a baby's cries moulds the world

I heard a baby cry a few days ago.

And now I can immediately visualised the sharp, shrieking sound.

And what comes to mind is that all babies cry alike, no matter black, white, yellow or brown.

Babies come into the world innocent.

Yet they grow amidst all sorts of messages pounded into their being, their conscience.

• The fairer skin is better than the darker
• The thinner child is better acknowledged than the plump one
• The prettier, better looking one is given more attention to than the plain looking

And soon they learn that

• The rich is better favoured to than the middle class income
• The one who drives a car is better than the one who takes public transportation

And soon they lose all sense

• Saving the environment by cycling a bicycle to short distances is a stupid
• Mingling among the poor (and darker skinned) reduces one's status
• Even one's faith in the Divine is questioned by external forces as one should have some faith but not too much as it can restrict one's growth in the material world
• In that sense, profound religious beliefs also halters one's growth towards riches because 'How can you accept MODERATION and not work for more money?' and 'How can you friend all kin and kind and not care about yours and your parents' 'face'?'

Sigh.... and the baby's crying goes on.

And the baby's crying lingers on in my head, a long prolonging cry, pleading to the world to listen

Are you innocent of discrimination? Of chasing the materials in this world?

Or are you guilty of corrupting babies?

Here's What the Princess Looks Like

Well, I bet the Blog would look way nicer with a caption of the chieftain herself wouldn't it? so fyi, this is what the Princess looks like.

Here sitting in all her splendour is Princess Running Water and behind her is the Red Indian chief whom she has claimed for her own. *che wah* wait til he sees this... yup that's the one man in my life. The Alpha and Omega. The person who made a difference for me and the one man who claimed me as his shawnee princess, accepted and beloved by his birth right clan, adored and loved by the most important man in the world. well, I ain't kidding. I take care of him, and he takes care of me. I'm his baby and his my Master... *cough, choke, ok, ok enough already!* too much info overload, so much so that I might be getting sick myself!

DISCLAIMER: CAUTION: ALL THOSE WHO GET WEAK IN THE STOMACH ON A DOLLOP OF MUSHINESS, HELL, I AIN'T TO BE HELD LIABLE OK! GO DO AN ENDOSCOPIC ON YOUR TUMMY, GO SEE UR PANEL DOCTOR! teeeheee....

Today I Almost Died.....*Phew*

Hello all and yes I almost died...[aiya...not THAT type of die, die lar...CHOY so SUEY wan!!] can u imagine, I was itching to add a new blog but had heaps to do today and finally [FINALLY] had some time at around 3.20pm to toy around and the damn server thing said something about my office proxy blocking me from accessing this site!!!!!!!!!!

Hell I almost died!Me, the Princess... just 2 days old and I had to say good bye forever. Well, guess I could add entries at home during weekends...BUT the Blog thingy is what gave me hope and saved me from the routine of DEATH called work in the first place! and now they wanna keep me away? keep me off from the one indulgence I get 5 days a week????? Not suprisingly, tots of resigning the company ran thru my head liao....aiyo..

But thank GOD! I logged off and re-double clicked on the IE logo and waited, and waited, and waited some more for something [ANYTHING] to appear on my screen........ *cats & dogs 1*cats & dogs 2*cats & dogs 3*cats & dogs 4*, etc,etc,etc.....

And then GOD did take pity on me and VOILA! It appeared! I could get into my world and was blessed enough write my daily dose of crap!!AH...ALLELUIA!ALLELUIA!

AMEN.

PS: well if nothing else, at least the false alarm managed to get me to open my eyes real big, big [like teacup saucers from that story 'The Tinderbox']. And now, I'm not 'sweeepy' anymore... 2 hours and a bit more work till going home time.. *SIGH*
PPS:Thank you suanie, dannyfoo, jolene and raksha for dropping in, saying hi [dancing in the colors] and welcoming me. Your kindness does not go unnoticed. Next time bring a glass of milk and chocolate muffins ok!

Ahhhh... The Gr8 SHE has graced my humble webbie!!!

I can’t believe she visited!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe she visited AND she left a comment!!!!
*all hail Her Royal Majesty Ms MINISHORTS of Malaysia!!!* [knee all! hail I tell you! HAIL!]

Well, to the uninitiated, Princess Running Water was born to the digital world only yesterday -21/june/05. And she attributed her royal birth to MINISHORTS for like many, she [the Princess, not the Majesty] was a virgin blogger until she stumbled onto minishorts interview in a certain M'sian daily and continued to further stumbled onto her webpage. And then stumbled on some more to Capt. Carcinogen & Belacans babies. ahhhh.... the rest HISTORY liau lar..... I GOT HOOKED! HOOKED I TELL YA!

So after my first posting, before I left the office, I emailed minishorts, explaining how she's my role idol, telling her to thank the Capt. and the Belacan dude for me, for she's my saviour who saved me from the boring, drudgery life of THE-ULTIMATE-SLOW-DEATH routine called WORK, blah, blah, blah, etc.....

Nuff' said... aiyo.... after my *water face* will drop lar like this... [for the uninitiated, water face = air muka lor! aiya, like dat also dunno ar?] tsk, tsk, tsk.... teeheee...

ANYWAYYYYYYYY........

I checked my webbie in the morning and there was nothing, zippo, nadda, zilch. So I figured, nyah… she’s a big short now [pun intended...mini shorts, big shorts....GEDDIT?aiyo...] cos got into Star 2 liau…. Won’t happen, she won’t grace my site.

But u know what? I checked at 4pm and there was 1 comment! Tot it was from Blogspot.com but looky-here!!!! Well, blimey! It was from the CREATOR herself!!!

Well, first off, thank you! Thank you! Thank you minishorts! This blogger’s spirit was going so dooowwnnnn wondering ‘how the heck to make my page beauuutifulllllll??’ and mainly ‘how to advertise to get traffic in?’ but then I saw ur grace *ahem* and I’m right on it again! Well, here I come!

Thanks again minishorts!
~Have a great day aight~

Woooohooo my 1ST Intellectual Property Baby!!!!

Ah well, here's the start of a new dawn (the dawn of a new start?)...

WELCOME ONE AND ALL TO THE KINGDOM OF MOZART. WHERE THE WATER STILL RUNS IN STREAMS (crystal clear, with electric coloured fishes flashing their beautiful colours beneath the baby tides), AND THE WOODS IS BIG (with tree roots sprawling [crawling] all over the earth), THE LEAVES ARE ABUNDANT (and green) AND YET SUNLIGHT STILL GLIMPSES ITS WAY THROUGH THE RICH, THICK BEAUTIFUL FOLIAGE...
(although it is my birth, yet i don't expect the news to spread like a forest fire yet...)

Here, you can run thru the woods (be careful of the roots!) (or walk if you may) and catch flashes of innocent sunrays keeping you warmth and better yet watch sunbeams dancing on the many stream beds, personified with life by the 7 colours of the rainbow.

Here too lives a princess.. 'Maeva Ariki!' (long live the princess!)

Here is where the story begins. Here is where the popular saying ' The Journey of a Thousand Miles Begins with a Single Step' originated from.

LONG LIVE THE PRINCESS. LONG LIVE PRINCESS RUNNING WATER.
