我同学也太牛B了吧



如题。。。。
感觉你们是一班乖乖站在那边给人家强奸,又要心甘情愿很high的人...
可是就是因为你们心甘情愿被人家强奸,所以当人家要找人好好做爱的时候,就懂得“益”你们...

Tales of Destiny II - Another satire of the capitalist system and religious doctrine

Tales of Destiny II revisited.
Inferia = capitalist system
Celestia = communist/socialist system
Eternia = the world
Eternia (world) consists of Inferia (capitalism) and Celestia (communism)
Grand Fall = the collision of Inferia and Celestia aka 2012

Seyfert = God
Seyfert's Ring = A circle dividing Inferia and Celestia (religion divides people)
Appearance of the dark matter --> Grand Fall (science)
Appearance of the dark matter --> Seyfert's second coming (Church)
So, Seyfert's coming = Grand Fall.
So, God = destruction.

In Inferia, there is a King. In Celestia, everybody is equal.
Celestia's technology is far superior than Inferia's, but Inferians are too proud to accept the fact.
Inferians think that the Grand Fall is caused by Celestians.
Balir causes the Grand Fall in Celestia, but he is an Inferian.
In the end, it is an Inferian who cause the Grand Fall.

P.S. I can write a thesis about this whole NAMCO game, but I chose not to. :) Just some of my insights will do.

醍瑚灌顶

不见的东西就让它不见,
不用找了,
还是读回手上有的卡片,
反正我相信那些不见的东西,
总有一天(虽然不懂是几时)自己会跑回出来。

流连忘返

“走啊走啊唱啊唱”
走走唱唱已日落西山。
走着唱着天已黑了,
可还是我舍不得回家。

“走啊走啊唱啊唱”
唱到累了也一样要玩。
看着你啊,心情晴朗,
怎你就是不说话?

“我边走边唱,边走边唱”
突然沉默一片,才开始接受,
原来我早已流连忘返...

还是会寂寞

“你是否觉得虽然身边绕着一堆人,心里却还是觉得寂寞?”
有,这不就叫”朋友甚多,知音难寻”吗?

有时候身边有个人陪着我们,还是没法完全消除那种感觉。
“这是一种吃力不讨好?还是明天会更好?”

有时候天敌就是指引,不做你知音,怎当你天敌?
“如果是这样的话,天敌,你出来吧!”

“我曾经也有个很能说话的对象。”
第肆天干第肆季,
此季茂叶合吾意,
可恨此果主人栽,
吾等路人只能嫉。

三句问鼎,不须多言

一个学期即过,眼看吾大马学生会今期无声,下期定无息。
试问吾会,宏图何展?
试问吾君,雄志何在?

自取其辱

因为一个不像样的蛋糕,
就是珈瑛牵强说还可以的蛋糕,
就是嘉宇说很不行的蛋糕,
就是我自己认为根本不是蛋糕的蛋糕。
全美冠军又怎样?
比得又不是做蛋糕。

辱得好,
我做的蛋糕都是失败的。
我做的蛋糕有那几次是正常的?
正常又漂亮且好吃的蛋糕怎可能是我做的?

也罢,
等我一次伟大的成品,
过后就立刻收山,
至少在尔等面前也不敢在弄大斧,
因为要操刀难免是新奇的作品,
是这样的话,
干脆收山,免得再次自取其辱。

FML

How ironic is this?
I did well on the quiz,
but flunked the midterm for Physiology...
Yes, FML

Did really bad on coliform.
I'm victimized by the ego of the mighty Jennifer Perry.
Still mind fucked by thermotolerance and thermodurics..

Screwed up my calculations for iron content?
WHY??? WHY????
I'm supposed to be the math wiz here...WHY???

YES. FML

于心有愧



好感触哦...
词也写得其娘之好了吧...
用我那剩下一点点的Acetylcholine和ATP伸出右手,
再运用Sarcoplasmic reticulum里的Calcium握着你的右手,
讯息沿着Efferent pathway用着Graded和Action potential交替送到嘴边,
对你说:恭喜发财!

Warisan Merdeka: 让你进退两难

好一座Warisan Merdeka,
好一个5亿令吉的世纪大计划,
好一笔可以让多少没钱读书的人读书,让多少没钱开饭的人开饭的5亿啊!
纳吉这是在装傻还是想和老马比伟大?
这是场纯粹的巧合,还是中计中计?
倘若在转手之前动土,
请问那时是该建或不建?

一座美景大桥就已经很无谓了,
幸亏也没建(阿都拉唯一一件功德),
别再乱Fing钱了好吗?
Fing不是Fing别人的钱,是Fing借回来的钱阿!

Yu Yevon & Sin: Final Fantasy X a satire of God

Yevon lives within Sin.
Yevon defines Sin.
There will be a rebirth of Sin with an extermination of Sin, given the presence of Yevon.
To truly exterminate Sin, there can be no Yevon.

After defying Yu Yevon, there will be New Yevon;
After defying God, there will be a new God.
This is human nature.

The life cycle is all backwards

You should die first.
Start out dead and get it out of the way.
Then you wake up in a nursing home, feeling better every day.
You get kicked out for being too healthy, go collect your pension, then, when you start work, you get a gold watch on your first day.
You work 40 years until you're young enough to enjoy your retirement.
You drink alcohol, you party, you're generally promiscuous and you get ready for high
school.
You go to primary school, you become a kid, you play, you have no responsibilities, you become a baby.
Then, you spend your last 9 months floating peacefully with luxuries like central heating, spa room service on tap, larger quarters everyday, and finally you finish off as an orgasm.

I rest my case.

Pure Mental

那天在机场讨论着性格的问题,
老爸说我是Mental Emo,
大概是在指我凡事想太多,
接着的是用排除法排除我含physical,
可能因为我是NATO(No Action Talk Only),
再加上很少人是纯粹的Mental,
就算几率大,也不够爸那个在Intel的同学这样Pure Mental(就简称anti-social),
因此断定我是Mental Emotional。

Aunty雯华确说应该是Mental Physical。
”三思“的的习惯确映现Mental的特质,
可是physical部分,
同样运用排除法,
单凭McD的大M作测试,
就一口断定我不是EMO的人。

我只想说的是,
家维我极可能是Pure Mental的,
甚至有人曾经说我是anti-social的。
这点就算不全然正确,
我也没有我很social的例子去justify我不是anti-social。
所以Pure Mental, I might be。

"Prejudices or Stupidity?"

The above is the title of an article in the Malay Mail dated 20 August 2010.

The following are some of my favorite excerpt from the journalist, Yushaimi Yahaya.

...the very same so-called equality crusaders are recklessly prejudiced themselves.


and another one,

I see a lot of good cars on the road and know of many who live in comfortable houses.


Now I wonder what does that mean?

It feels good to be KING

First time in Ohio State history, IFTSA Product Development Champion…
It seemed like a dream when Jackie Koch announced the winners….

Looks like Cornell was not as strong as it is supposed to be.
Being Cornell, they were bold to introduce such an exotic flavor, a flavor even some Asians have never heard before. Tamarind, I know that because I am from South East Asia, or Malaysia to be precise.
Tamarangles is what their product’s name. Imagine a square, gluten-free pop tart being cut diagonally into two triangles. Instead of cinnamon brown sugar or strawberry, this gluten-free product uses tamarind chutney as its filling.
Their product was very interesting, however….

They were cheaters. Trying to use the best ingredients and best packaging materials, they did not account for any of those in the marketing. Actually, I didn’t recall them explaining the profitability in their presentation or in the poster.

Their attitudes just make me sick. After IFT, I don’t even know I want to include Cornell in my list of graduate school anymore. Maybe I’m better off at average schools. Thinking of which, I might not do as well as I was if I were in Badlishah. It’s what they call, I can be good at Cornell, but at Ohio State or other schools, I can be one of the best.

Rutgers….how can I forget…
They made a beef granola targeted for the male consumers. Ruggets, or manola, or ewwnola (as according to Natalie) includes beef, nuts, dried fruits in this masculine piece of snack.
To be honest, I was not expecting them to be in the top three, not to mention 1st runner up.
But after giving it a thought, it’s something that is never seen, never heard before products and I heard that the judges really liked it during the tasting session.

Nine months of sleep-deprivation, evening meetings, test kitchen experiments finally paid off.
It’s been a great experience, not to mention how valuable the experience is to all of our future careers are. I have more than this to say, but some are better off kept secret.
And Yeah, to those who are still wondering what food science or the food industry is, this is the perfect thing to represent the bright future of the industry. Good times or bad times, whether it’s in the spring or the winter, people need food, and when people need food, we, future food scientists will always be there.

人各有志

Ok, here goes nothing...
This would be seem rather vague so bear with me.

Now, there are some people out there who just cannot see where they are.
They cannot see hope,
they begged for God's mercy,
they desired freedom from God,
they wished to be exempted from God's wrath, because they did something really really paranormal.

Now,
Let's not talk about the existence of God,
that is not the point of my argument today.
Evolution happens, hence adaptation is inevitable.
However to defy a historic scripture (not to mention its sacredness) is to defy the wisdom of our ancestors, which had been passed down for millenia.
The scriptures are rules to guide us through life.
The bible, the Quran, the Four Noble Truths, each and every one of them function in providing a guide to wellbeing.
Yes indeed Life (or God or cosmic interaction or whatever you like to call it) does enjoy pulling his/its jokes on us mortals.
In spite of the lack of fair judgment,
you have no power to say no,
you have no right to do against what is right,
and it does not make sense for you to do so.

Rules are meant to be obeyed, not broken.
Life is not about you solely,
it is about your family, your friend,
your society, your country,
and the whole karmic cycle.

We are easily influenced by the media,
by advocacies, by the liberals, by some of our forefathers.
You shall have the intellect over your decision, over your choice.But
But you have been told,
there are what we call right and wrong,
We advocate a perfect world, we worship the purity of a human heart and will.

希望你有缘读到这篇文字的话,也希望这支mv可以给你一点启发.

就跟你《谈情说案》

“爱情是一条数学题”。
“古今中外,爱情本来就是一条数学题”。

今天你可以用社会交换论去解释剧中的一切等价交换,也可以去用不同眼光去解读它。

一个社会除了交换、买卖等价价值的同时,我们也必须去承认这个社会是有其法则,有其规律的。换句话说,社会结构的每一个单位都有其先天的功能,这是我们没法去扼杀的。

我想说的是,《谈情说案》一剧是以犀利妹答应Kingsley求婚落幕,是一个我个人觉得是“典型TVB戏剧开心大团圆结局”的结束方式。现实上,真的还有可能吗?

Fuck You

打是疼你,骂是爱你,Fuck You是关心你...

所以,对你说Fuck you是在关心你...

城门失火后

城门失火后殃及池鱼,
是因为城门太高太坚,才会惹那纵火者纵火,
结果就殃及这条纵火者和城门以外的池鱼。
池鱼本来善于喷水,
不过纵火者一纵火,
来一个水火不容,
鱼儿顿时成了ikan bakar...

城门阿城门,是斗气法好,激将法都好...纵火者显然很不喜欢...
纵火者阿纵火者,是气也好,是被激也好...虽然池鱼也在城里,可是池鱼是无辜的啊...

Our product



I don't wanna name our product here...but here is the product of our hard work thus far....
叶舞疾风 斜背夕阳 只影趋北逆浪
梦里故乡 叹望月光 彻夜辗转难忘
大马阳光炎 俄州四季变
静静待一年 保我家园变天

若偏见可无 恩怨可消
若无知尚除 爱恨易了
我愿挺起胸膛
我望圆我大业
我在MASA站不上台前,
我还是可以做幕后...
更何况,
现在建言社更需要灌溉。

别以为Kulim人都是老爱想当官,
Kulim人只是比较喜欢办活动而已...

Broken Hearts

最近有注意到一个以cover lady gaga的paparazzi,也据说会替代justin bieber的新少年偶像, greyson chance.

他其中一首自创歌曲《Broken Hearts》,我最喜欢的一段词是这样写的:

Broken hearts never fade away
Broken hearts are here to stay

I know what we’ve been waiting for
But that doesn’t give you the excuse tooo
Then all the reason you can
Especially, my best friend


看到这个ginna年纪轻轻就已经写了好几首,
我这么久以来也就是那一首...
看到这个ginna,
又令我有股想重新创作的冲动....
吉他啊.....

我的答案

老爸:“诶,有拍拖吗?”
老妈:“好像只有你一个这样大都没有拍拖的。”
A君B君:“有kao女吗?”

各位,
不用惊讶,
其实我也是爱自己多过爱那一个她,
我是爱自由多过爱责任,
可以爱那一个她的时候,
我选择了爱(那一个她)’,
就是那些除了那一个她以外的人。

嘿,久违了

以Death of a Salesman作参考
OSU作背景,
Malaysia当Boston,
你来当Biff,
她来当American Dream
我就来当Willy Loman
My version:
Willy Loman says to Biff, “I don’t need you to tell me what to do or teach me how to do it, even if I do not know what to do and how to do it”.
Willy’s monologue: “Sorry son, you’re what I interpret as the American Dream. It’s just that sons do not teach their fathers how to do things. It means to challenge the fathers’ sense of masculinity”.

看完80年代那天看不完的电影,Willy和Biff两父子抱在一起哭的那一幕,顿时让我想起前几个月前,半夜三更潜意识对我放映的一些画面...

住在一起,真的不一样

请恕家维我这老是爱想太多的习惯,
不过对于郭姐姐昨日的那席话仍然是耿耿于怀。

郭姐姐说,S小姐和Y小姐因为被我们这一家对T君的评语受影响,
结果现在对T君也有着和我们相同的观点。

首先,套Mandy说得很对的一句话:“住在一起真的是不一样的。”

好,就算今天所述两个人是有听旁人对T君的不良评价,可旁人说得就真的是那一回事吗?今天你可以在我面前说戴佩妮的种种不是,不过要真正去确定这件事,是必须由我自己去求证的。同样的道理,倘若今天不是所述两个人亲身有体验,相信大家也不会去断章取义,绝不会单凭旁人的三言两语去对一个人判“死刑”。

再退一步好了,假设说这两个人耳根子极度软,所以容易受他人影响。可是耳根子软的问题应该不是个个都有的。早在173的日子,有如此想法的人岂仅我一人?所以说关键在哪里?是我们把问题无限量放大?还是由此止终,问题就是那么大?如果问题是存在且那么大的话,为什么只有一部分的人有怨言?关键就在于,有人善于嬉皮笑脸去掩盖想法,有人则善用言语无形无色的赏对方耳光,更有一种人是会把“不爽”二字写在脸上的。我,很不幸的,是那第三种人。刚巧,那两个人也只是比我好一些,只是在“受害者”不在场的时候才会吐不满。

说回Mandy的那句话,有谁会料到今天的这种局面?试问有谁是不愿意和人家和睦的?原先我也以为可以,可是日子久了,才知道T君到底是什么底子什么性格。更荒谬的是,原先以为难搞的是另一个人,结果奇怪的是,那个人竟然是更容易相处,更愿意负责任的人。

所以说,是我们对T君不公平吗?是,也不是。是,在于大家都是急性子,都是没有爱心的人,没有耐心去教育这孩子、没办法忍耐这孩子的性格。不是,则因为在71的篇章还没有掀开前,已经有种种问题的存在。所以,如果说是我们不经意的在从中作梗的话,真的无法苟同。

最后让我草草地总结一句:住在一起,真的是不一样的。
I know my room is small...
But please don't underestimate my room...
My room has good fengshui...
My room has plenty of sunlight coming in during the day...
My room is the closest to the bathroom, that way you can have the upper hand getting into the bathroom in the morning...
But the foremost important thing is,
Given desperate measures,
I can cover the water bill and electricity bill....That'll be my second last resort...

一首想唱很久,MOMO又没有收录的歌

两个玩笑

如果人类真的有那一个他去创造出来的话,
那我要说的是,
打我娘胎出来,
这21年多来,那个所谓的他已经开了两个玩笑...

不过我宁愿去相信的是,
很多东西是很久很久以前的我种的因,
现在的我受了21年多的果。

我知道很多事情是错的,
我知道很多事情是很难让人去接受的,
因为连我都接受不了。
人谁无错,
重要的不是知错,而是能改。
我知道要我去改的过程是比任何一种错都来得难,
可是难不代表不可能。

Nutritional experience: B Comp and Cal Mag

Hypothesis: The consumption of B-comp and Cal-Mag simultaneously induces sleep.

Trial 1: I take my B-Comp (2) and Cal-Mag (2) during the morning together with the usual stuffs.
Result: I slept during sensory class.

Trial 2: I take my B-comp (2) without Cal Mag.
Result: I slept during sensory class.

Trial 3: I take my Cal Mag (2) without B-comp.
Result: I felt less sleepy and was more attentive.

Speculation: The result of the first trial match well with my initial belief. For Trial 3, it make sense that the sleep induction stops when you break the combination. However for Trial 2, it seems odd that B-comp alone can have the same effect as Trial 1, which is highly suspicious.

Result: To improve your sleep, take 2 tabs of Cal Mag and 2 tabs of B-comp at night.

Extra info: If you take too much "cooling" food that week e.g. bamboo shoots, please take your Cal Mag in extra doses. Do not end up like me having cramps all the time. If you want to eat your bamboo shoots, just take your calcium!

历史没有如果

我不信教,可是我相信有那么一个比较特别的个体。
这个个体可能真的是一股相对比较具体的宇宙力量,
可能是一个很抽象的一个创造者,
或可能就是从big bang开始宇宙各个物体的互动的一种形式,
不管是以上哪个都好。
世界每一个角落都有鬼神之说,天堂地狱的概念,
当然包括中国,
所以你说那是巧合吗?又不见得...

为什么人文历史篇章上会有鬼神、天堂地狱、甚至演化成我们今天各大宗教派系呢?
今天不谈。

现在要说的东西是,
中国人的无神论。

中国,一个包含超过五千年历史的一片土地,
从被记载的黄帝时代到一百年前的清朝,
哪怕当政的是汉人、蒙古人还是满洲人。

在想,信“共产教”的中国人,换言之就是那些不信神的,
中国几千年流传下来的神话人物你们会信吗?
就女娲补天、盘古开天辟地等等...

然后中国人说他们信命运、信风水,
命运和鬼神之说真的可以区分开来吗?

今天中国是中华人民共和国,不是中华民国,
到底是好还是不好?
哎...讨论这个有什么用?
讨论如果当年蒋介石没有战败的话...
讨论如果今天中国不是共产党国家的话...
真的没意思...
历史,是没有如果的...

一种食物

有一种食物,
本来是很喜欢吃的食物,
后来不懂怎样就慢慢不去碰它了。

导致这种问题的基本上有几个可能:
一、这种食物不好吃;
二、你吃腻了,想换口味;
三、这种食物突然变得很贵,吃不起了;
四、开始发现这个食物对身体有害,所以不敢再吃了。

很废是吗?是的,很废,
不过我要说没一段废话都有我的理由。

我期待

这个学期已经忙到了第五个星期六,
周六是我唯一能睡到八点的一天。
SEL已经成了我的家,
71 E Maynard仅是我睡觉洗澡的地方,
从起初不敢乱花钱,
到今天可以餐餐都吃No.1,
因为我觉得用5-6块钱吃一餐换取回家自己下厨的时间,
这个tradeoff是可以做的。

很想念在家吃的那些日子,
很想念那些可以亲自试验想法的日子;
今天的我不是没有新想法,
只是没时间去做实验。

课业忙归忙,
还是不能忘记课外活动。
听起来很歪,感觉很本末倒置是吗?
我曾经给大家说过,
我课业就算再忙,
也要舍命陪君子。

建言社,就只差郭姐姐和Mandy姐姐去Training,
接下来能做的就是等,
等Ohio Union把公文批了,
建言社就能正式去做宣传。

希望这次郭姐姐来当主席,一切都能顺顺利利,
还是应该说,只要不是家维我当主席,一切就能顺顺利利?哈哈...

无论如何,
我现在只能说,
我期待我们第一个活动,
我期待我们讨论的计划,
我期待全美赛,
我期待这个更家的地方,
我期待这个更佳的感觉。
我们虽然错过了世辩,
不过我相信,这个发了很久的梦,有一天会实现的。

MASA 10/11

2010/11 MASA-OSU Executive Board

President: Adam Sharuddin
Vice President: Beh Hong Bing
Secretary: Chong Voon Ying
Treasurer: Kang Jia Yi
Public Relation I: Choo Kah Mun
Public Relation II: Khong Chen Yee
Webmaster: Muhammad Fadhil Ghazali

First things first, congrats to the people mentioned.
There you have it, VP Anson Beh, and just like I predicted, there is a black horse. Why? Because attendance is not good (you know what i mean).

A little thoughts about the previous committee.
Fahmi is a nice guy, but sadly not a good president. Being a liberal(sort of) Malay, he's nice to be with, but sadly MASA wasn't getting better under his leadership.

Geraldine Lau, the biggest joker joked on everyone running for PR Officer (and elected) and transferred to NYU several weeks later.

Ok, now...
Anson Beh, we have high expectations of you,
VP, make a name for yourself, make a name for Malaysians in OSU.
Treasurer, do your best to assist VP in achieving MASA's goal.
But as a whole, the team needs to get together as one entity, and make those who have elected you all proud. Because you bear responsibility towards everyone of us. (Don't make me eat my own words, I don't want to be like Jenn once saying that Fahmi is good.Cuz he just turns out to be average.)

Lastly, I hope that the committee members will be doing a great job in promoting Malaysia, and just simply give us something new, big and exciting.

两天后的MASA改选

MASA两天后就要改选了,
改选竟然是在个Park进行,
而且还是一边bbq,一边开会...
这是小事,不要紧...

要紧的是,
我当时得打工,所以估计应该到不了现场。
BBQ不了事小,投不了票事大!
在想,不懂能用phone vote吗?呵呵..

基本上主席这一职,
我心中开始预选又有了变数。
担心会有一只黑马杀出来,
对!是比那只马更黑的黑马!

不过话说回来,
我们马兄选主席的决心时显时隐,目前没人知道他意愿是怎样...
可惜我还有两个quarter就毕业了...如果我在OSU还有满一年的话...

好几年前,第一次接触FF7,让我听了又听,越听越有感觉的一首曲...也就因为这样,我从头到尾的party都有Red XIII...

Utterance of dad's dream

Recalled what dad said a few years back,

Ben has great depth, great ideas, but lack implementation.
Jason has great initiatives, but lack logicality.
Justin has in-born charisma and influence.

Ben's a thinker,
Jason's an executor,
Justin's a leader.

In a corporation, say Yeap Holdings,
Ben will be the mastermind.
Jason will be COO.
Justin will be CEO.

My version:
In Shu of Three kingdoms,
Ben will be Zhuge Liang.
Jason will be Zhang Fei.
Justing will be Liu Bei.

I want to be in you!!!

I want to be the french fries dipping in your ketchup...
I want to be hot bean paste all over your tofu...
I want to be the fish on your chips...
I want to be the meatballs on your angel hair...
I want to be the sauce in your lasagna...
I want to be the tortilla chips in your guacamole...
I want to be the cream in your cannoli...
I want to be the cheese over your macaroni...(ooo...rhyming)

P.S. Don't ask me to see a psychiatrist guys...I just wanna explore a new realm of me...XD

三点六域

在美食与营养之间找寻平衡点;
在科学与创作之间找寻突破点;
在人生与梦想之间找寻共识点。

这种前提,多没趣

那么久没见到自己家里的人了,
想说要一起出来吃饭都是一个问题,
哎...在这种前提下...
一个人真的会显得寂寞点...
还是自己随便找个餐馆去吃,随便写个paper算了,
反正现在很没趣,
吃什么一样没趣,
写什么更加没趣...
你看...一写就是三个“没趣”...多没趣...

过了四年

就这样
两年 又两年
坐了两年 站了两年
吵了两年 静了两年
爱了两年 恨了两年
梦了两年 醒了两年
就这样 过了四年

不累不累

春季差不多过了两个星期,
也不懂是我真的老了,
只感觉疲惫无比。

这忙碌的春季,
那technical problem solving,
这么一科third writing course就可以要人命了...
要帮我分担吗?要的话就帮我想怎样把oreo类型的cookies bake到less dusty...

再一科sensory evaluation,food engineering...
两个minor科,两个极度无聊的课...culture class还过得去,至少能听故事...至于issues class...我尽力去enjoy它就是...

不过最enjoy的还是太极课...所谓太极生两仪,两仪生四象,四象生八卦...oops...是学太极,不是易经..hehe...

然后product development team...一个字...paranoid...

再来是一个很重要的东西,辩论队自立门户....嗯!我不累!

我......生活

我...生活...
为了破常规...
为了惊天地...
为了真善美...
为了见真章...

我生活...应该...
需要爱...
露真情...
当自强...
早勤学...

我生活应该...有...
已知的自己...
未知的知己...

我生活应该有...你因为...
我渴望竞争对手...
我渴望倾谈队友...
我渴望名利双收...
我渴望有个你永远陪我左右...

春花物语

春天来了,看见两只松鼠在草地上追来追去,
突然感觉自己好窝囊...

我佩服白人总统,
我佩服黑人总统,
我更应该佩服华人总统,
可是女人?
I just feel funny about ladies,
they have this really random reactions about things 4-5 days a month.
So you just wouldn't know when you'll upset a lady.

The quote

When you're disturbed over something,
Just think of a really good quote 3 years ago,
You'll feel better....
Yeah, you should probably get that quote into your head,
then you might be able to be a temporary visual paralyzed patient...
You'll be better off that way, I presume...

Let's change a point of view, shall we?
There is a distance isn't it?
Yeah, but really, other than these stuffs here, I have nothing more to elaborate on.
You know I gotta have something that I can boast about right?
And also, please reset the setting will you? Because the information is misleading.
And yes, do continue to do so. Thanks for the courtesy, even though I do not appreciate that.
And oh yeah, last but not least, Good Luck!! You'll need plenty of that!!

如果有一件事是重要的



曲倒是还好,我喜欢的是陈姗妮写的词...
针对自己说
“搞政治的人还是少搞,搞心计的人还是少参”

恩,是时候真正学学去搞政治,玩心计了...
“诚”好像有点out了,也好像不是很受欢迎...

斗不完的派斗

鹿竟然死在老蔡的手,
就在看一场和老廖之间AB派的派斗,
一场续林良实时代的派斗,
一场续黄家定时代的派斗,
一场续翁蔡两家的派斗,
一场一直会有下去的派斗,
续马华内斗不完的派斗。

冥冥

很多东西冥冥中有安排的,就好像:
1. 有两个人本来是没有lalang的,就因为一个这样的意外,那两个人现在可以是那么好。
2. 这两个人要一起吃过苦,然后又一起“幸福”?好,不要引号,是幸福。希望这两个人都有各自的幸福。
3. 被一个first attempted的mont-blanc-to-be custard-gateaux打坏了名声,又被一个极简单,也可以说是自己最拿手的作品,也听闻是胜过secret recipe的chocolate mousse cake挽回了名声。呵呵...
4. 还有冥冥中家维我要继续《单》下去...
我爱上这家人
所以才进这家门
其实是人的风景好
比那家门更迷人

谁不想过得轻松一点?

谁不想过得轻松一点?
无处无芳草,
时时想嚼草,
草边有毒药,
胃胀不得了,
吃了一株,吃不了第二株,
吃下第二株,才发现自己已病入膏肓,
病的是身体,慌的是心情。
吃草为了忘记树上石榴的余味,
吃草为了实行自己设下的骗局,
每个人都会留恋,
每个人都有谎言,
所以继续鼓励我青草一株吃完又一株,
就算吃到我胃有问题,
就是要吃到我自己彻底厌倦为止。
我也会厌倦的,
谁不想过得轻松一点?

Masculinity and Capitalism in Arthur Miller’s Death of a Salesman: The Struggle of the American Middle Class

It was America’s darkest moments in history. The Wall Street Crash of 1929 which consequently leading to the Great Depression caused extraordinary unemployment in America’s total workforce population. With the heavy industry such as mining and manufacturing hit hard, in addition of the newly-elect President Franklin Roosevelt’s policy to cut farm’s production, America for sure had drastically changed its economic mode even post World War II. Death of a Salesman, written by playwright Arthur Miller in Post Great Depression cum World War II 1949, revolves around the lives of the Lomans in this period of economic transition. This evolution of the economy through time altered class relations, precipitating a crisis of masculinity of American middle class workers (Rough). As a result, the men of Lomans representing the American middle class, in doubt of their identities in the modern capitalist world, struggle to search for their lost senses of masculinity.

Using his play Death of a Salesman, Arthur Miller depicts capitalism as a the culprit who is stripping the sense of masculinity off the American middle class workers represented by Willy, Biff and Happy Loman. These men face a crisis of identity, self-doubting due to their inability to utilize their masculinity in the modern, feminine capitalist society. These claims are not made merely based on surmises, but the emergence of every character and objects, and the symbols and significances they bear weave together to tell the audience that these men fails to achieve their dreams at that period of history.

The transition of the two very different modes of economy is presented in Death of a Salesman as the chronological background of the play. The era of Willy’s brother, Ben and their father represents a masculine, manufacture-based economy requiring hard labor work. On the other hand, Willy’s selling career which he deems to require oneself to possess personal attractiveness “because the man who creates personal in the business world, the man who creates personal interest, is the man who gets ahead” (33), seems to be the embodiment of femininity. As elucidated in an article written by Stephan Desrochers entitled “What Types of Men Are Most Attractive and Most Repulsive to Women?”, women in contemporary American society prefer men who portrays feminine personalities and traits. When Willy asked if he is picked, the woman confirms him by saying that Willy is “so sweet. And such a kidder” (39). Therefore, he utilizes this perception and “feminizes” himself in order to with “a buyer” who “buys for J. H. Simmons” (120).

As we can see from the play, Willy’s incapability to cope with the switch of economic orientation over the years causes his failure as a salesman. The service-based occupation of a salesman eats away his confidence day by day when he no longer can gain profits and bring money into his household. To make things worse, he even resort to asking help from Charley, his neighbor financially whenever he is in need of money. Furthermore, the representation of masculinity and femininity by the economic evolution exhibited through the juxtaposition of the occupations of Willy and his father, further portrays Willy’s struggle in the capitalist world.

Willy’s father, very like Willy is a travelling salesman. However, his father does more than just selling. He manufactures his goods. Ben once explains to Willy that
“Father was a very great and a very wild-hearted man. We would start in Boston, and he’d toss the whole family into the wagon, and then he’d drive the team right across the country; through Ohio, and Indiana, Michigan, Illlinois, and all the Western states. And we’d stop in the towns and sell the flutes that he’d made on the way. Great inventor, Father. With one gadget he made more in a week than a man like you could make in a lifetime” (Death of a Salesman, 49).
In response to Ben’s satire, Willy confesses that he raised Biff and Happy to be rugged just like their father. In this case, Willy’s identity crisis further expands and confuses him when he admires his “masculine flute-manufacturing” father but at the same time being a “feminine service-providing” salesman himself.
Frankly we can see from the play that Willy actually yearns towards a masculine self like his father and brother. He desires to be successful by manly means, in this case, to explore Alaska and to mine diamonds in Africa. Disgruntled by his life, Willy always expresses his regrets for not following his brother’s footsteps mining diamonds in Africa. His value towards his own construction work also shows that Willy actually thirsts for a sense of masculinity.

“Maybe we could buy a ranch. Raise cattle, use our muscles. Men built like we are should be working out in the open” (23).
These are the words Biff utters to Happy up in their bedroom. From the conversation, we can obviously know that Biff true potential lies in the far West where he can work on farms, with his bare hands, out in the open. The American West provides Biff with an opportunity to earn a living with hard labor work, and to pursue his masculine American Dream. In “Rough Work and Rugged Man: The Social Construction of Masculinity in Working-Class History”, Steven Maynard again believes that “masculinity is bound up with the labor process, the notion of skill, and the experience of work.” When Biff says that he is going to see Bill Oliver for an opportunity to get into business, Willy suggests to him that he can go into sporting goods because he knows about it very well. The fact that Biff once works as a labor in the West and his knowledge about sporting goods and not other things else, tells us that Biff embodies the traits of masculinity, as resonated both in Messner’s and Maynard’s work. Besides the Wild West and sporting goods, the name “Biff” further implies who Biff really is. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the word Biff means a blow using the knuckle. Again, the definition of Biff’s name is not mere confidence but rather is the playwright’s intention to show Biff’s innate masculine nature.

Sport, especially football also bears a significant symbolism in Death of a Salesman. As a football player which allows “the social construction of masculinity” as termed by Michael A. Messner in “Power at Play: Sports and the Problem of Masculinity”, insert a masculine image into during his high school years. Furthermore, being the captain of his football team and victor of the Ebbets Field championship game, the teenage Biff becomes the pride and the only source of comfort and compensation for Willy Loman’s emasculative job as a salesman.

Charley, who is the neighbor of the Lomans happens to be a salesman too. However, Charley achieves great success in business and in family life unlike Willy who fails simultaneously at both aspects. In the play, Willy regards Charley as “not a man” because he simply cannot handle tools to construct a ceiling (44). When comparing Charley with Will whom he thinks of himself as a great builder, the truth that Charley is actually at the shorter end does not disaffirm his prevail over Willy in the capitalist world. Another person who sails through the capitalist world unhindered is Charley’s son, Bernard. In the scene where Bernard comes in and reminds Biff to study for the Regents, Willy calls him a “pest” and an “anemic” (33). He also states that Bernard can never be as successful as his two boys in the business world with his good grades in school. These deteriorative remarks about Bernard sum up Willy’s perception of Bernard being only an unmanly bookworm. Similar to his father, Bernard still proves to be a successful lawyer even though he is not masculine enough by Willy’s standard. In a nutshell, the portrayal of Charley and Bernard as more effeminate men and yet gained success shows the playwright’s attempts to make a crucial point to the audience that capitalism is a feminine system.

To some extent, we can hold that the reason capitalism strips the sense of masculinity off the characters, is due to the oppression of their superiors. Regardless of the context of this matter, either the narrative or in reality, the domination of the superiors over their employees is inevitable and as a matter of fact, it is one of the distinguishing features of capitalism. Subsequently we can draw assumption that these oppressed men counteract against the superiors in order to redeem their senses of masculinity. Death of a Salesman exhibits this phenomenon and explains itself through the roles of Willy and Happy. Aware of his predicament, Willy’s boss, Howard fires Willy without giving him a second chance. Willy’s attempted compromises by willingly to receive less pay, and even resort to continue as a travelling salesman fail to court Howard’s sympathy and changing his mind. Willy be shamed into anger, in turn yells back at Howard. As another instance, Happy complains to Biff, “…and I have to take orders from those common, petty sons-of-bitches till I can’t stand it anymore” (24). His father’s reaction towards Howard made insignificant in comparison to Happy’s behaviors. Happy says that “sometimes I want to just rip my clothes off in the middle of the store and outbox that goddam merchandise manager” (24). We can see that he attempts to release his oppressed masculinity represented by his desire to rip off his shirt, and pay back at the capitalism by outbox his manager. Moreover, Happy seemingly sleeps with his superiors’ women. He confesses that,
“I don’t know what gets into me, maybe I just have an overdeveloped sense of competition or something, but I went and ruined her, and furthermore I can’t get rid of her. And he’s the third executive I’ve done that to” (25).
Willy and Happy’s “revenges” signify a form of redemption of their so-called pride and masculinity long lost to their superiors in the capitalist system.

Coming back to the central question: Is it necessarily true that man’s success and his sense of masculinity be mutually exclusive of each other? Or should the query be that the pursuit of wealth is not the sole thing in a man’s life? “No man only needs a little salary”, Death of a Salesman summarizes itself with the quote, and undoubtedly intends to present the flaw of this economic model named capitalism in play in reality (137). However, giving it a second thought, we can still see that men like Donald Trump can be successful and wealthy in life, and yet be masculine to fire celebrities in the boardroom. Therefore, the capitalist system may not be posing any burdens to these American middle class men after all. In fact, the fact that they subconsciously position themselves as the “emasculated capitalist workers” can be resolved, given that these men fully realize that the question of masculinity and femininity all lies within perceptions towards life. The identity crises in American middle class men as shown in Death of a Salesman in a way is self-imposition as a result of their lack of adapting to the capitalist world. Hence, if Donald Trump can be masculine and wealthy at the same time, why can’t a salesman?

Spring Break Resolution

突然Spring Break想做很多东西
1. 看完Angels in America,然后仔细分析。(电影版真的很好看,尤其是那坟场的画面,壮观到...)
2. 为我那两首词谱上曲子。不过在这以前得先买把吉他...
3. 计划辩论队计划Spring Quarter的事情。有想过:
a. 继续苦求中文系,让我们附属于中文系
b. 找学会。觉得UCSO应该是不会收留我们的,可以考虑跳槽CCCS。虽然我也不是很喜欢CCCS,不过至少它们有的是效率,而这是UCSO没有的。
c. 咱们自立门户。这是与其拖拖拉拉,不如趁早注册。
d. 是该和郭姐姐找李老师谈谈了,世辩有没有得去还是谁去都还是未知数。
4. 读physics, spring跟他EM掉
5. $50EM中文..hehe...搞不好就是一个Chinese minor...
后来加上:
6. Prepare CV
7. Update Resume
8. Internship-现在把目标放在GAB和Nestle

后记:本来在筹谋一件事,不过现在决定不做这件事了。Plan terminated.
有人搞政治会被政治搞回,
马华总会长究竟花落谁家,
拭目以待!!

一巴Ham落去hor你Len啊!

如题,
现在想Ham几个人,
第一个是居林-万达巴鲁区国会议员
希望Ham了他就会醒过来
要么就悬崖勒马
要么就放下屠刀,再来补选
不过我真想相信这些都是公正党在盘算的东西

如果有补选的话
真可惜我不再居林
就算能cast postal vote
我也还没注册啦!!
不然我21岁就能投票了啦!!

再来
还想Ham多一个人
这个人...就是这个人

老翁,祝你好运

真的是小看老蔡了,
还以为这个过渡期他已经干不了什么,
所以就索性放下屠刀,
和老翁一人让一步。

怎知现在又突然辞职,
还一次过和7个中央代表一起辞职。
这样一来连同老廖那一班,真的已经有充足理由来一个新党选。

在想,老蔡到底什么葫芦里面卖什么药,
这株墙头草到底还有什么议程?

好,就假设真的有新党选,
谁会去竞选党主席?蔡细历还是廖中莱?真的要放长双眼...
谁搞的鬼?你知我知啦...
最后真衷心祝老翁好运...

Oh how I miss the days with the 414s

有惊无险

“我没看见他”

虽然没有撞到身体,不过我那时候已经傻了,直接用手顶她的车,现在手还是感觉怪怪的...
总结是,

就看这个产品进得到Final吗,
不过我老实说,

想通了...舒服...

Prajnaparamita Hrdaya Sutra (Very nice version)



A nice version indeed...

The aftermath - Of the Malaysian Identity

"Malaysian Chinese"
Is this noun be used no more?
Apparently, we called ourselves "Malaysian Chinese" rather than "Chinese-Malaysian"
Is this to due to the fact that we put more emphasis on the "Malaysian" than the "Chinese"?
Or is that simply because of the difference between American and British English?

"I am Malaysian, but I'm Chinese"
Why do we always have to add that latter part of our self-introduction?
Is is really that important to distinguish ourselves from other groups of people in Malaysia? Maybe...
But the point I'm trying to make here is,
is this issue of identity the thing that tore us apart all these years?
Besides the color of our skins, the different language we speak,
And the different religion we embrace?

Our race is predetermined,
But we can choose our ethnicity
If that is the case,
What then is the our ethnicity?
What then is Malaysian cultute?
What then is the Malaysian people?

"One Malaysia"
Does One Malaysia only to possess One Culture?
Should One Malaysians only to speak One Language?
Should us only be called True Malaysians after we lost track of the ancestors' journey?
What then should Malaysians be like?

There are only questions posed
And more questions to come
There is no answers here
For these answers are only to be discovered by ourselves

心情 星晴

“Wang a girlfriend, but I'm enjoying the single life so far.."

我的橘子呢?

剧场终于落幕,
期盼已久的女主角终于如愿以偿,
犹豫已久的男主角也终于紧抱美眷,
剩下一个小“车里飞”在台上找着橘子,
这一蓝橘子到底在哪里?
有人看见它被人抢走了,
有人说它就在后台,是我不肯离开这个舞台,
我自己继续在台上说:
我的橘子呢?

很多人看过了[九·维]说我心情很好,
很多人莫名其妙的说我最近的心好像有向着哪里似的。
各位,
如果我真的让大家有类似的想法的话,
我想澄清的是,
那只是很纯粹的开心。
有时是真的开心,有时是因为EMO所以开心。
试问,我何来个目标?
我现在归心似箭,所以心有方向也是向着那在马来西亚的狗窝。

我忙Product Development,
我搞辩论,
最后得到的是什么?
好像都回答不到第一个问题...
我的橘子呢?

这段日子的[九•维]

看回这些日子的帖子,
发现[九•维]上的文字好像和以前有点不一样,
现在的东西加了很多废话,还有很多别人的八卦,
最重要的是,好像少了一些深度。

是不是因为我最近少上《大马今天》,
所以就少了很多“大做文章”的时候?
是不是因为最近常常是一个人的,
所以就少了很多意见交流的时候?

每个人写博有不同的原因,
有些人的部落格就是一本E-日记本,
有些人写部落格纯粹要自娱娱人,
不过我写博的原因……应该算是为了把所想的每一样东西都记录下来…
还记得我之所以开始写博是因为Tan KH很random的一句话,
她说:“我看你做完东西了就好像整天在想东西这样,如果是想东西的话,就把想法写下来。”
咦,不去想还不知道原来TanKH对我的影响是那么大…

不过老实说,
写什么都好,
不管它是深的还是浅的,
总之,你在[九•维]上看到的东西都是我认为我应该去说、值得去写的东西。
这些东西或事情可能纯粹是我曾经思考过的东西,
也可能会出现小品,
更重要的是,我写得出来的往往就是要告诉你的东西,
就是要和你分享喜悦、EMO和对一些事物的解读与诠释。
不管是那种都好,
希望以后写的文字能够再进步些,
东西能够再有内容些,
最重要的,
随身带的草稿纸要再多一些。

杂雪札记

样子很拽的北京大哥:“How good is your Chinese?"
马来西亚华人:“你和我说中文我就和你说中文。”
北:“讲和听都可以?”
马:(无奈地)“嗯。”
北:“广东话?”
马:“会。”

我说马来西亚人,你们不说自己不是马来西亚人,其实你们要充当个中国人还是不难的呀!学不了那“北京儿腔儿”,也可以说自己是广东人啊,而且相信你们不会比广东人差吧。
突然要变成矛盾体了。领悟了一套解释大马华人去争求华教的用意,原来精通三语(如果粤语和闽南语算得话就五种吧)是那么了不起的。在大马个个都是这样什么,来到不同地方就真的起了差别。

你忙,他忙,我也忙,大家都很忙。不过你忙也忘不了曾经的温柔;他忙也放不下眼前的情仇;我忙却很难下手。

我的梦想在坚持;我们的梦想在包容;社会的梦想在改革;国家的梦想在繁荣;世界的梦想在同一。
问题到底出在哪里?还是我们的梦想本身就是问题?

最近发现这个cycle又要开始了,还是说已经进入了cycle的phase 1?
真的不能在进这个cycle,因为上个cycle的impact太恐怖了,恐怖到我自己都没有想到会受这么大的影响,不过最恐怖的地方在于这个影响还是voluntary的那种,这才叫人geli。
脱离这个cycle的原因不是这个cycle不好,而是我感觉真的有点腻了。
再说,再进cycle的话我不干脆制造我自己的一个cycle?不过这之前先解决一下我那个一直忍不住放肆的难题。

又放肆了...家维,要把持,要记得目标,要...要......阿弥陀佛...XD

十分钟看看我能写多少

首先,今天早上起身我是估计会有好消息的,
不过刚刚看过人家的脸色,
我就不敢开口问剧情了,
也不用去问啦,
要我知道的自然会跟我说。

现在开始存钱,
到了Break就可以买一把属于自己的吉他了,
要几时玩就几时玩,
歌几时有灵感就及时写。

可能可以计划一下Spring break要到哪里去,
可以考虑去找锦健,
Purdue就留midwest games吧...

发现自己好久没上《大马今天》了,
可能是这个学期真的比较忙吧...
不过发生了什么事还是懂的,
有时候有想法也变得很懒惰上来写。

公正党好像就近出现了一些问题,
所以国阵就来乘胜追击...
安华阿,看好你的人啊,
冠英阿,就忍忍吧...
民联阿,争气阿...

最后,说爽的一句:猪头事件里,大家都是猪头!哈!!

提醒我

一个人提醒我
等我忙完这些东西过后
一定要分析两样东西
1.东方不败和绣花针
2.FF10的剧情

突然对这两件事特感兴趣...XD

张悬



原来是你哦...

错觉

看来日后写博的时候用词要再谨慎些,
因为原来写了这么多竟然给大家产生错觉...

都在,却不在

(就允许我说最后一次吧...)

明年应该真的是一个人住了,
明年又要过回到那种日子。
对阿,大家都住South,又如何?
现在谈恋爱的,明年继续谈他们的恋爱;
现在等着谈恋爱的,明年(不对,是春季)也开始谈恋爱了;
现在搞暧昧的,明年可能也会谈恋爱了;
现在想收回覆水的,明年或许会再次复合,就简称谈恋爱啦;
我咧,
没得搞恋爱,没得搞暧昧,搞什么好?搞回EMO?

说给你听吧

谁曾经喜欢过你,
尽量去猜测他想你怎样,
有五成准已经很不错。
谁又曾经嫌弃过你,
就先问问自己他到底讨厌你什么,
或者,是有别的原因?

我来扪扪心,
我们想照耀他人的信心到底哪里去找?
我们想脱离单身的教训应该从何开始吸取?
我们想快快乐乐做个正常的人的毅力到底在不在?
我们想光明磊落的行事,你,是的,就是你,又会怎么看?

小时候我们可以很天真,
就是最纯朴的那个自己,
现在成年就需要去做戏,
人家说不用太顾忌,
可是我就往往忍不住去介意。

我有的东西很多人有,
但人家有的我未必有,
就说,
人家有爸妈兄弟姐妹,我有;
但我还没送过花,
还没初吻还没说逗人的话,
更没有苦恋一个她,
有的时候就装没胆说怕怕。

说到这里,
你,是啦,就是你啦,觉得怎样?
不过这样那样又怎样?
说来说去,都还是要演完这场戏,
现在看戏的人就多,要找一个陪你演戏然后一起讨论剧本的人?
难咯…

这怪梦 - 越想越geli

这篇打算用很浅、很直接、很马来西亚的方式去写。

也不懂是搞什么?
连这种梦都有本事发。
是日有所思吗?回想一番再加以分析,应该是...

有人哭了,
还哭得很够力,
然后有人也哭了,
然后一切东西都变得很清楚。

昨晚这个梦其实给了我很多的感觉:
1. 一个大男人样子很拽很强,也可以哭到不懂像什么酱啊...
2. 原来我以为一个已经不见的东西,它一直都还在,只是这么久以来我看不到而已,害到我一直要找回它。
3. 自己的一些思想和感觉应该是弄清楚了

梦啊梦,
你来得很突然,内容也算geli,
不过老实说....
还是不说了....(保留一下个人风格...XD)

觉民一家亲

I don't know why,
but just thinking of you guys back home,
Ah...it just made my day!!!

星期二胡言几句

我跳的舞一样很烂,一样需要练习,
可是就是找不到人练习喔...
昨天明明有练习的机会,可是我选择睡觉,
原因只有很简单的一个...呵呵...

看到佩颖FB上的status:单身又怎样?
单身又怎样?
是没有错的,不过单身久了就绝对有问题...
只不过家维我要脱离单身的日子可能还久着的了,
毕竟现在要不单身的...说先决条件显得过于肯定了些...就说是充分条件吧...
充分条件就是要有外在美,
而家维我正好就缺了这一块...

江嘉宇在social dance的时候:"你真的很矮咯..."
“跟ah beh跳的时候啊......然后跟你咧.....”
我想:小姐,我懂我矮,不用提醒我的....

时下的女性就不能把评分标准稍微改正一下吗?
好让我有一个目标去追逐,
我没有外在,但是可以很有内在美的嘛...
就像cheekong一样在增值自己....
不过cheekong可以做到的我就做不到的....
因为他要做的有可能达成,我要达成的有了一定的局限,或者说几乎不能达成?

如果每天的明天都是今天的昨天

首先,
感谢老妈十月怀胎
感谢爸妈二十一载养育之恩

再来,
感谢各位的捧场
感谢各位MOMO没有房间也要开youtube让我唱
感谢anson和alexa陪我对唱
感谢cheekong和mandy的蛋糕
感谢mandy的“苦尽甘来”
感谢郭姐姐的蛋糕
感谢郭姐姐和yaying丰富的一餐
感谢大家给与那么快乐的一天
感谢大家当我那么好的朋友

郭姐姐说还有半个月后还有surprise?
分析一下半个月后有什么事情会发生...
新春?还没到阿...
情人节?关我啥事啊...
觉得是和辩论队有关...不然就是UCSO...
世辩的邀请函到了?是的话就好,因为这才是我最想见到的...
山穷水尽了...不猜了啦...

We were catching butterflies,
Have we not some sense of direction?
Why don't we just all sit down and talk?
That would make things easier...

吹蜡烛的时候给自己许下三个愿望,
奇怪的是
我竟然忘了说:希望今年脱离单身生活

二十一岁了,
感慨岁月无情,
唯一值得的是.....我终于有资格投票了....

Of a tainted pair of jeans

It's only been a couple weeks I had two pairs of jeans from the trip,
and guess what?
One of'em is dirty, tainted by a mark of blackness,
an aftermath of a noble yet unnecessary cause.
Nobody asked me to clean the huge trash can,
but I just did anyway.

I don't think I can wear them anymore,
I mean can't wear them to work.
But you know what,
I've been reluctant in trying that other new pair of jeans,
setting it aside at that corner of stillness.

Sorry I can't wear you guys,
should have left you two at the store eh?
The thing is I work a lot,
and I do things that are not told, but it does, sometimes irritates you two, i admit that. But I just can't stop my nature, I just got to do what I got to do, or at least what I think I should do.

But hey, I still treasure these pairs of jeans,
Well, besides the fact that I have a limited array of pants,
they are really, really nice.

无题

翁诗杰总是整天被人误会,
巫统要整死他,
马华也要拉他下台。

正如翁诗杰一样,
很多东西我看不过去,
我选择用文字去表达。

这一篇不打算放任何标题,
不管今天是写爱情小说还是科幻小说,
就让有心人自己对号入座。

Flying in the face of customs.....SO?

星期日的凌晨 – 夜梦惊醒

我们人可以很矛盾,要别人照顾,自己却不懂照顾自己。报仇?报仇的代价是伤害自己?那叫报仇还是玩火自焚?人家哥哥自己都不管,那个被拜托的人又何苦?我这个事外人更不会自找麻烦。

不过还有一种更不懂自爱的人,
就是那种中过一次招的人,两个星期后还是心甘情愿中招,中了招就一大队骂人的话,不过骂的人也只有那一个。我,也是一个事外人,同样也轮不到我发言,所以在在这里自high。这个人,曾经和我很熟,不过现在我感觉不太认识这个人,她也一直在让我不认识她。然后其实也感觉到她也好像要证明些什么,应该是要证明给另一个他知道,没有他,她过得很自在,没有他,她变成熟了吧,虽然这一切都带自欺欺人之嫌。

其实当这个DUO散的时候,范围更大的TRIO或四个的架构其实也跟着撤了。

父母不及好朋友,好朋 友不及旧情人

当A还爱着B,然后B应该也还爱着A的时候…..
还是不说了,反正现在B是跟C在一起的,不管是真的也好,做戏都好。那如果是做戏,就希望戏假成真。至于那个A,有一个D会照顾她的。所以说很多东西是否由此至终没有改变,真的没有关系了。这个Z可以表达的话只能说到这么多,毕竟和A的关系一天一天在变质。

EMO也分很多种,
就是想说,有些人EMO可以去伤害自己,有些人EMO,自己一个人EMO就好。

辩出不一样的感觉

先以感谢的话开篇立论~~

首先感谢珈瑛、Mandy、曦旻,
感谢你们这段日子的努力,才有昨天的那么成功。
虽然是出了很多状况,然后UCSO又…
总之你们就是最好的…

然后还有感谢文昊和黄璐,
也感谢你们的努力,虽然我们是败了,不过我觉得由于状况实在太多,
所以是情有可原的。

再感谢伦腾、陈思逸和孙茂栖,
感谢你们让我知道原来我比较适合当诸葛亮,
当了张飞上场杀敌,还倒在你们面前啊!哈哈!

哦,怎么可以忘了感谢shuwei和weipu,要不是你们怂恿我买那件衣服,我昨天怎么有那么好的状态上场!

虽然拿不到最佳有点失望,不过还是服了文昊,毕竟他的话还是比较有内涵。

最后让我来总结陈词,
感谢大家再给我辩论生涯写上另一段篇章,给我大专生活点上我想要的色彩。向世辩三努力!!!

表里不一

今天看过黄执中和胡渐彪的王者之战,
果然是代表“情辩”和“理辩”的两个最强的人物,
题目是什么我不懂,
不过就是说人能不能表里不一之类的。

谈起“表里不一”,
就让我想起我和很多人的不同。
我觉得我这个人很不会做戏,
而不会做戏的人是不适合玩政治的。

不过我部落格只有一个,
我讲废话在这里,
我发泄情绪在这里,
我发表意见在这里,
什么都是这一个地方。
我不像一些人,
一个人用上好几个部落格,
讲废话的一个,
感觉心情的一个,
然后又写其他东西的一个。

“要写就不怕人家看,怕人家看就不必写,怎样都要写的话就手写日记吧!”
这句话是我上个星期三晚上讲的。

很多人可以表里不一,
可是我爽就爽,不爽就不爽,
就说我不会做人吧.....

把矛头指向他们就对了

《基督教堂被火烧》
大马竟然也会有这一天,
我自己虽然不是基督教徒,
不过对我来讲,这是不再是可恶那么简单了。
站在一个非基督教徒马来西亚公民的立场出发,
因为一个“阿拉”,
就让大马人的愚痴立即现形,
纳吉所谓的《一个大马》不攻自破。

这样的事情发生,
第一件事应该做的是什么?该说什么话?
..............
.............
把矛头指向一个单位说:“UMNO encouraged this to happen!"

我说的语气听似讽刺了点,
不过这不铮铮是事实吗?
纳吉本身在还没出事之前就不阻止穆斯林示威,
也和间接去鼓励示威有什么分别?
就算巫统不是主导,但它也绝对脱离不了关系。

我只是在想,
这些“烧教堂”的事件到底是带政治目的的,
或许纯粹是穆斯林的无知所造成的一场笑话?

Confessions of a Malaysian student in the US

Saya, Yeap Jia Wei, sedang melanjutkan pelajaran saya di Ohio State University yang terletak di Columbus, Ohio, Amerika Syarikat. Pelajaran saya ialah sains and teknologi makanan dengan minor sains nutrisi.

Situasi di Negara Barat adalah amat berbeza, terutamanya di Amerika Syarikat, tidak kira politik, ekonomi mahupun sosial. Dalam bidang politik, kita boleh memerhatikan perbezaannya dengan jelas sekali bahawa Malaysia merupakan negara yang bermonarki perlembagaan manakala Amerika Syarikat sebuah negara republik. Perbezaan juga dapat diperhatikan dalam sistem partisan di Amerika Syarikat antara parti Demokrat and Republik. Sugguhpun sekarang politik di Malaysia makin hari makin berkecenderungan kepada system partisan, kecanggahan ideologi masih kelihatan antara pelbagai parti komponen.

Seluruh dunia sedang mengalami kegawatan ekonomi yang teramat teruk sekarang. Jadi, keadaan di sini tidak banyak beza dengan keadaan di Malaysia.

Dalam bidang sosial, tidak dapat dinafikan bahawa Amerika Syarikat kini meraikan presiden berbangsa hitamnya yang pertama yang baru-baru ini bergelar pemenang anugerah keamanan Nobel. Realitinya yang kaum minoriti hitam dapat bergelar presiden sememangnya tidak pernah dialami di Malaysia. Namun saya amat yakin yang Malaysia akan dapat merealisasikan perkara sebegini untuk membuktikan bahawa kaum majoriti mahupun minoriti dilayan kerajaan dengan sama rata. Nescaya impian ini dapat dicapai and rakyat Malaysia dapat hidup mesra seperti di sini antara kaum Putih, Hitam, Amerika Selatan, Asia dan lain-lain.

Apabila kita mengatakan tentang budaya Amerika Syarikat, apa yang kita tonton dalam Hollywood adalah benar dan dapat menceritakan situasi yang tepat di sini. Namun saya hendak kalian memberi perhatian kepada kemesraaan penduduk Amerika Syarikat. Rakyat Malaysia terkenal dengan kemesraannya. Saya percaya yang kedua-dua negara dapat belajar sesame sendiri dan nescaya kita dapat memperoleh pelbagai faedah.

Kebanyakan pelajar di sini tidak kira pelajar tempatan ataupun antarabangsa bekerja separuh masa bagi mengaut sedikit sebanyak wang untuk menampung kos kehidupan. Jadi cara-cara untuk menggunakan masa dengan sepenuhnya adalah amat kritikal bagi memastikan masa untuk mengulang kaji pelajaran adalah mencukupi. Pelajar-pelajar di sini termasuklah saya akan membaca bahan-bahan yang bakal diajar di kelas sehari dua sebelum kelas tersebut. Cara ini membantu kami untuk lebih memahami ajaran pensyarah. Dengan lebih memahami bahan pelajaran, masa untuk mengulang kaji dapat dipendekkan dan masa yang terlebih itu dapat digunakan untuk bekerja atau hanya untuk merelakskan diri.

Kesimpulannya, belajar di Amerika Syarikat merupakan suatu pengalaman yang amat luar biasa. Dari segi politik, ekonomi dan sosial, jurang perbezaannya dapat diminimakan dengan senang. Namun percanggahan budaya Timur dan Barat tidak dapat diubah dalam sekelip mata. Tanpa was-was saya berpendapat bahawa Amerika Syarikat sememangnya jauh baik daripada keadaan di Malaysia sekurang-kurangnya dalam ketiga-tiga segi. Walaubagaimanapun, saya tetap tidak dapat melupakan budaya Timur yang menjadi megahan selama setahun saya belajar di sini.

P.S. All thanks to Mr Then Jun Xiang for a miserable Thursday spitting out rotten Malay which I used to pride of. Now I know the exact meaning of 流水不腐,动也.

猛虎不及地头虫,不是猛龙不过江

就不相信一个人的日子是过不到的。
就算多难熬都要熬过去。
突然也想一个人,
什么大家一起的念头...还有可能发生吗?
不是我不想打进这个市场,
问题在于这个市场根本不容许我的存在。
这两个臭皮匠,
这回算诸葛亮输你们,
不过不是诸葛亮逊,
只是他孤军作战,
没及你两条地头虫。

芝城之旅 - 总...总结 (with 后记)

糖与代糖的代号,
糖尿女郎的战斗,
就连做营养专家也管不着的。

这八九天的旅程,
体会了很多不一样的东西。
其中一个就是糖是出不了它的甜的,
糖不甜,那就根本不是糖,
如果我们不想吃甜,就不会选择吃糖,
既然选择吃糖,就不怕糖有多甜,
不过最大的因素还是我本身血糖就是比较低的。

发现书卫这一圈之间的感情已经很是绝后了,
其实我向往的只不过是这样,
这也就是为什么当人家问我干吗还要回国的时候我会回答大家
“我的一切都在马来西亚”
道理其实是一样。

发觉自己很愚蠢,
因为一通电话,
我当了一晚白痴。
那通“受人所托”要我做点事情的电话,
真的....
或许可能当时头脑有点不清醒,
不然在普通的情况底下,
我是不可能有任何质疑的,
顶多只是会为不该发生的事,捏造一个原因,
让它发生得有道理一些。

我上飞机之前给自己设下几个目标,
几项算是达成了,
其中有一项算是我自己要求证的一些东西。
求证的结果是我不愿意看到的,
不过结果真的那么重要吗?
这求证的过程相信已经抵补一些恶果,
我相信是,结果真的不重要了。

oh, last but not least,
我的丑不关头发的事...

后记:经历我想要的过程,暂时躲避令我很sien的人,啊!夫复何求!

总结心情 芝城之旅

"Can't believe anyone"
让我觉得好可笑的一句话,
就因为这句话我把自己当白痴看待了。

我很想把上面的那句话改成
“Trust people worthy of your trust"
为什么?原因很简单,
就凭我叶家维平时看人的功力。
叶家维容易被看透,不代表他不会看透人,也不代表会看透人的人不会被看透。
正如珈瑛说过的,看东西往往不必去看透它,
不过我说,看透东西是一种练习,所以看透东西是没有错的,可以把东西看透了未必需要让人知道,
有时糊涂一下也未免不是坏事。

陪太子读书就陪太子读书,
虽然书童学得东西不比太子多,
不过这对书童来说已经很足够了,
因为这次读书让书童有不一样的体会,
什么体会?
就是绑东西可以有很多种方法。

刚刚梦醒领悟一个很妙的比喻,
G先生:令人发胖的糖,让人有短暂甜味,所以会越吃越多,当吃的人胖的时候就一发不可收拾。
B先生:代糖,零卡路里,吃爽的东西,明明知道没有益处的东西还是会想吃,因为不会胖。
情况:因为小姐吃多了糖所以得了糖尿病,后来换吃代糖情况好转些,这几天放纵自己吃几天糖。
K小姐:只要甜味,真正健康的别选还是会找,不过暂时性不能吃糖的她,代糖是她最好的选择。

看到酒后的心声

有些话是该说的,
不管用了什么途径;
有些话是不必说的,
因为说了也是于事无补。

在这种情况下,
这种做法不是错的,
那种做法也不完全对,
很多时候,很多事情,很多后遗症还是因人而异的,
所以我们又何必在意这一点点小细节,
因为相信这些小细节对整副宏图来说是影响不大的,甚至没有影响。

所以很多东西,还是随波逐流,顺其自然吧。
