of facts and craps, news and views


So pagi tadi aku terdengar kat radio pasal benda ni. Then aku google and jumpa article ni dalam internet. Walaupun study ni dah buat last year, tp aku rasa still ok utk dikongsi dengan korang, kaki kaki carut semasa.

Menurut Encik Richard Stephens dari Keele University, England,

"It taps into emotional brain centers and appears to arise in the right brain, whereas most language production occurs in the left cerebral hemisphere of the brain”, he said to LiveScience.

"If people experience the emotion of fear to a significant degree … their pain tolerance increases," Mr Stephens said to ABC. "There seems to be something similar here. Swearing is emotional language. If it's not fear, it might be aggression."


Aku harap korang faham ape dia cakap sebab aku malas nak translate.
So menggunakan 67 student sebagai bahan uji kaji, dorang ni test bebudak ni dengan letakkan tangan bebudak ni dalam ais sejuk dan pada masa yg sama dorang dok mencarut-carut selama berjemaah tanpa henti-henti.

Lepas tu diulang balik perlakuan yang 'cool' itu tapi kali ni bebudak tu takleh mencarut, hanya boleh menggunakan bahasa biasa seperti 'pisang', 'kipas siling' atau 'pondok pak gad'.

Kesudahannya, bebudak ni dapat letak tangan dorang dalam ice tu lagi lama kalau mencarut, berbanding menggunakan bahasa biasa. Secara konklusi, pencarutan yang teratur dan teliti dapat meningkatkan toleransi manusia terhadap kesakitan dan meningkatkan heart rate, berbanding dengan tidak mencarut.

Jadi, lepas ni kalau jari anda tersepit kat pintu kereta, CARUTKAN AJEEE :)

p/s: jgn tunjuk budak-budak bawah 13 tahun artikel ni, nanti dorang dapat reference utk berhujah dengan parents atau cekgu di skolah.

Date: 2nd April, 2010
Venue: Studio Cafe, Wangsa Maju
Time: 9pm til the place owner chased us away.

Finally I got the chance of throwing my dream birthday party, people eating whilst listening to performance by my fellow celebrity-friends. I've been meaning to do that since last year and finally it came true this time around. Thanks to Studio Cafe. Even though it's no Planet Hollywood nor Hard Rock, but the ambience of that place pretty much suited my likings. And oh, the food was SCRUMPTIOUS!

I opened up the night with covers from Aizat (Lagu Kita), Neyo (Part of The List), Michael Buble (Havent Met You Yet) and One Republic (Come Home).


Initially there were 3 people agreed to perform on my birthday. But Ilya fell sick at the eleventh hour, and Cheng-cheng couldn't find the minus one for her songs, so I was left with Ema and myself to entertain the guests, which I thought was OK, since the turn ups wasn't that really encouraging.

But to my surprise and delight, Syai came up, and teamed up with Fauzan, Rafiq and 2 of their friends and boom, they conquered the stage, mic and the hearts of many. Superb spontaneous renditions of Careless Whisper and Belaian Jiwa, with powerful voice from Zhafran and great vocal back ups from the rest. I thought to myself, the night is going to be great.


Next up, Lynnz and Zira took the spotlight (which was impromptu as well) and sang Manisnya Senyummu by Elite and their own song, Asmara. I somehow wished the 2 third of Senoritas who was also the VIMA 2010 winner for Best Pop Group, sang their Malay cover of 'Wondergirls - Nobody'. Hehe

Next, it was Ema Hashim, the up and rising songwriter-cum-singer, melting the crowd with her sultry voice and smooth guitar playing. Her rendition of Use Somebody was definitely my favorite. And the audience also got the chance to hear her own number.


Syai took up the mic, singing Gigi's Terbang before Lokman finally gave up to the constant pressure from Elen and me and went up to the stage. Frankly speaking I'd never thought he would. I've always been a fan of him since the One In A Million and his single 'Namun Engkau Tahu' is one of the best! Lokman sportingly took the guitar and sang L.O.V.E and his own song called 'Perempuan', drooling the ladies in the crowd.



And the surprise of the night surely came in a small package. Siti Sarah, my childhood friend came to the party, despite being late, and went up to the stage and sang Happy Birthday song to me, in her own style. :)


All in all, I had a FABULOUS time and would like to thank all of you who came. Thanks for the presents, the well wishers and ultimately to all the performers. YOU GUYS ARE THE GREATEST :)


LOL.

Cute aint it?
Yesterday (7th April) is the International Beaver Day. According to www.science.blogdig.net:

The Beavers, Wetlands and Wildlife Organization is trying to show people how important beavers really are, and the group has produced an educational DVD and sent 1,000 copies to teachers all over the state of New York.

One member says the beaver is one of the most important wild animals for a number of reasons. First, because they build dams and prevent flooding. And second, because beavers protect us from greenhouse gas emissions
So hope you guys hugged all the beavers you came across yesterday. Hehe.

Not forgetting, 7th April was also the World Health Day. So yaw, kick off the smoking habits and head up to the treadmill yaw! :)

I AM OLD!

oh simple things.
where have you gone?

i'm getting older i need something to rely on.
:`)


will be celebrating my birthday alone tonight.
but no worries, im going back to KL tomorrow!

yippi ka yay!


p/s: truthfully, i just discovered those words today. hailstorm and hailstones. hehe see, how poor is my vocab? :)

anyway, the news about the hailstorm hitting KL (in Damansara and Mont Kiara) were fast circulating via Twitter this evening, with a Tweetphoto of it (damn i didnt know how to save a pic from there -_-). and u can also read the news here.

Malaysia Meteorological Department forecasting director Saw Bun Liong said hailstorms occasionally happen in Malaysia, but usually the pellets are very small and fall in a localised area.

“Some clouds can build until they are very high in the atmosphere. At certain altitudes, the cold will cause the water droplets to freeze and form ice.

“When it rains, the pellets fall down too fast to melt, causing hailstones,” Saw said.

and this happened just days after the same phenomena hit Perth, with the hailstones were reported to be as big as golf balls.


geez. i guess the mother nature is one super pissed off lady now. whatever it is,

hujan emas di negeri orang
best lagi hujan ice batu kat negeri sendiri.

heho

life update.

hello blog.

it's 2.00am and I'm still wide awake.
feeling a wee bit sleepy but there's an urge for me to update my life.
not necessarily for anyone to read or take notice.
but just to jot down whatever is happening, for my own future readings.

nothing much happened this weekend.
it's been awhile since i last spent my weekend in Sibu.
it's been months I think.
nothing extravagant occurred, just the same routine. house chores, laundry, car wash, watching live bands and all those insignificant shits.

perhaps one event worth mentioning was just the match between MU and Liverpool just now.
Healvia and her cabin crew guy friends had their night stop here in Sibu, so I brought them out and we watched the live match at this one restaurant with big screen. that was my first. since I have my astro at home, i rarely go out to watch football.
Sibu is not KL. we dont have mapleys here. even that restaurant that we went, closed operation just right after we left, which was about 11.30-ish. lame kan?
and oh, chelsea drew with fcking blackburn.
that left us 3rd in the title race. and all the MU and Arsenal fans will be celebrating that for sure.

so i guess thats about it for now.
and oh, al-fatihah to Yanie Mentor, who passed away just now for lung tumor.
another loss to our music industry.

rest in peace now, Yanie

To bebudak STAR: Weh ape cite nih?

hahaha









hello.

its been centuries since i updated my blog.
its been a hectic journey. tiring yes, but fun too.

so as i bade my farewell to the fabulous february, i also greeted hello to all the new people i met, planned or by chance. im not sure what did my horoscope say, but february filled up with new things. new places, new faces.

took the advantage of coming back to KL, and stepped my feet for the first time to Barsonic on Friday night, before headed to Werner's the next day, also for the first time.

even-though february has the shortest days in the year, it come short in terms of fun, i gotta say. easily one of the most balanced month ever. with the fun, but with also the job related stress, as everybody was chasing their KPIs and prove their worth to the management. so was I. :)

but that didnt stop me from having uber times of my own. february also broke my personal records, as the most beaches visited in a month. (lame record i know hehe)
the month started when i was in KK, then went to Kuching, and Langkawi. not forgetting to Miri in March. that might answer the 'hey why are you getting darker' questions



whatever it is, goodbye fabulous february.
march is giving me hell thus far, boo you march
:)

Hilang

Posted by +faliqfahmie comments (2)

Hari ni
Aku rasa macam nak hilang.

Nak hilang dari semua orang
Nak hilang dari korang korang
Nak pergi tempat takde orang kenal
Buat salah pun, takkan ada rasa kesal
Tempat ni buat aku rasa sesak
Perut senak, tekak muak

Aku sebenarnya macam dah letih
Ingatkan dah berjalan, tapi masih bertatih
Dah cuba berlari, tapi tak sampai-sampai
Dah cuba berenang, masih terkapai-kapai

Ini hidup aku, aku yang kena urus
Tapi aku mcm tak bole fikir dengan lurus
Benda kecik, nampak besar
Benda halus, nampak kasar

Mungkin aku perlukan sokongan
Mungkin bantuan, mungkin pertolongan
Yang tengah memberi memang ada
Tapi aku tak tau sampai bila

Sebab mak penah cakap, orang akan berubah
Hari ni baik, esok hilang dah
Walaupun aku benci nak mengaku
Aku rasa aku pun kadang-kadang macam tu

Aku bukan nak perhatian seratus peratus
Kan aku dah cakap, aku takleh fikir lurus
Cukuplah dengan orang berbisik kat aku dan pesan
'Takyah hilangkan diri, kitorang kan ada, kawan-kawan'
