Zephyrus' Odyssey

2nd decade into the new world

2010-07-30T01:32:00.002+08:00

And there goes, my 20th birthday. Started with a heartful dinner with my lovely classmates, work, and a cake with family to end it.

Darn I'm getting old ><

Back from a month of stress

2010-06-24T23:10:00.002+08:00

.

Hey peeps! Am back for a short update since I don't really have much time (nor mood) to blog much nowadays. I'm just lazy that's all =) though shutting down this blog is still far away from my thoughts. Probably won't happen. Hopefully.

Anyways yea, I'm back from a month+ of stress. Being students, stress is definitely not something new. It's old. In fact, it's soooooooooooooooooo OLD you don't wanna see it in the face anymore (if it even has one).

A presentation of mine during Communication Skills caused one of my friend to cry. ._."

This is a sample of stuffs I noted to myself for a week, right before submission for the Object Oriented Programming and Expert Systems subject:

Mon- read bk OOP n ES assignment
Tue- Do assessment, start OOP (recheck classes), ES
Wed- Separating the codes into different classes
Thu- Create bg for OOP
Fri- Filling in components for game, research earthquake detection system
Sat- Download midi-wav converter, making the game work
Sun- Add start/pause, add sounds, do javadoc comments n generate its html file, UML diagram, do ES report
Mon- Print ES report, burn OOP codes into cd

And this was just.. a snippet for the whole week of work.

My busiest semester to date ._.

Badminton and only 2 hours of work

2010-05-01T23:38:00.003+08:00

.

Just after class yesterday, my classmates and me went for badminton in USJ19. We would usually have it in the 3k sports complex nearby our college, but we tried the place nearby my house for a change.

RM12 per hour for rubber courts. Ain't it cheap? =] The only problem is that the place is quite some distance away from college, though.

Anyways, had quite a good time there. Managed to play good games most of the times. Yeap, I'm still this -close- to beating Chai. I must admit, he's good. But there will be a time when I'll defeat him. For sure! Chai this is war >=]

As usual, after badminton I would rush for work at college. Since the badminton court's nearby my house, I figured that I would take a bath at home first. But by the time I reach the workplace, it's already almost 6. And my work's supposed to start at 4 ==

To make matters worse, I forgot to bring my laptop's charger. And it's running at only 40% of it's battery life! I'll be dead bored at work if my laptop goes kaput. In which, it -did- went kaput soon enough.. Upon seeing my laptop went dead, Mr Almanzo told me I could sign off early and go.

I was like, "It's just 8.10pm! Work's supposed to end an hour later at 9!"

He was like, "Aiya nvm la, I also tired. Most students will be away for the college's cultural night, and I don't think anyone's gonna come anyway"

And I did went home. It was the first time I left work so early =]

.

"You're not an expert yet"

2010-04-25T21:11:00.002+08:00

.

Heyya~ As most of you who frequents this blog have noticed, I went missing again. Sry for that =P

Like everyone else, I'm either too busy attending to my assignments or just too lazy to blog. Or Imight be away at my desktop playing The Last Remnant. It's way too addictive! Especially since I haven't been playing any RPGs for the past few years =/

Anyway, bout a month ago or so, we've been given an assignment to watch 'Hitch' (remember the show where Will Smith plays a love doctor?) and do a review about it. It isn't exactly a very difficult assignment to complete, but it was tricky since we have to comply with some lessons learned in class.

Not that I'm complaining bout it, but when my lecturer checked it, she (expectedly) returned it with lotsa red lines in it and asked me to change them. And this kinda hurts..

"You can't give your own definitions to things cuz you're not an EXPERT!"

Dad's thumbdrive

2010-04-06T20:57:00.003+08:00

.

Since the past month, dad has been trying to learn to use the computer. Having not trusted technology and being an IT-illiterate himself, his new work has made him to be more aware on the use of computers. So yea, since then he has been trying very hard to learn from me and my sisters.

Though of course, he still has trouble understanding the difference between files and folders, save and save as, enter and backspace, copy-paste and cut-paste, etc as well as having a hard time pinpointing the cursor, highlighting/dragging, and locating folders.

And today? My dad just got a new thumbdrive from his office.

"Hey! I just got a new thumbdrive from the office"

o_o "Wah. How big is it?"

"Neh, as big as my thumb lor."

Mum's birthday

2010-04-01T21:56:00.003+08:00

.

Just recently, I ditched Kumaran and the free gym sessions for sinful meals at Taipan's Uno Pizza. Oh well, can't help it since it was my mum's birthday. =P

The best mum in the whole wide world. I lurve you mum!

Roti canai for dinner

2010-03-28T23:25:00.002+08:00

.

I've been a very good boy for the past two weeks now, saving money and eating roti canai for dinner. Now that I'm using my own money for most things (including food, petrol, season parking, yamcha, etc), I'm starting to realise how important money is especially when you don't want to depend on your parents. Not that I never realised it before, but I never really felt the pinch until now.

For a start, I tried refusing yamcha sessions sometimes. Even If I did, I would just tag along, but keep ordering to the minimal. I even gave up dinners on those RM5+ meals to settle on roti canai and a teh o ais which would cost me less than RM3.

The trick to keep yourself full with that? Flood your roti canai with the curry and dhal and whatever nice gravy they provide, so it would be more filling. Works for me. =]

The only drawback here is, my body ain't getting enough nutrients. I'm in danger of getting much thinner (not like I'm thin enough already)! Darn it.

Actually I can't do much either. I'm stuck with this diet until I receive my next salary. Mr. Daniel oh please give me my salary alreadyyyy =(

Remember when you drive..

2010-03-27T01:04:00.002+08:00

.

Remember the moments when you sat down at your car porch, staring at the cars owned by your daddy, mummy, brothers or sisters? Remember how much you wished to be old enough so that you can drive away on those cars? Legally of course.

And then, you finally got old enough to obtain a license.

Remember the moments you spent training your driving skills under the watchful eyes of your driving instructor? Remember how close you came to bang the driving cones, sped/reversed off the slope, and possibly failing your driving test?

And then, you finally got yourself the legal P driving license.

Remember the moments that after obtaining the driving license, you got nagged by your parents/siblings/friends over your too slow/too fast/too reckless driving skill? Remember how happy you got finally being able to drive out to your friends' houses and to other places? Remember how generous you got to be offering a free ride home to just almost anyone?

And then, your probational license can finally be taken out.

Remember how glad you got knowing that you can safely drive other cars without P stickers on it without getting caught by the police? Remember how you looked at other sporty Lamborghini Ferrari cars and said you will own them by a certain age?

Oh, the excitements.

Right now I'm just plain lazy to drive out. And yeah, Ju Keat agrees with me too. Do you? xD

Waiting for class to start

2010-03-25T12:53:00.002+08:00

.

Am in Wee Jay's apartment now. Have nothing to do, for the next hour til class starts. Bored ==

Earlier before I came here, I met Melissa's mum and then Isaac too. Sat there and had quite a chat with him, found out that there were few others of his batch joining Sunway too.

And hey, I think I remeber who's the girl I met the other day. Remeber the kinda pretty girl I mentioned in the previous post? I think it's Wai Ling. lol. Don't think any of you know her though. But she sure had grown from the last time I saw her.

And in case you're reading, no I didn't forget who you are. I just doubted if that was you ;P

Random encounter

2010-03-23T18:26:00.002+08:00

Today, while walking towards the nearby food court for lunch, one girl (quite pretty actually =P) came up to me and said

"Hey Jason!!"

"o_o hihi~"

"Long time no see ya.."

"Yea lu.. how long d ar?"

"Quite long lor.. bout a year or so gua.."

"Oo.. yea hor.. quite long d.."

"Yea.. where you going?"

First day of semester 4

2010-03-22T18:27:00.000+08:00

.

You know.. semester 4 classes finally started today. And the 6 subjects' names are quite catchy too.

Discrete Mathematics
Expert Systems: Implementation
Project Management 2
Web Programming 1
Object Oriented Programming
Communication Skills

What to do.. Year 2 d ma =/ Other courses do have rather interesting subject names too, such as Quantitative Techniques, Mobile Networking, Digital Electronics, Introduction to 3D Modelling, and Game Design and Development, among others. Yes, GAMES!!

And I'm stuck with programming all the way from now on. T_T

Sigh.

Anyways, class started today with Web Programming 1, and we're assigned to a (rather) new Korean lady lecturer. No offense but as expected, it was pretty difficult to understand her. Can't help it since English isn't her first language. Oh well.

Oh, and I met this kinda cute girl in the hostel while working on Friday. Hee~ =P

.

Class starting tomorrow

Pangkor revisited

2010-03-19T22:32:00.003+08:00

.

Hello! Just came back from Pangkor with my college mates. The place hasn't changed much apart from renovation works on the town, but everything else pretty much shaped up like how I remembered it to be.

A one-star hotel, but the hospitality there is very good. The hotel owner also drove us around a bit, and the people there are friendly. If you don't mind the one-star status, why not go there? ;D

More pics at my Facebook profile. Toodles!

Pee or poo first?

2010-03-14T21:35:00.004+08:00

.

Just recently, Andrew asked me something totally random during our work time. "Do you pee or poo first?"

According to him, its dependent on the gender. Guys usually poo before they pee, and girls the opposite; they pee before they poo.

Won't the situation vary everytime you go to the toilet? It can be either way right? Tell me whaddya think. =]

.

Petsiblings?

2010-03-12T00:52:00.004+08:00

.

How many of you went through the experience of having petsiblings (or korkor jiejie muimui didi abang kakak angkat) before? And how many of you retained (or will retain) that relationship until the times after you leave school life into college life, or when you started working?

Being one myself, I do have my own share of experiences. But from time to time, I do ask myself, "Why do I wanna have petsisters?".

Some may say, 'having' petsiblings are the then-trend. Say says petsiblings are just replacements for single people who don't have girlfriends or boyfriends yet. Some do it just for fun.

Personally, I (tend to) want younger petsisters because I don't have a muimui at home. I don't deny that the truth of the factors mentioned above, but perhaps this was really why I started having them in the first place. I do have older petsisters, and since they are away most of the time, I miss them lots.

My petsisters are mostly my juniors in the school, mostly made up of random close chit-chats overnight. Starting this relationship is one thing, and maintaining them is the, well, hard (?) part. Much like those bf/gf relationships most of you have already heard of, to me, having petsisters are like having additional members in the family. Of course, young, naive kids like us always misinterpret and have misunderstanding on this relationship with each other. I tried to keep us close together, but I often messed up the way (come on, I may not be that mature after all).

You know.. whether I call you petsis, muimui, baka, whatever it is, I love you all to bits. Whatever terms we refer to each other, you all are like my own sisters. This isn't the kind of bonds you should easily call it quits just like how bf/gf could.

However, just recently, the muimui that I had been very close with for the past few years, told me that "I can't bring myself to call you korkor anymore". I knew she would say this someday, looking at how she'd changed after she left high school into collegehood. She seemed so happy with her life now in which I guess, as a friend, I should be supporting her. Right? I'm still a lil sad that she will think this way, though.

Of course, not everyone thinks like I do. I've had numerous such 'petsisters', but only few of them still calls me their 'korkor'. I don't know why but everytime I hear them call me 'korkor', my day is instantly lit up. A smile decorates my faces immediately.

I don't know how long will this relationship last, but I hope the memories will be kept. No one says we cannot have bf/gf with petsiblings though.

Dear baka, I love you all! You know who you are. =)

After 2 months..

After 2 months, you finally opened a conversation window to me. But I know, we won't be able to talk like how we used to anymore.

Or can we?

Ipoh overnite trip

2010-03-08T23:05:00.003+08:00

.

Hey yo! I'm back. Anyone noticed?

The holidays are back again! Since we just went through a short semester, this break's gonna be for 2 short weeks as well. Just came back from an overnight trip to Ipoh last night with Annie, Ju Keat, Andrew and Edric (the driver XD). We pretty much stuffed ourselves with food throughout the whole trip, though Annie didn't really get to show us to all the places she wanted. Our stomachs just couldn't take it anymore. XD

Now that the holidays are here, I'm gonna have to think bout what I can do (and should do) again.. hopefully they are beneficial. Oh! I still have a few more episodes of Dragonball Z to go. Hee~

Our stock to keep awake while driving there

The range of foods available in one local coffee shop (nice~)

Hakka mee which I confused with Hokkien mee

And if we're not eating? Playing cards!

For more pics just have a look in my facebook profile..There were still lots of food pics which I forgot to take ==

2 months after it happened, I still can't exactly tell if I've completely gotten over her. Sure I've stopped thinking bout it, but at times the moments we had still popped out out of nowhere. The good thing is, I'm not as upset anymore. All I wanted is just to really be wanted. Right now, I just couldn't bring myself to say "I'm happy to be single"

Deep inside I'm still searching.

.

Deja vu?

2010-02-03T00:53:00.003+08:00

.

She (you know who) has a new bf now. Barely 2 weeks after we broke up. Apparently she never learns how to appreciate what she had.

It's alrite, I'm having fun watching how the -shameless third party guy- trying desperately to get her. Sometimes its really just so funny. Haha! About why I say he's shameless? This is what he admitted himself:

"jason:even im in 3 party then so wat??even in 2nd party oso not important...more important that is you hv to care that person not to salahkan her,am i rite??position is nt importnt ..you noe what is TRUE LOVE stand for???"

You judge.

I'm not entirely against him 'lecturing' me about love (which I doubt he even understands it) and third party second party all those stuffs, but I really don't appreciate the fact that he kept using God's name to back his so-called TRUE LOVE. The way I see it now, it's permissible by God (according to him) to interrupt and cause tension in other people's relationships. Please tell me if I'm wrong.

But come to think of it.. Everything that has happened, is a deja vu of my past.. Everything that has happened, hit me back, harder each time. That's what making me stronger each time I face a problem. I'm trying to be optimistic when the people around me are being pessimistic. I try to comfort, to encourage, to support. I may be standing now but sometimes, I need a shoulder to lean on too..

Sometimes, I just wish I can sit down face-to-face with someone I'm really close to and just tell them my feelings.

I'm just so predictable, ain't I?

.

=(

2010-01-17T15:12:00.004+08:00

.

It's ironic to have a heartbroken post right after its happier counterpart. Yea me and Rachel are no longer together.

Not happy with the -guy- who indirectly caused this.

Around a month ago, I was convinced that I've found the right girl for me, one that will stay together for a long time. One that has convinced me enough to be able to stay that long. I was convinced that her past will not repeat itself..

At least, not on us.

Barely a month together, you started having doubts over our relationship. Right after this -guy- shared something that stirred your heart, you started ignoring my messages with all kinds of excuses intolerable to a couple. You don't check your phone when I messaged you? That just means you don't even care if your boyfriend tried to reach you, do you?

I tried to convince myself again and again the situation is not as bad as I thought. I continued trying to reach you, even when you responded to just a tenth of it. Even those replies, I can feel they are made just out of 'giving me face and reply'.

You asked for time and space to think. I did.

And then you finally said you wanna be single again just because you felt you're so flower-hearted? I told you before I wouldn't mind that, but you just won't forgive yourself right? You just feel so bad, so guilty, you just wanna be single again. Okay then, since you tell it to me I respect your decision. Sure I'm disappointed with you, but I won't go around nagging you for breaking up with me. It's your decision after all.

Now that we're done, I'm sure the happiest guy now would be Vincent. Congrats! Now go do what you want with her. I wouldn't care less. If you get her, congrats again! And you better not be using God's name just to be with her.

If within this short period of time, Rachel, you got another bf, it would solidify the fact that you broke up with me just because you lose interest in me. Then again, it wouldn't matter anymore will it?

Go on with your life, get more mature and stop feeling guilty over your past. Do that while I sit here and take a few weeks to try and forget bout you. It's harder for me to forget about you than you forget about me.

Hopefully, we'll still keep in touch as friends. And thank you for the sweet (though barely a month) moment we spent together. *forces a smile*

<3 Rachel <3

Hsien was pestering me to update, so yeah. Here's one. =P

My holidays so far can be described in one sentence.. It's the same as the previous holidays! Made holiday resolutions, hardly anything done. All I could do is just sit in front of my laptop, fb-ing away or playing games occasionally. I wanna watch my movies and animes but I always got dragged to do other stuffs. XD

Seriously, I need to do something beneficial. *sigh*

Holiday's ending in a lil more than a week, and work's starting this monday. Network support shouldn't be too much of a job, or hopefully it's just nice to make the work worth working (by worth working I don't exactly means idling in there all day long).

School fees haven't pay. =/

Gotta apply scholarship again. =/

Gonna start lessons again soon. =/

Windows 7 still havent install. =/

I miss her. =(

Most of you might have already known, but yeah, I've got a new sweetheart by the name of Rachel. She's actually my first real love, and she's a Christian (yay!!), and she's not as (a lil too) young compared to my ex. And I'm happy! Ever since the previous incident I prayed to find someone like her.. And I found Rachel.

Thank you God <33

Ain't kiddy love anymore.. Will appreciate her and make every moment with her precious. Right now she's on the way back from Singapore, should be arriving in a few more hours' time.. I'm missing her already. ><

Why can't you understand the fact that I'm Rachel's bf? Leave her alone please ==

Oh well.. hopefully she gets back safely. Looking forward to our next outing!

<3 Rachel <3

2 months' absence

It's been 2 months since I last updated. o_o Anyone missed me?

Gosh.. the past month especially had been really hectic.. There was 2 nights that I didn't even sleep, just for the sake of completing the assignments. Well, at the very least the results are worth it. After all that, now I'm

FREEEEEEEEEEEE =D

I can't guarantee any speedy updates since I last stopped, but I do hope I could complete most of my, well, holiday 'resolutions' XD

The list includes watching the anime/movies/dramas that I've downloaded and stored for so long, change to Windows 7, read the bible, practice using the house' Wira and Kelisa, rearrange the stuffs in my room.. and I don't know what else.

Hmm. Gotcha. =)

Mid-term break, again

2009-10-05T22:55:00.004+08:00

.

Holidays has started again! for a week, at least. For some reason I'm not sure about, I don't really feel excited about it. Perhaps, I'm already used to it. No, not used to the holidays feeling, but used to the loads of assignments GIVEN to do during the holidays. It almost made no difference between attending college or not. Haha!

Although, of course, it is still a good excuse to take a break and go on an outing with my coursemates. You guys rock. ;)

Still, with the ongoing assignments, I hope I could still find the mood to go out.. Operating Systems and Systems Analysis and Design is due next week.. and I still have about 7000-9000 words to complete the Internet Fundamentals report. Still complaining bout SPM's 360 words? Sap sap sui lu.. =P

"You dare not do my assignments?"

Rubik's cube, a programmer's game?

The class's top programmers apparently loves solving the Rubik's cube. Both Andrew and Wee Jay could spend the whole day in class solving it again and again. If they're not busy with assignments, then a Rubik's cube would be in their hands most of the time.

I think I need to start having this hobby too. ==

FOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODS =DD

This month itself I've had 3 buka puasa treats.. The foods are actually more or less the same, but they taste great nevertheless! Though sometimes the foods are tasteless, it's something we look forward to almost everyday during the fasting month.

Feast your eyes!! ;D

Before we unwrap the foods

At DS class, again

2009-09-10T10:00:00.002+08:00

I'm blogging secretly from Database Systems class, again! =P

I'm done with the current work anyway. Secret or not,doesn't matter lah. The slow pace she's going is making most of us sleepy (especially during her lectures), but at least I could make sure I know what I'm doing.

Anyway! Me and my classmates went to the Ramadhan Bazaar in the nearby housing area to buy our buka puasa treat yseterday. Buka puasa foods sold are always smell so good and are so mouth-watering, but something when you bought them home you might be disappointed with the taste and texture.

Chicken butts remind me of Crystal. =P

*ahem*

Roti jalar, ayam goreng berempah, satay, kuih piring, sago, mi goreng, nasi briyani.. Foods that are truly Malaysian!

Now that the foods are gone, my patriotism mode is off. =]

I've finally got my lappie!! I guess it could be considered as a birthday gift from my dad, though the occasion didn't seem like it. Anyways, thanks for buying me one dad!I know you won't be reading this, but here, I said it. XD

It's Dell's Inspiron 14. I was initially planning to buy the Inspiron 13 after recommendations from both my sis' bfs, but I found out that the latter does not have a CD drive (in other words, can't play any CDs inside).

Not exactly a big deal, but later on I found out (thought my sis' bf again) that Inspiron 14's also selling at a reasonable price. The graphic card inside this lappie is integrated with the processor and not a stand-alone one. Not much of a prob too me since I won't be playing much games.. And the screen's bigger by an inch too. So why not? =)

Anyways, here are the pics!

Directing legend

2009-07-26T20:55:00.003+08:00

.

Yasmin Ahmad, the director behind Sepet, Gubra, Talentime and few other Malaysian movies, plus scenes of various commercial ads that evoke emotions from the public, has passed away last night (25 July 2009).

Sad to say, I don't watch any of her movies. Yet. =/

Just like other icons, though they're gone, their legacy is left behind. Her movies will remain eye-opening, her name will remain legendary among Malaysian directors. Rest in peace ya =/

"Heyy" vs. "Hi"

2009-07-21T21:37:00.003+08:00

.

This idea popped up in my head suddenly.

What is your reply when people pop up a chat message with you online? It doesn't matter which instant messaging softwares you use (MSN, Yahoo!, Skype, Google Talk, ICQ, IRC etc.), even in games when you play with other people. Just what would your written reply be (the same if you were to start up a chat with someone)?

A formal "Hello"?
An intimate "Harlow"?
A casual "Hey"?
A friendly "Heyya"?
A hippy "Yo"?
Or just a simplistic "Hi"?

My personal reply depends on my mood. However, though, I use "Heyy" most of the time. So I felt like contrasting the use of "Heyy" and "Hi", in my opinion at least. =)

If I were to go back in time, my reply varies according to my circle of influence. Of course, I'm quite sure I used to "Hi" when I first ventured into the cyberworld. As I met more people online, the way I talk (or in this case, type) changed gradually. Right now, I usually go "Heyy". For a good reason.

I find it less appealing to use "Hi" cuz, well, it sounded very dull as compared to the other forms of greetings (unless of course, I'm in a very dull mood at the moment). Imagine someone coming up to you with a friendly "Yo!" and you reply with a dull "Hi". In other words..

I'M A VERY FRIENDLY FELLA n I LOVE TO TALK =)) [<3 mua babeh muaxx] says:
Yo!
im bored says:
Hi

See the difference? An expressive statement countered by a dull one. Not that I'm condemning the use of a simple "Hi", but I felt that an overuse of it make the person seem not so bersemangat (not enthusiastic). After all, the way you type out your words determines how you're 'speaking' in the virtual world. As an example:

Hi
can be modified into:

Hiii
Hi!
Hi =D
Hi..

Notice the great impact it'll give your words just by adding a few dots or an emoticon to it, or even extending it by a few characters? Imagine how it could affect the whole sentence.

Hi can you help me do a survey?
and also

Hiii can you help me do a survey?
Hi! can you help me do a survey?
Hi =D can you help me do a survey?
Hi.. can you help me do a survey?

Which of the ones mentioned above you think sounds the most enthusiatic?

I still prefer my "Heyy". I guess I could consider it a tribute to my onee-chan, Arigatou Aishite (her net name), who actually influenced me enough to use it. Though she might not know I still remember her.. I don't know.

I miss you ne. =)

Bon Odori, a sort-of reminiscence of the past

Ever heard of Bon Odori? It is basically a Japanese festival and it is held annually at Shah Alam, Selangor and in Penang. For more info, click HERE. =)

This is my first time attending the festival since I heard bout it when I was in Form 2. So yea, less talk, more pics please =)

View from the side

See the tiny little balloon in the sky?

These two poor Japanese kids has all the attention there =]

While I'm happy to be there, Bon Odori reminded me of the past.

I miss you, and you.. *sigh*

Math and Science blues, again..

2009-07-15T00:44:00.004+08:00

.

First of all, I applaud the Ministry of Education for (finally, after a friggin' long time) deciding on which language Mathematics and Science will be taught on. But you'll have to ruin the applause by saying it's gonna revert back to Bahasa Malaysia.

For your information, I'm the first batch if students learning Maths and Science in English since it's introduction 2003. The transition had indeed given me a hard time to cope as I'm not good in English at that time. And nope, my English didn't improve due to the switch, but from fanfictions reading/writing which I took up later on.

Even if it were to remain in BM, it won't necessarily mean I'll be better in it, nor will I use it more often in my daily conversations. Even if we're forced to 'speak' Maths and Science in BM, at most we'll just mention the terms in BM, and then revert back to the language we're comfortable speaking in; English, Cantonese, Mandarin, Hokkien , Tamil, Hindi, Japanese Korean Indonesian you name it. Tell me, how can 'national unity' be enforced this way?

Didn't anyone realise we're so good at rojak-ing? I find it more of a pride than a disgrace of languages, as it defines who we truly are. Yes I'm proud of rojak-ing. Has it eroded my grasp of languages? No. But hey, that's not the main point here.

I hear that some parties argue that Mathematics and Science being taught in English is harder to understand and thus, the reason many students fail in their tests and examinations. I also hear something like this: "When teachers teach these subjects in English, students cannot understand and concentrate, so they sleep in class." If they teach in BM but if students still don't understand it, would they still be awake too? You guys jduge.

Now now, I'm sure my batch has also experienced problems such as teachers who are unable to teach properly in English. While it is true that we might not learn much (or should I say, properly) from them, a student who really wishes to learn do not get their knowledge solely on the teachers alone, but they find their resources elsewhere too. Rather than listening alone, they will 'help out' during the lessons, pointing out the errors and such.

There's nothing embarrassing to have students correct teachers, because no one's perfect. My Physics teacher previously struggles with English sentences during her lessons, often spitting out sentences with missing 'is', going "What the measurement of vernier clip..", "What the result you all get ah?" Laugh, but remember we have our own weaknesses as well.

Ask any students my age "Do you find learning Maths and Science in English helpful in college/university life?" and you'll find that most of the answers are yes. Obviously. All the terms we learn here are in English. Perhaps other government universities or matriculation centres had it in BM, I don't know. However, it would be easier for us to go further with a strong grasp in English (the terms at least). I'm having a headache right now so I can't think of the right words but anyway I meant it benefits us in the long run, in the futuristic view.

After more than six years of using us as guinea pigs (which, thankfully, beared fruits for me), I really wonder if they gathered statistics fully from ALL of us. If they're not listening to the voice of the people, I wonder whose voice do they listen to then.

I have no power by myself, but I do hope we can have our children learning Mathematics and Science in English too. Not to 'erode national unity', but for their future's sake.

This is my generation, and this is OUR voices.

I just got reminded of the times when I used to have study groups in my house or my friend's house last time. We would get so hyped up talking bout studying later on that day, but in the end, we'll end up slacking around, talking and playing more when we should be studying.

All is not lost though, for we still LEARNED something from it. Well, most of the time that is. It was fun, and it still is. Provided you have friends who are as lazy as you are. =))

Right now I'm in Vo San's house. Planned to stay for a night here while trying to revise for the Principles of Programming finals which will be held later this week. As I promised, I came after dinner. And when I reached d...

Taken without permission =))

That's why I'm blogging now lor. Looks like there won't be any revision til the morning! =D~

Hm.. maybe I should find the Transformers game here and play for a while. *ransacks the comp*

Make-up assignment 2 SUCCESS

2009-07-10T22:20:00.004+08:00

.

A nice parking spot under the tree branches =))

If you've read the previous post, yeap, my AI works just got plagiarised and I've got a 0 for my coursework. How fair is that?

Anyway, since we were gonna have badminton as early as 11.30am(early to me =) ) today, I figured that I'll go to see my lecturer to discuss if there are ways to get my marks back. Strictly speaking, I can't get them back. Rules are rules: Those who allow AND those who are caught plagiarising will be slapped with an instant 0.

It's really unfair on my side as I've put in the efforts and what they did was just copying. (even I copied others, but only AFTER I understood the concept before doing it) Of course, they just clearly don't understand what they're even doing so they just blatantly copy EVERYTHING. Since when adding spaces in between lines of codes became 'modification'?

Luckily, after few meetings with the lecturer and the school's head of department, Dr. Mike's decided to give us a last chance to redo the assignment. Of course, the requirements are slightly different this time. At the very least I'm given a second chance.. And guess what. I did IT!! Am so happy! Will surely get lower mark than the previous one d, but few marks are better than nothing la.

My lunch, after the make-up assignment

In the end..

..cannot play badminton d.. my racquet still lying inside the car T.T

Since morning I'd been praying that the lecturer would go easy on me and allow me to redo the assignment.. It got answered. Thank you God! =))

The next would be for securing a decent grade for this subject itself.. Pray for me ya =)

Harlow. My last test was finally over yesterday. I'm very happy. =]

But my final exams are all starting next week. Now I'm sad. =[

Anyways, it has been a pretty hectic week. We not only have to prepare for the test, but we have (almost all) assignments with due dates last week. Now that it's finally done, I could relax a little while waiting for the following week to arrive. Finals. Darn.

But after this is finished I'm done with my first semester in degree! ..and then there's semester two three four five sex seven..

I've got a slightly -new- header btw. I've actually planned to make one right after the Walk for the Children event, but I'd, as usual, procrastinated it until now. No one's demanding me to do it, so nvm la. Dunnid apologise to anyone. =]

Anyway, today's Joan's birthday! I'm feeling quite lazy d wanna type you so many things.. hope yesterday's call enough d ya? XD

Happy burfday anyway bud! Let's see if I can deliver any presents to Johor. Haha..

Hmm.. Think I'm gonna watch Rush Hour 3 now.

Death of a legend

2009-06-27T00:50:00.004+08:00

.

As most of you would have already known, Michael Jackson, aka the King of Pop, had died due to cardiac arrest yesterday (Friday) around 5.20am Malaysian time. I just came to know about it earlier in the morning when I heard about it over in the radio.

I was kinda caught by surprise at first, but come to think of it, I do notice that I've been hearing more and more legends/icons/famous people's death. Not that it's a celebrity death pandemic going on, but it's just a lil something I noticed.

As far as I could remember, the first person whose death I actually pay attention to is wrestler Eddie Guerrero, who died of drug overdose/cardiac arrest. Subsequently, one of his best friends, Chris Benoit, who's also a wrestling veteran, also died.

I also remembered writing up a blog post about former prime minister's wife's death sometime back (in my old blog if I'm not wrong).

Without following the order of dates, there's also the death of one of Animal Planet's cheery animal lover, Steve Irwin, who died after being pierced through the chest from a stingray's tail barb.

And now we have Michael Jackson.

It reminds of just how fragile we are. No matter how well-built or famous a person is, they cannot run away from death. While some fantasy/science-fiction movies may suggest immortality or extending one's lifespan, I doubt they'll be real. Not now, at least.

Ignoring the child molestation charges, suing by various parties, selling of the Neverland ranch, constant hiding, skin bleaching and numerous plastic surgeries, he has undeniably left a mark inside the hearts of millions, perhaps billions, of people all around the world with his songs. Forgive me if I'd entered any inaccurate information for I am not his fan. Nevertheless, he will still remain as the King of Pop in the hearts of many no matter what happens.

My hats off to you.

Playing with turtles

2009-06-25T02:26:00.005+08:00

.

Do you know that turtles are nice to play with? Really. They're really interesting little creatures. Easily recognisable with a big shell behind their back and their super-shy attitude, you could play with them for a whole day and not get bored of it. You could make them move forward 1 step, or maybe 10, even 100 steps (and they're FAST!). You can turn them to face other directions, make them check their surroundings and react accordingly, and many many more. You can even change their colours! And when you're bored of them, you could just kill them. They won't spill blood, don't worry.

Wanna play? Download one here and enjoy!

Warning : You may get overly frustrated when things don't work sometimes though.

I might be getting a lappy soon. Weee~ =]

Sick twice in a week

2009-06-05T17:05:00.003+08:00

.

Monday

I woke up energised and ready for college. Took my usual biscuit to eat on the way, got ready and drove myself to class. I was fine but I eventually felt weaker and feverish as class progressed. It got worse later on, and it's almost a life gamble trying to manoeuvre (or is it manuevre?) through traffic under the drizzle.

At least I got home safely.

Tuesday

My fever got worse. My whole body's aching and I'm almost lifeless on the bed whole day long.

Wednesday

Finally gotten much better! Now I could walk around without my body muscles tiring out after like 1 second of usage. Am pretty I could get 100% by the next day.

Thursday

Flu and cough caught up with me. =.= It got so bad my fever's back again. And.. I'm bed-ridden once more.

Friday

Though not as feverish as yesterday, I'm still feeling the effects of the sickness. Am still not that fit to go to college yet though. Now? Pondering when I'll get well. Sigh.

p/s - Don't worry it's not a high fever. most probably not H1N1 either. ;) *CHOI*

THE LONG ANTICIPATED WALK FOR THE CHILDREN IS FINALLY OVER!!!!!!!!

With at least 5 crew members that have fallen sick after that. And I'm proud to say I'm one of those lucky sick crew members. =D

Okay, perhaps not so lucky. Due to this sickness I've missed few days of classes, few days of Medan foods, Terminator Salvation, and possible an upcoming Shogun buffet lunch too. Darn. I want the last two for now especially. T_T

Anyway, I'm still sick. I don't know what to update now. Am only doing this cuz this blog felt dead. So yeah.

Will upload some of the event pics when I can k?

Teacher's Day reminiscence - Outstanding teachers

2009-05-23T21:27:00.004+08:00

.

Just felt like posting up pics of some of the outstanding teachers during my secondary school year time. =)

Pn. Ameza - Class / Modern Maths teacher

One of the most timid teacher's I've ever had, Pn. Ameza's both my class teacher and Modern Maths teacher of class 06/07. In fact, I've come to know her since Form 1, as she, too, teaches us basic Maths since then.

She's one of the friendliest teacher around, and her patience in handling our wild 5 Utarid class deserves a recognition. By us at least. =)

She's fun to be with, very bubbly, and dedicated in her work. I'm very sure most of us in the class loves her. =D

Pn Ruzina - Bahasa Malaysia teacher

Pn. Ruzina is perhaps the teacher that possess the most motherly quality. She, too, patiently guides us through the complex Bahasa Malaysia grammars, correcting every single mistakes that we make. As a result, most of us managed to score our Bahasa Malaysia papers, all thanks to her dedication and hard work.

This happened durng exam time.. *dang*

Pn. Maslinda - English teacher

Undeniably the most sporting teacher to ever teach us, Pn. Maslinda's a very straightforward person who will speak her mind out and no one shall stop her from doing it. Aggressive yet sporting, she's one of those teachers who you'll either love or loathe, depending on which side she shows to you most. She's our English teacher, and you could expect shoutings most, if not all, of the time.

Her famous quote: "Rule 1, Pn. Maslinda is always right. Rule 2, if she's ever wrong, REFER back to Rule 1."

Pn. Rohana - Discipline / Physics teacher

Let's be frank and neutral. A LOT of students hate her. The simple reason: She's the school's discipline teacher. Normal lah. =]

Though as aggressive as Pn. Maslinda, she's not too well-received by the class perhaps due to the way she conducts the class. I will not elaborate much on that here.

Nevertheless, she's my boss (I'm a prefect ma ==) too. On a lighter note, only few of us saw her softer side. Perhaps.. that's why that 'us' could get along with her. =)

Pn. Banon - Current Senior Assistant

Pn. Banon's pretty much the combination of everyone above. Though she doesn't personally teach our class, we're still pretty much attached to her due to her involvement in the disciplinary board in the past.

She's as aggressive as she is passive, as strict as she is gentle, as big as she is small. We love her. =)

En. Shahrin - Discipline teacher

Ask anyone in the school which teacher they fear most and most probably you'll receive "En. Shahrin" as the answer. In the school, he is as strict as a solid steel bar; hard to bend, and hurts if hit.

Outside the school? It's a whole different story.

Sing with me! 1 2 3 4~

If our school and country permits use of torture during interrogations, he could easily be the head of it. =]

En. Abdul Aziz - Scouts teacher

En. Abdul Aziz is perhaps the teacher I respect the most. Though he did not presonally teach me anything in the class, he's my Scouts teacher. And gosh he's just so patient.. Since the Scouts troop in our school is highly immobile due to lack of leadership, he's really trying his best to bring it up to the state level. And with me as the president of the club.. I just feel hopeless. Cuz I know nothing bout Scouts. =/

This may sound gay, but I actually miss him. As my teacher. XD

Tuition teachers

Pn. Leong - Physics teacher

During the period of year 2006/2007, Pn. Leong was my Physics tuition teacher. She's perhaps the most prominent among the other two tuition teachers at that time (Add Math and Chemistry), most probably due to the personal and undivided attention that she gave to us. Her class was always filled with nifty gadgets and experiments rather than focusing on theories alone.

And among the two other tuitions I mentioned earlier, I'd only managed to make friends in her class. Julian, Samantha, Caleb, Yet Han, Woan Jen, and few more.. =)

Mr. Muniandy - Tuition teacher since Standard 1

*no pics LOL*

Take note: He's my tuition teacher since Standard 1. =D That sure is a long time eh.

I remember him most for the advices he always give us.. and he's always correcting every small mistakes that we make. Our handwriting, our behaviours in class, our methods of learning.. All these small little things that impact our lives later on. His classes never feel like a cage. It is always our home.

He'll difinitely be a teacher that I'll never forget. =)

I think that's pretty much all. This post is.. long. ==

Irony

2009-05-22T23:14:00.006+08:00

.

Sometime back, she questioned that how can someone leave her after giving her feelings like that. And then she got together with him, a sweet underground duo as they can be, and yet after some time she left him.

It felt like a deja vu, but on the other side of the party. The reverse. An irony.

He felt like he was being used. Perhaps that's just his own thoughts.

"Get over it dammit"

Teacher's Day reminiscence - 2 years ago

2009-05-17T21:47:00.005+08:00

.

Teacher's Day was yesterday! And I felt bad for posting something about them a day late. T_T though its not like I MUST update something bout that. It's just an obligation Oh well.

Thinking back, I do have some really good teachers who had done so much to shape me into who I am today. Yeap, I AM close with many many teachers especially during secondary school days, but only a handful among them are the closest to me. They are more like a friend to me than teachers who just lecture in front and ignore everything else. In short, I just love my teachers! Though not everyone does. =]

Without further cliches, let's take a look back at my school's Teacher's Day celebration 2 years ago. I just happened to come across these in my photo album and as usual, nostalgia kicks in. =P

Farah and me, emcees of the day. =)

Look, so many gifts for them!

Even a cake for them too!

Shortly after, the event begins!

The waving lady's my school's then headmistress.

Teachers taking their oath.

The happenings..

See? We're so serious in our work. Either that or I dozed off. XD

Indian dance =]

The teacher in the centre is the Senior Assistant in the school.. The rest are my juniors (all except 2). I miss each and every one of them. =(

I actually sang on this day.. But I've decided not to upload it. It's not just embarassing, it's gonna super bore you! And you wouldn't understand what I sang anyway. =P

Walk for the Children header

2009-05-14T02:16:00.003+08:00

.

After almost 3 hours of planning and futile implementation, the header's finally done.

*stares at header*

Messy. Pictures don't match. A little too crowded. Informations are not complete. Now it seemed like the event is free, for all.

Remember ah, registration fee is RM10! I just don't know how to put it in. =/

*sigh*

Sleepy.

Go with the flow

2009-05-12T00:04:00.004+08:00

As of late, I've been wondering about what qualities do I still lack in trying to be a better person. No doubt, I'm not the wisest person around, nor am I the smartest. This year in particular though, I've been trying to figure out what brings out the charm in everyone (read: myself, mostly). There have been few times that I felt like I'm in the top of the world, but to date, it's mostly overconfidence and false hopes.

How often do you have a skyrocketed relationship and one that also comes crashing down just as fast? =P

Am I mature? Perhaps. I do seem to handle lots of things in a steady manner nowadays, compared to my reckless style last time. Since that incident a year ago, I've grown more patient and optimistic towards any problems I face now. Maybe I'm heading into the right direction here.

But.. Am I ever natural enough? I used to think so, but I'm already starting to doubt myself about this recently. I've been planning too much for my life, too obsessed with perfection in everything. I hold on to this saying, "Being perfect is a curse", and yet I've been trying to become one without me realising it. The happiness I've been trying to pursue is slowly turning into a perfection, a curse.

Oh gosh, why didn't I realise this sooner.. Chances have slipped away from my hand time after time, all mainly because of my excessive plannings.

Thanks for pointing it out Cindy.. I might not have realised this if you didn't tell me about it.

The timing is different for everyone.. I might just be earlier than you, but it doesn't mean I'm any better. Go with the flow.. I thought that I wouldn't be having -one- til at least another year but voila! Just a short one month and it happened. So sudden and yet natural, and I'm liking every moment of it. Like he said..
I could just kiss you all day long. Quote not by me. =)

God must have a plan for all this, I believe. It may, after all, turn out to be a blessing in disguise. =)

Crash Test Mummy Appreciation Day

2009-05-10T22:52:00.005+08:00

.

aka Mummy's Day. Have you dedicated today specially to her? =)

To celebrate today, we took her for dinner at Taipan's Daorae - Korean BBQ! Haven't actually tried the food there before, so my sister suggested that we go there for dinner.

This one, this one, and thaaaat one!

You could see from the pic that the sun's shining directly onto our seat. The place was hot, air-conds ain't turned on earlier, and we're barbeque-ing things right in front of us. It's hot. HOT!

My sis and her bf

My two sisters

Turn the air-cond on.. It's HOT here!

And of course, the main guest today..

Pork? Beef? Chicken?? O.o

My beloved mummy. =D

And then came the food.

*drools*

Makan makan!

Nothing much to comment bout the food.. If you like Korean food, then you might like it here. I find the taste is not worth the price, but it's just nice if you're eating it just for the sake of trying it.

RM200+......?

Expensive le..

Wait ah, I call my bank see got enough money onot..

Anyways, whatever the price and taste, today is dedicated to our long-lasting crash test mummy. Though I do not have much to give to you yet, I hope this blog post is sufficient, for you.

Happy Mummy's Day, mummy dear. =) *kiss*

Blog post #101 - Walk for the Children announcement

2009-05-10T00:17:00.007+08:00

.

I have been a very bad guy as of late.. In both good and a bad way. For instance, I haven't been updating anyway for almost a month along already. And I didn't update the things that you guys voted for. My bad, I'm sorry. =P

I mean, really. For the past month that I've been absent, I've been real busy with college stuffs, mostly. Of course some life stuffs do interfere too..

Anyways, right now my mid-term break has just STARTED! If you felt like going anything, do call me along k? It can get pretty boring here being holed up in home. =)

One short month, and yet so many things had happened.. Some good things. A couple of bad stuffs. Stress, confusion, nostalgia, bittersweet (though more to sweet =) ) moments all blended together within an almost 30-day period.

For a moment, let's forget about the past. Currently I'm involved in a Moral Studies project in which we are organising a fund-raising event for the children of Harvest Centre (resources will be channeled mainly to their education). We could just do a simple community service and get high marks for our so-called assignment there, but we're risking it all in this event. The details?

Event: Charity Walk Sunway 2009 " Walk for the Children".
Venue: Field of Sunway University
College Time: 7am - 1230pm
Date: Saturday, 30th May 2009.
Participating fee: RM10 (include tshirt + goodie bag)

Activities: Performances(Hip Hop, Breakdance, Cheerleading & Special Performance by Harvest Center children) and Lucky Draw.

Contact: 012-9744 225 (Christina)

Of course, organising an event wouldn't be easy with us newbies doing it. Good thing we do have a team of dedicated people working on it, pushing their own limits though none of us (I think) have done this before. Not a large-scale event, at least.

Stress is guaranteed, scoldings are to be received, and eyebrows have definitely been raised. Tension are rising everywhere. None of us here like the discomfort anymore than anyone else feeling it does. Not too sure bout the others, but I'm confident it'll benefit us, one way or the other.

Nevertheless, it has started, and it will be done. Fellow Moral Studies student of School of Computer Technology and School of Business and Law, reach our target goal or not, let's be proud of what we've all achieved then, k? Work hard guys!! =)

*ahem*

JOIN US AND LETS WALK FOR THE CHILDREN!!

Contact me or Christina (012-9744 225) or Annie (017-6633 076) for more details. See you guys there. =D

Ex FITM-er : Wee Jay

2009-04-10T21:44:00.007+08:00

.

Introducing the final member in my semester's FITM, Wee Jay! Let's all give him a round of applause. *ahem* Thank you! I syok sendiri. =]

I programmed this shirt with codes so that it looks shiny. It's quite easy to make. It can be a cool jacket, can use for shuffling dances, a torchlight in the dark, can save people's life, can yada yada yada..

When I first met him, I thought he's just another cool, big guy who's trying out his luck on the computing field. He's wears spectacles. He has spiky hairs. He's big. He's cool. So yeah.

Boss in blue. =X

Turned out that I was really wrong though. He may not be as proficient in languages and concepts, but he has a natural talent in understanding and creating programming codes. He's also highly skilled in mathematics, earning him the top spot in mahematics quizzes, tests and exams all the time. I'm so jealous.. Hmmp.

Wait first ah, I roll up my sleeves first..

These are among the skills I can use..

Currently the only fella from my semester who's doing Computer Science with me, I do feel kinda stressed. No, not just because the course itself is hard, but being next to the genius itself is hard! I gotta catch up with his pace.. He's too fast for me. T.T

You know how's a genius' way of studying? Sleep in class!!

Sien la class..

*yawns*

ZzzZzZzzzz...

Warning : Am not responsible for any dropping in grades caused by following this guide. =]

Nevertheless, he's still a good friend to have around. He may be a silent person at times, but he, too, could crack technical jokes that would just 'zha' you. A rather funny person. =D

TFK!!! (Taiko Flying Kick) =]

Go arcade play PSP.. =]

NAH!!

Shiny!

And a personal fav.

10-hand Wong 'Tai' Wee Jay =D

That's it for the ExFITM-ers in my semester. I don't have anyone else to blog bout in my semester except for, of course, myself. Perhaps I could blog about the Ex FITM-ers one semester earlier than me. Or maybe I should just blog about random things from now.

I just kinda feel like letting you guys vote again.. Which one do you think I should blog next? Remember though, no one can escape! XD So, you choose. =)

Toodles.

.

Ex FITM-er : Sung Ho

2009-04-05T22:22:00.004+08:00

.

At the very least we have more than 10 people who voted for the next person I'm gonna feature soon. So this is YOUR decision, SUNG HO shall be my feature guess for today. ;D

So now, should you be happy or sad that you've been voted? I don't know. You decide. But you're not escaping. >=]

Whenever I see this guy, I always thought of Wee Jay. It quite normal guess, considering that I always see them both almost together all the time. Both of them (and Vo San too) stay under one roof, I guess that's natural. =)

This pic's a double-edge sword ==

Sung Ho's also known as Mr. 7 in my class. Why exactly Mr. 7 I don't remember, but it's still rather funny. And he occasionally orders spermais when he's having lunch with us. =D *put a space between m and a*=D

As a Mr. 7, I must extend my hand like this and look like a 7..

He's tall. *no, seriously*

ZzZzzzzzZz..

He also went with us to Genting last year.

*gasps* 15/20 O.o

Fly paper, fly..

I good boy.. help clean rubbish. =D

Nevertheless, he's also one of the best-looking guys in class. At least in my opinion. LOL. Nuu I'm not ghey. =X

All stare at me.. =]

Do you notice something bout most the pics? He's always smiling.

And a lil titbit..

Scary la.. the Indian fella staring behind the pic =X *ngehehehehe*

That's it bout him. The last person, but definitely not least, will be Wee Jay. The pro-programmer. =D

.

Ex FITM-er : Carmen

2009-03-28T22:57:00.003+08:00

.

The final member of CCS, Carmen! Also known as my cousin there, since she shared the same surname as me. Well, the pronunciation at least. Since not many people shares the same surname as me. =)

Carmen with Vo San (potential candidate to be featured here XD)

By far the closest person I'm with among the three girls, Carmen's also the third girl I know who's named, well, Carmen. =X

Though rather shy in both appearance and attitude, she's one of the brains in the class. The other brain is Wee Jay, whom I'll be featuring soon.

U dunno? Come I teach~

Like us, she loves sweets too. Choki Choki~ =D

DIE WEE JAY!! *bang bang* *Carmen dies*

She's also one of the first few classmates of mine that I went with to a trip. Where to? Sabah! And we stayed at Crystal's house. =D Due to requests from Crystal, I won't include her pics.

Nice scenery! *snaps*

VO SAN IS GAY !! No not I write de =X

Sunburned badly T.T

I need shades! Because I'm a sunburned candle princess =D

Yummy~

Currently she and Kumaran are the only ones pursuing BIS degrees. Our classes don't clash much either, but at least we're still i nthe same college. =D

A rather dramatic pic, if not for the person who 'fainted' on the right side of the pic. =X

**********************************************************

ATTENTION Ex-FITMers and everybody else reading this, by now you should have noticed that the only people left to be featured is Sung Ho and Wee Jay. To spice things up a bit, I'm gonna let you guys decide who to be featured next. If you're reading this, kindly 'vote' by leaving a msg on the chatbox stating who you wanna see featured next. You may remain anonymous if you want. =) But please, don't spam.

Will Sung Ho be featured next? Or will it be Wee Jay? YOU decide. =D

.

Ex FITM-er : Sarah

2009-03-27T21:23:00.005+08:00

.

Due to some unavoidable reasons, I'm not going to post about Crystal, but instead I'm gonna jump over to the next person. Sarah Tan! =D

Sarah's among the only three girls available in class that would otherwise be occupied with glasses and side-combed hairs (and perhaps hormonally-challenged), nerdy guys. This sentence doesn't feel right. =X

Among the three girls in class, she's perhaps the most vocal among all. Usually the speaker of her group, she could, from time-to-time, zha people without mercy. She used to talk REALLY alot (with occasional accompanying squeals in the past), but now she's much quieter.

Sorry I don't have much pics of her here. =/

To make it up.. I make Yu Liang and Kumaran pay for u k?

XD

Next up, Carmen Hooh! She's kinda like my cousin there. =D

.

Ex FITM-er : Yu Liang

2009-03-26T23:35:00.004+08:00

.

In order for Sunway University College to earn more money, we must..

Liang oh Liang, now it's your turn. =D

ZZzZzzzzzZz..

Why would I say that he's the first to be surprised by Kumaran, you would ask? Well, he's the first person (at least in FITM) to be surprised when Kumaran talked to him in Mandarin. So yeah, that's pretty much all of it. =)

Eeh? O.o

Sho emo =X

Chew Yu Liang, who shares the same surname as my dearest mummy, happens to be one of the first friends I'm close with when I was in Semester 1 too. Needless to say, he's a real friendly guy, though he occasionally 'zha' people without caring whether he's a lecturer or a student. He's like a brother to me, with characteristics and experiences kinda like mine.

Pink! <3

He also stays nearby my house, so he was hitching a ride home from me almost everyday after class. Now that we're in degree already, our schedules are different. And thus, I mostly go back alone nowadays. T.T

The best sleeping pose ever =D I mean it.

You see, I was the prince that gave Snow White the kiss.. =]

Crystal, you're next! I'm ruffling a dangerous feather here. =X

.

Ex FITM-er : Kumaran

2009-03-23T23:17:00.005+08:00

.

Featuring the next Ex FITM-er, our class macha Kumaran. =D

At the very beginning, he surprised us all with his ability to speak Mandarin. Who would have thought that this rather burly Indian guy could speak in a language that even I, as a Chinese, am not fluent in? There sure are lots of Indians nowadays that could speak fluently in Mandarin.. and I'm so embarrassed. =X

Kumaran's a really friendly guy who talks to just almost anyone. Though we do have a little trouble understanding him sometimes (prolly cuz he always talks Mandarin with me =X), he's still a very good friend around. He could be annoying sometimes too, but hey, he's just trying to make someone else's day with his style. Love it or loathe it, it should be appreciated. =)

He loves to say "Chi sze la ni! (Go die la you)" just almost anywhere, anytime, anyplace.

He loves to pose with girls. ~~I think he's got 12 girlfriends to date too? I lost count. XD~~

He loves to pose with guys.

He occasionally loves to pose with me.

He tend to be real funny at times too.

Konon lah studying.

Last year, I went to stay with him in his home at Johor. I've had one week's worth of Indian foods there, and while I do like them a lot, it has been a little too much. =]

He's one of my closest friend around in the college, and it's unlikely that we're gonna lose contact anytime soon. I want more Indian foods!! Oh, and he's my partner in getting lots and lots of sweets to eat in class too. =D

Even his dog gets the treat. =D

The next person I'm gonna feature is the first guy he surprised in college.. Yu Liang. =)

*bout 3 pics are missing due to uploading error. Will upload the pics again soon*

Pic uploaded =D

Ex FITM-er : Yueh Han

2009-03-22T15:45:00.004+08:00

.

You didn't BEG me enough Han. Now you're gonna pay. >=] *muahahaha ebil me*

Kinda like Ju, I don't talk much with Yueh Han too when I was in Semester 1. He's closer to Ju at that time, and since I'm not close to Ju yet, so I'm not close to Han yet either. Now closer la of course. =D

He's a friendly person no doubt, though he's quite camera-shy. I do have troubles getting good pictures of him too, so don't blame me ya for the shortage of pics. It must be posted no matter what. =P

He's very recognisable with the dark blue sweater that he carries around always. I'm just posing here (though I phailed =X) with his sweater.

Sometimes he don't wear it..

Han appears to be very shy..

=^^=

But he looks best in group pics. =D

His pics proves my point. I'm a bit dissapointed cuz dun have much *ahem* weird pic of his. =]

You're just lucky, Han. I shall get you next time. Muahahahah~ >=D

Could you guess who's next?

..

Our macha Kumaran! Coming soon. =)

.

Ex FITM-er : Ju Keat

2009-03-19T22:34:00.006+08:00

.

Muahaha Ju.. it's your turn. =]

Hi, I'm Ju. =]

When people sit, I love to sleep. =]

I like to pose. =]

Oh, did I mentioned that I like to play these crazy swings too? Bring it on babeh! >=]

Cuz it's fun! Weee~ =]

Alright. To be honest, I don't really talk much to Ju when I was in Semester 1. Since, well, when we're new we don't really straight jump to talk with the whole class de ma. Okay maybe some other people do, but not me. I'm too shy for it. =P

*dun care u* =]

^^v

I think.. my stomach.. =[ Ugh..

As time progressed, I got to know him better and better. He's one of the few people I know in my semester that drives a car to college (the others being Edward and Sarah). He's also one of the few people in my semester that had attended the National Service training (the other person being Yu Liang).

U dun gimme money.. I gib u my emo smiley.. =]]

I suppose you can say he has the reputation of annoying people with his lame jokes and his infamous emo smiley that is =]

This is how you =] in real life!

Eh no lah, this =] better =]

Nevertheless, he's one of the big jokers in class. Pretty similar to Jeev, when they two combine, they too, could create the "ultra-super-magnificent-wonderful-monstrous bright beam of light that blasted through their target, incinerating every single bit of his body cells and in the process, they also destroyed the secret hideout located just behind the office. When the dust settled, they basked in glory under the sunlight, vowing to destroy the next villain that would dare to appear on the face of earth again" story. The only difference is, Ju drives the White Lamborghini. =]

Spot meh. =]

*gasps*

Now I shall brief you on how to do the perfect =] ...

Sweet, ain't they? BFFs =] Ju x Chee

I'm Baby Ju.. =]

So yeah. Due to some reasons, he might not be able to join our class in the following semesters. I really wished he could.. or the class definitely not be the same again. =X

Yueh Han, you're next. =D

.

Ex FITM-er : Jeevan

2009-03-18T23:43:00.005+08:00

.

As I promised, Jeevan, it's your turn! XD

Well, Jeevan's the first friend I'd made when I first started in FITM. I were frantically looking around for some people that I gotta meet in the office, but I happened to meet Jeev who's looking for the same person too. And then an idea struck us..

We decided to join forces, work together to track down our target, and when we found the person we've been loking for, we created a ultra-super-magnificent-wonderful-monstrous bright beam of light that blasted through our target, incinerating every single bit of his body cells and in the process, we also destroyed the secret hideout located just behind the office. When the dust settled, we basked in glory under the sunlight, vowing to destroy the next villain that would dare to appear on the face of earth again.

Now that I've met a new and powerful warrior of justice, I'm sure we have a lot to talk about. Without a moment to waste, he drifted a black sporty Lamborghini next to me, told me to hop on, then off we go to find the next bad guy.

XDDD Gosh I miss making up stories like this.

I've showed you the hand seals for Kage Bunshin no Jutsu, now for Harem no Jutsu..

Jeevan's also one of the first few friends that went with me to Sabah (the others being Vo San, Carmen, and Crystal). We had lots of fun there, at least to me. But I'm sure you guys enjoyed it too. =)

FITM IN KK

He can pose!

AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! *screams at the sea* =]

Our FITM Pyramid! Though it was originally a KL Tower or something like that..

Two lonely guys got dumped by shopaholic girlfriends..

Oh, we played DotA in Sabah too. =D

Depending on the situation, Jeev could be a soft-spoken person or someone who could rapid-fire you to the point you can't fight back. He's friendly when passive, but highly aggressive when provoked! Alright I'm just exaggerating things again, but you get my deal. =)

You see, people playing paper aeroplane but Jeev sat quietly studying for exams. See, see!!

Now he's passive..

..and now he's aggressive! Rapid-fire shooting tratatatatatatatata! Always the guy leading the fight. XD

Not a bad ending huh? Got some pose before running to Apiit (or wherever you will be going) =) Look he's *ahemsqueezed* by two girls!

Jeev you rox lol ^^v

And who's next...... Random draft!

Ex FITM-er : Edward

2009-03-17T23:51:00.005+08:00

.

Ya know, my Foundation in Information Technology and Multimedia (FITM) had ended and I don't realise it much. Still, it had ended, and I'm not longer in FITM. Will be starting degree soon, and while it's more or less the same as FITM, some things are bound to be a little different. Few people may be leaving Sunway for other colleges or universities, and their absence will definitely affect the class in some way.

Enough flowery talks, lets just look back at the pics. XD

Introducing first, Edward!

He's one of the most quiet guy in my class, but also one of the most friendly guy around. Easily recognisable with his combed-down hair and China-like face (courtesy of Mr. Rajesh XD), Edward is simply the guy easily accepted by many as a good friend.

He often stays out of the spotlight, quietly observing the life going on around him.

But make no mistake, he's not just idling, he thinks a lot!

Look at his super skill : Using the lab computer + his Lenovo Lappy!

Sometimes he just love to snap people's pic.. or maybe Kumaran's just forcing him to take a pic. =P

But he's still the simple Edward's we'll all remember. Hope to see you sometime soon, if you've really decided to transfer to Apiit with Jeev. Have fun there buddy ;)

...

What am I doing in that picture? =="

Time for a random draw... and the next person to be featured for the next post is... JENG JENG

Jeevan. Til the next post =]

~EDIT~

Ju just informed me he's not going to Apiit but to Lim Kok Wing.. >.> sorry for the error! Pai seh lah.

School's Past Memories (SPM) Day

2009-03-13T01:09:00.002+08:00

.

I actually thought of another abbreviation for SPM. O.o

Yup I'm one day late.. The result's was released yesterday, and while I'm planning to go to my old school just for fun, I decided not to. Personal reasons. Not important anyway. =)

To all those who's got good results, congratulations! To those who're disappointed with it, be thankful because it's finally over. Your SPM result slip is not everything, though I do understand it could be used as a tool to brag about your achievements. I'm not denying the fact that it does show something. XD

Anyway, this day does mean something more than just receiving your results after that 11-years(or 10 to some) study. Depending on how people look at it, this may be a happy or sad day with various reasons.

School days ended on the very day your final SPM paper finished, yes, but the results day may be the very last day you'll meet your schoolmates and teachers, at least together in the school. God knows when someone's gonna plan a reunion party or how many more years it would take before an alumni is finally established.

Being in college already, the "College life is different from school life" cliche kicks in. Not too sure why, but I'm the only one, if not among the few others, who actually missed it. Heck, I really enjoyed my school life. It is the bitter coffee with extra servings of sugar for me.

Even til today.. I still miss school. Haha. =)

'Maintenance' done!

2009-03-10T18:54:00.005+08:00

.

If you're reading this post now, chances are that you would've noticed the major changes in my blog. Unless of course, you're visually-impaired and can't read and just happened to click all the way here.

But I'm sure you do notice la rite? XD

Anyway, my once blue blog is now orange!! Why orange, you may ask? I chose it because I felt like having a brighter colour for my blog this time rather than keeping it dark(dark is cool, but it's overused for quite some time already). The other (possible) reasons are..

- CNY passed by around a month ago. There are lots of mandarin orange around.
- My college's theme is orange.
- There is a restaurant named 'Orange' just outside my college.
- I made Rachael hungry. =P
- I think I'm wearing an orange underwear. *checks*
- Please ignore the above line.

Anyway, one of the proudest things I've done during the 'maintenance' is my new header. It is heavily photoshopped, and I've spent bout 3 days doing it. Prolly cuz the comp crashed twice while I'm making it. ==

Since I'm still quite noobish when it comes to photoshop, there are still many things on the header which I can't get right on. I do notice it is being overcrowded with the flashy light effects too, but I just can't help it. Learned it already and I'm addicted. XD

Tested the new light effects on this image at first.

Oh, and I've got a new desktop look too!

Changes are everywhere! Me like. =P

Credits to FinalSense for the blog layout!

'Closed for temporary maintenance'

2009-03-04T22:37:00.003+08:00

.

Yosh! I've just finished my finals yesterday, so that means I'm free! For the next three weeks, at least. =) And without me realising it, my Foundation year has ended. It still felt like yesterday that I've met my coursemates. It's so fast! And then.. in less than three weeks' time, I gotta choose which degree I'm going to already. =)

Anyways, I might not be posting anything for a while now. Should be taking my time to choose and apply a new layout for this blog, as well as creating a new header for it. The current header no longer tells my situation now, as it's already a thing of the past. =)

So.. I shall declare my blog 'closed for temporary maintenance'! XD

Awesome download speed

2009-03-04T22:28:00.005+08:00

.

Usually when I download things, the speed could vary anywhere from 0 bytes to 100+ kilobytes. While sometimes it could stay stable at around 50kbps, most of the time it drops down to few kilobytes, which is really frustrating. ==

Just few days ago, my download manager had just recorded a super-high download speed! Well, super-high in my case at least. And nope, it's not photoshopped. =)

The number flashed in less than a second, so I'm quite lucky to be able to take a screenshot of this. Too bad I can only get the speed when downloading tutorial notes from my college website. =P

Oh ya, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YU LIANG!! And Ju Keat's hving his tomorrow too. So HAPPY BIRTHDAY! =D

.

First two months together, success! ^^

2009-02-28T21:07:00.004+08:00

.

Last Wednesday marked the first two months that me and Eilyn are together.. Two months is really too short to say that this is workable, but what am I feeling so far?

Sweet! But it'll definitely be much sweeter if she stays somewhere nearer to me.. I'm growing envy of other couples who could walk around in shopping malls holding hands and sleeping on each other's shoulders and I can't! T.T

Oh come on I'm a guy with perfectly masculine hormones too.

But.. All is not lost. At least she's quite a strong girl herself despite her young age, being able to withstand this big distance gap between us. She's unique, no doubt. Nevertheless, it would be so much better if I could go out with her once in a while. Maybe once a week, maybe once a month, perhaps even 3 months once.. Better than a year, right? =)

Just wanna let u know.. We won't know what will happen in the future, but til then, I want you to know that I wanna be with you as long as we can. Will cherish every moment I'll get to call you my darlyn. =)

This is a good way to end the month of love isn't it? =P

Leo's characteristics

2009-02-27T21:03:00.003+08:00

.

Found this in one nof the chain mails my friend sent me. I normally don't pay much attention to it but something there caught my eye.

LEO (The Lion)

Great talker. Attractive and passionate. Laid back. Knows how to have fun. Is really good at almost anything. Great kisser. Unpredictable. Outgoing. Down to earth. Addictive. Attractive. Loud. Loves being in long relationships. Talkative. Not one to mess with. Rare to find. Good when found.

Notice the bolded red word.

I'm a Leo. Good or bad?

...

*I shall upload some pics of us wearing formal shirts again when photobucket n blogger could coexist properly =P*

2009-02-22T21:30:00.005+08:00

.

Drawing posts one after another. =D

Was just curious on how Eilyn could draw.. so I asked her to draw some for me. Beware! The following drawings are drawn using a mouse and may cause your eye to bleed. XDD

Cute rite?

And while waiting, she drew this too. Nice rite?? I wonder how well could she draw with her hands. Can't wait. X3

*I've got a test tomorrow and I'm still blogging and chatting LOL*

Oh goodness it's a week since Valentine's already! Got give your loved ones extra love onot? Ask yourself. Dunnid tell me. =P

Neways, few weeks back during the Chinese New Year, Yuan Yi and Yuan Ji (my two adorable twin cousin sisters) actually drew something from home and then gave it to me when they came to my house.. It's not a super nice drawing la, but it's still nice!

The two little girls on the bottom rite : Who is who I can't tell now =P

Sweet, no? ^.^

.

Will you be my Va-lyn-tine?

2009-02-14T22:35:00.004+08:00

.

Alright, I'm sorta making a confession right now. To those who are still in doubt, Eilyn is my girlfriend. I'm pretty sure you all must have noticed her name somewhere in this blog right? So yea, she is. My first ever. No more questions. ;)

I'm not gonna say anything more la.. but if you ask me nicely enough I might tell. Heck, that is if ya really wanna know. I'm not gonna 'ke po chi' telling the whole world I've got a girlfriend. And just because I'm making a confession here, it doesn't mean I'm showing off. I used to be a less-fortunate, now I'm a more-fortunate. That's all. =)

And speaking of which, it's Valentine's Day today! Have you showered your loved ones with extra special treatments today? Don't forget ur friends also you know. And don't forget to continue loving them on any other days. ^^

You may give your girlfriend/boyfriend bouquets of roses, mountains of chocolates, or even bow-tied teddy bears. Whatever it is, dun forget to give them a kiss on the cheek(lips you can save it for later la XD), hold their hands and look into their eyes, then say "I love you".

Make sure you say it from your heart!

Will you be my Va-lyn-tine, Eilyn? ^.^

High School Nostalgia

2009-02-10T02:42:00.011+08:00

.

It's exactly 2.42am now and I'm still awake. Why?

Since the download on High School Musical 3 has finally finished bout 1am just now, I decided to sacrifice my next 2 hours of sleep just to watch it. Yeah it's a dumb choice, health-wise, to make. But I really really really wanna watch it laa! So I did. And it just ended. And. I'm. Satisfied. =D

I'm feeling sleepy already though.

Good thing the ending part's not like the 1 Litre of Tears, not enough to make me emo and shed tears. Yet, it's enough to make me nostalgic all over again(speaking of which, I'm getting very nostalgic nowadays XD). How I wish my high school was as sweet as in the movie. Well, I didn't say I'm not thankful did I?

I miss high school life. =)

Eilyn's so gonna get angry at me knowing that I stayed up late...again XD

.

Hopeful

2009-02-08T22:52:00.004+08:00

.

Earlier I was chatting with Eilyn, and she has been telling me bout the many problems she's been facing daily. More recently, she's been bullied by some people in a way lar. How I'm not sure, since she dun felt like thinking bout it anymore. So nvm lor.

Besides, that's not my point.

Back then she was telling me how much she looks forward to seeing me online and chatting with me whenever she could. It's a relationship cliche, which I could only understand after being in one. And by relationship here I not neccessarily meant boyfriends and girlfriends only, but to everyone as well. As in, whoever you look forward to seeing as a matter of fact.

Few years back, I do have a number of people whom I really look forward to when I'm online. They consist mainly of my petsisters, and I'm not ashamed to say it. Cuz I really am hopeful to meet them online. Just imagine.. you've had a very bad day and then the person you're looking forward to appears, and your days brightens up instantly. Perhaps not instantly la, but sooner or later it will. Most of the time, at least. =P

And then these group of people slowly, one-by-one, faded out of my reach. My life online has almost been pointless. From time to time I may ponder, "What do I do now?" I may sometime avoid conversations, and it turned into 'most of the time'. Eventually, chatting has almost been something of my past. I no longer have anyone that I'm looking forward to chat for. Empty.

Then as I know this little girl(yes, little =P), my day started being brighter than it was before that. And with each growing day, I, again, look forward more to see her online. When she told me that she really looks forward to me, I felt just so, well, how to say the "awww.." feelings ah? XD

It's so nostalgic.. A feeling that I've once lost, and now's it's gradually coming back.

But how long can it last, too?

I will savour it. Thank God for even giving me the chance and time to be with her. Praise God! =)

Tis' the month of love

2009-02-05T14:49:00.004+08:00

Heyya! I sure have got lazy again by leaving my blog post-less for more than a week d. Anyway I do have a few pics to show you guys of what I did while I was gone, but that had to wait until I get the camera back. I have no idea where it is now.

Anyway do you know? Chinese New Year began last week!! If you don't know I feel sad for you lah. *intended for locals* Got many ang paos? ;)

Anyway, here's a lil pic for now.

This is the perfect drink when your guests respond "Anything" when you ask them what they wanna drink.

I just realised that the post title had nothing to do with this post ==

.

Fifi just became an aunty!

2009-01-29T16:03:00.002+08:00

I lazy to type la. Let the pics put "aww"s on your faces k? =)

Cute, ain't they? <3

.

The festival begins!

2009-01-27T01:10:00.004+08:00

.

Hola! I just came back from 'bai nian'-ing in my relative's house. Got myself quite a few angpaus, whether its a lot or little, I don't know, but I'm just happy I got them. I just enjoy most playing with my 2 cute lil cousins sisters. I will uploads the pics later, though there ain't many bout them. =P

However, I do have some more. Behold Fifi's brother's puppies!

More puppy pics coming soon. <333

Shades of Red

2009-01-24T23:20:00.004+08:00

.

In exactly 24 hours and 40 minutes from now, Chinese people from all around the world will celebrate the coming of the new Ox Year! I'm still not too familiar as to which zodiac it will be in years to come, except the Horse Year for year 2014,2026, 2038(the list goes on~) since I'm born in the Horse Year. Okay Horse Year and Ox Year is soon becoming a cliche so I'll stop using the words.

The colour red is often used by the Chinese especially during the new year due to its significance and an auspicious colour believed to bring in good luck and ward off evil. *ward off evil I dunno got or not la but I know it's for lucky reasons =P*

Actually I'm not here to write about the zodiac and colour. I just wanna talk about a coincidence. While I was having dinner earlier with my family somewhere in a random restaurant at Puchong there, we coincidentally ordered drinks with the shades of red.

(from left) Pink guava, Air bandung, Watermelon juice, Coke

The foods there were above average la, not too bad. But the thing there that I looked forward most to is Fried Mozarella Cheese. =P

*darn I forgot to take pic of it*

Holding hands ain't for just young couples

2009-01-23T21:56:00.006+08:00

.

Just take a walk down any shopping streets or malls and you're sure to come across many(and I mean MANY, close to MUCH =P) young couples ranging from kiddy 12-years-olds to young adults in their 20s, holdings hands as they waltzed around from boutiques to cinemas, from arcades to cafes. Unlike the olden days, couples now aren't shy to show to the world that they're in a relationship(or commiting a scandal, lol), walking about with their fingers interclasped as they whispered things into each other's ears, giggling as they do.

Some people may view them as puppy lovebirds and some may feel jealous because they don't have a bf/gf to hold hands with. Either way, it is just one of the many methods used to show their partners that they're adored and wants to be adored. Holding hands won't necessarily mean "I love you" because the word love is always overused and misunderstood. I could go on and on to express my opinion on the difference between like and love, but it's completely unneccessary in this post. So I'll pass. =)

Note that I'm emphasising holding hands here?

Earlier tonight when I was going to have dinner with my parents outside, they held hands as they walked across the street, crossed drains and passed through rows of shops. I couldn't resist the urge to snap a picture of it(I never could), so I did. Not a picture perfect on quality, but I got what I wanted. =D

This somewhat sweet moment hit a bump in the road later when we were having dinner and..

"****!! I didn't bring my wallet along!" -Dad

.

So fast first week over liao..

2009-01-15T23:10:00.003+08:00

.

Yup.. So fast the first week over d. It's a bit disappointing that there are not many new girls in my class this semester. Eilyn dun jealous ya? XDD

So far can't really say good.. but it's not bad either. The good news is, this semester we're only learning HTML and Accountings and we only have three days of classes per week. The bad news is, the classes are darn boring! Especially the Accountings class. I wish the lecturer can spice up her teachings a bit. Seriously its not good for my eyes to stare at the lecturer 3-4 hours straight. >.>

I'm bored. And I better get started on my assignment already. =x

Johor Johor~

2009-01-09T21:34:00.003+08:00

.

Actually my classmates have planned to go Johor in the midst of our second semester break. We were initially planning to stay in Vo San's house but since he'll be having guests, most of us thought that the trip is cancelled. I didn't realise that until I found out that most of them are busy will be going out somewhere reunion dinner in China etc etc..

Vo San's house can't stay got Kumaran's house ma. He offered. All don't go so I gotta go alone. =P

Kumaran's doggie Subu.

Macha's ice cream, lol

We went to a nearby beach called Danga Bay. Few pics are missing due to Blogger(or the Internet) error.

We wanted to rent a bicycle to travel around, but darn expensive lar.

Like bf and gf~ haha!

Vicki's(Kumaran's friend) dog. He behaves like a cat, seriously.

Singapore's trademark of cleanliness? =)

*grins*

...

These scary spiders are basically everywhere in the zoo!

o.o scary...

Some performances.. The animal's are really properly trained and smart.

One of the many meal's I've had there.. Seriously, I'm getting fat!

His dad play NFS one you know. Dun play play =P

Actually I still have a lot more pics to show, but it's really troublesome uploading them into Blogger. See la if one day it's more stable I'll upload more.

Eilyn p/s - The monkey I saw in the zoo reminds me of you. XD

New year, new wallpaper

Whaddya think? ^^

Yeap yeap, I will do a new header soon too.. Before anyone asks. =P

.

Aiya, 2 days late lah

2009-01-03T21:57:00.004+08:00

.

Don't care lah. Happy New Year everyone! I don't wanna talk cliches like leave the past in 2008 or welcome a happy 2009 or something like that, cuz people use them too much d la.. Some people say 2009 will be good year with businesses blooming, many people will get new cars new homes, they walk on stairs won't fall down all that, then there are also some people who say 2009 will be a bad year with businesses bankrupting, many people will lose cars lose homes, walk on stairs sure fall one.

Sorry la I don't really care these predictions. =)

All I care about is that this will be another new chapter in my life, as it does with other people. A new period, a new milestone, with similar goals still pulling me forward towards them. The stressed moments, the desserts I could enjoy afterwards, it's all too familiar already.

2008, however, ended somewhat differently from the others. If you're a keen follower of my blog, you should have noticed that I've mentioned about finding the light in my life somewhere in my past posts. I found the lights and they danced around me. Just as I'm going to have them in my grasp, they flew away from me and faded into the abyss. Dissapointment followed suit, but as I said, the feeling's all too familiar already.

But 2008 ended with me finally being able to embrace a light. It's not gonna be easy holding this one, but I'm holding on to it anyway. She has passed the trial periods, and she's holding on to me too. Like you said, I hope my relationship between me and her will b more sweet , more lovable and more good too~ keke~ ^^

p/s - Eilyn you baka. =P

Merry Christmas!

God bless ya all! ^^

2 quotes

2008-12-15T16:43:00.003+08:00

.

Right now, the best quote that I could use and tell you about our situation is,

"Just because someone doesn't love you the way you wanted it to be, it doesn't mean that they haven't loved you with all they have."

And if I could add..

"Immature you are, but that's why I'm here." =)

I know you're reading this.. And whenever you feel so bad this could end anytime(though it hasn't officially started yet), read this again, and think back of what we've went through and waited for all these times. A month plus isn't a lot, but it's better than nothing.

And I wanna let you know, I'm proud of you for being able to make it this far. =)

Just a few days more, wait la k? ^^
