It's been a long while I didn't dream. Now I dream again.

Well, it's not dream that everyone talks about....where you wanna go in your future.
It's just a simple dream that everyone gets every night.

Since F6 AGAIN  I hardly can dream.
Because was too tired after hours of studying and completing homework.
That time was really.........exhausted that you hardly can dream for every night.

Now....no more homework no more exam.....
I dream every night.

And last night, = =zzz got a weird dream.
Well, dreams are always weird, right?

Hmmm....I guess I miss my classmates BOTH ARANG AND BATU LINTANG too much....
so I dream bout them....

but the weird thing is....the people inside the dream arent those very close to me.
The "main character" is Chen How Wui.  DID I SPELL IT WRONG?


hmmm.......i cant really remember all of the story....
I think it kinda starts with Me riding a bike to school....
and there's an underground parking lot.
and.....= =zzz if this really happen in our real life, KTA them sure complain like shit....
cuz, students are putting their bags in the parking lot too....it's like, we're required to do that.

after parking my bike, How Wui was there putting his bag down just beside my bike,
I think I asked him if he needs me to bring him home. In that dream, it seems like i'm the person that owes provide service to send people home.
Well...Yes, he replied...and he said something else which i can't remember clearly.
I think it's something about he'll be late after class cuz got sth to deal with / needs to be settled.

OK, then we went to class.....
can't really remember what happened in the middle....or the dream just skipped to when it's time to go home.
And i was looking for How Wui........
Afternoon session already started lessons.....
So i was with my bike from the parking lot to dunno which floor to find for How Wui....
= =zzz and the bike just turned into bicycle.
And that school turned into SMK JALAN ARANG.
I was in the first floor of that school......

And when I was searching for How Wui, at one of the corner where i nid to turn right,
I saw another bicycle. and then I saw my f6 Biology teacher, Pn. Wong.
And heard some people (I think they are teachers) chatting bout Pn. Wong riding bicycle from class to class....it's faster.
= =".........but that sounds normal to me when I was in that dream.
And halfway riding that bicycle, I suddenly feel weird, cuz why I'm moving my legs, but not my hands???
so I tried moving my hands, to make the "voooongg vooooong" sound....

then I went  down to the parking lot again.....
then I saw How Wui....
and HE said he's waiting for someone else, so ok......i'll wait for him.

then......I woke up.........= =zzz

This one still ok.....and i think i saw PAo Sing with Ah Fook at the parking lot.
I think Wui Siong was there too....

There's another dream....I think it's before that school dream...

IT's.....with my eldest and youngest sister....plus Elyssa....
= =zzz

My sis ask me to buy milk tea. My youngest sis also want. So do I.
So I went to order. 3 different milk teas.
Then after that counter girl tell me the price, I found out I got no money, then I asked my youngest sis, who followed me to order the teas, to get money from my eldest sis.
Then she just throw me my eldest sis's money (all from her wallet)...and that starts the messy part.
The money got other countries' money.
I was trying to find for Malaysian Ringgit.
= =zzz And i saw one RM 10, i quickly pull out.
then i nid another RM 10, i saw one piece that looks similar to RM 10, so i pulled it out without hesitation.
but then....I saw the number 16 000.....at first i ignored the 000, i just noticed the 16.....
= =zzz 16????? i keep thinking.....since when RM got 16?????
but I didn't think much cuz i already throw the money to that girl.
and........
I actually don't know how much I've ordered, I checked through the menu again,
It's RM 8 + RM 8 + RM 6.   AHAHA.GOOD MEMORY!
So totally RM 22.
and that girl i think she also tot the 16 is RM 10, she told me the amount i paid wasn't enough yet.
I was still confused and wanted to pull out my money.
But then i stopped realising i gave her RM 26 already, she should find me change.
then she's like "Oh, stupid me"....then she find me back 80sen......
I was like "thank you".......EH?!
huh???? huh??????!!!! HUH??!?!!!!!
erm...then i told her there's some mistake, but then there came some other customers.....
they started to order drinks....= =zzz they ignore me.
but i won't give up.
So i told her there's mistake.
Then she's like "ok....sorry." and wanted to pull out the money. but with wrong amount again.
So i said "Erm, i think u give me back the 16 I give u the exact amount"
then she can't understand and refuse to give me back the 16....
I tried hardly to let her understand that I want to take back that 16 cuz it's a weird 16 and i'll give her another RM 12......
And she got confused that makes me kinda mad......
and she keep refusing to give back that 16.
I keep telling her that I want to take that 16 to bank to ask why there's a 16? cuz RM got no 16.RIDICULOUS ME
but she's just very stubborn and don't want to give back the 16.

then I was like entering into the counter already....
then That girl called Elyssa out. It seems like Elyssa was working there....= ="
Elyssa was like that girl, refuse to return that 16....
i was like...."duh, i take back that weird 16 and give u another 12 that makes the exact amount with 80cent i give back to u....why u guys refuse to?"
but then....she showed me that they already put the money into something like pockets that were sticked on a board.....
then I quickly snapped that thing and take out my 16.
then.....I found that the money was cut......IT'S DESTROYED!!!!!!!
that counter girl cut it into shaped that I've no idea wad is that.....and she's kinda like that shape.
And i was like.........HOW CAN YOU DO THIS TO MONEY?!
cuz u know, in real life, if u destroy a money, it's a kind of kesalahan. needs to get into jail if i'm not mistaken.

Then i was there trying to save the money....thinking bout various ways to save that piece of money....and i also dunno why so stubborn just to get back that money.... = =zzzz

and other than that 16, i found another 13.
and realise there's 000 behind......
after i wake up ....i think back about that dream.........
asking "is the Vietnamese money????????"........................................
probably.......
and I dun understand why my eldest sis wallet is so messy???? all the money were mixed up....
and It's a little bit like my eldest sis real wallet....HAHA!!!!
i beh tahan if the wallet is messy......
esp when there's money from different countries. just separate them lah.....
= =zzz

tired.....that dream makes me tired enuf.....luckily it's before How Wui's story....
cuz that one is more relaxing.........

Way to Singapore? I'm not sure.

T_T.......

first my friend who got 4.00 for STPM told me that she'd informed to go for an interview for ASEAN undergraduate scholarship.

and me, i got none.
which means.......there's no hope for scholarship. BUT I STILL HOPE FOR MIRACLE.
and that scholarship is automatically applied when u apply for NUS.

so at the same time....
the probability of me being accepted by NUS is....lower.

I tried to let myself not to think too much.
but days after days....
I seems like having mental problem.......

I can't stop worrying bout it........

now, my friend, the same one, told me that her application outcome is out.
and mine.......no news yet.

the probability goes lower......

but still i'm hoping for it.
I'm still praying.

yeah.......things haven't come to its end yet.
I'm too worried about it.
我承认我非常急性子。

I hardly can let myself cool down........
cuz I feel unsecure when i can't smell what is coming!!!!
IT's like U're in a big sea....
ur foot step nothing......
ur hand grab nothing....
you can't breath...........
you can't see...............


Now i got no mood for other things.
I can't even help my mum to prepare meals.
My friend this morning invite me to go KL together on june.
I rejected. partly is because that time should be the time i prepare everything for university though i still got no idea which uni i'm entering.
another reason is I got no mood to think about it.
And there's a promise to sleep over together with my friend Elyssa.
I got no mood....to think about it now. but i wont break the promise don't worry.

Plus, She'd just tagged me in a post in Facebook, for a concert thingy i think. something about choir.
this saturday nite. asking if i wanna go.
Sincerely, i got no mood.
Unless tomorrow Singapore send me a letter that i've been accepted then i'll immediately say Yes to everything........................erm.....things that's not beyond my limit.


Well.....
bless me.........T_T..........................................
bless you too..................................................

Jogging...? nah...i'm just walking fast.

This morning....
while some of my friends are kinda nervous and are going for interview......
I'm going to the garden at Hui Sing together with my parents.

guess i'm the only kid in this family that quite often follows my parents for exercising + breakfast.

= =zzz know what?
my mum is a monster.......

after so many years.....

i found that my mum still look the same.
maybe she dyed her hair for sometimes so that makes her look the same.
but still her face......not much wrinkles like ppl owes say

the older u get the more wrinkles u get.
I DIDN'T SEE THAT ON MY MUM!!!!!!

maybe still not the time yet.......o.O

and this morning.....= =zzz
my mum walk FASTER.....it's MUCH FASTER THAN ME!!!!!

i keep ps in my heart : " She's rushing to where?! = =zzzz"
and i was chasing after her (by walking fast)....and i still can't.

i was nearly dead when doing that....
so i gave up at last.......

gila.......
my mum is really gila.........

i'm older than her.
maybe she did a lot of housework and I always just sit in front of computer and tv.....

= =zzz

young people nowadays.......

tsk tsk tsk.....
gonna beware.

cuz we have to know and understand we'll get a lot of trouble if we're lack of exercises...
diseases and troublesome sickness will visit us very often if we didn't exercise enough.

not enough time to exercise is just a lame excuse...

i know u know we know~~~~~
it's hard to get rid of the laziness.....
and our stamina is not strong enough.....so we get tired very easily.
run run a while say tired.....
So that's why we have to exercise more.
to built a strong stamina.

fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
tired......
better get a good plan for my uni life.
I don't want to be one of those young uni students that get a lot of so called old-ppl-disease.
Old people have been laughing at us.
Doctors and Nutritionists have been using those sick and "Fragile" uni students as example in their talk.

MAN! we have to improve ourselves!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
no more lame excuse......
but do it slowly lah~~~~~ doesn't need to force ourselves to exercise every hour.
just don't get ourselves not exercising for more than one month....worse half a year....worst more than one year.


Oh yeah....today in kopitiam having breakfast with parents.
My dad met his friend. I think this friend he knew him since secondary school?
And i think he's an engineer.

They first talked about his eyes....gonna go for another operation.
= =zzz sth to do with the thin layer thingy (forgot wad name liao....learnt it in f3...it's too far away i cant remember...sth like the contact lens)....
he did his first operation and kena langgar by balangsat (dunno English is wad...)....the thin layer thing dropped out....
he went back to his doctor....he needs another operation again.
He said that's horrible.....but bobien.

I realise.....if u dun wan to get into troubles....sth like operation (nid to spend money and time...plus very kinteo during operation. wad if the operation fail lagi??? CHAM!)
pls do take very good care of yourself...... BONG SING KOCK! TALKING BOUT U AR!
A lot of uni students burn midnite oil just to finish reading a chapter or complete their assignment.....

think of it...
even if u can pass with excellent results...u graduate as an EXCELLENT student.
YOU ARE A BRILLIANT ONE!
but u spoilt ur liver, your eyes....
your muscles are weak that they cannot support you.
lately you got bones problem.

you just win a certificate and lose your entire life.
worth it?

nope.......

and I do believe if you have enough sleep, eat well, do enough exercises, you'll have a fresh mind.
you'll think better.
You can do better.
OF course you can score better.
You even have enough semangat to listen carefully in your class....
even though your lecturer speak something you hardly can understand (due to their weird pronounciation)
You still can learn something.

yes...it's hard to do them perfectly.
even myself also wanna fall asleep when i attend some classes during f6 time.
but try to do them good.
not to let yourself get killed by your own excuses.

always try to be the best in everything you can.
I think this baru is the brilliant one.people only very good in academic doesnt mean they're really brilliant one.
they can study well answer well but they cant really earn money.
that's useless pun.

extra : Everyone has their own good and bad sides. Never magnify your bad sides and ignore your good one.
Blaming yourself being so lame is extremely stupid. IF you don't love yourself, how the others love you?
IF you think you're stupid and useless, how the others think you're clever? Be Confident enough but not too over. And now when to get satisfied. never ask for more.

宫崎骏---移动城堡

......移动城堡......

A....anime / cartoon that i watched years ago.

A Japanese cartoon.

By 宫崎骏

That author got a lot of products and this is one of them, which i think the main male character is the most handsome one. AHAHAHA!!!!! =p

An his drawing is very in details that makes me feel AWESOME! salute salute

This is the main thing in the story. The castle. Howl's castle.

It's controlled by a fire......with Howl's heart.

So actually it's controlled by Howl's magic.

This castle can even fly. COOL

So this is it. The story starts with this castle moving around.

Those tiny white things on the ground are sheeps.

Ok....This is the troublesome and "sticky" person that let Howl met the female main character.

That fatty stuff was chasing Howl by summoning a lot of sticky creatures.

Howl was escaping and met this girl and escape together with her.

She got no idea what was happening and then suddenly they fly!

owh man....how i wish there's a handsome guy like him do the same thing to me...ahem....i'm just dreaming about silly thing. IGNORE ME.

After met Howl, back to her shop (that sells hats)...

She met that fatty witch.

And that fatty women turned her into an old lady.

and..........the curse....she can't tell anybody about this.

These made her get mad.

She can't stay....so she decided to leave.

Then...the second chance she met with Howl again.

woohoo~~~~

Handsome rite??? ahahaha!!!!!

She met this thing during her ...her.....her....way escaping from where she lives.

because she cannot let people who know her to see her as in an old lady.

Can't really remember. I think she helped this thing.

And this thing followed her. way to Howl's castle.

So here it is. Howl's castle.

She wants to get a job here.

She actually forced the castle to hire her as cleaner? something like that.

which actually the castle doesn't need that.

I forgot how she get in. Very easy. and Stubborn of her.

inside the castle.

The.....ground floor? haha.....

That's Howl when he went back to his castle after his job.

That cute little kid is someone in the castle helps to watch over the castle i guess????

and the round thing on the right top of the door with 4 colours,

it's kinda like the.....erm....

hmmm....it's....when Howl wants to go ...let say place A, the round thing will spin and stop at certain colour with the black arrow thingy pointing at it.

When Howl is going to place B, the round thing will spin and stop at another colour.

That's the great place about Howl's castle.

The moving castle isn't only mean it's moving....it also means....

at the same time, it's at different places.

Another saying is....u can just simply go to anywhere just by changing the colour of that round thing.

Oh yeah.....I love watching the parts where the Sophie (female main character) cleans the castle.

It's very dirty and messy.

And I love the fire that controls the whole castle.

He always got no idea how to let Sophie listen to him.

Haha......Sophie is really very stubborn.

It's funny when She get mad that she can't tell what happened to her when that little boy asked her.

Owh....here here!!! The most funny part....and weird....

Because of Sophie cleans everything in the castle.

She had rearranged everything in Howl's toilet.

The thing is....Howl was using magic to wash himself.

And his blonde / golden hair was from magic he used.

Because Sophie had rearranged the things he used, somehow the procedure to wash his hair ( i guess should be like this) was not correct due to the wrong position of those potions....

Howl got his hair turned black.

And he was running out from his bathroom and shouted at Sophie.

He was very upset that he's no more beautiful......

and weird thing happened....

Awh!!!! that scene...go watch urself....u can see his butt...AHAHA

After everything was settled.....Howl was resting in his room....

whoa....amazed by the author's drawing....

He's really good in complex things.SALUTE!

Well, he was telling her that he is actually a coward.

His room was so complicated with all magic things just to be aware of that fatty sticky women.

Ha....prince! But i also like the look after he lost his blonde hair.

AND I JUST KNOW THAT HIS VOICE ACTOR IS Takuya Kimura 木村 拓哉!!!! 

WHAT?!

---ok...let me continue---

This one.....

The Queen invited Howl and that fatty women.

But Howl didn't dare to go, he asked the girl to go for him and pretend as his mother.

Howl told Sophie that he will pretend as something else to be with her, when it's time, he'll appear.

Well, she starts wondering what Howl will be in? and then she met the dog.

She thought that dog was Howl, but it actually was sent by the Queen to take Sophie to her place.

And in the Queen's place, the fatty women was punished.

Her magic was all absorbed, and turned into an old lady.

And for Sophie, in the middle of talking to the Queen, she turned young just for a moment without herself realising it.

The Queen found out about it and knew that Sophie loves Howl.

Well, go and watch it you'll know what happened.

Howl appeared at the end of their conversation and escaped with Sophie.

The Queen tried to attack them.

Howl and Sophie were separated cuz Howl wanted to let the soldiers sent by Queen not to hurt Sophie.

He let Sophie back to the castle to settle everything.

Sophie was kind-hearted that she let that fatty women who had turned into an old lady to stay with them in the castle.

But then the old lady still craved for Howl's heart...and she finally found out Howl's heart is with the fire.

She took it.

And that ruins everything.

The castle collapsed.

But not at all....still left a little bit of woods that they still can stand on it.

Sophie at last finally can let that old lady to return the heart.

The heart then can control back the castle, but very weak.

This is when Sophie went to find Howl.

And found out something related to when Howl was small.

Then she found Howl in monster look. (not really)

Howl was actually unconscious.

But then because of Sophie...He's somehow awake.

When Howl awake, turned back into human.

Story coming to end.

This is the tulip Sophie met.

He was under spell too.

Now the spell was gone and he turned back to a prince.

Another cute prince!

He thanks Sophie for being so helpful and kind-hearted.

He wants to marry Sophie as her Queen.

But you know i know everyone knows~~~

Sophie belongs to Howl.....oh hohoho....

Sophie rejected him. And that Prince wasn't upset too lah...

He's not really in love with Sophie.

Just want to thank her.

Then he left.

And let that two happily ever after~~~~~

Errr....this is not the final look of that castle.

It has another fresh look and fly on the sky.

The 4th pic up there....

That's how it looks like after It had been ruined by that fatty old lady.

Well.....it's really a nice story.

I like 宫崎骏 products.

There's still some I haven't watch before.

But i've watched some of them....

really great and cool.

This is the one that i admire the most as his drawing was so AWESOME.

and there's another one ---> 千与千寻.

The drawing was kinda similar but it's more advanced.

Guess the author advanced his tools....

esp the computer programs.

This two cartoon i've been watching for several times.

REALLY LOVE THEM!

I strongly recommend this two.

There's still other products of him that are great.

You can go search for it.

=D

Time to go University

= =zzzz

After get my result.....
next question : Where to go???


apply this and that....
haiz....tired man!

lagi mafan de is the UPU ppl dun hiu me. let my problem unsolved for more than one month!!!

damn !

luckily during that time Pilihan Raya sedang dijalankan.
or else, i won't get any help to solve my problem.
a simple problem that can be solved just by  a few minutes.
they made me waited for more than one month.
= =zzz

but still....
i aim for Singapore.
NUS.
and i only apply for this. no NTU.
My parents said me stupid just to apply for NUS....

- -zzz i feel insecure bout NTU mah~~~~ i dunno why also.


then follow friend to apply for Australia.
applied for Sydney and Melbourne.

and....
i was accepted.
now just wait me sit for IELTS and everything can be done and i can fly to there.

the problem is.........
it's far.
it's expensive.
my English isn't that good. i'll get bullied for sure.
and IELTS is expensive. RM 550 for once.
if i fail to achieve the minimum requirement (6.5 and above) to enter Uni of Melbourne & Sydney
i need to pay another RM 550.
and i tried very hard that i just can get a low band 5 for MUET.
IELTS????? = =zzzzz

of course i'll go for Melbourne if i fail to enter NUS.

the problem now is.......
Singapore still haven't reply me.
I don't know whether i'm accepted or rejected.

I wish to know earlier so that i can let IDP (agent that helps me to apply for Australia uni) knows
whether i want to accept the offer or reject the offer.

and IDP has been waiting for me for...i think one month already or more than that.

haiz....

everyone expect me leaving Malaysia.
including myself.

but what if....
I fail to enter NUS. and i missed the chance to accept the offer from Uni of Melbourne?
= =zzz i'll stay here...........................................................

well....the advantage is....
it's much cheaper.
but i cant learn much here.

i'm afraid of strangers and places i've never been.
and i'll definitely get home sick.
who doesn't?
but i should consider what i can learn instead of those things.

in my opinion,
we need to learn more than we can.
those small cases (esp ur feeling....like dun feel like leaving ur home town, apart from your friends, etc)
should be ignored.
cuz tat's a kind of training.

we need to grow.
we need to overcome our fear.
so accept the challenge.

now i'm prepared for the challenges.
but somehow..........................................................
macam NUS doesn't want to accept me = =zzz
(because my fren kena interview for ASEAN undergraduate scholarship and i din. which sounds like i wont get the scholarship. there's higher possibility that i'm not chosen for NUS and i want that scholarship. though when compare with my fren who get the interview, i dun seems like i need it. BUT I DO NEED IT!!!!!!= =zzz i dun wan to spend so much of my parents' money. it's still very expensive to study in Singapore even though it's cheaper than Australia.and they said tuition fees for international students in Singapore increases for about 60%....tat's horrible.)

maybe i think too much.

pray hard.

do bless me.
don't curse me.

= =zzz i work so hard for f6 just to aim higher.
i dun wan to waste all my hard work just to stay in Malaysia.
cuz.............it's really.............................................................
i dunno. if u dun understand, ask more......esp uni students. they will tell u a lot!!!!!!!!!!!!

why i know????
i GOT A LOT OF UNI FRENS!!!!! from different places in Malaysia.
not only Swinburne friends.
tat's still ok.
i mean Local Uni.

ahem......go ask them.

for me.....most of the brilliant one...
cuz staying here...no money go outside......
they've graduate as not the excellent one.
they can be excellent among Malaysian students.
but.......haiz.....
u know i know lah....T_T


but i've been prepared for the worst.
if i stay in Malaysia.
i wont let myself just like that.
i'll try my best to study more than what lecturer can teach.
i'll try to learn more than what i can learn.
then.....i'll try hard to get any chance to go outside (As sometimes ppl from outside like Japan or Korea will invite Malaysian students to go over their country to attend some programs.)
and...............! I AM SURE PLANNING TO STUDY MASTER / PhD OVERSEAS!!!!!
i wont end myself as a degree holder.


so....do bless me.
thank you. bless me, bless yourself too. =)

Going Green

read this from Reader's Digest.

wish to share with u guys.

Should I turn off the lights everytime i leave the room?

Let your bulb answer that. You save energy with the lights off, even for a few seconds.

But flicking that switch shortens every light bulb's life. Incandescent light bulbs are cheap, so turn them off when you can. Compact fluorescent lightbulbs (CFLs) aren't cheap - about 4 $ each - but one will save you about $30 in electricity charges throughout its life span over an incandescent. And don't worry, turning on a light bulb doesn't burn a lot of energy. The US Department of Energy's office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy says that the amount of electricity needed to turn on a bulb equals a few seconds of its burning brightly.

Reader's Digest Version : Turn off incandescents if you're leaving the room for more than 5 sec; CFLs, if you'll be gone at least 15 min.

Do i really have to unplug my TV, phone chargers, CD player.....?

Even when they're not on, electricity courses through the plugs of your electronic gadgets so that they'll jump into action more quickly. This "vampire electricity" sucks up $4 billion a year in energy for things that aren't even on. Your laptop alone, turned off but plugged into the wall, will cost you $9 a year. Mobile chargers that aren't connected to a phone cost 14 cents a year. With millions of chargers out there, it adds up.

Reader's Digest Version : Unplug. Even easier, plug everything into power strips with on/off switches.

Cold-water washes are greener, but will they get my clothes clean?

For a hot-water load, about 90 percent of the energy used to wash clothes goes to heat the water, not agitate your clothes. The good news is, washing your clothes in warm or even cold water will get rid of almost anything, except for the worst dirt or oily stains.

Reader's Digest Version : Switch from hot to warm water to cut energy use in half; cold, to cut it even more.

Dirty dishes : by hand or by machine?

By the time you wash a sinkload of dirty dishes by hand, you'll go through 15 to 19 litres of water. Modern dishwashers require electricity, but new ones use 95 percent less electricity than machines built 30years ago, and they clean well enough than in most cases, there's no need to prerinse.

Reader's Digest Version : Stick to full loads, use the pot-scrubber option only if necessary, and hit the no-heat or air-dry option.

Peanut butter jar : a simple rinse or a full-on scour before recycling?

A small amount of food won't gum up the recycling works, so don't waste a lot of water making the peanut butter jar pristine. You should do it mostly to keep pests away. And that lime in your empty beer bottle? Leave it.

Reader's Digest Version : rinse out what you can, then recylcle.

Soda bottle tops : on or off before recycling?

It depends on where you live. Some places insist on no tops; others more laid-back. Leave them off because
1) the caps are not always made from the same plastic as the container

2) they can jam the processing equipment.

Reader's Digest Version : Off with their heads!

In public restrooms, paper towel or electric hand dryer?

Far less energy is needed to heat and blow air at your hands than to make paper towels and haul them around. One study found that nine trees are cut down to supply an average fast-food restaurant with paper towels over a year; the tossed towels then create 453 kilograms of landfill waste.

Reader's Digest Version : If there's a choice, go for the hot air.

Paper or plastic?

A key ingredient in plastic bags is fossil fuel, and making them - from drilling and refining oil to actually manufacturing the bags - is a messy business. Turning timber into paper bags isn't exactly clean either. Paper mills contribute to acid rain, global warming, and respiratory ills. Plus, they demand loads of energy and water. Even bags made from recycled paper are six times as heavy as their plastic cousins, so trucking them across the country means more gas consumed and more noxious fumes.

But, you cry, paper bags decompose in landfills and plastic doesn't. Wrong! Virtually nothing decomposes in a landfill, where garbage is kept from air and water to prevent bad stuff from leaching into groundwater. And what does biodegrade can take tens, even hundreds, of years and, in the process, releases methane gas, which is linked to global warming.

Reader's Digest Version : Paper and plastic bags are both lousy choices. Take your own reusable canvas bags.

Should i turn off the computer when i leave for the day?

According to Go Green, Live Rich by David Bach, only 34 % of employees power down their computers. In America, that would save $4.3 billion in energy costs, and avoid 32 million tons of carbon dioxide emissions, annually by turning off office computers and lights. Don't worry about wasting energy powering up your computer. The only extra juice needed is in the first two min, and even that's barely more than any other two minutes of use. The real problem : Repeated rebooting is a pain.

Reader's Digest Version : If you won't be using it for 20 mins, turn off the monitor. If it won't be needed for more than 2 hours, turn off the computer.

Let the car idle or turn it off?

As the California Energy Commission points out, "Idling gets zero miles per gallon," so why waste the fuel? The old thinking was that starting up the car took more gas than letting it sit and run. Yeah, if you're driving something from the early 1900s, but not so with moderns, fuel-injected autos, where ten seconds of idling can use more fuel than turning on the engine.

Reader's Digest Version : Idle for 30 seconds if you must. Longer than that : Turn it off.

Air conditioner or open window : Which costs me more petrol?

One school of thought insists that air conditioners are a drain on the battery and petrol. Another claims that open windows cause aerodynamic drag, forcing the car to gulp more fuel. Yes, while sailing along a high-way, the air conditioner does steal power from the car engine, but Consumer Reports found that it amounts to only about 1.6 kilometre per litre, worth it on a scorching day. On the other hand, open windows do cause a drag on the car, making it work harder, but not by much.

Reader's Digest Version : On the highway, do what feels most comfortable. But around town, try to drive with the window down. Your hair will be a mess, but you'll save some petrol.

well, just a share.

for me, i'll try to do what is recommended to save energy and fuel.

sometimes just cant do it.

but will try.

don't forget to close your car window when the air is not that clean.

don't ruin your own health just to save some money.
