I Am Accepting Of...

The things I can't change as much as I would like to.

The people I can't care for as much I would desire to.

The circumstances that were against me, or were in my favor.

The very body God gave me when I was born in this world.

I love my Life! <3

Ah Ma RIP

My beloved Ah Ma (Mom's side) passed away earlier this morning.

Dear Ah Ma, we will never forget the love, affection and tenderness you showed us all from birth to adulthood, you are always the Ah Ma we love and still love.

RIP.

Love, your family.

Katy Perry's Fireworks, It Does Mean Something

Katy Perry's Fireworks caught my eyes and ear on Youtube 1 year ago, till now the lyrics and the tune are still deep inside my mind.

They really do speak for me and a lot of people out there too.

We all felt like a plastic bag, used and tossed around now and then.
We all felt like we needed to be more perfect in our looks, our size, our hair even.

That's why every single person born in this earth is unique and individual.

As much as I can do plastic surgery to become a clone of Rain or Siwon, I can't change my voice, my mannerisms, my habits, my identity.

As much as I can lose 10 kg off my weight, get a 6 pack, get a buzz cut, I can't change my skin color, my tastes in life.

Its easy for us all to gossip about the celebrity (male or female) who had a lip tucked, a stomach flattened, boob size enhanced and more but lets face it, we are just plain jealous deep inside.

MapleStory Legends: Bishop Please!

Many friends have asked me questions relating to the Bishop in Maplestory, with so many changes since Big Bang to Jump/Ascension for the previously "buff-only" bishop, this is the all new Bishop guide for Bishops who love and want to go bossing often SOLO.

Equipment:
1.) Concentrate on pure INT only equipment wherever possible (as you will be going pure INT for the awesome bossing damage, the higher amount of MP won't hurt either), even though the new MA formula factors in LUK as well, pure INT will still overpower the rest.
2.) Elemental wands and staves can be used by Bishops in MapleSEA as far as I know.
#Thankfully for MapleSEA players, we have the onyz, bronze and gold source weapons requiring 0 stats to equip.
3.) Aim for earrings, capes, shields with % INT stats under the potential stats usually those being 6%, 9% or more.
4.) Aim for shoulderpads (120 and above)
5.) Aim for Chaos Horntail Necklace/MoN

Stats to add:
Just add  all of your AP into INT all the way.

Skills to max:
Cleric - Heal, Bless, Teleport, High Wisdom, Invincible, Spell Mastery, MP Eater
Priest - Dispel, Mystic Door, Holy Symbol, Shining Ray, Holy Focus, Holy Magic Shell, Teleport Mastery, Booster
Bishop - Angel Ray, Bahamut, Infinity, Ressurection, Advanced Blessing, Arcane Aim, Buff Mastery, Maple Warrior (Priority is to max first Angel Ray, Arcane Aim, Advanced Blessing, Bahamut and Infinity to solo bosses ASAP once you have advanced to the Bishop.)

Skills for the Bishop that do not need to be maxed:
1.) Genesis - the 30 second cooldown still makes it not so trigger happy
2.) Big Bang - rendered more useless now after the changes made in Jump/Ascension

Potions recommended for 120 and above:
Ginger Ales, Elixirs, Power Elixirs

Buff Potions recommended:
Wizard Elixir, Chicken Soup, Onyx Apple, Energy Drink

Complementary buffs:
Angelic Blessing Ring's Archangel, Dark Angelic Blessing Ring's Darkarchangel, Meditation, Maple Warrior

Bosses very suitable for soloing:
Scarlion, Targa - Level 130 and above
Papulatus - Level 125 and above
Zakum - Level 130 and above
Samurai - Level 110 and above
Angeo - Level 120 and above

Thankfulness!

I am thankful the sun rises and sets without question.
I am thankful the moon still glows unfailingly at night without question.
I am thankful McDonald's is still open and their Fillet O Fish never runs out.

What are some other things that we can be thankful for?
I've heard that the Japanese get up in the mornings and face the rising sun to give thanks.

Perhaps our busy lives in this modern world make us too caught up.
Yes, everyone take someone for granted now and then without question too.

Give thanks for the auntie who sells your favourite bee hoon every morning without fail even though she is groucy.
Give thanks for the uncle who delivers your newspaper to your household every morning without fail even though you do not see him in the action.

Milo's A Good Drink & So Is Coke

The reason or reasons why I've deactivated my main Facebook account and left the other inactive won't be revealed unless someone asks me.

All right.

Talking about drinks, Milo has always been my favourite from young. Be it hot or iced cold, it still tastes awesome. Coke (or Coca Cola) has also been my favourite from my teenage years. I never knew they sold Chocolate Coke in the US! *Gasps*

Isn't it an awesome combination? Chocolate Coke? I can die for it drinking gallons everyday *Smiles*

How about some local combinations for Coke? Like... Milo Coke anyone? Do people still remember the now defunct Cherry Coke and Vanilla Coke? I miss them.

Things Never Made Sense And Never Will

I love my friends and closed ones fiercely, not liking when they are put down by others. Even though most of them do not understand why or what I do or did, it all doesn't matter. If I keep thinking daily why did this friend or that closed friend not understand I am already being tormented adding on to the tremendous stress on my already weakened physical body.

Why is life this way? Why am I being treated this way? Why won't they share their lives with me more?

These 3 questions will never get a satisfactory answer. Why? What right do I have to make each and every person revolve his/her world around me? What right do I have to demand people? What right do I have to want to know each and everything about everyone?

The same goes for myself, why should I keep tormenting myself this way? Etc etc.

Let go, let it all go Daniel Yoleh Chang Wei. I trust in Him, when I am fitting on my bed, on the train, in the shopping center, He is my Refuge, my Strength, my Salvation, my Love and my Protector.

God is good. Praise the Lord. Amen.

Less Of Self Self Self...

Dear friends and family, with regards to my health and mental well-being I'll be cutting down drastically on online gaming and social network activities such as Facebook and such.

But no worries, this blog is still my way of connecting and sharing my life with you.

If you would like to know more about my past video logs on Youtube, go to youtube.com/DanielCow

I'm pondering whether to do video logs again, time shall tell.

If I Ran This Country, What?

I would do away with the "Giving Singaporeans Tax" Tax and replace it with "Reducing Singaporeans Tax" Tax.

I would do away with the GRCs, SMCs and replace them all with a SSC (Singaporeans Singapore Constituency).

I would do away with no cycling on pedestrian lanes. You would rather let cyclists kena langga by qia?

I would do away with the boring parliament sessions and replace it with a real "Live" one with no chairs.

I would do away with useless statistics and boring numbers which completely is of no relevance to anyone.

What's With Us People Nowadays?

If you are THAT insecure about others' achievements, WORK YOUR ASS off and make something you are proud of in future. Why dwell on what you do not have now?

If you are THAT selfish to not think of peoples' feelings and only want people to think of yours, why should they?

And to end this blog post, the next time before you think its all cool to make fun of people for their weaknesses to all your friends? You are just an ASS.

My Special Ladies

(This blog post is just for you two.)

We started off in that Lecture Theatre on a hot sunny day at Nanyang Polytechnic, April 2008.

We became group members for our very first Polytechnic project group work.

You all visited me when I was gone for a semester.

You all helped me when my giddiness got worse and worse.

I'll remember the last day we were in school before I began my super-duper long MC.

I'm glad we have Facebook to chat in.

And of course, who can forget the Banana, Sausage Lips, Big Neh Neh, Pregnant But Not, Backstabber, Bodybuilder & most of all, the one who eats pasta with friends every week and has 1000000TB of data at his house.

Looking Back, I Turned My Head Back

What's the point of thinking and remembering people who don't remember a single thing about you except your name of course. No point at all.

You are living in pain for them and they are happily living away their lives with you not in sight nor in detail.

Live life not empty, live life not full but live life with content. <== 2012 Motto anyone?

I am Contented because I have.
I am Contented because I need.
I am Contented because I like.

Its Really Hurting But Oh Well, MOVE IT :)

Beginning of This New Blog, Hello 2012 Again.
As a reminder to myself of the asses who made 2012 start on a painful note:
To that northern former acquaintance and some of his ass friends, a big thank you for letting me know you are such asses.

Goodbye Old Flame.
I was glad I followed my buddy over to a new game, a world completely different and apart from my old flame - MapleStory or to be specific, MapleSEA.

MapleSEA has finally done what it had had never done before, squashed my last hopes for a better gaming environment for the game I have played from 2006 till now.

Hello DragonNestSEA and byebye MapleSEA.

My Family and Friends.
Edel and Ting Ting, Chu Ying, Lay Leng, Teck Seng and Adeline, Cindy and Mike, Aileen, Jia Wei, Hyun Jun, Leon, Zhao Lun, Grandma, Mom and Dad, Sis, Uncle Andy and Auntie Christine, Auntie Kia Ngoh, Huimin and countless others.

I'm honest here, I'm trying to not bawl my eyes out. 2010 - 2011 have been the most painful years of my life.
