# SO, instead of the much anticipated GOLD, Lee Chong Wei had to settle for silver but its still a first for Malaysia, in the individual category that is. FYI, the first silver medal was won by the pair of Cheah Soon Kit - Yap Kim Hock back in 1996 but I'm sure you knew that already.

I felt that while Lin Dan was on top form during that match, the same could not be said for Lee, perhaps the pressure of shouldering Malaysia's only hope for the gold medal and also the deafening cheers from the crowd (not for him) was really getting into him, hence losing succumbing to his opponent's game rhythm. I know I would.


OF COURSE there's disappointment but I believe that what I felt is only a tiny fraction of what Lee must be shrouded in, confirm, I've been through this working extremely hard and end up losing senario before. Anyway, he has already made us proud by reaching the finals which was not an easy feat at all, facing world class players such as Lee Hyun Il, a dangerman known to create upsets, Sony Dwi Kuncoro and Ronald Susilo along the way.

For that, he should be sung praises instead of the abundant negative comments and discouraging remarks that I've come across so far. Then again, I guess that's what most Malaysians do best, totally tumpang glory if win, tumpang bashing kaw-kaw when lose. Shame on you guys lah.



# Have you heard, the Cabinet has agreed on a new administrative charge rate for PTPTN loans, applicable to new and existing applications as well as those currently paying off their loans, that's ME! Instead of the previous 3% for degree courses and 5% for master courses, a flat rate of 1% across all courses, which is calculated on a reducing rate basis, has been approved.

I will finally be able to see the actual amount being paid off rather than just servicing the incredible amount of interest, a good news indeed, very much welcomed! Have you started paying your's yet? More information here.



# In Malaysia, nothing can be worst than our political system, not even our public transportation or our public washrooms. Instead of stability, we have everything else including chaos, finger pointing, the blame game, unusual activity, interest as well as behaviours, and so much more.


We have politicians giving their opinions about an issue when not required and not uttering even a single word when required, from both the government as well as the opposition. Its a total circus, if I may say so and some are still left wondering the cause behind Malaysia's massive brain-drain. It makes me wonder what is to become of us, the poor rakyat?

Ah, enough about them talk so much later kena visited by ACA or ISA or whatever A then masuk lokap cannot bail.



# Which kind of bring us into the next issue and yeap, you've guessed it right (if you did), the suggestion to open up 10% of UiTM's intake to other races/international students. Perhaps one would need to be a bumi and have the bumi mentality in order to understand the severity of such proposal, hence the uproar from a PPIM project director, a vice-chancellor as well as thousands of students' of UiTM who should actually be studying instead of holding peaceful demonstrations.

For me, I totally tak faham at all lah.

It's not like they're being suggested to donate 10% of their campus land for pig cultivation and farming kan? Its not like the other 10% are going to be studying for free or steal all your scholarships/sponsorships away kan? Its not like the non-bumis would definitely enroll in UiTM even if given the chance, please lah, kan?


And we're supposingly looking at the future generation of leaders, and sporting such behaviour, so much for racial integration, strength in unity, multi-racial community and all those crap kan?

Some people should just go eat shit and die, too harsh ah, I don't think so since I'm not referring to anyone in particular only those who did what they did will terasa loh, I would say.



# Moving on to happier things again, refer to the image below. I don't know bout you but everytime I take a look at it, I'm all smiles. Don't mind the reflections though, this the main wedding photo frame btw, the one that'll be typically hung above the bed that one and I will NOT layan any questions on why my lips are so red and shiny.




# I am unable to find the transfer cable for my previous camera thus cannot load games into my NDS cause the MicroSD USB adapter sudah rosak and I currently do not own any memory card readers. The built-in reader on the notebook doesn't work, can detect but cannot display and plugging it on the printer prevents the files to be modified, some write protection issue WTF lah so sad can? :( :( :( :( :(



# There you go, there's enough information in this post to last you for a week, lols. I sacrificed my sleep in order to come up with this post, make sure that at this very moment you're reading this sentence, you have previously read all the others above else please scroll to the top and start all over again. Don't say I didn't warn you.

the UiTM issue is just a issue blown out of proportion for the benefit of PKR. If you notice carefully. There arent enough universities in malaysia meh? why need go kacau them? they got benefits leave them alone lor, just open a chinese university lor. PKR keep using it as a reason to shoot BN. haiz, everything also politics, this PKR is hopeless

As for the pic, whats with the red and shiny lips ar? hahaha

@jaywalker - Because I use Protex soap to wash face everyday wtf.

@munak - In a way perhaps you're right but what I fail to comprehend is the reaction as well as comments coming from the affected parties, sort of like its owed to them. As for the political party gaining benefits from such move, I would say that my impression (negative that is) for both parties did not budge even a bit.
