On Eagles' Wings

You are the captain of a ship. A huge storm rolls in and threatens to sink your beloved boat. If all are to survive the storm, you and your passengers need to abandon the ship and get into a lifeboat - a single lifeboat left. Everyone scrambles to get into the lifeboat. But there is a problem. There are about 20 of you, but the lifeboat can only hold a maximum of 10. Any more on the boat will threaten to overturn the entire lifeboat and put everyone's life in danger. If you do not throw people off the boat, you will ALL drown at sea. As the captain, how do you decide who stays, and who goes? Age? Gender? Health? Ability to swim? En. Mohsin posed this question to us during that same lecture. There were many opinions voiced. Some said the sickly ones, those with terminal diseases should go, because they were going to die soon anyway. Some said let the women and children stay on the boat. Throw the older men off the boat. To which En. Mohsin replied " Wah, kalau...

Our Decision-Making Skills' class was as usual today. But En. Mohsin (our cute lecturer) posed us a moral dilemma for us to think about: A group of kids (aged 8-10 years old) are playing on an active train track while a lone child is playing on the inactive one, both quite a distance away from you. The train is approaching but they seem not to have seen it yet. You, a passerby, are standing near the Interchanger (the gear that can change the train's track route). It appears that it is impossible for you to find any way to stop the train. You may choose to change the train's course and save the group of kids playing on the active track, but would then lead the train in the direction of the lone child playing on the inactive train track. If you are to choose between changing the train's course, and not changing the train's course, which would you decide on? I didn't know what to think. To me, basically, you were asking me to choose between killing say, 5 k...

You know, I've been studying in UKM for 2 semesters now (almost) and you know what I just realized? I have never gone out with Jessica, Hui Sun and Chiew Yen before! How did we let this happen??!! Shocking. Tsk tsk. So, we decided to go to The Mines (Serdang) together. Nah, not to shop. We were all broke. Just jalan-jalan and makan-makan ya know? *winks* It was unfortunate that Chiew Yen could not make it with us today. :( *sooo sorry Chiew Yen. We'll go out together again ya?* Anyway, SOME of us were soo excited about today's trip that on Monday (5 days before the trip) she asked me, "Lisa, what do you plan to wear when we go out this Friday? " In case you missed that. Ahem. Outing was to be on FRIDAY. It was MONDAY. And she was asking me what I had planned to wear???! haha Like I said, we were excited. ;P So, we planned to pakat and wear the same colour top! I don't care what you guys think. I think it's CUTE . Colour concensus: P...

This cost me RM 3.00 I mean, just LOOK at it! My rice is barely half the packet. Miserable amount of vege. Well, the egg cake is okay. But that tiny little piece of potato thingy? All that for RM3.00?? wth. I didn't even take any meat. Usually when I take chicken or something, it'll cost me about RM3.30/RM3.50. If it's gonna be like that, I'd rather take with meat. More worth it lor . Everything is freakin' expensive these days. Or maybe that Indon kak doesn't like me very much. Charge me so much for soo... little . She looks at the packet, looks at me when I look at her expectantly, pretty confident that it'll be less than RM3.00 (was expecting RM2.50/RM2.80) and says, "3 Ringgit, ah moi ." Whhhaaaatttttt??!! How cannnnnnnn!! :( Sigh. I'm broke.

Tegami is Japanese for letter. I discovered this Japanese-Italian-American descent singer (no wonder she did not look pure Japanese when I first saw her video!) after Chiew Yen told me about her. Angela Aki was born Kiyomi Aki on the 15th of September 1977 in Itano, Japan. She is a Japanese singer-songwriter who also wrote and sang the theme song for Final Fantasy XII . She has a beautiful, melodious voice. From the first video I watched her in, which is Tegami , I could see that she is passionate about her music, and she could really kick-a** playing the piano! After that, I watched Home , and I was further impressed. Her higher range of voice is just so sweet and soothing. And she kicked-a** (word of the month) playing the piano then too!! In Tegami her fifteen-year-old self writes to her future self for counsel and advice. She seems to be going through pain. What now? In reply, she writes a letter to her fifteen-year-old self, telling her(self) to not ever give up, ...

Hm, I think you can't really see it in the pictures... But my nails are light opaque pink now - and it's AWESOME!!!! It's an AWESOME colour and nobody can say anything un -nice about it! muahahahahhahahaha Yay yay!!!! :P

...Recipe!! Haha last night Eugene, our choir master of Artisukma Choir treated us all to Secret Recipe cakeys!! XD Ooh, they looked soo good..... I L-O-V-E Choc Indulgence!! It just melts in your mouth don't it?? :) This was my 1st time trying Cappuchino Cheese. Wasn't too bad. Tastes of...Cappuchino. And cheese. Duh. I like Cappuchino. And I like cheese. But the combination? Hm, just a'ite for me. Oh, well. haha I thought this was such a Kodak moment! Nana feeding Davie cakey!! Macam malam perkahwinan kan? Bila bride dan groom suap each other le. Davie was like, "No, NO!! Don't take my picture!!" And he posed and paused while I snapped it. Ahah. When he saw the picture, he was like, "No la, looks like my own hand only." Hmm, he's right. So: Deedee suap him this time! teehee I had a good time last night! It was good to have fellowship with the rest of the committee members of Artisukma...

Nana, my roomie haha Seriously le , not with boy-boy. heee XD We went out for lunch together last week cos we were both free. She had no classes, I had none too. So she offered to take me to Ming Ming 's - a Chinese food stall place that sells quite a variety of food at a reasonable price too. haha Lagipun , had a craving for Chinese food that week. :P Got up early, and took the UKM Zone 6K bus together- gether to the KTM station. Chatted all the way walking the short distance from the KTM station to Ming Ming 's. Oh, by that time, I was already hungry. haha And when you take food for one when you're hungry, it's not a really good idea. Cos you tend to take food enough for 3 instead. >.< It was really......not bad! haha Annnnddddd.....they provided free hot (over-salty though) soup and some chilled leong char too. Not bad ba . Some good Chinese food for a change instead of there's- cili-padi- in-everything-I-challenge-you-to-find-one th...

The other day, this time, with Jakun #4 skipping alongside (not really) us, Jakuns #1, #2 and #3 headed to Restoran Sri Menanti for lunch. Again. This time to try out more food and yummy stuff. :) PLUS, It was Jessica's birthday in a few days so had a little advanced birthday celebration. ~21 years old liao lo Jessie!! Old ba..... heehee~ Chiew Yen and birthday girl, Jessica a.k.a. Jakun #4 Jakun #4 and Jakun#1 Jakun #4, #1 and #2 Jakun #2, #3 and #4 Jakun #2, #3 and #1 Different fruit juices this time: Watermelon juice and Star fruit juice. Both is ooooohhhh *slurps*!!! Oops. I'd already taken a bite from my sandwich before regaining my senses. I mean, how can I forget to take a picture! *slaps forehead* Won't happen again. Ahem. That was my sandwic telur with fries. Which is not bad btw. *beams* 4 triangle slices of sandwiches with egg, cucumbers, lettuce, tomatoes and lots of mayo inside. Plus, a side of fries too! I'...

Ingredients for dinner: Em, mee flavour packet oil packet boiled water Utensils needed: Fork/chopsticks bigger-than-mug-size container water kettle coaster (optional) The special for tonight: Daddy Mee 3 in 1 Chicken flavour :) Yummy!!! ;P Ever heard of DADDY MEE before this? No? Me neither. Apparently you cannot really get it here in West Malaysia. But it's pretty popular in East Malaysia. It's basically like Maggi Mee but tastes a little like yee mee . Difference is, it can be eaten in 3 ways, up to the eatee* to choose: 1) can be eaten just like that, like fried mee keropok or something. You know, like your Mamee Monster. :) 2) like mee goreng , or Chinese say khon low , or 3) with soup (as above, which according to course mate and room mate, is the better choice) A bit too oily for my taste, but not bad! ;P * eatee: I don't think there is such a word, but I coined that to mean the person who is eating. who know...

Of course, when you just arrive, and there's a lull in the commotion of sorts in the hall, and you're waiting for food to be served... You take a picture of yourself. Duh. What else?? Then you're freakin' hungry cos you had an early lunch, and all there is on the table that is visible is... Pappadum and... Fruits. And the typical Malay red-colouring-and-sugar-water syrup, of course. The food was still all covered up, so we couldn't eat. But stomachs were already making symphony. Sigh. If it were up to me, we'd all just eat and chao . But that NEVER happens in UKM, does it? Just so others wouldn't start hearing strange noises coming from my lower abdominal section I suggested we take more photos! Just to pass the time okay. Not cos I wanted to camwhore or anything. May Lee and I. Ooh, when I look at this picture, I just fall in love with my red ear-rings all.over.again. :) Me and Chrissy In almost perfect symmet...
