Biology books. Which is the best?

In your opinion, which biology book is the best?

1. Campbell biology
2. Cambridge Biological Science (low price edition)
3. Cambridge Biological Science 1 & 2
4. Pelangi biology
5. Longman biology
6. Oxford Advanced biology
7. Pearson biology
8. Mcgrawhill biology from Raven and Johnson

Mcgrawhill -Raven & Johnson Biology book

For me, I still favor all of the oversea books. Especially Mcgrawhill biology and Cambridge biological science. Lots of input from them. Campbell.. I think it has less info and the worst case is the heavy and bulkiest book. I think it is the heaviest book in my house presently. Even some of the readers suggested that Campbell to be divided into two small books.

Closing Ceremony of Orientation Day

Today is a special day for all form sixers where we were allowed or forced (the reluctance) to wear traditional dress. I admit that I'm one of those who reluctant to wear. So what did I wear in this morning? Ta.. da.. a baju kurung (Malay dress). Foremost, I really regretted of not bringing my camera to school, at least I can take my friends photos and look how graceful they were when wearing traditional dress.

Two seniors were announced to be the winner of the most favourite seniors, they were syazana the prefect and a chubby guy of Robotic Club's chairman. The funny thing was Hasrin, the MC mistakenly pronounced Mr Jamali name, he pronounced: " Mr Jamali binti ....(a female name) where was supposed to be "Mr Jamali bin ....(a male).. haha everybody was shocked yet amused by the situation. "Hahaha!", we laughed.. Before the ceremony end, teacher warned us about our attire. One important message from her which I coundn't forget was " wearing baju kurung must wear sport shoes!" Ha? So odd.

Later, we went to canteen for a feast (my breakfast). I was so ravenous at that time, can't wait to eat. Same went to Katrine whom was the first to ask me whether I was hungry. After gobbled up the main course - chicken rice, we go for the next menu, the dessert-Malay cakes and watermelon. Then, Shafikah offered us some chocolate cup cakes made by her. I accepted that offer appreciatively although I can't eat anymore.

After that, we took photograph together at the telephone booth, Chairatul was seen so happy to pose with the public phone... 'I have no idea ~_~''

Lastly, I went back to class to take my belongings and attending Chinese Society meeting. Reached home around 2.20pm.

Yeah! My Mom's back!

Finally, through 3 weeks of waiting. Finally she reached home. I asked her whether grandpa has fully recovered from the surgery? She replied:" No, there is still a little rash at the buttock there (he was a diabetic), but the doctor said he was allowed to go home. You know, I get a lesson from my mom. Care for your parents! Although sometimes the elderly are very troublesome like my grandma(my father side) but that is our responsibility as the children. The most important thing to care for is their diet, don't ever let them becoming diabetics. Why? First, if there is any small wound on them if not noticed the wound area will extend, causing gangrene.

Ghost Story

My Indonesian baby sitter (my mama) told me some ghost stories. About 'hantu kongkong' who is a female becoming a ghost after she was dead from giving birth.

The first story which she told me a long time a go. I still remember:

Mama:
When I was working with a Datuk Mentar Hashim, there was a friend of mine, he worked as a security guard at night. At the middle of the night, he heard someone calling him for help. There was a female , she was about to give birth, she cried for help and was in great pain. The security guard quickly took her to hospital . But then, he was unconscious and when he woke up he found that he was sleeping on the grave for the whole night! Which means the ghost had carried(cheated) him a long way to the grave. No joke! It was a true story that happened at the grave located nearby the old place of Dewan Pustaka, Kuala Lumpur.

When I was small she always tell me ghost stories, she was a very good story teller/narrator. Sometimes I can't sleep after listening to her story, it was so eerie.

Today she told me about this hantu kongkong again.

Mama:
During childhood time I saw a ghost. It happened at night in the dark street. A female ghost whose resemble a human took a ride on a bullock cart, when it reached her destination she paid the driver with Indonesian note (rupiah) and went off. It was so normal that the driver not even aware that she was a ghost. Suddenly something happened.... the note turned out to be a scrap of zinc roof!

So spooky...
I hope I can sleep comfortably tonight..
Bye, good night!

Is it wrong to call people in full name?

Ｉ get scolded by my senior this afternoon. The senior is Sook Hui, she owned a fairly top position in Chinese Language Society. She was my former senior too in my previous school SMK(P) Air Panas. Ｉ admit that she is not a nice people at all. When she was in the Science society in my previous school my first impression about her- "she was so arroganｔ＂Ｉ can judge that straight away by looking at her face and the way she talk. I also wondered how she was chosen to hold of the top posts. During chinese society meeting today, we were all busy with the preparation for the Chinese Singing Competition. I had some doubt about the envelope which Kar Yen asked me to do, approach her to ask for consultation. I called :" Low Kar Yen...blablabla.." then Sook Hui turned her head facing me angrily and said :"Do you know that it is very impolite to call people in her full name?" Then, I apologise to her. She added:" you say sorry to her(kar yen) not me!" I thought she was the one who was so mind about 'it'. Anyway then, I asked Kar yen was she so mind about 'it'.. She said:"No." That made me felt a bit guilty about it.

When my mom will come back?

1,2,3,4 day, a week, a fortnight or a month?
I lost my patience to wait already.
She always said I will be back tomorrow, tomorrow..
But she broke the promises.
Hopefully she will come back soon.
I cannot stand living in this quiet and lonely house.
I went maniac by non stop buying books
In order to forget the loneliness..
I understand her,
she need to take care her old dad,
who just underwent a leg surgery,
who was also a diabetic,
may took a long time to recover.
Just pray in the morning and night
that he can get well
and my mom will come back soon.
