This Quote.

READ THAT QUOTE AGAIN & KEEP ON STUDYING. :)

WIN & LOSE

WINNING

LOSING

To WIN, is to receive the great result that you deserve after some hardcore practice/training/learning.
To LOSE, is to gain nothing but experience after everything you've done.

Few weeks ago, my friends went for a choral speaking competition (representing my school), and they lost to 3 schools. They got 3rd runner-up. But there isn't any honour/award for the 3rd runner-up.

And, I was like, "It's ok. Our school is still amazing." :)

But, THEY're like, "OMG THIS IS SO UNFAIR. WE'VE WASTED SO MUCH TIME TRAINING JUST TO GET THE CHAMPION. BUT THEY GAVE IT TO THAT STUPID SCHOOL. THEY'RE REALLY RACIST." BLAH BLAH BLAH EXCUSES.

*NO OFFENCE TO OTHER RACES, BUT THAT'S WHAT MY FRIENDS SAY

I was just thinking that, losing a racist competition is no big deal. Isn't it? There are so many competitions in this world. We can't stop for just ONE stupid competition. OK FINE. It's unfair. But, seriously? Crying for losing a competition?

Let me show you something:

What I want to say is that, winning something is GREAT. But, losing isn't that bad after all. Losing a competition can make us realize that there are so many more talented people out there who are much better than we are, and we should try harder next time.

We're not going to win EVERY SINGLE TIME. Well, if we are, then we're never going to learn any life lessons.

An Inspiring Runner.

"Claire Lomas, a bionic British woman finishes marathon after 16 days."

I heard this on the radio today. I asked my parents what does "bionic" mean. They answered me with 'having artificial body parts'. So, I guess I understood what it means.. A paralysed woman finished a marathon after 16 days of 'running' or maybe 'walking'. I wondered: HOW did she make it? So, I web searched her. And this is what I've got:

NAME: Claire Lomas

AGE: 32

PHYSICAL PROBLEM: Left paralysed from the chest down

MARATHON DISTANCE: 42.2KM

TIME TAKEN TO FINISH THE RACE: 16 days

Claire Lomas celebrating after the marathon.

She completed her 42.2 kilometre course in her bionic ReWalk suit. And when she has finished her marathon, hundreds of people lined the streets and members of Household Cavalry gave her a guard of honour on The Mall in central London.

Claire said something that's sooo inspiring that I have to quote it:

"I just took each day as it came and every step got me a step closer." - Claire Lomas

I'm just wondering, how did she have the patience & determination to finish the 42.2KM marathon. I think it's probably the hardest task for me, an un-bionic person. And, yeah, I think life is just the same as what Claire says.

And here's a video of Claire finishing the marathon, crying with his husband & her adorable little children:

Clair crying with joy.

Whenever we take a step, we get closer to our target. And that's how life works. If Claire can make it, why can't you? Just asking.

Nayati Moodliar.

HE is Nayati Moodliar:

Isn't he lovely? He's a 12-year-old mixed. Indian + Dutch. I've always adored mixed people. He has British citizenship. 1.5M tall. And... OK. That's enough. But seriously, he's ridiculously good-looking. (AND NO. I'm not a pedophile.)

You're reading this, but you're probably NOT a Malaysian. So, if you do not know who he is, here it is ---> he was kidnapped on 27th April @ Mont Kiara (a random place in Malaysia). Then, his father tweeted about him. And then BOOOOOM. Facebook was full of pictures of him. I was like, "MAN. Who's this? He's cute." Then I just forgot about him.

It somehow gets annoying when everyone's like, "PRAY FOR NAYATI!!" when there are also children out there who are getting abused and all kinds of sad stuff. So I thought he's just one of those lucky good-looking dude who accidentally owns Malaysians' heart & got famous within these few days. I ignored ALL those posts about helping to find him. But then, I saw this picture:

"Free Hugs, anyone?" 

And then I was like, "Aww. That's cute. Not many children nowadays will do this." This picture really inspires me a lot. I mean, I've watched a video like this before... 

"Just Keep Going, You Got Nothing To Lose"

I like how that picture of Nayati holding the sign actually relates to the video above. :) The video is about people in railway doesn't talk to each other. They don't even make eye contact with each other. And if you smile at the others, they'll give you 'that look'. It's just a piece of dead silence. And that's NOT what we should do. We should befriend with each other, because LOVE is the most powerful magic in the world. It can totally change a person's point of view. (PS: when you watch the video, be patient. It's really nice. Listen to what they say. And most of all, listen to the dude with his iPod Shuffle & headphones on. I like the way he talks about life.)

Back to NAYATI.

So, I tweeted something about Nayati too. Like #FindNayatiMoodliar. (also, my AWESOME friend, Pinni Yoong, she's probably reading this now, told me that she likes to pronounce 'Moodliar' as 'MOOD LIAR'. I was like HAHAHA. But if you wanna pronounce it accurately, it's 'MOOD LEE-AR'.) I don't think tweeting something can help a person. I didn't tweet much. I just pray for him sometimes, hoping that the kidnappers will not torture him for his good look. :)

And YESTERDAY evening, I went back from school, logged into my Facebook, and I saw this post:

"12-year-old kid, Nayati Moodliar is now safe in his parents arm again."

HALLELUJAH! :D I felt so happy and this is how I felt that time:

 FAITH IN HUMANITY: RESTORED!

And TODAY morning, Pinni came to my house. WE STALKED NAYATI. Haha. He's like a superstar now. We searched for him on Facebook. We saw his profile picture. We were so excited. We added him. We're full of hope. We're really happy. And then, something came out saying, "Sorry, this user already has too many friend requests." FFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUU. We're late.

FINE. We searched for his dad (@ShamMoodliar) on Twitter. I retweeted some of his tweets including:

"I went to Nayati's bedroom this morning and he was there."

"Nayati is choosing to walk home right now." (with a link of this picture):

And also, he retweeted a video from this guy (@GeertSam):

"@ShamMoodliar, not sure if you had this one or not. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nyUdRjSwL2s&feature=youtu.be Tears when watching it man. That he may be back soon!!"

Nayati's such a strong boy. I adore his personality. He made Malaysians understand what 'humanity' is. It's been a long time since we, Malaysians were so united at something. You've brought us together. Thank you Nayati. :)

Sham: "Nayati said to me, 'I WAS KIDNAPPED ON MY WAY TO SCHOOL, AND NOW I'M WALKING HOME FROM SCHOOL. THOSE KIDNAPPERS CAN'T BEAT ME.'

"Those kidnappers can't beat me." - Nayati Moodliar

My friends and I are planning to do the 'free hugs, anyone?' stuff someday. Let's see if people will give us that look. Or will they smile? We'll try out best.

If you're from America, thanks for reading & HAPPY FRIDAY! If you're from the other country, I'm happy that you've finished reading this and I hope this whole "Nayati Got Kidnapped" story inspired you-- doesn't matter if it's only a little, or A LOT. :) THANK YOU!

Marvel's The Avengers.

So, I went out with my friends for a movie, and we picked "Marvel's The Avengers". Guess what? We regret nothing. NOTHING, I TELL YOU. :)

It's probably going to be the best movie of 2012. Well, it's the best movie I've seen so far this year. Run time: 143 minutes. And almost every single part of the movie is amazing. The fighting. The suits of armor. The graphics. And did I mention the EPICNESS of HULK? He's really cool. But he's not my favorite though. My favorites are Captain America & Iron Man.

Captain America/Steve Rogers (starring Chris Evans):

He's my favorite. He doesn't have any superpowers. He only has his signature shield. But he can still fight well. OK. He's not the best fighter among ALL the Avengers. But what I like about him is that he's really calm when he thinks. And, he's a really good leader. I think, without him, the Avengers will not beat Loki. He's also the first ever superhero. He's my favorite, for sure.

Iron Man/Tony Stark (starring Robert Downey Jr.):

This dude deserves A LOT of respect, not because he's a billionaire, but for his braveness. He's the one who sent the bomb away from the Earth. He saved million's lives. And, damn, he's hilarious.

Hulk/Bruce Banner (starring Mark Ruffalo): 

He's pretty darn cool. His anger. And this line is nice:

Captain America: "Dr. Banner, it's the perfect time for you to get angry."
Hulk: "That's the secret, Captain. I'm always angry."

Thor (starring Chris Hemsworth):

The only thing that I like about him is his accent. That's it. Of course, he's also a very brave warrior.

Hawkeye/Clint Barton (starring Jeremy Renner):

Katniss Everdeen's the female version of Hawkeye. I say this because they're both good at arrow & bow. And I didn't say Hawkeye's the male version of Katniss because The Avengers comics came out far before The Hunger Games trilogy.


Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow (starring Scarlett Johansson):

She's the bad-ass that every guy will like. Haha. She's amazing.


And that's it-- Marvel's The Avengers. This movie deserves 5847297502350298502785024 awards. I'm not saying that it's the best movie ever, but I think that movie like this deserves to be watched by God. And it seriously deserves endless award, because they must've spent a lot of time just to design the outfits and graphics.

I'm feeling good. And I wanna buy a Captain America Tee. :) I hope someone will buy me ALL the Marvel comics for me as my birthday present. Seriously. I'll rate 9/10 for this movie. It's EPIC. The best 2012 movie so far. GO WATCH IT. ENJOY.......
