Im not campaigning!
I think somebody had just realised the potential of internet.
See my hotmail account pop-up add below. I am quite impressed (judging based on their track record)
but anyway, I am disappointed not having the chance to perform my responsibility as a Malaysian, it is supposed to be my first time voting (I'd checked my ID online and my election post is at my primary school! aint that cool?), but I am not back home, and I don't trust the choice I have from here.
All the best for my country...

Understanding Homosexuality
A brilliant talk on describing homosexuality from developmental psychology perspective...
this vdo allow us to understand what does homosexuality alternatively means, rather than looking at it as a normal biological anomaly.
because if we look at it as a normal deviant, it doesn't 'fit-in' in the Religion perspective. Because most Religion condemn this (which actually condemning the act of homosexuality, i.e. having sex with the same gender, not the sexual tendency),
I don't believe whats in our thought matter (as it is all considered as temptation), what matters to Him is our action. After all isn't life is a test?

when an Archbishop speaks on behalf of Islam...
I was watching the evening news last night, which is normally not my routine. Did that because I read an interesting headline on my personalized Google homepage about Dr Roman Williams' lecture on Islam in English Law. read more here
Anyways that news did upset somebody that is watching the news with me. She went totally mad with that idea, although she is neither Christian nor English. And started speaking nonsense IMO, saying that it is not realistic to have two set of laws in a country (i corrected it is not a dual law, but a sub law which governs only Muslims, as it is a need esp in Marriage etc) and then she speaks even more nonsense by saying 'if these people want such law they should just go live in Iraq or somewhere else.
"Daa, thats frm the Archbishop mouth himself!"
I didnt say that or anything after that, first I understand her nature being like that over small matter. (really admire her bf's patience) And I understand peoples have the wrong idea about Islamic law, straightaway they'll think about all these barbaric and male chauvinist we always see on media, which is unIslamic, wrongly practiced by some Muslim countries. Shame on us...
but anyways, i realize suddenly that my surrounding is now more 'biblical', this afternoon during a seminar, i overheard people at the back speaking about their Christian congregation back at home, i certainly never heard they speak on that topic.
I do admire Dr Rowan integrity and his depth understanding on Islam (you can read his speech on BBC news web). It shows that he did his research on Islam, because in my opinion even Muslims themselves are afraid to say the word Sharia because they themselves have the misconception on this law.
and I believe in this free-from-political-interference-country, the real values of Islamic Law can be uphold iA

Sort of Homesick
I woke up this morning, a bit late, mind you, it is Sunday Morning, wohoo!
But the weird thing is I woke up thinking of Terengganu's 'keropok lekor', a type of fish chip, which is a popular 'cuisine' in east coast of peninsular Malaysia. Maybe it is because of heavy dose of dried fish chips that I got from postage delivered here three days ago from my parents.
I miss home maybe. And I found out that there is somethg interesting going on in Terengganu from the phone conversation with my family this afternoon.
nice right?

aint that cool?
