3 years ago, I celebrated mysweet sixteenth birthday at my place. That was by far the best birthday celebration. For me, at least. My wish then? To become a professional football player.
That wish came true made everybody laugh at me.
2007.
The following year, 17th birthday. Sherwin bought me the perfect birthday present. GROW baby milk powder for age 1-3. FML.
Thanks MILF.
My wish then? To become a well known novel writer. This time, nobody laughed at me. Ha ha!
2008.
Last year, 18th birthday. My first ever surprise party! I was finally legal for an orgy many things. I was happy. I was gay. I was infatuated. I loved the juices of life. My wish then? To grow up to be a better everything; from being a better son, a better brother, a better footballer, a better writer, and a better friend. I think I accomplished half of some and none of the rest. But I was never fully satisfied.
This year, my 19th birthday. I inaugurated it by talking a long walk around my condominium blocks, shrieking aloud to random songs and taking everything in easy. Ok, If you thought this was weird, I don't know what else to say.
My wish now? To have a daughter/younger sister to spoil. W-whaat? If you think this is weird again- okay nevermind.
Admit it. You love fried chicken. Your daddy loves fried chicken. Even your ah ma loves fried chicken.
Why is that? Is has been a compelling question that even scientists and philosophers of the 21st century cannot answer. This is because EVERYONE surrender themselves to the awesomeness that is fried chicken.
Fried chicken in popular culture:
"Harland, that's not chicken you're holding..."
I think Colonel Sanders proved that..
Fried chicken is universal. Embrace it and shut up.
Wait, there's no chicken ass?
Warning: the following pictures of fried chicken might stimulate your saliva glands. Either that or induce vomitting.
I remember blogging about fried chicken last time. That was the first time I ever tried and fell in love with the fried chicken there. That was before I became officially fat. It is appropriate to phrase that the discovery of fried chicken changed my life. Physically.
Chicken backside on a stick.
I am not a teacher. I am not here to teach you how to eat healthy. There are plenty of slimming centres around for that purpose. I come here to enlighten and remind you of your first love. Your childhood is filled with Pokemon cards Transformers, not eating veggies, playing yo-yo, and annoying the hell out of your parents. But there is but one memory that every one of us have obvious overlooked, and that is eating fried chicken. If you come up to me and say that you have NEVER eaten fried chicken in your life before, I can also say that Megan Fox is a woman or Malaysia is a first-world country.
The average amount of fried chicken eaten on every visit.
I would be a hypocrite if I said that I fell out of love for fried greasy chicken when I discovered French fries. Sure, french fries are crunchy and long and oily and delicious and unhealthy, but how can a small, young, fat, ugly, greedy boy like me live in denial? This boy stopped eating fried chicken for a long time simply because there was no other fried chicken that could beat KFC. And then, a friend of mine introduced me to a quaint, old, dark, filthy fried chicken place in humble Klang Jaya. I have grown fonder of that fried chicken place ever since then. Even my parents were worried about me going out almost every night, because they suspected me doing naughty things.
They were right.
Klang Jaya is the Mecca for all fried chicken lovers. That includes EVERYONE. (And you thought there was nothing in this world that everybody loves) If you have been to the place I mentioned before, you might wonder why the chicken size is smaller than KFC’s. Well folks, KFC chickens are not natural. In layman terms, ALL KFC chickens have undergone surgery, just like us. The only difference is that the chickens did not ask for any plastic surgery, but we did. Now you know why the breasts in KFC are huge? (No, I am not talking about the customers, thank you)
Coke - your best friend when eating smokin' fried chicken.
Fried chicken pimp.
The price for KFC chicken is around RM3. Whereas the price in Klang Jaya is RM2.40. That’s right. You pay extra 60 cents for hormone-injected chicken. In KFC outlets, they give you popcorn chicken. In Klang Jaya, they give you chicken ass. In KFC, they give you Coke/Pepsi only. In Klang Jaya, they give you 100 Plus (in case you get tired eating). Hell, I’m purposely inadvertently advertising the fried chicken place.
Fried chicken skin.
You watch all those KFC advertisements where the working woman uses a carrot as a substitute for a dildo phone when her boss caught her red-handed trying to buy groceries to cook for a family. What message are they giving out? YES! Convenience. Fried chicken cooks 10 times faster than ‘double/triple boiled soup with chicken’ as well as killing you providing growth hormones 10 times faster. With that said, I think my ‘not-so-subtle’ statement is clear. I love fried chicken. You love fried chicken. Your friends love fried chicken. Your dogs love fried chicken. Eat fried chicken and die early everyday.
This is obscene.
Simply put, fried chicken is an orgasmic food that promotes growth (proteins!!) What better way to eat and grow sideways taller! I am living proof.
Parody: " Sweetie, there are people looking at us... "
This year's Easter, I had the chance to act in a play called "Shattered: The Musical". It was written by Iri, one of the leaders in church. Now, I'm not trying to boast around. This is something I should be proud of ever since I escaped death twice when I was a kid. This whole act revolves around me trying to harvest Energons to destroy the world a female orphan who fell in love with a dude from another village, and their love quickly turned to lust trouble when the girl's father, who is a pimp the chief of the village found out about the scandal relationship and captured the boy before he was brutally raped killed. Naturally, the girl then becomes emo sad, but then finds the heart to forgive her own father. Anything after that is history. Personally, I don't really get the plot, but as they say, this kind of tragic love story always gets good ratings and applauses from the audiences especially with me inside. Ok, enough of the gist. On with the trivia!
Practice session. Yes, I am the one one with the huge ass, Sam.
PLUS POINT: Having a killer stare like us helps your acting career. Immensely.
It's not talent. It's the sense of humour.
Girls with swords. I dig!
With one whole month of practices (and also the fact that I acted in another play during Form 5 for Nature Week) under my belt, I share with you my infinite wisdom. If you see all actors and actresses, what do they have? That’s right. They have the confidence. The difference of having confidence and not having confidence is how fake you look on screen. Being fake is to TRY to fit into your character, yet not doing it full-heartedly. That means, you are still self-conscious about yourself. In short, you fail. So, if you have self-esteem issues, try practicing alone in front of the mirror. Or go for plastic surgery.
A smile is always essential. Always.
Wow you’re still reading! The second thing a good actor/actress has is undoubtedly his/her attractive body. Come, you may deny this fact and say that there are lots of people out there who are not physically attractive yet they are famous onscreen, but I can tell you that there are also porn stars who fail to make it big in the adult film industry because they did not go. It is only in rare cases that actresses get famous solely for their talent. Other young girls become famous although they cannot sing. That’s tragic. What you can do to your body is to eat healthy food like Twisties & Cheezels for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and supper. Listen to your mother! If not you will go to hell. They are forever right.
Cheryl giving the "more drama for your mama?" pose.
Acting FAIL: digging nose during the play.
If you are a potato couch who is crazy about dramas like 90210, One Tree Hill, Desperate Housewives, Malaysian politics, you are in luck. You should have noticed then that these stars of these dramas start young. No, I am not referring to Disney Channel’s pedophilia policy. There are people who start showing up in movies as cameos before they ripen and star in blockbuster movies. Of course, a scandal or two is a plus if you want to be famous. Yes, go have sex. The next day, your pictures will be in the internet, and before you know it, you become as famous as Vanessa Hudgens or Zac Efron. At least, that is what Hollywood encourages.
You might ask: " Seriously, what is with the pink bandana? " I have no answer to that.
Gay sarong man & co. VS Freddy Krueger. We're in deep shit.
The last criteria that is required of anyone who has impossible dreams is: a poor background. Aha! Why, you ask? From my fabulous observation thus far, I would say that those who come from a deprived family naturally have the balls to do things that the “so-so” or “well-to-do” people dare not. Of course it is so! What do these poor people have to lose? They already have nothing. So, they dedicate their time to acting and going for auditions after auditions and BAM! You have people like John Travolta, Julia Roberts, or even Akon. Well, he’s not technically an actor, but I swore I saw him acting in The Gods Must Be Crazy before. So, if your parents can afford you high school, college, and university, you might as well forget about fame. There is a reason why this world has equality.
Cupid existed a long time ago. There's proof.
( speaking of Akon, well, guess who The Gods Must Be Crazy star is? Lo and behold, N!xau. Russell Peters was right! )
Goodness me. No wonder people like me never make it far in life. Thank you for reading!
Remember this face. It will be in the silver screens. Or your nightmares.
Like any other typical birthday celebrations, it involved eating lunch, watching a movie, bowling, expensive dinner, and lots of close friends. And Juvee is one of those people who can create fun out of nothing. There's proof.
Birthday girl giving her trademark cold stare.
She is mostly shy and obedient, but when it is her birthday, she roars. As of course, I, again, failed to pay attention to the road en route to 1 Utama, like any other bloke busy listening to seductive music on his phone would.
mushroom soup
And on the way, there were lots of unusual things on that Friday: a flightless bird with only one proper leg, pink sports cars, and toilet bowls filled with shit.
cheese-baked spaghetti with meatballs
But it was Juvee's birthday, so all of those weird happenings cannot stop us from being depressed about Malaysia being so dirty and gay. Burger King decided to give us a deal. One BK Single burger with fries and soft drinks, PLUS a crown for the birthday girl. What are the prospects? Lucky girl.
"..."
only for pedophiles. like MJ.
And then there were children games. You know, those small cars or motorbikes that we always wanted to sit on when we were young. We would cry, throw a tantrum fit and make a scene until our mothers give up and insert two 50 cents coins inside?
Well, we did not insert two 50 cents coins inside the machine..
We inserted two oversized babies instead. And what do you get?
A full house. And there were no doors. Goodness!
There are reasons why nobody sits on this taxi:
It lies. It says Taxi Free, but you pay money.
The driver is not human.
They were scared off by two oversized babies occupying it.
"hello? yah um.. i inserted the coins but the taxi isn't moving at all."
all the gay people in the house, smile!
The party ended a long time ago, but it is still worth remembering. Why? Because it was fun! And as mentioned earlier, here's proof of how the birthday girl can create fun out of nothing.
(these videos are taken in another friend's house. sorta like the after party.)
Attempt to get a reaction from Juvee while reading the birthday card. FAIL.
