Musclés Dé Dansé: La Force Pour Habiter

The phrase 'La Force Pour Habiter' means 'the strength to live' in English.

"The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place... and I don´t care how tough you are, it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently, if you let it. You, me or nobody, is gonna hit as hard as life. But ain't about how hard you hit... It's about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward... how much you can take, and keep moving forward. That´s how winning is done. Now, if you know what you worth, go out and get what you worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hits. And not pointing fingers saying 'You ain´t what you wanna be because of him or her or anybody.' Cowards do that and that ain´t you! You´re better than that!"
Adapted from Sylvester Stallone's 2007 movie, Rocky Balboa

Musclés Dé Dansé: Quand la mort vous appelle

Quad la mort vous appelle is french for 'When Death Calls YOU'!!! Be cool after a long day of stress.

This is a true story of a young college girl who past away last year, at Shah Alam. Her name is Priya. She was hit by a lorry while going home. I don’t want to mention the name of the college.

She had a boy friend named Shankar. He stays in Johor. Both of them are true lovers. They are always on the phone to each other. You can never see her without her handphone, which Shankar bought for her. She spends 3/4 of the day talking with Shankar. Priya’s family knows about their relationship. Shankar is very close with Priya’s family. (Can you imagine their love?) Before she passed away she always told her friends, as well as her parents, “If I pass away please cremate me with my handphone”…

After her death, people couldn’t carry her coffin. I was there. A lot of them tried to do so but still could not carry it. Everybody, including me, had tried to carry her coffin, the result was still the same- it could not be carried. Eventually, they called their neighbor, a “bomoh” from Thailand (Pak Darin), who is a friend of Priya’s father. He sat down near the coffin and started speaking to himself slowly. After a few minutes, he said..

“This girl misses something here”. Then her friends told Pak Darin about her wish to cremate her with her phone. He then opened the coffin and placed her phone and SIM card inside the casket. After that, they tried to carry the coffin. It could now be moved and they carried it into the van easily. All of us were shocked. Priya’s parents didn’t inform Shankar that Priya had passed away. After 2 weeks Shankar called Priya’s mom. Shankar: “Atte, I’m coming home today, please cook something nice for me. Don’t tell Priya that I’m coming home today. I wanna surprise her.” Priya’s mother replied: “You come home first, I want to tell something very important to you.” After he came to Shah Alam, they told him the truth about Priya. Shankar thinks that they were playing the fool. He was laughing and said “Don’t try to fool me. Please tell Priya to come out. I have a gift for her. Please stop this nonsense”.

Then they showed him the original death certificate to him. They gave him this as a proof to make him believe. (Shankar started to sweat) He said.. “It’s not true, we spoke yesterday. She still calls me.” Shankar was shaking with fear by now.. suddenly, Shankar’s phone rang.

“Ai-ya-ya!! See, this is from Priya, see this…it’s her hand phone number” He showed the phone to Priya’s family. All of them told him to answer.

He talked using the loudspeaker mode…..all of them could hear his conversation. Loud and clear…no cross lines, no humming. It is the actual voice of Priya’s & there was no way others could use her SIM card since it is nailed inside the coffin. They were so shocked and asked for Pak Darin’s help again.

Pak Darin brought his master (Tok Chen) to solve this matter. He & Pak Darin worked for 5 hours…then they discovered one thing!!!

CELCOM has the fastest network, the widest coverage, best rates and service, the power is in your hands even six-feet-under!!!

Thanks Jegan!

Musclés Dé Dansé: Effort D'université

The Musclés Dé Dansé is a new series of posts starting with this post, Effort D'université. The French name can be translated as ‘The Dancing Muscles’ in English that symbolizes the continuous usage of muscles that comes from the Effort D'université, college stress. The whole series will be something like a college diary about college life.

Used to be home by three
Now I never get free
Everyone seems to agree
Student, I’ll be a dead tree

Work keeps coming until I don’t know time
I hardly can make this darned thing rhyme
Ain’t no bell and no chime
Getting killed, I’ll say I’m

Death maths takes away biology
Failure bring in psychology
Plenty more of anthropology
Parents, I’ll owe an apology

Exploration is fun with food
Nothing is better when meals are good
Teachers do change the mood
Patience, I’ll not be rude

Vans aren’t safe with my driver
Bile flows back into my liver
It’ll soon be over
Swing, I’ll get a fever

Memory losing into the red
Showing bright in my grade
Can’t remember to even sit straight
Concentrate, I’ll not be afraid

Failing is never nice
Not a game with a dice
It’s like how we get rice
Mom, Dad, I’ll arise

That is all I have got to introduce in college. Transport, human relations and college grades is a nightmare in college.

These quotations are just like many of the Entry To Hell posts that has a main theme that are elaborated through the use of modified quotations as well as some made by me. We should stand up to our fears, enemies and also views of others. This will give you a better view of my point of life in the quest towards the Mystery Of The Unknown.

Mystery Of The Unknown: The Sandwich Between Christmas And New Year

The Christmas day is regarded as one of the most sacred day to the 2.1 billion Christians in the world. But have you ever wondered whether Christmas has any meaning now with the various types of fogs clouding with commercial and political influences that comes in Christmas Sales, Guess The Gift In Santa’s Bag and many more. I cannot help but to consider this day the birthday of Jesus Christ or just a holiday splash that happens to be just a week from the New Year. I am not going to argue about the significant of the day since I am not a Christian but I just want to highlight the misuse of happy occasions.

For many Christians and also non-Christians, Christmas reminds everyone of the aroma of turkeys, chocolates and definitely the Ho-ho voice of Santa Claus. But Santa Claus is normally the main attraction especially to the children who hopes for gifts under their Christmas Tree. I have always queried about the story of Santa Claus and his reindeers from the North Pole. Various sources have stated that Santa Claus is actually St. Nicholas of Myra, a saint from Turkey, not the North Pole. The great man told in the story books and films was just a man who had a reputation for secret gift-giving, not a long white bearded fat man who always wears a red outfit with white trimmings.

Like other children, I have been thought since young that there is this man who rewards me with all my desires as long I behave well. But these lies told by majority of the Christian parents in the world are pure examples of the breaking of the eighth commandment, “Thou shall not bear false witness”. Although this act is clearly a sin, it seems this act has turned into a norm that even honorable Christian pastors commit. Do they have doubt in their beliefs or just a common mistake that is so normal that it becomes correct? Nobody knows.

New year is welcomes with the New Year’s Day on the first of January and this New Year is still the same as all the years since the creation of the Gregorian calendar and also the followers of the Eastern Orthodox churches using the Julian Calendar. Which ever calendar does not matter because the significant of the day did not change. People try their best to correct their mistake before that day to turn over a new leaf. This ‘ritual’ has been very popular and productive because many improvements have been made to make life easier to live.

For now, we are caught between Christmas Day and New Year’s Day that makes it a double prosperity for this week and I would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
