Devil's Advocate #3

2010-10-20T03:23:00.006+08:00

There is an old adage floating around: Don't label me.

Many are afraid of being labelled some have gone so far as to get themselves into arguments, spats and even fist fights about being labelled.

"Don't label me! Why must you label?"

So!

DA #3: Being labelled.

I argue that is good and at times, even necessary to label - things, people, emotions, thoughts (everything).

When our brains got to a decent enough size to start forming and recognizing vocal patterns, thus giving birth to language (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Origin_of_language), we haven't stopped labeling things.

When we could, we gave names to things like fire, tree, sky, rain, water, food, safe, danger.

The labeling of these things have helped us as a species survive. We have taught our children using words. Warning them that it is not safe to 'eat' the 'woolly mammoth' without 'mother' or 'father'.

This is how we make sense of the world.

We label the things around us to make it familiar to us. We label to understand the world.

This is why we find it necessary to label people. We want to understand them in relation to ourselves. If I label someone friend - I can have a nice chat with her. If I label someone enemy - I won't even lend the son of a bitch a teaspoon of sugar no matter how much he needed to get that sponge cake made in time for his aunt's funeral.

We label people with the same reason we label everything else - to find order in an otherwise chaotic field of relationships.

Many find labeling means succumbing to a standard or being tied down to a maxim. As if the label defined them.

So what if it does?

What's wrong being called a boy when you indeed have a penis and your chromosomes are XY?

What's wrong being called an asshole when you indeed treat others around you like shit?

What's wrong being called an atheist when you indeed do not believe in a certain deity?

Nothing.

Some label to belittle. I grant that. Some use derogatory terms and the world has heard many.

Faggot. Nigger. Heathen. Slut.

But if you know where you stand, surely you can rebut. Surely you can tell the antagonizer to shove off because this is who you are or argue that their narrow minded view of the world is flawed.

So.

Don't blame others for labeling you. They do, I do, because we need to make sense of you.

As for derogatory terms? Fight back! Don't cower in a corner and plea: Don't label me.

I was quite inspired by one my classmates who posts his portfolio on his facebook so I was thinking organizing my own here on the blog.

This was an A3 3 point perspective concept for my Perspective Studies finals. Did it with pencil at first then I only I overlay with ink. I was going for a spacey-futuristic theme.

A2 colour pencil + gouache mix media illustration for my Illustration Fundamental finals. Had to do a sort of movie poster so i chose the move The Good,The Bad and The Ugly. Took a while.

I hope to upload more soon and compile it to my online gallery --->

Devil's Advocate #2

2010-08-04T10:08:00.005+08:00

This episode of DA is a tad more cerebral.

DA #2: Existence and the Default Position

This topic may have links to my non-belief but leaving deities aside, I think it's a rather interesting topic of discussion. So here it goes.

I present to you one of my favourite logical arguments: Bertrand Russell's Teapot.

In a nutshell: If I told you that there was a teapot orbiting earth and further postulated that this teapot cannot be seen by any telescope known to mankind; would you believe me?

Most probably the answer would be no.

This line of logic is applied to the Loch Ness monster, Santa Claus, unicorns, "real" magic etc.

The question to be asked is Why? Why is it the most common answer to Russell's Teapot "No."?

It's probably because we are creatures of reason and logic. And that is why I argue that the default position for claiming the existence of something is one of non-existence.

Meaning, we do not believe schizophrenics when they claim that they are hearing voices in the night without evidence. Those voices, do not exist until proven.

This same reasoning applies to the criminally charged. As the old adage goes: Innocent until proven guilty.

One reason for this line of thought is the fact that it is illogical and impossible to prove a negative (of course in the context of absolutes, universality and objectivity).

For example, if I claim that there are unicorns in the world, it is my onus to prove it.

It is illogical for me to request OTHERS to prove that there are no unicorns to make the unicorns' existence legitimate.

How can you go about proving that there are NO unicorns? You can't.

But does that mean they exist? Of course not. It is the person who makes the claim who is responsible for justifying it.

However, this proving non-existence can be done under special limitations of course, for example, if I told you that there was a unicorn under my bed, you could very well prove that there wasn't one by looking under the bed.

But when it comes to the universal, absolute existence of anything, it is those who make the claim that have the responsibility in providing evidence for it to make the 'something' objectively existent.

I am obligated to present you substantial evidence for the existence of unicorns for them to be considered to have existed. Otherwise, I'm just the regular nutty, no different from those that believe vampires exist because Stephanie Meyer said so.

Agreed? Disagreed? Lemme know.

Devil's Advocate #1

2010-07-25T22:12:00.001+08:00

I have decided to attempt intelligent discussion; occasioning the trivial and absurd. I call this attempt the Devil's Advocate series!

This is where I play devil's advocate and take points of view and challenge them.

I hope it won't be a one way thing. Just comment and we can continue the discussion!

If you've been watching Astro, you would have come across a lame attempt at a PSA regarding the abandonment of babies, or the throwing away of infants to be more blunt.

The attempt is one of a karoke style, let's get all the celebs we can find and have them sing this emo-ish it's going to crescendo at the end with a strong solo by a woman in the middle type tune.

Now, I am against the throwing away of babies. Hell yes. I think people who do this are murderers and should be locked up (or if they are suffering from post natal depression, a shorter sentence with psychological help).

That aside, just days after I watched the PSA for the n-th time, I heard on the radio that a local government does not agree that sex education shou

ld be taught in schools. Their reasoning behind this: It may encourage underage, pre-marital sex which may lead to a proliferation of infanticide. (not ad verbatim)

So!

Devil's Advocate #1: Sex education in schools

It must be taught! It's illogical to say that by NOT telling teenagers about the effectiveness of contraceptives and propagate the notion of "abstinence is the ONLY way" - that the number of teen pregnancies will drop. There is actually research that proves the contrary:

"Experts from the American Public Health Associatio

n and U.S. Institute of Medicine testified that scientific studies have not found that abstinence-only teaching works to cut pregnancies, sexually transmitted diseases or the age when sexual activity begins." (Reuters)

However, there IS research that shows CONDOMS FUCKING WORK.

We're not really taught sex education here, and that whole chart on contraceptives in the bio text books is hardly counted as sex education.

Funnily enough, contraception is taught in NS. When I went, they showed us how to put on a condom on a banana, or a cucumber, I forget.

I say teach both. Contraception AND abstinence. Show us research, give us proof. Then let US decide. Stop shoving dogma down students' throats (haha double entendre).

People are going to have sex. And when they do, equipped with the knowledge that contraceptives can prevent pregnancies and STDs, maybe THEN, infanticide rates will fall.

Don't just sing it with "peshen" and think you're going to enlighten hormone pumped sexual beings.

I welcome feedback for further discussion!

Short ones, long ones (haha double entendre. again!), feedback of any kind is appreciated.

Facebook

2010-07-17T11:02:00.005+08:00

There is a movie about to be released later this entitled The Social Network. You should be able to guess the movie is about facebook, or rather the creation of it. The movie is basically about the creator Mark Zuckerberg and how Facebook came to become as it is today. Quite dark as you can see the trailer.

The song for this trailer is a cover version of Radiohead's ''Creep''. Beautiful song.

Its done back in 1992 so its quite prehistoric but still very brilliant. If you follow Radiohead, you'll notice Radiohead's sound at this point of their career is quite different from their more recent works but still amazing. I'm quite inspired by their experimental attitude.

That's all for today. I thought of just sharing a piece of info that might interest you people at home/starbucks/lift/MBPJ toilet. Have a good weekend and I'll see you all the next full moon.

"Hello, I'm an aardvark, and this is my snout!"

He does a comedy sketch show with his 3 other mates as well called Cowards.

I know that we are young. and i know that you love me..

2010-06-09T19:20:00.005+08:00

Dud or Genius?

my take?

Lady Gaga's newest controversy dropped last night. Alejandro is as disturbing and mind stimulating as it promised. To be honest, i don't have much to make of it except it's her worldwide statement on her support of gay love. i have a personal opinion that such an issue has been overdone, overrated, and is becoming increasingly passe. (how do you add that dot on top of words?) Gaga definately failed to top herself. (ie. the amazingness that was the Telephone music video)

so speaking as a true lady gaga fan, i am dissapointed. not much to talk about this one. credit to her for the amazing glasses tho. very fashion. tho it was probably a work of some other genius fashion designer... so rather, props to the designer!

the Glee episode on the other hand was inspiring. i loved To Sir with Love. summed my feelings about Glee so well it made me tear. and it takes a lot to shed tears for me these days. good episode!

exams will be over in two weeks. i promise to be the fun-self again post exams.

Love!

Awkward situation

2010-05-30T17:25:00.006+08:00

Today my cousin asked my brother if he could take home our PS2 cause his was broken.

It was such an awkward situation; but in the end my brother said nothing so he took it home all jolly and good. thick skin much?

Honestly, and the PS2 was a gift from my dad when i did well for UPSR ok? it has sentimental value! Why'd you think i left it in a nice packed up box as collection? But i didn't want to say anything because as always, my cousins are living the less fortunate life and i'd be judged as selfish if i said no.

so ok. i honestly don't use the PS2. but it's like a bitter twang behind my throat. why do they always have to take everything we have away? first it was the thousand dollar blender by aunt "borrowed" from my mum, also my dad's gift to her. it was freaking kenwood stainless steel ok? and now if my mum wants to use it, she has to borrow it back or use her lousy old plastic one. why does my mum love torturing herself like that?

and why are my extended family so thick skinned! GRR.

awkward day. really

we have to literally hide everything when they come now is it? what is wrong with them. and sometimes i feel judged by my own parents (actually, just mum since it's her family) for feeling like this; which is the part i hate most. what is her problem? I am perfectly entitled to be upset over giving my things away. i have issues with that.

so yeah, i am aware that if any of them chances upon this post i am so screwed. but right now, i couldn't care less.

PS : and the least he could do was ask me as well. the damn thing is technically mine.

Dreams? they aren't supposed to be easy

2010-05-19T18:45:00.002+08:00

i am very stressed out right now.

...

how did i let myself get to this point?

Compromise

2010-05-04T00:24:00.010+08:00

Oh no! Can it be? I did a tag. Well the thing is that I saw this tag on a link a friend gave to me
and I thought it was quite interesting because ;

1. I don't have to answer any of the questions because iTunes will answer it for me. So its not like your usual tags with the, your best friend and stuff where you have to answer with your own truthful answers. This is totally random, thus possibly totally hilarious. Its kinda like those silly depend on destiny kinda test you know e.g. love calculator.

2. Although it is random, its kinda personal too since its coming from my music playlist. But if you have been immune to my music-evangelism, then this wouldn't matter to you anyway.

I mean I was going to do it anyway even if I didn't publish it on the blog (you know writing it in a piece of paper then burn it when I'm done or on a temporary Word document) but I was thinking what is the point then.

Without further ado, bring on the rotten tomatoes!

one week is all i am getting, and i spent the first two days lazing around playing FINAL FANTASY 13. in my defence, i've resisted the game for a whopping 2 months, which is an amazing feat for someone like me :) and and! the game is so pretty, i find myself in awe for most of the CGs, and even simple walkthrough i spent an appreciable minute enjoying the details in the sky and stuff. the environment is simply breathtaking!

i guess all that excuses the time i've wasted playing it :D

sidetrackking, i'm a little worried about Sumative. it's coming up in less than 6 weeks; what with assignments piling up; i'm afraid i won't have enough time to cram it all in. the biggest problem tho, it's not knowing what to expect in the exam. very scary. i feel like i'm catching up alright so far; but of course the nagging feeling at the back of my mind lingers...

gah. who cares.

sidetrack 2 : i'd love to share this video with you guys, simply because it moves me so much. Christina knows how to pull the right strings.

Walk Away

2010-04-26T20:19:00.002+08:00

And it hurts my soul
Cos I can't let go
All these walls are caving in
I can't stop my suffering
I hate to show that I've lost control
Cos I, I keep going right back
To the one thing that I need to walk away from

Crystal's dad passed away yesterday afternoon. the funeral was one of the most surreal ones i've ever attended. it had peace, above all things; and such a strong sense of loss i had to look away from the house to keep from crying.

be strong Crystal, our prayers are with you.

i left my head and my phone on the dance floor

2010-04-18T19:55:00.002+08:00

i have an eye (cornea to be exact) abrasion on my left eye and its KILLING me.

the symptoms?

1. it feels as if a large piece of particle is in your eyelid, to which you try extensively to wash it out. to no avail obviously! because there's nothing there.

2. you lacrimate excessively. blurring vision.

3. you get migraines simply because it's so irritating to have something in your eye.

i haven't actually gone to the opthalmologist, but i'm pretty sure it's a corneal abrasion. i got some medication for relief, and so far it's working well. the eye feels as if it's healing... it's just sometimes it gets so irritating i feel like pulling my eye out.

i am badly in need of some love now :( sakit tau.

2010-04-12T00:16:00.002+08:00

I don't know if you guys heard...

I read this on Ines' profile on Facebook. It is scary and very saddening. Just wanted to share.

All this political, ISA "things" we like to complain about but don't really "feel"...

Is real.

how do you sleep at night, sir?

By Inessa Irdayanty

the latest news is, as written by Star Online,

The 800gm of “powder” found at actor Khaeryll Benjamin Ibrahim’s condominium unit in Kepong is not cocaine, said the police.

“The 800gm of powder confiscated was not cocaine and we have requested the Chemistry Department to conduct tests again,”.

why the retest is necessary, i do not know. just like how they needed about 10 plain clothed cops to rearrest my brother after the bail was posted, i do not know. and as much as i try to comprehend, i can't.

i'm just hoping that all of this end soon enough, before my mother breaks down - she has been very strong about this; before my father speaks up - we all know how quiet he usually is; before my sister loses her patience - God knows she already has very little of that; and before my 4-year-old nephew is old enough to realise what is going on, and have these bullshit questions running through his head the way they run through mine.

thank you very much to all of you out there who are supporting us, praying for us, or at the very least ask us how we are. it means a lot to us, trust me.

one favour i would like to ask from all of you, is to please read the note below, written by my sister Elza Irdalynna, and to perhaps re-post this, if you may. please, and thank you. God bless.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On March 11th, he was arrested at his apartment's parking lot in Segambut. Police brought him to an apartment he rented in Kepong, and after entering, claimed that in that residence, he possessed 800grams of cocaine, and 140grams of methamphetamine, and accused him of processing and trafficking, putting him under the risk of being charged under Section 39B, which carries the death penalty.

On March 12th he was remanded for 7 days. When my parents inquired if we can engage a lawyer, the Investigation Officer told us "No need".

On March 17th, after our family waited more than an hour, we were allowed to see him for the very first time, under supervision.
Again my mother asked if we should get him a lawyer, again the I.O advised against it, claiming "Lawyer tak boleh buat apa-apa sekarang. Buang duit je. (Lawyer can't do anything now. It's simply a waste of money)."

On March 18th, his remand was extended another 7 days. The magistrate inquired why there was no lawyer present for him, and whether he was made aware he had the right to a counsel of his choice. He replied "No." Therefore, he requested for one, and only nine hours later, did the I.O call to inform my mother, who promptly engaged Amer Hamzah Arshad.

But the very next day, the police used their Executive authority under Section 28A that vetoed his right to a counsel. All requests made by our lawyer to visit him was denied.

Only after we complained to SUHAKAM, did the police allow Amer to visit him.
On the last day of his remand.
After the investigations were concluded.
For only 15 minutes.

On March 25th, he was brought to court, and charged under Section 12(2) for possession of 0.24grams of metaphetamin in his Segambut residence. Nothing the police claimed they found in the Kepong residence, the cocaine and shabu that was "already packaged to be distributed" or the so called "cocaine processing mini-lab" was brought to court.

Because there WAS none.

He was released on bail. A trial date was set. He was so close to being free, and seeing his 4 year old son again.
But as he was signing the papers of his release, the Plainclothes were outside waiting.

Not two steps after he came out of the bail department, without any explanation, they re-arrested him. Amer was restrained from protecting him, and only after Amer repeatedly asked them to show their I.D, did they do so. Still, no explanation was given to the family. We were merely told to go to the Headquarters and speak to Inspector Kang. The same guy who claimed my brother possessed the cocaine they NEVER found.

He never saw us, he was "in a meeting." He wasn't too occupied to give the press a statement, but was unavailable to see us.
We were told by the new I.O for this case, and the DSP (the guy who signed the papers denying my brother the right to a counsel) that they are detaining him for 60 days under the Special Preventive Measures Act (LPK), after which, they could further detain him for 2 years if found guilty.

Guilty according to THEM. For under this act, it is a detention without trial, like the Internal Security Act. Any information gathered from "witnesses" and "investigations" will never be disclosed to him or his lawyer, or the court. He will also not be able to defend himself against any allegations. Under this act, he will never have his day in court.

On March 25th, my brother, Ben, was denied his Constitutional rights.

For 2 weeks, our family went through hell. Sleepless nights, press waiting outside our door, Ben had asthma attacks after the police delayed themselves in acquiring the requested medication for 3 days, Mama, who is a cancer patient herself, suffered chest pains and lost her voice.
We felt it was all worth it, for we would be able to have him back.

But now, a new nightmare has begun.
Whether or not Ben is guilty, should not be for the Police to decide. If they HAD the evidence to strengthen their warrant for re-arrest, why was it not brought to court? Why is Ben not given a chance to defend himself? How can we ever know the authenticity of these so called witnesses and their statements? If there were ANY to begin with?

Under this act, I could simply be caught for any crimes of drug offences the police accuse me of, because they can claim they have enough information (even if they have absolutely nothing) and detain me. For 60 days, for 2 years, and even EXTEND it after.

Acts like this and the ISA are licenses for ARBITRARY arrest and detention. Anytime. Anywhere. Anybody.

My family and Amer will not back down. We will fight for Ben's right. We will speak up for all of those who were silenced before us, who will be silenced hereafter.

But we seek your help. In any way at all, help us fight this. Re-post this, write on your blogs, write to your local representative, to our newspapers, and together we shall use our voice, our art, our space, to stand up not just for Ben, but for all our rights.

now she's a bad bad girl !

PS : yeap. my lappie's female

In case any of you were wondering

2010-04-01T23:43:00.003+08:00

I'm doing great in IMU :) i've made many new friends at a rate faster than imaginable. haha

details? pictures speak louder than words!

so yeah, medical school turned out to be not as boring as i'd expected.

the things i like about imu?

1. free time :)

I know i was complaining about this just several posts back, but the free time is really useful for revision (for those disciplined enough to revise) and to catch up and make new friends

2. my groupies

group 13 is really awesome. it is no exaggeration that they definately live up to the standards of my high school mates. i am so glad i have such quality friends this early in university. 5 years don't seem that long anymore! :)

3. personal development

the more i grow up, the more i don't give a fuck i become. coming to imu is the furthest i've gone with this philosophy. and it's made me immensely happy. i do what i want to now. i act the way i am with you guys, on the very first day. the result? i make friends almost instantly. personality is convincingly always the key :)

of course, some things i don't like.

1. my jeans :(

casual clothing becomes possible only on weekends, even then i am out doing some activity or the other, requiring uniform... i did NOT spend a whooping rm180 to keep my Zara skinnies in the closet =(

2. my shoes :(

I actually can count the amount of times i've worn my new Vans. They're still NEW. it has inhibited me from getting that pair of NIKE shoes i heart.

3. my lack of formal wear :(

i hate spending money on formal wear. it's just not my thang. casual is my comfort zone. i guess in this aspect, i've picked the wrong profession.

omg. everything i dislike about imu is fashion-orientated! not bad!

and oh oh! i want a cover for my macbook la guys ><>

love love love. gdnite!

telephone??

Good stuff. "Practically" on holidays now. I emphasize practically, have 1 final class on wednesday. Perspective studies, futuristic platform/dungeon/crystal chamber. Hope it will be good.

2010-03-23T11:35:00.002+08:00

i am supposed to be studying but i am procrastinating..

one complaint about IMU : we have too much frigging free time!!!!

Do they know its March (already!!??) ?

2010-03-09T10:18:00.004+08:00

Holy cow. Breathe. In. Out. Out. In. Oh em gee.. can you all believe it! It is already the 2nd week of March already yet the memory of being stuck in a tunnel on new year's eve is as fresh as a uncle Lim's roti bakar. (of course I wasn't there but for the lack of a better example, ya' know). What's the deal wei?

My friend had this theory that the Earth is rotating faster because we are nearer to the Sun which explains why time is moving faster than before. A bit ludicrous but I'm starting to think that it MIGHT make sense. Seriously, weeks come and go like those stuff you flush down the toilet. I'm reaching the end of my semester already. After this? Year 2, Sem 1...

Seriously time has been passing by too fast for my liking. Already I am short of time to deal with TOA (tons of assignment, get it?), wishing that there are 48hours in a day, instead now somehow time has been passing by even faster.

Each of us are reaching a sort of checkpoint in our lives, Jal is dealing with A-levels finals (right?), Ming started IMU-IMU and I'm as ever, wasting my health with overnighters (a few are coming up next week BTW) as Ming always seem to complain, we are so busy no time to hang out.

However, a favourable end to this is nowhere in sight, as the Daft Punk song goes "harder, better, faster, stronger", I think as time goes faster, we have to work harder, improving making ourselves better that we maybe stronger for our next stage of life. Woah that's quite a big chunk of turd, good turd though you must admit. Anyway cheer up with this....

As Daft Punk says it, in all their humanorobotic glory,

our.work.is.never.over

Maybe this Friday we can hang? Let me know, in the mean time, ciao!

Gaga

2010-02-22T22:06:00.002+08:00

how do you guys put youtube videos here? ;(

anyways. you guys have to see this interview. What people don't understand is it's not only her music i'm totally crazy about it, it's her sense of style and how she does anything she wants without the slightest give a damn what others think. a true true artist. LOVE her.

click me.

*referring to Gaga back in Catholic School*

Host : How did the nuns react? did they like your music? Did they go ahh..?
Gaga : Well my music was different in high school... i was singing about love... you know, things i don't care about anymore.

she has so many other moments in other interviews, but i felt this captured the essence of what it really meant to live the way you want to and just don't give a fuck about others.

you go gaga.

xx

day 1 was really boring. sat around and chatted with alicia for ages (nice catching up) saw Jonathan Ng and Michelle (the one who left to Sri KL rmb her?) so it was like mega flashback. they're in my intake.

CK. ur pics too dark la

thank you for the word Jal.

it felt good to give it a name, i am relieved at the understanding it brings

never buy cute things

2010-02-10T15:15:00.004+08:00

this is how time passes in a day at office with nothing to do.

i get in 30minutes + (earliest 9.20am) late, which burns about 30 minutes of my supposed working time

then, i take 10 minutes to make myself a hot steaming mug of Milo with oats, and i take my time sipping it at the pantry until it's completely drained. in this case, the hotter the better. it takes way longer to drink that way.

another 10 minutes spent on turning the computer on and logging everything in (msn, gmail, facebook, tumblr...etc.) i might consider singing up for twitter soon just for something else to log into.

on a good day, suzen will be online on gmail and i spent another 30 minutes telling her how awesome Lady GaGa is and asking when she's coming back from HK. I repeat the question and statement every time we chat and she lets me cause she's such a good friend and i <3 her and she knows i'm bored till i'm fucked.

then it's lunchtime. i text several people that i want to meet, but they're all busy so i tapao lunch and have it under a tree in a nearby park where a bird poops inches away from my new Vans hi-tops and God Bless the bird for it's amazing precision or i would have shot it without a gun.

i get back from lunch. time trickles by terribly slow. there's nobody on msn to chat with, cuz everyone's effing taking a nap away from the afternoon glare that can melt ur effing rm 50 SPF6million lotion-dont-mess-with-me. not to digress, i also go on facebook and the works craving updates..

and then it's 2 more hours till it's time to go home. I run out of things to do, so I open Windows Words seeking inspiration from my boring day to write something interesting.

and this. this is all i can come up with.

i guess there's only so much you can do from a very boring day. don't any of you get these aimless days where you're just waiting to get home and then suddenly you've got a million things to do and not enough time?

24 hours is enough time for life in a day, we just spent too much of it on obligations.

not that i'm obliged to work. i just need the cash to keep up with my cravings for clothing, food and travel. but considering the amount of time i waste to get these joys, i wonder whether it's all worth it.

yes it is ming. don't worry. when you're on that far away vacation you will thank your marbles for persevering.

one more thing, an explanation to my title. my effing green headphones always break down at 4pm.

WHY. iS. THiS?? music is the only thing i have left, don't desert me T.T

Short Script #1: Bus Stop

2010-02-09T01:08:00.003+08:00

BUS STOP.

BOY: You should start texting me.

GIRL: What?

BOY: You should send me an sms.

GIRL: I’m sorry, but do I know you?

BOY: All the more reason to text one another. We can get to know each other.

GIRL: (Looks around.)

BOY: What’s your number? Mine’s 016-

GIRL: Wait!

BOY: What?

GIRL: You can’t just approach anybody and start giving out your hand phone number.

BOY: My house number is 787-

GIRL: No!

BOY: What now?

GIRL: You can’t just give people your number! Mobile, office, home or anything.

BOY: Why not?

GIRL: It’s creepy and weird. I don’t even know you.

BOY: Won’t texting and calling each other help remedy that problem?

GIRL: Yeah, it will, maybe, I don’t know. You’re not following protocol that’s the problem.

BOY: There’s a procedure?

GIRL: You first introduce yourself. A name would be nice. Where you’re from, what you do. That sort of thing?

BOY: Oh.

GIRL: You don’t know this?

BOY: No, not really.

GIRL: So you just go up to random strangers and give them your numbers in the hopes of becoming friends?

BOY: Pretty much.

GIRL: Well, you can go away now.

PAUSE.

BOY: What’s yours?

GIRL: My what?

BOY: Your number.

GIRL: I’m not giving you my number.

BOY: But without it I can’t send you a text.

GIRL: That’s the idea. You’re bright.

BOY: It’ll be a good, I promise.

GIRL: What’ll be good?

BOY: The text I’ll send to you.

GIRL: What do you mean the text’ll be good.

BOY: The sms. The one that I’ll send to you when you give me your number; it’ll be deep and full of meaning with lots of deep and full of meaning stuff like wells and dictionaries.

GIRL: (STARES.) Go away.

BOY: See. The text’ll be funny too.

GIRL IGNORES.

Come on. Just give me the first few numbers.

GIRL: And what, might I ask are you going to do with just the first few numbers? Guess the rest?

BOY: Exactly.

GIRL: WHAT?

BOY: Can you please stop replying with “what?” all the time?

GIRL: You’ll guess?

BOY: Yes.

GIRL: The other seven digits. You’ll guess them?

BOY: Yes.

GIRL: (STARES CURIOUSLY.) Zero one six.

BOY: Hmm this is going to be tough.

GIRL: Idiot.

BOY: Zero one six three one one five seven two two.

GIRL: How did you – Who set you up to this? – This is a prank.

BOY: The text’ll be shocking and surprising too. Full of wonder and mystery and-

GIRL: Shut up about the text. How did you guess my number?

BOY: I just strung a few digits together. So happened it was your number. Now will you text?

GIRL: So you just plucked seven random digits.

BOY: And it so happened to be your number, correct.

GIRL: How- the- probability would be -

BOY: It’s low.

GIRL: (REALIZATION.) Oh… you’re a mathematics person thingy aren’t you? You probably ran all the numbers and arrived at a conclusion or something like that didn’t you?

BOY: No. I’m not a mathematics person thingy.

GIRL: Then how in the world did you get my number right?

BOY: Luck. Chance. Fate. Destiny.

GIRL: Bullshit.

BOY: Look. Does it matter? Does it really matter how I guessed your number correctly?

GIRL: Yes.

BOY: Why?

GIRL: Cause it is!

BOY: I thought you would be different.

GIRL: In comparison to what?

BOY: Other girls.

GIRL: You do this to other girls as well?

BOY: Look! I like you okay? So I thought I’d just come over and get your number. But – never mind.

BOY GETS UP AND WHISTLES AS THOUGH HAILING FOR TRANSPORT.

GIRL: Wait. Where are you going.

A BUS STOPS. BOY GETS ON. BUS LEAVES.

CURTAIN.

END.

We know its February when MY.FM (omg so freaking lala) missed our daily WAN CHAN and FIR songs. all replaced with booming, annoying, cheerful, CNY lala music.

oh joy.

why is the CHINESE music industry so annoying sometimes? The taiwanese/japanese/koreans seem to be doing alright. why did the talent miss one whole country?

anyway. this post is mainly directed to remind you both of the MONTH. PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO THE MONTH. in case you're berry busy no time to check. PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO THE MONTH ESPECIALLY THIS WEEKEND.

is the number of stares i got today from a short walk to get some eggtarts, applying the rule of the 'leng chai' walk.

i first heard of this rule from some friends in college, (i added to some of them myself), and it's just a few pretty basic stuff you've probably noticed, but never bothered to label before :

1. Walk with your cheeks clenched.
- by that, i mean the cheeks below your pelvis, tho if you have chubby upper cheeks, you might consider clenching those as well (more bone structure yo)

2. Stare into space, even if you meet someone you know
- everyone has committed this crime before, all you need is to do it intentionally. all the time. never keep your focus on one spot for too long tho, you just look insecure that way.

3. May eye contact
- preferably until people get awkward and look away. this is a real self esteem booster. i enjoy doing it.

4. Back straight, smile ready to be flashed.
- this one speaks for itself. ever met a leng chai hunch-backed and bitter?

well, the rules seem to work. people really did stare. it wasn't until i walked past the huge mirror back to my office that i noticed the reason. i looked constipated. simple case of trying to do too many things at once from a simple act of walking.

i miss huey ee ;(

when she's not around, i burn lunch hours doing all these kinda stupid crazy stuff. and the best part? when huey ee's around, heck, we don't need rules. We get 50 stares a day without even trying.

save me and have lunch with me tmr pls you bitches... i'm running out of lame ideas.

xx

i. am. addicted. to. GLEE.

define addiction :
i replayed the HALO/I'M WALKING ON SUNSHINE mashup minimum 20 times (i didn't actually count, rough figure) until i got so sick of it. later, i dreamt i was singing it back in high school, huge baggy ugly uniforms and all complete.

AHH!!!!!!

GLEE IS SO AWESOME ;(

provided, FINN is such a lousy singer. my brother was right to criticize him. "He sounds like they've put a net in front of the mike laa". On pointing it out, i noticed it as well. he had another one of those random brilliant moments i guess.

but everything else? GOSH SO AWESOME. i LOVE LOVE LOVE PUCK. he is SEX on a mohawk!!!!!!!!!! VOICE? STELLAR. FACE? STELLAR. BODY? OMFGBBQWTFZOMG. SMILE? WEDDING BELLS MUCH????

where can y0u buy one of those yo? (Estee, for your birthday XP)

now i want to be a weirdo -.- and join the GLEE club. AND you all know my views on weirdoes with bad fashion sense. how the world has changed.

catch it on starworld. or just dl it. i know JAL has seen it way before me. so this is to you CHEEKS!

xoxoxoxo

i'm begging to suspect that Jal has blocked me on msn for obvious reasons. haha

Have you ever seen a ship sinking? I would think it would be a slow and painful process watching a huge cruise liner sinking and people are scrambling out and there is fire and the fire reflects itself on the ocean surface and in the eye of the passengers save those who have relatives and loved ones deep down in the dark blue sea; cause in their eyes it's probably tears and tears as we all know are not really good reflectors on account of them being very runny.

I haven't.

But probably felt the same way after hearing about today's bomb attacks on churches.

The government is awesome in tackling the situation just splendid! They want to crackdown on suspects using the ISA (Whoopeee!) and they want to crackdown on websites "encouraging" illegal demonstrations (WHOPPPEEEE!) And guess which websites and who are the people going to be caught in this huge Idontgiveafuck fishing net the government is releasing?

Just guess.

Bloody fucking hell, do they think we are stupid and can't see through this ridiculous facade. Do they think people are going to fall for this false sense of heroism and sacrifice they will probably spew all over the place.

"Of course we had to crack down on sites like malaysiakini and blogs by opposition members/supporters. It's for the better good."

We're not dumb! We can see this is a bloody excuse to shut down opposition channels and platforms. We know after what happened today (probably fucking orchestrated by the government themselves. which makes it even scarier and more disgusting) that demonstrations regarding false imprisonment and human rights and murders swept under the carpet will never see light again.

What's worse, is all of this - The bombings, the restriction of the use of the word Allah in bibles, it could all be a ploy. Just mere distractions to keep us rakyat entertained while they just fuck us from behind.

It's rape.

Tonight's dinner was grim. Dad and I were shocked and stunned and depressed. I swear I could see tears in his eyes. The topic of the night was this country, what is happening, what has happened. And it's shameful and appalling. To tell you what I'm so mad about or what my dad is so mad about...I wouldn't even know where to start. Seriously. How do I start? Altantuya? ISA? Teoh's murder? Censorship of main medias? Racism in politics? Corruption?

I use to tease my dad about always talking about politics with his friends and the uncles. I use to tell him he was exaggerating. He's not. That's what's fucked up. He's not.

Bagaikan kacang lupakan kulit. Something like that. I wanted to do that so badly today. Just wash my hands clean, say I GIVE UP OKAY! YOU WIN! DO WHATEVER YOU WANT WITH THIS GAME YOU CALL MALAYSIA!

But when I think about it. If I don't care, a rakyat, a citizen of a country which I love so much, which I call home, if I don't care,

Who fucking will?

Jal. Do you still have that epic SMS i sent you when I failed my driving test or did it die along with your smexy-blue-flip-DanHumphrey-Motorola?

pls pls pls pls tell me you have a copy of it somewhere.

I had so much free time today (boss MIA due to FLU i managed to spread to him over the week), I literally read a year's worth of Rachel Yau's blog. No, i am not stalking. I am just merely looking for amusement and her blog is amusement. if you want to read, click on click.

that was when i stumbled across her post about failing driving, and I was reminded of how frustrated i was when i failed. i threatened to cabut the JPJ's janggut wei. Damn ganas. And the amount of swearing i did, this lifetime shall not be enough for forgiveness.

and now, nearly 2 years later, i am still a disaster of an excuse for driving.

i am NOT proud.

forward the sms to me if you ever find it. EPIC-ness.

Capsicum 1

2010-01-08T01:24:00.004+08:00

All of a sudden I had the urge to layan my tablet for the first time in don't know how long. I guess this is the first time I'm actually using it properly, and not just unpacking, installing it, draw a few lines and shove it aside for another 6 months.

This time around I've been more productive I guess. I thought I should train and get used to the tablet as it is quite hard. Not very used to it yet. This is what I came up with. I couldn't draw a figure cause it just ends up quite screwed up so I thought of the easiest thing to draw/paint, a capsicum! So here is it is,

I kinda like it. Compared to my real life paintings, i think this is better. But then the experience is different so its hard to compare but the steps and methods are the same I guess. Real life acrylic isn't as smooth as this I suppose. I used Corel Painter for this. I have to point out the lack of brush options for this as well so I made do with what I had.

Process...

1. Sketch (pencil)

2. Lighting study

3. Underpaint

4. Colour layer

5. Finishing

Well if you're not too enthusiastic about it because its not too realistic and too detailed, it is not suppose to be. It is meant to look somewhat accurate and realistic from a distance so yea, just to add a disclaimer/warning/explanation first haha. Did it quite fast I think, definitely not 4 hours.

If Lautner and Swift got married....

2009-12-31T10:11:00.002+08:00

they'd both be Taylor Lautner!

to which their kids in the future would go :

"Hi meet my mum, Taylor Lautner!"
-kid shakes hand with Teardrops on my Guitar star, completely in awe until.....
"Hi meet my dad, Taylor Lautner!"

HAHAHHAHAHA. (kids break down in laughter)

i love them and all lah, but the combination is just pure slapstick. i got the the wind that they broke up (were they even official to begin with?) at work on msn news! but what i found most interesting wasn't the news itself, but comments the very very bitter public made. the arguments got so out of hand, the comments weren't about the Lautners anymore...

some even ended up asking each other to jump off a building and going back to school, just to name the cleaner ones. haha

the epic-est comment would be this :

"Phew!"

HAHHHAHAA. i'm choking already

wo beh tahan ahhhhhhhh!

it takes 30 minutes, two restarts, and several loud bangs from my hand to fire up my desktop at work. and now it's still lagging -.-

my warranted computer at home also went on holiday. it's going to take nearly a month to bring it back. GRR. WO BEH TAHAN AH!

...

i had a good christmas this year! family was very in the mood to celebrate, spent saturday at Huey Ee's baking our hearts out (GTK!), and Avatar was such a good movie! ;D

CK, relax lah. I agree HD can be pretty ugly due to the clarity (nothing real life is actually THAT clear). Even movies look too clear on HD. But it's all about getting used to. Quit being an old man and embrace the technology!

A Part of Me Died Today

2009-12-25T23:08:00.002+08:00

A part of me died today. Like anyone who has experienced some part of them dying, I feel very sad.

I watched Avatar today, but before I watched Avatar, I was walking around wasting time before the movie started. That was when I found out FFXIII is already out. No not the yeng alot of swords FFXIII, but it is the girl one. At that point I was quite happy and I immediately texted Ming hopefully giving him enough peer pressure to force him to buy.

Then as I walked further, I saw another game shop showing the trailer for the game. And that's when it happen. As I walked closer to take a closer look at the game in its full glory... 3 words naturally came out of my mouth in utter disbelief.. "It's so ugly" and I can assure so I wasn't very secretive about my opinion.

I mean I was just so shocked, drowning in disbelief but most of all just felt so sad because the two major elements of the game or rather any game on the PS3 actually self-destructed the game. I'm talking about the PS3's potential for awesome graphics and Blu-Ray. What I meant when I said that the game was so ugly was that it is so real that it looks so fake, so ugly. Jal would know what I'm talking about since we shared similar thoughts at the Blu-Ray movies we watched.

The graphics, design and art is everything what you expect from Square-Enix. I'm sure despite the poor sales as Ming mentioned, it will go on to be a big hit. However, I honestly think Blu-Ray isn't going to do games or even movies any good, at least in my book. When I watched the trailers and stuff in SD(standard definition) everything look so good, it felt natural, familiar somehow. But compare FFXIII with older FF titles, the feeling its just not there I feel.

I'm sure you guys probably don't get what I mean and it is probably this opinion will only be mine alone, but it really adds to my disgust of the HD revolution, all these hyper-real nonsense. Argh. Bring back SD, bring back the old times!

See la next year,they all sure CMI

I wanted to post something that was more pop-music-thrashing like but I was thinking, I should be less confrontational. So yea, introducing Metric! I was googling one of their tracks just now that I heard on FIFA10 and explore abit more and I can really tell you they are very nais indeed. Here are some starter packs for you all. The lead plays the synths! =D

Christmas Wish List

2009-12-07T15:45:00.004+08:00

it's that time of the year again, and I'd be surprised if i even get one item on my list. But i'm going to write it all down anyways.

1. become leaner. notice how i've stopped saying thinner cuz everybody keeps telling me im anorexic just because i've stopped eating rice on a daily basis. i just want to be leaner! keyword is in italics, stop obssessing people!

2. skinnies dari topman (the gorgeous and very rare shade of blue) a whooping rm199. so not worth it, but so craving. PLEASE GO ON DISCOUNT. it's all im asking. ;)

3. a cloth hoodie that is so creamy soft it will kill you. i saw one on a model at tumblr, and have been looking out for one ever since. saw one at topman and AX, but both not thin enough. i am oh-so-loving the collar design. can't seem to post the pic here....

4. plane ticket to the UK/ NZ. i want to go away for a month on a backpack trip. can some windfall PLEASE fund me.

I so didn't know Tiesto released his new album last month. I only knew when I heard Gaz(short for Gareth Emery) played a snippet of one of the tracks from Tiesto's album on his podcast. It was a collabo track with Calvin Harris and I lurved it, it is total bomb. So cool.

"Getting" the new album now so can't review yet. However, Tiesto posted all of his new tracks form his new album(Kaleidoscope) on youtube so can head over there to check it out. Here is the track with Calvin Harris titled "Century". Enjoy!

God help me.

10 minutes, is the amount of time left that I have to endure before i am allowed to leave this God-forsaken office for the day. i hate working in an office, it's so suffocating for the burst of talent that is moi.

CK. there are quite a few good movies out isn't it? Princess and the Frog, New Moon (*cough* i just HAD to join the american bandwagon), 2012 (i know i am SUPER-outdated, but busy child like me... haih) and A Christmas Carol.

too bad none of them are your cup of tea. hahahahahahahaha--ha-uhm.

aiyoh. damn boring la me.

good. i just finished the last 10minutes! time to go home.

tmr public holiday! it has not smelled as good as this before~~~

Epic Fail

2009-11-26T11:41:00.003+08:00

Can anyone please tell me what happened to Where The Wild Things Are? Isn't it suppose to be screening already? So why isn't it screening? Why can't I find it in any showlistings? WHY WHY WHY!!

But that's not the story of today's epic fail. Instead, the honour goes to Cineleisure Damansara for putting up the poster for the movie 9 for the movie Nine. Just so you know, those are two seperate and VERY VERY different movies. One is titled 9 (in numerical form) is an animated movie set in a post apocalyptic setting with dolls as its main characters while Nine (in alphabetical form) is a movie that stars Nicole Kidman and it has a sort of musical theme to it, I can't elaborate since I didnt really read the description.

This little error got my hopes up because I knew the movie was not going to be screened in Malaysia and I really wanted to watch it but timchi Cineleisure can be so noob to mix up the movie posters. I hope they didn't advertise with the wrong posters in their cineplex as well. Imagine you bought a ticket to see a chunted animation about post-apocalypse and end up seeing Nicole Kidman doing burlesque, live-action. Well actually, it would be a good surprise... but but then that doesn't stop them(Cineleisure) grabbing the "Epic Fail of the Day" award.

But then you could say that it is very confusing also(not to me) if you didn't know that both existed.

Sigh... where have all the good movies gone?

I've recently discovered and benefited from the benefits of the ancient art of research and sketching. This two ancient techniques seeks to help the individual to first fill up their lake with creative juices and then it helps the individual overcome high walls of creativity blocks through having a rough plan before actually beginning world domination.

I'm here to share some of the joy that I have encountered through meditating these 2 wonderful mantras.

Is it me or is google up to no good again? Just now when I went to the google search engine, it was blank except for the google logo, the query bar and the 2 buttons. After I move my mouse over the page, all the other stuff then appears. Is this happening to you?

Anyways, I've been busy, like real busy, like really really busy. However, I'm not as busy as compared to some of my classmates, because apparently when busy-ness get's to you, this happens.

All you amigos might not have noticed, but while all of you were having your good times, eating sushis and watching meatballs above everything else, the chunted Arctic Monkeys had released their new album called Humbug. Clearly adopting a different style but quite nice actually with already 2 songs are on my repeat-until-i-puke playlist.

Here is one of the songs. I dedicate this to Yong Ming. It's ok :-)

i don't see why i can't take up a part-time right now. all these wasted time; waiting for each paper weekly is such a bummer. i dare not suggest to my parents tho, sure kill kao me. already my Dad gave me the once-over for not memorizing my exam time table like the old-give.a.shit.about.everything.anal.uptight.perfect.writing-little.spaz named old yongming.

parents ain't embracing the new i'm telling yoooo

Futurismus

2009-10-18T05:51:00.005+08:00

This week has been rooouuuggghhhh. I stayed over my friends place for 2 nights on Monday and Tuesday night finishing up work and this week will look set to be the same. But it definitely has been exciting.

Firstly, there was the hours we laboured through the night. It is definitely more fun to do work with company. Then on Wednesday we decide to give ourselves a pat on the back and went for steamboat at Yuen's. Quite fun hanging out with all of them and soon to find that some of my classmates are very funny. Some are funny like me(almost) and they are others who are "The Office" funny.

However on that same night, disaster strucked. It was around 10pm when we were sitting around and then we saw this deck of cards. Naturally there is only one thing to do, CDD. But CDD wasn't really fun because there was nothing involved. No money, no risk, no punishment, until we had the splendid idea of having using pushups as bets. Minimum 5 pushups, maximum 50 pushups. With our new found currency, we decided to switched to blackjack instead. And the rest as they say, was history.

90 pushups isn't funny. But, what was funny was how my friend tried to squirm away from doing 250 pushups. He only did 100, and owes another 110(after much sympathy and discount) which he negotiate to be "paid off" via installments. As for myself, the effects of 90pushups kicked in not so long after. My pectorialis major was stiff, my diaphragm area was stiff, my right quadriceps was stiff and I couldn't sit straight or bend my right arm without sounding like I was in labour.

However, that didn't stop me or any of us from our next agenda, LAN PARTY! Oh yea, 2 on 2 DotA. Because most of my friends are from outstation, they had rented rooms in the houses in the housing area opposite my college. Each one of them had a desktop , some laptops and some even both. So we just hooked up the wireless router and we were good to go. It wasn't exactly a very pro game but it was definitely fun. It's hard to describe this feeling but playing with friends on LAN somehow is just a whole different experience altogether and a good one at that.

The next two days were slightly more relaxing but we were only in denial that we have actually a big pile of work to do but again we had fun doing it together and the advantage of doing work together with them, which I discovered, was that we were able to give each other comments and help each other, such as setting up a spontaneous mini photoshoot studio in one of my friends bedroom for example. This leads me to the current project that I am working on and its due Monday.

The project is to create 4 portraits of ourselves, each with different requirements. The below are the works I came up with.

You've probably seen something like this before from me. I used the same technique but you could say that this probably the best piece I came up with using this technique. I went further and added the colour gradient, giving it a very beautiful sort of retro and that colour spectrum you see in those pictures of computer chips from like Intel.

This one is really cool. I did this with the help from a few of my friends. This was using the shutter speed manipulation technique. We turned my friend's room into a mini studio and we had this really cool lamp that we used as a "lightbox" and another one of my friend had to hold up a mounting board behind me for the black bg. It took us a few tries to lay down the technique but when we did, it was pretty cool and the effect was very cool as well. This one is a edited version of the original. It's only 1 photo and not 3 different ones layered on each other. Big thanks goes out to Albert, our class's inhouse pro photographer and the makeshift crew members of Yi Pin and Han Yang. Haha.

Oh yea one more highlight of my week was watching a dissection. We are about to start drawing fullbody figures already and our lecturer decided to show us this video to let us see how the muscles structure of a human looks like and work. The video was sort of like a documentary or educational dvd of some sort about human anatomy. So this professor dissected this dead person's real body in front of a live studio audience. It was quite vivid. He removed the body's skin in one whole piece and when he layed it out it look like a jacket. He then cut some muscles to show us the movement by pulling them manually. He even cracked open the brain, which was kinda like opening a durian. No seriously, the way he was hitting the chisel to crack open the brain was exactly how hard you hit when you want to open a durian/coconut. They even split open the spinal cord and took out the cord itself. One of the longest nerves extend from the brain until the tip of our big toe. But I think the best part of of all is that when they took a preserved brain and sliced it into like 6 cross-section-burger-patty-like pieces with different thickness to show us of the brain looks like. At the end of it I think the video did not achieve its purpose, but it was quite a cool video to watch about the human anatomy. Not for the faint hearted, srsly.

So yea it has been a productive week though there was quite alot of slacking in between. Anyway I have delayed long enough and should be getting back to my work now. I'm leave you all with this wallpaper I made like 15minutes in CG class haha. Quite cool, very retro, very my style. I might even make it into a print one day haha. Ciao.

P.S: Don't ask me what it means.

God listens

didn't know i had to learn this from such a young boy. truly humbled.

i can't seem to load the video here, so kindly please click me.

times have been rough, but God always finds a way to remind me he's there.

if i hear the word JAM again..

2009-10-12T20:24:00.002+08:00

i will shoot somebody through their penis and turn it into a vagina, vice versa.

ungrateful people who get ticked off over insignificant details of this stupid mundane life tick ME off.

SO WHAT THE FUCK IF IT'S FUCKING JAMMED? THERE IS NO FUCKING THING U CAN DO ABOUT IT EXCEPT DEAL WITH IT AND JUST FUCKING DRIVE AND BE GRATEFUL YOU DON'T ACTUALLY HAVE TO WALK THERE.

OMfG.

im telling you, PEOPLE in general let all the small stupid things run their lives. srsly. i thank GOD im not so petty and more of a broad-picture kind of person.

my mood hasn't been very good for the past few days. all because of the same PERSON.

matiu
damn angry.

I am not blardy joking

2009-10-10T01:21:00.003+08:00

On a lighter note, as in a very light note, though i'm having mixed reactions about it but i'll let you decide yourself...

MALAYSIA MIGHT BE UNDER ATTACK BY MEN WITH BAMBOO SPEARS!!

I am not blardy joking, seriously, here is the article.

Seriously... this is so lame. I don't even know what to think and what to think to think right now. But don't worry, for you over paranoid citizens like myself, the government has dispatched and tighten security forces especially at vital areas to keep us safe.

Bamboo spears... wtf? I mean.. .. ... urgh.

Anyway here is another article which justifies this whole issue abit. (note, this article is a parody of the situation written by a person on Twitter)

Anyway like the previous post, I'll leave it to you all to digest.

P.S. : Huey Ee likes Full Cream milk. Now we finally know why..

i did not just nod away and ignore all you've said

2009-10-09T21:12:00.002+08:00

i am perfectly capable of an intelligent conversation now and then,TVQRM. thanks for the vote of confidence.

yes. things are getting slightly out of control. though it would be a full exaggeration to say freedom is at doom in the for-see-able future, i must agree that this move should be worrying.

though how the mechanics of this new system is going to work, i'm not too sure. but the idea of having to pay for information every google search is adsurb. i can't count the number of times i randomly type stuff on the web (though i much prefer books, the nerd i am) simply because it's so convinient.

don't worry, i dont think we're the only ones ticked off about this. the companies won't dare do something the public is strongly against. surely a compromise would surface eventually.

and jit yang, the poem is beautiful. i would like to hear your take on it, as you know with literature, opinions differ. i seem to draw on personal experience when i read it, though the reference i am making to is not dead, in the literal sense of the word, at least.

exams coming. wish me all the best ;D

No Such Thing as a Free Lunch

2009-10-09T16:59:00.004+08:00

I know its such a cliche idiom but its so true, well at least its getting true-er if there is such a thing.

So like what's the deal?

It's as if the trend these days is to milk things. We all know very well about how the music industry and Hollywood has been battling pirates like tulanwarriors. As long as you use something that is theirs without their permission to make money, you're screwed. You know you have filesharing and stuff like that.

The latest move by multi-million/billion dollar corporations, now from the news and information sector, is to license their news articles meaning that probably in the next few years when i type "Arsenal" in my Google search box, chances are that I will need to pay to access news articles from the News tab.

The mentioned corporations are well known News corp. and AP (The Associated Press) who are the biggest players in the news publishing industry. They felt that the reductions in their earnings this year was due to them selling their news pieces at cheaper prices because their buyers (newspapers and broadcasters) are losing advertising revenue due to people turning to cheaper and more effective alternatives on the internet. So they thought the best way to counter that is to go to the root of the problem and charging the Internet search engines.

The picture I am getting now after reading the article is that the ability to obtain information freely from the web is going to be diminished, note diminished not lost because that is how things are beginning to work on the Internet, with sites such as Wikipedia articles are actually written by normal users and thats how many software projects are being done, open source. But then they form only a slice of what information we can easily access from the internet now. If these dudes were to license their materials, probably many of us will return to the good ol' days of visiting libraries for resources because there exists this new hurdle of accessing these information.

I don't know, I'm probably being paranoid and Ming will have probably ignored everything I said and just nods away at that last statement. But it's definitely food for thought. I just don't really like the idea because it sounds so much like how corporations are putting licenses on everything they own to "protect" their property. Anyway if you're interested you can read the article yourself here.

Love

2009-10-09T02:32:00.007+08:00

I have found a new love.

This new found love is not a she

For she is a he

But neither a he

For he is dead.

Must thank A-Levels for this meeting. People , I would like to introduce y'all to W.H Auden.

It's late and I would like for his poetry to speak for itself, and it's late, so I leave you with

Funeral Blues by W. H Auden:

Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone,

Prevent the dog from barking with a juicy bone,
Silence the pianos and with muffled drum
Bring out the coffin, let the mourners come.

Let aeroplanes circle moaning overhead
Scribbling on the sky the message He is Dead.
Put crepe bows round the white necks of the public doves,
Let the traffic policemen wear black cotton gloves.

He was my North, my South, my East and West,
My working week and my Sunday rest,
My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;
I thought that love would last forever: I was wrong.

The stars are not wanted now; put out every one,
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun,
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the woods;
For nothing now can ever come to any good.

PS: If there are any references to any individual's life, it is not intentional.

PPS: It's just due to the fact Auden is awesome.

pictures say a thousand words.

Kero, Kero, Keroro!

2009-09-21T03:05:00.004+08:00

Oh em gee, you all so need to watch this. Like S-R-S-L-Y. Make your life complete. Haha but then again I would sound like I am exagerrating if you don't understand what you are about to watch. If you ever heard or watched Keroro Gunso before, well here is one of their endings. I love this anime.

My favourite character is Tamama. I always thought it was a girl... but it is actually a guy. Nvm. It is the dark blue one. This anime is awesome.

I noticed that Sunrise produce really good animes that are really really funny. Remember Yakitate! Japan? It is produced from the same company which produced the Gundam series aka Sunrise and this one is another very funny one. I love how it is laden with pop culture references and they are genuinely funny, something another anime(bleach) can learn one or two things from.

I mean seriously Bleach is getting lame. Don't get me wrong, their fighting sequences are still the best, however when it comes to their comedic moments, they really really disappoint. It is so repetitive and lame. You feel that they chucked it in so that they can prolong each episode to make it lag behind the manga as much as possible, like as if fillers are not enough already. Haha sorry I just had to take a swipe at Bleach.

Another really really good anime is FMA: Brotherhood. Their comedic moments are awesome, which goes on top of an already sublime storyline. You can really feel the intensity when the real heavy episodes kick in. Good stuff. Oh well haha just had to rant about it. Of course its not like anyone is reading what I typed. But its fine.

ahhhhh. another one of those movies i can't wait to watch.

i actually heard about the book ages ago from Alicia (stupid woman still haven't lent me her copy) but i didn't give it much thought until now.

the trailer looks absolutely smashing. Eric Bana, Rachel McAdams and Lifehouse's Broken. absolute helpless romantic heaven.

a lot of movies to catch this October!! And i haven't been to the cinema in agessss, the last movie i watched was like eons ago. damn shit.

and i am so freaking pissed with college admissions fee. WHY IS IT SO EXPENSIVE TO EVEN APPLY ANYWHERE? omg. you need a freaking scholarship for applications man. BMAT itself is going to cost me rm560!

sigh.

physics 4 on tuesday, can't even bring myself to study for it. somebody shoot my balls with a gun please.

So like I'm not your ordinary movie buff or buffet(dude = dudette, buff = buffet, get it? kill me la) but that doesn't mean I don't like movies. No, I mean, Yes, I do like movies. I even sometimes fish around for news of upcoming movies that I really want to watch. I usually have a few, but I usually don't watch them because... well because of a few reasons, like laziness, or tak de teman, but more often than not, its due to poor memory. Well usually I forget which movies I want to see.

So to curb that obviously bad habit of forgetfulness, I shall make a list of movies I want to watch in the near future after another bout of watching trailers on youtube.

1. 9 (9-9-09)

I'm quite into post-apocalyptic stuff. When I stumbled upon this trailer and found out that Tim Burton has a hand in this, plus its an animation, it's a no-brainer. Looks, sounds, feels epic, no?

2. Toy Story 3 (10-6-2010)

Like come on, admit it. The first movie was probably the movie that changed your life. This is awesome. Toy Story 3. Like, b-awesome man.

3. Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs (18-9-2009)

I stumbled upon this a little while back and have been keeping tabs on it ever since. I thought I should put it here in case Uncle Alzheimer comes by. This movie is an adaptation of a children's book. An interesting story line you must say. Oh! Look out for a cop in shorts... this is so pg-13

4. Planet 51 (20-11-2009)

Muahahahha, another animation. Another interesting story line and doesn't that soundtrack sound familiar? Hoho.

5. The Fantastic Mr. Fox (13-11-2009)

Oh em gee. Stop motion and George Clooney. Haha this is so awesome. Must watch!

6. Sherlock Holmes (25-12-2009)

Haha finally a non animation on my list. A lot of people are critisizing this movie because it doesn't stick to the book because they decided to give Sherlock Holmes more of a tulanwarrior type of character. But it's all good ot me.

7. .... well Uncle Alzheimer caught again. I'm sure I have more to add to the list but nevermind. Until next time. 6 movies is alot already for me. So do me a favour, if you are thinking of watching any of these, ask me as well. please T_T

what if the sword does not fit me?

exams. exams. exams. mahai. exams. pukimak. exams

i have my A2 trials tomorrow, for those who are wondering (wtfbbq why this yongming forever having exams wan), yes, i couldn't agree more. i myself don't understand why i'm always having exams. it's really draining.

but on the brighter side, once the trials are over; i have about a month to the actuals then another month after that to total freedom. i can almost taste the sweet joy of November and December. the eternal breaks! i wonder what i'll do this year to fill up my gap time.

especially this year, i want to do something special and private for myself. Uni begins next year for me, and i don't want to waste the only free time i have before that inevitable leap.

so God bless, i would find something worthwhile to do.

Jit, how ru lahhhh. so busy until no time to update us on your life?

love love love!

despite the coming exams....

WOOHOO DISSIDIA IS OUT!!

like a worn-out pair of jeans

2009-08-18T18:13:00.003+08:00

sometimes you just get so tired of giving a damn about every single itsy-bitsy detail of life. you just want to stop washing those jeans despite them being dirty because it is so much more comfortable to wear something you didn't give a damn about.

exactly. i am very tired of giving a damn.

i lost my copy Eclipse and Breaking Dawn last week. i'm really sorry. those books meant the world to me, and you have no idea how heartbroken i am. i' m not even bothered to rebuy them. it isn't the same anymore. sorry guys.

and somebody said something to me today that i found both offensive and slightly rude to my well-being. it challenged my beliefs and standings-- which i really don't like at all.

all in all, a very bad day indeed.

Errr...

"A "health curfew" may involve the closure of all schools and the cancellation of all public and social functions, medical sources said.

Public gathering places might also be temporarily closed."

Owh kay... This whole H1N1 shebang is getting out of hand to the point of being scary. The death toll has been rising quite rapidly for a supposedly "seasonal flu". According to this article on The Star, the government will issue an health curfew if the death toll rises above 0.4pc. I don't know what the heck it means but currently it is at 0.1% to 0.3% so it wont be too far away right?

I mean, closure of ALL and cancellation of ALL? I don't know about you but the word ALL seems to carry a lot of weight to me. I mean I'm imagining some kinda "I Am Legend" type of scenario even worse then the CNY exodus.

The effects of this decision scares me. The panic and fear among the people? The economy shutting down? Very big deal indeed. After reading the article (http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2009/8/17/nation/20090817103540&sec=nation) I can't help but to begin to have this awareness and sense of fear in me as well.

Not to mention the drug Tamiflu, which is the medication created to battle this flu hasn't been effective. I'm making this assumption based upon a couple in the UK gave their toddlers Tamiflu and they were vomitting until the point the couldn't vomit anything else other than phlegm. Not to mention the shortage and unwillingness for clinics to stock up the drug due to high price and low supply (http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2009/8/15/nation/4524157&sec=nation)

But I guess whatever it is, it is better to be careful. Take care everybody!
