Bear with me
Aug 2nd
#Fact.
It's been years since I last tried updating my blog template.
Seriously. The last time I did this, I was just about to walk down the aisle.
And then, life happened. Actual sex on an almost-daily basis. Met up with new people in life. Explored another area of building my career which I never thought of. Beyond education, beyond publishing, beyond public relations and the topic-of-the-moments that flew into my life, the world of organizational development. And then, I got swept back into the corporate world again, back into the building blocks of society, literally, doing corporate communications for the most traditional of traditional Chinese companies trying to make it into the global property playing field.
Of course, there was Paul's arrival in my once-flat belly, breathing through the liquid space that was to be his home for 37 weeks. The kicks and flutterings that filled up my life, the constant craving for fruit jellies and spinach soup.
Then when he was finally born throughout a most hilarious experience through laughing gas. The entire 40 days of terribly old fashioned confinement that I actually survived.
The sleepless nights, the trying times I worked at establishing breastfeeding, going back to work again, forming a rhythm of my own again.
…
Oh wow. It has been such a journey.
…
I figured that I owed myself a little me-time and I thought, hmmm, let me try changing this template on my own.
So there will be glitches, guaranteed. Bear with me please, while I work on this.
If my words mattered

Dear Barisan Alternatif,
I really love the tropical country that is Malaysia. I superbly sayang Sabah, especially the Danum Valley area, in my few trips over to the Taman Negaras there, I've learnt to appreciate the fragility that is nature and also the amazing gifts God has given to us. So I understand the people's desire to stop the coal plant from being built. Any development, for sure, will have an impact on our precious environment.
Alas the very same people who don't want any power plant also complain when there is no electricity. So far as I can understand, the technology available to us doesn't allow electricity to be generated from nothing. So we're left with… errr… coal, nuclear or hydro. All have environmental impacts. Wind, solar and so called renewables also have environmental impact one you know – wind turbines cost a LOT a LOT of land area and a lot a lot of trees will have to go also.
So you see, if you want to oppose something, can there be an offer for an alternative? Because otherwise, this is quite annoying – like the opposition is forever jumping on the angry rakyat's reactions and using it to bulldoze their way into BN territory.
And if you don't come up with an alternative, then how can I trust that you will be a good government?
Aku sangat takut nak mengundi di Malaysia. Cos almost all politicians I know are merely championing their personal causes. I doubt they actually give a fuck about the rest of us minions here.
Just saying.
