The Script

I decided to take a break from studying Tamadun Islam so I just went online to just watch some videos, take my mind of certain things for a while.

Check out The Script's youtube channel. I decided to watch their music video for the song "the man who can't be moved" and I ended up watching other videos there. In case you don't know, The Script is a band from Ireland. I might buy their album. Still thinking, money is a problem here, I have exceeded my budget for CDs&DVDs. So maybe next year. Hope that I can get a job next year.

Recently read: The sky is crazy: tales from a trolley dolly by Yvonne Lee and For one more day by Mitch Albom. The former is a humorous collection of airplane stories from a former air stewardess and the latter is a book that can make you reflect.

CG dinner at Piccadilly

The heavy rain didn't last night didn't stop my CG from having dinner at Piccadilly, located at Millennium Square at a part of PJ which I don't know where. This is one thing about being a passenger, sometimes you don't know exactly where you're going to. It's like life, sometimes you don't know where it's going to take you.

Anyway, back to Piccadilly. I think the price is reasonable, for about RM15, I had a filling plate of Pattaya Fried rice and a glass of Pink Bell (a mocktail, which is cranberry juice+7-Up). I couldn't finish my food so David help me finished it. The serving was XL, I'm serious. Order one plate and you'll get what I mean.

A mocktail looks easy to make, maybe I'll try to make one someday. I can get the recipe from the internet or get creative and create my own!


Looks like the raining season is back,
Vicky

Carrie Underwood wax figure

My favorite American Idol, Carrie Underwood recently unveiled her wax figure at Madame Tussauds, New York. Read all about it here.

I think she's the most successful American Idol to date, winning many awards and having two successful albums. I have both!

Congratulations Carrie!:)

Watch her latest single, Just a dream music video.

New York is one of the places I want to visit, and now that there's Carrie Underwood's wax figure there, I might start saving money to go.

Carrie Underwood fan,
Vicky

Negative externality

Externality in Malay is externaliti. It is the uncompensated impact of one person's actions on the well-being of a bystander. It may be either positive or negative.

I had a negative externality today. While staying near a school is good especially when you're late or have to stay back for extra classes and don't like the food in school, you can go home for some healthy and delicious home-cook food.

The downside of it is sound pollution. While I was taking a nap in the afternoon today, my sleep was disturbed by cars honking near the school. The authorities really need to put up a no honking sign.

So that's the negative externality. Business Economics test this Wednesday.

More of positive externality please,
Vicky

Career Fair and FAP

My college had career fair yesterday and today, submitted a few resumes, filled up a few application forms. Made some progress in my job-hunting, anyway, if I don't get an internship, I have a back-up plan.

Had FAP test today, was not prepared for it, well I have to do a lot more better in the next test so that I'm able to sit for the finals because in my college, if you fail the coursework, you can't sit for the final exam. Coursework can be in the forms of test, up to the lecturer.
