With the newest edition to the unending list of pandemic epidemic deceases,the swine flu(a.k.a pig flu to those who don't know what swine is) I can't help but to wonder what causes all these new subspecies viruses to emerge out of nowhere?
I read an article on swine flu from The Star and apparently the swine flu is a cocktail of bird's flu,(normal)swine flu and human virus which I have no idea how it got there...But that's just us,that's just typical human beings.We f*ck things up as a constant reminder,reminding us that we are living in a f*cked up world of poverty and pandemic crisis.
Not only that...even the slightest of things are taking your life by small means on a daily basis.
For example...my school canteen,the beverage sellers apparently has gotten their hands tied so tight that they have to resolve to RE-USE the straws that we just finished drinking with...ON A DAILY BASIS.I was joking about the hands tied tight part,but enough of that,I mean,is it even legal to re-use drinking straws that were just used?Of course they've washed it and all...wait...rinse is a more suitable word...but still...how expensive can a packet of plastic straws be?For f*ck sakes the canteen people are rich and yet they have to resolve to these outrageous tactics to save some cheap cash?
For crying out loud!You could be playing with human lives right now...especially with the viruses and the flues all around us and without proper sanitizing...people could get sick so easily...and worse...they'd be blaming it on the bad weather.I don't know the things that they are doing is legal or not...but when things get to a certain level...it has to stop...I don't mind if it's me doing the stopping.
Things that people do man...they just drive me mad!Another thing is...everyone knows that the exhaust smoke of an engine is deadly if inhaled long enough...but the f*cking smoking buses just can't seem to vanish.I thought the JPJ had put an order to stop all these nonsense and yet bullshit still prevails.
With all the things happening right now...there's only one word to describe my feelings about human kinds including me...disappointed...that's all I could say.

Earth Hour?
28th March 8:30p.m. to 9:30p.m....mankind stands up against global warming,yet,what I see are just people not knowing what the stand is about and not having any initiatives about this day.
I went to gurney,with expectations high,proud of being a part of something awesome.Caught a movie(Watchmen),end up almost being late for the 8:30 mark.I rushed down hoping to find a crowd of anxious by-passers just as excited as I am.
What I saw when I reached the dining area was a huge disappointment.Majorities of the shop having no part in it whatsoever,not more than 10 shops took part,and out of it some just closed the shop,as if they can't do business with some lights off?
It was like we Penangies not only do not care about our environment...but we take this day...the day that we should stand up against global warming as a day for a family gathering.
Watching peoples walking by,I see no hope in our country.To me Earth Hour in Penang,is like the ceremony before doomsday begins,celebrated with rain and lightning.Other people from around the world are well aware of the grave danger we are in,yet we could still manage to abide for our doom.
Do we not know how close we are to total annihilation?We are at the eleventh hour of our extinction yet an event such as this could still be left aside by the majority of the population...what an utterly stupid race we are.
People...Judgment Day is approaching sooner than we thought.Start doing something about it.The main point for Earth Hour is not to save energy,the energy from closing the light is peanuts,it's sole purpose is to urge people that our doom lies ahead if we do not start doing something,and fast.
Earth Hour 2009,Penang had failed to be in total support,people still don't care...not until something happens...and when something does happen,and it will,we only have ourselves to blame.
Stand up for a better world.Today you might not be aware,but the next day,the day after next,or even the day after the next,you will be aware of the doom we face.
PEACE
DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.
Earth Hour 2010...365 days and counting...

What's wrong?Confused and in despair...
Throughout the years,I've been on the verge of self-explosion,not knowing what's install for me,not knowing what path to choose.The irony and agony is indescribable.Questions filled my head,knowing that the answer won't be pleasant,I keep it to myself.
Thinking,the years do go by swiftly.As much as I like to deny it,the friendship that once was,is no more like the past.Frankly,I don't know what went wrong,come to think of it,now I know what it feels like being the odd one.
To be honest,if something did went wrong,I would gladly right it.But too bad,no one could help me find the wrong.In fact,no one would.I really hope there is a wrong to right,it would be awful knowing that something is wrong yet nothing you do could make it right.
Come to think of it,I guess I'm just not that much of a friend.Heck,even I myself hate me,who is to blame if someone hates me as well?
Ah,they say the best remedy to all problem is laughter.I suppose I could always laugh myself out of this predicament.As to will it be of any use,that's another story.

Exams...again...
Great...the good times have arrived...NOT!
It's the time of a year that consist of three more counterparts of its own...this being the first of the four...that's right...Exams here again.
We started off with the English paper...which...to be honest...I found rather dull due to the fact that our English teacher(a.k.a Ms.Ng) decided to test us with past year questions...which is somewhat uncreative...but then again...that's how our school rolls.
Come to think of it...I've been behind the schedule for quite awhile...can't imagine the books and assignments that I've piled up so far.Time for some last minute prep.Gotta start being a bookworm again...=.=...
Yesterday,there was an education convention held in my neighboring school...Colleges from around the country were there carrying out an introduction program of some sort...one of them...being the most attractive one...was not much of a looker...but it attracted crowds for their IQ questions which some where seemingly hard and some just plain ridiculous.
For instance...What question will you never answer 'yes' to?
Give it a shot.
Apparently the IQ test was a test to see if you could survive out there in the States.The organization behind the questions was in fact a High IQ Society which consists of more than 100,000 people from around the globe called MENSA.This Society is only for the privilege few who dwells on the surface of earth...2% of the whole population to be exact.
In all seriousness...I sure hope I could live up to my own expectations...though not too high...I wouldn't like to let myself down now would I?

Past and Present
What we have , we cherish;
What we don't , we seek;
What we had , we keep.
The most glorious of times had always been the past.People never actually take the present as something to be proud of.We compare our present to our past,never really appreciated what we have,always finding away to demote ourselves rather than complimenting ourselves on a fine journey.
Personally,I've been through some shit,I know that for a fact.If life were as simple as when we were but a mere innocent soul...ah...how wonderful might that be.Instead,time had to run it's course and the once innocent soul had been toiled into something no less than a dysfunctional compass which has lost it's sense of direction.
Like the devil itself,time has not always been kind to us,it takes away everything and leave nothing but a slight mark of existence.How impeccable was the past,when everything was right and nothing was of the matter,but now,the past is no less than words from our mouth...out and gone in an instance.
Yet again,time has been the very thing that keeps things in order,just like right now,time is telling me to go to bed.I suppose,what happened in the past,stays in the past,nothing we say or do could change it's course.
I guess,the present is not all that bad,after all,it's called present for a reason.Things that aren't going so well...the heck with it...like the tunes of one of The Beatles greatest hits...Let it be,let it be...I guess moving on is the only option,but,then again...weighing our options is one of the things we should do before making a foregone conclusion
That that is,is.That that is not,is not.
What we don't , we seek;
What we had , we keep.

Manchester United for the BIG 5?
That's right...all you Merseyside past-tense and Stamford Bridge wastefuls...watch out...Manchester United is heading for an unprecedented five trophies this season.Oh,don't forget that the Fifa Club World Cup is already in our possession,so that makes one down four to go.
We Reds top the Premier League table with only a couple of months to go,heading to Wembley for the Carling Cup final,in the quarter final of the FA Cup and the knock-out rounds of the Champions League.So,who are you to say that we can't make history...AGAIN!
Remember The Treble 10 years ago?Maybe after a decade,the trend continues...perhaps this time with us ending with an even more emphatic note.We would be the First ever team to be crowned as a Quinduple winning club.
With Liverpool out of the FA Cup and Arsenal with too young of a squad to coup the pressure...I guess the only team that could give us a slight challenge for the FA glory would be the team with a newly appointed coach in Guus Hiddink,the Blues...Chelsea.
Well...with England seemingly in our grasps...I guess the only challenging title for us is the prized UEFA Champions League title...which ofcourse is ours after what happened in Moscow on a cold Russian night.Barcelona among others are one of the team favoured for the title...with their season starting on the highest note possible...Messi's squad might prove to be a handful for us...hopefully we'll prevail...as we always do..:)
Before I end this post...I would like to dedicate a Nemanja chant for our one and only Nemanja Vidic..who had been spot-on all season long.
Nemanja!Whoa~
Nemanja!Whoa~
He comes from Serbia
He'll f*cking murder ye
Here's how the song goes..
PEACE

Meaningless?
Someone once told me that life is meaningless...true in some cases..but not always.
Life's filled with question-marks..never will you know what's installed for you. Joy,Acceptance,Fear,Surprise,Sadness,Disgust,Anger and Anticipation are the 8 emotions waiting for you to discover at every corner of your life.Some you might love it,and some you might not...that's just how life is.
So,personally I don't really agree that life is meaningless,some might find it so,but as for me...life is like a big party...enjoy it before it ends.
Back to the topic,if you find life meaningless,cause I know some people do think this way...well...you might wanna look at the uncountable numbers of human being that has ended their life to free themselves from their misery.Do I agree of their doing?NO,that's just plain stupidity and you'll find yourself dying in agony.
To those people who find life meaningless,I guess just haven't found your purpose in life,don't quit just yet,life is too short to be thinking of quitting.
Peace to you all..:)
