The Wave by Fahim Rahim

2.00pm 17 September 2012

I remember the first time we met,

It was raining like in Hindi Film,

in the car we kissed,

and show the love we never had.

I remember when I woke up,

seeing that beautiful eyes,

that pure smile that I always adore,

bringing me to heaven,

telling me Ill love you till ever.

In the morning I make meals for you,

taking care of you,

This feet works like a horse,

But I never mind,

as long as you are happy,

Because I dearly love you.

Remember how I hold that small hands,

in the car while driving,

Its the greatest feeling,

The joy that we had,

The nights we spent,

a blink of an eye,

a shot of a gun,

a strike of a thunder,

It happens so fast,

You everything I thought you never were,

You are the rain beneath the rainbow.

Living here alone is a deep torture,

burning my heart,

tearing it apart.

Love, come back. I need you `,`

I never leave you

But if the lock is on your door,

Ill understand

"How Do I Start Writing my Story?" 

By Fahim Rahim

1.15am, 16 September 2012

How do I start writing my story?

When my eyes are here,

My brain is there,

And my heart is everywhere.

How do I start writing my story?

Blue ocean, thunders, clouds,

And rain….

They are all seem perfectly together.

Shall I count the rain,

Shall I touch the sky,

Or shall I jump from the high everest,

To prove how much you worth.

Sorry is just another word,

For you,well at least

The stones are listening,

The cats are speaking, but

Yes, not you never you.

Love, what is that all about?

For my mom loves me but never once had she made me sorrow,

My friends love me but never did they bring me low.

Do you love me? I never know.

Please answer,

Do you really love me? I do not know!

To you,

If I can ever turn the time back,

It will be as status quo,

Because breathing here,

knowing that you are leaving,

Is not something I adore.

And it really makes me wonder,

How do I ever start writing my own story?

MALAY vs. CHINESE

Malay versus chinese. Three words that may encapsulate different views from different people. The Malays, as again and again, shall I say 'born in the silver spoon' in Malaysia with Ketuanan Melayu, Hak orang-orang Melayu and so on. And here it is still, Chinese, born in a rotten spoon, conquering the biggest industries in Malaysia - Farming, business, tourism and etcetra.

Why is this happening??

Some people say the word 'Melayu' itself brings a bad connotation... Me-LAYU..(I doubt this)
Some people say Chinese are born with good genetics that makes them hardworking and good in business...( I also doubt this)
Some people say bla......bla......bla........

Well, Dr. M said "Org Melayu, buanglah tongkat sendiri dan belajarlah berjalan dengan kaki sendiri"

WoW! Now, I know why Dr. Salina in my 'Current issues in Education' class adores Dr. M so much. He is a man with a mind of an alien. I mean, he does not think like us. I do agree with him in this sense. THE MALAYS have to be slapped on their face and wake up!!!

It is not that Chinese have good genes and Malays are not. We are all born with the same capacity of the brain in our cranium (except the brainless mat rempit i guess). But the thing is, its about the extent that we use our brain to build up the life that we want. The Chinese, if we think again, why do they succeed in Malaysia...a land of the MALAYS?

The answer is simple, because they are minority and they do not have the government to pamper them so much with this and that and this and that. For instance, Ive read a newspaper clip long time ago when this Chinese kid said that her mother always pushes her to study hard because 'we are always the minority no matter what'. If two Malays with 10As can go to university only one Chinese is offered to do that. That is merely a fact!

It is normal for human to feel insecure if they are a bunch of minorities. Look at the Malays in U.K for example, how do they survive there? I heard most of them opened businesses to support their life. So, why cant we in Malaysia become the Malays in the UK? Because, we are just too pampered by our own government. I'm sick of telling this because deep in my heart (although I'm chinese+malay) I know that Malays are also capable to succeed. Yes, some Malays have proven that....Look at Al-bukhari....Sosilawati even....They are a bunch of successful Malays. But its only them....what about the other 99% of the malays??????

Anyway, to Chinese....you've done hell of a good job surviving in this land. Good! But, Malays....its time to wake up! No more hot coffee at the warung gossipping about janda berhias anymore....NO MORE.....we have to prove to them that we can also succeed....

"The greatest gift from god"

Title: The Greatest Gift from God
Lyricist: Noor Ainulfahim Abd Rahim
Date written: 5th January 2011

Remember when we first met,
The sea turns red,
The clouds were scared,
The stars gazing, shining the world it led..

How did we come this far,
How did we go through a thousand billion scars?
When the rainbow shines,
My heart is opened,
And with you I shall survive….

(Chorus)
Do you really believe in love?
Do you really think that mountains can be torned and burnt to dust?
With you, I shall be,
The one I wanted to subsist,
Because my love you are,
The greatest gift from god..

(bridge)
Oh lord,
I pray to you that this love shall never apart,
Because without you my love,
And Without your love,
My heart shall never be defined…

The Wawasan Tower Malaysia... a meal for the political party?

Honestly saying, I hate politics so much with such lies from both the government and opposition parties. I rarely talk or start any conversation that has even a tiny bit of politics for some personal reasons. However, I do have to say this, I strongly believe that the government's proposal on doing such a mega project in a this 5% economical growth country is a absolutely a meal for the political party particularly the government. Bare in mind that I do not hate the government nor the opposition but this has to end.
Firstly, I feel that 'someone' is so scared right now that his political party might collapse in the coming general election. That is the reason why this tower is proposed, because its about making names just like Tun Mahathir made name with his gigantic KLCC and KL Tower. Just when Malaysia is only surviving on income-taxes, this is when this clever person want to say "Why don't we build another tower that costs billions! I know our people would like it!" How pathetic! We may not be good in economy but we are good in common sense. Better than yours at least?
Yet, they say it is to promote tourism in this country. Ask yourself how long has KLCC lasts as the tallest building standing on earth before Taiwan 101 took over? 1 year? 3 years? 6 years? The point here is that our government has to be slapped on their faces that the tower itself is a huge waste than gain!!! Does the people in China would wanna come to Malaysia just because we have this one tall tower which is almost the same as their DOZENS of towers back in Beijing? Yes, most of our tourists are middle-easterns, yet ask again, do they care to come to Malaysia because of that single tower and saying bye-bye to their buildings in DUBAI? NO! They come to Malaysia mostly to shop! Because the prices here are cheaper than theirs, plus the government's abolishment of the taxes! (have to credit the gov for this!)
My idea would be, instead of focusing on building another tower in Malaysia, everyone would be happy if:
1) The taxes for PTPTN abolished
2) More improvements on school's facilities ESPECIALLY in rural areas. The teachers would be in seventh heaven if they have internet coverage in their schools.

But I do agree IF the tower is built for the homeless, old folks, orphans and so on. I think everyone would love the government for this (It's good for the election too!) STOP GIVING NONSENSE TO PEOPLE PLEASE, WE'RE NOT A BUNCH OF STUPIDS! Still, again and again I wanna give credit for Najib because of the tax abolishments. :) smile...peace~
