are you stupid?!

I agree when I heard one saying: "if your child do whatever you ask him / her to do, he's not clever, but stupid"

I agree to this statement because if your parents were to ask your to eat shit, (which no parents will ask) will you?!

 

our parents trained us to make our decisions on a situation since we are young, but how often do the let use make the decisions?

and most of the time, our parents will interfere with our decisions leaving us in rage. a state we cannot think clearly.

that is what most happened to teenagers and young adults. for us, most problems comes from our parents.

eg. - my mum don't let me do this.

      - my dad says no.

so, here no, there cannot, what can we actually do?

this is the problem with us, teenagers. we do not understand the things happening around us. what is the reasons to our parent's action. and why our parents acted.

due to these reasons, our heart will be filled with anger and wrath. this anger will consume us and thus leads to a great argument with our parents and it lock us out from understanding the reason to our parent's action.

 

we seldom take the time to look into what our parents did for us, and it will never be too late to start.

if you can truly understand our parent's thought, you will never grow.

 

do we know how to differentiate what's good and what's bad when we are young? do you know that what is right and what is best? then, do you know your parents actually teaches you how to differentiate it?

we are no one when we are young, our parents thought us to be something we are.

we are illiterate when we are born, our parents gave us the best education making us the degree holder we are to be in the future.

we came into this world naked, our parents provide as clothes and a place to keep us warm.

who are we without our parents?!

we all came into this world with nothing, and everything we own now are given by our parents!

 

so, referring to the quote "if your child do whatever you ask him / her to do, he's not clever, but stupid"

I beg to differ,

our parents asked us to to wash the plates before we use it with the reason to keep us from getting ill my ingesting some undetectable bacteria.

our parents asked us to do daily exercise to keep us healthy.

our parents asked us to do things that actually in the end, benefits us.

 

all these things that we do daily is thought by our parents with the main intention for our well being.

if you can take time and look into it properly, it's actually for our own good.

 

we want to make our decisions, but our parents interfere because they thinks we are doing it wrongly.

and the thing I have found out, no parents will want to see their child suffer from mistakes they made, or even mistakes we made. and all they wanted to do is to protect us from that. with that reason itself, it is enough for them to interfere.

 

most teenagers rebel because of peer pressure, as much as we can see from our life:

"my friend say..."

"why my friend can, I cannot?"

 

and seldome you see any teens saying:

"my mum says... and I think it's true"

"my parents do this for a reason."

 

this can't be blamed, because teens look at the short term while adults see things in a longer term which eventually leads to misunderstanding.

 

go and think, and you'll find it true.

 

I shall end this post with a quote:

"no one in this world is born clever. you must be ready to learn to be clever. learn from your mistakes, but most importantly, from other people's mistakes."

I shall write about this in the next post.~

hehe, cute conversation with my mum can be good sometimes XD

a big brother, the eldest brother.

well, with great power comes great responsibility.

by power, I don't mean supernatural powers, but rather power gained by being the eldest child in the family...

I wouldn't say that being the eldest in the family is easy or hard, it has a dark side as well as a bright side...

 

there are times when I am just too fed up to care about my younger sister and let her do the things she wanted even if it is going to do her no good. But, I am not heartless enough to let that happen.

when I was young, my sister would take toys from me, pinch me, or even toss a thing at me. But hey! I survive till now right?!

 

being the eldest means setting a good example for your younger siblings. doing what's right, not what's best. (which is the opposite of what WE are doing now)

be a role model and set proper examples, do what mum ask you to do and you are a good boy. (which most of us don't agree now, which is true)

and all of this has constrict us into a world of less freedom since we have to look after and set a good example for the younger.

 

the youngest in the family always get the things they wanted, to us, the eldest, we have to SOMETIMES give up the things we wanted. This is NATURAL.

sometimes, I have to give up my pride and say sorry to my sister.

sometimes, I have to give up the Internet time to my sister.

sometimes, I have to give up  the toys I once adored because my sister wants it.

but again, it is only sometimes.

 

it must be tough ain't it? being the eldest with no one to guide you while your younger siblings have you to guide them?

I beg to differ:

NO! your parents are your guide!

although we don't approve what they did to us, what they said to us. but what they do is from their heart with NO intention to harm us, just to EDUCATE us!

this is what I have known until now,and I believe it is still not too late to find out! whatever your parents do to you has a very good reason behind it! and trust me with that!

 

how many of you people outside has actually argue with your parents out there?

then, how many actually felt bad about that argument? (even if you still think you are right)

and last of all, have you discuss calmly about the argument later on with your parents? do you have a heart to heart talk with your parents, and understand their feelings? THIS is the most important!

and I can answer the above question with a proud YES!

 

 

this is why I can proudly say that I know how my parents feel when they punish me. I know how they feel when they have to ask me to give up a thing I like. And all these, I can be very sure in telling you that they don't feel as good as you do.

we must know, our limits while doing a thing.

we must know, what is right or wrong.

we must know, how to do a thing right.

we must know, how to influence our siblings.

all these things, we learn from none other than our parents!

 

 

 

of all these years, I have learn a very very important lesson for just being the eldest, which is patience and calmness.

I have learn to be patient with my sister.

learned to me calm when my parents scold me.

I would say that it is the most valuable asset of mine that people rarely have.

how many can sit and think calmly at turbulent times? times of argument with your parents or siblings? to think of a proper solution? and to choose the best solution to solve the problem arises?

this skill can be applied to my everyday life, meeting different types of people with different personality, thinking of a better way to communicate and the ability to come out with a wiser solution to solve a complication.

 

 

I am back home with my sis lately and believe it or not, she still drives me up the wall sometimes. *shhh*

 

200 million sperms and you are the ONE that made it through,

it can be taken as a blessing or a curse,

but since it is a reality that you are the "lucky winner" now, take it as a blessing for there is nothing you can do to change it. rather accept it than to rant about it for the rest of your life.

take it as a chance to be able to learn all the things sooner than any other of your siblings.

and take it as a chance to think and talk like an adult sooner to you parents, and much to your surprise, you may find out that what your parents have done are of your best interest.

 

 

that's for now.

till then!~

how to survive in a tough economy

this is a post done by referring to alot of other sites and study, some might be copy paste some are my own...

 

 

With gas prices and unemployment rising, the real estate market and the US dollar declining, all this will slowly but surely affect Malaysia. So, knowing how to protect yourself during tough times is indispensable.  Here are just a few suggestions that might help.

One of the first things that many people cut from a budget in hard times is insurance.  This is one of the most important financial protectors you can have in a rough spot.  Keep your medical, life, mortgage and auto insurance. It can assure you a protection when you are really in need!!! IMPORTANT!!!

Try to cut back on expenses that aren’t necessary. (I seriously need to keep thin in mind) That seems like an obvious solution, but really go through what you are spending each month and prioritize what is necessary and what you can live without.

If you have a credit debt, work with your creditors.  If things get really bad and you can’t make a payment, don’t shut off your phone and throw your mail away.  Try talking to them to work out some kind of payment plan.  If your credit score goes down because of a collection, it can increase payments on all of your other bills. (I don't need this since I have no credit cards nor will I pay my things via credits)

Make yourself stand out at work to prevent being a casualty of a layoff.  Show your employer they cannot run their company without you. this is because most company will cut off "fats" in the company. why paying for someone who's mot worth paying right? But for me, I will have to think on how to increase my value since I am currently a student so to secure me a job in the near future.

Settle all you loan and credits!!! As soon as possible, because all loan interests are going up during the though time (it's decreased now because they (bankers) are trying to draw people to take loans). make sure you don't owe the bank anything!

Next, investments! now, all your investments is a good time to sell them all off now I suppose. According to the economic status now, all stocks are going to drop drastically so, to prevent from loosing anymore money, it's time to take back your money now before you lose even more!!!

 

Most of these tips are obvious, but a lot of people wait to implement them until it is too late.  If used as a preventative measure, it is possible that you can survive and even thrive in a tough economy.

 

well, that's almost about it... hope it helps...

those how have anything to add, be free to do so...

thankz!

till then~ off I go!~

ill treated

well, I believe many people had been treated poorly before be it in shopping malls, or by friends...

I am sure everyone has experienced it before, right?

 

well, lets start with being badly treated in malls or places you need services:

 

what I dislike most about the shopping malls are the either treating you too well, or too badly...

 

well, I can assume you all are thinking "treating you good also kena?!"

well... you can usually see thing in places like sungie wang where the sales assistant will keep an watchful eye on you afraid that you might just shop lift... not only that, the follow you so close that sometimes you can just bang into them if you were to turn around!!!

I dislike it, I know it's their job to assist you in your purchase in that store but isn't that overdoing it?!

 

now, "overdoing" aside, lets talk about the other side...

when you need assistance, the sales assistant isn't there to help you out... and you will have to wait for a period too long which will eventually ptotng stim destroy your mood to shop especially for people who has less patient like me...

 

and the WORST part,

sales assistant that look at your appearance to see weather you are worth assistance or not...

it's sad because there are actually such sales person!

there are a few times where I went shopping with my 3 quarter pants and slipper instead of my jeans and shoe, the sales assistant look at me with a can-you-afford-this-thing look with a very discriminating tone on her voice!!! (this thing isn't really expensive) it really pisses me off, well, of course I walked out and swear never to go back to that shop again!!!

 

 

some other experience:

case 1:

it was before Chinese New Year while I went shopping for cloths in Sungei Wang. I saw a really attractive clothes and decided that I would like to have a try, it comes in black, white and pink color. since it is CNY, so no black, and I have ENOUGH pink in my closet (3 pinks consider??) so, I wanted white...

the sales girl ask me to try on the black one first and will give me the white one as she went searching for it. so, no harm if I try on the black one first right? it looks rather good ad when I ask to try the white one instead, she don't allow me to try! reason is simple, they scared I dirty the clothes. for me, if I were to get myself a clothes, I must try before I buy everything matters from size to color. because I have learnt a lesson that some cloths can look good on the manikins but not on me.

and since she don't allow me to try after a long long plead (yes I plead her for me to try on the white color clothes) and she still don't let me. being the usual me, I just walk off and swear never to go back to the shop again. some of my friends with me saw what happened and still I think it served them right!

 

well there is only 1 case sample I provide, if not this post is gonna be really really REALLY long @__@

 

 

now talk about being poorly treated by people around you especially friends:

let me tell you something, if you have a friend or a group of firendS who are treating you the way that you do not deserve, they are NOT YOUR FRIEND!!!

friends are supposed to help you out, to be there for you...

NOT to ask you to continuously completing task for them and fool you around like a puppet!!! if you are with that kinda people, trust me, you will be better off without them!!!

I know this very well because I am once like that, one might fall into this position is mostly because of their physical appearance: too fat, too short, or somehow too ugly. they will try their best to join in a group which is usually discriminating them hence leads to bullying and ill treating a person...

to these kinds of people, there are many people out there who will treat you way better, those who ill treat you like that are not worth being your friends and you are not worth for them to throw you around like a puppet!

ask them to fuck off!

 

 

 

well, I think I have said enough, and I shall rest my case here...

anyone has anything to add? kindly comment ^^

my 8 unique style

well, yea, this post will mainly be talking about my style...

both good and bad depending on individuals,

because some people see a personality as a good sign while some see it differently...

 

I shall start~

 

I would not force myself do things that I don't like

why would someone want to do things that they don't like? unless things that really benefits me, I will do. I have over the days learned to say no to some pleadings from my friend to help out on curricular activities (clubs, society, etc.)

some had really shown faces and attitude towards me, but what can I do? it's them who control their thoughts, not me.

 

 

once I made a decision, it's decided.

in other words, I am stubborn. pretty darn freakingly extremely stubborn!

once I decided on something, I don't often change my mind anymore...

the only reason I change my mind would be someone who has the power to influence my change by providing reasonable reasons and solutions which is better than my decision and I shall accept defeat.

 

 

I don't say sorry to a matter for more than 5 times (on minute matter)

yes! I don't!

if a person is willing to forgive you, he / she will forgive you once you say sorry for 2-3 times...

for me, I only accept one's apology once the person said "sorry", this depends on what matter it applies to.

to me, 5 times is the max amount of times I will say sorry to someone a particular matter, people who know me well will know that...

the above is for small problems, but if it is a REALLY big problem, I wouldn't apologize straight away, I would wait for at least a day or two before I apologize because I wanted time for the person and me to think over and cool down so that things can be settled clearly after that.

 

 

I shoot with M16

M16 literally means my mouth...

I am a very direct person, talking straight forward, no hidden weapons and stuffs... (alot of people agree)

if a thing is good, I will say it's good... if it's bad, get ready for me to blast your friggin ass away!

to me, I think I should let people know clearly what I am thinking and by speaking what I really think is the best way to express my thoughts and feelings on certain topic.

I made people cry with my mouth before... it's not a thing to be proud of, but just for you people to know how bad it can be...

and I haven't been really shooting for quite awhile, later people will run away from me...

 

 

you think I am innocent? think AGIAN

I do look innocent, but mentally I am not...

I always look playful and childish, but there are many things I knew of about life that I did not voice out...

I like to sit aside sometimes to look at how people interact and behave, predict what would happen to a person if he / she know about something...

looking at how people interact, how the portray themselves, looking at their personality...

by looking and noting down all those things I can actually know them better...

it can help me to look for a more effective way of communicating and interact with them...

to me, human behavior is a very special thing to learn about...

 

 

I make friends, not enemies

it's very natural the you will like someone more and dislike someone on the other side... it applies to me as well...

having an extra friend is anyhow better than having an enemies

but what I do instead was to make friends with those whom I like making friends with and still make room for those who I don't really like...

if those that I don't like really wants to find fault with me, I have no choice but just to ignore...

if things really get out of hand, you will know how evil I am...

people have seen it, I hope it won't happen again...

 

 

rational

most praises that I receive from people is that I am a very rational thinker...

is it because I always think? thinking too much?

no, I only think of 3 things when a problem arises :

-  cause of what has happened.

- effect of the problem.

- steps need to be taken to solve the problem to be able to satisfy most amount of people

 

well, not to praise myself...

because of my rational thinking and observing personality skills, my prediction on an issue relating to certain peoples does often come true...

 

 

I learn from others

you don't have to learn everything by first hand because something's just too expensive to be learned.

that's what my mum told me right from the start! and it is pretty true!

I have been observing people's mistakes and take it as my own lesson, this has saved me from alot alot of short comings, I am more prepared than many other people who are facing the same sticky situation as I am.

be it love relationships (I learn by observing my friends) or problem solving (some skills I obtained from my mum herself), it all can be learned second hand! and you don't have to lose a thing!

I used to think things don't work this way, but somehow it does!

midnight emo

the sudden feeling of loneliness struck me,

sitting alone in the living hall, at 2 am...

listening my playlist full of slow songs, emo music, and some jazz tunes....

wondering why this feeling strikes...

 

why?

is it because I miss my fun filled days in KL?

is it because I miss my parents already?

is it because I miss my friends? (it's been a month since we last met)

 

*playing the song lucky by jason mras and colbie caillat again and again*

it just suits my mood now...

 

lucky?

yea, I am really lucky...

lucky to be born in this small, warm loving family of mine...

lucky to be able to do the things I like...

lucky to be able to have such wonderful friends...

lucky to have been where I have been...

lucky to be coming home again...

 

 

I so wanna go to the seaside now...

listen to the sound of the wave which never to fail to take away my doubts

feel the sea breeze blowing away my emo-ness

play with the sand, reminding me how innocent I was

walk along the beach with my naked feet with my best friend, chattering away...

 

 

*I let the music fill the air and drown me*

*still re-playing the same song over and over again*

my 5 guilty pleasures

well, there are many pleasures that comes with guilt in every indulgence we give ourselves...

it's like a ginny making your wish come true, but want something in return...

 

well, same goes to me...

there are so many pleasures that I enjoy but without not giving me some side effects...

 

1. food

not only food,, GOOD FOOD!!!

I love tasting nice food, new food, special food...

I had tried spending a day in Mid Valley with 2 friend of mine just to wonder there for food!!!

lets see, we wonder around for about 8 hours, and we had 5 meals!!!

 

why guilty?

extra weight and extra holes on my pocket

 

 

2. movie

why is watching movie a guilt for me?

coz I always prefer to go to the cinemas to watch movie...

I prefer it because they have better sound effect and large screen...

and all this come to money...

another hole in my pocket

 

 

3. talking

wow!!

talking also guilty?!

ya... sometime i talk too much that it turned out to be crap,

crap will soon become jokes...

and my jokes are too powerful sometimes...

so, I may hurt others...

so, guilty lor...

 

4. sex

not that I have had sex before but who doesn't like having sex?

well, legally, it's ok...

Biotechnology

well, I am sure most people who read my blog here know better than me on what is biotechnology I suppose...

since I am taking my degree in Biotechnology, my readers which are also my course mates (mostly of my readers are...)

biotech is the manipulation of life (organisms) using the current advanced technology...

 

well, yea...

this issue has also raised alot of debate about how humans can "challenge god's will"

people say, god made life, so, who are we to change the life into something that is not?

 

to me, I think it's not a total bad thing at all...

there are so many contributions of biotech in the surface of the earth that we sometimes don't even notice...

 

being a biotech student, I am rather ashamed when a doctor told me that needle and syringe are considered a tool developed under the field of biotechnology. and the reaction I gave him is a big fat "huh"

ok, shuddup...

 

that's just a basic thing about biotechnology...

well, I have just finished my year 2 semester 1 of my course, and in this semester, there is a subject entitled "Principles of Biotechnology"

yes, I am in year 2 and I am only studying the principles...

 

in this subject, we have to get used to all the terms of biotechnology and have the chance to use SOME biotech tools made available in the school lab...

by SOME, I mean really SOME (see how I emphasis the word SOME?)

we only get to SEE our lab assistant preparing the PCR (polymerase chain reaction) machine while attending the lab session...

 

but still I though it was fun knowing that I am able to do such things in the near future...

we have learned how to insert a gene of interest into a plasmid and placing it into a bacteria to be cultured producing the product we want.

an example:

in the early days, pancreas (insulin production organ) of cows and horses are used clinically to treat diabetic patients since it's nearly chemical identical to human's insulin... but these insulin are not all pure enough due to the presence of non-insulin substances which leads to allergy.

but now, with the recombinant technology, human gene which express for insulin can be extracted and inserted into a plasmid which is transferred into a bacteria cell which is cultured and allowing it to reproduce and at the same time producing insulin (the product we want).

this method of producing insulin is safer for use since it reduces the amount of impurities and it can also undergo mass production which saves cost and time.

 

many other drugs and enzymes are produced with this method (recombinant technology) because of some of it's advantages which saves time and money.

 

 

that is why, to me, biotechnology is not all bad and has it's good side to think off as well...

 

my thought : can we produce an organism which can help decrease the effects of global warming by reducing global warming?

some points:

-put in photosynthetic properties into the organism

-an organism that require alot of heat to undergo metabolism (absorb heat from environment to produce cooling effect)

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

do you think if we are able to identify the "recovering" gene in our body, can we enhance our body's recovery process from wounds?

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

can we actually find ways to somehow enhance our senses? allowing us to do more than what we can? teleportation, mind reading, super strength.

ok, I am starting to sound like Mohinder Suresh @___@

but I somehow believe, all these can happen via genetic modification...

gene is the key to human behavior, physically and mentally...

believe it or not?

Starbucks Saturday!

welli broke my personal record today!!!

I woke up at 1130AM!!!

WOAH!!!

well, I slept at 4am last night, that's why...

 

few days ago, my aunt called us saying that she'll bring us (my sis and I) on Sunday...

and my sis woke me up today saying that "kor!! wake up, aunt is here!!!"

the first thing I think about was "did I just slept my Saturday away?!"

and thank god... no I didn't sleep my Saturday away.... *phew*

 

anyway, aunt bought us bak kut teh~~~

DSC04239

swirl it smoothly until all coffee powder is dissolved

 

DSC04240

then, pour the soy milk into another cup until it's almost full (remember to leave space for your coffee)

 

DSC04243

then last of all, pour in the coffee...

 

then, it's ready to drink~

 

 

this is a cold beverage....

it still needs some perfection before it can be really drank...

but it's considered ok...

but not really good...

DSC04293

Nigel and I~ (he's trying to act cute)

 

 

well, that's all for now~

chiao!~

sidetrack

well, I'll talk about relationship in this post today....

okok, most of you might find it funny in disbelief that I actually am writing about relationships...

 

let's talk about 2 individuals (boy and girl)

 

girls, (since I am a boy, so I shall write this from a guy's point of view)

I am sure most of you all want to know what a guy wants from a relationship right?

well, to be honest...

I can't give a precise answer to you all as well,

since all guys have different point of view of what is a relationship...

it's hard to tell...

 

is it affection? attention? time? understanding? accompaniment? money? sex?

 

to me, understanding is most important,

once you understand each other, you will somehow know what your partner is thinking, thus, the answer to the above question will be easily answered..

 

to be honest, what a boy want will be to have an understanding girlfriend

a girl who understands him,

know what he want's and what he needs...

 

and most of the time, a guy wants to be able to be there for his girl, to be able to protect her...

to be able to make her smile, seeing his girl smile means more than the world...

and most of all, to be able to share his ups and downs with her

(for me, I think long time before I can experience these feelings since I still wanna travel across the 5 continents and the 7 seas)

 

 

well, I was once naive and once thought that sex has nothing to do with love, but I was wrong perhaps?

not that it's an important part, but sex plays a petite role, but may also be a crucial role in a relationship...

many may disagree, but it's true...

 

 

and in pattorlogy, the keywords would be trust, honesty, and to give and take

you must be able to trust each other, and in order to do so, you all must be honest at the first place...

and, bare in mind that no one in this world is perfect, it's hard enough to find a person who you love and whom love you back. Give and take, forgive your partner's mistakes and accept him or her for who he or she is...

DSC04284

the fry together with cucur, and it reminds me who much I liked it while i was young!!! (I even curi from my cousin's pack of mee goreng)

tasted like before!~~ still good!!!

 

 

and this

DSC04287

nasi goreng kampung (since I am in a kampung)

decided to try something different since I always had mee goreng whenever I go makan there...

the fried rice is nice, but the anchovies are not crispy enough and are kinda hard to chew...

 

and the bill came!!!~

SO CHEAP!!!! this puls 5 pieces of pisang goreng for only LESS THAN RM9!!!

 

food's good but later, both my sis's and my stomach acted weirdly...

you asked if it's worth it?

I say no...
