The Most Embarrassing Moment Of My Life

So I'd like to share this funny tale that i just can't forget for the rest of my life. I never told anyone about it except my wife. It was a typical tiring night. I'd just got off from work during afternoon shift and it was about 11.30pm. So i was feeling hungry, stopped by at the row of restaurants near my house to order my favorite set of menu which was white rice, oxtail soup and fried squid, with my occasional iced tea. It was a typical malay roadside restaurant, one of my favorites. They serve good malay and thai food there. So i had my taste-buds indulged, my tummy filled and smoked a marlboro to wrap it up.

After paying the bill, i stood up and walked towards my car. I reached for the keys in my left pocket and pressed the button on the key to unlock the car. It went "beep-beep!". So i opened the door, sat inside and shut the door tight. As i was trying to insert the key into the ignition, that's when it hit me. There was a thin red light around the key socket which wasn't supposed to be there. The dashboard meter behind the steering wheel was totally different and modified, hell even the steering wheel itself was smaller than usual. The racing type. I was officially in someone else's car! And the owner of the car was staring at me from outside the window, in awe! Like a reflex, i immediately exited the vehicle and rushed towards mine which was about 10 feet away. I drove away as if nothing ever happened.

What really happened was this; as i pressed the remote button to unlock my car, so did the other guy, who was also having dinner there and was about to leave. So he and his friend were walking towards their car, coincidently pressed the remote button on his key the same time that i did. Me, with whatever nonsense that i had my mind occupied with, reached his car first before him and confidently entered the car and shut the door. They were like too shocked to say anything, let alone to even react. They just stood there outside the car watching, probably for a second they thought i was either a senseless thief or just a crazy gangster who doesn't give a damn. The thing is, i was driving a grey Proton Persona SE (and still am) and that dude's car was exactly the same model, same color. After realizing i had made a dumb mistake which probably only Homer Simpson would do, i got out of the car, did not say a word and just left. Even worse, the parking lot is situated directly along the row of restaurants, so almost everyone eating there saw the whole thing. Which is why i classify this as THE MOST EMBARRASSING MOMENT IN MY LIFE...so far. My god, i really hope nothing like this would happen again. Or anything worse for that matter.















My Proton Persona. Isn't it the best looking car ever? :p

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...
