Rainbow

Hi guys,

a quick recap and info: I was rereading my Skin Care Update post and I saw that I said that I'm going to post something on Make-Up "next". I have not forgotten about it, I just, keep putting it on hold, cost the picture preparation for that is overwhelming to me. LOL but I assure you, that post is coming. 

For now, I wanted to share this superstitious I just learned about Rainbow.

My fellow blogger friend posted a double rainbow pictures and I was reminded of that superstitious incident.

I was walking out of my office, halfway meeting a friend, when I saw the rainbow and excitedly pointed at it, gasping, "Rainbow!"

picture dated: 17th June 2019.


and she said to me, in urgency, "Baik ko isap tu jari mu ah!" Direct translation: You must suck on that finger.  (Get your head out of the gutter LOL!)

I looked at her scandalously, "Why?"

but the thing is, I forgot what she answered me with. 

๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

No, no. I'm not dismissing her beliefs. We both Malays and I have never heard of that before. Or maybe I have but have forgotten about it. 

So, naturally, I'm curious. 
why must I suck on my finger after I pointed at the rainbow? and the way my friend was instructing me to, it was like, I shouldn't have pointed at it in the first place and sucking on the finger is like a counter-measure thing to offset my doings. or something.
so now, I have another question: why can't I point at a rainbow?

๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”

I have my own theory(ies) tho:
1. we shouldn't have pointed at anything in general. You know, coz it's considered rude. 
2. what if we TERpoint arah 'invisible being' and they got offended and we got cursed? I know, this theory is soooooo melayuuuuu~~
3. these words formed in my head after I asked why: "Karang putus jari mu" direct translation: Later, lose your finger. ๐Ÿค”
4. Leprechaun. Cauldron full of Gold. ๐Ÿ€๐Ÿ€๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿงก

hahaha that fourth one is a joke! I don't have any other theories.

I shall asked this friend tomorrow if I see her.

for the time being, what do you think is the reason? Do any of my theory make sense?

Pointing Finger

I just had these thoughts lately and I think its important

I remember in one of my Team Building workshop, the facilitator mentioned about 'Pointing Finger'.

What I understood at that time was he was talking about blaming others but yourself.

He showed us this gesture



You see, when you point at someone, one finger is pointing to them, while three fingers are pointing at yourself.

In other words,

don't be easy to point faults in others. you might be at fault too.

Just something I've been thinking a lot.

and stop thinking that this post is dedicated to someone. 
I'm only posting this to reflect upon myself.

or am I?

LOL

but really, I've been so angry with a lot of people right now, and I think it's becoming a problem with me. mentally and physically.

it's not good.

and that 'pointing finger' thing pops up in my head.

it calms me down, little by little.

When you realized that you are not that perfect too, this 'gelora di jiwa' is not so worth it. 

coz there's just no point on getting work up over everything.

and that's all I'm gonna say, 

I have a lot on my plate right now, I can't be bother taking care of everybody else.

Failing isn't forever

So, I failed again and was very sad about it.

I thought I've tried my best but I guess my best isn't good enough.

My sister said, 'Redha'. and I just nodded. 

I was said for a few hours on Saturday and indulged myself with food from Mr. Baker. 
It was supposed to be a celebration food but oh well...

Now that I've been given a clearer picture of what I should do next, I'm going to, as the Robinson said, 'Keep Moving Forward'. I'm still trying to consult myself to not look back even though its a tat bit hard to do.

I guess, as long as I'm not still here, right?

just. BIZARRE

So, I found out about this 'remove Jonghyun from SHINee' news, like 15 mins or so ago.
and I made it my business to know whats really going on.

Turns out it's about Jonghyun supporting this movement about Gay Rights (or something like that).

I saw his tweet that time and I even saw how it stirred up the cyber world (or maybe just the kpop world). at that time I thought, it wasn't that big of a deal. I mean, to each their own, right?

Skali, today, when I opened my asianfanfics account, I saw someone posted a petition to counter the petition 'remove Jonghyun from SHINee'.
and I was like, "COME ON".
I really still think that it wasn't that big of a deal.

because, Jonghyun was just supporting them thru his own perspective point of view. and I quote "As a celebrity who deals with the public, I feel a sense of loss in a world that does not acknowledge changes."

So what if he's really gay? I don't care! (coz he's not Onew. so, it's fine. LOL)

I mean, didn't the kpop world (or just Shawol) always going on about shipping JongKey? a.k.a. Jonghyun and Key?
Isn't Key a boy/guy/man/male?
don't these people kept on and on and on about what a cute couple they would be?

alright, maybe these people didn't actually petition to throw Jonghyun out of SHINee. maybe it's from a different crowd.

BUT STILL!

it's his life! it's his opinion!

who are we to judge (anybody), really?!

I find it bizarre especially when people wanted him out of SHINee. I mean, come on! without Jonghyun SHINee wouldn't be here. he's that important to that group.

and so much more bizarre that I'm making this post about him. LOL

all I'm saying is that, we all have our own opinion on something. and supporting Gay Rights is Jonghyun's, so why can we just let that be?
