MY BLUE HEAVEN


When Whippoor-whills call
And evening is nigh
I hurry to

My Blue Heaven

A turn to the right
a little white light
will lead you to
My Blue Heaven

You'll see a smiling face, a fireplace a cozy room
A little nest that's nestled where the roses bloom

Just Mollie and me and baby makes three
we're happy in

My Blue Heaven

1923 George Whiting / Walter Donaldson


Ever since Man left the Garden of Eden, he -- and his Mate2, She ? -- has been trying very hard to get back to that elusive garden on earth. Desiderata calls this search THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS, which had been well expounded by writers and philosophers through the ages.

When I started this Blog exactly a year ago, my intention was to first expand my own writing horizon. But I am always one proud to go about the things I do the Scientific Method. Hence, I often tell my Y&A visitors to give Da Rationale, mousey-one also can! :)

I approach my Posts like an everyday experiment on glimpses of LIFE, zeroed in via my three broad objectives of:
* Desiderata.Civil Society
* Desiderata.Truth
* Desiderata.English.

Desiderata.English won me my first mGf via Blogsworld, with a "delighted ", in her own word, fan, yan, from nigh-Catsville, I often teAse her. Yes, I assured this maiden visitor from yan's corner - in touch that if there remaineth jest ONE VISITOR to desiderata-ylchong, this scribe would go on Posting. I know ssssspirit is always the hi-spiriteD voyager to Desi's Place too, hence the game to nama that idealistic OUR I-LAND.

If anyone thinks Blogging is not profiteering, oopoops, profitable, Desi says Thy art wlong!
From my second month, I began to earn some moola from writing for Borneo Post, plagiarising some unpolished gems from Desiderata.English! Is that the rite word -- steAling blooms from one's own work, varnished with some flowers from my neighbour's?

Ne'er mind-lah somedays I could not deliver -- it's okay to take a hiatus some times, as I tell fellow Bloggers: Take a break, Yes, go breAk a leg, Not two-lah!
I seldom venture into Religion, God and Death unless absolutely necessary because I truly feel unequipped. But sometimes I like to join my philosopher writer friends like Voltaire, Thoreau and Descartes to try to fathom What's Truth? Tied closely with such adventures is the quest for that elusive thing called Happiness. Perhaps Love.
In recent months, I had adapted Sunday's desiderata.english rumination to INTER:LUDE as I had to go on a hiatus on Desiderata.English which really had taxed Desi's small mind a 'ite too much. Getting exhasuted, so it's a getaway to mGf blogs to "steal" some GEMS, BLOOMS, and NUTGIFTS?, whatever.

I ran a ChallengiA lust weak for my ER to gas what's up coming wedNURSEdae?
ANSWER: Voila! Wella! desiderata-ylchong has a new look.
My quest continues -- for Happiness, Truth and Friendship, at My Blue Heaven...


All credit, honour, drum roll, trumpet sound -- for mGf, yes, again and with more returns of the day, PHYLLIS WONG, out of nigh Catsville, who brings cheers, and Oh dear!, to every nook and corner she ventures into. Wetlands, drylands, Hi & Hello land.:)
Desi is truly delighted to join her, and five others, for an impromptu GSE7EN MEET lust night at Mid-Valley at one cowboy's corner to celebrate -- her marketeering peak, and Desi's profiteering block! Also the eve of better things to come, gr8things to cum -- Ides of March, ''member?

May I welcome the Other delegates -- kyels, imran, johnlee, yvonnefoong and fishtail -- to add their accolades to the Lad' born on a Fridae, from http://yancorner.blogspot.com/
Fool of Love and Gifting...
mGf, oh,oh SE7EN.


One fine morn
Ides of March, 200S'X.

It was great meeting the gal from Catsville, the guy from Blue Heaven, the other gal from Robin Hood's Uni and the young fella who's driving his dreams, for the first time; with 2 people trying hard to prevent 200 people from getting wet in Bolehland, which is second worst to being tied to a post at 4 pm while watching the SS Virgo slides out to sea.

This morning at 5:45 am I "boarded" a taxi. I said I wanted to go to Sentral, he said RM12. I was about to say RM10, he persuaded to go all the way to KLIA at RM70. I was also about to say "No", he said RM60 and begged me to give him business.

So, we chatted. Hey, he worked in Super Virgo before! So, I imagined myself in Super Virgo all the way to KLIA. He told me stories after stories of Super Virgo, Libra, SARS in HK ....

I almost think it was fishhead, oh no, fishtail of Himalaya lah.

I am way ahead...

chong y l said...

hi yan hello A'most-GalNextDoor:

Oh is that so?
You're ahead. Not fishtail.
Did you ask taxi driver to arrange
For a fishy 80% discount
off Virgo's cruise fare for Bloggers?

Two are writers hence paupers you no
fishtail and I
You're not scribe more a marketeer
Maybe we'll adapt work as sailor
Four dies, three nites, we'll get by
But make sure you pilate the way rite
We dowan stranded on the SEVEN SEAS
in the middle of the nite

NB: kyels may scream
yvoonne may make do with icrecream
but bro imran would jest create a mutiny
and below age of COnsent johnlee
may not get to become DPM his destiny

PS: Does BPost have a vacancy for BestSteak&Tastes Reviewer, ah?

fishtail said...

Yan, for you to meet an ex-Virgo person less than 12 hours after meeting a hard-core Virgo one speaks loads. There's no way now that you're not going on board. Here's the good news: Star Cruises is offering buy-1-free-1 for the Virgo in conjunction with Matta Fair. So, you bring one more head, Desi brings the 'Tail and we've got a Bloggers' Din on the Virgo!

NU'E HEAVEN ... I hope it won't become a NUDE HEAVEN. Haha. Just kidding. But really, the template is nice and I love the NU'E HEAVEN.

And when are we going to buy our Spirit Destination?

Helen said...

My fren in fesyenland?? ** scratch head **

“For this reason anyone who speaks in a tongue should pray that he may interpret what he says” (1 Corinthians 14:13).

You speaking in tongues again??? Haiyah, do i need to find interpreter?? lol

fishtail:

now we must hi-jack Virgo at all cost
mayhaps stowAway like one fishtail
Yan gave thee away pulling at thy head

Desi's now like one tied to the pole
watching golfden streaks of red, orange and gold
oh heavenly de light
stolen by a fleeting Virgin
leaving bloggers a-Daze,
kyels is o'lay in the Maze
and soon all of us will go Amiss in the Haze

BlAme it on fistail with all his 'air
you get us 100% discount at d'Matta Fair


PS: Goode nu'es is that Yan and Desi have arranged for A Catsville Festival in Kuching in 200SE7EN where Faith Hill and significant Other Tim McGwrol will attend, with many rockers from Nashille, Wait&SEE!

Oh, helenAllOfThee2,

I was referring to preceding branded "FashionAsia" chic'
She says Desi's going round the bush
I looked in da mirror to check my tongue
I spiak, I rite Steal she insists
Most times I'm spaeking in tongue
or GRIK!
And now you're supporting womankind!
A gender war may breAk out, that I mind-
So o'Lad'es, give Desi a breAk!

chong y l said...

kyels:

please don't make Desi dat emperor
Shy-one, no platinum robe
Nor in hand goblet of gold
Oh. olde, be-HOLD!

In MP suit, overdressed
In birddae suit, underdressed
Or no, not in doctor's NO!
Dat's 4 Ursula, Undress'd
