StreetDB

I was looking for direction to go to Max Pavilion last year. Then I found this website, and find it quite useful. I tried to search for some places in Penang. Penang Island is so small, yet the website divided Penang Island into 2 sections, timur laut (Northeast) and barat daya (Southwest). What about Northwest and Southeast? I search for Young Hearts from Penang timur laut. No luck. Guess it’s not a significant spot in Penang. Later I tried Straits Quay, no luck as well. However, I do find Island Plaza there. Finally, I can think of another big spot, that is Queensbay Mall! It’s with the barat daya region. Why? Anyway, overall, if you are looking for big-named places (for Malaysia map), you can use this web site. I would prefer the selection to have by state, instead of all, or select a region in a state. http://my.streetdb.com/ (Would it be using Google map better? I am having 2nd thought, though I got this website from Google.  )

It also has the best movie list. I intend to go through the list to check out the movies that I wanted to watch. :D

Scholarships-Links : International Scholarships & Fellowships

I wanted to blog about this site for quite sometimes. It was introduced by my dear friend. She plans to go to Europe or US to further her study. My plan? I don’t have a firm plan. I used to dream of studying in Japan. Alright, I was just dreaming of staying in Japan for a year or two, have a taste of being study abroad, or stay abroad for some times. I am thinking of taking this more "seriously", so I start to look for scholarship. Probably just by doing some observations, not taking any action. I am not that daring to make changes in life, despite I have been changing job for 4 times within 10 years. Starting from the Seed Hunter, then this scholarship listing page, I recall the very first idol I have when I was very young, Madame Curie (居裡夫人). Thanks to 人文與環境 subject. I am not sure because she is a widow continue the research that she and her husband were working on, or was awarded Nobel Prize (I just recently realized that she got 2 of the Nobel Prizes, both from diffe...
