Life is not easy for any of us. But what of that? We must have perseverance and, above all, confidence in ourselves. We must believe we are gifted for something and that this thing must be attained ✨

MERDEKA?

I think it's a lot better to say, "Selamat Hari Kebangsaan" rather than "Selamat Hari Merdeka". Merdeka connotes a freedom, and we're not really free, are we? I still think Malaysia is a great country, and I'm very thankful to be a part of it. But I do not delude myself into thinking that any of us living here are truly free.

I think most of us are still very frightened to speak out against the myriad injustices that occur right before our eyes, every day.

To add, there is a culture of divisiveness amongst the races in this country that nobody wants to address. The worst thing about it all, is that the education system we currently have, fosters it.

In 2021, when advanced societies are denouncing notions like 'superior race' and 'the right (religious) way of life', our political parties inch closer to primitive dogma, and those opposing it can't say anything against it, because it's all cloaked under that big untouchable subject called "religion".

What is wrong with us? Where is our voice? We can't simply acquiesce, just because somebody said, "God mandated it." Over history, God has mandated A LOT of reprehensible acts. Once upon a time, that same God even mandated owning slaves. Atrocities like the Holocaust, the Spanish Inquisition and mistreatment and displacement of the Rohingyas were all committed in the name of God.

People should not be afraid to raise their voices and question the authorities, when their rights are being trampled on. More importantly, they should feel compelled to raise their voices against the authorities, when the rights of others are being trespassed on. It is so crucial for us to speak up for them, because these people, these 'others'... they may not have a voice to stand up for themselves.

When we are free to do that, THAT'S when we can say we have attained freedom. That is when we are merdeka.

So until we achieve that, I will wish you Selamat Hari Kebangsaan instead.💜

The Dragon Fly inspired by Bruce Lee, Sylvester Stallone and Frank Medrano.

Took me around 1.5 months to succeed my first full dragon fly (with a partial bent on the waist area) and 3 months to succeed the complete dragon fly.

What this exercise taught me is that once you've mastered the technique, there's no going back. The reflexes, once attained, will always be there, only under one condition that one does not neglect the necessity to use it on a regular basis. Same goes to life & careers, once the fire is attained, the challenge becomes keeping it burning.

Sincerely,
biqto

Tried out 2 very popular blackhead masks because I love to watch videos of blackheads being removed LOLOL?
If you’re lazy to watch the whole video, the last 1 minute I did mention which mask I prefer ?

Price comparison:
Shero Ching $30 (50g)
Maskingdom $38 (50g)

Pain level:
Maskingdom is more comfortable,
Shero Ching is a bit more painful, but not the unbearable kind for me.

Drying time:
Shero Ching dries faster than Maskingdom

Both did well in removing blackheads.

As with other brands sold online, please always buy products from authentic sellers as it’s very easy for factories to copy entire packagings, but the formulas might be totally different.
These brands would have gone through the proper lab testings & attained the required certification to sell in SG, so it’s wise to get from authorised sellers only!

Side note: if you hear snoring in the background while I was talking, that’s Sean ?
Another side note: I’m not selling either masks, this is just a review to share my experience ?
