The Power of Music

I've just read an article about music helps brain to relearn words at dictionary.reference.com today. When I saw this title, I clicked on it at once. I was like "wow, is music can really help our brain to relearn words?" and "how can it help?". Interested to know? Below is the link.

When I ponder about it, yea, I'm also studying while turning the music on. Whatever music type it is- rap, rock, punk rock, alternative rock, acoustic rock, classical or R&B. :)

Sometimes..

Never mind, I'll find someone like you,
I wish nothing but the best for you,
Don't forget me, I beg,
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love,
But sometimes it hurts instead."

Observe

When talking about observation, an interesting story suddenly comes to my mind. Here the story goes..

One day, a science teacher teaches the students on how to test the acidity of urine. Now there's a container which contains 10ml of urine on every student's table. After all the apparatus is ready, then the class starts.

Teacher: All right, class. Now let me show you how to test it. First of all, put all the apparatus away, except the container which contains urine. Then, dip your finger into the urine. Watch carefully..

(The teacher puts his finger into his mouth and all the students are stunned by his action.)

Teacher: OK, now it's your turn. Try to do what as I did just now.

(Even though every student thinks that the test is so ridiculous, they have to do it as what the teacher did. And.. they did it.)

Students: Yuck~! It's disgusting!

(The commotion occurs in the class. When the teacher sees what they did. He explains to them.)

Teacher: Class, please calm down and relax. OK, let me tell you the truth. Actually I was using my middle finger to dip into the urine and put my index finger into my mouth. So, I'm not really taste the urine and I'm so disappointed what you all did. You know, observation is very important, no matter it's on the test or in your life. If you lack of observation in your life, you will miss something. So, next time please concentrate and observe.

(After the explanation, all the students smile and nod.)

So, you too. Try to observe everything in your life so that you won't miss something or something which is important to you.

Counting the Days~

Wake up, go to work, come home, it's not working

We've been living our whole lives

On a system that is broken...

A New One

The latest flavor in 100 Yen- Melon.

3 words to describe it: Nice and tasty~!

Have a closer look.

This is a must-try. When you see this flavor, please do not hesitate. Just put it inside your mouth, close your eyes and taste it, then you will understand what is called no regrets. :D

In The Training Room

YES! Tomorrow will be the last day of my Abacus training. Phew~ Finally.. C: I really learned many things at there. Happy for it. :) During the first week of the training that is level 1, Mr.Amirsham was my trainer. He's a friendly and a funny guy. When you look at him from the part of his nose to the part of his chin, you will think of Johnny Depp. HAHA. It really looks alike. Honestly I like the way he teaches. He speaks loud and clear which can attract people's attention. Everyone can understand what he's teaching and we are so pro in this first week. :D Sometimes, he makes cold jokes to prevent us from falling asleep in the training room and this only makes the whole class just look at him and make no sound. xD

Then, the next week is level 2-the highest level of the training. There's another trainer to train us for level 2 as Mr.Amirsham will not teach us in this level. I think this trainer is new and fresh, so there's a lot of confusion. But after we've done many practices, everything becomes fine. Well, she just only teaches us for 2 days. The last 3 days will be taught by a professional-look trainer. Although she looks so serious, she teaches us well too, same like Mr.Amirsham. Just that she seldom makes jokes. Attending this training, I miss my study life badly.

What I find the most nicest thing during my training is the refreshments. Hehe. The food are curry puffs, fried bananas, sponge cakes and the drinks is tea. Sounds good, right? :) And there's 2 times break in one day. I like curry puffs the most. It's so tasty. After the training is ended, I think I won't have the chance to eat it again. :( Overall, it's a beneficial training.

BIG Thanks~

Thank you for everyone who wished me Happy Birthday yesterday. I really appreciate that and am so happy. :D For those who texted me and sent me birthday wishes on Facebook during my birthday, I've drawn a simple "BIG thanks" for all of you using a marker pen and four highlighter pens. Haha. Hope that you all will like it. :)

John Vesely- the acoustic rock band

Recently, I am addicted to Secondhand Serenade's new album- Hear Me Now. :D Love his songs so much. The way he sings just makes me feel comfortable, relax and calm. Especially the songs named "Something More", "Distance", "World Turns", "You and I" and "Only Hope".

Except his songs, I like his appearance too- Handsome. :)

Healthy Drinks~

Green apple juice

I bought and drank it today. It's very tasty and I feel refreshing once I drink it. It's highly recommended to drink it as green apple is good for health. Below are some benefits of it:

1. good for heart

2. great antioxidants

3. prevents asthma

4. cleanses liver

5. reduces cholesterol

6. contains Vitamin C

7. anti-aging

8. strengthens bones

9. prevents cancer

10. cures obesity

However, it is essential to drink natural green apple juice, not the preserved one which provides in the stores. Let's stay healthy together~ :D

If

If I did not make any mistakes, everything will be all good.

Worry? Read This.

I am worry about my future.

NO, I shouldn't say that. I know that worry is useless, can't solve any problems. I really don't know what I should do, I feel so blue and don't know what course I should take after I get my Diploma in Tourism. (I know that Diploma is not enough.) Now my feeling is just like high-school graduates who have no idea what course to take. I am thinking for so long and nothing appears in my mind, so I pray to God.

One night, I sat on my bed in a silent room, hands holding a bible. After I prayed, then I opened the bible and just flicked through the pages. What I saw in it was exactly what I need to know and what to do. It stated "Do Not Worry".

I read Matthew 6:26 :

"Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much valuable than they?"

And Matthew 6:27 :

"Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?"

After I read it, I feel relieved. :) That's right, I shouldn't worry so much. Just think about those trees at the roadside. They just stand firmly in the soil and do nothing, but God feeds them with rainwater to make them grow. So, why am I worry? I should do research and ask somebody who knows about it, better than do nothing. I believe one day I will get what I want.

The Only One

Ice Milo + Grilled chicken rice

It's dinner time and my friends ask me where to have dinner. You know, this is the most difficult question for me because I already get bored of eating the same food for every day. Argh.. But the only food that I never get bored is western food! :D

This is the food that I ordered in Wan Quan. I like the sauce of the grilled chicken. I'm lovin' it.. xD

Let us finish all up! :) But I still left some rice on the plate, not because the rice is not delicious. It's because the sauce is not enough for me. Haha.. I want more sauce! :(

Wish me luck, please.

When we see flower horn fish or we call them Luo Han in Chinese, we all know that it's related to prosperity, health, wealth and also luck. And these are the things that I want.

The main focus of attraction- the forehead! Besides, it has beautiful colours on its whole body which make it won't look so dull/pale. Observe carefully, you can see the black horizontal markings on its body. My aunts told me that when you focus to look at the markings, you can see there are numbers (normally 4 digits). The numbers that you can see, it may bring you luck if you go to buy lotto. HAHA

This morning I went to a restaurant called Sweet Home which is near my working place before work. I ordered a plate of mi hun with a luncheon, then sat at the table which is near an aquarium. There was a flower horn fish in it. Once I saw it, I thought about what my aunts had told me- it brings luck! So, I tried to focus on the black markings on its body, was trying to figure the numbers out. I guess I saw 0614. :X Hmm..the flower horn fish must bring a lot of luck to the restaurant as I see it always full house.

Hope that it will bring me luck, health and wealth too. :)


P/S: For those who needs money desperately, spend one buck and go ahead to buy lotto. xD

Beauty

Each moment of the year has its own beauty...

English VS Korea

When I picked some songs from my song album this morning, I realized that I have more English songs than others, that is a few Chinese/ Korea/ Japanese songs.

Thinking back, my cousin, Miki loved English songs as I am as we heard and sang them always in the car during childhood, especially Westlife's. I still love English songs.

And I don't remember when she loves to listen to Korea songs and anti-English songs. She even introduces me to watch a Korean drama called "He's Beautiful" or "原来是美男啊". She's addicted to Korean stuff. Honestly, at first I reluctant to watch it. HA-HA. But anyway, I've watched it till the last episode. C:

I searched for Usher's new album songs a few days ago. I've been waiting for his new album to release for a long time. And finally, it's out now. Too bad, I only find two songs are nice-"Hey Daddy (Daddy's Home)" and "Papers". I feel a bit disappointed. :(

Tell you a thing. Miki hates Usher. Not only his songs, but his appearance too. She says Usher has grey skin. Her words made me looked puzzled at a sudden. I was thinking "What? Grey skin? How come? His skin is not grey."

I think she loves those guys with fair-skinned or..smooth-skinned? No wonder she always says U-Know who's from TVXQ is her husband. x)

It's My Convocation Day~!

Travex Convocation 2010

Everyone was busy to take photos after wearing the graduation robes.

This was the number I got- No.10 (I was the 10th person to go up the stage)

Cameras ready~

Photographers said there was too much noise.

It was hard to take a nice one because of the dim light.

This was given by my dear mom. =D

I was very happy to receive it. ^^

Thanks, mom. =)

After shooting pictures, it was time to take lunch.

I guess everybody was so damn hungry at that time as I was. Haha..

Grab a plate~

My friend, You Jun won a small prize in the game.

It was a Shell Gas cup. Thanks for giving it to me. xD

Thanks to the photographers for shooting those nice photos.

My cousin, Evelyn and her mom VS Me and my mom

Thanks to Rachel for uploading all those photos for me.

Lastly, congratulations to every IATA student. =)

Charmen will miss you all. xD

Remember

Lately, I spend my waking hours in front of my laptop (except that, I have nothing else to do). Day after day, my brain will be rust. Haha..

Seeing my friends go to college and busy for their schoolwork, I realized that I start to miss my study life. Change from study life to working life is quite challenging for me. I must do the best.

No more lazing around and daydreaming.

I still remember that Mr.Sathar, my former lecturer let all of my coursemates to play a game which needs to think carefully before you answer. Let's see whether you can answer it correctly or not.

The shaded parts cannot be drawn.

For segment A- divide it into two equal parts. [Done? Okay. It's easy, right? Let's move to the next one.]

Segment B- divide it into three equal parts. [easy]

Segment C- divide it into four equal parts. [hmm..this one is hard. Think carefully. =) ]

Segment D- divide it into five equal parts. [simplicity]

Completed? The answer is just below.

Sweating~

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, it's boiling hot, I mean. Not only day time, even night time too. So, what drinks will you choose?

1500ml natural mineral water?

A large ice blended drinks which makes you freeze?

Coca Cola which has a lot of gas bubbles help to quench your thrist?

Or.. beer? =P

Lime and plum/Loh hon guo?

Hmm.. I will definitely choose lime and plum because of slightly sore throat. =)

A Visit To...

A visit to...? To where? Let me give you a tip: When you see there are many kinds of wine with a cheap price and you can buy many of them at the same time, what do you think the place would be?

The answer is Langkawi. =) It's scorching hot here, 33 degree Celcius (the pilot announced). Even the ice can melt within 10 seconds. I kid you not.

Here is the Black Sand Beach. As you can see part of the sand is black.

One piece of the black-mix-with-brown sand was taken by me. =D

Lighthouse in a closer view

Ship

And ships. xD

There is a herd of cows grazing in the field.

Sunset (part 1): the sun is going down

Sunset (part 2): the sun is going further down

Sunset (part 3): the sun is changing its colour to orange [look like an egg yolk] ^^

Sunset (last part): the sun is going to say goodbye to everyone after 30 minutes. =(

THE END

Thanks for viewing C:
