Experience-Good?Bad?Neither?

How does an experience leaves you with?Worst off?Better off?Stronger?Weaker?Dumb-founded?Wiser?

How do you equate an experience whether it is good or bad?Of the condition at that point of time?Or the latter?

We all have weird experiences,funny experiences,angry experiences,and mixed emotions experiences. But would you call it bad or good? Would you say the bad one's are due to your karma and bad luck?or would you say the good one is,well you dont say anything really when its good.

I met with an accident today.When I was turning into my housing area,I put my signal 3 seconds before turning and this motorbike who had seated a man and his wife just drove at the side of my left without paying any attention. So when I turned, he banged me on my left part of the car and fell down with his wife. He had a bad bad scratch and so did his wife. Her skirt had droplets of blood all over. She knew he was wrong, because she was wimpering at him and telling him in hokkien he was wrong. He of course,being the man said it was my fault. I was talking to him in a very rought tone saying it as his fault. Thank god that area had alot of indians. They came to my rescue and said it was neither's fault. They were about 50+ years old. Yeah,old. I discussed with him,told him I'd pay for the medical bills. He's motorbike left hand side mirror broke and his handle crakced a little. That was all. I decided I could be an adult for once and settle this properly without my parents involved. I told him I'd pay 50 buxs for his motor and we'd be done. But no,he said its more expensive then that and that if not lets go to the police. I was very tempted but I was only a 'P' driver and I am due in three weeks time to get my real licence. I wouldnt want to jeapordise it.

So brought him to some unknown chinese clinic and they got wiped and tetanus shots and I paid RM50 each. Thats RM100. Then I brought him to a place in Chai Leng Park to get it repaired but it was closed. Then when to BM. This time I had to call my dad. So my dad came and the man trembled. So does every other man when they see dad. Ahh,the luxury. And my dad told me to bring him to a mechanic near my place and it was all'kautimed'.

I think I was the most nicest victim. I am the victim mind you. My car just got few scratch marks. No biggie. But of course I do pity the couple. He told me he wanted to do further check ups. FUCK YOU. I told him "No.Our agreement was I paid this medical bill and fix ur bike. Other then that not my problem" and he shut his mouth. I know at the way you all see how I write this, it may look like I am the bad guy because why then would I be obliged enough to bring him to a clinic and fix his bike.

Thing is,I brought him to the clinic because of civic conciousness. I drove him and his wife there. I mean, if I was to be in his side I would hope that someone would be kind enough to send me there too.The bike fixing story was because I am not going to pay,will get dad to do it and also that its better that way then he going to the police because then my licence might be pulled. Oh yes,its RM80 to fix the whole thing.Expensive lar.

So dad for now has not said anything. I told him not to tell mom. But knowing my dad,he would. God knows how I am going to look at mom in the eyes. She's going to give me a good mouth lashing. Of course,I do hope dad takes me as an adult enough not to tell mom. But parents are parents and never your friends.Mom was giving me a whole speech last night and today morning about how I drive and blah blah. Isnt it ironic this happened today morning?

So how do I quantify this experience? It will make me face accidents better next time I suppose,but of course it all depends on circumstances and definielty I am not hinting of getting into it anymore.I will be more cautious on the road?I am braver to talk to adults?I dont know. I am afraid of Mom really. The adrenalin is really all about mom. I know you may be thinking, boy what a wimp. But you have no idea how my mom is. So where do I stand?I lost RM180, there goes my new nike sport shoes. I guess itseither NB or RBK now.

I am still stunned by the whole thing in the morning. Its lie a huge wake up call. I really need to be more cautious on the road. What happens if next I will be in thier position and I dont get through it? Boy, now there's a thought.

Experience?

FOR YOUR ENTERTAINMENT-Adam Lambert


23 Nov 2009 would now be officially ADAM LAMBERT day. Its not AMA 2009.

Reason because he did such a controversy in his performance for his song "For Your Entertinment". He dragged a lady by her ankle and had a mans face rub his crotch and the finale- HE KISSED A GUY.

I just watched his performance on CNN.I couldnt find any on You Tube. I was shocked by what he did, but I didnt feel any hatred towards him. I think what he did was alright. I read the whole statements about him. People were saying he shouldnt have done it,some were saying its ok. I think its either a love it or hate it show.

Adam Lambert is a performer. He has to make shows thats makes you go "WOW!". Thats a performer. When Lady Gaga wears like a see through skin coloured top and dance, its ok. When she plays the piano with fire around her and breaking beer bottles on it, thats ok. Lady Gaga kisses girls in most of her videos,thats ok. When Rihanna performed with guns pointed at her, that was ok too. And if anyone can remember,allow me, remember years ago at the VMA's? Madonna,Britney and Chrisitina had a threesome kissing on the stage. That created quite a stir but it got calmed after awhile. Then you had the Janet blooper. Next,Katy Perry came out with a song titled "I kissed a Girl" which also made such a haloo-baloo. But everyone just thought it was all A-OK.

I hate it when people practice double standards on this kind of issues. Why be so insensitive and so unfair to him? Just because his GAY and he showed it? People said " How can he do that?There are children watching". I loved his answer. "I'm a performer not a baby sitter". True, you have a choice to switch off the channel or tuning it into another. So why complaint? That guy is definitely the next big thing to watch for. After so long, I think a male has just won back the title for being the next big thing. I think he's future just got brighter.

GO GLAMBERT!!!

Pisau Cukur-"Gold Digger"

I got a blog topic yang cukup PANAS!!!

Wasn't anyone a pisau cukur(gold digger) before?

I know I was(still am,opps!). I am to my parents. To my sister. To some of my friends.

Some people hate it, some people love it. For both. Being the pisau cukur-er and being the pisau cukur-ee. I prefer being the former then the latter. Well who wouldnt be. But anyone in this current economy situations would have doubled up their efforts in syphening out anybodys money. It is bad, but if its for all the right reasons( like that new Top Man tee I just saw in QB)it would be alright.

But in Malaysia and Singapore latest trend, marry a Dato'.

Other then the fact he can marry four (so you and your many money-sucking friends can join in) he has all the purple's(RM100 in Malaysia is purple in colour) that you can dream of. I wouldnt mine being the toy a of a Datin, actually. But of course, I must be wanted to by them.BAH!

So here come's along Malaysia's new comedy movie that has hit the cinema.

PISAU CUKUR


Acted by Nur Fazura and Maya Karin, directed by the oh-so-famous Bernard Chauly(j'adore) and screenplay directed by the newcomer (well at least to moi) Rafidah Abdullah . Its the story about two best friends who are finding their money bag which really is a filthy rich Dato' that will make any girl a DATIN. Intan a pretty face journalist and Bella, a once contestant in a show called Who Wants to Marry A Millionaire are best friends go on a cruise holiday to catch them a big fish, but somehow things take a change and both meets their own catch,somehow not so very big according to their expectations. 'Gigi Besi' acted out by newcomer by Shahredza Minhat was quite good at his acting,especially in his witty dialog at getting Bella. My sis thought he was really cute and so was the girls that were sitting behind us. But of course man-of-all-mans title in Malaysia has just been stolen by Aaron Aziz, the ever dashing playboy detective whose got the crushes for Intan. I tell you, the moment Aaron comes in, girls just started squeeking. Who wouldnt?

The movie was superbly directed. Camera angles were excellent. Colours of clothing and the background was so bright and cheerful and so mood co-ordinated. The dialog,was hands down the winner for this year's Malaysian movie from me. Acting skills were realy good, especially by Fazure who of course excels at playing the 'tergedik-gedik' character and someone who I have got to say, I have the hots for. Rafidah really did a good job.I knew she was an excellent host, but a screen writer? Now thats something to watch out. Rumours has it that it was wholly done in an apartment?If it was true,two thumbs up for making it look like it was on a ship. The dancing by Maya was so-so. I like Maya Karin, but I dont really know if it should have been here for the place of Bella. She cant, I think carry out the role well. They should have taken another actress. But for all the glamour brought in by Maya and Nescafe,I guess, business wise it was not all a mistake after all.

Its really fresh to see that new faces that are being brought in and that people are given the chance to show off their talent.HIGH TIME. Bernard Chauly, you did it again! It would be good to see if you can make two movies a year. Like every 6 months, to up the standards of the Malaysian movies.

The cinema was jammed pack. I watched it on the second day. I dragged my sister along. Who bytheway, detest Malaysian movies for the very irony of it. But after this two, I think she's got some thinking to do. Next time a good Malaysian movie comes out, I am dragging my family and friends. I know whats coming out, Mualaff in December 16!

PapaDom



This movie was good. After much criticising on Mr. Afdlin Shauki of his movies on his blog page, finally the man came out with a movie called 'Papadom'.Thing about this movie is that they didnt show it off to the public once it was done. Instead, they showed had an official screening at the Malaysian Film Festival that was held in Kota Kinabalu earlier this year. There was much hype about the movie as it won alot of awards and was a stiff competition with Yasmin Ahmad's mind blowing movie 'Talentime'.

Anyways, this movie is about a father's( acted by Afdlin,of course) love for his daughter (acted by Liyana Jasmay) after the death of his loving and doting wife (Noorkiriah) in a car accident. The movie shows obsessed Afdlin becomes of his daughter from at the first shots of the film after his wife dies were that his was 'selamba' to try and take his daughter's top off to allow her to go and bathe (a very good touch!) and he brings her food to school complete with plates,rice, chicken, vege and the ever so famous food of the film-papadom.

The comedy in this movie was very very nice. Not like the previous movies he made that seemed to make flops and had bad malay jokes or in other words 'lawak kampung'. But this film it was so modern and it was really refreshing to see that there were also chinese and indian people acting in this movie. Most of the time in Malaysian movies they only show Malays,like as if they are the only race in Malaysia. Liyana's best friend (Chelsia Ng) played a good role with lots of dialog and so was Pete Teo as Afdlin;s best friend. There was a nice touch in the movie when Pete Teo said at one point, since there was him and Afdlin and Indian man runs a shop, they could all get Dato' ship titles.

The camera angles were good. The dialog made sense, so was its jokes. Lightings were abit problamatic at some parts (eg:at Yvone's house for the party). Sound system was good. But I think Mr.Afdlin should really consider not taking Vanida as his partner in any movie or well just not hire her at all. Ms.Vanida,face it. You cant act. Ms.Vanida Imran was as usual, as stiff as a stick but her dialog's gave her off,so it was ok on her part.Sepi was made succesful because of the wonderful and brilliant director Mr.Khabir Bhatia and it was also because of his dramatic effects the movie was nice. Given just by your acting,pfft.

I think this was a-one-of-a kind malay movie. It was such a different movie. This movie deserved their awards which were:

Best Original Story,
Best Actress,
Best Actor and
Best Film at the 22nd Malaysian Film Festival 2009!

Although, I would have given the last award to Yasmin Ahmad's 'Talentime'. It was just too good.

Mr.Afdlin, please make more movies like this. It was really nice to watch. And the boria part, good touch. Thumbs up!

Mom's



I honestly dont know how to understand mom's.

I fought with my mom for her taking a long LONG time doing her facial.

That is ok, but she told me to come before she really finished. And I was waiting at a non-waiting area for 45 minutes. It was like going crazy,sitting there and doing nothing.

Arrive 5pm. Yet I had to wait so long!

And how many times that stupid security guard warned me go away, like I was some crow.

- 5.15pm -

Security Guard: "Berapa lama lagi?"

Me: "Sekejap lagi"

Security Guard: "Sini tak boleh tunggu lama-lama. Bahaya. Asident"

Me: "Apenye yang asident uncle? Sekejap ja lagi"

- 5.30pm -

Security Guard: "Masih belum gerak lagi ke?"

Me: "Kalau dah gerak, takkan Uncle masih boleh cakap ngan saya?"

Security Guard does sour face like eatng jeruk mangga...

Me: "Ye la, ye la. Nak pi. Another 5 minit"

- 5.45pm -

Mom and sis enters the car and mom asks how are you and I start shouting about time and how can she do that to me. Being a mom that she is, she started yelling back, pointing her fingers and on the verge of probably hitting me. I am so pissed la. She emotionally blackmailed me.

She screamed about how I am now.

She screamed about how I would be then.

And she screamed about how I will be when I am with muy wife.

I tell you thats all they do.

I felt like moving out of the house intanttaneously. But being Malaysia, there are no support from anywhere if were to stay on our own. Plus I have no work so no cash and most definelt not able to rent anywhere so soon.

I will definelty leave Penang once I finish with my degree. I dont want to stay at home anymore and not in Penang. I would like to venture out.

Anyways, mom and sis left for Penang. God knows when she comes back what kind of drama will take place.

GOD ONLY KNOWS

Beyonce "Postpone's" Concert in Malaysia



Yes, I know.

She's not coming.

Due to the artiste sole reason.

I have no idea what is going on in this country. I am so fed up of so man things and this has just topped it all. Honestly,if the PAS people does not want to watch, the dont go. Its not a free show or something arangged by the government for the people. But it is a private show, where people pay so much to be entertained by the current greatest artiste on earth(after Michael Jackson).

The way the Malaysian's insult her is being so ignorant to their surroundings and very hurtful to any successful artist from anywhere around the globe. Honestly, everytime a female artist is suppose to come to Malaysia this narrow minded people come in and make a havoc and claim this is for the people. And what is unbelievable is that the government bows down to this culprits. How can it be so? I wonder who then is running the government.

Its not like as if after watching this people's performance everyone will go into a crime craze,or sex craze or a high. People are paying huge sums of money to be entertained. Not to wacth a glum show. The days of those kind of concerts have long passed and so should this people go along with them. Its not right to allow other people from having the free will to watch what they would like to watch on the basis just one religion. It doesnt mean by watching Beyonce and the likes perform will now make ALL MUSLIMS turn against the religion or start murtad-ing.

I find that its those who dont watch have the shallowest and puniest faith of the religion and of its people who professess the religion. The best thing is that the people who are demanding this shows to be put down are the uneducated bafoons without any proper education background and the one's who are following them like donkey with a carrot attached are the 'educated' one's who runs the department that deals with allowing foreign performance. Will they also try stoping any non-muslims entering the country form now on since they would also(in the minds of those narrow minded people) shaken the MALAYS faith?

Its only a matter of time before nobody comes into this country anymore and we will be lacking behind our competitiors,namely being Singapore who is dealing excellently in bringing foreign acts.

It is a shame.
