butts that taste like hamburgers...

when it came to kissing butts. politicians are good at it. take for example the current events of Mahathir slamming PakLah.
with unreasonable doubt we'd all support the current prime minister. afterall, he's the man thats ultimately in power. not to say that i disapproved of PakLah's dictatorship, in fact i think he's doing a pretty okay job.
on the contrary, i am quite disappointed with Mahathir's childish behaviour in dissing the current PM. he's obviously showing the nation that he's more concern about his own personal interests rather than the nations. The johor bridge for one is a good example. he's obviously trying to stir up some old tension with the singapore government with the curvy bridge. i agree that the form of the bridge is an obvious provocative symbol of how mahathir wants to potray malaysia's relationship with singapore- complicated. it is not an easy road for singaporeans who are interested in venturing into the Malaysian market. okay, maybe its better that way. if not we'd probably have to establish a new "kampung lagi baru". not being racists here. purely referencing it through precedent events.
thank goodness the cabinet is on PakLah's side... vocally.

one of my tutor once adviced me to always have a sceptical mind when reading texts. it made sense, to establish a non-gullible mindset. not believing everything you read or heard. somehow or rather, i find it hard to establish a sceptical approach especially when reading most architectural texts. in particular things regarding Lecorbusier. despite the fact that he's a fetish hornbag, arrogant, and total weirdo; he is still an absolute genius. the greatest architect ever, IMHO. i feel that i know so little of architecture and everything i read made sense. every manifesto and theoretical stand to me made logical sense. everything is possible and sensible. heck im a sponge.

oohh... there's House today.
