As I start my morning drive as usual, I notice my petrol its at fuel's warning. This indicated me to fill up and feed my car, so i drove to the nearest petrol station and pump it with... petrol, not just any petrol its the NEW! and IMPROVE RON 95!!
Yes!! it the New and Improve Formula RON 95!! with cheaper rate and fuel efficiency!! Yes you heard it rite! in every outlet it stated help's save!!!~ it help save's at the rate of RM 1.80 per litter!
So i got WOW! that like buying gold at a cheap price! so I pump it with the New and Improve Formula RON 95!
So after pumping it with RON 95!! I started my journey, as i drove and drove it seems normal until after driving home I notice something really amazing happen!! My fuel's warning started again!! and I was like WTF! I just pump~!~!
SO! what the word again?? mmmm yea! help's save!! I went back to the petrol station this time and PUMP RON 97, this time I notice its long lasting and has more power!!
Am I dreaming or I just got ripped off, if i use the petrol regularly mean's i'm actually paying double in price for the petrol. SO! where the help saving part?
Its been almost 5 month since I started my first sem degree, its seem after being through foundation(hell) degree becomes a breeze... Seriously!! But it those not mean that breeze for others. I remember there a article regarding architecture student that i saw, it goes something like this:
If you are architecture students you've probably experienced:-the taste of wood glue
-changes in your vocabulary: homework to project, ball to sphere, etc -you don't understand how somebody can spend less than $20 at the supplies store -you hate people telling you "go to sleep" or "do you still have a lot of work?" -your friends and you don't have the same concept of wo
rk "oh, well do it right before class"-you've slept more than 20 straight hours on weekends -you can easily discuss with authority the effects of caffeine on different drinks -no matter the effort you put in a project, somebody will always say “why don’t you add this? or “why don’t you change this here? or “i think that…but…yeah, its ok? -you’ve heard all your ipod songs in a week -you aren’t seen in public without bags under your eyes -whenever you get invited somewhere, it is followed by “or do you have a lot of homework?? -you’ll dance ymca with a choreography without a drop of alcohol in your system -you write down a quick message with rapidographs, lead holders, markers and ink -you constantly make up excuses for courses that are not design related why you didn’t do your work-you have more pictures of landscapes and places than of people-your worst nightmare consists of not finishing a project -someone once called you “lazy? and you wanted them murdered -you can live without human contact, sunlight, food, but if your plotter’s ink runs out… chaos!!! -when somebody lends you a Bic pen you look down at it -you don’t care about sports cars, your favorite car is the one where you can put in your model and your huge computer-you design spectacular things without the idea of the cost -you have the modern mark: a blister in your palm’s hand for the constant use of your mouse -everybody tells you how they admire your work, “but there is no money for it? -you’ve gained the ability to sleep in whatever surface: pencils, keyboards, backpacks, your studio mates, food, etc -you always have the idea that your project will always be recognized-when you finally have free time to go out you keep thinking “who was the idiot that designed the restaurant’s bathroom?? “who designed this menu?? or “who designed this chair, table, lighting, fork, etc?-you've been at many sunrises, yet you've never seen one -you need to read all this in a facebook group to realize how weird your life is

NOW with going green architecture~
We Need to think enviromental friendly, when we waste all our wastage making mock up models
Taking the remote, switching the the T.V~ and what pop's out? the discovery channel~ As the channel its introducing a new method to save the enviroment by burying carbon gas in our atmosphere into the deep ocean.
As i think for a second, by switching on the television I had wasted an amount of nonrenewable energy.
SO!~ what and how we are suppose to go green?? or help the enviroment? So~ I ask my friend "GOOGLE" and thus tips pops out on how to solve the enviroment problem.
Adopt Something. An animal, a stream, a whale. There's almost no limit to the number of environmental causes to which you, your friends, or your class can turn. Avoid Fast Food.
Bike Instead Of Ride. Riding your bike instead of riding in a car saves energy and reduces pollution, of course. But it is also fun! That makes it a double benefit. Boycott A Product. Choose something that you feel is not good for the environment. Once you decide not to buy it, write a letter to the company's president (the address is often right on the package) and tell him or her why you have decided not to buy the product anymore. If lots of people did this, companies would start making more environmentally responsible products!
Buy Products Made Of Recycled Paper. How can you tell if a package is recycled? Look right on the package. Many have specific claims, such as "made of 100 percent recycled material." However, some recycled packages don't advertise this fact, although there are ways you can find out for yourself. For example, when shopping for cereal, cookies, crackers, and other groceries packaged in cardboard boxes, make sure boxes are made from recycled paper. If the underside is gray or dark brown, the cardboard is made of recycled material. If it's white, it is made of unrecycled material. Change A Light Bulb. By replacing a standard bulb with a compact fluorescent one you will get more light for less money and save a lot of energy. Clean Up A Stream Or Park. Get a group of people together and find a stream or park that needs some tender loving care. Arrange for everyone to meet at a specific time to pick up the trash, weed, perhaps even plant some flowers. Ask local business to donate money, tools, or other supplies you'll need for the task. You also should invite a newspaper reporter or TV news team to come along and report on the event. Make sure to check with the proper local authority in charge of the stream or park to get permission so you are sure not to break any laws.
Close The Refrigerator Door. By leaving it open for just a few extra seconds, you waste a lot of energy. Decide what you want before you open the refrigerator door. Then get it and close the door right away.
Collect Aluminum Cans. You might raise a lot of money in the process. The best thing is to combine this with your stream or park cleanup (see above). Sell the cans you collect to a local aluminum recycler and use the money for something fun! Or donate the money to a worthy environmental organization (see below).
Contribute To A Good Cause. You don't have to contribute a lot of money. In fact, you don't have to contribute money at all. A local environmental group probably can use your and your friends' help in a variety of ways. By volunteering for just a few hours a week, you'll be making a worthwhile contribution to the environment. It will make you feel really good!
Create A Compost Pile. It's easy to do. Find a corner of the yard that's out of the way. Carefully throw food wastes (leftovers, eggshells, coffee grounds, spoiled vegetables, etc.) into a pile and mix with dirt. Every week or so, turn the pile over with a shovel to give it more air. In a few weeks, it will turn into a rich, nutrition soil that will help plants grow. Just think: What used to be "garbage" is now a valuable substance!
Cut Down On Packaging. We've already given you several ways to do this. Keep in mind that about half of what we throw away is packaging. By buying products that have as little packaging as possible, you can help to reduce those mountains of trash.
and the list goes on~ SO! there so many things we can think of when comes to helping the enviroment. So are you doing your part? In helping the enviroment? cause same as you i want the earth remain clean and beautiful
