what does your name mean?

i had finished 'FREAKONOMICS' yesterday night, what an interesting book recommended by kaemin. the way they explain things about socieconomy is like reading a novel. so it's easy to follow, informative and of course interesting!




the subtitles are super interesting: "why do drug dealers still stay with their mother?" or "which one is more dangerous: gun or swimming pool?" and the book end with topic about names. names that are given by parents to their kids.

i asked my parents before why they gave me this name. and they said because the nicest colleague my mom ever had is called Peggy. {while my bro -Hansen- name is driven from Handsome. because when he was born he was a super handsome baby}

in our name somehow parents' carved out their hope on us. anyway, out of curiosity i asked my friend about his name. and the answer were simply hillarious ^^ hahahaha

Raccoonboy says:
hm... they named me a "river warrior"
Raccoonboy says:
thats kinda a lousy prospect for a name
Raccoonboy says:
like... my future job is a porr fisherman or something


{he was reffering to his chinese name which i don't use to call him to, so i asked bout his english name}

Raccoonboy says:
russell? XD
Raccoonboy says:
i named that part myself
Raccoonboy says:
russell is what i wanted to name my dog
Raccoonboy says:
but my dad told me he wanted to call him tyson so i ended up taking the name

hahaha {oh no, what will his name be if the dog were to take that name?} so, what does your name mean?

upset

i am so upset today, i dont know how to make my mood better nor my design better.

it feels like out of 10 choices i made 8 are -no-no for my boss.

i know for sure living my next 10-20 years as interior designer is a big no-no.

what i want then? i just want a simple and relax life.

God please open the roads to my dreams.

today's story

konbanwa~ today i am down with flu :( anyway it's sick season recently, and i happen to follow the trend :p

today i saw my friend put an outstanding nic name at his msn:

"i miss out so much time that i can spend with you. but i know for the rest of our lifetime we will be spending them together"

well~ that's nice :) and on the other side make me think, if there's a guy saying that to me today, will i be flying high with happiness and love-shaped balloons or... will i get a cold feet and freaked out?

ah~that must be depends on who said it at what situation and how serious it is.

btw, i just finished watching 'absolute boyfriend' it's a nice drama :) and i like the ending. recommended for every j-dorama lover (the actors are handsome!!)

^^

last friday i get sHOCk attack. i was so surprise, and couldn't belief what i saw that i had refreshed my page few times and still see the same thing.

it was so unexpected. {of course, that's why it's so shocking} unbelievable. {ermm, really hard to accept at 1st} i thought it's something that will happen only by notification. {which is suppose to make you less shocked} nothing big actually, just feel so shocked ^^;

anyway, there's this girl- whom everybody addressed as-nice and friendly girl. and she is one of my best friend's best friend. so sometimes i get to update news bout her.

i had this thought before, that we could be good friends too if given under different circumtances, rather than just a-hi-friend. {erm, bcoz somehow i think you can be good friend with somebody is because the similarity in characters and interest. so human we tend to group ourself with those that 'smells' or 'feels' similar to your preference} i think it will be great if i can get to be friend with her.

last fri i was reading a blog. This girl left few comments there, and because it was interesting so i add on some too. and because curious so i click on her profile and found her blog.

and i saw on her only link: Peggy's blog

sure the only things pop up to my mine: i wonder who is she. so i clicked it. oh. perhaps now we can be more than hi-friend :) well, that'll be nice.

Karma's proof

i had a fantastic chat with jackline. fantastic as in for the time span. i overnight at her place, and we talk almost non-stop from 9 night till....6 in the morning ^^

{i had never imagine i will do this. i still remember once my dear friend Indri told me that she stayed overnight at Winnie place and they chat till 5 in the morning. that time i was wondering what are in the world they can talk about until 5 in the morning! and it's not like they seldom meet each other you know.}

{these all was taken at 5am when we decided to sleep n off the light and then the conversation somehow didn't stop until the window brighter and brighter}

from all our conversation, the most memorable and most meaningful and powerful is this:

we were talking about karma, God's existance and guide, and similar stuffs. then she suddenly share with me about what happened before their high school prom night.

she is the only one who are taking care of the event (to my surprise) and go to deal with the people from the hotel management. in such a rush and short time preparation (5-6 days), the hotel manager told her that to include the band performing they need to pay extra because it's a last minute call. because she was the only one dealing with this, she is also the only one know how much is their budget. and that extra money was extra 2-3 million! and she said -yes- she agree to pay.

and of course she back to home keeping this quiet. and cracking her head for idea to get this extra money. and while she was walking down the street she saw a small kid begging for money. at 1st she was thinking want to give but feel lazy to take out her wallet. so she keep walking.

she told me, after walking for quite a far distant, she turned back.

she said she can heard a very clear sound telling her to give something to the kid. and she gave 5000 out, and all left in her wallet was just enough to get her back to home. and she thought 'how blur i am.' yah, coz normally you will just give 500 or 1000 for begger.

few days had passed and she still cant get idea how to cover the cost, and was ready to ask for more money from her fellow friends when she received a call from that hotel manager.

he told her that the band said they decided not to give extra charge. and now they have far than enough money to run the event, even much more leftover!

i was like "WOW, really praise the Lord!" and she said, "yah! i keep thinking of ideas and pray for God to show a solution but never imagine that the solution will be something like this!"

and suddenly i wonder, "then why are you including the part you give money to the begger?" because it just seems unconnected. for those who dont belief in karma. i was happy to find out that she is one of some people that at her age belief in karma. and actually being touched by its power in such a big way.

she somehow belief it's connected. you just cant explain this kind of thing, but i do belief in it too.

it's powerful isn't it? and shame on me, i had forgotten about -giving- lately.

i belief that God, in such a rare chance (for me who are so not stable at the moment -to stay overnight at her condo- which is double- coz now the other bed is empty) had allowed me to meet her and share ideas with her that night wanted to remind me about this most out of other stuffs.

Thanks God, i hope that i could have another chat-till-morning again with her soon! and with enca too (then it must be a super duper extra long chat) and i want to have it with other girlfriends too :) a kai and kilikulu.
