爱情错过与等待

noreply@blogger.com (Desmo) — Sat, 19 Dec 2009 13:03:00 +0000

我们的一生都在等待,等待爱情的降临,等待一个人的出现,
因为心中有等待,所以充满幻想与希望,
这一生当中会有很多人存在于我们的记忆当中,犹如河水中慢慢沉淀的流沙,
每个个人都是我们成长中的过客,
在特定的时间陪我们走过生命中的一段路,度过一段幸福快乐的时光,
但谁又是我们最终的等待呢?
等待的过程会让我们经历种种的伤痛与无奈,相爱的人不一定会有结果,
明明知道毫无结果却又不忍放弃,最后只留下一颗破碎的心,
爱情犹如毒药,明明知道会将自己毁灭,却还是义无返顾的去爱!

我看过这样一个故事:有一只老鼠爱上了一只猫,她每天都躲在角落里幸福的望着那只猫,
有一天当她终于鼓起勇气对那只猫说:"我爱你!"猫却无情的拒绝了这只可爱的小老鼠,
他冷冷的对老鼠说:"滚开"然后转身走开了.
小老鼠非常的伤心.大家都觉得猫不应该这样对小老鼠,
因为谁都没有权利去拒绝一颗爱你的心,可是大家不知道,
在猫转身的一刹那,一滴泪从他的眼中慢慢的流了下来……..
她不知道,他其实是爱她的,可是就是因为爱,所以只能选择离开!
当我体会到了了猫的痛苦与无奈时,不知道为何早已泪流满面………
就是这样一个平凡的故事让我感动的流泪,那是一种心底的疼痛,
虽然猫和小老鼠不能在一起,可是有这样的一个人,深深的爱着自己,仍然让人觉得很幸福,
因为我知道,虽然我们不能在一起,可是我还可以远远的注视着你,
看着你幸福的生活,看着你温暖的笑容,这样就足够了.

有人说
摘不到的星星永远是最亮的,溜掉的小鱼是最美的,
失去的情人永远是最懂你的,错过的电影总是最好看的.
这个世界上,每个人都有想要去寻找的人,这个人,一旦错过就永远的找不回来了.
喜欢一个人是没有理由的,无悔的付出都是心甘情愿的,
只要能和心爱的人在一起,一切都是值得的,
其实我们身边都有这样的一个人在身边默默的守侯,只是我们没有发现,
真正爱你的人,不会说许多爱你的话,
却会做许多爱你的事情如果你身边有这样的人,请你好好的珍惜!

生命中太多无法承受的疼痛,我们笑我们哭,可是到最后我们却忘记了自己,当
你猛然间清醒的生活在现实中,你会发现你已经在不知不觉中变的不在像自己,
以前的单纯快乐已经被时间所磨灭…….,

生命是脆弱的,这一秒的微笑很可能也会成为下一秒永远的怀念,
可是爱情同样脆弱,虽然我们知道彼此的存在,却无法在回到从前,
这样的疼痛,会变成一辈子的遗憾,没有谁在一开始就会想到结束的。
我们笑，我们彼此都没有预料，
这些所谓的爱情、事业、生命原来都很像指间流过的空气。稀薄而轻易。

看过夜间盛开的花，看过凌晨没来得及藏好的星，
看过生命中一场又一场的别离。
到现在，你，你们，能不能告诉我，
这些唱过的没唱过的歌，
流过的没流过的泪，
爱过没爱过的人，
是否还无怨无悔的守侯在我的人生里。

没关系，我习惯了 =）

没关系啊，我已经习惯了。别为我担心，失败了可以从错误中再学习与成长。=）

我那么失败吗？

noreply@blogger.com (Desmo) — Wed, 16 Dec 2009 12:48:00 +0000

是不是每一段感情我都那么的失败？

Miracle?

noreply@blogger.com (Desmo) — Mon, 14 Dec 2009 15:06:00 +0000

I was sick these few days, flu didn't getting better even after taking medicine. Couldn't sleep very well at night, my mind was just wondering here and there as I close my eyes. Went to visit my grandpa yesterday, his sickness still the same. Lying down on his bed, motionless, resting peacefully. His weight has been reducing since his sickness, white beard grows on his chin and upper lip. My mom tried to wake him up to remind our visiting. He was awaken, motionless moving his eyes to pay attention to us. I could see that he was trying to say something as he could barely lift his lips to say something. I believed he is very tired so we leaved him back to rest. Had chat with my uncle and aunt about his condition. I guessed we have nothing else to do about it but just leave it to time.
I can still remember by the time we left, I walked towards him, sat down on his bed, holding his hand to say goodbye. I could notice his eyes are trying to focus on me with moving his head. At the instant moment, I could feel the sadness deep inside my heart. ='( I dunno what I could say more to him because I could see that he was tired and needed more rest.
Grandpa, I wish I could say Happy Chinese New Year to you in the next 2 months time. Will you wait for me? I know I can put too much hope, but I guess I need to have faith. I will pray for you and I will hope miracle will happen.... I dunno.... I have gotta be prepared.

What can I do now?

noreply@blogger.com (Desmo) — Thu, 10 Dec 2009 15:27:00 +0000

Grandpa's sickness is getting worst =( He can hardly talk, walk and eat. According to my uncle, there is nothing we can do but to leave it to time. I'm so blank now... I don't know what I can do... I don't what I can imagine... I'm so confusing right now... so sad... so blamed myself that I didn't pay him a visit just now. I hate myself getting sick and miss this chance to see him. I dunno I can still see him or not... ='( so sad now... so wish to talk to someone...

End of This Semester

noreply@blogger.com (Desmo) — Sat, 05 Dec 2009 16:39:00 +0000

Wow... finally end of the semester, after all the tortures from piles of assignments and exams. 14 weeks were fast though. Never thought it is the end of it. Next year will be my final semester. Wondering what might the challenges will come. Of cause, apart from studies, my final year project will step in too. Well, it gonna be tough though. Anyway, "Never Give Up" is my motto. Whatever the challenges are, I'm ready to face it.
Talk about challenges and FYP, I dunno if you guys might thought I'm an idiot or fool. I have chosen Geotechnical as my field. People says it is not easy, difficulties gonna come to you as many as it has. Hm... I know it is not easy. I like Geo though, but not as much as I love Bridge Engineering. I did think of getting Structural but too bad the lecturer might only to come out topic on connections especially steel connections. =( Another reason I choose Geo is because I wanna learn more from Dr. Ong (my idol, my favorite lecturer). Even now after the exam finished, next week I gonna be working with him. I volunteer myself to work with him this semester break so to learn from him. Plus, the works I gonna take from him might gonna be my FYP too. =)
I can still remember that day when I asked his permission to join him for the holidays works, he was very pleased to accept my involvement. He told me the projects I gonna work on will be from the Kuching Wastewater Sewage Pipelines or the Padang Merdeka Hotel. Cool~~ Right? I was so delighted when I heard from him. Common... this two projects are the current hot projects in Kuching. Whichever it is gonna be, I got alots to learn from it and proud to be part of the people involve. Congratulate me!!! Hahaha...
Anyways, let skip the studies. Holidays Holidays... YEah!!! but boring though... last night had fun with friends at pub. Well, first time be in this place. Musics is great (because it is Techno). Second, it is quite boring anyway because the musics are too loud and can hardly have communication. Then only can drink and play cards and dance around by self awhile (Last nite wasnt full, I wonder if it were full then will I go and dance around the ladies?? LOL).
Of cause in the end got drunk, vomited here and there. Horrible cleaning ofcause this morning. Haha... I was so drunk that this whole day I felt dizzy. Anymore next time?? Well, I dont think I gonna join again. Besides from the physically suffering, mental suffering too drops its part here. Hehe... sorry Bong if you saw this. =P
Oh ya, remember the old guy I mentioned on early posts before. I finally met him again. This time, I bought the biscuit from him. Yeah... finally able to help him make a day. But but.... his stuffs are pricey. UNCLE!!! Y NEED TO SELL SO PRICEY. LIKE THAT WHERE GOT PEOPLE WANNA BUY FROM U!!! sigh... ofcoz i didnt say this out... Haha... True right?
Hm... what else I wanna say here. Before this I had alots to say and thought of putting in my blog. Now I needa recall... haha... anyways, let post some other time.
So end of today post. Enjoy holidays ~

My Birthday in 1.5 hrs time.

noreply@blogger.com (Desmo) — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 14:38:00 +0000

less than 80mins to my 24th Birthday... LOL... old already. Wonder what to wish for myself this time. I can't really remember what did I wish last year. Hm... haha... totally forgot. Maybe it was this "I wish I will have a girlfriend to celebrate to me next year." LOL... I did make that wish before, but don't really remember was it last year or not. Haha...
Anyway, even if that was my wish, I don't think it ever came true. =P But, you know. Get use to it already. Now thinking of it, I don't really need a girlfriend through. I like the way I live now. Freedom, easy accessible by friends, can save money to buy things I want and blah blah blah...
Few days ago, I was already celebrated with an advance birthday dinner by my friend. At first thought my friend had something wanna tell me on that dinner and who knows after the dinner, surprised me with a birthday cake. I was like... shocked, wordless... and touched. My friend really did surprise me on that dinner. Later after dinner, another surprise again. This time, it was the birthday present. Wow.... I can tell you, this was the night full of surprises. Honestly, I am really touched on it.
Here are 2 pic of the memorable night.

Now... Less than an hour to my birthday. Haha... why do I blog it this time. I seldom pay too much attention on my birthday. Each time, I will normally just on my bed and make a wish. LOL... but 2nite... hm... beg Im gonna do it in frt of assignments. Haha... anyway. Off to do asgmt now. Tomorrow gonna post more pic of my bday celebration. =P

~Desmond 11.13pm 061009~

New Desmond??

noreply@blogger.com (Desmo) — Mon, 21 Sep 2009 17:06:00 +0000

Hm... I dunno wadz wrong wit me lately. I've been trying to change my appearances, my clothing, my hairstyle and everything that I wish to make a change. Ofcoz not changing my sex, LOL.
One of the reason can be due to the imcoming prom nite. I'm trying to giv a perfect image during the nite. Another reason could b lately absorbing too many stress and thinking.
Ofcoz, life is full with studies and assignments. However, lately, something hav been catching on my mind, torturing me, circulating my and ruining my mood. I'm not sure this could b a misunderstanding or not. But I hope it was. Sometime, being too good to a person could really lead to some kinda misunderstanding. Ofcoz... particularly b nice to a female friends. There was once I experienced the same feeling, now... it happens again. Oh, common... being nice to you doesn't mean I wanna like u. Haha... Anyway, the thing that bothering me is that... YOU ARE TRYING TO AVOID ME!!! Sigh... I really wish to explain to u. BUt ofcoz... explain too much could lead more to misunderstanding. Nah... nvm now... juz let it be natural. See how it goes with time. Maybe in future, it will be the other way round. HAHA...

Talk abt changing, I'm having a new hairstyle, trying to wear more classy look, kinda like wanna follow the Korean and Japanese fashion trend. Went for shopping laz Sat, bought a shirt and a trouser from SUB, cost me about RM250. T.T Damn... becoz of this prom nite, I pokai liao... lol. Juz now Ah Bong teased me, "if you dont get to know a gal during the prom nite, you should be sorry for yourself." LOL... true true... Ok, Bong... I will definitely try. With new image, I ofcoz... gain a new confident to myself. =P

Wow... so late ody... anyway. Here are some of the pic I took during testing for some shirts and coats. Oh, btw... WHY THE FCUK IS THE COAT SO DAMN EXPENSIVE... and itz kinda hard to find a cheap one in Kch... sux.

Oh, I've forgotten. 2day, I did sth terribly wrong. I saw the old man again who sells biscuits (appeared in my previous post) . But... But... I didnt buy from him. I WAS SO COLD HEARTED!!! WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WIT ME?? I should have bought sth from him as promised. But I didnt!!! Omg... I didnt keep my promise... sigh... now thinking back. I'm really feeling so sorry to myself. GOD, please forgive me.

So sad giving away... T.T

noreply@blogger.com (Desmo) — Wed, 19 Aug 2009 14:23:00 +0000

Ya, it really sad to pass my club away. Now, I'm no more the president of the club, of my baby. LOL... due to the reasons on my study. I have no choice but to elect a new president and committee to take control of my club. However, I will still be the adviser for it. As long as I'm here in Swinburne, I will be watching it grow to be a successful club. Most important thing is to promote to all the students and give volunteering to Habitat and help the poor.
Surprisingly my new president is Rosemary. Well, I'm great that she was elected. She has the motivation to lead the club well. Previously during the build, I could really see her worked very hard. She was liked no others. She has just different with others. lol... Rosemary, if you read this (I'm dont think you are, since itz not a popular blog), I'm just telling the truth. =)

Surprisingly O.O

noreply@blogger.com (Desmo) — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 14:00:00 +0000

Surprisingly... surprisingly... I can finally allow to take 5 subjects this semester. As granted by Dr. Ong. Haha... at 1st dont really putting so much hope, but then luckily after seeing thru my every sems performance, he finally allowed me. Cant belive it. Anyway, happy for it is not enough. From now on, I have to work very hard. VERY VERY HARD.

Another surprising news is that my sis has her 1st BF... I dunno if I was doing the rite thing or not by encouraging her and congratulating her. I means, since she still studying and new to her school. Is it ok to get involve in this thing? I know u may say Im old thinking, but u know... like every bro cares on his sis.

I asked about her BF... she told me he confessed to her and she juz take it. Haha... and she even gave me a lesson. "All you need is courage to earn her heart" LOL... now a sis is giving lesson to her bro how to chase gals... haha... Well, not that I dont hav the courage to win a woman's heart. Is juz that Im still dont feel like wanna get involve in relationship. Not becoz Im afraid of failure. Its juz that I wanna concentrate on my career. Just wait 1st... she will appear when the time come. Who knows tomorrow she juz appear. I dunno... I could tell... Juz... let it be natural. Haha..

Desmond 10.34pm 140809

Final year now.

noreply@blogger.com (Desmo) — Sun, 09 Aug 2009 12:12:00 +0000

Tomorrow 10/08 starts with my final year semester 1. Can't really imagine it has been 4 years I'm a undergraduate student. With a year to go, I will be graduating and shift to career life. Still remember I ever thought of giving up my study and went to seek for job after F6. Thanks to my dad and some of my dad's friends who encouraged me to move on study. And that was how I got into Swinburne and start my dream as an Civil Engineer. Still remember one of my dad's friend, Uncle Thomas Siah told me to study hard and don't waste my father's effort on preparing my education while we were inside his car watching my dad ran to his car. Uncle Thomas died in heart attack last two years. We are missing him so much.

Anyway, looking back on my performance. Things were not that well. I had tried so hard every semester and my results are still not very satisfying. This coming semester is my final year, I really have to try very best. Tomorrow will be needing so much luck. 1st I may need it for the approval from the Finance Department to allow me to pay my tuition fee after my loan approve. 2ndly, I'm really wish that Dr. Ong would permit me to take 5 subjects this semester. In case you don't know. I have been asking him since pervious semester. Now is my second try. Really, really so hope that he can understand my situation. Plus I will be quitting my Habitat club and hand over to someone else. Or maybe just shut it down. I dunno... =( (So wish that someone for me now)

Now everyone is asking me on the timetable arrangement on this semester. Mine is so much different from them. The only reason is that I may need to attend one extra lecture. It will still be changed after tomorrow. Let wait and see how.

Today blog ends here with a feeling of nervous and hope. After this I will move on to read on tomorrow notes. Be prepared !!! THE CHALLENGES IS COMING.

Help once, but not always (帮得了一时，帮不到一世)

noreply@blogger.com (Desmo) — Mon, 29 Jun 2009 12:54:00 +0000

Sis will be heading to study at Nilai, Negeri Sembilan tomorrow. Flight will arrive at LCCT at about 11pm. We (my parents, sis and I) gonna stay overnite in the airport. Hopefully noone chase us out. Haha... Anyway, after tomorrow, maybe will have to wait till her holiday to meet her again... ='(

Went for farewell dinner last nite. During dinner, saw an old man walked unstable carrying an basket with some packets of biscuit inside. While on his other hand carrying a pack of biscuit, passing by a table and another asking the customers to buy. With a very low speech, people could hardly understand what he wants. Judging by the biscuit he was carrying, people in Kuching will right away know the idea. None of the customers didn't entertain him, some even didn't care about his existence. Finally, he came to our table. I was actually reaching my wallet to buy the biscuit... but a sudden instinct stopped me. An instinct of not being cheated, scare of being scolded by my mom for wasting money. Sigh... What the heck was I thinking... I should stick wit my own decision. That makes me so regret now.

Since, I was unable to buy from him. I greeted him with a smile and politely shake my head. He knew the result and walked away without saying anything. T.T I'm feeling so bad abt this....

After few minutes of walking around all the shop houses, the old man came back to our table. This time, I was not gonna let the chance go away. However, my sis told me something which stopped me. She said even if u help now, u still can't help him tomorrow. =( That's true.... I dont have enough power to stop this from happening.

All I can do now is trying to do as much charity and help as much as I can. Next time, after my retirement, I will open a restaurant and special treatment will be given to the poor. Free drinks, free meals... whatever they want.

Anyway, now thinking back. I should help him instead. Maybe one sell of a pack of biscuit can earn him some money for himself or his family. Feel so sad and regret.

Great Success

noreply@blogger.com (Desmo) — Thu, 05 Mar 2009 07:26:00 +0000

It was a big success to my presentation and the forming of my club. "May I proudly present to you the ever first Habitat Youth Program in Sarawak, SWINBURNE HABITAT FOR HUMANITY CAMPUS CHAPTER.!"
Ya, in case u not aware. I'm forming a club or I should say "formed" a club in my uni. What tis club about? well, u gotta check out my previous post. In short, it is a club to help to eliminate housing poverty around the world. We, youth program assist the HFH international to carry out 4 main functions which are Building, Educating, Advocating, and Funding.
I joined the program last year and I found it fascinating especially for me who like to involve in charity event except the "go bald" program. Haha...
Anyway, talk about the presentation I gave. Well at 1st was abit nervous but when started to speak out, everything went smooth.
32 students joined my speech including myself, along with my club adviser Madam Christina Yin. Thanks a lot for those who support me for the club.
Now with the club is formed and board of director is selected, I'll then need to get the club to move on track and strike for the best along with my studies. hehe... "If there is a will, there is a way" so i'm sure if u have the heart to do it, u will sure get it done.

Before Presentation

Discussion is going on

Thanks for listening

My presentation lasted about an hour because we had another meeting for Civil Engineering Club. Honestly, Civil Engineering Club is the club I've been thinking about since my 1st year. But now since i have another club to run, I think I will I consider myself as member. Haha...

Anyway, lots happened yesterday. Joo Ching's Birthday, my HFH presentation, CEC meeting and saw smoky sky away from my uni.

Remind me of the Kuching High School burned down last year. Scare me this time that I thought will be another school. LOL.

Alright, gotta prepare myself with fancy suit. Later will attend a dinner with the HFH Kuching at the Sarawak Golf CLub

Will be going with my another adviser Dr. Ling. Blog again tonight about the dinner. By now, blog close. haha... cya

noreply@blogger.com (Desmo) — Mon, 02 Mar 2009 15:32:00 +0000

Yes, Swinburne Habitat for Humanity Campus Chapter. Manage to finish the script what I will present on Wednesday. This Wed is a big day to me coz i will be presenting a new club. Kinda nervous actually coz im not really sure whatz gonna come out. haha... i mean will it be like less people coming or opposite?
Anyway, new semester starts today. New subject new challenge. Advised by the subjects outline, 4 hrs are needed for study and revision everyday. Yeah... so from now on. I will be less gaming, movie, and net surfing. I will needa stike the best to show that I'm capable of (getting 5 subjects next sem). Giving myself a plan and I will need to make it reality.
Thought of going to celebrate my club on Wed nite with one of my friends. However, I didn't notice that I will have class till 730pm. So I guess it will be too late for having dinner. But supper will be fine if she is ok. SMSed her today but wasn't getting any reply and msn showing offline. Well, maybe I guessed she is avoilding me. Haha... Maybe I'm just not too good in asking out. Anyway, hope she reply me tomorrow so I can make a plan for it.
Cheers

Not Working... T.T

noreply@blogger.com (Desmo) — Tue, 24 Feb 2009 03:43:00 +0000

Damn... went to see Dr. Dominic juz now... Well, as expected... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

Ok, never mind about that, but something did storm me is that he said "Even if you get full HD, you still can't take 5 subjects in one Semester. It's the uni policy."

!@#$%^&* Screw the Uni shit policy!!!

Nah.... whatever, I got no choice. Sad...

New Semester Starts on next week

noreply@blogger.com (Desmo) — Tue, 24 Feb 2009 02:49:00 +0000

itz been a while since my last post. During the past few months, I've been doing training and teaching tuition. A lots of things have happened; My grandma got stitched on her forehead, relatives going through almost RM 50k surgery. Well, these were just bad side of it. Looking at the good side however, I met new friends through my training. 3 persons from different universities. Two of them from AUS, one is in the University of New South Wales (Sydney) and another one is from the RMIT University. While the last person in the University of Canterbury (Canterbury, New Zealand).
Through the knowing, I've discover so many aspects of studies in Civil Engineering different from my university. Well, of course we've learned alots from one another.
Talk about the incoming semester on next week.
I'm now in my uni library alone, ya alone with zero students around me. Damn the library is so cold that make me a bit headache or maybe I'm watching my laptop without my spec T.T
Haha... anyway, purpose today going to uni is to present my ideas and updates to my club advisors. In case you don't know much about me, I'm forming a new club in my uni. It's the Habitat for Humanity Campus Chapter. I've been planning for this club ever since my last voluntering work for the program. Ever since, I've never lost interest in getting the next jobs.
Went to see Mdm Christina just now and we decided to plan for the first meeting on next Wednesday. Coz by then we can know how many student who are interested and we can continue with the club building. Well... wish me goodluck then.
Anyway, besides for the discussion. I'm also having meeting with my civil coordinator Dr. Dominic to do admendment on my Semester subjects. Hoping to get 5 subjects instead of 4 on this sem.15 more minutes seeing him now. Kinda worry that he won't allow but I think I knew the answer. "NO"... well... as expected which I hope not... Wish me goodluck... but I think by the time you read this post, the event has already passed.
Ok, end my words now. Ready to pack my things and see him now.

Finally exam finish =)

noreply@blogger.com (Desmo) — Wed, 03 Dec 2008 06:03:00 +0000

Yeah... after 3 weeks of hard work revision and exercise, the exams finally end yesterday. Feeling release now... Anyway, next week I will be going for industrial training and by the time I will get myself busy once more. I'm really feeling exciting about the industrial training next week. Wondering how the workplace gonna be and how to work among the real engineers. Heard that I'm gonna be the only one from Swinburne going for this company, so i think there will others from Unimas and UCS. Wow... thatz gonna be challenging compete with their standard, but I'm believe I will be doing better than them since all these hardship for so many years. =P

Actually will be going to work during the pcfair on this weekends, but was disappointed that they didn't give me a chance. T.T Gotta try next time.

Argh!!!

noreply@blogger.com (Desmo) — Mon, 20 Oct 2008 16:15:00 +0000

Argh!!! So so ridiculous... So damn FXXKing BIG company and email me not accepting any more positions for industrial training... Damn...

It all happened wit juz a normal email that I was so excited to receive regarding my Industrial Training placement. First glance on it, "Wah... finally KNS Company reply me." and I was so excited that I called my parents to read the email together. Well, look what happen next..."We wish to inform u that due to office constraint, we are UNABLE to accommodate any more trainees for the said period." I was... WTF... stunned by the word UNABLE rite away. Felt depressed and disappointed. Months of wait for the surprise email finally came out like damn rubbish. Rite away, I felt hopeless.

I emailed my lecturer regarding the matter and hope she could reply me and brighten on hope on my December training.

So damn pissed off...can't do study and assignments. Now wanna go shot people in Brother In Arms: Hell's Highway!!! ARGH!!!! Not a good nite...

Habitat For Humanity

noreply@blogger.com (Desmo) — Thu, 24 Jul 2008 12:53:00 +0000

Habitat For Humanity Project

For the pass one week (14th-18th July), I was joining a program called Habitat For Humanity. This is a worldwide charity program that helps those people in need to build their houses. The participants for this program are mostly volunteers. About 2 months ago, Habitat for Humanity Program came to Swinburne University and promote who they are. Since I'm a person who loves charity works and getting more knowledge in house building, I took part on it.

14th July 2008
The first day of the program. I was very excited of what I would gonna see and learn and how the place gonna looks like. Will it gonna be thick growth of grass? Are we gonna start building from the start? Oops... Did I forget to mention where the location is? The program is located at Kampung Sandong, Jalan Stephen Yong. Well, the place is not so bad as I've expected. It's just a normal Kampung. When we (team of participants) was there, the foundation of the house was already built with columns and roof. Here are some of the pictures taken.

At the beginning, we started our work by doing simple sawing a square end of the floor beams.

After nailing

Yap... one day works

15th July 2008
Second day of the program.

Since the beams were in placed. I was positioned in bending the steel for ground columns later.
Now, below 2 pictures are very interesting which you do not learn in your study. Just some simple woods, nails and tool, you can bend the steel bar easily. The pictures might be abit hard to explained. I did draw the whole thing out in paper. Hope I can scan it and post it here.

Some of my friends who was working on the beams nailing

and some want for the floor

The Column and Steel bars I mentioned earlier.

Pictures taken before we off for the day.

16th July 2008
Third Day of the Program

This is Mr. Bambang (the house owner) parents house.

Honda ASIMO

noreply@blogger.com (Desmo) — Fri, 04 Jul 2008 15:21:00 +0000

I'm always so impressed on Honda ASIMO, a 1200mm, normal 7 years old kid's height robot. Yes, a robot created by Honda in the beginning of 1986. I'm believed most of you have some knowledge about this robot. Most of you may have seen it on the television.

It's how amazing the technology can be. Some of the well-known movies such as I-Robot and Robocop may be coming into realistic in future. And not only Honda Asimo is created, there are also thousand of robots being created and experimented each year.
Why do we need robot anyway? Well, is the same question why do we need car and transport. In future, robots may help us in daily chore such as bringing our kids to school, help us drive our cars, help us take care of our pets and infinite tasks.

Honda Asima was called E0 at the beginning experimental model in 1986, follow by E1 till E6 in 1991. It was then shifted to Humanoid Prototype Models that called P1, P2 and P3 on 1993, 1996 and 1997 respectively. In the Humanodi Prototype Models, the robots were designed more to the human apperance. In other words, the robots were designed with arms and legs, hands and foot, and head of cause.

The P1, Created in 1993 and was called the Honda Monster

Revolution of the Honda Robots

It was then in 2000, Honda unveiled the ASIMO. On the following years, Honda Asimo was well improved and was ready to bring the world into new generation.

Makes me weep almost every part of the film

noreply@blogger.com (Desmo) — Tue, 01 Jul 2008 14:10:00 +0000

Yes... This movie really made me weep almost every scene of it. The story was so touching that you can't bear have your eyes wet when watching it. And today Im gonna introduce you this movie.

~The Bucket List~

Okay... What is this movie all about? Let put it short. This movie is about two men who found themselves only have months to live. Instead of waiting for the day to come, they two had decided to create a bucket list which about the listing of the things that they plan to do before they die. The story told how they traveled the world and found themselves joy and excitement that they never did before in their life.

You really should watch the movie. It's about how Life is. Bringing us awareness of how life is so important to us and so short that we can't even know when it passed.
There is a scene where both of them talk about suicide. There are five stages of it which are Denial, Anger, Rebellion, Depression and Acceptance. It's really an interesting study which I find out here.
Then also "The Stars, it's really one of God's greatness."
"You know the ancient Egyptians had a beautiful believe about. When the soulds got to the entrance of heaven, God ask them 2 questions. Their answer determent, whether they were admitted or not."
1st question "Have you found joy in your life?"
2nd question "Has your life brought joy to the others?"
"Our lives are streams. Flowing to the same river. Towards whatever heaven lays, in the mist beyond the falls"

What a really meaningful movie, I'm really hope you guys can enjoy watching this movie and feel it. Watching with your love one.

"Have you found and give your joy today?" Desmo 11.08pm 010708
