  • Dis-advantages :

  • Some people (especially teens) get so much addicted to cell phones for talking, video, messaging, games, etc that they forget the real purpose of the phone and waste large part of their time in unnecessary interaction over their cell phones.

  • Nothing more can be a distraction for a teached in the classroom, when a student's phone rings. Cell phones are increasingly becoming a problem for the schools during classroom hours and are becoming a means of cheating during examinations and other kinds of ability tests. All this is really bad and does hurt the future of the student, who doesn't realize that he/she is him/her-self responsible for it.

  • Health of those living in the vicinity of cell phone towers is becoming a growing concern. Towers result into an area with concrete development along with destruction of natural features (vegetation etc) around the place. The towers also emit strong electromagnetic signals, which can be health hazard for those living nearby and who are getting exposed to strong radiations continuously during a good span of their lives.

#155 Drinking!

Many people consider milk and juice great sources of vitamins, nutrients, and protein. They are right, but you cannot only drink juice and milk and expect to stay healthy! You need a minimum of 8 glasses of water a day to stay in top shape. Water increases the speed of your metabolism, helps digestion, keeps you hydrated for activity, and will keep you from overheating. Stay away from soda if at all possible. Soda is filled with simple carbohydrates such as sugar which is very bad for you and it also contains loads of calories and fat! Caffeine is also an addictive drug found in soda which will cause you to continue drinking it even when you may be satisfied. Caffeine will also stimulate the brain and keep you awake at night causing you to lose sleep. Soda is one of the worst types of drinks you can have when trying to diet and stay healthy. I believe that the worst type of drink, however, is alcoholic drinks. They contain complex carbohydrates and loads of calories which will cause you to put on weight. Alcohol also impairs the body's ability to function at its prime level. If I could give someone advice it would be to stick with 8 glasses of water, a few glasses of milk, and maybe 1 glass of juice a day. There are many other sources of foods that can give you the vitamins found in juice, but without the sugar and fat! Research healthy drinks and foods that appeal to you so that you can setup an appropriate diet that works for you! I don't like water is an excuse I often here from people. This is not a good excuse! Water has no taste! Yes, it may be boring, but you must drink it in order to stay healthy. Don't put your exercise and diet to waste! Drink water much better :D

#154 Exercise!

It is very important to exercise. Exercise is important because it can keep you in shape and will improve your health for the better. Many studies have shown that regular activities and exercise can improve someones overall health substantially. Exercise reduces the risk of heart disease, stroke, certain cancers, and high blood pressure. Exercise can also help you to maintain healthy bones, muscles, and joints. Sports competitors must do physical activity on a regular basis to maintain their level of performance because it is necessary to train the body to be able to withstand physical activity.

Along with physical activity comes weight loss. Weight loss can improve the meantal well-being and boost the confidence of any particular person. Also, studies have shown that people who exercise on a regular basis tend to live longer than those who don't. With all of these benefits in mind, i'm not sure why anyone wouldn't want to be physically fit and active! Try exercising a minimum of 3-4 days a week. Exercising includes walking, running, jogging, painting, biking, and there are plenty of other activities to try as well. My advice would be to pick something you enjoy doing and wouldn't mind doing on a regular basis and sticking to a schedule. You can even pick a few different activities to mix things up and keep it interesting. In weight training most people will work different muscle groups on different days in order to best work their body without over-doing it. This also saves time during the day because instead of working out for 3-5 hours in one day you can workout for an hour a day 3-5 days a week. It spreads out the exercise so you don't get sick of it and dread going. Also, your body will respond better because you will not be putting too much stress on yourself. Also, always stretch before physical activity! This is very important so that you do not pull or strain any muscles. Most importantly, to maintain a healthy body you must stay ACTIVE! :D

#151 Malaysia Day


Malaysia Day is held on September 16 every year to commemorate the establishment of the Malaysian federation on the same date in 1963. It marked the joining together of Malaya, North Borneo, Sarawak, and Singapore to form Malaysia. The formation of the new federation was planned to occur on June 1, 1963, but was later postponed to August 31, 1963, in order to coincide with the sixth Hari Merdeka. Several issues related to the Indonesian and the Filipino objection to the formation of Malaysia delayed the declaration to September 16 of the same year. The postponement was also done to allow the United Nations team time to conduct referendums in North Borneo (now Sabah) and Sarawak regarding the two states participation in a new federation.


The formation of Malaysia was made possible through the introduction of the Malaysia Bill to the Malayan Parliament on July 9, 1963, and consent from the Yang di-Pertuan Agong on August 29, 1963.

Prior to the formation of Malaysia, Sarawak gained its independence on July 22, 1963, while Singapore and North Borneo (which was renamed Sabah) unilaterally declared independence from the United Kingdom on August 31, 1963, thus coinciding with the sixth anniversary of the Malayan Independence.
