i went to a concert last night. it was a hongkong band, they were good. the funny thing is, all of the audience, artists, and host were chinese.i could count, only 4 persons in that hall who wasnt chinese. me, my friends, and one caucasian guy. from this event, what are the things that relate to the critical thinking is this statement ==>

"all element in that concert was chinese, it made me feel like i was in China, not Malaysia"

that statement is SIMILE form.

anyway, Selamat Hari Merdeka to Malaysia !!!

movie script ending

this is my second blog entry. the previous blog i wrote -well, typed- about football, and now, i would like to write about movie. yes, movie. why movie ? what movie ? what am i gonna do with that movie ? i let you know after i finish this paragraph. and this paragraph is finished.
living in the city like cyberjaya, honestly, make me want to scream out loud and say "I AM BOREEEEDDDD" . and when i find a new movie, it's just like finding an oasis in the middle of the desert. <==== SIMILE. the last movie that i watched was never back down. it was a fine movie, but it didnt make feel like 'wow, this movie makes me feel great' . that movie was just fine. and thats why, i want to make this movie looks special, classy, and extra ordinary.

here is the real story. about a guy, high school boy who fells guilty about his dad's dead. he tries to run away from the problem by do fights. and there was a time when he, his little brother, and his mom have to move to another city. he had some fights, and he trained to the master of martial arts. and at the end. he won the fights.

so ordinary commercial happy ending movie, isnt it ? so i like to change the story a little bit, to make this movie more interesting. well, for me.

NEVER BACK DOWN v2.01

there is a guy who likes to fight named jake, go to another city because of his brother got a tennis scholarship. (its a real one though). he comes to the new school, the students are good, some not. jake met a mexican-american girl, named baja. bad for jake, baja has a boyfriend named ryan. this ryan is the best fighter in the school, he got skills in karate, jiu jitsu, judo, taekwondo, and other martial arts.

the story goes until jake makes friend with bobby (i made this character), fat, not smart, unpopular student in the school. someday, bobby, got bullied by ryan and the gang. jake can not take it. without permission from bobby, jake challange ryan to fight one on one bareknuckle fight. ryan accept, and later, jake's body covered by blood. yes, jake lose. knowing jake finished, bobby is angry, then he train secretly to martial art master, name frank, a bald, muscular, tattoed and full of anger man.

baja, the beautiful mexican-american girl feels so uncomfort with the ryan-jake relationship. ryan is her boyfriend, and baja admire jake, jake is quite good looking boy.

bobby has finished his training with frank, and planning to have a revenge with ryan. surprised by the challenge that asked by bobby, ryan cannot avoid but to accept the fight. then they fight, watched by baja and jake. bobby is the winner in this fight. but ryan cannot accept it. then he take out his gun from his car, and point the gun toward bobby, but jake sees it. jake pushes bobby and jake get shot by the bullet from the ryan's gun. jake is dead. ryan goes to prison, bobby moves to another city, baja continue her study then become actreess.

thank you very much.

best attacking team ? - valid but bad argument

go to the main topic. today, i would like to talk about football. my favorite sport. i read an article from www.goal.com , this article talk about AC Milan's forward player, Filippo Inzaghi, who claim that his team has the best attacker squad in the whole world. you can read the complete version of the article here.

this is his quote : “I think we are favourites for the Scudetto alongside Inter, Juve and Roma but we have the best attack, no-one has a striking department like ours."

actually, this team indeed has some top world players, lets say, they just sign a contract with Ronaldinho, who rewarded best football player by FIFA in 2004. however, if we see from the quote that stated by Filippo Inzaghi, he does not have a strong supporting argument that can support his statement. in this article actually Inzaghi mention about the comeback of Andriy Shevchenko, former Chelsea FC player whose the credibility is proven by his goals and performances.

lets see it in an easier form :
Ronaldinho and Andriy Shevchenko are two of the best player in the world who just signed a contract with AC Milan
A team who has best player in the world will win the competition
AC Milan will win the competition

it is a valid argument because the conclusion necessarily follow the premises. however, it is a bad valid argument, because the premises and the conclusion can be asked easily, like " are you sure they are the best player ?" etc. so the statement that is stated in the article is valid but bad argument.

good day
