You made the world a better place...

Dearest friends,

We have lost some one great today.

I can't believe he is gone. I know my friend Niro is devastated, he is such a huge fan.

Michael Jackson is undoubtedly one of the greatest performers in my lifetime.
I loved him in Jackson five, in the Thriller and in Billie Jean. I hope people remember him for who he is, a father, a dancer, a singer and someone who has bought so much hope to many. Although I have never been obsessed about MJ, but he has always entertained me. I have so much respect for what he has achieved. No one will or should take that away from him.


I have been listening to his songs on my cassette player. That's how old some of them are.
This is my favourite...

There's a place in your heart
And I know that it is love
And this place could be much
Brighter than tomorrow.
And if you really try
You'll find there's no need to cry
In this place you'll feel
There's no hurt or sorrow.
There are ways to get there
If you care enough for the living
Make a little space, make a better place.


Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me and the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for
You and for me.
If you want to know why
There's a love that cannot lie
Love is strong
It only cares for joyful giving.
If we try we shall see
In this bliss we cannot feel
Fear or dread
We stop existing and start living
Then it feels that always
Love's enough for us growing
Make a better world, make a better world.

And the dream we would conceived in
Will reveal a joyful face
And the world we once believed in
Will shine again in grace
Then why do we keep strangling life
Wound this earth, crucify it's soul
Though it's plain to see, this world is heavenly
Be God's glow.


We could fly so high
Let our spirits never die
In my heart I feel
You are all my brothers
Create a world with no fear
Together we'll cry happy tears
See the nations turn
Their swords into plowshares
We could really get there
If you cared enough for the living
Make a little space to make a better place.


I am still speechless. I hope you all take care! Please take care. XoXo

Goodbye to "bad boys"...

Between the age of 15-18. I admit, I did have a thing for the bad boys. There is something about them that is just attractive. Was it the looks? No.. It was more of the attitude and the.. omg "he is so wild, but I can tame him" ideology.

I blame the movies and books for such delusions. In those stories, the guys are always wild, grown up in the wrong side of the town, partying, not turning up to school, not nice to people, unreliable and so forth. But then one day he meets this girl, at first he didn't think much, he tries to intimidate her and push her away like he does to others, but she stands up to him. He is so shocked because this timid good girl is not afraid of him. He is interested, he gets to know her more. BAM! He starts to follow her around, he writes sweet letters, he protects her...he has fallen in love with her.

So now I'm older, armed with better and more rational reasoning skills, I once again analyse what it really means to "date a bad boy".

Firstly, why are these guys bad? Yes, they had a rough upbringing, but they still have a choice to be responsible for their actions and to be nice to others. There is really no excuse to being an asshole.

Secondly, will they ever be nice to the one particular girl? No, it's unlikely. They are unreliable, and they never wanted to be responsible and obey rules of the society. Even if you do try to change them, it will only be temporary.

Thirdly, who wants to be called to the police station at 2Am to bail out your boyfriend, because he decides that he has to "stick up for a mate" by getting into a fist fight? or even worst, to be on the end of a fist fight. Poor Rhianna..

Lastly, if the reason you are attracted to X because he is hardcore, wild, bad etc... then clearly, you will lose interest when he becomes tamed by you. When he does all the right thing and follow you around like a puppy, will you still be attracted to him?


Therefore, after such deductions, I (the wise one) conclude that "bad boys" should be left as a fantasy and it should definately not be exercised upon. GEEKY boys, it's your turn to shine..
bring out your comic books, and wow us girls with your "LMAO" jokes and wikipedia knowledge.

Devil's Advocate

The ability to argue from both sides should be admired and applauded. When you study law, this is essential. Being the devil's advocate, coming up with clever minority arguments will often get your good marks. I love Kirby J. Blah Blah......

This is all good, BUT SOME PEOPLE take this too far.

PROBLEM:
Have you ever had a friend, who likes to make negative comments when you tell them something that you are proud of, or you did well in. A friend who compliments with the most condescending tone.

Let me demonstrate..

Exhibit A:
K: Hey X, I started a new blog!
X: That's exciting, abit narssistic though isn't it? I think only people who have too much spare time or are too into themselves write blogs.

Exhibit B:
K: Hey, I got a really good mark on ___.
X: oh well done, but i guess you have more time to work on your assignments since don't work much.

Exhibit C:
X: Hey you got a hair cut, I dont' see any difference.
X: I like your new hair, it ooks like Rhiannas, not very original .. no offense.

Exhibit D:
K: Hey I bought this really pretty dress.
X: oh it's nice, but I.....don't think it suits you.

As you can clearly see from above, X has a way of subtly inserting their negativism in to "compliments". One comment, fair enough.. 10 times consecutively....SLY moles.

It's true, I don't have thick skin. However, I can accept criticims, no worries mate. What is ironic is that the aforementioned "negative" comments are consistently paid out from the same individuals. They are always questioning you on why you did something, and saying that they don't agree. Honestly, after 10 times, I don't care what you think. You never get these comments from anyone else, so it's clearly them and NOT YOU. I propose two explanations. Firstly, Xs are not happy with their own life, therefore they feel the need to bring other people down to their level. Secondly, they were born with a broomstick up their rear end, which results in bottled up stress.


SOLUTION:
Remember, it takes 42 muscle to frown but only 3 to reach out and slap that bitch!


Haha, I apologise for these erratic posts.

Desire of the week:
These Christian Louboutins.......lust

I love this preppy look...I heart blazers.

Have a nice week guys!
