Malaysia Independence Day

Hello and assalamualaikum again ! Dear Malaysians ..

31 August 1957 marks the day as that the Federation of Malaya gained its Independence from British colonization , forming what we know of today as MALAYSIA . This day is also known as Hari Merdeka in the Malay language and that is why the celebration of Independence Day is incomplete without the seven shouts of "MERDEKA!" . This gesture was initiated by our first Prime Minister , Tunku Abdul Rahman . 

Although it is only a one day public holiday , the celebration builds up from a month before right up to Malaysia Day which is on 16 of September .

Every year there is a specific theme for Independence Day such as "Malaysiaku Gemilang" , "1Malaysia: Transformasi Negara" and so on . These themes will be reflected in the decorations and focus for Independence Day that year .

During the month of August , you will see most Malaysians express their patriotism by raising the Malaysian flag on the vehicles , balcony of their homes and even along the street . During this time , all that government buildings and shopping malls are hoisted with Jalur Gemilang . The whole build up towards Malaysia Independence with pride and joy where competitions and parades will be held , sometimes the children practice for performances which will be presented during Independence Day itself.

In short , Independence Day serves as a reminder to all Malaysians to appreciate the tough fight our ancestors had fought and to educate the current generation about the spirit of Independence .

Last word from me , HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY TO ALL , DEAR MALAYSIANS ! 

Life WITHOUT technology ??

Assalamualaikum and hello :)

A life without technology would be a nightmare ! In this day and age , almost every single person uses technology in some way , shape or foam to make life easier . Yes , for most people , technology is not something we give a second thought to , but some people are literally can't live without it - and we aren't being dramatic . It's true !

Most of us are dependent on those technology , right ? If you really think about it , we expect and depend so much on technology for so many things in our life . If the power turned off and we didn't have our phones , tablets and laptops , what would we do ? Would we know how to cope with the sudden change ?  

For example , it is true that technology has helped so many people in business and everyday life . 

Can you imagine what would happen if companies and important information was gone ?

Almost everyone has a computer or a laptop or some other electrical device.

Next , I'm pretty sure that all of you have at least one dictionary at your home . But , how many of you still using it to help with spelling , pronunciation and definitions ? Or how many people still have encyclopedia at their homes anymore ? Ohh , I know computers and apps are substitute for it . If there is no technology , there was no internet . If there is no internet , there was no Google . I know majority of us learn a lot of things from Google and the internet .

Anyway , for me , too much much technology leads to too much much reliance on it , and if you are without it , you may become depressed or angry . There are many helpful tools on the Internet , but I also do feel like people should sometimes take a break from the internet so they don't become too reliant on it .

However , technology has blessed and helped me personally in so many ways and I am so thankful for it , but writing this entry has really got me thinking ... how can we do this without it ? 

I think that's all . Stop imagine . Back to the reality . Goodbye :)
