i'm a malaysian!!

Guess what? After 6 months of waiting I am finally a Malaysian again. My freaking replacement IC (MyKad) got made and I picked it up earlier at the PJ branch. Phew. No more using my temp IC and explaining to the bank why my MyKad isn't ready. I still can't believe it took freaking 6 months!!

Now I gotta check using Astro if I'm still a Hindu male. Never know how much further they could have phucked it up. I'm just happy I finally got it. =)

ouch...

Damn I just slammed into my bathroom door. Arrgggh. It fucking hurts. Now I got a bump in my forehead. Freaking door. I closed it after spraying some mosquito spray. Forgot all about it and it was dark. Went to pee and bang. Hit the damn door. *Mumble*

are we really a city?!

As of today the 20th of June 2006, Petaling Jaya will be known as a city, no more a town. Whoop di fucking doo. Something the council seem to be very proud of. Even organised a celebration costing around RM2 million. How in the world did we get the title is beyond me. Most of the roads are buggered with potholes and cracks everywhere. Traffic lights still faulty. Many streetlights not even working. Sigh.

Why bother about a title when you can't even do your job right?! And to think we are one of the richest councils in Malaysia. Bah....

world cup 2006...

Finally after months and months of anticipation, speculations and predictions, the Cup of Life has started. First game between Germany and Costa Rica just finished about 2 hours ago and it was one hell of a first game. Germany of course heading up tops with 4 goals to 2. Think I'm going to have multiple sleepless nights and drowsy mornings. Thankfully the games are played at 9pm, 12am and 3am. So most of them I will be able to catch without affecting my life cycle. Sometimes its good to work according to UK hours. =)

Below are some pics to enjoy...

the unity...

the goals...

the pain...

last but not least...the FANS!

so is it good or bad??

Hmmm. Today's date is 6/6/06. Once in a lifetime coincidence. On one part of the world its supposed to be an auspicious day. This is because the number 6 in Hokkien sounds like 'luck' (correct me if I'm wrong on this). And we all know saying luck 3 times in a row is always a good thing. Then you have the other part of the world who believe that 666 is the mark of the beast, the Antichrist. Hence the nicely planned release of The Omen (a remake of course) today.

So which is it? Do we take it as a good auspicious day and paint the town red, get hitched, buy a lottery ticket or take a chance in something. Or do we shy away from it since it related to the Antichrist which would mean bad luck, hell, evil and all that dark stuff. Its weird right how 2 cultures can view the same day in 2 extremes. Good vs Evil. Right vs Wrong.

I for one couldn't care less. Its just another day in our life. You don't need the damn date to be a special number to do something. How can we waste our time using numerology to control our views, actions and life. Don't we already have enough shit in our plate to trouble us already. The only numbers we should be worried about is how much is coming in at the end of the month and how much we gotta take out to survive!
