第七十章:让我一次过爆炸

No. Once again let me inform that YU HAN'S BLOG ISN'T DEAD. The reason it wasn't updated right after PMR was because my internet couldn't connect properly. Now the damn connection is refreshed, everything is serviced. Somehow I know it's kinda late to say this, but still allow me to carry out the ceremony.



GOOD BYE Penilaian Menengah Rendah

MARILAH KITA BAKAR BUKU SEMUA!!!!


Point No.1 has been pointed out, now let me continue on. LIFE AFTER PMR IS... amusing. Last Friday was crazy. Shi Ken destroyed to pieces of glass by giving a hard kick to that mini adidas ball that Jer Shyan brought. After school, we planned originally to have a feast at Domino's, but the afternoon session students dominated the shop. With force, we had to go to the Ipoh chicken rice shop. The feast had two occasions. One, as a nice farewell to our classmate, Qian Ying who will be transferring. I hear that it's kinda like home-schooling. Is that true? I doubt. The second purpose was to celebrate 3A4's last day together in class. (You see, our dumbass school authorities wouldn't open the class doors for us, we'll have to linger around the school. So sad...

Story number two. My worst Saturday ever.(Yesterday.) The gang planned to play football. I wanted to go. Mom did not know how to go. The solution was to fetch me to school and wait for my dear friend to come and fetch me. So I waited. I waited for quite a long time. Finally I thought that they were pulling my legs. Due to my impatience of waiting. I decided to explore the area myself. I took a 10 minutes walk to the bus stop, below the EPF building. I waited for 30 minutes. Fuck, not one bus that passed by was heading to Mid Valley, my plan was to find out which particular bus would be heading towards the Puchong bus station. (Around my house.) Again, I didn't want waste time, I took another long walk to the Taman Jaya LRT station, bought a ticket to KL central, I wanted to try my luck there because I know that there is a particular bus there. When I arrived. I looked and asked for information. I was told to wait in front of the KL monorail station. I ran there, fearing that the bus might have already left. Finally, hope came, I caught a glimpse of that bus. Rapid KL U60. Hopping on, I was ready to pay the bus driver his salary. But instead, he drove off, it was too late for me to pay. "Never mind I'll pay when he arrives the next station. Now here's the condition. The next stop was Pasar Seni. The back part of the bus was the only place where seats were situated. The middle part was empty, designed specially for the crippled. I stood at the front part. A few footsteps away from the driver seat. He drove so fast that I had to grab on to support, leaving me no time at all to pay. When we arrived Pasar Seni. Great, I could finally pay. I was "this" close to saying, "Minta maaf bang, tadi tak sempat nak bayarlah bang." He impolitely forced me, "Turun dik, kalau tak mau bayar turun." I bared with him, "Minta maaflah bang, tadi betul-betul tak sempat, sebab saya takut nanti jatuh ma..." "You mau bayar, you tunggu." Waited. "Sorry bang, takde duit kecil, duit besar boleh." (Take note, he had small notes in his hand where he could actually give me the change.)
"Apa la ni, saya tak peduli you pergi luar tukar." Now after thrice times of tolerance was made, I really could not hold myself anymore, but I only wanted to go home that moment, I got off the bus, looking for stalls nearby, I found one, and requested for exchange, the fucking hawker forced me to buy her stuff, I said NO, you give me the exchange, why should I buy your stuff? She said fine, no exchange, frustrated, I picked up a a packet of sliced fruit and asked the priced, I bought it, But I did not eat it, instead, I threw the packet at her face and said, "Next time I visit your stall, Im'ma kick throw some durians at you." (Hey lady, in case of you seeing this, you must be a uneducated low class jack ass MALAY.) Now comes the climax. I went back, the bus was gone. Let me skip through how I got back home. Allow me to share what my mother said.

"This is the society, you cannot be angry at them, you must bare with them, or else you'll only suffer when you come out and work in the society." Here's how I replied her. "MOM, WHEN THE SOCIETY GETS SICK, WHEN WRONG BECOMES RIGHT, YOU DON'T FOLLOW THE FLOW JUST BECAUSE YOU WANT TO GET AWAY FROM TROUBLE, INSTEAD YOU FIGHT IT, YOU FIGHT FOR JUSTICE AND DO WHAT IS RIGHT. SO WHAT IF I FIND MYSELF IN TROUBLE IN THE FUTURES SO WHAT? AT LEAST IN THE END, I DID THE RIGHT THING PRINCIPALLY AND THEY DID THE WRONG THING, WHAT I HAVE TO REGRET, IT'S ALWAYS WORTH IT TO GO THROUGH SOME TROUBLE, BEAT THAT MOM." "Fine, go ahead with your principles." She ended up speechless, speechless for me being stubborn or being determined. I have no interest in knowing.

PS: Rapid KL, the next time you look for a bus driver, please educate them, they all look like dogs, no they look like wild boars, THEY HAVE NO MANNERS.

天天 - 陶喆

太阳天或下雨天
人挤人的咖啡店
找一个能想你舒服的角落
看着情人肩靠肩
慢慢转开我视线
有个女孩让我好想念
我的心已经飞到这个城市的另一边
想看着你 爱上的脸
把心里的感情都对你说
那马路上天天都在塞
而每个人天天在忍耐
没有你日子很黑白
原来这样就是恋爱
我想要你在我身边
分享生命中的一切

我想要天天说 天天说
天天对你说我有多爱你
天天说 I Love You.

第六十九章:看不到的天空

最近都很少上来这儿写一写心情,不是不要写,只是上到来,整个人就变得空白,完全摸不着自己该用什么题材,想聊一聊假期,但除了和朋友参观书展之外,就没有什么值得提起的,想说说自己在假期里温习了什么,却完全提不起劲,今天,终于让我找到了一个灵感,但是感觉上,这灵感,很狭窄…

这几天,上网的时候,都在看一写新闻,政治,或是种族主义的课题,印象最深刻,肯定会使那大家都在关注的“回中国” 论理的新闻,而很容易预测的,黄明知自己也做了回应,我突然间问了自己:“马来西亚是不是我的家?在任何一个媒体上,常常都会听到,马来西亚,我的国家…什么的…但是,为什么还是会有许多华人,抢着为孩子申请新加坡的奖学金,好让他们能到那边发展,可以的话,还要到那里,申请做个永久性居民(PR),我就是其中之一(虽然深知自己有心而力不足)。如果,这是我的家,为什么我要离开?这个问题,我整整思考了三天,终于找到一个贴切的答案,这个答案,不只我说过,就连东姑阿都拉曼的孙子,自己也在一篇文章中发表了出来 : “Because I am not made to feel like this is my home.”

这看似有道理,却带着一点遗憾和悲伤的答案,是一个残酷的事实,不知道究竟是政府在逃避这事实,还是他们已经被蒙蔽了双眼。一次又一次的状况,让我觉得,这真的是一个回答得很贴切的答案。988电台在早前,有三位电台广播员,小马,秋月,和迦马,怀疑因为在节目上“早点说马”,讨论了一些比较敏感的政治课题,而被下令休假。抹杀自由言论的权利,抹杀人民可以更加了解国家课题的权利,抹杀每一个华人心目中的尊严,这就是状况(一)。连续发生了两次的问题,无知的校长,在周会上,对着学校里的华人子弟,叫我们会到中国去,政府却采取了什么行动?吊校换职,这是他们最理智的处罚?这是状况(二)。黄明志,因为粗俗的回应,搞得惊天动地,对付一个怀恨在心的校长,却低调办事,这是状况(三)。一个又一个的言论谋杀,这还是我的家吗?

这一些事情,我跟妈妈都发表了各自意见。她说她很担心,她说我只看一些极端的新闻,她深怕我会因为这样而歧视马来同胞,还说这样做只会害了我自己。她告诉我:“这些媒体的报道,其实只报上了一些极端的事实。很多时候,人民不知道政府其实在背后努力策划一些什么,资助一些什么人,因为媒体注重自己赚回多少钱,所以只卖一些让人看了很”堵懒”的新闻,无形中煽动了种族之间的情绪,这也是为什么,一个马来西亚,永远会成为人民眼中的笑话。尝试从一个理智政治家的角度看待这些国家大事,有时候,人民认为很简单就可以办到的事情,其实很困难,等有一天,你如果真的上了这个位子,你会发现,会有很多可恶的人,阻碍你去改变,你如果坚持想改变,你只会像阿都拉一样,自动下台。儿子,给政府多一点时间,给好的政治家和领导人多一些时间,给改革多一些时间,因为改变,绝对不是一朝一夕的,学习如何去看视整片天空。”

顾名思义,去看整片天空,那正是我看不到的天空。。。

Shadow of the day - Linkin Park

I close both locks below the window
I close both blinds and turn away
Sometimes solutions aren't so simple
Sometimes goodbye's the only way
And the sun will set for you
The sun will set for you
And the shadow of the day
Will embrace the world in grey
And the sun will set for you
In cards and flowers on your window
Your friends all plead for you to stay
Sometimes beginnings aren't so simple
Sometimes goodbye's the only way
And the sun will set for you
The sun will set for you
And the shadow of the day
Will embrace the world in grey
And the sun will set for you
And the shadow of the day
Will embrace the world in grey
And the sun will set for you
And the shadow of the day
Will embrace the world in grey
And the sun will set for you

第六十八章:最后一线希望

原来我从未意识到成长。最近申请了新加坡的奖学金,才慢慢发现自己,从过去的高傲,跌入了深谷。

我很享受自己小学的学习生涯。当时拥有的不只是光荣,家庭问题也没那么糟糕。那六年的时间,才叫快乐。回想起来,我从一年级开始发觉自己的潜能,因为一次大胆的尝试,参加了讲故事比赛,谁会想到,自己竟然得上了亚军。后来开始建立起了自信,每一年的比赛,
都开始由我的分,得奖也不例外,很少看到自己败落的一面,所以从未经历过失败的苦。小学一路走到了五年级,被选为校队选手,但因为经验不足,只获得了安慰奖,但自己已是心满意足,因为三位选手里,只有我获奖,然后本质也开始在自己没注意之下,开始有所变化。
我没有变得更谦虚,性格变得更高傲了。六年级的成绩也不赖,成为区域的代表,校内更适应了不少奖状,更被选为模范生的人选,这一年,也让我认识了有一个这样的环境可以念书- 换句话说,这一年是我第一次参加新加坡奖学金的考试。

毕业了以后,爸妈很努力为我报名就读公教中学,他们说,要在新加坡发展,唯一能依靠的本地中学,就是公教。我很天真地以为那是一个很轻易就能达成的目标,我自己清楚知道,要考上新加坡的学校,先要交出一张漂亮的成绩单,但自己却被高傲蒙蔽视线。我采取了第一步行动 – 参加演讲比赛。然后落败了。我参加了辩论,却因为无知和冲动,再加上自己微薄的实力,退出了。学校的考试成绩,一落千丈。他妈的,真得让我遇上了连环打击。随着步伐,我决定投入自己的学业,中二,总算让我遇到了少少的进步,我却蠢得没发现自己已经彻底忽略了课外活动的表现。无奈的过了两个月的年终假期,开学了,中三了,从经验吸取教训,虽然说没有做得很好,但自己的却尝试了低调办事,直到我再次报名新加坡奖学金的考试,我真地从七十二楼的光辉,跌入了十八层地狱。我只能用堕落感看着那一份表格上写着的字眼:”Outstanding achievements”, “Awards”. 我心想 “What the fuck do I have? 3 years of secondary school and I don’t have a fuckin certificate or achievement.” 

马虎的脚上了表格,鱼贯地走着,我从拥有一切,化为一无所有,亲情破灭,成绩衰落,此时此刻,我感觉自己输掉了全世界,什么都没有。但是有何奈?望着两手空空的掌心,我只能带着勉强的笑容,迈向明天,我真的办得到吗?不要告诉我相信自己就可以了,因为那不实际,因为鼓励只是一种假象。我还有第二个机会吗?不要告诉我机会永远存在,因为期望越高,你只会更加失望。拖着影子,我不能再质疑了,我只剩下一个月,那是我最后一线希望。

第六十七章:人都需要呐喊

First of all. No, this blog isn't dead. And yes, I've shut myself up for a long time for the TRIALS :D, which is all wasted because the TRIALS fucked me instead of me fucking the TRIALS. Interested in having a peek at my analysis? Here you have it:

                    BM: FUCKED                      

BI: TOTALLY FUCKED

BC: SURVIVED

SC: Shit.

MT: Fucked.

KH: Fucked.

SJ: 78. I'm fucking dissapointed.

GE: SURVIVED

I wish I could make a conclusion. But I can't go on. I feel like throwing up cause all I see is 'EPIC FAILURES."

Therefore, instead, I made another conclusion. Which is an inspiration gifted by racial news lately, the TRIALS, and my own thoughts - "WE ALL NEED TO SHOUT"

When the despicable spread propaganda's -"Cina balik cina" during a school assembly, we must start to realize that it has been 53 years of toleration. If this keeps up, the whole nation will take things for granted and 2020 is gonna be nothing but an unrealistic crap. We need to shout, AND DO WHAT'S BEST FOR EVERYONE FOR THE SAKE OF THE PROPAGANDA ( 1 MALAYSIA ). On the screens of transimissions, you bullshit about "Perpaduan." And then on the other side you do something else violating you bullshit, and then get back to square one and bullshit all over again. LOL?

When you start to feel stressed out because of hardcore life. You need to Shout out. Sick of the books? SHOUT. Sick of the notes? Shout. Sick of Sejarah? Shout. Because that's the only way to achieve zen at such periods of intensity.

DOES ANYONE GET WHAT I CRAPPED UP THERE? IF YES, LEAVE A COMMENT. GOOD LUCK DURING THE REAL PMR. TRIALS ARE MAKING ME DEPRESSED FOR THE TIMEBEING. T.T

第六十六章:残局

My schedules are packed while it is actually a fact that I'm fucking free. Yes, I've done a lot through out the weeks after my second examination. I've cleared many chapters in the sylllabus. I survived my report card nag. I registered for 4 trips after PMR. I've used my free time to think about the society. I've managed to bring my interest in music to a higher stage. I've tried to change my attitude at home by doing more work. I could make the list go on. If I were to stop doing tthe above activity. I'd be fucking free. Of course, my personality never permits me to be lazy. But as a result, I'm getting imbalanced. Or put it in a much simpler way, I'm not satisfied with life.I feel that I could make life a lot more fun. This stage isn't the max. There's more to than repeating the same routine everyday.

1) Clearing chapters and notes everyday. It's done by force. Yep, I force myself everyday just so I could achieve that goal. Of course I want 8a's. There's a price to pay. I have to drink coffee everyday to replenish strength and the energy to do that. Dude, sitting in front of piles of books everyday for more than 7 hours, it's insane. (7 hours = 4 hours in the evening + 3/2hours at night, you can imagine how I manage it everyday because I still have the time to facebook. =D) What can you conclude from that? - 残局 (Because it's tiring)

2) Doing housework and changing attitudes. I'm not complaining. It's my duty in the first place. Mom and Dad's days are numbered (Touchwood La) In exchange mom becomes less tired, dad reduces his sour face and nags. The price I pay is being unhappy BECAUSE THATS JUST NOT ME! Should I be myself or be the person they want me to be? I don't mind doing the work, I mind changing and revoloutioning myself. Well, no choice - 残局.

3) Observing the society. This makes me so imbalanced. I hate to see the facts but I just can't help myself from politics and education issues. If you observe my facebook posts, everything has something to do with Malaysia and how its progressing. Sometimes I just feel like Spraying the word "FUCK OFF" on the merdeka banners they put up in my school corridors. First I started to look into Hak Bumiputeras. Then, they show this amazing topic of abolishing UPSR and PMR. It get's better. Sinchew posts an interesting daily update of how Universities and students are doing in Malaysia. I don't need to elaborate much. Because its a - 残局.

I have no comments about life no more. 残局.

第六十五章:阿忠的布袋大团

这是一个真人真事,他给我们的教训,正当我们在为生活的不足埋怨连天,原来有一个快乐的人,也会换上忧郁症。我们的不快乐,那他又算是什么? 的确,没有人会有耐心阅读以下的文章,但如果你热爱生命,请用心读下去。

阿忠藝合團

阿忠藝合團團長兼主演-阿忠,本名陳漢忠,64年次,在布袋戲界應算是很年輕,本身既不是布袋戲家族出身,也沒有傲人的學歷,憑著一股對布袋戲的熱愛,小時候愛看戲,十三歲時認識了西螺新興閣掌中劇團鍾任壁先生,十六歲正式拜師成為鍾任壁先生正式關門弟子。阿忠在新興閣習藝長達十年之久,十年來,隨新興閣南征北討,並遠赴東歐等地交流演出,這段期間還經由師父引薦至師兄蔡武雄先生的文興閣劇團見習。因為阿忠一直認為,無法在廟口現場演出連續兩小時表演,根本不算會演布袋戲,在新興閣與文興閣長年累月的訓練之下,在阿忠當兵回來沒多久,經由師長的鼓勵成立了阿忠藝合團。
阿忠藝合團是由阿忠與妻子阿萍兩人共同打拚出的布袋戲新生團體。藝合團的最大特色就是-創造布袋戲的無限可能。

阿忠藝合團寓教娛樂

阿忠藝合團是由阿忠與妻子阿萍兩人共同打拚出的布袋戲新生團體。藝合團的最大特色就是-創造布袋戲的無限可能。
例如:自創的全新劇本(如921大地震的女巫戰地牛,千禧年的千禧蟲來了!)阿忠的布袋戲還會模仿阿吉仔唱歌,有時候也會模仿一下郭富城,甚至還會來一段超級明星臉,乍看之下,有人認為阿忠好像在搞噱頭,但是那是旁人淺浮的看法,阿忠有他自己一套的做戲概論,簡單一句:觀眾在哪裡?爾後阿忠做了一項空前的創舉,那就是把布袋戲表演帶到時下年輕人最流行的聚集場地-PUB。從暖場成為主秀,到電視主流媒體的注意,爾後受本土綜藝天王吳宗憲先生的邀約至台視綜藝旗艦節目演出,立刻引起友台的注意,最後阿忠在衛視中文台開闢了一個自己的節目-阿忠布袋戲,雖然內容以搞笑、時事為主,這或許也是推廣布袋戲的一個方法。理由只有一個,阿忠從小愛看布袋戲,後來跑去學演戲,現在要更認真的來做戲
自阿忠藝合團組團以來,短短幾年,演出、教學千餘場,更在2000年獲美國西來寺邀請赴美演出,於第一場演出受到洛杉磯數十個單位邀約演出,足跡遍及台灣同鄉會、美國學校、亞太博物館、華人賣場、好萊塢派對、聖地牙哥、教會,最難得的是洛杉磯市政府還特別頒發一張傑出獎章,還有美西北區台灣同鄉會頒給的傑出藝人獎牌。在台灣,阿忠每個禮拜一都與師兄鍾任霖至台北少年觀護所教導學生習藝。對於公益活動,渣翁藝合團也是不餘遺力,最近還受台灣人權協會聘請指導大專志工青年遠赴泰北將台灣文化布袋戲的歡樂帶給當地難民,由於次活動意義深遠,人權協會將在七月再度聘請阿忠藝合團繼續擔任指導第二屆的大專志工再度遠渡重洋,做國際社會文化服務活動。
論起阿忠的掌藝及口白,資深文化記者-紀慧玲小姐曾報導過,像阿忠這個年紀確有如此功夫的人,全台灣不出三十個;口白很有南部金光戲的氣口。阿忠的演出除了傳統的硬底子與金光戲的聲光效果,更加上生活化的劇情與幽默對白,深深打動觀眾的心。雖然阿忠的聽力因為學布袋戲而受損,成為殘障人士(已有殘障手冊)但他為布袋戲付出的心卻將永遠不損。阿忠依然經常告訴自己,「慢慢努力,努力就對了。」

PUB布袋戲

作自己的戲
也許是注定,小時候的阿忠就是追著布袋戲台跑的孩子,他說:「永遠記得第一次看到布袋戲的感覺,那時候整個人是怔住的,被尪仔所怔住、被戲臺怔住、被演師的技術怔住、口白怔住。」就這麼一見鍾情的愛上布袋戲。小學四年級,阿忠終於擁有了一個自己的尪仔,他整個晚上玩著尪仔不能成眠,一會兒空翻、一會兒旋轉,所有他在戲臺上看到的技巧,他都想在一夜之間學會、學好。而阿忠真的也從一個布袋戲的愛好者成為一個布袋戲的學習者,國二食後就以超低年齡的身份加入台大掌中戲社,開始學習布袋戲,之後又拜見俠戲大師鍾任壁為師,全心全力的投入布袋戲的迷人是界,阿忠跟著戲班跑,跟著師父、師兄(蔡武雄)走,見識到各式各樣的場面,磨練一手好記憶與口白。但是,他覺得不夠,在演出數場《三國演義》、《西遊記》等老戲後,他突然驚覺自己的聲音在哪裡?自己要做的戲是什麼?布袋戲的觀眾在哪裡?「阿忠藝合團」就是在對布袋戲環境質疑、對自我訂位質疑所產生的新興表演方式。阿忠想拋開包袱以自己的見解、自己的方式來講述屬於他的布袋戲故事、布袋戲表演,於是一齣齣創意十足的布袋戲創作作品於焉產生。會選擇在「女巫店」,是因為第一次在那個空間登台時,阿忠感受身為一個布袋戲演師前所未感受過的尊重,觀眾專心的看他的表演、整個舞台是屬於他自己的。在女巫店,他感受到他做的真正式表演、而不是廟會前的酬神活動、不是政府政令宣導的工具,所以他堅持日後在怎麼忙碌他都要來好好演,因為這裡的觀眾是專程來看布袋戲的。從女巫店最冷門的節目變成座無虛席的爆滿場,阿忠覺得這幾年的辛苦終於有了代價。他回憶起一開始到店理的時候,因為實在太冷門了,所以他的表演往往是暖場功能。比方說,今天有樂團要來表演,阿忠就先表演二十分鐘座暖場,還不能算當晚的主秀;而當他終於有機會成為晚上唯一的演出者時,好戲是有口碑的,就這樣一傳十、十傳百,阿忠另類的表演風格受到越來越多人注意,位子越坐越擠,甚至站著看、甚至擠不進店裡!

化痛苦為歡樂

阿忠的布袋戲除了戲精彩,中場休息時刻推出的廣告也是讓人拍案叫絕的表演,記搞笑且尖銳的廣告詞往往讓人放棄去洗手間,深怕錯過任何一個創意的表現。戲中間插廣告的概念,來自阿忠小時候看江湖賣藥郎的經驗、也來自AM常出現的荒腔走板的廣告;於是,阿忠嘗試運用尪仔來演廣告,來拍賣你想不到的產品。其中「米老鼠助聽器」更是從他自身出發的無奈產品—因為長期處於吵雜的環境下,阿忠的耳朵重聽了。當你聽到嘻嘻哈哈的助聽器口白,在想到他本身就是重聽殘障人士,任誰都會欷歔!

他看似多么的快乐,却没有人会想到,他为了对布袋戏的热诚,附上了痛苦的代价。只要你有脑子,一定看得出他是个创意又多元化的表演者,但往往,这一类型的人最疲倦,因为他要在短时间内,抓出一个漂亮的点子,来给观众带来更多的欢乐。为了众人的快乐,他日夜思索,再加上完美主义的性格,拼了命绞尽脑汁,为自己的表演添加更多元素,却没想到,因为睡眠不足,导致内分泌失调,患上了糖尿病,在半年内,从95公斤手下变成了65公斤,整整瘦了30公斤。事后,他开始放弃自己,二度患上了第二个病症 – 忧郁症。后来就有那么一天,他看着自己房间里的每一个布偶,突然抓回了自己的生命的起点:“这一些布袋都是死的,我给了他们多少的生命?让他们活了起来,在每一个眼里,成为大家嘻笑的原因。我为何要放弃自己?”患病后五年,他重出江湖,再次让阿忠布袋戏团,红遍全台湾,给每一个台湾人,传达快乐的气息。

我们热爱生命吗?他热爱到差点牺牲了自己灵魂,正当我们在为生命的不足哭泣,原来还有另外一个人在积极的奋斗。所谓“少年不识愁滋味,为赋新词强说愁。”我们埋怨了多少,珍惜了多少?我们这一代怎么了?我们做了什么?我们要的是什么?可悲啊!

第六十四章:捆绑我的周末

I hate Weekends. I prefer Weekdays.
Weekdays keep me occupied. Weekends suffocate me with boredom.

I prefer to be in school than I prefer to be at home.
I prefer to be busy than I prefer to be free.
I prefer to go out and take some fresh air than I prefer to stay at home with the internet.
I prefer freedom than I prefer limitations.
I prefer to go through trouble than I prefer to sit still.
I prefer to get caught by ISA than I prefer to watch the fall of my country.

I don't consider the above a poem. I consider it more as a statement. It's an inspiration I got after I started to notice that I hate staying at home.

Sitting still and saying nothing seems to be the mentality of Malaysian Chinese. They speak aloud in newspapers, but when you ask them to protest and walk around in dynamic groups of a city. They will never want to do so because it's troublesome and they fear that they will get a pinch in the ass by authorities.

What we should be doing is not sitting still. We should be out there fighting for what's really Satu Malaysia, for what they really mean is equal rights. We should turn the logic around, those leaving the country shouldn't be us, it is those who bribe and are bribed that should leave. Don't make everyday seem like a weekend that locks us up away from our dreams.

*Fighting, wasn't so hard.*
