The shocking death of one of the most proclaimed talent from British music has left us yesterday. Amy Winehouse was found dead in her posh London apartment, she died at the age of 27.

I am dedicating Yuna’s cover version of Nirvana’s Come As You Are.

Come as you are, as you were, as I want you to be.
As a friend, as a friend, as an old Enemy.
Take your time, hurry up, choice is yours, don't be late.
Take a rest, as a friend, as an old memory.

Memory ah, Memory ah, Memory ah.

May Amy Winehouse rest in peace. You will be missed.





Latest News

Sources close to Amy Winehouse tell PerezHilton.com exclusively that they believe drugs were not responsible for the singer's untimely death.

Instead, they believe Amy's passing was brought on by a massive seizure.

"The hardcore drugs completely wrecked Amy's nervous system," an insider tells us. "She gave up all that [hardcore drugs] a while ago but she was still drinking heavily, which would bring on seizures."

Amy had been suffering from seizures regularly and despite being warned by doctors kept drinking.

An official autopsy has yet to be completed. - Perez Hilton

I am not even the smartest man I knew, but I still have some common sense that makes me think before believing anything as a truth.

This evening, while the shamefulness of the #blametheIslam keyword is trending on Twitter, I noticed lots of retweets from my followers regarding a tweet from another Malaysia saying that Justin Bieber is racist and he posted a couple of links for this unsubstantiated claimed.

The first one was from a blog post of Justin Bieber Bashes Islam:

And the second link was from Yahoo Answers:

Notice how similar the posts from both sites are? That is because both articles are from the same source!

I was a little bit offended by all these vicious lies and thus, asked the person who posted the links on Twitter at the first place, while questioning him two simple questions:

1. Where is the link from the claimed post of Daily Star (A British tabloid for God’s sake, do you really telling me that you believe them all?)
2. Why this issue is only coming up after 10 months of both posts up on the Internet? (blog post on 21st September 2010 and the Yahoo Answers from 10 months back)

Then, I did a simple Google search with keywords “Daily Star Justin Bieber” and it didn’t show the claimed article. Trust me, if Justin Bieber really said a statement that “Why can't Islam be accepting of other people, like Christianity and Judaism?” it will be one of the top post of that come out in the Google online search.

For your information, I am not even a Justin Bieber’s fan. No offense, his music is radio friendly and all, but it’s just not one of my musical preferences.

This incident reminded me back when #RIPJackieChan was trending on Twitter worldwide. That awkward moment after you had posted some tearful tweets offering condolences and kind words to Jackie Chan and you realized that Jackie Chan is still kicking and alive.

Still, I was not jumping on the bandwagon at that time. After a quick Google search, you will stumble upon the truth that many were blinded by. I even Googled “Amy Winehouse” just to make sure that she’s really dead; such a lost in the British music industry, but that will be in a different post.

Anyway, my sincere advise to all Twitter users, stop retweet malicious news so easily. With a simple Google search you will find the truth. Stealing from the wisdom of Johannes Sebastian Bach, “if I decide to be an idiot, then I’ll be an idiot on my own record.” Don’t let others who might even have ulterior motive to be fooled you.

In Malay, there is saying, "sudah terhantuk baru terngadah" meaning, you're only realized your mistake after you had done one. Stop being an idiot Twitter user, please!

(picture of victory lap will be posted later)

So, today I come to office early and start to type a post for my blog.

Yes, it has indeed been a while; I was gravely caught up with my works more than I predicted. I am like a working machine, but with a stomach and mouth full with ulcers (literally).

Anyway, my first financial year has officially over as June came to an end, which means my blog deserved a victory post. More post will come later!


Apart from the usual slaving hours working, I managed to squeeze my time by joining couples of programs; volunteering for the mangrove planting program at Port Dickson, joining our company’s family day and participating in the #twtupkaseh; a charity event for the orphanage at Kg. Melayu Subang and Kuah, Rawang. All will be explained in excruciating details later.

A post to kick off a new week, a new financial year and a new hope of reviving my otherwise dead blog; please be excited as I am!

Nowadays climbing up a social ladder is defined by how many friends you have on Facebook, how many followers you have on Twitter, how many blogs you run on the internet, how many birthday wishes you got when your birthday come around. Believe it or not, the times when being popular means you have lots of friends, great attitude and how successful you are in life is now fading over.

Virtual friends are the key to social success and it has been a vicious cycle of backstabbing and sweet talking. Thus, I would like to share with you the tips to become acceptable in this modern society:

1. Pretend to be someone else. If you are just Tom, Dick or Harry this will not take you anywhere. Try pretending to be Donald Trump the President. Be arrogant, be over the top, and be powerful; even if it’s just by pretending to be one.

*drool*

Once again, I am starving. I can’t really speak, let alone eat during these ulcerous days. The beginning of this problem started when I was advised by my panel doctor to use yet another type of mouth wash, this time it was a mouth wash B. I had tried the ‘branded’ mouth wash (you can seek fashion in everything that you buy, even it is from a chemically produced pharmaceutical product) L, O and C, and all their flavors.

The truth is, I had tried B before when I was in high school. The feeling after you use it is very soothing; for your throat and ulcers, but after a few days, small ulcers will pop out everywhere (favorite place is under the tongue). So, when the doctor advised me to try use B, I tried it. Hoping that somehow my antibody and tongue resistance has mutated and thus, the ulcers will not be so easy to occur.

Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me. I had self-proclaimed myself as an Ulcer Man. The ulcers resulted from that are so plenty, it’s hurting me even to swallow food, water or even to speak. This came from a guy who is ‘normally’ have 3-5 ulcers at one time.

Needless to say, I am super hungry and my mind is bursting with ideas that I need to thrash it out. Refraining my desire to speak; not that people understand me anyway, they keep asking me to repeat my words, I chose the other way that I know the best; which is writing. I have been tweeting like crazy these couple of days and writing long posts on blog.

I forgot how much fun is that; writing without knowing whether there is anyone out there is reading your rambling posts. Did people read it, but decide not to comment on it? Or whether people read it and said to themselves “I better not commenting on this blue guy post, he must be having an emotional breakdown or something”. Honestly, at this moment, I do not care; I am just having one of those days where you’re too hungry to pretend to care.

Motto of the day: Do not deny a man his food, do not mess with a hungry man.

P/S: B, L, O and C are the brands of mouth wash. I rather not poke fun with rich pharmaceutical companies; I watched Erin Brockovich and read John Grisham’s novels that they can really be a pain in the ass. Long live consumerism!

There was a point of time when parents reminded their children before they went to sleep that without hard work, your talent will goes to the drain. The time has ended. We are living in the cultural moment when every possible thing can shoot you up to the highest ladder of popularity contest, even for the wrong reason. Take Chipmunk music for example, I for once never thought it will become that successful, maybe I am a conservative person and making fun of people voice is more than an act of distasteful towards other human being, but the Chipmunk and all his kind catapult to the fame within years of their existence.

Then, come Rebecca Black and her Friday song. At the peak moment when people are expressing their grief, concern and prayers to the devastating double major disaster in Japan (8.9 earthquakes and tsunami that followed) the social networking world was injected by a humor by the recording company called Ark Music Factory. They are basically making their business based on the foundation that every teenage dream is to become a pop or rock stars.

“sounds like stuff in those movies when the world ends and it shows all the destruction...” - soccerviking1012 on YouTube

These privileged young girls will record a song, written by professional musicians, auto-tuning their voice (so that it wasn’t overly embarrassing) and then have a professional grade music video for them. The end result will be fed to the public through YouTube. Rebecca Black’s video has been gaining millions of views (last count it was more than 7 millions) and even attracted the attention of the mighty CNN.

“BREAKING NEWS from Rebecca Black: Tomorrow is Saturday and Sunday comes afterwards.” – Jesus_M_Christ on Twitter

The lyric was pretty simple and made up from the repetition of the word “Friday” (47 times), “yeah” (23 times), “fun” (20 times) and “partyin’” (17 times). Oh and she’s counting the days and apparently can’t decide whether to seat in the front or back seat. The perfect mixture of brainless lyric and the fact that she can’t sing are the reason of her success. The “Friday Friday” and “Rebecca Black” has been trending on Twitter from Monday. The impact of her song is that big; even it is Monday, Friday is trending.

“That little label needs to make her a full album, one song for each day of the week.” – Pop Justice

Here are the extracted some of what we will call one day as a lyrical genius:

7am, waking up in the morning
Gotta be fresh, gotta go downstairs
Gotta have my bowl, gotta have cereal
Seein’ everything, the time is goin’
Tickin’ on and on, everybody’s rushin’
Gotta get down to the bus stop
Gotta catch my bus, I see my friends (My friends)

Kickin’ in the front seat
Sittin’ in the back seat
Gotta make my mind up
Which seat can I take?

It’s Friday, Friday
Gotta get down on Friday
Everybody’s lookin’ forward to the weekend, weekend
Friday, Friday

Yesterday was Thursday, Thursday
Today i-is Friday, Friday (Partyin’)
We-we-we so excited
We so excited
We gonna have a ball today

Tomorrow is Saturday
And Sunday comes after...wards
I don’t want this weekend to end

Just like any greatest songs ever produced, there are growing trend of making a parody/remix of this song. Don't forget to view these better versions of Rebecca Black's Friday:

1. Rebecca Black - Friday (Groundhog Day Remix)
2. Rebecca Black - Friday (CHIPMUNK VERSION)
3. FRIDAY - Rebecca Black - Cover by Alex Carpenter
4. Rebecca Black - Friday (Rock Version)

At the end of the day, we can’t help but to savor the moment where the entertainment industry is stop talking about Lady Gaga or Justin Bieber and let the Rebecca Black bath in her search of glory. Rebecca Black phenomenon only cemented my theory that the world can also rejoice not only when there is a disaster, but when there is a small, nonsense thing that we all are feel closer to. We hate it, we love it, we just can’t stop talking about it. Long live Rebecca Black, I can't wait for my Friday.

Malaysia

“All persons are equal before the law and entitled to equal protection of the law” Article 8 of the Malaysian federal constitution.

Every 8th March each year, women all over the world are celebrating the International Women’s Day. This year, it marks the 100th day of celebration. Being brought up in Malaysia for almost my entire life, I can see the differences between the women years ago with the later year, more women can be seen in the higher learning education and increasing number of women uphold important positions in their respective companies.

Education in Malaysia - Gender distribution (click to enlarge)

However, the main perception of women is still evolving around family matters. From my personal observation, many women are expected to remain as homemakers and mothers. Even if women are given the choice to work, they still need to devote most of their time at home around their family members. Many women who work before marriage have also given up their jobs when they get married.

Marina Mahathir

Much of the tension that we are experiencing today is because of the mistrust we have for one another. – Marina Mahathir, Wednesday March 2, 2011, “Ignorance giving rise to discrimination”

In conclusion, we still need to focus on women’s rights, sexual harassment, domestic violence, education and women in work. Lots of things need to be focused on and more yet to be identified. Nevertheless, I hope that Malaysia is going on the right direction.

On that note, I checked online for the International Women’s Day Malaysia celebration. There was an event, International Women’s Day Malaysia, 100th Anniversary Celebration organised on 5th of March 2011. While I am applauding the agenda of the event, the special performance baffled me: Sexy Belly Dancing? Well, nothing say celebration of women more than sexy belly dancing. WIN!

Mak Datin, definition: 1) wife of the rich Datuk in Malaysia 2) Talking very loudly and always flaunting their richness 3) Job description: attending social functions and gatherings. 

My job requires me to go mingle in some of the hottest golf clubs in Malaysia; attending meetings and just random social visits. This is a true story (kind off. Some of the information has been changed to protect their privacy).

I was having a short meeting with a manager at one of the best golf and country club in Malaysia. After that we had lunch at the golf club area.

Next to our table, there was a group of Mak Datins are having brunch. They are conquering the huge portion portions in the middle of the club house. Some of them even have personal assistance standing by with boxes that look like international gifts.

The calm atmosphere from the country club is being interrupted only by their laughter and loud gesture. Some of them are wearing a typical Malay elitist scarf; with a bulging hair spotted under the scarf. While others with their colored hair and huge diamonds on every inch of their body. Covered with designer clothes and the hint of their expensive perfume, they are on the top of the world.

I guess I better explain a little bit of Mak Datins’ lifestyle in Malaysian society. They are the one who’re ruling the society events in Malaysia. Their children are mostly studying overseas, private colleges and a frequent face in the social parties. Whereas, the husbands (Datuks) are the bread winner; more like the BMW and Mercedes winners. Mostly businessmen, some are also Government workers.

Back to the present, after about an hour of laugh out loud (literally), business deals that their husbands made and gossiping about local artists; on my defense I could not help but to eavesdropping into their conversation unless I am close my ears with both of my hands (worth trying).

We ended out lunch (and the Mak Datins group, brunch) and we walked to the car park. To my amusement, one of the Mak Datin said:

“Alamak, I forgot which car my driver sent me here. I wonder whether it’s this Mercedes or the other one”

I just was giggling all the way to the car. This is what we called socialite in Malaysia. So Malay drama! I should hang out here more.

Happy Weekend!

Nowadays, Twitter is getting too crowd with different types of users in it. Some of them are pleasant to be followed, while others will cause you a nightmare. I am not really a fan of unfollowing people (unless you’re really annoying). So I came out with ways to handle 10 types of Twitter followers.

1. The Jokers
These are my inspiration people, they have such a wicked mind, you will blame yourself for not thinking about it first. Not suitable for kids, mostly.

How to handle them: MUST Follow!

2. The Attention Seekers
They love the attention, mostly from their followers. These people are what we called artist wannabe! Being popular is their life virtue and will do anything to climb that popularity leader.

How to handle them: you must identify them quickly and not fall in their traps; like retweeting the nonsense things they tweeted. At times, you can also bury their desire by being a good hater! If somehow they have become an artist, please refer to the number 5 type (artist).


3. Educated
They will talk about politics, world and general issues at large. Some people find this type of Twitter user as informative.

How to handle them: If you’re planning to interact with them, you have to equip yourself with the latest things going on the world and occasionally tweet something intelligence yourself.

4. Self Monolog
They are born to be a writer, though most of them are not. In their own world, they usually talk about what’s going on in their life. It just like reading books!

How to handle them: This type of people is usually self sustain, they can tweet all day long without any single interruption from others. You can just sit back and enjoy their tweet without actually interacting with them. A rare breed and a must follow!

5. Politicians/Musicians/Artists in General
Just like in the real world, they are invading the Twitter too. Nonetheless, this kind of Twitter user can be useful when you need a dose of juicy gossip or just want to know the other side of the story.

How to handle them: Follow with care. Some of them are just talking about nonsense and will spam your timeline with all their replies, but there always a chance of getting to know the different side of them.

6. The Annoying one
There are two types of annoying people. The first one is what I classified as annoying when he or she starts to interrupt my personal conversation with my followers and or friends. This conversation might be continuity from a real life conversation that has nothing to do with this annoying prick (see how my mood changed now?).

Second type is the latest trend on Twitter – specifically in Malaysia. They called it “unmention”; where you have a conversation with your friends without actually mentioning the other person. Thus, you will be reading a conversation without actually understand a thing. I received lots of complains from my friends about this type of people.

How to handle them: For the first type, I usually will just ignore them and hoping that one day they will get it. For the unmention people, I finally found a genius solution apart from unfollow them: follow all the bunch of them. If you follow all of their kind, you can actually understand the whole conversation.

7. Bots/Spammers
Some of them are just posting feed from blogs/sites, others are just posting advertisements based on the keyword of your tweets. They might not even follow you, but still can automatically reply your tweets.

How to handle them: Block.

8. Thefts
Do you know how long it takes to write a well crafted tweet? I don’t either. Nevertheless, we should always give the credit to those who did.

How to handle them: retweet the real source if you can find it. That will send them subtle message.

9. Quoters
I love quotes, but some of you might not. Quotations can be an amazing mind opener, for those who want to discover.

How to handle them: Follow only those that are your cup of tea. You can follow love quotes, motivational or success and everything in between. Caution: Do not retweet all quotes that you read, if not you might be classified as spammer (see 7) or the annoying one (see 6).

10. Informants
From facts to the breaking news, they will provide a feed stream for everything.

How to handle them: Same as the aforementioned type, follow only those that are your cup of tea. Some of them will repeat the same things, therefore, be selective on who you follow.

Thus, follow with care!

Hey, I have been officially more than 1000th days on Twitter (since 11 May 2008). Cool huh?

Move away Tiger, this is my year! My colleague emailed me about my Chinese Horoscope. Apparently, I am Fire Rabbit; the leader of all the rabbits. On that note, welcome Rabbit year and Happy Chinese New Year to all my readers!

The year of the Rabbit: is in sharp contrast to the explosive year of the tiger. It is a year of placidity and respite where little will be set in stone; a carefree happy year that will be both temperate and relaxed.

By the way, have you noticed Hot Shit Form Here new look? Do you like it? I was inspired by beautiful book covers (yes, I love to read books, the real one). As mentioned by lots of reading posts lately, I always judge a book by its cover; well, you need an escape after all those words don’t you?

Let me know your thoughts!

P/S: Hopefully, this will be the boost I have been looking for!

Who are the 3 idiots on the road?

Evil drivers of HUGE truck/bus
Slow, unresponsive drivers
(Selfish, evil, I fooled you not) lady drivers.

They are basically the evil doers on the roads and can be dangerous to others.

Evil drivers of HUGE truck/bus

Needless to say, they are humongous; add that up with some of the most reckless driving skill we ever see, they are basically the Godzilla on the road. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw one long truck drove more than 100km/hr on the main highway (Federal Highway) in Kuala Lumpur. It even needs to use two lanes just to pass through a corner. Trust me, seeing one huge lorry with couple of containers on it surfing on the road is mesmerizing (and scary). How about those irresponsible bus drivers? They are basically committing a mass murder on the road. Idiot.

Slow, unresponsive drivers

When the road is becoming a battlefield, you never want the injured warriors to drag you down. Yes, the road doesn't need that kind of warriors. They might not be injured at all, they are just having all the time of their life, talking to the phone, watching the traffic lights turning red times and times again. Hey dude, I have to go to work for God sake.

(Selfish, evil, I fooled you not) lady drivers

I am not being sexist. However, I must admit that were times I swore in my car about the aforementioned drivers. They just don’t let you cut into their lane, do they? Once, there was a police roadblock and the two lanes road was diverted to one lane. This lady driver didn’t want to give the cars on the other lane to combine into hers. The police traffic was forced to stop her car and gave other cars to move into her lane. That sir, just made my day!

To have to wake up as early as 6.30AM just so that I can manage to get into the office by 8.30 AM every day is very tiring. Stressed out even before going to the office!

Have a safe journey guys and may you arrive safely to your respective destination. Happy Monday!

Note: Unless you fulfill all the descriptive characters above, please, I am not talking about you. If still offended, you are allowed to write some angry comments in the box below.

I know someone out there is still reading my blog. Thus, I will make sure I update my blog more often; starting with this short post. We will meet again, soon.

P/S: Fear not, I am not losing my wicked rambling cunt.

If you were banished to a desert island, and you could only take one thing with you, would it be a book? A recent survey in the Netherlands: 43% would take their TV set with them, 17% the radio, and 17% a stack of magazines. But no one mentioned taking a book! These are the 10 ways to make your reading more fun! 

10 Ways to Make Your Reading Fun!

1. Start reading your book
If you've read some of it already, just start there. Buy or borrow a book from your friends.

2. Judge a book by it’s cover
Contrary to popular saying, always judge a book by it’s cover.

3. Take your time
Take a break if it's getting too frustrating or tedious. Especially if the storyline is too heavy, you might want to read it in stages and digest everything in one page at the time

4. Make it as a gift
Everything is more exciting dressed in wrapping paper and a bow.

5. Read it out loud
Speak in different voices for different characters, and voice their emotions. It may sound childish, but it usually works.

6. Book VS Movie
In my opinion, it's best to read the book before you watch the movie. However, if you've already watched the movie, you can picture the characters and scenery as shown in the film. That's always fun to do!

7. Choose your book well
You can choose your favorite genre; chick flicks, comedy, black comedy, fiction, non-fiction, fantasy, biography etc. Suitable fonts, illustration, colors, type of papers.

8. Imagination is the key!
Let your imagination run wild.

9. Reading buddy
Find a friend that shared the same interest with you – you can share the reviews of the books, open up to different authors or genre based on your friends’ suggestions.

10. Encourage others
Your family and friends and try to cultivate reading habits from an early stage.

P/S: I am now reading The Finkler Question by Howard Jacobson!
