Little thought

5 months now.. Its not easy but definitely a worthy experience.. Patience is much needed..

Yes, 5 months ago, my first very own restaurant is up and running.. Ever since then, I learned new things and experience more.. It is not an easy way but definitely a good learning process..

Will continue to work harder to make this happen.. Patience is crucial, support is a must, communications is important!

Trip that we had been waiting for 4 years!

Finally! After 4 year spend in classes! Diploma, higher diploma and now final year degree.. We finally get to stick our asses on Emirates to France!

This post is just gonna be a short post~ filtering the photos~ haha~

Ooo.. Look! What's that in the photo?!

To be better or to be worst?

To be better or to be worst? The post is very subjective so it's up to you to decide what is good and what is bad after reading this post.

Foods are always the most important part of human life, in fact, it is the most basic need for human being. Looking into the foods trend nowadays, most of it are meats and fried stuff that interested most parties.

I'm a student specializing in culinary arts. So we basically need to learn a lot about foods and that's real bad/good. Cause there are facts that we will never want to(maybe you will want to) know for the rest of your life.

People always want better things in their life and also better foods. So there will be people coming out with idea to help improve the foods(quantity and quality) for those who wants it., simple rule of demand and supply. How they do it?
GMO- Genetically Modified Organism/Foods or Injection of hormones into chickens, cows and sheeps. All this are create to help to improve the quality and quantity of foods supply. Injection of hormones can help to fasten the growth of the chickens or cows so that they reach maturity in short time so that can be supply to the market. While GMO helps to improve the length of harvest, so that shorter time needed to harvest the products and more batches of products can be produce to supply to the market. GMO doesn't only help to improve the length of harvest but also have others benefits to the production. Find out more from Google.

Now the question is, where are the hormones goes? Pretty obvious that the hormones will eventually end up in a human body. And since the hormones able to fasten the growth of chickens and cows, there is possibility that it can help to fasten our growth/ maturity. If we are aware enough of the news around us, you might notice there are news somehow/indirectly can be related to this matter. Early maturity for young girls and boys, man boobs and other relevant stuff.

So things create are suppose to improve human life but it is true? It's all up to your own judgement. Have fun reading it.

I'm not here to promote vegetarianism or trying scare the shit out of you all but I just want to share what I know and what I learned. Simply because we human are built to survive not to die. So think of it a little bit, choose what you believe. Find out more information. Don't simply trust without facts.

There are more to be share, there are more to be known, there are more to find out, and there are more lies to cover up. 

I fish a fish or fish fish a me?

Hello people~ Hopefully there are people here~ this is gonna be a short post to test the fun of posting using the blogger app for iPhone~

So the other I went fishing with friends at Semenyir. Yes, Semenyir.. Far from the town~ anyways, it is not a pleasent trip I would say.. No big fishes, and those fishes seem to be high or much aggresaive than normal time.. Mating season I suppose~

Well, it bad day for me.. As I using my new rod tht i baught 3 weeks back~ and some new hooks~ luck wasn't at my side as when i try to unhook one of the fish, it jump and one of the hook penetrated into my lady finger.. Picture will tell u the rest of the story..

Jom Ganyang! Kill all the Aedes!

Mosquitoes are annoying and irritating! Agree? Yes, especially when u trying hard to sleep and almost fall asleep, it flew close to your ear and you slap yourself hard. Then you are awake again. That's happen a lot to me last time. End up I waste my whole night killing them and searching them around my room. 

Well, unfortunate for me, got bitten by aedes once at beginning of 2010 and it is really suffering for me. I feel weak and uncomfortable. My head is so heavy and feel like just laying on my bed 24 hrs. Throat was in pain and hard for me to drink water. The worst part is blood was taken almost everyday to measure my white blood palette. It was a 2 weeks hell for me. 

So people, it is important for us to fight against Aedes. It not just keeping yourself from suffering, it also help others. Make sure you area was clean and Aedes free! Watch the video below and understand the important to keeping Aedes away. It save people around you from suffering or worst death.

Time flies... Its been 3 years I studying in Taylor's University which used to be Taylor's College... Today English Class lecturer asked us to write a paragraph about ourself on what had changed since the first day in college/university...

Well, to be honestly... I changed a lot... mostly because of people around me... all kind of characteristic... fun, easy-going, crazy, serious, selfish, EMO and a lot more... But I have to admit without them, my life won't be so colorful! I got funky color, bright color, BLACK&WHITE and rainbow and bla bla bla... Whatever the color is, it makes my life better...

hmmm... I wish to lay on field full with green~ or laying on the bed of sand at the seaside~ Looking at the clear blue sky with cloud blocking the sun and the cold wind is blowing... With the cold touch on my skin makes me feel so relax...

I guess I am really need some rest now~ Good Night people~

On Monday, I went fishing with Joshua, Nicholas, Alex and two of Joshua's friends, Jack and Kit... It was kinda dried fishing trip with only 1 patin and 2 roohoos (with 5 person fishing and 6 fishing hours, 3 fishes are damn little...) The biggest disappointment was when Joshua's friend, Kit lost a big patin, around 4-5kg which only inches away from us...6 men stunned for 1 minute and I sat on the ground looking at the big fish that swim away... I still feel Emo whenever I think of it... Anyways, the bright side, at least I got 2 roohoos and Joshua got one patin~

Well thats all for my first week of holiday~ Will update more often if I got time~

The Greatness Guide

I been reading this book recently, a gift from Mr.Patrick. Even I just started to read for the first few pages, I felt that this book inspired me... Its makes me think more mature and I realize a lot of things that never come across my mind... hopefully this book will make me a better person.. better leader for now and in future...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Different topic...

I been really tired recently... not physically but mentally... being a leader is not easy... to convince people is even harder... to make ur team mate think as how you think is double the hardness...
Well, I admitted that I not a good leader but I trying my best... Most of them think that they have their personal problem and choose not to give a damn to things like project/assignment tht they should be worried about... And when you ask them to something, they will just do it for the sake of doing it without thinking much deeply on the benefits of everyone else in the team...
The sentence I quote from the book I read the best way to be success is to make your employees think like a leader... but to make them thinks is not that easy... They have their own mind and I am just a leader by the name... afterall we are all still students... Whatever I said will be something like microorganism that nobody will even bother to care of... Maybe for them it just an assignment to make them pass their degree... but for me, it not just to pass my degree, it time for me, for us to practice to be a better person in future...
That's the problem the people have, they think for short distance and never care much afterall...
I am not saying they are selfish because sometime we have to be selfish depending on what situation we have... I'm selfish too... What I saying is they need to be more understanding and put some efforts to makes things work out for everyone...

Exam is half way finishing and everyday what I heard was people telling each others how hard they study but nothing got into their mind and whatever it is... but the fact is they do know... Most of my friends look at me and ask, 'hey why u so free one like u are not worried bout the exam'. I will always tell them there is nothing for me to worry about, I had studied what I think I should and why must I worried even sometime I dun even think that I know the answer for the questions ask in the exam paper.
They will always replied me 'ohh... sure la... u so smart ma... can memorize easily within short time'.
Well my friends, I am not smart, I just understand what I read and analyze better... In fact all of you are better than me, Yes... you are... I am not sure smart/genius type of person... I just understand what I studied and use them. So STOP memorizing START understanding and analizing!
If you want to know why you can't understand the sentences, it is because you assume things before you even finish the whole sentences. Focus and read carefully, find the key words, then come out with the main point.

Here is another things that turns me off all the times... people that always assume things as they think but in fact thats not true at all... Yes, it's good that you express your feeling the way you want it but can you think of what others might feel and think? Especially you are commmenting about something bad about people or things... What people will feel when they over heard what you said? You definitely feel that you did nothing wrong by expressing ur feeling but how bout others if they did nothing wrong and got bad comment just because you assume things in your ways?
Dear my little friends, please think from their point of view... please understand the whole thing before you even make the judgement. Afterall, who are you to judge them if you are not better than them? And even if you are better than them, still do you think you know everything and able to judge a person?
Think again... Always thinks before you speak!
I felt really bad today because I felt offenced by sentences written to me... Seriously, I am the worm in your brain that know everything... I am not the person that write the future of everyone... I do not know what in your mind and how I suppose to know what happen... I just transfered a msg to you and you assume that I ruin your plan? Read the sentence I wrote to you carefully, its not me the one who invite him... He never come accross my mind until somebody remind me of it and I just so happen to ask you bout him...
Please, I hate it so much...


It's been really long time ago that I ever wrote such a long entry... There are a lot in my brain/heart that I want them to gone but I just can't do it... I think I should stop here... Goodbye readers... Sorry for not updating... hope you enjoy reading this entry~ oh ya, remember to drop a comment if you feel like what I felt~

I wanna watch Toy Story 3 !

It's TOY STORY!!!!!!!!!!!!! One of my all time favourite Disney's movie!!!!!!! And this time Nuffnang is giving out 50 pairs of movie tickets to first 50 Nuffnangers who blog bout Toy Story 3!!! For more detail click here~

So what's toy/toys I wan to see in the movie? Definitely all the toys!!! New toys, old toys and All time favourite Woody and Buzz!!!!!

Well, if I have to pick 1 toy that I would want to see in ToyStory 3, I will pick CHUNK!!! The muscular spikey huge little toy~ haha!

Even with all the spikes and muscles.. He looks really cute! Especially with his smilling face~ owh... Oh god... I sound so girlish~ But I just love it!

Here some description on Chunk;
Chunk will rock your world! This gargantuan creature sports protective shoulder spikes, while his ferocious fists are ready to smash whatever enemy gets in his way. Chunk’s oversized limbs are fully poseable, making him ready for hours of imaginative fun. As an added bonus, the press of a hidden head spike will spin Chunk's facial expression from friendly to fierce! No batteries necessary.

The description make my cute Chunk sound very fierce~ :( What we need to do is don't press the spikes, he dun like it that's why he turn into fierce face~ Yeah spikey Chunk!!!
