Here We Go

Hi all, well its finally here, after planning since before enlisting to NS(2003), my 60km journey around singapore with sufian is gonna now begin. We aim to cover it in about 30 hours tops, and I hope we can, cos the weather has been absolutely merciless I am completely burnt from training today. The worse thing is that I have had only about 5-6 hours of sleep, and have just gotten back from training, so I did not realli get my fair share of rest. Nevertheless the good news is that I managed to carbo load myself just now so its all good.

I hope to update you guys with pictures and everything when I get back, its gonna be a fun and challeging trip, but I have faith that we will make it intact. In the mean time I hope evrybody has a good long holiday I will see u guys in about a days time. Peace.

Oh and one more thing, a line I wish to share from The Departed, which I watched on DVD yesterday.

"Don't let yourself be a product of the environment, let the environment be a product of you."

Out.

Why Siti?

I was just reading the Life Newspaper, and I have to get something that has been bothering me for quite a while. Hah, not bothering in a bad way, just soemthing which has been on my mind for quite a while. Basically, wat the heck is happening to Siti Nurhaliza? Ok for those who arent reali aware of who she is, the basic is dat she WAS some superstar in Malaysia, the so called it-girl in the malaysia/singapore/indonesia malay entertainment industry I think, pretty, talented, model daughter, and wat have you lar.

But then, as is custom in Malaysia, the pretty actresses and singers, or even if they are not famous but just a sweet young thing, will go along to marry some damn old datuk/sultan like can be 20 years their senior that typa thing. Haha, typical I guess, is it reali cos of love and not money? Who I am to judge anyways. Well the good news is that Siti did not marry some Sultan who was like 108 or something, but I think she could have done much better than her husband called Datuk K by the media. Well I guess he is rich and all, but seriously Siti why? I mean there are so many other good looking guys your age. This guy is like 40 plus coming to 50, has kids from a previous marriage (not a good track record) and all. And plus, he is not handsome! As in I know what a handsome 40 plus year old man looks like, and I've always heard this popular theory of how we choose our partners which some look in equal parity to us. Well, Siti's got the short end of that stick. All I can say is, I hope that she is truly happy with him lar, and perhaps there is a lot a lot more to Datuk K other than the obvious. AND, also, what the heck she is gaining weight (this is super confirmed, when weight gain can be seen in the face, it is realli weight gain) and she is not pregnant, so i guess her star value is realli falling. Sighz, siti, siti.

Hmmm, in all the time this blog has been up this must be the first time I have spoken about the malay entertainment industry. Those of you who know me know that I DO NOT watch any malay programs, as in totally. DO NOT listen to malay music (indonesian bands do not count cos they are actually playing music). DO NOT read the berita harian (due to immensely poor standard of reporting and lack of analysis). DO NOT read those stupid magazines like Manja or what have you. So this is a first.

On a final note, I got news and an invite today that Irshad is getting married! Irshad is a realli nice guy from my batch and he is getting married at 23! I tell you man, when ppl around you are getting married its realli a sign that you are getting old. But good for him, I hope he is prepared for married life though! Sheesh man, I should be feeling fine at 23,but somehow I feel damn old. I still rem how me and sufian told ourselves that we wanna become lawnbowl champions by 20 so that we can be world champions for like 40 years or something. haha, time passes way too fast sometimes, so I have to consistently remind myself ot live every minute fruitfully.

Out.
