You've probably heard the event going on between Malaysia and Singapore on their claim on the stated island. It's not really an island actually, it's an outcrop of rocks but most importantly it belongs to Malaysia. I would be devastated if the decision reached by the international court of justice sides Singapore.

That Brazilian born dude who plays for Croatia -Eduardo Da Silva- was great. Of course he is, he's playing with Arsenal.

We went out today to the city and the lights were beautiful. Yes, lights in the spirit of celebrating christmas or so to say. My stepdad has got the pics so I'll be posting them up here when I get them...ahh, my stepdad is a nice person. Yeah, he can be really mean when he feels like it. He's okay but I can clearly see that he's not too keen on things when it comes to my 2 elder brothers. I pity them actually, I feel that life is quite unfair for them. I don't want to be treated nicely...well, not nice but okay...while my elder brothers have to get through with things in their own time. I just hope that whatever it is, my elder brothers won't hate me because I love them both...although sometimes I do get mad with their habits, deep down inside I truly love them even when they are down in their bad times. I guess it's what you call unconditional love or brotherly-sisterly love.
I got the pictures of the Proton concept car from email forwards and I'd have to say that it certainly gets my vote. Yes, you could say whatever you want about Malaysia, that it's not advanced, the car sucks and all that...but I'm telling you my friend, we are getting there. We are getting better day by day.
What's that I hear coming out from your mouth? WOW? Yes, indeed it is a 'wow' factor. A toast for the development of cars in Malaysia.
P/S: By the way, just in case you're wondering on what my favourite car is...so far, it's the VW new beetle. It rocks my socks off.
Oh baby, oh baby. Very sexy in every sense...I WANT ONE!!!
Insurance, in law and in economics, is being defined as a form of risk management primarily used to hedge against the risk of losses under certain conditions.

Why http://www.advantagetermlife.com/ ? Well...it seems to have a good, simple site that is widely informational and very organized too. This makes life much more easier as it's very easy to browse through this site, gone were the days of confusion as to where to find specific informations.

I am very worried about my family. We might seem happy on the outside but on the inside it seems like there's this pretentious theme going on. I pretend not to know but deep down I wish that I had not known about it.
Jane and Arlene are outside their nursing home, having a drink and a smoke, when it starts to rain. Jane pulls out a condom, cuts off the end, puts i t over her cigarette, and continues smoking.
Arlene: What in the hell is that?
Jane: A condom. This way my cigarette doesn't get wet.
Arlene: Where did you get it?
Jane: You can get them at any pharmacy.
The next day, Arlene hobbles herself into the local pharmacy and announces to the pharmacist that she wants a box of condoms.
The pharmacist, obviously embarrassed, looks at her kind of strangely (she is after all, over 80 years of age), but very delicately asks what brand of condom she prefers.
"Doesn't matter Sonny, as long as it fits on a CAMEL."
The pharmacist fainted
I love my car. Sure, some days I imagine owning a VW new beetle or a mercedes, even a BMW but then reality strikes when I see my car. It's what it is. It's a Perodua Kelisa, it's small, cosy and it functions so that's good enough for me. I get to places with it and I thank my dad for giving me his car which I call 'Little Kopu'
It's a good day to be a MalaysianI found this nifty little gadget on the internet.
"An MP3 player that is not only a guitar, but is as small as your pinky. Its an MP3 that is fit for a smurf or just one of those mythical characters in those story books. This handle little MP3 player features 1GB storage, MP3 and WMA playback support, with tiny guitar pick and speaker which functions as a portable speaker. It goes for $101.59. You can be the judge whether or not it’s worth it." Quoted from www.techfresh.net
I love it. I love the idea of it but unfortunately I think it's much too expensive for me but nevertheless, I still think it's a great idea. If anyone buys this, tell me how the sound is like...if its decent or not.
We went out for dinner today and by 'we' I meant me and my family. I had some oysters and they were yummy.
This has to be read and passed on. It is very funny. It's too funny to not post...enjoy....
I was due for an appointment with the gynaecologist later in the week. Early one morning, I received a call from the doctor's office to tell me that I had beenrescheduled for that morning at 9:30 am.
I had only just packed everyone off to work and school, and it was already are around 8:45 am. The trip to his office took about 35 minutes, so I didn't have any time to spare.
As most women do, I like to take a little extra effort over hygiene when making such visits, but this time I wasn't going to be able to make the full effort. So, I rushed upstairs, threw off my pajamas, wet the washcloth that was sitting next to the sink, and gave myself a quick wash in that area to make sure I was at least presentable. I threw the washcloth in the clothes basket, donned some clothes, hopped in the car and raced to my appointment.
I was in the waiting room for only a few minutes when I was called in. Knowing the procedure, as I'm sure you do, I hopped up on the table, looked over at the other side of the room and pretended that I was in Paris or some other place a million miles away.
I was a little surprised when the doctor said, "My, we have made an extra effort this morning, haven't we?" I didn't respond. After the appointment, I heaved a sigh of relief and went home. The rest of the day was normal. Some shopping, cleaning, cooking. After school when my 6 year old daughter was playing, she called out from the bathroom, "Mommy, where's my washcloth?"
I told her to get another one from the cupboard. She replied, "No, I need the one that was here by the sink, it had all my glitter and sparkles saved inside it."
I am NEVER going back to that doctor, EVER!
I got this article from reuters. I thought it was something quite special and sweet (to a certain extent) Have a look...
NAPLES (Reuters) - One of Italy's most infamous mobsters has fathered a daughter more than two decades after being jailed for life without the right to conjugal visits.
The miracle of sorts is thanks to a legal battle that allowed Raffaele Cutolo, a former boss of the Naples-based Camorra crime organization, the right to father a child through artificial insemination.
It was a first for Italy, where mob bosses are expected to serve "hard time" once they are brought to justice.
"I'll die in prison. My last wish is to give my wife a child," Cutolo told newspaper La Repubblica last year.
Cutolo married his wife, appropriately named "Immacolata" or "Immaculate" in prison in 1983, but the two never consummated the marriage, according to news reports.
Tuesday, at a Naples hospital, she delivered a baby girl named Denise. Mother and daughter are healthy.
Cutolo is currently serving multiple life sentences for murder. He was married before and fathered a son, who died in a gangland shoot-out in the 1990s at the age of 25.
Immacolata, asked about her daughter's future, said Denise would lead a life far from the Camorra.
"I want her to never even hear that word pronounced, because it is synonymous with pain for everybody," she told La Repubblica
Have an analytical mind? Like to cook?
I recently came across an interesting website/blog while trying to look for meat lasagna recipes. The website is http://www.cookingforengineers.com/
Go check it out. It's a step-by-step instruction along with illustrations. It's also very handy especially to those with analytical mind. There are quite a lot of recipes too ranging from mini hamburgers to beef stroganoff.
It's definitely worth the visit so go take a peek at the site.
I always thought that the one talent that I have is cooking. I enjoy watching those cooking shows such as Jamie Oliver, Nigella Lawson & Floyd to name a few.
...Apparently things are not meant to be.
My cooking is really bad. I do eat them....ALONE because no one in my family is willing to be the 'victim'. I eat them and then I tell the others it's really great and that they are missing out on things but the truth is, it's not that great at all. Yes, I am indeed criticizing my own cooking.
I guess it's not my time yet to shine in cooking. hahahaha. It will come eventually.
