Last session

Today is the last session with my counselor.
Although he is one still under internship and required compulsory hours to quantify himself, i still find he is someone very good to talk to.

Bonding is of course very important.
I think the key point that bring my session to success is because i am willing to trust.
I don't keep secret, uhm.. let me rephrase that, i don't filtered as much information to him compared to other people that in the same category with him - stranger.

Well,
i did feel myself reluctant to end this last session.
it is that kind of feeling i can't have it enough.
very rarely you found someone who don't spoke from their point of view first and listened.
although it is clear that he was there for credit hour, but it might his genuine intention to help people in that way.
maybe he think that, many people are not being heard.
at least, i do think in that way.

not in the mood of blogging. see ya.

GoogleTranslate

Amazed by the GoogleTranslate.
Of course I know it is not something new and I even tried it previously,
but still I get excited each time I saw someone using it to translate.

In a click, in the split of a second, the whole page change from Chinese characters to English words,
how cool it is!
Credit should give to Streamyx 1Mbps package too,
I know well that my house couldn't do it as well as this one since I'm using only 0.384Mbps.

Anyhow, all above wasn't my first intention to post this post.
I have this question in thought suddenly,
whether it helps humankind or it makes worst?

of course in term of time and effort, it do goods more than bads.
As you don't need a personal translator or translate it yourself word by word using dictionary -save times and money.
But when it comes to learning, it don't do well at all.
Our world is really getting enough of all kind of instant already - instant noodles, instant 3-in drinks, and etc.
Fast pace is already one of our lifestyle that I really don't wish to be follow.
As you might guess, I have to.

oops, it was about learning!
yeah, definitely we don't learn much or should I say we don't learn at all
when translation turns out to be in this way.
I wonder anyone will actually translate it into English and back to Chinese
to check which Chinese character represents specific English word.
you would have just click "translate" and laugh at it if it turns out weird and kind of nonsense as English and Chinese grammatical rules are kind of like women and men - it's different!

Maybe that is the lifestyle future will be.
That we no longer have to strengthen our foreign language, instead replace by instant translation.
Life will be easy, on the net.
But it definitely not in face-to-face.
Only if someone invent instant translator which could change what you say to the language you desire.
In which I believe it will be out in the near future.
Because you and I know, human like to go the easy way.

A night buying eyeglasses

Not for me, but for my mum who wanted to get a customized eyeglasses for her presbyopia.
That wasn't the initial idea though, she was just simply wanted another standard presbyopia eyeglasses with its both lens shared the equal power.

advised by the salesperson, she(my mum) or we changed our mind to go for a customized one.
the reason is simple, a custom made eyeglasses reduce the dizziness that often caused by a standard one due to the fact that people have different power for their both eyes.
As we are rushing for other errands, we stay no any longer.
However, we promised her that we will come back at night and we somehow confirmed verbally that we going to buy that particular frame which cost RM159.

Here are the pricing for others.
Standard (both side have equal power) - RM 60
Custom made (w/o spring) - RM 129
Custom made (w spring) - RM 159

However, we end up not going because I have other thing to do.

It was another night, this time not only me and her, but accompanied by Cheryl and my 2nd sister, drove nearby to seek for other shops to compare the price.

It is then I realized that there are so much eyeglasses shops around my housing area.
In a row, there are already 2 to 3 shops lining up alternately welcomed us.
We choose the nearest to be our first station.
Not remembering the name of that shop, but the experience over there certainly significant enough to have a room in my memory.

Here is how it goes,
right before we stepped in, we saw no one in the shop,
yes! no one.
Funny is that, we still went in after all.
Amazingly, there is no alarm signaling the door is open or someone went in
and the door is unlocked!

It is then a guy came out from one of two rooms (quite a while only he realized someone came in)
, looking cues from us to see what we wanted.
We told and he asked us to wait as he is helping another customer checking eyesight.
we sat down and looked around.
we discovered something even out of our expectation.
all the slots that use to display the spectacles remain unlocked!

OMGness,
i swear i never saw someone that so not cautious towards his environment.
i can just simply grab the spectacles and run away!
because neither there is any CCTV!

we literally tried out most of the spectacles over there, sun glasses collection especially.
he is really lucky to meet us for not stealing anything from his shop.
we even worry for him when we were inside the room with him,
by constantly peeping outside to checked whether there is any stranger coming in.

the funny thing is that,
he aint any muscular kind of guy.
i even doubt that he is able to fight if a girl happens to come and robe him.

we told him all the dangerous things that could have been happen,
and what he can do to prevent.
the only "security" that he has is to see the reflection from the mirror of the door of the room to check if anyone come in.

i salute his bravery.
i got no words to describe his naive thinking and pure good hearted towards human kinds.
god always take care those who silly,
i guess that is why he still comfortably sitting inside.
or simply, there is god in his heart, it is then he see anyone as god.
