On this lazy prolonged holiday’s morning (thanks to car’s alternator and rainy morning which drenched me during biking to work, ended up on EL), I received a FB message from someone I respect a lot. A teacher who taught me during primary school sent me this.

Partial of the message

一般人都渴求美梦，害怕噩梦。通常我们印象最深的梦，是早上醒来前那个最长的梦境。我个人的经验，深刻的美梦或噩梦会给我带来启示或预兆。。。梦有宣泄与安抚、鼓励的功能，我们得学习做梦中的主人。。。
平常清醒时，当我们遇到不愿面对的事情，为了让心灵不受伤害，我们会利用防卫机构把不安的情绪压抑下来。我们之所以做噩梦，就是要宣泄不安的压抑，再次面对自己的心理冲突。。。梦是绝对坦白的，不像清醒时我们反而戴著面具生活；梦坦白地把内心最私密的愿望或个性表达无遗。

Translation

Most of us desire sweet dreams but terrify nightmares. Normally we will remember the longest dream before we wake up. I learned, either profound sweet dreams or nightmares would bring inspiration or omen through my personal experiences. Dreams can be catharsis, comforting and encouraging, hence, we need to learn to be master of our dreams.

When we are awake, we tend to suppress our emotion by building up a defensive wall protecting ourselves from been hurt when we encountered things that we reluctant or dare not confront. This might be the reason why we are having nightmares. Dream, is to give vent to repress our anxiety which we restrain from while we were awake. We can easily cover up with mask through high EQ we pickup but not in our dream, which is totally honest expressing the deepest thought in us.

The rose looks gorgeous but feel sad sleeping on icy snow

I have no idea why she sent me this but it did trigger me to think. It made me recall the recent dreams and nightmares I had. However, most of them faded as time flies. Few weeks ago, I woke up twice from nightmares in less than 4 hours sleep after a conversation. The nightmares somehow relate to the conversation and we laughed through it the next day because it sounded silly and funny. Now, the message above evoked the search in me, deep inside. Were it I care too much and the uncertainty I have caused fear without my own realization which I concealed unconsciously?

Dream, lead you to mist or....

The purpose and content of dreams are not fully understood scientifically, thus, many will seek dream interpretation from all sort of manner trying to predict their subsequent life events from it. Since studies show that everybody dreams and we will forget 90% of our dreams, I agree that dreams however, not symbolic but just the real depiction of one’s deepest fears and desires suppressed in real life. That’s the reason explain why the most common emotion experienced in dreams are mainly negative such as anxiety, fear, depress, grief, hatred, regret, anger and much more. No doubt there are dreams that express positive aura such as joy, interest, enthusiasm and of course dreams involved sexual content that result in orgasm or nocturnal emission generally knows as wet dreams which is kind of troublesome because you need to wake up for a change and cleaning with half opened eyes middle of the night. Hence, comparatively, we will come across nightmares and remember it more than our desire, sweet dreams.

3 days more, we Malaysian shall celebrate 52 years of Merdeka (Independence). I’m always glad to be a Malaysian when it comes to our ability in dealing with languages. On top of being able to read, write and speak on 3 major languages, Malay, Engrish English, and Chinese, dialects such as Cantonese, Hokkien, Hainanese and TeowChew never an issue to me either. I learned Japanese, but didn’t continue further after 2 years and most of the things I learned, packed and returned to the lovely tutor already. However, you can still easily find Malaysian who are able to do more than what I can out there.

Is there anyone who doubts the advantageous by knowing more languages? I doubt so. It’s always good to fully understand all the conversation surrounding you might it be related to you or not. What is more important is you are able to do cross reference check before believing what you read like those few examples I received from a forwarded email and obviously taken from engrish.com.below.

Bored after all those nonsense above? how about a can of coffee to wake you up or perhaps depress you.

Although I claimed I eat almost everything, yet I'll still be avoiding something to do with ass (I know chicken butt is nice, I still not fancy about it). Now, if I can't read Chinese, most likely I will not order this delicious donkey's meat cook in HuNan Xiang's cuisine.

Translate from Chinese

Xiang style dry fried donkey meat

Who need some dick stick to munch around?

Can someone explain to me is this an invitation/banner for sex party (erection is a must) or a club or a bizzare political party's name?

What kind of fishes swim in this lake? and this is definitely not the way to get some extraordinary sensation for your private part. NO.

This make me think for a while. what kind of animal will you molest? ain't this a bit sick?

Big different between the Chinese sign and the translated English

Chinese: take good care of the children, beware not to fall into the water

English up there: take the child fall into water carefully. WTF?

Last but not least, if I apply this facial wash daily, you will not call me Mr. Horny? (detail refer here) as it claims horniness removal.

Merdeka! Merdeka! Merdeka!

ok this is random i know. Happy long weekend everyone.

I don’t usually watch horror movie especially haunted. The reason being, I’m scare there are too many negative elements in it which doesn’t make any good to us. Heart pumping faster in this situation increases blood circulation is not consider healthy as you are on trek mill ok. However, the trailer on Orphan was so persuasive by emerged my curiosity in knowing “why”. Again I was lucky to get invited by Nuffnang for premiere screening of Orphan exactly a week back.

It was nice. Ok, “nice” sound weird on thriller like this. It was filmed brilliantly. Along the movie, there were many disturbing phenomenon which we don’t want to see and know in reality. It was not scary as you found on a ghost related play but sickening and disgusting. The script was clever; it makes you keep wondering why? Why? and why? with a really understatement tagline “There’s something wrong with Esther”.

I’m not going spoilt your watching sensation here by disclose the plot. You go and watch it yourself to understand what I said here. I would say Orphan was intense with cruelty and surprises. It looked like an old tale from any other similar type of movie but it was certainly original about the secret holds by Esther (Isabelle Fuhrman). Ohh ya... the painting were amazing.

Myhorng Rating - 7.5/10

2 weekend back, Suanie invited me for a waterfalls trekking organized by Yoonkit. Initially, I was kind of reluctant not knowing 80% of the names in the list. However, I was talking to myself, rather than staying at home mushrooming, why not I stay healthy with outdoor activity at the same times knowing more friends? So I accepted the invite and Suanie told me her boss will be there also and I’ll like him because he’s a funny guy and yes she was so right. Sorry lar Gier, you are funny.

I’m lazy at current moment, therefore you may refer to comprehensive coverage by suanie here. What I’m going to do here is to share some of the pictures we took along this awesome trek just behind Zoo Negara. So expect lots of pictures. Remember to try the nasi lemak 3^rd stall after you enter the side path beside the main entrance of Zoo Negara. It was worth trying before the hardcore trekking.

Kampung Nasi Lemak FTW

Journey started with the 1st mini pit stop

Waterfall #1

Soon enough we reached the 1st waterfall. Not super astonishing but good enough for a "wah" after hike. Stopped by for 10mins or so before we continue venture deeper for 2nd waterfall.

Those were the path we went through. Most of the time we just follow the river, occasionally using the river bank. Suanie obviously not very happy with the route created by parang (knife) bought by Yoonkit.

Along the way, trying to play with my camera abit

It was fun hopping from rocks to rocks and simply walked along the water flow.

When you were in front or last in the troop, what you do? you take pictures.

Waterfall #2

The 2nd water was able to amaze us more. it was beautiful. we had some rest in between of the waterfall where Anita on blue was standing.

Waterfall #3 with everyone there,except me taking this photo.

From waterfall #2 to this one really need some hard work man. suanie claimed that's the most adventurous path she ever did. Finally we were at the final destination and lunch was taken here. This waterfall pours from the highest peak among 3 and it was at least 5 - 6 storeys height.

had a nice rest there and kind enough to give way to Han

Practicing some yoga shit and water was too strong to stand still.

We had fun and got wet from this waterfall #3 and so did the leeches. There was a hole behind the pouring where you can actually sit in it. and i believe there's where i got bitten by 3 leeches.

dammit blood sucker.

Spot the differences
TOP - Before | Bottom - After

It was not particularly hard for me but it was certainly exciting and memorable. This 7 hours trek was exhausting but you will definitely felt great after it. Nice knowing Gier, Anita, Ditesh, Han, LiSin, Kelly and May. Thanks YoonKit for a being a great guide.
