Hello everyone, last night was a great night for Eklektos Youth, because Don Budd was at Kyrugma House did sharing with us about his life.
So who is Don Budd?
He is from California, was a Great time Pilot for his career.
He is a great, humour speaker of all time.
He share about his life, how he met God, and taught us about how much faith we need to serve and worship God.
We must go through Jesus Christ to get to God.
Yes, we must have faith in God, and surrender all of our life for God.
It was really funny the way he presented last night, we did enjoy it and our refreshment was Pizza, from Pizza hut.
Last night theme songs- Amazing Grace
Its my pleasure to join Eklektos youth team led by Frans Lo to Newly open Orphanage, called Care Heaven.
Actually, I don't really like kids, or play with them. I don't like to take care of them. So, it's a great experience to take care an orphan with Samson, my friend in church. Firstly, there are many kids, so Samson and me found a cute kids, or should I say he is cool, quiet boy.
His name is Nelwe, 14 years old. We three people paint a white cloth for him as remembrance, to wear it and keep it. And also I gave those kids Bookmarks made by Eklektos youth for the Christmas Carnival Fair.
We played games together, sharing and enjoy.
The last part they performed a song, which they sang in Chinese, which made me felt sad, pity, and appreciate their performance.
Enjoy
Merry Christmas to everyone! and a happy new to year to you all.
What is Christmas in your opinion?
Yeah, Christmas is the day of Jesus was born.
So, what really Christmas is? Everyone is excited about Christmas as they can get present from family and friends.
Have you all ever listen to Emmanuel has come?
This song explained what Christmas is, here is the lyric
Christmas is about His glory
Christmas is about His grace
Christmas is a gift of love
Our father gave us
More than just another story
About a special time and place
Christmas is a time to lift
A song of praise
For God with us
And we celebrate
The glory of His presence
Christ has come
To fill our hearts with love
He came to save us
King of kings and Lord of lords
His Name is Jesus
God with us
Emmanuel has come
Angels fill the night with singing
God is reaching out to man
Bringing us a gift of hope
In Christ the Saviour
More than just a time of giving
This is God’s eternal plan
And Christmas is the reason
We can sing again
Merry Christmas to everyone!
Hello everyone, it's another youth of the night, yeah, our speaker was Rev Lee. The night was an amazing topic which I din't take any note but, I remembered it. Praise the Lord.
The night, I have learned a lot of stuff about Mary, the mother of Jesus Christ. Among all the woman at that time, why God have chosen her to be Jesus's mother? Yes, there are few reasons for that.
#1 Student of Word
Mary study bible, the Word of God always, she is a good learner. God need someone like Mary to teach Jesus about the bible throughout his life. So start reading bible everyday, at least once in a week.
#2 Humility
Mary is a humble person. In Luke 1:26-38. Everyone should be humble of what he/she got, and not to jealous on others, be appreciate of every things in life, don't complain but be grateful, thats the way to attracts more good stuff happen in life.
#3 Availability
Mary is a student of Word, she serve God as her Lord, the only God, and she willing to become the servant of God.
#4 Praise to God
Mary praise the good things happen to God!
Everything we got, either good or bad, we shall praise to God, or Halleluyah. Criticism, everyone been through before, it does feel bad or hurt, however, we should also praise to the Lord, at least we can learn something from it but not to complain about it, think positively, it will increase our self-esteem in life.
#5 Enthusiasm
Mary was excited about it when the angel came to her.
When we worshiping God, we must bring our heart to worship, we must be excited about it. So, when we doing anything in life, we should be excited or happy, this will directly influence the performance or the consequences.
Yes, the 5 traits that Mary is special than others.
Its was a good topic share by cathy lee father =)
Do leave feedbacks
Thanks
Yeap, I am graduated from IS, finished my S.A.M course which is South Australian Matriculation. Hmm, in one year course, I have learned a lot of stuff, such as speaking in English, learning to do assignments which are University format, and lead Young Entrepreneur Club through out a year as a president. As a leader, you must have responsibility in taking a lot of task and stress. I have learned it, it was quite hard to lead all the members throughout any activity the club has organised.
So, finally, I'm graduated from IS, never been to the new campus before, heard that it is big and like hospital, because it is empty inside the campus. It is far from here, many students need to take Shuttle bus from Old campus to get there.
Yeap, we did enjoyed our ceremony, congrats to my friends who got awards, especially the almighty Johan Donough! He is the best in our class! He deserved it =)
Onces again congrats to all graduates ! Diploma, Intensive science and SAM GROUP! All the best
Hey there, christmas is around the corner, everyone is excited about it. Christmas is the day of Jesus borned.
So last night is another eklektos youth celebration! Timothy Wong was our fabulous speaker yesterday night.
What he talked about?
The verse from the bible
12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.
13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
14 How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?
15 And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!
He explained everyone needs jesus to come to god and enjoy eternity, we must always have God in our heart in order to achieved something we want. It is apply to all kind people to
hear the God words, many people out there may not heard of Jesus , and his story. As a Christian we have the responsibility to share the Gospel, and encourage them to learn more about Jesus.
Yup thats all for the night , God bless everyone !

Yesterday, friday, it was my first time to join cell group, which I wish to join and learn more about God. Yeah, now Im part of E1 lead by Emanuel Lo! He is a great guy !
Tonight our topic was Yakarta! What is Yakarta ?
You are precious ! Yes, means you are precious. In God sight, everyone is precious to him, no matter who they are, or what they did before, they are also the most precious one for God.
Isaiah 43:4
Since you are precious and special in my sight, and I love you, I will hand over people in place of you, nations in place of your life.
God love every single one, so we should love others too. We should treat others as God love us, so, learn to respect, listen to others, and forgive peoples you hate before, try to care them more!
I believe in this, if you want love, you shall give your love to others, just same as if you want money, you should give money, like charity ! =)
We will worship you, forever , spread the word of God by christmas caroling !!
God bless good night!
God bless good night!

Hello, once again, long time did not blog at here, feel like blogging about recently happened stuff. Wow, 2009 going to end soon, what are our next goal for 2010? Did we achieve our goals for 2009? I guess some of mine achieved but some of it not really.
2 months left, we must not waste our time, we must be productive to gain more for this two months =)
So, WHAT HAPPENED LATELY?
Exam finished! Yes, our last paper was Accounting, which is really easy, all the basic stuff, but report writing is still okay okay for me, hope can maintain A for my real results. So, whats the next plan? I'm going to help one of my friends to promote and do online business, which I hope I can earn some commission and also gaining experiences =)
Another friends asked me about part time jobs, I answered them I wish to join too,WHY? because i wish to learn more. What am I going to study for?? Hmm, probably I'm going to work for sometimes then start choosing courses to study. I wish I able to achieve my dreams, to build a business, invest in real estate and become a big time investors. =)
So, start planing and gain more knowledge by reading, watching video and seminars.
Sunday night, went to Kbox with Classmate, celebrating Dorothy birthday, fun and tiring.
Okay, about tonight MJ This is it movie, not bad, just not very bad though. I'm not a big fan of MJ but I personally respect him as KING of POP!
Alright it's getting late, I don't wish everynight to become an OWL, Thank you Jesus for every day, appreciate everyday, just like living everyday as the last day of living. God bless and good night!
Eklektos night again!! Yes God, through you we can do anything, as Jesus give us strength to achieve all our dreams, just keep some faith. =)
Tonight we have a very special guy to give us a speech about Rights and Responsibilities.
Bro. Peter Chu .
What is right?
In my point of view, right is something that you have the right and permission to do. Which is not doing bad things. However, most of us, we want more rights, such as we have the right to drive, freedom, and have the right to spend all the money without any worries.
But, yes we can, we need to have responsibility for all the DECISION and ACTION we did. Yes, we have the right to go out late, or to be freedom without any control of parents, but we need to have the discipline and responsible to fulfill our role and respect our parents.
Our parents want the best. We need to respect that, but they also need to respect our decision, as we have the right to choose, and follow our heart. They know what best, but not actually know what really best for you or me, only we know.
Jesus gave away his right for everyone, he died for us on the cross.
God create the earth, we have the right , but responsible to take care of the earth.
Yup tonight what I learn is, in order to get MORE RIGHTS, you must BE MORE RESPONSIBLE. Learn to take responsibility, this will improve your leadership skill =)
At last, believe in yourself, think positive, and Ask for what you really want.
God bless
Happy B'Day to you =)
The day you were born,
It is just like God sent you from Heaven,
A beautiful person sent by God to me,
All the beautiful things happen in this world,
You bring passion , love and care to me,
And today I wanna thanks you,
For being here with me in this life.
I love You
Happy B'day,
Make a wish,
Wish for something hard enough,
Believe it, will come true,
Cause I have wished hard for myself,
That you are the only love of my life,
Always and Forever,
Happy Birthday!
Harlo ! Great day everyone. Why great day? how great is my day?
Everyday should be our great day no matter what happens such as overslept, fall down to the floor or everything not going so well. Nope, is bad too think negative, no matter how, You must treat everyday as GREAT as you can.
The science of getting happy is to be happy, think positive, and feel great with your life. Give thanks whatever you have, don't blame for anything you don't have, but be grateful. Yup, I'm starting to feel great about my life, yes it works for me, it attracts good stuff.
The science of getting rich also the same, begins with the absolute acceptance of this faith. Do not ask why these things are true, nor speculate as to how they can be true; simply take them on trust.
So feel great everyday, keep practice your mind think about what you really want, without "I don want this or that" , "But" and "If".
Going to share with you the video of THE SECRET, which i found on YouTube.
After watching videos of great speakers and read books, there are some similarities among all of it about how to be successful in your dreams. Here are some of the few steps to achieve your dreams.
Step # 1
Be clearly know what you want
Clear all your thoughts in your mind, think about what you want from your life, and live your dreams. Sometimes we may face defeat, ya its true, and we all have our own version of limiting beliefs that creeps into our minds and keeps us small and constrained. No, its wrong, we should not limit our dream, we might as well to ask for what we want, believe it and achieved it. Remember to think what you really want for your life.
Step # 2
Plan
In order to live the life of our dreams, we need a plan, follow the plan and we will be surprised about the results. A plan should be like a guide, a step by step, a map for us to walk to our dreams. However, before we write our plan out, we should be truthful to ourselves and know where we are. For e.g We should not pretend to be rich when we are broke, we cannot lie, as we cant achieve our dream without knowing where we stand and where are we. So make a plan!
Step # 3
Commitment
Be committed. Slowly, do step by step, after achieving bit by bit, you will keep up the motivation and passion to continue for your dreams. Committed and action! Is never too late, just do it and give your all.
Step # 4
Friends and team
Everyone need someone , and everybody need somebody. We all need a team to succeed our dreams. "Teamwork is a fuel that allows people to attain uncommon result."
Step # 5
Thoughts, Become and Thanks
We think about what we really want for our life, we believe it. Belief determine your actions. If we are not believe it, we won't succeed. We were born with something, and born to be success, don't get influence by other limitation of your belief.
"There are no disabilities, there are only something that hinder your thoughts that you can't succeed! " Nick Vujinic
At last, thanks and feel great about your life. Be happy and be in good mood always!
Thanks
Yes!!! 7th November 2009!! Exam finish soon, 3 more subjects to go.
First of all Congrats to all Tshung Tshin Students graduated! Go for your dream! Follow your heart!
Tonight is another youth of the night! Thanks to Pastor Aster Soong! Great speech which I understand what she taught us about! Amen!
What is the main topic about prayers! How do pray God? Did God answer our prayers?
How do we pray?
Usually we will pray for two things, first , is yourself, you will pray for your studies, your health or your future will be better. Second is others, pray for others such as your family and Boyfriend/Girlfriend, any other stuff like pray for something that will go smoothly (Meeting, Eklektos celebration, Interview and many more). We believe in God not by sight, but is by Faith. So when we pray we should pray with little faith.
Matthew 17 : 20He told them, "It was because of your little faith. I tell you the truth, if you have faith the size of a mustard seed you will say to this mountain, ' Move from here to there' and it will move; nothing will be impossible for you."
We pray to God, must have faith, the faith does not depend the size but as little as mustard seed.
We pray to God, we CANNOT pray based on present circumstance and past. For eg. The faith cannot based on past and present, like something that worked for you at the past and present doesn't mean will make for the future. Its not a formula for us. However, we must pray based on the word of God, our Jesus Christ.
So, Did God really will answer us for our prayers?
PRAYER BY FAITH WILL BE ANSWER. There are two promises from God.
1.MERCY FROM GOD
God will change the situation that we prayed and answered our prayers
2.GRACE FROM GOD
If God din't answer or give what we want, God changed the thinking of it, and will change our agenda of the prayer.
E.g I pray to God hope that pretty girl to look at me and like me, but the girl din't. At that moment, I must keep faith, changed the agenda and my thinking, like this, "hope the girl and other guy he like will be happy, and God I know that you will give me someone."
Hebrews 4 : 14-16
14Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has gone through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess. 15For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet was without sin. 16Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.
God is the best! Our only salvation, Our hope! Our righteous and Holy God!
Enjoyed and thanks !! God Bless !!

Anyone heard of the movie name The Secret? I never watch before but i read the book.
Recently I just finished a book, which is good for teenagers like me, The Secret to teen power. Great Book, I would recommend all of us should read it and motivate yourself.
What can you learn from this book?
1. THINK POSITIVE
Hmm, after reading this book, I learned to think positive, give thanks and be grateful what I have now. "Every bad things happened , came from one bad thoughts." According to law of attraction, when we think of negative stuffs, we will have negative things happen. So think positive right now =). Remember, what you think about, you bring about. When we spend way too much time thinking about what's wrong in our life or stuff you don't want, guess what? Bad stuff happens.
2. VISUALIZE, THOUGHTS BECOME THINGS
We should visualize what we want in our life in our mind without any doubt, and at the same time create a positive vibe.
"If your are going to be thinking anyway, you may as well think big." Donald Trump
Yup, all the stuff that goes on in your life is all down to your thoughts. We need to be happy and positive thinking always. Don worry so much about the past, as you cannot change the history, you can only invent the future. However some people are worrying about the future too much, sometimes i did, but is useless to worry so much, the best way is to make the WISE CHOICE at the present moment.
3.ASK, BELIEVE, RECEIVE
This book taught me to ASK for what you want, you are basically placing an order and be clear on what you want. Practice it in your mind, be FOCUS. After that, it is important to BELIEVE that it's coming your way. Faith and never give up are very important traits for successful people. So never give up. BELIEVE IT. Because when you believe it, you will attract it.
How do you make yourself believe? Imagine you already have whatever you want.So just pretend your desires are already your. The more you do this, the more you will attract your desire.
"Take the first step in faith. You don't have to see the whole staircase. Just take the first step." Dr Martin Luther King Jr.
The final step which is RECEIVE. You will receive it when you keep practice yourself to think positive, dream big, nothing is impossible, and believe it, you will receive it. So trust your instincts.
4.BE GRATEFUL
Being grateful shifts your whole energy and changes your thinking in positive way. Remember, it's only when your thoughts are positive that you can attract good stuff into your life.
5. FEEL GREAT AND ENJOY YOURSELF
Life is meant to be fun. As you feel good, as you experience happiness, you will attract more experiences and feelings of happiness.
Yes, I read this book, I would recommend all of you to read this, its worth. Remember, don worry bout your future, do what you love to do, DON SETTLE. Don listen to people that hinder you, said you can't succeed, won't necessary, IT'S EASY TO IGNORE THEM, ask yourself, why you wanna believe in what they said to you, they are just loser who afraid to try and make mistake. So, Ask for what you really want, be FOCUS, and believe in yourself, follow your heart, don't make any excuse that you can't succeed, just go for it, put some faith, and you will RECEIVE the reward, Be positive. =)
Yeah , once again blogging with blogpress. I would like to express my feeling now, I feel moody,down and miserable. I don't like this kind of feeling, so I went out just now to get some fresh air and read book alone at Damai Coffee Bean and had some foos at vegas.
It was great to be alone sometimes, dreaming or think of somethings.
Why am i feeling bad? I felt not satisfy. However, I think and think again, I finally understand Grateful will bring you great stuff. Once I am grateful for what surrounds me, I feel peace and love, inside which can only bring about what I want.
Seriously, after reading the book The Secret to Teen Power, it said that being grateful shifts your whole energy and changes your thinking in positive way. And remember, its only when our thoughts are positive that you can attract good stuff into your life. When we are grateful, we are positive minded, we believe in what we can achieved, we will be successful in future. Feeling grateful everyday, saying thank you whenever you got up from sleep, practice it, good things will happen to you, the law of attraction. =)
We should be happy what we have and make use of what we have now. We aren't to blame what we don have, it is no use. Just like looking back to history is useless, we can't blame anyone and wr can't change the past, but what we can do is to invent the FUTURE. The only thing we can change is our future. Make use of what wr have, be gratitude and say thank you, and your dream will come true.

Another Youth Celebration!
John15:16
You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit, fruit that remains, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name he will give you.There are many choices in our life, all the choices are on our hand, we created it, whether are good or bad choices, we must be careful and make decision. We choose what we want to be, we choose what physical health condition to be, we choose to serve God too. There are not only study, eat and sleep in our life, We should serve God, and bear fruits.
Jesus chose us to bear fruits that will last. There are two type, first is fruit of spirit, love, joy, and peace. Second is live in life that people will listen to you and share gospel and bring them to serve our Father God.
Life is more than study, working, online, more than anything. We should do the RIGHT choice, any choice that we made, there will be an outcome. Anything we need, we should seek God, he will give you, Before receiving, we should give.
We shall give then receive. With God, we can overcome anything, just seek for him.
Our Saviour, worthy and honour. We will worship you.!

Last Saturday, Eklektos Celebration once again. The topic for the youth is Live For God. We welcome and thank Rev Ann Low for ministering to us.. Quite enjoy to listen to her speech. We as christian, we should live for our God, experience God's love in a deeper way.
Any problems, theres a solution, we should ask God, God really will help us. Ask for help, don worry. She taught us to laugh, to be happy, and great things happen! Yes i agree with these statement. Why? Our thoughts will become things
Yup isn't that amazing? According to her, we must serve the only God and believe in Him. Believe the only, trusted him to help you and rely on him.
God, purify our heart, let us be as gold the pure gold! Jesus! I choose to be holy, cleanse our sin and we always ready for your will! Hope everything will be fine, no matter how hard, God will helps us.
Our theme song for that night is You lifted me out!!
Psalm 8 : 2From the mouths of children and nursing babies you have ordained praise on account of your adversaries so that you might put an end to the vindictive enemy.
The power of God is above all in the earth and sky even children are praise and worship God, So enemies are silence their mouth blame to God.
Yup, thats all for tonight! Thanks God, and praise to you lord!
Yesterday night, once again, worshiping God at Kyurgma House. A Joyful, wonderful night for everyone, we had a good celebration night.
I did enjoy yesterday, sing along and praise to the God! Halleluyah.
What was yesterday topic? What did I learn?
This is the summary of the lesson I learned yesterday night!
Colossians 3 : 15 -17
In this chapter, we must let the peace of Christ be in control in your heart and also be thankful. We must be grateful and with peace.
Changing bad habits such as speaking rude word, bad temper but speak in the name of Jesus Christ and have peace of mind.
This was the theme songs for yesterday night!

Wahai everyone, how many window users out there? wow it seem Microsoft hold a larger market share compare with Macintosh, because M = Monopoly? Okay, I'm a PC users since window 95 until the current version that I am using is Window Vista. There are a few people still using Window Xp as their primary operating system, because it is more stable than vista, without the features of user control (which is everytime pops out and ask for your permission to whether allow or not allow this program), which i hate the most, damn annoying.
So, what I am blogging tonight? Yeah, I love Apple products, creative, user friendly and elegant. A good products always elegant, such as iPod nano, most popular mp3 player in the world and the best selling mobile phone, the iPhone. Yeah, as you know that, Im pc user, but i like Mac more than PC. The features are cool. Macintosh is really a great operating system ever.
Why Microsoft hold the market share over the computer industry?
"The Macintosh became the first commercially successful small computer with a graphical user interface."
Yeah, the Macintosh was the most successful computer last time. So why?
"While Jobs was a persuasive and charismatic director for Apple, some of his employees from that time had described him as an erratic and temperamental manager. An industry-wide sales slump towards the end of 1984 caused a deterioration in Jobs's working relationship with Sculley, and at the end of May 1985 – following an internal power struggle and an announcement of significant layoffs – Sculley relieved Jobs of his duties as head of the Macintosh division."
His Apple dream, all disappear at 1985, he hired the wrong guy to manage the company. He started Apple but fired by Apple. So sad. I like Steve Jobs, he is one of the most innovative and smartest businessman in the world. Even Robert Kiyosaki said he is a superb businessman with high leadership skills. Microsoft is lucky I guess, they manage to come out a new operating system , the Window 95, the most popular OS at old time, get all the market shares. During that time, Apple shares and revenue eroded and dropped significantly. So in 1996, they recalled Steve Jobs and appoint him as the CEO of Apple once again! After the great return, iMac, iBook( which is macbook nowadays), iLife and many others.
What I like about Apple?
Beautiful Products, User friendly and more capable than windows a lot!
Anymore ? Yeah of course, Let watch some of the Get a Mac ads! This will differentiate a Mac and a PC! Enjoy
There are a lot of cool ads, just google "get a mac" ads

Did you see that? The topic above that I wrote? The date ?Ya thats it, enough of social media (eg Facebook, twitter and digg), enough of listening podcast and watching youtube! I have to start plan for my study schedule before its too late. Yup Trial exam is coming, as well as the Final exam for SAM course, it is coming to the end of our course too Guys! Hope there will be an enjoyable and memorable Group Trip after final exam!
This few days, really exhausting for preparing my hardcore subject, which is my legal studies. Ya, prepared quite well this whole afternoon, but hope can go through the exam better, at least getting a pass!
So, there is no more time for me to do my regular stuff, which is listen to podcast, update my google reader, facebook and blogging. No more time for my geeky gadget!
Every one has their own way of revisions, suitable for them. However, I do have my own techniques. So, I prepared a top 5 tips for study and information retentions.
- Plan! Have a plan for study time tables! Follow the schedule, and you will be well prepared for the exam. Some students do not have a plan, they are lost. A plan is like map or compass for a trip, without one, you will be lost. So work a plan, and work on the plan!
- Keep your desk clear and FOCUS! Ya, my desk is messy with speaker, laptop, pencil, iPhone, iPod and all the cable.
Its important to study on a desk which can make you to focus! not to diversify. Laptop which made me could not focus at all, because I like surfing the internet, chatting and play games with my laptop.- A day a subject to revision! According to scientific research, human brain can not handle multi-task. Do not diversify or study two subject at one time. I usually will only focus on one subjects then have a rest then continue back to that subject. F ollow O ne C ourse U ntil S ucceed.
- Take note in point form! This works well for me to do revision and to retain my memory. Drop down important points and build a mind map for your brain to recognize, this really works extremely good for me when i was in senior 1.
- Action! And do your best! Great it is, to dream a dream,when you stand at youth, by a starry stream,but a greater thing, is to fight life through,and say at the end, the dream is true. - Poet Unknown . It is useless to keep all the history or say the word "I wish i can do that, I wish i had more time. There is no time to worry backwards, we are to invent the future. So do our best for the exam.
Sometimes in life, I felt down and Lost, I totally don't know what to do? How, I usually will tell myself to face it, sometimes I could but sometimes I couldn't.
A few minutes ago, I was updating my Facebook and watching Warren Buffett talks on MBA, is quite interesting by the way he talked , he is one of my "Hero" or should I say he is my Idol to look upon to him, to be like him and learn from him. Then, I saw a video uploaded in my Facebook, this video is to ALL THE PEOPLE WHO FEEL LIKE GIVING UP. Thats included me for sometimes.
So, What do you do when you fall down, facing down and feeling no hope? Lets watch this inspiring and motivational video.
After I watched video, I'm so inspired by him, his attitude, his way of living his life and how he get back up from his sadness.
Don't give up, never ever. Just put some faith.
Nick Vujicic, a motivational speaker, there are many of his video on YouTube, feel free to check it out.
Thanks for watching it.
How many people joined twitter? How many people using it? What is twitter about? What for to tweet and update ourselves?
There is no doubt that the traffic of twitter is growing at an incredible rate. According to my research, there are roughly 18 millions of registered users.
So What is Twitter for? Twitter is a popular micro blogging for us to update ourselves and follow your friends and family and even News, Branded Fashion, Apple, Obama Barack? or your favourite movie stars! Besides that, business owner can even grow their business and dominate the market by tweeting. Some people may found job and employment in twitter too.
Okay, lets compare with Facebook, Twitter may sound tiny to compare with 200 millions active users of Facebook! However, Twitter will continue to grow and it is a good tool for people to start blogging. It is short, simple and clear micro blog or updating your status. Someday, Twitter will become a huge social networking area for people and business to grow!
So how to get started?
Firstly, sign up for an account! Of course, thats easy.
What you should enter into your profile?
I recommend to create a profile of your real identity or your company name. Make sure your profile name easily to recognize and represent you or your company. Put photo of yourself, your avatar or logo of your company.
After creating a profile, whats next?
Building followings! After signing up, you can now start following people!
First, start to follow someone you know. Then, find your favourite celebrities to follow =)
You can get to know new friends at twitter, just go search column and type a keyword eg Business - then twitter will directly link you to some users are interested in business or talking about business.
What can I do besides following? What other features?
Okay, besides following others or followed by other, you can tweet about your current status, what are you doing, tweet your blog post every time you post new stuff and tweet interesting news in order to share with the community.
Apart from that, when people tweets you, make sure you reply and respond to them by update another tweets with @username. You can even call your friend with twitter and JAJAH! Just create an account of JAJAH. Then type in @call @username, JAJAH will automatically link your phone number to the number of the one you wish to call. Although I haven't try that, but will try it soon =)
Few tips
- Don tweet crap or rubbish, tweet what you are doing, why you doing it and talk about yourself.

Hey everyone, today I would like to share with you all something. Thats right, about this book, The Tao of Warren Buffet. It is a book about the Quotations and Interpretations to help and guide you to billionaire wealth like Warren Buffet, the world richest investor, the best stock investing Guru!
For me, inside this book, you will get important advice from Warren about life skill, getting rich, business life, education and workplace.
There are many categories but I just list out some of the important points:
Quoted from Warren Buffett
Getting & Staying Rich
1. Rule No.1 Never lose money. Rule No.2 Never forget rule No.1.
2. Never be afraid to ask for too much when selling or offer too little when buying.
3. It is impossible to unsign a contract, so do all your thinking before you sign.
4. It is easier to stay out of trouble than get out of trouble.
5. You should invest like a Catholic marries-for life.
6. It takes twenty years to build a reputation and five minutes to lose it. If you think about that, you will do thing differently.
7. I don't try to jump over seven foot bars; I look around for one foot bars that i can step over.
Business
1. If a business does well, the stock eventually follows.
2. You don't have to make money back the same way you lost it.
3. I look for busnesses in which i think i can predict what they are going to look like in ten to fifteen years time. Take Wrigley's chewing gum. I don't think the Internet is going to change how people chew gum.
Education
1. You have to think for yourself. It always amazes me how high IQ people mindlessly imitate. I never get good ideas talking to other people.
2. The smarter the journalists are, the better off society is.
3. You want to learn from experience, but you want to learn from other people's experience when you can.
Workplace
1. In looking for someone to hire, you look for three qualities: integrity, intelligence, and energy. But the most important is integrity, because if they don't have that, the other two qualities are going to kill you.
2. The really good business manager does not wake up in the morning and say," this is the day that i am going to cut costs," any more than he wakes up and decides to practice breathing.
3. We enjoy the process far more than the proceeds, though i have learned to live with those also.
4. If you hit a hole in one on every hole, you wouldn't play golf for very long.
Advisor, analyst
1. Never ask a barber if you need a hair cut.
2. Forcasts usually tell us more of the forecaster than of the forecast.
Why not to diversify
1. Diversification is a protection against ignorance. It makes very little sense for those who know what they are doing.
2. Why not invest your assests in the companies you really like? Too much of a good thing can be wonderful.
3. You only have to do a very few things right in your life so long as you don't do too many things wrong.
Discipline and prudence
1. If you let yourself be undisciplined on the small things, you will probably be undisciplined on the large things as well.
2. Imagine that you had a car and that was the only car you'd have for your entire lifetime. Of course, you'd care for it well, chaging the oil more frequently than necessary and driving carefully. You have only one mind and one body. Prepare them for lifem care for them. You can enhance your mind over time. A person main asset is themselves, so preserve and enchance yourself.
3. We simply attempt to be fearful when others are greedy, and to be greedy only when others are fearful.
When to sell,When to leave
1. The most important thing to do if you find yourself in a hole is stop digging.
2. We never look back. We just figure there is so much to look forward to that there is no sense thinking of what we might have done. It just doesn't make any difference. You can only live life forward.
3. If you don't make mistakes, you can't make decisions.
4. That which goes up doesn't necessarily have to come down.
These are all the important ones I have taken notes. I guess is a useful and motivational quotes for all of you in the future in order to have a better life and enlightened business skill!
Hallo Everyone, today I'm going to share with you all about a free and open digital publication of high quality educational materials, organized as courses.
So what's all this about? Can you educate yourself for free? Taking any sort of courses in the university for free? You can find course materials and share your university courses? Yes, thats right!
This is the video i get from iTunes podcast. The source is from Chris Pirillo Show, my favourite geek in the community.
This is the website. OpenCourseWare is a free education for all of us.
About Studying in University and OpenCourseWare, Which better?
Studying college or University is quite costly just to get a certificate and a degree or even PhD. Is it worth to pay the cost to get that, even the bank don't need your certificate to give u a loan? In some other way, it is worth to get it as a backup. It is important to study hard and get a degree for most of the people, but for me it's not really that important.
So in this website, you can't get a degree certificate, but you can educate yourself for external knowledge. You can find many resource materials in the website and download it for free. I like this very much as I can learn before entering university and gain more knowledge!

The man who is Muslim in our class, The man who is our Group leader, and the man who is very kind and generous, Johan Donough invited almost all of the SAM group to eat dinner at Damai point Upperstar. Thanks for the invitation Jo, yeah we all call him that.
Alright, the dinner was started at 7p.m. Jo invited part of the SAM group included me. So, its cool that night, we enjoy a lot with the foods which include my grilled chicken, four season pizza and many more seriously.
THESE ARE SOME OF THE PHOTO:
A group of crazy friends
This is the Johan
Why I wrote this into my journal?
- The first reason is, I guess it was a memorable day for SAM group to meetup together and have a dinner, chit chatting. Maybe this was the last time we enjoyed a lot in a group this year due to exam period. Damn, I seriously hate exam and studies something that doesn't works in my life. Miss those days hang around with SAM mates. Its just feel happy whenever thinking of those memorable day with classmates. SAM talent night show, we worked out together as a team to participate the show, we made a parody show, Love story by Taylor Swift. It was amazing night, we enjoyed our show although we din't get any awards.
- For the second reason is, Jason Low, our SAM clown was back from Melaka last few weeks. and he is going back this week, can't spend a lot of time with him, just yesterday night, but we enjoyed, very great night. We talked crap together, shared our life together, and he was as fun as last time too.
- The last reason is, hmm, enforce our relationship with each other? Yup I guess. Having dinner together will encourage use to communicate with each others. I love communication with people, no matter who is the people, I like to share my life with them and also listen to them. Sometimes talk crap, or rubbish, sometimes talk about current market, business talk, and future ambitions.
Thats all for my reason that i put down all the memories in my online journal. After the dinner, should be around 9p.m. We went to Metro pool to play, I played with Kim and Jane, beat up them. Nothing special after that, went home and online, then Sleep. Night for today, God Bless.
