			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Note:</strong> I&#8217;m writing @ typing this blog post from a side of a bed in Johor Specialist Hospital, Johor Bahru.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">As the title shows, that is what happen to my son. 3 weeks ago, Ikhwan played inserting small papers inside his left and right ears at school.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Last Friday, we went to the clinic as he complained about something stuck inside his left ear. It was found that some sort of wax has emerged inside his ears, possibly an infection due to his act of inserting paper inside his ear. The doctor vacuumed the left ear and the wax was successfully removed but with some struggle as Ikhwan cannot sit still at all. After the left ear is clear, the doctor checked the right ear which Ikhwan does not feel anything. Just pure checking&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The doctor found a tiny piece of paper inside his right ear.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">To cut things short, today we met the doctor again to see the outcome &#8211; to check whether the paper is still there or dissolve. Well, guess what&#8230;. the paper is still there and not only the doctor, but me and my wife can see the paper using the tool (i don&#8217;t know what it is called) to look into the ear thing.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">He asked us to immediately go to the Johor Specialist hospital and meet up with the E&amp;T (ear and throat) Specialist, Dr. Ridzo. He said that Ikhwan need to be taken to the operation theater in order to remove that tiny piece of paper. Wow&#8230;. that bad&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Ikhwan was shaken to learn the news. He started crying, fearing the experience he will be facing soon.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Before we continued to register Ikhwan&#8217;s admission into the ward, we checked with our insurance agent about the payment procedure. This is very imperative as we have paid insurance consistently each and every month for the pass 5 years. We will be devastated if the insurance would not cover the cost of this minor treatment in the specialist hospital.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">To cut long story short&#8230; Ikhwan was admitted to the day care ward and to standby to be called into the operation theater.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">To be continued&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_QgQkmyCHz1Q/TElzpfQ5ieI/AAAAAAAABxw/SCHvH8Q65m0/s1600/DSC00519.JPG" alt="" width="449" height="336" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I would like to share this wonderful glorious moment. My wife just passed her Ph.D VIVA yesterday after 4 years of battle in her Chemical Engineering degree. The journey finally come to an end and she earned the title Dr. in front of her name. However she needs to complete some minor correction before sending it to one of the internal examiners for final checking of the corrections.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">You can read the moments one day before the VIVA <a href="http://chem-eng.blogspot.com/2010/07/good-luck-for-your-chemical-engineering.html">here</a> and the moment just after the VIVA session <a href="http://chem-eng.blogspot.com/2010/07/progressive-freeze-concentration.html">here</a>.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Now it is my turn to speed up and complete my Ph.D study (also in Chemical Engineering).</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Oh yes&#8230; in case you wonder, my research and hers&#8217; is totally opposite. I&#8217;m more involved in high temperature catalytic reactions while my wife is inclined to crystallization separation in extreme low temperatures. I just entered my 3rd semester and I am given time until June 2012 to complete my Ph.D. I hope I have the power, will and strength to complete my study excellently.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">How about you?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1643" title="goal-setting" src="http://cyza.us/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/goal-setting.jpg" alt="goal-setting" width="450" height="337" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">It is not easy to be successful and rich. Everybody will surely agree with me on that. Don&#8217;t you think so? You need a reason and the reason need to be really worthy. You will definitely to fight your ass out to reach your precious goal in life. Being successful is not an individual matter. It&#8217;s about teamwork. I would like to share some of the strategy I&#8217;m implementing in reaching my ambitious goals (I have not reached my goal yet)</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>1. Identify and write down your goals.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This is very, I repeat very important. You need to clearly define your goals because this is what you will be aiming for in what ever space time you set. I have my own goals that I&#8217;m targeting. So far, my materialistic goal is to accumulate &#8230;&#8230;&#8230; by the age of 40 years old. See&#8230; I have clearly define what I want (which I&#8217;m not going to reveal here) and set specific time when to achieve it. I also have another 2 career related goals which are to get my doctorate and be a professional engineer in 2012. Those are another clear and distinctive goals. You should have one (or several) and try to laser focus on it (them).</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>2. Prepare a realistic plan of action</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">To achieve your goal, no matter how high it is, you need to have a master plan on how to achieve your goals. The plan of action need to be reasonable and realistic. The plan will be one step at a time and progressively reaching your goals. For example, My target is to accumulate &#8230;&#8230;. by the age of 40 years old. It&#8217;s like impossible for me to accumulate &#8230;&#8230;.. with only my salary!!! I must be frank with you that I cannot at all save any penny from my monthly salary. To make the story sad, my wife&#8217;s salary also could not be spared as well. Both our combine salary is only sufficient to help us live that month. So, in order to reach our financial goal, both of us have to do extra job. My wife has her consultation projects to take care off and the pay, although not consistently getting project, it is good enough to help us save some money. In the other hand, I&#8217;m developing and establishing my online business. I have set the amount of money I need to generate for certain months and years. I have noted the online expenses I have to cover hosting, auto-responder, domains, paying <a href="http://cyza.us/2010/07/i-hired-a-virtual-assistant/">virtual assistant</a> salary, outsourcing some jobs and others. Those are related to our financial goals.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">For my postgraduate study, I planned my writing, experiments and others accordingly. It is tough of course to do a Ph.D but my supervisor SMSed me yesterday and told me to see the final end result, which is to have the title &#8220;Dr. &#8220;in  front  of my name.</p>
<p><a href="http://eca.sh/FYic "><img border="0" src="http://www.imjvgifts.com/marketing/2a7bbanner468x60.png"></a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>3. Associate with those who have the same interest</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Do you remember, when you are in school. When the exam approaches, you will create a study group. Why? To discuss about the subjects you are going to face for the examination. Sometimes you don&#8217;t understand certain formulas and your friend will help and explain it to you. The same goes to reaching your goal. You might not have the same target, but your colleagues who happens to be in the same interest (same niche) will be there for you. This is the guys that you share your interest passionately with. Do you have those friends?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I&#8217;m glad that I have known and be friends with those who are in the same circle. I can discuss about blogging strategies, activities happening in the internet marketing world locally and internationally, making money online and much more. Once in a while, like tonight, I&#8217;ll be catching up with some of my online friends, not empty chatting but getting up to date with the latest internet and cyberspace buzz. We share the same interest and we are very passionate of it. We share information and help to build each others&#8217; success.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">When it comes to my study and research, I&#8217;m fortunate that I am in a research group. There are other Ph.D, masters and undergraduate student performing their own research. We discuss research related information. No need for me to cover those nasty technical terminology here.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">There are actually other approach on this. You can also associate with those having same interest in blogs, forums and social sites. If you have an interest of playing remote control drift car, you will surely visit remote control drift car blogs, forums and be a member of a related group in social sites.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>4. Get yourself a mentor</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I <a href="http://cyza.us/2010/07/how-many-mentors-do-you-have/">covered about this recently</a>. This is as equally as important as point number 1, 2 and 3 above. To speed up a reaction (process) to see the end result, you need a mentor to guide and help you. This is important to speed up your destiny to success. A mentor will guide you and based on his or her experiences. They will show which path for you to take, what you should do, what you should not do, what you should focus on etc. Without a mentor, you can still reach your goal but maybe it will take longer duration of time. I consider a mentor like a catalyst &#8211; something that can speed up a process. Why choose to struggle 13 years if you can make it in 4 years with the help of a mentor? Get my point?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">There are mentors who want something in return such as certain amount of fees or profit sharing. There are mentors who want their names as co-writer in a book or paper that we publish. There are also certain mentors who sincerely wants to help us without any charge. Either way won&#8217;t matter. If it is important, just get a mentor and make sure you get a good one, those who have the real experience and success. Do not get an adviser. An adviser will only advice and do not know about what you doing. They may know theoretically but practically they are not at all fit to be called a mentor. So, be careful.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I&#8217;m glad that I have all 4 points covered now for my goals. Different goals, different target, different strategies, different type of colleagues and of course different mentors. What about you?</p>

With all the <a href="http://cyza.us/2010/07/be-strong-be-blod/">loads</a> I&#8217;m carrying now, I cannot do my online job comfortably.  I&#8217;m hectic and tight up with <a href="http://cyza.us/2010/06/multitasking-while-running-experiment-1/">my studies </a>and other official jobs. That&#8217;s when I started outsourcing. I have been outsourcing some of my online stuffs like writing articles, making backlinks, article and web directory submission, forum posting and others. Those were all on job/project basis. I pay those freelancers after they completed their work. I must say there are works that I&#8217;m satisfied and there are also those which after I checked, I&#8217;m pissed off. Most that I&#8217;m not satisfied were the web directory submissions. I&#8217;m expecting to improve my backlinks, but unfortunately it&#8217;s like paying somebody for nothing.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Well, that&#8217;s the end of web directory submission. I&#8217;m going to change my tactics.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">On Saturday, I decided to get myself a virtual assistant (VA). The VA will assist me on most of my online marketing job. Those marketing jobs include writing articles, re-writing articles, submitting articles to article directories, creating videos, submitting videos, comment marketing and so on. The list does not stop there.</p>
<p><a href="http://eCa.sh/6Pus "><img border="0" src="http://www.imjvgifts.com/marketing/2a7bbanner468x60.png"></a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Sunday night (entering Monday morning), I got myself my new VA. He will work for me and do what ever I asked him to do, to help me with my <a href="http://cyza.us/2010/06/passive-blogging/">blogging business</a>. I&#8217;m really glad to have him on board helping me with my online jobs. He has done some work for me earlier and I can see that he works hard, willing to learn, listen to me, can work independently with minor supervision, responsible and honest. In return, I&#8217;ll pay him monthly salary via paypal. He will work for me part time, 4 hours a day.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Having somebody working for/with me like that is one of the most crucial online decision I&#8217;ve ever made. I&#8217;m basically leveraging some of my online work that I am not capable of taking care off due to my other loads. I&#8217;m aware that I don&#8217;t have that much capital, but I badly need a VA to help me. Having a VA will help me speed up my marketing and catalyzed my back-linking process.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I&#8217;m glad to finally employ a VA. I&#8217;m not sure what you guys are thinking now&#8230; but I would love to know your reaction and comment&#8230; <img src='http://cyza.us/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">There will be times that we have a lot of work, stress out, cooked under pressure, rushing to complete certain tasks and others. When that time comes, we need to really focus to complete and deliver our work. But sometimes, when you are doing more than one things (excluding hobby and my online blogging), all those tasks came at the exact same deadline and you need to execute all of them together. That&#8217;s when we need to list all the jobs and do it one after another. It&#8217;s like a checklist of jobs.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Sometimes, it is unavoidable. We started bringing that work home and hope that our family will understand and support us. Our boss keep on asking when we are going to give this and that. The pressure is mounting and you health slowly deteriorated.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I&#8217;m presently in that situation. I&#8217;m quite tense right now. I haven&#8217;t updated this blog and other of my blogs for quite a few days. This was mainly due to my job constrain, particularly my study. I have to write a book chapter about Hydrogen production from biomass. The subject is quite heavy and I need to read more about various hydrogen producing technology which are currently available. Among the technology of producing hydrogen are steam reforming, partial oxidation of methane, dry reforming, autothermal reforming and pyrolysis. There are other methods as well but we are focusing on biomass source which is deemed as renewable energy. Don&#8217;t understand anything? Don&#8217;t worry. It&#8217;s really none of your business. Just focus on your work and perform.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">After the book chapter, I have another technical paper correction to make which is planned to be submitted to a reputable international journal. Yet, another technical writing which requires a lot of technical resources. The third one in the line waiting for me is my own engineering project paper which I need to present to my mentor. I&#8217;ve promised him to submit end June but it is now all delayed. I&#8217;ve got to complete the first two tasks before completing my project paper. Those 3 are the one currently bugging me the most. After that, there are still more but, I&#8217;ll take it one at a time. Relax&#8230; control the game&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Since I&#8217;m a little bit tense, I decided to write something in Cyza Sector on this peaceful Thursday morning, to ease some of my mental stress. Oh yes, everything is accumulated in my head. I just need to spill it out before i head to work. Blogging makes me relax a bit. My tasks won&#8217;t be over till I&#8217;m guessing next week. So, I still need to do some official job during my weekends.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I chatted with my wife and my head of department. Both of them told me I need to slow down and relax a bit. Don&#8217;t pressure my self&#8230; Take care of your health. I really appreciate those advice and I&#8217;m trying to low down the pace and rate of my work.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1609" title="MentorPic" src="http://cyza.us/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/MentorPic.jpg" alt="MentorPic" width="448" height="336" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We are a human being that started from knowing nothing. We grow older and progressively learn many things along the years. When we are small, our main duty is to study, study and study. Nothing else. Yep, nothing else matter&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">But then as we approach adulthood, we began exploring various other areas. We explore new interest, new hobbies, new this and new that. For certain things that we want to establish our expertise, we need somebody to guide, monitor and assist us. Those people, regardless of their field of expertise I regard as my precious mentor. They are like a catalyst, something and somebody that can speed the process of us getting to what we aim for. They will show us which path to take and which to avoid.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>My mentors</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">As some of you know, I&#8217;m currently pursuing my Ph.D study in chemical engineering and I have a supervisor  (professor) to guide and maneuver me doing research work, writing technical papers and other research related issues. I also have a co-supervisor in Finland which I refer to once in a while.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">At the same time, I am also in my quest to be a professional engineer and I have a mentor who is an experienced professional engineer to guide and help me be one. He works in KL (I work in JB) but that does not matter because I  will always meet him every quarterly to let him assess my performance and give advice. Currently he is in Uzbekistan, managing some civil project there. I will meet him when he is back here.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">When I was working as a process engineer few years back, I have my senior executives as my mentor. They will share their experiences, knowledge and skills with me. Oh, I miss those days in the plant.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Besides my professional career mentioned above, I&#8217;m deeply and madly in love with the internet. I&#8217;m not really a fan of those social sites like <a href="http://cyza.us/2010/07/my-social-media-site-memberships/">Facebook, Twitter and Linkedin</a>. I&#8217;m only using them to market my brand and communicate with my networks. I&#8217;m more towards blogging (part time blogger) and now slowly learning to try my luck selling some digital product online @ Internet Marketer (IM).</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">For those 2 co-curricular activities, I also have my own mentor to guide and help when I am in need of their advice. Those are people who have more knowledge and more skills than me. I have few person which I consider mentors when it comes to blogging. We are colleagues but at certain times, they are my blogging mentors.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">At the same time, I have another <a href="http://cyza.us/2009/12/gempak-newbie-launching-today/">IM mentor</a> who is very kind enough to spend his precious time teaching and guiding me when I&#8217;m in need of him. His vast knowledge, experience and success in internet marketing inspires me to be a great IM. I&#8217;m making myself to be one. Oh God&#8230;please make my journey smooth&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">When it comes to gold investment, I have 2 mentors, both who are my <a href="http://cyza.us/2010/06/its-not-too-late-for-you-and-me/">younger brothers</a>. They have more comprehension and knowledge in gold related matters. They also have invested massively in gold.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">When it comes to financial management and investments, I also have a mentor too. We never went through financial subjects or financial management in school nor university. The most we had is accounting and economics. Hence, it is important to have a <a href="http://cyza.us/2010/07/financially-independent-strong-healthy-fish-harvest-the-mind/">financial mentor</a> to help and guide us.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Am I a mentor to others?</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Hmmm&#8230; I don&#8217;t really know how to answer that. There is no official mentorship going on accept for me mentoring my undergraduate student to do research closely related to mine.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I know some people, including my youngest brother, who maybe consider me as their mentor in blogging and internet marketing. Honestly, I don&#8217;t consider myself any sort of expert in blogging and Search Engine Optimization (SEO), but when somebody asks about it, I will definitely share. It&#8217;s my passion and I love discussing about it. In fact I don&#8217;t mind teaching and guiding those who are serious about blogging and SEO with zero charge. No problem at all.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I hope and wish that I&#8217;ll be a good mentor to my kids. I want to be a good father and example to them. That&#8217;s very important. Every body wants their kids to grow and be good and kind people, responsible and honourable, having good career and so on. We (me and my wife) also wanted that and we need to provide the best education and training for them. No matter how it cost, we will get the money to spend.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>You are ei</strong><strong>ther a mentee or a mentor</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Yes you are. If you are not either a mentee nor a mentor, I&#8217;m not sure where do you live and what you are.You might not be chasing for something.You might not have any interest in anything. You might not have a career you want to take care off. Maybe you are have not discovered your passion. Maybe you are not yet establish in what you are doing now.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">It&#8217;s really something you need to think off.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Yep, think about it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1604" title="Financial-planning" src="http://cyza.us/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Financial-planning.jpg" alt="Financial-planning" width="449" height="298" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I just attended a 2 days superb financial training which was held in my work place. The financial training is called <strong><em>FISH &#8211;  Financially Independent Strong &amp; Healthy</em></strong>, conducted by PM Dr. Ahmad Rahman Songip, a trainer/consultant from Harvest the Mind Sdn. Bhd.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The single most important reason cited by many studies on the causes of numerous family and personal problems is the inability to <em>manage financial matters</em>.  It seems that we are not at all prepared to face the reality of life in managing our financial matters. The reason is simply because <em>financial literacy</em> is never being taught in school and university education systems. We are not taught and trained on how to manage our financial matters and <em>how to become rich and wealthy</em>!</p>
<p>So how do we <em>manage our financial matters</em>? Mostly by simply following the way our parent or our peers did.   Then through several trials and errors, and surely more errors along the way, only then we may see the correct way of managing our financial matters. By then, it may be already too late for some of us.</p>
<p><em>Personal financial management</em> is a long term planning effort.  The old saying, “<em>Failing to plan is planning to fail</em>” is the truth in financial management. Due to financial illiteracy, many going to be pensioners are still in the dark on their financial status and still need to work after their retirement age.</p>
<p>I must say that FISH has provided some foundation in practical financial literacy and the mechanics of financial planning and management so that I can attain the status of financial independence, at least by the time I reach the mandatory retirement age. If one follows the recipe offered in the training with the right mind-set, one could theoretically retire earlier and wealthier.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I highly recommend any of you regardless of your age or financial situation to attend this training. The next one will be held this October 2010. The fees of this training is RM2480. However, I&#8217;m currently negotiating with Dr. Ahmad to provide some discount to my blog readers. I&#8217;ll update the discount soon here.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">What I can say about this <strong><em> Financially Independent Strong &amp; Healthy (FISH) </em></strong>training:</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">- Provided me better clearer understanding on financial management.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">- Provided me to be clear tips on what I should do and should avoid in managing my financial matters.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">- Showed me the best investment that all of us should do.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">- Much-much more&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I love this course and everyone who attended liked it too. The trainer&#8217;s presentation was not only clear but also entertaining. I can relate with him because when he was at the same age as me, he realized that he was doing financially terrible and cannot save a dime.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1595" title="email-marsya" src="http://cyza.us/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/email-marsya.jpg" alt="email-marsya" width="450" height="294" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">My father cc the email above to me while replying to Marsya. It was Marsya&#8217;s first email to her grandfather after learning about email <a href="http://cyza.us/2010/06/introducing-email-blog-and-facebook-to-my-son-daughter/">last week</a>. I love to read this email because it shows the interaction between a 6 year old kid with her 64 year old grandfather. The age gap is 58 years and how amazing technology can connect them both.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Marsya sent the email yesterday and she waited for Tokwan (grandfather) to reply fast. However, we have to inform that Tokwan can only reply tomorrow (today) when he is in office. Today, Tokwan replied and I witness this miracle and I&#8217;m very happy.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The sentence highlighted in blue is written by Marsya. In English in sound:</p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Grandfather, how are you doing? If you are healthy, Marsya will be happy.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Was that cute? My father replied:</p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I&#8217;m good Marsya. Thanks for this email. I&#8217;ll pray that you can be clever and grow quickly so that you can go to school. I love it when my grandchildren can often email me.</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The reply was equally cute for me&#8230;</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Good Sunday every one!!!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I hope the weekend has been a great one for you. It has been good for me. The whether was and is superbly nice. The sky is clear and the sunshine is not that hot. We even do not need to switch on the fan. The temperature is really good and low.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I spent the last several hours yesterday to update my long lost twitter account and filling up the profile of my new Linked account. All this while I have ignored both twitter and Linked. I only regularly visit Facebook to check on some updates of friends and groups. Facebook has been a good web 2.0 marketing tool for me so far and I really love that. I have created a <a href="http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/group.php?gid=13727989982&amp;ref=ts">chemical engineering group</a> and the progress is awesome. Maybe I can create another group in Linkedin. Need to analyze it first before doing that.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The social site media like Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin and MySpace are very important tool for us to help us leverage our online presence and business. I&#8217;m still exploring ways and possible strategies as well as opportunities to boost my marketing and branding online via those social sites.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I&#8217;m welcoming you to join my network on those site. Following are my details:</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a title="Join my microblogging with twitter" href="http://twitter.com/zakiyamani">Twitter.com/zakiyamani</a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a title="Join me if you have not... :)" href="http://www.facebook.com/zakiyz">Facebook.com/zakiyz</a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://Linkedin.com">Linkedin</a> &gt; I&#8217;m not sure yet how you can connect to me (remember&#8230; I&#8217;m still new here), but I assume if you are in Linkedin, you can send me email or search for my name/email. If you know how to connect with me, please also let me know&#8230; I&#8217;m a little bit lost here.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">OK guys, that&#8217;s it for now. I got some weekend social activities to do later. Need to get myself and my family ready.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Before that&#8230; The Argentina-German game was amazing. The Spain-Paraguay was for me just OK&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;..</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1581" title="jabulani_4" src="http://cyza.us/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/jabulani_4.jpg" alt="jabulani_4" width="450" height="335" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Believe it or not, the clock is showing 5.22 am now and I&#8217;m not sleeping yet. Yes, it is World Cup season and I just witnessed some unexpected and sad drama just now. We (me and my wife) watched the mighty Brazil defeated by underdog orange Dutch. What an amazing result, but why the heck not&#8230;. This world cup has been serving us with tremendous surprises!!!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">After that I continued surfing the net, explored few sites, entered and posted in a forum (not making money forum, instead I lingered in a chemical engineering forum) and checked on my blogs. My other half just sigh, looking at her husband&#8217;s focusing and staring at the laptop&#8230;haha&#8230; Then the next game started, African sole representative, Ghana versus South American side, Uruguay. It was I can say not an interesting match at the beginning, but towards the end of the 1st half, a long range wonder struck by Ghana&#8217;s player (I forgot his name) gave Ghana an early lead. 10 minutes after the second half, ex-Manchester United striker, Diego Forlan volleyed a superb free kick into Ghana&#8217;s goal, leveling the score to 1-1.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The real drama was really at the dying minute of the extra time when Luis Soarez, Uruguay&#8217;s striker wearing jersy #9 who have so far scored 4 goals in the world cup campaign, stopped the ball from crossing the goal post using his hand (he forgot that he was not a goal keeper!!!) and saw red. Penalty was awarded and it was surely going to be Ghana&#8217;s way should Gyan scored it. It was God&#8217;s fate that Gyan shot the top center of the cross bar, denying Ghana both a goal and a semi-final spot. Oh gosh!!! What a missed and what a chance!!!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">So, the outcome were be decided from penalty kick and Ghana lost the battle. What a pity. They had their precious golden chance in a minute but few moments after that they were doomed. Well, this is football. This is the drama. We are the spectators. We witness the joy and we see sadness. We feel happy and we feel sad. For me, all this while I only supported the underdogs in the match. So, in this situation, the underdog was Ghana, which rank lower than Uruguay. I just pity them, pity Gyan, pity the players and coach, pity the entire supporters and their country.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">It&#8217;s now 5.44 am, and I&#8217;ll stop typing in a short while and will hit the bed. Ops&#8230;before that, I&#8217;ll perform my Subuh prayer.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Moral of the story:</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The ball is round in shape. Anything can happen no matter how hard we work or how much we pray. God knows the best for us. What we have to do is work consistently and diligently as such that we will live our lives for the next 1,000 years.  At the same time, we need to pray and worship our God such that we will die the next day.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">So, you and me, we need to work hard and stay focus in what we do. So, if you are focusing in making money from blogs, than do it right. If you want to flip websites, than do it. If you want to perform Hajj at 40, then adjust and prepare yourself for that. All of it require perfect planning and execution. OK, I need to stop now. I don&#8217;t know where I will end if I keep on typing here&#8230;haha&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In the mean time, in case you are interested to win an Ipad and earn substantial dollar cash, here is a contest launched by <a href="http://www.revresponse.com/join.php?refbrand=chem-eng">Revresponse</a>. Check out the details and I believe you can do that by registering an account with them first if you have not own one yet. I have been making money with Revresponse on a monthly basis and it is seriously very rewarding.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.revresponse.com/join.php?refbrand=chem-eng"> <img src="http://img.revresponse.com/250_250.gif" alt="" /></a></p>
<p>OK, now it&#8217;s actually 6.10 am&#8230; and I&#8217;m really going to stop, shut off this white Toshiba laptop.</p>
