A friend is..........

Accepts you as you are 　接受原本的你

Believes in “you” 　相信你这个人

Calls you just to say “Hi” 打电话给你就是想说声”嗨”

Doesn’t give up on you 　从不放弃对你的信心

Envisions the whole of you 　预期你总是尽全力

Forgives your mistakes 　原谅你的过错

Gives unconditionally 　无条件地过错

Helps you 　帮助你

Invites you over 　邀请你

Jest “be” with you 　静静地在你的身旁

Keeps you close at heart 　靠近你的心

Loves you for who you are 　因你原来的样子而爱你

Makes a difference in your life 　使你的生活与以往不同

Never judges 　不间断

Offers support 　支持你

Picks you up 　扶你一把

Quiets your fears 　止息你的惧怕

Raises your spirits 　鼓舞你的心灵

Says nice things about you 　跟别人述说你好的那一面

Tells you the truth when you need to hear it 当需要时会告诉你实情

Understands you 　懂你

Values you 　看重你

Walks beside you 　与你同行

X-plain things you don’t understand 　解你的疑惑

Yells when you won’t listen aXnd 　在你听不下时会大吼一下

Zaps you back to reality 　把你拉回现实

(maybe this is my last post ever)

Happy first anniversary :)

2008-05-15T19:24:00.004+08:00

Time really passed in a wink of an eye…I’d been studying in form six exactly a year….Times of the year, I’d changed ! Now, I’m trying to feedback what I’ve done in the year:

1)Many first- time..(studied in boy school, went for overnight camp, prepared for some functions, become a.monitor and many many more)

2)It’s quite happy to meet new friends..(from stranger to friend to good friend)

3)Hatred - SOME teachers (especially math teacher,pinky), doing math (previously math was my fav subject, but now I’m struggling in “math world”)

4)Had been struggling in some problems..(felt so relieved…I had overcome them)

5)Influenced by my friend to become healthier…(learnt many useful tips in exercising, dietary, keeping a healthy lifestyle)

6)Stayed up late at night…(I had no choice)

7)Tried something new that I’d never done before..(posting my masterpiece to wb, driving, blogging and many)

8)Struggling in my studies..(I’m still struggling now..)

9)Met friends who had lost contact for many years….

10)Overcome nervousness , anxiety and fear

11)Much more mature….

12)learnt to be aware to surroundings…

13)learnt to be strong to continue my life though it’s hard

erm..as i know that many people will feel that going to form six is a waste of time and it's hard. I do agree that stpm is damn hard but no exam in this world is easy...so as long as we work hard and try our best, we will achieve our goals..HAPPY 1ST ANNIVERSARY in form six!!!

Luv It !

One of my fav song..check it out!(By Jordin Sparks ft Chris Brown)

Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air

If I should die before I wake
It's 'cause you took my breath away
Losing you is like living in a world with no air
Oh

I'm here alone, didn't wanna leave
My heart won't move, it's incomplete
If there was a way that I can make you understand

But how do you expect me
to live alone with just me
'Cause my world revolves around you
It's so hard for me to breathe

[Chorus:]
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air
Can't live, can't breathe with no air
It's how I feel whenever you ain't there
It's no air, no air
Got me out here in the water so deep
Tell me how you gonna be without me
If you ain't here, I just can't breathe
It's no air, no air

No air, air
No air, air
No air, air
No air, air

I walked, I ran, I jumped, I flew
Right off the ground to float to you
There's no gravity to hold me down for real

But somehow I'm still alive inside
You took my breath, but I survived
I don't know how, but I don't even care

So how do you expect me
to live alone with just me
'Cause my world revolves around you
It's so hard for me to breathe

[Chorus]

No air, air
No air, air
No air, air
No air, air
No more
It's no air, no air

[Chorus x2]

No air, air
No air, air
No air, air
No air, air

Cool song!!

Do you know that the world's most expensive coffee is from beans cycled through an indonesian monkey's digestive system?? Unbelievable but it's 100% true!

Kopi Luwak, the most expensive coffee is a rare and gourmet coffee from Indonesia that is made from beans passed through the digestive system of monkeys. Kopi Luwak does exist, is very expensive, and is made from coffee beans passed through the digestive system of an Indonesian animal, but it's more like a cat than a monkey. According to a feature article by the Manila Coffee House, which sells the stuff, the people who harvest the digested beans don't really have to pick through cat litter to get it. The animal processes the beans and excretes them whole, unscratched, and without dung.

According to the Manila Coffee House, the palm civet just happens to like to ingest the ripest and reddest coffee beans, which also happen to be the ones best for brewing. The cat eats the outer covering of the beans in the same way that is accomplished by de-pulping machines. Something happens to the beans in the journey through the cat's intestines that gives it a flavor that is celebrated by coffee drinkers.

Show our care to disabled people

2008-03-22T20:22:00.003+08:00

My whole body was just exhausted. It was a tiring day after having such a long hour outside from 10 am to 4 pm . Guess what? I visited to the disabled people caring centre this morning with Buddha club’s members and VAD ‘s members (haha..it was my 1st time doing charity work in the home care centre like cleaning the surroundings). Normally, my charity work involved donating money or goods but not volunteering my time in the disabled people caring centre. I’m not a extremely caring person!!

I know Malaysians are generally caring people. Most of them possess a giving spirit and are willing to help the less fortune. To them, a good way to help is by donating money and goods.(Just like me..) However, there are less and less people who do not have any sincerity in looking after the interests and welfare of disabled. Some of them even afraid to go in to pay a visit to the disabled. But…you will see a difference and learn something from your “ passionate involvement with charity work “…(trust me!)

The disabled consisted of people from all ages ( young kids to adults) and races ( Chinese and Indian). It was quite fun when playing with them especially those young Indian kids. Some of them were damn funny and too friendly. We had chatted with them such a long time. I should go to learn Hakka as some of them spoke Hakka and I had serious communication problem with them. ( Luckily my friends saved me as they knew how to speak Hakka). P.s: [ Don’t think that disabled people are not smart enough, they know what is “pak tor” and “lou gong”.(lol).] I was so shocked that one of them asked me “ where is your pak tor? “. My first reaction was “HUH”, as I never expected this. She was pointing to a boy who walked pass us and I quickly responded “no, I don’t pak tor”. (funny)

Back to my main point. Maybe some of us still think that disabled people should stay away from us and that a disabled person will never become a part of our lives. We have to shed some light on the disabled.There are many different ways to become disabled such as birth complications, accidents and heridetary diseases. However, disabled people are not different from other people except their brain damage. They still have their own interest, playing, chatting and even teasing with others.(Just like us). Sometimes the disabled will “sayang” each other after fighting while the normal people will not forgive each other and cannot sweep away their hatred. Sometimes it is easy to mix around with the disabled but it is hard to make friend with the normal people. We should learn from them, right?

We should take care of ourselves, family members, friends, beloved, but not to forget those unfortunate disabled people. They need our love and care!!

Veteran HK actress Lydia Sum dies

2008-02-19T20:53:00.002+08:00

Lydia Sum (沈殿霞), one of Hong Kong showbiz's most colourful and popular personalities, died today at 8.38 AM,( Hong Kong time ). She was 60 years old.

The veteran entertainer passed away in Queen Mary hospital after a protracted fight with liver cancer. She had been undergoing medical treatment since being diagnosed with the disease more than a year ago. She was admitted to intensive care a few weeks ago after her condition worsened.

Shum was born in July, 1947 into a well-off large family in Shanghai and ranked the fifth among the family's eight children. She appeared in more than 100 movies in Hong Kong and hosted more than 5,000 episodes of variety shows.

She also stared in the Singaporean English-language sit-com "Living with Lydia," which was broadcast in many Asian countries. ''Living with Lydia'' was my fav tv-shows ( could not miss every single episode) as it made me laugh all the time:)

Hong Kong grew up with her laughter. She brought us a lot of joy. She represented a kind of spirit that was respected by many Hong Kong people.

~Rest In Peace ~

freakin' funny

~Dreams~

Shh!! Close your eyes and make a wish... A dream that you've always wanted to come true.........

We must dare to dream, dare to fly, dare to be the ever chosen one to touch the sky....

My First Time

2008-01-17T23:27:00.000+08:00

Day: Thursday (17-1-08)
Time: 7.30 am in the morning
Vanue: Biology Lab in Sam Tet
Victim: Mr. Rat

Since I was born, I've never seen a real organ before especially in a short distance, I've never seen and touched a real white rat before (because don't have the chance) and I've never paid RM25 just to buy a rat and kill it. But, life is entirely unpredictable. On 17th of Jan at 7.am in the bio lab, I've finally tried my first time....

It was biology rat dissection and we had to do it for almost 3 hours or more than that. Every biology student in upper six had to do rat dissaction. There were many dead rats for us to choose from and all of us were quite choosy ( we wish to have the most beautiful rat ever..not so fat and not so small ).

It was a great experience for me. I could observe the digestion system of a rat clearly, the organs of the rat (examples: ileum, colon, kidney, liver, heart and many more). I was quite lucky as my rat was in medium size but a bit older.

It can be very confusing to students to be taught on the one hand to care for animals and revere life when on the other hand they see destruction of life in their biology classes. Some people will be wondering why we should do dissection and kill innocent animals. Animals are not tools or objects that exist only for human use. They have feelings, and can get a lot of pleasure from their lives. Yeah, I get the point. I can feel the feeling of sadness too!

BUT, we had to do it. We had asked buddhist monk (meaning "sifu") about the dissection. We were afraid that we would break the buddhism rules. According to what she said to us, biology is the science of life.Through dissection helps humans learn alot about other life forms,seeing the internal parts of once-living organisms, and knowing more about human and animal anatomy. All these will help in their future when they do doctor-ing.

I know there are more than six million frogs or rats which have been killed in a year just to let our humans to learn. There's no need to be killing six million frogs or rats a year.(it's a shocking number!) We need to do dissection, but numbers of killing animals should be reduced. I hope that there are better ways to learn about organs....

Murata Boy has come to Sam Tet!

2008-01-14T15:51:00.000+08:00

Today is a special day for me, as well as other sam tet's students. Guess what, our school is very lucky to be selected to have a "Murata Boy Show Demonstration" and this is a very golden opportunity for us to meet "him". Well, this is my first time to have a chance to see a real robot in a short distance. He's very cool and smart...haha! When someone says " Are you tired? ", he will shake his head.

Murata Boy is the cycling robot from Murata. Japanese company Murata Manufacturing created a bicycling robot to show off some of their various sensors. The robot tentatively named Murata Boy (although some articles are calling it Murata Seisaku-kun) is equipped with four types of sensors: two gyro sensors used to detect angular velocity and inclination; an ultrasonic sensor to detect obstacles; and a shock sensor to detect rough surfaces. The robot is connected to a PC via wireless LAN connection for forward, stop, and backward type commands and he can follow pre-programmed paths. It's about 2 foot tall and can reach speeds of 30 inches per second and can even balance while at a complete stop.

Friendship ( by ESPRIT Diary 2008)

2008-01-10T11:52:00.000+08:00

You can't buy friends.

You Don't find them on the shelf

and they are not for sale.

They don't expire after a week.

A friend is someone very special.

Someone you would give everything up for-

and they will do the same for you.

Friends are great, you can talk all night,

take road trips together, and love their dog

as if it was your own.

Friends are friends.

Forever.

Soldier’s ‘blog’ from WW1 trenches is Internet Hit

2008-01-05T21:22:00.000+08:00

(by Will Pavia)~

It is a conflict that is fading from living memory, but a “blog” from the trenches of the First World War has become a surprise hit on the internet.

In the past year, the writings of Private Harry Lamin from the Yorkshire and Lancashire Regiment have come to compete with the diaries of call girls, policemen and politicos. The travails of this soldier, set down on the front line in France and Italy in letters to his family, are being posted online 90 years to the day after they were written.

Like the family who anxiously awaited his letters in 1918, thousands of readers keenly await his next post. In the comments section, readers worry over whether he will make it home alive, as he passes through the battles of Messines Ridge and Passchendaele.

His fate has been kept a secret by Bill Lamin, his 59-year-old grandson, who runs the blog and adds photographs and maps he has found while researching the path that his grandfather took through the war. The idea for the blog came to Private Lamin’s grandson, a maths and IT teacher, in 2006.

Harry Lamin, who was born in 1887, worked in Nottingham’s lace industry before being conscripted in 1917 at the age of 29. The first post is in February of that year, from an army training camp in Staffordshire. On May 13, he arrived in France.

In letters to his older brother Jack, a clergyman in Leeds, he writes of being “buried and knocked about” on Messines Ridge and of “rough, rough times” on the front line.

To his sister Kate, a midwife, he is more elliptical. “We had an exciting time up the line,” he wrote to her from the Menin Road in November. “But we beat them back. They lost a good many men.”

The latest word from Private Lamin is on the day before New Year’s Eve, from Italy. He is waiting for his Christmas parcels and news of his wife, Ethel, and Willie, their baby son. To read it, visit www.wwar1.blogspot.com.

Benazir Bhutto shot to death in Pakistan

2007-12-28T22:50:00.000+08:00

RAWALPINDI, Pakistan, Dec. 27 (UPI) -- Former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto, who ended a long self-imposed exile in October, died Thursday of gunshot wounds following a political rally.

A suicide bomber then blew himself up, killing 30 more people and injuring dozens, various media reported.

Bhutto, 54, was struck in the neck and elsewhere as she stood in her limousine, waving goodbye to supporters following a rally in Rawalpindi. She had just called for an end to Islamic violence.

"The man first fired at her vehicle. She ducked and then he blew himself up," police officer Mohammad Shahid told the Hindustan Times. The Pak Tribune reported Bhutto was further injured in the suicide blast.

Rawalpindi, which has suffered other bomb attacks recently, was Pakistan's capital before nearby Islamabad took its place.

Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf went on television to appeal for calm "so that the evil designs of terrorists can be defeated" and declared three days of mourning.

Pakistan's Dawn newspaper said the bombing was carried out by a suicide driver in a car.

The Bhutto attack was the second of the day against opposition politicians. Gunfire erupted at a rally at Islamabad airport for former Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, killing four people.

Life Is Hard, Do Your Best Anyway

2007-12-28T21:07:00.000+08:00

Ever have days when life just seems too hard?

You’re not alone. Life is hard for you, me, and everyone. We’re all in this together. Everyone has challenges. We’re supposed to, they help us grow. Everyone makes mistakes – that’s how we learn.

Don’t give up now! Your life is meaningful, even (sometimes especially) in the hard times. Rest assured that you’re meant to be here.

God is with us, too; always available and ready to love us back to life. Ready to help and show us the way – just for the asking.

I know life’s demands can be overwhelming. Just do your best, as much as you can.

And be sure to think of your health first. Eat a balanced, healthy diet in moderation and be enjoyably active everyday.Take time for meditation, prayer, family, and friendships. Take time to eat really healthy, fresh, good food. Take time to move and re-create on a daily basis.

Tang Yuan

2007-12-22T18:00:00.000+08:00

Tang Yuan, ( 汤圆 in mandarin ), also called glutinous rice balls or also commonly known as ‘kuih ee’, is one of the Chinese delicacy, which is made by mixing glutinous rice flour with a small amount of water and form into round balls and is then cooked in boiling water and normally served in syrup water. It is very common among the Chinese community in Malaysia during festival season, especially on the Dong Zhi a.k.a Winter Solstice Festival. This festival normally falls towards the end of the year (between Dec 21 - 23), and this year, the Winter Solstice Festival falls on 22 Dec 2007.

Though not a public holiday in Malaysia, unlike Chinese New Year, Dong Zhi nevertheless is a significant festival among the Chinese community. It is regarded as the second most important festival in Chinese calendar as it is a thanksgiving time for the entire family to get together to celebrate the past good year. In fact, most Chinese shops would close on the day to celebrate this festive.

There’s a story behind the tradition of eating Tang Yuan among the Chinese. According to history, legend claims that in Ancient China, a poor family caught a fish to celebrate Dong Zhi but in her haste to eat it, a fish bone was stuck at the mother’s throat causing her discomfort. A beggar approached them for food and the daughter gave the fish as that was the only food they had. Seeing the mother’s discomfort, the beggar gave her lumps of dough which she swallowed and got rid of the fish bone. After hearing this, the villagers believe that eating Tang Yuan will help ward off bad luck and that tradition has persisted till modern day.

There are several methods of preparing Tang Yuan. Tang Yuan can be unfilled or filled; fillings could include red bean paste, chopped peanuts and sugar, sesame paste, rock sugar, etc. Normally people will serve their Tang Yuan with hot ginger syrup, pandan-flavoured syrup or soya bean milk. Those with more time will make the tang yuan themselves, but now, the glutinous rice balls are also sold in supermarkets .

Although through the years of modernization and westernization, where its influences have gradually eroded the significance of preparing Tang Yuan on Dong Zhi festival, there is no doubt that most Chinese people still holds on to this tradition of eating Tang Yuan during Dong Zhi festival. To them, Tang Yuan is a symbolic of family reunion, the roundness of the Tang Yuan signifying a complete circle of harmony, unity and prosperity within the family. Nonetheless, it is indeed the thoughts of being together with the family members in celebration of festival season that really matters.

Thanks for the Chien's homemade spaghetti..we luv it so much!
Delicious recipes of L6B3: chien's spagetti + wai ting's cake
These cakes were bursting with soft and sweet blueberries that were sandwiched between the layers of cakes..

class photo of lower six b3..

Friends in L6B3 are forever young.

Unchanged, they're where you always will belong

The crowd is never gone, the pleasure stays,

The music of the moment always plays,

The time remains a field of wistful grace

To which you may return from anyplace.

Of course, you may still know them later on

When you are someone else and years have run;

And you may love them dearly, and they you,

But time must make their friendship something new.

Meanwhile, flourishing within your heart

There is a whole, of which you were a part:

A group of friends, one in love and pain,

In whom your longing comes alive again.

Lessons In Life

Welcome to the journey of Petroscience

2007-11-12T13:37:00.000+08:00

Have you ever seen a "dinosour rapper" before? If not, you will have the chance to see "him" in Petroscience.

What a impressive and dramatic man-made volcano and landscape that I've ever seen before

we can also explore science and technology through exciting and interactive experiments.

This is my friend, Guan Hui but we usually call him "lau shu" meaning rat until we all have forgotten his real name..(haha..sorry for that).. He has many nicknames such as rat, davey and xiao di di (as he's younger than us). So, say cheese to the camera...

One Day Trip To KL

2007-11-11T00:09:00.000+08:00

It is a truely memorable trip for me in kl although it is just a one day trip. We have the opportunity to go to Suria KLCC and Time Square Shopping Centre in kl. As we used to go to other shopping centres rather than KLCC, all of us are so excited to go to the world's tallest buildings, the Petronas Twin Towers which are a source of great pride for Malaysians. This mall is a favourite spot for locals and tourists as the place is classy and the shops sell a huge variety of goods. There is also a beautiful landscaped park that is a favorite hangout spot just about all the time.

To me, I'm feel very happy to have the golden opportunity to go to interactive petroscience discovery centre within the adjoining Suria KLCC Mall. There are a tons of experiments and mostly hands on experiments that let you play and learn about science world.

Unfortunately the weather is bad and it's raining cats and dogs. As a result, all of us get wet in the heavy rain. What an unlucky day! We have missed the chance of going to the "Eye On Malaysia", the tallest portable observation wheel in South-East Asia. This giant ferris wheel allows visitors to experience a 360-degree panoramic view of Kuala Lumpur during a 12-minute ride that goes 60 metres high. However, we still have a chance to go to the Time Square where we've been waiting for such a long time.

Berjaya Times Square is set to become an international landmark offering unparallel shopping, luxury accommodation, business, fine food and beverage and abundant entertainment to the estimated 1.5 million visitors each month. Cosmo’s World Theme Park, the Largest Indoor Theme Park in Malaysia is also one of the main attractions in Berjaya Times Square. My friends are so excited to go for the ride in different " Galaxy Station" such as Dizzy Izzy, Spinning Orbit and 7 storey high roller coaster.

Happy Halloween

2007-10-31T14:30:00.000+08:00

Halloween, or Hallowe'en, is a holiday celebrated on the night of October 31. Traditional activities include trick-or-treating, halloween festivals, bonefires, costume parties, visiting "haunted house" and viewing horror films. Halloween originated from the Pagam festival Samhain, celebrated among the Celts of Ireland and Great Britian. Irish and Scottish immigrants carried versions of the tradition to North America in the nineteenth century. Other western countries embraced the holiday in the late twentieth century. Halloween is now celebrated in several parts of the western world, most commonly in Ireland, the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico, and the United Kingdom and occasionally in parts of Australia and New Zealand.

5 ways to be happy

2007-10-30T23:42:00.000+08:00

Work Out
Exercise distracts you from sad thoughts, work tension from your muscles, and triggers the release of endorphins and serotonin (natural mood lifters). Just a 10 min walk can make you feel more hopeful and think more clearly.

Listen To Music
Any kind of music stimulates the amygdala, the part of your brain that creates happy feelings. Your heart rate can also increase with the beat of a fast song, which can energise you. So pop in an upbeat CD, even if you don't feel like listening to it at first.

Eat Healthy Carbs
Carbohydrates provide energy for your body and brain. if you don't eat enough of them ( like if you're on a low -carb diet), you can feel tired and crabby. Try to get at least one healthy high carb food ( something rich in fiber, like whole wheat bread) at every meal.

Open the Blinds

Getting more sunshine ( directly or through a window) lifts your mood, though experts aren't sure exactly why it works. So go outside as often as you can. Or try sleeping with the shades up so you awaken to a brighter bedroom.

Make Yourself Laugh
Research shows that laughing, even if it's forced initially, helps you feel better because the act of laughing triggers your brain to produce endorphins. So try watching a sitcom and chuckling along with the laugh track next time you're down.

*'That So Raven', ' Hannah Montana' and 'Suit Life of Zack & Cody' really help me when I'm down. *

Try one of these suggestions the next time you're down. They really work!!

Appreciate what we have in our life

2007-10-07T20:50:00.000+08:00

No matter our exact situation in life, we all face disappointment and pit falls at some point. During these periods of adversity, we may get so caught up in these negative situations that we find our selves not appreciating the more positive aspects of our lives. Yet, if you don't make a conscious effort to appreciate what you have, it's often all too easy to focus on what you don't have and that can turn into a sense of self-complacency rather than a feeling of self-empowerment.

On the other hand, if you learn to appreciate what you have in your life, it can empower you because you can think about what you've done to get at least that far. For example, if you realize that you have a roof over your head despite the fact that you're not yet living in the home of your dreams, you can see not only how far you have to go to get your dream, but appreciate how far you've come. You can appreciate what you have earned for yourself already, and believe in your own ability to be able to achieve the next level, and the next until you get what you really want. You learn to appreciate what you have by recognizing the difference between situations and actions you can control and those you can't.

To me, I'll try to appreciate what I have now..like appreciate the loves and cares from my family, friendship and natural beauty from God. I 'll try to appreciate the moment I spend with my friends in these two years, like my classmates in form six and other friends.

Showing gratitude is another way to appreciate what you have. If you’re truly thankful for what you have, you also appreciate what you have. No matter how difficult a day is, for example, we can be grateful that we are here to have that day. If everything seems to be going wrong, but we are basically healthy, we can be grateful for our health.

Even when we’re sick, we can appreciate the small things. Many people don’t take time to appreciate the beauty of nature, for example. Taking time to walk in your neighborhood can not only help you appreciate things about it that you may have never noticed before, but the walk can also give you some needed exercise and fresh air as well.

You can make a point to appreciate what you have by thinking about the small everyday things that you like. It could be as simple as the smell of your laundry detergent or the way the new throw pillow you made or bought for your couch looks. You may be far from having everything you want in your life, but by appreciating what you have now, you can be happier while you're working on achieving the rest of your dreams.

Are we ready for a flat world?

2007-09-30T20:47:00.000+08:00

(by Anna Taing)

Even once in a while, along comes a book that is a must read for government leaders and individuals who want to succeed in life. The World is Flat: A Bried History of the 21st Century by Thomas Friedman, I believe, is one of these books.

He is no Milton Friedman, who was a great monetary economist. Nonetheless, what Thomas Friedman expounds in his book is very relevant today, in the light of the many changes that are taking place that will reshape the world and how business is being done.

The World is Flat paints a very real picture of what is happening now and that if we don't embrace change, we risk being trampled by all those who do. Indeed, the book and what is contains is especially relevant to Malaysians, when our economic development is at an inflection point.

So, what does Friedman mean when he says the world is flat? He is talking about the emergence of a level playing field, flattened by the lowering of trade and political barriers and "people-to people and application-to-application conectivity". Techonlogy and advances of the digital revolution have enabled business to be conducted instantaneously with billions of people across the globe.

The global playing field has been levelled by 10 major events, starting with the demolition of the Berlin Wall in 1989. All 10 events converged around the year 2000 to produce a global web-enabled playing field that allows for multiple forms of colaboration regardless of geography, distance and in the not-too-distant future, even language.

The "flatteners" include ten advent of Nestcape, outsourcing, offshoring, informing (access to information and data mining), in-sourcing and global supply chains. Add to these the millions of new players, including the Chinese, Indians and Koreans, who are marching onto the global stage to play an increasingly important role.

And because the world is getting flatter by the day, the challenge for every country, every company and every individual is to stay ahead of the pack.

Friedman is worried for the US,in the particular, with what the world's largest economy is not doing to embrace the challenges that globalisation brings. America is going through a quiet crisis, where its science and technology base is being eaten away with each passing day. If not addressed, it will become a big crisis 10 to 15 years down the road.

He sees three major gaps in the US, which, if not closed, will have dire implicatios for its future generations. The gaps are:

Ambition gap-Americas today lack ambition and generally lazy.
Number gap- there are not enough engineers and scientists in US today, and
Education gap- there is an erosion in the quality ogf US education.

Do all these issues raised by Friedman ring a bell for us here in Malaysia?Yes, We, too, should be worried because we live in a flat world, competing in the global marketplace has become a different ballgame alltogether. Education, especially in science and technology , has become the key to bring about the change.

The levelling of the global playing field is continuing even as we speak, and we ignore it at our own peril.

As Friedman points out, now is not the time to point fingers or be distracted by the other issues. Now is the time to focus on what needs to be done to raise the bar, and doing those things quickly as possible. Now is not the time to talk about the handouts or call for protection, because in a " flat world", we can no longer get by with doing things the way we have always done. We no longer live in silos-what other countries do will have great impact on us.

" When it comes to responding to the challenges of the flat world, there is no help line we can call. We have to dig into ourselves....in a flat world, every individual will have to run a little faster if he or she wants to advance his or her standard of living" Friedman says.

At the government level, to quote Friedman, the response to globalisation requires a leader who can" summon the nation to work harder, get smarter, attract more young men and women to science and technology..."

A key message in the book must surely be this:"It is time to wake up, and prepare ourselves for the flat world, because the others already are, and there is no time to wast."

Malaysia, too, is going through its own "quiet crisis", where our competitive edge is being eroded by the emergence of new growth economies.

Once, Malaysia's main competitors, whether for foreign direct investmentts or in the export markets, were Singapore and South Korea. Today,we have fallen behi9nd. Our competitors are now Indonesia, Thailand even Vietnam. So, let us read Friedman's book and be very,very scared.

Trip To Cameron Highlands

2007-09-27T21:15:00.001+08:00

Our class had organised a class trip to Cameron Highland for our biology projects. Our main purpose of going there was to catch insects. However, all of us end up by playing around and enjoying ourselves there..haha..

By entering the butterfly farms, visitors can actually experience of having rabble of butterflies flying around the place.

There's a secret recipe at Binchang Camearon Highlands and we took our lunch there. Thanks to mei mei for introducing me the brownies with ice-cream. It's really sweet! We also ordered cakes like blueberry cheese cakes and a plate of chicken rice. However, the chicken rice was not very delicious and it's the most expensive food. (p.s: especially thanks to xiao di di or Davey for accompanying us to secret recipe) :>

Just have a taste of the chicken rice and you're probably not to ask for more again..

Visitors who love to relax by sipping tea and having a nice tea break in Cameron Highlands , tea plantation is just our place. ( Guess who's inside the picture)

Besides, there's a golden opportunity for the tourists to have a closer view of insects.

It was a truely memorable trip to Cameron Highlands, though we only caught an insect for our biology project.

Mooncake Festival

2007-09-25T21:17:00.000+08:00

Have u ever tasted mooncake cupcakes before?or have you ever seen starbucks mooncake before? If not, let's try it today before the mooncake festival is over..

Happy Mooncake Festival

2007-09-24T21:53:00.000+08:00

One of my favourite festival is mooncake festival. I would never forget those happy memory at my young age. Carrying brightly lit lanterns which had different cartoons, lighting colourful candles to form a birthday cake shape and blow them happily, burning my grandma’s favourite flowers and leaves , looking at the moon through a telescope, chasing each other happily under the moon until our lanterns had badly burnt ,fighting each other just for a mooncake and pomelo and many many more unforgettable memory that I would never forget. However, when I’m getting older and older , mooncake festival seems to be meaningless to me and I’ll never fool around again.

Since I’m getting mature, I’ll probably help my grandma during the ceremony of sacrificing to the Moon Goddess. It is believed to have originated from the ancient ceremony of sacrificing to the Moon Goddess for the year's end harvest. This is when families return to celebrate and give thanks for the year's bounty. Offerings of their harvest such as apples, pears, peaches, grapes, pomegranates , melons, oranges and pomelos were common. Other offerings cooked, baked etc included moon cakes, cooked taro, and water caltrope, a type of water chestnut resembling black buffalo horns.

Chinese people believe that on that day, the moon is the roundest and brightest signaling a time of completeness and abundance. It is also a romantic night for lovers, who sit holding hands on hilltops, riverbanks and park benches, captivated by the brightest moon of the year. Besides that, celebration for mooncake festival will be held at the night of that day and many parties will be organized for family reunions and community gatherings. (P.S: wishing chien can organize the mooncake festival party successfully in our school).

Mooncake Story
During the Yuan dynasty (A.D. 1280-1368) China was ruled by the Mongolians. Rebel leaders unhappy with the overlords, plotted to overthrow the government. As the Mid-Autumn Festival drew near, the rebels ordered cakes baked and distributed to the villages. Messages of the outline of the attack were baked into the cakes.

On the night of the Festival, the rebels with the help of local villagers, successfully overthrew the government and later established the Ming dynasty (1368-1644 A.D.). Hence from then on, the Mooncake Festival is celebrated on a large scale.

so, wishing all of you a very happy mooncake festival...and tomorrow 'll be the day..

Person Of The Week: Kenny Ortega- The Emmy Award-Winner Behind 'High School Musical' and 'High School Musical 2'

2007-09-19T17:47:00.000+08:00

Director Kenny Ortega accepts the award for best director - television for "High School Musical" onstage during the 2007 NCLR ALMA Awards held at the Pasadena Civic Auditorium June 1, 2007.

Although the cast sings "We're all in this together" in the popular song from Disney's "High School Musical," most people credit the success of the surprise hit movie to one man -- director and choreographer Kenny Ortega.

The highly anticipated sequel to "High School Musical" premieres tonight on the Disney Channel, which is owned by ABC News' parent company, Disney. The first movie was nothing short of a phenomenon. "It has become, in many ways, everything I've always dreamed to be a part of," Ortega said.

The original movie debuted last year with little fanfare, but as one critic said, it quickly "blindsided the entire industry." The original "High School Musical" became a megahit, seen by more than 170 million people and spawning the No. 1 selling album of last year. "I think it's been so successful because … we've created a world where you can dream, a world where you can hope, a world where you can be courageous, a world where you don't have to stick to the status quo to define who you are as a young person," Ortega said.

Ortega began performing and choreographing when he was in high school in California. "For a long while there I thought maybe I'd missed the boat in terms of being born at the wrong time -- musicals not being a current sort of way of entertaining," he said. But in the 1970s he met the legendary Gene Kelly and worked with him on the set of the movie "Xanadu," launching Ortega's career to superstardom.

Despite his legendary successes over two decades ago, the brightest time in Ortega's career may be right now. "I don't know that dance has ever been bigger," he said. "I wasn't here in the golden age of movie musicals but dance is everywhere [now]." Whether it's on hit television shows like ABC's "Dancing with the Stars" or FOX's "So You Think You Can Dance" or in movies like "Hairspray," dance is all over the media.We need to escape sometimes and I think dance offers us a wonderful way to do that," Ortega said.

And the director and choreographer has offered children and tweens around the world an opportunity to do just that -- escape into the world of "High School Musical." "To know that you've given something that matters and has inspired and that moves a child in this capacity is truly awesome," Ortega said. "I'm wonderfully proud of that."

Do You Know That?

2007-09-04T21:29:00.000+08:00

New owners and a massive television broadcasting deal have helped English football clubs spend more than £530m on players this summer, a survey says. The study, by Deloitte Sports Group, shows the spending was about two-thirds higher than the £330m of summer 2006. Of the money spent by top-flight clubs, about £110m went to lower-league sides while some £265m went outside England.The spree came as a three-season, £1.7bn, deal for domestic and overseas television rights began. Several clubs - including Liverpool, Manchester City and West Ham - also benefited from ambitious new owners bolstering the transfer fund kitty.

Liverpool paid £20.5m for Fernando Torres this summer.

Costly keeper
"This summer's transfer spending by English clubs has beaten all previous records," said Paul Rawnsley of Deloitte. "But as Premier League clubs will receive around £300m of extra broadcast payments during the 2007/08 season the increase in transfer spending is not a surprise." Mr Rawnsley said that player wages would also increase - though by a much lower proportion than the rise in transfer spending. Darren Bent and Kieron Richardson began the season at new clubsThe average transfer fee paid by Premier League clubs rose from about £3.5m a year ago to £4m. The number of transfers also grew - from about 80 to more than 100.

Twelve top flight clubs spent more than £20m on players. While established Premier League clubs occupied the top three spots - Manchester United (£51m), Liverpool (£50m) and Tottenham Hotspur (£40m) - the fourth biggest spenders were new boys Sunderland, whose £35m included £9m for goalkeeper Craig Gordon from Scottish side Hearts. On a net transfer basis - when sales of players were also taken into account - spending by Premier League sides reached £420m during the 2007 January and summer transfer windows, up from £140m in 2006.

In Europe, Real Madrid were the top summer spenders, with the purchase of Gabriel Heinze and Arjen Robben from Manchester United and Chelsea respectively taking their outlay to about £80m.Rivals Barcelona spent about £50m and overall clubs in the main five European leagues - England, Spain, Italy, France and Germany - spent £1bn."

It comes as no surprise to see Real Madrid and Barcelona spending at least as much as their English rivals on transfers, given that they have the highest revenues in world football in 2005/06," said Alan Switzer, of Deloitte."Broadcast revenues are again the key to explaining the high transfer spending by the two giants of Spanish football, who unlike their Premier League counterparts can sell their own broadcast rights."

Simple Secret to Improve Our Outlook On Life

2007-08-28T16:36:00.000+08:00

Our life is like a piece of white paper. We can draw colourful pictures on it, but we can also draw dull pictures on it. If we are always a happy person, then the pictures that we draw are colourful, just like having a colourful life. In contrast, if we only keep ourselves in the black and dull world, then we’ll probably have an unhappy life.

Nowadays, many people in this world are having psychological problems. They do not have self-confidence and always think that they are useless persons in the world. However, I personally feel that humour is the best remedy to get rid of this problem. Let’s look at a difficult situation. If you were having a party and running short of tomato sauce but had lots of chilli sauce, what would you do?

A humorous person would have a brilliant idea. When the party was going on, everyone would see a message next to the tomato sauce. “Please don’t take too much, God is observing you.” Everyone would laugh happily and take only a little. There would be another message next to the chilli sauce. “ Everyone can take as many as you want, God is observing the tomato sauce now.” Therefore, the party goes on smoothly and everyone enjoys themselves happily.

What I want to emphasize is humour really helps one in their lives when they face obstacles. If we change the way we see things, the things that we see will change. Friends, if you are facing a problem now but have no any idea how to solve it or you are afraid to face it, why not change the way you see the problem and change the way you think? See the problem as a pause and you will learn something from it. A sense of humor is part of the art of leadership, of getting along with people, of getting things done. Humour not only helps one to brighten his or her life but also will brighten other’s lives.

Humor is the great thing, the saving thing. The minute it crops up, all our irritations and resentmens slip away and a sunny spirit take their place.

Happy Birthday

2007-08-25T09:44:00.000+08:00

(specially dedicated to Chien)

Happy birthday to a special friend!
Although I haven't known you many years,
Perhaps because you've dried so many tears,
Pleasure reigns as I these greetings send.
Your happiness should last till all things end!

Because you've been so sweet and understanding,
In toughest times you've made me laugh and smile,
Rejoice in your own specialness awhile,
This I'm not requesting but demanding!

How else to make yourself the celebration,
Doing what does not come naturally?
Always your concern has been for me,
Yet now you must endure my adoration!

Happy Birthday and Happy Sweet 18!

A True Friend

2007-08-25T08:40:00.000+08:00

For me, family and friend are equally important in my life. I don’t have hundreds of friends but I may have hundreds of people I know. However, as far as my actual friends, they don’t number in hundreds. This is because in the reality world, it is hard to find a true friend and friendship takes time and effort.

Nowadays, the word of friend is used widely and it has become symbolize anyone you know. But do you have how many “true friends” in your life? As we know, a true friend is deeper than what we label as a friendship. What does it mean to be a true friend? A true friend is always there for you when your other friends turn their back. A true friend is supportive when the others say give up. A true friend always has a shoulder to cry on when everyone else leaves you alone. The most important thing is a true friend always honest, loyal and true with you. So, do you think your “true friend” has all the qualities that I had mentioned above? If you do have one, please don’t let them go away as you could not find another one until it is too late.
Good friends are hard to find. Therefore, we must appreciate them. However, before you need to have true friend, you must learn to be a true friend. First of all, you should have the following qualities.

First, you should be honest with your friend. I personally believe that honesty is the best policy. A friend that is honest with you about everything, the friendship will go far. Secondly, true friends should have trust in each other. A true friend will let you know their feeling and they will keep the secrets as well. Thirdly, you should be loyal to the friendship. Finally, try to forgive and forget when your friend makes mistake and hurts your feeling. This is the most important thing to keep a friendship alive. I have friends who have lost their friendship because of quarrels and arguments in each other. Their friendship had ended just because of small matter. If they could step out and try to forgive each other, their friendship may last longer than I thought.

Bear in mind, good friends are hard to come by. What I ‘m trying to emphasize is appreciate your good friends around you and this will make yourself a better life and better change.

A friend never leaves your side
When they know you need someone to lean on.

A friend picks you up
Everytime you seem to fall.

A friend forces you to laugh
When all you want to do is cry.

A friend encourages you
To do the best you can do.

A friend encourages you to never change
Because you're beautiful just the way you are.

A friend takes away your beer
When they know you're reaching your limit.

A friend takes you out for ice cream
When they know you're partner just dumped you.

A friend does almost anything you ask them to
Without hesitating or arguing back with you.

A friend stays beside you
Forever through thick and thin.

A friend is a sister, a brother, and sometimes a lover

Here to hold your hand and help you through life Forever and ever.

Happy Independence of 50 years in Malaysia

2007-08-23T23:31:00.000+08:00

After independence in 1957, Kuala Lumpur was the capital of the Federation of Malaya and continued to be the capital of the renamed Federation of Malaysia in 1963. For the occasion of independence, a large stadium, Stadium Merdeka (Independence Stadium), was built, where Malaysia's first Prime Minister, Tunku Abdul Rahman, declared Malaya's independence in front of a massive crowd.What does 50 years of independence means to me? For me, I am very lucky to stay in Malaysia (although I'm born in u.s.a).What's so good about being Malaysian ? First of all, we are no longer to "kowtow" to the British. We are able to force a successful nation without resorting to the rule of gun. This has been due to the wise leadership,teamwork and innate good sense of Malaysian people.

Malaysia is a peaceful country and our record of peace allow us to be free from the fear of violence and retribution.I have friend from China who wants to study here instead of other countries because of the peacefulness in Malaysia.Therefore, I'm very happy and lucky to have a golden opportunity to study here instead of other countries.

Being a Malaysian means that we grow up in a multidimensional environment. Malaysia made merry by the ethnic diversity of its multicultural backdrop, and is populated by the major races of Malays, Chinese, and Indians among other races. Our group culture is very distinct from the individualism of the west. We participate actively in one another's culture and lifestyle. We do celebrate festivals together or even learn and speak one another's language.

In year 2007, Malaysia will celebrate 50 years of independence. The month of August will be filled with a myriad of parades, cultural performances, street shows and carnivals to commemorate the country's Independence or Merdeka Day on 31st August. Thus, "Visit Malaysia 2007" campaign is launched to invite all visitors to share in the joy and excitement of this momentous occasion.

According to what Minister had said...

Prime Minister of Malaysia,YAB Dato' Seri Abdullah Bin Haji Ahmad Badawi
"In 2007, we will celebrate the golden anniversary of our independence. This country that we love will turn fifty, and this milestone provides us with the opportunity to appreciate the journey that we have taken to build this nation."

Deputy Prime Minister of Malaysia,YAB Dato' Seri Mohd Najib Bin Tun Haji Abdul Razak
"Since the country achieved independence in 1957,we have successfully faced various challenges
and continue to move forward and remain stable and strong as a nation, and are thankful for the blessings we have received so far."

Minister Tourism of Malaysia,YBM Datuk Seri Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor
"Since time immemorial, Malaysia has welcomed visitors from foreign lands. In modern times,the tourism industry in Malaysia officially began when a department was opened in the Ministry of Trade and Industry in 1959."

Through multi-racial and of different religions, the people live in constant peace and harmony where exchanges of warm. Therefore, I have no regret to stay in Malaysia because I always consider this country as my first home.

So, Happy Birthday To Malaysia and Happy Birthday to Aunty Lee Lee (as her birthday is on Aug 31 too)!
