Fate, Life or Decision?

Each one of us goes through tough and rough times. Some of face the same problem almost everyday, some may confront challenges that occurs in the chance of one in a millionth, while others may easily bypass these problem without much efforts.

But it all comes down to whether is it our individual fate that had already been decided, or life's just like that, or the decision we make that had led us into that struggle. I've witness and also encountered certain problems in which I'd normally say "I think it's fate, you know... No matter what I do, it just never goes my way... Maybe I'm not made for it..." I've been told whenever something wrong happens that "Shit happens... Life's a bitch... Live with it or die without it..." Not to forget when I sometimes make mistakes, and they tend to 'cause severe damage (hurt someone's feeling so deeply, financial loss, etc) and I'd get, "It was your choice, you should have seen it coming..." I don't know which is which.

Well, I'm curious, what about other people in the world? What do they see it as? Was it really fate, and that we can never beat our fate? Is it life that we can stereotype telling everyone the same thing, just because it happens all the time? Or is it our individual choices and decision that led us to misery and suffering? Which is which?

Don't get me wrong, this is not about pointing fingers or trying to blame something when things go wrong (but I assure you, for whatever situation, anyone and everyone will need to blame someone - whether it is oneself or another; otherwise we will not have a reason to do anything at all) But what could possibly be the reason behind the misfortunes? Is there such thing as luck? Or Miracles? Or is it just plain hard-worked efforts? Can things turn around, for the better, should we try and change stuffs as it is into something else?

I can't really say what is and what is not, and I'm certainly in no position to assure that one's fate cannot be change, life is always unfair or one doesn't have the choice at all. What I can say is that, for as long as I'm alive...

I will continue fighting on, pushing forward, even if it's against my fate and all odds...
Because it is my own life, and nobody else's, giving me the power to govern my own rules and principals...
For this is the decision I've chosen and made, and I shall live with it...

Simply because I believe there's something favorable on the other side...

How about you? I mean try take some time and give it a thought.
What has it been for you? Would you want to try and change it?
What approach would you take?

Welcome Me Powershot Into Me Family!

New Shoes!

I've upgraded myself to Admiral! Hahaha, well I used to have a pair of Converse-walkabouts, but due to heavy usage to do everything else except walking, it went to the rubbish bin! *sobs* So after several years (I believe I'm mature enough to get another pair =P), I decided to get a replacement - but no longer Converse / North Star (School kids stuff *grins*), I gotten myself a pair of Admiral's!

Tadah~!!

Can you believe it that I'm a size 8?
While most of my other shoes are of size 9 or 10...
Admiral packs a bigger size than expected, haha!


Another look at my proud-of new shoes =D

.
.
Alright enough of my new shoes,
I'm pretty sure you'll be sick of it,
if I'd show you anymore
(Oh yes, there's more! =P)
.

Just not to spoil your mood, here's something I saw the other night:


Oh that's no dirt above the moon crest...
It's actually a bright start and the moon crest...
Unfortunately my compact camera couldn't capture what I saw...
But this will do!

What'd ya think?
=D

Wootza! Zzzz

Today would be my third day of work as a full time employee. Been excited about having to start off my career ever since I could even remember the term 'Career'... So Monday was a little plain, I was actually expecting lots and lots of work, but I guess the company's very good to me, all I had to do is just relax and try to get along with the others, while reading up some stuffs.

I can't take it no more!!

So I decided to take the initiative to ask about. "What's there to do?" and finally my 'prayers been answered'; I was finally given a task, *me LIKES* and I was motivated to work my fullest! Well, all those reading earlier came in handy as it provided me with some what understanding of the idea, and instantly I had numerous ideas in which I can conceptualize. However, the bad part is that I've to develop the concept itself, so hence, my trouble starts. Though I'm very much excited about the task, but at the same time having to do the development, well that's a different story.

I do hope I'll be able to keep up the spirit,
and show my best attitude in work,
'cause I wanna get confirmed and promoted!
*teehee*

A Dinner Together to Bid Farewell

We weren't sure as to when we're gonna have a reunion again, for the intake of UC3F0911ITP, so we decided to hold one few days before raya, just a day before our dear friend, Ouzair heads back to Mauritius... It was also to celebrate our graduation from college (well, not officially graduating, but yeah still works the same =P). Unfortunately, not everyone could attend the dinner as some had to head home earlier than expected. Luckily, most of us were there! =) We had a great dinner together, full of chit chats and laughter, along with a great buffet for all of us... We were so full that night, we couldn't move much by the end of the day...

We were there early to score a good parking site...
and went around randomly taking pictures...
I took out my compact camera, switched to sunset mode and voila!

But when it's back to auto mode, I got this instead...
Wasn't really what I was opting for, but I like the details of the clouds though =)


Yea I guess this is pretty obvious where we had our dinner...
But not quite right, in fact, we had our dinner at the next building,
Sunway Pyramid Tower's Atrium Cafe =D


I like this ornament =)




The food weren't that all great, BUT
IT WAS GOOD ENOUGH TO SATISFY each and every one of hungry stomachs!
The amount of meat we took, especially Lamb!
I tell you, that's 1 week (at least) worth of exercise!
*gulps*



Us guys eating, fooling around and enjoying every moment..







Yeah, snapping picture as well =P


This girl is to be given an applause,
she's one of the sporting girls I know, who attends most of our gatherings..
Jusprith is a name not to forget xD

Oh just so to let you know, she's the only girl (again)
at this dinner, hahaha









Hahaha more pictures of us fooling around, during and after our meals =P


LOOK AT WHAT OUR BILL CAME UP TO?!
there were 16 of us!!
Yesh, as the others have said, it was a GANGBANG! =P



And soon enough it was time for us to take group pictures
I think the sephia has its take on giving a better feel =)


Thereafter, we all headed home...



AND WE GOT UP LIKE 5AM the next freaking morning!!!




We were on the road by 6am,
on the way to the airport...


look what I saw in the back seat?
and I thought I was blur due to the early time of the day...
Took this picture just to make sure =P




We were at Burger Kings, but we didn't order anything...
Just sat there, chatting and laughing away, also yawning a little =P
What?? We got home the night before at midnight, and
woke up the next morning at 5am, what you expect? xD



Then, it was time for Ouzair to head off...
*sobs* Another friend leaving...
*being dramatic* heart says don't go, but mind had no choice but to let go...
(Gosh that sounded gay!)


One last group picture before, he boards the plane...


.
.
Oh oh, did I mention we were planning to obstruct his journey?
We wanted to tell the officers around, that there's a man
who wants the hijack the soon-to-land plane,
and had brought the following items along:


We wanted to call him to say,
"Yo Ouzair, you forgot your [item name from above]..."
*snickers*


If you don't know who I was talking about since the beginning,
well this is Ouzair =)


We'll miss you buddy!
Take care, and I hope to see ya again soon...
by then we'll have another eating-chatting-laughing session again!
All the best in whatever you do ya! =)
