DID you know that women fart three times more often than men?

Probably not. And it’s quite likely you would prefer not to know!

Weird but true

In this world there are thousand and millions and billions things that have never been found by anyone yet but they exist. Weird but true facts are something that is yet to be discovered but thanks to the technology and scientists and critical thinkers, these discoveries are now known to us...

Haha. Imagine if we humans taste with our feet.

I'm definitely not in this group of people. Thank God.

It must be an easy job over there.

If you intended to do this, then, why did you get married?

If they jump, I'm sure things beneath them will crack.

The electric chair was invented by a dentist.

He must've thought of this when he lost his patience with one of his patients who struggled during the treating session. So, don't try to break free when the dentist is treating you or else, he might come up with something new, something worse than the electric chair. Haha.

They say that left-handed people tend to have shorter life span. I hope that's not true because I've people that are dear to me that are lefties.

...watch it...

When I started to watch this, I thought, what's so special about him that makes him appear here. But then...



I was moved. A lot of us have given up in this life. But then, what bout this guy? What bout him? He's nothing like us. For some, they may see him as having no life. But he's happier than some of us. Forever grateful to God by giving him the life. Taking every chance to be happy. Gosh, he ought to be a role model... Just take a moment and think...

My most beloved ones...

We were having our supper, my dad, my mum, my younger brother and sister. As the clock struck 12 midnight, the family sang The Birthday Song to the youngest one among us, my little sister. A few minutes later, she went to my dad's office, next to the living room, where I was at that moment, with the intention of playing Pet Society on Facebook. A short while later, my mum entered that room, wanting to play some computer games and that was when she had to fight for her rights of playing the computer, with that sister of mine. Mum was hurt by what she said and went upstairs to cool herself, and I just watched her gone.

The next morning, I woke up at 12 noon and sure enough, dad was furious about us waking up late and everything that we did seemed to be wrong in his eyes. "Clean up the room, wash the dishes, do the laundry," he said. I was with my sister, the birthday girl, when my dad called her down to have her breakfast. He passed her the kuih2 he bought and my sister grabbed it and put it on the dining table and straight away came back to the living room, where I was. My dad got angry as she just laid the food there, like she's trying to be generous to the flies, instead of putting it under the covers. Then, she yelled back at him and the fight begun. They argued over that and sad enough, I was there and could do nothing about it. He later then left feeling at his worst. I pictured myself to be in my sister's shoes and because I've had arguments like this before with my dad, my tears ran down, regretting those moments.

When I recall those moments, I've tons of times have these kinda thoughts:

• It's better to live in hell than a home like this.
• Shut up, will u?!
• U go die la~
• I hate u so much that I feel like killing u.

Then, the next day, I'll regret it very much and didn't know how to say sorry because I was too embarassed to even look into their eyes. *Sigh~ I know that I can't live my life till this day if it's not because of them.

Thinking back on times like that, I feel so bad and ashamed with myself. Even as I'm typing everything here, I think, I'm having glassy eyes now. All I can say is that, I love my parents, very VERY very much.

Afraid...

I really regret opening this person's blog (I'm promoting the blog too btw :)). Urm, OMG. Seriously I regret it. It's not because the posts in it are boring. No, not at all, but... I've OPHIDIOPHOBIA!! How I wish I'd opened it earlier, before that post :(

Dush dush dush!

I'm such a hottie~

Fuh, seriously, sgt2 lah panas lately nie. Okay, to be honest, before nie, I took my shower once in 3-7 days if I'm back at home. (But hey, I'm saving water!) Sgt lah susah utk mengeluarkan peluh jika di rumah. Except when I go jogging of course. But then, since the day I got back here from Penang, 290509, I have to take my shower at least once in two days. If not, I'm getting burned up. It makes me wanna go to the swimming pool everyday. Seriously, it's freaking hot nowadays, no matter where you are. Even if I'm staying in an air-conditioned room all day long, that doesn't keep me from the heat outside :( It just makes my skin dehydrates faster. *Sigh~

I'm an environmentalist (Well, not the extreme one, but enough to avoid this earth from being destroyed, on my part the least). When I learned bout the environment in my Social Studies, I had to carry out tasks that required me to google the facts up and search some videos on YouTube. The datas and information that I gathered were enough to surprise me. I feel like this planet is gonna blow up any time soon and the authorities are aware of that. Yet, not much has been done to control this situation from getting outta hand.

Please citizens, help this world to minimize the sufferings of those living on it, and it's not just us...

Note: It's hard to save water by not taking shower these days...
