Hello! Today is the day where I sat for my second year's final examination! Obviously, I was very tensed and stressed up for the past few months in order to prepare for the examinations. In fact, I believe everyone who is sitting for end year exams is equally, if not more anxious than me. Having studied days and nights without any entertainment (maybe slightly) and human contact was tough enough, let alone cramming piles of notes that were impossible to be digested within months for a mere two-day assessment test.

Right after the moment where the final paper was collected by the examiner, I was relieved, for the fact that the ordeal is finally over (or so I thought). At the moment, I am anxiously waiting for the results to be announced in six days time. It is definitely going to be an extremely long period (probably the longest period of my life) for me to deal with. I am crossing my fingers and praying hard to pass my second year in medical school! Having said that, I am so tired and could barely think anything to continue my post. Before I end this post, I would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone all the best in their examinations. Till then, au revoir ! :)

Every kid has their first time in everything. First time watching their parents. First time seeing a dog. First time playing with play-dough. And the list goes on and on. This is no exception to Buzz, a toddler who had his first encounter with dandelions! Father of the child, Tom Fletcher, a guitarist to the English band McFly, Youtuber, and an author, brought his son Buzz to the field and recorded his son's reaction when he saw his dad blew the dandelion. Later he uploaded it on his Youtube channel and within 24 hours, the video literally goes viral and has already been viewed by more than 500 000 viewers! It is not surprising to me as the adorable Buzz's laughter is hilarious! Who can ever resist a cute child's laughter! (definitely not me). Watch the video below and let me know your thoughts about it in the comments section. Till then, au revoir! :)

I have discovered this amazing music video of ' Let It Go' released by Disney in its YouTube Channel which was performed in 25 different languages across the world. What I find surprising is that most of the languages share common intonation system! I am truly amazed by how well the song flows although it is made up of entirely different language version that are combined together. The list of languages is shown below:

Recently cosmetics brand Garnier has conducted an experiment to show the effects of fatigue on people. They included a working lady with children as their specimen and the test took a day long.

First, a picture of the woman was taken before she conducted her usual daily activities such as working and fetching her children to school. The photo was shown to the public and they were asked to guess the age of the woman. The answers varied between 26 and 32. Then another picture was taken at the of the day after she returned home (13 hours later) and was again shown to the stranger on the road to identify her age. Surprisingly. majority of the people answered it between 35 to 40! It seemed that tiredness can actually make you look older by 5 years!

Having said that, I think we all should be aware of the adverse effect of tiredness on us and more importantly, we should get adequate amount of rest each day! Watch the full video below and let me know your thoughts and your experience in the comments . Till then, au revoir! :)

A Seattle-based street artist named Peregrine Church has created impressive art pieces all around gloomy Seattle which often rains. What is interesting with his arts is that they are invisible until it starts pouring rain. Peregrine uses super hydrophobic sprays and spray on the printed templates with positive notes that he had placed on the road.

He called it as the Rainworks. When the spray dries, you would not notice any changes until the road was wet. The areas that were sprayed would remain dry and create a contrast of light and dark grey. showing the image of the art. According to the descriptions of the website, "Rainworks are positive messages and art that appear when it rains. Their purpose: To make people smile on rainy days."

Recently Rihanna has released her latest song 'FourFiveSeconds' from her upcoming eighth album, R8. The song also features famous singers such as Kanye West as well as Paul McCartney from The Beatles! However, only both Rihanna and Kanye was singing in the music video while Paul McCartney was strumming his guitar all the way. The song received numerous positive reviews from music critics once it was released!

"I've made a lot of songs that are just really, really big songs that just blow up and I wanted to just kind of get back to, well not that they weren't real music, but I just wanted to focus on things that felt real, things that felt soulful, that felt forever....I wanted songs that I can perform in 15 years. I want an album that I can perform in 15 years, not any songs that will burn out." -Rihanna

Personally I think the song is so amazing and I am so surprised that Paul actually collaborated with Rihanna and Kanye! What do you think about the song? Enjoy the music video below! Till then, au revoir! :)



FourFiveSeconds lyrics

I think I've had enough, I might get a little drunk
I say what's on my mind, I might do a little time
Cause all of my kindness, is taken for weakness

Now I'm Four Five Seconds from wildin'
And we got three more days 'til Friday
I'm just tryna make it back home by Monday, mornin'
I swear I wish somebody would tell me
Ooh thats all I want

Woke up an optimist, sun was shining I'm positive
Then I heard you was talkin' trash
Hold me back I'm bout' to spaz

Now I'm Four Five Seconds from wildin'
And we got three more days 'til Friday
I'm just tryna make it back home by Monday, mornin'
I swear I wish somebody would tell me
Ooh thats all I want

And I know that you're up tonight
Thinkin' how could I be so selfish
But you called bout a thousand times wondering where I been
Now I know that your up tonight
Thinkin' how could I be so reckless
But I just can't apologize, I hope you can understand

If I go to jail tonight, promise you'll pay my bail
See they want to buy my pride, but that just ain't up for sale
See all of my kindness, is taken for weakness

Now I'm Four Five Seconds from wildin'
And we got three more days 'til Friday
I'm just tryna make it back home by Monday, mornin'
I swear I wish somebody would tell me
Ooh thats all I want

Now I'm Four Five Seconds from wildin'
And we got three more days 'til Friday
I'm just tryna make it back home by Monday, mornin'
I swear I wish somebody would tell me
Ooh thats all I want

One Decision is a devastating and heart-aching short film about a mother and her toddler. After driving to the supermarket, the mother has made one silly decision, which results in the death of her son. Thinking that the grocery shopping would be done within minutes, she left him in the car with the engine off and went into the shopping mall. Without her knowledge, the baby was literally sweating profusely and crying for help when the mother was still in the supermarket after some time.

Several strangers saw the baby in the car but they did nothing to rescue him as the car was locked. Eventually, two men came to the rescue and broke the side window and grabbed the baby out of the car. Nonetheless, it was all too late as the baby was unconscious and dead. This incidents happen all too often today.

Statistic shows that in every 10 days a child dies from heatstroke alone in the US. It can take as little as 15 minutes in an overheated car for a child to suffer life-threatening brain or kidney injuries. When the body temperature reaches 41.5 degree Celsius, the child dies.

PLEASE DON'T EVER LEAVE YOUR CHILD IN THE CAR!

All these deaths are actually preventable and people need to be aware of it. One simple decision can save or take away a person's life. Watch the video and do help to share it amongst your friends and families. Till then, au revoir!

On 15 March 2015 live show, one of the X Factor New Zealand's judges, Natalia Kills, accused contestant Joe Irvine of impersonating her husband. She was absolutely infuriated by Joe's suit and haircut and stated that she was embarrassed to be the judge and comment on Joe's performance.

“As an artist who respects creative integrity and intellectual property, I am disgusted at how much you have copied my husband,” she said. “From the hair to the suit, do you not have any value or respect for originality? You’re a laughing stock. It’s cheesy, it’s disgusting. I personally found it absolutely artistically atrocious.” -Natalia Kills

Adding fuel to the fire, her husband, Willy Moon stated, "To me, it just feels a little bit cheap and absurd. It's like Norman Bates dressing up in his mother's clothing. It feels a little and I feel like you are going to stitch someone's skin to your face and then kill everybody in the audience, but you do you."

After getting massive criticisms from the public, both of them were fired from the show the next day.
However, several singers were very supportive and even defended Joe Irvine.

"@Popjustice good point. Didn't realise he invented the skinny suit & slick back. But then what do I know? At least he had gaga to defend him." -Bastille

"@jooe63_joe don't worry about what everyone else says man, Enjoy yourself with it, that's what singing is about, not what other people think." -Ed Sheeran

"Can't stop myself from commenting on NZ X Factor situation because I can't stop thinking about how mean it was. Thank goodness they're gone." -Ellie Goulding

Lorde even took the effort to send Joe a box of cupcakes and a handwritten note, advising him to be himself.

Hi Joe,
Just wanted to say: your individuality, positive energy & spirit are infectious! I think you’re doing an awesome job on the show so far. I’m a performer too, & I wanted to say that no matter how many people make fun of me for how I dress, move & act, I’m being me — and that’s what’s important.

Good luck & lots of love,
Lorde
