Married With Children

When asked, my father replied:
"I want to celebrate my birthday with my children"

He then sat down and ate dinner with his wife and children. Happy 66th Dad!

Among all the values that my parents have taught me and instilled in me, the one I treasure the most is to have unconditional love for dogs, like they do us.

Power To The People!


I was asked today; 

"Why are you so pro PKR suddenly? Why are you so diligently campaigning on Facebook for people to come out and vote? Weren't you the one, a few months ago who said that even if you don't vote you still have rights in this country? You even condemned the Bersih rallies and now you are supporting them?"

I am not pro PKR, I am pro fair, just, appropriate, condign, conscientious, deserved, due, equitable, ethical, fitting, good, honest, honorable, justifiable, lawful, legitimate, merited, moral, proper, requisite, righteous, rightful, scrupulous, stand-up, suitable, true, upright, virtuous... You take your pick! Those are all the definition and synonyms for RIGHT.

Why am I a keyboard warrior on Facebook? Well for one, this is my bloody wall and I'll say whatever the fuck I wanna say! Secondly, I was never a registered voter until I found out in January that I am and have been voting since 2003! Nobody has the rights to take away what's mine! So this term, I'm voting the cowards who've been misusing my votes all these years OUT of parliament!

I still believe that even if you're not voting in the coming PRU13 every single honest, tax-paying CITIZEN of this country has the right to question the administration of Malaysia come tomorrow. Voting gives you the opportunity to have YOUR say as to whom you think can administrate this country well, citizenship gives you the constitutional right to question the manner YOUR country is run! Period! I pay my taxes, I abide by the law and that entitles me to EVERYTHING that's good and honest.

I still don't think the Bersih rallies were a good idea. We were up against a regime of evil called UMNO and Barisan Nasional, do you really think by marching to the Dataran Merdeka would've made a difference? If yes then that's where you and I have a difference of an opinion. Unity and awareness was already there, people were already willing to come out in the masses to stand up for what Bersih stood for. There was no need to for us to walk straight into swinging batons and stomping police brutality. I can tell by the number of my friends who went out for the Bersih Rally that it was filled with smart people. We could've outsmarted the government and the cops! I support what Bersih stands for, I respect Ambiga for having the courage to speak up against the SPR for the way they've been handling the elections all these years.

I'm sick and tired of mainstream media being manipulated. My intelligence is being insulted when I read about 'anak menteri' gets multi-billion dollar contracts. I am broke from buying a Japanese car cause I refuse to buy the crap piece of shit on wheels they call Proton Saga! I cannot afford to buy a house like my father did, or like his father did and that depresses me! I am up to my neck when I see inefficiency and ineffectiveness run rampant in my city when it comes from traffic to planning to buildings to systems and the people behind all these things. I want fear to be instilled in all government servants, if you can't serve the people, you're OUTTA HERE!

So to quote what's been already said by many; JOM UBAH!

Exit Left

"I gotta get the hell outta here!"

What is it lately that all I wanna do after is burn rubber to higher ground? It's like I've just opened fire on enemy grounds and I need to get behind my castle walls for protection...

No walk of shame!

Instaholic

What is it about the digital age and food. I fail to see the correlation but there is one smack right in our faces and thats pretty obvious.

I'll admit to be the first to always wanna whip out my camera before my appetite. Now is the obsession on the platter or photography. Food or pixels? Or is it sociological?

I read somewhere recently that the habit of posting up stuff on be it Instagram or Facebook is to gloat, it's a sense virtual wealth by association. For instance if I had a Ferrari drive by me, I'd wanna take a picture of that bugger and why doesn't a Nissan Sunny get the same reaction, simple; it's simply not fab enough for my Facebook wall.

And the same goes with food. Food is often associated with wealth. You've got some extra change in your pockets, you dine well. If it's that time of the month when everything is tight, you dine like a beggar. That's pretty common among people my age in Kuala Lumpur. And maybe, just maybe the act of pixalating that dinner is actually an act of flaunting ones wealth. 

So now I just feel absolutely horrible for all the times I've taken a picture of scrumptious food and posted it up on social media websites. I know I enjoyed taking the picture, but what's the point to all of it? Didn't benefit me one bit....

The One Flag That Matters!

How does flooding the streets with your political party flags help you win an election?

This is kampung mentality at it's supreme best!

The people gave you a chance to make a difference 5 years ago, if you would've done a good job, right now you can put your feet up, smoke a cigar and just count down the days till you take to office again!

And the same goes to the opposition parties; if the current ruling party are half baked morons who pocketed the people's money, plagued this country with economical downfall, promoted backward thinking, corrupt and should be voted out. Then your facts should speak for itself. Your flags are just a waste of money and is plain simple an eye sore at our neighborhoods!

I see blue flags, I see green flags, I see yellow flags, I see red flags... The one flag that matters shouldn't be one losing out in this rat race!
