Life is all above what you want,
How you plan to get it.
Be yourself.
Don't just react to other's command all the time.
Learn to be leader.
You will know you are far better than what you think you are today.

SLOW DANCE
Have you ever watched kids
On a merry-go-round?
Or listened to the rain
Slapping on the ground?
Ever followed a butterfly's erratic flight?
Or gazed at the sun into the fading night?

You better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.

Do you run through each day?
On the fly?
When you ask How are you?
Do you hear the reply?
When the day is done!
Do you lie in your bed
With the next hundred chores
Running through your head?

You'd better slow down
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.

Ever told your child,
We'll do it tomorrow?
And in your haste,
Not see his sorrow?
Ever lost touch,
Let a good friendship die
Cause you never had time
To call and say,"Hi"

You'd better slow down.
Don't dance so fast.
Time is short.
The music won't last.

When you run so fast to get somewhere
You miss half the fun of getting there.
When you worry and hurry through your day,
It is like an unopened gift....
Thrown away.

Life is not a race.
Do take it slower
Hear the music
Before the song is over.



The End of True LOVE

I know I know I’ve let you down,
I've been a fool to myself.
I thought I could live for no one else.
But not through all the hurt and pain.
Its time for me to respect the ones,
Your love means more than anything does.

So with sadness in my heart,
I feel the best thing I could do
is ending it all and leave forever.
What’s done is done, it feels so bad.
What once was happy now is sad.

I’ll never love again, my world is ending
I wish that I could turn back time
Cos now the guilt is all mine
Cant live without the trust
from the ones you love.

I know we can't forget the past,
You can’t forget love and pride,
Because of that it’s killing me inside,
It all returns to nothing, it all comes,
tumbling down,
tumbling down,
and tumbling down.

It all returns to nothing,
it just keep
letting me down,
letting me down,
and letting me down.

In my heart of love,
I know that I could never love again.
I’ve lost everything, everything,
That matters to me,
matter in this world.

I wish that I could turn back time.
Cos now all the guilt is mine,
can’t live without
the trust from those you love.
I know we can't forget the past
You can't forget love and pride
Because of that, its killing me inside
It all returns to nothing, it all comes
tumbling down,
tumbling down,
tumbling down.

It all returns to nothing,
it just keep
Letting me down,
letting me down,
letting me down
It all returns to nothing,
it all comes tumbling down,
tumbling down, tumbling down

It all returns to nothing,
i just keep letting me down,
letting me down,
and letting me down.





Auld Lang Syne
Author:Robert Burns

Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
And auld lang syne?

CHORUS:
For auld lang syne, my dear,
For auld lang syne,
We'll take a cup of kindness yet,
For auld lang syne!
And surely ye'll be your pint-stowp,
And surely I'll be mine,
And we'll take a cup o kindness yet,
For auld lang syne!

We twa hae run about the braes,
And pou'd the gowans fine,
But we've wander'd monie a weary fit,
Sin auld lang syne.

We twa hae paidl'd in the burn
Frae morning sun till dine,
But seas between us braid hae roar'd
Sin auld lang syne.

And there's a hand my trusty fiere,
And gie's a hand o thine,
And we'll take a right guid-willie waught,
For auld lang syne.

Finally!!! Fear is No Longer a Factor

Finally! Fear is No Longer a Factor. Yesterday I was contemplating whether I should put in my Xphone II for a total reformat. Was worried if I put in the phone and it got delay for a few days. But surprisingly, the repair only took 2 hours and my Xphone II is collected and there I go... back in action with my little gadget.

Just about to test one sms and one mms, my phone rang. Hmm.. Strange number! Who is looking for me? Alo, Salut, sunt eu DANIEL here.

Ehhhh, can I speak to Kok Hoe, mmm Ng Kok Hoe.

Yeah Kok Hoe here.

Daniel Ng?

Yeap.

Ok. I’m Wanz calling from Fear Factor Malaysia. Will you be free from Dec 4, 2005 to Dec 9, 2005? We are looking at screening episode 11 onwards.

Good news. I should be ok with those dates but let me do a quick checking. I’ll get back to you in 1 hour.

= an hour later =

Hello, may I speak to Wanz please? Speaking, who is this? Is Daniel Ng. The guy you called just now for the Fear Factor. Just would like to confirm that I’m fine with the date given just now. Anything to bring?

You will actually check in to Sunway Hotel on Dec 4, 2005 and the rest will be take care by us. We will up-date you later on the things to bring with you. See yah..

Ok. Thanks again. See you soon.

The above was just a simplified caption on the potentially materialise Fear Factor Malaysia Session 2. Hope I’ll make it till the end. It is not about the prize but about the challenges itself. This going to be really really fun.

Best of luck to myself.. Cheers

Fear Factor and Astronaut Selection... the journey continue

Tuesday, Nov 8, 2005 was the date for the Fear Factor Pre Screening. I have done my part. Nope. No interview. It was about facing the camera and talk and acts. Scream as if you were fear and scream as if you were challenging your opponent. That was what asked by the camera crew members in the present of their supervisor.

 

The whole process started from 7.00pm and it took nothing more than 30 minutes. OK guys¡­ you have done. You two perform pretty well in front the camera. I guess you don¡¯t have problem with camera. How about swimming? You swim?

 

Oh yes mum, we surely do.

 

K¡­ we will be in touch in another 2 weeks if you appear to be on our top short-listed list. See you guys ok.

 

= end for the Fear Factor Pre-screening up-date=

 


Friday, Sept 30, 2005 was the last day we did our blood donation to the Astronaut Selection Medical Team. They have taken our blood for further lap analysis for the second time within 4 days.

 

What¡¯s next? The 59 candidates will have to wait until end or 3rd week of Nov, 2005 to know if any of us is selected for further screening. Guess, from 59 candidates, only 30-40 will be selected this time. Nothing much we can do about this but waiting anxiously for the call. Ok not to put too much expectation on this. I believe if you expect too much and if the expectation never materialized, you will tend to be more vulnerable and disappointed. Just the same as in love relationship.

= end for the Astronaut Pre-screening up-date= 


Cheers for the day.

Health Advice

HEALTH QUESTION & ANSWER SESSION

Q: I've heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life; is this true? A: Your heart is only good for so many beats, and that's it... don't waste them on exercise. Everything wears out eventually. Speeding up your heart will not make you live longer; that's like saying you can extend the life of your car by driving it faster. Want to live longer? Take a nap.

Q: Should I cut down on meat and eat more fruits and vegetables? A: You must grasp logistical efficiencies. What does a cow eat? Hay and corn. And what are these? Vegetables. So a steak is nothing more than an efficient mechanism of delivering vegetables to your system. Need grain? Eat chicken. Beef is also a good source of field grass (green leafy vegetable). And a pork chop can give you 100% of your recommended daily allowance of vegetable products.

Q: Should I reduce my alcohol intake? A: No, not at all. Wine is made from fruit. Brandy is distilled wine, that means they take the water out of the fruity bit so you get even more of the goodness that way. Beer is also made out of grain. Bottoms up!

Q: How can I calculate my body/fat ratio? A: Well, if you have a body and you have fat, your ratio is one to one. If you have two bodies, your ratio is two to one, simple!

Q: What are some of the advantages of participating in a regular exercise program? A: Can't think of a single one, sorry. My philosophy is: No Pain...Good!

Q: Aren't fried foods bad for you? A: YOU'RE NOT LISTENING!!!. Foods are fried these days in vegetable oil. In fact, they're permeated in it. How could getting more vegetables be bad for you?

Q: Will sit-ups help prevent me from getting a little soft around the middle? A: Definitely not! When you exercise a muscle, it gets bigger. You should only be doing sit-ups if you want a bigger stomach.

Q: Is chocolate bad for me? A: Are you crazy? HELLO ...... Cocoa beans! Another vegetable!!! It's the best feel-good food around!

Q: Is swimming good for your figure? A: If swimming is good for your figure, explain whales to me.

Q: Is getting in-shape important for my lifestyle? A: Hey! 'Round' is a shape!

Well, I hope this has cleared up any misconceptions you may have had about food and diets. And remember: "Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Chardonnay in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO HOO, What a ride!

The Next Unkown is Near

Hmmmmm,

Still wondering why the Astronaut Selection took so long to complete the shortlisting and selection for the next batch. Latest resume given to them. The Malay "Raya" celebration will be this Thursday (Nov 3, 2005). Soon... soon... the annoucement will be made. Hopefully i'll still be in the group.

Ok, before that one arrive, I have an appointment for Malaysia Fear Factor pre-screening this coming Nov 8, 2005. Not very sure what the pre-selection gonna be but i bet it surely will be very fun.



Wish me luck and see you soon if i'm in. Will go all out and enjoy the fun.....

Cheers

The Next Move

The very first email I received from the Malaysia ANGKAWASAN Department (http://www.angkasawan.gov.my/) was on 24 August 2005. They have requested me to confirm my participation in the second shortlisting they have. That is to run 3.5KM in 20 minutes. I made it in 15.24minutes. After the run, we were given 2 hours to rush to Hospital Serdang for full medical check-up. Honestly, it is pretty throughout. From head to toe, the doctors missed nothing out. The good thing is lunch in provided. We were brief in great details the ISS (International Space Station) and the consequences of our willingness to participate in this program. The amount of risks we carry with us and the gratitude of carrying the Country's Flag internationally. Well, I pass this first round medical test too and was called for the next challenges, which was from Sept 26 to Sept 30. This particular round brought me to psychology and psychiatric profiling. Also did our dental moulding and plenty to blood test + x-rays. The eye test was very throughout. Guess they must be thinking that I have bionic eye vision by now. We have now left with 59 candidates. Should know who are selected for the next round after mid Nov 2005. As usual, I’ve been busy keeping myself fit and mentally strong for the next stage. Hope I will be selected to the next level. That is the least I can hope for so far. Over the period from 24th August 2005 to 24 October 2005, personally I have received total of (noting less) 7-8 emails + 5 phone calls. The latest was request for details resume on 17 October 2005.
