What Doesn't Kill You O.o

Hey peeps :D

As a music lover, I’m into many kinds of music and genres.
But today I feel like sharing this one song from Kelly Clarkson, this song sounds cool to me..it called  “What Doesn't Kill You”.

I can say that this song has a deep meaning and it relates to me in some ways. Yeah I love any songs that are meaningful plus songs that can inspire me in life. As a 19 years old girl that will turned 20 in few more lovely months...I think life had thought me many values and morals also many sadness and wicked treats from others.

From this song, it shows that one's can keep going with her/his life even though they are by their own. No doubt its true, but still we need someone to be right besides you when life started to gives you lemons.

The question is who is that ‘someone’?

For me, that ‘someone’ actually consists of three important persons who are my mom, dad and sis. They always there in any moments of my life, when I’m totally down, when I’m sick to death and when I’m too happy in achieving something in life. They never let me forgets who I really am and always influence me to be better in any condition.

Hmm, but when it come to friendships. I think I’m a bit unlucky in it. Haha, I think so. The reason why I’m saying this is because I often end up with a friend that is not really a “friend”. I’m not sure where I get wrong but mostly I experienced a sad ending of a friendship. Honestly saying, by having a best friend with same gender as us it makes it harder to keep on as we have the same qualities that sometimes can create something unpleasant. So don’t be shocked many people out there prefer to be friend with someone who is opposite gender to them.

Yeah I have started my life again and again with many new friends and many memories seem so blurred at the moment. Some of them I totally forgot and some of them are too hurting for me to keep on remembering it. One thing people don’t realised about me is every little cuts in my life that once made me bleeds always turned me to a stronger person.

Once I get hurt, I used it as a drug for me to be much stronger in achieving anything in life. Maybe people think that I am too heartless, but without them knowing, I am the most sensitive person on earth .Lol.

When I love my friends, I will love them to the fullest. But when the love never be appreciated and just the bad sides of me being chase by them, it will totally disappoints me a lot. My motto in friendship, if you really love your friend, your will never intentionally hurt them, and if you do, he or she never was your true friend in heart, just in surface it may. 

Hm, so people, never judge your friend from rumours that you listened to, ask if you have to so no fake arguments will happen that can destroy a long time friendship. Always think before you react or say anything because even a word that cut deeps can last forever even it has been forgiven.

Take your time to listen to this song if you interested to. Enjoy! J

Converting Session =]]

Find Your Passions, And You Will Find The Real You :)





Alhamdulillah all the hard works at last ended. Well this tiny-tiny little educational blog was invented for one of the English subjects named Critical Literacy which I really loved and will always do. I realised something actually that pinched me to come up with this post. In these almost 2 months semester’s holidays, I noticed that I missed to write and write and to keep writing. As this blog is getting dusty as it important works already came to an ending, I wish to make it alive again. Frankly saying I have no idea who will read this ordinary blog of mine, but it’s not the main idea of me to continue writing, I just want to write more to fill and feed my own soul.

So, I decided to call this post as “converting session” as this educational blog of mine will transformed to an ordinary simple life’s diary of a girl named Julia Fiona. It doesn’t means that I will totally forgets this subject, but actually to appreciated the existence of it and to keep it to breaths. I think by keep writing even its not related to critical literacy anymore, but by still using my critical thinking skills to create and write every new articles or we called posts, means that this subject helped me to be better English’s student in real life. This is enough to show that this blog will never be wasted. I hate to take something for granted so this is the other reason why I will keep writing.

Okay enough with the reasons, so back to the business, I don’t know if there will be many changes on the looks of this blog, I don’t think many will be seen though. By the way, I really want to give my big appreciation to Madam Zalinda, she was so into giving my friends and me knowledge even how much hard or tired she was. Thanks for everything.

Hmm, semester 4 ends and here comes the big brother semester 5.Err, sounds scary actually, but honestly I can’t wait to finish with my study here in KPMIM. Many more things to be explored out there, that what we called the real life, the real cruelness and the real aches and maybe some happiness. Just to get all of you informed, this is my first attempt of writing my own blog so no offence with whatever I’m saying here and sorry with any errors in writing, it will be my bad. Every word written here should not be misjudged as long as no names being mentioned.

Holidays this time is extra exciting for me compared to before, because I had spent so much time with my lovelies’ family members and in hope never wants it to end too soon. But this is what we called life, we need to follow the flow right? So I have to bear the reality that these holidays will end in couples of days. I am counting the days, err, not so good in math though, haha, hopes it’s the same to you. If you good at math I will assume you as a genius. Err, Okay that doesn’t makes any sense at all. As I started getting random now, I think better I just stop here.

Happy New Semester Strangers With Some Memories of Mine Out There. I mean friends. Take good care peeps. ;)

#12. Fickle Friends (2),,, How To Spot Them???


Hello my lovely readers. Today I have decided to make an entry under the article fickle friends again and this is my second entry about “frenemies”. This time I want to give out my comment on how to spot the “frenemies” among your so called “best friends”.


1) Friends That Created Drama and Gossip.

            My mommy used to say that once your friend talk about someone to you, then eight times out of ten, they may talking about you to someone else. Talking bad things about others obviously is a bad thing to be practice and so much terrible. These gossips can create non-stop drama in one’s life and surely will give negative impacts to that particular person. Gossip can hurt other people in the long run and at the same time it can make you feel bad about yourself. So, the strong sign to spot your” frenemies” is once you are with them, you find that gossip happens more and more with theirs accompany. A real friend would never waste their time talking about something that will not bring any benefits to you. Plus, a real friend would not allow others to talk bad about you or even anyone else as they always want to defend you from involving in problems.


2) Friends That Are Selfish.

            Next, the biggest sign of our “frenemies” is that they will only put themselves first rather than their friends. They think about their needs and opinions first to be considered by you almost all the time when you are with them. Even though they show too much love and closeness with you, but “frenemies” would never worry to reject your opinions directly or even competing with you in unhealthy ways .Be aware that if your friends just call you when they want or need something only, it proved that they are just your ambivalent friend that just want to make used or take benefits from you and actually not sincerely want to be your best friends. However, a true friend is always there whenever you need them the most, especially when the rough times comes. A true friend always makes effort to call or tend to meet you to see if you are okay. Other than that, a true friend always shows that he or she cares about you; this is what we called true sacrifice not a fake hopes and actions.

Don't Give Fake Hopes,
Just "Frenemies" do it!!!


3) Friends That Hate You To Achieve Something Great.

            Have you ever seen your friend becoming upset or mad right after you achieved something in your life? If yes is the answer, than it shows that you are actually having a “frenemies”. Basically, “frenemies” will always try to fake a smile on your successfulness, but at the same time they will try their best to persuade something negatives to you or insulting you every time you achieved something great without you realise it. In contra with a true friend, they will always be so supportive and shares positive encouragements to you no matter if you are achieving something good or experiencing something that is bad. Even though “frenemies” can be so loving and caring in front of you, it does not mean that they are the “positive energy” of yours, but actually they are your “negative energy” that you should not keep at all.


In short, I can say that this “frenemies” phenomenon cannot be avoided by anyone living in this dramatic world. Just be smart in choosing your friends so that you will not be suffering later. So my dear readers, if you find out any criteria stated above in your current friend, just let them go so that you can lead a better and happier life.

#11. Are you a Romantic or Libertine???...Hurmm...




This article written by Dr. M. Scott Peck is really fun and interesting to be read by us. Before I go further, let me tell all of you the readers a little bit about what this article is all about. Basically, this article is exposing on two types of lovers which are romantic and libertine. A romantic is a lover that will do anything for their partner to show how much they love their partner. For example, they may buy lots of gift and prepared so many surprises for their partner. They give out 100% of their love to their partner and may be hurting a lot because they always forgive and accept the bitter situation in the relationship without thinking about their own selves. They prefer to suffer than break the relationship as their love is too strong. Compared to libertine, this type of lover will put their selves first and then only their partner. Commonly, it will not be hurting much for libertine if they experience breakup in a relationship as they not give the full commitment in the love relationship. Libertine also practices great strategies to keep them feel loved as well as secured in love life.

True love? or True games?
To comment on this article, what I can say is that both types of lovers are true in love, but just the way they carry themselves as a lover are different. As for me, I cannot identify what type of lover I can be as I am not in any relationship at the moment. But to think in a logical way, for me by being both romantic and libertine at the same time will be the best things to be practice in the love life. From my view, by giving much love and at the same time making your own self as the priority compared to your partner is the good way to avoid broken hearted moments. Just imagine, once you make your partner as your priority or we called is as your “everything” it may causes you to forget about your own right and needs that surely will give you a hard moments to go through in your love life.

I have seen many love stories based on my friend’s experiences. What I can say here is that most of them are the “romantic” types and they always feels that they are the cause of the break up between them and their partner even though they are in the right party and they are actually not guilty at all. However, I do have few friends that practice “libertine” type of lover and they seem so happy all the time in their love life. They always can manage their problem with their partners with their own “genius” strategies. But basically, they are not serious enough in their love life with their partner and they prefer to change partner regularly without any regrets or even any heart aches.

Tell me, which one is your TYPE? ;)
In short, I can say that either romantic or libertine, we humans should choose the best when it comes to love as it not something that can be played like a game.Just appreciate the best moments together and never lose the faith. Take care and good luck from me to the happy couples out there. =D

#10. Fickle Friends.. Pals or Foes ????



Have you ever had a friend that love to give you fake hopes? Have you ever experienced a good friend that showered you with loves and at the end leave you alone without any clues? Have you ever feel so stress out because of your so called best friend forever’s behaviour towards you? If the answers are yes, then it means you are experiencing the same cases like I used to experience before and have to admit that I am still experiencing it until now which is I am having loads of ambivalent friends.

Fickle friends’ article is actually explaining on how we humans are actually busy collecting stones without realising that actually we are forgetting about the diamonds .What I tried to say is actually one’s always be happy and appreciated the wrong person and ignored the most valuable friend of them. Plus, this article also makes me realised that actually, our own closest friend can be our worst enemy without we realising it. I am 100% agreed on this article as it only talking about the truth that happens in a friendship.

In friendships, I can say that I always give so much commitment in it and will always try to be a good friend for my friends out there. However, all these time, since I was in the secondary school until now, I always end up meeting “frenemies”. Why this happened? Well, as this article written by Kirsten Weir exposed, this phenomenon of “frenemies” happens as there are so much jealousy, criticisms and rejection from a “frenemies” to their good friend.

Yes it is true that you really do love your friend so much, but in reality, ambivalent friends will never actually really feeling happy for any of your success in life, but they just pretend to be. My motto in life is being sad with the right people is better than being happy with the wrong ones. What I tried to say is it will be better to suffer your misery life or problems with the “real” friend than wasting it on the “fake” friends that actually will never care about your sadness.

My only sister is my best friend since now and than <3
Actually my dear readers, I am so proud of my heart, it has been played, stabbed, cheated, burned and broken, but somehow it still works. Do not you wonder why I still can survive even though I am already broken so badly? The answer is my family. Our family is our strength, a place to get pure love and understanding, and also a place for you to feel safe from the fake world that we are living in. Even how bad your family members are, they will never hurt you, and they will always make you as their priority more than they should be. Just your family left for you to keep on living at the hardest time of your life, they will not run away from their responsibilities, they will as hard as they can to help you to simplified the problems you are having, in contrast with the ambivalent friends of yours, they can giggles nonstop with you and cling with you all day long and when you meet a biggest problem of your life, they will suddenly disappeared from the view of your eyes.

Who does not love their friend right? We never want to lose our friends even though they are our “frenemies”, but one thing for sure is why should we keep the pain of having them in our life as we can let them go and lead a better as well as a happier life? For me, having an ambivalent friend can cause a bad depression, even me myself used to be so stressed with my so called “best friend” as she who I thought the one who I can rely and believe on actually was just using me and tried to drag my spirit down all the time. Nobody wants to hear this, but sometimes, the person you want most is the person you're best without.

Plus, a fake smile, a random laugh, even an occasional smiley face in a text message surely will make an innocent friend fall for these fake attitudes from their fickle friends. Obviously “frenemies” is not a good type of friend that we should keep them nicely with all our efforts. However, if you are too weak to let go of your friendship with your “frenemies”, my advice for you is you should manage and control your friendship as much as you can so it will not be worsen and effects you emotionally or even mentally. Just be honest in whatever you do and in whatever you say. Don't 'keep' things. There's always a way, if our intentions are pure, God is always there to shows His mercy to you.

All in all, do not judge your friend by the things that they have choose to showed to you, keep in mind that what you have seen are just the things that your friends wanted to show to you, but it may remains or change, so if you having the most best friend in your life right now, do not be surprised if that particular person can be your worst foe in future. To my fickle friends, my last word for all of you is that I forgive, but I will never forget.

Just a reminder dearies :)




#9. Movie: The Great Debaters.


Oprah Winfrey and her production have produced a great inspirational movie that based on a true story called “The Great Debaters”. This interesting movie that kept my eyes wide opened when I was watching it actually is about Willey College debate team who participated in the first collegiate interracial debate in the United States. Honestly saying, after I watched this movie, I felt like I just got out from a small box in my mind and my thinking style opened wide. I can feel the courage and braveness in me after watching this heart touching movie.

As a communication student, I felt so lucky to watch this movie as it exposed much on communication skills and how to gain high self-esteem. One thing that most important in this movie is it thought me the meaning of the real teamwork and how to appreciate each members in a group.

This is one of the picture from the 
program that I had joined, even kids joined it.
Based on my experience, I used to participate in a 6 months program that focuses on confident level when I was in form 5. In that program, I learned how to talk in high tones of voice and how to not  to be shy in front of the large audience as I was presenting my finale activity on the stage after the interesting 6 months in front of 1000 audiences in Kuala Lumpur. I had practiced my vocal cues before the finale by screaming many simple words as loud as I can while looking straight to the high tree that standing in front of us with my group members with our strict guider's observation. Actually my group members and I presented the treasure of Kuala Lumpur that we found in many ways of speaking that mixed with some arts. This memory came back to me after I watched the scene where the Willy College debate team shouted as loud as they can toward their teacher that located in a small boat at a lake to get the best in their tones of speaking and get the best for the tournaments later.

Moreover, I was so amazed by many educational quotes that have been exposed in this movie by the actors and the actress. They shared many hidden meanings from the quotes used by them .I have to admit that I used my critical thinking skill a lot when I watched this movie as the words and sentences used were more to old literacy style and so deep in meaning.

For my last word on this movie, I think this movie not only exposing on how to get good communication skills, but it also thought us that each of us living in this world will surely experienced stereotype treatment from others, so it is important for us to be brave and try as hard as we can to achieve triumph and victory in life even no matter what colour your skin is. I love this story so much and I hope to watch it again next time if I get the chance.

Racist people are not allowed here in my blog.Thank You :)

#8. Movie: Animal Farm





Today I’m writing a review on one of the movie that I had watched it in the Language Lab (MPCIM) with my fellow friends of DECOM 4D and our lovely lecturer Madam Zalinda which entitled “Animal Farm”. This movie directed by John Stephenson and this movie of him carried such a big meaning that showed us about the life of animals among human beings in a farm. Before I go further, let me tell you all the readers a little bit about this movie’s story line. Basically, Animal Farm exposed a story of a group of different species of animals living together and seeking for revenge to their owners which are humans. They want to get their right as God’s creatures in this world by make the people realised their mistakes and wicked treats towards them the animals. The animals in the farm have to work even they do not willing to do those works and if they refused, like always they will be beaten and forced to do the heavy works. The saddest part is these animals have to work so much hard even without getting a single piece of foods from the farm’s owners. These animals started to realise that actually they just being used by humans and humans just want the benefits from them, once they got it all, they will throw them animals just like that. So, one day, the animals gathered and decided to rule their life by their own, not by the cruel humans anymore. The pig named Napoleon is the leader of these animal missions to have a free life. Napoleon is the smartest among others but at the same time, he is the most selfish pig. Napoleon misused the trust given to him and started to behave like humans and ignores the other animals’ needs.

After I watched this movie, I just got a great moral value which is we should not be selfish or proud of what we have at the moment as it will not last long and we should not threat others with cruelty and humanity is the best thing to be practice in our life. Furthermore, I think we humans should not abuse animals and treat them badly as they never did anything wrong to us. Honestly I can see that animals somehow are more kind and generous compared to men. They work hard to keep on living and never give up in life even how hard these animals have to face it. I am actually one of the animal lovers, I used to pet more than 30 cats since I was in kindergarten. As far as I seen, these animals always appreciate our kindness and never betrays us with any bad habits, except for their nature as an animal, everybody should know about that and we cannot stop those.


He's rescuing his pet cat and pet duck from floodwater, 
Awhh, such a heart touching moment. isn't it.. :)
It really makes me upsets to see how some human beings nowadays kill and abuse the animal without mercy towards them. Always bear in mind people, without those animals, we human cannot survive living in this world for so long, just think deeply of why I am saying this, then you will understand. In my opinion, as long as we respect and treat each other well doesn’t matter among humans or among other creatures, no problems will occur and we can always lead a happy and peaceful life together.

I give my highest respect to John Stephenson as he gave us opportunity to know more about how animal feels like living with us humans all these while. Animal Farm should never be missed, so just download this movie and watch it, maybe you can watch it with accompany of your pets maybe, if you have one I mean. Just enjoy this meaningful movie peoples.

#7. Men and Women Are Merely Players?..Of Course..


Seriously, he is a talented writer .


The article “Men and Women are merely players” by Robert Greene actually explained that every people is playing their own fixed or gifted roles without they realised that sometimes they need to change that role for their good. This article does attract my attention as it opened the real story of people living in this world that most of them are fakes and just like an actress and actor playing their roles to achieve triumph in their life.

My perspective about people totally changed after I read this article as now I realised that people that shows the innocent and sincerity to us might not as good as they seen because people dare to be fake to act as good as they can to manipulated other’s thinking about their real self and to gain the benefits of life as much as they can .All the people living in this ordinary world doesn’t matter man or woman always want to achieve the highest power and prosperity in life, so in  order to achieve those things, they have to play a new role in life to fool others.

Even though this thing sounds bad, but this is the real things happening around us all this while .Each of us may be happy or may not happy bringing our own roles, but just bear in mind that every roles that we are having at the moment may change without we ourselves realising it. Any intentions of the people around us either they are our friends or not should be consider wisely before we just accepting them without any curiosity because it will kill you slowly later in future.

Let me show you an example from my experience, which I used to trust in my so called best friend too much and shared all my tiny little secrets with this particular person, I felt so sure to believe in her before because of her innocent looks and her politeness that hard for me to find any person that alike her nowadays. However, when it comes to getting the best in life, she forgot that she actually had a friend called “Julia” and ran away from me to get the best in life which mean she left me hanging and find a new friend, even though she used to hate her new friend so much before in past, but she prefers to pretend like she likes her new friend just to get a greater benefits in life compared from what she can get from me. I took this experienced as a tool for me to be stronger and wiser in choosing friends. As saying always says, experience is the best teacher, right? So, for me, by being selfish and changing our characters and roles without considering other's feeling is something unacceptable to be done.
  
Obviously we cannot stop this dilemma of human beings that are just merely players, but we may protect our self from being manipulated or used by them by being aware of this fake people .Never ever try to be anyone else because the best comes from oneself. In summary, to achieve triumph in life, changing roles is not the best solution, but the hard works will be the answer. Keep away the “dramas” friends. J

Believe it or just leave it.. :)

#6. The Jews and their Deceits...What about Hitler...?


The Jews...Can we believe in them?

            The article “The Jews and their Deceits” is the most special article among all for me as it written by the most powerful dictator himself, Adolf Hitler. I bet even only by his name, it can give a goose bump to every each of us. As all of us already know, Hitler is well known by his cruelty and heartless attitudes. In this article published by him, he really expressed how much he hates the Jews. The question marks that linger in my mind had been answered after I done with the reading of this extraordinary article. Now only I know why Hitler despised Jews without limits.

            Hitler called the Jews as “pigs” and “blood sucking vermin” as they cannot be trusted at all. He assumed that the Jews are very good in pretending to get the benefits from German’s rule .Other than that, Hitler hated Jews as he said that these “leaches” just know how to copy his people works and make it as their own that is truly unacceptable by his views.

            One thing that Hitler never realised that he kept condemning others and never knew about the black sides of him. He didn’t have the right to kill any people as he wanted to and to forced people to follow his beliefs .He even said that the Jews always hungry for power, but as the truth, he is the one who clearly didn’t stop chasing the powers and showed his evilness to get the highest power of all time.


           Hitler that loves to make enemies have made me realised one thing in life which is, we should not be selfish to achieve the highest level in our life, we just need some courage and follows the right lines and rules so that we can achieved the success to the fullest without hatred from others towards us. I can say that Hitler is an example of a bad leader and a bad human as he never has any humanity in his actions. Even though this articles explained more on the negatives of the Jews, but it is not that easy for me to just believed in whatever narrated by this cruel and wicked dictator named Hitler.


            From my viewpoint, both sides which are the Jews and Adolf Hitler carried the same mistakes and both of these sides are not showing the best example at all. We should always respect others beliefs and opinions and not to rejecting them directly. Consideration is the best key for every of us to practice in our life to achieved peace instead of chaos. I really hope that I can find an article that shows the opinions of the Jews towards Hitler, so that I can compare that article with this article written by Hitler and get the clearer picture about them. No one loves to be controlled by others as we have our own freedoms, so just be fair in life so you will get the best in everything that you do.

His name will never be forgotten.


#5. The Steve Jobs Nobody Knows...Really ?



Steve <3 Apple ;)
            What can you imagine when I mentioned about Apple brand? I bet many of you out there will think about all the cool computer’s products from Apple that most of the youth out there “craving” for. But have you ever think about the inventor of all those fantastic products from Apple, the unpredictable Steve Jobs? Well the article written by Jeff Goodell entitled ‘The Steve Jobs Nobody Knows’ really caught my eyes as it explained in details about the “real” Steve that I never knew before.

            In the article we can see how Steve being described as a perfectionist, hot tempered and a control freak person. These attitudes of him really make me feels annoyed towards him, but at the same time, my respects to him will never ever change even a bit. For me, even Steve Jobs has many negative attitudes, but I take those bad behaviours of him as a normal thing as we as a human being cannot stop our self from doing any mistakes living in this world, even me myself cannot run away from mistakes. Just imagine, maybe without his perfectionist attitude, Apple will not grown this much and achieved it triumph, right?

            From my viewpoint, Steve Jobs has made easy what people had thought to see difficult, he made lovely what people had been used to see ugly, he made colourful what people had been forced to believe dark and dull, he made light what people had carried heavy by his products. I can say that his inventions cannot ever be competes by any other inventors living in this era, he can be called as a “legend” for me. His inventions like Mac, iPod, iPhone, iPad and iTunes have proved that he is a great visionary and a creative genius of our time.


            The only question in my mind about Steve after I read this article is why he denied his paternity? This is something unacceptable and cruel to be done as a man. However, this is still his personal matter that none of us should interfere. For my last words, I want to give my deepest condolences to the Job’s family. The world has lost one of the diamonds among the stones. Your legacy will live on forever Steve. Thanks for everything that have you contributed for us.


Steve Jobs Memorial Statue shows how much people around the world appreciated him. :)

#4. Movie : The Pianist


“The Pianist”, have you ever watched this tragic movie guys? Well, I just watched this movie few days past with my fellow friends in Cerun’s Hall. Actually this movie was so important to be watched by us, the Decomer’s, because it gave us the real understanding about World War II and the conflicts between the German Nazis and the Jews.

First of all, let me tell you a little bit about this movie. The Pianist is about a Jew whose named Wladyslaw Szpilman which is a pianist for sure that tried to survives as he could when the German Nazis conquered their land which is a Poland country. In this movie you can see the courage of him to keeps on living even in the worst time ever in his whole life. Not only Wladyslaw amazed me with his wonderful piano skills, he also surprised me with his bravery and strong hearted character in facing whatever obstacles standing in front of him.

From the viewpoint of mine which is a girl that never faced any kind of war experiences in my life, the things that happened and experienced by the Jews was totally unacceptable and too much cruel to be describes. Nazis killed and abused without limits or mercy. I wonder the feelings of each person that living in this type of war, I bet it is miserable enough to be said. I can say that the Hitler’s rule on the Jews was over the limits of leadership and it was not a good example of leadership values to be followed by every of us. Yes, we can say that Nazis had  the full power at that time, but by misused the power in a wicked way, it meant nothing more than a disaster for the Jews and not to be forgotten for the world.

It was good to know at the ending of the story that the Jews stood on their feet again and fought for a better life rather than having the tragic rules by the German Nazis for the rest of their life.

This movie really made me appreciated the life that I’m living in right now. Even there are many unwanted events happening all these while in my life that hurts me badly, but I feel so grateful to live in a country that is so peaceful and tranquil. Thanks god for everything.

Peace! Peace! Peace! Even this kid wants it.Think people :)
So for the last word, I can say that I’m so happy to get the chance to watch this interesting and mind blowing movie. Try to watch “The Pianist” because you will never regret it, just believe in my words.”Peace No War People”

#3. Thinking Folly ~~~ STOP thinking? ~~~


Thinking has become a disease? From the article written by Eckhart Toli entitled “The Power of Now” it clarified how thinking is actually makes people lives in a state of apparent separateness, in an insanely complex world of continuous problems and conflict, a world that, reflects the increasing fragmentation of the mind. Other than that, from his viewpoint, human beings actually not using their mind in a wrong way, instead, he assumed that we do not use our mind at all, but it uses us. Is this sounds right to you? Sorry to say that it does not sounds good to my ears.

For me thinking for a human being is such an essential thing in our life. As we know, each of us has many different levels of thinking. Some of the things that we do in our lives, such as breathing, walking, yawning, sneezing and blinking become almost instinctive and we really do not have to think much about them. However, some things require more thought, such as deciding what to eat, what to wear for classes or what to cook for dinner. There are also higher levels of thinking and these include our critical thinking abilities, like what I am doing right now which is deciding either the Toli’s sayings about thinking as a disease is acceptable or not. I have critically thought about his articles before I decided to post an entry about my opinions and comments on his writing. Here it shows that I am not being “possessed” by my own mind but I made the decision by my own clear thinking.

Toli admitted that our mind is like a survival machine,   but it is not at all creative.Do you agree with this statement peoples?Surely the answer should be no as it is a fact that our right-brain operates as a creative side for every persons living in this earth. Without thinking deeply and thinking nonstop I don’t think that I can complete this third article of mine by today. In contrast with Toli, he thought that over thinking can make someone less or not creative at all. Whatever it is, still I am standing on my point that the more I think, the more creative I can be in any field of matters.

As a rule, thinking is a good thing and while some people don’t do it enough, some over-think everything like making the simple to complex, the easy to hard, the minor issue to a major drama and the pain-less, to a pain-full. Yes, I do agree that over thinking can bring many bad effects to someone, but remember that not all of us misused the mind given to us by making their self “over” in thinking. The only issue here is the minority of the “over thinker” that still exist in this world should make themselves awake from being jailed in their own mind so they will not affect the people around them.

In short, I can say that this article by Toli is as interesting as it different in some way and really made me felt eager to argue more and more about this “thinker” issue. Remember that we are the one who decides what is right and what is wrong, always believe in your heart and think smart using your mind to get the best results in your life. Everyone living in this earth will surely die at last in any conditions, alike our mind or brain, it will not last forever too, so used it wisely as it still functioning well to get the best from it.

#2. All The Cool Kids Are Quitting Facebook ..Wow !


Jenna Wortham


“All the cool kids are Quitting Facebook” is an article written by the reporter from New York Times, Jenna Wortham that exposed about how Facebook continued to grown drastically since it first released on net. But one thing that really weird is that the percentage of Facebook’s users that quitting from Facebook is increasing in number nowadays. No doubt that Facebook is something so familiar to every ear of the people living in this whole wide world. This well-established social network used to be one of the most popular and addictive site compared to other social networks. This trend of having Facebook  account which is called “cool” among the people in every level of ages now is changing to the trend of quitting Facebook which is considered cooler. The question mark that lingers in my mind right now is why Facebook was so acceptable at the first place and now it is getting ignored by most of the people around the world.

Well for me, Facebook is a good tool of two way communication when I first registered for it last four years where at that time I was still in high school. I can’t deny the fact that I got into this virtual Facebook world because I felt that I need to follow the newest trend of “facebooking” among teenagers.

Do you have loved ones that live far away? Facebook helps you to stay connected but it also allows you to share your pictures with them of recent family vacations and other things. For grandparents and aunts and uncles, facebook provides a great outlet where they can see their grandkids and nieces and nephews grow up. However, another interesting fact that I willing to share with all of you which actually I am one of those so called “cool” kids as I do not own any facebook account anymore for almost one year time. Why did I deactivate the account? Surely there are tons of reasons behind it. One of the reasons is that I felt unsafe when I was using my facebook account. All the privacy becomes something public and this is so wrong for me.

From my viewpoint, this article wants to make people realised that Facebook is not everything and it is just a social networking site that actually can decreases the trust of people towards each other in some way. Yes it is true that by facebooking you can interacts with your friends, but remember that it is actually creating a virtual life for you that might make you forget about the real world you are living in.

Honestly I fully support Wortham’s article about the changes numbers of Facebook followers as it can make people realised the real phenomenon happening among internet users in this era. Plus, people should know that they should appreciate the life given by God and they should live it to the fullest and not wasting it on the matter of “facebooking”. We should never let go of our strong bonds relationship in life with our friends or family just because of the name of “Facebook”.

In short, I can say that Facebook is not a bad either a good thing to be seen as .It’s actually depends on ones to benefits it or to get disasters from it. We should think critically on every aspect before we involved in anything or even in any virtual world. Hope with the falling numbers of the Facebook account users it will brings more happiness and new environments for them. If there is a better luck, may the society will not experienced any cons from Facebook site anymore. Quitting or continuing is located just on the tips of your fingers, so just make a good choice.



Facebook is closed? Do you think this may happens someday? No one knows :)
