gosh! We were braniacs! used to!

i played tic-tac-toe (if thats what you call of a game with 9 drawn boxes and 2 players play with each having own symbol - simple saying a circle or a cross mark, and that the mission is to get a 3-boxes row with all your symbols IN) with my bro last night. and what i just thought is that, we have never been as innocently genius (genius without being realized ;p) as when we were kids.


i could still recall the moments when i was a primary school student, when post exam school days were euphoria-ful days for all of us
(unlike now in college when we were then busy worrying out what we'll be getting for exam results).
Last time in primary school, at the end of the year after exam, some of us will bring some board games, but mostly didn't. what we were obsessed on were the kepong game, tic-tac-toe, and the "name, tempat" game. ala, dont tell me you dont know those games! 

the name tempat game is a game that requires at least 2 players. players are supposed to decide on a specific alphabet for each round and supposed to fill some examples in some columns provided in accordance to the categories. Among the common columns prepared are name, country, food, artist, and bla bla bla (god knows what other creative categories we could think of that time!). i can still recall that at the end of each round, whoever having the same thing filled in their column with another person shall be getting 50 marks while those with no same filling as any of the other players deserve 100 full marks. 

we were  so excited playing those at that point in time. and most importantly, all it costs us are some papers that we can easily tear out from our school exercise books (takpe, dah akhir tahun. tahun depan gune buku baru. hee :D) . can u see it?  we were used of having fun with no cost! but look at us now-, we are turning into a horrible spending monster! we need money to have fun as we grow older. kids are pure genius. on the other hand, when a grown-up thinks of having fun, he wont be thinking of grabbing a paper and a pencil.
EVERYONE, we WERE sheer genius! 

Points on how to improve your life

Not only will it enrich YOUR life, but also that of those around you.

this is what i got from Amal Aiman's blog (and he got from someone else).. neway,from whoever this originates from, thank you! rasa sangat tersepak dengan kenyataan2 di atas especially those bolded. 

an english question

I read an engllish essay question few days ago. It's a debate essay titled "Those who take life so seriously will never get out of it alive". and since then, i cant help to think that I'm a major example to that. wat to do, cant help it thou. i read the Shopaholic&Baby by sophie kinsella . there's a part when the main character, Becky telling her family obstetrician (a male Dr) how she likes his tie and ask where he bought it. and the guy takes that question so seriously that he took long time to think in fact call his wife to ask where he had actually bought it. after all, it was only a rhetorical question by becky. but again, the Dr just cant help it. just like me. at times.

pardon me

pardon me for being a fickle lad
pardon me for thinking that the world revolves around me at times
pardon me for saying what I shouldn't be saying
pardon me if I'm being too tough
pardon me if I'm being too weak
I wish I can be perfect
but as imperfect as I am, I don't deserve to even wish for that
but just so you know, I AM trying
yet, just so i know, mere trying can never be enough.

wish im in renaissance

my lil 7-yrs-old cousin answered this when he was asked of his ambition.

 " I wanna be a doctor for one year and then, a pilot forever. okay, maybe not forever coz i ll die one day. I will become become pilot together with my best friend, san jin. he'll fly the plane in the morning and and ill fly it off at noon ".. 

I am not focusing on the friendship-loyalty he has, but the ambition fact.

 Just think of the present world we are living in- World where a Common chooses what he or she wanna be after completing studies. it tends to be AN ambition rather than more of it.It's all too structured and not flexible, don't you think? 

I cant help to envy those people in the past, when Leonardo da Vincci was not merely an artist, but as multi-talented as he is as an Italian polymath:, sculptor, architect, musician, scientist, mathematician,engineer, inventor, anatomist, geologist, cartographer, botanist and writer. wohh, barely listing his jobs up there made my heart bleeding of jealousy. 


Take a look at Sir Francis Bacon:English philosopher, statesman, scientist, lawyer, jurist and author. A philosopher and a scientist would be two jobs considered as very different from each other nowadays but then in the past, one person stands as both. 


Of course, not to be left unstated is Ibnu Sina or whom the English called as Avicenna who was a polymath of Persian origin and the foremost physician and philosopher of his time. He was also an astronomer, chemist, geologist, Hafiz, Islamic psychologist, Islamic scholar,Islamic theologian, logician, paleontologist, mathematician, Maktab teacher,physicist, poet, and scientist. 


Now, this is what we called 
as real modal insan!

 if only i can be like them. 

Umm ok. i better plan now...first IB, then degree.after completing my medical undergraduate course, i'll need to go for the housemanship. next im taking master, and then,specialise more, then work,  .and EH???? 

wont i be old enough for another job by then??
