My point of views. Like it or not? That’s your problem.

You Know Lar…

Posted on By sweet surrender 13 Comments on You Know Lar…

OMG! I only got to know about it today. My bro is in form 3 this year and will be sitting for his PMR end of this year. It’s about his class. You know that the Ministry of Education is trying to introduce sex education in school but hmm… I’m not sure is there any or not?

Now, let’s go to the main topic. According to my bro, his Science teacher really sucks big time. Why? Ok… I’m not condemning the Malays or Muslims. I don’t see there is anything wrong for you to teach your students about sexual health/organs. He told me that his Science teacher couldn’t explain this topic clearly to them and kept trying to censor what she said. If you remember, we used to have one of the chapters that covered reproduction organs right? Here’s an exmaple:

A _____ is a male reproduction organ. (Answer is “penis”)
Teacher:*Write the answer on the board*
Students: *Copy the answer*
Teacher: This is you-know-lar. No need me to explain futher.
Students: Why?
Teacher: Because of my religion, I’m not suppose to talk about it. (not the exact quote but it sounded something like this)

WTF!!! For goodness sake! What is it so hard to explain what is a penis or vagina or scrotum or sperms etc. to your students? She couldn’t even bring herself to say the word! We didn’t ask you to talk about how to have sex!!!! I mean like explain to them scientifically, like what it does scientifically. No one asks you to explain to the students how to use it such as carass it to make it erected and you can play with it with your mouth or your pussy yada yada yada… (-_-“) You tell them that it’s a “PENIS” not “Willie” or “Captain Strong” or whatever name you have for it.

I’m sure your religion does not forbid you to explain and teach your student properly about sexual reproduction organs. Teaching them how to have sex is of course not right, that’s for sure. You are a teacher, can’t you explain it properly instead of always having to censor your words using “you know lar“. Summore it’s in the textbook and all you have to do is rephrase them! There is no need for you to explain about your sexual life or others’ sexual life to them. If you don’t explain properly to the students, what do you expect them to do? Go back home, hook up the Internet and type in these keywords and search for it and they 100% ended in porn sites. So… There you go… They are going into the wrong sites and learning something wrong. Blame who? Blame the parents? Or should blame the teachers?

With this kind of attitude and mentality, do you think sexual education can be successfully implemented in schools? NO WAY! If it’s already in the system, then I guess during this period, the teacher won’t be teaching and will just let the students do their own works such as completing their homeworks or study as long that they do not make noise. That’s for sure.

What’s your say? It’s really too much. You’re a teacher not a sex guru! There is nothing wrong to teach your students about reprodcutions organs and what the heck that you took your religion as an excuse to not to explain to them in a proper way by teaching them about the risks and diseases that will affect their intimate organs if they do not take care of them, about periods, about erections etc.

Besides that, as you know, the current education system is using English to teach Science and Mathematics. Everything is in English but guess what?!!?! My bro said that his teachers never teach them in English, all the classes are conducted in Bahasa Malaysia(Melayu) or the Malay language! How on earth are you going to let your students excel in their studies when the exams, the exercises are all in English??!?!? No wonder parents are sending their children to tuition classes because you can’t get proper classes in school! If that’s the case, better no need to send them to school. Just send them to tuition classes will do. Then parents can save lots of time and money. Worst, not long ago I heard that they want to revert back to using the national language to teach! GOSHHH!

There you go… This is our education system. I never like it anyway. Good thing I’m no longer in it. Next time if I can affrod it, I wil make sure my children won’t be getting such crappy education, I’m going to send them out of here which means I’m leaving with them.

Why It Can’t Be One?

Posted on By sweet surrender 18 Comments on Why It Can’t Be One?

By the way, the cruise that I had mentioned that day is no longer available. It’s selling like hot cakes. However, they have another offer for January-March and only RM838/person including free shore excursion. AWWW!!! So cheap! However *cry* the price only valid for 4 persons per sign up.

Saw MAS Golden Holiday package!!! MAS is having offer now!! Package to Perth is SOooO…cheap! BUT… It’s only for twin-sharing! GRRRRRRRRR… Make me even more angry. Air Asia have their holiday packages too and it’s on twin-sharing basis too! Sucks la!!!

Why all these travel packages only valid for 2 or more people travelling together? 🙁 Hate it! Hate it! Why can’t it be one? Why must be on twin-sharing basis?!?! Darn! So unfair! I know lar… It’s all because of quantity else they won’t be able to offer such affordable packages. If you plan to go alone, you have to pay two persons price. *ANGRY* It’s not easy to find a travel companion don’t even say find another 3 persons for a trip!

It’s so unfair for people that wants to travel alone and would like to take up those yummy offers. If you insist of going alone, then you have to pay for 2 persons’ fee to enjoy the package. 🙁 As if being single or travelling alone is a crime that people don’t want to recognise your singlehood. SUCKS SUCKS SUCKS!

You might even said that, following the tour groups or whatever is no fun, better venture the place yourself. I do agree! I hate following tour groups. Besides, they are on twin-sharing basis too. However, even prices for Free & Easy packages only valid for twin-sharing. *CUSS* It’s so hard to find a suitable travel companion ok?!?!? If found the wrong one, your holiday will be ruin to the max. Of course, I cannot find a male companion unless we are NOT require to share a room. Or… Well.. Some might say, “plan your own travel then”. It’s not for everyone OK?!?!? At leats not for me! I’m not the lucky bunch that get to travel once or twice a year, I only have the chance only-God-knows-when. Besides, all my travels before(KL in 2006, S’pore in 2003 and Sibu almost 10 years ago) were pre-arranged and I didn’t require to do anything except tagged myself along.

My whole life… The furthest I’ve been to is KL. Pathetic huh? So… I need to start somewhere like signing up packages as a start to gain some experiences. When I’m more experienced, then I can go and plan my own holiday! Don’t know how to crawl already want to run meh? The main point is that all the packages need you to bring someone along!!!

*Sigh*… What to do? That’s how the world works, those who are singles usually will not have the privilege. I must… I must… I must… Find a boyfriend who is rich enough to bring me travel to anywhere in this world! NUH…. I don’t think my parents will even allow me to go travel with my boyfriend unless he’s my husband. That way, not only that I’ll have a travel companion but also a husband. Kill two birds with one stone! How nice! CRAP! Ignore that part.

Look! Here Comes the Clown!

Posted on By sweet surrender 9 Comments on Look! Here Comes the Clown!

Warning: I’m mean.. Oh Yessss… I am! Lately I’m in the mood of picking just about anything… So, you can skip this post if you want to.

Imagine this:

The hair: Yellow coloured rhinestones hair accessories.
The face: Blue eyeshadow(monotone) with icy pink lipstick.
The body: Tube A-line layered bridal gown in white with small green & pink lace flowers scattered all over the dress.
The feet: White pump with pale yellowish socks.
***
The face: Green eyeshadow(monotone) with pink lipstick.
The body: Asymmetrical A-line gold coloured with greenish tinge when light reflected evening gown
The hand: Black net gloves.
The ear & neck: Gold earrings, silver/white gold necklace.

What do you think? Everything clashed from head to toe (-_-“) I’m not an image consultant, makeup artist or whatever but it’s just common sense OK?!?! GIRLS! This is a disaster! Especially if you are the bride! OMG! Everything was even captured in the video and camera and definitely looked like a CLOWN! Goodness gracious! Super *JIAT LAT*

Who to blame? Both to blame. Many brides have this wrong perception that they must look over the top or trying desperately to show off on their special day. Next, the makeup artist doesn’t know what he/she is doing because they are not professional. However, the huge responsibility still falls to the shoulder of the makeup artist. It’s your job to make them look pretty even with their unreasonable request. Your skills come in here. A lousy one will make you ended up like a clown just like the above mentioned.

Ended up like this for your wedding day is damn pathetic. I want to puke when I saw the photos. Even my brother who is 10 years younger than me asked me, “EH! Why like that?”(o_0”)

Actually the above can be easily corrected by anyone. I mean… It’s quite basic, unless you have black and white vision. Here’s my idea:

The hair: Green coloured rhinestones/white crystals hair accessories.
The face: Earth tones and with tinge of green eyeshadows with not too pink or too red lipstick(stick to more natural tone).
The body: Tube A-line layered bridal gown in white with small green & pink lace flowers scattered all over the dress.
The feet: White pump with NO SOCKS!! Or wear panty hose that is of your skintone.
***
The face: Gold and greenish eyeshadows with not too pink or too red lipstick(stick to more natural tone) topped with gloss.
The body: Asymmetrical A-line gold coloured with greenish tinge when light reflected evening gown
The hand: No gloves or wear gloves that match the gown’s colour.
The ear & neck: Gold earrings, skip the necklace. Else go for the same gold.

So bride-to-be, don’t try too hard. Go for style that can last at least a decade. Go for natural makeup and emphasize one area of your face such as the eyes would be great. Go for style that is not easily drown by time. You’ll never go wrong this way.

Hmmm… I wonder is the bride going to read this or not? I don’t think she will *LOL* Even if she does, I think she won’t know that I’m talking about her as I don’t think she’s even aware of how awful she looked like that day. I don’t care whether she reads it or not anyway as I’m not related in anyway to her. Hahaha…

Streamyx Petition In Press

Posted on By sweet surrender 8 Comments on Streamyx Petition In Press

Warning: Long winding post.

Remember a post that I posted about having problem with Streamxy not long ago? The petition was brought to light by Sin Chiew Daily News on the 14th of January. There was a sudden surge of traffic that day and the signatures kept coming in non-stop. SEE!!! Obviously there are so many unsatisfied customers. Poor Streamyx users :(. There are 2399 signatures as in today, 11.37pm. Thanks to the reporter that had helped in reporting it and I hope more newspapers or mass media can also report about this petition. I hope you can post about it in your blog too. If you want to sign, then click here.

When the report was out that day, someone claimed to be representative of Streamyx called the site owner up and asked him why he started the petition and what happened to his line, then asked him to visit TM Net User Group website to learn more about the speed provided. Before putting down the phone, he added that Malaysia laws do not allow petition. WHAT THE ***!?!?!? So the site owner called up a lawyer to asked about it and the lawyer said that there is no such thing! SEE! Someone is trying to scare him to stop the petition! That’s the job of a coward!

OH! You think we are stupid?

I have subscribed to 512Kbps package. Why am I not getting the whole 512Kbps even when I connect to TM Net’s server?

………how to calculate the ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Modulation) speed for your connection. TM Net provide a connection service speed on DSL level at say 512 kbps. ATM has a block capacity of 35 where there is no wait before the second sequence starts. Therefore the packet is in a block of 35 of service packet speed. For every packet sent there is a 16 bytes header and ATM index of 140 (35 X 4 bytes) for a total header of 700 bytes per block….(click for more details)

HELLO?!?!? We know that! DUH! We know that we can’t get 512Kbps when we subscribe to 512Kbps package! How to explain when we subscribe to 512Kbps when we only get the speed of like 56Kbps only? Or 1Mbps and we only get below 512Kbps? Cannot be?!?!? That’s not right! Primary school students also know the logic. If I get something like 600+, 700+, 800+ or 900+Kbps when I subscribed to 1Mbps, it’s still acceptable. There is no way I pay for 1Mbps package and getting the speed for 512Kbps package or below! What?!!??! You think we are stupid? We are much more IT literate than those operators that answered our phone calls when we called cusotmer support!

Guess what??!?!? These few days, I have to restart my modem at least twice! This is because out of sudden I couldn’t connect to the Internet. Therefore I have to restart my modem to get my line back! GRRRRR… So angry you know! Really suckssssssss!!!

AND! AND! WHAT THE HECK WITH THE USER GROUP!?!?!? What is the use of it? This is what you get from the site:

TM Net User Group is the contatenation of a group of hardcore TM Net users elected to represent the multitute of users of TM Net services.

The Sarawak TM Net user group was formed on the 21 March 2006 and bearing the office by a group of users from various industries. The user group’s aims is to channel the various types of services rendered by TM Net to the users and to collect feedbacks to TM Net on level of services, quality of services and incidental references. Part of which would also contribute to the bridging of digital divide and make to bring common sense of the services offerred by TM Net to educate the users of TM Net various services and to bring the services of TM Net to the vast population of Sarawak.

Guess again! Kenny Sia is the Chairman! Ok… I’m not saying that he’s bad or what, the one providing bad service to us is not him, it’s TM Net. They are just representing us and they are the minority that are lucky enough. However, I don’t think this user group is any helpful or representing us at all. I don’t think TM is even listening to them. The real users are the one that have to put up with all sort of craps and lousy services! The real users are those that signed the petition! If really TM is listening to them, we won’t be getting such crappy services for years! YEA YEA YEA… I know… It’s only started last year but it seems that the problems are increasing instead of decreasing. YEA YEA YEA… I know… Because of increasing subscribers indirectly the there are more complaints.

Pardon me?
Bring common sense? Someone from that group had just called up and didn’t make any sense about the law! Don’t talk about common sense when common sense tells us that this is not the service we should be getting with the money we had spent. Since you are supposed to be representing us, you should escalate and bring our plights to TM management instead of calling us up and blame us for not understanding even tried to hint us to stop the petition by talking about the law!??!?
To educate user? *LOL* You call that educate? Educate us that Streamyx is such a lousy service provider? Educate us not to complain about the bandwidth we are getting that does not tally with our subscribed package because this is the limitation that we have to put up with? Educate us that this is M’sia, that’s why you are getting such crappy services?
Hardcore?*AHEM* There are so many more that are much more hardcore than them! Fine… I don’t want to argue about this. I’m just in the mood of picking.

Bad news for those using BT or EMule. According to them:

Why my download speed is so slow when I use Bit-Torrent and EMule?

That is because both BT and Emule are dealing with 99.9% contents that violates the Terms and Conditions of Streamyx account. Please refers to Section 13.iv and 13.viii. of the Terms and Condition.

YEAH RIGHT! You thought why people subscribe to Streamyx? Of course for downloading! DUH! Else what is the use of Streamyx? And OH! These are the “hardcore” users! Summore, it’s such a shame that our max speed for home user is only 1Mbps or 1.5Mbps depending on the location. I have many overseas readers reading this and I’m sure they are laughing or even surprised that our broadband is such a “narrow”band eh… Agree? What a shame…

Long.. Long.. Long post. How long will this lousy service last? I don’t know… Many said that the petition is just “gay liau”(“no use” in Hokkien), I do aware of that but at least we can know that we are not the only one suffering. This platform is for other unfortunate users to voice out their dissatisfactions and PLEASE! TM USER GROUP! Make yourself useful! You are representing us! GRRRRRRRR!!!

We Need Better Home Security!

Posted on By sweet surrender 5 Comments on We Need Better Home Security!

How many times do you come across news that people’s houses’ got break into? It’s getting on everybody’s nerves! We are no longer safe in our own house. What are the police doing nowadays? Busy catch snakes? Busy drinking coffee? Or we just don’t’ have enough police? Or people are getting so desperate to make a living due to price hike in almost everything.

Most houses now are installed with home security system. No one wants to take the chances of being tied up and robbed or got their houses burglarized when no one’s home.

Found this one product that is very interesting, Finger Print Door Lock. What happened if you are injured or severed your finger? Then you’ll be lock out of your own house *WICKED LAUGH* Do you think our burglars are so high tech by fabricating our fingerprints and used it to access our house? Nuh… Don’t think so, if they are, I don’t think they will do something as “cheap” as this. Hmm… Unless they want to break into our PM’s house or some high profile people’s houses. Hahaha… It will definitely deter them from entering your house or why not use a much easier way? 😛 Go in via the windows. Afraid of that? Then install fake cameras to trick them that they are being monitored or recorded but then… On second thought, why go fake? Go REAL! Duh… Such as Hidden Camera.

Ok… Let’s get back to some serious notes, when is this going to end? Don’t think it will be any sooner. Instead, it will get more and more serious. Therefore, to protect your properties and your family, do invest in proper security system, beware of your surroundings and get to know your neighbours so that everyone can help to keep an eye on each other houses. What I have in mind is that, it could be due to the mentality nowadays that we tend to mind our own business unlike 10 over years ago where everyone practically knew each other in the neighbourhood. It’s not surprising that there are now cases where the neighbours thought that their neighbour is moving out, that’s why a big truck is there to carry their stuffs but it turned out that those are the bad guys! Scary not?
