Hey hey, why is it so hard to look for an internship or a job that related to my major - psychology. Why am I in Oklahoma? They have any reasons to have nothing at all compared to other states in US. I found that there are so many job opportunities about Upward Bound program in Seattle, Nebraska, LA and more. Well, I only found some youth services here but it doesn't capture my attention at all by just looking at the website.
In the beginning, I thought Kat was talking about Outward Bound and therefore I was looking at the internship on their website. Outward Bound seems to be a very interesting place to work. But until now, I'm not sure what I'm really want to do because I sort of have some mentoring and teaching experience in my college years but I don't think I can be a very good mentor who has the sense of caring to really take care of the children.
Listening to Mayday Parade. Their songs are good especially - If you can't live without me.
Psychology always sound interesting to people. But I don't feel like being a counselor, therapist or a social worker who just helping people in their hard life. I may like to analyze people's behaviors, attitudes as well as their way of thinking. Honestly speaking, not trying to brat at all but I think I have the ability to read people's behaviors by just interacting with them. I can easily tell the category of people that they belong to. Well, that would somehow become my weaknesses as well. Because I'll know what kind of people they are and I may judge my friends in a mean way. BUT I don't usually do that if I don't have to. Wink*
Gosh~ I was staring at the internet for more than an hour looking for internship which related to Outward upward program in Oklahoma. My friend told me that we have to see if our campus is carrying this program so that we can actually stick our nose into it and try to find out if we can volunteer or something. Fortunately, I found that UCO is carrying this program and I was so happy with it. But when I take a closer look at the bottom of the website and guess what I saw? The website was not been updated since Nov 2008. What the.... Owhhh, come on! And then, I shifted my attention to OU, OCCC and OSU. They do have Upward Bound Program in their campus but I don't think they are hiring. They might wanna take volunteers who are working for free but I'm a UCO student. Chances of getting into their network are pretty rare.
The only reason why am I indulging myself into music recently that much is probably because I don't know what am I gonna do once I'm graduate. Well, I don't seem motivated to get involve in psychology stuffs. But when people talking about business and corporate stuffs. I may seem a little bit excited about it. Psychology sounds professional but I feel that I'll have more satisfaction when I actually working a corporate company and dealing with a challenging business world. I guess I have taken a wrong major and I won't say wasting my time but I may have to spend more time to pursue for another major that actually suit me. Studying MBA would be another option for me. But money seem to be another problem. I don't think I wanna spend my dad's money anymore.
Well, let's get a job once I graduate. But of course I wanna stay in US for a couple of years in order to earn some USD before I head back to Malaysia. But what can I work here? Okay, I'll try to get into COPE - a counseling center in OKC. At the same time, I'll try my best to apply internship in Outward Bound and see if I can get it. This internship might help me to look good on my CV. Dang it... I've still not yet fix my CV, ............ not motivated to...
Owl city is something we should listen to .... Adam's songs are relaxing and it can create a jovial mood into your soul.

Japanese Teas
I just found out that there are actually many kinds of Japanese green tea. First of all, the most prominent one would be Sencha and Matcha. Sencha would be considered as the usual drinks in Japan and people can find Sencha everywhere in Japan including some other countries. On the other hand, Matcha is famous for the Japanese Tea Ceremony.
Here are lists of Japanese Green Tea,
番茶 Bancha (common tea)
玄米茶 Genmaicha (brown-rice tea)
玉露 Gyokuro (Jade Dew)
焙じ茶 Hōjicha (roasted tea)
冠茶 Kabusecha (covered tea)

September Babies
In fact, I have no idea that there are so many September born babies until this semester in UCO. A beautiful baby girl was born on September 5th and on that day only I realized that there was another guy's birthday is on September 5th as well. What a coincidence!
I always thought I'm the special one. But now, no longer I am special. But I told the mummy, Yes! the daughter is gonna be brilliant, beautiful and has the determination to strive for the best in her life. Because she is born in September 5th. Not being self-praise but just wanted to say that those who born in September has something uniquely built inside of them which they are potentially to bring it out to people and say, "Hey, we are the best! And here we are to make your life better".

Sounds like a good news...
The Star Online, "Umno abolishes quota systems for candidates going for top posts"...
In fact, "quota is illegal" in United States. I read this from my Organizational Behavior text book yesterday. But I know it is NOT in Malaysia. How sad~
It that gonna be true? Well, it would be fantastic if the "quota system" mentality can be abolished. All these while, climbing up the laddar and obtain a higher status of position particularly in government party has alwasys been an issue in Malaysia. People desperately wanted to protest and change it but end up no one dare to take the first step because we understand that one's current position may be affected if he or she requests for a higher one. Therefore, they would like to do it in another non-aggressive way, that's called ameliorate the condition.
Well, seems like it's getting better now. Frankly speaking, can we find justice in Malaysia? I mean the real one. Not the one we have in school, teachers spank who deserve the spanking.
I hope everyone is given equal opportunity of doing what they are meant to and hopefully Malaysia can be a better country which everyone would look up to with respect.

Hey!
What a nice date!?
09 / 09 / 09
.... time, 09 : 09 : 09
It should be a memorable date. Nothing much happened today. Just done with a test and I've got back lab report and I realized that I've got 97%. Woohoo~ I was cursing and swearing while I was doing it. Well, not bad... at least, I'm glad that my professor sees my hard work.
I had to work at 8am this morning and I usually have 3 classes on Wednesday. After my second class, I have a meeting at 2pm in the International office. Test began after meeting. wow... busy!~
But let's us cherish 090909. This is so awesome!

A typical Thursday night
Oh, it's another rainy day... ...
I just realized that it is raining out there once I've done cooking my dinner. The sky has been waiting to rain for the whole entire morning, afternoon, and now it finally rains in the evening. The rain seems like washing off the moodiness of my day. I need some element to cheer me up lately. In fact, I have not been cheered but have been cheering up a lot of people lately, for quite a while...
Dinner is okay. I'm having some chicken with broccoli and an extra sunny side up egg. Some would claim that I'm frustratedly picky over food. But I would like to protest that I am not (sometimes ^.^) As some may know, I can be quite "whatever-ly" easy-going as long as I have RICE, EGGS, VEGE and big portion, of course, for me (for those who know me well). I don't like the feeling of getting hungry. I think no one does except for those who are having Nervosa Aneroxia, eating disorder. Somehow, I really hope they would EAT for themselves but not the physical appearance. I can completely understand the social pressure they are dealing with. People, nowadays prefer slim girls than plump girls. Nice body shape may have a plenty of advantages which some may not even getting one. Look at how unfair the society is nowadays.
People's distorted mindset and perception are eventually killing people's life.
Can you believe that?
Since this is considered a case of murdering, should we all sentenced to death? Discrimination, prejudice and stigmatization are everywhere in the world. People are surrounded by all these nonsense. Name me a place where there is no discrimination at all. I'm not sure anyone could ever find such a heavenly nice place.
In a positive manner, people would refer you to see a psychologist or a therapist in order to solve your problems in life. Do you think psychologists never discriminate against people? They do. That's why they could hardly solve their own problems. Not that they are not good enough. It's just way too hard. Because they are still human beings. This is called LIFE.
What is life? Social...
What is social? Society and people...
Why is society and people creating problem among each other?
....Because they do not know how to deal with their life in terms of society and interacting with people.
People are barely talking to people nowadays. We speak much lesser than the olden days. The reason is we have emails, facebook, myspace, twitter, online messenger or the easiest one - texting! (who does'nt...? huh?)
I was chatting on MSN with a friend today. He requested for video call and I got a little excited because I can talk to him without my hand typing on the keyboard. Unfortunately, we were just webby-ing each other. End up we both still have the type. I was like... "I prefer talking to each other if we have decided to on the webcam lohhh.." Really I felt a little bit "what-the.." So, what's the point?
What is communication nowadays?
So, you guys see how communication affect people psychologically and causing them eventually diagnosing a plenty of bizarre mentally ill disorders.
People get mentally ill either when they talk too much or they talk too less. It's all about personal interaction with others. People call you "nerd" when you talk less than others. If you can't take it, they will ultimately call you "psycho" ... why?
...because you just went crazy of unable to accept WHO YOU ARE!
Again, BE YOURSELF!
