Been extremely hectic in the past few weeks. Students (a total of 223 students) have been submitting their work to me electronically and I have to submit their results to my supervisor around mid of May :S Their coursework is simple, but their writting makes it difficult for me to understand. There are some friends who have send me some messages, telling me the exams questions that they got in their exams are not difficult. I hope this would makes them feel ease and relax and to do better in the upcoming exam for other modules. I am expecting to see some first class in that case :)

I also know some students will be having their exams from May 01 - 13, 2009. Again, best of luck to you, and hope to see you in your graduation in July 2009. (Please also bring your student ID and some pen for your exams).

Anyway, I am getting one day break for myself before continuing to read and write again. Although this is random, but I found it exciting, snapping a picture to share it with everyone. Well, a diamond ring by mean will not represent anything special since you may have seen every female wearing a diamond ring anywhere. What makes me feel special with these diamond rings is, the price of that particular ring. There is this ring (I think 3.5 carat) cost RM 181, 998. I am not familiar with the carat calculations but based on the calculation in google, one carat = 200 milligrams in weight. Again, I would still prefer to invest that RM 163, 998 to buy a property for my wife and investing the remaining RM 18,000 (which sum up in RM181 K) in a diamond ring :)


Caption: the baby named Enoch

In the past few weeks, one of my dad's best friend called him up, telling him his wife gave birth to a child. The baby is a male. Congratulations to both of them. However, his wife ended up staying in the ICU (Intensive Care Unit) for several days. Her husband claimed that she has been bleeding for few hours continuously. Due to that, she was sent to the CCU (Coronary Care Unit) later for further monitoring. In brief, the ICU is a specialized departmentin hospitals that provides intensive care medicine. Any patient who was asked to stay in the ICU department is considered as at high risk when their life considered risky at that moment. The CCU is a department in hospitals that will intensively monitor and taking care their patients (normally) with critical heart attacks. He has briefly explained that the lack of blood in her body had caused her heart to suffer.

Their baby is really cute. They name him Enoch (I think). Enock is a name given based on the bible by a father in a Catholic church. His mother gave birth to him in seven months, so he is still at a very weak condition. Thank god his mother's condition is fine, and staying at home now.

My aunt suggest to buy the baby a hamper. She explained that it would be better to give the couple a baby hamper for their baby. She said the hamper should have some clothes, etc. in which the baby can use them daily. Well, what she said makes sense but guess what, how much should a baby hamper cost usually when a baby's top and bottom itself cost around RM 20+? I can see both Liz and my sister were playing happily with the baby clothes. They seemed excited with jokes and laughter when walking around the baby department. Hmm, probably discussing their future plannings? :O


Caption: puppy doll and I

They offer to snap some pictures for me when we saw this puppy doll. They say it looks like me :( Although I were born in the year of a dog, but how can they say I looked like the puppy doll when I looks much cuter than it :D lol (just kidding). Anyway, we went to other shopping complex since my mom dislike the design of baby hampersin that earlier shopping complex. She plan to buy the baby products (shirt, pants, mugs, etc.) and wrap it externally.

So, we went to Anakku. Anakku is a very popular company selling baby products and accessories, such as apparel and toiletries, disposable diapers, feeding equipment, toys, accessories and gift sets. The price of their products can be expensive due to brand name (i.e. the same size (40 inch) television selling much more expensive from SONY than Panasonic). The last I heard is that Disney has merged with Anakku in baby products.

They have spend some money on wrapping the hamper on that night but the outcome from the wrapping does not give me a feeling that the hamper is expensive lol. Probably the ladies working there are not good at wrapping and / or were rushing back home on that night (approximately 10:30 PM).

My aunt suggest that lady to make a nicer flower with the ribbons (yellow and blue). She said the design of the ribbon flowers were insufficient to attract her lol, and have demonstrated her artwork to the workers over there with their ribbon. She made some really nice flower in less than few minutes. Maybe this is her area of expertise lol.
