Whew. I'm still reeling from the event that inspired Entahlah dude and Entahlah dude strikes back (which by the way, still happening as we speak or in this case; write and read :)). But, whatever it is: when the going gets tough, the tough gets going. Accuse me of being reading too much manga lately, but I'm going to take that all with a smile and stubbornness that knows no borders, like Naruto or Luffy from One Piece :P. I will keep trying :)

Lets leave Loveland for the moment and switch back to Malaysian politics. Today, there will be the vote for Permatang Pauh by election. Anwar vs Arif. And another contender but he's more like a small fish. Can be ignored I suppose? As you read from newspapers, blogs, hearsay and all, this is a clear David versus Goliath fights. Anwar's wife, Azizah won the constituent last election, with a majority of 13,000++ votes against her rival. Naturally, this constituent was Anwar's stronghold when he was in UMNO so it is understandable that his wife can hold on for more than 10 years. So Arif and the BN machineries will have a tough fight ahead of him and I wish him a lot of luck. Make us proud old boy :)

So we got another week to Ramadan; the fasting month. The hunger, the thirst, the traffic jams when all are rushing to go back home early to prepare for open-fast, the congested Pasar Ramadans, the tarawikh prayers nightly with family and the morehs after tarawikh. Yup, I'm starting to enjoy Ramadan more than Eid celebration, especially when the latter involves giving money instead of being at the receiving end. Sigh. This happens when you are in the working world; all grown up. Kids, don't grow up please. Or at least grow up slowly. Life is simpler when you are just a kid...
