ciao 2007, wassup 2008..

Nobody's online..probably out.. for the New Year..well...going out with friends may be fun and all.. but let me tell you.. nothing beats a great meal at home.. you see..my dad's friend is already here..and. by the looks of it..it's either Chicken or turkey..
wait let me check.
oh..we got two big Chickens..damn.. patience.. probably won't be done for quite a while but..ooh.. i'm getting hungry already..

haha..

just imagine..another year is almost about to end.. and really..why is time flying so fast?
someone should go tie time to a metal ball and chain.. that should slow it down..
During this time, doesn't it make you wanna just stop and think for a while about everything you did and didn't during the year..
your accomplishments, your mistakes, regrets, all too late to change...
darn...i'm sounding like a bloody emo.. haha.. the years ending..we should be happy..
here goes..
next year, i'll be 15.. alrite.. continuing the path of teenageship..and pretty soon..after all the test and exams.. we'll be adults .. and our whole selves will change dramaticaly.. and because of that.. we must really live the most of our teenaged lives.. c'mon.. being mature and all that kinda scares me.. imagine one day.. your watching tv and Mtv's on... you go .."Why the hell did i like watching this?" ugh.. i wonder what's on CNN..

So.remember.. we won't be kids forever.. so act so mature and just..for once..act your age..
and..
a Happy New Year!!.
don't go spraying foam on cars okay..

Comments

Hey...i know what i'm about to tell you i obviously obvious..but....
why whenever i post something short, simple and funny...i get tonnes of comments..
but, if i put my life in ink,wait..no! life in pixels... where, i put most of my thought into.. my blood sweat and tears, and maybe urine if it weren't for XXXL diapers. i barely get a reply....
doesn't it just make wanna say...wtf!?..

bloggers thrive on comments...it's the reason why they're even posting on their blogs...so they can get comments from their readers...if you don't think this is true..get a diary man..
ok.. analogy time..

think of comments as a hot girl..or for the females..a hot guy..or for Jay, a hot guy and a girl..
we do everything we can so that we can get noticed by the hottie/hotties....
so..we try our pathetic desperate attempt to do so...
if the person notices and responds positively..a smile a wink..anything...we get happy..darn happy..or maybe even a negative one..like an "eff off" or the finger..hey..at least..you got noticed..
but..what happens if he/she ignores you.. won't you feel shitty?...

So..try to comment.. pour our your thoughts out about their post..
a positive one a negative one..as long there is a response....
it could be a...
"wow. i like it"
or even a simple
"lol"
or even...

"What the...hey, guess what? nobody even bloody cares so STFU!!!"
okay..maybe not that....
haha..
well..gotta go..
i'm about to solve man's greatest mysteries
why the hell can't i gain weight..

Puke fest

Aughh..i never thought i could get it..never once..my Mom had it just recently..but i thought she just wasn't careful enough...i've been safe..i always done it safely, safety first..well..i just messed up i guess. shouldn't have done it last night no matter how much i lusted for it.. pretty soon it'll come out. My tummy hurts already..and i still haven't told my family yet..



Haha...

i sound like i got pregnant.. before you start wishing me congrats...no no..don't worry.. i'm not freaking pregnant. So jay..just give up..and even if i had one..i'll never call him/her Jay ...it just doesn't fit with Chua okay? haha..



i'll explain...i have..gulp.. a case of indigestion..yeah..i said it.. Brings back memories..i remember the last time i had it...it was after eating that Delifrance bread..ughh..twice..but seemed far better compared to my dad's 9..after that..my family never ate there again..
i always like disturbing Brandon during Science when we were doing digestion.. he'll tell me to quit it whenever i reach the part about the bile coming out..

well..this time...i suspect it was that Maggie Instant Mee that i ate last night..ughh.. the pain..
as i'm suffering here.. you guys go read about my experience so far....
well..like i said..i ate some instant mee which was probably passed its expiry date..groan..
it was after eating it.. i felt a little rumble down there...i thought it was just the spices..so i downed a cup of 100 plus..
everything seemed fine..watched tv and went up to sleep at 12..
that's when the grumbling turned to an earthquake.. at first i thought it was a tummy ache or something.. so like my dad always said..i took a trip to the can..you know...a number 2.. fine..
i shat!..

even doing so..i never felt any better..
i tried to sleep.. but whenever i imagined a beautiful scene in my head..u know ...meadow..dandylions..girls..etc.
the rumbling would start.. and i was pulled away from lala land....ughh...so.there i was lying on my bed.. a bucket in front of me..and just waiting there..for the eruption.... there wasn't any.. so..i read one of my books to keep my mind off things.. yes.. Raven's Gate..Power of five..
such a darn nice story..2/3rds finish..well..at the end..i didn't barf..i fell asleep..at 3am..
woke up at 9.30
the pains still there.. argh..the fekking pain..
actually..it really does feel like a volcano..
i can feel the warm gunk rising up my throat..but then i goes down again..

haha..
well..
that's all./.bb

More adventures with the family

my family's outings are always the same.I mean, c'mon, talk about slaves of routine. Well, okay...to give you any idea of what i mean, here's my usual weekend out with the Chua family.
It all starts on Friday, yes most people disagree with me that Friday isn't considered a weekend. Well, to my family, it is.

Where was I, oh yeah! My parents would come back from work earlier than usual with all their worked my ass out selves, and bring their three children to the City for dinner. Location to be exact. Pavilion. Most people would be too pooped out on a Friday to go anywhere...
considering I have a 1 to 6pm schooling session....sometimes my dad would pick me up from school and go there directly. Isn't that great. Well, to some people, it's suicide. But think of it this way.

After a tiresome day at school, studying, wouldn't it be nice if you could go out and eat a lavish and delicious meal at a fine restaurant or enjoy the choices available at the foodcourt. After eating your full, you get to enjoy reading comics, books, mags in the the so called Member's Lounge where the person in charged is always gone... Hey, when life gives you lemons, make lemonade!
After that, your sipping your cuppa at Coffee Bean...

oh...I planned to only write about 3 or 5 paragraphs and already i just finished the first day.. Don't you bloggers just like it when you plan to keep it short but instead, you get carried away and you fill in a whole novel. That's what i call a true blogger!..
Fine fine..i'll keep the rest short..

On a Saturday, we'll either head to Midvalley Megamall or somewhere further like Ikea...
On a Sunday, it's either take out Chicken from Ayamas, or a trip to leisure mall..
you see, my mom's isn't really one of those great house wife cooks...( i can't believe i just wrote that) but she can whip up a mean Chic Stew...

well..that's all..just imagine doing that every weekend over and over again....ughh..

Making progress

Okay, the dreaded subject, wait, let me rephrase that, the dreaded subjects. School, will be the topic of my post today.

haha. aren't i evil, as you guys are trying to make the best of our soon to end holiday, someone brings it up and ruins your day.Exams we have to study for. Your comfortable beds that you have to bid farewell in the morning. You'll have to start wearing ties and those tacky uniforms. And furthermore, next year's PMR will be a force to reckon with. Don't you just wanna kick my arse. It's like telling an inmate how many days left he has to live before he recieves the death sentence.



i know i know. it really ain't the liveliest of things to talk about. just thinking about it makes me moan and sigh. But take this as a reminder. Just imagine. Your in a Cyber Cafe playing your favourite online game.(never been to one, do they surf drinks there? Get it? Serve and Surf. No sense of humour la you guys) Suddenly, the tauke comes to you and says you got 15 minutes left. You reach in your pocket but you find a pack of gum but no money.

So, you go sulking and face the screen with a sad face that remains unchanged even after managing to frag Jay Shen and Foong in one bullet.( Sorry, CS, COD) Frag is kill in games.
Instead, why don't you just enjoy what time you have left. Go on and try that girly dancing game you always wanted to play, make faces to the office guy beside who's doing his work till he gets annoyed and leaves, ask for the girl you spotted upon entering for her number eventhough you know she 16, go search for porn..haha..

so..remember.. don't spend you're last days sulking about what 's to come, instead have fun, make memories worth reminiscing and furthermore, you can use them to fill out those darn "what the heck i did during the holidays" or " apa saya buat pada cuti yang lalu" essays...

wow.another analogy.....
i love making them..

You know. when i blog. i always like the fact that i always change the subject. But i'm too busy typing away to notice that i've gone overboard..take notice to my post title. Making Progress..
well..since i'll be in morning session next year....i have to quit of my 2 to 12 sleeping pattern...
today miraculously i woke up at 9 but collapsed on the couch and woke up again at 11...
haha...will i ever make progress?

Tuesday, December 16, 2008

oh..yeah..

i hate to say it .
but i really wanna change how it looks..it's oring...it's plain n simple...doesn't reflect my personality
so MTV..would you pimp my blog?

a product of procrastination

hoho...the year's almost ending....why???....i always wondered..when i was young(nolar..this ain't a grandpa story) time flew pretty slow and steady for me...but now!..wow.. i can barely see it pass by...
it's already half of December and all i can say is.." wow! that was fast" and i'm really asking myself this..have you done all of your goals for this year...yup..your list of things to do before the big 2009...oh man...talk about mid life crisis man..i'm not even 50 yet....ok lets see...

my list of 2008..

1. jump out of a plane (ugh...i go KLIA tomorrow)
2. stop PROCRASTINATING (this i tanggung untill next year) jeez..that's what i said last year
3.clean my room once and for all and maintain it!
4.get a little fatter ( i eat and eat but no diff)
5.get an electric guitar
6.act my age..lol
7.less absent minded
8.do something illegal?
9.be able to reach the net in bball
10.grow bigger balls...no no..not literary..i'm fine with mine

well..that's all i can think of....
and oh yeah...here's one more...
finish that darn PITA school holiday homework...
i remember the school giving out our homework....
they told us to do it during school ...but i protested..saying why do they call kerja rumah cuti sekolah then?
well....i was ignored..and almost the whole class was quietly sitting on their desk scribbling away..
i wish i could take that all back.....

that's all...from
Si Procastinator..

Sg Congkak

wow..last weekend..i had a trip to Sg Conkak, Hulu Langat...a camping trip..
With Boon and Kok Ming tagging along. what's to be afraid of..huh......
dum dum DUM!!!!
i was wrong, once again....
well...
i'm speaking for everyone, but we all expected fun fun fun, where we could build a tent, sleep in it, and do things that couldn't have been done in the City

ohkay...let me start on my SUPERDUPERCAMPINGTRIP.
i reached school at about 7:30
walking thru the main gate, i spotted my gang sitting there with Raul..
yes..the RAul...
i approached the idiots, (jk)
and we compared what we brought...as we told each other our contents of our bags we noticed that
we all brought shampoo but left out soap...hey...it don't matter

as we were waiting for the bus to arrive..
me and boon made metal versions of songs...as we laughed along, Kok Ming seemed anoyed...haha...

Saw you for the first time yesterday!!!!
Finaly found da mising part of me!!!!!!
(MAde UP guitar solo)

we're just a bunch of metal heads...
ok..
lets skip the bus ride cuz we did completly nothing..
ok ok..
so there we are..looking at the crap hole that was called the D'Congkak Resort..
hah! resort my butt..
completely different from what i expected..
u know...when you hear..a resort..
we imagine...Hotel rooms with air conditioning...a decent restaurant..
a cool pool to cool off in..
ohohohoh..
the place we were supposed to stay in was far from it...
A small river..a couple of so called chalets...that looked like army cabins...
toilets that reek...
after putting our bags...
we finaly knew what we were into..
this isn't one of those camping trips ..it's far from it..
it's boot camp!!!!!>
the first thing on all of our minds were ESCAPE.....RUN RUN RUN
my guess was correct when we finally met our drill sergeant...
the cliche
chubby, sunglasses, knife, moustache and army hat and all..
screaming at us....
everytime we do something wrong,....
boom..
down 5 times...
i dunno what izit called..
but you cross your hands and pull your ears and go down and up...
wow....
and let me tell you..
the whole thing was filled with it...
everytime...Turun lima!!!!
then he goes ..
satu....tak sama lagi skali....
satu.....dua.....tiga......
you get me?

we had 6 meals a day...( had to use our hands)
and only slept for 2 hours....( when i came home at 5;30 am....i slept non stop till monday morning 9
yup...that's right...3am till 5am
well.....i learnt alot from the camp actually..\
i became more responsible, less selfish, teamwork, fairness, and the best of all...friendship..
to tell ytou the truth...
i'd do anything to do that again,
i have to go to leisure mall...at 1
bb

Friday, November 7, 2008

owkay...
a couple more days till school's done for the year...
alrite!!!!!!
i wasn't planning to go to school today..but because of Kok Ming and his "i'm not forcing you, you don't want also can" line...
looks like i'm going...
actually the reason i wanted to ponteng is because of this Kursus Kenegaraan..
aiya...don't let me get started...
first...Pn Rozita comes outta the blue and chooses me to participate along with chow...and she adds...Wajib
here are the terms of events yesterday...
i arrive at school with Chee Han...
half an hour late for the kursus thing...
before i head to the kursus which is located at pusat sumber 2...or what i call it..
a room with only one functioning air cond and a tape and vcd player!
c'mon...vcds?
outdated man...
well...so...i head to my usual spot before going to the pit of boredom...
and look whose there...
Kok Ming, Kwok Han, Brandon
i ask them for my partner, Chow...
Kok ming said he was already there...
so there is where i went next...
and surprise surprise, Chow wasn't there...
so..anyway..i stupidly signed my name..to register..
they gave me a file and sat next to Razneil...and if that wasn't bad enuff..
i actually thought it was one of those a couple of hours talks about our country\
was i wrong or what...
there was a timetable for our bore fest...
there will be 5 ++ talks..and every one of them will be about the rukun negara..
fuyoh...
it was going on for the whole day and the day after that...
so, like any good 2 Amanah student would do,
I RAN!!!!
i just took my bag and *zoom!!!*
made like a banana and splitted...oh yeah...Chow already came when i decided to become a fugitive, so, he was my accomplice...
well..to make a story short...i got caught i mean we...as in four...well..Luqman and Nazmi decided to follow us as well...
as we were high fiving and laughing along, Pn Rozita came into the class and apprehended us...
all four of us took the walk of shame back
to make another story short...
we ran again...lol...
but we decided to make it more strategic...but i think the being the only two chinese boys there..
our disappearance will be very obvious..
anyway...we waited for a little distraction...and we sneaked out..one by one...Chow first...
then me, the rest later....
wow, did i run!..
luckily, it was recess, so i dashed to the canteen as fast as i could just in case if there was anyone following me...
i got surprised looks from Dharashini and Yuet Lee as i ran past them...
you know...as i was making my getaway..a song was played in my head...
Check Yes Juliet..haha
run baby run, don't ever look baack
well, after that, we were never caught and we had a wonderful PJ....

so..that was my experience being a criminal on the run
but i ask myself,
was that the right thing to do..
YES...
not an ounce of guilt,
no regret,
(though, i lost my chance of getting a sijil but so what?)
last days of school shouldn't be spent listening to some teacher talk about our Rukun Negara...
it should be getting wonderful memories to reminisce with whenever you feel bored or have nothing to do...


oh yeah..
i watched Heroes yesterday..
awesome!..
but i'm getting that confused but wanting more feeling whenever i watch it...
every episode will end in either a confusing way or a i need to know what happens to ______ way...
well..this time it ended in both....
are Peter and Sylar brothers?
how will Hiro get the half of the formula that could destroy the world back?
why is Linderman back from the dead?

suspense that lasts a whole week!!

Tuesday, November 4, 2008

exams are over....and, i'm bored...nope i still haven't found anything to do yet, i'm just watching movies my mom bought, i finished Saw 3....
actually, it wasn't scary, just disgusting...
lots of screaming and blood....
weell, Jia Wei's off to Taiwan today,
sad...hopefully he remembers to bring me Jolins bra...
Jia Wei, i'm counting on you!

so now, school's a bore, our lousy pengetua (i'd prefered the pengetua before her)
she gives us school holiday homework and asks us to do it at school...
c'mon, what's with that??
doesn't she understand that after exams are meant for enjoying your time left in this school,
no matter how bad your school is.
i'm been bringing cards and chess...
and surprisingly, it can fill our day of nothingtodoness....
but it depends on the teacher...
some of them are understanding and not so tight, so they don't bother us ( you see, our pengetua bans games of any sort )
while other teachers, who are blahdy slaves to their work..zvknj.bdkjlfbdaadbulfilbuiaerq

sorry. i was pounding the keyboard..
so..eventhough some teachers go "nak saya rampas ke?" or " eh! keep!KEEP!"
we try to play secretly...

let me ask you.
have you ever tried strip poker under your Sejarah teacher's nose...
welll....

THEBLOODYDOOR

hey,
i've been checking out youtube
and i came across this...
i don't wanna tell much about it, you have to see it yourself...kinda crappy but i like it..
does that make me crappy too?















here's the so called haunted video..
just for you information..
i haven't watched it fully yet...
it was early in the vid and suddenly i had this strange headache..
freaky huh?
i stopped immediately
tell me if you died or anything


Tuesday, October 28, 2008

hello, my exams are almost over,
it was easy overall.
all that's left are seni and sivik which is tomorrow....


post exam boredom has already started and lemme tell ya,
i'm bored! i need something to do!
i'm so bored, i'd get bored of being bored
well, will try desperately to find something to do. even if it's studying. nah take that back.
song writing?



i have an hour till school, i'm suspecting only half the class will be there
i'm sorry...i have nothing to talk about,
my posts are starting to sound like those radio news stations.
one by one, first news, second news..
it's just that my heads not working it's best.....
don't you ever have those typa days, where your mind is blur and your thoughts are blank....
hopefully i'll recover, so till i have something better to write..

EARTH!!!

hello...bloggy...
if your wondering, the studying is alrite for me.
tomorrow's the day, but i get this feeling that i'm not prepared..
why is that? it's kinda a first for me...
so, tomorrow i'm going to school early to study..
yes! i said that..
i, CKJ just said that HE is going to school EARLY to STUDY....

you know, speaking about studies, lemme tell you bout something,
i just finished my sejarah folio, and it's blahdy thick!!

FOLIO'S ARE A FREAKING WASTE OF TIME AND PAPER...
think about the trees...
let us get our marks from the exams and exams only...

ohyeah...
since we're on the topic of the enviroment.
there's people who don't care about it and there's my mom...
she is what cha call it,
enviromently unfriendly.
it was throwing junk away time and i told her about seperating my junk to be thrown away..
she just scolds me, saying,
just do it...
Also...once at the supermarket, i had to carry some juice and milk..
she asked for a double bag, i told her no need, think about the enviroment,
she just look at me we here 'are you kidding me?' looks..
this type of people really tick me off, they don't care what happens to the place we live in, The Earth...because they'll be leaving if you know what i mean..
all they ever care about is their pay checks..
tsk tsk..
you should know, i'm quite a green guy...
hey...i don't mean that green!
eventhough i have a knack of forgeting to turn off stuff, fan, lights, water etc
but, nevertheless..
my heart is green...
green as a patch of moss on the side of a fish tank..

well...looks like it's up to us teenagers to save the Earth...
never waste, and always recycle.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

COVER

i remember telling you about doing a cover with boon..did i?
i can't remember,
well...
the problem is that we keep changing the song...
so, what are we doing now you ask?
Fall For You, Secondhand Serenade...
you know how much things change,
At first, i wanted to be a rapper...
then a rockstar...
now, i'm doing this...
i'm just experimenting on different genres...
well, there's one i always wanted to try, but it's hard for me...
chinese songs, but it's unjust for to consider them as a genre..sorry..
future maybe?

well..okay back to the cover...
why do they call it covers anyway?
so.. boon'll be on his guitar
And me.......i think i'm on piano..
yup my trusty but old piano...
we can't bring in our drummer yet, Adi
cuz no space, and we've never done anything like this before...
we still have one problem,
camera?
we have nothing to record well...except my crappy built in 1.3megapixel web cam...
BOon...
you got?

Jay Chou

hey...last night..Kok Ming sent me a Jay Chou song....
which is something new for me, cause i'm a english song typa guy...
but when i heard it...
it was so nice i almost cried!

haha..
wow..
i'm listening to it over and over again...
too bad i don't know the title,
i didn't know Jay Chou was this great...
uhh, did i offend anyone?

i can picture you guys having a "duh" expression right now.
thinking, "what the heck?! NOw only know!"

OLd BLog

HEy...i've noticed people refering to this as KJ's old blog...
time to set things straight, this is not my old blog..
it may be untouched and dusty(kinda), but c'mon,
old?!!!!

and..ohyeah....

it's time to turn up those speakers...


i would like for you guys to meet this band...i found it on MTV...

DEATHMETAL !!!!
LOL






hey,,not bad ok...
just get used to the screaming...that's all...

Monday, October 13, 2008

could my dad know about this blog...
hmm..i wonder...
i could have sworn that he was giving me hints...
uhuhu..
hey..guys...
and girls and whoever reading this..
my name is Chai Kean Jun
yup..CKJ...
i'm from SMK Sri Mutiara.....
i'm 16 years old and i live in Taman Midah..






















you think that'll throw him off?
Ahh..
just finished weeding .again.
wow...you know..
when i was studying in my room...
i taught.."it's so darn boring, i'd do anything other than this"

but after an hour downstairs in the garden,
it makes you think twice and appreciate how nice it is studying in your cosy room....
oh...
dark clowds are manifesting above me...
time to take in the clothes
sigh............
i've haven't been updating you for a while huh bloggy.
you see..
it's the time of all times..
so powerful it can make every teenager groan upon hearing it
yup
exams are coming!..*there should be some thunder and lightning in the background..

so..no more blogging for a while...
hey...you ever notice..
we learn and learn and study and study.
and for what?
exams...
that's why i've been thinking..
we spend almost a year at school.
so that we will know which blank we should blacken
and which essay should be written..

the point of your life when you become a teenager is when you ask yourself...
"why do i go to school for?"

it's not like we're gonna need the skills we learn when we grow up (KH and basic Math can be an exception)
but..please....never ever follow the path of a high school drop out......
...
well..loook at the time...
gotta go crack the books......
buh bye....

Friday, October 3, 2008

bloggy...guess what? i'm going to Awana at Genting....again
well..sigh...i wonder..why don't i feel excited....
My mom just told me this morning...we're leaving at lunch time and it's for a night's stay...
but when she told me...i was expressionless...with nothing to say and giving her that 'uhuh' face..
is something wrong with me....i must put this into my serious thinking list..
think think think...
so now i'm trying to bright side it..
Cold weather, gorgeous tourist alike, food..

Advertising...........of a desperate blogger

hey..just in case you missed it..it's www.whyareallthegoodblogurlstaken.blogspot.com

Rain rain rain (again)

it looks like i'll have to post with the same title....it's always raining these days...but i remember then when it was really hot...no rain at all for quite a while...during that time...everyone was thinking....why won't it rain.....rain please..oh rain already!...
oh yeah...we got what we wished for.....rain and rain till we become insane....
woohoo....but if you asked me...i'd prefer the raining season....cause?

1. my most ultimate never failing favourite part are all the cool nights when you tuck in to bed..and feel the cool sheets.....sigh....you can always count on that to make you sleep right away.....hey! i'm going upstairs right now.....










okay...back!

2. uh..i don't need to water the plants...( but my turtles aren't feeling as great as the plants...they're cold blooded so they need heat)

My female one.. i have two turtles...just recovered from a cold...strange huh..turtles catching colds...well....it all started when i noticed it or her eyes not opening....appetite disappeared..
till now she's not eating..i wonder why....i'm hoping that she'll get better soon...or else my dad will take (both of them) to the lake and throw them there...cruel!!!
well..at least the other one is eating...it really likes ikan bilis....at first i didn't know that turtles eat fish...
that explains that time when i mixed the turtles and fishes together...
day by day....one by one the fishes disappeared..i was flabbergasted
why the hell are my texts highlighted in yellow?!@??!?
stupid spell check....i hope this doesn't show when i post it.....
well..i'll try to ingore it....
well...i was looking for a reason for the disappearing fishes...that's when i looked at the turtles..
staring at me and then hiding..in their rock house...at that time...it was like..nah..that can't be right...
but now..i know....


3. i feel more alive and awake....

you know...i wish it would rain everyday...except on mondays and thursdays....that's when i have my PJ!....of course...


oh rain, why do you drop,
can't you just there up in the skies and the clouds,
instead, you bring us gloom,
and the ants..they get their doom,
but to the flowers, they say yay!
but still..too much can ruin their day,
see what you have done,
see what happens when there ain't no sun
you leave a bored poet with no much fun,
Typing his ass out on this blog,
his turtles, lying on a log,
Creating this poem for all to see,
then he thinks, hey what's on TV!

SO LONG I'M OFF TO THE TV...

lefties!



haha....lefties...the lonesome and never cared about minority in a world filled with right handers....as some of you guys know....
i'm a left hander....yup...always getting the smart but messy and clumsy crap....
here's all about a leftie in a nutshell...

well...lefties are probably the same with righties...but to everyone...right is right!
(did you know? 8 to 10% of the world's population are left handed...kinda shocking actually...
but hey..i always liked being strange)
In Chinese, left pronounced also sounds like improper...haha.....
i've searched it on wiki and found out the difference in the head of the two...
lets say there's a box of popcorn...
1000 pops and only one of them is blue..


.
a right hander would take one by one and analyze it...
A leftie would pour the popcorn on a surface and look for the blue one...
so to make a long story short....i righthander will finish a task before doing another
and a lefhander will do more stuff simultaneously....
it's a little like my square and circle prodigy...
well,,,here are some of the problems lefties face.....
for one...sciccors will be tough to use......so as knives..trust me...i have the same problem...
we'll never know how to play golf, hockey, etc..
some electronics are also meant for the right...
for example....the keyboard and mouse...i can never aim properly on Counter Strike
video games are also a problem...(their controllers)
we can never have a fair game of arm wrestling


hmm lets see...what else..
ahh..alot of things in life are made for rights..but..i'm coping...(tell me more right hander stuff)


oh..yeah....musical instruments are also for rights like guitar...but i play it the normal way...right handed style...( you know? there's a left handed piano..that's so darn kewl.... it's octave goes higher from right to left...but playing it would have been hard...)





so..the reason i'm clumsy and messy in life is because i'm a leftie...wow...
but i'm ain't complaining..
i like it the "i see things differently" thing......





here are some famous left handers
Barack Obama
Rafael Nadal
David Archuleta
Angelina Jolie
Paul McCartney

well so long rights and lefts...lets shake on it...
with both hands of course

Adat perkhawinan cina

hey..i'm putting this up on my blog so i can print it..i lost the original site so i'm using my blog as a medium...
Cikgu Amiruddin..... apa khabar?

if u guys want it..you can have it too....i got it from another dudes blog....


Pengenalan

Perkahwinan dalam masyarakat Cina merupakan satu titik tolak yang membawa perubahan besar dalam kehidupan mereka. Perkahwinan penting untuk mengekalkan institusi keluarga dan melaluinya keturunan nenek moyang dapat diteruskan daripada satu generasi kepada generasi yang lain. Dalam masyarakat Cina, sesuatu perkahwinan itu dirancang dan diatur sebaik-baiknya. Mengikut kepercayaan mereka juga, pasangan yang berkahwin tanpa mengikut aturan adat dianggap tidak sah. Terdapat dua bentuk perkahwinan yang diamalkan oleh mereka iaitu eksplisit iaitu perkahwinan yang diatur samada oleh ibu bapa atau orang tengah (moi-ngin) dan implisit iaitu perkahwinan di mana kedua-dua lelaki dan perempuan diberi kebebasan untuk memilih pasangan masing-masing. Pada asasnya adat resam perkahwiwan masyarakat Cina merangkumi peringkat merisik, meminang, bertunang dan majlis perkahwinan.

Merisik

Adat merisikdijalankan untuk mengetahui latar belakang gadis yang dihajati. Masyarakat Cina terlalu mengambil berat tentang nama , keturunan, peribadi, watak dan tingkah laku si gadis. Ciri-ciri ini penting untuk mewujudkan perkahwinan yang berkekalan. Cara merisik terpulang kepada ibu bapa kerana pada lazimnya ibu bapa pihak lelaki akan menanyakan kenalan dan rakan taulan yang kenal dengan keluarga si gadis. Sebahagian masyarakat Cina lebih gemar mengadakan perbincangan tersebut di restoran-restoran dengan disertai saudara mara lain. Tradisi makan bersama ini amat penting dalam masyarakat Cina kerana ia dapat mengeratkan perhubungan di antara kedua belah keluarga. Perbincangan ketika merisik adalah berkenaan perkara-perkara umum terutama tentang latar belakang keluarga dan asal keturunan.

Meminang

Setelah kedua-dua pihak berpuas hati dengan latar belakang keluarga masing-masing adat meminang akan dijalankan. Seorang wakil dipilih untuk berkunjung ke rumah si gadis bagi membincangkan perkara-perkara berkaitan perkahwinan. Ibu pengantin pengantin perempuan pula akan berbincang dengan wakil tersebut berkenaan jumlah mas kahwin, peruntukan meja dalam jamuan makan dan memilih hari yang paling sesuai. Pihak lelaki tidak akan tawar menawar kerana bimbang akan menjatuhkan maruah. Segala ketetapan yang telah dipersetujui, diberitahu kepada kedua ibu bapa pihak lelaki. Ibu bapa pihak lelaki akan berbincang dengan anaknya untuk menyediakan segala permintaan daripada pihak perempuan.. Setelah kedua-dua pihak sudah saling mengenal dan bersetuju untuk berkahwin, barulah adat bertunang dijalankan.

Bertunang

Hari pertunangan dilakukan berdasarkan kalendar Cina dan ia hendaklah bersesuaian dengan bintang kelahiran kedua pasangan tersebut. Khidmat tukang tilik digunakan untuk penetapan tarikh tersebut berpandukan kepada sebuah buku iaitu Toong-Su. Ini penting kerana jika dilakukan pada waktu yang tidak sesuai dipercayai akan ditimpa bencana dan perkahwinan akan menghalami kegagalan. Pada masa inilah bakal pengantin lelaki berkunjung ke rumah perempuan untuk menunaikan permintaan. Upacara bertukar cincin dilakukan mengikut masa yang ditetapkan . cincin disarung di jari manis kiri oleh kedua-dua bakal pengantin sehingga hari perkahwinan. Bagi membukitkan persetujuan, gadis berkenaan akan menyerahkan sekeping kertas merah atau nyen-sang yang tertulis nama gadis, umur dan tarikh lahirnya yang didapati daripada tukang tilik. Setelah nyen-sang diterima, pihak lelaki akan mengadakan persediaan. Nyen-sang kepunyaan si gadis pula akan diberi kepada tukang tilik bersama-sama maklumat yang sama tentang dirinya. Tukang tilik akan menghitung hari dan masa yang sesuai berdasarkan kedua-dua nyen-sang dan dicatat pada sehelai kertas merah yang dinamakan nyik-kor. Ketika menentukan hari yang sesuai, tukang tilik membuat ramalan berdasarkan tahun kelahiran kedua pasangan. Setelah mendapat tarikh dan masa yang sesuai, tukang tilik akan menyediakan dua keping nyik-kor dan diberikan kepada lelaki dan perempuan yang hendak berkahwin. Nyik-kor tersebut mengandungi peraturan-peraturan dan adat-adat yang perlu diikuti oleh kedua bakal pengantin merangkumi adat-adat tertentu.

Hantaran dan mas kahwin lazimnya diberi semasa upacara bertukar cincin perkahwinan atau pada hari lain seperti hari istiadat perkahwinan yang diadakan di Pejabat Pendaftaran Perkahwinan. Di antara hantarannya ialah sebentuk cincin emas, sepersalinan pakaian, kain dan wang tunai. Sekiranya pihak lelaki tidak menyediakan barang hantaran yang cukup kepada pengantin perempuan, sejumlah besar wang tunai akan diberi. Beserta dengan penghantaran mas kahwin, keluarga pengantin perempuan diberitahu tarikh perkahwinan dan rundingan akan dibuat dengan pengantin perempuan. Dalam masyarkat Cina, semakin besar mas kahwin yang diberikan, semakin tinggi martabat dan kedudukan pihak lelaki.

Majlis Perkahwinan

Hari perkahwinan akan dilangsungkan setelah setahun bertunang atau mengikut tempoh yang dipersetujui oleh kedua belah pihak. Sebelum tiba hari perkahwinan sekiranya terdapat kematian di kalangan ahli keluarga bakal pengantin, perkahwinan itu mesti ditangguhkan pada tahun hadapan ataupun selama seratus hari. Adalah tidak manis mengadakan perkahwinan sewaktu orang lain sedang berkabung kesedihan. Pada hari perkahwinan tersebut pengantin perempuan dan lelaki dihias indah. Masyarakat Cina pada masa dahulu memakai pakaian pengantin yang diperbuat daripada kain sutera dan disulam benang emas. Kemudian setiap pakaian dihias dengan pelbagai aksesori. Baju pengantin sebaik-baiknya bewarna putih, merah atau kuning. Adalah dilarang memakai baju hitam, biru dan kelabu kerana dipercayai warna-warna tersebut melambangkan kematian dan kesedihan.

Perkahwinan

Masyarakat Cina

Seterusnya pengantin lelaki akan bertandang ke rumah pengantin perempuan dan pada masa itulah pengantin lelaki dan perempuan akan duduk bersama buat kali pertama. Mereka akan diiringi oleh pengiring masing-masing. Seterusnya pasangan pengantin akan didudukkan di atas pelamin yang telah disediakan di ruang tamu. Selepas acara bersanding, pasangan pengantin akan dibawa bertemu ahli keluarga masing-masing. Pengantin lelaki akan memperkenalkan keluarga dan sauadara maranya kepada isterinya dan ini begitulah sebaliknya di samping itu juga kedua pengantin akan meminta restu daripada keluarga mertua masing-masing. Dalam masyarakat Cina juga, upacara meminum teh sangat penting dan masih diamalkan. Ia merupakan tradisi masyarakat Cina yang mempunyai maksud yang tersendiri. Adat ini melambangkan penerimaan pasangan pengantin terutamanya si isteri dalam keluarga si suami di samping bertujuan untuk mengeratkan hubungan kekeluargaan. Dalam upacara ini pasangan pengantin akan memberi teh yang disediakan kepada saudara mara pihak lelaki. Walau bagaimanapun adat bersanding dan upacara minum teh ini sudah kurang diamalkan oleh masyarakat Cina hari ini.

Kemuncak upacara perkahwinan masyarakat Cina ialah pada sebelah malam iaitu jamuan makan. Jamuan makan ini diadakan secara besar-besaran samada di rumah, dewan, atau restoran. Tetamu-tetamu yang datang akan membawa ang-pau sebagai hadiah kepada pasangan pengantin.

Pada masa yang sama kedua pengantin akan cuba mengenali dan beramah mesra dengan ahli keluarga kedua belah pihak. Akhir sekali, sebagai bukti perkahwinan, pasangan pengantin akan menandatangani dua pucuk surat perkahwinan iaitu Keat Foon Ching Su di hadapan beberapa orang saksi.Pada hari ini masyarakat Cina kurang mengamalkan adat perkahwinan secara tradisi sebaliknya menjalankan perkahwinan secara sivil iaitu dengan mendaftarkan perkahwinan di gereja, terutamanya di kalangan mereka yang beragama Kristian.

CHEONG SAM

Pakaian ini dipakai oleh wanita berketurunan Cina. Biasanya dipakai pada upacara-upacara tertentu seperti majlis perkahwinan dan semasa Tahun Baru Cina. Tetapi kini, pakaian ini jarang dipakai oleh wanita Cina di Malaysia kerana mereka lebih gemar memakai pakaian fesyen negara barat. Cheongsam dikatakan berasal dari baju tradisional lelaki Cina yang labuh sampai ke kaki. Perkataan 'cheong sam' dalam dialek kantonis bermaksud 'baju labuh'. Cheongsam dipercayai mula diperkenalkan semenjak revolusi di Negera China pada tahun 1911.Baju ini asalnya labuh tetapi lama-kelamaan disingkatkan hingga ke paras lutut. Pada mulanya, kolar baju antara 3 hingga 4 cm sahaja tetapi kemudiannya ditinggikan sehingga menjadi 7 cm. Cheongsam dipakai ketat dan berbelah di kiri dan kanannya.

SAMFOO

Samfoo membawa maksud 'baju dan seluar' dalam dialek Kantonis. Ia merupakan pakaian harian wanita keturunan Cina selain dari 'cheong sam'. Ia digemari oleh wanita-wanita separuh umur dan yang bekerja di ladang, lombong atau di rumah. Samfoo diperbuat daripada kain nipis yang tidak bercorak atau berbunga halus.

Samfoo turut dipakai oleh lelaki berketurunan Cina tetapi mempunyai sedikit perbezaan dengan samfoo yang dipakai oleh wanita Cina. Pakaian ini terdiri daripada baju yang longgar dan terbelah di depan dan berkolar tinggi serta dipakai bersama seluar longgar seperti seluar baju Melayu. Pakaian ini biasanya diperbuat daripada kain lembut seperti kain sutera. Pakaian tradisional ini jarang sekali dipakai oleh lelaki berketurunan Cina di Malaysia.

Perkahwinan Masyarakat Cina Bhg.1
ADAT SEBELUM PERKAHWINAN

Mengikut kebudayaan Cina, perkahwinan merupakan penyatuan antara dua buah keluarga. Setelah bakal pengantin lelaki dan perempuan mengambil keputusan untuk melangsungkan perkahwinan, kedua-dua keluarga akan menyertainya.

Pada hari pertunangan, keluarga pihak lelaki akan memberikan "Hadiah Besar" kepada pihak keluarga perempuan. Ini adalah upacara formal bagi kedua-dua keluarga untuk mengiktiraf secara rasmi dan memberikan tanda persetujuan mereka terhadap perkahwinan yang bakal berlangsung.

"Hadiah Besar" yang diberikan ketika lamaran ini kebiasannya merupakan duit penanda yang dibalut dengan sampul bewarna merah dan beberapa barangan lain termasuk teh, "kek menambah kebahagiaan", sepasang binatang ternakan, manisan dan gula, arak serta tembakau. Duit penanda yang diberikan kebiasaannya berjumlah $99 atau $999 kerana nombor sembilan pada masyarakat Cina memberi erti berpanjangan. Teh merupakan hadiah yang paling penting kerana kedua-dua keluarga mendoakan pasangan terbabit mendapat keturunan yang ramai sebagaimana daun teh yang diberikan. Keseluruhan hadiah yang diberikan mestilah mempunyai nilai yang sama.

Keluarga pengantin perempuan akan mengagihkan "kek menambah kebahagiaan" kepada saudara-mara dan kawan-kawan mereka sebagai satu bentuk pengumuman. Namun, pada hari ini kedua-dua keluarga akan mengagihkan kek terbabit bersama-sama jemputan perkahwinan. Setelah itu, kedua-dua keluarga akan menumpukan kepada majlis perkahwinan yang bakal berlangsung.

Beberapa hari sebelum hari perkahwinan, keluarga pengantin perempuan akan menghantar hantaran kepada keluarga pengantin lelaki atau rumah baru pasangan terbabit. Hantaran mestilah berbentuk keperluan harian untuk rumah baru pengantin seperti peralatan tempat tidur, kain linen dan set meja makan dan sebagainya. Ini merupakan peluang kepada keluarga pengantin perempuan untuk menunjukkan kasih sayang dan kekayaan mereka kepada anak mereka.

Keluarga pengantin lelaki akan menjemput saudara-mara terdekat atau kawan untuk ke set katil pengantin di rumah baru tersebut. Di sebahagian tempat di China pada masa dahulu, budak lelaki yang belum berkahwin akan dijemput untuk tidur di atas katil pengantin pada malam sebelum hari perkahwinan bagi membawa kesuburan kepada pasangan yang baru berkahwin.

KELENGKAPAN PERKAHWINAN

Baju Pengantin - Kebiasaannya warna merah dipilih bagi menggambarkan nasib yang baik. Mengikut kepercayaan masyarakat Cina, warna yang terang boleh menghalau roh-roh jahat daripada mendekati mereka. Pakaian tradisional pengantin di Utara China kebiasaannya berbentuk jubah yang dikenali Qi Pao. Pakaian ini akan disulam dengan benang emas dan perak. Pakaian pengantin perempuan di Selatan China pula memakai pakaian dua bahagian yang dikenali Qun Gua, Kwa atau Cheongsam yang juga disulam dengan jahitan berbentuk naga dan burung Pheonix. Pada masa dahulu, tudung bewarna merah akan dipakai oleh pengantin perempuan untuk menutupi mukanya sepanjang majlis perkahwinan berlangsung. Pengantin baru ini hanya akan melihat satu sama lain untuk kali pertama pada malam perkahwinan tersebut.

Lilin Naga dan Pheonix - Lilin bewarna merah yang diukir menyerupai naga dan burung Phoenix digunakan pada hari perkahwinan adalah untuk melambangkan penyatuan terhadap keluarga baru. Menurut kepercayaan masyarakat Cina, lilin ini akan digunakan pada malam perkahwinan bagi menghalau roh-roh jahat dengan cahayanya. Cahaya lilin ini turut menambahkan suasana romantik bagi pasangan pengantin berkenaan.

Tandatangan Kain - Kain ini akan dibentangkan di atas meja di pintu masuk, di mana tetamu akan menandatangan nama mereka dan menulis restu mereka. Kain yang disulam ini akan disimpan oleh pasangan pengantin sebagai kenangan seperti juga bunga dan baju pengantin.

Tanda Kebahagiaan dan Sampul Merah - Tanda Kebahagian merupakan hiasan paling penting dalam majlis perkahwinan masyarakat Cina. Kebanyakannya diukir pada serpihan logam atau kertas dan kemudiannya akan ditampal pada pintu masuk rumah kedua-dua keluarga dan juga dibahagian meja jemputan. Potongan kecil tanda kebahagian ini turut dilekatkan pada kenderaan pengantin. Sampul merah akan digunakan pada setiap perayaan masyarakat Cina seperti majlis perkahwinan, Tahun Baru Cina dan sebagainya.

PANTANG LARANG PERKAHWINAN

Pada pertemuan semasa pertunangan, keluarga pengantin lelaki akan mempersembahkan seekor angsa hidup kepada keluarga pengantin perempuan. Walau bagaimanapun, keluarga pengantin perempuan tidak boleh membunuh angsa tersebut kerana ia mewakili pengantin perempuan berkenaan. Jika angsa tersebut tidak mengeluarkan bunyi bising ketika diserahkan kepada keluarga pengantin perempuan, ia menunjukkan bahawa pengantin lelaki mempunyai personaliti yang baik dan menarik. Jika sebaliknya, ia menunjukkan pengantin berkenaan mudah marah. Keluarga perempuan akan membiarkan angsa tersebut di kawasan tasik atau kolam di mana ia akan membesar dengan sendirinya.

Ketika pengantin lelaki datang untuk menjemput pengantin perempuan, kawan-kawan pengantin perempuan akan cuba menghalang pihak lelaki daripada memasuki bilik pengantin pada pagi hari perkahwinan tersebut. Ia merupakan satu permainan dikenali sebagai "Permainan Pintu Perkahwinan". Walau bagaimanapun pihak pengantin perempuan perlu memperuntukkan masa tertentu kerana upacara di rumah pengantin lelaki harus berjalan seperti yang telah dijadualkan.

Apabila pengantin perempuan meninggalkan rumahnya dan menuju ke kenderaan pihak lelaki, dia harus memakai kasut yang biasa dipakainya kerana ia menggambarkan bahawa pengantin perempuan berkenaan tidak membawa sesuatu bersamanya walaupun nasib baik ibu bapanya.Apabila pengantin perempuan memasuki rumah pengantin lelaki, mentua dan kakak iparnya tidak seharusnya mengadap pintu memerhatikan pengantin perempuan masuk. Ini menurut kepercayaan masyarakat Cina bagi menghalang sebarang pertelingkahan pada masa akan datang. Selain itu, wanita yang mengandung dan orang yang baru kematian saudara-mara tidak boleh terlibat dengan majlis perkahwinan atau menyentuh pakaian pasangan pengantin dan sebagainya di rumah baru pasangan tersebut. Ini untuk mengelakkan sebarang perkara buruk daripada berlaku.

Adat Perkahwinan Masyarakat Cina Bhg.2

Pada pagi hari perkahwinan, upacara menghias rambut akan dijalankan ke atas pengantin perempuan. Wanita yang dianggap mempunyai nasib yang baik akan datang untuk menolong menghias rambut pengantin perempuan bersama-sama wanita yang masih mempunyai ibubapa, suami isteri dan anak-anak mereka. Wanita-wanita ini akan mengucapkan kata-kata yang baik ketika mengikat sanggul pengantin perempuan dalam cara wanita yang sudah berumah tangga.

Upacara menutup pengantin lelaki

Upacara menutup pengantin lelaki akan dilakukan di rumah keluarga pengantin lelaki di mana bapa pengantin akan meletakkan topi yang dihias dengan daun pokok saru di atas kepala pengantin lelaki. Pengantin lelaki tersebut akan membawa tandu yang mana kebanyakan masyarakat Cina hari ini lebih cenderung untuk memilih kereta mewah bersama sekumpulan saudara-mara dan kawan untuk menjemput pengantin perempuan.

Permainan Pintu

Permainan Pintu berasal daripada zaman nenek moyang masyarakat Cina yang menggambarkan bahawa pengantin perempuan merupakan wanita yang cantik dan keluarga serta kawan-kawannya tidak sanggup berpisah dengannya. Pengantin lelaki akan dihalang oleh pintu rumah pengantin perempuan dan kawan pengantin perempuan ini akan berusaha menghalang pengantin lelaki daripada memasuki rumah dengan mengajukan beberapa soalan berkenaan pengantin perempuan. Ini bertujuan untuk menduga sejauh mana pengantin lelaki menyayangi pengantin perempuan tersebut. Manakala pihak lelaki akan cuba membayar pihak perempuan dengan memberikan Li Shi iaitu duit tanda yang dibalut dengan sampul bewarna merah untuk mempertemukan pasangan terbabit.

Upacara Minum Teh

Pengapit perempuan akan membawa payung merah untuk melindungi pengantin perempuan ke tandu pengantin lelaki. Saudara-mara pengantin akan melontar beras, kacang merah dan kacang hijau ke arahnya. Payung merah tersebut akan melindunginya daripada roh jahat, manakala beras dan kacang akan menarik perhatian ayam emas yang membawa tuah. Setelah pengantin perempuan tiba di rumah pengantin lelaki, bunga api dan muzik dengan bunyi gong dan drum akan dimainkan untuk menyambut ketibaannya. Pengantin perempuan akan melangkah di atas besen besi yang mempunyai colok yang menyala. Ia merupakan upacara untuk membawa kebahagiaan dan menjauhkan roh-roh jahat. Ketika di rumah pihak lelaki, pasangan pengantin tersebut akan melutut sebanyak tiga kali kepada syurga dan bumi, nenek moyang dan ibubapa mereka. Pasangan terbabit akan tunduk antara satu sama lain dan selepas itu, pengantin perempuan akan memberikan minuman teh kepada keluarga dan saudara-mara mengikut pangkat. Kebiasaanya, mereka yang menerima minuman teh akan memberikan hadiah berbentuk barang kemas atau Li Shi kepada pengantin perempuan.


Makanan Perkahwinan dan kek

Beberapa jenis makanan akan dihidangkan di majlis perkahwinan masyarakat Cina yang membawa maksud yang tertentu seperti ikan yang melambangkan kekayaan, anak babi panggang yang melambangkan kesucian, ayam yang dimasak dengan minyak merah melambangkan kebahagiaan, udang galah bererti keserasian dan juga pau. Manakala "kek kebahagiaan" yang juga dikenali sebagai kek naga dan burung phoenix akan diberikan oleh pihak lelaki kepada pihak perempuan untuk dipersembahkan beberapa bahagian daripada kek tersebut untuk tujuan memuja nenek moyang dan diagihkan kepada saudara dan rakan-rakan.

Pada malam perkahwinan, pasangan pengantin berkenaan akan meminum arak daripada dua cawan yang diikat bersama oleh tali bewarna merah dan menyilangkan tangan sesama mereka. Mengikut kebudayaan masyarakat Cina, perbuatan ini merupakan ikatan janji perkahwinan yang biasa dilakukan ketika perkahwinan. Kemudian, pengantin perempuan akan diberikan ladu separuh masak dan akan ditanya sama ada ia ladu tersebut mentah. Pengantin perempuan haruslah menjawab "mentah" melambangkan dia akan melahirkan anak dan menunjukkan keluarga yang bahagia.

Sehari selepas hari perkahwinan, pengantin perempuan seharusnya bangun lebih awal dan menyediakan makanan untuk keluarga pengantin lelaki. Ini akan menggambarkan pengantin berkenaan diasuh dengan baik dan layak untuk menjadi isteri kepada pengantin lelaki.Tiga hari selepas hari perkahwinan, pengantin perempuan akan pulang melawat keluarganya bersama-sama suaminya. Pengantin lelaki akan mempersembahkan anak babi panggang kepada keluarga pengantin perempuan simbolik kepada kesucian, menggambarkan kesucian pengantin perempuan. Keluarga pengantin perempuan akan mengagihkan makanan berkenaan kepada saudara-mara dan jiran-jirannya.

you all know what is it...eh...probably not...but lemme tell you...
Chat boxes!...
you know those chatty things people put on their blogs...yeah...those .!

well...yeah...sure..the 1st few days....you'll get....supportive messages and civilised chatting...like
hello! or Yo!.....but that's when it all goes downhill....don't know what i mean?

well...anonymous chatting sure gets us all on the nerve...but now there's faking your name...
yup...this guy pretending to be that guy...and vice versa....
other than that....crap talking...
homosexuality.......
asking for/giving services(you know what i mean)
and more...

So....to any new comersof blogging...never, ever, put it on your blogs...

ohya....here's the url for my blog....once again lemme tell you....i just want to put my memoirs ithe blog...and read them back when i'm older or so....
heck...i might even publish it and make $$$$...
one might never know you know?
http://whyareallthegoodblogurlstaken.blogspot.com/

mah 1st post on my second blog...

woohoo..it's so darn good to start out fresh again...oh..wait i should probably start with dear diary huh?...
nah...i'll call this blog...bloggy!...
ok..so..

dear newly born bloggy,

ok..so how does it feel to be my second blog...ooh...and no sarcasm...any crap like that and i'm deleting you! But i can tell what you're wondering. Why am i calling you diary when it can be accessed by every soul on Earth with an internet connection. My wish la! If i wrote all this on a book...you'd probably have doggy ears on every page... and chocolate sauce on you...
so be thankful for being a n electronic one and not those others with bad spelling and grammar...
wait, i think you should thank spellcheck for that....hey..lemme misspell for fun..
ohkae..if yu ar wandarin wats i'm dooing nau...(ok ok enough)
i'm sitting at my dining table staring at a laptop screen and not doing my tuition homework which is due tonight...my grandma...is in the livin watching her never ending hokkien dramas..
it's 10am and i'm waiting for my food to come and after that i'm off to school...and after that, i'm won't be touching you for quite sometime...you know..your freakingly lucky cause my connection is wacko...i can't sign in to MSN...i have to keep refreshing sites to view them...leaving to only two things...homework and blog....hmmm whichever shall i choose..nah..as soon as i'm done with you...i'll try to finish my work....

ohya....today is PJ day..and you know what that means...several hours of doing the sunshine dance whilst singing any song related to sun...
it's pretty simple actually....all you need is to jump around stare out at the sky and say sunny day as many times and as loud as possible...it works i tell you..i swear!..well bloggy..
wish Amanah luck cause were fighting the Bs as usual.. but this time round there won't be any malays to lawan with so scales are heavier on my A's side...
but i've learned from countless of times...never underestimate your opponent...i don't even know what we'll be playing......my sister told me that for PJ...her teacher gave them boardgames!...aughhhhhhh......
oww...shit!....
the food's here....gtg...

two blogs?

I've been having to make the decision of transferring to wordpress or not....man..talk about conflict. Well, over days and days of comparing and checking out QnAs...i've decided to stay....
you see.....i've made discoveries about the two sites....
blogspot's more user friendly....it's for the newbies, (like me) who have no idea how to blog....
wordpress on the other hand or may i say other leg...is more for hardcore bloggers.......
So, wordpress....i may have rejected you for my dear ol blogspot...but don't fret... i'll change when i feel that i have, whacha call it? be more pro!..haha...that's what people sat round here....
oh yeah.....i've also had a couple more or so ideas for my dusty and grime filled blog with cockroaches the size of rats and rats the size of cockroaches..hey...i know...whenever i (finally post) you'll go check to see if the moon's blue....

i'm making another blog...yes!...that's right..another sad sad and tak berdosa blog will go under my responsibility......
let me tell what i'm gonna fill it with....
i'm gonna...pls..no drumrolls....but you can roll drums if you want..
i'm gonna make an e-diary or something like that......(i apologise for any injuries caused by falling off the chair after reading this)

yes...i'm making a dairy...i'd call it a journal..lebih masculine...so..imagening me..Mr sensitive typing "dear diary"
today i blah blah blah blah.....
you see....i don't like posting my life's happenings on this blog.....it;s just not right....
so i'll have two blogs now...one's for writing my days and another's for writing whatever coming out of my ever mysterious head of mine......

i was weedin again as usual....but as i was doing so....it made me think of something...yes yes...i thought!......
here's an analogy by me about life....mind the illustrations ok....
so..... May i present to you....the weed analogy!!!!





OK....so...lets look at life's problems as a weed...




From above ground.....we only can see it's shoots and leaves...
but underground....ahhh..yes...the unseen part....yup that's right.....the roots...or may we call it the root of the problem...

For many people...they tend to only solve what they can see.......



it's like cutting a weed with a pair of sheers or just stomping it to the ground....it's simple and fast
it even shows great results!
Ahha!!!!but the root....yup....the culprit!!...we left it out...
it's because we only analise the top part of it.......without searching any deeper to make sure that the problem's really solved.....
so, to us, is a job well done....but as we all know....problems unfully solved will just come back over and over again no matter how many times we try to solve it...
Sooooo.....what's the lesson?...
always solve problems patiently....never rush it....and make sure to find the root of the problem!..
Hope you liked it!!!

the 1st weekday of the holidays is a upon us...and i'm already feeling the boredom....
so..hmm.....what to do? what to do....i know, i'll go finish my homework..and then i'l do my folio..that's right..

note to everyone,

yellow = sarcasm

So don't go crazy when i say Miss Khoo is so hot!!!!


well...recently...i mind's left a blank....hmm...must been all of that studying i did.....
well...u gotta let me don't think for a while...cuz that's what holidays are for right?
to let your brain rest....so while i'm in this temporary brain dead stage.... i'll post some questions to keep yall entertained

Friday, July 25, 2008

ok....my continuation of my previous post....where was i...
oh yeah!...boonz party...
Chow's parents sent us there.....it was preeetty akward trying to stuff five teenagers at the back of the car.....we planned to put Kok Ming in the boot with my guitar....but we soon found out that there were no air holes....too bad....on the way..we saw SBU...wow...i didn't realise that it was so darn big....it made SMK Cheras look like chicken poop....well...
we reached boon's place a while later....
that's when we met the party pooper...if i already knew who he was during that time...i'd kicked him so hard that his grandson got hurt...don't worry....kidding....violence don't lead to anything good...who's this party pooper....
well...he's one of boons condo guards....but i'd prefer to refer him as Stoopit Guard...
during the party...we would go..." aiyo..that Stoopit Guard"...."darn it man that Stoopit Guard..."
and so on......
He's just so darn square....oh..yeah...some of you might wonder what i mean by square...
well....my friends and i have this term for people.....Square and Circles...
a Square if you must know...is a person who does everything by tha book....boring......you hear people always saying " think outside the box"....well... Squares are the box...if teacher says to do it this way....they'll do it exactly that way....remind you of anyone? But Squares sometimes do not do it as they're told...but usually what they do just makes it more squarer..get what i mean

A circle on the other hand....is the complete opposite of a Square....Circles never follow the rules... they do once in while but they bend it...they're ain't so famous around teachers and such...but they do get praises once in a while for thinking outside the box......
I ain't saying being a square or circle is good or bad...but if you ask me....try being oblong..that's right....a hybrid....bending the rules but not so much that you change it completely...

whoa....back to the Party.....
well....if you've been there..or read boon's blog...you would know how much of a pain in the ass the guard is...but hey...don't take it out on him...he's just doing his job...
lets see...1st..he chased most of us out of the pool for not having the proper clothing....then..no kicking soda cans near the empty pool...then..no playing football at the empty lot....
well...i could say most of the people invited thought it was boring.....but not me...
Every cloud has a silver lining...during the party...i met my old friends....Kong Wei Luek...
Yap Kai Hoong....Eddie......so it wasn't all bad..but...i wondered...where were the girls?.....i took off my shirt for nothing.....oh yeah..and my doggy paddle lost to brandon's freestyle...impossible!

whoa...i've never blogged so much on a single post....i'll continue next time

Friday, July 18, 2008

ah...finally...a new post.....as...some of you guys might know....some stuff happened during the long-period-of-me-not-posting...well...like it or not...i'm gonna post about it....
ok...first thing!...
merentas desa...

well..because of that day....i'm never gonna touch biscuits again....
why?
before the race started...i was busily munching on a pack o' biscuits....
well...i forgot about the 'never run right after eating' rule...
my brain doesn't work quite well in the mornings...
At the start of the race....it was smooth sailing....but after a while....the biscuits started kicking in....
And man...did it hurt or what!..(teeth teeth long)
the whole race..i was running 'old man style' with hands clutching my side...
As more people ran past me..i was like..."why!..oh Why!!"
well..at the end i got 26th place...
ok lar..not bad...but the shameful part was that...this year's under 15 group winners were mostly form 1!....a real WTF moment...
After the race....the reaction of Kok Ming resembled a break-up-with-gf-expression....
well....there's always next year...
But eventhough we had a bad day....we couldn't feel bad....cause we knew what was installed next.............
BOOnz party....
to make sure i don't bore you.....i will continue some other time..

Thursday, July 10, 2008

whoa...been real busy this past few days...
and i gotta tell ya...
being a procrastinator ain't much of a help...
oh...what's a procrastinator?
well....it's very simple actually.....
it's a person who does things last minute...always leaving things to be done later...
you know, i was shocked when i found out that there was a term for this kind of people...
finally, a place to belong!
well...i'll show what i mean...

kriing, the school bell rings...last schoolday for the week...
so..come home with homework...thinking of finishing homework today....toss bag onto bedroom floor...
will be left there until tomorrow...

Monday, June 16, 2008

hey...about the friend changing school thing...well, someone, lied to me.... ok...time to set things straight, boon's not changing...hooray..
but in fact there's another guy who's going to SBU...yup..Jay Shen..and today's his last day..i remember when we were in form 1...i made up a rap....i don't remember much..but i'll try...ok..here it goes..( i added some extra bits inside)

Come on everybody, come on over here,
I want to introduce to you someone that you'll fear,
He's Jay Shen i say,
And he is not gay,
He just kinda like girls and kinda like guys,
But please o please don't ask me why,
You see, he sexuality is undetermined,
But hey, don't worry, he still is human,

His bfs and gfs are all unstable,
Always changing, numbers unbelievable,
One day he'll tell me "check out this girl",
"She's mine",
The next day, "wow! look at her",
"I'll give her nine.

Here's an intro for all the tots and little kids,
He's kinda tall and covered with zits,
Basketball's his passion,
He's an enemy to fashion,
He's a football fan,
He thinks Chelsea can,
That means he wears blue bras,
And hates Van Der Sar,
He even goes to cafes, What?!
I mean cyber cafes,
Where he plays CS or dota,
Or anything you gotta,
So, he's the one,
the ultimate sensation,
Who else, Duh,
it's Jay Shen



hope you guys liked it
OH yeah...there's this catchy song i heard on the radio once..i don't know how long ago it came out but nah!



Thursday, June 12, 2008

speaking of swearing, i had bet with my friend recently...i must not swear or show anything related to swearing until 6.45 today..think i can make it? and don't worry..no money involved..just pride and bragging rights..sounds very kiasu right? well..don't look at me...look at Kok Ming...and uh, Kok Ming, i'm not calling you a kiasu on the Internet..no offense..

More news...another person from SMKC is about to migrate to SBS..Boon Boon is his name, i'm not gonna stop you from going..it's your decision and i respect it....just make sure you won't turn out to be an....uh.....uh..( no swearing)..ah..awful fellar like Kai Hoong....
but please remember our promise...when we grow up...and your a famous guitarist or have a famous band and i'm a famous rapper or something else...we must consider teaming up... just imagine...you representing K.J.M. Productions ...u guys should be able to guess what KJM is.....

Wow....you don't get much bloggers from SMK Cheras...but...surprisingly...a couple more have popped up...but alas...i'm still the only one from Amanah..sadly...

Oh ya!..i saw Borat again....really funny and disgusting...there was one time...Borat was with this guy talking about how to make jokes...there was one part that was real funny...So the guy said

"Lets talk about jokes about mother-in-laws"

Borat, " there was one time...i slept with my mother-in-law"

the guy replies, " i don't think that the American comunity would find that joke funny"

Borat again, " that wasn't a joke"
