Crackk.....crrackk......

Yesterday was a horrible day...actually this week everything is going wrong. Don't say that I'm whining. It's true. Starting of this week, I supposed.. on tuesday, when I woke up in the morning and went to take a bath....as usually my hand will automatically fly (like what a child do when playing aeroplane using hand) and hit (actually just swicth on) the electric switch , bumping the bathroom door and....then... what else to do? Take a bath! But on that day I realised that something unsual with the shower...its water is just like a drizzling rain. " Owh, may be the shower's switch was not switched on properly. But then, when I checked it..it was already on. "Argh...what's wrong with you (the switch)?" spontaneously that words flew out from my mouth. I'm perceived that its light not lighted. Actually, I realised it before...I meant light. So,when no current, no power is supplied to the water heater...and no warm water, it still okay....the atrocious thing is no water could be pumped means no pressure to pump the water from the shower. Luckily, because of the incident our monthly bill for electricity will be more cheaper.
Cheaper? How can a bill become cheaper just because not using the water heater? Yes, that is somehow true, but let me continue how will our electric bill become cheaper and cheaper and cheaper not like usual. After I was taking bath, then another bad news getting crash in my ear drum. "Sabri, electric switch in our room can't be used!"
Ah...just now our water heater was damaged and this time another thing spoilt. Don't worry let us check the main switch first. A few seconds later the switch funtioned again as normal, but when I turned on the water heater.....suddenly a light blazed and a small explosion occured.
"No wonder...the main problem is the water heater".
To shorten my story, this week become worse and worse. A day after, I got a problem with washing machine. It was facing a same fate as the water heater but it was more lucky because it still can be used to wash but not for rinse or dry. As a matter of fact, early of this month...our cooker was damaged. However, we have a kind and generous housemate, HAZMAN! Thank you for bought a new induction cooker though it cost you RM2500. Everyone said, that is how we should applied the physics' knowledge about "Induction" in daily life. And Hazman has done it.
One more atrocious event occured in this week. It related to my blog title above. Why "Crackk.....crrackk......" ? Because yesterday my fathers car had faced a terrible experienced in its life when its window at the back side was broken. It looks like been shot by a mafia. Actually my father wasn't got robbed but a small and tiny tone is the that should be blamed. My neighbour was cutting the grass in the frontyard of her house. Unfortunately, a small stone caused my father's car broke. To replace for the new one, it cost my father RM100.
I think this month not an "APRIL FOOL" but "APRIL FOOLS". I think that's enough for this session. I hope next month, "May Fool" wouldn't happen. Have nice day!

The Truth of Voluntary Unemployment.....



This week, an unexpected news has caused a big shocked to everyone in my class. It’s not because Ronaldinho came to our class to offer Rahimi to join AC Milan football team or because of surprised made by Franky when he shouted “Die laa !!” and suddenly his spell cause someone die. But it was a really shocking news when Miss Jess, our economics lecturer told us that we’ll get a new lecturer who’ll replace her because she will leave her job as a lecturer for another job in a banking sector. I perceived that this is an example of voluntary unemployment (a term used by economist to classify unemployment), which occurs when a worker decides to change his or her job to search for another position. This is how economics knowledge can be applied in daily life.

Haaaaaah....last week was a stressful period which enforced me to go through it. I thought by having a day off on Monday would help me to rest my “boiling” brain. Unfortunately, the depression feelings continued accompanying me this week. And this is another challenge... get ready to have a tutorial with a new lecturer. As a matter of fact, it’s is not a big problem to have a new lecturer but this will take a time to adapt and feel comfort with a new learning environment. “Don’t bothered by all those things...I can do it!”. Yeah..I hope so. May be there is something good is hidden.


My grandma said, “Whatever you are facing in life regardless it’s good or bad, handle it with full of exuberance and rational because those are your experience and experiences are the best teacher for you to learn!”. Yes, I guess she is true. Just take it as experience.
