Masiswa 2009

Tmr the game starts but I m not involved. So, I will be busy with my classes and might join them(bringing Er) to see the teams play bola. Yeah, I m still very much interested in bola-games, and will surely llove to support our school players. Well, I m "busy" and my thoughts are far-away ...

Seow Boon(GSB) is a Hokkien, staying nearby my childhood home at Kepong Baru. Yeah, I think I m basically like her for her 'nice' long hair, at first. I dont really remember exactly when or why I hv chosen to be in crush on her, and I THOUGHT I was in-love? Being such a chicken(with low confidence with girls), I did not dare to approach her. So, basically almost everyday at school, I will steal a peek on her. Hehe ...

Then, my younger sis, Feleene who is one yr her junior became the school prefect. Oh, GSB was a prefect too. Her best friend Jeannie was a prefect and a good friend with my sis!! That is how my sis got to know her ... but I never dare to tell my sis that I 'admired' her!! Haha .. Funny, as I could easily laugh it off now but not in 1982 then. Anything about her is perfect and the more I observed her, the more i THOUGHT i fall-in-love with her!! Hehe ...

2 years past, I was just looking at her from the distance. Well, I passed my SRP(form 3) and moving to another school(Raja Ali) for my form 4. She was still at Kepong Baru school in Form 3, then. I know I will miss her face ... so, I tailed her home(nearby ... house no 121, jalan 68!! See, I can still remember!! haha) one day so that I could cycle pass by her house once in a while if I 'miss' her ...

Superman

Superman (It's not Easy) by Five for Fighting



Superman (It's Not Easy) by Five for Fighting.

I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive,
I'm just out to find
The better part of me

I'm more than a bird
I'm more than a plane
I'm more than some pretty face beside a train
And it's not easy to be me

Wish that I could cry
Fall upon my knees
Find a way to lie,
'Bout a home I'll never see

It might sound absurd,
But don't be naive
Even heroes have the right to bleed
I may be disturbed
But won't you conceive
Even heroes have the right to dream
And it's not easy to be me

Up, up, and away, away from me
But it's alright,
You can all sleep sound tonight
I'm not crazy or anything

I can't stand to fly
I'm not that naive,
Men weren't meant to ride
With clouds between their knees

I'm only a man in a silly red sheet
Digging for kryptonite on this one way street
Only a man in a funny red sheet
Looking for special thing inside of me
Inside of me
Inside of me
Yeah, inside of me
Inside of me

I'm only a man in a funny red sheet
I'm only a man looking for her dream
I'm only a man in a funny red sheet
And it's not easy
Oooo oooo oooo

It's not easy
To be
Me

7.50 am : Morning ... Sometime I wish to say that I m not a "Superman" but I think I wish to be a "Superman". When I was younger, perhaps I wish I could fly after watching the first Superman, The Movie. Yeah, any other young boys would be, I dreamt of becoming the man-of-steel. I won't feel the pain, I don't have to eat and could fly to any places at anytime I wish ... and the best part of it, I will be saving the world and becoming a HERO.

Today, I no longer day-dreaming but at times, I wish I m REALLY strong to withstand so much of pressure(mostly the expectation from myself) against the community/society. I simply hear too much of NOISES from my surrounding. Sometimes I feel so drown by the noises that I could not enjoy the nice melodies playing in my mind. I get really sad.

Yeah, sometimes I wish to share with Mag that it is not easy to be me. I don't have common thinking. I have to struggle internally, trying to conform to the majority and I m deceiving myself. II hv to let go of so many of my principles in the name of being NORMAL. I m forced to hypocritely smile to people aroound, and listen to craps they are speaking about. And no matter what I think about, I hv no outlet to share. I feel trap inside my own thoughts. It is certainy not easy to be ...me. I m not being myself now, anyway.

Can MONEY really release me freely AWAY from this materialisitic world? I know I m planning to earn my first million in 3-5 years time, and it is becoming clearer that it is possible. Using KNOWLEDGE to generate huge amount of MONEY ... I hope I dont go insane anytime soon. The pace I m going is really insane. I hv to mute my emotion, to work extremely hard, living far below my means ... in the sake of accumulating wealth. That is NOT the direction of live I wish for ... I wish to be a Superman ... to fly with birds, swim with dolphins and mermaids and to run in safari with zebras? How I wish ...

In reality, I hv tonnes of papers to mark and loads of economic/biz data to digest. In reality, I hv to keep mum about my thoughts(not even allowed to speak my mind in my OWN blog as it has been seen inappropriate for a lecturer to write something deemed "BAD"). You could imagine amount of insanity inside me, facing the stupidity of my surrounding.

I wish to fly ...

Emil Chow(Wa Kin)

周華健 - 風雨無阻



周華健 - 愛相隨



I m marking papers ... while listening to Emil Chao's oldies ... very nice. SO, I search for its old mtv in youtube. There!! The magic of internet and sharing.

I remember his first album which I bought(a cassette as we do not hv CDs then) as I was still in varsity. An original cassette cost me about RM8 then. It is VERY expensive as I have to give tuition and supporting myself during varsity time. Time was hard and harsh then. Anyway, I was introduced to Emil by a course-mate from Johore, Debbie(can't remember much about her, tho. Hehe). She was a big fan of Emil. I was listening to CHINESE songs to learn the language and also, to enjoy music, of coz. In the 80s, English hits were VERY good then. Duran-duran was one of my favourite.

Back to Emil ... one of his first hits was "Chui Zhen De Meng" means "the real dream". Then, followed by "Zhai Ai Wo Ba" mean "Love me again". It was top-10 hits in radio, then. Debbie took the trouble to write the lyrics of the songs in Han-Yu Pin-Yin(my version tho). That is how I started to like Emil's songs.

Today, Debbie should be 43 yrs old mom, somewhere out there. As she is majoring in Chemistry, we parted in 3rd-year, 1988. Shhh ... nothing happen between us. We are not really close, except for EMIL --- her idol, then. So Debbie(Soh? I think)... thanks for the lyrics you translated for me. I kept it well till I shifted to KK here. I left it in KL ... it is lost forever. She is one of the few I talked with during Varsity (1987-1989). I hardly knew more than 10 of them!!

周華健 - 讓我歡喜讓我憂 <--- I sang this song to my wife(gf then) before. Haha



周華健 - 我是真的付出我的愛 (1988) <--- 21 years old!!



Finally, I could find the older hits!! His first album is beautiful. The cassette I bought 21 years ago could no longer play(I think I still have it in one of the boxes!!) but I hv the songs(most his songs!!) in mp3. Hehe

周華健 - 再愛我吧 <--- Please love me again ...



In term of physical beauty, Debbie is very normal(perhaps that is why I m not attracted to her then?) but today I realised that such a nice and kind-hearted lady could make anyone's lives better. Yes, she is also charitable and will actively helped in organising activities in MU. I never bother much about her invitations for the activities or functions. I m too busy with my tuition(never busy studying, tho ... as I never study at all during younger days!!)

周華健 - 最真的夢 <--- The truest dream



周華健 - 不願一個人 <--- Don't wish to be alone



Being 'handicapped' as not handsome and poor, I used to have an insecure feeling that NO lady will ever like to be with me, not even close to me. That was at least what my 2nd aunty always laugh at me. HAHA ... you are so ugly, I wonder who the BLIND girl will even be with you. Furthermore, you stinked. My ego was bruised and queitly, I started to BELIEVE that was a FACT. Hmmm ...

I looked around myself ... well, I have a girl I like very much, my first in my young heart. I wrote her a short love-letter but never have the guts to hand it to her. The secret was exposed when my aunty found it in my school-bag!! I never thought anyone will look into my school bag, ok? I was so so naive ... I cried a lot over it. I was Standard Six, then. Haha ... yeah, a puppy love that lasted till my next crush when I was form 3? BTW, she is Liaw Han Nee(I used to call her honey!!), married when she was 33(10 years ago). She was my play-mate when I was in standard 1 & 2. We do almost everything together till we were 'big' enough to feel shy? Never mind ... hehe

Well, will write an inetresting recall of ALL the girls who came in my life and out ... some lost forever? It will definitely be very loong ...

Again, some idiots(those so-called educated jerks who stalk others blogs) might question my MOTIVES of writing about it. HEY, we don't need motives to write in OUR own personal lives, ok? If I m going to write about sex or put some nudity here(being seen as art?), that is MY CHOICE. And if I want to voice out about my opinions regarding our stupid surroundings, I HAVE MY WAY. Buck off!

Liverpool is OUT

Trial exams is on ... I hv heaps of papers to mark. Next week the juniors will be having exams ... I cant wait for the HOLIDAY. But before that, I need to mark the papers ... sigh.

Classes still on as usual, and I m very busy trading KLSE. It is having a mini-bull run, we called it. So, anything you buy seems to move HIGHER up and you couold easily gain 20-50% of your capital!! Wait ... placing your money in FD giving you 3% at the best. UT or Bonds might give you slightly higher ... and it is in ONE YEAR. I m talking about gaining 50% in ..emm ... one month? I m doing that now. Hehe.

Regina : INVESTING is a life-time education. Once you REALLY know how, you could benefit from it in a long run. Yes, be smart. Be astute. Invest your money and let the money work for you. IF you want to START, I could guide u. Hehe

Anyway, I hv slowly know more and more doctors thru JL. I was introduced to a bone-specialist last Sunday while having breakfast together. Well, at least I know it will benefit me knowing many specialists/doctors? Better watch my diets ... hmm ...

I m trying to console myself as Liverpool exiting CL. They lost to the blue. It was the home-game last week that they lost 1-3. The consolation I could have at the moment is I don't hv to wake up early in the morning to watch the games. zzzz

The plans of shifting of the caampus has been postponed to NOV. So, I hope I could go back to KL in AUG for a week. I need the break badly. The flight might cause me a lot ... but my family have not seen my baby girl. She starts to crawl now. Hehe ... so cute.

Trail Exams and tests

Morning ... i m here early as usual. I no longer wake up 5am(advice from doctor. Hehe) to watch US market but i do late night-out(studying markets with my doctor friend, JL). I could be seen in SMC hanging there almost daily till midnight. Well, i m giving tuition to a doctor friend to see how we could take advantage of the current financial crisis.

I m suppose to print the TRIAL EXAM paper today but I forgot my pen-drive. Hmm ... seriously, I m too busy and sometimes I wish I could take a week off. I wish to go back to KL during the semester break end of this month ... but, I very tied here. I hv tuition classes on(and my students will be sitting for exams soon). I hv many more paperwork to be done --- my work-pass expired and I m not allowed to fly --- I also hv my continuos research paper to be done by AUG2009.

So, these exams weeks for the coming two weeks could give me some break from teach BUT with tonnes of papers to mark!! I rather teach in classroom than sitting here marking paper!! Arrghhh ... I need Vicodin. Haha

Regina : I have been doing my research on "Power and Energy" --- The resources and the alternative since JAN2009 and due around AUG2009. Well, it is for investment purposes. As we all know, markets are bad, economies contracting and financial crisis are around. It is the BEST time to invest(and get rich) ... so, I m going to INVEST in US/HK markets buying Power and Energy stocks at cheap rate now and will keep it for 3-5 yrs. Yes, it will be 10-20 fold of the capital I m investing in. Interesting? Hehe ... For example, I bought a windpower company's stock(named China Windpower) at HKD0.245 x 100,000 units = HKD24.5 k ... and today it is priced at HKD 0.315 x 100,000 units = HKD31.5 k. That is the unrealised profits in ONE MONTH so far, ok? It will be doubled by end of this year ... you should read my Trading Blog regarding how difficult to 'double' our money.

So, my research is basically for HUGE investment, but yes ... I enjoy the knowledge as always. I love Wind-Power as an alternative green energy.

TEH

back to my exams paper ....arrrghh .... Regi, e-mail me coffee, please. Haha

p/s : My son's middle name is "WAN", as I like 'cloud' in this movie!

Weekend : Liverpool vs Fulham

12.15 am : I m waiting for the Liverpool's game while reading(and trying to digest) tonnes of China-biz news. So ... I need some relaxation. Oh yes, I remembered that I do still have a personal blog!! Hehe ... dropping too write a few lines here.

Today, I brought my son to Melinsung's swimming pool. Yeah, he prefer the pool rather than the natural large pool meters away!! Someday, I will try to lure him back to the beach!! Hmm ...

Yeah, I spent my weekend with my family as that give me some joy, after a whole week working!!

Be right back. Watch football, need to focus. haha

1.30 am : First half 0 - 0, hits cross-bar and poles. Should have scored 2 or 3 goals. Very unfortunate ... might be just one of the many draws where they dominate, created chances but failed to score!
