(the things people say)


I just finished two essay papers for Pharmacology. The first one was okay, but the second paper was a disaster. Thank God we discussed the 'anti-pseudomonal' drugs just before entering the exams. Many of us exited the hall looking depressed and frustrated. As for me, I exited the hall trying to keep my faith...and wanting a new mug.

Yesterday, the government told us that the prices of oil will stay until March.
Datuk Shahrir Ahmad said, "Our allowances are not much and if the people are suggesting this out of frustration, then it is unfair." Duh~ how can he say this? When the prices go up, he can still ride his Merc and eat in lavish restaurants. While the people have to 'ubah gaya hidup' and take the bus to work and cannot even afford to eat in mamak stalls. Maybe he forgot that those allowances come from the people's pockets. Maybe he forgot that he is a servant of the people, not the opposite. It is too frustrating to think that we have such inconsiderate minister. Hmph~



Today, Pak Lah said that the ministers' allowances will be cut. Ha! "Ketika ini, elaun keraian bulanan bagi Perdana Menteri ialah RM18,865, Timbalan Perdana Menteri (RM15,015), menteri (RM12,320) dan timbalan menteri (RM6,000)." Yes, people! And that is only ONE type of allowance. Amazing enough, these people still claim that they will share the burden with the mass. But, the 'burden' upon them may not even close to the weight of the 'burden' that the people have to carry. All in all, I do not sure what we can actually do. Oh yeah, shockingly, it is not certain yet that the prices will stay until March.

Ryan Adams - Words
(I could not find any links to this song. You guys can try downloading it using Limewire or something. I'll just post the lyrics.)

If everything you want is something you couldn't have
Go outside a while, look up and count the clouds
Can you draw a picture of the backyard of the house
You grew up in, can you remember how it smelled?

Don't worry up your mind
People are sick and mean sometimes
They're only words
They're only words

If everybody is grateful, how come nobody's satisfied
If a tree falls in the woods and there ain't no one around
If you heard it you could go over and whittle out a wishing box
You could write her name on something and put it inside

Don't worry up your mind
People are sick and mean sometimes
Don't worry up your mind
They're only words
It's only words
It's only words
