After having thought of what to write, i figured out that it's easier to write about myself. So this week's theme for me is 'Autobiography'. However, i am going to write about my family and dedicate this to them and perhaps rant about it as well. Nowadays, kids have all this complains about their family and hated their family for it. Ironically, it reminds me of myself back when i was younger. Even now, i would complain about them and find a way to avoid conversation with them. However, no matter how hard i try, i can't change the fact i love them.
I have a family of five that consist of my Dad, Mum, Brother, Sister and finally me. I am the youngest among us three children. A lot of people might be jealous of me because i am the youngest. What difference does it make if i am the youngest? I believe every parents are fair when it comes to treatment and care for their children, just different method.
I felt stupid when i thought back on how i always wanted to be in my friend's family, saying how great theirs are and comparing them to mine but not anymore. I have found enough reasons to stick with my family and whole lot more to love them. Hell, do i even need reasons?
I really want to know why you would even start to hate your family? Because they nag at you? Because they scold you for a reason not known to you? And you even thought of running away from home after you got money. I just got off a conversation with a friend of mine who's only twelve years old. She said she plan to leave home after she got enough money just because her family ask her to stop playing the computer. Yes, that was the exact same thinking i have back when i was around her age. Thinking my family just scold me for no reason and always hating on me. Thinking they love my brother and sister more than me.
There's not much to teach you how to love your family. It's up to oneself to do that. I have learned to love them and know the meaning behind their words. Seriously, their nagging and scolding are for our own good. Do you think they wanted to scold you? There's a saying in Chinese that goes,''Parents eat more salt than you eating rice''. It actually means that they have more experience than we do and that we should listen to their advise. If you're still having a hard time digesting my words, try putting yourselves in their shoes. What would you do when you have children? These are the words that came from my parents. Try asking anyone older than you whether they love their family and listen to their answer.
Don't blame them for being overprotective but blame them for loving you too much - Carl Cheong
This is a quote that i live by and i hope it helps you too. Especially when it is Mother's Day today, go hug your mum and your family, tell them how much you love them. HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to all mothers out there but sorry, i will have to put my Mum first.

No Specific Topic 1.0 - Leo Carl Cheong
Yes, I am from Ipoh and i don't have 'Point Blanc - Ipoh Mali' as my ringtone or alarm. For your information, Ipoh is not a 'Kampung' or rural area. It's one of Malaysia's largest city. I live in Pasir Puteh area of Ipoh and i studied in S.M.K Anderson Ipoh. Back in my high school, I am not a studious person and i spent more time on my co-curricular than my academic activities. How so? I was the President of Leo Club of Anderson Ipoh, Vice-President of Red Crescent Society and school player for Basketball. Pretty cool, isn't it?
I remember joining my school's Leo Club back when i was in form three. I was initially interested in joining Interact Club but instead, was pulled into Leo Club by my friends and seniors. I have a bad impression on Leo Club as most of my friends are in it to meet girls. It is nothing more than a social club to me at first. It was a nuisance as i have to memorize the Leo Pledge, Lion Spirit song and whatsoever. Then, i started going for some of its activities like functions from another Leo Club of another school. As i start to dig up more information about Leo Club, i have this growing interest in me. Leo Club is something like a junior version of Lions Club and Lions Club is the most active organization in the world. Fascinated, i start to volunteer and taking up posts in it's events. I still remember i was the Master of Ceremony and the Caterer for my first project, a Game Function. I was so nervous up on stage that i was shaking the whole time and stuttering words even if i was just reading from a script at hand.
I start to realize Leo Club isn't all about the fun, but instead helping to serve the community. Event management and communication skills are some of the main abilities I have enhanced during my time in Leo Club. Trust me, Leo Club isn't just your normal school clubs. It really trains people to be good leaders and being in Leo Club sometimes feels like being in politics. Competing against other Leo Clubs in the world to gain awards and recognition in Leo Forum and in the same time, serve community. Besides, dramas do happen in the Board of Directors and in the world of Leo Club.
Speaking of Leo Forum, it is an annual major three-days-two-nights event where Leos in one District, in my case District 308 (Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei), gathers to be given recognition and awards for its hard work throughout the fiscal year. It also acts as a medium for Leos around the world to get to know each other and build friendships. The awards are in a hierarchy order ranking from Merit to Outstanding and finally Top. However, in order to be qualified to compete for Top awards, one must first achieve Outstanding awards first. There can be many Merit and Outstanding awards winners but there can be only one Top award winner. There are also many prestigious awards. This inspires many Leos to work hard. It also marks the end of one fiscal year.
I eventually worked my way up and gotten the President post for fiscal year 2009/2010. I have travelled to many places to attend other clubs' projects and even did some joint projects with them for instance, KL, Penang, Melaka, Sabah, Sarawak, etc. As Leo Club of Anderson is the first Leo Club ever formed in District 308, it is up to me to continue its legacy (My seniors got the Top Club award back in fiscal year 2009/2009). It was not easy to live up to everyone's expectations as i had some bad experiences with my board of directors. As i have said, dramas do happen. All of my board of directors disliked me and they boycotted me. I spent the first six months of my fiscal year bonding with them and we eventually got back together. We worked our hearts out for the next six months and organized some major events which brought our club back to life. We also attended the annual Leo Camp and Leolympic, which we got gold in basketball and bowling and silver in futsal but lost to Leo Club of Sam Tet for the Grand Trophy. Besides, it is here where i met a girl who i have feelings for but never get the chance to be with.
After a great year, it has come to our long-awaited Leo Forum. Leo Forum that year was held in Tower Regency Hotel, Ipoh with approximately 1200 Lions and Leos deligates. On the second night, an Oscar-themed Grand Dinner was held and that's where the awards are presented. While we failed to defend our most prestigious award, Top Club award, I was awarded Top President Award and International Director Excellent Leo Youth Service Award. We also gotten ourselves THREE more Top Awards which is :-
- Top Most Innovative and Creative Project Award for our 'Charity Home Hopping' project (A amazing race-ish project that instead of going to locations, teams go to orphanage, old folks home and any other charitable homes. They have to complete tasks after tasks while racing to reach the Pit Stop.)
- Top Fundraising Project Award for our ''117 Fallen Stars'' project (A fundraising project to raise fund for National Kidney Foundation in the names of the Leos who passed away in a dragon boat race. We raised a total of RM10,000.)
- Top Joint Project for Leolympic (A sport competition organized by a total of 13 clubs in our Region. It consists of basketball, badminton, futsal, bowling and more.)
We got a total of 27 awards altogether in that night. That was one of my greatest moment ever in my life. We were given a special certificate by our school for our achievements. After that, i went on to be chosen to be a nominee for Leo of the Year Award, representing District 308 (Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei) to compete with other countries. Unfortunately, i didn't make it but i was happy enough to have achieve so much. Now, i have passed down my job to my juniors and went on to join an Omega Leo Club (A 18+ years old Leo Club). I want to thank three persons in particular which is Leo Jeremy Lam (my Vice-President), Leo Daviz Foo (my Treasurer) and District Chairperson Lion Alan Thoo for backing me up and working hard with me. There are many more i would like to thank. You know who you are. This is me being a Leo. So, if you are interested in joining a Leo Club, please do so as it is a life-changing experience. Look who i am now. You can do the same. If you have any problems or questions about Leo Club, you can refer to me.

Animal Rights 2.0
We have talked about all the cruelty happening to these poor and innocent animals, how their rights are violated and mistreated. But what's the use of complaining about it when we're not doing anything to help reduce these madness? I know it is all because we are too lazy to care of all these so called unnecessary problems and we have no authority to control them. Besides that, i see the governments are working their hearts out to improve everything except an alternative way to deal with the killing of animals.
Yes, killing of animals are for the sake of making food and other materials but deep down i believe it doesn't just ends there. First there's hunting of wild animals for the sake of fun. Then, they cut those animals' heads off and hung them up on the walls as trophies. What's so great about these ''trophies''? What is there to prove when you killed those innocent animals? Does that prove you're better than them? It just makes you a merciless killer, that's all.
Hunting is not a sport. In a sport, both sides should know they're in the game. ~Paul Rodriguez(Source :http://www.quotegarden.com/a-rights.html)
I ask people why they have deer heads on their walls. They always say because it's such a beautiful animal. There you go. I think my mother is attractive, but I have photographs of her. ~Ellen DeGeneres
(Source :http://www.quotegarden.com/a-rights.html)
And then, there's the infamous underground dog fights. Betting on two dogs' life when they are fighting each other to death. How wonderful it sounds. Get a life and leave those dogs alone. There are plenty of more meaningful things to do besides making ones life miserable enough just to entertain yourselves. Don't you remember that quote, ''Dogs are man's best friends."?
Writing a blog on this specific theme gives me a whole new perspective on all those organizations that strive to enforce animal rights and ensuring their safety. Their works are the real 'trophies' that are worthy of our respect and being proud of. If the government would focus on them more, these cruelty can be reduced, even a slight bit would be for the best.
This week's theme is the hardest one of all as I am not quite the animal lover myself but it is also the most meaningful one of all as it made me realize how important animals is to our lives. So i urge all readers to read up on Animal Rights and help to preserve them as i believe there's happiness awaiting us at the end of day for hose who have done good deeds. I shall end this with another quote i find really heart moving and a picure.
Considerate la vostra semenza:
Fatti non foste a viver come bruti,
Ma per segue virtute e conoscenza.
("You were not made to live as brutes, but to follow virtue and knowledge.") — Dante, cited by Scruton.

Animal Rights 1.0
What are the differences between animals and humans? They are the same as us, humans. They just have different sizes, shapes, abilities, etc. But, the most important of all is, they have feelings too. We both live together on Earth as its inhabitants. However, animals tend to be mistreated and claimed by us to be a lesser being. What reasons do we have to look down on the animals?
Each day, even as you're reading this, animals are being hunted down, killed cruelly and even worse, used for wrong reasons. Honestly, I don't really know about all this until i've been told to write a blog about Animal Rights for my assignment. In fact, i could care less about what is happening to these poor animals and still live happily. That was before i started to research on this topic more in the Internet and even asked my friends about it. As i continue on, it makes me sick to even finish watching a video about 'Slaughter House' and animals being used for several reasons. Inside of me, grows this feeling of hatred towards all these people who hurt animals for their own sake. But what separates me from them? What makes me so different from them that i can hate them?
As i think further down, I am no different from those cold-hearted animal slayers. What efforts have i put in to help save these poor and innocent animals? I just watched all these clips and news about animal-killing and the next thing i know, i'm doing something else, forgetting about them already. Thanks to this assignment, i can at least do something to help these precious lifes, even a little would do.
Lets stop for a breather and meanwhile learn more about our topic today. A brief explanation of 'Animal Rights' is the belief that animals have an intrinsic value separate from any value they have to humans, and are worthy of moral consideration. They have a right to be free of oppression, confinement, use and abuse by humans. (Source : http://animalrights.about.com/od/animalrights101/a/BasicTenets.htm)
Do you think animals are just objects and our tools to survive? Do you think killing animals for our own benefits are normal? Do you feel like reading this is pointless? If you do, congratulations. You just officially went into my to-hate list.
Animal slaughtering is getting out of hand nowadays. Everyday, thousands of them are slaughtered, young or old, to fill our stomachs and needs. Some are slaughtered for fun. Some are even killed and used as offerings or to fulfill a ritual. What are they? A life brought up just to be killed? Isn't that sad? Try putting yourselves in their shoes and feel their pain and suffering. Imagine your throat is sliced open and left there bleeding to death. Imagine a steel bolt shot into your brain. Imagine you're milked until you are over-exhausted and die. Imagine you are clubbed to death. All that for all the wrong reasons and we still can live without guilt. How selfish we are. Go http://www.google.com/ now and search for 'Animal Slaughter' in the 'Images' section. Open your cold and hypocritical eyes and take a look. I can't even bring myself to do that, let alone see those pictures.
We always complain about people violating our rights. What about the animal's rights? Aren't you violating their rights? They have the rights to be treated equally and deserve our respects.
Would you rather see the ones above or the ones below?
More coming up next ! Stay tuned.

Best Place/s To Go 2.0
Continuing my post about best place/s to go, I have more to tell you readers out there. It gets me every time when i read those brochures or travel magazines, bragging about how awesome the place is and what they offer. All the good foods and places of interest. Is it just me or you guys have the same feeling?
After reading all those and listening to friend's vacation experiences, I have decided the next Best Place/s to go. There are no place better than it and not even close. It is none other than, HOME. ''Ewww! Come on, are you kidding me?'', i believe, would be what most of you people would say. But, i bet there are people who felt the same as i did.
It might start off as an obligation to go home everyday after you're done with your day. After a while, you might even get sick of going home and want to leave eventually. Well that's me and look what i'm missing the most now, MY HOME. I've only been in KL for 3 weeks and i'm getting homesick. Yes, you might meet new friends and love the life you're currently having but i believe Home would be what you want at the end of the day.
What's with Home that i would name it 'Best Place/s To Go'? Don't you miss your parents? Don't you miss your comfortable and lovely bed that you've been sleeping on it for almost 17 years? Don't you miss all the lovely moments you spent with your family and childhood/school friends? I certainly do. There's just this thing that bonds you with home that i can't describe but i know you have it too. No matter how much you hate it, you just want to go back there. Isn't it ironic?
When i walk in my house, it's not just family, furniture or decorations that i see. I see happiness, sadness, hope, comfort, safety, life and most importantly, i see ME. It has this sentimental value to me and i wouldn't want to lose it. Besides that, it houses your family, to me, would be my most valuable ''possession'' i' have. Don't you think that no matter what problems you have, your home has all the''tools'' and ''methods'' to help solve them? I am prone to losing my belongings so i always tend to lose my things. There was this time where i lost my bag, consisting of my ang-pao money, my new clothes and my wallet. There's no way i could find those back or buy those back. When i got home and told my family about it, i got a pretty good scolding from them. But the next thing i know, i got a new bag, clothes, wallet and some pocket money the next day. Do you think you can solve difficulties without going home and telling your family about them? I wouldn't say no entirely, but most probably no.
I wouldn't know about you, but for me, i recommend Home as the Best Place/s to go. Let me end this with a question and a song.
''Tsunami hitting America (just saying) and fire burning down your home. Which would you feel worse for?''
No offence to anyone related. It's just a metaphor. I apologize to anyone who's offended for the question mentioned above.

Best Place/s To Go 1.0
Have you ever thought of going somewhere else? Have you ever thought of traveling to God-knows-where? Have you had a place you wanted to go so badly? Well, i have. In fact, i have lots of places i want to visit or go at least once no matter what. I believe everyone has thought about that too. However. the question remains, ''What is my best place/s to go?''.
For me, I'm going to talk about the ONE place i have stepped foot outside Malaysia, Bali. Pretty sad, isn't it? Nonetheless, it is quite a blessing for me to have this golden opportunity so i shouldn't complain any longer. Before i start off with the 'main dish', let's have a brief introduction for Bali as the starter, shall we?
Bali is an Indonesian island situated in the westernmost end of the Lesser Sunda Islands, lying between Java to the west and Lombok to the east. It is one of the country's 33 provinces with the provincial capital at Denpasar towards the south of the island. It houses a population of 3,891,000 in 2010, home to most of Indonesia's small Hindu minority.
Bali is definitely a place if you want to bask in the radiance of luxury and relaxation. I went there on a vacation with my company mates last December. Took a two hours and a half to reach there by plane and excitement kicks in. It shocks me more with the fact that i easily became a millionaire after i exchanged my Ringgit Malaysia to Rupiah. Imagine RM1 here is equivalent to 2800 Rupiah there. The resorts there are an absolute beauty. It makes you feel like a prince/princess staying there as their services are top-notch.
This is a picture of us posing at the entrance of a temple that i have visited during the trip. It houses a lot of old buildings and statues of memorable events or persons. Before we get to enter the temple, we have to wear a type of ''sarung'' as it is a tradition. We also have a choice of donating any amount of money we desire. The money collected is used fully to improve the facilities and maintain the cleanliness of the place around. Despite the old age of the temple, it is still one of the most visited place by tourists each year and the inside look of the temple is absolutely outrageous.
The most memorable thing in Bali for me is the food. Bali is well known for its seafood and rice plantation as to what i have been informed of. I always look forward to each day's meal as they never fail to make my day. There was once where we went to a beach-side Restaurant. The food there was awesome and they have performances such as traditional dance and some local bands. The candlelight-ed dinner accompanied with the wonderful beach view made a perfect atmosphere for a wonderful dinner.
For those of you who wish to buy cheap but nice stuffs, Ubud in Bali is definitely a must-go destination for you. There are uncountable markets in Ubud which sells almost anything you can buy and they are cheap. How do i know that they are cheaper than other places? I bought a necklace back in town for 40,000 rupiahs and there is an exact same necklace in Ubud Market which costs only for 10,000 rupiahs. However, you have to negotiate with the seller for the cheap price. An advise i was given before i went to Ubud was, ''Only agree to 20% of the actual price the seller set for you.'' and it helps a great deal. If the seller ask for 10,000 rupiahs, negotiate for 2,000 rupiahs and if they don't agree to it, leave. Don't worry because they will eventually ask you back and offer you the price you asked for. Funny, isn't it?
Well that concludes my trip to Bali. It was quite long ago and i forgotten most of the name of the places so i'm just briefly explaining what we did there. In a nutshell, Bali is definitely a place you should visit if you have the chance. Remember to buy me some souvenirs though.
That's it. BYE.

College Life 2.0
The story continues with me going for my first class which is Creative Comm and Portfolio Development, originally by Dr. Benedict who was replaced by Miss Zee due to some unforeseen circumstances. There, i met the same guy i saw during the first day of Orientation. I managed to have a short talk with him before class starts and then it is time to study. I didn't make much of a progress that day but it didn't stop me from having my hopes up for the next day though.
The next day, my prayer was heeded and i actually made a couple of new friends. What's more interesting is that they invited me to join them for lunch after class eventhough we just met. They are extremely friendly and funny. I was very happy because I know I won't be lonely in class no more, have a friend to chat with, and have someone to back me up. It didn't end there as i got to know more friends from different courses, ranging from Mass Comm, Design, Business, Architecture, Culinary and more. Now, it became a habit to hang around with these bunch of people everyday. My bad feeling before this is fading and I felt better.
However, college life is not all about making friends. There's a fine line between fun and studies and i will definitely not cross it. It's been two weeks so far and classes was nice. The lecturers are wonderful and good at what they do. They have a good sense of humour that makes the learning atmosphere in class nice and easy especially Miss Zee. As i am learning something new, unlike those subjects in high school which i have no interest in, i focuses more on them and they are interesting.
Speaking of college life, i just joined Taylor's Dance Club and Music Club for my co-curriculum programme. It's been ages since i last danced but thanks to my friend, i have to dance once again. In fact, there's dance class tomorrow.
After two weeks here, I have began to cope with my studies and even my daily expenses well. I'm starting to love my college life and there's still two years more to go. Imagine all the fun and new things I'm going to have or learn. I gets so pumped up every time i think about it. As you're reading this, I'm so excited what is going to happen tomorrow. I am so looking forward to it.
What's going to happen next? I can't really answer you now but I have a good feeling about it. So that's about it. My college life is awesome.

The next day, my prayer was heeded and i actually made a couple of new friends. What's more interesting is that they invited me to join them for lunch after class eventhough we just met. They are extremely friendly and funny. I was very happy because I know I won't be lonely in class no more, have a friend to chat with, and have someone to back me up. It didn't end there as i got to know more friends from different courses, ranging from Mass Comm, Design, Business, Architecture, Culinary and more. Now, it became a habit to hang around with these bunch of people everyday. My bad feeling before this is fading and I felt better.
However, college life is not all about making friends. There's a fine line between fun and studies and i will definitely not cross it. It's been two weeks so far and classes was nice. The lecturers are wonderful and good at what they do. They have a good sense of humour that makes the learning atmosphere in class nice and easy especially Miss Zee. As i am learning something new, unlike those subjects in high school which i have no interest in, i focuses more on them and they are interesting.
Speaking of college life, i just joined Taylor's Dance Club and Music Club for my co-curriculum programme. It's been ages since i last danced but thanks to my friend, i have to dance once again. In fact, there's dance class tomorrow.
After two weeks here, I have began to cope with my studies and even my daily expenses well. I'm starting to love my college life and there's still two years more to go. Imagine all the fun and new things I'm going to have or learn. I gets so pumped up every time i think about it. As you're reading this, I'm so excited what is going to happen tomorrow. I am so looking forward to it.
