i can still vividly remember the times when we were in secondary school, entering the compulsory choir competition conducted by the ever beloved school... for the sake of showing us students' patriotism towards the place in earth called MALAYSIA!
As already we are tired of singing songs since the ages of 7... till the final days of glory (for some of us that's not gonna wear school uniform till the next life).. from Negaraku, to Negeri Selangor... and not forgetting Jalur Gemilang and also the greatest Keranamu Malaysia... which the 2 latter songs, till now.. i have not able to memorize them. (blame it on my part too for not receiving the lyrics in the first place.. so whose fault is it actually?? eyes roll back to one place where there's no other places u would point at when all things go wrong: The Teachers!)
xian zai de wo men, mei nian ba yue san shi hao, wo jiu hui he yi ban peng you dao "Xing Xing Dao" qu qing zhu guo qing ri. qi shi wo men bu zhi shi yao kan yan hua, er qie yao kan de shi "zhen hua". er jin nian ne, Fang Jun, Ah Mao, Qing Qing he Wo, gei yi da ban peng you fang fei ji zhi hou, wo men si ren dao "Xing Xing Dao" qu kan re nao. Dang shi jian xian shi 12 o'clock midnight, dang chang de ren dou yi qi han "MERDEKA! MERDEKA!" tong shi, yan hua zai hen an zhong chu xian le...dou hen piao liang, "zhen hua" yiu duo yiu piao liang! zhen shi Ah Mao shuo wei de 'yi ju liang de'
*ok enough mandarin.. i'm having headache now.. but if u guys can't understand... my apologies... go get someone who understands! :p*
If patriotism is a real deal issue, we shouldn't have the need to go all the way to Bintang Walk, be with a big crowd of people just to celebrate this grand day. Yelling "Merdeka" without knowing the actual meaning is lame... and energy-sapping. To really understand how we obtained independence.. we should look carefully and closely to the book called "Sejarah". Sounds familiar? yes u moron.. it's the stuff we learnt since FORM 1. Or u can totally ignore those facts and be a true Malaysian. (sikap tak kisah masih rules~).
To really care that u love your country, then do the things that for heaven's sakes... NOT on the BAD SIDE OF MALAYSIANS... u can think of the good things that a malaysian can do... but when mentioned bout the bad culture malaysians have... i might need to re'blog all my entries and tell everyone bout the bad side of Malaysians. Now if we get rid of those bad ones... (or at least minimize the amount) everyone will worship us~ ain't that good? :p
Be a citizen of a country ruled by democracy... the government must be reminded by various mottos... such as "By the fans, for the fans" <--- easy to understand right? go figure. or taken from the lyrics "Take no prisoners" by Megadeth... one of the lines goes like this
'Don't ask what you can do for your country, but ask what your country can do for you'
meanwhile, have a pleasant 48th anniversary independence day~ Malaysian wise.. *heh*
~don't cry for me Malaysia~
