Bathroom Water Tank

In most newly built houses, the trend now is either you have shower or long bathtub in your bathroom. The other day when the water was sipping from my water tank, I was very much affected. Many thoughts such as either to demolish it and to refixed with another new different type of water tank or to repair by waterproofing came playing in my mind for so long.

Personally I don't really like shower. The water is too "straight" meaning how can one really cleanse those parts of your body without using a pail. Can you, I can't.

So I finally decided to preserve my water tank by waterproofing it. My interest in water tank also makes me snap a few water tank from various coffee shops. The first picture is my "refurbish" water tank in my cottage.

The "Closeness" and Intensity" of a relationship

Someone asked me how I would define a relationship as very close and intense. This remind me so much of my colleagues who phone their spouse so frequently. Within such a short period of time from stepping out from the house, still talk again and each day called so many times. So I guess a relationship as close & intense when one has so much to talk and exchange about. Or it could be if the "couple" as being seen going out together very often, play together, work together, eat together and sleep together. Some old people nicknamed this similar to "siamese twin".

Certainly I have missed two more crucial yardstick until someone pointed that to me. They are;

1. disclosing and exchange of all bank and cash balances. This is would be much more sensitive than being physically nude, haha.

2. or maybe without missing to inform the other parties as such mundane activities such as shifting of furniture, buying of tissue-paper.

My friend sounds correct, doesn't he?. What do you think?

How not to be angry with anything, anyone, etc

After a few years of attending my spiritual class, I was taught how not to be angry. The roots cause of anger may be several factors, eg

1. When the persons you are dealing with do not fulfil your expectation.
2. When one's pride or ego is hurt by insult, rivalry or whatever.
3. When things do not turn out the way one prefer it to be happen.
4. Jealousy, greed, hatred and grudges.
5. The pride or ego of looking down of others. Majority never dare to be angry with those you feel more superior to you or to our loved ones.

Therefore as the reasons for angry has been revealed, there shouldn't be much problem to conquer anger. What so difficult to conquer anger er? Just accept the fact that all human population are not only not perfect yet with many many flaws. Everybody including me is full with all vicious thoughts. Whatever happen is nothing new, it is all Law of karma at works. 98% is predestined, 1% is effort, and another 1% is luck. Please inform me if I am wrong.

Wall Clock - Feng shui

Today a friend suggested that I remove my wall clock because it is directly facing the main door. When she went home, i quickly do my research online feng shui about clocks

http://fengshui.about.com/od/faq/f/fengshuiclock.htm

Based on this website it is also suggeted that one should not hang their wall clock so that you can see them first thing as you enter the house.

Possibly this contribute to why I do not have the luck I wish I have. Hopefully with effect from today, after I remove the wall clock, I shall be a lucky person. Luck is what I needed most. With luck everything should be smooth sailing for me. This include money, relationship and health of course.

P.s. Time will tell if this feng shui works.

Memory Lost

Lately I meet 2 persons who claimed that they are my ex-colleagues. The can name the company that I had worked in correctly, however I cannot recognise them. All they have described in their conversation are 100% correct.

Even after several weeks, i still cannot recognise them. Could it be that they have changed so much physically?. Or they have no impact on my life completely that I can't even remember them anything, i am not sure.

Or is it my memory cells are dying much. Or I have learnt to have disinterest in this world to such extent. Any how I can still recollect and recognise all my old friends from my school days.

Online diary - 16/2/10

I start working today because this company only observe 1 day holiday for CNY. I brought along with me cookies and cakes to share with my colleagues. The office was so peaceful as there was no telephone calls. Majority of other companies are still closed.

Time passes so fast and those that are around take this opportunity to slow down a bit. When one has nothing much to do and without stress times really flies. It was just like a few minutes , eight hours passes by. So light and easy. How I wish everyday is like that.

In spite of the hot weather, we are all pleased. Pleased that there are no interruption from external parties i.e. customers and suppliers and what not complaints.

The roads are equally pleasing. So nice to drive along quiet road. Seems like many years back when motors were not that crowded as it is today.

I also receive an angpow from my management. Although it is a very small token of RM2.00, never mind because I feel that I can still buy 1 plate of "Chee Cheong Fun", or I can still use it to pay for car parks charges. Naturally how I wished that it were bigger.

With regards to this RM2.00 angpow, of course majority of us laugh and condemn about it. What and how to do? Normally it is the case, good workers seldom meet good boss or vice versa. Too bad.

All went smoothly and everybody went back home at 5.00 pm sharp.
