My student got a high distinction in her Grade 1 exam today. :)I feel so proud. She earned it. ^-^Ah, haven't felt this for quite some time, I've gotta do this more often!

When I say that 'I am a Buddhist', I am not shouting that 'I am good, better than you or even close to being pure'. Instead I'm shouting that 'I was lost in the pains, unsatisfactoriness and frustrations of the world, but now I'm walking a path that leads to progressive lessening of my greed and ignorance, lessening my attachments and sufferings day by day.'When I say 'I am a Buddhist' I don't

Been quite a while now.... Every night, for the past few nights, it has been quite tiring and dreadful. Too much coughing and heaving breathing (or lack of it).... from phlegm stucked in somewhere from the nose through to the throat and lungs. Then, yesterday, I had enough.For almost 3 hours, I took this bowl, filled it with hot water and inhaled and exhaled those precious moisture down my throat

Dearie Blig,Travel adventure continues. So, I had "not" expected. Anyway, just thought I drop in a word or two here. Am at a 'backpacker's. Mannn..I have not been in one in,say, 10 yrs! (Nor, do I expect to be in one). Great thing is, it has internet facilities, which is great... love it! Love the idea,that I can still be "connected" to things I am familiar with. Blue Mountains is where I am

Kadampa Meditation Retreat21st May -23rd May 201022nd May (10pm)Dear Blig,Just thought I should write something out of this experience. What I'm thinking now isn't much,really. Sense of peace? Ah,yes! But also, the same ol, 'ah, I should meditate more', and 'oh,I should do this more often' keeps ringing in my head, after each sitting session. The 'not enough' and 'the session was simply too short

Dear Blig,I managed to walk the dogs today-on my own! The 27kg on my right and the 42kg on my left.Not to mention, trying relentlessly to pull back a whole mass of muscles!But I think I did well, got them off right at the start, firmly pulling the leash tightly next to me, side by side. Nope,I did not let them overpower me... I must say, it was a struggle in the beginning but, Sumo knows who's

Dear Blig,I'm starting to talk to myself again. :) 1) Big 30 this year. Love it! 2) Find that there is great improvement in my music appreciation and understanding. The point where the music sinks in and you just forget about all the theory and live it. It's something like the Buddhist teachings as well, you can learn all the terminologies and remember all the precepts...but one day, the day you

Dearest Blig,My little refuge. Happy New Year 2010! Looking at plants grow is definitely a satisfying feeling! I have a large bowlful of cherry tomatoes and cupful of strawberries (which I don't eat, never into strawberries anyway?!?) and the bowl cherry tomatoes keeps topping up everyday! Ahh! This year, my plants are doing quite well. I love summertime. Had a couple of longish eggplants already

Dear Blig,I'm at Gold Coast now and I've got 15 mins to blog. I'm really enjoying myself here and have two really wonderful people with me all the time. Did fun things like swimming, sauna, gym, beach swimming, shopping, eating, games.Feels really good.

Dear Blig,2009 is coming to an end. Year of adventure!! 2010 is another new adventures!!I have a bloggers block today. Seems to me that the more I try to rationalise, understand, 'crack the code' and figure things out, the more baffled I am. In fact, it's almost like building a pyramid on a deck of cards. Trying to stay equanimous is no easy feat! There will always be times when I want more,more

Try my best to try to keep up with all the stories and "catching up" But really, it's almost impossible to catch up nowadays. Unless you're married to em.

It was one of THE BEST orchestral work I have ever listened to. Apparently, this is the second most played piece next to Handel's Messiah. It was breathtaking, it was enchanting, it was superb, it was mersmerizing, it was just beautiful. Love the choir, love the

Blig- Listening to: Classics, lazy to list em.(ie,moonlight sonata, nutcracker, etc etc)Been: organizing, planning, thinking (slowly), enjoying the peace & tranquility.I know-this is the best time for meditation,but, the willpower to get one to sit down and sit still is, huge. I guess taht is what is meant by Sila,Samadhi,Panna. Sila,to get the morality right is the first part,the foundation.

Dear Blig,Today,I just want to type something,I know I have something 'deep' to say.Today,I just felt inner confidence and peace within, despite 'turbulent' times.If I think about it, turbulent isn't so much - just the fact that I expect a pay rise instead, I got greater workload.

Another year has passed. Another birthday had passed. Oct 9 2008 - one day before the Black Friday,a day after Msia PM announced that he will not contest UMNO march election.

Blig, I adopted Ms Ho's blog title as the title of my entry today. "Greener Pasture" because,it gives a really positive feel. A mix of hope and optimism. A pretty title. And if I immerse myself if this title, perhaps, I will grow into such a person (again). Also, I thought I would post 3 blogs today, as I have 3 separate topics to talk about.Maybe pictures will tell 'stories' all on it's own. 1)

Thoughts not worth mentioning in blog- deleted.My pillars of strength will be visiting soon. My pillars of strength. My pillars of strength. Today is my parents' wedding anniversary.Loyalty, responsibility and commitment, is it already extinct nowadays? Nah, I shouldn't say that- most of my friends are engaged,getting married, married, starting their own family. And it's all about loyalty,

Dear Bliggie,This weekend is one of the highest tide of the year.But,I still cannot figure out what triggered this. Good dragonboat,high endorphin?

Dear Blig,Hens' nightI have just returned from a friends hens' night party. Perhaps, not the best party to go to for a single person like me. Especially when it affects one so. However, the bride-to-be is such a gorgeous person, although I hardly know her (have only met her once) but I feel as though I have known her for a v.v.long time.

Happiness. Someone once told me that happiness is just a reflection of unhappiness.I never did understood it as well then. I guess, one would not have known truly,how valuable happiness is until he/she is faced with unhappiness. Therefore, a happy life, is an ignorant life? Only when one is not prepared to face the other side, I suppose. Then again, how much preparation can a person do? Also, I

Something just crossed my mind just now. One of my student I'm tutoring,took me by surprise when I gave her homework,only to see her hand in her homework with pages of internet downloads, and her typewritten homework on her "school laptop". Now,it all seems just-so-average, but for me, I'm simply amazed to find out that every student in her class,is required to rent a laptop from school for $1k

Dear Blig,Firstly, it's such a warm day today. It has been such a warm start of the year.New Years' eve at 42degrees, New Years day at 40 degrees, and today,just the 5th day of the new year, it's at 38 degrees. At now, at 10.20pm, I am still feeling warm!! Tips on cooling down:1)Drink a bottle of water every hour2)Soak a bath towel,spread a sleeping bag on the coolest area of the house,bring

Dearie Blig,I thought I shld write something in here today. Was a bit hesitant, but I guess, this is, afterall, my everyday thoughts and I just want to be true to myself. I'm going to Sydney this weekend,taking a flight at 7am, arrive Syd at 830,drive for 2hrs to the forest monastery and meditate. (Ma, before you freak out, it's all safe, all organized, all planned and all paid for. And most

Composer: Mozart, 1787, Age: 30Quick entry:Part one,very exciting and interesting. The cast played their role extremely well, voice is superb, the storyline, upbeat. ^-^ Love it! Now I find, that operas keep one awake.....much more awake than orchestral works! But, I still find orchestral work more subtle and sensitive, resounds deep within. Whilst, operas are much more loud-in-your-face, like

Dearie Blig,Firstly, ma took to heart the "wifes/husbands diary" entry,thinking it was mine!Gosh!No ma..it was a JOKE! This further proves how women put things into their head and makes it turn like a washing machine. Very unnecessary!!Latest-My final exam result was sweet! :D Distinction never did occured to me whatsoever, considering the fact that the exam wasn't music oriented. However, it

Dear Blig.The journey has,sort of, come to the end. Year 2007, certainly an inspiring year for me. All the hard work,paid off? I'm not sure, but I sure do feel satisfied. (Regardless of the outcome).It feels like a heavy load of worries off my shoulders. And-it feels great!! Really good. :DThen come, savouring time. Now is it.Time when I ponder,reflect, meekly smiling at my "self imposed"

Dear Blig,I've been mindless chicken recently. I hope to repent. I'm sorry. Really really sorry. With mindlessness,comes all sorts of nonsense playing through my head. Mostly nasty ones, not really nice ones. I still want to be 'nice' :) Regardless of the consequences.It's a principle of my life which - I want to keep. And I hope I succeed.Other things:Yesterday, I was surprised to learn that my

Blig,Sudden thought -to ramble on n on. Suddenly worried over me losing my 'identity'.Then,thought again, what identity? Well,I'm not exactly sure. Anyway, one thing for sure is, I do love music. Was so excited just now, came home, watch 'So you think you can dance'..MAN...they are AMAZING!! The way those ladies move, and the men dance.....leave me in awe.

In short- I'm, sort of, much better. My voice? Well, now, I have

How does it feel like to be sick in bed for 5.5 days? Let me tell u...1)(THURS)At first,exciting. Coz u've got a chance to sulk, grab attention, sleep, do nothing.2)(THURS)Also,at first, unsure. Am I really sick? Can I not go to work? I've got so many things to do pending!!3)(FRI)Thinking it's all a joke.Planned when to get better-the following day,of course!4)(SAT)Then it all looked good, 1.5

Ah dearie Blig, I'm in such a better mood today. After having 1.5 days of rest-called in a sickie....I'm finally better on a friday evening, Merdeka day. Did lots of catchup- in terms of rest, friends chat,cleaning, unpaid bills, ....in short, errands! My throat is still a little sore, but manageable. Honey n Lemon really does the trick in soothing the throat....not cure it,but soothe it, in

Blig-I just thought of something recently. It's such a beautiful day outside today but yikes,I have to confine myself in this room and get on with my work. It's a quarantine day for me, and I aim to at least catch up with my -very lagged- studies. I give myself 3 hrs to complete M1. After that- give myself a treat- a run around the field-2rounds!!Just a quick one: I'd like to reminisce about two

I can take itKo can take itBut Ma & Pa?Struggling with the idea.....The hardest part for parents must be the 'letting go' part. Maybe it's just my parents. Some parents had already ran out of energy even before that phase. Due to the demands of raising kids. Quote Pa: 'I feel as though I haven't done enough'..What can I say? It's MORE MORE than enough...

Chapter two comes with loads of excitement:I give myself six months to warm my fingers.After that,it's more exploring and more reading and more learning. Practice today shows how terrible I have become. Sigh.
