善有善报

从小,大人,老师,课本上的教学都教导我们多做善事,因为善有善报。

不少的童话故事,甚至部分的文艺小说也都让好心人有好下场。

只是,现实生活中有多少人真地相信善有善报呢?

我本身不太相信,但我做善事,因为我认为做善事不为了有什么善报。(听起来好象说到自己很伟大般,也没有啦。)

上个周五,我和男友约了下班后在港湾中心见面兼吃晚餐。因为当天带了些蛮重的东西,吃过晚餐后我们就决定早点回家早点休息。

我俩进了地铁找到两个空位就坐了下来。地铁刚刚开启,男友接到电话,致电的是我的表哥。我这表哥也在新加坡做工,偶尔会约出来吃夜宵。不过奇怪的是为什么他不打我手机反而找我的男友呢?不理吧!

可是,听男友通话的语气,表情和内容,表哥不像是在约我们吃夜宵。 到了欧南园站(我们上地铁后的第一站),还没挂电的男友就示意要我们出地铁。这下可慌了,到底是什么事情呢?很自然反应的,我尝试从背包里早我的手机。可是,手机不见了。

原来,有人检到了我的手机交了给港湾中心的守护员。守护员用我的手机拨了电话给表哥的女友,表哥就通知男友此事。

真是谢天谢地的,一路回去港湾站的路程我不停在想,要是真的不见了手机该怎么好。还好见到我的手机的人没有私下占为己有。很快的,我联想回曾经我检到一部蛮贵的手机,而我当时第一个想到的不是怎么占为己有,而是可以如何找到主人把手机还他。突然间,我就很庆幸地我当时是这么做的。虽然不太有根据,但却让我相信真的是有善有善报的。

我衷心地谢谢那路不拾遗的好心人。愿大家以后一起多做善事吧。;)

Bedtime Stories

Yesterday, HC and I went out early to ICA to transfer my re-entry permit to my new passport. As we will be meeting friends for a birthday celebration in the evening, it would be a bit troublesome and wasting time if we go back and come out again. Thus, we decided to have a whole day out on Saturday.

From Lavender we went to Bugis to have our nice breakfast, a very important meal of the day. Hehe.. we were just too hungry already and need some input to our stomach. I ordered a breakfast set at J.Co, 2 doughnut + 1 hot tea.

After the breakfast, we took a bus to Singapura Plaza to watch our first movie in year 2009. The lucky movie which we picked as our first movie is "Bed time stories".
This movie is about a pair of brother sister who need to be taken care by their uncle for a week. Their uncle, who work in a hotel which was once belong to his father, has never met with them for years. He has no idea how to take care of them when he hardly can communicate with them. But for his sister, he have to.

As the kids need to study in the daytime, this uncle just need to take care of the night time part. In the kids' house, their mother (someone who is very health conscious-both physical and mental) do not buy them a tv for the reason that tv will rot their mind. Thus, that leave this uncle no other entertainment to pass time with the kids than ask them to go to bed.

In this movie, the kids need some bedtime stories before sleep. The uncle then self-made some interesting real life related stories to them with them adding some ideas to the ending which they prefer. The miracle things happen on the next day where all the additional part by the kids come true. This is kind of like miracle come true type of movie as expected from walt disney.

In the real world, it sound ridiculous to know or see this kind of things happen. But somehow, it seems happen to hc and me yesteray in the cinema hall where we watched this movie "Bedtime stories".

Firstly, there were a chinese couple who came in and the girl found out that their seat are just next to me. The girl then chose to sit at the seat which further from me with another two more empty seats on the left. It's ok for me that she chose not to sit beside me. But I found it funny that the reason she wanted to sit on the further seat is because she do not want to sit with strangers. Don't she know that there is still posibility that the two empty seats on the left could be taken also? HC and I were then saying that let's an indian (no offend, just take a another race) took the seat next to her. Few minutes later, two indians came in. They then sat on the two empty seats next to her.

Then, when the screen started to show something, it seems that the quality of the display was not good. The staff of the cinema immediately try to solve it after someone went to make a complain. An announcement was made regarding the problem and all the people inside the cinema have to wait and start chit-chating with their accompanion. So do HC and I. Hehe... We were discussing about will the cinema give everyone free popcorn or maybe a complementary ticket voucher as compensation. Nothing happen untill the end of the show. There were two staff standing at the exit door giving away complementary movie pass for each of us in that cinema halls.

Haha.. it seems like miracle do happen once a while. Hehe...

2008 vs 2009

It's already the 11th day of 2009. And now only I started to write this post talking about my 2008. From here, I guess you guys can know, I was defeated by my laziness badly in 2008. And it seems the beginning of 2009 is still the same.

As I said, I was very lazy in 2008, I hope I can defeat my laziness in 2009.

I wasn't really know my direction in 2008. I need to have a clearer direction and plans for my 2009.

I've tried a few new things in 2008. I put on the braces to become iron teeth lady in Sep, I perm my hair for the first time on the very last day of year 2008 and etc (can't remember others right now). What other new things will I try in year 2009? First in my list is mount Kinabalu hiking in June.

I started my marathon fever with some of my friends here since year 2007. In year 2008, I joined two so called big scale marathon activities, Nike Human Race-10km and also Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon 2008-half marathon (21km). In year 2009, I'll challenge myself in the Adidas Sundown Marathon 2009-full marathon (42.195km).

After grad from JSHS till 2008, I've seldom contacted to some of my Sec School friends. So sorry to all of you there. I guess I'll try my best to keep in touch with you all more start from this new year of 2009.

Ever started working, I also started to lost track on my Uni friends' news. Another group of people which I need to apologize to. Let's have more outing during the weekends or some drinking and chit-chatting after work this year.

Up till year 2008, I was always showing my temper to my family and luckily I was forgiven for that everytime. I love you all. Thanks for forgiving me for being rude. Hope that I can be better in controlling my emotion in year 2009.

2008 vs 2009, wish that 2009 will be better than 2008. Lastly, happy new year to all of you. ;)
