Imagine this person...

Who tries to spread the message of environment awareness to anyone, encouraging anyone he meets to car pool to reduce petroleum usage which is depleting rapidly. Having said that, he continues by stating that we can prolong the life span of earth by another 10,000 years if everyone in the world does that. He too promotes Earth Day, Al Gore's campaign, SGM's Earth Charter and etc.

And yet today, he drove Toyota's Unser ALONE to Kelana Jaya's Giant Supermarket to buy Chinese New Year's clothes, not feeling guilty at all until he reaches home.

Fuck him, man

Yes, the 'he' is me. So, fuck me.

My action has shorten Earth's life by 20%.

YOOOO~!!!

President Barrack Obama in da House~!!!

And it is da White House~!!!

His speech is really really good. Inspiring is the word. He made sure that the audiences and listeners around the world are the part of this historic 'change'. He made sure that it is the people's effort that will result the situation of the future.

And now he has to deal with the economy crisis. I could hear him say, "It's ain't fair~!!!" The world awaits his decisions and actions. This is his first challenge in the seat of one of the most powerful person in the world.

And yes, a random note. I have read Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code. Oh my goodness. So many information just stuffed into my head. So many contradictions, allegations, and differences. It sound absurd, yet true. Priory of Sion, Opus Dei, Constantine, The Last Supper, The Rose Line, The Mona Lisa, Leonardo Da Vinci, Sir Issac Newton, The Knights Templer, etc. etc. WOOO~~!!!

Lots of interesting fact. A book recommended to all. If anyone feels that this book is hurting your culture or religion, then I suggest you to stop reading. The facts inside may deepen wounds, crop up controversy, or even produce extremist (against the author, that is).

I'm tempted to read it again. Grr... >.<

Encounter with supernatural

We were having our ex-Form 5 gathering in Nando's, One Utama when something freaky happened. Geoffrey realises...



... that the fork is attached to the knife... BY MAGNETISM???!??

Dude, I have no idea how it happened.

Either the knife (which we found out that it's the knife being the temporary magnet) is placed nearby somewhere that involves lots of rotational kinetic energy (like air-conditional, ceiling fan, table fan, etc.) OR a restaurant crew has nothing to do but to rub a piece of magnet against the knife to magnetize the knife.

But something is distrubing.

We got a shock when we tried to test the strength of the magnetized knife.

Dude!!! It can actually supports the weight of
TWO FREAKING HEAVY FORKS!!!

Ming Ting was amused, thinking that Geoffrey performed a magic trick. Lolz~!

How did it become so strongly magnetized??? And I'm going to eat with magnets??????

See? No tricks. It's freaky.

Then we realised that other knifes also suffered the same fate (or is it benefited the same miracle?). And while I'm typing this blog, a question came into my mind.

What about those who wears braces???

Dare not ask them. Thank you. >.<

Most of us don't really get into this (only Alairic, as I know of), but how many times do we ask ourselves this question:

What's our purposes in life?

This question will only come and go when we get emo-fied, or when you're attending a funeral, or when you have nothing to do in your house while waiting for your STPM results to come out.

Back to the question.
-
Do we play the role as an innocent bystander, overlooking the happenings around us?
-
Do we add misery to this over-populated world, occupying somebody else's a lifetime worth of oxygen?
-
Do we just repeat what others have done: grow in size, study, work, get married, grow old, and die?
-
OR
-
Do we take this opportunity to contribute something to add to the beauty of this world?
-
Do we have the initiative to shape the world it supposed to be?
-
Do we do our job that is universally accepted and liken by majority in the world:
Being happy?
-
This post is dedicated to anyone out there who is feeling lost in life or experiencing doubts in self and so forth.

The recent education fair in KLCC helps me make up my decision.

Finally.

After talking to counsellors after counsellors and lecturers after lecturers, my first choice of career is engineering in electrical and electronic. I liked the prospect of using big amounts of Watts to do something great AND using small tiny-weeny amount of electricity to process multitudes of functions. Career wise: must find a scholarship that has bond so that I can start working without looking for a job.

Time to survey for scholarships. Sigh.

Oh, and my second choice (don't tell my parents) is music. But the requirement is out of the picture (grade 5 in theory and practical; must pass the audition of many-weird-names test). Yikes.

Oh, and for those who is expecting something random, go find Jeff Dunham in YouTube. He is a ventriloquist and a comedian, and a very good one too. To spark some familiarity, he is famous for Achmed the Terrorist act (pronounced with a flam; Ach-ch-ch-ch-ch...). Watch it below. =D

Initially I ignored the news about Israel attacks in Palestine.

But the front page of The Star is very disturbing.

Why must the innocent children be the victims?

Will this solve the problems between Israel and Palestine? Will this stop the terrorism sourcing from Palestine? Will this solve ANY problems at all???

Using brute force to prove a point is bad enough. Murdering children is the ultimate sin of all.

My goodness. This is terrible. United Nations, please do something quick. Don't take your time choosing between dignity and humanity.

I would like to share something with you readers:

Heard of the legend of Jesse Owens?

He represented United States team in 1936 for Olympics. What happened during that time was historical.

During that time, the Olympics were held in Berlin. It was the era of Hitler, who took this event as an opportunity to show the power and pride of the Nazi. He called his German team "superhumans", while predicting that his team will win in every events (which it almost did).

Then come Jesse Owens.

Competing in the 100m, Jesse Owens won the gold medal, much to the frustruation of the dictator. Denting the hopes of achieving the ultimate, Hitler refers to him as an "animal", although not obviously but with a hint from which he refer Owens as "it".

Later, Owens won a gold medal from 200m, adding salt to Hitler's wound.

Then come the long jump. Due to lack of people, the team picked Owens as their representative. Initially, Owens fouled in his first two jumps. Before his final last attempt, suddenly his rival, Luz Long from Germany, came out to him and point out his mistakes. This is the perfect example of sportsmanship especially with the fact that Long was in Hitler's team.

Yes, you guessed it. Owens won a gold medal from long jump, hurting the dictator's ego once more.

Then he continued to win another gold medal from 4 x 100m relay.

In his only Olympic appearance, he won four gold medals which was obtained against all odds.

What can we learn from here?

From difficulties and challenges, we can push our limits. We can take obstacles and turn it into something positive, that is an oppurtunity to win out of the situation. By looking at this way, life will be more meaningful.

Fantastic story, ya? =D

Random thoughts:

REASONS BEING
IN THE LAST PLACE IS IDEAL

Last place in the cinema can get full view of the show. If you're too front, you will not be able to see the full picture, thus getting neck strain due to looking up and swinging head side to side.

Last place in the examinations gives you an opportunity to become "better" in the next term examinations. By getting as-long-as-not-in-last-place position in the next term exams, it is considered an "improvement" and people will congratulate you.

Last place in the bus gives you opportunity to escape whenever there's any mishaps happens. That's because the safety door is always at the back.

Last place in the lecture hall gives you opportunity to relax yourself without being noticed. You can even become mischievous and evil.

Last place in the roller coaster gives you longer climax time. As the coaster ascend, you are right behind. So, when the coaster began to accelerate its' first drop, you are STILL behind going up, thus prolonging your climax time. This makes your money's worth.

Random, right? =D
