ABOUT 40 people took part in a ritual in Pulau Jerejak, Penang, so that Apple founder Steve Jobs could be reincarnated.

Sin Chew Daily reported that Sunday's ceremony, which was organised by a medium from Rawang, Selangor, was criticised by the Federation of Taoist Associations Malaysia and several Buddhist associations, calling it “ridiculous and superstitious”.

The daily reported that most of the medium's followers did not know who Jobs was and many took part in the ceremony to enjoy a day trip to Penang and to pray for good fortune.

Followers were asked to take a bite from an apple and observe three minutes of silence before throwing the fruit into the sea but some had finished half of the fruit before doing so as it was very sweet.

According to an earlier report, followers had to pay between RM50 and RM75 to take part in the ceremony.

The Weird World Around Us

Things have been happening lately like one of those phenomena you'd see on science fiction movies. This is rather true at a very strange period where such occurrence tend to make us think if God is messing around with us.

Here's a starter, people actually pack and run for their lives "neatly". Perhaps there was a steward or something that told them to vacate in an orderly manner.

I wouldn't be surprised at the rate it goes, like some mega sale is in town.

This is currently true with the Indonesians rioting in front of the Malaysian Embassy and having floods in Bangkok and other parts of Thailand too.

But here's something even better.

The DADs around the world would be extremely happy to wear this and make sure their daughters are safe from some teenage or college boys.

Happy Hunting, DADs.

I had the liberty of seeing Disney's UP in 3D when it started and I kinda like that cartoon which reminds us of some moral behind the story.

It's actually quite touching to say the least but its definitely a good production.

Any of you remember the kid from the Wilderness Scouting Program? Oh, that boy really does exist...
Check this out:

Cute, huh? Yeah, I thought so too... Sometimes they try to make something out of someone. Or, at least, there's always a little bit of resemblance in everyone. Maybe that's how the pattern of DNA works in our Genes.

Watched any good movies lately? Jackie Chan did his 100th Movie and it was not what I expected thought the History lesson was good. The synopsis for '1911' tells it all. It's something I gotta respect the production was kinda ambitious.

Another good one is Hugh Jackman doing 'Real Steel'. Damn, that was NICE. Oh, wait, it's SUPER NICE. Great graphics and the storyline is pretty exciting to accept.

Our tourist landmark in Malaysia (Kuala Lumpur to be exact) will also be hogging the spotlight soon when the motion picture "Petaling Street Warriors" hit the silver screens. In our Malaysian case, it's Golden Screens as in Golden Screen Cinemas to be precise. GSC will be screening this cool movie that's quite similar to the comedic one from Stephen Chow just like the "Kungfu Hustle".

Desperate Housewives was on TV again and that reminds me... Disney has their own version too. You won't be surprised:

Yup, that's all these WOMEN do... complain, nag & find flaws. Thank our lucky stars that our WOMEN don't do that. Well, not all, at least.

At least they are not as pathetic to the extend that they actually do this on their Facebook page:

Seriously? Really...

Oh yes, remember the beautiful twins I've written about back in 2009? They've gone famous and became a HIT! Janice & Sonia Lee is coming to town... 

Rock Corner has this message for the fans instead: "Dear fans, great news! There will be an autograph session with Jayesslee from 8-9pm on Friday, 21st October at the Rock Corner outlet, The Curve, Mutiara Damansara. The twins will only be signing on their exclusive official t-shirt, so, make sure you grab one! Please note that there will be NO meet and greet or autograph session on the concert day itself. So, make sure you make it to Rock Corner for your chance to meet Janice and Sonia personally!"

Last but not least. Remember earlier in this blog I said we had natural disasters happening every so often? I'm referring to the floods.

Animals can sense them too. And in this darkest hour and time of need, the animals help one another too.

I hope after that, the monkey don't try to do the same to this poor cat below.

Later dayz, ya'all

Being large does not equate to being unattractive!

I saw an article today that really helps to protect those in discrimination and also serves as a reminder to those who fought and achieve to be slim/thin/skinny etc.

Being large does not equate to being unattractive!

A while back, at the entrance of a gym, there was a picture of a very thin and beautiful woman. The caption was "This summer, do you want to be a mermaid or a whale?"

The story goes, a woman (of clothing size unknown) answered the following way:

"Dear people, whales are always surrounded by friends (dolphins, seals, curious humans), they are sexually active and raise their children with great tenderness.
They entertain like crazy with dolphins and eat lots of prawns. They swim all day and travel to fantastic places like Patagonia, the Barents Sea or the coral reefs of Polynesia.
They sing incredibly well and sometimes even are on cds. They are impressive and dearly loved animals, which everyone defend and admires.

Mermaids do not exist.

But if they existed, they would line up to see a psychologist because of a problem of split personality: woman or fish?
They would have no sex life and could not bear children.
Yes, they would be lovely, but lonely and sad.
And, who wants a girl that smells like fish by his side?

Without a doubt, I'd rather be a whale.

At a time when the media tells us that only thin is beautiful, I prefer to eat ice cream with my kids, to have dinner with my husband, to eat and drink and have fun with my friends.

We women, we gain weight because we accumulate so much wisdom and knowledge that there isn't enough space in our heads, and it spreads all over our bodies.
We are not fat, we are greatly cultivated.
Every time I see my curves in the mirror, I tell myself: "How amazing am I ?! "

Last comment: I'm not putting down thin people, being a thin woman myself (BMI of 22 maybe?) just saying that being large doesn't equate to being unattractive.
