perut, why do you do this to me?

assalamualaikum

Waduh, dah lama aku tak update blog ni. Bukan saja dah berabuk, berkarat pun ada ni, huu. Untuk mem'polish'kan semula, aku buat satu post berkaitan dengan perut.

Perut ni bagi lelaki sebenarnya macam aset penting. So, kalau aset tak dijaga, agak kacau bilau lah sikit. Boleh jadi perhatian orang nanti macam aku kena, huu. Minggu lepas, ada reunion semua batch sekolah menengah aku. Jadi jumpa ramai kawan2 lama. Soalan pertama yang diorang tanya mesti, "Eh, nampak berisilah?", "Amboi, chubby dah sekarang ni ha", "Apa lain pulak nampak ko ni sekarang?". Aku tak marah pun pasal tu sebab dah memang macam tu aku, hee. Disebabkan tu, penjagaan perut agak penting. Ada beberapa tips yang aku nak kongsikan sikit berkaitan perut.

1. Avoid foods that contain high carbohydrates, such as bread, biscuits, and cakes that high salt content such as snack foods found in many stores or supermarkets.
2. Do regular breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and interspersed with fiber-rich foods such as fruits and vegetables, and yogurt. Foods rich in fiber will make you feel full in the long period and beneficial for organ health.
3. Drink plenty of water at least 8 glasses a day. You may also consume 200 ml of skim milk per day, or 4 cups of tea or lightly coffee.
4. Eat salad vegetables in unlimited quantities. But, if you feel your stomach bloating when eating it, you can boil it before eating.
5. Chew the foods slowly, especially vegetables, dried fruits, and grains. This can reduce flatulence.
6. Do a routine exercise every day. Exercise will burn calories and will make your stomach look flat. In order to make your stomach flat, try doing sit ups exercise every day at least 8 times for 2 consecutive months.

 Ada macam2 cara nak follow tips ni. Biasanya, aku akan follow step by step. Mula2, amalkan first step dan buat sampai ok. Lepas tu baru amalkan step seterusnya. Untuk korang yang rasa macam tergolong dalam golongan PJD (Perut Jalan ke Depan), bolehlah amalkan tips diatas.

google releases malaysia's top searches for 2011

assalamualaikum

Google is releasing today its annual Zeitgeist lists for Malaysia: this year’s hottest selection of search terms on google.com.my. The lists offer a unique glimpse through the collective eyes of Malaysian searchers into the big events, memorable moments and emerging trends that captivated the nation throughout this year.

This year’s fastest rising searches reveal that in addition to social networking and launching Angry Birds at green pigs, Malaysians love a good laugh, with local reality TV show Maharaja Lawak landing the third spot.

When it comes to TV, Malaysians clearly love reality: America’s Next Top Model (ANTM), X Factor USA and American Idol 2011 were the most-searched for TV shows this year.

"Tonton" and "what is ppvrip" were also popular searches, indicating that Malaysians are

bringing their appreciation for TV online.

Tech-crazy Malaysians had plenty of technology trends to plug into this year. Gadgets both real and rumored grabbed four out of the top ten fastest rising search queries: iPhone5, iPad2, Samsung Galaxy and Android were all popular searches.

Turning to Google with their tech-related questions, Malaysians asked “What is …” to find out more about ‘iPad,’ ‘hacking’ and ‘jailbreak.

Singer-songwriter Bruno Mars, who visited Malaysia in April, leads a list of the fastest rising people searched which includes three other international music stars – Avril Lavigne, Rihanna and of course Justin Bieber, whose baby face topped the list of most popular image searches this year.

Malaysians also turned to image search to discover what fixed-gear bicycles look like as fixie culture took off, and to see Domo-kun, the furry mascot of Japan's NHK television station.

The fastest rising Malaysian searched for was YouTube sensation Cikgu Shida, who has garnered a large following miming to local and international hit songs.

Other Malaysians making the lists are young bloggers Fatin Liyana and Haniz Zalikha, politician Anwar Ibrahim, cleric Ustaz Kazim and muslimah designer Hana Tajima, who created a wave of headscarf fashion locally.

Google spokesperson Zeffri Yusof says: “Google’s year-end Zeitgeist is a cultural barometer that reveals just about everything that has us excited, curious or plain wanting to know more. From leaders, celebrities, current affairs to pop culture, sports and everything in between, search trends reveal what’s on the collective Malaysian mind.”

police report filed against gay med student or ariff and his partner

The police have been urged to investigate gay medical student Ariff who reportedly married an Irish man over the weekend.

The report was filed by Muslim NGO, Kepong Islamic Youth Organisation (PBIK), with the Sentul police headquarters here this morning.

“We are making the police report in the name of the Malays against a Malay youth who disgraced the name of our country, religion and race.

“We want to pressure the Higher Education Ministry and government-linked companies which sponsors students for education abroad to ensure that the students’ Malayness and Islamic identity are strong,” said PBIK chairman Norizan Ali.

Ariff, 28, who was studying in the University College Dublin was initially reported to be missing. He is a former Petronas scholarship recipient.

muka kau buruk, teruk, busuk dan macam-macam lagi

assalamualaikum

Hi guys. Dalam post kali ini, aku nak bercakap mengenai persepsi manusia terhadap manusia. Jika manusia itu tidak mencapai satu tahap standard, ia dianggap tidak menarik. Memang dasyat bila manusia menilai manusia lain. Orang zaman sekarang ni, kalau dia nampak orang lain yang kurang menarik, dia mulalah memberi tanggapan yang negatif. Sebagai contoh:

• Dia nampak tak cantiklah!
• Dia nampak lansung tak handsome pun!
• Adoi, kurusnya badan dia ni, macam batang lidi dah aku tengok dia!
• Gelap macam warna arang dah aku tengok kulit dia ni!
• Bapak gemuk badan dia tu, macam belon dah!

Dunia zaman sekarang telah menghasilkan satu 'benchmark' untuk menilai manusia. Kalau manusia itu berkulit putih, dia memang menarik orangnya. Kalau manusia itu berbadan tegap, dia memang handsome lah. Kalau badan dia 30-40-30, dia memang mantap sangat. 

Eh, come on lah. Jangan kita nak guna 'benchmark' ini. Kita tiada hak nak menilai seseorang itu sama ada dia cantik atau buruk. Setiap yang ada pada seseorang manusia itu adalah cantik atau handsome. Semua yang dicipta oleh Allah itu memang dah cukup sempurna.
