On the very first day of the world, God created the cow.

He said to the cow: "Ah Gu (cow), today I have created you!

Your job is to go to the field with the farmer all day long.
You will provide the energy to pull things!
You will also provide milk for people to drink!
You are to work all day under the sun! In return, you will only eat grass.

For that, you will have a life span of 50 years."
Ah Gu objected."What.. I work all day in the sun and I get only to eat grass!
On top of that, I have to give my milk away!

This is tough and you want me to live 50 years!
I'll take 20 and you can have the remaining 30 years back!" God agreed.

On the next day, God created the dog.

He said to the dog. "Ah Kow (dog), I have created you for a purpose.

You are to sit all day by the door of your master's house!
Should anyone come in, you are to bark at them!
In return, you will eat your master's leftovers.
I'll give you a life span of 20 years."

Ah Kow objected. " What! I have to sit by the door all day and will need to bark at people,and what do I get...LEFTOVERS...
This isn't right, I'll take 10 and you can have the remaining 10 years back!"
God agreed again.

On the third day, God created the monkey.

He said to the monkey. "Lao Kao (monkey), your job is to entertain people.You will make them laugh, act stupid and make faces!You will also do somersaults and swing on trees to amaze them.

In return, you will get to eat bananas and peanuts.
For that, I'll give you 20 years to live."

Naturally the monkey objected."This is ridiculous, I gotta make faces and make people laugh let not evencome to the part about the trees and somersaults.

Tell you what, I'll give 10 years of my life to thank you for my existence and I'll take 10.

What do you think?
God agreed again.

On the fourth day, God created humans.
God said to the man."You are my best piece of work, for that, you will only need to sleep, eat,sleep, play, eat, sleep again and do nothing else.

You will get to eat all the best things and play with the best toys. All you need to do is enjoy allyour life.

For this kinda of life, I'll give you 20 years."Just like the rest, the man objected. "What, all I need to do is relax and enjoy myself and I have only 20 years to live?

Tell you what, you've 30 years back from Ah Gu, 10 years from Ah Kow andanother 10 from Lao Kao and you probably don't know what to do with all those lifes. Why not I take them all and I'll have 70 years to live?"

God being such good natured, agreed with a smile

.....AND THAT IS WHY.....

We eat, sleep, play and enjoy for the first 20 years of our lives when we are growing up.

Work like a cow for the next 30 to raise our family.

Sit outside the door and bark at people for the next 10 when we are retired.

And finally, we make faces and perform monkey tricks to entertain our grandchildren for the final 10 years.

GET IT ?????

newsbyte - Love being young!

I was walking in a bag store this evening at Berjaya Times Square, it's been ages long since I last stepped in that place. There are more stores now, but all as pricely as ever. The salesgirl came over and spoke in Mandarin about how some of the bags are catered just for students and in-house designed too. Like whatever, I don't even understand Mandarin half my life.

Half way through, she asked me if I understand Cantonese. I said, just a little. And she repeated her sales pitch again. Bo-ring. So I told her that I am no longer a student, I am working. And guess what? Watch the scenario below...

Sales girl: These bags are designed in-house to cater students' needs. They are cool to carry.
Me: It's okay, I am not a student. I am working now.
Sales girl: Working? What are you working as? You are a model?

Laugh out loud in my heart - I have no idea why she thinks a fat bum like me can be a model but she looked really sincere in selling me bags for models after that.

Me: No... no... I am an advertiser. I cover interesting stories in mag.
Sales girl: You must be a hardworking person. It's a Sunday and you are still thinking of work while you hang around.
Me: Well, an advertiser has to explore to know more.
Sales girl: Here's our namecard.

I took the name card and smiled to myself. I love being seen as young and at the same time, giving everyone else a 'wow' effect everytime I tell them that I am an advertiser. Afterall, I do cover interesting stories for all the youths to read. Starting a career at the age of 20 is absolutely delicious.

I love the idea the moment I graduated and my parents know that I'll never further my studies anymore. I made it clear. The most, I will only go for self-upgrade course. Nothing more than that.

P/s: I can't believe I actually think about work during the weekend. Do I really love my job, or does it just comes naturally?

News-byte

News-byte from CYBERMATE aka GINA.

It's been finally 2 weeks since I entered the new company. And finally, my PC is back home so you can expect this post to be as long as it is supposed to be.

My CEO asked me how do I find working in his company? If he have asked a week ago, the answer would be "I don't know if I can cope". But since he asked this week, much has changed within me. I am actually enjoying work and I told him so. I told him I am happy working and he laughed at my statement. I guess not many will go around and say that they are happy working, but I am one of the weirdos who do that.

He is right one way or another - I did improved much more than the first week I was at work. The one person who refuse to call companies because of uncertainty, the one person who wouldn't speak louder than a mouse - that person has changed lots. And I can't believe that person is me.

The management team thinks that I am doing an amazing job. Amazing is not the word that I would use to describe it though. I would say that I am proud that I can actually do what I am doing at work - calling big Clients, getting appointments and permissions, obtaining the rights to use images and all that. It's so not me. I am finally talking more than writing at work. Haha! I call that BIG ACHIEVEMENTS!

Happy Pill 1 - I am able to finish all the work I am supposed to.
Happy Pill 2 - I am actually calling big companies to talk to them.
Happy Pill 3 - My boss is happy with my progress and work.
Happy Pill 4 - Work is no longer routine and boring, but different and interesting.
Happy Pill 5 - I found a friend who is willing to sponsor a website for me. I can finally have a website of my own, without all those irritating ads.

It's just such a happy day, isn't it? And I just realise how proud I am of myself.

A Student's Prayer (Joke)

"Now I lay me down to rest, And hope to pass tomorrow's test. If I should die before I wake, That's one less test I have to take."

Yo guys!

Will be leaving for Singapore soon, all alone on the long bus trip. Guess I needed a holiday but this trip ain't going to be one. It's going to be a fast, hectic, running errands of visiting people trip. Not much of a rest there, except for those lonely hours on the bus. And maybe I needed that time off as well.

Anyway, just a friendly reminder... Prayer is more than talking WITH God, not talking to God. It's about communicating with your Loved One up there in heaven. And if you can't find time for prayer, try to remember this parable I have to share about my very own experience.

"If you can sacrifice and spend time with your loved ones, your friends and family - going to the extend to give that extra time to them when you are superb busy... what more can you do to improve your relationship with God? If keeping in touch with your boyfriend/girlfriend on a daily basis is important, what more keeping in touch with God all the time?"

I'll leave you guys to think of my words. Meanwhile, SINGAPORE... HERE I COME!

My First Time

adapted fr: Bonnie

It was my first time ever

And I'll never forget

I'd do it again

Without a single regret.

The sky was dark

The moon was high

We were all alone

Just ... and I.

Her hair was soft

Her eyes were blue

I knew just what

She wanted to do.

Her skin so soft

Her legs so fine

I ran my fingers

Down her spine.

I didn't know how

But I tried my best

I started by placing

My hands on her breast.

I remember my fear

My fast beating heart

But slowly she spread

Her legs apart.

And when I did it

I felt no shame

All at once

The white stuff came.

At last it's finished

It's all over now

My first time ever

At
