What makes a Malaysian a Malaysian

Check it out

Huah.

What a powderful post. Even my knee and my ketiak agree.

My favourite:

8. You know someone who can specially develop an angmoh accent when speaking to a American / British / Australian.

and this one BEST.



Haha, Merdeka!!!

Delayed-National Day

Tomorrow is National Day. And probably I will be having it celebrate later than most of you. I no holiday for my national day, sigh. (of course i have another day of holiday, not my own national day haha)

My flight to Germany is tonight 11, and will be tough to have a very heavy month of traveling. If Hong Kong visit is confirmed then I will have less than 10 days in singapore for the entire September. Maybe I should rent out my room ahha. Don't know it is good or bad, though I am quite excited, and worry at the same time. Been looking forward most to 11 Sep because I will be at home in Ipoh!!

Again I am still slacking because I hate packing.

Just procrastinate.

Happy National day!!

別人瞧得起你的時候

当我昨天看到康永(对,我跟他很熟的)这篇剖白,我就很想把它给一个人看。因为我只想到,他是最需要看到这篇文章的人。虽然有许多非常康永式的叛逆,所说的话也不一定让每个人觉得中听,可是他把很多现实里的惊涛黑暗,象事不关己般的说出来。我宁可相信那是真的,我跟康永很熟的。他不讲骗话。

希望你有所领悟。

-----------------------------


我在一所私立學校,待了將近十五年的時間,從幼稚園一再免試直升,一直升到高中畢業。我代表這個學校,參加很多比賽-----作文,演講,辯論,從這些比賽拿到的獎狀,足夠當壁紙;我也不間斷的當班長,當模範生,當學生會主席,當畢業生代表,

可是,我自己心裡很明白-----對這些比賽,這些〞公職〞,我都沒有熱情。

我從來沒有把那些冠軍杯當成是光榮,我也從來不認為擔任那些〞公職〞是為了〞服務人群"。

我只是憑叢林動物的本能知道,這些冠軍杯,這些公職頭銜,都可以讓我更任性,享受更多特權,也更方便的擺脫困住我的,課本裡的世界。

我很冷淡而有效率的完成一次又一次的比賽,來賺取我要的空間。爸媽常常困惑,搞不懂我為什麼出去比賽得了冠軍,回到家卻絕口不提。他們不曉得,我是以這些冠軍為恥的。

我的作文,演講,辯論,全部都充滿了我一點也不信的謊言,用盡了我覺得很廉價的表達技巧。我不得不引以為恥,因為這些跟光榮無關,跟熱情無關,只是為了換取更多小小的,不被控制的特權而已。

這是我在這家學校,從幼稚園到高中,學到的重要的東西 : 人,在某些別人瞧得起你的時候,你要學會瞧不起你自己。

高中的最後一年,我終於用行動唾棄了自己的特權,我編了說實話的校刊,讓自己被學校記了大過,用爛成績驚險畢業,離開這個學校。

我某個程度的珍惜這段〞高度政治化〞的少年歲月,我從中體會到的,不管是腐化的樂趣,還是反叛的快樂,都替後來的我,省掉了很多時間,讓我沒有再耽溺在無聊的權力遊戲裡。

教育,本來就應該是這樣的---把你拋到空中,接近一下星星,再讓你跌進溝裡,聞聞自己的臭。

如果你運氣不錯的話,你會聞得到自己的臭,你會把自己洗乾淨。

我的運氣還不錯。

我聞到自己的臭。

奥运

很应景地看奥运,从开幕典礼开始。

有一段没一段在看,有时纯粹在浪费时间,因为象那种举重的或骑马的,根本看不懂。有时看到跳起来,象4x100自由式接力,看美国的Lezak游一场有生之年不可能再重复的泳。46.08秒要比世界纪录快将近一秒,可惜无法记录在案。英文报道都用同一个词,叫sensational. 那个我懂。因为sensational到我跳起来了。输给46.08秒不是什么丢脸事。还好法国Bernard后来拿到100米金牌,不然仍然太难过。

刚才看男网双打,瑞典对瑞士,当然上场的有Roger Federer,可怜之前又输掉单打,还好顺利拿下双打金牌,好过没有。他打球象在演奏一样,飘逸到要死。西班牙仔是没错干掉Federer,这个月十八日过后就会堂堂正正入主天下第一宝座。不过他打球象公牛狗一样,我不喜欢。

我在想为什么奥运有骑马玩帆船,却没有壁球。如果有大马应该会有个金牌十拿九稳吧,那个槟城Datuk真的是道道地地的马来西亚人,身列世界级名将咧。比F1的Hamilton还要稳定。讲到金牌,看明天的羽球男单吧。又是林丹对李宗伟,起码有面银牌。其他的快给中国垄断,还好印尼有个混双在决赛,漂亮干掉那个象男人的女人和是男人的男人。谢杏芳在关键时犯下几个不稳定错误,应证了一个银牌的材料,毕竟奥运看实力不看样子。张宁的球比较有奥运冠军的势,她拿金牌是活该,而且幸亏奥运不看样子看实力。

那天看见一个中国人样代表美国还赢得奖牌,身上披着美国国旗。我就在想,如果他真的只有护照是个美国人,站在领奖台上披着美国旗听着美国国歌时,是个怎样的心情。一定很复杂吧。不知道李佳薇会不会感觉怪怪的,因为看样子他也是奥运奖牌的料。

加油吧。Lionel Messi, 李宗伟, Djokovic, Federer 和Bolt.

我是你们的粉丝。

A near miss

There has been occasion where little tolerance should expected from me.

I frankly do not enjoy cover other people's ass and have no sympathy for people who think the world operate around them. These are those people who only think of their own problems and if you do not help them means you owe them one. Tears and cry are not the correct thing to justify the request, and I know I am deaf/blind to tears.

Your experiment working well or poor, it's just another day to anyone else but yourself. The only obligation I have is to get my job done by offer my best help possible. And you don't make appointment with me at 11am when you "think" you could be ready at 11am. I owe you nothing to leave at 4pm without achieve anything, because you wasn't ready even at 4pm and only bloody need my presence only by 930pm. 930pm and 11am is too far in between to even call it a miss. If it was, it was surely ridiculously made. Must be thinking you can complete more tasks than you actually can.

This is a typical example of a self-centered one that still have the gut to ask if I could stay. When you know (or you don't know) you have 20 mice to sacrifice, if I were you, I will be get ready mentally and logistically one day before or come in really really really really really really early, like maybe 2am. I wun be oversea the day before a "very important" experiment if it really matters you. You only care about the result, you don't give a damn to the experiment.

Is a hard lesson to learn because there was no responsibility and commitment in the experiment. and these are the people who will become a PhD in 5 years, but I don't.

WTF.

p/s of course after the long long day no result were gain from the experiment. It simply failed. As much as and as less as I expected.

告别式羽球

今天打了一场告别式羽球。

发了一封文绉绉的电邮,几佛么一下。原因是我不想再为租场而七早八早爬起床。太痛苦了,租场要两个星期前,在七点关卡一开以掩耳不及迅雷(太快了,连打字都追不上,我没讲你没看清楚有误,对不对。各位同学,偏偏就是掩耳不及迅雷才会迅雷不及掩耳哪)的速度霸场。几十个场地在三十秒之内全部被扫清光。七点零一分时大概全国的羽球场都被人租去了。新加坡(住)的人很厉害的,连租个打羽球的场地都那么有竞争力,难怪我亲爱的祖国总是看来像悠闲的笨蛋。

当然那是假假的。羽球还是要打。我只是不想再服务人群,只想服务朋友。

刚才一行六人走到巴士站,就平平常常一样。突然感觉平凡好幸福。要的不多,可是难得啊。我就是一个希望平凡,渴望目光,又不甘特出的地才。因为我根本不是天才嘛。

告别式羽球就是打球时,想象一下那是你最后一场比赛,而且是纪念赛。象最近曼联的娃娃脸杀手Ole Gunnar Solskjær一样,一班老人陪一个以前很厉害的老人踢球,然后不管谁赢,买票进场的都是来看他的。我们今天就是那样打球。

非常想赢,然后打完很开心。当然,如果今天我有赢的话,我应该会更开心。一场就够了。
