We live in a beautiful world.

Earlier this evening, i read Buyot's blog. His latest entry, was definitely something i was familiar with. I myself did not/am still not have/having a normal childhood. As some of you might know, my parents were divorced when I was at the tender age of 5. Perhaps it was better that they separated and went on their own paths back when i was younger, as my sister and I did not have any idea of the on-goings at the time. Had they got divorced when we were more mature, im sure we would have been more emotionally affected. Unfortunately, an image of my parents in their bedroom shouting, screaming and yelling at each other still haunts me to this day and sometimes leave me sleepless at night.

About an hour ago, after putting down this book i bought at Ikano Power Centre's Popular Bookstore, i switched on the television in my room for some easy viewing. I am not sure of the show's name and 8tv's website is kinda a bitch to browse through, but it was about a lawyer slash matchmaker starring Alicia Silverstone who is a bombshell. On this one case she worked on, she helped this guy get some custody of his newborn child that his ex-girlfriend has given birth to. At the end of the show, the guy got what he wanted. When he held his son for the first time, in slow motion and with Coldplay's "The Scientist" playing, I swear i fucking teared. Perhaps it was what i read in Buyot's blog helped generate it.

Perhaps it was the fact that i want what that guy was experiencing. Fatherhood is, in fact one of the greatest joys a person can experience. I want to be a father. Obviously, i am too young at the moment, but I am sure as hell i want to provide my child the few things my father failed to provide me. I want to make sure, that my children gets to live a normal childhood. I want him/her/them to love life.

In the words of Chris Martin "We live in a beautiful world." Let's show the world what that's all about.

Priceless

knicked off friendster from izrin's bulletin

This is a true story about a recent wedding that took place at Clemson University. It was in the local newspaper and even Jay Leno mentioned it.

It was a huge wedding with about 300 guests.

After the wedding at the reception, the groom got up on stage with a microphone to talk to the crowd. He said he wanted to thank everyone for coming, many from long distances, to support them at their wedding. He especially wanted to thank the bride's and his family and to thank his new father-in-law for providing such a lavish reception.

As a token of his deep appreciation he said he wanted to give everyone a special gift just from
him. So taped to the bottom of everyone's chair, including the wedding party, was a manila envelope. He said this was his gift to everyone, and asked them to open their envelope.

Inside each manila envelope was an 8x10 glossy of his bride having sex with the best
man. The groom had gotten suspicious of them weeks earlier and had hired a private detective
to tail them.

After just standing there, just watching the guests' reactions for a couple of minutes, he turned to the best man and said, "Fuck you!". Then he turned to his bride and said "Fuck you!". Then he turned to the dumbfounded crowd and said, "I'm outta here."

He had the marriage annulled first thing in the morning.

While most people would have canceled the wedding immediately after finding out about the affair, this guy goes through with the charade, as if nothing were wrong. His revenge...making the bride's parents pay over $32,000 for a 300 guest wedding and reception, and best of all, trashing the bride's and best man's reputations in front of 300 friends and family members.

This guy has balls the size of church bells.

Do you think we might get a MasterCard "priceless" commercial out of this?

Elegant wedding reception for 300 family members and friends = $32,000.
Wedding photographs commemorating the occasion = $3,000.
Deluxe two week honeymoon accommodations in Maui = $8,500.
The look on everyone's face when they see the 8x10 glossy of the bride humping the best man = Priceless.

There are some things money can't buy.
For everything else there's MASTERCARD

Fortunate few?

I got this straight from The Star Online:

"Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak, who is also Defence Minister and chairman of the Cabinet Committee on NS, said those enlisted should feel fortunate to be picked from a pool of 471,376 individuals. "

FORTUNATE? if anything, i pity those who got chosen. They randomly chose 85,000 people attend national service. thankfully, i didnt get chosen. phew. haha. i know a few people who got chosen though, and theyre not too happy about it. happy or not, they still have to go through it. at least its not as bad as singapore's and thailand's version of the ns.

if you still dont know wether or not you got chosen, you can check out the official national service website here

i also read that if you dont attend, you will be punished as you are going against the law. thats right, they made it a law that you HAVE to attend the thing if you get chosen. if you dont, then they can sentence you to half a year in prison, a fee of rm3000 ringgit or both. but even after the sentence, you still have to go through national service in the following year. fucked up.

...of old friends and new finds

I met Meor today. god its been a while since ive seen him. hes so skinny man. serious, its like hes not eating enough. guess, the mckk food must really suck. but it doesnt make much sense, cause my dad was from mckk and look at the size of him. hmm. haha anyways, after prayers me, meor, fadh, bidi, ayam, and zak went to aunty junes for lunch. i had the pineapple fried rice. yumm. haha i ordered 7up, with ice but they gave me 7up ice instead. oh well, haha. after that i went to parade to ask the camera shop bout the nikon service centre in pj and shit, but thats not interesting.

what was interesting today was, when you think about it, all of us (me and my friends) have changed a lot through the years. myself for an example, i was really chubby during high school and im a lot leaner than i used to be haha. some of us have also started smoking, im not saying any names tho. hehe. our attitude overall have also changed. like some of us that used to be really active are now really quiet and kinda anti-social. the losers like myself last time are more socially-inclined now haha. well, i guess its how you want to lead your life. you lead the life you choose. if something is blocking you from doing what you want, you should jump the hurdle and proceed to the gate. dont let anything block you. its your dream and noone elses. quite a bit to think about eh?

today i found the song that brooke howard smith and dustin latimer sang at the end of vg20 roots. its called arizona by fierce asian gang. weird name for a band but hey whatever they want. i also think its funny how the initials of the band can spell fag. haha. so hey the song is awesome and you guys should definitely check it out. dont think you can find it on kazaa or limewire though. heres the link for the guys that wanna check it out. http://www.landscape.org.nz/fag/

i havent got an answer from her yet. i dont wanna seem pushy and keep asking her for it so im just gonna keep quiet. lets hope she even remembers. or hope that she reads this ;P haha. i read her blog this morning and it kinda helped explain some things for me. i just wished she had told me about it earlier. i've gone through a lot of shit trying to get her, and ive kinda reached a point where i just cant handle much more shit. so if she says no, i think im ready to let her go :-/ at least, my mind will be at peace once again after that eh?

it seems you can check wether or not you get chosen for national service. the papers however, states that you can only check on saturday (tomorrow) . but i still sms-ed my ic number, hoping that i would get an answer now, but nope, no answer. guess i'll wait till tomorrow for an answer then. i dont wanna go into the first batch though, i wanna go in the second batch. the first batch starts on the 13th of december till the 6th of march if im not mistaken. thats right after spm. - - - are you kidding me? i dont want to go for national service straight after months of studying and pure mental torcher. its not that i mind doing all the excercises and what-nots, its just too damn soon. they should have given us a little gap for us to release the tension before putting us through some more hoops. dumb government.

oh well, that's it for today, i'll try to fill some stuff in for the weekend or before the party at subang parade on the 30th. i doubt i will but i will try my very best. so im off to go watch the new dvd i just bought which was monty python and the meaning of life. it should be good. i really enjoyed monty python's life of brian and monty python and the holy grail. hehe. oh and just now, i redeemed the coffee bean card with all the stamps i collected, and got a regular ultimate mocha for only a buck and five cents. damn good deal. yay for me. ahah thats it. enough. bye all.

yeah she is, she wont stop talking bout her big ass (call her bigasselle from now on k thx) cause just now she, nadia and i went ice skating in pyramid and some guy was checking out her ass. so i just laughed. yes. i laughed. if you think im an ass now, im not forcing you to read now am i? so shut up. right so now shes still complaining, an hour after the thing, sigh baaaaaaah! oh and nadia laughed too! see! im not the only ass around these parts. haha.

haha, im listening to bubba sparxxx right now. the funny thing is, hes white, hes a redneck, hes fat, his name is BUBBA, but he can rap, hes not great, but hes alright. and i enjoy it. its weird. like, the only hiphop/rap music i listen to is like deltron 3030, sage francis and shit like that, funny how i can enjoy this poppy piece of bullcrud they call a song. yeah hypocritical of me eh?

i asked her to be my date for prom. and what do i get? not a no. not a yes. she says shes juggling people right now. uh huh. great answer to give. and shes only gonna give me an answer tomoro, so i guess im not sleeping tonight. yay! david lettermans on so its okay i guess. what else is good on regular television on a thursday night? oh well, i'll check the papers later.

oh, i read in the papers about the first national service intake. the first intake is on the 13th of december. you can check if your chosen for the first intake on the national service website this saturday the 28th here i hope i dont get chosen for the first intake, cause i wanna attend the proms!!! thats the highlight of december. fucking government.

thats all for now i guess, today wasnt as boring as yesterday, actually today was pretty fun. so im not gonna complain. im gonna continue eating the tempura fish the maid cooked (thanks aunty emilia!) and probably continue chatting. oh if you wanna add me on msn, its "iglue_is@sexmagnet.com" thats my email address as well if you wanna email me for god knows what. just no viruses k thx. haha.

Holidays are boring

Hello, its been a while aint it? well, the holidays are gettin boring, its only like the 4th day of holidays and i have run out of things to do at home, guess i better get my ass out of the house once in a while. I'm going out tomorrow, going ice skating with a buncha girls, sounds like fun :D haha. im listening to rjd2 right now, and i seriously love this guy, hes a dj that works with like 4 turntables to create the most awesome beats. if you wanna check him out, definitely download ghostwriter ;) its awesome as a possum. possums can get scary though, like if they get all rabid on you, you wont know what to do but run i suppose. how fast can possums run actually? i hope its not too fast cause im not too fast on my feet. i can do like 100m in 14 seconds. i know, thats weak, but i dont give the tiniest of rats' ass.

i watched harold and kumar goes to white castle a couple days back with my cousins. seriously one of the best movies of the year, beating eurotrip for me. but the movies i like are all dumb with stupid jokes anyways, like at one point these dumb posers asks kumar, "what kind of a name is kumar anyways? what is that? like 5 o's or 2 u's? what happened to good old american names?" i seriously laughed my ass off at that, haha but it could be because i was as stoned as a rock so i dunno.

well, im gonna go stare at the ceiling now, so goodbye. if you happened to be as bored as i am call me at 012-3392620. really, i dont mind, talk to me. please.
