Specific life,

        Hello world my name is Walter Loh and I am a cancer survivor who is still breathing until today. Today I am 50 years old and I was affected by colon cancer 10 years ago. My life is full of regrets in the past. Regrets which I create before I got my colon cancer. The moment when I knew I got colon cancer, I felt onto my knees, crying badly at the hospital. I nearly committed suicide at ‘Pantai hospital’ but one of the nurses saw my action and prevent me from doing so.  She gave me a few advices and answered the entire question that was in my mind during that time. Today I am walking from one place to another giving talk to public about cancer awareness but very few people are taking action to help us and also not feeling sympathize for us which make us left out in the society. We sometimes think that are we meant to be still alive until today when the society does not care about us?  Are we still useful to help the nation to take a step a head to the new frontier? Or are we just an experiment for people to see how we survive this far?

     Well let me share a story with you people that I experience before. My mom passed away when I was 35 years old due to a heart attack. From there I become very specific on every meal I take. I will have to count the calories that were present in every meal I took daily and have to limit myself to a total number of calories per day. I even took up a few classes in the fitness to keep my healthy and fit because I would not want to die the same way my mother did and suffer like what she suffer when she was about to die. ‘Prevention is better than cure’. That idiom hit my head hard and changed my life after the death of my mom. My friends always call me crazy whenever I eat with them because I will look at the menu and used the calculator in my phone to count the number of calories that I am going to consume for that particular meal.

             One day, when I was having reunion dinner with my family, my mother in law on my  sister side kept on nagging about me having to calculate the calories that was present on each meal on the table. “ Walter Loh! Don’t be a fool of yourself having to count the number of calories on each meal and tell us what to eat and what not to eat. Your brother here who is the eldest in your family ordered the food for us all here to enjoy and you are just making people losing their appetite. What would life be when you are limiting yourself from having fun? ‘You only live once’ simply means that the we were only giving a chance to live for once and once we die, we might not get a 2^nd chance to reborn as a human again. Therefore, enjoy life to the fullest when we are still breathing!”.

               I was kept silence for a moment until I came up with a sentence to reply my mother in law. “ I am sorry and let’s have fun!”. Everyone begin to start eating while I force myself to take every dish on the table to make everyone feel happy. We were all busy chatting and laughing throughout the meal.  The meal ended with everyone smiling. We waved good bye to each other and promised ourselves that we will be visiting one another on the 1^st day of Chinese New Year. 

             5 years later, my life is getting tougher.  The pain in my belly and the unexplained lose weight makes me worry a lot because I am always careful for what I eat. One day I decided to consult a doctor.  The doctor examines me and when he comes to his conclusion, I had butterfly in my stomach.

          “ Walter, based on your reports and the test on your blood samples, I am afraid to tell you that you have colon cancer!” the doctor informed me.  “ What? How could that even be possible when I am so careful for what I eat everyday? I even calculate the calories on every food I eat and limit myself to a total number of calories I can have in each meal? I even force myself not to eat much meat but more vegetables? Why? Doctor tells me why?” Walter asked with his wild eyes.   “ Walter, did anyone of your family member die of colon cancer?” the doctor asked me curiously. “ My dad did!” I replied. “ Then that colon cancer was inherited  from your dad!” the doctor explained. “ Then all this while I am wasting my life not being able to eat good food! Damn myself! I never thought that my life would end up like my dad. I thought that when I take precaution, I will stay away from any diseases but end up my effort is just a waste!” Walter sobbed. “Why did you even plan to calculate the calories on each meal you take?” the doctor asked Walter curiously. “Because my mom died of heart attack!” I answered and left the room sobbing.  I ran to the highest floor and pushed a door which leads me to the rooftop of a hospital. A nurse who saw me went into a door which is only’ authorize for the staff’ followed me up. I almost jumped off from the building but was stopped form by the nurse who yelled towards my direction.  She is the girl who changed my life and made me who I am today. Without her, I won’t be living up till today and giving this talk.

                 After hearing what the nurse had told me I quickly drove home from the hospital once I got my medication and went back straight to my apartment to call up my big brother to come over to my place immediately. Once he had arrived at the door step, I quickly open the door and he saw that I was crying badly. “ Walter what happen?” Louis, my brother asked me. “ I have cancer! Why must I be the one having cancer? Why?” I sobbed.

“ You have cancer? Who told you that?”

“ I went to the hospital earlier this afternoon and have a medical check up because I was having pain in my belly  for a month and also feeling fatigue lately even though I had  long hours of sleep. I had been skipping for work for nearly 2 weeks because I was tired. When the results came out from the lab, the doctor told me that I had colon cancer!”I explained.

“ What?” Louis blurted out. “Melissa mother in law was indeed correct about me 5 years back! I never take her words seriously and end up my life is filled with nothing fun by having myself not to eat all the fancy food you people eat everyday.  I guess sometimes what old people says is true!,” Walter said with his bug eyes. “ Walter! Having fun is not only on food but on anything you do with your heart and passion. Foods that we eat are the taste which makes us feel delightful only. Fun can be cerate in any environment. Besides that, you still have time now before you depart. So stop blaming yourself and do something fun in return. It is never too late to turn over a new leaf even though we know that our life is about to come to an end,” Louis tried to cheer me up.

       “ How am I suppose to do whatever you are talking about?” I asked. “ Well start by writing down the things you really want to do before you die!” Louis answered my question.  “ I see!” I muttered. “ I will help you tell Melissa about what you had been affected and let us play ‘PS3’ to clear things out from your mind. Alright?” Louis said as he tabbed my back. “ Alright!” I replied and he went to took the ‘PS3’ at my drawer and set it up. Once the console has been switched on, we were both playing ‘Call of Duty: Ghost” happily.

             

      The next day, a phone call woke me up. I answered it while I was half asleep. “Walter! Why didn’t you call me and told me about it instead of your brother?” Mellissa flared. “ I am sorry sis! I just got no guts to call you and say that your mother in law is right about me. That’s why I was scared to make a phone call to you last night!” I replied with guiltiness in me. “ But I am still your sister right?” Melisa asked curiously. “ You are and always will!” I answered her question. “ So how can I help you now?” Melisa wanted to know. “ For the time being, I would like to be alone!” I said. “ You sure about it?” Melissa said. “ I am sure!” I exclaimed.

  “ If you need anything, just call me will do and I am willing to help you out!

“ Sure sis!” I replied and we both left the conversation after saying ‘goodbye to each other’.

        After talking with my sister on the phone, I lay on the bed staring at the ceiling to think what I should do next.  An hour later, an idea pops up from my mind. I quickly phone my company and told them about my situation and wanted to resign. The company that I worked on approved my resignation and I went on a holiday trip to Bali for a week exploring the place and enjoy the beautiful scenery. Bali is a place for relaxation and I enjoy it very much even though I travel alone to Bali. Once I came back from Bali, I decided to give motivational talk and create a blog for my own.

            Today, I am still living because of the desire I have in the path I chose. The path we chose must have desire and passion in it to keep the path alive. Every path has its own heart to pump blood throughout the path we chose. The moment the heart of our path stop, we will be frozen and will not be able to move unless we use electricity to shock our heart to regain back its functionality. Sometimes in our life, we may be stuck for what we do but in order to keep on going forward, we need guidance and help to guide us forward because no men can stands on its own.  Furthermore, death is chosen.  I am still struggling to survive because I have a few more things to do before I die and once my goal have been achieve, I am ready to depart from earth and stop struggling to live. Many youngsters nowadays are committing suicide due to relationship and money issues. Well let me tell you something, people who commit suicide will leave sorrow behind and also the things which the dream to be in the future. Who will be there to fulfill your dream after your death? We live so far and yet some people want to end their life because of love or sometimes money issues. For love, we can’t say that love is blind but the people who we fall in love with used their charm to charm us  in order to get what they really want from you since the beginning that you both met... Besides that for the money part, we can always find another way to get back the money we lost by starting small like investment. 

             My brother told me that fun can be cerate in any environment and it is true. For an example, when students get bored in class, the teacher will think out of the box to do something fun like telling a joke that he or she experience themselves which is hilarious.  My last goal that I am going to achieve in two weeks time is to travel to ‘Bali’ and enjoy the beautiful scenery that I last saw when I travel to  ‘Bali’ for the 1^st time.  Once I am done with it, I am ready to give back my life to god.

        Well, I have come to an end for my talk but let me remind you people about something which you people always forget. People who are always serious for everything they do, they will miss out the fun  other people are enjoying.  Don’t be so serious in what we do everyday but have fun in the process of doing our work because life is short. We will never know when god wants us but we can always tell god to wait by struggling to live like me. Furthermore people who are specific in what they do will also tend to lose the fun people are enjoying.  Enjoy life to the fullest when we are still breathing so that we will not die with regret in us. The life we are living in is just once and might not get a 2^nd chance to be reborn as human again and be what we are like today. Therefore, be wise for what you do and don’t let regret be with you at the end of the day when you were about to die. By the way, please don’t let us Cancer patient feel left out from the society. Pay a visit to us all once in a blue moon because this shows that the community still cares about us and we still have a chance to bring the country to a new frontier. May you all be well and happy! May you all be bless with great health and great fortune!  Goodbye and thank you! By the way Happy Chinese New Year!” I wished everyone in the lecture hall and gave a smile to them before living the stage. 

What is Chinese New Year ?

What is Chinese New Year? I don’t really understand it that much. My name is Bryant Tan. My parents passed away when I was 2 due to a road accident. Therefore, I was sent to an orphanage because no one wanted to accept me to their families even though they are my relatives. I told myself that I could create a family of my own at the orphanage.  When I was 12, I had 3 sisters and 4 brothers. My 2 sisters were Chinese and another was a Malay girl. She was the leader of our room. My 2 brothers were Indian and the other 2 was Chinese. We were all closed and one day I suggested to them to be my brother and sisters. They agreed and from there a family was created.

     Every Chinese New Year, we were given a feast on ‘Chinese New Year Eve’, ‘1^st day and the last day of ‘Chinese New Year’. The feast we get are like Sushi, KFC,Pizza Hut and sometimes Domino. All of the children who lived in the orphanage were given a chance to eat this type of food when there is a celebration of a race. The feast was shared among everyone in the society no matter you are an Indian, Chinese or Malay. The funds we get to eat these type of food was the money that was donated by schools, companies, NGO and other societies that are willing to help us. We were all thankful for their help and in return we made handcraft stuff to appreciate their help for us.

               One day in school, I heard my friend talking about ‘ Ang Pau’. I went towards them and asked them, “What is Ang Pau?”. “ Say what? You don’t know what Ang Pau is?” Jonus said with his bug eye. I shake my head left and right to tell him ‘No’. “Oops! I forgot that you have no mommy and daddy to give you Ang Pau.” Jonus replied. “What is it? Please tell me?” I insisted on getting the answer. “ Ang Pau is something that people give u a red packet which filled up with bad luck inside. When you were about to receive it, run away or else you will be haunted by the bad luck for 5 months!” Jonus explained. “ Really?” I asked with my wild eyes. :” Yup!” Jonus answered and I left from the scene.

             When it was the last subject of the day, Mr.Eng my Bahasa Malayisa teacher told me to stay back for a minutes once the last school bell rang. When the last bell rung, Mr. Eng asked me to approach forward to him and I did. He gave me a ‘Red packet’ and I was frozen for a moment to receive it. I suddenly remember what my friend said about it and try to make a run but I could not as I must show my respect to my teachers. “ Sir, I can’t take it!” I refused to take the red packet on his hands. “Why?”, Mr Eng asked curiously. “Because my friend told me just now that Ang Pau has bad luck in it.” I replied. “Bryant! Red packets are filled up with money inside. The friends who told you earlier are talking craps which makes you only want to refuse the ‘Red packet’ people are giving you,” Mr.Eng explained. “ My friend fooled me!” I muttered. “ Take it and Happy Chinese New Year,” Me Eng greeted me and I greeted him back.

               When I got back to my orphanage, I shared the awkward story I had in sschool with my brothers and sisters. They were all surprised to see the ‘Red Packet’ I have on my hands. My brothers and sisters look jealous but I told them that we are able to spend it on ‘Ice-cream’ and they were all on cloud nine.

             The ninth day of Chinese New Year when I met one of my caretaker, I asked her, “Why don’t any of us receive ‘Red packet’?” .She replied, “ Because we don’t have much money to give each and one of you but instead we used up that money to give you all a feast which makes everyone on cloud nine!”. “ Oh!” I said and we both waved goodbye and went to bed.

            20 years later when I got my job, I had so much friends in the adult world compared to the friends I had when I was a kid. I am able to still keep in touch with my brothers and sister through Facebook. Every year during Chinese New Year, I will visit them and also the people who I met throughout my path. I even went back to my own orphanage and took them out in a bus that I hired. We travel around Penang and visited places like ‘World War 2 Museum’, ‘Butterfly farm’ and many more.  The kids and teenagers enjoyed the trip and I promise to do it with them every year when I am around

    Coming back to my question, ‘What is Chinese New Year?’. I found the answer after 20 years. Based on my opinion, Chinese New Year isn’t about collecting money but it is about to reunite everyone who were once closed but then when they got their job, they have to stay far away from each other. We seldom see our relatives and therefore, Chinese New Year was created by our ancestor to reunite everyone back together with happiness.  Furthermore, Chinese New Year is a great way where we were able to share their stories with one another about what we experience during our past years and we might actually learn something from there when people comment on our stories that we had experience. To maintain the bond that the Chinese have, reunion dinner and Chinese New Year is the solution for them to do so. We sometimes might quarrel with one another and the only way for us to meet again and forgive one another is through Chinese New Year. Life is short though therefore, spend every precious time you have with your relatives that you only get too see them once a year because we will never know when they will depart from earth.  Besides that, we all could feel that when Chinese New Year is here, all of us could feel that love is in the air flying from one person heart to another. Happy Chinese New year people and I love you all J

Bubuchacha

          As i am walking home after a midnight movie from Queensbaymall. I felt tired and exhausted after I had used so much of my energy in the fitness. I sang some song which i could remember to keep me awake and stay focus on the road. A few minutes later, I was paying attention on the busy road in order for me to reach the other side of the road. As I cross over, i took a deep breath and exhale. I looked up the sky and I saw a full moon. I was amaze by the stars up in the skies which shine so brightly. I sat on the grass and gaze up the beautiful sky!

A few minutes later, i heard a sound of a twig 'Cracked' behind me. I spun around and i did not see anything! I begin to feel scared but I just ignore it and looked up the sky. About 2 minutes later, I heard someone sniff behind me! I spun around again and saw nothing. I quickly stood up and walked away. I felt scared and my face is turning pale. I was all alone on the street! I felt like I am the only single person alive! I walked as fast as possible until I reached the bus stand.

When I reached at the bus stand, I heard some footstep following behind me! I spun around and found nothing but a plastic bag drifting away by the wind. I took up my phone to check on my text message. As I am reading my text message I froze! Someone sent me a text message that says " Help me! Help me Uchiha! The curse is still on me and I can't lift it up myself!". I tried to find the number of the person who sent me this text message but instead it showed me 444-4444444!
I dropped my cellphone and heard a voice of a man behind me! I spun around and I could not even shout for help! The man had some blood stained on his blue and white checkers t-shirt, his leg was injured badly and bruise on his left eye. His nose was crooked and one of his arm is gone! His mouth was hurt badly and his face was injured terribly like being hit by a baseball bat or a golf stick!
" There is no need for you to be scared! I just need your help to release me from this curse!" said the ghostly figure man! " How can I help you? " I gasped!
“By serving me justice for the man who killed me!" he replied. " Why did you chose me? Why can't you choose someone beside than me who is even braver to handle this?" I asked him frighteningly! Well that's because you sat on the red handkerchief I left it on the grass before I got murdered." he replied. " I am sorry Mr! I promise not to sit around that area anymore or even cross this road! Please let me go!" I am too young to die and handle this kind of situation! I am just only 17!", I begged him! " The rules of the Underworld! Whoever sat, step or pick up something belongs to the afterlife must help them who want justice in order for them to Rest In Peace! Furthermore, for those who ignored shall be punished based on the act they did to awaken the soul of the afterlife! So do you understand now?" he asked me. " Yes I do! But what if I begged?". " You shall be punished" he stomped and strong wind started to blew me.
" Ok ok! Tell me what to do!", I tried to chill him down. " 1st go back to where you sat just now!" he ordered me. I walked slowly and the ghostly figure is focusing on every move I make like he knows I am about to run. My instinct told me to help this guy but I felt like running away. When I reached at the spot where I sat! I saw a maze plant growing. " Now I need you to take 5 step to the front!". I followed his ordered and I saw a patch of the ghostly figure t-shirt below the grass that he is wearing ( I was able to see it because I was below a lamp post). “Now take a tissue and pick the evidence up!" I picked up and next he asked me to look at the lamp post wiring box! When I open it up, I saw a hand at the base of the wiring box and it is stinks inside. He told me to remember this place to show it to the police! Next he asked me to walk back to the bus stand and follow the drain which leads me to a huge drain. It was so stink which made me throw out all the ‘Big Mac’ I ate for dinner! He told me to keep on walking until it leads me to a drain tunnel where I saw a body and the t-shirt that is exactly the same as the ghostly figure man is wearing. He then asked me to take 20 steps to the front and I saw his right arm inside the log of a tree! He wanted me to remember every scene of the incident that took place which involved the death of him. He then ordered me to walk back to the bus stop and called the police! The ghost told me that his name was Bubuchacha. Once the police arrived! I told them everything and he asked me twice! " Are you sure that you found Bubuchacha?". " Yes sir! I did! I can show you everything I know!". I showed the police everything I knew and the police was curious about how I knew about all of these things. He suspected me as a killer and I was held in the Police department for 24 hours! After everything has been analyzed, he was shocked to see that I am not the killer. He showed me the DNA test result of the murder which happens to be the blood of the murderer that  was found on the t-shirt of the Victims.
" Mr, do you know who is this?" He asked me. " Nope" I replied. " He is one of the top 10 most wanted MEN in THE S.W.A.T list IN MALAYSIA! He is a drug and a weapon dealer" the Chief told me. “What? Then please catch him now! If not he might kill more people, sell drugs to other country which can cause our country to be badly insulted." I told him. “Yup! I knew that. We are going to catch him now!" the chief told me!
"BOOM" a loud explosion happens just right outside of the building! "Slam" the door flung open widely. " Sir we are under attacked by someone!" one of the corporal to the chief . " Get you weapons ready, boy followed me" he ordered the corporal and me. I followed him and he lead me to a room which I saw hundreds of guns! " Boy wear this bullet proof armor and take a gun that you like for a moment!" he told me. " You serious? " I asked him and I was amaze that he allowed me to carry a gun. " Yes! Boy! Don't tell me you don't even know how to shoot!". " Sir I am one of the expert in BLACKSHOT!" I told him. " Get your ass out there then!. When we left the room and head towards the main gate, bullets were all flying above me. " Guys listen up! I need a bazooka to take down that van which they have a machine gun on it! Next I need three sniper on the third floor and 4 guys with me on the back door. The rest defense the main gate as much as you guys can! Move out people! " the Chief commanded us!
I followed the chief and I was aware that there was an enemy in the kitchen. I shot it down and the Chief praise me. We left through the back door and we were moving silently like a tiger hunting its prey! " Sir we can’t hold much longer. The van is driving nearer and nearer!" one of the corporal told the chief through the walkie-talkie. " Throw a flash bang then and destroy that van with a bazooka!" the chief flared back! We walked slowly towards the front gate and the Chief told me to crawl to one of those bushes while he grabs the attention of the enemy. The chief took three  grenade and threw it  at the enemies. The enemies yelled and a moment later explosion was heard. The enemies begin firing at us while the chief and the 3 other policeman are busy garbing the enemies attention by allowing me to crawl towards the bushes. When I reached to the bushes, I begin shooting at the enemies with my Red dot! I shot like a mad person in the middle of war! I kept on throwing grenade towards the enemies and at the same time I open fire at the enemies  which make me destroy 50 police cars and 4 police bike plus numerous of enemies that I killed " BOY!!!!!!!!! You can stop now!!!!!!" the Chief shouted at me! I stopped and quickly drop to the ground and take a rest. When i woke up i was................................................................................................................................. lying on the hospital bed. I was shot at my chest and my leg. I saw my parents face which gave me a heart attacked! They started yelling at me and a few seconds later I was drifted to another dimension. " Thx Uchiha! you have now allow me to rest in peace now!" the ghostly figure told me. " Why did he attacked us?" I asked curiously. The answer is in the drawer when you wake up later. Farewell my friend! I woke up and found myself again staring at my parents and I saw the Chief in front of me plus my best buddies. My parents told me to read today headline and I begin to be Famous in Penang for my bravery act. I quickly pull out the drawer and I saw a pouch full of diamonds and gold! No wonder those men were attacking the Police headquarters." I purposely lead him to the Police headquarters and make him throw his temper there in order for you guys to catch him. I don't even know that he will even bring his whole gang to launch an attack on the police headquarters. The police are very scared of him but you had put an end to it by killing him!" Bubuchacha told me as I saw his soul vaporize through the air.

THE END!!!!!!!

Money can possess us !

               

                   “Good evening to everyone out there who is currently watching CNN now! Today we have a special guest here name Nicholas Tze. Nicholas Tze is now working for the film industry and today he is a very successful man with a very unique background from how he become what he wants to be today! Let’s welcome Nicholas Tze with a round of applause”, the news reporter named Carinne welcome Nicholas Tze to the show. “ Thank you! Thank you!” Nicholas Tze bows down in front of the camera to thanks his fans for the round of applause.

                    “ Hello Nicholas! How are you? Please do take a seat right here!” Carinne said as she pointed a red chair for him to have a seat. “ Hi! I am fine!” Nicholas said as he smiled to Carinne. “ Nicholas, tell me the story that you wanted to told me the other day when I was on the phone with you,” Carinne winked her right eye at Nicholas. “ Oh! That story! No wonder you postpone my story to today so that my fans can hear it! Good choice!” Nicholas laughed. “ Now you know! Well you may start now with the story! We are all on our nerves to hear it” Carrine replied as she took a glass of water to drink.

              “ Ok! I will start now so bear along with me throughout the show! When I was fifteen and it was 2 days away from Chinese New year, my sis and I had a bet to see who can collect the most money. My 2 sister and I accept the challenge and the person with the least money will have to give quarter of their money to the highest and the 2^nd highest collector. We even pinky swear and all of us were doing a checklist of people who we shall visit.

              On the 1^st day of Chinese New Year, we wore our new attire and were eager to visit our relatives’ house. Once we have reached their house, we pushed each other in before entering the house. We were all in our best behavior and helping as much people as we could in the house in order to get extra ‘Red Packet’. My sister Celina even perform a show for my Uncle and aunties to watch. She strums the guitar with a beautiful song she wrote to get their heart and mind. Once she had performed finish, she was given another ‘Red Packet’ each from my Uncles and aunties. I felt that I was losing in the game so I decided that I should do something too. I then decide to do a few magic tricks with the poker card I saw in the glass cabinet. I took it out and perform my magic tricks which managed to ‘Wow’ everyone in the living room. Once my show is done, I got another round of “ Red Packet ‘ from them and they called me the next Houdini. How funny was that? My youngest sister Cally felt she was left out too. Therefore, she asked us to give her some space while she do some dancing moves which made us all stunt for a moment even my parents did not know my sister,Cally could do such dance.

                      Once the time is up and we had to go for our 2^nd relatives house,  my sister and I were all talking about what we did back there.  Once we enter the car, we quickly count how much we got without letting the others now. After half an hour of driving, we visited the 2^nd house. We were all hoping the way in and I saw my mom sister with my grandma welcoming us into the house. My family and I had our chit chat about how is our life lately and so on with my grandma and my mom sister. It was quite a normal topic people speak off but it would be better if we share it deeper with some of our little secrets. We even repeat our acts on what we did in the 1^st relative house earlier to get a 2^nd round of ‘Red packet’.

                   After days of visiting all of our relatives, friends and teachers houses, we decide to count our money on the 4th day of Chinese New Year. We all counted and the winner goes to me. I was so happy that I had the most money compared to my 2 sister. My sister Cally which is the youngest had to give quarter of her money to my sister Celina and I for winning the challenge. My sister Cally was trying to break her promise even though we pinky swear. We kept on teasing her until she gave us our money. When she gave us the money, she was sobbing and was complaining to my parents about this matter. My parents gave her their portion of ‘Red Packet’ o make her feel happy.

              On the 5^th day of Chinese New Year during noon time, we were all playing ‘congkak’ in the living room without us knowing that our house was under fire. The fire was caused by two naughty boys who played fireworks which could shoot fireball up the sky. Three shots were accidentally hit the cable of our house which is used to connect the television for us to get the signal from the station. It was under fire and we did not realize it for an hour until we saw smoke coming from above us. We all ignored the smoke because we thought someone was burning the long joystick for some prayers.

        An hour later, we saw flame coming from the kitchen. My sister and I went into the kitchen and were frozen to death as the flame was slowly burning the whole kitchen up. “ Run!” Celina shouted. When we were about to turn around and run, part of the wall above us collapsed in front of us blocking our only exit. “Crawl down there!” I suggested the moment I saw a small pathway from where the wall had collapsed. “ Ok!” my two sister replied and we crawl our way out. Once we had crawled out, I just realize that my money was up in the room.  “ Cally and Celina head out for the exit! I have something to do!” I told my sister. “ What? We are both to scare to leave without you!” Cally sobbed.

      Not long, we could her a loud crash above us. “ Just go!” I flared and ran for my room at the 2^nd floor. When I was in the 2^nd floor, the place was badly burnt and it is hard to get through because many woods and bricks were tumbled down from the roof due to the flame. I quickly kicked the wood that blocked my path and it broke into two giving me a way to my room.  Once I had crossed over, I quickly ran into my room by kicking my room door. When the door was flung open, I saw my ‘Piggy bank’ under my bed which is still safe but my bed wasn’t. I quickly jump into my room and ducked to get my ‘Piggy Bank’. Once I got it, I quickly punched the window pane in my room until it breaks. Once it is broken, I jumped out from my room causing myself to stand on the edge of the 2-storey house. I placed my left hand on the pipe which connects to my rooftop and jumped down without getting injured. Once I landed on the ground safely with my ‘Piggy Bank’, I ran to the front of my house to look for my sister but there were not there. Not long, I saw my dad rushing back home with his groceries  on his hands that he bought in the nearby market. “Where are your sisters?” my dad groaned. I stared at the burning house without even have the guts to speak. My dad threw the groceries down onto the ground stomping through the front door without even care about the fire.

       A few minutes later, the place begins to be crowded and I could hear my mom was horning for the people to get away as they are blocking her way. My mom got down from her car and forced her way out from the crowd and the next thing she knew, she fainted the moment she saw her house on fire. The residents around my area carried my mom to shaded area and not long I could hear my dad screaming all the. I could see my two sisters being wrapped with blanket each with them and my dad was carrying both on their waist. My dad was running out for the exit but not long the gas in the kitchen exploded forcing my dad to swing my sisters out. I cried out for my dad because I knew he would not make it out for the exit. Part of the house tumble down leaving him inside the house.

               20 minutes later, the fireman came but it was too late for them to save my dad. All they could do was to put out the fire before it spreads. My sisters were then rushed by the ambulances to the nearest hospital for treatment. They were sent to the Emergency room with 4 doctors and 9 nurses in the room treating them. When my mom regains her consciousness, the 1^st person she spoke was me. She asked me what happen but I was too scared to talk. My mom slapped me on my face and I begin to cry. “ You save your own stuff instead of your sister?” my mom stomped the moment she was me with my ‘Piggy Bank’. “ How selfish and greedy you are! Why do I even give birth to such son like you who only thinks of himself but not others!” my mom sobbed. “ I was standing there crying while wrapping the ‘Piggy Bank’ around my arms.

            2 months later, I change into a new man. The money that I saved in my “Piggy Bank’ was used to pay my sisters medical fees. I told myself that I will not be greedy of something anymore because being greedy makes us forget our root and only concentrate on one thing which we think that give us the most advantage. I even visited my father grave to tell him that ‘I am sorry’ for what I did back there. From there I worked hard to be a fireman in Hong Kong and at the age of 22 I succeeded. I worked as a fireman for 10 years before moving my career to be an actor.  If there is any show or movie that is related to ‘Fireman’. I will be the 1^st one requesting it to be in that show or movie because I will be my best while doing this type of movie. This is due to my experience I had when I was once a fireman! You can check out the latest fireman movie I act that is ‘As the light goes out’. The director and the supervisor told me that I was the 1^st guy ever they see such actor acting so realistic in such movie when we have so much special effect going on! Well I guess that is my story!”

        “ Wow! A touching one though and the right time to share your stories during Chinese New Year! So what is the moral value you learn form those events you had been through before?” Carinne asked. “The moral values I learnt is that money can posses our mind even though it does not have soul. Furthermore, people who are greedy will only get what they want for their own desire but other wont leaving that greedy person alone to work. Greedy gives us nothing except the things we always have in our mind everyday. Being greedy kills us by forgetting who really matters to us. Being greedy only leads you to a path which no one else following you from behind with no support. SO people out there, stop being greedy or you might lose something which you can’t see it right now but later on in life!” Nicholas Tze answered Carinne question. “Great answer and thank you for joining us here today Nicholas Tze!” Carinne said as she shook hand with him. “ Welcome and I am looking forward for your future interview!” Nichloas Tze told Carinne. “ We will call you when we need you!” Carinne replied.

                  “ Once again thank you for watching CNN and make sure to watch ‘ As the light goes out’ which have Nicholas Tze acting in it. Good bye and see you next time! ” Carinne informed the public through CNN. “ Happy Chinese New year!” Carinne and Nicholas Tze greeted to anyone who is watching the live broadcast show and the show ended after they had greeted to whom is watching CNN during that time.
