～放下 ～ 自在 ～

“唏哩哩。。。”

肆无忌惮地小雨滴打在无辜的小叶上，

无邪的小叶片仅轻松晃了一晃，

不见一丝仇恨，

不见染沾一滴祸水，

悠哉地挺身而立。

任凭满腹牢骚的大雨倾盆，

尽管末日般地暴雨狂风，

叶片依然不失其青翠的色泽，

更练就了一身柔韧的曲线！

心有余悸。。。

前两天一个异常炎热的下午， 我与友人从位于大学内偏远的学校，驶着汽车奔往图书馆的食堂用餐。途中，手机突然响起，忙着使方向盘及排挡的我依然习惯性地从裤头里掏出了手机，毫不留意手机屏幕所显示的来电号码，便把它给接听了。

“快点来救我啊。。！”甫接过电话，便听到这微弱的求救声。原以为这只不过是朋友的恶作剧，我亦无趣地回上了一句:“喂，你要一起吃饭吗？”不一会儿，手机传出：“快点来救我。。快点来救我啊。。还不救我的话，我会被打的啊啊啊。。”乍听之下，求救声不仅加剧，一阵阵凄惨的嚎哭声更是不绝于耳际。我真的愣了。原本在小山坡的窄路上往前奔驰的车子，因失去了我的专注力而缓缓地往后退去而不自知。所幸友人见状后，立刻使劲地把手提刹车器拉了一把，才把车子停驻在原地。

说真的，一阵阵的“鬼哭神嚎”直教我毛骨悚然。此时，失措的我了解持续的慌乱并于事无补，倒不如正定些，向这位“求助者”确定身份。“你是谁？你到底是谁？”我大声质问道。然而，不晓得是因为被严重迫害而惊慌，抑或是听不清楚我的质问声，对方并没有正面地回应我的问题，反而不间断地向我求助。由于仍未确认来电者的身份，我一次又一次地提高声量，重复同样的问题。

僵持了大约三分钟后，上气不接下气的“求助者”更可怜兮兮地道出：“。。快点来救我啊。。我是你的儿子。。你的孩子呀！！” 呵，这下破绽全露（嘿，我年纪还輕着呢，哪来这么一位装可怜的的儿子呀），我心里一凉，毫不犹豫地把手机关上，结束了这一通令人动魄惊心的“求救电话”。

与数位好友分享事情的经过后，大家无不感叹诈骗集团的手法真是层出不穷。如果各位读者有注意的话，其实那三分钟重复的求救过程是诈骗集团能否把我掉上钩（可能因此而到处筹款，以赎回被绑票的人）的关键时刻。为什么呢？原因很简单，他们在幕后经已部署一些“专业人士”，透过接电者的声音，而进一步鉴定性别及年龄，以确保诈骗万无一失。

爱心叮咛：
正所谓：“害人之心不可有，防人之心不可无”，小弟希望这件事情足以让各位提高警惕，以智慧分辨事情的真伪，慎防诈骗集团害人不浅的圈套及手法。此外，小弟也呼吁各位时时警惕自己，千万不要因为想从别人身上索取某种利益，而做出打妄语、欺诈及诈骗等下下策，要清楚受害者会是很痛苦的哦！

INSULT OR INDUCEMENT ??????

After settling on the seat in an aircraft heading towards Kota Kinabalu (KK), a middle-aged man sitting next to me started talking to me…

“Hi, are you going to have a trip in KK?”, the man asked in a welcoming tone.

“Nop, I’m pursuing my course in University Malaysia Sabah.” I replied.

“?? Was there an university in Sabah??”, the man asked with a pair of dubious eyes looking at me despite being a Sabahan, who stayed in Ranau, Sabah.

“Yes, it had been established ten years and above from today.” I confidently answered.

The following dialog would be the culminating point, namely climax of this post:

“Oh I see. We (our company) never and will not hire any employees graduated from local universities.”, the man said with a hint of sarcasm along with slight chuckling.

Frankly speaking, these unexpected and devastating words really turned me into a disillusioning and upset mode. Soon after it, I was further informed that the man was one of the higher-ups in a well-known listed company engaging in construction sector. The man added he had been pursuing the degree of engineering in England in 1970s.

“Sir, then can you kindly set out the reasons of not employing local graduates???”, I bombarded.

“It’s simply because they lack of wider and broader field of vision.”, he responded patiently. Afterward, he took out a gameboy of latest edition and became steeped in it throughout the flight.

Upon the ‘ball’ was returned to me, my thinking impliedly encircled at a question that are we (local undergraduate) resorting to failure and high possibility of unemployment due to our low competitiveness in the end?

I pressingly craved for an explicit answer ……

Wonderful Mushroom Training Trip

Belated Happy Birthday, Albert Cheng^^

It had been two years that my birthday was celebrated without accompanion of my dearest family members since i studied "abroad" to Sabah...

It sounds quite sorrowful and sad...


However, thank god! There are some groups of nice friends here in UMS assisting me to get rid of the sorrow.

Again thankful to all my friends of remembering my birthday and celebrating it "crazily" together with me...

你不是真正的快乐

Yo~ Albert Cheng has returned with his energetic character and full sacks of stories are to be shared with YOU!!!

Quite a lots of friends started questioning me being disappeared from my blog in these 2 or 3 months. Here i need to send in my fullest gratitude as none of them was not showing their concern about me and my life. Of course, i was taken for task by some of them (who were somehow impatient and eager to my posts) over the delay of the post entitled <<你不是真正的快乐>>. Being busy dealing with piles of lab reports, assignments, quizzes and mid-term exams before, i tried my utmost of spending out some time on my blog but i failed to do so. Anyway, merely blaming on insufficient time in my life would be ironic as if i have the same standard as a president with strenuous tasks who would find 24hours per day to be really inadequate. Therefore, difficulties to access to internet did contribute to the delay too.

Upon returning, i insisted on publishing the owing post entitled <<你不是真正的快乐>>. Let's have a browse...

All these photos were taken during the several days before Chinese New Year when we (buddhist society in my university) paid a visit to a department treating children who are disabled, handicapped and critically ill in hospital Likas, Kota Kinabalu. As guided by seniors, our visit was aimed to show our love, concern and compassion towards the suffering children, who might have lost the will and confidence to live due to their congenitally incomplete life. All of us felt gratified when most of the children were joyful throughout the games sessions and magic shows performed by former president. We didn't expect much, nevertheless we just carried a hope that our visit was able of removing their unnoticeable sufferings by a short period. metta^^
