Selamat Hari Merdeka Malaysia yang ke 52....

Selamat menyambut bulan kemerdekaan kepada semua rakyat Malaysia...


Now we are celebrating our 52 of independent day. I can’t deem that time swift so hasty and times leave us without giving us a grip on every single second of the times. People, this may sound shadowy to you but then this is what I feel right now. Those who cant really see what was happening in the era of getting independent status, I guess they may grap a little of the real empaty of understanding of what is indipendent day all about compared to those who were in the epic of independent climax. For sure we may hear the same repetition of slogan “Selamat Hari Merdeka” year by year, yet we do come together to prop up the special day of Malaysia. That sounds so compassionate I guess. But what come to my mind is, I can overtly question you regarding your emotional and spirit level while you are hollering the phases “Selamat Hari Merdeka” either to yourself or to others. How ardent are you while bringing up the phases to public? or you just follow the flow as others are too busy to make the acquaintance of people here and there with the phrases? By not doing the same thing you may be classified as taboo or not being thankful to the nation? Nah, am just asking a question. Should be no harm and offend here. Forgive me if am wrong ya.

Well, am not to blame the occurrence of this tight spot especially among teenagers. Well, we are trying so hard, especially history teachers, to implement the sense of having gratitude and gratified of having such emancipation among teenagers. Most of teachers try so hard to make sure that the sense of independent day is not sheer a slogan to be shouted and celebrated by every August. Save for, it should be a reminisce and evoke with full of your heart’s content. Well, for us as a language teacher, we use language to scummy their oblivious imagery of the exact meaning about our “kemerdekaan” .

So, starting form this ideology the “nation and nationhood” comes across universities curriculum but not in schools. This may sound weird to people outside there, but we use English to make students understand the sense of nationality and the nationhood using the perspective of language.we use language to implement the sense of self identity and history appreciaton within a culture(for instance,malaysia culture).But,we are teaching history to students about the awarness of loyalty,and creating a frame of nationality,malaysia courtesy,and spreading the ideology of being a malaysian with a wide range of economy,social,politic and enviroment.well,correct me if am worng as all these are just a humble prespective of mine.


As you can see, language is a core mediator that both empowered and shaped the human brain such that 'culture' and 'identity' (as a human) was rooted in the acquisition and exercising of language skills. That seems fine as language is the primary mediator which is utilized to define and name your environment socially. So having one language as distinct from another must therefore be a primary source of one's identity.

Ok, the example is like this:-

But, of course, it can never be that simple. Dogs have one "language" and a dog from China can communicate seemlessly with another from Botswana or Chile. So groups of dogs, if we were in Animal Farm mode, are very unlikely to get into national self determination despite the fact that greyhounds are separate breed from fox terriers.(adapeted from www. eftclickblog.blogspot.com/2008/08/language-and-nationhood.html).


So for the conclusion, we do teach students to appreciate the meaning of appreciation of independent day using the “colonial language”. By using the language we give students to think into the perspective of languages- Bahasa Melayu and English by the same token throughout literature. Bear in my that, most of our powerful postcolonial writers (Muhamad Hj. Saleh, Saleh bin Joned and some few names) express their feeling and defiant emotion and voice using English (before and after “kemerdekaan) as the main medium which can be heard by colonizers and decolonizes. Meaning that,both colonials and decolonials can be able to acess each other mind using the english regarding the unspoken voices of decolonials easily.It was because most people (decolonizes) were educated in English medium. Bahasa Melayu comes as the national language after the independent day in order to bring people together to joy the sense of “muhibah” among all Malaysian. I am proud to be Malaysian. Yes I do.

Well, everyone can say the slogan but not everyone can really be aware of the unfathomable meaning of it. I was teaching in a secondary school before and I can see that majority students just take it for granted without any guilty feeling. Yes, literally they know what is the meaning of “kemerdekaan” but figuratively it may sound another way round to me, at least at my own perspective. There are too may ways we can show our cavernous adore and appreciation to our beloved country. Not merely by standing still while singing “Negaraku”, or celebrating the independent day extremely you may say that you truly understand the meaning of independent day. But you can show it maybe throughout the national agenda which is embedded in the educational perspectives and curriculum (just like nation and nationhood ideology), behavior and respect and awareness to each others and always be alert to global agenda which may swift your understanding toward independent ideology. So to conclude these tenets, I shall say “ minda dan jati diri yang berakal glokal (the mind and self identity which has global and local element and) is a must in order to be firm to stand tall while dealing with global nation especially when there is demand between us (postcolonial) with other nations especially our ex-colonizer to cheris and deal with the global needs. The sense of nation and nationhood should be expended to any policies and policy makers in oder to have glokal adenda and policy. Besides that, by having such ideology, I guess we can be aware of being decolonized again. It sounds simple yet hard to be done, isn’t it?

Well, we hardly can point the blame to those people (especially those who born after merdeka) who can really understand the meaning of Merdeka it selft. Coz to feel the exactly meaning you have to get surrounding, psychology and culture supports so you can really have the fullest grasp of what those Independent warriors have been thru. So, what we can do know is to think other new resolutions to help those youngsters in oeder for them to have full of heart’s content of being a Malaysian and be able to articulate as a Malaysian with full of honors (beracuankan Malaysia).

So, I guess, to recap everything, let’s joy and be proud to be Malaysian. Malaysia is a place like no others and to be a Malaysian, we should be proud of Malaysian identities, having national behaviors (perlakuan beracuankan Malaysia) and perspectives all cross times, space and cultures regardless where you may be. So people, Selamat Hari Merdeka dan ingatlah untuk Melaungkan “Saya Anak Malaysia”…..


Take care then, xoxox Josh

Holla peeps, here i guess i need to a short confession for today ( it is Sunday)

so here it is......





( it looks so charming in this look)



(cool with some of great features which are needed for an executive as the phone is to compact with many things.... that why, for me, it can be so immoderation to young executive outside there.)

When you are down?? u shall listen to this beautiful lesson

the story goes like this.....





The girl in the picture is Katie Kirkpatrick, she is 21 . Next to her, her fiancé, Nick, 23.
The picture was taken shortly before their wedding ceremony, held on January 11, 2005 in the US .
Katie has terminal cancer and spend hours a day receiving medication.
In the picture, Nick is waiting for her on one of the many sessions of chemo to end.






In spite of all the pain, organ failures, and morphine shots, Katie is going along with her wedding and took care
of every detail. The dress had to be adjusted a few times due to her constant weigh





An unusual accessory at the party was the oxygen tube that Katie used throughout the ceremony and reception as well.
The other couple in the picture are Nick's parents. Excited to see their son marrying his high school sweetheart..





Katie, in her wheelchair with the oxygen tube , listening to a song from her husband and friends




At the reception, Katie had to take a few rests. The pain did not allow her to stand for long periods







Katie died five days after her wedding day. Watching a woman so ill and weak getting married and with a smile on her face makes us think.....




Happiness is reachable, no matter how long it lasts .
We should stop making our lives complicated.


Life is short
Break the rules
forgive quickly
love truly
laugh constantly
And never stop smiling
no matter how strange life is
Life is not always the party we expected to be
but as long as we are here, we should smile and be grateful.






~am listening to "i'd come for you" by nickelback and this is so nice song to be shared with those passionate and loyal lover outside there ~

Need some spaces




Not in frame of mind now......

Today, I refused to go outside rather than I stayed alone for a short break. I supposed to be in office at 5pm with Maria but then I feel that I need to have a time for my own. Too many things to be sorted out and with all those overload inputs and outputs make me swing. August has a great challenge for me and Maria and the others. We have 90% changes in our next plan which will be effective, at this early September. When it comes to a new plan, obviously there will be a very short time frame for us to digest, comprehend and to get familiar with the plan and its system. Yeah, I still can choose either I want to make it now or later but in business line, first do first serve…I guess I have an ideal axiom for my own. The rational is, you work for yourself to be paid. know lot of people who are outside there have the identical problems as what I have now. Come on, all these things are a rampant while we are in the circle of adulthood So to my other youth, enjoy your youth exceedingly. More than ever when you are in campus or somewhere else…(this message is dedicated to those who are free from any burdens of life or commitments)…Go and don’t stay at campus for no reasons.. Go and have fun…Me?nah, I guess I had so much fun when I was in campus..nah..am not in the part of naive or nerd when it comes to fun. Above all when I was in my undergraduate times….so that why, by this times (I mean while you are having lot of binders, especially from your family, your surrounding, your job, society and the most important is yourselves….) Yet, until now I still have my fun even if my working time is always 10 or 12 hours in a day. No reason for me not to think about my self for such frenzied life…Well, am not a kind of person who is like a small little frog within a glass..he can see everything around him but then has no temerity to be out form it…

Middle age or what ever you may call it….well, what should I say? I took it from a positive side then. I will never give any chance for it to scummy my “teenage feeling” with lot of multifarious surrounding…When it comes to a state of affairs where I guess I need to make choices but by some means i feel blameworthy and hurt, it is not to say that I should say a BIG NO for it. Well, my consideration? Satisfactory? Nah..all that will not be in the first place and not a main disquiet tho! Yeah not at all…It is not a matter whether I like it or not..but in some crucial situations I need to be cruel and harsh even to my self..Do I have to life to my self? Yes…Do I have to loyal to my self? My right side says Yes and another side would be another way around…

My weakness is ..when I confront problems…I will never try to share with others especially those who are too close or first degree or second degree of imminence friends to give me a hand while am in the . Pembuat kek called my for several times…my unprincipled stance is…..i let it rang and I kept hushed.


Ok., people. I would like to jogging to ease all those tense…Jogging makes your body to have lot and lot of hormone (I forgot the name of it) and this will ease your feeling. Come and have a bright day yah…

25 August 2009

a random post...

Nah..think of having a random writing and here it is…








Drink to me only with thine eyes,
And I’ll pledge with mine…Or leave a kiss but in the cup…
Coz I’ll not ask for wine!
Let’s not drink, let’s just sit here…
And look each other….
Any other options? yeah…sure…
Put a kiss inside my goblet, and I wont want anything to drink….

(adapted from some poets)

Langkawi trip.....

holla peeps....


here i would like to post my Langkawi trip which i had on june, 2009 (23 June until 25 june).Pembuat kek and i went to Langkawi and we gambled our direction and time to be there by using a bus. Why am saying this?because we don't have any proper plannings when we both want to shoot the globe. If not, we want to have a really good and cozy vocations…nah for me, the more unbreakable and escapade the more out of the ordinary and exigent the vocations will be. This will make any adventure or vocations seem to be more fascinating and impressive and superb to me…We took a tren from kajang to KL central..then we took a star LRT to puduraya..but then we had a stop at Time Square to watch the Transformer (the revenge of the fallen) then we both took a bus from Pudu raya to Kuala Perlis...on the way back..we took a bus from Kuala Perlis to Hentian Kajang...actually the journey was too electrifying and enormous to be intricated in this short writing…so I try my best to let those pictures to do their jobs…I done my part there…(hehehe). Due to my hectic , so I was belatedly to post those pictures in my blog and blog about them. Ok, enough said…now I wont talk much..that I will let those pictures to speak for themselves.





...me with a simple snap after riding a cable car to the top of the mountain (i forget the name of the mountain but those who have a ride of the cable car will know which mountain i refer too)


......these pictures are too enormous and fine-looking panorama which are should not be wasted for no reasons by all people especially malaysians....we have lot of "a 1st world class" of tourism destinations in our own places...it is such a place like no others....

































so i guess, i stop here for now and will get back later on with some others story to be shared with...

Convo time...

It’s the time…

It is my convo time…feel a bit forlorn due to the fact that I had booked my family flight last minute on 16th August wrongly! I was accidentally brought their flight on 18th August and it was the same day I was having my convo! so unacceptable tho! I cant fix the mistake and what makes me feel so despondent is that, my family was here for 3days only and I don’t have any chances to have a studio picture with them coz we were to busy to be here and there and those days (19th and 20th ) were too pack for shopping and visiting places in KL. The bizarre feeling of not celebrating my convo with my family is so deplorable to me and as the matter of fact they were in Bangi and we were totally forgot to have any snaps after the convo yet still have time to be in some places to hunt for goods. My parents, my sis in law and my brother had only less then 5 days leave! It is not fair to me tho. Ok, here are the pics during my convo with myself and few friends of mine.




me with the messy hairdo because of wearing the mortal board....so i kept it away while taking pictures...buat menyemak je

a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_YB7HvEQOTnw/SpDjiB2rAyI/AAAAAAAAA5o/fmqG9oZ_rak/s1600-h/New.jpg">

Iz and i...



hud and i...he was my best buddy from 1st year until our third year while in postgrad classes...i realized that when you are in postgrad your number of close friends in classes keen to be undersized...





4 years ago i got this..


and now.....


Finally, i have my Master after 3years of surreal life!I did coursework and research mode and yet the brain is still not damage as for now...So how about the PhD?Sure it is not that really hard i guess...just that need to give lot of "damages" on the brain..hahhahahah.. so here it is...

















pembuat kek gave this lovely watch for me during the convo..so sweet tho!



and also with these lovely teddies....love u bebe....


My mum said, no worry, no heart feeling on this matter coz she says that for a reason i guess, or she means that there will be another chance for them to attend the convo....i guess she means the PhD thingy..hehehehe..thanks mum. What;s more..this end of year my family will be in KL agian..well, that time all gov servants will have their bonus...what a big bang for them to hunt those shopping lots!




(My sis in law, my mum and my dad)


(my youngest brother, my self and my brother who is after me)

Ok, so i treat myself with something which is healthy to me i brought a healthy drink-




I brought EZout (rm200+) for colon managment and good for those who have constipation cases and also E-Nutera (rm372) which is good for those who want to spruce up the immune system as it has 25% IGG (which is one of immunology elements as we have 5 elements of immunology...and in normal diet or supplement foods, some of those supplements has only 1 or 2% of IGG (contain Colostrum with lactoferin).. In some dairy products, can hardly to fine their IGG is above 5%..it is because IGG is to expensive... what is IGG, go to Google then...am to particular to my health tho.. Having EzOut means no more Detox Tea i guess...as now we are dealing and facing the unremitting disease like H1N1 so E-Nutra is good for us coz it has the strength to prevent any type of Influenza ( H1N1 is one of Influenza types), and it has some testimonials on preventing cancers. What's more it has antibacterial prevention which is needed in our body. I read an article (scientific article) which says that IGG is needed the most in order to boost up the immune system..in fact, those who are living with chronic viral problems may get some benefits of having lost of IGG coz it can reduce the development of the problems. Well, your health is your choice... The paradigm of this world has be changed swiftly nowadays. For examples (am taking some examples by using technology archetypes in general ), in the 70s we were in the era of producing Microwave thingy, in the 80s, DVD player took the place after the microwave. Then, on 90s, people were to busy to be in the line of being in the 1st line with the nation mission (one pc for one family, at least). At that time, Internet was (and now it is still) the most important thing to be acquired and to have as we are in the epoch of modern development and internet is a MUST! But then today era, 2000s, people are talking about slimming, anti-aging, diet and so forth…HEALTH is taking the place after the internet thingy…do u ever notice that people never give up to get the best health for them self event it may lead you to have a big hole in your pocket? Well, people, what a life tho! Well, what I can say, all these changes is beyond our limits and what we can do is to follow or to be left behind the others…..everything is up to our choices…. well, most of the choices that we have to make need cash...everything is so pricey ....wah..meaning to have a great health and needs we have to need more and more cash??i guess yes we are...



dreaming of having such cash..i guess need to work super duper hard...hehehe...





talking about health, i consume this kind of drink as it has lot and lot of Vit C..compared to marigold or any types of drink in the markets....so try this people...nowadays we need organic drink which can produce lot of vit C and i never depend on medication for vit C or other pills.



ok people, i guess i will be back to you later with another post ya..will post some pics tho...


take care and selamat berpuasa to all Malaysian Muslims...
