Bulky

over the past 4 weeks of attending marketing class, i don't seem to be able to get what the lecturer is trying to teach. maybe because i'm not interested in sales or marketing.

marketing principles is the most boring and bulkiest subject that i have studied so far for the semester. the luckiests thing in the situation is that i'm not majoring in marketing if not you will see me trying to commit suicide. really admired those taking marketing as a major!

guess the best of it is that it is assignment based and not exam based.=) though it is assignment, i'm also having difficulty in trying to start and get over the assignment as everytime i open the notes to read either i fall asleep or i tend to do something else just not to read it.

what a blast!

Way Back Into Love

by Hugh Grant & Haley Bennett



I've been living with a shadow overhead
I've been sleeping with a cloud above my bed
I've been lonely for so long
Trapped in the past, I just can't seem to move on

I've been hiding all my hopes and dreams away
Just in case I ever need them again someday
I've been setting aside time
To clear a little space in the corners of my mind

All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love
Oh oh oh

I've been watching but the stars refuse to shine
I've been searching but I just don't see the signs
I know that it's out there
There's got to be something for my soul somewhere

I've been looking for someone to shed some light
Not somebody just to get me through the night

I could use some direction
And I'm open to your suggestions

All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love
And if I open my heart again
I guess I'm hoping you'll be there for me in the end
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

There are moments when I don't know if it's real
Or if anybody feels the way I feel
I need inspiration
Not just another negotiation

All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can't make it through without a way back into love
And if I open my heart to you
I'm hoping you'll show me what to do
And if you help me to start again
You know that I'll be there for you in the end
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Hang out

Have a splendid 15 minutes walk from the shop to Prangin Mall to meet Seetal for the second time for lunch and a movie. Feeling relax after some time staying indoor.

Reach the mall at the same time with Seetal who come by bus. Since we were planning to watch a movie, we go to Cathay Cineplex to buy our tickets for the 3.20pm Kung Fu Panda movie. =)

As there is still plenty of time before the movie, we went for lunch at a cafe. I order a set of black pepper chicken chop which include a drink, mushroom soup, a plate of fruits and ice cream while Seetal order a plate of herbal jelly with longan on top.

Mushroom soup

Ice lemon tea

Black pepper chicken chop with fries and potato salads

Seetal herbal jelly with longans

Movie ends at 5pm which i find the animation very hilarious especially the part where the Shifu trained Po using foods as bait for learning kung fu! Since we were not rushing to go home, we have a little snack at McDonalds with me having chicken nuggets and Coke while Seetal have sundae chocolate. Our chit chatting last for an hour where we finally depart for the journey home at 6.15pm with a photo together.

In our hands

To raise awareness and promote action on national environment issues, World Environment Day is celebrated on June 5 each year and this year’s theme is "Kick The Habit: Towards A Low-Carbon Economy".

It highlights resources and initiatives that promote low-carbon economies and lifestyles, such as improved energy efficiency, alternative energy sources, forest conservation, tree planting, and eco-friendly consumption.

Do You Know?

1. For every kilogram of waste you throw out, you produce 1kg of carbon dioxide. You can cut this figure by 30% if you recycle all paper, glass, metal and plastic.

2. Over 46,000 pieces of plastic litter - including bits of packaging, cigarette lighters, plastic bags and diapers are floating on every square mile (2.6sq km) of the oceans.

3. The energy saved from recycling one glass bottle will power a 100W light bulb for almost an hour, a computer for 20 minutes, a television for 15 minutes and a washing machine for 10 minutes.

4. The global atmosphere has warmed 0.74 Celsius over the past century. Temperatures will climb 0.2 Celsius per decade for the next 20 years. If the hikes exceed 1.5 to 2.5 Celsius, some 20% to 30% of plant and animal species will face the risk of extinction.

5. Freshwater withdrawals from lakes and rivers have doubled since 1960, with three-quarters used for agriculture. Water scarcity in many areas constrains food production, exacerbating hunger and poverty, and reduces other ecosystem services provided by water.


TIPS TO GO GREEN EVERYDAY


1. Shop with your own reusable 'green bag' instead of using plastic bags.

2. Turn off lights, TV and computers when not in use.

3. Unplug your mobile phone as soon as it has been fully charged.

4. Use energy saving light bulbs in every room.

5. Buy reusable batteries. You'll save money and energy use.

6. Pay bills on-line and subscribe to e-Statements to save paper and avoid unnecessary car trips.

7. Remember the three R's - Reduce, Reuse and Recycle.



The future of all life on earth depends on each and everyone of us.

So ACT NOW and GO GREEN EVERY DAY!

The other stall....

Traveling down the interstate and needing to use the restroom, I stop at a rest area and head to the restroom.

I was barely sitting down when I heard a voice from the other stall saying:
'Hi, how are you?'

I'm not the type to start a conversation in the restroom and I don't know what got into me, but I answered, somewhat embarrassed,
'Doin' just fine!'

And the other person says:
'So what are you up to?'

What kind of question is that? At that point, I'm thinking this is too bizarre so I say:
'Uhhh, I'm like you, just traveling!'

At this point I am just trying to get out as fast as I can when I hear another question.
'Can I come over?'

Ok, this question is just too weird for me but I figured I could just be polite and end the conversation. I tell them
'No..I'm a little busy right now!!!'

Then I hear the person say nervously...

'Listen, I'll have to call you back. There's an idiot in the other stall who keeps answering all my questions.

Cell phones, don't you just love them!

Kung Fu Panda

In theaters June 6, 2008

Summary


It's the story about a lazy, irreverent slacker panda, named Po, who is the biggest fan of Kung Fu around...which doesn't exactly come in handy while working every day in his family's noodle shop. Unexpectedly chosen to fulfill an ancient prophecy, Po's dreams become reality when he joins the world of Kung Fu and studies alongside his idols, the legendary Furious Five -- Tigress, Crane, Mantis, Viper and Monkey -- under the leadership of their guru, Master Shifu. But before they know it, the vengeful and treacherous snow leopard Tai Lung is headed their way, and it's up to Po to defend everyone from the oncoming threat. Can he turn his dreams of becoming a Kung Fu master into reality? Po puts his heart - and his girth - into the task, and the unlikely hero ultimately finds that his greatest weaknesses turn out to be his greatest strengths.
