I am a fish. A cute, adorable fish.
Blub, blub, blub.
I float to the top. Blub. I set my sights on the world above the ocean. Blub. Sink, into the ocean I go, again.
Blub. Blub. Blub.
Okay. I have to cut that crap. Felt like a fish after all that swim lesson today. Really calming and relaxing and to a certain extent, I really felt like I was almost sleeping, rocked into slumber by the gentle rolling ripples across the pool. This is my fifth lesson and along with the other practice sessions, I feel so good being able to swim again. I used to be able to swim when I was younger and I forgot how to swim after not using the skills for a decade (sounds so stupid, how can one forget?) but that was what happened.
Watched Naruto just yesterday with two of my close buddies back in Form 6. Quite a good movie but one has to actually read the manga beforehand to get a clue of what is happening. Sasuke appearing to shatter a meteor out of the blues seems pretty strange for someone watching the movie without prior knowledge of what happened to Sasuke. And I got to say, I loved Sai in the movie. Dorky but sexy. And certainly, the funniest of the bunch.
Valentine's is just around the corner and as usual, I have no dates! Any kind soul willing to date me? It doesn't have to be romantic, we can do dorky stuffs together like photobombing the pictures of other couples. ;) Or just a sweet dinner getting to know each other. (Despo giler)

Fires can burn themselves out.
Has anyone come up to your grille and have him or her tell you something that you are (insert an adjective that is used to describe someone negatively)? Or you overheard someone talking about you that you are so-and-so? Or you found out from some online social media site or forum that is bad-mouthing you?
In such cases, what do you do? Being a victim (I have things about me being said on social media that does not totally represent me, but alas, people do talk about others, right?) myself, I have learned a thing or two about how to handle such atrocities. (such powerful word, I cringe while I wrote that)
What should you do? The answer is simple. Let me give you an illustration. Now, close your eyes (okay, you can still take a peek because you have to know what the next steps are).
Picture a forest. A large, lush and green blanket of trees stretching far and wide across the ground. Got that? Good.
Now, imagine you were a horrible human, lighting a matchstick and dropping it onto the undergrowth (I SAID IMAGINE, I DIDN'T SAY YOU WERE REALLY HORRIBLE!).
If the undergrowth is dry (like Australian forests during summer), the fire quickly spreads across the forest, like a plague. Slowly, but surely, it creeps through. Every root, stem, branch and bud gets licked by flames, then engulfed by its voracious appetite.
Then, realising that you lack the resources to stop the onslaught of this disaster, you sit there and watch the whole forest turn to cinders and ashes, feeling sorry for not being able to do a shit about it (see, I told you that you weren't that horrible).
Eventually, the forest turns to nothing but a barren wasteland of ashes. But the flames are gone and the land is left scorched, parched by the ferocious flames.
What I am trying to explain from the rather lenghty illustration is: Let it be. Let the problem escalate. Let people hate all they want. Eventually, (yes, eventually), they will come to their senses that for them to hate you and for you to ignore their hatred, leads to nothingness. Leads to a total waste of energy. That you do not really give a shit of what people thinks of you. In the end, you still win without having to stick a finger into the fire and getting yourself burnt in the process. Smile and the fire will choke itself out. TADAH.
On why I do get haters. Personally, I am quite arrogant and may come off as bossy to those who don't really know me. Trust me, I have heard from various close friends of mine that they thought I was really arrogant, bossy and "in my own world" when they first came to know me. Thankfully, these are the bunch that took all the pain to know me and I do treasure them. Unfortunately for some, they choose to take me as what they perceive and voila, I am Mr. Arrogant-bitch-that-needs-to-get-titties-squeezed-dry-guy. So, to those who know me well, you know I love you guys a lot. I don't hide my opinions from you guys and yes, I am honest and blunt as hell with these guys.
Oh yes, I also don't mix well with several species of people. The list goes as follows:
1. Hypocrites
Oh yes. While most people are taught to be professional and treat everyone equal and as gentle as possible, even to hypocrites, I personally can't do it. With these people, I give them raw pounding of harsh words, sarcasm and cynicism, all mixed together to form a deadly concoction which I do not hesitate to use.
2. Big-(cock)talk-no-do
Ah this one. I used to have a friend (I am not sure I would want to continue considering him as a friend, though) back in my freshie year as an undergrad who keeps telling me of sweet promises, things we would do together. This isn't a homo thing, please. "Bro, I will bring you out when I bring my car into campus next year.", "Bro, we can always go yamcha to so-and-so place" and the list of sweet promises goes on and on and on. Yeah, I feel like your bro. The next year, all he does is bring girls around (girls are starting to approach him because of his car, though) and I was never brought out before. Don't be so foolish to fall for promises, people. It can hurt your ass more than a taekwondo kick in the groin when your beautiful imagination gets shattered into smithereens by the person you actually want to trust. *pauses to take a deep breath*
3. "On my way ah, you wait ah!"
Being a Malaysian, and also a student who took basic level quantum chemistry, we can quantize the outcomes into two: That person is either getting out of the house or is really already on his or her way. Indirect implication: That person is already late for having to cause you to make the call. People who are not punctual get on my nerves quite easily, especially serial "On-the-way"ers. Being punctual is not only a sign of courtesy but also on how much you actually treasure the time you want to spend with the person whom you are about to meet. Imagine being 6 hours late to a date, if you make it out alive, thank the heavens and go buy a lottery, you WILL strike jackpot. But chances are you'd be dead as a statue. Bottom line, punctuality = care = love = respect = sincerity. Being late brings the exact opposite of the given adjectives.
4. Fake "damsel-in-distress"
Ever heard of size-zero people who say they are fat, hoping that people will console them with beautiful words, or guys with herculean physique but claim that they are out of shape, just to have their emotions satiated when people feed positive comments and feedback into their ego. These people just have to get their asses straight and stop playing pity. If you need satisfaction from being rubbed in all the right places by praises and self-glorification, perhaps one should try self-servicing. Makes one feel good minus the trouble of having to be damsel-in-distress. "Oh, hear thee, hear thee, it is I, distress, am I in." LU JIAK SAI LA.
It's probably that I do not hide my contempt for these people is what gets me grilled from people all the time. One thing for sure, I don't fake myself to conform the the needs and wants of the society. After all, if we keep conforming, the will never be a change in status quo. No change in the status quo only equates to stagnancy and hence, never will there be improvements.
So yes, hate me, loathe me. No great leader was born without trials and hurdles.
Loves.

Courtesy doesn't come with wealth.
Well, we often see in dramas that rich people are often the antagonist and how a helpless protagonist keeps getting bullied by the antagonist, just because the antagonist is rich and consequently, powerful.
Yes, these jerks actually exist in real life and some of them, are unfortunately, uglier than what you see in dramas, both aesthetically and also in terms of attitude. It's pretty obvious that money does not come with courtesy in one package and both are purchased separately. Quite sadly, even Malaysians, who are quite well-known for being courteous, have their reputation marred because of a small group of rich assholes who think they can boss people around.
My experience that led to this conclusion, happened to me just yesterday while doing window-shopping in KLCC. Quite normal for wealthy people to frequent this place to flaunt their wealth. So there's this really ugly couple that's walking around KLCC with their equally annoying bodyguard. This dumb couple doesn't know where they want to walk and this dumb guy who is on his phone holding his idiotic lady can't just stop at one corner and continue his conversation without blocking other shoppers. What's more infuriating is this couple's bodyguard with god-level stupidity, pushed me aside when I was walking. Errr, I didn't know that the couple bought part of the shopping complex and I can't walk in their direction. Please, if you can't survive without being knocked into the shopping complex, stay at home and whine. Don't come out and be a jerk. Even if you are a VIP, that doesn't give you any privilege to do such nasty and rude things to others. VIP? Yes, Very Important Pigs you are. Go back to the sty where you belong, thanks.
One other infuriating issue is that how Malaysians can be so stupid while boarding public transportation. At the same time, their attitude while taking these public transport is downright disgusting. I saw two girls hogging priority seats in the train, reserved for the elderly, disabled and also pregnant ladies. It's fine to take a seat if there aren't any of these people of special needs around. Quite sadly, there was a pregnant lady in the train. And yes, there were two old man in the train too. All they did was sitting down on the seats and tapping away on their phones, ignoring these people that really need the sit more than they do. How disgusting can these people be? I can only wonder.
Nevertheless, the day ended slightly better when I received confirmation on my internship placement. Hoping that all comes out well. More importantly, I do hope my application to Kyoto University is approved in just 3 months to come.
Be nice, people.

Oh no. No. No. No.
So, it's that time of the month again where I have to be an usher in church again. A bi-monthly affair, actually. Not that I am complaining but there are some things that disturb me.
Plainly, something that I find unsettling is the fact that the most pious of people are usually the ones with the most pathetic and sad personality. Back the to previous round when I was ushering, probably just before Christmas last year, I was quite appalled to see one of my church's senior member did something that didn't really quite agree to the spirit of being a Christian. Although we are all fallen creatures, according to the Scriptures, I don't think that what he did was appropriate. This senior member made a member of the Indonesian congregation (which completed their morning service not long before ours were to start) clean up the church compound which was soiled black from soot, probably coming from people burning offering paper for their deities nearby. It wouldn't hurt just taking the broom to clean up but this had to happen. Totally not cool. Occasionally, I question Christians on their faith. We put so much emphasis on the Word, on Christ and yet we fail to live like servants, like Him. At times, I see people from church are no different from Pharisees. So into the Word but at the same time, so far from it. I have to admit I am not a perfect Christian myself but from a human point-of-view, is this what someone who calls himself or herself Christian should do? I find it a bitter fact to swallow, that many Christians are like that. Partly the reason why I try to avoid joining Christian events. If I am in one, I keep my eyes on Him. It's disturbing to see so many hypocrites in the guise of holy-molies.
That being put aside, life has been pretty smooth, simple and also laid-back ever since finals were over. When my "predicted results" were in, my heart almost fell through the ground, popped up on the other side of Earth and came back to the socket where it belongs. A sharp drop of 0.071 from my previous pointer of 3.957 to 3.886. Statistically, it still puts me in first-class, nothing to be worried about, right? I left the thought for a moment. Enjoyed life nevertheless. Suddenly, this thought came knocking. Unwillingly, I took out my calculator and some paper to do the math (WHO IN THE WORLD DOES MATH ON SEMESTER BREAKS?). Stunned, my calculations show that I scored a measly 3.575. That shocked me for a moment. How? I was always in the dean's list and never have I fell below first-class before. I guess, humans are meant to fail once in a while, no? And there I thought, this is it for this semester. A few days later... Things changed slightly for the better. The pointer increased slightly from 3.886 to 3.956. I couldn't be happier! Guess they were trolling with students, perhaps? I can foresee quite a good Chinese New Year ahead. Who are Monkeys of the Chinese zodiac? Raise your hands and let me hear you holler!
Oh yes. I have not done any shopping for CNY. No new clothes (I wish I had) but as I grow up, I slowly realise that CNY isn't (always) about new clothes, new everythings. You tend to become satisfied and happy just being in the presence of those who you love and care for. (Of course, having Hermes or Gucci for CNY isn't bad, just saying. *winks*) So, in case I am too lazy to blog until who-knows-when, I wish you and your family a warm and blessed Chinese New Year and may prosperity, wealth and love be upon your household throughout this (rather challenging) year ahead and to my non-Chinese readers, happy holidays (or you can always just drop by any Chinese homes and harvest red packers, just pretend like as if you know them!). HUAT A!
Lots of love,

So much for the enthusiasm. :)
Okay, this post was actually intended for the last day of 2014. However, being New Year's eve, we tend to be a little lazier than usual. Thus, I procrastinated updating my blog up until now. Take that! HIAH!
2014. I wouldn't say it was really an eventful year for me. I turned 22 in 2014. Gone to work as a tuition teacher. Enjoyed a trip to Redang with my former classmates back in Form 6. Pretty much sums up the eventful things that happened the past year.
Rather than being an eventful year, it was more of a year for self-discovery. It felt like every day and every week, there was something new to discover about myself. Like, how patient I have become (no, I am still very impatient, but much better compared to when I was younger). How much a workaholic I am. How much a perfectionist I am. There are many things that I have let go and new insights I have gained. To be honest, I can't recall much at the moment but it's deep inside me. I just have to let you guys know when I come up with another post.
The most important thing that I learned towards the end of the year is: When someone truly loves you, he or she will try his or her best for you. He or she may not succeed but it's the best they'll put in. I tried my best, the other half didn't. I felt upset in the beginning. Why could someone treat me like this. Later on, I realised, my other half didn't really feel anything at all. I was the one imprisoning myself in my own hurt and despair. On the eve of New Year, I finally let go completely. It was tough, gradually letting go throughout November up to the last day of the year.
I also removed many "contacts", especially on Facebook and my phone. It is really just the right time to remove all the clutter and mess from my life. People who don't take the effort to catch up with you don't really need to know what updates you have. As such, my life is made easier. I only see people I love and care for. Chat with those actually care for me and vice versa. 2015, may not be a very smooth sailing year. I am not going to ask 2015 to be nice to me (like some other idiots do). I am just going to grow with the challenges and see where the tides and the winds will bring me.
And those of you who know me personally, wish me luck! I am applying to go to Kyoto for a scholarship program to complete an 8-week research course under a researcher at Kyoto University. Optimistic but not putting too much hope. Let's hope all things fall into place.
Love you peeps.

Jelly beans. JELLY BEANS!
Now that I have gotten your attention (yes, jelly bean lovers), I can now go on to sharing my post. No, it doesn't really have anything to do with jelly beans, how to make them or how they look like. That is what happens when you no longer have a relevant title to use and you end up putting something really random just to gain some attention.
How's life, you ask?
Life has been pretty good, except for the occasional downs, especially when it comes to the uncertainty involving relationships. Let's just say, I am in a complicated relationship now. It's like not being able to commit to a relationship with each other, but at the same time having a feeling of adoration for each other. It just feels like drowning but you are not really drowning. Or let's take another example: You feel the poo poo coming out but it decides to stay at your rectum or closer to the exit.
Anything interesting lately?
Well, yes! Mum got me a G-SHOCK watch, which I totally love. Been wanting one for quite a while now and you could say I am a happy boy. And of course, with lots of cheap books and Big Bad Wolf is just around the corner, I can't wait to shop 'til my pants drop at the book fair. Furthermore, with the yuletide season just a month away, there's lots of stuff to look at. If you're planning to get me gifts, I dare say you could give me anything with Doraemon, Ultraman, Pokemon or Bleach-themed anime and cartoon gifts. A bag would be great, or some really strange but sophisticated looking garment. Dropping by Pavilion and Fahrenheit 88 the other day really made my wallet drool but thank goodness I was able to hold back... Just for that period of time, though.
What's going to happen in the nearest time to come?
Exams! EXAMS! *pulls hair* No wait I don't have much hair. Yes, finals is just around a jiffy away. Scary. With all the assignments piled up skyscraper-high, combined with finals so near it smells like you could just smell someone's fart, it's going to be really hectic. Like. HECTIC. HAG-TICK. Ooo, ticks.
And you, yes you, a pretty and hot. (whoever that's reading this)

How's life, you ask?
Life has been pretty good, except for the occasional downs, especially when it comes to the uncertainty involving relationships. Let's just say, I am in a complicated relationship now. It's like not being able to commit to a relationship with each other, but at the same time having a feeling of adoration for each other. It just feels like drowning but you are not really drowning. Or let's take another example: You feel the poo poo coming out but it decides to stay at your rectum or closer to the exit.
Anything interesting lately?
Well, yes! Mum got me a G-SHOCK watch, which I totally love. Been wanting one for quite a while now and you could say I am a happy boy. And of course, with lots of cheap books and Big Bad Wolf is just around the corner, I can't wait to shop 'til my pants drop at the book fair. Furthermore, with the yuletide season just a month away, there's lots of stuff to look at. If you're planning to get me gifts, I dare say you could give me anything with Doraemon, Ultraman, Pokemon or Bleach-themed anime and cartoon gifts. A bag would be great, or some really strange but sophisticated looking garment. Dropping by Pavilion and Fahrenheit 88 the other day really made my wallet drool but thank goodness I was able to hold back... Just for that period of time, though.

Negative idiotropism.
Tropism, in biology, is a term used to describe the response of plant growth to the stimuli around them. An example is the demonstration that plant shoots grow towards the direction of light, is a proof of positive phototropism. At the same time, the roots tend to grow in the direction of water and gravity, which are both hydrotropism and geotropism.
Which brings me to the title of my blog post. Idiotropism. How I respond to idiots. Obviously, negative idiotropism means I respond negatively towards idiots in the society.
I always believe, as humans, we are all born with the gift of knowledge and ability to think. There may be some unfortunate individuals that are not able to voice their thoughts in a tangible manner (which may be brought about by illness, birth defects and etc), but the rest of us are given the right to think. In a way, we are all born philosophers and thinkers or the highest orders. Quite interestingly, many of us revoke this right for the simpler notion or idea that buying the ideology and philosophy of others can make one's life, much less of a hassle. Yes, we end up being slaves to the idea of others. Sometimes, we are so engrossed and drunk in it, we forget that we, are also truly capable, if not, are better at coming up with even brighter and bolder thoughts. Alas, we lose it all.
So, why did I type all that long-winded stuff that my grandma would consider it her grandma's story? As of lately, I have been reading many news on Facebook (my closest source on information to life outside the campus) and it is quite disturbing to see many university students actually buying the thoughts of politicians and extremists. They seem to love it so much they are lost in it. Gone and never to come back to their senses. Are we so vulnerable and weak? Are we not taught to differentiate between the good and the bad? Lately, good and bad is no longer what you decide but rather, decided for you and you just got to swallow it like a bitter pill, down you aching throat. Confiscation of your freewill to think makes nothing out of you but an idiot. Idiots, I hate.
Truth is, I can no longer stand all these complications, I prefer to remain silent and let natural selection play its role. After all, the strong MAY survive. (It disturbs me that brainless jellyfish have been roaming the Earth since the age of the dinosaurs). I guess that would describe my change in attitude quite recently.
Of course, I am a little heartbroken while writing this today. I have this feeling that he doesn't care anymore. Yes, I am hurt. As much as I deny that feeling, it is real and it is there.
Drama queen shit. Back to work.
xoxo to my readers.
