Christmas Present Of Love

Mariah Carey
“All I Want For Christmas is You”

I don't want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
I don't care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true...
All I want for Christmas is
You... yeah yeah

I don't want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
(and I) Don't care about presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I don't need to hang my stocking
There upon the fireplace
Santa Claus won't make me happy
With a toy on Christmas day
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you...
You baby

Oh I won't ask for much this Christmas
I won't even wish for snow
(and I) I'm just gonna keep on waiting
Underneath the mistletoe
I won't make a list and send it
To the North Pole for Saint Nick
I won't even stay awake to
Hear those magic reindeer click
'Cause I just want you here tonight
Holding on to me so tight
What more can I do
Baby all I want for Christmas is you
You baby

All the lights are shining
So brightly everywhere (so brightly yeah)
And the sound of children's
Laughter fills the air
And everyone is singing (oh yeah)
I hear those sleigh bells ringing
Santa won't you bring me the one I really need -
won't you please bring my baby to me...

Oh I don't want a lot for Christmas
This is all I'm asking for
I just want to see my baby
Standing right outside my door
Oh I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
Baby all I want for Christmas is
You (You) baby (yeah) (yeah) (yeah)

All I want for Christmas is you baby... (repeat)

This beautiful Xmas song had becomes once popular back in the 90’s by a beautiful RnB diva Mariah Carey. Merry Christmas everyone!

Peaceful Melody For Happy Nation

Ace Of Base
“Happy Nation”

Laudate omnes gentes laudate
Magnificat in secula
Et anima mea laudate
Magnificat in secula

Chorus
Happy nation living in a happy nation
Where the people understand
And dream of the perfect man
A situation leading to sweet salvation
For the people for the good
For mankind brotherhood

We’re traveling in time

Ideas by man are only that will last
And over time we’ve learned from the past
That no man’s fit to rule the world alone
A man will die but not his ideas

Chorus

We’re traveling in time
Traveling in time

Chorus

Tell them we’ve gone too far
Tell them we’ve gone too far
Happy nation come through
And I will dance with you

Chorus

Happy nation… (repeat until fade)

I’m always being a die hard fan of Ace Of Base. From the first time they ever appears on TV or even I can hear their song had been played on the air, I knew I’m going to fall in love with each of their song. 90’s was fruity time where the light, funky and multiculture beat had been spice up in every single song. It doesn’t matter if it’s was Jamaican, Indian, Japanese, Chinese, English, Latino, etc., well, all I can say that I never regret to buy those at the first place. Ace Of Base was one of them. These three siblings and a friend from Gothenburg, Sweden were once making a deep impact in US and also being in World Guinness Book Of Record. Unfortunately, after making a success with their first and second album around the 90’s, their album had suddenly become flop at the mid 90’s. I guess nobody to reggae anymore but I did because the classic becomes more precious in me. It is just suitable for this blog anyway. So, enjoy the rest of it and don’t forget stay tune for more in the upcoming episode of MSOD.

Borderless World

The year was 1992 and I was primary 6 in the elementary school. As I’ve told in the previous episodes of MSOD during my heyday in 1992, there are a lot of memories that I can’t forget. Sure I have sweetest memories that I can laugh about and some of it is just the revenge that it’s never end but in some matter of reason it is just unacceptable. That because I always wanted to be more different. Just like breaking the ordinary to something extraordinary. There’s always a price to it and I never surprised over the consequences. As a result, I always become the hate celebrity in the school for having this different taste. Perhaps, that’s one the minor reason I was abandoned by my own friends that had a same race as mine but that’s really not an issue because mostly, people abandoned because I’m fat and smart. For all these years, I realized that I am more to the peacemaker and I caught myself smiling alone when I think about it. Honestly, I find it hard when I always against whatever my friend’s plan that really brought into a real disaster. The worst thing that ever happens in our class and even our school when some of my classmates that thought they’re smart enough to bring the forbidden food to the school. No, it’s not an alcoholic beverage but non-halal food to Moslem.

When they told they will bring it to the school, I was thinking about Sulastrie and Dahliawaty a lot. What about them? I’ve started to defend my two best friends and as usual they told me to stay away from their business and mind my own. This is disrespectful, I thought! In their religion, a food that had connected to pork meat is isn’t halal. However, thought that Sulastrie and Dahliawaty is unlike the other Moslem pupils in the school meaning they’re neither arrogant nor extremist person, somehow, when it comes to something very sensitive matter, it’s really hurt them a lot. They never told me so but I know. Maybe, my other classmates just want to get revenge over some Moslem pupils that disrespectful over us but they take revenge over the wrong person. That’s why I disagree about the idea at the first place. For whatever thing that they’ve done, the last thing that ever crosses my mind is to use the sensitive matter. Actually, the fire had started from the other classes. I’m very not sure what’s going on but usually the other Moslem pupils had started it out. They always questioning our religion and most of the times, they told us something very sensitive that makes us always wanted to smack their head and throw their body to the river, which is very near to our school.

Both of my good Moslem friends shares the same thought as mine as they both doesn’t really like the way that they do because according to them, it’s picturized Islam as an extremist religion. I’ve tried my best to prevent them to bring it to the school but what can I do. You ask me to report it to the teacher? Even my both friends had doesn’t let me to do it. They told me that enough is enough because they don’t want me to involve in trouble anymore. As they’ve made the decision together, they brought it on the next day. I’ve never seen such a disrespectful event in my life. Poor my both friends and thought, they might keep it low, I feel irritated as well. I just hope that Sulastrie and Dahliawaty never afraid to tell the truth to the teacher. About three days later, finally, what I hope for was paid off. Puan Aishah, our class teacher had came from the staffroom was walking to our class that used to be a former clinic of Tatau district. As soon as she gets there, I can see the tears rolls in her eyes. Of course she was crying but I didn’t know what could happen to her. Suddenly, she’s yelling at some of us as she demands to know who brought the forbidden food to the school. None of us could speak and the only thing that I could hear was a sound of birds outside of our class.

Few minutes later, she told us that it was very sensitive matter and of course she knows that the majority of her class was non-Moslem but what she hopes for that she want some respect from us. Suddenly, one of my classmates started to cry and of course that person was connected to all the things that happen in our class. Puan Aishah did not beat them with rattan stick as usual but one thing for sure, she was broken hearted. After that, she just went away. Back home to the staffroom. As the class has nobody taken care of, all of us scramble but we didn’t make any noise as usual. This is the first time I’ve ever encountered such a thing. It feels like grieving someone’s death. I came and sit next to my both very best friends and silently, I’ve told them, both of them done the job that they should do. However, both of them deny about it. Three days later, I’ve heard the rumor that the primary 5 pupils had report the same incident in their classes. Sometimes, big mouth is really worth it but tell you what 99% of it was useless. From that moment they never did it again. Although, I never manage to help my both friends out but at least, I try my best to defend for them. Not because I betrayed in the name of race, custom and religion but I’m doing it for the sake of my best friends.

My friendship has no boundaries. I take the good thing inside and throw away the bad thing out of my life. It doesn’t really matter who I am defending because I valued my friendship a lot but once that person betrayed me, I never ever turning my head back to them. I’m never ever uses this as a weapon to attack my other friends because it’s not only I’m hurting them but their entire race as well. The same incident had happen when I was gone to the secondary school but that is different story. I’m glad to have them as my real best friends because they’re valued my friendship better. I feel more alive than ever.

Celebrate The Humanity

Almost a year ago, the world had shocked by the terrifying tidal waves that crash some parts of Asia and Africa. Many lives were lost and not mentioning the properties is swept away to the deep blue sea. As a responsible and caring citizen in the name of humanity, most of the people around the world were get together to help to those in needs. Few months later, the terrible earthquake had been struck two countries in south Asia. Once again, everybody gets together and helping those who’s helpless. Unfortunately, this kindness sometimes had been misinterpreted and some other times, it’s not sincere enough. Perhaps, this is life. Most of the times, especially the world right now, although the kindness is meant to be in the name of sincerity, however, those who have an evil agenda had becomes a wall of betrayal. To those who believing that the kindness of life is existing, nothing can change that but they’re more cautious.

In my own experience, I’m still believe, there’s still a kindness existed. I don’t need a reason for that because I know life is created in balance. There’s always yin and yang. It means there are a pros and cons in your life. I can see everything is divided into half. Human is divided into half. Well, just take a look at the mirror and try to see the left and right of your physical body. It doesn’t really matter whether you’re disable person and enable person, there’s still a half of you that makes you existed. You’ll become more appreciated when you saw it, feel it and hear it. God is genius but why are human like us still questioning things like that. The thing that I’m most does not understand is, why did human always creating a border among them? This question will be never answered if everybody refused to believe and understand the meaning of universal.

On the next episode of MSOD, I would like to bring you my painful experience on differences of religion and custom that still bruised in my heart. I have no intended to hurt anyone else in this story but all I ever wanted is to share what I have in mind and what I’ve been gone through. It once becomes a controversy but for the sake of friends and humanity, we still stand together and never let anyone betrayed our trust to each other. Like I said the first place, kindness is still existed. This story is tribute to all people for who you are what you are. It’s not only about respect; it’s all about friendship of a lifetime that I don’t want to lose any of my friends especially they’re with a different race, custom and religion. Although, sometimes, I always being an opposite or the best words to describe it, always against the nature, I always believe that human is all equal.

Therefore, it can be a lesson. Of course it sounds ugly but I believe, there’s always the next person in the blog experience more painful stories than mine. That’s why I’m grateful. You’ll find out why. So stay tune for the next episode of MSOD.
