Of Hong Kong and the Hair


So this is the VERY famous Buddha statue on Lantau Island, Hong Kong. Lantau Island is called 大嶼山 in Cantonese. The name is always mentioned in Hong Kong soaps. The aunties always say that they are going to 大嶼山 to 拜佛吃斋, now doesn't that sound familiar? Apparently, the Buddha was placed there to stop the typhoons from attacking Hong Kong. Note His hand.


And tadaa....

The picture of my hair at last. It doesn't usually look like this actually, I usually have it waxed. The wind kinda messed it up because I didn't have hair spray on. But still, this is how I look like with short hair now.

And note the tiny Buddha statue in the background. :)

And, because it takes a hundred years to load a photo with the internet connection in Alor Star, I've only managed two. :(

The Art of Shutting Up

Argh! I'm so frustrated. Why doesn't anyone listen to what I say? Or maybe I'm too strong in wanting others to follow my way. All I can do is shrug. And also, I've learned that there's no use in arguing, or even to reason. Most of the time, the best way is to just shut up.

The Movie

I went to watch 2012 last night. I was supposed to watch the 6.15pm one, but when I arrived there, it's already 6.25, so I decided to buy tickets for the 9.15pm one. There are three halls showing the same movie and the same time, yet all the tickets were sold out! Now that is shocking! This is Alor Star and it was a MONDAY night. 0.0 So me and my friend decided to wait for the reserved tickets to be released. We stood there from 8.15 until 8.45 just to get two tickets. I was getting frustrated.

The movie was good, in fact, it was really good. It made me want to cry throughout the movie. It wasn't the effects that attracted me, nor was it the plot of the movie. It was the fact that our Earth is going to undergo drastic changes, changes that will cause a massive wipeout of the human population. I'm not going to write too much about the movie, in case some of you still haven't watch it. All I have to say that the movie really serves as a reminder to all the humans on Earth that we're destroying the planet! We're like torching our own house! It's so hard to get people to understand that our planet is getting more and more sick, and Mother Nature is really angry with us.

There was once I told a friend, we should really cut down on the usage of plastic bags. Unless you're going to reuse them, don't take plastic bags from the grocery stores! If you know you're going to throw them away, why take them? You're creating a piece of rubbish just for five seconds of convenience! OK, so this friend, I told him we should use less plastic bags, he replied "I'm just not that recycle kind of person" So when are we going to take responsibility?! When are people going to realize that just one small change in your daily life, you're doing the Earth a favor! And the most ironic thing is, we live on the Earth, yet we're destroying it!

Well, I think the wait for the tickets was really worth it. And I realize that my ability to express myself in writing is deteriorating. :(

Uh

Uh..Sorry for posting then deleting the previous post. It was too obscene, I realized.

Apart from that, I realized too that it actually hurts when somebody hates me. Wow.

Extraordinary Pantene Commercial

People, check out this piece of commercial in Youtube.




Anyway, it's super cool. But I think it deserves to be something better than a shampoo commercial.
