Mineral Water vs Air Paip

Recent studies have found out that water from a pipe is the fourth healthiest water to drink in the world when compared to 1oo types of water around the world, defeating the well known Mineral water from very high quality brands such as Perrier and some few others, reported The Star in an article in Star Two some few days ago.

Interesting aint it? That's why i ll like to share it with you.

It was from a myth of two pranksters saying,"how bout we bottle these pipe water and sell it to the idiots who might as well buy it"? Not to mention that you are an idiot, but i found that i myself bought two bottles of mineral water everyday.

A much celebrated mineral water company, in the US or in India, has comfirmed that their mineral water source was actually, filtered pipe water, causing an outrage among the society for being deceived.

What i remembered was also Perrier, in which there was a case of too many unwanted substance in which i forgot, had resulted in them withdrawing so many of their bottled waters, around billions, from around the globe.

Finally,as written in the STAR, we might consider our pipe water can cause cholera, or any other related disease, but think of these. Our grandpas an granmas have survived food and drinks rationing, in which the water source was piped water, and there were very rare incidents of cholera or any of those sorts.

Think of it, would you spend more or spend less? When bottled water first appeared, the world was outraged as it was too pricey, but when soft drinks are classified as not healthy to drink, mineral water sprang to life.

One liter of Tears

Try to watch it. It is a tragic story. Worth your time to watch

Victims...

A brief into an inconvenient truth. I looked around me to see a society once i thought perfect, would not seem prefect at all. I am going to talk about leadership, and the unlikely victims believe it or not.

Let's start with the leader. He wants to be one, power hungry, popularity ridden, and yet, a someone who actually is only half committed in things. Well, not to be proud, i have been a leader of small areas, just small aspects, but to be honest, i met a leader in my university, one of the bigshots, and he was not a type suitable for leadership.

Why?

Because he is half commited.

You see, to be a leader, you cannot say TAKPELAH, you cannot say Yes to everything, and the main thing, you have to have your own head or else someone with a bigger mindset than him would eventually take control over each of his every activity.

Yes, i am typing this in signs of frustration. There is a tennis court somewhere near my house. It was complete, except for the poles that should have been, by now, finished. The project started last year, and till today, no poles. A sign of weak administration. A half hearted one.

That is small.

A bigger one, One organization in someplace, said that the leaders and his subordinates( high ranked) Should be from the organization itself. I said HUH? What? You think you are perfect, but the fact is, the organization have long overpowered my university. To think so, it is unprofessional.

To all the undeveloped projects in Msia. Well, who is responsible.

Now the victims. Us.

Taxpayers, working force, students, etc,all are victims. Hamsters of the higher ups, guinea pigs of the 'scientists' who call themselves 'super-deserving-leaders', with a fact that they too, are the hamsters in the end.

My advice. To lead is difficult, so do it if you can do it. If you dont, just quit.

Week after week, torture goes on....

Incessantly written, the torture restarts every week. Every coming week, i dread the final exams. I have went through two weeks of project managing, involving setting up a booth for sales and also quizzes, horrible lab experience involving a super long reprt on light and optics, and also repeatedly scoring low marks for calculus.

Calculus has gone into an entirely new level, my my, i dont think i will make it this sem. This Coming wednesday is my chemistry test and tutorials, tuesday, physic tutorials, and whats more, i have spent so much money on food. Living in UTP, with all the stress you have, will make you hungry in less than 3 hours after eating!

My drama presentation have finished. Okay la. Can be done for.

Well, for my tennis, i have improved so much, i am now so proud of my forehand being so accurate. I cant wait to beat my juniors up during the holidays.

BUT I HAVE A MATHES QUIZ THIS WEEK! IM DEAD?

Earth Day (MALAYSIA OUTCOME)

Well, this was the day where almost everyone in the world ( im not sure if they knew about it or not) celebrated earth day.

Okay, here is the update around my neighbourhood.

I didnt off my lights, my neighbour didnt, a few houses in front of me also didnt.

Wanna know why?

Well, lets face it. How are you supposed to save EArth by doing so? Lessen Earth's ever increasing temperature for n instance? no doubt, its gonna be hot again after you switch it back on.

2nd, oh,this applies for malaysia, we are always having blackout,normally lasting 3 to 4 hours at night. We have done our part (although indirectly) and actually,we have done more than what earth day could offer. We offered 3 long hours of no electricity, while earth hour only provide 1 hour.. Aint it obvious;we dont need, not you,but me,dont need to get involved in such un-earthly activities.

Well,in my neighbourhood,its a 50-50,well,that might be thanx to the media,but seriously, i doubt if they ever will do it again.

Playtime's End

The morning of the tourney...

On this very fateful day, i finally finished my ongoing barrage of matches that have left me with shoulder and bicep pains, leg cramps, and also, insufficient rest. The UTP Tennis Closed have been a great exposure to me, and this is how it goes.

Day 1: i went to the tennis courts and had a few pix taken. My heart was beating so damn fast,and i know that i shouldn't be so. I was in group 3, and there are three people in each group. Only two are allowed to go to the next round. What happened,i went against a player that does not stroke as well as i do,but i lost to him 8-6 because i was in total fear that time! Shit... the second person i went against was Azwan, a very good player who registered much later than i do. I won,and i went to second round.

For doubles, i played with aminnol. We played against a foreigners team first and won easily,8-1.. Later on,we faced UTP's most consistent team,and it was a very2 good fight u know. MAtch was postponed as there was a bit of rain. We were trailing 4-5

Day 2. I was going to face the most powerful man in the circuit. His name was mR RAZOUL,and he was my previous English Teacher. He was very good,pawning all players who fought him in the first rounds. When the committe called him,he said he could not get up as he was very tired. He gave me free tickets to the semifinals! Both for doubles and singles. I was one lucky nut that day. he was good,and i was eager to go against him. Oh,for the continuation of yesterdays match,we played sleepily,and i lost 8-6,but it was a very good fight! HUHU

In the evenings are the semi finals. I went against the most consistent player in the UTP circuit. His name was Kecik,shorter than me,but ran like a cockroach for every ball hit by me. My mistakes would be on my inconsistency,and i lost 6-0,6-2,but i tell you,it was a very aggresive match.

For the doubles,we played against UTP's most powerful team. Yeah,hell...they serve real fast you cant see where the ball goes after hitting the ground. We played a tactical match. i was satisfied as i held on to my serve,but my partner could not,and we lost 6-2. Match was postponed again because of some rain.

3rd day: We continued our play,but to no avail as they are too powerful. Combined with my fear of getting hit by powerful balls, and also my partners inconsistent serve speed, we lost 6-2. on the same day would be the finals of the UTP closed,but i didnt watch it as i am super tired.

The best thing is, i got two certificates free! YEAH!
The Rainbow at the end of the match...it was a beautiful full loop

Getting Screwed Up 4 Tennis And Exams.

Tomorrow is my first debut as a competitor in the UTP tennis closed competition. I might have to work extra hard from the beginning so that i can match up with my seniors who are very superior in skills and experience when compared to me alone,huhu.

I am also getting screwed up as i havent studied 4 da three tests this week. ARRRhhh

Monday, March 2, 2009

What was on my mind just now?

Well,the above topic is what you call a HOOK. Its what drives other people to read what you post, and surely, a good hook can steal a persons time to read your blog.

Oh yes, i was thinking about the coming chemistry test. Holy cow, i cant relate it to what i learned last sem coz i Totally forgot everything that i have learned before! Its gonna be this Wednesday and i dont think im ready for it just yet. I think im gonna study after this,huhu.

It is a matter of time before my favourite sport might get in the way to my studies. I havent registered yet for UTP Tennis competition,and i might be late so tomorrow im gonna meet tiara and regiter my name and my team to her. It will be a tough match coz there are some very good tennis players here you see.

Thats not the worse of it. Next week,there would be three tests and as usual,I AM NOT READY. By the end of chemistry test, i am gonna study and strive to my fullest to understand what i learned.

And then,i was dreaming again,to the day i returned to Star for their sports day. Too many things have happened,including me leaving behind my sjoes accidentally there! Lucky for me, my loyal juniors are coming to UTP for a Debate,and they ll give it to me during the debate. It is hard to forget star, when there are so many juniors looking up to you and what you are doing and how,you might be progressing. (in this term,i mean it tennis coz i taught them tennis in the past)

i am feeling a bit worried,so my tense in this text of mine would be dark and in a mood of slight fear. To cheer evrything up a bit, lets see a few memoirs of me and the place where i hid from wardens with kushairy during our form5 years, and also,the vandal or the initial,which was the biggest logo of a vandal in my school,imprinted on the ground of the ampaian at house black,the logo of me and my bestfriends,the unbeatables.
The above picture of house blue in 2009 and the one below is the one with my batch's version. Very obvious difference. All of them this year are like house blue in the above if you want to believe me.

Serious Start?

A couple of events have led me to being more selfish and more to the self,really2 like how i was in STAR.

I hate to say, but i hate people who go beyond the limits and violate the privacy of my very very unstable well being.

And secondly, i hate friends who befriend people only for a certain function,thats for sure.

I am very sure that one of them, who are not my followers of course,but seriously, a person who has a blog himself but never added me as a friend before, would be seeing this,but i dont care. I am who i am.

I would be setting up my own path, my own understanding, and even if i get zero for the next quiz math and the next tutorial, i ll make up for it later on.

See me once i have my debut.

Overall Class Rep And sales

Today,i was again selected to be class rep by my coursemates. Damn,why not the 130 others but me? Huuuuhhhh, since almost every subject will be under my name, it would soon reach a stage where there would be me as the overall monitor lizard 4 evrything,huhu

My day today was interesting. It started to interest me in a way to compete with the best chinese in english in utp, and to think i lost 0.5 marks to him was good enough. well,to be frank,my essays contain no mistakes,and his essay was also,all too phenomenal. Its the first time in my life that i could not underestimate someone's essay,but only have a high sense of respect on his advanced use of language. And what's most important,its the first essay that was made equal with mine i suppose. We have no mistakes at all. Just his language was too good.

Today, i begin my debut in business by selling kebabs to my friends and juniors. I managed to enter YEC(young entrepeneurs club) and after a very difficult interview by the seniors themselves, i managed to go through and become a member. Our sales would include us selling items, managing events,and most importantly, to improve my soft skills.

Today, my soft skills were good enough that i managed to sell all my food in less than 30 minutes. Thank god, nice debut.huhuhuhuhu. proud~~

Debate against an insane 'friend'? More likely,Foe~

Today, i faced one of my toughest challenge yet. It was during a computer lab session. My computer is the only one accessible to the internet. I showed to my friends some pix of palestine war victims from my friend's blog to them. Along came a chinese guy. You all might not know him. This was what happened.

He raised very2 sensitive topics. 1) Palestine is guilty for attacking israel 1st 2) Petronas did not contribute any money to palestine victims(he himself is a petronas scholar,shame on him) 3) How come you can say Israel is cruel while the Muslims in Israel have never been mistreated? 4) Prophet muhammad's poligamy( islam) 5) Whose right is it over the land of Palestine? 6) a few others.

Imagine, he does not concentrate on one topic. I want him to think, but he didnt do so! He went on another topic,one after another he hits a barrage at me. What i do, i give bak that barrage. I managed to counter all of them,but two hours of precious learning was wasted on a stupid individual like him! I seriously underestimate him now. During our last chem tutor,he even copied me,and this is how he says thanx? is this the way you go head 2 head with someone? No proof at all you see, and what he told me were his feelings, and what he calls'the proof is in his head'. I told him to print whatever he wants and show it to me,and i ll show him reality by keeping quiet and let an alim friend of me to go fire him.

Seriously, if you ever find someone going on something controversial, you should say to them,provide ample proof! And you eliminate them with all the ample truth you have.

Im facing one of the toughest challenge yet in learning. So many formulae!

Me in UTP Scrabble Competition.

It was yesterday that the library made a scrabble competition. Some very good players got into it and i was not feeling lucky. It was chillingly cold inside the library and i can only shiver with both the cold and the fear of losing badly.

I got a team with three players. The rule is,who ever can reach the 5 highest points in those twenty plus plus who entered would be given certs and prizes. My opponents in this one, and only round is diana and Tamaraj. We started.

I started first with a 28 marks headstart. Tamaraj caught me by suprise, he was a hell good player. He scored 24. Diana,i was not sure. But each one of us would try to get the highest marks possible to compare with the other teams. I made a few challenges, and tamaraj lost to one of them.

Some other tables have four players,so it wasnt fair for them as we might score more. Luckily, the admin said that those playing as groups of three would have their marks taken and only given three quarters of it to be fair to others. I didnt mind.

Lastly, i won the game. It was not fair for tamaraj,but i invited him for another game. Imagine, in five turns we scored 140 plus2! Finally a friend told me, tamaraj was a state player. No wonder he played well. We are, i daresay, evenly matched. We stopped midway as he had to go somewhere. So i waited for the results. What surprised me, among all the very2 good players...

I got top 5! huhu, didnt though of it.

The results were announced. Hard to believe, i won 1st place. As i walked to the front stage for the prize, i realized, this was my first ever competition in UTP and also,my first win. Next year, i shall enter it again, to go against tamaraj, fakhri, bao, and zulifa(i think).

Mathes Quiz 2moro, im not yet asleep!

I know i should be sleeping right now like everyone else, but i cant stop worrying bout a subject that had bugged me for more than 7 years. MATHES! oh, i hate them soo much..

My test is at 8 and i havent studied more detailed yet! i m so dead~~~

people keep saying relax, and they didnt study at all. I am under intense pressure,huhu. gotogo,goodnyte.

Oh by the way, my chemistry lab today was the worst that i have ever had. We started off half an hour late as the lab demo gave a briefing that long to us. Yes, we are already facing the dangerous labs. Next experiment would be involving 13 mol HCL, that is unbelievably high. And the organic solvents, like hexane fumes, can cause permanent blindness. So we have to wear goggles always during the lab.

Somehow, thrity minutes before lab ends, where still so many works need to be done, a lecturer came in and suddenly shouted to all of us. Yeah,it was shocking. we started late,and we are all supposed to end late. What happened, he shooed us. Damn,my report is only half finished you idiot...anyway,bad day...

Being another class rep, and a whole day of war.

It was early in the morning. I was fast asleep as i thought my emathes tutorial will start at 9 until suddenly shazwan came in and woke me up. Tutorial starts at 8! Damn...

Our emathes tutor was our own lecturer. what a surprise, after a huge break in of my group of 6 being late into her tutor, but what was important was that she really knows how to teach! Lecture room 16 is a total boycott, the tutor never came last sem and it as the same this time.

After that, i went to enrol myself in Society of Petroleum Engineers Club. There were a lot of clubs and i will considr entering them tomorrow.

Our classes continued one hour after our emathes tutor. It was a super tiring day. From 8 to 1pm and continue at 4 to 5 pm and continue for english tutor the following 8pm to 10 pm .

Well, what happened was technically,my name was not in the tutorial list, but the tutor was kind enough to let me in to her tutorial. Her name was Puan Chang, and she was awesome.

Later on, there was choosing the class rep. The majority wants me to become,to my utmost disagreement, but since i am good at the subject,whats wrong isnt it? huhu. She might even give me extra marks,and i am the oly one who have a lot of contacts in my phone. Well, lucky day huh? Tomorrow is a holiday, as it is Perak Day 4 sultan Perak. Happy resting for me,huhuhu...

A friend indeed.

On a wet Saturday morning, i went out to dry my laundry. The weather seemed so fine i decided there will be no rain. That was 7 in the morning, and i didnt sleep the whole night. The air was dewy and cool, so i decided to finally go to my much needed sleep.

I woke up at 12.30pm in he afternoon. Stretching my body here and there, i got up and had a very wonderously long bath. The cool water trickled so soothingly, i wanted to be there forever.

After lunch, i went to play a few games with my laptop. My laptop seems to be having major problems, and finally, i was mad with my laptop. My friend shazwan, told me to bring it to The acer centre. He offered me a ride on his motorcycle.

He accompanied me inside the centre and waited for me for a long time. Finally, my laptop is left there for repairs and we went back.

From far away, i could see the road glistening. I asked shazwan why is it glistening? and then i thought, MY CLOTHES! DAMN!

Suddenly the rain was upon us. Poor shazwan, wet to the toe...and what he said, everythings ok...a friend indeed aint he? he would be in the pic below, wearing red baju melayu i think bside me,maybe...cant remember..

Class Representative,AGAIN!!!

Oh my god, this day was soo out of control. It started well with all of my friends laughing mad at azizul coz he really hates girls and his club, arsenal lost last night. Fabregas down to my gassy butt i suppose,huhu.

Today, we had some problems with schedule. Our chemistry lecturer is a total bum, so lazy she or he,i dunno who, wants to change the time for our lecture. Big matter as we already registered for our labs and tutors in her NEW TIMETABLE of hers that suggests we abandon such classes! Damn~~~

So what happened, she asked who is class representative. I kept quiet,its not me for your information, and then half of them called out NICOLE~~~

Then, she went on blabbering, then she asked who is class representative. Suddenly the whole class went HISYAM!!! Damn... i thought. Then she asked for my phone number. Oh my god. Yeah, i am the only one who can do it, as i have all of my friends contacts, but hei, im not master of this subject. For english, i am willing, but for a subjek that i got C for last exam,its a total no. Well,what to do?
My handy two phones for dialling representatives....

In UTP, things can turn clockwise,and otherwise..

My first day at UTP was awesome for the second semester.. Hooohhh, ikhwan,my new roommate,the first thing i saw when i walked into my room was a wooden carpet on the floor! It really looks nice with my room. He really knows how to decorate things from the looks of it,hehehe..

At night, i met all of my bestfriends and had a meeting on which tutorial and lab sessions we should go to. We managed to finally come up with plan A, plan B and Plan C. It was tiresome,but it was worth the effort for our future comfort.. (MY BED)


The week passed, and we didnt get some tutorial venues that we wanted. We were all stressed up. No one told us that da server went online by the evening. So long for my efforts, We thought it would turn out well, but as you know, things might change at the very end,huhu. We sorta moved in a group right now. The lecturers seem to be experienced, but i have a favourite..MR john dennis. He is a physics lecturer, and from the looks of it, I can get an A for physics this semster,huhu. The only thing that bugs me, but actually benefits me in a way, is that i was chosen to become the class rep for English! (after much pressure) The lecturer said i would get extra points for the responsibility,hehehe..

Here is me, with a slightly longer hair than the spiky ones i used to have,huhu. To me, what differentiates school boys from me is our hair (as they have to have tidy hair right?) . The other reson is that i believe that there is a need for change, and to do that change is difficult, but the results would make you a better man. I am now trying to get MARA loan and hoping it would be a conversion to scholarship later on. Ihave come to realised too, that the fact that i can never expect anything from anyone, but only be myself, and as i get criticisms for being me, I wouldnt mind them much but for the things of the past that have happened, I am sorry, but that is me,huhuhu. Happy forever..

UTP, You Shock Me!

And her it goes. today begins my second semester at utp, with high hopes and with a new spirit, i travelled 230 km from my home to this place.

However, some surprises awaits..

When i arrived at my allocated room, i looked around and what i saw is the whole block is surrounded by chinese students! Wow,the malays have moved(illegally of course) to another dorm which i should be in. Surrounding my area is my petroleum engineering friends who are malay, but every where else, is surrounded by chinese. Lucky for me to have so many friends in such an area that was supposedly should be filled with a mixed community. Well..what to do? I am not racist, but it is surely shocking as the system told everyone that they would remain in their former rooms and what you find is otherwise.

Oh, by the way, when i arrived, my friends laughed at me...i dunno why...damn...

When i went to Ustad Izahans room( my friend) what i found is around 5 to 6 gundam models! Those things are sooo cool, and i only have two of them. He is sooo damn rich. Then in the evening, i went out to play some good tennis, just to see a lot of new fresh intakes in their motivation week program. welcome..

And finally,since so little muslims are left, i went to the surau for the second time in my life in utp. huhu,i am proud.. :P( they urged me to write this down) i am a laughable matter when i am with my friends, and i like it too.

Well, minor events would be me having a broken fan and having it to be replaced, and unpacking. huhu. Today is a new day. I am now going to eat after isyak prayers. See you.

I am having one of the lowest graded among my friends, and this shows,how competitive,utp can be as i had a good standing.

A start of a new seriousness.

To be frank, i have not been too serious for my past semester,leading me to getting one of the lowest pointers in class. Luckily, i am so happy that i poured in 200 percent of my effort,and i got a gud exam grade equal to my coursemates,not to mention,they are,exceptionally clever and gud~~. I was very proud,as wan told me i got ok results.

So for the start of the new semester, my new aim would be getting a deanz list result. If better, i ll try to get 3.75 and above so that i can get a scholarship later on. I am aiming for MARA, and i tell you,MARA is one of the best scholarship that is offered in the country.

I called Udin last night ,had a long2 chat with him about life. Some things that annoy me are people who want to forget me,when i appear 4 a brief moment of time in their life but i didnt even speak to them(like,just being visible in Yahoo mesenger but didnt even messaged them), they made remarks on their online messaging tools, not directly to me, but just to show how much they hate me? I Really dont like stuff like, oh,i dont want to talk to you whatsoever and putting it on ur myspace or frenster or YM status, it gives a cowardly effect to me,in which i think,one day,will laser down on all of them, that, if you dont want to talk to me, its fine. I dont care,its your life,but your actions define that you want to exert authority on the person you hate by saying you hate them, in a way to make them say sorry and automatically,giving you a chance to say'no i dont forgive you'. Take a life la, i dont want to talk to you either, just remaining silent there is enough. We are just contacts,not friends. So,what? I didnt messaged you in the first place. Its you who put it in your frenste shoutout and ym status.

So now readers,do you see logic in my words? :) boo to to that certain individual..huhu

Im feeling cold and my heart is beating faastt!!

Oh my god!~ my exam results have came out and a lot of my utp frenz have messaged me dat da results are at the webmail. My god, aND what tortures me is dat i dunno how da hell am I going to check it and how well or bad i fared. I hope i can get a very good result,maybe something of 3 pointer and above because this really tend to make me piss in my pants.. Hope i can get better that udin (to be honest,no kot)

hoho,udin is my first visitor! hello din!!! Im freaking out over here,so maybe later on,i ll blog u my resultz.

Tuesday, January 6, 2009

My first blog

Hoho,today would be the day where i would open my blog,under much recommendations from my

friends and on my willingness to do so. Well,today is a Tuesday,and yes, i am still at home waiting

one more week to be there in UTP. MY feelings now would be sincerely mixed up as tomorrow,the

outcome of my results shall surface its ugly head and i really hoped that i could get more than a

three pointer,as i will strive harder the next sem,huhu.
