White weekend, black weekdays


It snowed last weekend in Dunedin, probably just about 1 cm, not much ehh..... but at least it got all of us excited. My children especially, since they really wanted to see snow. The temperature drop to about 0 C degree and it start snowing at 12:30 am Saturday night for about 10 minutes. Come Sunday morning, wallah!! snow!. By afternoon it all melted. We managed to snow sledge near Otago boys' school as they got got slop. Sunday was fine but suddenly.....got some bad news that I knew it was coming to hit me anyway.
This bad news will no doubt affect me through out this week and actually it will never ever get better, but that is life. I pray hard to God to make me strong to face this. Meanwhile, my PhD work has got to go on no matter what. I must do this for all intention. This is what will built my character and to discover something new for the sake of humanity. It is a noble cause as I would like to imagine Mr Frodo, bearing the weight of the world on him and the temptation of the all but one ring that bind all others, on the quest against eye of Sauron.....thats me.
Got letter from UKM, saying that my scholar got in, nice of Aida to do it early this time. Thank Aida!!! Meanwhile spoken to my mom and as usual she complain about Msian politics. Sigh!! No one does politics for peoples sake like what Tunku, Onn Jaafar, Tun Ismail. These are the through bred of politician to the very day they die. Nowadays is it always about positions, money, family, big houses, big car, title and respect. No...no,no it has to be about buying new iphone. By the way the new iphone look really cool and half the price!! it run on 3G, felt sorry for those who bought it at 600 with no 3G.
