Opinion about PDA.
Public Displays of Affection, a.k.a. PDA, come in a variety forms either good or bad. The good PDAs such as holding hands, quick kiss, saying I love you, playing partner’s hair and hugging. The bad PDAs could be neck sucking, tongue kissing, up skirting, saying I want you and butt touching. In most of the Western countries, it is very common we see people doing all the good PDAs in public. In some cases, PDAs were put-off in certain environments or situations. But in Malaysia, where have a Muslim majority, certain good PDAs mentioned above sometimes are not appropriately or accepted in public especially among Muslim community. However, they believe those PDAs shall be put-upon at a closed place or area if they wish to express the act.

What do you think about LOVE? I think love means different things to different people. For me, love is the power that has all the positive and good things in life. Love has been talked about and written since the beginning of time, in every religion, by every great thinker, philosopher and leader. When we are in love, we are using the greatest power in the universe. People who have great lives think and talk about what they love more than what they do not love.

Love story.

For all that I know and I want everybody to know that is I love my family very much. And as long I can remember, my first love is when I was at secondary school in form 5. Her name is Nurzatul Munawwarah Now we are still keeping in touch as a friend because we need to concentrate in our study.

If . . .
 There are many lost cities around the world. Below are the top 10 most amazing lost cities ever know:
1. MACHU PICCHU (Peru): The Lost City of the Incas.
2. ANGKOR (Cambodia): Contains the world's largest religious monument.
3. MEMPHIS (Egypt): ancient capital of Egypt.
4. PETRA: stone structures carved into rocks.
5. PALMYRA (Syria): the Bride of the Desert.
6. POMPEII (Italy): buried by the volcano.
7. PALENQUE (Mexico): one of Mayan's most exquisite cities.
8. VIJAYANAGAR (India): capital of one of the largest Hindu empires.
9. EPHESUS (Turkey): one of the most important cities of early Christianity.
10. SANCHI (India): the best-preserved group of Buddhist monuments.

If I have to choose, I would choose Angkor which located at Cambodia.
Angkor is one of the most important archaeological sites in South-East Asia. Stretching over some 400 km2, including forested area, Angkor Archaeological Park contains the magnificent remains of the different capitals of the Khmer Empire, from the 9th to the 15th century. They include the famous Temple of Angkor Wat and, at Angkor Thom, the Bayon Temple with its countless sculptural decorations.

The reason I choose Angkor is because of its architecture technology which contain high architectural, archaeological and artistic significance.
Angkor, in Cambodia’s northern province of Siem Reap, is one of the most important archaeological sites of Southeast Asia. Its approximately 400 square kilometres and consists of scores of temples, hydraulic structures (basins, dykes, reservoirs, canals) as well as communication routes. For several centuries Angkor, was the centre of the Khmer Kingdom. With impressive monuments, several different ancient urban plans and large water reservoirs. Temples such as Angkor Wat, the Bayon, Preah Khan and Ta Prohm, exemplars of Khmer architecture, are closely linked to their geographical context as well as being imbued with symbolic significance. The architecture and layout of the successive capitals bear witness to a high level of social order and ranking within the Khmer Empire. Angkor is therefore a major site exemplifying cultural, religious and symbolic values, as well as containing high architectural, archaeological and artistic significance.
The park is anhabited, and many villages, some of whom the ancestors are dating back to the Angkor period are scattered throughout the park. The population practices agriculture and more specifically rice cultivation.

The Angkor complex encompasses all major architectural buildings and hydrological engineering systems from the Khmer period and most of these “barays” and canals still exist today.

Another significant element of the Angkor complex is the irrigation system of the region based on the great reservoirs, which provided the economic infrastructure for the successive Khmer capitals and their rulers.

The Khmer king Jayavarman II, whose assumption of power around 800 AD marks the beginning of the Angkorian period.

The ancient Khmers relied heavily on rice growing. The farmers planted rice near the banks of the Tonlé Sap or in the hills when it was flooded. The farms were irrigated by Barays, or giant water reservoirs and canals. Sugar palm trees, fruit trees and vegetables were grown in the villages. Fishing gave the population their main source of protein, which was turned into Prahok or dried or roasted or steamed in banana leaves. Rice was the main staple along with fish. Pigs, cattle and poultry were kept under the farmers houses as they were on stilts to keep away from flooding. Houses of farmers were situated near the rice paddies on the edge of the cities, the walls were of woven bamboo, thatched roofs and were on stilts.The common people wore a sampot which the front end was drawn between the legs and secured at the back by a belt. Nobles and kings wore finer and richer fabrics. Women wore a strip of cloth to cover the chest while noble women had a lengthened one that went over the shoulder. Men and women wore a Krama. The main religion was Hinduism, followed by Buddhism in popularity. Vishnu and Shiva were the favorite deities.

What would I like to invent?
Well, I was thinking about a few things but I think if I want to invent something I want to make a thing that I could sell and everybody love it. I was thinking to make a machine that can iron and fold cloths. I know this machine will be a huge success and highly demand because every house in the world need this machine like we need a washing machine.
Why I want to invent this machine? It is because my mom, my aunt and every housewifes in the world need it. When every housewifes in the need it then they will buy it and when they buy I will get rich. I always heard my mom and aunt said they do not have time to do the ironing and folding all the cloths. When they get back from work, they feels tired and during the weekend sometimes they are full with other activities. And from there I realise that every house need this machine. But before that I need to invent the machine.
I tried to googling around and I found there is a shirt folding board sold over the internet. This ingenious little gadget folds shirts to a perfect 9-inch-by-12-inch rectangle in just seconds. I guess that would be a good starting point for my invention. Now I need to make notes of my idea and describe every component of that idea with as much detail as possible. Include a sketch, clip pictures or summarize articles that closely describe each component.
Where possible I could develop a prototype for my invention. This prototype is a working example of my invention. Its main purpose is to show how my invention works, but this is also a good time to consider how the ultimate product will be made.
I believe this invention would help and make every housewifes' life in the world easier when thinking about their unsettle ironing and folding task.

Nick Vujicic was born on born 4 December 1982 in Brisbane, Australia. He has no limbs and legs but only has a small foot with two toes. Actually this is the first time I heard about him and saw his motivational speak on the youtube. His story is an inspiring story and took me an hour to watch and listen to his life's journey.

I can honestly say that if I were Nick, I would be angry, angry at God.  However, Nick chose to give his life over to God and use his disability to serve.  After watching him over the youtube I have learned that:

  • Love is for everybody and love is the most powerful force that can change us to be good or     bad.
  • All of us is beautiful just the way we are and we should proud of it. We should proud of everybody too and complement them.
  • We can either be angry for what we don't have or be grateful for what we do have.
  • When we find the why (our goal or mission) the how comes.
  • When God created us, God has a purpose for all of us.
  • Anyone can live A Life Without Limits.
  • Obstacles = Opportunities.
  • Victory is when your heart changes and change for us to be better and better.
  • Everyone falls down. Sometimes we do not feel like we can get back up but actually we can.  Find the strength to finish strong and never give up!

It could be an over worked word but there is no other way to describe Nick Vujicic. When he tells the story of his birth, the shock and the confusion suffered by his parents will make us in tears.

His message could helped everybody out there by telling them that life has no limits and if we falls down we need to get up. And also when we walk, took a step at a time.

Mind Your Language.

Season 1 Episod 1: The First Lesson

Mind Your Language is a British comedy television series. The series was directed by Stuart Allen where the set in an adult education college in London and focuses on the English as a Foreign Language class taught by Mr. Jeremy Brown, who had to deal with a motley crew of foreign students.

In this episod, Jeremy Brown started his new job as the teacher of English as a Foreign Language class, and met his students for the first time. A diverse group of ten foreign adult students in London, hailing from nine different countries.

From Europe come two female students, the flirtatious and beautiful Danielle Favre from France and prim and proper Anna Schmidt from Germany. Also two young single men, Giovanni Capello from Italy and Maximillian Andrea Archimedes Papandrious from Greece; and a laid-back middle-aged bartender, Juan Cervantes from Spain who was not speaks English. From Asia come a revolutionary-minded secretary from the Chinese Embassy, Chung Su-Lee and a Japanese businessman, Taro Nagazumi. Also three students from the Subcontinent, a devout Punjabi Sikh, Ranjeet Singh, an unemployed Pakistani Muslim, Ali Kurdistani, who are constantly at each other's throats; and finally an Urdu-speaking housewife, Jameela Ranjha who can't speak a word of English.

The school principal, Ms. Dolores Courtney, nearly dismisses Mr. Brown immediately as she had requested a female teacher, but he is allowed to stay on a trial basis.

Few selected students character in the season and episod.

Chung Su-Lee, played by Pik-Sen Lim, is a secretary at the Chinese Embassy. She is never seen without her little red book of Mao, which she often quotes from.

Maximillian Andrea Archimedes Papandrious, played by Kevork Malikyan, is a Greek shipping office worker from Athens, and is often paired with Giovanni. He is attracted to Danielle.

Juan Cervantes, played by Ricardo Montez, is a Spanish bartender with an optimistic streak. Juan is always laughing at himself, confident of his answers even when they are completely wrong.

Ranjeet Singh, played by Albert Moses, is a London Underground worker from Punjab in India and a devout Sikh. He was mistaken to be Pakistani when Mr.Brown asked him to sit next to his 'fellow countryman' Ali Nadim. He constantly argues with Ali, who is a Pakistani Muslim.

Ali Kurdistani, played by Dino Shafeek, is an unemployed Pakistani and the first student to make his appearance. He is originally from Lahore, Pakistan. Ali's typical catchphrases are "yes please!", "oh blimey!", "squeeze me please!" and "jolly good."



ENTRY 7 

 If I am a super hero.

If I am granted to have a power like a super hero, I would like to have a power like Captain America. Captain America's strength, endurance, agility, speed, reflexes, durability, and healing are at the zenith of natural human potential. Captain America has been my idol super hero since I was a kid. The reason I adore Captain America is because his ability to defend, attack, run, jump and the most important is his disc-shaped shield made from an experimental alloy of steel and the fictional vibranium. If I have those super power, I want to help other people that in the need.

In my opinion, having super power is not important because we do not need to have super power to be a supr hero. Everybody is a super hero to somebody for example a loving couple, the man she love is definitely a super hero for her.



ENTRY 8
