Mirror of Erised

Dear muggle friends,

If you want to know someone personally, then it is quite important that you should know what his or her dreams and desire.

In the magical world, there is one magical object that could reflecting your hearts’ desire, it’s:

 

The Mirror of Erised

(erised stra ehru oyt ube cafru oyt on wohsi)

(i show not your face but your hearts’ desire)

 

On this mirror Mr. Potter seeing his parents and his relatives smiling with him, and Mr. Ronald Weasley seeing himself as a head boy and quidditch captain holding a quidditch cup.

So dear muggle friends, what wisdom in the mirror of erised projection that we could synthesize?

Well perhaps quite a lot…

‘it shows nothing more or less than the deepest, most desperate desire of our hearts’ 

-- Professor Dumbledore--

Let’s examine the glimpse examples of the above:

Mr. Potter quite longed for a warm and loving family, as a child he never had the ‘luxury’ of having a normal loving family (that’s why Mrs. Weasley sometimes shed tears whenever she gazed at young and skinny Mr. Potter) 

And it shows in the aftermath that what really matters to Mr. Potter is what matter for his lovely family; he’s become a good family man.

In the second case Mr. Ronald Weasley is the youngest son of the notable Weasley   
family, his older brothers already marked accomplishments within their years in and after Hogwarts before him: Mr. William Weasley was a prefect & head boy and have a career at the Gringotts bank, Mr. Charlie Weasley was a champion quidditch team captain and has a natural expertise with magical creatures, Mr. Percy Weasley was also a prefect & head boy and a sharp Ministry employee, Mr. Fred & George Weasley were really good beaters at the quidditch field, brilliant inventors, cherished friends and also great businesspersons.

Perhaps Mr. Ronald Weasley like the idea to be acknowledged that he’s one of the great Weasleys, and not just the ordinary one that happened to befriend with the famous Mr. Potter (eventually Mr. Ronald Weasley live happily with his brainy family)

Did you notice that your dreams & desire could tell a lot about yourself?

What? You want to know my dreams & desire?

Hmmm… it’s a secret!

But maybe you could ask my wife and kids then, they know my dreams & desire as I know theirs as well 

 

Best regards,

Fellow human

The Spark

Ah… another electronic gadget jammed!

the electrostatic discharge from my body jammed the tiny microchips again!

my victim list: Nokia 6210 jammed and survive, Sony Ericsson K750i jammed and wasted, Nokia 6233 jammed and survive, Pentax A30 jammed and still under repair

Have you ever jolted by a door handle? Or by metal railings?

Try rubbing your feet on a wool carpet then zap anyone with electrostatic discharge from your finger

All of us have some kind of electromagnetic field around our body, and in some particular circumstances this electric potential became unstable and releases or absorbs electrical currents to and from other objects

In some people (well maybe I’m one of them) this phenomenon are more intense

It’s our human electricity that occurred

So when you’re holding someone you love and she said ‘darling your touch is so electric to me…!’ don’t take it as 100% figurative, perhaps it’s also have some literal meaning he3x

Because maybe it’s also physics not just chemistry that happens between the opposite sexes

Strawberry Cheesecakes vs. Blueberry Cheesecakes

I find it difficult to really identified or pinpointing which cheesecake I like the most

Traditionally I prefer the blueberries better than the strawberries,
because I thought the strawberries are more sour than the blueberries
(but the strawberries are definitely more beautiful eh?)
then I decided to match them all at once this Sunday ;-)
the contenders're came from two well known & quite similar cake shops:
The Cheesecake Factory and The Harvest

4 of them are ready for the test:

I took the scoops carefully one by one sequentially

but after a second round of the scoops
I think I lost track there
of which taste belongs to which cheesecake :D

so at the end the verdict is....:
I still don't really know which cheesecake is my favourite!
I just love them all! :D
hmmm... what? you think it's not quite important?
(=iya yah ga penting banget dey! he3x)

Last Night's Dinner

Maybe attracted by the discount promotion from a credit card issuer
so I tried the menu that I never ordered before, but it's just so-so

I recall the chicken wings were quite tasty here, the chocolate thunder was so yummy, and they have ribs and rib-eye steaks with generous portions, also delightful vegetables sauce :-)

.

Today's Lunch

the sambal terasi (terasi/belacan chili paste) price here is higher
than the plain ice tea and plain white rice combined (both are refillable)

but it's really ok, & I think I'm really addicted to chili and its' derivatives ;-)

.

Sensitive

I had to see a doctor last Monday (for minor injury that gets a bit complicated caused by a ‘heroic’ self-operation cutting a papilla trunk from my wrist with a thread)

My doctor pre-examine the wound at the waiting couch (because she has three other patients at the examining rooms) then put a lotion over that wound and said ‘this is anesthetic lotion, it will numb your skin while I’m burning it to remove the remain of the papilla, and the longer it applied the better the anesthetic works’

Later in the examining room she gets her tool (the tool to burn my wound of course, what do you think?) and said that she’ll check my sensitivity first with that tool

But what do you know, after around 20 minutes that anesthetic lotion applied on my wound, I still could feel those electric sparkles zapping my skin

She’s concern with my sensitivity and immediately injects an ample of anesthetic solution on my wrist to double the numbing effect, then continue zapping my wound

But even after that I still could feel vaguely when those electric sparkles dancing on my burned skin

So at that point I’m convinced that I really am a sensitive type of person…

Literally…

 

(Hmmm… as a sensitive person I think I could detect the slightest change of tone in someone’s mind without vividly realize what that person thinking anyway)
