A Liberating Activity - Guess What Mine Is....

When asked what’s my one single favorite thing to do in the world, I would usually name a whole list of things that I love to do when my work is not screaming at me. Something that takes my mind COMPLETELY off of everyday tasks and relaxes me. Take a guess what it is…. If you say ‘reading’, yes, I love reading (especially soppy love stories with lots of sex scenes, please. Hee hee hee….) and I also love mystery novels but it’s not the first on the list. If you say ‘playing the piano’; yes, I love playing the piano. Creating forms a huge part of my life and whenever I play the piano (as inept at it as I am), there’s this tiny little girl inside of me jumping up and down with glee, clapping her hands. It’s my childhood dream to be able to play the piano! And thumping on the keys gives me a sense of satisfaction when I hear the music. If you say ‘writing’; You’ve got to be kidding me! You mean I don’t write enough as it is? Case closed. If you say ‘playing with my kids’; Yeah, you’re darn right about that, I love playing with my kids. But I work from home, you see, so I listen to their jabbering and squabbles all-day-long, so, it doesn’t completely take me away from the real world. If you say ‘drinking’; Yeah, you’re just about right. I love to drink…not until pengsan (faint) but until I feel very very very very relaxed. Although I used to drink a lot (I’m not going into details) but I’ve cut down a lot and most of the time, during week days, I don’t drink anymore and it’s not the single most incredibly liberating activity to me now. If you say ‘watching series’; Oooohhh….you know me so well! Yeah, I love it because it takes me into another world where other people’s problems are actually BIGGER than mine. Wa ha ha ha ha!! But it does nothing to relax me. So… If you say ‘knitting’; Sure, I love knitting but one can only knit for so long, right? I mean, I AM A VERY RESTLESS PERSON and you can’t expect me sit there needle stroke after needle stroke and feel relaxed and liberated, right? But it does give me a sense of satisfaction because I ‘created’ something. If you say ‘cooking’; Mmmm…not too bad. But not close enough. If you say ‘singing’; You’re pretty darn close! Singing DOES take me into another world…whenever I am on stage, I just become someone else. It’s extremely, extremely liberating to be entertaining an appreciative crowd and hearing the sound of applause coming at me….and hearing applause comes second to a mind-blowing orgasm. So….guess….what is it that I love to do that liberates me, takes me into another world and most importantly, physically, emotionally and psychologically relaxes me? p.s. And it’s not sex, OK?

Well it's physical (NOT sex), in your following post you mention poetry but that is not physical (unless you like to bang your head off a wall thinking of the perfect metaphor to use..). Could it be dance/tai-chi/yoga (some form of physical expression)?

Malaysian Election 2008 - Malaysians ready for change

The political wrestle is over, here in Malaysia, and thankfully too because it earned me a hangove from watching the news, and reading all the readily available blogs on cyberspace all night long. With a spilting headache from squinting into the PC screen, watching the TV for news on the results from the ballot boxes, anxiety, uncertainty and HOPE lingers in the air..... BN, our ruling party in Malaysia, who has been flexing its political muscles for a long time now with the confident (and ever sleepy and gay) PM convincing Malaysians that BN is the only way to peace. Opposition cannot hold the fort properly, though, because the formation and coalition between them is too loose. But with BN denied the 2/3 majority it needed, all I can say is that Pak Lah tore a tendon while flexing his political muscles. Fed up, fed up, fed up - Malaysians are fed up A lot of Malaysians chose not to vote for the oppositition IN THE PAST because we wanted unity, we resisted change because of a date w...

Demanding a Balanced Lifestyle

We live in a world choked with demands….demand for more money, better lifestyle, more holidays, smarter kids, bigger house, posher cars….etc. People walk around with spiritually unimportant goals in their minds driven by the need to succeed and be better than others around them. Hong Kong. South Korea. Japan. Most Asian countries suffer from this ill-fate which have caused a horrific rise in the number of suicide rates in the said countries. Malaysia is no exception as well although we’re very slowly gaining ground on our neighbors. Just picking up my son from school can become a stressful affair. I’ve mentioned this to a few friends of mine over the phone and all of them cluck their tongue shake their head. It’s end of the year and the kids are getting their test results back by now. I overheard a couple of tai-tais (housewives) gripe about their kids’ results. Mom: I don’t know-lah. My kid did not do very well this term. The best also got 95 only. (NINETY FIVE ONLY???) ...
