huh... MoNeY????

When I started my life here I found that everything is change such as my provision daily expenditure.. money, money, money…. Where can I get it from??? My head become spinning thinking about it. Pay this and pay that. Study fee, buy books, block fee, level fee, buy for my necessity and many more. Try to total up it. How much we should spend to all that..?? sometime it give burden to me to pay all that because I am not come from a rich family.. I try to think how to find money by myself so that I am not going to call my parents ask money from them. I also try to save my money. Not using in the wrong way. However I am still find the meaning of ‘the correct way’. Parents, teachers and others always tell me to use the money wisely but did they mentioned on how to make it done?? Till now, I found 3 categories of students manage their money that are ;
1. Only use or withdraw their money just for the important things. They try to save for their future. But sometime others will think that student like them are snobbish.
2. Not care on how they allocate their money but they will have their saving for a week.
3. Never or ever care about saving. Tend to use their without realize. They will ask money from their parents whenever they are run out of money.

If you are in my condition, what will you do to solve your financial problem and which categories above show how you manage your money…

Snake Massage..


Snake massage is one of the latest massage therapy that can only be found in north of Africa. Each treatment will only cost you for 70 bucks! This therapy was introduced by an animal lover, Ada Barak.

At first, she kept certain species of snakes as her pets. Then after one of her friends said that holding a snake is soothing then she started to realize that her scaly friend (snake) can actually make money~~

Right after that, she opened up her own massage center which introduced

The types of snakes used for this massage is California and King snake, Corn snakes, and Milk snakes.

The size of the snakes used depends on the part of our body that needed to be massaged. For muscle and joint pain, a large snake is used because larger size snake give deeper touch towards the body surface. Where else the smaller size snake is used for smoother surface such as human face.

In each treatment there are six snakes been use. This therapy had been recognized not only by adolescent, but also well known among nannies. One of the old lady said that this therapy is really relaxing and calm.




I know this might sound new to some of you.

This info comes from my senior, while she is doing her research project.

I found it quite interesting.

Love to share with all of you.

"don't stress, don't stress, don't stress.."

Assalamualaikum.

It seems like our days are getting really busy this semester. And some of us just couldn’t stand it and get stressed. Like me.

Here are some tips I would like to share on how to relieve stress.

First, TAKE A DEEP BREATH. Yeah. A really deep one. You will feel like a part of your stress will be gone as you exhale out. Do it a couple of times.

Second, do some EXERCISES. How about spend some time jog around the lake? I do it every week on weekend with my roommates if I got nothing to do in the morning. Regular exercise will help release the stress and tension in the body. Plus, you will be much healthier. What do you feel when your body feels much stronger? You will feel great and happy of course! HAPPY = NO STRESS!

Third, HEALTHY EATING. We need to eat balanced food. I have a friend whose just eat rice and a chicken for lunch. Hey, where’s the vege girl? Eating healthily can give you more energy, and help you lose weight too. Eat at every 3-4 hours, but in a small quantity. Biscuits or bread can do.

Next, HAVE ENOUGH SLEEP. There are people who prefer to sleep at 3 a.m. in the morning, just because they have a quiz the next day. For me, even if you study like your brain going to explode, just imagine how are you going to take the quiz in well condition? You will feel sleepy and hard to concentrate on the questions. In return, you’ll get exhausted and the result of the quiz will not be as good as you wish. So guys, sleep early. You’ll wake up in the morning and feeling fresh to start a new day.

Then you need to READ THE QURAN. At least one page every day. Many of us haven’t read it since we’d “khatam”..right?? Well, it’s not wrong to start it back. It will give an ultimate calmness to our heart. Just try it. It’s like, we're having a "Bluetooth connection" with ALLAH. I’m not kidding!

Another way is to SHARE YOUR STRESS with your friend. Sometimes it helps to release some of the stress by talking to a close friend or family about your problems.

Lastly, for guys, NO SMOKING. Even all the smokers keep saying that it can release their stress, but it’s only for a short period man. Once the relief wears off, you’ll feel worse. So try to avoid it.

I hope these will help us all to get through those tough times on this 2nd semester. We could become a happier and calmer person.

CRYING IS GOOD!!

Assalamualaikum to everyone..

Now, I like to share with all of you about the benefits that you can get by just crying.

While we are having some problems such as love problem,office problem and others...automatically we are facing the pressure too. So, in a way to handle it we can share the problem with our friend or someone that we can talk to and comfortable with.


But, not all people are comfortable to share their problems with others. Don't worry, there's other way to atleast reduce the pressure that they had been faced.That is just by crying.

Actually, according to biochemist William Frey, he had research and compared the normal moisturising tear with tear caused by emotion and he found that stressful tears contained ACTH or adrenocorticotrophic hormone which contains a lot of toxins, and when you cry all of the toxins will be out from you body.

So,if you feel that you can't handle it (problems) anymore,you should just cry...coz crying is good!!

L.O.V.E.

Assalammualaikum,
Hello to all my classmates and also to Miss Raihan as our English lecturer. Today is my turn to post an article. I would like to talk about love.

What is love?

It is one of the most difficult questions for the mankind. Love sometimes burdens us, although it is related to a sense of strong affection and attachment. Love is universal, as we can fall in love with anyone that fits our criteria. Nowadays, it is common for teenagers to have a boyfriend or girlfriend. They are willing to do anything for their loved one. Some of them even leave their parents just to be with their partner.

Love is sacred but most teenagers prefer to channel it in the wrong ways such as holding hands, kissing and hugging at the public places, and even adulteries. It leads to many social problems. We must love our parents more than people around us. They have sacrificed for us since we are baby until now. But nowadays, many children love their loving partner more than their parents. It should not be that way.

But the true love is for God. Many people were forgotten about the most important one that is Allah. Love with people, people will die but love with Allah is forever. He is the reason for us to live, so the right thing to do is to obey Him. That would show our love to Him.

FAVOURITE MOVIE..

Assalamualaikum..
Everybody has their own favourite movie right? I also have one. My favourite movie is twilight. For whom who does not watch this movie before, let me briefly explain what this movie is about.

For me, although this love story seems simple, but the story line attracted me. It is about a vampire(Edward Cullen) who in love with a beautiful young girl(Isabella). Edward Cullen had a big family. At first, his family can’t accept Isabella but after they get to know Isabella, they thought Isabella was no threat to them and they got along well.

There are two groups of vampire in this movie. I considered them as the good and the bad group. The good group only ate animals but the bad groups ate human for living. The bad group like to disturb Isabella because they knew Isabella is a human. They like to attack and follow her everywhere she go. Edward Cullen always be there when Isabella needed him.

This was the first time i saw a movie that a vampire fall in love with the human. Although it seems weird, but i think this movie is interesting.

That’s all. Thank you.

BANANA???


Assalamualaikum..

what's up guys!!!

Now is my turn to post a story.Hope you enjoy this story...

Addin who is a kindergarten teacher, organized one interesting game for her students. Each student must bring one plastic bag with a banana, each written with the name of the person they hate the most on the next day. Therefore, the amount of bananas is based on the number of people they hate.

The next day, every students bring the plastic bag with their bananas inside. Some of students bring two ,five or and the higher are eight pieces. All the banana have written the name of people that they hate.

“Now, keep all the banana. Don't forgot to bring the banana everywhere you go in a week. This is the game. After one week, we will know the result” said Cikgu Addin. All student keep their banana in bag.

Day by days, the banana start change the color and smell stink. Students start nag and angry. They don't like the game anymore because, not only their bag heavy but their body also smelly. Some students don't want to continue the game and some are crying.

After a week, Cikgu Addin students felt very happy because the game had over. No more burden and smelly thing they have to face every days.

“Okay, after a week what do you feel when bring the banana everywhere inside your bag?” asked Cikgu Addin. At the same time, all students said that they hate the game. Because of the game, they lost their friends. Worst than that, they had to sleep, ate, bath, play and watching TV with that smell.

“That will happened if we kept hate feelings to other people inside our heart. The smell of hate will pollute our heart and we bring it everywhere we go. If you cannot face with the smell of bananas only in one week,just imagine if you keep hatred whole your life”telling Cikgu Addin

Addin tell her student to trough the hatred. Forgiveness is the best. Loving is more good than hated. Do not hold hatred or grudges against others. Like the rotten bananas so are our hearts.Just think about it...

Assalammualaikum…

Today is my turn to post something in our blog. Today I would share about my race. I am Melanau. Melanau is one of the ethnics group in Sarawak. Sure you all know where I come from, right? Actually, I not really know about Melanau. I just want to share to you all what I know only what was I search in the internet about Melanau ethnics. In past, Melanau was Christians but nowadays, most are Muslim. Do not be shock when you know someone from Sarawak have same races but different religions. You want to know something, even though there are Christians, they use “Bin” and “Binti” in their names likes us. That is the unique of Melanau. Did you all agree with me?? There are some examples of Melanau foods; ‘linut’, ‘tebaloi’, and ‘umai’. Linut is made from sagu flour and stir it with hot water. It looks like gum. You eat it with chopstick and ‘cecah’ with sambal.


Melanau can be divided by six different groups. There are Melanau Mukah, Melanau Dalat, Melanau Oya, Melanau Matu-Daro-Rejang, Melanau Ba’ie( Bintulu ), Melanau Balingian, and Melanau Miri. I know all the group of Melanau ethnics except Melanau Miri. I never heard about it before. I got this information in the internet. The Melanau languages can be divided by eleven. There are Mukah, Matu-Daro, Rajang, Kanowit, Oya, Bintulu, Balingian, Sibu, Tanjong and Seru. I am a Melanau Matu that is the same with Melanau Matu-Daro-Rejang. For your information, even though Melanau, our languages and pronunciation not the same but in certain we have the same words and the same meaning. In other case, the words are the same but different meaning from other groups. Melanau Ba’ie is the most difficult to understand because it dialect are too deep. If you go to Bintulu, you will know what I am saying about. If you there you will feel you in Thailand. Actually, it is just my opinion. I understand all the languages of Melanau, almost all the words except Melanau Miri because it my first heard about it but I can speaks Melanau Matu-Daro-Rejang, Melanau Igan and Melanau Ba’ie. But I really good speak in my dialect, that is Melanau Matu-Daro-Rejang. There are some examples of Melanau words with different dialects. You all can see the differences and the similarities and also you all can learn this all new words.

  • 1. MELANAU MATU-DARO

    MAKAN = KEMAN
    MINUM = TUTENG
    AIR = ANUM
    SIAPA = SAI
    AWAK = MO
    NAMA = NGADAN
    RUMAH = LEBUK
    APA = WAKNO
    KHABAR = BRITAH
    BAGUS = DA’AU
    MANDI = TEMUK
    BILA = PIDAN
    DUDUK = MUNGUK
    BERDIRI = TIGER
    BARING = BELEG

  • 2. MELANAU BA’IE (BINTULU)
    MAKAN = PENYAK
    MINUM = SUKBAK
    AIR = BAK
    SIAPA = SAI
    AWAK = I’KAU’
    NAMA = NYARAN
    RUMAH = UMAK
    APA = NAH
    IKAN = INJEN
    MANDI = MENDUK
    DUDUK = KUQDUQ
    JALAN = MELAKAU
    MANA = DEMAH

Hopefully, you all enjoy reading my articles. Thanks for the comments. Sorry because I use Malays words. If you all want to know more about Melanau culture, you all can search by yourself in the internet.

FACTS OF LIFE.............

Assalamualaikum…

In this world, it’s hard to know what’s wrong and what’s right. And sometimes the truth is hard to accept just like the story that I want to tell you. This story is about two best friends who had fallen in love with the same person. Keiko and Mariko had been together for very long time. They had studies at the same primary and secondary school.

They shared all their secrets together. After they had finished their studies, they started to work and that’s where this story begins. Keiko is a doctor in a big hospital in Hiroshima while Mariko is a cop in the same city. A man Soichiro a police inspector met Keiko as he got shot and Keiko is the doctor who had to take care of him. Keiko called him ‘Rat’ as he afraid with inoculation and she didn’t know his truly name because he only gave his family name. Soichiro had fallen in love with Keiko at the first sight. But he didn’t realize that Mariko who consider as his sister loved him too. Mariko always told Keiko about Soichiro. Keiko and Soichiro broke off when she knew Soichiro’s real name. Keiko told Soichiro to take a good care of Mariko. She didn’t want her best friends to be sad.

But when Mariko came to know the real thing, she told Soichiro to find Keiko back. Mariko knew that she didn’t deserve him and she knew the reality. However, Keiko wanted Mariko and Soichiro to be together…

Would you tell me who is right and who is wrong??

SOMETHING SECRET.................

Assalamualaikum..

Today is my turn to post an article.

Now, I’d like to share my hobby to all the reader in this blog. Everyone in this world has their own hobby right? My hobby is making “Pudding” or it also can called as Dadih.
At the same time, I would like to share with you on how to make Dadih. For your information, it is very easy. You don’t need a lot of ingredients. All you need are four main ingredients. They are milk, some sugar, pudding jelly powder and hot water.
First you have to buy the “pudding jelly powder”. You can choose what flavour you want for the pudding.

Let us to follow the method of cooking.....
1. Prepare 3 litre of water and 1 tea cup of sugar (120gm) into a pot.

2. Add 1 can of evaporated milk (405gm). Turn on the flame, stir the mixture until boiling.

3. Turn off the flame and slowly pour 1 packet of “Sukas Pudding Jelly Powder” into pot and stir continuously for 2 minutes.

4. Add malic fruit sugar (that had already given inside the pack of Pudding Jelly Powder) and stir 2-3 minutes.

5. Pour into cup or mould, wait until setting before put into refrigerator.

In my opinion, Dadih can be served any time of the day. I promise I’ll bring some dadih to class for everyone to try. So, please tell me if you don’t like to eat dadih so that I’ll know how many to make and do tell me the flavour that you prefer most.

To Miss Raihan, do you like to eat dadih? If yes , I can make for you....
That all from me... don’t forget to try it...

April Fools' Day

Today is my turn to share my story to all of you. I am going to write about the true meaning of April Fools’ Day. It is believed that people started to celebrate April Fools’ Day during the downfall of the Islamic government in Spain. After centuries of living in Granada, Spain, the Islamic government was attacked by Christian soldiers. The Islam’s that live in Spain (Moors) were forced to stay in their houses to save their lives. The Christian soldiers were not satisfied and decided to abolish the Islamic population in Spain. On 1st April, the Christian soldiers searched thoroughly and destroyed the houses of the Islam residents. They then killed all of them including the Muslim men, women and children without sympathy. After reading this, I hope everyone won’t celebrate April Fools’ Day anymore as this is a bad reminder to the rest of the Islamic population.

tHE ExchagE

Can all of you realise the difference of our relationship when we were at part 1 and now (part2)? Ok, this is my question and I want you to think first before go through this article...
So, for this time, I would like to bring you to think about the relationship among us. Are you still remembering on how each of us behaves when we were at the baby stage (part 1)?
Ok, just straight to the point. Lets we check on every side of angel. Start with us ourselves. Of course all of us were felt so strange when the first time came to dais 1a, right? New environment as well as the new friends was made us to behave like that. By the way, guys, it is very simple as ABC. The person who was very friendly will make easy to attract his or her new clique. While those who is very quiet of course will accompany with the wall (like me). At that time class was very bored, right!!. And I think there was not much relationship between boys and girls (correct me if I’m wrong) what make me to say like that is due to the obvious reason- the boys will always sat at the back as one group, like do not willing to separate even one second (opps.., sorry boys) while the girls like want to conquer the whole class (what do you think, girls?). In addition, I really believe that all of you know that there were some groups among us. I don’t want to mention it because I’m totally believed that all of you know about this.
And on 30.12.2008, we were come back to uitm Melaka as the part 2 students. Surprisingly, we were seeing many changes. Not only the development of uitm, but also among us. I’m, for my part; see that our class is more wonderful right now. The relationship between us also become better and better. They are also some of our members that can stand out of his or her group. And I think this blog also make us closer. However, if you not agree with my point of view, don’t forget to mention it in your comment. Before I end this article, I hope that we can be more uniting in the future. Be more generous in helping among us in order to achieve our dreams. Last but not least, thanks to one of my member who was give me inspiration indirectly when we were study at the below of the library. Wassalam....

"sTiNgy, or gAnGster..??"

Today I like to share with all of you the story that I have found in The Star, 4 February 2009.
A weird case do by an Austrian woman in Vienna that having ignored a host parking tickets, a police official in the town of Graz confirmed 3 February.
By ignoring 700 attempts by police to notify her parking violations in the past two years, 38 years old woman “collected” about €115, 000 fines.
She is unable to pay and has started a 500 day prison term.
Pity to her, cause of stubborn to buy parking ticket about €1, she will be prison more than 1years.
I hope all readers not be like that, old but gangster.
We must be matured in thinking.
Thank you for reading.

A Frightening Night

I woke up with a start. The room was pitch black and I was sweating. Why was I sweating? It was cold and the air-conditioner was on. I looked out the window. It was still dark. After a few seconds, I noticed why I was feeling very nervous. A small figure was standing right at the edge of my bed. My body trembled as I figure out what to do. I tried to scream for help but nothing came out of my mouth. I tried to move but my body lay plastered to the bed. As I sat still on my bed, I noticed the figure coming nearer. When the figure was inches away from me, I saw the face illuminated by the moonlight shining from out the window.

Seeing the face frightened me. I have never seen a face so fierce but also odd-looking. I wasn’t quite sure what to make of the small figure. He looked like an old man with a child’s body. There was also a long deep scar that ran across his face. I stared at him, gaping. He startled me when he said “Hi Susan. I’m Caleb.” I was shocked to death when he said my name. I started to talk rapidly, asking him questions. It all passed by in a blur. “How do you know my name? How did you get into my room?” I asked. As I sat there waiting for his answer, all he did was give me a big smile. It wasn’t a friendly smile as his mouth was filled with sharp teeth.

After a few minutes, he finally answered. “I’m sorry if I frightened you but I’m only doing my job. Listen to me closely, do not scream or I will hurt you. I am also going to ask you nicely to follow me. Don’t make me force you.” I was shocked. Why would this guy want me? As if he heard what went through my head, he answered “Under strict orders, I’ve come to take you away. You might think you’re a normal girl but you have no idea. Do you know that you’re adopted? Do you know who your real parents are?” Like a stab to my heart, what he said was hurtful. Is it true? Was I really adopted? I couldn’t decide whether I should believe him or not.

I sat there thinking and wondering. I finally decided that I had to run away from the man. I started thinking of ways to escape. I looked around frantically. The window was closed and the only way out was through the door. I knew it was a big risk but I had to take it. So, I darted towards the door. Halfway towards the door, the man suddenly blocked my path. Then out of nowhere he multiplied and surrounded me. Now there we’re more than ten of him! They even started to laugh really loudly at me, like a pack of hyenas.

I didn’t know what to do so I closed my eyes and started to scream. With all my might, I ran towards them thinking that I could run past them. While I was running, I lost my balance and fell. My head hit the floor and I saw stars. As soon as I fell, I felt my right cheek burning with pain. I knew I had to run. The men were after me but I couldn’t force myself to open my eyes. After a few minutes have passed, I heard a shrill voice saying “Woi, Susu! Wake Up!!!”

What a relief! That was just a nightmare. Before my mum could start yelling at me again, I quickly asked, “Mum, am I adopted?” Without answering, she just grinned and walked away.

This tragedy occured in july 2007 when the parent disciplining their child.Because of very angry with the kid manners, the parents beat her with belts, dunked her head in cold water and threw her onto a tile floor which cause fracturing her skull.Situation went worst when the kid died.Then the couple decided to stuffed her body in a plastic box and dumping in Galveston Bay in Texas.
Police began to investigate when her body was found by a fisherman.The kid's identity was mystery untill her paternal grandmother saw an artist's sketch of the girl and told the authorities that she thought it was her granddaughter.Because of this case, the mother was punished jailed for her remaining life.The father punishment of murder trial will be held later.

KRYPTONITE STONE



A new mineral discovered in Serbia has a chemical makeup almost identical to that given for the fictional mineral kryptonite in the film Superman Returns.
In the movie, and the DC Comics comic-book series on which it’s based, kryptonite is an alien mineral — usually a bright, glowing green — that saps Superman’s strength whenever he gets too close to it.
In real life, the mineral is a sodium lithium boron silicate hydroxide — a hard, white mineral with individual crystals no larger than five microns across. It doesn’t glow green, although it reported fluoresces pink-orange under ultraviolet light. It was discovered by geologists who work for Rio Tinto, the world’s third-largest mining company, who were exploring for borates in Serbia.
Unable to identify the mineral, the geologists sent a sample to the Natural History Museum in London, who, with the help of Canada’s National Research Council, mapped out the chemical structure.
It was only after the identification was complete that the similarity to the fictional material was discovered.
“Towards the end of my research, I searched the Web using the mineral’s chemical formula — sodium lithium boron silicate hydroxide — and was amazed to discover that same scientific name, written on a case of rock containing kryptonite stolen by Lex Luthor from a museum in the film Superman Returns,” Dr. Chris Stanley, a mineralogist at the Natural History Museum, said in a statement.
“The new mineral does not contain fluorine (which it does in the film), and is white rather than green but, in all other respects’, the chemistry matches that for the rock containing kryptonite,” he concluded.
Sadly for comic fans, the mineral cannot actually be named kryptonite. The mineral in the fictional series was named after the planet Krypton, but there is also an element on the periodic table called krypton. According to the rules of the International Mineralogical Association, which governs the naming of all new minerals, naming the mineral “kryptonite” would imply that it contains krypton, which it does not. The mineral has been named jadeites after the area where it was discovered. The first scientific description of it will appear in the European Journal of Mineralogy later this year.

Avatar: The Last Airbender


Assalamualaikum.Actually I don't know what to write, but since Miss Raihan said that I can write anything that I want, I decided to share with you guys about my favourite anime named Avatar The Last Airbender.
This story is all about Aang, the avatar.Aang is the last airbender and the job of the avatar is to save the world.There is four human civilization called the Water Tribes, the Earth Kingdom, the Air Nomads and the Fire Nation.Each nation has its own natural element and has benders that can manipulate the element to something that powerfull or I can call it magic.The Avatar needs to learn all of four elements in order to defeat the evil.The evil here is prefer to the Fire Nation because of their king called Fire Lord being cruel to take over all of the nation.
Basically this anime has three seasons called Book 1, Book 2, and Book 3 but I like the most is Book 3 because it is the ending of this story.In this season, Aang has learned and conquer all of the four elements.On the day of Sozin's Comet arrival, the Fire Lord starts his plan to destroy all the nations to make a new nation under his power.Aang try to stop him and the hard battle start.
What make me proud of Aang is because of his principle in life.Although he has the power to kill the Fire Lord, he decides not do it.He just take the Fire Lord able in bending away.That was the proper way in stop the Fire Lord though all his friends and the last avatar tell him to kill the Fire Lord.
I don't know if you guys can imagine all things that I wrote but I recommend to you guys to watch this anime.This anime is a full packages of a good story because it has actions, humour, romance, fantasy, and adventure.That's all from me.Assalamualaikum.
