as the saying goes, curiosity killed the cat... don't know exactly which cat it is referring to (hopefully none of mine ^_-), but surely enough, curiosity had certainly sculptured my life's path...
the Almighty had bestowed me with bright brain when i was a kid... high level of curiosity had driven me to seek whatever knowledge or information that are available around me... with help and guidance from my beloved parents and sister, i was able to read when i was about 3... and before i was 4, i was able to recognize and memorize many well known public figure and great leaders such as Margaret Thatcher, Corazon Aquino, Rajiv Gandhi and some local ministers... i am curious to know on what's happening and who's who in the world... although i do watch cartoons and read comics, but i really love to watch news and read newspapers... for me, it's kinda weird for a 4 year old kid, but that was me, really...
when i was a kid, my abah brings me everywhere, especially when there will also be some prominent faces present... if i'm not mistaken, i was spotted by a reporter while i was reading a newspaper in some occasion in Raub... and he asked me "tengok gambar ke, dik?"... and i replied "tak lah, baca berita..." he just laugh, but as soon as i read every single word in the news, he stopped laughing and took me seriously... so the first interview started, and by april 1987, my story was published in a few local newspapers and i was also a guest in Selamat Pagi Malaysia...
curiosity continues to accompany me to my schooldays... being in a chinese primary school feeds my hunger for new things to learn, especially in language and culture... but in the same time, my curiosity started to harm me... i started smoking at a very young age, which i regretted very much... and i was also into shoplifting... thank god i never got caught... somehow curiosity had ignited me to do these things... but i do not solely blame it on curiosity, me myself is also guilty for whatever i was becoming then...
what i am trying to say is, we do need curiosity in our life... but what's really important is how and where we channel it... i had some up and downs in my life, and i've learnt my lesson the hard way...
