Malaysia Day?

With Malaysia coming up, I feel that there is a need to write something about Malaysia. For those of you who do not know, Malaysia Day is yet ANOTHER day to celebrate Malaysia's many wonderful 'blessings'. Is there another country in this world that's got two independence day (or something like that)? I don't know for sure but maybe I will Google it up and see for myself.

I don't celebrate Merdeka or our independence day....never have. As an 'others' in this country, I do not feel there is any reason for me to worship the independence of this country. Independence from what and whom again?

There is a lot of difference between Malaysia and other countries....Americans may hate their politicians or Obama but they will proudly raise their flags and wave it around during independence day. The Brits are the same, Koreans and Singaporeans too, I believe. Hong Kong people, I am not sure. But in Malaysia, I would say that a large number of people will just let Merdeka and Malaysia day pass....just like any other day. But I speak for myself.

So, just like other Malaysia and Merdeka days of yesteryears, I prefer to wave flags like these ones. With the big balloon on top.


p.s. Please feel free to wave YOUR Malaysia flag because it is YOUR right to be patriotic, I will not think any less of you just because you want to show your love for our country. It is my right not to feel patriotic so, please do not think any less of me. We will be happier this way, trust me.

A Liberating Activity - Guess What Mine Is....

When asked what’s my one single favorite thing to do in the world, I would usually name a whole list of things that I love to do when my work is not screaming at me. Something that takes my mind COMPLETELY off of everyday tasks and relaxes me. Take a guess what it is…. If you say ‘ reading ’, yes, I love reading (especially soppy love stories with lots of sex scenes, please. Hee hee hee ….) and I also love mystery novels but it’s not the first on the list. If you say ‘ playing the piano ’; yes, I love playing the piano. Creating forms a huge part of my life and whenever I play the piano (as inept at it as I am), there’s this tiny little girl inside of me jumping up and down with glee, clapping her hands. It’s my childhood dream to be able to play the piano! And thumping on the keys gives me a sense of satisfaction when I hear the music. If you say ‘ writing ’; You’ve got to be kidding me! You mean I don’t write enough as it is? Case closed. If you say ‘ playing with my kids ’; Yea...

At Camp 5, 1 Utama: Kids' Rescue Mission

The kids had a wonderfully exciting day today. Now, this is as extreme as this mother is going to get. Mommy goes Paintball, kids go mountain-climbing...I think I've fulfilled the criteria of offering my kids a fun and exciting life as a kid. :-) It was one of their friends' birthday party and they're a little bored of KidzSports...that's for BABIES, anyway, they say. So, off to Camp 5 then, says the birthday boy's mother. Camp 5 in 1 Utama is located near Neways Karaoke, for those who have never been there before. It's a neat little corner tucked up on the roof of the massive shopping complex. Anyway, the kids had tons of fun although a little apprhensive when they saw how high the 'rock' was. It's actually quite neat and if I didn't feel like throwing up whenever up on higher grounds, I would have wanted to try it as well. The highlight of this party came in the form of a rescue mission. As we all know, when one is frighte...

When will Mariah stop flashing her boobs????

Mariah used to be my favourite singer of all time because she's got this amazing gift in the form of a voice that can go ANYWHERE but why oh why is she so obssessed with flashing those enormous peaks of hers everywhere...and why is it that all her songs contain sexual innuendos....touch my body is one of them. I mean, I love the song, I love the tune, I love the beat but PLEASE , Mariah, PLEASE .....why can't you be decent for once? I clicked to watch because I like the song and spent a couple of minutes crossing my fingers that she won't be flashing anything (FAT CHANCE!) in the video. But nope....no such luck. In fact, with a song like that, she goes even further over the top. Where got people answer the door in this type of clothing wan?? Is she for real??? I mean, in this video, she calls a technician up to fix her computer and she answers the foor LIKE THAT ??? Aish.... But the video was entertaining in a sense because the lam-chue-kok (male lead) is this geeky,...
