The Raven

2011-05-27T20:09:00.007+08:00

Here's a poem called The Raven. It was written by Edgar Allan Poe and first published in 1845. It tells of a talking raven's mysterious visit to a distraught lover, tracing the man's slow descent into madness. The lover, often identified as being a student, is lamenting the loss of his love, Lenore. Enjoy.

I have included two video's of this poem being read, at the bottom of the post. One is James Earl Jones, and the other is Christopher Walken. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you......

THE RAVEN

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
`'Tis some visitor,' I muttered, `tapping at my chamber door -
Only this, and nothing more.'

Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak December,
And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor.
Eagerly I wished the morrow; - vainly I had sought to borrow
From my books surcease of sorrow - sorrow for the lost Lenore -
For the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels named Lenore -
Nameless here for evermore.

And the silken sad uncertain rustling of each purple curtain
Thrilled me - filled me with fantastic terrors never felt before;
So that now, to still the beating of my heart, I stood repeating
`'Tis some visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door -
Some late visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door; -
This it is, and nothing more,'

Presently my soul grew stronger; hesitating then no longer,
`Sir,' said I, `or Madam, truly your forgiveness I implore;
But the fact is I was napping, and so gently you came rapping,
And so faintly you came tapping, tapping at my chamber door,
That I scarce was sure I heard you' - here I opened wide the door; -
Darkness there, and nothing more.

Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there wondering, fearing,
Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before;
But the silence was unbroken, and the darkness gave no token,
And the only word there spoken was the whispered word, `Lenore!'
This I whispered, and an echo murmured back the word, `Lenore!'
Merely this and nothing more.

Back into the chamber turning, all my soul within me burning,
Soon again I heard a tapping somewhat louder than before.
`Surely,' said I, `surely that is something at my window lattice;
Let me see then, what thereat is, and this mystery explore -
Let my heart be still a moment and this mystery explore; -
'Tis the wind and nothing more!'

Open here I flung the shutter, when, with many a flirt and flutter,
In there stepped a stately raven of the saintly days of yore.
Not the least obeisance made he; not a minute stopped or stayed he;
But, with mien of lord or lady, perched above my chamber door -
Perched upon a bust of Pallas just above my chamber door -
Perched, and sat, and nothing more.

Then this ebony bird beguiling my sad fancy into smiling,
By the grave and stern decorum of the countenance it wore,
`Though thy crest be shorn and shaven, thou,' I said, `art sure no craven.
Ghastly grim and ancient raven wandering from the nightly shore -
Tell me what thy lordly name is on the Night's Plutonian shore!'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'

Much I marvelled this ungainly fowl to hear discourse so plainly,
Though its answer little meaning - little relevancy bore;
For we cannot help agreeing that no living human being
Ever yet was blessed with seeing bird above his chamber door -
Bird or beast above the sculptured bust above his chamber door,
With such name as `Nevermore.'

But the raven, sitting lonely on the placid bust, spoke only,
That one word, as if his soul in that one word he did outpour.
Nothing further then he uttered - not a feather then he fluttered -
Till I scarcely more than muttered `Other friends have flown before -
On the morrow he will leave me, as my hopes have flown before.'
Then the bird said, `Nevermore.'

Startled at the stillness broken by reply so aptly spoken,
`Doubtless,' said I, `what it utters is its only stock and store,
Caught from some unhappy master whom unmerciful disaster
Followed fast and followed faster till his songs one burden bore -
Till the dirges of his hope that melancholy burden bore
Of "Never-nevermore."'

But the raven still beguiling all my sad soul into smiling,
Straight I wheeled a cushioned seat in front of bird and bust and door;
Then, upon the velvet sinking, I betook myself to linking
Fancy unto fancy, thinking what this ominous bird of yore -
What this grim, ungainly, ghastly, gaunt, and ominous bird of yore
Meant in croaking `Nevermore.'

This I sat engaged in guessing, but no syllable expressing
To the fowl whose fiery eyes now burned into my bosom's core;
This and more I sat divining, with my head at ease reclining
On the cushion's velvet lining that the lamp-light gloated o'er,
But whose velvet violet lining with the lamp-light gloating o'er,
She shall press, ah, nevermore!

Then, methought, the air grew denser, perfumed from an unseen censer
Swung by Seraphim whose foot-falls tinkled on the tufted floor.
`Wretch,' I cried, `thy God hath lent thee - by these angels he has sent thee
Respite - respite and nepenthe from thy memories of Lenore!
Quaff, oh quaff this kind nepenthe, and forget this lost Lenore!'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'

`Prophet!' said I, `thing of evil! - prophet still, if bird or devil! -
Whether tempter sent, or whether tempest tossed thee here ashore,
Desolate yet all undaunted, on this desert land enchanted -
On this home by horror haunted - tell me truly, I implore -
Is there - is there balm in Gilead? - tell me - tell me, I implore!'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'

`Prophet!' said I, `thing of evil! - prophet still, if bird or devil!
By that Heaven that bends above us - by that God we both adore -
Tell this soul with sorrow laden if, within the distant Aidenn,
It shall clasp a sainted maiden whom the angels named Lenore -
Clasp a rare and radiant maiden, whom the angels named Lenore?'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'

`Be that word our sign of parting, bird or fiend!' I shrieked upstarting -
`Get thee back into the tempest and the Night's Plutonian shore!
Leave no black plume as a token of that lie thy soul hath spoken!
Leave my loneliness unbroken! - quit the bust above my door!
Take thy beak from out my heart, and take thy form from off my door!'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'

And the raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting
On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door;
And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon's that is dreaming,
And the lamp-light o'er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor;
And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor
Shall be lifted - nevermore!

I did not expect to see an orangutan on a Saturday morning

2011-05-16T21:18:00.005+08:00

What I did on Saturday

It started like any other normal day.

A Friday. The 13th of May. Another average day. Tutorial day. Classes, back nap, the normal stuff.

I woke up from my nap at 6pm. Which was late compared to the times that i usually wake up.
But it what really happened, is that my day REALLY got interesting after midnight.
We (Triven, and I ) were bored as hell that night and we had no idea what to do. We spent close to 30 minutes just THINKING of something interesting to do that night. Either something to do or somewhere to go. Which was when we planned to go hang out at his new place over in Tasbi 2.

Then got a call from Esmeth saying that he's coming over and that we'd all just meet in Pa'Im (name of an old dude who has an AWESOME roadside lepak stall in Medan). It was after a teh tarik kurang manis and an hour later that we decided to go to Bukit Lawang.
So we met back at my place and talked the plans out. We'd have to take a small trip to Triven's new place to get a motorcycle helmet for myself, but before we could leave my place, it started to rain. HEAVILY. So we waited. For an hour or so before the rain finally let up. Then we got the helmet, and took off.

We started our journey around 3 a.m. and got there around 5.30 a.m. taking only two stops on the way there. The journey to Bukit Lawang was a little crappy because of the holes in the road and the lack or any proper lighting. Also, unlike Brastagi, where one can predict where the road is going to go, you can't for the roads to B.Lawang. It was a cold journey. The cold chilly air and fog made the night riding really challenging but fun. It felt like my face was gonna freeze and fall off my head. It was still dark when we arrived so we parked the bikes and headed for a stall for some breakfast.

After breakfast, we started to explore the area. Me for the second time, because I had already been there. We walked and walked till we found the cable bridge over the river. The three of us went up to the highest possible point of the bridge and watched the sunrise. It was amazing.

The time now was 6 something a.m. We went exploring the area further. Then about 15 minutes of walking later, we came to a river crossing that could only be made my a boat. It wasn't a huge crossing, just one about 5 meters wide, but you needed the boat because the river current was pretty strong. That crossing lead to the orangutan conservation area. We didn't cross it just yet, because feeding times were from 9-10 a.m. So we just checked out the river first.

The waters were so clear and the sounds of the water crashing upon the rocks was very calming. When the time got to 8.30, the rangers opened the crossing into the conservation. It was more of a hollowed out log than it was a boat.
We got to the other side, and there was a video briefing about the area. Before the video could finished, the rangers called us (Triven, Esmeth, and me, and a couple of other western tourists) to follow them because it was time for the orangutan feeding. I dunno about the guys, but I was pretty damn exited. There was a small hike through some jungle before we got to a little clearing, which was fenced up with some bamboo, and behind that fence was a platform between two trees. We all waited behind the fencing to see how it was going to be done.

Of the 4 rangers that were with us, 2 of them went to the top of the platform (which was level with the viewing area) and sat down. There was one carrying a backpack, and the other ranger was carrying a pail. Then sat down, and one ranger started knocking the platform with a rock that was already there at a steady pace. It was slow and continuous, for about 5 seconds. A few loud knocks every 10 seconds or so. I presumed that was the "breakfast call". Then, after about 15 minutes of waiting, there was a disturbance of branches from the trees behind us. We could hear it but see nothing, and so we waited. The rusting of the branches got louder and louder and finally, I saw something orange up in the trees. It was a real live orangutan! What was more surprising is that this one, had a little baby orangutan holding on to it!

It was such an awesome sight to see. The mother orangutan crawled down from the trees and made it way to the feeding platform through the bamboo fence (which was about 1M high). It was balancing on the top of the fence walking slowly towards the clearing where the feeding platform was. The orangutan passed less than 2 meters in front of me! It was sort of a rush seeing something like that, that close to you. Then the orangutan climbed up the feeding platform to where to 2 rangers were and were fed bananas and milk. Yes milk. That was the contents of the pail. The funny thing was, they fed it the milk with a metal cup and it drank the milk properly! Which was amazing to see of course. The little one then slowly left its mother and went swinging from a tree like, well like an orangutan would. Then the mother and the baby left but there was still more food.

Then the ranger did what he was doing before. Took the rock and started knocking the platform again. This time we waited 10 minutes for another one to come. But in those 10 minutes, we all watched the first one slowly, climb tree after tree and slowly disappear into the jungle. Then another one came shortly. This one was a little aggressive because it was making a lot of noise with the twigs before we saw it. It was breaking twigs and rattled the branches before we saw it. The rangers told all of us to back off a little from the viewing area. So we did, and the other orangutan came down from the trees. This ons was much bigger, and it had another baby too! Even the baby was a little bigger than the previous one. This one while climbing down kept looking at us after taking a few steps. It looked kinda "tak puas hati" with the rest of us there. This one was a little more entertaining to look at. Then after eating, it climbed the nearest tree and was eating the remaining bananas. The funny part was then the mother orangutan slapped the kid and it gave a short whelp. hahaha...

⁃ After the feeding we climbed back down the trail and back across the river and went for breakfast.
⁃ Nothing really interesting happened here. Just some regular old nasi goreng. Then we decided to go for a little walk. Esmeth went back after 15 mins of walking. So it was just me and Triven. We went for a hike to see just how far the trail would go. It ended at a flying fox platform. Or so I'm guessing thats what it was. So then we walked and discovered some awesome spots on the river that would awesome on photo. Sadly, none of us brought a camera with us.

I was so desperate to take a dip in the river that i bought myself a pair of camouflage shorts just to save my jeans from getting wet. We then went for a swim in the river. Believe it or not, there was a spot that was deep enough to dive from a rock ledge. I attempted some flips but were unsuccsessful. Perhaps I need more practice. Haha. After the swim, it was lunch time, and after that we began the tiresome journey back to Medan.

The return journey was much MUCH worse compared to when getting there. The potholes, the cracks in the road, the holes, the sand the dust, the diesel smoke, the grit, it was a NIGHTMARE. On top of that, it began to drizzle and rain a little, which meant that everything that was suspended in the air, now mixed with water was hitting us in the face, and being breathed in, and the best part was, I was the one riding the bike back. I had to endure that nightmare till we got to Binjai. Then Triven took over and rode the bike till we got back to my place. We got back at exactly 5.30p.m on Sunday. After talking a bit and washing off the "contaminants" on our faces, I took a nap. A LONG one. It was about 6.15 when my head hit the pillow, which was also the exact time I loss all consciousness.

I went for more than 24 hours without sleep on an almost massively epic journey that took less than 30 seconds to go from bored idea in the head to reality.

This is the crap that we get up to in Medan. Welcome to Indonesia everybody....

Joel out....

Friday, 13th May, 2011... Just another day...

2011-05-14T01:03:00.001+08:00

I typed this WAYYY earlier than what this post may suggest. But because of some issue with Blogger, it has caused me to post this one day late. So here it is....

This has taken a while, but i feel that i should get back on the blogging wagon. Some people have told me to just write down whatever comes to mind. They say it'll take some of the stress off. I'm hoping this does, otherwise, it'll be another pointless update at 3 something a.m.

Just write. Get started and let whatever topic come to you naturally they said. I'm doing that, and the only topic so far I can come up with is reasons to delay getting to the point because I haven't found one yet. Is attempting to be pointless really a point? or is it pointless? If you strive to fail, and you fail, does that mean you succeed? or did you fail? which one happened? Kinda like that.

I'm just typing out random nonsense to keep myself from staring into the abyss. I've been having a horrible case of insomnia for about a week or so now. This is me getting "creative" at lets see here... 3.17 am. I bet a lot of great things were done by many many great men somewhat around this time. Many new inventions, radical new ideas that changed the world, real life inspiring shit. But not for me. Oh no. This is just a medical student banging away at the keyboard trying to find the difference between acute and chronic bronchitis.

Which brings me to my next paragraph. Its going to be really short.

See? what did I tell you. < I typed this line twice. I don't know why. Really, i'm a troubled individual. Some of my friends will vouch for me. Why else would I be blogging at this UNGODLY hour, 5 paragraphs in and STILL no point of discussion!?! I need help. I do. Even my sister told me that on skype today when I introduced the "NYAN CAT" to her.

It was hilarious watching her freak out as the candy coated cat flew through space and pooped a never ending rainbow while going "NYAN" over a billion times in a wonderfully catchy but annoying pop-ish kinda song. It is now one of my favorite things. Along with a list of my many other favorite things, which include:

1. Pointing out to other road users to STFU with their damn car/bike horn
2. Waking up and seeing that its still dark out.
3. Thinking that there's no more credit in my phone then discovering that i've got loads left.
4. Letting a sundae melt so that it becomes a milkshake. (Which i like to call a Sunshake)
5. LIstening to Daft punk with the lights all dimmed down and pretending that I'm in some super exclusive lounge that only allows me as a member....

... and many MANY other things. I will update em from time to time. Just you be patient. There will come a time when all my random shit will be accessible to the world as an "archive of rubbish of randomness" on this blog. Honestly, i cannot see myself using this blog to post anything useful in the near future. Thats what i use Facebook for. Oh, that and Twitter. I love my twitter account. Every little pointless useless update i put out there on the internet makes me feel just a little more important. Like I'm some sort of undiscovered celebrity.

And there you have it. The regurgitated contents of my brain on a early Friday morning.
Maybe later today I will think of something more interesting to post. All my posts seem to be about not being able to post something. Weird. I'm starting to annoy myself with this. haha....

Have a great Friday everyone. I know I will. Saturday's a holiday for me! FINALLY.

Joel OUT!

2011-02-28T16:00:00.004+08:00

Whaaa?

2011-02-16T22:11:00.002+08:00

A new blog post. Really? Should I? I don't know if I should? Oh well. I guess here goes nothing.

I don't really know why I bother sometimes though. hahaha....

Some of you might realize that my "blogging style" is a little informal in typing. With all the "hahahaha"'s , the abbreviations and the slangs in place. I don't really care for proper sentence structure of spelling sometimes, I know I should though. I have at LEAST 3 frequent readers here. Maybe 4, but thats the max I think.

One thing that bugs me is having class on a Saturday. Like the one I just had just now. I mean c'mon la! Its a damn saturday!! I don't mind the full blown torture of hell from Monday to Friday but leave the weekends out of this!

This post has no real agenda or direction so keep your fingers crossed that this one actually leads somewhere like the last one. Like most of my other posts, I'm randomly just banging away at the keyboard.

Lately I've been watching a LOT of re-runs of old shows. Shows that include How I Met Your Mother, The Big Bang Theory and The Vampire Diaries. Re-runs make you understand the show better every time. I think.

I think I'll leave you with something that will make your reading here worth your while.

Here's a video called : I'm a Banana.
Enjoy :p

Another idiotic excuse for simple incompetence.

2010-12-29T11:41:00.013+08:00

Y'know what, I've just about had it with this shit.... SO SHUT THE HELL UP AND LISTEN...

Recently, there's been a football match between Malaysia and Indonesia. It was the Suzuki cup finals. The first leg.... and we won 3-0. I who am not a fan of either team, had to sit and watch the match because my cousins wouldn't change the channel. So I watched.

After the match, (as expected) there were some sore losers, and a LOT of them for matter a fact. All blaming the Indonesian national team's loss on the Malaysian fans who brought laser pointers to the stadium to distract the visiting team.

Now lets analyze this LOGICALLY (which is something that is a difficulty to some people).

A sniper, yes a SNIPER can only get a proper and accurate aim at target with these conditions,
-Being STILL
-Being calm
-A proper weapon (which has to be both reliable and efficient)
-Having a LOT of experience and skill

Now lets compare with the present conditions. The Malaysian fans.

First point is being still. Now I can vouch for every Malaysian when I say this, that NO Malaysian is still during a football match. The only time we're still is when there's a penalty shot, and even that lasts for only a fraction of a second. Which proves that nobody in the stadium had even the slightest chance (if any) on allegedly "shooting" the players and thus distracting them.

The next point, is being calm. Which refers back to being still. Same story.

Then there's having the "proper weapon" which I can tell you is total bullshit. The lasers used (if used at all) would not have been expensive high-grade laser pointers or even Helium-Neon lasers used in labs, because THOSE are the ONLY lasers capable of giving off even any significant amount of disturbance. Even if they did use lasers, they'd be the useless china made one dollar lasers which last no longer than a pot of boiling water. So no, we didn't have the capabilities to bother your beloved national squad.

The next point I would like to debate is the sheer distance of the fans and the players. Have you ever tried aiming a laser pointer at something that is more than 5 feet away and manage to do it accurately!?!? Here's another example, have you EVER been able to understand what the hell lecturers are pointing at with a laser pointer during a lecture on a slide that is a little too detail? No. Don't freaking argue with me. The answer is NO and you know it.
So imagine how close to IMPOSSIBLE it is to aim a tiny little useless China made laser pointer which is no powerful than a hamster on drugs, at 11 RUNNING players of a fully trained (professional) football squad from a distance of over 20-200 meters!!!!! Also, even if they did manage to aim, everyone knows that the only possible way to get distracted by a laser beam is to LOOK RIGHT AT IT!!! WE ARE NOT CATS!!! Humans do NOT get distracted by little beams of light on the floor!!!

And even if there was a barrage of lasers shooting aimlessly at the football pitch, how the hell did the Malaysian players manage to not get distracted and score 3, yes read it again, THREE goals, while Indonesia scored NONE!?

Once again, I imply you to use LOGIC the next time you would like to make up an excuse of your national squad not being up to par. One that is at least viable to a kid who is 4 years old.

Also, for the second leg, if you are going to be the person who parades and gloats when your team wins and say that Indonesians are better than Malaysians, or if you lose and make up another pointless excuse and start burning flags and shitting in your hands and throwing poo. I pity you.

Or if you're like me and and just enjoy the result of the match for the 5minutes after it ends (win or lose, no matter the team) and then go for a coffee after wards with a couple of buddies to laugh it all off, I say to you, bravo.

The 900

2010-12-12T06:10:00.005+08:00

Many of us wonder, why the hell was Tony Hawk so damn famous? What was his suddenly leap into godlike status? Here's your answer.

The 900

The 900 is a 2.5-revolution (900 degrees) (2 and a half spins) aerial spin performed on a skateboard ramp. It is considered one of skateboarding's most technically demanding tricks.

Tony Hawk, one of the most successful vertical pro skateboarders in the world, landed "The 900" at the 1999 X-Games after ten failed attempts. It was past regulation time but, as one announcer said, "We make up the rules as we go along. Let's give him another try." None of the other skaters protested. Hawk twice landed on his board, but it flew out from under him. When he finally completed the trick, his arms windmilled and his hand barely grazed the ramp.

Nonetheless, he rode away. He was awarded 1st place in the "Best Trick" event despite going over the time limit. At a later X-Games, Hawk landed the trick again, this time during regulation time. The 900 was the last trick on a wishlist he had written a decade earlier. Some other tricks on the list included an ollie 540, a kickflip 540, and a varial 720

Here are the clips....

The very instant he landed The 900. History was made, and Tony Hawk took his place as the God Of Skateboarding

I am Downloading and watching....

Fear and Destruction: Complex occurances of the Human nature.

2010-11-16T22:36:00.012+08:00

Please, if you have the time, send me some feedback through Facebook. Send me a message in my inbox. I took a while to write this, and I would love to hear your thoughts and opinions as well. That would really cheer me up good too, since writing this post has put me in a little bit of depression. haha. Thank you and enjoy the post :)

Today I would like to talk about two things. Destruction and fear. There's nothing really cheerful about this post and they're both topics on negativity, so if you are the type of person who would not wish to listen to someone talk about negatives because of some displaces sense of self heavenliness then I suggest you leave this blog now. If you wish to read on because you honestly want to listen to another's opinion then I gladly invite you to stay. In fact, stay, sit and have a cup of warm hot chocolate while your at it (or maybe you prefer soy juice if your the health nut type).

I was studying the whole day. Yes, I kid you not. Really, I seriously went Eintsien today for no apparent reason. Good I guess. Keeps my mind fresh. Along with the studying came the unbelievable amount of stress and frustration. I do take breaks like a normal person every now and then. As I was reading the slides on fetal and infant development, I remembered about the event of Little Albert and the White Rat, and so I just scribbled down the word "fear" on one of the blank pieces of paper on my desk. (You'll understand why later when I get to that).

Continued studying, and reading. One of the slides explained more on the development of the growing baby/infant. Every single thing they mentioned, every stage of development, seemed to tally with how a baby would progress in growing and developing in real life. Things such as, when they can speak, when they crawl, when they show emotion, and even more complex things such as, pointing at something to show, getting attention by calling, showing preference and so on and so forth. One thing they forgot to mention is, how kids and babied are severely destructive. Absolutely nothing is mentioned on how a kid, or why a kid or when a kid becomes a little demolisher. Bringing me to write the word "destruction" down for me to think of later. I continued studying soon after scribbling on the paper on my desk again.

At me tea break, as I was sipping a glass of Lipton Yellow Label Tea, I glanced down at the paper on which I always scribble random things on (to clear my head) and I saw the words "fear" and "destruction" which I had wrote earlier. Then it dawned on me, these are two (very significant) aspects of the human being's personality that are almost never talked about or discussed. Which is strange because everyone seems to think that because these two topics are so negative, they cannot be discussed or debated thus hindering our understanding of this and slowing down our progression as an intelligent species on this Earth.

Fear.
What is it? Is it an unpleasant emotion caused by the belief that someone or something is dangerous? Fear is an emotion at all? Emotions which we all know, are volatile and unpredictable. How can we understand that fear is an emotion? Is fear based on logic or feelings? What is the line that divides them both? These are all questions sometimes too difficult to wrap your head around, but you can if you break them down.

Firstly, an example of fear as an emotion. You feel it. At times, fear feels you. Fear being an unpleasant feeling makes you want to run away from it. Leave it. Do anything you can to get away from it. Like somebody who is afraid of cockroaches for example. Those who fear them move away from cockroaches because naturally they will. Then there's logic. for example, why do we not speed on a wet highway? Is it the fear of crashing or the simple logic of avoiding an accident? Does fearing a crash and avoiding one because it is a hassle make the two the same? I can't tell you for sure because like you, I am not able to tell where one ends and the other begins.

Feelings as I've said earlier are volatile. One can easily manipulate things that are volatile however, such an idea is not a good one.. Since feelings can be actively "moulded", I think its about time I told you the true story of Little Albert and the White Rat.
This was in 1920. Little Albert and the White Rat.
John Watson was a psychologist from that era who wanted to test the idea of whether fear was innate or a conditioned response. "Little Albert," the nickname given to the 9-month-old orphan that Watson chose from a hospital, was exposed to a white rat and a host of other things for two months without any sort of conditioning. Albert was allowed to play with the rat and showed no fear of it. To try to induce fear, Watson would make a loud sound behind Albert's back by striking a suspended steel bar with a hammer when the baby touched the rodent.

Needless to say, poor Albert burst into tears when he heard the noise. After this was done several times, Albert became very distressed when the rat was displayed.

The poor tyke started to generalize his fear response to anything fluffy or white (or both). The most unfortunate part of this experiment is that Little Albert was not desensitized to his fear. He left the hospital before Watson could reverse the effects of his conditioning.

In other words, Albert was scarred for life. Which even though is cruel makes sense really. Fear to a certain extent is caused by certain activities which have significant influence on the human mind.
This in a way explains why I was so damn scared of lion dances every Chinese New Year. When I was a kid, the loud noises, big freaky looking erratic moving fluffy huge headed animal thing was something I would NOT want to go near. Fear for me when I was young came from something that I did not understand, but I'm not the only one.

The whole human race is bound by the same belief that we fear what we do not understand. THAT is unarguably, an innate response. You could be the most brilliant person on the planet, something bad or weird or strange beyond your understanding happens, you first response WILL be to fear. Its nature. If we didn't, the human race would not have survived that long. It is a natural survival instinct.

So if it is natural? Are all humans condemned to fear throughout their lives? Could we control it?
It if were proven to only be a conditioned response, would we be able to control fear?

Here's my definition of fear. I think that fear on paper can be defined as : A past experience which is somewhat unpleasant that somehow in some form, is mentally related to the object of fear itself.

Sayings like "the only thing to fear is fear itself" sounds a little corny but one just cant seem to find another way around that. I know I cant.

You've heard people say, don't make fear part of your life. Fear will be a part of everyones life wether they like it or not. The trick is not to control the fear or extinguish fear, but to DISTINGUISH and act on it.

Destruction
Another brilliant unavoidable human trait. We are natural at it. It all starts from the time we smash our little building blocks of wood in anger. Yes, childhood. Has anyone tried to manage to seen a kid that is non destructive? No? Some say yes. What is that you say? By keeping him suppressed his entire childhood? Wouldn't that make him a destructive adult?

We have struggled with this paradox for generation after generation. Humans love. Humans also destroy. Its what we're good at. There's no doubting it. Countless scholars have said that if you are good at something, then that is your purpose. Could this be entirely true? Is the purpose of mankind to destroy until there is nothing left?

Of our many traits, destruction seems to be one of our strongest. Not only physically, but mentally and emotionally as well. From the beginning of time until now. Humans have been a destructive lot. From the time we're born, till the time we die. This is one of the most depressing thoughts that has ever crossed my mind.

Take this case for example. I've been studying the whole day, I feel frustrated, so I decide to take a break and install some useful apps for my pc. There is a DVD which such apps are installed and I have it. I put it in, run it and try installing. Nothing works. Not one application could be installed. I knew it was the DVD's fault because the damn thing got jammed in my pc's DVD drive, and wouldn't come back out. After 10 minutes of desperate clicking and troubleshooting, it finally gave up and came out. My anger and frustration was at a boiling point so I decided to get rid of the DVD once and for all, just before I dropped it into the dustbin beside my desk, I glimpsed the word "destruction" which I had written down earlier. I spent some time thinking about humans and destruction and decided to test it out. I wanted to see how the act of destruction would affect me as a person. Then I remembered I had two copies of the same disc.

So what I did was, took the useless DVD, and broke it down the middle. Just to see how I would feel applying destruction to life. When I heard a loud "CRACK!" I immediately stooped. But the DVD did not break in half. Thanks to the incredibly strong printing on the front, It only cracked and bent in 3 places. This got me a little annoyed because I hadn't achieved my set goal in breaking it down the middle. I could've just thrown the disc away, but instead, I chose to continue my little psychological/physiological experiment.

I used my anger and frustration at the disc (for not working, for getting jammed in my pc, for jamming up my pc and even for not breaking properly) and i went on for two whole minutes. Even I was shocked. Two whole minutes were spent turning the DVD from a perfectly shaped disc to bits and pieces of plastic, paper and film. I used my hands, twisted, bent, and broke the disc into small reflective pieces. I even folded some thick paper, bent the discs halfway, put them in the paper and put the folded paper containing the remnants of the DVD under one of the legs of my chair, and stood on it. Cracking breaking and shattering every piece I knew was there till I decided to stop. When I decided that the experiment was over and I had to evaluate it, I poured out the broken pieces onto my notepad. What was once a DVD, is now 4.7 Gigabytes of a shattered plastic mirror.

I took the time before I took these pictures to evaluate how I felt. I felt empowered. I felt good. I felt energized. I could feel the adrenalin surging through my veins and muscles and an increased heartbeat which did not subside for another 5 minutes. Destroying something had brought a physiologically positive feeling to my body. Which if though of properly, is depressing.

Is this why we destroy? To feel good? To feel that we are better than something or someone? Because we're good at it? I mean look at the state of the world. Everywhere you look, its chaos, mayhem and destruction. Yes there is love everywhere but calm and quiet love has been silenced by the noise and racket made my modern mankind's destructive habits. Yes sometimes we destroy to create, but bottom line is, we still destroy.

Global warming, war, famine, the plundering of our earth's precious natural resources relentlessly? To destroy is Its what we're good at. I am not condoning violence, but the evidence is inevitable.
What do we need to do? How can we better ourselves? Are we doomed to tear each other apart till there is nothing left?

All these questions I have placed before you I sadly cannot answer. I simply do not know how. More importantly, I do not know if I should.

Maybe I'm just confused or a little misguided, and I'm sorry, but I cannot seem to prove in words how not to look at this in a depressing way.

The only consolation I can think of is that you hold a firm belief in The Golden Rule, that "one should treat others as one would like others to treat oneself" and also from Luke 6:12 - "And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise."

.... and if you have lost your faith in mankind like I have so many times and you cannot find consolation in a verse such as this, then God help us all.

The Five Kinds of drunk. According to me.

2010-11-09T10:27:00.005+08:00

Note : This post was typed 2 weeks ago on a thursday morning, Around 1-2 a.m.

"I'm so tired
I haven't slept a wink
I'm so tired
My mind is on the blink
I wonder, should I get up and fix myself a drink?
No, no, no"

These are the Lyrics from the Beatles song "I'm so tired" from The White Album

Class in the morning. Lab till 1. Fell asleep in the afternoon and didn't even realised it rained cats, dogs, monkeys and ferrets.

At 5, went for cell group, then dinner at 7.30.

I'm exhausted and feeling so darn sleepy. But if i fall asleep now, I'll wake up at 3 or 4 a.m. and that'll ruin everything. So I'm gonna stay awake a little longer and tell you about MY theory of...

THE FIVE KINDS OF DRUNK!!!!!

After close and much observation, I have come to a conclusion that there are five types of behaviour that a person will exhibit when under the extreme influence of alcohol.
The 5 are :
1. Blur
2. Aggressive
3. Horny
4. Emo
5. Happy/funny

The Blur
This kind of person who which after consuming one too many glasses of alcohol will totally lose all sense of feeling and thought. They are now as useful as a rock or a sponge. Everything you tell them will either fall on deaf ears, of fall on full on attentive ears but processed by a brain will less thinking power than a carrot. They are incapable of performing tasks which require coordination. One of the more popular examples are idiots who are The Blur, attempt to dive home. Bad idea. If you have friends who are The Blur, I suggest you sober up and take them home before they accidentally so something stupid.

The Aggressive
This type of character is a handful to handle. One because if the increased aggression and tendency to act on feelings. I do not know how this affects the female population, but for guys, I have noticed an exponential increase of "machoness". This is especially dangerous of the said moron is confronting another parton at the club or bar about the gayness of the shirt that he/she might be wearing. The Aggressive can also sometimes turn on their friends who get in the way of proving their "machoness". You might get yelled at, pushed, or even punched by said individual. The best way to attain control of The Aggressive is to feed their ego but turn its attention from whatever is instigating it. Best to limit the drinks for this one. If at all possible, at the point where The Aggressive shows its face, there should be no more alcohol or at least no means to attain more of it.

The Horny
I think we all have friends who fall under this category. This is by far one of the most embarrasing categories to be in or to have friends in. The reason is obvious. When someone becomes The Horny, he/she has a tendency to in the very basic sense of the word, wants to F*** anything that can be f***ed with or anything that moves. This kind of person is also a bother to be associated with because they can get YOU in trouble as well. There is no remedy for this one, You'll just have to wail till the affected person becomes sober or liquor him/her up till they pass out.

The Emo
For some unknown reason to science, alcohol has the ability to unlock the portion of the human mind relating to feelings. Sometimes its a good thing. Sometimes, not so. There are two extreme's to this case in which a person might experience. The first side is the side of positive emotions. Emotions such as joy, gladness and thankfulness are just some of the common human emotions one will see here. Over hugging can be expected. One might also express one's over thankfulness for having great friends/buddies/mates. The other extreme of the major side effect is negative emotions. Emotions such as hate, jealousy, anger, sadness, grief, guilt and remorse, The common ones are sadness, guilt and remorse. Everyone who has a friend who is The Emo knows that this one just sucks the life out of the party. Remedy? Sit with him/her, listen advice, distract from the emoness.

The Happy/Funny
You might be thinking that this one is the easiest to handle right? Then again, you might be wrong, There is one important thing to remember with this one. LIMITS! Yes, one can be too happy and funny. Especially at a bar/club. This is because, there are other people who are part of these 5 categories at these places. Always remember that! You don't want a happy person spoiling everything. There is no remedy for this condition. Just keep an open eye out. Thats all.

If you have any further information that might help the research of the alcohol intoxicated human being, please contact me. Together we can make the world a much safer and fun place to drink in.

Cheers! (Literally)

Paramore came down,
Why did I not go to watch?
I was in Medan.

:(

Would I have bought a ticket?
Of course I would have,
But I wasn't there.

x_x

I'm sure the show rocked,
I might download it,
If I can find the link first.

o_O

I wished I was there,
Jumping and cheering like mad,
I wasn't, so sad.

:'(

Brick by boring brick,
Ignorance, decode,
I would rather hear them live.

:)

To Hayley and gang,
We'll still be waiting for you,
Come back soon okay?

A Blurry Monday

2010-10-18T13:44:00.000+08:00

Okay, I'm going to be completely honest here. Its now *checks clock* 5a.m. and I cant sleep. I was woken up at 4.30 a.m. by irritating noises which i hear on the mornings that I'm not fortunate enough to be in a deep enough sleep in. I wish I could get back to sleep now so badly. My class starts an hour later than it usually should on Mondays, which means an extra hour of sleep, but what am I doing? Being woken up by morons who not only have no sense of timing, but bug the hell of other peoples timing as well. Oh yeah, there's also the asshole who comes every sunday at 6.30a.m. ON A SUNDAY and yells fish and squid repeatedly. WHAT IN HIS RIGHT MIND WOULD HE TRY TO ACHIEVE YELLING AT PEOPLE AT THAT UNGODLY HOUR!!!?? Would one even have the mood to go buy the damn fish with one bloodshot eye at that time on a SUNDAY morning?!

I needed my sleep. I was actually looking forward to starting the week because of my oh so pointless weekend of having nothing interesting to do. Weirdly, this was a Monday I was actually looking forward too.

Every monday is like this. Every monday is a new story. Some brilliant way to start the week always happens on a Monday such as this. Everyone's got a Monday story. I'm not the only one. If you don't have a Monday story, you probably begin your week on tuesday then, which means skipping whatever traditional Monday ritual that normal people usually do.

Blogging this early on a Monday morning is not considered a normal Monday ritual. This isn't me telling you what happened today, oh no. Far from it, its only PARTLY why I'm typing this. I'm actually trying to preserve my sanity as much as I can. Since I live alone and nobody is responsive at 5 in the morning for a little chat, I blog.

Did you know that besides dog, "bitch" is also the female representation for wolf, fox and otter? I didn't know that.

Oh yeah, one more thing. If that dumb idiot shithead of a rooster attacks me again for no reason, I WILL KILL IT by kicking it into the monsoon drain which i walk beside every day. I would like to formally make a pre-apologetic plea to all the animal lovers out there like my brother Joshua and my good friend Charisha. This just has to stop. I walk that path every day and I try me level best not to step in any of its droppings, not to trod on ANY patches of rice that is supposed to feed it, I even whistle a little so I don't startle the damn thing if I don't see him while I'm walking. The rooster keeps smacking my leg with its wing after making like some sort of a rhinoceros charge at me, but if that fowl tries to peck, or claw at me and/or if i bleed, that sonovabeech is asking for it. But I'll start by messing with its mind first, by eating a piece of fried chicken as I walk by it, y'know, just to show it I mean business. hahahaha..... I have killed his kind before in cold blood, I didn't like it and I wasn't proud of it but I WILL do it again if I have to.

God, I'm feeling so heartless, soulless and twisted right now.........

Avatar the LAST Airbender.

2010-08-15T17:43:00.003+08:00

::::::::::::::::::SPOILER ALERT::::::::::::::::::

However this isn't the kind of spoiler that would give away important scenes to the movie (although it will). No, this actually means that this idiotic movie itself is a spoilt waste of film, but I guess you already knew that.

But lets not get too much into that yet.

I've watched the complete series of Avatar The Last Airbender which was produced by Nickelodeon. I loved that show. Really, I did. Avatar is as exiting and as interesting as a cartoon can get. I'd even put it up there with Spongebob (and that's actually saying something). The book of water, earth and fire are just chapters in the story that no child or adult will ever forget after watching because of its amazingly crafted story line, exiting and funny characters and just plain old awesomeness make Avatar The Last Airbender such a heartwarming tale.

Now the movie on the other hand..................

IS...NOTHING...LIKE...THE...TV...SERIES!!!!!!!!!!
Honestly, what the hell was M.Night. Shyamalan thinking?!?!!
Its got a lousy and utterly pointless plot development, which makes even the fans from the series who KNOW what's about to happen to go "Wait, how the hell did they get here?" or "What the hell just happened?", so imagine the confusion of the crowd who hasn't watched the series who are unfortunate enough to be stuck watching this. Truly, world cannot begin to describe my disappointment for this film.

Then there's what I'd like to call the "Indianisation" of the movie. Hey, I'm not racist and I have nothing against Indians being in the top par of society, but come on lets face the facts here. Avatar is a predominantly Chinese cultured background series. (again, I'm NOT being racist here). It is very obvious that Shyamalan didn't want to cast anyone Chinese for any major role (maybe HE's being racist, I dunno)

The casting for the show is terrible. I mean absolutely terrible. They may not be bad actors but they sure as hell are the wrong ones for this movie.
Zuko (Dev Patel) is british Indian, Uncle Iroh (shaun Toub) is half Iranian or something, Azula (Summer Bishil) is half Arab half Indian, Commander Zhao (is a british dude born in Mumbai, Fire Lord Ozai is a Maori (so he LOOKS Indian), Sokka is played by the guy who plays Jasper in the Twilight movies (which sad to say is better than this), Aang is a white kid who knows taekwondo in real life, so I guess that helps. Katara is a pointless character in the movie. Princess Yue's character although is pretty, but is not the "Yue Prety" that everyone was hoping for, and one more thing, is it just me who noticed this or was EVERYONE in fire nation colony 15 Indian!!?!
Some really crappy story changes and scenes in this movie include:
-Sokka (which is probounced Sowhkar in the film) being the MOST SERIOUS character in the movie!
-Aang (which is supposed to have a slight E sound and can be pronounced as aeng when said ) is actually pronounced as aaaaang, and avatar is pronounced aaaaaaaaaaaavatarrr
-Not one sarcastic joke or comment from Sokka (that was at all Sokka-ish)
-Katara's mother is kidnapped and then killed.
-Aaaaaaang admits he ran away from home and then the ass smiles about it in the Southern Water Tribe Village. What gives dude?!
-Zuko's scar is a tiny tiny thing. Its more like a bruise and a scratch.
-Sokka and Katara's reason for leaving the tribe is to go save Aaaaaang's ass who was kidnapped by the fire nation (without the intentions of teaching him bending like they should)
-Uncle Iroh is thin, unfunny, is sooooo uninspiring when he speaks and doesn't mention tea till almost an hour into the movie!!! (what the hell?!?!) and there is no "Forgive my nephew" or "Priiinceeee Zuuukoo" "Lets have a cup of calming Jasmine tea" dialouge from him.
-Monk Kyatso is an athletic looking black dude, not a bald frail chinese man.
-Fire benders can't bend shit without a source of fire, and when they DO actually bend fire, they always do some sort of crazy idiotic dumbass ballet routine beforehand.
-Sozen's commet only gives fire benders the ability to bend fire from nothing, NOT give them awesome fire superpowers.
-During a fight scene with the fire nation, when 6 powerful earth benders do some sort of pathetic stomping arm flailing ritual in formation to kick fire nation ass, nothing happens. Seriously. Its just a pointless dance.
-Next to them is one other earth bender actually doing some actual bending. Unfortunately, the little rock which he bends moves with the same pace as a small running chicken.
-Any form of bending in the movie is mind numbingly slow.
-Aaaaaaang's airbending lags a little from his movements.
-Most of the fights involving Fire Nation troops involve Kung Fu and swords instead of fire bending.
-Katara gets the water bending scroll from Kyoshi Island.
-They all go to kyoshi Island, but guess what, no Kyoshi Warriors.
-Ozai has no facial hair besides eyebrows.
-Agni Kai is pronounced agnee keey
-Aaaaaaaang actually SUCKS at waterbending up to the point where he actually has to use it to save the day, then he's all powerful all of a sudden.
-Aaaaaaaang doesn't say anything to the Blue Spirit who gets knocked unconcious, he just leaves him in the forest.
-After kidnapping aaaaaang while he's in the spirit world, Zuko takes him into the city and hides out in a house to wait out the invasion instead of going all macho and braving the cold ice desert to wait out a snowstorm.
-The face stealing demon is replaced with aaaaaaavatar Roku's dragon.
-The Zuko aaaaaang fight is 80% kungfu 20% bending.
-Uncle Iroh is the only fire bender who can actually firebend from nothing.
-All fire bending troops including commander Zhao are scared stiff when they see this.
-There is no giant water fish creature at the end of the movie. Its just a huuuuuge wall of water.... which does nothing. It just goes up, waits a while and comes down the same way it went up without destroying ANY fire nation ships. But it does scare the whole bloody fleet enough to turn around and just give up the fight.
-Azula's face keeps twitching when her character is introduced at the end of the movie.

Wait, we're at the end of the movie?! Thank God!!!

This movie sucked. Big Time. This is THE worst movie I have ever seen. The acting is hollow, the dialogue is useless and the story is just plain bad. So much was changed from the original series to make this movie. Its almost like there was no effort put into the making of this movie. I'm actually starting to doubt if anyone from the production crew watched the series. Or was it just Shyamalan who didn't want to hear anybody's advice. I think the movie deal should have gone to producers like Jerry Bruckheimer (Pirates of the Caribbean 1,2,3, The Prince Of Persia: The Sands Of Time, Bad Boys 2) or Michael Bay (Transformers 1,2) or even Steven Speilberg, all of which are directors who actually realize the weight and the importance of the Movie Project that they undertake. Avatar has such a large impact on the global pop culture that a decision to make a movie like this, shouldn't be made lightly.

Shyamalan has ruined a perfect opportunity to make the perfect Series>Movie transition for a show, and also to give his already downward spiraling career new breath. Also, he has ruined the wonderful cartoon series which we all love so much. He reports saying that he has begun writing the script for the 2nd movie which is based on the Book Of Earth.

He's already shamelessly killed and ruined a perfect show and has already made this movie which is so damn bad. Fans of the series will probably never forgive him for destroying their beloved Avatar. I really do hope that this is, in every essence of the words The LAST Airbender.

Now I know how the Dragonball fans feel.

Has anyone stopped to wonder what makes the world go round?

The Beatles and the Powerpuff Girls say that love does.

Donald Trump as well as everyone else say that money does.

Issac newton says its gravity (the suns, to be more exact) that does.

Hamster Heatability Test

A small group of young physicists from MIT sought out to explore the understudied science of biothermoelectricity. For this test, three test subjects were obtained of the species Cricetus cricetus, labelled "Snuggles," "Hammy," and, a control subject, "Nibbles". The experiment was to determine the heatability of the species, by placing the subjects into a microwave oven. The results were, flamingly, in accordance to the first law of thermodynamics, which states that:

...One...

...Two...

...Three!

KABOOMSPPPLLATTT!!!

*gets hit by flying hamster debris*

The results showed conclusively that due to their high resistance to being held, hamsters do not stand heat well, but do make decent pets.

Kitty Kitty bang bang

2010-04-21T08:02:00.001+08:00

I know I should have typed this out earlier but I just didn't have the time y'know, with studying and all. haha...

So the story of the dead kitten goes as follows.

Was walking with Prins (one of my housemates) to uni when we noticed that there was a tiny little kitten no bigger than a bunch of banana's following this other student.

As we walked along, the guy the kitten was following came to a road which he had to cross since the Uni was on the other side. He tried chasing the kitten away so that it wouldn't follow him across. It decided not to follow him and walked along the road.

Then the kitten changed its mind and decided to turn sidewa.... splat!! crunch!!

*Dead kitten*

The moral of this story?
- Curiosity and EVERYTHING ELSE will kill the kitten.

This past week

Politics explained

2010-04-06T23:10:00.000+08:00

FEUDALISM: You have two cows. Your lord takes some of the milk.

PURE SOCIALISM: You have two cows. The government takes them and puts them in a barn with everyone else's cows. You have to take care of all of the cows. The government gives you as much milk as you need.

BUREAUCRATIC SOCIALISM: You have two cows. The government takes them and put them in a barn with everyone else's cows. They are cared for by ex-chicken farmers. You have to take care of the chickens the government took from the chicken farmers. The government gives you as much milk and eggs as the regulations say you need.

FASCISM: You have two cows. The government takes both, hires you to take care of them and sells you the milk.

PURE COMMUNISM: You have two cows. Your neighbors help you take care of them, and you all share the milk.

RUSSIAN COMMUNISM: You have two cows. You have to take care of them, but the government takes all the milk.

CAMBODIAN COMMUNISM: You have two cows. The government takes both of them and shoots you.

DICTATORSHIP: You have two cows. The government takes both and drafts you.

PURE DEMOCRACY: You have two cows. Your neighbors decide who gets the milk.

REPRESENTATIVE DEMOCRACY: You have two cows. Your neighbors pick someone to tell you who gets the milk.

BUREAUCRACY: You have two cows. At first the government regulates what you can feed them and when you can milk them. Then it pays you not to milk them. Then it takes both, shoots one, milks the other and pours the milk down the drain. Then it requires you to fill out forms accounting for the missing cows.

PURE ANARCHY: You have two cows. Either you sell the milk at a fair price or your neighbors try to take the cows and kill you.

LIBERTARIAN/ANARCHO-CAPITALISM: You have two cows. You sell one and buy a bull.

SURREALISM: You have two giraffes. The government requires you to take harmonica lessons..

bottom line?

Dont get involved in politics. Its a messy thing...

New houses, Chilles, futsal and sunshine

2010-03-28T04:24:00.004+08:00

Well its my brother Joshua's birthday today the 27th of March 2010....

Well..... it was when I started typing this....

Anyway..... sorry to all you people who have been coming here and finding nothing but a chicken suffed burger and a black background. Its just that all the ideas I have in my head which are meant for blogging are all forgotten by the time I get home or by the time I turn on my computer.

Many things have happened this past month. Many new things learned, many new experiences gained. Enough rubbish, now I would like to tell you all something. Yes I do blog, but not very often (as most of you have noticed). I try to make up for it by updating my Facebook status and my Twitter (yes I have a Twitter account) page as often as I can.

This past week, Ajib, Rex and me have been house hunting. Looking for a place to stay near to the uni isn't as easy as it sounds. We did manage to find one but still, nothing is confirmed yet. I hope I can get my own room this time. That would be nice :)

Here's some advice, NEVER eat chillies in a meal and go play futsal. Not my experience but still, not mine to give away either... right Ajib? (oops my bad).

There's also been a lot of rain and sunny weather lately. Its like they're playing tag with December's wind and no one is winning.

Ha ha....

Dammit is this one of these stories which I thought of?

I can't remember....

Some Dark Days

2010-03-17T18:48:00.001+08:00

Ring a Ring O' Roses,
A pocketful of posies,
Atishoo! Atishoo!
We all fall down!

"Ring a Ring O' Roses" is said to be a macabre parody on the horrors of the Great Plague. One of the first signs of the plague was a ring of rose-coloured spots, and the protection against this terrible disease was, in popular belief, a posy of herbs. Sneezing was taken as a sure sign that you were about to die of it, and the last line "We all fall down" omits the word,

"DEAD!"

Think

2010-03-12T08:10:00.000+08:00

I sit here. The cold air around me just sucks. Idiots. Don't they know they're just wasting time?
All just in their little bubbles of delusion.

Nothing makes sense once we all back now. Eyes judge, minds think. Words fly here and there.

Don't expect me to give you a reason for anything.

Day in day out. Its the same thing.

The headache

2010-02-25T23:36:00.002+08:00

I need a place to write all this down so I'm doing it here. Why? because I can, and also because I want to.
Must release frustration. Frustrated about many things.

But most of all.

I just have a headache.

Why DID the chicken cross the road?

2009-12-01T14:31:00.013+08:00

Suggestions by individuals:

Plato: For the greater good.

Aristotle: To fulfill its nature on the other side.

Karl Marx: It was a historical inevitability.

Hippocrates: Because of an excess of light pink gooey stuff in its
pancreas.

Timothy Leary: Because that's the only kind of trip the Establishment
would let it take.

Douglas Adams: Forty-two.

Nietzsche: Because if you gaze too long across the Road, the Road
gazes also across you.

Oliver North: National Security was at stake.

Albert Einstein: Whether the chicken crossed the road or the road
crossed the chicken depends upon your frame of reference.

Aristotle: To actualize its potential.

Buddha: If you ask this question, you deny your own chicken-nature.

Darwin: It was the logical next step after coming down from the
trees.

Emily Dickinson: Because it could not stop for death.

Epicurus: For fun.

Ernest Hemingway: To die. In the rain.

David Hume: Out of custom and habit.

Saddam Hussein: This was an unprovoked act of rebellion and we were
quite justified in dropping 50 tons of nerve gas on it.

Jack Nicholson: 'Cause it (censored) wanted to. That's the
(censored) reason.

Pyrrho the Skeptic: What road?

Ronald Reagan: Well,...................

Johnny Cochran: The chicken didn't cross the road. Some
chicken-hating, genocidal, lying public official moved the road right
under the chicken's feet while he was practicing his golf swing and
thinking about his family.

Camus: The chicken's mother had just died. But this did not really
upset him, as any number of witnesses can attest. In fact, he
crossed just because the sun got in his eyes.

...........................

And now..... some more familiar people......

Rex: TO EAT LA!!! PODA P#$%^K!!

Izwan: For 1 hour of CS

Triven: For faster internet speed!

Ajib: For more p%$#m@k ayam

Murali: The chicken went for futsal

Rammesh: Basketball la idiot!!

Murali: Sorry bro

Rammesh: Never mind bro, i forgive u.

Prins: The chicken go karaoke

Esmeth: To go to pangkas for dinner

Nabilah: To ask his friend to install game so he can play SIMS

Aslam: To eat pizza with Clement

Sucin: To meet a naked panda and tell him stories of how being a naked chicken is like.

Benyamin: To get season tickets to the Celics game next season

Ilyas: Cos he wanted to chill with some boilled "potatoes" and his "brothers"

Afiq: The chicken supposedly going overseas for a long time :P

Alan Andrew Michael: To check his Facebook, Myspace, Friendster, Hi5, Tagged... etc...

Boddah: ...................................................

Boris: For reasons which are so mangkuk even I don't understand

Charanpal: Dunno

Charanjit: Haha. What la u cha....

Charisha: Because he loved the other animals on the other side

Christy: To ask the KAKAK to adjust the microscope

Jaye: Simple. For fag.

Jenny: To use adobe photoshop to tag everyone

Kiran: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA.

Rubhini: :D

Veanu: Cause he saw something interesting that made him go "DEEEEEiiiiii!!!!!"

Wei Ewe: The chicken was being pointless

JOEL: ok here goes. its the best answer that ANYONE can give for this question. My answer
would probably change the world because its so damn magnificent!!! Its long but
I have to type quick as I didn't charge my laptop and the batteries might
die off at any tim .........................................................................................

Warning. virus detec....oiewtuiog;reweoi egaaaaa0109aaaaAAAAAAAAA

I hate having classes on saturdays. It takes the fun of having a weekend in the first place. Here I am sitting at the "PENDOPO" just chillin and onlinin'. Today's internet speed is so fast i'm actually updating my AntiVirus (that I dont need).

Waitin for the dentistry students to show up. Mainly Rex, Izwan and Dharamjit.

In the past week I've plugged in some of my indonesian classmates thumbdrives (yes, i use THUMBDRIVE. Not USB drive, pendrive or flash disk. I prefer it that way) , and surprise surprise, viruses. Some were so badly infected my comp didn't even wanna detect 'em.

If my Mac could speak, It would have probably said "Uh, nope. I'm not reading this, screw this, I've had enough". But thankfully today it did read and DELETE those Virusus (pointless of course).

Got money for that stupid fruit and wireless broadband but no kassu for Kaspersky, Norton and Avira? Comon la ppl.

I don't even need an antivirus but I still use one!

And here I am in the blirary. Wow. Desperate for internet.

Just another day at JB

2009-11-13T00:25:00.002+08:00

Why is the internet speed here so damn lousy!! Damn it!! Its like being in a boat trying to row with chopsticks instead of paddles. Seriously, this really sucks.

I read somewhere that Indonesia has the 7th largest Facebook community in the worls. 7th!! which means there are only 6 other countries which use Facebook more often.
Facebook takes ages to load because, at any given time, 3quarters of Indonesia is on Facebook either from the millions of BlackBerry's in circulation or the people in Cyber Cafe's all day and night long.

There are many many worms and parasites. This stuff scares me. Now i even think twice even if i wanna open a door.

There's just so many small living things!!!!

Ahh, it feels good to get my fingers cracking again typing on my dusty keyborard. Its been a while since i stepped in the puddle we call blogger and this time, I'm going to jump and stomp around in the puddle.

So I jut finished tutorial. It was great and it sucked. Great because I actually managed to talk without feeling the butterflies in my stomach (those dammed butterflies). Bad because I was nominated the leader for the session. Having people pick you as the leader then have them tell you what to do is a little messed up. Especially if everyone runs off at the end of the tutorial and leaves everything behind for you to clean.

Anyway, enough of rubbish talk. No point wasting my time talking about chimps who cant fly for shits. I now wanna say i'm humgry and yet i'm taking the time to do this. I was actually fuelled by the despise of my tutorial session when I started this post but now since I've vented my frustration to Aslam, I'm as cool as a cube ice in a cup of water in the freezer that has turned to ice.

There's gonna be a KKIM (Kelab Kebudayaan India Malaysia) AGM meeting today. Don't know what to expect.

Seniors have been parradin the juniors looking for votes which I find to be pretty funny. I believe that parading will get u nowhere if you're already campaigning to somebody who knows you. Doesn't really change their prespective of you if you asked me.

Honestly, I dont know who to vote for, so I'm just going there, gonna show my face, then after that cabut. Either for rugby or basketball. I haven't made up my mind on that yet.

Hmmm.... Until then, I'll be listening to Decode.

Medan

2009-09-18T18:03:00.002+08:00

Yes its been more than a month.

Yes i haven't updated.

Yes its been a while since anyone came here.

But since u are here, please do continue reading
.................................

Its kind of ironic how my first blog update on Medan, is on the day before I leave back from Malaysia.

Okay, for those of you who haven't had a chance to hit "refresh" on the web page of my life, here's what's been happening so far.

I've been in medan since the 23rd of october. My birtday was on the 24th. Yes yes, who hoo and whoop dee do, I had an Indonesian birthday. No cake. No song. Just an outing to town here with my aunt. Now enrolled in USU (universitas sumatera utara) for the medicine program, I am now gonna be stuck here for the next 5 years or so.

I'm currently staying in a place called Jaya Bangunan which is a shoplot building with 4floors of dorms. The ground floor is a home contractors store. They sell mostly tiles, cement and doorknobs.

My place is about a ten minute walk from the medical faculty which is pretty near.

I'm now running out of proper grammar so I'm just gonna simplify

BEING HERE IN MEDAN

Pros:
-Cheap pulic transport
-Cheap petrol
-Cheap photostat shops
-NOT dangerous for bikers
-Some friendly Indonesians
-No mosquitoes (very very very few at night)
-Clothes are CHEAP
-Batik is cheap
-Shoes are not so pricy
-Cyber cafe's are everywhere. Just like mushrooms in a forest full of rotting timbers.
-Cyber cafe rates here are half the price of the ones in malaysia (What I really mean is Penang)
-The streets here are clean-ish
- Internet speed here is bearable sometimes.

Cons:
-Bullshit weak electricity supply (sometimes)
-Frequent blackouts
-Some racist indonesians
-Dusty in the afternoon
-Chickens running around the roads which are the size of small cats
-Cili padi is in everything if you don't tell them not to add it
-People who are in offices are BLOODY slow at their work (except for the ones in banks. They're pretty quick-ish)
-We have a bloody curfew of 11p.m. which means they lock the doors from the inside after 11.
-Internet speed here most of the time just RUBBISH.

oh well, i guess we can't always have what we want.

I've been thinking of renaming my blog recently, then I realised that the number of people who read my Blog are probably less than the number of people who've landed on the moon in 1969 which i have come to believe is.... NONE.

Ah the moon..... The night sun. wonderful thing innit? Without it we'd have really boring tides (if any) and lovers would have to stare at stars all night which would be annoying if you live in Penang because there are hardly any!!! They're all blocked by the wonderful smog of the automotive farts here.

I'm up to no good nowadays. I'm flooding anthills. Gosh I'm evil.

Anyway, here's my theory on nothing............
.
.

Shocking isn't it?

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhhh!!!!!!!!! They Postponed my exam again.....

Aiyooooooooo............

GAH!!!

2009-05-31T01:20:00.002+08:00

Its annoying that when ur NOT on blogger, you get all sorts of crazy bloggong ideas that you think is gonna change the world but when you actually sit down at the pc.....BLANK......

I had a few ideas but no insprirations....... Still nothing........

You might be reading some weird stuff. Thats because I'm just putting down on the web whatever comes to my mind....

This has happened in many other blog posts i can assure you.

I've been listening to a lot of Sklipknot lately. I don't know if I should but I am.

I want an electric guitar. I don't think my good 'ol acoustic can take anymore abuse from playing Stevie Ray, Slipknot and/or Hendrix....... Its almost like i can feel his soul crying out in pain every time i go by the first verse of "Pride and Joy".

I've stopped playing so much of rock and moved to blues now. Dunno why though.

Blahg rahu banana gra guguuu la la la la......

My foot's numb.

...... oh great, now its asleep.........

My phone's been acting up. It just suddenly restarts on its own without even being touched!!
(I think its running on windows)

I've gotta bet my bike fixed. Its been sitting underneath my stairs collecting dust. Spiders have built villages there. Small hut-like things. Then they built housing estates, then condos, then cities, then an end came to it all like some "armagedon" shit when i chassed the cat who ran under the stairs when she freaked out, when a construction crew was working in front of my house.

Now the spider population is destroyed and no more of those inhabitants and squandering around my bikes. They've started again... Damn.

Now where's that darn spray?............

The LOL theory.

2009-03-05T19:22:00.003+08:00

'LOL Theory is a theory established by a number of the world's top scientists, most of them from Finland. In plain English, it says that you can remove all seriousness from a sentence purely by adding the word lol.

Some examples:

In our government:
-I have nothing to and am not affiliated with the girl Altantuya. lol.
(Najib on the lol theory)

-We might revert back to teaching science and mathematics in Bahasa Malaysia. lol.
(Hishamuddin on the lol theory)

-HAH!!!! Korek Korek Korek Korek Korek Korek Korek Korek. lol.
(Lingam on the lol theory)

-Shit, i lost the sungai siput seat!!! lol.
(Samy vellu on the lol theory)

In movies:

Ttansformers-

-Freedom is the right of all sentient beings. lol.
-We are autonomous robotic organisms from the planet Cybertron. lol.
-We must have the glases. lol.
(Optimus on the lol theory)

-I AM MEGATRON. lol.
(Megatron on the lol theory)

The Matrix-

-Mr. Anderson, we meet again. lol.
(Agent Smith on the lol theory)

-My name is Neo. lol.
(Neo on the lol theory)

-Have a cookie. lol.
(The Oracle on the lol theory)

Saving Private Ryan-

-Base, this is Omaha beach! come in!! lol.
(Tom hanks on the lol theory)

The Fast and The Furious-

-It doesn't matter if you win by an inch or a mile. Winning's winning. lol.
(Vin Diesel on the lol theory)

Batman Begins-

-Swear to meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!! lol.
-I'm Batman!!!. lol.
(Batman on the lol theory)

The Dark Knight-

-I'm not wearing hockey pads. lol.
-WHERE IS SHE?! lol.
(Batman on the lol theory)

2009-02-25T08:26:00.004+08:00

This is coming to mind as I go along....
We all need a reality check every once in a while. Everyone gets one in his or her lifetime.
I've been doing things that i haven't normally done in a while since i have the time now. Things like:
-Cooking lunch
-Gardening
-Cleaning my room
-Cleaning my house
-Cleaning up my closet....... no wait, that's a song....

anyway.....

I was in college yesterday. Some things have changed and some haven't.
One thing's for sure though, Baboo's still the same, loud . Even the great forces of nature can't change that.

I am bored. SO bored in fact that I'm actually studying....

This post doesn't really have a topic or theme to it so don't go looking for one.

I jus wanna say this, ponder on it for a while, its a proverb:

Out of sight, out of mind

One word...... Quattro

2009-02-17T19:23:00.000+08:00

To do with my room.....

2009-02-16T08:31:00.002+08:00

Things that don't make sense when you read them through....
Lets start:

I have two beds.
-I sleep on the floor.

I have a study table right next to a window
-But its facing a wall.

I have a small chilly plant in a small pot on the study table
-I treat it like a cactus.

I have 8 speakers in my room
-Only 2 are plugged in.

I have a DVD player in my room
-but no tv.

I have an amplifier in my room connected to the DVD player and the 2 large spekers
-I listen to the radio.

I have 2cupboards
-only one is mine

I have 2 bookshelves
-only one is filled with books. The other is the home for d DVD player and the amp.

I had many mosquitoes in my room. I put in an electrical mosquito repellent
-I have no mosquitoes in my room.

I have 5 caps hanging around my room
-I only use 1.

I have 2 boxes of HOTWHEELS cars which I used to collect
-None of them are on display.

Comparison of physical harm and dependence regarding various drugs (the British medical journal The Lancet)

As you can see, it is clearly proven medically, that smoking weed (Canabis) and LSD is much better and safer medically and socially than drinking or smoking normal cigarettes.

Since marijuana's alters ones perception on reality it allows a person to view something in a completely different aspect. Some people use marijuana effects to contemplate complex theories and fields as to get a deeper, more profound understanding of material they haven't yet fully grasped. In other words, get high n you'll suddenly discover amazing theories....

Its a get away kinda thing.....

It might be very useful.

iBORED, iUPDATE......

2008-11-28T23:38:00.005+08:00

I hope that pumpkin made you laugh. If it made u throw up, I'm truly sorry.............

Yes.... Its another update. This one however might not make any sense since i was pressured into doing this. I woke up at 1 today. uh....... writers block ................................................................................................................................................................
anyway...... Its been a week of idleness since college ended. Many ppl have grown bored outta their skulls so badly that i think now they've probably pulled their hair out.....

Some suggestions of who i think went (or is going) mad.
1. Me
2. Kiran (confirmed)
3. Boddah
4. My dog
5. My sisters injured pet cat

... boredom does many many things to the idle mind....
for instance, i cleaned my room today. TWICE!!!!!!
I now spend time sitting down thinking of what i'm NOT going to do next. I have even started dismantling things jus to see how they work. Maybe tomorrow I'll get started on the 1000 piece jigsaw puzzle (AGAIN)......

I've been putting off updating this thing for a while now because frankly, I had nothing to blog about. I was supposed to blog about the night I went clubbing but i don't think I will for obvious reasons. Aaron, Satish, Niresh, Anand and his friend know all too well what I'm talking about. HAHA!!!

Its been a really boring day... so far..

I asked a riddle to a few people today. It goes somthing like this.

As i was going to Sicilly, I met a man with 7 wives. The 7 wives had seven baskets which had 7 cats. Each cat had 7 Kittens. How many were going to Sicilly?
The answer should be 1.

People who got it right
Julia
Kiran

People who got it wrong and the answer they gave....
Veanu
7x7x7x7 = 2401

People who didn't answer
Satish
Alyssa
Dilip
Wei Ewe..... and many more.
.....................................................
I have come to the end of another post, but be rest assured..... There will be more......
........uh.... I hope...

I UPDATED !!!!! DON'T COMPLAIN K****!!!!
LOL.
oops I mean ......haha...
Or what I really meant to say was.... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

When I pretend,

Stealing second after second just cause I know I can,
But I can’t pretend that this is the way, it'll stay, I’m just,
(Trying to bend the truth)
I can’t pretend I'm who you want me to be so I'm,
(Lying my way from)
You!!!!!!!!

Monday morning blues....

Ok, now by popular demand (mostly by 2 ppl) veanu & Niresh, i have decided to update my unread blog. Yes i have realised that and it is truly a sad fact to realised. Its a Monday. It rained there was chemistry just now. I guess that defines the title well enough.

And now i shall start a rant about....people.Namely people we meet.
Now its not who we chose to meet (unless your on one of the 4,124,423,534 social networking sites currently available online). Most of us meet people through unforeseen circumstances. Some of the ever popular ones include road accidents, tripping someone on the LRT or even meeting someone at any orientation day thing. The thing i'm getting at is we all meet ppl. Good or bad, we meet 'em. How we react after that is entirely up to us. We can be nice or we can be real assholes...... ok I'm done. I just pointed out one of the ways we can be. Guess which one. I UPDATED VEANU!!! DON'T COMPLAIN!!! JUST SHUT UP AND SPAM D CHATBOX!!

Bush screw ups.

okay. here' the truth, when i began typing this, i didn't really have a a title for this post. I'm just going with whatever comes to my mind. Its Friday and i just finished chem lab. Had to do two titration's. usual stuff. I was sitting next to babu just like i did last week.

"our sink is always a different colour every week isn't it?" was one of the things i said to him today. That's because we block the sink with the stopper and pour chemicals into it. last week the sink was blue. today it was reddish yellow. when we pulled the plug everything seemed to just swirl around and drain away.

"now if there's a boy who fell into where this is all being dumped, what would happen to him?" was babu's question to me. -chem ended-

now I'm in the library at the PC. some things have come to my mind which i will now put into words. One of it was the fantastic story of how the gulf was started which was told to me in great detail during pure maths class by none other than Veanu. The details of the story i;m afraid i cannot share with you as it might to my blog getting shut down. Still typing and i haven't come up with a title yet. Was thinking a moment ago about food but the feelings' gone now.
I've been reading other ppls blogs and noticed that mine is rather "minuscule"in size when it comes to post lengths.

Its been about 5 minutes since i started, still no title yet.

...... and no, nothings changed in 1 minute.
since i have hit a severe mental block, I'm gonna stop here, leaving you thinking why did you even read this all the way through.--AH ! Found a title!!-- Isn't it comforting knowing that you didn't have to read this at all at the end? ----Ah yes the title, (the title which is another story altogether and will come in due time) It worked didn't it? It kept you here ;)

Curses fly.......

Well its been a long time and i think you readers there in blog land deserve a post. Here's one you might not find much to your liking but it'll help anyway.
Some time last week, I went to kassim Mustafa with some friends for breakfast. We all happily ate and drank until..... one of my friends who finished her iced milo noticed something rather disturbing. There was a cockroach leg at the botttom of her glass!!! She kinda screamed a little bit. Funy thing is she only didn't pay for the milo. Thats one story..... here's another one.

Yeaterday. Morning. 8.30. Same bloody shop.... i had 2 roti canai's. THE CURRY WAS HORRIBLE!!! The result? head ache and stomach pains throughout the day. Bottom line. DON'T EAT AT THAT @#$%#%%$## SHOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But enough of that, here's something interesting for you to know....... Check my blog or veanu's or wei ewe's every tuesday from now on.........

Its Friday the 13Th. OOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooo........ Nothing scary has happened so far, or ever will by the end of today and i'm quite confident about that. It was the last day of the AS exams today . What a relief. Now finally I can catch up on some much needed sleep. Really catch up on much needed sleep. There's one thing on my mind that i really need to speak about. Here goes.

Everyone is familiar with the fact that most movies are were or will be based on real life experiences or stories. Here's one thing to rattle your thoughts, what if it was backwards. What if real life was based on the movies? Whatever is in brackets is the movie it came from... For example,
*If new york were to follow how it is portrayed in the movies..........
-Every man in the men in black roaming the streets. (MEN IN BLACK)
-King Kong on the Empire State Building or any kind of building he can find. (KING KONG)
-A giant lizard is destroying buildings and nesting in Madison Square Garden. (GODZILLA)
-Giant flying saucers hovering over the skyscrapers. (INDEPENDENCE DAY)
-Empty streets throughout the town and zombie human things that come out at night. (I AM LEGEND)
-Spider man swinging from building to building. (SPIDER-MAN 1,2,3)
-Gangster mafia people insanely shooting each other in the street. (THE GODFATHER 1,2,3)

.......... and the list goes ion you see?

its like the confusing questions of
-Why don't the episodes of C.S.I crime scene investigation and Las Vegas ever meet in any of their episodes even though they're in the same city?
-How come C.S.I Miami never seem to run into the Bad Boys or the street racers from 2Fast 2Furious!?

........Lets face it, the only reasons these programmes make any sense to us at all even allthough they defy reality is because we become mindless zombies when we watch them.......
Its television and the movies. It'll do that to ya...... But dont lose any sleep on that. Enjoy the weekend!! Cheers ppl!!!!!

BTW, the words in yellow tell you a lot about the world today............

watch, enjoy, laugh
