It all begins in the year 1996. I was bored and I found an old cassette tape in my sister’s drawer. It appeared that the cassette was taken from my brother’s car. The habit of borrowing and then convert to personal belonging seems to be the culture. Hahaha…

I had it inside my first walkman back then. Listening while commuting to tuition downtown. Back then my mandarin was terrible. I couldn’t even catch a word he sang. Slowly, I start to look into the lyrics. I learn and improve from there. The love songs…. ehmm.

Now occassionally when I am feeling blue, I will definitely play his CD. Like a therapy. Sort of. When i walk down any music stores, I would browse for Chinese music section to see if I missed out any of his cds. Not yet complete but whenever I had chance, I won’t miss it.

Last week, I bought the The Next Eternity ?????(Xia Yi Ge Yong Yuan) from Tower Records in KLCC after the lunch with Linpeh. He’s growing taller horizontally. Hahaha…

I am currently in the Oldtown Coffee with the toppest management meeting meet about watver shit we can talk. Hence, it reminds me of a story. A story of a cup of coffee… and the uniqueness of the coffee itself. This is how the story goes…

” The happiest people in the world are not those who have no problems,but those who learn to live with things that are less than perfect.”

A group of graduates, highly established in their careers, got together to visit their old university professor.
Conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life.
Offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and an assortment of cups – porcelain, plastic, glass, crystal, some plain looking, some expensive, some exquisite – telling them to help themselves to the coffee.

When all the students had a cup of coffee, the professor said: “If you noticed, all the nice looking expensive cups were taken up, leaving behind the simple and cheap ones.
While it is normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and stress.

Be assured that the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee.
In most cases, it is just more expensive and in some cases even hides what we drink.
What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you
consciously went for the best cups… Then you began eyeing each other’s cups.
Now consider this:
– Life is the coffee; the jobs, money and position in society are the cups.
– They are just tools to hold and contain Life, and the type of cup we have does not
define, nor change the quality of life we live.
– Sometimes, by concentrating on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee
God has provided us. Enjoy your coffee!.”

The happiest people don’t have the best of everything.
They just make the best of everything.”

You are the miracle, my friend;
Your life either shines a light OR casts a shadow!
Shine a light & Enjoy the Coffee!!!

KANO (AFP) – Mubarak Muhammad Abdullahi, a 24-year-old physics undergraduate in northern Nigeria, takes old cars and motorbikes to pieces in the back yard at home and builds his own helicopters from the parts.

“It took me eight months to build this one,” he said, sweat pouring from his forehead as he filled the radiator of the banana yellow four-seater which he now parks in the grounds of his university.

The chopper, which has flown briefly on six occasions, is made from scrap aluminium that Abdullahi bought with the money he makes from computer and mobile phone repairs, and a donation from his father, who teaches at Kano’s Bayero university.

It is powered by a second-hand 133 horsepower Honda Civic car engine and kitted out with seats from an old Toyota saloon car. Its other parts come from the carcass of a Boeing 747 which crashed near Kano some years ago.
