Rants 101

I've not rant for ages! And I feel like ranting=)

So bear with me*smiles*

So today is my first time visiting the graveyard for the Qing Ming season. And my my, I must say the Chinese has such weird tradition that they practice till today. Not only I find the tradition very sexist and very degrading to the women race, but I find it a waste of resource and it pollutes the air. To think today is earth day. There they go burning paper phones, clothes, and some even burn Iphone 4 for their ancestors. It's fine if you want to pay your respect to your ancestors but those unnecessary open burnings will only kill mother nature. My bestie's sis once suggested them to burn their phone numbers so that their ancestors can call them back from their after life. Like why not right? Since they are burning cars, houses, passport, and money for them.

So there's this ceremony where the males in the family have to throw some colour papers on the grave and I also notice that no females are allowed to do so. And mom said something like this to me :

Mom: Only the males in the family are allowed to do so.

Which I replied:

Me : Why? Because they are the sperm donors and we only have ovaries?

Mom : Shhhhhh! You are not supposed to say that here!!

Owh so, as a female we are not supposed to voice out our opinions in family functions like that eh? As a token of "respect" to them. Do they even deserve out respect anyway? They didn't even acknowledge the existence and the vital role of the women folks in the family. Which brings me to the part where one of my relative who looked joyfully at brother and read his palm and then mentioned something about him having good luck in life or something. In which my mom replied:

Mom : Well my daughters are doing well too.

Old man : *Dismiss my mother* Ah! Daughters are not important. I am asking about your son! How many sons you have?

Mom : One *pointed at my brother*

Old Man : Only one!? Then you have two daughters!? What a waste!

Mom : Well it's the same for daughters.

So daughters are not important eh? I doubt your male grandchildren are doing as well as the females anyway. Look at the men in the family. How many of them grow up to be real men who doesn't drink and respect their wives? Most of them ended up two timing their wives or find an easy way out by using the money that you earn instead of working.

I asked my mom where did he come from anyway? Cause in my mind I really thought he came from his dad's anus (which resulted him to having crap as his brain, or having a skull filled with air). My mom shush me up since I am not allowed to question stuff like that. Again, she plea ignorance and submission since we as a women don't really have a say in the family. Maybe my mom don't want to cause any complication since it's not like those uncivilized traditional thinking old folks will get what I am trying to convey anyway.

But then again, there is no reason for him to degrade women just like that since the women folks are the ones who contributed so much to the family and most of the younger generations they are the ones who are the breadwinner of the family and the ones who managed to complete their education.

I hope to God that men like this will learn to treat women equally before they are on their death bed. Which reminds me of the video that I watched last night. So this leader from a political party were going on and on about women who don't know how to look after themselves well (for instance, covering themselves properly from head to toe), deserved to be rape since they are the ones who causes men to get out of control (as in not being able to keep their dicks to themselves). In other words, that conniving old man, were defending the rapist out there by blaming it on the victim for looking too good to the men's eyes. I can't finish watching the video anyway since everything that came out from his shit gap were pure nonsense and he's a disgrace to mankind. Actually strike that out, he's a disgrace to all men out there. Just because men cannot control their desires that doesn't give them the rights to force themselves into any women who appeared to be attractive to their eyes. Even dogs know how to pick their mates=.=

What I can't stand most is when these, wait. I am thinking of a word to address such..urhmm..creatures? Anyway, such species on earth used God's name in vain to defend their lust and to get women to submit to the stuff that they want women to do for them making God look bad.*shakes head*

Oh well, we shall see what other stuff that these uncivilized creatures can come out with. And regardless of how old they are, I have no respect for men who can't treat women right. Even my dad with a traditional mind set treats my mom like a queen. He'll be damned if he doesn't treat the women right. I know of real men who know how to treat women equally. Although there are many exceptional cases, but really, having something sticking out from below doesn't make males more powerful due to their "weapon" or useful if they don't know how to put their brains in use and look at things at a various perspective.

Perfect Sunday

The moon is shooo incredibly pretty today!!!

Went over to the British Council fair with Jyun today, and there's this obnoxious woman at the fair (local) who not only talk to us rudely when we wanted to enquire about some course that we are interested in pursuing in our Postgraduate study later, but she doesn't bloody know what is Developmental Psychology. For someone who is a representative from a supposedly prestigious university from the UK, she doesn't even know the different fields that we as a Psychology student can major in after our Undergraduate degree study. She even asked me to explain to her what is Developmental Psychology and that surprised me a whole lot more since a non-psychology student know very well about that field of study. And so I havta explain the field of study to her in my very own words although I wanted to leave that booth ASAP once she asked me what is the field about. Moron.

She was also very rude to us when we wanted to know more about the course too. Since we are both students and we weren't with our parents (most students who went to the fair were there with their parents) so she thinks we don't know better or something so she spoke to us rudely with a hint of contempt in her tone. Anyhoo, we ditched the brochure she gave us about the university aside after that since the university doesn't offer any course of our interest.

Anyway, bestie wrote an article about people who are born without emotions and psychopaths. That got me thinking. If only I am back to uni now, I can ask my lecturers about it. I'll be back for my second year soon anyway=)

So yeah, there are a lot to thing about..

This week is all about chilling and having fun. I've been hanging out at the malls a lot lately and I am sick of the malls already. Boo! It's because of my lil sis the other day, I was at the same mall throughout the day. At least Jyun was with me to keep me company and I got my first dark mocha from him!!!!=)

He seemed to enjoy the drink as much as I do=) Heh! Since it tastes like chocolate (Jyun's fav).

Although being in this field means there are a lot of different route to take. And sometimes I can be in the wrong route since the field is sooooooooo broad. There are a few things that interest me. And that makes it hard for me to decide which field to major in later. Then again, I have no regrets being in this route. I can't see myself doing a different course right now. Although before this, being a lawyer seemed like a pretty ideal job. Someone told me today that it's gonna be a challenging road to take. It takes not only guts to deviate from the norm but it also takes a whole load of faith in oneself to take this path. Cause when you deviate from the norm you get the unnecessary remarks from the people around you, mainly to discourage you from pursuing your passion, then again, faith keeps your mind on the path you'll be taking for the rest of your life.

After the last paper

Since my last paper..

I've had:

- Lunch with the Midget =)

- Steamboat session with some of my classmates

- Movie night with Jyun

- Double date with the bestie

- Worked as a student ambassador for the department during the weekends

I've watched :

The King's Speech and Black Swan with Jyun.

The King's Speech is an awesome movie. When I first heard about the movie from my brother, I knew immediately it'll be Jyun's type of movie. So it's a must watch movie in the list with Jyun^^

Black Swan on the other hand, is a pretty dark and a rather disturbing movie. Jyun's reaction towards it by the end of the movie was priceless=p It was alright though. I don't mind watching it again *smiles*

Life as We Know it. Watched it alone since I got that movie from one of my friend (can't remember who gave it to me). Wouldn't say it's a nice movie. But it's alright.

I love cold lazy afternoons where I can stay indoors and watch movies. I've been out a lot since the finals. And waking up early in the morning for 3 days in a row can be really draining. Decided to stay in for a couple of days to recharge and get back the sleep that I've been deprived of for a week.

It was fun working as a student ambassador, although I talked shit most of the time while I was working..XDDDD So it was Jia Hui, Melissa, Sharon, Su Yin, and Khai Lee there. I didn't know so much about that bunch not till I worked with them. I even met Jia Hui's mom in person, joined her and Melissa to talk shit and laughed so much at the crap those bunch managed to conjure.

It's scary reading about the stuff that is happening at the world right now. Praying helps. But it doesn't stop me from thinking about what's next after this. No. The world will not come to an end by 2012. I refuse to believe in that crap.

I saw this incredible looking watch the other day. Owh mannnnn..I want to own that watch.

What are words - Chris Medina

What are words

If you really don’t mean them,

When you say them,

What are words,

If they’re only for good times,

Then they don’t,

When it’s love,

Yeah, you say them out loud,

Those words, They never go away,

They live on, even when we’re gone.

7th and final week

Heeee yakkkkkk!!!!!!

*Flash an ultraman/ninja post*

This week is my final week in campus.

I sat for my final quiz on Monday which is peanuts for most of us,

Presented the stuff that I need to present for my Pet Behavioural studies,

And on my final day of my 3rd semester, we all had a mime presentation.

We all came out with the story line at the eleventh hour, spent 2 days practicing it,

Presented on Wednesday.

It was an awesome experience. We all had so much fun.

Not only we managed to stand out among the crowds at campus (due to the face paint & theatrical outfit), it was fun exaggerating our emotions on stage:)

Sunny the mighty sun is going to do the grand picture opening. The photographs below were all from Sue Yen and of course I played a part to help her to snap some of the photographs below. I'll let the photographs below do the talking:

This is the best group from the bunch. They were so good.

William and Chee Boon were incredibly good on stage.

They make a good pair.

Not only their personality blended with each other well,

But what they did on stage were so natural since on a daily basis those cracks are a natural jokers.

That's William.

Sue Yen and Runa..

Both were good too..

They were both good being a pair in the play..

After all, in class they are the duos anyway=)

Best timing for me to use the flash!

Pretty good effect don't you think?
