Boobs on Bikes-Say NO to Pornography!

On the 20th of August, about 100,000 dirty perving Aucklanders, filled up every corner of Queen Street just to see the annual parade "Boobs on Bikes". Haha, yeah, boobs.

According to NZ Herald, 'Boobs on Bikes' is an annual parade that acts as an advertising prequel to the Erotica expo. It is basically consist of porn stars and some amateur rolling down Queen Street on motorbikes with their tits out.

Before that, The Human Rights Foundation and the Auckland Women's Centre piloted a little parade own their own; I think they were about 100 of them, ahead of the boobs, with the lovely catchphrase like "Porn Feuls Rape", "Pornography Fuels Sexual Violence" etc. Overall, the protest parade 'sucked' for me. The was no music or anything, and they just had signs up with angry phrases about pornography fuelling sexual violence. Then, right after the protest parade, all the boobs came; huh, that's so weird right?

Wheel of life

Our struggle in life make us who we are. When we are on the down side of the wheel, we strive to make the best of it. When we are on the up side of the wheel, we should still make the best of it. This is to prepare us when we go down again. Who said that? Yeah I know famous philosophers will say life is like a wheel, it has its ups and downs but at times your wheel is not round and you seem to be down all the time waiting aimlessly and guess what; it will happen.

It is not fair but who said that life is fair?

Sometimes when you think you have a good day and suddenly a bird decided that your face looks like his toilet bowl and there goes your day. May be when we are constantly hit with bad news that we are actually surprised when good news; sometimes never comes along, suddenly appear. Can we stop the wheel from turning? Can we push it to turn quickly? Not until the bird comes back and says open up my faithful bowl, I have another surprise for you!

I remember

I remember the time

When I was in primary school

I wrote poems

reflected my feelings

and most of them for girls that i like.

I remember waking up with lines

and verses on my head

and write them on my notebook

so I won't forget.

I remember I used to read them

to my friends and to this girl I love.

I remember when I

losing my book of poems.

I remember

how devastated I was losing it.

It's been ages.

What could've happened with my book?

I remember.

Congratulation; Lee Chong Wei

I would like to congratulate Lee Chong Wei for a job well done! Thank you because you are the only one who got a medal for our country. It is not that easy to beat Lin Dan and i know you have tried your best. Lin Dan is solid player with good defence and he is quick and the tactics you employed with him by playing a patient game didn't work. You should showed a variety in your strokes and you need that element of surprise to beat him.

Most of my friends were very frustrated and blamed him by saying that 'he's not playing well that night'. But i know you have gave the best, for the tournament. I also like to thank because the relationship between Chong Wei and his coach, which should be a good example for all Malaysians on how we as a Malaysian should be united and live in harmony. The first guy he hugged was his coach, it is not shaking hands but they were hugging! Maybe if there are many people hugging each other like that, our country will be much more safe and peaceful.

Thank you also to Chong Wei who planned a 'charity game' to help Misbun's wife who is sick. I hope that many people will go there and support him.

If you want to know what is 'Independence', those examples are the best way to describe it.

Missing Stuffs

Have u experienced missing an object when u really know the spot where u placed it (then u double checked it, do the extensive searching and all), all of a sudden hours or days later it shows up on the exact same spot where u placed it (even if u know nobody would take it or there's no person to meddle with your stuffs).. damnn!!
