You Will Be Loved

A dear friend of mine just got engaged with his girlfriend who is with him for these last few months. I don’t really know her but from the story I’ve heard, she was a nice and honest girl who is very loyal and really in to my friend. So yeah, of course, I considered that my friend would be happy and love her back with all of his heart, right?
Wrong. A few days ago, I’ve got a phone call from my friend asked me to come over to his house because of he needed someone to talked to. As a good friend, of course, I made my time for him and gave him a visit. Then he told me that he was going to brake the engagement up sometime soon because he doesn’t feel happy with this relationship. I was like, what’s wrong? I thought she was a nice girl? My dear friend then were like, yeah, she is a nice girl and very honest too, not like some others, but I don’t feel the connection with her. I feel so bored whenever am with her, said my friend.
In a different kind of story, there’s a girl that I knew for a very long time, great friend of mine but not close who is happily married and loved by her husband like no other while in the other hand, I know for sure that she wasn’t that kind of honest nor a nice girl. She was always lies about so many things, sometime small and sometime big to covered up the lies that she created before, but, seems like she is some kind of a lovable person. Everyone loves her and wants to be close to her while she was never tried to hide the fact that she is not that nice type of girl who you will be proud to take home and introduce to your mum. Never.
So, my point is, now at this stage I realized that you don’t have to be nice just to be loved by someone, and of course, you don’t have to be bad as well just to be hated by someone. Because, believe me, love and hate are working in funny way. Maybe they were right when they said love is blind. But the thing is, I do believe that love unfolding so many things in life, including boundaries. When am in love with someone, I would easily justified his negative things and take them no matter what. And just because of you are a nice person, doesn’t mean that everyone will love you. You have to have that lovable factor in you. And vice versa, just because of you are not that nice and kind type of person, doesn’t mean that no one would love you. There is actually a very thin line that separate good and bad, so for me, there is no such a good guy nor a bad guy. Because I do believe that no one could define the standards of those things correctly. There’s a guy that I met sometime last year and became very close with me because I found a very good connection with him that makes me could care less when my friends said something bad about him. One thing that my friends didn’t understand is, I don’t decided to be close with him because of he’s a nice guy or whatever, but more because of I feel great around him and I don’t care if it’s for a good or a bad reason.
But NO, I don’t try to encourage anyone to be a bad person here, NO WAY! What am trying to say is just be yourselves, if you want to change yourselves for the sake of your own good then it is a very good of you, but you don’t have to change the ’you’ inside you just to win someone else’s love. Because, trust me, no matter how bad you are, you will be loved by someone eventually!

Love You Lately..(A Poem)

I know you're not the one for me
I know you're not my destiny
I know our love was only temporary
But honey, I love you lately
I know you and me are living in some kind of memory
I know you're only hold me in my fantasy
I know you were never be my Mr. McDreamy
But baby, I love you lately
I know your plans don't included me
I know we both never care for each other deeply
I know that was out of our capacities
But my dear, I love you lately
I know yesterday you said you love me
I know it was only your sweet remedy
I know you and me won't be in any harmony
But sweetheart, I love you lately
I know I never treat you the way I should be
I know I don't deserve the love you gave me
But I know for sure that you never mind of any
'Coz deep inside your heart darling, you do know that I love you lately
^_^

À mon Jour férié Dans Goa..je vous aime dernièrement

Heartless (A Poem)

So what if I have no feeling?
So what if am a heartless type of girl?
I am who I am and am not gonna change myself just to make you happy
I may be your friend but am not the one to follow you
So what if I don't show you that I care?
I tried to tell you that am sorry and I didn't do it on purpose, I think you know
So what if I said something that hurt your feeling?
I was a human being like everyone else and I do make mistake, oh yes, I do
So what if I did something wrong?
I wasn't perfect and so do you
So what if I make you angry?
I can't be nice all the time as maybe you think you do?
So what if everything doesn't go well as what we want it?
But one thing for sure, am as innocence as you are in this thing
But if you don't thing so
Then yeah, why the heck should I do?
I can care less about everyone and even you
As I am a heartless one and maybe I went too far on this thing
But I really don't know how to fix it
Nor that I want to undo it
So I just let everything goes as it is
This is not what I want but I won't change anything for nothing
Call me a stone heart, but why should anyone fix something that not even brakes?
What's the point of fixing something that doesn't need to be fix?

If Tomorrow Never Comes..(My Deepest Feeling Inspired By A Song With Same Title)

Sometimes late at night, I lay awake in dark, the thought crosses my mind…if I never wake in the morning, would you ever doubt the connection between us? The true feelings that we share everyday? Would you ever doubt the way I feel about us in my heart?
If tomorrow never comes, will you know how much I love you? How much I adore you? Despite on everything that they said about you? Despite on how we are definitely not a true match, despite on how you had a problem understanding me and vice versa?
If my time on earth were through, and you must face this world without me, is the love that we share in the past is going to be enough to last? Is the love I gave you each day in the past is going to be enough to occupied you?
If tomorrow never comes, will you keep me in your heart? Will you kiss me for the last time? Will you mention my name in every pray you made before you go to bed? Will I be the one in your mind before you close your eyes every night? Will you ever doubt that we is belong to you and me?
If tomorrow never comes, I would like to take this chance to tell you how I feel about you, about us, about you and me. I know I failed to show you everyday how much I love you, how much I care. If tomorrow never comes, I want you to know how much I bother. I don’t want to regret it when my true feeling for you never revealed. So now I make a promise to myself, that I will say it to you each day how much you mean to me and avoid the circumstance where there’s no second chance to show you that you’re still the one. If tomorrow never comes, I want to tell you what am thinking of…if tomorrow never comes, will you know how much I love you?

une lettre ouverte à mon Jour férié Dans Goa, vous êtes toujours celui..

My Silence

My silence doesn't mean that am mad
Nor that am sad
My silence doesn't mean that am angry
Nor that am lonely
My silence sometime means that am unhappy
But mostly because of am grumpy
My silence sometime doesn't really mean anything
My silence sometime only because of I haven't say nothing
My silence sometime really-really because of I really haven't say anything

The Jinx Of Interlagos

If any of you guys watched the Brazilian F1 Grand Prix last night at Interlagos Circuit, then you must be understand what am talking about here. Yeah, the circuit of Interlagos, which in English means Interlake, is located in between a lake and it’s about 1,000 m above sea level. On the qualification rounds, the weather was devastated, it was pissing down so that they have to stop the qualifying thing after the second round as the location of the race was flooded. And the worst thing that could happen was that because of its location is on the hill which very close with the cloud levels so if any accident happened, the chopper won’t be able to landed and fly anyone to the hospital, so yeah, that is why they have to stop the race.
Thankfully, on the race day last night the weather was beautiful. Was a little bit cloudy at some part, but they reckon it won’t be rain until the end of the race. But here is the thing, the circuit of Interlagos is a full of melodramatic circuit. So many things happened here that worth to be watch. Yeah, even the race was on like in the middle of the night here in Indonesia, but I refused to close my eyes, I even forgot to blink sometime! If you guys following the F1 Grand Prix like I do, then you must still remember what happened last year on the race when Massa, the homeboy driver, won the race and celebrated his victory as a World Champion? That same time, Hamilton battled Vettel for the crucial point needed to win the Championship, but seemly he couldn’t do it. However, as the result of using dry tyres on wet weather, yeah…the rain began to fall heavily on lap 69, Timo Glock who was at fifth position at that time had to slowed down at the last corner of the track because of he was struggling for grip as his dry-weather tyres slid on the wet track and allowed Vettel to take the fifth position and handed Hamilton a world championship title that was holding by Massa for a few seconds and crowned him as the youngest championship winner! What a drama!
This year’s race was even more dramatic than last year. First of all, Massa couldn’t join the race after that fatal accident that he had a couple of race ago at Hungarian Grand Prix that put him to a rest for the rest of the season. So, all of the attention went to Barrichello as a homeboy driver, which he done very well on the qualifying round by holding the pole position for the race. His teammate and my favorite driver Button, on the other hand, didn’t do it quite well as he failed to show his best performance on wet weather which was his specialty while he was actually needed only six points above Barrichello to win the championship title. But, right from the start Button benefited from carnage to jump up from his 14th grid place to ninth at the end of a dramatic first lap. It began when Kimi Raikkonen’s Ferrari brushed wheels with Adrian Sutil’s Force India going into the first corner, which is a critical point of the track calls Senna Ace, named after the great Brazilian driver Ayrton Senna who died on a tragic accident at San Morino circuit of Italy on 1994. Then Sebastian Vettel’s Red Bull tagged Heikki Kovalainen’s McLaren on the exit, the Finn spinning and forcing Ferrari’s Giancarlo Fisichella to run on to the grass in avoidance.
Further round the lap Jarno Trulli pulled his Toyota alongside Sutil but lost control as he was squeezed over the outer curb. He tangled with the Force India, each spinning off in different directions. As Sutil speared back on to the track, he bounced right in front of Renault’s Fernando Alonso, who had nowhere to go and retired with rear suspension damage. Not surprisingly the safety car was deployed as debris all over the place was cleared up while on the sideway, Trulli confronted or even almost attacked Sutil as he blamed the man for causing the incident which according to my opinion wasn’t his fault at all. In fact, he was barely did anything wrong to my knowledge, but hey, maybe I know nothing about the race?
As if all that wasn’t dramatic enough, there was excitement in the pits as Kovalainen and Raikkonen both stopped at the end of the lap. The Ferrari driver had damaged his front wing against Webber, who had got away second behind Barrichello at the start. Kovalainen pulled away too soon from refuelling, taking his fuel hose with him. Raikkonen, right behind, then ran through a flash fire as fuel spewed from Kovalainen’s trailing fuel hose. Jokingly, the commentator mention about the iceman Raikkonen who seemed to stay cool even in the fire, hah!
When the racing resumed on the sixth lap Button launched an attack on Franco-Swiss rookie Renault driver Romain Grosjean. They ran side by side and re-passed one another a couple of times in some tense wheel-to-wheel racing, but this was the Jenson Button who won six of the first seven races and he wasn’t having any of that and soon settled the issue. Next on the list was Williams’ Kazuki Nakajima, whom he deposed on the seventh lap. Rookie Kamui Kobayashi proved tougher, but after one failed attempt in Turn One Button made is stick.
From the 35th lap he had the championship in his sights, as the pit stops ebbed and flowed. The ones that really mattered came from the 50th lap onwards. Barrichello pitted then from second place. On Lap 55 Button pitted from third. On Lap 56 Vettel pitted from third. When the dust had finally settled on the 59th lap, Webber was leading Kubica by 5.2s, with Barrichello third from Hamilton, Vettel and Button. Thus Button had 88 points; Barrichello 77, Vettel 73. The miracle had happened. Poor Webber, as the Australian driver reeled off the final laps after a superb drive that was inevitably overshadowed by the title drama, and Kubica maintained his surprise second place despite nursing an overheating engine, Hamilton came pushing up behind Barrichello after McLaren cleverly changed his strategy after the first-lap carnage, and overtook him on the 61st lap. The Brazilian, so desperate to win on his home ground, was in trouble. A tyre had punctured, and he needed to make a third pit stop two laps later. It was the final icing on Button’s cake, as he jumped up to fifth place behind Vettel.
Finally, with 89 points nobody could beat Button whatever happens in Abu Dhabi, and to rub salt into Barrichello’s wounds he dropped to third on 72 behind Vettel’s 74. All through the slowing down lap, Button sang over the radio to his delighted team: “We are the champions my friends!” And afterwards he could not stop himself. “It’s great to be sat here as the world champion, and personally I feel that I deserve it. I was the best over 16 races and that’s what world champions are. I am it. I am a world champion! And I’m going to keep saying it all night!” Honestly, I love when someone knew that he or she deserved the winning. That's my friend, what I call self confidence! Jenson Button went into the Brazilian Grand Prix looking for a miracle and he found it. It made him Britain’s 10th world champion, and marked the first time England has celebrated back-to-back drivers' titles. At the same time, his success was more than sufficient to cement the constructors’ title for Brawn, a unique and historic achievement in their first season. Sweet!

Move Over, Guys…Brad Pitt Is Coming To Town!

So the rumor has spread. Yeah, starting today, October 16th, the shoot of the film Eat, Love, Pray is began in the island of Bali. As the star of the film, Julia Roberts will be here for the solid one week, together with her producer Brad Pitt. Yup, the film is produced by B Movie, a company used to owns by Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston but not anymore since their over published divorced on 2005. All the girls in town went mad as the news leaked. One of my dear friend was even plan the trip to Ubud, where they shoot the film, even way before they came. Hah, talking about the star struck thing!
Here’s the thing, I have nothing against anyone who chase stars in their spare times, but for me, they are not in my circle anymore. Come on guys, what was the last film of Julia Roberts? I can see everyone has a problem to even mention it, and no, it’s not Ocean 13. Actually it was Duplicity which she was co-starring with Clive Owen, I guess, and no it wasn’t a box office at all. As a matter of fact, for me, it was suck! Well, I don’t mean to tell you guys that she is already became a ‘Hollywood Has Been’ but yeah, the spark wasn’t there anymore. At least, to me, I can’t see it anymore. Even in Ocean 13, which was a very cool movie, she lost her superstar charmed in it. Luckily the film was starred by such a great male actors that actually safe the film from being slumped. That was also according to me.
Back to the craziness in the island of Bali, where duo ‘Hollywood Almost Have Been’ were shoot the film Eat, Love, Pray, I was like don’t understand at all why do people even bother? It’s only Brad Pitt, you guys! Call me weird, but I can’t see why do girls love him? A friend of mine even named one of his son from his character in the movie Legend Of The Fall, which made her fell in love with him! I don’t know guys, maybe I am a weirdo, but yeah, am not so much for any Hollywood leading man. I might be hysterical if Adam Lambert is here, or that Vince guy from Entourage, or Gerald Butler, and yeah...maybe even Collin Farrell. But apart from that, I don’t think so.
And talking about the reason why they were here, even more boring. Have you guys read the book? Yeah, am talking about ‘the’ Eat, Love, Pray book here. My best friend said that she was reading that book since, I don’t know, five months ago maybe? And she stuck at page 5 until now, she couldn’t finish it. Yeah, it was that boring, beside what do you expect from a book that wrote by a woman, about a woman, and dedicated to women? Duh! Am so sorry, I don’t mean to be a b*tch, I just want to tell you my opinion about this thing. Maybe am a fool, but even until today, I still think that yoga and or meditation and its gang was only for boring people and Sting, hah! So yeah, I never interested to read the book at first place, which for me is going to waste my time. But hey, everyone has their own taste, right? Then of course, I don’t really care about Brad and Julia who were in town at the moment, but I do wish everyone luck on their star struck thing..so, good luck, guys! Aaah, what the heck...Ubud for the weekend, Darling?

Don't Judge A Book By Its Cover (?)



I read this phrase not so long ago on my friend’s Facebook’s status and did not pay any attention on it until a couple of months ago, I met a guy in a club who was at that time approaching me but then at the end became a dear friend of me and my gang. When we told him about why did we welcome him in our closed and tight group, which was because of he looks alright (come on, I can’t be too obvious by saying that he looks great here, can I?), he was like amazed but then called us shallow as he said that our group judging people by their looks from the outside.
Okay, before we talk about that, let me tell you about this phrase first. The very common English idiom "don't judge a book by its cover" is a metaphorical phrase which means "don't determine the worth of something based on its appearance". It is probably the most common expression used in English to convey vanity. The phrase first appeared in the American journal American Speech in 1944 as "you can't judge a book by its binding." In 1946 the phrase appeared in the murder mystery novel Murder in the Glass Room (by Edwin Rolfe and Lester Fuller) as "you can never tell a book by its cover." It was further popularized by the 1947 movie "The Bachelor and the Bobby-Soxer," in which Cary Grant references the idiom anecdotally before saying the line "never judge a book by its cover." While the phrase itself may be born of the 20th century, the idea has existed much longer. In the 1st and 2nd centuries AD, the Roman author Juvenal wrote in his Satires, "Fronti nulla fides," (Satires II,8) which translates as, "Never have faith in the front.”
Back to my point, actually I was a little bit confused with the phrase. Let me explain to you guys here, why did I confuse? Here’s the thing, when it comes to judging something, for me, that means that I didn’t know anything about what I was going to judge, right? I mean, am not going to judge about something or someone that I already knew. It doesn’t call judging if we already knew about it, don’t you think so? Then yeah, when it comes to something that we didn’t know, of course we judge them by how they look from the outside, duh! Let me give you an example here, if you met a guy in a club then he was like approaching you while he was like not so much for an outlook, would you even smile to him? Would you even think of okay, I think he’s a nice guy so I’ll talk to him? Would you? I don’t think so. How do you know that he was a nice guy if you just met him at that point? How do you decide whether he worth a shot or not if you never met him before? Of course, you decide it by judging him from his appearance! Like when you saw a guy who you don’t know riding a bike recklessly with only surfing shorts on and body full of freckles, what was the first thought that came in to your mind? Exactly…OZ! How do you tell? By his appearance, definitely! And why do you think some people put false pictures of themselves on their so called social networking site’s account if they think that no one will judge them by their outlooks? Or why do you even bother checking on how do you look in the mirror before you left your house if nobody even care. That’s so human, guys! And it’s not shallow at all, well…at least for me it’s not.
Before you guys say something, let me now give you another example and this time is literally. If they said ‘don’t judge a book by its cover’ then why would they even bother to put a great picture and or design when they published a book? Nobody is going to decide whether they are going to buy that book or not by the look of its cover, isn’t it? Hah! So yeah, am so sorry guys…call me shallow or whatever, but of course, as a normal human being, I do judge a book by its cover. So don’t blame us if when the guy that I mention above, asked me to meet him again the next day after we met at a club that night, I was like asked my friends’ opinion about that. And guess what did they say? Yeah, they were like…he looked alright, he dressed properly, and he smelled good, so yeah…welcome to the club! Come on guys, we can’t say that he was a great or nice guy yet, we barely knew him at that time! But now after a while, we decided to maintain our friendship with him because of he was in fact a great guy, with a look as a bonus, hah! So the point that I am trying to tell you is, do judge a book by its cover, but don’t decide whether it worth a keep or not just by its appearance.
^_^

À tous mes chers amis, merci de l'inspiration ... vous la roche de gars!

Facebook Bloopers

After joined the Facebook, a so called ‘friendship network’, I realized one thing…that some people who doesn’t know how to deal with this site often using it inappropriately. So yeah, many of them made some stupid mistakes and ended up in trouble. A friend of mine who had planning his boyfriend surprised birthday party last week made her status on Facebook telling everyone that she was doing it. And yeah, her boyfriend is also in the Facebook! I know…that what was I thought so too, how stupid could it be? How big that she thought the chance for her boyfriend not to check on her page just to find out about it? But that was nothing compare to a guy name Kevin something who lives in London, this one I got from splatter mail telling a story about the guy who skipped work one day, told his boss that he had a family emergency that forced him to flew to New York that day. But funny thing is, the next day his picture showed up in his Facebook with him wearing a costume in one of those Halloween party that night somewhere in town! What an idiot! Now it’s not just that he had to deal with his boss who fired him in public using his Facebook page, but he also had to deal with the humiliation about those tutu skirt and make-up that he had in the picture, hah!
But yeah, that was absolutely nothing at all compare to this story I am going to tell you. Yup, you guys are right if you think that am saving the best for last. This one is about a forty something years old woman name Tracy something who filled in her relationship status column on her Facebook said that she’s engaged. I don’t know for sure if this is a real thing or a fake thing, but, it was just proofed me more about how older people should be careful with this digital technology thing. I mean, they aren’t ready for the digital information overload that is our lives. They have difficulty distinguishing between what is public and what is private when it comes to the Internet. So the information they throw out there often gets filtered incorrectly and they unknowingly make their private life too public. They’re unaware how to adjust privacy settings and gain control of what information is displayed and who gets privilege to that info. To them, nothing is black and white. It’s all gray and fuzzy. And that is where the problem lies! If you don’t know the ins and outs of Facebook and or Twitter, and their other web friends, DO NOT USE THEM! When it comes to social networking sites, what you don't know can hurt you. So yeah, say no more but just read this page above and please tell me how should I reacted to this? LOL?
If she hasn't been laid in months, something tells me this Michael she's conversing with (and pounding her like a lion) isn’t her fiancé. Dirty girl! Am so sorry Tracy, but am with Jeff in this case…yeah, I would probably said ’nice’ too in my comment, only for me, it would be ’niiiiiiiiiiiiice’, hah! And yeah, I would probably play dumb as well by not immediately answer her question and telling her how to delete those wall posting. Definitely, I would let it there for…yeah, at least one night, just to see others’ reaction on it. Maybe that’s mean, but something like this is too priceless not to bask in for a while. However, the moral of the story here is a simple one. If you don’t know how to properly/fully use something, don’t use it. Now if you still want to use something, but don’t know how to properly/fully use it, LEARN. Or if you're Tracy, you'll eventually learn, the hard way though.
Call me a snob, but I liked it better when Facebook was only open to those who had a college or university e-mail address. Ah yes, those were the good old days when your Mom couldn’t friend you and stalk you on Facebook! The good old days when I wasn’t subjected to oldies men sending me messages on Facebook thinking this was the new Match.com or eHarmony. It’s Facebook. It’s a social networking site, NOT a dating site! There is nothing on my Facebook page that says I’m looking for a guy who are old enough to be my father or that I’m searching for a man whose kids I have more in common with than him. I’m sorry and I don’t mean to be a b*tch, but I’m just not interested. Now when it comes to Tracy, I'm pity her for not having a knowledge about the website but still insisted to use it.

Searching God (Part 2)

Yesterday’s earthquake struck along the same fault line as the tremor that caused the tsunami five years ago that claimed the lives of 232,000 on Sumatra, across South-East Asia and as far away as the East African coast. The island, ravaged by the Boxing Day tsunami of 2004 and a long-running civil war in the province of Aceh, had only just begun to recover. A powerful earthquake that struck western Indonesia yesterday triggered landslides and trapped thousands of people under collapsed buildings -- including two hospitals, officials said. National Disaster Management Agency says the deaths were counted in the coastal Sumatran city of Padang, following Wednesday's 7.6 magnitude quake. At least 200 bodies were found in one coastal city and the toll was expected to be far higher.
Some people who put religious thing on a strongest position would think of this disaster as a punishment from God of what we did wrong in the past. Well, I never see it that way. Okay, you can say that am not a religious type of person, but I do believe in one thing and that thing is my God doesn’t do revenge. I believe that if God wanted us to leave in a peaceful harmony, then why would He does such thing? Doesn’t make any sense to me. Have you ever think of this might be has something to do with our mistake to the nature? Our failure of keep the balance in our daily basis? How did we destroy our rain forests so that they can not hold any more water for us and how did we take all of those sands to build all of those sky reaches buildings?
The thing is guys, I think that we need to start using our common sense instead of those mambo jumbo things. Everything that we could answer logically. Oh no, am not asking you to stop all of those prays that you did on your daily routine, for sure we need them at some points. But, instead of doing those prays all day long, why don’t we start to fix the damage that we caused to our nature, and let see what happen next? Gosh, now I can understand why all of those Hollywood superstars seeking answers in that Scientologist belief, because they were tired of seeking answer from the holly bible just to find out that when you believe in God, you don’t doubting His words. Well, guess what…I do believe in God but my head also demanding some common sense answers for all of my questions.
When the first time I wrote about “Searching God”, a dear friend who doesn’t believe in God, suggested me to visit a website about how God was actually just a doctrine from churches and priests to their followers. Wow, kind of scary, huh? Seriously, I was signed out from that website half way through because of am afraid of what the damage that might get in to my soul if I continued watching. To be honest with you, I don’t want to change my belief as am very comfortable with it. Saying that though, it would probably different if my parents didn’t give a strong religious based since I was a kid. But yeah, they did, so here I am.
Back to my point, I just want to tell you guys, at this stage we are not in the position to judge others or even ourselves by saying that what happened yesterday was a punishment from God. I don’t believe that God is that shallow, He’s way beyond that. Unlike us, He’s not an anger type of guy. Beside, He doesn’t need to show off his almighty power just to warn us, He loves us. We’re his creature, aren’t we? So yeah, don’t get me wrong guys, am not against any religious thing here. But, even in my belief, they were always said that, “Do something first, then pray so God will help you with the result of what you were doing.” Did you read that properly? Do something first. And yeah, a dear friend said to me once that everything happened, happens for a reason and I think that he was absolutely correct. But, the thing is, the reason was not always religious.
^_^
To all of my dear friends and relatives who got hit bad time by yesterday's quake, don't worry guys..God loves you all!

Only Dumb Blondes Say “That’s Hot”?

Did you ever watched any of those Newlyweds program on MTV a few years ago? It’s a reality show of Jessica Simpson and her then husband, Nick Lachey, about their daily routine. So yeah, they let the MTV crew taped their life 24/7. Many people who tuned in to their telly watching the show would probably thought about how stupid Jessica was. Well, I think, even before she opened her mouth the image of dumb blonde was already there. You know, if you see a pretty girl with blonde hair and giggle over everything, then of course, you would think of her as a joke more than anything else. Yeah, she is a redneck alright, but let me tell you something here, she was far from being stupid. And to be honest with you, I think she was indeed a very smart girl and was playing around with everyone here.
I remember in one of the show, when they were in one of those typical American Fast Food Chains, and her boys band husband asked her if she would like to have a buffalo wings, then she was like, “I don’t eat buffalo.” Everyone was like, laughed their head off, couldn’t believe what they just heard. But seriously guys, I was like, very, I mean VERY, sure that she was playing around at that time, you know, just to make the show more interesting. Oh yeah, she knew what buffalo wings is for sure. Hey, she a Texan, remember? And it worked! That episode became a phenomenon in the whole country and made more people tuned in to the show. What a smart girl! And don’t forget when she became a spoke person to one of those tin tuna company, then someone asked her what she likes about those tunas, and she was like, ”I think tuna is the best fish meat, it was like chicken of the ocean,” Once again, people were laughed at her and thought that it was the stupidest sentence they ever heard. Well, let me tell you something here people, it certainly was not the smartest thing to say, but I can understand completely what she meant at that time. It means that she thought that chicken is the best meat on ground and tuna is the same thing, only it comes from the sea, so it makes tuna is the chicken of the ocean. So, who’s the stupid one here then? Duh!
So yeah, maybe you think that she is a dumb blonde, but I don’t think so. She was just simply playing around with everyone and what is the benefit for her? Yup, exactly…a multi million dollars brand images for her cosmetics and shoe line. See, I told you how she fool you all, didn’t I? It’s all about the money, guys. I would do the same for the exact same compensation, yeah, I would play dumb if someone willing to pay me to. Hah!
Then came along Paris Hilton, a different kind of ‘dumb blonde’ icon. She was so famous with the words “That’s Hot!” that she always said during her ‘Simple Life’ show on telly. Yup, you guessed it right if you think that it was another reality show, only this one was a little bit different because she did it with her sidekick Nicole Ritchie (yup, you’re right again, she is indeed the daughter of Lionel). The show was about two spoil-rich girls who given up everything they got and had to live in a normal house with a normal family and tried to mingled with their communities. So yeah, no cell phones, no cash, no credit cards, nothing. And they had to worked for the money and actually this was what made the show so funny. These two were absolutely never had any real job, if you can say that, ever in their whole life. But am pretty sure that some of the stupidity that they did was fake or at least exaggerated, that was totally an act, you guys! And I also don’t understand why are people make fun and laughed at the way they speak, you know, with all of those secret phrase that they used? I don’t see anything wrong with that, because you sure do have some secret language when you talk with your best friend, don’t you? Don't you guys get it? It’s a girls thing! And should I mention about how she get paid at least half a million dollars just to appears to any party in the world? So yeah, for those who were skeptical about this dumb blonde thing, well...guess what, am not blonde, and am certainly far from being dumb, but yeah…that’s hot!

The Curious Case Of Jenson Button...And Briatore?

As you guys know that today is the ‘D’ day that everyone been waiting for, specially me, yeah…today is the race day of Singaporean Night Grand Prix. It’s the only night race in Formula One and since I missed the last year race over my busy schedule (yeah…right!) then of course, I won’t miss it again this year since it was only two and a half hours flight from Bali to Singapore. So yeah, despite on how expensive the accommodation during the race period is, but what the heck…I am so coming!
Formula One race is one of the biggest events in sports calendar since it was full of prestigious, glamour, and sophisticated people in the world of sports and life style. Most of the driver were always have pretty girls by their side, such as supermodels, singer, actress, or socialites. So don’t be surprise if you come to the events and accidentally bump in to someone familiar to your wall of fame. Yeah, it was more like having an award show in front of you, only with a little sporty touch in it. Not to mention all of those parties that arranged by almost every major clubs in town and all you have to do is just flash your F1 ticket then you can enter any of those party, yay! And since Singapore is a very tiny country, then of course, they don’t have any race track. So, just like Budapest and Monaco, we are talking about street track here and actually that is what makes it more interesting. Unlike Monaco and Budapest, where the tracks were pretty boring and having less overtaking points, this street track is more challenging as it is more bumpy and more dusty. Not to mention the heat and the humidity of the weather, so yeah…it’s going to be tough.
On the practice sessions, Hamilton made the best record together with Red Bull team who was using Ferrari technology for their engine. My favorite was always Button, well…at least since Montoya quit then doing those NASCAR things, then yeah…I have no choice, do I? So if you ask how I feel about yesterday qualifying, then the answer is…for sure, deeply, terribly, disappointed. Why? Because Button was not even made it to third session qualifying! Therefore, he has to start at twelve position on the race tonight. Duh! But yeah, seeing him during practice sessions, I was knew that he wasn’t that confidence about this race as he was one of the driver who constantly complained about the heat, the dusts, and the bumps on the road. But to be honest with you, I think that what makes any street track unique and challenging as it is actually a normal road. And despite on any complaints that made by the drivers, the authorities in Singapore actually already tried their best to fixed the conditions. And compared with last year, this year condition is way more acceptable and if you can say, of course, driver friendly. But of course, it was nothing like a real track and yeah, it still bumpy for sure. I can understand why Button had an issue about this and seeing his body language at the practice sessions these last couple of days, I can see how he felt so annoying and maybe threatening?
That’s it then, my interest on this year Grand Prix was ended last night together with Button’s failure. But I still have another interest on the race since it was the first race where Flavio Briatore won’t be at the pit of Renault team anymore. Yeah, for those who haven’t follow the Grand Prix lately, then let me tell you something. Everything was started by an accident caused by Renault young and promising driver Nelson Piquet, Jr at the Singapore Grand Prix last year. And you got it right, if you guessed that he is indeed a son of the legend Nelson Piquet. Here is the thing, when he was just about finishing his contract with the team this year, he was trying to renew his deal with maybe a little bit raised and since he was ordered by the team to crashed last time so Alonso could win the race, then of course, he used that as a weapon. He was kind of threatening the team that he will speak up if they are not renew his contract with a better deal. This thing is not supposed to be a problem as anyone would do the trick anyway. But what makes this one different was when someone inside the team spilt the beans then the F1 authority found out then questioning Piquet. Yeah, at the end of the day, he had to tell the truth and faced the consequences, which was fired from Renault and everyone reckons that he won’t get any job in Formula One ever again. So much for his new deal, eh?
And as a consequences for the team, earlier this week Renault received a two-year suspended ban from the sport, as for Briatore, he was banned indefinitely from motor sport and Pat Symonds, 55, who was the team's engineering director, was banned for five years. Both men had already resigned from the team, on Sept,16. What a drama! So of course, we won’t see the charismatic old man with his long silver hair who was so intense with the race, managing Renault team ever again. And yeah, for me it was kind of weird seeing Renault without Briatore, as for me, he was the mascot of the team just like Schumacher for Ferrari. Then yeah, we will see how Renault technical director Bob Bell taking over Briatore’s position on the race tonight. It won’t be the same, though.

The Blonde Joke

This joke is probably an old one but someone just told me recently and I was like laughed my head off when I heard it as I thought that it was very funny. I know that you might probably heard it somewhere before, but yeah, it’s nothing wrong with retelling it once again. Hey, even a show always has rerun, right? So, here it is;
A guy who was pretty much wasted, came in to a bar and order drinks. After a few shot, he was like having a conversation with the bartender and it became pretty intense. The guy then like, “Hey, have you ever heard about the blonde joke?” Yeah, he was about ready to tell everyone in the bar about the joke, but the bartender was like, “Wait a minute before you say anything. Do you see the guy on the stole over there?” he was pointed a drunk guy who sat by his own and was like, “He was an awful one when he’s drunk, always fight with everyone, and he is blonde. And that big guy over there by the pool table? He just lost his twin brother on a car accident recently, and he is also blonde. What about that guy with tattoos all over his body? He was just came out of prison for killing someone, and he is indeed has blonde hair too. That old guy on the corner? He just lost his wife who had battle against cancer for a very long time, and she is a natural born blonde. And not to mention me, I am not just a bartender here but I also own this bar, and I am blonde inside out.” The bartender was tried to look cool by keep on pouring a drink to the guy, then he was like, ”So, do you still want to tell us your joke?”
The guy was like quite for a moment, thinking, then he was like, “Nah, not if I have to repeat it five times,” then he took off.
^_^
Sorry guys..I have nothing against blondes, as I said..this was strictly a joke!

I Must Be Doing Something Right

Last weekend, my friends and I went out for a dinner with one of our old mates who we haven’t seen for quite sometime as she has just getting married and having a baby, so of course, she was kind of having a different life style from she was used to when she was single. After the baby a little bit big, she called us out of sudden and asked us to go out for a girls night out like we were always do before. She was like bored with her daily routine with kid and house every day and needs to freshen up. As a good friend, of course, we said okay. Then yeah, so we went out for a dinner and a few drinks after, NO…not that drink! She was still breast feeding, remember? Duh!During the dinner, we were like catching up with everyone’s life as we haven’t seen each other for at least a couple of years. Then, I don’t even remember where was it came from, but my old mate told us that she was actually about very closed to called off the wedding as she found out from another friend who about to see her man kissing a girl in a club one night when she was like four or five months pregnant. We were like, what? Here is the thing, when she came to our workplace to delivered the wedding invitations last year, then introduced us to her future man at that time, we were like envy her for having such a wonderful guy. He looked so well manner, decent, good looking, young but loaded, and to be honest with you, too good for her. We thought that she was the lucky one in that relationship, but turned out we were absolutely wrong.
What happened above was kind of made us having a flashback about our own love life, well…at least for me and my friend. While everyone out there was like struggle to maintain their love ones to be faithful to them, here we are, having such a very trustworthy guys who provide us with all of those privileges that we can’t even name them one by one as it’s going to take a very long list, but still complaining about how boring our love life is. Such ungrateful girls, that what we are. And yeah, we do now realized how lucky we were as a person. How God must love us very much for letting us getaway with all of those attitudes that we gave to our men lately. Then my dear friend was like, do we deserve the love that our men give us? Considering how bored we were with them and with our life? OMG…are we that bad? But then, for some reasons, I was kind of remember the lyrics of one of those Boys Band song calls ‘Something Right’. Yeah, it doesn’t matter how bad we are as a girl, how deceitful we are as a lover, how boring we are as a human being, but if there is a guy somewhere out there willing to dedicate his love and his life only for us without any doubt, then of course, we must be doing something right. Don’t you think so?
I know I don't deserve the love you give me but now I understand, 'cause..
If you want me, I must be doing something right
I’ve got nothing left to prove, and it’s all because of you
So if you want me, and baby I make you feel alive
I know I must be doing…doing something right
(Something Right - Westlife

Reality Bites

A guy that I’ve just knew recently asked me one time whether if I am a materialistic type of person or not. Seriously guys, how do you answer that question? It’s not a tough question at all, for sure. And I knew the answer back then at the time that he asked me, oh yeah I did. But as I just met him, and of course, wanted to make a good impression, I will not willingly admitted it to him that I am in fact a materialistic type of person. Hey, I am a normal girl at some points, you know? Hah!
So yeah, at that time I was tried to avoided the question by asking him how do you tell someone whether you are a materialistic person or not. And he was like, if you love things and it’s all about the money, and all of those things that you can buy with it, so that means that you are. I was like, wait a minute here…of course I love things and money, well...who doesn’t? Does that make me a materialistic?
This thing kind of remind me of my conversation with my dear friend who had to deal with the situation where the girl that he loves chose to be with other guy not because of she doesn’t love him, but more like because of what the other guy could provide her which he couldn’t. He was like, if she really loves me like what she always said, why can’t she just hold my hand and face everything up together with me? I was like, yeah right…welcome to the real world, brother! Guess his momma failed to tell him about how does the reality look lie and it's not perfect all the time. I am so sorry my friend, but we are talking about the fact here. I also remember when a friend of mine who has a hunk husband with a very good financial track record, once had been approached by a guy who is not so bad but way bellow her hubby in every aspect. One night when the guy showed up with a BMW Z4 that belongs to his boss, my friend was like, supposed this car is yours then of course I will be yours too. I knew that she said that as a joke at that time, but knowing her…yeah, it could be the truth though.
So guys, the right question is actually not whether you are a materialistic type of person or not but whether you do it for a right reason or not. Oh no, am not trying to justify myself here, because I don’t think that I need to. Many girls are with me, indeed. I mean, come on…if there are two guys approaching you at the same time, one is a hunk with no money and the other one is a not so bad looking guy but loaded, who are you going to pick? Exactly, you might adore the first guy but you are going to chose the second guy…for sure! The thing is, love can not put food on the table, love can not pay your tuition nor your bills, not to mention those extra spending that you do all the time. And yeah, surely our loves don’t cost a thing…but that doesn’t mean that we will always put love on the top of everything…get real! Well, maybe some of us who are plain naive will, but most of us won’t. So yeah, of course we love you, guys…but guess what? Reality does bite…big time. Ouch! So much for your living in love happily ever after thing!

Runaway (A Poem)

I tried to tell you that I’m not happy
I tried to tell you that I’m lonely
I tried to tell you that I’m hungry
The day before I runaway..

I told you that I’m leaving
I told you that I’m not joking
I told you that I’m seriously in pain
The day before I runaway..

I tried to warned you about this day
I tried to give you some times to realize
I tried to even show you some tears
The day before I runaway..

I called you when I’m in my low point
I screamed your name asking for some hands
I looked for you when I need a shoulder to cry on
The day before I runaway..

I tried to tell you that I’m not okay
I tried to tell you that I need you by my side
I tried to tell you that I want you to ease my sadness
The day before I runaway..

I told you that the day is coming
I told you that I will make my way out of this thing
I told you that will consider me above everything
The day before I runaway..
^_^

Really guys, before you say something..if you don't know what am talking about, then please..don't jump in to any conclusion just yet..?

Choco Jetons Beurre Cookie

Lorsque vos lèvres toucher mine
Et votre baiser souffle mon esprit
Il se sent comme ayant un choco jetons beurre cookie
Dans l'après midi avec une tasse de thé anglais
Hum...vraiment-vraiment miiiaam!

Ce n'est pour rien que ce soit, tout simplement la première chose qui est venu à mon esprit en me réveillant ce matin...

9/11

For most of people in the whole wide world, September 11th means something devastated as that date reminds us of a humongous tragedy that change almost every aspect of our life. That the date when America been attacked by some groups so called terrorists, whoever they are. But for me, that date simply just the date when I have to make a phone call to my mom as it is actually her birthday date. So yeah, while people in the States grieving by losing their love ones, my family having a celebration, isn’t it contradictory? That is why even if this blog’s title is 9/11, I am not going to talk about that tragedy here. I think we have enough people discussed about that already and I am not capable to talk about it. This blog is simply about a birthday wishes from a daughter to her mother. From me to my mom.
As I said before, my mom is the coolest mother in the world and I am not lie about this. Even on her elderly world she is still an active woman and I don’t think there is anything in the world slowing her down, that is why she is my hero. Yeah, she is my inspiration. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t want to be the exact same woman with my mom because we are totally different individuals. I am a laid back person who never running out of time. In the other hand, my mom is a busy woman who always running out of time. I still remember when we were kids, we had three nannies, one for each. Oh no, not because of we were rich, because we didn’t, but mostly because of my mom was very busy so that she could not watched us every day.
When I was a teenager I never felt close with my mom, I guess because of we never spent time together. I still remember when I was four years old, I felt down of my bed and my nanny went to my mom’s office to told her. But because she was in the middle of a meeting, she sent my nanny back home and convinced her that I was okay. My nanny, who adored me too much, couldn’t take it. She kept on saying how my mom does not love me, how it would be a different case if it happened to my sister, and yeah, I over heard that then started to cry and never stop for a very long time that made me run out of energy and collapsed. Hey, come on…what else could a four years old girl do in this situation? I had to stay in a hospital for a week because of that and when I was in hospital, I never even want my mom by my side. At all. I only wanted my nanny. And of course, it was broke my mom’s heart so badly, I knew that for sure.
So maybe, subconsciously I still have this memory at the back of my head that makes me find it is so difficult to feel close with my mom. But as a daughter, I do proud of her and all of her achievement these whole times and I do want her to know that. I also want her to be proud of me too, even though based on her standard it is going to be a very difficult things to get. Since I am a kind of girl who never shows my feeling to anyone, it is hard for me just to tell her that now that am fully grown up, I do understand completely that at that time she was forced to made the decision that she’d probably regretted, and that now I am okay with that, and I don’t blame her for that, and that I love her, and much more things. So, here it is;
Dear mom,
Today is your birthday and I have nothing to give you as a present but my love and my pray. I want you to know that I love you and I adore you. You are my ultimate superhero and I am proud of you, proud to be your daughter. I wish I could tell you all of these face to face but I couldn’t as you know that I am not good in oral. I am a daughter who looks up to you as a mother, a wife, a teacher, a motivator, a mentor, a best friend, a shrink, a financial adviser, a cook, and God knows what else.
Dear mom,
Today is your birthday and I want you to know that you are always be in my pray, my breath, my foot step, my thoughts, my blood, my everything. You are my role model even if I don’t want to be you because I am who I am and you are who you are. As George Bernard Shaw said that “Life is not about finding yourself but it’s about creating yourself”, so I thank you for making me created who I am now but the most important thing is I thank you for all the things that am not. I’ve learnt so many from you and so that I love you. I wish I could love my children someday just like how you love us, unconditionally. Happy birthday from a distance and hope to see you in this holiday coming.
Love,
Your daughter
