NOT A BIG FUSS

Distance. Only physical. Nothing much. Not a big fuss. 

Grades. Only divides. From one another. Not a big deal.

Encountering those gap, it shows the lions and a cubs, top-dog and under-dog. 

Some people thought they couldn't live in distance, away from others whose match. They only think that way. They put on all their will and effort to closed the margin, just to be associated. The faith that they should posses evaporates, deteriorates, timely. They won't accept the fact that what they have planned is to shallow compared to what is in-line by the Almighty. They should have known that, His promise is true. His promise is great. If only they knew. In circumstances, things are made a secret. And when the secret unveil, they'll be thankful. Maybe. Not a big fuss.

When it comes to grades, everyone wants to be on top. Then who should filled up down below? No one. If a structure without a solid base, it will collapse. Some samples don't mind carrying water bottles and training balls just to see others hits it right, and some just plain don't care. No one wants to do that. But a true champions, "Always want the ball (responsibility, at any levels)". It does, "Grades creates divides". Its not a big deal.

The truth, a little distance kept you on your feet, always ready to break forward or rundown defending and high grades let you see the sea that open for opportunities and repairs. 

Great man deals with this blindfolded. Don't have to be told. Comfort zone is not created for you, its something for you to create, in fact, creates. Grow up. 

Don't Judge A Book By Its Cover, Penang.

Its just a cause for celebration, end of the year, my wife's birthday and new year 2013, so Penang it is. I've been here several times, but not as feast-full as this time. Its heaven, some says, to eat or its a wasteful visit. Its not really encouraging, at first, until you've sits, and enjoy, then you'll be grateful you've been there in your life. 

Great thing doesn't really comes in good packages. If it is, I won't get a taste of Transfer St. Roti Canai. Yes. Its Heaven. Why? I haven't found that anywhere else in this peninsular. No. This addiction should be in the menu for all Mapley's in the world. Its not because of the great Roti Canai, its simply because of its soup. Kuah Kari Dhal + Ayam / Daging / Kambing + Sambal + Ganja kot = Greatness. 

Roti Canai Kari Dhal Sambal Ayam Jalan Transfer, Penang 

The stall located just by the road side. Quite dangerous, yet the crowd loves it. This crowd actually drive us to get a taste. Its like any other Malaysian-like habit, when there is 1 car parked at a sign that tells you not to park, then crowd follows ignoring the sign. Simple rules. But this time, you get a stomach-full, not a ticket-fool! 

Another thing, we always heard of people not to believes in banners which claim that their good is the best, is awesome, but in Penang, you'll regret it if you don't. 

Restoran Yunus Khan

I saw this and it tickles me, how silly a person would be just to ate instant noodle after crossing 3 states? Therefore, I took this picture to tell the world that this is ridiculous statement - Special Food : Maggi Goreng & Maggi Goreng Tom Yam. It is a disaster to know that this Yunus Khan is making the best Maggi Goreng & Maggi Goreng Tom Yam IN THE WORLD! I wouldn't have known if we didn't stop by to visit some friends that are locals. It was a mistake to stop by actually. Now, I'm haunted and feel of unease with regret. I'll ate you soon when I'm there, later this year.

As we all know, Penang is Chinese-led states in Malaysia, and as far as I'm concerned, the states is filled with Chinese. Not to mentioned, the local delicacies has blend with Chinese taste. 

Kue Tiaw Th'ng & Set Cucur

This is how I get my first Kue Tiaw Th'ng. I have this just because of its name, don't know where it came from, yet the taste not like its the only Th'ng. 

Plenty of others, I just couldn't named it. Just go to Penang, its a food tour. And please be sure, don't underestimate the location to eat, it might just be the BEST IN THE WORLD! And watch out. You might just gained plenty of weight. If not, it's a failed journey. Have a taste of everything. Take extra cautious that it is Halalan Toiyiban.

It will be great!

Spark

Every time her eyes meets mine, I can see courage, hard fought to belief, that future is at stake, happiness to be destined, alongside me. Is this torture? I believe its not. Its a test of resilient. Just in case we hit rock bottom, there's always path hidden underneath the rockiness. I hope...i don't want to..i want to believe, that this is the right way. I wont set any bar, but for certain, my heart sparkling, and i know, when it does, I could conquer this mountain obstacle. Happy it is, happy it will then. There are no great life to be told without any failure, there aren't. But something for certain, the effort that been put in is all that matters, the end result could differ. I'm loving it, i'm loving you, and if there's any let down, i'm not saying that I want it, but i'm just telling that i'm all ready to face it, which makes me very gentle in touching the skin so that no damage that cause bleeding.

Sekali air bah, sekali pantai berubah

Once upon a time a daughter complained to her father that her life was miserable and that she didn't know how she was going to make it.

She was tired of fighting and struggling all the time. It seemed just as one problem was solved, another one soon followed.

Her father, a chef, took her to the kitchen. He filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire.

Once the three pots began to boil, he placed potatoes in one pot, eggs in the second pot and ground coffee beans in the third pot.

He then let them sit and boil, without saying a word to his daughter. The daughter, moaned and impatiently waited, wondering what he was doing.

After twenty minutes he turned off the burners. He took the potatoes out of the pot and placed them in a bowl. He pulled the eggs out and placed them in a bowl. He then ladled the coffee out and placed it in a cup.

Turning to her, he asked. "Daughter, what do you see?" "Potatoes, eggs and coffee," she hastily replied.

"Look closer", he said, "and touch the potatoes." She did and noted that they were soft.

He then asked her to take an egg and break it. After pulling off the shell, she observed the hard-boiled egg.

Finally, he asked her to sip the coffee. Its rich aroma brought a smile to her face.

"Father, what does this mean?" she asked.

He then explained that the potatoes, the eggs and coffee beans had each faced the same adversity-the boiling water. However, each one reacted differently. The potato went in strong, hard and unrelenting, but in boiling water, it became soft and weak.

The egg was fragile, with the thin outer shell protecting its liquid interior until it was put in the boiling water. Then the inside of the egg became hard.

However, the ground coffee beans were unique. After they were exposed to the boiling water, they changed the water and created something new.

"Which one are you?" he asked his daughter. "When adversity knocks on your door, how do you respond? Are you a potato, an egg, or a coffee bean?"

In life, things happen around us, things happen to us, but the only thing that truly matters is what happens within us.

Which one are you? When problems come (and they will) how will we react? Will they make us weak, hard hearted or will they cause us to change into something worthwhile?

Ummu Hani

I didn't looked at her, everyone knew her traits. But i look from a different perspectives. Her Father. His shouting and crying so bad. His daughter is physically challenged from that on. Its dead touching to see a man cried that hard. Is it normal? Why not her mother's the one who's shouting around like crazy? Why should be him? Some man, huh? This guy really focusing on his family 'future' until he neglected the needs of his daughter when she's in pain. He took it lightly. This is the result. All work and no fun. He should be sorry and been put at blame of the lost of her daughter eyesight. Because he takes thing lightly. Where he shouldn't. He should bring her for check up earlier. Not after she's fainted. Seriously man, don't take anything lightly of your love ones. Or end up losing. That's cry of a looser. What a pity. And, I think all men, if not all, small portion of it, takes ting lightly, like him, like me. Those your loves need concerned, need touch, need care, not only stability, not only afford-ability. Future can wait, current need to take seriously too.
