sorry for the long disappearence all ..but just underwent minor surgery to take out my wisdom tooth ... arrrghhh its really painful ..and 2 days post surgery still living on full liquid diet..hopefully next week will improve ... can't do exercise either .... my weight static
so far only lost 3 kg ..which is not too bad considering last week my diet plan burst as have to attend my cousin wedding ... went back to my hometown ... eats lots of my mom delicous food and then when to the wedding party for two days... no exercise ..so far not feeling too miserable ..anyway 15 more to go ...
today going to the dreaded dentist ...my teeth is in trouble and need to be yanked out ...aarrgghh really don't like going to the dentist but then again the aching pain so unbearable
till then adioss
Just finished attending a PBL workshop by lecturers from Flinders Univ Austrralia
interesting workshop with quite a demanding brain craacking session .. but a good approach to teaching ...btw PBL stand for problem based learning ... and its not just case study alone.. we learn how to incorporate learning objectives into real case situation ... dividing the case to several disclosure and then let the group dynamic take over and the session will hopefully run on its own... anyway got news that some private colleges or institution has done it already but as usual IPTA is slowly catching up ...
definately will try this approach to spice my style of educating the students next session
good news ... lost 11/2kg
diet regimn :
3 meals per day only
extra effort to walk more often and longer times
wssalam
a bit frustrating as no changes in weight yet despite all the exercise ...maybe the body is trying to finish the glycogen stock first before the fat
morning eat nasi + sup ayam + teh O kurang manis, lunch nasi + veges + 1 pieces chicken + air kosong
5.30 will go jogging
dinner : probably fruits or wholemeal bread

What should the Prime Minister do to get back people support:
Posted by

|
a. buy back PLUS, TNB and Water Company at current rate and then slashed the price to half ...then we can say all the subsidies or other perks are enjoyed by all the people not only some corporate goons ( who enjoyed very high amount of salary and bonus despite the company lossess) .. anyway this will have an effect in reducing the financial burden of small and medium industries and may improve their production and longetivity ...thus ensuring the economic situation is more stabil with the product price more controlled...
b. get rid of corrupted individuals in the government, be tough on ministry depts and give more power to MACC.. thus ensuring a cleaner and more transparent government
c. give scholarship based on income basis ... the higher the income the lesser the scholarship but more loans available if required...
d. elect younger cleaner visionary people as minister/deputy minister with various background such as doctors engineers lecturers educationist and put them in the ministry similar with the expertise ..only then they can work efficiently without talking rubbish
but is our PM brave enuf to do such changess...
disapointing although expected results ... as TSM said its too soon to see the effect of the new government but then again the same old strategy especially losing on the propaganda war mainly on the cyberspace area and also some tired old BN guard giving old rhetoric lead to the losing battle.. wake up people .... we need real change not just some cosmetic changes ..if ur not brave enuf to change according to people's needs then better prepare for the time when the people will change u .....
eat more than required last nite cos wife cooking is so good to resist even though its low salt and high fiber meals...need to control more myself especially at nite ... but dearest has bought lots of fruits so will get opportunity to control my appetite at nite later on ..one good thing yesterday did lots of fast walk so will see what the changes in 2 days time
today start with fried rice and 2-3 piece of low salt gulai lemak squid... take some fruits for lunch and plan to walk more
....sweet and sour day ..
today is D-Day..
- for the new PM and its line-up to see wether the people still have the believe in them ...
- for the opposition to see wether the alliance is strong enough to face the tough times ahead
me .. hoping to see more practical and educated people got elected ..people who strongly believed in working for the people ... more doctors, engineers, lecturers got elected ..enuff with lawyers who mostly talk most of the time...
start early today cos have lectures in the morning... have soto nasi and air suam for breakfast... park my car a distance away and have to walk about 10 minutes to the lecture places and back... so far so good...
now 12am..feeling a bit hungry ..craving for some sweets/foods ...need to keep busy until 12.45 for my lunch ...
STRATEGY FOR WEIGHT MANAGEMENT
a. Keep a realistic target or goals
b. Keep a food record or diary
c. Its your diet so plan it according to your needs and requirement
d. Choose low calorie options
e. exercise
will elaborate details on the strategy later on
for the past 6 month i have been preparing myself for an experiment of weight management... just to see how it feels or what are the difficulties in trying to manage one weights...during that time i managed to fill myself with lots of the good stuff and lazying around ... so rite now i'm going to put myself into a weight management program with a target weight loss of 18kg in 6 month.. and this will start tomorrow and i'll make a diary of the food consumed as well as physical activities done ... i'm very motivated to really push myself to achieve this target as its important for my health and my professional work as well ...
will keep everyone posted about my progress....cheers
On saturday night the students from JPD UKM KL organized their annual dinner at the Ballroom of Palace of the Golden Horses Hotel. The theme that night was Night of Glamour and the official colours were red black and white. It was a really glam nite for the students as they came and wear their most glamorous outfit ( i spotted one guy with a zebra cowboy suit and he managed to win best costume awards). The event was really smooth and glamorous, the food were good , the mood was cheery and the students were having so much fun. Only the lecturers seems to be overwhelmed by the event.... maybe its the generation gap effects
congrats to the organizing committee (mostly 2nd year students) ... best wishes for the upcoming projects and lots of luck to the next committee ....
as part of requirement for community service course 60 ukm health campus kl students attended a gotong royong programme at Kg Seri Mulia Gombak. The students were excited (maybe :P) to join the programm and arrived at about 8.00am. The kg folks were already there to meet us. However no 'belia 4B' guys on sight. This was quite disappointing as its supposed to be a gotong royong for the village people and ukm students ... but it seems only the ukm students and the older generation were interested and commited. Anyway we started the gotong royong straight away after a nice breakfast (prepared by the villagers) and continued our task until noon. At least the objectives of the programme were achieved on our part.....
i accept the responsibilites to teach the community service course as i'm very much interested in working with the community and also helping the students to improve themselves especially in communicating with other people and racial intergration. Hopefully with this small contribution of mine the students would be able to be a better person in the future
(pic taken from utusan malaysia)Congrats to Datuk Seri Najib for the appointment as the 6th Prime Minister of Malaysia. He's been a very patience man so far ..waiting for his turn to come ... and now received the biggest responsibility as the Prime Minister of Malaysia in the era of economic meltdown.
My hope to him ..well let's just say at this time i'm just waiting to see wether there will be any positive development following his appointment. Frankly speaking so far i'm not expecting a lot from him as i have been dissapointed by the work of our previous PM. Based on the new PM background i dare not hope too much but i wish that he would be able to improve ( with the help of TS Muhyiddin) the situation of this country be it on the economic aspects and also on other areas such as human development, foreign workers, graduates unemployement, racial intergration, religous activies etc.. phew thats a lot even just to type it ... but hey if you really want the 'hot' seat you need to carry the heavy burden and responsibilites that comes with it as well...the ordinary people deserves better that the illtreatment given by some corrupt politician and so called corporate figures ...if they do not change or transform then probably they won't last long in the political arena ..
so all the best to you new Prime Minister ... u wont have 100 days honeymoon period as being received by other before you .. infact i don't think you will have any rest day at all ... however if you managed to do the best for the people i'm pretty sure people will work together with you to make a better future for the country
