God’s Gift To Mankind Is The Internet

it seems i am quite the failure when it comes to technology. the other day my brother was checking out some online forums on his iPhone, and i looked over and said how i wished i had an iPhone so i could go online whenever and wherever i want.

and he said, ‘your phone also can wat, stupid!’


my former phone that i never knew could be used to access the internet. sigh.

please lah -_- i was all like, ‘if my phone could go online, do you think i would not know???’

apparently it can. wtf. and all it took was a visit to one of those Maxis shops. actually it was quite funny… i went to the Maxis shop at Pavilion, thrust my phone into the hands of the guy working there and asked him, ‘my phone cannot go online right??’.

and then he said to me … ‘why girls don’t like to read manual when they buy phones wan ah?’ -___-

then he tinkered with my phone for like 30 SECONDS and suddenly Google popped up on the screen o_O

shit???? where has this service been all my life???

needless to say, i’m using my phone ALL THE TIME whenever i’m out now. i just can’t… stop… going online!!! yes yes i know it’s very rude to be checking my email in the midst of dinner and stuff but i cant help it :( it’s just too easy to slip my phone out of my bag, press a few keys and start checking my email or check my favourite blog haunts for updates. sigh. summore my new phone so nice..

things i have been doing with my newfound love for this thing called 3G Internet!

1. FACEBOOKING
you know what I love most about Facebook Mobile – i get to update my Facebook status wherever and whenever I want, AND people can see the update and text me (or wall me!) their responses instantly. hehehe like yesterday when i was in the bus on the way to Singapore, i changed my Facebook status to Su Ann Lim needs love and ice cream.

hehehe and then i got all these texts and walls giving me love and promising ice cream dates. dont bluff me ah you all, i collect wan you know. oh and Lainie and Tze, don’t be lazy. faster go do your work!!!

another thing that’s great about having Facebook on your mobile phone is that you get to check out profiles of people immediately. hehehe. like last week, Adrian was showing us the profile of this girl he likes. needless to say, we were all very sampat about it, crowding around the phone and giving all our critique and opinions. haha no lah Adrian she’s very pretty. don’t be emo okay :P i went and poked her summore… hehehe.

2. CHECKING IMDB MOVIE RATINGS
this is totally NIFTY :D when checking out movies at the cinema, there are times when i’ve not heard of some shows being screened - i have no idea what these movies are about, and the posters don’t tell much either. and then of course there are times where the movie trailer looks good, but something in your gut tells you the trailer is a deceiving veneer for a movie that will surely suck :\

enter IMDB, the best ever movie database in the universe!!! for those who’ve never heard of IMDB, it’s a site that gives you every single bit of information about any movie you wish to look up. i am so addicted to it that i IMDB every single movie i watch upon returning home :|

now that i can go online with my phone, what i do is just IMDB the different movies right there at the cinema before i buy my tickets. instant checking of movie rating and cast! w00t. one gem uncovered was Definitely Maybe, which i wasn’t sure would be good, but a quick check on IMDB showed a solid rating of 7.5. well, Aira and i loved the movie to bits :) it was so sincere, feel-good and touching; definitely one to watch with the girls or with the significant other.

(in other movie-related news, i just watched The Other Boleyn Girl. ah so fantastic :) starring two of my all-time favourites Natalie Portman and Eric Bana, and Scarlett Johansson who is Martian’s not-so-secret crush, we didnt need IMDB to convince us to watch THIS movie!)

3. CHECKING MY MAIL

my mail-checking is just bordering on obnoxious now :( i keep going, ‘wait ah… wait ah… let me reply mail first!’ right in the middle of conversations. *ashamed* i cant help it lahhhhh i feel so compelled to read and reply because checking my email is just so..possible now :( and what with how quickly that lite version of gmail loads on phones. le sigh.

4. WIKIPEDIAING STUFF DURING CONVERSATIONS
HAHAHA want to impress people during conversations as if you knew what the heck they’re talking about?! i bet you do :P Wikipedia + 3G is your savior, teehee. anything from industry jargon to a classic book EVERYONE must have read in their lifetime, from the latest news to some pop culture reference.. a quick check on Wikipedia underneath the dinner table is all it takes :P Vincent took my phone to google ‘the invisible hand’ after i told a lightbulb joke yesterday. okok come i tell you the joke:

Q: How many economists does it take to change a lightbulb?
A: None; the Invisible Hand did it.

hehehehehehe damn funny right hahahahaha faster laugh

5. READING BLOGS
a godsend during long waits and traffic jams. here’s a blog i’ve been checking regularly for updates on my phone lately :

Teenage Lolita is a blog written by a Singaporean call girl / prostitute who is my age, and has been at her job since she was 15 or 16. it is an extremely personal and almost blase insight into the life of a teenage prostitute, and one of the best blogs i’ve ever come across. she speaks at length and yet ambiguously about the ins and outs of the men who hire her, the perks and hazards of her job, her derision at people who look down on prostitutes, and her love for money and expensive things. i could write a whole post about how amazing and touching and shocking her blog is, and maybe one day i will, but for now i’m just going to trawl her archives through my phone when i’m stuck yet again in that infamous Jalan Sultan Ismail traffic jam :) please read her blog, especially the older posts when she’d just just started her job. it’s a fantastic read.

6. YOUTUBE
it’s so very easy to share videos now - a quick search on youtube is all it takes to pass around the video of Achmed the Dead Terrorist. HEHEHE. i KEEL you!!! *eyebrows* cracks me up every single time, and i never hesitate to share this video to people who’ve never heard of Achmed.

speaking of videos, Episode 13 of Malaysian Dreamgirl is up! quite interesting, this one, with a special challenge issued by Kenny where the winner(s) got to take back a very coveted prize :) the girls were also featured on NTV7’s Breakfast Show, and they were paid a visit at the Dreamhouse by 4 yummy men. Jonathan Putra (aka JP) is all sorts of delicious :D

besides MDG, i also have been following Idol from Youtube on my phone, cos i never seem to be home at the right times to catch it on tv. ah David Archuleta was disappointing this week. i’m rooting for David Cook as always, and Jason Castro has a special place in my heart. i would die to have him serenade me on his guitar or even that ukulele, i really really would!

——

sigh i remember how when i was switching phones a couple of years ago, my brother was telling me to get a GPRS or a 3G phone. i was like ‘huh… no need all these things lah, so fancy for what!’ well, i really want to shoot myself now :( that’s a few years of internet-on-the-go that i’ve wasted and am never getting back.

eh i just thought of something! can i use MSN on my phone?

How Barisan National Cheats Their Way To Victory

i’m sure many people are already in the know of the many shrewd ways our government cheats and cons their way to a victory, but i just thought i’d compile a list for the benefit of those who aren’t aware of the foul play and deception that goes on during the elections :)

yes yes i’m biting my lip as i write this post, trying not to SCREAM at the unfairness of it all. it is for good reason that activists and the Human Rights Watch say that this will be Malaysia’s ‘dirtiest election ever’.

so! how our elections are rigged to unfairly benefit the government:

1. GERRYMANDERING

in our last election in 2004, Barisan Nasional won only 60% of the total votes cast, but had a whopping 91% representation in Parliament. that’s 198 out of 219 Parliamentary seats, with only 21 seats going to the Opposition despite them having an extremely significant 40% of the popular vote. heck, that’s almost half of the total votes given to the Opposition, but somehow in some weird way that only garners 9% of the seats in parliament.

so how is this done? the Elections Commission (EC) manipulates the borders of each constituency. let me make this elementary - say you have Taman A that is traditionally a BN stronghold. Taman B next to it may potentially fall to the Opposition because during the last election, the victory margin was very very small. you’re scared of losing Taman B, so what do you do?

you take voters from Taman A, and tell them they are now part of Taman B and have to vote there now. basically you’re spreading your surplus over to your weak side. in the end? Barisan Nasional has strong wins for both Taman A and Taman B. sweet.

and of course, they lump all the strong Opposition constituencies together to make sure the Opposition has less seats. in the eyes of the government, 1 Lim Kit Siang in Parliament is better than 5; so if the EC can help it, and of course they can, they gerrymander opposition strongholds as well. ah. it used to be in the constitution that the total voters of each constituency cannot differ by more than 15%. well surprise surprise, this has since been abolished :) wonder why.

here’s an example of gerrymandering. in 2004 elections, the Jerai constituency in Kedah had 21,600 new voters shifted in from neighboring constituencies. the result? BN won by a 10,000 margin - a victory they would not have had without gerrymandering - and that racist, sexist Badruddin got to retain his Jerai seat in Parliament. btw this is the douchebag who single-handedly immortalized the statement, “this is a Malay country; if you don’t like it, get out!”.

2. BUYING OUT OPPONENTS

if you’ve been reading the newspapers during the week of nomination, you would have read all the happy stories of how Barisan Nasional has won several state and parliamentary seats ‘uncontested’. my brother went, ‘wahhh! Opposition scared to fight BN ah!’

at first i didn’t understand what that meant; why would the Opposition allow seats to go uncontested? just throw in somebody to make sure people like Azalina ‘i am watching you’ Othman don’t win their seats uncontested again, right!!!

but then i came across this story. what it reports is that two PKR candidates have come forward to say they have been propositioned with money to withdraw from the elections.

“”They have been chasing me since nomination day. At first, they went around my kampung seeking the would-be candidate, proposer and seconder. Now they go one step further - offering me RM300,000 cash to withdraw,” Idil said over breakfast near PKR headquarters in Matang, Kuching. … “I have been telling them RM300,000 is too little … not enough to go around, and jokingly said they should offer me RM3 million. They took it seriously and said they would discuss the matter with their superiors,” Idil quipped.
(Source: Malaysiakini.com)

yeah now you know what happens when Barisan Nasional wins seats ‘uncontested’. this is where all your hard-earned tax money goes to - buying out opponents so that a corrupt government can stay in power.

3. BRIBING VOTERS

so these people go around to poor rural villages, and give people money to ensure they vote for BN. i hear rumours like this all the time, but i’ve never actually heard of an actual case where someone reported this bribery. but the other day Kezanne just told me that her schoolmate’s family back in Perlis has been offered RM 1,000 to vote government. they are poor and RM 1,000 is a lot of money to them. Kezanne’s schoolmate is a JPA scholar; more reason to feel compelled to vote government.

4. PHANTOM VOTERS

this means unidentified voters contributing votes to the elections. a big accusation of phantom voting was when PKR stopped two buses of what were allegedly BN phantom voters in the recent Ijok by-election, which BN won.

there have been evidence of dead people (or really young children) registered on the electoral rolls for numerous elections and by-elections.

and there are people who find themselves miraculously registered at two different constituencies (there was a KL-based woman who reported this to Malaysiakini; i cant find the report now. anyone have the URL?).

and then there are voters registered to an address where they do not live. read this to see how Teratai state seat candidate Jenice Lee found 26 voters registered at her house. those people have never even lived there nor does she know who they are. the EC has dismissed her report as ‘a small matter’.

and then there are voters registered to abandoned sites. read this, a report of 500 voters registered to an abandoned army camp in Penang. ooooh Penang ;) looks like a certain coalition feels threatened!

5. CONTROLLING THE MEDIA

just about every newspaper, tv station and radio station you can think of is owned by the government and its comprising political parties. The Star, Sin Chew and China Press are owned by MCA. The New Straits Times, The Malay Mail, NTV7, 8TV, TV3, Hot FM, Fly FM and all other Media Prima subsidiaries are UMNO-owned. RTM 1 and RTM 2 are state-owned.

this means that everything you read in the newspapers and watch on TV is government propaganda. any voice of the opposition is totally blacked out. not only do they not give the opposition a voice, they also trump up all the Opposition’s flaws. simply because they can. simply because you and i and everyone else keep buying their papers and keep tuning into channels.

i have a friend who works with one of the Media Prima TV stations. so far they’ve been allowed to give the Opposition candidates a liiiiiittle bit of airtime every now and then… but yesterday a memo was released saying that no more coverage is to be given to the Opposition AT ALL. how nice eh :) like the indelible ink, this is another pushing of the panic button by BN.

when i was young (and always encouraged by my school and my government), i read the papers quite diligently. at the time, it was always beyond me how anyone would ever vote Opposition, when our Barisan Nasional was such a gleaming, glorious, corruption-free, caring alliance who sincerely wanted our country to prosper!!!!! Barisan Nasional had UMNO, MCA and MIC… that means they’re taking care of all the races!!! so why would ANYBODY vote DAP who only cares about the Chinese, or PAS, this kolot party who comes up with all sorts of archaic rules like boy-girl separation and condones such radical Islamization!!!

and if i had a huge problem i needed help with? i would go to Michael Chong of MCA right away, obviously. because he’s always helping people some way or other. rape cases, money woes, the handicapped, snatch theft… Michael Chong is always there to save the day. MCA truly cares. the newspapers never directly say it, but it’s all i ever freaking read about. the Opposition were mudslingers and liars in comparison.

but now that i’m older and i know more stuff and i have the internet at my fingertips… the one question i have is, how do these reporters sleep at night, knowing that they are contributing to this cruel and tyrannical blacking out of knowledge and information among Malaysians both young and old?

6. HOLDING PEOPLE AT RANSOM

when people like UMNO’s Azalina Othman tell bloggers that they are ‘being watched’, and people like MCA’s Chew Mei Fun tell people to vote for BN otherwise ‘May 13 will happen again’, and people like Hishamuddin wave the keris at non-Malays, how can you not feel like you are being threatened in a country that is supposed to be your own? (Mell, this is why i don’t agree with that BN ad on how people are allowed to be themselves here in Malaysia.)

i know many bloggers who refrain from putting the slightest iota of politics in their blogs because they’re afraid of being ISAed or Sedition Acted.

i know many people who vote government because they’re afraid the votes can somehow be traced back to their identities and this may compromise their businesses or their jobs or even their LIVES.

i know many JPA and BNM scholars who are practically muzzled when it comes to politics for fear of losing their scholarships.

i know many people who vote government because they’re afraid May 13 will happen again.

i’m very sad and angry that these things happen. we should NEVER EVER allow our government - an entity that is supposed to PROTECT us - to put us through this kind of fear.

7. HAVING THE ELECTIONS COMMISSION UNDER THEIR INFLUENCE

so the latest elections fracas is about the indelible ink that cost RM 2.4 million that will now no longer be used in the elections, because, oh!, the Elections Commission terdengar some desas-desus about how certain parties have evil plans to mark their opponents’ supporters’ fingers with ink even before they get to register.

Dear Elections Commission,

first of all, why dont you expose whatever evidence you have of these rumours, instead of keeping it to yourself, and allow the people of Malaysia to judge for themselves? we don’t even know if you’re making up these stories or if these featherweight stories warrant such a huge regression. don’t punish an entire nation for some silly rumours that you heard through the grapevine.

second of all, SHOW US all these jars of ink that you supposedly already imported from India for 2.4 million of OUR MONEY.

thirdly, if this rumoured evil plan of these certain parties can cause such a big reversal in decision, surely then there is a problem with your education of using indelible ink in the first place. you have not done your job of educating people well enough on the electoral process if they can be tricked into applying the ink before they even vote.

fourthly, instead of taking this totally moronic step of not using indelible ink when Bersih and other people who CARE have fought SO HARD to have this ink finally used in our elections, why don’t you go out there and teach people how to use indelible ink!!!! be pro-active and combat the problem, for goodness’ sake, instead of this knee-jerk reaction of removing the indelible ink altogether. if the rumour is true, surely the small number of unsuspectingly-painted people can be contained by the almighty EC, since you all have such a great track record of weeding out phantom voters by none other than the amazing Identity Card teamed with the equally amazing Electoral Roll -____-

i really didn’t think it was possible to think any lower of the EC, but whaddya know, we learn something new every day.

DAP’s Lim Guan Eng put it quite nicely; “The Election Commission is working hand in hand with the Barisan Nasional to cheat in the elections.”

this is a very interesting interview with the current EC chairman Abdul Rashid, conducted 4 years ago :) read read.

—————–

a good government thinks for its people, instead of stubbornly refusing to move from power. they think about what their people want and need, and concede, instead of doggedly taking measures to ensure that they will always remain in their corrupt rule, even though the people no longer want them.

so. yes. vote for change. you know how it goes :)

It’s So Mudah To Spend A Million Dollars On Loved Ones

what would you do with a million dollars?

i would spend it on my friends and family.

but because i’m so lazy, i’d buy all their stuff online and then get everything delivered right to their doorstep :P

i shamefully admit that i’ve never used eBay in my life and I don’t know how to :( but i do know how to use MUDAH.com.my because it’s damn easy!!! it’s like a Malaysian cyber marketplace where you can buy and sell stuff; very simple to use and extremely fuss-free. so forget hunting down people and beating traffic jams to get to the malls, MUDAH.com.my is where I’ll buy all my presents when I have a million dollars :P

behold my choice of gifts!!!

for Martian, a healthy salad shop (RM 48,000)! there is no bigger health food lover than my boyfriend. sigh. maybe if i bought him a whole salad shop, he would get sick of the health food and then we can go out and eat PROPER FOOD! like McDonalds.

for Sieutheng, a nice and vast Lot Getah (RM 135,000). You know why I know why!

for Aira, I’ll get you Draco Malfoy :D but you must share him with me!

for Ivan, another red MyVi 1.3M (RM37,000) that looks like yours, now that your younger brother has usurped your car :\

for Waimin, a Portable USB Drum Kit (RM 220) to hone that drumming talent again!

for Jovann, a wealth and protection-giving Celestial Frog!!!!!! hahahahahaha only because you already have everything and i don’t know what to give you! may the Celestial Frog give you long life and thicker angpaus this CNY :P

for all of us at 5Science1, another Bukit Jalil Bungalow (RM 2million) for us to party in now that Freddy has left for the US :( yalar yalar i know this exceeds my RM 1 million budget, but it’s a NECESSARY purchase! we all NEED this!

for my dad, a brand new Sony PSP (RM 520) cos i know you secretly want one but don’t dare to buy cos you scared ppl laugh at you

for my mum and Martian’s mum, a Mahjong and Gin Rummy Travel Set (RM 68). hahaha cos they’re both such mahjong kakis

for Martian’s dad, a Kingston 1gig USB Pen Drive! (RM 33) because he said he needed one the other day, and no person of the 21st century should live without a pendrive!

for Tall Brother, a 12-in-1 pack of tissue paper cos you use sooooooo much tissue

for Short Brother, E-Tuition for Form 3 Students! go and STUDY LAH YOU pmr this year -___-

for Timtam, actually I wanted to buy you a bass guitar but Mudah.com.my didn’t have one for sale :( so allow me to buy you a boat (RM 15,000). now you can come back to KL whenever you want

for Azlan, i’ll buy you a new Satria 1.8 GTi (RM 37,000). i know it’s not an R3, but i bet the light on this one doesn’t make buzzy sounds. hehehehe.

for KY, a Nintendo Wii (RM 1,200) so you and Kimberly can play tennis until kingdom come

for Val, a Curling Iron (RM 30) so you can have curls or straight hair whenever you feel like it!

for George, a whole Recording Studio so you and your boys can jam and cut albums all day all night for totally free!

for Kiasu Andrew, Tze Ching and Hishy, an entire Carton of Milo (RM 35)!!! cos every Malaysian abroad misses their Milo Ais.

and for Datuk Seri Dr Chua Soi Lek, a Mini Spy-Camera Detector!!! it blinks when there are recording devices around, so you will never be caught with your pants down again :P for only RM88!

MUDAH.com.my is seriously so freaking easy to use - i am very satisfied with my million dollar browsing! i may even consider selling some of my dresses and bags there one day. but for now, let’s all just wait for my RM 1 million to be earned so that I can buy everyone gifts :)

p/s: if anyone has cute mugs, vintage clothes or books in good condition, do put them up on Mudah.com.my!! i’m looking for stuff like that. am also looking for quirky decor items for my room at Martian’s. so go go go! do put up some of your stuff for sale, then let me know :)

People

i feel like dying today.

but i am very, very grateful for all the people in my life who keep me going, keep me smiling, keep me encouraged. i seriously have some of the most amazing people in my life - be it my best friends, my family, my boyfriend, acquaintances, people whom i dont know who email me and leave me comments, or schoolmates. they do all these big things and little things for me, whether consciously or otherwise, and i dont know what i did to deserve them. i really cant think of a single right thing that i’ve done to be worthy of their kindness, their love, their time and their belief in me.

so i want to dedicate this post to these amazing people in my life :) dont be angry at me if your name is not in here, ok? it doesnt mean i dont appreciate what you’ve done for me, it just means i have such a crappy state of mind when i’m functioning on almost 36 hours without sleep. that and i still feel like dying.
