Its the end of the month,and today just became a little bit more special because a friend had her birthday. There was a surprise birthday party held for her today and as usual,i was the "official' photographer.Not that I'm complaining of having to take pictures in an event where i should be relaxing,i mean I'm honored just to be invited.but as i was just "touching-up" the pictures i realized that there isn't that many pictures of me in them.i mean its like i was not there.This what got me thinking..is it just me or is it the photographer cardinal rule of "take pictures but do not get your pictures taken" because it really seems like it.
I'm not just complaining( maybe I'm not even complaining) about not having that many pictures to show of my "involvement' in certain events,it does take the enthusiasm of being a photographer.take the Toshihiko Izutsu conference for example,i took hundreds of pictures of different people in different situations and most of them are beautiful(not intended to flatter myself) but when i look back,i had this thought that just maybe,maybe i shouldn't have bought along my Canon for that event purely because i wanted people to take pictures of me instead of the usual way.
its not that I'm beginning to hate photography,its just that no one ever pointed that out to me,that you can rarely see a photographer getting his picture taken and when it does, from a photographer point of view, that ( well i might be exaggerating a bit but what the hell) us photographers do exist in front of you.
but i think its not that big of a prolem to me because i get to take beautiful pictures of beauiful people( although i think that i could have been taking much more beautiful pictures but i'm too lazy to buy the necessary equipments)so until there is a day when get to project myself in a certain environment and still be capturing that moment,i'll have to settle of being the man behind the picture..
Arrivederci!

What Do You Do??
actually i already did this post a couple days ago but somehow things don't go your way so here I'm again rambling about the same thing.Tonight I'm going to talk about celebrities..do i hate them?no.Do i love them? not really.so whats my problem? let me tell you this.
A few days ago i was at KLCC just to clear my mind( actually i was bored out of my mind but clearing my mind sounds to me like I'm busy with something,which i wasn't) so while i was getting up the escalator,i saw a famous person by the name of Aizat( those who are die-hard fans of AF should be screaming their lungs out) i mean i heard about the guy before and I've heard some of his songs.so the problem is that i don't know what to do..i mean do i go up to him and ask for his autograph? if that is it then you're wrong because its not like i carry an autograph book or something that he could sign on with me all the time (its not like i have an autograph book anyways) well maybe i could have asked him to autograph my arm or my face but that would be a little,no,a lot crazy.
the problem remains that "normal" people sometimes act not in a way that they are supposed to be when they're around celebrities. these people always think that they can sometimes feel uncomfortable when being recognized when they're out somewhere. so for you celebrities or people who are thinking of being celebrities, here's a little insight from the "normal people":
Us normal people feel wrongly about invading your privacy but what can we do, you are the one who wanted to be famous so deal with it. i know some celebrities say that" i went into show business not because of the fame" reason but lets be realistic here, everyone loves a little fame once in a while. why don't you think about us normal people for a second, how do you think we feel if we bumped into you?i mean we have to act as though you're not famous but everyone in this world knows who you are.so how do we do that?we act out of ourselves and if somehow we cant bear it,we shyly ask for a picture and sometimes hold your hand(well most of us do)
if you think about it,"normal' people do suffer the most so what do you do? the question remains..

About A Girl
I just thought it will be interesting to do a double post for today since im finished with my mid-term exams (Wohooooo!!!).
The reason for the topic is not because im in love,nor is it because im overly romantic today.Just thought a special dedicated post would be appropriate to someone..My first time talking bout a girl and hopefully,wouldn't be my last ;)
This post is dedicated to BL.what can i say about BL? well,shes beautiful,smart,fun to be with and to talk with,shy but at the same time has her own 'devil'ish acts,strong(not in a muscular sense),loving,great smile and i could go on and on. So whats so special about her? i think that she has the kind of 'love' for precious things..When i mean precious things im not referring to diamonds( might be) or money,she has this love for keeping things that mean the most to her.Im terrible at judging people and explaining what people are but you cant go wrong with BL, i dont know about girls that much but what i admire about her the most is that she hesitates on throwing even the small things..Im not saying this as though that its a bad thing,it just shows how much care she has for things that,although it can be replaced,its harder for her to let go.
Before i got to know her,i just thought that she was a shy girl,always keeping things to herself(sounds familiar to me..except for the girl part) but after i got to warm up to her,i thought "she's kinda fun"..The thing is that she aspires to be better and wants to learn new things everytime.I might be shouted at by BL for saying all of this but maybe thats a good thing,lets me know that she still wants to keep things to herself. One thing that i feel sorry for her is that,she doesnt want people to carry the burden of her problems.A person can only hold it for so long that when it falls down,someone needs to be there to help her up.
so if she's so great,can we know who BL is? do you know who BL is? let me give you a clue,she's beautiful..thats all i can give you for now.so if you do see a beautiful girl walking around campus do wonder if she is the BL girl im talking about,although there an only be one BL girl... hehe
ciao!

the Beautiful meter
so BL asked me last nyt about being beautiful,i mean people think that dressing sexy is beautiful and attractive.but what what constitutes the definition of being 'beautiful'.you see,i dont see myself as being beautiful,cute or whatever( although i've talked to people in a playful manner) but in a realistic sense,you cannot e the judge of your own self.lets take plastic surgery for example,i mean those people who wanted to fix their noses,their mouths,their ears and such,they are seeing it from their own perspective.i mean Micheal Jackson might think that his face is a work of art but to other people,its just plain scary.
the problem now is not that beautiful people should say that they are ugly but the must have heard that someone else say that they are indedd an angel. so going back to the topic of dressing "beautiful", you dont ask yourself that if what you are wearing is really beautiful or not,thats for other people to see and i think there is no truth in "beauty is in the eye of the beholder". why? because human think the same way and if someone thinks that a baboon is beautiful,its not beautiful in his own eye,its just that his eyes are fixed to only seeing ugly things,thats why the least ugly thing i.e baboon is the most beautiful to him.
so how do you judge what is beautiful or not? do we need a meter or a scale for it,say a scale of 1 to 10 ? the answer is no.you cant differentiate between any beauty and each beauty has its own level, what i mean is that you cant say that the beauty of a person is same as the beauty of a picture.. what i meant is that each person is beautiful,if its not in the inside,its on the outside or both like BL is..;p
au revoir!

Respect For Our Better Half
Its not unusual for us men to complain about the women in our lives. the usual nagging of a husband is that" my wife wants me to do this,to do that" and so on.a boyfriend might not like if the girl dresses him,a son might not like what the mother says to him.let me open your eyes to a little bit of truth.When i say this,its not that i am implying that you should be a robot and do anything that is ordered.what i just want to say is respect women.
when i say respect the women,i don't mean that we should respect all women.like all humans,there are some that don't respect others or even respect themselves.a woman who doesn't respect others is when she acts indifferent as immature boys,one that talks with no barriers,those who think that they are as "one of the guys".i mean i do respect women but only to those who deserve to be respected. you ask "how do we know who deserves to be respected?" you just have to look at how they act and how they speak.if they respect you as a human being then they deserve to be respected.speaking from the point of view of Islam,i think when the prophet says that men ought to respect women,it does not mean that women should not respect men. respect is all about earning it.A pregnant woman,or a mother for example,should be respected because she has brought life into the world. but she takes drugs or beats her won children,should we still respect her? the answer is definitely a NO.you see if a mother beats her own children it means that she has no respect for the feelings and pain of her children and therefore doesn't deserve it.
as for a woman who does not respect herself,i would say that it would be in the context of being a wild child. i mean a a girl who does respect herself wouldn't even think of wearing a skirt that looks like an underwear.even if its all about the fashion, women need to have that sense of morality in them just to differentiate them from the men. fashion is one thing but even some animals do cover their body( only difference is that its natural for them) but why do human being like to be naked? i mean not literally but if they want to show off their legs,they might as well sell pictures of their legs.whats the point of wearing a short skirt anyway,for one it only makes you vulnerable to perverts,another thing is that it attract unwanted attention.why go through all of that?
so i would just like to say this from my own opinion, i respect women greatly for their tremendous effort of being able to bear the stupidity of men but some re not as bright as others.so for the women out there,you will find a decent guy only if you respect the guy or the guy respects you.lets say you meet a girl at a party and he offers you a drink..so what does that tell you? it might mean that he is trying to get you into bed sometime tonight.if that is what you call respect to women you need to dig yourself a grave right now.
what i can say to the guys is always be a gentleman when you are with the ladies and to the ladies,appreciate the gesture and please do dress appropriately because people can jump to conclusions about you just by looking at the way you dress
and with that,i bid you farewell..

Democracy in The Name of Terror
this must be one of the topics that someone like me doesn't talk about much.the reason is because that even though I'm taking my minor in Political Science, i consider today's politic not the one that i have learned, one that is all about the wishes of the people.today's politic is all about power,who has the power to control the people,who has the power to eliminate the other and power to silence the opposition.
specifically im referring to the goals of one of the Israeli Politicians. the world has been made to notice that Israel is going to have a general election,i don't know when and i don't want to know.i was watching the news the other day when i was at the library(yes i do go to the library once in a while) and there was news on one of the promises that the candidates made if he were elected on the tele. if you did catch up on the news you would have been familiar with the name Benjamin Netanyahu,he is one of the candidates contending to be the leader of the Zionist state. if i was not mistaken,if here were to be elected,he would "destroy Hamas".
now you might not think that for a person to be a leader of the people,does the people want a "terrorist"(in a sense that he would wage war in the name of democracy is logical) to rule the country? for me, this shows their extreme hatred not towards Hamas but to the people of Palestine.if you think about it, to topple the government(which is chosen by the people of Palestine) of a country is what i think happened during WWII.I'm not sure whether the USA still wants to support a country not because they want to please them but Obama needs to severe ties with Israel first if he wants to make a Change to the world. it doesn't matter if he goes to Cuba and kisses the president or Fidel Castro,it does not clean the slate to the Muslim world.
if US of America wants the respect of the Muslim world,they would have to severe ties with the Zionist state and abolish the image of America being BFF with Israel. if the reason for Muslims in America(which is around the range of 2.8 million) that voted for Obama is for him to make a change in this world,that is what he should do as a person who believes in the freedom of the people(in this sense,the freedom of the people of Palestine who is not affiliated with Hamas) i mean,since when does the state of Gaza belong to Israel that they can just limit their freedom??
one thing that i just realized is that when Israel reported the reason for their attack is that Hamas was attacking them then why do they have to invade Gaza? was the attack coming from Gaza? did women and children which initiated the attack? I'm being objective here and still i don't see a reason for them to invade Gaza in the first place because from what i heard is that Hamas was still attacking parts of Israel attacks even after they invaded Gaza. now everyone knows that the objective of going to war is to eliminate the enemy but have they?i don't think so
if you look through my blog, you would have noticed that i haven't talked about politics up until now.i just think that i have to get this out before the passion disappears.
to the next prime minister of Israel,i hope you can stop the nonsense about your reason for continuing your annhiliation of the people of Palestine.for the sake of the humanity( i dont know if you are from another planet where you invade countries for breakfast) its just utterly disgusting to see humans behave like animals who cannot control their desires.so please if you are a human being like us and also if you do have a heart(do you?) or a brain for that matter,think before you act.
i dont know if you havent heard that we are not monkeys anymore so start acting like a human being for God's sake!
thats all for my political rant,im not sure i wanna do this anymore(ranting about politics) so if you do want a piece of my political mind,just gimme a holla
p.s/ i meant to change the title but i keep on forgetting,if you think this is funny,its not..

Dreaming of United Road
i once had a dream that i would watch Manchester United play at Old Trafford. to say that is my ultimate dream would be really stupid. i watched them much of the last twenty years of my life have been wonderful.i wont get much into the details but you know what i mean. And if you havent heard yet but that dream would be pratially fulfilled.why? coz MUFC is coming to Malaysia!!!!!
Yes its true,they are coming here and yes im hyper excited. theres only one thing that seems to me is kinda bittersweet on some level.you see,im planning to visit my sisters in the UK this april(mudahan tah) so there is no doubt that i am gonna visit Old trafford and somehow by then, i would have accomplished my dream. so whats the point of going? its Old Trafford for gods sake!! its the ground where champions were crowned and full of history.so thats it,it seems that my dream is not actually to se the team play but its to visit old trafford.that doesnt mean that i would prefer the watch Lun Bawang FC play at old trafford.its like a complete package to see Manchester united play and also visit Old Trafford.
just for the sake of being a die-hard fan of the team,i memorised some of the songs( coz my brother kept singing it with his friends and i thought it was cool to join them,actually it is) such as United Road,Viva Ronaldo,Anderson,Glory2 Man United and such.so come july, i would be the fan that sings his heart out Viva Ronaldo,Viva Ronaldo,Viva Ronaldo,Running Down The WIng,Hear United Sing,Viva Ronaldo!!!!

Change is good
A good afternoon to you my fellow readers.
first of all, im thinking of changing my title to something more relevant to my postings coz as of late,i've been going for topics that are less funny and much more igniting in terms of curiosity.so now im thinking of a new name for the blog,the only problem is that i only can think of cheezy names and its rarely that i can come up with an ingenius name..so i'll just stick to the "cheezy"ness just to show the "real" me.as for the content,it might or might not be the same. Somethings are funnier when you dont see it so i'll try to see things that people do that are funny but yet goes unnoticed.
so keep watching this blog and prepare to laugh at my title( that's if i can come up with something)
later!

Islam in Brunei
Hey Guys!
funny thing happens everyday( well not everyday but you know what i mean)..so lately i've been on a blogging "high" so i was searching the net on something i could write on so i "stumbled' onto this article in The Daily Brunei Resources . It talks about the mysterious grave in the middle of Bandar( just beside TAIB).that is not what i am focusing at.what im curious is about is regarding the "punishment" where she was stoned to death according to the Islamic law.We've heard so many times that Islam came to this region around the 15th century.So not long after that,full Islamic law was initiated which makes us more proud of our country no? you would expect that during that time there would be no full implementation of the Islamic law/Syari'ah but there you go.
I know its still considered as myth because this is not been proven but the writing on the tombstone proves that Bruneians or whoever was there at that time,was adhering to the Islamic orders and made it the only law of the land.it does make me wonder whether the other countries of the SEA region did practice Islamic Law during its early years.If they did then it would still be impressive but if they weren't then it still ok becasue it just proves that Brunei was the first state to practice Islamic law in this region.
Although one of my lecturer did mention that Islam did came before the 15th century but he is still trying to prove it.Who knows, islam might have been spread to the SEA before it came to China..
adios amigos!

It talks about the mysterious grave in the middle of Bandar( just beside TAIB).that is not what i am focusing at.what im curious is about is regarding the "punishment" where she was stoned to death according to the Islamic law.We've heard so many times that Islam came to this region around the 15th century.So not long after that,full Islamic law was initiated which makes us more proud of our country no? you would expect that during that time there would be no full implementation of the Islamic law/Syari'ah but there you go.
I know its still considered as myth because this is not been proven but the writing on the tombstone proves that Bruneians or whoever was there at that time,was adhering to the Islamic orders and made it the only law of the land.it does make me wonder whether the other countries of the SEA region did practice Islamic Law during its early years.If they did then it would still be impressive but if they weren't then it still ok becasue it just proves that Brunei was the first state to practice Islamic law in this region.
Although one of my lecturer did mention that Islam did came before the 15th century but he is still trying to prove it.Who knows, islam might have been spread to the SEA before it came to China..
