Why I don't like (the people on my) Facebook. LOL.

I like Facebook, for the fact that it reconnects me with old friends and keeps me updated. I can also play games when I'm bored with WoW. I can post pictures so that my family and friends can see how fat I've become. You know, there are a lot of reasons why I like Facebook.

But there are also reasons why I DON'T like Facebook. More of an annoyance, really.


ONE
News Feed Spam. 
I don't know whether it's your connection or you're just too fucking stupid to remove duplicate entries.






I'm sorry, I am not interested in whether you just beat your top friend record or not! So why the hell would you post it THREE TIMES IN A ROW? (there are actually more down the row).

Once is fine, but THREE TIMES???

I mean sure sometimes my connection is gay like that too where it automatically duplicates my entries, but then I'd have the decency to remove the fucking thing.




Easy right?

Try it next time. It's fun.


TWO
The Let-Me-Tell-You-About-My-Life type of people. Sure I love my friends, but oh come on. I don't fucking need to know what you had for breakfast or what you're doing now.





How fascinating! I've never tasted ANY of those. You sure are lucky.

If you had a maggot in your food and you fucking loved it or anything that DEEMED necessary to update, then sure, the pleasure's all yours. Otherwise, if you're just repeating your breakfast/lunch/dinner menu, who gives a shit. You might as well just take a picture of the damn menu.


THREE
 Invitations. Invitations. Invitations.



Before I get into this, lemme clarify something, it's fine if you invite me to your wedding/birthday/house warming/kenduri/your circumcision party (in fact, I welcome them). I get it, you're optimizing the usage of today's technology, kudos to you.

But I am talking about these kinda invitations (you know damn well which kind of invitations I'm talking about don't you):




And these too:





Um, how about a BIG FAT NO?

No, I am not interested to join and be your little groupie. No, I don't want to play another shitty game.

And why this shit bothers me so much is that, people won't stop fucking invite me if I don't accept them.

Of all the hundreds invitations that I received (trust me, I've ignored hundreds before), I believe there are only less than 10 which are LEGIT invitations (weddings and birthdays). The rest are either SPAM, or well, SPAM.



FOUR
Pillows war.

Like seriously.

I am getting more and more annoyed at this. No, not because you've hit me with an intangible-non existence pillows several times, but the fact that you're drowning my wall with your annoying notifications!

Over and over and over.




Fine, I'll play along too.





I win.


FIVE
Advertising, promoting, seeking for your MLM/Insurance victims. I have to say, this is perhaps the most annoying thing about Facebook.

I like my Facebook to be strictly personal/fun. It's a taint in the eyes to see all these people SPAMMING THE SHIT outta Facebook (like literally, spamming).

It's even more annoying when you get something like this:





No I will not call you because I am not interested. But thanks for tagging me, and half of your friends list. We truly appreciate having a fricking non-constructive award picture that has nothing to do with us in our photo albums.



SIX
Unnecessary photo-tag. I don't get it, why would you tag me if I'm not in the picture?





Just look at this picture. Are you subliminally saying I'm a millipede (or whatthefuck ever that is)? Do I look like a millipede? Do I smell like a millipede?

WHAT? WHAT WHAT??

Or how about this one:




Yeah, you know it. You've played this before. I know I have (but removed it a minute after this screen popped - no kidding). So what is your point exactly? This application is by far the most pointless time waster out there.

You know, you could at least delete it once you've seen the result.

It's annoying.

Super annoying.

But I must say, this is rather funny.





But I still wouldn't want this in my fricking album.


SEVEN
Facebook drama. Let it be couples arguments or friends drama.

Couples arguing back and forth publicly. I've thought of several possibilities on why they are not being discreet about their domestic problems:

1. They've got no other means of communication. Their phones have been barred or probably they smashed their phones when they threw at each other.

2. They can't see each other because they've been crying non stop for the past 2 weeks so they look super ugly now


3. They want to share their problems with other friends/the internet world so that they can get a pat on the back saying "You'll be fine, it was his/her fault in the first place".

4. They want people to feel sorry for them. Ehem, attention seekers.

5. They're just plain ignorant not caring about what other people has to go through upon seeing their silly quarrels


And this is even more laughable, someone who went apeshit when she/he was removed from her/his friends Top List.

Lawl.

You're kidding right?

Tell me, if I remove you from my list completely, would you go insane? No? Good. Done.


EIGHT
Friends of friends (of friends of friends) trying to add you. 

Er, who are you again?

Look just because you're a friend of my friend doesn't mean I AM your friend. I don't know you. So why the hell would you add me.

Oh, you wanna add me because I look hot in my avatar, why thank you, but you're still not getting any brownie point for that.


NINE
Massive notifications. One comment on one photo/status/wall and you will be notified for subsequent comments, FOREVER. And EVER.

It only takes 2 people to make it into a lifetime annoyance; once they start chatting. About something else that has nothing to do with the picture/status. And you gotta live with it. FOREVER. And EVER.





TEN
People who think Facebook is an open channel for them to talk about politics.

I don't like it when politics interfere with my personal life. Or with anything, really. I despise politics and I think politics are just a bunch of crap that people made up to get money and to control our lives.

But that's just what I think.

Facebook is for fun. So why in the world would you talk about politics? Do you discuss politics while making out? No. So shut the fuck up.






ELEVEN
What is up lately with these womens' conspiracy against the men? We are suddenly talking in codes.

None.
lawl. You are not wearing any bra.

How does THIS support the victims of breast cancer? By shoving it to their faces saying "HEY LOOK I AM WEARING A BRA CAUSE I'VE GOT BOOBS LOL".

That's stupid.


But I suppose that can't top this:







TWELVE
Frequent updates about your kids growth.

I understand that you're a proud new parent. I enjoy your child's pictures, updates, videos and such, but that doesn't mean I (or we) want to know every little step that your baby takes.

I am certainly not interested in reading your updates EVERY TIME your baby eats, walks, plays, yawns, poops, pees or talks.

Make a personal blog and share it to your immediate family. Just not on Facebook.



Ok. It's 2:26am and I am tired and my stomach is killing me. So I guess I'm gonna have to stop at the 12th reason.




Grumpy granny over and out.

Why white men love Asian women


I've been wanting to write about this for the longest time, tapi tak pernahnya rajin. Haha.

Before I proceed, do take note that this post is strictly (for) "fun"-ctional and I do not condone racism. Nor it is the place for me to brag about my ever-so-charming boyfriend, myself or our relationship.......wait, it IS the place for me to brag about us. HAHAHHAHAHAH.

Suck it up people.

So,


WHY WHITE MEN (specifically Don) LOVE ASIAN WOMEN (specifically me)

In order for me to write this post, I have to write it in a white man's POV kan (duh), otherwise it'd just sound like me trying to write a bogus story (which prominently leads to me being a huge liar who wants to credit myself hahah).

All these points came from him. His view and his thoughts. Though it is in his morale not to sound too judgmental, but he's an ass...soo.....pahem pahemmm la yeee.

I had to put on my reporter hat and interviewed him...while he was busy. So bayangkan aku kena ulang soalan beribu-ribu kali.

Sigh.

Oh well, anything for my beloved blog...hahahahahaha. Wah, aku telah menunjukkan ciri-ciri orang tidak ada life!

So here goes; a white man's reasons for liking us Asians:


ONE
Cultural differences. Perhaps this is the main reason why they're so infatuated with Asians. They don't have much of a culture (to be proud of ) as much as ours. All Asians, namely the Malaysian, Japanese, Korean, etc share similar culture in the way they do things with families. We've shown strong family values and family bonds.

Asian parents don't practice the 18-years-old-and-you're-out policy. Though this goes hand in hand with the young adults wanting to taste "freedom", but it is NOT required for them to leave home at such early age.

While over there in America you're considered a "loser" for still living under the same roof with the parents, it is quite the norm over here in Asia. We like to be basic-necessities-supported until we're either married or the situation requires us to be away from home.


TWO
Most American/white women are generally rude (he said "bitches" but I believe I should make it politically corrected). Since this came from a man who prefers Asian women, so this can be considered somewhat biased.

To his defense, majority of American/white women expect things to be thrown at them instantaneously just because they think they deserve everything....and yet they don't return the favor. The fingers are pointing at their parents, for raising them this way. They're most probably been raised in the "Yourself first, second and third, THEN you can consider others" way.

A relationship is a partnership, what good does it make if you're the only one that's pulling? Having these said, (most) Asian women avoid these key white women characteristics. It is rare to find Asian women with mid life crisis, prone to getting divorced (or have the infatuation with divorce) and they don't neglect their children.


THREE
Subconsciously, this is one of the key reasons why white men adore Asian women; Asian women are petite. Towering and lanky women don't turn (most) men on that much. Being big and tall represent dominance and men would still like to remain being the Alpha one.

I'd like to be able to pick you up and not having to look up to kiss you - Don M.
Though Don doesn't have a preference in sizes (duh, look at me), so this particular point is talking about the general white men's adoration towards Asian women.


FOUR
Asian women age well. A lot of older Asian women don't look too terribly bad, as compared to old white women. A 70+ year old Asian woman could be mistaken for being 60+ while a 50+ year old white woman could be mistaken for being 60+. Asian women retain our young looks without the help of botox, yoga or trendy diet, we just have a hearty appetite for ulam-ulam kampung.

Ugly Asians are as rare as beautiful white people - Don M.


FIVE
Since video games made its' first debut in Japan and most games reflect Asian girls (Japanese specifically), it has been instilled in the lives of these young American boys the thoughts of having one Asian partner. And when they finally saw one in real life, they'd be thinking "OH SHE'S LIKE THE HEROINE IN THE FINAL FANTASY GAME. I GOTTA HAVE HER".

Now who says video games bring bad influence? Hahaha....


SIX
Asian women are faithful, hard working, honorable, feminine and can kick asses with kung fu. 

Hahhahahah....ok this one is self-added. He didn't say this, but I'm sure he'd agree! (Or I'll make him agree) Hahaha!



So there you go, Don's 5 points on why he likes Asian women.

After having all these said, I take back my point about this being a racist entry. This is not racism, this is dating preferences.

Cara - cara memikat lelaki kacak tanpa baju.....kali ni tak tipu!

Hahahaha..tergelak kat tajuk sendiri sekali lagi.

Oklah, hari tu dah tipu, title je bombastik (eh, bombastik ke setakat lelaki tak berbaju? hahaha), tapi entry macam sampah.

Kali ni betul betul punya, sebab saya kan baik hati lagi pemurah...(hahah tak de kena mengena).

Anyway, sebelum saya tersasar topik lagi, nah, amik ni.




HAHAH BEST KAN.

What?

Kata mau lelaki kacak tanpa baju...tu haaaaa. HAHAHAHAHAH

OK memang aku biased, sebab pada pandangan saya, Don amatlah kacak.

Dreamy dreamy dreamy.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

Wah, aku ketawa tak hingat dunia okkk. HAHAHAH

See, I wasn't lying.


Ok dah tu je. BAI.


Eh, sori, memang kali ni entry sampah jugak, dan tak der tips untuk memikat lelaki kacak tanpa baju, sebab aku sendiri pon tak tau macam mana nak pikat lelaki kacak tanpa baju!!

Saturday, January 23, 2010

Cara - cara memikat lelaki kacak tanpa baju.

 LOL@Title sendiri.

Ok memang entry kali ni tak der kena mengena langsung dengan lelaki kacak. Siapa suruh klik! Haaaa, gatal. Hahahahaha...

Anyywaayysss, I do have a lot of pictures nak kena upload, tapi malas. Cause I know Streamyx won't be able to support my massive upload. Bongok gila. Bayar je mahal mahal, tapi service macam taik.

Anyway, dah lama aku tak lukis comic kan? Tu lah...sebab mastermind dia tak der (ehem, Don), so tak der event yang kelakar berlaku. I'm not funny enough to create comic sendiri. Aku tukang lukis boleh lah.

Oh speaking about lukisan, I showed mak my doodle, ok, sebenarnya dia tanya, and she requested me to lukiskan dia wallpaper untuk PC rumah tu..alamak. Pastu siap demand lagi...dia nak yang bunga bunga atau permandangan.

Tapi disebabkan saya sungguh malas...hahahaha, dan tak reti lukis, nah:


Hahaha, ni baru buat 10 mins tadi. Semua guna auto shape dari Photoshop (except castle tu..sebab tu bengkang bengkok)..hahaha


Hahahaha, memang tak ikhlas betul. Ok lah mak, nanti lah Alia lukis lain.

But I don't know how to lukis permandangan ah...katun katun tau lahhh.

Akhir kata, sila lah ambil gambar ini sebagai pengganti wallpaper permandangan/bunga-bunga...



  
"Zug the Zombie"


 Muka monster ni pon boleh la kannn. Permandangan jugakkk.. hahaha

Sekian.



Ok, update kali ni memang tak der point. What the hell, perlu ke update jugak kalau cakap merepek..hahaha.
 
Cacat gila perempuan ni.

They don't want me because I'm too good. WTF.

Ok, seperti yang tak semua orang tahu, I went for an interview with this company (where my parents are/used to work - so kepada sesiapa yang tahu, shush shush ye).

Sure lah I was called for an interview because my parents ada kenalan (sebab nak masuk kena ada cable besar). But it doesn't matter how besar and panjang your cable is, but once you're in the meeting room, it's all up to you lah kan.

So payah lah sikit kalau anak anak Dato' ni di "recommended" kan but bila kena gertak sikit dlm interview, terus meleleh/do not perform well during the interview.

So anyway, back to my point, I was called. Tapi bila dalam meeting room ni, it was all up to how I conduct myself lah kan. Since I'm technically an experienced professional, I treated these panel professionally lah kan. I treated them on par with me lah. Tak de lah aku anggap diorg ni sungguh superior sampai kena sujud. You get what I mean tak?

It was a group interview; 5 orang sekali gus.

Sure thing, not a problem for me.

I really did my best tau. I asked a lot of questions because they didn't tell us/me enough. Sebab pada pandangan aku, a job interview is for the employer to know you and for you to know the employer/position as well kan?

I made the whole session more interactive, rather than just one sided. 

In my group tu, aku sorang je yang bersuara lantang, spik gud inggeris (sampai kena puji on the spot okkk, jangan memainnn haha) and aku berani bertanya. Yang lain macam takut takut, terketar ketar. I admit lah, aku pon terketar ketar jugak, but alhamdulillah, I managed to control it. Tahap confidence level tinggi beb. Hahaha

They didn't ask me a lot of questions...actually the only question they asked was "Tell us about yourself". Tu je.

What the hell.

Apahal diorg tanya candidates lain lebih-lebih?

Oleh disebabkan they didn't ask me, I had to ask them lah.

Logik lah kan!! Soalan yang aku tanya tu pon logik ok!! Bukan lah soalan bimbo macam "Encik dah makan??". 

It's to be expected lah kalau candidates tanya soalan kan. Lagi banyak soalan lagi bagus kan!

So to cut the story short (sebenarnya banyak lagi yang berlaku masa dalam meeting tu), a day after the interview, one of the panels jumpa bapak aku. Haha, rupa rupanya sebelum interview tu, my dad dah kenalkan dgn his friend ni, and his friend ni pulak jadi one of my interview panels.

Sungguh aku tak perasan. I have a bad memory btw.

Anyways, so si panel ni pon jumpa my dad. He told my dad yang he interviewed me and he said I am one of the best candidates (see I wasn't lying when I said I was good..hahaha). He even told my dad yang they (meaning the whole panels) were intimidated by me!!

Because I asked questions!!

WHAT???

Wait, the word he used was "challenged".

I did not challenge them. I simply ASKED them. Politely, and PROFESSIONALLY.

So bapak aku pon terkejut (cause I oredy told him everything - what went on during the interview), and apak pon tanya lah lagi, in what sense yang aku challenged diorang.

So si panel ni pon bagitau lah yang among all the candidates yang diorg interviewed, tak der sorang pon tanya soalan soalan bombastik yang required them to think. And selama ni, tak der sorang pon candidate yang treated them on par - selama ni semua orang anggap diorg superior, angguk angguk kepala walaupon tak paham/tak agree.

But not me.

Yer lah, kalau aku tak paham ke, tak agree ke, need more clarification ke, buat apa aku angguk kepala macam orang dungu. Mesti lah tanya balik kan!!

I mean aku treated diorg as a professional lah. From a professional to another professional. I didn't let them make me feel small, I had self-control and though I respect them as a future employer, but I didn't let them make me feel intimidated.

And because of that, they felt "challenged"!!

Apakahhhhhhhhh.

Oh jadi selama ni diorg interview candidates macam main belasah je lah?

Unstructured betul.

I mean what I asked them tak der lah bombastik mana pon, I asked because I didn't know, betul tak.

Sakit hati ok! I mean he admitted it, yg the rest of the panels cakap I'm a good candidate!! Abis tuuu, what's the fricking problem?!?!?

Wah wah wah, gila mengamok ok.

Ye lah, sapa tak mengamok, just because I posed a managerial trait, diorg dah gelabah. Pastu tanak hire me.

Tell me lah, company mana yang tanak employees dia menyerlah. Company ni macam nak orang yang jenis kepala-angguk jee. Diorg nak yes-sir man je ke??

Apa takut aku nanti masuk fast-track then terus jadi boss diorg ke??

I have proved myself that I can conduct myself well, I know my subject matter, I am confident, I can communicate, I'm professional and I can retain self-control under pressure.

ARE THOSE NOT THE QUALITY THEY'RE LOOKING FOR IN AN EMPLOYEE???


p/s: This is a HUGE GLC company.

p/ss: Oh, I'm now in the recommended list btw and I shall hear from the HR in 3 months. Tapi takut jugak babe, anything can happen kan! PLEASE DOA KAN UNTUK SAYA. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE :(

Siapa bilang gadis Melayu tak menawan?

I know I've made a post about this a long, long, long, long, long time ago. Tapi kali ni rasa nak mengeluarkan unsur unsur naga sakti lagi sekali.

What is it with us dengan keindahan paras rupa? Physically speaking lah ni.

You know lah I have this picture of Don and I as my phone's wallpaper.


Padahal dua-dua muka tonyok....oklah, I looked good, but he looked ridiculous! Hahahahaha...(sempat kutuk, what the hell.. hahaha)

And iPhone kan screen dia gabak, so bila aku letak atas meja (after used - so screen masih belum gelap) orang keliling agaknya akan tertengok jugak phone aku, maybe diorg nak fikir "Wah, berlagak sial si Alia ni, nak menunjuk-nunjuk lah iPhone dia tu", tapi agaknya fikiran keji diorg tu terbantut bila ternampak our picture.

Pastu mesti lah tanya "Ehh, who's that guy???" dengan nada eksaited.

And of course lah I replied "Oh, tu my boyfriend, soon to be my husband". Hahah..ok memang keji jawapan aku, abis tu, dah tanya, aku jawab lah dengan sepenuh hati kan.

Tapi I noticed, setiap kali je lepas aku cakap he's my bf, terus muka diorg berubah, macam terkejut.

"Your bf??? Wahh, you have a mat salleh bf ahh??"


Tersentap okayyy.

No, bukan sebab aku jeles sebab diorg cakap dia hensem ke cute ke apa., but sentap cause I know at the back of their mind, diorg tak expect si gemok hodoh ni ada bf.

I don't like ok. From their reactions je aku boleh speculate macam macam.

Do I have to be berkulit putih??
Do I have to be berhidung mancung??
Do I have to be super skinny macam super model??
Do I have to be pretty??
DO I HAVE TO BE ON PAR WITH HIM TO HAVE HIM??

I admit, aku ni bukannya lawa mana pon, but it doesn't give you to rights to judge me incapable of attracting a guy.

Cara diorg jawab tu serupa jugak macam aku cakap "Wah, itu kereta kau ke?? Kau mampu jugak ye beli kereta??? Kagum"

You get it now?

Subliminally, I'm saying you're poor.

Sama jugak in this context, subliminally you're saying I'm ugly.

Kenapa kita pentingkan paras rupa instead of hati seseorang itu? We take pride on their good looks, and ignore their perwatakkan.

I might have an unattractive appearance, but you don't know what's inside me do you? Obviously I'm beautiful inside since I have someone to share his life with me.

Lagi satu, why is it kalau perempuan Melayu yang bercouple dengan non-Melayu/Malaysian orang akan expect you to have a sexy/whorish appearance or you're somewhat a mixed (races) product?

Kenapa, you think orang orang yang muka separa-Angelina Jolie-separa-Sharifah Aini je ke yang mampu attract partner berlainan kaum? (motif Sharifah Aini?? Haha)

Memang lah muka aku Melayu tulen, memang lah aku tak pakai mini skirt nampak panties, but just because I don't have all these 'traits' doesn't mean I can't have an international partner (International gituuu hahaha)...or any guy.

It's how you conduct yourself. Kalau muka kau orang boleh mati tengok sebab lawa sangat, tapi perangai macam taik, apa guna.

Beauty deteriorates.

Nanti kau dah tua, dah lah perangai hodoh, muka pon hodoh.

If you're with someone because for that one reason; their beauty, then you're a fricking idiot.


Ok memang hari ini perasaan membara-bara. Sila abaikan. Now I'm hungry.

Accent, Art and Colors. Wah, tiga topik berlainan.

Oklah, lately ni saya rasa teramat malas nak update blog....ok, tipulah, memang selama ni tak pernah rajin....unless lah kalau hari tu aku jumpa lelaki hensem tanpa baju kenyit kenyit mata kat aku, tu mesti laju je aku update. Haha...

Anyway, this is going to be a short update, sebab I want to nap before I have to wake up in the middle of the night and study for my upcoming interview. Alone. Haha, mesti parents aku ingat anak dia gila ke, cakap sensorang malam malam hari.

Ok tipu, memang selalunya diorg dengar aku cakap sensorang on mic, sebab they cannot hear Don on the other side. If I put him on speakers, mesti bergegar Malaysia sebab semua orang berlari ke rumah aku nak tau siapa punya suara yang lunak dan kacak ituuuu.

HAHAHAHAHAHAH

I know I should be studying dan prektis my Inggeris (and lose the accent tipu). Speaking about accent, how ahhh. Ni bebetul mintak pandangan, bukan aku sengaja nak buat menggedik kenkonon nak cakap dengan accent habuk, but everytime bila perkataan keluar, mesti terkeluar dengan accent habuk tu sekali. I don't want my "future" employers to anggap me sebagai perempuan yang berlagak gila cakap berabuk tapi kerja pemalas. You know what I mean. Dah lah accent berterabur, sekejap American, sekejap Malaysian, sekejap British...hahah.

I know lah some of you manusia dogol memang dengki, cakap aku mengada-ngada nak cakap dengan "fake accent". You know what, you boleh pergi mati. Kau tak suka sebab kau tak boleh buat. HAR HAR HAR.


Wah, tiba tiba emo si gedik ni.

Anyway, I know Don dah banyak influenced me sebab hari hari cakap dengan dia. And everytime aku cakap contohnya "can't" dengan accent Brit (sebab kita kan ikut British syllabus), dia perbetulkan cara aku. He said if I cakap "can't" dengan accent British depan family dia, nanti diorg ingat aku cakap "cunt". Hhaha...

Bayangkan bila adik dia cakap dengan aku:

Her: Alia, can I have your iPod?
Me: You CUNT....

PANG. Kena pelempang sakti di muka.

Hahahahhaha..

Ok, memang aku merepek dah. Whatever.



These few days instead of belajar bersungguh-sungguh (wah, bersungguh-sungguh lagi tu), I spent my days doodling benda yang ntah bukan bukan. But hey, ehem *clears throat*, this is ART.

Art means rubbish. Random things that you put together that doesn't make sense but people still appreciate it (or pretend to) because they don't want to look like an idiot.

I'm sorry, though I am art-inclined, but I just can't appreciate stupid things macam contengan hingus. What the fuck is that. I can do the same with my right foot (I'm left handed).

Anyway, ye, ini bukan contengan hingus ok, ni memang sah-sah doodle. I did this for my sister cause she loves colors macam badut antarabangsa.



"Sea, Ground and Sky"



"Our World"

Adik aku cakap, macam dalam kedai punya quality. Wah, itu ialah satu pujian ikhlas dari dia sebab dia tu memang ngok sikit, kedekut pujian. HHAHA.

Ok, nak tidur kejap.
