:: Somethings aren't meant to be complicated ::

Assalamualaikum to all my readers,

~ So true! ~

It's never been easy to deal with the situation where that person you madly in love with is not loving you back. Somewhat agonizing and painful. It gets worst when that person ignores you for the reason that only God know what it is. You know, it is really hard when you are trying to get to the bottom of the problem and trying to sort it out but the other party don't seem interested to join or even try to show interest in it. Then how do you want to set things straight? Problems will not solve by itself. It needs people to talk about it and  brainstorming on how to resolve it. 

Have you guys ever been in this intricate situation before? Please, do share your thoughts.

:: I am no Maria Elena ::

Assalamualaikum to all my readers.

It's been awhile (a year and a half I think) since I last updated anything on this blog. I didn't seem to have passion to blog and I don't know why, it just faded day by day. I don't have anything big to talk about, just wanna see if there is people who still have interest to sit down and read every single word I wrote. It's hard to start again after not doing it for so long. I'm losing the touch. If there is someone can just copy this link to my entry and share it with people out there, I'd be good. But I ain't Maria Elena or Hanis Zalikha to ask for such treatment.

I'm experiencing the hardest time of my life right now which, I will share about it here if people miraculously respond to this entry because what's the point of writing if people don't read. When I write, I hope people respond to it, share their thoughts on the topic discussed because maybe I could use some of the comments and try to apply them in my daily life. Who know's right.

So I think that's all for now. Thank you and have a nice day! :-)

:: See you next week! ::

Assalamualaikum to all my readers.

Finally, the time I have been waiting for has arrived. Today (November 4, 2011) is the day where I will be packing and getting ready to go home. For people who study far from their hometown, this moment is a moment they have been waiting patiently since last week. 

Despite feeling all excited, I also feel nervous because I'm gonna be driving tomorrow. Like I said in one of my previous entry, this is my first time driving home and surely I feel the nervousness because, well, we are just a group of friends who don't know a lot about cars and the fact that I'm the only guy in the group might add a little pressure on my shoulder. Okay, I know I'm exaggerating facts but you never know what will happen.

Will be spending a week at my hometown and even though I have been provided a lot of assignments by my lecturers, they are not gonna stop me from having a great and relax time at home. When I say relax, I really mean relax. Haha. Bubbye books, bubbye lecture notes. See you next week!

:: Driving me home ::

Assalamualaikum to all my readers.

Yay! Last weekend I managed to squeeze through my busy schedule and went to Sunway Piramid with my besties to catch the latest installment of Paranormal Activity, entitled Paranormal Activity 3 (PA3).

For those who favour this Paranormal Activity series, you guys must have known how the story evolved, starting from Paranormal Activity 1. This time around, the story is all about how the haunting begins in the family and who responsible to cause all the disturbance. If you think that PA2 is the scariest, well, think again. PA3 is totally gonna scare the hell out of you. I don't wanna to overwrite here coz I don't want to give out any spoilers so, to feel the creepiness that I'm talking about, go to the nearest cinema and watch it yourself.

Okay, moving on to something more important. Next week is Hari Raya Haji, which means that Pudu Raya and Stesen Putra should be packed with people. Fortunately for me, I don't have to go that far to look for the ticket. In fact, I don't need the ticket. This is because, I'll be driving back home. But I'm not alone guys, there will be two other girls accompanying me. You're now assuming that I own a car, aren't you? Well, to answer that question, that's not my car that I'll be driving in, but it's one of the girls' car. I'm just the co-pilot.

~ Thanks Mr. Google ~

Why I'm bringing this up as if it's never been done by human before? It's not like driving back home is something that you can be proud of and make you famous. Well, there's a reason behind it. I never drove outside of Kelantan, which means I never drove from one state to another. So, this is something big for me as it marks the first time I'm driving so far, from Puncak Alam to Kelantan. I remember the moment I told my dad about this and he was kinda disbelieve at first of what he heard but then I promised him to drive slowly and cautiously so that he can stop worrying about the fact that I'm gonna be driving. 

So far, I feel confident to drive. I'm gonna get a good sleep the night before and gotta read something about changing flat tire and stuffs. You know, just in case. ;P

:: First timer ::

Assalamualaikum to all my readers.

As you can see above, I have changed my header to the one that I have designed and created. Noted that this is my first time creating header using Photoshop and I never done anything using Photoshop. I'm a noob in this business. Haha. 

I just want to share this. Nothing significant. Any comment is appreciated. :)

:: Make use of the experience ::

Assalamualaikum to all my readers.

~ A microscope is medical lab technologists' best friend ~

The new semester has begun, which marks my 5^th semester this year. I still have two more years to finish my life as a degree student and it won’t hard to make you believe how fun and stress out student life can be.

From 5 subjects that I’m taking this semester, two of them are subjects that I’m already familiar with, thanks to my diploma years. My expectation towards these subjects is high because first, I already knew what the subjects have to offer. Second, I don’t wanna look stupid by failing the class that I already took during my diploma years. It’s gonna be interesting to see whether or not I can make use of my experience and knowledge for both of this classes.

I’ll be keeping my finger crossed. Help me Ya Allah. ;D

:: Two Caucasian females and a Malay lady ::

Assalamualaikum to all my readers.

I have arrived here, at my house, in Puncak Alam yesterday and I'm still can't get over the fact that my 4 months holiday is over. Now that I'm here first, I think my housemates expect me to clean up the house and stuff but nahh, I'm just gonna wait for everyone to come. Haha.

Actually I have a funny story to share with you guys. Yesterday, we stopped at Gua Musang R&R for breakfast and while I was checking out the stalls there, I saw a group of Mat Salleh tourist arrived with their Malay driver. I didn't pay a lot of attention to them coz my stomach was grumbling with hunger. So I sat on a table and I saw the tourists walked in and discussing something among them. I think they were discussing on what they want to eat or they didn't know most of the food served at the R&R. The food were typical Malay food so I think they were having problem deciding on what to eat.

 ~ taken from Google ~

Suddenly, two females from the group came to the stall where I bought my breakfast and they were looking at a steamer full of kuih pau with so many different flavors. So they called out the stallholder and a lady came hurriedly towards them, looking a little uneasy. From the table I sat on, I could see that the two Minah Salleh was trying to buy the kuih pau but they didn't know what was the flavor as it was written in Malay. I pitied the lady coz she looked very uncomfortable, trying to explain the meaning of the flavor in English. She called for help from her friends who was cooking inside the pantry but she refused to go out. An old man sitting near my table even made fun of her saying, "Dio gi sekoloh agamo, dop reti kecek Inggerih dio tu (She went to the religious school so she can't speak English),".

I was still eating my breakfast, i couldn't get up to help so my dad came to her rescue. He explained to the two ladies about the flavor of the kuih pau and other dishes that were served at the stall. The Malay lady looked a little embarrass but she could do nothing to help. Me and my sister couldn't stop laughing. We weren't laughing at the lack of capability of the lady to speak English but the situation and the way the two Minah Salleh trying to understand what was being told by the Malay lady that made us laugh. Honestly, I pitied the lady. As a matter of fact, it's not nice to make fun of a person's incapability.

:: Source of pride ::

Salam to all my readers.

This past few weeks, I had encountered so many people who uploaded the stuffs they bought from their shopping spree. With Hari Raya is around the corner, the number of people who is doing that is skyrocketing. 

If a person uploaded a photo or video of her wearing a different style of hijab, maybe she wants to share with the world on how to wear them. If someone published photos of a model taken by them, maybe they wanna share their talent and look for potential client. But what happen if someone who just got home from the mall, take a picture of stuff they bought and purposely upload it (or them) for people to see? I don't think the intention was to give guidance for public to shop. 

Don't expect to see paper bag from Jusco or Pacific in picture they have uploaded coz all you're gonna see are stuffs from for example, Zarra, Topman, Jefferson or any other famous, exclusive and expensive brands. After a minute or two, people will start commenting on the picture, praising you for how rich you are to be able to buy all the branded things and it makes me sick when they try to act all innocent and reply, "Ala, biase biase je ni." when the actual thing they wanna say is "Yeah, I am damn rich!". Even though they claim they're not boosting with pride, at some extent, it will come out sooner or later.

~ The real photo taken from his Facebook ~

There is another thing that got me blurting all the harsh words whenever I see theirs photos. I call them as anak ikan or money boy since they constantly receive expensive gifts from whom they call as brothers. I quite close with one of these people and I know, being a full-time student (or maybe not full time in his case) and still getting money from his parents, there is no way he can afford all that plush stuffs. Every now and then, he'll post a photo of a gift from one of his 'brothers' and caption it with, again, modesty when all his feeling is high-pride.

Well, maybe that's how they chose to live their life. I have no right to say anything to them but like I said, it's really annoyed me when all I wanna do is checking my Facebook latest status and their photos suddenly appeared on my wall. I can't stand people like this, dang it! I'm sorry if any of you feel offended by what I write but this is something that I would call, straight from the heart. Sometime, there's thing that need to be kept low-profile.

:: I'm fine with just one Facebook account ::

Salam to all my readers.

First and foremost, let me make myself clear that I have no intention to annoy someone with my writing  or if there is someone who may not like things that I will be writing here, I just have gotta tell you this - get your ass out of my blog! Hee.

I am aware that this issue has been brought by so many bloggers before me but it doesn't gonna stop me from pouring my ideas and thoughts into this one because there is people who probably still don't understand how much I hate to see people with two or three Facebook account. Opss, I think I may have slipped out my main point right out of my mouth. Haha. 

Fine, I get it. It's your Facebook so, you can do whatever you want with it but honestly dude, do you really need to approve everybody who want to add you as friend and keep making another account so that you can fit everyone in it? If any of you accuse me for being jealous because I didn't get a lot of friend requests, well, please save it. How do you know that I didn't get a lot of friend requests? Haa. See, that's the trick. What? There is also who own a fan page even though they are nobody? Okay, let's not go there coz it's totally a different story. LMAO.

~ Pic courtesy of Google ~

From my understanding, Facebook has limited its number of friends up to 5000++. Theoretically, people who has more than one Facebook account has more than 5000 friends and do they really know each and everyone of them? I add and approve people too but only to whom I feel I know, if not close, quite well mainly from my previous schools, relatives and not to mention bloggers. Moreover, there is also a phrase saying, 'I'd rather have fewer close friends than have thousands of friends who are not there when you need them'. If you still don't have a clue about the hidden meaning of the phrase, go get someone who can break it down for you. 

I better stop writing now. This is just my point of view so if you think you can't handle it, refer to paragraph number 1. Good day everyone!

:: I'm not famous, I'm okay ::

Salam to all my readers.

There is a few questions asked by Anonymous (actually I know who they are but I choose not to reveal their identities) about what is the reason I blog and what did I get from blogging because according to these observers, they look at me as a decadent blogger, whose blog doesn't give anything but wasting of time.

Well, honestly people, when I first started out in this blogging world, I didn't even know there is a vlogger or nuffnang or whatever it is that famous bloggers usually have on their blogs. I was just someone who likes to write about anything, mostly crappy stuffs, and wanted to improve my English thus I chose English as the medium.

I am aware that I am not as lucky as those famous bloggers are, who got famous instantly after posting two to three entries, or having their videos watched by millions of people. I don't get a lot of cash out of Nuffnang, I don't have thousand of followers and most importantly, I don't have a fan page. I'm just a blogger who writes about stuff and never involved in any event created and organized by bloggers. Maybe the fact that I live outside of KL makes me hard to join. 

So, to make thing short and simple, I'm happy with my life right now. Even though people don't recognize me as people do to Anwar Hadi or Hanis Zalikha, I'm fine with that. Whatever it is, I do have a dream to see my blog become a must-read blog one day and people will be like "Have you read the latest article on Judiene's Soul?" "Yeah, I've read it 3 times already." Haha. InsyaAllah.

:: Hitting Bazaar Ramadhan ::

Salam to all my readers.

Lets face it, who is going to be richer the moment Ramadhan draws the curtain down? The answer is the hawkers that responsible for giving you all sort of ready-to-eat food at the bazaar Ramadhan. Every year during this fasting season, people will be more fascinated about where the bazaar will be open up or is it gonna be big like last year or I hope the one who sold ayam percik last year will be selling it this year.

I'm not saying it's wrong to go to the bazaar or anything, it's one of the must-go places during Ramadhan, other than the masjid of course. The bazaar is the alternative way for people to look for their juadah berbuka if their mothers or their spouses are busy and unable to cook for the particular day. Everyone loves to go there, myself included BUT as for me, I go there ONLY if there is no source of food for me to break my fast. Like when I was studying in Seremban last two years, me and my friends often go to the bazaar only because we didn't have the tools for cooking and if we did have, we didn't know how to cook like our mothers do. So, the last resort was, going to the bazaar.

This year, I've got the chance to spend the whole Ramadhan at home and so far, it has been a bless. Been able to sit down and enjoy the meal during berbuka and bersahur with family is a moment you can't get anywhere else. One thing that I really admire about my mother is, she likes to cook for family and we don't have to go to the bazaar anymore since she can cook pretty much everything that is being sell at the bazaar. Well, not all at once of course. My mother is the best! Love you mom! :)

:: Things I do after having a nightmare ::

Salam to all my readers.

Today I woke up quite early, wait, not quite but really early and it was 4.48 am when I looked at the clock. Truth be told, I never woke this early, even my mom was surprised at how early I woke up today. Now, before you judge me and assume that I'm bragging for waking up so early, let me tell you the real reason of why it happened.

I had a nightmare!!! Yes, I was having a nightmare and when I woke up, the images of the ghost in my dreams kept playing in my mind. I was sweating and I had a hard time trying to get back to sleep. Laugh at me if you want but I'm sure each and every one of you must have been in this situation before. It's not that I was so scared that I can't go back to sleep okay, please. Fine! I did feel scared, a bit. Who wouldn't be if you just had a nightmare. Duhh! I'm here not to talk about my nightmare, instead, I want to share with you guys the funny thing I did so that I could remain calm and try to get back to sleep.

First, I recited my prayers hoping that it could make me forget about the ghost's images. When I found that it didn't really work, I switched on the light but the brightness of the light made it even harder to sleep. I used to sleep with the light still on when I was a little and that was why I thought I could sleep if I turn on the light but clearly it is no longer apply at my age. As I was thinking what else I could do to get back to sleep, I noticed a copy of Galaxie magazine on my bedside table. I took it and read it until I heard azan Subuh from the nearest mosque. At that time I was like, kinda relief because finally the dawn is approaching and all of a sudden, the scary images inside of my head vanished.

So guys, if you are happen to be waken up by the nightmare you had, try to imitate my actions and see whether it works for you or not. Hehe. Until then, wash your feet before going to bed. Ciao! 

:: Entertainment industry promise big returns ::

Salam to all my readers.

I am so disappointed in myself. It's been 2 months since my semester break started and I haven't got myself any job. At this moment, most of my friends are working their asses off with part-time job and it's really make me feel like I'm a loser for staying at home and do nothing. It's not like I didn't try looking for a part-time job, I did to be honest.

I've been to interviews and have applied on many jobs but it seems like luck haven't found me yet. Oh, people at KFC did give me a call a couple of weeks ago and it was the manager of KFC franchise at my place. She said she would call me back to set up an interview for me but nahh, I think she lied because until now, there isn't any single call from her. I put high hope on this one but hey, I'm still jobless. 

You know what guys, I've been watching a lot of E! and most of the shows are like The Keeping Up series, Mel B shows, Top Model shows and anything related to the entertainment industry. Sometimes, I feel like involving myself into this shit. Like, doing some acting or modeling or acting. I think I suit acting better coz I'm not tall and buff and HANDSOME enough to become a model. LOL. I don't know. I see those who work in this industry gain a lot of money than we normal people do, especially in Hollywood. They're making like millions of money a month. Or maybe a week.

If there is a chance for me to get into this thing, honestly I would do it. I don't mind got chased by the paparazzi (LOL!!). As long as the source is halal then, why not. It's something that I would love to do just haven't got the chance yet. In Hollywood, you are rich even though you just have a movie or drama came out. I wonder what people might think of me if I ever make my own reality show. Hahaha. Double LOL!!

:: Sazzy Falak is back ::

Salam to all my readers.

I am a big fan of Sazzy Falak. I think she is what modern women are suppose to be like today. She's smart, she's energetic, she's fashionable and she has a great career as a model, a spokesperson, an actress, a host and she recently landed another big role ever in her life, a mom. Yes. She is a mom of a twins, named Iman Lilly and Tiara Rose. 

She had slowed down her pace in the industry and chose to channel her attention to her husband and her pregnancy. Today, on ntv7 Breakfast Show, she made her first appearance I think after giving birth to the twins. She looks breathtaking. Even Nazz joked around with her, stressing on the fact that Sazzy is 30 years old but she doesn't look like one. I agree with him. She looks ageless. Anyway, she has a new movie coming out next month called 'Tolong! Awek Aku Pontianak' alongside Shaheizy Sam if I'm not mistaken.

Wish her good luck and all the best in her career.

:: The journey to employment ::

Salam to all my readers.

Tomorrow is June 11th, marked the 30 days I am home, doing nothing but stuffing my stomach with food and getting my so-called perfect body shape into a plump. Seriously, I could die anytime, boredom is gonna kill me anytime. My dad said it is okay for me to stay home unemployed BUT I have to help my mom do the chores. Picking up my brother from school is a must-do job.

I had been to several places, asking for job. I'd been to clinics, pharmacies, KFC outlet even had an interview at Lavino Furniture store here but none of them have given their answers yet. I wonder if they don't want me but they try to be nice by saying, "We'll call you as soon as we've come up with the decision,". Oh oh, the best part was, I went to the PPD and got interviewed for the substitute teacher post and my field of teaching is English. The officer who interviewed me said that I might be getting the job if there is any vacancy coz majority of people who sent their resumes doesn't have gut to teach English subject. I was extremely excited that I couldn't wait to tell my mom and my dad about this.

But, up till now, I am still unemployed. Maybe there is no vacancy at any school in Tanah Merah. The reason why I really need a job during the 4 months holiday is because I need money. I have planned a vacation to Penang this July and I'm gonna go there alone and stay at my friend's place so, that's really a reason why I need money. And if you think the vacation is not necessary, well think twice, because the finale installment of Harry Potter will be out in mid-July and I have to watch it. I can't imagine myself not watching it in theater. Seriously, Kelantan should get itself a cinema so TGV or GSC, please double up your work on establishing a cinema here. 

I think this should be sufficient for an entry. I couldn't think of anything else to be written here. Oh, I'm gonna keep my finger crossed so that I'm gonna get a job soon and guys, please, pray for my future. Or I can't go to Penang. Haha. Until then, ciao!

:: I want my girl to be like her ::

Salam to all my readers.

Did you guys watch Keeping Up With The Kardashians? It is a reality TV show about Kourtney, Kim and Khloe Kardashian and their crazy, banter and antics family, with their busy and funny mom, Kris Jenner, trying to get her family together. It is a interesting show to watch, really, coz, I don't know, I just like to watch it. The show is gonna premiere its six season this week, June 12 on E! Channel.

It is not the show that I wanna talk about, instead, I wanna highlight about one of the main role in this show, Khloe Kardashian. I didn't get to watch the show quite often before this because my dad didn't subscribe to the E! Channel and the only source I got was the Youtube but since he changed his mind and subscribed it, I don't miss a single episode. Okay, what about Khloe that I really like? Well, she's not the prettiest Kardashians in the family but to me, she is. Why, because she's just like a breath of a fresh air.

~ the whole crew ~

~ Khloe at the blue carpet of People's Choice Award 2011 ~

~ Kim, Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian ~

Usually we describe women who have long legs, big boobs, slim and tall as a bombshell but Khloe doesn't possess all these characteristics. I put her under plus-size category because she is big and tall. She's not fat, she's curvy, you know, like Jordin Sparks. Unlike her, Khloe has this aura, I don't know what to call it but she has this strong, powerful-looking woman. I don't know, I just like her. So so much. I really wish that one day I could have a girlfriend who is tall and big, just like her. Majority of guys would go for slim figure women but I'll pass. Haha. I find plus-size women are more attractive than slim figure women. Khloe is married now, to a LA Lakers player, Lama Odom.

:: The twins attack! ::

Salam to all my readers.

Ya know, I always like the idea of having a twins in my family. Seriously I do. Whenever I see twins I will go like, "This is a must-have item after I got married.". Haha. Twins are not like any ordinary people. Apart from the fact that they are twins, they tend to attract a lot of attention from the public, especially if the twins wear something similar and many eyes will fascinatingly rest on them.

I have heard stories, most of them inspiring, from the people who got a chance in life to raise twins and it is easy to assume that they had a true joy experiences in raising them. So, the question is, why is this twin people exist? From what I have learned in school, identical twins or known as monozygotic, form from a single fertilized egg and splits into two parts, resulting in the development of two embryos. Because of the two embryos come from a single egg/sperm fertilization, they have the same genetic origin. There is no authentic solid reason why the egg split into two, maybe it's a malfunction of the normal development process. To know more, go check your biology textbook.

If my wife pregnant and I have a 'choose' button whether you want identical twins or non-identical twins, I definitely go for identical twins. The number one reason why I want twins is because I want them to look alike. Non-identical twins is similar to any ordinary children, except for you will not be having children that share the same age. What's the point of wanting a twins if you don't want them to be identical right? I will buy them the same cloth, the same toys, damn, it's gonna be interesting! Hehehe.

~ Amanda and Michelle : the first ever twins made it to ANTM ~

~ Dylan and Cole Sprouse, who play Zack and Cody Martin in The Suite Life of Zack and Cody ~

Okay, I may like a twins-maniac here but don't get me wrong guys. I am not gonna hate my single-birth children just because my wish to have twins is not granted. I will love them equally. Haha. But hey, according to this article that I read, there is no established connection between genetics and monozygotic twinning. Scientists have not really found and confirmed clear cause for monozygotic twinning, which you already knew how it is occurred inside of the women's womb. All parents have a reasonably equal chance of getting identical twins. Now, that's a great news to hear! :P

p/s : may Allah push away all the complications if I were to get a twins babies. Hehe

:: I dreamed a dream ::

Salam to all my readers.

Yesterday I asked my mom, can I be a model? No. That was what she said. And I asked her why. She said I am too big to be a model, which I kinda agree with the statement, and later she added, model don't wear glasses so, if I want to be a model, I need to wear contact lens or go to the hospital and get my eyes fixed. I was laughing hearing her opinions on me becoming a model.

I think in our life, I certainly believe that, we do have this kinda feeling. The feeling of becoming somebody that is not us and somebody that is far out of our reach. This is not ambition. Ambition is more like a strong desire to do or achieve something in life, but this is different. The feeling when you're watching TV and you see Celine Dion performing and getting big applause from the audience and suddenly you say, I wanna try to be like her for one day. This is the feeling that I'm talking about.

This maybe a lil bit embarrass to admit but okay, fine, I think wanna try to be a model for a day. Laugh your heart out if you want but it is really something that I feel like I wanna be if Allah granted me a chance to be somebody else, which by all means, is not gonna happen in real life. It's okay to dream, the last time I checked. I'm gonna put the blame of shows like America's Next Top Model (ANTM) coz for some reasons watching the show kinda influence me a bit, or maybe not a bit, but the thing is, it all started with the show.

There was also times when I sat on my comfy couch and imagined how fantastic it would be to see myself playing a role on the silver screen and to see my face handsomely on the poster of blockbuster movies. I wrote about this once, click here to read more on what type of movie I would like to be in if I was an actor. Haha. In real life, I am nobody. I want to feel the pride, the glory when people cheering at me and people calling out my name when I walk down the street. "Judiene!" "Judiene!". Boy, it turns me on! Haha. I successfully managed to make myself look pretty stupid and lame. LOL!

~ one of my favourite actor he is ~

Come on people, don't act like you never had a dream like this. Don't lie to me, or at least, don't lie to yourself. Feel free to share some of your dreams here. Put away all your shyness, I promise, it's only you and me. Hehe. Until next time guys, ciao!

:: Short forms in blogging is unacceptable ::

Salam to all my readers.

Yessss! Finally we are back in business. I bet all bloggers are gonna update their new posts now. Haha. I wonder what is the new improvement blogspot did coz it looks like the same to me. Nothing new. Hurmm.

Okay, lets get straight to the main points. I've been doing lot of blogwalking this past few days since blogspot was outage and I have come across quite a number of blogs that prefer to use short form words rather that spell it in a full form. Lets take a look at an example of sentence below.

'ktrg dh abis exm. nh la pdhnya bla jd bdak stat, slalu jer jd pntp pntu pagar U. hbs je exm, apa lg blik trus kms2 brng..'

To the owner of the blog who I copied this sentence from, I'm truly sorry. I don't mean to embarrass you or to humiliate you. I kinda get really annoyed reading a blog that is written like the sentence above and I can't wait for the entry that I am reading to end. It's okay to use these short forms when texting messages through phone but I find it unacceptable when you're writing an essay or something similar to that, you know, like a letter or something.

You guys probably say 'ikut suka aku lah blog aku' but at the end of the day, you want your readers to feel comfortable while reading your entries and you don't want them to kinda like searching for the 'X' button 10 seconds after dropping by at your blog. It will not kill you or weary your fingers to spell the word in its full form. I suggest to every blogger who are using this method to write their entry to start spelling the words the way it is. Trust me, your entry will look nicer and tidier.

:: AF students can't sing English songs?? ::

Salam to all my readers.

I am a big fan of reality TV singing competition. I watch shows like X-Factor (XF), American Idol (AI), One in a Million (OIAM), Mentor and Akademi Fantasia (AF). Whatever you say folks but these kinda shows really got me glued in front of the TV and there was a moment where I talked to myself and went like, "I think I was born to be in the industry, you know, whether as a singer, songwriter or producer." Hahaha. What a funny thought is that.

Okay, I'm not sitting in front of my lappy just to talk about my unaccomplished desire of becoming someone in a entertainment industry or fashion industry (wth!) but there is another topic worth to talk about. If you watch AF, regardless of any season, there will be a time when the students are gonna be tested with an English song. I notice something 'unhealthy' going on, I don't know if you guys did too. Majority of the students will be like kinda frustrated or scared whenever they get English song to be sang. Some of them will just cry or express their anxiety regarding the song. Have you ever notice that??

Well, in my opinion, there is no reason to be like that coz we've been taught English since we were in standard one and the song doesn't require them to give out a speech or to talk in front of the audience in English, they just need to sing the lyrics out in rhythm. Basically that is what they do right, singing. You don't necessarily have to be 100% grammatically perfect to sing an English song. The words are there, written on the paper and all they need to do is just practice the pronunciation that's all. They even have Puan Fatimah Abu Bakar to help them with that so, no point to be frustrated or go in front of the 'talking' camera and say that you don't like the song and etc. This kinda shit is really not acceptable.

~ I praise Farhan for her ability to sing English song perfecly ~

~ He sounded so bad when he sang in English during one of the concert in AF3 ~

This incident happen to every season of AF. Even I remember how scared Mawi was when he received an English song entitled 'Beautiful Maria'. I'm sure a lot of AF fans will go against me on this one but in order to become a versatile and a good singer, being able to sing in English is a must! Do not spit on me for telling you the truth. The students should be ready to uptake whatever songs that they are given, no matter what language it would be.

Last but not least, happy holidays guys! Ciao!
