Orange
If orange is your favorite fruit; it speaks of a person who has enduring patience and willpower. You like to do things slowly; but very thoroughly and are completely undaunted by hard work. You tend to be shy; but are a reliable and trustworthy friend. You have an aesthetic bent of mind. You select your partner with care and thought; you love with all your heart, and are not in for just a fling. You avoid conflict at all costs.
Apple
If apple is your favorite fruit, you are an extravagant, impulsive and outspoken person; often with a bit of a temper. While you may not be the best organizer yourself, you make a good team leader; and are good at taking things forward. You can take quick action in most situations. You enjoy travel immensely. You ooze with charm when you are with your partner. You have an enthusiasm for life, unmatched by most.
Banana
You are a softie! Loving, gentle, warm and sympathetic by nature is the banana lover. You often lack in self-confidence and are quite timid by nature. People often take advantage of your sweet temperedness, and sheer vulnerability to a situation. You adore your partner in every which way, both for their mental and physical beauty! Because of the way you are, your relationship is always, very much in harmony!
Coconut
The coconut lover is a serious, very thoughtful and contemplative person. Though you enjoy socializing, you are particular about the company you keep. You tend to be stubborn but not necessarily foolhardy. Shrewd, quick-witted and alert, you ensure that you are right on top of any given scenario, especially at work. You need a partner with brains, and while passion is important it certainly isn't everything for you.
Pineapple
You are quick to decide and even quicker to act. You are brave in making career changes; if that is what is to your advantage. You have exceptional organizing abilities and are undaunted by the size of the task at hand. You tend to be self reliant, sincere and honest in your dealings with others. Though you are not given to making friends very quickly, but once you do, it is for life. You rarely, if ever, make romantic overtures. Your partner is often impressed with your sterling qualities but disappointed in your ability to show affection.
Papaya
You are truly fearless and take much that happens in life, in your stride. You give considerable thought to things you do. You have a sense of humor that along with your generous nature keeps you in most people's good books. You are a go-getter in your professional life, and have a knack for being in the right place at the right time. You enjoy meeting new people and seeing new sights whenever you can. Your sense of humor is what attracts members of the opposite sex to you more than anything else. It is simply charming!
Mango
A mango lover is a personality to be reckoned with; quite often you are a person who has quite fixed ideas, and influencing you is no easy task. You tend to be an extremist with strong likes and dislikes; and at times even like to control a situation. You enjoy getting involved in something that presents mental challenge. Strong as you may be, you are like a kitten when you are with your partner. You accommodate the love of your life, and make up for all the strong will elsewhere!
Cherry
If cherry is your favorite fruit, life isn't always as sweet for you. You often face ups and downs, particularly professionally; and find that you make small sums of money, instead of a lump sum. You have a fertile imagination and are often involved in creative pursuits. You are a very sincere and loyal partner; but find that expressing your feelings is not very easy. Your home is your haven, and you love nothing more than being surrounded by close family and your beloved partner.
Black grapes
You are a polite person in general, but do have quick flare-ups of temper that cool down just as quickly. You enjoy beauty in all forms, including beautiful people. You are very popular because of your warm, gregarious nature. You have a zest for life; you enjoy every thing you do, right from the way you dress, to your style and élan in your day-to-day life. Your partner must share your zeal and zing for life… to enjoy all you have to offer!
Peach
Like a peach, you enjoy the juice of life… it all its lush ripeness! You are the friendly sort, and are quite frank and outspoken, which adds to your charm. You are quick to forgive and forget; and value your friendships highly. You have an independent and ambitious streak in you, that makes you a real go-getter. You are the ideal lover, fiery and passionate but sincere and faithful in love. You don't however like to display all that passion in public.
Custard apple
You are a modest and conservative person; who can be quite sensitive at times. You tend to be thoughtful and contemplative, and therefore are rarely rash in doing things. You are quite ambitious; and are good at anything that requires much detailing or working with numbers. You are quick at finding fault with others. While looking for a partner, you value a person's intellect far above their looks or good old passion. You are quite shy and not very comfortable demonstrating affection.
Pear
If you put your mind to something you can do it successfully, but by and large you tend to be fickle and have trouble completing a task with the enthusiasm you started it with. You need to know the results of your efforts almost immediately. You enjoy mental stimulation; and love to get into a good discussion. You tend to be a restless and high-strung person, and are easily excitable. While you are quick to strike up a friendship with someone, maintaining it does not seem to be easy for you.
Try it! its quite true!!

Critism
Whenever we move into a stall. A dirty unhygenic stall. What's the first thing in mind? Critism.
Whenever we move into a new house. The house has dirty toilets, ugly house owner, no streamyx, no astro, lousy old haggy fridge. What's the first thing in mind again? Critism.
Whenever we tasted a not-so-famous laksa. What's the first thing in mind? Yuck..followed by Critism.
Those are just the few examples we can see throughout out daily life. Yeah, nowadays unemployment rate has risen to a level which is unpredictable and unbelievable by most of the so-called-developed contries, and who have ever speculated GM would go bancrupt in just a merely 5% of a decade? Just imagine how long have they established their grounds in that deadly soil of theirs..
So, instead of being sarcastic and critize whichever thing we encounter in our life, WHY NOT we try to think it in the other way round. There's always silver lining behind all those right? Let's us start to appreciate whatever we have, whoever we are with, and whichever thing we do. Do not start complaining before even thinking of how it's gonna affect the next minute of your life. Things happen for a reason. I wouldn't want to elaborate more bout my case, but there are just few things which i think most of you agree how i have been ungrateful all these years.
1. When i got Petronas scholarship to further study in UTP. I said, "Damn it, why don't you offer me overseas scholarship? Does it really cost you a bomb to send another kid over?" We have never thought o f how many people out there are dying for this offer.
2. When i moved into Village 5 (Duyung), i was like "Shit..are we gonna stay here at the mean time? This doesn't look like hostel, not even a bit". We should be thankful for the shelter they have provided us with.
3. When i used to have a good companion, i tend to neglect them. I was thinking "Well, all men deserve a spare tyre. I don't look bad afterall, it wasn't so hard to get another one even if i lose this one". Now, when you look back, you know how selfish you are, and how ungrateful you have become. There are so many people out there queuing for the one being with you, and yet you did other things which wasn't right. Repented anyway..
4. When you have a lecturer from overseas, teaching you during lecture. You might think that, "WHy don't UTP hires more American or British lecturer..others have it!!" Yea right...just imagine how many universities in Malaysia has pakistanis and sudanese lecturers in their premises...we are fortunate to have potential lecturers sharing their knowledge with us in UTP.
5. Currently, i am having the most challenging time of my life. THis new job is really challenging my patience as well as passions. I was complaining bout how my department have treated me, how the HR has done their GREAT job, and so forth. Yet, have i ever thought that, "yea, this is the time for me to prove that i am actually capable of living up to that challenge..you don't need me here because i am a fresh graduate. Fine. I will show you someday that it's your loss for not having me in your department. I am gonna help the other department grow and flourish. And who knows, that department would be a better foundation for me in future. The path i have yearned for all these years. Besides, how many people is dying for a job here?Thousands maybe..
6. Whenever we saw a fat girl on the street. Immediately, we labelled them as FAT girl. No hope of being pretty. This is so common in my own university where i have coursemates calling someone fat, and making fun of others at the same time. I did that sometime too, but within limit anyway. Yea, this is obvious isn't it. We tend to call others ugly, short, fat...all of those negative comments. Why not you just stop for a moment, think back of what you have spoken, and ask yourself this. "DO you think you are better than them? Who are you to judge those people? Is that their choice? Just look at your head, you have no hair. Just look at your stomach, you have bladder cancer. Just look at your eyes. You have severe astigmatism. Are you better than them afterall?
This post is created after i have attended church last weekend. There was one statement which sounds like this.
"At times, we are so used to complaint and criticize others for how they have treated us. At times, we are so used to complain and criticize whenever we encounter with a new phase of life, let it be new workplace, new location, new job etc..It's in our veins to complain to whichever think uncomfortable to us. Here, let it be known. Just bear with it, things happen for a reason. You just need to stay on track, always think positively and as long as you persist in your values and beliefs, you will get what you want someday."
(i forgot the statement d, will edit it again later)
Hence, stop criticizing, and start appreciating things/ people around you.

First Outing in Bintulu at Taman Tumbina
Couple of the Year
Well, it's kinda hard to go outing with the bunch of chinese fellas in Bintulu, especially Hun Pin. Surprised? You might wonder, during University, "ok lah", he is so active. But now, in Bintulu..Working life yet fixed routine. What's so hard to go out with Hun Pin during weekend? Well, this questions is better answered by the convict himself..Ayah Pin
Here are some photos i grabbed from Pin.
So, we went out at 8am on one bright Saturday morning. We headed to Tanjung Batu for Sarawak Laksa (pin, jenny n jess took laksa, i took kampua). Then we went to Taman Tumbina to visit these fellas (tiger, sun bear, peacock, hornbill, python, parrots, crocs,butterflies, ostrich...), Sounds like a Zoo isn't it? If you noticed, Lee Lee tried to harrass one of the ostrich..spot it if u can.
p/s: the photos are in reverse order. Sorry for that. :)
