Its a beautiful Friday and in a few hours time I shall be making my drive back home to Melaka for the weekend. Always nice to have the weekend round the corner.
HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
I was reading my own blog -yes I like to read my own writings- and noticed that a total stranger would get the impression that I'm a raving lunatic. Well, I am :D
But anyways I was thinking long and hard about whether I should blog about what was on my mind earlier in the day. And as of now I'm still kinda undecided, but I guess since I'm halfway through I'll mention it briefly anyways.
Following recent developments about the different issues in our country today, mainly THAT video clip that everyone is talking about (well there are other things too: PAC findings, ACA, EC, police force, C4-ed Mongolian model, lawatan sambil belajar to Silk Road in China, not very intelligent ppl in the dewan rakyat, etc), reading different articles and reports (newspapers, blogs, websites), well, I dunno what to conclude. Its just interesting to note how the pro govt newspapers (i.e. the Star), the slightly more neutral (NST & Sun), the very not pro govt (the rest of the media) choose their choice of words -or none at all- in reporting the issue.
You know, the thing I never like about reading "opposition" blogs like Lim Kit Siang (see hyperlink on right) and MalaysiaToday or MalaysiaKini (google them cos I'm lazy to link), is that although they contain a element of truth (note that depending on the writer/topic of discussion the size of the "element of truth" varies greatly, but anyways read it on your own and draw your own conclusion on that as well), after a certain period of exposure to these blogs, you kinda feel angry or depressed or both. It's hardly inspirational material. But then again when you read some of the local papers you get a sneaky feeling that lots of stuff is not properly reported or worded in such a way that you get a different impression (well not exactly inspirational either, just the kena tipu type of feeling). Ignorance is foolishness, but knowledge is a pain as well.
Which is why I refrain from blogging down my thoughts -on the political side of things- here. There's enough websites out there for you to read those kinda stuff.
So as far as I'm concerned, LETS GO ROLL SOME KATAMARI!
*rollrollrollrollroll*
I seriously need to come up with a better plan for my future dictatorship to work.

hey DANIEL!
Long time no talk to you lah. How's it all going!? Wah, supervisor in the bank, spanking people, fun lah work..besides the fact you have to sit more exams?? Are you ever back in Malacca? My summer hols just ended. (Well not really holiday lah - was doing 2 months of elective) Talk to you soon!?? And you're on facebook? I'll go find you :P
i dunno how to find u -_-
Yea I think so too. Msian papers are so pro govt, and then you get all these alternative news which are on the other extreme. After awhile i juz felt, Ignorance is bliss haha, cos it takes up too much energy getting upset.
Glad you're blogging again!
