Welcoming 2013

Whoa..the last time i wrote on this site was like...January this year. So much for the end of the world, huh. In your face Mayans! In your face Nostradamus! Haha..well still, alhamdulillah nothing extreme happened throughout this year. Just some bad weather and a handful of natural disasters across the globe. Anyway, I'm glad to be alive and glad to welcome the year 2013. My new year's resolution would be to lose weight (same as last year as i recall), to slow down or possibly quit smoking, and to be a more responsible husband & father. Well, that's it for now. Toodles..

My Tik Tok Video Went Viral!

 Three days ago I shot a short video which had been in the planning a couple of days prior. Before that, I stumbled across a Tik Tok video that really caught my attention. I drew inspiration and information from that video and decided to make my own. So the project began. The video is about how the bank system works. I remember how a lot of people (including me) don't fully understand how banks make their money. The topic about banks is full of financial jargons that not only confuses the hell out of the general public, but also financial, economy and math students as well. Having seen a much easier way to understand this, I decided to make a video about it.  The plot is just a simple dialogue between a banker and 2 customers. It was my first time acting and I played all 3 characters. Thank God it turned out okay and not so amateurish. Shooting began at 10am and I finished editing the video at 3pm, all done in my son's room. As soon as I uploaded it to all social platforms, I ...

Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson - A Fight That Never Should Have Happened

Jake Paul is a polarizing figure. Known for his antics as a YouTuber, his time as a Disney star, and his even more controversial career as a boxer, Paul has become a lightning rod for both fans and critics alike. Seven years ago, Joe Weller jumpstarted YouTube boxing—a platform where YouTubers with beef settle things in the ring. Two of the biggest YouTubers in America, Logan Paul and his brother Jake, accepted the challenge of YouTube bigshots from the UK: KSI and his brother, Deji. After winning his fight with Deji, Jake's boxing career took on a life of its own. He elevated the crossover genre, taking on MMA fighters, retired boxers, and even a former NBA player. The thing is, Jake put in the work and won every single fight, with a few knockouts as the cherry on top. You’d think MMA fighters would have the upper hand in a boxing match against an amateur boxer like Jake, but the reality is that boxing is a whole different art. A world champion MMA fighter would excel in an MMA ca...

Credit Cards Are Evil

 All my life I’ve stayed true to the belief that credit cards are evil and debt is the number one enemy of the modern world. My sole principle was to avoid getting into any sort of debt. I grinned every time I see an innocent citizen wallowing in despair as they struggle through the vicious cycle of credit card debt. Never in a million years would I have imagined that I would eventually become that person. It all started when I was at an Aeon mall with my family in 2017. Right after buying some groceries at the supermarket, I went to one of the Aeon booths to apply for a new J-card (a card for collecting points). The employee offered a credit card application, but I declined. I told him I only wanted a new J-card. With my daughter in my arms, the dude helped fill-up the form for me. He started out by asking my name, address and so forth. As soon as these questions got a bit too personal, I started to realize that this is not just a J-card application. He was asking about the amou...
