35th IDC @ Wat Chetawan

2011-12-23T16:28:00.003+08:00

I'M HOME, DUDES AND CHICKAS!! Whooooooo....!

Yes, I know I know. All the kittens also turned into cats and tigers already, yet my blog is still left untouched. Hehe. Honestly, I thought I'd have more time once my finals was over.. HAR HAR. What a joke. I still need more than 24 hours a day to do everything! Time, YOU HAVE GOT TO SLOW DOWN! Why are you always rushing?! ._.

Well anyway, since most of you know that I just came back from a Buddhist camp with the amount of spamming in Facebook, I bet you are dying to know what is it about, eh? Okay la, maybe not dying, but at least.. curious? :P

If you have never heard of it before, it's known as Incovar Dhamma Camp. This was, in fact, their 35th camp already but only my second time attending. It's organized twice annually, usually in the middle and the end of the year. It's a 4-days-3-nights camp which bring students from various universities and colleges to learn the Dhamma in a fun and experiential way. Don't worry, I'm not going all factual on you, but that is pretty much the objective of the camp.

Now, it's all going to come from my personal experience of 35th IDC. :)

My First Impression
I'm not gonna lie. I was shocked by the total number of participants this time because I could literally count them all with my fingers. I mean, I was already expecting it to be lesser than the previous camps, but I didn't know it was going to be so few of us! I was beginning to feel a little nervous at that time because I didn't know most of them except for our 34th IDC camp warden, John and some of the committee.

But once the ice was broken, we became more comfortable around each other and the camp just kick start from there onwards. We were the one and only group there because of the small number, so we practically know everyone in the camp. It was then that I realised all the committee were there with us (and I actually know all of them!), in contrary to the previous camps where I can't even catch a glimpse of them because they were always rushing to prepare for the next activity.

Talks & speakers
The next thing we see was our time schedule. And then, we got another shock because we realised that the 'Activity' means Dhamma talk, 'Workshop' means Dhamma talk, and obviously 'Talk' means more Dhamma talk. HAHAHAHA!! But for once, we have sooooo many "Free and Easy" in between. This was another mini shock because... since when does Incovar gives you time to rest and shower?! If you have been to any of the Incovar camps, you'll know what I mean. :P

That aside.. we do have many, many great speakers this time around. Since we have more breaks in between, we were more attentive during talks. And, it was more interactive between the speakers and participants.. which is a very plus point to me because we can just ask any questions which we have doubts in, etc etc.

Although it may seem frightening to have so many talks at first, trust me.. it didn't feel that way. I actually enjoyed myself, listening to the Dhamma and personal experiences, and even ghost stories from the speakers. :D

Camp activities
Yes, Dhamma talks may be the main core of this camp, but we do have other activities as well. I had SO MUCH FUN playing the Guardian Angel game. The rule is simple: each of us just randomly picked a person's name and be their guardian angel throughout the entire duration of the camp. The only twist is that you're not supposed to reveal your identity. You can leave messages/hints/clues for your "guarded" angel to guess who you are. Our true identities will only be revealed on the last day of camp.

I simply love this game! It is very intriguing, trying to guess who your guardian angel is, and at the same time, leaving tips here and there for your own "guarded" angel to guess who you are.

We also had a lot of hymns singing. We even had our own "Backstreetboys" and opera singer. There were so many random and funny "performances" that I think I laughed until my jaw dropped! It was really fun because we just sorta relax and goof around. And we even discovered we have a few talents among ourselves too. ;)

Next: sharing. We definitely had a lot of sharing sessions in this camp (and so does the previous camps). I guess it plays an important part during the camp because it is where everyone shared their problems, opinions, suggestions and practically anything that you wished to share. I personally like the idea of sharing a lot. Just by having somebody listening to you and feeling a hand of comfort on your back; though not solving the problem, it makes you feel soooooo much better because you now realised that you're not alone in this world. :)

And there was Movie Night as well. Yes, movie together with popcorn and snacks and pillows. Hehe, I was so comfortable that I just fall asleep! We watched Pay It Forward starring Haley Joel Osment, more known as that kid from Sixth Sense. This movie was actually very meaningful, but I conked out for about 3/4 of the movie. Thank god for another sharing session after that, so at least I know the story now! Hahaha..

Meals
We had vegetarian food that actually tasted good (this comes from a person who don't eat leafy vegetables) Haha. For the first 2 days, the food were delivered pretty late and we were all starving by the time the food arrived. But we later found out that one of the committee, ChunNang had to sacrifice his time from work and suffer the KL traffic just to deliver our food! Big Sadhu to him.. our food was never late after that. :)

As usual, we also had the hand-tyings during meals, but no blindfolds this time. Fun Fun Fun! Unlike previous camps, we don't really have to be noble silent during meals because it was only so few of us. We are allowed to bond during meals and we do our own dishes! :D

IXP
Also known as Incovar Experience. It is considered to be the highlight of every Incovar camp. It is always different and we're not supposed to disclose about it to anyone after the camp was over. Everything we shared remained within that four walls, so come for the next camp to experience it for yourself!

Participants & Committee
I have met so many awesome people in this camp!! I pretty much know everyone from head to toe, irregardless participant or committee. Though it was only 4 days, all of us just clicked! We had so much fun together! Every night, we will have our own chitchat sessions till 1-2am, even when we were supposed to wake up early the next day!

We do exercises together in the morning, cleaned up the temple together, played games together and did almost everything together as a group! And because we know each other so well, it is especially hard for me when I realised it was all over. 4 days just flew past so quickly! :(

Comments
All in all, it was very different from the previous camps. It is much more slow-paced and relaxing this time compared to the previous camp that I've participated in. And although we may be a small group, I now know quantity doesn't matter at all because at the end of the day.. we learn, we had fun and we made new friends. And with that, I think Incovar had already achieved their objectives.

I'm glad I came for this camp and I will definitely go for the next one, if time permits. :)

Whooooooo... One year down, 2 more years to go!

It's time to become a tiger! :P

My nerves ate my brain

2011-10-13T23:54:00.000+08:00

It's ironic to say that I don't have the time to blog, and yet the next minute.. I'm posting another one on the same day! Haha, but do cut me some slack. I'm having a pretty bad day. Okay, maybe not bad bad.. but just feeling down as I failed my own expectations.

So, I decided to pour out my disappointment now and start anew tomorrow! :D

Today was actually my first time speaking in Toastmasters. LOL It was not my first CC project speech yet; just a 2-3 min invocation speech to sorta introduce the theme of the meeting. Sounds simple, right? So, I took up that role just to warm myself up before my first speech.

And I guess I made an absolute right decision.

Because I totally blanked out. Yes, for a freaking two-and-a-half min speech!

My nerves took over entirely and my brain just refused to work at that crucial time! I mean, I remembered everything I wanted to say. I practiced beforehand and I was pretty well prepared when I went for the meeting. Obviously.. until the moment I stepped in front. I just went COMPLETELY BLANK.

Maybe because I was also the first speaker of the meeting. So, I was soooo nervous that all I could think about is how nervous I was, instead of what I was supposed to say. *gulp* Luckily, I did okay for the first half of my speech, while the second half... Well, I think the pauses were so long that the audience were sleeping already! LOL.

I know this is only my first speech and all, but I feel that I could have done much, much better than how I've performed today. No worries, I won't give up! After this, I'll let it go and move on.

I will do better next time. I am determined to overcome this stage fright no matter what!
BRING IT ON!

I Need...

2011-10-13T16:11:00.000+08:00

Time. No joke!

Trust me, I do want to blog.. but there is simply no time for now. So MANY activities!! And omg, mock exam's next week. Yes, you must be thinking, "Wha...? Exam again?!" Unfortunately, yes. Welcome to ACCA. Hah!

Now I totally know what it means by, SO MUCH TO DO, SO LITTLE TIME.

Gosh. Time, please go slower!! x_x

Grab some pretty clothes which you can't afford, try it on, camwhore, then put it back.

At least you have a sense of satisfaction by wearing it once!

.... in the fitting room. Hah.
This is what kiamsiap people like us does! :P

Hostel line sucks. Period.

It takes forever and a day to load anything. And, our entire condo is actually having some kind of serious renovation going on for quite some time now. Drilling, knocking.. you name it. But they didn't change one thing I'm pretty sure every student would want: Unifi.

Yes, or at least a faster WiFi for the building please! We don't even have a goddamn WiFi and they charged us sooooo much every month. Gosh, they think my parents print money ah?!

*takes a deep breath*

Okay, control.. So. It's been a while since my last post. What have you been up to? :) I just came back from a Genting trip during the weekend. It's not the best trip ever but yeah, I had my fair share of screaming like a mad person for those crazy rides. xD But! I'm gonna have to leave the details for another time. Heh.

All I know is I totally KO-ed right after that trip. I had no choice, but to guai guai go see the doc, get some medication and go to sleep. LOL. But don't worry, I've been feeling so much better now.

More events coming up soon. I need to be strong and healthy again! Haha pray for me! :P

She's brave and strong and sees everything through.

She's also my mum - my pillar of strength. ♥

And sometimes, I think she has more hairstyles than I ever have. ;)

Thoughts: Weakling

2011-09-26T23:34:00.000+08:00

Ah, damn.

Just when I thought I could enjoy just a bit longer, I fell sick. Yes yes, I'm probably one of the weakest person ever. I could eat all the healthy food, exercise and drink loads of water, it doesn't matter. I still fall sick easily. Meh.

It's getting annoying.. I hate being weak but I can't deny the fact that I am. And I meant that physically, mentally and spiritually. LOL.

I guess I'm somewhat wayyyyyyy better than I used to be, but still.

I'm known to be a scaredy-cat, which is very true. I'm a coward in appearance and at heart. I don't usually wanna leave my comfort zone. I don't want to try new things. I'm afraid of this, I'm afraid of that. And to make things worse, I love complaining. Hah omg, the ultimate auntie is formed!

Sometimes, it's exhausting for me to even face myself.

But I'm trying to change all that now. I really want to be a better person. I want to be courageous enough to face the world. The reality. To face new adventures with new people.

I want to be the kind of person who can stand up for herself. Be strong and wise. It might take me forever to get there, but I believe I'll reach there someday.

Till then, it's time to gargle some salt water. Hee.

Post-PT2 a.k.a. SVS Day

2011-09-24T16:57:00.002+08:00

Phew~ Everything is over for now. :)

1. Full stress on Progress Test 2 - check!
2. Johnny English & Nasi Lemak 2.0 - check!
3. Snowflakes @ half price - check!
4. Had the BIGGEST pool party ever - check!

I was so worn out I had no time to rest, much less blog. But here I am, back from the reality to the blogging world, like I've promised. :)

Well, Progress Test 2 is finalllllly over. And let's just say.. I did well and I flunked well, depending on which paper and which question you're talking about. LOL. I'll just leave whatever I've done in the past since I can't change it anyway. So, MOVIES and PARTY! Bring it on~!!

Okok, don't give me that face. I know what I said about parties.

But come on, I do deserve a break. :)

Besides, it's our dai ka ceh Serene Chan's 19th birthday. How could we not have a party to celebrate her big day as well as our part-time freedom from PT2?! That's just.... impossible! :P

It was really, by far, the biggest pool party ever with almost 40 people attending!

Special credits to Pei Ying and the guys for making this event an awesome one. They worked so hard in preparing (literally) everything from head to toe. And also, to the people who have to suffer the heat in the "sauna" to BBQ food for us.

We really had a full day of excitement: act-as-if-nothing-happened, SURPRISE!!!, eat eat eat, blast the music, talk about Nasi Lemak 2.0, set up the BBQ pit, got pissed by the management, gossip, burn some chicken wings, rain and umbrellas, got thrown with pool water, got thrown INTO the pool.. LOL!

It was definitely a night to remember. :)

Hi there! My "long awaited" Progress Test 2 is finally here.... in about 3 days' time.

So, the blog will be down until this haunting test is over. In the mean time, please do transmit any kind of positive thoughts to my brain and hopefully I won't freak out too badly when the test comes. Hehe.

I guess there's nothing much I can do about how unprepared I am now, but to just do the best I can. :)

So, good luck to everyone that is sitting for any sort of exams/tests at the moment or soon. Pray hard that our lecturers will have mercy and not kill us on the spot with their deathly brutal questions.

See ya soon. And oh, happy belated mid-autumn festival.

... and happy Malaysia Day? ;)

August babies

2011-09-13T15:22:00.000+08:00

August was definitely a month for celebration of birthdays! No joke! I found myself singing birthday song and eating birthday cakes more than I ever did in any other months. LOL.

Not that I'm tired of it, of course, but I think I've been singing the birthday song so many times I could sing it in my sleep. Heh. Is it just me or there are simply more August babies around us?

And just so you know, the cake above is the result of our post-smashing-face-on-the-cake ritual. Yes, yes.. It's practically ruined because more than one person's face have been rubbed on it. :P

Let's see just how many birthday celebrations in that one month itself...

August 6th; Sharon

I still remember it was the weekend just before our Progress Test 1 when everyone was suddenly asked, without prior notice, to meet up at our condo's bus stop at 11.30p.m. to surprise Sharon at her house.

Despite our test was coming, we just threw our books away and headed over anyway to be the first ones to celebrate her birthday on the dot. But we later found out that it wasn't even a surprise because she knew we were coming. Ceh.

August 19th; Vincent

Ha! This fella! My fellow hometownmate! ;)

Our class ended pretty late that day and after much delay, we were all starving to death by dinner time. So we decided to choose the fastest yet the nearest place to eat: McD (haha, yes, we are cheap that way :P).

And the guys, being guys, even went to dapao some KFCs over to McD. LOL. And here we are, trying so hard to hide the cake from the birthday boy, but he found out anyway. Sneaky guy he is!

After he blew the candles, we then passed the little cake around for everyone to share. We bought him loads of shirts and obviously, he looks good in it. We have great taste, ya know.. Hee.

For the record, this is like one of the rare pictures where I can finally see his face without his blardy hand covering his head/hair/camera! *satisfied :)

August 22nd; Soon Keong

Just a few days after Vincent's birthday, it's time for another celebration. Hah! And this time, the mission was accomplished SUCCESSFULLY. Thank gods. Because I'm beginning to think if we suck at giving surprises or what.

A total of 4 cars travelled down to Klang in the middle of the night, armed with a huge birthday cake with a can of whipped cream. He had no clue at all that we were going to surprise him on the eve because we told him we will celebrate it on the day itself.

HAHAHA. I think he had the best facial with whipped cream that night.

August 25th; Miss Voonsia

Hahaha, did I also mention before that I happened to have loads of cute lecturers? Heh.

Like Miss Grace, she is also very nutty and bubbly most of the time! Seriously, what is with lecturers nowadays acting more and more kiddy?! Hehe, just kidding!

We had a great lunch that day, with sooooo many of us. (Miss Voonsia should be so proud to have us as her students. :P) Our voices practically filled up the entire Kim Gary.

Come to think of it, I don't even know her age now. She hates it when anyone dares to even go near the subject. Hehehe. So, miss, how old are you?? *smiles cheekily and runs away* :P

And guess what, the party goes on when I go back to Penang. Distance didn't even make the slightest difference at all. Haha.. Whooo, party party all the way~~ !!

August 21st, Yvonne

I've known this girl all my life and she's practically family already!! Hehe, and I meant it both literally and figuratively. Heh. So, I feel bad for not being able to celebrate it with her. But I also know she have somebody else that could it for me now. Hehehehehehehe...

August 31st; Chery Berry

MERDEKA BABY!! Hahaha, it's always a good thing to have a birthday on a public holiday. Because it also means that all of us are going back home at the same time! :D

And this year, we get to stay overnight at G Hotel!! OMG IT WAS DOWNRIGHT AWESOME! I don't even have to mention how many pictures we took that night. And meeting them after so long makes it even more special. Gonna treasure every moment of it. Wheee~

I hope Chery is using our bottle now. ;)

On the side note, I seriously think August babies are OVERLOADED these days. Hehee. Too much too much!! Maybe parents-to-be should start increasing the population of December babies instead?
Just a suggestion. :D

Hi! I think it's time for some happy posts now!

Or else, you guys would think that I'm suffering from depression already, judging from my recent "emo" posts. ;) Heh. Don't worry, I will be back in no time when my Progress Test 2 is over!

Not that I'd party hard like I did last month, but yeah, I wouldn't want to become a full-time nerd and miss out on everything either. Like what my friend Yong Wei said, "Middle path is the key. Study hard and play smart. Because college life is only once in a lifetime." Very true, indeed! :)

__________________

So, on a happier note, I shall now reminisce on our road trip to another state. It's N9, this time. Heh. Come to think of it, we have travelled to a lot of places together for the past one year. It's hell lot of fun!

Actually, I've been wanting to post about our trip to Port Dickson for quite some time, but I never really have the time to do it during weekdays. And now that today is finally a Saturday, here it is!! :D

That day, all 15 of us went there directly after our morning class. Obviously, we were all quite excited during the lesson and right after class, we were immediately packed into 2 cars and ready to go!

We almost didn't make it because it was raining in the morning, but I'm really glad we did. And guess what, it was sunny and the sky was clear when we arrived at PD. We didn't really know the place there, so we just randomly chose an empty beach. LOL.

Wasting no time, all the guys started playing frisbee and the girls headed to the toilets first. Ha.

The sand was really soft and white.... until I found out it was man-made. =.= And there were a lot of crabs. Like little little ones. That also got stuck on my foot. Quite painful actually.

The water there was pretty dirty and it's actually kind of opaque. Hah, because you can't really see your feet once it's immersed into the water. So, all of us girls, just sorta "rendam kaki" in a very cautious way so as to not make our pants wet.

All we did was to walk to the maximum we can go in the water and walk back up to the beach. It was kinda pathetic and boring. So, we do what girls like to do. Talk somemore and take photos.

Oh, and did I mention I loved how prettily the photos turned out? :)

Well of course, our efforts to keep ourselves dry were just... plain useless. Because once the guys got bored with their frisbee, they decided to do what guys like to do. Bullying girls! And the attacks started..

*splash *run *splash *run *splash

And more splashing after that. The water tasted sooooooo salty. @.@ And then, everyone pretty much got completely drenched. It was disgusting but really really FUN.

Well to make it sound more disgusting, we didn't even get to bathe after our day at the beach. We were practically in that state, with sticky hair and whole body that smells like salt water, until we get back to Sunway. And guess what, we even went yumcha until like 3 in the morning.

I think I successfully feel and smell like a fish that day. :)

Thoughts: Rush

2011-09-09T20:27:00.001+08:00

Hi all.. *sad smile*

I know I've made the right decision to focus on my studies first, but why does it always feels like it's a wrong decision no matter which path I choose?

I'm trying very hard not to give in to any temptations and stick to my goals because knowing myself, I know once a rule is broken, the rest are bound to be broken as well. That is mostly why these days I always hurried home right after class before I got stuck to anything again.

And, this obsession of mine has got my friends annoyed, "Why are you always rushing to go back?"

I couldn't really answer them because it's something that is way more than just about studies. It's about me. Most of the time, I tend to not finish anything that I've started. So, this time around, I'm more determined than ever to do what I've promised myself to do.

So, now my friends thought I'm just freaking out for nothing and being kiasu. It does seem like it, but it's really not something that I could explain in words. So yeah, it still hurts.

"Life is A Balancing Act"

That was the theme of my Toastmaster's meeting yesterday. It totally mirrors what I'm seeking to find right now. The perfect balance in life.

Sometimes, you just wouldn't believe how fast time flies until it has already flew past you.

This was actually the first time where every individual in G11had turn into one big family. :)

So, what's up?

2011-09-07T23:19:00.000+08:00

Hmm, nothing much actually.

..... I meant, nothing much that could still keep me sane.

Besides the fact that my Progress Test 2 is coming in exactly 11 days and I'm obviously not anywhere close to being prepared, I have also stupidly (out of rash decision to be more participative) joined Deloitte Tax Challenge and the competition is coming really, really soon.

The only good thing I can think of is that we are participating as a team, and not individually. I bet my team members must be sighing at their horrible mistake for choosing me as part of their team.

Well, I just hope I wouldn't disappoint my teammates too badly. *prays hard

And I have also joined Sunway Toastmasters Club to improve on my public speaking skills (not that I have one in the first place). But it had took me so, so long to finally taken this first step to help myself for the future. I'm pretty sure this experience will definitely.. uhh, "expand my horizon". :)

To top it off, I'm also working part-time as an article writer. Nothing spectacular about it. Just some online work where I earn pennies from it. Not bad though, because I get to improve on my grammars and such.

Last but not least, I'm actually blogging full-time now. LOL. Okay, maybe sorta.

So, now I just need a little bit more than 24 hours a day to fit everything above including my sleep, sports, homework and studies. HAH No problem! @.@

Ah, time for some books now. Nights.

Okay, I am definitely feeling wayyy more depressed than I thought I was. I didn't even realise this until I met all my classmates again. I guess they felt it even before I did.

I now know it's not gonna be an easy task trying to keep up with my "rules".

If I were to say 'NO' to every outing/activities with my friends, I'm so gonna be known as The Party Pooper (yes, with the capital and all) And I obviously wouldn't want that to happen because I do WANT to go. I do WANT to join.

But I have never felt so behind my studies, I'm regretting every moment of it. Regret is useless though. Imagine going to class everyday not knowing a single thing the lecturer had taught yet didn't even have the slightest interest to figure out what was going on.

Yes, it has come up to that point. I don't want that to happen either because I do WANT to do well in my exams. It's a hell lot of pressure now that I'm in ACCA already. It's difficult to even pass, not to mention getting higher marks.

So technically, all that's left is an emo Party Pooper who is pretty much blank in her studies anyway.

I know balance is the key, but it's really not as easy as it seems. I'm always toppling off either way because I could not seem to find my balancing point.

I am afraid I will keep falling and falling until one day I decided to just give up entirely.

Goals

2011-09-05T14:06:00.000+08:00

I AM GOING BACK TO SUNWAY TODAY. *tears streaming down*
I am actually the latest one to go back yet I feel like time just flew by so quickly.

I had so, so much fun this week that I felt so down I have to go back to Sunway already. I guess the same thing pretty much applies to most of my Penangite friends who study at anywhere other than Penang. Heh.

That aside. Now that break's over, it's time for me to lay down a few rules for myself when I get back. When I said rules, I meant my to-do list. So, scream at my face or slap me awake when I ended up slacking and procrastinating!

Both you and I know how LAZY I can be.

#1 No more going out until late at night (yumcha sessions OFF)
#2 Try sleeping early, so I wouldn't be late to class anymore and can actually focus
#3 Need to really catch up on my studies (study everyday!!)
#4 NO MORE SKIPPING CLASS for whatever reasons (late)
#5 Exercise exercise exercise
#6 Drink oats and eat fruits everyday
#7 Try to blog as often as I can
#8 Wear my retainer at ALL times except when I eat or sing k. xD

That's all I can think of at the moment. Till then, bye again Penang~ T-T

Will miss everyone! *cries*

2011-09-02T12:38:00.000+08:00

Hi my fellow readers!! Guess what, I'm back again! :D

Oh. It's been THREE months already?! Heh.*guilty smile*

But! *acts bold* Fret not, guys.. Because I am turning over a new leaf! Yes, Eevy the Ultimate Procrastinator is turning over a new leaf. Both me and my blog.

Really. This time is no empty promises. It's serious shit. I have been playing so much lately that it's beginning to affect my studies WHICH IS BAD. So, I need something productive to do instead. Like blogging! I may not blog every single day, but it wouldn't be as bad as the usual unannounced 3 months hiatus.

That, I can assure you. :)

So, I might be starting a few projects to keep my blog posted. Like what other bloggers do. I sorta have a vague idea of what to do about it, but nothing in particular. ;) We'll have to wait and see.

And just a heads up, do notice the new "Labels" gadget at the sidebar for easy reference. And I have also decided to go simple with this new layout. Hope you guys like it!

See y'all very very soon. Hee!

Apple Teacher

2011-06-03T23:19:00.007+08:00

Aishh, I hate this. Six months after our last T6 lesson with Mr. Jana , we have come to this point again: yet another goodbye to our pretty awesome lecturer. Or, should I say the most doesn't-look-like-a-lecturer-more-like-a-kid, childish, hyper, crazy and uber successful lecturer I've ever seen.

Everyone, meet Miss Grace.

It is quite saddening to have gotten so close to a great friend-lecturer like her, and then you realised.. aw, we won't be having classes together anymore. Well obviously, as much as we all love her, I don't think she wanna see our faces again in her class (note: resit class). Neither do we. :)

But honestly speaking, I had doubts about her teaching at first because she seriously doesn't look like a lecturer to me la! Then as time passed, we gradually became closer and I was quite surprised that she's actually very dedicated to teaching. She wouldn't mind explaining over and over again until all of us understand. Sometimes even we felt paiseh for asking the same questions so many times, but she never once loses her temper and just explain again.

She earned a high respect from me. Despite being so kiddy most of the time, she is pretty experienced for her age (late-twenties) and she is always willing to share her experiences and opinions with us.

She once said she's more connected to our group than any other groups because we opened up to her, but I think it should be the other way around. She's not like most lecturers as she's quite open about everything which makes it so much easier for us to approach her.

Unfortunately, good times never last. It was finally the last day of T8 class with Miss Grace. :(

We threw a party for her at Sushi Zanmai and got her a Calvin Klein's perfume together with a Apple card handmade by one of my classmates filled with our messages. She's seriously an avid fan of Apple products! :D

So then, it's now our turn to make her proud by passing with flying colours in this coming finals.
Again, thanks for everything Miss Grace.

Finals On The Way

2011-05-26T14:57:00.001+08:00

As usual, by the time I actually took the time to update this poor blog, exams have never failed to be just around the corner. And this time, it's FINALS we're talking about; my gateway before I enter ACCA. =o

So, I might suddenly disappear from this blog and you'll know why. :)

Lately, there have been cases of acid splasher around here in KL, but of course, the police have yet to catch those people. And guess what, they are in Sunway now!! Apparently, there were attacks reported at Sunway Pyramid where the victim actually turned blind because of the acid! I'm not sure if this is true or not, but it's all over in Facebook. So, everyone please be real careful when you're out at the streets.

Alright, this is supposed to be a really, really short post because I really, really need to get started with this subject that I really, really hate. So, bye guys!!

. . . . .

. . . . .

. . . . .

. . . . .

Okok, but before I go.. I have got to say this: I'M DYING TO GO CHIONG K! Hehe. I am sooo addicted to shouting in the mic now, omg. No thanks to Caryn Leong for getting me so hyped!

And btw, you guys should really try watching How I Met Your Mother and of course, if you're up for some bloodshed and mindblowing cases, try Criminal Minds! :D And while you're at it, you should totally watch 49 Days too.. It's awesome!!

ALRIGHT, I'M DONE YAKKING! IT'S TIME TO STUDY... STUUUUUDYYYYYYY.... *chant endlessly* *sigh.

Ah.. I miss Penang already. 3 more weeks!!! :D

Smoke vs Respect

2011-05-20T01:56:00.001+08:00

Hah! Here we are: the rapid-update stage! I'm currently in some kind of a competition with somebody to keep our blogs posted. LOL, lame but productive! See? I'm updating! (But don't get your hopes up, though.. Well, you know me. Hee.)

Anyway, today I have something to rant about. Just so you guys know, I absolutely cannot stand TWO things in life:
1. People smoking in public.
2. Irrespectful LCLY people.

To be honest, I dunno which is worse. What do you think? And to think we all have to live with these people until we die. Which is actually pretty sad. :(

First of all, I never really understand the point of people smoking because those stupid little white sticks will burn your lungs, your throat, your oesophagus, your teeth, your alveoli and even your pocket! So, why do people still want to waste their money to kill themselves? Might as well hire me to kill you. =.=

But, the world has gone crazy. So, I don't really care if these people just want to die earlier than they should. It's their choice and it's none of my business. HOWEVER, them smoking in public is MY business.

I know, I know. We can't control what other people can or cannot do. But that's the whole point of this rant, isn't it? If I could do something about it, would I still be sitting here complaining? Hell no. I don't even know why is smoking legalized in the first place. Now, I feel like chopping off the people who discover tobacco, even though they are already dead.

Every single time I am eating happily at an outdoor place, there will be some idiots sitting around me puffing those disgusting smoke out of their mouth. And every single time, my face will turn black and I'd be thinking: HELLO! PLEASE STOP POLLUTING THE AIR AND I JUST WASHED MY HAIR, SO STOP BLOWING YOUR SMELLY SMOKE INTO MY HAIR! OH GREAT, NOW MY WHOLE BODY STINKS AND I'M TASTING YOUR SMOKE INSTEAD OF MY FOOD. PLEASE GO HOME AND PUFF ALL YOU WANT, I DON'T WANT TO DIE YET. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
(Please note that I'm still being courteous by saying 'Please' and 'Thank you'. Heh.)

But too bad, I can't do anything. Nope. Because I'd just get my head beaten up by those uncles. So, I just have to eat up all my words, my thoughts and their smoke.

And, how is it that youngsters nowadays think that smoking is some kind of a trend?! Does it look cool? NO. Does it give other people a good impression on you? NO. Do you smell good? NO. So why do they smoke?! I don't get it, I don't get it! Can someone please explain to me or are these people just plain brainless?

LOL I'm sorry, but I'm not done yet! SECONDLY, irrespectful people! These kind of people think that they are the king of the world or some sort. They don't give a damn about other people. They don't respect older people and they are rude.

Like that day, I went for lunch with some people and some of them just pissed me off! They haven't done anything to me, but to my mum. They need to realise that it's my mum that they're showing the attitude to. I really, really can't stand it. I wish I could do something about it. Yet again, all I could do is just shut my big mouth and stare daggers at them.

Gah. This is so frustrating! I could really use a change, but the world with the people in it seemed to get worse by each day. So, all I can do right now is just hope and pray.

Kids, say 'No' to smoking and grow up well. Everyone has a choice. It's up to you to make the right choice. ;)

WOW I SHOULD GET AN A FOR THIS! Nights everyone! :D

Back for good?

2011-05-18T00:15:00.008+08:00

Hahaha. Ain't going to explain why has it gotten to this stage again. LOL. BECAUSE THIS HAS HAPPENED SO MANY TIMES THAT WE'RE ALL USED TO IT. Am I right??!

LOL Somebody has said this to me: "Eh, CNY passed long time ago ady laa.. But each time I visit your blog, it's still Gong Xi Fa Cai. Walao ehh.. Update la.." Hahaha, paiseh. I think you guys should know what happened la. It's like a cycle already: Hibernate > Once-in-awhile update > Rapid update > Hibernate. Hee.

Few days ago, I went for a sleepover at Caryn's house and we actually dug up some old photos taken a few centuries ago.. But too bad, we lost some of the more epic FORM 1 photos and only managed to save some left, which is still many btw. So, how much exactly do we change in 2 years?

Year 2008 - Form 4

Now

Both were taken at Nichii. I don't think there are much changes though, maybe just fatter now? Hehe. I'll update more soon. Perhaps with more photos? - because I dunno if you guys actually read the stuff I write, or just glance through the pictures and exit. O_o Give me some feedback, k? I mean, if anyone's still reading. x)

At least, it's Gong Xi Fa Cai no more. :P

Gong Xi Fa Cai Part II

2011-02-20T21:40:00.002+08:00

Hi all, I'm going to blog for a bit before I start studying tonight. LOL yes, I am actually starting my revision. Like, FINALLY! Considering my Progress Test 1 is on March 1st, which is coming very very soon now. o_o"

What's worse is that I'm getting my results for my December finals tomorrow! Wow, talk about hypertension!! Wish me luck, guys! Since what's done is done, I hope all of us will smile with happiness when we get our results tomorrow. *prays hard*

________________________

When I said I've been going out from Penang all the way to KL, I wasn't kidding. LOL We kind of went for house-hopping around Ampang and Klang for the whole two days.

Thanks to all of them who brought us to their houses and let us go crazy over there. And also, thanks to all the "drivers" who drove us around. Heh. It was like a road trip, really. With 5 cars on the road, back to back. It was very fun!! :)

Like I said earlier, what's CNY without gambling right? So, we gambled from one house to another and another and another... Hah! See that skinny guy in yellow? He almost died being the "chong" on the first day because there were SO MANY of us!

But that was short lived. Because he pwn us all on the second day. T-T I LOST LIKE MAD. BOOHOO! Universal theory: Gambling is only fun when you win, it hurts like hell when you lose. Heh.

And, for the first time, we also get to "lou yi sang" together! Courtesy of our winners of the day: Pei Ying and Stephenie. So, thank you very much!! :D

We were kind of embarrassing, actually because the whole restaurant was filled with our "HUAT AHHHHHHH" and even "YAM SENGGGGGGGGGG", like we were at some kind of wedding dinner. -.-" LOL. Very meng-siasui-kan, yet very fun. Heh.

LOL, look at our end result of the poor "yi sang"! There was barely anything left on the plate! It was probably everywhere but the plate. Hahaha.. Luckily I was at another table, so I didn't have to eat with the mess. :P

We also went for Amanda's CNY BBQ party at her house. Thanks Shuey for fetching us there and bear with our (mostly mine) non-stop chatter. Heh. The food is really nice la, but this Ming Jet and Jay Shen just wouldn't stop about their 'burned sausages'. LOL.

Needless to say, I had a pretty awesome CNY. Thank you so much! YOU GUYS MADE MY DAY! ♥

Straits Quay

2011-02-15T02:45:00.005+08:00

Honestly.. I've never been so glad for the existence of air conditioners until mine started blowing out hot air two days ago. Seriously, I was almost baked alive in my room (hostel).

It's not that I can't even bear a little bit of heat. I've been living in my own house for the past 17 years without airconds (we only got it during Spm) and I was fine, BUT this one!! Let's just say I barely had any proper sleep for these 2 days because of the heat.

I think it was so bad mainly because all the windows are sealed shut and the hot air just kept on circulating around the room. Pfft. WHY ON EARTH DO THEY EVEN SEAL THE WINDOWS?! Neways, I'm just happy they fixed the aircond already and cool air is now blowing on my head as I type. Bliss~

_____________________

Last week, I finally get to visit Straits Quay with my family. I dunno why but I just didn't get the chance to go there when I went back for my December break. So, here we are! :D

The landscaping, the view, the pier.. It was all very, very pretty. And it has a very Victorian feel to its architectures. I like that place. A lot. But, I think it's wayyyyy too underused and underutilized for a place as pretty as this.

Because for one, I was bored to tears as there were pretty much nothing to do or see over there. Most shops are either too expensive/high class, or.. actually there's not THAT many shops to begin with, anyway.

And secondly, the mall is actually kind of small - despite having such big exterior. It's like you walk from one end to the other end, and that's it. That's all! And then, you're back to my point No.1.

Well, at least it is still pretty nonetheless. So, it has a very nice view for those photographers or just plain photo-taking lovers like me, to have a mini photoshoot there. And trust me, the pictures will not fail you.

[Above: There was this little girl who suddenly run in front of me right at the moment when my mum took the shot. So cute. :)]

Gong Xi Fa Cai Part I

2011-02-11T01:37:00.002+08:00

Oh hi. Happy Chinese New Year, everyone!! Ah, I guess I'm late again. But CNY lasts for 15 days ma, so I guess I'm not exactly that late... right? Heh.

I was soooo busy going out from Penang up to KL, that I can't even find time for myself. Oh dear, this is bad. Not only my blog is back to its dying mode, my studies are seriously dying as well! No kidding. I can barely remember anything I've learned in class. But yet, I still can't bring myself to study. Ah, slap me please.

Anyway, I had a pretty nice one-week CNY break. I get to meet almost everyone in Penang, since we're all back for the new year. :D And, I get to eat, talk and play. So, life's good. Hehe.

This time, I get to meet up with all the SSDs (Yay!). We had dinner at Seven in Gurney Plaza. Well honestly, I've never heard of it before but apparently, the food was not bad. So, we went there and I was surprised when I don't see any prices in their menu.

Eh hello! Heard of hak pengguna?! I have the right to know the prices before I step into your restaurant lo! Plan to cheat my money ah?! But it turned out, the prices for their dishes were already fixed for each category. Uh, okayyy... How am I to know? =x

Dinner was alright. Then later, we went to watch Tian Tian Hao Tian, a Malaysia-made chinese movie. Not bad at all, I must say. A huge leap from the disappointing Da Ri Zi (which was a waste of my time IMO) to something quite funny and meaningful.

If they carry on their efforts, I'm sure they will some day produce a movie as good as Money Not Enough 2.

I also get to meet up with Yvonne and Xing Yii! The four of us used to always stick together in class last time.

I'm glad nothing much has changed. Yvonne is still as slow and long-winded as ever, Chery being the same ol' Chery, complaining about how fat she is but still can't stop eating, and Xing Yii is still as clueless as she is smart! xD

LOL And we kind of have a routine now ever since our SPM Results Day. We ALWAYS meet up in Breeks (no matter Gurney or Queens) for our outing. We even sit at the same table all the time and we never leave until we talked for very long hours there! Btw, their grilled chicken chop with black pepper is super super nice la!! *stomach growling*

Haha, we hardly have the chance to vain anymore. So, please bear with our huge-ass vainpot photo. Hehe. This was taken when we were waiting for Chery Berry and Xing Yii to buy their drinks in Coffee Bean. Omg, now I see the major difference between big eyes and small eyes. *cries*

And, what's CNY without gambling and house-visiting? :D

Thanks, Zian for letting us crumble your house with our "HUATTT AHHH~~~" Heh. And thanks to Chen Ni for the BBQ (no pictures). I had a great time meeting the rest of OneOhClocks too! :) But, I can't believe I didn't get to meet AMANDA SIM! Hmmpf~

Ah, I hope we get to meet up with the JPA scholars soon before they start flying across the globe. =x

Happy Chinese New Year and Happy Pai Ti Kong Day!

Reunion and reunion

2011-01-21T17:43:00.008+08:00

Hey there! How's everyone doing? I'm so glad I can finally post up something without blowing my head off because our hostel line here is seriously getting worse by the minute! It takes forever to load, meh.

But on a happier note, I am going back home in a week's time! Can you believe how fast time is flying? I thought I just came back here and now I'm preparing to go back to Penang. Hah, CNY is coming really really soon, and I'm looking forward to loads of angpows and food! :D

_____________

Speaking of which, I should have upload these about forever and a day ago. Sorry for the delay! :)

About a few weeks ago, we finally managed to successfully organized a class gathering after putting it off so many times because our timing were so bad. Heh. So.. AT LAST, on the 30th of Dec, all of us went to have dinner at Azuma, a Japanese restaurant in Queens.

The food was pretty good, actually. I wouldn't mind going there again. Hehe. But most importantly, we get to chat and update each other about our current lives. It was nice, hearing stories from them. Especially, now that all of us are in different pathways now. :)

Can you imagine it? About a year ago, we were still in our school uniforms, fooling around in the class, dozing off during Sejarah's lesson, laughing at Ms. Chow's jokes, talking about sex in Pn. Chang's class.. AND IT HAS BEEN A YEAR ALREADY!! T_T

Unfortunately, not everyone could make it. (Xing Yii? Esther? Zian?!) Bleh. But I guess it is no easy job to get everyone present, since most of us are not in Penang at the same time. So, I'm still happy that many of us could made it that day. And, everyone's looking good yo!

Hopefully, we'll have another class gathering in future. You know, with more 5 Arifians.. :D

_______________

Not only that, we finally (FINALLY!!) had a proper SSD outing with EVERYONE present! Oh, joy to the world! In case you didn't know.. just to get all six of us for a gathering could be as hard as moving an elephant with your finger. o_o

For almost a million times, we're always missing a member or two for whatever reasons during a gathering. So, yayy for the success!! :D I love you all~

For now, I'm really hoping for some exciting stuff to happen soon, so that I will have something to write about. Life is getting dull lately. Can't wait to go back home, see y'all soon! xD

We Wish You A Merry Chrismas & A Happy New Year!

2011-01-09T21:57:00.168+08:00

Whoopps. Maybe a little too late now. Heh. But, better late than never.. right? (excuses, excuses!) :P

Anyway, hello! I am now back in Sunway already for my new sem (bleh). But I have pretty much nothing to update about myself lately because all the subjects and lecturers are still fairly new to me. So, I guess I'll have to wait and see. And hopefully, they won't kill us anytime soon. *prays hard*

____________

So, that aside, I've gotta say.. I had a pretty fun time during Christmas and New Year's Eve!! :)

On Christmas Day, I went to Julia's BBQ beach party with Zian. At first, I thought it was kind of awkward because the rest of them were all Julia's schoolmates and I didn't know any of them. But they turned out to be quite friendly and we fit in the group right away.

Then the next day, the SSD (minus Leo) went to Chery's annual Christmas party at her house.

It is always nice hanging out with them because it is SO HARD for us to meet up now where everybody is free. So, yeah.. We talked. We laughed. We shared news among one another. And somehow, it ended up into a photo-taking session! LOL. Hmm, I wonder who's the culprit?

And I don't think I've ever laughed so much in my life! Haha. I FRIGGIN LOVE THEM!!

After a few shots though, we felt that it didn't exactly feel like Christmas.. So, we tried to create the atmosphere but as you can see above, we failed horribly to try and imitate a pair of reindeers' horns and a roof of a home (O.O) Hence, the props came in. With santa hats and all.. Hehe. :D

[Edit: Everyone is correcting me that Wan Yuen was actually imitating a Christmas tree! LOL]

Well, of course that WASN'T enough! What's a Christmas without MR. SANTA CLAUS?!!! So...

Ta-dahhhhhh~~ OUR VERY OWN SANTA CLAUS! Wahahahahahaha... Don't you think she look super cute?! I do, I do!! :D We practically laughed our asses off, trying to assemble her outfit.

And what the heck! Have you ever seen a Santa throwing only packets of biscuits as presents? LOL, so low budget mia this Santa. Boo sama dia!! xD

OMG I had so much fun that night! Now we all know how Chery Berry looks like in a Santa suit. Hehe. We also exchanged presents, and I got a Skinfood hand cream from Caryn. Yay for me! Just what I needed. My hands are as rough as sandpaper. Boohoo.

________________

Then during New Year's Eve, I went out with OneOhClock to countdown for the year 2011 in Queensbay. Walao, the place was sooooo packed with people la! @.@

But, it was a horrible countdown to me because the hosts were so lousy at emcee-ing. We could barely hear them counting down at all, then suddenly.. "5, 4....3,2,1" and silence. Then after a few seconds, there was a 3-mins fireworks. I was like O_o?? the whole time.

I was expecting a better countdown lo. I thought every countdown should begin with 10 seconds? And shouldn't all of us shout "HAPPPYYYY NEWWW YEAARRRRR" after the last second with the fireworks playing at the same time? Haihs, poor management.

Well, at least I had a great time with all of them. After the countdown, we even went to KFC to yum cha. LOL it was almost 2 by the time I reached home! All in all, it was nice to welcome the new year with your close friends, even if the countdown sucks. Hehh..

2010 in a Flash

2010-12-30T01:57:00.005+08:00

It's the time of the year already. I can't believe it.. 2010 is going to be over soon and it's gonna be another brand new start again in just a few hours. I'm feeling so nostalgic at the moment. It has been a year full of joy, laughter, happiness and tears for me.

♥♥♥♥♥♥

2010 is the year where I left my high school, my second home. Although I'm free from all those ridiculous rules and unreasonable teachers now, I do miss school. It was the place I grew, learn and meet people. Nothing will ever replace the memories I had with all the great friends I met there.

I have always wanted to leave high school as fast as possible. But now that I'm over that phase, I wish I could stay there just a little bit longer. I'm growing up to be an adult now and it's scary to face the real world so soon. Carrying a school bag and wearing school uniform didn't seem so bad, after all.

I also had one of the best moments in my life when I obtained my Spm results early this year. The joy of self satisfaction of doing a great job is unexplainable. I thought my heart might explode with happiness, knowing that all my hard work had paid off and I did not let my parents down. I was happy I did not let myself down. The feeling was just.. incredible. :)

2010 is the year I had plenty of 'first time's. Like, when I passed my driving exam and got to drive on the road for the first time. Or, when I got my first job ever.. working as a part time temp in an office.

I had the opportunity to work with much older people and get a taste of working life. I'm glad that all my colleagues gave me a chance to learn despite being so young and new. I have really gained lots of experience through the three-months ordeal.

I learned to swim for the first time too. In the past, I always miss out all the fun when I join my friends for a swim because of the obvious fact that I can't swim. But now, I can finally swim around with them and actually burn calories, not just stand there like an idiot holding on the edges of the pool.

Besides that, I also left Penang for the first time to live on my own in another state. It took me a lot of courage to leave home because I'm so used to having my parents taking care of everything for me. But in Sunway, I no longer have mummy and daddy by my side. I'm forced to grow up. To live independently. To experience new things. And...

To see new places. Thanks to my friends, I get to go to a lot of new places for the first time. It is always nice to go somewhere I didn't have the chance to go before. And I'm proud to say, I did flying fox at least once in my lifetime even though I'm dead afraid of heights. :)

I finally get to walk up on the stage to receive a scholarship for the first time. I have always envied my friends who are so smart that they get prizes every single year! But now, I had my turn too. :D

This year is also the year I turned eighteen. And for the first time, I did not get to celebrate it with my family and friends in Penang. And.. for once, my birthday falls on my exam date. I never have that problem before as my birthday is always during the holidays! D: Yee, this is bad. LOL

But most importantly, I get to meet these awesome people in Sunway. They are the ones who bring life and laughter to our group, G11. I cannot imagine my life without them there! It would have been so dull and miserable! And, I'm also grateful for my equally as awesome lecturers who really gained my respect and love: Mr. Jana and Mr. Bill. Heh.

Everything has passed by so quickly and before we knew it, the year is coming to an end now.

I hope everyone will have a pleasant year in the coming 2011. ♥

Life is a Roller Coaster

2010-12-23T23:04:00.004+08:00

Life. It is so unpredictable that it feels like you're going on an endless roller coaster ride. You would never know what is really at the end, but you just have to keep going on and on and on... regardless of what will or going to happen.

But sometimes, it is kinda scary because I didn't know what to expect at all. =/

Like how I've planned my whole week last weekend. I was so happy to be going out again with all my friends which, for once, WITHOUT ANY CLASHES WITH EACH OTHER! And out of the blues, I got sick? One minute I was fine, the next I got a minor sore throat.

And hola! I could barely get up the next day. High fever, serious sore throat, flu and cough all came attacking me at once. That was probably the worst I've felt because the fever just wouldn't died down and even the doctor was suspecting dengue. Because of that, I had to bail out on every outings I have agreed to go and stayed at home, dying slowly..

Well, who would have thought eh? You could have plan out your life very carefully but something could just happen the next second and blew it, or you could have not plan anything at all but something nice could ended up surprising you!

Life. So many ups and downs that it is making me dizzy. But since I'm already on the ride, I shall just go with the flow and see what happens next. I can always close my eyes and scream my lungs out, can't I? x)

A City With Fake Trees

2010-12-15T03:02:00.005+08:00

Whootss! Another post in two days! This is goooood...

Hah, I hope this will become a habit soon so that my blog wouldn't be neglected so often. Yes! I now have plenty of time to do whatever I want and I shall savour these few weeks to the max before I return to my miserable life in Sunway.

Okay, just kidding. My life isn't miserable there. :) I think I'm gonna miss it soon, but just not now ya know? I just came back home and it feels sooo good to sleep on my own bed, eat good food and meet all my friends again. Sometimes, home will still be the best no matter how far you go. ♥

But sometimes, you should also expand your horizon by visiting new places you have never seen before. Like me! I have visited the City of Colourful Lights on Fake Trees and Animals!!

...which is also generally known as I-City by most people. Heh.

So, right after our last paper that day (which I kinda screwed it up, but I'm not going into details or I might go on forever..), we were all itching to go out and have some fun after all the torture we have been through for the past two weeks. Hence, we decided to go to Klang for some delicious Bak Kut Teh!

Unfortunately for us, the supposedly nice restaurant was closed, so we had to choose another restaurant which was only so-so. But it didn't matter because we were all in a post-exam mood that we didn't really care! In fact, it was actually pretty fun because we were in such big group! Hehe.

After our much filling dinner, we headed over to a place that was completely generated by electricity and only come alive at night. The I-City. *jeng jeng jeng*

You can already see rows of trees from the highway without even going inside the place itself.

And when you actually reach the place, you will see even MORE trees shining with different colours of light...

......

......

And.. that is pretty much it. Just rows and rows of trees, which blinded my eyes after a while.

LOL, don't get me wrong. The place is actually quite pretty, despite being so boring. I mean, if you're new to the place like I was, then it's not that bad. Only if you don't stare at the lights for too long.

One good thing is that I can still take loads of pictures with the light-emitting trees. HAH!

And, they even have a, I dunno what is it really - Ice World? Snow World? A stuffy room with not-very-cold airconds, filled with white fluffy stuff and snowman?? LOL We still took a group photo anyway to mark our trip there.

I personally don't think I will ever step onto the ground of I-City again. But hey, it's just me. I dunno about the rest though. I might not like it that much, but it was still nice going out somewhere else other than studying in my depressing room. Plus, it's been quite some time since we go out and play.

Finally, to end our post-exam celebration, half of the gang (the rest went home) went to Sunway Pyramid to watch the latest installment of the Narnia chronicles. LOL yes, we went for a midnight movie. The movie was just okay, to me. Not bad, not great. What was really fun was actually me and Pei Ying having to play The House of The Dead for the first time! Woo, chigek!!

And, the most eventful thing all night would be stuffing 8 people in a Myvi and almost got caught by the police in a road-block. HAHA. What an exciting way to end the day indeed. :)

I Have Awesome Friends

2010-12-12T21:00:00.004+08:00

Hello!

As you may already know, my ever dreaded finals is officially over! So now, I can finally find the time to blog a real post and not just a short "i-just-wanna-let-you-know-i'm-not-dead" post.

Unlike every other year, my birthday unfortunately falls on my exam day this year. Well obviously I was pretty sad because I could not celebrate it like I did for the last two years. Remember this and this, anyone? And for another thing, my family was not with me. So, yeah... I was sad.

But despite all that, I did have a pretty good time. SIMPLY BECAUSE I HAVE SUCH AWESOME FRIENDS WHO REALLY MADE MY DAY! ♥

A few days before our exam, Serene and Pei Ying brought me to Pyramid for me to choose my presents. They kept apologizing for ruining the surprise and all, but they were afraid I wouldn't like whatever they chose. Truth to be told, I was indeed quite bummed at that time..

They told me they would rather ruin the surprise to buy me something I like than to surprise me with something I don't. But as it turned out, my body really didn't quite fit in the dress they chose and it totally does not suit me at all.

So, it was a good thing they did not buy it yet! They ended up buying me a dress from Forever 21 and a watch from Padini Authentics that I personally like.

I then realized they were right because we had SO MUCH FUN searching for the presents together! And, we get to see leng zai promoter in F21! Hahaha. So, thank you very much for sacrificing your study time just for that. I really appreciate it. And of course, thanks to everyone who shared the presents as well!

And thanks, Bel for the "sandbag" pillow, Melody! Hehe. She was the first one to give me my present a few weeks before the real day. LOL I hugged it every time I go to sleep now. It is very comfy and squishy. Loved it! Thank you! ♥

On Tuesday night, we (hostel people) were all busy studying for our next paper at the study area. Once the clock strikes 12, all of them started singing 'Happy Birthday' song for me in like, multiple language. LOL After that, books were all forgotten. Hehe.

Then out of the blues, Chen Ni took out her present for me. I can't believe I didn't even notice it the whole night long! o_o Anyway, it was a Roxy pencil case which I super like!!! Because my current one is so dirty and old and disgusting... But that's not all! She even made cute little baskets with messages inside for me which were put inside a Honey Stars box! SO CUTE.

She made and wrote all 18 little baskets to mark my 18th birthday. They were very funny and sweet, THANK YOU SO MUCH GAN! ♥

And thanks to everyone else who called and messaged me. I had fun reading you guys' messages and it really made me happy and touched. I may not have a birthday party or whatnot, but I think everyone had made it special for me.

So, thank you!!!!! Mwaks~

Dying..?

2010-12-02T22:34:00.002+08:00

Okay, I CANNOT stay for long. Just a quick update to let everyone know that I'm still breathing even if I'm half dead at the moment... because the REAL exam is in 3 days?

Ah, I am seriously freaking out! I have got to pass all 4 papers in one shot! BECAUSE EXAMS ARE MONEY!! My results were not really consistent all this while and I have been really (and I mean, really) slacking off like hell lately. I just couldn't help it.

I'M SO LAZY THAT I'M MAD AT MYSELF.

Everyone else is definitely working hard like hardcore robots without any sleep, and yet I'm studying at my own slow pace and relax as much as I can (probably too much). Gosh, what is wrong with me??!

I guess I still have 3 days to repent and work harder than what I'm doing right now.

Wish me luck and I'll see you soon. Bye!!

Glamorous Life

2010-11-21T12:34:00.126+08:00

Hi all. Here's a short update on our trip to Bukit Bintang yesterday to watch a Dance Flash Mob at the entrance of Lot10. I've gotta admit that I love Bukit Bintang. The streets. The malls. The entire atmosphere really makes me feel like I'm living a fabulous life.

Except, I don't. Pavilion is good for window shopping. Pretty stuff with REALLY pretty prices.

Sorry, I did not take any photos of the Flash Mob because I was taking video at that time. And obviously uploading it here using our hostel line will be a joke, so I shall write about it instead.

Before starting, they have this model attracting people's attraction at the entrance first:

She was busy posing and pretending to be taking a real photoshoot there. Well of course, everyone oohh-ed and ahh-ed and started snapping pictures of her (me included). Then after like 5 minutes, a group of random people ambushed her "photoshoot" and started dancing. The music began to play and more people joined in the dance.

It was 15 mins long and I've gotta give credits to every dancers there for putting their effort to perform the whole routine. It was no easy task remembering all the steps and dancing in front of a crowd. Awesome performance but somehow, I didn't think it felt like a flash mob to me. Just my two cents though.

Later, we went to Pavilion. And omg, it's so pretty! Took a gazillion photos with the decorations. Haha, so nice la. Makes me feel like Christmas is here already! My friends are like, "You sure wanna take photo with this wan... =.=" Hehe. Can't blame me, I like pretty stuff.

We also get to take pictures with Marc Jacob's models! OMYGEE that female model is SO FREAKING TALL man! All of us felt like shorties next to her, even the male model (I think). Whoots, and I get to stand beside Mr. Belly Button! Hahahahaha.

If only the taxi fare is NOT SO BLOOD SUCKING, I could go there everyday! Okay, see ya guys!

NO WATER!

2010-11-20T13:15:00.003+08:00

Okay, I am now annoyed to the max. And I need to rant.
THERE'S CURRENTLY NO WATER IN OUR CONDO AGAIN. WTF.

I can't believe we had to pay so much yet the facilities are so lousy. I've been waiting for an hour already to get a freaking shower. I think the management should fix whatever they wanted to fix ASAP lo. How could they expect us NOT to use water and take their own sweet time fixing it? And I don't think there's any notice either.

Garh, I am so mad. I desperately need a shower right now.

-.-"

Good Luck..

2010-11-16T00:00:00.003+08:00

I support TCMaine.

http://www.smashpop.net/

Thank you, sir.

2010-11-13T16:38:00.000+08:00

Time flies, really.

I still remember my first lesson in T1 class. Chen Ni and I still didn't know anyone at that time and everything seemed so new. I remember we were all waiting patiently for the arrival of our first lecturer who was kind of late.

Then, suddenly in came this big Indian man who claimed to be the technician, announcing to the whole class that our T1 lecturer is going to be late because of the jam and that he would be there until our lecturer arrives.

After a very long time though, our lecturer is still nowhere to be seen. Luckily, that Indian man kept us entertained. He was very funny and cracked jokes the entire time. But, I was not happy that our lecturer is so late.

Then suddenly to our surprise, that Indian man turned his name tag around that read "Part Time Lecturer" and introduced himself as Mr. Jana. He was indeed our T1 lecturer and we have all been fooled! Like idiots! And since then, he became our Funny Man Lecturer for T1 and T6. :D

And now, after 6 months, we had our last T6 lesson with Mr. Jana. It's sad that he won't be teaching us anymore because he is an awesome lecturer. Not only is he funny, he is a very experienced and wise person. I wish him a blessed life with his family.

Thank you, Sir. We will miss you!! :D

Astro Dance Battle

2010-11-07T10:49:00.007+08:00

Yesterday, we went to watch the Hip Hop Street Dance, Battleground (Astro) at the main entrance of Sunway Pyramid. We were watching it "live" but we had to rehearse the applauding SO MANY TIMES that I got tired of waiting.

And we practically stand there for more than 3 hours, fighting heat and blocking heads, just to watch the intense dance battle among groups. So, was it worth it?

LOL Worthy enough for me to go there again today. =D

I also get to meet the hosts, Serena C (Mix Fm) and Gan Mei Yan (My Fm). They are both great DJs and I absolutely love their voices, especially Serena's. Mei Yan is really pretty in person but a tad too skinny because her dress is so loose on her. Still pretty though. Hehh..

Today is gonna be the Semifinals of the competition. It's gonna be so much more intense than yesterday's. All the groups are entertaining and interesting in their own styles of presenting their story. It could be anyone's game because they are equally as good.

I have a few favourites but I can't seem to remember who is who. LOL I only recognized them through their dance routine. xD

I am prepared to enjoy the show today. I hope we get to sit this time.

Flying FOX

2010-11-04T23:10:00.008+08:00

I am proud to say, I HAVE CONQUERED MY FEAR!!

Few days ago, we went to play flying fox at SkyTrex Adventure Park in Taman Pertanian Malaysia, Bukit Cahaya Seri Alam. It was an unofficial class outing, but I was happy that most of us could make it because it is so rare for us to go together in such a big group!

At first, I almost did not go because of my fear of height. LOL remember this: "First time"? That was when I first experienced a mini flying fox in CGL. But this was different - it's about 17 meters high.

Just by climbing that stupid ladder is enough to make me pant like crazy. And that was just the beginning of the entire thing. LOL. On the way up, I was trying not to look down and just focus on my steps, "Keep going, keep going.."

There were a lot of challenges along the way, not just the flying fox. It was frightening at first, then it got easier. But the worst will still be the hanging cylinders!!

It looks easy but that stupid thing is so unstable and kept swinging that makes it hard for you to move. My heart almost fall out along with my jelly legs at that time. =.=" The Tarzan swing was hard too, but I just walked on the rope instead.

I think the flying fox is FUN and EXHILARATING! However, I was really afraid of the moment just before I jump because you're supposed to LET GO of your body and I was just too scared. And, I've gotta say this again: This photo of Eugene flying is awesome!

Luckily that wasn't me. Because I wouldn't have look so yeng and pro; probably too busy screaming like a mad person. xD Hehe.

The whole duration took approximately 2 hours, but it felt like half an hour. The wait for our turns was even longer than the game itself. Because there were just so many of us! I am so happy I went. The feeling after the whole thing was so nice, especially for me, because I never expected myself to go through all the stages!

Special thanks to Soon Keong for staying behind me because I was scared. LOL I know you wanted to play first but you stayed behind anyway. So, thanks a bunch! And, credits to Liyana and Amanda for their amazing photos during this entire trip.

I really had a lot of fun. I wish all of us could do this again.

SSD Reunion

2010-10-31T22:37:00.003+08:00

Hi all, I can't believe I am going back to Sunway already. Noooo... =(

I think this one whole week passed too fast la! I don't want to go back yet.. Although I do miss my friends there (even if they bully me every single day =P), I am really dreading the "SUPER INTENSE" revision classes. And of course, my results for Mock.. *gulp

Two days ago, I went out with the SSD! Hahaha, to think I could still use this term after so long.

LOL Btw, SSD stands for Six Sparklin' Divas; not Student Services Department ya. It was a group name we came up with in Form 1. Haha, it seems like it just happened yesterday but we're all big girls now.

I felt like I haven't seen Leo in AGES! Probably after getting our Spm results until now. And as busy as she is, I am glad Wan Yuen could make it too. They're all looking pretty good. =D

It was fun catching up with them after so long. We met up at Home's Cafe in D'Piazza. Caryn brought the stuff we used to do when we were still in the same class. LOL it was so embarassing and funny!! All the crazy things we do~ Hehe. I'm surprised Caryn still keep all that!

But if only Cherylene and Shu Zian were there, then it would be a real SSD Reunion. Sorry I didn't ask you, Zian. I thought you were preparing for your exam. Sorry!! Next time, we shall have another outing, together with you and Cherylene when we come back again in December!

Hopefully, it will be the six of us then.. =D

Night Out

2010-10-28T01:32:00.004+08:00

I absolutely love Penang hawker food.

Hence, we decided to go to the Northam Beach Cafe for our dinner. There, I get to meet up with Shu Zian, Yvonne, Julia, Carmen, Kha Rynn and Henry. It's good to see them again. =D

Just a side note, I HEART THE GERMAN SAUSAGE there. Very expensive though. Rm9.50 for one German sausage, one corn and 2 scoops of mashed potatoes. But super delicious, to ME lar.. xD

I wish I could just try every stall because I wanted to eat practically everything. The Western food, Lum Mee, Pasembur, Grilled/BBQ Fish (or what we call 'XIO HU' in Hokkien) and Bak Kut Teh are pretty good. Shit, I WANNA EAT PASEMBUR ALL OF A SUDDEN. o_o

Btw, thanks Henry.. for the drinks.

LOL, i was saying to Carmen, "You were taking our photo right??" and pointed at her. I don't know why but I like this picture? Seems natural and funny. Both Chen Ni and I looked so happy. Hehe.

Later, we went to Penang Road with the hope of eating Chendol. But of course, the shop was already cleaning up by the time we reached there. BUMMED! I was craving for Chendol lo. =( So, we ended up in a nearby 7-Eleven eating Slurpee and ice-cream. Hah.

Then, we just stand at some random spot and chat. The whole town was so dead on a Tuesday night and we got nowhere to go..

So after that, they all tried cramming into my car (there were 8 of us) and I freaked out! LOL Isn't it funny how they wanted to cram into my tiny little Viva when both Carmen and Kha Rynn have such big cars?? Anyhow, we took a few shots with my car before moving to Carmen's.

We were honestly crazy. LOL How on earth did we even fit 4 people in front?

Just before we left, Julia told us a ghost story about a kind of Malay ghost called POCHONG, that is usually wrapped up with white cloth and hang on a tree. It's kind of freakish..

Then suddenly.. we realized that right in front of us, was a TREE!!!

All of us freaked out and quickly went home. LOL. What a night.

Home Sweet Home

2010-10-26T00:49:00.002+08:00

I'M HOME!! It feels so good to be back.
Even though everyone is either having exam right now or not in Penang at the moment. )=

I am so happy I get to meet Cherylene again just before she left. We almost didn't get to meet up since she was going back to KL on the same day I came back!

And today, I went on a date with Caryn (LOL ian don't get jealous pls hehe.) and we had so much to talk about! We practically talk from the moment we met until the moment she went home. LOL I'm glad nothing has changed between us; we're still as close as ever. ♥

We went to watch You Again. The movie was only so-so. It was occasionally funny but very predictable and quite boring at some parts. I wouldn't recommend you to watch it in the cinema, but it was a light movie that was pretty enjoyable for us today.
Well obviously, any movie would still be better than Child's Eye.

And, I get to eat my Hokkaido's green tea ice-cream! I can't believe they don't have it in Sunway. O.O

Mock Can Go Die

2010-10-23T12:24:00.009+08:00

Yippee yippee yay yay~ It's over! Mock's over! Hell's over!
Well at least for now.

Needless for me to say, it KILLED me. I'm so glad I've got a break now, because I really don't think I could face my results so soon. All I need to do now is let it go and relax. Yes, that's all I need to do.

And I'm going back home again tomorrow. Wheee, I'm happy! Let's go out!! =D
Btw, DON'T WATCH CHILD'S EYE IF YOU CAN. That movie sucks to the core.
But you can try out RED, it is funny and cool. Retired Extremely Dangerous. HAH! Awesome!

♥

Copycat

2010-10-19T14:21:00.130+08:00

Haihs.

Today is the first day of my mock exam.
Finally, after listening to me whining and complaining for so long, IT'S HERE. ALREADY. O_O

It was pretty bad for my T3 (one of the subjects) because the questions were so tricky and confusing. I didn't really know how to do - and the worst part was the decimal points! And the control accounts! And the trial balance! LOL, we shall now pray hard for my survival.. =)

Fortunately, CSB (English) was alright. It was like sitting for SPM again because we also have the passage-and-summary kind of thing. I'm just glad I'm over THAT now. 2 papers down, 3 to go~~

BUT! Before I go, I have a little something to say about people who cheats in the exam. I'm not saying I didn't cheat at all - I did. LOL. During Moral exam. That was because nobody did actually study anything and we already planned beforehand to copy each other. In fact, everybody copies everybody for Moral. Which is basically like the blind leading the blind. o_o

Well anyway, that's not the case. Moral is pretty much a subject where nobody cares and we only studied it because we had to. On the contrary, I don't think it is right to copy for our MAIN CORE SUBJECTS. Not that I'm saying copying during Moral is allowed and others are not.. but really, COMMON SENSE?? Why would you copy for the MAIN CORE SUBJECTS that would sorta be the determining factor for your future job? Wouldn't you want to evaluate yourself and see how good you are?

It only makes you unlikeable and annoying (I mean, if you keep asking from people who clearly does not want to give you the answers.) Everyone will try and stay away from you during exams because they are scared you will ask for answers. Nobody wants to share tips with you because they feel that you don't deserve it. And even if you get good results, nobody cares because you copied!

So, what's the point?

Scholarship Day

2010-10-12T18:56:00.010+08:00

Hello everyone,

I'm actually waiting for my turn to use the bathroom now, so I shall update a bit over here since I might not have the time later. I've gotta say:

I AM REALLY GOING CUCKOO OVER THIS COMING EXAM!!

Here are some of the pics taken during our scholarship ceremony last Saturday. =)

We were so cheeky that we sneaked out of the hall to online in the library so that we don't have to listen to boring speeches. Hehe. Not entirely our fault, because we also kena cheated by being asked to come at 8.30 when the ceremony only starts at 10. o_o"

Ceh, make me wake up so early nia.

But it was alright because this is the first time in my life to ever receive a scholarship. =D

Mock exam begins next week. OMG, I NEED TIME! @.@

And I need a break too! I'm down with a headache now and I don't feel so good. I think it's because of lack of sleep?? Ah, how am i going to sleep early tonight when I have shitloads of stuff to study?? *cries*

Steamboat Rocks!

2010-10-08T20:19:00.003+08:00

SO, HERE IT IS!

I had so much fun yesterday that I have to post up the pictures today.. It was a birthday celebration for my nutty bestf, Chen Ni and another classmate, Grace. Their birthdays are back-to-back this weekend, so we decided to celebrate together..

We had an awesome steamboat! I'll let the photos do all the talking. Hehe.

We laughed so hard and make so much noise as if the place was ours. We literally went crazy but it was really really fun. Hope the birthday girls enjoyed themselves.. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, YOU TWO! <3

I Need Motivation.

2010-10-05T22:34:00.014+08:00

Hi there,
I've gotta say, things have change for the better since my previous post. I am happy now. I no longer feel depressed for the need to change myself in order to please everyone. I've realized that all I need to do is just be myself. That's how people like me for who I am and NOT what I make myself be. Thanks a lot to Shu Zian and Yvonne for making me realize that. <3

And I've learned to truly let go and move on. Previously, I was so affected by what people say that I let it change my entire personality, instead of just improving on my mistakes. So, one thing about life is to forgive and forget. Then, you'll definitely live happily ever after because everybody makes mistakes. xD

I am sooooo glad that I get to meet almost everyone back in Penang during my Raya break 2 weeks ago. It almost feels like high school again and I seriously miss them loads. Especially Yvonne, Xing Yii and Cherylene.

We were like this four CRAZY people who were always stuck together in 5 Arif. Haha. I miss us laughing like lunatics and talking like there's no tomorrow whenever teacher's not in. I remember us shouting and screaming out of the window right after SPM was over. I also miss listening and crying together when we were having problems. Words can't describe how much I miss those moments. *wails*

Lately, I've been procrastinating a lot. SLACK SLACK SLACK. My mock exam is coming really, really soon and I'm still dilly dallying over here when everyone else is already working their ass off. I didn't do all that well during my last Progress Test. So, I desperately need to get my head in the game.. ASAP!! I need MOTIVATION.

I'm gonna be quite busy for the coming weeks. Hopefully, I would be busy studying instead of doing something else. And of course, I would also be busy celebrating somebody's upcoming birthday. Hehe. I give you a clue: She's my sister. <3

Well, chaoz for now. It's time to study!

Back!

2010-09-08T00:49:00.024+08:00

Hey readers (if there's any)..
It's been quite some time now since i last blog. I'm surprised some of you still make the effort to drop by my blog to see if it's updated. Thanks and sorry for the hiatus again. Honestly, I kind of lose the enthusiasm to blog some time ago but thankfully, the mood to blog is finally back again. Not only that, I've been falling behind from everyone elses' blogs too. Ah.. I'll try my best to update more often now. I mean, really this time. :)

So, what was up with me lately?
I've just finished my Progress Test 2 last week and college is still as hectic as always. The hours we studied this sem are like 3 times longer than the previous sem and the stuff we're studying now is getting tougher. I'm already starting to feel the pressure now and I'm pretty sure that it will only get worse in ACCA level.

But that aside, I've been playing around too. Hehe. This is because CAT is our only chance to play before we were sent to HELL next year. So, we gotta play hard now while we still have time! :D

Thanks to a couple of my friends, I've gotten the chance to explore their hometowns at Klang and Ampang. They have brought us, hostel people to eat their famous food. Like, my favourite Bak Kut Teh in Klang and special Ampang Yong Tau Foo. And trust me, you wouldn't be able to find the REAL famous one unless you're the local there because there were just too many restaurants selling the same thing!

In Klang, we went to the "Malaysia's Largest Jusco" as my friend kept saying, to watch the best movie of the year, Inception. We also get to go to the Look Out Point in Ampang, which was also known as either Little Genting or Hulu Langat (I'm not sure because different people told me different thing. LOL) But the view at night was really awesome because we get to see the whole KL city from the top of the hill! Although the mosquitoes there can really bite you to death, but it was pretty fun anyway. :)

Mind you, we didn't go to Klang and Ampang on the same day! That would be crazy because they were about an hour apart! Hehe..

Besides that, we also traveled all the way to Cheras for the longest night market in KL. (I think, hehe..) It took us almost one hour just to get there. But it was worth it because I love Cheras Night Market! It was always crowded with people and there were loads of F-O-O-D!! :D They have pretty much everything there including their famous Stinky Tauhu, which I'll never go near.. *shudders at the thought* I couldn't even explain the smell of it; probably a combination of drain water and shit. LOL I AM NOT EXAGGERATING. Ironically, of course, there were a lot of people lining up for it anyway. *speechless*

And staying here did make me realize one thing: going ANYWHERE is far except Sunway Pyramid. LOL seriously.. It usually takes us AT LEAST half an hour to reach our destination and that is consider pretty near already. To think that I always complain that traveling to Gurney which only took 20 mins is far! xD

A few weeks ago, we also had fun preparing birthday presents for 2 of our crazy buddies, Vincent and Soon Keong. Thanks to Bel for driving us there, we went to MidValley Megamall (which was about 30 mins away, btw) to search for their presents without the boys' knowledge. Then later, we crashed at her house to make cards using black manila cards, wrap the presents, jump on her bed and take loads of pictures.. Hehe..

I never knew surprising people could be this fun! The look on their faces when we gave them their presents were priceless. :)

Everything was great and I was really having the time of my life here. Until recently... I realized I am no longer happy as I used to be. Now, a lot of dramas and love-hate thing began to form among ourselves in our group. At first, it was very fun and exciting. Although we have just known each other for a short while, we felt like we have all been friends forever because we were very united and did almost everything together as a group.

But as time passed, we began to see each others' flaws and weaknesses. A certain person can suddenly become very annoying to you. Or, that person could be rude and nasty all of a sudden. You wouldn't have know all these beforehand unless you know them well enough. And that itself has become a problem.

In the beginning, we didn't know anything because we were only getting to know each other. And now that we are all so close, we couldn't stand it anymore. Everyone's bad attitudes became clearer to our eyes. Like for example, a person we first thought was a nice person turns out to be a selfish, annoying person. Even I myself is also being judged by other people. Most of the time, I didn't know how to act because I am afraid I might accidentally hurt other people's feelings but no matter what i do, it is always wrong. I am going to lose myself soon, what should i do?

I feel that our group is slowly breaking apart. I didn't want this to happen. I really wish I can turn back time to last sem when we were all still so cheerful and connected. Where everybody likes everybody and there were no prejudice and dramas.

I'm REALLY looking forward to going back home this Thursday to see my family and friends again. I have been feeling pretty down lately and I really wanna cheer myself up! I MISS everyone especially Chery, Yvonne, Shu Zian, Xing Yii and Caryn. I feel like I haven't seen them in ages! I'm sure I am gonna have so much fun with them when I go back. :)

PENANG, I'M COMING!! WAIT FOR ME! :D

I'm Not Dead Yet

2010-05-02T23:31:00.012+08:00

WOW.

i can't believe it.
it's been THREE weeks since i have studied here in Sunway.
and i'm going to sit for my first Progress Test ALREADY.
can time pass any faster? o_o"

well, that aside.. i'm getting fairly used to the life here.
although i do miss home sometimes. okay, maybe A LOT, but it isn't too bad here.
because i get to make loads of new friends in class. :D
i remember during the first week, everything was awkward and all..
but now i think we're all getting to know each other better..

i hereby present to you...

...Sunway CAT Group 11!
[photo courtesy: Jasmine Kok]

and we even had a group outing in Sunway Pyramid:

[photo courtesy: Amanda Lee]

well, as you can see, the girls clearly dominate the guys. LOL
but not everyone was present for the outing la. xD
and here's a fun fact: some of my coursemates calls me Eevy, because they can't remember Ee Vern and prefers Eevy as it is shorter and easier to remember.
LOL, but i do find it weird because nobody calls me Eevy in real life.
Eevy is just a short form of my name solely for online purposes. HAHA.

but as much as i am having fun here, i can't wait to meet you all again.
few days ago, i was bored and somehow i was reading back my old entries.
LOL it was funny how i read it like it was another person's blog and not mine.
honestly, i don't even remember me writing all these stuff, but i'm glad i did.
my blog holds most of my memories.
i was really fighting back tears while reading them again.
it makes me wish i could turn back time and go back to school.
i wouldn't even mind taking SPM or Sejarah lessons all over again.
i miss my friends. T-T

Bar B Q

2010-04-20T20:50:00.008+08:00

okay, here i am again! :)
in case some of you still didn't know, i am currently studying in Sunway UC.
i took CAT.. and if you're blur, it is basically an accounting course la.

last week, Chen Ni and I moved in to our hostel called Sun-U Residence.
unfortunately, we didn't get the same room but our roommates are nice people.
so, it was all good and we get to make more friends that way! :D

i am very satisfied with my room here, and i have met most of my housemates already, except for another local girl because she seldom comes out of her room.
thankfully, they are nice to me too.. and they're all international students!!
my roommate is Indonesian Chinese and i have housemates who came from Korea, Bangladesh and China. once again, i am the junior in the house! hehehe..

last Thursday, Chen Ni and I went to Sunway Pyramid to meet up with Phaik Chern.
at first, CN and I didn't know what or where to eat..
so, we stood at the directory there for quite some time and finally we decided to eat in Fullhouse because the name and setting look nice. haha!
but the food was only so-so lar. then, PC arrived and we chatted while eating..

next, we wanted to shop for bags but, of course we didn't buy any because it was pricey..
so, we just walked round and round Sunway Pyramid. it was pretty big. O_O
after that, we went to Giant for grocery shopping. wahh, buy until so banyak!!
LOL, all of us like food deprived lidat.. but yeah, we bought so much stuff!
then obviously, after walking for the entire day, we were tired and hungry!!
hence, BarBQ Plaza it is!!

wah, so sedap k! i LOVEEEEE pork!
any meat lovers would love this place like me. hahah!
i really don't mind going there again lo. it was sooooo nice!! :D
and the price is not THAT expensive too.. NOT BAD NOT BAD!

just by looking at this picture, makes me hungry again.. o_O
I WANA EAT!!!!!!!!
okay laa, then after that.. CN went to buy some stuff and we headed home.
we sat the free shuttle bus home while PC sat taxi back..
and we had SOOO MANY STUFF, so abit paiseh also. heheheh!
and believe or not, i think i need to do another grocery shopping ade.. food running out!! heh!

well, that's all for now. i better start my revision now, or i'll never start..
so, see you guys soon!

p.s: I MISS EVERYONE IN PENANG!

Pre-Spm Results

2010-03-23T16:40:00.016+08:00

Hi there.. How are you?
I'm just gonna post up the long-forgotten pictures we took during our Pre-SPM-Results-Girls'-Night-Out. :D
Actually, we just wanted to release stress and freak out together before The Day comes, ya know? But either way, I was prepared to enjoy myself since it's very hard to meet them nowadays. So, we met up at Winter Warmers again.
Seriously, i LURVVVVV the food there. ♥

We decided not to watch movie because catching up with each other is obviously a better option. ;) Besides, it was kind of late for a movie.

But after our dinner, it wasn't too late to go up to the arcade yet! :D
Chen Ni wanted to go to Popular first to buy her folders/files/etc..
So, we tagged along...

... as I took their phailed "catwalk" photos.. LOLOLOL.

Hahaha. SO CUTE. xD
And as we went up the escalator..

I was trying really, really hard to get myself in the photo, but as you can see..
there's no ME. :(

And after about 10 tries, I finally made it! Uhhh, about 1/2 la..
Of course i beh syok lo. I wanted to be in the picture!! *merajuk* hehe..
Hence, more group photos below:

The deja-vu BLEK-photo from my birthday party.
Btw, do we look constipated? HAHAH.

The we-are-so-cute-we-can-be-lalaS photo. :D

Okay.. And lastly, we-are-normal-people photo. Hehehe..

O_O!!

2010-03-18T18:28:00.003+08:00

AHHHH I FOUND IT!!! O_O
okay la, my mum was the one who saw it first but..
OMGOMGOMG, it was SO BIG! how can i NOT see it before?? :S
remember i used to say there were a lot of bees in my house?
we finally found the source; The Grand Bee Hive. *gulp*

can you see it? can you see it? NO?

closerr.....

and even closer....

*shudders*

EDIT: good news! i dunno when or how, but the hive is no longer there. phew!

March 11

2010-03-13T23:29:00.009+08:00

OMG i should have posted this 2 days ago!
I'VE GOTTEN STRAIGHT As IN SPM!
WUHOOOOOO~!!!!!! :D

honestly, the moment before taking my results was really really intense.
i can't believe how Yvonne could be late for such an important day. =.=
well anyway, we were biting our nails down just waiting for her,
as we see more people coming out of the classroom crying with joy.
all i can think of at that point was "what if i don't do well when everyone did?"

and FINALLY when she did arrived..
XY, Chery, Yvonne and I went in the room, with our hearts pounding like mad.
we told our teacher not to tell us our results yet; we wanted to open our slips together.
and when we did....
all of us screamed like crazy! LOLOLOL.
i immediately broke down into tears of joy when i saw it.
8A+ and 2As for my Chem and Bio..
words can't describe my feeling at that time, it was just unbelievable!
it was like a gush of relief and overwhelming happiness all at the same time.
i am happy that i had achieved something which would make my parents proud. ♥
thank you, MUM and DAD.

CONGRATULATIONS to the rest who also did an awesome job! :D
CGL made it as Penang's highest scoring school this year! WUHOOO!

2010-03-11T01:45:00.006+08:00

2010-02-18T22:14:00.014+08:00

oh hai. *smile weakly*
okay, don't throw rotten vegetables at me for not updating my blog for so long.
i've FINALLY downloaded an image file converter thingy in my pc..
so now i'd still have good quality pics because my stupid photoshop died on me.
hmmpf~ who needs photoshop now? i shall use picasa instead!! :D

this is sooooo ironic.
i just came back from Hui Lynn's party and yet i'm blogging about Natasha's party instead, which was more than a month ago.. wow, talk about being SLOW. o_o
actually i've already edited these pics quite some time ago, but couldn't convert it to png.. so, it's been in my draft until now. hehe.
LOL look at the date above! it's been here since Feb 18 and it's already 5th of March!!
i almost didn't want to post them but then, WHY NOT right? so here they are! :D

(note the shirts) HOW HARD CAN IT BE ..
to wear the same tee? xD

ah-ha! yes, we bought and wore the shirts at the same time. hehe.
i haven't do that since i was so little! purposely wearing the same shirt, i mean..
it was fun somehow. but i think we look more like promoters.. -.-"

oh, in case you were wondering, we were at Gurney at that time.
trying to search for CNY clothes and stuff for Chen Ni they all..
then, i said i wanted to buy sunglasses since we were going to the beach..
ya know, with the huge YENG sunglasses and wind blowing your hair.. AISEH!

but ended up, (of course) we didn't buy any.
and my god, NO BREEZE AT ALL LA OKAY. hot dao!!!! @@
we were sweating like crazy. YENG my foot.

but okay la, at least i still get to see the beach even if i can't feel it.
and how can we NOT do the jumping photo? xP

see you soon~

Mr. Professor

2010-02-11T23:13:00.018+08:00

hi! hi! i shall once again revive my almost (again!) dead blog..
how's everyone?? i can't wait to meet up with everyone during CNY lo!!
btw, i'm taking a break from work for the whole of next week..
so, LET'S ALL GO PAI CHIA!! LET'S GOOOOOO...!!!!!! ♥

ages ago, i finally went out with my dear Caryn and Chery. xD
LOL i know i should have posted this EARLIER, but uhh..
BETTER LATE THAN NEVER! =x

OKAY everybody, meet Caryn the 101-expression laydeh!

Chery the Professor wannabe.

Ian the camera shy person...

and Eevy the uhh.. spoon sucker! o_o"

wah! it's also been ages since we last meet up. so, it's good to see them again.
Chery fetched Caryn and I over to Queens that afternoon.
this Caryn very smart lo, i tell you. she sms-ed me to get ready by 11.30..
ended up dunno what time only reach! APA LAAAA!!!
but luckily i so da fang, i forgave her.. HAHAHAHAHAHA!

once reached, we went to eat at Queen's Market..
we ordered the claypot rice and sizzling noodles which aren't good at all.
only Ian the smart one went and ordered my fave dried scallop porridge! ceh.
and Chery kept imitating this guy from college which makes me laugh like siao.. i still feel that it's funny lor! hehehehe..

after lunch, we went to watch that Jackie Chan's movie, Spy Next Door.
it wasn't great but it was pretty funny. so, i rate it 2.5/5..
the over-exaggerated Russian accent is really annoying at some point. =x
speaking of movies, I WANNA GO WATCH MORE MOVIES!
i haven't go and watch 18 + movies yet! who wants to watch with me???

okay, i also dunno why i clutched my fists until like i was damn scared.. o.O
but this is one of the nicest group pics, so i don't care la! xD
after the movie, we went shopping, which kind of failed lo..
because nobody bought anything. (as predicted)
so, we went over to J.CO to have a drink and donuts and take pictures.. LOL

and.. take more pictures and count money and return money..
and then, balik kampung!!

okay goodnight! LOLL.

Yay!

2010-02-01T22:31:00.005+08:00

I PASSED MY DRIVING TEST YO~
YAYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!

Sad Farewell

2010-01-26T22:24:00.007+08:00

we have been talking about it for a very long time ade.
and suddenly, the time passed SO FAST and the day was finally here.
our dear Amanda is leaving for Aussie ade. *cries loudly*

last Wednesday, most of us OneOhClock (except Julia and Kha Rynn) went to the airport to send her off..
luckily, her flight has changed to 9.15 at night instead of in the morning..
or else, ALL of us wouldn't be able to make it already.. thank god! :)

but the funny thing is, ALL of us reached there before she did. LOL!
her luggage exceeded the weight allowed, so she had to go back home and repack everything.
so, i thought maybe her stuff would be lesser ade lo.
mana tau still SO MANY LUGGAGE! ended up chun chun 80kg. O_O
she told us she's moving house there. lol..

by the time she reached the airport, it was almost time ade..
so, we had a very short time to say goodbye nia. D:
we only took a few pics and it was time for her to go ade.
she cried and hugged everyone of us there.
of course, i couldn't hold back and cried too.. it was so sad!! T-T

it will be a year before we get to see her again.
WE WILL MISS YOU AMANDA!! ♥

g-Spot

2010-01-24T20:56:00.008+08:00

greetings my friends! sorry for the unintentional hiatus again.
the "updating-on-a-daily-basis" thing flew out of the window ade. heheh..
how can i be so hopeless??! *geleng-geleng kepala*

now that all my precious pics are practically gone,
i should just stop sulking and take even more pictures! hah!
AND then, save a backup. just in case... xD
last Saturday we had a farewell outing for Amanda who's leaving for Aussie and a mini birthday celebration for Pauline.
i haven't seen them since.... my own birthday party!!
so, it's good seeing them again and hang out and just talk. i miss them!
too bad Julia couldn't make it.. i didn't see her for a long time ade lo! =(

we went over to Winter Warmers for dinner that day .. wah, SO DELICIOUS kay!
we sat there and chit chat for quite some time also.
i remember stealing Amanda's rose juice and straight drink it until...
Yvonne: eh, why are you drinking it? *points at the juice*
Me: aiyaah, she won't mind wan la..
Yvonne: but you're drinking it from the JUG!!
Me: uh.............. *alamak*
not entirely my fault also lo cause got straw in the jug ma! :P

as usual, i was busy taking pictures while waiting for our food to come.
here's Chen Ni with Carmen's scarf again and Zian.
and guess what? even our dear Shu Zian also puts on make up ade!!
hahah, welcome to the Ai Sui Club.. LOLLL..

*continues to camwhore until food also cold*
i damn miss this chaboh lor! i thought she went for NS sumore.. @@
XY, when can i see you?!?!?!

later, we headed over to G Hotel since Gurney Plaza is closing anyway..
then, walk walk walk.. we saw a mirror. you should know what's coming. haha.

hmm, i like this picture a lot. i wanted to take a group pic together wan..
but Carmen, Kha Rynn and Pauline somehow got "lost" behind us..
i also dunno where they went! =.=

next up, we went to G-Spot to cut Pau's cake. it was quite empty when we reached.
that waitress was waiting for us to order our drinks and what were we doing?
that's right. snapping pictures away~ i bet she's annoyed. :P
and finally, we ordered TWO glasses of mocktails so she would go away. LOL
then, we realized (obviously) 2 glasses is def not enough for all 8 of us..
so, we went and ordered more drinks. Pink Perfection is pretty nice, btw.

oh oh, the sky fall down ade! i did the peace sign instead of Yvonne!!!
after we sang the birthday song and Pauline cuts her bamboo cake,
more people came flooding in..
and yes, her cake is really made of bamboo.. nice lehh. :D
and got an angmoh singer singing jazz for us with her band. syok also..
THEN, the people there started smoking and the whole place like kena stink bomb.
so, we quickly finished our drinks and left the place.

happy birthday Pau! you're 3/4 legal ade.. hehehe..

I AM SO ANGRY!

2010-01-12T23:10:00.003+08:00

I AM SO MAD RIGHT NOW!
he charged me 470 bucks by just fixing my darn computer!!
but it's okay.. because he told me ALL my pics were saved.
then i realized some of my folders are missing..
which include MY birthday photos and ALL the other bday/hangout pics.
GAH WHAT THE HECK?!
he said he saved EVERYTHING! what is this???!
thank gods for the blog.
at least i have at least A FEW pics for remembrance. *fuming*

Quickie

2010-01-05T20:46:00.009+08:00

hehehehe.. suspense much?
okay la.. i din purposely don't want to say wan..
it's because earlier, i wasn't really sure of what am i supposed to be also..
but no, Esther. not restaurant, so can't order me around.. HEHE.. xD

i work as a part-time assistant of an assistant manager.
basically, i just do whatever she asks me to do..
paperwork, filing, scanning, sorting out datas, etc. you get the idea..
but, i didn't know working in an OFFICE could be tired. o.O
i mean, what?! i always sit in front of the comp for hours at home!
but working non-stop from 8.30 to 6 with one hour break is pretty exhausting..
so, sometimes i would curi-curi e-mail ppl to give myself a rest. xD

i work at imaxtech just behind b-suite..
oh, please come and have lunch with me!!!! :D
i really feel like going back to school now. i really do.. :(

Happy New Year 2010

2010-01-01T12:47:00.004+08:00

okay, i really wanna update on a daily basis lo..
but my stupid computer is not cooperating with me. -.-"
(and it's still rosak btw)
so, i am forced to use this old comp for now.
WHICH i don't really want to because all my stuff are in my own comp..
uhh.. you get my point, don't you? :O

well, guess what? i am going to work next Monday! :D
i know most of you are probably going for college at that time too..
so, i might as well get a job, instead of mopping around the house.
but now, I AM NERVOUS AS HECK!
i am so inexperienced, so blur and so inefficient!
what if i got fired only on the first day of work??
what if i got no friends at all??
what if i........
i tell you, these kind of 'what if' questions drive me nuts.
in short, i hope i don't screw my first job. :/

and oh, if you're wondering about my driving..
it does gets better now. no more pole knocking and lesser dead engine.
I AM STILL LOVING IT. hoho.

HAPPY NEW YEAR, EVERYONE! ♥
god bless~

First Driving Lesson

2009-12-23T14:36:00.011+08:00

haha!! i took this pic from Cherylene's car. doesn't this ducky look like her? xD!

wuhoooooooo~~
yesterday, i actually drove for the FIRST time in my entire life!!
it was tiring, confusing and EXCITING all at the same time. :D
i'm sure those of you who already got your license would understand how i feel!

but anything exhilarating comes with a price. :O
my palms hurt after turning and turning the damn steering to park the car.
then, i need to control the stupid clutch and gear.
lol, i keep letting go of my clutch too fast and the whole car died.
and just when i thought, "HEY, i am getting better at this!", i reversed too far back and knocked down a few poles.
it was embarrassing because no one else over there knock down any pole.
lol.. in the end, i knocked down the poles about 2 times and my car died about 1000000 times.
wahseh, do i suck or what? LOL.

but THANKFULLY, that was only my first time driving. :)
i guess, practice makes perfect. right?
so i am not that devastated that i am a pretty bad driver, FOR NOW. hehe.
in fact, i am actually looking forward to my next lesson!! :D!

oh btw, the duck above is totally random. xD

2009-12-22T00:03:00.006+08:00

as requested, i am going to post up my presents' pictures today.. :D

2009-12-20T23:17:00.021+08:00

AH-HA!!!!

i'm making an effort already.. can you see it? :D

AND, i am finally gonna post up the pictures today! :Dx2

this year, i organized my party at Vistana's Apartment again.
it's the same place as last year, if you remember. xD
click for more!

okay, i shall narrate as i post the pictures ya.. so, it's gonna be pretty long.
firstly, i wanna thank everyone that made my birthday a very special day indeed!
i think i had the BEST birthday i can ever wished for! so, thank you!! ♥

i was super happy because almost everyone i cared for was there to celebrate it with me and of course, to add the fact that SPM was OVER just the day before makes it even better!
AND, my parents bought me a brand new camera for my birthday present!!
(hahaha, notice the improved version of my pictures, anyone?)
if some of you didn't know, my old one has somehow got stolen. don't ask me how.
you guys should know how much i LOVE taking pics, so i was deeply touched. :)

this year, i also received a lot of birthday wishes from people through facebook and smses..
but the best birthday wish was from my brother. :D
he called me all the way from Nilai (his Uni) at midnight to wish me;
just when i thought he couldn't care less. so, it meant a lot to me.

basically, my job on that day was to bring everyone up and down.. hah!
i think Caryn followed me almost everytime i had to go down. thanks, babe!
oh ya, and i am also glad that both Caryn and Wyuen can make it this time.
BECAUSE every year they'd be in China and Singapore!! :P

and at one point, the dining table freaking CRACKED again.
last year, my dad HAD to pay a few hundreds for the cracked table.. =.=
when it happened again, i'm beginning to think if the table have problem in the first place..
for fear the Vistana ppl will come and check when my dad reported the case,
all of us had to uhh, "hide" at the swimming pool area LOLLOLOLL!!
cos we're not supposed to have SO MANY ppl in the house. HOHO.
BUT ended up nobody came to check.. HAHA. PAISEH AH!! =x

by the time we got up, we were starving like crazy!
hence, the eating feast BEGUN! wahahahahahahahahaha..
i was so busy i hardly eaten anything. but it didn't matter!
so happy until stomach also full ade. LOLL.
did anyone of you tried the chicken curry? my mum cooked wan!!
hahaha, she don't dare to say cos later if not nice........ :D

for the entire day, we were all gossiping in the room..
laugh out loud like nobody's business and talk about school and people..
it was FUN FUN FUN and extremely entertaining! xD
to think we might not do this again after that day saddens me a little..
seriously, i think we NEED to keep in touch no matter what lo!!

at night, when almost everyone left.. only left a few of us who stayed over.
i was pretty upset at 2 something in the morning when i received an sms from a person saying that she couldn't come. i mean, she could have mention it earlier if she couldn't make it!
ahh, that kinda spoil my mood a little while.. BUT!
the night was SUPER FUN as well!!! :D
Xing Yii literally went nuts with her energy and stunts. LMAO!
omg, her lion dance with Julia makes me laugh like crazy! HAHAHA!
we took like a zillion videos and did ALOT of stupid stuff.. omgg. FUN!!
i will post the videos when i have the time. :D

ah, finally! i want to say i really, really enjoyed myself on my birthday..
i hope all of you enjoy yourself as much as i did. :D
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING! especially to my parents and y'all.
i LOVE all of you!!! ♥

omg, i make it sound like i won a Grammy or something. =x
but you get my point la har.. heheheh..
lastly, can you spot CHARCO in the pics above? HAHA!

A Movie To Remember

2009-10-21T23:31:00.007+08:00

i fall in love with this movie all over again~!

i watched this movie a while back but totally forgotten about it for some time..
until yesterday, i happened to listen to its soundtrack,
and it reminds me of how amazing this movie is.. ♥♥♥♥

LANDON CARTER = sweetest guy ever!
i have a feeling i'm watching this movie again. hoho.

Hello.

2009-10-19T13:10:00.020+08:00

oh, don't mind this picture; i just feel like posting it up today.
i guess i am missing sleepovers. hah!

anyway, i have pretty much nothing interesting going on lately.
but in these couple of days, i realized that:
1. i am addicted with facebook videos/photos/anything related to fb.
2. i suck in sudoku. :(
3. mosquitoes love me more than i can ever imagine.
4. xdo hates me.
5. spm is in just T-H-I-R-T-Y-D-A-Y-S. [???!!]
and oh,
6. i haven't touch my karangan yet.

i'm also wondering if Caryn will ever reach my house (she's taking forever),
because we are going to watch The ORPHAN together. :)
oh, WHAT DID I JUST SAY ABOUT SPM?!?!

Prom Night Folder One.

2009-10-06T23:27:00.048+08:00

Final Destination 4 Review

2009-09-04T23:53:00.030+08:00

YES! it was 3rd of September~
and i was all jumpy and excited about the release of Final Destination 4!
i bet most of you are just like me. *winks*

well then, i could not wait for another day to watch this,
because i just HAD to watch it on that day itself.
you have no idea how much i LOVE Final Destination series but..... still, that does NOT make me a sadist, Esther! :P

so, i went (sneaked in, actually) into the cinema with such HIGH expectations, hoping to jump off my seat in excitement or something.
and that was EXACTLY what did not happened.

i mean, it wasn't entirely a disaster. no, no.. it's not like that at all.
but i can say, it's the LEAST uhh, nicest compared to the rest.
of course, it was freakin KIN CHEONG at some point that i was really at the edge of my seat; me likey that part! :D
AND i also like the casts; the guy is cute and the girl is so pretty! :D
but like i said, it somehow did not reach the standard i was hoping for.
maybe too much of Final Destinations pull down the quality of the movie?
or maybe, it was just because i watched it in 2D.

anyway, if i have to rate, i'll give it 6.5/10.
and my advice is, if you really HAVE TO watch the movie like me,
you HAVE TO watch it in 3D so you can see the FULL effects!
then, tell me your review on the movie in 3D!

Bees..!!

2009-08-14T22:20:00.016+08:00

one week down! another week to go; can't wait!!
well, just so you know, i am also sick.
i've been sick since the beginning of the week, actually..
yeah, talk about bad timing. -.-"

but ANYWAY, i'm not here to talk about exams or my terrible sickness.
no, i'm here to COMPLAIN about the..
INVASION OF FREAKING BEES IN MY HOUSE!!!
in case you didn't know the fact that bees are actually attracted to light, i am telling you now.
i have 30 bees flying around my fluorescent light EVERY MORNING to prove it.

you guys probably thought i was exaggerating,
but ah-ha! i took some pictures on one particular morning to show y'all..
THE EVILNESS OF THE "LIGHT" BEES! o.o

they're bees; not flies! [ i know how to differentiate la, ok?]

or, an even closer shot for you all to see properly..

there must be a bee hive somewhere nearby.. CONFIRMED!
they disappear, though, when the sun rises.
they don't even come at night; just MORNING.
so, what now? they sleep at night? -.-''

KL Trip

2009-08-07T15:16:00.016+08:00

i'm back! i'm back!
for now.

you must be wondering..
why the heck did i go KL just one week before trials?
basically, my parents wanna go see my brother;
but i wanna go because i don't want to miss out the fun. ;)
and i was right. it was fun!

a lot of stuff happened during our stay in KL.
like, i saw a drunken man outside my aunt's house trying to get into his house, but couldn't open the door himself because he was too drunk.
sometimes, my aunt said, he will be so drunk that he peed outside the lift. o.o? gross.

and, how my dad forgot to off the engine and the car was locked from the inside. our stuff were all still in the boot.
it was quite embarrassing because i was wearing a dress with slippers on. LOL.

or, the anti-ISA street demonstration which caused major traffic jam.
poor drivers, they were stuck there for quite some time.

and, how i'd FINALLY bought my prom dress in Mid Valley,
after walking for hours searching for it.
it's a very simple dress. lol, black is the only thing i could describe it.
now, i don't have to worry about the prom dress issue anymore.
GREAT! :D

next, we went to listen to my brother's presentation in MoneyTree.
MoneyTree is like an organization where they train people to become successful entrepreneurs.
on that day, investors were present as well. they will listen to the groups' presentations.. and then, decide whether to invest in their business or not.
watching all of them bombarding questions to the participants was scary.
imagine if i was one of the speaker on that day... o__0
FAILED.

anyway, i also found out some of the weirdest thing in KL.
like, how a toilet seat ended up in the middle of the road?

Exam's Next Week!!!!!

Chaoz!

2009-07-30T19:17:00.003+08:00

off to KL tonight.
miss me! :D

2 Weeks Left!

2009-07-26T22:52:00.010+08:00

This is why they rock

2009-07-23T20:55:00.002+08:00

OMG, this is EPIC! :D

Thank you, Dad (by Bro)

2009-07-18T23:50:00.010+08:00

i was just browsing through when i came upon my brother's latest post in his blog. as much as i used to hate him, he has always been the person i wanted to be. this post has really touched my heart. truth to be told, i did cry a little while reading this. ;)

I finally decided to start with the first person that i would like to thank. Michael Tan Buat Yeng. Sounds familiar? Yes, he is my father. I'd like to thank him for he had allow me to grow and try new things. Within certain boundaries of course. I would say that when I was young, he was the discipline master in the house. He always kept me in the safe house. I was an introvert and was a nerd until primary 6. Well, he did a great job! I scored straight As in my UPSR.

Because of his strict personality, I didn't really communicate much with him. All I know is, if things were to go to him, it's serious things. For example, to get his signature to go for trips (which he rejected all of them), mom's complains, etc. etc. I viewed him as a strict and scary person. In a nice word, he's calm and cool most of the time. While my mom usually shouts and yell and nagged me all the time which non of that actually works on me, my dad has his secret weapon which is his stare. He'll just need to look and everything will be fine, or he'll make it fine.

It was not until secondary that I'm actively involved in co-curricular activities which includes counter-strike, half-life. He was a bit leanient that time. But his stares still works. That's the downfall of the great nerd. Results were not good and getting worse and worse from time to time. That's where he came in but it's too late. The virus was too strong. He then came up with new weapon, which is called 'lecture' by most of my peers. When ever he uses it, it'd be for hours and it'll be the same thing over and over again.

He told me that he wasn't expecting excellent result from me but just something that is not bad. He later found out that I was not really good in academic and allowed me to be active in school. That has built courage in me to be able to explore and try new things. I took up several leadership role in clubs and societies after that. Which then he became my mentor. He'd constantly remind me to study! hahahaha. He supported me morally and financially (up until now) as well.

That was just co-curricular activities in school levels. It was after form 5 that I started to involve in more activities and stuffs outside of schools. I was cheated a few times and loss some money. He knew that was going to happen but he didn't stop me. He allowed me to experience it myself. He told me even if he tried to stop me, I would not have stop either. Instead of getting more of his 'lecture', I felt like he's became a friend to me. A friend that will always be there for me. and ACCEPT ME IN ANY CONDITION. This is when I felt the change in him, or it was the REAL him! He talked to me, help me, lend his ear to me whenever I faced problems or failures in whatever that I do. He never once scolded me for waste of time or not listening to him but always offer advice and guide me out of the problems and create a pathway for me to start all over again. Eventhough we never said " I love U" (cos we both think its disgusting) to each other, we both know that we love each other.

He never really told me about his background. By seeing that he's the only one out of his 5 siblings that is in Penang Island, I guessed that he must have left home to challenge himself or to explore new possibilities. I can see that when he's young he's always strived to learn new things. And I believe, the one thing that stops all his risk taking attitude is ME. With me, he has to learn how to be a father. He has to find a stable job to feed his family. He could not take any risk to loose his job anymore. I believe that I am the reason he has been working in the same company for over 20 years now.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not blaming myself or being emo about it (hahahaha) because if it was me, I would do the same thing. Just that I understand the sacrifice that he had made for me. Now, we're more like friends than father and son. Mom always complains why I dont call him 'PAPA' anymore. But he also dont call me 'Chun Sian' anymore. We call each other 'ey', 'oi'. He'd also introduce his colleagues to me. Asked me out for lunch. We talked, we laughed, we gossiped (less) and I'm really grateful to have him as my father. He is the ideal father to have. And i also found out that he's not that cool actually, he's just as crazy as me! I would rephrase that, I'm just as crazy as HIM! hahahaha. But with all that craziness, both of us have the seriousness in us. We have also session called sharing session! Right now, there's no longer 'lecture' where he talk i listen, now is more to a discussion where we share our ideas and opinions openly.

For all that he has done, does, and will always does for me, I am grateful and would like to say a million THANK YOU! You are a great person, great father and a great friend to me! I'll always look up to you!

frankly, i'm not as close as he is with my dad. in fact, i pretty much couldn't stand him at times. but after reading this post, it makes me realize how i've ONLY see the bad side of him; totally ignoring the fact he is always there with us through good times and bad times. it is undeniable i'm much closer to my mum and releasing most of my heat to my dad, but for that, i'm sorry.
and to my brother, thank you for writing this. it means alot to us.
♥

What the?!

2009-07-10T16:07:00.021+08:00

i was really thinking,
"NOOOOO! this is NOT happening!"

when i heard from my History teacher that the trials were brought forward,
i thought, 'nahh, it's just some kind of rumour to scare us off..'
of course, i should have known better. she's our DISCIPLINE teacher!
i guess i still have this tiny weeny hope that it was NOT true.

BUT!
later, Pn. Lim Li Li came in my class and announced that,
the dates for our trials have indeed been brought forward a month earlier than what we were expecting, which also mean.. AUG 10: DOOMSDAY.
i was pretty much "OH SHIT"-ing the whole way.. @@
so basically, we have exactly ONE month before sitting for the exam.
omg, ONE MONTH?!?! this is insane.
how are we going to study EVERYTHING in 30 days?? jkdslghfljkhb.

KILL ME.

fortunately, today wasn't entirely a MAJOR disaster; we had Singing Competition.
i didn't know we have so many talented singers in our school. :D
i truly admire their courage to sing on stage, in front of so many people!
good job, everyone! and congrats to all the winners!

both Xing Yii and Edith did great too, CONGRATS on getting third place! ♥
and of course, congratulations to Jolene, Min Yan and Poh Ean.
they got first for group's category!! :D:D:D
