Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams

Carnegie Mellon Professor Randy Pausch (Oct. 23, 1960 - July 25, 2008) gave his last lecture at the university Sept. 18, 2007, before a packed McConomy Auditorium. In his moving presentation, "Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams," Pausch talked about his lessons learned and gave advice to students on how to achieve their own career and personal goals.

Here In My Home...

Hello everyone...

It's been a while, but the heart for home never changes. I hope we will be updating this blog more frequently now.

Thank you to those who patiently followed despite the silence here.

Merdeka has just passed us by and Raya is approaching in a few weeks.

It is hard not to miss home and the roadside 'lemangs' and 'rendang' that i love so much!

Do you have any Merdeka dreams to share with us? How about Raya thoughts.

Please write to us. We love hearing from you.

I hope you enjoy the video. I love it, even for the 1000th time...

fortnightly doodles: KOMAS Freedom Film Festival

Hello everyone!! How's it going?

It has been a really exciting two weeks for the dream team!

We attended the KOMAS film festival in London and hosted the London working group in the recent 2009 Northeast Malaysia Forum! Not only we had plenty of fun, we met some really inspiring individuals at both events and recorded malaysian dreams on video for the very 1st time!

The KOMAS freedom film festival 2009 presented a series of thought provoking documentaries with focus on social justice and human rights in Malaysia. For those who missed the event, not worry, the documentaries are now available for streaming on their website!

Do check them out and share them around :)

One of the documentaries featured a letter written by Darrell, a 10 year old boy from the UK, to Dr. Mahathir, calling the logging practices in Malaysia 'disgraceful'. True to his form, our dear Tun writes back with the full might of his scorn (and hilarious sarcasm). A copy of this letter and Tun's reply (page 1, page 2 & page 3!) are also available on this website.

What do you think? Can you see Darrell's point? Can you see Tun's? How would you go about producing change?

Till the next fortnight,

Watch this space for our dream videos! (we're posting them up soon!)
