Sunday

Hi Honey!  How is your Sunday today?  Are you relaxing by the beach, or are you relaxing in front the the TV, or are you working and therefore not relaxing at all?  Well please take time to relax and enjoy life.  After all, you are my Queen and all you really need to do is be beautiful.  And you are beautiful.  So please take care of yourself.  It's always busy on Sundays for me.  I have a lingering cough from having the fan blast in my face all night (I have no AC).  Otherwise, it's so hot I can't sleep.  So I take cough syrup which is a narcotic, and I had to struggle through my Sunday chores, and be worn out for voice training.  My voice was so tired, I had to stop half an hour early.  That cliche about a singer lazing around all day before the gig is no joke: the body simply cannot be exhausted in order to sing well.  Nothing special on the menu, either.  Just ramen for lunch, and a double cheeseburger with fries for dinner.  Stable food for my tummy.  Yeah, I know it's probably not Erin food.  But I don't have salad fixings right now.  After this, I have to spend the rest of the night on the computer.  I like computer work.

Hi Natty honey!  Are you keeping warm?  What are you eating?  Oh I wish you would show off your food for me to see. We all want to see!  It's not as sweltering hot as it has been lately, so it's not much an effort to get comfortable.  It's almost spring there, isn't it?  Almost time to get sunny!  Yes, I am watching a movie right now.  It's a great movie, but the computer hasn't assigned it to you yet.  Happy Sunday, darling!

My life to give

Yes Honey, it would have been so much simpler if I had the money, don't you think?  You would have had a ring, a house, kids perhaps, and a long time ago to boot.  But since that isn't the case, what's left is my life to give.  I put everything I have on the line.  But not to the humans: I give it all to God.  Because I seek my reward from God, that I be married, safely married, and happily married.  The good news is, I did have some extra money today so I went and got the fixings for chocolate mousse.  That is some expensive stuff, but I had to get the best chocolate.  Whipped cream is so expensive in this town.  I thought of buying strawberries as a garnish, but I didn't.  Could you believe that they didn't have glass bowls at the supermarket?  So I bought a stone bowl instead.  I'm just going to let it all sit in the fridge until next month.  Hey, maybe you would like to come have chocolate mousse with me early next month?

Hi Natty honey!  How's school?  I hope you are doing well and having a great time.  Oh, no movie assignment today.  You should be watching your own movies, and all the time too.  Study with a movie on.

Oh, the drama!

People are sure getting all emotional about this amusement park.  Conspiracy, death etc.  And so close to the elections, too.  But my decision is made and final: I WILL NOT ENDORSE OR BE INVOLVED WITH A LOCAL AMUSEMENT PARK.  They don't need me, right?  They can do it themselves then.

Hi Honey!  How are you, my darling?  I hope you are not overworking.  Please get lots of rest and eat properly.  I finally cut the grass today!  I love you with all my heart.  You are my wife inshaAllah.

Hi Natty honey!  How's school?  I hope big business is leaving you alone while you study.  You are my 2nd wife inshaAllah, and I love you.

Nothing much going on today...

Hi Honey!  How are you today, my beloved?  You are the light of my life, I love you and I would wait for you forever.  All the while I work towards you, all alone but what else is there to do than to love you?  I'm sorry I was all business yesterday.  How's work, by the way?  I'm sure everybody has their money on you.  Nothing much going on here today, just the usual chores.  It keeps me busy though.  I haven't done any yard work in a week since I cut down that tree, so I better cut the grass tomorrow inshaAllah.  I do prefer working indoors, though.  I'm so lazy!

Hey Natty honey!  How is school?  I hope you are studying hard and will become an A student.  That is something that I cannot do- I spent my youth going straight to work.  So please do me proud and do well at school.

Theme park

Why are the tourists here?  Perlis has long been a poor state, small with nothing special about it.  The locals grow rice and recently, mango farming has proven more lucrative.  So why are the tourists here?  MashaAllah, I provide a musical attraction.  The guests need something to do while they wait.  Of course they can eat, or go to Langkawi or South Thailand, but the locals are talking about building an amusement park.

There are 2 reasons why I oppose the building of a theme park here.  First is because this tiny state cannot handle the financial burden.  It cannot afford to go into debt to build and maintain a world class amusement park attraction.  Of course it could build something poor or mediocre, but it remains the same financial failure.  Especially if not enough people go there.

Secondly is the spiritual nature of the situation.  Allah has made this place attractive due to attractions and resources that are already available.  A theme park would make the people more interested in the theme park over Allah, regardless whether it succeeds or fails.  Plus they would need my constant involvement, but no one here has given me a single cent to finance the music.  Do they expect me to survive under my current situation?  I can't marry my Erin and Natty, I can't buy musical instruments, I can't buy computer equipment.  Why should I be stupid enough to expect them to care about the music when they don't help me financially?  I serve Allah.

Theme park disasters


Abandoned theme parks

What is more practical is to build attractions that can be sustained by resources that are already available.  For example:
RC boat racing


Drone racing


Skateboarding

If they are itching to build something, then build a skatepark.


Kite festivals

And of course,

The crowd thins out...

The buses and the tourists are gone!  For now.  Hi Honey!  How are you, my most beautiful and precious love?  How's work?  That was the Chinese New Year weekend, and now that the 4 day weekend is over, I can eat out, go shopping and go to the mosque again.  Crowds are a seasonal thing of course, but this town has definitely gotten a lot busier since I got back here in 2008.  Of course I tried to warn people about it.  They didn't listen to me then, and they don't listen to me now.  Who listens to me?  Little girls and animals.

Hi Nattikins!  Yes, I have a movie assignment for you to watch.  This is not my favorite movie by any means, but somehow it crept into my database.  Computers are very weird sometimes, and my computer seems to enjoy making me watch this movie over and over again.  For a reason I guess, because it's very relevant to our lives.  The movie is "Speed 2: Cruise Control".  Tourists!  Please watch the movies I ask you to watch when I ask you to watch them.  Movie Star.

Hi

Hi Honey!  How's it going today?  I hope everything is going smoothly for you, and that you are feeling great and having a marvelous time.  I'm in a lot better mood than I was yesterday.  What wasn't funny yesterday is very funny today, and I couldn't get angry if I tried.  In fact, I feel a bit high.  I'm still keeping out of sight- tourists are everywhere.  So I spend my time on the computer- I'm training an apprentice right now. 

Hey Natty!  Wassap, beautiful girl?  I don't have a movie assignment for you today.  The computer chooses what movie for you to watch.  When I first started my TV station about 1998, I would watch shows and movies over and over again.  I'm still doing that, but not as often as I used to.  I find that it can bend reality even.  Right now, I'm looping "The Devil Wears Prada" when I'm working on Second Life.
