Turn on the caption at Youtube if you want the English subs.

The above short anime was independently created by a group of independent animators.

It tells the story of a girl who confessed to the boy she likes but got rejected straight away.

It’s nice and if you have the time (more or less 2 minutes), do watch it. You won’t regret it. Even non-anime lovers.

Also, it seems that many people have seen scenes like in the anime in their dreams, moving at the great speed…

Bunkface’s wikipedia page was deleted by an overzealous editor. Apparantly this fella has some sort of discrimination towards stubs.

“Does not indicate the importance or significance of the subject” is a lame excuse to delete an article wholesale. It’s like deleting Peterpan or All American Rejects when the article is still new.

And for those who don’t know it, Bunkface is a Malaysian band who sung “Through My Window”, a song used in TMNet’s latest advertisement.

The band’s singing is so good that its comparable to American bands’.

On the 1st of August, 1999, a group of children in Japan had their first encounter with monsters known as Digimon. It was at a location known as Odaiba.

If it weren’t for that event that day, many of us might not have be who and where we are today.

We wouldn’t have known Digimon. Some of us wouldn’t be fans of animes. Some of us won’t be drawing fanarts, CG and writing fan fictions. Some of us won’t be starting websites and forums and some of us won’t have made AMVs. We wouldn’t have met others who are also fans of the series and some of us would have ended up never knowing each other.

Therefore, every year on the August 1, a memorial was held to remember that important day.

The year 2009 was its 10th anniversary. A celebration was held worldwide on the 1st of August 2009 and many AMVs were made by the Digimon fans in general.

Joe Kido would have been 23 years old this year and Takeru Takahashi would have been 18 years old, like yours truly. Time flies by. People grow up.

But it will always be a good memory.

The other day, Namewee was writing a new song when a blackout suddenly occured at Muar. He became so mad that he went over to the TNB office to do some scolding.

For doing that, he has received several negative comments, including:

1. He is looking for “publisiti murahan” (cheap publicity).
2. “Baru tiga kali setahun pun nak bising”.
3. “Cina Komunis”

To reply to the first one, only worthy news gets to be publicized widely. Besides that, Namewee does not need to do “cheap publicity” – HE ALREADY HAS ALL THE PUBLICITY AND ATTENTION. Only those who criticize him wants “cheap publicity” and attention. In fact, only people in Malaysia would use the word “cheap publicity” to cover everything as if there’s no problem at all.

To reply to the second one, huh, you live in the jungle. In Singapore, a blackout only occur once in ten years, and for a very short period only too! That is the comparison. Those who support TNB with this lame excuse deserve to get more blackout… and no internet so that they would not be able to leave such comments.

To the third one, you’re just a freaking racist who is not progressive at all and deserves to be ignored by all means. Amen.

Seriously, these people who support TNB live in the jungle. It seems as if these people like to live in the dark. In my opinion, now that someone has spoken about the blackout, if you don’t want to live without electricity, support him lah. =.=;;

Here’s my message to those who had the guts to tell Namewee off: Go live in the jungle, man.

The way Namewee has presented himself made him look very bad in the eyes of some (he did lots and lots of swearing), but it is his noble intention that made him a hero in the eyes of those who want to see Malaysia become a developed country.

It’s not about whether it’s a breakdown or it’s a shutdown – It’s about the FACT THAT THERE IS NO ELECTRICITY! Should it be like this: “Breakdown? Takpe.” No way! I mean, seriously, these people has to discard their “tak apa” mentality. Fight for your rights, man! >__>

There may be only three blackouts in Muar in a year, but here in Kota Kinabalu, it’s like thirty blackouts a year! You know how damning it is, especially for us who live in the city?

Those who have closely monitored the local Sabahan political arena recently through the internet (the mainstream media seems strangely quiet) would have noticed that a major opposition party in Sabah here is having some ‘internal squabbles’. That party is none other than Keadilan, the party with the largest share of parliament seat among the opposition parties in Malaysia and is eying to win more seats in the future elections, especially in Sabah and Sarawak where a bulk is currently with the BN. In order to do so, a local political stalwart by the name of Geoffrey Gapari Kitingan, or better known as Jeffrey Kitingan, has been recruited to help win the support of the public towards Keadilan.

Jeffrey Kitingan is not a man without controversies – he is one of those politicians who locals would call “katak” for hopping parties* so frequently that people are getting tired of him. He started off from Parti Bersatu Sabah (PBS) before moving on to Parti Bersatu Rakyat Sabah (PBRS), then Parti Angkatan Keadilan Rakyat (AKAR Bersatu), then back into PBS again, and then to United Pasokmomogun Kadazandusun Murut Organisation (UPKO). He was left party-less after that. In 2003, he applied to join the United Malays National Organisation (UMNO) but his application was rejected. He then, under the invitation of Anwar Ibrahim, joined Keadilan, was appointed Vice-President, and ran for the Keningau Parliament seat and the Bingkor state seat in the 2008 General Elections. He lost both narrowly.

As recent as a few days ago, Jeffrey announced that he had resigned as Vice-President of Keadilan. This is apparently due to the dissatisfaction that he hasn’t been appointed as Sabah Keadilan chief after Azmin Ali has been booted out from the post. Instead, Ahmad Thamrin Jaini, a muslim leader from the east coast of Sabah, was appointed to the post. It is interesting to note that this Thamrin fella contested against Musa Aman, the current Chief Minister of Sabah in the Sungai Sibuga seat in the last election. Who gets to sit at the state chief post may get to become CM if Keadilan wins the most seat in the next election, and that’s why the seat is pretty hot and many are fighting over it.

Actually, I have noticed the whole squabble as early as 9th of October when I have first heard that Azmin is probably going to be booted out as state chief after several division were dissatisfied with his performance. Then, I heard that the decision to replace Azmin as head of the state became apparent on the 14th of October when I read this article from Haris Ibrahim. Then there’s the memorandum signed by 18 divisions, Zaid’s mission to check on the state (and allergly getting sabotaged by Azmin), Anwar allergly saying “No way in hell will I have Jeffrey as chief“, and finally, Jeffrey’s resignation as Vice-president. Then again, we were shocked by another bombshell, this time dropped by none other than Christina Liew – she resigned as a member of the Central Committee of Keadilan!

I don’t care about Jeffrey Kitingan’s departure as he is a known “katak”, he may quit his post for all he wants, but now when even Christina, one of the early founders of Keadilan Sabah, is not keeping quiet and has quit her national position, this shows that the level of dissatisfaction among local Keadilan leaders towards the central leadership is at a worrying level. However in my opinion she shouldn’t have quit. Unlike Jeffrey Kitingan who was appointed, she was voted in as CC by the central delegates and therefore by quitting, she has, how should I put it… betrayed those who had placed their trust in her within the party! I know she may have lost her deputy state chief post to Kong Hong Ming (another “katak”), but that’s just a small matter… those who humiliated her mother should be ashamed of themselves! There’s nothing to be ashamed of for fighting for the people! I am sure that if Keadilan were to become state government, Christina would definitely be appointed a member of the state cabinet, and probably a Deputy Chief Minister?

What I am glad is, for now, both Jeffrey and Christina are still in PKR. If they were to leave then I don’t know what I’ll think of them – kataks?

I don’t really fancy party hopping. In spite of that, party hoping is made possible, and the only thing that is viable, after the Constitution of Malaysia has been edited to disallow an assemblyperson or member of parliament from re-election within five years if they were to resign. That’s is a farcical rule, I say. It may now work for the BN, but one day it’ll go against them.
