too short,i gotta celebrate it and try to share it with anyone and
hopefully this wild spirtit of mine might be able inspire and even safe
some of those out there….Okey…here it goes…
It was a friday, wesak day to be precise,12th May 2006 to be MORE
precise hehe!!!….so it was a public holiday here in my place…it
was actually during our mid tem exam period…all form 5 students of
malacca were suppose to sit for these papers in sync…em…and my add
maths is BAD!!seriously BAAAAADDD…okokey la…at least the form 4
syllabus la…honey moon wat last year…so…telokop la…***to form 4
students,concentrate in calsss please***…anyway…so I told a couple
of my buddies to come over so that we can do some practise on add
maths..Cisco came at 10.15 am…and we really did cover quite a bit I
would say…then Yan Sern came along at about 1pm…i thought he was
going to seriously study,but after a few sums he started complaining
bout add maths,we were all in my room by the way…on the FLOOR!!!..not
doin anything else but studying la!!!..haiz..ya’ll
ah…tsk…tsk…LOL…nyways..he suddenly from there went on to life
and all…as in really far into the future…sampai..wanted to have a
supreme family la…wanted to have empire la…then we suddenly fell
into the topic of business strategies hahahah…we went all the way
from Italy to China then India,Sri Lanka…Africa oso got…and finally
back to Malaysia…we din really go to these places la…we were talkin
bout civilization and all,use la IQ a bit…haiz..okey..then he started
talkin bout WIFE pulak!!!..haiz!!!…that dude!!!…visionary
man!!!..optimistic…!!…proactive!!!…you name it man..hahah..oni
thing add math can not do,others all he pretty good la…strange
eh??..memang cuz that is exactly the theme of this
post-STRANGE-hehe..so it’s goin to be long….em…okey back to
"wives"…this is pretty hilarious..haha…Sid always said he wanted a Japanese wife but a he oso wanted to preserve his Hainanese line…so we told him to go find a Japanese Hainan…hahahaah….he said that made sense but was hard to do…dat fella double minded one la…haiz…kk…why am I beating round the bush!!..oh yea…spice up a bit la..!!…kk…so all of us started bekhayal so far away la…fantasizing then I saw things going out of control…so…I quickly brought all of us down to earth, my principle..
so this might be a little sensitive gurls..em…I said that em..mostly females…will need a someone to depend on when they become young adults,because em their looks were em going to "expire"..and all that amd a whole load of crap I said la…so SORRRYY!!!..honestly!!!…basically what I was trying to say is …we should have the i-depend-on-me attitude..other than I and God…we should depend on no one else….but that thought I think was starting to poison me suttlely..I was starting to fall in to the trap of…I and I and I and I..you must understand that all these were the effect of serious emotional pressure and feeling people have taken advantage out of your weakness..especially the person that you THOUGHT would always be there for you during any trial…so can say la,my whole perspective towards life changed..I secretly prayed for a rock solid hard as the days pass by..I was confortably living this life for a few months can say la…nothing seemed to be going wrong…my grades werent dropping…and lately I have suddenly been feeling the value of friends…and I realise how short my time is left in this house…being a boy..when I leave,there is a slim chance of coming back…i already started planning my future..but I still kept God in mind and kept saying with every hope.."God-willing"..
This is the part where faith gave me a hard wrap on the head of my spirit..Cisco was suppose to go back at about 6.30….and he was perfectly all rite with it…but his dad suddenly came at about 4.45…so much earlier..and he came without any notice..okey..that was faith’s 1st strike…Sid had to leave at 5 and he did,so that was planned,that was allrite…so when they all left,i decided to take my bike and go for a cycle..***earlier in the mornin Cisco was askin how far I could make the bike "jump"***…so I was with my bro…we were going real slow…we were talkin bout rollerblades…***you can clearly see my love for something extreme***…..anyways after that I accidentally bumped into my brothers back wheel…was juz a lil bump,he thought I did it on purpose so after another few feet he allegedly pulled his brakes..makin the front wheel of my bike bump into his back wheel again…dis time a lil bit harder…strike 2..I got a lil angry and told him, its not my bike that was sustaining any damage,but his,..I was a lil angry,there were lil sparks comin out from me…but It was nothin la…so I cooled within a few seconds..em..he sped off..he started jumpin over the bumps, then as he passed by me from the opposite direction he said "How far can you "jump"?"..so i thot I’d join in the fun…this was nothing new to me…I have been cycling since I was 5…cycling at my housing area since 6..so its exactly 10 years la..I have cycled at great speeds…not boasting but its because Iha no one else to dwell with or do anything else…nyways back to the stosry…so..I cycled a lil far back…gained some speed…and went off…I can confidently saying I was doing at least 50 kilo metres per hour..and I went off…the road was clear…and I was suppose to jump off the 1st bump I saw…but before I could pull my handle bar…the front wheel came off!!!..at that speed!!!…STRIKE 3!!!…as soon as the wheel came off…it’s either I blacked out or couldnt remember what happened..according to my brother,this was what happened…
According to Calvin: My brother,Calvin,was a few feet away from me..say 12??..when the front wheel came off,ihe said he heard a a loud sound,BANG!!..and he said he turned..and saw me still on the bike…the front part of the bike hit the speed breaker with me still on it,then the bike bounced of the ground…the bike and I were both air borne…the bike was then later higher than me ***wat do you expect??it was <16kg without the wheel.this info is crucial for ya’ll to know for the later part of the story***while i was in the air..the "fork" that was holding t he wheel hit the back of my head real hard..so then I landed on the ground real hard…my spectacles broke into a million peices as they were frameless…he said I was out for about 10 seconds or so..then later I was standing up in my neighbour’s place,David,..I was aking what happened to me??..Why is there blood??..I din feel pain..maybe I was that confused…I was later taken back home…
I saw looked at t he mirror at home when I came home…It was BLOODY RED!!!…I could see a deep cut just above my lip…I was fuming mad!!!..I stomped the ground..and shouted!!!"Why me!?!?!?…Why must this happen to me?!?!?!…What the hell have I done wrong?!!?!?"..It was just anger,hardly any tears,I was a LIL sad that my face sustained such damage..but I was FUMING MAD because I was angry at God for that few seconds..because memories of other bad thiongs came flooding into my mind…that’s it..I was saying my prayers…I said sorry…even I knew that I was safe,I was afraid that I was going to suffer short term memories…but God gave me strength,he din let me cry…I just closed my eyes as my mother tried cleaning my wounds in vain…then I just started talkin to my mum what happened that day, like nothing ever happened…she tried to remain cool..but her love was visible thru the frowns on her head…I was just calm…preparing myself for the worst..
I went to the hospital..with a couple of famliy friends-they came all the way from seremban-and dad after he came back…I went into the Accident & Emergency ward..the staffs did the dressing…my face was still bleeding badly,but thank goodness that part of my brain that was to feel pain shut off,i think…I suffered major skin loss at my nose…and various parts on the right side of my face…I also fractured my nose..but the deep tear above my lip was most crucial…it can cause me deformity..thank goodness a plastic surgeon came along,he could reduce the risk of deformity..if anybody else did it,the story would have been different…so i underwent surgery on Saturday morning..3 hour long…was under general anasthatheics,so I din feel any pain because "pengsan" ad…I was in the hospital for seven days and some stitching is going to be removed this Saturday..right now…the skin is healing..but it’s going to take a lot of time la…maybe 6 months but scars would still be visible….but never mind…
Thinkin about it,though God allowed this to happen he still protected me…The glass pieces could have entered my eye..I could have lost my sight…I could have become paralyzed or suffered brain damage…considering the amount of impact I received on the back of my head…I am thankful,and not to worried bout my face…I’ll snap a picture and let ya’ll see haha…it’s BAD believe me,but that’snot going to stop me…NOPE!!!…nobody can believe that I had a BICYCLE accident!!!..that is why,this is all faith,clearly there is a reason for this thing…some sort of message which I am still trying to figure out….but one thing I discovered…I always though there was no one there for me,but with the amount of visitors I had…I can only look up to heaven and smile…..I am speechless…my friends have proven to be true,at least,of every wrong thing I have done…God has guided me to choose this hearts of GOLD..Amen to that….Another funny thing is…I broke my elbow at 6, broke the foot at 12…and now the face at 16…i thought something was suppose to happen at 18!!…haiz…but I am done already la…I think this is enough…I already got a nice collection of X-ray that I can show my children…LOL….the other funny thing was…Sid called me Michael Jackson on friday because I wanted to depend on no one….betul betul jadi oh!!!…hahaha….from CJ to MJ….
I was afraid that I was going to loose my love for doing something extreme, I was so afraid to look at the boy in the mirror…it looked more like a devil…but at the last day at the hospital…when my class mates walked in again….when they made me smile from ear to ear even though it hurt so bad….I knew where my place was and that’s when I realise my prayer was answered..my heart was impenetrable towards peoples looks and thoughts of me…let it be..people always did say my face potray someone evil and sly eventhough I am not..and now I look like a terrorist..but its okey..I WILL get back on my wheels…dis time with full safety gear…and I will skate….this spiritual attribute isn’t easy to obtain…but thru the power of the most high…HE has thought me well to pick myself up…and soar again!!..hopefully I’ll be a living testimony to those who think they are junk…
To God be the Glory,
