Today I took a leave for my Master orientation day. Suppose to have a half day leave then the orientation is longer that I expected, infact its a whole tiring orientation day.

The orientation day its self is pretty fun and intriguing, the professor are friendly and impressive. My classmate are interesting people with many different education background and working environment.

Oh and I have new classmate from Iran which is a quiet outspoken woman and extremly friendly Give me a different impression than others.

It is a proud that I can joint the best 100 univeristy in the world . But its also a challance for me to achieve the best. Its a long journey to go..

MIT is a very interesting subject, we can enhance a better knowledge and transform out self to be a totaly different mind set and force us to be a creative thinker, its about pschicology, technology, instructional all blend together. Its a culture. And learning about a culture and new paradigm on it is always intriguing.

I dont know if I have a passion to teach, or to train, but I have a passsion to learn.

I belive the whole life we have its about a learning process in order to gain our goal.

So to all my classmate… happy learning!! :) 

I tried to perfect my sambal belacan…and its alwayssss fail..:(( Darn!! Seem so easy to make but in the end the result like …crap!!!

Do u know how much effort I take to make the good one… from chilli boh, to dry chilli, from fry garlic to blend garlic… everything I try to make it perfect. but what happend?…the result still not perfect… arghhh.. than am thinking better buy the sambal from Malay stall, ony cost me max RM 5-10 rather than I make, and sweet, and dirty, smelly, and cleaning part killing me…. buttttt I still want to make oneee… anybody can help??

Oh.. I just cook reddish soup, doing my laundry, trim my flower..so effisien…ahh.. but not this topic that am gonna share.

Oh talking about my gal, I am so proud when she won the 2nd place in the dog olympic for amazing dog race. At first we dont have confident that she can do that, so my hubby reluctant to join the game, becos that race need agility skill and she hasnt enter agility class yet, even hasnt finish her pre novis class :)…but I told my hubby, its ok to have fun and have a lil faith to the gal. And then suprisingly she did well and without fail, the result is not important but her effort is amazing..am so proud..hehehe..

I might not good cook like our mother or older people, but at least I always put a homey food on the table for my love one the afford counts!!

Have a good weekend…

Our house is planted with the seed of love….hehe..sound so warm..

Flower are emerging as the essential accessory for creating a warm, inviting home. Adding fresh cut flowers and floral arrangements brings exquisite individulaity and charm to any home decor.

Whether sitting in the kitchen, family room or even bathroom, a basket of flowering plants enhances the uncomplicated casual easy living enviroment.

Flower power… look so fresh.. smell so good…

I alwyas have my fresh flower at home, its a sweet lovely touching. Brighten a simple house become more homey .

My fave one is colorfull Gerbera/Daisy in a vase for our coffee table and excotic flower with leaf such wild orchid, lotus, heliconia in our dining table.

Recently we add another  life wild orchid beside our yuyu chair, its a nice touch, but dunno till when they can last, as I dun have a greeny hand oh and of course money plant in the clay water bowl and put on the floor also a simple touch but create a cozy feeling. Even my dog often to speak with them but thanks God till today they still alive.

My hubby never complain about my "flower touch" that I make… So am freely using my budget for flower best buy… but he only complain a bit about why my plant always die without no reason, even I water, give enough sunbathing and spa time, but they still die so no choice I always change my plants every 3-6 months.

oh for you who stay in Malaysia, I know where to buy the cheap and fresh flower ( but may be you know better than me :)). You can find in Petaling street-china town opposite May Bank. I guarantee you, over there you can find whatever flower you want, even my "sedap malam " (dunno what s the name in English) I can find it there.

And here is some tips from me (or may be you know better and we can share tips):

- put fresh roses in warm water on your vase, help to stay longer

- add a bit of clorox or panadol in your water vase before you put fresh flowers

-if posibble change water in your vase everyday and avoid direct wind from the fan

Ok friends happy flower power…give a lil touch for your house and let the love one enjoy it :p
