Bejing Olympic 2008 Count Down !!!

HAha....its now 7/8/08, 8:08:08pm, its just not around the corner of us, its just 24 hours away from us, China finally made it, wow time is just flying pass us, its just too fast, it seems that not long ago it was just in the month of february...

Ok, just wanna say I like the stadiums in Beijing so much, the structure & its design is just too overwhelming !!!! There's nothing I can say about it, its just too impresive to me, i really wish I could go there personally & look at those building structures & even touch and feel it, hehe. But too sad to say, i've been to Beijing but it was just too long ago, in year 2004 if im not mistaken. At that time , we only got to visit those historical & memorable places unlike now where there's modern buildings & I believe the environment there has improved a lot & also people there now should be more polite I guess, like not to spit everywhere. Talking about this issue, i've seen it with my own bare eyes when i went there for holidays, a chinaman even spitted in the hotel on the carpet itself , WHAt??? Yuckss right ?? haha....just to share some ....


However, too sad to say is that, the air quality there is really terrible when it was in 2004, & now though the government has made all kinds of effort to reduce air pollution like " the even-odd system" and to reduce traffic congestion as well...

Let's take a look at pics:

Days ....

Just a random post, to share with my friends what im currently doing in college. Im having a kind of a different feeling for this semester that I can't really decribe it in words.... Also, to mention about my class for the financial reporting subject, wow the class size is really overwhelming, you wouldn't believe it, its in total about 250 of them !!!! Unbelievable ? Just believe it, still can't believe it, i'll show you pics then :




its just people , people & people everywhere ....




Another thing to talk about is our lecturer - Ms. Menon. I really admire her because she's able to convey each topic clearly & precisely to us (250 students), she's just born to be a lecturer i guess so ? And im really lucky & thankful to have her as my lecturer.


As for this semester, our gang had found another entertainment for ourself other than playing cards is to play MAFIA...... Also not to forget that some of us are having PSP fever recently, hahaha ....

Sorry...

Im here just want to say sorry to 2 person:

Firstly, to say sorry for my rudeness these few days & i can't really control myself & i don't understand what's actually going on. But, after that incident i feel much more comfortable after telling you everything i wanted to , so just to say sorry & thank you to you although i know you wouldn't be reading this .

Secondly, to say sorry for my unconscious mind of thought which somehow leads you to misunderstand ....

Okay, that's all for it. I'll relax myself from now on & just to concentrate on studies because there's just really tonnes to study & im being much more lazy each semester, why???

Starbucks Coffee Close Down

Starbucks Closes 61 Stores in Australia

Starbucks is closing 61 out of it's 84 stores in Australia. This is a lot of stores to say the least. From my understanding, the economy in Australia is not suffering, and other specialty coffee retailers are doing pretty good.Wonder why the huge cut back so soon?


Starbucks to close 600 coffee shops in US

When times are hard, something has to give. And for many Americans, eager to cut back on their spending, a cosy afternoon latte has become one luxury too many. According to analysts, that is one of the reasons why Starbucks is planning to close down 600 of its coffee shops across the United States. Some 12,000 jobs are set to go.

“Starbucks has been expanding very aggressively,” said Lars Perner, a professor of Marketing at the University of Southern California.

“They have charged very high prices and there has been a lot of competition coming in, so Starbucks has had this coming for some time.”

Views on the closures were mixed among customers in Los Angeles. One man said that a cup of coffee was all people could afford nowadays.“You can’t take this away from us. This is all we have got left!”

But a woman did not seem too worried.“Oh, there are plenty of other coffee places. I would not be too upset, so it is alright,” she said.

Despite the closures, Starbucks is still opening new outlets in the US, though fewer than initially planned. And to counter the economic slump in the States, it is also expanding internationally.


Oohhh no......life gonna be tough for us in future, but im lucky that currently im not getting involve. Despite such economy downturn or should i say suffering from inflation, but i still see long long queues in the cinema during weekdays & working time, shouldn't them be working, studying or doing anything else other from watching movie ?? Funny right?

What's Going On ???

On Monday, as usual i woke up at around 9am, but unusually saw my mum at home because she's normally out for exercise. So, she told me a surprise news , but actually its already expected but i didn't expect it to happen in such a sudden. It's just that yoga zone is currently facing bankruptcy i guess ??

So, in the afternoon, after fetching my brother to tuition, due to my curiousity & im considered busy body, i drive there alone to take a look what's actually happening ? Then, i only get to take a few photos because there's a stupid car behind who is in a rush. Wow, there's the first time i get to see this kinda incident personally. Let's look at pictures :


take a close look of the red paint being splash on the wall


see that??



is that what we call artistic work ?? (workers are there cleaning up the mess >> but im just wondering why would the workers be doing the work, aren't they scared of not being get paid??)


SCaaryy !!

But my mum's membership fees will most likely be gone i guess, too bad !!
