1. We are approaching the new year's eve. Have you been thinking of what will you do and how you're going to end the moment of this year and start the new 2012? Where will we be at during the countdown? It must be worth very much, more than just a party rite?

2. This is just a new video shared by a friend in Facebook, and I love the video. See how the World Searched with Google's 2011 Zeitgeist presenting the most searched events on Google in 2011.

3. Google did their review, and I do think we should review on ourselves too about all good deeds and bad deeds. If you're a Muslim than you must know 'muhasabah' is always recommended even for everyday before we sleep. Review does not mean to make ourselves regret about the past, but mean to be inspire us to be better for tomorrow. 

4. I found a website where it listed all the dates and days for the 'new year's eve' date and 'new year day' date. Well that's a must for people to know that the new year's eve always falls on December 31st and the new year day always falls on 1st January. But I've never noticed that the day will change with right sequence from Monday to Sunday and back to Monday again for the next year and so on. Interesting fact here! Apples 4 The Teacher

Mirror Mirror : Snow White Project 2012

I spend some of my time watching movies on cinema in this long holiday. Four movies are done: Real Steel, RA-One, Ombak Rindu, and Twilight Saga Breaking Dawn. I'm now planning to go for some other movies which really hit the box office now. So the next movies that keep playing back in my mind are Sherlock Holmes 2, Arthur Christmas, Songlap, New Year's Eve and 50/50. And the list may be expanding LOL =D So the story I want to share here is about my new finding called Snow White Project. I saw something so interesting on the way to the theater room for Breaking Dawn Part 1 in TGV cinema Midvalley. It was a big poster showing the upcoming movie yet still far to be released. Presenting the Snow White Project 2012.

Few days ago I read that this movie has just gotten it's title, Mirror Mirror. Imagine that the filming and shooting started in 20 June 2011 and the movie's title are just released last November I guess. So they called it Untitled Snow White Project before the name Mirror Mirror was given. The filming and shooting took place at Montreal Quebec so I have the sense that it must be a very very very beautiful place! Just like how it looks in the trailer! Well I know that Canada is one of the most beautiful country in the world. Anyway this movie is scheduled to hit the theater on the next 16 March 2012. See how they promote their stuff very early and make people waiting for it about three months to meet the release date. It is so exciting yet still too early as you can find very little info about it if you go Google it. Down here is the movie trailer, till we meet the date!

Rabiatul Adawiyah: chess genius of 4 years old.

Yesterday I heard a news from TV3 that the youngest athlete Puteri Rabiatul Adawiyah Mad Zaki, 4 years old will represent Malaysia in the 7th Asian School Chess Championship 2011 in New Delhi, India on this coming 16 December. She is the only national representative in the tournament for under five years category selected based on her expert in mastering chess game. This is so amazing for 4 years old little girl. For me that age is still a baby, for I'm now 21, admit that I still can't remember all the rules of playing chess! Praying all the best for her, as she will make Malaysia proud at the top in that very young age :)

Twitter

I remember the first time I noticed about Twitter and straight away sign up for it in July 2009. Twitter was launched in July 2006 so I was too late about 3 year of realizing Twitter as an online social networking. The first time I sign up for twitter, I have no idea how it actually works out. At that time, I could hardly found my friends on twitter, I guess they were still not into Twitter yet. It is just still a small baby bird :) But i did find one of my classmate there. He might have been in Twitter long time before me. I really miss that time. During those day, I just followed some people and I have a very little followers too. So my timeline was very slow to move. Only few people were tweeting and it took few days to totally fill one page. Nowadays, I have to load many page to see what are my friends tweeting about. It's easy to find friends from school, college or university in Twitter now and it's getting easier to communicate and get the fastest info too. One day I left my computer about 2 hours. When I come back and see the timeline, there are 500++ new tweet I haven't read.  See how's the rate of people tweeting in just one second. Anyway this is my twitter page :p

This is what happen when all 300 million of Twitter users tweet in one second.

The First Post

This is not the first post ever made by me, as this is not the first blog of mine. So 'Streetwise' is actually my second blog. Making this second blog doesn't mean it will be filled with all unfamiliar stuffs that I didn't write it in the first blog 'Never A Bad Day'. Both are personal blogs. The big different I set to 'Streetwise' is just about using the full English language. While the first blog, 'Never A Bad Day' now could hardly make up my mind to fully pen my thought in English. So that's the first aim of 'Streetwise' - full English. The second aim is to test the turn-out of this blog in cyberspace. I wonder how far the contents of this blog will be found by Google users and the other search engine.
