Your Asian mom

Recently, I announced my plan to get married within a year. And, the response that I get from my dad was he wanted me to follow the fast rule of his village tradition strictly- which I am not so keen of. In this modern day, he still insist the guy side to bear all the costs of marriage which is nonsense to me. He felt very insulted that at my side, I will bear all the cost, he said it was kind of "buying yourself". The elder generation should not restrict the youngsters in their decision without better reason rather than the lame excuse of tradition. Some more, I was not brought up at the village that he was born to. I could not see any rational that the villagers have to bear witness on my partner handling over the money. Most unacceptable was my parent intended to arrange on my wedding plan- guests list, meal set, and etc. Based on previous cousin's wedding reception, it was totally a pain on the ass as some other uncles were criticizing the event management, af

Ironically, the thin woman or man tend to watch out for their body composition rather than those who have problem with weight. I fall under the category where others might think that I am a  psychotic girl with anorexic thought.  No! No! No!, thin girl needs exercise to burn unnecessary fat, boost up the immune system, associate with preventing cancer and increase appetite.   I know about it, but my priority is to build on my mental strength. I seldom had any storm in my life, until now. Emotionally I am quite vulnerable.  Therefore, when I go for endurance workout like 5km run or an hour work out, I will try to sustain the hardship and bear until the end of it. One does not have to get into it to know how difficult it is to breath, the brain cannot think properly and how heavy the whole body will became when one do it without any pause.  I believe by torturing myself that way, I will be able to endure others which so far was not as unbearable as jogging.  The key is, ex

   Cowboys and Aliens, the ironic of the two items enticed the curiosity of movie-lovers. However, its more to marketing tactic than having quality of the product.    Watching it as a layman gave me a lot of turn off, as I have expected something extraordinary from the movie- a good storyline, unexpected outcome and etc-.    But it turned out to be a lot of cowboy era town, with too many of characters introduction at a time which lead me to nowhere but with question," Err, how significant are these people in the story?". In addition, the casting method in narrating flashback was here and there, unless I watched it on my own DVD player and replay , I did not get enough time to digest some of the dialogue by watching it in cinema...It was like, I came from other place, and trying to adapt this body bla bla bla bla....I was like, Uhh?consider myself as retarded as not be able to comprehend the message...   SERIOUSLY, the appearance of alien had no meaning? I just knew that th

RM29.90 (I bought it for RM23.00) I have came across her books many times at many bookshops. I knew it was going to be fun-reading material Out of the blue, I finally bought it. (That time, I just received my offer letter stating that I am entitled for RM120 book allowance monthly) The writing concept is more to blogging style with no formality and restricted to the writer's own style. Her true experience as a cabin crew is an advantage in composing them. As a frequent traveler, I used to think that they were so annoying, walking past of me all the time, they gave me feeling that they were like flies. Through her kaleidoscope, I know their importance in attending troublesome passengers- especially children. (despite of categorizing them as needed-to-be-protect minor, they could be very devilish if given too much of protection). And I was like, " Wow, the stewardesses are prone for sexual harassment and  people really dare to have sex in the aircraft too" S

It was a blessed day that I was able to wake up late on my off day. As usual, I will switch on TV and watch channel 711. It was already 11am and the star world channel was showcasing "accidentally on purpose" The main actress, Billy was pregnant our of wedlock with Jack as per seen at the image above.  In this time series, her sister- Abby who has married for 5 years wanted to conceive with her commitment phobia husband, Alex. Alex has rejected the request again and again for lame excuses. Thus, Abby was pissed and hung out with Jack's bestfriend, Davis at a bar. They proceeded to Davis's house and Abby asked him whether he would willing to impregnated her.  I was thinking about ethical issue on that. A female ready to have a baby, with stability of financial and life, but dejected by husband's refusal in having kids. It is like what the heck with these bunches of men? "why am I marrying a guy with no intention to expand the family, eventhough I am alr

"UPSR 38 hari lagi" whiteboard found at a primary school compound in Sabah LABIS: Are teachers incompetent, or school books unsuitable? The Education Ministry will look at these factors to determine why students continue to have a poor grasp of the English language. Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin, who is also education minister, said the ministry would review the curriculum with regard to the teaching of English as well as identify the reasons behind students’ poor command of the language. Muhyiddin said even after learning the language for 13 years at primary, secondary and matriculation levels, some students still could not master English. “I have no answers for this problem. I will ask the (Education) director-general to review the English curriculum to find out the reasons behind the problem. I am not pinpointing educators here, it was just devastating to see the continuous method to be taught to schoolchildren. There is a saying in chines

I was quite reluctant to watch this movie initially by just thinking how ugly and hairy they are. I had change of thought as soon as the movie kick started. Caeser, the chimpanzee is quite adorable when he was an infant and it was so sweet its relationship with his master (or dad). besides, the issues here are about pharmaceutical trial on human testing which alter the life of animal, the rights of animal to live normally like what they are supposed to be, human attitude on wild animal, and also the denial of human being in combating incurable disease like Alzheimer's. We have to admit that we are selfish creature in the world, we do everything for the benefits of our kind, thus we would like to hurt others, indirectly. The aggressive behavior shown by the primates in prison are actually reflected us. Human have feelings, when we get hurt, our intelligent will lead us a way whether in a good way or destructive. The writer for the story must have put creative thought in

One cannot run from getting scolded from superior for mistake done, whether it is purposely or otherwise. In positive way, we could learn and improve ourselves. In other way round, the negative feeling-scared, feel humiliated are there. But, somehow I wish that they would not be fierce and demoting the junior as well. Again, I am the one who should improve myself to another yard so that less chances for others to pinpoint and abuse me emotionally.

On August 9, the world will celebrate World Indigenous people.A programme which is supported by the United Nation. Indigenous-  originating in and characteristic of a particular region or country; native (often followed by to ): According to the JAOS (Indigenous peoples network Malaysia) commitee members, in Sabah, there are around 80 ethnics which considered as indigenous, which include Kadazan, Dusun, Murut, Rungus, Bajau, Kadayan, Suluk (and not to forget the mixed marriage of Sino-natives)....but not malay, chinese, Indian and BUGIS.  Not to be racist here, but that is the fact.  Well, it is good to be recognized as the original people of this land, however, the invaders have sort of jeopardising their human rights particularly on land issue.  In fact, the land that they have inhabited for so long are their valuable sources for life continuity. Having exploited for many years, they are now know their rights and ready to fight together with other NGOs, inc

SABAH recorded an inflation rate of 2.4 per cent as of January this year, said Chief Minister cum Finance Minister Datuk Seri Musa Aman. (theborneopost online). With the unstoppable of inflation in Malaysia, particularly in Sabah, one should start thinking how to handle own financial because all prices have gone up. The simple principle of the economy thing is about the demand versus with supply.  Sources became limited but there are still people wanting it, thus it became expensive. This is the least way, but effective to cope with the inflation: a) stop or reduce the frequency of eating out as the food price in Sabah is undeniably expensive. Get ready to fork out RM10 for a meal. When compare dining at home, one could save around RM5 per meal. b)Food matter: In case one could not avoid dining out, perhaps avoiding meat-based as those will cost higher than vegetables. Plus, vegetables are healthy and non fattening diet. c)Food matter: Why order sweetened drink when plain w
