The passing of a great man..

[Music: [tatoeba]kimi...ga...shinda...ra - D'espairsRay]
[Mood: blank .____. ]

The inventor of probably one of the greatest invention is no longer with us.

Momofuku Ando passed away at the age of 96 in Tokyo on Friday. He was the inventor of instant noodles, a snack that have been sold billions of serving worldwide since its launch.

In my opinion, his invention is almost as important as the invention of telephone by Alexander Graham Bell of the lightbulb by Thomas Edison. 'WHY?', you ask?

Let's see, Considering that the ones who'll read this entry are students [Mdm Badariah doesn't count, of course =P], imagine if he didn't create the instant noodle in the first place, can you imagine how we'll survive without it? All of us must at least once, turn to instant noodles [that Maggi for you, or what other brands that you prefer] whenever we're on tight budget. We're students, of course, and it's not uncommon for us to be short on money for some occasion. There's always other options, but usually the first thing that come to mind whenever our stomach starts grumbling [sp?] with be these dudes. And off to the cupboard in the kitchen we go~


[Hmm.. I think we usually short on money because we spend them on other things especially for entertainment, rather than for educational purpose. Or maybe that's just me]


Okay, then, enough rambling. I'm outta here, but not before posting a pic..






p/s I really don't know what possessed me to took that pic above... Oh well. And Mdm Badariah, we'll promise to post our pics soon. I keep forgetting about it.


This is Aina, off to sleep now to get ready for possibly 9 hours of torture... *cough* I mean, lecture on Monday.
