Hey! Ma-til-da; Ma-til-da; Ma-til-da, she take me money and run a-Venezuela. I love songs by Harry Belafonte and this one was surely a catchy calypso track called Matilda, cheeky music and a testament to good music in the 50s. I would like to see a reggae pop band releasing this as a dance pop...
Everyone Has a Price
posted by Gallivanter
We do. Unfortunately it’s a fact and none of us can escape it, despite how much we try to cling on to our values and morals. If I give you a cockroach and ask you to eat it, you would tell me to go to hell. If I give you RM1 to eat it, it would probably be the same answer. If I offer...

Comparing Wealth Amongst Friends
posted by Gallivanter
I have to admit, I have done that a lot in the past, not so much these days. I always wondered how some of my friends hit the jackpot while I’m still trudging away making ends meet. While I am aware that it’s unhealthy, I used it to energize my motivation to improve myself. Yes,...
It’s Important to Protect Your Non-Work Time
posted by Gallivanter
I’m a firm believer in this as I clearly draw the line between work and play, and there are no grey areas. Some of us take our free time for granted and do not protect it at all cost. When you work, you work, when you’re off, you relax. Sure you will say you will not earn extra...
Nelly – Nothing Without Her (Mp3 Download) Review
posted by Gallivanter
I’m impressed with Nelly’s talent in this tune, because instead of his usual style of rapping, he opts to sing the song instead! Yes, like an R&B singer! His latest album, “Nelly 5.0″ is just another album, with “Just a Dream” and “Nothing Without...
I Loved Reading Enid Blyton’s The Five Find-Outers
posted by Gallivanter
I think most of us who grew up in the 80s and early 90s would immediately recognize the name Enid Blyton. She has written a lot of children’s books but the one that stood out the most was a boy name Fatty and the Find-Outers, a bunch of kids going about their neighborhood trying to solve...
There’s More to Life Than Just Your Job
posted by Gallivanter
Remember that, you can spend your whole life making all the money in the world, and by the time you’re ready to spend, you run out of time. For all you dudes out there who live for the future and not the present, look at the bigger picture because it’s the present that counts....
Why do Foreigners Believe Asian Women are Easy?
posted by Gallivanter
Yes, that’s the statement made by a few Europeans I know as they were counting their one-night bonkadeedoodah like it’s a race for sainthood. I wonder if there is some truth in it. Before you women go all berserko and defensive over this quote, something must have obviously made...
Why Do People Treat Money With Respect?
posted by Gallivanter
I noticed the Indians here in Malaysia, especially in the food business, when the exchange of moolah takes place, you’ll see them almost-beggar-like stance, where they use one hand holding the wrist of the hand that is giving the cash, and the receiver does the same too. I wonder if this...
My Valentine’s Day Thoughts
posted by Gallivanter
As much as many of us do not believe in Valentine’s day because of the commercial greed that revolves around it, still I think we should not totally set aside the day itself. It doesn’t have to take place at some fancy joints with you shelling out money through your nose where on...
Sushi on Naked Women?
posted by Gallivanter
I don’t know about you, but I find this very disgracing to say the least. I just cannot fathom the thought process of these women, who parade themselves in the nude, lying down, with only sushi covering their nudity. How do you agree to such things without losing your pride in the...
