blind?? retarded??

50 years and still counting, big celebration is over....problems still around.

I bet all of us had gone through such experience in our daily life..or maybe we are one of them who make others gone through it before.

when I was young...about few years back, when I saw this sign at LRT.

I will start joking by saying, it only says no burger and cup drink..so, we can bring other food and beverage in. ( I think most of us did that right??)

when we saw this sign, we will say only this kind of dogs are not allow...means that other breeds and other animals were allowed. (anyway, how on earth we can find a dog looks exactly like that??)

few years later, today...when I saw those signs, I will still joke but will follow it.

but unfortunately, not every Malaysians can understand what is the message behind these signs. ( despite, it shows very clearly in front of their eyes )

as a driver..you surely experienced this before.

this is a "no parking" sign...very clearly that we are not allow to park our vehicle on the particular area when we saw this sign. But some clever people, who think it is okay because they only park there for few minutes to settle their own business. They will never concern about other's inconvenient. When they were "doing" their business, maybe the road is blocked by their beautiful car...(don't blame others if you found a long line on your car after this, or maybe side mirror is on the floor)

you will find it is difficult to drive pass some road when there are cars everywhere, and the road has shrunk from two lanes become 3/8 lane...but Malaysian's driver are well trained to handle such problems..haha, even Avanza can go through..

if cannot?? horn only..horn until that clever car owner come out..

this is a "no entry" sign....means that we cannot drive our vehicle into that particular road if we saw this.

this is my very own experience..there is a small road in Ampang, where we can use that road to go to the main road. But vehicles from main road cannot drive into that small road as there are 2 "no entry" signs beside the road. But some smart people, try to act smart and drive in when I was driving out...so you look at me, I look at you. I dont want to reverse, so this smart person need to reverse as she is the one who dont understand the sign. The road is small, so when she reverse, her car's front part hit the wall and the bumper crack a bit...

am I acting cruel here or I did a right thing??? my mom scolded me for not letting her in. ( whats wrong with this world??)

one of my favorite sign..."no smoking"!!! errm..unfortunately, at least 40 to 60 % Malaysians don't like it. (majority smokers)
my own experience again..just few days back (although it happen on me few times a week)
outside my flat's escalator, we can see this sign with words below it as well..Surprisingly, majority Ampang smokers understand it but not fully understand. They didn't smoke in the lift, but they hold a lighted cigarette in lift..just imagine, the smell~ (dei!!! your f*cking cigarettes still smells although you didn't put it i your mouth) They seems like do not bother at all, they want to kill themselves that is fine for me, but we are innocent!!!! I don't want to die so fast...

another one, during family reunion dinner early this year. I was having dinner at this one of the most famous restaurant in Ampang with my family...on the glass door and around the restaurant, there are sign of "no smoking" due to it is an air-conditioning restaurant. But yet again, Ampang smokers don't understand it...they smoke in an air-conditioning restaurant. That is not the worst one, the worst is...our restaurant owner aka tauke, he didn't stop those f*cking smokers...because of business, but hey!!! what about us?? we are innocent!!!!

so, many people will try to find way to do things against the sign..such as, the "no food" sign..as long as not burger, any food can be brought in. "no pet" sign, as long as not that dog, others can and etc etc...so, what about

although it shows male and female, but it didn't said that gents cannot visit the ladies and ladies cannot visit the gents. So, can we visit both??? A friend of mine said, we can visit just that we dont want to. ( this thinking appeared after I stop her from enjoying her food due to the "no food" sign) this is sooooo Malaysian's thinking right??

as long as it is okay for ourself, we dont need to care about other's feeling. damn!!!

Malaysians can't even follow when there are signs around, how about without signs??
Malaysians got no commonsense at all!!!!
(all these photos below were taken by me today..just before I want to blog)

Ampang driver...as long as got space, even in front of rubbish dump also no problem. Even the office already put notice and warned them before. Because by parking at all this so called "car park", it will make it more difficult for others when they make a turn. It is more difficult for Alam Flora to clean up the big rubbish container. ( so, don't get surprise when they found scratches or missing side mirror)

another example, just few seconds after the first photo...wonder how they pass their driving test and the undang - undang test. Didn't they learned about do not stop their car in the yellow box?? (although just that car ass) this is not the worst one..the worst is, when both side (where that guy stands) also parked a car..you seriously need to slow down until 20km/j and drive slowly in order not to hurt your car...(if I have a tank, I surely will just bang these cars!!!)

another example...at this area, when you are making a turn...please slow down your car, not for you to see whether is there any car coming from the other directors. But is for you to see is there any car parking around there. Please remember, this is not the worst situation, the worst is when there are cars parking behind these cars..and opposite of t (errr, just got a pic)

to make your life easier..I went and snap this pic. Just imagine those white boxes are those car that parked at the side of the road. The two red boxes are moving cars who wanted to go to the opposite direction. ( is it difficult?? when the road is so narrow and you are rushing..)

just imagine white boxes as parked cars...more difficult for other cars to make a turn into that road. Another thing is, this workshop...make noises even at 12am. They tested their cars by speeding around this area...damn freaking noisy!!!! Accident might happen anytime...

Malaysians can't read the sign even it got no word on it and cannot understand what those sign mean even just a picture. Always do things that make themselves easy but not others...and don't even have commonsense!!!! They are just like him~

(I like him anyway...but please don't be so retarded and use your brain to think!!!)

*****

good news!!!!
Japanese drama "1 Litre of Tears" been voted as most touching drama in Japan!!! I still feel sad when watching it at 8tv on weekend. ( I bet 99% who watched this drama, surely cry along..)

Man United beat Sunderland 1-0 yesterday. Thanks to Louis Saha converted Nani's corner with his head into the net at 72 minutes. This is his first game of the season after subbed on for Anderson before second half kick off. His last game was during last season Champions League semi final second leg against AC Milan. With this win, Man United now are at 6th place with 8 points.

today's evening...windy~

One Litre of Tears

Few weeks back, my friend recommended me to watch this drama "1 litre of Tears".
He said very touching, even second episode you can start crying. But that time I didn't bother about it and I know that 8tv is showing it on every Saturday.

yesterday I was very boring and wanted to watch 1 last drama before college start on Monday.
Go around crunchyroll and found this "1 Litre of Tears". So, I decided to watch it.


(from Wikipidea)

This drama is based on the real-life struggles of a 15-year-old girl named Aya who suffered from an incurable disease, but lived life to the fullest until her death at 25. The script is based on the diary Aya kept writing until she could no longer hold a pen. The book that later followed entitled "One Litre of Tears" has sold over 1.8 million copies in Japan alone. Aya Kito proved her courage and positive attitude towards an uncertain future when suffering such an illness, spinocerebellar ataxia. The drama spans a decade, during which she graduates from school while her conditions worsen.

The story begins as Aya prepares for the new semester. Despite being happy, she suffers from slight physical problems, which only her mother seems to notice. However, one day, she falls unconsciously on the floor.

After she is sent to the hospital, she is shortly diagnosed with the disease. Despite the fact that she is diagnosed with the terminal illness, she does not lose the will to survive.


Aya Kito's diary " Litre no Namida" or "1 Litre of Tears" (also called "A Diary with Tears or A Diary of Tears" has been published after her death.
The diary, a true story based on her own life, was originally written in first person. It is about a girl coping with her teenage life along with a degenerative disease. She keeps a diary of not only what she does but how she feels and the hardships she must endure.

Erika Sawajiri played Aya Ikeuchi.

Hiroko Yakushimary played Shioka Ikeuchi (Aya's mum who played a big part in Aya's life especially when she has been diagnose with the disease)

Aya and her family during new year and her disease is getting more serious then before.

In the drama, a chracter named Aso Haruto has been added. The purpose is to fulfill late Aya's dream to be in love.

Pictures from her diary

Aya when she was just 15 year old. Still healthy and always with the friendly smile on her face.

Aya when she was 18. She needs wheelchair to assist with her movement.

Aya with her mom when she was 23 (the final stage of her disease). She is no longer able to speak and need the board to allow her to point out her message.

Aya's diaries which later been published into a full novel.

When she can't talk, can't walk and cannot do anything else. She can only write her diary. She said that this is the only way to show that she is still alive....

here are some lines from her diary.

If I were a flower, then now I would be a bud."

"I shall treasure the beginning of my youth without any regrets."

"This disease, why did it choose me?"

"Fate. It can't be put into words."

"I want to make a time machine and go back in time."

"If it wasn't for this disease,not only I could enjoy falling in love but I also wouldn’t have to rely on anyone and live by myself."

"I really don't want to say things such as 'I want to go back to how things were before.' "

"I recognize how I am right now, and I will continue to live on. Therefore I definitely won't run away. That's what I’ll do. Definitely, always. "

"Even if it's like that, I still want to stay here ,because this is the place where I am."

"If you look up at the sky after falling down ,the blue sky is also today stretching limitlessly and smiles at me...I'm alive."

"People shouldn’t dwell on the past. It's enough to try your best in all that you're doing now."

"Reality is too cruel, too brutal."

"I don’t even have the right to dream."

"As I think about the future, the tears will come out again."

"Mom, can I get married?"

**I didn't really cry through out the whole drama like what my friends experienced. But at the final 2 episodes, my tears finally drop. Surprise me as well, I never cry for any drama nor movie before this. It has been a long time since I cried, this is my first time after few years I guess..I though that I wouldn't cry for this drama, but maybe it is based on a true story. (felt relief after dropping some tears, at least I am still emotional)

I really have to salute the way Aya live with her life, she did everything she could to make sure she will not regret. She is tough and strong..not many people can continue live on when found out they have such incurable disease.


Aya Kito. ( 19 July 1962 - 23 May 1988) **Rest In Peace.**

even until now, her strong fighting spirit is still being spread through her family and her diary.

**the song in my blog now is from the drama itself. "Only Human by K"

ps: thank you Google for providing all these informations and pictures.

here is a little about the real Aya and some interview for the drama.








Appreciate what is in front of you~

year 2007~

year 2007, a special as we will be celebrating our 50th independent day~
In this special year, we have also launched Visit Malaysia 2007 to bring in more tourist to our country. Many events has been held through out the whole year and results shows that more tourists are visiting Malaysia!!!

In order to make this year a success, we even borrow this

from Germany for 1 year~ the main purpose is to allow everyone to enjoy the beautiful scenery of KL..it only cost rm15 for adults and rm8 for kids and senior citizen
too bad, I don't need to pay a cent but still have the chance to enjoy the beautiful KL view, day in and day out!!!

told ya!!! if not, where do you think I got all this nice pic?? haha
(so..next year when Eye on Malaysia no longer there, you guys can come to my place, I will charge you rm 2 per entry but with limited space~haha)

then we have Flora Fest 2007, to show all the beautiful flowers in Malaysia~
got competition as well..the only way to catch the public's attention in such event...

same thing that we can see every year~booooriiinggg!!!!( do they have any other better way to present the flowers??? lack of idea is it?? or lazy to think?? hmmmmmm)

then we have Formula One at Sepang Circuit..(we didn't take part in it for years since mr. Alex change to A1~)
after the event, some said we need to improve on facilities and repair everything..
furthermore, Singapore got their F1 circuit as well...we've been threaten!!! haha

we also have Le Tour de Langkawi 2007 (this is an annual event..so its normal)

besides all these events, lets see something that we really put our efforts on~haha

first of all..yes!!! is AFC Asian Cup 2007!!!! we are one of the co-host!!!
unfortunately, we got 0 point and knocked out in group stage~

the whole nation was humiliated by the result~ despite, we play like sh*t!!!

one is not enough, so because of year 2007..we host another international event!!!

yes, badminton!!! one sport that Malaysia have hope on it!!!

but luck was not on our side and home advantage hasn't give us any advantage in later stage~ our highly rated squad all knocked in a shocking manner!!! (another sad hosting event)

so, senior cant play well..we host kid's competition

tleast these kids are better, although they have been knocked out in group stage just like their "abang"...but atleast they got 1 point and concede lesser goals compare to those big bro~ haha

Is kind of sad when we are the host but winners are outsider~
so, through hosting...what did we get beside more tourists visiting our country??

how to celebrate 50th Independent,when our national squad are losing at home??
aih...probably 50 years later, we will host Olympic and World Cup to celebrate 100 years independent. (hopefully by then our sport will improve alot and home advantage does gives us advantages in every game~)

*************************************************************************************

Recommendation time!!!

just finish watching this lovely drama yesterday.."Tatta Hitotsu no Koi" also known as " Just Love"

it is about two young couple from different status get together...a very simple but sweet drama~ definitely touching at the same time..

"when you say that, it is like pouring sugar into cold water...no matter how much you stir it, it wont melt away" by Hiroto in this drama

************************************************************************************

how well did you know about Malaysian???

Malaysian got one special ability which is they take full advantages in their daily life, sounds cheap right?? nevermind, we use "opportunity"(slightly fancy)

examples
1.(parking) as long as there is space, even if you drive CRV, you can get parking anywhere.
2.(driving) as long as there is no car, you can make u-turn anywhere you want~
3.(shopping) when got free sample, you will take as many as you can(although you dont really need it)
4.(eating) you will use all the accompaniments you can get on your table, tissue paper or serviette as well.
5.(on the street) you will never miss a thing which happening on the street, from accident to
quarrel or even a dead mouse lying on the street. But will never approach to give a helping hand.
6. if anything happen, as long as you are not disable..run as far as you can!!(don't involve in it, it may cause your life)
7. will ignore on whatever that drop on the floor.Never pick up anything that drop on the
floor and put it back at the right place, because others may accuse you did it~
8. if lost and found, pick it and own it~
9. we use our time wisely, thats make us always late for appointment..and we need to rush for it
10.we only do things easy for ourself, never think about others..

**did I miss out anything??

Malaysian's favorite line " tak ape", "it's okay" , "nevermind", "mou siong gon"
that makes us special, we don't really like to involve in everything...

eg : street lights not working and everytime you are walking in the dark..but who cares??

wait until something big happen like robing or raping....then we will start complaining,taking action..but Malaysians are only temporary aggressive~

when something happen, will complain straight away...but after awhile, it will be like never happen at all

same as those who take action, while it is still fresh~ alot of plans and ideas will come out, telling everyone what will happen in near future....but after some times, it will back to normal...

errmm..I should say that Malaysian are like wave~

it wont stay too long...


wake up people!!! tengok depan la..sudah 2020~ (eh, sounds familiar..haha)

highly recommended

After watching "Cupid No Itazura" from crunchyroll.com. Once again I fell in love with J Drama,so I search around and found out this drama called "Gal Circle" The synopsis is not really special to me when I read it before I start watching it.

It is about a cowboy name Shinosuke from Arizona came to Shibuya, Japan to help his guidance, Geronimo to find a girl called Imoko. While completing his mission, he becomes a new type hero by helping the Shibuya-Gals to solve problems.This innocent cowboy who don't know the culture of Shibuya City has taught the Gals some valuable lesson by applying his own weird but effective way.

Shinosuke with the Gals.


this has show the complicated connection between the characters. Actually there are few more such as the patrolman, Ichinose who allowed Shinosuke to stay at his place and eventually they became close friends.

Geronimo's favorite line which I like the most is "life is like a boomerang, if you throw it out and have no courage to catch it back, you will not enjoy the fun"

This is a funny yet touching drama,hopefully you guys will enjoy this drama which I think I did learn something from it.

ps: this might be my last blog until my final exam which starts at 6 Aug until 8 Aug...study time!!!(hopefully I can do well)

pspsps: Happy Birthday to Charles, finally turn 19 today!!! haha
