Last Sunday I took my children to Pusat Sains Negara at Bukit Kiara. Its a very interesting place to visit and the ticket considerably cheap as well, if we compare to Petrosains. The exhibition also very informative and interactive. The only lacking is just that some of the exhibit is not well maintain. Well, its probably Sunday and they didn't have people to fix the problem for that particular exhibits.
However, above all everything just great. At the entrance they put a model that shows how tsunami hits the shore. Kids can generally understand how tsunami hits the shore by interacting with the model. This model is similar to what I see in the documentary about tsunami by NHK after the 2004 tsunami in Acheh. Surround the model they are ponds with rock gardens and the ponds are made of glasses. Nevertheless my children could not manage to care with the fish. I found its rather fascinating with the rock garden and water fountain and the japanese carps.
In Pusat Sains Negara, we also can see an aquarium with a tunnel whereby people can walk underneath them. This aquarium contains fresh water fish and I tell you the fishes are big. My children were lucky to see two divers fed fishes with bread in the water. Liyana kind of in bewilderment to see people dives in the water doning the mask and oxygen tank. She scared too with the diver.
The exhibition hall were separeted into several science finding. If I were to telling story everything, I don't know when I can complete this entry. Its an awsome place to visit and very educational trip for the children. And I'd like to tell everybody how important to get near to your children and take the oppurtunity to explain what are that all about. Some children, they just like wandering in the exhibition building some want to learn about science and frankly I can see most of them like to playing with the exhibits. They do not actually understand how to relate that exhibits in reality life. So its our responsibility to explain to our children what are that for. They are not meant for toy. They are exhibits for learning. We spent three hours in Pusat Sains Negara.
I would reccomend this place to be visited at least once a year. Science changes every day and I reckon they will improve the exhibitions every now and then.
Then on Wednesday and Thursday I had a two days Research and Development Symposium in Sunway Resort Hotel. Many knows that my technical paper were accepted for final oral presentation. The grand price is RM 3K. Like I have already mentioned earlier on, I don't really care for winning as I know that the other presenter are better than me. The winner of the RnD Symposium was an Arabs who improve mathematical model with Fast Fourier Transform in designing the circuit and transistor for wafer fabrication. I just took the symposium as a platform to introduce myself to the senior management and I am very glad some have noticed us now. I got consolation price that evening and makan makan ........................ huh lebih hebat aku makan dari bersimposium kekekekekeke. Other than that we can cuci mata tengok Miss Tourism from all over the world. Yang macam Altantunya sebijik pun ada pakai selempang Mongolia. Is She a ghost? ............ siap la ko budak.
On Saturday emmmmmmmm as usual on school holidays, kenduri kawen memanjang. But after kenduri Azfar circumcise. On Friday I tried to book time with doctor. The doctor wanted to set the appointment in the morning. I told him that Azfar is still in Ulu Langat and I wanted to go to wedding reception. I would probably arrive home after Zohor. Banyak songeh kan aku. To my supprise, the doctor suggested to me that he can do the circumcision in my house. I'll be glad I replied. By the way, I got new neighbour live next door to me and he is the doctor. So on Saturday after Zohor, the doctor came with his assistant and the circumcision start at about 3.30pm.
Azfar was a brave kid. He is very relax when the doctar start the procedure. He is calm and that help the doctor. By 3.45pm, the procedure completed. And now Azfar has became a gentleman.
Over the weekend we bought him Sahibba. So he could fill his time playing that with his sister and his bibik kekekekeke. Last night I fixed his computer so that he has some entertainment besides Sahibba.

Circumcise
I almost done with this entry yesterday but power disturbance has shutdown my computer and I got to retype again. Mannnnnnnn .......... I hate when I got to repeat things that I should have completed much earlier on.
OK ......................its school holiday and the season starts again. Besides wedding, its a season for boys to have their P*n*s circumcise. Some anticipated with fears and some with bold heart. If you listen to Pagi Di Era, they made as a topic.
Well ......... the evolution of circumcise has change the cultural event in our country. The technique with knives and bamboo sticks with banana stems which handle by tok mudin were later change to scissors and stiches and the latter with lasers and clamps handle by certified doctors.
With the evolution of the technique, today I reckon, not only the muslims doing the circumcise, other races also doing the same things for reason like they understand that its better off to have that 'thing' clean. Other reason that make me feel this way simply because the technology are not made by the muslim but its developed by the Mat Salleh or Chinese.
Ok lets get back to the cultural event. I categorized them into three phases, Zaman Tok Mudim, Small Surgery and the latest with Lasers and Clamp.
I fitted in the phase where the technologies changes from Zaman Tok Mudim to Small Surgery. Since our family have move in Serdang, my parents decided to take me to doctors instead off Tok Mudim. So I don't have the experienced of Mandi Beremdam, Bersiram nor Istiadat Menjunjung. I just off to doctors. Some folks whom circumcise with Tok Mudim told a story that their event were merrier.
Usually their parents will make Berkhatan Beramai Ramai and make some kenduri. Most of them told me that often time their parents will ask them to dip in the stream for hours before going to tok mudim. I don't know why but if you have the reson........, tell me. They will ride a tandu and their father and kins will carry them to to mudim.
Nevertheless, being born in a Javanesse roots, my parents still made a kenduri. Macam kenduri kawen Mind You.......... I reckon last Saturday is the 1st time Arc when to a kenduri anak sunat but grand as wedding reception. Java always JAWORLD hehehehehehe. I can still vividly remember I got RM60 ringgit. 25yrs back RM60 is massive. I bought monopoly and gamewatch. Those years gamewatch is popular as popular as to gameboy. If you ask me whether or not I feel the pain doing the surgery, it is not. However I can feel the pain when the doctor wanted to clean the cut. When they remove the gauze, I screamed. Man......... I can feel the pain and ladies if you don't know how it feel like, why don't you cut the flesh and rub the cut with gauze. Than you can feel the pain.
I got to endure 3 times because the cleaning session were made for three session. Menangis wooo masa kena sentap gauze tuh. The first time I went for cleaning session, I walked in with chest forward and chin up and for the 2nd and 3rd I cringed. Takut juga aku nih hahahahahaha.
Okay. Since I went for second phase I do not know how to telling story the event for those people with Tok Mudim. If you happen to know how it is work maybe you can tell us.
So I planned to send my son for circumcise. Since the surgery is considered dangerous after what had happend to a boy in Pantai Timur, I'd rather not use that method anymore. So I plan to ask doctor to use clamp. The cut will be minimal but the pain still there. Angah aka Tunangan Wan asked me how its feel like. Adaka dia tanya kat aku lagu tuh ........ macam la aku boleh bersunat 2 kali. The best thing is I'll ask to my son laaaaa later how its feel like. I cannot desribe the pain since I'll not do the same again for the 2nd time. Bengong la tunangan wan hahahahaha.
Angah suggested to use laser but I think my son will not have a story to tell to his kids if he use lasers technique. Tak sakit lagu mana nak cerita sama anak kan hahahahah. Lets give him some experience that he will never forget, something that he can share with his kids, something that he can blog to you people.
Azfar is going to circumcise
