The sky's the limit

Today during Muet lesson, I've learned a new phrase, which is

" No man is an island. " - John Donne (1572-1631)

which means human does not thrive when isolated from others.

It reminded me of this phrase that I came across around two months ago, during my trip to Port Dickson.

The sky's the limit.

At first I thought that what the phrase is trying to convey is that the sky IS the limit. You cannot go further than that. And thought that it's very odd because I saw that phrase painted on one of the primary school's building. It can't be possible that the school is encouraging the students not to try their best in everything that they do.

I remember Convent's famous phrase painted on the staircase beside the tennis court.
Be the best. Beat the rest. Yes, we can!

But after thinking for some time, I finally realized that the actual meaning is that there is no apparent limit imposed because the sky is always referred to as infinity. There is not full stop to it. So it's actually a motivational phrase. Hee~

Moving on, I read this piece of article in Yahoo! Apparently, this fella in UK received his brand new iPhone 3G and once he launched the iTunes programme, he found a set of photos showing an Asian woman working on 'what appears to be an assembly line for iPhones'.

Go to this link to see the photos yourself.

What is your blood type?

Recently, I've found out about my blood type and got a bit interested over it. The Japanese believe that a person's blood type could reflect on their personality and character. But it's been rejected by the scientist. Still, in J or Kdrama you could see like the heroin asking the hero about his blood type. There's even a Kmovie, 'My Boyfriend is Type B' about this popular belief.

Then I came across this email sent by Elaine. Found it quite amusing and cute. Hehe~ See how true is it. I kinda agree with the punctuality part even though I must stress that sometimes I'm late because of other party's doing. (I'm trying to say not entirely my fault lah!)

Some of it are small so you gotta click to enlarge it.
















True or false?

the bored post

This is not good wey. Not good at all. The things that I've read seems to be stuck somewhere between the eye socket and the brain. It's not reaching the brain at all! Dang. I'm toasted.

By the way, have you heard Heart Station by Utada Hikaru? Don't click the pause button on the imeem player if you haven't. It's really good. I'm hooked on it. When I should be studying.

:: knocks herself on the wall ::

I've seen tons of articles about Michael Phelps on the net. When I should be studying. I've got something to say too!

His neck is THICK!

ROFLROFLROFLROFLROFLROFLROFLROFLROFLROFLROFL

He's okay lah. Kinda cute with the gong smile. Damn rich sumore. HAHAHA~

See how bored am I. Then again, all this reading is not helping with my eyesight. I went to the opticians for a check up and both sides had increased at least 50. Dang. I'll be blind before I reach 25.

Oh yes, I'm not going to be around this weekend. There'll be a trip to JB again, for some prayer thingy. Will be back on Sunday night.

So for now I'll return to the bored state and continue with the rotting process. Fyi, I've just found some mushrooms in between my toes. HAHA~

My sense of humor's all dried up.

infidelity

I laugh everytime I see this. It's just awesome. Hee~

heart station

Rainy day that chills the skin
The two of us, not believing in this separation
The radio was playing inside the car

Saying goodbye is meaningless
If we're able to meet again someday
Don't you think it'll be a beautiful thing?

Are you able to hear my voice?
1 o'clock at night, on heart station
A dial that doesn't need tuning
A secret hertz
Are you receiving the frequencies of my heart?
Heart station of sinners
A secret only God knows
I miss you...

The more I think I need to forget
The more these thoughts remain

Even if we are apart
You are right here
In the middle of my heart

I thought I heard your voice
1 o'clock at night, on heart station
Two pulses, always beating somewhere
Are you receiving the frequencies of my heart?
Heart station of lovers
We're receiving a request again tonight
"I Love You"

Are you able to hear my voice?
1 o'clock at night, on heart station
A secret hertz that still connects us
Are you receiving the frequencies of my heart?
Heart station of sinners
A secret only God knows

Unproductive weekend

Come to think of it I should have bought the sandals when me mum or sis is around. Then, I do not have to pay it with my next 2 weeks allowance. Nyeknyeknyek. The sis will kill me if she see this.

Watched Wall-E yesterday. It was the preview sponsored by MNS so it's free! The movie's super farnie and sad at times cause it's sorta portraying the world at it's worst condition. It's undeniable that the whole 'live in the spaceship with no worries' is not a bad idea. And the whole robot crew is really cute especially the cleaning robot that is so dedicated to its work of scanning 'foreign contamination' and cleaning it. Then there's the love story between Wall-E and Eve. So touching! I was moved to tears when Eve was trying to save Wall-E. Aiya you will understand lah once you watch it.

Go check out the website at
http://disney.go.com/disneypictures/wall-e/

Very retro promotional card. Me likey!





At least this movie serve not only for entertainment purpose but also to teach young kids about the importance of earth so Imma ask the sis to bring the boys to watch it! Teach them a few things about environment! But I doubt they will get it cause Adam will be so obsessed with Wall-E.

*roll eyes*

Boys.

"and it was called yellow"

Imma keep posting the quiz results XD

Yellow
You're yellow, the color of joy and energy — two things you definitely bring to everyone around you. It's hard for anyone to be sad or lonely in your presence; your sunny disposition and cheery outlook just won't allow it. The warmth of your personality shines through in the kindness
you show friends and family (and strangers, too). Always ready with a lighthearted joke or heartfelt compliment, you know how to make people feel good about themselves, so they can't get enough of you. Yellow is a warm and inviting color for a warm and inviting person — you!


True or not? True or not?!

algebra, sense and logical mind

Left-brained
Most left-brained people like
you feel at ease in situations requiring verbal ability, attention to detail,
and linear, analytical ability. Whether you know it or not, you are a much
stronger written communicator than many, able to get your ideas across better
than others. It's also likely that you are methodical and efficient at many
things that you do. You could also be good at math, particularly algebra, which
is based on very strict rules that make sense to your logical mind.


I kinda agree with the stronger written communicator cause I suck at talking.

But algebra, sense and logical mind?

I don't think I possess that qualities.

Don't you think so?

Rusks

We were talking about baby stuff on Wednesday. The pacifier, lin kan/baby bottle, blanket, diapers and all. So today while shopping for groceries in Tesco, my 'favourite' hangout place on Friday, me and the sis were on the way to the cashiers when we passed by the baby food aisle. SISTER stopped in front of the shelf that stores rusks. Ya know the baby biscuit that you can mix with water and it'll turn into porridge-y kind of substance. Yes, and SISTER decided to buy a box.

6 pieces. RM3.65. Oklah, quite cheap.
And she told me specifically that I can only have half of it.

Reveals two packets.

Looks like the those tea leaves packet.

But there's 6 pieces in a packet so there's actually 12 pieces in a box.
RM3.65 / 12 = RM 0.30 per piece. Not bad eh?

I bit it.

Ah.... it brings back memories XD
