Walking back to my room from the dinner yesterday,
I notice the clock strikes 8.30.
I close my eyes... A bizare sight occured...
Darkness (To a certain extent... of course)
I see the young kids...
Running around from blocks to blocks...
They were the wardens chldren.
It is a funny sight, as I notice them running around...
Reaching out for the switches...
And darken the corridor.
Darkness falls...
As I enter my room, my roomates is in the dark.
Ready to go out while I switch on the fan.
"No.. We have to switch off everything during this one hour..."
That I knew... He had misunderstood the meaning of Earth Hour.
In my opinion, Earth Hour is just a symbol...
To see how many people hated global warming...
To enjoy the sensation of darkness...
To return one hour of nature back to the Earth
But what if... After this one hour...
You go back to your normal life.
When no one's around, the lights and fan are switched on...
When the afternoon shines so brightly but the light in your room is still on...
What is the point of that?
Do you really think you really against global warming?
Do you really done your part on saving the Earth?
One hour is not enough...
I am just one person...
We must continue on...
For our land...
For our nation..
For our next generation...
For EARTH!!!

The "EYE" for Traveling... MATTA Fair
You all know I am a loyal servant to travelling... And the MATTA fair would be a paradise FOR ME!!!
That's right... MATTA Fair is now on in PWTC, Kuala Lumpur. It is the biggest event for those Malaysian who has something to do with Travelling as their hobby. ( (^o^)v ) Unfortunately I forgot to bring my camera there despite the famous event is on...
I would dare to say the crowd this year wasn't as big as the previous year... (Seriously... Last few years was a TOTAL Mayhem... Where human traffic is everywhere!) Maybe because of the Econimic Downfall... The people coming, according to my experiance, has dropped about 20% this year.
Despite the fact... I would still say the MATTA fair is still a big mayhem this year. The crowd there was unbelivable and there are promoters EVERYWHERE!!! I spotted a group of my high school friends there being the promoters in a travel Agent company.
MATTA fair as split itself to 2 parts: Domestic Travel and International Travel. This year, the Malaysian has done a fantastic job on creating a programme call "ZOOM Malaysia!" There we could see many booths and native state people promoting. I would not live this part... (Maybe cause I don't like Domestic Travel ) So let's move on to the International...
The International Department was given to 2 EXTREMELY LARGE Hall... Maybe cause too many people will be there. Many famous travelling company, such as MSL, Keris, Apple Travel etc are there... Say WOW to International Travel.
My mom (BTW, she is a travel maniac) booked a ticket to "Chang Ziang Shan Xia" (Long river Cruise) with my grandma. I, unfortunately, unable to go... T_T
Pretty shock of meeting my old friends there... They were promoting their company to the people. As a friend... (Unfortunately) I got "promoted" by them... Asking me to travel... Poor me... T_T (Nice to see you there Pei Voon, Jac, and Xiang Ling)
Besides that, LIVE concert and performance at the stage is also a huge event there... There are some band from Korea, Philipines are there to perform their gigs and rock the Exhibition!!! In Addition, some costume character from Dreamworld are giving joy to the young kids there...
MATTA fair is an EYE open place... GO there once in a while... There is still one day left on the remarkable 3 day event!!!

A sign of Relief...
On the Wednesday where I have to pass up my HUGE assignment... I recieved a shocking news from home... My dad had stroke...
With the first impression, my heart suddenly sank into emptiness when I got the info from my brother. I really feel a sudden blank in my heart, and paused for quite a long time. My bro was crying on the other side... And I suddenly fell into a traumatized position.
Then, I went out to express... Expressing my rage... Sadness... Regret... All the things I do not appriciate in my past few days towards my dad. I quickly jog outside to release all this unwanted emotions... (Of course to buy the neccessary stuff for my assignment. The whole 1 hour and a half outside made me relax...
What makes it much more relaxing is the punishment of God towards my indespicable behaviour... After, I got the infofrom my mum that my dad is ok... I gave a sudden relief, yet still feel uneasy and worried... Soon after, I speak silently in my heart... "Oh God, I regret on my behaviour on not caring for my dad... Please let him be safe and punish me instead..."
I got my punishment alright... And it is a heavy downfall of water from the skies... I don't know this is the reaction of God towards my behaviour... Or merely BAD LUCK!!!
Anyhow, I rushed back hom on Thursday. In the Afternoon, I went to pick up my dad in the hospital. I did not cry since then. He is back to his old wacky dad I used to have... The doctor said it is a minor stroke, my dad manage to reverse the stroke by himself and back to his normal self. So a sign of relief hit me.
Although I told him not to work in the next few days... He just couldn't listen... That's my dad's attitude... But he had tried to cut down on the workload.
Thank you all frenz for giving me the support I need in the few days of worrying. Your concern is very much appriciated. Speaking of appriciation, I felt I need to put more concern to my dad and hope that I won't regret the next time if something bad happen...

The Greed for Knowledge
I have opened another topic. The evil side of me. I call the new category <7>
Greed...
I just finished presented my literature on a novel I have studied, Lord of the Flies. I love that story and do a lot of research for myself. So many research, that even the experts in the internet, (like Spark Notes and BookRags) did not even state the issue out.
And today, I presented my findings in front of the class. Pn. Zarina, my lecturer find it interesting and describe my presentation as "Very unique... Something different but correct... Very good"
I was happy... At the same time, I notice my classmates starts to copy my slides. Then I have to say an evil side of me emerge in my body.
I felt I am stupid... No, EXTREMELY STUPID on presenting my own creation to the class. Now that they have my points, I felt that they would most probably use my point in the exam or something.
I know this is wrong, but I truly got the feeling of regret, and a bit of hatred towards the others that got my unique point. It has become not unique anymore if I use it in my essay in exam, as all the others will use my point as well.
This is a very ad attitude of me, but at least i keep to myself and not saying it out. But then again, having to comit the sin Greed for Knowledge... I truly am... I want to become one of those unique people with wonderful ideas. The Greed has increwasing inside me, and I felt it is hard to control if this goes on.
Do I make the right decision on presenting? I don't know... but I shall see the result sooner in the exam. I really hope this is the suicidal move I made that may cost me to fail in the exam. I'm afraid...
