I can't take it anymore, the more I read stories about this, the more I keep it to myself, the more I feel disgusted. I just want to let out some steam and clear some things out for all the "hoohaa" happening here.

Today marks somewhat a dark day for Malaysia, specifically in the peninsular. At this time, 4 churches were attacked due to a word. 2 arson and 2 failed attempts to do so. Those who live in Malaysia sure know about this story. For those who don't know, read this.

What do you gain from burning the churches? What good can you bring doing that? NOTHING! But I guess people like these enjoy doing it, for they have no shame lighting up fires here and there, promoting hatred. Spreading propaganda for their own enjoyment. Just because of these fanatical people opposing the word used even though the decision was made by the court.

I don't have grudge against my Muslim friends and their beliefs. They're smarter than these people who loves chaos rather than peace among us. Each religion are beautiful, none of them teaches tear each others limbs off but instead to live in peace with one another. But do these kind of people listen? Do these kind of people have no shame? I guess they don't. *sigh*

The more I look to it, the more I realized that these people are lost, which lead them being who they are, fanatics, extremist. Blinded and lost by their own faiths.

I confess, being a Catholic, I'm not the most religious person there is out there. At least I don't go around and yell which religion is better, which religion wrong or this religion kicks that religions arse, which religion should do this or do that. I am better than that, my Muslim brethren as well are better than that.

As not the most religious person out there, here is a prayer for you.



"Kepada yang telah membakar rumah Allah, secara tidak langsung menghina nama Allah, anaknya Yesus dan Roh Kudus, aku mengampunimu kerana kamu telah sesat. Kita semua adalah saudara di bawah nama Allah biarpun cara kita berbeza, pemahaman kita berbeza. Aku doakan agar kamu balik ke pangkal jalanmu dan bertaubat atas perbuatanmu. Amen."



I hope everyone of you read this and accept the prayer with an open mind. The last thing I want are religion bashing comments in my comment box.

I know it's a bit late for this but what the heck. Happy New Year to all of you. 2009 was not a bad year for me, not a good one either. What I've hoped for did not happen, even though I tried. I tried. I did not fail, I did not succeed either. At least I've tried. 2010 marks a new chapter for me, a brand new journey. I expect a bumpy ride but good one in the end.

Talking about bumpy rides, I think it just started. Serious post coming up next. Not talking more about this because I'm going to focus more on the next post.

So to all of you. I hope 2010 brings a good change on your lives, time to live for the best. Forgive and live truthful, nothing good will come being hostile to others.

Yeap. I haven't been blogging much lately but who cares? You can always catch what I'm doing in my plurk. If you're lucky, chat with me as well and a find few rants.

Last week was the third installment of HobbyCon and it was great fun. Made new friends and met some old ones, not to mention a friend I haven't met in years. I got his name wrong yet I got our history right. HEEEY! NAME STILL START WITH THE SAME FIRST LETTER!! Not that uber PHAIL!


me: errr.. desmond.. darren..?
Airin: Darwinson!
me: YEAH! DARWINSON *last name*! see... I did not forget the last name!

Like the first two, I took pictures of the event. This time, I'm being a bit smart by just taking what I wanted to take so I don't waste frames and time just to edit them.


BEHOLD! CHUCKY-CAM!

Pictures like..


these..


and these.. oooooo hai, airin!

But what I most proud of was the team that made the Sister of Battle costume, Nex, Dan and Joanna. I just help some parts, not that significant.


Joanna in the costume.
Joanna: DON'T YOU DARE GRAB THEM HARD *****!!
me: -_-U


mmmm.. SEXY!
OH SHI-! *runs away from Joanna*

Everything was approved by Acing himself, look at him receiving a Bolter as a thank you gift.


acing: ya, aku terima la ni bolter ni...

Throughout the first day, we were dined with some shows and contest. Solo cosplay contest, beatbox by Abu and few others. The only complaint I have was the sound. What ever checked the night before was totally gone wrong.

Vids taken by..


Hi, my name is Airin. I'm the Video Maid for HobbyCon.

In the end of the day, the solo cosplay competition winner is none other than Joanna with her Sister of Battle costume. I can see manly tears running down Dan's cheek.


FOR THE EMPEROR~~!!

Some of us were just blurted "FOR THE EMPEROR!!" automatically as it were a battle cry! Congrats, Joanna! Hard work paid off!


--END OF DAY 1--




Day 2 starts with me and few others who tagged along being early in Citymall. Doing last sound check so that no more mistakes on few parts. We were served by a band from SIA giving us some songs from animes. Thanks so much guys!


OH IBUUUUUU~~~~

That day, we were served with group cosplay competition, Gothic Lolita Punk competition and some shows. I don't bother those as much, picture-wise. I'll just let the others take pictures while I take other pics.

Like Cloud the Emo King here..


Kelvin: WHO YOU CALLING EMO KING?!

Instead, I take pics of the others like Acing posing with both Athena and Billy Kane. Airin and Nichocotop respectively.



Joanna, Ceres, Yus and Sarip doing their cross-overs.


Sarip: IT WON'T CUT!! IT WON'T CUT!!

and some random cosplayer.



I did not get anything from the GLP competition but I'm sure there's few in FB, just not from me. Same goes to the group cosplay competition. I'll rather be watching than taking pictures. SINCE EVERYONE WAS TAKING!

The rest of the pics you can find in my FB gallery here, Day 1 and Day 2. KKGroove.com also asked for my pictures, you can check them out here.

SEE YOU IN HOBBYCON 2010!!

Watch the vid HERE.

Video kind of old, it still gives us views of some people around Malaysia. This has to stop. If this keeps up, I have no hope for leaders of tomorrow.

Climate change. What goes through your mind when people say "climate change"? As we generally know, it has to do with "global warming". Well, that's somewhat part of it. It's bigger than that. It's not only a higher reading off the thermometer. It has more to do on what's going on around us.

Climate change effects Sabah.
Ever wondered (to those in Sabah, Malaysia. Where I live.) there's so much wind all of the sudden? Well, one of them is due to that and that brings more storms as well. It also plays a role on the intensity of the monsoon season. The climate change has altered alot from short and intense monsoon period and rising sea level.

Due to this, some people having problems making a living, especially those who depends on treasures from the sea. Chris Kong, a businessman who depended on the sea tells his story.

Besides the rain, when it comes to the dry season. We're experiencing drought with scorching heat thus contributing to water shortages.

The current see-saw weather we're experiencing was also due to climate change, the massive rain few weeks back was not a coincidence, even if it was because of the hurricane build-up in the Philippines, it was also due to the climate we're currently experiencing.

It's time to change and take action
We need to do something, we need to act proactively. We need to change, we need to monitor everything. We as humans are the only people who can change this before the the clock strikes 12.

I'm now currently planning on to spread awareness on climate change. I hope everyone does.

My contribution to Blog Action Day.

Flanegan pointed me the way for a great 1Malaysia TV commercial by Proton. Kinda sad though, he's currently in Melbourne and knows the site while I'm here in Malaysia don't even know about the site. Can't blame me, I don't watch TV nowadays besides the series I want to watch. Anyways, I love the series and it's a must watch!

Starring Afdlin Shauki, Ho Yuhang and Dato David Aramugam - 1Malaysia-Proton.
