The Ultimate Template :)

Here we are, with yet another new template.

Since it was only me who keeps changing it, I can't help but choose the ones with white and green color (don't you noticed?), in addition, it fits with the picture.

:)

It seems the changing season brings along fever and anything that comes with it. My brother and I both caught fever, hence unable me to spend the last days of my vacation with my beloved niece. Same goes to Arshana, but I think on her part it's more of moving to Kuantan reason, hehe.

Just pulling your leg, Arshana.

While I think most of us are busy packing, I am not so. Most of my stuffs are already at Kuantan, which I sorely hope still intact by the time I claim it. But I have other packing to do, my famil will be moving to Nilam Puri for a while due to financial constraints. It's not bad, actually, but my parents opted for the lesser burden. And it'll be a bit of adventurous for my part, the idea of living 'off-house' is quite appealing actually, it suits my eccentric self, haha.

So, I'll see you guys at Kuantan, by the time I hope my cold and fever has already ceased, in sya Allah.

Scholar-ship

I was reading the papers today, in the Education segment and there was an article about an interesting undergrad and postgrad program being offered. It takes place on a cruise ship around the world. No boring university lecture halls for you. And where would your classes be you ask? The world! And the people you meet are the teachers. How cool is that?

Not only do you get to travel and see the world, you’ll get a degree by doing that. This has to be one of the best degree programs around. I don’t think there’ll be any quizzes or assignments. I’m not really sure how the students will be graded. But this truly appeals to me. One thing for sure, there'll be plenty of field trips.

But there’s a little drawback. It costs a whopping US$ 19K. That’s a lot of money. On the bright side, there’s a scholarship being offered for US$ 5K. The scholarship does not worth much actually. But if you have plenty of greens in your account, might as well take this opportunity and travel the world. It would be a great experience.

Both love and death...come uninvited
And we have no power to control over it
