Living abroad

I have no idea why those unfortunate things keep happening on me. First, the cash machine fraud which had caused me lost more than 8000 GBP. Secondly, I bumped into a bloody racist on the street. I was so ignorant to presume UK might be a good place. Now it seems like I am having hard time in UK. There are thousands of Malaysian student study here but I am the only one who is so unfortunate (I am talking about the ATM fraud). Most of people thought that I was being exaggerated because it is hard to believe that a person could loss 8000 GBP within 11 days. Come on people, I have a statement here to prove that...

Now move to the racist, I bumped into this racist Pakistani (I am not really sure whether he is but I can definitely tell you that he is South Asian). He called us Chinese whores and illegal immigrant! This jerk definitely need to learn a lesson...He was trying to tackle my Singaporean friend but fail. Well, probably he was being turn off and placed in awkward. I was wondering who is the real "illegal immigrant'' here. We possesse authorized document to study here and we are not refugees who seek for help from a foreign government. Mind you, neither any Malaysian nor Singaporean are refugees in any part of the world. Even Malaysia is a developing nation, we are better than many country. No internal violence or proverty issues there, every children below 12 years old has the rights to obtain free education. Meanwhile, Singapore is one of the developed nations in the world. The only thing I could tell is he is another idiotic creature alives on this planet.

Today, London is totally different from past 30 years due to globalisation. Many unexpected incident could happen here. What we can do is trying to be streetwise and vigilant enough in order to survive in this danger society.

Incomplete

It's been ages I never sign into my blogspot. I have no idea what was I doing. Neither I was busy nor I ran out the ideas what to write. Frankly, I was slacking at home for a few months. Now, I am here again but in different location. I have a number of things I would like to write. Everything is on transition since I stepped into this English land. Recalling the first day I was here, I was so astonished. Everything here are completely different from my homeland. I wonder is it appropriate to use the word 'civilize' to describe here.

A downtown girl travel for thousands miles to Europe and my parents is striving so hard to support my education. They deserve the best from their pampered daugther. I am going to englihten them with my outcome. Life is slightly hard here as I am struggle with loneliness. Please do not get me wrong. I mean I had get used to my parents beside me. My relationship with mum is very close. I used to stay by her side all the time especially since she was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis. She is down to earth and there's no other person who I loves more than her. Sadly, I have to leave her and it's also her biggest wish to witness I study abroad. She wants everything best for me.

I travelled for thousands miles and 13 hours to UK to acquire knowledge. I admit that I am a slow learner and humble person. However, I am determine and perserverance. I hold tight my faith and I am convinced that I am going to ace my goal. I am clear with what I am searching for and it's worth to be here. I slightly adapt with the accent, culture, norms and idiotic blonde jokes. Nevertheless, there is one thing obstruct me. It's verbal communication. I am not able to speak well. I could write, read and understand what people speak (I am not boasting, just telling you the truth). Each time there's something in my mind but I am so reluctant to express it verbally and this weakness is lagging me behind. Those who speak well usually get full attention from the others. Everytime I speak, I am likely mumbling and some people even do not understand at all.

Honestly, I seldom communicate in English. My medium of communication is Chinese...arrrrggggh I am going to pull my hair. Most of my friends here are Chinese. Once, I was trying to speak in English but most of them did not understand what the heck I was talking. They even criticized that I was speaking Manglish (Malaysia version of English) and that sounds stink for them. It's ok, what they said is not going to offend me. Vice versa; most of them are suck in vocabulary as well just I do not like to criticized people through direct. What make me feel console is there are some other ethnics understand what am I talking. Appreciate that

My eyes are barely open now...

Models??

What will come across your mind if your pictures being published in the public without your knowledge ? Well, this was happened to an American family from Missouri. The Smiths couple was shocked to accept the truth about their family photo on Christmas card being published in Prague, the capital of Czech Republic. The photo was spotted in the window of a local supermarket by a friend of The Smiths.

The Smiths sent the photo through internet as a Christmas card to friends and it suddenly leaked to the public without their consent. Now they are model for a grocery store (perhaps the slogan should be "xxx Mart, The Smartest Choice for You and Your Family") All of a sudden, this family became "hot star", from Missouri to Prague and until now half of the world had known about it. What will you think? You sent your picture to someone and he/she violated it by using it for some others purpose?

Anyway don't you think the photo looks nice? The Smiths have great smiles and that's so natural. This photo should be hunt by any tooth paste company :D.

Too much pride, sir?

I couldn't believe that after we didn't keep contact with each other for half year, he suddenly text me again on yesterday morning. Now, it seems like I am going to get a headache again. I still remember the first time i met him. It was so annoying and you don't even have a chance to express anything you want furthermore you need an earphone with you. Since the first conversation, I could feel this guy is pompous.

He kept showing off his military background to us. He was proud with his rank, a Captain (exactly it's not Navy). Yea, everyone know that a Captain rank is just a middle officer in military service (except Navy) but it is so rare to see Chinese involve in military sector in Malaysia especially for officers. I know that you're a military officer but there's no point to keep mention about your "status" right? Glory is not a conceit and only the humble one is the most succesful person. Being haughty could makes one fall at the end even he/she might be a winner at the beginning.

This time he show off his rescue diver license. He is under trainning for an advance military course (I already forget what is the course) since last year. Scuba diving is one of the modules in the course and it's compulsory to pass every level of scuba diving. He began to learn as a dummy in scuba diving field and get a license of open water diver then advance open water and now a rescue diver. I started to dive before him and until now I just get my advance open water license and I dive as my hobby and sport. I didn't mean to compete with anyone. At first, I gave my best wish to him as a friend but now he seems to be over assertive. I could feel the sarcasm through his messages and now i start to ignore some of the messages unless he got some important things to tell me. ARGH! Here comes his message again and I am so sick to read it. Well sir, don't you think that too much pride will become a barrier to you to mix around with everyone?

The 60th anniversary of NATO

The 60th anniversary of NATO will be fall on tomorrow. NATO was formed by the collection of Western nations which was lead by the United States on 1949. The main purpose of this organization was to block the increasingly of Communist influenced by Soviet Union and its alliance during the era of Cold War. The member states agreed to achieve a mutual defense in response to any aggressive reaction by any external party. Whenever there was an armed attack against any of them in Europe or North America shall be considered as an attack against them all.

During the post Cold War era, NATO involved in several conflicts around the world. On the Balkans War, it ran a military operation which known as Operation Sharp Guard. And in the wake of September 11 attacks on United States, NATO forces invaded Afghanistan and oust the Taliban regime which controlled the country for decades. The latest event of NATO was an agreement was achieved between it and Ukraine on 2 April 2009 which allow NATO to transit goods through the territority of Ukraine, in support of ISAF Operation in the Afghanistan.


There were 12 original members of NATO since it formation and the membership kept on expanding. Today, there are 28 states of membership in NATO. At the year of 2009. Croatia and Albania were the latest states to join this alliance. NATO did cooperates with a range of non member states and it also seek for its membership englarment among some potential states. In the future the number of member states will be increase and this will deepen their relations on behalf of their strategic concerns.
