By the starting of the blogpost i think i should introduce my family background to all my readers........
Okay, i'm a boy who's the eldest in the family, comprising of 4 other siblings each with the age of 15, 14, 11, and 10 respectively. As, the eldest one i'm always the one who handles my own stuffs and affairs, whether i like it or not. and for my siblings, I had to take care of them, as if i'm their personal babysitter or something like that.
Funny enough, my parents "literally" doesn't care about anything about me, my study, my life, my blah and blah and blah ( maybe the "parent don't care about me" feeling is formed because of hormonal disruption, so, yeah maybe i'm wrong...). all they want to see is RESULTS, nomatter how hard i worked for in order to strive for the goal. For example, my parents don't care for my PMR studies and don't even supervise me in my preparation for PMR. i can still remember i played DOTA during PMR......... (haiz..... feeling lucky for having such "nice" parents??)
about my parents ignorant attitude, I'M ACTUALLY OKAY WITH IT, cause it actually molds a more independent "me". but, the thing that i'm not okay is...... WHY SHOULD I LOOK AFTER MY SIBLINGS WHILE THEY HAVE THE ABILITY TO TAKE CARE OF THEMSELF??? after all these years of ignorance and YOU ASK ME TO TAKE CARE OF THE RESPONSIBILITY THAT YOU ONCE DON'T CARE TO TAKE!!??
grr........ well, my parents do care, till i turned 12 and reached secondary school.........
SO, i'm sorta half-independent now...... having the full authority to plan my time, where to go, which tuition to take (though my parents think going for no tuition is the best), what time to study, what time to play, what to cook for myself, what to eat, what to buy, and what to do with my moneys.......... i think i will survive now even if i'm being thrown away and had to live alone......
Well, i really hope i have an older brother of sister who can help me with all my troubles and etc etc........ well, i prefer a sister more...... *.* (i have no wish to further more elaborate on that)
SO, all in all, I'M THE ELDEST IN THE FAMILY DOESN'T MEAN I'M A PARENT, K??
I'm not angry. I'm just Solemn-ing in justifying my unshakable stand. If you ask me to take care of my siblings as if they are handicapped people who can't even look over their own shoulder, my answer is still going to be the same : "NO"
Er..... yeah, actually i've been a drummer for about a year already..... Here to share about my thoughts about being a drummer....... in my usual lame way.... ^.^
First of all, drumming is a tempo giving technique which involves hand-leg coordination which is the easiest compared to piano, guitar and violin. so, if you guys decide to learn some music instrument to impress people or particularly *ahem*someone*ahem*, i suggest that you learn drumming.
however, according to price catalogue, drum is the most expensive musical instument among the affordable ones, each with minimum price of RM1000++. so, i suggest again, better be yourself and don't show off wanting to be so pro la............
drumming drumming drumming.... there are various encounter when i started out my drumming career (if i ended up as a professional drummer) where i turned out to be having a lot of things to say. One of them is like this :
ENCOUNTER 1 okay, it's one of the practice involving me-drummer, and a bunch of aunties who are a-little-bit-showoff for me. here's some of the lines.
"hey kid, your tempo too fast la..... (actually it's them - the aunties who are singing at a slower tempo)" "aunty, you guy's tempo become more and more slow la....." "O.O.Oooo.... okay we'll try...."
~then they sing slowly again........~
ENCOUNTER 2
"okay kid, this part i want you to stop completely and i want no music. we'll sing ourself (that means "solo-ing" without any music accompaniment)"
~then they sing, with their tempo getting slower and slower~
"Now play your drum.... OOi... why your drumming tempo weird weird de????" "Aunty, you guys sing more and more slow la......"
HAIZ~ -.-"
i start to be confused whether i'm the one who's suppose to be giving the tempo or following the inconstant tempo given by them.................
According to some scientific researches, most people hate their looks regardless of how good-looking they are. This is due to some psychological factors in people.
well, if i say about reading i guess there aren't much who read about "NArnia"
i'll change my question.....
Ever watch Narnia????
Guess a lot of you do....
well, it's a movie circling around four children (Peter, Edmund, who went into a fantasy kingdom named Narnia and helpm to restore peace to it with the help of Aslan, the lion who was the King of the Narnia.
as you guys watch the movie, you may found some of the background of the story is actually based on christianity, as you CAN't see, i dare say. this book is written by C.S.Lewis, which is known as a novelist by most of the readers. But as for me, i think you guys should had a close look on this novelist :
"In addition to his career as an English professor and an author of fiction, Lewis is regarded by many as one of the most influential Christian apologists of his time; Mere Christianity was voted best book of the twentieth century by Christianity Today in 2000. Due to Lewis's approach to religious belief as a skeptic, and his following conversion, he has been called "The Apostle to the Skeptics."
see?? he's not only a mere novelist, but he's also a christian!!
And 1 more thing that interest me the most is in a scene in the first movie : the Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. In this scene, one of the kid, Edmund, indulged in darkness as he followed the white witch as her apprentice but soon he regretted it. but there's no backing out. So, in order to redeem Edmund back into the good side, Aslan suggest to trade his life for Edmund's, a life for aother life. Then, Aslan's killed and Edmund gained his freedom.
Aslan's dead. Aslan's dead but he rosed again after 3 days.
you have to believe me in this, or you can go watch the movie yourself.
yes, the king, Aslan's dead but is alived again in 3 days.....
sounded familiar?? The story really happened in the history.
it happened 2000 years ago, when Jesus of Nazareth died on a crucifix for the sake of humanity and is rosen again after 3 days of his death???
now, you may ask :"why for humanity, what the heck had he done??"
okay, good question. i'll try to sound simple and conclude all this in 4 main points:
1. God loves the world and all the people living in it, that's you and me. 2. But people sinned. you can't denied that you sinned, or do bad stuffs (theoritically), remember, even sin like lying, envying, hate people is counted as sin. 3. God still loves you even you sinned. i'm serious and pefectly sure of that 4. God sent his son, Jesus to redeem you and me, life for a life.
so, the whole truth is like this, easy as that. i really hope you can understand this four whole point and remember it for the rest of your life.
Okay, now you maybe asking :" so what??"
Okay, Good question. how do you feel when someone whom you don't know helped you out from your trouble??? okay, imagine if you owe someone a big sum of money but someone else paid the debt for you. What do you feel?
Yes, you should feel grateful for what the person done for you.
what exactly had Jesus done for humanity. all i can say is, it's a painful death :
ouch.
so, be grateful and be thankful for what JEsus had done.
