.0 billionaire. Yay! Dreaming big dream is my first step to achieve the goal.


6. Get my calendaring organized
Google's calendar sounds cool but I seldom use it. Still prefer to stick post-it notes around my monitor which look messy but they tend to get me organized.


7. Travel to more conferences
This is certainly a great way to meet new people around the world and build up the network. Am currently looking for a sponsor.


8. Fix my grammar errors
Whether it's American English or British English, I need someone or something to correct my grammar. It's not for me, it's for your reading pleasure. lols


9. Make the next blockbuster online video podcast
I've Adobe Premiere and Pinnacle Studio installed but first I need a video cam to make this happen.


10. Get my email under control
Let today's printscreen speaks for itself. For you it might appears to be peanuts, but to a nobody like me, it's more like watermelon seeds.


So what's the new year's resolutions for non-geeks? Party all night?
