Happy Birthday

HAPPY 50TH BIRTHDAY MALAYSIA!

A Beach Bug

I am a beach bug. I am trying to find the words or the expression to express how I feel about being a beach bug. I am a chinaman but yet, I love getting a nice sun tan. Yeah yeah, I know about the ozone layer and the skin cancer shit. But ... getting a sun tan seems more fun. Usually I would burn myself so bad that by the 2nd day at the beach, I would be roasted. Red as a lobster and I wont even be able to lie down on any side. Once I was burnt so badly I was even peeling at the scalp.

What's with the beaches? I don't know. There's something there that attracts me. Besides the women in bikini of course. Haha. There's both peace, thrills and also mystery when it comes to the beach and the sea. I am actually very disdain and cynical about people going to the beaches. In fact, some people should not even be there.

Who are these people? Friggin tourist whom just want to see the "beauty" of the island or the beach. But, do they really see it? Or, its just because they have been in the city for so long, any friggin beach resort would look nice to them. Do they feel the peace? Do they feel the beauty instead of seeing it?

I see morons and idiots who go to the islands and stay away from the sun. I hear idiots complaining about the heat or even the sticky sweat that runs down their body and getting sand stuck all over them. Sheesh ... why were they there in the first place?

The best part is when you go snorkelling. This is what I see during peak season. Say the coming long merdeka weekend. You see people, floating like thousands of cork .... snorkelling it seems. You can tell the real snorkellers from the tourists. The real mccoys don't snorkel with life jackets on. Ok ok ... sometimes when I get too tired of swimming around, I will just grab a life jacket just to float around lazily. The worse are those who are afraid of skin cancer ... they go snorkelling wearing long track pants & long sleeves shirts. Yeah ... go figure. I see girls hiding in the shadows and not snorkelling. Some brought their umbrellas along. And when they go home, they said the island is soooo beautiful. They had a good time. Doing what? Hiding in the shade?

Enuff bitching about all these posers. 'Till the next blog, have a beachy good time. By the way, the picture I took was a deco put up by the beach resort at night. Everyone just wined and dined on the beach. I was just imagining ... when I was munching down on my seafood, what if a tsunami wave hits?

Being a Dad

Hello readers or fans of me blog.

Yes ... it has been a while since me last blog. And some of you already know, baby lembu came out earlier this month of August ... and the feeling is .................... overwhelming.

Its still sinking in, being a daddy and all. I do realised now ... I have really really lost the space and the freedom in my life. But I have to come to terms with it. And ... its really worth it. Tho' honestly, sometimes I tend to dream again ... about my dreams and the "to infinity and beyond"

When I say its really worth it, its a totally different feeling holding the little guy in your arms. At work, you just wana go home and watch him sleep or harass him a little. Wake him up so that can cradle him in your arms again. Why do I do all this? I have this thing in my mind ... carpe diem! seize the day now. He is that cute little fella now. Very soon he will grow much bigger and its going to be really tiring to be carrying him. Next thing you know, he will be driving you up the walls. And later, he won't even want you to touch him. And next, he will be rebelling against you. So ... seize the day!

I will miss my islands and my beaches. I will miss the waves and the open air. The breeze. The salty sea air ... well, I will blog about all these later. For now ... its cleaning his poop time. Lil fella has been screaming for the past 30 seconds. Will let him scream a bit more to make sure he has fully shat.

Until the next blog ... which I hope will be soon ... remember to Seize the Day! Carpe Diem.
