nothing much but SUISSE came into my mind~

well nothing much to say these days..looks like it's finally Friday. fuhh~ another one week of working days is finally over..hmm,nex Monday would be 28th, so means that we are moving in to March..How so fast the time is moving..huhu.

Aha, Papa would be back from Switzerland today..yeay!! He went there for 6 days, since last Sunday. Can't wait for him to come home, the first thing i would grab is his Business Class toiletries bag..heheh..last time he went overseas, he brought back 2 of them, and there was Crabtree and Evelyn goodies..:) best! heheh, apart from that, i am sure he would be taking home lotsa Swiss chocolates..yummy! hehe..how I missed all those chocolates..Some years in the past, it's from 1997 to 2000..me and my brother used to travel all the way to Geneva,Switzerland, each winter, to be with our family..It was the time when Papa was posted there in the Malaysian Embassy. Too bad we didnt get the chance to go to school there..it was too expensive and Papa cannot afford 3 of his children studying there.. Only my younger bro and sis was together with them. And my bro was in a French school. Lucky for him, he can speak French fluently until today. huhu.*jealous* heheh..my lil sis grew up there, and she developed rosy cheeks because of the weather there..and apparently she managed to keep it until today.haha.that's what they gained from being in Swiss for 4 years..

I really wish I could go back to Switzerland, and enjoy the view of the Alps from the house again..*sigh*

Talking about the Alps, and now i can actually feel the chill (ehem, i am in an air-conditioned room,eheh)..I read in Utusan Online about the opposite-of-the-Alps weather we are experiencing in Msia..

Suhu 21 Mac dijangka 40% Celsius
Oleh: S. ANAND KUMAR
KUALA LUMPUR 24 Feb. - Negara akan mengalami pancaran matahari paling terik pada 21 Mac ini dengan suhu dijangka mencecah 40 darjah Celsius ekoran fenomena ekuinoks.
Pada tarikh itu, matahari yang sedang bergerak dari kawasan hemisfera selatan ke hemisfera utara akan berada betul-betul di atas garisan khatulistiwa yang menyebabkan keadaan panas terik.
Jurucakap Pusat Ramalan Kaji Cuaca, Jabatan Perkhidmatan Kaji Cuaca ketika dihubungi di sini, hari ini berkata, pada masa itu, pancaran matahari akan tepat ke bumi yang menyebabkan keadaan bumi lebih panas dan suhu akan meningkat.
``Akibatnya, pada hari tersebut kita akan merasai cuaca yang amat panas kerana sinaran matahari yang terik.
``Bagaimanapun ia tidak berada di tahap yang membahayakan atau membimbangkan, tetapi diharapkan orang ramai tidak akan berjemur atau melakukan terlalu banyak aktiviti luar,'' katanya.
Jurucakap itu berkata demikian ketika diminta menjelaskan fenomena ekuinoks yang dikatakan menjadi penyebab kepada suhu panas sekarang.
Semalam Penolong Ketua Pengarah jabatan berkenaan, Wong Teck Kiong berkata, keadaan itu tidak dapat mengatasi rekod yang pernah dicatatkan iaitu 40.1 darjah Celsius pada 9 April 1998 di Chuping, Perlis.
Menurut jurucakap itu, ekuinoks bukanlah satu kejadian yang luar biasa yang berlaku secara tiba-tiba.
``Biasanya negara mengalami suasana panas begini dua kali setahun kerana kedudukan Malaysia berhampiran dengan garisan khatulistiwa,'' katanya.
Tambah jurucakap itu, pihaknya menjangkakan cuaca panas dan kering akan berlarutan sehingga penghujung bulan depan.
Bagaimanapun kata beliau, kebakaran hutan yang berlaku di beberapa tempat di seluruh negara sekarang bukan disebabkan oleh fenomena itu, tetapi pelbagai faktor lain termasuk kecuaian manusia.
``Kebakaran hutan yang kerap berlaku sekarang bukanlah disebabkan oleh fenomena ekuinoks ini,'' katanya.

Wow, I'd better get ready anyway. The car got enough sun these days. Kills the colour.
