Changes.

What are you afraid of?

Don't know bout you, but if there's one thing that I am afraid of, and have yet to conquer, it must be change.

Often in life, I know I need to change, but I am to afraid to. To many what ifs, and maybes.

"What if, the change turns out to be worse?"

"Maybe it is better to stay where I am."

"What will people think?"

But now, I know, I HAVE to change. For the better or the worse. No change is definitely the paling horrible wan.

As they've always said, plan A don't work? Switch to plan B loh~ And therefore, I is switching to plan B. That is, to work hard.

.. okay la, I try okay? =)

Tanah yang aku takkan tumpah darahku.

As Malaysia likes to publicize itself, it is a multi-racial country, bla bla bla, they say it like we are the perfect country, when in fact, everybody is just tolerating one another. But hey, I'm not saying that other countries are better or what... but that is their story la, none of my business. As a Malaysian citizen, this is what I've observed. *disclaimer: I am not being racist.*

Our country practices cultural assimilation in response to demographic multi-ethnicity. Meaning that, you add race A,B,C and D, but A would be the official one/ main. If you are Malaysian, I think you get it.

And people have long have a problem with that. Especially the Chinese and Indians. They say, it's not fair to favor one particular group just cause they came and steal the land and claim that they are the bumiputeras. I won't deny being part of these people. See, I so honest =D

However, I've come to the realisation that it all boils down to one word: GREED.

They want more for themselves, so they point fingers at the bumiputeras and shout IT AIN'T FAIR!!!

You know, I used to think that if the PM were to be a Chinese or even Indian, our country would have been so much better. *ahemsingaporeahem*

But IF, I'm saying IF, the PM is really Chinese/ Indian, can we still live this peacefully or tolerating-ly?

As a Chinese, I know that we Chinese are very selfish, so if the PM is a Chinese, I'm quite sure that all the new laws passed would only favor the Chinese, and it would be a very Chinese-biased country. Maybe far worse than our current state. Then, wouldn't it create even worse racial problems?

And then the politics scene would be even more like monkey business? No? Cause even now, the politicians like to "racial-ise" everything already.

And what if, what if, we become like China, where even the meat is made of banboo? I no wan lor..

So yes, for the first time ever, I'm telling you, I like Malaysia just the way it is, despite it's flaws. *Bruno Mars's Just the way you are pops into mind =.=*

Thoughts: Parents.

Was walking around the mall and spotted this young girl, closing her eyes, holding her father's hand and walking. I heard her telling her dad that she trusts him and she's closing her eyes to walk. And for the first time, I find kids so sweet =)

Friends, appreciate your parents, they won't be with you forever whether you like it or not. And parents, no matter "good" or "bad" will always be bonded to you by blood, and well, as I think of it, better to have parents that you dislike and complain about than not having any at all.

If you so happen like your parents and find them very cool like I do, good for you! Appreciate them even more. Yes, even if they're weird. Who says you're normal anyways? =P

Thoughts: gender equality.

While taking the lrt/bus back to Taiping this weekend, the thought of gender equality popped up, no thanks to one of the classmates that keep repeating the phrase.

So actually, WHAT, does gender equality means?

I never thought about it much, but I believe that there will never be gender equality. Unless guys can give birth, and girls can err... make guys pregnant? =___=

However, I do believe that we have equal rights to live as a human. In the olden days, and even now, girls were made to believe that they are not worthy to live as much as the guys are. They were considered a disgrace to the family in some parts of the world. Heck, they were even killed just because they are, a girl.

But fortunately, with the human race being more "civil", girls in most parts of the world have the equal right to live as the guys. They are not killed as soon as they're born. Well, not as often as they do anyway.

And I am grateful that I'm born in this era, where I have the right to live, and am given the right to make choices. Yes, sometimes, I was treated unfairly just because I'm a girl, but I do believe that someday, both the genders will live with equal rights.

I still don't believe in gender equality in the sense that girls can do what the guys do and vice versa.

Woman these days, they tend to want to take charge. In the work force, I'd say it's still alright. But in a family? I don't think that's right.

The Bible, yes, you may faint. I do read the Bible.

The Bible clearly states that the man is the head of the family, and therefore, the woman should respect their husband. And husbands, the Bible also states that you need to love your wife like you love yourself =)

People always say that girls were treated unfairly, but I think guys were treated unfairly too. In fashion sense, you wouldn't even frown or take another look if a woman were to wear pants these days will you? But if a guy wears a skirt, I'm sure at least 80% of the people will still frown, stare and STAREEEEEE.

And of course, there are other areas too, but well, discover that yourself. =D

so long~~

and yes, after re-reading it, I find it without any main point. oh well. feel free to hit the search button on Google.
