I Have Surrendered My Puffs

It had just crossed my mind that I had not held a ciggy to my mouth for like more than couple of years already. Off lately, somehow the lips and lungs feel like want to acquire back the taste of the smoky inhalation.

And it has to be a menthol. Either Salem or Dunhill will be fine. No, no Marlboro though. Don't like and don't know why. Not brand prejudice, just not the acquired taste.

Other names ? Never tried, never wanted to try anyhow. Just one thing - inhaled once a Gudang Garam (eon years back) - yanked out that alien stick from my mouth immediately - I would've spit it out unladylike-ly if not for my formal office suit I was donning --> have to preserve working image (*smirk*), some more was at my working place - which has a, so called - 'prestigious' ambiance. (*double-smirk*)

That taste from the Gudang Garam (GG) brand is foul - at least to me ! Unspeakably strong. And people say this production had more tar in it than others. Whether verified or not - I don’t know.

And that once you get accustomed to GG's inhalation, you will find that other brands are too mild in comparison, and just don't have the same 'KicK'. So, in the end, you will be going back to GG more and more, and MoRE !

Therefore, it's very bad, very very bad - to health. Not that smoking other brands is not as bad - it is. Just that perhaps GG may be far more detrimental. So, if you are already an existing smoker, but yet a GG acquired - stay away okay? Why put yourselves in a deeper health scare than you probably or may be already in. (*triple-smirk*)

I know - that includes me. But no, I am not a heavy or chain smoker, just a social smoker - if you know what that terminology means. Well, like - one pack of ciggy of 14 sticks (during those days they have that) - I will only 'use' half of it in a duration of say - a month? And the rest will be left to 'rot' .. i.e. become soggy, cause most of the times I don't have the urge to puff. Unlike commonly for most serial or serious puffers - I deal with stress in a different way ..

Well? Still can't comprehend?  Try again. Hmmm ...

Welcome 2012 !!

A new year has dawned, 

Farewell 2011,

Hope year 2012 will be a better one for me.

Welcome New-Year, Welcome New-Beginnings

So, will you? Please ?

Will you really promise me not to smoke Gudang Garam cigarettes again? It is very strong - I don't want you to be further addicted to smoking than you already are now. It is not good for your health. 


I know you had said you won't smoke it again - and I hope you can keep your word on this. Cause this concerns your health. And I don't want to have your health deteriorated prematurely. I want to be able to see you around, be near me, until you are well into your golden age. 


So, will you? Please ?

What A Women Wants, If Only Men Realise It

Women generally just want to be made to feel she's important, cherished, appreciated, loved, cared, a priority (not necessary need to be the highest) in their loved one's life, heart and actions ...

 ~ eVe ~

That's not too much to ask for, is it ? 

A male acquaintance commented that .. "we (women) are asking for the sun"... 

I told him, "No, we are merely asking for a normal sunshine." 

I Went Away ..

The more than a week long holidays that I had taken recently, was really good to my emotional wellbeing. Though I had put on a bit of weight during that time from feasting too much, overloading my stomach. 


But I had a great rest – a mental one that is. People say if you find yourself in a rut whether mentally, emotionally or even spiritually – it's best to go away somewhere – for a breather, sort of like removing yourself from the uninspiring place that you are in, to another place with different view, different scenery, different surroundings, and that it might just channel your mentality, emotionally or spiritually into a more focused state. For spiritual aspect, you have got to find a more serene quiet place.


Back to me, I had felt I had been able to conclude on a few decisions that had to be made, on some issues of my life, issues I felt had been hovering over my head – waiting and lingering for an answer, in which I had difficulties coming to one. So, it worked out well in the end. I do think now I have a clearer inkling on where I should be heading now at this point of my life – mentally, emotionally and spiritually.


Below are a few pictures of my getaways ..

God Bless The Japanese Tsunami Victims

The recent earthquake (on March 11, 2011) in Japan that resulted in a major tsunami which caused a terrible massive flood is indeed utterly devastating. Nature's wrath is indeed unpredictable and unforeseeable.

That goes just to show what we have long known but choose to take it lightly – that human life is really fragile. One minute we're breathing, the next minute we might probably be gone. Well, the old time sayings of 'Take each day to enjoy it as if it's the last day of your life' may hold useful and relevant come to think of it.

My thoughts and prayers are with the people of Japan – especially the ones who are directly suffering the calamities and the ones indirectly suffering in which perhaps their loved ones are greatly affected.

My prayers to the victims ...

Amen.

My Focus !

One thing I would like to thoroughly change myself is to have the mighty ability to remain focus on the current state of tasks or thoughts or even moods/emotions ESPECIALLY when I sit down to write.


Thoughts, ideas, inspirations seem to come as fast as they could go too. That's what usually gets me very, very frustrated. I could not hold on to it fast enough to narrate it down. My focus ... The first few sentences are often the toughest ones for me. That's why I can never be a technical writer.. I excel very much in creative writing.

Gone were the days when carefree leisurely mood dictates my writings of stories/topics. Or perhaps I haven't dug enough deep down inside just yet. Or perhaps I'm afraid too. Or maybe I'm unconsciously evading because I don't want to? But then I will have too..

Because my writing desk has a nice and inspiring view now that I've shifted it near the window.

I could see sunrise, Komtar, Pg Bridge, Pg ferry (albeit 2cm in size - ^.^), planes cruising over and by, birds flying high, the blue sea, view of Seberang Perai, and last but not least, the best part - large white clouds in a vast of clear blue sky just above me whenever I lift my head up high...

I have no excuse now not to write more and write better as well ... I'll force myself if I have too..
