Acidic Saliva
Few days ago, I suddenly recalled a scene from the movie "Jurassic Park". The scene is that the saliva from the T-Rex dinosaur seems sizzling when it drops to the ground. It's probably showing that the saliva is either corrosive or hot. And, I assume it to be acidic. I wonder is it because the T-Rex is a carnivore and makes prey of other huge dinosaurs only, and so it should have highly acidic saliva for enzymes like protease to digest proteins. Maybe it is just that the movie wants to highlight the T-Rex "superiority". Or is it just a figment of my imagination and there is no this particular scene in Jurassic Park?

Am I?
I always think that I'm a kind friend and always considerate and care for people's feelings. But recently, I realised that I'm actually not that kind of person. Is it that in the old times when I made fun of my friends and my friends said nothing? Or it depends on people to determine whether what I'm doing is over the limit?
I had a friend who is very nervous and he wants confirmation for everything, twice or thrice. Sometimes, when I'm focusing on something, he kept asking me things. Recently, I actually showed my frustrated expression to him. And, he kept saying sorry for that. And not long after that, he told me that he is going to leave my school as he is not suitable for engineering. I kind of feeling guilty for that. Is it because of my reluctancy to help him that causes him to think like that?
And I dunno whether I'm feeling guilty now or feeling scared that actually all people had that impression towards me. Am I a considerate person? Am I? I kept self-reflecting and suddenly I found I had a lot to do to improve my attitude towards friends and other people.

First Blog Here
(-o-) , so sleepy...
I slept late almost every night recently. My definition for late is 1 to3 am. Don't get scared. It's not because of assignments or revisions. I just went to my friends' room to waste time. I found myself lazy and I just can't get back into school life for the moment.
Anyway, I've learnt some new things or I should say starting learning. For now, I'm learning swimming (free style) and I'd paid RM50 to get a new Speedo goggle from Tesco. Actually, I'd just learnt once, planning for the second. I've never touch anything related to music before and now I'm learning flute in Chinese Orchestra. Amazed with people solving the rubik cube, I bought a cheap one too, still struggling.
One thing that I feel relieved here is that I can watch FOOTBALL here. Haha. We had a common room with a FEW Astro channels. Each person has to pay RM5 per semester for that, COMPULSORY. However, I usually watch football match in the V6 cafe in UTP.
My friends in Alor Star kept attracting me to go back. There're messages like these that I receive:
"I cannot sleep lo tonight because I want to go Genting tomorrow already ..."
"There'll be a gathering in CSC's house ... but sorry, I forget you are in UTP."
"I'm in CSC's home now. Very happy with others ..."
Specially for the one who "terasa": Don't force me to run back! I'll jump over the fence, get away from the security, climb over the mountains, cross the rivers, pass the jungle and run all the way back to ..... you.
