MeRdEkA...!!

Merdeka is just around the corner. It has been about 49 years since our country gained its independence. So much good has happened since that period. We are lucky to be in a peaceful country like Malaysia.

As usual, during Merdeka or any Raya festival celebration, I’m waiting to see advertisement from Petronas. Petronas never failed to create a great and interesting advertisement for those days during the past few years. One of my favourite Iklan Merdeka from Petronas is on 1999. About boat racing. Simple storyline but with beautiful message. Importance of “Staying United”. So what Petronas would offer during this Merdeka?

Anyway, Selamat Menyambut Hari Kemerdekaan ke-49 buat Malaysia. Semoga akan terus makmur dan aman sejahtera. Peace!!

I Got “Kupu-kupu” in My Stomach

15 August
Besok aku ada presentation. And since I’m one of the people that can be categorized as having “darah gemuruh”, so no wonder if lately I’m always feeling macam tak senang duduk je. Usually I always feel like this when I’m nervous.

Even after I’m done thousand of presentation, I’m sure that I can’t get rid off this feeling easily. It feels like butterflies fluttering inside my stomach. The same feeling happened when I ride a roller coaster. Still remember the 1st and probably my last ride on roller coaster. Dated back to 1996 @ Sunway Lagoon. If I’m not mistaken, it was a “Triple Looper”. Yang pusing-pusing 360°.

I’ve already rehearse my presentation twice this morning. Also, I’ve prepared some note for my speech. My presentation is on 4.
I have learned that I can practice a presentation a hundred times, but it still doesn't ever turn out the same way when I'm in front of the “real” audience. So, twice is enough.

I’ve done my presentation. As usual, the entire note that I’ve prepared, have never been used during my presentation. So, I’ve come to a conclusion. In order for me to combat my nervousness, I’ve to gain my confident during the first few slides. That gives me a good start to my presentation, which lets the rest of the presentation flow smoothly.

However, when it comes to this situation again, there were still butterfly fluttering in my stomach.

A Joke to Share

A woman got on a bus holding a baby.
The bus driver said: “That’s the ugliest baby I’ve ever seen.”
In a huff, the woman slammed her fare into the fare box and took an aisle seat near the rear of the bus.
The man seated next to her sensed that she was agitated and asked her what was wrong.
“The bus driver insulted me,” she fumed.
The man sympathized and said: “Why, he’s a public servant and shouldn’t say things to insult passengers.”
“You’re right,” she said. “I think I’ll go back up there and give him a piece of my mind.”
“That’s a good idea,” the man said. “Here, let me hold your monkey
