Boring Classes Provoke Creativity :)

2011-04-04T21:03:00.007+08:00

You know how torturing it can be when u're in some boring class n waiting for the time to pass.

This was exactly what i encountered in today Credit Man's class.

The lectures were severely boring becuz of the lecturer's monotone voice.

Sometimes I'm not even sure that he has finished his sentence onot (keeps talking Bla-Bla-Bla).

I usually end up doodling over the entire class hour like this one.

Did the same again in Credit class today.

The lecture just damn boring to the extent that all my creativity had been provoked.

Share wif u some of my so-called artistic drawing I doodled today:

Inspired by the recent famous game - Angry Bird.

Turns out, sometimes it can be a Happy Bird too :p

Go Go Power Ranger!!!

I miss those days when Power Ranger conquered the kids world.

It may be very shallow, but when i was a kid, i just loved it to death.

Yeah baby, so nostalgic!!!

To match the rangers, here come the modern version sailormoon.

Lastly the passionate doodle:

Love feels right when u meet the right person :)

Another lame post, LOL.

Once upon a Prom

2011-03-27T19:03:00.028+08:00

Whenever frens of mine from other UNIs mention the words - Prom/Course Nite, i would automatically pull a face.

This is simply becuz I hadnt been to one b4.

Much to my delight, last 2 weeks, I finally got the chance to go to Prom.

It was organized collectively by a group of students from tradewinds (if i'm not mistaken).

There isnt any theme for the prom i guess, just got to know it's a masquerade, so I supposed we have to wear a mask or sth.

For the event, we paid RM65 each person.

Quite costly rite! but no surprise, inflation again.

Wat to do?

I already in my last semester, and this is like the oni chance i have to go to a prom and brag abt it infront of my snobbish frens mentioned earlier.

Considering losing face is a very important issue in my culture (LOL),

I just followed my gang and went for it.

Prom Menu~~more like chinese style, so are the performance.

During the game session between the Prom King n Queen nominees.

Keith and his partner.

and some ridiculous pics of us with the mask.

Pic #1:

Hami n I.

What conclusion can u draw from Pic #1?

Answer: People get more handsome with the mask on :p

Pic #2:

Again, people get prettier with the mask on.

Just teasing, she doesnt look bad without mask:

Bee and her lovely roommate-XinYee.

Pic #3:

The infamous Don Juan-4.

In cantonese, we call this 4-Ham-Sap-Lou.

Pic #5:

Group photo of us with mask on.

Xin Yee obviously knows how to steal the spotlight,

she's fitting in by standing out with that Fugly mask, LOL.

Of course there are other regular pics of me and my coursemates:

Here we are, sitting at the same table :)

The indian guy standing behind was the emcee that nite.

He is definitely one of the emcees that u can find in this uni that rocks and doesnt suck.

The pretty and handsome Financiers~~all final year students.

Time really flies! and my last semester felt particular fast.

Cant believe I'm gonna say GOODBYE to all these fabulous people i met in this uni soon :((

Prom King & Queen of the nite:

wouldnt care much cuz I dont know either one of them, lol.

Personally, I would dub these two "The Prom King & Queen".

Just like the young version of Hugh Hefner with the bombshell:)

I wish I had VODKA right now

2011-03-01T00:43:00.003+08:00

Roomate's asleep.

Drinking a full glass of wine that I smuggled into UUM.

Strangely enuf, I cant feel the alcohol at all.

I guess the 14% alcohol is not strong enuf to discard the unhappiness.

I wish I had Vodka right now.

Can no longer contain the unhappiness, feel like spilling it all out by tonight.

Somehow, "it" is taxing.

Very taxing, so much so that I feel like I'm being suffocated by my own world.

I wish I could turn back time.

To the days when ......

Hope to c this couple tie the knot soon.

Hallelujah

2011-01-02T00:30:00.006+08:00

Even though I'm not a christian or any of those things, I love gospel music.

Is it strange?

Well, maybe u might think so.

But personally I think good music should be accessible to everyone regardless of religion or any other concerns.

(I might just be enjoying the music and not paying much attention to the lyric)

I'm not sure how many versions of "Hallelujah" are out there, but to me, this is the best version I have ever heard so far.

Love the way Alexandra sings this song, kinda sad but at the same time full of hope and zest and so powerful.

Lastly, ENJOY THIS SONG!

:) & :( about Singapore!

2010-12-21T23:38:00.089+08:00

As the old saying goes, time flies when you're having fun.

That had definitely been the case for us at Singapore.

My frens & I had been planning for this budget trip over half a year oredy. (What a shame it took so long)

So glad we finally fulfilled our travel dream again in this December without breaking our bank or our sanity. HuHu!

In this post, you'll come across these two emoticons :) & :( quite often, which i 'll use to work out my very own "emoticon rating".

(The # of emoticons will show the amount of my likes and dislikes about certain things I saw/encountered in Singapore.)

Merlion, mythical symbol of Singapore :):):)

Basically this is a 2 days trip.

With such a short trip we had to wander around Singapore rather quickly.

Just glad that everything turned out alright in the end.

The very first thing we did after getting off the bus is find our way to our one night's accomodation in Bugis.

Group Photo in front of The InnCrowd Backpacker Hostel where we spent a good stay.

Tables of Ang mohs having beer came into sight when we got in there.

It's quite awkward in the beginning cuz the place truly seemed like a hostel owned by a genuine backpacker for only genuine backpackers.

And we all looked like some kind of intruders when we walked in there.

Main reason booking this hostel in the first place was due to the damn cheap price - SGD 22 per night. (Trust me, this is already the cheapest rate out there during this festive month of Dec.)

Anyway we survived the intriguing stares from the Angmohs and the biatch receptionist (would mention this biatch again later).

Had a good nite though in the Dorm #4.

Everything there was kind of homey.

You can tell from the pics below: Dun we look like having breakfast at home?

All in all,

Emoticon Rating for the Inncrowd Backpackers Hostel:

:) :) :)

In Singapore we almost entirely travelled by public transprt.

People always tell me that Singapore has the most remarkable and efficient public transport system in the world.

Having ridden the MRT and the bus in Singapore, the claim has been justified.

The MRT and buses are super punctual, efficient, esp the buses :) :) :) :) :)

Four to six minutes for each train/bus to show up, definitely beat the shit out of our "oh-so-proud" rapid KL and LRT/Monorail.

The only thing I dislike about MRT is that I dun understand why the hell we have to have a SGD1 deposit on the card.

I know the ex-link card system is a very convenient and cheap way of travelling around Singapore, but as a tourist who just stay here for 2 days, I dun think ex-link is my decent choice.

That's why we chose to buy the temporary cards which we have to deposit to get the SGD1 back at the end of our journey.

Here it is, the MRT Ticketing Machine where u can get back ur deposit here,

Freaking MAFAN :( :( :( :(

After checking into our hostel we took the MRT to the Marina Bay.

To me, Marina Bay is like the landmark capital of Singapore.

You can find all those skyscrapers within vicinity at Marina Bay area.

To name a few:

1.The Esplande

The durian shaped building is mainly a performing art center plus a mix of offices, apartments, and shopping complex (if i'm not mistaken).

Inside there, we saw gospel choir performing christmas songs and teenagers practising dance.

A place full of vibe and energy :) :)

2. Merlion Park

Taking fancy photo with the lion-fish is a must do :)

A miniature of the Merlion :)

3. Fullerton Hotel

Can you tell this is a 5-star hotel?

Rather surprised when Amerie told me this former general post office is now an extravagant 5-star hotel.

Somehow the hotel looks kinda striking sitting understatedly amongst many other modern skyscrapers at the Marina Bay area.

This made me kinda curious what it might look like interiorly.

Perhaps it has ceiling encrusted with precious stones or even glimmering floors covered with gold, hope to get rich someday soon and spend a night at this hotel :)

4. Marina Bay Sand

The massive entertainment and casino complex - Marina Bay Sands Resort & Casino is AWESOME! :) :) :) :) :)

Both architecture and interior design of Marina Bay Sands is truly worth mentioning.

The spectacular, flamboyant and unique architecture/interior design really blew me away.

Let the pics do the talking:

The 3 level shoppes have many brands of fashion I havn't seen in M'sia b4 :) :)

Stairlike 3D architecture :) :)

This aluminium sculpture is like glittering water flowing when the wind blows. Breathtaking! :) :) :)

We didnt spend much time admiring all those spectacular art architecture.

straightly headed to the casino to have our dinner n try our luck, hehe :)

Group Photo in front of the Marina Bay Sands Casino

After the Marina Bay walking tour, we took the bus to Orchard Road.

Our main reason for visiting Singapore in the first place is seeing Christmas illumination in Orchard Road.

As it turns out, the illuminations aren't as inspiring/fascinating as I thought it would be.

Glad we made the decision to visit Singapore days b4 christmas, cuz the street was oredy freaking congested with people when we got there, let alone on Christmas Day.

Anyhow, we ignored the crowd and happily do our fancy photos with the christmas deco n lights.

Check ur surroundings b4 taking a pic.

Illuminated Christmas Tree :) :) :)

Group Photo again on the Orchard RD.

We LV to pose

undoubtedly.

Freaking tired after walking down the entire Orchard Road.

Took the MRT back to Bugis and spent a good nite at the hostel.

Next morning, the very first thing we did after having our free breakfast was google to find ways to travel to Sentosa.

Snapped the map on the computer screen and walked to the right bus stop according to it.

We just waited for the right buses and hopped onto one of them.

Everything is so easy to refer and even if you can't figure out the bus route map at the bus stop, u can ask any of the bus drivers that stop by. :) :)

It took us half an hour to get to Sentosa.

First thing first, we wandered around Vivo city, Singapore largest shopping mall.

I always had this fantasy that Singapore is a place full of hip pretties and handsomes.

Girls would deck out in the most hip outfit and always put on extreme makeup and striking hair style like the famous blogger Xia Xue.

Much to my disappointment, I had yet to come across any hip pretties, not even at the Singapore largest shopping mall :(

We headed to Sentosa by monorail after an hour walk around Vivo.

We hurried through the 4 stations in Sentosa and at last headed to our last destination - Resort World Casino.

U must think I am some kind of compulsive gambler, i bet u do.

But the truth is, I just went in there to taste the not-so-bad coffee and accompannied my frens who wanna try their luck in there.

Grab some photos of the Universal Globe b4 entering the casino.

The so-called 2 days trip officially ended when we finally got on the bus heading back to KL in the evening.

LOVE Singapore for its cleanliness and efficiency :) :) :)

Nonetheless, there is one thing i wanna complain abt Singapore,

the people there are kinda haughty :( :( :( :(

A great example is the biatch receptionist i met in the backpackers hostel.

The rude incident took place when I was asking the receptionist to pass me back my HP (which I left to charge at the counter since the hostel doesn't allow double plug).

The biatch got a little antsy when handing me my HP.

Then when I wanna pass my other fren's HP to charge, she gave me a rather FIERCE stare and said " Can u just give me your phones all in one go?"

Freaking RUDE :( :( :( :(

(Felt like slapping her in the face at that moment)

Anyway, exclude the biatch incident, our budget trip this time is truly a big success.

Definitely will plan another budget "backpacker" trip again next time.

Top 5 after Famine 30

2010-08-22T14:47:00.021+08:00

If i'm not mistaken, it's been 7 months since I last updated this godforsaken blog.

Always wanted to post sth regarding my holiday anecdotes, for some reasons, I didnt.

This time, the very reason that drove me to write this blog entry was simply to share the good experience of participating in 30-Hour Famine Camp.

Frankly speaking, my initial purpose of joining this camp was merely to take up the challenge of fasting for 30 hours.

Nth more than that.

And people just kept giving me the same kinda reactions whenever I told them I was going to this camp.

Jaw-dropping, eyebrow-raising, and as always, the intriguing question:

OMG, you're already so freaking skinny, why would u do that to urself?

And as always, I would give the SUPER fake answer:

To help the children.

(Usually I would end up getting beat up by the inquirer. LOL.)

Anyway, this camp turned out to be quite an experience and also an enlightenment to me.

I hav to say fasting isnt as hard as it seems/sounds to be. It had been interesting (since it was my first time), sometimes annoying, sometimes downright tiring, but overall interesting.

The camp was so packed with games, performance and video sharing.

The time just flew like no one's business, even the feeling of hunger was no longer there.

(The oni group photo I grabbed from FB. Havnt taken others from frens.)

The slogan for the 30-Hour Famine is "Light up their Life". In chinese, it is "to create no poverty city for the kids".

Apparently, it wasnt sth I expected/intended to do when i first joined this camp.

But in the end, it did change my mindset a bit on this whole helping-kids-concept.

I was so moved by the video played during the video sharing session.

Its definitely gonna be on my list of top 5 touching tear-jerkers.

Now u get why the subject line? hahah, pretty lame.

And TADA,

here is my latest list of TOP 5 Touchin' Tear-Jerkers:

#5:

Liu Li Interview On Nu Yu's Talk Show!

Here she is, Liu Li, the lady who had changed my perception about sponsoring a child.

I was trying to hold back my tears when I was watching this interview.

She is just amazing.

(Google her if u wanna find out her story)

(Incidentally, RM50 to sponsor a child, considerably cheap rite?

Again, this is gonna sound cheesy, like I'm trying to be Mister Malayisa, but perhaps, perhaps I would sponsor one when I start working in the future.)

#4:

Aftershock (movie)

a bit boring in the beginning,

but man, it gets darned moving at the end.

The most touching scene is undoubtedly the one where the mother kneels down in front of the daughter and asking for apology.

Sounds absurd but u would know the reason why the mother did so if u watch the entire movie.

#3:

A thousand Splendid Suns(Book)

Khaled tells us a story of two Afghanistan women and their struggles for lives in a society that thinks they should not live.

I was entirely engulfed in the lives of the characters,

and literally shed tears, as Mariam's being executed.

The flash back memories are plain tragic and painful.

Highly recommended by Jacoby!

#2:

My Sister's Keeper (Movie)

Got this movie from a fren.

Good recommendation.

For me, the adaptation is better than the book.

The heartwrenching scene tt got me weeping:

Kate asks Anna to do one last favor for her,

(Sisi, can u do me a favor?)

and it is sue for emancipation,

bcuz she believes she will die anyway.

One word~~SAD!

#1:

Japanese Drama: One Litre of Tears

In cases like mine, its difficult for a drama to make me shed tears in multiple scenes.

And yet One Litre of Tears made me shed more tears than I had for any other movie/drama/book.

The drama targets at ur tear ducts heartlessly, it might as well sponsored by Kleenex.

That's why this drama has always topped my list.

Allah would punish you!!!

2010-01-09T14:47:00.003+08:00

It's a shock to me when I read the newspaper today.

Churches being burnt because of a small issue - the "Allah" controversy.

Evidently, we all know who commited the act of barbarism.

Those morons (or perhaps we could call them Swaang-avatar language) have never thought about other people's feeling.

All they care about is upholding the usage of the name-Allah, but, as a matter of a fact, they dun even bother to follow what the Allah has asked them to do.

So easily to be influenced by what they listen without thinking.

Mayb that's the reason why we call them "Swaang".

One of my christian fren told me that every cloud has a silver lining, behind every misery, is a blessing.

The few million losses due to the incident is nothing if it contributes to a change of government come next election.

And it's true.

With all the incidents that we had witnesses (for eg-cow head protest), no serious attempts have been made by our government to ensure the matters are adequately handled.

Do we really need a plan called - One Malaysia, which in truth has made no difference to the country?

It's truly a good topic to debate over.

We chatted vigorously on this topic for what seem like hours.

Cursing those swaang and blaming the government...

Even its about time to get ready for ko-k, we're still msn-chatting.

Huh, what a day to skip KO-K.

Finally, to those "Swaang",

ALLAH WOULD DEFINITELY PUNISH YOU

for what u hav done.

Langkawi sucks

2009-12-10T19:39:00.013+08:00

Langkawi sucks!

The oni thing I like about this trip is the fact that I can hang out with my frens.

I dun wanna write an entry that just badmouth this tourist destination, cuz recently i just complained a lot.

Instead of showing vanilla photos like one of these:

I am going to make this a laughable blog post that could make me laugh when I read it again someday in the future.

So, I would let the following funny pictures do the talking:

A pic called "U R NOT ALONE"

Just to be clear, this wasnt taken in 1960.

It reminds me of OKU.

"Who r u kidding!? Mine is bigger than urs"

I'm sorry for the loss of ur "father".

A pajmena beauty!?

Turns out, just an ordinary boy who desperately need a facial plastic surgery.

Night at the Casino

2009-11-25T14:19:00.004+08:00

I bet you have already watched "Night at the Muzeum".

People claim that this is a great movie.

Well, this claim hasnt been justified, (since i havnt watched it yet)

but what has been justified is that "Night at the Casino" is quite remarkable.

As a 21-yr-old, I just had my first-time try at wagering (my lecturer, madame khaw claimed this is a better word to use than Gambling) in Genting Highland last nite.

Imagined the first time I stepped into a casino on my own, without any purpose of work, it is a bit overwhelming.

Finally, I can give the guards in the front door of the casino a oh-so-proud glance.

Despite I know the fact that statistically the house has an edge, I just wanna go there and try it at least once.

It just makes me feel so adult-like.

And I'm glad I did it last night. Hahaha...

Though my frens and I did lose some money last night, I'm still glad we had our first try.

Since we all were considered rookies, we had to learn all the "rules and regulations" from the scratch.

The learning process was a thrill and full of laughter.

Here is one of the embarrassing moments.

At the pontoon table, I kept hearing some aunties screaming out the same cantonese dirty word - "67" everytime the dealer draws a card.

At first, I was like "Wah, these aunties are rude!".

Apparently I was wrong.

When I asked my fren why they are so rude, she told me they were just saying "Picture",

and definitely not "67".

So embarrassed at that moment...

Embarrasing Story #2 is about my fren- B.

When we were about to start our first bet, we asked B to change money for chips at the Cashier Counter.

B totally obeyed us and went to the counter asking for changing for chips.

The worker stared at him with a puzzled look and said,

"What do u wanna change? You dun hav any chip"

Later on we were told tt we can change for chips in the gambling table, the cashier counter is only for cashing in chips.

Somehow five of us just couldnt stop acting silly in the casino.

Overall, it's a very good experience, but i just didnt see the real fun of wagering in the casino.

Just dun understand y those uncles aunties like to spend so much time wagering in there.

The place is filled with smoke and noise.

I got bored after playing the French Boule for just an hour.

Perhaps, it would be more exciting if all of my frens and I can sit at the same gambling table to play pontoon.

At least we can scream "Picture, Picture" together.

Footprints in the Sand.

2009-11-07T17:28:00.002+08:00

A song so special that I wanna share with u guys.

*WARNING: It might trigger the sadness over losing a loved one and bring tears to ur eyes.

prepare the tissue.

How can they cancel Beyonce!?

2009-10-21T11:30:00.003+08:00

I'm so frigging angry with the whole Beyonce-postponed-concert thing.

The concert organizers said that the postponement is solely the decision of the artist and has nothing to do with other external reasons.

Oh, come on!

We all know this is all becuz of those stupid concervative people, who r so free to keep banning this and banning that.

Well, if they are really that outraged at the prospect of watching a pretty young woman shake her scantily-clad body on the stage,

why dun they just stay away from the concert and stop KACAU-KACAU.

There are still people out there like me, who would be glad to watch this kinda show.

Furthermore, if the young people in this country is so unstable and easily to be influenced, then I think these concervative people should have done a lot more of works in other fields, and certainly not to protest against a fantastic concert like this one.

Really Diu-Na-Sing with these people.

Even our neighbour Indonesia is ok with the morale standard of Beyonce's concert,

but why is it so difficult for us to accept this?

I guess somewhere out there, some people must be cursing these conservative people like what i'm doing right now.

Luckily the concert ticket could still be refunded.

And the only problem left is my two way bus tickets...but i guess those two tickets are non refundable.

HAIZZZ...

BAD LUCK...BAD LUCK

Sabah + Convo

2009-10-15T21:49:00.022+08:00

This month is gonna a bc month!

I just got back from Sabah and now I hav to prepare for my final.

I always seem to scramble for time whenever exam approaches.

This time, I told myself that if I manage to do whatever I've planned to do,

this month is gonna be bananahamic!

Let me just briefly talk about what I've done these four days in Sabah.

The main purpose, of course is to attend my sister's convo.

3 and half yrs of studying, finally she graduated.

The happiest person is undoubtedly my father, who just finished second grade.

There she is, my sister who decked out nicely in her UMS branded robe.

After having seen both UUM and UMS convo, if u ask me which do u like more, I think I'm gonna have to go with UMS convo.

U would agree with me by simply looking at these two pics, not to mention the performance and their systematic arrangement.

uum's

ums'

Besides attending the convo, of course we took the opportunity to hit some of the hot spots in KK.

Hot Spot #1: Island/Beach

Manukan Island:

B4 heading to Manukan Island, we rented all those necessities in Jesselton.

Then we took a shuttle to Manukan Island.

What activities did we do?

Snorkelling

At night, we went to Tanjung Aru Beach:

Though it was the night time, I could vividly c the brown color waves crashing onto the beach.

Hot Spot #2 : Gaya Street

I really do think this is a great place to visit.

It's more or less the same as Petaling Street, the only thing different is the cleanliness and tidiness.

Gaya street is much cleaner and organized than Petaling Street.

Below are some of pics i took in Gaya Street:

Hot Spot # 3: Seafood Restaurant

(Huge sea shells at the entrance of the restaurant.)

I didnt remember the name of the restaurant.

Anyway, this restaurant wasn't really that good.

Among all the dishes we ordered, the only one that was considered "not bad" is the "Bak Quek Har" (prawn on the left hand side).

Others were so so-so.

The only flaw of this trip was that we dun get the chance to climb Gunung Kinabalu.

It is a bit like going to New York without climbing up to the Statue of Liberty.

Anyhow, I had a great during these four days in KK.

In the end, I just wanna say something to my sis.

To sis,

Happy Graduation Day!

(Supposedly I should snap one with all the hats floating in the air, but...)

I'm a PLASTIC bag!

2009-09-16T21:17:00.008+08:00

Kiehl's tries to tell Anya Hindmarch that when it comes to doing a good deed for our environment, plastic isn't neccesarily the enemy.

Well, this is what i read in the latest Kiehl's newsletter.

It's a bit appalling to me to read this in the first place.

Since public's consciousness of eco-frenly shopping has been raised by Anya Hindmarch in 2007, most of us take PLASTIC as our #1 enemy.

It took me half an hour to truly understand what's the ultimate motive behind this hype.

Obviously, this time around, recyling is no longer a hit.

Soon, upcycling is going to be all the rage.

This upcycling thing is actually the concept for this bag.

It encourages consumers to take something that is disposable and transform it into something of greater use and value.

And u only need to fork out RM28 to get this sturdy, utilitarian, eco-frenly bag, which is made from 100% recycled plastic bottles.

Honestly, I begin to like this kinda products.

Just like I'm-not-a-plastic-bag, this reusable Kiehl's bag combines fashion with the concept of eco-frenly.

It not only raises the awareness about importance of recycling/upcycling, but it also spread/upgrade the sense of fashion among the people.

So, while u r trying to be eco-frenly, u can also look fashionable.

This is certainly killing two birds with one stone...

Well done, Kiehl's!

Let it be...

2009-09-02T20:35:00.005+08:00

What would u feel after u have put so much effort into sth, but in the end it turns out to be nth?

I guess no one is more perfect than me to explain this feeling now.

Well, it is like...after taking tons of yogurt and banana, and yet u r still having really bad constipation.

It's a bad description but it really does convey my feeling right now.

I just screwed up my econometric midterm exam this morning.

And I feel really bad about it.

The reason i care so much about this paper is that I had studied this subject for almost four days.

4 days!

Didnt even care about the FMI exam at all.

My world just revolved around this damned subject during the last 4 days.

It turned out, days of hard work can't prevail against one silly step.

Huh!

I guess the only way for me to ease my "pain" now is to keep on whispering words of wisdom:

Let it be,

Let it be...

(u would definitely know what i mean if u hav listened to this song b4)

H1N1 hits UUM!!!

2009-07-27T13:49:00.008+08:00

A historical day!

For both UUM and me.

This is the first time I encountered such a happening in my life.

I think u oredy knew it from the title of this entry.

H1N1 is attacking UUM!

Yesterday, my dear Uni has announced to suspend all classes and student activities for six days from today following the high number of students with mild H1N1 symptoms.

Following the announcement, there was a slight riot going on in the entire Uni.

At first, I was quite enthusiastic about the forthcoming holidays.

6 days of holidays...wat should i do with it?

Apparently, there was no such thing called "what should i do with my 6 days holidays" for my other Uni frens.

They were so bc with packings, and ticket booking once they got informed about the news.

The rumour that everyone would be quarantined once the Uni has closed the front door at 6pm had definitely flustered everyone especially juniors.

Many of them followed the trend of leaving UUM.

They hadn't even booked the tickets and yet they just finished packing and fled from UUM.

The whole situation was like World War 2.

Everyone was so afraid of the Japanese Soldiers and did their best to flee the battle scene.

Likewise, in this case, Japanese soldiers were like H1N1 and battle scene was like UUM.

I was told that the uni made the decision of suspending classes after a large number of students were referred to the PKU with mild symptoms of the virus.

From my point of view, class suspension is a must.

And yet allowing the students to return home wasn't a good way to curb the spread of the flu.

Dun u think it will oni let the virus to spread even more rapidly?

If u have ever seen the doctor in PKU, u might know y the flu can spread out that rapidly and stealthily in UUM.

My previous experience tell me that the doctors in PKU are freaking damned irresponsible.

Their first question usually is "what kinda problems do u hav?",

and next, you can get ur butt out of that chair and wait outside to take your medicine.

And weeks ago, my roommate who had the flu went to c the doctor.

He told me that the doctor simply gav him some fever and flu medicine without having further check-up.

How the heck can the flu not even spread if the doctors act like this?

This time, I hav made the decision to stay bac in UUM.

Hopefully nothing bad will happen to me.

And to my frens out there, take care.

My Work Life at Padini Authentic!

2009-06-27T15:03:00.014+08:00

For the last 2 weeks and 3 days, I have been bc working at Padini Authentic in Genting Highland.

I have to admit that working as a sale promoter at PA (Padini Authentic) wasn't easy at all.

There are a hell of a lot of rules and regulations for the shop.

And the person in charge just couldn't stop asking me to give superior customer service to the incoming and outgoing customers.

Sometimes I felt my mouth didn't belong to me.

It just became "natural" for my mouth to pop out the words "Welcome" and "Thank You, Bye" whenever there is someone coming to or going out of the shop.

WARs always happen in here.

You will know exactly what i mean by "WARs" when you c me dealing with those Aunties.

To me, aunties are like TRANSFORMERS.

They will automatically transform into a horrifying DIGGING MACHINES whenever they approach the 50% Offer Bins.

They just can't help digging n digging the clothes until they find one to their liking.

Of course, I have to fold the clothes finely and quickly like a maniac.

The scene at the 50% offer bins is like the battlefield between Aunties and Sale Promoters.

Anyway, I learned something important from my working place.

That is how to be brave and confident to talk to someone.

I was demanded by the Person in Charge to introduce our clothing lines and promotions available to every customer.

You just can't be shy and gotta be brave to open you mouth to talk to the customers.

Confidence is essential,

especially when you are facing with the Singaporean customers.

They are really demanding and aren't afraid to complain whenever they find something unsatisfactory about the shop.

It's not easy to satisfy these customers, but the hard work really pay off when the customers smile back and say thank you to you.

As with any living and work environment change there are always tradeoffs.

This time, I lost my freedom in my work schedule, and the time to rest and sleep,

yet I gained new working experiences, and new colleagues and frens.

Below are some photos of my colleagues and friends:

Pic taken on my last day of work.

Farewell gathering: Chong, my humorous supervisor and Chi, my future junior in UUM.

Overall, I learned a lot during these 2 weeks++,

and now, I have to get ready to go bac to the forest.

My 3 Favourite Things about Kemaman!

2009-05-21T21:39:00.025+08:00

Last month, my sis got back from Sabah.

Coincidentally, my 2nd sis and I were in holidays too.

So, we (included my mum) decided to go for a short trip in Kemaman.

(For ur information, Kemaman is located in Terangganu)

It's been a long time since I visited Kemaman in Form 3 six yrs ago.

I found that things in here really havn't changed all that much.

I still can remember where my uncle's old house is.

Is that a sign of good memory or a sign of slow developement in Kemaman?

I'm not sure abt tt.

But what is certain is that I'm quite fond of this little town.

This town has its own "culture" and style of living.

Well, I like it bcuz :

firstly, the beach lifestyle over there.

Since Cherating Beach is quite near the town (within an hour drive of the town), the people here live a beach lifestyle.

Honestly, I quite keen on this kind of lifestyle.

U can go for a breezy walk, take a refreshing dip in the sea or even take a sunbath (if you think u r not tanned enuf) anytime u wan.

It has totally captured the Lifestyle of "The O.C.".

The only thing different perhaps is the cleanliness between the the O.C. Beach and the Cherating Beach.(Cherating Beach is not really clean.)

Anyway, here come the second thing I like about Kemaman,

the tea drinking habit.

Of course it's not the herbal tea I mean.

Drinking coffee is what I mean.

In Kemaman, you can see a lot of kopitiams,which most of them have same approach to the decoration, just like the Old Town's.

The Hai Peng,

It's like the Starbuck in Kemaman.

The place was congested with people when we arrived.

Seem like the business is running well in here.

You can see all these antique things inside the shop.

The creepy happening took place when I was walking towards the backyard to have a look at the small Great Wall.

Firstof all, you have to take a look at the picture below:

C the old man inside the picture?

Well, he is the one who freaked me out when I was walking towards the backyard.

Dun u think the poster has created an effect that make the old man seem like a late old man who had passed away centuries ago.

You know, the old man's just sitting right in front of the small Great Wall when I stepped into the backyard.

N I gave him a "Oh, My God! Did I just see a ghost?" reaction.

But...luckily soon I could prove he is a living person, cuz he just opened his mouth n talked to one of the workers there.

Sound really silly.

Anyway, the coffee there isn't good at all.

It can't mention in the same breath as the coffee you find in Bentong.

I would rather recommend Kemaman Station (the other kopitiam in Kemaman) instead of Hai Peng.

I just dun understand why Hai Peng is so famous in Kemaman.

The third, which is oso the last thing I like about Kemaman is the seafood cook here.

Just let the following pics talk:

Best crab I ever ate.

Tom Yam Fish.

Fish Mee.

They wont look delicious, but trust me, they really tasted good.

Jai Ho!

2009-05-12T17:03:00.009+08:00

I just finished my 2nd sem.

It seems so fast and I thought I will be rather busy after that.

Apparently, I was wrong.

Finding work in Bentong is as hard as giving birth.

Meeting with continual rejection make me so frustrated.

Sometimes I feel like slapping the face of the employer when the words " Sorry, there's no vacancy at this time" popped out from the employer's mouth.

Fortunately, my self control is so strong that I can help doing that.

Unemployment, sliding fund price, boring n dull lifestyle...

Is that what a recession means?

(I think "Yes")

OMG, I cant believe all these things happen to me.

What should I do?

Oh, no, I'm not going to be beaten down by this kinda situation.

I think what i need to do is keep on finding,

otherwise just stay at home, meet some old frens, do some reading ( what i call "invest in yourself"), o mayb join Auntie Soh on some boring meetings (which could be "fun" n meaningful), n wait until the opening of the new sem.

BTW, not forgetting to sing,

Jai Ho!

(May victory be yours!)

Spring Festival 2009

2009-03-20T18:23:00.018+08:00

Spring Festival Show took place in 16th of March 2009 in Dewan Mas.

Honestly, I was quite eager and had high expectation for the Spring Fest Show since the Moonfest Charity Show 2008 was so well done.

However, this time it turned out to be quite a let-down.

It's not like the show is really terrible, but it's just not as entertaining as the Moonfest Show 2008.

I think the the emcees have to bear some responsibility for the "failure" of the show.

I mean, the emcees really suck like leeches.

They kept on saying something ridiculous and sometimes I just couldn't help laughing out.

The most ridiculous gaffe happened when we're going to sing the University Song - Biru Warna.

One of the emcees dared to "memohon" the audience to "duduk" when it came to singing the University Song.

Perhaps, they should read the book - HOW NOT TO BE SUCK AS AN EMCEE.

Other than that, the show seemed to lack variety on the performances.

The emcees had gone on stage to perform for so many times.

Maybe The Spring Fest 2009 should be renamed to "The Emcees Concert 2009".

Anyway, there are some performances that I quite like, for eg, Human Pyramid Performance, Girs Peforming Hiphop dance and the drama show.

(Sorry lazy to upload the pics)

By the way, there's still another ridiculous thing I havn't mentioned.

It's about the lucky draw prize.

On tt night, one of the lucky draw winners was my roommate - Keong.

Guess what did he get?

A basket of woman things: Toner, Breast Enhancement Soap and last but not least,

the Vagina Spray!

It's damned funny.

I mean,

KEONG has a penis,

What the hell is he supposed to do with that vagina spray?

Happy Graduation!

2009-03-15T12:02:00.005+08:00

Btw, sorry I can't attend ur convo, but I'm very happy for u guys.

p/s, Dun forget to treat me a big meal after getting ur first pay.

Education in Malaysia Has Given Them A Lot of Trouble!

2009-03-08T13:04:00.006+08:00

Last two weeks, when I was checking out my Facebook recent happening, someone's recent status caught my attention.

It's my good friend, Herman who would start his first sem on 23th of February in Lim Kok Weng University of Creative Technology.

The other two of my good friends, Andy and Pui would also start their first sem in February in Segi College.

Actually, they were my Form6 classmates who had had no "luck" to be chosen to study in local university.

Luck is definitely the right word to be used to describe their situation at the time.

Why do I say so?

It's becuz of the education sytem tt we hav in our country, which will always be directly associated with the quota system once we mention our "highly praised Education System".

Well, I know it's a sensitive issue to talk about.

So, I will only lightly talk about my own experience with regards to what I hav encountered in my U.

Here is the case:

Last sem, one day during my Managerial Math class, when we were all doing our math exersice, one guy who was sitting in front of me, suddenly turned his back on me and asked me,

"Bang, bagaimana nak selesai bahagian ini?"

The question that he asked me was merely about "i+3i" is equal to wat.

Obviously, he and his friends dunno how to do it so the guy had to ask others.

I'm neither exaggerating the case nor showing off, the question's really a form 4 level question and he should know it before he entered the U.

Different kind of feelings got to me at the time,

I'm shocked for being asked a damned simple question,

I'm wondering why my friends, Herman, Andy and Pui who hav all these math knowledge at their fingertips, failed to get to local university,

I'm angry at the goddamn education system that only cares for the "majority" and treats others like shit.

I mean, this quota system has truly become the main stumbling block in efforts towards fostering a national identity.

Evidently, the guy, who asked me the question, is one of those "lucky" majority.

As a polite, educated person, I'm glad that at that moment, I could help replying,

"Dik, ini pun tak tahu buat ka? Bgmn mu dapat masuk ke U".

I know three of my friends had gone through a really baaaaaad patch during those time when they're waiting for the private U intake.

They worked as a temporary teachers in order to save some money for their very expensive future college costs.

They put in a great deal of effort to search for the rite private college & to apply for the scholarship and PTPTN things.

The process isn't as easy as I thought it would be since everything would be done by themselves, not by Faci.

Among three of them, Herman is the one who I think, had worked the hardest.

He really worked his ass off to apply for his HOPE scholarship and PTPTN education loan.

Making thousand of calls to PTPTN counter, attending the HOPE scholarship interview alone...I'm just very impressed by what he had done for himself and wanna giv him a big thumbs up.

Lastly, I just wanna say,

I'm very very very PROUD of u guys.

Finally u guys hav made it.

Triple Kill the Goddamn Broodmothers!

2009-02-28T18:40:00.009+08:00

If you aren't a Dota player, probably you wont get what the title means.

Ok, let me explain,

Broodmother is actually one of the Dota Heroes.

In fact, it can be rather redoubtable if the player is really good at using this hero.

I admit I would be quite happy if I were assigned to use this hero.

However, when it comes to reality, it's a totally different story.

I HATE SPIDER.

Unfortunately, my hostel room is full of this kind of goddamn creature.

It's just very unpleasant to sit or study under these spiders.

Let hav a look at my very nauseating "roommates":

Ain't they big and disgusting?

It's not enough, let look at the spiderlings:

What a big family. n they look very creepy...

If you look carefully, actually you can see all these poor little things getting caught in the spiderweb.

Having seen them everyday within these few months made me become sick of them.

I just couldn't stand it anymore.

So, today, I became rather determined to get rid of all these spiders.

With the help of my "weapon" - a wet mop, I swept it across the spiderweb to clean up the web.

At the same time, I did need to aim nicely at the spiders in order to squash and kill them.

It took me almost one hour to kill all these spiders.

Huh!

All my hard works really paid off,

becuz finally my hostel room turned out to be :

It might look a bit messy on the tables, but at least there are nth hanging on the ceiling anymore and it look clean.

Most importantly, I can bid my ever nauseating "roommates" an everlasting GOODBYE.

Congratulate me!

Dragonball - Evolution o Devolution?

2009-02-22T17:23:00.011+08:00

I know many of the anime fans have been very excited about the forthcoming live action movie - DragonBall Evolution.

If I'm not mistaken, the anime series were played on NTV7 or TV2 every Saturday or Sunday.

I admit that I was a huge fan of Dragonball when I was a little kid.

Yet, my previous experiences tell me that any adaptation will suck.

So, I'm less than esthused about the forthcoming movie adaptation.

Having seen the poster of the movie, my precognition has been justified :

Look at the so-called Goku:

Wearing the same costume doesn't mean that they just look alike.

In the cartoon series, Goku does have a considerable amount of muscle, but this guy, come on, he doesn't even seem like working out to play the role.

The so-called Bulma pula:

She just doesn't look like the iconic blue hair character in the anime.

The worst part of the movie is master Roshi:

I'm sorry to say that, Uncle Yun Fatt, you look too young and serious to portray the role.

The role Master Roshi should be played by someone who looks a bit like a lecherous old man.

Definitely not by someone with that serious-looking face.

Overall, I can't really tell how the movie is going to be since I havn't watched the movie yet.

What I can tell is that the characters are really a mess-up.

Interesting Question 4 Discussion

2009-02-17T00:02:00.004+08:00

Interesting question for discussion:

IF someone’s intestines are protruding from an open abdominal wound, should you:
A. Put them back in place.
B. Do nothing.
C. Cover them with some kind of container and fasten it around the body.

The above is not any biological exam question, but is one of the 100 questions that locals and foreigners alike could find on China’s written driver’s licence exam.

By the way, let me reveal the answer now - "C".

So, how do you find the China's written driver's license exam?

Really "INTERESTING", rite?

Somehow it has become common to see all these creepy odd things happening in China.

Dun be so surprised about it.

After all, it's just another one to add to the "Creepy Odd Happenings in China" List.

Perfume

2009-02-14T18:27:00.015+08:00

Yesterday was a dizzy day.

On doing my BLM exam, I encountered a dilemma.

It wasn't about the difficulty factor of the questions.

Let me just use the illustrations below to describe my dilemma at that time:

Basically, I was surrounded by three malay girls, A, B, &C.

At first, I was so energetic and couldn't wait to get the paper done.

However, soon after the exam started, I could smell trouble next to me.

It was the A malay girl, who had put on tons of bad perfume which smelled like she scrubbed herself with a moldy lemon.

It really gave me a big HEADACHE which nearly made me pass out.

I mean, an examination room isn't a suitable place for such olfactory violent.

Luckily I was strong enough to sustain myself to finish my paper.

Putting on wrong perfume is usually a common mistake that young people make.

They tend to use the wrong perfume or use the perfume wrongly.

So, plz make a study of it b4 you start to wear it.

Actually, perfume is just a mixture of essential oil and aroma compounds and solvent.

In a strange way, it is described in a musical metaphor as having three sets of 'notes'.

*Top notes : The scents that can be sensed immediately on application of a perfume.

*Middle notes : The scent that emerges when the top notes have dissapeared.

*Base notes: The scent of a perfume that appears after the departure of the middle notes.

Usually, sth that smells soft like citrus will be used as top notes whereas sth that smells heavy like sandalwood will be used as base notes.

The A malay girl probably made a mistake by putting on too much perfume since she only smells the top notes when she was spraying the perfume.

Besides, perfume can be divided into :

Usually, the many types of perfume that u c on the market are Eau De Paefum and Eau De Toillete.

You should choose the right perfume according to ur age, budget and place to attend.

From a man's perspective, I think a young lady should choose to use a perfume that is soft, nature, sweet and sexy.

Dun choose sth that is designed for the 30to40-year-old, like Chanel no.05.

Reaching age 20, many of my friends have already started to use perfume.

Most of them smells like… what girls should smell like naturally!

Just fresh, and clean,

(Well done, girls!)

and they really owe their good-smelling to the perfume below:

The one that I like to smell most is the iconic unisex fragrance CK one.

The many editions of CK one:

The latest ck one relaunched on January 20 (the same day as Obama’s inauguration).

That's how it looks:

I have to say that this is the most natural perfume that I have ever smelled.

The other one that the girls like most is Anna Sui Dolly Girl Perfume:

My friend, Celine who is a Die Hard "Dolly Girl" Fan, says that the pink doll smells the lightest, the white doll smells moderate and the blue doll smells the heaviest.

Though it's a bit scary to look at the dolls, they smell good.

So, for the sake of MEN HEALTH,

ladies,

Plz choose the right PERFUME that suits you the most.

My New Hairstyle

2009-02-09T23:02:00.011+08:00

Ladies & Gentlemen,

What u r going to c is my recent "EXTREME" makeover.

Before u hav a look at my recent pic, let me tell you first what made me come to a decision to do this makeover.

Well, there are 2 major reasons.

First of all, it's my ever disturbing FRINGE.

My fringe just kept bothering me and I always have to comb my hair with my five fingers to be like a side fringe.

Lately, I found it hasn't been working out for me.

So, on 1st of Feb, I made a BRAVE by cutting my beggar-liked hair off before i went back to UUM.

The second reason is my mother, who kept muttering at me and urging me to cut my hair off.

It's just very annoying that finally, I couldn't take it anymore.

So, I headed to Joy Salon and asked the barber to do sth with my hair.

At last, I walked out from the shop looking like this:

Sorry, wrong pic, should be this one :

So, what do u think about my new hairstyle?

During these few days, I hav been critisized by almost everyone I met.

Some said I look like:

A Wang/Roger Kwok (Pic from the TVB drama - Life Made Simple)

Sometimes, I do really think I look like him when facing the mirror.

some said I look like:

a handsome from China whose name is Xiao Chen.

Honestly, he is far handsome than me.

We have nothing in common except the chopped bangs.

By the way, to those who said I look like:

FxxK YOU

Lastly, I strongly recommend this hairstyle to those who r having problems with their fringe.

It has become much eaaaaaaaaaaaaaaasier for me to manage my hair now.

Cho 1,2 & 3

2009-02-06T22:58:00.011+08:00

During these three days, my daily schedules were more o less the same – paying CNY calls/ Bai Nian.

One of the main fun of paying a CNY call is having chances to taste all these tasty stuff like pineapple tarts, nga-gu chips, honey-almond cookies…which you can only see/taste it once in a year.

Since all these “precious” cookies in my house had been “reserved” to serve guests, on paying CNY calls, I didn’t hold back from eating these cookies at a mouthful.

Sound discourteous, but that’s the unedited side of my personality, a serious food fanatic.

At Cho 3, I attended my once-in-a-year “Primary School Gathering” which was organized by Ah Bee this year.

At first, we intended to dine at Bentong Restaurant.

However, the poor service of the restaurant let us down badly as it failed to offer us a table by the time we reached there, though we had booked a table at Cho 2.

We had no alternative but to choose to dine at Kristal Restaurant.

Another Lao Shang, it seems Bentong people like to Lao Shang very much.

During the Lao Shang, it was funny to hear the girls saying: Marry the Wealthy!

Mun Nyee couldn't help serving everybody continously.

No wonder she likes to work in GICC as a waitress.

Kah Woon with the fish.

She is a damn funny girl.

I just can't help laughing everytime she says something.

5 Fu

There were merely 11 of us (former classmates) attending the gathering.

The others either went bac to work or went back to study.

Rumor has it that the food of Kristal Restaurant is very very bad.

I think it’s time for me (as a consumer) to clarify the rumor.

And I have to day, Yes, the rumor is true.

The food there is terrible.

Trust me, don’t go there for dining if you come to Bentong.

Try Bentong Restaurant or even Chi Wei Xian.

Personally, I think Bentong Restaurant is quite ok cuz I attended both my cousin’s wedding and Form 6 gathering in Bentong Restaurant at Cho 2.

The food there didn’t disappoint me though there were tons of people dining at the restaurant during Cho 2.

On a scale of 1 to 5, with 1 showing the food is horrible, terrible and undescribable and 5 showing the food is excellent, delicious and over the top, I wanna give a “4” to Bentong Restaurant and a “1” to Kristal Restaurant.

After the "fabulous" dinner, we went to Gui's house to gamble.

I was told that in this year, the Dragon Children is Fan Tai Sui

(meaning to say that they are out of luck this year.)

Though i was one of the Dragon Children, I was able to win quite a lot of money at playing whether blackjack or mahjung.

Maybe I should thank Uncle Choi for blessing me.

Hehe...

CNY Eve

2009-02-03T22:08:00.016+08:00

Early in the morning, my mum was busy worshipping.

The smells of the incense, steamed chicken, fresh fruits … (things that are used for worshipping) were full of my house.

This kind of CNY ambience, somehow, I like it very much.

This year, we waited until the CNY eve before we started to decorate our house for Chinese New Year.

Again, it’s about hanging blinking illuminations, flashy firecrackers, glittery lanterns in front of the house.

Inside of the house, we pasted some spring festival scrolls.

Outside of the house pula, we decorated the bonsai with some artificial plum blossom and mini accessories.

During this year Chinese New Year, I discovered something special concerning the house decoration.

Some people tend to decorate their house with the blue color illuminations which made their house look as if it’s going to celebrate Christmas.

To me, it is a bit inappropriate and odd.

Personally, I think the typical type of fine decorated sample should be like this:

(Reddish Sparkling Deco.)

By tradition, the most important thing of the CNY eve is having a reunion dinner.

At 5pm plus, my mum prepared some auspicious dishes for our reunion dinner.

I have to say that this is the most sumptuous reunion dinner that I have ever had…

I was very very full after dining.

(I will upload pics of the dishes later)

At 10pm plus, my friends and I had a little “Lao Shang” gathering at Pat’s house.

(5 of us)

We bought a take-away Yu Shang at Restaurant Bentong before we headed to Pat’s house in Desa Damai.

It was a vegetarian Yu Shang since many of us don’t like to eat the Sashimi and some of us would like to practice vegetarianism on the first day of Lunar Chinese New Year.

Before we started to Lao Shang, it’s Mahjong Time.

Sin Teng, who was playing with her curly hair, looked really like a Queen of Gamble who was getting impatient with other players.

In the end, I was told that Sin Teng was the ultimate winner.

At 12am plus, it was already the first day of the Lunar Chinese New Year, we started to Lao.

Everyone was busy “Lao”ing and saying some auspicious phrases during the Lao Shang.
As usual, the Yu Shang ain’t tasty, but we had a good time during the Lao Shang.

At the same time, Pat's family was worshipping to invite the "God of Wealth" / "Uncle Choi".

Hopefully Uncle Choi will giv me some wealth too :)

Here, I wanna wish u guys Happy Chinese New Year.

May u all hav a prosperous bullish year!

2009-02-03T16:57:00.002+08:00

What a paradoxical scene!

2009-01-08T21:36:00.005+08:00

Recently, my "lovely" school - UUM has launched the Eco-Friendly Campaign.

The U has started to ban the use of polystyrene containers to store food and the use of plastic bag in the campus.

In fact, I was quite proud of my U that finally it has done something to save the environment.

However, soon after I discovered the following scene, I felt bloody disappointed...

Let hav a look at the PIC below :

(Arrows in red show the polystyrene and plastic containers ;

Arrow in green shows the bio-degradable container (Eco-pak).)

WHAT A BLOODY PARADOXICAL SCENE!

For goodness sake, Plz be consistent with what U r doing!

Bye Bye 2008!

2008-12-31T21:48:00.005+08:00

Time is ticking, fast and before we knew it the year is coming to a close.

For me myself, I am always scrambling for time as there are so many things I’m trying to finish before 2008 bid me a goodbye.

On the other hand, I’m wondering what meaningful things had I done for this whole year.

Erm…

Well, I have gone through a lot of things for this year – 2008.

#1: Working at Advertising Department in GH,

There were some sweet memories and of course, some “bitter” memories.

I have learned what is called “Office Politic”, how to deal with double-faced people and last but not least, how to protect myself from being exploited.

I have to admit that this bad patch do really widen my very limited vision.

Anyhow, I was glad to make acquaintance of some very nice seniors, supervisors and trainees around that time.

(Advertising Department - My fellow Friends.)

#2: Get my not-so-good STPM result,

Frankly speaking, I felt rather disappointed with my result when I first got it.

“Life isn’t just about EXAM!” as my dear friend, Patricia’s saying goes.

Whenever I thought about this saying, I felt kinda…easy.

So, here, I wanna say “Thank You” to you, Pat.

#3: To further my study in UUM – Sintok, Kedah,

Do you know what is my first reaction when I was told that I was taken by UUM?

I called Utar, asked them about the July Intake, and made a plan to study Actuarial Science in Utar.

Thank God I didn’t make that choice,
Cuz now only I realize that study doesn’t depend on location.

Instead, it depends much on you yourself.

After talking much about my 2008 History, well, I think it’s the time of the year I pen down my list of things I want to achieve for the following year.

Erm…

Let just talk about it next year, cuz I’m very lazy to set goals and achieve them at the moment.

Lastly, I wanna wish everyone who’s reading this blog right now,

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Christmas!

2008-12-28T21:54:00.011+08:00

Today is the fabulous Christmas Eve.

And I celebrated with my beloved friends at UUM.

Once after the Com 2 exam, Alex and Keong went to Jitra to buy food for Christmas celebration tonight.

At the same time, they would take the birthday cake that they had ordered at Secret Resipe.

Meaning to say that, someone's birthday falls on the Christmas and we would celebrate her birthday simultaneously with the Christmas Party.

She totally had no idea about it and Alex and Keong wanted to spring a suprise on her.

The party started at 8pm.

However, due to the latecomers (including me), we started it at 9 plus.

Instead of eating turkey and drinking good wine, we had K.F.Chicken and Pepsi Cola as our Christmas meal.

Obviously, it was way affordable for students like us.

Yet, it was a nice Christmas meal.

After the "fabulous" Christmas meal, we played the "123 BIANG!" game.

Losers had to choose to play either "truth" o "dare".

We really got to know each others after the "truth or dare" game.

Time went by.

At 12am on the dot, the birthday cake was taken out...

There she is, our Main Character of the day - Trista!

8 of us.

Hami and I

The guy in green color t-shirt is Nano.

He really looks childish.

Trista and I

By the end of the party, I had a queer sensation as if something was happening, yet I didn't know what was exactly going on.

Keong's kinda upset...Definitely there was something happening between Keong and Alex.

Girl or Money problems?

Probably is the former one.

Anyway, during the gift exchange session, I was glad that I received a Taufu-like saving box from Alex.

Luckily, it wasn't the Luxury Biscuit - by Hami (cuz I think Hami's gift is the worst one among the bunches of gifts).

I'm sorry to say that, Hami.

That's how I celebrated my Christmas this year.

Quite ordinary...yet it's peaceful cuz the celebration just involved few of my friends only.

Car Accident Inside the Forest!

2008-12-26T21:44:00.003+08:00

Car accidents can happen in anywhere, even in the forest - UUM.

So, next time when you are driving, think about the picture below, (so that you would pay extra attention).

(I took this pic near the mosque of UUM.)

Happy Belated Birthday, Keong!

2008-12-26T13:00:00.002+08:00

To Keong,

Happy Belated Birthday!

Wish you in the year 2009,

Good Health,

Good Appetite,

and wish find your lover soon!

Anecdote of A-Famosa Trip : Last Day

2008-12-26T11:41:00.010+08:00

12.12.08

Today was the last day for our trip.

b4 we left, we managed to take as many pics as we could in front of our "house".

Beware the Girls!

Herman vs Jacob!

Ostentation vs Diffidence!

(Best Friends 4ever!)

At 9am, 9 of us, as u can see from the pic, were taxied to the Tampin Bus Terminal.

At 9.3am, from Tampin, we took the Transnational bus back to KL.

Once we had reached the Pudu Bus Terminal, Wai Hou headed to his uncle's house by taking LRT, whereas Fei went bac to Bentong first alone, leaving the other 7 of us in the Petaling Street.

It's freaking nostalgic when I came to Petaling Street.

Cuz this was the place that i used to come for tuition every Friday when I was in Form 6.

Before we left for Bentong, we went to have our lunch in Petaling Street.

It was 4pm when we finally reached Bentong.

The busy schedule hadn't finished yet.

I had to start packing my stuff once i reached home.

At 9 pm, I was taken by Pui Kuan to the Bentong Bus Station and boarded the 9.3pm bus back to UUM.

Finally, I could take a rest inside the bus.

Below is the summing-up of the journey that i had took today :

This had really been a hectic day for me.

And to my Bentong Frens,

C u guys at CNY!

Anecdote of A-famosa Trip: Day 2

2008-12-26T10:55:00.010+08:00

11.12.08

It’s hard to imagine that there was so less F&B choices available inside the A-Famosa Resort.

There was nothing to eat when I woke up.

I just made myself a cup of tea to fill up some parts of my stomach first.

While waiting for the others to wake up, I went to swim.

It feels so good to swim in the freezing cold water while your body is being shined by the sunshine.

At 12pm plus, Steven and Bee headed to the town to buy something for everyone to eat.

At the same time, they would buy things that are needed for the BBQ tonight.

At 3.3pm, after having our lunch, 12 persons, excluding Steven and Clara, went to the Water Park by taking the Banana.

Due to some superstitious advices, Clara decided not to join us.

Hence, as her boyfriend, Steven accompanied her.

Playing water in the Water Park tend to expose one’s flaws to the others.

According to rules of Water Park, boys have to wear trunk or beachwear whereas the girls can choose to wear whatever they like.

When the guys had finished changing their clothes, the girls acted like a lecher pointing and discussing the guys’ body NON STOP, especially Miki.

I mean, girls, stop being harsh to the boys.

On the other hand, boys, try to keep your body fit if you dun want to be the laughingstock.

Below I'm going to demonstrate some activities that we had played inside the Water Park:

First, we went to play the High Speed Slides.

This two towering High Speed Slides is the landmark of A’Famosa Water World.

These seven-storey slides really provide a heart-stopping high velocity joyride as you can hurtle down and reach the ground in just a few seconds!

It's just as breathtaking as playing the spaceshot in Genting Highland!

This is the Wave Pool!

Every time the sirens wail, a wave heads toward the shore.

Later on, for something less strenuous, we took a dip in one of the world’s longest Lazy River.

Relaxed on a tube ride as the journey took around the water theme park easily.

(Here we were inside the Water Park!)

At night, we had a BBQ gathering.

It cost us RM300 for a 8 persons BBQ Package.

Unbelievable Expansive!

Anyway, we mixed it with the raw food that we had bought in the morning so that the bbq could afford 14 persons’ stomachs.

(Again, we took some crazy pics.)

Anyhow, this had been a great night.

All night long, we were eating and chatting, having some good time together.

Anecdote of A-Famosa Trip : Day 1

2008-12-17T23:43:00.029+08:00

10.12.08

This trip has already been eagerly awaited for several months.

So I felt rather excited when this day finally came.

Early in the morning, 9 of us (Fei, Herman, Pat, Bowie, Clara, Wai Hou, Andy, Wan Sin, and I) took the 7.40 a.m. bus heading for KL.

There were still another 5 persons who were going to join the trip.

They (Chee Hong, Bee, Steven, Kambing and Jia Yu) waited for us at Pudu Bus Terminal.

Again, we had been divided into 2 gangs to go to Melaka.

One was taking the bus while the other one (Clara, Steven, Bee, and Kambing) was going in Steven’s car.

The happy journey started at 10am.

(From KL to Tampin in Melaka)

We finally reached A-Famosa Resort at 12.30pm plus.

Inside A-famosa Resort, every little thing is about money.

Even when you are taking the shuttle bus, which we call it Banana Truck, you have to pay one ringgit for every ride, not to mention the food there.

( This is the so-called Banana Truck that we took.)

We still couldn’t check in when we reached the Check-in Villa at around 1pm.

Dunno what kind of rule is that.

Anyway, before we checked in, we went to the Safari to start our first tour and at the same time, find something to eat.

(Entrance of SAFARI.)

All of us almost starved to death.

When the scene of tons of people scrambling for food came into sight, I almost passed out.

We spent almost 30 minutes plus to buy our lunch.

And I have to say, the food was TERRIBLE and HORRIBLE.

RM12 for a can of soft drink and a plate of chicken rice was totally not worthwhile.

After the terrible lunch, we went to Monkey Island by “sampan-like ferry”.

Bowie, Miki, Wan Sin, Clara, me and Wai Hou in the sampan-like ferry.

There were various type of monkey on the Monkey Island. And this is one of them.

(All of us took a happy-together pic b4 we left the island.)

Then, we proceeded to view the multi animal show.

Watching the show was like watching Sesame Street, obviously it wasn't suitable to our range. Very very BORING!

Here we were inside the showroom.

(Inside the chicken farm.)

We managed to take many photos inside SAFARI.

But most of photos are still with my friend, I havn’t taken from them.

At 4pm plus, we went back to the check-in villa to check in by BANANA.

We rented two villas.

They looked quite nice from inside and outside.

#1 : View from outside the house.

Swimming pool behind the house.

Living Room!

Dining Area - how come u guys played psp at here?

Kitchen with its two ambassadors.

(Little Garden inside the house.)

At 7pm plus, we continued our busy “schedule” by visiting the COWBOY TOWN.

(There were some A-GUAs performing “welcoming dance”. )

There were very few choices of F&B available inside A-Famosa.

Finally, we made up our mind by having dinner at Emperor Restaurant.

Now u c,

now u dun.

(Pat, Herman, Wai Hou and me.)

We finished every little things that we had ordered cuz the food there was very expensive.

All of our necks were kena potong.

As u can c from the pic, we were in Cowboy Town.

The parade and firework were gorgeous.

However, i couldn't snap it clearly cuz it was dark around.

You dun miss it when you come to COWBOY TOWN.

The anecdote of A-Famosa Trip for day1 stopped at 3am (basically it’d already been 2nd day) when all us finally went to sleep.

Happy Reunion ^-^

2008-12-02T20:46:00.009+08:00

1.12.08

Regarding the title above,

I’m talking about the gathering today with Herman, Fei, Nobita, Jimmy, Jena, and Hui Teng.

At 11am plus, Herman and I arrived at Timesquare as we had promised.

While waiting for the guys to turn up, we went window-shopping.

Jena was the first to turn up, followed by Hui Teng, Jimmy and Nobita.

And our BIG BROTHER – Fei, was the last one to arrive when all of us was having our lunch in Da Men (Japanese Restaurant located in Low Yat).

While waiting for our meals to be served, we chatted to catch up on each other’s news.

After our lunch, we went to SEED in SG.WANG to have a look at the “very cheap clothes” (claimed by Jimmy).

Christmas Sales were everywhere.

It’s worthwhile buying clothes now.

So, as a SMART CONSUMER, I didn’t hesitate to try on the clothes and buy some.

(To my sister who is reading this blog right now,
I’m not wasting money on some unnecessary clothes,
I’m buying it for the CNY.)

After the shopping spree, we headed to the Timesquare again.

We intended to watch movie.

However, due to some reasons, we ended up “Yam Cha”ing in Gasoline.

Game that we played inside Gasoline.
I’m not sure what it was called in English.

The actual fun of the whole games was coming from Hui Teng.

She was not very good at removing and balancing the blocks.

So, she lost 3 out of 5 games.

I mean……very “impressive”, Hui Teng!

Our gathering come to an end at 4.3pm plus.

(Pic that we took b4 we left.)

I had a lot fun today.

Though I dunno why it’s so difficult for us to plan a nice schedule early,
but thanks God,
the not-so-planned gathering turned out to be more amusing than I thought.

“Final”ly, it’s over!

2008-11-27T21:24:00.008+08:00

25.11.08

My last paper – Introduction to Accounting Principle took place today.

This whole week, I seemed to “live for” this paper.

The day before the exam, I couldn’t help myself to stop thinking about my “after-the-exam schedule”.

It kept frustrating my attempt to do my revision.

Anyhow, I carried it through.

Concerning the paper this time, I have probably screwed it up.

cuz the questions were so tough and tricky.

Even the accounting students think the questions were tough.

Anyway, I have nth to repent of cuz I have already tried my best.

To celebrate the finished final exam, we went to Kuala Perlis to try the well-known seafood meal.

We rented two “kereta sapu” cuz there were 10 of us, including Jun, Jian Ning, Hong, Hami, Boon, Hua, Chun, The Dog, and one Dun-know-wat-his-name-is.

During the journey, we had a slight “accident”.

One of our cars was running out of gas.

So damned funny!

In order to “save” the car, the other car had to go to the nearest petrol station to buy petrol.

Luckily, problem was solved soon after the petrol was bought.

None of us was familiar with the road to KP.

So again, it was very lucky for us to reach our destination safe and sound.

The restaurant was called Hai-Tien (Sea-Sky).

My first impression of it was shabby and dilapidated.

It seemed as if it’s going to shatter anytime.

However, the food there was exceptionally delicious.

(Food we’ve ordered.)

The fried You-Tiao was the most delicious one.

Thinking of it now made me drool.

(We took pic after the excellent meal!)

Jun was taking the Da Bau.

We reached our hostel at around 10pm.

What a tiring day!

Alone!

2008-11-21T13:31:00.007+08:00

20.11.08

Starting from today (till 25th), I have to live alone in Room #302,

Cuz all of my roommates already went home tonight.

At first, I thought this was going to be good to me, cuz I think I can focus 100% on my account revision without any distraction.

I guess I was wrong.

Cuz I’m freaking lonely now!

No more hullabaloo raised by Nano.

And no more Japanese songs and “Bleach” cartoon animations played by Keong.

The room just feels so empty now.
.
.
.
Telling u secretly,

Tonight I’m going to sleep at Boon’s room (which is opposite to my room).

It’s not like I’m timid as a hare to sleep alone,

It’s just because few days ago, we had a “UUM Ghost Story Convention” where we talked about ghost stories which are primarily concerned with UUM.

Frankly speaking, those stories really did freak me out.

I also hav learned some Pantang from the ghost stories.

Pantang#1: try to put sth on ur cupboard so tt it wont look so empty.

If not,

~someone would sit on it and watch u when u r sleeping~

Pantang #2 : try to put sth on ur mattress as well when u left for s'where.

If not,

~someone would sleep on it and occupy that bed~

Anyhow, today I mainly spent my time with two of my beloved roommates.
We went to have lunch in Subaidah.

Then, we, Alex Keong, Nano, Jun and I had our last DOTA battle (for this sem).

At night, we had dinner at TNB.

Then, 10pm plus, Alex, Boon and I sent Nano and Keong off at University INN.

(Pic we took b4 Keong and Nano (green arrow) left.)

5 more days to go,
by then it’s my turn to go home after my last paper.

What I should do now is Gambatei for my last paper.

GAM GAM GAM, GAMBATEI!

Steamboat Again ^-^

2008-11-08T14:00:00.009+08:00

7.11.08

Yea!

Another steamboat gathering.

Today, Wan Sin, Si Mung, Shu Yun and I had a Small Bentong Gathering by having dinner in Chang Lun.

I'll let the photos do the talking...

Wan Sin with the food.

Variety of Food served.

Even I could decoct a better soup than this one.

The spicyness wasn't enough, neither was the sourness.

Beloved Shu Yun and Wan Sin.

Me n Si Mung.

It cost us RM50 for whole set of steamboat.

Though it wasn't the typical type of steamboat that we used to have, it still counted as NOT BAD.

Overall, this has been a day to remember, for four of us.

Beyonce vs Obama

2008-11-08T13:41:00.004+08:00

6.11.08

What is the biggest events happening recently?

I’m sure many will say it is the “Obama became the first African American”.

Well, if u ask me, I would have to answer –“ the debut of Beyonce’s single –If I were a boy/single ladies”.

It’s not that I’m not concerned about the political world.

I do really think Obama has done a good job.

Congratulation to Obama!

He showed the world, especially our COUNTRY that irrespective of race and religion, nothing is impossible with hard work and determination.

Anyway, in my perspective, I think the debut of Beyonce’s new single is bigger.
(cuz she is the BEYONCE)

Talking about the songs,
I am totally absolutely wholly in love with the song – If I Were a Boy.

It’s such a great ballad.

The bootylicious super diva reckons she'd make a better man than any of the cheating, selfish gits she's run into in her time.

The video of the song is kinda like “Freaky Friday”.

In the beginning of the video, a guy (I guess he was Ms Knowles’ husband in the video) makes Ms Knowles breakfast and she kinda dun hav time to eat.

She is playing a role as a police officer who does things that hurt her significant other, like not answering his phone and flirting with other guy.

It made her look wanton and I kinda dun like it.

However,
at the end of the clip, I realized that Ms Knowles was acting out his life and he was a cop and everything that occurred was really him doing the same things to her.

Dramatic yet interesting.

I'm Only Joking!

2008-10-31T14:13:00.004+08:00

30/31.10.08

Wan Sin sent me a sms (on 30.10).

And the content is as below:

This is DIGI special gift for every DIGI user.
Just send this message to another 10 DIGI user and you'll get RM50 free automatic.

I always receives this kind of sms.

99 out of 100 of it were scams.

Frankly speaking, I didn’t believe this kind of message anymore since I had been “scammed” several times (due to avarice).

But still, I wanna try my luck this time.

So, I sent it to other 1o people.

It seemed 9 of them didn’t even want to bother about the sms.

Whereas, Andy who was one of the 10 people I mentioned above, acted kinda…extreme.

He replied that he was annoyed to receive this kind of sms.

Plus, he said I’m very “cheap” (by sending this kind of sms to somebody).

At the time, I felt bloody angry with his remarks.

This is because first of all, I dun think this kind of sms will do harm to anyone.

It just depends whether you want to send it to another 10 people.

Furthermore, it doesn’t contain any curse, like if u dun send this message to another 10 people, you will be out of luck.

.
.
.

Suddenly, there was a BIG idea (wicked PRANK) coming from my head.

It was about trying to trick Andy into believing this message and indeed sending this sms to 10 other people.

Somehow, I just wanna be mischievous this time.

So, I replied I had already received the RM50 by forwarding this message to another 10 people.

And I asked him to believe me and do it faster becuz the offer was valid for 2 days only.

Guessed what?

He believed it.

WA HA HA HA HA!

The next morning (31.10), he asked me why he didn’t received that RM50 though he had sent the sms to 10 people.

And I replied happily that I lied to him.

Soon, I deeply regretted what I had done.

It seemed he was rather fed up with me.

He said he had to explain to those 10 people and this was all because of my bullshit,

n emphasized I had totally “betrayed” our friendship by telling such a lie (sound very serious).

.
.
.
.
.
.
(after a deep thought)

Maybe this time I was a little over.

So, I replied him with a message of apology.

Hopefully he can forget about what I’d done and forgive me.

Hey, buddy.

I was only joking.

No hard feeling, k?

Add Drop Week.

2008-10-28T22:28:00.008+08:00

26 & 27th .10.08

27th of this month was really a big day to me.

Cuz it was the day when the Add Drop Week was going to start.

It was kinda scary cuz it was my first time to add courses through the internet.

I have no idea how’s the situation going to be.

Was the line going to be congested with tons of applicants?

Or,

If I could successfully add all the courses that I wanted to add.

Full of question marks.

7.3pm, June, Jian Ning, Keong and I left for DKG5 after taking our dinner n bath.

Some of us brought a lot of things, likes books, papers, pens, multiple socket, water and even food.

Seemed like going to live in Africa for months.

LOL

Luckily there was just a few people there when we arrived.

Quickly, we sat at somewhere near the socket and “set up” our laptop.

At 8pm, Alex, Cai Li and Pih Ling turned up.

There were 4 hours left before 12am.

So during that 4 hours, some of us were relaxing by playing games, watching movie, eating and chatting, while some were still busy with their timetable.

I was one of the latter one.

When I was almost finished, suddenly Sam and Kieth showed up.

I ended up following their timetable (since my timetable couldn’t meet most of their demands).

I thought the problems were solved there and I could simply sit down, relax and wait for add-drop.

However, problems arose when we found that Sam hadn’t updated the course timetable yet.

So we had to arrange the timetable once again.

Really troublesome!

So it took us another hour to get our timetable ready.

Huh!

Time went by.

.
.
.

One minute before 12am, all of us were counting down.

Once it came to 12am, I quickly key in the code of Financial Management (the utmost important course for my next sem).

I was so glad tt the course has been successfully updated!

Everything was going smooth at first.

However, soon after several adding, the speed of the line had become bloody slow.

And I found that some groups of courses that I intended to add had become full.

Quickly I moved to plan B.

Again, FULL.

Plan C.

Again, FULL.

After several tries, finally, there was only one course left.

I thought at last I could make it.

THANKS to the goddamn super slow line, half of an hour had passed (I heard tt the portal would only open for ½ hour for add-drop).

By then, none of us could log in anymore.

Haiz!

(Cai Li and Alex were waiting patiently to log in again)

But we never gave in to the goddamn super slow line, we kept on trying and trying…until finally miracle appeared!

Nano could log in!

(Nano with his laptop)

So all of us used Nano’s laptop to add our courses.

Thanks god!

We finally made it.

All of us were over the moon.

Though my timetable wasn’t arranged as I wished, I really appreciate what I got now cuz many of my friends couldn’t even add any course.

It’s about 3.3am when we finally finished adding all the courses.

Finally we could go back to our room to have a good sleep.

zzzzzz

2 Things I’ve Learned Today!

2008-10-21T10:07:00.008+08:00

19.10.08

Today, Keong, Boon, Alex, Cai Li (Alex”s gf), Hamizan and I planned to go to Sport Complex to play badminton at 3.30pm.

However, Keong, Boon, Hamizan and I didn’t make it on time.

We arrived at the bus stop at about 3.40pm.

Once we arrived, we saw Alex and Cai Li were already there waiting for us.

At first, I didn’t sense the aura at the bus stop was a bit odd.

So, I kept on laughing and cracking jokes.
.
.
.
There were several buses passing and didn’t stop by.

Suddenly, Alex slammed his bag against the bench.

His act freaked me out (as I have never seen him acting like that before).

Soon, I could sense something was happening~~~

It seemed that he was fed up with the latecomers [(-us) who had procrastinated the plan].

In the end, Alex and Cai Li refused to go and left the bus stop.

Starting from that moment, I learned that time concept is really crucial.

And my first lesson was – BE PUNCTUAL.

Anyway, four of us didn’t want to spoil our mood.

So, we continued with our plan.

At last, we reached the Sport Complex at around 4.15pm.

After the badminton “match”, we changed to play Ping Pong.

If I’m not mistaken, I had not played Ping Pong for almost 10 years.

So, three of us, rookie, were counting on our coach – Hamizan who was the second runner-up of the “U” Ping Pong Competition, to teach us.

So, Ping-Pong was my second lesson for today.

Ping-Pong was a bit harder than I thought.

First of all, I learned how to grip the bat.

Secondly, I learned how to control the ball (toughest part).

Finally, I learned some tactics, eg : to smash.

Overall, I gave a “A” to Hamizan for teaching us Ping-Pong.

Cuz he was not “stingy” to teach us what he knew.

After the games, we headed to Convo Expo to have our dinner.

The atmosphere there was full of “Convo Feel”, just look at the pictures below:

Set up for the photo snapping - so "cool"!

RM1 charged for taking photo with the bears.

(Finally i could see the fountain flashing water at night. )

There were many graduates taking photo, I didn't snap them cuz the environment was too dark.

Looking at the scene made me imagine the situation when i'm going to graduate 2 n a half years later.

Huh!

By then, I must recall back what I had done today.

Aduh!

2008-10-19T09:33:00.002+08:00

17.10.08

It’s 2.30am now.

I can’t believe that I am writing this blog right now.

All of my roommates are already asleep.

Guess what keep me awake?

The unbearable “PAIN”.

Yes, it’s my “best friend” - muscular rheumatism, come to visit me again.

I dunno what the hell is happening this time, the pain is just unbearable though I have taken in the pain killer.

I guess that my “best friend” has grown stronger now.

Now I’m just trying to distract my “attention” from the pain by typing this blog.

I do not mean to write this long.

So maybe later I will proceed to “dota”ing or do some revision to keep distracting my attention from the pain.

What I’m sure is that later I must go to the PKU to see the doctor.

Hopefully this time he will give me the right painkiller and right treament.

As a conclusion, I hope that whoever read this blog may start to take good care of their body.

Take me as the bad living example.

Dun simply let any part of your body get injured.

Luther Vandross

2008-10-19T09:14:00.003+08:00

15.10.08

Today, I accidentally downloaded a song named “Dance with My Father”.

The song is performed by Luther Vandross, a singer that I had never heard before.

At first, I thought the song was so-so.

Out of my expectation, it was fantastic.

The lyric, rhyme, tone, plus the voice of the singer, everything about the song works so perfectly.

What I wanna emphasize here is the voice of Luther Vandross.

Three words to describe the voice of Luther.

Mellow, soft, and “man”.

It’s just hard to find another guy in this world with such voice.

So unique!

Here, I wanna introduce you guys to this song.

The song is dedicated to Vandross’ memory childhood dances with his father.

The video for this song features various celebrities alongside their fathers and other family members.

The most eye-catching pairs of “celebrities with fathers” sure is Beyonce with her father.

The song also won Luther his fourth and final award in the Best Male R&B Vocal Performance category.

Unfortunately, Luther Vandross died on July 1, 2005 at the age of 54.

The cause of his death was never publicly released.

What a loss to the Music Industry!

By the way, the release of the music video “Bye Bye” from Mariah Carey sees Luther's picture appear in the closing images.

His image was included as a tribute along with various other deceased people with whom Carey had collaborated with during her career.

Anyway, hope u guys enjoy listening to this song.

UNEXPECTED!

2008-10-10T23:11:00.008+08:00

10.10.08

2.3pm, Nano, Alex, Boon, Keong and I went to Komplex Sukan to play badminton.

Unfortunately, there was a competition going on in the badminton court.

What an unexpected and disappointed news!

It was not worthy for us to go back to hostel cuz we had walked for such a long journey to the Komplex Sukan.

(guys with their bi)

(Look at that childish Nano - showing his double signals.)

So we changed our plan to cycling.

The seat of the mountain bicycle was too low to me.

The level of the seat couldn’t changed since it was screwed tightly.

Furthermore, the seat was too hard for my ass to handle.

My ass was ache and I had to suffer a relapse (I injured my pelvis a year ago).

During the cycling journey, we visited the Taman Rusa.

Though it has been 3 months since we came to UUM, we havn’t visited the Taman Rusa yet.

This was a good opportunity for us to get close to see the deers.

Look at the deers, how adorable they are!
(Boon - guy in green, threatening the deer not to move)

After cycling, Alex suggested to take a sauna.

We havn’t tried the sauna here before.

So everyone was eager to try.

(Sauna Room)
It cost us RM3 each person, including a towel and a short as well.

It was quite disgusting for us to wear the short since we dunno whether it was well cleaned.

Anyway, we still had to use it since we didn’t bring any of our personal towel and short.

It was a fresh experience to me as I have never had a sauna before.

By the end of the sauna, the sweat was pouring off me.

Huh!

I had become totally rejuvenated and refreshing.

You should try it if you are lazy to exercise.

It has been a crazy day!

Totally exhausted now.

Bad News!

08.10.08

Today, I heard the BAD NEWS second hand.

It was about the English for Communication 2 timetable.

Probably that I have to attend my Com2 classes from 14th Nov to 24th Dec.

That means that my A-Famosa Holiday Plan was probably going to be cancelled.

If that is really going to happen, I will be feeling ashamed to face my friends.

Cuz I hav promised them early that I will join this A-Famosa Holiday plan with 100% certainty.

Haiz!

Why Must “U” treat me like that?

Why?

Damned Bus!

2008-10-08T23:15:00.003+08:00

4.10.08
Just in the blink of an eye, my holidays were over.

7.10pm, Bee took me to the bus terminal.
(Thanks, Bee)

When we arrived, I didn’t see anyone there yet.

But soon, people crowded the bus terminal.

There were only 10 of us who were going to take the bus back to UUM.

But how come there could be so many of people?

Here, I wanna say “Thanks” to our beloved friends.

Cuz they came to see us off (though there was a traffic jam due to “Balik Kerja” phenomena).

I hadn’t seen some of them for some time.

Most of them hav become prettier and more handsome.

Kambing is the one who has the most dramatic change.

Just looked at his hairstyle.

Simple yet fashionable.

We were chatting while waiting for the bus.

The bus supposed to come at 7.30pm.

But dunno what the hell was happening – the arrival of the bus was one and a half hours late.

Some of my friends intended to dine after saw us off.

However, they didn’t expected that the bus so damned late.

So, at the time they all had to “ikat perut” first.

At 9pm, the damned bus came.

After saying goodbye, our friends left and we were sitting inside the bus while waiting for the bus to take off.

Soon, we could feel the temperature inside the bus was rising.

Guess what happened?

The pipe of the air conditioner was broken.

So, the driver and his partners took another half hour to solve the problem.

At 9.30pm, the bus indeed took off.

Initially, I really thanked God for letting us take off.

However, seemed that God didn’t stand by our side.

Soon after one hour, the damned bus broke down again (in Gombak area).

Tiu Na Sing!

I really shoudn’t be rude.

But other than these three words, I dunno what words else can express my feeling at that time.

Really Tiu NA Sing!

The driver left us in a Mamak Restaurant called AL-Isian (if I’m not mistaken).
Girls were chatting happily.

Sin, and Mr. An - the most talkative person I hav ever met b4.

After an hour had passed, the bus came back to the restaurant to take us.

Walau eh!

11.30pm oredy.

“Bon voyage!”, I said to myself.

Lastly, our journey really became “Bon Voyage”.

We successfully arrived at UUM at 6am.

FINALLY!

Former Colleague Gathering

2008-10-05T20:49:00.004+08:00

2.10.08

Today, Herman and I went to KL to meet Fei and Kit as we had promised.

We intended to meet them at 12pm at Timesquare.

However, we didn’t board the 10am bus (cuz Herman thought there would be another Mara bus coming at 10.15am).

Unfortunately, the Mara bus service was stopped during the Hari Raya Holiday.

We knew it at the last minute.

What to do?

We took the 11am bus.

There were a lot of people taking the bus.

Most of them were foreign workers.

I had to stop breathing while striving hard to board the bus,
cuz the strong smell from the foreign worker was Be Tahan.

Yuk! What a smell!

For goodness sake, Plz buy a DEO.

We reached our destination at 1pm.

At first, we met Kit at the monorail station.

I almost couldn’t recognize him (cuz his face has become rounder and his hair has become shorter).

Since we had bought the 6pm bus ticket, there wasn’t much time left for K-singing.

So we moved to our next plan - watching movie - Painted Skin.

Again, unfortunately, all strategy seats had been sold out, left only the front corner seats.

Haiz.

We moved to our last plan - meeting Fei at Low Yat. (at the time, he was helping his fren buying laptop)

Fei was another shock to me when I saw him.

Looked at his tummy, so tumorous.

It seems that KL lifestyle was very easeful.

Then, we went to All IT to buy something.

After that, we headed to Shikiya (I’m not sure about the name) – a halal Japanese Restaurant to have our lunch.

The food there was terrible.

The rice was tasteless.

The sweet corn wasn’t sweet, it had a decomposed odor.

One and only advantage was the water refilling service.

Anyway, we had a good time chatting about our recent happenings and gossiping about our former boss.

Again, when come to gossiping our former boss, there was a lot to talk about.

“That FranXX…hobby is torturing new trainee…”
“That DavXX…Still that Sui Yong…”
.
.
.
After having our lunch, we continued our shopping spree.

Finally Herman and I had bought sth that we need.

(Guys checking out the head set tt's just bought.)

Hemm, it's good to meet my buddy again,

Hopefully during our next time gathering, Jena, Cikgu, Hui Teng and Pik Wah also can join.

^.^ PIGLET ^.^

2008-10-01T21:35:00.009+08:00

1.10.08

Missed “piglet” so much.

I hadn’t seen this “piglet” since last holiday.

He is so cute as usual, still, he is very very…...naughty (as usual).

After dinner tonight, he asked me if I wanna join him to play candle.

His “invitation” reminded me of my childhood.

I remember that, during my childhood, I was the kind of kid that would keep playing with candle or latern though moon cake festival had passed several days.

I was free at the time, furthermore, I also wanted to recall back my childhood memories.

So, I joined him.

Nowadays, laterns were designed so creatively.

cute face with his heart shape candles.

me and piglet

cute enough to pose for "Child Vogue"

little chef

Overall, this nite really made me recall bac my childhood memories.

Detox!

Pairs of chromosomes in a gene, and one determines your skin condition.

Genetics is one of the factors certainly to blame for bouts of acne.

Individuals with oily, thicker skin inherited from mom or dad tend to be most affected.

Unfortunately, I’m one of the individuals mentioned above.

I used to blame my parents (in my heart) for passing down such a bad gene to me.

But, nowadays, I’m no longer a “reproacher”.

Instead, I should thank my parents.

The inheritance of bad skin condition always reminds me to lead a healthy lifestyle (sound airs and graces, but it’s true).

Avoid taking in evil junk food, maintaining 8 hours sleep each day and exercising at least 3 times a week are the basic healthy lifestyle I mean.

However, sometimes, the seduction of the mean unhealthy food is irresistible.

For eg, during the steamboat gathering two days ago, I told myself that I should only take in the boiled food for my skin’s sake.

But when come to reality, it’s a different story.

Looking at the sausages sizzling on the teppanyaki made me lose control (as you can see from the pics in “steamboat gathering – 28.09.08”, our “steamboat” is teppanyaki and steamboat combined).

Forgetting about the “healthy lifestyle”, I ate tons of FRIED sausages, hams, fish balls, chicken slices, and sotong.

Guess what “awards” did I get in consequence of that.

Tons of acne!

Today, I told myself that I must undergo a detoxification to get rid of the acne during these few days before I go back to UUM.

A detoxification can be practiced at different levels, depending on your needs and how far you want to take it.
I have chosen the simple one.

Below is my DETOX plan :

1. DETOX DIETS:
Fresh Natural Organic Fruit Juice
Today, I tried to create a new juice – I hav oredy named it – Miracle Juice SK3
The combination is quite fresh.
Here is the “recipe”:

Ingredients:
½ Aloe vera
3 slices of honey dew
A bottle of Yakult yogurt drink

Steps:

1. Slice the aloe vera and the honey dew into small pieces.

2. Then put all the pieces into the blender.

3. Add the Yakult.

4. Push the button “ON” and wait for about 1 minute.

5. A glass of Miracle Juice SK3 is served.

Try it if you dare (cuz some people dun like the flavor of aloe vera).

2. DRINK, DRINK AND DRINK!
Water is the key to flushing out toxins.
So, I kept remind myself to drink water.
Before drinking water, I must remind myself to boil water first (since all of my family members were out of town).

3. WHAT GOES IN MUST COME OUT

It’s the best to begin with the intestines to prevent toxic substances from become reabsorbed.
So, I drank a glass of plain warm water once I wake up to moisture my intestines so that it can move adequately enough to expel the toxins.

4. YOGA
I choose to practice yoga since I am the kind of person who is lazy to move a lot.
Yoga has the ability to relax your body and control your breathing.
Depending on what yoga you practice, it has different outcome.
I choose to practice the simple one like:

Certainly not this:

Steambot Gathering

2008-09-29T21:46:00.007+08:00

28th.09.08

To celebrate all of my friends back from different places (Sabah, Kedah, Penang, and Kl) during Hari Ray holidays, we organized a steambot gathering at my house.

All of my family members were out of town, so this was the good opportunity to have a gathering till late at night.

There were 12 people who would join the gathering this time.

They were Andy, Bee, Herman, Hoe Pui, Wai Hou, Lek, Chun Fei, Sin Teng, Jia Ling, Patricia, Wan Sin and of course, me. (Regrettably, Monica and Miki couldn’t join us this time)

Early in the morning, Pat, Andy, Herman, Hoe Pui went to buy the necessary thing and food.

Then, they took all the thing to my house.

It was my turn now to prepare the food (with the help of Hoe Pui)

The preparation included cleaning the raw food, slicing the meat into pieces, and the most troublesome part – decocting the Tom Yam soup.

Overall, Hoe Pui and I did a good job cuz the Tom Yam soup was tiptop – sourness and spiciness were in perfect balance.

The steambot gathering supposed to start at 7.30pm.

As usual, due to the latecomer, we started to eat at around 8pm.

The arrangement of the food seemed “professional”.

There were a lot of fun during the meal. Cracking jokes like 37 Celsius milk and future Teresa Kwok (the 12 people I mentioned above would know what i mean here).

The ambience just like the scene in the drama Moonlight Resonance. So warm!

We finished eating at 9.30pm. After that, Pat, Wan Sin and Jia Ling helped me cleaned up the places.

While the others were playing Dota in the living room.

After the dishes had been cleaned, four of us (pic above), Pat, Bee, Wan Sin and I were chatting in the dining room.

After all, steambot gathering for this time was very successful, cuz we didn’t over budget, furthermore, the quantity of the food was just enough – no more wasting.

I just wanna say - What a happy holiday!

Balik Kampong!

2008-09-29T21:34:00.000+08:00

25.09.08

After taking my statistic exam today, I felt absolutely relaxed and excited.

Lol

Cuz tonight I was going to go back to Bentong – my hometown.

At around 6.30pm, my roommates headed to Chang Lun to take the bus back to KL.

The whole hostel became so quite after 8pm (cuz everyone had balik kampong)

It was quite scary when I was taking my bath cuz the surrounding was damned quite.

8.15pm, I went to dine with Fat Long at Mas café.

After that, I proceeded to the bus stop to wait for my #31 bus.

Coincidently, I met Wei Yan and Cheung who were going to go back to Pahang too at the bus stop.

We were chatting until the bus came at 10.30pm.

Luckily, Mei had kept a seat for me (cuz the bus was free-seated one).

Thanks, Mei.

I closed my eyes and listened to music, and tried not to talk to Mei ( cuz she said she NEVER sleeps during the long journey back to hometown – meaning to say that she would keep talking with the people sit beside her during the journey – things that I dun wan to happen)

What to do?

Pretended I was SO tired and sleepy and closed my eyes all the time.

After 8 hours, finally, I arrived at the Bentong bus station.

Thanks God!

Moonfest Charity Show

2008-09-29T21:13:00.008+08:00

22th.09.08

There was something going on in Dewan Mas tonight.

Everyone knew it.

What’s else can it be?

Sure it was the Mooncake Festival Charity Show.

It was so well-known cuz the promotion of the event was started since last month.

Fat Long forced me to buy one ticket(since he was one of the committee of the charity show).

I thought the level of the show was same as the secondary school’s level.

Out of my expectation, it was fantastic.

Really gorgeous!

Around 7pm, Ham, Nano, Boon, and I headed to Dewan Mas

What a “coincidence”!
(Nano would know the meaning of the inverted commas)

We met Li Teng, so we walked together to Dewan Mas.

Before we went inside, we took some pictures.

Ham, Nano, Li Teng & Me

Li Xian & Li Teng

Snaps below were distributed by Sin (cuz i couldn’t take any clear images with my k810).

Acrobatics performance by acrobats from China.

Lion Dance

Orchestral performances by U’s orchestra team – the most boring part of the show.

Fashion show – models decked out in traditional clothes of diff races.

After all, this has been a night to remember.

Farewell

2008-09-20T00:34:00.003+08:00

19-09-08

Today I took my Managerial Math exam.

The questions weren’t very tough, just like the previous Math’s paper.

So, as usual, I double checked my answers after I had done all the questions with full attention.

After I had passed up my paper, I was asked by Ong to stay and wait.

Just as what Hamizan had told me this morning, we were going to give our Math Lecturer, Mr. Mohd Noor a present as a keepsake.

This was because our Mr. Lecturer was going to leave us to further his study in UK next week.

What a disappointing news for the girls (especially the “jellyfish”).

Mr Mohd Noor is the one who is wearing white shirt (sitting in the front site).

Me, Mr Mohd Noor and Hamizan (I looked pale, probably becuz i had just finished my exam.)

As you can see from the pictures, he is quite “handsome” (if compared with the lecturers that I have seen before, that’s the reason why I wanna use inverted commas.)

Lastly, To Mr.Mohd Noor,
I wanna say that I really appreciate what you had taught me these last few months,
ALL THE BEST to u.

An advance celebration of Mooncake Festival

2008-09-15T15:16:00.008+08:00

13.09.08

As far as I am concerned, this year Mooncake Festival was really “special” to me.
Celebrating Mooncake Festival without my family and friends made me feel horrible.
Moreover, I haven’t eaten any mooncake(one that I used to eat during Moon Fest) yet.

Moon cake dedication from friends.
It was touching when I received it (though the mooncake tasted horrible).

Luckily, some of my friends had planned something to celebrate the Moon Fest.
At night, we gathered in front of the Mas café.
Each of us brought a latern and some food.
So we chit chat under the moon while eating food that we brought.

Starting from left : Me, Alex, Pit ling, and Chai Li.

( The Moon behind us was created by myself cuz that night, the moon was partly covered by the dark cloud.)

James with his latern.

Alex and Keong.

Though it was not the typical type of Moon Fest celebration that I used to have, I still enjoyed every moment celebrating Moon Fest here with my friends.

Pork meal ^-^

2008-09-15T14:41:00.008+08:00

12.09.08

Today, around 4.30pm, four of us – Keong,Nano, Boon and I went to Chang Lun.

Again, our purpose was to buy some “supplies”.

During Bulan Ramaddhan, “supplies” especially Maggie Mee were running out quickly.

That meant money was also “running out” quickly.

What to do?

Hav to live frugally this whole month.

Nano and Keong playing with the sunglasses inside C-Mart.

Both of them looked funny, don't you think so?

Beside buying some necessities, Boon intended to buy tickets back to Johor (Boon is a Johor Lang) at the terminal bus of Chang Lun.

Tickets were sold expensively during Hari Perayaan (as many people will balik kampong during Hari Raya.)

My ticket back to Bentong costs RM60 (which has been risen by 30%).

Unbelievable!

But still have to buy cuz miss home.

After the shopping spree, we headed to “Xiang Jian”( a Kampung type “restaurant” near C-Mart) to hav our dinner.

This was the great opportunity to eat something non-halal ^-^

There was only one chef inside the open kitchen.

Furthermore, the chef was an old lady.

So called Gu Lou Yok - pork meal tt v ordered

We waited for 45 minutes and once the food was served, we gobbled down all the food in just 15 minutes.

I guessed that we were really hungry.

( Pic : They seemed really enjoy the dinner just now)

After our dinner, we headed to the terminal bus waiting for the bus back to UUM.

Nano must be exhausted.

Otherwise, there would be no chances for me to take this picture.

What a day!

We successfully arrived "home" at 9.30pm.

Now, I'm really looking forword to have the pork meal again.

PERFECT!

2008-09-11T20:01:00.002+08:00

10.09.08

Somehow, I just felt that my accounting lecturer did not “like” me.

How did I know?

From the expression in his eyes,

the way he looked at me

plus my sixth sense told me so.

Feeling kinda weird during his class (cuz i kept on thinking he didn't like me.)

Today, Mr.Lecturer let us to choose whether we wanna have our quiz in today or in next week.

He kept emphasizing that today quiz was far easier than the next week one.

What to do?

So, we all chose to be quizzed today.

I teamed up with Boon to do the questions.

Jacob + Boon = Excellent

(this is the new formula that I discovered during our cooperation in the question answering)

We finished it early. (the 1st team finished the questions.)

Mr.Lecturer come over to check our answers.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Guess what did he said?

“Correct figures, and correct transactions recording”

“PERFECT”

What?

The word “perfect” was just popped out from his mouth.

Though it’s not a big deal achievement, it seemed unreal to me(especially when he looked at me and said the word “perfect”.)

First time appraisal from the lecturer (especially lecturer that you thought he didn’t like you), it means that I have already changed his impression of me.

LOL

MERDEKA VS BBQ

2008-09-02T20:09:00.007+08:00

31.08.08

Merdeka! Merdeka! Merdeka!

Today is Malaysia 51th Independence Day.

Sure we have to celebrate this big day.

I was asked by my friend, Myron to attend his BBQ party in his house in Alor Star.

We (Nano, Keong, Kieth And I ) boarded the bus at 5.13pm.

Around 6.45pm, we arrived in Shahab Perdana (Bus terminal in Alor Star) and fetched by Myron.

Myron's house is very big and beautiful as you can see from the picture.

BBQ was started at around 10pm.

Preparation took a lot of time.

Especially the part of setting the coal on fire.

You can see how hard to build a fire from the picture.
Sam was using a big fan to blow the fire.

Thank GOD, the fire was finally built.

Though there was not a variety of food prepared, the food was really fine pickled.

Juicy hotdog and chicken wings, delicious!

We intended to go to cyber café to play DOTA after the BBQ.

However, our plan was totally “destroyed” by the pouring rain.

The night was still young (as we were going to spend one night in Myron's house).

We had to find something to fill up our time.

So, we watched the “Jackass”.

We were laughing out loud when watching this crazy movie.

Eating shit, running around naked and all kind of crazy acts were done by the guys inside the movie.

You should check out this movie if you dun believe how crazy is it.

Dunno until what time we all went to sleep.

What a tiring day!

DIRTY DAY!

2008-09-02T19:36:00.006+08:00

30.08.08

Today the “dirty side” of my hostel was revealed.

Dirty water supplying to our hostel was really disgusting.

Let me show you some proofs,

Yellow colored water, just seemed like kopi O.

The real disgusting part was that I had to use this kopi O water to bath.

Terrible, horrible and unbelievable!

Later on, my senior, Sifu asked if we (kieth, Boon, keong and I) wanted to join him for dinner in Chang Loon cuz he think the canteens here would probably use the unclean water to cook. *( Chang Loon is a small town near my U)

For my health sake, I quickly said yes.

We dined in a restaurant inside the C Mart.

The surrounding of this restaurant was quite high class. Hard to find such place in small town like Chang Lun.
I ordered Lemon Chicken Rice + a glass of coke.
Did it seem like fine dining? (probably it seemed fine dining because of my photo snapping skill)

Dining with Boon and Kieth. Boon was busy smsing while Kieth was posing for???.

After the dinner, we went to buy daily necessity in the mall.

Two days later Bulan Ramadhan is going to start.

For your information, during Puasa, canteens here are not going to open(except during buka Puasa).

So buying things like Maggie mee is totally necessary.

At last, we went back to UUM with a full loaded car.

DOTA

2008-08-29T14:35:00.006+08:00

Much to my embarrassment when I told my friends that I didn’t play DOTA before.

Probably when you are reading this article, you will also think, “which kampong do this boy come from?”. Before this, somehow, I’m just not attracted by this kind of game.

I used to play games like minesweeper and harvest moon. Strategy games like this havn’t been touched by me before.

However, this evening, I don’t know what kind of power pushing behind me, I asked my roommates(Nano and Keong) to teach me to play this game.

Pic of my roommates and I.

Two “experts” (to me) kept explaining when I tried to figure out the uses of each button.

In the beginning, playing against no hero quite easy one. Later I “lan” game with Keong to fight against two heroes.

Guess what is the result.

We lost, though it’s just the easy level.

Dunno who’s that “rat’s shit”. (Probably is me because as you know, I’m just the beginner)

At the end, I found the game quite interesting that probably I will keep playing this game for some time.

Exam

2008-08-27T13:30:00.010+08:00

Today my mid-term accounting exam was going to be held at 8.30pm. Feeling nervous.

7.30pm Boon, Hamizan and I started to walk to DTSO( where I’m going to sit for my exam).

It was raining.

I told myself, the rain was just another obstacle for me to overcome it.

Ella, ella, under Boon’s umbrella.

1st time for me to sit for my exam at night.

This made me feel kind of weird. Maybe this is the way how the university operates.

8.30pm. lot of students waiting outside the hall. Dunno what were the lecturers doing inside, took time so long. Wasn't that the lecturers should let us go inside the hall 15 minutes earlier before the exam starts?

Look at Hamizan's face. Filled with anxiety.

*( Hamizan = chinese + malay )

Some of the questions were exactly the same one as what my lecturer discussed in my class before.

Quite confident at the beginning.

However, the end part didn’t come easy to me. Sigh…

I made many common mistakes when I was doing the transactions part. The damn “insurance expense” confused me with the damn “prepaid insurance”.

Aiyo! Lost many marks there.

Next time I should really brush up my accounting basic so that these these small mistakes won’t happen again.

Jacob, Gambateikudasai!

Back Into the "Forest"

2008-08-23T23:38:00.010+08:00

22th of August, this is the day that I m going to go back to UUM!
Thinking about the journey(from Bentong to Kuala Lumpur, again from Kuala Lumpur to Kedah ) really make me headache. My friends(Si Ming, Hui Yee, Jet Teng, Ke Sin and Jian Fei) and I boarded the Central bus at 7.3opm, from Bentong heading towards KL. The Bentong to KL bus journey took time one and a half hour. Arrived in KL, my friends and i still had to wait for another 1 and a half hour before we can board the Plusliner bus back to UUM.Believe me, the journey is really exhausting. If u dun believe, try look at the pictures below.

Poor Hui Yee and Si Ming! Two girls have to help each others to carry their luggages.

For that one and a half hour before we board the bus, we wait inside the KFC.

We sincerely wanna say "sorry" to KFC for occupying a whole table just for putting luggages. Sorry.

11pm, we were boarding the bus. The freezing temperature inside the bus keep me awake all the time.Thanks God, after torturing 7 hours inside the bus, finally we arrived in my second "home" now -UUM.

Now, i m really looking forward for the next time Hari Raya Holiday.

To my Bentong friends, a month later u will see me again. C u guys.
