"Now, now.. Watch ur mouth!"

"Puk*mak miak tok, canne kau boleh hilang!" This is one of the few sentences I remember as a child walking at Pasar Minggu, a mother scolding her own child in front of a group of ppl.

WORD CHOICE: puk*mak, why would u swear on your own pussy or how do u name it?

But to think on this issue again, why is such word a bad word? Word like S.H.I.T, F.U.C.K, cibai, lanchau, puki, etc... I mean, they don't mean bad things, or do they?

So what qualifies as a swear word? S.H.I.T means "ship high in transit" (but refers to of course shit/dung), F.U.C.K stands for "for unlawful carnal knowledge", cibai, lanchau, puki is a reference towards human's private parts. What's so bad with these words? Why are these words "blocked out" on Malaysian tv for example? Why?? Maybe because they were taboo "back then"?

Well, I don't use swear words on a freuqent basis, so that's a good start right.

My opinion on this? I don't think it's bad, maybe just inappropriate. You wouldn't want your kids to say all those things now do u?

So as I use to say to friends who do swear "now, now.. Watch ur mouth!"

Confessions of a Facebook Addict!

What do I do the first thing I get to the office?

I switch on the computer and get on facebook! Like OMG, am I that pathetic?

What is the first site I go to once I open up Mozilla? Facebook of course..

What do I do on Facebook? What does one do on Facebook for hours a day?

LOL... It's sad isn't it, when the high points of my day would be having notifications on Facebook!

So, quick note to self for 2009: Don't Facebook!!

Luckily I'm not one of those person who actually take pictures of themselves and post them (if this is somewhat offending, I'm sorry--siapa yg mkn cili dia yg trasa pedas!).

More new yera resolutions... Do I have any? Oh yeah, I want to be those super skinny Kate Moss model type, but I love food too much to actually get there! Oh well, and I'm too cheap to go spend money on a new wardrobe! 2009, here I come!
