Not another suicide case?
17 years old, what a beautiful age to live. 17 years old, the world is still full with excitement and surprises. There’s so much things waiting for us to explore, but why suicide for love?
A 17 years old girl chooses to end her life after breaking up with her boyfriend. She wrote a lot of messages on her Facebook, claiming that she won’t live till that day. Friends and family try to understand her, but she wouldn’t speak out.
In the end, on 8th of February, she ran out from classroom and jump off from 2nd floor. She died of head injury.
Suicide for love should become a serious issue ever since Alviss Kong’s case, especially among teens. How has love created such a narrow view to teens? I don’t know if the media is one the factor or not. Movies or dramas nowadays love to use suicide as their spice up ingredients. Small little matter and the character will yell for suicide.
Family and friends should pay more attention to them. Sometimes a small tiny action can tell you their next step. Especially social network nowadays had become a place for everyone to vent. They speak out what they thought in everything. Therefore whenever they wrote something suspicious on their status, please lend them some time and give them a bit of concern. They might change their mind, and they can explore what are the best things in their life.

Reunion
 
Chinese New Year had always been a great celebration for all Chinese. Wanderers are trying all their best to get back home. Reunion has always been the most important tradition in Chinese families. They believe that anything can be solved once the family is gathering together.
For this year, it might be a tough year for people in Johor, Melaka, Negeri Sembilan. Flood happened before the festival. The other areas of people are busy with cleaning up house, but they had to deal with flood. They had no place but to escape to a safer place. Their home had been destroyed by the flood. Everything is in a mess.
Still, wanderers have made their plan to meet their relatives and friends. They used all the methods they could, just to see if everyone is safe. It may seem like tragedy; still some of them cook in the evacuation centers. They even shared with other family. There’s a Chinese proverbs, “You can always get the warmest comfort when you’re in trouble”. This has been carry forward at here.
Though Mother Nature can be cruel at times, still it might be a sign of reminding us, what have we forgotten and left behind. Looking at all the pictures and news, my heart sense deeply that we shouldn’t forgot how beautiful all these pictures may seem. “Reunion”, such a beautiful word that ever exist in any way.

The Cause of Stubborn Act


It all happened for a small tiny reason, yet it so powerful and cause such a big chaotic in Tunisia, Egypt. Slowly, the whole progress went on to whole nation.
23 years of governing, much longer than our former Prime Minister, Tun Dr Mahathir, Zine El Abidine Ben Ali, had been toppled down by his own resident. In the past, he was the most powerful man that ever led in Tunisia. When he grew older, things aren’t looking good than yesterday. In fact, people criticized him “too old to be president”. Things might look better if he would listen to his resident and step down.
Due to his stubborn, such a massive chaotic happened. Even US President, Mr Barack Obama had to step up and ask him to listen to the residents.
Why had this happened? I wonder. Somehow, a conversation with my family member makes me thought a lot. She said, it’s because of the power he’s holding. Egypt had been the most famous tourist spot. But the residents were never treating equally. Therefore many crimes happened. Rape, kidnap for ransom, murder, gang fight, fraud, all you name it. Class division is as strong as India. The rich one will get all the power; the poor one had to work for their entire life.
For now, we can’t do anything but pray to forgive their sins they’ve made.
