let Havana Cafe host your Christmas Eve!

We are again, back to the festive season that we all had been waiting for all year long. For the past 300 over days, we all had worked hard. Going through bosses bad moods, clients fussy request, family small issues, friends crazy stress and many more. But we are now at a more happy mood time, yes, there are some companies that this is the time when it gets craziest, but well, yes, do take time to have some rest and think back of what your wish was last year and achievements that you had done for the past 300 over days.

*thinking*

Let that thinking stops there, and come back on it later. Now you think, what to do on Christmas Eve, got a plan? Let me have some says over what you can do. Christmas Eve falls on Tuesday, which is still a working day and our government is already very considerate giving us Public Holiday on Christmas Day itself *hopefully your boss give you boxing day off too*, but Eve is not a day off yet for many. So you come home from work, take a shower, help or do the kitchen for dinner, ask family members to gather and spend time with dinner together maybe...

That would last for an hour or two probably, then all gather in front of the television and have some small chats, that would maybe last for an hour or two as well, and when it's around 9-ish 10. many would have said, "I'm a lil' tired now...I think I'm gonna rest". But you are not tired just yet, energy is still filling up your entire body, what do you do?! Well, this might sounds heroic, but let's put on your mask...

For HAVANA is HOSTING a MASQUERADE PARTY!

She took up music as young as the age of 8 by learning piano and cello, in proceeding, she took lessons in DJ-ing, she loves her own music, she produce her own songs with her peers and she took out at least an hour from her hectic schedule in a day, just for music, now that is COMMITMENT! She might be young, but when she is on her deck, she could be a beast with her music, so why not drop by and have a listen on what she is going to present you!

Selfie, its a legit word

As the title says, selfie, it is a legit word, well it is legit when Oxford approved it right? 

They called it, mirror selfie. Selfie means you take a picture of yourself, and yes, mirror is you take a picture of your reflection of a mirror. Simple as that. Well, according to Oxford, they gave the word "Selfie"s origin is from Australia when they first used it in a forum on 2002.

Well, many teenagers are good with their selfie techniques nowadays, but DO YOU KNOW? actually the first selfie was not recently? Here...

That is Robert Cornelius in the year 1839, now you do the math, how long was that ago? DAYUM long!

But nahh, I know that is no one's interest...here are maybe some of your interest

Owh, yes that is Nicki Minaj's with nip sticker, thank you!

And this, ladies and gentlemen, the most powerful selfie of all time, it was not long ago before this post.

That three people that you are looking at, are United States' President, UK's PM and also Danish's PM. Large countries' leaders. Well, I guess some of us knew this happen during Mandela's funeral. and for those who can't take this, you can sleep in the cave, sitting for nearly four hours of not doing much, leaders can get bored too, and Mandela is such a great person, would he mind over such act? It is just a picture no? I would stop my further comment now.

Have a good day, and here is the holiest selfie! :)

POPE FRANCIS' can do it too! :)

Arguments are like turning table.

Arguments is an action that we, human could not avoid especially when we are bothered by our humane emotion and feelings. Brain and heart are built and engineered that way. Arguments usually started when one started to felt that their authorities being challenge or their opinion or rights being picked and went against.

Things could go really bad when no one from either one side step down to give way to the other to pass, matter could end ugly. Couple's could end up fighting from such argumentation, maybe over a jar of mayonnaise, well, it is true. With all these, it leads to "arguments are like turning tables"

Well, for those of you who does not know what is a turning table, you might be foreigner who obviously does not like Chinese food, for I strongly believe, this simple yet amazing technology is indeed, invented by the small eyes, money motivated brain Chinese (don't get me wrong, I am Chinese myself).

Turning table is that piece of revolving piece in the middle of the table as you can see in the picture. You can turn that thing around so that everybody could get a piece of every single food on the table. Now...do you get it? Why is it similar to arguments?

Let this wonderful lady tell you why...

Too Phat.

When they first came in gloriously in Malaysian's hip hop listeners, Too Phat used to be one of the most respected duo in the Malaysia's music industry. Too Phat consist of two young boys, Joe Flizzow (borned Johan Ishak from Johor Bahru) and Malique Ibrahim (Kuala Lumpur)

Winning many awards such as Best Engineered Album, Best English Song and so on, Too Phat was really flying high at those days.

Those list can go on but it is already in the wikipedia, but the purpose of writing this post was to express how much I miss listening to these two putting rhymes together and rapping it out producing good music.

Literally, deep down, part of me died during 2007 when Too Phat announce their solo pathways, Malique getting married and will have a different life and Joe carries on the legacy with Kartel records. It would be great if I could see these two again, but never will it be, when only YouTube cures me.

Peace!

La Bestia de Genova

He is someone, brutal, cunning and psychologically ill. This is La Bestia de Genova (The Beast of Genova)

Luis Alfredo Garavito Cubillos, is the name. A serial killer which only found guilty after 138 cases of rape and murder over 138 young boys. Freak you out? Read for more.

Are you more than 5 years old?

Key facts

• 6.6 million children under the age of five died in 2012.
• More than half of these early child deaths are due to conditions that could be prevented or treated with access to simple, affordable interventions.
• Leading causes of death in under-five children are pneumonia, preterm birth complications, birth asphyxia, diarrhoea and malaria. About 45% of all child deaths are linked to malnutrition.
• Children in sub-Saharan Africa are about over 16 times more likely to die before the age of five than children in developed regions.

Preterm birth, intrapartum-related complications (birth asphyxia or lack of breathing at birth), and infections cause most neonatal deaths. From the end of the neonatal period and through the first five years of life, the main causes of death are pneumonia, diarrhoea and malaria. Malnutrition is the underlying contributing factor in about 45% of all child deaths, making children more vulnerable to severe diseases.

(credit all goes to WHO official site)

If you are more than 5 years old now, please, halt for a moment, if you got the time, say a lil' prayer to thank your parent for doing a great job into taking good care of you, to raise you what you are today! I believe there is a prayer from every religion for our awesome parents.

As for this, do finish watching the video from Lifebuoy, they did one great job!

Where all the 'talking' goes to?

I suppose that picture can speaks a lot for itself. Now recall your last hang out session with your friend, did that expensive smartphone of yours 'sneak' out of your pocket and you have a look on what is happening on the 'other world' like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram?

Have all the conversation stop for a while just to give way to all this clicking on the smartphone? Now, you think about it, which is more important? 

But sometimes even there is one guy who keep telling his/her friend around to stop doing it and all, friends ignorance is way higher so, this is what we can do...

An easy game, many had done it and many had felt the effect...The Stacking Phone game.

Many might have done this when you read this, but for those that have no idea on what is this about, this is how the game rolls,

First, everybody put their phone either faced down or another way round and stack it up together (like in the picture)

Secondly, let the phone so, and nobody is allowed to check on their phone and no answering even it is ringing and going to explode soon.

What happen if one checks? Easy, he or she pays the entire bill that come later (don't lah you 'ngek' the person later)

The game ends when the bill come or someone checks the bill, as easy as that!

The other part goes for those camps or any activities or such. (this I learned in one of the church camp that I recently attended)

Before anything starts, do let all the participants know that phone will be keep and before that do let them have some time to call their family members or anybody to let them know if anything emergency, do have an emergency contact numbers in the camp itself. After all the calls had been made, give them a sealed bag and asked to put their phone and sealed it

What happens in that one or two days without their phone, many will be amazed, many will feel the 'special' side of the effect, this I promised you for many had agreed, well what are you waiting for? Start talking and put your phone aside!

Faith in Humanity restored!

It's another month gone since I last write something here. Many apologies for that!

Well, let's get going to what I wanted to write about, alright, human had been around on earth for many years, some believe man actually had walked to earth with dinosaur many years back, some believe we exist after the dinosaur era. One thing for sure, we had been here long enough!

The famous evolution process by scientist Darwin. That we are type of monkey and evolve to cope with our environment into what we are today. Evolution takes process even now, for we need to change to blend into weather, the environment, situation of place that we stay, that is why there are different skin color!

But apart from physical changes, mental and spiritual changes had also take place in our daily life. Many years ago, some prefer war to solve issues, causing deaths.

Some still prefer it today but not as bad as what it used to be I suppose.

#justsaying

Apart from war, actually human starts to behave negatively in normal life, kids do not helped out their parents as much anymore, they stay in their room and stick to their electronic devices. Young men do not helped old ladies to open door or blind men cross the road anymore, all that we learned in morale class is not been executed in normal lifetime. Which that is a very sad case.

Although all around us, many bad things had popped out and show us there are not many good youngsters, actually there are still some...check the video out.

Now, he thinks that the world could be better just that, can we now change the world? 

A Story to Share

The Story goes like this,

Once there was an old man with a boy bringing a donkey into town to be sold for some money. As they were walking out, there was a decent merchant saw them walking with the donkey, 

So he said, "why such a fool? When there is a donkey to ride but you walk with the transport?"

So the old man and the boy thought riding the donkey was a better idea, so hop on and they continue their journey, not far from where they met the previous merchant, they saw a lady carrying plants on her head,

She said, "what a terrible animal abuse! Burdening a poor donkey with two human!"

So the old man and the boy came down and think maybe only one person should ride the donkey. So the old man told the young boy to stay on the donkey as they continue their journey. Few more kilometers, they met a young, attractive lady,

She said, "what a disrespectful lad! Riding the donkey instead of giving the old man the privilege!"

Embarrassed by such statement, the boy came down and told the old man to ride the donkey as he continue on foot, so came to another point, where they met a nomad, and again,

He said, "An old man, wise of experienced does not pity the kid who is walking on his foot?" 

So, here is the thing, they had did all, riding together, riding one by one, not riding the poor donkey, but still, there is people who are not satisfied with what we do, so it is sufficient when we had did our best, cause that is all that matters! Happy Wednesday!

A Legend, very near to myth...

Bruce Lee, is a legend, a myth, doing things that not many others could do. But he had long left us for the after world. But there is another one, another legend, alive and kicking...Mr. JACKIE CHAN

Whoever watch Chinese action pack movies, and do not know who is Jackie Chan, I could confirm your movie is Chikai (lousy). Stage name Jackie Chan (Chan Kong Sang) is a Hongkies, born 1954 (59 years old) is an actor, director, singer, action choreographer, comedian, producer, entrepreneur, screenwriter and STUNTMAN himself. There are many infos about Jackie Chan on the wikipedia as you can read it yourself, how bout we go for some interesting facts about the big man!

FACTS~!

Many action pack actors or actress, they have their own stuntman, their second guy so that those guys can replace them for the screen whenever it is too dangerous for the actor/ actress themselves to shoot, for example:

Amazing, buffed Dwayne The Rock Johnson with his doubles.

Almost all of his movies are with fists and guns, John Travolta with his doubles.

And there is more, but Jackie Chan? He NEVER USES DOUBLES, for the rest with doubles... *rookies!*

His list of injuries and cracked bones are crazy, broken nose, 3 times. ankle once, most of his fingers, both cheekbones, elbows, skull, dislocated shoulders, broke his vertebra, nearly lost one of his eyes in the Police Story and had suffered from brain hemorrage. If you tell me, you don't respect this guy, I have nothing else to say.

I was quite surprise, many did not know that actually Jackie Chan is a family man too! He is a guy with wife and kid! I bet there are some of you who go, "yea?"

Here!

This is Lin Feng Jiao, the WIFE! and I bet many of you know also goes, ehhh...this woman's face seem familiar, where have I seen her before...well, if you watch many of Jackie Chan's movie, she is in one!

Remember in CZ12, where at the end, Jackie Chan was all wrapped up with bandage and all then there is a woman who came in and surprise him? Yup! That is Mrs Chan!

And the kid!

30 years old Jaycee Chan, the only decedents, a singer, performer and also actor! But with his dad crazy huge name, I would comment, Jaycee is nothing close to the dad.

Alright, next up, how bout some stories about the son and the father? that will be next post! :)

Worst in 10 years time.

After 10 years, the fatal accident in Genting turns out to be one of the worst...having 37 confirmed dead and the rest injured from the total of 53 passengers.

Photo credit to www.thestar.com.my

The reason behind the tragic incident have yet to be identified for the dead also includes the driver of the bus, but the initial assessment according to the rescue team was, the bus skidded due to the steepness of the road and causes the bus to go over the divided and plunge into the gorge.

Half of the passengers were foreigners mainly from China, Bangladesh and Thailand. And as for survivors, there were 6 Malaysians, 3 Indonesians, 4 Bangladeshis, 1 Thai and 1 Korean nationality. 6 are still in critical stage and one had been declared save.

There were over 450 rescuers from the fire department, police department and also the civil defense involve in such operations, let us pray for their work, also pray to the victims may they rest in peace and to the families may they stay strong after such devastating incident which should be a happy day for everyone.

*just an extra information, this worst crash of the nation, happen so 'coincidentally' during an event, yes...the hungry ghost festival, which is, right on the day when the gate of hell opens the widest to let all the spirits out from the lower realm*

now it's you to judge, coincidentally...or not :)

Trololo man

It seems like the video went viral for this one, I do not know how far it reaches, I bet it is quite a numbers, owh I just checked! It was 2 million plus, it was just a cat...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dIR3XFuY4Qs

So yea, the song behind it was damn catchy for many, well at least for me! So I went on the net to search, who is the real guy behind the original song, but the problem is, all I heard on that particular video was a guy go, "yeyeyeye, lalalalala". So what to search? What to type in the search box? Well, the internet is wonderful, I just type, "yeyeyeye" on YouTube, amazingly, this is what showed up.

Apparently I also found that, one of my favorite Chinese song also entitled "YeYeYeYe" but I know that song, so I scrolled down a lil' bit, there I saw, weird Russian singing with Lyrics right? So I clicked, and...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0f-91fB8y-w

Enjoy the song!

And later after that I was like, what the hell right, how could the song made it? I mean like, there is no lyrics in the song, nothing interesting about the guy, and there's no half naked girl in the MTV

*credit to vevo*

But there was not even one second clip of such thing, so...WikiPedia Time!

So guys, meet Eduard Khil, a singer from Russia, active years 1955 till the year he passed away at 77 years old, which is the year 2012, he was famous, for he is first one to come out with the trololo which is a famous line for meme! He won many prizes in Russia, all way before meme was even on people's mind, or maybe even before the inventor were born. So, as a tribute, many had known this guy, but as my personal tribute, it was from these guys...so enjoy! *for more info, search for Eduard Khil in wikipedia by clicking his name!*
