On the recent NAP review that has been receiving much media buzz, I feel that its just another nonsense phase that will ultimately be just 'coffeeshop talk' and nothing more.
here is the document for your reading pleasure.
Nap Review
This, in my opinion, just can not happen as the people in our fair country has not enough buying power to purchase newer cars after their old and reliable set of wheel is deemed 'unfit for the road'. And the fact that cars above 15 years are subjected to inspections opens up a new can where corruption and more money to be raked from the people's already dry pockets.
The stupidest part is the 'Import of used parts to stop in 2011'. Ridiculous.
Where the hell are we going to find parts for our cars then? Where are our mechanics and workshops going to source for parts? How much would we have to pay for a European car's gearbox? An arm? A leg? A newborn baby? The used parts industry is a massive industry and I don't see this move actually working at all.
Yea....so my 'unreliable car' that sees more road than our fair country's favourite tin-can on wheels and sees less workshop time would have to be scrapped, forcing me to buy a 40,000+ ringgit piece of metal built with absolutely zero passion. The rich won't feel it. The people in the rural areas and smaller towns just got their asses handed to them.
again.

SONG: Nujabes - Luv Sic part 2 & part 3
Hope you have listened to the previous song that was posted awhile ago. That was the remix version which the lyrics basically talks about a relationship between two people. You can listen to it back here.
These two other songs are also by Nujabes which are 2 other mixes of the underlying tune of the 'luv sic' series. Part 2 is a narration about one and God, Part 3 is about life's ups and downs (this one is really very nice).
Just sit back and give it a listen. Make sure u have a drink in hand and a window to look out to the sky.
Luv Sic Part 2
Luv Sic Part 3
Add a soundtrack to your life and perfect it.

Some like it hot, some like it cold
People who defend themselves too much are actually more insecure than those who just don't give a damn.
Every human has ideals and it is good to champions those ideals if so you think its right. But going out on a whim and imposing a 'personal ideal' on every corner is a sign that the ideal is not so ideal after all. If it were ideal most people would be on the same page.
Unfortunately, it seems by far the society I live in today is champions mediocrity and superfluous ideals over the greater good, and the big picture. While the rest of the world moves over to answer questions on greenhouse effects and the amount of grains that can feed hungry mouths, we are still puzzled over the fact that some people like chillies and some don't. We still wonder why some people have one, two, three, or no Gods to pray to. We still harbour over the premise that children are as dumb as bars of soap and can't grasp meticulous ideas.
It will be long till our fair lands finally grow up. But till then, we all just need to exercise a little understanding and compromising.

Known for the wrong things
Within this 2 years alone our fair country had an amazing streak of negative attention. Awesome isn't it?
From weirded-out political party pooping thats better than any drama on telly, superb hypocritical statements that puzzle the minds of society, murders at most high degree, ailing reforms which would probably never see the light of day, and superb lying of the tongue which makes our countrymen look like the worst bunch of people on this side of the planet.
How are we going to dance on the world stage? How are we going to be a country of progress? The only thing we achieved in these years is being the laughing stock of people at coffeeshops and dinner tables.
Sad is our country. Sad sad sad.

Just because
If one can explain why they did something with general, factual, and logical reasons; it is not based on true emotions. Emotions are never based on logic, sense, and practicality. Emotions are withdrawn, intangible, whimsical, raw.
"I don't know why I did it, I did it 'just because'...."
Somethings are better left unexplained, unthoughtout, unpondered.
"I don't know why I did it, I did it 'just because'...."

SONG: Smoke and Mirrors
Love this line from this song.
"Who knows what tomorrow will bring
Maybe sunshine or maybe the rain"
