BBC – Daisy Morris from the Isle of Wight stumbled upon the remains on Atherfield beach four years ago. A scientific paper stated the newly discovered species of pterosaur would be called Vectidraco daisymorrisae. Fossil expert Martin Simpson said this was an example of how “major discoveries can be made by amateurs”. Daisy’s mum Sian Morris said her daughter had started fossil hunting aged three and came across the blackened “bones sticking out of the sand” in 2009, when she was four years old

An extinct dinosaur named after a daughter!! If this was Widad, I would grant a small castle for my little girl, complete with fossil-digging gadgets. Since my daughter’s talent was being recognized, I made it clear to rail my daughter’s career at early age — a path to become paleontologist  But as far as I’m concern, in this country, there’s no fossil to be found. In fact, I have sense that my daughter has no interest in collecting fossil. She has no interest in collecting anything.

If she ought to collect something, she wants it for one reason — just like other toys that I have bought for her: to bend and break.

this video is a MAJOR EYE OPENER. after this year its going to get harder and harder for the miseducated, misguided and the weak minded. With a flood of people coming in seeking refuge from unemployment and the dwindling economy, the scams are going to increase and the con artist are going to have more unsuspecting people to take advantage of. I’m not worried though, I have a plan

This week question on Quora is:

Is Amy Chua right when she explains “Why Chinese Mothers Are Superior” in an op/ed in the Wall Street Journal?

Chinese mothers are superior. I respect them for what they sacrifice for their children. Their method, unfortunately, makes other people, especially in Western cultures, feel uncomfortable, offended. Strict parenting such as spanking is one is the best method in Asian cultures. I grew up in strict parenting, and I appreciate my mom for that. I become a better man.

I don’t know if you guys notice but, I have observed a mother of three children who was so strict and fierce, the kids were so behaved, they did show manners to people around them. However, I notice answer regarding suicide statistics among Asian teens

I see Asian teens in my clinic; many are academically quite successful, but are also the ones I worry most about re: suicide. The depression red flags are different for many Asian teens, who may be getting good grades, are still engaged in extra-curricular activities, while profoundly struggling with self-identity, self-esteem, and rigidity in thought about potential outcomes (“either I have to be a Harvard lawyer, or I’ll be so ashamed that the only outlook is death”). Also very problematic is the stigma against outsiders (non-family) giving help – many parents do not want their children to see a professional, wanting to keep all issues within the family.

Suzan Song, global child/adolescent psychiatrist

My mom had stopped being so fearsome when I went to secondary school. From the day 1 of being Form 1 boy at boarding school, my mom had been approaching me by giving thoughtful advice. Strict parenting suppose to stop when our children decide things on their own. Feel pressure if they’re being treated as a small child.

Even with spanking, swinging rotan, and spanking, my affection for my mother is inflating as I get older:

In recent years, when I compare notes with my Chinese American friends and peers, one thing I consistently hear was the lack of love from their parents, or that the love was conditional on success. I never had that. My parents loved me no matter what and they made that clear, not just in words, but in actions. Despite every time I got scolded (man, the English word for scold, which is the correct translation, does not begin to really capture the hurricane of verbal abuse a Chinese woman is capable of), it would hurt and build resentment, but I could never look back and not see it coming from love and hopeful expectation for my future. Everything that they did, every sacrifice that they made, was to give me a better future than the past that they came from.

Bottom Line. 

Every parenting method has its pros and cons. All that I think of is to weight our decisions upon nurturing our children in the most awesome way, or we can mix and cook all of the method in a lab and produce the hybrid one.

You will not believe this. I’m good at cooking.

Day One
After reading, rereading, reading again and again (how to cook for first timer), I’ve nailed it. I actually can cook.

I was jumping two feet off the ground I forgot to take a photos of it.

Except the chicken was overcook. And my served food was over-season with Thyme. Leaving, excruciatingly herb taste on my kids’ lips, my wife’s lips, and my own lips. And garbage-eating cat’s lips.

Day Two
Hahah.. Malaysian food. This is easy. Too easy for me. Ayam Masak Kicap is too much easy for me.

But at the last step, I retarded myself, losing my cooking skills, and tossing Kicap Masin, instead of Kicap Manis.

“Oh no, why I mistook the salty soy sauce over the sweet one?”

And my goooddddd!!! The the taste is skyfalling awesome of salty chicken, you could lost one leg in three heartbeats.

But I ate it anyway. It was horrible. I have to. I was responsible to finish it.

Like everyone else, I was living in denial by saying my cook is good. I was like a 2nd choice footballer in Harimau Malaya team, burning the reserve seat for too long and waiting for the primary chef to have an eyebag of tiredness and then have lazy days.

Just like a second rate player, I excited to show the world what kind of super chief I can be.

To tell you the truth. Im deeply know the concept of cooking. The food is raw. You cook. You eat. I thought by knowing thé concept, you know the cooking. Well, I guess I’m wrong.

Yes honey, Your secret is safe with me. I won’t tell anyone about your overcooked pizza was As hard as gold plated flying saucer you can smack Aaron Aziz off the ground.

Are you really can cook like Jamie Oliver?
I’m good in cooking!!!. I only lost it to my wife. Yes, granted that she is the leading chef in our house. At least im not in last place. My son and daughter both took the third and the last place. Hahah..

Recently i hardly update this blog. The time that i have is very limited. Juggling between works at office and at home is very challenging nowadays. Outstations and stayback, house chaos and homeschooling causing Supermom lay down flat on the comfortable bed by 9pm. Krohhh.krohhhh.krohh

Thanks to Allah for having Mr Hubby who always understand me and never complaint about tired or i hate doing this. Being a parent has a wide job scope as he claims. Dont’t be selfish and demand for perfect wife who capable to do everything. They are not machine. They also need rest and relax. Syukur Alhamdulillah.

For the kids, Mr Hubby always tell me: Don’t worry too much when your time spending with them is very limited. Soonner or later they will understand yang dadi and mami keluar mencari rezeki untuk sesuap nasi

Nothing else that i want beside understanding Mr Hubby and happy kids when time is very constraint and precious.

But, the one that i really need now is :

How to become highly super patient mom.
