To do or die??

Woo hoo!! After much thought, I finally managed to get my death wishlist done....sounds so morbid...haha! Or rather a list of things to do before I die. Not that I'm thinking of dying now but it's a good practice to step back and take a look at what you want to do with your life, what you want to achieve and whether we are going that direction right now. Here's 25 items, well actually there was more but at this point 25 is sufficient. So here goes...

Things to do before I die
Lead as many as possible to heaven...hey since I'm going there, might as well show the way
Fulfill my God-given purpose in life
Leave a legacy
Fall in love unconditionally...to the right man (God needs to help me out here cos I don't trust my heart)
Have my first kiss at the marriage altar
Bungee jumping!!!
Skydiving...people must think I'm an adrenaline junkie
Start an orphanage
Make a difference in someone's life
Take a cruise around the world
Go up in a hot-air balloon
Own a house by the beach and spend time making it into what I want
Write a novel
Paint my self-portrait
Cut my own album
Teach someone illiterate to read
Perform in front of a live audience at MPO...hey, a girl can dream, can't she?
Spend a vacation in an exotic location
Get a degree or PhD...not permanent head damage mind you
Learn how to fly a plane
Publish my own magazine
Get my body into optimum shape
Learn how to write my name in 50 languages...pretty few considering there are about over 6,000 languages in the world
Help make the world a better place for children
Learn to scuba dive at Australia's Great Barrier Reef

Phew!! Looking at the list, I think I'll need two lifetimes to accomplish all that. I don't think I'll be able to do everything...but then again, nothing is impossible with God. After all Life is a dance and God is the Lord of my dance.

Calendar boy

The long queue snaked along the walkway outside Espanda club and it was only 8pm. At the entrance the organisers were busy giving away doorgifts and free drink coupons. Behind the stage, 30 nervous young men were getting ready for the final round of interview. Inside the club, it was already jam packed with people waiting impatiently for the event to start. There was hardly any standing space left and yet people were pushing their way through to get a better view of the stage while the long queue kept getting longer outside. Finally there were lots of cheering and wolf whistles, the young men were coming out to do the catwalk. Dressed in jeans and body hugging white T-shirt with "I'm A Hunk" printed in front, to show off their muscular bodies, all 30 of them looked liked cover-guy models vying for the title of....New Icon/New Tide's latest 12 Hunks of the Year 2005. In between interviews, there was also a special presentation from our Malaysian Idol, Daniel as we...

Why so downcast O my soul?

Recently I seem to be having a few upheavals in my personal relationships and also those around me. Don’t you get the feeling that sometimes months go by without something big happening and all of a sudden it all just comes pouring upon you? Is it me or it is absolutely no fault of mine. *blinks innocently* In the past few weeks, I seem to have upset one of the most patient and sweetest guy I know…though not intentionally. I’ve apologized and tried to make things better but he hasn’t been replying my messages nor picking up my calls. Zip. Nada. Nothing. I don’t know but lately I feel like whatever I say or do, people seems to be reacting negatively or things just blows up in my face. Then my brother did a very good job in making me feel like a failure by letting me know I am not making enough to help with the family finances. It’s bad enough that I am already frustrated with the fact that I do not have the resources to get a degree or get a place of my own… or even my own wheels. Now h...

Death by Suicide

“I’m alive”, thought Veronika. “Everything’s gonna start all over again. I’ll have to stay in here for a while, until they realize that I’m perfectly normal. Then they’ll let me out, and I’ll see the outside world again.” In the second book by Paulo Coelho I have been exploring, “Veronika Decides To Die” talks about a 24 year old Veronika who seems to have everything – youth and beauty, boyfriends and a loving family, a fulfilling job. But something is missing in her life. So, one cold November morning, Veronika decides to die. She takes a handful of sleeping pills, expecting never to wake up again. But she does…in a mental hospital where she is told that she has only days to live. And as she thinks about her situation now that her suicide was unsuccessful, an inner monologue continues on in her head: “Since people always tend to help others-just so that they can feel they are better then they really are-they’ll give me my job back at the library. Since I only take sleeping pil...
