Dangerous Moron

WARNING!
Beware of motorcyclist with the number plate :
PDT 262
STAY AWAY FROM HIM! He is DANGEROUS and is a LIABILITY to Penangites. Shame on him.!

hERE'S WHAT HAPPENED:
I was in my uncle's car along Pg Road when this moron swerved near us and nearly banged into our car. What's worse, he was on the phone and he wasn't wearing a helmet. 2 offences. My uncle honked him. What suprised us was, he slowed down and stopped right in front of our car and block our way, letting the other cars wait behind us. He stepped down like a GANGSTER and demanded we wind down our window. He demanded to know why the heck were we honking him? And as usual a lot of words blurted out but my aunt took out her phone and tried calling the police.

Then, maybe he was afraid we were going to take a picture of him or call the police. So he walked with "style" which made him look as if he had big dangling balls and rode off.
Damn that guy ! If we were'nt aware of him at the side of the car, he would have crashed and been knocked down by a car behind. Maybe he deserved that! His skulls could've been crushed and his intestines blurting out if it werent us he met. Let's hope he meets another bigger fish than him next time!

1st Day of Holidays

It's Saturday and everyone's happy on Saturdays. Now it's even better it's the holidays. Nevertheless, I had to be knocked out of my sleep at 5.30am to prepare myself for the Olympic Day Run which was organized by Mcdonalds and endorsed by the IOC(international olympics committee). Well our dear PJ teacher was going to give us marksfor our PJ for our participation in this.

There're marks involved right? So, every classmate of mine became very eager to join it- just for the marks. That's how it is nowadays. Marks, marks, marks. Even some consider the others who help teachers and who try to remain in the teachers' good books as "P.L.Ps" or simply the "po-fesionals". WHere has all the love and sincerity gone???

Anyway, the registration part at Youth Park wasnt that amusing. It was quite unorganized and late. Firstly, we did the warm ups with Ronald Macdonald, some aerobic professionals and even the GM and MD of Mcdonalds Malaysia, not to forget Dr Teng Hock Nam. Then the race begun.

At first, I was at front line of the starting line and managed to maintain there but my bladder was bothering me. So I had to make a detour to the loo. Anyway I finished the route which starts and ends at Youth Park(7km or so they say) in 40 minutes. Although it may not be any achievement but there's the self satisfaction. When I reached the finishing line and was queuing up to register my no. for those dont know within how many placing, there was this man who cut the queue to get himself a better placing. Now this is an example of uncivilized Pgites. Tak tahu malu! PEI!

We also got free Marigold products and Ribena. As for the lucky draw, 3 of my classmates got hampers and 6 tickets to Genting altogether. Hence we are planning a trip to Genting in the year end holidays.

Today is also a special day for my school as it is it's 90th birthday or anniversary. I was in charge of the Robotics Club's Exhibition so I had to rush from Youth Park back home then back to school for my duty.The crowd was not as much as expected but I guess there will be more tomorrow as tonight will be the gala dinner thing . The school is doing it in a big scale this year. They even invited famous Pg hawker food like the Pg Road Cendol and Char Koay Teow,laksa...... to my school to set up stalls for the 3000 plus plus visiting alumni.

Negarakuku

I guess everyone already know about this Malaysian guy in Taiwan- the singer of the already famous "Negarakuku" in Youtube which as been stripped down recently. He apologized already but yet the government will not let him go so easily. They are saying HE MUST BE PUNISHED. Perhaps what they do may be right but if this guy were in the States I guess they won't penalize him and even stop him. FREEDOM OF SPEECH....
I donot know how the Malaysian government is going to arrest him by extraditing him? They'll jujst probably pounce on him once he arrives on Malaysian grounds.

Books Review

I just finished reading Tuesdays with Morrie and "for one more day", both by mitch albom.

As with "Tuesdays with Morrie":
Must read book before you die! A touching true story that touched me deeply, inspired me and motivated me. I learnt quite a few things about death and now am enlightened that death should not be feared but embraced with grace. It also teaches us on true values we should adapt and not by blindly following the mostly materiallistic culture and lifestyle these days. Morrie Schwartz who died years ago has indeed served as a beacon for mankind to follow his noble footsteps- A TEACHER TO THE LAST...
I would really love to visit him if he's still alive and visit his grave in the future. I really think the MOE should make it a compulsory book for the ENglish subject.

Review on "For One More Day":
ALso quite a good book but i prefer Tuesdays with Morrie. Nevertheless it still remains one of the top books on my recommendation list. It mostly focuses on the power of mothers' love and forgiveness. I liked the plot but it did not focus on a lot of aspects on how to live as it was mainly dedicated to mothers around the world.
Synopsis: It's really about a ficitional character( i am not sure whether he was using the character to reflect on the author's own life) who tried to commit suicide but ends up spending another day with his dead mother, doing all he always wanted to do but didn't with his mother.
