Landslides - Too little, Too Late.

The country was recently shaken, literally, by news of landslips and landslides, one after another. I guess it's Nature's way of telling us that we have, indeed, gone too far.

And of course, in true Malaysian fashion, experts and politicians started spewing out comments, which I find not only irritating, but coming too late. Yes, the site of the Bukit Antarabangsa landslide is not too far from the Highland Towers site, 1.5 km approximately, and residents have commented to the MPAJ but did anyone listen, take heed, or take stock of what happened in 1993? I don't think so. I think it's rather too late now to tell us that the soil at Bukit Antarabangsa is not stable and not suitable for construction. I'm sure we are very much aware of all that.

It's definitely the wrong time to be pointing fingers or passing the buck. Yes, the landslide happened. What is best now is to make sure it does not happen again. Perhaps the powers that be can think before they act or issue statements on how best to prevent the situation from recurring.

So, who's to blame? The developers, for wanting to cash in on the 'exclusiveness' of the area? The residents, for wanting to live 'an exclusive address'? Or the local council, for giving a nod for the project to go on anyhow, despite the fact that there are serious risks involved?

Of course it is easier to point the fingers at A,B, or C. What is difficult is to take ownership or responsibility of what happened.

Let's just hope that such tragedy never recurs. My prayers to those who lost their family members and friends. Al-Fatihah.

My Most Hilarious Moment.

Everyone has their own hilarious moment that they will remember forever, so do I. However, mine is different compared to other people because it is not just only a hilarious moment to me, but also a sweet one.

I know this one girl, who is really special to me, a few years ago. We were a good friends and somewhere along the way, I can't help myself but falling in love with her. I kept it to myself as I didn't want anything bad effects our friendship. I tried a few times before to tell her about my feelings, but my tongue get tied every time I am with her.

However, one day, she gave me a positive signal. It all started when one day, we went out together. We were crossing the road and I hold her hand because I feel that I have to look after her as I was the one who asked her out. To my surprise, she held back my hand and even tighter. I was too happy that I didn't realized there was this one banana skin on the road and I accidentally stepped on it and I fell. People were looking at me, most of them were trying so hard to not laugh. But I laughed at myself to cover everything and they all joined me laughing. Started from that day, I always be more carefully.

Since that unforgettable incident, we spent most of the time together. For me, she is like an angel that God has sent to me. She always there for me no matter what. She helped me with everything. She makes me feel comfortable. She also taught me to believe in myself since she said, she has faith in me. That really touches my heart.

But everything's change when one day, she disappeared, just like that. No news about her. I feel so sad and depressed. But whatever it is, she will remains as sweetest memory and she has make me experience the most hilarious moment of my life.
