"You're sick of feeling numbYou're not the only oneI'll take you by the handAnd I'll show you a world that you can understandThis life is filled with hurtWhen happiness doesn't workTrust me and take my handWhen the lights go out you will understandAnger and agonyAre better than miseryTrust me, I've got a planWhen the lights go off you will understandPain , without lovePain, I can't get enoughPain, I like it rough'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all"-Three Days Grace, Pain.Pain by Three Days Grace.Came Across this Song when I was browsing through YouTube.This song doesn't really sound Fantastic when I first listen to it.Somehow the title of the song 'Pain' attracts me and made me listen to the whole song over again trying to find the meaning in it.'Cause I'd rather feel pain than nothing at all'.Life may be bad, there may be hardship.You might feel sad, hurted and even pain.Sometimes you would rather you feel nothing at all.But imagine, if you can't feel the...

2007-11-13 15:10:00
Have you ever wonder how old will you live till?How old would your parents live till?As times goes by, while I'm going step by step into adulthood and independence, my parents are growing older too.Signs of aging are starting to show on their faces and the hardship they went through when they are young are taking effect on their body.I've never lose someone important to me in my Life before.When I see the effects of Time and Aging , I start to Fear.I've never experience the feeling of losing someone Important and I don't want to experience it ever!(Don’t think I have a choice isn’t it?

Childhood
2007-11-10 15:10:00
Everyday when I walk home, I will walk through a Park near my place.Although there's different route I can take, some even shorter, but I'll still prefer walking through the Park.Why?Because in the Park, time seems to move slower from the normal fast pace world that we live in.All around the park is Feeling of Joy and Sound of Laughter.I can hear the Bell of the Ice Cream Man ringing, Birds flying freely in the Sky Chirping Happily and most important of all, the Laughter of the Children playing in the park.I will often slow down my steps and look at the Children Playing around the Park.A Little Sister alone playing with her doll while her Elder Brother is playing Hide-and-Seek with his Friends.Bunch of Good Friends Racing against each other on their Precious Bicycle.Two good Friends Sitting on the Swing side by side, sharing their experience and things happening in School.These are the things that we often do when we were young.What about now?We are Rushing, Rushing to work, Rushi...

Making Changes
2007-11-09 03:06:00
The World around us is always changing...Changing towards good due to the newest Technology that helps in our Life...Changing towards bad due to damaging of Mother Nature...Now even my Office is changing >We are shifting from 25th Floor to 10th Floor. No more Nice View from the Top of the World and no more Personal Space due to changing of Office to Open Concept. But is everybody able to Adapt to Changes easily? Do you Change yourself to suit the Changing Environment? Or do you Change your Environment to Suit you? After thinking, I decide to go for the First Option.(Changing the Environment to Suit me seems pretty hard) This is why I've decide to Change the Layout of Buen Amigo. A New Look for a New Buen Amigo! Currently I'm Changing the Template and Layout so Buen Amigo might seems quite Empty, but please bare with me and I'll get everything Sort out Soon =) Thanks for all the Support! Cheers!

Perception...

Perception... What's Perception?Perception is what we see in Life and how do we see Life.Since Perception is about Views in Life, doesn't it mean Perception is also how we distinguish between what is important and what is not in Life?Life can be as big and important as you make it out to be. Or it can be as small and insignificant as you perceptions define it.So how Big or how Small is your Life?I used to think Life is bad, nothing goes in my way, everything in Life is just about Destiny making fun of me.But soon I realised, even if it's Destiny that's making fun of me, but it doesn't gives me the leisure to sit and do nothing!So is it that changes my way of thinking during that point of time?It's all about Happiness.Not that I suddenly found Happiness, it's that I came to an understanding that Perceptions in Life affects Happiness.How can Perception in Life affects Happiness?When you are pricked by the Thorns on the Rose, do you complain because Roses have Thorns, or do you ...

Meanings... Meanings of Life... Meanings of doing certain things in Life...Sorry for disappearing so long >It's not that I'm no longer maintaining this blog... It's because I'm out on a 'mission'... a 'mission' to find the meaning of my Life...Been wondering alot recently... wondering 'Why am I doing this? Why am I doing that?'...It all feels like... what I'm doing... are all for the sake of other people but not myself... I dont feel the sense of happy.... or the emotion 'happy'...But what can I do to make myself happy?Have you ever wonder about this question?My 'mission' of finding this answer... failed...Till now... I'm still unable to answer this question if someone ask me...Is it that when you do things for the sake of other people... you see their smile on their face... you will feel happy about it too?Since young...

Body Language
2007-08-31 15:49:00
An expert say, body language is not the same for men and women.Women are most turned on by a man who uses his eyes to say: I am interested in you.Men on the other hand are most aroused by a woman with a suggestive, seductive or flirtatious walk.Interesting isn’t it?After the first meeting, it takes only seven seconds for us to know whether we find the other person sexy or not.In that time, he has scanned her body completely before returning his gaze to her face, and she has made up her mind by concentrating on his eyes and lips.So what is your body telling the opposite sex?A lot of us may not know it, by using the right body language; you can give yourself self-confidence a boost!When you are displaying confidence signals: assertiveness, control, dominance – you’re bound to feel more confident.The hand-on-hips stance will signal an aggressive attitude. When you’re seated, then lean forward with both hands on your knees; it conveys the idea that you’re confident and ready.B...

Innovative
2007-08-19 15:25:00
Last Thursday and Friday I went to a very interesting course, which I hope to share with all of my Friends here.The name of the course is ‘GROW Your Ideas’.Basically it’s a course which enables your skills for Inno vation.So what is Innovation?From what I understand after the 2 long day, Innovation is the successful exploitation of new ideas and the enabling of people to have ideas and take positive action for change.Many of us are too satisfied in our very own Comfort Zone to dare to make a change to our Life.I believe some of you may have asked yourselves before, ‘Why must I do it like this?’ or ‘Why can’t I do it that way?’Being Innovation is also being able or dare to make changes to interrupt our normal Life/Work flow.Why I use the word ‘dare’, because not all changes will have a good outcome.It’s because of these different possible outcomes; people are unable to step out of their Comfort Zone.During the first day of the course, I asked this question ‘Wha...

Love
2007-08-10 17:00:00
Love - a constellation of emotions and experiences related to a sense of strong affection or profound oneness.The meaning of Love varies relative to context.Love can also be construed as Romantic Love, Platonic Love, Religious Love, Familial Love, and, more casually, great affection for anything considered strongly pleasurable, desirable, or preferred, to include activities and foods.If you search the internet, the definition for Love is often classified it into types, such as passionate love, romantic love, and committed love.These types of Love can often be generalized into a level of sexual attraction. In common use, Love has two primary meanings, the first being an indication of adoration for another person or thing, and the second being a state of relational status.So what is your definition of Love?Many people believe Love is a sensation that magically generates when Mr. or Ms. Right appears.This sensation is based on both physical and emotional attraction.Which means this sen...

Passions
2007-08-06 16:02:00
Nothing great in the world has ever been accomplished without Passi ons.This is what I always believe in.But in Life, do we really have a choice to choose between Passions and Reality?Passions, a powerful emotion, a boundless enthusiams.Lifelong dreams are the stuff of Passion.Since young, we develops hobbies and interest through things we learn and see.A hobby or an interest becomes a Passion when it has made inroad into our heart and change the way we think and view things.But how many of us can really do things that we are Passionate in for life? Or for a living?I used to like designing and art a lot, and I used every chance I have to take up courses and lessons to understand and learned more about it.Until a certain stage of life, when I have to decide what I really want to do for the rest of my life.I wanted to study interior design, but being discouraged by my parent, I took up engineering instead.Which is where I am now, working in a software related job, and maybe for the res...

Regrets
2007-08-05 13:59:00
There is no such thing as a life without any regrets. No matter big or small, it will be a memory that lives in our mind forever.Just like a quote I came across recently, “Many of us crucify ourselves between two thieves - regret for the past and fear of the future.”.When you regret about a certain decision you made in the past, in present if you come across the same situation again, you fear of making another decision which will turn out wrong or has a bad outcome.Just like Love, some people fear the feeling of falling in Love, or even admiring someone.In the past, I did once fear the feeling of falling in Love with someone. Or I should say, afraid of giving promise to the person I Love.So what caused these fear? The answer is Regrets .I regret that I made a wrong decision at that point of time and hurt someone I Love.Especially when I could hear her crying over the phone a few days later after my ‘decision’. I feel like a sinner who had made the biggest mistake in the worl...

Family
2007-08-04 05:09:00
Family, no matter who you are, every one of us has a family.No matter close or distant, good or bad relationship, they still play an important role in our life.For me, I appreciate my family a lot, especially my parents.They are just a like typical parent, who is willing to do anything just for the sake of my future (or should I say, for me to have a bright future).I have an elder sister, a distant one in fact.Last time I used to hate a lot about my family, especially my sister.Elder siblings are supposed to play a good role/example for the younger one isn’t it? But my elder sister never!Because of her, my parent never give me a second chance in life, mostly in terms of studies.She turned rebellious; flunk her grades, but my parents kept giving her a never ending second chance. They support her through her studies no matter what.What about me? All I get is ‘If you never make it, you can just forget about it’.Because of these, I made a promise to myself; I will prove to other p...

Friendship

Friendship, what is your definition of a friend?Someone who goes to work/school everyday with you? Someone who accompanies you for lunch break everyday? Or is it someone who invites you out for an overnight party even though you are having an important exam/work the next day?Alot of us know whats the true definition of a friend, but we often forget about it. Until one day then you find out, the person who you defines as 'friend' is actually telling everyone around you your darkest secret.Why do people often makes this kind of mistake?Because we are creatures who is scare of the feeling of being lonely =)'Friends - Is Someone Who Might Not Be Around To Share Your Happiness, But Is Someone Who Definitely Will Be Around To Share Your Troubles'This is what I always believe in.So, how many friends do you have in your life? how many of them actually hangs around during you most troubled days?I can proudly say 'I HAVE 7 FRIENDS' (p.s. my definition of close friends, good friends, bes...
