how to end conversations.

let's face it, there are plenty of instances
in our daily lives where we just don't wanna
talk to certain people, usually the judgemental ones.

instead of tagging along and wasting your time,
here are some personal tips on how to end
these unwanted conversations. very quickly.

person A : you spend too much time playing games.
me : it's better than spending too much time being gay.

person B : your detail work is making me look bad.
me : a mirror can make you look bad, let alone my work.

person C : money can't buy happiness, ok.
me : yes it can! i'm richer than you. and i'm happy about it.

yup. evil najmi is back. thankyouverymuchpeople.

love ad of the day.

off the star website today;

a lecturer from uni tun hussein onn posted
the qualities he's looking for in his future wife,
and he didn't mean to offend anyone, but he feels
it was necessary for his potential other half to
understand his job in the academic field.

his list? the woman must have plans to pursue
a PhD programme, be independent, has a great
personality, and must be good in ironing clothes.

dude. ironing. really? ROTFL

wisdom of the day.

morning wisdom from mark twain;

"...if your job is to eat a frog, it's best to do it 
first thing in the morning. and if it is your job to eat 
two frogs, then it's best to eat the bigger one 1st..."

morning wisdom from your buddy najmi;

"...don't eat frogs, eat chicken. and btw, 
if your job is to eat one or two frogs, 
then it's best that you get a better job..."

thankyouverymuch.

small happy point of the day.

my colleague told me earlier today
that he really digs rock music. and
his favourite band is metallica.

as much as i'm happy to hear that
middle-eastern folk also likes rock music,
i'm faaar more happy that he said metallica.

this way, it doesn't make feel THAT old.

concerns of the day.

normally i can be serious when a situation calls for it,
but i couldn't quite believe how serious our conversation
was regarding the impending end of our contracts here.

sometimes i forget for others, they have their spouses /
kids / in-laws / pets / plants / whatever to worry about.
and it really does play a big part in their thinking.

all i think about is whether i'd still find that delicious
prosperity burger from mcdonald's or that cheese mushroom
chicken thingy from kfc once i go home this february.

twenty seventeen.

things i do not want to see anymore in 2017;

1. gals calling themselves / their frens / the products
they're endorsing as "gojes" or "flawless".
usually they're neither.

2. any sort of 'hipster' product. be it donat hipster or
spender hipster or whatever the heck it would be.
actual hipsters are horribly annoying.

3. writing down random and puke-worthy inspirational
quotes, just to find a reason to post your latest selfie.
please oh please do neither.

other than that, happy 2017 everybody!
