Lee Dong Wook Shirtless in Blade Man?


Korean Drama of Hotel King is one of a great drama ever I just watched it. Even the last episode already  finished, I guess 7 months ago it is so romantic drama, all about the business and mostly about the management of the hotel that facing a lot of problems.  Hotel King said farewell to the screen with the final episode. Yeay! Actually the problem that occur in this drama are caused by a grudge attitude, the dark past memory, grasping power and many more. Lee Dong Wook’s acting such a great actor! I see, he knows well about his character in this drama. Meanwhile, he is a dream of every woman in this world (maybe). Well, his shirtless in hotel king can 'spellbound' every woman at the screen of laptop and television.  Now, he is acting on his new drama which is Blade Man with shirtless scene. Wow!

Stay With Me Lyrics




Hi everyone! Recently, i just got a mad with this song which is by a talented singer, Sam Smith. Well, I guess I'm like to those that have a husky voice. Its made my mind going to blow to another planet. Hahaha. Just kidding! The lyrics as below :

Guess it's true, I'm not good at a one-night stand
But I still need love 'cause I'm just a man
These nights never seem to go to plan
I don't want you to leave, will you hold my hand?

Oh, won't you stay with me?
'Cause you're all I need
This ain't love it's clear to see
But darling, stay with me

Why am I so emotional?
No it's not a good look, gain some self control
And deep down I know this never works
But you can lay with me so it doesn't hurt

Oh, won't you stay with me?
'Cause you're all I need
This ain't love it's clear to see
But darling, stay with me

Oh, won't you stay with me?
'Cause you're all I need
This ain't love it's clear to see
But darling, stay with me

Oh, won't you stay with me?
'Cause you're all I need
This ain't love it's clear to see
But darling, stay with me

5 Malaysian Drinks You Should Not Miss





Malaysia is known for its great and sumptuous foods including beverages and sweets. Malaysians love drinks with healthy amounts of sugar syrup. Below are the five Malaysia drinks that you shouldn’t miss.

1. Teh Tarik

It can be noted as the country’s national drink. Teh Tarik is a tea, the sweet, bitter and strong kind. It is mixed with lots of condensed milk and the mixture is pulled from one glass to another for numerous times to form a frothy goodness. It can be served cold at drinkable level or iced cold.

2. Kopi O Ais

It is a Malaysian version of iced coffee. It is widely served anywhere and on street markets for some few bucks. Kopi O Ais is usually combined with sweetened condensed milk but you may opt to not have it mixed if you want it more refreshing and not so sugary like dessert.

3. Milo Ais

Most of us are familiar with Milo, the malty breakfast drink. However, Milo isn’t just an ordinary malt beverage in Malaysia; they serve it with a twist. They offer it hot, cold, and ice-cold in cans and juice boxes.

4. Limau Ais

This can be your perfect partner for a hot sunny day in Malaysia. Limau Ais is an iced lime juice prepared with fresh, sweet and tangy lime juice, mixed with water, sugar syrup and ice. If you like lemonade then no doubt you will love limau ais.

5. Nutmeg Juice


Nutmeg is a fruit that is unlikely to be juiced by the rest of the world except Malaysia. There are health benefits that you can get in drinking nutmeg juice; however, it should only be taken twice a week as it can also be bad for your health. This juice when taken in suggested amount will make your blood less likable to mosquitoes.

Oppo Find 7


Do you need an unlocked smartphone? With powerful specs, an impressive screen and a fast charging system? If you answered 'yes' to all of those questions, then the Find 7 just might be worth the plunge. Some four months ago, Oppo, a Chinese phone maker with a surprisingly solid phone lineup, unveiled its flagship phone Find 7. The Find 7 pairs top-notch performance with one of the highest-resolution screens you will find on a mobile today. But is it worth the USD599? Is Oppo really a mobile force to be reckoned with? 

Let's figure it out. While the Find 7's body is 152.6 mm high, 75 mm wide, and has a depth of 9.2 mm, (12% thinner than an average smartphone), with a weight of 171 grams, it's somewhat heavier than average. With its squared-off corners, flat sides and plain black face, the whole thing is almost unapologetically monolithic. The only real concession to the notions of grippability and comfort is the gently curving (and removable!) backplate. Before we go further, there is one thing that's clear: Smartphone displays don't get much sharper than this!

Financial Management Should Be Taught In School





There’s a saying that says, money makes the world go round. Hate to point out the obvious, but it is true. In this new era, money is what it takes for the society to keep on surviving, well, except for having happiness and religion etc, but that is beside the point. The point here is that, the world is a competition and we need to educate ourselves, from young, on how to keep our financial balance on stable platform.  Thus, the Education Ministry should take note on some of the reasons why they financial education should be taught at school, namely, instilling a good financial management from a young age, reducing individual financial crises in the future and creating an economic savvy society.

         I do agree that parents should carry a bigger role in teaching their children on things such as saving money and not spend on unnecessary things, but it is also the government’s role in further educating on the theories of having good financial management. It is vital as it actually prepares the future generation to be more aware of the harsh reality. Moreover, when we give them an education on managing their finances, it will help them in the future in terms of having the cash for further to secondary or tertiary education. Therefore, for the betterment of the future generation, is it ideal to educate them at school about having a good financial management.

        Day in, day out, we see news on young adults has gone into bankruptcy. At the start of their young life, they have negative balance in their bank account and still owing. Having rents to pay, bills to settle, mouth to feed, etc, bankruptcy would be the last thing anyone could ever want. This is an issue we would not want our generations to have. A way to avoid this is by training them from small the benefits of saving and managing their money because at the end of the day, they will be the one who is going to enjoy that. By doing this, it will therefore reduce individual financial crises and simultaneously creating a happy living condition.

Creating an economic savvy society does not mean society that gets involved in stock market, investment or the index. But it is a society that is capable to support their respective families and still have enough money for the future and also is able to give back to society and do well.  It also means that the society is able to comprehend and understand on the nation’s current economic background. By grasping the financial knowledge, it leads to a society that does not spend unnecessarily and therefore developing a better country.  Thus, the significance of educating young children on financial is obvious as it would benefit the advancement of the country.

        To conclude, before understanding the whole concept of financial management, it is a good idea for us to come hand in hand and educate the younger generations on having savings and such. The need to introduce these types of knowledge to them not only will widen their mind but also teach them to be prepared for the unknown future. It is hoped that the Ministry of Education take this proposal to action in order to foster a broader minded generation that will be the pride and forefront of the nation.

Blended Movie Synopsis



Who would have thought that we’re actually going to bump into our blind date partner after a disastrous date with him or her while vacationing in South Africa?  Let’s catch "Blended" starring Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore to see how things escalate after that date. The synopsis as below :

Synopsis: After a disastrous blind date, single parents Lauren (Drew Barrymore) and Jim (Adam Sandler) agree on only one thing: they never want to see each other again.  But when they each sign up separately for a fabulous family vacation with their kids, they are all stuck sharing a suite at a luxurious African safari resort for a week.

“Blended” marks the third collaboration between stars Sandler and Barrymore, following their successful onscreen pairings in the hit romantic comedies “The Wedding SIger” and  “50 First Dates.”

The film also stars Wendi McLendon-Covey (“Bridesmaids”) as Lauren’s best friend, Jen, and Joel McHale (TV’s “Community”) as her unreliable ex-husband, Mark.  Kevin Nealon (“Weeds”) and Jessica Lowe (funnyordie’s “RobotDown”) star as Eddy and Ginger, an overly romantic couple who are also vacationing at the resort, and Terry Crews (“The Expendables 2”) stars as the resort’s singing host. Dan Patrick (ESPN SportsCenter) appears as Jim’s boss, Dick; and Shaquille O’Neal as his coworker, Doug.

Playing Jim’s three daughters are Bella Thorne (Disney Channel’s “Shake it Up”), Emma Fuhrmann and Alyvia Alyn Lind.  Kyle Red Silverstein and Braxton Beckham appear as Lauren’s two sons.

“Blended” was directed by Frank Coraci, who previously collaborated with Sandler and Barrymore on “The Wedding Singer” and also directed Sandler in the hit comedies “The Waterboy” and “Click.”  The screenplay is by Ivan Menchell & Clare Sera.   The film was produced by Mike Karz, Adam Sandler and Jack Giarraputo, with Barry Bernardi, Josie Rosen, Tim Herlihy, Allen Covert and Steven Koren serving as executive producers.

Collaborating with Coraci behind the scenes were director of photography Julio Macat (“Pitch Perfect”), production designer Perry Andelin Blake (“The Wedding Singer,” “Here Comes the Boom”), editor Tom Costain (“Grown Ups”) and costume designer Christine Wada (“Bridesmaids”).   The music was composed by Rupert Gregson-Williams.



Aquaretro In Putrajaya



School Holiday Breaks just around the corner. The parents should spend time with their children. Recently, when I read The Star newspaper, I found the article about Aquaretro in Putrajaya. So unique, vintage and 'chill' environment when  I put myself at there. Please take note it was my imagination. The article as below :

" Visitors to Putrajaya can add boating to their list of fun activitites that they can do with their family and friends. Aquaretro is a new attraction at the Putrajaya Lake Cruise in Precint 1, where visitors can navigate the boat themselves. It is easy to navigate the boat with one simple button to turn the power on and off. Recreational boaters only need to know how to turn the steering wheel. The navigation is easy enough that even children can try their hand at steering the boat.

Each visitor will be given a life jacket and a short briefing by the boat operator before cruising on the largest man-made lake in Putrajaya for 40 minutes. The boat can travel less than five miles per hour or 1.5 knots. Model like a classic car, Aquaretro  is fast becoming a favourite among the visitors to Putrajaya.  The boat service began operations in February. The boat designs were patented in Miami, Florida and installed in Beijing, China. The boat  is environmental-friendly because it uses battery power. It needs to be charged for 9 hours.  Each boat can operate for six hours if each trip takes 40 minutes.

It is a fun activity that both adults and children can enjoy. The rates are RM50 per boat (with Mykad) and RM100 (without Mykad) for 40 minutes. One boat can fit four adults. The boat services operates from 10am to 7.15pm (Monday to Thursday) and 10am to 10pm (Friday to Sunday). For details , kindly visit www.facebook.com/aquaretro. "

6 Things Every Guy Wants Their Girl To Know About Football




The football World Cup is coming and seeing how the male brigade goes crazy and their female counterparts feel left out. So, I thought it would be a good idea to give the girls a crash-course in all that is there to know about football and how not to embarrass themselves.

  • One team consists of 11 players INCLUDING the goalkeeper. Not 10, not 12 and not 13.
  • There's only FOUR positions available in a team namely goalkeeper, defender, midfielder and striker...or forward
  • One game consists of two halves, the first half and the second half. Each half last for 45 minutes. So, one football game or two halves equal to 90 minutes. Do the math.
  • A goal is worth 1 point. There's no 3 points in football like in basketball. But wait, I bet girls don't even know there's 3 points in basketball, right? Just kidding
  • When a player manages to score 3 goals in one game, we call it a HAT-TRICK. Well, not the one that the magicians usually do on stage.
  • World Cup and European Championship only happen ONCE in four years, just like the Olympics and the Commonwealth Games

9 Things Girls Can Do Under 1 Minute For A Better Day




These 1 minute routines may just be the thing you need to make your day better!

  1. Look at something awe-inspiring - this can help you feel happier and even enhance your quality of life. By looking at something awe-inspiring such as the Grand Canyon for a few seconds is enough to help you feel happier and even enhance your quality of life, says a recent study from Stanford University.                                                                                            
  2. Make your bed - covering up the place where you sleep with a comforter can help keep allergy-inducing critters and particles out. Dust mites and small bugs love getting under your covers as much as you do, so covering up the place where you sleep with a comforter can help keep allergy-inducing critters and particles out.                                                                                                                      
  3. Record your blessings - Gratitude is a health-promoting emotion that can improve your quality of sleep.                                                                                                                                                  
  4. Touch your toes and hold for a minute - It opens up your hip joints, which is where most people store tension.
                                                                              
  5. Brush your tongue - The back of the tongue is a popular hangout for bacteria and other germs that can give you bad breath.

  6. Sniff a lemon, basil or lavendar - These scents have been found to lower stress.
  7. Play some music while you're getting dressed - kick-starting your morning with some music will get you in a good mood.
  8. Drink ice-cold water - it increases your metabolism and helps you feel more awake.

  9. Give your beautiful eyes a break - for every 20 minutes you spend on the computer, glance away from the screen for at least 20 seconds by looking at something 20 feet away.

Adidas ZX750



Classics are essentially the snake eating its own tail, an Ouroboros sans the morality tale of repetition fatigue. This is why great fiction is often time repeated, fashion motifs recur every new decade, and popular series of kicks come in seasonal cycles – we simply demand that they are to be immortalised. For good reasons, we can’t imagine the streetwear scene without the Adidas ZX series.

Having debuted since 1984, the model has seen many redesigns and add-ons to its original template. The current SS14 iteration is a perfect mix of past, present, and future, retaining the ZX’s celebrated shape while updating it to modern taste. This new collection features an even bolder infusion of tropical neon and a rich, earthy colour palette.

Adidas Originals uses a combination of polyester mesh and polypag foam for the brand new Adidas ZX700′s uppers with synthetic suede on the reinforcement panels. Style wise, the ZX700 features a bold two-tone colourway contrasted with the three-stripe mark, heel-tab and midsole accents, and the introduction of reflective inserts on the heel and toebox to this SS14 season.

Meanwhile, the Adidas ZX750 continues this season’s focus on Adidas running shoes of yesteryear. With its modern touches, the ZX750 is bound to make a splash with an aggressive style, sophisticated leather build, eye-catching colours and slightly jagged sole that shouts out for attention no matter where style and fitness beckons.

The ZX700 and ZX750 retail at MYR340 for both men and women. The range can be found at the following adidas Originals Concept Stores:
• Adidas Originals Midvalley (Ground Floor)
• Adidas Originals Pavilion (Level 4)
• Adidas Originals KLCC (Level 3)
• Adidas Originals Berjaya Times Square (Ground Floor)
• Adidas Originals 1 Borneo


Also available in stores are the ZX100, ZX630, ZX710, ZX8000 and ZX850 at all Adidas Originals Concept Stores and select stockists across Malaysia.

X-Men: Days of Future Past



If you ever wondered if there was a sequel to the X-Men trilogy in 2006, our favourite mutants are back with the sequel to both X-Men: The Last Stand AND X-Men: First Class! Better yet, they will be battling it out amongst themselves. How cool is that? So, to determine either this movie is so bombastic or not, you guys can vote and give the star after watched this movie on 22 May 2014.

Synopsis :

The ultimate X-Men ensemble fights a war for the survival of the species across two time periods in X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST. The beloved characters from the original “X-Men” film trilogy join forces with their younger selves from “X-Men: First Class,” in an epic battle that must change the past – to save our future.  Bryan Singer, the visionary director who brought us the original X-Men movies, says Days of Future Past will take viewers on an emotional ride. 
“The stakes are high, not just for the world and the future but also the stakes of some of the characters,” says the director. 

Clearly there was enormous fragmentation between the characters that happened at the end of First Class. That left the characters on a certain path. This movie will show you where those paths lead.

What is rotavirus?




Rotavirus is the leading cause of severe diarrhoea in infants and young children. Rotavirus infects and damages the cells of thesmall intestine leading to gastroenteritis – rotavirus is the main cause of severe, dehydrating diarrhoea in young children. Rotavirus is a democratic virus because every child, rich or poor, may be infected in the first few years of life. Even in places with clean water and good sanitation, children can be infected. Almost all children will have been infected with rotavirus by the time they reach 5 years. A study indicated that 86.1% of rotavirus gastroenteritis cases occur in children aged between 3 and 35 months

How is diarrhoea caused by rotavirus different from diarrhoea caused by other infections?

It is often hard to tell the difference as the symptoms are likely to appear the same. However, the symptoms of rotavirus infection are often more severe than other viral and non-specific causes of diarrhoea.9 Symptoms may include:

  • vomiting and may last up to 8 days
  • severe watery diarrhoea (up to > 10 episodes a day)
  • abdominal pain
  • fever
Watery diarrhoea & vomiting from rotavirus infection may lead to dehydration (loss of body fluid). Untreated severe dehydration can cause serious health problems such as organ damage, shock, or coma (a sleeplike state in which a person is not conscious)

Reasons Why Money Was Introduced In the Economy

In developed market economy, all the exchanges involved in distributing the goods and services produced in “the real world economy” require the use of money as a medium of exchange. Therefore we cannot practice barter system now. Can you think of a few reasons why this is so? We cannot practice barter system now due to the following reasons:

1. Barter system is inefficient and cannot be practiced in a more complex economic system like we now

2.  Barter system failed to provide the “double coincidence of wants”, which means that a person must not only establish contact with someone who has the same but the opposite wants.  This means that a person who wishes to exchange a book for a magazine must find someone else that has a magazine. They must also agree that the book and magazine are have an equal value.

3. The barter system wasted time and energy in searching the market or to find a person in order to establish the double coincidence of wants.

4. The above process of searching for double coincidence of wants results in an unnecessary search costs or transactions costs.

5. Barter system prevents the development of specialization decision of labor and the large-scale production which provide the foundation for the productive efficiency and range of consumer choice available in a modern monetary economy.

Stay Fit



In this post I’m wanted to be your consultant physical trainer since I read an article about stay healthy makes you be powerful. I’m just guessing about the title since there is no title about it. Many of us do not get the kind of day-to-day physical activity that we need to stay fit. 

Conversely, we become unfit because of lack exercises during the free time that we have. Physical activity means any movement of the body that is made by skeletal muscles and requires energy to accomplish. It also means the ability to do physical activities that can be measured by determining one’s endurance, power and flexibility. Staying fit is a great bonus to life and can lead you become a happier and healthier person.

By staying fit and healthy, you not only look and feel better, but you can decrease the chances of getting health problem like diabetes, heart attack, hypertension and high cholesterol later on in life. There are four types of exercises that you can do that I’m taken from the article that I have read:

1. Endurance

These exercise boost heart rate and breathing over a period of time. They are good for the heart,lungs, and circulation. They also help prevent or delay some diseases. For instance are walking, swimming, running and many more activities done without stopping for a period of time.

2. Strength training

Some examples are weight training or body weight exercises such as push-ups or pull ups. Lifting weights make older adults strong enough to do what they need to do and like to do. I’m strongly agreed with it. It is absolutely true!

3. Balance

These exercises help prevent falls, a major cause of disability in older adults. Try practicing balancing on one foot trying to increase the length of time one is able to do with it over time, and then add some movements of the eyes or hands to make it more difficult.

4. Stretching

Some examples are flexibility exercises, Yoga, Tai Chi, Pilates, anything that makes you try to increase the range of motion of a joint. These exercising will help keep the body limber and flexible (be sure you have a sturdy chair to grab on to).

There are many helpful strategies to keep fit and stay healthy that can be done with dedication and ambition. “Exercising, Maintaining a Balanced Diet, Gaining Willpower, and Motivation”. Let’s do it!
