Last week, my ex-colleague, William came back from San Jose, he bought back some souvenir for me.

As you all know, I love to collect Hard Rock cafe’s items, no matter T-shirt, Polo T or Cups…
William bought back a big cuo from Hard rock cafe San Francisco.

William also gave me a key chain for me…

Alcatraz’s key chain~

I like this key chain very much~ I had collected a lots of key chain from all around the world… When my house is ready, I will make a cupboard with full of hook to display all my collection.

Yesterday I went for house furniture survey, I went to many furniture shop at Seremban city, I found a beautiful marble (yellow and black) dining table, six seats (about RM2.1K). The shop keeper said they have a similar dining table which is marble but grey and yellow, cost about RM1.2K (six seats too). They do not have the sample of it, and they will call me up when the sample set deliver to them in this week.

I wish to see more furniture in order to get more price comparison, in my mind, there is a place which I can have home design and more furniture in a stop, IKEA Damansara. I reached IKEA around 3pm yesterday, I goto get my IKEA friends free coffee at the cafeteria before I start my price survey in show room.

Right after I enter to the show room at the 1st floor, I saw something which I think it is too much. a chinese couple and I was in a small size show room, which design in compact style. As you know, many of people use to take photo inside IKEA in order to learn the know how of home design. This chinese couple wish to take a photo of the show room at the bedroom area while there was a Indian couple sitting on the bed discuss about the design. If for me, I will wait for the Indian old couple to move away then only I take the photo, but as for this Chinese couple, they wait but they speak all kind of rude words, such as WTF, “your mother XXXX” in Cantonese while waiting to take the photo. I kinda shock about this, why people can’t just wait for a bit longer for others who come before them to finish they survey then only take photo? There isn’t a need to say such words to the old couple. So I decided to take their photo and show it at here…

At IKEA I found 2 glass displays cabinet which I wish to buy for my Japan’s toys.

This second of the right, wall mounted type. It looks like photo frame, I like this design very much, I can put 2 of this type in my second living room upstair.


As for this one, is good to display my toys at main living hall, but it is dangerous when I got my Alan Jr., the cabinet tend to easily fall down and crash into small piece… Under consideration…

MY house is going to be ready end of November (Include renovation), I think. I will go back to IKEA when the time come… hopefully I can find the same cabinet by that time or better design one.

Someone put up this link at Plurk, and I click on it to have a look, I found it is damn funny. I wonder if a person write this kind of comments in your friendster comment column, how you will react?

Ideas come from Qiu mama’s blog post – Click here [is in Chinese]

Qiu mama shared a experience of her with a Man [Father of a daughter], this father do not push her children for last minute study before their exam. He thinks if they are concentrating on their teacher teaching, they should not have any problem in exam. Last minute study is kind of rush job which might not bring any good effect to the children, moreover it might mess up their study. He does not put high expectation on his children, he just wish they can learn whatever is important to them and apply it.

For me, I do not encourage all those last minute rush revision which we always see our friends were doing it. I prefer to jot down whatever teacher/lecturer saying in the class, and understand all those explanation which we can’t find in the textbook. I always believe that whatever come out in the exam, seldom can find in the textbook, most of time, all the general knowledge will appeared which mentioned by teacher/lecturer in the class. I used to tell my sister to complete all her homework, and concentrate during the class, because if we do so, I bet we at least can pass our exam. With a little bit more of the effort, we will score good result in the exam. I do practice like this and I do get good result in all the exams.

Many people just can’t understand the theory of “Study hard” do not grant you a good result, “Study Smart” do. You can memorize the whole textbook and write it back in a paper without any mistake, but you will know apply it flexible, because all appeared in your mind are fully same as textbook, thing/question/situation which do not match with textbook will collapse you. Like old time Martial Art Master (Kungfu Master), they always ask their student to learn/practice hard for the entire pattern and at the end they ask them to forget all of them. Why? Because you will not forget what you’d learned, but you just need to forget the entire sequence, only when you forget the sequence then you can become unpredictable and skillful. In our world, when we study, we should practice the same method, learned it and forget about it.

Yes, it is difficult to do so… even for myself, I can’t confirm I could do the same.

Even though I being a lucky one, I always wish that I might share my joys with others. I used to share my experience with others, let other learns from my mistake.
