What the f*** happened to Man U?

ESPNsoccernet.com - England - Fergie: We face Euro exit if we play like that: "Fergie: We face Euro exit if we play like that"

You betcha! Not only Europe my fine feathered coach, but the friggin Premiership itself. I am so disappointed. I cannot believe we lost 4-1 to that annoying Middlesbrough! I hate them! I hate them! I hate them! Who supports Middlesbrough anyway? Must be only those who work in their heavy and high density industrial parks I guess. Sigh. What shit. Need to get help from a posologist to see how much pain killers I need to take now - for the soul.

If you have a lot of chest hair,
Show it like a FOB*,
Immigration coming to get you,
Marry like a FOB,

I am a nice FOB,
I work in the IT**,
When you call tech support,
You will get me.

I am a bachelor,
And I work hard,
Come and marry me
So I can get the Green-card.

White people, they can’t understand me,
Their jobs are now in New Delhi.

Its Friday again and its a few days to DepaRaya.

Its Friday. Its 6.16. Am still at work. Had to jump out of the marathon meeting that started 8.15 this morning to get on a conference call. Going to KL Hilton tonight. Not sure if it will be good. Last year was not that great. Very de expensive but not de very de gud. I guess it depends on what taste-bud you carry. Fusion food? No way Jose. Dun like.

Not sure what time I can leave here yet. Meantime blab blab blab. How often have you been in such calls and don't know what the heck we wanna do. You know what I do? You betcha! I blogged this entry! *LOL

Is KELING a derogatory word?

Is it? I have always wondered about this. I want to understand where that word came from. For blacks, its nigger - i guess from the word negro. Not sure where negro comes from though.

So Keling must have its origins too right? I read this on some kind of blog searching for meaning..

tabulas.com: designers_n_artists: "
Recently I've been reading that the word keling is a derogatory term for Indians - which was news to me, having only encountered the word this year. Or so I thought.

Okay, I don't mean to offend so sorries in advance if I do, but isn't keling-yan (keling-human) how you say Indian person in Cantonese?

As in....Malay-yan (malay person), Thong-yan (chinese person), Keling-yan (Indian person)?"


And actually, there are so many sites that discuss this. So is Mat Saleh, Mat Rempit, Mat Motor, Ang More, Gwai Lo, Chink, Apek, Ah Kau also racist? Hmm. Dunnolah. And if I look at it, the Indians are most racist with their cast system. From the Brahmin (fair Indian) to pariah. I also a bit blur. Anybody care to comment. Pixie? Catwoman? [Serious Nih]

IIU can make non-Muslims wear headscarves - Malaysiakini

IIU can make non-Muslims wear headscarves - Malaysiakini
My my my. I did not know this. I guess a uniform is a uniform. So if a school says, mini-skirts are the rage, then all those women who wear scarves need to comply too? It would sure look funny to me!

What do you think boys and gals? I think its a bit extreme no? But I guess people who want to go learn in an insitution must abide by its rules. If they already knew this then ok. But if they go in and THEN change policy, hmm. I dunno. Imagine if they pay you a low basic and say that as a matter of policy most of remuneration is based on benefits. Then after you join, benefits structure changes. My view? Well if you accepted the stupid deal in the first place then you deserve what you get! If they did not tell you that ABCD is not subjected to policy then THATS a real problem.

It would be funny to see pixie in a headscarf though. REAL funny. [Heh]

My blog is WORTHLESS.

Well. Nothing new here. Blogs are nothing but rants and raves of people who think that their average lives are actually in fact INTERESTING. Well, mine is. Not everybody else's. Haha. [yeah right]

This is sooooooooooo funny.

Twinkle twinkle little star, how I wonder what you are?
Up above the world so high , like a diamond in the sky

When the blazing sun is gone, when he nothing shines upon,

Then you show your little light, twinkle, twinkle all the night.

Then the traveller in the dark, thanks you for your tiny spark,

He could not see which way to go, if you did not twinkle so.

In the dark blue sky you keep, and often through my curtains peep,

For you never shut your eye, 'till the sun is in the sky.

As your bright and tiny spark lights the traveller in the dark,

Though I know not what you are - twinkle, twinkle little star.

Now, click and hear this.

If you do not laugh. You are either an deaf, dumb or catwoman. Hahahaha.

Independence Day. Everyday?

"Sooner or later, everyone will fail me. Every single one of you. Friends, lovers, bosses. Even families, at some point or another.

My independence day, (no, don't wave that made-in-china plastic flag please) is when I stop being dependent on others.

I alone am the author of my happines, and Allah, the finisher of my faith"


Fara No "H" - Remember its Fara. Not Farah. Found this interesting blog.


I like that statement. Why? Its true. Don't you think?


Sigh. Monday beckons. Monday blues already here.

You know that song? The Mickey Mouse song? M-I-C-K-E-Y M-O-U-S-E, Micky Mouse, Micky Mouse!

And blah blah... Learnt this other version from Yasmin Yusoff (I think that's how its spelt), that goes... M-O-N-D-A-Y S-U-C-K-S, Monday Sucks, Monday Sucks!

And on and on. Geeze. Not looking forward to tomorrow. So tired. Must be the fasting month or something. My temper also a bit whacky. Brain going nuts. Nobody cares and why should they. Everyone has their own issues to handle. Life is just so fair sometimes. [heh]

Wow. An Afghan girl. 17 years later.


Something to ponder. The poor Afghans. They deserve better. She looks as if she has been through hell and back. Sigh. And we just complain about the cards that was dealt to us. May God have mercy on our souls.

Danger. Danger. Danger.

Just realized the need to remain anonymous. My pic is just waaaaaaaaaaay to recognizable. Here goes the "Blurred Image".

I listen a lot. Do you?

A Sad Day.


I would like to express my sincere condolence to our dear Prime Minister's on his wife's passing. I guess we do not know her as much as the previous first lady but I really look up to her for being by the hubby's side despite her illness in the past couple of years. It must have been really tough putting that brave face.

Lets observe a minute's silence if you read this for the first time. Al-Fatihah.

Whoa. News? What news?

Sometimes one ponders how things will turn out in the end. Do we ever know. Sometime we can plan for some things. Sometimes it happens and sometimes it does not. Sometimes we never plan anything and things happen too.

In this case, no plan and hence there should be no problems in whatever happens. Now given the situation, what's the plan? No plan? Hmm, not likely to succeed without a plan. [Heh. how obvious is that statement?]

People around me are just sooooo busy. Meetings after meetings. Sometimes, I laugh. I associate the things around me with some of the reality tv shows that I watch. Its quite bizzare. Its fascinating, fun etc. There are also plenty of downsides. One of them is that you cannot switch it off and watch later. You cannot NOT participate. You it. Its a game of survivor, amazing race and the apprentice roled into one. Enjoy the ride. What else you gonna do? Jump off the rails and er... die?

God's Revelation

Tonight, while praying Terawikh at my mom's house, I had an epiphany. It was almost an outer body experience. Its almost as if I made a deal with God. That's scary. Really scary but very calming at the same time. Maybe one day I will get the guts to tell you what was that all about.

The Quran is God's words. Its the final chapter of a series of guidance sent to us. We will have no excuse not to go read it - and understand it. So, forget reading all those books you read. This should be at the top of your list. Even if you are of a different faith, there really is no harm in reading it. Our life on earth is but one day in God's. The night is our stay in our graves and tomorrow is judgement day. So start early. Hopefully I will. I do not understand, why most people, including yours truly do not live by this book. I hope I can become a changed man moving forward. Its like cigarettes I guess and not many can really follow through. This is the challenge I give myself.

I think most people will read a book thrown down by an alien from the sky than God. Such is faith these days.

My Blog? Not quite. But I like the sound of that! Haha.
