Konsert Kebudayaan

 

Last Saturday my school had a performance. I dunno what they call it in English but Malay they call it Malam Kebudayaan or Konsert Kebudayaan. The performance started at 7.30pm & I arrived at 6.45pm. At that very moment, I started thinking back how fun was the concert I performed last year. Too bad this year I can't perform anymore because I joined computer club now. Haiz... wish I still can perform in school 1 day...

The performance last Saturday was quite nice, although the students screamed when they turned off the lights in the hall. I thought that night I'll be sitting with my classmates but no. I sat with that guy who asked me to come that day.

To see more about that night performance, you may see the photos I taken that night in my “Malam Kebudayaan” photo album. Sorry about the pictures quality, due to lack of lights, the camera can't take good shots.

Sun may save sight

Australian researchers believe that sunshine may prevent children from becoming short-sighted. A comparison of children of Chinese origin living in Singapore & Sydney found the rate of myopia in the Singaporeans was ten times higher. The key difference was that the Sydney kids spent almost four times long outdoors. Researchers say sunlight is the key - it increases dopamine levels which inhibits excessive eye growth, a known myopia cause. Study co-author Dr Kathy Rose still recommends sunglasses, as they don't seem to stop the dopamine release:"Protecting children's eye from UV is the appropriate thing to do.
