What are the potential effects of global warming in terms of climate change and how they can be arrested?
Global warming has always been an earth-shattering issue as it is being concerned by all nations throughout the world. Generally, global warming refers to the gradual increase in global average temperature with respect to the increase in concentration of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and methane in the atmosphere. By the end of the 21st century, global warming is likely to cause a rise in Earth's temperature of around 2-5 degrees centigrade. (Chris Woodford 2006) This worries scientists as it may invite higher degree of climate change to the earth and therefore, it may correspond to enormous consequences on our beloved environment. Thus, the potential impacts of global warming in terms of climate change should be taken fully into attention and responsible measurements need to be implemented to arrest this problem.
One of the significant effects of global warming is the tremendous rise in temperature at North and South poles. (Chris Woodford 2006) As a result, ocean is warmed up by the increasing global temperature. According to Holli Riebeek 2007, the world's glaciers have steadily receded, and Arctic sea ice extent has steadily shrunk by 2.7 percent per decade since 1978. The melting of ice caps and glaciers has brought to higher sea level. Currently, the world's sea level is rising at 3 centimeters per decade. (Chris Woodford 2006) Rising sea level will enhance coastal erosion and cause more frequent coastal floodings. This problem is serious because as much as 10 percent of the world population lives in coastal areas less than 10 meters above sea level. (Holli Riebeek 2007)
On the other hand, global warming is likely to cause more erratic weather patterns on the Earth. (Chris Woodford 2006) Warmer temperature will alter weather patterns, making it likely that there will be more intense droughts and rain events. It will also lead to frequent heat waves and natural disasters such as hurricanes, tornadoes, typhoons and storms. Residents of poorer countries who do not have sufficient resources to fend off changes in climate will be affected the most in terms of widespread infectious diseases such as malaria. (Holli Riebeek 2007) Besides, frequent cases of fires are likely to take place, which may lead to deaths and air pollution.
In addition, global warming is putting pressure on ecosystem. Warmer temperature shifted the growing seasons in many parts of the globe. (Holli Riebeek 2007) Nature’s plan is disturbed by global warming and millions of ecological creatures are going to be affected. Species that failed to adapt themselves under a hotter environment may end up facing the crisis of extinction. Also, shorter and milder winters will fail to kill some insects, thus increase the risk of damage to ecosystem by infestation.
To tackle this global crisis as to reduce the impacts of climate change, prompt actions should be taken to cut down the emission of greenhouse gases. People are encouraged to use efficient electricity appliances and end-use efficiency. At the same time, people are urged to practice passenger vehicle efficiency such as hybrid cars. Al Gore in his talk suggested the use of renewable technologies and carbon-capture-and-storage technologies to further address the problem. All nations should cooperate and work together as a powerful body to deal with this global crisis by forwarding the message of awareness to the whole world.
As a conclusion, global warming nowadays harms the Earth in terms of increase in temperature continuously, erratic weather patterns and pressure on ecosystem. With global energy and fossil-fuel use still increasing, major climate change seems almost unavoidable. However, according to An Inconvenient Truth A Global Warming, the 2007 film directed by Davis Guggenheim, records indicated that human do have the capacity to rise above themselves and above history with determination. Thus, everyone should have the strength to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases as much as possible and make this world a better place!

Free time
I have just finish acting. Well, it is needed for my Moral Studies project. We have to do a video about moral issue. Within a group a 5 people, finally we have decided to do a topic on BAD USAGE OF WORDS.
Michelle is the one who think of the topic. She create the story line, and we are just following. Thanks so much to Michelle upon her effort.
After lunch, we start to prepare. Everybody change their clothes as to fit the character well. There are two scenes in total where we take it in Aristotle Block. I was not include in scene 1 but the second one. I was asked to wear mini skirt or anything else that will make me look like really dress up so nicely. Well, I am going to be teased by others in the video because of my dressing.
Yin Sin took a picture of me^^
Why I look so happy a??? haha....
Anyhow, we managed to finish all the video clips we suppose to take it today. Such a good job. And currently, we are having some difficulties figuring out how to insert the subtitle into the video clips. Yin Sin said that she will try it out first, but it is time-consuming to insert the subtitle, and it is not easy to do it as the timing is difficult to control. Hope that we can really make it....add oil^^
I still have a Mathematics directed investtigation to go. It is progressing quite slow. Maybe we should make it faster (in group).....hopefully we can finish it before term break...hopefully....
What am I suppose to do now? Oh ya...Specialist Mathematics!!! Next week I will have a quiz on Chapter 6. So, I should make some revision now...bye~~~~
Good Morning^.^
There have been a long time I do not update my blog. I am lazy to write out something, but I will still try to post some words as much as i can.
This is a really good morning as I get enough sleep today. I have just wake up from my dreamland actually, and straightaway on my laptop after brushing my teeth.haha...
Wanna say....
Ohaiyo!!!
Is it means Good Morning in Japanese? I guess so...haha...=)
This weekend I am not going back to home. It is like long time already for me to not stay back at INTI hostel at weekend. I have works to complete this weekend and also next week (quiz and test). Today, it should be an enjoyful and funny day. Will it turn like the way i wish? I dont know. Perhaps...but me alone is too unpowerful to decide things that is going to happen next. We cannot predict things....
Happiness and to be rich in life is my goal. Last time Mr. Yee asked us about our goal in life, I was just wondering at that moment. A person's goal changes with time, and every single incident can change it. I am too weak, in other words, undetermined to continue moving towards my goal. I will try my best to make myself successful in life in term of reaching happiness in life and to be a rich lady. To be a rich lady does not mean to have lots of money, but to rich in the things in life that I want to achieve such as friendship, family, integrity and work.
It is still a long way to go. Gambateh^^ For me and everyone of you.
I am watching *A litre of Tears* recently, and it is still a very touching stories. Aya's determination and the way she treat her life is impressive. She is such a strong girl to be able to stand up in front of everyone, to be able to smile upon the unusual sights and words. It can be very irritating, but she never give up. She continue optimistically in her life as she believe herself that she can change her life if she strike hard for it, or at least she don't want to waste her life just like that, she want to do as much as she can whe she is still able to walk, speak and coordinate her body. She is great. We should look on her, and treat her as an example in life. Rememeber not to give up so easily. Life is given once, so let us appreciate it!
It is the time I have to say good bye. Bye bye for now, and think about my words. Wish you all a happy weekend^^

Feeling
I post two news during this afternoon. Before this, I was trying to figure out what am I supposed to do to fill up my time at home. Well, I have done something today, not bad.
I always feel like I cannot occupy my time usefully or meaningfully. Time passes very fast and at the end of the day, I think what I have done throughout the day... Sometimes it can be very disappointing when I found that I did nothing for the day!
Am I a pessimistic person? From what you all know about me, please tell me the answer! What kind of person is me? I am getting blurrer image of myself...
I am always pretending, as I always keep something deep in my heart. I dont share out my feelings through daily chating and I always take long time, lying on the bed, thinking, for almost hours, before I go to dreamland. I cannot sleep well at night...
Friends, tell me your views please!
Marks drop as kids fail fitness test
GETTING students to exercise more might not just address obesity issues, but also improve their grades.
A US study found physically fit students scored higher in tests than their less fit peers.
Test scores dropped more than one point for each extra minute it took middle and high school students to complete a 1600m run/walk fitness test, according to Dr William J McCarthy and colleagues at the University of California in Los Angeles.
For optimal brain function "it's good to be both aerobically fit and to have a healthy body shape", Dr McCarthy said.
Dr McCarthy's team compared physical fitness and body weight measures with scores on California's standardised maths, reading, and language tests among 749 fifth-graders, 761 seventh-graders, and 479 ninth-graders who attended schools between 2002 and 2003.

About half of the students were girls, 60 per cent were white, 26 per cent were of Hispanic ethnicity, and about 7 per cent each were African American and Asian/Pacific Islander.
Almost 32 per cent of the students were overweight and about 28 per cent were obese, the researchers reported in The Journal of Pediatrics.
The researchers estimated students' aerobic fitness according to their times on a flat track.
With a 15-minute maximum allowed time to complete the test, the boys averaged slightly less than 10 minutes, while the girls averaged a little less than 11 minutes.
Mr McCarthy's team found that nearly two-thirds of the students (65 per cent) fell below the state fitness standard for their age and gender.
Compared with these students, students who met or exceeded fitness standards had higher average test scores.
Allowing for age, social and economic status, gender, ethnicity, and body size did not significantly alter this association.
Compared with students of desirable weight, overweight and obese students also scored significantly lower on tests, the researchers found.
MY COMMENT:
Research found that fitness can ensure grade improvement.
From what everyone knew, fitness can bring health, but now fitness helps students to achieve higher score! Will it encourage more students to exercise more?
It is a healthy movement anyway, but the motivation is different now. People may think of encouraging their kids to exercise in order to place their children on a better grade. Education is now related to health.

Teenage girls cut unborn baby from Colombian mother's womb
From: NewsCore February 26, 2010 7:20AM Increase Text Size Decrease Text Size Print Email Share Add to Digg Add to del.icio.us Add to Facebook Add to Kwoff Add to Myspace Add to Newsvine What are these? Teens cut baby from mother's womb
Two months premature, but baby survives
Third person may have been present
TWO teenage girls snatched another teenager's unborn baby from her womb in a crude caesarean operation, Colombian newspaper El Tiempo reported.
The two unnamed girls, aged 14 and 16, assaulted Maria Amparo Rivera Girata, 18, in the small town of Duitama, northern Colombia, on Monday.
According to El Tiempo, the pair held a knife to Ms Girata's throat and tied her up, before cutting her uterus open and removing the infant. Ms Girata, who was seven months pregnant, was later found still conscious with severe abdomen injuries.
The two girls were arrested with the baby, who survived the ordeal, soon after.
The 16-year-old suspect reportedly miscarried during a previous pregnancy and plotted to steal Ms Girata's infant to replace her own, in order to stop her boyfriend finding out.
Ernesto Giraldo, head of Boyaca hospital's intensive care unit, told El Tiempo that it was possible a third person with knowledge of caesarean surgery was present.

"It's remarkable that these two girls could have conducted this surgery without injuring other organs close to the uterus," he said.
"All the more if you bear in mind that the victim was supposedly awake and struggling, trying to prevent them from removing her child."
Ms Girata was in a critical condition overnight in hospital and her two month premature baby boy is said to be recovering satisfactorily in an incubator.
My comment:
Unbelievable!
Teenagers nowadays do such thing!
Pity the victim. She is awake while the cruel surgery is being carried out by only two little girls!
Well, a third person may guide them throughout the process. How dare the teenagers are! What would be the society's reaction towards the two little girls? Unforgiveness? A second chance? They are still 14 and 16 years old...
Well, what cause this incident to happen?
I guess there is a lack of parental guidance and a lack of LOVE. Peer pressure leads to the problem as well. The only way the teenagers thought of is to get other's baby to replace hers. There are other ways to solve the problem faced, but may be they weren't dare to bring this topic to their parents, plus the pressure given by the guy, they end up making this mistake.
MISCARRY-is to give birth to a baby before it is fully developed and able to live. The girl lose her baby, thus she was struggle to get her baby back. She made a wrong decision, but what had contributed to her fault?!
What is your opinion?

Release
That is the word i can think of to decribe my feeling now. After going through the hardship, I feel more relax and release now~~~
NO more crying, no more hate... i know that I cant hate myself... i have to do my best tomorrow afterall...no matter what kind of result is awarded from my hardwork, I have put my best effort and that is enough for me. Because I have already do my part!!!^^
Dont worry guys, i know u love me and I love u all too... I will stay strong always and be a good girl. I am not so easily pushed down by pressure! I got the way to cope with it, and I laugh a lot just now, and all the pressure gone, at least for tonight, making me happier^^
I still got many challenges waiting for me, and I will strike them down and go through it. With your support, I believe I CAN DO IT!!!
I CAN DO IT!!!
Actually I face many ups and downs frequently, and I have no idea to cope with it...that's why I cant get back to myself. My friends said that I have changed a lot. Ya, I do agree with it. Without me notice, I changed and i am changing. Something good plus something bad, i do always wish that i can improve myself in terms of relationships, EQ and IQ. EQ is the most difficult task for me, for I lost control sometimes. It is really bad and it hurts many. To think before I act or before say out something that may hurt others is always my goal. BUt i am the kind of stupid because I hurt others always without me realise... sorry... it makes me guilty. And I am a coward person too...everything can be linked up to make me hate myself.
BUT
IMPOSSIBLE IS I-M-POSSIBLE
Everything is possible to change. There is always room for improvement. Just believe in ourselves and move towards our goals, so that satisfaction is achieved, people are happy.
Enough for today, bye^^ see u soon....

The last day at Inti's computer lab before CNY!!!
I am now sitting in front of computer in lab, posting my blog of course and playing around in facebook. I have already neglected my blog and facebook as well as msn for a very long time because I have too much tests, quizzes and assignments to do before CNy. Now, I get released because all of the tasks have been finished by yesterday. What a Great day I have passed through!!!
I celebrated Friend's birthday yesterday night together with a huge group of Inti's friends. We played around at the dining hall, and therefore we were scolded by Mr. Guard..haha...However, we did clean up the floor and clear off the stuff after the *game*. It was fun and enjoyable. But we stayed there for almost 3 hours!~ The reason behind was we were actually gambling last night. Hmn....illegal night o.O
I got some surprises on yesterday night too as I received some special present yesterday...but I was not allowed to open it until I get the instructions...too bad...I need to wait but it will increases my curiosity even more! hehe....but I will obey the rule, so I will not going to open it before I receive any instruction...see, I am a good follower...haha^^
Well, I am going back home today to celebrate CNY...Yeay!!!^^
I have already waiting for it for a long long time. It finally comes...haha...
Almost all my friends go back earlier than me >.< but nevermine...I will be back also wat...somebody told me that I need to be more independent...so, It is actually a good opportunity for me to learn up!
I havent pack up all my stuff; I will be doing it later but i am so so tired because I slept only 3 hours yesterday...tired...
Okaylah...I need to leave now...bye bye...see you^^

A SUGGESTION by Prime Minister Kevin Rudd that the legal drinking age be raised to 21 may not be workable, Queensland Premier Anna Bligh says.
Mr Rudd said last night that he would personally like to see the legal drinking age lifted to 21, after linking high rates of P-plater road deaths to alcohol consumption.
Ms Bligh said she recognised binge drinking was an increasing problem that put young people and others in harm's way and understood where Mr Rudd was coming from.
But she did not fully support the move.
"On this issue I probably fall on the side of the argument that says the horse may well have bolted," she said.
"And whether you can turn the clock back I think is a pretty difficult question.
"... I'm not sure that it's entirely workable."
She said she welcomed a discussion on the drinking age but said the issue went to what age a child became an adult.

Eighteen-year-olds could vote to change government, get married, have children, enter into legally-binding contracts and were treated as adults by the justice system, Ms Bligh said.
"We're really asking the question about when does a young person become an adult and the answer to that has a lot of repercussions way beyond the legal drinking age," Ms Bligh said.
She said most young Australians learned how to drink responsibly very quickly, although some did not.
Ms Bligh said she expected some discussion on the topic at upcoming Council of Australian Governments (COAG) meetings as any move to change the drinking age would need to be a national one.
My comments:
I think setting a limit over a drinking age may not work in the way government wish to see. It plays around human's control on whether they can control themselves to not overconsume alcohol. It depends largely on people's responsiveness and maturity. Once people undestand that how serious the negative impacts that alcohol can bring in, they will stop or drink responsibly. So, it varies in every country because people in different country reach maturity in different age level. Anyway, consuming of alcohol really leads to many negative outcomes, so teenagers should not simply try it under curiosity. Society need to be more alert!

Chinese New Year!!!
I am having quiz and test this week. However, I am going back home two more days later^^ Yay^^ I am so happy to have that day, where everybody is so excited and happy because we will have done all the quizzes and tests by that day. It is going to be such a wonderful Thursday, I guess. Instead, it is not Thursday we enjoy the most, but probably Wednesday, after we complete our Economic's test by 7.20pm.
Anyhow, I have just finish my Accounting's quiz paper in class now. Hmn....It got me a lttle confused and nervous because the question asked were confusing me. Hey, I hate the question! But, the quiz had past. No point for me to continually blame on the paper...[sorry ya miss natasya]....hehe
I managed to get my balance sheet balanced up, so it is still alright. But I was not too sure that whether my answer is correct or not because many of my friends got different answer from mine...anyway, I have try my best...hope that I wouldn't get too low marks...haha^^
Oh ya...talking back about Chinese New Year...On Wednesday itself, we plan to have a gambling night with friends. It is going to be an exciting and interesting night!!! Yeah!!! Although we will be having 8am class on the next morning, nobody is going to care for it....hehe...so bad right? It is the last night at Inti before everybody going back ma, so we have to enjoy to the fullest!!!^^
I bought quite a number of new clothes this year at SungeiWangPlaza. I went with my friends last Friday, starightaway after class at 12pm. I got a pair of new shoe as well; it is Rom style...cool... O.O
Counting back, I spent quite a number of money on shopping too...oo...But I like all the new clothes that I have, so...it doesn't matter. What I can say about my new clothes is that it is a totally new style for me this year...hehe...I will show it to you if there is a chance^^
Alright, that's all for today la so far. I still got Eco' test tomorrow, so I got to pick up my books to study now....tired+sleepy....but I have to go through it anyway...bye bye...see you later in the next post^^ hopefully I can have it come as soon as possible^^

Evelynn^^
She is being baby-sitted by my mom now. My parent went to dinner tonight; my sister attends a party tonight; my brother went to work already and the two other brothers dont know go where...haha...probably they went to my uncle's house to play with other kids. So.....
Left only me and Evelynn tonight at home!!!
HAHAHAHA........
I will not buly her, don't worry^^
But she will buly me instead! haha
After getting some homeworks done such as washing clothes, cleaning plates, *bakar-ing colok* or praying, and many more, I get my time to look after the small little girl. I feed her some milks, and clean her up. She is dirty, so I would make sure that she get clean and *wangi* under my special treatment!!! haha...
I have been so tired doing all these kind of things. It is quite enjoyful sometimes when you go through all these works. When I play with baby, she makes me laugh a lot. When I finish the works at home, I felt satisfied. It makes me feel happy too. ^.^
I took some pictures with her just now by using webcam. Let me show you our happy time^^
She is cute right?
Her mom promised to fetch her up tonight at around 9.30pm. But she have not appeared yet now....everytime we have to wait for a long time >.<
This cutie is pretty naughty just now. She keep on crying to get my attention back to her because I was msn-ing with friends now! haha^^
Okay...that's all for tonight...I am getting tired with evelynn.....
*changes in my home*
As soon as I reached home, I detect some changes in my home. I would like to talk about my family members first^^
My mom's hair grows longer now. She said she will be cutting it short tomorrow. Or perhaps later because we are going to go out shopping later. *I am actually grabbing the limited free time to update my blog, not to say so, but to express my feeling instead. haha =)
The little naughty girl at home grows taller now. Longer hair-I saw it, making me not too familiar with it. But the thing that made me happy was she still recognised me even though we have not met for two weeks. Yay^^ She looked happy to play with me, so am I!!!
My younger sister changed her view towards her classmate completely and she looked happy and enjoyful. That was great!!! Last two weeks, she complaint to me a lot about her disturbing, noisy, naughty and silly classmates. I could see in her eyes that she dislike the class pretty much, but things have improved this week. Hmn....maybe she was just not familiar with the new environment in the past. *She cry sadly last two weeks when she complaint to me*...I am glad to see this kind of changes^^.
Talking about my first younger brother, who is an emotional guy, surprised me today when I was told that he will be going to work in the afternoon later. Wow....at last he managed to try a different work outside! That sound good! He usually work only in my aunt's furniture shop, but now he step out to try a new thing. Hope that he can learn new thing outside, so that he can improve his bad attitude that I sometimes dislike it pretty much. haha....no offence =]
My other two younger brothers do not seemed to change too much, but still naughty in nature. I like their funny character actually.... My second younger brother is sick and feeling not very well. Hope that he can recover soon.
My father on the other hand, is still like that...no changes...haha....he always get himself busy with work and social meetings. Tonight my dad and mom are going to have a dinner at Pandamaran at Klang. My sister, well, is going to attend her friend's party. So, I will have to take care of my "little baby" at home, hope that I can mix well with her. Hope that she wont cry alot, but laugh often la. This will probably makes my job easier. Haha^^
Everybody is preparing for new year. My aunts and my relatives are getting themselves very busy. I still not yet shop for my CNY clothes and shoes. Why why why?????? Nevermine, it is the new attitude and new life that count. Be happy is the most important thing^^
I feel hot at home because there is no air conditioner >.< I am going to library nearby later to get myself a little bit cool down. haha....I need to start my works now, so bye bye~~~~ muacksss =)

Mother's vow: Carly's death won't be in vain
I won't let Carly's death be in vain

Article from: The Advertiser
CARLY Ryan's mother has refused to surrender to despair, vowing to dedicate her life to saving others from the fate that befell her murdered daughter.
Speaking for the first time since the teenager's killer was convicted, Sonya Ryan said urgent action, such as compulsory seminars for Year 8 students, was needed to educate children about internet dangers.
Ms Ryan, 38, also threw her support behind new federal laws, proposed by independent senator Nick Xenophon, that would make lying to children on the internet a crime.
Yesterday, Ms Ryan told The Advertiser her focus "had to be" on the future, not the past.
"A future without Carly is just too terrifying to imagine, like someone switched off the light that she brought into our lives," she said. "You can either fall into that blackness and completely give up or you step into the light and do what you can - and that's trying to help others.
"What else is there? It's pretty much the only choice I have. If I have to be here without Carly, then my aim is to help create awareness."
On January 21, Ms Ryan sat in the back row of the Supreme Court and watched as a jury found a Victorian man guilty of murdering her 15-year-old daughter.
It was the first time she had seen the 50-year-old since she kicked him out of her home three years earlier.
At that time, she had believed the man's name was Shane and that he was the adopted father of Miss Ryan's internet boyfriend, Brandon Kane.
In truth, both "Brandon" and "Shane" were personas the man had adopted to seduce Miss Ryan into a sexual relationship.
Ms Ryan ordered "Shane" to leave her home after finding him sleeping in the same bed as her daughter.
Weeks later, the man would use his cyberspace alter ego to convince Miss Ryan to go with him to Port Elliot, where he bashed and drowned her.
"Carly would be utterly horrified to know the level of deception of that man," Ms Ryan said yesterday.
"A lot of people believe whatever they read on the internet is true, especially children . . . they believe what they see, but there is just so much deception out there and on so many levels.
"All it takes is for a trusting teen to believe what a predator is saying to them and their safety is instantly taken out of their hands.
"Carly was a very compassionate young lady and she would be wanting all of us to do whatever we can to stop this happening again in the future to another young girl."
Ms Ryan said parents had to educate themselves about the internet.
"I think that parents are unaware of what their children are doing online," she said. "They need to be more actively involved and checking their children's websites, looking at the mediums they are using, checking their profiles and who they are speaking to."
Teachers and governments, she said, had to work together to warn children about online predators. "Kids put whatever they like on their MySpace and Facebook pages - their schools, their telephone numbers, their movements - just completely unaware that anybody can look at that information," she said.
"The internet is getting bigger and bigger, and this problem is only going to get worse - something needs to be actively done and people need to start taking this seriously.
"I think there should be compulsory school seminars on internet awareness and safety for Year 8 students."
Ms Ryan said she would create a foundation, in her daughter's name, to further internet awareness and child safety. She called on the public to contact her with suggestions and initiatives.
"There has been enough suffering over the past three years," she said. "Not just for me but for Carly's family, her friends, the lady who found her on the beach, the police and the prosecutors.
"Now, the best thing I can do is get out there and try to help others prevent this happening in the future.
"I just try to always think `What would Carly want me to do?' and I know, in my heart of hearts, that is getting this message out . . ."

Super enjoyful day^^
I am so happy and enjoy throughout the day, minus the study part. I take only a while to study; I am enjoying the rest^^
Well, what have I done today???
A simple answer would be *play*...
After class, at around 2.00 pm, I went to Network printing area to get some of the articles printed out, then I walked to dining hall for lunch with friends. While we were chating, some of them were joking as well. Sharing funny moments together with friends at a lovely afternoon is great! Isn't it?
Approximately at about 4.30 pm, we played badminton. Actually it should be started at 4.00 pm, but we girls are late. Pity Lawrence to wait for us for almost half an hour alnoe in MPH....sorry....
We enjoy the game pretty well, at least for me. I played a lot, and I got myself sweat up. I felt hot, while I was sweating. We played so many rounds together, and I really enjoying it!!! What a nice evening we have spent.
Of course the story did not end here. After the game, we walked to a Korean restaurant nearby *can be considered as a long distance*. The food was tasty and delicious, for me. It was such a nice dinner! We have five people there, so we ordered a big bowl of sour+spicy+sweet soup and a big pancake. In the case of the pancake, the particular lady who served us said that the flour used to make the pancake is imported from Korea. Well, the pancake is just suit my taste. I like the soup pretty much. If we are having the soup on a cold cold day, it maybe taste even nicer^^
One thing I like the most about the restaurant is the service they provide. The lady, who I believe to be a Korean, always has a wonderful smile on her face =)...She has a soft voice and she talk very politely and friendly. She know Mandarin as well, and she taught us some words in Korean, like *thank you-kamsahamida*....is it correct? not too sure...haha^^
A wonderful day, that's what I can describe for the day~
Tomorrow I will be having my Mathematics class. This reminds me about the day where Miss Saras asked us to describe in one word for all our classmates. After a week, she gave us back the result!
And guess I got what?
It is funny and interesting....
Let me divide it into two parts...
The first part that my classmates used to describe me were....
*Careful*, *Serious*, *Formal*, *Elegant*, *Practical*,....
Is this really the case? Well, I don't think I am a careful girl, but a careless girl instead. haha^^...Serious??? Hmn....sometimes I can be quite serious, when I am concentrating on something, but it shouldn't be my characteristic, because I dont like it....I like funny things^^
I have no idea on who was describing me as elegant and practical. I think I do not deserve the characteristic as ELEGANT...haha^^ and practical....maybe yes....haha^^
The other part, make more sense...haha...
I got them describe me as friendly, shy, pretty, quiet, sweet, polite and charming, which I think quite true in this case...haha...agree? anyway, thanks for their comments about me^^
Just now I went outside to have supper with *neighbours* in hostel. I realised that I ate quite a lot today. Cheese bread and a cup of milo as my breakfast this morning, fried rice for my lunch, a large bowl of soup and pancake as my dinner, and finally a chicken burger for my supper!!! I was getting more calories!!! I have to control myself. I found that my appetite becomes better since I came back to Inti. Why??? maybe because I am getting happier these few weeks^^
It is time for me to say bye bye because it is really late now-12.45pm. I do better go to sleep now, if not tomorrow there will be a panda appear in Inti!!! haha...just kidding...
Good night...muacksss =]

Everything is too late...
Life is sad sometimes when we do something wrong. Remember the lessons of juggling five balls? Friends, family, health, integrity and work...Four of them are glass balls; it reminds us to handle it carefully, not to break them...because eveything will be too late for us to recover it back once we break it! Although we managed to stick the pieces back, the crack is always there. It will be too late to apologise then...
Yesterday I was pretty down. I was too insensitive, being not considerable at all. Therefore I hurt somebody, broke someone's hope. I was too bad! Stupid, self-fish and childish...Everything was too late when I tried to recover back the initial situation. Regretness makes no sense at all. I put other in bad mood, but I dont mean to do that! I dont mean to break others hope...really...
But luckily everything seemed to be not too bad this morning. She did not blame me, but I could not stop to blame myself...it is okay then if she really dint blame me...thank... I received mr.yee's message just now...ask me to pick up my quiz paper at his paper...so happy because he messages me...haha....i got to go now...bye~~

A surprise and sad news...
I was back in Inti hostel today at around 5.30pm. My friend at the next door called me while I was mopping the floor. She gave me a shock by saying that one of our friends' only younger brother passed away today! It occured in this morning, at around 10 am something. The news have been posted in The Star newspaper. It happened in Georgetown...
Jason Ching-my friend's brother was found dead when he was training for a dragon boat race on this morning. According to my friend, he is 17 years old this year, and he stayed active in school cocuriculum activities. He is the president of Leo Club in his school.
It is believed that strong currents pulled the students into the water. Twelve of the students managed to swim to the shore, but not Jason Ching unfortunately. He did not know how to swim whereas the other did. There were still a number of four students missing. Their dragon boat team advisor had also found to be dead. So sad...
Life can't be predicted anyway...it ends just like that sometimes, without you having the chance to prevent it or at least to get ready...
But life must go on anyhow...be strong my friend! Get on your track and get your feet on life again! Don't give up....

An enjoyful and happy week^^
It was a happy and enjoyful week. It was not like previous week that I have spent in INTI. Everything was leading me to a happy path in this week^^ I played a lot but studied only a little. Feeling some guilty in my heart, but I still have the kind of enjoyful mood with me, not willing to change my mood into study mood.
I spent this weekend with my family as almost every friends leaved hostel. Of course I didn't want to be alone, so I went back too. I dislike the feeling of being alone in a small room. In other words, I am afraid to be lonely. I used to sleep together with my sister at home since I was small, that's why I can't stay alone...On Friday, many of them went back after class at about 12 o'clock. But, I have to wait until evening for my dad to fetch me home. I thought I will be alone in the room, but luckily there was still one of them who stayed with me until 3pm. We looked on some of his photos, watched video clip and movie and chit-chated in common room. But time passed very fast, I got to go back to my room after that because he needed to leave already at that time.
Staying alone in the room, I did nothing except online-ing and listening to musics. It was so quiet in the room, so I turned the musics as loud as possible...haha...and I got myself a little bit busy to forget the lonely feeling. I replied some comments on my blog, swept the floor, and packing my belongings after I recieved a call from daddy. Although I have story book and homework with me, but I did not feel like doing it. I couldn't sleep also....luckily my dad came to fetch me at around 5pm; luckily I did not wait for a long time^^
I went shopping with my mom and sister just now. We went to buy some new clothes for the coming Chinese New Year. I was so happy this morning when my sister told me that we were going to shop at afternoon! Last night, I tried to ask my friend out to shop but she could not make it because she was busy as her mom was not around. But we did make a deal. If I can go back home on 30th January, then we can go out together to shopping spree! Hopefully everything goes smoothly on that day. Please...no exam that week....
I bought a new piece of shirt just now when I went shopping. It is a very nice blouse, and I like it pretty much. It makes me cheer up until now....haha^^ But it is not enough. I still want to buy shoe, long pant, short pant, and probably some more dress, skirt or shirts....haha...a lot right? Oh ya! I am lack of a handbag...hopefully I will get one when I shop with my friend at 30th January...hopefully hopefully....
Last Saturday night, I got a surprise. Shhhh....it is a secret...haha....I would like to say that it was a special night^^ Then, I went out to have supper with a group of friends. We ran to a few shops, but every shop was fulled. Fortunately, we managed to get one place. There was a lot of people there also...and we wondered...why was it so many people hang out that night? Guess what, eveyone was waiting for the football match!!! Everyone got so excited while watching the match, including us. Wait, I got the photo...
Look! The guys couldn't keep their mouth shut...haha =D
Besides, Wednesday belong to my roommate birthday. We celebrated together with her at basketball court downstairs. We bought her a chocholate cake and we sang birthday sont to her. She said that I looked more happy than her that night...haha...is it??? Some of my friends did some funny posts and actions, making us laugh all the time^^ My roommate was "kena" by the cake; her face turned chocholate...haha...it was not me to that kind of thing, but my neighour at hostel, "ah ma"....haha....but my roommate took revenge on me leh...she made my face a little chocholate too >.< ...but not only me kena wor...many of them also...haha =D
Everyone looked so happy in the photo^^ The girl at the front is my roommate, mayuree. Happy birthday, Yury^^
Of course we, sisters of Yury must take a photo with her...it was a really nice and sweet memory^^
After we went back to our rooms, I wish her happy birthday again. She watched her favourite drama for a while, and we chat after that until we fell asleep...
One more thing, we played basketball this week. It was very fun and enjoyful!!!! We played for two hours continuosly at night, and we got the whole body wet of sweats...so exciting, felt so good...Basketball!!! I miss it so much!!!!
On Thursday, we went to Timesquare as we did not have class that day. It was a public holiday at Negeri Sembilan. We took KTM to KL Sentral, and monorail to Timesquare! I have my lunch there, a big Zinger set at KFC. I have a large burger, and I din't think that I could finish it at last...Being so fulled after lunch, my friends went for a little walk before playing in Theme Park. But I did not play in Theme Park; I went to Pavilion to watch 3D movie-Avatar with other. The movie was impressive, so beautiful...wow...you should watch it if you have not done so! Don't miss the movie, really! Such a great one!
I went to quite a lot of shopping sprees that day, including Timesquare, Pavilion, Lot 10, SungeiWangPlaza and Low Yat...But I just walked through some of it only...I took a ride on monorail for the first time that day, and went through all the shopping sprees there for first time also...But I became tired on the way back to hostel. It took us for about two and a half hour to reach Inti. I did sleep for a while on the KTM, lying on somebody's shoulder, and my friends took picture of it. I did not know about that >.<" ....
I have gone through a meaningful and happy week together with my friends. How about you all?

Time to Relax~~
Hi^^ This week I am quite free all the time, but I did not update my blog frequently like last time because I am becoming lazy now T.T but nevermine, I still take good care of my blog....haha...
I have a story book on my hand now, of course I still have not finish reading it yet, but I found something interesting inside, so I would just like to share with you since I am boring now also...haha....
It goes like this.
Imagine life is a game in which you are juggling five balls. The balls are called work, family, health, friends, and integrity. And you are keeping all of them in the air. But one day you finally come to understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. The other four balls-family, health, friends, integrity- are made of glass. If you drop one of these, it will be irrevocably scuffed, nicked, perhaps even shattered. And once you truly understand the lesson of the five balls, you will have the beginnings of balance in your life.
It is very meaningful, but I cannot really understand it, since I never experience the lesson. Hope that you would like it, and probably leave some comments here about what you think about the word. You are always welcomed to do so, so that we can exchange our opinions^^
I am listening to some musics now. I like Westlife's songs. Their songs were really good!!! Some of these would be *Swear it again*, *Nothing's gonna change my love for you*, *I lay my love on you*, *Seasons in the sun*, *More than words*, and so on so on.......If you also like their songs, check it out and play it now....it is really nice....I couldn't stop myself from listening to their musics...haha^^
