Kawen Jer La Ngan Bola Tu...



Okay, so today lets talk football. A topic I know nothing about. Here's a question: Why is it fans of English Premier League are so obsessed with their respective teams (MU, Liverpool, Chelsea.... dan yag sewaktu dengan nyer) but they never support England?? The English team consist of some of their favourite players from their so called favourite teams but they sometimes kutuk England. So whats the story here?? If they think England is a ridiculous team to support and they are not as strong, then whats with the obsession?? When asked who is your favourite player they will answer Rooney. But when asked which team do you support their answer would be some other teams; Spain, Italy, Germany, Argentina. I think the EPL is overrated. They have become too commercialized. It only proves that they are not as good as they projected themselves. They may be heroes among their small clubs, but when faced with other giants in this field, they are zero. Too bad that they do not have loyal supporters in them. Well, perhaps within the English people themselves. Tembak diri jer ler England!!!

Wayne Rooney, my nephew's favourite player, I think. Betol ker Dam?? I wonder which team he is on.


The supersexy Christiano Ronaldo. He is even hotter without the hideous football jersey!! Ggrrr.. Nasib ader gambo ni. Decent sket.

Miroslav Klose. Im on his team just in case you are interested to know. Not that I understand why a bunch of grown ups running around like monkeys trying to get the ball. Just to jump on the bandwagon, when people ask me my answer will be "I support Germany". And they are qualified for the next round. Yiipppeee!! (Not that I understand why Im happy about it) I jump simply pick a team. So should you. Hehehe...

So,which team are you on?? Im sure most who are obsessed with the EPL in my family do not even care about how England would fare in the world cup. I wonder which team my brother is on?? My guess is Netherlands but I could be wrong. Hmmm...

Enough of this football talk. Im out of here...

Wealth or Good Looks??

About a week ago, one radio station was discussing about wealth and good looks. They were asking the listeners between the two qualities, which would they look for in a partner. Wealth or good looks?? Most would choose a rich husbands/wives rather than good looking ones. Some were saying they would rather choose a good looking partner cause true love lasts forever compared to money. What??? Bodo nyer!! Yang pelik nyer, boleh DJ tu terkejut bila orang kata they would go for wealth. Whats wrong with that??

  • First of all good looking doesn't mean true love. Are you gonna act towards every other good looking man and woman you meet?? If that is the case, then every good looking man and woman is your true love. Stupid!! You may be attracted to that person, but that doesn't mean you have to act upon the attraction. What if you are married?? Are you gonna leave your spouse cause you've met another good looking person?? I think its just a psycho test of love on humans.
  • Some say better have a good looking husband than a rich one. If they are rich, they will have mistresses. Also stupid because, what makes you think a good looking man doesn't cheat. Both will cheat if they wanna cheat regardless if they are rich or good looking. Someone was saying if you are good looking, your partner will not cheat on you. Owh really?? What about Cheryl Cole?? She's gorgeous and yet her husband had a string of affairs.
  • Wealth or good looks they fade. So it doesn't matter what you choose, at the end of the day both do not last very long if you do not know how to manage them.

I guess it all depends on your preference. Some do not really go for looks, but they go for what their partners could provide them. Some would rather have a good looking ones, regardless if they are morons so their partners could be their trophies. Some will look for average looking partners, with average backgrounds and average pocket size. Whatever your pick is, its your right. There's no right or wrong answer to that. Different people look for different qualities in a partner. Tak payah la buat2 terkejut bila orang dah kasi their opinion.

Wealth or good looks?? So, whats your pick??

Winter Sonata

Owh wow, I havent been updating the blog for quite sometime. If I were paid to maintain this blog, I would have been fired a long long time ago. I hope nobody forgotten the existence of this blog. So sit back a relax as I will take you on a journey you will never forget. I am taking you to Korea. I spent about a week traveling to the capital of Korea, Seoul (atau nama lain ialah Siol), Tongyeong known as the land of the sea and Busan.

They say Korea is a very nice place to visit. Whats so special about Korea, I often asked myself. Unless you are into guys/girls with small eyes or secretly dreamed of being in the world of Winter Sonata then this dog eating country is definitely for you. Well, if the truth must be revealed that was before and I am happy to report that I couldn't be more wrong. You see, Korea was never in my list of countries to visit. I don't remember ever wanting to experience their culture. Not until my friend was given this fantastic opportunity to build her first year of marriage in this land of Kimchi - which taste horrible by the way.

The people are rude (especially in Seoul). They push others around, elbow us when they are in a rush. Where are you rushing to?? Are you catching a plane or something. They do not see the importance of learning English which is an international language by the way and they expect us to learn their language during our short visit. Way too arrogant to communicate with us in English let alone learn the language. At least for the foreigners sake. Especially now as they launched their visit Korea or was it Seoul campaign. And worst of all, there's a double standard in treating the people over there. Had some real experience in Seoul which would be too much to share in one blog entry. So we may have to get back to that another time.


As for the food, I cant really comment much. I was never adventurous when it comes to food. But I must say that I saw a few weird looking animals at their market and tasted some which I had never before. All in all, it was good, all because my friend cooks and mostly we had sea food. One thing for sure, shrimp burger is super famous over there. McDonald's has got the best. Yummy!! I'm drooling here.


Korea itself may be rich with history, (though I myself am not too sure but that's not the subject now), but it pains me to say that they do not really represent the image that most would have towards the East - friendly, respectful,helpful, polite, courtesy. Okay, not all are like that, but in general this is how we the East people have been projecting ourselves.

Despite of all the complains I've been making, it is a wonder that there are heaps of foreigners here in Korea - Seoul particularly. Having witnessing that, I started to ask myself, is Korea really that bad or is it just me?? Whats with the resistance to their way of life?? It's not like I'll be living here my whole life. So suck it up and follow their lead. And that's what I did for one whole week. That was when I realized that Tongyeong and Busan may not be as developed as Seoul, but they are the ones with all the positive values the Eastern people are famous for. Of all the 3 cities I've visited, Busan would be the most appealing for me. It's beautiful, the people are friendly, you can shop til you drop (which I did) and that was more than enough for a week's visit. At least for me.


Unfortunately though, their currency is bigger than us and their standard of living is one of the highest in the world. So go figure. You need at least a million won (about RM3,000) for a single trip like what I did. A secretary earns at least 6 million won a month. So you can imagine how much those with a professional profession could earn in this country. Of cause, tax is also high.

Though I never learned a single word of Korean, let alone understand Hangul, it was definitely one of my memorable experiences as I had several raw encounters with the Koreans. Unlike if you are in a traveling group, you will have an easier approach of understanding this beautiful Republic. So, would I recommend Korea to anyone. You bet I would.
