From Yahoo news:
Ahmad Ismail, a division chief of the United Malays National Organisation (UMNO) which leads the Barisan Nasional coalition, had called Chinese "squatters" and warned of repercussions if they tried to seek political power.
The patience of the Malays and Muslims has a limit. Do not push us to the wall, as when we turn back we will be forced to push the Chinese in the interests of our own survival," Ahmad said in a press conference Monday.
"The Chinese should not try to be like the Jews in America -- it is not enough they control the economy, now they want political control," he said.
Lol. Where is the love?
Food for thought: "What would Malaysia be like without its Chinese population?"
hell on earth
Super tiring week at sispec this week. Since it started last sunday, have been sleeping past 12 every night some days even up to 2+ am and waking up at 5. Navigation exercise 1, SAR21 and SAW live firing, navigation exercise 2 back to back from wednesday to friday. Wtf planning is this lol. Luckily for me both navigation exercises went well, were able to find all the checkpoints. Hopefully exercise wanderer next week will be a breeze too. Because next week is another screwed up week. With a totally lousy book out, day out night in............till then, fingers crossed.
First week at sispec was quite slack. Didn't do much other than lectures and 5bx and canteen breaks.Apparently BSLC has been shortened to 8 weeks, all the more better since sergeants always say at ASLC they don't tekan you as much. Well, but I'm hoping I do better than ASLC :)
"Army changes you, for better or worse, but you have to remember who you truly are at the end of this 2 years"
didn't feel right to me. Went back to malaysia after one night of rest and still didn't feel very rested! Probably because perry and I spent hours walking from town to home. haha, reached home at about 2am. What a mistake!
Then, at Malaysia I spent most of the time sleeping. Don't know where all this appetite for sleep has come from, but most probably ARMY. Bleah, can't even enjoy the festive season properly. Leaving for Pasir Ris soon. To suffer more hell. Oh well at least the next time I see this page again I would have completed the outfield components of BMT.
Happy Chinese New Year to all!
Attend C for 2 days. So here I am. Apparently have to redo field camp because i missed 1.25 days of it. WTF. Oh well, one thing I've learnt in the army is to look far but not too far. So am just looking forward to Chinese New Year for now.
Just something I read on Yahoo! News:
Clinton, asked about the prospect of another term in the White House for a Clinton after eight years of her husband and 12 years of a member of the Bush family, took aim at both Bushes.
"It did take a Clinton to clean after the first Bush and I think it might take another one to clean up after the second Bush," she said at the Kodak Theatre in Los Angeles.
ends with me having food poisoning wth. Apparently my whole family got it too, from Christmas lunch over at my aunt's place. Terrible shit lol. Being a first timer I must say having food poisoning is not funny at all. You feel like puking all the time, yet you still have the feeling of massive diarrhoea. You got chills and aches all over. And apparently I puked so hard my past shoulder injury seems to have found this a good excuse to breathe the air of this world again, or maybe it just knows that 2007 is ending.
Anywayssss going on a cruise next wednesday. wooh.
all the good times gone?

cheers to leonard wooh.
is a damn nice movie imo!
Watched the movie version which is really really sad, but more fitting than the DVD version. Supernatural, but the themes of cause and effect, love and sacrifice are all very well done.
And the word 'fuck-bag' is really overused lol.
BUT REALLY REALLY SAD IN THE END WTF.
A levels ended for me since tuesday. Not totally unexpected, the feeling of relief, joy and peace did not settle in after the last paper. As everyone, ie. perry, yanlong, minkai, has noticed we have been playing way too much during the exam period anyway. lol. Oh well, don't think I did really well for A levels. Don't even think I can get 3As what more can I say about 4. At this point I am still only having vague pictures of what I am going to study for my tertiary education. And more and more do I realise, that I am not really focused on anything, and am the kind of person who just does what he is given, not seek what he wants. Hopefully in time that would change, besides if I do not get med, law or whatever scholarship I may aim for in the near future, I got 2 years to think about what to do. Slightly comforting huh. The gift and curses of being male.
As usual I seem to have lumped a few points in 1 paragraph thereby showing how little organisational skill I have. o.0
So with the end of the A levels also come with it the ends of many things, which I already mentioned a few posts back. On hindsight, leaving school now, ending lessons, losing a few friends, escaping teachers, doesn't look at all as appealing as they did when I was back in primary school, secondary school, hell even J1. boohoo.
Anyway, in Sports:
England crashed out of the Euro 2008! Lost 3-2 to Croatia. I really have to say the Crouch goal is spectacular and he should really be the hero of the match. The Croatian last goal was totally noob and all I can say is that the goal keeper is not experienced enough lol. (as if i am) Well, hopefully now England will stop being so spoilt, lumbering into each major soccer tournament with sheer luck instead of their expected prowess. Maybe a new manager, with reinforced vigour and spirit will push them on to be the best team in the world! Go England! But for now, and 2008, GO HOLLAND!
In recent news:
My brother got hospitalised again. This time with irregular heartbeat. Only this morning did I realise that he has been hospitalised many times before. High fever, dengue, bronchitis and now this. What a weak sauce =p. Anyway fuck, man, take caare of yourself and get fit. I don't think I can last any longer in this world if something were to happen to you.
So went to NUH this morning, almost had breakfast at the kopitiam. But then when my mother suggested it, I had a rather severe reaction. Like "HELL NO!". Apparently despite all my thinking, my supposed nonchalance, I still subconciously miss my father, and despair at the thought of his last moments in this world. Everytime people chat about topics relating to their parents, I just get this very dull and highly envious feeling together. Its not that they are tactless or anything, can't expect everyone to know about my misery seeing as I did not do much telling.
Also, it seems that the world I see has lost much appeal and colour and vibrance compared to few years ago. The way I view beauty, the means that I get that warm fuzzy feeling in my heart has all changed. I almost get irritated everytime someone complains about something materialistic, swearing they would give something up for something money can buy. Its almost as if I live in a different world. Perhaps, it can be said that I've gained a different perspective, as a bright side to this dark matter. But what the fuck, why do all good things come to an end... in fact, they come to an end earlier for me. I would much rather be ignorant, stupid or whatever just to have my father back. But if I were that, would I ever learn to miss my father the way I do now?
In local news:
I got an email from CMPB that I am PES A at last! and I will probably enlist in January but not sure of the date, which is weird because we are supposed to get enlistment notice 2 months before the thing. Maybe I got scammed. bleah.
