Forehead kiss


I always want to have a forehead kiss. No doubt a kiss on the forehead is a very tender gesture because it isn't somewhere you're normally kissed and your forehead is usually ignored.

From the first date to wedding day, kisses are very important. They can tell you a lot about a person. Kisses show passion, energy or a lack thereof. In the stages of a relationship, the French kiss is the favorite. It is a great tool for measuring chemistry and it can be as passionate as you make it. For me, I think forehead kiss is the most romantic kisses of all. A kiss on the forehead symbolizes love in its purest form, untainted with the pitfalls of romance. It conveys warmth and compassion better than the latter actually. Even though some say it is equivalent to the kiss of death, friend’s care or mommy’s kiss, but still I prefer it. I’m not saying that I don’t like French kiss. I love French kiss but I’m more to forehead kiss. It just that I feel secure, tenderly love, personal and protected when someone I love gives me that kisses. It will always give me a reassuring feeling. I don’t want to have a kiss that last for that moment. The moment when we had a great kiss together then the next day, we forget everything. Apparently kissing on the forehead means “I want to be with you forever”. So, each time I barely stare at my love one, I can feel and remember those meaning words.



My rule, do not kiss me on the forehead unless you are in love with me!

Morning! Morning!

" Good morning! Good morning! Good morning to you.
Good morning! Good morning! to you and you and you. "
(heart singing children song, I miss my mommy!!)

My mom teach Music despite of English. She likes collecting the children songs. Too many of her collection sometimes  make me feel like my home is a kinder garden or nursery. Just the matter of no children, that's make the differences. I join my mom twice in conducting action song since I study at Labuan Matriculation on 2008. Based on my experience, it's interesting and I'm having a great moment with it. The tough task was to handle the chaos, not every students would insist directly to my command. You know how students behave especially year 1, 2 and 3. But when they treat me like their "mom", "aunt" or "big sister", honestly my heart melt. My sensitivity make us easy to get along. I love to see some of  them act friendly, talkative and actively during rehearsal or practice session.  They look so cute for both boys and girls. Now, my mom didn't participate in action song no more as she already transferred to another school, St. Anthony this year. Last 2 years was my last action song with them.

Oh my! it's 7 a.m., I watch the sunrise right through my window and I can hear bird's chirping beautifully outside my house. What a wonderful morning!! Today my course mate are having their trip to Batang Ai-Sri Aman-Bintulu-Gua Niah-Miri. Its kind of weird to me as I'm not joining them this semester. I miss my friends, its been awhile I didn't meet them. I know this trip is the last trip for my batch. I really sorry for not taking that core subject. I plan to have it during my extend. So now I have to not thinking of it even though I really wish I can go.  Even for a day, it's meaningful and memorable to me.

P/S to Munyit Gals, Julan and Jovinia: Take a good care of yourselves and enjoy. May God bless your journey this morning. If you are on your way to Gua Niah, I know all of you will pass by my "rumah panjai sebelah dadi ku". Nama rumah panjai nya; Rumah Muyang!! :)

Just an attraction, not love!

Taxonomy of Vascular Plants Practical (18.2.2011)

Zingiberales order is what I learn on  that day. During the practical session, we had to distinguish the inflorescence of each family  by drawing and labeling the specimen and also determine the floral formula. 

The Zingiberales order is made up of 8 families, mostly tropical plants that are commonly grown as ornamental. They also have culinary and medicinal uses. Specific characteristics which distinguish the Zingiberales from the other plants include;

  • Rhizomatous herb

  • Young leaf roll and present or midrib

  • Present of ligule

  • Involucral bract

  • Stamen and filament formed staminoid structure

  • Zigomorphic flower

Out of 8, we only given 3 species of different family; Cannaceae, Heliconiaceae and Musaceae. 


Cannaceae (Canna indica)


Cannas are distinguished by the presence of mucilage cells and a petal like style fused to a single fertile stamen.  The flower is a bisexual which mean male and female part are in the same flower, often lasting only a day. Have 3 distinct, imbricate sepals and 3 connate, imbricate petals. Have 1 functional stamen. The filament connate with staminodes; adnate to corolla while the anther is unilocular. 3 or 4 petaloid staminodes; 1 larger than the others and recurved, all basally connate and adnate to corolla. 3 carpel are connate and the ovary is inferior with axile placentation. Ovules numerous in each locule. There are nectaries in septa of ovary. The fruit is warty capsule and usually splitting irregularly by disintegration of the fruit wall.

Heliconiaceae (Heliconia psittacorum)


Heliconias are attractive tropical plants with banana-like leaves and beautiful. Long lasting inflorescences composed of showy bracts which contain the true flowers. It may be distinguished from other members of the Zingiberales by their inverted flowers, a sterile staminode and fruits which are drupes. The flowers are bisexual. Its inflorescence do have branch, persistent, colored bracts in the axils of which are fascicles of flowers with petaloid tepals and large herbs with 2-ranked leaves. The fruit has a single hard seed per locule.

Musaceae (Musa acuminata)

Musaceae is a family of banana.  The flowers are zygomorphic and functionally uni sexual or bisexual, the proximal ones being female and the distal ones male. There are 2 tepals; compound tepal and 1 free tepal. The androecium usually consists of 5 fertile stamens and a staminode that is opposite the free tepal. The gynoecium consists of a single compound pistil of 3 carpels, a single style and an inferior ovary with 3 locules, each containing numerous axile ovules. 



Can you see the differences between the male and female?? I didn't zoom in my lens for female. Equally in the same length when I take a photo of them. Female part especially the ovary is bigger than the male. This is because this part eventually become a banana fruit. Here is a picture of female ovary that have been cut it into 2;

Dry and sober evening




My eyes sick of seeing and staring the notes I have printed yesterday. It messes my bed. Luckily its me who done it, so I'm the one to be blame.  Yeah! Yeah! My fault as I prefer to have my study there.  If others do that on my bed, I eventually will burst out. What I really want is!! Just put my notes back where it belong. My head is full of Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA), I can't take it anymore. No spaces left, only explosion may occur. But I haven't finish all the chapters, how and where do I want to put the rest?? Best solution: extremely needed an oxygen for my ICU. Breath out! Breath in! Phew, the notes was completely full in detailed for every chapter and I need to memorize while understand what I had read. Now, I'm taking a half hour break to release my mind, out of EIA world. Wishing me a good luck for my tomorrow EIA Midterm. Hope I can do as good as I done my Chemotaxonomy last week. *finger cross*


The Sound of Music

Remember the 7 children of the Trapp family?






Yes, it had shown on TV. You may think you’re sick of it or not liking it at all but I do love it. Why you don’t like them; nun-in-training Julie Andrews hauling around those Von Trapp’s children and oddly the sexy voice of Christopher Plummer when singing “Edelweiss”. Is that doesn’t melt you? Oh my!! When I look at this picture again, I miss the children especially the youngest one. She was adorable to me.


The Sound of Music is a 1965 American Musical Film which directed by Robert Wise and starring, Julie Andrews and Christopher Plummer. It is based on the Broadway Musical the Sound of Music, with songs written by Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II. What I love about this movie is its ability to bring audiences into another world with such ease. The film’s characters and story are very good with the combination of memorable musical moments of all time. Also, the outstanding music blew me away. Its tuneful songs and collectively produce one of the best soundtracks in musical history. Many of the songs serve the story well. Not forgetting Julie Andrews, she plays the biggest part in making the film itself. She is simply remarkable that she can do no wrong. She creates character that are easy to love and impossible to hate.


Here are the soundtracks:

The Sound of Music

Dixit Dominus (Psalm 110), Morning Hymn and Alleluia

Maria

I have confidence

My favourite things

Salzburg Montage

The Lonely Goatherd

Do Re Mi

Edelweiss

So long, farewell

Climb every mountain

Something good

Processional




“The Sound of Music” is a film which the story is just as enchanting today as it was been before.

On 2010, Oprah’s show make a reunion of “The Sound of Music” cast after 40 years and below are a picture of them;




Here comes more the photo scene of the film;

Officially registered

Guess what? I've my driving license on February 15, 2011(Wednesday). Its been awhile I'm waiting for this moment after I had pass my JPJ test before Chinese New Year. When the license was handed to me, my heart says ; Am I, BernadetteCJ already had a driving license?? I can't believe this!! Is this for real?? OMG! Just want to pinch my hand, poke my legs or slapping my cheeks to convince me that this is a reality. As I grab it and put it in my pinky purse, I gasp. Car? Done! Now my mind set for this semester is only to get good grades. Oh yeah! I'm truly in heaven. I can go anywhere I want at anytime. All I need to do is rented a car. 

And this is what I did last Wednesday;

Without any plan I call up my friend Sharon, asking her out to Kuching's Airport to have a dinner there. Cause that's the only place I think I can go through. "The Spring"??hurmm..LET ME THINK 1st, huu~ I try my best to go there. I wish it! Back to my storyline, Thank God she accept it. Moreover, I'm glad she trust me tho I'm still a beginner. Here goes our journey, we rented a car for 3 hours and the starter was perfect. It was a splendid plan with lots of funny things come around which are (I recall back what had happened that night);

1. My first time go to the Petronas station by myself with Sharon. Actually I'm nervous when it comes to this part as I never done it before. Seriously my mom or dad never asked me to help them  with this. Luckily Sharon had her experience. She done it for me that day. Thanks friend!

2. Having fourth or fifth time I got my car conk. Mostly happens at the traffic light area. Damn! how I hate it. I prefer the roundabout rather than the traffic light.

3. As we arrived at the Airport and you know what?? I just park my car  far away from the ticket box. Oh man!! even my hand can't reach to push the button and I have to walk there. 

4. Half past 8.15 p.m., we went back to Unimas. During our way back, I forgot to switch on my front car's light. I feel so stupid when I think of it on car. How simple that things which I could ever forget. Haiya..hope I won't do this again in future.

5. The funniest thing on earth I done was when I enter the Unimas's security. I don't really know what makes the car goes like a hookey-heekey horse!! The car start to act  weird when I used gear 3 to climb up the bump. I wonder, is it wrong for bumper?? After 3 minutes of hookey-heekey jump, then it conk again for the sixth time. waaaa..both of us get so ashamed that we covered ourselves with laughed.

That was a memorable things which I never forget for my entire life. So many things happen in 3 hours. Its kind of crazy and foolish tragedy but I LOVE IT!

Have fun cause;

Cycle of life?


Everybody want to be loved. Everybody want to be in love. Everybody want to feel the amazing and passionate love. But, do all of us get what we wanted in the end? Some say YES and some say NO..

Some might  have love fully in package and some won't have a piece of it. How wonderful it is if we win the battlefield and how sad it would be to lose. That is the Rhythm of Love, unpredictable. Someone might having himself or herself to be our duet in a sweet love song and sometimes, there's no one would hear our heart sing tho it is made especially for him or her.

Cold morning

Wake up early today at 6 a.m. Wondering myself around the living room, doing nothing. But my anxiousness keep on surround me. No peaceful sleep last night when I heard that my friend's house get rob. I do not know what exactly happen but Thank God they didn't get hurt. This kind of situation hesitate me to rent this house again for the next semester. I feel insecure living in this area.  So, now I have to start bring along my lappy to Unimas. Fuhh..tho my lappy is lighter than the old one before but it make me feel uncomfortable. In spite of that reason,  I can't simply choose and use my handbag freely from now on. It has to be fit enough to put my lappy. And recently my neighbor are mostly guys. This scared me more. Not pointing them as a bad person but  for a protection statement. Sorry, if I judge you guys negatively! Thinking about this make me feel;

STRESS !!!

UUUUU, I feel like it's going to rain. And Hell Yes, it's raining time.

Smiley Porky


Yummy! Yummy! Yummy! I'm so into it, in love with their smile. uuuuuuuuu, SOMEBODY HELP ME!!

What a nice dish I found a minute ago, it make me feel blue. Blue enough to snatch and eat it heavenly. Do I dare to do that kind of stuff, na a a a..I won't touch it for sure. I do blame myself for its cuteness. I rather put it in the fridge for quite sometime until I 'm sick of it. If someone really give me this cuteness-some things ever, I swear I'm going to hug you tight!! Would never let you go.

I miss my Superhero!

♥ is universal

Just want to share a lovely story on this wonderful Valentine's Day. Enjoying myself read this article make me feel the true love.


In less than two days, millions of us will line up at the counters of American commerce as we fork over billions of dollars doing our best to express the culture's always-superficial version of love through the purchase of long-stemmed red roses, chocolates, romantic cards and even diamonds.

Every time February rolls around, I find myself wondering about the motives underlying Valentine's Day.
Do we act out of the fear of hurting someone's feelings, or being viewed as a complete boor, if we don't purchase at least a card? Or do we succumb to the cultural powers summoning us to a mindless conformity because we're afraid to stand out from the crowd?

I learned to dread this day when I was in grade school because it required me to give cards bearing silly messages to everyone in my homeroom class, even girls. When I protested the custom, around the time I was in the third grade, my wise mother convinced me that I could tell my friends I loved them without really meaning anything serious.

Following that bit of reassurance, I remember questioning why we even went through the motion of purchasing so many little Valentines at our local dime store and then scribbling our friends' names upon the envelopes before dropping them in a big red Valentine's box placed conspicuously in the very front of our classroom to remind us not to forget what we were told was a most important day.

My mother's words reassured me until my older brother chimed in with the claim that I would have to wed any girl I professed to love. The thought so terrified me I couldn't sleep the night before Valentine's Day in my eighth year of life. Some children can't sleep on the night before Christmas, but I'm the only one I know who spent hours tossing and turning on Valentine's Eve.

As an old man, I've managed to debunk most of the ridiculous mythology my gifted brother heaped upon me when we were boys, but still I confess to wondering no small amount about how much we human beings know about love.

As best I know, no one has ever cobbled together an even close-to-adequate definition of love. St. John of the New Testament came close when he penned his timeless observation that "God is love." Yet even this seemingly simple, at-first-glance observation is not a definition so much as it is a proclamation of one man's beautiful faith.

All genuine love comes directly from God and therefore does not originate with us, but rather only comes through us as a heaven-sent force for good. Because love originates with God, love then is invariably mysterious and at the same time most powerful.

Love is not a product of the glands but is rather a matter of the heart that insists upon being a genuine expression of its source and is, therefore, what the Apostle Paul said of it — it is invariably patient, notoriously kind and never insistent upon its own way. Love, then, is not a feeling or an emotion but is rather a courageous decision for one to offer to another human being the gift of freedom. For when we truly love someone, that person is always free to stay or go, and free to become exactly who God has created him or her to become.

I wonder how many of us will be pondering the great powers inherent in patience, kindness and freedom as we line up at the store counters next week to purchase flowers and candy all in the name of love. I hope that a great many of us will, because this old troubled world desperately needs people who know well what it means to express love the other 364 days of the year.

If you really ♥ a woman

The Nanny Show!


Having a marathon of The Nanny for hundreds time; WORTH IT. They won't give a damn boring scenes. Keep making me laughed all day long.

Actually, I hated this show earlier because I didn't really watch the whole episodes or even a bit of it. It was my Mummy's favorite show. She like to see the Butler playing his role bullying CC. Also not forgetting Fran(the nanny) and Mr. Sheffield.  And because of that, the whole family except my daddy having it as a daily show.I still remember that the "Lamb Chop On The Menu" part drown me to fall in love with it and I love the show since then. Aww!! how I miss the whole family of "The Nanny". They just simply fit together and making a good show indeed.

Season of LOVE

The day when LOVE start to gloom in its special ways!Valentine's Day is not only for lovers, it also related to our family's love

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah! My love for Valentine is universal, and of course in my love's list would be: Family and Friends (Boyfriend excluded as I have non) ☺



If I'm brave enough to say this:


Tonight will be the greatest day of all. But, I know I'm not that strong to speak out this precious words again for my entire life. Cause I already had it once and making me suffer the most. Right now, I'm calculating my days of recovering and I realize that it takes 1 year for me to forget everything and stay normal again!


It's cool to be back to the old BernadetteCJ again. ☺

Being in LOVE is complicated because; 


From all of the three, I really really afraid of this one. I wish whoever I love in future will LOVE ME with all HIS HEART tho we are far apart or whatever may distract our relationship.


I'm willing to open up my heart again for 2011. Forget the past and accept the new one. I hope my future BOYFRIEND will last to be my HUSBAND! I really wish for it. ☺

And if I have a boyfriend, there are things that I want to do with him; 

 Hang out with beautiful memories together

P/S: I would be slightly touch if my lover always surprise me with flowers. It's kind of romantic to me.


To my future Boyfriend or Husband out there, no matter who you are and where you come from;
