Missing something is like having constant stomach ache

I've been missing KMPP (read : Kolej Matrikulasi Pulalu Pinang) every now and then. I don't know why the longer I experience university life, the more I miss KMPP. To simply put it, university life sucks like hell.

Being in KMPP was kind of like being back in Prison-S with a bit more freedom.

On second thought, being at KMPP is no where similar to being in Prison-S. The only similarities were that we weren't allowed to go anywhere on weekdays and the school-like schedule. Apart from that, KMPP was a blessing. Really.

Things I miss the most about KMPP are my classmates, roommates and errr foods. Well I complained about the food's price every now and then but despite all those talks, gotta admit, the foods were lovely. Heck I even miss the lectures sometimes! And I seriously am not lying when I say I miss my lecturers. The classes were as boring as a class should be but my lecturers back in KMPP were awesome people. They taught well and for the first time ever in my life I didn't blame the teachers for my poor performances in exam (my add math and chemistry (form 4) teachers during high school were kinda *ehem* so I constantly blamed them for my past SPM result q: Yeah immature me.) Though I did skip classes every now and then, my lecturers were cool about it. Oh wait, that's not the only reason why I love my lecturers back then. Duhh. Apart from that they are just....awesome. I really don't know how to explain it with words.

There were also so many free time. I rarely went back home but i didn't mind it much. In fact, I kind of enjoyed it. I went to the cinema every weekend, see :B Now I'm in the middle of Shah Alam yet I rarely watch movie. Or to be more precise, the last movie I watched was Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2. Lame life, really. Back in KMPP that was located in the middle of nowhere, getting to cinema only took 45 mins by that fugly old bus. And only 1 hour+ if I ever wanted to cross the bridge to get to Queensbay or Gurney Plaza. In Shah Alam, surprisingly it takes almost 3 hours to reach KL with public transportation. Funny eh?

Regarding my classmates, what else are there to be said? They were sporting, awesome and....patient? I admired how they could stand my annoying and bossy attitude. Hehe sorry people. I know I wasn't an angle back then but seriously I love you guys! I miss having people like you guys in one place. My classmates here are 50:50. Some are absolutely okay, some are just insignificant, some are as annoying as f, and some I wouldn't even bother to mention. You guys on the other hand are really awesome and cool. Yeah every now and then there might have been some uncomfortableness between us but those were usually temporary. We were so family-like. I miss all those birthday celebrations, parties and even night classes (; . Anyway, do keep in touch people. Asyik asyik borak dengan Deeba, Shahriman and Syakir. Boring siut. HAHAHAHA

As for my roommates, thinking bout us back then was kinda funny. We weren't even close at the beginning but Kpop made us closer. Ha! Who said Kpop is nothing but music? *roll eyes* I don't wish to share how were were back then because it kinda em....embarrassing? q: But after we became closer, our craziness were beyond words. That was embarrassing too but worth reminiscing.

There were also people I knew who were neither my classmates nor roommates. Mutual friends of my ex-schoolmates, classmates and roommates to be exact. Back then it was very easy to get to know people. Everyone was so friendly and accepting. But here in UiTM, everyone is just so judgmental. And they care so much about age difference. Duhh. Not to mention those who think the course they are taking is better than anyone else so they look down at others (I'm even too used to this now =.= ). Funny how when people grow older, they start to care about every single thing other people do.

What was I typing again?









Never mind.

I miss KMPP so much. That's all that matters

Siti is lovable. Deal with it.

I've just finished listening to Siti Nurhaliza's new album. Oh fine. Datuk Siti Nurhaliza.

Overall I think the album is okay. Well of course, it's Siti. My ultimate (and only) bias in local entertainment scene. She's flawless from my point of view. Don't bother arguing. I'm obsess like that.

The logical side of me don't think this album is her best. My personal favourite is still EMAS. Yeah whatever.

Anyway I remember some comments I came across when this album was released. Some people had been dissing her English and say things like she should stick to Malay songs. That's the problem with local people, Malays especially. They can never support their own people. But when one particular person achieved success, they'd start claiming their 'rights' from the success. Boo you non-supportive Malaysians. Oh anyway, this is no Gambit-Prema-Yin-Marilah kind of thing so showing some love for it is so not wrong, you see.

Well, it's general knowledge that Siti's English is not up to standard. But, I have no problem at all with her pronunciation in any of the songs in this album. I can get what she was saying (in this case singing) without referring to the lyrics. That's good enough for me. I remember one of the comments I read regarding her English - "Siti cannot sing in english. Her grammer suck" and I was like....WTF? Lulz at you. No, I don't believe that was a typo because apparently A LOT of Malaysians fail to spell GRAMMAR just because the pronunciation is gram-mer. You people should really teach yourself first before you try telling anyone to correct themselves. Back to Siti, I salute her effort in learning English and she's improving with time. How do I know? Well, I've been listening to Siti for more than 10 f'ing years so that's how I know. You got prob meh?

There were also people who got Kpop involved with all this Siti-vs-English-arguments. They were (and keep on) saying that Kpop can invade the world (ha-ha-ha delusional) though they dont sing in English. So why didn't Siti stick to Malay even if she really wanted to enter International market? LMAO. I'm not going to say anything about that "Kpop invaded the world" part since I love Kpop too but to say it all happened without English being involved is just totally delusional. Before Wonder Girls debuted in the US, have you ever heard of Kpop? I started listening to Kpop years ago and during that time it's just a norm to be laughed at for listening to songs I didn't even understand. But now, I can listen to Kpop almost everywhere. And that didn't start just like that. Wonder Girl's Nobody became a big hit and that was the English version. After people listened to that, they started digging out the original Korean version and later expanded their search on other Kpop stuffs. Get my point here? Let me make it clear - If Nobody wasn't translated and marketed in English, Kpop will stay anonymous to most people in the world. Therefore, saying Kpop succeeded solely on their mother tongue language is unacceptable. Now, you better stand in front of the mirror and boo your stupidity.

Why am I ranting about Kpop?

So, say whatever you want to say people. I'm proud of Siti and her latest album since it had been her biggest dream to come out with an English album. Now that she'd achieved her dream, you people bashed her. What a shame, losers. At least she achieved her dream, and she's rolling in millions of money. How about you? Still there adding fat to your bottoms while sitting in front of your PCs and troll around, aren't you? Go get a hobby, really.

And dear Siti, please don't stop singing and producing album. Or else the local industry will really really lost something so valuable. Nothing in the current industry can really make Malaysians proud, honestly. I mean, you don't expect us to go crazy over Max 24:7 do you? And Siti, the moment you stop singing is the moment I stop listening to local scenes. OK it's not that I really listen to them anyway but at least you gave me a reason not to ask my family members to change the radio station whenever they tuned to Era/Hot/Sinar/Klasik fm(?). Anyway you've faced far worse criticism than this so I guess You're gonna be okay. *Playing your "All Over Again" in the background as inspirational song*





I really made it sounds like Siti's currently reading my blog munching Nachos, didn't I? Oh-my-......





Delusional.

Farewell.

...for the time being. I am so not in the mood to continue blogging. Don't ask me why. Been too busy lately and there's nothing much to be talked (in this case write) about. OK actually there ARE a lot of things I wanted to rant about but... I'm losing my writing passion. Online at least. Been writing on papers mostly. Nak taip balik amcam malas je. Wait and see je lah. And please... DON'T FORCE ME TO UPDATE MY BLOG. I will when I'm in the mood and I have time so you better stop asking. I'm not here to please you anyway. Go get a hobby and make sure it's not "reading My Own Perception". blah.

Wild humans

I saw a few sick things yesterday.

First, the front page of utusan where there was a pic of small boy lying face down on the hot (seems so) tar road with bleeding head. He was in school uniform and turned out that he was dead. Hit and run case. I really hope the person who hit him and his younger sister (6, she died too) saw that picture and felt haunted for his/her whole life. How could you be such an asshole? You hit those kids and left them dying on hot tar road? It was a fucking hot afternoon! Killing them is one problem, letting em die that way is another. Damn! If I ever meet you I'm gonna hit you and drive on your head til it bursts and you brain scatters. Clearly you don't need one because you don't use it. Be damned, whoever you are. And to the family of the victims, especially their mum, I really hope you stay strong. Losing two kids in one day in such way is worse than lifetime nightmare, really. *sigh*

Second, when I was on my way back from Shah Alam with T. I couldn't remember which toll was it but there was this one woman standing at the toll with a huge placard hanging on her neck, promoting PLUS smiles card. Dear PLUS, that was a sick way to promote something, seriously. You should see her face. She looked pitiful and I think she's around 40 or more. And she was standing! You do know how hot the weather usually is at toll houses don't you? With blazing sun (it was around 3 if I'm not mistaken) and a lot of cars around! The placard was about her size anyway since she's kinda petite(?). The placard was hung on her neck and went all the way down below her knee.

Tell me wearing such huge placard wasn't embarrassing. Tell me wearing such huge placard was damn comfortable under hot weather. Was it hard to provide a table and chair and put the placard on the road or something for people to see instead of using human billboard, dear PLUS people? It was big anyway, I swear anyone should be able to see it. Or... Was she being punished or something? Because I saw that kind of thing once outside one shop in a shopping mall. A girl was caught stealing something so she was made to wear such placard with words "I was caught stealing etc3 (can't remember)" and stand in front of the shop. Even so, THAT IS NOT THE WAY TO PUNISH ANYONE.

So PLUS, please, get rid of such way to promote anything. Whoever suggested that, are you dumb or something? Were you born heartless? Oh I forgot to mention - THIS IS FASTING MONTH MAN! IDK whether that woman was fasting or not (she wore tudung so she's a muslim) but if she was fasting, then please double all the curses I have for you. I hope karma bites you... Really hard.

Human nowadays are becoming less human. Again, those were sick!
