Dream is something that someone have been wanting so badly and hope to achieve it somehow. It does not matter if our dream is something big, fantastic or anything. Having dreams is a must for everybody. If we have dreams, then we will have our life goal. A goal in life will help us to move and step forward. It is good to have a dream. At least, we know what we want. Dream can help us to improve our life and dream makes our life become meaningful and not empty. But somehow, it is not good to day dream or dreaming something that is impossible to achieve.It is better to dream something that we can achieve eventhough we have to get through lots of obstacle to get to it.
Like i said, everybody have dreams and so do i. I have dreams too.....
I have a dream to finish my study with flying colours. I wish i can finish my degree at overseas university which is something that i've been waiting in my entire life. Studying abroad will help me to improve my life. It will be a life experience if i am able to fulfill my dream. I will learn a lot about life and help me to be independent.
I have a dream to be a good teacher. I would like to contribute to my nation and pay back all the money that Malaysia's citizen have paid in order to finish my study. I'm going to teach disabled children and i know how challenging job it is. I wish i can prove to the whole world that disabled people can also live and do what normal people can do. I want to show the world that disabled people not only have to be appreciate but also given chance to show their ability and be a successful people just like others.
I wish that i can be a useful person to the world, family and my nation. I hope i can help my own people and improve their life in whatever way i can. So that finally i can help to defend my country and protect our independence. i'm proud to be Malaysian and i hope each one of us feel the same way. i'm very greatful to be born here and live in this peaceful country. I hope that our country will not be colonized again. So, let's work together and protect our country from being colonized by other people...
And my last word, dream would be meaningless without courage......

Greenhouse effect
The greenhouse effect is the process in which the emission of infrared radiation by the atmosphere warms a planet's surface. The name comes from an analogy with the warming of air inside a greenhouse compared to the air outside the greenhouse. The Earth's average surface temperature is about 33°C warmer than it would be without the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect was discovered by Joseph Fourier in 1829 and first investigated quantitatively by Svante Arrhenius in 1896. In addition to the Earth, Mars and especially Venus have greenhouse effects.The Earth receives energy from the Sun in the form of radiation. The Earth reflects about 30% of the incoming solar radiation. The remaining 70% is absorbed, warming the land, atmosphere and oceans. For the Earth's temperature to be in steady state so that the earth does not rapidly heat or cool, this absorbed solar radiation must be very nearly balanced by energy radiated back to space in the infrared wavelengths.It is caused by the increasing of carbon dioxide, water vapour and methane that is caused by pollution. Carbon dioxide is released by human as they exhaled and also produced when open burning happened. It is human nature to exhale carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide will increased the earth's temperature. However, greenery such as plants and trees produced oxygen which will balanced the earth's temperature and produced oxygen for human respiration. Unfortunately, nowadays deforestation is happening widely all over the world. Beside that, erosion also happened when there's no longer trees and root to support the soil from sliding.
Greenhouse effect will caused global warming. Climate change can negatively affect the earth's delicate ecosystems. Global warming has been linked to dyingcoral reefs, dangerous new weather patterns and the extinction of plant and animal species.
Many people refer to global warming as a crisis. It is a common misconception that there is nothing an individual can do to abate global warming. One of the best ways to prevent further increase of greenhouse gases is to reduce their emissions. Changing individual consumption patterns may be one of the most effective ways of doing this. Most energy in the Malaysia is produced by the burning of fossil fuels. By reducing our individual use of energy derived from fossil fuels, we can contribute to reduced emissions.Another method for reducing greenhouse gases is to increase their uptake by the environment. This can be done by stimulating the increase of photosynthetic production by primary producers. For this reason there has been a large movement to promote planting trees and restoring forests. However, because trees grow so slowly, this is not a highly effective method of abatement. Therefore scientists are also investigating ways to stimulate phytoplankton growth in the oceans.

Different Aspects of Culture( Tai Chi)
Tai chi chuan (Traditional Chinese: 太極拳; Simplified Chinese: 太极拳; Hanyu Pinyin: tàijíquán; Wade-Giles: t'ai chi ch'üan) is an internal Chinese martial art often practiced with the aim of promoting health and longevity. Tai chi always perform during morning at park by the chinese as we can see nowadays. Tai chi's training forms are well known as slow motion. Some medical studies support its effectiveness as an alternative exercise and a form of martial arts therapy. Tai chi is considered a soft style martial art, applied with internal power to distinguish its theory and application from that of the hard martial art styles.
The Mandarin term translate tai chi as super ultimate boxing or boundless fist.Since the first widespread promotion of tai chi's health benefits in the early twentieth century, it has developed a worldwide following among people with little or no interest in martial training for its benefit to health and health maintenance. Some call it a form of moving meditation, as focusing the mind solely on the movements of the form purportedly helps to bring about a state of mental calm and clarity. Besides general health benefits and stress management attributed to tai chi training, aspects of Traditional Chinese medicine are taught to advanced tai chi students in some traditional schools.
The physical techniques of tai chi are described in the tai chi classics as being characterized by the use of leverage through the joints based on coordination in relaxation, rather than muscular tension, in order to neutralize or initiate attacks. The slow, repetitive work involved in the process of learning how that leverage is generated gently and measurably increases and opens the internal circulation (breath, body heat, blood, lymph, peristalsis, etc.). The study of tai chi involved three subjetc which are meditation, martial art and health. An unhealthy or otherwise uncomfortable person will find it difficult to meditate to a state of calmness or to use tai chi as a martial art. Tai chi's health training therefore concentrates on relieving the physical effects of stress on the body and mind. For those focused on tai chi's martial application, good physical fitness is the first step in effective self-defense. The focus and calmness cultivated by the meditative aspect of tai chi is seen as necessary in maintaining optimum health and in application of the form as a soft style martial art.
What is the benefit of doing tai chi?
Tai chi insignificantly effects on the promotion of balance control, flexibility and cardiovascular fitness and reduced the risk of falls in elderly patients. Tai chi can also help to reduce pain, stress and anxiety. The sow movement in tai chi will help you feel relieved and feel much better if you are in stress. Tai chi helped to improve cardiovascular and respiratory function in healthy subjects as well as those who had undergone coronary artery bypass surgery. Patients that suffer from heart failure, high blood pressure, heart attacks, arthritis, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's, and Alzheimer's may also benefit from tai chi. Besides, T'ai Chi's gentle, low impact movements burn more calories than surfing and nearly as many as downhill skiing.

In a nutshell, i think tai chi is a good exercise or meditation to all of us. It may help us in reducing stress. I've tried once and it worked. So, why don't all of you readers try this meditation. I'm sure you will have lots of fun.....
