"Vanity and pride are different things, though the words are often used synonymously. A person may be proud without being vain. Pride relates more to our opinion of ourselves, vanity to what we would have others think of us."

Eid al-Fitr



Its 6th days more before we celebrate the Big Day or we called Eid al-Fitr. In which, marks the end of the month of Ramadan, the month of fasting. The word Fitr means "to break" which symbolizes the breaking of the fasting period and of all evil doing.

To marks such awaiting celebration are assorted preparation ranging from foods to cloths, different type of savories(sweet/biscuit/baklava) and i can't sure what else in the lists.

Working and staying abroad certainly bring emotional disturbance and stressful situation whenever the big day come. I missed my family and friends. But I've got my students and Mr Husband aka Steve! and baby Sophie. Lucky me!

ok! the thought of writing this post has made me sober. Don't wanna spoil that mood. Let see the pic, these has just arrived! Thanks sis, i love you! its more than enuff.

Je peux pas le voir. C'est vraiment un encule'


WHAT ?! i have to teach 2 subjects! that's equal to 6 hours per week! this is too much! ;-)

2 subjects X 4 hours preparation + 2 hour consultation = 10 hours.

In conclusion i have to stay back in my teaching office at Columbia University for total of 16 hours per week.

What are the subjects :

1 Mathematical Analysis and Proofs for MSc of Eng. & MSc in Comp Sci.

2 The History of Mathematics for M.Ed


The Dean of Graduate Faculty wrote these information on a piece of note and plastered on my door. Gee codswallop! I'd never did this to any of my staffs when i was a Dean at Monash University in Malaysia. I should have snap the picture!

Some people's just forgot about how to behave to others, regardless of your age. How could he call himself a Professor!

They likes to bullies young professors, telling shits to others that we have insufficient experience ; stereotypes; famous for being young, handsome and attractive! (hello! you are way to old and aging! please put some anti-aging creams)

I have no issue whatsoever on teaching load , for the reason that i simply loves teaching. But some "CONNARD" likes to disturbs our mood. Je peux pas le voir. C'est vraiment un encule'. I dedicated my French to the idiot bugger.
