"There are two tragedies in life. One is not to get your heart's desire. The other is to get it" ~ George Bernard Shaw

This quote have always been a personal favourite of mine. It was written by George Bernard Shaw a playwright and socialist. He wrote this for one of his scripts, I don't know for which and honestly, I don't care...

Tragedies, a word commonly derived from disaster, which leads to pain and suffering. And that what life is all about, its about enduring all the pain and suffering that comes your way. When I first heard of this quote, I always though that getting you heart's desire was a tragedy because later when you lose it, you lose a part of yourself as well and that is heartbreaking. But recently, I found another form of tragedy. That tragedy is finding out that whatever desire you receive is not true as you hope it to be. That whatever you were feeling or felt was just a deception for momentary fix. Then when you figure it all out, you start to wonder at which moment was real and what was just the endurment for the other party. I fell in love but I found that love to be nothing more than a hoax like the alien in a round paper spaceship. That in the words of Maxwell Smart, "Is a sucker punch to the gonads". But this is worse, what I felt was torment to the hundreth degree. A flaw that I always had is to give my heart wholeheatedly to the people I love, and when they take my heart and shred it to millions of pieces, I have nothing to survive on. With all the fragments of my heart all over the place, one might say,"Pick up the pieces and place it altogether", and normally I would, but not this time. Why you may ask? Because I have finally realise why all this is happening. Everyone who knows me, would know that I am not a real candidate for the higher beings for all the deeds I have done. So this pain, is just payment and jugdement on me to pay for all the things I have done. This to me, was like the final wound. The cut is so deep that it has killed my soul, my will. Therefore, my will to live is no longer there, so now, I cross every street hoping that a car would hit me, I walk through every storm hoping I would get strike by lightning, I sit on every ledge hoping I would plummet, and the only reason it has not happen is because its not my time. I have to serve my time and this is my time, my sentence, 24/7. Life is my prison, anger is my warden...

Gajah Makan: Green Tea McFlurry @ McDonalds...

As the new movie by Dreamworks premieres, Kung Fu Panda, McDonalds have came up with some special items for the menu. One of those specials happens to be the Green Tea McFlurry. Now, as a green tea lover, I just had to try this special ice-cream. However, it being slapped with a $2.50 price tag, it was kind of a turn off for me at first. Yet, my curiousity still led me to my first ever taste of this new concoction. Having tried the Milo McFlurry, I wasn't really expecting much and once again I was right. I mean, for those who have tried drinking green tea would have know that green tea have a distinct aftertaste and for some it is an added bonus because that aftertaste actually get rid of worse aftertaste. However, in the case of this McFlurry, that aftertaste, to me, is quite bitter. Its not that the green tea powder they use is lousy (or maybe it is) but its because the McFlurry was not stirred properly and I end up eating chunks of the green tea powder. As for the Milo McFlurry, eating the milo powder was like drinking a Milo Dinosaur that is now commonly found at almost any coffeeshop, but to eat the green tea powder. Wow, horri-gible!!

Look at the powder at sides of the cup...

Anyway, I still to carry on eating in some bleak hope that it gets better and it actually did. After I kept stirring and stirring and stirring. I kept stirring til the McFlurry don't look like a McFlurry anymore, it look like a green paste, but it tasted good. Well, there was still the bitter aftertaste but it was not as profound as in the begining. So, I finally realise, that McDonalds should have just made a Green Tea Milkshake rather than a McFlurry. It would taste better as the powder would have been properly mixed and I think it should be worth the price tag.

Milkshake in the making...
