What's In A Name?

Choosing your child's name can be something difficult. Of course you want something that has good meaning or reflects the level of your child cuteness. Giving pretty names in hope that she will grow pretty perhaps? 

 I for one prefer something short, sweet and meaningful. There's no point giving such a long, complicated names when you are only going to call your child with one name. No one is going to call their full name and you are only making their school life miserable. Some kids can't even spell their name because their parents are too creative in name-giving. Nanti sudah besar, mau isi borang pun susah sebab tidak cukup ruang. 

 Kids can be really mean. One of their favourite game is name-calling. When i was in primary school, some boys called me Cynthia Setan instead of Jetan. Anyway, moral of the story is, find a name that'll not be a joke.

 While i was doing data collection in villages in Bau, i came across A LOT of looonnnnggg creative names i wonder where these sub-urban parents got the idea to name their child like that. Clayviea Ivy, Oddillia, Anelficia, Allvyena Grexel, Michael Slassly, Ferterchrista, Fisrisco, Gouffry, Gebydefny, Berthphilltiora.  Creative huh? Mau sebut pun susah. Nama canggih-manggih nanti nenek2, datuk2 di kampung tidak pandai sebut. Nama macam orang putih, canggih-manggih, nanti last2 kena panggil cimut la, dodok la, ehek la, kadut la, cemek la. Ada yang sudah besar panjang pun masih kena panggil baby. 



These are google pictures of funny names.
Flavour Balls? Hahaha


Nice....

Kadang2 cara sebutan orang di kampung memang lari alignment. Satu nama yang agak bahaya di kalangan orang Bidayuh ialah "Sophia". nanti datuk nenek sumbuk babai sebut "Shopiak".....yang membawa maksud....anu perempuan...

 Ok byeee

Porn Puaka Di Gym

Tajuk mengundang kontroversi Sis ni bukan apa rajin pergi gym, selain nak bersenam, iols juga suka mencuci mata. Bukan setakat mencuci mata dengan jantan helok (I'm still hoping sebab gym iols pegi tu SENDUU), sis juga suka melihat gegadis yang fefeeling gedik dengan bermacam fesyen di gym tu. Biasanya gegadis newbie ni macam cendawan. Muncul sekejap di kala azam baru masih utuh yakni di awal tahun atau selepas perayaan di mana memasing nak kurus.  Tunggulah 2 bulan kemudian langsung tak nampak batang hidung ataupun buttcheeks. Eh? Sebenarnya salah satu benda Cik Panda nak cerita pasal butt cheeks. Butt cheeks are absolutely NO NO except at the pool or beach when you are in your swimsuit.  Cik Panda tak jealous la uols sebab Cik Panda tak hingin pun nak ada bontot yang jelly welly tu.

Otot Lagi Berat Daripada Lemak?

Otot Lagi Berat Daripada Lemak? Pernah tak korang hadapi situasi macam ni. Bersenam dah all out, membanting tulang dan tenaga di gym. Dalam semangat nak lose weight tu, timbang diri setiap jam, setiap hari! Disebabkan dah berabis workout dan mengamalkan diet rumput rumpai, korang pun expect berat turun kan? Tiba-tiba bila naik atas penimbang tu, berat tak turun pun. Maintain je. Kadang-kadang lagi teruk. BERAT NAIK PULAK!! Bila terjadi perkara macam ni, korang pun berjalan perlahan-lahan ke sudut bilik, dan mengerekot di dalam bilik yang gelap sambil mengenang nasib. Sangat mematahkan semangat, berkecamuk jiwa dan raga. I know. I've been there. CPPS pun pernah mengalami perkara yang sama Workout dah betul, diet pula calorie deficit. You have done everything right but your weight INCREASED! Rasa nak putus asa dan minum racun rumpai. Kemudian ahli keluarga, PT atau kakak cleaner gym dengan penuh rasa kasihan cuba memujuk. "Hey! don't worry. You are gainin...

Bikinication: Project Phuket Part 2

In case you have not read the part 1, click HERE .  So on the 3rd day we went island hopping to Phi Phi Island where the movie "The Beach" featuring Leonardo Dicaprio was filmed.  Bought the package while wandering around Patong Beach but you can get these island hopping packages anywhere in Phuket.  Like many other things in Phuket, you have to bargain. We got our package for 1050 Baht/pax which included transport to and fro hotel, lunch and refreshments, snorkeling equipment and covers Maya Bay (where the filming was), Loh Samah Bay, Pileh Lagoon, Viking Cave, Monkey Beach and Khai Nok Island.  We only stop and got down the boat at Maya Bay, another lagoon i don't know what's the name for snorkeling, Phi Phi Don for lunch and Khai Nok Island.  They picked us up at 7.45am from the hotel and all of us gathered in a place for a briefing. There were 3 boats that day for all of us,  then departed to the jetty which was about 1...

Guide To First Dates For Dummies

Guide To First Dates For Dummies While I'm not exactly an expert in relationships, first dates, and stuff, I've had a few learning experiences and a panel of consultants.  I feel the need to share with you, especially guys, a few do's and don'ts of a first date.  Basically to give you some idea of what girls expect on a first date and to save you from embarrassment and disappointments from not securing a second date.  1. Dress To Impress DO NOT underestimate the power of dressing. You only have one chance at making a good first impression.  You don't have to wear something expensive or trendy. Just something tidy, presentable, smart, or casual. Something you are comfortable in. Jeans, a nice shirt and shoes would be fine.  No short pants, slippers, and ratty t-shirts. If you want to wear shorts, wear them with a shirt (with collar) and shoes instead. Hair should be presentable, facial hairs trimmed and tidy, no bad breath or body odour.  Use cologn...
