SCAMMERS Roadtrip

Road trip to Melaka was a success!

Sunny top speed: 182km/h
Mazda top speed: 180km/h

The ironic thing was that the highlights of Melaka, chicken riceballs and Nonya food, were disappointing. We have better versions in Singapore. Especially the chicken rice!

To drivers out there: if you don't know the basic rules and ways of courtesy on e North Eastern M'sia highway, stay at home! Stop endangering other people's life - a right signal on the right lane means you are hogging, please move over to the left.

Hard and Strong

Song: A&E - Goldfrapp
Book: WoT Book 8 - Robert Jordan


Most people mistake these two to be one and the same, that their meanings are synonymous, even though they couldn't be more different than dogs and cats. Being a 'hard' man doesn't equate to being a 'strong' man.

A 'hard' man refuses to let events affect him. Mutely taking the knocks from life, he bears and endures with the hardships and stands resolute in his beliefs no matter the situation. Thus the tension in him increases as the stress and strain of life's reality test him time upon time. Until he passes his tipping point and has his hopes and dreams deflated like a balloon. Suddenly and dramatically. A 'hard' man is unforgiving, both to others and himself.

A 'strong' man, on the other hand, does let the events around him affect him. Accepting them and learning from them, he allows himself to be shaped by the lessons taught by life. Bending and twisting himself into the best possible sculpture with the materials made available to him, he changes and adapts and most importantly, he evolves. Changing for the better.

So folks, don't be too 'hard' on yourselves, but do rule yourselves with a 'strong' and firm hand. We all need a little discipline sometimes.
