Living the dream

Faith brought us together

2011-06-13T13:37:00.005+08:00

So Joon Aun left for more than a week.

Of course, everyone asked me about the ugly airport scene but thank you all for concerning, no worries, I'm doing fine =). In fact, we are doing great because we're always with each other. Well, this is the first souvenir I got from him, thanx babe! Love ya much!

Once written on the sands of Dubai =)

Intern jokes

2011-06-02T20:39:00.006+08:00

So I decided to write again after a month's break from my blog. Its getting a little uncomfortable and lonely here without Joon Aun's presence and the fact that we can't really text much at the mo, so, I had to do something. Its worse than I thought. =S

Speaking about my latest updates, Intern! hows this, hows that, hows everything? right, let me spill it out here. I arrived at the office bout 8.30am on the first day and I was a little surprised to see that it was still dark. Later, someone came to open the door, and the first question was "You didn't know our office open at 9 ah?"I smell sarcasm.

The moment I walked in, I smell trouble. Alright, fast forward a bit. Surprisingly, there are many many interns. Cheap labors, this signifies something. We sat in the meeting room because there were no other place for us. So we were briefed with job descriptions, technical aspects, the engineers are nice people, they teach a lot, and the list goes on...

Mr. trouble came so obvious to me when within the first three days, I can address the conflict and the politics going on in the that freaking small office. LOL. Even the poorest observer will be able to know whats happening exactly. Whatever is happening in there is two words, messy & conventional. And its funny to see them backstabbing each other, right in front of us hahahaha. None of our business though, I'm glad I'm just an intern.

When clock strikes 6pm, we leave. Sharp. But then Ms. sarcastic complained saying we left early this week. Oh boy. Firstly, you do not have a time reference. Secondly, everyone's watch could be 2-3 minutes different. So, i guess we left at 5.58pm, their time. Goodness, they want to calculate that 2 minutes.. Each minute is 5 cents, 2 minutes = 10 cents. C'mon, RM2 per month, give you. Bei lei Bei lei Bei lei! *chuckles(I can imagine Kenny and Yung Lin imitating Yip Seng's signature gesture)*

The funniest part is, the next day, they implement log book system for time in, time out, just because engineers leave 2 minutes early! LOL.

Well, I did make some friends there, and we all find it funny... always having good laughs. I'll be back for some serious reviews.

What would girls die for?

2011-04-21T01:51:00.004+08:00

Guys. Metaphorically, of course.

Of the many many pleasures in life - beauty, clothes, shoes, bags; Girls will also sacrifice anything for their guy and it always made me wonder why. Although I wonder, I'm just one of them. Well, at least the many girlfriends I know are like that =) Four or three words. The power of love or Love is blind? Or its neither. It is just our nature for being angelic and its okay, no matter what. I decided that it is just girls and emotions. Its automatic. However, it could be very subjective and this is just one side of the coin. And I wonder if guys really do appreciate it (well, if you do, then its awesome!!).

If we open the newspapers these days, there are so many cases of teenage girls running away with their so-called bf. Why so stupid? It is not worth while to just run away from school and follow somebody who they barely even know..Not this kinda sacrifice. I will probably give my sympathy to those who were cast black magic on, but not those who know men/guys through Facebook and get cheated. Hmmm...its like a trend these days. I don't know whats behind - family probs, stress etc. but its just not the way. I hope we can do something about it.

ps: The power of love lies with whoever who cares less.

Ronald McDonald Live!

2011-04-12T08:35:00.002+08:00

Came across this poster last night. Ronald McDonald Live in Concert 6pm today in McD Batu Pahat and we saw some staff preparing for the big day. hahaha. I wonder what songs he'll be singing =) Pa dap pap pap pa.. I'm lovin' it!

Live! Live! Live!

Poser Ronald

**And for a change, an instrumental on my blog =) Hope you guys like it.

*CheeRs*

Blame it on the work stress

2011-03-30T18:05:00.010+08:00

When it comes to planning, I think one of the best professionals will be an actuary. They give you the best premium rates, risks and bla bla bla.. But when it comes to life planning, probably a lil' too dreamy. hahaha.. Before this, Zi came up with a 5 year plan for Shu Yi - getting a girlfriend to marriage. Today, unexpectedly, she gave me a 2 year plan instead =.=" haha Zi's hinting something, girls! hahaha Sorry Zi! =P Just joking.

We were talking about my internship choices and she was asking me questions after questions before resorting to this (below).

天真的朋友 ;)

Yikes, I wonder what did EY do to my friend, that she's dreaming on broad day light. Blame it on the work stress.. hehe. Oie kerja la, chatting! =) I liked your idea though, wait till I become the boss! =P

My breakie and lunch today cost me rm4.80 I think, just for the McD coffee and I had a whole lot of filling stuff to eat. But the coffee made me so dizzy. yikes. Well, Joo knew I wouldn't even wake up at 8am just to have breakfast, especially on a Wednesday morning. The day that I embrace the opportunity to have my beauty sleep. So, she packed for me instead. yeay!! Thanx Joo!

stuck with TOPSIS & McD breakie

Because I've been stuffing myself with food this week [blame it on the work stress..hehe], I'll have a 3-5 days detox plan after my test on Friday. I definitely need that!

ps: There's always a solution to everything. With positive thoughts, the day will be better. =)

A chapter in life

2011-03-05T17:31:00.009+08:00

Hanging out in MBS and Petaling Street today brought on some nostalgic moments. Although it was just about a year and a half in the school, so many memories were created. Walking in the school, I can just visualize the days when were studying there. Hmmm...Miss all of you people!! It is a hub where my network of friends expanded so much and also the place where I met the love of my life =). We’ve grown, so much, and like us, the school is still undergoing some tremendous change. They tore down YC, took up space of the field and those huge, old shady trees were no longer there, to build a multi-purpose hall.

One of the most memorable parts of the school among the boys will be the stories about their high school days – where they bully their teachers, making fun of each other and all sorts of silly acts. It has always been a topic and no matter how many times it’s been told, until today, everyone burst into laughter.

I spent some time browsing through pictures, folders after folders and I just giggled to myself. The pictures and us at present, are so different. hahahaha.

Making it happen!

2011-02-28T23:15:00.017+08:00

I admire Chung Seng's courageous move to go on a vacation by himself without even worrying about anything else. All he did was, wake up one morning, headed to KL Sentral to get his tickets to Hatyai. Oh by the way, he didn't even know where to go in Hatyai! Later, he decided to head to Koh Lipe, and you can get to know more about it here! Its awesome! I've always dream of going on such a random journey, but haven't got the opportunity to do so. I'll being living my dream, somehow. Very soon! =)

Speaking about CS's adventure, reminds me of Aunty Winnie's journey to England in her yesteryears. One birthday, she received a ticket to go on board a ship, and her destination was England. It was a challenge in fact, by her colleagues - they chipped in for the ticket. She took on the challenge, board the ship without much possessions and went off just like that. Her voyage to England has earned her so much experience which includes settling down with a beautiful family.

In the recent years, she came back and we had family gatherings. That was the first time, we kids, were introduced to this brave aunt of ours. It is fascinating, she chose the path less taken and it turned out to be a wonderful journey.

ps: life could be colorful, its up to us. =)

A new hobby

2011-02-26T09:31:00.003+08:00

The first thing in mind was to wake up in comfortable arms on such a beautiful Saturday morning. I wish he was just right beside me =) I have been procrastinating darn a lot and my homework has been piling up bit by bit. I know I have to start somehow, but thinking of the documents that I have to compile, it is a tedious job.

Anyway, I been thinking of a new hobby lately, but have yet to find a suitable one. If you have any suggestions, drop me one =)

Valentines Day

2011-02-14T19:55:00.005+08:00

Happy Valentines Day!!...May all enjoy this auspicious day =)

Everyday's a V-day, some say. To some, it sounds unromantic. To others, it may be acceptable. To florists and restaurateurs it is absolutely a bad thing. hahaha.

Its been quite some time since I've scribbled here. So here's a lil' something.

It is 2011 now, but I've not post my 2010 wrap-up. I'll try, when my mood comes. I kept reminiscing December since the start of the year and hence the title of my song. Oh Darn! Am I moving backwards? But December was one of my best months last year. If I could, I would have stayed in the memory.

Coming back to reality. Lets see whats coming.

2 months to completion of FYP. Relief.

3 months to leaving Uni. Yeay!

3 1/2 months to going through a new test : The distance. Hmm..

At this point, I find life to be weird. haha.. However colorful it was back then, I don't know whats lying ahead of me. It seems blank even if I have a plan. Ahh, my wishful thinking.

I just wish that everything goes smoothly this year.

Long awaited 2011.

2011-01-06T22:30:00.004+08:00

I welcomed the new year with consecutive days of tears; tears of joy, tears of sorrow, I don't know and I already have a new nickname, "Angree". Sounds horrible but funny.

Phew...2011, the long awaited year. =)

It is finally here but it doesn't seem like what its supposed to be anymore. I'm beginning to live in contradiction or denial, whatever it is...On one hand, I'm excited because I'm graduating this year, while on the other hand, finishing school means I have to live with his absence for sometime. Then, it confuses my mind. haha. It is so weird. Thinking of it weakens me so I think I have to start injecting positive thoughts in me everyday. Aye, my mind is always ahead of myself and it annoys me at times.

I only have A new year resolution this year but I'll cancel it because it is useless for me and I figured that it isn't a must to have new year resolutions, so long as I stick to achieving my goals. I do have many wishes though. =)

2011 will be the beginning of a new chapter in life. How I'll miss uni life, I'm not very sure about it. What God has in store for me, I'll find out soon. I hope His riddles aren't too tough. What I'm sure of is that I'll embark on a new journey. I'll gear up for new challenges ahead. =)

Wishing for a smooth sailing 2011!

*CheeRs*

ps: I hope you will gear up too!

Billion-haire now

2010-12-03T01:04:00.003+08:00

I guess we've all had our billionaire dreams once in awhile till today. Questions like "What am I gonna do if I have a billion dollars? How am I to spend it, so on and so forth.." would appear in our minds.. 'I wanna be a billionaire, so freaking bad...buy all of the things I never had...' sounds so familiar yea..

I've heard of so many dreams - from ships to private jets to living in the sky and planting huge expensive trees, all the way till owning the moon. The sky's the limit.hehe. We've always wondered, well at least, I've always wondered how these wealthy people spend their money. I really don't know. Maybe, maybe, one day when I'm there, I'll know. ;)

As for me, besides having a comfortable life, I would love to help the poor and the orphans/old folks. Not by donations but providing these poor kids with good education. On top of that, to provide better shelter for families who are still living in shacks..and their children will be able to grow up in a proper environment. For the orphans/old folks, there's so much we could do including showering them with love and care. With billions and billions of dollars, I'm sure they can have proper meals (Not hinting that the homes are abusing the orphans/old folks, its just part of my dreams). =)

My addiction :: gLee

2010-11-24T16:22:00.008+08:00

Never knew that Glee is nice...It didn't came across my mind to even watch Glee until somebody gave me the whole season one. And guess what, totally got me into it. I really admire their remarkable voices especially when it blend together and also the ornaments/remix they include in the song arrangements. Its awesome =) Made the songs so much more interesting than the original.

Well, if you're gonna compare Glee with High School Musical, true enough there may be no Vanessa Hudgens in Glee but so what? The songs they perform are good and when they hit the first few beats, it gives you goosebumps, you'll know they sang it well. =) Besides, Cory Monteith is so Cute! haha.

Part of Glee cast in People's Choice Award

Well, here are some Glee performance in Season 1.

Glee boys doing a medley of Bon Jovi's Its My Life and Usher's Confessions

Glee Season 1 Finale with Journey Medley

featuring songs :: Faithfully, Anyway you want & Don't Stop Believing

Thats all... But I think I'm getting addicted to it. Fox made it so well! Had our high school choir were similar to glee, it will be much more interesting, rather than mundane routine. =) We could have made it in the nationals every year! haha.

*CheeRs*

Supper @ La Bodega

2010-11-15T00:53:00.011+08:00

If you haven't seen Aravindh for a long time and wondering if he is enjoying in the kitchen, I would say, he is pretty successful and most importantly he loves his job.

A pint of Hoegarden with the tiny illy expresso

Went to La Bodega last week and managed to indulge our taste buds in his Alfredo Linguini [no pictures taken]. It was delicious especially when we have extra ham in it and extra fries in our French fries basket.. All thanx to Aravindh. =) Chee Wan loved the pasta so much while Jeffrey wants to learn it.hahaha..I'm not a big fan of pasta due to the excessive cheese in it, but that was fine. The amount of cheese was just right. Oh before I forget, its La Bodega Pavilion.

Ps: Anyway, I managed to escape Hoegarden that night. =)

English an essential tool

2010-11-03T22:25:00.008+08:00

Last weekend I attended a Finishing School Program organized by the counselling department. On first thought, the program sounds funny. What could possibly be conveyed in the program? Puzzled and reluctant, we still attended it.

So what we learnt was ... English. The objective was English. Having the courage to speak in English, think in English and the whole 2 days was about English. The best part? we were exposed to the post studies environment - interviews, writing resumes and cover letters etc.

Its fine, I think the program is educational and I appreciate the fact that the university is aware of this issue. But exposing final year students to english now? Gosh, its a little too late. We don't master English overnight and given 6 months to brush up? Possible, if its put into practice every single day, and I think it'll only be good enough for communicating plus a good, simple writing.

They could have done better, if they want their students to master English. We could learn better if certain systems in the varsity is implemented with English and English only. A two day course like that is not sufficient, people will forget! Let alone when being forced. Learning language has got to be on constant basis.

Ps: It applies to all language and its sad to say that we, Malaysian students are still behind time.

Crisp breeze

2010-10-07T19:05:00.010+08:00

Feeling the cold wind outside chills my spine and dampens my body but it never fail to activate my mind. And today, I'd like to share a lot of things. It could be a very random, long post. So, please, be patient with me.

I'm back on my own legs - living without a car at the moment. Its good that I can actually compensate all my missed work outs but it is a terrible thing that my freedom is restricted. No more lone-ranger outing at McDs whenever I want to =( Why isn't there a Starbucks in Uni? or a McD kiosk? or Subway Sandwiches? or....something that can kill my boredom and distract myself from being in my own world.

The most annoying. People begin to get addicted with Fb while I'm beginning to dislike it. I think its because of the recent events that I find it annoying. I think the objectives of Fb has been achieved beyond that it is starting to give all the negative effects. If guys like browsing pictures of pretty/sexy ladies and girls like posting pictures to attract attention, well, maybe it is still acceptable. But cheating behind your other half's back by sending sweet mails/messages through fb to other people? C'mon...Ever thought of how your other half will feel if he/she reads it?..Think about it. *I feel for you to those who been through that. Stay strong!*

Updates. Another 3 weeks to a 3 week study break! But before all the fun, I'll first have to go through many restless nights. I must say that juggling between time, studies & activities as well as my own life hasn't been easy, but the one thing I'm amazed is that I always go through it well. I hope I could make it too this time. I should be a juggler!hehe. With all the projects, assignments, presentations - all due soon, I'm most worried with my FYP 1 presentation next week. Having Dr. Kok as my panel is so alarming. Famous for asking lots of questions, I'm afraid I'll be standing there dumbfounded! while having Dr. Goh as my supervisor, I'd say, thumbs up! haha. By the way, they're both best friends. ;)

Dean list. finally..The one thing that I'm waiting for to achieve again. I'm back on the list last semester. Am contented =) and I'm so lucky to get a hamper today. ^^ Thanx to mum, dad and joon aun and of course, myself for the never-ending support. Pictures up soon.

I've got more to say, unfortunately, I've got to go now. Tedious maze set up tonight! I'll write again soon!

My best friend just wouldn't leave me alone

2010-09-22T22:49:00.005+08:00

Glad that I'm not the only abnormal one, but ain't proud of myself too. I found out that some people face the same problem too.

One of my best friend is actually my sleeping problem. Usually it'll visit me a week before holiday ends. Thats the time when I hardly sleep at night, I begin to get nervous and..even if I'm asleep, subconsciously I'm awake at times. Oh when I'm back in uni, I won't be able to sleep well too.. It'll prolong for a few days to a week until I had enough of it.

3 1/2 years, nothing's changed except this time, instead of a week, I didn't sleep well 2 nights before I had to come back.. Should I say its an improvement? haha.. but i find it a little too late, because, its my second last term already.

Maybe, its all in the mind. hahaha

I'm cute, are you?

2010-09-21T20:55:00.005+08:00

If you're having a bad day and no one's there to cheer you up, fret not..because Google can!

Just type "Who's the cutest?" on Google's search engine
Click I'm Feeling Lucky
And...be surprised with what it says alright!

*CheeRs*

ps: Oh Of course I don't use this..hehehe

August: A transformation

2010-08-30T02:05:00.003+08:00

You'd probably think I had knocked my head on the wall with this sudden decision but I can assure you, everything is going well. I woke up one fine day and realized that I have improvements to make. But of course it didn't just came to me in a night. Major or minor, I don't really care because it includes everything.

I'm coming by very well, but I have yet to achieve my target. Maybe some would have notice the change, some not...I'm still working it out bit by bit because it ain't an easy task. But what I need is improvements. Look out for what will come in September.

Oh by the way, Happy Independence Day, Malaysia.

Shoerizon

2010-08-20T00:33:00.002+08:00

My room's bit romantic tonight, I wonder why. The moment I opened the door, the room is so dark. So rare, so weird. Usually the lights are on even when the sun is high up in the sky.

Anyway, you must be wondering what is shoerizon. Its Shoe + Horizon = Shoerizon. LOL. I've been thinking.. there are so many trendy, nice heels that I'll miss out next time because many are made of snake skin. And just the word snake...is enough to keep me few feet away. Hence, my smaller shoerizon Ughh..

xxxx

I love the blue velvet heels I saw on a blog few weeks back.But 15cm high...how to walk?!

Contented

2010-08-17T20:52:00.003+08:00

If airplanes could be shooting stars, I'll wish for the clock to stop ticking just for one day and let me make full use of every second. See, the good times is just momentary, and before I could get hold of the night, it approaches to an end. Whatever it is, its a memory, a quality one and I'll appreciate it.

xoxo

Ps: Lets just shop the next time! =)

I've been bumming all day instead of doing my research. Very restless. Feel the creeps that chill my spine.. My privacy's been invaded. darn! Anyway, I kinda like this '92 funky diva! Like the first line lyrics though..haha

I wear tight clothing, high heeled shoes...It doesn't mean that I'm a prostitute, no ,no!'

Something oh so sweet

2010-07-27T23:25:00.006+08:00

Serena, this post is dedicated to you...

I'm so glad to know that you've arrived in Finland safely and your secret plan was such a success. The sweetest thing is both you and Lauri could finally meet up again since May last year. All that you guys had went through. Wish ya all the best, sista! We'll miss you back here and.. see ya in a year!

Ps: Don't be naughty! =P

A Garden View Deluxe

2010-07-26T12:10:00.004+08:00

The title sounds nice, not the content.

All my 3 years, I've never faced any problems with my roomies. I dare say it was heaven living with Joo, Tai, Ye-Ne and Rachel. At least we all have the basic manners - switching off the main lights when others are sleeping, keeping our voices down, putting our phones into silent mode etc etc.. Hence, we lived very peacefully.

Little would I expect to meet a whole new bunch of roomies on a crucial semester and really, they're hmm...inconsiderate. It is a total opposite. Maybe because they're younger? Thats a lame excuse, I tell you. The beginning of the semester is the best time to have great sleep, I usually hit the bed by midnight but haha I guess not this time. Two weeks into the semester and I've never slept well yet. Luckily I have quite a flexible timetable, I could slee.p more in the day but thats just not my best way out.

xxx

Plus, the horrifying room location. The presence of slimy creatures off and on - outside, in the toilet..its freaking me out. Having impolite services from the hostel officers..I just hate them. Being sarcastic when you're just a hostel staff.. Hey, you people should think twice.

Ps: I think I'll fail my not-going-back-every-other-weekend plan. I'm depressed.

Miscellaneous Beijing

2010-07-12T00:20:00.006+08:00

The Funny one

The most amusing thing throughout the trip was China's departure card. We had been laughing about it for the whole week and guess what, it never fail to entertain us. =) Spot the joke alright!

It says ALIENS which refers to us - foreigners.. I think those departure cards are expired ones, maybe they've rectified the mistake. hehe. Anyway, just laugh! =)

Aliens in China?..R2-D2 too? haha

The Odd one

The oddest were the two lavatory signs in the plane. Something is really wrong with its indication. I don't understand why are there so many lavatory signs when the toilet is not even there, its on the other side. Well, if you say it is convenient for passengers to see, acceptable, but both indications always contradict. One would be green, and the other red and they never show the same color. hahaa.. Well, Serena and I kept observing the signs (too bored..), in the end, we decided that...its spoiled. Alright, this is lame.

There's another one of the left isle

The friendly one

You see a lot of people riding bicycles on the streets of Beijing and its a good thing. They even have bicycle lanes - really wide ones (not like the narrow motorcycle lane in Malaysia) and they face traffic jams too when it comes to peak hours. This environmental friendly habit is implemented in the delivery system too - Domino's pizza delivery. Get your delivery from the bicycle boy, instead of Honk Honk, you hear Rrrringg Ringggg at your doorstep. How's that? hehe.

Want a part time job?

Well, I guess I'm done with my Beijing posts..Till then. =)

Besides work..

2010-07-08T04:06:00.011+08:00

Honestly, we didn't get to loiter much or go for sightseeings..So don't ask me about Forbidden City or Great Wall and all the other famous tourist spots. However, I managed to see a wee bit of the Olympics City and lucky for me, its just a stone's throw away from the Hotel. About 5 minutes walk, minus the crazy road-crossing scenarios.

I'm glad that I get to see the Bird's Nest like I've expected but unfortunately, I didn't get a glimpse of the night scene as well. It seems the stadium is lighted in red in the night. But its alright, there's always a next time. =) To me, it is an amazing creation - the pillars, steel bars and so forth. It looks messy at close shot, but I can't imagine how its being built. Its just awesome. I like the fact that the area is not filled with stadiums after stadiums, instead it is beautify by a lot of greens and flowers of different colours. I feel very relaxed the moment I stepped into the Olympics Garden. =) Oh by the way, the Swimming Cube is awesome too. No pictures of it though.

Sitting in the middle of the Zebra crossing?

Looks like its Photoshop-ed but trust me, its not.

Besides working, what we do most is EAT! Like I've mention before, breakfast was scrumptious - imagine 7 days of delicious international buffet breakfast, while dinner was divine. Overall, their food was good but very oily. We had 4 times of Peking Duck (yes, it sounds crazy, I know..but mm..I missed it very much) and a lot of spicy food. We had a lot of 'Ma Lat' dishes and I mean a lot. It is indeed spicy and when the spiciness reaches a maximum level, your tongue just gives up and goes numb..hahaha That was the best ever!

I miss this. Really. 'Ma Lat Kang Wo'

The amount of chili in the end..its crazy.

Peking Duck Servings..Its finger lickin' good.

Bei Ping Lou, our favourite restaurant. =)

I guess thats all for now...All i remember was the lack of sleep, partly thanx to the weather. Since it is Summer, it brightens up at 4am, so, Serena and I often wake up thinking we're late but it was just 5 something. :S However, it was usually cooling throughout, with minimal sweat.

An inspiring trip

2010-06-29T15:01:00.005+08:00

This is definitely one of my 2010 highlights. It is my second trip to Beijing but this is more than visiting.

I am very fortunate to have the opportunity to work in Beijing for a week. Regardless of what my job scope was, I've learned a lot, feel inspired and definitely it was an eye opener.

I find it difficult to explain what my job scope was besides saying "err..write for the show daily" because most of us aren't from the media industry, therefore, many don't get what I say. It's alright. Since a picture speaks a thousand words, there you go(the pic below)..It consists of 8 pages circulated to visitors and delegates FOC for 3 days which features the activities, brief introduction of various company products and the feedback from people there.

ahh..short of 1 edition. Day 3.

Half day Korean. I don't know how it happened.

We were provided with a conference room,a laptop each..oh we also have a water dispenser and coffee machine and I think everyone was stressed out too because the machine was also working very hard alongside us. haha. George would sing " I need stories..i need storiess...",and in the end, he has got more than enough to fit in the show daily. Phew~~ Anyway, it was tough, because we didn't really have much time to think but it was a worth while experience.

Breakfast was scrumptious, dinner was divine but lunch was all packed food with dumplings and fried rice everyday. But then again, we didn't really have time for lunch alright.. We were racing with time, trying to finish everything by 6pm. Somehow or rather, we were fortunate enough to be provided with McD on the last day.. for lunch.. 2 burgers with french fries. Thanx to Stephanie, maybe. Oh by the way, its not pork. McD only serves pork in their breakfast set.

McD Chi-chi-chi-china.

Riding ma' horse..

Finally, everything's done. =)

I don't know what else to say except, a big thank you to Uncle Philip and Serena, for the opportunity and guidance all along *hugs*. I like the fact that it was an O&G event, I hope it helps especially on my resume. ;)

No more 'agendas', please.

2010-06-21T00:04:00.005+08:00

Last semester was very much unexpected with all kinds of Agendas.

The term kicked off very badly, with myself being lost in my own world most of the time and barely paying attention to my lecturers. Oh, I still looked at them when they were teaching while my mind wandered elsewhere. =P Sorry teachers, I can’t help it. However, it ended pretty well when I least expected it.

…Probably I did the right thing. =) Thank God.

Anyway, the most exciting part would be the economics project – business for 2 days. My group sold Lok Lok and we managed to make some profit out of it too since no one else was selling it. Having to see people eat and eat and eat and eat…while money flows in. hehehe. It was a good experience. I bet everyone had a good time, though it was very hot. Well, I think I spent quite a lot in the stall next to mine too. They were selling some Sarawak dessert. Ish ish ish, lucky you people!!

Street Steamboat menu

What a name for a company to sell lok lok

Second best would of course be the Robot project. It was one of the projects that every other guy would want to take charge of – hold on to the robot and play with it. Yes, it was a success and an experience for those who are not Robocon members. We had a competition at the end of the day, it was quite exciting and funny, seeing all kinds of shapes of robot arms on the go. Well, I realized I'm not very into it after all, I'm just not good in programming but its a learning process. Even the exam question was about this robot! No chance of escaping it. haha.

Robot by Cytron technologies

Modified into Bumblebee!

As usual there were assignments and project datelines to rush for…Which we definitely, managed to hand in, in time. When there’s a will, there’s a way. Be optimistic!

Alright, enough of all the crap.

I’m excited actually. Looking forward to the following semester, not because of the new library… but because I’m A FINAL YEAR STUDENT, finally!! And the fact that I’m one step closer to my goal Hahaha. There’s just 2 more term to endure, I hope everything goes well , nothing bad pops up and please people, pray for me! =) Bless me!

Kiwi rules!

Happy Mummy Day!!

2010-05-07T11:48:00.004+08:00

Wishing all the mums a Happy Mother's Day in advance =)

Your everlasting love and care will always be appreciated by the young ones.

I think my mum is a little bit more lucky that daddy(Oops..its our fault isn't it haha). Seems like every mother's day we'll be in somewhere. Remember last year we spent a night in Traders' Hotel and this year..oh yeah, we will be going to Penang. The food paradise. =) And as for me, I'll be leaving behind my electronic gadgets this time..except my phone of course! hah..

Oh well, thats all for now..I'll be catching up with my abandoned posts very soon. So, just stay tuned.

*CheeRs*

Ps: if you couldn't celebrate mother's day with your mum this year, remember to give her a call. She'll love it. =)

I cannot stay put in this place for more than 3 weeks, I'll miss home terribly and thats what I'm feeling the whole week. I know why Cyn wants to go home some much. I feel you today. No worries, you'll be home soon for good.

**How I wish the April fool prank I played wasn't a prank and I really could drop by there.

2010-03-15T18:32:00.010+08:00

I have 5 days to decide...either

Communication

Robotics & Automation

I'm not only considering about my interest but also the market demands, practicality, some pros & cons and a lil' gender discriminations in certain fields [yeah, it does happen in the engineering world, thats the truth]. Hmm, maybe I don't need to think much about it, because in the end of the day both fields will end up in the production/designing sector. Somehow or rather I'm torn between 2..hmm

If you have some opinions, no hesitations please, do enlighten me =)

Manukan Island

2010-02-06T14:21:00.007+08:00

Manukan Island is one of the famous 5 islands in KK. Some people say this island is the best among them all - its beautiful and its clean. I have not been to the other 4, though, but if you're searching for lush green sceneries and sandy white beaches, this is it. Crystal clear water? hmm...maybe. Its a good place for relaxation too. This place belongs to Sutera Sanctuary Lodges, you'll have to pay RM3 for the entrance. Here, they also have quite a number of chalets but the charges is a little on the high side. Expected, as usual. The journey to Manukan Island takes about 15 to 20 minutes from Jesselton Point(KK's jetty) and its about RM16 per person plus some other charges.

bro and sis-in-law

Entrance to the island

I went there for a day's trip - a few hours actually as the weather does not permit me to stay there for long. haha. Anyway, its good enough to have actually stepped on the soft sands and feel the sea breeze. We had a pricey lunch for which we totally have got no other choices but at least the food was not too bad. Still, if there's a next time, I suggest to pack sandwiches and go there for a picnic.

Coupled Ice Lemon Tea

Its Fried Rice with big prawns

Mamak Mee...no other choice of food..

Single storey chalet

Double storey chalet

Manukan Jetty

There are various water sport activities such as banana boat and the like. What attracted me most was a machine-liked thing like a mini submarine which enables you to see the underwater creatures instead of snorkeling. It is invented by the locals themselves and the rent is about RM280 per person. Its a waste I did not snap a picture of it. Anyway, after lunch, we walked around awhile and went for a short swim. There were signs saying its "jellyfish season" but lucky for us we did not encounter any. Then the dark clouds came...and soon enough it began to rain.. So we head to the main area and waited for the boat...and there goes my visit in Manukan Island.

Dark clouds coming...

Rough boat ride...'syoking' though. hehe

It was still drizzling when we were heading back to KK town. The huge waves caused the rough boat ride, but it was exciting and fun! hehe. ;) So there goes, Manukan Island, part of my KK trip. I'm not sure about the other 4 islands but would love to go island hopping there someday and one of it is known as Mamutik island.

**The last post will be about KK itself.

O' Hail Redang.

2010-02-06T12:30:00.007+08:00

I'm kinda bored now, just killing my time..so this is a lil' random but it'll trigger some memories to some of you. hehe.

Shu yi was telling me bout his sunburn marks after his site visit. He was complaining the pain and all while I was laughing at him.. Then I showed him a sunburn picture....yea back to Redang trip where Ernest and Yip Seng had quite terrible sunburn. I wonder why we didn't take the picture of both of them, or, its missing somewhere. Anyway, so this is it...

almost ripe tomato..haha

Yip seng says get more suntan..!! hahaha.. Sorry Yip Seng. I suddenly thought of this. Its just, you're so funny, always coming up with amusing words. No offence! =)

I came across this picture yesterday while I was searching for more sunburn pictures. I like this one here, one of the best picture we took during that trip. Everyone looked so good and it was a great trip after all. I haven't seen some of them for ages though..

Nice...

Oh and this interesting picture here, is Jaseline's t-shirt.

Where are you, Jaseline?haha

It's been a long time since I've seen some of them but we still keep in touch. For Jaseline, she's totally MIA-ed...I haven't heard about her, hmm I guess probably she's busy with her law stuff and clubbing maybe? =P

Drifted away

2010-02-01T21:45:00.009+08:00

The awful drink

Today is FT day and the last time I got to enjoy this holiday was 3 years back. I remembered very well that I spent half a day in Telecom museum browsing through whatever they have in the archive. Pretty interesting. If you have the time, probably just drop by yeah. Looking at the development of our communication system from time to time could interest you a little.

So, January was a roller coaster ride for me.

It seems that the new year kicked start unexpectedly terrible but I'm glad at the same time. I know, I know its very contradicting and hey guess what, I have not decided on my resolutions yet. Maybe I still want to continue enjoying the bits and pieces of 2009. How sad.

I admit I got so drifted away during the January weekends and I also stirred up some anger and discomfort in my loved ones...Guess they were so worried. The guilt has been with me though and all the while I've been trying a little too hard to keep my mind from being too preoccupied, but of course, to no avail.

Well, I'm glad January's gone and things have eased a little, I think.

I'll remember the days because I wouldn't want to go through it again and there's no one to blame.

Apologies to the people I love and who loves me.

Mourn for the Ruler

2010-01-27T19:06:00.004+08:00

Am I being conservative, open-minded, modernized, weird or ms. nice citizen[just kidding]?

I think mourning for the ruler isn't a big deal, to me its a form of respect. Well, I don't go all out and put on the black band, but I wear dark-coloured clothes and like Darurat has it in yesteryears, I don't walk out of the university grounds during mourning hours. Just in case. :)

Mourning for the Sultan of Johor who has just passed away last week has been an issue. In fact, its the hottest issue in the university this week. On Monday morning, the university came out with a memo urging all staff and students to mourn for the ruler of the state. On Tuesday morning, they enforced the rule and the guards were checking thoroughly - car after car that passed through the gate. They gave warnings to those who did not abide by the rule.

Some people argued with the guards because according to the newspapers, it is NOT compulsory to mourn and there will not be any fines or summons. Obviously, its no use complaining to the guards because they just carry out their duties upon receiving orders.

I don't get the flow. Seriously, I don't. I don't get why is it a fuss among the Chinese community. Its just a black band, it has got nothing to do with religion, you're not really mourning, its just a form of respect to the dead and I guess there's no pantang larangs. Or am I missing something here?

Although we're not Johorians, we should probably just follow the rule because we've been living here for 3 years, though not wholly but since we're here, might as well abide by the rules[which I usually don't] to avoid getting into trouble yourself. Anyway, there's only 3 more days to go.. Why do you want to make a fuss with the dead person?

Another alternative, don't leave/enter the university grounds from 7am to 7pm. You'll be safer that way. hahaha..Or to save your butts, just wear it when you pass through the gate and take it off after that.

The best part is, all these complains are coming from Johorians themselves and people who comes from states which have Sultan. ;)

I miss...

2010-01-23T18:15:00.008+08:00

Guess what...over the weeks

I miss having Chow Kit Road Pan Mee...

I miss having roadside Dim Sum at night...

I miss Klang/Pudu Bak Kut Teh

I miss having Section 17 Banana Leaf Rice...

I miss McD

I miss having Zinger...

Financial woes

2010-01-20T00:15:00.005+08:00

Just yesterday, I took some time off for myself to reflect what I've been doing lately. To be honest, it wasn't the usual me. After 2 Saturdays of partying, yea no doubt it was fun, but I couldn't get away from my troubles so easily. Unfortunately, I still have to face the reality. Yesterday was D day. I sat on the concrete outside my room, plugged in my MP3 player and just relax. Feel the breeze and stare at the sky. For that period of time, I was totally in my own world. Believe it or not, I sat there watching the clear sky turned into orangy horizon till it became all dark.

Images from past went through my mind, one by one. It appeared like mini TV screens and all those were quite recent ones, probably dated back till december 2009. I paused at one of the image - two weeks ago at my hairdresser's. Reflected, and the topic was about financial woes in a relationship.

She shared her experience with us which I assume its about 20 years back. She said all was good with her husband, lovey dovey and all sorts until she gave birth to her first child. Problem begins, they argued everyday. The cause of it? Money - milk powder, diapers and the like.

Its common, but at the same time, it struck me.

Its something which shouldn't happen. You didn't sign the papers to argue over financial status. You didn't sign the papers to argue everyday over small matters. Instead, it should be worked out properly by the couple way before the kid is born.

Financial woes, if not properly managed, is definitely a problem between couples, whether its new or established. As a result of the current financial crisis, couples are finding themselves between a rock and a hard place in countless instances. Many are also finding themselves with the added stress of unhappy relationship. Their financial woes push them toward separation, however, their financial difficulties prevent them, in their mind from calling it quits.

This is what American couples are facing - relationships fall out due to the increasing financial difficulties. (as of 2008)

Here are some tips which can help stop fighting over finance and enjoy a more rewarding and stress-free relationship (provided by associated content):-

Understand that money is not the only issue. Financial fracases usually involve more complex and deeper issues than money. Security, control, and power are all underlying themes when it comes to fights over finances. When money is tight, security is a very real issue, and can lead to irritations and complaints. Control and power are closely related. Ideas of who should make the decisions, or one partner constantly making purchases without consulting with the other lead to struggles over control and turn money into the currency of familial power.

Talk about financial issues. Just as any other aspect of a relationship requires communication, money matters need talking about. It is important to air your fears and hopes, as well as articulate your strengths and weaknesses with money. You should also listen to your partner and try to understand where he or she is coming from. Talk about the underlying issues that increase your financial struggles, and try to figure out, together, how to overcome these struggles. These communications should be calm in nature, and you should do as much listening as talking.

Create some rules. Rules establish order and often provide comfort, whether we like to admit it or not. When you set rules for spending, however, you should understand that each party will have to give in some, and that compromise is necessary.

Set common goals. Just having rules is not enough. You can increase your financial harmony by working toward common money dreams. Working together to reach goals can help you to feel more connected, and more like partners. The goals should be short term, medium term, and long term. Short-term goals like saving a little each month for a movie night or dining out give immediate rewards and are encouraging. Medium-range goals like saving up for family vacation, a new car, or a home down payment keep you focused on a reward and brings you together with mutual sacrifice. Long-term goals include things like retirement savings and making plans for when the kids are out of the house. This provides something for you to look forward to as a couple as long as you are together. **Applies to established relationship.

Couples, on the whole, shouldn't feel tied to their relationship because of their financial circumstances. Their emotional wellbeing doesn't have to plummet in line with the stock market. Well, I hope this little tip here helps whoever who's going through these problems. Good luck!

ps: I wonder what happens to leading a simple life...Wonder if its erased from your dictionary ;)

A cowardly act

2010-01-16T08:13:00.007+08:00

I received a text from a friend yesterday and it goes something like this:-

"Suan...I'm kinda messed up currently, almost hook up with a girl.. but when she's ready, I feel like I'm not good enough for her. Am I very bad?"

Reading it blew my top and I chided him immediately. Due to current emotional status, its a real bad time to tell me things like this - I'll just spank the person if I could. First of all, yes, its very bad and cruel.

Okay, so this is just another typical scenario thats happening everywhere. Well, it all started off with a guy liking a girl but afraid that she doesn't fancy him the same way. To speed up a little, courtship begins and after awhile the girl fell right through it. While she's waiting for the guy to pop the question, the guy suddenly backs off. SOME guys just enjoy doing this, while SOME probably are afraid of committing in a relationship. Yes, I used the word SOME simply because I know not all guys are the same, and there's no need for me to humiliate the male population.

Sheer nonsense!!

It is not up to you to say/judge whether you are good enough for her or deserve her instead it is a decision by both souls. Maybe you're trying to be macho, wants to make the best decision but mind you, its just a cowardly act. Plus, you'll leave her in misery. Now, tell me how gentleman would it be to create such knotty situation?

**As a matter of fact, I know there are girls who leave guys in misery just like the above situation, but just so you know I don't want to mention it in there because it'll spoil part of my purpose..to promote NeYo's album here as well. hehe.

Listen to

Year of the gentleman

Be a gentleman and do respect women :)

I realized I'm just a thing to some people.

I'm not an icon, which you can use for the econs project;

I'm not here for you to create some stories and laugh about;

I'm not here for you to spread rumours;

and

I'm not a thing you can come to and go whenever you favour.

I don't voice out, doesn't mean I don't mind, doesn't mean I'm not hurt.

Respect me, guys.

Narrow escape

2010-01-03T17:37:00.002+08:00

Just like the dramas minus the accident.

Thank God the road's not wet and I'm still alive.

The beautiful town of Kudat

2009-12-28T23:59:00.010+08:00

With miles and miles of white sandy beaches, clear azure waters, hilltops and valleys lies the town of Kudat. Its main attraction nearby is the Tip of Borneo whereby the Sulu Sea and South China Sea converges. However beautiful this place is, people are not encouraged to swim in this area due to the undercurrent I suppose. So, we can only enjoy the breathtaking scenery..

The crystal clear water

Map embossed in bronze

The tip of Borneo is actually the 'ear' of the East Malaysia map/dog's ear they call it and geographically, its just rocks. Like the one shown below.

Tip of Borneo

The Jiens

I stayed in Kudat Golf and Marina resort and the only entertainment or things you can do there is golfing, swimming, drinking and gambling, Oh they do have slot machines there...The best part of the night was driving around in Kudat town searching for mamak. Haha..

Sunset view from the resort

Soon we came to this really clean shop (seldom see mamaks so clean), sat and ordered. As usual I'll order later as I was contemplating which to order. I'm not a fan of Roti Canai, it doesn't taste good these days and didn't feel like wanting a mee goreng. I dropped the idea of ordering anything until I saw the Roti Canai dad ordered. I was surprised, tried it and ordered one for myself. It was good. Trust me, you wouldn't find it in KL. Oh, how I wish I could ship the guy to peninsular, then we could all have finger lickin' good roti canai.. hehe

The mee goreng is nice too..yummy..

There, its big, its crispy, its delicious

It would be a waste if you don't visit the fish market when you're in Kudat. There were variety of fishes, small to big and there were even some which we rarely see in the peninsular. Maybe we've never seen it before too..Most tourists will at least buy some regardless of where they are from while these fish mongers have packing service. They'll provide lots of ice if you were to travel back to KK or flying over to the peninsular..Mum was so excited upon looking at those fishes..I guess she wished she could bring all home..hahaha =P

Well, I guess thats all about Kudat for now.. There's some other attractions along the way before arriving at Kudat such as the Honey Bee farm (we did stopped there) and the Rungus Longhouse. The journey from KK tu Kudat takes about 2 hours and the road is pretty much hilly but just enjoy the scenery..Something different. =)

Bali Part I

2009-12-27T17:31:00.002+08:00

Decided to post this up since its the end of the year already and its one my feature for 2009 wrap up. Went to Bali in my previous term break for 3 nights, 4 days. I stayed in Garden View Cottages & Spa which is situated at Legian, just a little further from Kuta. We plan our own itinerary and the driver just took us around.

American breakfast provided in the hotel

Terrace paddy rice, its cooling place..

Kuta beach entrance

Kuta beach, water sports spot

On the same day, we head up to Kintamani to have our lunch and to see the Volcano, I think the last eruption was 10 years ago. Forgotten the details. Anyway, the restaurant is quite a nice place, you can have your lunch while enjoying the scenery plus the weather. Its like the Cameron Highlands Sg. Palas Boh Tea House, a cooling place.

On the way down, we stopped at this place where they produce coffee.. Well, I must say, the best coffee found here, may disgust you. Read on..

Spend a lil' time to read this and try to digest what it says alright.

We had coffee tasting session and its not just coffee anyway..

From left :: Some kinda Tongkat Ali or whatever, pure coffee, hot choc and ginger tea.

Oh dinner on the second night was the best. Dinner on the beach, with sky full of stars and a bright moon, feeling the breeze of the sea and listening to the serene waves...and on top of it, mouthwatering seafood. What else can I say, its a place with great ambiance and delicious food.

The downturn part people, its the bill..haha. Its on the high side but if you're there to travel, just give it a try. =)

The famous, romantic Jimbaran Bay

Forgotten what we ordered..

...to be continued...

Bali Part II

2009-12-27T17:30:00.001+08:00

The following day we went to Ubud market..The place where its said to get the best bargain of everything..but hey, go early in the morning if you want the best price. =)

food and clothes..

Exactly anything you want...just name it

Accesorries, decorative items, A - Z..

The babi guling shop..

Its actually like our 'siu yuk' but it doesn't taste right there.. Its so horrible, I feel like vomitting.. eewww.. Anyway, this is in Ubud while the best place to have babi guling is in Nusa Dua.. Thats what they say.. Will try it out next time, if I have the chance.

Babi guling that taste so horrible.. yucks.

Then, there were visits to temples...Some really unique ones. Here I have, a temple with a folklore and the other, situated right on top of the cliff and we need to put on a sarong to go in. Its a holy temple.

The folklore of this Tanah Lot Temple is kinda long and I couldn't remember it well, but I'd like to cut it short. Sometime ago, a priest was bullied[or something happenned, I don't know], so he just somehow shifted the temple offshore and stayed there. How did he do it??..I have totally no idea. Anyway, I don't know how true is it..Its just a legend. So when its high tide, there's no way you can get to the temple, unless with a boat. The unique part is, you can just walk across to the temple when it is low tide.

Temple offshore, high tide.

See the rocks linking to the temple??you can just walk across when its low tide.

This is another temple in Uluwatu, which is right on top of the cliff..And they are really strict with tourists who comes and visit the temple. We're not allowed to go in to the temple itself, just hang around the grounds of it and take some pictures. Oh like what I mentioned earlier, you'll have to put on a sarong and tie a ribbon round your waist [provided and FOC] if you're not wearing long pants/skirt.

The temple is just right up there..

For once, I wanted a change in the breakfast..Rather than American breakfast everyday, I tried their local Nasi goreng Indonesia. Hmm..pretty disappointing, its nothing special. After that, we head to Kuta town, walk around, look see look see...and went to the airport..

Nasi Goreng Indon..

I've tried their Mc Donalds too.. the turnover is very much faster than in KL because the meat is just so fresh..The fries is almost the same as ours but their McFlurry is a bit smaller in size. I had their McFlurry Caramel - hmm..nice. =) I'm a big fan of McD. haha

The trip's good and would love to go there again, I want to see the dolphins in Lovina and so many other places. =)

Just for Laughs

2009-12-26T15:42:00.003+08:00

Played Pictionary for the first time, and boy was it funnnnny especially when Chung Seng fell with a loud thud but it wasn't anything about injured/broken arm..It was just to show fragile =.=". All the effort while Quen Seng sat there laughing and couldn't guess it right.hahaha..

Pictionary shows how good are we at drawing..Obviously, I failed my art..

Oja's creation : Dog...

Quen Seng says its a Crocodile

My creation : Rabbit Ears..

Oja says those are Wings

Top right corner :: Quen Seng drew a smiley YELLING!!

My creation: Giraffe..

Oja: Dinosaur..

There were more but I can only show these few

...Horrible drawings... =P

Merry Christmas everybody!!!!

2009-12-24T10:34:00.006+08:00

Oh well well...Here goes, one of the best times of the year and we'll be stepping into 2010 very soon. Though this recent years I don't really celebrate it, I'll still have some fun. Since its a time of sharing and giving, lets just loosen up and celebrate it with your loved ones. Be glad that we are able to celebrate it. =)

To be honest, there aren't much Christmas feel in the city these days, I really don't understand why. Despite all the lovely decorations, it just don't feel the same. Maybe its too commercialized. However, what I've seen in KK was a whole lot different - real meaning of Christmas, though their decorations aren't as fancy as what we see here, but the way they acknowledged it,....pretty impressive. You'll know what I mean, if you observe the locals..Well, I can't put into words, its difficult to explain..Lazy~~ hehe.

I came across something cute and lovely when I was in Mid Valley 2 weeks ago..Oh my, its a very good gift indeed for a friend, cousin, niece, kids and girlfriend. Yes, it applies more to girls. Sorry guys. =) It's a snowcat by Nici - German Toys. I got pretty excited with this wonderful toy because its just so soft[you can hardly find one like that these days] which makes you feel so comfy when you hug it and oh, you can take off the snow hood too. So cute =P. Its a lil' small though and the price is a lil' on the high side. Just feel like grabbing it at that time. hehe.

Snowcat, by Nici Germany.

Finally, whats Christmas without some jingles. N'sync's Christmas album still remains as my favourite especially Merry Christmas, Happy holidays; Home for Christmas and The Christmas song. Listen to some to hype it up.

Well, Merry Christmas and a Happy New year everyone..

May you have a lovely one. =)

*CheeRs*

Its a lovestory, baby just say...yes..

Exactly a month from my previous post und es ist schon schlimm. Haven't been doing a good job after all. I haven't get over it enough and the thoughts still haunts from time to time. Although I feel terrible upon hearing anything about it at all, at least I know and I won't feel left out. I'm still trying.

------------

Great news..!! Our friend Jian Xin got engaged recently and will be getting married next year I think.. Well, its good to hear and everyone's happy for him. Looking at the pictures of the proposal, I figured it must have been a really good and a romantic one. haha.. Seems like he's got a lot of ideas there. Congratulations!! =) *cheeRs*

I want to get over it.

2009-11-07T13:17:00.011+08:00

Woke up feeling grey today, because something struck my mind the moment I open my eyes. Its always been like that these days, off and on..Its beyond my control, really. I wish I could wake up thinking about you every morning, instead its

Something I barely wanna think of; Something I wish I don't have to think of; Something I don't want to worry about; Something I am supposed to be confident of, but it keeps haunting me most of my mornings =(

Its gonna be a month now and I've been trying my best to get over it;

I thought I was okay, but later to realize that:::::>>

I need time to adjust, accept and be comfortable bout it, but I can't be sure how long it takes. useless me.

-------------

Finished 2 papers this week, and it went uhh, badly. My bad, I haven't been concentrating well and I'll have to bear the consequences. Sigh. Will try my best for the next 3.

Wandering Around

2009-10-10T22:28:00.003+08:00

For a split second today, I thought I was living in a low-cost flat. While I was doing my own things, suddenly I heard some girls screaming away two blocks away and there were dogs barking. It felt like a mother screaming at her child " Stupid boy! Why did you spill water on the carpet??!!"..that kinda thing.

Then, suddenly I realized I'm living in a hostel...haha. My mind must have been wandering around and imaginations gone a lil' too far.

Oh, on another account, I thought of getting Saree this year to celebrate Diwali. Saree these days are so beautiful, I just want to have it.. On second thought, I have a few pairs and types of Baju Kurung, I want to get a Saree, and the embarrassing part is - I don't have a Cheong Sam. LoL.

Just another random post.

2009-10-02T01:47:00.009+08:00

Firstly, .. HAPPY BIRTHDAY S.H.Y!!!!

Taken @ 2007 birthday celebration

I know we can't celebrate together this year so I'll just wish all October babies a Happy Birthday.. There's just so many people - Peay, ZiLing, Shu Yi, Ernest, Sher How, Aunty Miler, Mr. Ngooi, Shur Hueih, Joo Ling and some others..

From left: Ernest, Aun

There's just so many things in a week that I want to tell, which I can't finish telling and..So, here goes...

It's just going to be another Hectic October : Like usual, more tests and tests on Sundays, datelines to meet and so forth.. Oh its going to be so crazy. Well, it is also a funny thing, this is the time where you will see E&E people walking around like Zombies, running here and there from lab to lab, completing their circuits and cursing the lab equipments for not working properly. Oh I heard there's a Uni open house on the 19th. People, just drop by at HEP to get your coupons, if you're interested. (The important dates: 4, 6, 11, 16, 19 and another one pending)

Well, I think everyone must know about the Earthquake that happened in Sumatera yesterday. Its scary and quite serious since we could feel the effect here too, but all, I missed the one experience. I hear them say, everything in the room were shaking, people wrapped in towels heading downstairs and so forth...I'm just wondering, if you were to run, what is the most important thing you'll bring along?

Another heart-wrenching story - Just got to know, a friend's diagnosed with heart attack recently. The heart's dying, a-b-normal heartbeat and so forth.. I guess all I can say is its destined since he is just my age, no smoking, no drinking and an athletic person. But stay strong, we'll pray hard for you too. Hope to see you during the finals. =)

Its Mid-Autumn festival this Saturday. Initially thought of going home and celebrate, but I'm having test on Sunday morning. Anyhow, we'll be having a simple celebration tonight - just a get together. Remember those times when Grandpa was around he would buy lanterns and he ring us up and ask us to choose the tanglungs ourselves, on first come first served basis. Its a yearly affair, and when he's gone, so does that. We just miss you so much.

Diwali is on the 17th October..Like usual, its a family thing and we'll all be in PD..Not sure if I can join this time, I have test on the 19th and projects to finish up. Hopefully, everything can be done in this coming 2 weeks.I don't want to miss the fun. *fingers crossed*

Oh guess what, I did something good..hehe. I was peacemaker for 2 lovebirds last week,I was told. Its totally accidental. Anyway, glad you people are talking again. =)

Finally, myself. I realized something this week(well, its last week actually), that I'll never learn to adapt well here. Not that I did not try, it just don't work. I find myself hopeless in fact, with so many support from loved ones, I still can't do it. Sorry to let you all down. Don't say its like that, or its normal, I know it myself, its not meant to be like that. Every time after a school break, I'll have a hard time - it'll last at least a week. Few days before the break ends, I'll start worrying, I don't sleep well, and the latest being - waking up early in the morning feeling scared/heavy/ or whatever it is. It just strikes my mind naturally. I guess I'm developing a fear. Its a psychology game and probably a test of perseverance. However tough it is, I'll finish this up, I'll pull through and hopefully I'll come out as a tougher person.

Its just part and parcel of our Life.

UTM Low-Speed Wind Tunnel

2009-09-15T18:49:00.020+08:00

I've always admire the aeronautics sector and even more when I watched the making of Airbus A380 on NAt Geo. Pretty amazing, I must say. When people say about aeronautics, the first thing that come into our minds are planes and planes and more planes. Alright, today, open up your mind people, as aeronautics involves more than just aeroplanes flying above us all. It covers a vast application including our cars, bridges, buildings and even the lamp post by the roadside.

So, this post is actually a little about aeronautics and one of its equipment which is the wind tunnel.

I went to UTM yesterday to visit its wind tunnel and I must say, I wasn't let down and it was way better than what I had expected. To be honest, I was both excited and interested to find out about this low-speed wind tunnel with a maximum wind speed of 80m/s.

Its the first in Malaysia, designed in Canada, assembled here and located in UTM's aerolab. One of its pioneer, Prof. Ir. Dr. Shuhaimi told us that they took one year to design and another year to build the wind tunnel. This huge thing costs RM20million and they need about RM200K for maintenance every year. Interesting, and a huge lum sum needed.

Being one of the first, UTM renders services to companies such as Proton, lamp posts companies, and the latest being F1 I think, to do their research and come out with the best product/solution. A few Proton models such as Waja, Persona, Savvy and Exora were being sent there for some research but normally, the test done on these vehicles is just a quarter of it due to its small test section. Now the cost - standard price, RM6000 per day(working hours).

Well, that's a little introduction about the wind tunnel and now the pictures...

Thats Prof. Ir. Dr. Shuhaimi clad in Grey Shirt

6 component balance

Well, this 6 component balance is placed right below the test section to collect data which is the 3 Forces and the 3 moments ie. Fx, Fy and Fz; Picthing moment, yawing moment and rolling moment ( Erm...I think I'm not wrong there).

Now, the test section:-

See this carefully and...you've got to come closer to the screen...

Test section with a Proton Waja prototype

Alright, see the movement of the wind??

(blown to the right side of the car)

See carefully, the white thing above the car...

One more clearer picture of it.

Right, if you noticed, the pictures above shows the movement of the wind and the white thing I was referring just then is the smoke produced by a smoke generator. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to see the wind blowing and its flow on the car.

And finally, BET always conquer everything..hehe. Just kidding. Well, instead of an SIEM trip, or a mechanical students' trip, it all turns into civil and electrical students' trip. To clear some things up, though this wind tunnel has got more benefits to the mechanical students, it is related with electrical and civil engineering. For electrical, you usually do the data collection part because they need your expertise. Its all yours. For civil, you need this to do building tests and bridges and come up with a certain flexibility, though it still look rigid to us. =)

BET at the test section

By the way, to the mechanical students, we'll try to organize another trip for you guys. Its in our planning. So, fret not. You'll definitely get an opportunity to see it. I don't mind going twice and I came back feeling inspired - I have an opportunity to venture into something else.

*CheeRs*

Confusion

2009-09-15T17:19:00.005+08:00

Imagine myself standing in the middle of a sea of people...

People couldn't see me..

You don't see me, you couldn't find me,

While I'm struggling to get out of the crowd.

The crowd's too huge and they just don't move..

They just don't move.

I feel so lost, so confused..

boy, its truly depressing...

All I can do is just wait,

and wait for time to pass...

Wait for them to move,

or either wait for someone to get me.

Just want to share this picture...Bintang Palace and the Imbi Chapel, just side by side. hehe. Ironic. Erm its a lil' blur though but I think you guys can recognize Bintang Palace.

Took this while lepaking at Imbi Road

09.09.09

2009-09-09T07:39:00.004+08:00

Class is supposed to be 8am but normally my lecturer will text and change the time to 820am, so thats the reason I'm blogging now...

I don't know if this is a really special day because we're gonna see this again next year on 10.10.10 and the following 11.11.11 and the last being 12.12.12 i think...Anyway, somebody greeted me happy 09.09.09 and it didn't occur to me that its such a special until this morning when I woke up.

It is indeed a special day.

Many couples are tying the knot today...Read the papers about 2 months back and it says many couples will register on this day despite the hungry ghost month for the chinese. Oh and even the young lady who did facial for me told me - she's getting married today..Congrats!

Maybe they're signing the papers at 9.09am?who knows..and I'll be having Statistics class that time.

Its just so wonderful. Oh Share this day with your loved ones.

*CheeRs*

Somewhere comfy

2009-09-01T18:24:00.013+08:00

My dream since young is to live in a penthouse and to cruise in one of my favourite cars BMW 318/ Cooper S or even a VW beetle..whichever I can afford. This would be a rather glamourous life.

Pic taken in Zurich, I think.

As I grow up, all these changes...

Sometimes I rather live by the beach...Watch the sunrise/sunset, become one of the beach girls and breathe the sea breeze. I could roam freely and even take a nap in a hammock in the evenings..Who knows I can master all the water sports.

Sometimes I rather live in a cottage far far away in the countryside..Own a big-enough-land to plant vegetables/lots of flowers; ride horses, ponies or even donkeys and having a cup of hot chocolate on cold, freezing nights - so comfortable. This would be an ideal way to lead a really simple and easygoing life. No worries & emo moments.

*Speaking of VW beetle reminds me of Grandpa's Jade Green one...Remember the times we always run around and climb on the car,Serena??..I guess its now in one of the collectors' hands*

Gloomy August

2009-08-31T22:11:00.002+08:00

Sensed something ain't right this whole month and looks like its just the beginning of this greyish August...I've been thinking about this the whole month too and it seems to be a repetition of Last August.

Fret not, as I could stand by, if only you would enlighten me.

Take 5 Tales

2009-08-31T00:58:00.009+08:00

Just the other day, my friend showed us a t-shirt design. They suggested to print our own class tee, something for us to remember BET(E&E majoring in telecommunication section). Well, it has long been in plan and finally, there is a concrete design. Simple and nice. This upcoming tee reminds me of the U6Clancy t-shirt. Sadly, it wasn't printed because its expensive...The design is of course beautiful.hehe. Looks like some perfume ad and I'm still keeping it. =)

For him tee

For her teee

Mixture of Crappy, Cheeky, Noisy & Quiet ones

The Innocent ones.Lol.

A highly prohibited place in KLCC..Naughty, naughty.

Ay, I really miss those days in MBS...If anyone says that form 6 is rubbish, giving remarks like wearing school uniform for another one an a half year??!! and STPM is so tough.. Well, I'd say, it was all worth it and of course all the good memories - precious.

Alright, enough for the nostalgic moments.. NOW GET BACK TO WORK!!! Having a test on National Day..Happy Independence Day everyone!! *cheeRs*

Getting back on track

2009-08-24T19:05:00.006+08:00

I'm back in the university and its week 7 now...Believe it or not, I've just settled down for this semester. The past 6 weeks were a mess, honestly. The first 3 weeks was the worst and the following 3 weeks were days filled with work and insufficient sleep.

Recently, I attempted to transfer to one of the known university near home and failed. Its not my first time though, and it wasn't because they didn't want me. It was because of an unjustified decision. No explanation given and I just had to obey. Very disappointing indeed. Oh what can I say, its beyond my control .Somehow, here I am, still stuck in my own twisted mind at times, hoping to get back on track and lots to catch up. Imagine catching up on 6 weeks of school work.

Another thing to share, I'm lucky enough to be able to leave the "cell"/off-campus hostel and shift back to Tun Fatimah Residential college. So no more complains on the hostel.. and now the lecturers..

I don't know why they like taking away people's public holidays. As students, do we have to commit our time just on books and give them all our holidays??...Or is it just my university which does things like that?..Or because time has changed and that we live in fast-paced society so we can don't need to respect independence day.. and have a test?!

If I could have a smile like yours

2009-08-06T03:13:00.007+08:00

I always like to clear things up fast, especially misunderstandings.

If it was my fault, I would apologize. I couldn't wait any longer, I'll keep thinking of it, I couldn't sleep, I couldn't continue doing anything, my mood changes there and then and I definitely feel very guilty. I couldn't stand this kind of situation. That's me.

Despite all of the above, I still have a question I've been longing to ask. Unfortunately, I couldn't bring out my courage to hear the answer - afraid it might not be what I want to hear. I just didn't have the confidence. But on the other hand, I'm curious. I want to know what lies beneath. Sadly, I'm not courageous enough. Instead, I'll just be patient. The answer should be somewhere in front.

Wouldn't it be good if I have a crystal ball in hand and I could see what's coming. Ahh, that would be so ideal. I'll lead an Alice in the wonderland life *dreaming*. I need not worry, nor will I always have to be few steps ahead. If it came to your senses and could be a lil' sensitive, I could lay back and relax because I don't want to be ahead of you all the time.

The weird dam

2009-08-03T12:30:00.006+08:00

The steep stairs were scary. Deep down below was gallons of water, and the scenery was quite a beauty, with light brown walls surrounding this place. The structure made me feel like it was a dam because there were channels on the wall, that I somewhat felt like water flows through it.

So it began with us walking down the stairs at a really slow pace..There were 3 of us and we were in our complete sports outfit. Each step is quite high, and that makes us slow down a lot. When we arrived at the platform below, there were few old people and they were practicing their tai-chi.

It was 10am. All of a sudden, a middle-aged man appeared out of nowhere and told us to run before it was too late. Moments later, water was gushing out of all the channels on the wall and you can see it the water rising really fast. The level was catching up to us. We ran up the stairs and surprisingly, this time, it felt like there were so little steps and we managed to climb so fast....So it was a dam.

Then, I woke up. I didn't get to see what happened after that..The best part is this isn't my first time seeing this place. I have this very same dream for a few times long ago and I dreamt bout this again last week.

Pity??..Please don't. Its making matters worse.

2009-07-07T00:52:00.008+08:00

I'm totally not in the mood and its just the first day. Catching up with my friends was great but when I'm back at the hostel, hmm...nothing's good. This is so discouraging. When people commented about the hostel, nothing good comes out. All you get is sympathy. DAng. It doesn't help at all and its even more discouraging. What a sad place.

How am I to spend 4 months here?

Wedding bells

2009-07-05T16:58:00.000+08:00

It was just another mundane wedding dinner. As usual, in small towns, the crowd is huge and they have people singing Karaoke so loudly and last night it was almost like being in the club. Goshh.. the high pitched voices..Ooh I just couldn't stand it. Anyway, the PA system is terrible.

What attracted me most was the video on the wedding day and the couple. It was nicely edited and its funny. It was also nice getting to meet other relatives which I have not seen for years. And what I like most is my nephew's son. He looks exactly like his mum and he is so cute!!!... I like him so much..

er...I didn't get his name =P

I need one more chance

2009-07-05T16:19:00.002+08:00

I must have done something right recently =)

Part of my prayers have been answered.

Finally, my family heard my voice, my message and my wish. The best part is, I have the green light. Now, all I have to do is to carry out the other part and hope that everything goes well.

I'm in the new hostel now and what a shock when I arrived. Although it is new, it is not conducive and absolutely incomplete. There's no place for laundry, the study table fits just right for a kid and ...oohh there's 0% privacy... However, I have to thank the officials for this, else, I wouldn't be able to get my green light. Meanwhile, I just have to bear with the situation.

May the force be with me. Wish me luck and pray hard.

Have faith

2009-07-01T00:46:00.003+08:00

Faith,

An important element

Could Uphold everything

You just need to believe it.

So have a little faith.

Its coldplay night

2009-06-24T01:17:00.003+08:00

Yet another sleepless night.

I had some really rough nights in Cameron Highlands, all due to flu/sore throat [Its not SwiNE Flu] and some really bad dreams - for 2 nights in a row. I think I did kick or probably hit Serena with all the dramas in the dream. So sorry sis.

But there's an agenda tonight.

I have been in the shadows for quite some time and I think its time to come out. I really want to.

"Lights will guide you home"

Lonely meals, I hate you!

2009-06-10T17:00:00.002+08:00

I hate having meals alone...I hate it! I hate it! Just don't know why.

Well, this comes with an exception of course, which is at home only. Anyway, I didn't bring lunch to work today..[ Ting..ting..Suan is working?? *Sounds unbelievable to some*..I know, I know but Yes people, I am. I'll tell you more later.] So, I decided to head down to Subway Sandwiches, wanted a take away, but ended up having it there..Sounds contradicting??Well, here's the story..

When I walked in, it was somewhat cosy and the fact that I was disturbed by this stranger up there, something tells me...I should just have my lunch at Subway. So, upon my intuition, I had my lunch there and enjoyed coldplay music in the house.

Somehow, it wasn't good. I still dislike having meals alone. =.="

Goodbye Gossip Girl

2009-06-10T15:29:00.008+08:00

the three lovely ladies of GG

As much as I love TVB Dramas, I'm into American series too. It wasn't long before I realized some of it are worth watching - but for girls and girls only. Well, I seldom mention about these series that I watch, but I guess Gossip Girl Season 2 finale is worth a post. Of all the 2 seasons that I've watched every week, I think S02E25 is the best. This one brings a little different taste in the series and its an all rounder.

Well, if you didn't know, my favourite is the "bad boy" Chuck Bass (Ed Westwick). He's got the look and he falls well into the character too. The way he speak - almost in whispers, the way he dons - stylish and smart and the thing he does - naughty. It all sums up and becomes a devilish guy.

So what's so interesting with Goodbye Gossip Girl that outshine the other episodes? awesome dialogue, amazing scenes and most importantly its breathtaking ending!.. =)

Chuck bass getting out of the car

Chuck Bass looking cool...

Let me recall some of the dialogues from the last few episodes :-

In ep. 24:-

Georgina : Tell Jesus...that the bitch is back!!

Prom night:-

Chuck : I've voted for Blair for 150 times, I just want her to be happy tonight.

In ep. 25:-

Gossip girl text : Not so fast. You're not graduating until I give you my diplomas. Mine are labels, and labels stick. Nate Archibald: Class whore. Dan Humphrey: The Ultimate Insider. Chuck Bass: Coward. Blair Waldorf: Weakling. And as for Serena VDW, after today, you're officially irrelevant. Congratulations, everyone. You deserve it.

Gossip Girl : You wanted to meet Gossip Girl? Well look around. I'm nothing without you. And while most high school friendships fade, its my hope that what happened today bond you forever. Now that all my secrets are out, you have a clean slate. Until college. Congratulations, I'm coming with you.

Chuck : I was a coward running away again. But everywhere I went, you caught up with me. So i had to come back.

Blair : I want to believe you, but I can't. You've hurt me too many times.

Chuck : Then believe me this time.

Blair : Thats it?

...and you've got to watch it yourself.. Its the last and the best scene. =)

More bass picture..hehe

Another Chuck Bass..LOL

Ouh well...I couldn't wait for Season 3 to be out.. Wonder whats it gonna be like? hehe..it better be good. =)

Gossip Girl Season 3 Adv.

ps:this is strictly not for children below age 18...bad influence. =P

The heart of KL...

2009-06-04T00:08:00.009+08:00

stands tall with many high rise buildings most of which are offices. Apart of it, there are exclusive service apartments, penthouses and hotels. One of it is Traders' Hotel and its situated right beside KL Convention Centre.

Now imagine waking up, drawing your curtains and there...you see Petronas Twin Towers right in front of your eyes. While working out in the gym, you see Petronas Twin Towers..I guess it'll be quite boring if its a routine but if its just one day, you feel different. Trust me, looking at the towers from 17th floor makes a big difference than admiring it from the ground. The buildings are huge!

So in the beginning of the term break, I put up a night at Traders' (btw, its complimentary stay) and my oh my, its a great hotel. From its lobby to Sky Bar, I say its awesome, though the view is nothing green but a concrete jungle. The bed is comfortable, different shapes of pillow from what we have at home ; the bathroom is unique in its own way - very importantly, they have the giant shower head (oh I adore that so much) and the view - you don't get to see it often unless you own an apartment in town. Well, don't have to say more, a picture worth a thousand word.

The pathway in the room - on the left is the bathroom

Night lights..a small part of KL..

I only managed to capture KL tower because I was arrived there quite late and they've switched off KLCC's lights..Otherwise we could get a picture of the 2 lighted 'jagung'..hehe

Ever comfy bed..uhh miss it!!

Camwhore laa tu..haha *wink*

27th floor - where mum & dad stay

Healthy breakfast for once..haha

They serve congee too..haha

Omelette which has everything in it..lol

Dad & I @ breakfast

Thats...we all know what..

Concrete Jungle..haha

Sky Bar, the poolside rooftop bar or rooftop poolside bar on the top floor (whichever the arrangement is)is a pretty cool place.. The pool is there, the spa is there and the bar is there...Probably its a nice place to be for those who drink - the ambience and the music, its really something. Sadly, I didnt get a chance to look at the place in the night, instead I went the next morning...

Sitting area for Sky Bar?

Nice pic..I like this

The pool & Sky Bar

Oh yea...for those who are insterested in Sky Bar, your attire has to be smart casual, no shorts and no flops. =) I do want to go there again of course, just to sleep the whole day. I like the bed so much. haha.

Ps: Traders' KL is totally different from Traders Muar.. haha

xoxo

2009-05-05T22:04:00.004+08:00

Happy birthday..hehe. I guess not many knows about it..

Supposed to belanja him, but he belanja-ed me in the end..haha.

Ouh well, I had dinner with OJa on thursday...Wanted to go rahsia at first, but we decided to go for banana leaf rice in Kanna Curry house..Funny you may think, but nevermind, its the companion that matters..hehe.

BTW, thanx for the ferrero...Its nice, and I know its expensive. Thanx. I saved up another one for you.

Tangled within, I think.

2009-05-05T21:47:00.008+08:00

I begin to feel the shiver

I don't want to recall what

I've been through in the past...

My darkness has been lighted up since

and I don't want to step into it again.

Enlighten me whenever possible.

Thanx.

More than words can say

2009-05-05T19:46:00.008+08:00

It all ended with goodbyes, hugs and tears.It was unexpected, I never thought after so many years, the same thing repeats..So yeah, I guess "history repeats" is true. I know I won't be seeing you for at least six months to come, but its alright, somehow the last few days were awesome.

We had dinner at Aunt Betty's place on friday - on request she cooked my favourite green siamese curry, Oooh yummy and there were lots more delicous dishes ( she said she won't be cooking much but the table was full of food). Yeah, after dinner we hang out at her place awhile and she brought out her precious old country port ( its red dessert wine)..We were supposed to be in Genting after that but we ended up in Bar Celona in Sunway, the four of us. It was sort of a look-see-look-see thing and as conclusion, I don't really like the place because I stink from head to toe when I came out...

Woke up early on Saturday to send the Myvi off to Shah Alam.. There, it was cling wrapped and placed in a 20 foot container to be shipped off the KK.I don't have the picture with me though. We dine in at Souled Out, Sri Hart that night - well, now I know, we shouldn't name it as high class mamak. There was nothing much in the menu like mamak instead the food were delicious.Its fusion and the portion was big with reasonable prices. Well, bro called to reserve a place - near the screen perhaps due to MU's match at 7.40pm. So yeah, dinner + football match..and we ordered more drinks. haha. Below are some of the food we ordered :-

Super candid shot!! haha.. don't laugh please

Gotcha. Eat, Eat and Eat..hehe. sorry...

mutton with naan..I dunno whats it called.

The mutton is tender.. =)

Mutton topped with spinach served with naan.

Forgotten its name..But its nice =)

I've got no idea whats this..

Chicken cordon "Blurrrrrr"

Fruit punch - A mixture of mango, oranges

and....xxxxx. Forgotten. LOL

On Sunday morning, I learned to clean the water feature - I'll be doing the job when bro's not around... Later in the noon, we sent bro and sis in law, the time I hated most. Anyway, its a good thing your career has taken you one step higher...all the best and we'll miss you =) BTW, dad has a surprise..I can't tell you what is it..but he got us a new "toy"..hehe You'll see when you're back (which is..God knows when haha) =P

Under a new Roof

2009-04-27T22:22:00.005+08:00

So i managed to get a place in the school's hostel but not in the varsity grounds.. It is located somewhere near the school and its known as "Bandar Universiti" which is not-so-bandar-after-all, that's all I can say.

Attended the briefing about the new place yesterday and as what I've heard, I'll be facing a whole new environment next term..Something good??haha..maybe. Read on, and you judge.

Bandar Universiti is a new garden with terrace houses as well as shoplots. From what I've heard, the University has taken up some of the shoplots over there, will renovate it and make it into a new residential college.. Well, I guess they decided on the place because of the location - close enough to the school ( within 15-20 mins walking distance,maybe??). Maybe the shoplots part sounds a bit ewww...to me, yes it is (What??!!shophouses??!!)..but no choice. If they are really gonna make it look like a residential college, I'm cool with it.

Right, anyway, most of the first years will be kicked out to that new place - and there were objections...yes, it seems like a debate session yesterday with the headmistress. Really, but my dear girls, be contented...Many don't stand a chance to get it. If you think staying in a rent house is better, go ahead apply to get out. I think the authorities will be happier, less headache for them to allocate students.

The only thing I've got to worry about is the safety there. Since I came here, the one thing I'm afraid of are the foreign workers...Though it will be a guarded community, individual safety is essential...Somehow that place is quiet and kinda deserted...ZZzzz..I hope the place is guarded 24 hours as promised by the student council..At least, there's a bit of backup (though not 100% trusted).

Ouh well, its too early to talk about it now...I'll share my experience with you all this coming July. =) I hope its at least half as comfortable as the place I'm staying now...

Clear cut

2009-04-23T23:47:00.006+08:00

"My decision is final, I'm very much happier now..I have freedom", she said calmly but with a stern look and she repeated it again and again when asked the same question.

Never did V thought this would happen. Its a turn down for the other but nothing can be done now. The decision lays in E's hands. Yes, in this period, E changed quite a lot and of course her life had improved. Somehow in V's eyes, E isn't that happy after all. Something else is bothering her and the worse thing is E doesn't share matters of the heart. So it remains a mystery.

All her life, E is a well-protected child and very different from her siblings. She used to complain about it and envy them a lot. Her siblings hoped to help her pull through, but E sticks to her routine - she don't feel like sharing.

They love her very much always and always..The only thing they can do is to support her all the way.

Song yeu, with the coolest instrument!!

2009-04-08T17:23:00.003+08:00

Song yeu, not with the coolest hair but the coolest instrument haha

Song yeu invited OJA and I to one of SGM's Galaxy Chamber Orchestra Wind Quintet in concert 2009 themed Dawn of Hopes in early March. There were just 5 performers with their awesome instruments - flute, oboe, horn, bassoon and Song Yeu with his clarinet.

It was totally a great show and its the first time I see Song Yeu performing on stage with his clarinet.. And man, he was nervous - we don't see him like that often in fact never..hehe and you do look great on stage..Perform more next time!!

Yeay, I've got a feel of the clarinet =)

The songs they performed - some of which we must have heard before and some we have not. They actually brought us all over the world (alright, just some parts), the States, Paris and Japan ranging from jazzy to marches to an oldie then to animated songs and also...the ever mischievous pink panther song. All of it were well arranged and they just blend very well when put together.

*thumbs up* randomly i guess..haha

There was also a group of guest performers which performed 2 songs. H-Six Sax, a group of six performing with their saxophones full of expression and they were so into the music. Its just so, jazzy I suppose..hehe.

we were actually putting it on timer...

Anyway, thanx for inviting and I enjoyed the songs very much. I'm so looking forward to see you perform again next time, and make sure you invite us again yeah.. =)

ps: I just kinda like the Chang Feng Hall..its clean.lol.

Masquerade Party...Something different

2009-04-08T14:46:00.007+08:00

I was so excited that part of my dreams came true when I was selected to be the Events Director for the annual grand dinner of the society... Its another step to trying something new which I have always wanted. It was a mixture of excitement and surprises...and I remembered sharing this piece of great news with some others.. Thanx for all the support!!

So the dinner was on the 28th February 2009, in Classic Hotel, Muar (apparently its the best in Muar) and the theme - I wanted something different and to make it a night for all to remember, i decided on colorful masquerade. In fact, the buffet dinner was quite cheap and I was really surprised I can even find that kind of price here.. Believe it or not, its just RM35 NETT with a free mask.

the lovely couple...ReeMEsh

Our Emcee for the nite

Sin Mei & I..thanx for coming gal

some of the committee members

Colorful Masquerade Guestbook 2009

I say, it was an experience and I had learned a lot. From communicating to leading and making decision, it definitely wasn't easy but at the end of the day, I felt absolutely great about it. There were games, performances and an open dance floor at the end..All the programs went on quite smoothly and I must say its a success (not bragging..hehe).

Most importantly, the outgoing committee members were pleased and I'm happy that they enjoyed the night, so do I. A big thanx and hugs to all my committee..you guys had worked hard and it was a great job!! I hope everyone enjoyed at the dinner. =)

Ps: so sorry, theres a problem uploading pics in blogspot..I managed to upload a few only..

They enjoy spoiling our weekends

2009-03-01T15:29:00.004+08:00

So the coming weekend may be another partial ruined weekend...thanx to our lecturers again. We heard there may be a talk regarding Malaysian Studies and we are asked to write a report on it. Pathetic. I don't understand why they have to choose a long weekend over a normal weekend and I don't even know why in the world i have to take Malaysian Studies despite taking Ethnic Relations, studying history over and over again..and its the same thing.

The same thing is repeating yet again since Valentines day. While i was dreaming of a cute teddy with a nice necklace on it, it was all down the drain when the lecturer announced that we are having a test on the 15/2.. haha, so all we did was date our books instead of our loved ones. Well, though that was a fact, but i did enjoy V-day as well.. hehe =) I guess its a special one too. The fact that the transformation I see and felt recently, today, I'm glad, grateful, more than satisfied and ..so much more.. I'm just happy. I hope this could all go on like there's no end to it. haha.. *says this dreamily...hmm*

Enlighten me.

Grant me my wish, please..

2009-01-15T17:06:00.006+08:00

So the hottest topic among the Year twos is living outside next semester onwards which doesn't interest me at all. That was at first.

Now it does and puts me into dilemma and well, a bit worried I guess.

Initially, I just wanted to stay in the campus throughout my four years here. Despite all the curfews, restrictions and NO privacy thingy, somehow its very convenient living inside and I'm comfortable. Plus, safety is my parents' main concern and living out isn't so fun like what the others think. The main point: it'll be better if I don't add another burden to my parents unless there's no other choice.

Well, the thing is, for next year, we'll have to re-apply to live in the campus and its a every-term thing. Which means, even if I'm eligible to stay in the campus next term, doesn't mean I can do so the following semester, which is a total burden to students because of the limited houses available around the area. So, its a repetition of procedure which is silly. Plus, the criteria of eligibility to live in the hostel just seems to be some gimmick.

The millionaire question is what if I don't get a place??...then it'll be a disaster. I don't fancy living outside simply because with all the inconvenience I could think of, its more of a burden than of help. And I don't want to exchange the inconvenience that will cause me with living outside just for my privacy, freedom...and you name it.

Its really not up to me to decide now...i'll just have to pray hard at the moment and do whatever I can to secure a place in the hostel.

Full of warmth.

2009-01-10T00:14:00.005+08:00

I tend to observe and see things around me..

Uhh Well, i observe people going through a particular situation and most of the time theres just some kind of feeling running through me whether it is bitter or sweet. What I see is what I'll feel. And today, today is just the day I want to blog about the people I observed.

Today, when I left Puduraya and walk passed the MBS' staircase linking the LRT station, I saw someone familiar - the uncle who sell drinks in MBS canteen. He was sitting there staring at something as if he was thinking. I approached him and we started to chat a little. He said he is waiting for his wife (aww...how nice) and then aunty came. She was bringing tiffin carriers as well. Probably they were heading somewhere else to have their dinner. It was pretty sweet, him sitting there on the staircase waiting for her to come get him with homecook food or something like that.

Then, there were two old men with pulley luggage and a hand carry on top of it..One of them were held up because of the lugagges; I wanted to help but I couldn't because firstly, there's no way I can take the bar away, and secondly, by the time I pass the bar the guard was already there to help them. I feel bad seeing them there because they don't seem to be able to walk well and they seemed quite unsure with the directions. Its just..so sad.

Met a high school couple in the train. Both looked exhausted with heavy bags and the moment was so warm as if the clock just stop ticking - the girl was clinging on to the guy and they were whispering to each other. hehe. I didn't eavesdrop, my MP3 was on. =)

Oh I went through all the messages in my phone the previous night and I realize I kept all the nice, sweet messages. The kind of messages you may not get any sooner. There were also goodnight forwarded messages which we don't usually send/receive it anymore these days. I'll keep it anyhow. Sometimes its really nice when you read it again once in a blue moon especially on cold lonely nights. It just gives you the warmth and its totally cherished.

I'm back in the 'kampung'!!

2009-01-04T20:44:00.006+08:00

Just so you know, I'm back in the uni after an extension of a week's holidays and I really enjoyed the last few days of 2008 and the first few days of 09. It was a great one.

Alright, i just came back here to BP today and I'm kinda excited with tomorrow's class. Maybe you don't believe it, I don't too actually but its happening. I'm really looking forward to it. Okay, probably its just for tomorrow. hehe. =P

Well, since its just 4 days of the new year, we're all still talking about new year resolutions. Mine, there's quite a number and I'm still working on my resolutions but I'll just mention a few here.

*Try not to go home too frequent during semesters.
*A change for myself. For the better of course.

Seriously, I'm trying to work on the first resolution and I know I'll face tough moments but I think I can endure it. Help me, would you? Leave out all the sadness and keep all the great moments I have previously, I want to improve on some things in life and I hope I can make it happen. Wish me luck. =)

Happy New Year. God Bless all.

Indulge in my brief reminiscence

2008-12-30T02:25:00.001+08:00

Few days more to 2009. My holidays expired yesterday and I'm still at home. Surprised?? I am too actually. Not sure if i've made the best decision but I just want to spend the best of my last week here. I hope 2009 will be a whole new year for me.

Well, I'm skipping the first week to celebrate new year here ( not my real intention though) and I'm hoping that it would be a good one. Christmas was pretty different this year. Doesn't seem like Christmas at all. Anyhow, I had dinner with my family and we went to Mid Valley to watch IP MAN. It was a great show. Like it.

Shifted house about two weeks before Chinese New Year and though things were a bit messy then, we've been keeping up slowly clearing and bringing in new stuff from time to time. So yea, its a much better place to live in now. We even had the orphans performing Lion dance during CNY. Some of you did watch it and it was a charity for the Ti-Ratana kids.

During my 'end-of-the-year' holidays which is May - July, I went to Langkawi with my family, Genting with friends, get to know new friends, hang out with friends, more hang outs with friends searching for food and things like that. It was a great holiday.

Then came Year 2 in my university life. Nothing stopped me from going back whenever I want, I just don't bother, pack my bags and leave on Friday as long as i like it. As if I own that place. hehe. Anyway, the first half of my 2nd year wasn't that bad after all and it was full of experiences. I get to know people from other universities, engineers, I was involve with more activities to keep myself busy. I experience a path of being a creative inventor - which wasn't so creative after all and also help out the Indian cultural society - being a volunteer and the list goes on.

Well, I got the chance to w atch 2 concerts this year courtesy of bro's friend and dad. hehe. Jay Chou in the beginning of the year and Hacken Lee in November. Jay Chou's concert was quite fun to me and its interesting while Hacken Lee in Genting was great. Something which i did not expect. Well, I would love to see Hacken's concert again but with better seats. hehe.

Birthday parties.. I celebrated my 21st birthday at home and I'm glad that you all came, thank you very much. I must say it was a nice one and it leads me to meet my primary schoolmates again which we've lost contact for almost 10 years. I'm glad that we have the chance to meet up again. =) Besides, I've attended quite a number of birthday parties and celebrated some friend's birthday. All was good, we've finally breakthrough the legal age.. =P

Things weren't too good towards the end of the year. Well, I personally felt that way. It was rather bumpy for me. Though there were happy times, of course, but there were countless bad times too. Its just that others don't see it. Somehow, I managed to handle it along the way and I've learned 3 things - to endure, to love and to be patient. The other thing is friendship. I think we lose some of them, but i hope it could be fixed.

Well, that's all from me...A 2008 wrap up. Start writing your New Year resolutions. =)

Happy New Year.

Wristwatches

2008-12-28T12:40:00.002+08:00

Spent my holidays searching for the perfect watch and sadly, I've not found any yet. Yes I'm fussy because knowingly I'll put on this watch on my wrist for years, so I want it to be the perfect one. I've seen Swatch for umpteen times and I finally spotted two - one with floral velvet strap and the other with brown leather strap. Very classy indeed but then again, i thought i should survey a little longer. I've also tried on Fossil - their watches are fancy and beautiful but it doesn't seem to suit me. I've surveyed all the watch shops in Sunway Pyramid(forget about the exquisite watches) and I found nothing. I'm waiting for my friend to show me the Swiss Army watch - not bad.. but i've got to see the real thing.. I'll upload the picture soon anyway.

I've always admire Franck Muller's wristwatches. Watches for the elite which can go up to RM90K for a watch.. Admire is one thing and to own it is another. I hope its not a spoiler for me to search for my ideal watch. =)

Christmas Eve

2008-12-24T11:09:00.004+08:00

I love Christmas, I always do...

the curve X'mas decor...

The clothes are nicer during this time of the year, the Megasales just tempts everyone, the decorations in most of the malls are beautiful and its the time where we see everyone bustle around in the malls getting the best presents for their loved ones.

Christmas parties (oh yes i love it - shepherd's pie and roast turkey), carollings and exchanging gifts is what we do during Christmas.. The best part in Malaysia is that most of us celebrate Christmas regardless of the race and religion. Alright, we just celebrate every festival..Like who cares..haha as long as we're happy with it, right?

Yes..I celebrate Christmas every year but not this year i guesss.. *sad*. On Christmas Eve last year, I went KLIA for no reason and I was there for McD. That may sound crazy but it was fun.hehee..This year, i do have a couple of line ups - BBQ party at a childhood friend's place, dinner at Shogun, chill out at friend's place, movie with family but i extraordinarily turned them all down except for the dinner at my neighbour's place i guess. Probably i have yet to see the best coming or I'm expecting something else to pop up.. *winks*

Anyway, the current plan for tonight is a Starbucks frapp along with Gossip Girl Season II. Omg..I just love Serena Van der Woodsen, Blair Waldorf, Dan Humphrey, Nathaniel Archibald and Chuck Bass in the show.. they are greaattt!! =) Love it.

Alright, thats all for now...I'm going to get a present later. hehe.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

*CheeRs*

Me, myself and I

2008-12-02T22:36:00.008+08:00

This may be long and beware of the randomness.

There's too much of thinking lately. Whether it is day or night, these things just struck my mind whenever, wherever and whatever i was doing then. And then it went on further and deeper into thoughts. I hope I didn't go too far...This time there were many things that i was thinking of - my future, my studies, my health, my relationship, myself, my holidays, what's going on in the next episode of the drama, what's going to happen next year, the recession we are facing now and yadda yadda yadda. I'm simply too free i suppose.

My future and my studies. I once tried to apply a scholarship with 3 years bond from one of the big chemical company but due to the title of the essay, i didn't continue with the application. I totally had no idea what should i write about my future plans back then. Kinda pathetic, i felt. Electrical Engineering seems to make people go "wow" by just listening to the course's name. Though it sounded professional, its still about myself. By now, I'm not really sure if i could be good in this line. I hope i could. Anyhow, I'm still looking forward to what I am to face when i graduate. I even go to the extend of planning to take up Masters elsewhere. We'll see.

My studies wasn't so good this term. Probably there were too much fun, probably something else was bothering me or maybe I didn't understand anything about Electronic Principles at all. All the BJTs, JFETs, MOSFETs, DC load lines and AC amplifier circuits...i thought i handled it well but i was so wrong and I couldn't blame the lecturer for not teaching the whole freaking semester because I'm the one studying. I thought i enjoy drawing AC equivalent circuits. I honestly liked it in Chapter 3 of the module. That was how i scored my Test 2 as well but the exam turned out bad...now what? Lets appeal some says...but i'm reluctant to do so.. So be it, i thought.

Health. Hmm...my headache is getting more aggressive and frequent than usual. The pain can go all the way to the back of my head. It sounds serious. Sometimes i think maybe there's a tumor somewhere up there thats causing the headaches.. Or probably i have migrain or something like that? I'll probably should go for a check up. I initially wanted to go for a whole body check up this holidays, but ...now i think its not the right time. Ouh i was banned from taking ice 2 months ago and i did a pretty good job for the whole month until i came back..i started taking ice again..Hmm either i heed the advice or pay the consequences when i'm older. Its my choice..

Being pressurized. Well, thats the word? Yea, what can I say...my bad??Hmm If you think so, then it is. Sometimes, I just don't know what else can i do...Right, you teach me.

It seems the moon last night was very beautiful. Since some told me hey look at the moon, did you see the moon last night?..I guess it was really a good one. Wasted, i didn't get to see.I was searching for it, but couldn't find the moon..and so i gave up. Good for those who've seen it. I want to watch twilight. Its a human-vampire movie and a romantic love story kinda movie. Its based on a novel and heard it was a bestseller or something like that. Hmm..i want to see how good it is since people said its nice.

Alright, i think i should stop. No one wants to read further.

Mamma Mia!

2008-11-30T20:48:00.004+08:00

How could i miss such a good movie?!!! hehe..but i still get to watch it today.. yeay =)

Mamma Mia the movie is based on a stage play which featured the songs from a famous group, Abba. The movie takes place in one of the Greek island, Kalokairi (omg...its just so beautiful!!) and starring Meryl Streep, Pierce Brosnan (imagine our once 007 agent singing!!ahhh), Colin Firth, Amanda Seyfried, Dominic Cooper, Julie Walters, Christine Baranski and Stellan Skarsgård.

The story is about Sophie who is a soon-to-be bride got hold of her mum's diary and knew that one of the 3 men in the diary is her father. She secretly sent wedding invitations to the 3 of them using her mum's identity. The story begins and.....you've got to watch it yourself. hehe.

Songs like Waterloo, Dancing queen, I do, I do, I do, Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A man after midnight), Mamma Mia, Super Trouper, The wimner takes it all, Take a chance on me, Lay all your love on me were sang in the movie. There are lots more..

The movie is awesome and funny.. The songs sang by them were nice and great...but some of the songs were altered accordingly to suit the movie.. I wanna watch it again!!!..just so good. Its a superb movie for Abba lovers and high school musical fans.

Hacken Lee in Genting 2008

2008-11-28T14:55:00.005+08:00

Sorry for the late post. Have been quite lazy to blog.hehe.

It's been quite some time that I wanna watch Hacken Lee in concert and well, dad bought his tickets this year, surprisingly. hehe. He bought 3 tickets for mum, sis and myself. The bad thing was its in the middle of my final examinations. But I wanted to go so badly...and there we were on the 15th of November, all the way up to Genting just to watch him. Ouh yea, it was also my first time in Casino and the people gave me some weird look.Nevermind, I find them weird too..Also,I find it quite boring..Probably, I didn't see much yet there. Will try again next time. hehe.

Back to the concert.I'm not one of his good fans, I just like his songs and the concert was AWEsome!!!..Never thought he would be humble to go near the fans and to sing whatever request from the fans. There were twice encore and each time it was quite long. The concert dragged to 3 hours and I lost count of the songs he sang (both old and new songs). It was just too many. He don't talk much during concert and thats the whole point of it...We pay to hear him sing live not to hear him talking nonsense. He change quite a number of clothes and I've never seen him in very hip style - with tight hot pink pants and a pretty cool jacket(that was the last pair). Guess what he could dance pretty well, pretty different from what we always see on tv and because of the concert this year, he played the piano. Just a single piece and he was quite nervous while playing(in case of wrong notes i guess). I didn't take any pictures but found some on the internet...Thanx people. here we go ~~

in da middle of the fans

singing and a lil' dance movements

What song shall I sing??...

A new song with slide show

Singing his heart out~~

His style is pretty much different from some artistes..He likes closing his eyes while singing. Probably he is feeling and enjoying the song very much. The emotion is just there.His voice, though it changed throughout the years, but it was still powerful. Anyhow, the concert was great..!! Let's go again next year!! Lolz. *cheeRs*

Pre-Maths Paper

2008-11-06T00:25:00.005+08:00

A day before the paper, I behaved pretty good and was practically revising my maths whole day. Asked if I was bored, yes at times, but the more I did the questions - it was quite interesting. hehe. I wasn't bothered with all sorts of temptations - watch dramas and chattering around me. Ouh well, of course we do need some rest.. Come lets see what have my friends and I done hours before we sat for the maths paper.

15 hours before the exam

We gave Ye-Ne (roomie) a surprise. It was her birthday and I'm sure its a good surprise - we didn't have any weird or obvious acts. In fact, it was a suprise for all october babies on that day, yea that includes myself.hehe. Sin Mei gave her a tiny little cake and I gave out all the presents I bought during the study week shared by 5 of us.. And to my surprise, I got one from them too.

all the presents...

and of course...mine..awww

Yea, that's the first of the Harry Potter series and that makes one more to go before I have the complete set of Harry Potter series. Thank you so much girls..hehe. Then we had our dinner and...back to my desk.

11 hours before exam

I was feeling kinda tired by then and wanted to walk around. So, I went to my friend's room and guess what were the 2 geniuses doing...

watching drama...there's another one - shes just hiding

another roomie - study sampai kat katil. lolx

and my table.. full with past year papers

9 hours before exam

I was already in bed at about 11 something...but guess what, like usual - I didn't sleep well. This time, i was semi-conscious almost throughout the night..I was tossing and turning in bed and woke up a few times..Hush, just couldn't have proper sleep..

And today... the exam hall was freaking cold - freezing in it... Anyway, the paper turned out , satisfactory I guess..No comments on it. I'll just hope for the best. *fingers crossed*

2008-11-03T16:49:00.003+08:00

As comfortable as a bolster
So blinded by you
That I never notice
you're paying the cost
How could I ignore such
small little things
Perhaps I'm failing to read between the lines

Thankful for its
neither loose nor gone
Grateful for you're still
here no matter what
Let us
embrace for the days to come
and share
the cries and joys

Study break

2008-10-31T18:55:00.003+08:00

Its the last day of october and we're approaching the end of the year very soon...Hmm my finals is next week and I haven't been studying much.I did study, okay, just that its not enough.lolx. See, its so not good to plan for myself - it always don't work especially it comes to revising. How i wish someone could offer to make a personal timetable for me..Then probably, i'll get my butt off and start studying. ~Dream on~

Anyway, some of you out there are really curious on what i've been doing during the study break huh..keep on asking me..Alright, I'll say...

I went to PD for Diwali lunch on Monday at my uncle's place...Well, it was nice and delicious as usual - mutton curry, chicken curry and there were few other dishes. Spent almost the whole day there resting, eating, chatting and so forth..Its nice to be in the jungle once in awhile. By the way, the house is surrounded by rubber trees and palm oil plantation..But recently, they re-planted the rubber trees, so the place is not as cooling as usual but its still quiet. Pretty surprised with the demo my cousin showed us on their dogs. 12 of them. Immediately when he pulled the trigger of the gun, the whole bunch of them came near us - knowing that they'll go hunting. Nice one.

Met up with some primary schoolmates - its the second gathering we had. Steamboat in Yulek, hmm....nice one. Almost everyone changed,lol i changed too - after almost a decade of not keeping in touch with them. I could remember some of them and probably couldn't remember some, but name does sound familiar. Anyway, its great that we get to sit down and walking down memory lane with them was fun. We talk, laugh and darn, its really funny thinking back our school days. Hopefully everyone could make it on the next one. Would love to see more people joining us. =)

Ouh managed to catch a movie - Bangkok dangerous. Hmm...bit unexpected as I expected more from Nicholas Cage but it was alright.. Hopefully i can watch High School Musical 3 this week.. Sounds nice. And i really really really want to eat Banana Leaf rice.. missed it pretty much whether its in Section 17 or Bangsar...I don't care..I just want to eat. Lunch anyone? hehe. Just kidding.

Ouh well, guess thats about it...Study break is meant for us to rest after a very very tiring and hectic semester.hehe. Wish me luck for my exams and will be back in KL again very soon..
Till then.

Einundzwanzig - 2 1

2008-10-27T21:09:00.003+08:00

Turning 21...ohh wait a minute, turned 21.

A very brief post.

Had a birthday party last saturday, not something grand but I guess it was a good one. I had fun and I hope you guys enjoyed yourself too. Er...you guys did have fun right?hehe. Mum and aunt cooked while the one thing that I liked most was, my brother baked the birthday cake. Thanx bro, mum, aunt elsie and all other family members - love ya all.

Many thanks to all my friends that came that night ( will be too many if i name all). Really appreciate it very much. Special thanks to Serene and Ziling, thanx for travelling all the way from north and south...I was really really surprised Serene managed to make it (you tricked me!!!You bad gurl..hehe. Miss ya so much =P). Thanks Yip Seng - very glad you came despite you busying with your exam preparation and reports. And I'm so glad to meet my primary school mates again and that we had a chance to have a gathering the following night - I get to contact the others again after 9 years of losing contact.hehe. On the other hand, I'm pretty upset many of my secondary school mates couldn't make it...hmm..but nevermind. We'll meet up someday.

The very next day, i had lunch with Ziling and Peay - again brought them to Food Foundry (gosh..i just like the cake) and at night, i was in Wong Kok Char Chan Teng - gathering with my primary school mates. Darn, that glass of Milk Tea was so huge ( you guys can view it in facebook).

Thank you all for the presents - I like them all very much. Thanx to all who wished me. Appreciate it very much.

My birthday wish...Its not exactly a birthday wish but its just one simple wish that i wish for everyday. You know it. =)

Missed out too many

2008-10-27T21:01:00.004+08:00

I missed out too many posts already...ahh..and I'm too lazy to get back to it..

Was really busy the past few weeks. It was a battlefield on my table - assignments, projects and more datelines to meet, I've really got no time to blog any about anything. I delayed and now...don't have the mood to blog about it anymore. What's important is, it definitely remains a memory. Whoever I've gone out with, celebrated with and so forth...thanx so much. Bet we had a great time huh..

Anyway, now that everything is done and finish, I'm extremely glad exam is next week. It marks the end of this tough term..This semester is dramatic. Too many had happened and I hope my results will be alrite. *Fingers crossed*

I'm hyperactive today and i felt a bit weird too...

R&I fest 08 just ended today...

A relief to everyone i suppose.. Congrats to all the winners and..yea though my group didn't win, we are neither disappointed nor demotivated, but in fact we're hoping to make a come back next year..hehe. All the best to ourselves. I think, its hard to visualized our product because we are in the idea category, so we'll try to work out the product and join the product category next time. I think its a good exposure.. I've learned quite a bit from it and I'm glad we joined.. At least we know whats the criteria and things like that.. Its an experience. Right, i took many pictures today.. Like i said, i'm on the hyperactive side..both happy and excited. but I'll post the pictures next time..

Test 2

2008-10-11T23:57:00.007+08:00

Guess I'm the heroin of the day... =P

While everyone else was studying last night, i was down with a fever, but yea i did my revision too, looking through the book and formulas and half my mind was somewhere else..About 10 plus last night, I was already in bed, and all the others were still with their books..I woke up this morning at 6am to find my roomie already at her desk, studying..and I studied too, as planned but just for HALF HOUR. Then back to slumber-land. hehe..I still had slight fever.. Guess what happens today??..My guess is, I'm finished. The weirdest part is, I'm not worried at all.

Maybe the test isn't something so important to me this time...Its sort of prepared for.
