My father said I recceived a love letter back home. Obviously it was surat saman. It seems that I exceed speed limit somewhere in Jalan Mahameru on 30th August last year!!! I really don't remember what I was doing there.
Anyway, I went to the Police Station to pay saman, my father said they will have the 'borang rayuan' for us to fill up to reduce the saman. But they DIDN'T.
They posted a sample appeal letter at the counter, requesting us to follow the format. Handwritten also accepted they said. Below is the format, more or else that I could recall from memory.
I also found out that I have another 2 more summons that I didn't pay. What the hell just pay everything one shot la. All with one surat rayuan. RM270 gone and a lesson learnt.
Nama,
Alamat sendiri.

Revelation in Putra Feeder Bus
Today was my legs day in gym, for the first time I did the squad and my legs are screaming with pain with every step. But it is a 'good pain' that I enjoy, meant that my workout worked and my muscle is tearing apart and rebuilding....bigger.
So I was in the bus, heading home after a good workout and tiring night shift, a saw an elderly man getting into the bus, he was not that old maybe at his 50s or 60s, maybe he just retired and was in PBD for some official work. The bus was quite empty, I was sitting at the back of the bus, he got in and right before sitting down he looked at me......just for a while, I sensed sadness and regret in his stare. I didn't react, I just stared back at him, and before I could smile or anything he sat down. The whole thing happened in fraction of a second, but it had me thinking.... all the way to the LRT station.
What was in his mind when he was staring at me?
I can imagine, that maybe he was thinking that, once he was as young...as that guy sitting in at the back of the bus, and maybe he felt that he could have accomplished so many thing in his life when he still in his youth. Maybe he think that he wasted his life on wrong things, maybe he worked too hard until he neglected his friends and family or maybe he was thinking that he should have spend his youth more productively so that he can enjoy his retirement more. Or maybe I reminded him of his son, or maybe he was thinking, look at that young man, so young, at the prime of his age, and he is wasting all his time on things that really does not matter at the end (what ever is that!)
I don't know what the hell in his mind, but there is certainly a lot going on in my mind. I was thinking too much. I was sad.
I always wondered, if there is ONE advice the senior citizen wanted to give younger generation, what that would be?
I always wanted to approach my father and just talk to him about his younger days, the know all his hardship, all the suffering that he went to to bring up his life. But the thing is ,I am not that close to my father, I always wanted to be close, to break that thick wall of ice block between us, but to no avail.
I knew my father is a very hard working man. I am 30 now, and only now I knew that my dad started out as a 'Roti Man', you know, those men that sell bread house to house in motorbike. But in my father's case, it was a bicycle, imagine that! My mum said, my father will come back home roasted in sun, skin dried and darkened, all to support his loving family, and here we are complaining right after we reached home that we had the worse day because the office air cond was too cold.
How things has changed! If my father hadn't work that hard during his youth, will I be sitting here and writing this blog? I really don't think so.
I am just wondering, if my son, one day would write the same thing about me in his blog?
If there is only one advice that I wanted to hear from my father about our youth, what that would be?

Home Sweet Home.
Today for the first time me and wife stepped into the house we bought. Well hopefully it IS our house, we counted (the odd numbers only) and yes, that is house number 9 ( I love number 9, but my favorite is 7, but it was taken).
Well, we stepped into the house, thank God it was not locked. I was expecting some kind of life changing experience. You know, like the one in the movies, you do something really special or meaningful and suddenly you have the life changing moment where suddenly there is music at the background, light shining true the roof, leaves starts flying in and such things? Well nothing like that happen to us.
But we were truly happy.... our house, a place to call home, hopefully for the rest of our life (unless off course we moved in to a bungalow house, heheh).
Imagine, this is the place that we will build our life, this would be the foundation of our future. This is the place where we will have our first child, the place our kids will grow, and all the important events of our life will happen here in ..Insya Allah..perhaps our children wedding, and me and my wife will grow old here. Oppsss I am too far ahead in the future. Well, it is nice to let our mind wander once a while.
I have been haunted by the thoughts on how I am going to finance the whole new house things, yeah we bought a house, but it doesn't stop there. Renovation, furniture, bills. A lot to think about.
But when I imagine all the wonderful and magical things this house going to bear, It simply worth it.
So my dear wife, don't burden yourself thinking about the financial problem, just think about all the beautiful thoughts on our house, and we will somehow make it happen.

Desperate Househusband
I am so bored and I got nothing to do. Thats what happened if you have too much of free time at hand. Since I am working shift, I have 3-4 off days per week. I used to do gardening on my free time, but seriously, how much gardening you can actually do? and some more the new maid is taking care of the garden better than I did, so basically now I am jobless at home.
Well, when you are bored, and at edge of loosing your sanity, it is good to do something nice and different. So I took up cooking. Since I started shift work, I have improved my culinary skill.
Jamie Oliver...my hero....hahahahh
These are few of my my specialties,
Baked potato with cream source
Grilled chicken with orangy creamy sourcy thingy or whatever you feel like naming it.
Fettuchini/spaghetti with garlic source
macaroni and Cheese.
Local dishes,
Mee goreng
Ayam Masak Kicap
Khailan/Sawi/any veggie ikan masin
Nasi goreng
(ignore the spelling mistake, I have no idea how to spell the food name correctly)
But I prefer the western dishes, it is easier to cook, less preparation needed and uses the least amount of kitchen utensils (is it?)
And ever since I joined the Gym , I have learned to cook healthy as well. I use least amount of oil, and I only use olive oil, since it is healthier. I Don't fry anything any more, it is all grilled (without oil).
At the moment, my favorite is Tuna sandwich. It is healthy, has right amount of carb and protein needed by body, and oh man, it is easy to make or what?!!!!!
Other than that, I also sometimes (very rarely though) clean the bedroom and redo the furniture, just to surprise my wife, most of the time she will be pleased with the result.
Hmm, can't wait to move in to the new house, there will be a lot of activity for me to do then on my off days.
I am definitely a DIY guy. I love crafts, carpentering, plumbing , hanging wallpaper, gardening, fixing mosquito net around windows, anything that needed to be done aroud the house.
My major client right now is my mother in law, my parents and my sisters.
My sisters will wait till go back on weekend to fix things up in their house. I am doing charity only now, no charges....so far. I have invested a lot in tools also. It is a good investment though, rather than paying handy man for their lousy job.
P/S: Desparate Hosewives is really a good show, and my wife became an instance fan, maybe she felt related to the characters? I don't know.
Ladies, want to know which house wife you are? Well take this quiz to find out !

Weddings..... Indian Muslim Style.
This morning I woke up full with excitement. The day was beautifully, the bird's were chirping more joyously this morning and sun seems to shining brighter. I am just too excited. Why? Well, I got a wedding to attend to!!! That's why....It is not any wedding, it is an Indian Muslim wedding. How exciting!!!! (it should be obvious by now that the I am being SARCASTIC!!!)
Attending any wedding is the one thing that I hated most, for me it a terrible way to waste our precious weekend. I practically have to drag my feet all the way to the wedding hall, put up a smile face, chit chat with who ever sitting beside, eat pay the 'saman' and leave.
It is not that bad actually, but after attending soooo many many many Indian Muslims wedding, I am getting very tired of the monotonousness of the whole wedding/reception functions. All reception seems to be following some kinda unwritten rule (or maybe it is written, IM Wedding 101).
I list down the flow of the event for a typical Indian Muslim wedding reception.
1. Once we reached the hall, we will be greeted by the welcoming committee at the entrance, usually these committee members consists of men or women who are seniors on either side of the brides or the groom.
2. Before we were seated, we should greet and acknowledge everyone we know all the way to our table, even the very very distant relatives, by the time this process is completed, 15-20 mins would have easily gone by.
3. Once we were seated at the noise reception hall, usually a round table that sits 8-10. We would face the dreadful truth. The very very familiar looking menu will be facing us. The food is catered by Syed Restaurant, if it is not, you can be sure that it is not and Indian Muslim wedding and you can safely assume that you have crashed a wrong wedding. The food is the same, Nasi minyak or briyani, mutton, onion chutney, dalcha, spicy fried chicken and dessert is caramel pudding.
4. Bride and groom willl arrive fashionable late. (very late)
5. When they finally arrive, the drink jug on each table would have emptied and the appetizer (usually nuts) would have consumed to the last piece.
6. Brides and groom walks the aisle. Most of the time companied by the "Salawat" by Yusuf Islam (this is a MUST, I remind you)
7. When the newly weds finally settled. The MC starts to welcome the crowd and call an ustaz or maulana with massive beard to recite doa and read verses from Quran.
8. The MC will invites a person of influence in the community (preferable someone with Datokship) to introduce the couples to the guest. While this going on, the crowd continuously ignored the speech and talk loudly among themselves, competing with the PA system.
9. The MC will announce that the food will be served. Crowds get excited.
10. There will be 'food presentation' where the head waiter will makes his grand entrance followed by his follower. This will be accompanied by a very grand music from background, usually form some action movies soundtracks.
11. The crowd fullfills their purpose, they eat.
12. After a while, the MC will call upon the newlyweds to give speech. The newlyweds give speech. The crowd still ignores the speech and minding their own business.
13. MC announce the cake cutting ceremony, couple cut the cake(again accompanied by another background music from movie soundtrack). The crowd is still totally unaware of what happening at the main stage as they busy talking as always)
14. MC announce that guests can wish the couple at the entrance.
15. Another 15-20 mins will pass by waiting in the queue to wish the couple. On the way to queue 'point number 2'repeated here. Another 15 mins gone.
16. When finally arrived at the couple, take couple of minute trying to remember who they are and how we are related to them, if still no idea just say congrats and pay the saman. (anyway it would be impossible to recognize the bride since her face would be transformed into doll-like feature on that day, if they hired a really really bad mak andam).
17. Fuhhh finally out of the hall......wait wait.. there is the auntie you have not met for entire 2 week. She comes running towards you asking how is your health and how is everybody in kampung...no escape.......smile smile...Don't forget that. Another 15 mins flies. (You are lucky if you only encounter only one aunty!)
18. Finally, you are in the car. Oppppssss wait, the wife says, I forget to take the door gift! Run to the hall (it best to enter through the backdoor in order for easy escape) Grab the door gift and run!
19. Ahhh finally in car again!
20. Reach home.... hmmmm another wedding. Heavy food! Time to sleep away the entire Sunday!
My wedding was the exact same!

Tuition
Finally, I got a student. I have been telling everyone since I started my shift work that I am going to teach tuition for kids on my off days. And now after 10 months only I got one.
Well I was not really looking for students seriously, that's the reason I guess, but this one was handed by one of my childhood friend who is a teacher. She was teaching this girl all this while, but due to the unforeseen circumstances, she was unable to continue to teach her.
This is home tuition, means that I have to travel to the student house (all the way to Kota Damansara), the pay is by hour, considered a good pay for a first time tutor (anyway, I used to be a temp teacher while waiting for Uni) I teach this UPSR student, twice a week (4 hrs).
Teaching tuition makes me realize how berkarat my BM has become! I was mostly cluless when it comes to simpulan and peribahasa. But when the student ask, I just ask her to refer to her reference book!
I am no Einstein, but I can teach!

Sorry...
I am not being arrogant or cocky or anything egoistic, but lately, I can't seem to grab the concept of the word 'sorry'. It is not like I never apologies to anyone in my whole life. I do, I do it quite often, that's the word that comes naturally out of my mouth right after I did or say something that I should have not done. Maybe that's my problem, everybody's problem.... We say sorry too easily, without meaning it.
When and why do we say sorry? And what are the implications of the word 'sorry' should be? What is the course of action that should follow right after we utter the word 'sorry'?
These are not rhetorical questions. I am really asking because I have no idea!
However on my part, I truly belief that, when we say sorry, it should convey the message that we really regretted what we have done and promise to ourselves that we would not repeat the same mistake intentionally.
But when sorry is simply used as an excused to repeat the same mistake over and over again, it losses its meaning, its power. It is like, "Go ahead, do whatever you liked, if you hurt others, just say sorry and everything would be just fine".
I make mistakes in life; I am not talking big here. I do sometimes repeat the same mistakes and apologies over and over again. I admit.
But I hope, perhaps, by limiting the frequency of uttering the word 'sorry', we could actually improve yourself and our relationship with people around us, because we are no longer using the word 'sorry' merely as an excuse to repeat the same mistake in the future.

Don't be such a QUEEN dude!
I meet all kind of people in the gym I go to. Most of them just mind their own business and go there for mainly......working out. Well that the way it suppose to be. You don't go to gym to socialize or chat (hmm maybe except for girls... they really can chat ANYWHERE...even on a treadmill running at quite high speed......... a rather quite gym with 100s of guys suddenly will be noisy after 2 girls join in).
Usually I don't trash people on my blog. But this guy is pushing my limit!
You see... there is this one guy who works out in the same gym with me. I got to tell you, this guy thinks that he is a gift to all womankind. How I know this? Well I haven't seen any guy spend like 30min-1 hour walking in their underwear in locker room, and this guy practically does that and he spend hours admiring himself in the mirror. It makes me wanna puke. It is ok if you trying to flex your muscle for few min infront of the mirror to give you the satisfaction of your workout...it does help I must admit. But this guy, just a bit too much and I must say that other guys in the gym feel the same way towards this guy.
Am I jealous? Please............ let me tell you, his body is not that great, he is not 'cut' and there is still flabs and if I were him I'll be doing more cardio to burn those excess fat than doing weight training, and I got this funny thing that I must share...... I heard Mr I-am-so-hot-everybody-look-at-me talking to on of his 'victim',
Victim: You have tone up a little, why don't you do more cardio....you know.... to look more 'ripped'?
Mr I-am-so-hot-everybody-look-at-me: Oh no... I can't do that, If I do cardio, I'll loose all my muscle..... my body is weird... I loose fat even when I am sleeping...I can't do cardio!
What a bull crap, buddy, if you loose fat while you sleeping....how you explain the flab in your abdomen!!!!
Things can't get worse?!!!
You are wrong. I found that the Mr I-am-so-hot-everybody-look-at-me is working in a same company with me and he just moved on to my floor! I was so taken back..... What this ass**** doing here I was thinking.
Anyway to not be rude, I just give him a respectfully node and simple smile to acknowledge him.....since we have met many time in gym, But what Mr I-am-so-hot-everybody-look-at-me did? He completely walk pass thorough me as though I wasn't there!!!! What a jackass!
On another occasion that really pisses me off is that, I went to collect my printings at the printer. The printer was down for 2 days, but since the status of the documents I was printing was "printing" I went to collect my printings anyway.
Guess who I saw there. There he was, Mr I-am-so-hot-everybody-look-at-me aka Mr I-know-everything-and-I-can-fix-anything was there...Meddling something with the printer.
"Is the printer working now?" I asked him politely...... He just looked at me gave a blank stare, mumbled something and continue with his handy-work.
I felt like really punch him on that spot!!! What an asshole!
The sad part is I have walk pass his cubicle everyday to go to my cubicle. What a torture!!! I have to see the Mr I-am-so-hot-everybody-look-at-me disgusting face everytime.
I am going to ignore him from today onwards, surely someday he will be needing my favor or my team's favor....then see what his fate will be like!!!!
Usually I don't trash people on my blog. But this guy is pushing my limit!
You see... there is this one guy who works out in the same gym with me. I got to tell you, this guy thinks that he is a gift to all womankind. How I know this?

Please............ let me tell you, his body is not that great, he is not 'cut' and there is still flabs and if I were him I'll be doing more cardio to burn those excess fat than doing weight training, and I got this funny thing that I must share...... I heard Mr I-am-so-hot-everybody-look-at-me talking to on of his 'victim',
Victim: You have tone up a little, why don't you do more cardio....you know.... to look more 'ripped'?
Mr I-am-so-hot-everybody-look-at-me: Oh no... I can't do that, If I do cardio, I'll loose all my muscle..... my body is weird... I loose fat even when I am sleeping...I can't do cardio!
What a bull crap, buddy, if you loose fat while you sleeping....how you explain the flab in your abdomen!!!!
Things can't get worse?!!!
You are wrong. I found that the Mr I-am-so-hot-everybody-look-at-me is working in a same company with me and he just moved on to my floor! I was so taken back..... What this ass**** doing here I was thinking.
Anyway to not be rude, I just give him a respectfully node and simple smile to acknowledge him.....since we have met many time in gym, But what Mr I-am-so-hot-everybody-look-at-me did? He completely walk pass thorough me as though I wasn't there!!!! What a jackass!
On another occasion that really pisses me off is that, I went to collect my printings at the printer. The printer was down for 2 days, but since the status of the documents I was printing was "printing" I went to collect my printings anyway.
Guess who I saw there. There he was, Mr I-am-so-hot-everybody-look-at-me aka Mr I-know-everything-and-I-can-fix-anything was there...Meddling something with the printer.
"Is the printer working now?" I asked him politely...... He just looked at me gave a blank stare, mumbled something and continue with his handy-work.
I felt like really punch him on that spot!!! What an asshole!
The sad part is I have walk pass his cubicle everyday to go to my cubicle. What a torture!!! I have to see the Mr I-am-so-hot-everybody-look-at-me disgusting face everytime.
I am going to ignore him from today onwards, surely someday he will be needing my favor or my team's favor....then see what his fate will be like!!!!

Music of my life...........
If I am only dedicated to blogging, I it will be full of my random thoughts. It just too much going on in my head that I want to write down, kinda reminder to myself on my thoughts on certain things. But by the time I logged in to the blog I wonder where all this ideas fly away.
I am determined today that I will write something.
The way I am feeling at the one particular moment always been influenced by the songs I am currently listening or a really really old song that suddenly playing in my head out of blue and and my mood suddenly changed.......... according to song that is playing at the back of my head (it is like background application that launches in Windows without nobody starting it..... like a spyware!)
My life has been greatly influence by music. I don't have a particular artist that I adore and admire (well ..... actually I have). But the point is I listen to anything that I find interesting, I am not bounded by the artist or the language.
Listening to an old song really will bring you back old memories...... I guess that happen to everyone. But for me, I can feel what was my mental and emotional state at that particular moment of my life and I will be reliving it all over again. Not only that, there are certain song when I am listening, I can remember exactly where I heard it first, where I was driving at that moment and so on..........
It drives me crazy most of the time, it is like a curse, like now.... I am listening to these old songs from 80s and I feel really disturbed. This is what my parents used to listen and I am feeling so sad and disturbed emotionally. I feel like life just rushed past me leaving waaaayyyy back all alone. So much things hopped so fast. It is true what people say.............. Our life span here is just a blink of eye.
But then again........ there are song that really bring joy to me no matter what I am feeling at the moment. I like these songs. But I really can't reveal those songs here ( as though anybody bother to know!!!!) it is like my secret, some more I think people will think that I am weird judging on my music preference.

What A Revenge!
I am emotionally disturbed! It has turned my world upside down! And I my perceptions towards Darth Vader has changed completely and I'll never watch the original Trilogy in the same way again.
Revenge of the Sith
In my opinion, this is the best of the prequels and probably best Star Wars (even better than Empire Strikes Back.... in my opinion, but there are many out there who still thinks ESB is still the best) It was the only episode in all prequels that actually moved the audience so emotional.
This movie made me angry, sad and happy all at one time. Even I knew the plot of the story long before, the movie had me at the edge of the seat from start till end (apart from the reason that I really need to piss and no way I am going to leave to toilet, because I wanted to absorb every nano second of that digital marvel).
The first think that I wanted to do right after watching ROTS is go back home and watch A New Hope (ANH), just to make myself feel better and that there is still hope to restore the order of the Galaxy. But too bad I left my previous trilogy back in my hometown, I hope it still be in one piece, knowing how rough my nephews are with CDs.
George Lucas is definitely a genius and I heard that if ROTS becomes the biggest box office of the year, he will most probably continue with Episode 7 (Shadow of the Empire form book by Steve Perry if I am not mistaken) , 8 and 9. And there is also Star Wars TV series to look forward to, the series is about what happen between the period of the ROTS and ANH.
And May the force be with you!

It is official.... I am OLD!
When I was small kid, I thought those who are 30 years old and above are really really old. I just turned 30 about 1 and half an hour ago. So far I am feeling fine, I don't feel old yet, things looking good I guess, but it just has been 1 hour and 3o min, too early to conclude anything.
But, from my 1 hour and 3o min experience as an 30 years OLD guy, I can assume that things are going fine, nothing to be alarmed or to be nervous, I just have to accept the fact that I am 30 years older and wiser (as my darling wife advised).
So I am sitting down here trying to plan out how I should conduct myself as an 30 years old. I am childish, I admit that without shame, my nephews and nieces feel comfortable with me that they take me as their friend because I could totally relate to them. I am totally comfortable the way I am now. I might act childish sometimes, but I am much more better now, at least I think I am matured in my mind even though I don't look it.
So... How an 30 years old should act? anyone?

And May The Force Be With You....
Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith is opening this week. I am so excited that no words can describes it. It is opening on 19th May, one day after my birthday (May 18th). I wonder why all Star Wars Movies (I am talking about the prequals only) opening very close to my birthday? Is this George Lucas Birthday treat to me? :) Off course no, I heard that his bithday falls somewhere in May (16th if I am not mistaken, and he is 61 this year, unbelieveable!!!).
If somebody really want to get a birthday gift that I would REALLY REALLY appreciate, that would be the opening ticket to the Revenge of the Sith (hints... hints...)
Being a Skywakler clansmen myself(he he he), I am a major Star Wars junky, I dig everything on Star Wars. I still remember back in college when The Phantom Menace opening, I practically watched the trailer everday and collected every magazines that had even a very little TPM articles in it. Since all my buddies that time was a SW fans as well, all we talked about that time was Star Wars, Star Wars and Star Wars.
A friend of mine queued at TGV KLCC for hours to get us the tickets. Not only we were managed to watched the TPM on the opening day, we manage to watched the midnight show the day before as well, and the next day we watched it again... I guess in the period of 48 hrs, we watched it 3 times.... in theatre! At the end I watched TPM 7 times in cinema, that time I was doing industrial training in Motorola KL, and spent the allowance money on Star Wars. It was so crazy then, but now I have slowed down. I still follows and read every production detail, but not as crazy as last time, most probably because I seldom keep in touch with my college friends so much nowadays.....everybody seem so busy!
Let list down all the Jedis in IIUMENGINE96-2000
1. Kyrill - Major fan, he knows everything on SW, no point arguing with him about SW, he's the master.
2. Bajang - A Padawan...even after all this years.....
3. Yan Ya - He still insisted on watching TPM even he had final on 'Graphics' the next day
4. Emma - One of the more knowledgeable female Jedi
5. Chai - Another female Jedi, who travels from Sabah to KL to catch The Attack of the Clones
6. MTLR - Watches all the prequels in pirated VCDs first, much to annoyance of the rest of the Jedis
7. Mahathir - (President of MGS.. hahaha... please dont even bother ask what it is stands for)
I have the strong feeling that I have missed out someone........
We made a pack back then that when E2 releases, we would all gather to watched it together..... but at the end it was just me and Kyrill... due to unavoidable circumstances.......

Surprise Phone Call
Yesterday while I was in office, I received a surprising phone call, from an old old friend. Orhan, he is an Albanian, we studied together in UIA. anyway, I was puzzled, because right after he called me, he start talking about McAfee licensing issues and and how to purchased the upgrades, no "Hi", no "how are you?" no "long time no see old friend...". Although I was so puzzled and clueless why he asking me all this, I tried my best and answered his questions patiently. Then suddenly he paused...for a long time. Then he asked "Are you Guzz from UIA?", "Yeah" I said. Then he started to laugh, after he managed to calm down he explained that he is supposes to call one of his vendor/supplier who has the same name like mine.
Anyway we chatted for about half an hour, talk about old times and what we are up to now. It felt good, talking to a old friend.
But I wonder, why that we are too busy with our career and current affairs that we hardly have time to call old friends just to keep in touch, that we need 'accidential' phone call like to actually catch up with an old friend?
This simple unexpected event makes me realise how precious our old friends are, they are like time machine, talking to them is like travelling back in time...
This makes me wonder......... Maybe I myself might try out this accidential phone call in the future.....
So guys..please be prepared to receive mysterious calls!

Stupid TV Shows...
This has been bugging me for months, I guess I have to get it out of my system!
This is complete waste of our air time and even more complete waste of viewers' precious time.
Seriously.... Who is Victoria Gotti and why should we care about her life? It is not even remotely interesting. She have this 3 sons who are completely spoilt to the max.... real brats! The TV add says that There is a queen named Victoria lives in a castle with 3 princes!!! It suppose to be how 'hard' she have to work bringing up her spoilt brats and how she struggles with her love life. If you are multimillionaire, I guess it would be really 'hard' waking up before noon (after partying all nite) to prepare breakfast for your own kids. It really make me wanna puke...please.... I watched it once, and that 30 min of my life I am never getting back.
And don't even let me start with Paris Hilton and Nicole Ritchie. I guess if you are born with not an ounce of talent in your bone, you have to come up with something lame like this stupid 'reality show' to gain popularity (Hmmm I guess the hot steaming sex video Paris' ex-bf releases wasn't enough for her to gain popularity) What is so interesting watching 2 rich and spoilt girls going town to town making fun of other people professions/the way the make their livings? What they know about hard work and actually earning for living? Seriously...somebody please enlighten me... I am so confused...is it considered 'in' nowadays?
No wonder Matt and Trey (South Park creators) dedicated a whole episode for them in "Stupid Spoiled Whore" .......Serve them right if you ask me!
Paris in South Park....isn't she lovely?
On the positive sides..... DON"T even miss the LOST, it is so interesting..... many had tried to produce show about bunch of people stranded in a mysterious island, but this is the best so far!
And American Idol off course....which I didn't miss once this season....... Whatever America voted, Nadia Turner is my Idol, it is sad that such a talented singer have to walk home so early in the show.
Who watches 'The Simple Life" and "Growing Up Gotti" anyway? It is so stupid and insults the viewers' intelligent!
This is complete waste of our air time and even more complete waste of viewers' precious time.

Thunder and Lightening Can't Change What I am Feeling
I am sad, my fish is dead.
The electricity went off yesterday after lightening struck. The funny thing is the electricity was back after few hours for the rest of the neighborhood except our my house!!!
It seems that the fuse was blown by lightening. The TNB came around 8pm (as efficient as always) and it took them to about 2-3 min to fix the whole thing...... If only they could have come 1 hour earlier, they could have saved my beautifully white Japanese carp(koi). It was only about 5cm when I bought it, on the day of its departure, it was almost 1 feet long!!!
I was devastated!

p/s: This post has been in my 'draft' for almost a month. I started it when I was actually sad, but now I feel plain stupid, after all it just a fish.

Just Imagine.....
I think John Lennon is the greatest singer ever. PERIOD
Imagine
Imagine there's no heaven,
It's easy if you try,
No hell below us,
Above us only sky,
Imagine all the people
living for today...
Imagine there's no countries,
It isn't hard to do,
Nothing to kill or die for,
No religion too,
Imagine all the people
living life in peace...
Imagine no possessions,
I wonder if you can,
No need for greed or hunger,
A brotherhood of man,
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...
You may say I'm a dreamer,
but I'm not the only one,
I hope some day you'll join us,
And the world will live as one.
-John Lennon
Backmasking (hidden message in songs, if played backwards)
I was skeptical about this until I actually heard the subliminal messages! It is just creepy! Some are definitely intentional but most are pure coincidence.
These are few examples, Well I am not going write those subliminal messages here, check it out yourselves at this site:

Creepy huh!

Dancing Queen..... Sweeeeeet!
I am a big...huge South Park Fan. I'll eagerly wait for each episodes to be available to be downloaded every week. And I'll watch it over and over it again. I'll even read the transcripts and the voice talents of each episodes.
Many regards SP as a vulgar show, but, I would say, it depend mainly on how you look at it. I think the show have tackled so many current issue, outspoken on most global issues.
Many regards SP as a vulgar show, but, I would say, it depend mainly on how you look at it. I think the show have tackled so many current issue, outspoken on most global issues.
For instance, there will be at least one "moral of the story'' at the end of the show.
Sometimes it would very intelligent such as:
"No, no. You know who was right all along? The Mongolians. They knew that you just can't wall yourself off from the outside world. Putting walls up never helps anything. Tearing them down brings us together. "
from episodes Episode 611 - Child Abduction is Not Funny.
Or it can be plain stupid, such as:
"Nobody should have the kind of power Barbara Streisand wanted!"
from Episode 112 - Mecha Streisand.
Both are simple plain truth...nobody can argue with that ;)
What I really want to talk about today is WING, the latest episode from season 9.
I bet my life that nobody heard of Mrs Wing before. She migrated to New Zealand with her family about ten years ago from Hong Kong. She have been learning singing in New Zealand and doing performances in Rest Homes and Hospitals and occasionally promotional concerts.
Her songs are funny..... If you think William Hung is funny...well think again!
But unlike William Hung who tries to be funny, Mrs Wing really gives her all for all her album.... (yup, she cut 9 albums already!)
All of her songs are cover versions (of Beatles, Phantom of Opera..etc)
And ever since South Park dedicated an whole episode her, her popularity has grown so much that she is so busy trying to keep up with Radio and TV interviews, not only in New Zealand but in the US and Europe as well.
If you feel down and sad, and need cheering up, listen to her music, it will put smile back to your face.... I SWEAR!!!!
You can download the sample song from http://www.wingtunes.com/public/default.aspx

Bend it like Beckham....
Life is getting too routine.
I need something to spice up my life,
I need to do something spontaneous,
I need to do something different,
I need to do something that exciting...
What I did?
I shaved my head! It was the most spontaneous thing I have done in a long time.
I guess I look ok with shaved head... Kinda macho.... hahahh, but my wife says that I look like gengster!!!
Boy! was she surprised today when she got back from work to see my new look. She was wondering why on earth I was wearing cap.
"Your mum going to kill you!!!" she said, and she added "Thank God you are working nite shift this whole week....at least I don't have to sleep next to a gengster!!!"
Anyway, my new 'hair' gives me new energy all of sudden. I guess surprising ourselves is a great way to excite our live!!!
Rumours says that I look like Black version of Beckham........ ( I started the rumour... Ahaks..hahah)
