WAS IT WORTH IT?

THE SECRET LIFE

Everybody have their own little secrets but probably MJ had more than his share.His whole life was a mystery and his death is now is also enveloped in mystery.Now the news has gone public- he was not the father of his children.I guess his secrets could not be revealed as it would affect his reputation and glory on stage.Although I feel a sense of sadness,I certainly do not envy the way he programmed his life.In my personal opinion,it is not how well you live life,but also how well it ends.Life is something like a wind.Here only for a moment before it moves on.Everybody has to move on,even if the whole world wants us to stay.Death-the only question is-its only sooner or later.

MASKS

The Importance of not letting the Mask fall.Every performer and actor on the crowded stage is wearing a Mask,the feelings and the emotions of the audience only lovingly embrace the Mask - a pleasant,loving an appealling face to show the audience.The real p[ersonality is completely concealed.Should any actor by sheer carelessness or negligence make a Mask fall,a far less than attractice face will be revealed to the crowd- and one that few will forget even after the Mask is restored.Vijay- The Midnight Owl

REST

THIS ARTIST MUST HAVE PAINTED THROUGHOUT THE NIGHT.I SNAPPED THIS PHOTO AT CENTRAL MARKET.I LIKE THIS PLACE BECAUSE THEY ARE VERY FRIENDLY-BUT TODAY THIS GUY HAS GONE TO THE NETHER WORLD. VIJAY

THE COURTROOM

WELCOME TO THE COURTROOM. THIS IS ONE PLACE READERS SHOULD AVOID AL ALL COSTS.IT IS WHERE THE ACCUSED SITS AND STANDS- COMPLETE WITH HANDCUFFS.

THIS IS THE WITNESS STAND.WITNESSES TAKE THE OATH AND THEN,CHURN OUT THEIR CRAP FOR THE DAY.

THIS IS HOW THE INSIDE OF A COURTROOM LOOKS LIKE. ITS FORBIDDEN TO SNAP PHOTOGRAPHS IN HERE. BUT I THINK WHAT IT REALLY MEANS IS THAT YOU CANT TAKE PICTURES WHEN MAHKAMAH SEDANG BERSIDANG.I SURE HOPE NOT TO SEE YOU HERE SOMEDAY!! VIJAY.

ASLI-VILLAGE-3-JINNS FLOWER.

THE NEST VILLAGE IS A 2 HOUR TREK FROM HERE.BUT RIGHT NOW THIS GUY HAS GOT TO STAY HOME.

THIS IS MR.HANDSOME OF THE JUNGLE.HE IS SURE TO BE A FAVOURITE WITH THE LADIES THERE IN TIME TO COME.

THIS IS THEIR LANDED PROPERTY.THE SCENE HERE HAS HARDLY CHANGED IN 20 YEARS.HOPEFULLY THE LITTLE GUY IN THE BACK WILL HAVE A NEW WAY OF THINKING.


BELOW THESE STRANGE PLANTS ARE THE GRAVE OF THE ASLI ANCESTORS.THERE IS ALSO A PENJAGA HERE BUT HE JUST LOOKED SILENTLY AT ME FROM THE TREETOP.

MY JINN,EL-RAK-RIMAU WANTED THIS FLOWER.I DON'T KNOW WHY HE LOVES THE SMELL OF THIS FLOWER SO MUCH.IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT,HE WILL JUST SAY"TERIMA KASIH TUAN". AT LEAST IT IS BETTER THAN THE PREVIOUS 'TERIMA KASIH SAYAAAAANG" VIJAY- THE MIDNIGHT OWL

ASLI VILLAGE-2

YOUNG AND OLD- ALL HAVE TO SHARE THE COMMUNITY'S RESPONSIBILITIES.NO SITTING BEFORE THE TV AND EXPECT TO BE LAYAN!!


THIS IS AN ASLI DARLING COLLECTING FIREWOOD FOR PREPARING THE FAMILY DINNER.SHE WILL ALSO HELP OUT IN THE KITCHEN.

THIS IS ANOTHER DARLING,HOLDING A BAMBOO RAT.IT USUALLY LANDS UP INTO THE COOKING POT BUT THIS LADY TREATED THIS BAMBOO RAT AS A PET.THERE IS NO WAY SHE WILL PART WITH IT.

THIS IS THEIR KITCHEN-SEPERATE FROM THE MAIN HALL.THEY DON'T HAVE ANY MODERN CONVENIENCES BUT THEIR COMMUNITY IS TIGHTLY WOVEN TOGETHER AND THE FAMILY EATS ALL THEIR MEALS TOGETHER.

VISITING AN ASLI VILLAGE

THIS IS GOING TO BE ONE LONG DRIVE INTO THE JUNGLE. BY THE TIME WE REACH THERE USUALLY ALL OUR BONES ARE OUT OF JOINT.

THIS IS MY ORANG ASLI SON. HE HAS NOT SEEN A TV YET OR A CAR. LIFE HERE IS UNCORRUPTED BY THE CITY LIFE.


THE ORANG ASLIS ARE SCATTERED THROUGHOUT THE JUNGLES OF MALAYSIA.I VISIT THEM NOW AND THEN.THIS IS A REALLY ISOLATED VILLAGE DEEP IN THE JUNGLE,

A MAD DRIVE

THE GREAT LESSON

IF YOU ARE INTO SOMETHING BIG,AND YOU REALLY DONT KNOW THE NEW FACES AROUND YOU AND THEY HAVE NOT SHOWN YOU THEIR TRUE COLOURS YET,AND THEY ARE MORE THAN ANXIOUS TO KNOW THE CARDS WE ARE HOLDING,THEN YOU MUST DECEIVE THEIR EARS AND THEIR EYES.BE FRIENDLY,YET INWARDLY ALOOF.THEY WILL BURY US ALIVE WHILE PORTRAYING SMILING INNOCENT FACES.THESE ARE NOT FRIENDS. THEY ARE DEVOURING WOLVES AND MASTERS AT CONCEALING THEIR SCHEMINGS AND THEIR TRACKS.ITS NO USE COMPLAINING ABOUT THESE PEOPLE-MUCH BETTER TO KNOW THE ESSENCE OF THE GAME AND - JOIN IT.

BUSINESS PARTNER

THIS IS A PICTURE OF THE LAST BUSINESS PARTNER I HAD.LIFE IS FULL OF LESSONS AND UNFORTUNATELY, SOME OF THE BEST LESSONS YOU LEARN FROM THOSE WHO HANG AROUND YOU WITH THEIR SMILING FACES WHILE SABOTAGING US BEHIND THE SCENES. VIJAY- THE MIDNIGHT OWL

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY

Now let us assess the situation.If you ever want to live a peaceful life,then you got to mind your own business and live your own life. This may not sound spiritual but it certainly is practical.True-all of us had our bad seasons,which sometimes are impossible to forget.Rather than fretting,we have to face the fact that it was our own stupidity and vulnerablity that we got creamed.There are many profound lessons to be learnt by the fires that burnt us.Determine not to cave in.And dont be deceived and fall for the sureness of an unchanging relationship. Even long time couples decide to part ways.Remember- nothing lasts forever- everything changes. Vijay- The Midnight Owl

MEETING CLIENTS

This is the home of a Corporate Client- I call her Datin. She really has some very fabulous furniture. She has been around the world and today as a gift she gave me a stone from Afghanistan and a sarong!!! Vijay

P.S. Can you see the dark figure in the mirror? Thats the spiritual "penjaga" of the house!!It is a female intense shadow and has very long hair.Its home is on the other side of the mirror.

MT .KINABALU

This is Mount Kinabalu.People all over the world come to ascend this mountain.I doubt if I can climb this mountain again.Do you see the scratch marks on the rock behind me? Do you think the winds did that? Not possible in a million years. Vijay- The Midnight Owl

THE ABOMINABLE SNOWMAN

Nobody believed in the Abominable Snowman until someone snapped this photo somewhere in the desolate regions of Alaska.Centuries of myths were dashed by this piece of evidence.But the disappointing thing is that -many thought that the abominable snowman was white.Researchers were disappointed that he has actually dark brown skin with flashy white teeth!! The creature ran away into the snow before they could snap another photo. Vijay- The Midnight Owl

CHINA

This is Kwang- Tung, China in the late 80's.I saw many bicycles while I was there and they stared at me like I was a Kentucky Fried Chicken.It was quite an experience strolling through the streets being the only Malaysian. But I think times have changed now. Vijay- The Midnight Owl

NEW YORK CITY

Welcome to New York City.I have been here many times.Besides the helicopter ride, the bus ride is fun too.There are so many nice places to eat here in NYC!!Live your life,love your life!! Vijay- The Midnight Owl
