Religion = Marketing Plan


To me a belief is an emotional or spiritual sense of certainty. It’s not real, it’s not true, it’s just something that our mind have faith in. it comes from inside. To some it’s their God, some to their goddess, and even some to the sun. There’s nothing from real world can change that. Or can they?

Apparently, these days nothing is really impossible. People can jump off a building, lie on top of sharp nails and didn’t kill themselves. Why can’t change someone’s faith? It just takes a couple of persuasions and voila… you changed his/her God from bald to beardy and a little skinny. Or maybe from wearing a turban to six dots on His forehead?

The question is, why messed with others faith? Just so people take notice and aware that certain religion is on the map?

Maybe for one religion is to gather as much people as possible for money so they could have their charity to the poor and paid for utilities such as chairs, place, etc (am I being too positively thinking?).

Maybe if some people still confused on what faith to take, it’s fine for any religion to ‘follow-up’ and who knows, perhaps one’s interested. But to actually convinced people (who actually have faith on their own mind) to change their faith is other thing; don’t you have other better things to do? Not only you’re insulting other faith, you’re also building basic form of fanaticism.

It’s just not OK!

Lots of Love!

Bobby


I watched the movie ‘Bobby’ recently, not because my name was attached big on the movie poster, but I was more psyched with the all-celebrity-cast. They have Anthony Hopkins, Helen Hunt, Demi Moore, Ashton Kutcher, Elijah Wood, Lindsay Lohan, Sharon Stone, Heather Graham, that dude played morpheus in the matrix, that kid from Transformer who I’ve heard dated Rihanna?, and many more!

The movie was drop.. dead… Boring!!

Hey, I have nothing against that senator of the united state dude whose name was Robert F. Kennedy but people called him Bobby (what was dat?). Apparently someone disliked him when he voted won for becoming president and killed him in the kitchen scene filled with lots of people who tried to get his autograph. Looking at the movie, it was a teenager who killed him with a gun right in front of his face.

Basically, the movie was about a bunch of people who lived during the scene and around the area of Hotel Ambassador a.k.a where Bobby died. Anthony Hopkins played the manager of the hotel, Helen Hunt played the wife of some rich men I presume (I know the cast, he’s quiet popular, but I don’t know his name), Demi Moore played some drunk-ass-bitch popular singer who perform before the president show up at the party, Ashton Kutcher played some hippie drug addict who sold it at the hotel to that transformer guy and got caught up by police at the end of the movie, Elijah wood played a young 19 years old boy whose apparently scared that he has to go to Vietnam to serve the country so he asked his friend Lindsay Lohan to married him (married people still serve the country but to Germany and not Vietnam at the front line) and seemingly she kinda fell in love with him. Sharon Stone played a wife of Food and Beverage manager who cheated with Heather Graham who played information board lady… and other cast that I liked was that Mexican kitchen boy, he’s quiet cute, his smile was breathtaking! Oh.. and that morpheus dude played a head chef in the kitchen. That dude who played food and beverage supervisor who got fired was quiet famous too, but I don’t recall his name…

hmmm… all and all, this movie was filled with celebrity and that was its only main attraction I must say, even the poster couldn’t fit all the celebrity names. It was not a movie, it was a documenter film! I was so wrong picking this over ‘No Reservations’.. My bad…


I just download the famous Britney troubled performance at the VMA 2007, and I think it wasn’t that bad, she must’ve lost her move because the fact that she’s a bit overweight and using that super high heels. And media just smart enough to put her worst pictures from the performance on the magazines to create a hyperbole situations of her bikini-malfunction-flubby-belly. Her dance was still hot minus the stiff moves. But the one thing that I can’t resist to complain was the lip-synch! Ok, between the dance and the overweight thing I guess it’s ok to lip-synch (Chris brown and Justin Timberlake was totally lip-synch too), at least concerned enough to do it properly! Oh.. And the hair... the hair… her hairdresser should get fired indeed!

Lots of Love!

Pullip Contest


Dove
(the other one, but not the one we posted)

It all started when a friend saw a pullip-dolls contests on the internet… on no.. no no, it was all started when certain gal-pal, Robertino or should I call Lindsay Lohan (‘she’ loved it), having these craziness towards Blythe, Dal, and most recently Pullip. For information here, those name I said were all dolls (more like Bratz here) that produced in Japan (as I would like to think) and cost for unreasonable $100 each! And they also have collector items that worth up to $3000!! Lets not even mention the collector items, and still $100 for a 25cm tall doll is just a no-no, at least a no for me. Robert here, apparently is willing to spend extra money and have like eight of them (raise your hand, he called them his daughters, hallelujah!). And not to forget, all the accessories like a $30 wigs, $15 fake wings, all the fashion items, eye balls (oh yeah, just like us, they can change their eye color too!), even bigger boobies!!! Ka-Ching…

I’ve met them all, I cannot remember which one which, but I do remember Zi Yi (does.. not.. look like Zhang Zi Yi) and Dove (I have to admit, her wig is fabulous!). Started 3 weeks ago, he asked me to create fashion items for his ‘daughters’, that’s where I took Zi Yi home and created some couture (I love the term) for him. It does not end very well (bear in mind that I don’t know how to sew), the stitches all messed up. But I manage to cover it by using the same thread color, and of course saying that the theme for my couture line was ‘messy baby-doll’.

And so, he saw this pullip-photography contest on the Internet for the prize, of course, another pullip! He wanted to try, so he applied as one contestant, and asked me to help him during the entire photography take thorough the contest. He asked for my help all right, that beeyatch really pushed me over the edge, kept on asking for ideas on his 1st task (which the theme was set by the jury and it was ‘mirror’). Intended for doing the take on Sunday, I asked him to stay over on Saturday, so Sunday morning he will be ready to go to the scene. We went home a little bit late, around 2.30, and bewildered whether we should not sleep ‘til morning or sleep and wake early with alarms. We ended up brainstorming for ideas and took some sample take, probably until around 6, when we really felt sleepy and all. We slept! 7… 8… 9… 10… 11…! Quick shower and we went to the setting; it was not like what I wanted it to be (no water on the stone-cup, no waterfalls running, no nothing!). Settled on the sample-take-was-good-enough, we end up staying comfortably at free-day café and played with the wireless Internet while I enjoy my grape fruit something and Robert posted out photograph to the jury.

I just found out that the jury already received our Dove’s post and hoping we didn’t get eliminated! (Oh yes, btw, we use Dove as our model in the photograph)

Lots of Love!

graduation = exiting?



Tomorrow is 16th September 2007, known to me as my graduation day. Should I be excited? If I don’t, then maybe what I’m feeling right now is just right, for I am now not really thrill about tomorrow. Felt like tomorrow is just any other day, any other Sunday morning where I usually stayed home and wait for the rest of the family member home one by one. But no, tomorrow I have to wake earlier to attend the ceremony with both my parents, it’s as if I’m urged to go there and perhaps stand there with the other students. On the other hand, my mom, someone that already booked a salon to do her hair tomorrow morning, seems more excited than I am. She kept asking what time is the ceremony and what time does it end… well, perhaps she just wanted to confirm to her karaoke friends what time will she and my dad be arriving to attend the weekly karaoke routine after the ceremonial of her son’s graduation.

I guess paying for the ceremony was a mistake then, at least for me. Not for my mom whom apparently willing to pay anything so that her son will be wearing the graduation robe (known as Toga). Other than it’s not worth the money, it’s just another pretentious party whereas the university took credit of, and not to forget the money advantage. No wonder they keep building another tower and soon (as they planned) an educational city as they called it. Technically, I am now already an S.ds the minute I received the paper back then. Guess I should just assume tomorrow as another social party I have to attend, a party without any food and drinks! Man, that party is going to suck so bad!

I don’t even know what to wear tomorrow (under the ugly Toga they gave me). They put a bow tie in the package, I’m not gonna wear them that’s for sure! Instead, a slim black fashion tie should do it.

Lots of Love!

ma prérogative



I was on the way to megamal with both my nephews, Matthew and Nathan, to buy some peas for my mother. And I played ‘My Prerogative’ by Britney Spears. And suddenly on the reff, both Matthew and Nathan sang to the song!

‘Everybody’s talking all this stuff about me, why don’t they just let me live.. I don’t need permission, make my own decisions… Ow!.. That’s my prerogative…’

THEY are adorable! I smiled all the way there and home! I played the song over and over again! From then on, it’s a must when they’re in the car, we played that song! I know it’s not the first song they sang, but at least it’s the first adult song with nasty words they sang (should I be proud or pitied?) ah, anyway.. just like their uncle, they love Britney Spears!

We’re trying to get then to sang Umbrella by Rihanna, doesn’t work as good as My Prerogative. They only sang the ‘ella ella ella e e e’… they did sang the reff of ‘just like a pill’ by Pink too tho…

Beaucoup D’amour!

Britney spears! O yeah, she’s back! With her new single ‘gimme more’ featuring Timbaland! Isn't that just kick-you-in-the-head-smack-you-in-the-crotch fantastic?

Think it’s going to be so freakin cool! O my my… She’s always the best, just hopin her comeback would be even sexier and different and all over the edge! I could just picture her next video! Her songs were always great.

Can't wait to hear her latest music! O gosh, I think I never been this excited since the cartoon of a genie that comes from the future was available on television! It’s up-tempo, I’m gonna love it! Actually, I’ve listened to a very little part of a song, and it was indeed sexy! Can’t wait for the whole song!

Lots of Love!
