What The Hell

 
What the hell is wrong with those Olympic dudes? You can’t snub a girl because she doesn’t have ponytails, doesn’t have straight perfect set of teeth or doesn’t prance around like a bunny on heat.
 

“The reason was for the national interest,” said Chen Qigang, the ceremony’s musical director, in a state radio interview. “The child on camera should be flawless in image, internal feeling and expression. … Lin Miaoke is excellent in those aspects.”

You mean the other poor girl you (Yang Peiyi) or in fact every average looking human in China is flawed? … No? Well, that seems like the message i’m getting.

What the hell is wrong with Malaysian politics. I’m bored with the drama. I don’t even bother to read the news nowadays. Lies all lies. Drama all brainless drama. Boredom. Don’t they get it we don’t blardy care about their business anymore? Wtf

What the hell is wrong with banks? Why they have to close on Saturdays? Companies should have additional leave days at least once a month called “Banking Day”.

What the hell is wrong with me? I am so angsty. I need Happy Pills but all i got is Panadols. Wtf.

Olympic 2008 Aftermath

 
It’s 12.58am, i’m tired and bored as hell. Why? Coz the Beijing Olympics Opening Ceremony was a disappointment and poor Kobe is getting depressed since we forced her to wear an E-Collar. She just sits there with her pity looking eyes staring at me, afraid to move even an inch. I feel so dreadful and guilty for putting her through this *gulp.

Sigh… back to the Olympics ceremony. I can’t believe i’m saying this but it was a bore. The fact that the narrating was in B.M. and the narrator had little idea of what was going on since they spoke Chinese at the ceremony (bloody hell who ask them to broadcast it over at RTM1??!! Wtf?!!) didn’t help either. The ceremony was a drag with everything going on at a slow pace. The story telling almost put me to sleep. I’m not very man fa *wakaka!

I was like “Yamn… ok lar, it’s all very pretty and nice special effect. Sure got something a bit more ‘gempak’ wan… wich it’ll come damn some lar!”. But nothing came. Maybe i expected too much lor. More than halfway throw the show, the only highlight i got was identifying the 200++ country flags -_-”.

However, the fireworks were fantastic and the Olympic torch lighting blew me away. I definitely understand why the Chinese kept the ending a secret. I salute the guy that was dangling on wires, hovering above the stadium, pretending to do the torch relay. Awesome!

Camping in Front of Tele

 
The Opening Ceremony for 2008 Beijing Olympics is tonight. I’m so, so excited. I’m a sucker for Olympic Openings. Won’t miss it for the world. The ceremony is on 08:08:08pm today which is 08/08/2008. It’s so funny. Those Chinese are really paranoid about the mythical numbers huh? LOL. I bet China is gonna do something really memorable this time around.
 


 

Checked the newspaper today. According to the TV Program page, there is only live telecast of the ceremony on TV1. Wtf?! I guess it makes no difference which channel it is broadcasted on but just pressing the ’1′ on the remote control make me feel disgusted *wakaka! 8tv should have taken the live show instead. Then it’ll really be ‘ong’ >> like 2008 Olympic on 08/08/2008 at 08:08:08 by 8tv.

People Fleeing Over Flood and Landslides


Another tragic disaster strikes again. Soon after the Myanmar people suffered (i should say still suffering due to idiocy of the militant) from the lashes of Nargis Cyclone, this time major earthquake hit China. Death toll is already up to 28,881 and another 198,347 injured, i could only imagine how many more are still buried alive or even dead left un-found under the debris and slabs of concrete.

It’s already 72 hours since the tremors and rescue efforts already had extended to foreign aids surging in to help. That says alot since China had expected to be able to cope by themselves till recently. They do have the man power but it seems time is not in the waiting game.

Now it seems that the worst is not over. People are fleeing the epicenter of the quake in fear of flash flooding and landslides. Concerns over damaged dams and rising water have caused a stampede.

This events (China earthquake and Myanmar Nargis Cyclone) have left a deep impact on my mind because the mass victims punished by Mother Nature. It seems that Mother Nature is making a statement… the hard way. Mother Nature is letting us know she’s in charge. I just have that foreboding feeling that more will come.

Whatever it is, i am praying for all the victims of this tragedy and hoping for the best. Kudos to the rescue teams and those who had done their part in the rescue effort.

Nargis Cyclone Vs. Junta – Which Is Worst?

Everyday i would check out the news about the disaster in Myanmar. Everyday i would get frustrated and angry reading about the poor victims of Nargis cyclone receiving no help from the junta. With the death toll raising (28,00 yesterday) and about 1.5 million people at risk of death, the military is still reluctant to allow help from foreign experts.

Myanmar people is already in deep trouble before the cyclone, now they are even worst off. The people are starving but the military is still exporting rice by the truck load to foreign countries. Countries like the U.S have to force their way in to provide help. It’s so sick it’s almost funny. They are sitting on top of their filty pile of money watching the people die.

Personally, i doubt that all the donations and aids are going to benefit the Myanmar people. I don’t trust the government with the money or the aid. Someone should give the general a tight slap.

“Wake up you idiot!Your so call road to democracy is going no where. People are not fooled! The money and your country’s resource would run out one day you blardy idiot! “.

Arghhhh… i’m so frustrated. It’s not the cyclone now, it’s the negligence of the military that is causing the major catastrophe.
