A trip For the first time in my life, I went oversea. Hahahaha, it kind weird to say it that way because it much nearer to go to this oversea, than to go to my country capital city. I’m Malaysian, living in Johor and Johor is much nearer to Singapore than to Kuala Lumpur. Yes, I just went to a place near my hometown and I’m glad I make the trip. Even though at first I nearly wanted to cancel the trip, but I’m glad I proceed with it. Since kid, I always been exposed to Singapore, and my interest towards English started with Singapore channel because at my home I got Singapore channel. And because Singapore used English, somehow, I was influenced to learn English and now here I am, an English teacher. Somehow, when I was teaching, I wonder how I can best teach my pupils. I got the advantage because I got exposed with English since I was small, but my pupils? They live in rural area, far from English usage and sometimes it takes many times before they can remember a word that I told them....

This week, two of my friends, decided to start diet and out of sudden, I want to follow. So, starting this week, my nad my friends haven't touch rice. Well, I have eat rice twice, but my friend, zero. Ohh, dietting is so hard, but weirdly, I felt more energetic. I guess I'm going to stick with it so that I can achieve my dream boy. Jnegjengjeng. I cannot believe I talked about this because usually, I think it impossible to cut down on eating because I think I don't eat much. But still, I'm consider as fat. What I discover during this period is that I can still live goodly eventhough with lack of the things that I used to have. I'm kind a person who wants everything is there, is enough and I will be panic if my stuff is not enough and turn out its bad habit. I always ended up throw things at the end. Now, I wanted to live on a basic things. I think that will be good because I could save more and hopefully tae off same fat off my body. ;)

Don’t be afraid of what may happen in the future I quoted from a book I read, Don’t be sad, at page 115 : “Most of what is feared to occur, never happens” As I a person who constantly feels fears and worry all the time, this sentence somehow managed to make me calm and realized that there is no benefit of worrying of what will happen in the future. As my lecturer once always said : “Live in the moment”. If not, you will miss out many things. Treasure every moments that you have. Be active, be productive, be happy. Work hard, play hard and proceed the things that you want. Always be patients, because at times, when chelelnges knock you door, let it be and be patient, because in every matters and problems, there must be ways to fix iit. Love yourself, believe yourself and be confident. Don’t be afraid to admit your weaknesses and your mistakes. We human will keep on doing mistakes, because from there we learn. Smile even though when you feel terribly down, because it gives you hope that ...

Some inspirational picture to share. Its not mine. Credit belongs as in the picture. But the picture is so good, that'w why I want to share it.

Money, something that always keep going on my mind, and sometimes I make my life led by it. Even though I know, that money is not everything in this life Waste your money and you’re only out of money, but waste your time and you’ve lost a part of your life. Michael Leboeuf The rule is not to talk about money with people who have much more or much less than you. Katherine Whitehorn Never work just for money or for power. They won’t save your soul or help you sleep at night. Marian Wright Edelman You have reached the pinnacle of success as soon as you become uninterested in money, compliments, or publicity. Thomas Wolfe If you want to feel rich, just count the things you have that money can’t buy Unknown source Time is more valuable than money. You can get more money, but you cannot get more time. Jim Rohn Money never made a man happy yet, nor will it. The more a man has, the more he wants. Instead of filling a vacuum, it makes one. Benjamin Franklin Money is only a tool. It will take yo...

It has long been suspected that your right cerebral hemisphere, when in the alpha state, operates in a realm where time and space are of no consequence. What you think affects others...... and what others think affects you! It is rather like the invisible connection between the earth's magnetic field and every magnetic compass on earth. They are interconnected. If the earth's magnetic field were to suddenly shift then every compass in existence would swing in unison. Likewise, if you suddenly move a magnetic compass, or any magnet for that matter, this movement will have a slight effect on the earth's entire magnetic field. Admittedly this would be so small as to be immeasurable but it would still be there. Similarly, when you have a thought it “twitches” the entire human consciousness "thought field". Rupert Sheldrake calls this the Morphogenetic Field. Karl Jung called it Collective Unconsciousness. Jose Silva found a practical method of evoking and controlling ...

When I was a teenager, I'm not a kind of person who can easily smile. I find it hard to smile and of course to laugh. Even once, my teacher said to me " Don't you know how to smile? Maybe during that time, i went into an arrogance phase, therefore I don't bother much. But as went along, went into university, met new people, make acquaintance with so many people, I learn so many valuable lesson and one of them is don't be afraid to be friends with anybody. Just smile and listen. Yes, it the road of making new friends, I met so many kind of people, where sometimes, I can accept that person attitude and sometimes I cannot. Hei, I cannot be picky because not all can accept my attitude too. Some people are easily mix around, some are funny, some are low self confidence, some look down on me and so many various people. But, it that journey, I believe many of us also did, found a nice person who share their thoughts, and sincere in becoming your friends. I am lucky becau...
