A Pledge to the Mother Earth
25-4-2010 Sunny Sunday 10.24pm
My skin is burning.
If I could fly and sow the hole in the ozone, I will.
1. I will take 5 minutes showers to avoid wastage of water.
2. I will monitor my electricity usage and commit to reduce it.
3. I will not get a plastic bag during shopping if I do not need it a lot.
4. I will like to walk more to save fuel, instead of driving.
5. I will recycle everything that can be recycled.
6. I will reuse the used papers whenever I find blanks space on it.
7. I will turn off any electrical appliances when I do not need them.
8. I will think twice to make sure if I really have to hurt any plants and animals.
9. I will unplug electrical appliances from sockets.
10. I will reduce intake of meat for meals.
11. I will stop buying whatever I do not need.
12. I will use the short flush in the toilet for "number one" and the long ones for "number two".
13. I will practice car pooling.
14. I will pray hard for the happiness and peace of the world.
At last but not least, my wish from the bottom of my heart:
To our school canteen owners:
STOP POLLUTING OUR POOR MOTHER EARTH WITH THOSE WHITE COFFIN !!! WE ARE BUNCH OF ENVIRONMENTAL FRIENDLY SUPPORTERS =)
I don't know how to rotate it.

Catching Cool Breezes Festival vs Hari Gawai
28-2-2010 Sunny 9.09
I don't celebrate both.
Don't try searching "Catching Cool Breezes Festival" through Google since you are definitely definitely not going to find anything. Honestly, I don't know whether if this festival do exists, the only thing i know about this celebration, is which written in the book " Snow Flower and The Secret Fan" by Lisa See.
She described in the book of when and how the weather is during the celebration. It's during the hottest time in the year when the stores from the previous harvest are nearly gone and the new harvest is not yet ready ( most chinese people are farmers during that era). The men were working in the field and which married women ( the lowest in the household) are sent back to their home. The women can only now meet their friends and family. Gathering with them ( only females) at the second floor of the house, they sit besides the window for cool wind and "chitchat" together. In other words, "Catching Cool Breezes Festival" can be said to be a simple family reunion.
And next Hari Gawai, a popular celebration among Sarawakians especially Ibans and Bidayuhs on 1 June every year. Gawai is both a religious and social occasion to thank God for good harvest. The people will return to their hometown and celebrate with their family for the celebration. However, I had never tried once celebrationg Hari Gawai. So perhaps one fine day, our English teacher can tell us more about it, or even celebrate with us too...hahahaha...
Is this beautiful? I don't know and either understand. No comment.

Just found out my mum a great supper cook. Ate with my family and my brother's friends. It's putting me weight but what to do, I love food.
I cant find a English name for this dish cooked by my 90 years old grandma. It's ours tradition to have this when we go visit her during the first day of celebration. Named oil sesame kuih if translated directly.

The continuation
3-2-2010 5.19pm Sunny
I was then been told to have at least 5 sentences for the previous "first post" assignment. Thus, I am now writing to fulfill the requirement. I am wondering and guessing, how long will I be writing this since I had given up thousand times in writing either on the blog, or my personal diary on a weekly basis to record life. By the way, I sometimes believe more on seeking memories in my lovely brain juices.
Sunset view from my balcony. A calm evening.
