"Stand by me! Nobody knows, the way it's going to be"
~ Oasis, "Stand by Me"
One of these days of perceived hardship,
I realized that everybody is just a walking flaw. But who am I to judge when, I, myself, am perfect at being a flaw-ful person?
Not being able to be there for you all the time has always been my biggest flaw, correcting it in the future is my biggest aim.
However, it's times like these, we found the best of each other.
But no matter what, I'll always stand by you, and nobody will know the way it's going to be.
Have a good day! Don't curi drink coffee again!
From the guy, who rarely write 2 posts in one night.
Failures have always been how life teaches everyone important lessons.
No one escapes,
No matter how flawless you are,
No matter how coward you are to face challenges,
No matter when, past, present, future. And
You, my friend, have now failed.
Everyone have already pre-signed a deal to meet with their failures, even before everything have started.
What matters, is the severity and degree you are bound to fail.
You, my friend, have now failed, mediocrely.
But what matters now is how you gonna pick yourself up?
What happens after you go through
Elisabeth Kübler-Ross' 5 Stages of Grief?
What you gonna do after the Acceptance stage?
You, my friend, have now failed mediocrely, and is going to pick youself up!
You said you have your spirits up, but more deliriously.
You said this time you gonna fight back, but more stronger.
You said this time you gonna work harder, but more smarter.
You, my "friend", are my sister.
To, my Sis, No Pitbull gonna tell you to go back in time now, but do not let your current fighting spirit die off. Everything is going to be alright, rockabye.
NOW, PICK UP THE PIECES! AND RUN LIKE HELL! NOTHINGS STOPPING YOUR GODDAMN WAY NOW!
Nobody can tell you everything is alright better than how Shawn Mullin does it

In appropriate situations, more words just means more value. And I have truly understand that the thought truly counts, especially when you can make others feel happy with just small gestures that might not seem so insignificant at first.

Ooo ya! BY THE WAY!!! Happy 60 days!! Whheee! 2 months and still going!!!
From,
the guy who took the pics of the presents after consuming it, and also after wearing it.
So the last time you were told, 12 days is the idea that I have sold,
Because "it is not as long as 2 weeks, and not as overrated as as one or two weeks."
Well 12 days came, and it really indeed absolutely positively brought me something that was never the same.
Spending time watching all the planes, and also trying to "force-take-off" the planes.
There were so many things for you to describe, but still on the cards you prefer to transcribe,
Putting thoughts into every word, and also putting thoughts into boxes that you later forward.
Was determined for 2 hours tops, just because we do not know how to pull the stops.
Never in this 8 and a half weeks were tainted bad, because you will always be the best I ever had.
Tell me how is a guy suppose to repay? For such a wonderful, memorable and thoughtful birthday.
12 of Feb ain't Valentine's, but is much more memorable than Valentine's
Having a drink in hand, with another hand in hand.
State of conscious or in your sub', reminiscing in front of the Sub.
Everything feels so surreal, but everything IS real.
2 firsts, with one of it being pseudo-first.
Ran back for a 2nd, feels like a second.
Striking all 5 senses, reminding me that I still have my senses.
With the background playing "All Kinds of Time", I'm sure I am going to miss you again like every other time.
I swore it played faster just now than it usually does
By your Valentine who tried to rhyme as much as he can without being cheesy
Everyone is granted more than 1 decisions in the past, and for sure most of us contemplates damn long before making their own choice. And each choice goes down a path, that will provide them a different chance. And different chances results in different outcomes. And different outcomes brings them to a different "Now".
What is more amazing, is how all these past decisions can affect who you have met now.
You might have chosen a different degree, and take the path less taken.
You might have chose to just give up everything, for the sake of others.
You might have chose to not fulfill your attendance.
You might have just chose to live strong and be free, and to realise that how lucky you are to be with the best you ever had.
Or you might have just don't care and start off the conversation with just one word.
Those right decisions could have just bring anyone together even if you were hundreds of kilometers away.
Now that is what I call fate. Something that we tiny humans have control of.

So imma back here again, this time to amuse everyone with my sub-optimal photoshop skillz. Oh, and also to officiate the start of a Movie Poster photoshopping (last one was an Inception poster with myself, as shown in http://reszholve.blogspot.com/2011/05/inszheption.html)
This time with 2 more posters featuring my Pharmacy friends in it.

Some people ponder about the greatest world problems while they are "sittin' on da toilet"; well and I got this awesome time of ponder-ment while waiting for my dinner at a local Char Kuey Tiao stall.
Hypothesis: Char Kuey Tiao is the most complicated food to sell ever. (Hell Yeah I am random, 'cause I think whatever I want! It's world changing goddamnit!)
Think about it, I'm not talking about you having the best style of cooking to serve up a plate of awesomeness, but I am talking about the orders. Why, because the one taking down orders have to understand your options before being able to proceed with your orders:
1. Tauke you want taugeh or bogeh ("no teeth" in hokkien)?
2. You want the "si ham" (cockles) or the no ham (no such thing)? *Most popular question, Highly recommended (like 5-thumbs-up rated) question for the cook
3. Like KFC, the CKT (Acronym la bro, see what I did there?) also has its own "HOT & SPICY" and its non-spicy "ORIGINAL RECIPE"
4. WHAT ARE YOU STILL COMTEMPLATING ON? EGG OR NO EGG?
5. Some people like to complicate stuff, and likes noodles in their Kuey Tiaos.
There, different people different combination. Bare in mind this is no McDonalds, and the stalls don't have Combo A, or B or C.
With that much options to remember, most likely my CKT would still be unwrapped and still be behind a watermark
So 2012 is here and lets summarize this inactive blog, 3 post for 2010 and 9 post for 2011, excellent job to me for still trying to come up with posts to keept this shitty place runnin'!
Okay, my first post of 2012 will be a short-rant-cum-half-assed-review on my recent rrip down to Bali:
1. The view The panaroma is nice get to see terrace paddy fields at Tegalalang, volcano and its crater lake from Kintamani, but not the goddamn beach. (Pics or it didn't happen? not here now bro, not here) IMHO, the best beach I saw so far was Nusa Dua. The one at Sanur is too loaded with tourist with rubbish everywhere; Ketewel is an eye-opener for black sand beaches (due to the volcano); Kuta beach with a long-ass coastline of trash and Kedongongan was like an alternative dumping site.
It's like you walk through it and suddenly you wonder, "where the heck did the beach come from to the middle of the rubbish dump?"
2. Traffic Lots of cars and motorbikes and everything that moves on single-laned 2-way roads that are either pot-holed, obstructed and/or partially destroyed.
Jam till the bikes can't even weave through
3. Super-duper commercialized a) Due to many tourist coming into Bali at a rate of 112423 people per minute (no proper reference), restaurant, shop houses, hotels, massage and spas, pubs and bars can be found jam packed along beaches or anywhere the tourists might go. b) Locals appear at tourist hotspots to sell items ranging from sarongs, small sculptures, baskets and newspapers (which are nicely wrapped in transparent bags, showing the latest frontpage but old content behind the covers). c) Almost everywhere you want to visit requires you to pay a certain amount of entrance fee, especially at temples (with Besakih the worst case scenario)
So would I go back there again? Meh, Nope, not likely in the forseeable future, although with nice places to see and beautiful culture to experience.
From, the guy who came back from a 4-rainyday, 5-rainynight Bali trip. Yes, I admit that I went there at the worst possible season too.
Else, everything is nice:
