Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Wish you all the best on Christmas and the prospectus New Year! Thank for dropping by my blog. Have a nice holiday...

SuperHand!

Can anyone do like her? What a super-hand! I cannot believe my own eye... It was so cool!

Meaning of My Name " Dara"!

Hey guys! Guess what? Actually, my name is not only meant something in "Khmer", but also international meaning.

It was about two weeks ago that I came across the meaning of my name on Wikipedia.com. It is so amazing to find my name on Wikipedia... Lolz!

Well, let's me tell you what it means. As we all know, in Khmer Dara mean star up in the dark sky during the silent night with the moon to shine the earth... In the Bible's Old Testament Books of Chronicles, "Dara" means "Pearl of wisdom" or "Wisdom and compassion" in Hebrew name. It also means "to live" as a verb in Modern Hebrew language. Well, in Aramaic, which I have no idea what it is, it means "Pearl", "Father-of-pearl", or "Marble".

Dara also means "Leader" in Turkish and Punjabi, "Wealthy" in Persian, and "Beautiful one" in Kiswahili. it also interpret as "Girl" in Indonesian language, "Virgin" in Malay, as my friends told me, and "Oak Tree" in Irish, but it's still meaningful.

Wow, it is so cool, right? As normally, the names may have a good meaning in their own language, but can mean nothing or even worst in other language. However, I am so glad to know that my name is so meaningful and fascinating. Thank to my parents for naming me "Dara".

P.S. Hey if you don't believe me you can check on Wikipedia or click here.

Going to Cinema!

December 18, 2007

Well after the long weeks of trying to complete my assignments, me and my friend decided to release our tension by going to watch a movie in the cinema in Lancaster Square. Actually, it supposed to be "friends" as two of them are so lazy and haven't complete their assignments on time. So, it only two of us went out.

We decided to watch the new movie called, "Golden Compass". The ticket was so expensive, £12.50 per person. First, we were a bit hesitated, but as we had decided we went for the movie; so we bought two tickets. Wow, it was the hugest expense I ever spent on movie, but people said "Don't regret on what you have done, if it is not illegal; otherwise, you will not complete anything."

The movie is so great, both the story and the graphic and sound technology. It is completely different from the cinema in our country as the sound is not so high-tech. Here if the camera is focus on one person and the other is talking or making sound at the back or far away, you can hear it from the seat as if you are inside the movie. You know what I mean right? However, there is one thing I hate about that movie, "Golden Compass". It got no ending, cos I think the director want to continue the story, "Golden Compass 2". Lolz!

Well but it's a great movie. You guys should watch it, buy cheap DVD in our country tov, it's better...

Unexpected Result!

Well guess what guys... It's vacation...

On the Christmas party last night, it is also the day that the lecture gave out the certificate for student who participated in the academic project. However, it's so sad, cos on that same day i had business stat. exam. Everyone celebrate and me sitting for the exam...

Oh on after refreshment, my lecturer gave a short speech and announce the outstanding group in the project. Don't ask me what he said, cos I was doing exam upstair can't hear anything. Then when he announce that the first outstanding group is "Six degree", my group name, everyone clapped but non of my group member were there so stupid... and then they all when sileint, so my lecturer go on, to announce the second outstanding group which is my flatmate group, "Juicy Bread". There is only two group got outstanding. So cool right?

Then after I finish exam, I just went down to the party to grab something to eat. My friends come to congratulate me, and I didn't know what they talking about...

Here is my certificate...


By the way Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Everyone!

What the Magic Word(s)?

During the session in Micro-economics, my lecturer has mention about the exported products of UK. Products here can be both goods and service. He said that the top exported product is Financial Service. The second one is, he forgot. For the top third exported product is ***. Therefore, the UK government is so strict on this part.

Next year, the law that related to this product will be strengthened double or even triple, in my idea. That is also the reason why I have to wait for nearly 2 hours at the immigration control in Heathrow Airport.

*** What the magic word?

Clues:

1. It begins with a vowel.

2. It is what we all want to have...

3. It is very important for us...

The deadline of this quiz is New Year... Good Luck!

Different in marking system!

One day during my lecture, long time ago, my lecturer told us about the different in marking system in UK.

In Cambodia, the score is deducted when we make mistake, right? However, here the mark is putting up and also deducted. If there is ten point to mention in the essay, you have to mention all of it and make it accurately. One idea mean one mark. Mark also deducts when you make vocabulary or grammatical mistake.

In UK, it is so rare for students to get above 70%! Why? Cos, 70+ is A already. It is equivalent to 85 in USA system...

On the other hand, it is so funny to here him said that, if you got less than 80 in German, you failed. Is it true? I don know.

Oh you can go to this website to see the comparison...

Interesting, right?

Earning money from what you write!

Another new business to introduce! I have just sign up with Payperpost, which is a blog reviews website that you can earn money from just posting what you like on your blog. It is easy and simple.

As we all like to write a blog, why don’t earn some money from it?

First after you sign up with Payperpost, you have to submit your blog for approval. It take around 3 days to know whether your blog is accept or reject. When your blog have been accept, you can now take opportunities which will label the price you can earn when you post that opportunity on your blog.

You guys might wonder, how they are going to pay us, right? The payment is made through Paypal, the secure website used to buy and send money on the net. The money will be sent one month after you have post the opportunity, because they have to see that you still keep the post after you received the money. Oh! The best thing is you don’t have to enter your bank account, which is very risky on the net. You guys know what I mean? “Scam”.

This Payperpost is not a scam, it is a real business on the net. I have made some money already from this payperpost. Isn’t it cool? So why don try it!

Bad Day!

Today, I suppose to have the presentation for the final project. There are lecturers and external examiner coming also to listen to our presentation and to see our work. I've been working so hard for this project, and today i mess everything up!

I have produced a marketing plan for my project, which have been told by my lecture the best marketing plan of the semester, but... So hard to say! I'm feeling so sad now...

Ok, today I though that the presentation started at 14:30, as written on the noticeboard, but time change on the day of presentation. It started at 12:30 and I arrive at 14. How stupid, I am! They said it's ok, cos the lectures just want to know how much efford you put in this project. It's fine. However, I still feel quilty!

It made me feel worst when my marketing lecturer come back to give us comment. He talked directly to me. He said he want me to present what i had done. He have back me up with external examiner that my marketing plan is the best marketing plan ever produced by the first year first semester students. He said at my level, it is even better than the other second and third year students.

He said he is so disappionted in me that i didn't show up. He wanted me to show off my work to the external examiners, but why? Why i didn't show up? After hearing those words, I feel like all the light in the world has been suck away. I feel so bad. How this stupid thing happen to me? Why?

I wish I can turn back time! And Start All This Thing Again!

You make me smile!

I just realised this a week ago, when I was doing the research in my University. It was around 3pm, sitting in front of my laptop. I was so stressful for all that research, reading, and typing. I decided I want to have some rest.

I first check my email. Then I saw some comment on my blog. So i visit my blog to reply all the comment. Suddenly, I realise that I was smiling without knowing it. Everytime I read all of you guys comments on my blog and on your blog, I feel so relax and happy. I smile with very sentences of the comment no matter how "Bad" it is! It's always mean somethings to me...

Thank you for visiting my blog...

They found out...

Man! I don't know whether they found it out or not? Or mayb they just move to other place or stop using it. All I can do now is guessing, that all.

Oh! I'm talking about the internet connection. I cannot find that network on wireless network list anymore. I think they stop using it, because the bill mayb too high (cos we help them use it!). Now I cannot use internet at home anymore. This has happened for one week already. So far, I have to go to the library to do all my stuff. This is the reason why there is no new post recently on my blog or my comments on you guys blog!

I hope that there is someone leaving their network unsecured again so that I can use, Lol...

P.S. Yeah you right Sovan so I better delete the blog that I commit a crime soon...

The Magic word is...

Finally, we have our winner...

 

Kanitha (dpk)

 

The answer of the first quiz, "What the Magic Word(s)?", is

It was amazing that they weight the money. The machine is designed to identified the amount of money by its weight. So the cashier has to categorise the money according to there value, like £5, £10, £20, and so on.

As Christmas is coming, your prize will a Christmas present. Therefore, you will receive it until Christmas. So, you have to wait na... I can't tell you what it is cos it's a "Christmas Gift".
