In 2008 Barack Obama said, "Government whistleblowers are part of a healthy democracy and must be protected from reprisal." Obama has since prosecuted twice as many whistleblowers as all previous US presidents.

I honestly feel as the technology age is booming, freedom of information is more accessible now as to what it was 20 years ago. It's becoming a threat to governments around the world, including some Western governments, who have preach so much about 'democracy' is slowly becoming a militarist state. This is more than just whining about small minority of corporate greedy people, this is bigger than that.

As you know, my mobile phone's power on button is broken - due to the effects of being in an Odd Future mosh pit. Anyway, to get it repaired is such a pain in the ass, that's the taboo of buying shit from the internet, especially when the product company refuse to repair my phone even though it's under warrantly, but the fact the phone was not purchased here and the serial has confirmed it's from Thailand, I have to go all the way to Thailand to get it fixed (yeah that what HTC told me), well I can go to Thailand if I want to, but the fact it will cost me a plane ticket I rather buy a new phone instead. I mean, Blackberry and Apple have great support when it comes to hardware/software faults, you can buy their product from a third world country and if you're still under warranty, they'll fix it for you. At the moment, I am currently in contact with the phone seller, hopefully they can ship me the spare part so I can get it fixed.
In the meantime, I'm stuck with the use of a no power on button, it's pain in the ass, why? Because whenever my phone sleeps, you would need to power on button to switch it to be awake, instead you would need to take the battery up thus having to do a reboot of the phone every time, or alternatively, plug in and plug out it's USB connector that's attached to your PC if you're near one.
So I went to look around in the Android Market if there's an App for something like my situation, and to my surprise there is! It's not the best, but it's what I could use for the time being. So, thank goodness for Android, because if some shit happens, there's always an App for it.

We need a new generation of politicians and leaders to lead us, not as a country but in the community and for everyone else as well. Nowadays, we have old fart politicians who aren't socially connected with the people and is delusional enough to try to introduce new laws and legislation to the public that is deemed an enemy to free speech. The government should be afraid of the people, not the other way around yet we're slowly letting them take control of things that shouldn't be in their control in the first place. You look at world news, like in the Middle East, dictators trying to hold onto power and using violence against people if the people are against the government, yet when they get rid of the dictatorship, a new wave of dictatorship has a grip on power and that's another hurdle to combat.
In the U.S, the government wants to introduce SOPA (and all that shit with it) because Hollywood is afraid of the Technology world. They want to slow down the progress of it by introducing stupid laws. Yeah, SOPA got killed, but what makes you think that's the end of it? They'll push more and more, these past generation politicians who are currently still in power won't give up easily. It's also a bonus if money is thrown left and right to get ahead, it works, because money is power, but if no money you don't have the power which you can hold the opposition by the throat. Also, look at Occupy Movement, it first started off as something with a cause, then a bunch of idiots joined and the message got clouded and lost. Protesting and online petitions ain't going to do shit, that's slacktivism. You take action, which is much more than that - do something, go out there and take action what you believe can make a difference.We can laugh now at countries who are now under dictatorship, communism, restricted free speech however one day, just one day our own country could become just like that as well. - Jan 28, 12
It took me all day whether or not to get a digital camera, maybe even years. I always wanted one but from people's experience and how it can break easily from time to time plus most use AA batteries, which I don't like I prefer rechargable ones from the camera, I usually would stay away from compact digital camera and prefer SLR camera. Anyway, I was going through reviews and had to pick between the two, which was Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX9V and Nikon Coolpix AW100 (This is my preference, although the Sony one was more popular one through review) in the end I picked the Nikon one, why?
- Waterproof
- Shock Proof 1.5 Metres drop
- Inbuilt GPS - no fucking way, I said two years ago I wanted this and I wish camera companies would do this non-existant feature, and guess what they did. This is great for travelling as well.
Three points that won my heart. It's going to arrive home next week. I'm happy.

Get your shit together with this SOPA madness. We don't want to deal with your mess again as we have already dealt with your other shit in the past.
Yours sincerely, the International community.

If you were to travel alone, you're going to unfamilar territory. The reason why I believe travelling alone is fun, also a bonus if you're single as well (You don't want to be in a relationship and your spouse nags you in the middle of the night due to time zone differences, lol) - it pushes yourself. It challenges how you see yourself, as you're surrounded by people who don't know - hence, you're free to be the introvert or extrovert you're not at home.
I have travelled alone in the past, I felt comfort when I do it because I'm used to it and always up for any new challenges in life. Plus, I don't need to pay for 2 people during lunch, so that's a good thing and I can also have a 5 star hotel all to myself. Downside, you need someone to take photos of you or you're alone with your camera's timer and that shit is hard to get a perfect shot.

That I know is working during the public holiday period for December. Yes, that includes Boxing day, National wide public holiday after that, New Years Eve and New Years day. So I guess you could say I have killed off my own 2011? Well, in my opinion hell no. Most countries don't have penalty rates, which is for those who work get 3x the hourly pay or in my case 1 day public holiday work = 3 days added to my annual leave. So in total, I would get 12 days annual leave for 4 days of work, that's simple awesome and what I intended. To hell getting drunk and wasted on New Year Eve where I've done that already in the past. I'm saving and gaining my annual leave for 2012, so in total, including 4 weeks leave, plus 12 days and if I plan to work in other upcoming public holidays, I'm heading to 6 weeks leave. You know me, I like to use it all at once, so yes for 2012, is going to be a big year for me as I have planned for, and hopefully it all goes well as planned.
Happy New Year to you motherfuckers, from bitchville who's going to be working from home.

These motherfuckers, they're called: Australian White Ibis.
1. They smell like shit, take a sniff and you want to vomit. I have to hold my breath each time I go to their spot, which is where I pass everyday to work.
2. They're ugly and shit everywhere, they're all around the city near garbage bins.
3. They smell like shit. Even seagulls don't smell like shit.
4. They smell like shit
5. All of the above.

Piracy. A word that's an enemy against big companies, entertainment industry and all alike.
To me, it's something I have to choose and prefer, because the option of doing it legally costs twice more than the origin of the product (for example, television, movies, music) or is restricted for people like me legally (see: Hulu, Netflix and etc).
People who are against piracy and believe ISP should be hold accountable for it, it's basically like saying a phone company should be at fault if two criminals who planned to rob a bank used mobile phones to communicate eachother. It's a dumb statement to begin with.
If getting access to all these movies, television and games the same prices and release date as the US at least we didn't have to pirate these things. Pay TV and free to air TV here is poor and outdated. Anything brand new is unavailable due to copyright restrictions that these big companies hold against non US citizens. PC games companies have learnt this and taking the best approach, having all games available for everyone around the world at the same or at least identical price! This is what other forms of entertainment should do, instead of suing customers or ordinary people just because they download a couple of copies of movies that's not available for release in their side of town.
So two big fingers at corporate companies who are small minded about the technology age.

I'm quite critical at the whole Sea Shepherd vs. Japanese whaling, I think their motives are racist towards Japan and nothing to do with trying to prevent whale hunting. The ironic thing is, the same thing is happening in Europe, and guess what? You're hearing nothing from these redneck bastards, nothing at all, zero. You don't see them heading up there and asking people to join their outcry against whale hunting.
Here's a recent article about whale hunting season going on at the moment in Northern Europe. Stupid cunts too afraid to go after other countries. At least Japan doesn't give a shit about these Sea Shepherd cunts of a crew.

INTERNATIONAL air passengers will soon no longer be banned from carrying liquids in their carry-on luggage.
The federal government has announced that new advanced explosive detection equipment will be installed at Australia's international airports by 2013.

About time they did this, you don't know how many times they have taken my drinks away from me or that I'm forced to throw it in the bin. Forever happy.

I recently thought of myself if I live a life without "work" as in, not just a job I am currently working in, but work with life in general. I can't picture anything special going on. I think I'd be a hippy or something. Experiment with weird shit that most general public wouldn't do. Don't have what I want and not move anywhere in life except my age. Sometimes, I thank myself for working hard in life, working with getting good grades back in college until the point where I graduated successfully and celebrating it by smoking weed and taking a long needed nap that I usually don't get. Matter of fact, I don't think my grades matter when I enter into the career field I'm in. It's all about knowledge and experience and the willingness to learn and grow with the new experience that is going to be handed to you. Working hard to get a job right after finishing with my studies and working with big IT companies, moving left and right in the industry with contracts and settling for a permanent job that I wouldn't trade for the world because it's just a relaxed social environment except when it gets busy at work. I can discuss all type of shit without being restricted or banned from discussing. I guess working hard can pay off, sometimes I can be lazy, but that's our human nature. What I dream to do, like travelling to places I've never been to without needing to worry about accommodation or money, trying out new hobbies, buying things that I couldn't before, now it's all a thing of the past for me as I have achieved these things by hard work. I also feel that I'm not challenged enough at times, I want to try new things, be afraid at first and settling down as I complete the little steps of the things I want to achieve at the new things I want to go up against.
Don't you? - Nov 12, 11
Recently, I bought 4 piece sets of vintage tin posters, so I could hang it up on my wall behind my computer monitors, it took about 2 weeks for it to arrive (Amazon, thank you!) and when I looked at the package, there was a cut on one of the metal posters, as if someone took a peek at my package. I was the first to get it on hands, but the fact that someone took a peek at it and left a mark annoys me, which led to me believing Australian Customs opened it when it arrived in Australia, because the Post Office don't do that shit, they deliver mail without needing to 'peek' at it. So, for dedication, I say a big FUCK YOU stupid customs that go through our package when we buy shit from overseas.

When I was around 2 years old, my parents parked their car in the local shopping centre to go for some shopping, when we were finished, my dad forgot something and went to go in to buy what he forgot, my mum was deciding whether I should be left in the car or go together as a family, instead she took me out of the car and walked back into the shops, within minutes someone broke in and stolen my dad's car in daylight! as he came out he saw his car (which he bought brand few and was only few weeks old at the time) driven off by some crackhead junkie. Few days later police reported the car was dumped in the river and burnt....
Sometimes I wonder what would happen had I been in the car *plays mysterious type music* but it was never on my mind until I wrote this, and to sum up what had happened when I was a baby? Fuck, I was one lucky bitch...

2011 in review - Singapore and Thailand
Which reminds me, for 2012 and beyond I need to visit more countries in the years ahead. Saving up is not a hassle for me, it’s the limited of getting days off that’s a problem to me.
It took me weeks, hell even months to consider whether I should buy myself an iPhone or an Android based phone. It was between Galaxy S2 and iPhone, but they’re both overrated and Galaxy S2 is too big for my hands. Well this week I made up my mind and chose this phone, say hello to my HTC Sensation™ XE with Beats Audio.
This phone isn’t available on contract at my local carriers, so instead I imported one (unlocked) from Singapore and delivery was 2 days express, couldn’t be any more happier. Bare in mind the last phone I purchased was nearly 3 years ago and it was so outdated, everyone was saying I was carrying a brick.
I’m quoting James Bond because my sister named her pug James Bond and he’s sitting at the CEO’s chair, he took over my position for a shoot for his new puppy business card.
Took a photo when my computer parts arrived, it feels like Christmas has come very early for me.
Miss it dearly. My piss looks like this after drinking it. I made an attempt to make it back home, success!
That’s right next to the beach
I love how the houses and bars are right next to the beach, no restrictions, although I would be weary about mother nature, I couldn’t help but want to live like a place here.
Definition for best friend: (n) best friend (the one friend who is closest to you). Australia’s definition for best friend: A bloody mate.
Happy Birthday to my great friend.
Say hello to my brand new camera, my Nikon D7000 (with 70-300mm lens and planning to buy some more new lens soon) it replaces my Nikon D60 who has been with me for nearly 3 years when I take it with me while travelling overseas.
I chose this camera for a number of reasons, I have others in mind but I was recommended this one, since it’s not been out for that long and when I was looking at the specs I was like, damn it looks good. I can say it’s bigger, heavier and I have a lot to learn with the functions since it’s a major step from a D60 to a D7000. I’m just happy that this camera would be travelling with me, to where? We will would need to wait till 2012 :)
I can never swim early in the morning but kudos to this woman for swimming in the morning.

A RECORD number of Australians are expected to travel to the US this year as airlines slash their fares to around $1000.
Visit USA estimates more than one million Australians will travel to America in 2012. “It’s a remarkable number considering the population is 22 million,” Visit USA spokesman Mark Sheehan said.
“The population of the US is 322 million people and even with Oprah it only manages to send 500,000 Americans to Australia each year.”———————
Any fellow Aussies going this year? I know I am :-)
Shetland Islanders celebrate Viking legacy
Participants dressed in armour and holding Viking war-axes and shields take part in a procession during the annual Up Helly Aa festival in Lerwick, Shetland Islands on Jan. 31, 2012.
Up Helly Aa celebrates the influence of the Scandinavian Vikings in the Shetland Islands and culminates with up to 1,000 ‘guizers’ (men in costume) throwing flaming torches into their Viking longboat and setting it alight later in the evening. Up Helly Aa has been going since 1881.
The Man Who Lived On His Bike
Amazing project by Guillaume Blanchet, who has gone 382 days with his bicycle from Montreal! He dedicated his project to his his father Yves Blanchet who has competed in his life and still goes on 120.000km.
“I love being on a bike. It helps me feel free. I get it from my dad. After 382 days spent riding through the streets of Montreal, being sometimes quite cold, sometimes quite hot – and sometimes quite scared, I dedicate this movie to you, Yves Blanchet”. - Guillaume Blanchet
Green Stairway to the Sky
Scheduled to be up and running this summer, the Mercedes House by Ten Arquitectos will provide a fresh new look to the bustling streets of Midtown Manhattan. With spectacular views of De Witt Clinton Park and the Hudson River, the building zig zags vertically and diagonally to preserve city side streets.
The massive 1.3 million sq ft structure features 865 residential units, commercial and storage spaces, a neighborhood market, health club, horse stables for the NYPD, and of course, a state-of-the-art Mercedes-Benz dealership.
New Stamps Celebrate Roald Dahl
Roald Dahl’s work is being celebrated in a set of special stamps.
The set of six Royal Mail stamps, which also depict the work of illustrator Quentin Blake whose drawings are synonymous with Dahl’s stories, feature six of the author’s best-loved novels.
One of Dahl’s most famous tales, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, appears with a beaming Charlie Bucket on the 46p first-class stamp.
