Bersih 3.0 / Clean 3.0

It sounds like software to me. You can call me dumb when it comes to politic. Shamelessly, I admitted to everybody that I don't read newspaper and watch TV news. This is because I'm a Law of Attraction (LOA) practitioner, because "Be thankful for what you have, you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never ever have enough" is what I believed in. In general, what's inside newspaper and TV news tells a lot of negative things compared to positive one. And some people told me newspapers & TV is belong to 'mainstream' party, so whatever I read & watched might be biased. So I skipped it.

I never get a true definition of righteous politic. What is righteousness in politics? I never get a good explanation and insight of every politic party in Malaysia - be it PAS, DAP, PKR, BN without hearing hatred in between enlightenment. Then, I came into my own conclusion that, nothing is enough enough when it comes to POWER and MONEY. It's a man made thing. Politics to me is created from promises.. it's a man made thing. I promise you this, you will get what I promised if you do this. Too bad that,  I don't believe in man made thing. Too bad, I get things done and things that I wanted on my own without have to wait or hear promises. Just, a plain work hard and persistence. Time is gold.

What happened today on KL streets seriously messing with my yin and yang. I tried not to read it, but it has filled up my Facebook general wall, pushes all the nice, motivational quotes shared by positive peoples and cute dogs and cats photos :(

So I started to google what is this yellow, Bersih rally 3.0 is all about?

"The Coalition for Clean and Fair Elections (Malay: Gabungan Pilihanraya Bersih dan Adil) or Bersih (meaning clean in Malay) is a coalition of non-governmental organisations (NGOs) which seeks to reform the current electoral system in Malaysia to ensure free, clean and fair elections"

and they want;

1) The Election Commission must resign, as it has failed in its responsibility and has lost the confidence of the public.

2) The electoral process must be cleaned before the 13th General Elections.

3) Invite international observers to observe the 13th General Elections.

but, what all above demands has to do with this?

"yes, we and Indonesian are twin that were separated at birth"

They gave this to the International Observers to observe this even before the 13th General Election.

Not to mention pictures of yellow shirt people bashing cops, cops bashing yellow shirt people.. and thousands ugly pictures been circulating on the internet giving different insight and story behind the pictures which, not just confusing, but, Malaysian really needs help from outside in getting basic education of how to live, act and become a normal human 101. 

While other countries working towards better civilization, we are going backwards, towards Planet of The Apes, downgrading our country to 4th world country, like we never taste and achieve  independency. We were ruled and puppetted by Nippon, Portugese, British before August 1957 and now we are inviting them again to observe us like we are incapable to set things straight in our own territory?

Okay, correct me if I'm wrong. I am dumb when it comes to 'perjuangan politik'. But please enlighten me with simple basic definition as if I'm 5 years old child. As 5 years old child, I ask you what is Bersih. And you will tell me the basic meaning of Bersih is "Clean". One word, Clean. When it comes to the word clean, I understand that, your intention, action and execution will portray the cleanliness. Just like PeTA. No fur.

So they go naked.

But Malaysian Bersih 3.0 left its shit on the streets and carry home their shitty attitude;

So, please tell me, as if I am 5 years old child, this is the kind of movement and action I should believe in? At definition stage, you already failed to give me, a 5 years old child to understand it literally, so how are you going to explain it to me further on motto, goal and oath? Disgusting!

And we are officially make our country as an education hub. No way! I won't be sending my kids to study in Malaysia and waste my money just to get my kids to mingle with this type of community, becoming barbarian and bring home Malaysian attitude to my home country.

and since this blog has readers from all over the world (because it's in English, ahem) I would like to straight the things out. Whatever you've seen on your tabloid/internet/newspaper about what happened during Bersih 3.0 or yellow shirt rally is not permanent. Malaysia is not having riot everyday. That only happen few hours in a year. It's nothing like Bangkok red's shirt or British riot. We are still live in peaceful, most of us still driving expensive imported cars and carrying expensive imported handbags, school kids carrying iPhone and latest tablet.. No matter how corrupted our government is, they still do their best to make sure no  massacre happen on the streets. It's just, there are some group of people trying very hard to turn this country into Planet of the Apes just to validate their accusation that whoever ruling this country is a stupid shit bastard. These group willing to sell their country's peaceful state just to prove that they are right.

Like a software, Bersih 3.0 has no exception to virus and system failure. Enough said.

Flame me if you care.
p/s: Flame me if you care, but I will stick to my liberality. Im not sided anyone. Because Im rooting for World Wildlife Fund.

Whatever we think about and thank about, we bring about.~ LOA

Bandung 2012: You're always a celebrity. Pt 1

For you attention whore, who likes to pose in front of the camera and wish that people will follow and beg for your response in every step you make, as soon as you set one of your foot on the ground - Bandung is for you.


I know I was talking about my trip  to Bandung since February. And I have gazillions story on my Japan trip in March yet to post. But, by looking at my nature as a weekend blogger and I write according to my mood, it's going to take years to finish, I guess.


I was on a company trip to Bandung on February and it was a fun trip. It was nothing like ordinary company trip, if fact, it felt like I was on a Family trip, except, I don't have to pay for the food, pay for every unnecessary  cheap things that your family might pick along the way and think about how to survive till the end of the month after a huge spending during the trip.


This is the very 1st snap in Bandung, and it was taken when I was on my way to the coach.

It wasn't perfect for paparazzi kind of shot. So, for those who is planning to go to Bandung, kindly be prepared with aviator sun glass, Blackberry phone in your hands and pretend you are busy tweeting to your fans telling them you're at Bandung Airport (pfffttt..) and be all diva as if you are Kim Kardashian followed by Paparazzi.


Like this.

Ok, cut the non sense short. Anyway, it was a fun trip :)

It was a 3 day 2 nights fun trip of sightseeing, SHOPPING, eating, SHOPPING, camwhoring, SHOPPING and SHOPPING. Bandung is like a place for you to practice to be Datin Rosmah to London and Italy. Bandung is for Malaysian to shop like they just came out from the cave after been living inside for 35 years, and suddenly - shop.


Here's the proof;

*I had to mosaic that guy face because I loath him. I never liked him for every reason, business or personal. He knew it and I don't think being straight forward and upfront about how you feel is a crime.


Those are shopping bags for 1 day shopping. We were there for 3 days. So just multiply those bags into 3. Airasia making money on extra baggage. And now Airasia is so mischievous, they knew Malaysian pretend to be poor, complaining about increasing petrol price, toll and tax. And yet busy shopping all year round in Bandung, Ho Chi Minh and Bangkok. So they increased the flight ticket to Bandung now, and maybe to the rest of their destination soon. If you are able to get KUL-BDO-KUL below RM400, over the weekends, now, you must be dreaming, or lying. Or maybe you are second cousin to Ananda Krishnan. Well, most of Malaysian are lying anyway. They have the money. It just they wanted to spend it on shopping, gadget like iPad and fancy imported cars. Not on tax, toll & petrol. So maybe if PKR win on upcoming election, maybe Malaysian will be able to shop in Paris and Italy just like they did in Bandung, Ho Chi Minh and Bangkok since PKR PROMISED to lift off the toll, tax and Im not surprise if they PROMISED a rice sack will be given to 28 million Malaysian on weekly basis. I don't really follow any political shit around this country, but if I heard RUMORS of any of party able to make bank loan INTEREST FREE, they will get my vote, EVERYDAY.


Im not gonna write my Bandung trip post accordingly to Day 1, 2 and 3. I just sum it up so that you know what is 3 days 2 nights trip to Bandung in general. And I don't think you wanted to know in detail. You just wanna see the pictures.


We stayed at this nice hotel called Sukajadi. Not Sukahati. But it will make you feel Sukahati on its own way, when the time is right. It is located at Sukajadi road, some kind of central area where shopping mall Paris Van Java Mall and a walking distance to few Factory outlet boutique but I never had a chance to visit because of exhaustion. 

Here's Sukajadi at a glance;

Twin sharing room with flat screen TV.

Swimming pool area.

Hall way on every floor. It's different on every floor.

Hall way that separated hotel lobby and guest room.

Despite of nice room and service, I have to give my honest opinion about the breakfast. It's suck. I hope it was me, not the hotel's fault. Maybe I never liked Indonesian style food since Bali. Or, maybe the food here is truly sucks. Here, omelette is free but half boiled egg is chargeable. I guess to boil plain water is more expensive than frying an egg using coconut oil with condiments, here in Bandung.

Our cute small 20 seaters coach in Bandung.

Traffic in Bandung

You see, for the first timer like me, I keep on questioning myself, what is about Bandung anyway? Why people keep on talking about it until Airasia increased the ticket price from RM200 to RM800. By looking at the streets and surroundings, I rather choose visiting old, ancient temple in Jogjakarta or Cambodia. 

Malaysia should consider to go back to old style of public transportation and so government can use their so called petrol subsidy to do something else like help saving stray cats and dogs. Because no matter how they claimed about helping with the subsidy, it's never enough to us Malaysian.

Bandung streets food. It looks like a BBQ sticky rice cube or something. Eat with dry grated coconut. I don't dare to try because it is so open to the streets.

Visit Tangkuban Perahu, a dormant volcano. I tried to find any shape looks like upturned boat as why this volcano got its name from. But it was too foggy or maybe I didn't care to find the spot which is high enough to see the view of this volcano as a whole. I can't when 4-5 streets salesmen been following me around with their knickknacks to sell. Toys, fridge magnets, handmade hats, beads.. you name it!

It was cold and foggy up here, that was not a smoke from the volcano. But it's mist from cold climate at Tangkuban Perahu. Unlike Genting Highland ya.. those mist are real.


I tried to find every angle to take a good view of this volcano.. but it turned out looks like a dump site, unless someone pose in front of it. well, if i didn't tell you that is Tangkuban Perahu, you guys would think it is a dump site anyways.

See? 4 of them are the salesmen just waiting for me to finish my pose and once you finished with your pose, they were like "please buy this.. I give you at a very cheap price.. bla bla bla"

Ghetto streets salesmen which I believe their will and hope is stronger than Insurance salesmen in Kuala Lumpur. They will make sure you leave with something, from their stalls. No empty handed. Never say never kata Justin Bieber.


They really follow you around. There were like - Never give up, never surrender (wait.. where I heard that from.. ) And one of the salesmen even offered to be my photographer. So I gave him my camera and he was so happy to take my pictures around! Well, after 1 hour, and I was about to leave the place he was like "please miss.. I already wait for you to buy my stuff patiently..  at least buy 1.." Hhhhmm well, yea, finally he made me buy his stuff. Urgghh. He was the one who never gave up.. and I was the one who surrendered. 

and you will find Naruto and Dragon Ball gang at the stalls along the streets.

It's a cold place, so they have this fresh from the wok snacks. Mainly made from tapioca, tofu and God knows what it is..


Oh, I got this video taken at Tangkuban Perahu. Lucky the guy didn't make me buy that thing!!!






We had our 1st lunch at this restaurant called Saung Balibu.

I feel for the fish. I mean, it was presented in a very mean way! You're dead, fried and stabbed by the fork after you're dead and fried!!

Im not a fan of Indonesian food. I just can't take it :(I remember I was busy eating that poor fish to its bone.. and that's it :( But I think it just me, because the rest of the group shoved it down into their throat and left their plate shiny clean. So yea. it was just me.

It's a nice and quiet restaurant. It offers a decent vast view of local residence with rolling mountains as its background.

and for avocado lovers, you SHOULDNT miss avocado juice, made 100% out of avocado. When I said 100%, no water added! just ice cubes and chocolate syrups. Thick & creamy. I don't know how many avocado they take to make this, but it is cheap! The price is not even cost 1 avocado that sells in Malaysia. I was like drinking and drinking avocado juice in Bandung many many times so that it can helps me to look young in an instant. Yeah right.

Infamous Teh Botol in Bandung. No preservative and color added. That's what they claimed. But who cares tea in the bottle when you got expensive errr..cheap avocado juice in Bandung?

Happy group photo after happy eating.


uh, Im so hungry right now and I feel bad for saying that the food wasn't good enough. The truth is, if those foods appear in front of me right now, I would eat it.. eat it all..


Ok, now I need to check my freezer see what I can eat right now.


continue this in part 2! I guess.


So, tootle - oo

See no evil. Hear no evil. Speak no evil.

People are often unreasonable, illogical and self-centered

FORGIVE THEM ANYWAY

If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish motives

BE KIND ANYWAY

if you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies

SUCCEED ANYWAY

If you are honesty & sincere, people may deceive you

BE HONEST & SINCERE ANYWAY

What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight

BUILD ANYWAY

If you find serenity and happiness, they may jealous

BE HAPPY ANYWAY

The good you do today, people will often forgot tomorrow

DO GOOD ANYWAY

Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough

GIVE THEM YOUR BEST ANYWAY

In the final analysis, it is between you and GOD

IT NEVER WAS BETWEEN YOU AND THEM ANYWAY.

~Mother Teresa

...and how messed up people are nowadays, keep spreading the idea of "FEAR OF GOD" instead of LOVING GOD... How fucked up people are nowadays, to  choose FEAR.. over LOVE.

So, you think you can dance?

I can. A little. A chicken dance.

I know I have a lot of travel post to finish but, I don't feel like to do it right now. Some people think I able to post in this "none on the list of technorati blog of the year" because I have pictures to show off and write a little. But trust me, I can write without a picture. I can write just like I talk. Non stop, for hours and hours. You'll be sorry if I decided to write without any picture in between and you'll never come back to check Heartboxx again. never. 


It was public holiday, yesterday. so I decided to check out a new movie with my girlfriend. My movie genre priority goes like this;


1) Sci - Fi Action - the more robotic, the more I like it. Eg; Transformers/ IronMan/ StarWars/ The Matrix - the blue pill/red pill.


2) Romantic Comedy - I like it ridiculously funny romantic. Eg; There's Something about Mary/Just Friends/ Zoolander (wait, is Zoolander can be categorized under 'romantic'? or maybe I have a thing towards Ben Stiller)


3) Action, adventures , Superhero! - the cooler the superhero power, the more I fell in love with one. Eg; X-Men (Wolverine - yea mann) / Blade / Batman


4) Fantasy, with a twist of cute blown up gown with big ass bow attached to it, witch, ogre and diamente tiaras. Eg: Alice in Wonderland (original and the remakes) / Narnia/ Pan's Labyrinth~ "in darkness, there can be light, in misery, there can be beauty, in death, there can be life"


5) Biography/ Drama - which is based on real person, a true story. Eg: Catch me if you can / A Beautiful Mind/ Ray


...and that's it. Oh, Animation. That would be Puss in Boots - ONLY.


You can check the trailers of the above mentioned movies and you will know WHY I love 'em.


But yesterday, I picked a genre which I hardly watch, maybe I give it a chance like, for once a year -  A musical drama. It's called "Street Dance 2". Im not so good in doing movie reviews, I never did any.


I still remember the 1st ever musical drama I watched in year 2001 - "Save the Last Dance".





It was all touchy romantic musical, dance movie that made me believe that love know no colors, background or belief. It's borderless! The song "Crazy" by Kci & Jojo was the most perfect soundtrack for this story line. I still become all emo until now, every time the song came across on the radio.


Then came "Honey" in year 2003.




That Jessica Alba body gave me the new definition of 'perfect' body. Because of her, I try my best to keep my waistline below 25". And again - love is beautiful when it involves colors :)


and then "Step Up" in year 2006.




So, white boy can dance! It was like an extended version of "Save the Last Dance" - a dance fusion of ballet and hip hop


Not so long after that come another movie in year 2007 - which listing a very long list of dance style I never seen in this country - Breaking, Bouncing, poppin' krumping, clowning, jerking, locking, snapping.. and it takes a genius to dance after that. Dance is no longer a simple tapping of your foot and clap your hands in the air
 :(




Stomp the Yard  - is the movie that introduce me to Chris Brown :D
So I guess this movie made the other movie keep on making street dancing battle, recruiting the best dancer all over the world in order to beat the 1st Stomp The Yard.


So, where the hell Street Dance came on? Why I suddenly watch the prequel - Street Dance 2?




So, it's about white boy can dance again!


What I hate about this one is that, the story line is like too thin, as if, no story line at all. AND I WATCHED IT IN 3D! Waste my money! It just wanted to show off how these kids can dance. And they try to go extreme with mixing Salsa with street hip hop? Trust me, just leave the salsa alone. It's already good. In fact, I love the part of Salsa dance battle in the boxing rim. That's all. That kind of Salsa can beat all, any street dance exist today.


And who's Eddie? Why this pale, skinny young boy suddenly can be the manager and fly from London to Ibiza, Prague, Peru and all, finding the best dancer. Unless he is Donald Trump's son. And Ash, the main character? Also be able to fly across Europe continent, working as a Pop Corn boy? WTF? Don't tell me domestic flight in Europe is cheaper that AirAsia, from KL to KK! I quit my job now and selling pop corn in Europe then!


And, pop corn boy uniform in London can be found easily in Paris for all 9 of them, from the tallest guy to the smallest boy? at the stadium, within 5 minutes? WHY AM I WATCHING THIS MOVIE ANYWAY?


I was so frustrated, I came home and log onto youtube to find something that can make me feel good about that stupid movie which costs me RM18.




Ah, now I feel much better.


Maybe I shouldn't try to watch any of musical dance movie at this age anymore :( . Maybe I should just stick to the movie list, listed in this guide book. 

and try to find pirate copy or download it somewhere online :(

This is A Public Community Service Message -

Not. Just a common sense. 


Was at Ikea The Curve and had my weekend dinner - Swedish meatballs and broccoli (the fav one). I don't know what's inside that meatballs, or is it its gravy that made me willing to drive this far and gone through hell traffic jam. But it was worth it.


As usual, it is full, cramped with people like me who just refused to cook. Yes, I admit I don't do cook and I never will. Hey, Im not alone. Go check any restaurant and pay good attention around you. Im not the only lady who think cooking is a waste of time. So, STFU.


But this is not what I wanted to talk about.


I was having trouble to get a seat, and Im sure this is happening to most of you too. Yes, it seems like most of the table and seat occupied by human, but there is another problem that creating this 'hard to get a seat' in Ikea restaurant - rubbish and leftovers by another ignorant on the table.


Why oh why, we Malaysian still can't self educate about cleaning after ourselves? I want to ask you, what is that white and gray lined tray is for? Yes, it is to put your plates and your orders from food counter to the cashier and to your table. But does it ever cross your mind that, it also functioned as a tool to carry your leftovers to the tray rack lined up at every corner of that restaurant?


I saw people sitting on my left and right. On my left hand side is a group of four. Maybe they are on double date or something. And on my right hand side, is a couple, where, they were busy crossing arms feeding each other like a mommy to a 3 years old baby. Ok. That's sweet. I don't see any tray on their table. Oh, apparently they are trying to be neat like, putting the tray away and it just the table and the plate, just like at home. BUT DO YOU LEAVE THOSE PLATE JUST LIKE THAT AT YOUR OWN KITCHEN AFTER U FINISHED? No? 


I know, our mother never taught us eating our dinner or lunch with plate still on the tray. Ye lah, makan dalam talam. Tak ke buruk rupanya? But at home, you have your poor mother to pick your plate after you finished and clean it for you. Yes, it's all about culture and upbringing. Manis, makan tertib, talam di simpan. But is it still polite and sweet of you to leave your rubbish behind for other people who is having trouble with their tray full of food, sitting , walking around, "tawaf'-ing the restaurant until he/she spotted empty chair but with shitload of your leftovers on that table? Ibarat berak dekat public toilet, tapi malas nak flush. Kau tau tak? Do you like to see fresh shit inside the toilet bowl at the moment you want to use it? After some queue and stomach cramp?

This is happening everywhere. McDonalds, KFC, Pizza Hut to name a few. You won't see this if you go to other country. They already know what to do after they finish eating in fast food restaurant - 10 years ago. We are not talking about mamak restaurant ok? or Kak Jijah Tomyam. But believe me, people carry their own tray with leftovers to somekind of food disposable corner - even at street restaurants in Japan.


What are we? 3rd world country? Er, yeah. Your brain is.


Other country, tak payah pegi jauh la.. tu.. Singapore. They already busy campaigning adopt a street cats and dogs instead of buying special cross breed. They even have special group meeting for this cause - Save the animal left straying on the street or Save Our Street Dog (SOSD). 

Ok lah, HANJING TU HARAM. But do we ever care towards street cats? Kau lenyek dengan kereta kau yang pasang sportrim mahal tu je kan?
But we, Malaysian, still struggling with Paper - Glass - Plastic rubbish bin (I saw people put plastic mineral water's bottle into paper bin, and paper into glass bin), clean your own shit, use and carry that God damned tray and toss your leftovers to appropriate place and WE ARE STILL STRUGGLING WITH PEOPLE SQUATTING ON TOILET SEAT in public toilet!




It's seemed like you can take the Malaysian out of Babarian but you can't take the Babarian out of the Malaysian? Haaa.. more or less like that lah.


Shameful.


I hope any so called famous bloggers who happened to come across my rubbish post, care to create some awareness among your fan base - "Clean Your Own Shit" awareness. C.Y.O.S.


Adios.
