BBQ Chicken
Hari ni lunch kat BBQ Chicken, Jusco AU2. Dari minggu lepas mengidam BBQ Chicken ni. Kebetulan hari ni dapat gaji, ajak Dayah gi makan sini. Dayah makan Korean Charboiled, aku lak makan Fish Cutlet. Selalunya, kalau makan kat sini memang tak pernah habis. Kali ni ikan tu suma habis tapi fries lak yang tak habis. Air lak aku amik Ais Latte. Aku memang suka makan kat BBQ Chicken. Suasana best, service pun not bad, background music (of course lagu2 korean, ni kan restoren korean) memang best. Officemate aku minta tapaukan Boneless Grilled Chicken Burger ngan Chicken Tortilla. Price makanan, std ah.... Suma sekali termasuk yang tapau tu dlm RM 75.60.

In class....
There are so many things that I need to do. My assignments need to be submit early April. The list of my assignments:
- legal issues of forest management in Malaysia
- adaptation of flora & fauna in mangrove forest
- ecology of ex-mining pond
- ISO documentation
- impact of waste management to water quality of Johor river
- policy paper on human population.
Just thinking about these making me dizzy. Now, I'm at class (Environment: theory, system & concept). Now we're taking 30 min break. Before break, we were discussing the loss and extincting of biodiversity. After break, i think we are going to discuss on the carrying capacity and environmental problem. It's quite interesting class because we were discussing the timeline and global awareness of the environmental problem. Class will be finish at 9 pm and I'm going back by lrt. Another tiring day for me.

Earth Hour
For the first time in history, people of all ages, nationalities, race and background have the opportunity to use their light switch as their vote – Switching off your lights is a vote for Earth, or leaving them on is a vote for global warming. WWF are urging the world to VOTE EARTH and reach the target of 1 billion votes, which will be presented to world leaders at the Global Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen 2009.
This meeting will determine official government policies to take action against global warming, which will replace the Kyoto Protocol. It is the chance for the people of the world to make their voice heard.Earth Hour began in Sydney in 2007, when 2.2 million homes and businesses switched off their lights for one hour. In 2008 the message had grown into a global sustainability movement, with 50 million people switching off their lights. Global landmarks such as the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, Rome’s Colosseum, the Sydney Opera House and the Coca Cola billboard in Times Square all stood in darkness.In 2009, Earth Hour is being taken to the next level, with the goal of 1 billion people switching off their lights as part of a global vote. Unlike any election in history, it is not about what country you’re from, but instead, what planet you’re from. VOTE EARTH is a global call to action for every individual, every business, and every community. A call to stand up and take control over the future of our planet. Over 74 countries and territories have pledged their support to VOTE EARTH during Earth Hour 2009, and this number is growing everyday.We all have a vote, and every single vote counts. Together we can take control of the future of our planet, for future generations.

Why do we read Al-Quran
Why do we read Quran, even if we can't understand a single Arabic word? This is beautiful story, please read till end and forward to all you knows...
An old American Muslim lived on a farm in the mountains of eastern Kentucky with his young grandson. Each morning Grandpa was up early sitting at the kitchen table reading his Qur'an. His grandson wanted to be just like him and tried to imitate him in every way he could.
One day the grandson asked, "Grandpa! I try to read the Qur'an just like you but I don't understand it, and what I do understand I forget as soon as I close the book. What good does reading the Qur'an do?" The Grandfather quietly turned from putting coal in the stove and replied, "Take this coal basket down to the river and bring me back a basket of water." The boy did as he was told, but all the water leaked out before he got back to the house. The grandfather laughed and said, "You'll have to move a little faster next time," He sent him back to the river with the basket to try again. This time the boy ran faster, but again the basket was empty before he returned home. Out of breath, he told his grandfather that it was impossible to carry water in a basket, and he went to get a bucket instead. The old man said,"I don't want a bucket of water; I want a basket of water. You're just not trying hard enough," He went out the door to watch the boy try again.
At this point, the boy knew it was impossible, but he wanted to show his grandfather that even if he ran as fast as he could, the water would Leak out before he got back to the house. The boy again dipped the basket into river and ran hard, but when he reached his grandfather the basket was again empty.Out of breath, he said, "See Grandpa, it's useless!" "So you think it is useless?" The old man said,"Look at the basket." The boy looked at the basket and for the first time realized that the basket was different. It had been transformed from a dirty old coal basket and was now clean, inside and out."Son, that's what happens when you read the Qur'an.
You might not understand or remember everything, but when you read it, you will be changed, inside and outside. That is the work of Allah in our lives.
"Moral of the story : Read Al-Quran frequently as it will purify our heart. When we have pure heart, it is easy to do righteous and leave jahiliyah and badness in ourselves.

3D 2N
I'm going for a trip which I'm completely clueless. Prof keep changing his mind about the places we are going. Last week he say different place, this week different place and no detail of the actual place. All I know, today, we are going to Hulu Selangor and tomorrow to a forest in Perak and no clue on our plan for sunday. Also not sure where we are going to sleep. A very clueless trip for us. Prof doesn' give any details on that. Well, I just hope it will be fun.....and also a report on the trip to be submit....!!!!

Suka atau cinta
2- Di hadapan orang yang kita cinta, musim sentiasa berbunga-bunga. Di depan orang yang kita suka,musim itu cuma berangin sahaja.
3- Jikalau kita lihat di dalam mata orang yang kita cinta, kita akan kaku. Tapi jika kita melihat ke dalam mata orang yang kita suka, kita akan tersenyum.
4- Di depan orang yang kita cinta, kita menjadi malu. Di depan orang yg kita suka, kita akan tunjukkan imej yang sebenar.
5- Di depan orang yang kita cinta, lidah kelu untuk berkata-kata. Di depan orang yang kita suka, kita akan bebas berkata apa saja.
6- Kita tidak akan merenung mata orang yang kita cinta. Tapi kita akan selalu merenung mata orang yang kita suka.
7- Bila orang yang kita cinta menangis, kita akan turut jua menangis. Bila orang yang kita suka menangis, kita akan cuba untuk membuat dia gembira.
8- Perasaan cinta bermula dari kata. Perasaan suka bermula dari telinga. Jadi, jikalau kita berhenti menyukai seseorang yang kita suka umpama kita membuang telinga kita. Tapi jika cuba menutup mata cinta berbuah menjadi airmata. Setiap orang yang hidup akan mengalami ini dalam hidup mereka.
Renung2kanlah.......

Last Night
Well, last night presentation was suck....!!! I was frustrated and also a bit pissed off by one particular member (Mr C) in my group. We didn't hv enough data so we just went through with what we hv but it backfired at us. My group was the last group to present and Prof. was already in bad mood coz in average all groups' presentation didn't go well. We only hv 15 min to make presentation and Mr C used most of the time for his part. Just when I got started, time's up so no mark for that part. I spoke quite fast and stumbled over my own word. When I think about it, time's up already, no need for me to race to finish the slide. Huhuhuhu.......silly me. We hv about a month until final presentation and tonnes of work need to be done.

Tell-tale Signs that It’s Love, Love, Love
You’ve got butterflies, good conversation, maybe even great sex, but sometimes it can be difficult to be sure if it’s love. How do you decipher whether the feeling in the pit of your stomach is the nervous quivering of anticipation or yesterday's lunch? Luckily, Lovingyou.com knows that “fools in love” are easy to spot. Here are some tell-tale signs that it just be might be love, love, love.
You are best friends. You laugh with them more than anyone else. The feelings of anticipation, passion, and connection are mutual. You remember little things about each other like their favorite foods, the places they want to visit and why, their views on everything from politics to fashion, and what they love about their closest buddies, but is it enough? Take a look at these signs to be sure.
What he’ll do:
Put you on his “A” list (pay attention -- You'll know if you're not on it)
Introduce you to his family
Make plans for the future (near and far)
Do things outside of his “box” with you
Share his secrets and his dreams for the future with you
Worry about impressing your friends
Come right over when you ask him to
Try to do things that comfort you or relieve some of your stress (like surprise you with dinner on a night you are working, rub your feet, or ask about your day)
Appreciate and reciprocate your feelings and your actions like giving you a massage after he gets one from you, doing the dishes after dinner, or sending you a gift
What she’ll do:
Share her embarrassing moments and fantasies with you
Little things all throughout the day that let you know she’s thinking about you
Fantasize about her life with you, getting married, having kids, growing old, traveling the world, etc.
Tease you
Hang out with your mother or talk to her on the phone
Appreciate and reciprocate your feelings and your actions, like offering to pay for dinner, getting tickets to a game or event she knows you’ll love, or cooking for you
Ask questions about your life -- past, present, and future
Flirt with you
How you’ll feel:
Excited, yet relaxed
Vulnerable, yet strong
Comfortable enough to be yourself in front of them
Like you want to include them in everything (but you won't desert your usual crowd to be in a relationship with them)
You’ll miss them when they’re not around
You can’t wait to see them, talk to them, play with them, and kiss them
You’ll find yourself wanting to make plans to have them all to yourself
You’ll have urges to do romantic things (maybe on the verge of stalker-like things) that you never thought you’d never do
Signs that it’s not love:
They blow you off or cancel dates
Talking about commitment makes either of you uneasy or nervous
Either of you are seeing other people
Things are moving too quickly for one of you
You find your partner lacking when compared to other people
You watch a love scene in a movie or hear a love song and you feel a strong longing or desire for what you don’t have
Tips before you commit:
Take the time to compare who you have with who you know deep down that you desire and deserve. Likewise, compare the relationship you have with the one you know you really want.
Pay attention to how they treat their friends, family, business associates, and strangers. This is a good indication of how they will treat you over time and a big insight into their overall character.
Ask yourself how well you know them and how well they know you.

A Silent Love
While surfing the net, i found this very interesting love story. A very touching story and i cried in the end (silently). If all men can be this faithfull and accept someone unconditionally.........This short story called 'A Silent Love'. Alongside with my fave song, Love Story by Taylor Swift.
A Silent Love
From the very Begining, the girl's family objected strongly on her dating this guy. Saying that it has got to do with family background & that the girl will have to suffer for the rest of her life if she were to be with him.Due to family's pressure, the couple quarrel very often. Though the girl love the guy deeply, but she always ask him: "How deep is your love for me?"As the guy is not good with his words, this often cause the girl to be very upset. With that & the family's pressure, the girl often vent her anger on him. As for him, he only endure it in silence.
After a couple of years, the guy finally graduated & decided to further his studies in overseas. Before leaving, he proposed to the girl: "I'm not very good with words. But all I know is that I love you. If you allow me, I will take care of you for the rest of my life. As for your family, I'll try my best to talk them round. Will you marry me?"The girl agreed, & with the guy's determination, the family finally gave in & agreed to let them get married. So before he leave, they got engaged.The girl went out to the working society, whereas the guy was overseas, continuing his studies. They sent their love through emails & phone calls. Though it's hard, but both never thought of giving up.
One day, while the girl was on her way to work, she was knocked down by a car that lost control. When she woke up, she saw her parents beside her bed. She realised that she was badly injured. Seeing her mum crying, she wanted to comfort her. But she realized that all that could come out of her mouth was just a sigh. She has lost her voice......The doctors says that the impact on her brain has caused her to lose her voice. Listening to her parents' comfort, but with nothing coming out from her, she broke down.During the stay in hospital, besides silence cry,.....it's still just silence cry that companied her.
Upon reaching home, everything seems to be the same. Except for the ringing tone of the phone. Which pierced into her heart everytime it rang. She does not wish to let the guy know. & not wanting to be a burden to him, she wrote a letter to him saying that she does not wish to wait any longer.With that, she sent the ring back to him. In return, the guy sent millions & millions of reply, and countless of phonecalls,.. all the girl could do, besides crying, is still crying....The parents decided to move away, hoping that she could eventually forget everything & be happy.
With a new environment, the girl learn sign language & started a new life. Telling herself everyday that she must forget the guy. One day, her friend came & told her that he's back. She asked her friend not to let him know what happened to her. Since then, there wasn't anymore news of him.
A year has passed & her friend came with an envelope, containing an invitation card for the guy's wedding. The girl was shattered. When she open the letter, she saw her name in it instead.When she was about to ask her friend what's going on, she saw the guy standing in front of her. He used sign language telling her "I've spent a year's time to learn sign language. Just to let you know that I've not forgotten our promise. Let me have the chance to be your voice. I Love You. With that, he slipped the ring back into her finger. The girl finally smiled.
