18++
Since 2 Nov 09 to date has been like 18 days that i am here in hte middle of the ocean. Still floating on good weather and also on bad weather, just having one aim which is to be around until they finish drilling this well. To ask me when can complete, i have got no firm answer as i ran out of answers to myself, all i am doing now is go with the flow. Why? Cause it is kind of dissapointing to me and those who wants me back in town by giving them false hope. So rather not giving false hope, i better not give any definite answer as well. Just hope to be back to town asap, as there are lots that i need to do before year end, some of it would be consider life changing decisions...
Change...
As always, change is inevitable in life. In fact i am now looking for some changes in my life as well, perhaps been in this comfort zone too much already and has felt the boredom of it already, just too lazy to move away. Looking forward to better opportunity and also chance to bloom, rather than sulking and not acting over it time after time.

1 liter of tears...
Had this movie for quite sometime, but didnt have the opportunity to watch it yet, as most of the time i was thinking that there are some other movie to watch other than this known sad movie. As usual, human will always have the habit of turning to something happy rather than something sad, so this movie has been rescheduled to a later date.
However on this trip to offshore, i brought along the DVD for this drama, and i started watching it in 2 days. At last completed the 11 episode of the drama, which is filled with tears, sorrow, happiness, strength, courage, friendship and family bond. What a great movie, no wonder the diary of Aka was sold so many copies all around, not to make everyone know her story of how sad her life was, but to give inspiration to everyone out there; for those who are sick and not 'perfect', you have your life too, and should live to the fullest and also to fight fight fight until the end; for those who are not that 'perfect', you still have a life and you should life on with the shortcoming of life and not just waste life and let it be. You may do your part to contribute to the society and mostly, your own life!
Life is short, you may not know what will come tomorrow or the destiny sets upon you. However you may choose your life and decide how you want to live for today and the days ahead. Don't just leave it to fate and let it be, instead fight on and enjoy life at the same time enjoy love; love of friends who cared, love of someone special to us in life and love of family members whom will not desert us until the very last minute (in normal circumstances applicable though there are family members whom are selfish and live for the sake of themselves only).
I too will live life to the fullest, can't wait for me to be back in town @ KL. So much more to do, so much more to venture and live to move forward with! I will be back!!!

Late then never - My CNY wishes :-)
Happy Chinese New Year, though late wishes, today is already the 12th day of the chinese calendar, but better than no wishes for this year. Hmm... CNY this year had its pros and cons. This year, the CNY leave is considered good, as for those in KL working, taking 3 days off will result in straight 10 days holiday. What more can you expect if it was not 10? I wanted to take more days off but guess good things need to come to an end, why not leave it to later when it could be best utilised :-) Cons is that i am so happen to be on-call throughout the celebration, with money for sure, but the feel of not able to enjoy the fullest and had to carry my laptop with me when visiting. Imagine, bringing laptop bag around during CNY, not the best thing that could ever happen. Why? Cause laptop bag can be considered as 'book bag' or in cantonese is pronounce is 'shu pau' which means sure lose. Surely those gambler would not want to meet me with that bag :-)
Since this year is not that good in terms of economic stability of the world nations, which also include our tiny country, just hope that things will turn out fine for me in terms of my work and hope there is progress over all and chances of advancement. Also hope all my family and friends would stay healthy and happy in life, bet that is the most important one in life. Some may hope for wealth and etc, but come to think of it, happiness is the main thing for me in life. Old fashion? Perhaps but what more can we get out of life if we are not happy clocking our daily shifts of our lifetime? Tell me or share with me if you have your thoughts.
What is left? Another 3 days more to go and CNY is over. Sigh, why time passes so damm fast, and the meaning of CNY seems to be fading, more to a days off rather than some big celebration. This year i tried to bring back some tradions back to my home, helped to decorate my house with some red stuff and hangging items, that could obviously bring up the CNY mood and as well to chip in to the reunion dinner with my relatives. Also to help out in preparing the food and not just sit and wait for food like the previous years, kind of like the idea of preparing for CNY as one whole family :-)
All well so far... hope this year will be a better year for all :-)

What could be the best earning jobs with the fuel price hike?
Found an interesting article that was submitted by a reader to The Star newspaper recently. It goes as follow:
If that is the case, why are we still sitting in office? Perhaps get a lorry and start sending or delivering milks from house to house, we might get a better salary instead, thanks to those big bro sitting in office talking about politics and forgot all about us, our life, our sufferings, our daily chores and etc. Perhaps when they remember us, they would just tell us, change is inevitable, there is nothing much you can do about it. You just have to follow your beloved leaders that you have choosen to lead you through the think and thin. So end of the day, they will just give us a pat on our shoulder, be brave and stand strong, we will make it through. You jus thave to change the way how you live daily life.
This is indeed another story all together but let me refer you to another blog that says it all. Read all about it here -> http://musingwithmarinamahathir.blogspot.com/2008/06/you-walk-talk-first.html
Great observation there by Sapling. I am wondering if our beloved minister is not wise enough to pick those up instead and needed public to voice out or show the maths calculation to him/her. Do he/she needs it or they have overlooked it?Profiteering from fuel hike is killing
IF the state of Kedah will receive RM16bil by way of revenue for logging the catchments how much is the contractor making?
How was the contractor chosen or did he approach the MB direct?
Sort of reminds me of the “tropical storm” that conveniently “took” all the decent trees and left the spindly ones and the ones at the resorts in the Desaru area a couple of years ago! Why is everything to do with vehicles based on cubic capacity (cc) when every schoolboy can tell you that nowadays a 2000cc car can deliver 300+ horsepower (EVO / Subaru etc) and a 3000cc >180hp
We are not living in the 50s when cc = hp! Rebate should be by type – obviously a family vehicle is not a sports car.
Why does the fuel increase raise the price of milk in JB by RM1 per container? One lorry of 20 tonnes = 20,000 litres = RM20,000 extra for transport.
One lorry may burn 200+ litres per trip of diesel = RM160 per trip extra. How? Why isn’t our Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Ministry doing something? The fuel hike really isn’t that big a deal, it had to happen, it's the profiteering that's killing!SAPLING,Johor Baru.

Yes Fuckers!!! Burn in Hell!!!
In echo to one of the blog that i read at the URL: http://www.fireangelism.com/2008/06/04/fuck-you-motherfucking-sonofbitches/
WHY ???
1) Sudden JUMP of Fuel price - giving and taking back all of a sudden = Buruk Siku
2) Only TAKE never GIVE, think RM625 enough? At least give back subsidise on FOOD stuff else, we will starve or our wallet will burn... and at the end of the day, PAY never RISE!!!
3) NEVER heard of grace period? After MIDNIGHT? FUCK, create havoc, rush, panick and unconvenience to all motorist. Been subsidizing for so many years, what is a day or two, to ease the motorist and not to create the long queue at the stations.
I think it is rationale to cut the subsidise in stages or within a year or two but it should be proper planned out. Do you see any plannings? Nope i didn't. Sitting on the rocky chair already, still want to shake shake? Fuck, wanna have a great fall like Humpty? Be wise, at least give us something sweet before giving us the poison... help out on other price hike (like chicken, rice, flour, BABI and etc) and also improve local public transport, at least make improvement and not just privatise it and ask them to go play far far...when things get fucked up, then take back... Farking stupid!!!
**Reality - Nothing is FREE forever !!!

~ My Updates Lately ~
Hmm... My mood now --> Sleepy !!! Not fully awake. Feel like crashing in my bed and sleep like nobody's world. Needs to wake up and get my ass to do something useful :) Lets blog !!!
Life been a little down or pretty uninteresting lately. Not been doing much interesting stuff to keep my mood meter up. These while, it has been either work or go back home to rest, when i get to see the time, it has already too late to do much and yet too early to rest. Perhaps i just don't want the time to past too quick and not able to spend the time efficiently.
Hmm...What do i want to do to spice things up? Perhaps to do something that i enjoy. Will be having long weekend this coming weekend as i will be working on weekend next week, so i would fully utilize it :) What will i be doing or in my plans?
1) Bowling - So long never bowl, want to hear the crashing sound of the ball and the pins.
2) Photo Shooting - need to improve my skills and also play with the new gadget; flash + diffuser
3) Some Running - Running lets me relax or exercise is good :)
4) Wall Climbing - get over with the course and start belaying
5) Short Trip - PD prob, with my family for Wesak Day...
6) Doing something meaningful - attending charity dinner
7) Rest and more rest - Recharge...
8) Drive around...
Hmm... Have you come to realize that you have not done much in life or achieve much yet at a certain age? What i have been doing much lately is Work, Sleep/Rest, Hanging out with friends, Hanging out with my gf, Hanging out with my family and other stuff, but those are just so repetitive and have so little meaning. At the end of the day, it is just the simple conversation or the same things that we do with those respective person. Hmm, need to wake up and work on some other thing so that to make each and every moments counts and be as meaningful as possible... Would not want to lose much of my precious time in life :)

Looking for the path
These few days i have been quite lazy where i spend it on my bed focusing on the TV. Mostly continuing on the Grey Anatomy and also the House MD series. From my knowledge, i do have quite a number of stuff for me to do this week or which is pending on my waiting list. Those are; prepare my PPR, writing a documentation on the IAD, learn more of the INSITE & IA system, get myself a passport from the immigration department, do some reading, exercise and etc but i end up doing nothing much other than watching movies and series to fill my time. Guess some how i could say i am wasting some of my precious time. God, i really need to get something done properly for life !!!

Already 12-12-07
Its soon gonna be year end already. Countdown for 19 more days to go before we bid farewell to year 2007. Wow, yesterday was on a conversation with Sarah, can't believe how old we are getting already. Known her for about 5 years plus already and we both have left the university, UTAR for about 1 to 2 years plus already and those was the old time when we had in university as a student still but now we are no longer student and there are no rooms for mistakes in life. A Small mistake which eventually could cost us dearly in life, so each step is taken in consideration. But this does means that we are stepping more into the adulthood but this would not also means that there would be no more fun and excitement in life... How dull a life could be is those are deprived, what would be the meaning of life? Don't want my meaning of life to be solely on my work and that's it. It needs different meaning and may it evolve as time goes by...
Let us welcome the coming year 2008...Hear it will be a bad luck year for doggies? Hmm...hope not really true as i still would like to have a nice and enjoying yet fruitful year ahead... Let us make life better yeay...

Cloudy weather, moody feel
Been seeing rainy clouds hovering over kl, raining from morning until late evening or to the extend at night, cold breeze and also less sun light. These has been the condition for the past few days which also reflects to my mood. Been not feeling well since last week, then went to see doctor with the medication for cough and cold where the medicine made me a little blur or drowsy, hence my first 3 days of my week just past with lots of sleep and lazy bugs. Working on Thursday still affected by the medicine, drowsy at some point of time, by Friday feeling much better already. But Friday will have a different meaning for other as compared to me as i would still need to work for this weekend where i would only be having my off day on Monday when others are returning to work. This is the kind of adjustment that i must make...
Now looking out of the window from the monitoring room, outside is still dark, no sun visible and guess the day will remain like this until the end of the day where i head back home to rest for the coming tomorrow. Sigh. I do miss the sunlight too, at least it can bring the cheerful side of us when we are feeling blue...

My insomnia for today !!!
sigh, i lay awake having an alert mind hence decided to wake up and burden my mind so that it gets tired in order for the to resume my efforts to sleep sooner or later. Needed the sleep to rest my body to fight against the little flu that i still have in me.
Why i can't sleep? Maybe due to the weird working days i am having for this week. This coming 2 or 3 weeks, i will be working on the weekend shift, where will be working from Thursday to Sunday and my off days would be on Monday until Wednesday. Weird? When others are working, i am sleeping or staying at home where when others are enjoying their weekend, i would then be at work.
I guess i am still adjusting to my new working environment which includes the work day, time of work and the rest. Not complaining, but just expressing. To change some habits or from a comfort zone to a total new environment, is not something as easy i could have imagine it. Now i need to synchronize my activity charts for this week and the coming 2 weeks in order to live a productive week ahead.
What i have done yesterday? Nothing much, was doing some reading for those I-Learn stuff which is pre-requisite where i need to complete it as soon as possible to scrap of the 'incompetent' where related to those pre-requisites.
Found few techie things to play with as below:
- Foldershare software - https://www.foldershare.com/
- which sync the folder of two computer
- tested with a .avi file with the size of 150MB through my sucky Internet connection and also the non-cooperative wireless router but i manage to get that sync in less than 20 minutes with an average of transfer rate of 60-70kbps
- cool feature if would to share some files quickly
- E-snips website - http://www.esnips.com
- website for online sharing up to 5GB of FREE storage
- able to keep public or private folders
- able to store photos (create a slide show online) or digital music (streaming or downloading) from the site
- DynDNS - Dynamic DNS
- to tie the dynamic IP to a customized domain name where once point to the domain name, it would still point to the same object despite the change of IP Address
- UltraVNC
- software to allow the local computer to gain control of the remote control
- was using that software sometime back, but stopped using it for sometime
- great to control my home computer from office whenever i am working
As i am blogging now, i am still having the cough from time to time. Its bothering me and also my sleep. Can't sleep well with that, gosh...i really need to rest my body and soul...Ah, forget to mentioned that while blogging, i am watching the House MD, Season 1 just to kill time while waiting for my body to get tired. The episode is coming to an end, perhaps i should get some sleep soon...for the sake of tomorrow?
What i would want to do tomorrow?
- I-Learn - finish a few more pre-requisites
- Watch some movies
- Shopping @ MidValley
- Read up more on INSITE & Insite Anywhere
- Etc...

Would miss the great time @ SITI
Sigh, just can't lay myself to sleep. Just can't sleep but instead have been lying on the bed, feeling tired and sleepy but yet not able to sleep. My mind is pretty much awake. Funny is that my mind is constantly thinking about my last few days in Shell. Moat probably the coming Wednesday, 24 October 2007. That would be another 3 working days before i end my work in Shell IT Intl. Throughout the hour plus lying on my bed, i have been recalling the past moments and days that i have spend throughout the year in Shell. It was just like yesterday when i started my journey in Shell and tomorrow the journey will be concluding. My heart may feel sad to leave and doesn't really want to leave, but i am left with not much choice.
I have been thinking of what kind of message to leave to the team and to some individuals that have helped me throughout my stay in Shell for the past year. I would really miss them much. Let's hope that our path will cross once again. Thank you to all for the wonderful time. Hope i can get some sleep soon as it is already late in the early morning.

The decision is made
It was a boring day, lazy indeed. Hard time waking up and what make it worst is that the traffic is a bit bad this morning. Reach office, saw Sarah. Chat with her for a while before we went for coffee. Not in the mood to work, perhaps still waiting. Waiting for the moment where i broke the news to him.
We had a meeting with the whole team at 4pm, not much after all. As i mentioned to my friend, 'let's see if he can sweep my feet off', guess not as she says eventually, 'there was no wind at all'. Haha.
After a session of Foosball, i decided to go over to see my boss to break the news to him, after long wait time, finally he was released out from his meeting. He ask, 'Y' or 'N'. I say 'N'. He says hmm... then says more to discuss tomorrow. Just that it. After that, i felt relief but later i felt sad. Probably as i have given the final answer, whether to stay or to leave. It is not easy as i have been with the team almost a year in 4 days more to come. One whole year to be where i am now and with the whole team after so many people come and go. Gosh, it ain't going to be easy to live this month plus, especially the last week.
I drove home with a disturb heart and mind. Nothing much to think about as all need to be said has been said. Just don't have the mood, drove as fast as i could. Zoom...and within 40 minutes, i am at Lucky Garden already, waiting for my food to be ready. There i go, back to my home, awaiting for tomorrow to emerge. How would tomorrow be? How would i feel?

Goodbye Khairul, my dear colleague
Khairul, is one of my colleague in my work place, SITI. Met him around December 2006 last year as he joined back the team after his graduation from his university. He was way earlier in the team than me, just that he joined as a intern earlier and he has back to work with the team once again. Heard stories of him before he came in during December 06. We have been close friend as we have the same fate, working together as a team in order to achieve our mission of the whole team. We have worked nights together, giving support, teaching each other what is lack in us and had all the great times together despite of the boring jobs that we might face daily and the never ending demand of our business sector customers and also from our bosses.
The news of his departure came to me in early July where he was called back to work for Petronas as he was still bonded to the university to a certain extend in order to repay his loan for his study fees. The exact date for his departure is this coming Wednesday which is 15 August 2007. Throughout his days in the team, he has done quite a lot, to his limits of what he can do and poured a lot more efforts into getting things done.
As his days in SITI is coming to and end very soon, he is preparing for his last day by concluding all his work this far and also to get know to those team members which he didn't make time earlier as he was too intense with his work, but he is spending his last few weeks wisely to get in touch with those guys and gals of our team.
As for us, we are speding our time to get his some surprises for a dear colleague of us who will embark on a new journey of his life. Though we are departed by our working place but we can always be friends and get in touch easily together.
I am hoping the best for him and for us too, Sarah and me as the three of us were the most close one in the team as the three of us are the most junior one but not senior enough, always stuck in between. All the best buddy :)

Changes
When coming to changes, we will always refer to change in body mass, change in skin texture, change of favorite brands, change of job, change of some minor things. But we seldom realize that the change can be as a whole where it could reflect to daily life or namely one’s life. Changes in one’s life can never be avoided, or planned accordingly and normally it will lead on to another change.
Change? Changes. Changing. Changed.
Change?
This is one of the element of life that is a must. There are variations of change. Starting from changing of diapers, changing of milk bottles, changing of shoes, changing of school, changing of teachers, changing of friends we mix with, changing of hobbies, changing of loved ones, changes in the number of our loved ones, changes in our age, changes of work life and so much more changes. It can be minor change, major change or drastic change. We can plan change in life (eg. when to change our clothing, when to change partners, when to change our friends or when to change our body parts – plastic surgery) and there is also unplanned change (eg. was planning to visit World Trade Center by year 2000 but who could have planned to go to the new WTC or the old WTC?). As mentioned, change is inevitable and unavoidable but we can always review our change and to change according to changes that is deemed best. A change can lead to more change and changes can change you. Why let changes change you rather than you change yourself?
Changes.
We finally know that change is on the way. Somehow we would not be able to avoid change as we bound to change in different part of our life. How can we plan change in our life? We often think hard on how to change our life to the better, but perhaps we have thought wrongly. We often relate change to achievements in life. But change does not only reflect to achievement in terms of monetary value, position we held or the friends we mix with. I have found a good website that can provide us a simple guideline to implement change in our life on the balance way. The website address would be, http://stress.about.com/od/lowstresslifestyle/tp/happiness.htm . Some of the highlights and comments from the website is as below:
“We all want to be happy, and often we strive for that new car, bigger house, or promotion at work in order to find the elusive goal of a happy and satisfied life. However, often the car or house or new position come, but doesn't bring the happiness we expected. The following goals and changes can be relatively easily attained and can bring increased and lasting happiness. Now is the time to start incorporating them into your life!”
I totally agree with the above statements. Some people will say, they live to eat but to me I eat to live. Same as the above, I change to live a happy life not live to change myself. We change for a cause, the cause should not be just for the sake of change but for a deeper meaning in life where to achieve happiness J Just my thought, not all may agree to me though.
1. Find More Time For Yourself
“The feeling of not having enough freedom to pursue quality time with our families, revitalizing solitary activities, or other things that would nurture us can leave us feeling stressed and unhappy. If you would like to increase your level of happiness and life satisfaction this year, one of the best changes you can make is to find more time in your schedule for a life that reflects what you’d really like to be doing. These steps can help.”
Too much time is spend on chasing the quality of life but often we forget the essential necessity in life. Can differentiate between quality of life and essential necessity in life? One might have different interpretations of these, and I care not to elaborate further as I know most of people would understand this, just they often mixed up between the quality and the necessity. You may be able to earn tons of money for a day, perhaps up to 15 man hours, but what is left to enjoy those that we have sought. Who is there to wait for us to share the joy of the achievements? I can wait for a day, then another day, perhaps a few days more, if you are sincere I may wait up to a month, let say I have nothing much to do, I may wait up to a year but ever thinking what if it takes more than a year? Time past quicker than how we can realize and past time will never be replaced and there is obviously no turning back in life as there are no time machines in our life, if there is, how many times you would want to change your life as changes is never ending? So we should be fair in life, spend time to find quality in life, but do spend quality time enjoying the quality life that you have earned for. We can’t bring our wealth or fame to our grave, why not live life to the fullest? Don’t get me wrong, I am not asking you to spend your last cent before we check out of this world, we may leave some behind so that our loved ones need not work from zero up again. It is something like a small capital for our younger generations I guess.
2. Make Smart Money Choices
“Many people think they'll be happier if they can just get their hands on more money. However, once beyond the poverty level, more money doesn't usually bring more happiness, because with increased means often come increased desires. A more helpful solution is to make the money you already have to feel a greater sense of freedom and satisfaction in life. These tips can show you how to make the most of your current financial situation. “
Agree as human do have a sense of greed in them. There is always need to have, good to have and choice to have. It would be a need to have $1000.00 per month, but it would surely be good to have $1500.00 per month instead but if given the choice to have $2000.00 or more would not be too bad after all. We normally think that we do deserve the best in life and the best often refers to the infinite. Agree with me?
3. Take Care of Your Body
“If your health fails, it can overshadow everything else that’s going on in your life. From major health problems to minor aches and pains, health can really impact happiness and stress levels. Making a commitment to taking on healthier habits this year can have a far-reaching payoff: you’ll feel better in everything you do. Here are a few healthy habits that carry a big impact.”
Agree to this again. We always ask more for quality in life, but sickness and disease is never considered as one of them. What is quantity if there is no quality as we are sick and not well? We often ignore this as we took no notice of it until it is affected and we starts to regret by saying I should have done so and so but it is often too late already.
4. Adopt Stress Relievers That Work For You
“There are many things that contribute to a happy and satisfied feeling about life, but excess stress can put a damper on even the best conditions. If you're in a state of chronic stress, it's much more difficult to enjoy life. Find some stress relievers you can use and you will feel more at peace when things get hectic.”
Nothing much to explain on this, it is much self explanatory.
5. Get Involved In A Cause That You Believe In
“People are generally happier when they're living a life of meaning. And while you may not be able to cast off all of your worldly posessions in search of the true meaning of life, you can get involved in a cause that's important to you with minimal time, effort or cost. And even though you can get tax breaks, new friends or a cleaner house out of the deal, what you find in the way of life satisfaction will be the real reward. While you'll be helping others, you will truly receive more than you give. Why not start now?”
As the above states, we need to have a meaning to life in order to be generally happy. Find some worthy cause and work towards it, it will give you some other things to look at besides work. This is what we can say to achieve balance in life.
Changing.
This is what most of us are aware of, but took not much importance in life on this topic. Very seldom people would reflect the change on their life or bothered to review the changes that they have undergo. Perhaps most of the time, we are not trying hard to change, but we are trying hard to admit that one has change. We will always have the impression that the change was minimal and it has not much affect on one’s daily lifestyle. From my view, change is always change. Change is noticeable if one take the time to notice and review back the change that they have undergo. Just that sometimes we don’t bother to look at our changes as change happens so naturally, most of the time without us even noticing it. We just let it happen and having in mind it will just fall into its place, but do things just fall into its place or do we need to put in the effort as well? Why can’t we get some control of our life and determine where the things fall and we could arrange it in proper that taking our luck again.
Changed.
Many people may bump into you and says, you have had changes in life, you are a whole new you. That time, we realize that we have change. Why we realize? Because the comments came from someone else and would that comment be of positive or negative? Frankly, it could be both as words can be twisted and may have different meanings at different time. As were we being told that we have undergo some change without us planning or realizing it, now we know that change has taken place. But are we so naïve that we are unaware that change is taking place, perhaps we are too comfortable of the minor changes that is happen daily in life and eventually when we realize of the change, it already has been a big leap.
Changes-Changing-Changed is a cycle of changing in life for each individual. It is surely happen in our stages of life and it will have effect on life. To me, change is inevitable but we can always change to what we think would be best. Best here would always refers to myself, the people around me (I can’t be too selfish), to my loved ones, to my friends and to those who will walk in our life and would eventually leave their footprint in our life. We don’t change for a single cause but we do change as a whole. Changes can be good and can be bad. Good and bad may have different meaning after all and we can never define a single meaning for it.
My dear friend have gone through changes which I may never pint point as how I did last time. I can’t say changes were in the form of negative or positive, just that the changes that took place have change her as a whole. Despite the changes that have taken place, she will still be my dear friend for today and the days to come. Just that would always have the idea of turning back time in order to live the one time in life where we were all so comfortable with and where we have found our true self at the time. Sad to say, the time will never be the same, so does our friendship but I do know for sure you will always be my dear friend. This I am certain but I hope you don’t think that I have abandon you, I will never do such thing. Love you always and may you find your true happiness and don’t let it go once you find it my friend.
Change? Changes. Changing. Changed.
Change?
This is one of the element of life that is a must. There are variations of change. Starting from changing of diapers, changing of milk bottles, changing of shoes, changing of school, changing of teachers, changing of friends we mix with, changing of hobbies, changing of loved ones, changes in the number of our loved ones, changes in our age, changes of work life and so much more changes. It can be minor change, major change or drastic change.
