Switch On Xmas's Lights

Christmas is the celebration of Christ Jesus's Birthday.

UK, as a Christ country treats this season extremely important. It is a season of giving, and definitely a season of pocket empty as well. Shopping mall has extended their operation hours, streets are flooded with crowds, and most importantly discounting taps are everywhere in the shop.

In Malaysia, we love Christmas too because it is a holiday, it is a fun gathering time, it is a hyper happening time, it is party time and etc. Shops open till midnight, transports service will extend till midnight.

In UK, shops will be closed on 25th. Transports will be stopped on 25th. The streets should be empty at night. It is a family gathering. It is definitely churches' christmas dinner or party. Houses display Xmas trees, parents prepare gifts for their children, thinking to have a family feast together, and also attending churches, worship Lord and etc.

Normally streets will become empty after 5pm. The only going place will be pubs, casinos or take away shops. The life is boring, not as hectic as Malaysia.

The photos was taken at around 7pm. The sky turns to dark as earlier as 5pm. I hate photography at night, because it is extremely challenging to handle it. But I think I m getting better controlling it.

The venue is Drake Circus, and its surroundings. It is just opposite my University.

Enjoy the photos.

Merry Christmas

How to train your dragon (Movie)

If you said it is a waste to watch animation or cartoon in cinema, I will reject your idea. Firstly, most of the animation strongly project good moral ethics or values for the reference of audiences especially children. During the childhood, children ought to differentiate the right and the wrong distinctively, neither grey area nor in between. Value always serves as a guideline for us to oblige, not a compulsory because decision is still lied in the hand of human. This movie secretly intruded my deepen heart. It talked about relationship, a bond between dragon and human. The main character, Hiccup chose to save the night fury (dragon) because he saw the fear from its eye. Even a human, we got attracted or closer with people who are similar to us because we feel we able to understand each other better compared to differences. The flow of movie discussed the process of rejection, acceptance, understand and devotion in a relationship. When we are just a stranger for each other, we are re

Handmade ART

Handmade is one of my interest since young. I love art which includes drawing, coloring, making cards and etc. I used to make cards for my friends during secondary school times. Now, I seldom did due to lack of time. It takes time to complete an art work. Thus, I only do when I am free. After reading other people blog, I felt like putting my handmade artwork in my blog..just want to reflect my memory.. Too bad, I did not take photos of my art piece last time. I only left 2 with me..So..have a look.. "Lion" - bookmark Underwater world

Am I supposed to conform?

Conform to the rules because you have no choice over it. You conform, because you believe in it. For example, bible, quran or Buddhist book. Religious people are practicing those rules and might apply it into real life situation. What if you are conform to it due to the other restriction? Today I went to one of the universities in Malaysia. Majority of students are Islamic students. I am not allowed to enter due to my dress code. I wore decently, with a pant which length almost to the ankle. I had been rejected to enter the library because their rule is your dress code must be more than ankle. I respect your dress code. But, It isn't a bit unreasonable to just stop me from entering. I did not know about the dress code before that. At least, give us a chance. We came from so far just want to get journals out from your library, why can't the person talked or told us nicely? What is the purpose you divide the seat far away from male to female. People are not following. What if you
