the 10% that's missing

No I am not talking about tithing.

I am talking about.. my beloved Donald Duck mug.
I am not a big Disney fan but during my high school time,
girls were crazy about 'kertas file', if you know what I mean.
Those papers with nice pictures of Disney characters, Anime characters, etc.
But mostly are Disneys.

so inevitably certain friends would want to share their collections with you.
and they would ask which is your fave Disney character.
and after much thought, I realised that I did like one figure very much.

And that's the unlucky, poor, persistent Donald Duck.

So I got this Donald Duck mug gift from my brother.
And I like it very much.
But I got one problem. I dunno where or how to find a suitable cover and er.. saucer? (alas mskdnya), that complement my mug.

I went to Ikea and they had everything but 'alas'.
And when you drink iced drink, you would realise how troublesome it is without alas.
It's probably just a small part. But it makes a lot of difference.

I think the same goes to a lot of other things in life.
The very thing that separates good from great, and almost-there from actually making it,
is that 10% component.

At times you probably know what is the missing 10%.
but at times.. you just have to figure it out.
So here I am.. needing God's wisdom to figure out that 10% final piece.

journal: a little update

wow I am actually back to this blog. between Apr 27 2018 and now.. what has happened? I officially proposed to my girlfriend (wah.. trust me you gonna miss that word), got married, and.. became a dad. yeah.. all in a matter of less than 2 years. now when you consider the fact that in 2015 I would not have the slightest idea how things would turn out, it just goes to show how life changes in a blink. How is married life? Well.. I am one of those who has pretty pragmatic view when it comes to marriage. I have seen enough to know that relationship is messy. So.. I must say marriage has been way way better than my expectation hah.. For example.. I knew that my wife is a smart woman. I knew some of her shortcoming too.. (and there are some I didn't know till we got married, of course) BUT... here's the big bonus. I didn't know she can be that adorably funny in her own way. Not funny like a standup comedian funny but.. you know.. she makes me laugh. Trust me.

Hmm..

si mahasiswa NTU yg bunuh diri itu denger2 namanya david. sigh.. mgkn final year presssure was too much to him. jadi inget masa2 kerjain final year project, tinggal 3 bulan dan gua maseh blank. untung ngga masuk berita ky dia. life is a funny thing. well since there is a chance that this may not be a simple suicide, lets not assume so. maybe there's a truth behind this. duh.. jd inget kalo di conan trus dia bilank, "ini bukan bunuh diri.. ini adalah kasus pembunuhan!" jadi serasa mao jadi detektip -_-
