CELEBRATING LIFE

Our male rapper, T.I was sentenced to a year and a day in jail by a Northern Georgia District judge on on 27th March for felony weapons charges (his October 2007 arrest on the eve of the BET Hip-Hop Awards), calling the rapper's plea deal "experimental" but a phenomenal success.

"T.I. is expected to go to jail voluntarily within six to eight weeks but won’t make it their before May 19 due to performance obligations. However, T.I. very much impressed the court with his attitude and action turnaround since the arrest. The rapper has met and helped several humanitarian causes in Atlanta." - Anything Hollywood.

Well starting from here I expected of a reduction of the punishment.

Thanks to the plea deal that he made last March, he would have to complete 1,000 horus of community service before sentencing, pay a $100,000 fine and agree to do 500 horus of community service after he's done with his time in prison (which is the 1 year and a day).

According to court's reports, he has done 1,030 hours of community service, 305 days of his required one-year home confinement and He was required to pay a $300 fine immediately and make due on his $100,000 fine. Gee this amount of money that needs to be paid...speechless.

I guess rappers are more prone to have problems with the law about weapons eh?

My dad told me just now that his friend, was robbed before noon last Friday if I'm not mistaken. He was from kk going to the Tanjung Aru beach where there was this car side by side with him on the road. This friend, who happened to be an ustaz, pulled by the Petronas station on the left. The car followed and 2 big size, chinese men rushed out and straight away hit the poor guy in his own car!

This is real ya, no kidding! There were 2 chinese women in their car, waiting la. The men beat the crack out of the guy whom my dad say isn't the one who fights back. He got fractures and his eyes like bulging out my dad said and for that, he's in ICU now.

It seems like they asked for RM5,000 from the poor Beaufort guy but they gained RM500 cash with his handphone only. Geez, what's wrong with those people??? Just take the money la, why wana beat him up like crazy kan??

And more, the petrol station people who were inside the shop tried to help but got hit too, instead. What a sad thing, and those robbers sure will get the punishment that they deserve when they get caught! May Allah bless the poor ustaz. Amin.

I think if you're quick-witted, you can hit the road again and drag the stupid people or you can break his arm or what ma. Aih but I don't know, maybe I would've panick if somebody suddenly attack me from my own windwoshield man. So be careful when you're there or anywhere near there aite! Spread this around!


Stay safe.

Today is Earth Hour Day! Just now, when I off my lights in the house and I saw my neighbours did the same, I felt like we are together you know, like in a group, like a sense of belonging to each other. We are in the same path, the same mission to save the earth. I think this event is really effective, not just in preserving our earth but to also bonds relationships between your neighbours! Don't you think so? If everybody in Malaysia does the same, that would save a real lot of electricity and that amount will multiple when everybody in the whole wide world does it!

Here's a facebook Earth Hour Fan Profile. I have followed, you?

Theres a youtube account for it too! You can subscribe for it's upcoming videos! =D Hitz.fm is supporting it too! They were at IKEA, Mutiara Damansara, PetalingJaya on for that event!

Speaking of Hitz.fm, to all David Arculeta's fans in Malaysia, load up your phones and start sing your way to his showcase for the whole of next week!

I have done this product's review before in my note in Facebook, but I still wana update my review here~!

The best thing about this product is that it's so universal that I simply couldn't think of anything else but this when it comes to an all-rounder product~!

I use it to soothe my skin when it itches or becomes irritated (I rarely get these, but scratching results in scars that will take a long time to be gone you know!). It works real nice when i cool it first in the freezer, then apply it. Feels like heaven I tell ya! I used to use it as a shaving gel, it worked real nice till I use the plucking method instead. I think it's better since plucking pulls the roots out instead of shaving the top layer part only.

I also used it for my hair when I ran out of hair spray and gels and I needed something that will hold my hair in place. Too bad it didn't hold it very long in air-conditioned room. =)


And of course, when I run out of moisturizers, I use it! For my body of course, the product isn't THAT 100% pure aloe vera, it still has chemicals in it. Here are the ingredients: Aloe Vera gel, Trethanolamine, Tocopheryl Acetate, Carbomer 940, Tetrasodium EDTA, DMDM Hydantoin, Diazolidinyl urea.


This is a gel, and it's more to water than oil. It's cool and watery but still has the gel-like feeling. When applied, it leaves your skin feeling lightly moisturized and cooler, even when it's applied at room temperature! Your skin will feel cooler and supple for a while, and this is great to freshen up and flush out all your tiredness away after a hectic day!

It's sold about RM10-RM15 here in kota kinabalu, I don't know about other places la. =)

I just watched Partition, just now in Star Movies.

Here's the sypnosis of it.
"A love story played out against a backdrop of political and religious upheaval. At the end of the Second World War, 38 year-old career soldier Gian Singh( Jimi Mistry) resigns his commission with the British Indian Army and returns to his childhood village, near the border with Pakistan. Haunted by the memories of war, he seeks a quiet life of farming, solitude and prayer. His peace is shattered in August 1947, however, when India is granted independence. A new border is drawn between Hindu-dominated India and Muslim-dominated Pakistan, and the region is torn apart by massacres fueled by ancient animosities. In the midst of one such massacre, Gian finds Naseem(Kristin Kreuk), a 17-year-old Muslim girl, and takes her under his protection. They gradually find themselves drawn to each other but, as their remarkable story plays out, the obstacles to their happiness prove all but insurmountable."

"Partition, a co-production between Canada, the United Kingdom and South Africa, is a sweeping, historical drama set against the partition of India and based on the real life experiences of director Vic Sarin’s family." Wow, no wonder it's so great. It's so great that I recommend it to all of ya!

The movie touches the heart and I do feel the suffering and the political life, including the feel of a mother for her child while fighting for the love of her life. I feel ya, Kristin. I rate this movie 9/10. It's as close to perfect~! =)

Doesn't she look gorgeous in a saree? My, it's breathtaking!


She looks like Aishwarya Rai here don't you think?

There were parts of the movie not screened. Seems like Star Movies cut the love making scene, not that intense but the point is, they cut it and here's the missing action =) (p/s: He's so nice without the turban! Looks like a gladiator man!)

The movie is sold in DVD format in Amazon for $26.99. It's after 10% discount people~

Today I saw more stuff in Sweet Daily~! There's a new brand muffin called Yogurt Raisin Muffin! But my god...it's Rm3.5! Tidak jadi I beli terus..Maybe they use a lot of the yogurt in, dats why. But hey, how can they bake a yogurt?? I mean, yogurt, if you heat it, it will be ruined right? So no point buying...


Here's a row of cookies replacing the lovely cakes~! My god don't they look yummy~!


Here's Almond Chocolate. Do you notice some printed phrases on the cup? (Yeah, it's a cup. They put the cookies, wrapped in plastic in it).


"FOR YOU- I wish you eternal happiness and the bless of health". Isn't this a perfect gift for somebody, like your colleagues?


Walnut Oat's next to it~!


Rich Cheese with Poppy Seed!


Flax Seed Cheese Stick~!



And here's Oat Raisin~! These cookies are sold at RM10 each and are wrapped in a transparent plastic and put into a cup! Tied with ribbon some more! =)


Plain Man~! Another addition to the Men of Sweet Daily~! It taste's the same to me..but my guy said it's not and he prefered the Poppy Seed Cheese.


Look~! Here are another additions to the family!


Chocolate Chiffon~!


Small cakes, i would call it- PERIOD. The right side look like Sweet Potato, the other I think might be chocolate.


Here's Castella, priced at RM4. It's soft, like a cake with less butter. It's light, I can tell.


Wholemeal Raisin Scone, RM 4.50. I don't know why, but it's hard too.


Here are cookies, the size as same as the Men, but only in different shapes. Each is RM6. They come in t-shirts saying LOVE in different styles and the Men all dressed up! So cute la~! Too bad Mr Richard Kim (the owner) didn't let me to take pictures again after i took this one, the last one.. =( Nevermind, maybe he thinks I'll violate his privacy or what, but all I'm doing is just talking about it, helps him to advertise also right? He doesn't know this, and I don't feel like telling. =)

"For her funeral, it is likely that there will be a procession through two local villages, while the church service will be beamed to TV screens to be watched by crowds outside. "

Her death was on the British newspapers today. Flowers are flourishing at the gates of the Tweed's.

"Prayers were said for her at local churches, including St. John the Baptist at nearby Buckhurst Hill, where it is likely her funeral will be held.

She was a "kind of Princess Di from the wrong side of the tracks," observed actor-director Stephen Fry."

Jade Goody, 27, has passed away earlier this morning at just before 4am, according to Max Clifford, her publicist and a friend of hers. She was sleeping when she passed away. (sorry for the usage of the PASSED AWAY phrase, I think it's rude to say DIED)

Jack Tweed, her husband, and her mother, Jackiey Budden, were there when she passed away. I don't know about her kids but I think they'll make it through, as she had gave them hints that she would 'go away' soon. Poor children.

Here's something about her and her story on the disease:

"Goody, 27, rose to fame on the British version of the reality show Big Brother in 2002, and was rarely out of the British newspapers and gossip magazines in the years that followed. But her story went global when she discovered she was suffering from cervical cancer – while appearing on the India version of the reality show in August.

Then, in February, she learned that the disease had spread and she only had a short time to live. Since then, her achievement has been to raise awareness of her cancer and how prevention could help others," Clifford said.

He adds, "Her legacy will be that a lot of women owe their lives to Jade Goody because of her public announcement and battle against cervical cancer," which has led to increased knowledge of it and the screening necessary to catch it."

All my condolences goes out to Tweed's family and Goodie's.

Yesterday I bought the Men of Sweet Daily! (Poppy Seed Cheese, Coco Man and Coconut Man) The Poppy Seed Cheese and Coconut Man is hard to extinguish which one is which one tho, although both of them look the same and tastes just the same, a bit difference only which is the cheese, it makes the Man to be a bit more cheesy, you know what I mean?

The Coco Man on the other hand, is really chocolatey minus the sweetness you find on the usual chocolate that you drink or eat.


And what I love about Sweet Daily is that they use paper bags instead of the pollution-maker, plastic! Great~! Support the environment, save mother earth!

I give a 5/10 for Coco Man (I don't really like a bitter cookie) and 8/10 for the other two~! Cuz they really taste alike. As for the Coco Man, I suggest maybe they can add stuff to make it sweet, like choc chips or walnuts, you know?

Sweet Daily opens on 27th March 09! It's next week! But now it's opened, only not complete yet, armed with cookies and cakes only. They'll get the muffins soon, the owner said. =) I have been waiting eagerly with little patience in me, watching that shop taking it's shape from scrap to beautifully decorated walls, comfy sofas, cute little wedding cakes, flourished with flowers and bride and groom figurines, delicious and healthy cakes on the counter and of course, the decorations- so cute~!


Here's a picture of the entrance! On your right would be the cookies and decorations (in forms of wedding cakes, real cute and pretty!).

Here are the cakes above the cookies!











All are so pretty that I wanted to post only two of them, but then I decided to post all of them! They are so pretty!


And here's a deco on the right side of the entrance! There's a board saying "Everyday Anyday Sweet Daily". Sweet~


Next to it is the cookies!So far they made these for customers!


Clockwise: Poppy Seed Cheese, Coco Man, Coconut Man. Each of them are RM1.50 only!


Here's Walnut Oat and Oat Raisin!


And here's Raisin Chocochip and Wholemeal Oat Choco Chip! Each of the cookie pack is RM10! Not bad huh?


Here are some of the cakes (so far)! Deliyummy!










Aren't they just yummy??? We got samples everyday man from the owner! Everytime we go in his shop, he gives us free slices! Yesterday we had chocolate and sweet potato (boy that was real soft!). Today we had cheese souffle and blueberry cake. My, the blueberry is a real one, no doubt. And the cheese, my, it melts in the mouth, just like Secret Reipe's. But it crumbles, my guess is because the shop's a healthy one. It says at the door- trans fat free, uses pure belgian chocolate, uses butter only (no margarine) and no use of shortening. The price of the cakes are okay, really okay. Cheese, it's acceptable the fact that they are expensive and boy it's real tasty. Secret's also priced at the same level, so it's okay.


Here's another cute thing to show. It's situated at the further corner of the shop.


Here's a cake with red blood, white, light pink and purple flowers on it! How cute is it?? Next to it is an angel!


Here's the cake on top of the cabinet~! Awwwww~~~ I think it's because his wife is running the shop with him! =)


Here's the decorations on top of the cakes' display! These korean people really know how to decorate man..Jealous me.


As you can see, the shop's having a promo (they call it Temporary Opening) on the cakes, 10%! Not bad huh? Like I said, the shop will be opened officially on 27th March! =)


Here's the couple bear next to the counter. Awww..

So whadaya think? Thinking of getting a cake here for my bday. =) Oh ya it's situated in Damai, just across my academy in damai point, Rozsall (above watsons). It's next Dayang Restaurant. You can never miss that cute lil shop!
