Valentine Greetings

I am working and usually I don’t blog while I am working (I am a very obedient modern slave :p). Nevertheless, would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone here a very Happy Valentine.


For those who found love, may your love last forever.

For those who has not found love, let love find you (yucks.. damn corny).

And for those who don’t have enough love, go make more love.

Oh, a friend accidentally copied me in his e-mail to his wife regarding ‘their plans’ tonight. Hahahahahaha… that was a hilarious read! If you’re feeling the heat of the day, reading that mail will give you instant goose bump! Sorry… can’t publish that mail here la.

Have a nice time tonight! Make love, not war.

No time?

"You've got a blog??!!!??!"

That's what one of my ex-colleague said to me when she found out I have a blog. Well, having a blog is not a big deal right? Actually, her point was... that I actually have "time" to blog. She said she always have things to do... work... meeting up with friends... read... errands... and one thing she said that I will always remember...

"When I am in the house, I am always busy doing something"

For those who intends to start a blog but couldn't, their all time favourite procrastination excuse is "no time". Seriously, who has time in this world? Every tom, dick and harry or mary, jean and jane are busy. And seriously, if you think you have no time, let me tell you about this individual who:

• Has over 1,000 (yes... one thousand) blogs in his read list. Say 25% of the blogs are updated in any particular day, this means he will have to read 250 blogs a day;
• His line of work requires him to have meetings regularly and on top of that, he has to meet people regularly to bond with people;
• Married and has 2 children and from what I understand, picks up his son from school;
• Besides meetings, I think he has to attend seminars and workshops regularly to equip himself;
• He watches series, that last time I heard, he was watching Battlestar Gallatica. He is going to get Grey's Anatomy and Heroes from me pretty soon. Wonder he has already watched L.O.S.T.;
• Even on a Sunday, he has to work, because that's his main working day. Yes, he is a pastor which means he has to prepare his sermon and practise his sermon during the week;
• .... And yes, he blogs, quite regularly too. Most of his blogs are reviews on books or other interesting read sites; and
• The fact that he blogs about books regularly probably means he reads... a lot.

So maybe you're really a very very very busy person. Maybe you always have things to do. But I am damn sure if you really wanna blog, you will find time to do it cos you really don't need 28 hours a day to blog.

I am sure some jokers will say they dunno what to blog even if they want to.... now, that's a blog for another time...

Respect for Malaysian Drivers - blogspot version

Much has been said about us Malaysian drivers. Many perceive us as rude, bullies and totally inconsiderate. Hey, I have to disagree! Do you know it takes a lot to be a Malaysian driver? C’mon, you have to see beyond the negative surface in order to see how good we are. Let me tell you why…

First, you definitely gotta respect us due to our excellent financial planning. We are a bunch of stupid modern slaves working our ass off everyday and getting paid peanuts for it, and yet, we can afford a car. No car no can do, particularly in KL. Those fellas who get their balls squeezed and get paid RM1,300 a month also can drive a car. Everyday roti kosong + ais kosong, no problemo, as long as I have car. See, we are damn good in financial planning.

Secondly, you gotta respect us for our level of patriotism. High fuel cost? Increase in toll? Not freaking problemo. Also must thank the goament for reducing road tax by about RM10 a year. Damn a lot weh! Can you imagine how many roti kosong + ais kosong some fellas can get from that RM10? We understand we have to pay more for petrol and pay higher toll for some semi-value highway cos our king has to live in a new palace, one joker has to play batu seremban in space and our AFF semi finalist footballers (wooo, semi-finals, don’t pray pray) have to train in London. Expensive petrol and high toll… still drive. See, how fu*king patriotic we are?

Who said we Malaysian drivers are stubborn? We are damn flexible I tell you! Just look at the way we refuse to be bound by the rigidity of law. Green, yellow or red, just tekan the accelerator. Whether it is double line or dotted line, just signal and pusing. Emergency lanes? Cheaper road tax doesn’t mean we can’t use it right? Yellow line? Just park only… No line means can double park. See, our flexibility and ability to think outside the box in order to be the first at a junction or cross-road deserves much admiration.

So what if our flexibility fails us, and what if those fellas pull you over? Fear not, we are a resourceful bunch. With our impeccable negotiation skills, rest assured, everything will be settled instantly and immediately. Besides, those fellas are damn helpful I tell you… that’s why when you you “boleh tolong kah?”, they sure tolong you wan, cos they’re a helpful bunch. See, we are damn resourceful, always know how to get out of trouble. Besides, “settle sini” usually means got discount… ahh, see, good financial planning can be seen here.

Who said we Malaysian drivers are selfish? We are damn kind and warm towards each other. Remember those times where we are stuck inside the yellow box? Just look at the way we all squeeze inside so that more cars can freaking join the stop-in-yellow-box-crowd. Damn thoughtful right? All goes to show that we want to be closely knitted to each other. We will try to be as close to the car in front of us so that the car behind can also make it into the yellow box, a true demonstration of selflessness. I mean, we also do not want to be seen as aloof and distant from each other, right? This is why no matter what speed we are travelling, we always tail each other closely.

Courage is also a very significant characteristic of a Malaysian driver. People always say the roads are not safe, damn freaking true! Just look at the amount of 'land-mines' present on our roads which appear in the form of pot-holes. Try running through it at high speed, like the one in the pic, your car may overturn I tell you!. Besides such 'land-mines', there is also the presence of 'dark-beings' on the road, in the form of Urukhais ala Mat Rempits . If one has a weak heart, one may not be able to take it when 20-30 of such dark-beings riding next to you. Worst, sometimes, they may even be heading towards you from the opposite direction. Indeed, we Malaysian drivers are a courageous bunch.

Last but not least, we Malaysian drivers are probably the most patient people in the world. Just look at the way we brace through the jam. We love to listen to listen Morning Crew and despite gotcha calls are getting boring, we still like to listen to them, that’s why we are love to get stuck in the jam early in the morning. Do we take the public transport as an alternative? Of course not! Late for work? No problemo. Besides, "Biar lambat, asalkan selamat", did we not learn this during our primary school days?

So there you have it. The true nature of us Malaysian drivers. Next time some fellas tell you Malaysian drivers are terrible, ask them to read this post. They really need to look beyond our surface in order to see how much effort we put in to bring the best out of us. If only people will understand us, then we will never be stereotyped as rude, bullies and inconsiderate.... Sigh.

The Sculpture

From the ground
That’s where it was first picked up
Clay, made from dust
Something so dirty, most times unwanted
Unaware of its worth

With water, clay was softened
First step towards transformation
The hands provided the effort
From the heart… love and patience
Clay and hands, oh what passion

From mere dust to a masterpiece
Greatness, many perceived
So stood the sculpture for the complete years
That’s when the legacy ended
If only it was avoided

The hands that made it all
Same hands that made it fall
From once placed so high
It was thrown right to the ground
Some parts lost… and never found

A year after, for what was ever after … (supposedly)
The sculpture, the hands miss
Thus they were picked up piece by piece
But some were lost
It was a lost cause

Tried he did with what’s left
The hands did their best
But the clay was no longer the same
Some pieces were missing
Sigh… certainly pointless in pursuing

Passion not faded, but hands were tired
Hurt… from the cuts, those sharp pieces made
Fiasco it is, finally came to term
It was after all, the right judgement
What’s left… only reminiscence

Morons of the same brain park together

Was in Time Square last Saturday to catch a movie and despite many claimed that TS fails to live up to its expectations, it can still be pretty crowded. After all, shopping centre is like the solution to everything… pak tor? Shopping centre la… lunch? Shopping centre la. Wanna check out chicks? Shopping centre la… dinner? Shopping centre la… meeting point? Shopping centre la… buy phone? Shopping centre la… reunion? Shopping centre la… shopping? Wait for sale la!

If you think trying to locate a parking space in 1U is the tough, you may want to try the TS car park challenge. Anyway, after making countless rounds around the parking lot and having to race with other cars to the nearest available car park (and failed), imagine how I felt when I see this….


Unfu*kingbelievable!!! Ok, maybe… just maybe, we can forgive the Volvo driver becos that freaking moron is after all… a “P” driver. But then again, that moron literally parked in the middle of 2 freaking lots!!! Right smack in the middle!!! I mean… won’t you realise after you’ve stepped out from your car? I change my mind… totally unf*ckingforgiveable!

And that Waja driver… dunno whether he is stupid or brainless or was hit with the might-as-well virus. He could at least park nearer to the pillar so that anyone with a kancil can squeeze in (I actually saw 2 kancils stopped and pondered about that notion for a few seconds). But no… he has to join in the moronic act and park like an idiot.

I wanted to go check out what’s inside to ascertain whether it’s a guy or a gal driver decided otherwise, to avoid any overly-sexist remark.

Remember the car-plate numbers people, I reckon you wouldn’t wanna park your car anywhere near these morons the next time you go for movie or pak tor or makan or lepak.

The positive point? Managed to catch “Blood Diamonds” and have to say it was a good show. Also… the movie has a good after effect, shall blog about it soon, perhaps.

The tail to the tales...

Relationship… romance… love… we all long for it despite being burnt countless times. It’s like a condom, you would rather have it and don’t need it… rather than when you need it but don’t have it. Of course, some of us are fortunate enough to need it and have it at the same time (I mean love… not condom).

Like what QueenB said, relationship stuff is more complicated than rocket science. I couldn’t agree more. Sometimes, you think you should follow your head, but you end up following your heart. For guys, even worse, have to choose between head, heart… or dick.

Will age be a factor, as mentioned by AhJohn, Economist and PrincessEileen. They said girls above 25 will probably think love isn’t so blind after all. True? Or is it time, as mentioned by min? For the longer the waiting game goes, the higher the tendency for all parties to stop playing it? Or as Deborah said, revenge has a part to play in it.

I quite like Cirnelle’s opinion about Story 1, that is to date OTRFH on a probation basis! Haha… makes me wonder if you give a probation period to anyone who dates you. One thins for sure, the general consensus is that we tend to go for the things we can’t obtain. Like what Daisythecow said, the forbidden fruit is always more enticing. Oh yeah, I am sure Adam will testify to that. Of all comments, I like pink-lollipop’s comment best. Concise yet precise and brutally honest.

Right… I said there was a twist in the 2 tales and you know what? One reader managed to guess it, albeit by chance. Those who didn’t read the earlier entry, click here.

A tail revealed:

The title says it all. There’s only 1 conclusion to the stories. Why? Hehe… because the girl in story 1 and story 2… is the same! Mr.ROFH was dating someone full time and he was cheating on his gf with the girl in the story. That was probably the reason why he only calls when he was free… because it was an affair! (Huei, you got it right!). So yes, the girl rejected Mr.OTRFH to continue to ‘go out’ with a cheating Mr.ROFH, despite him not being able to give her 100% attention.

It went on for a while and the this-is-wrong-we-should-do-it-no-more drama stepped in and the pseudo couple called it off. Ahhh… once off, guess who felt the pinch? Yes, the girl now became the forbidden fruit and Mr.ROFH suddenly feel he wanted her instead of she wanted him. So this guy went and confessed to the official queen to the throne (i.e. the gf la) and the real relationship ended.

Now that the burden of a real relationship is over, Mr.ROFH can officially go out with the girl but does the girl wanna go out with him now?... ……………… I can see many of you guessing ‘No’. But the answer is yes. She didn’t choose Mr.OTRFH after the break up of the pseudo relationship, she didn’t play hard to get. In fact, I think she knows exactly what will happen after their initial ‘break-up’, it’s like a well planned plan. After all, girls can be evil. And no, she is not young, she is way above 25, so I guess age is not exactly a factor. As of to-date, the girl and Mr.ROFH are still together.

What happened to Mr.OTRFH? Oh… as soon as he realised he has no chance, he stopped communication completely and probably moved on to another girl. Guess he wasn’t that Right-For-Her after all. If he didn’t go missing, perhaps he would have been able to capitalise on the break-up of the affair. But then again, I wouldn’t suggest that, being too needy will not land you a girl. Particularly if that girl has already made up her mind on someone else.

So there you have it. Is this what you’ve predicted? Also, Mr.ROFH was initially attached to someone else, and a girl can actually consider a cheating man as the Right-One-For-Her. How about that!! And it was not for revenge, I understand she was really in love.

But what’s the ultimate ending? Happily married with loads of lil ones? … A story yet to be told as it has yet to unfold.

One ZewTy Month

Happy one month to “As Zewt as it gets”!!!!

Ok ok ok ok …I know you all are asking me what are the endings of the 2 tales. Hey, gimme a break, it’s been a month and this blog is the only new year resolution I’ve been able to keep in my entire life. And you know what? I am really enjoying this blogging thing!

Wanna take this opportunity to say thanks to blog readers (cheh… sound like some big time blogger… hehe)… particularly jules, economist, jessica, cirnelle, ahjohn, cosmic abyss, nicole, princess eileen, aput83, juvw, eyhastakenmysoul and junex whom I know drop by quite regularly. Thank you so much! Love you all!

As for those whom I dunno but still drop by… many thanks too! And I love you all too!! (do I sound like a celebrity-wannabe?... nah, who cares…)

Right… some are asking me when is Modern Slavery Part 2 coming out… trust me, it’s on the way. Eyhastakenmysoul, your brainchild, the independent evaluator thingy, it’s definitely in the pipeline.

Right everybody… next entry... the tail to the tales… with a twist….
