在一阵感动过后，发现情节蛮虚构的。但还是扯了我的心一下。
发现我在blog里面放的东西越来越没有什么意义recess week差不多要过去了
似乎跌到了谷底
你們認識很久，
他天天朝九晚五噓寒問暖的
電話比你的鐘錶還要準時
你滿心歡喜你開始心懷期待，
就連做夢都會笑出來
可是他就是什麼也不說
你對自己說等等再等等，
直到有一天
你看到他身邊有了另一個身影
你震驚 " 不是...這是....我是.....? "
在朋友眼裏你們很登對
每次聚會他做你的護花使者責無旁貸
你也發現自己對他有了些些的依賴
他總是不經意的拍拍你的肩
很寵愛的揉揉你的髮，
朋友關於你們之間無傷大雅的玩笑讓你覺得很甜蜜
你說你感覺幸福就在不遠的地方
就在你以為一切都將水到渠成的時候
睛天霹靂,他說他從沒對你有過這種想法
他說這是你的誤會.
你呆住了
" 誤會?那麼多人前的親昵......竟...竟然是...誤會.....? "
傷心嗎?難過嗎?痛苦嗎?只是....只是
誰讓你把曖昧當愛情呢?
這是個曖昧橫行的年代，
感情出現的第三個種類.
比友情深比愛情淺
游走於二者的邊緣
這就是曖昧，
是什麼時候開始本應是明明朗朗的愛情成了一場麓戰，
誰先動心誰就滿盤皆輸萬劫不復.
是誰把簡單複雜化
其實說穿了，
曖昧，
是可以推脫責任的遊戲，
沒有承諾就無需負責；
曖昧，
是勇敢者的遊戲，
無畏的人
才能在角逐中進退自如；
如果你沒有鐵石鑄就的心腸做軟胃甲
那麼你就別拿曖昧當愛情...
曖昧是，
比好朋友再親一點，
但比情人遠一點
曖昧是，
你會常常在MSN等他線上
當他幾天沒有線上，
你就會有些擔心
曖昧是，
你會不時去他的BLOG看看有沒有更新
而且你會留意字裏行間
他對你有沒有什麼暗示
曖昧是，
有感覺，
然而，
這種感覺不足以
叫你們切切實實地發展一段正式的關係
曖昧是，
明白人生有太多的無奈
現實有太多的限制
你知道沒有可能但又捨不得放手
曖昧是，
有進一步的衝動
卻沒有進一步的勇氣
曖昧是，
他不是你的情人
但似乎他比你的情人更關心你和瞭解你
曖昧是，
你會編一條圍巾給他，
但大家從沒有開始過
曖昧是，
雖然他不是你的情人
但他卻會對你說：
你對我是十分重要的
曖昧是，
你感冒時有一個會在晚上打電話來
特意提醒你服藥，
叫你蓋好被子早點睡的普通朋友
曖昧是，
每當他提及他的另一半時，
你會萬箭穿心
曖昧是，
為了逃避背叛的罪惡感
曖昧是，
甜津津又同時酸溜溜的
往往從未開始，
已叫人不安，
患得患失
曖昧是，
別人以為你們在搞地下情時，
你會沾沾自喜
曖昧是，
別人問你們是否戀愛中
你張口結舌
曖昧是，
常常掙扎表不表白。
你怕表白之後，
你既得不到一個情人，
卻又失去了一個知心好友
曖昧是，
見到他，
你會心跳。
見不到他時，
你會掛念他
曖昧是，
兩個人都會互相猜想
他是不是已經暗示了什麼?
我是不是自作多情?
曖昧是，
每天大家都會聊MSN，
會互傳手機短訊，
無規律地偶然約會
曖昧是，
你很想多走一步，
但又怕會嚇怕了他
你會很小心流露自己的感情
曖昧是，
除了情人節之外，
其他的節日，
大家都交換禮物
曖昧是，
兩個人沒有承諾過什麼。
但雖然如此，
你願意付出的，
比有承諾的情侶更多
沒有責任
但你卻很渴望去承擔，
不問回報
曖昧是一扇門，
你可以停留在門外，
也可以踏進房子裏面
然後你不可以停留在門下面。

Which pre-requisite ability of a leader is more important, wisdom or intelligence? A successful person in leadership should have the wisdom rather than the intelligence. Obviously, definition of both intelligence and wisdom are different, intelligence, mostly related to academic study, can be defined as the strength of reading, writing or learning skill. An intelligence person has high IQ but may not have high EQ. EQ can be included in 1 of the definitions of wisdom. Wisdom maybe hard to define, but once can briefly describe it as the power of emotional control and good personality or clear mind. Unlikely intelligence, wisdom cannot be gained from book. But through practicing, intelligence can be possessed. Thus, people in leadership should have wisdom instead of intelligence. Several reasons can prove this statement of what a wise person will own but an intelligence person might not have.
Firstly, a leader should know how to how to make a correct decision. For examples, manpower management in a team is crucial when a leader wants to bring or lead hit team to reach the goal. Lots of books teach theory of managing manpower but the way to execute the theory is the key. Interactive skill among each other is not taught or learned by reading lots of books. The method of handing nasty or self-centered members is depended on one’s wisdom. Like a traditional Chinese idioms says, “rather no book than believe it blindly.” The theory in books cannot suit everyone because a difference can also be found in twins. Wisdom of applying it is important. A change depends on different situations and the skill to interact with people is much important then intelligence. A brilliant person might do well in individual work but may fail in group work as he does not know what teamwork is. The wisdom of getting with people is what intelligence people always do not own.
Secondly, the ability to face sudden crisis or difficulties is part of the wisdom intelligent people do not have. Briefly, this ability is more depended on the experience of running an activity or a project. Wisdom is gained from the situation or difficulties faced, no matter whether they are solved or not in the end. In addition, calming down the members and having a clear mind is what a good leader has to do when facing a sudden problem. A wise leader can lead his team get through a crisis in a short time and reduce the loss to the minimum level. An intelligent leader may not know what to do if he has no any experience with the problems.
Last but not least, a wise leader can protect every possibilities and plan well which will happen. This might conflict with the second point in above, but even a perfect man would make a mistake. What we expect from a wise and normal leader? Everything on earth is hard to predict, but having each set of backup plans can shorter the time of chaos. A wise leader can plan and maintain fluency well. The path to reach the goal will be smoother and faster when is chosen by a wise leader. This is also depended on the life time experience. The more situations faced by the leader, the wiser the leader will be.
In a nutshell, a wise leader might not be an intelligent person but he will definitely have intelligent members. To lead a team or a group well, wisdom is the key to be possessed by a leader.
Most Southeast Asian countries experienced a rapid growth of development in these few decades. This growth has increased the pressure on the resource base and given rose to new environmental problems. In order to get sufficient space for economic activities, deforestation is the fastest and least funds-consuming way. Thailand, one of the countries in prosperity phase, is one of the culprits. From the Rain Forest Report Card, the forest cover of Thailand in 1973 is 22.56(x 106 ha) but have a sharp drop to 16.74(x 106 ha). The percent loss is 26% of its original own. Besides, due to the highly developed technology, the population is growing fast under the good medical care. In the end, the only way to fulfil the request of land-use comes to the deforestation.
In Indonesia, the plantation is the main method of the citizens to earn their living, especially those small-scale farmers and commercial plantation developers. They burn the forest without any control, causing serious air pollution. Elimination of these tropical forests in Southeast Asia considerably enhances rainfall in those countries. This will indirectly cause the soil erosion and desertification. Last, without any doubt, every creature on earth will face extinction.
According to the World Wildlife Fund, 3 out of 8 subspecies of tiger are already extinct and Sumatran tiger is one of the last 5 subspecies
Firstly, a national wildlife crime network should be built immediately as high demand on tigers’ body parts for Chinese traditional medicine is the driving force of illegal trading. China has a huge highly profitable black market for trading tiger parts which are used in traditional Chinese medicine. This can help create a national lobby and media campaign to raise people’s awareness of wildlife. So, if consumers have knowledge about using alternative products in place of products from rare animals, illegal hunting can be reduced. Furthermore, it can lobby to increase the harshness of sentences against those poachers who hunt tigers for parts of their body such as tiger bones, gall bladders and eyes. Tiger hunting is illegal in all over the world but third world countries do not have enough power to track or arrest the poachers. Thus, bond between countries can be built and strengthened by signing contract to ban the trade of tiger parts or products often sought for use in traditional Chinese medicine. In short, without consumer awareness, the illegal trading and poaching of tigers may continue.
In addition, building parks and establishing forest reserves are good methods to preserve tigers’ natural habitat. Tigers stay and hunt in forest. Once the forest disappeared, tigers lose their living place and source of food as well. Government can help to set aside areas for tiger protection. These places should have these terms: logging is banned and the human population is sparse to put less pressure on tigers. Setting up refuge for the tigers seems difficult for some countries because they need more space to develop their economic activities. But, employment opportunities for the district administration will improve. For example, retired soldiers can seek jobs as guardians of those parks. To prevent the disappearance of tigers’ natural habitat, government can consider paying villagers to protect their own source of survival, the forest which provides the tigers food, water and shelter. In summary, conserving the natural habitat can help to prevent the extinction of tigers.
Last, making zoos become the habitat of tigers might be the only way to save the tigers if none of the solutions above is taken. Maybe after a few decades, Sumatran tigers could only be found in the zoos. Imagine an Asian father points to the tigers in the cage, while telling his son that the Sumatran tigers were once living in the wild and hunting for their food themselves. So, the visitors of zoo will be educated about tiger in the wild, thereby “contributing to public support for conservation efforts”
Now is the time to save these magnificent cats before they vanish from the earth forever. If we do not want humans to be the last creature on the earth, it is time to wake the public up now and take immediate action. Extinction of humans maybe is exaggerated but if watch from an angle of long-term, what will happen to the humans, the final stage of food chain, when halfway of this chain is broken? Each creature stands an important position in the eco-system which indirectly influences every members of the eco-system. Protecting tigers is not solely for the next generation but for humans in present now.

Recycling has been identified as one way to conserve resources. How might the approach to recycling differ between a developed country and a developing country? Choose two specific countries to illustrate your answer. The recycling procedure of developed countries is systematically arranged. For example, in Japan, garbage is separated into three types, burnable, non-burnable and recyclable. At least two kinds of disposable bins can be found at most places in Japan. This phenomenon can be hardly seen in developing countries. For instance, in most of the cities of China, the citizens do not categorize the kinds of trashes and not even make use of the rubbish bin provided. The habit of throwing rubbish everywhere exists due to the poor education of recycling among people. Engineers in Japan have now mastered the skill to recycle cell phone parts (“Gizmodo Team,” n.d.). Furthermore, the electronics recycling there is being processed under controlled conditions. In “E-Waste Around The Globe”(n.d. para.4), it is stated that in order to protect our atmosphere from the poisonous chemical, plastics must not be recycled. However, we cannot find any such controls in developing countries. Workers, even worse children, use their hands to do the recycling job in scrap yards. Developing countries often do not have the skills or infrastructure to deal with electronic waste safely. Like the area of Guiyu in China, people manually dismantle printer. This shocks the reporters of New York Times as they know the consequence of touching those chemical by hands, do not even mention how affecting the neighbouring communities and environment (E-Waste Around The Globe, n.d. para.10). In the end, recycling turns into a bad process instead of a good process. Reference: E-Waste Around The Globe (n.d.).

We can say that once we use any product, waste will be created at the same time. It looks impossible to prevent the appearance of the waste but what we can do is to manage the waste usefully and efficiently. For example, land filling is a traditional and common way that used easily found in many countries. Why do most of the developing countries using this method? Many of these countries, especially those having a large domain, use land filling to bury the waste as the least money and manpower consuming method. Each machine needs 1 operator to function. But, without a careful method to guide operators, the organic waste might leak out after a long time. Hazardous chemicals will endanger the environment and the health of citizens who live in the neighbouring area. However, a new system called zero waste is slowly turned to by many developed countries. Based on reducing the high pressure on the resources, zero waste is a good way because zero waste can be “reused, recycled and eve repaired” (Collins, 2002, p.25). On the other hand, the zero waste system can indirectly bring more development of the economy and technology, for building up the recovering facilities, working opportunities are created and research for technology will be rapidly processing. Besides, everyone can take part in the zero waste system. Citizens can choose to use the items which are made with recyclable materials. In short, zero waste system is better than land filling to handle waste because zero waste system will not do any harm to the environment and will save our earth from source drying.
For my country, Malaysia, land filling might be the better way to handle waste. It is because for now, Malaysia is still lacking scientists or engineers which are familiar with the zero waste system. Besides, most of the undeveloped area in Malaysia is rainforest area. It brings only disadvantages if uses these areas to bury waste. But from a long-term angle to see, zero waste is the best way. So, the government of Malaysia should promote the correct idea to the citizens for raising their awareness and slowly develop the zero system.

Yeah! Arsenal made history on Tuesday night by becoming the first English team to beat AC Milan at the San Siro.
Our pass to UCC!
For a long time, we stayed in the dressing room and waited for the rehearsal. 9am? Yaya.. our performance is at night 730pm but we have to rehearsal to get a perfect performance for all the audience. You can imagine whole day without any mobile network and any wireless broadband network. We are totally concentrate in our preparing. Of course, while we were waiting, we played some card games. I learned how to play Bridge and Bang!. (Haha.. I didn't skip any lecture or tutorial on Friday as i don't have any! XD)
After we finished our performance, we spent a long time in the dressing room. Cheering each other and taking photo with everyone. Our leader KimWong and WenYao gave us a long speech. It is touching!
