Buttercup?

So, I tried making a video of myself fooling, I mean singing a song that's pretty famous on youtube by Julia Nunes (originally by The Foundations). Huhu... but it failed! Epically! 





I mean, just look at that! O God! * face-palm* 

After much thought (cough*which takes only about one second after I looked at this video*cough), I think that it's best just to give the audio only rather than showing my silly face and how I tried very hard not to make a fool of myself. Sorry! No more videos of me singing in the future! At least not with my face shown I think :D

Well here's the audio! Thanks for listening!

Out of the box

Currently: reading some aritcles and forums
Current location: on a 3rd floor somewhere.
Current music: All the times that I cried, keeping all the things I knew inside, It's hard, but it's harder to ignore it. 




I love conspiracy theories. OK...not a good way to start a paragraph, is it? Well I have to admit that I really love conspiracy theories and all that jazz. I don't know why, but it started just recently by the way, or more precisely right after I finished The Arrivals. I'm not saying that The Arrivals was made up of pure conspiracies, since it's also based on the holy Al-Quran and from the Muslim point of view. There are a lot of conspiracy theories out there, you just have to know where to search but I find that those that  involving NWO (new world order) is the most engaging to me.

You know, it's amazing how these conspiracies can sometimes makes no sense and yet it makes me want to reflect more on the issues as well. It makes me want to search for the truth further. I have no idea how these conspiracy theorist have the abilities to connect each point and details and joins them to form a much bigger picture, considering how minute the details were sometimes. Fantastic. And the best part of it all is not the conspiracy theory itself actually, but the debate that comes out after, between those who support it and those who argue. It's an amazing eye opener what some of these opinions by other people's are. They tend to make me see things that is outside of the box! You should try it sometimes. Read on some of the conspiracy theories and see all the debates or forums regarding it. Don't judge them because they don't think like you are, but in some way try to open your eyes and enrich your knowledge! Rather than discussing on trivial matters that doesn't enlarge your knowledge nor worth your time. Thus I urge you to think outside of the box starting today!

Avast, me hearties! Fer today is the 'Talk like a Pirate Day', did you know? Well, I don't know about yer, but I don't know much about pirate language so in commemoration o' it, I be sayin' just one thing... Aarrr!!

Imma be on the account then! Fair winds!

Yo-ho-ho! :D

Selamat Hari Malaysia!

Disebabkan hari ini merupakan hari Malaysia, jadi saya terasa seperti terpanggil dan teringin untuk menulis dalam Bahasa Melayu, iaitu bahasa ibunda negaraku tercinta Malaysia. Bukan bahasa kolumpo atau bahasa melayu pasar seperti yang digunakan oleh ramai orang di Malaysia kini. Disebabkan Bahasa Melayu saya kurang lancar dan saya hanya mampu mendapat B sahaja dalam SPM, oleh itu maafkanlah sebarang kesilapan yang saya buat dari segi tatabahasa mahupun struktur ayat... hehe. Waaa... lamanya x tulis dalam bahasa Melayu. Kali terakhir adalah dalam SPM 2003 sewaktu menulis karangan untuk kertas peperiksaan Bahasa Melayu. Ceis.


16 SEPTEMBER 1963

Sebagai generasi muda yang tinggal di Malaysia, apa yang anda tahu tentang tarikh tersebut? Apakah signifikannya tarikh tersebut? Hmmm... 

Jawapan: MALAYSIA merdeka DAN ditubuhkan pada 16 September 1963

Saya adalah seorang anak Sarawak. Tiada rahsia lagi tentang perkara tersebut. Sejak kecil, saya telah diajar dan diberitahu tentang betapa istimewanya tarikh 16 September 1963 bagi mereka di Sarawak dan juga Sabah. Jadi persoalannya sekarang, mengapa kita merdeka pada 31 Ogos 1957? Hmmm...entahlah labu, labi pun tak tau... ooopss...terkeluar sikit bahasa pasar. Maafkan saya.

Setelah 47 tahun Malaysia merdeka, baru hari ini diraikan secara rasmi... How would you think we fellow Malaysian's from Sabah & Sarawak feels? (Please excuse my english...)

Andai saya ditanya soalan, adakah anda tersinggung apabila tahun merdekanya MALAYSIA adalah masih lagi pada 1957? Jawapan saya sudah semestinya, YA. Mengapa rakyat Malaysia, khasnya mereka yang berasal dari Semenanjung Malaysia selalu beranggapan bahawa Sabah & Sarawak masuk Malaysia?? Hmmm... 

Tahukah anda? 
Dipetik dari sebuah blog: 

"Ingat lagi satu perkara. Ingat sampai ke anak-cucu. Sabah dan Sarawak tidak MASUK Malaysia. Sabah dan Sarawak adalah dua bahagian daripada empat bahagian, termasuk Malaya dan Singapura, yang membentukkan satu negara bernama Malaysia. Sebenarnya lima bahagian kalau dikira Brunei sekali. Tapi Brunei masa tu tak nak bercantum dengan kitaorang."

Maka ayat yang lebih tepat lagi di sini adalah, Sabah & Sarawak sama-sama BERGABUNG untuk membentuk sebuah negara baru bernama MALAYSIA.

Untuk mengetahui lebih lanjut? Sila layari blog ini.

Saya SAYANG Malaysia. Tapi persoalan saya adalah, adakah anda sayang kami sepertimana kami sayangkan Malaysia? Adakah Sabah Sarawak kurang Malaysia? Hmmm... fikir-fikirkanlah...

Tetapi, satu perkara yang pasti adalah saya seorang rakyat Malaysia dan berharap agar Malaysia terus maju tanpa mengira asal usul, adat budaya, dan perbezaan masing-masing. PEACE!

SELAMAT HARI MALAYSIA!

Ingat tarikh ini: 16 SEPTEMBER 1963

What is Happening Here?

Current music: I wanna tell you sometimes / it feels like we've killed the world / Don't wanna leave you like no mercy left at all / Then I don't know where the love, will come back into our lives / It feels like saving the world, saving the world / You and I

Do you think that humanity is hopeless? Do you only see bleak and uncertain dark future for our kids? If you answered yes, then…shame on you! You need to get outta here! NO! Wait! I’m just kidding of course. Please stay. I need the traffic anyway.

Seeing what happens in our world today just plainly breaks my heart. Nations being oppressed, killings, genocides, war, famine, animal cruelty, exploitation, pollution and the list just goes on and on…  I do believe in humanity, I do. And I do believe that we can find peace and live in harmony regardless of race, religion and status. But it’s hard because we’re humans,  who (me included) are full of flaws, and we’ve been like this ever since God created Adam and Hawa (Eve). Jealousy, greed, hatred, ignorance, egoistic, arrogance, anger are just some of these flaws, or in other word mazmummah traits. Remember the story of Habil (Abel) and Qabil (Cain)? There’s even a Korean drama made based roughly on the events! But humans don’t really learn anything from this. I’m really sad.  I just hope that my children or your children and the children of their children will know peace, and it’ll not become just a word which never actually existed anymore… Give peace a chance!

I am not a preacher (I'm too flawed to be one anyway), but just a normal human being that can’t stand seeing another human being or any beings being hurt again and again and again by our disgusting flaws… makes me so ashamed of being called a human. Don’t we all have hearts?? What is happening here? What is happening?

I said this before and I would repeat it again, I still believe in humanity!


Hope that this doa will be in your prayers, my fellow Muslim brothers and sisters.
