The Final Battle

Warriors have gone to the war in the month of may. Three world wars with two going from day till dawn. Many warriors was reported died in the war though not less who survived and even won the wars. Those who think they have survived the three world wars on three different days will now be even more anxious than before because this Final Battle is the toughest of all wars. The war with those who control and owned the earth.

The final battle will began in six days, the exact day is 20th May 2008. Warriors are now preparing themselves because if they failed, it will more likely be Doomsday or Armageddon though if they succeed, they will gain utopia.

Although utopia is nowhere to be found. But i believe utopia is not the physical state but the mind state.


Hope we can win the war! Long Live UOL - Exams Warrior! Let's tackle Sociology!

"If you believe it's easy, it will be easy! but remembered not to underestimate it!"

Want To Study But End Up on Facebook

SIM-UOL Main Exam is coming soon but i haven't start studying seriously. Economics and Principles of Sociology is the subject that i feared the most.

Nine months ago when i started my Diploma in Economics course at SIM UOL, I heard that Sociology is the most dreadful subject but later i found out that i end up struggling for Introduction to Economics too. Preliminary exam result for economics has just out today. Although my score was 52, which is considered good enough for preliminary result, i found out later that my script was actually not marked by Amoz Wilztum which is UOL Main Exam Examiner. He got mentioned earlier that he actually give some of the prelim exam paper to his friend for marking. and he also stated that the marks for those marked by his friends if marked by him, shall be divided by 8. die...

Sociology result has yet to come. I have been so anxiously waiting for it. waiting so see how bad i scored at the prelim...

because of this two subject, i have planned to study hard for this one month so that i can do well in the main exam. But days after days i have end up playing facebook application, heroes, poker, black jack, and battle station. I have becomed addicted to facebook.

I know it is not a right thing to do. I need to control my self, clear my mind, and stay focussed on my aim.

I realized that i should stay focussed from all the temptation from all around me due to some incident that happened on my way back from dinner. I was standing looking blank musing of what my life has gone through in the past, and what will it become in the future. I was thinking whether my past has some sweet memories left or whether i will ever taste sweet moments in the future. Then, a flash of light let me see the name of the condo that i lived in. Suddenly i realized and quickly push the bell so that the bus driver know that he need to stop. From this incident, i know that if i do not stay focussed i might not only be left uneasy in the bus, but i won't have reached my destination. Of course, in the bus story i can easily abroad at next stop and take another bus or walk back to my destination. But in life is different things, time will never tick backwards, life will go on no matter what happened.

Cause of problems

In the past few months, quite a number of my friends relationship broke up. If i count there are at least 3 pairs who are in danger in this past 3 months. I do not know what happened to them but i hope all the best for them.

Inspired by those events, i started to think what are the causes of problems in the world. Here i just want to share my view although i know i am not a great thinker or philosopher or theorist.

These past two days i keep thinking what is the real causes of problems and from my basic reading at Sociology text book, i concluded that almost 80% of the problems is this world arises due to misinterpretation or misunderstanding or (a more sociological terms) mis-verstehen while the rest was caused by the struggle for hegemony or predomination.

Tiring to chat???

Today, i chat in msn messenger with two girls. Really tiring.... hahaha... one asked me to join Christianity and explain the same thing which i have heard lots of time. She keep asking me some "trap" questions such as, "why you avoiding Jesus?" or "are you scared" or " i feel so joyful since i now jesus. Repent now...". if you answer such question, you will end up getting trapped. so i choose not to answer.

I have tried to explain to her, "not that i do not believe in Jesus" but this world is not a two dimension, this is the world of 3 dimension or even 4 dimension world, you can not say that you have the absolute true. Everything depends on your point of view. God might be an absolute truth, but your conception of God surely are man made. Your concept of God are made through the process of interpreting bible and Christianity rises at that time to attacked catholicism and their ritual. It is not handed down by God to you, but it was created by a charismatic leader who can make you belief of what he belief.

I also admit one human nature, people select what they belief, no matter what i said she will not digest it, she is just waiting till i said something wrong and took that point to attacked back. Though i feel a bit disappointed cause she is not answering my question but stating that "Jesus love you" for every question. This is an act of brainwashing indirectly. And Christianity often used this kind of act.

I know what i said will have little or even zero effect on her stance. I do not wish her to convert as she had got the feeling of happiness in her religion. I just do not want her to end up being an extremist or fundamentalist. If you want to spread your religion, teach only your God's teachings and do not spread religion by attacking, mocking, ridicule or even make fun of other religion. It is not the way... People who changed heart because of your ridicules or mocks was the people who has no strong stance while the people who have moderate mentality will remain unmoved.

i have met many of people like this trying to convert people by making fun of others religion. Although i have rebuffed their statement they still stay unmoved, this means they have already been brain washed. one example, another guy told me a story that being told at his church. The priest said that he read a book written by a former buddhist monk who convert to Christian. The monks claim that during his deep meditation, he visited hell and saw there a guy being punished severely. Then the monks asked the hell officer who the guy is. the officer said that he is the well known Siddartha Gautama, he was punished here because he do not follow Jesus's teachings. Then after the monk returned from hell, he immediately convert to Christianity.

Then I replied, why don't you asked your priest, "How can siddartha follow Jesus teachings for he was born before Jesus even come to the world?" This one simple statement clearly show that he priest right now is going "wild". I am not saying all priest but at least some of my friend's priest definitely gone "wild" by creating "blind consciousness" to devotee. Even though my friend admit that his priest definitely got it wrong, but he still believe in the priest.

I have tried to ask them to just step out of the box and see the world, also see your religion from many point of view. then you decide if you feel good about it, you are free to step into the box again. but nevertheless, my words are like winds and nobody would like to listen to me because i nobody to them. Imagine if i was standing in the podium as their priest. They will definitely listen.

Tired2... World is changing too fast that makes us hard to get a good grip of it. "blind consciousness" is everywhere. But please remember that i am not anti Christian but some priest (not the religion but priest), use a faulty act, use some unlogic example like the one above, and create a "blind consciousness."


Then the second girl asked me to explain Sociology. then i just playing with her by saying that to learn sociology you must first fall in love with Karl Marx. After a while you realized that he is not the right man for you because he is too materialistic and has a unrealizedable dream to reach communism utopia. You dumped him. Soon you also get know with somebody called Max Weber. but in the opposite direction, you find Weber too pesimistic and talk only no action(idealist). You also dumped him. Then you started to stop searching for boyfriend and begin to think for your own future. You want to be success, means you need to work or set up a company. To work in a company or set up a company, you need to know how things work. then you started to study Organization theory, scientific management, human relations, your ex-weber's concept of bureaucracy, fayol theory and many more. Then you set up a company, your company become a huge success and you start to think big and even bigger. You want your company to conquer the world. So you start to globalized your company and hence, came the theory of globalization. At that time, there are 3 types of person, first, those who said you can not achieve "Globalization"(sceptics), second, the person who said you have already achieve it (Hyperglobalist), and the third, people who come in the middle who said that you are "globalizing".(transformationalist).

This is a short story of Sociology that i told her. haha... whether what i said is valid or not i do not know cause i also not really good at Sociology. Hopefully, it is valid.

Realizing i am no more kids

Used to playing with everything. Speaking bombastically every time without even thinking about what i am saying. History had written down how many people that was averse me because of what i am saying. Actually i never meant to hurt anybody, maybe because people misinterpret my meanings. Sometimes people says that my jokes has crossed over the line. I usually do not care about what people think about me. But these past few months as i would said as my "hermitage" months has give me an initiative. I need to change. I know somebody is anti to the word change due to their conservative nature but to me, changing is one of the key features that makes humanity evolves mentally and physically.

Life is not going forever, at least until know still no concrete proof of eternal life, that's why we need to behave. One mistakes could ruin our all life. One wrong steps we might even fall into deep dark valley and could never come back to surface.

Love

What is exactly the meaning of love?

Love is a simple word consists of four letters. Dictionary dot com defined love as a profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person. If i were to answer what is love, i honestly said "i do not know."

Love is a word that can turned people upside down, turned human into beast, beast into human, turn good into bad, bad into good, life into death and death into life.

Love changed life of many people, no matter they believed it or not.

But now, i am getting paranoid everytime i heard the word love. Why? i also donot know...
maybe because love has turned me down, turned me into beast, turned me into bad, turned me into death... as now i couldnot feel anything anymore... Heartless...

Equality is The Summation or, in other words, Generalization of Inequality

While studying Sociology, some annoying though came up to my mind;
"Equality is the generalization form of Inequality".

Sociology, for me, is one of the most difficult and boring subject. This word "Sociology" was founded by Auguste Comte but the first person who established Sociology as one of the recognized subject was Emile Durkheim through his study of Suicide.

Every Sociologist did not bother on how to reach an ideal society but to understand the society and how it works to produce stability. Emile Durkheim theory suggested that Society is evoluting by itself, differentiate each of their function to counteract any defying roles of parts of society.

One of the best known figure in Sociology ,nowadays, is Karl Marx. The basic of Marx theory is that society is divided into two different classes, The dominant class and the Subordinate class. The dominant class control the wealth and power while subordinate class work for the dominant class. The subordinate class, such as industrial workers, thus have to work for the Dominant class.

Marx think that the dominant class (feudal and capitalist) exploit the worker by underpaying them. Because in Marx opinion, The dominant class want to maximize their profit and to obtain the higher profit is to lower the cost which is wages of labors. Hence, Marx predicted than this subordinate class will revolt against the dominant class and in the end, they formed a communal society.

These two Sociologist above, in my opinion, is the extremist because not all societies evolutes and not all societies revolts. The common social issues is usually located somewhere between these two guys theory.


As we have seen in our own society, there are many inequalities on how we treat others even our own families or relatives. But if we took a broader view of this society we could see a harmonious, equal society; for example: a maid who is working for a noble man in England, if we see it from micro point of view, this maid is not treated equally, as she did not have all the amenities there. She only working there to clean and maintain their house features. Although the maid received salary for what she has done, it is still not equal because, if for the same amount of money the maid paid the noble man to clean her house, will he willing to? The maid was forced to do it to survive. In the opposite, macro point of view-outside the society context-, we can see that these nobleman and maid society is harmonious as they treated each other equally; for the maid is willing to do the work for the payment and the nobleman is willing to give the payment for the job the maid has done.


Hence, i conclude that Equality is a generalization of inequality.
This can also be proved mathematically.
1+1 = 2
but in closer view from reality we know that :
one bunch of vegetables + one bunch of vegetables = one big bunch of vegetable (inequality)
one male dog + one female dog = a family of 5 dogs (possibly-showing inequality)
from all this example if we see it not as a same, combinable things (out of the context), we can conclude that 1 +1 = 2
one bunch of vegetables + one male dog = 2 things consists of one dog and one bunch of vegetables.
