Mother of all rants (well, almost)

Writing is good...writing is the chicken soup for my soul.
Writing is good when other people's kebongekan are doing my head in.

Ok, first story. Ada laki orang tu beli handbag mahal2 utk bff dia. Memang betul bff, tiada unsur2 berscandal. Tapi tak tahu la satu masa dulu dia pernah minat kat pompuan tu ke tak. Fine if he has tons of money...fine if he is as generous to his wife and mum as he is to his bff...generous ke? Non hado! Dgn mak berkira..nak campak 50 inggit setiap bulan pun tak...dgn wife? Masa bercintan cintun dulu generouslah..la ni bila dah kawin? Lepas pampers pun anak pun dah cukup bagus agaknya. What is it with men? Their need to impress their girly friends but with their wives, kedekut pait.

Yes, Palestinians in Gaza have won..yes, they won the war (this time round) in spite of the massive destruction that surrounds them. At least bumi Gaza masih milik Palestine, tak kisah la in whatever shape or form. If you were one of them, wouldn't you also be taking to the streets and have a street party (pun intended) and what not? Of course i tak la sokong them totting guns masa bergembira tu...but moral of the story, they were outnumbered, Israel had better weapons  but Gaza still belongs to them. So, janganlah kata apa yg nak syok sangat when Gaza is a pile of rubbles..

There's this lady who did the TokTi...she mentioned that she would not want to die now and leave her kids with a mak tiri...err..terlupakah dia yg sebab dialah jugak yg his kids have a mak tiri..which is her! Is this subconsciously insinuating that bila dia bertugas sebagai mak tiri sebenarnya dia tak ikhlas?? (MG suka berjoke2 nak memaktirikan anak2 weols sementara i masih hidup ni..mungkin satu masa dulu response i dalam hati would be to cekik2 dia..but now i terfikir after ditazkirahkan oleh my colleague yg alim and cakap cinta sejati tu hanya dari Dia semata2....bagus jugak..let me go berbakti elsewhere while my madu looks after my kids. Let me go to Gaza..if my kids' mak tiri si Sopiah tu, she'd want to come with me to Gaza..sayang SoPiah! (err..sapa nak jaga anak2 kita pulak yang??)

Women who complainssss too much of having to work when they'd rather be looking after their kids at home. Well..it's like this...i'm quite judgmental when it comes to this. I love my kids...but i want them to grow up with a mum that also contributes to the society. Camnilah...kita pulun study. Mak bapak kita menaruh harapan utk kita bawak balik ijazah, dapat kerja best2, jadi contoh pada orang kampung, sedara mara...kita pi study overseas menggunakan tax payers' money..we were the creme de la creme..ditatang bagai minyak yg penuh by the pegawai MSD. Nak apa? Belajar main golf, naik kuda? Music? Pi attachment luar negara pengajian, semua gomen support. Then belajar sambung kat uni, buat courses yg critical yg sekarang nak dapat punyalah competitive! Pastu sambung buat professional degree..and then...bila dah kawin dapat anak semua, opted to be a SAHM. Salah ke?? Tak salah if you guna duit FAMA you untuk study...tak salah if you tak deprive another person of the scholarship that could have been hers/his. And i think these people should be a tad embarrassed because you dah pecah amanah! Bukannya sibuk berwhatsapp dgn masalah for e.g. kat mana nak meet up for brunch...cuti sekolah ni nak pi holiday mana...anak hantar sekolah mana...Deyyy! Kalau takat gitu je cabarannya, tak payahla tax payers bayar pengajian awak berjuta RM ye...I was one of those students and now i had the opportunity to be one of the 'penentu' masa depan students..tau tak how competitive it is? 10 people after 1 single place..go figure.

To end my rants of all rants (just for tonight obviously)..
Kalau ada kat luar sana tu...clinical doctorate is not a PhD. Satu klinikal, satu purely by research. If you during your clinical doctorate tu ada buat research (which is the norm), your research tu bukan Phd standard. Jangan samakan and insult people yg ada PhD. And err..mostly PhD 3 tahun, 4 or more...2 tahun?? Tidak ye adik2..kat mesia ni takde ye..Masters yes....Or did you make a mistake thinking PhD ni macam juara masterchef punya ke? Yg takde angin, takde ribut, takde airmata, penat lelah tut tup, eh, dah dapat! Apa komen Puan Dr Lurpak?

Sekian terima kasih.
