Holiday....

Just go back from holidays... ada sedih, ada marah, ada tersilap bahasa, tapi semua tuh bleh di maafkan.... yang penting... most of the trip... was kick ass BEST!!!! i think one of the best part has to be driving down the desert heading towards grand canyon with born to be wild soundtrack playing at the back. again... kalau ada terkasar, terdisrespect... beribu maaf saya pohonkan.

Human Standards....

One of my friend has already pointed this point... i wanted to point it earlier heh... but she got to it first. anyway... what are human standards? somehow i was thinking about this for a long time. technically most of us are living our whole lives to reach that human standards. goals. some of them are ridiculous, some probably benefit us, some we really need to reach. but do we really need to follow most of the standards? standards that'll make us a stereotype of what others want, what other think is the best, and only the best could achieve. medias, our friends, and our parents themselves gave us a mindset of what the best could be.

but if everyone already has the same stereotype of... the BEST... and everyone is going in that direction, than, no one could be unique. TV giving us countdowns of the best top 40 songs, where everyone listens to avril and her being in the top 20 (i dont know which number she actually is but i dont really care coz i think she's not punk and tries to --> my standard), giving us worst 40 songs... if it was worst 40 songs... then why'd they like it the first time? tv shows like mtv cribs, or "it's good to be...", gives us a view how so called life should be. lavish, rich, big house, chrome rims. the swan, biggest loser, gives us a standard of what our image should be... if ur slightly buncit, you are ugly, if you have stretch marks, you're hideous, if you have to much pimple, girls are not going to like you, if you have big heads, men arent going to go out with you... all standards. should we be consumed by all the injection of the media, trying to make us all brad pitt look alike, and those who doesnt, will be damned to the side of the ugly gollum for all eternity until they evolve.

scholarships, peers view and comments, GRADES, SPM, SCHOLARSHIP, standards.... if you get higher than 10 aggregate, you're bound to Malaysia's ground forever, if you study here in OVERSEAS, you're better than studying in UKM, UM, UiTM. all standards... standards that everyone think how the best should be. being a petronas scholar would take you to the top. being in JPA would probably wind you up in debt for eternity. news from ear to ear, comments from heart to heart. but is it really something that all of us need to pursue? does it benefit everyone. bill gates defied harvard, now he is in microsoft, eminem defies the stereotypical of hiphop and becomes a music genius, mahathir defies the west and take the east and brought our country to such a far stretch, so is standard everything?

We could probably be the best if we do not follow the crowd... but instead, making the crowd follow you. then, it makes you the best. bukan jadik kepala gangster semua org ikut, abis samseng aa ingat. nak carik gaduh, belasah sorang, ajak geng korok dier. berani one on one laa. wont it be great if you could be one of these leaders. wont it be great if I was.... defying standards... its up to ourselves... and what's inside......
