Perak

Nope.. Am not talking about that state in Malaysia, nor am I referring to 'perak' (pronounce PE as in PE-san and not like pear-rak..) or that shiny silver thingy.
It is my only reason to smile nowadays. Am really looking forward for it. You'll see the update soon enuff (hopefully.. ;) )

Freedom of speech

There's no such thing as freedom of speech anymore. The most recent example is coming from our very own 'proud' Bbeloved Company. They told us not to give any comment on recent issue, and expect everyone to obey and just suck it. Like we are a five year old, who have no thoughts of our own. But.. I must not elaborate more on this.. zippp.

On the other hand, there's Mr. Turkey president who challenged Mr.Peres on stage during the World Economy Forum over Gaza...
On that short debate (where Peres had 20minutes while he has only 12) which I quote as the best that he deliver was ''Mr.Peres, you're older than me. Your voice is coming too loud. I know that the reason of your voice's coming this loud is a guiltiness psychology. My voice won't come this loud, know that so.....When it comes to kill, you know how to kill very well. I know how you shot, how you killed the children on plages, very well. Two people who had been prime minister in your country made important statements to me. You have prime ministers who said that "When i get in to Palestine on tanks, i feel myself a different kind of happy." And you're giving me numbers. I can give you names. You may be wonder... I also condemn who acclaims to this grimness......Because i suppose acclaiming the people who killed those children, those people, is another humanity crime. Look, we can not edge out a reality here. I keep a lot of notes here, but i don't have a chance to reply all here. But i only say two words from here.......First, - Please don't interrupt me! First, The Torah says in the sixth topic that "You are not going to kill!". There is killing here. Second, -this is also interesting too- Gilad Atzmon: Israel barbarism is on the further side of fiendishness -a Jewish''
He was then interrupted (like those annoying music during award ceremony when you are over-doing ur acceptance speech) by the m.c claiming that they need to wrap up to allow all of the guests to have their dinner. So.. he walked off the stage.
Anyway, for what it's worth.. you sure are brave and have my salute! Here's to Mr.Erdogan! (lift up my imaginary hat up high and bow with respect to the one-minute guy)

the big Y

I have been stretching myself for a non-stop work lately. I didn't think I'd be this tired. Our channel finally launches their 24hours airtime. Which mean, we have to work extra hard to cover all those hole of shifts. There are 7 of us to struggle along the 24hours, 7days job but we are down with 5; 1 is on a month leave and 1 is a newbie.
I'm amazed how they couldn't care less with the fact that their employees are struggling to fulfil their greedy need to show off their we-can-do-it-too attitude. Yesterday, another colleague of mine had to be release due to family emergency, so now we are down to 4... which mean, no off days until next week. Sweet huh?! As if we don't have a life.. as if we don't have a 16months old daughter who now screams more for attention. It sadden me.. And people say slavery is things of the past.
Like it or not, at some point we are all a slave. Enslaved by money, by greed and by needs. Nothing is ever enough anymore. If one day we finally manage to buy ourselves something that we can't ever dream of having in the past, we would then wants MORE. We would then see, hurm.. maybe I should get it in black, purple or pink to match the dress..
and I am as guilty as anyone else in this world. I let myself to be enslave of my own desire for more money.. thus result the stretchful non-stop work.

the endless desire, the desire to show off.. just like my Bbeloved Company....

What I flip lately..

No.. It's not a how-to guide, but merely suggestion of what not to bother, what's normal, and what you need to focus on through your amazing journey with your toddler.
Yes.. some people would think that how lame it is to depend on book for solution, but guess what? sometime this sort of books are far more helpful than ringing a friend for help. It gave me more confidence and assurance.
And No.. it's not like taming-animal-kinda-book, it's just a wonderfully marketed title ;)
So to those of you who kinda feel lost at time, I strongly recommend this book, you'll understand what I mean when you venture with it!
Note: Also highly recommended to all crazy-thinking-am-i-doing-enuff-for-my-baby-sort-of-mommies out there.. Yess you are doing great! Cheer up ;)

An eye opener

After few days of seeing the news on Gaza massacre, I finally decided to do something. What can a one tiny person like me do in order to make a different? All my life, I never bother to check the news and what's what, I have always been so selfish, thinking about buying new clothes or shoes and not bothered by what is happening to the world. That is until today... somehow I was urged to open up my eyes. I started google-ing some info on Palestine and Israel, and came across this..
Picture taken from http://www.freefilisteen.com/
I can't imagine the feeling of the father of the innocent baby that was shot-dead at his head.. why does it need to be so cruel?!
Somehow instead of being the old couldn't-care-less me, I needed to do something.. I want to at least be part of the boycott of the Israel's goods... and if you are with me on this, visit this website, tones of facts and list of brands and goods (which I am not proud to admit being part of my everyday-use are among the major supporter of the Zionist). If only I care about it long before..
It is never too late to take an action. One tiny person can make a different if we work together, I'm not saying go and throw away all the related goods that you have, I'm suggesting that we need to open up our eyes.. and stop buying their products until they end the support to the cruel arrogant Zionist-Israel.
Among the popular company & brands products that you should look for to make this boycott possible are

Like quoted from the website; "Each riyal, dirham …etc. used to buy their goods eventually becomes bullets to be fired at the hearts of brothers and children in Palestine.. To buy their goods is to support tyranny, oppression and aggression." -Sheikh Yusuf Al-Qaradawi''

May Allah bless all the innocent souls.
