When You Wish Upon A Star....

Remember the familiar tune from Disney?

"When you wish upon a star, and no matter where you are, when you wish upon a star you wish comes true..."

I bet we all had our wish when we were little. Whether is about the cute guy sitting across you in your class to speak to you, or maybe a birthday gift, or even getting flying colors for your exam...

And i bet out of all these wishes, we as Malaysian must have had wished for snows, autumnsand winters in the country when we were younger. We dreamt of waking up seeing snow flying around in the air and that we have a chance to ski or just wearing some nice winter fashions.

I guess we all dreamt and wished that when we were younger because it seems like a fantasy, because we didnt know about the consequences that will fall upon us if that happened, because we were not that aware and did not understand about science and the environment. Because we were young and naive.

Why am i rattling about all these? Because i had a panic attack few days ago right before bed time. The reason? Well i was watching Cnn and Al Jazeera news. The news were filled with man made disasters from the oil spills in Gulf and China to the wars in Afghanistan and weather disasters from around the globe. While the Europeans are suffering from the scorching sun and the unbearable heats, Asia continents such as Thailand and China are having storms. Weather has became so extreme and weird that they do not look logical anymore! And that panicked me.

Sometimes i tried to console myself by telling myself that the world's weather has been so for thousand of years. The only reason it look so frequent now is because with the latest technology we have, we are able to communicate more efficiently now than ever. Hence we are able to see how the world is doing compared to our ancestors.

I am not really a firm believer in end of the world. I guess everyone will die, sooner or later. So that is no point fearing about dying in the coming future when you should just live your life to your fullest everyday, make sure that you have no regrets in the future. But when you are overwhelmed by all the disasters and bad news for more than 30 minutes a day, they will get into your head and you will panic, just like me.

That is why i mentioned earlier, a girl could only watch and read heavy stuff for that long and then must be fill by gossips, fashions, blings blings and cosmetic for her to be less bitchy..

So be careful of what you wished upon a star or you might regret it later... haha
