Finish your sentence
You know about the time when we used to? Or when that he said this and that? Owh come on of course you know what I'm talking about right? This was like just a few days ago. You remember right? *wink
No bitch. T_T
Cause you didn't have a good opening, nor did you end it right. A string of sentences have a sequence. They start with A and end with B or C. It doesn't just go from A to C and then back to B. Its hard to understand this kind of erratic sentences... but to be honest the impaired logic is still ok for me to handle. Go anywhere you want from A to Z and back and forth in the middle. I don't really mind. Most people who know me know I don't think with a straight line. Yeah, you need to work on me to get what I'm saying. Eventually though, most of you do understand what's coming out from my mouth.
The thing that bugs me is when people start telling a half-story. Thats what really gets on my nerves. I become crazy when someone starts to tell a secret, then decides three quarters of the way that it might be a big secret so he/she shouldn't finish the story. Like seriously, if you don't want to tell me the big big secret just make up a different ending. I'd rather be lied to than you suddenly going "omg, I can't tell you anything more. I swore not to tell!".
Ok, I know some of you akan terasa, but what the hell, why not. If you're writing in your blog, please finish the story so that people can understand what the *F-bomb* is going on. I know that some of you literally don't have balls, but metaphorically when you're writing in your blog just grow some and blurt out what you want to say, cause if you don't you're just going to make your audience curious or confused and you gain nothing. *nothing, nothing, nothingggg if I don't have youuu* (see how I end this paragraph with Whitney Houston? That's how confusing some of your blogs are to me)
For instance, if you're writing about being sad, please elaborate on why you are being sad. Maybe your pet cat died, or you fell and injured your leg, or you feel unappreciated. Awwww. Either way, tell others that your cat died, or that you fell and broke your leg, or that you think nobody cares about you. At least say something so people can just understand. Trust me, you trying to sound all mysterious and shady, really doesn't gain you points. Nobody cares.
What? No freakin' way. You're writing the mysterious sentence so that people who care will actually personally message you and ask how you are? Wow.... that's low. That sure is low. Well, what ever works out for you.
Hihihiihi

Politics babbling
Saje nak api-apikan orang yang tak sehaluan dalam political ideology... to my friends this is not a personal attack... I'm obviously directing this to someone else and not you ;)
But where the f*ck is Anwar Ibrahim and PKR and taking over the country and supposedly creating a racist-free Malaysia and your so called 'true democracy' and your babblings about turunkan harga minyak and your unfounded speculation that Najib was involved in Altantuya's murder and your ahli parliment changing sides to PKR and the bar council that you've influenced to raise sensitive issues and your banning of ISA and your RPK the true racist making up stories from his left ball and your idea of lifting the Malaysian flag upside down and your ceramahs cakap berapi api but the next day bukannye buat ape pun and your DAP plus PAS mediocre to destruction-in-the-making teamwork and your Theresa Ong expecting a served steak while in arrest and add some wine with it and your Malaysia Kini employee admitting to creating false reports and your support for Hindraf talking about euthanasia of 100 Indian-Malaysians per day whereas they walk in Mid Valley seronok je semacam tak takut nyawa terancam pun and so forth and so forth and so forth.
Talk is cheap ain't it.
Again this is not a personal attack, but one of my friends compared Anwar Ibrahim to Barack Obama. I'll state my case here. Barack Obama has a JD from Harvard University and at the same time he was the Head of the Harvard Law Review. The first black man to do so might I add. He entered Harvard without affirmative action because he didn't state his race in his application. He is poised, he is very hardworking, he is intelligent, and through out America people know him as Mr. Cool because even under the pressure of difficult questions being thrown at him during presidential debates he is able to counter them without any sign of agitation or aggression. Will he back up what he says when he becomes president? I think based on his track record there's not a shed of doubt that he can.
Now on the other hand we have Anwar Ibrahim who studied Malay studies and had to repeat his third year while at university because lo and behold he was too busy creating rallies at the streets. He can talk. Boy can he talk. When he talks crowds in the tens of thousands gather around. But we are talking about a guy who created a political party just to save his own ass. He got fired from his post, and when he wanted to seek vengeance he invited people to the streets when Malaysia was facing the Asian stock market crisis (Which Dr. M solved you bunch of ingrates).
People always talk about so-called democracy and justice, but if you ask me which one is more important, basic needs and better infrastructure compared to justice and democracy? Hand me that bowl of rice and you can have all the glory of being on the 'right' side. Of course, many of us don't feel this because lets face it, people who are reading my blog right now come from families that are at least in the middle class. If you knew, or I knew, or we just happen to be any of those kids from 'bersamamu' on TV3, the issues that are really important to us would be different. AndiIf you really think that Anwar Ibrahim is the epitome of justice in Malaysia and that he's actually trying to become PM to help the little guy, then you are gravely mistaken.
On a lighter note, I do get annoyed by publishings from Utusan. I think they are heavily biased and write crap for news. TV3 is also biased to the max. I also believe that many people in UMNO are corrupted and are out there for themselves.
If you're expecting a conclusion from this posting, don't even bother. This is bigoobs.blogspot.com remember? It's called random crap that I write. Non of the things I write here should be taken seriously. This is just a form of entertainment for those who like to read and pretty much surf peoples blogs for 'updates'.

Living within your means (part 2)....
My friend once asked me, "If you've conquered Mount Everest, would you want to conquer Mount Kinabalu?"
The answer would be no.
When it comes to guys and their possessions, there's one thing that's certain, and that is that men are always about the upgrades. We try to upgrade everything we have - our computers, our TVs, gaming platforms, cars, musical instruments, mp3 players, cameras, phones,girlfriends and much more. Somehow, it is imprinted in our brains that there's always a never ending thirst for getting something better. And thats basically the problem.... anything can be made better. What we don't have is what we should have.
Upgrades are dangerous. Before, way back then, we would fork up a little bit more money to buy delicious ayam goreng in school. Other kids would be eating their nasi lemaks the traditional way; bare boned with only sambal, ikan bilis, timun and one sixth of an egg. Some of us, *looking at myself* would add that little piece of chicken, increasing the price of that nasi lemak by 100 percent. Present day, if we include that same mentality to the way we are living right now, that means saying goodbye to home-cooking, so-long cheap make up, good riddens last seasons clothes, adios amigo to my PS2, and waves of goodbyes to what are really the necessities in life.
Well, continuing with the previous post, living within your means tells us to put a stop to these never-ending upgrades. And here's some of the things that I have done (baby step moves) to make myself adhere to this new philosophy :-
1) Do not buy branded things. Before, I would always shower using the Dove body soap. Now? I use Walgreens Sensitive Body Shower that has the exact same ingredients, except that it comes with an uglier bottle and with a two dollar cheaper price tag.
2) Tightening up on food. I'll buy a sandwitch from Subway (five-dollar-foot-long), cut it into half and eat only a half for a meal.
3) Put as many clothes into the washing machine as possible. A girl I knew back in my internship days told me to never stuff the washing machine with too many clothes as it might damage the machine. Well missy, I'm sorry. I'm in this for myself. If that washing machine breaks down then the apartment managers are just going to have to fix it so I can place more clothes in them next time and repeat the damaging cycle.
4) Contest parking tickets. I got a parking ticket recently. Instead of just paying it straight, I managed to write a formal letter to the department of revenue and state reasons on why I (maybe I'm the only one) believe that I shouldn't have to pay that ticket. It might be a total hopeless cause but it is definitely worth a try.
5) Preserving what I have. Every time after I shower I would make sure that the shower curtains are straightened up before I leave the bathroom. If I don't do this mildew might plague my beautiful yet free shower curtains. And if the shower curtains become ugly I'll have to end up buying new shower curtains.
Ok I'm starting to write about crap. Haha what did you guys expect? This blogs url is bigoobs.blogspot.com.

Live within your means...
I'm very skeptical when it comes to motivational books. Usually cause most of them don't make sense and I believe they're only there to scam people. For instance, my dad purchased this one book called "The Secret", which after I read a couple of pages where it goes on and on and on about how people who found "the secret" have propelled themselves to super stardom, I found out that there actually was no "secret". It took about two entire chapters before they actually mention what that secret is. And finally, after reading other people's success stories thinking to myself that that could be me, the secret was revealed, and that secret was the ability to "attract" people.
I know. Wtf....
Being the kind of person who only reads books mostly in flights or when I'm not playing video games or studying for an exam, I deserve some applauses since I did read another motivational book, and that motivational book was "Millionaires are from another planet" by Azizi Ali.
Azizi Ali writes in his book "Millionaires are from a Different Planet" that in order for someone to become rich, he needs to live within his means.
So Ok, so according to Azizi I have to live within my means to become rich, got it. But what does living within my means mean? It means that I shouldn't break the bank, that if I earned 3000 ringgit a month, I shouldn't spend 3100 ringgit in that month. Living within your means is a tap to the shoulder to prevent you from spending so much. It heeds a warning of not trying to be greedy, that saving is the only way to become rich, and it is a constant reminder that life's journey to financial success isn't a short term easy goal accomplishment.
Living within your own means sounds simple... but as a young male adult finally earning his own cents from working a nine to five job, this task of living within your own means is by far not the easiest thing to do. And I'll tell you why.... in my next post.
Night!
