Taichi&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ImPlTxXPfxc/S8fMnBy-8iI/AAAAAAAAARs/ymjIKZZkb38/s1600/tai-chi.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="212" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ImPlTxXPfxc/S8fMnBy-8iI/AAAAAAAAARs/ymjIKZZkb38/s320/tai-chi.jpg" width="320" wt="true" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Asyik passing kerja kepada orang lain. Konsepnya menepis segala kerja yang datang kepada orang lain. Asal ada unsur-unsur sales, terus forwardkan email ke ketua Sales and Marketing, ada cerita pasal pekerja je... terus passing memo tu kepada HR department.. .etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Boxing&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ImPlTxXPfxc/S8fMrbe3FFI/AAAAAAAAAR0/eIjGuaIM-84/s1600/boxing.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_ImPlTxXPfxc/S8fMrbe3FFI/AAAAAAAAAR0/eIjGuaIM-84/s320/boxing.gif" width="262" wt="true" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Single tasking (ada ke phrase ni?). Mana pernah peninju berlawan pakai kaki, siku, lutut, kepala. Mereka cuma reti genggam tangan dan tumbuk lawan. Pekerja-pekerja sebegini selalunya akan jadi kucing hilang anak bila dapat bebanan kerja lebih sikit. Kalau minta tolong print document sambil jawap telefon pun dia akan melatah.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Silat Pulut&lt;br /&gt;Before start any works, dia punya bunga-bunga punyalah lama. Macam-macam gaya, macam-macam persediaan. Nampak cantik tapi buahnya takde. Kalau nak showcase boleh lah. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. Samurai dan Cowboy&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ImPlTxXPfxc/S8fMxPdOPXI/AAAAAAAAAR8/5528BH0iRPw/s1600/samurai.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="297" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ImPlTxXPfxc/S8fMxPdOPXI/AAAAAAAAAR8/5528BH0iRPw/s320/samurai.gif" width="320" wt="true" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Apa persamaan samurai dan cowboy? Kedua-duanya pandai main senjata... actually both terlalu bergantung kepada senjata. Golongan pekerja sebeginilah yang akan mati kutu kalau equipment rosak atau internet line down. Mereka terlalu mengharapkan machine to do their works.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. Kungfu Bruce Lee&lt;br /&gt;Hampir sama seperti silat pulut, cuma kalau kita familiar dengan filem-filem Bruce Lee, before and after dia menyerang lawan mulut dia tak reti duduk diam. Wataaa...! Wachaaaa.... ! Dan macam-macam bunyi lagi. Ramai juga pekerja yang macam ni, sebelum start satu-satu projek dia punya sembang melangit... dah siap project pun dia still let everybody knows dia punya contribution.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. Ninja&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ImPlTxXPfxc/S8fM2S0504I/AAAAAAAAASE/uPijWe9C2tM/s1600/ninja.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="320" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ImPlTxXPfxc/S8fM2S0504I/AAAAAAAAASE/uPijWe9C2tM/s320/ninja.jpg" width="185" wt="true" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Betul-betul berlawanan dengan Kungfu Bruce Lee, pekerja-pekerja bersifat ninja ni low profile. Kadang-kadang tu terlalu low profile sehingga kita nak cari dia pun susah. 9 pagi still breakfast, datang kejap lepas tu... then ...Zasss.. ilang pergi lunch. Datang semula office, pastu dah menyelinap pergi minum petang... arrange meeting kat luar, terus balik rumah. Senang cerita, kaki ngular.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. Rambo&lt;br /&gt;Berlagak hero. Semua benda dia nak buat. Kononnya dunia ni berputar disekeliling dia sahaja. Kalau berjaya takpe juga, kadang-kadang tu berlagak hero... tapi bila last minutes, kelam kabut minta pertolongan kawan-kawan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. Kungfu Jackie Chan&lt;br /&gt;Setiap filem Jackie Chan akan ada satu persamaan. Tak kira macam-mana jalan cerita, di mana kejadian tu, siapa pelakonnya.. . scene gaduh mesti tak serious. Mesti banyak adegan-adegan lucu yang diselitkan. Ramai juga pekerja yang bersifat sebegini. Kononnya taknak tension, so semua pekerjaan tak ambil serious. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. Street Fighter&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ImPlTxXPfxc/S8fNAd7CZPI/AAAAAAAAASM/S5mNDSVcfwI/s1600/street-fighter-doocell.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ImPlTxXPfxc/S8fNAd7CZPI/AAAAAAAAASM/S5mNDSVcfwI/s320/street-fighter-doocell.jpg" wt="true" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Ini pekerja yang tidak tahu ikut procedure. Maybe kerja akan beres, semua setel, tapi bila suruh prepare handover document contohnya, dia akan pening kepala. Suruh submit borang claim, hantar progress report, follow SOP, ikut method statement... etc, semuanya dia tak suka buat. Dia nak buat kerja mengikut cara dia sahaja.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. WWE Wrestling&lt;br /&gt;Bukan wrestling yang dipertandingkan di Sukan Olimpik. Aku referring to wrestling yang diletakkan di bawah Entertaiment TV Guide, bukan kategori Sport. Pekerja yang ada sifat WWE Wrestling ni kita tengok mereka memang rajin kerja. Datang awal, balik tengah malam, kerja bertimbun atas meja, nampak macam busy gila. Tapi... as we all know, semuanya lakonan semata-mata.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;P/s: uiks..rajin tol aku posting benda2 nih..credit pic to pakcik google. ;p&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5797304482994694560-5071437625399413192?l=thestakes.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thestakes.blogspot.com/feeds/5071437625399413192/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://thestakes.blogspot.com/2010/04/10-jenis-pekerja-yang-menjengkelkan.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5797304482994694560/posts/default/5071437625399413192'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5797304482994694560/posts/default/5071437625399413192'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thestakes.blogspot.com/2010/04/10-jenis-pekerja-yang-menjengkelkan.html' title='10 jenis pekerja yang menjengkelkan'/><author><name>The Stakes</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://bp3.blogger.com/_ImPlTxXPfxc/R7TVy04ek-I/AAAAAAAAABg/Zu4j5ANGtgw/S220/2008-02-15_075115.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ImPlTxXPfxc/S8fMnBy-8iI/AAAAAAAAARs/ymjIKZZkb38/s72-c/tai-chi.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5797304482994694560.post-8264587663548552030</id><published>2010-02-02T19:56:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-02-02T19:56:51.419-08:00</updated><title type='text'>HUSBANDS FOR SALE!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia, &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif;"&gt;A store that sells husbands has just opened in New York City , where a woman may go to choose a husband. Among the instructions at the entrance is a description of how the store operates.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia, &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia, &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif;"&gt;You may visit the store ONLY ONCE!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia, &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif;"&gt;There are six floors and the attributes of the men increase as the shopper ascends the flights. There is, however, a catch .... You may choose any man from a particular floor, or you may choose to go up a floor, but you cannot go back down except to exit the building!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia, &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif;"&gt;So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband. On the first floor the sign on the door reads: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia, &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia, &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif;"&gt;Floor 1 - These men have jobs and love the Lord.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia, &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia, &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif;"&gt;The second floor sign reads:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia, &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif;"&gt;Floor 2 - These men have jobs, love the Lord, and love kids.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia, &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia, &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif;"&gt;The third floor sign reads:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia, &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif;"&gt;Floor 3 - These men have jobs, love the Lord, love kids and are extremely good looking.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia, &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif;"&gt;'Wow,' she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going. She goes to the fourth floor and sign reads:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia, &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif;"&gt;Floor 4 - These men have jobs, love the Lord, love kids, are drop- dead good looking and help with the housework.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia, &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif;"&gt;'Oh, mercy me!' she exclaims, 'I can hardly stand it!' Still, she goes to the fifth floor and sign reads:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia, &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia, &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif;"&gt;Floor 5 - These men have jobs, love the Lord, love kids, are drop- dead gorgeous, help with the housework, and have a strong romantic streak.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia, &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif;"&gt;She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the sixth floor and the sign reads:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Georgia, &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif;"&gt;Floor 6 - You are visitor 4,363,012 to this floor.

Memang wanita sangat kuat dicengkam oleh pengaruh emosi. Namun emosi sahaja tidak akan menukarkan khayalan kepada kenyataan. Anda sebenarnya sedang dilamun kisah silam bersama, hingga anda merasa masih cinta padanya tanpa menyedari yang dia tidak begitu. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Helvetica Neue&amp;quot;, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Buktinya dia sudah ada pengganti dan akan melangsungkan perkahwinan. Ini jelas membuktikan yang dia tidak lagi memikirkan anda langsung. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Helvetica Neue&amp;quot;, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Kenangan bersama anda sudah dikubur dalam lipatan sejarah dan dikunci dalam kotak kisah yang tidak perlu dibuka lagi. Maka adalah sia-sia yang anda masih mengenangnya. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Helvetica Neue&amp;quot;, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Betapa pun dalamnya rindu anda padanya, itu adalah rindu sepihak, ibarat pungguk rindukan bulan. Bulan tetap mengambang tanpa memikirkan ada pungguk di bumi yang merinduinya. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Helvetica Neue&amp;quot;, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Oleh itu ,belajarlah menganalisa perasaan anda dan memujuk agar perasaan dan pemikiran menerima hakikat bahawa orang yang anda kenang itu bukan lagi milik anda. Malah tidak akan menjadi milik anda selamanya.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Helvetica Neue&amp;quot;, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Kuburkanlah ingatan dan simpanlah kenangan anda sebagai kisah silam yang sudah berangkat dari hidup anda. Jika diteruskan juga anda ibarat mimpi di siang hari. Adalah lebih beruntung untuk beri perhatian pada orang yang ada di hadapan anda kerana dengan cara sedemikian fikiran dan perasaan anda akan terisi episod kisah baru dan lama kelamaan akan memadamkan kisah anda bersama dia.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Helvetica Neue&amp;quot;, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Helvetica Neue&amp;quot;, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"&gt;Jangan membawa kisah silam ke masa hadapan. Kerana cara ini akan membunuh masa depan anda yang masih panjang. Anggaplah itu satu mimpi semalam untuk mainan tidur saja. Adalah membuang masa dan kekuatan untuk mengenang dan memuja, merindui dan mencemburui orang yang sudah tidak ada di sisi kita. &lt;strong&gt;Jangan bodohkan diri&lt;/strong&gt; dan buang usia anda. Mungkin Allah mahu anda membina hidup baru dengan orang lain yang mungkin lebih baik dari yang hilang. Oleh itu sibukkan diri dan dekatkan diri dengan Allah agar anda dapat menerima ketentuan bahawa jodoh anda hanya setakat itu sahaja. Dan Allah juga mahu anda belajar dari kisah silam agar dapat membina kehidupan yang lebih baik supaya kita tidak membiarkan pisang berbuah dua kali, atau jatuh ke lubang buaya dua kali. Carilah ganti agar hati dan persaan terisi dengan baik dan anda lebih terfokus dalam hidup.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div

She must be feeling extremely sad for leaving a husband who is incapable to taking care of the house and the kid. 'cos that is the exact feeling that I have, as I feel that I have failed to provide for the physical and emotional needs of my child, and failed to be the dad and mum for my child. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There was one particular day, when I had an emergency at work. Hence, I had to leave home whilst my child was still sleeping. So thinking that there was still rice leftovers, I hastily cooked an egg and left after informing my sleepy child. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With the double roles, I am often exhausted at work as well as when I am home. So after a long day, I came home, totally drained of all energy. So with just a brief hug and kiss for my child, I went straight into the room, skipping dinner. However, when I jumped into my bed with intention of just having a well-deserved sleep, all i heard and felt was broken porcelain and warm liquid! I flipped open my blanket, and there lies the source of the 'problem'... a broken bowl with instant noodles and a mess on the bedsheet and blanket! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Boy, was I mad! I was so furious that I took a clothes hanger, charged straight at my child who was happily playing with his toy, and give him a good spanking! He merely cried but not asking for mercy, except a short explanation: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Dad, I was hungry and there wasn't anymore leftover rice. But you were not back yet, hence I wanted to cook some instant noodles. But I remembered you reminding me not to touch or use the gas stove without any adults around, hence I turned on the shower and used the hot water from the bathroom to cook the noodles. One is for you and the other is for me. However, I was afraid that the noodles will turn cold, so I hid it under the blanket to keep it warm till you return. But I forgot to remind you 'cos I was playing with my toys...I am sorry Dad..." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At that moment, tears were starting to run down my cheeks...but I didn't want my son to see his dad crying so I dashed into the bathroom and cried with the shower head on to mask my cries. After that episode, I went towards my son to give him a tight hug and applied medication on him, while coaxing him to sleep. Then, it was time to clear up the mess on the bed. When everything was done and well past midnight, I passed my son's room, and saw that he was still crying, not from the pain on his little buttock, but from looking at the photograph of his beloved mummy. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A year has passed since the episode, I have tried, in this period, to focus on giving him both the love of his dad and mum, and to attend to most of his needs. And soon, he is turning seven, and will be graduating from kindergarten. Fortunately, the incident did not leave a lasting impression on his childhood memories and he is still happily growing up. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, not so long ago, I hit my boy again, with much regret. This time, his kindergarten teacher called, informing me of my son's absence from school. I took off early from work and went home, expecting him to explain. But he wasn't to be found, so I went around our house, calling out his name and eventually found him outside a stationery shop, happily playing computer games. I was fuming, brought him home and whack the hell out of him. He did not retaliate, except to say, 'I am sorry, Dad'. But after much probing, I realized that it was a 'Talent Show' organized by his school and the invite is for every student's mummy. And that was the reason for his absence as he has no mummy..... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Few days after the caning, my son came home to tell me, the kindergarten has recently taught him how to read and write. Since then, he has kept to himself and stayed in his room to practise his writing, which I am sure, would make my wife proud, if she was still around. 'cos he makes me proud too! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;Time passes by very quickly, and soon another year has passed. It's winter, and its Christmas time. Everywhere the christmas spirit is in every passer-by... Christmas carols and frantic shoppers.... but alas, my son got into another trouble. When I was about to knock off from the day's work, the post office called. Due to the peak season, the post master was also on an edgy mood. He called to tell me that my son has attempted to post several letters with no addressee. Although I did make a promise never to hit my son again, I couldn't help but to hit him as I feel that this child of mine is really beyond control. Once again, as before, he apologized, ' I'm sorry, Dad' and no additional reason to explain. I pushed him towards a corner, went to the post office to collect the letters with no addressee and came home, and angrily questioned my son on his prank, during this time of the year. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;His answer, amidst his sobbing, was : The letters were for Mummy. My eyes grew teary, but I tried to control my emotions and continued to ask him: " But why did u post so many letters, at one time?" My son's reply was: " I have been writing to mummy for a long time, but each time I reach out for the post box, it was too high for me, hence I was not able to post the letters. But recently, when I went back to the postbox, I could reach it and I sent it all at once..." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;After hearing this, I was lost. Lost at not knowing what to do, what to say... I told my son, " Son, mummy is in the heavenly kingdom, so in future, if you have anything to tell her, just burn the letter and it will reach mummy. My son, on hearing this, was much pacified and calm, and soon after, he was sleeping soundly. On promising that I will burn the letters on his behalf, I brought the letters outside, but couldnt help opening the letter before they turn to ash. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;And one of the letters broke my heart.... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;Dear Mummy, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;I miss you so much! Today, there was a 'Talent Show' in school, and the school invited all mothers for the show. But you are not around, so I did not want to participate as well. I did not tell Dad about it as I was afraid that Dad would start to cry and miss you all over again. Dad &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;went around looking for me, but in order to hide my sadness, I sat in front of the computer and started playing games at one of the shops. Dad was furious, and he couldn't help it but scolded and hit me, but I did not tell him the real reason. Mummy, everyday I see Dad missing you and whenever he think of you, he is so sad and often hide and cry in his room. I think we both miss you very very much. Too much for our own good I think. But Mummy, I am starting to forget your face. Can you please appear in my dreams so that I can see your face and remember you? I heard that if you fall asleep with the photograph of the person whom you miss, you will see the person in your dreams. But mummy, why haven't you appeared? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;After reading the letter, I cant stop sobbing. 'cos I can never replace the irreplaceable gap left behind by my wife.... &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;For the females with children: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;Don't do so much overtime. If you cannot finish the work, it must be some kind of problems within the company, and it is not your sole problem. Feedback to your boss. Endless overtime may not necessary be the answer to the problem. Take care of your health so that you can treasure and take care of your little precious. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;For the married men: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;Drink less, smoke less, cos nothing can replace your good health, not even business nor clients. Try thinking this way, are you able to work till your clients are totally dependent on you? or your boss is totally dependent on you? In this society, no one is indispensable. Take care of your health, so that you can take care of your little precious and your loved ones. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;For those &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: magenta;"&gt;singles&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; out there: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;Beauty lies in loving yourself first. With confidence and loving yourself, you will see the beauty in other things around you. You will be able to work better and happier. Don't let your health be affected by your work or your boss, so nothing matters more than your well being.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"&gt;-credit to Matt for sharing-&lt;credit email="" forward="" matt="" this="" to="" who=""&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5797304482994694560-8637766814019373358?l=thestakes.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thestakes.blogspot.com/feeds/8637766814019373358/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://thestakes.blogspot.com/2009/10/story-worth-sharing.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5797304482994694560/posts/default/8637766814019373358'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5797304482994694560/posts/default/8637766814019373358'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thestakes.blogspot.com/2009/10/story-worth-sharing.html' title='A story worth sharing'/><author><name>The Stakes</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://bp3.blogger.com/_ImPlTxXPfxc/R7TVy04ek-I/AAAAAAAAABg/Zu4j5ANGtgw/S220/2008-02-15_075115.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ImPlTxXPfxc/SupTt0mst9I/AAAAAAAAARQ/CvRUpsfh78g/s72-c/Parent_supporting_child.gif' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5797304482994694560.post-8754758397543934834</id><published>2009-10-28T20:30:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-28T20:30:01.772-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Ganbatte Kundasai Cikgu Mary</title><content type='html'>A friend of me,&amp;nbsp;Mary just&amp;nbsp;flew to Sarawak last 2 days.

They should be blends together to mould our life.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:courier new;font-size:100%;"  &gt;Let's running forward for career, experiences, own satisfation and taking chances but also take a breath.

Read &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Read anything English - books, magazines, brochures, catalogs, signboards and everything. If you’ve been accustomed to reading the newspaper in your mother tongue, choose the one in English from now on. Stick to it.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Set yourself a periodical target to achieve. For example, reading 2 books per month. Then, increase the load to 3 or 4 books. Mix the book genres according to your interest. Start slow and you will improve progressively.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Learning a language, especially a language which is foreign to you, is a gradual process. It takes time. Don’t be discouraged with the amount of new vocabs and grammar you learn every day.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;2. Write&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Write your first sentence in your sketch book, diary, journal, blog and so on. If you’re so scared that someone will see your writing and laugh at it, keep it a secret. Put under your mattress or something. If you blog, assume no one is reading it. Or keep it password-protected. As the time goes by, take your time to review back what you have written for the past 6 months. While the beginning of your ‘writing career’ may sound embarrassing, you will be surprised to see how well you actually can write and how much you have improved.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;3. Speak, and don’t be afraid of mistakes&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The easiest way to avoid mistake is to stop doing things and this is where people go wrong. They assume that those who make less mistake are the better learners, an assumption which is only true inside the classroom. In real world, people who make mistakes learn faster as the experience taught them invaluable lesson. So, start your English conversation with your parents, siblings, neighbours, classmates and peers. Don’t be intimidated when other people surrounding laugh at your attempt and your mistakes. See the difference after 1 month.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;4. Watch English movies without subtitles&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Watching English movies or programs without the subtitles sharpen your listening and auditory skills. Begin with those films or documentaries you have not watched before. Listen to what is being said and interpret the meaning of it, either implicitly or explicitly. Later, when you write, try recalling some of the phrases used in the movie and now you have combined your listening skill with your writing skill into one.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;5. Join courses&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;When circumstances are right, pick and join an English course, which is easily available nearby your neighborhood, in schools or even online, where you can learn from the comfort of your own place. There are many levels of courses available and making the right choice seems to be a daunting task. But fret not. You can always discuss with the program provider to make an initial assessment on which level of English competency you have. You can also test yourself to discover what kind of English learner you are &lt;a title="English Assessment Test" href="http://esl.about.com/library/quiz/blquestion_personality_intro.htm" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;, before proceeding with any English courses.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;credit to:SkorCareer&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5797304482994694560-7164391136712014584?l=thestakes.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thestakes.blogspot.com/feeds/7164391136712014584/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://thestakes.blogspot.com/2008/11/how-to-improve-your-english.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5797304482994694560/posts/default/7164391136712014584'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5797304482994694560/posts/default/7164391136712014584'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thestakes.blogspot.com/2008/11/how-to-improve-your-english.html' title='How to Improve Your English'/><author><name>The Stakes</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='23' height='32' src='http://bp3.blogger.com/_ImPlTxXPfxc/R7TVy04ek-I/AAAAAAAAABg/Zu4j5ANGtgw/S220/2008-02-15_075115.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ImPlTxXPfxc/SRlBmCD15fI/AAAAAAAAAPA/GHl1V4JGK0Y/s72-c/grammar.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5797304482994694560.post-3046409210560009196</id><published>2008-10-12T20:54:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-09-03T22:54:25.685-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Movie Review :: Lord Of The Ring</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ImPlTxXPfxc/SPLG5YRrL_I/AAAAAAAAALE/2B2SuENrcbE/s1600-h/4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5256482404166217714" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ImPlTxXPfxc/SPLG5YRrL_I/AAAAAAAAALE/2B2SuENrcbE/s200/4.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;Lord of The Ring (The Return of The King)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;GENRE(S): Action  Drama  Fantasy&lt;br /&gt;DIRECTED BY: Peter Jackson&lt;br /&gt;RUNNING TIME: 210 minutes&lt;br /&gt;ORIGIN: USA / New Zealand&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ImPlTxXPfxc/SPLHBPJIadI/AAAAAAAAALM/9r8UEdk85Ik/s1600-h/6.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5256482539153418706" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_ImPlTxXPfxc/SPLHBPJIadI/AAAAAAAAALM/9r8UEdk85Ik/s200/6.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;Bird's Eye View&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;This shows a scene from directly overhead, a very unnatural and strange angle.

 &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;" align="center"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:&amp;quot;;font-size:16;color:fuchsia;"   &gt;and solutions seem scarce,&lt;br /&gt;and the rain seems to soak your parade.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are some situations where all you can do&lt;br /&gt;is simply let go and move on,&lt;br /&gt;Gather your courage and choose a direction&lt;br /&gt;that carries you toward a new dawn.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, pack up your troubles and take a step forward -&lt;br /&gt;The process of change can be tough,&lt;br /&gt;but think about all the excitement ahead&lt;br /&gt;if you can be stalwart enough!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There might be adventures you never imagined,&lt;br /&gt;Just waiting around the next bend,&lt;br /&gt;And wishes and dreams just about to come true -&lt;br /&gt;In ways you can't yet comprehend!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Perhaps you'll find friendships that spring from new things&lt;br /&gt;as you challenge your status quo,&lt;br /&gt;and learn there are so many options in life,&lt;br /&gt;and so many ways you can grow!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Perhaps you'll go to places you never expected,&lt;br /&gt;and see things that you've never seen,&lt;br /&gt;or travel to fabulous, faraway worlds&lt;br /&gt;and wonderful spots in between!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Perhaps you'll find warmth and affection and caring&lt;br /&gt;and somebody special who's there&lt;br /&gt;to help you stay centered and listen with interest&lt;br /&gt;to stories and feelings you share.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Perhaps you'll find comfort in knowing your friends&lt;br /&gt;are supportive of all that you do,&lt;br /&gt;and believe that whatever decisions you make,&lt;br /&gt;they’ll be the right choices for you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So keep putting one foot in front of the other,&lt;br /&gt;and taking your life day by day...&lt;br /&gt;There's a brighter tomorrow that's just down the road -&lt;br /&gt;Don't look back!
