Wow, I'm still excited right now, can't wait for Sunday to come. Haha, our Malaysian badminton player, Lee Chong Wei (world rank: 2) has just qualified himself into the FINALS!!! YEAH!!!

The match which started at 6.30pm (according to our local timing), was held in Beijing University of Technology Gymnasium. The match was a pretty close match which kept everyone in suspense.

I purposely went to Sin Peng Ling to have my dinner at that time so that I could watch the match =) And I bet everyone inside the shop was also watching the match, and was reluctant to get up even though most of them actually finished their meals before the match ended.

I guess he was tension during the 2nd game and kept doing unforced errors. But he gained back his form in the 3rd match and won most of the shots nicely =) When he won the shots, everyone in the shop was like, "Yes!" but when he lost, everyone was like, "Oh....". Everyone was really hoping he could win and he did!

He will meet Lin Dan 林丹 (CHINA) in the finals. He is the hope for us to win a medal, better still a gold medal!! Every Malaysian will support him! The match will be held on 17th Aug (Sunday). Remember to watch ya!

Alright, need to continue with some homework and then need to head to bed to get a good night's sleep. Tomorrow will be a busy and tiring day because Traveler's Den is having a trip to Putrajaya to watch China team competing in Malaysia International Fireworks Competition (MIFC). This is the biggest trip ever with 88 participants.

Alright, adios!!!

FRUSTRATION

I just feel like releasing my frustration here. I know it's a bit contradict to what I've always said about not wanting to portray any hatred here in my blog. But this post is not about hatred. It's simply just about what I felt today...

I'm sick of what had happened. In fact, I'm tired already. Quarrels always happen between us because of some stupid small matters. Yeah at times I'm in the wrong, but hey, I'm NOT ALWAYS in the wrong k?

Most of the times, even when I'm not in the wrong, I'm the 1st one to step in and apologize. For what?? I don't know. I just hope that there won't be so much quarrels in the future. Friends always ask me to just close one eye, just let it be since you're always in such weird mood lately.

BUT WHY AM I ALWAYS THE ONE WHO HAVE TO GIVE IN???!!!!!

Friends say you have your dignity, maybe I've said something that hurt you. Well, maybe I DID hurt you, but I was just telling you the truth. I told you face to face, not in front of everybody. The reason I told you my point of view was because I hope that you realize what people around you may think about you. Yet, you flared your temper at me, as though I've humiliated you in front of everybody. GOSH!

I also have my dignity, you think I'm not hurt when you said some awful things to me? You said you were just joking about those things, but hey, do you know that I CARE what people say to me? Joking and teasing once in a while is ok, I'm not the small gas type. But a frequent teasing is something that I HATE especially if that person is you!

I'm not being sensitive, but it's an issue about one's patience limits. I always tell myself that you're just joking, don't make a big fuss about it. I'm always the one who think in positive to console myself that you don't mean to hurt me with those words.... Why can't you just accept what I've said in a positive way too??! If you don't like me telling you things like that, then just let me know and I'll just keep my mouth shut and leave you alone. There's no such need to lose your temper, isn't it?

I'm so damn disappointed. Was in such a cheerful mood this morning and now everything is spoiled. Today's a no smile day for me. But I hope you guys have a nice day. I'll do great after some time..... no worries.

To LOVE or NOT TO LOVE

People, including me always tell everyone, "If you LOVE someone, then just go for it. If you really love that person, nothing's going to get in your way."

This, I think is only applicable to fairy tales. In reality, how many people can really love their admirer, their dream girls/boys, boyfriends/girlfriends with all their heart, without having to worry obstacles along their way which bound to happen???

I would say the answer is JUST A FEW.

Friends around me, always meet with obstacles that can't be avoided. For example, family's objection. The bf's mom doesn't like/aprrove the gf. Reason? Studies and family more important. Or maybe some other weird reasons. Yet, they don't want to break up so in order to continue their realationship, they have no choice but to endure themselves into underground relationship.

But, what century is it now?? Moreover they are no longer school kids. They have grown up and are already college/university students. It's sometimes so meaningless to "tou tou mo mo". I pity them, seriously. They suffer a lot and many of the times, the relationship has no good ending. Have you ever been a victim of this kind of saddening relationship??

Another one that I've seen is because of difference of religion. Seriously, this is something that's really... how to say? WASTED.

你明明很爱他，但是却不可以爱。

Firstly, parents will definitely object the realtionship if they're really into their religion. Some youngsters are willing to convert to another religion but as you know, parents DON'T encourage. Some even want them to end the relationship. It should be a happy ending relationship, but because of this reason, they have to be separated.....

How many people really get to love someone who loves them as well???

It's not easy to find someone that you love who loves you in return. The chances are soooo tiny yet when you have found, these problems will step in your way, signalling you to end the relationship.....

Have you ever encountered these kind of problems?? Or anything similar? Friends sometimes tell me about their sad stories, but I can't console them a lot because I myself haven't been into this kind of situation. Any help out there?

Before ending this post, I would like to wish all couples, people who have fallen in love or anyone who has secret admirers all the best. May LOVE be around you all the time. Still the same words: LOVE NEEDS COURAGE

Peace and Love,
