That Little Injustice called Asian Idol

---- *don't read if you refuse to be offended by someone who is simply practicing his critical mind by taking the devil advocate role, against anyone who thinks that hady doesn't deserve his title. i am supporting Mike, that's for sure. I am supporting Mike's big heart in congratulating hady. I am proud of that ^^ -----

"To see beyond the glory is the hardest thing.. for a hero's strength is measured by his heart"- Hercules OST

Sometimes I wonder whether it's better to be...

A winner who is condemned unworthy by all spectators..

or a loser who is deemed worthy of winning by all spectators.

Hady, though returning to Singapore in glory, is under strong criticism by spectators from other countries. Presumably we Indonesians are among his strongest critics as everyone thought Mike clearly deserved the title.

But we have learned from that food critic guy in Ratatouille, it's always easy and costless to be critic.

But no matter how good your arguments n critics are, you are never better than the worst performer up there who has put his best effort to fight.

And then.. this little thing called 'injustice'.
I have never known that voting system is just or fair.
If you know that the competition is 100% voting-based, why bother when the best doesn't win?

If you have been voting for Hady as the 2nd option because you think he won't win, not because you think he's second best, then..

Don't you think God only shows you that He is more than able to use the weak to put shame to the strong?

And.. don't you think that.. your subjectiveness in voting deserves a subjective result which is far from fair.

Now.. look at it this way.

Everyone who watches the show tell me it was crystal clear that Mike deserved the title. Isn't that better than to have Mike who is mediocre and yet, ended up winning?

At the end of the day, anyway,
I thought this 'injustice' is way too trivial compares to many injustices that take place everyday.

It's like football. We, the TV fans, are fighting over 'injustice' that take place in a match. We hurt each other and even kill.

You know what your beloved footballers do after the match? They shower, go home, and enjoy their luxurious life.

Football is the most overrated stuff on the planet, some would say.

But the thing is.. we need to be passionate about something in life, and we choose different things. Some make better choice while other don't.

journal: a little update

wow I am actually back to this blog. between Apr 27 2018 and now.. what has happened? I officially proposed to my girlfriend (wah.. trust me you gonna miss that word), got married, and.. became a dad. yeah.. all in a matter of less than 2 years. now when you consider the fact that in 2015 I would not have the slightest idea how things would turn out, it just goes to show how life changes in a blink. How is married life? Well.. I am one of those who has pretty pragmatic view when it comes to marriage. I have seen enough to know that relationship is messy. So.. I must say marriage has been way way better than my expectation hah.. For example.. I knew that my wife is a smart woman. I knew some of her shortcoming too.. (and there are some I didn't know till we got married, of course) BUT... here's the big bonus. I didn't know she can be that adorably funny in her own way. Not funny like a standup comedian funny but.. you know.. she makes me laugh. Trust me.

Hmm..

si mahasiswa NTU yg bunuh diri itu denger2 namanya david. sigh.. mgkn final year presssure was too much to him. jadi inget masa2 kerjain final year project, tinggal 3 bulan dan gua maseh blank. untung ngga masuk berita ky dia. life is a funny thing. well since there is a chance that this may not be a simple suicide, lets not assume so. maybe there's a truth behind this. duh.. jd inget kalo di conan trus dia bilank, "ini bukan bunuh diri.. ini adalah kasus pembunuhan!" jadi serasa mao jadi detektip -_-
