Let's look at what the Bible says regarding laziness. In Proverbs 21:25, in a simpler explanation, it means that a lazy person hates to work. As a door turns on its hinges, so a sluggard turns on his bed.
[Proverbs 26:14]
Aaahhh... I think everyone relates to this perfectly. Sleeping for hours and hours. Sleep away the whole morning. Wake up for a few hours, login to Facebook for a couple more hours. Take a long nap in the afternoon. Wake up for dinner. Online again for a few more hours. Then sleep again until the next day. 
I caught this picture well. Whenever the exam is here, I would operate in a super nagging way. Study~! StuDY~! STUDY LA~!! Then, I feel like bashing them with their books. They're not even studying. I don't know what's wrong with teenagers nowadays. In less than 30 minutes, she fall asleep with the notes in her hand, covering the face. Do you really think the brain will absorb all the information? If I were to ask them to study, sitting on a chair with the book on the table, it wouldn't be fair because all my life, I study in my bed as well. But the thing is I don't fall asleep while studying. I cannot understand why are they so afraid to study, to memorize and to work harder. This is pure laziness. A sloth.... A sluggard says, “There’s a lion in the road, a fierce lion roaming the streets!” [Proverbs 26:13]
That verse is not talking about a real roaring lion on the streets. It's about people giving excuses all the time to escape from doing something. Let's go through with a few of the excuses actively used:
- I'm tired... wanna rest for awhile. Yes, you may rest for awhile, but nap took up the whole afternoon and you wasted the whole afternoon doing nothing. I cannot stand a person who sits down without doing anything for the rest of the afternoon.
- I cannot understand what's written in the book. If that's the case, ask for wisdom. Ask the Holy Spirit to be your teacher, to guide you, to bring understanding to you. But no, you would rather close the book and never touch it again.
- I hate that subject. Hating a subject is definitely not an excuse to fail that particular subject.
- I don't have enough time to study. Hohoho~! But you definitely have enough time to do all sorts of nonsense. Complaining about not having enough time is a rather lame excuse.
- I can't write an essay. Of course you can't write because you have never wanted to practise writing. You don't even want to read to improve yourself.
Being different. All of you want to be different, in that case why live a life that's so like every other people. You have no reason to fail the Malay Language paper. There are so many Malay books, story books for you to read. Just pick up a book and start reading. English books are everywhere. If you can't speak English perfectly, then start speaking. You can start off with a conversation with me. History is just information on what happen centuries and decades before you even existed. Treat it like an interesting events that happened long ago. Since you think it's boring then it will be boring. Additional Maths, I gave you lots of paper to do but you refuse to do anything about it.
I'm writing this for the last time. Yes, I'm upset with how all of you behave. None of you listen to me. None of you follow anything that I've taught you. The best excuse that any of you can give is, "I forget." *pfft* There's seriously no reason why you're not doing well and looking at the 'G' in the result list... that's unacceptable. 
In conclusion, if you want more books to study, tell me. I will supply you with so many books you can't even see yourself. I think I don't have to care so much regarding this, it's your life and your future, not mine. If you really choose to be different, then do something about yourself. Fight against your laziness. As I've always said, "No effort put in, no gain." If you see everything as a burden, checking the dictionary is a burden, flipping through the pages is a burden, everything seems to be a burden, you will never succeed in life. Your laziness will kill you one day.
One who is slack in his work is brother to one who destroys. [Proverbs 18:9]
A direct translation for that verse: A lazy person wastes time and energy.
Someone actually said that my sun rises from the west. That is because I've never seen a sunrise before, waking up when the sun is already moving way ahead. Last Tuesday, I made it a point to wake up at 6 a.m. and went to Gurney Drive with my pyjamas on. I caught the sunrise just a few minutes after settling down on the comfortable tiled sidewalk. 
Patience... I have none. I tried my best to keep myself entertained. I'm not the type who sits quietly in one corner. Once I'm awake, I'll be doing something. But there... there... I had to sit quietly, stopping myself from jumping into the quiet and calm sea. 
No joke~! Sitting down quietly requires a large amount of discipline. After 30 minutes, I can see myself climbing up and down and over the edge. I was all over the place. The two big clouds didn't give me a clear shot of the sun. 
That's the most perfect shot I could get. Since I was already there, I snapped more photos to my heart's content. I played with the functions, the light exposure and all sorts of nonsense. I'm not a professional photographer neither do I carry a camera with the lens the length of a sniper gun. 
I think there's enough proof to show that I really did take the sunrise shots. I was starting to get really impatient and agitated, thus I walked along the shoreline. 
Suddenly, I saw a man in the sea. He was walking towards and into the sea. Was he gonna kill himself? 
Then, all of a sudden, he threw out his fishing net. That was really professional of him. I would have covered myself in the net and wouldn't know from which end to escape from. He's not a local here. He's a Bangladeshi with his another fellow friend, waiting faithfully by the seaside with a black plastic bag. Not even a proper pail to fill up the day's catch. 
He was really blessed with all the fish. Everytime he threw the net into the sea, he cast out so much that I would have kept the fish in the freezer and finished them up in a few days' time. 
I wonder when my friends and I will be going for a fishing trip that way... one walking into the sea, the others waiting with plastic bags.
We were in Thailand, sitting in the tuk tuk. It was a pleasant ride. As part of the country is under water now, we were relieved to find ourselves in dry land. We toot toot toot all the way back to Malaya. 
Meet these two gigantic workers. Other than ordering for the slave to carry the cement bullion, the supervisor had to carry my Betty Boop handbag. Well, he did enjoy himself. He got all the attention from us, a bevy of beautiful ladies. 
After stopping by the old Malaya, we decided to fly in to Barbados to have ice-creams. We were at Swensens and according to my coffee-drinking friends, the latte sux big time. Too diluted, taste horrible. Oh Swensen, can you do something about that? 
This time round we didn't travel on our own, I had my excess baggage tagging along with me. I brought my kids along. They're done with the end term exam so rightfully I shouldn't cage them and forced them to study for next year. I'm not such a ridiculous person. Oh, by the way, we were at Penang Times Square, 5 minutes away from my house. It's an action at the spur of the moment. Every Friday will be luncheon at my house. Thank God that I decided to clean the house after 10 years so at least now my friends got places to land their butts. 
After spending some time in Ireland, we went to India. We performed a number of Bollywood dances, appearing from behind the palm tree, disappeared into thin air, reappeared among the bushes then we gathered around and danced in circles, twirling about and moving at the tempo of the wind. By the way there wasn't any wind blowing at that time. So it's more like dancing with elephant legs, stomping around. But we are one lot of extremely talented people. We are able to come out with anything in a split second. 
We felt that we've spent much time in India, so we teleported ourselves to England. Since we have spent so much on transportation, travelling by air, we had no choice but to share a rather small but creamily cheesy red velvet cupcake. I wished we could have more but our stomach were so bloated with air, we just have enough space to have a few spoonful of cupcake. 
I seriously had a great time in England. I love this photo of mine out of so many photos. Firstly, I really love my long, wavy black hair. At times I would have bad hair day where it twirled and curled at ridiculous angle, but I'm still loving my black and brown hair. I love my face as well. Most importantly, I fall in love with my own legs. After working out for hours, I really love those legs of mine. I'm obsessed with my own legs. I'm gonna kiss my leg before I go to bed. My legs took me to a lot of places. 
All of a sudden, we felt that we have spent too much time in England. Judz and Rosalind needed their coffee break. We went to Brazil for the best coffee beans and also for the best chocolate drink. I don't know why but coffee is my greatest enemy. It's not that I dislike coffee but I feel that the coffee dislikes me. It's always so very bitter in my mouth. It's okay. I survive on chocolate. If you would have realized, Gracie was not with us. She walked away from us and decided to be with Beethoven and dissolved herself in the presence of Armadeus Wolfgang Mozart. In the end, we dropped her in Vienna where she found Johann Strauss. We travelled very fast because I need to work next. I'm always enjoying myself but I still have a job to go back to. Isn't that nice? We came back to Malaysia after hopping around the globe. Do you seriously believe in everything that I just wrote? I'm just kidding... chill~! You can't be doing serious writing all the while. I'm not a journalist. I'm a story teller.
I will have to admit that this is one brilliant idea to boost up one's business. By turning this place into a museum, it will attract locals and tourists of sorts. The moment I entered the place, I realized that everything was for sale. So, definitely this is a good idea to widen the prospective of sales and marketing. At least we found another place to visit when we have exhausted every single venue in this small little island. 
If iBox can show the steps of creating the masterpieces, it will attract more people. I remembered visiting a factory producing blow glass in Langkawi Island. That was one eye-opening experience. iBox has a wide range of glass. It would be really interesting to be able to see people at work. 
We have had a blast monkeying around. One minute we were standing in front of coloured and patterned glass panels. The next moment we were all behind the glasses with our head jutting out. We seriously hope that we didn't hear the sound 'PIANG'. That would be the sound of shattered glass. Thank God nothing of such happened when we were there. 
Each of us got ourselves a piece of decorative glass. I wrote my yellow piece of glass myself but in the end I asked Margaret, the lady in charge to decorate it for me. Gracie left us while we were busy with our art and craft work. Hmph~! Quickly take your piano exam and get it done with~!! Anyway, Museum of Glass is worth a visit. Go plan for the type of glass you want in your house. Redecorate your house. I will want a RM10 note in every small block of glass used to cover my wall.... just saying.
We went to Subway in 
I guess I don't know how to enjoy chewing on sandwich so huge that one bite sent everything flying out from the rear end of the sandwich. We were two messy cats eating our sandwiches but we had a great time together :D
Last Sunday, I've had a small basket shared among the important people in my lives around a round table. Then, the cravings started building up. By the way, that small basket cost RM4 and I thought it was really worth it because if I were to get them from the hypermarkets, the cockles were too small to enjoy. 
Yesterday, I went to the Anson Road Market to get some 
I recognized them as the 'helicopters' which I've tasted before in seafood restaurants. It was RM10 per kilo and the uncle was so nice, he gave me around 1.3kg without charging extra. My pineapple will be really excite to see all these but then sad to say, my pineapple couldn't make it as her cousin just passed away so she has to attend the funeral. I just need to blanch the cockle in hot water then it's ready to be eaten while for the helicopters, I need to leave them in boiling water for 2 - 3 minutes. 
Some will puke looking at this. Some will be able to imagine how nice they tasted, dipped with Thai
