the flood

as you all are informed, through electronic media or from other people's mouth, the southern part of Malaysia were flooded, every cars had become boat since then, perodua Kancil has become kayak, proton wira has become banana boat, toyota altis turned out to be speed boat and finally the Estima became star cruise~~~

this is a picture grabbed by a friend in tangkak..observe the picture carefully, you will notice that the wheels of the car has no longer be seen..though the water level is considered as low compared to other part of johor..

so, let me introduce to you my hometown (so bad of me, now only i intend to introduce when it is flooded, sigh)..its name is Tangkak, of which i heard my grandma saying that the name is gotten from the malay word "tangkap". she said that in old days, there were alot of mice strolling along the street of tangkak, BRAVO!!!! and then by chance or otherwise, the name "tangkak" has been evolved from the word "tangkap tikus"..well, it sounds pretty true, but i doubt it..LEGEND~~~

next, the location..it's situated on the boudaries of melaka and johor..so, it takes me 20 mins at most to go melaka from my house..the famous landmarks here is "gunung ledang"..i am sure all of you must have heard of "gunung ledang", from the well-known movie "puteri gunung ledang". frankly speaking, i m not interested at all in the movie, so dun ask me how was it, if you wana know eagerly, i can demonstrate a live show--"putera gunung ledang", yes i am, the GREAT PUTERA GUNUNG LEDANG...furthermore, there is a waterfall here, the scene is breathtaking(not really actually), and the water is clean (not really too, but it is always cleaner than every other waterfall in malaysia).
so, this is the real picture of gunung ledang waterfall..this is the highest part of the waterfall, which is the only place i will go everytime i have been to the waterfall. however, it takes 20 mins to climb uphill and is very very tiring..worth it afterall..

Gunung leadang

next, the life in tangkak is boring, no shopping complex for you to kill your time, there are only these so called "supermarket" which sells grocery and clothes and so on. however dun look down on it, it is a three-floored supermarket, equipped with a great range of items..similar to other rural area(actually tangkak shouldn't be categorized as rural town, but a developing town), there are plenty of mamak stalls here, the real mamak STALL, not like those in kl which are actually shoplot-business..well, i will snap some picture down when i get my camera..

next, tangkak is full of "loansharks", yeah, we call them "dai yi long" or "ah long"..loansharks always give people the impression that they are fashioned in an olden ways, bully people and scribble ppl's houses if the debt is not settled..you all got it wrong for all these while..the loadsharks here are extremely rich, their houses are spacious, cozy and magnificent, they always change their cars (update their car to be exact)..u can always see the latest BMW or whatever expensive cars here once they are launched..and most importantly, they dun kill people, or either murder people.actually those people who borrow money from them are not being killed, but they commit suicide knowing that they couldn't settle their debt. the loansharks here somehow do a lot of charity, they do it generously, perhaps to ease their conscience. they won't hesitate to give out money when there is donation for education..and the growing number of loansharks marks a significant effect, the students here (primary school students) will somehow aspire to be loanshark and fill up their ambition column with "ah long", that obviously isn't a good sign..

tangkak is famous of cloth which malays use it to tailor their baju kurung..the week or two before hair raya aidilfitri, u can see plenty of buses park at the bus station, and go on to the main street, u will see throngs of people in the cloth shops along the main street..i think there are at least 10 shop which sells cloth along the street..as we know, chinese are rarely buying cloth to make their cloth, they buy the clothings in shopping complex..but that is not the case for malays, they prefer to buy cloth, of different embroidery, colors, and pattern, as baju kurung emphasizes on colourful appearance..anyway, to tell the truth, i have never stepped into those cloth shop, what for i go there?takkan i want to make myself a baju kebaya?

next, the cuisine..i m weary eating the food here since they have been my "food" for almost 18 years..beef noodle and wantan mee are among the drooling food i would recommend to you here..they are of handmade mee, unlike those in kl which are made by machine, that explains why the mee in kl are not soft..so, have a good try here if u pass by tangkak..the scent and the taste of the food will stay forever in ur mind..

At the verge of leaving

yea, the title says it all..i m leaving, off to Australia soon if i have already made up my mind..still, i put the acceptance of University of New south Wales on hold, have not summited the registration fee. right at the moment, i m struggling, struggle to leave all behind, my family, my hometown, my friends, and everything i am having here..i don't want to go, if only i have a desired course offer for me here..two months more, yeah, i m enrolling into the February intake..i cannot make up my mind at all so far, i cant, i m reluctant to leave my everything of mine AGAIN, yet my leaving is for my own future..i m not that indecisive, just that it's really a very difficult situation to make up my mind, the dilemma drives me to the verge of breakdown..every time i look at my parents, my mind would take a swift change that tells me not to leave..

furthermore, i m leaving off alone, alone means really alone, without any company or either any friends with the same background. my parents are not going to accompany me there, i have to settle everything on by myself..

one more month, one more month, one more month..time flies, the day is approaching, the time to make up my mind is no longer long, everything seems come altogether addling my brain, almost suffocate me..

what should i do?which side should i take?i m helpless...

cruelty

Ha, dun be afraid, it's just somehow described with exaggeration. i have come across these two pictures, it tells the cruelty for a pathetic man. Actually i have ever thought that these picture were created by a man who was despairing or somehow encountered with the heartbreaking breakups then prompted him to do so.
so, this picture intrigued me with the formula created out of human's brain..frankly speaking, sometimes i just simply admire those people with such a creativity in them. so, all i can say is the man is way too depressed to have written this formula..
how about this one?actually this statistical data can be used upon both men n women. it depends on what kind of person u are and ur other half. nothing is for sure, but this scenario is a must to happen in your life, regardless which stage of ur life it invades..so, watch out!!!
this is a random picture taken in pangkor..sometimes a candid shot does bring a hidden words or somehow trigger ur imagination for the picture itself. life is weird, it looks like a simple action like ambling along the seaside. However, it depends on urself what kind life u want it to be, u wan it to be darkened just like u hunched ur back ambling along the beach or u wan it to be liven up just like u lift ur head welcoming the coming breeze to embrace u..

random

Have you ever seen this kind of dog before?regardless u see it from tv, or around ur neighbourhood, or u just saw it randomly along the street..let me introduce to you here..he is a pug (the breed), and he is quite tiny in size, the tiny i mean is in term of height, but not weight..he is quite chubby, his legs are nowhere near long, but his body is big, so, it makes him looks shorter and chubbier..

yeah, as you can see, he is ugly..i dun think anyone here will find him cute at the first sight..
"ewww, damn ugly, i definitely won't keep tis kind of dog!!!" this is most likely what people will say when they see him for the first time..
i remember a friend of mine had once told me that she would like to keep one pug for herself..of course this has triggered my curiousity, not that this is impossible, but among all the other breed including the lovely shitzu, what's the reason behind this that she had chosen pug..so, the answer i got from her was very very very shocking n funny.

"because rite, pug is ugly, and he is short, so if i have been given the chance, i wil keep him..when i walk him out, people will notice my beauty as the pug wil accentuate my beauty and my height!!!" she said.

omg, for a moment i couldnt accept the response i got from her..though i knew that she was half-jokingly answered me..but then i really thought that was logical...ahahaha..

so, what's so special about this dog?yeah, the most stunning part is that he can pretend he is dead at any time any place once the order is given out..without another command that stop him from doing so, he will keep on pretending..this has shown that pug is a compliant dog, obedient and brilliant...

after a long while, when u see him again, u will find him cute..indeed really cute, nothing is better than an obedient dog, and one thing for sure, he is easy to be taken care, and u certainly won't take half an hour to bath him as chow chow do, or other furry dogs..

so, give him a chance when u re thinking of keep a pet..

dumbass man in front of the pretty

well, nowadays the inner beauty is no longer exist, while the appearance itself of a woman has taken over..i have come across this article about how goddamn stupid a man was, and how trickery the pretty was to evade herself from any trouble she has caused..all i can say is, everything is mutual, we have smart and trickery person, and of course we have dumbass who are trapped..

A woman and a man are involved in a car accident… Both of their cars are totally demolished but amazingly neither of them are hurt.

After they crawl out of their cars, the woman says, “So you’re a man, that’s interesting. I’m a woman. Wow, just look at our cars! There’s nothing left, but fortunately we are unhurt…

This must be a sign from God that we should meet and be friends and live together in peace for the rest of our days.”

Flattered, the man replied, “Oh yes, I agree with you completely!”

This must be a sign from God!” The woman continued, “And look at this, here’s another miracle. My car is completely demolished but this bottle of wine didn’t break…

Surely God wants us to drink this wine and celebrate our good fortune.”

Then she hands the bottle to the man. The man nods his head in agreement, opens it and drinks half the bottle and then hands it back to the woman. The woman takes the bottle, immediately puts the cap back on, and hands it back to the man.

The man asks, “Aren’t you having any?”

The woman replies, “No. I think I’ll just wait for the police…”

so now, can u conclude that is the man pretty dumb or the woman is pretty smart?ahahahahah....

family-dad

it's quite rarely that i blog about my family..in the old days when i was still a kindergartener or primary school goer, my dad was a very stern looking father, he had never joked with us, had never chattered with us like other father and son..in his mind, father was to earn a lot of money to shoulder up the family's expenditure n luxurious life, while mother was to stay at home and take care of the children, that's why he never allowed my mum to work outside..moreover, he never knew how to express himself well, how to communicate with us. neither he knew the proper way to love us..the conversation between me and my dad has never lasted more than 15 minutes, i even doubted there is 10 minutes long..in this case, mother has to take up the responsibility becoming of the middle party to keep up the intimacy between dad and us..whatever happened to us or whatever stuffs we need are passed on to my dad through my mum..it can be said that we hardly talk about our life with him..

time flowed, he metamorphosed into another person who is more caring and easy-going when i hit puberty and channeled my thinking way into another stage..he started to call me up when i went to kl for further studies despite the little amount of calls i had received from him..he started appreciating the warming moment of family moment, he himself also started to realize how important his children are meant to him..he knew how to care for his children who had grown up, though is still not directly, we are pleased upon his changes..frankly speaking, i m not used to his changes since i m more adapted to the old him, who has the dignity and stern-looking in him..however, i m exhilarated for his better change..

he has his sense of humour now..i would laugh my guts out every time i overheard the conversation between him and my mum..
"the cheque are settled, hand them to the person, i will not be home in three days time"dad said.
"yi, where is he going?"i asked my mum
"nowhere, he always talks in this way, like he is going somewhere for fun"
"...........................apa tu? how could he just raise something up from nothing?" cold sweat drenched me on....

another case happened in this way..we were watching the drama series, the hero's father was courting with a pretty young woman since his wife was dead long ago..while the hero was unhappy with the camaraderie of his father and the young woman..
"wah, so old still can get a pretty young girlfren, damn blissful" my dad said to my mum.
"do u think i can get one also for myself when u die?"he asked my mum
"yeah, sure u can"my mum answered.
"then u better die faster lor, dun spoil my good encounter"dad continued.
walao eh, at tat moment, i was like almost bang my head onto the table..
"sien , if next time i get a new girlfriend, will u refuse to talk to me?"dad turned to me.
"............"silent all the while....
then he chuckled and continued watching the series..

omg, one of his intolerable habit----talk non-stop and alot of sound effects and comments while watching movie or series..sometimes u wil laff ur ass off when u listen to his words..damn hilarious i tell u...

after all, he is a good father..i wanted a car, he gave it to me..i wanted to study in australia, he says he will afford me to go there..i want to take petroleum engineering, he agrees while the course has nothing to do with his business..i say i will help him with his business, he asked me to study whatever course i want, not to worry about him..i wanted to drive to kuantan and anywhere further, he trusted in me this new license holder and allowed me to do this..he never set us in sufferings, never put us in worries, always give us the best..thx dad..
