Things that makes you go "what the hell?" (Part 1)

I remembered when Michael Jackson was in Singapore for his Dangerous tour in 1992. My sister, Rossie, flew all the way there just for his concert. Man i envied her. I asked my mom "Maaaa... I wanna go too! Can? Can?". She said, "Don't worry, he's coming to Miri. When he comes then when we go ok?" Man, I believed her and stopped my temper trantrum, but soon after I've forgotten all about it and she got away with it..=____="

Michael Jackson is dead. He died very near his final "This is it" concert in the midst of training and rehearsing with excited and keen dancers. It's like running a big race and just right before you reach the finish line, you tripped yourself because someone left a banana skin on the floor. He was a pioneer in breaking the barrier of racism among music artists and fans, not because he was once black and then white, but because he dared to stand where no one dared to in the past. When love songs covered the charts, he stood up singing songs like "man in the mirror" or "heal the world", or even "earth song".
I grew up with his songs like everyone did. I remembered when I watched "Moonwalker" and it was AWESOME. With Smooth Criminal..man oh man.. it was so gangsta!. But anyway... he held many concerts in many countries in his lifetime, even countries we never even heard of...............




**Michael Jackson LIVE in FRANCH**
What the hell?

Lets go to Franch and eat franch fries while looking at the aipool tower. The day after the death of MJ, you see pirated dvd/cd shops selling Michael Jackson stuffs MASSIVELY with a minor price hike. What the hell is this? Sure, I bought a couple of dvds (not 1, not 2, but THREE.. I'm ashamed of myself =.=) myself a few weeks back, and sure.. I would go through them whenever I spot them, but still it sucks to make money out of someone elses tragidies.

Why is it human nature that when someone dies then people start acknowledging the positive and good things of a person. It's kind of weird to see Michael Jackson's music back in the charts again just because he's dead. What the hell? But then, only certain people could really pull this off. You think if Vanilla Ice died, Ice Ice Baby is going to top the charts once more? I don't think so....

ICE ICE BAYBEH~

Unemployment

This is it. My very first post, and I've decided to talk about myself being unemployed o_o. It's really not that bad actually. Despite having the sense of uneasiness and guilt behind your head no matter where you go; as if you are a parasite and scum to the universe because you feel you contribute nothing to this world, it's not as bad as it seems @_@~~

<--- No I am not willing to be retrained with the stuffs that I have already learned. I'll bet the monkey would think the same too. I have a certain goal and ambition I want to pave my future with, but it seems like it's harder than I thought in my head in contrast to real life.

One of the obvious advantage of being temporarily unemployed is that you have loads of free time for yourself. You can do things that you always never find the time to do, like.. creating a new blog! Template editing/finding/creating is the hardest part. At the start, I would find myself going






"o'rightttt I'm gonna start a blog!$#^#$^$&%$"







After finding a decent template, I then would tweak it, change the banner picture, colors and whatever. And then after an hour or so......................






"wtf am I doing all these for .... =.=" **shuts down Firefox**


So YESSS, this is quite an achievement for me to post my first post. Hopefully my motivation will continue to menjayakan this blog rather than just making it another "one post wonder".

I know I'm not going to be unemployed forever. I might be working next month if everything goes smoothly with my plans. Even if it's something I'm looking forward to, it's something i'm dreading too. But it's leaning more towards being excited than dreading. Will update y'all when the time really comes, and I have something confirmed. Till then... I still see myself as a parasite to the human race.

Other advantages of being useless unemployed are:
  • when friends ask you what time can you go out; by default you can say "anytime~"
  • you can eat as much KFC spicy chicken without worrying having to use the office toilet the next day
  • take up a hobby you've always wanted (Eg. painting?) =.=
  • go on a holiday or a trip (like me... in Kuching "guiltily" leeching off someone else..GAHH..hehe)
Overall, I have to savour this moment while I can, because I know it's not going to last for long. I don't want it to last LOL. No matter how I put it, whether it's
  • I'm taking my time to evaluate my offers
  • I am choosing my work experience carefully
  • I'm just seeing my options
  • It's just not going to cut it for me
It all boils down to one pathetic truth, I am joblessss. @_@"
