'D'

Am hitting an all time low on the 'D' note. Some things are better left unsaid? Let me illustrate in colours then... since I'm not adept at talking. 

Teddy rain on me bento

時々 、私は雨がほしいなあテディベア.. だから私の弁当今日のテディ雨した。

Sometimes, I wish it would rain teddy bears.. so I made teddy rain on my bento today.

希望あなたが好きだ。

Hope you like it.

Santa, will you bring me...?

Dear Santa, spunkz is a good girl today. I woke up before daylight and packed my silly cuzzy 4 inari to work. I made myself a bento too. Too big to finish on my own. So on account of that, will you bring me my dream oven (a real one that bakes beautifully), a fridge (I'm not particular as long as it has a freezer), a chopping board, more craft punchers, gorgeous art papers, some to-die-for embossers, colour pens, a nice swell blender and a sack full of money? Oh and this is solid proof that I made the bento:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

P/S: Sorry for the quality of the pictures. Took em near the balcony as light was scarce in the morning. I was in a rush for time as well coz I finished the bento at 8 am. Hence the blurry pic for the last one. Ahh.. have fun spotting the christmas trees!

Where Are You Christmas?

I love watching Christmas movies and cartoons. I miss this song so much after our old pc crashed with my beloved trove of songs. It's by Faith Hill and from the movie 'The Grinch'. Thanks Spooky for playing it on your blog. No wonder we are sisters.  :)

"Where Are You Christmas"

Where are you Christmas
Why can't I find you
Why have you gone away
Where is the laughter
You used to bring me
Why can't I hear music play

My world is changing
I'm rearranging
Does that mean Christmas changes too

Where are you Christmas
Do you remember
The one you used to know
I'm not the same one
See what the time's done
Is that why you have let me go

Christmas is here
Everywhere, oh
Christmas is here
If you care, oh

If there is love in your heart and your mind
You will feel like Christmas all the time

I feel you Christmas
I know I've found you
You never fade away
The joy of Christmas
Stays here inside us
Fills each and every heart with love

Where are you Christmas
Fill your heart with love

What We Can Do

Restrictions. Boundaries. Shut up and no questions.

We're bred in a society that tells us what not to do, rather than what we can do.

The rationale behind could be the niggling fear within the higher ones that with inquiring minds and adventurous explorations, there will be questions abound. Coming out with an answer requires much work, so why bother encouraging questions in the 1st place?

While certainty can put minds at ease, it's not healthy for the growth and development of the nation. We need to get those brain juices flowing. So what if we plummet into an immeasurable situation? A situation which one is unable to derive a solution still with all the tools and knowledge at hand?

The answer? We need to create something out of nothing. We need assumptions, presumptions, experiments, hypothesis till we can prove a theory. A new theory.

What's the worst scenario if an upper one can't provide an answer to its people? I can't think of any. Unless one wants to take those useless pride into account, the selfish want of avoiding red-faced scenarios, which is pure bullshit. C'me on, we're all humans. It's better to share the puzzle with the people, get plenty more questions and have one of em stumbling upon a great discovery. Rather than shying away & be the king in your own land and a pauper in the eyes of the world, stop imposing your opinions on others and allow the people to grow and expand their horizons.

It's not necessary to provide an answer to each question. Encouraging the process of thinking itself is a great step forward.

So now tell us what we can do. And let us get cracking.


** I am one of those who say, "No, we can't do this. We can't do it that way..." and all the blah upon reflex, normally out of die-hard habits. This post is written upon reflections that I'm guilty of imposing self-barricading restrictions or what Buu will say, limiting beliefs. :)

If it sounds all too grim, pls forgive me. I'm just writing to remind myself or if there are actually any other ppl reading this blog that next time round that what we could do is go, "Hey, we should experiment this way and see if it works" or "Hey, that new road over there might just lead me out of this iffy place".

It takes practise to shake off the mentality of wanting to be certain of the way we solve a prob, and not willing to take the risk and plunge into infiniteness. I've started, and want to be reminded, just like this. :)

Erm, if this post does sound cryptic.. pls do let me know. I'll need to fine tune my style of writing in that case. I did not encrypt any hidden meanings, honestly. Just a generalisation of our everyday life. Till the next post, cheerio~

Christmas wish

My wish for Christmas is

... for him to stand up on his feet again.
