china...

swear if my dad reads this, its the end of me...

no doubt about it... im proud to be a chinese... proud to be a malaysian chinese.. and proud just to be part of such a rich cultured, traditional population in general...

even more proud that china is one of the strongest economy in the world (3rd behind japan(2nd) and america)... am happy that everyone is actually noticing china as it storms through...

nevertheless, was chating with daniel about well.. mainland chinese people, and some of the issues i think needs urgent addressing...

this generation.. the whole one child policy.. fair enuff, its needed to be done to reduce the population rate of china and to stabilize everything up.. nonetheless, people still have more than 1 kids.. they are just not registered.. people say china's population is around 1.3 billion..but if you add those who arent registered.. possibly 1.4 or even more...

and what happens with like.. if there was an earthquack or anything liek that.. such as the one in sze chuan province.. what happens to those parents.. who loses their child... and thats it.. no more for them...

or even worse... the whole melamine issue... its just absolutely embarrasing...

for many of the mainland china people that i know.. within my generation.. they are mostly.. spoilt and just absolutely naive.. trapped in their little bubble without having a single clue of whats happening outside of that bubble...

all they do, smoke, drink, drive fancy 'rice rockets'(whats what modified jap cars are called in canada apparenlty .. according to my canadian friend)... dressing up in branded fancy clothes.. and just screwing everything else up..

dont reli blame them, they were brought up this way... with only one child to support and love, their parents basicaly spoilt the shit out of them...

often wonder how china would be like. in 20 years time when this generation.. takes over in the working world....

another issue... the whole issue of... the men in the house is the king of the house.. its his way or the highway!

absolutely ridiculous i tell ya... absolutely stupid...

and its things like this that possibly more and more chinese girls are looking for men elsewhere

dont believe me.. just read this article...(thanks to dan for it)

bye bye gossip king...

as the end of the year arrives, or at least the end of the academic year for all melb uni students, i finally realise that come feb next year, i basicaly dont know anyone in IH anymore... not even a single student.. okay. maybe a couple.. but everyone that i usually talk to.. have moved out/graduated/ moving out...

i remember talking to jeannie a couple of weeks back, and talking about IH stuff, and she goes on and says to me " eddie, everyone has moved on, everyone has diff lives to live now..." .. how true... IH is kinda like a dsitant past now, with lots of fond memories all packed in it...

ah well.. heres to IH! haha.. no more gossips from me thats for sure... it was good while it lasted! and thus the chapter closes...

random thoughts on reality/talent shows...

this is how obsessed i am... basicaly, its impossible to download the 1st season of americas best dance crew, ive only managed to download the 1st 6 performances of my 2 favourite crews, winners jabbawockeez and my fav crew kaba modern (in which yuri tag from my previous post is from)...

so yeah.. im lacking 2 performance from them... and just nice.. mtv on my virgin tv is showing the 1st season so i managed to catch one performance last week, and i knew it was goin the other performance was going to be on this week....

so this is what i did.. took a tripod, hook up my camera to it.. and recorded their performance! wooohooooo!!! yeah..i know, i need to get a life...

moving along, was watching who wants to be a millionair and i noticed the most stupid move that just about every contestant make when they want to use one of their particular lifeline... 50:50

whenever the contestant is stuck... and wants to use the 50: 50 lifeline, the host will always ask the contestant which one he/she thinks is the answer... and that option will always still be available after canceling the 2 wrong answers out! it will always be there.. so the contestant will be stuck in a pickle all over again.. and the 50: 50 lifeline doesnt help at all in the end!

i think that.. the contestants shouldnt even tell the host what he/she thinks is the answer.. then maybe the game might not be biased in their "random way of canceling out 2 wrong answers"

other thoughts... instead of of going on who wants to be a millionair to win some money, i think this is a good idea on how to earn some...

write a book.... titled

"how to win a reality show for dummies"

some may say shows life x factor, sytycd, abdc or american idol or whatever idol is more of a talent show than anything else, i personally dont think so, the winner wins it largely due to their personalities as well.. thus.. its a reality tv show..

if you disagree.. then jsut write a "how to win a reality/talent show for dummies".. just doenst sound as catchy as the previous one!

miss yuri tag

those who are close or even semi close to me should know about this...

i always get asked this question

whats the definition of a hot woman

is it her being sexy?cute?pretty?stunning?

i dont know about everyone else... but for me.. there are 3 types of hot woman

type 1:the sweet looking type that you can bring home and show your parents... with her in a summer ish dress looking all girly and feminine, and sweet!

type 2: the type where somehow.. she has that more.. wild clubber chick look that you can take her out on a nite at a club and flaunt her, and all your guy friends will be jealous as !

type 3: now here comes the ultimate type.. the type who can cover both type 1 and type 2. Sweet looking to the point she can pull of the summer ish dress, the sweet make up etc, and yet has that sorta look that if she chucks on some clubbing outfit and some make up.. she will be the highlight of the dancefloor!

so yeah.. type 3 kicks asss!

ooh... if you are wondering who is that girl at the top... its yuri tag from kaba modern. If you are still totally clueless, kaba modern was the 2nd runner up of Randy Jackson's(black judge from american idol) Americas best dance crew-season 1!

shes is hot hot hot... at least i think so (jia yun begs to defer, saying that she is cute, but not hot)

not only that.. she can dance.. she can definitely dance!

and.. she is HOT!

time to start studying...

6 weeks has passed by just like that, and i havent done anything at all... fair enough, ive been attending classes ( most of them at least, would be a blatant lie if i said i attended all of them)...

but now now.. its finally time to start studying slightly more hardcore ish!

tidied up my room and now everything is in place to start placing my textbooks and notes on my desk!!!

bad timing though, my housemates and i just bought a 37 inch tv and hooked up the dvd player, xbox 360 and the wii to it.. not a good sign!

lets see what else is new...

to answer everyone.. im still single.. come on man.. you should know me by now... single.. as always! hahhaa... just wanted to remove it.. kinda sad! hahaha... have to say.. when i read kenny's comment i burst out laughing

" Kenny Chua at 10:10am November 10

dammit, we need another gossip king to tell us gossip about the gossip king"

so yeah.. no gossip fellas.. just wanted to remove it, followin the footsteps of jason!

lastly... topic of the day(been quite a while) - Does corny pick up lines ever work?

its totally random, and i actually googled some corny pick up lines just for fun.. there were a few good ones i have to say... such as

"screw me if im wrong, but havent we met before?"

"be unique and different. just say yes"

"thats a nice shirt, can i talk you out of it?"

"if i said you had a great body, would you hold it against me"

well there are so many many more.. just go to google and type up corny pick up lines.. way way more where those came from...

but yeah, wonder whether any of it actually works?

and you thought i was obsessed over shoes...

too bad im a size 11US, and also 60,000 usd short in cash

bad luck for the seller though, size 10US is not known to really be a common size... think he is going to have a pretty hard time selling it.. ooh, the 60,000 price tag doesnt help as well

bet you its going to be bought up by one of those rappers who has shoe collections...
