A week in review.....

So its been about 1 week since my debut. Many things have happened in the world, and well for those of you who just crawled out of some random cave, let me give you the highlights.

Domestic Affairs:
Teoh Beng Hock, 30, an aide of Selangor state executive councillor Ean Yong Hian Wah, has plunged to his death at the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) Selangor headquarters in Shah Alam.

Here are some unanswered questions:
  • Why did he not choose to leave the building as soon as his questioning was finished? Who in the right mind will choose to sleep over in the MACC building?
  • Why didn't he phone or SMS to inform anyone after questioning that he was going to sleep over at MACC? Was his mobile phone taken away or returned to him at 3.45am after questioning?
  • How can MACC allow an outsider, after having been questioned, to presumably roam around in the heart of their offices from morning until 1.30pm, without any monitoring?
  • Who were last with Teoh, what were the last statements taken? How many were with him? Why did he have to be questioned overnight?
MACC claim that they do not use CCTVs.

My thoughts: Even my office uses CCTVs and as if we're an important organisation that interrogates people, e.g: "I'm gonna ask you one last time! Where are you hiding the toiletry expenses??!!" Meh....

Foreign Affairs:
The United Nations Security Council barred five North Korean officials from leaving their country and ordered their foreign assets frozen as punishment for working on nuclear weapons and missiles. (I actually bookmark that page now)

My thoughts: When pushed into a corner, desperate people turn to desperate measures. Hope for the best, but expect the worst! Time to build our own underground bunker. Lets just hope I'm not the only guy who survives this nuclear war, as all the other girls in the world would rather die than help me repopulate the earth.

Sports:
Manchester United vs Malaysia: When MU came in 2001, they trashed us 6-0, this time it was 3-2. MU led 2-0, and somehow let Malaysia equalise. Michael Owen scored the late winner.

My thoughts: ......No comment.

This week David Beckham declared that he would consider a return to the EPL. Beckham left MU in the summer of 2003 to sign for Spanish giants Real Madrid. Beckham had previously stated there was no chance of him playing for any other Premier League side than MU. Now he says, "I would definitely consider it. Never say never. When I left United, I said I would never want to play for another English club. My heart was in Manchester - and I couldn't see myself wearing another shirt in the Premiership and playing against United. Now I wouldn't rule it out."

My thoughts: So it has taken Beckham roughly 6 years to get over his first love......hmm....that's about 140 weeks more to go.....Yong where you get that countdown thingy on ur blog?

Anyway, say what you like about Becks, he is the best crosser of the ball in the history of the game, and his free-kicks weren't horrible either.

Next up, in the latest episode of Knowing About Yeah 101, we shall be discussing about the 5 Love Languages by Dr Gary Chapman. Just in case your lazy to click that link, the 5 languages are basically: quality of time, receiving gifts, words of affirmation, acts of service and physical touch. While everyone expresses and responds to all 5 of these love languages, everybody has a main language, which they will express and respond to significantly more. This is why you sometimes hear people saying that they don't really feel loved by their partner/family members. Its often because their partner/family member is using the wrong love language to express it.

For example: My sister and I surmise that our father's main love language is acts of service. He doesn't really appreciate gifts and quality of time is not the most important to him either. The only time he hugs us is when we are leaving home for a long time. He also thinks that words without actions are useless. But he does appreciate it alot when my sister and I (ok fine its mostly my sis) who helps my father to do things for him. Whenever there's something important that my father is too busy to do, or can't handle himself, he'll turn to us and say, "Just do it!". Then after we're done, he'll be very pleased.

My sister's main love language is words of affirmation. Now if you love her.....now thats a big IF (OUCH!), and you send her this really expensive present but don't bother to write her a card, she won't really appreciate it that much. But if you write her a really long card, telling her how awesome she is (which is true....awww...) and how much she means to you, (You're My Everything....awwww...) she will appreciate the card more than the gift itself. This applies to Mariel as well. So all you fans of The Sister and the Best Fren...you know what to do now! (Yo yo yo assist!) However if you're some pretentious sweet talker then BACK OFF! I WILL HUNT CHU DOWN! Anyway so Yong, go and find out what *ahem*'s love language is. Then strike at the heart! (Yo assist again!)

So what's my main love language? Its physical touch. (The excuse of the perverts) So ladies.......


*Dead silence........Grasshopper noises*

Haiz no response as usual. So I'm gonna go and flush myself down the toilet now but in the meantime you can check out that website I linked way up there for more info and there's also a very simple quiz you can take inside there as well.
