In conjunction with the 49th Malaysia Independence Day, aka Merdeka Day for Malaysia, which falls on 31st August, all Malaysian should raise the flag, our National Flag, Jalur Gemilang in the name of patriotism.

For once, I was wondering what is the hype for raising the flag anyway? A simple googling found me the latest entry on the issue. You can find the links below. Last time, we Malaysian used to enjoy raising the flag. Decorating the entire of their cars for example with full of mini Jalur Gemilang. And some even go the distance like making the largest cake in the shape of Jalur Gemilang as well.

How well do we, Malaysian understand the flag. Our own Jalur Gemilang. Fairly, most of us find it that to decorate the building, office premises or even homes with Jalur Gemilang as part of the needs. Not the real show of appreciation and loving for the country from the bottom of the heart. Go read the history and some fact about our Jalur Gemilang here.

I recalled that when the media urge us all to raise the mini Jalur Gemilang on their car, my friends and I joked that whenever the law enforcers saw the mini flag on the car roof, they’ll just “tutup mata sebelah” even if we are speeding or breaking the traffic laws. It’s mean, I know to joke about the Jalur Gemilang.

As the matter of fact, I was once a prefect in my primary school whom designated to raise the Jalur Gemilang on the Monday morning assembly for 3 straight years. Every day I had raise the flag in the morning and take it down before school ends. It was a demanding job and sometimes, the flag has to be raised half accordingly to the nation’s affair like the death of certain royalty or etc.

When I was raising the Flag, I always firm believer that the flag should never touch the land. Why? it’s symbolise that the country and the Flag should always standing tall. Raised. We should never step on it or even discard them anywhere just like the post-Merdeka Day celebration. It ached my heart to see the flag, even the mini Flag being treated like junk along the roadside. It shows that we still in the 3rd world mentality. Yes. That’s why I never mess with the Jalur Gemilang for once.

Some blardy idiot raised the flag for all year long and left it to the cruelty of the harsh weather. Finally, the flag were worn out over time. Is that the way to treat your national flag? Probably that’s why you will never see me messing around with mini flag.

In response to my taikor Wingz siew, I do agree that life never find us in peace. Once a while, they’ll come in with some challenges and obstacles. Guess that’s part of life. A very typical life. Because we are just mortals.

If people like us want some peace, you can always find a place that is very peaceful. Go and find a place with the 3 initials. R.I.P. (Rest In Peace) That time, these people won’t have any problems nor issues. No obstacles and challenges. No such thing called busy or hectic. Everyday just sleep. Or lay there dead? At least today my schedule are damn packed. That’s because my customer always want me to do miracle for them. Everytime say urgent and last minute. Critical issue to be attended to and so on, so forth.

When I read Wingz mia blog, I understand that I’m very appreciate that I’m also going the similar obstacles like you and me. We are just a simple man eh? Truly agree. Just like what I told Hallajs the other night. In fact, it was yesterday night that I suggested to him that I should be looking for a girl from Penang. Make it part of the criterias for my girlfriend. And when it comes to the reason for getting a Penangites girlfriend, that because I will eventually have a reason why I need to go back to Penang often. Simple as it can be, I can go back there and have Penang Char Kueh Teow and Penang Laksa.

Movies, movies and movies. Little did I know that nowadays GSC do offer real-time purchase of tickets. Not booking but purchase. Of course they’ll have to charge you via credit card and additional RM3 for this kind of service. Unless you capable to have runner like Titoki. Of course people like me, I’m relying on this surperb service. What’s it there for a RM3 since the service provided is damn good. The bad things are they currently supporting only 2 cinemas. The GSC in 1 Utama and GSC Mid Valley. Please refer to the link here for additional information.
Dragon Tiger Gate anyone?

I was a shy guy. Even now also I still am shy towards opposite sex. I can’t sleep now as my mind wanders back. Fast back to 1997/98.

Back then, Galleria still operates. Somehow, back then I had phone calls. From someone unknown. It come to intndice themselves as Lu Yee, Chai Xia and Yen Ling. How they gotten my phone numbers to this day I still have no idea. We have several good conversation and I did buy them pizza with Tony, Judy and Foo Wah alongside.

They were among some of the opposite sex I came to know off besides the infamous Li Chia and the rest from neighbouring school, the APGS. I always remember that I played a song from Eric Moo back then to her, Lu Yee. The reason I did that way because I bought Eric’s cd and keep listening to it back then.

yeah, I still recalled how silly am I to write my PMR target to Lu Yee back then. I was aiming to score straight A’s but somehow rely on the tips that got me screwed for the first day. In fact, things were ok with them at first. Just being friends and you know….

It was ended up badly when Lu Yee gave me a present. It was a bottle of stars. Handmade paper stars. Those you flip and flip to get the shape? It was a hidden message from her. According to Chai Xia, I need to find the odd star inside the bottle and from there I can find Lu Yee’s message. When I found out the odd star, I unfold it and saw a couple of words. It stated ‘I don’t want to be friend with you anymore’.

From that moment onwards, I never hear from them anymore.

p/s : I still have Yen Ling on msn. Just not the other two. I still hope to find out what happened back then that makes Lu Yee wrote such thing. Need to resolve that.
