Illusion: Fast and Slow

I saw something interesting from Chia Yi's blog.

What's so special of the photo above?

In the photo, you are seeing moving forward in a places that full of rooms at the both side, right?

Now, try to cover the both side of the photo with your finger.

Okay, and now, cover the center of the photo.

Notice anything?

When you cover the both side, it move slower.

When you cover the center part, it move faster.

Interesting?

MAGIC!!!

520 for Year 2013

Today's is 20th May 2013. Many people are posting '520' in Facebook. If 520 is read in Mandarin, it sounds like 'I love you. A lot of people are expressing their love to their love ones today.

Nothing too special I did today. 

It is birthday for one of my greatest friend. I delivered a birthday gift to her. 

After I back home, I continue looking on the stock market.

Nothing special as well in stock market. The market is good like previous days.

But suddenly, in final half minutes of the pre-close session. NTPM (a stock that I am heavily invest in currently) matched at RM0.520! 

I am so happy to it. NTPM closed at RM0.520 on 520 (20 May)! 

I LOVE YOU, NTPM!

Wonder why I am so happy to see it to close at RM0.520? Haha. I have my own reason.

Teacher's Day 2013

2 days ago, it was Teacher's Day. 

Last year, I planned that I could actually visited my form 6 teachers during this years' Teacher's Day. But unfortunately, I was busy on Teacher's Day. I went out in the morning, meeting people and attending talk organised by RHB Investment (formerly known as OSK Investment) until late night. 

Luckily in the morning, I manage to send a email to Mr. Krishna.

Mr. Krishna is one of the best teachers I ever meet in my life. He was my English teacher when I was learning English in Cambridge Language Centre.

As I mention in my previous post...

- A Chat with Mr. Krishna

- Happy Teacher's Day

- Met Mr. Krishna in Gurney Plaza

I mentioned that I hate English previously. He is the ones making me get interested into English. And now, I love reading, thank to him.

13th General Election of Malaysia

Yesterday was a big day to Malaysia. It's the 13th GENERAL ELECTION of Malaysia. 

A lot of people are hoping for a change with opposition party's slogan 'UBAH!'. 

It was my first time casting vote to choose the candidate I want for state and federal government. 

There are several new policies were implemented for the election. One of it is the usage of indelible ink. The indelible ink will be painted on our finger to show that we have voted. This is to avoid a person to vote for more than one time.

See! This is evidence that I have voted.

However, I am not sure why it was called as 'indelible ink'. After I washed my hand, then the 'indelible ink' disappear. It didn't happen to me only, but almost all the people.

Last night was an exciting night. My dad, my brother and I were checking updates for the result of election.

There were a lot of rumours on the results. But I was waiting for the official result from SPR.

A lot of people are hoping for a change, but their dream doesn't come true.

Barisan National continues to be the federal government by winning 133 seats.

For the states, Pakatan Rakyat won in Penang, Kelantan and Selangor, while others were won by Barisan National.

And today, after I woke up and log into Facebook. I saw this picture appear in many people's profile picture.

A lot of people changing their profile picture into black. People are disappointed with the 'dirty polling'.

And today, I couldn't wait to see how stock market react to the election result.

The market shocked me!

It shot up 130 points in 5 minutes after the market opens! I never such scenario before since I started my journey of investment!

Shopping In Popular Bookstore

It has been a long time I didn't buy any book. Yesterday, I went to Popular Bookstore, Gurney Plaza to buy some books.

I saw 'Life of Pi' and I bought it.

The movie was being screened in cinema few months ago. I thought the movie is a boring one. I never thought of watching. But yet, I watched it. I never regret. It was a great movie. There are a lot of meaning behind the story. I love this kind of movie. And so, I thought of buying the book. Finally now, I bought it.

Besides 'Life of Pi', I bought other books as well. But most of them are books relating to investment.

Well, I actually still have a number of books that I haven't read. From now onward, I think I shall spend more time on reading. Or else, I will be wasting my money in buying books.

April of Year 2013

Looking back my blog, then only I found out, I have never been updating my blog for more than one month.

Those who knows me well or those who follow my Facebook posts would know that I have been going through a lot of critical moment last month. I would say, last month, April 2013 is one of the most critical months in my life. A lot of big things, either good ones or the bad ones, happened which may give me a big turning point.

In mid of April, something big happened to me. I am terribly sad. I hardly sleep. I almost gave up a lot of things. Fortunately, by having new goal, I am fine now. Thinking back, that might me happened with some reason. Because of that, I realised a lot of thing. And it pushes myself toward some transformation.

Once after the incident, I started aggressive transformation. It is going to be carried out this month. This transformation might be tough, but I have no choice. That's the only way for me to push myself to next stage as well as towards the new goal I set.

I have started this step, I will not take the U-turn anymore. What I am going to do now, is fighting towards the new goal. That's all.

Lady and gentlemen, please wish me good luck.
