BEAUTY or the BEAST?

CHOOSE ~ Beauty or the beast? I have asked this Question yesterday....


Explanation: If you were to choose between being a beauty with poor financial background or being a wealthy beast, which one would u choose to be?

However, There are many other factors (BUT) with each option!!


A friend of mine answered:

She choose wealthy beast, thinking that she could go for a plastic surgery to make her beautiful instead with the wealth. BUT, what if there is no plastic surgery in this world (this's an imaginary situation; consider being in the 60s).

Then, She changed to choose Poor Beauty, explaining that: "Well, I can work hard to gain the success and wealth with my own hands." BUT what if your IQ is only 100 or less, meaning that you don't have the smart brain to climb to the top, easy to be tricked and have to work hard everyday - around the clock. With such IQ, position of manager will not be obtained forever!

After that, she answered, perhaps she can court some rich guys with her beauty. Thus, she becomes a wealthy person too, and she doesnt have to work hard - day and night. BUT, what if the world is realistic and materialistic. Guys won't even want to have a look at poor girls. Ok, even if the guys looked and fell in love with the girl, the guy's grandparents or parents would object such marriage (with poor girls). This is actually true, especially in the past. As a result, she will not be able to get rich through marriage.

The final choice is....Wealthy beast!! "Well, ugly lah, who cares. As long as I don't have to work so hard." Being wealthy can enjoy lifestyle that a poor with IQ 100 can never even dream of. BUT, The love life will be a disaster. Guys may approach just because you are rich, not liking you from the true heart (of course la, with a beast-like face).



Haha, when I was asked the same question, I can't even choose between these two options!! Grrr....So if you are asked this question, what will you choose, BEAUTY or the BEAST???

X-mas Time!

Christmas is for love. It is for joy, for giving and sharing, for laughter, for reuniting with family and friends, for tinsel and brightly decorated packages.

But mostly, Christmas is for love. I had not believed this until a small elf-like student with wide-eyed innocent eyes and soft rosy cheeks gave me a wondrous gift one Christmas.

“Happy Christmas” is what I chose to say But other greetings are used for the day By one and all during the festive season And foreign languages are the reason.

There's "Frolyke Kerstfeest" or "Joyoo Noel", "Felleeth Navidad", even "Glaydlig Yool", "Kalla Kristoogenna", "Boo-on Natarlee" ,"Boas Festas" or "Sheng Dan Kwhy Lee".

You could say "Frerlicker Vine-akten" Or maybe "Roshdesrom Kristovim", then So you can say it in very many ways. But please never say “Happy Holidays”.

> Anime Time <

Been boring for the past week due to the Holidays. So, I go search my bro's room for nice movie or drama series to see....And i found one that is very much different from the others (chinese & english) movies.... -> ANIME!!

Can't believe my bro bought an anime as i never see him watch any before for years. Think the latest should be dragonball 10+ years ago. Hmm..the anime must be great as he bought it. So, I started watching it, and it turn out to be VERY NICE! Oh ya, i haven't mention about the name of the anime yet...it's BLEACH. I bet many have seen it before long long ago, and i just started watching it. Oh, what an outdated person i am!!

The story was nice and so are some of the characters...Kurosaki Ichigo, Kuchiki Byakuya (6th Captain), Ishida Uryuu, Hitsugaya Toushiro(10th Captain)...

Been rushing through 80+ episodes in 10 days, watching every midnights till morning. It's just too nice to watch.. oh.. but i only got until 90+ episodes. And i have finished it. No more to watch. Have to find other movies to watch...

The First time We Met

I think back to the times we first met…

Teresa: I think we were in primary 5 when we first met; at Ms. Ng tuition place. That’s the only time I remember seeing u first time. I hardly remember what did we talk about that time. But there’s one thing I remember: I always *Cubit* your legs with my legs. Haha. Don’t be mad, because you are sitting just right in front of me and I felt so bored that time. I also *Cubit* Vivian’s as she sat just beside you most of the time. Hehe. I remember you two moving both legs away when I was trying to do so, but still can’t avoid me. HAHAHA. And one time Ms. Ng even caught me doing so, but didnt scold me, just continue teaching. Haha.

Therese, Ru Bin, Seng Kheng: Erm, didn’t quite remember how i first meet u guys but I am 100% sure we met in kindergaten or Primary level in Chung Hua Middle School. I was way~ too young to remember how I met u guys. Unless I had VERY VERY good memory, maybe I can remember the details. But too bad I didn’t. :P

Sharon C.: I remember very clearly I met u in kindergarten in Chung Hua. We were best friends ever since that time, I think. Split into different class in primary 2 and We used to give letters or may I just call them ‘Papers’. Haha. The content was so funny I can’t mention it out here.

Shahril, Peter: Forget how I meet u guys too. But I think it was after SMSA last year, after I hang out with the gangs. Think I heard about Peter’s name before from the others earlier but never get to see him in person until last year. As for Shahril, I think I knew him only early this year around chinese new year. Hmm...

Soo Hui: Oh ~ I remember clearly how I meet this girl here. She approached me early in the morning, I think, first day of Form 6 in SMSA. We were in Art room waiting for Ms. Emisa. Erm..I Guess so. Then, she came and introduce herself to me. “Hi, I am Soo hui” she said. I replied by saying my own name. Nice to meet you and so on… Then she said: “You look so familiar, like I saw u before.” I agreed. I also have the same feelings that I met her before although didn’t quite remember how and when. Then, we are good friends after that. I remembered well because hardly could someone approached me like this *unexpectedly*. :P

Michelle, Hazwan: Think we first met in SMSA. Forget how but should be in GP class for Michelle and in Biz class for Hazwan. Michelle: Think we first talk when we were in group discussion for GP. Found that u know a lot about global issues. Hardly hardly talk to hazwan in biz class cause he sat so far away and wasn’t close to him that time.

THE TEST

Three men who were lost in the forest were captured by cannibals. The cannibal king told the prisoners that they could live if they pass a trial. The first step of the trial was to go to the forest and get ten pieces of the same kind of fruit. So all three men went separate ways to gather fruits.

The first one came back and said to the king, "I brought ten apples." The king then explained the trial to him. "You have to shove the fruits up your butt without any expression on your face or you'll be eaten." The first apple went in... but on the second one he winced out in pain, so he was killed.

The second one arrived and showed the king ten berries. When the king explained the trial to him he thought to himself that this should be easy. 1...2...3...4...5...6...7...8... and on the ninth berry he burst out in laughter and was killed. Erm ... WHY??

The Answer:

The first guy and the second guy met in heaven. The first one asked, "Why did you laugh, you almost got away with it?" The second one replied, "I couldn't help it, I saw the third guy coming with pineapples."

- He laughed because was thinking "HOW was he(the third guy) going to ... with PINEAPPLES? Thinking surely he was going to be killed!" then He laughed.. causing his own Death!!> What a stupid guy! -

My son's more successful than yours

Four men got together to play golf one sunny morning. As they were heading out to the course, one of them was detained by a phone call. The other three were discussing their children while walking to the first tee.

"My son," said one proudly, "has made quite a name for himself in the home building industry. He began as a carpenter, but now owns his own design and construction firm. He's so successful, in fact in the last year he was able to give a good friend a brand new home as a gift."

The second man, not to be outdone, boasts how his son began his career as a car salesman, but now owns a multi-line dealership. "He's so successful, in fact, in the last six months he gave a friend two brand new cars as a gift."

The third man brags that his son has worked his way up through a stock brokerage firm, and has become so successful that in the last few weeks has given a good friend a large stock portfolio as a gift.

As the fourth man arrives at the tee box, the three smugly tell him that they have been discussing how successful their progeny are, and ask what line of work his son is in.
"To tell the truth, I'm not very pleased how my son has turned out," he replies. "For fifteen years, he's been a hairdresser, and I've just recently discovered he's gay."

As the other three recoil in horror, he continues, "but on the bright side, he must be good at what he does, because his last three boyfriends have given him a brand new house, two new cars, and a big stock portfolio."

- Wah, The three of them must be so embarrassed as the "three boyfriends" are their sons & Are Gays!! -

PAY ATTENTION


First-year students at Med School were receiving their first anatomy class with a real dead human body. They all gathered around the surgery table with the body covered with a white sheet.

The professor started the class by telling them, "In medicine, it is necessary to have 2 important qualities as a doctor. The first is that you not be disgusted by anything involving the human body." For an example, the Professor pulled back the sheet, stuck his finger in the butt of the corpse, withdrew it and stuck his finger in his mouth.

"Go ahead and do the same thing,"! he told his students. The students freaked out, hesitated for several minutes, but eventually took turns sticking a finger in the butt of the dead body and sucking on it.

When everyone had finished, the Professor looked at them and told them, "The second most important quality is observation. I stuck in my middle finger and sucked on my index finger. Now learn to pay attention."

- Wow , so obedient the students ~ i wont do that if i was asked to! Eee.. so Disgusting!! -

Therese Bday Night ~

Yesterday was our dear Therese ~ Lian ~ b’day!

Celebrated with her in buccaneer along with the gang (bin, Aiz3n, Haz and Tez)

Then, we went to million barrels in seria planning to play some fireworks after that…

But when we *girls arrived, guess what we saw... POLICE!! Checking on some gangs there…maybe asking for their i.c.

Wow ~ good thing we turned up later than them. If not, we are the one being asked for i.c. and if we are caught playing fireworks, FINE or JAIL eh!!

Then, we went to OGDC to wait for our friends – *the guys. When we were leaving the OGDC carpark, some guys chased out – waving strongly. We girls doubted: “Do we know them?” But of course we didn’t stop to clarify our doubts! None of us knew them, so we didn't care.

When we meet up with the guys, we decided to go back to check out whether there’s any more police at the carpark - million barrels?

There is no police there, but instead we found some stalkers behind us. We stopped at million barrel carpark and they parked directly behind us. We didn’t know them but they keep on waving at us *Looked Like the guys in OGDC*. Then we decided not to play there in case police came back and we saw police cars patrolling everywhere. When we leave, they followed again.

Miss Tez. Felt so anger that she scrolled down her windows and started to shout at them. Well, they didn’t hear her of course. Then the guys asked us to go first, they will try to stop them.

Luckily they didn’t follow. Then we go lagoon play. After playing a while, think it’s not a good idea to play in front of a mosque. So Haz suggested playing at his house.

At first, kinda fun. But who knows, until around 11.45 pm, some Chinese *neighbor* scolded at us for playing fireworks. Too loud, "WANT TO SLEEP ONE AH!" they shouted. Well, I guess we did infuriated them coz the fireworks were quite loud and it’s midnight.

So we dun dare to play there anymore. Went back to lagoon to finish off the rest and for Therese to light the main/biggest/nicest fireworks at 12 am!

I even took a video of her lighting but too bad can’t upload it here And quite blurred. Then the bad Haz threw match cracker at us, giving us seconds to run for life!! Play the STAY ALIVE game!! And one time, he threw so near that the cracker bounced back nearly blew at me and Therese…Gonna Hit Hit that Haz!

Haha, well… we had a great night!! Happy Birthday Therese !!!

WAH!! - An old Trick!

“WAH!!!” Mr. P. suddenly shouted out while pointing to a TV behind me…

I turned around and See… ehh nothing special!

I heard some sound *shup*…and I turned back over…

I felt something wet touched my hand…

The first thing I saw after I turned back over was Mr. P. sitting back down…

MUAHAHAHA ~ We burst out laughing…

Erm…Don’t understand?? Let me explain in full details…

I was in Moinam the other night (25/10/06) around 12.30 am…hanging out with the gang of friends…*after playing fireworks at the same place last time in seria*

I ordered a glass of Chocolate Milkshake…

A friend of mine, Mr. P., which was seated to the opposite,… erm left of me, was suddenly so high that he suddenly felt like tasting my drink *Without my notice*. So he figured out this trick… “WAH” thing!

Well, I fell for it, thinking that something interesting was on the TV. So I turned around.

Then, when I turned back, I only saw Mr. P. sitting down. Then I realized what happened.

Mr. P. used his straw to “taste” on my drink…when he quickly retreated, his straw touched my hand~which was holding on my straw in the glass.

He thought everyone will fell for his “WAH”~ but in fact another friend of mine, ash, Didn’t. And was watching every single move he did ~ Stand up from his seat, put the straw into my glass, take a slip, and then quickly sit back down when I was turning back. Two of my other friends were witnessing the same incident too, I think. That’s why everyone burst out laughing right after I turned back.

But, I was thinking “Why can’t he just ask me for it?” Surely I will allow him a *slip*… NO harm right!!

Then I offered him my drink, saying “If u really wants to have a slip, can just ask me!! No need to play such a funny move.” Haha, then he explained if he didn’t do so, we won’t laugh. Yeah, sure, he’s right!

He became so embarrassed when I said I was going to blog this incident...Haha!! Can’t believe I fell for such an old trick! Well, I was not the only one though…Muahahaha…

UNFORGETTABLE HARI RAYA NIGHT

On Hari Raya eve (23/10/06), Tez felt like eating something sweet~ ice cream & have the sudden mood of playing FIREWORKS…. well, we need to have some fun also, right?

Fireworks can be seen in the sky while we were driving along the road and Tez even stopped completely just to enjoy the beautiful scenery… *Well, of course no car was behind us that time*

We decided to go up to seria to eat DQ and play the fireworks. After we bought DQ ice-cream, we went to a place behind OGDC, but it’s too DARK to be alone playing fireworks.

Then, we searched around Seria for more than AN HOUR to spot the Perfect location. (Those housings on the way to Seria, Kg. Baru, etc.)

Finally, we got tired of searching and decided to choose the grassland in front of Church Of Our Lady to enjoy the night. Haha, we are not sure whether any priests inside are watching us playing or not, but we didnt care so much already. We made wishes before we lighted the fireworks, we had a great time playing; just like a KID!! Then, after playing half-way, just before Tez lighted another Wishes-come-true firework...

HERE’S THE SHOCKING PART!!

A car passing by suddenly stopped. It’s like Fully stopped in the middle of the road *can hear the sound of the brake*. The car suddenly reversed directly at high speed.

Tez and I were shocked and were thinking “who the heck are them??” By the way, Tez was still holding the firework, preparing to light it. Then, we saw the car turning in. Tez immediately said: “LEE JIE, GET IN THE CAR, WE GO NOW!!!!”

We thought the police are coming as playing fireworks are illegal in Brunei and we were playing at an open area. Tez straight away switch on the engine; drove off through the bumpy road to the highway. We rushed away and when looked back, luckily the car didn’t follow us. I was laughing in the car so hardly..*stomach feel so pain*..Gahaha~

Then, Tez and I were thinking: “OH No No No! Must find another ideal place to finish off the Wishes-come-true fireworks!” Because It contains wishes from both of us. Later we found a spot, somewhere in seria, to be the PERFECT spot for the night without any distraction!

Have a great time there; singing and shouting! And the sky is full of dazzling Stars~clear sky that night...At 12 am sharp, Fireworks *Big and nice ones* can be seen blossoming in the sky - HARI RAYA!

Wow~ what an unforgettable one On Hari Raya !!~ Thanks to Tez. ^ Thinking of playing fireworks again sometimes..ermm.. SOON! ^
