banksy - the provocative yet mysterious street artist

Political, social, subversive, original. These are some of elements I find in his arts. The ability to portray the baffling social minds into a stencil art form covering the walls around cities and taking it further to overseas (he stenciled the West Barrier in Palestine). I have great admiration for this man. The fact that he keeps himself mysterious by concealing his identity, it surely should reflect his unenthusiastic about fame. Not to mention that his works has been sold for at one time half a million for a piece.
So, why is he doing it? I don't think many graffiti artist started taking their passions on public for money, because it is illegal at the first place, an irresponsible act of vandalism. Not if it's pretty it's not. Back to the main question, why?
Political purpose? probably, but spraying on walls won't bring a government down. Although, his effort is admirable indeed.
Sick of the social distortion?could be. He's got talent, and he surely put it in use, though against the law, but it sure did affect a whole lot of civilians (and surely politicians too).
What talent do i have? What great good did I do to anyone with it? Someday I will...I hope

Selamat Hari Raya Haji

Its good to celebrate this biggest event in my village. Hari Raya Haji is a happening event in Kelantan compare with otthers state (is it true?). Everybody done their part for contribute their responsibility in this relegion.
As we all knows (for the Muslim), Hari Raya Haji is the event of sacrifice the animal ( in Malaysia we use cow). The meat was given to the poorers (sometime, I think almost, the meat was given to their family huhu).

do i stick? or do i quit?

Right now, i'm in a dip. Considering quitting, but still hanging in there. It used to be fun, my work. Although there are times that I thought of quitting then, but that's just pressure. Every morning was a rush. If I wake earlier than usual, I'd be laying out plans of what needs to be done once i reach the office. If I woke up late, I'd be worried and sometimes forgot to brush my teeth. I used to take lesser nicotine break back then, because concentration on my work distracted y nicotine needs.

Now, work is like a routine. Spend more time in front of the pc and do more clicking and typing than thinking. My work somehow limits my creativity. That is something I wish to avoid, and free-hand and the possibility to construct my work as how I like or as how I think is best done is the reason why I took the job in the first place, and with a lesser wage. Now I'm beginning to regret this, and this, I hate.

If my alarm clock wakes me up earlier some mornings, I'd reset the time and sleep again, 'no rush' I lullabied. If I was late to work, 'what the hell, I'm late anyways, why bother'. The best description to be reckon with my poor intimacy with my job is, boredom.

I want a job that wakes me up every morning. I want a drive, a motivation, an excitement, an adrenaline rush, a companion, a reason, a mean of personal contribution and freedom in a 9-5 prison. 

They said I'm choosy. I said, what's wrong with that?

what's your idea of a job?

The Waiting

In the journey of life, we are still waiting and hoping for something new. Yeah, Im waiting for an idea to make music that's different from others and the kind of music that people would like to listen to. By waiting, and hoping that it would just come out from my mind. To seek that, I need a special vocalist..hehe

I'm really out of focus. Just waiting for the mood to make good music. Listening to the radio doesn't help me at all. May be sleep is a good idea..and dreams of hope..
