Saddened

If you are sensitive enough with what's happening in Selangor, you must have known that Elizabeth, one of the State Assemblywomen has submitted her resignation. It was due to the circulation of her photos. Of course it has been a big impact to her. I personally think that she is not suppose to resign from her post, as she is not wrong in any legal sense (at least based on my 2 years of studies in law). Among the things that we can learn from such incident is that publication has indeed having impacts - positive and negative. The party which has circulated and publicize such thing has indeed has the intention of demoting her status. What a shame.

Few weeks ago, due to Perak crisis, DAP National Leader, Mr Karpal Singh has asked the Opposition Leader to step down and this has also been made publicly. Isn't this has caused insecurity in people who supported the Pakatan Rakyat coalition? Will they continue to have full confidence on the said coalition? For the sake of the people and the coalition, wouldn't it be better if such thing to be discussed among themselves i.e. holding a meeting to talk about that, or at least has a face-to-face conversation. Such harsh statement, once made, will not be able to be taken back. But at least it has shown the impact and served as a good lesson to them. I agreed that as the National Leader, he has his right as well as his own view on how he would like to convey his message. I also agreed with his intention - for the good of the people. However, using publicly statement to attack his own coalition will achieve more bads than goods which I personally think so. After all who will gain the benefit of such inner war, if any? Once again, I am not saying that he has done something wrong, but there are a lot of ways to work something out. In the midst of crisis, it is very important to do the right things. Both matured men (leaders), sit down and talk nicely. Helping and worsening are just a slim-line-separated.

Love your juniors

Ever sit down and think of how you have been given chances and chances when you have done wrong in your early age? Pieces of advice, had then been trying to deliver to us. Why so? Why don't our seniors just slammed us with all those blames? The answer is so simple - they loved us. Do we ever realise that then? I remembered back in my year when I had a few seniors who really helped us so sincerely throughout our tenure. And of course there was a senior too who didn't really show a good example as a senior. At the end, she was boycotted by us. This is not my concern here.

Personally, I have been looking at my juniors - batch after batch growing up. Besides observing, another thing that I will most of the time been doing is advising. I don't really know if my advices have been adapted or not, or maybe it is useful and practical. Be it or not, I knew I have this responsibility to do so. Yes, everyone has been telling me, batch by batch, thanks for your advice, thanks for sharing, so on and so forth. I don't really know whether this is just a formality to simply say a thank you and then bye bye. Or is either they just let me talk what I wanted to say, and that's it. I don't really care about that. I just know what I have done is deeply came from my sincere heart. I do everything with the intention to see them growing. I wasn't paid a single cent by any parties for advising. I didn't receive any award for doing so. If I did, I am willing to do more than that.

It is so important for us as seniors to guide our juniors. Merely sharing our experiences is more than sufficient. At least we let them understand that we have been facing the same difficulties. This at least has shown that we are being supportive to them. One might think of the importance of such supports, but trust me, it really helps a lot. This encouragement has been the mechanism to motivate them with more confidence to work towards goals.

On the other hand, if we are just being a bit critical and only criticize on them, will they really be able to grow up? In certain cases, yes it may. Will it work if we are just talking at their back? What will be then their feelings if they know that we have been talking about their "lackness" at their back? Let's think wisely. What is then our true and main concern? We as the seniors deeply concern of their growth. Then why don't we discharge our duty in more practical way? Today's juniors will reflect how much efforts we have been putting in to develop them. How much shame has been caused will not be their fault, but ours. Isn't it naive if we are "attacking" our own juniors, instead of nurturing them? Remember, love them.

7 days

Yes, a blink and week has passed. I am once again back to this life. More and more interesting things ahead and at the same time more and more unexpected challenges awaiting for me to go through. No worries, I know I can make it, simply because I am Henry! Go go go!!!

The End, The Start

Yes, this has marked then end of the Chinese New Year Celebration! Anyway, it has, as well, marked the starting of the new year. It will be busy days onwards, as more and more stuff pouring on me. Not really sure if I have the initiative to start working on them. Moots is definitely my major worried now. Time is closed by, yet I have started no preparation at all. Administrative Law Assignment is in my to-do-list now, and as an appointed group leader, is going to be another annoying task to assign the parts to all the members. Some more, I have to be in the same group with people that I hate to work with, and people that I have once fallen in love with. A mixture of feelings, I guess it will be quite challenging as well. Just hope this heavy semester will be another enjoyable semester.
...
Have not been getting well people lately. Is either I am too sensitive again, or it is the fact that those people are being hostile (as described by my coursemate). Sometimes it really feel good to be alone, totally out of contact with anyone. A stranger's smile might live up my life sometimes. Cold welcome back to KL has been expected. It hurts but is something that I am totally used to it. No news from hometown lately, have been wondering how old friends have been doing. Busy with their SPM preparation? Busy with their upcoming school concert? Or maybe busying with Valentine's Day preparation? Talking about Valentine's Day, I know I will be once again, celebrating my 21st anniversary of being single in Valentine's Day. Sounds quite sad right, but I know that I am not the only one, so not a big deal. I can still laugh at the others, as how they laughed at my loneliness.
...
Viewed through a friend's blog. Guess that the post is addressed to me. If yes, then this is your reply. I was just joking. Not to take it too serious. I know and I can feel the sincerity, and that's more than enough. No apology is needed, but in return a thank should be conveyed to you for being a sincere friend of mine. Thanks for all this while.

A simple gathering

Hmmm... Have been quite disappointed after failed to get anyone to join me for the gathering tonight at Eleanor's house. Boys have been growing up now, and of course my activity has been too bored for them to join now. And maybe all this while they joined because they were too bored and got nothing else better than that to do, or maybe they were just giving face to me. I think is time to change a bit in my life style and get ready to set off from certain categories of people. Bird, if hold too tight will die, but if hold too loose, will definitely fly away. After all I am not blaming anyone and in fact I am happy that everyone has their own plans to do. Not like me, will soon be killed by the loneliness and boredom! Never mind, just pray that time can bring me back to KL soon and there my life will start again. Can't wait to go back to KL again, at least I do not feel as bored as I am here now.
...
The thing that I am looking towards the most will be the visitation to Kajang Prison AGAIN. I really miss my friends inside the prison. Have been wondering how they celebrated the Chinese New Year with those cookies bought by Iggy and me. Hope those cookies can at least bring some smile to them.
...
New Year has been a great day to enjoy food all around, but one thing I miss the most is the cookies that are promised by someone since X'mas. I guess it is another blank cheque - blank promise. Cookies cookies cookies cookies cookies cookies cookies cookies cookies cookies cookies...
