Mat Pencuri.

Ok,
it's official,
my grandparents just set the world record for
being the most robbed individuals in the world.
A record shattering 9 times (5 breaking and entering).

Damn,
honestly, if a mere thief can sneak under the AUTHORITIES' nose
and steal a huge Porsche AND filled the petrol tank,
seriously, no where is safe.

If i go on lamenting on this issue,
SOMEONE is bound to yak on how lame i am or whatever.
Well, i guess it's all up to the higher power now.
Or was i sleep talking.
You be the judge.

HAPPY

Hall, this is for you.
And no, i won't shoot you back with Irreplaceable.
Why don't you just fuck off and
wreck havoc in other people's blog?

I have all the rights to lament on whatever i like.

HAPPY

I understand why you're looking for tears in my eyes,
Trust me they were there but now the well has run dry,
I was in so deep, I couldn't get out
I sat on feelings that I buried deep down
I knew there come a day when our paths would cross
And I'm glad it's today 'cause now I am strong

I'm happy and I can thank myself
If it were up to you I'd be in my bed crying
But I'm happy, and I know that makes you sad
After all the things you put me through
I'm finally getting over you
I'm happy
I'm happy

There's a reason why we met and I'm glad that we did, yeah yeah
But when we broke up I got back a part of me I really missed
Not saying that you brought me down all the time
There were moments I lived without light on my side

I'm happy and I can thank myself
If it were up to you I'd be in my bed crying
But I'm happy and I know that makes you mad
After all the things you put me through
I'm finally getting over you


All the bitterness has passed
and I only wish you someone who can do what I can't

I'm happy and I can thank myself
If it were up to you I'd be in my bed crying
But I'm happy and I know that makes you mad
After all the things you put me through
I'm finally getting over you

I'm happy and I can thank myself
If it were up to you I'd be in my bed crying
But I'm happy and I know that makes you sad
After all the things you put me through
I'm finally getting over you

Banned on Tuition?? Don't you guys have better things to do?????

Ok, seriously,
the government is crazy.

Just yesterday, the government announce that they
would run a crackdown on tuition classes that were held by
school teachers.
The reason? They might fail to teach well in school
or some stupid reason.

Anyway, my problem isn't something to do with
no tuition, bad grades. I used to hate tuitions back when i was in school too.
My problem is, instead of putting up some bans and stuff on
tuition classes and fast food ads,
they should go after burglars and killers and crack addicts.

I mean, come on, a teacher's salary is about 3000,
how are you gonna survive with pay so low?
And it's not like they were doing illegal stuff like sniffing cracks
or making child porn or something.
They actually work hard to earn the money!
I personally knew of pair of tuition teachers (husband & wife)
who teaches well both in schools and tuition.
Thanks to both of them, i did well in my malays throughout my school years.
And what are they working so hard for?
To support their kids, the eldest of whom is venturing into medical school.

My grandpa was robbed twice by motorcycle gangs.
MALAYS. Yes, malays. But know what the cops ask my
grandpa when he was lodging a report?
They asked him if he was really sure that the gangs that robbed him
was indeed malays? And they asked in a very...unfriendly tone,
to put it mildly.

And worse yet, NO ACTIONS were taken.
Talk about good cop.

Gone were the days when the authorities care about people's safety and welfare
than how much "coffee money" (note: bribe) they'll get for the day.
And nowadays,
it seems the government cares more about making profits and stupid projects
that has no benefits to the people whatsoever (read: largest roti canai in the world)

Living the life.

Sometimes,
most of the times,
storms hit us,
but we ain't aware of it.

It took me a while,
to realize, the storm has landed on me.
Shattering what is of me.

But i fight it,
because i know,
for sure, that sunshine always
come after rain.
because i know,
i wanna keep walking in my life,
go on and on.

Now i'm fine,
now i'm well,
a brush with death,
is all it takes for me to realize,
living like you were dying,
sometimes, does helps.

And i will built a stronger wall,
to shield myself, from storms coming my way,
to live the day, the life, my life.
I wanna live,
and live on.
And one thing for sure,
i won't give up.

Pay It Forward

Sometimes The Simplest Idea Can Make The Biggest Difference.
When someone does you a big favor, don't pay it back... Pay It Forward

These are the 2 taglines from the 2001 movie entitled Pay It Forward,
starring Kevin Spacey, Helen Hunt and Haley Joel Osment.

Anyway,
the movie was inspired by a book written by Catherine Ryan Hyde.

WHAT IS “PAY IT FORWARD”?

“Pay It Forward” is a book written by Catherine Ryan Hyde, but it's also an idea. It's an action plan within a work of fiction. But does it have to be fiction? We're hoping not. In fact, since the book was released in January of 2000, a real-life social movement has emerged, not just in the U.S. but worldwide. What began as a work of fiction has already become much more.

Reuben St. Clair, the teacher and protagonist in the book “Pay It Forward,” starts a movement with this voluntary, extra-credit assignment: THINK OF AN IDEA FOR WORLD CHANGE, AND PUT IT INTO ACTION. Trevor, the 12-year-old hero of “Pay It Forward,” thinks of quite an idea. He describes it to his mother and teacher this way: "You see, I do something real good for three people. And then when they ask how they can pay it back, I say they have to Pay It Forward. To three more people. Each. So nine people get helped. Then those people have to do twenty-seven." He turned on the calculator, punched in a few numbers. "Then it sort of spreads out, see. To eighty-one. Then two hundred forty-three. Then seven hundred twenty-nine. Then two thousand, one hundred eighty-seven. See how big it gets?


So anyway, check out the movie,
and support the foundation by Paying It Forward!

Justin Lanning - Behind These Eyes

Just downloaded this incredible album by Justin Lanning, Behind These Eyes.

So, according to wikipedia.org, Justin is a vegetarian. He has two dogs, Spot and Vanilla. His favorite color is purple. He lives with his mother, Nansee Lanning. His favorite restaurants are Vegan Glory and iHOP. His favorite city is Amsterdam, in the song Without You he mentions Amsterdam.

Anyway, love his voice,
sounds a bit like Ryan Cabrera and Howie Day.
And the songs are all pretty catchy,
personal favorite is the 6th track, Waitin' On You,
a guitar driven ballad, about a person waiting on his lost love,
the loneliness and the pain.

Oooh, and the best part of this guy's voice is that, he doesn't
go over the top with his falsetto,
sound a lil' husky, and he's cute, bit like Jesse McCartney,
except he doesn't sound annoying like Jesse.
Haha... Sorry, Jesse's fans.

Oh, and check out his Vlog via Youtube.
Just look for Justin's World, most of which about how he save the world or whatever.

Of driving test and lessons...>.<

Yay!!!!

Just wanna share the great news that i
passed my driving test!!!!

Although i hit the pole,
and the stupid engine kept dying on me.
But whatever, i got my "P" license now!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hilary Duff - Stranger

This song and video sure reminds me of how my relationship with my ex was.
I was the one to be blame all the time. He's always the Mr. Perfect who does no wrong.

Glad it's in the past.

My Parents - The Cheapskate Workaholic

My parents, especially my mom is one heck of a cheapskate.
Know how much money they made last year? more than half a million, and
that doesn't include all the share profits, rental income etc...

It's 2 months till i'm going abroad, yet they were so cheap they bought me
a brandless 3 piece suitcase from Carrefour for 99 bucks instead of the Camel Active
one i had my eyes on months ago.

Reason: 399 bucks = too expensive.

I mean, come on, my mom was known fro her bad case of handbags fetish. Just 'bout a month ago, she spent 5000 something on a teeny lil' Luis Vuitton tote of which she never use but store in her glass case instead.

Besides the stupid bag, my parents bought en of thousands worth of jeweleries, a 500k bungalow, tons of shoes, clothes, bags and stuff.

Yet, they complain a 30 bucks paperback novel is too expensive. They even freaked out when i spent 100 bucks pre-ordering the limited edition Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

Anyway, the suitcase is just one of the many old stuff i asked her to upgrade 'em for me.
My Laptop, cellphone, mp3 player, wallet etc. She even ask me to buy my winter clothes when i reach Taiwan, on one conditions, if the weather there is real cold. Else, there's no need splurging on sweater, coats, beanie, earmuffs. See how cheap they are?

Being cheapskates is beside the point, these few days, although i'm with my parents 24/7, seems they were more concern over who owe them money and who's tax haven't been calculated than whatever i say. And even worse, we arrive at their office early in the morning, around 7, and will only go home around 8pm! The home we live in sure feels more like a motel than a home.

Poor Cole and Dylan (my pet mini green tortoises), sometimes i'm just so tired, i forgot to change wash their tank, feed them or play with them.


So, welcome to my crazy life, filled with a set of cheapskate workaholic parents.
