French Vs English, Which one is hard?

From the pronunciations and languages, French will win the title of the hardest to read.. But do you think so?


Try to read this text in quote below.... I'm sure that your tongue will get twisted!

I've tried, failed!! Failed! Failed! and failed again
I take it you already know
Of tough and bough and cough and dough.
Others may stumble, but not you,
On hiccough, thorough, though, and through -
Well done!
And now you wish perhaps
To learn of less familiar traps?
Beware of heard, a dreadful word
That looks like beard and sounds like bird,
And dead – it’s said like bed, not bead.
Watch out for meat and great and threat
(They rhyme with suite and straight and debt).
A moth is not a moth in mother,
Nor both in bother, broth in brother.
And here is not a match for there
Nor dear and fear for bear and pear.
And then there’s dose and rose and lose,
Just look them up – goose and choose
And cork and work and card and ward
And front and font, and word and sword
And do and go, and wart and cart -
Come! Come! I’ve hardly made a start!
A dreadful language? Man alive!
I mastered it – when I was five!!!

Apart from being a singer, Ayumi is also a songwriter, a model, an actress, and a composer. Ayumi started her musical career in 1994 and released her first album “NOTHING FROM NOTHING” in 1995; the album was not successful, and she was subsequently dropped by her record label. In 1998, Hamasaki released her first single,Poker Face, via the Avex Trax label, after being discovered by label head Masato “Max” Matsuura partying at the avex-owned club, Velfarre.

Eat for 1st time since 10 Nov 09 arrest

CHIBA - Tatsuya Ichihashi, the prime suspect in the 2007 murder of British woman Lindsay Hawker, ate for the first time Tuesday since his arrest two weeks ago, police said. Ichihashi, 30, ate a meal served at lunchtime at Gyotoku Police Station in Chiba Prefecture, a few hours before he was transferred to a detention facility inside the Chiba prison, which has doctors and nurses.

He had refused to eat since his Nov 10 arrest and health concerns prompted the Chiba prefectural police to file for court permission for his transfer. The police received permission on Tuesday morning.
During his transfer at around 3 p.m., Ichihashi was able to walk without any help and did not stagger, according to the police.
Ichihashi received a nutritional supplement injection on Nov 16 after he staggered when heading to an interrogation room from his cell inside the police station.
He continues to remain silent about the death of 22-year-old Hawker, as well as the charge of abandoning her body.
His arrest came after more than two-and-a-half years on the run on a technical charge of abandoning Hawker’s body in a sand-filled bathtub in his apartment in the Chiba Prefecture city of Ichikawa in March 2007.

Santa Coming from Finland


With about a month to go before Christmas, Santa Claus arrived Sunday at Narita airport on a Finnair flight from Finland. Santa Claus will take part in Christmas events in Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya and other places during his Japan tour through Dec 24, and give gifts to children at nurseries and kindergartens, Finnair said.
Santa comes to Japan around this time every year for charity work as well as promotion of the Finnish airline, it said. At other times, he is busy writing replies at his home to the roughly 500,000 letters received annually from children around the world, according to the airline.


Brunei gets the H1N1 Vaccines


THE first shipment of 1,500 Influenza A (H1N1) doses of vaccines has arrived in Brunei on Monday (2nd November 09), with another 476,000 doses expected to be available for the entire population by the end of January 2010.

The minister told The Brunei Times that the vaccines have only arrived recently although they were scheduled to be released in August, as the vaccines were still in production and had to be tested.

As the country will have a total of 6,000 doses of H1N1 vaccines today, the minister said that 900 of these will be allocated for Haj pilgrims who started their journey yesterday.

Director-general of Health Services Dr Hjh Rahmah Hj Mohd Said said that children aged above six months to 10 years needed to be vaccinated twice, four weeks apart (if they wanted to be vaccinated). However, anyone who intended to be vaccinated over 10 years of age only requires one dose.

He advised the public to try and refrain from visiting cold countries during the upcoming holidays, and urged the public to constantly take precautionary measures. To date, as many as 1,170 people in Brunei have been affected with the virus, according to the ministry, with the most recent case recorded on October 26.

Sorry for no posting for a while

I am very sorry about this, where I can't post anything here recently.


This is because I don't have a time to do posting, and time to check out new stuff around the internet.
Recently I had exams where I spend most of my time sitting in front of my desk and kept staring at my books and notes. (I really don't wanna fail my exam for my first semester) T-T

Anyway, other stuff I need to tell:-

> No New Featured Artist for November 09 (Sorry!), hence Featured Artist of October 09 (Goto Maki) Will continue staying with us here. The Artist chosen for this November will be posted in mid November or December, and will stay till New Year.

> No news recently, cos I've been busy studying, downloading, watching animes,...... +_+ did I just mentioned about downloading and watching? XD

> Upcoming Events news will be posted sooner in here for info. So better check out (especially to Bruneians)
