Translation

Always acting so greedy, your soul will wither
She only uses difficult words, I can’t become good friends with her
I crash into an opposing wind and start bawling my eyes out
In the morning I forget it all, “Aaah…”
Let’s lighten our heads
Until we can ride up in the fluffy clouds
My walking path in spring has a coronet of yellow flowers
My walking path in summer is covered with a march of cicadas
More important than anything else, let’s join hands in the softly blowing wind
It feels just a little bit nice, and we notice it’s already twilight
Without noticing, relaxed, our pattern of happiness gradually changes
My sky has grown far wider than I ever thought it would
My walking path in autumn plays a melody rustling through fallen leaves
My walking path in winter projects an icicle moon on water
More important than anyone else, let’s join hands in the softly blowing wind
It feels even nicer than before, let’s laugh with faces that haven’t seen a thing
On my walking path in rain, we make a sidelong glance at the soaking wet bench
On my walking path in sunshine our shadows stretch out long
More important than anyone else, let’s join hands and proudly look before
We continue along our path without using the map we made
More important than anything else, let’s join hands in the softly blowing wind
It feels just a little bit nice, and we notice it’s already twilight

Anyway, while enjoying the last of my holidays, I watched this Korean film by the name Taegukgi – The Brotherhood of War. Oh my god, it was so good. It’s better than Shaving Ryan’s Privates anytime. I mean Saving Private Ryan.

SYNOPSIS
After independence, Korea is full of hope for a better future. Family of Jin-tae is none different. Jin-tae lives with his mother, younger brother Jin-seok, and fiancé Young-shin. His mother and Young-shin runs a noodle shop in a market and he shines shoes to send Jin-seok to university.
Although the living isn’t easy, they are working hard for their better future. Yet, the Korean War breaks out and Jin-tae and Jin-seok get drafted and are located at the battlefront immediately. With bullets flying and bombs going off a few inches away, Jin-tae realizes that he has to keep his brother alive and send him back home safe even if he hurts himself. Believing so, he learns that earning a Medal of Honor may send Jin-seok home, and now Jin-tae begins volunteering for dangerous missions.
Yet, Jin-seok is always uncertain about Jin-tae’s motivation. Midst of war, U.N. troops join the war and the war seems to end soon. Somehow, Jin-tae succeeds in many missions and ends up getting a Medal of Honor. By then, Jin-tae has driven war crazy with such hatred for North Koreans and Jin-seok refused to go home. Their tension grows between two and there is sudden attack of Chinese Army. With Chinese Army coming down ruthlessly two brothers get separated and Jin-tae believes that Jin-seok is killed during the battle.
Jin-tae is now running mad. Yet nobody can bring the dead brother back. It is here in this ruined country that these two beloved brothers are plunged into an unexpected turning moment of their fate. — Official Site

god damn blogging script

Hello people,
Sorry for the non-updates, I cant seem to get my movable type script working after transfering it to a new server. I cant login to my script or even post comments on my posts.
I’ve read the troubleshooting manual but it doesnt seem to work. I dont know how to reinstall MT with my old archives in it! Anyone has any idea? 😀 email me!
Anyway, a little update about myself.
I was called for an interview with one of the prestigious law firms in Kuala Lumpur.
I hate interviews. I hate the awkwardness feeling and questions such as, “Where do you see yourself in 5 years time?”.
If I had the choice, I would say….
“Sitting on your chair most likely”
“The boss of this company”
Well, I was brought to an empty room with a table and 4 chairs. I was left alone for more than 30 minutes to fill up my application form. I got so bored till i started snapping pictures of the room.



Few minutes later, my interviewer came. He’s one of the partners of the firm. Let’s call him Mr. G.
The interview went well until he asked me, “So what is the latest you heard about this firm?”. I was shocked. I was totally unprepared for that question. I knew I had to answer that question. If I fail, I wouldn’t get the job. If I did, my future is secured. It was a matter of life and death!
With zero knowledge about what large cases the firm has handled, I said, “Well…..my friend Daniel updates me with the latest happening of the firm. But lately, I haven’t spoke to him…”. Mr. G then said, “Which Daniel?”
From there, my strategy worked! I immediately diverted the conversation and managed to avoid that question. He never asked me anything about the firm again. *phew* or the question “where do you see yourself in 5 years time”.
Mr. G commented that he is very satisfied with me. I got a call from the firm 2 days later 😀
I’m starting work on the 1st of December!

As conclusion, don’t waste your money on original for this album.

George, God here …

“George?”

“Yes?”

“This is God here …”

“Hi, God. What can I do for you?”

“I want you to stop this Iraq thing, George.”

“But you told me to do it, God!”

“No I didn’t, George …”

“But you did! You spoke to me through Karl, Rumsey and Dick and all
those other really clever guys!”

“How did you know it was me talking, George?”

“Instinct, God. I just knew it!”

“Do you really think I’d want you to unleash all this horror and
bloodshed on another lot of human beings?”

“But they’re Muslims! They don’t believe in You, God!”

“But, George, they do believe in me. Jews, Christians and Moslems all
worship the same Me! Didn’t you do comparative theology at school,
George?”

“No, of course not! You think I’m some sort of peace-waving
dope-headed liberal faggot-lover, God?”

“No, of course not, George, but I expect you to know something about
the people you’re bombing.”

“Oh, come on! I know it’s right to bomb those oily rag-heads until
there’s not one left to wipe a wrench on!”

“How do you know that, George?”

“Cause You tell me that’s what I should do, God.”

“George, I do not tell you to do that!”

“But I hear You, God! You speak to me! You tell me what to do! You
tell me what is Right and what is Wrong! That’s why I don’t need to
listen to any soft-baked, mealy-mouthed liberal Kerry-pickers!”

“George, you’re deluding yourself.”

“God! How can you say that? I got some of the most powerful people on
this planet down on their knees every day in the White House just
a-praying to You! Now are you gonna tell me You ain’t listening?
Because if You ain’t listening, God, that’s Your problem – not mine!”

“George, of course I’m listening – it’s you who is not listening to
Me!”

“And I’ll tell you why! ‘Cause You ain’t addressing me right.”

“What d’you mean, you jumped-up little Ivy League draft-dodger?”

“If you’re so ‘omniscient’, God, you oughta know that you gotta go
through Karl Rove, John Ashcroft, Rumsey and Dick … those fellas
know what they’re talking about! I can’t listen to just any deity who
can pick up the phone!”

“But, I’m God, George!”

“Does Karl say you are?”

“But why do you believe Karl?”

“Because my gut tells me he’s right!”

“Listen, you ignorant little pinch-eyed Billy Graham convert! Can’t
you get it into your head that I’m God and I’m telling you to stop all
this ‘pre-emptive strike’ nonsense! Stop destroying Iraq! Stop
supporting that monster Sharon! Stop picking a fight with the only
other human beings on the planet that believe in Me! You’re leading
the world into unbelievable chaos and horror!”

“That’s enough, God! That’s just the sort of defeatist crap that I
won’t allow in the White House! Get out of here!”

“I cannot believe I’m hearing this, George.”

“Well you better start believing, God, because this is the new
reality. Don’tcha know that a recent Gallup poll shows that 42% of
Americans identify themselves as ‘born again’? That cuts across
Republicans and Democrats, rich and poor, white and black! This is a
real political power base, God, and you’d better believe it!”

“Look, all I’m asking is for you to show a little compassion to your
fellow human beings!”

“I’m not going to debate this with you, God! You’re beginning to sound
like you belong to the reality-based community!”

“What the hell does that mean?”

“Well by the ‘reality-based community’, we mean people who believe
that solutions emerge from their judicious study of discernible
reality.” “Sounds fair enough…”

“But, as one of my advisors told Ron Suskind of the Wall Street
Journal: ‘The reality-based community is not the way the world really
works any more. We’re an empire now and, when we act, we create our
own reality. And while you’re studying that reality – judiciously, as
you will – we’ll act again, creating other new ealities, which you
can study too, and that’s how things will sort out. We’re history’s
actors . . . and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we
do’.”

“You mean…you don’t give a damn, George?”

“I mean You speak through me, God, not the other way round! Is that
clear?”

“Yes, Mr President.”

P0ppy Garden, Kuala Lumpur

Poppy Garden, located below Passion is one of the hottest nightspot in town and a house of ill repute.

Where else can you find a girl grinding her thighs on a guy’s groin in public?

Well, overall Poppy Garden is a place to be. Great crowd, good music and less alcohol overdosed ladies and men puking all over the place.

There were plenty of girls too. So many until I went home smelling of girl’s perfume. If I have a wife at home, she would have beaten me up.

ivN gathered couple of his friends for a drinking session there. First, it was only couple of beers. Then a bottle of whisky came. Everyone managed to finish the bottle. After that, it was an alcohol-fuelled party.

It was fun getting to know some new people there. However, due to the loud music, we had hard time hearing what other people were saying. Ping had one of his moments with a girl..

Natalie: Hi I didn’t get your name!
Ping: I’m Ping.
(Loud music)
Natalie: What? Bitch?
Ping: …….
ivN: His name is Ping la, not Bitch.
Natalie: oh so sorry!!


Actually they were sharing a drink…

PassedOutBen was in action again. He passed out on the sofa for half an hour. Too bad we didn’t have cream or a marker pen.

No doubt I enjoyed the place even though they played R&B. I’ll give the place 8/10!
