Let Them Eat Cake

Image
" Let them eat cake " is the translation of the French phrase " Qu'ils mangent de la brioche " - the princess named Mary replied upon being told that the peasants had no bread . The peasants doesn't have any thing on their tables anymore. At times, seeing these sort of margins of wealth can be misleading. Dont get me wrong, if you earn it rightfully, by all means, go and can spend it on whatever you like. But when the money or wealth is sourced out from different means, the universe will light a way on these mistakes. Just like how the Germans got hold of a set of Bugatti's. Apparently the set of super-cars was related to 1MDB. Not to be confused with IMDB.  Just click here if you want to know about the infamous 1MDB I just hope all these detached ( entitled ) rich people open their eyes or perhaps, go find a key to open a door in your hearts.  W hen Siddhartha Gautama was born, Asita predicted that he would be either become a great chakravartin ( a gr...

  1. Design a system where everyone needs to be busy chasing money, stress them out with loan/inflation structure ( 9 years for automobiles and 30 years for property) , addictive 7pm telenovela and distractions.   2. Work with property developers to make the city busier, bad road design to contribute traffic jams. Make sure they spend time on the road.   3. Ensure their kids spend more time in school but learning less, make sure the class is filled with 45 or 50 students. Make sure the teachers are tired, stressed so they couldn't even have time for themselves.   4. Feed the students into generic universities, community college franchise located nationwide with more generic degrees so they can graduate with minimum salary to start their life with debts.   5. Repeat step No.1

Raya is the only time where we get invitations and visitationns from your closest friends. As usual the session is a complete joy made of conversations. This time is special, when you got to know your close pals recovered and kick cancer unto the ground. Raya Yang Beruntung So catching time with Hasnul and my former dean turned to creative collaborator, we never fail to compare notes. Few times, ideas can kena curi too. Three of us are known to be involved in so many cross collaborative projects that is hard to categorized.  What is laughable is knowing that your former school is organizing a "memory lane" crap .  Im one of those who cant be bothered with reliving these. We keep moving on, proceeding from one adventure into the next.  from left - Hasnul, Dato Najib Dawa I simply got no time to step back nor take a breather to see where and how far we had arrived.  What is important is NOW.  The power of now. We focus entirely unto the present moment .  Any...

A Love Letter

a love letter to the original trilogy.  i stopped completely from buying any Star Wars stuffs ( including the ones released by Lego ), the new trilogy successfully turned me off big time, while Disney continue to pumping out every milk they could get from the property, Star Wars honestly is worn out and losing enough steam.  knowing my UCS Star Destroyer successfully collecting dusts, turned yellowish and brittle ( no thanks to our weather ), most of the parts are drying, cracking and dying. Just like how all of my 1/6 figures where their "leather" breaking up, I realized that its time for me to stop getting all these, ( mind you Lego is not cheap ).  So the process of dismantling everything and salvaged the ones that is still acceptable, keeping it aside in order to build the ones i really want.  below are my fav ones which i took some time to build. Stormie E11 EC17 Hold Out Blaster i got a soft spot for the Scout Troopers, with their bad ass Speeder Bikes. an effi...
