Newspaper-in-Education (NiE) Contest 2011

2011-11-01T22:51:00.004+08:00

This year’s Newspaper-in-Education (NiE) contest was organised by The Star and Pizza Hut in Cooperation with the Education Ministry. The Mag Inc 2011 contest, running for the third consecutive year, is themed Speak Out! We worked in a team of five (Mabel Low, Jane Lam, Lee Suet Yeng, Beh Heng Jian and me) to create a three page mini magazine and a three-minute video that addressed stereotyping. The teacher-in-charge is Pn Shahfinaz. Our team, SPLOOSH, emerged as the champion for the video clip category.

The most crucial step in pre-production was drawing out storyboard. I did the general plotting while Mabel drew the storyboard. Once we got that done, we planned the setting in terms of where to shoot the scenes. Then we did casting and arranged dates to shoot. Communication skill was vital to persuade our schoolmates to star in our video but we were lucky to find Eva, Chin Yoong, Chee Gen and the rest of the basketball team who voluntarily helped us out.

What happened was such a blur; the production itself. Mabel handled the camera while I gave directions when necessary. All of us starred in the video and of course with addition guest stars from our school. We followed the storyboard and had to figure out which angles to shoot for the best cinematography on the spot. We didn’t expect for it to be so time consuming. It was necessary though in order to create a multiple-camera setup effect.

Next is the post-production; video editing. This took the longest time and also the most frustrating one. We compiled all the videos, arranged them into sequences and edited them using Videopad. Jane brought her laptop to school and all of us edited it together. As the time limit was 3 minutes, we had to keep revising and cutting unnecessary parts right to the last second. After finish editing the video, it was time for audio. We have narration and background music. We chose two songs and Jane merged them together using Audacity. I recorded the narration using the same software. Then the audio was added back into the video.

On the 21^st September, came the grand finals in Kota Damansara. At the beginning, we were quite relaxed, watching presentations by other schools. Then it was the video clip category’s turn. We watched the other two videos from SMK Aminuddin Baki, KL and SMK Saujana Impian, Selangor. Then it was our turn. We were very nervous but mostly proud because “Look, it’s real! People are watching our video! And they laughed too! After that, the judges and audience gave scores for our video.

The highlight came when the results were announced. The emcee announced SPLOOSH and we jumped in joy. We were all given an iPOD Nano (worth RM549), RM100 pizza voucher and certificate. There were also two journalists who interviewed us. It was fun to feel like a celebrity for a day. There were also well wishes from students of other schools as well. Some of them were shocked to find out that we came from Ipoh, as is we come from a kampung place and wouldn’t know much about video production.

The whole journey was a great experience. It taught us that we can succeed in anything if we put enough dedication on it. We would like to sincerely thank Pn Shafinaz for giving guidance and keeping us on schedule and also not forgetting Eva, Chin Yoong, Chee Gen and the basketball team members for willing to help us out.

A Case Study

2011-09-06T15:11:00.003+08:00

A woman wearing a 9 carat engagement ring walks into a bank to use the Cash Deposit machine. Due to her inexperience, she fumbles with the machine and has a hard time with it. A man behind her watches her impatiently. After a while she finally manages to insert RM 2000 into the machine. However it rejects 5 pieces of RM50 (RM250). She takes back the money and leaves in hurry, assuming that the transaction has completed. As a result she did not take the receipt. The machine is still operating and one can abort the transaction anytime to retrieve the RM 1750.

The man who is standing behind her contemplates that fact. He is a 50 year old single unemployed odd job worker who has been laid off for 6 months. His savings has dried up after paying for bills and his daily necessities. He thinks hard about whether or not to take the money.

Option A :
He takes the money.

Justification :
He is having a hard time financially. The money will help him to survive for two months while looking for a new job. The rich woman would probably not notice a thing. He considers himself an act of charity for her.

Option B :
He helps her to finish the transaction and puts the receipt on top of the machine hoping that she will collect it back later.

Reason :
Never take other people's belonging no matter what situation you're in financially.

I personally choose option B. It is only morally right to do so.
However I make that decision because I'm still well fed and I have a roof over my head. What if I am in the opposite situation? Would I still make the same choice? It is difficult to say unless I am in the same situation as him.

Sometimes I wonder if morality shapes people or is it the other way round.

Of Loyalty and Freedom

2011-05-14T22:21:00.004+08:00

This post is a very long comment on a link that I was tagged in Facebook.

Comment 1. Identification of Ethnicity

I feel that it doesn't really matter whether you state your name or not because people are going to know what race you are by reading your name anyway. So I don't see the need of stating my race. Even if somehow the Government finally decides to do away with this system, the Government is not treating the root of the problem.

The need for identification of ethnicity can be justified because after our Independence, the economic gap between races was wide (the Chinese were affluent while the Bumiputeras were not). Hence there was a need to help to bridge the gap by identifying one's race to give financial help to them under numerous agencies.

However, that was years ago and many Bumiputeras have joined the middle- and upper- classes and there's no need for ethnic-based policies or ethnic- based quotas. Instead we should help those who are from low-income groups. There are many unfortunate Bumiputeras, Chinese and Indians that need help for money, education and jobs.

Comment 2. Working in foreign countries.

I agree with the commentor but only if the high skilled workers come back to Malaysia when they are still relatively young and willing to share the knowledge and experience they have learned overseas. I respect entreprenuers like Jimmy Choo for willing to spread his expertise by planning to open a shoe making institute. However, there are many professionals who are unwilling to come back which saddens me very much.

Comment 3. Love for Malaysia.

We were 'pendatang'. It's a fact. But so are the Indians and also the Malays. The only non-pendatang people in this country are the Orang Asli.

Our fore fathers have worked hard to achieve Independence, but the Malays have worked harder. That is also a fact. But the Malays, Chinese and Indians have worked together to make our Constituiton in 1948 and have build the country to what it is today. The country belongs to everyone not just the Malays.

Personally I don't take offense when some stupid Malays call us 'pendatang' because I know that I'm not some illegal immigrant who work here temporarily and will fly home once I've saved enough money. My parents pay their taxes and contribute to the economy. I know my rights as a citizen and obey the law. I know that the majority of Malays are not irrational and oppose to us being called 'pendatang', like this one.

It took 200 years for the USA to accept a black President. And Malaysia is not even more than 60 years old. I believe that it takes time for everyone to accept one and another. Although 1 Malaysia has many flaws, it's definitely heading towards that direction.

Other comments

'most leaders of the country supports racism openly'
Refer to previous paragraph. And too bad some politicians just say and do the dumbest things sometimes.

'the citizens are always living under fear, constantly controlled and fed with media BS'
That's why I've ignored the news in Utusan regarding the UMNO and Christian/Muslim issue. First of all, I've always avoided reading Utusan because it focuses on news regarding the Malays and sometimes the readers send in racist and ignorant comments that just make my blood boil. Secondly, I don't really care about it because they are just making a big fuss over nothing to help a certain party to get more votes in the coming General Election.

Freedom of Press is a big problem that remains unsolved in this country. That's why I never rely on news from one source only. Still, this is not a reason for not being patriotic to a country.

'yet the government does ntg'
If you feel like the Government is not doing anything, then vote the party that you feel will do something lo. So simple.

Conclusion, you are free to be loyal to the country that you're born in, you are also free to be loyal to any country you like. The choice is yours. I choose the former.

Mahathir kiasu?

2010-11-30T11:31:00.002+08:00

I would like to retain the Twin Towers as the highest buildings in Malaysia," Mahathir, who retired in 2003 after 22 years in power, told a gathering of industry leaders.

"At the moment we don't need any tower higher than that. We should build the 100-storey tower, but maybe a little bit later when I am not around," said the 85-year-old Mahathir.

The Petronas Twin Towers were the world's tallest buildings when completed in 1998. They featured a year later in the climax of the Hollywood heist movie "Entrapment" starring Sean Connery and Catherine Zeta-Jones.

Najib, who wants the new tower built by 2020 as part of an ambitious new infrastructure push, has said the project can become a business hub and that the Petronas Twin Towers originally attracted similar criticism.

But Mahathir's intervention could encourage the opposition being expressed in online campaigns and by political parties. He remains an influential figure in Malaysian politics and led a campaign to unseat Najib's predecessor.

Mahathir was himself an advocate of mega-projects when in power. He oversaw the building of a multi-billion-dollar administrative capital, Putrajaya, and launched the national carmaker Proton during his marathon premiership.

Well, in my opinion, it's best to fix things before making new things. :)

Things in A Car

2010-06-19T00:44:00.004+08:00

*Why is it so hard to start a blog post? Everything I type sounds so bloody awkward*

Okay, I'm just going straight to the point. Yesterday I washed my 'half-car'. For some reason I felt bonded with it. I made sure I can see my own reflection on every cm per square of the car's surface. And the inside of the car was so clean you can eat sushi right off the dashboard like those 'special sushi' that involves naked girls.

*Fine, maybe the sushi part was exaggerated*

So, in order to make the car more cozy for me, I thought of putting some of my stuff in it. Right now, the glove compartment contains my mum's very Cina CDs (think Hokkien songs) and some odd 90's English love songs. I've also found a pair of her cool Dior sunglasses but since I'm so smart they don't fit me because my head is too big. There was also an empty box of tissue paper on the backseat.

I restocked tissue paper and made a mental note to buy a bottle of good smelling essential oil since the current bottle is finishing. The current bottle of sandalwood essential oil is finishing. Yay! I'm tired of smelling 'heong' (joss-stick) all the time.

Now, I've thought putting some of my own CDs in the car but most of the songs I'm currently listening to are in my computer. Which means I have to burn them and that makes me feel even more like a pirate because most of the songs are downloaded from Limewire. So I resorted to just stick to the radio then. Plus I was lazy too.

I did put my own RM20 sunglasses in the car. But the boxless-sunglasses looked pathetic against my mum's posh sunglasses box. Oh well, at least they fit me and make me look like a Mafia. A Mafia in a 'P' car.

That was all. I couldn't think of anything to put in the car anymore. And because I'm such a nerd, I googled "Things to have in car". Here is the list I have found.

1. Map/GPS
Come on I'm just driving around Ipoh. I don't need a map for that.

2. Umbrella
There are 2 in the car. I don't understand why we need 2 umbrellas.

3. Pen
There is a pen but we never use it.

4. Torchlight
There is one but the batteries have died. Mental note: Change batteries. Type AAA

5. First Aid Kit
Ok fine, I'll grab something.

6. Tire gauge
Just go to the petrol kiosk to check la. No need to buy.

7.Lip balm
Har har, it'll melt like ice cream in the car. I'll probably have one in my pocket/bag anyway.

8. Candy bar
Short trip only la and fat genes run in my family. Solution: Replace candy bar with sugar-free mints.

9. Handphone charger
I don't need my phone glued to my ear 24/7

There were some other tools mentioned but they're too boring to be mentioned here.

I wish to have a hybrid car one day so that I won't cringe everytime I go to Shell.

What I'm Doing Currently

2010-05-16T16:13:00.004+08:00

Hello, it's been quite a while right? I'm back!

Yeap, my carefree days are over and now I'm in Lower 6 at SMI. I'm assigned to the Science stream so I've got no choice but to stay in the Biology class for now. Appeal to transfer stream can only be made on 24th May. I'll know the result earliest in 2 weeks time once the forms have been sent. Well, the goverment is obviously trying to make things hard for us to keep the 6:4=Science:Arts ratio. If I can't transfer to art, I'm seriously considering to go college instead of wasting time to appeal again. In the mean time, I have to study on my own for now.

Culture wise, there is one word to describe it; overwhelming. Day one was definitely an interesting experience since there were so many boys from all shapes and sizes. I felt like a fish out of water wearing a butt ugly uniform. The first 4 days of the orientation week was a mixture of fun and boredom. We just sat in the hall listening to talks about discipline matters, introduction to the subjects and other miscellaneous stuff. The fun part was the introduction to different societies and clubs. Although the thought of joining co-curricular activities sounds like a drag, most of the presidents have a sense of humour and gave an engaging promotion. The student council members were fun too. And Yen Chiew was obviously the Tai Kar Jie (big sister) there.

The bodies I plan to join are:
Chess Club - Just because it doesn't involve the sun and will sound great in my admission letter to university
Kadet Bomba - The uniformed unit with the least things to do.
ADAMS (Arts, drama and music society) - Need I say more?

I have also purchased (that's right, purchased) application forms to join the prefectorial and librarian board. Why not eh? 10% chance is still chance. Let's see if I get selected or not.

Recess time is pretty chaotic. I'll make another blog post on that.

The library which has a fancy name called Marian Library is huge, at least in terms of space. The number of tables and chairs is disproportionate to the space of the libarary. The book selection is poor. There are few books, both fictional and non-fictional books and most of them are old and dusty. The book racks are placed at a corner, as if noone cares about them. But they do have a lot of reference books and about 8 Dell mini laptops to use. If I have the opportunity I want to do a reorganise the library.

The cool thing about SMI is that it has lecture hall and rooms and good computer lab. The 5 star toilets are okay. I can't comment about the studies part yet. I have to wait and see if I can transfer or not. That part is really annoying. Anyway, overall I am fond of the school.

So, to sum up, I'm glad to be a useful person again after a 5 month hiatus. I couldn't be happier to return to school life. And meet my friends everyday! And of course, make some new friends too.

I'll update you on the studies part once I settle the transferring stream business.

Competitions etc.
I've mentioned about the film script in my previous post. Well, turns out that if my film proposal is accepted I have to be available to work on the production for 3 months. Too bad, I have school obligations.

But I did submit my essay about climate change to the Commonwealth Essay Competition earlier this month. The odds of winning this is low though.
I've also applied to take part in the Nkabom 2010 programme. It's a youth leadership programme that will take place in Rwanda, Africa organised by the Commonwealth. I do look forward to be selected for this and I've put in effort to answer the questions they gave.

Right, the next project is yet another essay competition! The deadline is next month, better start writing now while I'm still relatively free..

" Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of other’s opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”
- Steve Jobs

Here is something I want to share with you guys.

What Was Your Childhood Dream Job? by Quinn Otterman

When I was a youngling, new to the world and its joys, my brother turned to me and told me what he would be when he grew up. He was, naturally, going to be a soldier and a hero, and fight to protect me and the whole family. Quite a noble aspiration for a boy of 9 (and one he actually achieved 20 years later).

But then he turned to me, a child at the tender age of 5, and asked me what it was I wanted to be. One might expect a child so young, who has only seen a fraction of the world, to not be sure what career to pursue later in life. But not me. I knew exactly what I wanted.

When I grew up, I was going to be a lion.

"You can't be a lion! Mom, tell her she can't be a lion!"

But that's not what my mother said. "She can be a lion if she wants to." Beaming with pride at the prospect of my awesome future career, I spent the rest of the day communicating via roar.

Of course, I was only five and perhaps a little misguided. As I grew older my eyes were opened to the world: lions were noble beasts, but mayhaps an inpractical career choice. It might, after all, be more prudent to be a bat or a raccoon. Perhaps, if I were to be particularly ambitious, I could be a dragon.

And on the playground, I was all these things, and my friends frequently shared these things with me. That is until we hit the preteen years, and suddenly nobody wanted to be lions or dragons at all. It would be embarrassing. What if that cute guy in class saw us acting like that? What if nobody invited us to parties? We must stop acting like children!

How silly, I thought, Why would we be concerned about what these people thought? But they cared. They became different people then. They wore what everyone else told them to wear. They watched what everyone told them to watch. And they most certainly, absolutely, never ever tried to be something everyone told them they couldn't or shouldn't be!

Needless to say, I spent most of my teenage years as a thoroughly confused loner.

"But surely you've realized by now that you can't really be a lion."

And why not? Lions are brave. Lions take pride in themselves. Lions don't need anyone else to tell them how good they are. Lions just are. And most importantly, lions don't care so much about what everyone else thinks. Lions live how they want to live; not how everyone else tells them they should live.

I'm not five anymore.

But I still dream, every day, that I can be a lion.

p/s Sorry for not posting original stuff. I've really got nothing to say =.= I spent more time on reading instead of writing. Guess it's not doing me much good eh?

Oops, better start working on my short film script now.. (I'll probably make a post on that. Maybe.)

So, what killed the dinosaurs? - the FINAL answer!

2010-03-06T18:44:00.003+08:00

WASHINGTON (AFP) - – Dinosaurs were wiped out by a huge asteroid that smashed into Earth 65 million years ago with the force of a billion atomic bombs, scientists said, hoping to lay an age-old debate to rest once and for all.

The definitive verdict came from an international panel of experts who reviewed 20 years' worth of evidence about what caused the Cretaceous-Tertiary (KT) extinction that wiped out more than half the species on the planet.

They determined it was a massive asteroid, measuring around 15 kilometers (nine miles) wide, which smashed into what is today Chicxulub in Mexico.

The event marked a pivotal point in history because it cleared the way for mammals to become the dominant species on Earth.

"The asteroid is believed to have hit Earth with a force one billion times more powerful than the atomic bomb at Hiroshima," the researchers said in a report published in the journal Science.

"It would have blasted material at high velocity into the atmosphere, triggering a chain of events that caused a global winter, wiping out much of life on Earth in a matter of days."

The impact of the large asteroid would have "triggered large-scale fires, earthquakes measuring more than 10 on the Richter scale, and continental landslides which created tsunamis," said Joanna Morgan, a lecturer in geophysics at Imperial College, London and co-author of the study.

The asteroid hit Earth 20 times faster than a speeding bullet and exploded into a deadly mix of hot rock and gas which would have "grilled any living creature in the immediate vicinity that couldn't find shelter," said Gareth Collins, a research fellow at Imperial College.

"The final nail in the coffin for the dinosaurs happened when blasted material was ejected at high velocity into the atmosphere," shrouding the planet in darkness and causing a global winter that killed off species that "couldn't adapt to this hellish environment," added Morgan.

Another clue that the KT extinction was caused by a huge asteroid and not volcanic activity was evidence in geological records of "shocked" quartz in rock layers at KT boundary levels around the world.

Quartz is "shocked" when it is hit very quickly by a massive force -- such as a 15-kilometer-wide asteroid traveling 20 times faster than a bullet.

The KT extinction marked the end of the 160-million-year reign of the dinosaurs and allowed mammals, and eventually humans, to become the dominant species on earth.

The Madman

2010-02-20T00:14:00.003+08:00

I can't help it. I'm deprived of materials that feed the literary side of me.
May I present to you, a fantastic parable called 'How I Became A Madman' by Kahlil Gibran:

You ask me how I became a madman. It happened thus: One day, long before many gods were born, I woke from a deep sleep and found all my masks were stolen -- the seven masks I have fashioned and worn in seven lives -- I ran maskless through the crowded streets shouting, "Thieves, thieves, the cursed thieves."

Men and women laughed at me and some ran to their houses in fear of me.

And when I reached the market place, a youth standing on a house-top cried, "He is a madman." I looked up to behold him; the sun kissed my own naked face for the first time. For the first time the sun kissed my own naked face and my soul was inflamed with love for the sun, and I wanted my masks no more. And as if in a trance I cried, "Blessed, blessed are the thieves who stole my masks."

Thus I became a madman.

And I have found both freedom and safety in my madness; the freedom of loneliness and the safety from being understood, for those who understand us enslave something in us.

But let me not be too proud of my safety. Even a Thief in a jail is safe from another thief.

Eyebrow update

2010-01-12T00:09:00.003+08:00

Papa: You did your eyebrows??!
Me: Err...yea..
Papa: Why didn't you ask me first?!!
Me: Err....
Papa: Why didn't you ask me first??!! (He's quite agitated by now)
Me: Err..I was scared you wouldn't let me....
Papa: You should have told me first..! Look, you can't undo it already..! It's permanent now!
Me: Aiyo relax la. It's not permanent ok. It's embroidery not tatoo la. It will fade one.

He didn't talk about it afterwards. Then, the next day when I saw him in the morning after waking up, he chuckled and said I looked weird.

I guess he accepted the fact that I'm a big girl already. God, bless his 57 year old heart :)

Next post will be on one more girly stuff (But not about cosmetics). Sorry I'll try to make my blog more appealing to both sexes haha. Hmm...I'm thinking about Porsche 550 Spyder...

WHAT?! Eyebrow embroidery?

2010-01-07T13:55:00.006+08:00

No, this not eyebrow embroidery.

98% of Indian girls have beautiful eyebrows. The other 2% have bushy eyebrows.
Me? I don't have eyebrows LOL

So, out of my mum's persuasion and my attempt of being girlier I've decided to do eyebrow embroidery. I've never dyed/permed my hair, never pierced anywhere besides earlobes, never tatooed, no braces. I don't plan to do any of those things except piercing and dying my hair when I'm old. See? Quite 'traditional' right?

"What about eyebrows?" you might ask.

Well, my left and right eyebrows don't look the same. One has lesser hair than the other and they are pain in the ass for me to groom them. They don't really bother me. In fact, it's fun to joke about them. Nevertheless I know I need to do something with my eyebrows. I think there's an unwritten rule about girls having to be well groomed once they're considered 'matured' (hmm, wonder why I didn't apply that rule earlier)

Anyway here's an account of my 'ordeal'
-Went to that Kedai 'Kuan Yin' (ok la, Kuan Yin Beauty Salon) after running some errands with mum. The shop is opposite Olympia College.

-First thing I noticed: Wah so many aunties with fake eyebrows. Got 2 leng lui receptionists. Got one guy there too, hmm.. he's either a doting bf/husband or gay.

-Waited for half an hour because my mum forgot to make an appointment. Witnessed a few aunties erasing their old tatoos, doing embroidery and touching up their embroidery. Overheard lots of 'woman-talk' like beauty, fashion, kid's education, bla bla bla. Vowed to myself never be like them. I'd talk about airplanes and Dato' Tony Fernandez instead.

-It's my turn now!! The beautician first drew 2 different shapes and let me choose either one. I chose one that was 'sharper' and not so 'round'. After making sure that nothing is lop-sided or weird she shaved my eyebrows according to the one that she drew.

First, she put some stuff to disinfect the area. Before she started;

I asked, "What kind of feeling should I expect? How much does it hurt?"
"Like how you pluck your eyebrows," she answered.
"That's not even painful!"
"Wah, you can tahan ah."
"No, are you lying to make me feel better?" I asked suspiciously.

She just smiled sheepishly.

Than a buzzing sound began. I held my hands tight and closed my eyes.

It didn't really hurt at first. It just felt like tiny little needles poking on the surface of your skin (er..upper epidermis?). Then as she kept on poking me with that electric instrument (I call it Big Daddy) back and forth repeatedly on the same place, it started to hurt a bit. Then it stopped. And she poked me with another smaller non-electric instrument to fill in the spots that hasn't been coloured. Another quick round Big Daddy finshed the job. She repeated the same process on the other eyebrow.

The whole embroidery process took about 15 minutes maybe? It wasn't too bad, definitely hurt lesser than a real Tatoo or my dislocated kneecap. I got a shock when I look at the mirror though. My eyebrows were a bit red and swollen but those black up-side-down Nike sign were unmistakable. The beautician said the swell will go away tomorrow. Oh yeah, that 15 minutes cost me RM300. Touch up is complimentary, mine is 2 weeks from now.

Does it look good? Well, it's very dark and swollen now. My mum said it'll take a week for it to be lighter and look more natural. Recommended? Unless you have shitty eyebrows like me, just use eyebrow pencils. Don't be like all those aunties :D

BTW My 'China-man' father doesn't know about it yet. He hasn't come home. I don't know how he'll take it. Hell, he doesn't even like me putting nail polish. I'll let you guys know. HAHA

Don't Pee in the Pool!

In a survey of 1,000 U.S. adults conducted in April and May, 17 percent admitted relieving themselves in a swimming pool. Even the Olympics' most decorated swimmer, Michael Phelps, confessed to urinating in the water to TV host Jimmy Kimmel. In a 2008 interview, Kimmel asked the 14-gold medal winner, "You pee in the pool, true?"
"Yeah," Phelps replied.
"Which nationality pees in the pool the most?" Kimmel asked.
"Probably Americans," Phelps said.
"Oh, so we're number one in that too," Kimmel quipped.

Sometimes, an indoor swimming pool will emit a strong chemical smell. The swimmers have coughs or red, stinging eyes after emerging from the pool. Usually those symptoms get dismissed as the effects of chlorine, but their causes are something more organic.

When swimmers sweat or urinate in the pool water, the bodily fluids combine with the chlorine. It creates chloramines, which causes the strange odor and the eye and respiratory irritations for swimmers.

No matter how discreet the act may be, "you're contaminating the pool. Let's face it," said Linda Golodner, the vice chairwoman of the Water Quality and Health Council.

The survey released by Golodner's group, which advises the American Chemistry Council, found that 11 percent of the surveyed adults said they have swum with a runny nose, 7 percent with an exposed rash or cut and 1 percent when ill with diarrhea.

The most common recreational water illness is spread through diarrhea. One of the most persistent problems is Cryptosporidium, a parasite that causes diarrhea and can be found in infected stools.

"With Crypto, if you have diarrhea, it's very watery," Hlavsa said. "It's not a formed stool sitting in the pool or floating on top. It could be very watery, and no one [in a pool] would know."

During the past two decades, Crypto has become one of the most common causes of waterborne illness. If someone swallows water that has been contaminated with fecaes, he or she may become sick even if very little water is consumed.

The agency also recommends that people shower before a swim, because most people have traces of feces on their bottoms, which can contaminate recreational water. In the Water Quality survey, 35 percent reported skipping a shower before swimming.

Here are tips to make sure the pool is clean:
• Look at the pool to see whether it's clean and clear, and the drain is visible.
• Listen for pool equipment, because the pool pumps and filters should make noise.
• Feel the tiles and pool sides. They should not be sticky or slippery.
• Beware of a strong chemical odor. A well-chlorinated pool has little odor.

My wife's been dropping me subtle hints this week as to what she wants for Christmas, saying things like " I want something that feels really silky and smooth", "Hope you get it in my size" and "I want to be able to wear it every day".

Boy is she going to love the washing-up gloves I bought.

Merry Christmas everyone! :)

Whats my city?

2009-12-20T13:45:00.000+08:00

Your City is Buenos Aires

You are cultured, sophisticated, and quite old fashioned. You believe traditions are important, but you are still quite vibrant.
People don't know you well at all, and if they do, they totally misunderstand what you are all about.

You are more interesting and more intelligent than anyone gives you credit for. You are a bit of a hidden treasure.
You are creative, ambitious, beautiful, and fun. You may have a rough past, but you are always getting better.

What's" Your City?

New Moon Review

2009-12-14T15:44:00.003+08:00

I've just watched New Moon with Niroshaa. She was my sexy Ah Mat hehe.

I spent RM6 on the ticket (thanks to my student card) on hopes that I'll be wowed by the new director since Chris Weitz (The Golden Compass) took over. One word to describe the movie.

D.I.S.S.A.P.O.I.N.T.I.N.G

Good bits:

1) The vampires are not wearing so much make up anymore. :D

2) Shirtless Jacob 'Biceps' Black and Edward 'Swoon' Cullen for girls below 16

3) Memorable (cheesy) line:
Edward: You give me everything just by breathing
Which is cheesier? "You jump I jump" or this?

4) Great CGI for the werewolf scenes. I also like how the camera captures the scenes in the forest. They're quite artistically shot actually. But then these are the only elements Chris Weitz seems to be paying attention to.

5) Jacob brings a fresh air of humour to the otherwise tense mood.

6) It's nice to see some real vampires who will actually kill humans like the Volturi as opposed to the 'vegetarian' Cullens

BAD bits:

1) The whole paper-cut scene looks unnatural. Jasper doesn't look like he wants Bella's blood badly enough. I was hoping to hear a loud snarl from him.

2) The movie starts in school where Edward walks (slow-mo) towards Bella and then says Happy Birthday to her giving an ample time for the girls to gawk at him. Come on, that's soo cliche. At least put some funny music to make him as if he's making fun of his own prettiness.

3) Bella only has two expressions. A vacant stare that is meant to denote intensity which she does a lot and tiny frown that denotes distress when Edward tells her that he is breaking up with her. Aiyo Kristen, why can't you whine like a kid or be angry instead of just staring at him?

4) Edward just scowls a lot or broods. Both of which are annoying once used repeatedly. He could have more personality than a brooding suicidal vampire who loves a love-struck suicidal teenager.

5) Jacob's transformation was never fully explained and Bella did not seem to be genuinely shocked to see a human tranforming to a wolf. Perhaps she got used to myth creatures already?

6) I hate the way Bella is shown sitting in front of a window looking at the trees as months passed by. She looks more like a grandma who misses her cat. I'd prefer fast forwaded scenes of her daily lives of how it feels incomplete without Edward. Isn't that what Stephenie Meyer is trying to tell in her book?

7) The relationship between Bella and Edward is stiff; they are never happy unlike Jacob and Bella, they look like they're under a spell rather than really being in love. It merely consists of staring, silence, Edward throwing some cheesy line like "you are my everything" or "I don't want to live in a world where you didn't exist" . Right, you don't want to live in a world where a girl who stares at you in silence doesn't exist.

Conclusion

Good movie for 16 year old or under die-hard fans. Bad cinematic experience for the more matured audience. As for me, I'll buy the pirated DVD when the next movie comes out. :D

I have another blog!

2009-12-12T14:09:00.004+08:00

Here's the link:
http://spmliteratureinenglish.blogspot.com/

Trouble likes to find trouble with the troubled

2009-12-08T20:11:00.002+08:00

First of all, let me say one thing.

HOORAYY spm's over!! (for most of science students)

Unfortunately just when I thought the worst event (where studies concern) is over, ANOTHER thing cropped up.

I LOST MY CERTS!!

The story is like this:

After returning the textbooks, taking my certs, hugs, saying goodbyes and everything I went to Parade to ask for part-time job at starbucks. Then I walked back to school to put down my bag to wait for my mum. I put down my certs on the bench and my bag on top because I didn't want the certs to be damaged. Then I went inside to look for Pn Sharifah. Then when I return to the frontgate I noticed that my bag is still there but my frigging certs are L.O.S.T.

The frantic search began, every inch of the pondok is searched, but my baby is LOSTTT!! I asked everyone there if they've taken mine and everything but to no avail.

What can I say? Trouble likes to find trouble with the troubled

My theory is this:
1) Someone must have mistaken my certs for theirs and took it home
2) It was a prank because if she mistook the cert, there would be one extra cert left on the bench, right?
Well, there's none. :(

So, please check my facebook if you wanna help.

p/s Next post will a be happier one :)

An Analogy

2009-08-09T18:51:00.005+08:00

Once upon a time, there was a jungle called Nawachichi. In this little jungle, there are many different species of orang utans. The main ones are the Malis, the Chikus and the Inderapuris. However since the majority of orang utans living in this jungle are the Malis, they rule the jungle.

Now, there is something special about the Malis. It is a tradition for them not to drink Air Ngeeruu. Air Ngeeruu is a type of drink that makes you feel happy. But if you drink too much of it you'll feel dizzy and end up doing some stupid stuff. The Chikus and the Inderapuris once drank too much of it and they end up shaving each other's fur until they are naked while singing 'The Banana Song'.

The Malis of course were unhappy about it. So they banned the sale of Air Ngeeruu. The Chikus and the Inderapuris got angry and spread the news to the neighbouring jungle via smoke signal. The type of firewood used was Indernett. Soon the Chikus, Inderapuris and everyone else protested by eating up all the bananas in the jungle and throwing banana skins everywhere.

The Malis couldn't bear it anymore and even banned the usage of Indernett. Their reason is to make sure that no one will throw rotten bananas at them. All of the protestors were caught and sent to a cave called I.T.A. (Internal Torture Act) where no one is going to save the orang utans ever again..

The question now is, is it wrong to spread news? Are the Malis just cowards for being afraid to let other people know their dirty acts? Is knowledge being denied ?

http://malaysia.news.yahoo.com/rtrs/20090806/tbs-malaysia-internet-0fe1d6e.html
*edit* As of 12/8 the Malis decided to free the innocents. Hooray for knowledge and truth!

Dear Muslims, wanna get spanked? Here's how

2009-07-22T16:09:00.006+08:00

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia – An Islamic court in Malaysia has sentenced a Muslim woman to be flogged with a rattan cane for having a beer in a nightclub, a court official said Tuesday.

It is rare for a woman in Malaysia to be sentenced to caning _ a punishment usually reserved for men in various crimes ranging from rape to bribery. It is generally done by specially trained officials at prisons.

Part-time model Kartika Sari Dewi Shukarno was sentenced Monday to six lashes and a fine of 5,000 ringgit ($1,400) for consuming alcohol, said a Shariah High Court official who declined to be identified because he was not authorized to make public statements.

Shukarno, 32, pleaded guilty in the court in eastern Pahang state to a charge of drinking beer when Islamic authorities raided a hotel nightclub in August 2008.

Consuming alcohol is a religious offense in Malaysia only for Muslims, who make up nearly two-thirds of the population. Offenders are prosecuted in Shariah courts, which handle cases mainly related to family and moral issues for Muslims.

Shukarno plans to appeal the sentence, the New Straits Times daily reported.
The punishment "is aimed at making the accused repent and serves as a lesson to Muslims," the newspaper quoted Judge Abdul Rahman Yunus as saying.

A full uninhibited SPIDERMAN-STYLE make out session

I personally feel that PDA a.k.a Public Display of Affection should be guarded. The whole world don't need to know how you and your beloved are into each other. Imagine those sucking slobbering sucking sound.

ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

I remember when I was in KL Central waiting for bus to go to 1 Utama, I saw this orang putih couple walking with hands all over each other and leaning in for a kiss every 30 seconds. I mean wazzup with that yo?? Get a room! I couldn't bear watching them and turned behind. My friends were giggling at them (and me)

Being a true blue Asian I tryy to be as decent as possible. A peck is alright in public but not a sucking-at-your-face session.

..Or maybe it's just me. But still..... =.="

Fame Kills

2009-06-20T12:42:00.004+08:00

NEW YORK - "Twilight" star Robert Pattinson was hit by a taxi in New York as he tried to run away from a crowd of hysterical teenage fans, but he was not seriously injured, U.S. media reported.

Pattinson, 23, who stars in the hit teenage vampire movies, was clipped on the hip in front a bookstore in Manhattan where he was shooting scenes on Thursday for his new film, "Remember Me," a drama about two young lovers dealing with family tragedies.

Flanked by five security guards, the British actor tried to run past a group of teenage girls who had gathered outside the bookstore and cross the street to his trailer when the accident happened.
He was not seriously injured, but his bodyguards reportedly were furious, according to RadarOnline.com which claimed to have witnessed the accident. One of the bodyguards yelled at the girls: "You see what you did, you almost killed him!"
Pattinson's manager did not comment on the accident.
Pattinson has become one of the hottest properties in Hollywood since appearing in "Twilight" as brooding vampire Edward Cullen.
This week he was voted the world's most handsome man by online readers of Vanity Fair.

I'm just back from my dinner. Today my mum felt lazy and we decided to eat in a kopitiam near my house..

Now, the dinner wasn't important.
The place wasn't important.
What was important is that guy who was sitting with another girl.

Allow me to describe him.

- The first thing I noticed about him was that he was wearing a pair of really nice white leather loafers. And he paired it with light grey socks.
(In case you don't know, I judge people from the shoes they wear. And I have a fascination towards leather shoes for some reason)
- He wore a white long-sleeved workshirt with thin black vertical stripes tucked in a pair of black slacks with very thin white stripes. A white belt finished off the look.
- His hair was just nicely gelled with no annoying hair dye, he had a bit of stubble, and his face...looks like the chinese version of Justin Timberlake. He looks like he's in mid-20s

And I thought to myself what on Earth was he doing here. A guy this good-looking shouldn't hang around here.

The girl that was with him has short blondish-light brownish bob hair (yuck), wore a red t-shirt that says PATRICK, a pair of brown baggy pants, a pair of nice white Nike running shoes, and a really ugly black bag. She was no match to the Justin Timberlake-esque guy.

Was she her girlfriend? Sister? Friend??

What's wrong with me???

Of course throughout my dinner I didn't ogle at them (at least not so obvious). It just made me realize the sorry state of my love life.

I'm glad that my hormones are still normal and still behave like a teenager. Sometimes I wonder if the old boring stuff that I read has add 20 years to my age.
I'm not so glad that I still don't have the guts to be a bit more daring.

Damn

Me? Blue?

2009-05-28T22:11:00.004+08:00

Hi friends! (if any of you are reading this).

I took a quiz and what is says is dead true.

Have a look!

You Are Blue

You are a philosophical and often inspired person. You are the master of ideas.

You are open to many points of view. You believe that it's important to communicate and not judge.

You have a worldly perspective, and you're always looking to broaden it.

You are a true people person, but you also value your solitude and personal space.

What Primary Color Are You?

....I'm excited to receive my copy of De Parchment tomorrow. And jam with Diyana! :)

Public Universities

2009-04-17T22:04:00.010+08:00

I just came across this news.

"A UNIVERSITI Sains Islam Malaysia lecturer who passed only four out of 157 of her law students claims she was forced to resign so that the university could protect its reputation, Kosmo! reported.
Nor (not her real name) said the reason she left was because she could not stand the pressure from the university management on her to give “sympathy marks.”
“How am I to give extra marks if the marks they got is what they should be getting?” she said, adding that her downfall started when she received a show-cause letter on why so many students had failed.
She was then criticised by her superiors, who also wanted her to add marks based on attendance so as to reduce the number of failures.
“I stood my ground. How could I give them marks for that when it is their responsibility to show up for classes?” she added.
The university declined to comment. "

It's already schocking to see only 4 out of 157 students pass the exam. That means only 2.55% students who passed. What? Are these people stupid? Is the lecturer stupid? Is the exam too hard? We don't know. But what we know is USIM tried to cover up this matter for the sake of 'reputation'. So the poor ethical and honest lecturer was forced to resign for not giving 'sympathy marks'.

The last time I begged for sympathy marks was when I was in Standard 1. I got B for my English test so I begged her to give me some more marks to get an A. If not, my father would scold me. Well, she was really generous. So I escaped from my father. :]

The thing I'm trying to tell is you don't do that anymore in university! Hello~if you can't score than blame yourself la. But of course, the students didn't ask for the marks (maybe they secretly do), it's the administration people. They might look like some egoistic people who are willing to do whatever it it takes to uphold the 'name' but on the other hand if everyone finds about the low passing rate, then people will lose their faith in public unversities (which we already do) and less scholars will enter public U which is bad for boosting our public U's ranks.

There must be a better solution right? Covering up is definitely not one. Maybe a re-take for those who failed?

Hmm..does this happen in other universities as well? UM? UKM? USM?

So who's fault is it?

Students?

Lecturers?

The Ministry of Higher Education?

ASEAN Quiz 2009

I'm in school now.

Blogging.

Yeah.

I'm one of those 10 people who got selected for this quiz. It is state-level. If I win this round, then I'll move on to another round. Honestly, I didn't study much for it. I just skipped yesterday's BM tuition to study. Unfortunately, I got bored with the official website-lots of words and so little colour. So I went to YouTube! BTW you guys should really check out 'charlieissocoollike'. I adore him. After that I became sleepy and decided to have a siesta instead. I only started to really read up the facts at around 4pm. Then I have to go Chemistry tuition at 8pm. For all the effort spent I should do well for the quiz right?

First of all, I only started at 12pm due to the not-to-be-missed lessons. Then when I finally found a computer with proper internet connection with Mei Yen, Sze Lyn (oops it's Sze Yuen, I'm sorry my friend, if you're reading this, and thanks Mei Yen) and some form 4 girls, guess what?

THE DAMN SERVER WON'T LET ME LOG IN!!!

I can only go to the webpage after wasting 30 minutes, doing nothing. Another 15 minutes trying to log in.

Nothing happens,

Why do we still have this kind of problem??

I can't believe my dead blog actualy still exists!!

I remembered I did this like years ago and then I realized that I'm not disciplined to actualy blog every week.

Now that most of friends are blogging, I'm finally motivated to actualy start writing (or 'typing')

I don't know if anyone's reading this. We'll give it a 30 days trial and see how it goes.

I'll post properly tomorrow. It's kinda too early to blog about today, right? teehee
