I've been conned!!!!

Genting Highland has this china man drawing self portrait pictures. He is a very professional artist, no doubt bout it. The reason I say so is because he drew a girl and it looked EXACTLY like her. 99% similiar. And the portrait is laminated. The portrait comes with 3 sizes and they are all different prices. Small RM50 Medium RM60 and Large RM80.

I thought it would be quite reasonable and I decided to be drawn by that china man. Being myself (the stingy me), I chose to have the RM50 drawing. But unexpectedly, I paid RM80 for the whole portrait. I'll tell you why.

It took 10 minutes to draw my face and for the first time I have facial cramp. I constantly doing my trade mark smile (showing my front row of teeth when I'm smiling, like doing a toothpaste ad).

While the artist drawing me, there are some cekik senang people who actually stood there for 10 minutes to watch the drawing process. So I kinda wasted their 10 minutes on me :)

So after the drawing process, the man showed me my portrait. Sigh, I don't look anything (maybe abit) like that except the hair and forehead. My eyes are smaller in reality but the portrait's eyes are like fish ball eyes. And and I look like a china cartoon character.



Anyway, the RM80 part. I didn't realized that the drawing doesn't include the plastic cover (lamination) that prevent the ink from smearing. And the stupid plastic cover cost me RM30. If I choose not to put the plastic, the ink will definitely smear and whats the point drawing it in the first place. ARGHHHH.

So, thats the whole I've been conned story. But I guess its part of my fault also, for not asking the price properly. Sigh

Bangsa Malaysia Series

Last weekend, I went to this workshop on non-discrimination. It was a follow up event after my participant in the training of trainers on non-discrimination education organized by KOMAS (Pusat Komunikasi Masyarakat). I know I'm confusing you guys.

But anyway, the workshop I went last weekend was held in Hindu Youth Training Centre, Klang. Ya I know, they have nice bak kut teh there but thats not the point. So basically, we (with the other 3 facilitator) were there to introduce and understand human rights and its basic principles (UDHR - Universal Declaration of Human Rights). In UDHR, it contains about 30 articles laying out the basic rights of a human being. Heres the link to the articles : http://www.un.org/Overview/rights.html

Besides that, we were also there to help them to understand bout race discrimination and to raise awareness on its effects amongst the general public. And not forgetting to eliminate racial discrimination and install unity. I sounds easy eh? But trust me its NOT.

Below are a few pictures taken during the workshop





This is what they wrote when I ask them whats good about Malaysia. Its part of exploring the reality io=

Well, there is a good and bad side of everything and this is the not so good part.


There are some other activities as well.

I've got to go now. Bye

P/S: Klang is currently repairing the roads, so prepare to get stuck in the jam like I did :)
