So What?
I get pissed when I hear things like, “what would the people say if you…. bla bla bla”. I don’t know about you, but I don’t care what people think about me. They don’t know the real me. Their judgments towards me are based on like, what, 10 seconds of stalking me. What does that qualify them as the judge, anyway?
You know what?, I don’t care. Why should I care? Do they give me financial support? Do they pay the clothes for me? Freaking NO! So, why should I care? Give me one solid reason. Pfft. I don’t need it. Unless if I’m politician, I should care. But I’m not. 
For example, just now I was downstairs, grabbing some snacks and when I got back to my room, I caught my mum looking through my laptop, the browser was open and she saw some pictures from this post, When Aida Meets Fad.
Luckily, I wasn’t chatting, doing filthy talk with some strangers on the internet so I’m still innocent. Phew! 
…
Naah, I’m kidding. pfft. I’m not that type of person. it’s a joke. ha ha? 
So, anyways… this is the picture
Mum: Why are you so close to him in the picture?.
Aisyah: No la, it’s just the angle.
Mum: Yea la but what would the people think? People would think that you guys are a couple.
Aisyah: …?
Mum: People are looking, you know.
Aisyah: Mum, just get out of my room. (In a calm tone, but pissed)
Seriously? Being a couple is bad? Well, I’m not going to talk about my mum being narrow minded about these kind of stuffs because that’s just her being overprotective. And, what’s wrong with letting the people get the wrong idea (that we are a couple)? I don’t get her point there. Did she mean that there might be a better guy with a high salary out there and I might have missed my chance? 
Do I have to keep saying, “hey, it’s not what it looks like” whenever I see people staring at me. That’s ridiculous.
Another thing, whatever that we do, I repeat, WHATEVER that we do, we can not please everyone. There will be people who like what we do, who think that we are cool and there will be people who think otherwise. How on earth are we going to satisfy those who dislike us? The good news is, we don’t have to. It’s like trashing the IE hacks.
However, bear in mind that you should care about what your loved ones have to say about you. Because, chances are, they know you. :)
So, next time, if a stranger/someone you barely recognize come up to you and comment about you (be it about how bad you look like, or what you do), don’t just shut up and cry and let them get into you. Say this loud and proud, “So, what?”
(Unless if the stranger looks like a mob, please don’t do it or you might get yourself booked for a trip to the grave. Just nod and say thank you. )
If you have something that you long to do but afraid of people’s reactions, ah, what the hell, just do it, already!

Have something to say? Come on, don't be shy. Just say it out loud!
Wait until your Mum sees a photo of you and a guy who’s Chinese or Malay. Better still…a white dude. :P
Hmm, I wonder if she’s reading your blog. Hi, aunty…!
[Reply]
LOL. Danny, you are funny.
I don’t think that she’s reading my blog. Oh, I actually have some pictures with my Chinese friend. Maybe I should “accidentally” let her see that pic? Man, i don’t know any white dude. any recommendations? LOL.

I can relate to your blog. My mom is similar to yours. She’s always like, what if people see you too together etc etc, honestly I don’t care what anyone thinks, it’s my life and as you said in your blog it’s not like they’re financially supporting you at the end of the day. It’s true that you can’t please everyone, it’s best to please yourself first then think of others.

Every mom is like this. You will be a mom one day, you will come to know of this trait. Whether you embrace it, its your choice.
Anyhow, let me quote Muhammad SAW hadith “God only look at one’s iman.” I believe you can fill in the details yourself. You are one smart chick (bukan nak ampu!), you know better
Happy weekend though
[Reply]
LOL. Yeah, my mom’s like that also… I think a lot of Asian parents are like that… We just have to be friends with the same sex… =/
[Reply]
Eeh, I guess all moms are like that.
Even at school, when they see a girl hanging out with a guy, they assume they’re going out.
[Reply]
WOW. I didn’t know that all mums are like that. I thought it’s just my mum or at least, Asian Mums. Haha! God, I thought I was the unluckiest daughter. LOL
[Reply]
haha. yeah! all mums are the same alright. they probably overprotected ey? my mum always being overprotected. until, she couldn’t said anything because I doesn’t care what she said to me. just ignore whatever your mum said to you. you are you. being yourself is what you are. aaa. rite? haha.
owh yea. mayb ur mum is very religious person also? yela. islam kn tak elok kalo nmpk laki and p’rempuan without any relationship[bukan muhrim]. :) just giving a stupid thought. hahx. ignore me pls.
nway. nice site though. really admire your design.

[Reply]

[Reply]
Elvinado: But currently I’m not. :)
@ MK: Excuse me? correct me if I’m wrong but I think you got me wrong. That was a joke, if I didn’t make it obvious. or maybe you can’t see it as a joke? I’m sorry, then.
Ass: why ass? I hope you are aware of ass (as in butt), ass. huhu.
[Reply]
i was joking also lah ^^
sorry
[Reply]
Phew! I thought I was making the wrong impression towards people. (but frankly, it’s a lil bit true, to be realistic. i mean, generally)
btw, you must’ve encountered some bugs here. I’m editing the comment’s page! haha
[Reply]
well..ass doesnt mean “ass” right? haha better than butt..hodoh la! anyway it just a nick, not name…dont be so “minded”
[Reply]
I know, it’s not a name, silly. LOL. it’s just that it’s ass. i can’t stop help it but to imagine it as butt. you should be thankful that i don’t think at it as:
“ass what?”
“assh*le”
hehe.
and, i know it comes from names like asrul, right? :p
[Reply]
pity to you..give your mom time,maybe she’ll understand. btw, nice site. i like yyour design
[Reply]
Yeah2, I know. All mums are like that. They’re just being overprotective, you know. Especially girls. As for me, it’s a bit different. My mum is still being overprotective over me but I think my dad is more err.. I dunno. overprotective that my mum is? Lol~
But now, I think both of them are okay with me having a relationship with my bf. My mum seems to like him so much that she asks me about him every time she calls me. They’ve met once. And my dad, he sent me to the mall for my first date with my bf. So I guess, he didn’t mind either after all. I was 19 back then. But of course, they did tell me to take care of myself and be good. ^^
[Reply]
haha..hammpeh! why u think that much haa??
[Reply]
haha.. my gf also like that.. as for me, i dun give a fck
[Reply]
Ass, sorry if my wild imagination offends you. haha.
Mira: oh, of course they should be fine with that. you are already in uni. thats good that your bf is well-liked by your fam. hope things work out between you and him.

Very artsy new theme. :D Gotta love the rainbows up there. ^_^ Anyway, I seem to have nothing much to comment on this post… I’m over the whole “teenager”, “who cares” phase. :) And uh, did you realise WordPress is missing its P in your footer? I was wondering if that was intentional, like how Categories has no E in the sidebar. :P
(Sorry. I notice details!)
