Top 10 countries creating the most negative environmental impact

Top ten countries creating the most negative environmental impact in the world, according to a new study released by University of Adelaide Environmental Institute of Australia.

10. Netherlands
9. Philippines
8. Malaysia
7. Bahrain
6. Thailand
5. Japan
4. Kuwait
3. Qatar
2. Korea
1. Singapore

Surprisingly, Singapore is much a modern country, and with 10 year car life span, can actually top this list.. thought they always planting new trees, and keeping their greens, with balance in development.
Middle-east has took quite a few spots, maybe due to their rapid development of buildings.

Inner & physical healing

Inner healing is the healing of the internal of a person be it psychological, inner hurts, emotional pains, broken hearted.
The healing by the Grace of GOD within us.
We should ask GOD to give us the grace to forgive, and let go of it. It is hard to forget because the pain is just so real, and the scars within will always be there. When we said that we have forgotten about it, Its just not true, because when we say so, we still remember that it happen before.
After the healing for within us session, there was also a physical healing session.
There can be many healing, but they just did 2 of it. 1 for the shoulder pain, and another for the back pain.
I prayed for the healing of my back pain. Not dramatic, but sometimes the pain comes and go. Just now, i could feel the healing within my back. A feeling that it got better, but the priest lay his hands upon me, with the congregation praying over me. n i was the ONLY person that the whole congregation prayed upon??
When i saw many non-catholic going up and asking the priest to pray over them, it shows how great the LORD is, and he has bring people into his house. The many people that are seeking healing from his mercy and grace.

NS trainee gives birth in camp toilet

NS trainee gives birth in camp toilet

It said she has been in camp since March, which is almost 2 months now.. means she should be at least 5 month's pregnant. So many month's pregnant, and still can't be seen. I wonder how she undergo her training. The others also didn't notice it. She must be really good in hiding her baby bump, since nobody knew it. Or maybe people knew, but just kept quiet. She could have not gone since she is "medically unfit" at that moment. Why our NS keep got such stories, one after another.. Interesting leh...
Do you think NS management should have their future female NS trainee to under go pregnancy test to avoid something like this happen again in the future?

Interview at Citibank, HR department.

Spend almost this whole afternoon for the interview at Citibank.
The interview itself took about 1 hour. The other was traveling time, and waiting time... Yes, waiting time... not because there was other people at the interview, but because i arrive early, and she had some "urgent" last minute thing to be done.
I left my house around 1.30. arrive at Citibank HQ around 2.30 or so. Got myself registered at the concourse. All visitor have to get a card because there is a barrier before the lifts.
went up to the top (almost there), they have 3 kind of lifts, low level, high level (both can take from concourse), and the "high high" level which must be change at level 35 (highest for high level lift).
Went in the HR department, there was nobody at the reception. [nice sofa and furnishing] so i called the number that i was suppose to call [i tried the whole morning, nobody pick it up, obviously its a direct line, coz when get through always she pick] she said will be coming, wait at the reception area. Got a magazine, so just pick up and read it, called The PEAK, supposedly a high-society magazine, because there was so much "quality" products. One of the article was about Dato' Seri Mohammed Shazalli Ramly, Celcom CEO; Dato' Sri Tony Fernandes, AirAsia & Tune Group CEO; Jason Lo, Tune Talk CEO. There was also an article talking about art collection and gallerias.
SO, i waited for about 45 minutes before she was finally able to interview me.
Mean while, there was this lady who walk pass few time, each time passing by me, will say you still waiting for her o! She seems quite a senior staff, should be Manager grade & above.
The interview was pretty normal. Each has their own way and style. Mainly she was asking me about my past experience in studies, work, and society.
Hopefully will be shortlist, and shortlist by her boss. *keeping fingers cross* because it seems there is quite a number of applicants.

I hate Private numberI

I HATE PRIVATE NUMBER!!!
because when they call you, and you can't pick it up, or pick but can't speak (like during lecture/ meetings), and you can't call back because you donno their number. unless they always use the same number, and you already know their number. If its a big corp, even if you have their name and number, might not get them also...

Just now i called this organization since its almost the end of the day, and he haven't gotten back to me. (He said will call me back earlier in the day). He use private number, so i try find another number, hoping they from the same department. But then he is not from the same department, and she (the lady who emailed me) donno which department he is from. *cry cry* coz can't get him, and have to just wait for him to call me... *ultimate KAN CHONG-ness*

He didn't call just before i made the call, but WHEN i was speaking to the lady on the phone he had to CALL ME!!! private number

I put down the phone *jump jump jump* walao!!!! of all time, he called me THEN!! private number some more...

*pray pray pray* HE CALLED back. Line broke!!!! luckily he CALL again... fast fast ask for his number first. in case anything, can call him back...

He said 2day his last day, and he is TEMP staff, that's why cannot locate which department he from. but i got the department right... He was from HR.

The lady said he might be from other department other than HR because they (HR) will collect, and give out to other departments, they seldom will call on behalf of other departments.

anyway, luckily he called back. If not i sure cannot eat & sleep well...

The other door is also opened, bt donno how is it upstairs, so just join the Q for the Kiosk which was not open yet... 7.30 the National Registration a.k.a Make IC department also open their door, but Kiosk still nobody was in sight to open the door... Finally 2 woman emerge, and open the door... they went in and do something, after 5 minutes, they came out, and open the door to let people in.. i was like 6/7 in Q, maybe even more.. but then when door open, i walk directly to the kiosk since i have everything prepared, including the envelop. have spare pun =p
while some of them have to fill, this and that... so i manage to be the second in line for one of the 3 available a.k.a function-able kiosk... 1 was roask, and its been like that for allah noe how long la...

The lady in front of me was like pretty slow, then came the insert-your-money part, which the machine took it so damn slow la... so i ask her slowly put it, if not it wil be even slower, coz it wil like that its own time to scan to c if your money is fake or not gua... if keep pushing it, it might jam...

Then came my part, which i think took quite fast, coz i c how she did, so i noe agak whats next... put in your RM300, and DONE... headed for class, and i was still early... by 7.45am, i was out of the Kiosk room... very FAST!!! After class, around 12noon, it was ready...

But then its now 48 pages, up from the 32 pages previously...
