I was thinking...

To be honest, I honestly feel Game of Thrones should replace Pendidikan Moral in school.
The series is full of moral lessons for everyone (the murders, gory and sexy scenes aside), with the most important lesson of them all:

DO NOT IGNORE ADVICE SOMEONE GIVES YOU (especially if in good faith).

And what are moral lessons without stories?

Example:

  • Catelyn: "Bran, don't climb that tower." - BOOM, we know what happened.
  • Catelyn: "Sansa, don't go crazy over Joffrey." - Yeap, and getting brand an idiot or useless for a good part of the show.
  • Catelyn: "Ned, don't go to King's Landing." - WE KNOW WHAT HAPPENED.
  • Catelyn: "Robb, you shouldn't trust Theon Greyjoy." - Yeap.
  • Catelyn: "Robb, don't marry that girl." - WHYYYYYYY!! (T^T )
  • Cersei: "Ned, watch out for my wrath." - Hmph.
  • Baelish: "Ned, don't trust me." - As above.
  • Tyrion: "Oberyn, you shouldn't drink before a fight." - ROARRRRRRRR.

SEE WHAT HAPPENED WHEN YOU DON'T HEED CERTAIN ADVICES?


Basically, this teaches you that if you ignore someone's advice, you're gonna have a bad time.

So if your Pendidikan Moral teacher teaches you to give your seat, when taking the bus/ train, to the elderly/ pregnant lady, you GIVE your seat to them... or George RR Martin will bloody kill you. That bastard.


That is all.

Of authors.

In my life, only two person has the ability to toy with my emotions every single time with the stories they had told.


In fact, I am still broken from the decision one of them made.

Those two, are JK Rowling (Oh hail Queen Rowling!) and George RR Martin.


Granted, I have yet to start reading A Song of Ice and Fire, but I'm an avid follower of the series.


But yes, I cannot even begin with those two!


They create characters you love with all your heart, and you follow those characters along on the journey - never mind that those characters weren't the lead - and they only appear every now and then, but your heart was with them.

And then the authors had to bloody kill them.

Fred Weasley's death still haunts me to this day. He was my favourite character, and I cannot get over why the Queen decides to kill him.

Second, having recently watched the latest episode of GOT, *SPOILERS AHEAD*... the death of Oberyn Martell!
I feel Pedro Pascal did a good job as Oberyn Martell, that you really root for him (and of course because Tyrion's life is at stake!)... and then when it happened...

WTF.


I read on Buzzfeed an article someone wrote, asking where on earth is Gendry Waters, and what happened to him.

Honestly I wondered that too.

But considering how well we all know George RR Martin... sometimes it is in the character's best interest to STAY THE HELL AWAY.


Yeap. You do that Gendry Waters.
STAY. AWAY.

My poor abandoned Blog!

WOW.

Can't believe it has been more than a year since my last published post!

I hope I'm back (at least for a while) now!! =D
