LAMENTED AT; 12:22 pm
It's alive!!
My computer is alive!!! after lots of troubleshooting and a final reformat, it's back to its usual self,
minus all the laggyness and stupid errors. =DOn Tuesday
xianwei,
Jo and I went to mv to watch
stardust! I have to admit, one of the better movies I've seen in a
loooong time. Now that i think of it, I can't recall the last time I watched a good movie. and I think it's waaay better than transformers.
( I know I'm going to get whacked by that comment but who cares? I'm a sucker for feel good movies:) 
So, before you watch stardust, ask yourselves... (as quoted from
philip. =P)
Do you like fantasy?!Do you like fairy tales?!Are you a sucker for romance?!if you've answered yes to all these questions, chances are... you'd like stardust. =D

Moving on... I had a pleasant enough debate with
XianWei while we were getting a drink at Midvalley. Just so you know I don't usually like to bring politics up but I guess he really put me on the edge. So yeah,
politics smcholitics, I've come to the bottom line that
XianWei loves Malaysia far too much. That's amiable I suppose, but then again, Patriotism drives people, and sometimes those drives aren't necessarily always beneficial. He blogged about it, but some of the things I said he couldn't remember and so their a bit messed up. So hear I am to clear things up.
Just let me get
ONE political post down. I'll try never to bring it up again. bare with me here..
First of all..
I do not agree fully with Barisan.
I think it's stupid that the government should give
sooo much
special rights to the bumi's. It's unfair to the other major races. I have nothing against Malays, their a wonderful bunch and they could do soo much better if they didn't have the government spoiling them all the time. BN doesn't realize that by giving them so much privileges, they are indirectly
encouraging them to be lazy.
This of course just keeps going down a downhill spiral. Do the math. if they get lazier, their progress slows down, and the government has to keep giving the special rights to them. they keep getting even more dependent!!
This applies to most bumi's. not all. And I am not implying that its their fault. It's the governments!
Say you know a spoiled kid, do you blame the parents or the kid? Same concept.
Secondly...
We all know our government is one of the most stubborn ones around.
I take that back, stubborn and
IN DENIAL. The worse possible combination you could probably have. What makes you think they are going to let a bunch of oppositions,
(say an opposition political party) make amends, give suggestions or even be a part of the ruling system?Like
whats-his-name demonstrated on
WORLD WIDE television. he denied there were ever protests happening in KL. It was pretty stupid of him to do that when CNN had photographic evidence. strike one for our politicians.
If we know they are so stubborn, they obviously won't change right? so instead of killing ourselves and fighting against them, might as well just let them make their own mistakes and yes,
run the country to the ground. Then maybe after that they won't have any more pride left to ever make stupid mistakes again. After all, our politician's mentality cannot possibly get any worse than this. and the people suffer? those who are smart enough will invest in other countries which are doing better. Or maybe it'll be worth if for everyone else to suffer. That will really hit them in the head like a
bleeding brick.
After all, if you're ready for bloodshed, why would a little economy crisis be any different?Thirdly...
The people of the world still think that Asians will never measure up.
Sad but true. No matter what you think, there is still an invisible wall that separates us Asians from the
Americans and Europeans. Because whether we choose to believe it or not,
they are still taller, bigger, stronger, and more manipulative than us. Thus, we will still be looked down.
Now, if we are now doing quite well over here, why should we waste our time and move to some other country, where Asians are looked down upon and not given the jobs and career opportunities they by right should get. So, we should all live with the system now, invest, make money and take it somewhere else to spend if you get tired of the government here. Nevermind the people who haven't used the
'hak istimewas' to their full advantage. screw it!
Versatility!
when life gives you lemons, be a lemonade tycoon!
BAM. franchise baby.
And lastly..
I know why my family doesn't vote for DAP.
They don't exist in our area.
poooh. We've come to a point where racial issues are so sensitive, that a little tip of the balance will send us tumbling into riots and protests. Vote for DAP not because they'll be any better, but because we have to keep our BN on their toes.
So ends my first and hopefully last political post in ages. whhooppie! =D
...
So you don't forget I'm still me. xP
Have a good night ya'll!
UPDATE!
I almost forgot.. Supposed to do a tag about the form 3 bloggersphere. here it is!
Jocelyn Lim
www.xanga.com/exquisitephenomenonOne of the the most honest blogs I can find. it's completely about the life, troubles and emotions of a 15 year old girl. It makes you feel like you know her really up close and personnel. Also never fails to make me smile whenever she feels very strongly about something.
GracieLamannequin-masquerade.blogspot.comAn intellectual insight to issues and dilemmas facing the world and also witty POV on issues to do with life. emotions and feelings are weaved very well into quotes and lyrics she posts along with her posts. Simple, yet fairly easy to understand.
KengYeeChocwww.morereminiscence.blogspot.comEntertaining and a very advertisement written-style blog. Fun and easy to read, complete with bold, underlines, and italics which make a seemingly funny enough post even more funny. light hearted yet too the point, perfect for light reading and when you're feeling like the world is made of rocks.
XiaoYunhttp://www.xanga.com/icejanitorAn in-depth view of how she feels and what makes the girl tick. When you read it you really feel for her and have some idea of what she's going to. This blog definitely grows on you. It's written such that you see things in an almost theater like view where events in her life are amplified and remembered.
XianWeihttp://shady1214.blogspot.com/A blog all about issues facing us today that usually incorporates politics and hormones. It's fun to read when you strongly feel the same way he feels. it just adds sense, and a bit more salt to the story, allowing you to explore further into the situation without having to think too much. hurts my eyes though.
EllieTanhttp://www.pinkpandaeli.blogspot.com/A blog that makes you feel very very comfortable reading. it makes you feel like hugging her and you get the same sensation as snuggling up to a fireplace when it's cold. Her posts are written such that it feels like she is talking to you personally and also addresses environmental issues.
GO ELLIE! =D
JunChuenhttp://www.chuen-slams.blogspot.com/A very straight-forward and blunt account of things. Jokes, catch phrases and comments which often keep wobble in your head even after you've read it. Entertaining, yet still exhibits the true essence of Junchuen. Hardly updated but worth a shot.
Carlmannhttp://carlmann.blogspot.com/A blog with meaning. usually depicts the state of mind the blogger is in. While so posts can be very deep and emotional, some posts are filled with happy times and good memories.
JoshChanhttp://jshchn.blogspot.com/Hardly ever updated. But a good description of what special events have happened in his life. Like I said, hardly updated, but otherwise, worth checking up on.

So it ends! I'll write more reviews next time. Right now I'm just so freaking tired. tahh.
So you don't forget I'm still me. xP
