Juz maybe . . .

...by shazzain | Labels: Words

Forwarded by Mama...

Maybe. . . we were supposed to meet the wrong people before meeting the right one
so that, when we finally meet the right person, we will know how to be grateful for that gift.

Maybe . . . when the door of happiness closes,
another opens; but, often times,
we look so long at the closed door
that we don't even see the new one
which has been opened for us.

Maybe . . . it is true that we don't know what we have until we lose it,
but it is also true that we don't know what we have been missing until it arrives.

Maybe . . . the happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.

Maybe . . . the brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past;
after all, you can't go on successfully in life until...
you let go of your past mistakes, failures and heartaches.

Maybe . . . you should dream what you want to dream;
go where you want to go,
be what you want to be,
because you have only one life and one chance
to do all the things you dream of, and want to do.

Maybe . . . there are moments in life when you miss someone
-- a parent, a spouse, a friend, a child --
so much that you just want to pick them from
your dreams and hug them for real,
so that once they are around you appreciate them more.

Maybe . . . the best kind of friend
is the kind you can sit on a porch and swing with,
never say a word, and then walk away feeling
like it was the best conversation you've ever had.

Maybe . . . you should always try to put
yourself in others' shoes.
If you feel that something could hurt you,
it probably will hurt the other person, too.

Maybe . . . you should do something nice
for someone every single day, even if
it is simply to leave them alone.

Maybe . . . giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they will love you back. Don't expect love in return; just wait for it to grow in their heart; but, if it doesn't, be content that it grew in yours.

Maybe . . . happiness waits for all those who cry,
all those who hurt,
all those who have searched,
and all those who have tried,
for only they can appreciate the importance of all the
people who have touched their lves.

Maybe . . . you shouldn't go for looks; they can deceive;
don't go for wealth; even that fades away.
Go for someone who makes you smile,
because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright.
Find the one that makes your heart smile.

Maybe . . . you should hope for enough happiness to make you sweet,
enough trials to make you strong,
enough sorrow to keep you human,
and enough hope to make you happy

Maybe . . . you should try to live your life to the fullest because when you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling but when you die, you can be the one who is smiling and everyone around you crying.

Maybe . . . you could send this message to those people who mean something to you, to those who have touched your life, to those who can and do make you smile when you really need it, to those who make you see the brighter side of things when you are really down, and to all those whom you want to know that you appreciate them and their friendship.

Some of the good & bad...

...by shazzain | Labels: Just me, Words

Some very Good and Very bad things ..
The most destructive habit: Worry (I do this a lot..gotta stop)
The greatest Joy: Giving (I like this! but maybe I don't do enough...)
The greatest loss: Loss of self-respect (I think it's still in-tact)

The most satisfying work: Helping others (yes definately!)
The ugliest personality trait: Selfishness (I hate selfish ppl..just hope I don't turn out to be one)
The most endangered species: Dedicated leaders (exactly...look at the politic arena!)
Our greatest natural resource: Our youth (I still have mine :) )

The greatest 'shot in the arm': Encouragement (very true..I need this)
The greatest problem to overcome: Fear (hmm...)
The most effective sleeping pill: Peace of mind (spot on!)
The most crippling failure disease: Excuses (This I do! & have to stop..)

The most powerful force in life: Love (yup...I love my family & true friends)
The most dangerous act: A gossip (I have got to stop this!)
The world's most incredible computer: The brain (need to train it more, remove the blurness!)
The worst thing to be without: Hope (I got hope...)

The deadliest weapon: The tongue (soo true..)
The two most power-filled words: 'I Can' (yeah..I can do it!)
The greatest asset: Faith (I have faith in Allah)
The most worthless emotion: Self- pity (I hate people who wallow in self pity and not do anything about it! enough already...other people have problems too, but they don't show it!)

The most beautiful attire: SMILE! (Have to do this more...)
The most prized possession: Integrity (Do I have this?)
The most powerful channel of communication: Prayer (back to faith too)
The most contagious spirit: Enthusiasm (definately!)

Life ends; when you stop Dreaming,

For "the One"...

...by shazzain | Labels: Words

Since I liked the letter "Coretan Untuk Bakal Suamiku" on Azita's blog (which is in Malay), I decided to translate it to english...hmm feel free to correct where ever necessary, It's a very meaningful letter which I can relate to...:)

hmm...is this considered as a fairy tale too? I just love fairy tales, but they never happen in real life...sigh..

"Assalamualaikum wrt. wbt.

To you, my Future Husband...

I have started writing what is in my heart. I am still wondering whether am I suppose to start looking for the part of me that is missing. My wishes are not based on lust but a desire of a muslimah to find part of her religion. There have been many occasions where I hear the saying “You are made for me / you are the one for me”.

At first I didn’t understand what this meant since its words expressed by those who are ignorant. The blessings and light from Allah have made me finally understand that one day; I will have to fulfill an obligation that has been created just for me, that is you. I am therefore getting myself ready physically, spiritually and intellectually to meet you.

I want our first meeting to look ‘perfect’ in your eyes; even though the fact is that there is imperfectness within myself. I will try to learn and understand the meaning of responsibility that I have to take on while Allah arranges my meeting with you. I try to refrain talking to other men except for work related matters as I am afraid that I may open up and tell them secrets of myself that only you should know since you are part of me and it is only your right to know everything about me, be it the outer or inner side of me.

I worry what I do is not entirely for Allah but for his people. I need you to shield me from this. I worry my prayers are not sincere that may lead me to the hellfire leaving you alone in the heavens. I feel guilty that I may give the love that is rightfully yours to another. I am having difficulty finding you since you are like a diamond in the many glass pieces that shine. But I am sure that your name has been written for me at the heavens, therefore the love will always be in us, with the help of Allah. My duty is not to look for you but to make myself a better person. It’s not easy to find the ‘soleh’ you when my ‘solehah’ is not as good as you. Allah’s promise I will hold in the mission to finding you. “A good man is for a good woman”.

The teenage mind of mine is out looking for love. The maturity hits in and the need for a man beside me is felt. Every time I feel it, I will think of you. There you are waiting for me, but here, I am betraying you if I keep playing with worldly love. Pray for me such that I can defend myself from getting off the track while I pray for my protection at all times.

It’s not your wealth, looks and lineage that I seek in you; it’s enough that our religion binds our love together. As per our prophet’s (pbuh) advice, at the point where you ask for my hand, I will look at you, once, enough to form the compatibleness within us. There is no need to be as rich as Prophet Sulaiman, as handsome as Prophet Yusuf, it’s just enough that your beliefs is as strong as a root, your deeds as our food and your morals as beautiful as value.

“Marry your wife for four things; lineage, wealth, looks and religion. And if you choose religion, you will not regret”. If we meet, I will take good care of this love such that it would not be given before time. I will make syara’ as a fence to us. Make the marriage vow as a “halal” stamp for you to have me. Let us follow the footsteps of our ancestors, Prophet Adam and Siti Hawa who got married before being together so that we could enjoy the marriage bond that promises peace of mind, happiness and inner blessings. Pray that I don’t give up and get lost in my mission to find you because I need you to complete part of my religion.

Yours truly, your Future Wife…."

Friendship ball & BBGS@ Pavillion...

...by shazzain | Labels: Cool stuff, Reunion, Words

To all my friends & blog readers...

Pass it on :)

On the BBGS@Pavillion - Project Revive...
A note from Audrey (my classmate 5sc1 - BBGS98), Batch members read on :)& Let's join the BBGS OGA..

"Girls,

As you know, this previously overworked (but now with the economic crisis, slightly more available) '98 alumni couldn't make it to the amazing reunion spearheaded by Azita, Shaz, and others last year. I just got back from Singapore this morning but managed to make it to the AGM of the (yes, long name) Bukit Bintang Girls School Old Girls Association. A group of our seniors, including those involved with Project Revive, have been very keen to have this society reincarnated in order to bring our girls together in a more concrete and consistent fashion. A primary objective will be a focus on an education fund (named after our most endearing and well loved headmistress, Ms. Elena Cooke) which the society will run under a trust.

Ideas have been mooted and details of proposed changes to the current constitution and the manner in which the association will be run, will be in the next extraordinary General Meeting, in the near future. I have to say, I don't usually have such a privilege nowadays since we're all in all our late twenties dah, but I was the youngest member present! A new committee has been voted in with:

Phang Sow Yoong (who is featured on the back2bbgs blog) as President
Cheong Wei Lee (VP)
Anniza Jamaluddin (Secretary)
Khim Goh (Treasurer)
(Gen Committee)
Joanna Yeoh
Izreen Fara Ismail
Winnie Tang
Izan Satrina
Lai Ying
Audrey Quay

Yours truly has been included in the gen comm, quite likely becos some of our kakaks figured it would be nice to have "young blood" injected in. Note that many of them are in their 30s - 50s. If anything, I would very much want to be representing all of you - I related to them how our class pulled off the great reunion last year (plus souvenirs etc), and that I knew many of the "younger" ones were just as true blue BBGSians who know how to raise funds, run events, and most of all, live and perpetuate the true spirit of BBGS! To ensure that we have a voice, I would invite all of you to join the association - it's been going at a RM3 per year membership but since that's quite leceh, its been proposed that RM100 for life membership for all former BBGS girls should be encouraged. Please let me know if you'd like to join and I'll let you have details of the next meeting soon and once the minutes are out for today's meeting, as much as possible about that.

I won't be able to attend the first part of the August 4th event at Pavilion as I have a court case on but I have committed to be there in the evening. Those of you going, please let me know or come up to me so we can meet up and talk about how we can stay in touch via the association. It's very exciting I think, that we can be part of a pretty major education fund project which will live on, even though our building itself is gone (have to say after seeing all the old schools in Singapore preserved as museums, shopping areas, etc, I just felt...)

Girls, August 4th will be the first time I am stepping into Pavilion, which everyone in my circle of influence knows I consider sacrilegeous. But hey, we need the site, we need to make it something, and we need everyone knows the ethos of the school to come together. You know, I was most touched by what one of the other general committee members, Lai Ying, said, when the nominees were invited to present a short intro speech. She said "I'm not a big shot by the way. I work for my father and we deal in spare parts in Sungei Besi. But I am grateful for what BBGS has done for me and I would like to give back. I miss those old days with my family." I think that truly captures the spirit of BBGS, which was started for girls (considered unworthy of education in the 1890s), including and especially those who were poor and underprivileged (who cared about them but our great teachers and heads, like Ms Cooke who used to go to students houses to help them), and to see the potential in every rough stone to become a berlian. We've never been elitist and always believed in including those whom for some reason or the other, may have been forgotten. Nothing and nobody should be left behind, and even in succeeding, we have been proud, not arrogant. Even though we were considered a premier secondary school for a long time, we never forgot our roots, and I always tell people that after BBGS, none of us ever came out the same - we were always, in whatever way we needed to be, shaped and changed for the better, made more humble, encouraged to be ever more confident, instilled with a sense of responsibility and duty, inspired to dream dreams.

I have to say I just ENJOYED being with BBGSians again - although today I was with other years - it's really a good and productive fellowship that we have with one another. I'm glad that can be now formalised into an active association focused on promoting the interests of education. I would like to share one more thing with my graduating class of '98. We are just as special as all the rest of the old girls, and I think by the continued efforts I see in this group, we should definitely be part of this revamped association. Please try to let us know about joining up as soon as possible.

I know most of us are active on email and FB - add me using xxxx@yyy.com or audreyquay@xxxx.com (but please try very hard not to spam my work address, although I am much more reachable there for urgent matters) and I want to hear from you!

~Audrey"

Celebrate your Uniqueness

...by shazzain | Labels: Words

I'm celebrating my Uniqueness I just hope I find my purpose sooner so that my uniqueness can be utilised :)

Source: Unknown (forwarded emails)
A plum once said, just because a banana lover came by, I converted myself into a banana. Unfortunately, his taste changed after a few months and so I became an orange. When he said I was bitter I became an apple, but he went in search of grapes.

Yielding to the opinions of so many people, I have changed so many times that I no more know who I am. How I wish I had remained a plum and waited for a plum lover. Just because a group of people do not accept you as you are, there is no necessity for you to strip yourself of your originality. You need to think good of yourself, for the world takes you at your own estimate. Never stoop down in order to gain recognition. Never let go of your true self to win a relationship. In the long run, you will regret that you traded your greatest glory - your uniqueness, for momentary validation.

What water can do, gasoline cannot and what copper can, gold cannot. The fragility of the ant enables it to move and the rigidity of the tree enables it to stay rooted. Everything and everybody has been designed with a proportion of uniqueness to serve a purpose that we can fulfill only by being our unique self.

Let us be the best we can be. “Celebrate your Uniqueness”.

45 lessons...

...by shazzain | Labels: Words

Sharing this...I have received this in email many times, but it's always nice to read it again as a reminder...learn & enjoy! I have put down my feelings or thoughts at the moments beside each lesson...:)

Written By
Regina Brett, 90 years old, of The Plain Dealer, Cleveland, Ohio

"To celebrate growing older, I once wrote the 45 lessons life taught me. It is the most-requested column I've ever written."

1. Life isn't fair, but it's still good. (yup..my life is good)
2. When in doubt, just take the next small step.
3. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone. (trying my best not to hate anyone)
4. Your job won't take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and parents will. Stay in touch. (so guys keep in touch with me...you never know when you'll fall sick :p)
5. Pay off your credit cards every month. (this i have been trying to do, only that income < bills, so yeah still paying)
6. You don't have to win every argument. Agree to disagree. (most of the time I don't care to win, can't be bothered, you think what you want, and I know I'm right! or i continue the argument just to irritate the other person...ahaks)
7. Cry with someone. It's more healing than crying alone. (done this with put...remember put?)
8. It's okay to get angry with God. He can take it. (noted)
9. Save for retirement starting with your first paycheck. (EPF does this for me, but I think it won't be enough!)
10. When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile. (I never resist it, definately will take :p)
11. Make peace with your past so it won't screw up the present.
12. It' okay to let your children see you cry.
13. Don't compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about. (yeah don't compare or even judge others, I'm still trying not too, hey I'm not perfect..at least I try...)
14. If a relationship has to be a secret, you shouldn't be in it. (yeah people, what's up with that? have some self respect...)
15. Everything can change in the blink of an eye. But don't worry; God never blinks.
16. Take a deep breath. It calms the mind.
17. Get rid of anything that isn't useful, beautiful or joyful. (doing this too!)
18. Whatever doesn't kill you really does make you stronger.
19. It's never too late to have a happy childhood. But the 2nd one is up to you and no one else. (I try to be a child at evey oppurtunity I get!)
20. When it comes to going after what you love in life, don't take no for an answer. (hmm...)
21. Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie. Don't save it for a special occasion. Today is special. (exactly...I hate to keep stuff in the showcase..most of our parents do that...)
22. Over prepare, then go with the flow.
23. Be eccentric now. Don't wait for old age to wear purple. (but I don't like wearing purple!)
24. The most important sex organ is the brain.
25. No one is in charge of your happiness but you. (I remember this everytime something happens)
26. Frame every so-called disaster with these words, 'In five years, will this matter?' (never thought of looking it that way...gee thanks...)
27. Always choose life.
28. Forgive everyone everything. (can do, but can't forget! how? there's a scar each time...)
29. What other people think of you is none of your business. (I like this!)
30. Time heals almost everything. Give time time.
31. However good or bad a situation is, it will change. (I believe in karma, what goes up must come down, just that I can't really tell when I'm up or down since its always a mix on every different aspect of my life)
32.. Don't take yourself so seriously. No one else does.
33. Believe in miracles. (the problem with me is that I believe in fairy tales!)
34. God loves you because of who God is, not because of anything you did or didn't do.
35. Don't audit life. Show up and make the most of it now.
36. Growing old beats the alternative - dying young. (I'm happy growing old...only that its depressing at times when you don't achieve certains goals, or when you start comparing! - again...don't compare!!)
37. Your children get only one childhood.
38. All that truly matters in the end is that you loved.
39. Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere. (waiting for mine to happen :))
40. If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else’s, we’d grab ours back. (I'm content with the ones I have)
41. Envy is a waste of time.. You already have all you need. (bersyukur...and stop comparing!)
42. The best is yet to come. (still waiting...)
43. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up. (been holding on to this..99% of the time)
44. Yield. (huh?)
45. Life isn't tied with a bow, but it's still a gift. (A beautiful gift)

Friends are the family that we choose for ourselves. So true, and I thank Allah for blessing me with the friends & family that I have today...

Pondering on stuff..

...by shazzain | Labels: Words

Someone said to me that I'm sarcastic, cynical, mean and hurtful, so I guess it's time for a reality check on myself, I have to change, it hurts to hear it, but I guess I too need to be slapped once in a while...

I'm no angel, I make mistakes...& I'm sorry to all of you think that am that...

I once worked with someone who treated me with like he was this someone who can say anything to me, but when I did the same to this person, he called me "rude". Sometimes I do feel I react to how people treat me, but I'm the one being judged every single time. So yeah maybe there's something wrong with me after all...I’m searching for an equilibrium...

something in the mail...

...by shazzain | Labels: Words

This was in the mail today, from my mum...it's soo true..& I'm gonna stop complaining (or at least try)... :)

GRATITUDE is POWER, and here's why....

When you are thankful for what you have - for the friends you have, and for the things you've got, you attract more good people and good things!

People who always complain about what they DON'T HAVE, stay stuck. Complainers attract more things to complain about!

It is a law of life.

It's hard to explain, but you can observe it around you.
We get more of what we dwell upon.

That's why all the spiritual masters have taught the same lesson ..... 'Start by being thankful. Be happy with what you have now, and more will come your way.'

It's practical advice.

IN A NUTSHELL
Every time you say a silent 'thank you' you become more peaceful – and more power.

The wall...

...by shazzain | Labels: Words

This is not my story...but the name of the ppl involved are in here hidden...find it if you can...

I never thought
I could like someone
I build a wall
I never saw you

Something was wrong
Until you came
Even when I was happy
I was still blind

All the sudden
The wall came down
There you were standing
Handsomely...right in front

But why do I feel,
Like you can't see me?
Have you put up a wall?
That I can't see?

You were always there
When I needed you,
And I want to be there
Now...if you need me too

How could I have missed it?
Damn the wall
Now you're gone
I missed my chance

Or are you still there
Secretly waiting for me...?

No story or tale...

...by shazzain | Labels: Words

This just came out...

No stories of my own,
Living on other's life’s,
I am happy when they are,
But I am bored when they're stuck

There's no tale to tell,
Only the diary of others,
When will I find my story?
Only god knows when

Maybe I should change my lifestyle
Or maybe just my job
Maybe I should change my appearance
Or maybe just hold on

Feeling like a loser,
With no tale to tell
Others have their stories,
Sometimes I wish were mine

Another story 4u

...by shazzain | Labels: Words

Here's what my mum sent me - forwarded emails, but I like the content...here to those who judge people so easily :)

As the saying goes "don't judge a book by it's cover!" ---> time & time again...but we still do huh?

There was an Indian Chief who had four sons. He wanted his sons to learn not to judge things too quickly. So he sent them each on a quest, in turn, to go and look at a pear tree that was a great distance away.

The first son went in the Winter, the second in the Spring, the third in Summer, and the youngest son in the Fall. When they had all gone and come back, he called them together to describe what they had seen.

The first son said that the tree was ugly, bent, and twisted. The second son said no, it was covered with green buds and full of promise. The third son disagreed; he said it was laden with blossoms that smelled so sweet and looked so beautiful, it was the most graceful thing he had ever seen. The last son disagreed with all of them; he said it was ripe and drooping with fruit, full of life and fulfillment.

The Chief then explained to his sons that they were all right, because they had each seen but only one season in the tree's life.

He told them that you cannot judge a tree, or a person, by only one season, And that the essence of who they are and the pleasure, joy, and love that come from that life can only be measured at the end, when all the seasons are up.

If you give up when it's Winter, you will miss the promise of Spring, the beauty of Summer, and the fulfillment of Fall!
