No Promise

Hey baby, when we are together,
doing things that we love.
Every time you're near,
I feel like I'm come in heaven, feeling high
I don't want to let go, girl.
I just need you to know, girl.

I don't wanna run away, baby,
you're the one I need tonight,
No promises
Baby, now I need to hold you tight,
I just wanna die in your arms

here tonight

Selamat Ari Raya

While you guys enjoy your lemang, rendang,and that yummy butter biscuit, spare a thought for Raja Petra - unlawfully detained by so-called Muslims for selfish reasons under the guise of sake of national safety.

Raja Petra's wife wrote:

Umno preparing food for 200,000 people for their Open House for the 1st day of Hari Raya and what would the cost be per head?

How can Muslims of high authority use this unIslamic law, the ISA, on people during the month of Ramadan (the holy month for Muslims), put them under such barbaric conditions and rehabilitate them according to their perverted standards. Where is the compassion, where is the humanity and most important of all, where is the love of mankind that Islam enjoins its followers to observe? Can someone please explain all this to me? I am really very confused. All I can see is hypocrisy and man's inhumanity to man, not compassion, consideration and common decency.

Jakim is coming up with an Islamic rehabilitation program for my husband, it is a joke. Did they even understand what Pet wrote in the first place since it is in English? What he wrote was not anti-Islam.

Todays Tips:How to start the blog

Steps

  1. Find a decent blogging provider that appeals to you. Some may include MuseCrafters.com, Livejournal.com, JournalHome.com, Blogger,ChoseIt, WordPress.com , TheDiary.org, Mindsay.com, Blog.com, Blogagotchi.com, Diaryland.com, Blogdrive.com, weebly.com or Xanga.com. Most of these sites are pre-made with templates and push-button publishing that don't require much technical know-how.
  2. Once you sign up, you'll have a gallery of ready-made templates to choose from. With these, you can pick a color scheme and layout for your blog.
    • Most sites come with a set of predefined layouts and schemes that you can choose from. Select one and personalize it. Then add your name, interests, images, etc.
    • If you want to, get a more unique template, there are some sites up that have many of these that might make it look better. For example, PimpMyProfile.com or Pyzam.com.
  3. Add blogging freebies like buttons, images, blog chalks, imoods, tagboards (for example, myshoutbox.com), guest maps, guestbooks, comment boxes for readers' input, etc.
  4. Explore other blog sites that offer more features for a small fee, such as Typepad.com and ChoseIt.
  5. Decide on whether or not you want your blog to be private or public: do you want any Internet visitor to be able to read your blog, or do you just want your friends and family to be able to read it? Most blog sites offer the ability to password-protect your published posts so only those who you approve of can view what you've written.
  6. After you've set up your blog, write a few posts to test it out, and make any adjustments to the layout or style that you see fit. Like if you just got a new template, you'd check your blog to see if you like it, right? At first, it will seem tough to figure out what to write, but once you get into a routine of daily blogging, you will find it addictive. Write about your day, your thoughts, events, ideas, fears, pleasures, the news, current affairs, art, or anything you are interested in!
  7. Visit other blogs to build a blogging circle. When you leave comments, add your blogging address so they can visit you too. (Note: This will not work if your blog is private)
  8. Publish your blog by sending the URL to your friends or publish the URL on your website. Add the URL to posts you make on other blogs. Done

Dreaming

I find myself staring at glow-in-the-dark stars more often than I should be.

And every time I see an umbrella with that shade of pink, the thought of running after it and tapping the shoulder crosses my mind, and within microseconds, reality bites that train of thought and reminds me.

She's still far away from me.

I miss her....

Vacation Club?Travel Agency?

25th September: Today I learned about another existing business in this world. I believe most of you heard about travel agency. Have you heard about vacation club? Well, I never heard of it so it's quite new for me. One day, I received a sms from an unknown mobile number saying that I won a free ticket/voucher after I filled up the registration form during the past career fair and wanted me to get it from a place which is quite far from my living place. I thought it is a spam sms so I just ignored it. Few days later, I received a phone call from the company asking me whether I'm going to get the free gift from them or not and I agreed to meet them.

Once I reached that company, I knew it will be not that easy to get my so called free gift. A well-dressed girl came out and shake my hand. "Okay, here it comes." I said in my heart. The girl invited me to sit down and started to do the talking. I asked her directly, "what should I do to get my free gift?". She smiled and said that I just need to complete the 45 minutes section. Well, I started to do the counting. Then she began to explain the budget different between travel alone, rely on travel agency and vacation club.

Frankly, I enjoyed the presentation and conversation because I was learning new information. Basically the main difference between these three are the travel budget and flexibility of travel time(vacation club is the best plan overall). And the main point of the presentation is the girl have to do her best to persuade me to join the membership of her company (which is the vacation club).

The funniest part was when she called her manager to come out and explain to me the joining and the membership fee. For me, the most important thing as a manager is the good impression you give to the client, mostly this related to the wearing. That so called manager wore a plain t-shirt with a short pant and it's SHE, around 40 years old. I almost laughed but I was still in control. She explained to me for five minutes and then asked me to decide. I rejected the offer in a good way. "It's not the right time" I answered which means "I don't need it and I just want my free gifts". "Okay, I go get your free gifts" the manager answered. Then, they started another tactics. The girl who presented to me approached me again after the manager went in the room. She did her last attempt to persuade me by brought out the "parents" as bait.

"Last time I was poor and now I'm capable of giving them the opportunity to go travel", "What do you think your parents wish to do" and so on. Oh man, give me a break! She made a fatal error here and I was quite angry. She thought she know my parents better than I does?! I was still in control and rejected her in a good way. And the so called manager took another 30 minutes to get the free gift! In total, I spent approximately 3 precious hours for the free gift!

What a day.....

Patient Is A Virtue

There are some people born with infinite patience while there are many others like me, trying to be patient. To me, trying to wait for things to happen by themselves and unfolding in their own time is harder than watching paint dry on the wall. Extremely excruciating...a downright torture but I'm slowly realizing some things in life.







Cultivating a good temper and gentle disposition involves a lot of prayer and self-discipline. If possible, as human we would like to indulge our own whims and wants. Instead, the best and most influential people in history choose to forget themselves and influenced people greatly because of a few distinguishing features. One of them is the ability to think of others first before themselves..some like Mahatma Gandhi, Nelson Mandela, etc even choose to think of their people, or an entire nation and no longer care about their own freedom or well-being.




If I'd indulge in my own self-pity party and keep on blaming 'bad' people for 'bad' situations, I'll never learn from my mistakes and I shall never move on. In fact, I'll be ineffective and uninspiring..totally lacklustre and devoid of life or hope. I will no longer be a leader and a role model like how I aspire to be.









Therefore, I've decided to move on and learn to live in abundance in spite of annus horribilis. I shall look upon the Saviour and draw strength and joy from this everlasting spring. In fact, each day in the previous week was productive, exciting and colourful...bringing me so much of cheerful and interesting activities that I no longer feel ineffectual and indifferent in a small town. We're making baby steps in transforming the health, minds and hearts of the people in D.C. As I'm firing myself on all cylinders, I'm sure there are more fireworks amidst the obstacles to come. Bring it on, baby!

The pill will get you fit...

The scientist now have developed a pill that makes the body fit without the need for exercise. The drug fools the muscles into thinking they have worked out long and hard, which means they rapidly burn fat and boost fitness.

Basically, the drugs target muscle, boosting its ability to burn fat and allowing it to do more work without tiring. That is the principles on how it works.

Number of trials were halted over concerns about safety and its effectiveness over human body. So, expect the arrival on pharmacy shelves in couple of year later. Someone is making money on this drugs.

Whether it's a great news or bad news, it's up to you to decide..
