Damn, I just typed out a nice piece and my computer has just screwed up like the world.

What goes up must come down because life sucks, not blows.

Handphones have become a necessity these days, its almost compulsory for all employees to have one and its very common to see school kids owning one. But behind this widespread use of this commodity, there lurks an evil conspiracy that threatens our very lives of the users of handphones. 2 years ago, no one has even suspected anything about handphones being capable of emitting radiation until it screws your brains up, but now there are so many articles and products on the subject that it almost becomes an obessesion. There are products that are able to absorb radiation, and there are detectors of radiation. Some are fraud and some have some basis behind it all, but what is the truth?

Today, I don't see handphones posing as a health threat to people. Although there are people constantly glued to handphones, its is very unlikely that anything would develep, and those reports of increasing headaches and migraines are highly skeptical. There definately is proof that radiation is emited by handphones, but to what extend does this affect a human being? From what I see, placing a radiation emitting device next to an organ which many people hardly use is not really a health hazard.

There has not be any concrete proof that handphones are the cause of headaches that people claim they suffer, probably its all in their minds. I've known people who tend to show signs of diseases that they haven't even contracted and this is a sign of mental sickness. Its like think to yourself, "I am having this killer headache!" every day and one day true enough you are gonna give yourself this headache. Its the power of the mind. Its a psychological disease. But I am not disproving that handphones are not a factor in these headaches.

Handphones are like cigarettes. 50 years ago cigarette companies tell you its safe to smoke. 50 years later, you are down with lung cancer in a hospital wheezing and suing the cigarette companies for millions of dollars. Its like this with handphones. If it ever comes down to the fact that handphones do cause cancer, I'm sure everyone would be suing for damages, from as little to migraines and brain tumours. So its not really a lose-lose situation, but more of a win-winslightlyless situation. If handphones do not cause cancer, hey, you were not stupid enough to listen to what the "researchers" say, and if it does, you can sue the handphone companies and retire and go on that vacation that your salary has never been able to pay, no matter how long you work.

The world is screwed.

Politeness is a sure sign of a gentleman.

Sorry, I'm not one. By now if you have been reading my post, I'm sure you have concluded that I am a loud mouth attention seeking bastard. I would just like to vent my anger on a certain social course that I must dedicate 6 hours to in 3 days. Now 6 hours is not much, 6 hours is enough to finish the first 3 acts of Diablo II, 6 hours is enough to mug a few chapters, 6 hours can mean a lot to a person who doesn't have it.

I am rather pissed off with this particular course because I thought it would be over last year... It certainly sucks knowing that you are pushed into something that you have no interest in. This time I am going to "learn" how to speak and use the English language properly and with manners. I could spew vulgarities right now and not prove my point, but now I would like show that this is now obsolete. Who now needs to take a message properly? Not even secretaries. Its a simple phone conversation. I don't need to identify myself, I don't need to leave a message. Technology has put it so that each person is connected directly. If I want to call Icarus, I don't call his house and speak to his dad or mom. I call his handphone and we talk. We don't need to identify each other because we have caller ID. It makes speaking politely like, "He's not in at the moment, may I take a message?" totally stupid, inefficient, pointless and an utter waste of time.

Communication skills are essential no doubt, but we are so brisk that we have no time for casual talk and manners. Phone bills cost, I am not going to spend 5 minutes asking and making sure that the message of the person gets through. I am just going to ask that person to call the intended recipient's handphone or call back later. Save paper, save trees, save ink, save water and save a lot of other stuff.

Time is essential. Politeness uses up time. Think of how much you save if a conversation goes like this:

"Hello, this is Mr. . I am looking for . Is he available at the moment?"
"I'm sorry, he's not in at the moment. Would you like me to take a message for you?"
"That would be fine. Could you tell him that Mr. called and would like to inquired about his car."
"I didn't get that the first time, could you please repeat it slowly?"
"I would like to inquire about his car."
"Inquire-about-his-car. Yes I got it."
"Thank you very much."
"You are welcome"
"Good bye"
"Good bye"

Now that is a typical, polite, well taken conversation. Now look at this one.

"Is here?"
"No, call his handphone"
*click*

Comparing time, efficiency and money wasted on the phone conversation, clearly being brisk and fast is better. If this is an unsatisfactory example look at IRC for today. How many people use complete sentences. It is surprising that English has been brutally savaged for speed and efficiency, but as long as information gets across then its worth it. It doesn't cut out the meaning so why bother.

Maybe the only thing I would learn from this is how to say, "You are a stupid, ignorant, money-grubbing bitch." very politely.

Minds of the world unite into one collective consciousness.

No, that was not a saying to the Borg, because the Borg only possess one consciousness, and the word collective is hardly any use after all, all Borgs, excluding whoever is leading them, has no consciousness. Don't contradict me by giving me some crap about Captain Piccard being aware of his surroundings when he was assimilated. He still had no say in that supposedly "collective consciousness", his will was robbed.

Today, I think I would like to address the problem of inter-school rivalry, hence the "supposedly collective consciousness" part. Schools are just a gathering of a bunch of smart people who somewhere along the line get taught something so that they become more stupid along the way. That way, the school can get those people to do whatever they want, which includes running for the school, doing sports for the school, joining competitions for the school, art for the school, writing for the school, projects for the school. Almost everything for the school except slacking, which makes slacking a very un-encouraged activity. That is why all slacking clubs in school are not official, almost illegal, disorganised and underground activities. You also don't get CCA points for being the chairman of the slacking club.

I think school rivalry is very stupid. Think about it, you have to be rivals with other students from a school which you are gonna be in for 4 years. If you continue to be rivals after that period of time, you are a very impressionable idiot, because what I tell you to do, you just do it and continue to do it. And what is the point? After all you may end up working together and then again there is no point of continuing this stupid rivalry that the school has indirectly instilled in you. And if you do forget about this rivalry after you leave school and become best friends with the other guy from the other school, didn't you just waste four years of not knowing this other guy because you were so engrossed in competing with that guy?

I hate people who come up to me and say that their school is better than mine. I don't care and I don't care why you think that way. I'm almost certain that you are not thinking. Seriously you must be a big idiot to say that because there are many aspects you can compare from. I might as well compare by saying the more rubbish you talk, the smarter you are. So, I would be a pretty smart guy right? Since I can say all this crap bow down before my superior intellect.

School spirit is something I cannot comprehend. One reason is because I am a selfish, self-centred, egotistical maniac only engrossed with my welfare and lashing out at the world for being so screwed up. It could be also it doesn't exist. Ask yourself, what makes your school so great? Why bother rivalring with another school just to antagonize each other and cause friction. Its stupid. Just plain stupid. I say, screw this rivalry, screw the school, you are only there for 4/5 years and its not worth it.

Schools don't really promote this rivalry thing, but they hope that it would spur the school to defeat the rivals in whatever area it is, so its good for them. Now don't you feel used? I mean its like a prejudice, last time people were prejudiced against the blacks, so they would oppress them and when it comes to choosing between a white man and a black man, it was a simple choice. You are simply being prejudiced against another school because of their school standing or sporting achievements.

Stop school rivalry. Its childish and immature. Now these so-called school spirits or "supposedly collective unconsciousness" would want to hunt me down for putting forth my thoughts and subverting their power base. But I'm safe anyway where I am. No wait, what are they doing here?!? No! Nooooo..... "Prepare to be Assimilated. Resistance is futile."

Part 3 of 3

I'm sorry, but to some people, I am rather mean, but in all, I can say I'm a nice guy. Its just that I want to share my opinions, and its nice to know that some people are reading them.

I've nothing against divas, they can sing, they have powerful voices and they can carry a tune. I guess what is most important in a singer is the fact that they can sing, not what they look like, not how they dress, or how much flesh they decide to flash. That's why they are singers. Divas have a sense of regality and dignity when they glide onto stage to sing powerfully and strongly that could move people. Such talent is rare, unlike pop bands, you can get them easily, just with a lot of publicity and songwriters. You don't need tits and buns to be a diva, which you do to become a teen idol.

Now finally I have decided to conclude this 3-part episode, by saying that there are other various kinds of music to listen to. One of the reasons of the popularity of pop music is the fact that they keep playing it on radio. So when you have been exposed to nothing else but pop music, you sort of gain the liking for it. From there, then you start playing more of it, then you request more of it on radio, then more people would become addicted to it and from there the pop-mania spreads. I can't blame radio stations because its a vicious cycle, and the only way to break it is to be different.

Today, rock is dead. Rock and roll is a thing of the past and people think, "That's so 80's." Truly some of the most inspirational and talented pieces are played by a bunch of guys with long hair shouting over the microphone about morbid topics. Today, there are other pieces of music like alternative, metal, heavy metal, dance, techno, not just pop, pop, pop. Before actually listening to boybands, try buying a funky CD on some obscure band that you have never heard before and give it a try. Or if you don't want to waste money, that's what mp3s are for. Its not just music, its a way to introduce you to other kinds of music. There is nothing to lose, and much to gain, firstly you listen to a larger diversity, making your experience not just limited to boybands. Secondly there's no guarantee that you won't like it. Thirdly you don't have to follow the majority. Lastly you won't be labelled by people like me as those who blindly follow the crowd and bandwagon mentality.

Pop is stale, and over hyped. I find it disturbing I keep seeing pop music on TV and on the radio. Perhaps there are those programs that would give others a chance, but why pop? I question you people, why pop? Listen around you, there are many kinds of music, just why pop? Why is it the most popular? Why does everyone listen to it? What makes it worth listening to? As I am unable to explain the last question, I arrive that the conclusion that it is not worth listening to and one should move on. What we listen to today would ultimately one day become the oldies, I guess we should enjoy other stuff and give other bands their dues.

Part 2 of 3

Hey, yeah, that's it for boybands. We all know they suck big time, I have already given reasons and if you don't want to accept them or if you find them flawed, hey that's your problem. I am trying to tell you what a big fraud they are so blame me for my good intentions.

Now its on to dumb blondes singing on stage. Seriously they are no different from boybands, they still suck big time and they do lack singing ability. I will use examples here because any reference I make, you will surely guess it. After all how hard is it to know which dumb blonde signed up for a Pepsi Cola advertistment? When this particular teen idol first made her appearance, I thought to myself, hey, that's a bimbo trying to sing! Yeah! Now that is something for laughs. So I sat back, and endured the horrible chantings of something about hitting someone again and again. I thought that was a rather bimbo song, because of the lyrics and the music clip. How hard can it be? I mean, you see a dumb blonde prancing around baring her waist and doing gyrating moves.

Now we see that same bimbo making a lot of other supposedly hits. The first thing I said to myself, was that this bimbo can't sing. I must admit that she has a very friendly personality and that may be the reason for her rising amongst the rest of her kind. You cannot attribute her success to anything else. I don't think her songs and singing is that great. In fact, I think she sings like she has a blocked nose. But that's for that.

However I can take one bimbo, I mean, what's life without a few bimbos? Then there comes other bimbos to cash in on the success, or follow the path of the first bimbo. So they show up with great dance moves, suave bodies baring their sexy mid-waist, and portray a very girlish, young and 'innocent' look. Man, this is too much, where's the originality? Enough with the bimbos! Bring on something else! Its all about eye-candy you see. You guys are just out there to oogle at these bimbos. And the girls just want to drool over the guys. I don't mind having posters of them, but heck, don't give them songs to sing, they ruin it.

Now, I would like to point out something that I've read in the newspapers recently. It was about another bimbo who was recently accused of being racist due to her lyrics. She defends herself by saying that the lyrics were written by another rapper for her. Hah! That is the result of not writing your own songs. Even if those bimbos bought the copyrights for the songs, how can you sing something others felt? That is why they are bimbos. N'duh.

So here I have explained what bimbos are so there is good reason no to by songs they have sung or merchandise they have autographed. We only love them for their bodies. There's nothing else beneath that bimbo exterior is there?

Part 1 of 3

Yeah, now here I am devoting three full days, or actually 30 minutes each day for three days, to slam boy bands and pop groups and anyone who is a Britney Spears wannabe. You must think that I have no life to actually slam them and give them all the attention in the world, but you are so wrong. You see if I manage to convince 0.1% of you people out there that there is something wrong with pop groups, then technically, their earnings would drop by 0.1% and their fan base drops by 0.1%, and hopefully this 0.1% would also spread the word and together we will topple those boybands from the throne of the charts! Then I will rule the world!!! Wait, wrong blog.

Firstly, I should say why boybands deserve to be hated. You, as an audience, are out there looking for music. Now what a person wants in music, is there must be a sense of rhythm and beat, and something that can hold a tune right? That is the most important thing. It must sound nice. Secondarily, the lyrics apply to your life. Not really the best reason, but this is how some people feel about music. Tertiarily, there is the originality of music. Basically we can measure how we like songs by these three criteria. No doubt there are many more but this is for now.

Do we agree that boy bands sound nice? The singing? The tune? The music? You see there is the same rhythm and beat that is played in almost every song. It sounds a bit the same to me doesn't it? Something catchy, something happy, something nice. Think about it, its soft, its soothing, it sucks... Man, once you hear a pop song, you heard a lot. The tune is just catchy, and sticks in your head and you find it very easy to hum along with it. Most pop songs are like that, the drum beat is slow, the music playing is slow, and the singing is soothing. I find that disturbing. It all sounds the same. BUT I'll give it to boybands for now, they managed to put out something that people want to listen. However, it has come to mind that some of these boybands are unable to sing. I can give names, but then again it would be slander on the Internet, so I shall refrain. Wait, if these guys can't sing, how come they're popular? Beats me. I think they lip sync, or tweak their voices. It is all possible and we do know of boybands who can't sing.

Secondly, we got to really point out that the lyrics do NOT apply to our lives AT ALL. No way do we break up all the time and sob about a girl and sing about her. Trust me, for a guy, we usually go ballistic and lash out at the nearest thing. Other times we don't care and go drink. C'mon, who takes it that hard enough to sing for a girl? Seriously, its a joke. I mean it. In an album of a boyband you'll probably see a song about a guy never letting a girl go, and the next track, guess what? Sung by the same guy about breaking up. Man... how fickle this is? When we listen to songs, do we actually try to guess what it means? What are they trying to say to us? Or do we just imagine about ourselves and the perfect guy/girl?

One more thing is that the fan base for boy bands is teenagers, no doubt about that, so why the heck do they sing about love? Let me put it to you directly, does a teenager know anything absolutely about love? No. Does a teenager fall in love? They think they do. Does a teenager understand what's it like to be in love? Heck if I know. Love is something sacred, something learnt, something understood together, and here we have boy bands prancing around like bunny rabbits serenating about how it feels to be in love and those fans "love" those boybands for it.

Lastly, it really disturbs me that we give the boybands credit for the songs. They did nothing but sing the words written by others. They probably liked it, that's why they chose it and sing it for others to listen to. We don't say, "Hey, that song is written by who and who, you know, the one sung by that crappy boyband? Yeah that's the one." We just say that boyband's latest hit. Why is it their album? Why is it their songs? All I know is that they purchased the copyrights for it, and then who cares? The songwriters get paid a bit and the boybands rake it the profits with their producers. What does a person know about a song he is singing unless he wrote it? How does he know how the writer felt at the moment? How does he actually convey the message to us if he doesn't know what is he singing?

Also they are not in any way musically inclined. They don't play a musical instrument, they don't know the difference between a quaver and a minim, they wouldn't know a scoresheet if it hit them in the face. All I see is a bunch of overhyped youths who portray a boyish look, and jump around trying to look cool, directed by an expert choreographer. Then they sing something and the studio edits their voices and viola! A new boyband has entered the market. There is no effort on their part to get where they are now. I'm sure they are going to say concerts are tough, touring is tough, but what effort did they make to get there? A songwriter probably spends more effort writing a song, than them getting to where they are. Just record a song, then they are qualified for the charts. The image is also something that really disturbs me. Boys singing, hence boybands. A bunch of no talent losers jumping and prancing around, and "singing" (I use this word loosely) to us all. Man its all eye candy. Just for looks. I'll like to see any boyband 50 years down the road, and see if they can still produce "quality" music like they used to now.

Seriously boybands are not talented. They aren't worth the money you spend the CDs on. Boybands have no impact on our lives, they do not inspire us, they do not make us think, they do not make us feel more relaxed. If you hear a guy singing about him losing a girlfriend, you are gonna start wondering where's your girlfriend. Then where does it all end up? You are gonna feel sad with yourself. So why bother listening to them?

Next I will try to explain the bandwagon mentality and why a lot of people likes boybands... till then support me and keep those constructive critisms coming!

Yes its Friday!!!

Good day peons,

It is not such a good day after all when you wake up and find yourself slaves of the world. That is why people don't take reality very well, so they just become either workaholics or insane people. Which roughly accounts for everyone in the world already. You all must be sick and tired of me blasting the world with my prejudices and my hatred, but then again, the world never seems to realize, hence I must keep doing it.

One of my lecturers came up with an interesting topic that we are the lost generation. Lost as in we have no sense of identity and no purpose in the world. Today, Internet has broken down so many barriers, that we ourselves are unfazzled and could not understand certain elements like racism. Although it is great in a sense, we have also lost a sense of our culture, historical background and tradition. Not that its all that bad, but now we do not know where to go in life. Everything seems planned out for us doesn't it? We are like some puppets with someone pulling on all the strings. One thing about being the lost generation is that we are so lost that we haven't begun to live.

Think of how life was with a purpose. I know how some people think, like when you get a job, you get a family, you get a house and car, and what next? This what next question has befuddled many of us and many of us are unable to look further into the future. That is what the next generation is. Not the millenium generation, not the electronic generation, just a screwed-up lost generation. We ourselves have no vision, we expect everything to happen in front of us immediately. This is the cause of the speeding up of life using almost instant stuff like instant noodles, television, microwave oven, and the computer. When we turn on the tube, we expect something there immediately. When we use the microwave, we expect it to be cooked fast. When we are on the Internet, we want speed and bandwidth. This influences us whether we like it or not. We are the fastest generation there ever is, where cars and computers are pushed to the limits to let us get where we want faster. We have become impatient and intolerant and anything we do, there must be instant results or we give up doing it. Somehow this has to change.

Today I happened to watch Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within. I am still trying to absorb the movie, I feel that it is that big a thing. No wonder the critics just shoot it down as a crappy movie. They don't happen to see it from the SquareSoft point of view. SquareSoft is the company that came up with the Final Fantasy. You understand it from that point of view and you see what the story has to say. Its like all Final Fantasy games where the world is on the brink of death and humans must resurrect it. I won't spoil it further from there. I have yet to comment on the film, so until then, lets leave it. The computer graphics is stupendous that I must keep reminding myself that its fake. Yes, if you look hard, you would notice that there are flaws, but you'll miss a lot of the other stuff that way. There is nothing to say on the acting. Everything is perfect except for the storyline. I still wonder about the storyline. I think that Aki Ross was just the babe there to attract all computer geeks with starved social lives. Definate watch if you are an FF fan.

There are many kinds of people in this miserable petri dish in which we call the world. There are hostile people, there are warm people, there are givers and there are takers, there are rich and there are poor. Well for the benefit of the ignorant, you should start to think what role you play in this world; are you an asshole or not?

An asshole is a noun commonly misused by people as an asshole refers to your rectum in which crap comes out of. There for, calling a person an asshole means that you only get crap from that person, e.g. stupid thoughts, no contribution to the team, words used incorrectly. So how can we identify an asshole according to this guidelines? Asshole is just someone who talks sh*t. Lots of it. Almost incontrollably like diarhoea. And perhaps it has deeper meaning that the person is full of sh*t and has sh*t for brains, after all it had to come from somewhere right? Speaking of coming from somewhere, this person must have been rather unimportant to be an asshole, so we can take it that this person is a great waste of resources.

Being an asshole requires certain finesse that even I cannot fully understand, hence some cases of assholism may not be documented. One clear sign of an asshole is the way that person speaks. Does sh*t fly out of the person's mouth? Is it hard for you understand what the person is saying? Is the person prone to say stupid irrelevant things? Does the person talk without thinking? Is the person capable of intellectual argument? Or does he/she back down and accuse you of being superior in linguistic skills? By simply answering yes to any of the above questions you may have a potential asshole.

Also another way of identifying an asshole is their actions. Do they attract attention to themselves by making loud and rude noises? Do they care about others? Do they make messes all over the place and then wipe their hands clean and leave others to take the blame? Are they selfish? Are they capable of thinking of others? Are they capable of thought? Do they leave sh*t all over the place? If you answer a single yes in both sets of these questions, congratulations, you have an asshole on your hands.

Note that once you have identified an asshole, do not at all cost, attempt to confront it as it may react violently to your approach. Instead put on your gas mask, retreat a fair distance and instantly call the toll-free 1-800-ASS-HOLE to report of this find. The asshole may become dangerous and excrete a foul smell if located and may cause severe nausea and sickness amongst the populace. Only trained personnel may handle this threat to society. Note that we do not destroy animals simply because of their short comings and we will try to place them in captivity where we may study them and their interaction with other kinds of their species. It has been duly noted that the more assholes together, the total IQ of the group and the average doesn't increase, but decreases significantly.

Even though assholes are an endangered species of this planet and their extinction is no big loss to the world, they are still living beings, so do your part to save your asshole.

You know there are times when everything is perfect and everything is going the way you want it and suddenly some sh*theads have to come along and spoil it all for you. Just one action, one word, one look. Its that simple. I want all those people out there to know, that if they ever pissed someone off doing something like ignoring your stuff, they can just go to hell and burn there right now. Its that simple for these people to just lie down and die, coz they don't care and others just don't give a sh*t whether they deserve to live or not.

Now I come to the important part of deserving to live. I feel that life is a debt. Not a right, not a priviledge, not anything that you take for granted. But something you have to pay back. And until you do, you are nothing more than scum at the bottom of my feet. Take it from me, that's how low you are no matter what. Okay? You get the picture? No you don't! You just shake your head and say this is a demented guy full of hate. I wonder why am I full of hate. Is it because of you? Did you just shake your head and ignore this guy because he has nothing to say?

Let me put it to you this way. The more you ignore people, the more attention they seek. It goes that way. Take it from be, I was on both sides, and it wasn't nice to ignore and wasn't even nicer to be ignored. I hope some of you actually realise that. I had a friend who was insulting this other person I know just before the weekend in school. During the weekend, she died of natural causes. I hope you know how that feels, okay. One day, someone you ignored is going to do something so drastic and desperate that you are forced to acknowledge his presence and then you just say, "What a screwed up person!" All thanks to you.

Why do you think people commit suicide? Why do you think kids bring guns to school? Why do you think we join gangs? Why do you think the world revolves around you? I hate you all as I hate the world, and is bitter hatred is consuming some of us. Its taking all the willpower to contain this hatred, and the more I feel of it, the more I think the world doesn't deserve to live, so one day, I may decide to destroy the world. You watch, I'll do it. Just because of people like you.

Don't think that we are wrong because we are on the wrong side of the law, or that its our fault we cannot handle your sh*t. I have ways of dealing with my anger, and one of them is keeping it in until someone crosses me. Then you'll be sorry. I don't doubt I can kill someone, be it directly or through subtle means. Just give me a reason. The world has already given me plenty. Prove to me that any of you deserve to live and that you have paid your life debt then you can live happily, until then, know that you are dead until you prove yourself.

Someone out there would label me as disturbed. I tell you, because of what I face, some people either become depressive, others become suicidal, I just become more deadly. You are just lucky you never even seen my path, no less what I've been through. I warn you all first. Its not nice to ignore someone. I promise you that. Try me.

Hell yeah.

First and foremost, I would like to thank the first person who made his first comment. This brat-like nine year old must have recently got an Internet connection and decided that since he was annonymous, he could wreck havoc on other people's blogs. Trust me only a nine year old would have that mentality.

Now, this doesn't discourage me at all because I know there are decent people out there who can read and understand things, unlike this nine year old, so when you read this, I hope you'll say something constructive, not necessarily encouraging. Its okay, I'm used to it. Today, something interesting happened to me when I was going down to Orchard to frag a few people and be fragged badly. On the MRT, I happened to chance upon a bunch of rowdy girls, probably lower secondary. It was something to be talking with your friends, but its another thing when I can hear you from the other side of the carriage.

Certainly its a public place and you are free to do anything you want as long as its decent, but I was struck by the fact that this was the first time people actually laughed out loud (lol) and screamed on the MRT for joy. I find this very disturbing, after all I believe each has his own right to a little peace, if not quiet. It was funny, I can tell you that. They are laughing, yet they don't know that I'm laughing at them.

The MRT is a very interesting place if you happen to be in Singapore and if you ride it often enough. You'll notice the same things over and over again. Once I recall I met this lady who was wearing lots of jewellery, earings, watch, necklace, bracelet, perhaps the full set. It looked clear and shiny, so my first impression was that she was wearing diamonds. But then again, I thought, what is she doing on the MRT? Probably it was zirconium or polished glass. Then there was this guy who took out his handphone and started fiddling with it as if to show of his handphone by testing his ring tone and seeing whether it was loud enough. Sure I see a lot of Ah Bengs flashing their Nokia 8250 or Siemens s40 but sad to say I also have an 8250, perhaps I should change my phone if these phones were only meant to be flashed on the MRT.

Other interesting things would be also how people would seat on the MRT. Its very interesting to see a person get up and then a young man, or woman would slide in and close their eyes so as not to see any one in need of a seat, or to ignore the glares of the other passengers. And isn't it ironic that you see that seat which is supposedly for the elderly and disabled to be filled with youngsters? And its interesting to note that the people on the MRT standing, are opening their eyes, while the moment they seat, they start looking at the floor or pretend to doze off? I guess they were just looking for seats and when they got one, they wouldn't care anymore. Seriously I've been around for a year plus and I think I only saw one example of a young person giving his seat to the elderly.

Ironically on the other part of the elderly, I've seen cynical glares from them when I offer them my seat. I guess if they were so indignant about being called old, that they don't want to sit down, then they should at least refuse politely instead of a cynical glare. Sure, I don't mind giving up my seat. In fact I prefer standing, but then when I give up my seat and there is no gratitude shown, its like a hopeless gesture. Life is even better when I get up and suddenly there is already someone else in my seat. Not that this has happen to me yet, but I have friends who tell me. MRT etiquette is something sorely lacking. I guess its because we are all strangers to each other and there is no point being nice is there?

Life sucks.

There is the teenage universal greeting. I start of this way, because firstly I am a troubled teen. Secondly I guess adults should know of this greeting too. Its a simple way of telling people that my day was crappy and you shouldn't ask what's going on. And I'm not in the mood to be nice to you, so don't ask me to do any work. Strangely either adults are too thick, or they blatantly ignore the warning, knowing that they are all powerful as they are adults and they have credit cards...

Writing a blog is like writing a newspaper column. You need to do it regularly, and you just put your thoughts into words. But you don't get paid for writing blogs do you? After all, you are not a certified columnist. So what do you expect for low quality work? But I think blogspot.com is a good way of looking for budding new writers and aspiring journalist. The way which words flow onto the keyboard and reach out to millions is like what you can do with a newspaper, only maybe you'll get little subscribers. I hope that someone somewhere out there would actually bookmark my blog because they think its interesting. You see that's my dream for now. Its hard to achieve that, as I am writing what they probably don't want to read. I'm open for comments though. I would like to know what some of you would like to read, like recent news or events. Anything, as I have many thoughts on my mind, just that whether you want to know them is a different thing.

Hey, I would be really flattered if someone kept posting comments on my blog, it just means you took the time and trouble to read what I have to say. And you do or do not agree with me. Its great to see someone knowing what you are thinking. I feel that maybe depressed people need to do this, so that they would let out all the anguish in them and seek salvation. While I wait for my first comment, I would like to say, thank you for reading this.

Greetings world.

First and foremost I would like to tell the whole world out there you people really suck. Thank you. There is my contribution to making the world a better place. No, guys, I am not mental depressive or terminally insane or whatever fancy-pants a*sed term that you psychiatrists come up for obsessive compulsive people. Let me ask you all a question, why are you reading this blog? This is just my way of letting the world know that I hate the world, hate things that happen, and hate the way life goes on without you.

But strangely I am not a hateful person, am I?? Almost ridiculous right? But then again, everyone has their own views on the world. You are welcome to know mine and criticize me for it. Know that I am less-than-perfect and know that I am still new to the world. But know that different things happen to different people, and if you grow up bitter, you have no one to blame for it.

Why the title, "In Order There Is Chaos"? I feel that life is a balance, and that good can't exist without evil as we cannot comprehend one extremity without knowing the other. I feel like a rebel without a cause. The reason because, I feel that I resist social conformity or the sake of resisting being one of the crowd. I despise boybands and pop groups. I abhor professionals going by the book. I dislike people joining a fad. This blogger is my way of letting you know that you need a life.

Okay, at this point you would start to think that I am a very disturbed and unstable mental individual who should be put under careful surveillance. Maybe not. Its just me. Its just one of the members of the dark side of society that you choose to lock up somewhere so that you do not need to be ashamed that there are individuals like me.

Here are my thoughts on religion, for the sake of a few of my friends who believe that religion is a pile of crap, or the only way to salvation. I see God, the great good guy up there, as supposedly an example for us, someone to lead us somewhere, and then God's best friend is the Devil, because, you see, it has to work both ways. Don't think of the Devil as pure evil or temptation or anything, just think of him as what you don't want to be. Its as simple as that, and there is no point going around being anti-Christ, because those people are a joke. How can you be anti-Christ when you don't even believe in Christianity? Heheh... man, some people are dumb. But take it from me, live how you want to live your life, and let your conscience be your guide. Last time people probably needed religion because they probably couldn't know the difference between right and wrong, but guys, we've gone a long way from then. Lets all grow up, shake hands and make a better world so there would be less screwed up teenagers like me.
