Today's Email [31032011] - 10 things to learn from Japan.

---10 things to learn from Japan.




1. THE CALM

Not a single visual of chest-beating or wild grief. Sorrow itself has been elevated.



2. THE DIGNITY

Disciplined queues for water and groceries. Not a rough word or a crude gesture.



3. THE ABILITY

The incredible architects, for instance. Buildings swayed but didn’t fall.



4. THE GRACE

People bought only what they needed for the present, so everybody could get something.



5. THE ORDER

No looting in shops. No honking and no overtaking on the roads. Just understanding.



6. THE SACRIFICE

Fifty workers stayed back to pump sea water in the N-reactors.
 How will they ever be repaid?



7. THE TENDERNESS

Restaurants cut prices. An unguarded ATM is left alone. The strong cared for the weak.



8. THE TRAINING

The old and the children, everyone knew exactly what to do. And they did just that.



9. THE MEDIA

They showed magnificent restraint in the bulletins. No silly reporters. Only calm reportage.



10. THE CONSCIENCE

When the power went off in a store, people put things back on the shelves and left quietly!

Book : A young girl's diary.






THE best preface to this journal written by a young girl belonging to the upper middle class is a letter by Sigmund Freud dated April 27, 1915, a letter wherein the distinguished Viennese psychologist testifies to the permanent value of the document:

 "This diary is a gem.
Never before,
 I believe, has anything been written
enabling us to see so clearly into the soul of a young girl, belonging to our social and cultural stratum, during the years of puberal develop-ment.

We are shown how the sentiments pass from the simple egoism of childhood to attain maturity;
how the relationships to parents and other members of the family first shape themselves, and how they gradually become more serious and more intimate;
how friendships are formed and broken.

We are shown the dawn of love, feeling out towards its first objects.

Above all, we are shown how the mystery of the sexual life first presses itself vaguely on the attention, and then takes entire possession of the growing intelligence, so that the child suffers under the load of secret knowledge but gradually becomes enabled to shoulder the burden.

Of all these things we have a description at once so charming, so serious, and so artless, that it cannot fail to be of supreme interest to educationists and psychologists.

MiMing Ali



Hi! This is MiMing. The latest edition in Alieka's cat family.

Ali brought him back from his workplace.

MiMing has 4 other siblings.

But Hubby Ali said that MiMing was the weakest and least responsive.

So he decided to bring her back.

Kitty and Copy was really pissed off!

But,

Jingo was curious.

I hope that MiMing and Jinggo would get along well.

That was the idea anyway.

Jinggo needs to take a resposibility to be anothers kitten's elder brother.

Wednesday - one

I ended up seeing my doctor at 5pm. The pharmacy closes at 445pm. So I went back without my meds. Imagine what type of hell inam going through at this moment. The doctor said she is so sorry that the last meds she gave me caused me to be so anxious 24/7. She nearly gave me Prozac but ended up she gave me something else. Well she did now want me to go through hell on earth again because it takes awhile for prozac to work. This time my family and close friends are giving me hell too. They put on this 'malas nak layan' mode, thinking that they would be helping me by ignoring me. Guess what! It is causing me pain and I am hurt badly. Badly enough to vow to go through this alone. Well I have been alone since January. They thought that I am okie. Hahahah! So they moved on with their lives and now when I need them again, they are just too 'busy' to attend to me. As a result I am alone. My enemies would take advantage of this information. I guess I'll be the topic in their 'facebook discussion' . Hmmmmm....

Tuesday is today

I have been lying to my family, husband, siblings and close friends. I have been pretending that I am okie. In reality I am not. My body aches like crazy. I can hardly walk moy of the time. My migraine is at it's worst now. I have held back all those pains I have been going through. Half an hour ago, I confessed to my father, hubby, sister and Tata. None of them have replied my SMS. That is why I kept it all a secret. Because I know that they will ignore me. Because that do not know what to do with me any more. They have given up. And so have I. I did make the right choice by battling this alone. I can't depend on anyone anymore without feeling depressed even more. YES I AM ALONE in this. Taking one Xanax perday to calm myself ,  not for me to sleep. People take half to sleep the whole day. While I take one whole pill to stay CALM. All the money in the world cannot bring back my self esteem. I am looking at the world differently now. Way different than before. People envy me because I am on MC alot. Well I vet they do not get envious over the pain and aches I go through. I have to really push myself to wake up and get out. My GP said I should excercise more, but I ended up falling down (no one knows this) I can't walk alone because I'll get dizzy and this would be harmful for me. And yet ppl keep saying go fir a walk or jogging without saying 'why don't WE jog' instead, they say 'why don't YOU jog'.. I tried, but ended up walking like zombie back home. My eating habits have gone crazy. I end up not eating because 'migraine ppl can't eat this, gastric people can't eat that, athma ppl can't eat those' what is there left for me to eat?!. Soup & plain water? Try having that for every meals more than three days!! I can't ctabd the lighting at work, it gives me super migrine, ironically I have to sit infront of the PC for me to be considered 'at work & working' - I am experiencing meds withdrawal & relapse . And I vow to go through this alone.. 

Got to Go - Najwa and Siz

I will be away today.

Going to meet my Doctor.

Need to tell her that the new medicine is driving me crazy [ literally ]

My body aches all over and I get tired easily.

I sleep at odd hours and it would last for about 3-4 hours.

It is normal actually, the process to get adapted to a new medicine.

But this time , i think i give up.

i did not sign up for 24/7 body ache.

The side effects differ for different people.

Some who have taken this medicine, complains of headaches and migraine.

It is expensive , rm5 each. 30 days is equivalent to RM150.

Some people actually said that I pretent to be sick.

But RM5 per day? - Who would pay Rm150 to be sick?

Rm200 for consultations.

Ishk! such mean people those small minded people.

They know the price I have to pay.

Yet they make me as their joke.

It's okie. What ever that does not kill me will only make me stronger right?

I just pray hard that they would not spend thousand of Ringgit to hire an assassin to kill me.

WAKAKAKAKAKAK!

Okie got to go.

Wel enjoy the video below.

Love Najwa!- first heard her sing when we went to Babyface last year! She did the opening act.

you go girl! - so sorry we could not make it for your showcase last Thursday! sob sob sob

Saturday Madness

Do u know the amount if courage I need to swallow these pills?. How painful it is when I realized that I just dozed off and not knowing when I did? With the amount if pills I've swallowed it just surprises me why I am physically and mentally still in agony. I'm trying to survive here with all these people trampling all over me 24/7. If I wanted my life to be scrutinized and broadcasted, I would have entered AF or one million or that protege programme thingy! Enough with all those hatred! I'm the one insanely hurt to the max. And what do you get? A billion or two? I'm in bed , crying . My body aches like hell!

What have they done?


It is so difficult for me to trust anyone. I trusted BAM about my suicide attempt. And look at what they have done with that bit of information. They ridicule and make fun of me in FB. People are thinking that they are the victim of this story. But those small minded people are too engrossed with the juicy gossip that they forgot about this thing called 'Sacred'. Seriously, some things are sacred - girl code . Apart from not dating your close friend's exbf , one should also be able to differentiate a story , a gossip and a secret. But I guess those two just needed the extra attention , apart from what they already have. One with a skill and another with a lost , they combined and joined forces to gain more popularity and 'followers' to my expence. I am being alienated like hell... they even joked about me going on Medical Leave for a year! Seriously they should not do so , it might have cost my job!

BUT!

From this catastrophe , I am able to differentiate a friend and a backstabber. So cleared my list from those people and also had to privatised my wall from a few [ I had to , to save my friendship with them ]

I also got to know a few close friends who really ARE MY CLOSE FRIENDS. age, gender , background might differ but we have the same goal - not to be a backstabber. I told them repeatedly , if I did them wrong - come to me straight away. They have no need to go gossiping , because I did them wrong so I should appologise. Anyway , if they are sincere in a friendship, they would prefer to seek my forgiveness than to be the cause of spreading a juicy GOSSIP!


p/s Why did BAM refused to listen to my story and appology? this I have yet to know - I guess they prefer to backstab me rather than honour the girls' code!

New Criminal Minds Series?

Criminal Minds: Suspect Behavior
Forest Whitaker stars in a drama about an elite team of agents within the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit who use unconventional methods of investigation and aggressive tactics to capture the nation's most nefarious criminals. Unit chief Special Agent Sam Cooper (Whitaker) is a mentally and physically fierce natural leader who is not afraid to put his career on the line in order to stand by his convictions. Cooper strives to avoid political bureaucracy and has handpicked an eclectic group of profilers to work outside the confines of Quantico: Former British Special Forces soldier Mick Rawson (Matt Ryan), confident and handsome, works as a highly-skilled marksman with an undiluted eye for rooting out evil; John "Prophet" Sims (Michael Kelly), a former convict with a street-smart edge and a calm, Zen-like presence, who is determined to make amends for past sins; and Gina LaSalle (Beau Garrett), an attractive, tough agent armed with a cunning sense of perception. This exceptional group of FBI operatives is strong in their beliefs and steadfast in their mission to bring the country's most dangerous criminals to justice.
