Life's Dark Roads

To be misunderstood?

Hey all! I know it's been a while since I blogged. I actually have a post in the making based on a previous event but that will have to wait.
LONG POST AHEAD

So today I went back to volunteer at the Community Centre and the two kids I was talking about were also there today.
I'm gonna replace names now because I don't really want to name names but if you read the other post, you can work it out.

The day consisted of Movie Trivia, Party Games, Outdoor Games and a Scavenger Hunt and after Lunch we went to the cinema to watch a movie.
I was put in Group 1 with C and J because I apparently was good with J one of days in the last program so I spent half the day with them. I expected them to be there today but this time Mikayla, who is really good with the both of them, was also in the group so it really wasn't bad at all.

So anyway, The day went along pretty good with C being just a little disruptive in the Movie Trivia and J being amazing the whole day through.
Things started going a little pear-shaped when we went for the movies though.

Before I talk about that, I just wanna say, it is NOT easy bringing kids to go watch a movie. The kids were allowed to choose their own movie from the choices
The Smurfs
Spy Kids 4
The Zookeeper

We had 45 kids in total. 4 signed up for Zookeeper, 13 for Spy Kids and 28 for Smurfs.
I got put into the group watching Smurfs which was fine by me because I was expecting to see that today anyway. ahaha
Anyway, we each got assigned to a few kids and were responsible for them. I had 5 in mine. When we got to the cinemas, I we were a little confused because the kids had money for snacks and we weren't sure how to go about letting them do that. So imagine just like 45 kids around the cinema with us going... WHAT ARE WE DOING NOW?!
But we got that sorted out quite quickly and went in to get seats and whatnot. From there it was a bit smoother and we just enjoyed the movie. The kids watching the Smurfs did anyway. From what I heard, the other movies were alright too

P/S The Smurfs is a pretty okay film. Don't have high expectations of it and it turns out decent. Definitely a good kids' move though

So anyway, back to where things went pear shaped. The kids watching Spy Kids 4 finished earlier than us to they had some time to kill after. C decided that it would be a good time to pull a runner and ran off away from their group. Emma managed to grab hold of him with him resisting a fair bit. Sam (Another leader) stepped in to help but ended up getting bitten and kicked by C. We were still in the movies when this happened so hearing all this when we came out made me go... Woah... Calm down.

Anyway, when we boarded the bus, I was going to sit in front of Kayla and Jarrod (My friends) only to find that one of the seat were taken by C. I asked if it was okay to sit next to him and I got a really angry NO. Didn't want to try further.

A girl then passed by that empty seat and was told to sit there so she did. C obviously did NOT like that this proceeded:

C: "You're not sitting here"
Girl: "I was told to sit here"
C: "NO" *Pulls down on the girl's bag's strap*

This obviously called for an intervention. I tried to pry his hands loose from the strap while Jarrod helped. You would not believe how strong that kids is. It is ridiculous. Anyway, we got that sorted out and calmed him down a tad bit. Left him alone there till we got back.

When we arrived, Jarrod gave him C a gentle poke on the arm and that seem to have aggravated him a fair bit. He actually lashed out at Jarrod and tried to hit him. I intervened and almost got a punch to the face. He stopped after a short while and proceeded to get off the bus. It was something I was NOT expecting. Earlier in the day, during the outdoor games, I actually had a pretty good 10 minute-ish chat with him. Granted it may have been because I was giving him a piggyback ride but it was just so different comparing those two situations together.

When his mum arrived, she got told what happened today and all of us that actually experienced the things he did were asked to go into the office with C, his mum and the centre's supervisor (Manager?)
He proceeded to get told off for what he did and his mum made him apologize to all of us before sending him out to the other room to wait.
His mum also told us a bit about how C was like in school and the things she did for him. After that, they left and the leaders had a debriefing of the day's events and apparently C has NEVER been so angry and bad before. He was always cheeky but never raging. We sorta just talked about his situation for a few minutes.

It was that point that got me thinking...
How difficult it must be for the parents AND the kids to have to experience something like that.
I actually have no idea parents cope with it. They try to do SO much to help their child and it doesn't always work out. When C's mum was talking, I could tell that she was feeling very upset about the whole thing but she was upset because she cared. She cared for her son and really wanted the best for him.

And for the kid. It must be just as bad if not worse. This might not be valid because we don't know to what extent he would feel it but if it was me, I'd definitely feel really bad. Anyway, all the following is just speculation but it really was food for thought for me.

Because he is known to be a bit of a troublemaker, not many kids actually go up and talk to him. Those who do don't spend that much time with him. The leaders also just let him do his own thing so he doesn't get much attention from us. Well, Mikayla talks to him really well sometimes and the rest of us pretty much just try to get him to join the different activities.
We were saying during the debriefing that his raging today might have been because his brother is able to make friends and make conversation quite easily so he could have been jealous and thought how unfair it was?

What are the odds that he is being a troublemaker to get attention? Maybe if we spoke to him more things could be better?
The issue with that though is that I have actually tried making conversation with him. It's not easy. It is actually pretty difficult to get his attention. Maybe I wasn't trying hard enough and gave up too soon? After today, I know it IS possible to have a good conversation with him.
It's probably not easy for him to grasp why things are the way it is. He might be doing everything he thinks is right but we think is wrong. I dunno. Things like that are just so complicated.
HUMAN BRAIN Y U NO EASIER TO UNDERSTAND?!

Maybe I am thinking it through too much. Listening to C's mum's story and thinking about the whole thing from C's perspective really just made me think a fair bit.
I don't know about you guys, but I constantly complain about there being so much homework or there are so many things to do but I guess I never actually realise that there are people who face MUCH bigger problems in life.

I really would like to replay today and see how things would have developed if I tried harder with communicating with C. He was supposed to go on the trip next Friday to Philip Island with the centre but after today, he can't go for that anymore. (Actually, even I am not confirmed to be going because not many kids signed up for that. I really want to go though!)

I can't really find other opportunities to talk to C because I am not helping out any other days this holidays due to exams and the next holidays I will be in Malaysia so I won't be there either.
Sorry for the really really long and wordy post but I felt like I really had to share those thoughts with you guys.
Never have I thought that I would be thinking about things like that. I knew before that I wanted to do volunteer work but these 2 brothers and my experiences at the Centre have really made me think to work with children when I have the time.

I really want to see if I can be a friend to kids like that but I don't think I have the training or time to attempt something like that now. It's definitely something that I will add to my To-Do list for the future. I have no idea how I would start something like that off but with a bit of research I think it would be fine.
I'll have lots of time to think of things to do with this topic after exams. Even if I don't end up using it, I think learning about things like that can really improve a person's character.
Well, right now I just need to focus on doing my exams so that's that.
Such an insightful day this has been...

Fun filled!

2011-08-01T17:09:00.003+08:00

Right... So I haven't been blogging much.
Maybe it's because of the expectations I have on a blogpost.
I try to make it deep/meaningful or filled with fun content to read.
Probably should just post something every so often. ahaha

Also, with the 365/2, it's pretty dead. I have what I need to post for each day I am missing and I have taken photos each day but just been WAY too lazy to upload them. BAD!

But anyway, this month is gonna be pretty exciting.
I have got:

A free breakfast to attend
Starting a job
2 parties to attend-Which clash with my job nights :(
Results for mid year government exams coming out on the 8th
Rotary dinner on the 16th
School council on the 23rd
University applications to complete
A speech to deliver to the Governor, teachers and International students from across the state.

I haven't even written up a speech for that last thing yet. In fact, I don't even know what I am going to talk about.

And to add on to that, I got lots and lots of tests and work scattered throughout the month. I only do 4 subjects this year compared to the usual 5 that people do and I still seem like I don't have enough time D:
WHY DOES TIME PASS SO FAST?!

Or maybe just plain..WHY AM I SO LAZY?!
I'm on top of my work but I could be SO much more productive if I wasn't this bad.
Well, I should probably get to work then. Stupid consistency thing. If it only there weren't silly assignments and SACs littered all over the place...
I actually cannot wait till I am done this year.

My plan is actually going to be Work for monehs, do some volunteer work and spend the rest of my time playing video games 8D
I just help my cousins set up their Band Hero on the Wii and I suck at it. Determined to be able to play it by the end of this year. ahahah

This was taken some time back but the sky was pretty :D

Adios amigos!

YOU MEDDLING KIDS!!!! shakes fist

2011-07-05T18:28:00.006+08:00

As bad as the title is, the kids I worked with today were an overall good bunch.
There's a holiday program going on for kids at the community centre and they needed volunteers to help look after the kids because they can't afford to actually hire so many people. It's the holidays so I thought why not. All I would do is just procrastinate my work anyway so why not do something different.

It's funny how I love working with kids in situations like this but can't stand some of them during other times. It was a very fun day though. No doubt about that.

Got to the community centre at 8.15 am but we were supposed to meet at 8.30. The bus times didn't fit out right but what was 15 minutes wait anyway.
Usually it would have been fine but it was bitterly cold this morning and standing outside waiting was no fun at all. My friend Tim came a bit after and two other volunteers Alyssa and Jon arrived after him. The person in charge of the day, Lindy, arrived about 8.30 and we got to wait in the warmth. Emma (Another helper) showed up shortly after.

Both Tim and I got our hands on a reasonably warm vest with the words "Leader" on the back and it was a pretty good vest too. All the volunteers were leaders but there weren't enough vests to go around for Alyssa and my other friend, Jarrod who came late. We got briefed on what we were doing for the day and that a kid with Asperger's was coming today. They told us how to handle him and that his little brother did not have Asperger's even though he acts like he does because he mimics his brother. Parents started to drop their kids off early. They were supposed to be there between 9-9.30 but they started coming around 8.45

Brought them into the indoor basketball court/hall and they played with the balls for a bit while the 4 of us awkwardly stand around looking at how the other 3 leaders interacted with the kids.
Pass a few balls to a few kids and tried to make conversation but they were not liking the new guy. hahaha
When all the kids were accounted for, the 4 of us were properly introduced and we went out to run around a bit while waiting for the people to set up the orienteering course. Out on the field, I managed to talk to a few kids and they actually responded. HUZZAH! heh
After a few round of "Ice and Water" (Different name here), we headed back inside in pairs and this kid, Flinn, comes up to me and chose me. Was a cute moment, was all like "I want you to be my partner!" Had a little chat with him on the way in and then they sat down to wait for the orienteering to start.

While waiting, we played a game to see if the kids could guess the leaders' favourite food. When it came to me, they were all like "RICE!" "SUSHI!" "NOODLES!" "JAPANESE FOOD!" "VIETNAMESE FOOD!"
In my mind I was going.. Seriously?! SERIOUSLY?! But of course we had to play nice so I just went "hahah.. no etc"
I thought I would keep it simple and chose "Chocolate" but no one got it. Which was weird seeing as it came out so many times for the other leaders. Darn stereotyping!

Anyway, we started with the first activity and the younger kids were sent off to make a paper compass while the older kids stayed with Alyssa, Emma and I. There was a giant compass made in the hall with cones that signify a point on the compass and the kids had to run to that point when one of us yelled it out. The first time round it was alright but then we had to play it again a second time while waiting for the younger kids and you can tell they were bored.

We had to repeat the whole game with the younger kids who came in from their other session. Only this time the 4 of us newbies had to run it ourselves as Emma had to go off somewhere. It wasn't too bad except for this kid...

Jesse (He had a pretty cool hairstyle for a freaking 5 year old). The kid with the brother (Cody) who unfortunately had Asperger's. He actually made me chase him around the entire hall while he runs off with the cones. This kid can run. Caught him eventually with him squirming all over the place and Jarrod put him in the naughty corner where he actually just sat there. No running around. Of course, Jarrod did threaten him by saying he would call Jon over (Who is really good at dealing with this kid)
I was talking with Jarrod about Jesse at the end of the day and because we might see him another 2 more times next week, we are going to try to "drill" some discipline/sense into him. hahahaha

Anyway, the session went alright and we only had to do it once because the older kids came back quite quickly since they were only looking at how to use a compass. Right after that they were split into groups and sent off to find clues hidden around the community centre. UTTER. CHAOS.
If someone were to walk in at that time, they would be so freaked out by the kids running all over the place. We leaders had to make sure they weren't going into places out of bounds or being silly so there was a bit of movement involved for us too. Jesse and his brother came up with a bit of mischief by ripping a sign or two out but we were there to save the day! (SO LAME!)

Ahem... The hunt was quickly finished and we moved on to snack/free time while the kids just played random stuff. Went to a few different kids and spoke to them about the last activity and then moved on to the science experiments. There were 5 different ones:
Optical illusion- Looking at different optical illusions and talking about it

Tea Rocket and Expanding toothpicks- Not sure about this but it resulted in the column of paper with the tea leaves burning down to nothing then rises to the top and the toothpicks were bent in a way that made it expand to look like a star when water was added.

Slime- Making slime with PVA glue and stuff

Sealed bag (or something like that)- Fill a zip lock bag with water and see how many skewers you can poke through without water dripping out from the holes

Some water+spring thing- Not sure with this but the thing bounces up cause of the spring.

I got stuck with the boring optical illusions. It was hard getting the kids to focus on what was in the optical illusions. So just did a quick 5 minute session with them and let them trace/draw/create their own optical illusion. Wasn't very science-y in my opinion but it was over quite quickly. They were rotating in groups so we didn't have to worry about too many kids at once. We then moved back to the hall to wait for lunch to be served.
Jesse fell over at around this time and was sorta just being sad and depressed by himself in a corner so I went over to ask him what happened and apparently someone pushed him down by accident. You can tell he wasn't feeling happy or particularly good because he was quiet and actually wanted a hug from someone. It was weird to see a kid like him get so down like that. Lunch was served and he was well on his feet again and ran towards the line. That kid. hahaha

We had lunch (Hot dogs!) and then just sorta sat around for a bit. Talked to a few more kids with some bumping into things and hurting themselves. Played "I Spy" with Olsen before getting called to assemble for the last activity.
The last activity is "Crafty Afternoon" where they basically just make heaps of stuff. As you all may know, I am not flash with my art skills so this afternoon was like LOLWHAT?! for me. I tried nonetheless :P

They split into three groups where 1 large group went to do "Enviro-blocks" which was making stuff with those stuffings you find in packaging but coloured. It was made of corn starch apparently. Pretty interesting. I got asked to help run it with Alyssa (She is a Graphics Uni student). Found myself helping this kid who had hearing difficulties, Bailey. He was a great guy. He cut himself with the plastic knife (Which was surprisingly sharp) and did not complain one bit. Just put a bandaid on and moved on. I helped him cut everything else after that though. No more knife for him!
Jesse was working on the same table as well and he was actually behaving like an angel. Apparently he really loved Arts and Craft so he was really into it. His brother however was not that engaged so instead of letting him disrupt everyone, Lindy set him in her office and let him play with her iPhone.
I was pretty much helping with Bailey's table while Alyssa managed 3 other tables. To be fair, it was her strong point and majority of the kids in the room didn't need help.

After a bit, the kids who did Enviro-blocks were allowed to go do Arts and Craft or make a heat pack. While the other two group went into Enviro-Blocks. Tim came to help Alyssa so I moved on to the Arts and Craft room. Helped Bailey again along with a few other kids. It's surprising how much I could help out with even though I suck in the Arts department. Heh
A kid, Keira, made one of these for each of the leaders which I think was really sweet. :D

After a while, I just started wandering from room to room to see how things were. The kids were basically just moving about from room to room as well so it was alright. Folded stars during my "patrol" and gave it to kids who passed by. hahaha

The kids then gathered in the Main Hall while we just cleaned the rooms up and organised things. Parents came to pick up their child and that was that. I think I made some new friends today! WOOOO :D

All in all, a wonderful experience. Do not regret volunteering for this at all and looking forward to my other one more, possibly two, volunteer day(s) next week.
A day well spent indeed.
Thanks for reading! hahaha

Till the next post. Cya!

I am so in love with this cover. Her other songs are amazing too.
Destorm is pretty good as well

I find myself listening to people on YouTube more than mainstream singers these days. I do listen to mainstream songs as well but the singers on YouTube just sound so much better. Especially those without gimicky Autotune and when it IS used, it just feels right.

Another song I have been smashing replay is this one

I love the chorus.

Okay.. My little "fangirly" episode about songs on YouTube is over.
Back to chemistry.

As a side note, there are just THAT many more people on my "Must meet" list. hahaha

'Tis OVER!

2011-06-16T13:13:00.002+08:00

Hey all! Sorry for that emo post back then. I always have to go through this emo stage before I finally see the light.

It's always darkest before dawn yea? :P

So I'm a bit freer now. Mid years are over and I've got a bit of time to relax now before my onslaught of studies and assignments start next week and during the holidays.
In the absence, nothing particularly interesting happened but I guess I can bore everyone with the details anyway.

Last Saturday I was asked to go help out at a store and teach little kids (and some adults hahah) how to play the Pokemon card game. It was a good day. Got tons of freebies and paid somewhat. Now I;ve been asked to go back every second Saturday if I can to help out more. So it's like a semi-job. In the sense that I am actually putting out effort to get something in return (Sadly not in the form of cash) and I can go in whenever I want (Probably once a month)

I might not be getting paid much (or even at all) but at least it's some experience interacting with people and it can go into my resume for customer service! hahaha
And it's a fun way to burn Saturdays away. Of course, with schoolwork being a pain it might not work out if I go every second Saturday but once a month sounds reasonable. I mean it's like from 12-4.30 so I need to leave my house around 10.45 to get to the city and get back around 6. So that's 7 hours of a whole month gone but hey, I was a good kid the last time I went and brought work to do on the train so I think it's alright. heh

As I said earlier, I had exams this week. Just Bio and Chem so it wasn't too bad. The way they ask questions are completely different to Malaysia though. Instead of just testing you on how much you know, they test you to see if you can apply the knowledge as well. Tricky.
I bombed my Chemistry Multiple Choice section quite badly but hopefully the Short Answer Section will help me scrape through an A at least (Although I want an A+ quite badly but I'll settle for an A)

With Bio, it was indifferent. I did like 5 practice exams the day before and managed to get A+ for all of the which gave me a much needed confidence boost for bio. Managed to complete the exam but the questions asked were very weird and it didn't feel like anything I have done before.

Not settling for anything under A+ for Bio though. It needs to be my strong subject seeing as I want to do something Bio related for Uni (Either Biotech or Microbiology cause the recent work we did on the immune system was rather interesting.. and somewhat easy to understand hahaha)

Anyway, the day before the Bio exam the Assistant Principle called me and asked me to do a tour for some International student Agents and sell the school basically. She said because I was an International Student and the School Captain it would leave a good image and this that and everything else.
So I did the tour and stuff and was rewarded by a pretty good lunch full of omnom desserts.
I should start working for cash rather than all these other benefits :P

I'm probably thinking ahead of myself but I cannot wait for this year to be over because:
1) Get to go to Uni next year! I need to move on. Enough schooling for me :|

2) Probably look for a part time job to earn some cash to spend in Malaysia or save up for next year. Considering how good the exchange rate is.. 1 hour's work could get me like RM 32. CHA CHING!

3) I GET TO GO BACK TO MALAYSIA!!! Cannot wait to see everyone again.

4) Because I only get to work 20 hours a week here due to visa clauses, I was thinking of finding some volunteer program and experience something different. Since I would have so much time on my hands, why not use it to help some other people out?

So yea.. Completely pumped for 17th November. The last day of my exams. Sucks that it's at 3pm though and it's English. I have to wait all the way till 5.15pm till I can be totally free. Sigh...

But that's for the future, gotta focus on the task at hand now. Should probably go do some Maths for my test next week but me no like it anymore :(
Meh.. I'll do it later.

NB: I will do it though. I have to and want to because I need to score good marks for this test. Got only 55% the last one and I need to boost my average up.
On the plus side... 28/30 for an English Folio that I despised doing and kept putting it off. AWWWYEA!

Till the next post

Dilemmas

2011-06-11T21:50:00.002+08:00

You know that feeling when you really want to vent to someone but you don't know who to turn to?
Or when you feel like you can open to someone and share things with you and they react the complete opposite to what you were thinking?

What if they were right? It's my life though right? I should be able to decide how I live it? But then what if the other option was the "better" one? What do you do then? Even if you enjoyed doing what you did.

Decisions and life are so confusing.

Makes things so difficult sometimes.

But maybe that's just me and I am just too weighed down from all the little things and they just added up and affected my view on life- Being very mindful of what other people say just cause I'm afraid I would mess up and not choose the "right" decision because I want to do the other one.

Of Camp Shenanigans

2011-03-18T14:17:00.010+08:00

Got back from Year 12 Camp about 2.5 hours ago.
It was amazing. So much happened with an amazing group of people and lots of fun.
The weather was brilliant. Not too cold but not too hot. No rain and very fresh!
I'm gonna go day by day of everything that happened so yes. This will be a long post.
Photos will have to wait till I can get it off teachers and some people.
I will edit this post or make a new one with pictures once I get them

DAY 1 (16/03/2011)
Got to school around 8.15 am. We were supposed to be there by 8 but we were only leaving at 8.30 so it wasn't that big of an issue.
Met up with some people, looked around at how much people were bringing for a 3 day camp and got our names marked off. The buses were late so we didn't actually leave until a bit past 9.

The ride there was alright. Talked a bit, played the iPhone a bit, enjoyed the scenery and we were there. It wasn't that long. The place looks amazing. It's a pretty hilly place surrounded by trees and obstacle courses/facilities all over the place. Got our stuff off the bus and waited around till we got sorted out into our tents/cabins. Cabins had like 12-16 people in theme while tents have 6. The tents are all lined up together and it's like a nice community/get together place outside with a building with a mini kitchen and TV so that's pretty cool. I got a tent with 5 other people cause cabins were filled up pretty quickly. There weren't enough tents so they had to put some small ones up at a place away from the other tents.

After getting organised, we went to the lodge where we meet up and have meals and whatnot. Listened to a bit of an intro and a bit about setting goals.
The guy we had was pretty funny but got a bit long winded in the end. He went on about "shopping" and how we bleed time etc. It would make more sense if you heard it.
Then we were split into 2 groups. Half of us had to stay back and fill out forms for Year 12 while the other half went for Orienteering then we swap spots. I got to do the Orienteering first which was good cause we were sitting down for so long running around was really good. Went with Nicole, Bridgit and Tiffany and what a funny team it was. We were given a map that was marked with different sites where we had to go there and find this stamper thing which was cleverly hidden.
For a few of the stampers, we had to run into the forest areas and because Nicole was the good one with maps, she led the way. We soon found out she wasn't THAT good cause she made us go the bike track way, up hills and slopes instead of the nirmal trekking path. Durr
We didn't have time to find all of them but we got 10/12 so i think that's pretty decent. After that we had to fill up the forms and then we had time to chill before dinner.

Dinner was surprisingly really good. LASAGNA AND GARLIC BREAD!Cheesecake for dessert. And we were allowed seconds! hahaha
Anyway after dinner, my group (Group 2) was on duty for clean up. The others had like 30-40 minutes free time while we had to do the dishes and wipe down the tables. It was actually really fun doing them. We had to first rinse out the dishes and bowls then stack them along with cups, jugs and cutlery onto these trays to put in the dishwasher. Then dry it and put it back to where they were found. We divided the job really quickly and pumped up some music and it was just fun. We did around 150 of each dishes, bowls, cutlery and cups altogether and it didn't take us that long.

About 5-10 minutes after we finished the dishes we went straight into the next activity. Trivia night. It was pretty good. Just tested general knowledge, some showbiz stuff and guessing the names of teachers whose pictures were edited horrendously. hahaha
There were 5 rounds and 3 bonus rounds which took us till about 9.30pm. Before we left we were told to look out for some car keys because a teacher has lost them. We went back to our tents/cabins and chilled a bit till 11 or so then it was lights out. We had to bring sleeping bags even though the tents/cabins (The big tents anyway) had mattresses cause there were no blankets. We were also supposed to bring a pillow but I couldn't be bothered since it was 2 nights and lugging a pillow is 'meh' so I just slept on my jacket. I didn't actually get to sleep until around 12.40 or so cause the people in the other tent were noisy.
Did I mention we had teachers around out area too? haha

DAY 2 (17/03/2011)
This day was just FILLED with stuff happening.
So I woke up at about 6.45 am to go jogging. Mr VP (PE teacher) organised morning jogs for his two PE classes to demonstrate a few things and those not in the classes were welcome to join in. Met up with Nicole half way there and then walked with the whole group to the entrance of the camp. The reason? There is this cemetery which had roads "around" it. And these roads were built on a hill. Here's a diagram:
------------
|Cemetery |
|.............. |
------------
Except that it was actually longer vertically but anyway, the vertical bits were REALLY steep slopes so what we had to do was run down the right side, and then go across and run up the other and so forth. It was bad. The slope isn't too bad until you get to the top and you just die from being out of breath. I only managed 2 laps continuous before walking down the slope but running up the next one. So you can say I did 2.5 laps. Mr VP did 4.5 laps continuously and so did some of the guys in his PE class. Yeah fit people... Finished off with some sit ups and push ups.

So anyway, we went straight to breakfast. We were not too sweaty cause it was nice and cool. Breakfast was simple, your usual toast and jams or cereal. After that we were given a bit of time to chill and then get started on activities. All the Year 12's were split into 8 groups and we had a different activity and rotated.

Groups 1+2: Goal Setting
Groups 3+4: English session
Groups 5+6: Snowy River+Snake Challenge
Groups 7+8: Bush and Cave challenge

So I started off with Goal Setting. We had a German guy and his accent was pretty funny. Too bad the stuff he talked about was boring and irrelevant. It was a pretty bad session. The only thing I picked up was that he used the phrase "For sure" constantly. At one point no one was answering the question he was asking and I was just sick of it already so I went ahead and replied. He then said I was amazing and asked for a hug. A bit awkward. Just a bit. Never gave it to him. ahahah

We had a break and during the break they announced that the teacher who lost her car keys also lost her laptop so they asked us to go back to our tent/cabin to see if we might have grabbed it accidentally. I don't know how you can do that with a laptop but anyway, we did that and all was good. They didn't suspect the students but they just did it to cover all possibilities. Those two things still missing.
With that, we went on to the next activity.

My group did the Snowy River first while Group 1 did Snakes.
The Snowy River Challenge was a team challenge and it consisted of 5 parts.
1) Walking over a log to the other side that is suspended on a small mud pit. If you fell in you start over.
2) Get over a ~2.5 meter high wall with only the help of teammates. People who were boosted over cannot boost again and can only support the other people from falling behind.
3) Walk over a wire suspended over a river. You had two ropes at the side to hang onto
4) Crawl through this man made wombat hole which had very bad smelling stagnant water
5) Swing across to the opposite platform on a rope. All members had to be on the rope before our time was taken.

Our team had 13 people and only had 3 guys but one of them (Mark) was pretty tank so we weren't too bad. We started off well with people crossing the log pretty easy. I tried and because I am so uncoordinated almost fell and managed to jump back to the start. I decided to be lame and crawl my way over. As in lying flat on the log and pulling myself across. Apart from a few stains on the clothes, it was good. According to the staff there I was the first person to do it that way and not fall over. Achievement! ahaha

We went to the wall next and blitzed right through it. Mark boosted everyone up and we supported each other real well. I, being the uncoordinated one again, got over but somehow managed to fall back on the starting side but manage to push myself back on the wall and over the other side. *cough*

The wire was a breeze and it was over before we knew it. Then it came to the wombat hole. You had to crawl into it because it was not high at all. Most points I was crawling on my hands and knees while some points I had to be in a "push up" position (To avoid getting completely drenched in the horrible water in there) while using my elbows to shimmy myself forward. The water smelled unimaginably bad and after a being in it for a bit and getting a few scrapes here and there, we ended up crawling out of the hole like zombies coming out of the ground. Tiffany broke a scab from a previous injury from her knee which caused massive bleeding and had to go get it cleaned up.

Finally we had the swinging. It was on a rope so there it swung all over the place. We bought a hint with a 2 minute penalty and aced the thing easy. We all landed on the platform easily with me landing on the butt and doing one of those Mario butt smashes. Yeah.

We ended up with the best time for the course and it felt amazing. We headed over to the next bit where we got to hold and put a python around our neck. Pretty cool.
Break for lunch. I washed my hands 4 times and the smell from the water in the hole was still there so I had to eat the NACHOS for lunch with a fork being careful not to touch it. Yes the smell was that bad. After lunch and a quick break it was on to the next activity.

My group was in the English session. Since myself and Tiffany don't do mainstream English, we didn't have to sit for the session and got free time. Well we were supposed to do stuff with Ms Campbell (Very awesome teacher) but she was happy to give us free time so that was that. We sat around and had a chat with some teachers and then went for a walk to see what the other people were doing. We went to the Snowy River challenge and a team was halfway through the Wombat hole when something happened. A guy came out of the hole in a weird way and dislocated his knee (He had a bad knee to begin with). By dislocated I mean the whole part of his leg from kneecap down got twisted to the side. It didn't sound pretty. We didn't go there to see but yeah. Ouch. The Snowy River challenge was then closed for the rest of the day while they got an ambulance to take him to the hospital. I pity the teams who didn't get to do the amazing course but not more than the guy (Luke). It was his 18th birthday the day before too.

After that, another short break and off to the last activity. We went Bush challenge first and then Cave. Bush consisted of a few parts as well.
1) Climb up this small ledge with the help of a rope.
2) Jump into a pit that is kinda deep filled with some sponge/foam. Then we have to boost each other out of it.
3) Walk across two wires with a partner. The wires were further apart as you went along so you had to support each other an move.
4) Memory game. Lift off buckets from a small poles revealing the colour underneath and if it matched the bucket was off, if not it stays on. Only a pair of people are allowed to take one bucket off per match.
5) Jigsaw puzzle.

At the start of activity 1&2 we had to hold onto a puzzle piece at the start of the activity while we get another one each after doing activity 3&4. So off we went.
First one was pretty easy. Threw the puzzle piece up to whoever who got up already and just pulled myself up. Headed off to the pit and jumped in. Boosted one person up and passed the pieces to her. Mark boosted everyone again and this time I didn't fall back. hahaha
Because we had to get the other two pieces across the wire as well, Tiff and I placed it between us and used it as our support instead. Done that pretty easily and went on to the memory game. Did that and then the staff told us that at this point there are 4 more pieces hidden around the place to find so off we went. We spent a bit of time on the puzzle cause it was quite confusing but finished it after a bit. We were 30 seconds behind the fastest team so yeah...

After that we went on to the Cave challenge. We went down this trapdoor which led us to a dark tunnel and had to find our way to a room. We went down in pairs or threes which made it pretty simple. People were hyping up this activity so I expected quite highly of it but was a bit disappointed that it was actually really short. If it was longer it would have been really good.

We had another break and then dinner. We had an early dinner at 5.30 pm consisting of rice and curry with mint yogurt. It wasn't too bad. We had an early dinner because we were doing the MONSTER COURSE at around 6.30. We were told to get changed into stuff that we wouldn't care to get dirty and wet.
So off we went and came back to meet up to have the whole course explained to us. This whole thing is again, a team challenge.

1) Swim in the really cold and dirty lake to an island in the middle, ring a bell and swim back. Then fill a bucket that has holes to a certain level with water.
2) Grab ten tyres and run to the next station. We have to be linked at all times when running to another station. We get to drop one tyre after completing a station.
3) Get 5 charades right and push yourself over a ramp
4) Throw one of the tyres we have onto a pole
5) Two ends. One end with 5 red tyres and the other with black. There is a sled in the middle and we had to place tyres on it one at a time and pull to the other side.
6) Lobster challenge. Four people have to support one person lying on their belly and that person had to pick up 15 balls scattered around an area.
7) Grab puzzle pieces and run across a mini obstacle course and place it on the other
8) As a team, collectively do 100 pushups, 100 situps, 100 star jumps, 100 squats, 100 mountain climbers
9) Go through a mud pit under a net with all members linked together with the remaining tyres we had.
10) Get frisbees and throw them across a mat and try to get the majority of one to land in the bullseye area.
11) Run to the finish point and have the whole team touch a pole to finish.

So yes.. It's a Monster course indeed. My team got to go second. I was pumped to do it.

Now this is probably one of the stupidest thing I have done in my life. Like REALLY stupid. We started off and we jumped into the lake. I FREAKING forgot to take my glasses off and didn't realise until I got to the middle of the lake. At this point the lake was really deep and I couldn't swim properly in fear of my glasses sinking to the bottom of the lake. Panicking, I suddenly started flailing for help and looked like an idiot who couldn't swim. I was holding onto my glasses so staying afloat was quite difficult as well.

The thing about that though, the thought of drowning NEVER crossed my mind. I just had the feeling that my teammates and people around me would be able to help me get out of there and within a few seconds, they did. Two teammates swam over to give support and our year level coordinator, Mr Tuck dived in to pull me back. Once I could touch land again, I got on my feet and just ran back to shore. No one laughed and they were cheering instead. I took a few seconds to shake it off and continued with the rest of the team to do the rest.

My mistake here was being an idiot and not taking my glasses off, underestimating how deep the lake was and panicking when I could have easily just swam back to shore instead of staying there.
I feel like such a retard for actually doing that but everyone makes mistakes and I am glad I got through that and experienced a tight situation.

Anyway, back to the course, we grabbed our tyres and raced off to the Charades and so forth. We had a few issues with getting the tyre on the tall pole but managed it after a few tries. The rest of the course was pretty simple but just exhausting. We got to the end and just waited around for the other teams to finish since each team started 3 minutes after the other. The sun was starting to cold down and it started getting really cold. Everyone was just shivering and you could only imagine our joy when they said we have to go do the whole thing AGAIN!

Some people were reluctant but most just did it again anyway. I didn't go rushing into the lake this time because I was just too cold to be bothered swimming. While plugging up the holes in the bucket to be filled, I still got people pouring the lake water all over me anyway so I was freaking drenched as we ran to the next station. Shivering and shouting at each other, we all pulled through and finished the whole thing all over again. Those who finished rushed straight to the showers.

Now the issue here is that there are only FOUR showers in the tent are where there are like 60 guys. I was one of the few first to finish but there was already a line. So I decided to sneak on down to the toilets at the place we meet up because there are two showers there as well. Bumped into Mr Tuck along the way and had a quick chat about what happened. Just a bit embarrassing. haha
He was headed towards the showers there as well and when we walked in, there were already 3 others in front of us. 2 showering and one in the line. There were only two showers there so we waited. Anyway, main thing is showered without too much hassle of being in a long line. The line at the toilet near the tents was so long that some people ended up just using the hose outside the toilet to clean up.

After that we were invited to some really good chocolate cake and muffins for dessert at the lodge(where we meet). At this time it was probably like 9-ish so we had around 2 hours to just mingle around. Talked to a few people then went back to the tents area to see a few more people around there along with some teachers so more chatting occurred. At this point, a cabin was pumping up songs REAL loud and they were pretty much having a party in there with a few teachers so it was pretty hilarious. I would have gone had I actually known about it at that time :/ Just not cool enough. Then again, it's not like EVERYONE was there so I can't be too uncool right? xD
Off to bed a bit past 11 and slept like a pig this time. It was SO comfortable. I woke up once and wondered why I was and because it was so comfy in the sleeping bag I thought I was like back home or something. It was really warm in the cool night air. A great sleep.

18/03/2011
IT'S FRIDAY, FRIDAY, GOTTA GET DOWN ON FRIDAY!
*cough* Right. (Check out the song if you haven't. It's so bad it is hilarious)

I was going to wake up for another morning run but was sleeping WAY too well to be bothered :P
We were woken up around 7.50 am to get ready for breakfast (Which is at 8 lol) and found out when we went down there that breakfast today was at 8.30 and we had to pack up our stuff and bring it down before we had breakfast so off we went. Did all that and sat down for breakfast. PANCAKES!!! Omnomnom

During breakfast we got some really good news. Ms Sainsbury, the one who lost her keys and laptop, has found them! Apparently it was stashed in a secret drawer in her room and forgotten about it. We had a good laugh about it and she helped with the dishes for breakfast for causing the inconvenience. Good times.
A quick break after we headed off to meet for the final activities for camp. They all involve some sort of height in them and involved harnesses. What they had were:

* Flying Fox- Self explanatory

* Tightwire- Two people walk on a wire like a tight rope, meet in the middle and sorta let go of the harness rope. Not too sure

* Skybridge- Suspended over the lake, two people cross it from either side and passing each other in the middle. The tricky bit is that the planks are not very wide but they are wide apart.

* Rock Climbing- Different levels of it

* Leap of Faith- You jump off this ledge and try to grab and hold onto a bar. Then you try to get you legs hooked onto the bar and then straighten your legs and free fall with a guy handling the rope to so that he stops you in time. Worse case you land on a mattress. If you don't get the bar, you just fall. ahaha

* Summit Window- Go WAY high up and climb up this pole with steps to a really small platform. You then lean back and let go of the pole then proceed to tilt even more to a 45 degree angle.

* Giant Swing- Two people are hooked onto this wire where it is connected to a rope via a "key" and people down there pull so that you get pulled back (like a slingshot)
and then at the highest point, you release the "key" and go swinging like mad.

* "Something" Ladders- Not too sure about this one. Couldn't get it.

We got to do one of those activities, a quick break for doughnuts and then move on to another one. I did the Giant Swing and then the Summit Window and luckily still had time to fit in a quick Leap of Faith.
The Giant Swing was amazing, it was like riding a roller coaster. The first few drops felt so weird but it got okay after a while. The Summit Window was nice cause the view was great and it was simple to do but tilting back on a 45 degree angle was a little tough without feeling like you were going to fall over. As for the Leap of Faith, I managed to grab the bar but couldn't hold on and fell pretty awkwardly. Oh well, at least I tried.

So after a lunch of Hamburgers and some closing words, we hopped on the bus for the drive back. It's quite sad that it's all over. These past three days have been phenomenal. I learned and experienced a lot. So many inside jokes were created on this camp and it feels good to be part of it. I am so glad I had the opportunity to go.
The only bad thing about camp was the terrible drinking water. It tasted really bad and I almost puked just using it to brush my teeth. Thank god for bottled water and having friends bring them :P Oh and orange juice. Lots of it.

This year is going to be good. Bring it Year 12!

*If you actually read through all that I commend you and thank you so much. Only took me like 2 hours or so to type it all up. ahahah
Ciao!

I apologize for the previous emo post. Was being a bit over with it.

Finally cleared things up and it's all good.
It's funny cause it really wasn't that big of a deal but it just seemed like it when it
happened.

Ah well, that's another episode closed. Time to move on.

On another note, I have to go for Year 7 camp on Tuesday (Just for a day)
Cause they want some of the school leaders there for some reason so I get to miss school :P
PHILIP ISLAND! FUN CAMP! ahahaha

And then I have Year 12 camp from Wednesday to Friday. And today (Monday) is a public holiday. Some week of school this week will be :P

I'll see if I have the motivation to update about camp when I return along with that past event which happened like a month ago.
Cheers!

So after going through quite possibly, one of the worst hours ever for me so far...

I am so tempted to just contradict my last blog post and forget it but I should know that nothing's going to change if I do that. I should remember what happened and why it happened.

Though in doing that, it means there are some changes that I am going to have to make and I really am not looking forward to it.

I don't know how this is gonna go down the rest of the year.
I really did not need all that this year.

But oh well, it's life. Just gotta suck it up and move on.
It's going to be a bloody interesting year indeed.

The Places We Should Have Gone- Memories

2011-03-11T15:34:00.007+08:00

-LONG POST AHEAD - Bear with it!!

"Some try to forget... Some tend to dwell. Me..? I will do neither."

If you guys haven't seen that video, I strongly suggest you do. WongFu has some really heartwarming videos apart from funny ones and this one really made me feel touched.

While I haven't been in a relationship before, I think this story applies to so many things. There are times we wish we could have done something, but the opportunity has passed and we can no longer do that. Do we just forget what happened and move one or do we feel pitiful and regret not doing it?

I think Phil has thought out this story really well. A bit from the director's commentary:
"Whether or not she gives him another chance is left open, but the ending line is what I wanted to emphasize… When people break up, they usually handle it in one of two ways. They either push themselves to forget about it and move on, or they wallow in depression, holding on. In my opinion, I don’t think it’s good to do either. Trying to forget means getting rid of all the experiences and lessons. Dwelling means not accepting and growing from the same experiences/lessons. When Becky says “I will do neither”, she’s saying, I can move on, while still remembering why."

Doing neither is just what we should be applying to many of the things we experience. In exams or tests, when we miss out on a question, we really shouldn't worry about it so much but not forget about the mistake we made. We should remember what went wrong and keep it in mind so that if it does happen again, the old scenario would not reoccur.

Watching this video really made me think and recall my times in Malaysia. When I left at the beginning of this year, I genuinely felt sad. I had such a good time with friends and family that I really was not studying as hard as I should be. In other words, I was dwelling, thinking about how nice those times were and how I would like to relive all those moments.
Then I decided that I needed to focus on work so I tried to forget about it. What's gone is gone. It's in the past.

At last, I realised that forgetting it isn't going to mean a thing. Moderation is key. It's important to keep thinking about tomorrow but there is no reason to not remember all the good times I had. Watching this video just really reinforced that idea.

This video also reminded me of the times back when I was really young. My parents had a little hardship at that time so I lived with an aunty up until I was about 3. And back in those times, my aunty and her family would always buy little snacks from night markets (pasar malam ;D)
like the one in the video. I remember being such a happy kid. Remembering about those times then made me think of how much fun I had growing up with her children. They were like 13-20 years older than me but they treated me like I was their own sibling. They cared for me through their Uni work and it was just so nice.

When I was a tad older, I stayed at their place quite regularly during the holidays and my cousins (her children) would take me to the night market and we would meet people from around the neighbourhood and it was just so quaint.

As I grew up I went to their place less and less. Usually only once or twice a year. Now that I am in Melbourne, I only see them once every time I go back to Malaysia. And even then these cousins of mine are hardly ever at my aunty's house because they have their own families now. When we do see each other, it's very awkward and there's nothing much to say. I am actually really sad that it has become like this, they were like a second family to me and I think I probably have to do something about that.

Sorry for going a little off. As I was saying, other old times when I was growing up came to mind when thinking about my time in this aunty's house.
First day of Chinese New Year, I wake up and see my parents, Chinese New year music blaring through my father's stereo. Customary "Gong Hei Fatt Choy"s are said and then we prepare to go to my Grandma's (from my father's side) house, wearing brand new clothes and such.

There, more exchanges of "Gong Hei Fatt Choy" happens and we get our Angpaus. Everyone gets together and just have a really good time. We see many other people who come to visit and it's just so eventful. This year and the past two years, I spent CNY away from my family and I can surely say that I miss the atmosphere so much.

I miss waking up and hearing the sound of my dad's stereo blaring. I miss seeing all my cousins and just getting along with all of them well.
Not to mention times other than Chinese New Year; just some of the little things the family does kinda makes me feel sad that I don't do it anymore.

The bonds between me and that my father's side of the family have just weakened a lot. It was VERY strong in the past but strong enough to see everyone get together. Now when I go back to meet them all, it's just very awkward and we are all kinda just doing our own thing.

Last but not least, it's all the times I have spent with my friends. Sure they are not as warm and fuzzy as tie spent with family but they are FULL of fun and laughter. Especially with the people I met starting from 2007 :)

-Random fact, I changed school EVERY THREE years so I met quite a few people. Three years in Kindergarten. Three years in a primary school. Three years in another one. Three years in SMK USJ 4. And now, three years in Melbourne. And later, probably three years for a degree as well. ahhaha-

But anyway, just a bit about what I have been thinking the past hour before doing this post while watching the video. I know it seems a little extreme that the one video could do so much huh? I dunno, I just sort of relate to the moral of the story somehow.

So after talking about all those memories, does it seem like I am dwelling int he past and contradicting everything I said earlier? Hmm... I hope not.

It's been a while since I updated but that video just really put me in the mood to share.
I hope you guys learned and felt something from the video too.
Again, maybe I am over thinking things but hey... whatever floats your boat :)

Till the next post.Yes I still owe the blog a post about past activities but... :|
Anyway, thanks for reading up till here if you read the whole thing!
Peace :)

2011-02-24T06:22:00.004+08:00

HELLO PEEPS!

It had been a while. I actually am in the middle of writing up a post about this amazing event I did 2 weeks ago so yeah... It's still in the works

I wouuld actually finish that post now instead of doing this but I am in school and taking a break from the boring analytical chemistry chapters I need to do so yeah... Why not blog? xD

The school give us VCE students exclusive use of Netbooks . These are so fun to use. It's all tiny and micro and stuff. hahaha

The Year 7's are getting a talk about using the library. It's pretty funny to sit here attempting to do work while you listen to the little kiddies get excited over library stuff. Gosh I wish there was something interesting to talk about now.

I know.. here's some Chemistry for you guys!

UV-visible spectroscopy
An analytical technique involving measuremnt of the UV-visible light absorbed by a substance.

And then there is junk like AAS and AES and IR
Ugh... I prefer Chemistry with calculations. At least there is a clear answer to what your final answer must be. I never know if I have enough detail or too much detail in the stuff I write for theory questions.

Which is why Bio is probably gonna kill me because I will include so much detail into it that half of it is probably unnecesary. ahahah...

I think I should get back to those questions now. There's 40 to do by Monday and I am only up to question 9. Pfft...
Just so you know.. I am not behind in class... I'm on par! Probably should attempt to work ahead. Sadly Chapter 8 is about MORE analytical chemistry which will kill me more.
Chapter 9 I am looking forward to though... Naming and drawing Hydrocarbons!! yay Organic Chemistry!! :D

Hopefully I finish the other post eventually. See you guys next time

2011-02-09T20:09:00.002+08:00

Was gonna update the blog tonight about recent happenings but
ended up doing something else so yeah... Sorry dear bloggie D:

I am so grateful to have the friends that I have. Thank you all so much.

Inspired?

2011-01-31T11:07:00.010+08:00

Hello all! This is going to be a very short post as I need to finish off that book report...

Yesterday, it was apparently 40 degrees in Melbourne and I wen to the city to meet up with a few people. It really wasn't that bad. Of course, I was indoors most of the time but that place was infamous for it's stuffiness but lo and behold, I didn't feel a thing in there!

Either they improved on air conditioning, the weather wasn't that bad OR I don't feel the heat. I would like it to be the third option but the former seems more likely. Anyway, just saying it wasn't so bad.

What was bad though, was the trip back home. I had to catch the bus back and everyone who was at the beach decided to go back that time as well. So the bus was packed like a sardine. we went by quite a few stops before it reached mine and the bus had to skip all the poor people waiting there. ahahah No, that's mean.
This was taken yesterday once I got home.

On the note of pictures, I recently got an iPhone app called ProCamera which lets me manually adjust focus, light exposure and white balance along with anti-shake which is handy. It was actually sort of an impulse buy because the reviews and previews I read/saw were really good and it seemed like such an improvement over the standard iPhone camera. So I thought, why not? It's not like I have a DSLR but it's close enough?
The pic up there was with the standard camera btw.

I still haven't learned how to adjust the focus and light exposure properly yet so I shall be practicing that when I have spare time. The quality is meh-ish since it's only a 5MP camera but it looks really nice on the iPhone. I think it looks half decent here. You be the judge?

Personally, this one is my favourite. :P
Oh, and it even comes with an editing software for effects and retouches! Of course, I also have Photoshop on the computer and an express version on the iPhone but I'm too noob with the computer one and the express once is very basic. So yeah...
I shall play around with this app and see how it goes. I think DSLRs can wait. This once acts sorta like a mini-mini-mini DSLR so if I can't work this one out, I doubt I can handle a real one.

So yes, see you all next update!

So fly like a G6

2011-01-27T18:38:00.004+08:00

Hello peeps.

Back in Melbourne today.

Before leaving, I met up with a few people at Pyramid and had a good laugh at the Convention Centre. I am really loving that place!

Oh yeah, we were eating at A&W and this shop kept blasting "Like A G6" over the speakers. Made me very happy :D

Time passed by so quickly that day. Before I knew it I was saying goodbye to my buddies and parents for yet another year. It's so quiet here...

I actually want school to start now.

Only got like 3 hours of sleep on the flight and the first thing I did when I got home was unpack and reorganise my room. Yeah I'm that smart to waste energy like that on the first day back.
I would have gone online but I didn't have the password to the WiFi so I was stuck without it till like 8 pm.

I don't know what else to include in this post. In a very blah mood right now. Can't tell if it's jetlag or just the sheer thought of "no more chilling out every day and have to start work"
Yes I am terrible.

So here are a few shots I took today. I think Mun Hong and Syaza influenced me to take scenery pics somehow. Also the fact that carrying an iPhone around probably makes snapping pics quite easy and convenient. Not the best photos going around but it's something? hahaha
I feel like a post with a title with reference to "Like A G6" deserves a better post but.... *sigh*

When we take things for granted

I just found this video to be very touching. Go ahead and read the Director's notes in the link right under the video.

DIRECTOR'S NOTES

What ifs and zen-ness

2011-01-18T20:55:00.006+08:00

What if I didn't go to Melbourne to study?

Really makes me wonder sometimes. Not that I am regretting my decision but really... How would things be playing out now?

If I didn't go, I would be there for all those events and outings with friends, dinners with family
If I didn't go, I would be in one of the colleges now bumping into friends from years back and seeing them be friends with friends from high school.
If I didn't go, I would have no holiday homework and not have to worry about Year 12
If I didn't go, I would not be wondering about it this way...

Of course, looking on the other side...

If I didn't go, I wouldn't have met a lot of cool people in Melbourne
If I didn't go, I probably couldn't have known what I would strive for in future
If I didn't go, I wouldn't have experienced so many leadership experiences and independence
If I didn't go, I wouldn't get to take only 6 subjects for VCE and have to take like 10 for SPM

Life is full of crossroads. Is there really a correct path to take? Which path would bring up more possibilities or success? Would the initial paths intersect somehow? Make me wonder too.

I think I waste my time a lot pondering about this and imagining what the other path looks like. If I assume the path I am on now is like a fresh road with lots of speed bumps on it, would the other path be this new highway which is smooth sailing with just a few turns or would it be a battered old road full of holes?

Sadly, looks like I will never find out. There's no looking back now, I have chosen the path and have to continue on down it until I hit a crossroad again.

This is why I wish I could turn time around and see how it would have played out if I chose the other path.

Bah, enough of the sad attempt at being deep and emo and let's talk fun.
------------------------------------------
Before I start- Thanks Mun Hong for taking and uploading the pics! I would steal from Syaza too but they're still not up yet.. hahaha

So last Saturday, a few of us decided to be all cool and go for morning tea. As in going by the lake and drinking tea- from a teapot! haha
We left Sanesh's about 7.40 am. He drove Mun Hong, Deion and I while his mum took Syaza, Aifa and Dain. Thank you Sanesh and aunty!!

We went to Taman Aman in PJ right next to the Taman Paramount LRT station.

On the way there. Missing Mun Hong from the group.
Okay so the lake was a little green but the weather was amazing! Nice and cloudy

Where we sat down
The tea set!

We sat, had tea and talked till about 9.30 or so and decided to take a walk around the park.
Being the cool kids we are, we decided to go to every playground we passed by and use every exercise equipment that was there!

Somewhere along the way, Syaza and Mun Hong went away to use Mun Hong's tripod to take pics with their DSLR. The rest of us thought they should be left alone so we decided to run off.

We came across the skateboard ramps and chilled there for a bit before running off further until we came to this "obstacle course" place and did more running and "training". haha
Syaza and Mh saw us and we saw them coming towards us so the 5 of us sped off away from them. We lost them and just sat down again playing a bit of Blackjack and more chit chat.

They found us again and there was no running away this time. haha
Oh guess what though, they didn't even bother trying to find us. Hmmmm... ;)
Anyway, they had the idea for a spontaneous trip to KLCC since the LRT was so close by and it was decided. Off we went to KLCC! haha

Waiting for the LRT. Once again, Mun Hong behind the camera.

Got there fairly quickly, walked around and then went for lunch. Very filling and satisfying after running around. Then we decided to go out to the park (Yes,another park) and snap more pics and just walk around again.

We decided to try jump shots using Mun Hong's camera and tripod and WOW was that hard...
Had to try quite a few times to get it right since we didn't know when his DSLR was actually going to snap the pic but it turned out alright eventually.

The camera thought us walking towards it after jumping was better than jump shots.
One of the TWO successful shots

Dain told us about how the security guards were being very strict the last time he was here and in the middle of the jump shots one of the guards kept blowing a whistle in our direction. Luckily it wasn't us but a group of people near us. hahaha

Anyway, we saw this really big playground and decided to chill around there for a bit.
Then we had to head back to KLCC and then the LRT cause some of us had to be back early.
Along the way some of us were feeling quite thirsty so we went ahead to buy drinks before getting on the LRT. Little did we know we weren't allowed drinks on board and decided to finish it on the spot so that the money wasn't wasted! haha

So we got back to Taman Paramount and got a ride back from Sanesh and his mum.
Day well spent indeed :)

That's about it. 8 more days to Melbourne. Such a bittersweet feeling.

And it goes on...

2011-01-10T14:41:00.002+08:00

Yet another day is passing by.

Did nothing at home apart from watching movies. Now about to start doing math work.
I guess it's just part being a student.

Sometimes I wonder if it would be more bearable if I didn't have such a good time going out with family and friends that it's so overly dull and depressing to be doing work again.

Such is life... ahahah...

Arithmetic Progressive Fun!

2011-01-07T03:10:00.009+08:00

Arithmetic Progression (AP)- An arithmetic progression/sequence is a sequence of numbers in which the difference between two successive number is a constant, d.

You might be wondering why in the world am I starting off the post with maths... well, it's cause I'm ASIAN!! xD

Hahaha, I kid! AP might have significance in t he Mathematics world but it's got an even bigger significance to me.

AP is what my friends and I dubbed as a sorta "anti prom" and a formal/big way to say goodbye to high school before we all start going our separate ways. Everyone dressed quite fancy and it was a superb night. So much laughter, countless pictures and a generally great time.

Started off waiting for Pang, Mun Hong and Brian to arrive then went on to pick up Tracey and Brynn. Was just a bit late to Holiday Inn at Glenmarie and saw Irvin, Shermaine, Tessa, Brandon and Jo Yee waiting for us. Lepak a bit and I asked to take a pic with the girls.

And something happened....

This random guy came over and was like, "I want a picture with the girls too." and asked me to take the picture. He was clearly a bit tipsy so I was a bit reluctant to actually agree to it but the girls did. A quick awkward photo later, we hurried off to the restaurant to wait for Julia, Aqilah, Aifa and Syaza.

At the restaurant, the guy told us we had to split up cause they cannot fit so many people on one table as it would obstruct the pathways. Irvin went on ahead to ask them to arrange a different table just for us which they agreed to. Very happy that worked out.

Our table. When we were done with it. Sorry for the slight chronological disorder

A bit after we sat down and started getting food, the last 4 girls arrived. And the madness started. We talked. We laughed. We ate. Snapped pics. And were just ourselves. Sheer bliss!
To think our group would be separated soon with college and stuff...wow...

Anyway, we started eating about 8.10 till like 9.20 ish and felt extremely full. There was not THAT many varieties of food but it was decent quality. The best bit about buffets is obviously the desserts and this was no different. Chocolate fondue and heaps of other goodies were there. Very satisfying.

Choc Fondue! :)

When we satisfied our tummies, we just hung around and laughed and took a lot of pictures all over the restaurant. It was good cause we were the only people in there so it certainly felt like we booked out the place. So worth it! Since the restaurant closed at 10.30, we decided to pay at about 10.20 and gather around the dessert table to grab a few last minute goodies.
I have to say even if it was a little pricey, that was money damn well spent! Here are some of the many pics we took

Just to give you an idea how all over the restaurant we were xD

Some of the girls and myself

The guys.

We left the restaurant and headed towards the lobby and found a really good spot to take MORE photos and we hung around there for like 40 minutes doing "photoshoots". Very hilarious. Here are a few...
Foggy camera lens. haha
Guys being awesome
Girls with evil eyes ;P

Staircase shot with some people missing. The whole group photo is still with Mun Hong. Waiting to be uploaded. hahaha

And yes, that was extremely tiring! One thing though, guys are much better posers as girls :P

So we decided to hang around the lobby a bit to chat but Irvin had to go already. After saying goodbye we decided to go to this area where there were two performers there to give them some support and sing-a-long.

Since we were so supportive and were like really the only group to pay attention to them, they started talking to us and asking what we were doing then ended up singing for us. haha
Really sorta like Prom where you have your own DJ and stuff. of course the music wasn't THAT good but hey, it was free! We also managed to get Syaza to go up there and sing Colours of The Wind from Pochahontas. I haven't heard that song for ages.

Not a very good photo but there were no others available. If anyone wants to hear her sing a bit here's the link. Not sure if it works. Only the first bit is her singing. Shermaine's cam didn't have enough memory to finish the song.

After that we pretty much talked for like 5 minutes and everyone had to leave. It was close to midnight. It was pretty sad to see everyone go as this was such a good meet up. I can't believe how much fun I had with this group doing random things! haha

To sum up the group:
-Myself
-Syaza
-Julia
-Aqilah
-Aifa
-Irvin
-Pang
-Brian
-Brandon
-Tessa
-Jo Yee
- Shermaine
-Tracey
-Brynn
-Mun Hong

THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH FOR THE AMAZING NIGHT! I cannot repeat this enough. Love you all :) I don't think it will be possible to transfer all the fun and memories we experienced that night onto writing.

So anyway, sent Tracey, Brynn, Aifa, Brian, Mun Hong and Pang home. Pang, Mun Hong, Brandon and myself decided to go lepak at mamak to finish the night off and off we went. Mun Hong drove of course. haha

Picked up Brandon and headed to the mamak to chill till like 1.50 am and then came home about 2. A very good chat with the guys indeed :)

So yes. that's how I spent 6/01/2011 night till 07/01/2011. If I could, I definitely would love to repeat the night, I think I have the coolest friends. hahaha

After tonight, I really hope there are more chances for things like this to happen in future. Yes, everyone might make new friends in college and travelling on their own paths but I believe we will still keep in touch and stick together somehow.

I mean, I have been away from this group of people for two years, coming back only at the year end for holidays and I still speak to them like I see them everyday and that is no different for everyone involved here. No awkward silences. No quiet moments. Just lots of madness. I like it this way.

Thank god for having blogs and Facebook and MSN to keep in touch with friends and family. You guys are all amazing! :)

The coming nights and maybe even days will be so dull in comparison to this. I guess we can't dwell in the past forever... but we sure can keep recalling them for sheer joy :D

Turning over a new leaf?

2011-01-05T14:30:00.003+08:00

Back in 2007. Julia!! Please say you still have that thing! It was the best xD

Hello people!

2011 has come upon us. Yes, I realise I'm like 5 days late but cut me some slack huh?

It's been almost a month since I came back to Malaysia for holidays and so much has happened.
It's pretty impossible to blog about all of it so I'll just leave it at that. I am glad I have journalist friends *cough*SyazaandJulia*cough* who do such a good job recording all of our outings

I think I have used that excuse too many times now. Okay. I resolve that this will be the last time I do that! I must try to update on stuff by myself. Let's hope that works out.. eheheh

Anyway, things changed so much in the past years.
I was reading Syaza, Julia, Aqilah's and some of my form 2 posts today (hence the picture up there) and seriously smiled at so many posts. The way we blogged was hilarious. We must have been so cool back then. Of course, not just the way we blogged made me smile, there are all the memories, laughter and dramas included as well.

Back to things changing, I have only been back a month now and already I have two friends leaving to study overseas. Everyone has their separate paths now...

Shu Run to Wellington

and Guo Yao to UK. (No pic of just me and GY.. wow haha)
And everyone else to their own college courses.
So here's wishing them all the best with where they are and what they are doing!
Hopefully we'll all still be in contact and be able to meet up every once in a while.

Hmm... that was a very poorly strung together piece of writing. I'd probably get like a D in English if I wrote like that xD Excuse the weak transition.

Anyway, I guess change is inevitable. It's not all bad though. It makes life interesting even if it does take us away from our comfort zone.

Looking back at my two years in Melbourne, a lot has definitely happened and I hardly recorded any of it down here. I guess I really should huh? I only had 6 posts in 2010. How pathetic!
I have no idea how to wrap 2010 up though. Seems like so much has happened and I don't know how to transfer it all here. I'll definitely try harder this year.

I guess this is just a post to start me off for 2011. I [s]need to[/s] WANT TO start blogging again. It's a nice way to just rant or ramble on about things happening.

I have another 3 weeks left here in Malaysia. Currently starting on all that homework that I have waiting for me. This year is gonna be hell...

School Captain duties.
Year 12 studies.
Applying for Uni.
Part time job (Need cash :/)
Random chores that will be lying around the house for me to do.

What more to do than to take things bit by bit and with a positive attitude?

One step at a time... there's no need to rush- It's like learning to fly, or falling in love~
- Jordin Sparks

Bring it on 2011!!! Let's see who's the tougher one eh?

PS. I can't help but feel how poorly strung together this post is. I think it's due to my lack of blogging and too many things I am trying to fit into one post. I had so many things I wanted to blog about but they didn't flow together very well. Ahh well, practice makes perfect ;)

Just because

2010-11-06T11:15:00.004+08:00

Hello! How is everyone?

Finally got enough motivation to do this blog post. I have been meaning to blog consistently but you know how I am.. hahaha

Anyway, nothing much has come up since my last update. I've got exams going on now but being me, I'm just chilling flipping through my notes and stuff. I probably could do better but I think I might have done way too much earlier this year and now everything is just like crashing down on me. You could say I have crashed and burned? haha

I'll have you know I actually was like SUPER hardworking earlier in the year but then like a
y= -e^x (You should know how the graph looks like! lol) I just can't seem to keep going.
I think I might pace myself out a bit more next year...

Had my first Year 12 exam yesterday. A Maths Methods one. The one which will contribute to my Uni qualifications. I wouldn't say I did fantastic but I think I did alright. I tried extremely hard to avoid all discussion about it after the exam but I still overheard a few things which made me doubt a few of my answers.

Oh well.. can't do anything about that now...

The one I just did was the calculator free one and I have the Calculator allowed one on Monday. Cannot wait to get it over and done with. I have had enough Maths for this year. The worst bit is that I have my Yr 11 exams right after so I gotta prep for that (Still got to make notes for Bio and Chem... sigh). Then right after that I have my Yr 12 Chinese written exam which also contributes to my Uni qualifications...

Right after that I need to go for a panel interview/presentation with teachers to run for School Captain and if I pass that I have to prepare a speech to present to students. I have so many things lined up but I am still not in the mood to actually get my butt moving. Not good.

Cannot wait till it's all over. I need a break from all this. Like a proper break without guilt and stuff.

I have been chatting to a few of the people back in Malaysia recently. I am so happy I still have stuff that I can speak to them about. I would be so devastated if one day I meet them and just can't get a conversation going anymore cause it's been so long and awkward. hahaha

Speaking of Malaysia, when I get back, friends are still going through SPM. So to be in spirit with them, I am gonna be taking an exam as well. But I think it'll be on a day right after their SPM. Yea.. Gonna go for the Undang for my driving license. I might as well try for it since I can. No harm carrying it with me. So now I have to read this....

Asking me to read and study BM again is so weird after not doing it for like 2 years. I flipped through it the other day and thankfully still understood like 99% of it. hahahaha

So yea.. That's about it right now. I think I should get to studying.

School Night EUREKA!

2010-10-12T19:59:00.003+08:00

Hello all! How are we today?

If you did not pick up the semi-obvious hint in the last post, it was mine and Zoe's birthday yesterday (11/10). I had such a good day it's not even funny.

Let me give you guys a quick rundown..

I had my Chinese Oral exam on the day in the afternoon.
I still had to go to school because I had my important Year 12 class in the morning and because I can't wear school uniform for the Oral exam, I decided to not wear my leather school shoes since I would be wearing jeans and a shirt. Instead, I wore my awesomely cool shoes which I bought in NZ a few months back. So I had to get a uniform pass for that..
My friend Nicole gave me this bag of chocolate as a present so I can see myself gaining a lot of fats and decaying teeth in the coming weeks...

Skip forward to lunchtime, I change and head off to sign out. Got a few "WTH" looks since I was full not in uniform but whatever. Went to buy a meat pie for lunch and headed off to the exam hall really far away from my school. Apparently traveling there wasn't so hard and was surprisingly quick so I was 1 and a half hours early. (I did stop to ask some shopowner where the tram stop is. Looked like I was in a solo Amazing Race cause I had the whole haversack thing going)

Wait around for a bit and finally got called in. Registered for the exam and then just went ahead to do it. That exam was actually quite enjoyable. There was not any stress like the usual written exams and was really just like a conversation with friends. I don't even know WHY I was so stressed out before and spent so much time preparing. I had to make so much stuff up on the spot it's not even funny.

Anyway, the 15 minutes went by VERY quickly and before I knew it, it was over and I was done with that. The feeling then was just amazing. Decided to go into the city to meet with Zoe and managed to get there by taking a random tram, bus and the help of 2 very nice ladies.
Waited around and chatted with Zoe for a bit, exchange presents and went to meet up with QC, her boyfriend and Joey at Miyako (A really nice Teppanyaki restaurant)
Had an AMAZING dinner which Zoe insisted on paying for :(

Went to get gelato for desert and Zoe ninja'ed the bill... AGAIN! Later got joined by K and Mitchell and we had a good laugh. QC and her boyfriend had to go and then K invited us up to his place in the Eureka Tower. (Google it for those who don't know)
The place is amazing. View is fantastic. Here's a little bit of proof I was up there
Not the best picture but you get the idea

Hung around a bit, chatted, played Super Smash Bros Brawl on Wii and left at about 11.30. Got a ride from Joey and reached home about 12.30. Didn't get to bed till like 1.30 and I had to get up at 7 the next morning. I think that was a school night well spent :p

And that's my really quick and crappy summary of my birthday. I checked Facebook before going to bed and had like... 50 birthday wishes which I had personally thanked each person who posted today.

Now I have to start preparing for the important WRITTEN exams. At least it's somethign I'm used to.. haha

That's it for now. I do apologize for the crappy post but hey, I'm making effort to update here :)

Passing time..

2010-10-10T11:35:00.003+08:00

I'm on a roll man! haha

Dunno why, the blogger in me really came to life yesterday so here I am again.

I do apologize for the last emo-ish post. Just felt like it.

As I said.. I do have an oral exam tomorrow but I really don't know how to prepare anymore. I tried memorising stuff but because of the way examiners can ask you questions, there's no point reading a "script"

Maybe I should have gone to hang out with friends in the city today instead of moping around in the house... But that wouldn't be a smart choice considering I have an exam tomorrow. Not that I'm completing a whole lot now. I am going around in circles here...

I think it's safe to say preparing for written exams are MUCH MUCH more easier...
I cannot wait to get the exam over and done with. It's on the same day as two awesome people's birthday ;P Going out for dinner with a few people after the exam to celebrate for them.

Going out at night on a school night is actually a bad idea but oh well... My exam is near the city anyway so might as well. Did I mention I need to travel about 2 hours just to sit for that 15 minutes of Oral Exam? yeah.

Meh.. I guess I'll go read up a few more dot points. After that it's off for a ride to Subway to buy dinner. muahahaha :)

That's all for now. Till the next post

HAPPY 10/10/10!!! hahaha

When you realize..

2010-10-09T18:43:00.004+08:00

Took this on the way home from school a few months back.
Just to change things a little and have a fresh start... :)

Wow... It's been a long time. Never thought I would actually start this again,
Blogging feels like a completely off thing for me now. Guess that's what happens when you stop for a bit.

So what exactly spurred me to start again? I don't know. I just have this urge to start again after reading posts by friends about exams, SPM and life in general.

And here I am.

It's actually gotten so hard to blog now, I am at a blank about what to actually talk about in this post. Covering everything that has happened is pretty tough to do without boring the crap out of the reader so I'm not gonna attempt that.
~~Guess I will just go on a random ramble...~~

Actually scratch that, I just remembered why I actually felt like writing a post. Ignore everything I said up there :P

Reading Julia's post just sorta made me feel pretty... ah, how do I say this, off. It's so depressing.
Guess sitting for SPM just makes you feel that way huh? Pretty sure I would feel the same if I was doing it.

I miss actually cramming for exams after exams. Don't get me wrong, exams are still terrible but it's just that I used to cram so much especially with friends it's sorta become a memory for me. Funny huh? Cramming for exams was fun for me. Bet I wouldn't feel that way if I had to do it now haha

Reading that post led me to think about that and then about how I said I will update my blog regularly to keep in touch with friends back home. Clearly I didn't so I thought I really should make the effort.

I actually haven't been talking to you guys back in Malaysia for an eternity, and even if I did, it's usually just for a short while or on boring topics. I miss the days when I go to school and always there is a random topic we laugh about. I'm happy with friends I have here but in all honesty, friends are irreplaceable, no matter how many you make.

This is becoming really depressing. I blame you Julia. It's your fault with the depressing post. Let's channel some positive energy into this post.

There's always a good side to everything. I mean, after being away from friends and family for so long, I have really treasured each and every person I meet now. So to all you SPM people out there, keep your eyes set on after SPM!!! One thing I learned when I came here, we should always keep things in perspective. Remember that SPM is only a small part of your life. Sure if you don't get good results you are allowed to feel down for a bit, but there are a lot more opportunities out there and SPM would soon be nothing in your whole life.

Anyway, enough about all these things.
About me being here, there has been up and downs but recently (actually just today) it's been going good. Why?

I actually have an Oral Exam on Monday which I have been stressing about. Today, we had a practice run of it and I found out it really wasn't too big of a deal. Just really had to take it like it was a normal conversation. That just made my day and it turned out so very productive. Did so many things today because that started my day off positively!

So... Moral of the story? Start the day positively and keep at it!

I have been starting to watch stuff like X-Factor and Amazing Race now. AR only cause KevJumba's in it haha
Speaking of KevJumba, I am having mad respect for Wong Fu Productions right now. I don't know how but their vids seem to give me motivation... Weird.....

Yeh.. That's all for now. Till next time

Where to begin?

2010-04-30T19:07:00.002+08:00

Oh wow, It's been ages. How is everyone?

I just read Syaza's latest post and it actually really made me want to blog again.
It's so nice to hear this tale about their last Sports and Prefect Camp.
I guess I will give blogging a shot again...

Just a little recap, I came back to Melbourne back in late Jan/early Feb. Spent an AMAZING time back in Malaysia. Ate heaps and gained weight but so worth it.

The best part was obviously hanging out with family and friends. Especially friends. I actually feel a little bad for dragging people out so much :P
Of course, no point dwelling in the past so I'm looking forward to doing all these things again end of this year and hopefully more since most of you guys will be done with SPM hmm?

Speaking of friends, I found a few good ones here! Can't replace anyone I know back in Malaysia of course but they're still pretty good buddies. It's funny how I've got a group who are just outside of school and a group with school friends.
I'm glad I stumbled across these guys. Made life here so much more interesting.

Had to give a speech to the Year 7-10s the other day. It was ok I guess. It's a little weird being the only asian up there speaking but hey.. Only those who adapt will survive! haha

A few weeks back, I went to my friend, Marcus' 21st party. The people there were all amazing.
We were slightly late because it was quite far off and I got a lift from Joey with 2 other people Cam and Tiffany. Joey came to my place to pick me up and we printed a map off Google Maps which was not very helpful so we spent some time looking for the place.

Just a little background for you guys, the party is at a place called Broadmeadows and people get stabbed there. So we were like... let's find the place...FAST! haha
Anyway, chatted a bit. There was alcohol but being the good little kid I am, I stayed away from them.. heh. There was a jukebox there so we were selecting songs and stuff. There was a button to skip songs which people abused....a lot.

A few good songs came up and I actually danced for the first time. Yes... go on... laugh! I'm not much of an expressing person but hey... It was a party and there was good music so off I went. I didn't dance that much though so I think I was somewhat reserved :P

Food came out after a bit and they were so good. But I don't know why I didn't pig out on them. I regretted it later but yea... Also, there were 3 different kind of cakes and again, I didn't pig out so bah... More regrets!

We stayed till like...2 am and then followed Joey back. We had to drop off another friend first then dropped off Cam at another friend (Zoe)'s place. I should have mentioned that the next day (ie the "day" we left)was the State Championship for PTCG so we thought of going to Joey's house then head straight to the tourney next day. We got to his place around 4.30 am and then sat around drinking some hot drinks and chatting. We got too tired and went to bed for a bit. Got up again at 7.30 ish and left for the city at 8. Joey had to return the car (Yes he rented) and we trammed to the city for PANCAKES! Was so good :D

I did pretty badly in the tournament. Made a wrong choice and blew the whole thing. Got home at 8 pm ish.. Dinner, shower and straight to bed at 10. It was school the next day. yea.. pretty bad! haha

I then went to another party last Saturday. Alyssa's 16th. It was supposed to be a dress up thing but I couldn't be bothered doing that. I was going to wear the Konoha Forehead Protector and go all " I'MA ASIAN NINJA!!!" but yea.. Didn't like it so scrapped the idea.

I was one of the first few people to arrive with a few other friends (Ellen, Jarrod, Tim) and a few other people. The DJ was late so there was no music. We pigged out on Barbecue chips and the DJ came. Music started playing but it wasn't my kind of music so it was meh
A facepainter came a bit later but again, I couldn't be bothered washing it off after that so I didn't do it as well :P

Alyssa had a Candy floss machine there so we had some super sweet ones which I was pretty much sick of after having two sticks. Quite a few people were dancing. Ellen and I promised Alyssa we would go nuts on the dance floor if Telephone or some other good song played but it didn't play.

We had so much chips after a while Ellen and I decided we HAVE to get on the dance floor to burn off the calories... And that's when it began..

"Sexy Bi***" came on and it was a pretty good song to dance to so Ellen and I got moving (Tim and Jarrod weren't that into the dancing... haha). As the song started to fade out... the remixed version of "Telephone" came on and we just exploded and danced our heart out. I don't know if I would have been considered dancing but I was just making heaps of random movements there and apparently it was dancing so I stuck to it. We continued on for the next five songs and took a break to get some pizza.

The rest of the night was pretty much just jumping onto the dance floor when a good song came out and going outside when it was a bad song or we were tired. At around 11.45pm the party was about to finish so I just went all out. One of Alyssa's favorite song "Bangkok" came on so everyone was just there dancing. The DJ played one final song as "Bangkok" faded out and the words...

"Hello, Hello Baby"

came on. Ellen and I were just like "HELL YEA! BEST. SONG. EVER to end the great party"
Needless to say it was good. Went home around 12.10 am. Jumped on Facebook and posted how good the party was. A lot of the other people at the party were doing the same so it was just funny how everyone posted about it as it finished.

My voice was pretty much gone from all the "singing" and shouting over the blaring music and my legs were aching from moving so much along with being terribly sweaty with the dance floor being unbelievably stuffy. Went for a quick shower and couldn't sleep till around 1.20. Thank goodness it was Sunday the next day and Monday was a public holiday. People were still sore on Tuesday but I pretty much recovered by Monday. lol

So yea.. Just a little read on the parties here. It's definitely not something I have experienced before in Malaysia. We should do it somehow.

I apologize as usual for the lack of pictures since you guys know I'm not the kind to take pictures haha. There are some bad ones of me on Facebook so go look there! lol
I really have to start blogging more. My blogging sucks!

Revived with a cause!

HELLLLOOOOO EVERYONE!
This is gonna be a long post since I am gonna blog then start off with Project January so...hang in there! haha

I finally decide to blog again. I would actually be doing other stuff now but since my internet connection is being retarded... I had to resort to blogging.

I think you all should realize that I am the kind of person who cannot be bothered to update about my life in the 2 months that has passed so I'm not even gonna try. I shall just do simple 'ringkasan'.
Oh and for the record, I actually resolved to start blogging again now so that I know how it felt like to be young when I grow old next time (Like Syaza's reason for a blog)

Also.. I feel like I need to take more pics now because I went to this wedding dinner a few weeks back and they were showing slideshows of the bride and groom when they were young, with friends and family. I will tell you now. My computer has absolutely no memorable photos of me with my family or friends. I blame my habit of not liking to take pictures and the fact that my camera is retarded (It changes to video mode everytime you are trying to take a pic)

Anyway, basically I finished school, went for this program at the University of Melbourne which goes on for 3 years(Where everyone who joined, about 700, where all Marissa and Sanesh types-smart. And I was like..the odd one out :/) Came back to Malaysia on the 12/12/2009.

Coming back was awesome if not for the fact that my plane was delayed for FOUR FREAKING HOURS! We were about to take off and the engine wouldn't start. So they were fixing the plane and we weren't allowed to get off. At least the engine didn't stop while we were flying of course....

I visited family and then got together with Syaza, Julia, Aqilah and Aifa. It was such a great way to start off my holidays back here. Happy Days anyone?? xD
All the random talks and laughters, I miss those form 2+3 years. Mooched at Sanesh's place on Christmas eve (as usual) and also on New Year's eve. And then was on Skype with Aifa, Syaza, Sanesh, Julia, Aqilah, Deion, and Pang from 11 (New year's eve) all the way to 2 am. What a great way to celebrate the new decade! haha Then there was that day at OU and the horrible Kitschen experience for Sanesh and I.

I don't feel like searching my memory for other stuff so I'll just leave the past here. And focus on updating this blog more regularly.

Yesterday I went to meet one of my primary school friends who moved to Singapore at OU. I thought it would be nice to see everyone from that school again so I invited like 30 other people on Facebook. 21 people put Maybe Attending. Only 2 of them came. So 4 of us spent the time in OU. Very disappointing. Watched Old Dogs which was actually a pretty funny movie and spent time in the arcade. Was good to see those 3 :)

This friend of mine from Singapore went holidaying in Vietnam and her dad is friends with Brenda Wong's dad so they met. Small world huh?

I only have another 13 days to be lazy back here and then it's bac to Melbourne....and studies.
It's annoying. Oh yea...

With all the time spent with Aqilah and Aifa, who have gone Korean crazy all of a sudden, I got pulled in too and started listening to Korean stuff. Some of the songs are really good. And the dances are pro! With a few videos being....lulz. (I'm sure a few Aqilah and the rest of the group would know which one I mean.hehe)

So yea... I am gonna start over so I can't be bothered talking about the past anymore. And Aqilah and Brenda gave me a good jolt to start blogging again.

===========================================================
DAY 1- Your Favorite Song.

My favorite song now has to be this

It's kinda old and Aqilah and co. have been pestering me to listen to this and I did... And boy it's good. So catchy! These 2 are good bands! Yes..it's Korean! lol

DAY 2- Your Favorite Movie.

Hmm... I'm not too crazy about movies but Avatar is a good show. Really good.
I'm not much of a movie person. I just watch it with friends or family. Or if I'm like really bored.
I prefer TVB Cantonese drama series xD
Maybe it's because it goes for like a few episodes and I grew up watching them (Parents, especially mum loves them) so it's kinda like a childhood obsession? haha

DAY 3- Your Favorite Television Program.

Hohoho...Where do I start?! There's heaps! As I said, I enjoy TVB drama series and they ARE technically on TV in HongKong so....xD
There's Moonlight Resonance, D.I.E, D.I.E Again and many others. I can't remember their English titles.

Not to mention all the wonderful cartoon programs which technically...is on television as well.
Spongebob! Fairly OddParents! The Suite Life of Zack and Cody! Suite Life on Deck! and I might as well admit I liked That's So Raven! as well xD

Sadly my parents unsubscribed to the cartoon channels cause nobody watches them since I'm stuck in Aussie, I can't relive my childhood days xD
Not to mention they canceled MTV and channel [V] as well T_T
But yea...Cartoons :)

DAY 4- Your Favorite Book.

Not really a book person. My parents keep badgering me about it. I used read all these Adventure books when I was young. Books like the Hardy Boys and Famous Five. I also used to read this series by Enid Blyton. The Adventure series. Started off with The Island of Adventure and ended with The River of Adventure. 8 books in all. I have them all. I took them out to have a read again. Still enjoyable after all these years even if it is a little kiddy.

The seventh book in the series xD

I like the Harry Potter books as well but the Half Blood Prince was really...meh
Probably liked the Order of Phoenix the most. haha

DAY 5- Your Favorite Quote.

I got two quotes which inspires me but I always fail to do it :( I gotta get myself a little bit more focused..hehe

"A quitter never wins, a winner never quits."
-???

"When you fear you hesitate, and when you hesitate, all your worst fears come true."
-???

I honestly have no idea who made those quotes but I like them. I forgot where I found the first quote but I got the second one in school during a talk.

DAY 6- Whatever Tickles Your Fancy.

Erm...Whatever tickles my fancy eh? I think I shall skip this. Technically I am not skipping this because I can post anything and I posted a wall of text before I mentioned Project January so we'll just take that for this day kay? hehe

DAY 7- A Photo That Makes You Happy.

Wow... This is tough. Again.. I have so many photos which make me happy.
Like Aqilah.. This photo is good. It's so nice to do random dorky stuff with these people again.
You know..to be honest... Any photo with friends make me happy. It's fun to be with friends :)

Old photos make me happy. I remember a few of me taken with my nanny and her family and also a few of me with my parents. It just makes me feel like wow...How nice those times were. Very easygoing.
Oh and since I can't be bothered scanning them or digging through the albums to find them.. I'll just skip posting them up :P

Day 08 — A photo that makes you angry/sad
Not exactly the photo but seeing the faces of poor old people. I would upload one but it doesn't seem very nice and I can't find good ones (also lazy to).They must have gone through tough times to get to their age and then to get hit with all sorts of illness or being mistreated by their children make me sad :(

I understand that when people get old they can be a bit troublesome since they constantly need help but I just can't understand why people leave their poor parents in old folk's homes or just take their anger out on them when they are stressed with work. I understand if they are too busy but there are those who just leave them in the home and NEVER visit them again until something happens. So sad...

Maybe I'm jsut being over-emotional but I always respected old people. Their look so frail but must have gone through alot at their age. I should make the effort to go to old folk's homes next time as a charity benefit. Just visit them.

Day 09-A photo you took

Hee hee~~~

At Comic Fiesta '09. I was nagged by them for taking this horrible photo. I had stuff to carry that time ok! And Syaza's camera didn't like me... And my hands were shaky.....just a little!
I have improved mah skillz though so it's no big deal anymore..hehe ;P

Day 10 — A photo of you taken over ten years ago

Erm...I don't have photos on my computer which are over 10 years ago. It's 12 am and I don't feel like rummaging through my photos so I think I might have to pass this. It DOES mean I am not completing Project January properly though and I can't do that.. So I will have to edit this laters!

Phew! Done with the first 10 days! well...9.5 days anyway.. Just one picture missing..hehe
So yea. I will try to update everyday with Project January. Goodnight all!

2009-12-11T19:26:00.001+08:00

Y'know what. I was going to make this a nice update cause plenty of things happened but I have to cut it short cause some last minute thing came up.
I promise I will do a proper update soon. Expect a good one :)

Epitome of Miracles

2009-11-02T18:43:00.002+08:00

UPDATE~!!!
Done :D

Just kidding.. I'd probably be verbally slaughtered if I really did that...
I think I have forgotten how to blog considering how many weeks i have not blogged...
Not to mention me constantly procrastinating my blog and now I can't remember things that have happened... Let's see...(Oh snap! I just realised I never blogged for almost TWO months :O)

September..September...eh...
and October..hmm...October...errrrrr....

Ok.. Stuff it.. I can't remember most of the things I did so I'll just do those I do.
Basically it's just life.. routines and whatnot...

I guess it's safe to say this now. At the end of September, it was my school holidays. And a little after that my uncle and his whole family went back to Malaysia. Leaving me alone in the house
The frist few days was just plain miserable... It was so quiet cuz the house is pretty big.. but after like 3 nights.. I got used to it and loved it. Didn't have to worry much about cooking cuz there were like heaps of frozen food which my aunt prepared before leaving so I just had those..lol

It's kinda fun to live alone. I occasionally cooked fried rice so that was fun. And nice :D
Plenty of NDS games came out during this time as well so I had fun downloading since i didn't have to share download limit.

I really should be studying right now..ergh...
Lucky I have holiday tomorrow. Can study more.

What else was there... Oh yea.. Birthday.
Spent my birthday alone in the house. How lol is that?
Luckily still got to go out with a few friends so it wasn't too bad. One of my friends, Zoe even got me like..FIVE boxes of Oreo Cakesters from the US of A. That's like...60 pieces!

Oh and this funny thing happened to 2 of my friends and I on the train towards to city. It was mine and Zoe's birthday (she turns 20! lol) and we were heading down to meet a few other people with Jacob. We were talking about stuff and our birthday on the train and this alcoholic drunk called out to us. He was sitting a few seats away and went like..

"Firstly, Happy Birthday to you two. Enjoy every minute of your life and do anything you want. Except turn gay." Then he went on about how his life was and how he got a slash on his head from his 18th birthday. He also spoke so softly it was hard to hear. He had this really big bottle of beer in his hand so we didn't dare to just ignore him. Thank god our stop was like 5 minutes away.

So yea... Played a bit of PTCG and then went to Subway for dinner. And that was basically my birthday. I came 3rd in the tournament so I was pretty content with it :)

Erm.. I have been frying Fried Rice every weekend when I was alone. I think I'm getting good at it..lol
Begin home alone was just a pretty cool experience I guess. At least I'll know how it'll be like next time..haha..sorta anyway since there won't be like frozen food next time :/

Oh yes... When I was home alone, I was rushing one morning to catch the bus cuz I woke up a little late and the weather was bad so I didn't want to ride. Anyway, I was rushing out of the house and I left my keys hanging in the door...
I only realised that when I was like halfway to school.. I immediately called my aunty's friend and hoped that she could keep it for safekeeping. Thank god it was still there when she arrived..
Yea.. REMEMBER TO ALWAYS CHECK FOR YOUR KEYS!!!!

Dang... What else is there to blog about..
Meh.. too bad guys.. those 2 months will have to be blank in this blog cuz I can't think of anything. So I'll just blog about what is going to happen and stuff...

My uncle and all are back for a week only. Felt like forever..haha
I got exams next week and I am NOT excited for them.
In English, we cannot bring our Romeo and Juliet text in so we gotta MEMORIZE quotes from the play to put into the essay. We don't even know the topic so we could be memorizing useless quotes...

And Maths is terribad... I don't like all the different Calculus questions we have.. Find the normal/line perpendicular to f(x) at points etc...
ARGH!

Can't wait to get it all over and done with...
I'll just leave this as it is cuz I cannot remember what else to blog about but I promise to keep updates more consistent so posts like this don't happen again. Thank god it's holiday tomorrow.

Now here are some random pics and a video I DEMAND you all to watch (Thx Syaza for recommending ages ago)

Blackpepper and mint Kangaroo skewers with rice
Steamed dumplings
Homemade Pizza :D
Lamb Curry with yogurt and a serving or rice and papadam.

And of course.. the vid. It's an AWESOMELY cute one.. WATCH IT!

Here's to a Puas Puas!

2009-08-29T20:47:00.004+08:00

I should really be doing my homework so I don't get swamped but homework's NOT important right?? heheh............
Ok.. better make this quick but long

Last Thrusday was Creating Conversation Night. It was for Health class and at 7 pm.
I couldn't be bothered going home since I get home at like 4.15 and I gotta leave for school again at 6pm so I just stayed in school. Helped my teacher set up a bit and got a few Candies and Gummies to snack on (We had biscuits,candies and cakes on the night so we just sorta had a few candies while setting up).

Since it gets dark at like 6 here, and the school doesn't turn on corridor lights unless in used, the whole school (the inside anyway) was kinda dark. haha
I want to take a few pics but my digi cam was out of battery and my phone does not have flash so it was just all black. Maybe I should have gone around school while it was still bright to snap pics to put up here... oh well xD

I'm not gonna go into details about the night cuz basically we were just doing the activites we have practiced before and shared our thoughts on Drugs and Alcohol. I was the emcee (Just Saying xD)

The thing finished around 8.25 pm-ish... I helped again to clean up and my teacher let me pack like...4 slices of cake home. SCORE!
My aunt came to pick me up at 9. On my way out of school, I just snapped these pics cuz I thought it was cool to be in school at night.. lol

The new buildings of my school. There's like this whole part more at the back and to the right
Yea... More classes when you head into the darkness..OoooooHHHH.

Front of the school. The old building. Yes we still use it.

And that's Thursday. On Friday our Health teachers (there are 2 different Health class so we had 2 Creating Conversation Nights that time) treated us to a "Healthy" lunch of Pizza, Leftover cakes and candies. Oh it was good... I think I had like 4 slices of pizza with a huge slice of choc banana cake. FAT!

And yesterday..... I GOT A TASTE OF MALAYSIA AGAIN!!!
Met up with Yee Ling who was here on hols :D
I left early from my Chinese class to go meet up with Yee Ling, her brother and her cousin.
Yee Ling's dad actually invited me to have lunch with them and another friends. I was like..er.. Are you sure? I'm like so sesat and they were going oh it's ok. So I accepted lol

I feel bad though cuz was supposed to meet them at 12.45 but the stupid bus was late which made me miss the train which made me late. Grrr
So I met Yee Ling and her bro and her cousin outside the station. Go ask YeeLing urself what she thought when we first saw each other. hahahaha

It was so "weird" to hear the thick Malaysian accent with the "la" and the other stuff we use haha. Had lunch at a Chinese Dim Sum Restaurant. It was so gooooooooooooood cuz I haven't had that for the past 7 months :D
THANKS YEE LING'S DAD!

We sat around eating and chatting for like an hour and a half then Yee Ling and I headed off.
Yee Ling wanted to go to a place called Smith Street where they have a lot of sport stores and this is the embarrassing part... I had no idea how to get there. HAHAHAHA

Thanks to Yee Ling's cousin, we foudn out which trams to take and how to get there. Even Yee Ling herself knew which tram to take but didn't know where to get the tram.
I don't use the tram much and hardly walk around the city so I was so clueless. Some host I was xD

We walked around, joked and just chilled (lol?). At 4.30 we headed to a very cool place to have tea. Mind you we just finished lunch at 2.30 pm so it wasn't very healthy to eat that much but Yee Ling and I were like.. Aiya.. ok la.. we've been walking so much.

You wanna know where we ate? Sure! It was recommended by Yee Ling's bro and cousin. It a place where all they sell is chocolate related. Lemme list out the stuff they recommended us to try

Tutti Frutti Choc Waffles
Choc Fondue
Choc Banana Pizza
Suckao (Where you like create ur own choc drink)
Choc Crabs
Iced Peanut Butter something Choc
Belgian Choc with Waffle Balls

Yea... We saw the menu there and were like.. yea.. No way we could have afford it all and definitely wouldn't have been able to finish it. We ended up getting a drink each and a Choc Banana Pizza. I got Choc Mint cuz I just love it while Yee Ling had a dilemma choosing between the Choc with Waffle Balls and American something (Had Marshmallows in there) but she decided to try the waffle ball one.

We saw this other table order the fondue and it looked so good. Marshmallow and bananas to dip in melted choc. Anyway ours came and here's how it looked like

The two drinks. I tell you. IT.WAS.GOOD!

The pizza :D We had 4 slices each. Guilty pleasures!
We had to split the bill cuz I definitely couldn't afford to treat her to that meal even if I should have. I technically did cuz I covered the tax bit but you guys should know It's hard fo rme to get money too considering I'm just a student lol
Just to mention it...The Pizza was like 14 AUD. Which is like... RM 42

It was so damn worth it though :DDDDD

I walked Yee Ling back to her apartment and headed to the station to go home. When I was there, the escalator down wasn't working and this old guy with a walking cane and a trolley bag was trying to get down and no one offered to help him :(

I just had to help and felt so good that I did :D
This other man saw what I did and came to applaud me. I was like.. yeap! Good deed done for the day!
It was an awesome day. When are the rest of you coming to visit?
Ok.. that's all... I have been at home the whole day today and hardly got any work done..pfft...

Camwhore attempt 1

Attempt 2.

Cya!

AHAHAHAHAHAHA

2009-08-23T20:00:00.003+08:00

2009-08-15T16:48:00.005+08:00

CHI~~~~~~

HI PEOPLE! I'm back! Bet the suspense was killing you huh?? No..? Oh..erm....this is awkward...

Was looking for this week's Naruto Chapter but they don't have it cuz apparently there was no issue of it being published this week..pfft
so I was randomly searching other Mangas and came across Chi's Sweet Home.

I went.. Hang On.. Didn't Syaza and Lis tell me about this LAST year?? I guess I'll give it a read
And I finished 78 Chapters in 24 hours xD
It's CHO KEUUTTTEEEE!!! Looks good? Made that in Food last week. It's called Risotto. Real easy to make
Making Lemon Meringue Pie next week.

Hmm...what else has been going on....erm....
Can't wait for September. So many good games coming out for the DS!

Ok..I am out of topics. This is what happens when nothing happens...When no events lined up...
Grrr

EDIT: I JUST REMEMBERED SOMETHING!

In Health class, we have this program called Creating Conversations where parents are given the opportunity to talk with the kids about drugs an alcohol. It's in 2 weeks time and I'm the emcee for it :D

and then the other day in Health class, our teacher brought us these goggles to try on. Apparently they're worth like a few hundred Aussi Dollars :O

These goggles are to simulate how it's like to be drunk at different levels of BAC (Blood Alcohol Concentration)

I really wonder how these drunk people walk and see. seriously.. Not fun at all.. everything has like multiple copies. And when you think ur walkign straight...ur walking horizontal.
It was quite interesting...and mind you.. i have no intentions of getting drunk anytime soon!

We had shoot a few bballs, drive a RC car in a straight line and go through an obstacle course with the glasses on. Pretty weird.

K...that's all

This is serious :(

2009-08-10T20:20:00.003+08:00

I FREAKING GAINED AN EXTRA 1.5 KG!!!!!
WTH!!!!!!!!!!

Time to cut down on those snacks and get more exercise.. TO THE DIETS!!!

On the side note, I will not leave my blog for death. Will update this weekend or when I lose the

Whichever comes last

you can bet it's the weight loss part xD

I think I plain old miss home. I thought I would be able to start over but after today's Skype, I realise everything going on in Malaysia still has an impact on me.
Please don't stop talking to me :(

Miss you all....

P/S Aifa, I am definitely going to school in the morning to listen to your briefing when I get home ;)

Aurum potestas est

2009-06-29T20:22:00.005+08:00

Title= Gold is Power!

Started the Artemis Fowl series cuz it's my school holidays and now I've got 2 weeks of doing nothing :D The series is pretty good but it looks kiddy cuz of the big-ish writing it has...

Nothing much has happened since my last update. Just went back to school and started new subjects.

Media studies
Food for the Future
Health Ed,

Media studies is quite interesting but I am hating my first assignment. I have to DRAW an animation flipbook, can be simple but...... The whole world knows I CANNOT draw to save my life so yea...

Food for the Future is good! We learn about food preservation and distribution while cooking a little. On the last day of school, we baked "Spinach Cheese Parcels". While spinach does nto exactly scream tasty.. it turned out REALLY good...om nom nomWe were in groups and my partner and I made 10 so we got 5 each. I ate one before this pic... It was way too tempting.. Should have take a photo when it came out of the oven *drools*

and Health Ed. is lol. We haven't done much yet but it's basically looking and aspecs of health and a little of Sex Ed. We actually got a YOUNG teacher whose name is Ms. Della Fortuna. Nice name huh?

Right... So that was before hols... It's the holidays now and I just sit in front of the computer and ROT! It doesn't even seem fun to be online anymore >.>
I have loads of work to get to but y'know.. procrastination...yup

I have to watch this 1960's film called "Psycho" for English. So annoying..can't seem to find it anywhere. Yes, it is in black and white -_-"

Oh I almost forgot! I got a HORRIBLE teacher for my Maths Methods class now. Cuz my old class clashed with my timetable, I have to change class. This teacher DOES NOT teach....AT ALL! He just goes in class and goes "ok.. we have to finish chp. 6.4 today" and we have to get to work while he goes on his laptop. He wanted to show us something on his laptop and connected it to the projector, and y'know what he was mainly doing instead of teaching??

GOING ON E-BAY!!!!!

LIKE WTF?! Teach goddamit! So annoying...dahlah we doing Calculus now and limit theorems aren't the simplest things in the world.. One of the reasons I keep procrastinating my maths work now...Way too difficult!

*Takes deep breath* OK...

I went to have my haircut yesterday. Wasn't excited about it cuz I have not had a haircut in Aussie yet. The last haircut was in NZ in March :P
So I went into a random Asian saloon cuz I thought Asians would probably be more familiar with Asian hair... I felt kinda weird in there cuz they displayed outside the shop that it was a unisex saloon and when I went in, it was mostly pink and walls were plastered with girl hairstyles and waxing promos. Yes.. the saloon did waxing as well >.>

The only guy related thing there was just this sad A4-ish picture of a guy. I felt better when another guy came in for a haircut as well. I had to wait some time because this lady was being all fussy about her hair and telling the stylist how she wanted it and asked for more mousse and hairspray. I think she was like 40+ and used about half a can of hairspray >.>

Then in the end, she had to pay. The prices were clear. 15 for a haircut, 5 to wash and 5 to dry and style. She insisted on paying only 20 because she only cut and washed. Then she was going on and on and on about how she only paid 20 the last time and that it was not worth it to get her hair done there since she had to come all the way from the city. I muttered "Why don't you just cut your hair int he city then" and the stylist laughed and repeated the thing to her. I don't think that lady heard it cuz she was like almost out the store.

As to how my haircut turned out... you be the judge :D Excuse the noob images cuz you know I don't take pics!

Before...After...

I think my hair is still long in Malaysian standards
Dang...I think I should really go do my work now...
Or I'll just wait till after lunch xD

Adios!

You Belong With Me!

Hello everyone! I am still alive!

I had an awesome week. We have this government program here called Work Experience where you actually get to miss 1 week of school and go experience to working world! I had mine in a restaurant as kitchen help. Lemme run through the past 5 days with ya...

DAY 1
-------------
So I got up, feeling extremely nervous. When I went in, I was brought to the change room and stuffed my bad and jumper there. Then I started with simple jobs. Peeling carrots and onions. I was glad the staff there were like all UBER friendly and helpful. There was also another girl from my school working there but she cut her left thumb slicing bacon that morning. Bad Luck D:
Anyway, I finished up the peeling and then was given my next job, slicing THREE friggin sacks of bread for garlic bread. I think I must have sliced over 100... Then I had to butter ALL of them as well, and it wasn't that simple cuz it was sliced into 6 sections and they weren't completely sliced so the customers can peel them of themselves when they wanted to but luckily Fione (the other girl) had to butter as well.. phew!
Then it was lunch! Lunch was good! Given lemonade and a small pizza all to myself :D
The "small" pizza was probably the siza of a medium pizza at Pizza Hut minus 1 slice. Then back to work. Was given the task of crumbing meat, y'know covering them in flour,egg yolk and breadcrumbs? It was messy but fun. Then Fiona and I worked together to get those garlic bread wrapped up in foil.
END DAY 1

DAY 2
-----------
I started off with making salads. 60 bowls to be exact. One of the guys there said I was slow and have to hurry up. I did. Then I had to go cut tomatoes. While I was happily cutting away, I accidenally scraped my left thumb on the knife :/ It bled like the nobody's business but luckily it wasn't too deep and they had experience with cuts so they bandaged it up nicely. After all that, I finished up the tomatoes being EXTRA carefula nd then proceeded to washing oysters.150 of them. It wasn't exactly nice cuz had to wash them in ice water and they were slimy. It was messy. Then washed some lettuce and spin dry them in this bucket thing. Had Fish n Chips for lunch and then stuffed some cream puffs. Since we were packaging them in fours, there was one leftover and I was allowed to have it!
*Confession* I guessed this would happen so I overstuffed that last one with cream :P
Then made some batter for fish and wrapped up some bread for storage/freezing.
END DAY 2

DAY 3
------------
A different group of people were int he kitchen today. They work shifts :o
Anyway, Started off by cutting some veges, quite a lot actually. Then it was hella fun! I had to seperate 49 eggs for their egg yolk to make CHOCOLATE MOUSSE!!! Luckily I had gloves on so I played the yolk around in my hands to let all the egg white drip down :p That was really fun!
After that had to grab the other ingredients for the mousse. We needed 1.6 kg of chocolate :O
I snuck a small piece into my mouth after getting what I needed, they had a whole box there so I fugred it wouldn't matter :P
While the water was boiling, chocolate was melting and cream was being whipped and left aside, I had lunch. Got to choose my own topping for pizza agin today. I pigged out on the toppings! Pepperoni + ham + bacon + pineapples+ onions + BBQ sauce + lots of cheese :D
After lunch ahd to mix all the stuff together. I tell you.. mixing in chocolate with whipped cream and egg yolk was tough.. it's like one of them was to thick and heavy and the other was light and fluffy... Then filled them out into cups and again, there were a little leftover sooooo.... :p
Finished off the day by sorting out meat based on weight into containers.
END DAY 3

DAY 4
----------
Today was a slightly more boring day. Started off by making salads again but this time only 35 bowls :D Sliced more vege after that and packaged a few stuff for take-away. All that took up the whole morning -_-" Had a club sandwich for lunch= Toast+ Chicken+ Bacon+ Mayo+ Cheese + Fries. Yum! Then had to marinate some BBQ Ribs. They smelled HEAVENLY! Wish I could have had some :P Finished of the rest of the day by slicing this huge box of mushrooms and sort out more cooked veges for take aways.
END DAY 4

DAY 5
---------
Which is today. Felt kinda sad really.. I really enjoyed working as kitchen help! So I started off today by slicing Foccacias (type of bread) in half and spreading on butter on all 40 of them.. both sides I might add! Then filled them in with different ingredients since there were 4 types of Foccacia subs to be made. After that left them aside to be toasted and had to package some "Red Wine Butter" into sausage like packages. Then I had to grab some smoked salmon and roll them up into "Salmon Roses". They look real cool :D After that, help put away the toasted Foccacias which were sliced by my "mentor" for the lunch rush. There were extras so I got to eat on the job...again! Had to peel 4 whole chicken after that. The way I was tearing it apart made me feel sad fo rit, luckily it was already cooked! Then seperated the peeled meet into containers based on weight again. Lunch break here of Chicken Schnitzel and Fries with Hot chocolate :D
Proceeded to pick Mint leaves and Parsley and cut strawberries in half. My teacher came to visit and check up on things at this point. It was my Physical Science teacher and I found out I got an A for it! Score! Then it went by rather dully by filling up bottles with sauces.
I also got this container of fries and 2 cupcakes to bring home.. They were nice!
END DAY 5
----------------

So yea... there are my work experience days. My thumb is a lot better now and I should probably leave the bandage off since it's all dried up cuz it looked like this when I wanted to change the bandage
Yea... wrinkly!
The downside of this work experience is the amount of work I have to catch up with. Sure I have all my Yr 10 classes off but Yr 11 classes are still running so *adds math homework to weekend chores*. The worst part is that we are doing.....
CALCULUS!!! I dread it.. Been hearing stuff about this chapter... and I'm not liking it one bit.. Oh noes!
Wuhh??? Thank god I am only missing the beginning parts which are just about rates of change and time graphs.. phew
Oh and another thing about my work experience... We were supposed to ge paid 5 bucks a day but cuz the manager had to leave early today, Fiona and I didn't get paid. I wanted to ask the employees to leave a message for the manager but then I thought "W-ell.. I have been having awesome food here the past few days and they did not HAVE to employ me since they really didn't need the extra help..." So yea.. I was thinking about that for liek a whole hour when I got home...

I only have next week of school till my 2 weeks break where I shall rot in front of my com or read Artemis Fowl books from mah school library!

Oh I should comment that my title is a song by Taylor Swift. The music video is a MUST see!
Taylor looks so cute in the nerd (tak jadi) glasses and hot int he end. You'll see why if you watch it. The song is awesome.. Catchy!
They have the radio on in the kitchen and this song played a few times.. I sang along as I did my work :P Thank god the kitchen is a noisy place...bwahaha

Random :P
Ok.. that's all for now.. Will update more during my 2 weeks break. Ciao ppl!
Cheers!

P/S If anyone wants the recipe for the chocolate mousse I got it!

Haih....

2009-06-10T19:38:00.004+08:00

I feel down for some reason :(

Maybe it's cuz I have to go for Work Experience next week. No more lazing in front of the com and have to go WORK... as a waiter/kitchen help. I'm scared of the working world :/

More on that ceremony thing this Friday, apparently I need to do a short speech in front of everyone about the school's history. Luckily they provide a script and all I gotta do is to read...
Hope I don't screw up...

I FEEL LAZY!!! RAWR

I think I've said this before but I will say it again.. I wanna be able to Kage bunshin...
Could let all those clones do all the work.. I think it's a procrastinator/lazy person's ultimate dream :p

Sadly that will never happen so I better get back to reality...
Gotta start getting back in that working mood tomorrow.. no point feeling crapped up about it..
GAH.. I confuse myself with these feelings of lazy/must do work

I WANT SCRIBBLENAUTS NAO!!

Papa-Paparazzi!

2009-06-09T20:16:00.002+08:00

That's a catchy song. It's by Lady Gaga called Paparazzi. Nice chorus..lol

Aaaaand!!! I AM ALIVE!!!

Yea yea.. I am suppose to update frequently but hey.. cut me some slack.. I got ADD and am very lazy so be thankful I am updating now ;D
w-ell.. One of the reasons is cuz I made a bet with Syaza that if I don't update after my exams I owe her a handbag and me no wanna do that.. Oh noes!

Yes. It has actually been almost 3 months since my last update :D
I am far too lazy to list everything that happened so I shall let those 2 months slid past
I had exams last week. The exam schedule runs for 2 weeks but cuz all my exams are in the first week, I get this week off!!!

Exams was different compared to Msia. I did not get that pressurised/panicky feeling (like during Sejarah) but still got the exam "feeling" la. English was BAD. Needed to write 2 essays which was minimum 500 words each in 90 minutes. I CANNOT write 2 good essays that quickly. I expect a bad mark for it.

Year 10 Maths was ok but my Year 11 Maths (Math Methods a.k.a Add Maths) was horrible too. We get 3 sections. the first 2 section in paper one which was 20 objective questions and 10 subjective and we were allowed a calculator. Sounds easy but we only got 35.. that's right... THIRTHY FIVE minutes to answer them all. And they were all complicated, especially the last few ones which were the most points. And I didn't answer them cuz of no time. And the second paper was 50 mins, No calculator allowed and ahd about 20 questions. Complicated ones as well. I finished just in time. It's a good thing I have been getting good marks throughout the whole semester so this exam won't pull me down too bad... I hope.

Bioscience and Physical Science were both good and Commerce was so-so. And that was my exams. The best part about it was we only had to go to school during the time we had exam. Example my Phys Science was at 1.20 pm so I only went to school aat around 12.45 :p
and we could go home early when we finish too. Lol!

It's horribly cold today. Max temperature was 12 degrees. It is currently 6 degrees and it is raining with strong winds outside. It was even hailing earlier! It is times like these where I wish I was back in Malaysia sweating my ass off!

On the bright side, two rather interesting things happened today. I made my first lasagna :)
From scratch mind you! It was kinda fun and satisfying at the end. It tasted gooooooddddd!!!
And in the middle of cooking, I recieved a letter from my school. Apparently there is this very important ceremony in school this Friday and the Year-Level Coordinators had to choose around 10 students from each eyar to represent int he ceremony and I was invited! I know it's so nerdy and all but it feels great to be known by people especially since I just started this year!!

Oh I have to thanks Syaza's bro Afiq for helping me with two things. two of the buttond on my DS were nto working properly and I told Syaza (cuz we were talking about playing Kingdom Hearts on DS) and her bro told me to try blowing in the sides of the button, I tried it and it worked! It always seems to be the case with handheld stuff, if not working blow it.

And he also told Syaza to teld me about Scribblenauts. You guys HAVE to watch the trailer on YouTube or ign.com . IT's THE EPIC-est GAME EVER!!!

Naturally I missed out on another awesome event back home. A Together Gather. This time it was even wrapped up with a visit to the Sanesh's awesome house. Dang it.. I wanna see everyone again. There HAS to be one when I get back. I don't care. Before school starts. RAWR

Ok.. that's all I'm gonna blog about this time. Going to go play MouseHunt and Ghost Trappers on FaceBook while occasionally checking on my Restaurant City. Make sure you let me know if you guys wanna play these apps so I can invite you and get rewards. Till next time!

PS. I am scared cuz Melbourne was ranked as number 1 place for Swine Flu even though it originated from Mexico =_="

Miss y'all!
Ciao!

Oops??

2009-04-13T18:36:00.002+08:00

Hey guys.. Kinda bad time at the moment..
Will update more soon. I promise >.<
So many people have been updating their blogs. I know I must!
Maybe tomorrow or sometime this week.
I envy you people preparing for Prefect Camp T_T

2009-03-13T15:03:00.007+08:00

Hello peoples!! It's REALLY time for a proper update so here I am....aaand There's pics this time!! not much but still :D
Make sure you actually read the whole thing since I'm taking so much time to type this >:[

I won't go too far back in time so I'll just go to last Tuesday (03/03/2009)
I got this invite to go to the Government House for International Education Week Function thingy. Apparently the place is only open to public ONCE a year so it was quite a privilege I guess... We went with our teacher, Mrs Chaves who is the International Student Coordinator and Assistant Principle. There were 4 other students as well but I'll mention them later.

Mrs Chaves drove us there. I tell you.. It was HORRIBLY and awkwardly quite in the car. Mainly because the 5 of us weren't exactly that close and since 2 of them were Jap, we could only speak English to them and their English wasn't THAT good. I guess it's also my fault since I was kinda reading/doing up a bit of maths in the car as well.
Side Note: I just joined Year 11 Maths that week (Jumped a Grade) so I needed to catch up. :/

Right... So we got there. The Japanese people and one of the China one met a few ppl they know there as the China one went to the same English school as them and the Jap ones were all from the same Student Exchange programme. So yea... we sat down and Mrs Chaves started snapping pics.

From left, Shono (Jap), Yuika (Jap), Sheng Tian (International Student Captian)(China),
Joon Keit (Malaysia), Monica (China)Right up front of the Governer's "Chair"

We sat right behind the VIP people so yea.. kinda cool I guess. There were a few performances then speech by the Governor and Minister of Education. Really short..about an hour the whole thing? Then we were allowed to go explore the Government house (except the bedrooms..xP)
This here is take in the Dining room and the Governer described it as "small"

This was outside. As you can see... The wind was blowing kinda strongly..lol
Anyway, the food there was awesome. It wasn't those banquet buffet stylebut the finger food style at those high class parties and all that where there were people holding a tray and going around asking you if you'd like some. I felt so classy but no.. I did not eat with my pinky out. xD

This was taken in a room. Dunno what room it was but we could go outside JUST by going through windows..>.>. Oh that's the Minister of Education btw. We had a chat with her. It was like really cool being able to talk to someone with so much power..hohoho We also managed to talk to THE Governer himself. I guess that was a nice little bonus.
Had a few bites to eat, hang around the "lawn"( which was huge and had a fountain but I forgot to take a pic...whoops?) and then left at 12.30. Still managed to get back to school in time right after Lunch period to go to class..lol

So that was Tuesday. Every other day after that was boring since I was catching up with Maths work.But on Saturday, we went to the City with my Grandfather (he was here for holiday and it was his last day here) to see this exhibition. It was pretty cool. There were stuff about Aussie in the olden days, animal bones..the human mind... A "rain forest" and a few other stuff. Then we went to this carnival/fair thing at night which started at like 7 till midnight.
Had all sorts of crazy rides and games but I didn't join cuz it was hella expensive. Then there was a 15 mins fireworks display at 9.30. It was really nice..kinda loud but nice. I video-ed it but can't upload it on cuz it doesn't recognise the file extension (I recorded it on my phone)

Oh and on Friday (the day before I went to city), we had a Chem experiment and this is how ours (I partnered with a American-born Taiwanese guy called Dennis) turned out.
It actually turned out better than expected. Then nothing else interesting happened. On Wednesday (the most recent one) the Language Center (International Student room) cooked Japanese Pancakes.I think it was called Odokonomi but I don't remember. I didn't do any of the cooking since I don't attend classes there (as my english was good enough xP) but the teacher there was nice and said all International students were welcome to have some. Here's a pic I dunno why but haha...

After that I had Peer Support Class. You know..the ones where we help the Year 7s? Yea..but the Year 7s were on camp this week so we couldn't do much. Anyway, we were supposed to be in a room in the E block but they were using that as exam hall for the year 12s as they had a SAC (School Assesed Coursework) that time. So we had a class change and me and two other ppl didn't know that. So we went to the office to check where we were suppose dto go and they said SP1. So we went there...Nobody there. And here's the funny part, we actually walked around the WHOLE school looking for our class but couldn't find it. So we went to the office again and a teacher helped us make and announcement. Apparently our class moved to SP2 which was right beside SP1. Saddist...

So yea.. I can finally blog cuz i'm finally up to date with work and I'm kinda free no. I have an English test on Tuesday but I think should be fine. Note that it isn't like in Malaysia tau!
I miss the craziness of USJ 4 la... Haih.. The people here are nice but liek I said.. no one I can just laugh and be random with... I miss this room>>>

I am making sure I go inside and lepak once I get back to Malaysia and school starts! I wonder if my prefect uniform will still fit..xD
I heard that the OC for camp is out. I wanna congratulate Fafa and Syaza for getting a post there. As well as all the other ppl who did! Hope you guys have fun organizing. Make sure you tell me how it is like ok? 4S sounds so lively now..haha..thanks to Facebook, I know a few things..lol
SO yea.. Guess that's all for now. Oh and go listen to Clay aiken's Invisible. Don't care about the lyrics. It's an awesome song

Here's a little candid vid Syaza took on the last official day of SMK USJ 4 for me.
Oh and..HAPPY FRIDAY THE 13th!!! The 2nd one this year!

A little Filler

2009-02-19T17:12:00.003+08:00

Hey all... I know I haven't been updating like I was supposed to and my vlog is now no more mentioned but cut me some slack hmm.. My internet's really slow right now cuz I've exceeded the limit. Internet plans here in Aussie allows you to use this certain amount per month... when you pass it they either charge you or make ur internet so damn slow it annoys you... so yea...

I can't even load Facebook..dang
Let's see...what can I tell you guys about..ehh
Oh.. I had Peer Support yesterday and during the second period we had to go to our assigned Year 7 classes and help the teacher with the class. I was supposed to be working with two people but one of them couldn't go cuz she had something to do. So I went with the other guy to our class. Our year 7 class had their class in the new section of our school so I actually got to go in there..really nice part.. anyway... they were supposed to do Woodwork but there weren't enough materials and machinery so the teacher took them outside for bball and left me and my partner in charge!!

Since I'm NOT very good at bball and my partner was better..he took the guys while I took the girls... Played half court.. I didn't play..just watch over and "supervise" xD
Then when school was finished, the teacher(also my form teacher which is also lucky for me since it's my first time) commented that we were quite good and did a good job.
Then this girl forgot her jacket so the teacher took the jacket for safekeeping. The girl came back to look for it and we told her that the teacher took it. She was like oh..ok... then walked off. We were like.. you sure you don't need it?? Then she went "No it's fine". Then she kinda wiped her eyes so we thought she was crying. (Note that she kinda got hit by a bball before that as well)

So we were like.. "dang.. what should we do?? My partner (he's REALLY good with kids) wnet on and said.. he'll try to find the teacher while I go talk to her. So I went on and continuosly asked her if she was OK and if she would get in trouble for not having the jacket and she said It's ok. My partner came back saying he couldn't find the teacher so that's that.

Today, I saw my form teacher and asked for the jacket and passed it back to her. I asked her again if she got in trouble and she said no. Then, I had a Maths class with my partner and he said he saw her crying yesterday and getting scolded by her mum but I doubt it cuz he's more on the practical joker type so yea.. I was a little worried about it.

That's the interesting thing so far.. will blog more when new things pop up. Cheers!

Proper Motivation!!

2009-02-12T13:37:00.003+08:00

HI ALL!!!
I think I MIGHT not be able to put up the vlog and shouldn't be blogging now cuz I have THREE tests next week which I have NOT study for. Especially that stupid Periodic Table of Elements...so maybe syaza will be the last one laughing after all..

I'll just blog a little about things so that I don't have that much to talk about in my vlog which I WILL get to.....eventually

As I said..my parents went home... so I'm starting to do everything myself which is VERY mendokusai but it feels great once you actually accomplish it. It's gonna be really adventurous... that was what I was looking for when I came here.

School started last week... It's still school just like in Malaysia except that the study system here is not so much homework and memorizing and more thinking and assignments. So it's very different here. I tell ya.. When I went into my first Commerce class last week.. I was so friggin lost. Getting better at it now. In fact.. one of my tests next week is Commerce. You get wour own locker and us International students get our on "common room" you might say which we can put our food in the fridge and reheat them while normal students can..xD

We can actully eat in there as well but the international student coordinator always shoos us out to mix with the locals.. but.. usually after she leaves..everyone goes back in again. Oh and we are allowed to bring stuff like phones, iPods, PSP and all that to school. As long as you don't get caught using it or use it in a class..it's fine..haha

The school is huge and there are more new rooms being built now so it gets kinda hard to find ur way around. Especially since every class is in a different room. Example: Commerce can be in E03 today and N11 the next time. Eh..what else ah..

Oh.. went to the beach last Wednesday for a Water Safety Course for the new International students which was 3 Chinese, 2 Japanese and 1 Malaysian..haha oh and two teachers.
Lucky for me it's in the summer cuz the students last year had it in winter. So yea.. we learned a little about the beaches in Aussie and what lifeguards do. We got to play with a few life saving stuff and a little bonus... they tried to teach us how to balance on a surfboard!!! Just lying down and balance though..no standing up yet... the 2 Japanese were really good at it while the rest of us just sucked.. I managed to balance on it while paddling for 20 seconds before I fell off..xD

And one last thing of interest I suppose... Every Wednesday we Year 10s have some called Electives. These are like fun calsses that don't go into the report card. I managed to get into Peer Support. In Peer Support we help the new Year 7s (Which is like form 1 in our school) to get used to high school life. we actually work in groups and get to organise activities to do with the year 7s as well as kinda "council" them..haha how cool is that?!
We also get this Buddy Badge to pin on for joining this. So it's just like having my Prefect badge all ove ragain =)

Ok that's all for now.. Ask if you guys want to know more..I;ll try answering them. I HAVE to go study for my Physical Schience (chem+Physics) and Commerce test next week now. I also have maths but all we're doing is Standard Forms and Indices..hehe
Who knew the maths in Malaysia was so much more advanced..haha
Ok..Cya all!!

2009-01-26T18:11:00.003+08:00

(This was drafted yesterday)

HELLO FRIENDS!!!
Firstly.. Happy Chinese New Year!!
GONG XI FA CAI!!

Ahh.. now that that's settled. I just got back from my camping trip so I'ma blog about it.
However... the funniest thing happened..heh... We're were kinda in a hurry to leave so I.......
.......
.......
.......
left my camera at home...hehe... oops?

So yea..no pics. I tried to use my phone but it just wasn't nice at all.
I'll just go on with words and such...
I promise..I'll try to be a more camera person soon hmm?

DAY 1
-Stopped halfway to have lunch of Fish'n'Chips and Fried Rice. weird but yea..
The flies were horribly annoying since it was a picnic.
- Reached the camp site at around 3pm. Wasn't too sunny so it was nice to set up camp.
Met the other three families (friends of my uncle) who were camping with us (as in around our campsite). Really nice ppl. Sadly their children were all like 4-10 so didn't really have anyone to talk to.
-Just sat around and had a little chat with my uncles friends.(Not just me la..my family as well)
-It rained and thunderstorm-ed around 3-4.30 am. Luckily the tent was well protected.

DAY 2
-Just lazed around and played Mahjongg at night. It was friggin cold that day...
-Also learned how to play Skip-bo (from the creators of Uno) from one of my uncle's friend.

DAY 3
-Went to an art exhibition in a town nearby. Bought stuff for bbq at night.
-Played rummikub (something like Gin-Rummy) while waiting for dinner.

DAY 4 (CNY day)
-Packed up and left. Had leftovers for lunch.
-Stopped at this small town and played Chess on this huge board meant for the garden and watch a live band perform (A not so known one).My little cousin vomited on the way home. I think he ate too much.
-Reached home, unloaded then Skyped with my cousins back in Malaysia to see the atmosphere

So yea.. as you can see, it was mainly just lazing around during my camping trip. It wasn't exactly like in the middle of no where. There was a lot of facilities for kids to enjoy so yea...

I'm so bored these days. I should really blog more. Aqilah and Syaza keep asking for pics of Aussie... I know... I want to post pics..but
I'm just not used to taking pics and uploading them. It's just so.... mendokusai...
I'll try though...

Oh..one last thing. Went to my school today to meet with the teacher in charge of International Students. I'm kinda exctied for school but nervous as well. I found out what I'm taking for my school year.

Semester 1 (Feb-June-ish?)
-Physical Science (Physics+Chem)
-BioScience (Bio+Psychology)
-Robotics/Electronics Building
-Business studies
-English
-Maths

Semester 2 (July-??)
-Food for the Future
-Media Studies
-Visual Communications (Graphics)
-Health Ed.
-English
-Maths

As you can see.. all the fun subjects are in Semester 2 so yea... got like so much to go through till then. The teacher DID tell me roughly what I would be doing in Graphics and Media studies though. Supposedly, Graphics would use the PC alot to make stuff like logos, banners and whatnot. For Media Studies, There will be a lot of Video Presentations and plays and such so yea.. I'm REALLY looking forward to them. Would it be ok posting class assignments (if any) on H0tandL0w?? haha

Speaking of H0tandL0w.. I'm gonna miss all those meetings where we try to come up with a vid idea but end up being ADD instead. I guess thats all for now. Miss y'all lots.

Hmm.. thx to Nigel.. I might start Vlogging too. Much easier than blogging. Just sit in front of the cam and talk..haha

Upda-ttebayo!

2009-01-20T16:44:00.003+08:00

Hey Syaza, Aqilah, Julia and all you Narutards out there.. Don't you just agree with that pic??
You guys HAVE to check out ToonTwins . This one is done by her/them. It's got plenty of good funny pics. I wonder who the boy in the hat is though.. Spoilers please?

I'm sorry I haven't been blogging much. Just been so lazy these days.
I really experienced Summer yesterday. It was freaking hot, stuffy and dry. You go out for half an hour without sunscreen and you get sunburned..>.>
It's back to the usual wind stoday but it's not as cold as the days before.

I heard from Syaza and from Aifa's blog that 4S has loads of work to do now huh? Pity you guys.
I really miss the work. It was something to do. It's so boring here. It's either computer, DS or get annoyed by my annoying cousins who just don't seem to behave at all!
Honestly... I never knew little kids could be THAT bad... I said that I wouldn't mind taking care of kids.. but if all of them are like my cousins... I'm moving 1000 km AWAY from that place...

It's so quiet around here. I hardly laugh here compared to back in M'sia at school or at home. It's just weird for me. I can't even find a nice radio station like Fly or Hitz to listen to here. I sure miss listening to Flirty at 10.30.

I tend to pull out my folder alot the past days. The one containing the really nice pics drawn by Syaza and Aqilah. As well as all the messages Chia Mei collected for me. Of course I still have that piece of message board that Ellisa made.

Sometimes I keep telling myself that I can live with it but it's so hard for me. what am I gonna do when my parents leave. I'll be doing all the work by myself.

I gotta cheer up. don't wanna be in a state of depression for the rest of my life.
GAMBATTE!!!

P.S: I know you guys are busy but come online on MSN more!

Solitude...

2009-01-16T16:07:00.003+08:00

HELLO FRIENDS!!!

I'm sorry I haven't been updating my blog. Nothing much to update.
Just finding out how to get to my school. Getting used to life here.
It's summer and it's cold here. Why?
Cuz of the winds. Seriously... they're so strong here... I hate to think about the weather
in winter! At the very leat I don't sweat when I cycle to school.

My dad and I tried getting to my school yesterday but we went the wrong way and ended up going the very long way. It took us around an hour to go there and come back but I didn't even break a sweat! it's seriously cold now... my hands are freezing as I type this.
Anyway...

I'm missing all you guys back in M'sia! I miss laughing in class for no reason... Talking about random things as well as joking around with all of you. I can't even be a Narutard here cuz I can only watch one episode a day..T_T

I guess that's all for now. will update longer when more things have happened.
Till then fellow friends!

P/S (EDIT): I'll be on in Malaysian time
Monday to Fridays: 5pm-7pm
Saturday and Sundays: At random times but usually in the afternoon or evening

And away I go...>.<

2009-01-13T19:48:00.003+08:00

I can't believe it's here... I never thought this day would come.
The day I part with my dear Family and Friends.

I'm NOT gonna be used to not having
Syaza, Julia and Aqilah there with their usual noise..
Aifa and Pang with their hyperness...
Brandon and Mun Hong's bball fever...
Sanesh's constant "Sorries"...
Whacking Tracey and Brynn for no reason
Annoying Danielle and Michelle
Faruq's annoyance...
Calling Shermaine Chix...
Manveer with his weirdness...
Making fun of Charis and Tessa
Yee Ling's sarcasm
All those Together Gathers...
Prefect...
Prefect Camp!!
and everyone else!

Gah.... I really HAVE to keep blogging... PEOPLE! Keep coming back to read yea??? I'm gonna try and constantly update but I'm gonna have to put my schoolwork before my blog...

I can't go online so much since the charges for my uncle's house is based on usage... but i'll try my best to come online at certain times. will post here once i get my schedule fixed there.
My awesome friends... Some are missing...It's ok..you guys are still in my heart..xD

My best friends. I know it's just plain weird for guys to have best friends who are girls but it's just true. Syaza, Aqilah, Julia and Aifa... You guys have been awesome friends!
Thanks for everything!

Good bye MALAYSIA!!!!
dattebayo!?

Harder to leave...

2009-01-09T21:13:00.002+08:00

Aww man.. Syaza and Julia just did the nicest thing in for me as a friend.
It's gonna make me more heavy hearted to leave these awesome friends of mine.
Note that I'm mentioning everyone but just syaza and Julia more since they actually took the time to do this...

It was really emo and like I wasn't ever coming back at the beginning and they didn't know what they were saying..but it's really the thought that counts!

THX SO MUCH GUYS!!! 143!!!

Emotion Commotion!!

2009-01-08T20:57:00.003+08:00

I love my blog. It's such a great way to keep in touch with friends!
I'm gonna be using my blog so much in another 2 weeks or so...
I'm kinda thankful now that Syaza, Julia and Aqilah managed to get me to start up this blog...

Anyway, it's like my final few days as a student as well as as a prefect SMK USJ 4.
It's been fun. The official first day was boring since it was all ceramah.
Streaming started the next day and as Syaza said in her blog... Julia was sent to 4M while the rest of us were in 4S. I actually was given the choice to choose 4S or 4M since I was like the last guy there... Maybe I should have gone to M just to teman Julia for the week...

We started subjects most of our subjects but just hardly scratched the surface. I actually want it to start more so that I can have a little knowledge on stuff like Bio and Chem when I go to Melbourne in the next few days... I feel a little bad not really copying notes on Moral, BM and Sejarah even though I'm not exactly studying them anymore...

I guess there's really nothing else to talk about now... Other than to enjoy my last few days with my awesome friends... Till the next post

P.S If anyone sees a Konoha head protector get fro me!!! Ask Syaza if you wanna know how it looks like... Or better yet.. It's the thing on Naruto's Forehead..xD
Any other gifts work as well..xD

A New Year...A New Beginning!

2008-12-25T17:03:00.006+08:00

I am sorry dear blog for neglecting you to watch Naruto.

So many things have happened since my last post. For example Sanesh's awesome Christmas party/sleepover. I'm too lazy to blog abou that so we'll leave it as it is..=P
BTW.. this is gonna be a pretty long post so please bear with me!

I'll just blog about yesterday.

31 December 2008
We got our results the day before. I'm glad I managed to get my string of As.
So we went to OU today (31st) to so called "celebrate". I picked up Aifa and Sanesh and headed to OU. For once.. Julia,Syaza and Aqilah all got there EARLY! Julia and aqilah's sister tagged along. So anyway, we met up... and had brunch. Then Sanesh and I had to tag along while they kept going window shopping for clothes.

We went and watch Yes Man at 1.10. Aifa and Sanesh said it was kinda boring cuz they've already watched it before. But after watching it, I really disagree with them. It's pretty good!
After the movie the girls went window shopping again. Sanesh and I went to S+J while they were at Padini. We went back down and found out there went to FOS. So we searched OU to find FOS, found them then Sanesh and I decided to go look at some games and CDs. We were gone for about 5 minutes only and the girls moved to ANOTHER store again. So off we went on another game of shop-n-seek. We caught up to them and this time just sat outside the shop and chay.

We wanted to go fo Baskin Robins but the line was WAY too long so we went to DQ Julius instead. After ordering and sitting down for a while, the girls had to leave. Sanesh had to follow me back and my dad was watching a movie till 5+ and it was only around 4.30.
So I suggested to go MPH to kill some time. We went around looking at the comics and then Sanesh saw this traveller's dictionary for Japanese. We were kinda interested in it so we went ove rto the dictionary section to have a look at all the Japanese dictionaries there. We sat there the whole time trying to get a bit of Japanese in our heads. How nerdy huh? I still remember some of them. (Of course, most were learned from Naruto..haha)

Then I bought a Choco Mint pretzel from Auntie Anne's, dropped off Sanesh and headed home.
Went out for dinner with my father's friend and that's how I spent my New Year's Eve.

Phew... that was long. Thanks for reading up till here. Now I'm gonna go into my random rambles.

I kinda regret not watching Naruto earlier in the holidays. If I did, I could be in Shippuden by the time I went to Aussie. Speaking of Aussie, it is now officially 13 days till I leave for Melbourne. My mum has been nagging me to do more research on the public transport there.

Honestly... I'm feeling quite nervous now. After having spent so many years here and have a great group of friends and family, I'm gonna go over there to start over and not know a single person in the school. I wonder how the school there would be like...

I guess it's time for resolutions now. I really have to make a few good ones since this year is gonna be a HUGE step in my life. I know it's gonna be super tough the first few months but once I get used to it, I bet it's gonna be the story of my life...

Anyhow, here's my resolutions:
* Try my best to adapt to the change of lifestyle there.
* Study hard and earn a bit of cash doing part time jobs.
* Exercise more and lose weight (I REALLY need this)
* Keep in contact with my friends and family.
* Just enjoy life.
* TRY to pick up Guitar, Surfing and/or Skateboarding

I really hope I can stick to those resolutions.
this is gonna be one heck of a year...

HAPPY 2009 EVERYONE!

What goes around...Comes around...

2008-12-18T13:37:00.002+08:00

Well... It's so so close to PMR results but I don't think anyone is actually THAT bothered about it hmm... Needless to say, I just wanna know how I did.

Anyhow, I'm not gonna dwell in that topic. My uncle has told me to do research on the public transport in Melbourne so I can actually get around. It's not really fun to be doing a project during the school holidays but oh well...

I would really say I've been horribly bored this past week but that would be lying. On Saturday I went with my mum and my aunty to a Warehouse Sale on Crocs (those shoes with holes in them..)
and we actually stood in line for like 90 minutes before being able to go in. Looking at those other ppl buy the crocs are unbelievable. The original price is like 130++ but it's only 70 bucks there. I bet a lot of people think "WOW! that's like half the price!! Let's get more!" BUT the stuff at the sale were all old designs.

Personally I don't see the point of getting crocs. You're paying 100+ for a pair of retarded looking slippers. And even if it was half priced it's still not worth it cuz some of them makes you look all clumsy. I tried one pair on.. sure it was comfortable but boy it looked bad... My aunty bought one pair and we left. Then we went to The Curve to have a look at the decorations fo rChristmas and lunch. The decorations were pretty nice. They even had this little parade which had like a snowman, Santa.. some guy on stilts and carollers going around the place.

On Sunday, My family went out with my aunt again for lunch. we had Shabu-Shabu (Japanese Steamboat). It was G-O-O-D! I wanted to go for this City Championship thingy for Pokemon TCG but I went for the lunch instead. Kinda glad I didn't go cuz later I found out that Guo Yao and Jason (other friend) didn't go and I wouldn't have liked to be there alone.

Monday was a boring day, did the usual boring stuff. Now Tuesday brought some change and excitement. Everymorning I watch Teen Titans (This shows rocks man..xD) then followed up by Naruto since I really have nothing better to do. Then on Tuesday, Naruto suddenly just go tot me. I was interested in the show. So I went online and started asking Syaza and Aqilah where to find the episdes since I clearly won't be able to watch it on CN anymore next year. I found the site and it was REALLy slow. So i got pissed and turned off the com and ignored it for the day.

Then I decided to try it again on Wednesday. The speed was reasonably fast and I was happy with it. So I managed to watch from episode 50-62 yesterday. Now I'm waiting for 63 and 64 to load. It's being slow again. So yea... I'm now into Naruto. It's just ironic for me cuz I always complained when Aqilah and Syaza talked about Naruto. Now I'm into it...lol
But... They're like watching Shippuden. I'm still watching the original series. And it has like 200 episodes and some fillers. And Naruto Shippuden is currently at episode 90. I've got a looong way more till I understand their level of Narutard language.
Aqilah also asked me to go for CF but I don't think I would be able to make it. Sorry!

Ok.. That's all for now... I'ma go curse at the video for taking so long to load. Teill next time

Together Gather? 'fraid not...

2008-12-10T11:19:00.002+08:00

People keep asking me to update but it seems kinda pointless...

So it was Together Gather this morning... w-ell... it actually still is...
I'm just back home cuz my mum said she wanted to go out and asked me to go along. THen when I got home, she said no need anymore... so here I am.. blogging.

Let's go back to this morning. I arrived at the park at 8.15 ish. The guys were bball-ing and Syaza and Aifa were on the swings. They came to the other half of the bbal court to play badminton when Julia arrived. Julia and I watched them play a bit when the guys called me to go play bball. The girls keep "ordering" me to go but I said no. If you guys keep wondering why I don't play bball is because I horribly SUCK in it.

I CANNOT play... If I did it's be like putting a stupid pole with thorns in the middle of the court. Make that a pole with thorns which moves... So yea... Now you know.

Back to the topic, The girls took our bikes to go to Syaza's house to get her bball cuz they wanted to play but then they returned without anything.. hmm..
A part of the park smelled like the fish market with the fish gone BAD. One of the girls found out that it was because there was leftover blood there from Hari Raya Haji.

Aqilah arrived and Julia left. The girls decided to go to Syaza's house. Since I didn't want to play bball... I went cycling around USJ 4. When I reached back to the park, the guys left for mamak so I joined them. Then they decided to go CC. I followed even though I usually don't.

Normally this is where one group goes CC and one group heads off to Syaza's house. But it couldn't work that way today. So I watched them DoTA a little when my mum called me. That's how I ended up blogging now.

All I have to say is... This can't really be called a TOGETHER gather. Since the guys play bball like 2 hours in the morn and the girls don't play bball as much. We split into 2 groups. My vision of Together Gather was everyone together. It's fine to play bball. It is the whole reason of the thing anyway. BUT we should at leats just spend some time to sit down and talk. Instead we split into 2 groups and do totally different things. Where's the friendship and Unity in that?!

But it was still a good day I suppose. At least it was somehting to do. I think I'm really gonna miss all these "gatherings" next year...

Anyhow, let's talk about somehting else huh?
I was reading game reviews on Gamespot.com yesterday when I stumbled across something.
Kingdom Hearts :358/2 for the NDS!!!!
I remember Syaza telling me about it so I continued reading all the previews and news.
Apparently it's called 358/2 because you play as Roxas and Axel when Roxas was in the Organization XIII. Since there's 365 days in a year and we used Roxas for 7 days in Kingdom Hearts 2, you get 365-7=358!! The prevew of the storyline is so awesome!!!!

If you ahven't played or heard of Kingdom Hearts the boo for you. I really can't wait for the game to come out. It's gonna be out in Japan during the next Winter... Sadly, it'll take like 3-6 months from that to get it translated to English and work out the bugs and glitches.
So I think it'll only be out like October-December next year... That's almost 358 days away..T_T

Guess that's all I'm blogging for now. I'm gonna go watch Mythbusteres while waiting for Syaza and the rest to call for a supposedly HotandLow meeting later.
Oh and touching about HotandLow.. we only did ONE vid throughout the whole holidays so far. I thought we were talking about a lot of vids hmm... so now what???

"Hello is the beginning of Goodbye"

2008-12-03T19:49:00.005+08:00

Hello! I know I haven't been updating. Sorry ol' blog!
I've been drafting a few posts and then turning out not liking them and deleted it.
Since there's so much to cover, expect a long post with lotsa words. However, I assure you that it's gonna be fun to read (I hope).Please read till the end..>.<>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Right...Here we go.....
_______________________________________________________________

I have been rotting away at home the past few days. It was actually the perfect opportunity to blog but I was so lazy. At least Syaza, Aifa, Aqilah, Julia, Faruq and a few other people actually went to MPSJ to jog and hang out. I was really just doing the same thing over and over again...
It's so boring when you don't contact your friends and they don't contact you. I should make a better effort in talking to my friends since I won't have much of a chance soon...

That covers the last few days....
_______________________________________________________________

As for today...It was one of the BEST days ever since the PMR ended and also this whole year.
There was a little get together at OU with my old classmates. Sadly...not many people turned up. Just 9 other people. 2 whom I didn't know and got to be friends with today.

It was 8 girls (Jun Ning, Suet Tyng, Suki, Jyen Yiee, Soung Hui, Rachael) and 2 guys... Two of the girls joined us after the movie. One of the guys(Yew Leung) just stayed for a short while leaving me alone with the other 7 girls. This is just exactly like in school...>.>
Anyway... Since we booke dtickets for Wild Child at 1.30 there was soem time to kill before we headed out for lunch. So I got dragged into DreamWorld which takes those lala pics and makes them into small pics/stickers.... I suppose it'll be a memorable thing. Haha. We didn't know how to use the controls at all since everything was in Japanese. So Rachael just randomly pushed buttons until we managed to get it. We actually had to call for help like...3-5 times...hehe

After that we had lunch at a place called Charms in the new wing near the TGV in the old wing. We chose that place cuz it had this big table in the centre and it had swings for chairs. The food there is not really that bad but the price is almost similar to Secret Recipe. Anyway, after lunch one of the girls had to go so left with the other 5 girls (Ching Yie and her friend Carmen only joined us after the movie) and off we went to watch Wild Child.

I suppose it was a kinda girly movie. But hey! It's a free world. Haha... There were only like 20+ ppl there. But i suppose it's just because it's TGV. I wonder why nobody goes there. They upgraded it and it's friggin 4 bucks cheaper than GSC! Anyway, among that group only 3 (including me) of them were guys. Lol! It's not really that bad. Kinda funny seeing the battles between British girls and an American girl. Giving it a 6.8/10 .

After that we went for...KARAOKE!! (Is that how you spell it?)
It's over at the new wing beside the Bowling Alley. We bought Eight songs (1 buck per song) and went to our booth. It was kinda small to fit 8 ppl but we managed..haha
We started off with Super Trouper. It was really fun. Also sang My Heart Will Go On, Touch My Body, Barbie Girl (LOL!), Lady Marmalade (the one with the Gitchy, Gitchy Ya Ya Gi Ya), Irreplaceable, Mamma Mia and...Oops I did it again. We only finished Super Trouper, Mamma Mia and Oops I did it again. During the other songs we were either laughing too much or we just didn't know how the song went..haha

Then an embarassing thing happened. We finished our songs and were gonna leave when suddenly the screen appeared again with another 2 credits. So we thought... heh... why not just use it. Then the guy at the counter came up and knocke don the door. Apparently the credit was someone else's. We used one credit so we just paid it back and VERY quickly left. Phew...

After that we were really out of ideas so we randomly went to the playground outside and had a few laughs. Then, Soung Hui had to go home so we accompanied her to the taxi stand to wait for her mum. While waiting we took a few pics. Will post them up once I get them from Suet Tyng.
We dared Suet Tyng to run up to the next person who came in the door and snap a pic with him/her. She didn't want to do it at first but then we managed to persuade her and she said ok. And guess what? The next person to come in was a kid! She ran over and when the kid saw her, he ran AWAY and into OU. We were really laughing our guts out there. It was hilarious!

I had to go back after that. Dropped of Suet Tyng and Jyen Yiee.. headed home.. had dinner and now blogging. And that was my day...=)
_________________________________________________________________

If you've read till here. I thanketh thee and hopeth ye will continue reading on.
Right.. so this part is about random ramblings on music videos. I've been watching ALOT of music videos lately. New and Old.

I'll be talking about a few new songs. You guys SHOULD check out Taylor Swift's Love Story song/vid. The song is just awesome and she looks really pretty in the vid. Hey don't get me wrong.. I like the song cuz it's nice not because of the vid! This goes for Britney Spear's Womanizer as well!!!!

Pussycat Dolls' I Hate This Part is OK I guess... It's just weird how it's the Pussycat Dolls' song when only Nicole Sherzingger (however you spell that) is singing. I may be wrong but looking at the vid... it's only her. I'm amazed the other girls don't get jealous or something

Another song would be Danity Kane's Bad Girl feat. Missy Elliot. The tune has this... Halloweeny feel to it. Ok..maybe not but it's really unique BUT this is another song which guys probably shouldn't sing along out loud like The Best Damn Thing and If I Were A Boy.

Speaking of Beyonce's If I Were A Boy... The vid is actually so stereotypical. I mean, not ALL guys are like that! Apart from that, It is kinda unique how they made it.

And yea.. that ends this. Thanks for reading. Cya!
~Super Trouper Lights Are Gonna Find Me~

PS: I'll do the tag during my next post

Who knew it could happen!

2008-11-14T20:04:00.005+08:00

I know... I know... I haven't been updating... Not that it matters how much I update anyway!
I've been so busy the past week. With my uncle and aunty in China leaving my two small cousins behind, my mum, another aunty and me had to babysit..=_=
I'm not gonna talk about the last week of school and our really ADD filled H0tandL0w meeting since practically everyone talked about it. So I'll just briefly talk about last week and kinda detailed about today (loads happened). So please bear with the long-ish post!

Just one thing about the last week of school, I was home alone for a night that time. I could have had a wild party at my house but being the good boy I am... I didn't.
Right, so last week just went to my grandma's house to babysit the two kids. Tiring. Especially since they're like 3 and 5.. In the naughty stage. I had to sleepover there on Wednesday night. 6.30 the next morning my younger cousin jumped on me. Couldn't sleep again after that. =_=
Oh.. and I learned how to play Mahjongg..xP

There.. that was last week...It's short but... Now about today..

My aunty wanted to go to Pavilion and since I haven't been there, I tagged along. Since there was no one to fetch us, we took a train down to KL Sentral and then a Monorail to Bukit Bintang. Went on to Sungei Wang Plaza and just walked around. Then hopped of to Low Yat Plaza for some IT shopping. I tell you... Low Yat is FULL of technology for sale... I was really shocked to find out that a SanDisk 4GB Pendrive only cost 27 bucks! My aunty actually wanted to buy from this one shop but apparently one of the shopkeepers wasn't sure if there was stock so he went to check. We stood there for around 10 mins and my aunty was gonna ask if there still was one, then we see that guy sitting in one corner counting money. like WTH?! we were standing there for nothing.. sheesh!

After walking around a bit more, we walked to Pavilion. Actually, we were not really sure how to go there, we knew hwere it was roughly but we got confused. So my aunty decided to ask a random person. Here's what happened (A=aunty R=random person)
A= Excuse Me
R= *Just stares in front and contiune walking*
A= Hello?!
R=*walks away*

Sheesh... some people... and she was carrying Prada bag and having all that branded stuff...
Luckily we met another lady who was going to Pavilion as well. So we followed. Pavilion is nice but boring after a while. Especially if ur not really into buying clothes. Yea.. we waited till around 2 for my aunty's friend to come and had lunch at the food court there. Then we walked over to KLCC Convention Centre for a Home Decor Fair. I wasn't really interested but I just tagged along cuz my aunty and her friend are really sporting ppl so I had fun joking and talking to them.

At the fair, i saw this HUGEMONGOUS TV. It's was like 103" wide!!! And it was PLASMA!!!
Of course.. It cost around 220,000 bucks... I took a pic to see the size difference between that and a 42" TV but it's in my aunty's cam. Can you imagine how cool it'd be to play a PS3/Wii/Xbox360 on that?! My aunty's friend had to go at 5 so we headed off to KLCC to catch a train back to PJ. It's really cool how catching a train/monorail and a little walking can get you to so many places. When we were on the train (LRT actually) back, I saw all those ppl stuck in a jam after work. i pity those ppl while we just zoomed past them..xD

We had to walk home after that cuz no one could fetch us. We walked back to my grandma's house. It was like a 15 mins walk. And it was drizzling. I think I walked like 10 km or more the whole day today..=_=

I think that's all I'm gonna type for now. Busy trying to arrange a reunion with my old classmates. Till next time.

Just make me smile =)

2008-10-31T00:30:00.004+08:00

EDIT: I drafted this at 1.30 am. Only posting it now cuz went to watch movie during that time then played cards,then was just too lazy and tired to care... xD

Aah.. Listening to Bubbly at 1.30 in the morning is really relaxing.
So I'm staying over at sanesh's house for the night. If you guys read my blog post about staying over at sanesh's house last year, you would know that we'll probably be up till... 4-5am?

Anyway, I'll start from this morning.
There was a pastry workshop at KDU today. We got a surprisingly nice bus and it even came on time!!! We reached there around 8.40 and I felt like a little kid at that college. You get the feeling the students there are like "What are these kids doing here?". Cuz they were like not in uniform and we were in uniform AND carrying backpacks... Aqilah,Julia and Syaza were annoyed I kept dwelling on that fact. We had a nice lady from the college to give us a general tour of the place. I don't know if she wie as a student or lecturer.
Just a random thing: they actually have a recording room. How cool is that?!

Oh and they actually have other workshops like Law and Media studies ut our school was taking part... Darn.>.<
So anyway, we went into one of the classes and found out that we are not gonna bake... Darn x2!
We also found out that another school was joining us for the workshop.
The guy who was lecturing us was kinda cool though. He also gave me a bit more "support" that being a chef would be ok. I actually did want to pursue culinary arts but now I think it would b emy 2nd choice. Not because of what the guy said but just because I wanna pursue sth else first.

He taught us how to bake cream puffs. As I said, we didn't get to bake but we got to eat! It was really good! So I managed to jot down the recipe but i doubt if I'll ever get to bake it cuz I don't have an oven in my house...haha!

After that we had lunch. ANOTHER school joined us for lunch. SMK Taman Sea.They went for the robotics workshop. Met Yew Leung there. He's an old friend from my primary school. Great to see him again after 3 years. Then while waiting for our lunch to arrive, we were asked to talk about one thing we have learned in our workshops. I sure am glad I didn't go for the robotics workshop. It was funny seeing them trying to think of a point to say.

Taman Sea had to grab their lunch to go cuz their bus arrived early. So we had the whole room to ourselves. We had Mee goreng+tofu+fried chicken. The food was okok la.

That's all I'm talking about the trip. So I went to sanesh's hse at 3. We talked. Aifa and Sara came. Then Tracey+Brynn. Other ppl who came are, Julia, Aqilah, Mich+Dan, Brandon, Faruq, Afiq,Yohann,Deion,Mun Hong and Pang. Syaza couldn't come... again... Sorry Binxeh!
Aifa asked if she could use my MSN to chat cuz she never chatted before so I thought fine, What could possibly go wrong? Boy was I dumb... Julia, Brynn and Aifa decided to say Hi to everyone online and started typing weird stuff. I had to use another com to sing in using Windows Msnger
to stop them. Mun Hong was the next victim.

While Faruq and Pang were extremely (emphasis on extremely!) into the PS3. Yohann devised this "plan" to prank the girls. It's actually this game where you have to complete the maze without touching the walls, whne you reach this certain part, a retarded pic pops out with a scream. Yohann turned the speakers up! Yohann managed to persuade Sara to try first. First blood! A really loud scream was heard then the other girls got curious. Next went Brynn, Dan Mich and everyone else except Fafia, Julia and Aqilah.

We also had to try it on Sanesh, Afiq and Deion cuz they didn't know about it. hehe. We then turned on Video call with Syaza and started shouting random things. The webcam didn't work so we couldn't exactly show here what we were doing.Later everyone left except Afiq, Deion, Faruq, Mun Hong, Julia, Aqilah, Pang and Brandon. We ordered pizza. When it came we were right in the middle of doing this game/horror story thingy called Hotel626. You can ttempt it here www.hotel626.com Rmb, It's only from 8pm-6am.. haha

BUT! the thing was being really retarded since we were watching it on laptop and wireless. It was painstakingly slow... Then we finally got Brandon and Pang to stop playing DoTA and we use the PC instead. Much better. We haven't even finished the 2nd part and Aqilah had to go home. So we continued on with Faruq at the mouse. Then it got slow again so Faruq, Brandon and Pang went out to PS3 again. We waited,this time with MH at the mouse. It wasn't really THAT scary. You guys can also YouTube it and see the attempts other ppl did. We couldn't finish the thing cuz it jammed right in the middle so we screwed it. Julia went back here. Brandon went back somewhere earlier.

Around 10.45 Faruq had to go home. His dad didn't let him stay. So Afiq, MH, sanesh and me being the good friends we are decided to walk him home. We left Pang and Deion to "guard" the house while they were playing PS3..=_=
We only followed him till one of the turning where he insisted we left him. It was surprisingly a long walk. it took us 20 mins to reach there and i think it was only half way done to his house.
We got back at 11.30-ish and decided to just sit there and watch Pang and Deion play PS3.

Around midnight, Sanesh tried to teach Mun Hong a few songs while I just used the net. a little before that Sanesh and I managed to chat with Aqilah and she told us the ending for Hotel626 since she saw it on YouTube. Around 1.45 we watched Don't Mess with the Zohan. Honestly... It was lame. We got soo bored of it MH and Sanesh actually slept halfway through. So we decided to just swithc it off and go up to sleep instead. Surprising huh? Afiq was already asleep cuz he had to go to school that day.

We didn't sleep at that time. Instead Pang brought up a laptop and we decided to play cards and use those chips you get at casinos to "bet". Don't worry! No money was involved. We then played Poker and taught MH how to play. Pang also joined in. After that we played Blackjack till about 4.45 and then turned on the TV (It was in Keshan's room and we slept there). Then around 5 we were really sleep so we truned off the TV. Me, Pang and Deion couldn't sleep so Me and Deion played NDS while Victor PSPed. We finally slept around 5.45.

Woke up at 11. Pang and Deion also woke up around that time leaving Sanesh and Mun Hong still asleep. We actually said that the first one to sleep last night, we were gonna pour water over that guy in the morning. We decided not too cuz it was a little messy. We then decided to take tooth paste and put on Sanesh and MH's hand since they were the first to sleep. We tried Sanesh first... He woke up.. Oh well. We managed to put some toothpaste on Mh's hand. We treid tickling his nose with a tissue paper so he would smack the paste on his face. Didn't work. He hit Pang on the face instead (By accident). after that he woke up.

Had brunch at 11.30. Sanesh's mum bought Roti canai and Nasi Lemak. The sambal fo rthe rice was so darn spicy. All of us were in tears after eating it..xD
After that Mun Hong went back leaving Me pang and Deion to play Wii. Wii played Super Smash Bros: Brawl. Cool game!
I went home around 12.45. Had to help my mum with a bit of work then watched TV till 3. Slept till 5 and then went out to meet up with my aunties frm NZ for dinner.

Phew... that's a long post. Sorry if it's too long. Thanks for reading the whole thing.
Before I go, I wanna congratulate Ian's group+Syaza,Chia Mei and Aifa for making it to the finals of KWN. Good luck and adios ppl.

Forest Research Institute of Malaysia?

2008-10-29T15:07:00.004+08:00

Yes. The Forest Research Institute of Malaysia!

So I got better this morning and was all hyped up for the trip!
I got there at 7.10. When I entered school,it was EMPTY! I only saww 11 students including myself and Form 4 and Form 5.. kinda weird. Waited with Shermaine and Michelle at the tempat menunggu and ppl started to flow in.

The 3S students got to move first so we headed for the tour bus. This is how it looks like.
Syaza and Aqilah came late. So the seats were taken and they almost missed the bus. Syaza had to sit on the floor. It was around an hour's worth of journey there. When we reached we got seperated into two groups. The first bus and the second. Aifa,Shermaine and Li Jean jumped to our group. So the guy was there talking about HISTORY (WTH?!) and the background of FRIM.
It was then we spotted this on the tree.
The guy finally finished and brought us to this pond. There ware 3 fishes in there and a few smaller ones. Now these 3 fishes are said to be the LARGEST freshwater fish in the world and they lived in the Amazon river. It's called the Arapaima Gigantes.It can grow up to SEVEN FEET! That's even taller than Manveer by a whole foot! At first I was wondering what kind of fish it was. The guy brought some smaller fish as bait so we could lure them out. Didn't get a picture cuz the water wasn't very clear. Here's how it really looks like.I'm gonna go a little off topic now and talk about this awesome fish!

After doing a little research earlier,I found out this fish is also called the Pirarucu. I remember playing this fishing game back in the days on the PS1 and one of the rare and hard to catch fish was this one. Apparently, these fishes existed for a really long time. If you look at it like really upclose, you'll notice the scales are actually RED in colour. They are Carnivorous and

known to jump to a height of 5 feet from the water to catch food. If you're interested, read more about this awesome fish at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arapaima

Back on track. The pirarucu at FRIM were tamed and trained to NOT jump at a height of 5 feet. Which is a GOOD thing obviously. You wouldn't want it to suddenly jump up at bite you would you? Anyway, he then brought us to see this tree bark which was buried in volcanic earth for a really long time and got minerals stuck in it. Then it started to get fun as he took us into the actual forest and explaining about various plants. It was slightly boring to me.. maybe because I'm not REALLY that interested in plants. We were supposed to go for the canopy walk as well but it got cancelled as the bridge was like out of order.

So we were a little down. Then the guy said we'll be going through a place called "Laluan Pacat" so that we all will feel how it is like to have a leech sucking your blood. He made us stop in the middle of the path. Then he started asking us to look for the leeches around our legs and to our lef and to our right. There was nothing. Then he suddenly he asked us to look up. I wasn't exactly comfortable that time. I was a little afraid that the leeches might have been hanging on the leaves above us and suddenly dropping on our faces. As I looked up, this happened.

It was real cool. Instead of finding leeches, we stumbled upon a magnificent view. We then head on to this pathway to the canopy walk and passed by it. We started to head down the hill and saw some mini waterfalls.

Then the tricky part came. The road back to the bus was slippery, kinda cramped and full of roots growing in awkward positions. It felt like the jungle treks in Prefect Camp all over again. This part was the BEST part of the whole trip. We then took a break at this stream while waiting for the others to come.

Then the guy (I keep calling the guide the guy, I didn't catch his name) said us people from the smarter classes were not good because we were talking while he was explaining but the ppl from the lower class did. That made me mutter under my breath "You never see them in school!"

After that we exited the forest, have some ice-cream (I didn't) and then went on to the canteen and get some drinks and food. I brought my own lunch so.. meh their food..xD

We then headed back to our awesome tour bus and Aifa,Shermaine and Li Jean joined us this time. I was nice and let Syaza sit on the seat this time. So Aifa,Shermaine and me ended up on the floor this time. No matter! It was still waay fun cuz Dain and some other ppl were behind us and we were like in the cool bus. Haha

So that's the end of the FRIM trip. It would've been so much nicer if the canopy walk actually happened. I hope the Pastry Workshop and KDU tomorrow will be fun too. If you read the whole post, thanks! If you didn't go read now or you're missing out about a "report" of a good trip. I'll be blogging again tomorrow after the KDU trip if I have the time. CYA!

Spoilt for Choices

2008-10-28T12:36:00.004+08:00

AHHHH! I've got a freaking tummy ache! It's really uncomfortable. I guess I only have myself to blame....

Yesterday was Izzat's Open House, it was like 1 till whenever.. I went back at 7. but that's beside the point. Now usually in Open Houses... you get spoilt cuz the host keeps offering good food. It happened at Aqilah's house... It happened at Syaza's house... And it definitelyhappened at Izzat's house. His mum cooked spagetthi with two types of sauce, Spicy Beef Bolognaise and Cabonara, some Nasi goreng Kampung and Fried chicken (those small snackable types).

Me being a pushover for spagetthi and fried rice... took a bit of everything.. I WAS STUFFED!
Then we went up to Izzat's room to play PTCG,PS, Computer and our NDS. At 6-ish we were offered tea with Keropok Lekor and chilli sauce with Pisang Goreng (or as our BM papers like to write.. Goreng Pisang). I only had 2 pcs of lekor and 2 pcs of PG since I was still stuffed from lunch.

Got home and my dad cooked fried rice. My dad's fried rice is good so I helped myself to a few spoonfuls. Then it hit me... I overate.. Usually I'm fine with that amount.. BUT I overate the spicy stuff... And as everyone knows, Spicy stuff is famous for giving you... tummy aches!

So yea... I'm still having that tummy ache and tomorrow's the FRIM trip. WHAT LUCK!
Then the day after that is KDU pastry workshop and Snaesh's "party". Then on Friday my aunties coming back from NZ. On Saturday the long awaited "Stormfront Prerelease" is happening at Bangsar. Now is NOT a good time to be feeling sick.

So moral of the story... DON'T eat too much Spicy food. Especially if you have a whole line of events coming up...

Ok.. that's all for now... I think I'm gonna go sleep soon.. must get better by tomorrow..>.<
CYA!

I've been playing Disgaea and Castlevania on my DS these days. These two games are NOT for little kids. The monsters are kinda gory and slightly scary(?).
Scratch that... Disgaea's fine. Disgaea is still about the Underworld and whatnot but added with a little comical laughter. Castlevania on the other hand....

Picture courtesy of GameSpot.

As you can see... it's not exactly cute and cuddly is it?
Sorry if the picture gives you the goosebumps..xD
Despite the goryness, it's a pretty interesting game.

So! Yesterday was Syaza's Open house. It was fun. As usual I'm the victim of teasing but I got used to it. In fact, it's actually beneficial to me cuz I'm sure that's gonna happen alot in future, so best gettin gused to being teased by good friends now than suffer by other ppl.

Btw... Did you know a simple quiz game on the Nintendo Wii can be a good arm-exercising routine? It was really quite tiring tugging that "rope". We boxers also get our training by playing Wii Boxing..xD

Back to today... It was school. had to return SPBT books. And the Form 3 prefects gotta be the planners for a so-called-party. Haiz.. work... but that's not the bad part. Oh No..

WE ACTUALLY HAVE A TIMETABLE!!!! It's after PMR and we have a timetable.. ugh!
For the first 3 periods we MUST be at the field no matter what we do. Then fo rthe next 2 periods we MUST be in the Flexi room or the Library. Then it's reccess and borings seminars ALL THE WAY TO END OF SCHOOL! thank goodness the seminar is only for this week..

We won't be able to enjoy like after UPSR last time since we can't just stay in class and do what ever we like anymore.

Oh and did you guys know.. I have a friend... He qualified for the 2008 World Championship for Pokemon Trading Card Game and went to the USA alone?! Then he managed to get top 16(in the WORLD!!!) and he got himself a 1000USD scholarship, a box of cards AND a custom Nintendo DS... IT's ORANGE! Lucky guy..>.<
See... there is a good thing in playing PTCG!

Anyway, the seminar today was about choosing out subjects in form 4. This got me to so called remember what topics I have chosen for next year.

English- It's a MUST
Maths- It's a MUST as well (but the stuff they teach in it is REALLY confusing!)
Business Studies- Foundation for Econimics and Accounting
Food for the Future - Cooking using basic techniques like stir frying, grilling and all that
Media Studies- The Art of filmaking/those cartoonist flipbooks
Health - Health
Physical Science- Chem and Physics
BioScience- Psychology and Biology
Web Design- Designing ur own webpage and using HTML codes
Geography- Cuz i dunno what else to take anymore and Geo seemed nice

I actually wanted to take Japanese and Graphic Design but they were both full so.. meh.
Ok.. that's all for today. Cya!

Rebirth!

2008-10-17T19:28:00.002+08:00

Hah! yea.. sorry about the emo-ish post just now!

I'm all better now! It just took me a while to get the idea that i can use the com all day long and play my NDS without anyone bugging me to study. AND I have plans for tomorrow!

Aw yea.. life's getting sweet! I had 10 plates of sushi this afternoon... All better now!
What's better we get to lounge around in school and no teacher (except the *eh-hem* paddle pop) will bother us..xP

To think i can start Pokemon-ing again.. whee~~~~~

I gotta start preparing for my stay in Aussie edi... I recieved my Visa confirmation the other day.. so it's like 99.9 % going...
My parents are telling me all sorts of things I have to do..

"YOu're gonna start helping with Housework"
"You have to learn to cook and fix pipes"
"No using the com so much there"
"Studying first priority"
"No Dating"

And much more...

I dunno why but i think it will be fun though.. At least next time when I'm all old and wrinkly I can tell my Grandkids

"Oh your grandfather had to go to australia to study and be independant"

heh.. that's all for this Rebirthed post.. Will update again on Sunday!

Optimistic Pessimist

2008-10-17T10:39:00.003+08:00

So yea...

PMR's over!
JOY! JOY! JOY! *Throws a happy tantrum*

Now What?

Well, originally we WERE gonna go Sunway but decided not too... there was another group going but I didn't wanna go cuz well.. my closer friends aren't going so I go also nothing much to talk about..

So now I'm being like a sad little boy sittin' in front of my com and blogging.
I should look at the positives.

I can finally touch my com and NDS
No more spending hours in front of books
Stress free
No more spending hours in front of books
No more spending hours in front of books
No more spending hours in front of books

Ah well... I guess I should remain Optimistic

Happy Post-PMR everyone!

Mah Bazaar Experience!

HELLO! There's gerak gempur on monday but wtv.. i just gotta post this once to prevent my blog for dying... and hopefully you guys get the title..xD

By the way... THIS IS MY 100TH POST.. WAKAKAKAKAKAKA

I know it's nothing much compared to most of you guys but hey.. it's an accomplishment for me

There's so much to blog about... I guess I'll start with the news most of you should already know..
I've gotten the confirmation and enrollment letter to go study in Australia next year. Gonna really miss all the people here,the prefect board.. and everything else.

Ok.. don't really have to go into detail with that...

Geez.. there's so much to blog.. i don't know which to talk about first.
I really wish PMR would come quicker so that I could just get it over with...
Gerak Gempur was ok.. at least there's no homework nowadays..

You guys HAVE to check out Jason Mraz's new song "Make It Mine". It's really good.. as good as I'm Yours. Speaking of songs.. I went out with my parents that day and while we were waiting in line to get our food.. i saw this group of teens and one of the guys was listening to "The best damn thing " by avril and one of the girls said how could he listen to that song... it's meant for girls. Yes I was kinda eavesdropping but that's beside the point...

That DOES NOT make sense man.. so does that mean almost every song sang by female singers are off limits to guys.. hmm? Since they usually talk about the girl's relationship or sth like that.

Oh.. and Paddle Pop is still being as annoying as ever...
What else is there... err...

Hmm.. I thought i had more than that to blog about.. I think it's just all misplaced due to the cramming of sejarah, kh and geo notes into my head..

Oh.. I've been watching Mythbusters alot lately.. it's really quite interesting.
"Lucky" is an awesome song too..

I think i'm jumping from a topic to another random one.. meh..
wow.. my life has been boring.. there's nothing to blog about...
It's ok.. I'll make up for it after PMR..xD

HAPPY 100th POST TO MEEEEEEEEEEE~~~!!!!!

Freedom's Kingdom?!

2008-09-01T19:37:00.003+08:00

HELLO ALL!

I don't have much time so I'll just get straight to the point. Gerak Gempur's tomorrow. Hope it won't be too hard. I shouldn't be blogging. Anyway, Yesterday was Aqilah's surprise party. Had loads of fun! Sanesh and me were the first to arrive then mun hong and pang. The girls came later. We actually surprised Aqilah! and that's even after i accidentally slipped a tiny hint about it.

SO anyway, we ate.. and talked.. and opened her presents... she did anyway. Pang was talking about going to Sunway for the Merdeka countdown and asked if anyone was going. Then mun hong suggested if we could have it somewhere near hear instead just for the fun of it. Aqilah then very kindly offered to have it at her house cuz the original plan was just to stay till 10.30. So thank you Aqilah and your mum for letting us stay till like 12.30. Aqilah's mum also made the early birds a few T-shirts. It's nice... We planned to walk to the park and shout merdeka 7 times there but that was at 12.. so we watched a few vids and went live on UStream (tho no one was on..=_="). Syaza has been talking about a 7 Things spoof in school and I finally got to watch it. It was good... real good. So yadda, yadda, yadda...

Then midnight arrived.. not much fireworks this year though.. but maybe we just couldn't see it. Pang phoned Muidz and put him on loudspeaker and we wished him happy b'day as well... Us guys wore the shirt aunty gave us and off we went to the park. Saw some other dudes there playing bball (yes at midnight) and we just went over to the playground part and took pics!
then we actually shouted Merdeka 7 times and the bball dudes actually joined in at the last shout.. haha

It was a nice way to end the freedom we have... It's now crash studying.. around 39 days left to PMR.. oh the joy.. but after that... ohh... after that...MUAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

P.S Listen Closely to my blog song

Rejoiced Dining

2008-08-23T15:56:00.003+08:00

So... yesterday was prefect dinner.. and IT WAS AWESOME!!!
but it was over real quick tho.. who knew four hours would go by so quickly...

Anyway, I left the house at 5.30 cuz i had to go pick up sanesh and marissa and go help out at the place. When we reached there.. well.. there was nothing to do.. so yea
At around 7 ppl started to come and we just mingled around.
Then at eight we entered the hall and I went over to sit with
Tracey
Brynn
Aifa
Shermaine
Sharmaine
Isaac
Sim
Danielle
Tessa
We were actually supposed to reserve three spaces for Aqilah, Julia and Syaza but Sim was Tracey and Danielle's "date" and Isaac and Sharmaine we're kinda like together so we couldn't ask them to move. Sorry guys!

It was kinda fun tho.. had lots of laughs.. especially during En. Khalid's speech.. I dunno why but everyone at the table were laughing and En. Khalid kept staring at us... so yea
The food was pretty good and the vids by the form 5s were awesome. We form 3 didn't have time to practice so we asked Dain, Chris and Nikita to represent us.. hehe.. oops

As usual I didn't win anything from lucky draw and Aifa won best dressed for girls..xD
The form 3 guys kept shouting my name for best dressed girl... kinda annoying but managed to live through it...
The whole thing ended at 11.15 and we just went around taking pics after that.
I would put the pics here but Norton said one of the sites on photobucket was trying to hack my com so i'll just try again next time.

I think I will remember that night for a really long time... It was fun to just hang out with friends and everyone was looking good as well. To think that next year we, the form 4s next year might have to organize this is really... erm.. scary..
The seniors were so busy with everything.

I think I'll just go now..School's in another two days and i hardly read anything..

P.S Syaza.. you should keep straight hair!

It's like it never was...

2008-08-21T15:42:00.004+08:00

I'm really sorry if my blog titles make less and less sense

Yesterday was the gathering at the USJ 4 park. It was fun. The first 2 hours were spent on bball and waiting for Syaza. (Typical). Actually the whole morning was spent at the park doing random stuff. So, I met three new people yesterday. Goucelia, Yohann and Ian. They're great people. I mean, Syaza and Aifa talk about them all the time at school since they go to the same tuition. I see why they say it's hard to concentrate in tuition now. It's lik ethey're whole tuition is packed with fun people. It's kinda cool.

If someone were to ask me to describe those three people I met yesterday it would be these words.
Goucelia- Cheerful
Yohann- Friendly
Ian- Cool
I have this feeling after reading those words... Syaza and the rest of them are gonna start with the teasing and all but somehow... I'm starting to not care what other people think now. If you're wondering why, I'll reveal that soon enough...

So anyway.. back on track. At around 12 we moved to an alley to see Ian, Goucelia, Yohann, Mun Hong and Syaza do their film for the KWN project. It took around 90 mins to shoot one scene..xD
so yea.. we were kinda frying ourselves that time. After that went over to Syaza's house (as usual) and played a bit of Wii and PS2. Well, Yohann, Mun Hong and Ian did anyway. I had to leave at 3.30 cuz there was a meeting during that time. Well.. at least this holiday was kinda fun. Watched a movie, met new people and the dinner coming up on Friday. I would say this holiday is well spent.

By the way... I'm currently working on a novel-ish thing right now.. will tell you guys about it soon.

Olympaid sadness

2008-08-19T18:27:00.002+08:00

Well... i suppose everyone should know by now Lee Chong Wei lost to Lin Dan. Anyway, I was coming home from KFC cuz got free meal frm my aunty and i took away a popcorn chicken to snack to while watching the match... but it was depressing. I thought the match would be a good one but Chong Wei didn't have a chance to play at all... So it was really no fun. But it was funny how Lin Dan celebrated after that by throwing his racquet (Is that how you spell that?) and shoes to the crowd.. AND.. i also wonder why Chong Wei wears those two Gigantic-ism gold rings WHILE playing badminton.. i mean.. doesn't it make it hard to hols the racquet (?).
Not only that... China's top runner Liu Xiang had to pull out from the 110 m Hurdles cuz of injury. Everyone was waiting to see him...

Ok.. back to life
So today was Shu Run's celebration at Sunway. I got there at 11.10 and sanesh a little later. We actually was supposed to meet up at 11 but everytime i go early.. they're always late. So i decided to be a little late today. It turns out they were all here at 10 something.. bu tthey went off and didn't wait at Starbucks.. ugh.. Brandon then came down to meet us

So, wished Shu Run Happy B'Day and paid her for Wall-E tickets. Then the girls wanted to go shopping.. so as usual Brandon, Sanesh, Ryan and me split up.. we didn't know where to go so we went to the bowling alley to have a look. We wanted to play a game but it was fully booked and we had to wait 30 mins.. so we scratched it.
Then Brandon suggested we go to Nike and Adidas for the heck of it... so away we went.
After that we met up with Syaza and Julia at Secret Recipe to get Shu Run a cake.. then went to wendy's.. then split up again and we (the guys) had 1901 for lunch. then we were bored again and walking aimlessly... again.. so we decided to just pass time at A&W while playing with our phones. Faruq joined us at that time and rushed down to Jusco to get Shu Run's prez.

We went to the theatre.. bought our food and drinks then went in. Almost everyone came later... but as usual for almost every movie.. Julia and Syaza comes late and Aqilah always misses out...
The show was not bad... but not that good either.. it's just an average movie which is nice to pass time with. So after the movie.. we split up again and all the guys went to the food court..
then just walked around a bit more and went back.

It was a good day. A lot better than sitting at home in front of the TV watching Olympic the whole day... There's a reunion/gathering tomorrow at 8... i wonder if i should go....... hmmmmm

Fuzzle Chuzzle Puzzles

2008-08-15T19:42:00.002+08:00

WHOOOOPEEE YEAAAHOOOOOOOOOOOO
Trials are over. BIG WHOOP. Seriously, this is so lame. We get a weeks holiday but we can't exactly enjoy it that much cuz we still have one big baddie coming up. Sometimes i wish PMR was just next week so that we can get it over with and properly start enjoying ourselves.

Anyway, let's just get on with the blogging. SO as all of you know yesterday was last day of trials so as expected noone turns up in school today. I woke up late today cuz I knew there was no point in me going early. P.S I was forced to go to school.

So got there,it was boring, then Syamel,Chris,Sanesh,Charis,Shermaine,Tessa and Me went to the staffroom to pester teachers for out marks. We practically spent the whole day in that air-conditioned staffroom and playing boardgames in class. It was okay i guess.

After that we had Leo meeting. Did all the usual meeting stuff then cut coloured flags for a project..haha. Anyway Celine brought her phone to school so i took a look at the games. Guess what i found... THE ALL CLASSIC CHUZZLE! It's such a cool game.. I begged her to send me the file but she said no. So i found my own one. HAH! BUT... my phone's screen is too small to fit the chuzzle screen...haih..T_T
EDIT: MUAHAHAHA I FOUND ONE THAT FITS..but the graphics is a little lower compared to the original one.. oh well.. at least can play

Erhm..ok..
Got bad news today. Vila said we HAVE to come up with a performance for prefect dinner which is this Friday by Wed or we will face troubles. And we won't have time to practice.. We are so dead.......Oh.. and I'm on Register duty for dinner..haih

ok..that's all for now... Happy Holidays everyone!

Alternate Endings

2008-08-09T19:38:00.002+08:00

I have no idea what the title has got to do with anything but nevermind that.. ahem

TRIALS ARE IN ANOTHER FRIGGIN TWO DAYS!!!!!!

I am so dead.. my sejarah is still crappy as ever.. but let's skip all the moaning and complaining about trials and talk about today......... LEO Installation

Ok.. so i reached there around 12.30 and was feeling really awkward indeed.. so i just went up backstage and talked to Brandon, Sanesh and GY.. then i saw Yee Ling and she said go down to register. So i went gdown and then the security won't let me up again cuz it wasn't time.. I was stuck downstairs under the hot sun.. ugh

So anyway.. I kept begging Aqilah to give her backstage pass after she left cuz I was really bored sitting in the audience and needed to do something. Aqilah then described me as "Power Crazy".. pfft.. can you believe that?! Wait.. don't answer

Then it was time for the Inductees to get installed.. Because I went for the rehearsal Eunice asked me to walked first.. It was so freaky to be the first.. Kinda screwed up but nvm that.. hehe
So after that i returned to my seat all bored and then Celine suddenly was like.. eh Joon Keit, Satish, Deion and this other guy go to backstage now.. need ur help cuz most of the backstage ppl was in BoD. I was glad to be able to do something.. Let me just say it wasn't the fault of the performances that i was bored.. they were all nice.. i just needed good company..xD

so anyway.. back to the story.. I just helped Celine a little backstage then Aqilah came and said "you want my pass right?" then she gave it to me.. i was happy.. :)
So I spent the other half backstage.. it was sweet. Then the thing came to an end around 5 something and they turned off all the lights and left this disco/clubbing type of light on while playing clubbing music so all the seniors went up to the stage and dance like there's no tomorrow... It was really like being at a club.. everyone was partying so fun-ish i wanted to join but i'd be a weirdo to join the seniors who i don't know that well and dance so yea.. i didn't

and that's pretty much all we did... It was a fun day.. so yea.. I'm Officially LEO.ROAR ROAR ROAR... haha

I guess i should go back to studying again.. peace out

Mawwie Had A Wittle Wamb

2008-07-26T20:40:00.003+08:00

HEY HEY YO YO I DON'T LIKE YOUR.....

complete the sentence..

So yea.. hi..

My blog's been dead.. meh..

so let's Reraise it shall we??

I've been playing Final Fantasy Tactics A2 recently.. this game is the KOOLEST!

well.. i know i said that for TWEWY and Phoenix Wright as well but they all are good!

FFTA2 is for NDS and the gameplay is so different from normal FF games.

It's like you take turns (as usual) but this time ur on this map where u move around and attack using skills or regular... it's nice cuz you actually have to know a good position to stand in cuz if you get hit on the sides or the back you get extra damage..

I don't think i should be blogging about FFTA2 .. must be boring for you guys to read.. and worse... trials are in.. what... 2 weeks?!

Oh...and a few days ago I played Wazza Words.. it's like snake and ladders and scrabble all mixed together... kinda fun.. but nerdy-ish

And now.. i'ma go into one of my rants.. HERE WE GO!! *in that mario-ish voice*

So as usual Thursday comes by and Paddle Pop comes to our class for Sivik...

IT WAS HORRIBLE.. imean.. putting up with her usually was already bad enough... but last Thursday was a DISASTER!

She suddenly comes through the back door and scolds us for not doing her Go Green ICare project...Hey teach! we already brought those plants and ripped ourselves 4 bucks for 2 ugly badges.. what more do you want.. (ok.. so maybe that's not too bad.. but i'm not done!)

So she goes on about how we should have gone and painted her Mural at the back and how dissapointed she was. Then she went on and "compliment" us about how we were losers, and mindless robots, and brats (WTH... BRATS?!), and erm... a whole lot of other stuff... Then she said the "golongan" orang who really cared about things were hampir pupus in the new generation.. So indirectly.. she's kinda implying that she cares..=_=

I cannot imagine how those ppl in form 4 and 5 survive with her being ur EST or some other subject as the teacher...Once a week with her is bad enough..

ok.. /end rant

Now that that's out of the system... I went for Leo Installation Rehearsal today...

followed Manveer and got there at 2.30.. Ai Ping wasn't there yet so we waited for her downstairs.. btw We =

Ellisa

Manveer

Sanesh

Guo Yao

Kay Vin

so while waiting.. I did This vvvvv with Ellisa's Shades

Hehe.. i look weird I know.. but wtv..xD

So Ai Ping finally arrived...

Went up to the extremely HOT Hall and practiced a little then went with GY,Manveer,Kayvin and Sanesh to A&W... Had the classic Rootbeer float.. and went home..

We also heard a banshee at A&W.. will explain next time...

GTG now.. rushy post..xD

WoWoWo Yo Bot

2008-07-17T18:08:00.002+08:00

So... Monday was installation... IT was nice.. though weird walking down that lane alone.. anyway
i'll skip to the part of the performance.. the form 4s did an awesome play as usual.. and when it got to our turn.. we were really not ready and such.. so yea.. the mic was retarded the "walkway" was too short and all that stuff.. but it was nice after that how the seniors got us the Bilik Seminar and showed us a few vids AND ordered pizza.. thanks guys!

I'm not really blogging much this time cuz.. well... nothing much happened... and aifa and syaza almost said all the stuff that's happen so meh..

erm... i think i'm just posting this entry for the sake of posting an entry.. haha but there is one thing i'd like to say

Today Syaza,Julia,Aqilah and me started continuing a story and we got a whole ridiculous one out of it... so that got me to think.. i think i might make a blog solely dedicated to wriite a story.. and maybe add a new chapter every week or something... so yea.. whaddya think?

ok.. i;ll blog again when more interesting stuff shows up.. cya

Clean and Chill

2008-07-12T19:03:00.004+08:00

Hi all.. been some time since I updated.. can't use the com so i just update at my cuz hse..
P.S. Rmb to keep reading all the way to the bottom!

anyway.. today was Prefect Room CleanUp day... And even though it was about cleaning up.. i enjoyed 150%.. it's just fun to do stuff with friends.. whatever it is...
So i arrived a little late and they already started claeaning up.. so ah well.. wtv.. just helped around a bit and carried a few chairs la dee da.. then a fun thing came up..

They had to clean the cupboards so they took out all the barang rampasan from 2-5 years ago.. and wanted to dump everything.. but we being the sensible and good non-wasting prefects decided to take the good stuff and only toss the useless ones.. I manage to get myself those rampas-ed Maple Cash Cards 2 years ago.. oh how i wantd those then.. but they were used so.. sigh.. the designs were like limited edition so it was a good thing too i guess..
I also grabbed 2 outdated versions of RO.. for my cuz since he always wants to play RO.. hopefully it can get updated..

so after that Me,Manveer Daryl and a few other guys had to cut the linoleum to little pieces to toss.. so me and daryl took pens and viciously stabbed the linoleum making holes in them and tearing them apart.. it was fun.. Azzri also helped with his penknife..
then went to settle some stuff in the dewan.. and came back to the prefect room to find like 10 ppl struggling to open one pail of paint.. so funny.. haha

then obviously we started painting.. Brynn got paint all over her courtesy of Saheb... then a few other ppl and me slacked a bit and Daryl, Aifa, Tracey, Brynn and me decided to head on to 7-11 to get some drinks.. I tried Anything for the first time.. got Orange tho.. unlucky..
BTW.. did you know it was TnB and Aifa's fisrt time walking from school to 7-11.. that's sad..

so after that just helped a bit more by carring satuff and then Daryl, Aifa, Tracey, Brynn, Kirstin, Su Yin, Dain, Rachel and me sat at the foyer C with the wind blowing strongly and passed kirstin's netball around and shared random facts about ourselves.. so nice la.. i had to leave at 1.45 cuz i had tuition.. if i didn't.. who know's what time

So anyway...I am so glad to have gone today.. It made me realise how nice and important the prefect board was to me.. especially the ppl in it.. What i really enjoyed today was being able to mingle with the juniors and talk to the seniors... This made me realise how wrong i was of them..
It was nice talking to the juniors about random things... especially a selected few... and it was even nicer to find out that seniors who i thought were snobby and unfriendly turned out to be so friendly and nice... with one or two exceptions anyway...

i really hope things can always go so nice in school... I realise how important my friends are to me.. and if i were to leave.. i think apart from my parents.. they'll be the ones i miss the most..

Before i end.. i would like to say this to Kirstin.......

It has been awesome having you as a senior and a friend this whole time... I think now that ur stepping down soon.. You have been really nice.. i'm glad you agreed to be a friend.. Thanks again for everything and you will be missed..

I would type more about my friends and how i think each and every one of them is cool in full detail but i am not exactly leaving or anything yet.. so i'll just keep them locked away in my heart for now.. but know this.. all you ppl who always talk to me.. and especially the ppl i was with today.. you guys ROCK... rmb that.. you guys are awesome friends.. even though most of you tease me *cough*JuliaSyazaAqilahAifa*cough*

Ok... i think i'll end this emotional streak now.. adios and goodbye

Closed Day

2008-07-04T15:06:00.004+08:00

Hey y'all!

So today was Open Day.. It should be the day almost everyone dreads right?? the day we get our REPORT CARDS! and parents meet with teachers... *dun dun dah!*

Well.. for me.. today was ONE OF THE BEST DAYS EVER!

let me start....

so got to school.. assigned to gate duty.. but pretty short while later moved to foyer A cuz of rain.
Since we were repeatedly saying "GOod Morning" and "Have A NIce Day", Syaza decided to record us saying that.. so when a parent passed.. syaza playe dit and the parents were like.. o_0
That was funny.. then we ordered McD but the guy won't let us order cuz we were underage and in school.. so we asked Julia's Mum for help.. thx aunty!

And the guy came 45 mins later.. as usual.. late..=_=
and on the reciept it wrote there
Person Who Ordered: Cikgu Norashikin
Place: SMK USJ 4 Bilik Guru
Special Instructions: Plz sent to main gate. Prefects will take from there.

ahahahahaha... nice to be a prefect...xD
so we had our meal in the canteen then went to prefect room to discuss our Form 3 performance.. lotsa fun.

In the end the only ppl who remained were
1. Syaza
2. Me
3. Tracey
4. Brynn
5. Aifa
6. Danielle
7. Satpreet

so we decided to get a head start and started practicing.. hella funny man!
then the afternoon session wanted to use the room so we had to move to the corridors on Block B
At first we were practicing in a closed corridor then we noticed a lot of juniros around so we wanted to make a fool of ourselves in front of the juniors. We moved to an open corridor where everyone could see and did this...

so yea... then Tracey and Brynn gave us this idea where we go in a line and sing "Who LEt The Dogs Out" in the prefect room while skipping around the tables with the juniors doing merit-demerit in there.. We did it and seriously laughed at their faces.. they were like..." What the heck are these seniors doing?!?" haha.. see we're good seniros.. "meriah-ing" their boring merit demerit

so yea.. i'd say today was a cooooooool day... btw.. how do you guys like my new blog song?? Till next time... Chiao

Strangely Deranged

2008-07-01T15:49:00.002+08:00

So today was the last GM for the board of 07/08..

I dunno how to describe it but.. first..

Gratz to Aqilah for getting Pegawai Keceriaan
Gratz to Aifa for getting Naib Setiausaha
and also Gratz to everyone else who got a post..
I got Naib Pegawai Teknikal but that's nothing to talk about...
but quite frankly.. i don't really care what post i get.. Maybe i was just not cut out for other posts... and it's not like i will probably be holding the post long anyway...

But even if i am not jealous of other ppl getting other posts.. I am quite shock of how Ketua perhimpunan got changed to Penolong Ketua Pengawas 3.. i mean.. that title upgrades Ketua Perhimpunan so much... I was also kinda amazed that Dain got Naib Quartermaster.. hey don't get me wrong.. not saying it's unfair or anything.. it's just that Dain's well.. not really cut out to carry chairs is he?? i thought Manveer would be more suitable but then again.. not my choice.

But what i really wanna say in this post is to all the seniors.. even if they don't read my blog..
Admittedly.. i used to think some of the seniors were out to get me.. despise me and such.. and i still have that feeling for 2 of them... 1 of them still in the board.. but there are so many who i actually thought wrongly of...

But after today..i think i got most of them wrong.. i guess i was just.. "kuat sangsi" about things.. i hope i'm "kuat sangsi" about the other two as well.. but i'm pretty sure i'm not.. about one of them anyway...

so yea.. guess that's all.. so erm..till next time

Get smart-er!

2008-06-28T19:06:00.002+08:00

ahh... finally.. some time to blog...

so as syaza/aifa and whoever else stated in their blogs.. there was merit demerit again on last thurs.. sadly my name wasn't called.. all the fun ppl were there.. oh well..

so anyway.. yesterday i went to nigel's house to see that game WoW a.k.a Wolrd of Warcraft.. pretty nice.. so i chose this Gnome to be my character..so they asked me to give it a name... so while nigel was helping me think of a name.. then it hit me..

GNAME THE GNOME!

geddit??? Name the gnome.. Gname the Gnome?? xD
so like when ppl ask what's ur character's name? i can go Gname..xD
Cheesy.. i like

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

so anyway.. today was ellisa's "party" at sunway... time was supposed to be 10.30 but they all reached at 10.50.. so..
*NOTE TO SELF* always come 15 mins later then stated time when going out with them *NOTE TO SELF*

so yea.. it turned out ellisa forgot to invite some ppl so i was the only guy..=_=
excluding ellisa's bf anyway..
So it was pretty sad for me.. while they walked around shop[ping for clothes.. i had to tag along and DID NOT want to go in those shops.. so yea..

Had sushi for lunch.. Yummehz but Expensive!
The guy at the cahier was the manager and when i went to pay the bill the guy was like "did you and your friends enjoy your meal?" so i answered yes.. then the guy was like punching in the bill etc.. then i saw the bill for 8 ppl was like 155 bucks.. when i was about to pay the guy reduced it to 141.. so he gave us 10 % discount for no reason.. must be cuz we're all so nice..xD

later b4 our movie which was Get Smart at 2.10 Aqilah had to go back at 1 so me julia and syaza followed her to the entrance and the used it as an excuse to split up from ellisa and all and went to find ellisa's present.. I TELL YOU.. finding presents with julia and syaza is tiring.. they get sidetracked so easily..@_@ In the end we bought her a pink Handbag and this necklace.

So after that we got our popcorn and went to see Get Smart.. THIS SHOW IS A MUST WATCH!!!!!!! It's so funny that it's funny... ok that didn't make sense but it was really good.. i give it a 8.3/10

so after that i had to go soon, i waited for julia and all to finish praying. I was sitting outside alone then this college dude came and asked me.

Dude: "Hi, I'm doing and assignment for my college and wa swondewring if you could do this survey?"
Me: "Oh.. ok.. no prob"
*does survey*
Dude: "so do you work around here?"
Me: *laughs* "No.. I'm actually still in school "
Dude: "Oh.. So you're Form 5?"
Me: o_0 "No.. I'm just Form 3..."
Dude: " Oh really?? Cuz you looked mature"

And yea... i dunno if it was an insult or a compliment so i'll take it as an insulting compliment...

Guess that's all for now.. b4 i wrap this up...
Some adults are so retarded.. they make every small issue and make it so huge you have to argue about it.. geez.. and they say the older ppl should set an example.. pfft

I have no idea what my title means but wtv...

ok..lemme back track to last sunday for father's day.

Went to Ulu Yam with my father's side relatives to celebrate by having lunch..it wa slike an hour's drive but got nice sceneries so..okok la...

then after lunch the ppl in my dad's car (my family and another cousind family/two families out of 5) decided to go to the Taman Negeri Selangor to just have a look around since we were already there.

They charge ppl a buck per person.. after paying.. we realised there was another FREE entrance.. DAMN.. RIP OFF!

so ok fine.... me and two of my cousins went into the river WITHOUT an extra change of clothes.. so if we got wet.. we would have to go home wet..in the car...
so we pulle dour pants reallllllll high up and folded it as well.. the water wasn't very deep for me..
only got my legs wet..didn't hit the pants...but would have probably got syaza or fafia wet if they went in...
heh.. not implying you guys are short or anything..xD

ok..so we decided to see who could go the deepest... and furthest..
so me and another cousin continued on while one pulled out.. and there we were.. being weirdos walking in a river with our pants high up while everyone else was splashing in the water...

and it happened...

this stupid kid came rushing by and pushed me and my cousin down.. my cuz got lucky and held on the a branch but i was standing on a rock so i slipped and fell..SPLASH..=_=

and i had to sit in the car all wet..good thing the seat was leather..

ok... erm.. back to now... i guess there really isn't much to talk about.. oh wait.. here's one

last thursday was merit demerit.. ppl who went were Me, Kirstin, Fafa, Shermaine, Marissa, Acacia, Syamel, Rachel and Su Yin.

Fafa told me it was until 4.. fine wtv.. then went in the prefect room..Kirstin and the rest were already there and guess what... merit demerit was finished at 2... pfft...
since fafa and shermaine told their parents they'd be home at around 3.30... We decided to just lepak in the room and chat..haha... around 2.45 marissa wanted to go back but it started thunder-ing and lightning-ing so she stayed.. then the rain didn't stop and i had to get a ride from aifa's mum.. left my bike in school..walked back to get it later.. didn't realise school was so far away on foot..>.<

and thats all for now.. till the next update..

PS I got some news from my parents.. shocked me..w ill tell you guys next time

RULE1. People who have been tagged must write their answers on their blogs and replace any question that they dislike with a new question formulated by themselves..

RULE 2. Tag 5 people to do this quiz and those who are tagged cannot refuse. These people must state who they were tagged by and cannot tag the person whom they were tagged by. Continue this game by sending it to other people.

Ok...so as you can see by rule 2.. i cannot refuse.. so since two ppl tagged me..i'll do this..

TAGGED BY SYAZA AND MUN HONG!

ok..let's begin

1. If your lover betrayed you, what will your reaction be?
I'll make it look like nothing has happen then plot to take revenge..or i'll just go emo and go along lines like "Just go the hell away" or "I don't get relationships...never have...never will" but maybe not do that my entire life..

2. If you can have a dream to come true, what would it be?
To control time..haha... that'll be nice.. then during exams can pause time and go out refer a book and go back in then resume time. haha..WHEEE~~~~

3. Whose butt would you like to kick?
Well it would depend on which butt kicking you mean.. butt kicking physically or the "I beat you in this thing".

4. What would you do with a billion dollars?
Buy the internet..ok..maybe not..i dunno...use it to enjoy life?

5. What is so nice about ur lover?
Someone to complain to and she won't even say anything i don't wanna hear and the best part is... she can turn INVISIBLE... but a freak accident happened and now she's stuck that way..sad..
6. Which is more blessed, loving someone or being loved by someone?
Being loved by someone of course!

7. How long do you intend to wait for someone you really love?
I guess it would really depend how old i am during that time.. but i'm guessing around 3 years??lol... dunno

8. If the person you secretly like is already attached, what would you do?
"Hi this is Joon Keit, _____'s boyfriend, and i suggest you stop bugging her. What?! you won't? Fine, I challenge you to a dance off! Do I wanna battle? Yes i wanna battle!..YOU'RE GOING DOWN!"

9. Is there anything that has made you extremely happy?
Friends makes me happy. Getting what i always wanted helps too..xP

10. What takes you down the fastest?
Ugh..When all sorts of problems start coming i guess...nagging by parents or getting bad marks..loads of stuff..

11. How would you see yourself in ten years time?
Erm.. prolly going out with someone during/after college and doing part time jobs??haha

12. Who is currently the most important people to you
As always, Family and Friends

13. What kind of person do you think the person who tagged you is?
Syaza- Cheerful most of the time, fun to be around
Mun Hong- Great joker, Nice guy

Single and rich... i'm sure can get someone later in life..xP

15. What's the first thing you do when you wake up?

16. Would you give all in a relationship?
Of course...but the other party must as well!

Me: 3
Julia: 8
Aqilah: 5-7? (forgot..oops)
Syaza: 12

teruk right?? then we tried going for one whole school day.. gave up in the first hour..too hard..

"Can one!"
"Come On la!"
"Can ah?"
I rmb someone posted on a forum what is the meaning of lah... the things ppl come up with as the meaning..

2008-06-02T18:28:00.002+08:00

Hey everyone..how's ur holidays going? Having fun doing folios?

I'm just gonna do "writing" this time cuz my aunty's cam has no battery so i'll upload the pics next time. Now..where was I...

Day 5 (Tuesday)
erm...woke up freezing half to death... went to a market at a place called Dandennong
walked walked and walked....nothing much this day.

Day 6 (Wed.)
FOllowed my aunty to send one of my cousins to swimming lesson and went to visit a school here in Melbourne. PArkdale high school or sumthin like that... after hearing what the International Student Teacher had to say... I should come here next year (Grade 10) so that it'll be easier to catch up and learn the syllabus and get used to stuff cuz Grade 11 and 12 is like uber serious study. I had alook on the subjects they offer..so nice..can choose.. there's like Food Technology, Drama, Different kinds of maths and science, Advance english, FRENCH, and many more. that time my parents say 30% chance i'll be coming next year. Anyway..after that we went to a shopping centre after picking up my cousin. Bought all ur souvenirs here.. you can thank me anytime..xD I was looking everywhere for CAKESTERS but they don't have..T_T

Day 7 (Thurs)
erm...didn't do much today...and forgot what i did also..so yea.. oops?

Day 8 (Fri)
eheh...same as Day 7..i'll try and rmb and post next time..but i knwo i walked along a beac..so ZETTA relaxing.

Day 9 (Sat)
Went to Phillip Island to see PENGUINS! on the way we stopped at this wildlife park. we went in and there was this land and we wnet in.. suddenly..this kangaroo came hopping towards us and we were like...WOA! We TOUCHED it... the fur was like..ZETTA soft! then this whole group came so we were like snapping pics here and there..it was nice.
Also saw Koalas but they were sleeping..so...meh.. will post the pics later.
After that we went to a chocolate factory. bought dark choc mints..so rich and minty..xP
Went to this Public BBQ area and BBQed Sausages/lamb/beef... ZETTA delicious!
then went to see some nice views by the Cliffs/seaside..wind was really blowing so it was cold.
then we waited and lazed around till dark (aound 5.45pm) and went to see the penguins.
It wa sfunny seeing them come out of the water walk in their funny way and then feel scared and run back to the water...i was like..5 cm away from one of them..but we couldn't touch them cuz it will frighten them and no photos for some reason...

Day 10 (Sun.)
Went to the city for a walk. At night some other relatives came and we had a family get together. My aunty's parents gave me 100$ AUD..that's like 300 RM!

Day 11 (Today)
In the morning went to this other school called Mordialloc. The teachers there were ZETTA nice and it was kinda a cool school.. they had this common room and stuff and they explained even more about coming to australia for studying and encouraged me to come next year too. so my parents were like..hmm... i see..and i think there's a 50/50 chance of me coming here so..meh... Oh.. and when I had to talk and introduce myself i had to use Keith cuz Joon Keit just seemed weird.. so when the lady was like.. how old are you Keith..I was a little blur and then only answered... IF i do come..i'll have to get used to that name..

That's all i guess..up till now..TWEWY is still rocking and it's like 6-9 degress outside now during the night cuz it's the scond day of winter..so you can actually see ur breath..lulz..
so yea.. have a ZETTA day

P.S If you are guessing what ZETTA is..ask Syaza..she should kno wif she's far enough in TWEWY

You Puny HECTOPASCALS! SINE! COSINE! TANGENT!

Australian Log #1

2008-05-26T19:46:00.003+08:00

Hey guys..how's ur hols??? could someone send my condolensence(however you spell it) to

just kidding fafia

so i'll just blog a little on sydney..and get some pics up..so this is gonna be a post with pics and long long entries..xP

DAY 1
We reached sydney about 6.30 am australian time..so it was like..4.30 am in malaysia..@_@
didn't get any sleep on board cuz this baby girl kept crying..annoyingness!
Met my other aunt frm NZ at around 8 and went to the apartmen we booked..it was cozy and nice... and cold..yeap..the floor was freezing..especially at night..
We got ourselves a map and started wlking around.. went to Chinatown and Paddy's Market+Dahlin'Harbour..or something sounding like that...
We really kinda overdid it and walked too much(transport was expensive and we didn't have a car..) so our feet was killing us when we reache dthe apartment at night..

DAY 2
One of my aunty's friend took us around and we learned how to use the train and bus system..:o yay..not much walkign left..well..not really...but shorter la..
Nothing much interesting happened here but we did visit this place called manly and visited this famous beach there.. and had German sausages and pork knuckle for lunch..UBER DELICIOUS!

DAY 3
Had to wake up at 6.30 am(4.30 malaysian)..Went to a place called Blue Mountain with another relative of mine.. it was cold..nice scenery..
and i'll just post pics for this day...too lazy to post about it..

DAY 4
Only woke up at 9 (7 Malaysian) cuz we had no plans in the morn..leaving for melbourne at 12.25..so yea..boarded plane..yadda yadda yadda... my aunty in Melbourne met up with us with my two kid cousins... went to have burger... then came to my uncle's hse..so nice la..facing a pond and their backyard's so cool.. migh ttake pics one day..

so that's basically an outline of what i did..now time for pics.. sorry if the images are too big or blur

Sydney Opera House

Happy HOlidays

We are HISTORY..WEEE~~~~

2008-05-21T17:22:00.003+08:00

i said it a lot of times today but for one last time..

AT least next time our sejarah test will be a lot easier cuz we're HISTORY!

ok..joking aside..i'mma make this a short post cuz gotta go study GEO.. i'm gonna be gone tomorrow night for two weeks...i bet you guys are cleberating me going off..hah!

so yea..can't wait till exams are over..ugh..just one more day..^_^

i changed my blog song..LISTEN TO IT!

It's nice...

that's all...gonna try and update in australia if my uncle let me use his com... Adios and Early Happy Holidays to you guys!

You THink you cool?!

2008-05-12T17:53:00.002+08:00

haiz...exam's in TWO more days and i'm blogging..great job Joon Keit..

anyway...i hardly studied during the weekends..got la very slightly of maths and sej..but not much... i spent so much time on my folios cuz i won't have time to do it during thte hols...

i dunno how i'm gonna sit for the Sej exam..seriously... all those sultan and raja names in form one KILLS! and all those other facts in form 2+3 is not helping too...

hmm..i think i might change my blog song soon..when i have more time..like when i'm in australia maybe..

I went on KevChat today to take a break from studying/KK. FOund out they were playing Never Have I Ever and I Have (opposite of the other game) so they were finding more ppl to join by going to another channel..i could have gone seeing as i got webcam+mic but my mum wanted to use that time..so no chance...maybe got another time la..

what else is there to talk about...oh right

last saturday my parents+uncles+aunties brought my grandma out for dinner for Mother's Day.
My aunty already preordered the menu and one of the dish was deep fried pork knuckle with sauce...

FACT: it tastes awesome..very crispy and sweet with sauce..

BUT the restaurant served us another dish which uses pork knuckle also..but it was in soup

FACT 2: once you put deep fried pork knuckle in soup it gets soggy and not nice

so my dad asked the manager...this is different from what we ordered..we asked for
deep fried pork knuckle with sauce.. and guess what the lady said...-_-

"Oh it is sauce..see..It's our special SOUP sauce..."
COME ON... soup is soup..sauce is sauce... and that snobby manager didn't even apologize
I thought the customer was always right..geez

i guess that's it for now..so erm yea..bye

AMAZING!

2008-05-05T14:38:00.003+08:00

Doing KK right now..so i'ma make this slightly "short".

I can't belive i managed to live through the weekends without touching my DS and Com...
i feel so proud now..=)...only 5 more months to go..yay..

it's so boring when u can't use the com or play games... all i could do was watch TV..or revision..
and a right-minded person would choose the more fun thing studying right!..hehehe..i mean Television..yea...

anyway, went to Sunway on saturday to celebrate Julia's b'day...was supposed to meet at 10.30 but as usual..girls..always turn up late..>.>
so i went to Popular to see if i could find a good book to give my mum fo rMother's Day but there wasn't really anything... i went back to the meeting place at around 10.48 and saw Brandon there even though he said he wasn't gonna come..turns out he walked from his bball tourney..

so there we were waiting for Julia,Aqilah and Syaza who finally came at 11... Seems like they forgot to fetch Syaza and only realised it after going half way..zzzz..

didn't do much..went to book tickets for Sky Of Love (which i didn't watch cuz i had to go home early...but brandon did..xD) then went to this part of Sunway which i have no idea what it's called and palyed this drum game..wanted to play DDR but this lady was hogging the machine so too bad...

then we went to minitoons(?) or something like that..lots of nice knick-knacks there...but something bad happened there...

ok..i wouldn't say it was that bad..just unfortunate...they had lots of nice candy so brandon and syaza decided to get some.. Brandon aciddentally pulled out one of the boxes while he was taking and dropped the whole box... so they asked him to buy it along with the ones he already chose...

What i don't understand is..if it's safe to be eaten since brandon had to buy it..why couldn't they just put it back in the box and pretended nothing happened... i bet they just wanted money..
because of that..brandon had to pay like 29 bucks to cover the cost..

i wanted to buy marshmallows to play ChubbyBunny but they all were like..don't want la..
so oh well... they had the perfect ones..nice size also..

after that, we went to Jusco to buy..TAKOYAKI! a.k.a Octopus Balls... They said i was lame for buying the Cheese and Chicken ham one but they kinda liked it anyway..HAH!
but poor brandon didn't get any..since he was cleaned out by those gummis..

Then we had Sushi..yupp...SUSHI!
it was kinda cheap..like 11 pcs for 7 bucks..5 big ones and 6 small ones normally it's like a buck each or something like that...

I had to go fo tuition after that..so i wouldn't know what happened..but it seems the movie was sad and Chia Mei and Aqilah cried..btw..Chia Mei came when i was about to leave..

i don't think there's anything else to blog about..i don't have interseting weird facts like aifa does..so i'll update again when i get the chance..

P.S Exams in 9 Days..JOY!...=_=

P.P.S I'm going Australia in 18 days..xD

DeMOOralized...

2008-04-30T17:32:00.008+08:00

so anyway... before i cont...i'm gonna say that...tomorrow's my last day of using comp..for fun anyway..yep..no more enjoying myself playing comp games..and no more blogging..unless any of the following happens:

1) I do my KK and just take the opportunity to update
2)My mum's in a good mood and gives me 30 mins to use

so yea..it'll probably be 1 all the time..=_=

anyway...hope you guys will like the new blog song.

and let's not forget......

i think that has taught me not to be a foolish fool who does foolish things and gets into deep trouble...
ok..that didn't turn out right...

ok..i'm gonna go nerd for a while here..er hem...
OMG!!! Pokemon Mystery Dungeon 2 IS OUT ON DS!!!!!
