So she asked him “Where do you want to have your birthday dinner? To celebrate ?”
He answered “ I never celebrated my birthday before, merely wishes that’s all”.

Make her sad only lah. Tsk.

So that night they had steak and she gave him a set of perfume. According to him,he never had any before. Weird, that’s what she thought.

Nevertheless, she was happy and she assumed he was happy because she saw his eyes twinkled and they were laughing all night, she even skipped a class for that dinner.

The funny thing was, he wanted to pay for the dinner. She said “ I paylah, it’s your birthday, so it’s my treat!”

“Oh, like that is it? ”

And when she gave him his present “ Ohh got present?”

Seriously?

That was two year ago. Exactly two years ago.The perfume is barely used and the other stuff was only used once or twice.

This year she asked him again. “What do you want for your birthday and where do you want to have dinner?”

“I don’t want anything else, I just want to have dinner at home with the one that I love”, eyes still focused on the road.

“Really?”

Frowned as if she was not satisfied with his answer. But somehow when he’s not looking, she looked outside the window and smiled. He, despite his simplicity and bongokness, still makes her heart flutter.

He just want to have dinner at home. With the one he loves. With her.

Amazing? Race

in deep thinking,personal opinion

I only watched the first season ala yang zabrina dengan apa ke nama partner die tu menang. That one was quite ok, ada variety. Oh I am talking about amazing race asia here.

The second season aku dah malas nak tengok sebab I feel it’s too commercialised. A Malaysian singer’s sister, who have pan asian looks and keep annoying me my saying “respect your wommen-ehhh[dengung disitu] on mix.fm? Come onlah, aku rasa nnoyed ada takde rasa nak respect pon. In fact most of the contestant have some look, kalau tak chantek/hemsem pon polishla sikit. Or with career [although ada couple yang differently able].

Sampai aku sendiri pon tak boleh determine yang mana satu negara mana sebab all of them look almost the same. Well, tak semua tapi almost. The accent adela satu dua yang nyonya and jawa lain-lain tu wahhh.

The third season. My, my. The contestants are miss universe, actor, actress, tv host, model bla..bla. ala you knowlah. I mean, can’t you just name it the amazing race of the famous and known instead? Or instead of saying “send you most interesting video bla..bla” just say “Heh, if you are nobody or unknown, kau jangan nak gatal-gatal hantar application”

I mean, what’s so amazing about that?

What would amaze me is when you choose those with real ethnicity. Like kalau Malaysia you can choose Indians who are proud to be Indian instead of wanting to be nigger, or chinese who are proud of their eyes and malay who are you know, maybe mat rempit ke? Or, those sabah and sarawakian ethnicity. Like he said, dayak or whatsoever. And don’t say that those people did not send their application, coz I know, some of they did.

Don’t they deserve a chance too? Why should you give chances to people who can afford to travel and see the globe while you know, racing? Kasila dekat orang yang agak-agak macam takde chance nak merasa those kind of experience. And those who have really interesting personality. I said personality, not lifestyle.

But heh, the bottom line is, it’s all about the money. Komfemla orang berpusu-pusu nak tengok Bernie berlari-lari dan menggelupurkan. Ataupon, some model indon yang cun terlari-lari , pengsan dan diangkat oleh boyfriendnya yang menyumpah-nyumpah. Itu semua foreseen drama. And who make the most money? AXN dan astro jugak.

*selingan*

I was alerted by him that ASTRO,namely starworld, starmovies and few channel are airing advertisement. WTF? We paid them so we don’t have to watch adverts, what is happening now?”

*selingat tamat*

Back to our topic, let’s just think for few moment, will it not be interesting to see some dayak struggling or some normal Indian racing with some japanese in order to win dicabar pula oleh mat rempit yang komfem menang dalam challange yang memerlukan bawak motor[kadang-kadang diorang kene naik motorkan hehe] ? Lagi-lagi kalau they are not too exposed, they don’t know what to expect what to see. That, to me will be one hell of entertainment.

Perhaps then amazement could be created.

I am tired

in deep thinking

What is happening?

I am currently doing a research about the effect of blogging an social networking but perhaps what I should do is “why do people blog” at the first place”

This thing has turned into some a) publicity battle field all the sudden, b) people bashing, c) perlumbaan blog siapa paling best atau siapa yang paling best or even d) PDA. And don’t let me go to the plagiarism part or even identity stealer.

It’s like blogging has been globalise . Everybody is writing about the same thing, well almostlah, not everyone but almost. Example, just look at the ramadhan post, tell me what type of entry do you always see?

Yeah, yeah I know it’s up to them to write whatever they want but last time it was not so like this. Memanglah ada but it way more fun dulu-dulu , zaman dimana blogspot tak boleh post gambar dan wordpress tak wujud. Sakit hati ok kalau nak share pictures. Masihkah anda ingat siapa-siapa yang terlibat?

Honestly, dulu I don’t feel the irk reading any blog.

And you get to write what you want, putting your heart at your sleeves, letting the vulnerable part of you out. Now, if you do that, watch your privacy die slowly. Habis mak bapak adik beradik entah sesape ntah ambik tahu hal engkau.

You have to be sensitive, to jaga hati the readers but hey, what about yours? You cannot write about certain things because it’s unethical tapi sometimes the readers sukahati aja main blasah to provoke either the blogger or other readers. I mean, everybody could be a bully virtually, hiding behind anonymity. Cuba kalau depan-depan, berani?

I always told someone I wanted to quit tapi tak bolehlah, who am I kidding man? Gatal aje tangan aku ni. But the truth is, I am tired. Tired but obligated. Tapi aku tak mahu terus menjadi salah satu statistik blog yang meaningless.

Two solutions:

a) blog at facebook
b) disable comments

Eh cannot blog at facebook. Another dilema, my nuffnang is doing so well, if to kumpul-kumpul the money that I got, I could buy a pair of weitzman already[tapi kene tambah sikitlah hehe]. So blog at facebook or private the blog is not a good solution. Maybe I could blog about more personal thing at facebook. Maybe.

Disable comment? Hmm. maybelah. I tried doing that not to long ago, quite peaceful. It’s like talking to MJ. She listens and that is enought to give me the comfort that I need cuma they are times when I need feedbacks so howlah?

Not that I don’t appreciate your comments, I do but sometimes I just need to just..let it out. Macam bila aku mengadu dekat emak, lepas tu emak membebel dekat aku. Potonglah dan bingit, I just want to mengadu. Or another good example, when you pray to Him, you say what you want, you even cry sometimes. He did not say anything [literally] but you know He listen. And because He is the Almighty, sometimes he provide you the solution in his Almighty way, even when he did not you still feel better. I mean, have you ever been in a situation yang sangat shitty dimana everytime you talk to Him you feel better or when you talk to your psychiatrist you feel better? I do, besides Him, dulu I always talked to epy, she is such a good listener, never judgemental and so supportive, a very good friend. That sort of comfort. I just need comfort, maybe I am the type who enjoy silent comfort [ade ke such thing?]

I think I sometimes wrote something like kata-kata nasihat is not welcomed and some people said “tak paham lah kenapa tak suka nak dengar pendapat orang”. Sebab apa? sebab I don’t need any, I just feel like letting it out of my system. Untuk melegakan otak.

I don’t know why I am typing this but somehow I feel like it.

Kan ke dah menyumbang ke statistic meaningless ni? Tsk.
