Hi!
Notice that it is already 25th of August and according to my calculation, you only have less than a week to complete the 5 posts. The first topic that I would like you to share with your classmates is anything related to your interest, as long as it does not touch on any sensitive issue. Secondly, I would like you to also post your comments on 'Literature and its Importance'. While you are writing on it, perhaps you could do a bit of flashback of your secondary schools and texts used for literature classes. Remember to post on the topic generally and include your personal experience in literature classes.

Greeting Miss Aisyah, this will be the first time i wrote you a comment. So, before I begin, I would like you to know that I am so obssessed with history. So my story that I would like to share is of course related to history as well. This time I would like to share with everyone about the "Unforgiven History of the World" which is about "First World War"
World War I, also known as the First World War, the Great War, and the War to End All Wars, was a global military conflict that embroiled most of the world's great powers, assembled in two opposing alliances which is the Triple Entente and the Triple Alliance. More than 70 million military personnel were mobilized in one of the largest wars in history. The main combatants descended into a state of total war, pumping their entire scientific and industrial capabilities into the war effort. More than 15 million people were killed, making it one of the deadliest conflicts in history.
The immediate or proximate cause of war was the assassination on 28 June 1914 of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria, heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne, by Gavrilo Princip, a Serbian nationalist. Austria–Hungary's resulting demands against the Kingdom of Serbia activated a sequence of alliances. Within weeks the major European powers were at war, their global empires meant that the conflict soon spread worldwide.
By the war's end, four major imperial powers (the German, Russian, Austro-Hungarian and Ottoman Empires) had been militarily and politically defeated, with the last two ceasing to exist as autonomous entities. The revolutionized Soviet Union emerged from the Russian Empire, while the map of central Europe was completely redrawn into numerous smaller states. The League of Nations was formed in the hope of preventing another such conflict. The European nationalism spawned by the war, the repercussions of Germany's defeat, and the Treaty of Versailles would eventually lead to the beginning of World War II in 1939.
So thats all for now, there will some of you would like to know about the second world war, however, I will share this next story in the other comment because i need to read it first. Have a nice day yooo...

...LOVE...
ASSALAMMUALAIKUM AND GOOD EVENING TO YOU..
Today I want to you all about LOVE.I'm sure that everyone has their experience about love right?It is an obvious fact that we can learn and know what true love is. What we are often not aware of though, is that there are different love trends. Does it even matter if we understand love trends? If we are in a happy relationship, then that means it is all fine, right? Yes and No. Although, your love with your partner might run smoothly for a while, it can take a turn we often never expect. This is why knowing about love trends is helpful.
What may have turned you or your partner on at first, might not be a turn on later. How is this possible if they seemed so crazy over certain things before? The reason is quite simple and reasonable. When we first get involved with people, the attraction and lust is so strong (not that it would not be later), that the way one seduces the other is not truly focused on, but simply instantly appreciated, since they are so drawn to one another.
As the relationship proceeds and the bond builds, you will start getting in touch with your own style of loving and expecting your partner to match up to it. At times, this will be just the case. Couples can share the same love trend, but at other times, they can differ. If your trends do differ, do not look at it as negative, but as a way to combine them and form a creative love trend together. It should not be one way or the other. There is no such thing as the wrong way to love, except for obsession, controlling and abuse, of course-which is not love anyway, although some feel it is.

Assalamualaikum and good affternoon..
I want to share about benefit fasting.
It is interesting to note that while fasting has only been seen as religious ritual, scientific studies have also provided assurance of the benefit of fasting that depriving yourself from food will actually help the body.
Aesculapius of ancient Greece once said, “Instead of using medicine, fast”. Christ was said to have fasted for 40 days in meditation while Moslems all over the world are required to fast for 30 days each year during the holy month of Ramadan. We have been advised that when we are sick, it is best to eat so that we’ll be able to keep up the strength. Actually, nothing is further than the truth. If a sick person actually fast, more energy will be available to help combat sickness because the body is relieved from the labor of digesting foods.
The energy required for digesting food is so great, we have been advised to avoid swimming after eating or else we'll have cramps in the water. Another example is during festivals like Thanksgiving where people eat like there's no tomorrow. After a huge amount of food, do you feel energized or tired? If you eat heavily before sleep you will also wake up feeling tired. The reason is simple. Digesting food requires tremendous energy.

Dear Miss, have you heard that a vaccine to fight H1N1 disease are now ready and its on "sale" in this month and the public can go to the closest clinic or hospital to take the shots and it still is a free treatment.
However I dont think that this is a good news, why?
Simple,the vaccine are already to late to be use because from my sight of view it looks like the disease have already getting slow in its progress since there are no more death and no more news about new victims from the public media. Well I know that te government have try their best approach to slow down the spread of that sickness however all I know that there are somethings that we cant control and consequences are always there.
Still, I want to thank all the scientist that already give their full cooperation and their best to produce the vaccine and dare enought to have their time taken away just to save human life, for that I greatfully pray that they will be bless by the god.
Well that all for my posting about the public in Malaysia.Thanks for listening.

assalamualaikum and a very good evening to miss hanum.
today i want to tell you about a interesting story that i have read a long time ago..the story is about potato people..
This story took place in Ireland. The novel illustrates the suffering of the Irish people during that time due to the poor harvest of potatoes and long dry season. The main character Patrick an Irish boy who suffer through that period as an orphan. The struggle to survive from starvation because of potatoes disease known as “potato blight” further worsen by colonialisation of the English landlord from England. Patrick and his people were driven out of their land led by the henchmen of Lord Egham known as Mr. Graystone.
Sean is the man that gives Patrick the encouragement and motivation to search for freedom in faraway land – America.
The novel further explains the difficulties, hurdles and suffering of Patrick in achieving the dream for freedom.
Toward the ending chapters of this novel another character in the form of Marie, a gypsy girl which further compliment the struggle of Patrick by giving the best of friendship, encouragement and braveness in pursuing together for freedom.
Finally, both of them managed to achieve their freedom and dream for paradise by migrating to America.
But my father said there are more issues to that even until today why the Irish people cannot see eye to eye with english dog of England. How much the Irish hate the english people not only with regards to their ethnicity by the difference in faith, Irish people are normally “protestant” and the english are mostly “catholic”. Though all are christian faggot but they are at each other throat. This reminds him about history subject during my father schooling days, about the Pilgrim Fathers, the mass exodus of Irishmen and women to America.
The english are the same dogs that colonized our country.

HELLO all! I want to share the meaning of friendship for me.I think friendships are the gift to the man kind. The relation which we get in this world are blood related. But the only relationships which doesnot related to blood is friendship. Friendship has many forms and shapes. It is like water. If we pour the water into a jug it takes the shape of jug. if you pour the same water into a bowl it takes the shape o bowl. Sameway friendships will take a different shapes and sizes according to our heart. Friendship gives pleasure to human beings. Where there is friendship then there will not be any sorrow.
When you see a child laughing you will forget your sorrows for a second, sameway when you are with a friend you forget your sorrows.The world is rotating smoothly because of the friendly hearts in the world. it crosses boundries and share a mutual bonding of love. Friendships will take care of this entire world from problems. If we are friends then our countries will, when our countries are friends then there is not need of weapons. So take weapon named friendship and love and conqure the world with love.
Trusted true friendships never makes others down. it helps a lot to make friends to comeup from the situation. Friendships never expect anything in return for all its offering. It saves life without looking into situation.
Friends comes with friendships, They are the channel of love and affection. Friends are like child's heart which doesn't know wrong thinkings. When there is a friend with us we feel secure, happy, huge support, and comfortable which you can't get from others.
Friendship brings light into our world for it gives us the missing link to our soul. It provides a passageway from one heart to another and allows the transference of peace and solitude. Friendship gives and receives all that our innermost spirit desires for within friendship we will discover the Creator’s love.

Hello and greetings to you Miss Aisyah, as I told before, I will continue my next story about the most unforgettable history which is about World War 2.
After some reserch that I had done, this is some of the conclusion about how, where and which countries were involve in this great war.
World War II, or the Second World War ,was a global military conflict which involved a majority of the world's nations, including all of the great powers, organized into two opposing military alliances (the Allies and the Axis). The war involved the mobilization of over 100 million military personnel, making it the most widespread war in history. In a state of "total war", the major participants placed their entire economic, industrial, and scientific capabilities at the service of the war effort, erasing the distinction between civilian and military resources. Over seventy million people, the majority of whom were civilians, were killed, making it the deadliest conflict in human history.
The start of the war is generally held to be September 1, 1939, with the German invasion of Poland and subsequent declarations of war on Germany by most of the countries in the British Empire and Commonwealth, and by France. Many countries were already at war before this date, such as Nationalist China and Japan in the Second Sino-Japanese War, and many who were not initially involved joined the war later, as a result of events such as the German invasion of the Soviet Union (Operation Barbarossa), and the attacks on Pearl Harbor and British and Dutch colonies in Southeast Asia.
In 1945 the war ended in a victory for the Allies. The Soviet Union and the United States subsequently emerged as the world's superpowers, setting the stage for the Cold War, which lasted for the next 45 years. The United Nations was formed in the hope of preventing another such conflict. The acceptance of the principle of self-determination accelerated decolonization movements in Asia and Africa, while Western Europe itself began moving toward integration.
This are the conclusion tha I can made. In my opinion, as you can see, during this dark age, all countries's leader around the world try to rule the world by destroying their foes but sadly there are over seventy million people, the majority of whom were civilians, were killed.
Lets us try to think, how about if this history will happen again? Did we prepared to fight for our survival? Lets think of it carefully.....Bye then..
Assalamualaikum and good evening,
There’s an article that caught my attention, the title was Microsoft Word: Banned in US. For me the title alone is shocking as many of us use Microsoft product on daily basis and its one of the most software use for Windows user. After reading the short article I found out that there’s a dispute between Microsoft and a company called i4i. This company claimed that Microsoft word has use a patented process in handling XML format files in word.
Now what really make this article interesting for me to share with my entire classmate is that the important of documentation and the power of copyright. First is to be sure not to copy any source in the internet blindly, as some information have copyright and you have to at least give credit to the people that have created it. Second is to document your work accordingly, for this company copyright has become their savior as not only that they get justice that they deserve in court but also some compensation of the hard work that they have worked.

School Gifts
It was at the end of the school year, and a kindergarten teacher was receiving gifts from her pupils.
The florist's son handed her a gift. She shook it, held it overhead, and said, "I bet I know what it is. Some flowers." "
That's right" the boy said, "but how did you know?"
"Oh, just a wild guess," she said.
The next pupil was the candy shop owner's daughter.
The teacher held her gift overhead, shook it, and said, "I bet I can guess what it is. A box of sweets."
"That's right, but how did you know?" asked the girl.
"Oh, just a wild guess," said the teacher.
The next gift was from the son of the liquor store owner. The teacher held the package overhead, but it was leaking. She touched a drop of the leakage with her finger and touched it to her tongue.
"Is it wine?" she asked.
"No," the boy replied, with some excitement.
The teacher repeated the process, taking a larger drop of the leakage to her tongue.
"Is it champagne?" she asked.
"No," the boy replied, with more excitement.
The teacher took one more taste before declaring, "I give up, what is it?"
With great glee, the boy replied, "It's a puppy!"
THE END...
Thank you for spending your time to view my comment...Happy...Happy..to you...^^

Assalamualaikum and good afternoon Miss Hanum and my fellow friends.
That is the first posting from me. I will share my interest about air brushing. Air brushing is the one of photography technique. Do you know what is air brushing? Air brushing refers to the photographic editing technique in which an image is retouched and smoothed over to improve picture quality. While air brushing has been done long before the advent of digital photography, digital imaging and editing programs, such as Adobe Photoshop, have made the use of air brushing much easier and more accessible to amateur photographers. Although air brushing may be used in a various types of photography, it is most commonly employed in glamour photography, wedding photography and portraiture. For example, when a photographer wants to brush out the imperfections of a model’s face, he will air brush the image to make it appear smoother. So it will look nicer. Do you interested to make air brushing…

Good day everyone,
I'm Nurul Ain Ahmed, CD09045 would like to comment on the topic 'Literature and its Important'.What are the purpose, intent, and importance of literature? If its subjective, how is something art or not?All this playing around in my heads.Actually, i hate this subject in my secondary school and almost already forgot about what i have learnt hehe..Telling about my experience in school,I have a major revision on literature but still I'm having trouble. I know literature is important and it effects basically everything, but I'm having trouble putting it into the right words,especially in exam.
However, cause of the big part of ourself also related to arts & humanities.That's why literature are teach to us. For me,it teach us proper grammar and speaking skills,teach us morals,also teach us history & culture.It is all about life itself.Literature, if you think about it, really captures the ideas of the current generation of authors.Literature is a blessing for this very important reason.
P/S:regrating my past mistake...

Dear miss,Hanum.
Do you love anime?
I dont know about this but teenagers nowadays especially they who study in local universities tend to spend some of their time watching anime or reading manga from the internet.Well i think thats enough for a magnificent introduction.(laughing)
Right now. Im going to start the main part of my posting that is I want to share an anime that I already watched and I found it as the best anime among the collection that I kept.
The anime title is"Clannad" and it comes in two season and a season consist around twenty episodes to twenty four episodes.
Basically the anime is about how love can be found and how love itself can bloom between teenagers without been realised and when they open their eyes, they already have a life as husband and wife and as a parent.
What interest me the most about this anime is on how life can be so difficult and the impact of those difficulties to a normal human feelings and thoughts.
In this anime, the main idea that we must understand is that people have their own option wheather we want to choose or not and each time we choose, different progress will happen. However for me, the reason that I love this anime so much is because of the relationship that been created by the characters as a father , a mother ,a friend and the most as a big family.
Dear miss Hanum,
If you interested to watch this anime doesnt matter what are the reasons just tell Iqbal our Senior in C12 about it.I really recommend you to watch this anime bacause I can describe much how do I feel about this anime.Thats all for now.Thanks again.

Good evening to all my classmate and our new lecturer Miss Aisyah Hanum .
Today, I would like to share a interesting topic that I have read this morning which is colors that can show our personality.
Researches have shown that there is a clear relation between colors and driving core motives.The choices of people are funny. Some always wear white dresses. Others wear blue shirt with fancy designs on it. Youngsters wear dress with weird colors. There are some choice in colors in which a person select. Research shows that there is a one to one relation with color and personality of the person.
Isn’t interesting to know what type of personality you have just by identifying the most frequent color you use. Otherwise, what is the color you choose to modify your personality? Now Hartman color code is used widely to identify the true personality in you.
As a preliminary step, identify the colors, which you like most. Check all your dresses in wardrobe, personal belongings to identify it. It can be grouped under any of these four colors - Red, Blue, White and Yellow. These 4 colors have driving core motives in it.
RED: The motive behind it is Power. These people are power wielders. They motivate people, and are agile and responsive. They are proactive and assertive.
BLUE: The motive behind it is INTIMACY. They are intimacy-loving people. They create quality relationships. They bring gifts of clarity and tolerance. They are loyal, sincere and thoughtful.
WHITE: The motive behind it is PEACE. They are peacekeepers or likes absence of conflict. They are generally kind, adaptable and good listeners.
YELLOW: The motive behind it is FUN. These are fun lovers. They enjoy what they are doing. They bring greater gifts of enthusiasm and optimism and are generally charismatic, spontaneous and sociable.
So identify your favorite color and find which personality you hold most . So, friends let find out which color drives you most.(^.^)

Title : Phases of Life Changes
Assalamualaikum to Miss Hanum. This is an article that I got from my subscribed online newspaper. It's about human phase of life changes. To be exactly, like Martha Beck said in her article, human live their life like a butterfly. As we know butterfly life cycle is so unique. Martha once thought that inside the cacoon, the caterpillar will slowly growing it's "butterfly' physically, but it's actually wrong. Inside the cacoon, the metamorphosis phases are not beautiful as you think.
Same goes to us, human. We going through some phases like the butterfly. And of course it's not pretty as our dreams, we do face failures, break up and others.
Inside the article, "Growing Wing", Martha Beck shared about the phases of human metamorphosis. Physically, it has four phases; Dissolving, Imagining, Re-forming and Flying.We might go through these phases in order, might be not. The strategies to dealing with those phases depends on each phases.
PHASE 1 : Dissolving
"Dissolving feels like death". Mostly, the first phase is the scariest phase, since we are not exposed to it. We never experienced it and never taught how to deal with it. It's a feeling like we are losing our own identity, people assumed we're changed. But, we never think about that. How to deal with it? Fight your feelings. Try to remind our past life or make it new! Be a new person. It's not working? Try to focus only on what happening around you now, make yourself comfortable, or try to talk to someone who had experienced this kind of phase.
PHASE 2 : Imagining
It is when your mind begin to imagining things that you never expected. You suddenly creating a new future, when in the past, you never thought about it. It looks same as "dissolving". It happened when you never expected it. You begin to have some interests that you never heard before. Your usually daily routine suddenly make you uncomfortable. To deal with it, let yourself dreaming. Give yourself time to imagining a clear picture of your future. So that, you know what to achieve.
PHASE 3 : Re-forming
It's when you getting excited to fullfill your imaginations. It's similar to "changing" process. The difference is, you fail. You have desire, you think that you're ready enough then you fail, many times. In this situation, you should know (expect) that you'll get wrong. Things might not working this way. By that, you will put more efforts until it success.
PHASE 4 : Flying
It's time you are already become a new person. On this phase, just enjoy what you having and try having some improvements.

Greeting Miss Aisyah, As for me graphic designer is a professional within the graphic design and graphic arts industry who assembles together images, typography or motion graphics to create a piece of design. A graphic designer creates the graphics primarily for published, printed or electronic media, such as brochures and advertising. They are also sometimes responsible for typesetting, illustration, user interfaces, and web design, or take a teaching position, although these specialties may be assigned to specialists in various graphic design occupations. A core responsibility of the designer's job is to present information in a way that is both accessible and memorable.
Before I go on, let me make something clear. Of course I’m a Graphic Designer before this. The title of this diatribe was more to get your attention and provoke thought than anything else. I love graphic design, though these days I end up doing far more managing of my team than actual design myself. I deeply respect the history of our trade and wish our craft and creative skills were as respected as they once were. I’ll even admit that perhaps if we all worked together hard enough, we might be able bring back some of the former glory and understanding of the title Graphic Designer. But is that realistic considering recent trends, technological changes and today’s design landscape? Me thinks not. Not without some significant changes from within. But I will say this I’ll gladly admit I am wrong if a strong enough argument is presented to me.

Attention for all the ladies that want to loss their weight or remain their body shape...
Here i got some diet tips for you all for quick weight loss...haha...faster jot down a...
1)Drink plenty of water:
Water is responsible of flushing out waste from your kidneys, in turn metabolizing your stored body fat. Water also acts as a suppressant keeping the stomach full, and keeping your appetite controlled, and prevents dehydration which is sometimes the main cause for false hunger and craving. Drinking iced water makes your body burn about 62 calories as your body works to level out the waters temperature with your body’s temperature. This sums up to about 430 calories burnt…simply by drinking water.
2) Eat at regular intervals throughout the day:
Don’t miss breakfast, as it’s considered to be the most important meal of the day and should help you to avoid overeating at other meals. Master the art of portioning the quantity of all your meals.
3) Consume plenty of Fibres:
Adequate intakes of fibre by your body help to keep your bowels more active and help the mobility and processing of food. Fibrous foods gives a more prolong fuller feeling, controlling your hunger. Fibrous foods have fewer calories so the total calorie intake is also curtailed. Potatoes, beans, brown rice, broccoli and nuts are a great source of fibre.
4)Importance of Carbohydrates:
Carbohydrates can actually help you in quick weight loss. Consuming food containing carbohydrates along with moderate fats and calories in you diet can help you to lose weight. Fruits, vegetables and wholegrain are a good source of carbohydrates and also help to regulate hunger spikes.
With these tips in mind.i hope that your diet planning will be successful...Good luck...
Good luck to me too...kambateh...
Thank you again for viewing my post...happy... happy ...to you...^^

the climb by Miley Cyrus..
I can almost see it
That dream I am dreaming
But there's a voice inside my head saying
"You'll never reach it"
Every step I'm taking
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking
But I gotta keep trying
Gotta keep my head held high
There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be a uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb
The struggles I'm facing
The chances I'm taking
Sometimes might knock me down
But no, I'm not breaking
I may not know it
But these are the moments that
I'm gonna remember most, yeah
Just gotta keep going
And I, I got to be strong
Just keep pushing on
'Cause there's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be a uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb, yeah!
There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Somebody's gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb, yeah!
Keep on moving, keep climbing
Keep the faith, baby
It's all about, it's all about the climb
Keep the faith, keep your faith, whoa..
the end..
this song give a full meaning of myself..
everytime i heard this song,i will get the spirit..
for me, this song is about the difficulties of life...
we need to be strong to live in the world that have many obstacles..
we cannot give up easily in our life..
we must always look in the future and dont turn back..
we must always stand back if we fall..
we must keep moving and dont stop until we success...
this is my opinion aboaut this song..
anyone can give their own opinion in their own way...

A very good afternoon to Miss Aisyah Hanum. This my 1st time to write a comment in this blog . Last night i read an article about ‘What are the everyday sources of happiness‘In this article, there are steps to keep u happy。
1. Keep a gratitude journal
Sit down, daily, and write about the things for which you are grateful. Start with whatever springs to mind and work from there. Try not to write the same thing every day but explore your gratefulness.
2. Remember the bad
The way things are now may seem better in the light of bad memories. Don't forget the bad things that have happened, the contrast may encourage gratefulness.
3. Ask yourself three questions
Choose someone you know, then first consider what you have received from them, second what you have given to them and thirdly what trouble you have caused them. This may lead to discovering you owe others more than you thought.
4. Pray
Whether you are Buddhist, Christian, Jewish, Muslim or atheist, a ritualised form of giving thanks may help increase gratitude.
5. Use your senses
6. Use visual reminders
7. Swear an oath to be more grateful
8. Think grateful thoughts
9. Acting grateful is being grateful
10. Be grateful to your enemies
That are the steps that meke you happy everyday.

I will write about true friendship. Of course everyone have a friend’s. So is it a true friendship in your life? Not all friends that we can share everything. How can we find true friendship in this temporary world? Friendship involves recognition or familiarity with another's personality. Friends often share likes and dislikes, interests, pursuits, and passion. . Beyond that, genuine friendship involves a shared sense of caring and concern, a desire to see one another grow and develop, and a hope for each other to succeed in all aspects of life.
True friendship involves relationship. Many people say, "Oh, he's a good friend of mine," yet they never take time to spend time with that "good friend." Friendship takes time,that mean time to get to know each other and time to build shared memories.
Trust is essential to true friendship. We all need someone with whom we can share our lives, thoughts, feelings, and frustrations. We need to be able to share our deepest secrets with someone, without worrying that those secrets will end up on the Internet the next day. Real friends encourage one another and forgive one another where there has been an offense. Genuine friendship supports during times of struggle. Friends are dependable. In true friendship, unconditional love develops. I love my friends no matter what and I always want the best for my friends. Just be happy…

Good Day,
Today I would like to talk about my experience. Since I was a kid, I like to play around, watch television, singing and listening to song. The activity that I like the most will be listening to song. I like to listen to all kind of song, no matter in Malay language, English language, Chinese language or maybe other foreign language; as long as the song is nice n the lyrics are meaningful, as I’m a kind of sentimental girl.
Furthermore, by listening to song, I can learn a lots of words that I never see before. From those songs, I also can learn how to use those words which are new for me. I noticed this incident since I was in primary school. At that time, my language subjects are quite poor. After I fall in love with songs, my language is getting improved. . The most obvious of my improvement was happened to my Malay subject and English subject. These were told by my language teachers. When they gave me back my comprehension book, they told me that I started to change my writing style, started to use some word that they never teach us before. I’m so happy know about this. This make me more and more fall in love with songs.
After I studied in secondary school, my life becomes busy. But still I will keep in touch with songs, because it’s already part of my life. But there was a thing that I feel sad. It is, my time for reading and getting in to songs lyrics had reduced for my school live stuff. This effect to difficulty of my writing, I could use up to an hour only for an essay, this was really wasting my time.
Besides, songs can help me in releasing my tension. When I was feeling sad or tension, songs are the friends which can calm me down. And make me feel warm. So, how can I live without them?
So I promise myself, no matter how busy I am, I must read n understand 1 or 2 songs in a day, as I know that my languages are getting worst now. The other reason is, songs are part of my life now, I don’t wish to be apart from them. Without them I do not know who else can help me.
That’s all for this post. Thanks for reading.
Assalamualaikum and good evening,
When Miss Hanum mentions about the topic 'Literature and its Importance' I was really worried that we are going to review an old literature and study about it. Gladly she asks about our comment about this issue and this is what I think.
Literature is a great way to make reader think about what we write, the story that we try to convey in our novel or books. Though many of us ranted when we are give assignment about literature, it’s actually a good way for us to gain knowledge about how people live their live in different era. Modern literatures also have grown, as each writer try to express their experience and the experience of other, imagination and hopes into their work. Literature nowadays not only restricted to novel and poem, but also short story, essays and much more.
For some literature has become a main source for them to express their creativity, as to make a story timeless and enjoyable to the audience, many writer has choose many style of writing. Since novel and poetry only have words, writer has evolved their creative minds to describe things, scenery of a situation in less than 10 words. Wordplay are one of the element in literature that sometime puzzle people that read them, but also is amusing to read. Wordplay for poetry is very importance as poem is not long and sometime is less than 300 words.
What sometime made me wonder is how story that have been written though the writer has passed away still have a place among new reader and sometime an all time favorite for old reader. People have many impression and expression when it comes to literature, some like Shakespeare and there are people that like J.K.Rowling. For me I would like to spend sometime reading literature, back at secondary school literature is not a big problem for me since I love English, and our English teacher is very supportive. But when I step into university, much of my time are spend on assignment, having fun and learning new thing. Though I still sometime rant went we have to do assignment involving literature, literature is still important as it can give affect to us in many way.

Hello and greetings to you Miss Aisyah and also my other fellow friends. This time I would like to share a story about the history of our country...our most beloved MALAYSIA!!! Since this is the month of our Independence Day, so it would be my honour to share some story that I hope can make us as malaysian proud with our own nation and our own country. Therefore, this story are also, in order to show to everyone how pride I am to be what I am...a malaysian who loves his contry and history as well...
As we all know that,the Sultanate of Malacca was founded by Parameswara in 1402 and who later married the princess of Pasai in 1409. Centered in the modern town of Malacca, the sultanate stretched from Muslim Malay settlements of Bukit (Phuket),Setol (Satun),Pantai ni (Pattani) bodering Ayutthaya Kingdom of Siam(Thailand) in the north to Sumatra in the southwest. The Portuguese invaded its capital in 1511 and in 1528, the Sultanate of Johor was established by a Malaccan prince to succeed Malacca.
This is the conclusion that I can made about the fallen of the Sultanate Malacca when Portuguese invaded. Nowadays, I am really sure that there are only 1 or 2 students (out of 10) who really understands or already know about this whole things (like I Wrote before). The point is, I do not really understand why students nowadays prefer to abandon the history (no matter any history there are...) because for me history are really amazing...don't you think so???

assalamualaikum and very good afternoon to miss hanum and my friends..today,i would like to share with all of you about THE PENCIL..do you still remember about this literature??we had studied it when we in the secondary school..so,lets we recall back this short story by synopsis that i write below...
this story stared when Mr Jamal entered the class.The pupils become quiet as Mr Jamal entered the class after recess ends.The pupils greet their teacherabd the class monitor approaches Mr.Jamal and tell him that some student had fought during recess.Mr.Jamal comes to know that Zahid and Dolah are the two boys who fought during recess.He questions them.Zahid tries to explain that Dolah has stolen his pencil.But Mr.Jamal symphatises with Dolah and punishes Zahid with three strock of the rattan.
Zahid accepts the punishment but he feels disappointed and cries in silence.Mr.Jamal on the other hand, feels proud of himself as he has solved a problem with ease. The problem does not end there. As Mr.Jamal concentrates on his reading, Zahid goes over to Dolah and stares at angrily. He tells Dolah that he is a great liar and that he stolen his pencil and craved his initials on it. Zahid hits Dolah on his shoulder because he is upset.Dolah yells and is heard by Mr.jamal. Mr.Jamal feels annoyed and calls zahid to come up to his desk. He asks Zahid what he has just done. Zahid insist that Dolah has stolen his pencil. But,Mr.Jamal only wants to know what Zahid just done to Dolah. He insists on zahid admitting on hitting Dolah. Zahid does not say anything and acts as if he is ignorant and stupid. Mr.Jamal pulls Zahid's ears and ask him to tell the truth. Zahid feels threatened and admits hitting Dolah. Mr.Jamal pinches zahid's stomach and tugs at it, causing much pain to zahid. His face and ear turn red as a result of Mr.Jamal's punishment.Zahid returns to his classroom but looks at Dolah with vengeance.He feels like attacking him but he cannot do anything. he is angry that the thief is free but he,as the owner of the pencil, is being punished.Dolah is in the teacher's good instead and he is now the culprit.
actually,the pencil very meanful to Zahid.It is because zahid is poor child.He bought the pencil by his own effort.Zahid returns to school but he is no longer the quiet type.Zahid becomes aggresive and creates trouble for his classmates.his classmates complain about him to Mr.jamal.Mr Jamal gives him a warning but Zahid pays no attention.he is not bothering of anything.Zahid and Dolah becomes arch enemies.They look for an oppurtinity to hurt each other.Zahid bought a pocket knife as protection and to fought Dolah.The principal call zahid and qustions him on his action.Zahid tell the truth that he is afraid on Dolah and dolah stolen his pencil which in he trasure.
Mr.Jamal realize that Zahid is innocent.He tolerate Zahid's behaviour in class.He lets Zahid shoulder responsibilty in class.
the end..thank you..

GOOD EVENING...
Ghost?? I'm sure everyone of us know and hear this since young right? So,let me tell to you all about this.
We have all been raised with ghosts in our lives. Cartoons, stories & Legends, Halloween, and deceased relatives that we wonder about. We all die so it's part of our heritage, no matter what culture that is. We know as far back as man has been writing symbols on walls that we've contemplated spirits from another realm.
Ghosts are more than deceased people. If they were just that, there would be nothing to talk about. Crossing over to the next dimension doesn't make you a ghost. Ịt's when you come back and let your presence be known among the living. They move an object, provide a fleeting glance, come to us in our dreams, and whisper to us though we may not be able to see them. They are souls that have something to show, do or say to us.
Why do they come back? What is so compelling to them that they are not in final rest where they are in the afterlife? I think there are many reasons. For some, it's unfinished business. For others, it's pure love. They simply don't want to let go. Something strong exists within them to want to come back to this realm to hold dear, expose or endure something strong to them. I think it applies to the living as well. Why do we cling to thoughts of those that have passed, even to those that are still living? I guarantee you it's for many of the same reasons they do. Just because we leave this dimension doesn't mean we stop being human in our thoughts and desires. What we are here is what we take with us. The same love, fear, and desires don't cease when we do.
I think ghosts are just those souls strong enough to break through the dimensions to express their will or cling to some past. There are several ways they can do this. One of the most common are those that have just recently crossed over. Their energy is still strong enough that it's possible for them to be seen and even communicated with just a few hours or days after their departure. One might call this their etheric presence. It fades shortly after the physical perishes but it too diminishes quickly, like an aura that no longer has a host.
Hi,
I'm Nurul Ain Ahmed-CD09045, wanna to sharing my opinion on 'Literature & its Important' that suggested to us.I am writing an essay (actually I requested for that) and I also writing for my blog in my spend time only and I could use some help, any ideas would be greatly appreciated for posting if you have.
For me,literature contains of poetry, short stories and dramas like i have learnt in school before.It have the importants itself on society and why is it in the readers best interests.To make us think which is usually an exercise in humanity. I think that something is art or not depending upon whether it was created intentionally to be art either by the creator or by the consumers.
In the book title 'Lawyers and Literature' by James R. Elkins, he had said something about literature studying.I pick up some part that interested me to share with all of you:
"Literature lives through language, and so must we . . . ." [Id. at 60]
Literature "returns you to otherness, whether in yourself or in friends, or in those who may become friends. Imaginative literature is otherness, and as such alleviates loneliness." [Harold Bloom, How to Read and Why 19 (New York: Scribner, 2000)]
From the website UNLV Magazine from the entry title 'The Founder: Glenn Schaeffer' had wrote that:
"You look for your own story in literature; it's one of the best mechanisms you have to convince yourself you're not alone." [Glenn Schaeffer, founder of the International Institute of Modern Letters]
First of all,welcome to and good afternoon to our new lecturer Miss.Aisyah hanum and my dear friends.My name Thilageswari a/p Sinnasamy(CD09053)from section would like to give a comment about save money.
Most of the university student terrible with money problem because did not know correct ways to save money. It does mean you need eat “maggi” for 24 hours although it save our money. In many way we lost our money. First of all is top up.oooooppp!!!!!!!Have you been calculate how much you have spend for your top up for one month. From survive that I have done among 30 student only 10 of them calculate and take note about this problem.Supose what should student do to avoid this repeat? Avoid making nonsense calls such as contact friends without reason, talk to boy or girl friends for a long hours and unnecessary sms.You must use your mobile phone in correct way. You must limit your phone bills to save money. You just top up RM30 for a month and try avoid making unnecessary calls.
Furthermore, you also lost your money when do shoping.You must learn on how to do shopping? Before you go for shopping just list down the things that you should buy. Also, make sure that you withdraw smaller amounts of money from the bank, and limit your ATM machine usage. For example, I always make it a rule that I withdraw cash once a fortnight, for RM100.For, the girls who crazy shopping, don spend your money to just expensive accessories and cloths. You still can live without that things.
Next, is about the food. You need to buy food from cafeteria, it doesn’t mean you can not save money. It depend what meal you are eating. Student must choose meal according to food pyramid. As an educated student you know and know the ways to choose a good meal for daily life.
These are some tips on you should save money university. Thank you.

There's lots of things
With which I'm blessed,
My problems have been few,
But of all, this one's the best:
To have a friend like you.
In times of trouble
Friends will say,
"Just ask, I'll help you through it."
But you don't wait for me to ask,
You just get up and do it!
And I can think
of nothing more
That I could wisely do,
Than know a friend,
And be a friend,
And have a friend like you.

When talking about fast food restaurants, I will immediately think about KFC, McDonald, Burger King and A&W, Marry Brown because these are the most famous fast food restaurants around us. Most of these fast food restaurants are operating internationally all over the world. In fact, there are a lot of fast food restaurants out there which provide variety of fast food for people.
Nowadays, fast food is so common to all of us. Even the small kids also know about Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) and McDonald (burger). Fast food become a part in our eating habit and integrated into our life. I personally prefer to eat at KFC compares to McDonald and others fast food restaurants. The reason is very simple, because “its finger licking good” and I love their chicken’s original recipe and crispy taste. It’s so crunchy and crispy as you can hear the loud crunch sound when you bite through the tender, juicy chicken.
But have you know that affect the fast food on our healthy. There is some of effect I want to share with u, fast food is not nutritionally balanced and loaded with calories from refined sugar and fats. It also high contents of sodium (salt and other additives). For who have take fast food in a daily day, maybe obesity risk, hypertension, diabetes, high cholesterol and etc. Fast food also considered as junk food and deficient in essential nutrients like vitamins. However, the truth is if we consumed fast food on a regular basis, it will lead us to many kinds of health hazards in the long run. Therefore, it’s very important to take balance daily diet in order to maintain an optimal health.

Studies have now proven that chocolate is good for you. It is rich in antioxidants and has many health benefits, including lowering blood sugar and cholesterol. Cocoa comes from the Theobromo cacao plant. Half of the cocoa bean is made of fat in the form of cocoa butter. Cocoa powder is the edible non-fat part of the cacao bean. Most of the fats in chocolate are saturated, but it also contains lots of the "good" fats: oleic and linoleic acids.
Cocoa has one of the highest concentration antioxidants of any foods, in the form of the flavonoids: catechin and epicatechin. ORAC scores are used to measure the level of antioxidant properties in foods. This oxygen radical absorbance capacity test rates cocoa higher than most foods, including green tea or red wine.
The cocoa bean also contains insoluble fiber, which helps lower cholesterol levels. The fiber in chocolate has also been shown to reduce the rate of colorectal cancer, and to reduce constipation.
Dark chocolate contains magnesium, which helps soothe the nervous system, relax muscles, reduce PMS and build teeth and bones. Dark chocolate also contains the mineral copper, which is needed in many metabolic functions in the body.

First of all,for muslims have a nice fasting day.
What is means by love?
Since a very long time ago, people have searched for the meaning of love. But even the great philosophers, with their profound definitions, could not fully touch its true essence. In a survey of 4-8 year olds, kids share their views on love. But what do little kids know about love? Read on and be surprised that despite their young and innocent minds, kids already have a simple but deep grasp of that four-letter word.
Love is that first feeling you feel before all the bad stuff gets in the way."
"Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your french fries without making them give you any of theirs."
"Love is when someone hurts you. And you get so mad but you don't yell at him because you know it would hurt his feelings."
"Love is what makes you smile when you're tired."
"Love is what's in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen."
"If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a friend who you hate."
"Love is hugging. Love is kissing. Love is saying no."
This is just a short comment.thank you.

Assalamualaikum, we meet again now I will review topic about technology. Nowadays it many technology a developed. I so impressed about it, you may not imagine how the technology are growing today.Mobile phone, one of the technology that usually we have seen.it is one of the best selling digital products in today’s market. Large companies like Nokia, Sony Ericsson release new phones month by month. I could find out that most of the products released are having similar features but having a complete different appearance.Nowadays, product design and gimmicks are the new trends for the market today. The main purpose for the product is to attract us and earn money and let the consumers having a chance to show off their new digital products.Nowadays, the fungtion was not be the first choice
Try to think of those hungry children living in the third-world while you are deciding to buy your new model products when your old one is still 100% work.

Dear Miss Hanum.
Literature and its Importants.Well to tell you the truth I dont really care about literature.Please dont misunderstand me, its just that for me people have their own way to express their thoughts in their own way so the thing that I want to speak here is that if let say that I Write a poem and other person tries to interprate it, I dont think that his or her interpation is 100% or even close to be what Im trying to describe. Hence to make it clear, for me the one who write poem and other literature material is the only person that know what he's or she's trying to say and other people only will only know the meaning of the writting if and only if the writter itself expose the meaning of his writting. I dont have anything more to say about this and I think it is already enough with my opinion.
However I do strongly say yes that literature is important because it show that english languange can be beautiful if we know what, why and how to colourise simple things during writting. Literature for me is like a music that have their own insiration and melody of rythm to express its own idea of the song.
OK, thats enough thanks again for listening.

Well today want to tell you about my trip to langkawi, on OCT this year. It was my first time in a plane with my sister. Althought it is a small plane or an airbus atleast in my life I’ve achieved something. Took an afternoon plane to Langkawi. The condition of the plane is good not like we saw it at movie “Final Destination”. Where we can see all the rust the plane has. Interior was nice but the leg room was very disappointing. Its like sitting in a public bus. There is not much people on that time so we can take the whole stretch of the seats.
When the plane take off, well I never puke or air sick. It was normal but when we’re up in the sky the pressure was giving me sometime. I need to..well you know it. Upon arrival time to get ourself transport. Well I’ll recommend people who are going to rent a car please rent from your right hand side the booth. The corner left side the lady give us a really bad car, no petrol at all and even won’t start after we stop it.we request for another car..it was good with RM15 petrol and good aircond and tinted but problem is the smell.
Finding a petrol station it is hard from turn and turn we can’t find it so thank god we rent a car with some petrol in it. Then we found a petrol station got the car pumped and move to another destination which is the hotel we’re going to stay. It was located at the town where I think is nice because most of the time we’ll be at town so stay at town is better. Checked in take some rest and we move to the eagle square for some photo shoots then to the supermarket get some food. Then spend the time driving here and there for sight seeing. The one thing I like langkawi is there is no traffic jam at all..
Ok.. I dont have many times now. i will story for next post.. thanks you... Wait for my next post..

Hi everyone,
Once again I'm Nurul Ain Ahmed CD09045 want to sharing an article about the important of literature I read just now before ending our english class today. It is from the website-Success Stories: Life Skills Through Literature, January 1997 titled Why Literature in Prison? by Jean Trounstine
Correctional educators know well that illiteracy is higher in prisons than in the rest of the population. The study of literature offers many ways to improve literacy: it gives access to language, reading, writing, a shared culture, and one's own self. Still, not recognizing the power it has to change lives, many teachers shy away from using literature to teach offenders.
Offenders need instruction in the humanities because the humanities emphasize values, community building, and cognitive skills. Only if inmates confront their thinking can they begin to change. Classroom discussion, as well as reading on one's own, can begin this process. Students learn by observing what characters do and how they solve problems, confront issues, and succeed or fail. In classroom discussions, students voice their opinions and hear those of others. In some instances, they role play characters. As they learn more about their characters' roots, they become better equipped to think their way through some of life's problems.
Research shows that in order for education to be effective in prison, it must be meaningful to inmates. Literature reflects the diversity of human experience, and a teacher who chooses wisely can find texts that voice real concerns for students. We have found that men and women often respond to different texts. Although Modern American literature is most accessible, classic texts can work well, as long as relevance is sought. Because literature offers a more complex approach, it can open offenders, who have a tendency to see the world in black and white, up to a broader world view.
Educating prisoners means dealing with intense, often personal reactions. Teachers can use literature to help students learn to react with words instead of with violence or negative behaviors. Without moralizing, literature becomes a way to question, rethink, and rediscover values. Such an education lets prisoners feel a part of a group rather than outside it, and most important, it prizes each person's point of view.
Little bit, actually it gave me an aspiration about what is literature is about.Relieve...

Greetings again to all my friends and Miss Aisyah. Since this month is the most holy month from the other month, so it will my honour to wish all of you "Salam Ramadhan". As usuall my next story that I would like to share is about Hang Tuah. This is one of the famouse character in our nation. It would be my pleasure to share some information about this legendary character.
Hikayat Hang Tuah is a Malay work of literature that tells the tale of the legendary Malay Muslim warrior Hang Tuah and his four warrior friends (Hang Jebat, Hang Kasturi, Hang Lekir and Hang Lekiu) who lived during the height of the Sultanate of Malacca in the 15th century.
The most memorable chapter in the work concerns a duel between Hang Tuah and his closest friend, Hang Jebat. Hang Tuah was falsely accused of adultery with one of his sultan's maids by his jealous rivals. Upon hearing the accusation, the sultan ordered Hang Tuah killed, without an investigation of his alleged offense. Hang Tuah was secretly saved, however, by his executioner, a bendahara. Hang Jebat was aware that Hang Tuah was being unjustly punished and in a show of support and deep loyalty for his friend, revolted against the sultan. The sultan's forces were unable to suppress Hang Jebat. The sultan later came to realize that Hang Tuah was innocent, and immediately regretted sentencing Hang Tuah to death. The bendahara then told the sultan that Hang Tuah was still alive, and that only Hang Tuah could overcome Hang Jebat's rebellion. Hang Tuah was immediately recalled and given amnesty. After seven days of fighting, Hang Tuah managed to kill Hang Jebat. According to the Malay Annals, it was Hang Kasturi that fought with Hang Tuah instead of Hang Jebat.
Malay culture holds the Hang Tuah legends in extremely high regard. In fact, one of the hottest debates in Malay literature centers on the duel between Hang Tuah and Hang Jebat. Hang Tuah is a symbol of absolute loyalty to a ruler while Hang Jebat symbolizes truth and justice. Hence, there is the question of who is right.
Though it is generally perceived that there were five friends, there is doubt that Hang Lekir and Hang Lekiu are indeed two different persons. Due to the similarity, the differentiation of Lekir and Lekiu might be due to mistranslation. Many historians and literature experts disagree however, and point out that the five friends are a Malay version of the five warriors of the Mahabharata .
Apart from that, Hikayat Hang Tuah is highly critical of the Javanese and deals with the rivalry between Malacca and Majapahit. In the literary work, many of the crooks and the villains were from Majapahit or Java. The king of Majapahit is depicted as an indecisive person and Majapahit's grand vizier Gajah Mada as sly, cunning and unsympathetic.
Thats all for now, thanks for reading.....

Good evening everyone.
Today I would like to share my interest with you. For my indoor free time activities, I like watching movies and dramas, listening songs, reading story books and magazines. And most probably that’s the time that I would not make noise.
Sometimes I will attracted by the dialogs in the dramas and lyrics in the songs. Maybe this is because I think that it shows my point of view to something.
I had watched a Taiwanese drama called “Prince Meet the Second Princess”. The actress’s sister likes the chief actor, but de chief actor likes the actress. Although the actress likes him too she does not want to make her sister feel sad, so she decline him. She said that “Love a person is a wonderful thing.”. She hopes the love from him is wonderful and would not hurt anyone. When I watched this, I was totally attracted by this dialog. Even until now, I still remember it.
Then I also found a nice song, but it is a Chinese song, so sorry to those who do not know Chinese. The song name is “Belated Love” by Leo Ku. Below here is part of the meaning of the lyrics of that song.
I used to spend day and night with my best buddies but due to our jobs, we spend less time now
When we finally meet, we have nothing to say, it’s as plain as water
Work days and nights, met papa, wishing to complain. Suddenly realized his wrinkles have increased
Never realized that dad is aging. The guilt worries me
The thing that hurts most is to love too late. There are certain things that could not wait
Working hard blindly, be busy is more due to selfishness
Even in my dreams I have been pressured to do better
The scariest thing is, love has to be on time. Missed a second, feelings will become history
To find time in my busy schedule to meet the ones I love
To hug, to kiss, to do whatever, but I always wait till the next time
I also realized, my health is not as good as it used to be. After seeing the doctor, I'm told to be relaxed
Have bought all the DVDs, but I haven't watched even one, because of busy
Work days and nights, the money that I had saved, should be enough to tell her to marry me during Christmas
Who knows that she told me first, that she couldn't stand with it anymore, already hated me for quite some time
It’s too easy to lose when your love is too late. How I know that she couldn't wait till that day to arrive
Working hard blindly, busy until never bothered to know
Happiness will pass by, no chance to say I love you anymore
After noticing the lyrics, I felt very touch and it is quite meaningful. So everyone please love and appreciate all the people n things around you before it is too late.
Besides, I had read a book on the history of China, “Three Kingdom” (《三國演義》). I admire the characterictics of the protagonists. They are loyal and clever. And reading that book made me understand more about the history of China. I had watched a movie called
“Red Cliff” which is also related to that story too.
These are some of the things that attract me a lot. Hope that you will like it too.
Thank you.

Greetings to all of you again. Today is a 6th days of Ramadhan and yet of course we are still in our UMP (our beloved univercity). However, we still have only about 25 days before celebrate the Hari Raya....I'm so exited!!!
As usual, I'm going to share some story about one of the great character in history which is about Julius Ceasar. I think most of you know about him (or at least heard about him before). So it would be my honour again to tell and share a little story about him.
Gaius Julius Caesar was a Roman military and political leader. He played a critical role in the transformation of the Roman Republic into the Roman Empire.
As a politician, Caesar made use of popularist tactics. During the late 60s and into the 50s BC, he formed political alliances that led to the so-called "First Triumvirate," an extra-legal arrangement with Marcus Licinius Crassus and Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus ("Pompey the Great") that was to dominate Roman politics for several years. Their factional attempts to amass power for themselves were opposed within the Roman Senate by the optimates, among them Marcus Porcius Cato and Marcus Calpurnius Bibulus, with the sometime support of Marcus Tullius Cicero. Caesar's conquest of Gaul extended the Roman world to the North Sea, and in 55 BC he also conducted the first Roman invasion of Britain. These achievements granted him unmatched military power and threatened to eclipse Pompey's, while the death of Crassus contributed to increasing political tensions between the two triumviral survivors. Political realignments in Rome finally led to a stand-off between Caesar and Pompey, the latter having taken up the cause of the Senate. With the order that sent his legions across the Rubicon, Caesar began a civil war in 49 BC from which he emerged as the unrivaled leader of the Roman world.
After assuming control of government, he began extensive reforms of Roman society and government. He heavily centralised the bureaucracy of the Republic and was eventually proclaimed "dictator in perpetuity" (dictator perpetuo). A group of senators, led by Marcus Junius Brutus, assassinated the dictator on the Ides of March (15 March) 44 BC, hoping to restore the normal running of the Republic. However, the result was another Roman civil war, which ultimately led to the establishment of a permanent autocracy by Caesar's adopted heir, Gaius Octavianus. In 42 BC, two years after his assassination, the Senate officially sanctified Caesar as one of the Roman deities.
Much of Caesar's life is known from his own Commentaries (Commentarii) on his military campaigns, and other contemporary sources such as the letters and speeches of his political rival Cicero, the historical writings of Sallust, and the poetry of Catullus. Many more details of his life are recorded by later historians, such as Appian, Suetonius, Plutarch, Cassius Dio and Strabo.

HULA and greetings again. As you all know that I'm the "children of history" (a.k.a history's fanatic). Most of my comment are all about histories and because of that, this time I will still continue about it (never give up!!!). So today, I would like to share about another one of the famose character in history which is Adolf Hitler. This person are so famose (even my sister's little son know about him).
Adolf Hitler was an Austrian-born German politician and the leader of the National Socialist German Workers Partypopularly known as the Nazi Party. He was the ruler of Germany from 1933 to 1945, serving as chancellor from 1933 to 1945 and as head of state from 1934 to 1945.
A decorated veteran of World War I, Hitler joined the Nazi Party in 1920 and became its leader in 1921. Following his imprisonment after a failed coup in Bavaria in 1923, he gained support by promoting German nationalism, anti-semitism, and anti-communism with charismatic oratory and propaganda. He was appointed chancellor in 1933, and quickly established and made reality of his vision of a totalitarian, autocratic, single party, national socialist dictatorship. Hitler pursued a foreign policy with the declared goal of seizing Lebensraum ("living space") for Aryan peoples, directing the resources of the state towards this goal. His rebuilt Wehrmacht invaded Poland in 1939, causing the United Kingdom and France to declare war against the Third Reich, leading to the outbreak of the Second World War in Europe.
Within three years, Germany and the Axis powers occupied most of Europe, and most of Northern Africa, East and Southeast Asia and the Pacific Ocean. However, the Allies gained the upper hand from 1942 onwards and in 1945 Allied armies invaded Germany from all sides. His forces committed numerous atrocities during the war, including the systematic killing of as many as 17 million civilians, an estimated six million of whom were Jews targeted in a genocide known as the Holocaust.
During the final days of the war in 1945, Hitler married his long-time mistress Eva Braun. Less than two days later, the two committed suicide.

"Ohaiyo Ghozaimasta" or greetings and good morning to all of you espacially miss aisyah. I just realize that today(26Aug), it is only me who wrote you a comment. So, this time, I will try to share we all you about other things, maybe about somethings I like to do (ex. games or comics or animes).
So I think it would be much better if we start we the games that i like to play. The tittle of the games is "Neverwinter Nights".
The story begins with the player character being sent by Lady Aribeth to recover four monsters needed to make a cure for the Wailing Death, a plague that is sweeping the city of Neverwinter. With the help of Fenthick Moss, Aribeth’s love interest, and Desther, Fenthick’s friend, the player character is able to retrieve the monsters. As he is collecting these monsters, he is attacked by mysterious assassins from the cult that is behind the spreading of the plague.
As the cure is being made, Castle Neverwinter is attacked by Desther’s minions. He takes the completed cure and escapes the castle, with the player character and Fenthick in pursuit. When they catch up to Desther, he surrenders after a short battle. Desther is sentenced to burn at the stake, and Fenthick, despite being unaware of Desther’s true intentions, is sentenced to hang.
The player character meets up with Aribeth and they begin searching for the cult responsible for the plague and the attack on Neverwinter. With the help of Aarin Gend, Neverwinter's spymaster, the player character retrieves diaries of dead cultists and letters from a person named Maugrim, which convince Aribeth that the cult's headquarters are in Luskan. Aribeth goes ahead to Luskan, and the player character follows after speaking once more to Gend.
After arriving in Luskan, the player character hears rumors that Aribeth is joining with the cultists. These fears are confirmed when he finds her meeting with Maugrim and Morag, Queen of the Old Ones. They seek magical relics called Words of Power.
The player character retrieves all of the Words of Power except for one, held by the cult. He discovers that the words open a portal to a pocket world inside the Source Stone, where Morag and the other Old Ones are. He confronts Aribeth, and depending on how he handles the meeting, she either surrenders to the player character or he is forced to kill her. He then confronts Maugrim for the final word. He uses the words to enter the Source Stone and battle with Morag. After Morag's death, he escapes the stone as the world inside it implodes.
For me, this games are really the "Master Piece" of all games that had been create in this world. I had play so many kind of games in my whole life but there is no games that can beat this master piece. "LONG LIVE NEVERWINTER NIGHTS....!!!"

Title:Bermuda Triangle
I would like to share an article. This article is quiet interesting. Have anyone have been heard about the “Bermuda Triangle”? The “Bermuda Triangle” can also call as “Devil’s Triangle” is an imaginary area located off the southeastern Atlantic coast of the United States of America. Why I say this article is interesting. This is because “Bermuda Triangle” is noted for a supposedly high incidence of unexplained disappearances of ships and aircraft.
Since the days of early civilization many thousands of ships have sunk and/or disappeared in waters around the world due to navigational and other human errors, storms, piracy, fires, and structural/mechanical failures. Aircraft are subject to the same problems, and many of them have crashed at sea around the globe. Often, there were no living witnesses to the sinking or crash, and hence the exact cause of the loss and the location of the lost ship or aircraft are unknown.
It has been inaccurately claimed that the Bermuda Triangle is one of the two places on earth at which a magnetic compass points towards true north. Normally a compass will point toward magnetic north. The difference between the two is known as compass variation. The amount of variation changes by as much as 60 degrees at various locations around the World. If this compass variation or error is not compensated for, navigators can find themselves far off course and in deep trouble. Although in the past this compass variation did affect the "Bermuda Triangle" region, due to fluctuations in the Earth's magnetic field this has apparently not been the case since the nineteenth century.
So, this is a mysterious article or story that I have been read.

Good Morning Miss Aisyah , today I would like to share an article about diet tips. The latest diet trend these days is actually to veer away from trends altogether and to simply accept a healthy lifestyle. Nutritionists say that fad diets are out and basic healthy eating is in. But saying eat well and exercise isn't enough for most people. We still need guidelines and rules to keep us motivated and to keep us informed about what truly is healthy. Here are some tips to keep your diet knowledge up and your weight down:
1. Choose smart snacks. Grazing on snacks all day doesn't need to be as awful as it sounds. In fact, many nutritionists suggest eating between larger meals to keep cravings and overeating at bay. Have snacks prepared in advance-celery and carrot sticks, fruit salad, low-fat yogurt and granola, etc.-so that when hunger strikes you don't just head to your cupboard and grab what's easy (i.e. processed junk food).
2. Call a friend. When you're craving something not-so-great for your figure, turn to your cell instead. Calling a friend will help take your mind off your cravings and will give you someone to vent to about the woes of dieting. Offer up your own listening services to your friends so they can feel free to call you instead of binging themselves.
3. Turn off the tube. Eating while watching TV is a serious diet no-no. You hand begins to automatically dip back into the bag of pretzels or popcorn and before you know it, you've polished off a whole bag. Try eating more consciously, paying attention to every bite.
4. Eat breakfast. You may think that skipping a meal means skipping out on calories and therefore losing weight, but you're wrong. People who skip breakfast end up eating more later on in the day, as well as feeling sluggish and skimping out on exercise.
5. Picture yourself thin. Eating well is all about willpower and your willpower will strengthen if you keep your eye on the prize.

Miss Aisyah , the next article I would like to share is “How Diet affects the Hair”. A healthy hair not only putting products on your head; you also have to watch what you put in your mouth. So that your body can create healthy cells and tissues exactly the stuff that hair is made of. Poor nutrition, erratic meals, even crash diets can all lead to thinning, dullness, and dryness.
First of all, you need to have the right amounts of proteins. Proteins build cells, and they also contain amino acids that are particularly crucial to hair growth. These include cystine, cysteine, methionine, arginine and lysine. These can be found in meats, fish, poultry dairy and eggs. If you are vegetarian, you can also get it from soy, nuts, grains and seeds (although you may need a protein supplement). Dieticians believe that at least 15% of your calories must come from food that is rich in protein.
Many of us today having low-carb diet and it may lead to steady weight loss, but it may come at the price of the health of your hair. Carbs help in the growth of body tissues, and they are also the body primary source of B vitamins, which your body needs.
Too much fat is bad for you, but you need a little fat in your diet to stay healthy and to keep your hair healthy, too. To avoid health risks associated with a fat-heavy diet, get it from lean meat that is grilled or braised rather than fried. Needless to say, eating that hamburger is not a healthy option.
Why does diet play such a role in healthy hair? For one thing, your body will need the right amounts of vitamins and minerals to be able to create strong cells. People who go on crash diets will often report hair loss. Strands may be brittle and easily damaged, and will look dull despite all efforts to condition and style. This means your body is unable to replace cell properly, or that the cells it manufactures is unable to withstand the damage it takes from daily environmental abuse: brushing, hair drying, or even the UV rays in the sun. It has the same principle why skipping meals can cause your face to look blotchy and pale. If it can affect the color in your cheeks, it will also affect whether your hair is thick and shiny, or limp and lifeless.
Crash dieting can also affect the body’s chemical balance. Many people will go through natural hair loss cycles, such as during pregnancy or right after childbirth, as the body adjusts to shifts in hormones. A lack of nutrition can set off a hormonal nightmare, sending wrong signals to the hair glands like a fuse gone wrong. Severe stress can also do this.
Thus, for healthy hair, you need to invest in good hair care products and a good lifestyle. Eat right, and find ways to relax after a long day at work to minimize the effects of stress. Of course, a good shampoo never hurt.

hi,
I'm izzati and now i would like to share article about "Live Today As If It’s Tomorrow".
“A day merely survived is no cause for celebration. You are not here to fritter away your precious hours when you have the ability to accomplish so much by making a slight change in your routine. No more busy work. No more hiding from success. Leave time, leave space, to grow. Now. Now! Not tomorrow!”
How do you begin your day? Do you wake up to the amazing new possibilities that await you? Or do you have your own version of “Groundhog Day,” where each day is a tired replay of the day before?
Our brains love to work on routine. Habit and repetition do a couple of things for us. First, they allow us to be comfortable; we love the certainty of knowing what to expect and being successful at doing a task. The other thing that repetition does for us is to use less mental capacity to do the task at hand. Remember the first time you drove a car or rode a bike? It took every ounce of concentration and ability you had, just to get by and hopefully not crash! Over time, as your brain and body became familiar with the task, it took less effort and so you could relax, think about other things, and still be “successful.” The thought of crashing doesn’t even enter your mind, now that you’ve become good at the task. Psychologists estimate that 80% to 90% of our daily behavior is based on habit. What we think, what we do, and what we observe today is based on what we’ve thought, done, and observed in the past.
Although habit and repetition help us function in our busy, complex lives, they also limit us. Because it’s so easy to do the same things over and over, the natural tendency is for inertia. This is an actual law of physics: the “tendency of a body to resist acceleration.” Inertia is also resistance or disinclination to motion, action, or change. Does that sound like you in the morning?! When you think about creating a change in your life, do you tell yourself that it isn’t possible to create the change you want? Or that it would just be too “hard” to make changes? And if you do think those things, how long have you been thinking them? Could those thoughts and feelings to resist change are just part of your habitual pattern? Are those thoughts part of how you continue to live today as if it were yesterday?................

assalammualaikum and good evening to miss hanum and all my friends. to day i would like to share with all of you how to handle negative people around us..
As we know, around us made of many type of people with variety attitude. One of them are negative peolpe. this type people cannot see the other people live happily..so,here i have tips to handle them..
1) imagine a powerful force field around yourself that "Zapz"negative external thought like a bug zapper.
2) Imagine yourself big and huge and powerful like the "Jolly Gree Giant" waaaay up above the little "chirps" of negative voices down below you. It also helps to imagine the negative people to be like whinny little children. You don't hold it against kids that they can get whinny. But you also don't tolerate it.
3) Chant inside your own mind : " why does it work out better than i can possibly imagine." also put it in second and third person : "Why does it work out better than you can possibly imagine?" and "Why does it work out better than they can possibly imagine?"
4) In some cases you may need to challenge them. You are suggested to use the Modern Jedi NLP technique of " Positive Negatives". Here's an example : "I'm not suggesting that you are really being negative, but it seems to me that someone as intelligent as you are could notice some positive aspect about that situation that might put it into perspective.." This statement "calls" them on their negativity and also compliments and challenges them all at the same time.
5) another possible solution is put your parent to work! If they have nothing better to do than sit around watching TV give them a job. teach them how to do some of the thing that you need help with in the office. Engage them to help with the grand kids. if they feel needed and something vital to contribute they may make a shift.
6) For people who you have to share an office with or who are on a team with , but who you have no managerial responsibility, be very careful. In meeting where news ideas are being offered, the "devils advocate' types will kill innovation if they are allowed in to soon. however, they can envision what can go wrong with something, so later on they can be an asst in de-bugging an idea or process.
7) Ultimately, we always have a choice. if you are feeling stuck in a molasses like goo og negativity at work or at home you may have to leave.It sound extreme but it may be necessary to protect yourself or give yourself sometime to get stronger.
that's all.thank you.

"FRIENDSHIP"
Hi,
Now i want share about friendship, to me Friendship is based on solid base and foundation and it is invaluable.........
Yesterday I had accidentally stumbled across a programme in an FM Radio, in which I came to know that 2 nd August, was a ‘Friendship Day. Fans opted for their favorite songs which highlighted the friendship. Perhaps, we have such a day to remind ourselves on the value of friendship.
Then I came to the real question. What is friendship? In fact it requires an elaborate and comprehensive definition. Friendship is an unique relationship based on mutual understanding traversing the barriers of sex, race, color, caste, religion, age, nation or country.
There is a proverb ‘familiarity breeds contempt.But in my opinion familiarity breeds friendship.In the modern day context, especially in the on line, building a network of friendship is to facilitate and widen your contacts, so as to build up your business and to increase your income. In the process we actually create a net work of like minded people or the people who have similar interests.
Suppose, if you are interested in writing articles, blogs, poems and short stories, you are in search of people who have similar interests. In other words, we can say that while love is blind, friendship is not. It has eyes. Writers befriend writers, poets befriend poets, doctors befriend doctors, engineers befriend engineers and teachers befriend teachers and so on, which means friendship emanates between the like minded people, who have similar interest and knowledge. In fact such friendships have solid base and foundation.
Sometimes, friendship that arises between a boy and a girl naturally blossoms into love that ultimately leads to a marital relationship.
In the modern days, friendship in its perverted form turns into a gay, lesbian, trans gender and bisexual marriages amidst controversies. The basis of such perverted form of relationship is nothing but sex.
But when you analyze friendship a little more deeper, friendship apart from being mutual, in its ideal form, it is caring; it is understanding; it is selfless, it is reciprocal; it is devotion for the cause of others.
Friendship evokes friendship; it creates a congenial and harmonious atmosphere and relationship between friends.
The foremost value of friendship is that it civilizes the human beings and raises their level of relationship to a higher plane.
Apart from that it is the friendship that plays a vital role in regulating the relationship of countries in the world.
Let us cherish, let us build up, let us value and let us commemorate friendship in the true sense of the word !

1) take responsibilty for you
When you find yourself reacting to what someone says or does take a moment to take a deep breath and reflect on where the reaction is coming from. In what way are you feeling a loss of control?
Caution : if the other person is not willig to take responsibility for their behavior,this approach can actually increase their stree. Assess your options and choose ypur response wisely.
keep in mind that de-stressing is not dependent on what you choose to do. de-stressing is in understanding that your choice is in your control.
2) Let go of the controlling the other
acknowledge and respect the other person's right and responsibility to think, feel and act according to their beliefs and desires Acknowledging the other person's control and responsibility for themselves does not mean that you have to agree with them.When people are not feeling controlled, they are less stressed and more open to being influenced and persuaded to see things from another perspective.
3) Take charge of your position
reduce ypur stree by taking charge of your physical, non-verbal power in the relationship.Make sure you are at level physical position with the other person. If they are standing either invite them to sit or ypu stand up. Stand up straight, feel about shoulder width apart and breath deeply into the base of your pelvis. Maintain direct,open,non-glaring eye contact.if you anticipate a conversation will be stressful,pick a location that will reduce the stress, as taking a walk in nature, a neutral or living room-like setting, or space that is open,comfortable and light.
4) Use 'I' statements
take responsibility by using 'I' statements-i think,I feel,I prefer. Instead of blaming or accusing the other person for making you feel a certain way,communicate how you feel based on what has happened and how ypu would like it to be different in the future. This can enhance communication by giving the other person information about what is important to you. The other person can then consider this information in the future. of course, you have no control over that. You can only control sharing your side of the communication.
5) request feedback
it is important to realize that everyone has a different perspetive and interpretation of what thay see and hear. Eventhough you may both speak the same language,two people will not hear things the same way.Assuming people see things the way you do or that they "should" created stress.
it is important to understand that there are as many ways to view a situation or experince as there are people involved. requesting feedback with curiosity and an oopen attitude is an important way to increase clarity and reduce the stress of misunderstanding.
6) Putting it together
when you understanding that everyone has the equal right to think, feel and act according to their own judgement and that everyone has a unique perspective,you realize that trying to control another person is futile.
therefore,the important thing are patient and face the problem in relationship without any stress.
thank you.

Futhermore,this project is quite complicated because we need to think what theme that we want to do and design the interfaces for it. well, the most difficult part is when coding for each interfaces. It is alot of problems come out and until sometimes i have a thought that give up to do it. But luckly I have a friend,I really want say million thank you to him that help alot to settle all problems that I:m facing. Because of doing this assignment, I'M already scarifice alot of my sleeping times for this few days.

Hello everyone..now,i want to share with you about SHY..i know many people have shy to speak with someone who they like or admire..here the way to overcome this situation.
1) you must thing that all person is a human being, just same like as you.They eat,they sleep,they have feelings, hopes and fears and their head is full of thought just like you and everyone else.
2) all person is not better and no worse than you. you are just as valuable a human being as they are, no matter their status.There is no need whatsoever to feel intimidate by thid person.just treat them with the respect that you would like people to show you.
3) you may think someone is handsome or pretty or find them attractive in some way but, until you get to know them, you can only guess at what they are really like. people are often very different away from the work place. They may be nice and kind or they could be horrible and selfish.
4) you may start engage them in small talk such as "Good morning.How are you today?" or "Hello.have you got lots of work on today?" or "Hi,how's it going today?"Just think of simple little questions you could ask that would be relevant to your work or work place.Always listen carefully to the anwers as you may have follow up questions. Listening is the important skill of conversation.
so,start your conversation now with simple "how are you?" questions and, if you find you like someone, gradually talk more to them and get to know them better and let them get to know you..
You only live once.Don't let shyness spoil you life..
thank you for reading.. :)

How to Be Happy!
Near every single person has heard that catch tune "Don't Worry, Be Happy' sung by Bobby McFerrin. Living an enjoyable life that you can look forward to is a wonder that you can gain. A well known and well said saying tends to be 'The only thing in life that will remain the same is change' and we have it in our power to make needed changed if we so desire.
Here are a few easy things to keep in mind if you want to have more happiness in your life.
Friends, social gatherings, and personal relationships are all things needed to be happy. Everyone tends to be different, you need to take people for whatever or whoever they are, don't start bad situations with others, avoid arguments, and just let it go.
Being thankful is always a great mindset. There is a lot to be grateful for. Tell the cook you appreciate the dinner, let the window cleaner guys know you are grateful, and even thank the taxi guy for getting you there in one piece.
The news tends to cause stress. Don't watch it as much. There are just those people out there who can't get the day rolling without watching the news.
Keep track of your time. Keeping schedules, making goals, setting up to do lists, and making priorities are all parts of what we call Time Management. To get more skilled in your own time management, you need to cover these various helpful and needed basics.
Always have yourself a good laugh everyday. Have to listened to a good joke recently? Why don't you let those close to you hear it.
Always share your desires, friendships, feelings, and passion with those in your life. Usually they will return your feelings. Do not keep built up rage or aggravations inside yourself. Why not instead let them out some how that won't cause harm to anyone.
If you work hard towards something, it really gives you a sense of satisfaction. It lets you feel like you are skilled at completing what you need to. You feel a sense of self worth when you accomplish something, it's a necessary feeling. The trick is to spend time on things that you believe is worth your time.
Learning new things is also an enjoyable experience. Why not try to learn at least one new thing a day? Gaining knowledge builds on who we are and allows us to see new horizons.
Also stay physical by doing some exercises like running, jogging, and walkng, it's what we were made to do. Experience the feeling of being alive.
It's best to stay away from negative factors in your life like overly loud sounds, anything toxic, and hazard filled areas.
These are just a few easy things to help you lead a happy hope filled life. Being happy is as simple as deciding to be someone who is happy. How positive or negative the outlook is, how joy filled or overly stressed, how chilled or bothered we are are all things that Abraham Lincoln saw as choices we make. Just choose to be a happy person, it's that easy. "Most people are about as happy as they make up their minds to be." as quoted from Abraham Lincoln.

"Emotions"
hi,
Now i would like share article about emotions...
Emotions are our feelings. Literally. We feel them in our bodies as tingles, hot spots and muscular tension. There are cognitive aspects, but the physical sensation is what makes them really different.
Articles on emotion include:
Association and emotion: when we associate with people and events, we feel emotions.
Basic emotions: there are lots of emotions, but what are the basic ones?
Purpose of emotion: what is the real value of emotions?
Emotional arousal: The process of getting emotional.
Emotion and decision: our decisions are largely emotional.
Emotion and rationality: which often seem to be mutually exclusive.
Emotional Intelligence is to emotions what IQ is to cognitive intelligence.
Empathy: the ability to feel what others feel.
Facial emotional indicators: Detecting emotions through their expressions.
Primary and secondary emotions: Those that are key drivers and others.
Temperament, Mood and Emotion: Emotional states of different duration and cause.
Theories about emotion: deeper stuff about emotion.
The Seven Deadly Sins are all emotions, as are The Seven Virtues.
A basic of much emotional arousal is that there is a goal at stake somewhere. Our emotions thus cause us to want and not want. And when we have what we wanted, we then have emotions about owning it.
Emotions of wanting: greed, hope, envy, desire, love
Emotions of not wanting: fear, shame, repulsion, contentment
Emotions of having: happiness, pride, guilt, jealousy
Emotions of not having: anger, sadness, distress
Other emotions: surprise
Emotions often lead to coping activities. When we feel something, we consequently respond to that feeling. This can be both in the immediate (and often subconscious) response to the feeling and also in the more thoughtful handling of the aftermath. Where this has been a negative feeling, the response may range from vigorous justification of our actions to conciliatory apologies and other 'making up'. A common response to the repression of unwanted emotions is displacement, where we act out our frustration in other ways. Thus a reprimanded child, knowing they cannot answer back, may go and 'punish' their toys.
Emotions affect and are a part of our mood, which is usually a more sustained emotional state. Mood affects our judgment and changes how we process decisions.
That all and thank you....

Dark Chocolate Is Healthy Chocolate
Hi,
this is the last one article that i would like share, about dark chocolate is healthy chocolate..
It's the best medical news in ages. Studies in two prestigious scientific journals say dark chocolate -- but not white chocolate or milk chocolate -- is good for you.
Dark Chocolate Lowers Blood Pressure
Dark chocolate -- not white chocolate -- lowers high blood pressure, say Dirk Taubert, MD, PhD, and colleagues at the University of Cologne, Germany. Their report appears in the Aug. 27 issue of The Journal of the American Medical Association.
But that's no license to go on a chocolate binge. Eating more dark chocolate can help lower blood pressure -- if you've reached a certain age and have mild high blood pressure, say the researchers. But you have to balance the extra calories by eating less of other things.
Antioxidants in Dark Chocolate
Dark chocolate -- but not milk chocolate or dark chocolate eaten with milk -- is a potent antioxidant, report Mauro Serafini, PhD, of Italy's National Institute for Food and Nutrition Research in Rome, and colleagues. Their report appears in the Aug. 28 issue of Nature. Antioxidants gobble up free radicals, destructive molecules that are implicated in heart disease and other ailments.
"Our findings indicate that milk may interfere with the absorption of antioxidants from chocolate ... and may therefore negate the potential health benefits that can be derived from eating moderate amounts of dark chocolate."
Translation: Say "Dark, please," when ordering at the chocolate counter. Don't even think of washing it down with milk. And if health is your excuse for eating chocolate, remember the word "moderate" as you nibble.
The Studies
Taubert's team signed up six men and seven women aged 55-64. All had just been diagnosed with mild high blood pressure -- on average, systolic blood pressure (the top number) of 153 and diastolic blood pressure (the bottom number) of 84.
Every day for two weeks, they ate a 100-gram candy bar and were asked to balance its 480 calories by not eating other foods similar in nutrients and calories. Half the patients got dark chocolate and half got white chocolate.
Those who ate dark chocolate had a significant drop in blood pressure (by an average of 5 points for systolic and an average of 2 points for diastolic blood pressure). Those who ate white chocolate did not.
In the second study, Serafini's team signed up seven healthy women and five healthy men aged 25-35. On different days they each ate 100 grams of dark chocolate by itself, 100 grams of dark chocolate with a small glass of whole milk, or 200 grams of milk chocolate.
An hour later, those who ate dark chocolate alone had the most total antioxidants in their blood. And they had higher levels of epicatechin, a particularly healthy compound found in chocolate. The milk chocolate eaters had the lowest epicatechin levels of all.

Hi! How are you? I hope my lecturer and all of my friends are fine. This time I would like give comment about a short story “Lamp to the Slaughter” by Roald Dahl. Actually this is such a interesting and everyone can including children can enjoy the story.
The summary of the story begin like this:
Dahl commences with a picture of static coziness in a middle-class, domestic setting. Mary Maloney, six months pregnant, waits for her policeman husband Patrick Maloney to come home from work. The scene emphasizes domesticity: ‘‘the room was warm and clean, the curtains drawn.’’ Matching chairs, lamps, glasses, and whisky, soda, and ice cubes await. Mary watches the clock, smiling quietly to herself as each minute brings her husband closer to home. When he arrives, she takes his coat and hangs it in the closet. The couple sits and drinks in silence—Mary comfortable with the knowledge that Patrick does not like to talk much until after the first drink. So by deliberate design, everything seems normal until Mary notices that Patrick drains most of his drink in a single swallow, and then pours himself another, very strong drink. Mary offers to fix dinner and serve it to him so that he does not have to leave his chair, although they usually dine out on Thursdays. She also offers to prepare a snack. Patrick declines all her offers of food. The reader becomes aware of a tension which escapes Mary’s full notice.
Patrick confronts Mary and makes a speech, only the upshot of which is given explicitly: ‘‘So there it is. . . . And I know it’s a kind of bad time to be telling you, but there simply wasn’t any other way. Of course, I’ll give you money and see you’re looked after. But there needn’t really be any fuss.’’ For reasons which Dahl does not make explicit, Patrick has decided to leave his pregnant wife.
Mary's first reaction is one of disbelief and rejection of the reality of what has just taken place. She thinks that perhaps she has imagined his brutal words, and decides that the most sensible course of action is to assume that she had indeed imagined them. This time he does not stop her as she heads for the kitchen, managing to croak out quietly, "I'll get the supper."
Once she has left the room a wave of nausea hits her, and her actions become automatic. She goes down to the cellar, opens the deep freeze, and pulls out the first thing she lays her hands on. It is a frozen leg of lamb. Lamb for supper, she decides numbly, and carries it back upstairs, holding it by the thin bone that jutted out of the meat. As she leaves the cellar and walks through the living room towards the kitchen, she sees her husband standing by the window, and stops. He hears her, but does not turn around. "For God's sake," he says to the drawn curtains. "Don't make supper for me. I'm going out."
Assured now that she had not imagined his words, Mary Maloney walks up quietly behind him, and without hesitation she musters up all her strength and swings the large, frozen piece of meat high in the air, bringing it down as hard as she can on the back of his head. As if in a cartoon, Patrick Maloney stands for four or five long seconds, swaying, before falling dead on the carpet.
The noise of the crash brings the stunned woman out of her reverie. "All right," she says, "so I've killed him." She suddenly is able to see everything very clearly, and her mind begins to think very fast. She wonders briefly if an unborn child is spared when its mother is given a death sentence, but immediately dismisses the thought from her head. She is not prepared to find out.

Hooi Wei Yan (CD09057) C12
Hello everyone and good day to Miss Hanum. =) Once I saw the topic of the second comment which was given by Miss Hanum, the first thing that came out in my mind was the poem that I had read in Form 4, “The Road Not Taken”.
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that, the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
two roads diverged in a wood, and I --
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
It says a traveller comes to a fork in the road and needs to decide which way to go to continue his journey. And after hesitation, he picks the road which is “less travelled by”. In our lives, we always need to make choices. From small matter like what to eat for our dinner, until big decision such as what kind of lives that we want in our future, we will also come to a fork in our lives.
I remember at the beginning of year 2005, when I was in Form 4, we were asked to choose the subjects to study in the next 2 years. There were 4 choices, such as pure science, physics and account, biology and economic, and art. I knew that my parent would not let me choose art classes for sure. And based on my PMR result, I only left with 2 choices. I felt helpless. After listening to my parent’s advices and discussing with them, I hoped I can choose biology and account, but there were no such choice for me. So lastly, I got in to the physics and account class.
Before applying UPU, I was quite hesitated while choosing the courses. This was because I was not very clear about the prospects of those courses. And the main thing was I did not know what I want and what I like. Should I choose account since I get 1A in my SPM? Or choose computer science like my friends? Or hotel management that mum said it will make me earn a lot in the future? =p Or bla bla bla.. That time I only know that I would not choose engineering even though I was a physics student, because I have no interest in it. Once I wished to become an optics, but unfortunately I have never study biology before and I do not have the base of it. Then I went ask my mum again, “Mummy, what course should I choose?”. Once again I felt helpless.
In my Form 6 days, I saw a sentence which is quite meaningful from a friend’s Friendster profile. He wrote "Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail." in his shout out. After surfing the internet just now, I get to know that it was said by Ralph Waldo Emerson, an US essayist & poet (1803 - 1882). I do not know whether I can make it or not. But I hope you all will be enlightened after reading that sentence.

"I want some potatoes please, Sam. She repeats the lines she has rehearsed, improvising some easy banter with the grocer Sam, commenting in passing that her husband had come home tired that night and wanted to stay in for dinner, so she was going to cook some lamb and vegetables for him.
As she hurries home, she coaches herself mentally that she is returning home to cook dinner for her husband.
She is smiling and humming to herself as she enters the house, and calls out gaily to her husband. When there is no response as she goes into the living room, it really is quite a shock to see her husband lying there on the floor, and she finds that she actually does not need to act at all. She begins to sob, kneeling by his side, not acting, but at the same time marveling at how easy and natural it all seems.
A few moments later she goes to the phone and calls the police station, a number she knows off by heart. When a voice answers, she is ready with a hysterical "Quick! Come quick! Patrick's dead!"
After a few brief questions, the patrol car arrives in no time, and she knows the policemen who are in it. She tells them the story of Patrick coming home tired, and them deciding to stay in for dinner as a result. She tells them that she went to the grocer, bought a few things, and when she came home, she had found him lying on the floor. A doctor, two detectives, a photographer, and a man looking for fingerprints, all ask her to repeat her story, and question her in detail. Jack Noonan, one of the officers she knows, is particularly concerned for her well-being. They determine that Mary's husband has been killed by a blow to the back of the head with a weapon that is almost certainly large and made of metal, he tells her. Although they are still looking for it in the house, it is also possible that the murderer has taken the weapon with him. In a situation like this, he tells her, "Get the weapon, and you've got the man."
The detectives ask her in the course of the investigation to think about the contents of her home, to try to think of what could have been used as the murder weapon. At around nine o'clock, she asks Jack Noonan if he would fix her a drink, and have one himself while he is at it. One by one, the men are all persuaded to have a drink in the living room with Mary Maloney.
After a while, Sergeant Noonan remembers that the meat is still cooking in Mrs. Maloney's kitchen. He offers to turn it off for her, and she thanks him gratefully for remembering. When he comes back in from the kitchen, she asks a favor of him and the other officers. Jack Noonan resists at first, but as he and the other men are hungry, they are finally persuaded to tuck into the large leg of lamb in the oven.
She overhears the men talking in the kitchen as they eat, enjoying the feast that they were talked into eating. They are talking about the size of the murder weapon used to hit poor Patrick. The report from the doctor showed that his skull was smashed to pieces, as if it had been hit with a sledgehammer. Which is why, they reason, it ought to be easy to find. "And in the other room, Mary Maloney began to giggle."
I hope enjoy reading the story. Thank you.

Dear miss Hanum,
a few hours ago, I went to kuantan to buy some clothes.Actually nothing interesting or extraordinary to tell just that i want to share or to expose to you about a bundle shop that's running near to kuantan parade.when i arrive at that particular place this morning i was quite shocked to see so many collections of clothes such as t-shirt, jeans, leather jackets, sweater and shoes. i know when talking about bundle shop,most of the collection are already rejected or should i say that already out of date and it can be thrown away but really, you should check for your self because most of the sold item is still good and some of them are worth to buy for. i took almost 3 hours inspecting, choosing and comparing all the collection that are presents at the shop and guest what, i blow of with 3 sweater and 1 t-shirt that cause me only 25 bucks, quiet cheap isn't it. maybe,if i go to boutiques and collection store, i would most likely spend more than 100 bucks for the same items.well look at the time, time to go to do more shopping.thanks for listening.

Section 12
Good day,
In this post, I would like to talk about a song. It is a Chinese song. Its name is “Can you fall in love with me” (translated). This song is recognized by my friend. On that day, the song was still new for me, because I never heard the song before. Then my friend sings to me. After I heard it, I like it so much. As what he told me, the song is very meaningful and very sentimental. Some more, the song is sang by one of my favorite singer. As I’m writing this post, I’m listening to the song also.
For me, this song is very touching with a bit of sadness. It is talking about a boy fall in love secretly toward a girl. But the boy never tries to tell the girl. He wants to keep it as a secret, as both of them are good friend, so he wants to keep it to stay their relationship. In my opinion, i think he will happy to stay beside her rather than lost her. As he does not know what she is thinking. Is she feels the same with him? He lost his confident.
The day came, he feel that he want to tell her the truth. None of a day he will stop thinking about her face, her beauty and so on. He feel suffer to keep this feeling. Whenever he closes his eyes, her face will appear. He really wonders, and really wants to ask:” can you fall in love with me? Can you think about me? Although I seem like out of my mind, but please tell me the truth. Do not worry that I will get hurt. I just want to know the truth. No matter what answer you will give, it will make me calm. Do not accept me, because you are sympathize to me, it so cruel to me. . So please tell me, either happiness or loneness that you will give?”
In the song, I can feel that how struggle he is. He want to stay their relationship by keeping the secret, but on the same time, he feel suffer too. He really wants to know how she thinks. Pity of him.
So, it is a difficult thing to involve ourselves in love. There are many thing have to consider before you start a relationship. Be ready before start a relationship. No matter what answer we get, stay calm, a relationship is involve both side, try to respect to the decision. This is why I love the song. It is really meaningful.
Thanks for reading.

Huu~ Finally I had finished the assignment and can sigh with relief already. I started doing that assignment on last Saturday (22/08/09), spent time finding its pictures and information. It’s my application development workshop assignment. I started designing and coding it on Sunday. Then I faced a big problem. That is I was not able to put in a table to show the information. I got a bit tension and asked my senior for help. Finally I decided to change my topic.
Then once again I searched for the pictures on my new topic. Do and do and do. When I almost finished designing the interface, problem occurred again. There was nothing wrong with my coding and design, but it had a bit jammed whenever I ran the application, and then became not responding. Then I had no way to solve the problem and my friend suggested me to do it again.
The third time, I did it! Although I had spent quite a lot of time on it I think it worth it because I really learned a lot. Because of that assignment, I borrowed notes and asked for help from my roommate. And from that I get to know quite a number of coding. Finally I was able to pass it up on time in Thursday (27/08/09).
On the same day, we had a test on the subject. And thanks to the assignment, I know how to code the system and it is free from error. But the most pity thing is, I was not able to finish it in time. So at last I passed up an uncompleted system.
I started to find some interest in this subject since I was able to solve the errors occurred in the system. It makes me feel the sense of accomplishment when the system can run successfully. Maybe that’s the thing that motivates me, so I hope that I can learn more on it. =)

Assalamualaikum and a very good morning to you Miss Hanum.Today i want to share a new that i read.It is about Pupils to master basic skills by Year Three.The Education Ministry will ensure that by 2012, all primary school pupils will master reading, writing and arithmetic by the time they enter Year Three.
Education minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin said there were Year Six pupils who still could not read or write properly.
"We want to eradicate this problem and this is one of the national key result areas (NKRA) that has been assigned to the Education Ministry," said Muhyiddin, who is also the deputy prime minister.
He said the ministry plans to check pupils in Year One so that they could identify any problems that might prevent them from mastering the three skills.
Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin presenting a mock cheque on behalf of Restoran Rakyat 1Malaysia to Parit Sulong member of parliament Datuk Noraini Ahmad at the restaurant’s official opening yesterday. With them is Umno secretary-general Datuk Seri Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor . The donation, which will go to orphans in Noraini’s constituency, is part of the restaurant’s weekly fundraising efforts where patrons pay any amount for their food and drinks every Friday. Ukhwah Cooperative president Datuk Rahim Baba says the campaign has been successful, with the pulling in an average revenue up by 50 per cent more revenue compared with other days.
"We want to find out if the pupils have problems like eyesight or hearing impairment or if they are slow learners. This way, we can come up with solutions for them."
Muhyiddin said this in his speech at buka puasa event with the people at the Sungai Terap mosque in Jorak near here last night.
He said the ministry would also increase the percentage of pupils entering Year One with preschool education by making it part of the education system.
"At the moment, only 67 per cent of pupils entering Year One received preschool education.
"We want to increase it to 87 per cent by 2012."
He said the ministry would open 318 new preschool classes next year, while the private sector would open another 400.
"The Community Development Department will also open 50 new kindergarten classes every year," said Muhyiddin.
In another development, he said the ministry would also offer incentives to principals, teachers and staff of schools that achieve excellence.
"The ministry is currently in discussion with the Finance Ministry and the Public Service Department on ways to give these incentives.
"Hopefully this will make teachers work harder to ensure their schools excel in all aspects including academic, management and administration."

Dear Miss Hanum.Today i want to chare about Cyber criminals.As we know today there's a lot of this crime.Cyber criminals targeting movie downloads
EAGER to watch highly-anticipated blockbusters for free, thousands of Internet-savvy users are downloading movies from many illegal sources online.
This has caught the attention of cyber criminals.
Cyber crooks were using new movie releases to distribute malware and Windows and Mac users were at risk, said Kannan Velayutham, Symantec Malay-sia's consultant for enterprise security.
(Malware, short for malicious software, is a software designed to infiltrate a computer without the owner's informed consent).
Kannan said the new trick by cyber criminals was to host a blog on a reputable website.
"This re-directs users to a website hosting malware. For example, to watch Obsessed featuring Beyonce Knowles for free online, users might search using keywords such as movie, free, video, online, and watch, along with the movie's name.
"A search phrase such as 'obsessed movie online free full video' will yield results that redirect them to a blog hosted on blogspot.com.
"Once the user clicks on an image that appears to be a video player window, it redirects to a codec download. (A codec is a computer programme that shrinks large movie files, and makes them playable on the computer).
"The codec is more often fake," said Kannan.
Other movies that have been targeted include Inkheart, 17 Again, Dragonball Evolution, American Violet, State of Play, Monsters vs Aliens, Hotels for Dogs and Fired Up.
Kannan said Internet users must watch out for social-engineering tricks.
"These deceive or tempt individuals to enable malicious code attacks. Users are advised to exercise caution when visiting free online movie sites. It is also critical for users to download applications, files, programs, software updates or codecs only from their official sites or from reputable and trustworthy sources.
"Ultimately, if something seems wrong or peculiar, it probably is."
Assalamualaikum and good afternoon…
I came across an article today in National Geographic website about a research that’s going on to use malaria mosquito itself to fight the malaria disease, stated in the article that the mosquito own immunity system killed almost 80 to 90 percent of the malaria parasite that the mosquito have inside their body. This research is part of the international effort to create a new generation treatment for malaria, experts also thinks that the chances of eradicating the virus when it’s inside the mosquito is better since the population of parasite inside the mosquito are lower.
The research also reveals that malaria mosquito blood can form a defensive system that could destroy the parasite when it enters the mosquito body through its daily meals which is blood. This plan however is a long term plan in fighting malaria disease, since a lot of research need to be done in creating a genetically modified mosquito with their antibody strong enough to fend off all malaria parasites.
This paradigm-shifting research and cure is not easy and quick as it sound, there’s still more research to be made, protein to be study and comparison study to be done. Essentially I hope that this project is successful and can be finish in the near future, as the method use may also be applied to dengue mosquito.

Good day,
SONNET 18
Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm'd;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature's changing course untrimm'd;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade
Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest;
Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou growest:
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this and this gives life to thee
Still remember Sonnet 18?? It is one of the poems that I studied when I was in Form 5. When my teacher was teaching this poem, I thought it was a love poem. As I go it, it is not what I thought. It is about how a man appreciates a poem. And William Shakespeare had described a poem as a lover. While I read it, I understand it in the different way, after I survey it real meaning, only I realize it. This is the special thing of reading literature, as it will encourage people to search and survey what it really means.
Literature is one of the ways that people use to express their emotion or what they want to tell. It used to describe anything from creative writing to more technical or scientific works. So it consist many beautiful words that we can learn and use in our comprehension.
Literature such as poems, short stories, dramas, fiction and nonfiction.
The most interesting category is poem. Most of the readers will say that the poem is very hard to understand. But basically, it gives us the opportunity to survey and discover meaning in it. From that, we tend to gain more knowledge of how the author plays with the word and how creative they are. This can help us in our writing or talking. Furthermore, most of the poems are containing moral value which can motivate us.
As for the drama and short story, the authors use their creativity to write out the story in more interesting way. Most of it is easy to understand, as it just like story telling. This can attract the reader to read it.
Authors use language to make the presentation of the more interesting. They use language to engage the readers’ senses and imagination. Authors use different styles to express their ideas, feeling and experiences. This is why literature can catch my interest.
Thanks for reading.
Good day everyone,
Please read this line:
Music to hear, why hear'st thou music sadly?
Above is a snippet -or more appropriately, a line- of a sonnet composed by the famous William Shakespeare.
A more known sonnet, though is the one that we had to do in our Form Five, the Sonnet 18 which goes like TRACY had sent before (same poem huh..)
Now, compare it to this poem, The Penny Black by a certain John Foster which goes like this:-
This is my best stamp
And it's the most valuable
Because my Grandad
Gave it to me last summer
On the day before he died.
I was asking my friend (the most sentimental one heh..) the other day, on how people pick the poems that are to be called beautiful. And well, I didn't get an answer. I have been wondering about what people mean when they say a poem is "beautiful".
Is it the way the poets insert imageries that are crazy difficult to interpret? The flowery words they use? The ability to rhyme words like "vassalage" with the word "embassage" (Sonnet 26)? The hidden meaning behind each and every single line? The skill to make a poem mean a whole different thing even when the poem seems straight-forward enough?What?
If I see the two poems above, and I don't know whom the poets are, I would say that the one by William Shakespeare is the beautiful one if asked by an expert poet or someone who interprets them or the people who view the works of Emily Dickinson (just viewed heh..), William Shakespeare himself and all those posh named ones as "beautiful". Why? Heh. 'cos it has words like dimm'd, untrimm'd, thou, thee and all the jazz.
And if (unfortunately) I'm asked why, well, I wouldn't be able to come up with the answer. I cannot simply give the reason I just gave. They'll look at me as if I'm absurd, not knowing how to appreciate the "fine arts" of these poets and the art of writing.
But if I'm asked, I'd choose the second one as the beautiful one.The reason: Simple, I understand every single line, every single word, and I can relate to it perfectly.
Honestly, I think know I'm very ignorant to the works of famous poets, since I don't bother finding out what they mean and can never, EVER understand what "beauty" they have in each poem. And I don't have the patience to go analysing each line, trying to figure the hidden meaning. AND I won't be able to ever call a poet clever just because he can use imageries, hyperboles, metaphors and blabla to twist a poem into something that goes far beyond my basic imagination. But still admired them, especially him --> William Shakespears.
So, if you EVER have the answer to my problem (that being my confusion on what is a beautiful piece and what is not) let me know ok?

Hi..good afternoon to you all. Here I want to share a special breathing therapy that might help you alot in daily life.This therapy is told from my aunty and I used to try it before,it is really effective for me,so I hope it can help you too.
Here about the therapy..We know that the nose has left and right side. We use both to inhale and exhale when we are breathing. Actually they are different and you would be able to feel the difference..The right side represents the sun,while the left side represent the moon.
During a headache, you can try to close your right nose and just use your left nose to breathe. In about 5 mins,then you will feel that your headache will be gone. If you feel tired,just reverse it which is close your left nose and breathe through your right nose. After a while, you will feel your mind is refreshed. I'm sure you all are doubting about is this true? haha.. Let me explain the more details here.. From the view of chinese, they believe that our body containing "sun" and "moon" gases or can be say is a type of energy inside there. So actually the right side of our nose is belongs to "hot" which is "sun",so it get heated up easily while left side is belongs to "cold". Most of the females breathe with their left noses,so they get "cooled off" faster. Thus,most of the guys breathe with their right noses,so they get worked up. Do you notice the moment we wake up,which side of our noses is breathes faster? Left or right? ? If left side is breathe faster,then you will feel tired. So, close your left nose and use your right nose for breathing, you will get refreshed quickly.
So all my friends, this will not take your much time to do it and it might help you for reduces your headache especially when the time rushing for assignment. haha.. So,why not give it a try?
Here end my comment,thanks for having a read for this.Have a nice day!^^
Hey there guys!
Its Merdeka day tomorrow!Merdeka Day is Malaysia’s celebration of Independence on August 31st. So here, I would like to wish all Malaysians especially my beloved lecturer, Miss Hanum and my classmates Happy Independent Day 52th.
Well, I think it’s great to share my memories about Merdeka Day celebrations in school. Actually my memory is blur – I think most probably we sang some patriotic songs and that was it.There were performances of patriotic songs and dance from the various major races.And instead of the uniform, students wore their respective traditional costumes – some wore their own, some wore costumes from other races. It was quite a sight that I had to grab that picture of it into my memories.
Also on Merdeka day always include the parade on TV, images of the flag, and the black and white profile of Tunku Abdul Rahman. For folks in Malaysia it is a public holiday and for all Malaysians, a perfect excuse to throw a great sleep! haha..
Well, truth be told, I’m not feeling the Merdeka mood too much. I wonder if it’s because everyone’s been focusing on the impending the holy month (well, it’s here now) Ramadhan that we’ve forgotten that it’s also Merdeka Month!
Sure, we hear Ministers talk about a low-key Merdeka Parade because of the fasting (I think they are all just scared of H1N1!) but I haven’t seen too many flags flying about yet, and cars seem to be flag free too.
Well, it’s a good thing then that my friend Miss X is such a patriotic person. I have always heard she sang patriotic songs in the bathroom. Maybe she must have got carried away haha.. sorry friend!

Good evening to everyone. In this post, I would like to share with you all about a person that I respect and love the most. She is my mother. For me, my mother is very cute, as she having a height just like her daughter. What I feel sad is, I haven’t inherited her fairness. But our relationship just that close.
My mother is a very hardworking woman. Although my father is working, but she always told us that as long as she can work, she will try her best to help my father to earn more money for us. This sentence really touches my heart. Her education stopped as she finished her Form 3 life. So she really hopes her children can study more than she expect. And now, me and my brother already step in university, it is just a consolation for her. We know that she is very proud of us.
Since I was a kid she teach me to calculate, reading, writing and so on. And she is the one who prepared exercise for me. In my childhood memory, that time she supposed to be busy with her housework, but still she will spend some times for me and my siblings. I still remember that I had asked her:” mum, why you want to prepared so many exercises for me? Isn’t that you are busy? Won’t you feel tired?” This was how my mum told me:” as long as I can help you in your study, I won’t feel tired. And you are my daughter, there is no reason bout why i help you.” At that time, I can’t really understand what she really mean, but as i finished the exercises that she gave, she will very happy.
When i step in secondary school, my mother can’t help me anymore, as our education become more difficult from her. There is one thing that she did for me, and i appreciate it a lot. It happened in my Form 3 year, the day tomorrow will be my PMR trial, there was lot of Geography’s chapter that i had not finish, then i decide to study till morning. When the clock was point to 3am, i wished to get a drink. When i opened my door, i saw my mother was working in dining room. When she saw me, she asked:” want to get some drink? Let me make for you.” I know that she wanted to accompany me to study, so as she working on her sewing, she would care of me too. I really appreciate what she did, as i know that she never work till such that late.
While waiting for my STPM result, i went to work at Kuala Lumpur as part timer for 4 month. But each month i will went back for a week to do some work. Before that she won’t let me work, as she said it is too dangerous for me, after i asked and asked, only she let me try it. Each time i came back, she will ask how my life at there was, how my friend was and so on. And she will cook my favourite food for me, because she knows that i won’t have time to get some good food at outside. For me, my mum is the best chief in the world. This is one of the reasons that i love to stay at home. But each time i went back there was a thing that i felt sad, that is, my mother’s hair were getting to turn to white colour. Means that, she was getting older.
My mother is a good listener too. I like to tell every single little thing to her, and she won’t feel bored of it. Any problem i faced, i would tell her. Because she told me that, although she may not help me in my problem, but she wish to know what her daughter thinking, and after i speak out, i will feel better too. To avoid her from worrying about me, i promised to tell her everything that happen in my life, and become a habit for me. This will enhance our relationship.
That is my mother. Everything she does is just for her children. She always thinks of our benefits before her. Here, I would like to say sorry to her for my previous fault. In future, I will try my best to let her have a wonderful life as to thanks what she did for me. This is the promise from me to her. I will bear in mind. I love you.
Thanks for reading.

Two months already. I have been here in UMP for two months already. I found that my lifestyle here becomes more and more unhealthy.
I used to sleep at 12 midnight at home. Whenever 11.30pm arrives, mum will say “It is very late now. Tomorrow you still have to go to school early in the morning. So you’d better go to bed early.”. Then I will end the conversation with my younger brother and prepare to go sleep.
But now, I am in UMP. My mum is not by my side. Nobody will ask me to go sleep early here. So starting from the week that I rushed for my application development workshop assignment, I had become an owl. Before passing up that assignment, I slept at about 3am for that few days. And I broke the record at the last day of it, which is 6am in the morning on Thursday. That day, my roommate and I looked dead, because we only slept for 1 hour on that day.
Then we decided to sleep earlier on the next day. But until today which is 30/08/09, we slept at almost 4am every day. I understand that it is not good for us to sleep late. But do not know why we still would not go to bed on time. Maybe this is because our parents are not here to guard us, so we become unbridled.
Just like what we said when I chatted with my friends, “Lack of sleep will shorten up our life span.”. Besides it will also decrease our attention in class and affect our studies. Furthermore, we will also get sick easily if we do not have a healthy body. So I hope that I can live a normal and healthy life but not like an owl which work at night and sleep at the day time. Haha..
Thanks for reading my comment. All the best and take care~
Chernobyl the past that haunt, future unknown, and presently feared
Assalamualaikum and good afternoon…
When the nuclear reactor of Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant failed on 26 April 1986, I wasn’t born yet at that time. And if I remember correctly my father and mother was having their wedding on that year, and 2 years later on 23 February 1988, I was born.
Now the name Chernobyl is known as one of the worst case scenarios that can happen if a nuclear reactor failed to work, and all the contingency plan has gone down the drain. And I’m citing this accident not because I hate nuclear technology, but because it’s one of the incidents that had open eyes of many. It changes the life of many of its population especially those who lived in Chernobyl and the nearest town Pripyat. Many died because they are not aware of the dangers of radiation, thousands lost their home and unable to return back, most livestock and pet are left because they thought it will be for a while and city that once flourish with people are left like ghost town.
In the past “The Shelter” or in media dubbed as sarcophagus was build to further reduce the amount of radiation leaked out, now as time passed by the protection is getting weaker because of time and the radiation material that was left inside. The long term effect of the Chernobyl accident would mean that at least it will take about 600 years until the area are fully safe and another 48000 years to make sure that all the radiation has died.
In many games and movie you still can see the soviet era houses and building survive, but not much can be said for nature. The pine forest within 4 kilometer vicinity of the nuclear reactor turn ginger brown and died, some said that the radioactive material has bleached chlorophyll out of the plant. There are cases where animal and plant has mutated, but no scientific prove is yet to be found and specimen of mutated animal or plant yet to be retrieved. But most of the stories are told by those who have been inside the ‘The Zone’.
The present Chernobyl is still under heavy reconstruction, the maintenance of “The Shelter” or sarcophagus is still in their way. Present Chernobyl or sometime called “The Zone” are now quite, only authorize person are allowed, visitor are being monitor and we can visit it only during the day. Some of the elder has moved in to “The Zone” though government official didn’t support their decision, fearing health problem to those who stay for a long period of time in one of the most radioactive place in the planet. Still some of them feel the connection with the place that once been their home.
As a conclusion people live through mistake, a wrong decision may haunt, but taking lesson and not repeating from it is the biggest wisdom that we can achieved.

Assalamualaikum wbt and very good evening,
I'm Nurul Ain Ahmed CD09045 wanna to share my tought on Love In Campus (just my thought not in my experience hehe..)
Love life in campus is a very different experience. It is complex and often confusing. Sometimes, people might get the feeling that they are almost in love but actually it might be just an infatuation. Hence most relationships are temporary. Though it is not surprising that couples who fall in love in college develop committed relationships that last.
Love in Campus may develop because the youth is in search of new long lasting relationships with their peers. Young people who co relate with each other, generally tend to form a group and slowly fall in love with a particular person whom they are attracted too.
Campus festivals, peer pressure and various other factors bring them closer but only on the surface. Very few college life romances last for years or forever. Youngsters usually want to be free spirits and emotional hangups are strictly not their cup of tea.
Campus youngsters have different perspectives on relationships which are usually based on what they watch in movies. However, their understandings evolve as they mature. In college, it is mostly about physical attraction. In life, eventually, they start looking at the inner qualities of a person. Understanding and friendship is mostly based on the compatibility factor.
Love in campus is about having fun. Dating can be a great way to have a good time and to go to places and do fun-filled activities. Dating and chatting is a way of having fun and this keeps most of the students occupied. They want to do interesting activities together.
Dating is also a part of peer pressure. Teenagers want to fit in so if their friends are dating, they too plunge into it without thinking twice. On line dating, hanging out in pubs and discotheques is what people prefer at the campus life stage.
Love and the effect of falling in love adds security and emotional richness to our lives. Love helps us feel needed and secure. Love in college makes the college youth feel secure and bonded in a love relationship.
That's all,thank for reading.
P/S: I'm single!

Application Development Workshop. This is one of the subjects that I have to study. 9/7/2009 was the date that I first hear the name. My first response was: what is that? Is it hard? This subject is taught a cute lecturer. She briefed us that the subject is to train us how to do an interface and code the system to run successfully. Once again there were lots of question marks that fly above my head. What is interface? What is code?
My first exercise was on 13/7/2009. After the exercise, I tend to know what is interface. Interface is just like a board that we need to design by using, button, label, text box and so on for a system. We also can change the background to be more attractive. It is kind a interesting thing. As for the code, I still very blur about the coding things. On that day, I just copy the coding from my friends, and it really run successfully. But I felt a bit guilty, as it was not done by me.
Day by day, exercise by exercise, lab sheet by lab sheet, I’m getting more understood on how to do a coding for a system. For an example, the easiest one, to close an interface, we code at the “close” button with: Me. Close (). Am I correct? Haha… Actually, this was the first coding that I learn. For sure there are others simple coding that I remember.
On 20/8/2009, we were reminded that we have to pass up the first assignment of our semester by next Thursday. At the moment, i was shocked, because I had forgotten about the assignment. Then I started to think of the idea that I suppose to do. Then I start to design my interface at 23/8/2009. There were 8 interfaces I had designed. After that I continued with coding. This was the most difficult part. While doing the interface, I face many kind of errors. After I asked my roommates and friends, I tend to make it. That is why we need friends.^^ To run the system successfully, I also will changed some of my interface to make it in easier way. Once we change the interface, there are lots of things that have to change too, such as the properties.
This assignment really takes us a long time to finish it. But when the system can run successfully, it is a greatest consolation for us. By doing this assignment, I tend to know more about what Application Development Workshop actually is. I also could learn many kind of coding that is out of my expectation. It is really awesome. So, there is something inside it that can catch my interest. And there is getting less of question marks above my head. I will try to learn more about it, as I scared I will forget the basic, practice make perfect.^^
Thank you.^^

Last night, my roommate told us about a place that she had visited. That’s Malacca. She said that she had been there twice. It is a historical state which is full of cultural legacy. According to what she said, it is very worth that to go there for a trip. She showed us the pictures that she took during her trip there.
The laksa in her picture looked very tasty. Suddenly I realized that I have not eaten laksa for a long time already. Suddenly I miss the sour smell of laksa so much. Besides, there are photos on satay celup which makes me mouth-watering too. She said Malacca is also famous for it, and Chicken Rice Ball is another dish popular with domestic Chinese tourists, so we must go to have a try if we go Malacca.
Moreover, I was exclaimed when saw the picture she took in front of Dataran Pahlawan. She said that it is unlike other shopping malls, you will feel different when you step out from the mall. I think maybe this is why it becomes part of the Malacca Central Historical District.
Then the next thing that attracts me is the karaoke there. She said it only cost her less than RM10 when she went there with friends. I was so surprised to hear that because it cost me almost RM20 to go for karaoke in Ipoh even though I only paid for the student price.
Wish that I could have a chance to have a trip there soon. =) Thanks for reading.

Title : Literature and its Importance
It's "the art of written works". That's the meaning of literature from Wikipedia. We did learn in secondary school about literature, and for me it's the easiest part in English paper.
We learn literature, we learn about Shakespeare and his awesome sonnets, about short stories, about the Pencil who recently been adapted in live screen.
But, do we concern about its importance?
In my opinion, since I love literature much, literature is one of the easiest and enjoyable way to learn history. I admit, I really hate learning history. But, most of Malay Literature are in form of history. "Hikayat" and all related to that, I do enjoy read it~ That's what importance of literature, it become a platform for us to understand history.
Literature also have something to do with music and songs. We begin to create song from learning the literature, because I guest the way a lyric is produced exactly the same as a poet create a poem. Even, some of the singers using poem in their songs.
Other than that, we can see literature do produce good civilization. But, it's on the past. Nowadays, to find a group of people who love literature is 50-50 impossible. It might exist, but it just minority.
In the nutshell, there are so many importance of literature that yet we don't ever want to discover. Influences of new technologies and development in thinking, are some of the factors which blocking it. So, the best way is to learn it through education. So that, "literature" won't be forgotten in the future.
The Internet is not just one thing; it's a collection of things - of numerous communications networks that all speak the same digital language.

Assalamualaikum and good morning…
There’s a joke about the internet, and ironically it’s quite famous in the internet; “internet is a series of tubes”. And these series of tube has existed since early October 1969, and has become a vast place ever since for information and telecommunication exchange happens. But as the history goes on there’s a lot of incident involving user misuse this application and cause a lot of problem to other user. Hacking is a term that is use in the early 1950’s and 1960’s to describe a creative tinkering to improve performance, and as the year gone by hacker now have a negative impression among user and business alike.
Hacker is a known security threat to personal user and business as data worth more than billion of dollar is traded daily in the internet, and it’s also related to national security as some of the most top secret document is transferred stored online. Hacker also the master of creating many security risks to achieve their goals, one of the most popular one is virus. Though there’s been recorded that some virus is produced unintentionally, there are virus that target specific type of user. Like its biological counterpart, computer virus will render the system that’s been infected with problem.
So how do we protect ourselves from both of this problem?
The answer is simple, first is to install an anti-virus program and frequently update the virus definition. From my experience and others with virus, most anti-virus program is the first line of defense from virus and since most of anti-virus is equipped with its own firewall, it’s a double edge sword for a computer defense. Second is to turn on the firewall just in case you’re surfing on internet connections that don’t provide much protection from outside intruder. The last advice is to steer away from website that is not trusted, as sometime website cache also have viruses, Trojan or worm hidden.

Good morning everyone. Just now I have received an email with the title “The 7% - Lessons Life Taught Me”. I found that some of the sentences there are quite significant. So I would like to share it with you here. It was written by Regina Brett, 90 years old, of the Plain Dealer.
1. Life isn’t fair, but it’s still good.
2. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.
3. Your job won’t take care of you when you are sick. Your friends and parents will. Stay in touch.
4. You don’t have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.
5. Cry with someone. It’s more healing than cry alone.
6. Make peace with your past so it won’t screw up the present.
7. Don’t compare your life to others. You have no idea what their journey is all about.
8. If a relationship has to be a secret, you shouldn’t be in it.
9. Everything can change in the blink of an eye. But don’t worry, God never blink.
10. Take a deep breath. It calms the mind.
11. Get rid of anything that isn’t useful, beautiful or joyful.
12. Whatever doesn’t kill you really does make you stronger.
13. It’s never too late to have a happy childhood. But the second one is up to you and no one else.
14. Burn he candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie. Don’t save it for a special occasion. Today is special.
15. Be eccentric now. Don’t wait for old age to wear purple.
16. The most important sex organ is the brain.
17. No one is in charge of your happiness but you.
18. Always choose life.
19. Forgive everyone everything.
20. What other people think of you is none of your business.
21. Time heals almost everything. Give time time.
22. However god or bad situation is, it will change.
23. Don’t take yourself so seriously. No one else does.
24. Don’t audit life. Show up and make the most of it now.
25. Growing old beats the alternative – dying young.
26. Your children get only one childhood.
27. All that truth matters in the end is that you loved.
28. Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere.
29. If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else’s, we’d grab ours back.
30. Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.
31. The best is yet to come.
32. No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.
33. Yield.
34. Life isn’t tied with a bow, but it’s still a gift.
35. Friends are the family that we choose for ourselves.
Among these sentences, there are few of them which I like the most. I fully agree that “life isn’t fair, but it’s still good”. And I think that “the most important sex organ is the brain” is an essential advice for the teenagers nowadays. Last but not least, the last sentence is a bit profound, but I like it too.
Actually there are still some sentences in the email that I didn’t type it out here. I am so sorry for that. This is because I do not understand it very well and I feel that these 35 sentences are the best.
Anyway, wish you all enjoy your lives, my dear friends. ^^ Have a nice day.

Title : Thought for Today
"There are a lots way to bring joy, happiness, peace, laughter, hope and comfort into your life, and they cost absolutely nothing. There are free. There is no charge."
This thought is from Sandra Magsamen. She is the author of article, "31 Ways to Get Happiness- for Free" in Oprah.com.
When I read this, I wonder, if she right, since there is still "Money can buy anything". For me, money do important, and of course with wealth, you can afford anything. But, those things that you affordable to have are just by sight. Everything that are temporary, and they will soon damaged or vanished in front of our eyes.
But, happiness, love and those inner-souls that we can visualize, are the things that what money cannot buy. Even you are the millionaire with thousands cash in the bank , you still cannot buy a happiness. And I guest that what's happen to some of the so-called "bachelors" or "rich-people", they have wealth, they have looks, they have physically everything. But, those people lack of happiness always have depressions problems caused by lack-happiness. They can't afford to buy peace in mind.
So, do wealth important? Since it can't buy happiness. Do we need it? I said yes! Wealth also important but not in our priority list. We need wealth as we need happiness.
What important is we know how to find both things. Both of them are important. Wealth keep us alive physically while happiness keep us live in soul and rationality.
Find happiness then you'll soon notice you had achieved wealth in happiness.

Hi good day to all. Today I would like to introduce a nice place to all of you.The place that I want to recommend here is i think both of us also know it as 'raintown' ~Taiping. Taiping is located at the north of Perak.It is a very nice ,peaceful and natural place.
Most of my mother side"s relatives including my grandmother also
stay at Taiping,so I can went to there at least one time for every year. I like to go there since I'm still small. I always hope that my family wiil move and stay at Taiping for permanetly. But seem this is quite hard to happen on me,so I had spend my two years of time to stay with my grandmother and study my form six at there.
What make me like Taiping very much?? This is because I like the natural view of Taiping,so here please allow me to introduce some of the nice places of Taiping to all of you. When you are standing whatever any places any corners in Taiping, you will see alots of green plants and mountains around of you.Then you will have a feeling like already been separated with outside world by the mountains. This is actually myself feeling when everytime I went to there.
The place that I most like is Lake Garden. It is also can be say as a green area state. This is because around of the Lake Garden,there are a lots of green plants, green field even the pond also green in colour.Besides that,it is also a good recreation place.There are many people like to jogging, cycling,doing other exercise at the big garden.During weekend,there are many people having a pinic with their family besides the lake.
The another place of Taiping that I would like to introduce to all of you is Maxwell Hill which is normally we know as "Bukit Larut".
When you reached at the peak of mountain,you will feel that like standing at a western country. This is because the air of Maxwell Hill there is fresh and abit cold. At the peak of Maxwell Hill,that is a garden there which have planting many tpyes of flowers. If you are luckly at that time,you will have a chance to see the tulip flower. This is a good chance for malaysian to take a see of tulip!^^
Besides that,Taiping also famous as a their history. There are many historical buildings such like Malaysia's first prison,first railway station,first market and so on. I like to see the design of old buildings there because it is uique and bringing their own culture there.
Thus,you also can eat that many delicious food at Taiping,such like 'popiah', chicken rice and so on. Taiping really a nice place to travel. If you are able,you can take a time to have a trip at Taiping and feeling the natural view of it.

Title : Fans and artists, do they have any borders?
Evening Miss Hanum. I'm sorry if this article I wrote doesn't even related to any of your requirements. Just this is my opinion.
Every artists have their own collections of fans. From the children at the young age, to the old generations. Fans are the one who help their artists on boosting up their popularity. The more fans, the higher the popularity.
For artists, fans are the precious things, while for fans, artists are the idols that they love and care so much. Some of the artists love to received so much care and love from their fans. Souvenirs, pictures, handcrafts and other things, they received them all and even used them.
For fans, they are willing to do anything for their idols. Buying things, vote for their awards, supports in all angles. But, are there "borders" between fans and artists?
In my opinion, fans and artists should have borders in between.
Let's take example of Korean artists. Because I guest among all artists in global, Korean artists have been adored so much by fans around the world, or in the other word. Addict.
For example, recently one of the most HIT Asian-Korean group, TVXQ is facing conflict issue with the management company, SM Company. Rumors spread around that they will be disband if the company refused to overwrite the contract and drop the "exclusivity clause" which 60% of the profits from their album sales and concerts will be go into company account.
The fans considered this as "unfair" while they are not willing their own idols to get disband, they do everything
to bring them back. Even they willing to make a memorandum to the government, National Human Rights to protect their idols right.
That's one of the current case that shows how determine those fans on caring the artists. But, is it necessary? It seems like it become a biggest issue and affect the world in general. Every fans seems to be ignoring other more important things caused their focus just on the artists.
That's why I said "borders" should exists among them. I never mention that fans cannot support them, but if the artists themselves choose to disband, what that have to do with the fans? Artists also humans. And of course they have rights. If for example, case like above can't be solved and the final solution is to disband the group and if they absolutely agree, why not the fans?
Another case that I think show artists and fans should have "borders", is a case related to abusive fans. Yes, they become addicted to the artists until they want to have them for their own. That's similar to abuse. Artists have their own privacy, and I guest as a fan, we should respect that. Artists are not toys.
They have life. They want to be love by fans not be addicted by fans. That are two different things.
In a nut shell, "border" doesn't mean that fans cannot take care of their artists, they can, but those should have some procedures. Respects. That what important.

When I was 16years old, I and my family have a trip to visit Pulau Redang. That is a wonderful, peaceful, and relax place for the tourist. Almost the activities at there is swimming, snorkeling and diving. At there I have been heard a professional diver teach the ways of diving. He says if proper techniques you are not followed, the 20 or 30 years of coral growth will be endangered not through plundering but through sheer ignorance of correct procedures when diving. For divers, buoyancy control underwater is the major challenge. A common fault is wearing too many lead weights on their belts. When this happens there is the tendency to overcompensate by inflating the diving vests like hot air balloons. Then you end up swimming like a seahorse. As a result, you will be breaking the corals with your fins without even knowing it.
So,I would like to share with you the correct procedure when diving and remind my friends please protect our coral which facing extinction.

Nowadays, everybody is busy with their own job, and some of them have no time to prepare a healthy meal and just go for fast food or maybe just miss it. These are some of the causes that diseases attack human’s body.
I know about this by reading an email that I get form my friend. It states that, in Japan, it is very popular that everyone will drink water immediately after waking up. They believe that this method is good for reducing diseases. With the prove of scientific, it can 100% cure for some diseases.
Here is the step of water treatment:
1. As you wake up in the morning before brushing teeth, drink 4 x 160ml glasses of water
2. Brush and clean the mouth but do not eat or drink anything for 45 minute
3. After 45 minutes you may eat and drink as normal.
4. After 15 minutes of breakfast, lunch and dinner do not eat or drink anything for 2 hours
5. Those who are old or sick and are unable to drink 4 glasses of water at the beginning may commence by taking little water and gradually increase it to 4 glasses per day.
6. The above method of treatment will cure diseases of the sick and others can enjoy a healthy life.
While the following list gives the number of days of treatment required to cure, control and reduce main diseases:
1. High Blood Pressure (30 days)
2. Gastric (10 days)
3. Diabetes (30 days)
4. Constipation (10 days)
5. Cancer (180 days)
6. TB (90 days)
7. Arthritis patients should follow the above treatment only for 3 days in the 1st week, and from second week onwards – daily.
It is very easy, just some glasses of water, then we can own a healthy body. So why don’t we try it, as drinking water is no harm for us. Water also can help in excretion system. Before I end my post, I would like to stress that, the water that we need is warm water but not cool water. So, let us start it by tomorrow.^^

Hello, Miss Aisyah Hanum, I read an article yesterday night. The title name is”Global Warming”. On Feb. 2, 2007, the United Nations scientific panel studying climate change declared that the evidence of a warming trend is "unequivocal," and that human activity has "very likely" been the driving force in that change over the last 50 years. The last report by the group, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, in 2001, had found that humanity had "likely" played a role.
The addition of that single word "very" did more than reflect mounting scientific evidence that the release of carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping gases from smokestacks, tailpipes and burning forests has played a central role in raising the average surface temperature of the earth by more than 1 degree Fahrenheit since 1900. It also added new momentum to a debate that now seems centered less over whether humans are warming the planet, but instead over what to do about it. In recent months, business groups have banded together to make unprecedented calls for federal regulation of greenhouse gases. The subject had a red-carpet moment when former Vice President Al Gore's documentary, "An Inconvenient Truth," was awarded an Oscar; and the Supreme Court made its first global warming-related decision, ruling 5 to 4 that the Environmental Protection Agency had not justified its position that it was not authorized to regulate carbon dioxide.
The greenhouse effect has been part of the earth's workings since its earliest days. Gases like carbon dioxide and methane allow sunlight to reach the earth, but prevent some of the resulting heat from radiating back out into space. Without the greenhouse effect, the planet would never have warmed enough to allow life to form. But as ever larger amounts of carbon dioxide have been released along with the development of industrial economies, the atmosphere has grown warmer at an accelerating rate: Since 1970, temperatures have gone up at nearly three times the average for the 20th century.
The latest report from the climate panel predicted that the global climate is likely to rise between 3.5 and 8 degrees Fahrenheit if the carbon dioxide concentration in the atmosphere reaches twice the level of 1750. By 2100, sea levels are likely to rise between 7 to 23 inches, it said, and the changes now underway will continue for centuries to come.

Greeting to all..is me,suet lee again. ^^ Here I would like share a true story that I just read it from an internet article.
This guy went out on a Saturday
night a few weeks ago to a party. He was having a good time and had
a couple of beers and some girl seemed to like him & invited him to go to another party. He quickly agreed & decided to go along with her.She took him to a party in some apartment and had sex. They continued to drink & even got involved with some drug. The next thing he knew, he woke up completely naked in a bathtub filled with ice. He looked down at his chest, which had 'CALL 999 or YOU'LL DIE' written on it with
lipstick. He saw a phone was on a stand next to the tub so he picked it up & dialled. He explained to the operator what the situation was & that he didn't know where he was, what he took, or why he was really calling. She advised him to get out of the tub. He did, and he appeared normal, so she told him to check his back. He did,and found two 9inch slits on his lower back. She told him to get back into the tub immediately, and they sent a rescue team over. Apparently, after being examined, he found out more that is his kidneys were stolen...They were worth RM30,000 each on the back market.Now this guy is currently in the hospital on a life support, awaiting a spare kidney.
After reading this story,I feel that the word now is abit terrible. It will happend many kind of matter that which is we unexpected. I got a feeling like we are now in the alongside of danger. We do not know that may be we will be the next victim. So I would like to remind all of my freind here,please be aware at any of times, do not talk to stranger when you are alone during that time. And gals,please take care of your own safety,so you might save from any kind of danger.
Take care of yourselves and also the people which is you caring about.Thank for your reading on this comment.

Hi, Miss Aishay..here I leave a comment about 'Literature and its Importance'. The poetry that always keep in my mind is “Life’s brief Candle” which is written by William Shakespear.
"To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day
To the last syllable of recorded time,
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing."
The themes of this poem are human life is short. Our life is like a flickering candle blowing in the wind. It may get blown out at any time. Life is only temporary. It is a journey to a dark end. Life is overcast by the darkness that lies within our hearts. Life is also sometimes meaningless. Because of life is short, we must make the most out of our lives because life is short. We must always have a purpose in life and we must do good to others. Life will be more meaningful this way. Life should not be seen or interpreted the way Macbeth did. Macbeth was an ambitious army general who had broken both the natural laws and moral laws of society by murdering his cousin, the king and palace guest, King Duncan. If we do wrong, then we will not have the peace of mind to enjoy the fruits of our labour. In this poem I have learnt the important moral value.

Good day,
I am checking my hotmail now, as i go through it, I found that there is a very interesting email. It is special for people who spend long hours at desks, looking at the computer screen. What i think is us. As we are computer science student, of course any project that we do must be related to computer. Am i correct? So, all of you should have a read to my post.
Our eyes are one of the sensitive organs in our body. Our eyes will feel tired if we look at the screen for whole day. There will side effect for our eyes too, as there is radioactive from the computer.
So, we must take good care of our own eyes. According to the email, there is an exercise for our eyes that suggested by a specialist doctor. He name it as 20-20-20.
Step I :-
After every 20 minutes of looking into the computer screen, turn your
head and try to look at any object placed at least 20 feet away. This
changes the focal length of your eyes, a must-do for the tired eyes.
Step II :-
Try and blink your eyes for 20 times in succession, to moisten them.
Step III :-
Time permitting of course, one should walk 20 paces after every 20 minutes
of sitting in one particular posture. Helps blood circulation for the entire body.
Let us follow the step to take care of our eyes. They say that eyes are mirror of soul, so do take care of them, they are priceless......

Good evening,my coursemate and Miss Aishay...
Do you knoe what the useful of green tea in our life?
Green tea is being recognized today for its health benefits. Fifteen to thirty percent of it is polyphenols consisting of anticarcinogens which helps to strengthen blood vessel walls.
This helps to lower the chances of getting mouth or gastric cancer. Studies carried out in Japan showed that, smokers or non-smokers, stand a lower chance of getting cancer if they drink green tea.
Green tea also lower blood pressure and increase blood flow to the heart. In this way, it prevents the blood from clumping together and forming clots that can lead to stroke or heart attack.
It prevents dental decay by inhibiting the bacteria streptococcus mutants which are responsibilities for plaque formation. Some people have the habit of consuming tea after a meal, leaving the mouth feeling fresh and clean.
This is the advantages of using green tea.
a)helps to strengthen blood vessel walls.
b)helps to lower the chances of getting mouth or gastric cancer
c)lower blood pressure and increase blood flow to the heart.
d)prevents dental decay

Oh my god. If you have drinking sugar cane drinks please pay attention and spend few minute to read my short article that I have read when I checking my email.
Health News - About Sugar Cane Drinks
A friend whose father works for the government health
inspection passed on his info. Their job is to inspect all
hawkers, their cooked food, their store hygiene, etc. They
found sugar cane juice has the highest content of bacteria
among all food. In fact, it has exceeded the set limit.
Hence, these guys had to find out why. They went round all
sugar cane stores and watched the way the hawkers handled
their sugar cane, wash their glasses, their entire
procedure. But they couldn't find the problem.
One day, they stayed till closing time and discovered some
shocking facts! Whenever, the hawkers closed their stores,
they would wash the floor with detergent.. As we know, the
remaining sugar canes will be placed at the back of the
store, vertically standing and as sugar canes are very
porous, they tend to absorb whatever liquid around them.
Besides the soapy water, the dirt on hawkers' boots,
cats' urine, etc, will all be absorbed?? Now, whenever I
eat at a hawker centre, I would warn all my friends about
this and of course I stopped drinking my favorite sugar cane
juice.
A friend, who loved sugar cane juice, was pregnant. She was
always drinking sugar cane juice. Anyway, one day she
miscarried and the fetus was already like 6 or 7 months old,
I think. When the doctors did an autopsy to find out why all
of a sudden the fetus had died inside her, they found traces
of some chemical substance, which was found in cat urine...
Large traces of it.
While it would not be able to harm adults, it was extremely
toxic to babies, what more a fetus? So they tried to
determine how this cat urine thing could have ended up in
the fetus. This meant that it had to be digested by the
mother, right? And the only logical conclusion they could
come up with was that since these sugar cane juice stall
holders just leave the canes lying around on the wet and
dirty floor, it would not be impossible to think that stray
cats could have peed on those sugar canes or near those
sugar canes.. So think carefully the next time you order that
favorite sugar cane juice!

Good evening everyone. I checked my email just now. And I found the email with the subject “Meaningful Article to Read”. It talks about the filial piety from a son towards his old mother.
The story says the son sent his mother to the old folk’s home because his wife dislikes her and he also felt that it was a troublesome to take care of her. But at last he recalled how his mother treated him when he was small and rushed back to the old folk’s homes to bring his mother home. Sorry because I cannot share the story in detail with you here. But it was really touching story.
As we grow up, our parents are getting older and older, their movement becomes slower and slower.
They always give us the best things. But we will only think of them when we need them.
When we were small, they spent a lot of time teaching us how to use a spoon or chopsticks to eat, tie shoelace, button up the shirt, comb our hair and ... They held our hands and taught us walk, taught us sing children’s songs, tried hard to answer our weird questions…
But when they grow old, when they are not able to walk anymore, when they cannot speak clearly, when they cannot eat themselves, when they are not able to take care of themselves, we need to treat them well. There is a proverb in Chinese, “the tree may prefer calm but the wind does not subside, the son may want to look after the parent but they are no longer in the world”. So we must treat them well and take good care of them before it is too late.
Thanks for reading. =)

Do you know the top 5 cancer causing food are..
Can you guess?
1.Hot dogs
They are high in nitrates,the Cancer Prevention Coalition advises that children eat no more than 12 hot dogs a month.If you can not live without hot dogs,buy those made without sodium nitare.
2.Processed meats and bacon
Also high in the same sodiun nitrates found in Hot dogs, bacon, and other processed meats raise the risk of heart disease.The saturated fat in bacon also contributes to cancer.
3.Doughnuts
Doughnuts are cancer-causing double trouble.First,they made with white flour,sugar,and hydrogenated oils. then fried at high temperatures.
4.French fries
Like doughnuts,French fries are made with hydrogenated oils and then fried at high temperatures.They also contain cancer-causing acryl amides which occur during the frying process.
5.Chip, crackers and cookies
All are usually made with white flour and sugar.Even the ones whose labels claim to be free of trans-fats generally contain small amounts of trans-fats.
Please take care yourself do not eat too much of food that I have list out on the above.If you want to life in a healthy life style.

This is the way that brain damaging
habits.
People who do not take breakfast are going to have a loer blood sugar level.This lead to an insufficient supply of nutrients to the brain causing brain degeneration.
People who smoking will causes mutiple brain shrinkage and may lead to Alzheimer disease.
High sugar comsumption.Too much sugar will interrupt the absorption o proteins and nutrients causing malnutrition and may interfere with brain development.
Besides that,air pollution also is one of the causes.The brain is the largest oxygen consumer in our body.Inhaling polluted air decreases the supply of oxygen to the brain, bringing about a decrease in brain efficiency.
Head covered while sleeping.Sleeping with the head covered increases the concentration of carbon dioxide and decrease concentration of oxygen that may lead to brain damaging effect.
Do take care about your health.

Title : A friend's confession
Dear Miss Hanum,
I just feel bored comments on heavy topics, so for this post, I'll share with you and to all viewers, a song that really touched my heart. A Korean Ballad song, by 2AM, "A friend's confession".
Actually, it is a song from a guy dedicates to a girl. About a friend confession to his friend (who is a girl) who he loved so much. He tried to tell what his heart felt, but he know, the girl he admired so much is belong to someone else heart, although that guy is hurting his girl a lot. The guy (in the song) want to take care of her, but he know he just can remains as friend of her. So, he just decide to put his feeling aside, while be someone who the girl can cry on when had a problem.
So, this is the lyric...
It’s been a while
since my heart has been changing,
since I’ve been dealing with it lonesome..
every time you came back,
I hated the guy that made you cry
I’d rather protect you,
although I don’t know if it will make it better…
This time I’ll hold you and love you
is what I thought
Baby, come to me now
And be my lady
I’ve watched you for too long
I stood there with no words,
hiding my pitiful heart.
As a friend, to remain as friends,
I had to push the confessions down my throat
But now I’ll confess to you,
I love you…
You hold my hand and tell me you only have me
Keeping me as a friend,
you say it’s a blessing
Whenever you say let’s never change,
I had to push my feelings down
It might be best if I protect you,
not knowing if it will be better
I kept hearing it but I kept cool
I was too scared to lose you, but…
Baby (Baby) Come to me now (Come to me)
And be my lady (lady)
I’ve watched you for too long
I stood there with no words,
hiding my pitiful heart (No)
As a friend (Your friend), to remain as friends (I know),
I had to push the confessions down my throat (The overflowing words)
That confession (confession) I had to hold it in (I couldn’t say it)
But now I’ll confess to you,
I love you…
My comment : This song do have strong lyric, plus their powerful ballad voices, the song is really sweet and calm to hear.

Good day,
There is an article that I read. It is talking about “How to Eat Healthy”. People nowadays have no time to prepare or plan what to eat for their next meal. They just wish to get some simple food quickly and continue with their work again. The main choice for them will be fast food. As we all know, fast food actually not healthy for us.
On the internet, there is lot of the articles that talk about the same title. In this article, it mentions step by step about how to eat healthy.
1. Determine how many calories that your body need to function each day.
This is because, more calories are suitable for naturally bigger people and fewer calories for smaller people. Also consider that the more muscle mass you have, the more calories you need to function.
2. Don’t fear fatty foods.
It's important to choose the right kinds of fats: Most animal fats and some vegetable oils are high in the kind of fats that raise your LDL cholesterol levels; the bad cholesterol. So, before that you need to consume fat from foods for your body to function correctly.
3. Carbohydrates are important
You need to eat foods high in carbohydrates since they are your body's main source of energy. The trick is to choose the right carbohydrates. Simple carbohydrates like sugar and processed flour are quickly absorbed by the body's digestive system.
4. Eat larger meals early in the day.
Your metabolism slows down towards the end of the evening and is less efficient at digesting foods. That means more of the energy stored in the food will be stored as fat and your body won't absorb as many nutrients from the meal. Try eating a medium-sized meal for breakfast, a large meal for lunch, and a small meal for dinner. That keeps your body fueled for the whole day without dumping a large amount of food into your stomach, which your body might have a hard time digesting.
5. Don't skip breakfast!
Research shows that people who skip breakfast are usually fatter than those who eat a well balanced breakfast. Although you might not feel hungry first thing in the morning, if you skip breakfast you will feel extra hungry come lunch time, making you more prone to overeating for your afternoon meal. For the rest of the day after you skip breakfast, your body will store up most of the energy you get from food, instead of allowing you to burn it, in anticipation of food scarcity. Not only will this cause you to be tired during the day when your body isn't using the food that you ate, but the extra energy stored up will result in weight gain.
6. Make eating fun.
Have fun not only with the food, but with the meal. Eating with family and friends makes the meal more satisfying than eating in front of the TV or in the car on the way home from work. You will also eat more slowly when enjoying your meal, which gives your body time to feel full before you burst a button.
These are the step of how to eat healthy. Eating healthy will give you some health benefits, but you won't achieve the full benefits possible unless you exercise. So, let us think about our healthy.
Thanks for reading.^^

I would like to share a new that I had read before.
Two girls went into the toilet, they were gang rape by a few man believe to be Malays or Bangladeshi. These animals put the pail & mop outside the toilet so that nobody will enter the toilet assuming cleaning is going on. They open all the water taps so that no one can hear anything from outside... One of the victims is now suffering from mental problem.
A lady accompanied by boyfriend to the ladies, boyfriend was waiting outside the toilet. In such a short period of time she was rape by a few men. This boyfriend was very sad and angry, he disclosed the incident in the net... All the above happened in KLCC near cinema toilet...
Ladies!

Good day to Miss Hanum and all my coursemates. I would like to share with you an article that I read just now. Its title is “Study in Local University is ‘The Trip of Life’”. According to the article, the author used to study in local university.
According to the passage, the copy institution is very famous in local university. It says that we may not need to for the lecture as we can borrow notes from seniors and coursemates. Clues will also given by the lecturers before examinations. For the thesis, we also do not need to go library to look for the information as we can have a look on the past year thesis from all the universities and then our own thesis will be produced easily.
The second point in the article states that there are 4 kinds of students in local university. The author said that whenever a new semester starts, the most important thing that the students care about is whether the PTPTN loan has been save into their bank account or not. The students in local university can be categorized into 4 types. The first type is those who always play around, such as hanging around in the night market, mamak stalls, going Pulau Redang, playing balls and many other trips. The second type called PBSM which stands for “Persatuan BalikRumah Setiap Minggu”. That means the second types of students are those who go home every weekend. The third type is direct sellers who always tell themselves that they can earn money in the university. And the last type is the VIP of the library.
The author also said that university is unlike secondary school. Sometimes the schedule in university is full, but sometimes is very free. It is very deserted during weekends. And whenever the festivals are around the corner, students will back to their hometown as soon as they could.
After reading that article, I think that I will also face the same situation soon as I agree to what the author said. They are so many kinds of people in the university. It is just like a mini world here. Anyway, hope all of us can enjoy our campus life here. =)

Hi,greeting to all and miss Hanum again. Now I would like to share about the literature that i had been read and what I had learnt through the literature.
I still remenber the literature's novel that I had readed it during Form 2. The title of novel is "The Phantom of the Opera" which is authorised by Gaston Leroux. I believe that most of you also had been heard about this story before. This story is quite touching and meaningful for me,that why until now I still can remenber each of the characters clearly. Here I would like give at a short introduction of this novel for those who are still not yet read about this novel.
The Phantom of the Opera lives under a famous opera living a life of total darkness. The main character,Erik, is a romantic figure whose appeal reaches across different cultures and times. He is a sensitive soul, an accomplished composer and musician whose great unfinished work, Don Juan Triumphant, is described as breathtakingly beautiful by the one person he allows to hear it; he is an object of pity, whose face has been disfigured from birth, causing him to hide behind a silk mask; and he is hopelessly in love with a chorus girl,Christine Daae whom he can never seriously hope will love him back. But Christine Daae have fall in love with the handsome Vicount Raoul de Changy. At the same time, Erik is a dangerous, menacing figure, lurking in the hidden catacombs beneath the opera house and blackmailing those who will not bow to his whims. He can hear things said in privacy and can create catastrophes that might or might not be the accidents that they seem to be.
For the overall,this story is say about the love triangle between the phantom, the young peasant-born opera singer he loves, and the dashing viscount whom she loves, was written as a thriller, and it continued to excite the imaginations of readers into the twenty first century.
After reading this story,i have a thought that love actually is no limitted and it is greater . A people can be happy or sad even do evrythings that unexpected just because of love. So,please appreciate the people you love,and don't try hurt or harm them.
Here end my comment and thaks for your reading.

Good day,
As I look at the calendar, it was already two and a half month that I study in University Malaysia Pahang. The time is passing so fast.
Since the first week I step in UMP, there is lots of people asking me, how do I feel when stay in UMP. At the first, I didn’t have any special feeling, as it was just the beginning of my life in UMP. But now, there were many kind of feeling that went through. Let me state it one by one.
After the orientation week, we started our study. There are 6 subjects that we need to cover in this semester. Except for English Technique and Mathematics, all of the subjects were very strange for me. Even after our lecturer briefed us, I also couldn’t understand what those subjects really are. At that moment, I felt scare. I started to doubt that whether I can carry on this course or not, as I not really expert in computer. But day after day, with the help of my friends and myself as well, I tend to know the basic things of those subjects. I wish I can know more about them and “be best friends” with them.
There is one thing that I feel glad with and I will always do. It is, my best friend is studying the same university with me. Actually, I never think or imagine that she will get the same University with me. But it is fate now. Besides that, I also get to know with my lovely and funny roommate. With the presence of them, my room full with happiness. When we were tension with our assignment, homework or project, we will scream together to release our tension. It is really help. After screamed, we can continue with our work easily. Why don’t you all have a try? And sometimes, we will sing together in the room. They are really sporting friends. While in the class, i also get to know with many friends in other races. What I feel happy is, they will try to help me whenever I face problem, especially in the coding problem. I really appreciate what they all taught for me. Sorry if I brought any problem for you all. I wish somehow I can help you too.^^
In the conclusion, there is not that worst to study in UMP. It is depends on how you enjoy your life. As for the study, we have to study hard, and try the best to understand what our lecturers had taught. As we are already a university study, there must be a bit different with previous life. We have to search everything by ourselves. So, let us fight for our future.
Thanks for reading^^

Good evening to everyone. Today is our national day, so let us celebrate this day with reading some article. First of all, what is national day? The National Day is a designated date on which celebrations mark the nationhood of a nation or non-sovereign country. In other word, Independence Day is a national day of Malaysia commemorating the independence of the Federation of Malaya from British colonial rule, celebrated on August 31. Some countries have more than one National Day. For example, Pakistan has three National Days, none of which is named the”National Day”. This signals the use of a ”class” of National Days, that are equally important in the foundation of the nation, and a ”class” of less important official public holidays. In 1956,the then prime minister of Malaysia tunku abdul rahman putra al-haj led a delegation to London to hold talks with the british government concerning independence for Malaya with first president of the Malayan Chinese Association (MCA) Tun Dato Sir Tan Cheng Lock and fifth President of Malaysian Indian Congress Tun V.T. Sambanthan. .The Malayan delegation, comprising of four representatives of the malay rulers and four alliance representatives, convinced the british government to set a date for independence:31st August 1957.Today we celebrating 52th national day, because of them.As Malaysia citizens we should respect and thanks to them.
The Federation of Malaysia, comprising the States of Malaya, North Borneo (later renamed Sabah), Sarawak and Singapore was to be officially declared on the date August 31, 1963, on the 6th anniversary of Malayan independence. However, it was postponed to September 16, 1963, mainly due to Indonesian and the Philippines' opposition to the formation of Malaysia. Nevertheless, North Borneo and Singapore declared sovereignty on August 31, 1963. Indonesian opposition later escalated to a military conflict. Indonesia considered Malaysia as a new form of colonization on the provinces of Sarawak and Sabah in the island of Borneo (bordering Kalimantan, Indonesia), which they laid claim on. To assure Indonesia that Malaysia was not a form of neo-colonialism, a referendum, organized by the United Nations, and the Cobbold Commission, led by Lord Cobbold, were formed to determine whether the people of Sabah and Sarawak wished to join Malaysia. Their eventual findings which indicated substantial support for Malaysia among the peoples of Sabah and Sarawak cleared the way for the final proclamation of Malaysia.
These are same information about our country and the national day.

Hello Miss Hanum and all my friends.
Just now I saw a big title states that “If You Are Computer User Who Use it More Than 4 Hours a Day, Read This”. As a computer science student, I may be using it hours per day. So I clicked on it and had a look on it.
It reminds us to shut down the computer in the noon, especially when we take nap. According to the medical report, those who use computer for 4-6 hours per day will get cancer 26% easier than a normal person. It says that shutting off the screen could not prevent the radiation.
Do you know how much is the computer radiation? Let the email tell us.
i. Keyboard – 1000V/m
ii. Mouse – 450V/m
iii. Monitor – 218V/m
iv. Motherboard – 170V/m
Prevent is better than cure. Do not let us to have the chance to regret after it happen. So, starting from now, we must do something to prevent us from becoming the victim of the computer radiation. Remember to shut down your computer before you go to sleep. And do not spend too much time on the computer as it is not the only thing in the world.
Thanks for reading.

Here i would like share with all of you that some tips of safety that might save your life,especially for the gals.
In daylight hours, refresh yourself of these things to do in an emergency situation.
1. Tip from Tae Kwon Do :
The elbow is the strongest point on your body. If you are close enough to use it, do!
2. Learned this from a tourist guide.
If a robber asks for your wallet and or purse, DO NOT HAND IT TO HIM.Toss it away from you,because chances are that he is more interested in your wallet or purse than you, and he will go for the wallet or purse.
"RUN LIKE MAD IN THE OTHER DIRECTION!"
3. If you are ever thrown into the trunk of a car, kick out the back tail lights and stick your arm out the hole and start waving like crazy.The driver won't see you, but everybody else will.
This has saved lives.
4. Women have a tendency to get into their cars after shopping, eating, working,etc, and just sit such like doing their chequebook, or making a list. 'DON'T DO THIS!' The predator will be watching you, and this is the perfect opportunity for him to get in
on the passenger side, put a gun to your head,and tell you where to go.
'AS SOON AS YOU GET INTO YOUR CAR ,
LOCK THE DOORS AND LEAVE.' If someone
is in the car with a gun to your head
"DO NOT DRIVE OFF!" DO NOT DRIVE OFF!
Instead gun the engine and speed into anything, wrecking the car. Your Air Bag will save you. If the person is in the back seat they will get the worst of it. As soon as the car crashes bail out and run.
5. ALWAYS take the elevator
instead of the stairs.Stairwells are horrible places to be alone and the perfect crime spot. This is especially true at NIGHT!
6. As women, we are always trying
to be sympathetic: Please stop to do this.It may get you raped, or killed.
Ted Bundy, the serial killer, was a good-looking, well educated man, who ALWAYS played on the sympathies of unsuspecting women. He walked with a cane, or a limp, and often asked 'for help' into his vehicle or with his vehicle,which is when he abducted
his next victim.
Please always remind yourself that the world we live in has a lot of crazies in it and it's better to be safe than sorry.It never hurts to be careful
in this crazy world we live in.

I want to share you what I was read in internet.it about woman..
hope you enjoy...
A little boy asked his mother, "Why are you crying?"
"Because I'm a woman," she told him.
"I don't understand," he said.
His Mom just hugged him and said, "And you never will."
Later the little boy asked his father, "Why does mother seem to cry for no reason?"
"All women cry for no reason," was all his dad could say.
The little boy grew up and became a man, still wondering why women cry. Finally he put prayed to God who would surely know the answer. When God responded he asked, "God, why do women cry so easily?"
God said:
"When I made the woman she had to be to be made special."
"I made her shoulders strong enough to carry the weight of the world, yet gentle enough to give comfort."
"I gave her an inner strength to endure childbirth and the rejection that many times comes from her children."
"I gave her a hardness that allows her to keep going when everyone else gives up, and take care of her family through sickness and fatigue without complaining."
"I gave her the sensitivity to love her children under any and all circumstances, even when her child has hurt her very badly. "
"I gave her strength to carry her husband through his faults and fashioned her from his rib to protect his heart."
"I gave her wisdom to know that a good husband never hurts his wife, but sometimes tests her strengths and her resolve to stand beside him unfalteringly."
"And lastly, I gave her a tear to shed. This is hers and only hers exclusively to use whenever she needs it. She needs no reason, no explanation, its hers."

Good night to everyone.After i finish write this blog.I want to sleep and have a nice dream.
Friends,remeber our Mr Adnan sad that hobby can be turned into a business opportunity if you want to make it so.
Your hobby can be turned into a business opportunity if you want to make it so. Keep your full-time job at the beginning until you are sure of it. Liking what you do gives you the stamina to see your business through hard times and when there is a lot of work. Try to think of ways of doing the business. If your hobby is cooking, you can start writing and selling recipes. If it is computer programming, write and sell your programming. Try attending meetings sponsored to help small businesses. You can obtain a lot of free and valuable information from people who have been in business. In this way, you learn something that will be extremely valuable to you later. Be patient for making profits takes time.
Good night..Oh!11.50pm.I need to sleep.Tomorrow still need to early wake up.

Hi!I would like to continue my comment with writing about history of Malaysia. is a country in South East Asia whose strategic sea-lane position brought trade and foreign influences that fundamentally influenced its history. Hindu India, the Islamic Middle East and Christian Europe to its west, and China and Japan with one of successive phases of outside influence, followed by the mid-twentieth century establishment of independence from foreign colonial powers. Hindu and Buddhist cultures imported from India dominated early Malaysian history. They reached their peak in the Sumatran-based Srivijaya civilization, whose influence extended through Sumatra, Java, the Malay Peninsula and much of Borneo from the 7th to the 14th centuries. Although Muslims had passed through Malaysia as early as the tenth century, it was not until the 14th and 15th centuries that Islam first established itself on the Malayan Peninsular. The adoption of Islam by the fifteenth century saw the rise of number sultanates, the most prominent of which was the Melaka (Malacca). Islamic culture has had a profound influence on the Malay people, but has also been influenced by them. The Portuguese were the first European colonial powers to establish themselves in Malaysia, capturing Malacca in 1511, followed by the Dutch. However, it was the British, who after initially establishing bases at Jesselton, Kuching, Penang and Singapore, ultimately secured their hegemony across the territory that is now Malaysia. The Anglo-Dutch Treaty of 1824 defined the boundaries between British Malaya and the Netherlands East Indies (which became Indonesia). A fourth phase of foreign influence was immigration of Chinese and Indian workers to meet the needs of the colonial economy created by the British in the Malay Peninsula and Borneo.
Japanese invasion during World War II ended British domination in Malaysia. The subsequent occupation from 1942 to 1945 unleashed nationalism in Malaya and Borneo. In the Peninsula, the Malayan Communist Party took up arms against the British. A tough military response was needed to end the insurgency and bring about the establishment of an independent, multi-racial Federation of Malaya in 1957. On 31 August 1963, the British territories in North Borneo and Singapore were granted independence and formed Malaysia with the peninsular states on 16 September 1963. Approximately two years later, Singapore was expelled from the Federation. A confrontation with Indonesia occurred in the early-1960s. Race riots in 1969 led to the imposition of emergency rule, and a curtailment of political life and civil liberties which has never been fully reversed. Since 1970 the "National Front coalition" headed by United Malays National Organization (UMNO) has governed Malaysia. Economic growth dramatically increased living standards by the 1990s. This growing prosperity helped minimize political discontent. Successive UMNO-dominated governments have promoted the use of the Malay language and carried out systematic positive discrimination and moderate apartheid in favour of Muslims, measures which cause great resentment.
These are some of the information about history Malaysia.We us citizen of this country must know history of Malaysia. Thank you.

Good days to all...
Here are some message want to share to all my friends...
To My Friends Who Are...........SINGLE
Love is like a butterfly. The more you chase it, the more it eludes you. But if you just let it fly, it will come to you when you least expect it. Love can make you happy but often it hurts, but love's only special when you give it to someone who is really worth it. So take your time and choose the best.
To My Friends Who Are............NOT SO SINGLE
Love isn't about becoming somebody else's 'perfect person.' It's about finding someone who helps you become the best person you can be.
To My Friends Who Are............PLAYBOY/GIRL TYPE
Never say 'I love you' if you don't care. Never talk about feelings if they aren't there. Never touch a life if you mean to break a heart. Never look in the eye when all you do is lie. The cruelest thing a guy can do to a girl is to let her fall in love when he doesn't intend to catch her fall and it works both ways...
To My Friends Who Are............HEARTBROKEN
Heartbreaks last as long as you want and cut as deep as you allow them to go. The challenge is not how to survive heartbreaks but to learn from them.
TO ALL MY FRIENDS.......
My wish for you is a man/women whose love is honest, strong, mature never-changing, uplifting, protective, encouraging, rewarding and unselfish.
Thank you...

Hi,greeting again to you all. For the last comment of today,I would like to share with you all about the super star which is our "King of Pop"~ Mr Michael Jackson.I know that the death of Michael jackson have bring a lots of sadness to many of his fans and of course included me.Let's us recall back the history and the influences of this super star here.
Michael Joseph Jackson, known as the "King of Pop", was an American musician and one of the most commercially successful entertainers of all time. His unique contributions to music and dance, along with a highly publicized personal life, made him a prominent figure in popular culture for four decades.
Michael Jackson's music genre takes roots in R&B, Motown's music, pop and soul. He had been influenced by the work of contemporary musicians such as Little Richard, James Brown, Jackie Wilson, Diana Ross, Fred Astaire and the Bee Gees. He was also an admirer of performers from the English music hall tradition, such as Benny Hill and Charlie Chaplin.While Little Richard had a huge influence on Jackson,James Brown was for him and since early childhood, his greatest inspiration: "the master" or "a genius" especially when he was playing with its group, the Famous Flames, qualifying its performance of "phenomenal". He declared: "Ever since I was a small child, no more than like six years old, my mother would wake me no matter what time it was, if I was sleeping, no matter what I was doing, to watch the television to see the master at work. And when I saw him move, I was mesmerized. I had never seen a performer perform like James Brown, and right then and there I knew that was exactly what I wanted to do for the rest of my life because of James Brown."
At first, the young Michael Jackson owes his vocal technique in large part to Diana Ross. In October 1969, it was decided that Michael lived with Diana Ross. Not only a mother figure to him, he often observed her in rehearsal as an accomplished performer. He later confessed: "I got to know her well. She taught me so much. I used to just sit in the corner and watch the way she moved. She was art in motion. I studied the way she moved, the way she sang - just the way she was." He told her: 'I want to be just like you, Diana'. She said: 'You just be yourself. But Michael especially owned his oooh's from Diana Ross. At first, Michael almost always punctuated his verses of oooh. Not a long oooh but rather a sudden exclamation. Diana Ross used this effect on many of the songs recorded with the The Supremes, and young Michael was delighted to take ownership.
A sadness news~on June 25,2009,Michael Jackson collapsed at his rented mansion at 100 North Carolwood Drive in the Holmby Hills district of Los Angeles. Attempts at resuscitating him by his personal physician were unsuccessful.Los Angeles Fire Department paramedics received a 911 call at 12:22 p.m.,arriving three minutes later at Jackson's location.He was reportedly not breathing and CPR was performed.Resuscitation efforts continued en route to the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center, and for an hour after arriving there at 1:13 p.m.He was pronounced dead at 2:26 p.m. local time.
Michael Jackson really had influence many people through his any action,any songs and so on. He is the role model for everyone. His spirit of not easily give up to any failure that should be learn by the younger generation. And I will always remenber to this SUPER STAR!
Rest in peace~our King Of Pop..

Assalamualaikum and every good day for you misss hanum.
here i want to write about mata rempit.the title is Mat Rempit preying on women, old peopleCallous and ruthless. This is an apt description for Mat Rempit snatch thieves who are now on the hunt for "raya money" by preying on women and senior citizens in the daytime.
The thieves are willing to go to any extent to get their victim's handbag even if it means she falls down and gets injured. In some cases, the victim does not even have any money in the handbag.
The latest theft occurred recently when a 53-year-old housewife was standing in front of a shopping centre in Jalan Ampang.
The housewife was approached by three men on two motorcycles at 6pm.
"One of the snatch thieves grabbed the victim's handbag and she fell down injuring her left knee," a police source told the New Sunday Times.
"The snatch thieves sped off without a second glance at their victim.
"She lost two mobile phones, cash and important documents worth a total of RM800," the source said.
The housewife immediately lodged a police report.
In a separate case, the sources said, a 25-year-old woman fell prey to two snatch thieves on a motorcycle while she was standing in front of a shopping centre in Jalan Ampang.
"The snatch theft occurred about 6.30pm and the woman did not realise she was being followed by two men on a motorcycle.
"They suddenly grabbed her handbag causing her to lose her balance."
The source said the woman, who works for a Korean airline company, injured her right hand.
In her police report, she said she lost her automated teller machine card and several important documents.
A third theft was reported by a trader who was set upon by two snatch thieves on a motorcycle as she was walking in Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman recently.
In 8am incident, the 38-year-old woman was walking after getting down from a taxi.
She was unaware that two men on a motorcycle were following her from behind.
"The trader, who runs a restaurant, suddenly felt a strong tug on her handbag before it was gone.
"The woman lost RM1,300 in cash and valuables and lodged a report over the incident," the source said.
Another theft occurred last Friday when a 25-year-old woman lost almost RM2,000 when her bag which contained a laptop and a passport was snatched by thieves on a motorcycle.
In the 1.30pm incident, the woman was walking alone in front of a fast food outlet in Jalan Tun Tan Cheng Lock when she was approached by a man.
"The man grabbed the woman's bag and immediately ran towards another man who was waiting on a motorcycle," the source said.
"Both snatch thieves then sped off leaving the woman staring in shock as the incident took place in a crowded area.
"Investigations show that these snatch thieves are Mat Rempit who are looking for cash in preparation for next month's Hari Raya Aidilfitri festivities.
"The police have increased patrols in these hot spots with the assistance of Rela and General Operations Force personnel.
"But the public must play their part by being more alert and sensitive to their surroundings," the source added.

i love malaysia.this is what the forieign exchange student says.
I am Shiori Toyama. I am a 17-year-old AFS foreign exchange student from Tokyo, Japan. I came to Malaysia on a one-year learning programme in early January this year.
In Japan, I learned from books that Malaysia is a multi-racial country. And that was exactly why I chose to come and experience life here in Malaysia.
To me, Malaysia is such an interesting country. In Japan, there are mainly the Japanese, but in Malaysia, there are so many different races, each with its own religion, culture, custom and tradition.
Everyday, I am learning something new. I can also see that Malaysians have learned to live together even though they may be very different from each other in some ways. And I think that is the most important lesson that I have learnt.
When I first arrived in Malaysia, I was placed with an Indian host family. Staying with a host family was a good way to learn about other people’s cultures and languages.
Every Friday, when my host family go to the Hindu temple to pray, I join them. I would wear my saree and stick the potu onto my forehead.
Last Friday, I went to stay with a Malay host family on an AFS weekend Homestay Programme. It was interesting as I got to learn and experience what it is like to live with a Malay family.
I have also stayed with a Chinese family when Kasumi, an AFS friend of mine, invited me for a weekend stay with her Chinese host family last month. On Sundays, I attend church services near my house.
As an AFS student, I get to study in a Malaysian school. Presently, I am at SMJK Poi Lam in Ipoh. I have many friends at school. Besides learning Bahasa Malaysia and English, I also get to learn Mandarin.
Starting next week, my Malay school friends will teach me traditional Malay dances like joget and zapin.
I have grown to love Malaysia more and more each day. I have even decided to return and work in Malaysia one day.
Who knows I may even start a family here!.
I find Malaysia to be such a beautiful and peaceful country. Different races, different religions and different cultures, but at heart they are all Malaysian. This is what I like most about Malaysia.

title:Important to be aware
Manpreet Sandhu 14, Kuala Lumpur
Say STDs and immediately everyone thinks it is a bad word. But, says Dr Premitha Damodaran, a consultant obsterician and gynaecologist: “… it is important to know about them.”
Since the risk of getting an STD is so high, she feels that people, especially youngsters, need to be aware of the dangers of contracting sexually transmitted diseases (STDs).
Why is it dangerous? “It can be transmitted easily.”
According to Dr Premitha, you can get an STD through oral kissing, oral sex, anal sex and vaginal sex. It can even be passed on when you are pregnant, and you can get it even through a non-sexual route.
Dr Premitha Damodaran, consultant obstetrician and gynaecologist.
“The most common STDs in Malaysia are herpes, HIV/AIDS, chlamydia and syphilis,” says Dr Premitha. She calls chlamydia a silent STD because it has no symptoms… only a burning sensation in the vagina.
“If it is left untreated, it can cause fertility problems.”
Syphilis, a general STD, can be detected through a test. A pregnant mother suffering from syphilis can pass it on to her baby, causing the child to have nose, teeth or even heart defects.
Beside the pain, discharge, redness and puss, these STDs can also lead to long-term problems.
“Syphilis can cause problems to the heart, blood vessels and brain; Herpes can cause problems in the mouth, and HIV can cause AIDS,” she explained. STDs can also lead to premature babies and miscarriages.
You might be wondering, how do you detect STDs? Well, an STD can be detected through the symptoms and several blood tests.
Can they be cured?
“Some can. Herpes can be cured through anti-viral drugs and antibiotics. The bad news is that syphilis, herpes, HIV and chlamydia never go away. You have to live with it! Even after you are treated, if your body’s immunity drops, you can still get the STD again,” she said.
I asked her how regularly are the patients monitored or treated?
“After six weeks or three months. If it comes down, then it’s six months… depending on the symptoms.
What can you do to prevent getting STDs? “Don’t have sex,” she said.
And who are actually at risk of suffering from an STD?
“Well,” she replied, “anyone who has sexual relations.”
Dr Premitha has advice to give both parents and kids. To all our dear parents, she says, “Open your eyes and look around, because it is happening. Communication with your kids is important. Be aware. It’s better to know than to ignore it, and give the right advice!”
To us, she says, “Don’t be pressured by your peers. Believe in yourself. A small mistake, can cause a huge problem. And get some information from the right place and don’t be afraid to ask”.
There you go, information on STDs! Please just stop the myth that says “STDs is a bad word” from going around. It’s not a bad word! It is mandatory to know about it… Stay alert, stay ahead, and stay safe. Remember, you can make the difference!

Two students who are down with influenza A (H1N1) symptoms are among the 517,908 candidates nationwide who are sitting the Ujian Pencapaian Se-kolah Rendah (UPSR) examination which begins today.
Education director-general Tan Sri Alimuddin Mohd Dom said preparations had been made for the students, one in Johor and the other in Penang, to sit the examination in hospitals.
He said these were among the measures taken to curb the spread of influenza A (H1N1) among UPSR candidates who were sitting the examination at 8,289 centres nationwide.
The Education Ministry had allocated about RM5 million for masks, hand sanitisers and thermometers for UPSR candidates, he said here yesterday.
He said an isolation room was available at all examination centres to accommodate those with a body temperature of above 37.5oC during screenings, which would be conducted upon their arrival at the centres.

TITLE :In 7 months, 306 pupils caught doing drugs
dear miss hanum.here i want to share with you about the article that i read from nst.this is about young today.
The National Anti-Drug Agency (AADK) yesterday revealed that in just a year, the number of pupils aged between 13 and 17 who tested positive for drug abuse has almost tripled.
Last year, AADK recorded 115 cases of drug abuse among pupils nationwide.
Its director-general, Datuk Abdul Bakir Zin, said that up to July this year, 306 pupils had tested positive for drugs out of 17,155 on whom the agency had conducted urine tests.
A recent test in Kelantan yielded 60 positive cases out of 4,000 pupils.
He said that through an intervention programme jointly run by the Education Ministry, the agency would continue to monitor schools nationwide by conducting frequent urine samples.
"Pupils who are caught consuming illegal substances will not be charged but will instead undergo counselling and therapy sessions to overcome their addiction," he said, adding that parents would be roped in to help their children in the recovery process.
Speaking to the press after signing the terms of reference (ToR) with the National Unity and Integration Department, Bakir said the agency conducted its own raids, separate from the police.
He said the agency was working hard to recruit more government bodies, government-linked companies and non-governmental organisations to join its battle against drugs.
"We have also signed ToRs with other countries such as the United States and more recently Iran, to curb drug abuse in our countries.
"With their cooperation and our own efforts, we look forward to minimising and completely eradicating drug abuse globally."
The agency is studying a proposal to sign ToRs with countries that have high cases of drug abuse, especially those closely linked to Malaysia.
"Once we have identified and studied the proposal, we will bring the matter up at the next Asean meeting."
Present at the signing ceremony was department director-general Datuk Azman Amin Hassan.

TITLE :Thai woman uses photo frames to smuggle cocaine.
Drug is a dangerous thing.Photo frames are now being used by international drug smugglers to smuggle out drugs from the country.
This tactic was discovered when police arrested a Thai woman who tried to smuggle out about two kilogrammes of cocaine valued at RM1.7 million at the Puduraya bus station on Sept 4.
The 22-year-old unmarried woman who is two months pregnant is believed to be a "drug mule" for international drug smugglers.
Kuala Lumpur police narcotics division chief, ACP Kang Chez Chiang, said in the 7.15pm raid on that day the woman had boarded a bus to go to Hatyai in southern Thailand.
"Police seized two photo frames suspected to contain cocaine. The drug was estimated to weigh about 2,046g," he told reporters here today.
The frames were in her clothes bag and also seized were RM10, 4,500 Thai bahts, US$150 and 49 Peruvian pesos.
Initial investigations together with Thai police revealed that the woman had entered Malaysia twice earlier to smuggle out drugs to her country.
"We believe the woman flew from Bangkok to Johannesburg, South Africa and then to Lima, Peru to get the supply before flying into KLIA and wanted to make her way to Thailand by land," said Kang.
The woman is now remanded for seven days since Saturday and is being investigated under Section 39B of the Dangerous Drugs Act 1952 that carries the mandatory death sentence upon conviction.
In a separate case, a man believed to be a go-between of a drugs syndicate in Brickfields was arrested for attempting to bribe police with RM20,000 to release four of his associates who were arrested during a raid on Sept 3.
Kang said man's associates, three men and a woman, aged between 31 and 51 years, tested positive for drugs.
With the cooperation of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) the man was arrested at an entertainment oulet in Jalan Loke Yew while trying to hand over the bribe.
Kang said the man was handed over to the MACC for investigation.

what do you understand about love?The English word "love" can have a variety of related but distinct meanings in different contexts. Often, other languages use multiple words to express some of the different concepts that English relies mainly on "love" to encapsulate; one example is the plurality of Greek words for "love." Cultural differences in conceptualizing love thus make it doubly difficult to establish any universal definition.
Although the nature or essence of love is a subject of frequent debate, different aspects of the word can be clarified by determining what isn't love. As a general expression of positive sentiment (a stronger form of like), love is commonly contrasted with hate (or neutral apathy); as a less sexual and more emotionally intimate form of romantic attachment, love is commonly contrasted with lust; and as an interpersonal relationship with romantic overtones, love is commonly contrasted with friendship, although other definitions of the word love may be applied to close friendships in certain contexts.
When discussed in the abstract, love usually refers to interpersonal love, an experience felt by a person for another person. Love often involves caring for or identifying with a person or thing, including oneself (cf. narcissism).
In addition to cross-cultural differences in understanding love, ideas about love have also changed greatly over time. Some historians date modern conceptions of romantic love to courtly Europe during or after the Middle Ages, although the prior existence of romantic attachments is attested by ancient love poetry.
Two hands forming the outline of a heart shape.
Because of the complex and abstract nature of love, discourse on love is commonly reduced to a thought-terminating cliché, and there are a number of common proverbs regarding love, from Virgil's "Love conquers all" to the Beatles' "All you need is love." Bertrand Russell describes love as a condition of "absolute value," as opposed to relative value. Philosopher Gottfried Leibniz said that love is "to be delighted by the happiness of another."
Assalamualaikum and good evening to all..do you know about drift?
Although nobody knows the exact place in history where drifting began, we do know that it happened at about the mid-1960's. Like a lot of the racing forms you see these days, the high-powered adrenaline rush of drifting today has evolved from what was once an illegal form of racing. This usually took place on curving mountain roads which were referred to as touge (pronounced toe-geh). Touge was taken on by some really dedicated enthusiasts which were known as the rolling zoku whose main goals were to lower there times from point A to B.
With time, some of these drift enthusiasts started to adopt some of the same drifting techniques that rally drivers were using. These techniques were ideal as they would be able to corner down the curves in the road without losing as much momentum. As these rolling zoku drivers started to pick up a lot of the rally drivers' techniques and styles, they soon realized that there drifting performance and times were much better than before. The adrenaline rush was alot more intense and addictive. And from these early drifting beginings in history, drifting was now taking on its form.that's all about drifting that i can share to you all...

At the of the creation of the World Health Organization (WHO), in 1948, Health was defined as being "a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity".[1][2]
This definition invited nations to expand the conceptual framework of their health systems beyond issues related to the physical condition of individuals and their diseases, and it motivated us to focus our attention on what we now call social determinants of health. Consequently, WHO challenged political, academic, community, and professional organizations devoted to improving or preserving health to make the scope of their work explicit, including their rationale for allocating resources. This opened the door for public accountability [3].
Only a handful of publications have focused specifically on the definition of health and its evolution in the first 6 decades. Some of them highlight its lack of operational value and the problem created by use of the word "complete." Others declare the definition, which has not been modified since 1948, "simply a bad one." [4].
In 1986, the WHO, in the Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion, said that health is "a resource for everyday life, not the objective of living. Health is a positive concept emphasizing social and personal resources, as well as physical capacities." Classification systems such as the WHO Family of International Classifications (WHO-FIC), which is composed of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) and the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) also define health.

Protein is needed primarily for repair and growth of the human body. Protein consists of amino acids, some of which can be made from other proteins, some of which are essential amino acids. A healthy diet requires sufficient quantities of all essential amino acids.
Some strictly epidemiological evidence shows an increased mortality with high red meat intake.
~Fat~
Main article: Fat
Fat is used in the body for forming cell membranes, oxidised for energy, and can be stored by the body for later use if food intake is inadequate.
Fats come in three main types, saturated fat, monounsaturated fat and polyunsaturated fat. A fourth form, trans fat, which is found in large quantities in foods such as margarine, is now known to be harmful.
~Carbohydrate~
Carbohydrates are chemicals that can be broken down in the body to simple sugars like glucose, fructose. Glucose is primarily used by the body in muscles but is the primary energy source used by the brain. If an excess of carbohydrate is consumed then it is stored with a large quantity of water as glycogen in the skeletal muscles and the liver. Fructose cannot be used by the skeletal muscles, but is converted into glucose by the liver. However if large quantities of fructose are consumed, the conversion produces triglycerides which are thought not to be healthy.
~Minerals~
Salt
While a moderate amount of salt is required for health, a high salt diet can have detrimental effects on blood pressure[3]:
~Potassium~
Potassium is used by the body for a number of purposes, and tends to lower blood pressure. An inadequate supply can cause heart arrhythmias.
~Magnesium~
Main article: Magnesium in biology#Food sources
Magnesium salts are used in the nervous system, and tends to lower blood pressure. They are mostly water soluble and so are easily absorbed.
~Calcium~
Calcium is used by the body to form and maintain bones and teeth and is used in the nervous system. Inadequate supply can result in osteoporosis.
~Iron~
Iron is used by the body to form red blood cells, which carry the oxygen for the body. Lack of iron can cause anemia. High doses of iron in a short period cause death.
~Copper~
Although toxic in high doses, copper is an essential nutrient. Low levels cause progressive failure of the nervous system.
~Chromium~
Chromium is used by the body to process carbohydrates. High doses of chromium are toxic.
~Selenium~
Selenium is toxic at high doses. In low doses it is used by the body to produce antioxidant chemicals, and some studies show an inverse relationship between intake and cancer. Few foods are high in selenium; one exception is Brazil nuts; one and half brazil nuts per day give the recommended intake.
~Vitamins~
Main article: Reference Daily Intake
The target amount of vitamins that are thought to be needed for good health are expressed as RDA (Recommended Daily Allowance) or Reference Daily Intake (RDI). RDAs vary somewhat with age, sex and bodyweight and may be increased or reduced by medical conditions.

How to Make Chocolate cake
Ingredients:
* 290g flour
* 150g cocoa powder
* 1 tbsp salt
* 1tbsp baking powder
* 1tbsp baking soda
* 675g sugar
* 5 large eggs
* 1tbsp vanilla extract
* 230ml milk
* 2tbsp lemon juice
* 170g butter
* 250ml strong coffee
How to make:
# Sift together all the dry ingredients;flour,cocoa powder,baking powder,baking soda,salt.
# Stir in sugar. Sukatan gula ni quite banyak, so if you guys rasa tanak manis sgt,you can always lessen the amount.
# Combine eggs and vanilla essence in a different bowl. You guys kena make sure that the eggs are at room temperature. Kalau bawak kluar straight from fridge let it warm up to suhu bilik dulu baru guna.
# Mix in the eggs into the dry ingredients.
# In another bowl, add milk and lemon juice. Actually, this is to substitute buttermilk. Since buttermilk ni susah juga nk carik,you guys can always use this substitution.Let the milk sit for awhile, sampai susu tu jadi pekat sedikit.
# Melt the butter.
# Add in milk(buttermilk tadi),melted butter and coffee ( coffee ni boleh guna Nescafe yang dah dicampur dgn air ) to the dry ingredients.
#
# This batter will bake you two 9-inch(23cm) cakes. So kalau nak buat satu je,then separuhkan all the ingredients diatas.
# Bake in pre-heated oven (180degrees) for about 50mins or so. You guys kena make sure that you guys preheat the oven dulu. This is very important in order to make sure cake korang bakar naik dengan elok, and doesn’t sink in the middle.
# Transfer pans to a wire cooling rack. Make sure that you guys let the cake cool off completely before doing any decorations on the cake.

Literature and its importance!
Literature according to me is very important and I did not realise its importance till I myself started to study it. Learning literature covers many aspects such as the social aspect, economical aspect and also the moral values instilled in our society. When we read the stories, poems and novels, we learn more about culture and its values. We are more aware of the positive and negative aspects of life and through learning literature, positive mindset is slowly being arranged in our mind. Learning literature is important and as for the teachers, teaching literature is important as well. they are the main ones who have the power to encourage the students to gain the interest in learning literature. Lastly, strongly think that learning literature and teaching literature is both important as they help to educate the younger generation to move towards a better and positive life.

Songket Weaving - Malaysia
Vague evidence seems to suggest that Srivijaya's rule began to crumble in the 13 th century , this gave other trading ports the opportunity to divert merchant ships with promises of trade opportunities. One such port was Melaka, which swiftly took charge of the trading route down the Straits of Melaka. Traders exchanged goods at the port, shipping basic necessities such as rice, sugar, pottery and luxury items such as silk yarns, gold and silver for ivory, tortoiseshell, resin, waxes, sandalwood, spices and other jungle products abound in the region's rainforest. Textiles were brought in to trade or as gifts for the Sultan and his entourage. It is noted that the royal court clothed in textiles were very much influenced by Indian weaving and design methods. The courts' controlled the textile trade and by the 15 th century, Melaka was trading in a variety of luxurious textiles including fine silks, gold threads and brocade. Weavers were no longer restricted to the use of local materials.
The adoption of silk led to many changes to the local weaving technology. Although the back-strap loom was capable of producing intricate designs and motifs, the use of fine silk threads required greater control. By the 16 th century, the Europeans had colonised many parts of Southeast Asia including Melaka. The frame loom was probably introduced from West Europe. The Malay weavers added to the frame loom, a fine comb where the warps could be passed through and separated but kept evenly spaced. This modified method meant that it was much easier to set up a plain silk warp and create patterns with the weft threads. It must have encouraged the creation of the songket especially in decorating the fabric with gold threading.
It is not certain as to the songket's place of origin but the Kelatanese believe that this weaving technique came from the North, somewhere in the Cambodia-Siam region and expanded south into Pattani and finally to Kelantan and Terengganu. However, Terengganu weavers believe that Indian traders brought songket weaving to Palembang and Jambi where it probably originated during the time of Srivijaya.
Much documentation is sketchy about the origins of the songket but it is most likely that songket weaving was brought to Peninsular Malaysia through intermarriages between royal families. This was a common occurrence in the 15 th century for sealing strategic alliances. These royal women would bring along their personal weavers with their entourage. Although the term menyongket means 'to embroider with gold or silver threads', the Malay songket is not embroidered. The songket utilises an intricate supplementary weft technique where gold threads are woven in between the longitudinal silk threads of the background cloth. This rich and luxurious fabric demonstrated the social structure of the Malay elite. The symbolism of thread colours to signify the status and title of the Court has been in use since the period of the Melaka Sultanate during the reign of Sultan Muhammad Shah (1426 - 1446, Sejarah Melayu). White gold thread was the colour of the ruler, yellow for the crown prince, blue or violet for the prime minister and so on. Sultan Muhammad Shah himself preferred to be dressed in 'Malay Attire' as he refused to emulate foreign clothing. The royal court weavers would produce individualised motifs often created by the wearers themselves. This rich textile was transformed from a mere form of attire into a canvas for individuality, personal triumphant, and was regarded as a symbol of prestige not only within the court arena but on an international stage.
In the past two decades, kain songket has been introduced into a wider audience of culturally conscious wearers. Terengganu has the highest concentration of songket weavers in Malaysia. With the gradual reintroduction of songket into the Malay Culture, there seems to be a stronger reason for the locals to take up weaving as a profession.
From standard 1 until now, we did alot of texts and exams. But how many people really understand the purpose or the reason why we have to take exam.? Just for the marks?
Actually the main purpose of exams is for lecturers to check that you have understood the work. A more conventional answers would be: to measure knowledge of the content of, or the achievement of, the learning outcomes that are equivalent to those of a specific course (Intended Learning Outcomes).
Anyway, final exam is near, the university is fully with stress now. Let us work hard together to get good result.

Before, I went back to my hostel at 27.9.09. My father brought me go to Batu Caves for a while. Friends, have you been heard about this place? If you don’t know, I will slightly tell you about this place.
The Batu Caves are situated thirteen kilometres north of the capital city Kuala Lumpur. They are the sacred place for the Hindu’s in Malaysia. They consist of three main caves and a number of smaller ones. The caves are made of limestone and 400 meters long and 100 meter high. They were discovered in 1892.There are the information that I know about the Batu Caves.
Although I live in the Kuala Lumpur but I haven’t visit the Batu Caves and climb the steps at there. When I arrived there, I already feel tired although I haven’t started to climb these long steps.
When I climb, I greeted by lots of monkeys. They are going for me peanuts and banana's, which can buy in several shop, before I climb up to the caves. There have so many times that I have stopped because need for a rest. I feel very tired and my body started to sweat. When I started climb the step, I count all the steps that I have climb. I have climb 272 steps, which will lead me to the religious and magnificent Batu Caves.
After finish climbed the steps. My father and I walk into the caves. There have some tourist take picture with the monkey and the view at there. I can see so many limestones at the caves. But we just walk for a while because inside the cave is very smelly. Thus, we go down the steps.

If you wants have a healthy body.This is the ways you need to follow:
1. Start with exercise. A healthy diet is built on a base of regular exercise, which keeps calories in balance and weight in check.
2. Focus on food, not grams. The Healthy Eating Pyramid doesn’t worry about specific servings or grams of food, so neither should you. It’s a simple, general guide to how you should eat when you eat.
3. Go with plants. Eating a plant-based diet is healthiest. Choose plenty of vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and healthy fats, like olive and canola oil.
4. Cut way back on American staples. Red meat, refined grains, potatoes, sugary drinks, and salty snacks are part of American culture, but they’re also really unhealthy. Go for a plant-based diet rich in non-starchy vegetables, fruits, and whole grains. And if you eat meat, fish and poultry are the best choices.
5. Take a multivitamin, and maybe have a drink. Taking a multivitamin can be a good nutrition insurance policy. Moderate drinking for many people can have real health benefits, but it's not for everyone. Those who don’t drink shouldn’t feel that they need to start. For more information, read "Alcohol: Balancing Risks and Benefits."
So, we need to have this good habit to make sure we are healthy everday.

Title: Normal or Nuts?!
Source: Reader Digest (October 2008 Edition, from “3rd Annual: Are you normal or nuts?” wrote by William Speed Weed)
Are you this kind of person? Always talking to yourself? Too shy in the crowd? Too sensitive while watching sad movies? Afraid of bugs? Or hate cats walking around you? Ever you think that you sometimes acts not like a normal person, thinking you are nuts. Here are some “nuts alike” symptoms, and some opinions from the professionals.
1.Afraid to go high places because either you afraid that you will jump or suddenly falling then die easily.
Professional thinks: Dr Mike Wymes, psychiatrist in private practice in the San Francisco Bay Area who also a former US Army paratrooper giving his solution that this “high phobia” is common among us, but why not you overcome it by try it by yourself? Of course in secure ways, like go for skydiving. You will possibly experiencing the flying and floating. Expose to what you are fear. The simple way, try to go “little” high building, maybe the third floor, bring a therapist or friend with you. Try to stay there until you feel safe and comfort, at least this is the way that might stop your impulse to jump or fall.
2.When moms at their late 70s, they loves to arrange furniture (they become even stronger than the youths), but aren't they too old for that?
Professional thinks: Either she is Martha Stewart die-hard-fan or might suffering from anxiety or OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) which can be cured medically, or what if she is boring? It's normal for ladies in their 70s to feel nothing to do. So, rather than sit and do nothing they will start to arrange things. Might be their furniture are the only creative things left for them to work on. Dr Michelle Riba (from University of Michigan) thinks it's good if the grown up children have their mother-children talk. Or lending hands by helping her, perhaps might solve the problems.
3.Shopaholics! Buying same things over and over. You buy a lot of things, but never used it. Worst, when your house got labeled as the shopping store.
Professional thinks: Janice Levine, PhD from Lexington thinks that you might be addicted or suffering from retail therapy. But, you still normal, the question pointed out, either you or “things” that be controlled. For this case, it considered as obsession on things. You love nurturing yourself with good things. Better solution, consult a therapist.
4.You hard to concentrate on things. You are not day-dreaming, but it's just your mind going somewhere, without you ask for it.
Professional thinks: Either you got anxiety or depressions (if and only if you realized it just happened recently) or it might “Attention deficit disorder” that you have it since your childhood days. Dr Beresin from Havard said that those three problems have the cures, through medical supplements and therapy. Occasional spaciness is common when you are stressed, but it's better if you met someone who can help you to avoid it become even worse.

Title: Easy tips to get cash.
Source: Reader Digest (October 2008 Edition, from “5 Ways to Stash Cash” by Jean Chatzky)
People always inspired to save cash but never know how to get the cash. Jean Chatzky, the author together with Jeff Yeager, author of The Ultimate Cheapskate's Road Map to True Riches, suggest five ways to start getting money and savings.
1.Limit trips to supermarket.
Each time you go to supermarket, even you just dropped by, you'll buy things. It's common, the feelings to buy. Either it's on your list or might just unimportant things. Try to limit your trip like once in a week. If you once make four trips per week with spending extra RM 10, try to change it once a week and you'll save around RM120!
2.Coupons are not for groceries anymore
We can obviously see, not only there are coupons for supermarket groceries, even there are some for movies, dinners, even clothes. If you spent RM 75 per meal each for your family when you dine out, twice a month. You can possibly save up to RM 180 per year with 10% off coupons.
3.Audit your bills
Call the customer services to ensure you are the best-cheapest talk plan while using your phone. Bundle up your internet connections, which will costs less paid. Perhaps hundreads per year?
4.Use public transportation or carpool
Surely, you save a lot on petrol, car park and maintenance, even make the world greener. Share rides even better to avoid traffics. In the other ways, you not only save your money, even time and energy.
5.Consolidate your plugs.
Five to fifteen percents of power consumed when you turning off your electrical appliances without unplug them. The best way is to use power strip or surge protector, most important, unplug it when you are away from home or when you ready to bed.

Title: Funny Facts
Source: Reader Digest (June 2008 Edition,
Greetings to readers and Miss Hanum, today I would like to share some funny life facts that I got through my RD reading.
1.“Weeping with laughter, sobbing with sorrow”, why do we sometimes cry when we laugh?
Answer: Few experiments been carried out to check on this situation, but no specific answers. However, Tom Lutz, an author of Crying: The Natural and Cultural History of Tears, realized Darwin on his time, he once published photo of laughing and crying people to demonstrate that both expressions accompanies each other. Usually tears come out when our faces got scrunched up, in other way, it comes up after high excitements. Because tears will accompany the body's return to homeostasis. In other words, when we got tears while laughing, it's signal that our body return to normal condition.
It still clueless about what made of tears, that make people cry. Different from forced tears while chopping onion, emotionally tears contains more protein-based hormones, which could releases stress and perhaps it is why when people laugh then they will get to tears cause thats mean our mind become stress-free.
2.Why buttons on women's wear are on the left side while the men's are on the right?
Answer: Metali Goswami from De La Salle – College of Saint Benilde said the trend been set up since Victorian Era. During that time, button are expensive items to buy and clothes with buttons were only affordable by the wealthy family. And it's a culture among the riches that the servants will dress the rich ladies. Most of them are right-handed, thus the clothes made for women on that time suits the servants hand which on the right-side of the wearer. Meanwhile, the men prefer to wear by themselves, thus buttons were placed on the left-side. But, those groups who unaffordable to have servants will just copied the clothes style, and since then the trends continues.
3. Why there is alphabet on the telephone key/dial?
Answer: In 1920s, after long study, the alphabet was introduced by the thinking that “no human being should be asked to remember more than four-digit number”. It was said by the founder of New England Museum of Telephony, Charles Galley. However, larger cities serve larger amounts of clients, thus they required to have six-digits of numbers. To ease the telephony companies, they make the phone number consists of two letters and four digits. Instead of having six packed digits, they make it this way to ease the customers and themselves. The number 1 and 0 got no letters accompany, you can see right now on you mobile phone key pad, that there is no letter for 1 and 0. The reason is, the 1 and 0 had been set up to be special number, 1 proved problematic for early equipment, while 0 used for connections to operators.

How To Make Ice Cream Without a Machine
51 comments - 07.30.2007
People have been making ice cream far longer than the invention of electricity so there's no reason you can't make ice cream and sorbets at home without a machine.
The advantage to using an electric or hand-cranked machine is that the final result will be smoother and creamier. Freezing anything from liquid-to-solid means you're creating hard ice crystals, so if you're making it by hand, as your ice cream or sorbet mixture freezes, you want to break up those ice crystals as much as possible so your final results are as smooth and creamy as possible.
Machines are relatively inexpensive nowadays with models costing less than $50, and yes, I've seen the ball, but if I started tossing one of those around the streets here in Paris, I'd probably get even more strange looks than I normally get. (Plus you'll need to lug some rock salt home as well.)
But not everyone has the space or the budget for a machine, so here's how you can do your own ice cream at home without a churner. I recommend starting with an ice cream recipe that is custard-based for the smoothest texture possible. You can use my Vanilla Ice Cream or another favorite, or even this Strawberry Frozen Yogurt recipe using Greek-style or drained yogurt. The richer the recipe, the creamier and smoother the results are going to be.
Ice cream made this way is best eaten soon after it's made—which shouldn't be a problem.
Making Ice Cream Without A Machine
1. Prepare your ice cream mixture, then chill it over an ice bath.
2. Put a deep baking dish, or bowl made of plastic, stainless steel or something durable in the freezer, and pour your custard mixture into it.
3. After forty-five minutes, open the door and check it.
As it starts to freeze near the edges, remove it from the freezer and stir it vigorously with a spatula or whisk. Really beat it up and break up any frozen sections. Return to freezer.
4. Continue to check the mixture every 30 minutes, stirring vigorously as it's freezing. If you have one, you can use a hand-held mixer for best results, or use a stick-blender or hand-held mixer.
But since we're going low-tech here, you can also use just a spatula or a sturdy whisk along with some modest physical effort.
5. Keep checking periodically and stirring while it freezes (by hand or with the electric mixer) until the ice cream is frozen. It will likely take 2-3 hours to be ready.
You can easily make Stracciatella ice cream with Italian-style chocolate chips:
Drizzle pure melted dark or milk chocolate (about 5 ounces, 140 g) over the almost-frozen mixture, then stir, breaking up the ribbons of chocolate as they start to freeze, to create little 'chips'.
Transfer the ice cream to a covered storage container until ready to serve.

How To Make Kid's Mini Pizzas
Kid's Mini Pizzas Recipe. London's Art of Hospitality is a children's cookery school, teaching children the skills to make food that is good for them. Follow Julia Chalkley and Sally Kuhrt's recipe for every kid's favourite- mini pizzas. Try our Kid's Mini Pizzas recipe.
Step 1: You will need
500 g strong bread flour
40 g semolina
2 tbsp caster (superfine) sugar
1 ½ tsp salt
2 ½ tbsp olive oil
10 g dried yeast
300 ml warm water
400 g tin chopped tomatoes
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp mixed dried herbs
1 large bowl
1 measuring jug
1 measuring spoons
1 cling film or a clean cloth
1 wooden spoon
1 baking tray
1 saucepan
1 rolling pin
1 olive stoner
1 knife
Step 2: The base
Place 500 grams of strong white bread flour into a large bowl.
Add 40 grams of semolina… 2 teaspoons of caster sugar… 1 and a half teaspoons of salt… and 2 and a half tablespoons of olive oil. Then add 10 grams of dried yeast. This is the ingredient which will make the dough rise. Mix well.
Step 3: Mix in the water
Gradually stir in 300 millimetres of water. Mix with a wooden spoon until it forms a soft dough. It shouldn't be too sticky, so stop adding the water when it is firm.
Step 4: Knead the dough
Sprinkle a little flour onto a work surface and turn the dough out. Use your hands to knead it by pushing away with the palms of your hands, and pulling it back with your fingers, turning it frequently. Keep kneading for about 10 minutes. The dough will become soft and silky to touch. Form a compact ball.
Step 5: Let the dough rise
Lightly oil a large bowl- this will prevent the dough from sticking to the sides. Put the dough in and cover either with cling film or a clean cloth. Put the bowl in a warm place and leave it to rise for about 45 minutes, or until it has puffed up and feels soft and springy to touch.
Step 6: Tomato sauce
While the dough is rising you can prepare the sauce. Put 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 400g tin of tomatoes, 1 teaspoon of herbs, a good twist of black pepper, and 2 pinches of salt into a saucepan. Place on the hob, and turn on to a medium to low heat. Give it a quick stir. Leave it to thicken for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure it doesn't burn. Then take it off the heat, and leave to cool until it's needed.
Step 7: Roll out the base
Lightly flour a surface and roll the dough into a long sausage shape. Then slice off small fist sized pieces. Shape each piece into a disc, then roll out into a small circle.
Step 8: Rise again
Lightly flour a baking tray and place the pizzas on. Move the bases to a warm place. Leave them to rise for again, this time for about 15 to 20 minutes
Step 9: Preheat the oven
Turn the oven to 230 degrees Celsius, leaving it to preheat while the dough rises
Step 10: Topping
When risen, bring the pizza bases back to the work surface. Spoon a little of sauce onto each pizza base, and spread it out. Now it's time to get creative with your toppings, try the following; Slice the mozzarella and arrange on the pizzas. Split the anchovies in 2 and lay in a cross. If your olives have stones, remove them, cut in two and place them on the pizza. Sprinkle over a few pinches of herbs. Arrange a few caper berries or capers. Whatever you like!
Step 11: Rise again
Put the pizzas in a warm dry place and leave to prove again for about 10 minutes.
Step 12: Bake
Then, transfer to the oven to bake for 20 minutes, or until the bases are evenly cooked and golden, and the cheese has melted.

Time Management Skills for College Students
Within the first few days of starting college, many students quickly learn that managing their time is one of the most challenging -- and difficult -- aspects of being in school. With so much to do and keep track of, strong time management skills can make all the difference.
1. Get -- and use -- a calendar. It can be a paper calendar. It can be your cell phone. It can be a PDA. No matter what kind it is, though, make sure you have one.
2. Write down everything. Write down everything in one place. (Having multiple calendars just gives you more to do amidst an already tight schedule.) Schedule when you plan to sleep, when you are going to do your laundry, when you're going to call your parents. The crazier your schedule gets, the more important this becomes.
3. Schedule time to relax. Don't forget to schedule in time to relax and breathe. Just because your calendar goes from 7:30 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. doesn't mean you can.
4. Keep trying new systems. If your cell phone calendar isn't big enough, buy a paper one. If your paper one keeps getting torn, try a PDA. If you have too many things written down each day, try color-coding to help simplify. Very few college students make it through their programs without some kind of calendaring system; keep trying until you find one that works for you.
5. Allow for flexibility. Things inevitably come up that you weren't expecting. You may not have known that your roommate's birthday is this week, and you certainly don't want to miss the celebrations! Leave room in your calendar so that you can move things around a little when needed.
6. Plan ahead. Do you have a large research paper due the last week of the semester? Work backward in your calendar and figure out how much time you need to write it, how much time you'll need to research it, and how much time you'll need to pick your topic. If you think you'll need six weeks for the entire project, work backward from the due date and schedule the time into your calendar before it's too late.
7. Plan for the unexpected. Sure, you just might be able to pull off two papers and a presentation during midterms week. But what happens if you catch the flu the night you're supposed to be pulling the all-nighter? Expect the unexpected so you don't have to spend more unplanned time trying to fix your mistakes.
8. Schedule rewards in. Your midterms week is a nightmare, but it will all be over Friday by 2:30. Schedule a fun afternoon and a nice dinner out with some friends; your brain will need it, and you can relax knowing that you're not supposed to be doing anything else.
