A leopard never changes its spots.
I went to a local telco to pay off my broadband bill which has been delaying for months (Veli the poor ah aih -_-) Alright, it's actually i hate visiting to XX with lousy customer service, lining up to get number that there are almost 50 turns before it's my turn, sitting down beside some random uncles who will stare at you like they have never seen any young sweet girl in their entire life (I am LOL), some shaking their legs, some just....I don't know but very unlikely you will like that kind of situation and environment. Everything is moving fast, people talking loud, passing fast as if everyone is mad rushing, and sometimes they just crowded over the front desk.
CHIP CHAP CHIP CHAP CHIP CHAP......
You must be saying, pay online la deng, what era now edi still go line up to pay bills meh!
I know. I KNOW. But i have no idea why always when i wanted to pay online, it will not show me the bill! ERROR - it shows each time without failing!!! Therefore i have to go through all the noisy CHIP CHAP CHIP CHAP CHIP CHAP..... Therefore i got so annoyed at why Malaysian don't queue up? Therefore i got so annoyed by the congested crowds in the front desk. Therefore i decided to put on my earphone and turn on my Lisa Ono. Therefore out of the sudden, i thought about Japan.
Supermarket workers try in vain to save products from falling from the shelves.
Seriously, when earthquake hits, the first thing they did was not thinking ohmygod earthquake has come, i have to run as fast as possible the slower i run the faster i die!
BUT......
THEY RUSHED TO RESCUE THE WINE T___T
Their extreme calmness during emergency and how devoted workers they are into their own profession just make me T.O.T.A.L.L.Y speechless. Salute.
I heard from Flyfm that what happening in Japan now is that people are lining up to get food, water and other necessities supply, one by one so patiently, without looting and pillaging. Not even pushing and fighting. Japanese themselves are organized, controlled, independent and calm in dealing with the disastrous tragedy, they maintained quiet dignity despite dwindling supplies of necessities and electricity.
Chaos simply does not take place in Japan.
There's no looting of Japanese museum.
There's no protest wanting Prime Minister Naoto Kan to be impeached.
There's no panicking among the nation.
I wonder how could they do that? Let's just take our country as example. Have you ever take KTM - especially during peak hours? Not exaggerating, but it is and will remain forever ever as my nightmare in my entire life. During 5 to 6pm, DO NOT take KTM because everyone is trying so hard to push each other as if it is a disgrace to themselves for not being able to get into the poor commuter.
I have been through a lot of bad experiences taking KTM and suffice to say, I HATE IT.
There was once, i got so fed up with the pushing so i waited 3 rounds for the crowds to finally become lesser. Sometimes, i no eye see and let the crowds to push me inside. Sometimes, i being very high fighting spirit, wanted to get home desperately, will push with them together - nah, malaysian attitude, what a disgrace.
If there is one day, mother earth got so fuckup with blessed Malaysia with no natural disasters threw an earthquake here, everyone will die - not because of the earthquake itself also die of panicking pushing fighting and all.
Japan's grace under fire makes everyone of us succumbed to their communitarian spirit - which is the foundation of Japanese culture. I read some news and saw someone described the trait Japanese demonstrated is "gaman" or preserverance, that as children growing up, it is well instilled in them via their parents & school system.
GAMAN - ガマン - if you use a google translator, it means 我慢 in chinese. As Japan Times defines it, "In Japanese, the word "GAMAN" means the display of calm forbearance and poise in the face of adverse circumstances beyond one's control."
In a nutshell, I take my hat off to all Japanese, a truly civilized nation.
I felt like a freeloader taking granted for every breath, a yummy chicken thigh, a comfortable bed to lay and roll & etc. Should us learn this respected value of them, GAMAN?

所以阿,有时候做自己也挺累的。
我觉得失去尊严,就好象触碰到了自己的底线,没了尊严,再继续卑微的爱下去,如果对方不珍惜,也是枉然。。。
随着年龄的增长。你会慢慢懂得更多
回顾以前,自己是如此的....
