KeeMan’s Complicated Simplicity Blog V9.0

Great, i discovered a FREE Rapidshare premium account site at www.free-premium.com. All you need to do is to sign up and refer 5 friends to get a premium account for one month. What’s more, there are also premium accounts available for MegaUpload and SendSpace! But when it’s happy hour, you might not need premium account anyway, since you can download without security code. Oh well, just sharing what i’ve found.

And of course, if that doesn’t help you, you can always to go this site for more links. Why pay when u can have it free!

I really need to apologise to all my faithful readers (assuming i have about 10..hehe), especially to those who regularly visit my blog to check what i’ve been up to. Well, I’ve not been able to blog that often. In fact, i can only manage a 4-hour sleep daily, except for an extra 2 hours on weekends. That’s the life i need to cope with when i’m studying and working at the same time. The decision to convert my master’s project to PhD seems to have increased the level of workloads as well as my participation in various freelance jobs, which include among others: final year project/theses consultation, editing, proofreading, web design, materials design as well as tutoring. Anyhow, i think there are people out there who suffer greater workload than me. So, here are some tips that might just help you to maintain a healthy level of Insanity:

1. Text/SMS to your own number with the message "Are you insane?"
2. Switch channel every 5 seconds and repeat until you fall asleep.
2. Every Time Someone Asks You To Do Something, Ask If They Want Ketchup with that.
3. Put Your Garbage Can On Your Desk And Label It “In.”
4. As Often As Possible, Skip Rather Than Walk.
5. Go To A Poetry Recital And Ask Why The Poems Don’t Rhyme
6. When The Money Comes Out The ATM, Scream “I Won!, I Won!”
7. Visit all stores in a shopping mall and start pretending you’re a millionaire who can’t be bothered to spend a penny on their stuff.
8. Watch The Apprentice, and start speculating when will Trump’s hair start to fall!
9. Start checking all the blogs available and leave a comment "I’ve been here!"

Haha….the best way to remain insane is by Smiling when other people are Frowning….

In response to Govt to have regulation for converts to inform family(The Star, 10 April 2008)

Kudos to Pak Lah for thinking of the need for converts (to Islam) to inform their family members of their intentions to convert by filling-in a form or writing a letter. Nevertheless, a form or a letter is not sufficient, and can be wrongly manipulated by interested parties. A convert-to-be might take the easy way out by falsifying declaration that his/her family has been informed.

While the decision to convert is an individual right, the government has an obligation to all of its citizens (irrespective of their ethnicity and religion) to protect and minimize negative impact on the welfare of the children and/or other members of the family. The government should not be supportive and protective of the convert only. The government through its appointed agency or representative needs to get the convert-to-be and his/her family members together for a face-to-face meeting, even if the convert-to-be is at his/her death-bed. The convert should then make a declaration of his/her intentions in front of the family and the appointed representative as a witness. In addition, the convert-to-be needs to make an open declaration of the consequences of his/her actions, such as the intentions to convert their children, or to give away his/her property the Islamic way, etc. The family members of the convert-to-be should not be handicapped or left in the dark when the convert starts to take action after his/her conversion. This would allow equal footing and all fairness to family members to make the necessary preparations to defend their rights, and not left feeling "bullied" by the privileges bestowed on the convert by his/her conversion.

On another note, the government should also reconsider the issue of children being converted just because the father has converted to Islam. Both parents came into union and had children before the father converted to Islam. Thus, both parents have equal rights on deciding their children’s religious beliefs and their future. The government or the law cannot insist that the children become Muslim just because the father has converted to Islam. The matter have to be solved through a just legal civil process, so that the children are not manipulated or taken advantage of, and his wife and other family members are not victimized, again by the privileges bestowed on the convert by his/her conversion (to Islam).

Once again, kudos to the Pak Lah for being sensitive to the spiritual rights of Malaysians, but this small step need to be bigger and equally protective of all citizens of Malaysia.

I discovered Uncyclopedia.org by accident, a site which claimed to the parody for Wikipedia.org.

And a quick search for the keyword "Malaysia", will give you this:

http://uncyclopedia.org/wiki/Malaysia

Now, read through every single fact on that site about Malaysia. It may sound painful, but most of the facts are truthful enough that many Malaysians tend to deny.  What attracts me the most is the Samy Vellu list of famous quotes:

• Samy Velu on pos laju "BESOK KIRIM, HARI INI SAMPAI"
• Samy while ashamed "Kemaluan saya besar"
• Samy on drugs campaign, "Jangan hisap dada"
• Samy on national television "Toll naik sikit, Manyak marah saya. You ingat semua ini toll saya punya bapa punya kah!"
• Samy on his modesty: "sebenarnya, kemaluan saya Sangat-sangat besar"

Well, enjoy reading the rest of the page! And of course, any comments, you may post it here. Hahaha..
