Carol Beer





She's by far my most favourite character from LB. A nonchalant nutcracker. And it'd have been better if you just tickle me to death than watching her in action.

well...

Too bad computer says noooo *in your feeblest and flattest descending tone*

Obsesion

High tea. Coffees. Cupcakes. Trinkets. Theme. LOMO Embassy! Artsy-fartsy. Creativities. DIYs. Sandwiches.

This is one of the best hide out places during your laid back class-out weekday afternoon.

Though their cupcakes are mediocre only (i personally don't favour cupcakes so yeah)...too sweet, overpriced, bad for teeth, diabetic and whatnot.

What's best? For anti-social's and misfit like me, chances of bumping into people that you do not wish to see at that hour/place are astronomical (not anymore now that i've disclosed its whereabout). Pricing is reasonable in its kind. Food wise, not many varieties. It's the atmosphere that counts afterall.

This motherfucking piece of paper will determine my life in next 10 years

Yeah right, I've heard what you said. Say it again la if you dare! Just tell me in face that the man's hands are freaking cacat to the point that they look like some burned plastic coated in dirty wax and then the scaling/depth/volume/ALL also problematic! Eh I spent few hours on those 8 phallic fingers itself! The hands are cued in from another photo thus the huge contrast and disparity between the face and hands and I couldn't render it my way by standardizing the colour of hands and face simply because I had to mematuhi principle of photographic Realism not Expressionism! I could only draw what I saw on those cut out photo references. Sad. I know my skill is only run of the mill mah compared to those full fledged art major students but can't you just get a life and stop your badmouthing?

I actually rectified the right hand's fingers prior to submission so this is a piece of retrospective work only la. And then it doesn't look that shit like in real life trust me seriously ok Ok OK? I know you will. I'm gifted. I'm artsy fartsy! Fuck you.

Alright the main point of posting this painting is for commemoration purpose since it sorta became a milestone in my life haha. My drawing is very teruk wan la since primary always get below B grade and never once 贴堂 before but I think my teachers used them for different purposes instead such as means of keeping devils away?

But seriously la it does look better in real life without those hands.

T.T

Sneezes ands smokes

The weather has been hostile lately, it will just stop the kick whenever I feel like doing some solitary activities such as jogging in the park or whatever. Gym room kinda unfit nowadays just because it's so packed and smelly. I especially hate the humid atmosphere and pungent sweat smell inside. But well jogging in park makes me feel like bird! My pores are clog free thanks to all the phytoncideres permeating around by our friendly greeneries. Although I still can't get over how they plot the story in The Happening, how can trees communicate with each other to wage vendetta against humans? They are little harmless creatures only ma. Oh well. Anyways, I can run like 3 laps off the perimeter on the jogging track which stretched like 2 km for each complete lap non stop! What a great achievement since I was then accustomed to running on flat treadmill all the while. Now I know why is it so great about turun padang haha. But I'm still not up to the point to challenge 42 km course since it requires an average of at least 5 hours to finish the track which is impossible to me at the moment, I'll prolly turn into dry corpse at the finishing line. So I still need time to contemplate whether or not to take up the 42 km Penang Bridge Marathon few weeks later or just join the rest for self-surrendered 10 km marathon-turned-leisure-walk for fun. Dunno la. Since the start up very mafan, needs power gel, muscles rub and a lot of equipments or else stamina is not gonna fall from the sky or pop up from rocks beside the roads.

Oh yea, almost finished my studio assignment! This time is for real although the hands part abit cacated but then Mr. Bad said it is of good painting quality overall except for the lack of colour variety. Nail it and stop beating around the bush, I don't like fanciful/colourful drawing mainly because I wanna make my life easier and how many colours do we need for painting human itself? The more the merrier meh? It's not like our complexion change according to temperature or what. I'm applying the great theory of Expressionism like it or not, I'm still gonna do it MY WAY. Bummer. I'm contented and shut the fuck up give me an A that's it.

My sister is thinking of joining me for the holy tour kut! Probably la. But still it will do me a lot easier to get through all the permits and stuffs relating paperworks which really worse than Uni application can you believe? Kudos to the ever conservative and self preserved government.

Gotta do up all my ejercicios now lest I will be condemned by Andres again cos normally I would complete all the homeworks he gave promptly except for the last lesson owing to effing Art's midterm la cb. Then he started using all those satiric remarks on me already. Puki. Dunno la I'm always blur out in his class when he call out my name to answer some ser/estar pertaining question. Damn mafan can.

This Friday will be deadline for studio's, term paper and next week will be conclusion's due date. All's well ends well before final and after final I will be drowning with whole lotta application stuffs, TOEFL, shopping for necessities and so on. Not forgetting montañoso of vacation calls from kengkawan!

In short I got so little time on hand but yet I'm still not doing anything productive at the moment. Sien.

And is it me alone or what but I think Rasta's shishas are overrated to max! I just tried that damn saccharified Sugus flavour and wtf it tasted like fish tank water in grape syrup. All the lolly flavours are seriously not my stuffs cos I prefer typical double apples mint and cherry mint. At least they don't give perk of sugar rush. Have you people tried Singgahselalu's? Rip off price at its highest quality! Down 3 rounds still can produce puff-ful of fully flavoured cloudy smoke and I've never once inhaled charcoal tainted tobacco in my history with Singgahselalu...each and every inhale is pleasurable. You know right it's damn potong stim when the inhaling process is dry like your lung is gonna dehydrate and explode but not at Singgahselalu (it's in JB la) *beams in pride*. What's best is, each hookah (large) only cost RM 13! How to find such price in high inflation bound Klang Valley? Even that sugar coated rubber taste like Big Apple doughnuts is charging RM 11.50 for 1/2 dozen nowadays. Holy shitake, RM 1.70 of increment!

Ok ok, nuff for non sensical rantings, adios.

(insert wrathful title here)

Having super bad mood now.

Let me share a tip for having good grade in your exam :

1. Bring along your self made notes (must be palm sized) or,

2. Peep at your friend's answers or,

3. Take your friend's answer sheet over altogether and copy as if invigilators are made from air.

And that is how some people here getaway with having high GPA and really good CGPA for few semesters consistently.

Can you believe it?

Half of the class was doing it, but being the honest one (please i'm being serious ok?), I didn't.

Therefore, my midterm 2's result ranked at the bottom half.

So I skipped my official last class today off the timetable simply because I hate to interact with those hypocrites. With all the pores choking plasticy smiles plastered all over your face while you carefully filter out every single word you use before these people for the remaining days is merely making endurance, of pain and stress. Do you think it's fun this way just for fuck's sake of being all diplomatic?

There are 3 more unofficial extra classes for that demonic subject to attend ranging from this week to next week just because the underestimation of our ingenious lecturer. I'm gonna treat it as a test of elasticity of my endurance, how far I can pull through.

I seriously don't hate this subject as much as I hate those people who involve in it.

Time to squeeze out my last effort for coming final in less than 2 weeks time.

Art is fun.

I'm glad it will all be over soon.

Tuesday, October 14, 2008

Because I'm sad

as per the title,

i suddenly hit myself that,

what if,

the domino effect of...

anything below 'A' for Art, not even 'A-' (assumption only, choi touchwood eventhough chances are quite high T.T) = not able to elevate my freaking CGPA = not able to hit the cut off point of this particular uni.'s strict admission criteria = sad/depressing/can die

really happens.

i hope it doesn't apply to the rest of their affiliated universities!

again i screwed my studio, or so he said, by he I'm referring to sheep masked wolf, Mr. Bäd (short form of his name Baddaruddin). no other name suits better than this don't you think so? It conjugated "bād" (English : bad) perfectly. his teaching is worse than his name, which is an understatement. i've been doing rectification for 122367834904342323 times (still counting) for no better comment. HELLOOOO I draw according to what you said, not from my imagination, innovation, creativity or whatsoever. ironic isn't it that art is becoming so mechanic and stiff like your aged grandmother's shoulder under his impeccable quality-promised teaching method. art class was so fun back when kindergarden, primary and even lower secondary! now dah jadi pain in ass, thanks for your efforts but no thanks. i'm all out but too bad my last semester is his marionette, the saddest part of all. not that i wanna merajuk but don't you just wanna punch your chest so hard for having such a second to none lecturer? best is, i have 3 hours of remedial class tomorrow which i have to make myself to college purposely just for the fucking sake of doing studio assignment. tmd!

i really don't fucking care what happened in Florence, Paris, Rome, London right up to Kota Tinggi, Pontian, Kg. Chempaka, Timbuktu...not even if the London Bridge is falling down, Pisa leaning tower broke into two or Eiffel tower toppled. i just care what will i be getting for my grade. or else my life will really fall apart!

*****

sidetrack a bit sempena my sombre mood today. how do you people find these foods? i personally love them and few of them are actually on my top 5* favourites among all other mainstream foods :D

Natto*. Best creation of God in health food industry. I don't think it smells like armpit at all! I eat at least twice a week currently and I love its pungent smell.

Smelly beancurd*. I don't know but I suspect I harbour slight toilet bowl fetish.

Fermented beancurd. Fu yu pak juk hou hou mei.

Cumin seeds. Very powerful Indian spices.

Mustard. Akin to wasabi.

Durian*. You should seriously consider migrating if you hate this.

Kim chi*. I can't get enough of white radish kim chi just like my love for acar! Best entrée/side dish/or even maincourse in the world. Can't stand people calling them keh leh feh wtf!

Coriander. Nothing goes wrong with coriander even your BO. How good for this to become middle note!

Bleu cheese. Smells like dried pee + smelly feet meh? 俗语说 :姜是老的辣,芝士是老的臭。

i'm gonna live longer than you as a result of my likings :)))
so happy can die finally.

hasta pronto!

Even if it tastes like watercolours

Another torturous day in college, 2 hours late for the class as usual, drama addict's hang over, no progression on studio assignment still, my brushing for hair is cacat, I've made Avril Lavigne looks like Queen Latifah-ed Marilyn Manson, 3 more days and parents/cuzziez/relatives will be back with lotsa lotsa lotsa pressies for me as tokens of appreciation for taking care of their freaking cars/houses, I think some of them got me Hermes/Prada goodies albeit replicas and my inner child told me I should feel happy about it, had the worst ever shisha in my life, don't know what kinda mixture but I think it involved honey, cocktail, watermelon, apple and mint which gave us sugar rush instead of usual shisha rush, my partner in crime wanted to buy spring films at 12.45 am but was too chickened when we went in the shop and pretended to look at Rihanna's CDs and so bagged home reluctance, my life without college is 9-5, pathetic, working is shit, I should just be a full fledged spoilt brat, what am I trying to prove? To the world that I can stand on my own feet? That I'm not spoon fed? That I can be self sustained? That I'm practicing Self Survival 101 in the middle of crude reality and worldly existence? Who am I to cheat about the fact that I'm still financially dependent on the two poor old ones back home. As a part time corporate slave, my pay is way too low to cover my greed! Yes you read it, GREED, a thing that will never absent from anyone's mind, comes in different forms but heading to the same terminus. Hello, we're human. We live once. Life after death is nothingness. Limbo. Indefinite.

Midterm 2 on coming Tuesday, so there will be more Italian arts, Roman arts, Christian arts, Greek arts...indeed all of them sound like Greek to me. If I can't get at least a B+ for this rubbish subject that I'm taking now, I might as well degrade to amoeba. I have Orgo I and Bio II ahead next year for my last semester. It's a life and death thing for all the past efforts, strongly determinative.

Alright, I should start counting sheeps my blessings to slumberland now. 4.43 am. A besotted ponder of many things. A nonsensical chattering of a sleepless mortal. Sleeping, all the more reason to rejuvenate myself for a fresh start on the other side of this world. 4.53 am. I shall stop here and will hope to meet more understanding souls over there when this world is screwed. Nite.

Burp

Nowadays I really feel like a part time student cos the days I spend in college are far fewer than the days I spend doing otherwise. No, it's no wrong at all but I can't hide the fact how much I detest Art class so much until I'm so reluctant to go to college! Theory is sleepy, history is yawnsy, studio is draggy...the moment I finished my 1st layer, he would praise how "ok, ok, ok...very ok" it is to give hopes and came the next lesson, he would smear criticisms all over that innocent drawing block telling how wrong of him before that for all the praisings and I should redo my studio as a result, full of his hardened constipated Mesolithic shits in my ass! When I asked him A, he answered B, I followed on B, he drifted away to Z. WHAT NOW? Choral speaking is it? PLEASE. Get straight to the core next time. In fact, I don't even deserve that meagre 5%/10% for Midterm 1 cos I'll never understand what he rattles in class albeit it's SOLELY morning slot where that effing brain shall function at best. So much for Roman art and I hate it. Tell me about Goth, Classicism, Greek, Italian, Medieval, Realism, Byzantine, Egyptian, Italian...ETC and I'll introduce you to the whole new meaning of FUCK.

I think I need a day off from working this week. Totally can't stand robotic modus operandi and all the meaningless numerical typings.

In any event, my climax of the day will only be none other than eating. I went so much places to hunt for food these few days courtesy of STAR Guide to Malaysian Street Food but as much as I roam the streets, I'd still end up at the same place most of the time, SS 2 and Sunwaymas, cos they are the nearest to the food barren Kelana Jaya! Holy shitake! The fehhhhmesss Seremban Char Siew at Sunwaymas all sold out on the 2 consecutive days I went. Once was 1pm on Saturday and once 12.30 pm Monday, super gek sei! Die die also must eat this Wednesday, I think I shall go earlier like 8 am cos according to other flogger, Char Siew only available after 10 am. I will root my butt there and wait my life away no matter how after all I've been there and done that, not like I didn't brave through those days where need to queue up 1 hour for stupid J.CO only to find out they taste nothing but sugar and dough. Yes, and that's the reason why I need a day off from work! For Char Siew's sake!

Actually I doubt the reliability of STAR Street Food Guide sometimes cos they got the guts to feature that freaking yau char kwai (cruller) stall opposite my college at Asia Cafe which is one of the most absurd things ever happened. Maybe they are too desperate to search for any other better stalls for they've already overlooked that heavenly stall at SS 2 Chow Yang and many more. And then, that Lorong Seratus Curry Mee in SS 2 is nothing to scream about also after all it's still pale in comparison with the one in Penang ( I assume it is cos Penangites hold great pride and complacency in their hometown delicacies, definitely second to none for them). Worse still, I suffered 3 days of bowels looseness pada kesimpulannya. I still pretty doubt its credibility at the end of the day, IMHO floggers are the most reliable sources available for they will not hesitate to slap on raw comments, best thing is, they are all laymen's feedbacks unless advertorial where they are paid of cos have to siong min right? Aiya, I just don't like shallow comment la, it's like that particular food is totally flawless when it comes into words, glossy papers and superb photography/editing skill. SO WHAT? You may ask.

NOTHING! I just wanna write them down that's all.

Last thing, pasar malam is really blasphemous to all diet plans. Universally recognised.

Taman Negara The Primitive Virgin Jungle

It was really impulsive. As I've mentioned earlier. Charles called me around midnight suggesting a trip to Taman Negara which is like the second last place to travel on my travel list before Genting Highlands. Without giving much thought to it I just gave it a pass since the plan to Malacca got backfired and I didn't even have much time with me in pocket for I have to work. Anyways, according to Nicole she needs to visit as many significant places in Malaysia as possible before she headed to Australia or went back to Taiwan. As Taman Negara didn't sound very appealing to me at first, so instead of giving effort in packing stuffs, I just chuck in some very simple and ordinary items few minutes before I moved my ass afterall it was only a good 2 days 1 night.

We assembled at Mandarin Pacific Hotel before departed to Jerantut, some town in central Pahang hundred kilometers away from KL. OK, now the thing was the whole bus was full of Caucasian tourists in full equipments that it made us so tatty and unprepared. Damn siasuay can! Anyways, the journey on the bus was uneventful as I was sleep-deprived so I barely open my eyes.

Reached Jerantut around 10 am, transited to a local bus and continued with another long journey deep into a village situated at the heart of Peninsular Malaysia called Kampung Kuala Tahan. There were endless villages along the way and they all looked the same to me. After a joyride of 1.5 hours from Jerantut town. Voila, we were finally there! Checked in to our hostel chalet and started our very first adventure, jungle trekking cum cave exploring!

We were required to cross the river with sampan at first to enter the national park reserved forest area then proceeded on with a 1.5 km of trekking in jungle before the said cave visible to us. Basically the entire place was infested with foreign tourists cos I bet the locals must have preferred their weekends at shopping malls over exposure to raw sunlight. And so, the space that we were allowed to move in the cave is around half the size of us, so to say, cos it's way too narrow for adult to move at ease. Thus, a series of acrobatic poses involved where we were being forced to bend, twist, distort and melipat-lipat our bodies in order to advance ourselves. I really hate myself for not excelling in any of those Yoga-Pilates classes, well not that I really gave in much effort also but still...

After exploring the cave, we trailed another 1.5 km back to where we started and took sampan back to our chalet. We were allowed to rest for few hours before the next activity, night jungle walk! And I really wanna mention this but if you ever planning to go visit Taman Negara, please make sure you tapao food (e.g. a bucket of KFC fried chicken) from adjacent town before you found yourself here cos most of their foods taste like mixture of burned leaves and printer ink. Very terrible and the reason simply because Caucasians don't have fussy taste buds like Asians do, our foods mean more than just salt and pepper. Why are Malaysians so 'xenophilic' sometimes I wonder?

Nuff said, the night jungle walk was so-so-ish. Didn't see much nocturnal creatures except for some eerie looking spiders, scorpion, snakes and deers here and there. Oh yea, there were some glowing mushrooms that emit organic lights all over the ground which is at least something new to the few of us. But I was hoping to see tapir, rhinoceros, porcupine, pangolin and bunga rafflesia to no avail cos I suspect they are not nocturnal or camera shy. But some of them are on the verge of becoming extinct though :(

The night walk was rather monotonous and sweaty cos the weather was humid. Then there were always flocks of creepy crawlies flying around frantically, that kind where they would smack hard right into your face deliberately if you failed to siam them. Scary like mad especially those disgusting looking cicadas! They look horrible like Jurassic creatures.

After we called it a day, we settled down at a wooden platform beside the river for some chit-chattings whilst lying flat out face towards the sky pondered about many things happened in this year. During that interval, I couldn't help but feeling powerless amidst of mother nature and why do we try so hard to defy nature sometimes? What I'm trying to say is, no matter how far we go, we can never be anything but ourselves. The land can shatter anytime and as a consequence, thousands of lives will be taken along with it. We can never defeat the host we are living in which is the earth can we? Alright, so we just talked, played chor dai di and munched tit bits until wee hour under sea of stars and moonshine and finally turned in to bed.

Came the next day, we needed to crawl out of the bed at 8 am in the morning for food hunting! Cos it was very hard to find food at discretion for it's bulan ramadhan. As expected, foods are overpriced at this kinda place. A simple mediocre American breakfast in stingy portion cost us more than RM 10. Sighs. Our first event for the second day which was few hours before we headed back to 'civilization' was rapid shooting. Interesting as it may sound but it was merely sailing the engined sampan upstream against the river flow so that it can cause collision with water in order to make us wet out of earthbound water splash. Later on we went to an aborigines settlement to experience their stone age living cultures, reminds me of what I did for Anthropology fieldwork during my first semester at Kampung Pangsun, Hulu Langat. The difference is probably they are of different tribes that's it. Lastly, there was a more adventurous Canopy walking. We walked on elevated suspension bridges tied between tree trunks. It was quite fun especially when the bridge will just swing and dangle around along with your weight at that height whenever you lay a step forward!

Presto and begone! Time to leave the park and back to scary civilization of KL! Journey back was sleeepy, we conked out whenever on the bus. First we took the same local bus back to Jerantut from Kampung Kuala Tahan then only to realize we had missed the last bus to KL in that town. Therefore, we took another local public bus to the bigger town, Temerloh, which took us an hour more. From Temerloh, we sorta 'chartered' a bus back to KL, cos the bus that was supposed to carry 48 passengers only being used to accommodate the 5 of us all the way out of unknown reason or the generosity of that bus operator which I forgot its name. Because, I think we would've missed all the buses back to KL there had it not been the over-friendly ticket vendor. Fortunately enough, luck was on our side even with bonus of having the privilege of enjoying chartered transport at normal communal price. Memang durian runtuh betul!

Arrived KL at 9 pm (Sunday) and marked the end of this offhanded but gratified trip. Not forgetting, burned a big hole in pocket also :( for 2 days 1 night the price we paid is exorbitant and that was already the cheapest/worthiest we could find in short of time like less than a day. Nvm la, not like I will have this kinda chance knocking everytime.

Oh yea, one thing, we never see any leeches in the jungle through out the trip as it was not wet season! It was totally the opposite of what I encountered in Sungai Chongkak few months ago with STACT's members. If you don't already know, leeches are not scary instead they have therapeutic functions like garra fish! Walao eh.

Work

I think by the time I got my first payroll hor I will be in great debt edi and the gaji will be used to toh tiap the uncontrollable expenditure due to the psychological equation of working = more $ = higher consumption = sure no problem cos got income! But in reality it is working = more $ = higher consumption = liquid inflow (equal or less than) outflow = DEBT!

Cos you see, I just started working for 3 days and I had already spent 3 figures on my dinner for that 3 days alone. 3 auspicious it may sound but it's only an innocent numerical symbol which can be pronounced differently as three, tiga, san1, san, sam, sa, tres...so don't infuse some arbitrary meaning into it! If this shall continue, habis habis lah gaji!

I think I can sack my boss edi in that case and we shall see (note : i never ask you to see alright cos it sounds wrong if i put "i shall see").

On the other hand, the uptake of fat/carb/calories sudah mencecah langit but then the consumption still subject to stalemate or worse still unbecoming!!!

I'm feeling 100kg now. Holy shitake! And my looooooooooooong break is coming soon, I'm anytime expecting this body to kembang hingga ketakterhinggaan then explode into pulp during that interval. Bye everyone wtf.

Oh parents will be coming up during Raya to pit stop over KL and then proceed to fly on to timbuktu! No la but then they are going for group tour with saudara mara, cucu cici sekalian and godparents, all but me. Very weep worthy I reckon. But nvm la since this kinda damage can be compensated by anything of monetary value or the like ANYTIME but still...I'm getting emo now.

Don't know if it's just me or what but I always have paradox feelings that part of me wish to be busy like bee but part of me want to be lazy like khinzir, hehe I like to make lame metaphor. Anyways, I guess by keeping myself occupied is not bad an idea better than splurging all the free time mengukur jalan, sai meng.

And so I vow to thee, I must rajin-rajin bergym to melangsingkan badan cos a lot of my close friends are signing up (there I was talking about quitting!), but to hell FF, I'm paying 1.5 times more than they are paying all this while, seriously, if I was born with enough middle fingers, I'd give each and every one of their staffs a friendly gesture from the bottom of my heart (read : fuck their double standard price scheme). If I can just sue them and claim back my retrospective losses, this life will be one step closer to becoming millionaire. And if you think it's funny it's not.

Gracious, we're going to Taman Negara later! Pray for me so that I won't be chopped, minced and eaten up by some disgusting looking paleolithic ogres that came right out from WrongTurnToDeadEnd. It's sooooooooooooooooo impulsive ok, the time from suggestion to decision probably took 1 hour and another few more hours into action. Blame noone, that's our modus operandi afterall.

Before I forgot, sempena musim perayaan, hereby wishing all the Muslims in the world a happy Hari Raya Aidilfitri! I want kuih raya! And is it true where we need to see if the moon appears on the last day of Puasa to decide whether the next day's a Hari Raya? Pardon my ignorance but rumour has it that this actually happens but there's hardly any mention to it.

I personally think that one of the Raya songs which goes like "sudilah rasa kuihku dengan rendangya sekali..." is very high spirited. Haha I must listen to this song in office everyday in order to keep up my pace lo. And believe it or not, I never been to any ramadhan bazaar at all this year (haih i think i should migrate la damn malu can)! I know it's one of the 7 greatest sins on earth but once I get involved I will proceed to commit another greatest sin, gluttony. Le sigh. And guess what's my breakfast for tomorrow? Nato + white rice + miso paste, another weep worthy case but it's healthy la nonetheless and should be made as staple meal in Malaysia lo. But then I wish I can wake up to the aroma of rendang, ayam merah, nasi briyani, nasi kunyit, laksa Johor, all the gulam-gulam...etc EVERYDAY!

Now kill me.

STUPIDESTEST LIVING DISASTER REPORTING IN FOR A PUBLIC APOLOGY

Why on earth was I so blurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr *please rollllllll your tongues* ?

I was dumbfucked cos I thought I lost my house key upon reaching doorstep.

I called Charles for help, crashed at his place and burned 20 bucks of cab fees mind you midnight surcharge applied (was supposed to be frugal or so I told myself)!

Called Mr. Leong for help as well to ask for spare keys, cracked our heads whole night to sort things out.

Called FF M.Axis for lost and found but to no avail (of cos).

And basically the whole world was involved in my fiasco!

So after dragging my weary soul back in my room finally (infinity thanks to Mr. Leong, if not I'd be reaching home at 3 am),

when I opened up my gym bag, LO AND BEHOLD.........

THAT FREAKING HOUSE KEY IS NO WHERE BUT HERE INSIDE MY GYM BAG THAT I'D BEEN LUGGING AROUND WHOLE FREAKING DAY!

Miserably stranded for 5 freaking hours outside for fuck's sake.

My deeeeeeeeeeeepest apology to everyone, I should be eliminated, sorry to all, your mothers, your fathers, your neighbours' cats, your maids, your friends, your friends' parents and your ancestors. I'm so not worth.

When have I became such a great joker on earth. Far more greater than you can ever imagined. Seriously no joke.

Alright, gonna turn in now. Today I must sleep on cold hard sea of needles to repel my sin, really, don't stop me.

Kthxbye.

080917

Hello...*knocks*
Yesterday was the "supposed" September 16 and today is the 17th already (2008 Anno Domini).
Did the world shatter a single bit at this platform where we spill our blood?
No?
Understandably,
Dodgy words from some past-prime ministers (self proclaimed leader of the people) are merely psychological tactic that prone to failure.
It's rather a handy tool to arouse unstable emotion among people.
Who do they think they are again?
God?
Come on, we are not even that mature and civilize yet to comprehend the sacred meaning of God's existence.
What?
Think God will jump around euphorically if He sees witless gender segregation, dog eats dog, power struggle, etc.
Do we really understand what He's trying to convey?
Wait! We are not supposed to understand God, He's omnipotent and superior among everything. Then how do we know what He wants in that case?
How do people interpret prophecies, mantras, epiphanies, God's signs and came about all these imaginary obligations?
How sure do you think we are going to be better off under different ruling?
Is our saving accounts going to bloom simultaneously with a better economy PROMPTLY?
It is not who's ruling that matters.
As long as it's people for people, Malaysians for Malaysians.
As long as you can keep up with your work.
Actualize those promises and substantiate those claims.
The working is fundamental, the manning process and people came along mystified it with personal interests. (Man never greed for less, face it)
Why does true democracy equivalent to terrorism and needs to be suppressed by overaged means of sustaining civil order?
The application of ISA shows how weak our current government in handling problems.
Cos you see, it's easy, if you talk bad about me, I will throw you into dark rooms in order for you to have a taste on your words without giving you any valid reasons for the detention.
It's constitutional afterall.
You can sound and argue but it's the LAW.
It favours dictatorship and nurtures weak goverment.
Tyrannic and obsolete but useful for that kind of ruler.
It's no wrong to use ISA to counter terrorism but merely voicing out facts and realities don't constitute to terrorism, it's a form of liberation and fundamental freedom to show how open minded our society can be in the sense that we pay heed when people point out our mistakes, learn from it but not bury our heads into ground.
In extreme cases, if we were to strictly follow "Dasar Pandang Timur", they'll have to admit their mistakes, kneel/bow down on national TV, shave to bald or sent packing altogether.
Aren't they lucky now to not instill this into our culture?
We are peace loving cos we are Malaysians.
But look what we've got instead...
Politicians mocking each others, put others down blindly, picking on trivial issues, magnifying silly remarks, being all vengeful.
Well lost is lost, this is what we voted, you are incompetent, good for nothing, come back 4 years later then.
Why do politicians making themselves look stupid nowadays instead of being the opposite?
So many crazy things happening and they are not even pushing the country forward.
Hello there, constructive critisms, constructive attitudes, read, CONSTRUCTIVE.
Right, we may achieve Vision 2020 in 12 years time virtually but it can never be factually if the current condition and system prevail.
2020.
Myth? Propaganda? Self-contented slogan? Soon-to-be fact?
Where are we heading?

Happy Mooncake Festival thoughts

Do you know why I loathe Chinese wedding banquet?

First of all, it follows Malaysian time. Like for e.g. I just attended a distant relative's wedding a while ago that the organiser had informed beforehand to compel us to arrive at 7.00pm sharp with strong emphasis, so we thought this time might be an odd one and gave it a pass. Thus, we reached there 7.00pm hoping to start the dinner at 7.30pm sharp with lotsa butterflies fluttered inside. Little did we know that there were some VVVVIPs who took 1 hour to walk from lobby to restaurant's entrance, yes it was you Datuk Shahril (note : never bothered to find out the correct spelling of his name also). Thanks for abiding to the law of Malaysian time.

And when it's wedding banquet by Chinese, it means typical menu at a typical Chinese restaurant with typical folks. I love cold dishes platter but the rest is maximal bummer, well what else we can have aside from sharkfin soup after platter, chicken after sharkfin soup, fish after chicken, prawn after fish...yada. It's an unbiodegradable format and order that God knows who invented and I shall give a lethal kick on his fat-prone ass. Muesli bars that resemble chicken feedstuffs taste 2000x better.

Circumstance where your grandmother/mother will force you to address complete strangers or distant relatives intimately like been knowing for ages. The "yin chan yin chek" session. This is where all the pain in ass catching up happen.

Hopping around from table to table means socializing and paying respect right? And what if running out of topic? Fret not, with all the showy old folks around there's no such thing as lost of words. You will most likely be interrogated with a series of questions pertaining to your whole life. They are trying to know you thoroughly in let's see, 15 minutes? But wait, it's no harm to entertain those whereabouts, whatabouts, howabouts, etc questions, not until when they reveal their fangs and claws. A whole lotta underestimations! They just can't stop comparing everything from how much you earn to how much pubic hair you once had during your salad days as an outlet to flaunt in later conversation. It's like a batte of I-am-greater-than-you. Typical things you can hear : my son/daughter earn XXXXXXXX a month, my son/daughter is studying in XXXXXX Uni in XXXXX country, i'm going to XXXXX for vacation, my children/grandchildren bought me a RM XX XXX massage chair, my son/daughter just married to so and so and bought a house in XXX district, so and so is driving XXX car.........what more to say, typical I-wish-to-get-robbed conversation at banquet. Not that they sound really bad in real life but to draw it down to a simple conclusion, they are none of my businesses. Unless you are willing to make donation to real frugal cheapskate like me selflessly otherwise my saving account is not gonna hike up 10 folds upon hearing all your rubbish. Please don't be showy on the value of your material possession and well being, just bring along your personal values or start gossiping on so and so has XXX mmHg blood pressure, so and so has XXX mmol/L LDL level, and so and so has XX% of proteinurea. I know it's totally incoherent haha.

Noise pollution to max! Kids yelling like cacophonous sound machines, lame songs playing/singing, people scream their lungs out on toasting session ("yum seng")...I swear I can just reduce into dust particle and fly away from that place when either one of them is going on. i know la, the more the merrier but merrier doesn't have to come in the form of noise! Nuff said.

**********
There is no way press freedom and ISA can co-exist in any sense. To adopt First Amendment in this country is like an everlasting myth.

Our political scenario is so weep worthy isn't it? Don't you find it disgusting that some people can just put everything in country at stake to fight for more power for their own interests? To them, personal pursuit is more important than economic well being. He has lost his mind to power struggle. Now that you think he is much more eligible? Jijik. Think again. Hypocrites are all around.

Just let God cast apocalyptic curse upon us then there will be no more fightings after all the existence perished. Period.

Semester 5

Basically my semester 5 is gifted. Soft holiday, alhamdulilah.

Blame me not for I'm too free and feel obliged to butt-stick and hang around here for the time being.

Bad omen for weight control management, I just did some casual body fat % measuring and it came out with depressing result. Needless to say la, numbers don't lie. 1 whole month intake of assorted rubbish in absence of sufficient workout. In a nutshell, too much free time calls for a strong positive correlation with weight index that's it. Sad but true.

In conjunction with this hor...

I will be up for a job I think, any recommendation?

Willing to start work anytime next week.

Just wanna kill time, $ is not important.

Random wtfs

Party hopping for $ = doormat, tailgate, laughing stock and conformation for lousy people(so sad to see our country's administration being manipulated by some past-prime politicians, three cheers for dirty politics)

Cibai Students For A Free Tibet (SFT without the prefix C of cos) = biggest hypocrite on earth, it's neither pro-Tibet nor pro-Chinese, it's pro-Brainless(don't understand what will Westerners gain from a truly independent Tibet, more like distraction than solution).

Got an Ipanema flip flop for only $9.90 at IMM and it doesn't feel much different from Havaianas though, which the latter cost me around $50, yea unfortunately! And bought lotsa cheap stuffs from Daiso, man, this place is totally heaven on earth tailored for cheapskate like me who goes around nipping 平.靓.正 deals unabashedly. $2 STORE WIDE, who can resist?

College rang just now, have to move my ass back for enrolment otherwise pay for late enrolment penalty; FF sms-ed just now for my outstanding payment this month. Suddenly I need to rush back tomorrow instead of Sunday T.T

Gotta face all the hypocrites again.

Fuck this stupid world. Kthx.

Of buaya and the Buaya...

I was being wakened from sleep this morning to hunt for seafood and visit relative at Johor Lama with the parents. Yes, visited that uncle who owns the croc. farm and that place has now turned into a tourist spot!

Luckily there weren't much Singaporeans around today, malls were calm, traffic was tame or at least better than Merdeka Eve which was a total disaster. Me and my kkls went to Danga Bay completely forgotten about the eve of Merdeka and got stucked in Jam for 1 hour along the coast together with rowdy crowd of Mat Rempits after chancing on the escort team of Tengku Mahkota Johor (TMJ) and Raja Muda Johor (RMJ) 10 minutes before that. It was a stalemate of good 1.5 hours on that very road that usually takes us only 10 minutes or so to reach the other end. The only common thing about the aforementioned people is they think the road belongs to their grandfathers. Hereby, a toast to our 51 years of nationhood, it seems that our fellow politicians' bellies are getting prominent these days whilst necessitating us with expenditure cutting suggestions that look like some real good deals we've been missing for long.

Nonetheless, we still love the tanah where we tumpah our darah.

This bugger is damn cute (note : when it's still small and harmless). My face is weird I know.
