Abe frustrated with technologies!

Now i realize how much we depend on technologies..

This dependency really make our works much easier and fast..

All right, i must admit, i really need my computer and a decent reliable internet connectivity..

Sometimes when im out of touch with internet, i felt really lost and 'disconnected'

Yesterday and today, my IPAQ screwed up..

First: it automatically, without my conscent, without my command, reformatted itself..

WHAT? HOW CAN THIS BE?

implications: I lost all my contact numbers, I lost all my SMSes, I lost all my diary of appointments, All my presettings gone..

2nd: Just now, i do not know wht i have done, the sim card locked itself.. NO PHONE to use tonight i guess...

Implication:- NO call and SMS for the time being, have to trouble someone to bring me to the M*XiS Centre to get it fix, time for Japanese revision gone..(jz pretend that i do a lot of revision)

Nonetheless, I think i still need these technologies so much. As my mentor said, we are the technology citizen, the olden generations are the digital immigrants. Quite true.

Somehow are we controlling them or our life are being controlled?

I wonder..

Abe got a pet!

Technology sometimes makes me think a lot of things..
We used to have pets...i mean real pets where u can touch and play with it physically..
Now we no longer need to worry about buying food, cleaning up poops and be frustraed if it makes ur place dirty or messy.
Now what the world have is virtual pets. Things that only exists in the box of your monitor.
It doesnt cost that much..(jz need to pay for electric and internet)


Interjection:-

This reminds me of my conversation with a UPM friend. It seems they can only only in their dormitory for 40 hours per week.. WHAT?
walauwei! (an expression) What sort of university is that? restricting the flow of information? OBSELETE! PRIMITIVE! I felt sorry for UPM.. i dont mean to condemn. Just my own selfish thoughts. Dont need to buy in for that..

I myself now have a pet...a virtual wan..somehow it is interesting..
Though some still prefer physical pets.
Reflecting, sometime i felt disgusted where pets get better treatment then people.
I mean, some pets eat foods that are far more expensive and nutritious than people.
Hey...i am saying, people in some part of the world are fighting for food..

WHAT HAS BECOME OF OUR EARTH?

Nevertheless, this is still their choice. If you are one of them, i apologize.
Social justice is something always concerns me. Be thankful, share your love.

Well here is my pet..

Is a she.. Her name is Ah Bee...she is so cute and with attitude...Love it!
She is only available in Facebook...

Who Am I..

This is gonna 'shoo' a lot of my blog readers...i know but still ill post it..
Will be back with more about my experience soon. Once i get over with my emo'ness'

Who am I to seek..
So undeservingly to receive..
Who am I to receive..
So deseperately want it..
Who am I to want it..
So hoping to taste it..
Who am I to taste it..
So far away from you..
Who am I to expect from you..
So insignificant to be someone..
Who am I to be someone..
So unworthy am I..
Remain the same..
Remain to be still..
Looking from afar..
Looking for a rainbow..
Sign of greatness..
Hoping nothing..

Tree..

After coming back from Mc Donalds....back with popiah tat i made..

this is a story of a tree:-

A Tree.

One of the most wonderful creation of God.
It is a shelter from rain.

It is a shade from the scorching sun.

It is a place to seek peace.

It is a place sit down and chill.

It is a place where you can chat.

It does not answer nor complains.

It listens attentively.

Grieve as you grieve.

Smile as you smile.

Cry as you cry.

Giving safe refuge when storms hit.

Through seasons, unchanged.

Leaves whitter, grows again ever lush.

It extends it's branches and leaves wide. The shades grow bigger.

Roots drive down the earth, hanging on to the ground where nutrient is absorbed.
When seasons comes, it bears fruit.

Labour for time producing fruits.

Fruits fell, hoping giving nourishment to one.

Once bitten, turns away.

Leaving.. neglected...

Still ever unchanging, roots further stregthens it.

Will it fruit again, definitely every season, untiring.

Standing alone for few more seasons.

With birds, insects and grass only partners.

Ground as solid foundation.

Awaiting one day, the day, that day.

Flowers blooming whitters not.

PlasticForum@USM.. feelings..

Finally the much thought and prepared PlasticForum@USM is finally in place.
Big crowd? hmmmm perhaps. Good response.. Certainly I heard a lot from the Plastic Manufacture Association, 'defending' their industry i suppose. No offend at all. Everyone has an equal space to voice.

As for me, well.. i didn't throw the question i had in mind at first.. because the direction of the talks seems going to the other side. One thing learn.. why do we always put responsibility to other people? Can't we just take up the initiative to be responsible? Manufacturer put it to the government, the government blame the rakyat (people), the rakyat say is the industry should stop producing, the industry say they campaigned, but rakyat are ignorant, round and round in orbits..
BREAK THE CHAIN OF CYCLE!

Overall, congratulations to BPLK and Dr Lee for a great event. Hope it enlightens those who attended. By the way, shopped at Tesco, surpringsingly, they switched back to degradeble plastic bags.. hmmmm perhaps USM's invitation rings a bell? maybe...perhaps...

(wait for the pictures to be uploaded, stay tuned)

--end of working blog---
--start personal blog--

Fake it? Hide it? or Forget about it? Difficult to answer eh... well perhaps none of it is the answer, or maybe combination of all these is the answer.
Sometimes dealing with your own feelings makes u go a bit cuckoo..
But i know I'm good sometimes in these 3 areas. At the end, bear it on my own..Im sure i can do it another time.. i have been through this. Is nothing different. Painful? perhaps. Dissapointment? certainly. Can u do something about it? nothing.
All I can say to other is...I'M OK.........I'LL BE OK...i know who is my tower of strength..
