Be thankful


Enlighten me on this… have you ever felt that you take your life for granted. For instance waking up in the morning and going to work everyday even when you don’t feel like going or looking at yourself saying what a boring day its going to be today the same old chores. I think each and everyone of us did that without even realizing that life is too short and it is suppose to celebrated everyday.

I guess sometimes we don’t realize how precious life can be, how much God have enthrone us with all this wondrous things in life, but have we ever been thankful for it.

Be thankful for :-

  • Having to wake up in the morning because its another day of you making the most in life, having to make a difference in your life and people around you.
  • Going to work every morning, and realizing that you got a job that gets you going even to a point that you think its monotonous because some other people don’t get to realize that because there jobless.
  • Caught up in a jam, at least you got wheels.. some people are standing up in the bus with the smell and the air-condition that doesn’t really works.
  • That you could spend another day with your family even with the yelling, the drama and most of all the fights because when they are dead and gone you never go say hello and say that I love you.
  • For the parents that you have and still breathing because some people didn’t get to experience that. Some orphan child would die to have what you have, so be thankful that you still got your elders and don’t forget to express your love everyday.
  • Another day to say call and to say I love you to your siblings. Because when they are gone, then you only wish you could say that and let them know how much their lives make a great difference in yours.
  • For the friends that you have, and how the laughter and the wonderful journey you have together. Even sometimes things are rough its just a way of life dealing with you.
    For the gift of being able to appreciate your surroundings and the gift of music. Imagine being deaf and blind the next day.
  • For the body that you have today, that you can still open and arms and give your love ones a big hug so cherish your health and take good care of your body.
  • For the country you live in, because in another world they are hunger and war.

    And many-many more wonderful things in life. Be glad that we have another day of breathing and experiencing at least we have another day of it, because some people didn’t got another chance.

Are you losing hair... down there

We as human being have similarities with animals (Mestilah makan, minum dan nafsu). Tapi have you ever wonder why we have our pubic hair and also hair growing on our armpits. Haaaaaaaaaaa mesti you tak tau kan…. Bagi yang tak tau .. inilah jawapannya and bagi yang dah tau ….diam-diam je.

We our body hair are as similar with the animal fur. One of the function of the hair in animals are to retain/trap the pheromone hormone to attract the opposite sex that being secreted during the time of libido. This will enhance the sexual desire of the opposite sex for mating.

The same function occurs to us human being. Have you ever wonder why most of the hair only appears mainly on the armpits and genital area and also the head. Well the function of hair is obviously to protect the brain from being too hot or cold but have you ever wonder why the armpits and genital area. Well it was believe that that area the most trapped our pheromone hormone is around the armpits and also the genital area.. Maknanye tempat-tempat ini selalu basah dan can retain smell for the purpose of matinglah. Lebih-Lebih lagi untuk siapa-siapa yang bau badankan. Hehe. The body odor is suppose to attract the opposite sex to enhance sexual desire. But, nowadays having a body odor is a no-no thing where it’s a big turnoff when having smelly armpits or smelly pubic hair.

As human grow older, their body will abort the hair especially when they are inactive in sex because the body tells the brains that they no longer need to produce pheromone. Ladies yang dah putus haid or menopause will notice that they will start growing facial hair eg. Mustache or beard. This happen because they are producing low percentage estrogen and inhabits them to grew beard and other facial hair.

So siapa-siapa yang dah matang tu if you are starting to lose pubic or armpit hair its normal hehe pelikkan. Well I read about this but if anyone got any comment on this please do write to me back and explain further. Maybe we could share more information. Just email it at allan@btu.upm.edu.my. Marilah kenali tubuh kita bersama-sama.

Intake...

Remember last few weeks when i mentioned that we are preparing for the new intake to arrive. Well blow me out ... they did come but only a partial of them came. The new intake is suppose to be around 500 plus and guess what? only 74 came.
It is actually a big slap for us.. does this means that our University is unpopular and that the students finds that UPMKB as not thier 1st choise, or is it because with the whole bunch of universities out in Malaysia the number of students is being discarted all over the nation leaving all the Universities studentless.
We have gathered some information that UMS and UNIMAS is having the same problem as well. I guess being situated in Peninsular Malaysia have the disadvantages as compared to being in West Malaysia. Iyelah manalah student yang vibrant and muda ni nak pergi ke hujung pelusuh negeri kat KK, Bintulu or even Kuching ni. KL is the answer to all this, as being in an establish institution for example UM, UKM, USM, UTM and UPM Serdang and not Bintulu does gives you and edge, but when u said you graduated from UMS or even Unimas, people might question your credibility.. betul tak. But nonetheless its not actually which Univerisity you are from but how good you are ... thats what counts. You can be a Harvard graduate but if your mentality is like a 3 year old, then it doesn't make that much difference right.
Entahlah, you fikir jugaklah, later i update if our students bertambah okay.

Meant

Have you ever wonder what's the meaning of you name. I was looking at Andy's blog this morning and i come across a very interesting thing. He was defining his name in a few words. AHAKs. Perluke so i pun dengan tak semena-mena mendifinekan jugalah my name:
A- ANODYNE
(someone/something which comfort a troubled mind or turns attention away from more
important matters )

L - LUBRICIOUS
(this one u find out yourself , this is a very interesting word heheee)

L - LUSTY
(Full of strength, power or health)

A - ALLURING
( to attact or charm by offer of something plesant)

N - NOBLE
(Deserving praise and admiration because of unselfishness and high moral quality)

So, thats it. my name defines me... what would yours be ...?

BEHIND THE NAME
ALLAN
Gender: Masculine
Usage: English, Scottish, Breton
Pronounced: AL-an [key]

The meaning of this name is not known for certain, though it possibly means either "little rock" or "handsome" in Breton. Alternatively, it may derive from the tribal name of the Alans, an Iranian people who migrated into Europe in the 4th and 5th centuries. This was the name of several dukes of Brittany, and was introduced to England by Bretons after the Norman invasion. Famous modern bearers include Alan Shepard, the first American in space and the fifth man to walk on the moon, and Alan Turing, a British mathematician and computer scientist

Resilient

Resilient…… do you know what it means. What is all this facination about the word resilient?Well I came across this word yesterday when I was watching The Oprah show, and she was talking about the word resilient over and over again, so after watching Oprah I went back to my office and look through the Dictionary and I found these:-

Resilient – adjective – able to spring back to its former shape or position when pressure
or remove.
- able to return quickly to usual health, or good spirits after going through
difficulty, disease, change etc.

This is a strong-strong word. I guess each and everyone of us should contemplate and reevaluate ourselves in times of trouble, because this is when we fight God and we box with God , saying “WHY ME” ? why not someone else ? Why this happen to me ? and the worst is “ Have you forsaken me oh Lord”.

But have we ever wondered why when god gives us all the blessings, do we ask him “Why me” and Why not somebody else”. I guess not, because when we were blessed with good things in life, we tend to forget God, and when things gone bad , then we started to resent him asking him WHY ? WHY ? AND WHY, without thinking how much good things and blessings he shared with us.

Well, I want to share with you this story of mine when I was just a little boy, I think I was in form 3 at that time and ohhhh was I arrogant… I use to think that I’m smart and no other force in the world could ever break me or failed me. During that time we were suppose to take our SRP exam and gosh I hardly studied because I am so sure that I would pass even if I didn’t study, because my older siblings have done well in their studies and I guess its hereditary ( so as to I believed).

Then SRP comes and I still didn’t study, we’ll actually I did study a little bit but, it just wasn’t enough I guess. I took the exam perfectly and ohhhhhhh how I felt I nailed everything including mathematics the one subject that I hated the most. Then a few months alter, our results comes out on TV saying that the result for that particular year wasn’t promising and that a lot of students didn’t do that well. Gosh a rush of blood comes through my head and a big question pops thought my mind.

HOW DID I DO??
DID I DO WELL??

Another brick comes flat of my face that day when I found out that I flunk because I failed my Maths. Well actually I did well with all my subjects accept for Maths and at that time the only picture I can think of was my mums face , how discourage she’ll be with me and how am I going to face the world. What would my future be? I blame God for everything and resented God. I cried until I could not cry no more….Faith brings me to a letter I receive from my sister whose away for nursing, she told me the very same thing I told my friends in despair “ In a cloudy sky .. There’s always a silver lining” but I couldn’t make sense out of it at that time but kept that word close to my chest everyday.

Soon after that, I woke up from a big long dream and made a promise to myself that totally change myself until now. I promise that I will never failed even a test my entire life and that I would never ever going to make my mother cry for my undiligentness. I remember waking up in the wee morning studying and asking my mum if she could send me for extra maths tuition, which I never did before. I did repeat my form 3 with a great deal of shame at first but soon after that I felt that I conquer something because I top my exams every term and that’s such a great feelings that I finally drew a straight line in my life. But one things for sure I did , was focus.. I focus on all the things I do and most of all I keep my feet close to the ground this time round and I learn to be humble.

Well, finally I did well in my second form 3 exam with flying colors and it made me so proud of myself . All those harsh word my cousins use to throw at me I kept it and it made me stronger to grab greater things in life. Now as I look back at my life I realize the words my sister use to tell me .. the word that could never be erase from my head.. IN A CLOUDY SKY THERE’S A SILVER LINING and now I understand what it meant.

But, there is so much more to accomplish in life and much-much more to do. We just have to believe and focus, and to bounce back to a bad situation and own it and make it better. Looking at where I am right now, no one would ever guess that I was once that kid that failed, that cried … but I did and I’m glad I did …. do you know why.. Because I made it… I kept my promise until today.

OPRAH SHOW..

Very funny Hoprah Whinfrey moments hehee.



What does it meant to be happy.



This is funny the genius girl...

GREATER THINGS ENSTORED..just believe

I had a big brick over my head yesterday when I got a letter from the Management that I cannot continue my studies. According to them it has something to do with the GP (Government Policy ) and I didn’t follow procedure. Then I went to see our Dean and he told me the same thing too. He said that he wants us to continue our studies here and do it in a part time basis, well he should have said it earlier,… but I am not blaming anyone for that, not even him and definitely not myself.

So for now, I have to postpone my studies and see what happens next. No point grumbling and thinking negative but think of things in a more positively way. We just wouldn’t know but maybe God have greater plans for us. I guess looking at Oprah everyday paid off made me change my prospective in life and take negative things more positively. Now I believe that what ever there is action they should be a reaction and I believe that bad things will turn out good but just wait and believe of Gods plan.

But, no doubt that I still in a dilemma but I live through it and would take thing one day at a time, but continue gives the best in my work and possibly be stronger.
