...About 15Malaysia: The Son



This one, I feel-and I found some other people feeling the same way too judging by the comments at the site, I find it unfinished. When the video ended, I thought it was just reaching the high point in delivering it's message.

Too me it's unfinished. I did not get the message.

So That's What I Think.

...About Zee Avi

Miri born singer who is now based in the USA. Has a deep, big, beautiful soulful voice. To me, a lil mix of Lily Allen and Norah Jones.


She writes about dark, sad, depresing stuff but sings it in a light soothing tone.

First single released here called 'Bitter Heart' about a housewife tired of waiting around but in an oh so sweet tune.

'Poppy' a jazzy blues number, about a heroine addict lover talking about how the poppy took her baby away.

She writes about being true to oneself even if it means being shunned from the crowd in 'Honey Bee'.


Perfect cd for meaningful soulful easy listening songs.

So that's what I think.

...About 15Malaysia: House



My interpretation is, some people aren't even lucky enough to be able to dream of something big. Being so used to having so little. They find that, why dream of a big house when this small one is so nice, keeps me safe, happy with my mother. My father built it with his own hands.

The boys who dreams of Ferrari car and heli pad on the rooftop might be rich and living in luxury, but not necessarily happy.

Be thankful for what you have, no matter how little or how small. People who have less, are losing what little they have, everywhere, everyday.

So that's what I think.

...About 15Malaysia: The Tree



This one is special in more ways than 1. First is, you get to see someone in a different light other than the one he has always been portrayed by the media. Second, you get a glimpse of what the proper Islamic life is about. (that so many of us including myself have yet to embrace fully)

Please hold no prejudice.

So that's what I think.

...About 15Malaysia: Chocolate



This one, is by the late Yasmin Ahmad.

My interpretation: some of us have no idea how lucky we are, yet we keep complaining about what the government is not doing for us. When in fact, there are others who are legally being treated unfairly.

Hak Keistimewaan Melayu?
I have nothig to say.

So that's What I Think.

...About Not Eating Pork

I don't eat pork because my religion forbids me too. But people don't know why. Well, there's a reason behind everything. More often than not, there is a scientific reason to back it up.

But if you think I'm bull shitting then whatever lar.

But recently I came across this blog (click here) that explains it in a very cute way.

Below is a comic that explains about halal, haram, and slaughter in Islam, taken from that blog.

So now you know why even if the restaurant doesn't serve pork, does not mean it's halal.

Happy Puasa-ing.

...About Common Courtesy

Some people, are not born or instilled with the common courtesy that the majority of the world's population has. I wonder sometimes, how can they not feel bad for doing something that irritates, annoys, disrespects other people?

Is it in their upbringing? Have they always had things their way, not having to worry about hurting other people's feelings? Have they no manners? Or did they just fall down a very very long stretch of stairs while growing up, impairing their brain, reducing their brain synapses, making them less able to think clearly and rationally?

Whatever the reason, it doesn't make it forgivable for them not having the decency to be courteous to other people.

Some situation that I have come across (not necessarily what I went through, but also what my friends have experienced)

1. You want to hitch a ride. You don't tell the friend that's car-pooling with the driver and just smile at the driver without saying anything. You bloody freaking ask the driver/owner of the car "Hey? can I get a ride?" What is so darn bloody difficult about that? You don't even look at the owner of the car throughout the day, much less speak to that person, but suddenly at the end of the day, you get in their car, not even looking at that person in the eye. Have you no shame? I guess not.

2. You are using something that doesn't belong to you, but you know the owner doesn't mind if you use it. So you use it all up, leaving none for the owner if he/she wants to use it. How very inconsiderate of you.

3. You want to fiddle with someone's new gadget. Instead of tagging along when that person is using it, you wait until he's out of the room, take the gadget out of his bag, switch it on, and fiddle with it like it belongs to you. All this without the permission of the owner. When the owner comes back into the room, you act like everything's fine and dandy. When in fact, the owner is thinking "WTF is he doing???" Not even acknowledging the fact that you've done something wrong, instead, you fiddle with the gadget for the next oh, say, half an hour? while the owner is breathing down your neck.

These kind of people, amaze me. Have they no shame? Have they no feelings? Are their skin seriously that thick? Maybe they don't mind if someone did that to them, I don't know.

What I know is, people like that are ignorant, selfish and rude. There are many more words that I can use here, but then this post will be too long. So there.

That's what I think.

...About 15Malaysia: PotongSaga



Yes yes, there's 1Malaysia, about how we are united and all that cliche stuff. Truth is, as much as we are united, we are also divided, over the smallest little things. Things that goes unspoken, but well known. But we prefer not to talk about it like an elephant in the room.

This first video is about misconception. There so many things we don't understand about each other. You would be surprise about what other people don't know, even if to you, that particular fact - whatever it is- is a well known fact.

Reality is, people grow up in different environments, being sheltered from certain things, but exposed to others.

Let's get to know each other.

So that's what I think.

... About Revamping My Blog

This blog will no longer be personal, nor will it be business. It will just be random thoughts, about random and unrandom stuff.

Be prepared to hear opinions from a petite bitch who sometimes can't stop talking for her own good.

I might do reviews, of things that, oh of things that I can do review off.

If you think that this blog is a waste fo time, well I'm sorry, go ahead and click on the small 'X' at the top right hand corner of your screen.

If you think " Thank God! She updated!" Well thank you very much for checking in from time to time. You boost my nuffnang earnings. :)

If you think, "Alamak, no more gossip and rumours to pass around anymore" Too bad for you!!

Quite frankly, it matters not what you think, because this space right here, is for me to write about what I think. Comprende? Good.

So that's what I think.

Need some thrill?

I've been telling some people about this video that I've seen few years ago. With the recent death of the King of Pop, this video has regained its popularity.

So, if for some funny reason you have yet to see it, here it is!
