LIFE

Life
It is miracle that when a sperm fertilize with an ovum in the Fallopian tube , repeated mitotic division occurs to produce a solid ball of cell called morula , further mitosis converted this into a hollow ball of cell called blastocyst that embeds itself in the thickened wall of the uterus, the blastocyst will soon become an embryo, foetus and being born as a baby. How miracle it is the way I was created , so as you.


When I was a child , I lived a carefree life and being able to play hide and seek with my brothers ,sisters ,cousins and even friends ,chasing each other down the field happily ,no worries ,no stress and in fact there is nothing that bothers my mind. However, when I reached puberty ,pressure, tension ,worries ,suddenly streaming down my head , especially during my secondary school life. The only thing that I really yearn for is FREEDOM as I am under 24hours control of my parents , I am not allowed to go out with my friends and even if I got the green light from my parents they would track me down and following me as the headlines of the news like “Two girls being raped “, “A teenage girl being robbed”, “MURDER” reminds my parents to be aware of the people beyond my house that might put my life into danger. The worst thing is that I am not allowed to own my cell phone ,and even can’t attend my friend’s birthday parties.


My life routine in my school life is monotonous and almost did the same thing every day , going to school every morning ,attending co -curricular activities every evening, followed by having tuition classes EVERY SINGLE DAY (9 tuition classes in a WEEK! Can you imagine that?) and I had my dinner at 11pm after coming back from tuition centre which is kind of bored and make me tedious .This is when the stress start to haunt me when I was in Form 2.With all my time spend on studying, on duty in the libraries , attending all sorts of seminars and camps , I had no time to hang out with my friends and even if I do I had to beg from my parents to let me out. I argued with my parents in order to let me out, however it always doesn’t work and it ends up that I would bang the door as hard as I could and threw the trophies that I received and cried with my blankets covering me. I yearn for freedom but I failed to get it and I give up after lots of attempts negotiating with my parents because I am tired with negotiating so I tried a different way, a more different way, one day ,I skipped tuition classes and decided to hang out with my friends ,but unfortunately being caught by my daddy in the same shopping complex that we went! Why so unlucky? And what’s more I am being scolded by my dad and fetch me back to continue my tuition lessons. He advised me that I should concentrate in my study and lecture me for two hours till 3am .After the lecture , I realize that my parents love me so much that they become over-protective on me, and from that days onwards I continued my routine and study hard. I believe that without them , I will not be studying in KBU international college taking the AUSMAT course. I really appreciate what they did for me and I love them very much too.

Bowling For Columbine

Walking down the stair with my mind full of catastrophic and shocking massarce scenes and the song of Louis Armstrong-"What A Wonderful World" that make me think of the EVIL sides of the world, this is what stay vivid in my mind after watching the documentary"Bowling For Columbine" in LT6. My tears dripping down drop by drop without my notice while I am watching the scene which U.S attacked other countries and millions of innocent people being killed in just a few seconds;30,000 Nicaraguans die in a war (1981), 4 million people in Southeast Asia killed by America military (1963-1975),American planes bomb Iraq on a WEEKLY basis,500,000 Iraqi children die from bombing and sanctions. Just by looking at the statistics given is already enough to show how evil ,ferocious, barbarous, bloodthirsty, inhumane, hellish some "PARTIES " are. They kill people like killing mosquitoes. Hey presto! How could they kill human on weekly basis?!!!!!! Did you hear that WEEKLY! How pathetic they are. Is money , status , power more important than human precious life? Why couldnt they negotiate with each other just like the Canadians did? Maybe , for them , weapons are the most powerful thing to defend their country in order to stay at "NO 1" in the world. FOR WHAT ? Is that worthwhile to take MILLIONS of people life , in return to get something they yearn for? How could they take other people's life so simply ?!!!!!! Did they really know what the feeling is when you lost your loved one?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Premarital Sex

I have been thinking of what should I write for this week's study log for hours , and finally I choose to write about the difficulties that I had encountered when my group members and I film for our documentary about "Premarital Sex" .We choose this topic because it is interesting and all of us espacially teenagers are curious of having "copulation" (quoted from Mr Derick) before marry. So, are u against or agree with premarital sex? Or are you already have sex with your partner?

Without any further ado, so let me tell you the reaction and response of the interviewee. First, Beng, hazman , Sabri and me went to 1 Utama to find our targeted people . I finally realize how difficult and how desperate it is to find someone who are willing to give their own opinions about this sensitive topic.Remember, "you can't judge a book by its cover " and this is one of the values that I had learned while making this documentary. I had made a terrible mistake in the way I interview people, for inatance in my first attempt of interviewing an elderly man ,in his 80's with wrinkles all aroung his face , I encountered him and introduce myself and mention the topic that we want to interview him; as I opened my mouth and said is about premarital sex , he answered ," I am too old to answer this question." What ? This is so ridiculous and what's wrong for an elderly people to give some opinion about this topic as we need senior citizens' perceptions.However , I respect his right to reject , so I just smiled at him and left. Nevertheless, I found teenegers are more easy to handle as most of them are willing to share with us .It really take us aboutfive hours just to interview a few of them and I admitted some of them are quite hard to handle, now only that I realized how tidious a reporter is.


After interviewing the public, I found some of the assessment that they gave really amazed me, surprise me, annoyed me and satisfied with the answer. Besides , one of the advantages of doing this documentory project is that I had learned to use the video -cam (Hazman - the rich guy provided video -cam )in the most effective way, it is really challenging of how to get the best shot in different angles that are able to give you different sensation when you view it , and I adore Sabri who really had the talent in doing it.

I believe that each and everyone of you also enjoyed making documentary ? As for me , I had learn many things in carrying out this project because I din't do any documentory in my previous school life.


The most interesting part of the documentory is that we ..........................................................

Happy Valentine's Day


Valentine's Day is just around the corner,do you celebrate Valentine's with your love ones? Or you will just celebrate it as an ordinary day? In the West,it is the traditional day which lovers express their love with each other by sending greeting cards, chocolates, flowers, or offering confectionery. This special day originates from the story of Saint Valentine, who upon rejections by his mistress was so heartbroken that he took a knife to his chest and send her his still-beating heart as a token of his undying heart for her. Someone even commit suicide because of love as LOVE IS BLIND.


Do you ever wonder how people from other countries celebrate Valentine's Day? In Denmark and Norway, Valentine's Day is known as Valentinsdag . A lot of people celebrate this special day by having a romantic dinner with their love ones or sending roses and cards for their beloved. In Finland, Valentine's Day is called 'Friend's Day' ,as the name indicates, this day is more about remembering your friends rather than loved ones.In Slovenia, a proverb says that 'St Valentine brings the key of roots' so on 14th February , the plants and flowers start to grow. It is also said that birds propose to each other and married on that day (ridiculous). Valentine's Day is called Sevgililer Gunu in Turkey, which translates into 'Sweethearts' Day '.
Valentine's Day seemed to be romantic and lovely, why not make it a bit lively and funny.
Here are some of the jokes about husbands and wives that will make you enjot thoroughly.
Her husband had been slipping in and out of a coma for several months yet she stayed by his bedside every single day. When he came to, he motioned for her to come nearer. As she sat by him, he said, "You know what? You have been with me all through the bad times. When I got fired, you were there to support me. When my business
fell, you were there. When I got shot, you were by my side. When we lost the house, you gave me support. When my health started failing, you were still by my side. When I think about it now. ....I think you bring me bad luck!"

Boring husband: Honey, why are you wearing your wedding ring on the wrong finger?
Bored wife: Because I married the wrong man!


A couple came upon a wishing well. The wife leaned over, made a wish and threw in a penny. The husband decided to make a wish, too But he leaned over too much, fell into the well, and drowned. The wife was stunned for a moment but then smiled, "It really works!"

A successful man is one who makes more money
than his wife can spend.A successful woman is one who can find such a man.

When a newly married couple smiles, everyone knows why.When a ten-year married couple smiles, everyone wonders why.


Why government does not allow a Man to Marry 2 Women. Because per Constitution, you can NOT PUNISH TWICE for the same Mistake.


I miss you terribly this day of love,
Miss you with a wound that stabs and aches.
I see the love around me, and it takes
So much strength simply just to move.
Soon, soon, my love, this waiting will be done.
You and I will have what we desire.
On days like this we'll sit beside the fire,
Undoing all the pain of days long gone.
As for me, we must appreciate every moment we have with our loved ones especially our parents because of them, we are born to this world , because of them , we know what is love , and without them I won't be sitting here writing this blog.
