Since When Chinese New Year Was So Overrated

Few more days before we really sitting down with family members for the reunion dinner. It's also the start of my long week rest from work and all the daily congestion. Yes!!! K.L going to be vehicle-less for at least few days. Well not really congestion free but you can listen to bird sing in the morning instead of cars honk.

I'm not really a big fan of CNY. But as a chinese, I celebrate it as much as any chinese in Malaysia do.

The thing about CNY is, either you get plentiful of rest or you get plentiful of driving. Rest because you are born in KL and you decide to celebrate here. Driving because you need to travel few hundred kms just to reunite with your family together with thousands other poor souls who trapped with you on the highway.

The food factor. Ahh Yes. The food. "Daging salai". Seriously if you have tested "daging salai", beef jerky is nothing. Absolutely nothing. Go spread to ang mo. tell them to switch to our version of jerky. But then of cause ours are more oily and unhealthy. There's so much food that it's not possible to write every single one of them.

"Ang paus". Money is a big factor. Haha. Gambling + Ang Paus = Fun x 10. The reason alot of us is looking forawrd to CNY is because of gambling. I think gambling is in the blood of chinese, we just like to gamble. Gamble your kids, your wife, your dog and etc. Chinese is creative gambler. They bet almost everything.

And then the big turn off. The relatives factor. How many of you guys have relatives problem?
I've asked few of my friends, they had these relatives problem also. If you would use a dog breed to describe them, they're definitely the blood hound. They poke their nose everywhere. They are two face too. When facing each other, they jokes and laugh. When you turn back, they turn into some gossip machine and spread pure fabric rumours about you.

Yes, I do not get along with my relatives. My mum told me, ever since I was small, I like to isolate myself. Call me anti social, call me freak, call me whatever you want. Every CNY, they came to my house, eat my foods, leave their poops and left over for me to pick up and yetttttttttt I still need to show some ancient chinese royalty kow tow to them.

Once they're at the front door, your can hear my dad calling my name and greet my relatives like some eunuch paying a respect to Chinese Emperor.

"Wong seung man sui man sui..man man suiiiiiii".

Mum: Why your face liddat? Happy abit can anot? Smile. Lets put a smile on that face.
Me: (:

Yes..Kow tow....I bet half of them don't even knew my name. I think this year I need to ran amok with "parang" just to chase them away. (Guys, if you see me waving parang, I'm still sane k..I'm just chasing my relatives away. )

I don't know are my relatives reading my blog, but if you do. Don't come this year!!! Cause I'm crazy + siao this year. I will slash you if you come my house.

Haha. Who am I kidding. Come come. Everyone come. Gong Xi Fa Cai (Hiding a knife behind my back. )

PopShuvIt

After watched the video that Yat intro, I feel like I need to retaliate with a video back. For those who haven't watch the Yatz video. Please click here.

I had to agree with Yatz, it is annoyingly catchy. Gee gee gee.

Argh...I just had to silence it from my head.

To be honest, i condemned pop-ish band or pop-ish singer. They didn't write their own stuff, they just ask someone to write a song and they sing it. I'm not saying all was like this, but most of them were.

Here's a nine man band also. Known as Slipknot.

Some might find it noisy but better than annoyingly stucked inside my head.

I was not big fan of them until one of my malay friend intro their songs to me. It just carry on from that point.

Instead of chicken dancing of the gee gee why not head bang.. Hahaha....

P/S: Yatz, I had to disagree, I don't like the Gee Gee things... Haha

Sneakers Is Part Of My Life

Everyone got their own obsession. Some are toys, Adrian some are bearbricks, some are clothes, Jason some is gadgets, Jen some are Haro Kitty, Hikaru some are women, Rames some are Apple gadgets.Mine are definitely sneakers

I got a great collection of sneakers that some of them I didn't even wear them anymore but I just keep it for collection.

Some are so worn out as if it was used for the past ten years.

Sometimes I just feel like taking picture with them like this

Typically, Horribly And Wonderfully Malaysian

Early morning when you're heading for work, you'll encounter typical Malaysian traffic jam. Whole stretch of 20km highway without any traffic light still we're crawling at snail pace. It seems like it stuck for no reason.

When you're on the fast line, there always one or two idiots who hogging the lane at 50 or 60 km/h. No matter how close your car to his/her, he/her still not moving away. How typically Malaysian. Hogging the fast lane so that it causes major traffic jam. It's gonna be a new excuse for arriving late at work. Some idiot hogging the fast lane, hence I was late.

It get even worst when there's an accident on the side of the road. Be it minor or major, yet there is still people slow down and take a look. Perhaps really calling grandma and telling her that there's an accident. It just amazing what curiosity level we Malaysian had. I will not saying I'm not one of them, because I do slow down and take a look. But I do not do it on early morning and when rushing to work.

Yet, for all the above. I do saw people helping out when there is an accident. Strangers from no where willing to send you to hospital. Strangers from nowhere willing to help you cross the road if you're unable to do so yourself. Strangers from nowhere willing to take you to the place you wanted to go. How horribly, typically and wonderfully Malaysian.

Planning Ahead And Seeing Further Ahead Of Weekends

It's getting closer to weekends, and I had everything plan ahead. Amazingly I did. No more spontaneous Junn. I'm organized Junn.

Starting on Thursday onwards, everything was planned. Gym session on Thursday, go Pavillion shopping on Friday, attend Hikaru well planned Birthday celebration on Saturday and eat "don't know what" chicken on Sunday.

When things are planned way ahead it sounds so routine and you donot expect any screw ups. But God has a funny way to get at you. Through my experiences, every time you planned something nice nice, cantik cantik, somehow or somewhat, shit happens.

But this is a brand new year, with brand new plannings and brand new start. Things should go as planned, right? Or not. We'll see how this weekend turn out to be. Amazingly and accordingly to planned or horribly and unexpectedly not as planned.

If shit does happen, this is the word best describe it. "Un-sangkarable".

I think lately I'm having a sickness. It's called kanjiong-ness.

This few weeks since Christmas I've been having this kanjiong-ness syndrome.

I am not calm, I'm edgy.

I think I need to bertafakur inside waterfall ady. Just to clear my heads.

I guess it's somehow related to my "well planned" agenda. I think I need to switch back to the unorganize and spontaneous side of me.

See, I'm being hypocrite again. Calm down Junn. CALM DOWN.

Must be CNY coming. Too many holidays. Over excited.

Wusha..wushaaaaaaa

What's My Age Again ? What's My Age Again ?

Hmm..the inevitable truth came finally. Year 2009.
