H1N1


Home quarantined. Seriously, I never taught that it would happen to me... and I'm actually very confused on the guidelines of being home quarantine too... How do we really monitor and control the viruses from getting it widely spread?

My colleague was confirmed to have infected with the latest hottest virus in town H1N1...
Everyone in my company was paranoid because of this, and therefore we're closed down for 5 days for quarantine purposes. We're all sent back home for quarantine until today.
Not much difference in the office except for some of my colleagues who started to wear on their mask... +_+''' well, it for the hygiene and safety purposes... but if i'm not mistaken our office was 'disinfected' during the weekend, so i guess its safe to say that we're now safe to continue work in this infamous 1st private sector that declared to be infected with H1N1...

We were on TV, Ntv7's Mandarin News... they covered the news about our company's condition... making us the 1st private sector that closed down to quarantine... Hmm... Free publicity? hehehe... some of my friends even called up to ask whether the company that the news mentioned was the company i was working for... hmm...

But seriously... H1N1 is really freaking everyone out... though there's still no fatal cases due to this virus, yet... (In Malaysia specifically), but it is really spreading out, spreading among us real fast! But come to think of it, its really hard to contaminate this virus nowadays, especially when we're living in such a globalized society and we get people coming in and out from the country everyday.
Mutation... everything is mutating... viruses, people's mind set, and everything else that was once pure and original... I don't know... Maybe that's how life is... time changes everything...
Anyway.... i better put on my mask too just in case... well, you'll never know... :P

The Incomplete Me

'What if...?' This is what i would like to think of when I'm standing in the middle of a crossroad... All the endless possibilities that would change every path or journey that i might be heading.

I admit, not all the choices i made are the correct ones, and some really made me regretful, but even so... the contradiction in this situation is, if i would have another chance to choose again, i would still make the same decision. Because i understand, that its impossible for one to be 100% perfect, and its the imperfectness in me that makes myself unique. All the experience that i have learned from the past made me who i am now, be it making the better me or the worst me, I still have no regrets of the experience that I've gain throughout these years.

Naive, is the word i would describe myself, for believing that if you put in as much effort as you can to achieve something, then you would eventually get it... for believing that all people around you would be genuine treating you good and think for you... for believing that if you treat a person well, in return they too would appreciate and be kind to you too...
Well... Life ain't as ideal as it seems to be when people grow older... You tend to see things in a more realistic perspective and sadly in a more pessimistic way too. I want to believe that we could still have dreams, and awaits it to come true... but somehow, it just seems to be me being too optimistic...

I really have the passion that i would be thrilled to give out if i were given the chance to show it. But unfortunately, I just can't seemed to find the right opportunity. Or is it me being too choosy? :s well... I guess, that leads me to the incomplete me... which I'm still working my way to find the self fulfillment in my life... I know i can't be naive anymore, but still i do hope to be as optimistic as i could. Somehow i still believe that determination conquers all obstacles... and i really hope that I'm right...

We should live for the future and have our past to be our best guidelines to seek our way to self satisfaction and fulfillment.
