christmas poem. . .i dun understand myself ...haha..

Snows fall on christmas,
on this very day a smile was on everyone,
with presents giving to you,
and given to me

Last Christmas was joyful,
and it will be merrier every year,
how happy i remember last years celebration,
and tomorrow is just like yesterday

those snowdrops that fell on me,
Like a blessing from God,
i bring you a wish to all,
Merry christmas..

To those taking jap, this is the missing lyrics to the song we sang that day. I won't type from the top since u all already have that. So, here is the rest that you dont have:

ojiisan to issho ni
chiku-taku chiku-taku
ima wa mou ugokanai sono tokei

ima wa mou ugokanai sono tokei


Happy singing~ ^^

A flower unlike any other in the world. . .

Artist: Smap
Title: Sekai ni Hitotsu Dake no Hana (A Flower Unlike Any Other in The World)
Words: Makihara Noriyuki
Music: Makihara Noriyuki

There's no need to be No. 1
you've always been a very special only one.

I saw many kinds of flowers lined up in front of the flowershop.
everyone has their favorite kinds but all of them are pretty.
Without competing to see which was the best among them,
they were standing straight up proudly inside the bucket.
So why then do we humans have to compare ourselves to one another?
Eventhough each and every person is different,
why do we want to be number one?
Yes we are each..

a flower unlike any other in the world
and each and everyone of us carries a different seed
We should focus all our efforts on trying to make that flower bloom.

There are people who are constantly unsure of what they want,
as they laugh a little put out.
It can't be helped, all those flowers,
that did everything they could to bloom, are pretty.
when at last that person comes out of the store,
they're holding a colorful bouquet
and I see them smiling happilly as they go by me.
I never knew their name but
that day they made me smile.

we too are like flowers that bloom in places where no one pays any attention.
Yes we too are each...

a flower unlike any other in the world
and each and everyone of us carries a different seed
We should focus all our efforts on trying to make that flower bloom.

Small flowers and big flowers, none are the same as one another.
There's no need to be No. 1
you've always been a very special only one.

* REason of having the vote *

Reason for me to have the vote because :

1. I'm wondering why recently there are so much of break... Even 1 1/2 hours tutorial we also have a break... i dunno whether tutorial 1 has it or not...

2. I think most of the class know that we are far behind of what has Mr. Lim planned... so, just think about if we continue the break...

3. from the past vote, there are some ppl keep on voting for their fav answer... Example, XX like the answer B. He keeps on vote for the answer B so his fav can win the vote... Weird rite ? ERm.. to get more accurace answer for the vote... pls just vote once, Ok ?

* sorry to say that i'm not bias... Coz Louis said tat i dislike him tats y i do such things... x_x

Therefore, i would like to have your opinion about wat i mentioned in the blog...
For example, louis's sounds (yawning)... gives notes during the class... I'm really sincere to get your opinions... Please leave your comments in the comments section...
THANKS !

The House of EL

Yay!! done after two nights. Phewwww!!!

Serious matter for everyone to read... Is about our class

"decision making.i always ask the majority tho and i did ask permissions. and following this system is not fair as taught so i always try to take alternatives if there is. Jun, it is not easy to satisfy one part and the other. Either side will always poke me. some been a minority b4 and thy use friendship to "blackmail" me. Satisfaction is not easy. There are a lot of details that went unseen because i keep everything to myself. Letting it out will just lead to more mess and break the bridges."


Everyone this is a part of an e-mail that our course rep sent to me...
I blog this out is to find out whether it really happen...
May be u will hate me of blog this or like me...
I dun care i just wanna find out an answer and let u all to know the truth...

Sometimes, it is really hard to make a decision where everybody satisfy with it...
So, we usually follow the majority decision...
In this mail what i understood was there were some minority "BLACKMAIL" our course rep bcz they can't get wat they want...
Frankly and honestly and dun care if anyone hated me...
i hav something to say...

1st point : Is tat really not fair for the minority to follow the majority decision ??
Sorry to those minority... If you think tat there are other alternatives please say it out when the discussion is going on... Dun always keep ur mouth off and after that complain this complain that... Purpose of having discussion is to find an answer which everybody agree... If you just keep ur fXXking mouth shut... We really don't know wat u think... So, to avoid misunderstanding better voice out wat u r disagree... I think the majority is willing to accept...
Actually this is not all minority problems... There is another reason why there is problem...
this paragraph special for Louis to read...
You always ask people around you only... that's why some are not satisfied with the decision... I dunno how may of you aware of this thing... But personally i found Louis hav this problem...
1. ask the class when everyone is busy... not everyone aware of wat he was saying...
2. ask during the break personally... then some are miss out... Why can't u ask after the class...
3. only ask some people in the class then make the conclusion... how about other ?

2nd point : Why the minority will "BLACKMAIL" our course rep ??
to minority : i dunno wat the purpose u "BLACKMAIL" Louis... If you are not satisfy then voice out... BLACKMAIL is not an action to make people agree with you... anything can b discuss right ??
to Louis : do u sure they BLACKMAIL u bcz of the decision making or u personality ?? think about it...

* History Of ketcuP *

I found a little bit history about ketchup...

"The word ketchup is derived from the Chinese ke-tsiap, a pickled fish sauce. It made its way to Malaysia where it became kechap and ketjap in Indonesia. Seventeenth century English sailors first discovered the delights of this Chinese condiment and brought it west. Ketchup was first mentioned in print around 1690. The Chinese version is actually more akin to a soy or Worcestershire sauce. It gradually went through various changes, particularly with the addition of tomatoes in the 1700s, and by the nineteenth century, ketchup was also known as tomato soy. Early tomato versions were much thinner and more like a soy or Worcestershire sauce. F. & J. Heinz Company began selling tomato ketchup in 1876. By the end of the nineteenth century, tomato ketchup was the primary type of ketchup, and the decriptor of tomato was gradually dropped. Catsup and catchup are acceptable spellings used interchangably with ketchup, but ketchup is the way you will find it listed in the majority of cookbooks."

http://www.kim.com.mk/history.htm

"Word History: The word ketchup exemplifies the types of modifications that can take place in borrowingboth of words and substances. The source of our word ketchup may be the Malay word kchap, possibly taken into Malay from the Cantonese dialect of Chinese. Kchap, like ketchup, was a sauce, but one without tomatoes; rather, it contained fish brine, herbs, and spices. Sailors seem to have brought the sauce to Europe, where it was made with locally available ingredients such as the juice of mushrooms or walnuts. At some unknown point, when the juice of tomatoes was first used, ketchup as we know it was born. But it is important to realize that in the 18th and 19th centuries ketchup was a generic term for sauces whose only common ingredient was vinegar. The word is first recorded in English in 1690 in the form catchup, in 1711 in the form ketchup, and in 1730 in the form catsup. All three spelling variants of this foreign borrowing remain current."

psycholinguistics lecture 3

hie all, this blog proves useful after all. Since photostating coloured pictures of the brain will cost a bomb, u will have black and white ones in ur notes, and then u can look at the coloured ones i have uploaded, and add colour in ur notes if you like. It helps to differentiate the different parts of this grey blob. Sry, if the pictures make this blog seem so bio-like. Blame the subject. heh..

P.S: just in case some of you dont know, you can right click on the images and "open link in new window" to view a larger image.

Play our roles to the MAX

Lately i was inspired from a friend concerning our future and how we should sorta handle it. Well lately most of us are worrying bout the quality of our UTAR degree.Well i am in doubt as well until i listened what my friend. What is important is that we should play our role as a scholar to the best and to the max. We come here to work things out and play it well. When we have done everything we should ahve done, the rest is up to God. If HE sees that we have done our part well not merely as a student but a human, surely he will have plans for us. If things don't go right for us, maybe there are other plans for us. The future is bleak... not bleak sorry but vague. We can't see what is there for us tomorrow but one thing i can say is that if we do our best today, tomorrow will be a better day as quoted from another lovely friend. My first sem was terrible. Lots of things turn sour and i was too playful and over confident. 2nd sem was worse where there is not a day i am worrying.Somemore i was heartborken. . .full of guilt and stuffs like that.haha. I killed through it and Good Lord thanks! i did achieve something but then there are still flaws. Now third sem ler. . . be fighting again. I hope those reading will also got "enlightened" by the words i say.Play our role to the max and let god decide the rest. Hehe. I do wish everyone in EL will have a place somewhere.Well who don't? I even admire chong boon. So old and still dare to study. Dunno where is he now but hope hes okay though. End for this round of blog. Hope anyone can put a comment and write something. Thanks everyone.

should we cancel the blog

i don't know what happen to the blog...
i know it's hard for you to blog...
or may be you don't like to blog...
but at least little support for our blog please...
no comments...
no viewers...
even the chatter box also out of date because of no one drops a little speech...
i think is time to close this blog...
this blog just make us headache...
i know my words will be harsh even i know after you all read it you will hate me but this is a truth...
my heart is raining...
i was totally disappointed with our blog...
you will say that no one ask us to create this blog...
yes.. it was our own idea because we think that it can help us understand each other better...
since no one appreciate it then should we close it...
anyway, i just want to express my feelings towards this pity blog...
thanks for those who contributed to this blog before...

What would you change?

Eric Clapton - Change the world
If i could reach the stars
Pull one down for you
Shine it on my heart
So you could see the truth
That this love i have inside
is everything it seems
but for now i find
it's only in my dreams
If i could change the world
i would be the sunlight in your universe
you would think my love was really something good
Baby if i could change the world
if i could be king
even for a day
I'd take you as my queen
I'd have no other way
and our love will rule
in this kingdom we've made
till then i'll be a fool
wishing for the day

I like this song...and if i could change the world, i would change it according to almost everyone needs and mine as well. Not that i am selfish but yet it is impossible to create a perfect world and it truely won't exist. Perhaps in heaven it exists but how perfect it is i won't know till i die and if i will ever go to heaven. I weep for the pain and sorrow everytime i see one but there is nothing much we can do but to do as much as we can...am i confusing?Haha... God bless everyone else.

Patch Adams

I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,
or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.
I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
in secret, between the shadow and the soul.
I love you as the plant that never blooms
but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers;
thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance,
risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body.

BBQ

Hey all, i dunno how many people actually read this EL blog, but anyway, i'll just post this here. Nicole and a few others are thinking of having a BBQ, ppl in T1 are quite keen on it, so i was wondering how the response of T2 is to this gathering. Tentative date, or rather, only date available is 10th march, at Nicole's place (paramount). It would be great if the whole class could get together. So ppl, do respond ASAP. =)

Don't feel shy

Just want to say thanks to my dearest course mate…
I had received the comments…
It helps me in gaining confidants…
Actually everyone in the class should talk more…
Although my English is not good…
But I try my best to talk more…
I prefer you to tell me whenever I’m wrong…
So next time I won’t repeat the same mistake again…
I dun scare people laugh at me cz 4 me…
Everyone is in their learning stage…
Dun worry I won’t laugh at you too…
Dun feel shy…
Cz people who laugh at you should be the 1 that feel shy…

* Famous person In da classS *

Here my own opinion to the people who are famous in class:

Louis -- the head and “loan shark” in our course. Because he is our course representative with very fierce look ( just how he look like but heart very kind) and always asking people to pay money to photocopy the notes. He is responsible and caring.

Yi Hueih – assistant of Louis.. Class representative for tutorial. Always help Louis a lot in the class. A responsible person but she is very soft compare to Louis.

Mong Lui – the most beautiful girl in our class. Her beauty not only makes her famous in the class but the whole UTAR. Quiet, elegance and fashionable.

Ken Win – he is the funniest people in our class. If our class lack of him then the class will be very boring. He not purposely makes the joke but the ways he asks and answer question really funny.

Erm… this is just my own opinion. If you have others opinion you can post yours also.

Warmness from * U *

I would like to thank all of you who really concern about me.
This week many things happen. My car scratched by stupid people, crying in the literature class, sick and last but not least your comments during the class.
All your support made me feel that I’m not alone. I still have you all beside me.
The feelings are hard to express. Although it’s just 35 people in our class but I still can get warmness from it. Thanks !!
