Is GaGa losing her edge?

Last February I've got the chance to watch the Grammy live and the reason to wake up a little bit early was to catch what in the world GaGa would wear this time. After countless of ordinary outfit by other celebrity GaGa finally arrives, in an egg (or a vessel according to her). So, the world missed what she put on for the red carpet this year. What a shame. I was wondering was she naked or pretend to be a baby inside that vessel?

Nobody knows for sure but when she debuted her single Born This Way (dubbed as the best album of the decade by herself) it was plain and simple. The song leaked 2 days earlier and when I first listened I thought I downloaded a demo instead of ready-to-air single. What the hell happened to her?

Honestly the world expected something more from her. I do. When she debuted in the music scene I was thinking this is the true successor of Madonna. Well Britney is out of the picture now with her life gone haywire (a few comeback after that resolved this problem) and Christina Aguilera tanked her last album. Well I spoke too soon...

Music critics commented first single Born This Way just a rip-off of Madonna's Express Yourself and Vogue. I couldn't agree more. While she defended the song as original, her second single Judas tanked on charts as well. The single never reach Top 5 (it's ridiculous for this Mother Monster) and new promotional single already out titled Edge of Glory. U.K seems to agree as none of the singles reach #1 there, ironically her debut single Just Dance peaked at #1 weeks before reaching the penthouse in the U.S.

The album is not even out but more songs already released and so far a little praise for all of them. Edge of Glory sounded like 80's band Tears for Fears would sing and Judas just part 2 of Bad Romance. I am disappointed and wondering where the hell the old GaGa gone to?

The Fame was brilliant and the follow up EP Fame Monster was even better. Telephone was one of the best collaboration with Kill Bill-esque video to boot as well. After spending some time on the road for her Monster Ball tour, which become the highest-grossing tour for new artist maybe Mother Monster let herself go with craziness like her persona, overly designed and poorly executed.

 The cover is another thing. It looks cheap and plain awkward. GaGa born as a motorcycle? Does experimenting with Photoshop resulted such a hideous cover? They run out of budget to hire good photographer for an album cover? Nobody knows. I'm not the only one hurt my vision with this image, apparently many are.

The album will drop next week (May 23rd) and no doubt it will debut on top of the chart, but will it stay? With no reliable singles the album just gonna slip down the chart just like the singles. As a consumer I'm not convinced just being a fan required me to get the album. I am a fan of her last studio works. As for current masterpiece, it's just crap.

Now whos' next?

With Osama is now dead, who could be the next person disturbing the peace? You might probably say the whole al-Qaeda but what really rockin' KL now is the anonymous acid splasher. It's been going since last year and suprisingly the police still haven't got their hands on this acid splasher. Hmm...probably they're busy with some video issues (I need not fill you in for that).


I'm working in shifts and there are times that I need to work during graveyard shifts. I tell you, graveyard shift is fun. I'm sure you can't really put up with that but do you realize that when there are no people, meaning there will be no problem? It's pure heaven. But now with this acid guy running loose my journey to my office start to become sort of a challenge.

I know that only girls and ladies should be aware, but I don't know if the splasher might change his splashing policy (I'm damn sure he has some) and start looking for male victim. But in order to understand this human, we should list down his possible motive. Urm, these are mine:

a) He got wayyy too much acid supply and wants to get rid of them...on humans.

b) He wanted to test whether his acid supply works. Imagine this:

KUALA LUMPUR: The acid splasher strikes again this morning on his (insert numbering here) victim. The victim was walking toward her car and splashed with corrosive liquid.

The splasher: Oh, my acid works! Thank goodness. Now next bottle to try...

c) He's tired with news on the TV and newspaper. He wanted to be the headline rather than some hotel-made pornographic materials.

d) He watched SAW VI and wanted to try also. Maybe later he will use a reverse bear trap on some drug addict and caught a few Alongs to test how much limbs they willing to give (please watch SAW I and VI if you have no idea what I'm talking about).

Pretty good huh? Well, he probably reading my blog now and I bet he's nodding in agreement. I'm not a psycho per se but this is the world. People are their worst enemy. I can't see splashing acid to strangers is fun but I think it is fun when you can do it and get away with it.

My advice to this guy, dude, what the hell are you doing? There are a lot of problem in this world already, why the hell you become one of it? I think our PM should contact President Obama on how they located Osama like last time. Oh, it might take a decade to find this splasher and they might found some porns in his compound. Hey, if Osama accused of watching porn this guy probably heading the same way. And guess what, maybe some hotel-made porn are there too. So who recorded/upload the video is no longer a mystery.

Two birds with one stone. THAT'S EXCELLENT!!

Betul ke kau puasa?

Tup-tup dah bape hari dah ni kita puase. Kau ade rasa nak raya tak? Aku bila dah besa nih tak best dah raya. Yelah, duit raya memang sah tak dapat, pastu nak bukak posa kene la beli sindri, sebab mak dok jauh...(mode sedey di waktu pagi). OK, post kali nie sebab aku nak tanye diri sendiri ngan kau orang yang tengah membaca nehh...kau rasa ko posa ke? Ramai orang ingat yang posa ni just tahan lapa jek, yang lain tetap buat tanpa rasa bersalah.

Macam aku pegi shopping raya semalam (peh awal giler aku gi shopping yer) ade skit fashion show kat Sungei Wang Plaza tuh. Sekali baju dier bikini daaa...Dah tu takkan ko nak tengok sambil tutup mata kot. Aku jujur okeh, takat nak tengok sikit-sikit tu tak payah la. Dier da wat depan mata, aku pun stay la dalam 15 minit (takleh lama-lama, sebab nak bukak posa time tu). Agak-agak bape dah pahala aku lesap? Hahaha, kalu timbang dalam kati mahupun gram adalah teramat sikit la. Camni nak masuk syurga?

Akak tempat keje aku pun macam biase jek. Ade sorang nie kalu main komen takdenye nak tapis-tapis. Sekali klua mau wat hati panas. Bulan posa ke, bulan raya mahupun bulan Deepavali dier tak peduli, komen tetap pedih. Ade sekali tu aku kena komen sebab baju aku, hati da panas, tunggu time je nak fire tapi pikir dier dah tua buat pekak dah la. Tapi itula soalnye, ko puase ade nilai ke?

Cuba korang pikir, bulan posa ni ade korang wat perubahan kat diri korang? Maal Hijrah dah lepas, biler lagi nak berubah? Rutin kite sama ja kan? Takde pun nak kurang ke, macam bertambah lagi ade la.

Lepas baca post ni, kau rasa nak sambung puasa ke? Takde nilai Bedah, gi je bedal lauk pagi tadi bawah tudung saji tuh. Po po po!!

Three's a crowd


Obviously people hate to walk. Admit it, it sucks. Moving your legs back and forth are just not cool. But climbing those endless concrete to heaven a.k.a stairs are the worst. Hold on, perhaps you don't really remember what stairs look like. That beautiful invention was left behind when a magic aluminum/metal (yeah I don't really know the material) called elevator completely erased stairs from people's vocabulary. Your kids certainly know those Up & Down bottom better rather than whose invented the light bulb. Sadly, I've noticed even myself are drawn into extreme laziness when this metal box being put beside my energy consumption. My energy are just too precious for stairs.

I lived in PJ for 4 months and I can almost see the angels when my apartment was on 13th floor (heck, I can see the devils too from there). I remember when both of the elevators did not work, it was an excruciating period. I'm already having a hard time gaining weight, let alone climbing 13 sets of stairs to reach my house. Some people called it exercise, but for me it was a total disaster. Since people don't use it often, the lonely stairs become the place for vomits and trash dumping. Jeez, the journey to my room is no longer a journey to heaven, but more like getting through Buletin Utama with crappy political propaganda before really moving on to worthy news.

But now I live in Shah Alam and the condition is better than in PJ, but the scenario is pretty much the same. People even dare to take the elevator even to 3rd floor, which for me either showcase an extreme allergies to stairs or they just don't know stairs existed. Some of them even brought they motorcycle into the elevator. Wow, I wonder what could be so priceless about those two-wheeled vehicle. It's not new, let alone highly stolen models. Ah, maybe they need to hug their during dreamy hours. But, what about their wives? Heck, all three of them can snuggle each other I think. Three's a crowd rules is definitely not applicable.

But still, for me 7th floor is not that high compared to unlucky number 13 so the conflict about elevator or stairs is well discussed in my head when I reach my apartment. Truthfully, the metal box wins over a set of concrete blocks but we will see when say, a fire breaks in the apartment; which will I choose?

Elevators? Never heard of 'em..

STAIRS, YOU'RE MY LIFE!!!

Aku rasa dah cukup kot....

Aku nak mengaku nih. Aku adalah seorang perokok. Aku gerenti ramai tak caya apa yang aku tulih nih. Tak, aku masih waras. Tak la, aku tak mabok la. Haih. Yeee betul aku perokok. Tapi ape pulak kategorinye? Aku ni part-timer jek i.e perokok sosial/suka-suka/tunjuk best/ apa-apa jelah kau nak cakap. Mak aku kat kampung nasib baik tak reti pakai tenet, sebab tu aku mengaku secara terbuka nih. Tapi nape ye aku merokok? Aku terpelajar beb, English tiptop, Spanish bole tahan (kau mimpi ape neh?), tapi awat aku sedut jugak cancer stick (lain kategori dari vertical stick yang Lady GaGa nyanyi tuh) nih?

Aku ni orang selalu cakap muka aku ni muka baik/innocent. Betul ke? Sebenarnya dari sekolah lagi orang da stat label camtu. Yelah, aku nih tak kelua malam, dok umah je. Pastu rokok tu haram kat umah dulu. Jadi kawan-kawan aku memang gerenti tak ajak aku join pape pun diorang wat sebab aku ni anak mak. Aku training skang ni pun bila orang tengok aku isap rokok suma tanya ko isap rokok ke? Jadi label tu dah default melekat walaupun kat orang yang aku baru kenal. So aku da bosan ngan label tu. I can bad too la weyyyy...so ngan isap rokok ni aku rasa diri aku diterima ngan bebudak laki lain. Bila lepak aku rasa awkward sangat bila sume isap rokok aku je tak. Macam pelik tau. Jadi at least ngan rokok aku ada sumthin in common la...gettiiit??

Tapi logiknya otak aku tau isap rokok ni tak best. Aku rasa tak sedap badan la, mengantuk la, memacam la. Effect dier bukan best pun. Macam haram jadah adalaaaa...lagi satu gadis-gadis mesti da stat pandang serong kat aku. Wahai gadis-gadis sekalian, kau nak ke laki perokok? Tak yah jawab aku pun tau.

Kat atas ni gamba kotak rokok aku baru beli tadi kat 7e. Abis dekat RM10 gak. Bole wat duit makan kan? Tapi aku beli jugak menda haram ni. Adoilaaa...menyesal pun ade nih. Aku selalu pau rokok orang je, takde lagi beli sendiri.

So geng, kawan korang ni dah terpesong skit la. Maafkan aku ye. InsyaAllah aku akan berubah. Sebab rokok ni aku try nak ubah diri aku tapi kalu jadi lagi teruk watpe kan?

Doakan aku bebeh...

Keta Malaysia jugak cambest....

Aku terus-terang memang tak pandai bawak keta. Aku memang minat keta tapi nak menbawaknya menbuatkan aku pikir panjang sampai aku sendiri give up. Aku sememangnya tak berani nak bawak keta lagi-lagi ada manusia lain yang mempertaruhkan nyawa diorang ngan aku...haha. Lagi satu time drive bapak aku mesti jadi macam coach bolasepak, tak abis-abis komen pastu mengejut bagi arahan. Signal tak bagi la, tak tengok rear view mirror la, last-last aku sendiri naik fed-up. Senang aku naik moto ja, takde orang nak terpekik kat aku.

So bile dah keje nih aku ade la gak pikir nak pakai keta satu hari nanti. Yela, keta tu adalah satu simbol idop ko stabil. Cemane nak ngorat gadis kalu naik moto jek? Haha, gadis mestila nak laki yang stabil idopnye betul? Haa, angguk ye. Tapi nak beli keta ape? Pakcik aku penah cakap, bile ko da ade duit beli keta luar negara macam Toyota ke, Honda ke. Memang aku anggap tu macam cabaran sebab cuma ade 2 orang je pakai keta selain keta Malaysia, pakcik aku lagi satu ngan sepupu aku, Vios ngan Sentra. So target aku nak beli Kia Forte. Keta tu memang lawa. Tapi kan...

Kau ade denga tak Toyota panggil balik hampir 10 juta keta dier sebab macam-macam masalah. Salah satu prob dier pedal minyak bole tersekat kat karpet jadi keta kau tak bole la nak benti, terus je sampai ko langgar pokok atau menda-menda depan kau. Memang thrill kalu aku dapat keta camtu. Cukup time ko jadi serial killer. Gerun? Kau main Grand Theft Auto takde takut pulak ye?

Pastu tadi aku terbaca lagi General Motors (GM) panggey balik 1.3 juta keta sebab steering problem. Cukup 15k batu ko berjalan, steering jadi susah nak kawal, lagi bila bawak slow. Dah lagi satu masalah. Lagi Toyota pun tarik balik keta sebab salur minyak bocor. Aduii...

Ko penah denga kan Proton pun ade gak masalah camni, tapi satu model jela...Gen 2. Tak sampai sebulan ko pakai, dah tercabut itu ini. Tapi tu dulu la, skang takde dah tak salah aku. Jadi, keta luar ni best sangat ke? Ikutkan cuma Toyota jek yang ade masalah major sampai 10 juta keta. Lain-lain tu skit je. Dan sekarang ni aku sedar yang keta Malaysia gak yang best. Murah, pastu takde masalah sangat. Kalu ade keta Toyota skang ni, aku pegi trade in keta Saga SE jek...haha...berangan kau neh...

Ari ni Selasa kan? Esok Rabu...betul la tu...
