米價高漲，轉移目標 / Price rice increasing, changed target

百物價格高漲，感覺上米價漲得最厲害。以前吃的那個牌子的米（十公斤）從馬幣二十多令吉漲至三十多令吉，家人開始轉移目標，選了巨人霸級市場售賣的米，二十多令吉還算過得去吧。沒辦法啦，全部售賣的米中它是最便宜的。祈求老天爺保佑百物別再漲價了，再這樣下去平民百姓會受不了噢。下個月打算去其他霸級市場走走，希望能買到更便宜的米。嗚。。。

Goods price increasing daily recently, I think the price rice has increased the most. The rice that we bought previously (10KG) the price has increased from RM20 plus to RM30 plus, what a huge increased. Family has changed the target; Dad has bought the rice that packed by Giant Supermarket. It costs RM20 plus, can consider not bad for the cheap price because it is the cheapest among others brand. I hope God bless us, stop increasing for the goods price, else civilians may not afford to buy foods or anything in the future. Plan to have a survey for next month in supermarkets, hopefully can get a cheaper price rice. Wuuu…..

那個預言【二】/ The Prediction [2]

世界各國人心惶惶，人禍各地發生，天災更不斷地到來。臺灣九二一大地震、九一一民航飛機撞向美國世界貿易中心摩天高楼事件、二零零四年南亞大海嘯後，大家以為災難已過，應該平息吧，但萬萬沒想到過了一陣子，最近天災再次拜訪地球。今年的五月對兩國來說可悲得很，先來說說緬甸，這國家一路以來可說是很少聽到天災的發生，但五月頭上天給了個大考驗，突如其來的風災奪取了不少人的性命更毀滅了他們的家園。再來就是中國四川八級大地震，奪取上萬平民百姓的生命，而且死傷人數還在上升，難民有家歸不得。站在他們的立場，我能感受到他們的悲與痛。

星期六聽著收音機時，廣播人員報導著死傷人數，聽了令人咋舌。他還說有預言家批這場天災不是最嚴重的，最嚴重的一次會是九點二級大地震，發生日期不詳。這個預言令我想起了另一件事，那就是北京奧運會。曾經讀過關於某預言家的預言，他說北京奧運會會開不成，那時我在想是否跟西藏獨立事件有關，但現在再想想好像跟這場天災關係比較大。九點二級大地震，可想而知比這場八級的地震來的恐怖吧！無論如何，畢竟這只是個預言，希望這個預言失效。

Human around the world feel panic because man-made and natural disasters happening around the world. After Taiwan 921 earthquake, Incident 911 aircrafts crashed into the US World Trade Center, Year 2004 Asian Tsunami, we thought of the disaster has passed; it should be calm for the future. But just a moment later, natural disasters once again visited the Earth lately. The month of May for this year should be a sad month for 2 countries. Firstly, talk about Myanmar. Myanmar is a country rarely happens of natural disasters, but God has given a big challenge for them in the beginning of May. The storm has kills a lot people, and even destroyed their homes. Next is the China Sichuan 8-degree earthquake, has killed hundred thousands of civilians, and the numbers dead & injuries is still rising, refugees cannot return to their homes. I can feel their grief & pain.

Last Saturday listening to the radio, the broadcaster reported the numbers of dead and injuries, I feel staggered. He said according to the news from one of the predictor, this time is not the most serious earthquake, the most serious one will be 9.2-degree, date happen unknown. This prediction reminds me of another thing, the Beijing Olympics Game. Once upon, I did read about a prediction from a predictor, he did mentioned of the Beijing Olympics will not held successfully. At that time, I thought of is it because of the incident of Independence of Tibet, but now it seem like more related to the natural disaster. 9.2-degree earthquake is definitely more serious than the earthquake just happened few days ago; anyway this is just a prediction, let pray and hope the prediction fail at the end.

媽，祝您老母節快樂。雖然簡單的一句，但這是來自我內心的真心祝福。。。

Mom, wishing you having a Happy Mother's Day. Although it's a simple sentence, but this wish is truly from my heart...

懷念風城 / Missed Land Below The Wind

轉眼間，去年的沙巴之旅剛滿一年了。時間過得眞快咧，所有的細節與情景就好像昨天發生那樣一幕幕地在腦海閃過。好想念風城，風城的景色讓我留念，神山的蹤影讓我忘懷。。。不知何時才會從回風城。。。

The time has passed pretty fast, last Sabah trip has passed for a year; whatever had happened at Sabah is seem like just happened yesterday. Unwilling to forget places that visited in Sabah last year, Mount Kinabalu is another place that unforgettable by me. I missed Land Below The Wind so much, not really sure when will be my next visit to this beautiful land…

您的記憶水平到哪裡？/ What is your memory level?

說到記憶力，我的記憶水平可說是平平的。不說在說，我家的那兩個豆丁，一個九歲，一個六歲，兩個都是姐姐的子女。說到他們的記憶力，可說有時超厲害有時平平。為何呢？因為當他們背起或記起學校功課時，有時背不起，有時卻能背得好好，這我可說是平平吧。但說到背流行歌曲、卡通歌曲、電視上以及廣播電臺所播放的廣告時，他們可說是朗朗上口，廣告在說甚麼他們的嘴巴就唸甚麼，可說是九十九點九巴仙吻合，甚至有時說得比廣告還要快。至於卡通或流行歌曲更不用說，唱到滾瓜爛熟。

我想你們萬萬都沒想到他們除了可以記這些以外，就連回教的可蘭經他們都有本事記得。你可能會奇怪他們是怎樣背可蘭經，告訴你吧，兩個豆丁放學回家後都有看電視臺所播放的卡通片，播到一半時都有可蘭經插播，天天這樣聽就朗朗上口囖，但我媽聽後都會阻止，哈哈。那天我對姐姐說他們厲害到能背可蘭經，姐姐有點驚訝，還叫兩個豆丁唸給她聽，但他們說不行，婆婆聽了後會罵，哈哈。

我覺得每個人的記憶力都不一樣，有些厲害有些平平，但都能慢慢地改善。對於這兩個豆丁，希望他們都能在功課上加倍努力吧！

It's time to talk about human memory; my memory considered in the average level. Let's talk about my nephew and niece, one is 9 year old and another is 6 year old, their memory sometimes in average level but sometimes I got to say super good. Why? Because when asked them try to remembering the words and readings from their school books, sometimes they managed to remember what they had read before but sometimes cannot, so in this case I got to say they are in average level. But when come to remembering for pop songs, cartoon songs, TV and radio advertisements, I got to say they are super good. What the advertisements showing they can follow & read it exactly, 99.9% same as what the advertisements showing, sometimes they even can read faster than the advertisements. Same as cartoon & pop songs, they can sing & remembered it very well.

Beside these, I think you will never thought of they can even remember Al-Quran (Islamic Sutra). Maybe you will surprise how they do that, let me tell you. Most of the time both of them will watch cartoon shows after back from school, in between the show there will be an Al-Quran (Islamic Sutra) reading added in, they listen it day-by-day so finally they remembered it, but my mom will stop them when they read the Al-Quran…haha. I told my sister (their mom) they can read the Al-Quran, she seem like a little bit surprised, some more ask them to read on the sport but both of them ignored caused they said grand mom will scold them…haha.

I think all of our memories are different; some are good some are fair, but we can improve it slowly. I hope my nephew and niece can focus more on their academic, put some efforts on their study for a better future!

摩哆機車與的士 / Motorbike and Taxi

昨天月尾加班如常，騎摩哆機車回家時踏出公司的大門機車遙遙晃，心知不妙，望望輪胎果然不出我所料，爆胎！機車唯有暫時放在公司，的士是唯一選擇吧。

上車後，計程表以二令吉開始計算。天啊，跳得太快了，我的眼睛從上車直到下車都沒離開過計程表，每跳十仙我心裡就“哇”一聲。到路口時跳到四令吉了，我趕快喊的士司機停在路口，不用轉進我家樓下。呼。。。不用十分鐘的路程，四令吉，你說貴嗎？我很少搭的士，應該有五年以上吧，所以感覺有點貴。。。呃。。。慘了，好像孤寒和吝嗇的面子都擺出來了，哈哈。感覺上沒了機車眞的不方便，所以呀要好好的愛護它，感謝它多年來為我負出許多。

Yesterday work overtime till late night, when riding my motorbike back home (just step out from the company’s gate) the motorbike was shaking. I guess I know what was going on, my sixth senses told me tyre puncture, its true man. No choice, motorbike need to left at company, taxi was the only choice.

The taxi’s meter started at RM2 once I get in. My God, the meter keep on jumped. My eyes stared at the meter since get into the cab till back home, the meter jumped too fast. Every 10 cents it jumped, my mind will said “wow”. When the meter jumped till RM4, it almost reaches at my apartment, I quickly asked the driver drop me immediately without stop at ground floor. Huu... RM4 for a journey less than 10 minutes, do you think expensive? I seldom take taxi (more than 5 years), that’s why feel expensive. Errr… seem like my stingy face showing off now, haha. I feel inconvenient without my motorbike, that’s why must always love & take care of her, thanks for my motorbike for these few years of service.

無所事事，用電腦畫畫我的摩哆，美嗎？哈哈。

Feel boring, use my computer to draw out my motorbike, nice? Haha.

慢慢走 / Walking Slowly

媽發生小意外至今已一個月了，在家裡看她用著扶手慢慢走起路來感覺有點安慰。每天回到家後看見她都有點開心，因為這場意外讓我珍惜我與她的親子關係。媽住院的那個星期，家裡顯得格外的冷清，她回家後，冷清消失了。我為她祈禱，希望她早日康復，能像往日一樣走路時不用用扶手。

It has been 1 month for the accident, I feel comfortable when mom can walk slowly with the walking frame. Because of this accident, I treasuring our parent-child relationship, it gets closer and closer. When mom was hospitalized, I felt my home was so quiet and lonely; when she is back, the quiet & lonely disappeared. I pray to God, I hope mom having a speedy recovery, hope she can walk like previously without walking frame.

他們比誰都更傷心。。。 / They are saddest than anyone...

農歷新年已過，本來這個新年感覺不大開心因為母親發生小意外。但既然事情已過，就當做發了一場惡夢吧。我不開心，但地球另一端的某些人也許比我更傷心，他們是誰呢？

當每個華裔同胞正在開開心心地慶祝農歷新年時，你有否想過那些家裡某某成員不幸在農歷新年或前後幾天逝世的人，他們不是更傷心嗎？他們要如何度過？原本沒想過這樣的問題，只因農歷新年期間某親戚告知他的某某親戚往生了，再來就是初六上班時才得知同事的父親在年二十九逝世了，還有新年期間我家對面的殯儀館都有家庭成員為死者舉行殯禮，這幾件事都讓我轉換我的念頭以及站在他們的立場去想，他們比任何人都傷心。

媽在醫院都有一直在問為何她會意外跌倒，我對她說這可能是不幸中的大幸，看看其他病房的病人，插滿水管的、睡著不醒的、意外重傷不能說話的，他們不是更慘嗎？媽似乎了解了。

Chinese New Year has passed; at the beginning I feel sad for this New Year due to the small accident happened to mom. But since it was passed; just let it be. I feel sad but someone from the other side of the earth is saddest than me, who are them?

When each and every Chinese are celebrating the Chinese New Year happily, have you ever thought of those people who family member passed away on the Chinese New Year or before or after the Chinese New Year? They are saddest than me. How they celebrated the Chinese New Year? Actually I never thought of this question before, until my relative visited us on Chinese New Year and told us one of their relative has passed away just right before Chinese New Year, added when I back to work on the 6th day of Chinese New Year then only I was told by colleague one of my colleague father has passed away on the eve of Chinese New Year eve. Some more few funeral ceremonies were held at the funeral parlour just opposite to my apartment during Chinese New Year. Few of these cases changed my thought, they are saddest than anyone else.

Mom always asked me why the accident happened to her when she was in the ward, I told her it's just a minor accident, and maybe it's a great fortune for her. Look at other patients, those with full of tubes around their body, some cannot even move and sleep there for the whole day, some with serious accident and cannot even talk, are there more bad or miserable than us? Mom seems to understand.

生日不快樂 / Not A Happy Birthday

二零零八年二月十七日，人生進入了第二十七個年頭，二十七歲了。我沒把這天記住，直到有人傳短訊祝我生日快樂時，我才記得。沒特地的把它記住和慶祝，只因我想簡單地度過，沒想到要簡單度過也簡單不了，早上一個晴天霹靂，考驗降在母親的身上。天剛亮，我準備載雙親到市場買菜時，媽經過樓下雜貨店前的走廊時因貨物擺放得太多，路太窄，就一個不小心踢到貨物跌在地上，當時我心裡有種不好的感覺。扶起媽後，看她走路的樣子是多麼的辛苦，醫院是唯一的選擇。

到醫院檢查時，我以平常心去看待這件事，結果不是我想像那麼簡單。Ｘ－光顯示右上腳的髖關節骨折，唯一的方法是開刀植入假的骨，那是不是晴天霹靂呢？沒辦法，手術排到星期三才進行，手術前幾天唯有住院因為根本就不能走動。

這一個星期裡，家人都輪流的陪在她身旁。動手術那天，我從早上陪媽聊天聊到下午五點半。媽一直說怕，我說以前我也有被推進手術室的經驗啊，麻醉藥打在手上後，不到五秒鐘眼睛立刻閉上，繼續下來醫生做甚麼我也不知道。講著講著，媽才放松了許多。手術進行大約兩個小時，從手術室推出來後她還半昏迷，嘴巴不停的喊痛，我心很酸。據護士說，手術進行時醫生已幫媽打了十次止痛藥，不能過量，所以手術完成後不能再打因為怕有生命危險，她能做的就只有忍。小妹陪媽在醫院過夜，第二天媽醒來後感覺比較舒服。整個星期我都處在低落的狀態，直到星期六醫生允許她出院後我才感覺放松點。

現在媽在家裡休息，需要一段時間才能完全康復，在此祝她早日康復，身體健康。媽，愿您快點好回噢！我視這次的事件為上天給媽、我以及家人的一個考驗，為我二十七歲的生日寫下洗不去的故事。

17th February 2008 is my 27th Birthday, I didn’t purposely remember it till someone sent sms to me wishing me Happy Birthday then only I remember is my birthday. I didn’t purposely remember it and do any celebrations because I want it pass like normal day, but everything out my expectation. A “challenge” has thrown to my mom in the morning when I prepared to fetch my parent to market. When we passed by one of the shops at the ground floor of my apartment, there are a lot of goods stacking on the corridor & the walkway became narrow. One of the goods was hit by my mom & she fell down, some bad thought came to my mind on that moment. She cannot walk well; the only way is to send her to hospital.

I calmed down myself; I hope it was just a minor problem. But when the result was out, it was out of my expectation. The x-ray shows that there is a fracture on the right hip, the only thing they can do is to make a hip replacement operation. It’s so sudden and we got no choice, the operation was scheduled on Wednesday, and she need to stay at ward caused totally cannot walk.

For the whole week, we took rotation to take care of mom. On the operation day, I was chatted with her since morning till 5:30pm. Mom told me she was scared, I told her I have operation experience before. When the injection of anesthetise was given, it just took around 5 seconds to unconscious, and we will do not know what going on later. She felt relax after listened my advised. The operation took around 2 hours, she was half-unconscious when came out from the operating room. She told me very pain, I felt sad. The nurse told me the doctor had given 10 painkiller injections to mom during operation, cannot over injection else it might be dangerous for her, what she can do is be patient. My sister was over night with her in the hospital, mom look better when she woke up in the next day morning. My mood was down the whole week, I feel better when doctor said my mom can discharge from hospital on the Saturday morning.

She is resting at home now; need to take some time to recover. I’m here to wish her having a speedy recover, and also healthy all the way. I look upon this incident as a “challenge” from God to mom, family members and me, it can consider as an unforgettable story for my 27th year old birthday in my life.

新年短訊 / CNY's SMS

農歷新年的到來，賀年語一定免不了，手機短訊更不用說。新年手機賀歲短訊一大堆，從農歷新年除夕的前幾天手機開始收短訊收到快要爆滿，沒辦法之下唯有刪除。收到的短訊我都沒傳給其他人，反而自己用了一點時間來自制了一則新年短訊。快來讀讀以下的手機短訊吧，是我想出來的。

趕走豬小弟，迎來鼠大哥；阿七下臺，阿八上任。祝你有個“鼠”不盡的金鼠年，“鼠”氣洋洋，“鼠”開得勝，最重要的就是別膽小如鼠哦。新年快樂，恭喜恭喜！

我把這則短訊傳給手機名單中的朋友，不管看得懂華文或看不懂的都傳（我猜想那些看不懂華文的都是聰明的，因為看不懂自然會問人家），不知他們是否有傳給其他朋友嗎。那正在這篇文章的你是否有收到這則手機短訊嗎？

Chinese New Year has come, I believe for some of you the CNY’s sms is a must for every year. This year I received a lot of CNY’s sms started from few days before CNY eve, unfortunately I can’t keep all the sms due to limited phone space so have to delete it. I did not forward sms that I received instead I took a little time to created my own CNY’s sms. Faster come and read the sms at below, it’s created by me but it’s in Chinese version.

I did sent the sms to my phone list friends, even to those who do not understand Mandarin Language (I believe they are smart, because if they do not understand sure will ask those who understand Mandarin. Right? HeHe), but not sure whether they got forward to their friends or not. For those of you who reading right now, does you received this sms?
