P/s - I enjoyed watching this comedy series. I spent my last two days watching it. Very funny and stupid. It is about two guys or nerds or wierdos, from an IT Dept of a company, trying to live a life like other normal people.

Blair and Georgina

Yep, these two are my favorite characters in the best tv series ever, Gossip Girl. I just love the drama that they created in the series.

Blair (Leighton Meester) is one of the lead characters in the series. Although Georgina (Michelle Trachtenberg) is just a temporary character, I still love her for the antagonist role played.

Hmm, please enjoy the following scenes that I captured from the last week episode (I am patiently downloding the new episode for this week. The download rate is very slow since I just use the free account. Hahaha!)

Guys, do you know that you can read the actual Gossip Girl's blog (as shown on tv) on the web? Just click here. It is a very interesting blog!

It Was Raining...

It was raining in KL yesterday and I am grateful for that. Thank you God. The temperature went down a little bit yesterday.

My U Mobile Is Working~ Yeay!

Hoho! As some of you already know, I got problem with my U Mobile connection at home before. The problem was, although the modem was connected, I still couldn't get through the internet. I had made complaints for several time and got frustrated with it. The customer service's operater once said that it was my problem with the receiver, not their problem.  I don't think the problem came from me because when I was using it at UIA, i worked just fine.

However, yesterday, when I had brought back all my belonging to home, together with my computer, I tried to connect the internet by the U Mobile modem and tada!, the internet was connected. I was happy at that time. Now I can update my blog, get the latest news about my friends from facebook at home from my room.

Could and Would

"Could" is used to express possibility or past ability as well as to make suggestions and requests. "Could" is also commonly used in conditional sentences as the conditional form of "can."

"Would" is most commonly used to create conditional verb forms. It also serves as the past form of the modal verb "will." Additionally, "would" can indicate repetition in the past. For more information on the grammar behind the modal verb "would," visit the following tutorials: Conditional Tutorial, Future in the Past, and Would Always.

Not In The Mood...

Seriously, i am not in the mood to do anything right now. Although I will be having a presentation for my FYP at 9.25am this morning, I don't feel that I want to deliver it today. I don't think I can give my very best for the presentation. The power point slides, Oh Lord, I just finished doing it 5 minutes ago (menggambarkan yg aku ni mmg last minute punya org).

Seriously, I'm gonna be a dead meat today. Actually, I don't really care. I want to finish this head-spinning matter a.s.a.p.

Argh! Please. FYP, get out of my head!

Me @ MHI

Hmm, a bit too late, but i still wanna post some pictures about me and other Caklempong IIUM members, went to Sri Pentas on 23rd March 2009. The visit was actually to promote IIUM Andeka Caklempong Musical Group in Malaysia Hari Ini (MHI)'s slot.

During the visit, we were able to perform for a total of more than 20 minutes air time. We perform several songs which include Mudik Arau, Ikan Kekek, Yang Mana Satu, Perahu Layar, Ketipang Payung and lastly, Besame Mucho.

The visit was one of the proudest moment for our club. We hope that in the future, we will get more invitations from other media and corporate companies to perform for them, InsyaAllah. To know more about IIUM Andeka Caklempong Musical Group, click here

Br. Shahrizal Idzuan - Our Kindhearted LOP Lecturer

This post is specially dedicated to our kind and student-friendly LOP lecturer, Bro. Sharizal Idzuan B. Wahad Abdul Rahman (not Br. Shahrul ar). The pictures above were taken when we were having dinner together under Br Sharizal treat. This post is not written just because he 'belanja' us yesterday, but because he is actually a very nice lecturer (sometime terlebih nice pon ada).

He taught us Language for Occupational Purpose (LE4100) for the past 14 weeks and some of the topics that we learned during the period include the 5Cs in communication, the barriers of communication, how to make memos and letters and so on. He was very funny in class and we actually learned many informal facts + phrases from all his stories throughout the course this semester. Haha!

Nevertheless, I hope that I can do very well for the final exam which will be on 8th of April to prove that I actually really learned something during the class. This is because Bro Sharizal always ask us whether or not we learned anything at the end of each class. Hahaha!

Jom kawan2, let us score LE4100 together!

P/s - To Br Sharizal, if you are reading this, do not hesitate to comment on my grammar ya. I know I have many grammar errors here and there. Hahaha!
