Behind 2013... so far

2013.... What's new, eh? Only thing great about this year is that the world didn't end last year. Other than that, I guess everything is pretty normal.

Right about now I guess everyone in Malaysia is talking about the upcoming elections, probably in March/April. But why are they making such a big fuss over it? I mean, c'mon. The world's being slowly baked in an oven. UV radiation's hitting everyone because they can. Children are poofing everywhere. The dolphins are probably gonna poof themselves, along with some other fishes.

And everyone in the world is generally getting unhappy over the movement of pieces of paper, and over whomever who gets to control the movements of the pieces of paper. It's kinda funny since it's not the pieces of paper that are unhappy. 

Anyway, the big hoo-ha in Malaysia now is that PSY is coming to Malaysia. I can hear it now, people around the world saying either: "Okay, that's cool" or "Meh. So what?" But right now, right here, you won't believe the noise. Word on the street is that the current guv invited him over with a huge fee of RM 2 mil to perform his Gangnam Style. So skeptics all around me are saying: 

So, yeah. To properly understand why people are saying this, you would probably need to understand how "democracy" works, esp. in Malaysia. But I won't bother explaining it for two reasons.

1) It's too much to explain in a post, or even in 7 books/8 movies.

2) Its probably the same in any part of the world that practices democracy. (No offense, Middle East.)

And everyone else is just ranting around, and posting stuff on Facebook and Twitter and blogs, saying how bad this problem is gonna be and how it'll affect the country and how it shouldn't be and calling the guv unproductive and generally not doing anything productive.

Sometimes I just don't wanna live on this planet anymore and hitchhike a ride to outer space.

Hint hint: highly related to my next post ;)

But then I look around, and I realised something.

Life, in general, sucks.

(Death sucks too, so don't get the wrong idea.)

SO, I decided that I won't let life get the satisfaction of knocking me down, or so help me I'll go on a diet!

To tackle life, first I'm gonna tackle my own problems, like my interviews and applications woes. (Oh, the horror of pre-university work!!) And I've got my crush to worry about, but that's a post for another day. I WILL tackle my own problems myself, thank you very much. I know that ranting around, and posting stuff on Facebook and Twitter and blogs, saying how bad this problem is gonna be and how it'll affect the country and how it shouldn't be and calling the world unproductive and generally not doing anything productive won't solve anything, so I won't. I hope. I'm kinda unpredictable.

And then I'll face life.

But until then, Imma keep a song in my heart and just keep swimming. Because I'm bulletproof and I'll think to myself: What a wonderful world.

These songs are kinda sad, I think. So I'll put Gangnam Style on my heart's playlist, for kicks. What? That song is awesome!



Maybe all I need is a glass of soda and perspective and listen to what little pieces of paper are thinking about right now. I think I'll go and get one now. Cya later.
