i’m sure you guys had came across this news on 28 sept. re: cheque scam which happened in penang. can you believe that? RM3 million siphoned off right under the penang state government’s nose. the beginning of the report says:

the penang government has lost RM3mil. from its account in a bank through counterfeit state state cheques banked into accounts of individuals and companies in the klang valley since early this month.

…so says the personality test i had taken from emode and this is what it says further:

That means you’re one of the more kind-hearted people around. You are unusually intuitive, and you probably understand yourself, as well as others. That also means you’re a good mediator though you may prefer to spend more quiet time on your own than most.

yesterday’s news in bernama says it all - ching peng is not allowed to return to malaysia so said our deputy PM. oh but he add “for now”. so what does he mean? now is not a good time? he can return later?

anyway, in the same source, another article had the ex-servicemen association calling on the government to ban chin peng from entering malaysia all together. go there to read thier reasons.

i feel it is kind of a silly reason. i don’t know but what i think is what is past, is past, why worry so much about memories? hasn’t it be said that let bygones be bygones? or forgive and forget? what do you think?

i was alerted to this camera key ring by wits0, who found it posted on oon yeoh’s blog ‘digerati’. here’s what oon yeoh has to say about it:

==
Dubbed wearable digital cameras, Phillips’s Camera Key Rings allow you to capture pictures easily anytime you want as it travels with you wherever you go, and shooting pictures is a snap. Just slide over the protective lens cover, point and shoot. It’s as that simple.

you see, i remember many years back reading in the paper a feature on reading, someone complained that people don’t read as often as they should and he further said “to keep your body healthy, you take up exercises like body lifting, swimming and so on. well, you need to keep your mind healthy too and how do you do that? exercising your mind! and you do that through reading.”

hmm… i realised it is true. when you read, you learn, when you learn, you grow. that’s why the saying ‘we stop growing when we stop learning’.

another thing is i feel blogging should suit me since i love to yak-yak-yak a lo…. in writing! yes i love writing and i love talking and a blog will sure give me the opportunity to do just that. well i write better than i talk anyway. yes, ‘talking’ in writing i can do very well but talking in person… believe it or not, i’m rather shy. it’s like a different persona of me…in writing and in person. but no fear, once i warm up to a person/group. i can talk a lot.

hey you there! if you are right now reading this, i humbly thank you for taking the time to come in to my weblog. hopefully to see you coming back again and again and again… because if there are no readers, no ’syok’ lah for me to blog, so please… puh…leezz pay a visit to my humble weblog often ok? and since i especially love feedback/comments from readers so do remember to put in your say ok (under ‘jog’? terima kasih. thank you. kam siah. nendri.

as befit the heading of this blog, here is a little quick mind exercise to try out.

don’t worry my blog is not going to be all like this… taking exercise or quiz. it’s just something to get this blog off for now, apart from the intro post below.

tomorrow i’ll be back to explain why i choose this heading.
