The Longest Blog Entry Ever... hehehe...

I Have a Dream... and there boomed Martin Luther King with his renowned speech in the history of slavery, domination and freedom...

I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal."

but... i had some dreams... some dreadful dreams... torturous dreams that brought shivers and goosebumps... the not yet nightmares... a thin divide between dreams and nightmares i guessed... nau'zubillah... quite shaken by them though the sun has streaked its light all over the kingdom of earth... though it has gone back to its warm slumber... rekindling its warmth onto the other parts of livelihood...

The End...

there went the final episode of yo soy betty la fea... a happy ending... and then they lived happily ever after as general folklores like to end themselves with... indeed... there is a continuation for the telenovella in an episode called Ecomoda... erkk... how about that NTV7? (-_^) now, the major question is how on earth did i get glued to this just ended telenovella? plainly and simply because in one way or another, betty seems to mirrorise me (emph... mirrorise? heheheh...) ;-p

i still remember the old days when i learnt literature... at the end of the class when we had finally finished our readings on the assigned novel or short stories or poems or any of the shakespeare's pieces... we would be given a task... to come out with the summary of the reading piece, its theme, its messages, and sometimes for poems we were asked to literally "operate" the poems... to sort out the many styles and to look at its poetic devices... ultimately to look at its significance in relation to the real everyday life situation... opening our minds to the realms of mankind which sometimes are far fetched... far reached... beyond the capacity of the thinking mind... the absurd... the frank reality... the good... the bad... everything that can be measured... everything that falls into the mayhaps of infinity... everything that can be pondered... indeed... words are sharper that the swords themselves... there goes my literary rambles... hahaha... we were indeed practising the role of a surgeon only 'safer' because we dealt with words and phrases and thank god there were no blood, intestines or veins involved... hehehe...

now... now... let me come to the gist of today's blog... the messages cum the theme of yo soy betty la fea... the highlights... the read between the lines stuffs... these encompass aspects like economics, politics, status quo, etc... there are many indeed but let me list only the few outstanding ones and all of these are within the boundry of humanity and the aesthetics... these somehow have an indirect touch with the 'otherness' of me and they might linger around my past experience in the so-called man and woman relationship... sabor aje la... hehehe... therefore, to enhance the effectiveness in relating the depth of the discussion, i would put my mind and words in a new genre called the code-switching genre... hahaha... which is not really 'effective' to the eyes and ears of linguists, grammarians and language experts... hehehe... but what the heck... it is my blog... my expressions... sekati lima posen aaa... yehaaa!

first and foremost... cinta tak semestinya bersatu... and this refers to what marcela had gone through... truly... marcela loved armando endlessly but nak buat macam mana... walaupun dah bertunang tetapi jodohnya tiada... armando was madly in love with betty... though marcela was trying her best to win armando's heart... armando dah tak cinta... maka bertepuklah marcela sebelah tangan...

marcela pun ada flawsnya yang tersendiri... dia demanding... hmmm... dia terlalu cemburu (well... siapalah yang tak cemburu kalau tunangnya adalah playboy... armando ni pun satu... nak kena blasah ni... heheh) tapi let me emphasise the word terlalu... dia terlalu mengongkong... pyschologically, from experience and friendship with guys, i think guys do not really like the idea of kena kongkong dan kena leter... and this reminds me of one beautiful note of advice from mr. cupid... if you love somebody you should give it a pair of wings. i bet if marcela could constrain herself from nagging and tailing armando... if she could stop being a jerk i.e. to cast scornful remarks at the fea of betty... perhaps the chance for her to win armando back would be brighter... but that is totally another different story... kalau marcela baik dan armando pulak buat pe'el... i might want to set an alliance with marcela and blasah tulang blakang armando di atas kerambangan matanya... hehehe... hey... win armando? iurgghhh... an ego booster for a man... having two women fighting for him... ceh... buang boreh ajo... kekeke...

anyway, to come back to the main idea... alas! marcela was kicked or had kicked herself to the reality and her senses... she admitted that she had failed in the fea's hands... she had to admit the fact that her fiance was in love with the ugly betty... the betty whom she had mocked and looked at with all the jests that she could muster... that betty... though marcela loved armando very much yet she could do nothing to dissuade armando from his faith and love towards betty... she withdrew herself... she gave wings to her love... she let go... iurghhh... painful... trust me... i know how it felt and wish that i wouldn't feel it again... never... ever... blewp... a taboo... a painful recollection that needs to be deterred from any narration... :-( cinta tak semestinya bersatu... relevant tak highlight yang pertama ni? boleh aje aku elaborate lagi ni nak bagi lagi mantap dan bernas tapi cukup cukuplah ni... let's go to the second highlight...

secondly... beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder... tak cantik di mata kita tapi di mata orang siapa yang tahu... don't judge a book by its cover... cantik luaran tak semestinya dalamannya cantik... yup... this refers to those yang sama sejenis dengan patricia fernandez... analogous to buah durian aaa... dan tak cantik diluar tetapi dalamannya cantik suci murni gitu... yup... hidup betty dan mereka yang seangkatan dengan betty... analogous to buah manggis aaa... oleh itu jangan kutuk orang yang tak cantik just like what hugo did... setiap orang adalah cantik tetapi kita yang tidak kenal dan belum tahu di mana kecantikkannya bersemadi... physical beauty will definitely fade but inner most beauty will forever prevail... oleh itu... bila memilih teman hidup... biarlah kita benar-benar kenali hati budinya...

yang kurik itu kendi
yang merah itu saga
yang molek itu budi
yang indah itu bahasa

kecantikan luaran boleh diadjust... yang tak cantik boleh mekap di salun... yang obese boleh mendapatkan nasihat dan bimbingan dietician terlatih... ehem... jangan main sapu ajek over the counter medication... mudarat badan... nasihat tulus dari pengalaman sendiri untuk mereka yang diet freak... yang terlalu kurus pun boleh dapatkan nasihat doktor atau minum appeton.. hehehe... tengok ajelah the gossip queens kat ecomoda tu... pawerrr... tonjang, shontot, bulat, old tie, minah black, busty... semuanya boleh kelihatan cantik with the right expert advice, right adjustment and the right adornment... tapi... malang... malang... amat malang bagi mereka yang mendapat spesis jenis ini... iaitu... spesis yang dah la physical outlook pun tak cantik ditambah pula dengan hati yang busuk berkarah... sudah jatuh ditimpa tangga... nau'zubillah...

anyway, this highlight reminds me of William Butler Yeats's poem, Easter 1916... a terrible beauty is born... in which Yeats sees a “terrible beauty” being born out of the heroism of ordinary men... ordinary yet beautiful... which is more important? the inner beauty or the outer beauty? i am bound to seek the answer through an experimentation and sacrifice that would indeed sound a bit extreme... hahaha... so far... the outer beauty strikes the highest score... blewppp... payah... payah... lelaki zaman sekarang? errpp... i would prefer to reserve the comments to myself... ehehe... ;-p

third... intellectual marriage... i personally put betty and armando's in this category... yup... we know that armando is a playboy... a lustful man... pantang nampak yang berdahi licin... anyway... his love for betty is founded on betty's pure characteristics... betty's innocence... betty's intelligence... not merely on her beauty... well... betty became beautiful only after her venture into the modelling business with catalina angel... long after armando's love was rooted for her... intellectual marriage... this is what my ayah always advocate me into... blewppp... difficult to get yet not impossible... he told me all about his love story with emak... cecewah... kelako dengar cerita romantik orang zaman dulu-dulu... very authentic... bersopan... malu-malu... yet full with the romantic sense... hehehe... and again i said silently to myself... payah... payah... lelaki zaman sekarang? satu dalam seribu? blewppp... oppsss... refrain... refrain yourself from making any gender bias comments... hehehe...

what is an intellectual marriage? wow... i can come out with a thesis about it... hehehe... just joking... who is me to talk about marriage... clueless... and if i were to talk about it... i might commit pembohongan yang nyata... kekeke... *wink* anyway, part of it is intelligibly embedded and covered in mr. fajar's 06/02/03 entry... do check it out! :-)

above all... in the final episode of betty la fea... a comical potrayal of the church authority really attracted my attention... selalunya paderi perkahwinan akan berwajah serius yet with a tinge of happiness... tetapi masa betty dan armando melangsungkan upacara soul binding mereka... alahai... paderi tu kelako banget... selamba ajek taruh betty dan armando... nasihatnya selamba yet amat bermakna dan mendalam... agaknya culture keagamaan mereka begitu kot... unlike paderi dalam cerita rosalinda tuh... serius abis... anyway... we will now come to the final selected highlight...

teng... teng... teng... finally...

finally... jangan gossip dalam opis... hehehe... jangan jadi kaki sibuk... jangan jadi kaki kepoh... buat kerja masing-masing dengan bersungguh-sungguh... kalau anda terasa seperti nak jadi yang sedemikian... volunteer diri kepada boss anda untuk menginap membuat kerja di dalam setor kecik bilik boss... hehehe... banyak keuntungannya... kerja tip top dan silap-silap boleh kawin terus dengan boss anda... amaran! pastikan kedua-dua anda dan boss anda masih bujang... anda tidak mahu dilabelkan sebagai perampas bukan? ;-)

anyway... anyhow... why i didn't put love is blind as one of the favourite highlights... maleh aaa... sekati lima posen aku la aku nak taruk ke tidak... hehehe... bagi aku cinta armando terhadap betty bukannya buta... armando memula amat geli gila babas kat betty ni despite his respect towards her as a human being... i mean sexually laa... masa first nak cium pun kena ada gambar adriana arbodela... jijik sangat aaa tuh... tapi lama-lama bila dia dah lama mengenali diri betty... he had forgotten about her ugly face... yup... dia jadi buta pada wajah sebenar betty tetapi celik pada kemuliaan hati betty... sampai lepas membuat hubungan intim dengan betty dia tidak mampu lagi layan marcela dan perempuan-perempuan lain... perghhh... power tuh influence betty dalam kehidupan dia... oleh itu... apa sebenarnya yang aku nak cakap yek... hehehe... aha! kenalilah dulu hati budi pasangan masing-masing sebelum membuat keputusan yang besar di dalam hidup ini...

erkkkk... tapi tok nek moyang kita dulu main family matchmake ajek... how come hubungan mereka amat berkekalan sehingga ke anak cucu? yelah... in comparison to orang-orang sekarang ni... bercinta berkahwin masuk suratkhabar masuk tv tapi tup tup cerai... maleh nak komen pepanjang... tapi jawapan kepada persoalan ini ada... iaitu... intention... niat yang disertakan dengan strong religious faith... iman... itu kena ponderlah sendiri...

huyyyoooo... very the panjang one kan? menyampah nak baca kan? betty... betty... betty... hehehe... as i said before... sabor aje la... bergerutup tulang pinggang aku lenguh menaip entry kali ini... puas hati betul aku dapat membebel dengan panjang tetapi ni pun belum lebar sangat ni... cecukuplah tuh... lagi panjang lagi banyak silapnya... hehehe... anyway, above highlights are the things that made me addicted? nope that's a strong word... errmmm... glued to the tv and watched the telenovella... sticking to it like those green slimy moss sticking on an ancient boulder... alahai...tapi aku nih skeptikal banyak tentang kebenaran cerita betty ni... berlaku ke? berlaku ke? aku kuat merasakan ini hanyalah fiction semata-mata... khayalan indah yang ternyata palsu...

betul ke ada orang lelaki handsome dan kaya pulak tu yang boleh jatuh cinta dengan perempuan hodoh? tipulah... aku akan terus skeptikal dan skeptikal selagi belum tengok real hard proof... yang selalunya terjadi adalah yang vice versa... hehehe... kebanyakkan perempuan ni tak memilih sangat asalkan lelaki tuh jujur dan bertanggungjawab cukup aaa... tapi valid ke apa yang aku cakap ni? jangan percaya dengan statement aku tuh... secara membabi buta ajek tuh... setakat ni aku ada tengok lelaki yang boleh tahan la jugak rupanya tapi tak kaya mana aaa yang jatuh hati dengan perempuan yang so and so ajek... aku dengar orang kata lelaki tu mungkin ada hidden agenda di sebalik semuanya... ntahnyer... aku dengar ajek... 100% tak buleh percaya aaa... alahai... nih yang aku terasa macam nak nyanyi lagu sighnomore shakespeare tuh... hehehe...

apa-apa hal pun personally aku rasa telenovella tu worth la dilayan... mang aii... dua tahun baru abis tuh... perghhh... at least boleh la orang-orang yang merasakan dirinya seperti betty tuh layan angan-angan nak mendapat jodoh macam armando... very the optimist punya angan-angan... hehehehe... tak apa... it does no harm to hope... but to hope without any labour is fruitless... eh... mana aku dengar tuh... aha... dak gandalf cakap dalam buku lotr... mang aiii... macam islamic ajek bunyinya... harapan dan usaha disertai dengan tawakal... haa... yang itu agama kita tuntut...

huargghhh... dah mengantuk la pulak... jari jemari dah penat... the longest entry ever la katakan... hehehe... aku tulis perkara-perkara di atas for my future reminder... ingat sebelum kena :p thrice bitten... alahai... berapa kali la aku dah kena bitten ni... dan bukannya bitten ajek malahan stabbed pun udah dah... karang kalau cakap forever shy karang... tak ikut sunnah la pulak... ikut flow ajek la... papehal... abiskan belajar dahulu...

huarghhh... amatlah lotih mindaku hari ini... serius mirius kan blog entry aku hari ni? hehehe... selamat malam mummy... selamat malam dunia... tatatututiti... sekian. terima kasih.
