A tough battle with termites
I can feel that the door frame is so soft under the pressure of my thumb and i can hear the "crek crek crek" sound made by the termites. So we called up the pest control company and the guy suggest on 3 methods to solve our termite problem:
1) Normal spraying of chemicals at the infected area. Cost: RM680
2) Drilling multiple holes through the floor to spray the chemicals into underground area. Cost: RM1600
3) Termite baiting system. Cost: RM1800
The first method involves spraying at the infected door frame only. It will kill the termites for the moment but they might come back easily after a period of time. It's a budget method to cure the termite problem but its not very effective. Canceled.
The second method involves drilling hundreds of holes in the joints of the floor tiles. This is the most common method and there will be a hole every 2 feet of tiles. However, drilling hundreds of holes in your floor will of course destroy your beautiful tiled floor. Therefore, it is canceled.
Final method which is the termite baiting system is quite popular today since it doesn’t require holes to be drilled into your floor. They will install a container with poisoned termite food attached to the door frame. This will kill the whole colony of termites underground and it is proved to be effective.
So in the end we picked the third method and the guy help us install it on the spot. The roof and 1st floor are checked and its termite free. Therefore we only need to treat the doors downstairs.
We poked a hole through the door frame and stick some tissue at the entrance as bait. Termites start to climb out of the whole (creepy)
He glued the Sentricon (bait) to three of our door frames and just leave it for the termites to eat.
We have to live with this thing for a year and they will visit us 8 times in a year to monitor the termites condition until it is totally gone~
Which means we have to live with one year of soft door frame and hope that they wont just fall off anytime T__T
Fun fact: the queen termite is giving birth to 20,000 little termites everyday. So beware!

Explosive Egg
Suddenly crave for hard boiled egg, so i boil one with my electric kettle. While boiling i heard a little "crik" sound. So i check the egg, a little crack appeared with some egg white sticking out. Thinking that it's quite normal, i ignored it.....
A few minutes later, i heard a louder "pop" sound and huge amount of water started flowing out... panicked, i lift the whole kettle up but its too hot and water still flowing out non-stop. I quickly move my external HD and some of the wet papers and files to a dryer place T___T
The aftermath was terrible. my documents and books are wet, table is covered with egg yolk + water..yucks!
Lesson learnt, when there is a crack in the egg, do not continue boiling it :(

Quote from someone wise:
This is what we call "commitment". Once we are committed, we cannot back out just like that. Very irresponsible and you lose people's trust.

The myth of the Spider
So there is this new found friend of mine which is a very wise person. I learned a lot of things and tried to be more open minded about life. This is one of the very meaningful article my friend showed me:
The myth of the Spider
A myth submitted to the site by SpiderMan
China
Once upon a time, there was a temple to which many people went to pray to the Buddha. A spider made a net on the beams. As time went by, the spider was edified and received wisdom.
All of a sudden, one day, the Buddha came to the temple. Inadvertently he saw the spider. He asked her:" You have lived here and thought for one thousand years, I want to ask you a question." The spider was glad that the Buddha would speak to her, so she promised to reply. The Buddha said: "What do you think is the most precious thing?" The spider answered:"I think the most precious thing is what I can't get and what I have lost." The Buddha left without a word.
After a thousand years, the Buddha came and asked the spider the same question. The spider gave the same answer also.
The Buddha said: "You can have a profound think, and I will come back to you some day."
One day after a millennium, a sudden gale rolled a drop of dew up to the net. The dew was glistening and translucent,
spider liked it very much and she was happy looking at the drop of dew everyday. But after a few days, the wind rolled the dew away from her. The spider felt lost. Then the Buddha came again. He asked:" Have you had a profound think about that question?"
The spider thought of the dew, so she said :"What I can't get and have lost is the most precious thing in the world for me." Buddha said: "That being the case, I will let you become a person."
So the spider become a beautiful girl of a rich family in the capital city. One day, the emperor rewarded the champion of the country who was named Dew. All of the girls in the capital were attracted to Dew. But Spider believed that Dew will fall in love with her because of the Buddha.
But Dew had no impression of Spider, and didn't like Spider. Spider was sad. A few months later, the emperor announced that Dew would marry the Princess Wind and Spider would marry Prince Grass.
She knew this and was extremely disappointed. She didn't have anything to eat for several days and was going to die.
Then Prince Grass came hurriedly, and talked about his feeling of love for Spider. He said:" If you die, I will go with you!" He was ready to die.
Just then, the Buddha came. He said to Spider:" Have you ever thought about who brings Dew to you? The Wind does this. And at last, the Wind will take it back. Dew belongs to Wind, not to you. But have you thought of Grass? He was the grass living in front of the temple. He was looking at you for three thousand years and loving you for three thousand years, but you never took any notice of him. Now, Spider, what do you think is the most precious in the world?"
Spider understood the Buddha's meaning at once. She woke up, stopped Grass and gave Grass a deep hug. She said to the Buddha:" Now I know the most precious thing is the happiness I can have right now."

Let's have deep thoughts tonight before you go to bed, be contented and appreciate the most precious thing to you =D
Good night world!

Chemi Sukaneka '11
I tried very hard to wake up at 7.30 am with only 2 hours of sleep. (It was another crazy night with the girls =p)
Luckily, I managed to avoid ffk-ing my coursemates and off to the field beside UTP lake...
We are separated into 6 different groups with assigned colours and I'm in Yellow group! Go Go Yellow!!! The whole 6 hours of the event was filled with 8 creative and wonderful games. I'm really thankful that I didn't missed out the fun and also appreciate the hard work of committees in making this event a success. =D
Although "Yellow" came in Last and "Red" 2nd Last, we are still happy cause we had fun!!! =p
The punishment of singing UTP song to the Pak Guard in front of the Guard House is not that bad =)
The souvenir i got from this event.... Sunburn sunburn!!!! T___T

To me (at that age), opticians are very scary and they might just scoop out your eye balls anytime. That is one of the reasons why i delayed my trip to the optician shop until my power became 300 (both sides) during my first visit. Kinda regretted it...
However, so many years gone by, and I had tried on so many different kind of patterns, from round --> frameless --> half frame --> full frame spectacles.
It's time to go spectacle-less? Hmm.........(scary also) =D
