Top 10 Ways Climbing the Modern Social Ladder

Social Networking

Nowadays climbing up a social ladder is defined by how many friends you have on Facebook, how many followers you have on Twitter, how many blogs you run on the internet, how many birthday wishes you got when your birthday come around. Believe it or not, the times when being popular means you have lots of friends, great attitude and how successful you are in life is now fading over.

Virtual friends are the key to social success and it has been a vicious cycle of backstabbing and sweet talking. Thus, I would like to share with you the tips to become acceptable in this modern society:

Donald Trump for President

1. Pretend to be someone else. If you are just Tom, Dick or Harry this will not take you anywhere. Try pretending to be Donald Trump the President. Be arrogant, be over the top, and be powerful; even if it’s just by pretending to be one.





Lady Gaga Fashion

2. Weirdo is in. Or conventional people called it “sense of individuality”. To achieve it, you must be constantly committed in being a unique person; the easiest way is through fashion. Every time you dress up, ask yourself, “what Lady Gaga would wear?”

3. Participate in all social events; invitation is not really necessary. Especially when it is one of those social networking events. You will gain more followers and friends by attending these events. If you manage to be one of the organizers, it will be a bonus point!

Rich People


4. Splurge on expensive things. Money can’t buy happiness, but money can buy fake friends and thus buy you popularity that you seek for.

5. Stop working or appear like you are not working. Hanging up late at night with your friends even it’s a weekday. Remember, being popular is not without sacrifice even it is your sleep.

6. Regular doses of emotional breakdown. Try creating an imaginary scene where someone is doing bad things to you and trying expending your make believe story from there. Preferably to do in any of your social networking sites. Nothing screams popular other than superficial breakdown forever noted by your virtual friends.

Noob

7. Make yourself superior; always condescending others. It’s all about you. You must have opinions on ever thing that your friends said, lack of one will make you look like a noob (definition of noob: know little and have no will to learn any more).

8. Be good at something. Some people are expert in making jokes, singing, dancing, or when you realized that you are good at nothing, try bitching. People may love you or hate you, but the truth is, they can’t stop talking about you.

Cloud Girlfriend

9. Everyone is your best friend. (Refer to point 7).

10. Be a yes man. Especially when you are dealing with another person with a higher hierarchy of the social ladder. Be a good follower and perhaps the “Higher” will take you with him to the top.

Fake Friends

There you go, Top 10 (should be secrets, thank you) Ways Climbing the Modern Social Ladder. Caution: it might cost you few real friends, extreme fatigue, couples of backstabbing, sweat and tears and few “crazy” muttering by your virtual friends. No worries, keep the glitz and glamour life close to your heart and happy climbing! Cheers!

10 Ways to Make Your Reading Fun!

If you were banished to a desert island, and you could only take one thing with you, would it be a book? A recent survey in the Netherlands: 43% would take their TV set with them, 17% the radio, and 17% a stack of magazines. But no one mentioned taking a book! These are the 10 ways to make your reading more fun! 

10 Ways to Make Your Reading Fun!

1. Start reading your book
If you've read some of it already, just start there. Buy or borrow a book from your friends.

2. Judge a book by it’s cover
Contrary to popular saying, always judge a book by it’s cover.

3. Take your time
Take a break if it's getting too frustrating or tedious. Especially if the storyline is too heavy, you might want to read it in stages and digest everything in one page at the time

4. Make it as a gift
Everything is more exciting dressed in wrapping paper and a bow.

5. Read it out loud
Speak in different voices for different characters, and voice their emotions. It may sound childish, but it usually works.


6. Book VS Movie
In my opinion, it's best to read the book before you watch the movie. However, if you've already watched the movie, you can picture the characters and scenery as shown in the film. That's always fun to do!


7. Choose your book well
You can choose your favorite genre; chick flicks, comedy, black comedy, fiction, non-fiction, fantasy, biography etc. Suitable fonts, illustration, colors, type of papers.

8. Imagination is the key!
Let your imagination run wild.

9. Reading buddy
Find a friend that shared the same interest with you – you can share the reviews of the books, open up to different authors or genre based on your friends’ suggestions.

10. Encourage others
Your family and friends and try to cultivate reading habits from an early stage.


P/S: I am now reading The Finkler Question by Howard Jacobson!

Top 10 Even Weirdest Gifts of All

Top 10 Weirdest Gift - Hand Bra
After my grandma’s birthday party and my weirdest gift of all time posts, I am as curious as the Night Fury that I saw in the How to Train Your Dragon movie last week. Therefore, after doing some Internet researches, I listed out the top 10 weirdest gifts I ever saw. This is way weirder than my super cute Genghis Khan’s poop. Continue reading for more!


1. Nothing
Top 10 Weirdest Gift - Nothing
Wondering what is the best gift to give to your friends? Especially when he or she can have anything and everything in the world (I hate when it’s time to figure out what to give to my rich friends)? Then, a simple gift like a gift of Nothing is sufficient! I just can’t stop laughing reading the descriptions in the ads:

Indeed even old Macbeth, though mad as a kipper, realised that life, whilst full of sound and fury (and that was before iPods) is inherently daft and ultimately signifies Nothing. And let us not forget, that 'Nothing' is so important that most of our universe - and the contents of a lot of people's heads - appears to be made up of it. It's a statement, an empty gesture if you will, a nod at the futility of ownership, and yet despite 'Nothing' being nothing, it is of course packed with millions of protons, neutrons and what have you, which is pretty good for Nothing.

Wow. Macbeth and iPods are mentioned in the same line! How thing has changed!


2. Pickle Bandages
Top 10 Weirdest Gift - Pickle Bandages
If you’re an avid worshiper of Pickles like Snooki from the Jersey Whores Shore, then this gift is perfect for you!


3. Sharp-end Cat Pencil Sharpener
Top 10 Weirdest Gift - Cat Pencil Sharpener
“Simply stick your pencil into the cats behind, push and hear it meow!” Ouch! Oh and it includes a litter tray to catch all the shavings. How considered!


4. Sperm Bank
Top 10 Weirdest Gift - Sperm Bank
Okay, I had to admit that I don’t mind receiving this Sperm Bank as a gift. It’s made of ceramic and looks kinda cute. However, I don’t think the coins will fit throughout its tail.


5. Butt/Face Soap
Top 10 Weirdest Gift - Butt/Face Soap
Studies show that 93% of people begin their showers by soaping the lower regions and working upwards. That means that 9 out of 10 people rub something against their face that, only moments earlier, was gliding and probing where the sun don't shine. So now you know... The scents are added so you won't realize you're washing your face with tush-tainted soap.


Based on this statistic, I just want to say; Thank God for the invention of liquid soap!


6. Undercap
Top 10 Weirdest Gift - Undercap
If your friends have a bold fashion statement, you can give this Undercap as a present. Instead of wearing the normal hats or snow hats, they can wear this super cool cap. Although you can also just give them your white underwear and say it’s the Undercap. Multipurpose gift? How one can resist?


7. Fake Tattoo Sleeves
Top 10 Weirdest Gift - Fake Tattoo Sleeves
I saw this sleeves first in The Big Bank Theory, an awesome TV Series by the way. A couple of hard core nerds are trying to tackle emo/gothic girls in the bar wearing that sleeves. Then, a few weeks later, I saw one boy actually wore this Fake Tattoo Sleeves in a shopping complex in Kuala Lumpur. Darn. I am sure before long it will become a trend. It definitely will look hideous on a skinny body.


8. Dick Towel
Top 10 Weirdest Gift - Dick Towel
This sure is fun gift for your male friends (I’m not sure if there is a version for female). Are you prefers to wear a significant shrinkage Dick Towel or do you prefer to wear a drop to the floor-penis-look? Either way, your butt will definitely be hanging in the breeze!


9. P-Mate Singles Female Disposable Urine Director
Top 10 Weirdest Gift - P-Mate
Gender equality is one of the most respectable achievements that human kind had achieved. For your ladies friends who’re strong upholding the same values, you can give them this P-Mate Singles Female Director. Oh and it’s disposable. You basically just need a water proof cardboard, fold it into a cone shape and let the water flow freely inside the cone. Yet another amazing achievement has taken place.


10. Real Squirrel Feet Earring or Necklace
Top 10 Weirdest Gift - Real Squirrel Feet Earring or Necklace
I think this should not be categorized as “weird”, fallen more into the “scary” or “exotic” gift categories. And even scarier, the Real Squirrel Feet Earring or Necklace were already sold out! Are you really willing to wear its earring or necklace? If someone bought this for me, I will frame it and put it in my living room.

Top 10 Weirdest Gift - Real Squirrel Feet
There you go, my Top Ten Even Weirdest Gifts of All. Even my Genghis Khan's poop looks tame now. I will not responsible for any possible friendship disruption due to any of these gifts. I hope you enjoy it. Do leave me a comment or two! See ya in the next post!

Anger Management

(UPDATED: Shortened this post. It is indeed a little bit too long even for my standard. LOL)

Don't Make Me Angry | Arkworld

Okay, finally I am back online. Your level of laziness is literally multiplied by a hundred time when you know that your holiday is arriving to its ends. Of course it was getting worst when I am too mixed up with my bad mood about SOME of my subscribed blogs, readers, odd visitors, my self, my parents, politician and human worldwide. I am not actually sure why my anger/dissatisfaction (I am not even sure what it is but it is mostly anger) is building up fast inside of me. Finally last night, after watching an interesting match between Spain and Germany (in which Spain won) for EURO08 finale, I dreamt about scolding and screaming at several people who do not have any connection with my reality, but just because they were at the wrong place at wrong time to be in my dream.

I was in a restaurant having my meal with my parents when something is not up to my level of satisfaction and thus, I spilled out my anger towards them.Yes, I know it isn't healthy for my physiological state - finding a way to solve my problem in semi conscious mind instead of facing it in reality but I also feel quite relief after I woke up. Oh my, I should start making appointment to see one of my readers, which also a counselor, Waliz to spend countless hours and money just for talking 'to a friend'. No offense Waliz.

What Is Anger?

Anger is "an emotional state that varies in intensity from mild irritation to intense fury and rage," according to Charles Spielberger, PhD, a psychologist who specializes in the study of anger. Like other emotions, it is accompanied by physiological and biological changes; when you get angry, your heart rate and blood pressure go up, as do the levels of your energy hormones, adrenaline, and noradrenaline. (blah blah blah - I just copy and paste).

In a normal words, anger is when you feel something boiling up inside you and you feel like wanna punch somebody. In case you are an alien from outer space, this feeling (or what they say, emotion) is a normal for an average person. However, it is becoming a problem when you can't control it and it affects your daily routine.

What Cause Your Anger?

If you want me to list out 100 things that will trigger my anger button, I be well passed 150 by now. To summary the very long list, I think what really make me angry is reoccurrence of human stupidity. I know it is a very strong word to use, but it is true. Whether it is other people stupidity; translation: when one person made a stupid decision and others will have to suffer the pain, or when people are taking advantages from your own stupidity; such as cheated on you in your less knowledgeable field. It is a natural thing for ordinary human to make mistake due to its own imperfections, but, we should all learn from the past and try to avoid it to reoccurs again.

Identify Your Source Of Anger


These questions might be helpful. Do you express anger in a way that overwhelms you and others? Do you get angry more often than most people you know? Do you get angrier than is necessary? Do you use threatening language or gestures? Do you get angry enough to hit, throw or kick things, people or animals? Do you seethe for hours? Do you hide angry feelings from others or try to suppress your feelings? Do you use alcohol or drugs to calm your rage? Do you experience physical reactions such as muscle tension or a racing heart when you get angry? Does expressing your anger usually leave you feeling better about yourself and the person who angered you?

I think Victoria Beckham is very pretty, but she seems to think that
smiling is not fashionable. So, I decided to lend her a smile from one of
my favorite TV series character to her. Check my other blog to

Anger Management Tips

The problem is not anger, the problem is the mismanagement of anger. Mismanaged anger and rage is the major cause of conflict in our personal and professional relationships. Domestic abuse, road rage, workplace violence, divorce, and addiction are just a few examples of what happens when anger is mismanaged. Here are some of the anger management tips (partially extracted from MayoClinic.com) to help get your anger under control:
  1. Take a time out
  2. Do something physically exerting
  3. Find ways to calm and soothe yourself
  4. Once you're calm, express your anger as soon as possible so that you aren't left stewing
  5. Think carefully before you say anything
  6. Work with the person who angered you
  7. Use "I" statements when describing the problem to avoid criticizing or placing blame
  8. Forgive the other person
  9. Keep an anger log/list
  10. Use humor to release tensions
There you go. Please, please, please, make this world a better place and easier for you and me. Oh, and please do not try to underestimate my intelligence by posting unrelated and general comments that only show you are not actually read my post. I know it usually very long and will take your valuable time to read it, but it already took mine a lot to make all those posts. I really have many things to take care off towards the end of my holiday rather than handling my anger problem yet in my dream again. Thank you.

Forgive My French


Language is the most interesting (and damn hard) subject to learn. At a "tender" age of 20, I already learn several languages such as English, Arabic and the latest is French. And of course, there is my mother tongue (why they don't call it father tongue?) language which is Bahasa Melayu (or Malay language or Bahasa Malaysia. Whichever they call it now). I always wanted to write a post in Malay but I am not confident enough with my ability to construct beautiful sentences that will captivate my readers (I never had an "A" for my Bahasa Melayu subject in school). So, just hope that the day will come soon.

Language may sometimes misinterpreted. The ability to diagnose a language must be achieved with a full consideration of its culture and where the place of language is spoken. How we portraits our ideas into words, to make a sentence just to form an understandable argument. It's a hard process to learn a new language. Sometimes, your tongue just couldn't handle it. As my Indian friend once said, we need a short tongue to learn Malay language, a shorter one to learn English, and a longer one to learn Tamil's. Can anyone tells me how to grow your tongue LONGER?

So, in the midst of my struggling to learn French, I flip up my ultimate guide into the French language, which is The Complete Idiot's Guide to Learning French On Your Own, and it stated that there are ten reasons only why you should learn French:

  1. You love Colette's romance novels.
  2. You'd like to root for the Montréal Canadiens in French.
  3. You loved Les Misérables so much that you decided to read the original version in its entirety—all 600 plus pages.
  4. You want to avoid ordering francs with mustard and sauerkraut.
  5. You never know when you're going to run into Catherine Deneuve.
  6. You want to impress your date at a French restaurant.
  7. You love French movies but find the subtitles too distracting.
  8. They won't let you onto the topless beach in Martinique without it.
  9. Two words: French Fries.
  10. You want to meet St. Exupéry's “Little Prince.”
Note: I only know what the heck he's talking about start from the number 6 and higher. So, which one is my reason for learning French? It's not even there! I wanted to learn French because of its beauty and for the art of the language itself. I wanted to feel good, sexy and could make anyone drooling in my presence. It's the same feeling when you wish to learn British accent so that your partner will mistakenly think that you're as hot and as sexy as Jude Law. Or when you have the urge to learn Chinese so that you will be master in kungfu. Or when you though that if you speak in Korean or Japanese, you will be automatically beautiful (without any clear gender line) and your partner will somehow become irresistible-dolly-cute.

Oh, and it may be because I will be having my short holiday there. I will be going to Paris for 10 days (or more) with my family. My flight will leave this Sunday, which means I have to go to Kuala Lumpur either tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. I am not sure whether I will bring along my laptop, so just in case I am not, I just want to tell all my readers that I am won't be updating my blog until I am back to Malaysia.

This year has done plenty of good things for me. Nevertheless, when it comes to my study, it was one of the most busy, mind breaking, hormone building year. I am looking forward for the half of this 2008 year! Have a great week, and happy holiday everyone!!

à bientôt (so long),

I Never Know Conservation of Energy is This Fun(ny)!

My university received the 5 stars university rating last year (the only university in Malaysia to received it! Sorry, can't help but to mention it :) So, in an attempt to live up to its name (or so does it seems to me) it bans all the usage of "WHITE COFFIN" in its My Green Pledge campaign.
When the dark is lurking by. The sun is falling fast. The creeping start to walk down your sleeves. Your stomach heart is beating fast. Red eyes seems to follow you from behind. Any movement and steps will expose you to the most dangerous creature in the name of .. polystyrene.
Innocent student 1: White coffin?? What the heck is that?
Innocent student 2: That means a polystyrene. They said the name polystyrene is not cool enough for people like us.
Innocent student 3 Me: Well, it has been the trend nowadays. Everything related to death seems to be in our way. With death, I mean Gothic style.
Innocent student 1: Not bad. It does intriguer me.

So, without the usage of this white coffin, it seems to me that people are tends to finish their meals at the cafeteria rather than taking it back to the resident area. Which is the good sign to ensure that students will become fatter each day. Oh, don't let me start on foods. Most of the cafeterias are using a new biodegradable food container (which coincidently look like a polystyrene but in it defends, biodegradable)

Others that include in the Green Pledge are:

Eat the cafeteria. Finish your meal
Ok. So, when I was a kid, my parents always said something like this, "Finish your meal. Do you know that kids in Bosnia die in starvation?" (no offense Bosnians) and being an obedient child, I will finish my meal. However, the effect of those saying has faded. Now, it occurs to me that I can't finish my meal because I'm imaging other kids in third world country in starvation (and sometimes, adult in first world country too. No offense people in USA, Britain and Europe)

Use own reusable food and drink container
However, please eat your own food, not others.

Save paper. Think before you print. Print on both side of paper
Not only that, please use the smallest font available. To save the world, we need to sacrifice our vision. After all, what is the use of inventions such as laser surgery, spectacle and contact lens? You do want to save nature, do you?

Switch off light, fans and other electrical equipment when not in use
You could always carry a bulb in your purse or pocket. Each time you want to use a certain room, just put in the bulb into the socket. Then, go searching for your lamp switch. In case you can't find it in the darkness, do carry along a torch light with you. When you're finish using the room, take our the bulb and go find another room to bright it up. The motto will be "One home, one bulb". This will reduce the energy usage and thus your electrical bill.

Walk, cycle and use public transportation more often
In this context, "public transportation" will also means "your friend vehicle". Use this excuse as many as you can until your friend are getting tired of using his own vehicle. Then, you can both use the real public transport (two is always better than one).

Buy product which you could use for a long time
Clothes is define as a product for short term use. This means that you must try to be naked as much as possible. It's much better than you're using fur. As PETA said, I rather go naked than wearing fur. If only others will hear their voice more. Keep up the good work PETA!

Don't use screen saver. Turn off or blank your monitor when not in use
If you don't want to use your computer anymore, you could always modified your monitor to become an aquarium. You could then use the money for the fish tank, to buy some condom. Less people = less pollution. Do you follow me?

Turn off your tab while brushing your teeth
Avoid using tab water while brushing your teeth. Use Listerine instead to rinse your mouth. It states here at the cover of Listerine, antiseptic mouthwash, kills gems that cause bad breath, plaque and the gum infection, gingivitis. Well, needless to say, does your tab water work that great?

Use electronic facilities to store and read document
More dependent of electronic facilities means less dependent on brain. How convenient!

Practice the 4R's - Refuse, Reduce, Reuse and Recycle
"Refuse" to do homework or assignment (as it use a lot of papers), "Reduce" the dependency of your brain (as stated above), "Reuse" everything that you have (I mean, everything) and "Recycle" your old clothes (inherits it to your younger brother)

There you go. Conserve your environment in a fun way. Just make sure that you would not blame me in any mishaps when undergoes my carefully planned steps. Keep our environment clean and sustainable, course if you not, the mother nature could always destroy you later.

So, tell us more about what you have done and intended to do? Don't worry if you haven't done it yet. Maybe someone will read your steps and follow! Just like I wish mine. :D
