Summary – Grab that digital camera and let them go

I am human after all, and human farted hehe… Last entry I was explaining the importance of memories. In my effort to cherish memories, I’ve collected quite a lot of items my entire life. I bet you too must have memorabilia of your own. Maybe the first gift from your loved ones, or your birthday present from “Darjah 2” (Primary School) etc.

Believe me, I have a bag full of those. But.. over time, I found out that the bag is very troublesome to be carried around everytime I moved. (From schooling to university to working). So one day, I make a decision to get rid of all of the items. Everything… But of course after I take pictures of them with my digital camera. In other words.. I am digitalizing my memories to be saved in my pc.

That’s the whole point of this entry. Let go of your stuff. Yes, the items are all important and emotional. But they are taking up spaces. Digitalize them using your camera and save it in your pc. You will see that life will be easier and less clutter without all the items. You can even put password to your folder to keep anyone from prying.

First step to a more organized and less-cluttered life

Do you collect items of memories? and if you do, what would be your most valuable item of all?

————- Personal Note ————–
Just a sneak peak of some of the items I collected. Nothing interesting, but they are some of my valued treasure

Jam Tiruan

I bought this imitation of Omega watch, for RM30… Actually it cost much cheaper than that.. And in 4 months or so, the watch was rusted 🙂 (Padan muka)

wallet

My first wallet in my life, bought I think in 1990 🙂

sweets

My sister Mira was about 4 years old, she was enjoying the sweets when I asked her for one, and I told her that I like it very much. Later that evening, I travelled back to KL and suddenly I noticed that sweets was put in my bag… She wanted me to have them hehe 🙂

Summary – Are you one of the unique ones?

You may have noticed that I always like to look back into my past memories. Some people dislike this and take that as being stuck in the past and not being progressive. Well I am progressive. From not having any blog, now I have one.

For me, memories are what make us alive. I like to know exactly how I lived. Not that I will do a diary, just so that.. I will know how I am in the past.. A treasure.

What do you think? do you prefer to forget your past or cherish them?

There are however some people who like to live in the past. For example, a man who is 30 years old, but still behaving like teenagers.. loitering around in shopping complex or spend time flirting with girls. Now that is just ridiculous. Of course teenager’s life is very exciting. Some may say that it is the best time of their life, not having to worry about responsibilities etc.

We can always wander back to those day and smile, but the reality is we are now older and the world we lived in is changing every day. So must we. We need to go to work to better ourself and earn money. That money need to be saved for retirement plan. Family must be taken care of. It’s cruel.. that we need to follow this rule but it is the way things are nowadays. Suck it up and do what you must.

Suddenly I remember fairy tale stories like Peter Pan, where nobody grow up.

There are however another type of people… And I must say that these are some of the most interesting and unique people in the world. They grow up.. they know their responsibilities and they perform them excellently. But in the same time, they still maintain in them the happiness of a child, the rebellious and free-spirit of a teenager, the passion and energy of a young man and the wisdom of an old man 🙂

I hope I can be one of them…

————— Personal Note ———–
I am going to share to you one of the most embarassing memories in my life. I don’t think anything I’ve done can top this. Everytime I remember it, I will close my eyes and hope it never happened. Why I’m telling you.. because hopefully after this.. I will not be that embarassed. (Now that the whole world knows it already)

During my study time, I am very interested to learn Silat (still do). There was one time, my partner and I was called by our Silat teacher and was asked to show the others a silat rehearsed fight. So there were us performing the fight. One thing about us two, is that when we practise, it will always be very serious-like, complete with face expression and shouting. After the fight finished… we were sitting with our friends when one of them whispered to me that I have farted quite noticably during the fight.. WAAAAAAA (blush)

Don’t let me be the only one here.. put up here ur most embarassing moment. U don’t even need to display ur nickname 🙂 Let’s spill them out from our chest (anonymously if you want) and let’s laugh and be laughed at hehe (this is me laughing at myself)

A first grade teacher had twenty-five students in her class and she presented each child in her class the first half of a well known proverb and asked them to come up with the remainder of the proverb. It’s hard to believe these were actually done by first graders. Their insight may surprise you. While reading these keep in mind that these are first graders, 6-year-olds, because the last one is classic!

1. Don’t change horses……until they stop running.
2. Strike while the………bug is close.
3. It’s always darkest before……Daylight Saving Time.
4. Never underestimate the power of ……. termites.
5. You can lead a horse to water but ……… how?
6. Don’t bite the hand that …………. .looks dirty.
7. No news is………………………..impossible.
8. A miss is as good as a ……………… .Mr.
9. You can’t teach an old dog new ………….. math
10. If you lie down with dogs, you’ll …..stink in the morning.
11. Love all, trust ……………………………..me.

15. Happy the bride who………..gets all the presents.
16. A penny saved is ……………………. not much.
17. Two’s company, three’s ………. …..the Musketeers.
18. Don’t put off till tomorrow what …..you put on to go to bed.
19. Laugh and the whole world laughs with you, cry and ……..you have to blow your nose.

I am sure you have read this.. it may not be from first grader.  But since I had had some good laugh reading them, I would like to share them with you

I’m not that familiar with most of the proverb though so if you know the actual ending of the phrase, please let me know via comment kay?

Enjoy your Sunday!! 🙂
