Frictional Blog 13 [The Disappointment Edition]

BAAAMM!!!


So I'mma make this post as short as possible, since I miss my Playstation 3 so badly (awwwwww)... =(
Let's get it started, shall we??

Topic #1: Pro Wrestling - WWE Elimination Chamber is disappointing.


Last week I said that the build-up was poor.. Well, unfortunately the PPV itself is also the same.. Wow.. Well the 2 Elimination Chamber matches was exciting and all (definitely 2 match-of-the-year candidates here), but seriously, the WWE writers do not know what the company priority is, apparently.. Their most prestigious championship was on the line in the first match of the show?? This is ridiculous!! And what's worse is that the main event of the night was not even a world title match, but a vendetta/vengeance match between John Cena and Kane.. First of all, the PPV name is Elimination Chamber, which basically means that the Chamber matches should be the highlight, the ultimate showcase of the night.. Besides, the top 2 championships are being defended in the 2 Chamber matches.. But what did we get to close the show?? A meaningless, soap-opera style Ambulance match, with SuperCena winning again.. Hey yo, the reason for each and every one of the WWE Superstars to beat the hell out of each other day in and out is to be either the World Heavyweight Champion or the WWE Champion!! Not to settle his differences with some other guy in a match that has nothing to do with a certain event!! But anyways, here are some recaps from the show: CM Punk retained his WWE title by last eliminating the Miz in the 1st Elimination Chamber match of the night, which is a very great match to say the least.. Beth Phoenix retained her Divas title, defeating Tamina Snuka in the process in the best Divas match that I've seen in a very long while.. The 2nd Chamber match did not disappoint, as Daniel Bryan kept hold to his World Heavyweight title after a super-strong performance by Santino Marella.. Jack Swagger defended the United States title in an impromptu match against Justin Gabriel in a short match that was fun while it lasted.. Aaaaaand SuperCena kills Kane and all of the Big Red Machine's momentum in a very, VERY disappointing Ambulance match main event.. Overall, the show was not that bad, but the order of the matches and the choice of main event match just make you asking "What did I ever do to watch such a horrendous booking?".

Topic #2: Personal - My struggle in studying the English language being meaningless is disappointing.


So I got myself a Band 5 (from a scale of Band 1 to Band 6, with 6 being a Shakespeare-ish awesomeness-reeking language user and 1 being a complete retard) in my Malaysian University English Test.. I got a very poor scoring in speaking, but my listening (I got a perfect score for listening, by the way), reading and writing covers it up.. Which basically shows why out of 3 schools and a college that I've been to, 2 of them have had teachers that claimed me to be one of the very best novel American style writer that they had ever met - and I was only like what, 9, 10 years old?? Thanks to God and my family and friends for being very supportive for me, the struggle that I've been through to be quite good in my English was not so felt.. Until recently, when some guy from some university said that my band means ABSO-FRICKING-LUTELY NOTHING!!! Frick this!! He said that although I got a Band 5 and some other dude got Band 1, yet both of us have the same academic and co-curricular achievements, he might have a chance to be picked into the uni over me...... Are you serious bro? You have got to be fricking kidding me.. So I have to pay for a language test that I was told could help me be an ace in the selection of students for the universities and put a lifetime effort on it just to, well, be an ace, only to be told later on that even a Band 1 can be chosen over me?? Screw this.. I want, need and deserve my money back.. I didn't pay for this test to be put on the same shelf with other people who basically knows nothing except paying for and sitting for the test despite knowing almost nothing about their language.. Ahhh, funk it.

Topic #3: Personal - Not being taken seriously is disappointing.


So I've shared my story to some of my friends this past week.. You know, about my plan involving a newly-found sis and a former mentor who loves to issue challenges to me.. While some (in fact, most) of you have been really helpful with all your various solutions and guidance for me, most (in fact, some of the "most" in the former) have been laughing at me, claiming that I was, and I quote, "certainly joking"...... Do I look like I am joking? No, I'm not. I am 100% serious. If I tell you a story while I giggle, smile and laugh at times, does that shouts "I am playing around, and you need to follow that" to you?? Sweet cream on an ice-cream pie!! What in the blue hell of an answer are you expecting?? Hell no!! Hell no. I am being serious in this context. Very serious. Hell, I am dead serious. If this would cost me an eternal shame, then so be it. I just don't care anymore. This ain't about a challenge anymore. This is about me, my crush, my faith in her, my faith on my mother and my 100% faith in Allah S.W.T (God). If my former mentor is to take back his challenge, I would still do it. Why? Because I need to do something right. And if this is the right way, then I'll do it with arms wide open. If there's a bad outcome coming out of this, then shove it to me like a thunder striking the roof of a Prius. I have nothing to lose. As that mentor guy said, "Regardless of the answer, you will win. You will win my respect. You will win her respect. You will win her mother and family's respect. You'll win your mother and family's respect. Hell, even you would pat your back for the rest of your life, telling yourself that you did one heck of a job." The change - the revolution - has already begun. MY change has already begun. My change is not the way I plan it. It is how I make it happen. I will make it happen. On my last day at college, I will make it happen. I will not disappoint all of you who are reading this blog. I will not disappoint those of you who believe in me. I will not disappoint myself. No, I won't. I just will not. Yes, I like her THIS much. Now have faith, and follow that.

So that's all for this week. Make sure you check out all my previous posts, add me on Facebook, follow me on Twitter and subscribe to my Youtube. I'd so totally appreciate it. Until next time. Make sure you'll be there.

STUPIDITY = PERFECTION
Faith. Follow that.
