Half Ton of Junk

I'm going to haunt The Star to eternity by reporting their errors. Maybe they'll employ me as their head editor. :)

Communist at heart

Our Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi ala Soviet Cold-War style.


Here's another picture to convince you.

What is better than..

One bottle(well, more to big-assed container) of Whey?

TWO bottles of Whey, of course!

Our Education is Fucked.

As I was digging through my old stuff, I came upon this folder.



It sure did bring back memories of 2006. Not to mention it also managed to shed new light onto some things that might just have been overlooked if it were any other ordinary person looking through it.



Yes. I'm implying that I'm special. Fuck the Copernican principle*.


*For those who STILL do not understand what the principle meant even after looking through Wikipedia's article, it just means that I'm special. :)

There was a series of "l33t (elite)" camps organised by the State Ministry of Education back in 2006. These "elite" camps were went for, well, "elite" students like me (aHAHHahaahah). Each school was required to send a few participants for the camp. If I remembered correctly, I was the wildcard entry. :(

So at these camps, we were basically given a folder like the one you've seen and throughout the duration of the camp there would be seminars conducted. Rooms were shared five to a room. Have I mentioned the rooms suck? The food too.

Ok, so the subjects covered were the Science subjects, English, Additional Maths, and I SERIOUSLY forgot if BM was covered. I wouldn't have given a shit anyway. During those seminars, we the "elite" students were given tips on answering questions.

So as I was looking through the papers, ONE stood out from the rest.

Basically because it didn't have those colorful standard covers like this one.

AND also because it had ENGLISH on its front page. IF you call it english though. Look at this.

The first thing you'll notice is that it is FILLED with red paint. So much so that it'd look better if the whole thing was red.

All in all, I conclude that that ISN'T English. As much as you(Hishamuddin)'d like to deny it, our education is fucked.

Well like, DUH.

Town Hall Meeting with Our ADUN

Hannah Yeoh, the ADUN for my area organized a meeting with the residents of SS18 at the SS18 padang. Yeah, she specifically mentioned "For the residents of SS18 only."

But naturally residents from all the adjacent areas HAD to come, including yours truly. Well, I was actually just following my mum who wanted to go.

Yeah, and like every other Good Ol' Malaysian, we arrived anything but on time. That is a good whole THIRTY minutes late. The 'meeting' had already started by the time we arrived.

Have I mentioned that the location of the meeting was only 500m away?







I've got no idea what happened before I arrived, but it was Q&A session when I got there. Residents took turns voicing out their opinions.






This man was damn tulan about the double parking problem in SS15 (that's where all the banks are). Hannah tried to explain about the 'two types of problem' that lead to double parking. Two of which I didn't buy at all. The first 'problem' is that there is absolutely no parking available and the person has to double park. The second 'problem' is that the person just double parks 'for the lulz'.






This uncle was also damn tulan about the public transport. He complained that public buses RARELY turned into the main road dividing SS14 and SS18. Hannah asked him if he knew "how to lodge a complaint with Metro Bus". Well if he knew he wouldn't be complaining, wouldn't he?

This poor uncle's case was the most kolian one liao. He said people always dumped their garbage in front of his house. Illegally. Bangladeshi grass cutters dumping the cut grass in front of his house. And to cap the whole tulan-ness off, people would dig through the garbage for things they might want, aluminium cans, used syringes, undetonated WWII nukl33r bombs, and leave the garbage all over the place. Hannah advised him to contact MPSJ regarding his problem. Somehow I doubt MPSJ would be efficient enough to react fast enough to catch the culprits…

Did I mention there was food? But since I had a lousy camera in my hands I couldn't take any food or risk spilling it all over the camera. The pictures aren't really clear, but what the hell do you expect when you're using ISO 1600 without a flash, well some with.

Some people were still so excited about Hannah Yeoh ans stayed around to bug her even after the event was over.

Yeah, the meeting was held in a playground...area.
