Time, heart and behavior actually related to each other in our life.
Time to time you will realize how many people that you know and you will start being choosy in deciding who are suitable to be in your life. Even not all people like this but there will be people that enjoy being surrounded by different types of people.
Heart is like a remote control in your life. WHY??????
If you think this is the right person to be a friend, you will turn the button on and if not you will press off. Life is simple if we use our thinking rationally, wisely and high common sense.
Heart always discuss people's want and BEHAVIOR works as judges. Judges that decide who gonna be in your life.
In a simple word, in life you will meet or pass by a lot of different people that have different behavior, if you think you already find people that you are comfortable with and trust, don't easily let them go. Appreciate every single person that come in and out in your life.

Japanese Rice Ball is called "Onigiri" in japanese.  it is a Japanese comfort food made from rice formed into triangular or oval shapes and usually wrapped in nori (seaweed).  If you are new with Japanese cuisine, you might misunderstood that onigiri is a type of sushi but it is not.  One of the key difference between onigiri and sushi is that onigiris are made with plain steamed rice, while sushi are made of steamed rice seasoned with vinegar, salt, and sugar.

Onigiri are very popular in Japan and all different appetizing flavors of onigiri can be found in Japanese convenience stores.  At the time onigiri were first invented, refrigerators didn’t exist yet.  So the Japanese came up with a method to keep the rice fresh longer by filling it with salty or sour ingredient as natural preservatives. For example:

Japanese salty pickled plum

salted salmon

bonito flakes moisten with soy sauce

salty kombu seaweed

salty cod roe

Nowadays, onigiri fillings are more creative with:

Shrimp Tempura

Chicken Karaage

Tuna with mayonnaise

Egg with mayonnaise

Chicken fried

many other non traditional flavors.

*For IIUM student that want to try onigiri, you can buy it at D're shop. There are many type of filling and the price is affordable. The taste is so delicious and suit with Malaysian taste bud. However, it have a limited amount.
