TOKYO | Abstract One

Walking on the busy street of Tokyo,
Looking up high and down low,
Still wandering where to go,
Yet the mind can't get off the photo...


The Sign On The Stairs

Having a quick stare,
With the wind blowing over my hair,
And the eyes fencing a glare,
There it was The Sign On The Stairs....



Closed For The Day

Looking at the sculpture made of clay,
Painted with the colour of shade of greys,
Wanted to look thru and touch the displays
but what can one do if it's Closed For The Day....

RANDOM | Of Blue Glasses

Of blue glasses and blue sky
Are the glasses "colourless" and the colour is just a mere reflection from the sky?
Or,
Or the glasses are really blue?

In fact, it does not really matter;
As what matter most are the end product.

Might be true to human as well,
Does not really matter how many A's you got during your lower classes,
Nor how many distinctions whilst in secondary years;
Or even how many O's and A's you manage to grab during your upper secondary.

At the end of the day, what type of Job you are doing to earn your living.
Will it be the one who design the "blue glasses"?
Or will it be the one who build the "blue-glassed structure"?
Or the one who cleans the glasses?
Or just a passer-by who admire the beauty of the "blue-glasses" and wanted to achieve such feat?
Or perhaps, just someone who took photo of the so called "blue-glasses" then upload and made a poem (if that is what you called) out of it, out of the blue???

So it is up to you, to think of what you wanna be;
We can only plan but our actually destiny and faith, that is not for us to decide.

.. some find it fulfilling ...
.. some find it sad.....

.. with that .. I'll leave you with these to think about ...

.............One of the secrets of a long and fruitful life is .........to forgive everybody everything every night before you go to bed......

.........The best teacher is ...........one who suggests rather than dogmatizes, and inspires his listener with the wish to teach himself.........

.........We could learn a lot from Crayons:........ Some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, while others bright, some have weird names, .........but we have to learn how to live in the same box

........You are only young once, but you can stay immature indefinitely...........

........It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return,............ but what is the most painful is to love someone and never finding the courage to let the person know how you feel..........

.........it is much easier to suggest solutions when you know nothing about the problem............

........Happiness will never come to those who fail to appreciate what they already have..........

...............Don't mind criticism. ............If it is untrue, disregard it. If it is unfair, keep from irritation. It if is ignorant, smile. If it is justified, learn from it...........

............Every morning you are handed 24 golden hours............. They are one of the few things in this world that you get free of charge.............. If you had all the money in the world, you couldn't buy an extra hour. .....................What will you do with this priceless treasure?...................... Remember, you must use it, as it is given only once. .............Once wasted you cannot get it back.........

RANDOM | The Fluffy Pillows ....

..... Before I sleep ........and after I wake up ..............and all the hours in between ... you occupy my mind............... every moment of the day you are in my thoughts............ I miss you.....
....... my pillows.......

.........Happiness is ............falling asleep next to you .................and waking up ...........thinking.......... I'm still in my dreams...........

..............I went to sleep last night........... with a smile ................because I knew ............I'd be dreaming of you ......... but I woke up this morning............ with a smile ................ because you weren't a dream....................

........I wanna go to sleep at night............. wake up every day............. and breathe ..........knowing you are truly mine...........

... a true friend is... someone who shake who from your sleeping soul .....

........Why do we close our eyes when ............. we sleep, .................. when we cry, .................. when we imagine, ..................when we kiss, .....................when we pray? ...................Because, ..........the most beautiful things in the world............. can not be seen with your eyes............... it must be felt with your heart.................


.... and oh yea ....

.........always wear cute pajamas to sleep........... you never know who you'll meet in your dreams......... ;)

BANGKOK | Let's Dine Outside ...

Let's Dine Outside ....

... the evening have just crept in .... the lightings begin to glow in romance......
....... the tables have just been set .... the smell of dinner slowly simmering the air ......
........ the sound of the boats.. on the river besides.......... filled the ears with rythmic melodies ....
.... the stars twinkling high above... as if cheering the evening with beautiful light play....
.... so let's not waste the lovely evening ..... let the gentle wind caresses our face .....
.... let's dine outside ....

GF

A Waitress, ready to serve at one of the exclusive Alfresco dinings, along the Chao Praya River, Bangkok, Thailand. Such scene is very common at most developed countries, enjoying your cuisine and balancing with the natural surrounding.

In Brunei, the nearest to this scene is at KFC (Kianggeh Food Centre), where u can experience the full view of the Water Village along the Brunei River.

... perhaps... they should do one along the newly renovated water front in Gadong .....

TRAVEL | The Beach | The One With The Shadow ...

.. walking along the soft sandy beach ...
.... feeling the cool sea breeze brushing pass your face .....
... glancing the golden reflection of the glittering ocean ....
..... hearing the soothing rhyme of the ocean waves ....... can very calming ....

.. and if u cannot get enuff of it, one can climb up one of the tower houses along the beach..... to enjoy the magnificient view of where the beach meets the ocean ... as far as the eyes can see...

.... and while on the tower house ... saw this interesting scene .... with the sun beginning to set ... as the shadow becomes longer ... and the camera lens becoming longer as well ... hmmmm... eh no ... the lens should be shorter .. otherwise can't get a wider view .... hence... I manage to share u this moment ....

ABSTRACTS | Aying Mengalir Di Batu ...

... Air Mengalir Di Batu ...

.. Air ...

.. hembusan bayu membelai lembut dedaun layu ...
... gemersik deruman air yang mengalir ... memecah keheningan pagi ....
.... aliran air yang mengalir ... meraba-raba dicelah kehangatan batu...
.. seumpamanya memberikan ketenangan ...
..... membersihkan dedebu yang melekat utuh di atas batu ....

.. namun air masih mengalir tanpa menghiraukan waktu ....
.... mungkin waktu mengetahui makna yang tersirat dan tersurat dibalik aliran air di atas batu ...
