>> Less Word Wednesday #1 >> Flying High is Overrated

click to enlarge (or don't)

This was my first 'product' resulted from what I bought as I stated in the Peanut and Butter post. As you can see, the product is not quite to my degree of approval and expectation (you could see the unevenness of the color, texture and what a hideous design), but I posted it anyway (and blamed it to my camera - I don't have a scanner here). Please be kind. Thank you.

P/S: At first I want to put this title as Wordless Wednesday as most people did, but then, the thought of not to write anything to accompany this such masterpiece is killing me. Duh.

P/S: P/S: Happy belated birthday to my friend, Angel Baby from Your Caring Angel. I wanted to wish you here, but I could not leave my comment - don't why, may be because of my slow very slow crawling internet connection. I hope you will read this :)

>> HOT NEWS THIS WEEK: Is World Getting Crazier?

Seriously, who would say something like that? Except for wars, poverty, food crisis, oil price skyrocketing, market slumming, environmental disasters and the surge of sex related crimes, the world is fine. We (at least the readers of my blog) are still alive and kicking frantically clicking through the webs. Nevertheless, we should stop for a while and reflects our world conditions. No, I am not talking about nature and how to save them again, not yet.

News 1: A Racist Grandmother

A grandmother, who has a daughter and three grandchildren, was woken three times by a group of drunken and noisy students, who were shouting drunkenly and kicking bins. The former policewoman got dressed, went outside and shouted at them:

"Why can't you go back to where you come from and make some noise there? I bet your families and neighbors wouldn't put up with it. You don't care about us and do just as you like. What gives you the right to frighten my elderly neighbors, cause damage and keep us awake at night?"

And 4 months later, she was charged for using racially aggravated threatening words. It turned out that two Asians in the group had complained to the police. In her defend:

"The last thing I am is a racist. I have a totally inclusive attitude to different races and cultures - I don't care if you are black, white, green or a Martian. Their color had nothing to do with it - it was their behavior."

Well, I am an Asian too. But I don't think what she did is racist. The 51 years-old just trying to get some sleep for God sake. This incident only shows that authorities today are willing to charged without using any common sense. Not that I agree that racism should left unpunished, we just need to consider the facts and situations before any further harm was done. Racism should be handled delicately as it is a very sensitive issue (Malaysian government, please take note).

News 2: First Man In World to Give Birth Shows His Child

"Thomas Beatie says he is just like any other normal father. But he is about as far as you could be from typical. He claims to have given birth to the child. Although born a woman, Beatie had his breasts removed and lives outwardly as a man after changing his gender to male. The 34-year-old says he retained his female sex organs because he intended to have children one day." - Daily Mail

Okay, the truth is he is still she as she still has female sex organs, but to make my writing easier, I will refer to the individual as he. I already read months ago about this news. Although he has not given birth then. The buzz of 'the miracle' never got to me because he was not born as a male, just change his gender later. Nevertheless, after I saw the pictures of his innocent daughter, my heart touched. I really hope that her parent will deliver to their daughter the news that the person who actually given her birth was her father instead of her mother.

This is not a really great news to debate with, and I do not specified my view of this matter. I just want to know what do you think about it.

New 3: What is in a name?

There are many weird names in this planet. Just check the celebrities children names. It ranges from the Moon and to the Inspector Gadget. I once wrote a post about name and pronunciation complaining about how my name is hard to pronounce. But, I will be much pleased with my name (and I am pretty sure everyone else will pleased with their name too) compared to this 9 years-old who name is Talula Does The Hula From Hawaii - for real.

That's the unfortunate appellation a girl was given by her parents - but now a New Zealand judge has ordered she should become a ward of court until she can choose a name she really likes. She is at the center of a custody battle. A family court judge cited a list of unfortunate names that he said were embarrassing or made children seem foolish among their peers.

Some names, including Fish and Chips (twins), Yeah Detroit, Stallion, Twisty Poi, Keenan Got Lucy and Sex Fruit, were blocked by registration officials, he said. But others were allowed, including Number 16 Bus Shelter, Midnight Chardonnay, Benson and Hedges (twins) 'and tragically, Violence,' the judge said.

And now, who said the world is getting crazier? I am sure the insanity of this world is not comparable from other planets in this galaxy. Just hope that the last shows of insanity before the world end is Paris Hilton will be married and settle down with her four kids. We all deserve that kind of insanity.

Yesterday, I bought some water-colors, brushes and a drawing block, so that I could at least make an effort to do the ATC organized by Rizal from his Rest and Rileks blog, which remind me that I actually forgot to ask Rizal what ATC stand for. I am no art person and obviously lack the knowledge of certain art abbreviation. Though I understand what he wanted me to do. Anyway, as a shy student (or you could call me, famous - I don't really mind) I always surrounded by my friends, mostly future engineers who alienated by any form of arts. Thus, I was asked a lot of questions about why I bought those art stuffs. One of them even quoted a lecturer’s words, “Engineer is no joke, man”.

Do not worry as I am sure I did not break any engineer’s ethics. There is nothing wrong with the fact that an engineer loves art or the police love to teach kindergarten kids. For me, it is just like you how much you love to eat peanut and butter. Both are made from a different source and had a different taste, but you could not live without one of them. Everyone has a job whether he loves it or not and we for time to time do seek for another way to escape from the world insanity. Due to the time hindrance, we later call it as a hobby. For me, I love to see, hear, touch and sometimes make any form of art.

Combine it with my passion of human being interests (psychology, appearances and mind), I made a few ‘art works’ just for a laugh. Caution: Please ensure that your kid is away from the screen as some of my works are very offensive and has a high level of sexiness (and ugliness). Thank You.

The latest one is the really ugly beautiful Kanye West The Model (picture down below). Yes, I hate Kanye West but love his songs. The point is, your character will always be defined by your job. If you are a counselor or teacher, you are supposed to be friendly with kids, good manner, and should have the ability to control people's mind. If you are working as a policeman, you have to be punctual, a good and law abide citizen. If you are an artist, you must be have a style of your own, believe in yourself and keep wearing some weird unique accessories. It is the same with engineer, you should be able to understand complicated diagrams and done the work precisely.

My point is, other people perceptions should not stop you from doing something that you like. So, what you like to do for your free time? Something that is totally off from your career? What your colleague's perception towards it?

P/S: Long gone the day when students said collecting stamps, fishing and cleaning up the house as their hobby.Continue Reading

Start of the new semester marked the arrival of a new batch of students. The fond memories of junior and senior relationship are worth remembering, especially when you are the senior – not that you are supposed to bullying the juniors, but you cannot help to show them how much you are matured, how much knowledge that you have acquired and how familiar you are to the surrounding. Thus, my wonderful school (faculty to some) has decided to do some activities to get the first year students to get close with each other, with the stuff members of the school and with other batches as well.

The first part of it was on the Friday’s night (18 July 2008) which involved only the first year students and facilitators, was called (I must warn you, it was very cliché – a reason why I should have the creative rights on it) “Intra Chemical Reaction”, how about that? Activities included a game of passing all the group members a sentence that comprised 17 similar vowel words to the group members, built a shelter from newspapers, a quiz about chemical and mathematic related questions, carrying an egg on a string of raffia rope which need to be tied around all the group members hands and a game which you have to make a string out of anything (shoe lace, shoe, handkerchief, hair, etc.) and the final length of it will be measured.

Intra Chemical Reaction:

Yes, I totally agree with you. The games all are not appropriate for a university student. But wait until you read about the next day program which are (just name a few) waiter race (passing a leaking pail from one another – must through the top of your head), torturing alive snakehead fishes by throwing it from one person to another (someone should report it to Animal Rights!), male net ball (played by the Deputy of Vice Chancellor of Academic and International Affairs, dean, deputy dean and other senior professors and doctors) throwing and catching eggs from the distance of half a netball court and a strength only required rope pulling.

The day of torture start with an early wake up, who wakes up at 8 am during Saturday? Plus, we have to stay up late the night before after the Intra Chemical Reaction to paint our batch flag. To make the matter worst, we were forced (with the indication that we are the only one who does not doing anything for our tomorrow tent decoration) by some inconsiderate female students in my school. In a move to show my rebelling self, me and some of my friends arrived half an hour late to the event. Oh, and we casually walk slowly with the flag in our bag. No one knows what the face of the devil is. Other than bias judges and rude marshals, a will-burn-your-skin day unless will goes without anything big happening.

Whether the objectives of these events were achieved or it just another way of my dean to mpress the Vice Chancellor, no one will ever know for sure. At least the food is good.

What A Day

It feels like forever for me to get settle down. I already forgot how the 'fun' of house moving was. Anyway, I will try to online more this week. Back to blogging. Blogging is fun, especially when we are blogging about things that we love. Personally, I even have a feeling of anticipation for what other bloggers will blog about. Sometimes, you will bump into a surprise while others will come out as your expectation (not that it is a bad thing to happen though). By abiding to the expectation, we could find the safest way to describe our feeling and let it flows smoothly into others’ mind. That being said, blogging too will sometimes lead you into some terrible experiences or what I will call, blogging nightmare.

Thus, I would like to list out some of the costs for terrible experiences to other bloggers. Although it will be based on my own personal experiences, I am sure some of us had been in the same place as I am. This is the top five terrible experiences that will happen to many innocent and ignorant people out there. Please do not feel bad if your blog is in one of the categories listed, we just want to have a pleasant blogging experience here.

1. Music
Everyone loves music. Some prefer a softer balladic music, while others love the hard kicks of metal clashing, drum and guitar. For those who are putting a music player into your page, please make sure it is in the user play mode, which means that it would not play by itself. Just imagine while you are surfing the internet in the early hour, in your own room, enjoying the night (or morning), sound of its creatures and the tranquility that come along with it and then suddenly a loud banging sound come out from your computer. To make the problem worst, you are wearing a headphone at that time and your last heart attack was on the week before. Please turn your music to user control function, and if you don’t want to, just put a soothing sound or music. No one will doze off while reading your site, trust me (the music is the last factor that will cause the readers to doze off)

2. Font Size and Color
In case that you don’t know, human vision is limited (and yes, women have more parallel vision compared to men). How hard we are trying to concentrate to countless lines of words with an extremely contrast font’s color against its background, the eyes sometimes could not take it anymore. Please use a normal font size and not every word should be colorfully colored, please, we could read by ourselves, do not try to take away that ability from us.

3. Spamming
Chat box and comment box spamming are not that bad, but you do get annoyed to see the same person post several times, especially when the comments are about advertisement of their sites or goods.

4. Advertisement
I remember that I had joined a forum on this topic matter. Some said that the advertisement will divert your attention from the text, while others said that it was very annoying especially when you put an animated advertisement. In my own opinion, I think that there is nothing wrong with putting ads in your site. The reader would not certainly be going to read your post for a full 5 minutes (or at most, 10 minutes) straight. They want a few breaks in between those long texts. Not only you need to rest for 15 minutes for every hour of TV viewing, you need to rest your eyes too after a long read. The most annoying part of this is the pop up advertisement. You feel cheated as you are forced to click on their ads (and not getting pay for it) and some of them even direct the page to other site as soon as you click on it. Not a great way to great your reader, doesn’t it?

5. Unconstructive Comment
Sending hurtful comment as an anonymous is not okay. If you are going to say out loud your feeling, please be braved to face the consequences after that. A matured thinking should always be followed by a matured way of expressing it too. It would be wonderful to find some constructive comments about the related post from time to time.

I have a lot more to list out, but it will makes my post too long (one of the few nightmares for some). So, please tell me about your own bad experiences while blogging. I am sure we will have a good laugh off it and take extra caution next time. Have a nice blogging day!

Finally, my new semester has officially started. Settling down always a hard thing to do especially when you are already used to be pampered at home during your holiday. Handling and moving 4 bags full of clothes and 3 boxes of books did nothing to help. Did I mention I have to move my things out from the third floor (fourth floor for some) to the same floor but in a different block? I actually took the full week to transfer all the boxes with help of my friends. With lecturers are in their high spirit to start the class straight away, I am really looking forward for this weekend.

I don't usually blogging during a weekend and if you noticed, I rarely talk about my college's life too, but I guess now everything has changed and I have to adapt with the current situation, which is not enough time and slow internet connection. You should have done the same too. In a new and strange environment, adaptation is a vital for the sustainability of our species. Although your situation may not be that bad, I am assure you that my new college life does. Juggling with Process Dynamic and Control, Environment Engineering and Management, Separation Process and Chemical Reaction Engineering books on one hand and two blogs to handle and a mandatory English lesson one other hand sure took most of the time and energy out of my hand.

Before long, I am quite sure that my hands usage will be something in the past and my abilities to talk and walk like a normal person will soon be gone. Much to my resentment for studying yet again one of the most 'reactive' studies in the world (you would be killed or jailed - either one, if you're mistakenly blow up any chemical plants or reactors), I am pretty thrilled to begin this new semester. One for sure was due to the fact that my scholarship increase which almost double from the last semester, and my new room and roommates were not half bad either. It's a good feeling when people trying to be nice with you and getting to know you.

I have to admit that I am a little nervous to be back behind the desk to study Technical and Engineering English (in a simple word, an compulsory English lesson for future engineers) after missing out almost three years of formal English education. Nevertheless, my nervousness seem to be drown by the female lecturer who choice of words and tone of conversation easily motivated me up. Trying to talks adults to go back and start reading again (we are required to read something that has a real information in it) without sounds like a mom's nagging is a hard thing to do. You need a very good and highly experience lecturer to be able to deliver something like that.

Those pictures were taken through out my 3 years study in School of Chemical Engineering, Engineering Campus, University Sains Malaysia. I will still be here for another 2 years of studies. Most of the pictures were taken only after a heavy rain that swept our campus through out the 365 days. That is the only time our campus looks like a real green campus. With palm oil trees and man made lakes. For your information, this campus only contain the engineering students, further away from any outrages and overly dressed students from different schools in the main campus (such as Art students who were famous with their crooked sense of style). Here, the statistic in the couple years shows that there are recorded decrease of nerd species but a considerable influx of geeks were enrolling in. I am sure hope I will be counted to be on the par with average normal students. No offense.

I will be posted a new post in a day or two (finger crossed). Have a nice weekend!

At the end of June, I received an interview questions from Bluedreamer27 who runs Bluedreamer's TOP 5. That was when I knew that my blog, Hot Shit Form Here was The Interesting Blog of The Month - June 2008. Thrilled by the award and with a body temperature almost 40 degree Celsius - I was having a fever, not due to the award acceptance, I replied all the questions as soon and I can and email it back to Bluedreamer. Needless to say, he was then posted it in his monthly blog of the month section and I suddenly felt much better. Although I honestly kind of embarrassed when I reread it again. Do Click Here to Read The Interview.

Some very touchy comments from my fellow bloggers who coincidentally also Bluedreamer's readers are:

"Oh i love being part of bluecrystaldude's blog, he possesses an extraordinary and outstanding personality which i think, everyone will agree.. His sense of humour is also fab, be his friend to know :) I didn’t take the blog's title to heart even at first, my gut instinct told me the blog was clean.. So now i don’t care what people think negative about him! You shouldn’t judge a book by its cover" - Nisha

"congratulations to both dude... u both are awsome..! very genuine and intelligent... btw crystaldude.. i can't wait to read ab yr summer holliday... don't bother what people might think of u... after this is your own blog...! let me know when u post it ok?" - Waliz

"bluecrystaldude's blogs are really interesting. He has his own way of doing things. He voices out something thats true. For example, his recent blog about anger management, he never hide his true feeling. Wish bluecrystaldule success in whatever he does." - Coolingstar9

"Congratulations to you Bluecrystaldude. I know your blog is really hot..." - Hye

Wow! I really need a pinch right now. This award sure will goes well with my Award Gallery. Not wanting to leave my over the moon feeling stop here, I will now present some of you, my personally made award which I haven't been giving for quite some times, You Are Awesome Award! With "Thank you, For doing me a favor by reading my blog. I owe you one" that goes along with it. Sorry because it wasn't so great looking like the usual award, I really can't describe more of my feeling of gratitude other than using words.


I would like to share this award to Bluedreamer - who has been very kind with me and one of the most early readers in my blog, Miss Waliz - who's intelligent always be the best word to describe her, Nisha - a mom with a savvy mom from India, Hye - her words will make you stop doing anything but thinking, Wow - who easily has the hottest blog around here, Akmal - words of his matured more than himself, Sweetiepie - I really miss her and her blog, Angel Baby - with her angelic touch light up your life, Rizal - who the first person who exposed me to Malaysian art sites including my other two art readers, Mangosteenskin and Emila. Mangosteenskin's arts always looking so sincere, relaxing and honest - she usually draws natural things surrounding her while Emila's are bolder and she usually draws very very cute humans and animals.

I also want to give You Are Awesome Award to Noemesuff - who I pretty sure a rocker hidden behind the skin of a mother, to Moeha Aziz - who words of wisdom flowing like a river (I hope still strong as before fighting for his disease), Faisal Admar - who I really enjoy being his friend, Fara - who is a beauty and lazy a pianist, Farah Deen - who talks about her two kids and her adventures life very well (she also loves traveling as I am), Axim - who blogs daily (I always respect people who could post daily posts, I know it's harder than saying it), to Katunx - who has a hand of photographer and a blog full of humors, E-tavasi - a blogger from Sabah, Malaysia who loves to play games and blogs about almost everything, Coolingstar9 - who short posts very mind stimulating and also to Fishy@ike - also is an intellectual thinker like Akmal. I wonder how many other mind blowing bloggers around. They are like an extinct species, I hope they will around more often. A good read always the best way to spend your a day long internet usage.

I also would like to pass this award to Shemah and Ratu Syura - both are really beautiful but one already married (sorry guys), Shahril Aley - who makes me very hungry every time I went to his blog and also to my latest readers (or should I say, commentators because there are some people who prefer just to read rather than commenting), I welcome you with a big hand of hugs (and the Awesome award of course) especially to Hafidz (please continue to write your blog in English), Izzahismail (happy back to college and happy 100th post too!), Adawiyah Juzailah (also happy back to your college life) and love-n-hate (I hope you're getting better from your accident). I also want to share this award to Daisy The Curly Cat - who has a very awesome blog about cat (I know she doesn't comes here often, but love her anyway).

Love to hear more from you in the future. Nothing beat than having a good and responding readers. Countless readers who have spend some of their precious time just to read your blog. Damn I should be grateful. A big and warm thank you from me. I definitely owe you one. Have a great day,

Bluecrystaldude

P/S: Second post in two days even though I am back to my college? Nothing seems could stop me (except a very slow internet connection of course) But I will take time to visit your blog. I have missed out many posts am I?

Finally. Back to my college and will soon start all over again as a student in my daily life. The months of holiday have actually done me good to face yet another hectic, hormone rising, non syllable words dashing, throat torturing (from the lecturers, of course) and yet another interesting life. After all, student's life is when we spent a big chuck of our dreams and soul. Not to mention the couples of stupid things that we done which we later applaud it or regret. Some of it we done in the name of helping ourselves and other, just to help our friends. I will rather talk about the latter as it would not sound like am all about myself again and again. But don't worry, I will put my personal touch in this post too as I know my life experiences will change your life and the way you will see it. Well, at least 10 seconds (or may be less) after you read this.

Will you do your friend a favor? You should answer the question truthfully and a "Yeah right" is the best answer. It could be the longer "Yeahhhhhh..." follow up with the shorter and end abruptly "right." or the shorter "Yeah, right" and hopefully the more honest version of it. I am not sure if you are getting this, but most of us (a normal person who actually has a real feeling, minus the politicians - yeah, right) will have to endure with this feeling and more guilt that came along with it. You sometime will feel guilty after you agreed to help your best friend to hold his hand through out a monstrous-dentist-appointment that he was afraid damn freaking out, just to noticed that your red and swollen hand the next morning or when you are helping your friend doing something personal until it comes a little bit more personal than you expected. And what they called the term nowadays? Oh yes, "Friend With Benefits".

What I am trying to say is, we all have tried so hard to be the best friend he or she ever had by helping them to do lot of things and yet in some occasion we will feel unappreciated. To make matter worst, we, ourselves also sometimes forgot to acknowledge the helps from our dearest friends. Just a thanks or a friendly hug would mean a lot better for you and your friend. After all, just keep in mind that they may be have done something that isn't so pleasant for themselves in the name of doing a friend a favor. "Will you do your friend a favor?" should be changed to "Are you appreciating your friend's favor?" It is a must done thing to do for a stranger managed to walk into your life and became from a stranger to an acquaintance and then become a friend, and finally in doing so you will keep he or she for the rest of your life.

What are your the most worst or best favor that you have done to your friend? For me, the top five favors are:

1. Checking for my best friend who was also my ex-girlfriend the show time for a romantic movie in cinemas, so that she and her boy friend will have the night for cuddling with each other when watching this movie.
2. Did I mention that when I was in one of the cinemas websites, I was infected by spyware? What a bummer. (The site was later being blocked by Google)
3. Spending a dreadful hour in dentist with my friend I told earlier. He did not rightfully say that he was going to a dentist. He said he wanted to visit a doctor after we back from spending another hour earlier in a coffee house slipping cups of caffeine - which I later learned that he wanted to reduce his nerve activities before the dentist appointment.
4. As a regular offender for this favor, I always keep in my mind to not ever doing it again, but I fail every single time. The big favor is - accompany a girl friend shopping.
5. Letting your friend copying your answer during examination and ended up getting busted. As all of the students in my primary school class knew who the only person in loves Sailor Moon so much that you wrote the questions asking for the answer on a paper with drawings of a full frontal Sailor Moon's character on it. That would be my friend of course and not me. Then she later left the paper laying on the table after the exam just to get picked up by the teacher.
   

So, there you go. Top five favors that I think I won't try to do it again in the future. I am sure hope you don't. Anyway, please share with us some if not all, favors that you have done just in the name of friendship and let us all appreciate it together (and having some laugh in between). Have a great day,
