An hour for lunch
July 7, 2008 | Category: Short Rants | 1 Comment
Four younglings sitting in an opposite table kept giggling and turning around to look at us.
“Che che, is he your boyfriend?” the little girl asks.
A very straightforward question, something only kids seem to be capable of doing naturally without fear of being told off. I’m a little embarrassed but try to keep a straight face, pretending to be distracted by the very interesting wall tiles.
“No la,” my friend replies.
Most people our age wouldn’t think assume the same thing. We’re too different, in terms of popularity, looks, and charm. …Kids.
One of them, the oldest boy of the lot, stands up and says “If like that, good.” he said with a straight face. I swore he gave me a cold glance. Dude probably likes her.
I look at my watch and realize there’s only 5 minutes left of my lunch hour. Wouldn’t want the boss to return only to find me not there. On my first day too.
I say goodbye to her, and do a brisk jog back to the office.

Why the .mov hate?
July 5, 2008 | Category: Short Rants | Leave a Comment
Flickr and Youtube hate .mov files for some reason. I tried editing it into mpeg under iMovie, but the damned program keeps rejecting it. Fucking hell. Needless to say, the uploaded video turned out jumpy and I have no idea where the breaking glass sounds came from. Anyway, just messing around with Photobooth.
Woke up at 1 in the afternoon because last night’s caffeine kept me up. Thanks for the wake up call San =p Die la you, got the same driving instructor as me. Sure die. Hahaha.
Feeling horribly vain in the past 24 hours for some weird reason.
And Cutiemish has uploaded a new video. My eyes were on her fingers the whole time, I swear.

Just got back from Starbucks with Ben, Colin, Boon and Li Ching. It’s nice to see the old Sigma gang a few times a year.
Anyway, not sure why but I’m feeling a little vain so I’ll post up two pictures of myself taken from my sister’s camera. My waist has slimmed down a little :D Still abit on the chubby side but at least I know there’s improvement @ results from my hardwork. ^^
Internship
July 4, 2008 | Category: Short Rants, Understanding The Female | 2 Comments
I can has shiney new internship?
I will be starting an internship with a law firm on Monday. It’ll probably be 2 months long, so I guess this means my holidays are over. It’s a 5day a week job, so yeah… guess it’ll keep my lazy butt on the go. I actually asked for this internship, and wasn’t forced to by my dad or anything. It should be interesting to find out how a law firm works and how a lawyer’s day to day work is like.
The hardest part so far was finding suitable work clothes @ button up shirts. I have almost no shirts.
Anyway, got a very happy sms today. Someone might be going to HELP as well, and while this brings great joy to my heart, there’s also mixed feelings. I wanted to start HELP fresh… but on the other hand I’m dying to see this person again.
Briefing on my internship will commence today. For privacy reasons, I won’t disclose my workplace or much details about the course of the internship.

Downloaded Adium 1.2.6 (can now see Status Message of contacts, yay!), so to all Adium users out there, go update now! Also, be sure to check out their Xtras page. Alot of goodies for customizing there. Plus hor, the upcoming Adium 1.3 can supposedly be used to chat with your facebook accounts! if that’s true, then I’m reviving my fb account just so I can use it on Adium.
Note: Going to meet a lawyer regarding internship at 3 o’clock later. Why am I so nervous?

The more I open myself to people the more I feel they don’t like what they see.
It might be just me, or it could be real.
Either way… I regret coming out of my shell. I just want to go back in and hide from everyone. The thought of being dejected once more… I don’t want to go through it again. People scare me.
It’s always safer inside.

I’m beginning to wonder if my decision to start uni in September instead of July was such a good idea. When I’m free and have all the time in the world, my mind begins to ponder. About lost chances and wrong decisions, and fleeing when I could’ve made a stand. About a face I’ll never see again. It’s all very depressing to think about, but I can’t help it when I’m given the luxury of time.
Must’ve been since Christmas, but it feels good to finally cry real tears after so long.

Saiful Bukhari Azlan (left) became Anwar’s personal aide after the March 8 general elections. This picture of him was posted on a blog on February 27th 2008. The man standing next to him is Khairil Annas Jusoh, an aide to the Deputy Prime Minister Najib (according to said blog).
Personal aide to Anwar Ibrahim makes police report against him on ground of sodomy.
Pakatan Rakyat makes a press statement, saying there might be a plot to kill Anwar.
Anwar seeks political refuge in the Turkish embassy in KL.
Anwar blogs while hiding in the Turkish embassy. (he has long built political connections with Turkey’s premier)
The police have stated that they will do their best to investigate this claim, and uphold justice.
My question to readers of the my blog is this: Why would Anwar, the man who is called the Prime Minister-in waiting, who has everything to gain and everything to lose, do such a thing? It would be political suicide. Even IF he had done any sodomy 10 years ago, don’t you think he’d have learnt his lesson and is fully aware of the consequences to his political career?
Do you really believe that the man who is on the brink of overthrowing the government would be this careless?

In other news,
Badawi says that there should not be an open forum to discuss ketuanan melayu, as it would make malays angry. This is in response to the Malaysian Bar Council’s (my future place as a lawyer, hopefully) upcoming forum discussing the issue. Link
Malaysian Bar still silent on the matter. Link
