Milestoned!

As sponge bob square pants would say it "Hurraaaay!!!".. Yes finally I have stopped smoking and achieved my personal milestone -that is stop smoking for a year. One year! Never did it ever crossed my mind that I would even pass one week when i first tried it. Many obstacles along the way that nearly made me pick up that unhealthy stick again. I can only hope that my good friends can be inspired by this personal "feat" that I have achieved and follow me into a healthier lifestyle... Swimming anyone? haha

Ok secondly, today is my getting-older-day. haha.. 23 years old my life gone.. Thank God that I am given the opportunity to live my life this long to see what the world has to offer today. Some people dint even make it this far. I know a a good friend who dint... Recently I had flashbacks of my life when I was growing up. Hard life dude. It ain't that easy. But now as I recall back I can laugh some of it off.. like how I use to eat peanut butter using a spoon and eat it straight from the tub? I only did it when my mum is working at night and my siblings all asleep. My mum always wonder how the peanut butter finish up so fast every time she buys one. Of course being the exemplary brother, I never admitted to the act. haha..Then one day she came back from work earlier cos' she was not feeling well.. and I was happily eating the peanut butter in the living room... *drumrolls* she got so angry that she shoved down the whole peanut butter down my throat using large spoonfuls of it! hahaha evil mummy. I really thought I was going to die. Headlines of the newspaper started appearing in my mind.. "Death by Peanut Butter" or "Peanut butter overdose"or "Budak mati dirodok kacang mentega".. After that i stopped that bad habit of eating peanut butter that way.. In fact I had phobia of eating peanut butter normally! Well I then started a new found more delicious habit - eating Milo.. LOL! ok but i stopped that too... only sometimes.. hehe

Talking about evil mummy.. I have been beaten up by mum using all the method any mother can think of.
Instruments used:
-Hundreds of 30 cents thin cane. (pain as hell)
-My father's belt which has big buckles
-The wooden part of the normal house sweep
-The wooden part of the normal house mop
-The house feather duster
-My old rattan house chair
-Clothes hangers
-Shoes
-Her bare hands
and the deadliest weapon.. Her nagging.. it can last for 2 hours i tell you........ haha but it is all in the past now.. She is the best mummy ever! its for the better of me anyway. :) Some of the little things that i remember during those days...

Anyway, what I realised is that when we grow older each day we tend to be wiser and have more things to aim in life. There will always a reason for everything that we do. We don't just do it for the purpose of doing it. Everything we do has a practical reason behind it. Purpose in life is very important to me. If u don't have a purpose, start finding one!

Ok peeps till next time.
