Rum and Raisins

Just hopeful

2011-11-30T23:29:00.000+08:00

Blogging is really not my past routine to keep, but its nice to have a place to post something.

I'm tired and really drained. I know things will pass. It is just a matter of time but the process of going through it is really tough. Sometimes I realize I put really high expectation on myself but if I don't they perhaps nothing can be achieved. Still, I hoped. Like today, it was suppose to be a total blow but I somehow took it coolly and feel grateful more than anything. Sometimes we gotta look past things and realize that we're blessed after all. Second chances don't come all the time and I'd like to say 'thank you.

At least with this little hope of a second chance, maybe things will not be as bad as it already was :)

There is still time for things to turn out differently. Maybe not the best but at least better than before... but all effort in okeh~

Crossroads

2011-03-25T14:55:00.000+08:00

In my head, there's yet so many uncertainties. Even with this blog venting i know very well that i won't be able to get answers for my confusion. Instead i resolve this time to searching for quotes and hope that it would somehow in a little way offer me some insight.

Have you ever had so much in your mind that you wake up each morning feeling more tired that ever......

Why couldn't i make up my mind and just be a lil' more brave to go for the things i really want... why must there always be so much to consider...

Maybe i should try flipping a coin... and cross my fingers hoping that before the coin touches the ground i would have decide what i have wanted all the while. If it drops and i still haven come up with anything, then i guess even if i spend a whole day flipping its only a waste of time

I should be where i was placed...but half of me wants to be rebellious. I want to hold up a white flag but what if its not what i want, will i be able to walk with faith.... The question is: Am i capable?

Perhaps all these while the only dilemma was that if the change happens then i would become a wolf. Would i be able to endure all these while remaining strong enough to still run ahead challenging myself and achieving the standards i've set for myself?

Alicia, this quote is for you too in hope that it would encourage you because i thought its rather true although very little will choose this path to walk alone cause it will be too painful. But perhaps someday, this pain would give you no regrets in your decision.

And i wish one day i would be able to say "I have no regrets" no matter what decisions i'm bound to make.

Limits

2011-03-18T00:55:00.001+08:00

The urge to write something just surfaces tonight together with alot of mixed feelings that i've been carrying with me so that many weeks. A final breakdown i guess.... Listening to the same album same song again and again with lyrics i understand not didn't clear my head. I'm tired physically and mentally but i don't feel like going to bed. Nothing within seems right and i feel lost.

Perhaps i should stop comparing or out-do myself... Even more i wish some feelings were delete-able. But then maybe i should try turn this feelings into a drive that enables me to re-think my directions and understand my limits.

I need time...but time, will you at this time wait for me

Desperate for a holiday, an escape.

There goes....all of it

2010-12-01T02:26:00.005+08:00

Things or rather time just slips away so easily yet swiftly and here am i sitting in front of my lappy in the early hours of december the beginning and realise that i should make use of my time better than this. All the thoughts of wanting to enjoy and accomplish many many things since the beginning of sorrows when the subjects begin to get heavy (at least for me) seem to have vanish and i am passing each day without aims, sleeping at the wrong hours of the days and stalking morning cartoons and dramas on tv.

Well, that's it then. A semester has pass and gone-by and you might have asked deep inside "Is this the uni life you'd expect then?" But i say "Oh well, all the same all the same except with more freedom in every sense almost and eating becomes only a need no longer enjoyable." But look... this is how it was like

Orientation was a total torture as the lack of sleep only makes aches all over when you're require to sit all day listening to helpful talks (which mostly was very uninformative) but the seniors were good people that taught us alot thou i do not deny that as on earth yet are they the good and the 'neevil'. No sooner classes commence and i was non the less still blur and found hard to adapt to certain things which i realise i'd just gotta bear with it and if ever they annoy me i can only curse under my breath...

So the seniors weren't scary... my room seniors weren't bad either. Nice people they are, really. That i am glad to have their companionship to understand. The process of getting to know people was the gist of it... lets say we've found good ones and also hard ones, funny ones and also crazy ones not forgetting all the fb and dinner kaki's. And then the seed grows to blossom...

University was absurdly humongous and the sad part is that one bus doesn't go around so my legs are strong now eh.. Then there's the monday blues where you have 8am class and there's a multitude standing and fighting for a seemingly tiny bus under the rushing crowd. Life's survival law:survival of the fittest. Fight or push your way thru and most of the time i just get sucked up into the bus without trying hard cause its like that. Nightmare is was... yes.

Library in which most of the time i'd be seen in there if there's break in between cause by the time you'd reach the bed to take a breath its time to rush for the coming class.... that's how large the comparison was. But rather call yourself student eh if library is no second home for you?

Block P3 Room 432 was the place of rest together with 3 other people. You can say that this 3feet wide place is my corner where i eat, sleep and die lol... Cramp ain't it but i manage somehow with loads of books and other unreasonable stuffs. As time goes, i eventually share my bed with them books.

Then going to uni also made sleep at the time where most people are almost waking or i sleep at irregular hours like 7-9pm and haven had dinner. It was a silly thing to do but you just get so tired nothing else mattered not when we have tests like that's the only thing that mattered or tutorials which have tutors that might kill you if you didn't finish them or assignments all over with group mates rendered no point nor lab reports should one take it seriously. Then the physics prof always says "you should find time to do your exercise everyday" Hullo.... whats with my 24 hours i wonder?

Do silly things that the cctv man might laugh his head off is they really do have one.. So you raid the lecture hall when the last class ended too early or the lecturer just decided to play sick. Fun tho....

In the midst of the green campus we all call 'forest' there's is indeed a bridge that leads us to the glorious MCD which we celebrated our first month of uni life... with much complains and comments on college, roommates, coursemates and all that.

No sooner did we discover porky noodles instead of having economy rice daily which was getting kinda dull.

There was also joyce's birthday celebrated by the mbs gang... Our school happen to be the funny ones which had too many enrolment which result of the 'sama sekolah' gang but it was good, like a second chance as i didn't hold this opportunity to get to know them better at school. Never talked to chester, menghua and i always had conversations on toilet rolls and null, hankee was always the help station and alicia was still a distant friend until

We became inseparable in uni except for the times when i left for home.. apologies on that. Humans are just weird things and i never seen it come too. But we're best buddies now and still lots to share and learn up till 4years. Having you as a friend is a great comfort to the heart really...

Put all eating aside, there are yet many activities participated and yields a smile and unforgettable memories. Poignant ones... The tanglung celebration of our college and letting off the gigantic helium lantern was a first time. Had camps with so low in budget that i almost manage thru 3 days without a wholesome shower (nao nao... its a camp that you'd even have to cook your own food and there is only 2 toilets with almost 80 people) without proper sleep until when i got back to my room for the entire 20yrs of life i learned to enjoy a nice cold bath and sleep well. Only too well because on this particular day was the beginning of truant. Oh well.....

Intercollege sports - The game of squash that bonds not to mention all the 'ouch and ahhhh' that even counterpain doesn't offer relieve. Victory wasn't ours but they did give us an experience and the leaning of this game was indeed fun minus tiring as trainings are all at night (the only time where most do not have class... and yes, there are classes from 8-10pm in upm) There's rugby which i didn't get to watch the game because i was dying in tutorial classes and basketball which i begin to enjoy watching and cheering for our team...

The best part came when lilian took us out for dinner... it was some time we had that we'd hope it would happen often...

Happening are they...? Yet there are still alot of uncertainties in my head to which might determine the future but which is the path for me.. While these are things to ponder and consider throughly results are round the corner and in a reality world they matters the most. Then, i've also learned about life and people to know enough of the many things and ways that the wise has talked about and experience them myself to know that uni is actually the preview of the world outside except that every action comes a consequence and only hope they are lessons engraved deep within shall it not be repeated besides stuffing my brains with physics formulas, chemistry reactions, ethnic and tamadun views and calculus theorem which makes no sense. All to my dismay, have already entered the recycle bin in my dum dum head!

2010-07-03T23:53:00.000+08:00

And so orientation and university begins tomorrow... dreads, worries, expectations, hopes and dreams might change...

what to anticipate and what would future turn out to be?

Feelings

2010-06-30T16:07:00.000+08:00

It feels nice isn't it when you bought something for someone and they liked it... then they come say a word of thank you to you :)

Sigh... damn ptptn website is unavailable to me since yesterday afternoon. And today is the last day for application submission =/ The in-the-net is hopeless and i am donkey for doing things last minute

Then you have some backache and tummy ache but you still need to sit upright all day... urgghhhh

Lost and helpless

2010-06-21T10:40:00.002+08:00

18 June, keluarlah keputusan yang dinanti-nantikan dengan penuh harapan~

Namun, berasa agak kecewa because i got none of my 8 choices. Only I really thank God for being blessed enuf to be thrown into UPM rather that some other university 'cause UPM was indeed one of my option tho i much favor UKM. Only my course kinda dread me... because its majoring Physics and i am no physics brain :(

I feel so lost not knowing what is ahead and what holds the future.. It feels like my entire view is being clouded.. i am immersed in fear and so full of questions. Lost and helpless 'cause i cannot change things

An appeal to change course seem like a way of light but will i succeed?
What do i write to convince the deans?
What future did God pave for me that i didn't see...?
What if the 'that' i want is not the best for me as God sees it...?
What is things doesn't work or my appeal is being rejected... am i able to cope physics and more physics?
Apa yang akan terjadi??

Feel myself getting quieter since then, staring more into space.. thinking and thinking yet not know what is in my empty head. So much to do...and yet time seems to be running out. But i want to thank you deary for accompanying me at the crucial moment and thereafter...

Father, i feel so distant from you that when i talk to you it feels as if you're not listening to me... would you teach me what to do next...? Which stone is the one that will lead me on..? Guide me and hold me hand. Lead me on..

p.s// Offer accepted nevertheless...

MALAYSIA WON!!!

2010-06-15T10:47:00.004+08:00

Note from Author: Sorry, this is a ancient ago draft (written on the night Malaysia won Germany) which i just realise i never posted but still stubbornly want to add them to the collection of my bloggies. Don't bother to read okeh... Paiseh lah

We won We won....!!! Whoever says Malaysia will be in defeat?! We did it, we WON....!!!

I'm so happy i'm jumping around...jumping up and down, sweating like mad. It was really exciting.. so kan cheong my heart can stop. Yesh, i was as happy as them jumping and cheering and clapping and joining the standing ovation, giving my aunt n grandmother 'Hi fives' when we won the first doubles... Practically was as crazy as the crowd. I think i should be at the stadium. Haha.. feels damn sampat think if i watch at mamak and sendiri bising there Lol.. so better at home how sampat also no one cares. Expect maybe the whole road knows house No.17 which is my house watches Thomas Cup 2010 Quarter Finals and supporting M A L A Y S I A

But we finally won..! Good job Hafiz Hashim :D He really did redeem himself as he said in the press. Even Choong hann who lost was happy and smiling.. And although i was drained and tired and almost lost my voice after 5 hours of cheering but in the end it was all worth! And the best bit is i get to share every victorious moment with my other half even though it was only thru' communication lines :D

Lee Chong Wei vs Peter Gade Christensen 21-17, 21-17.

Koo Kien Keat/Tan Boon Heong vs Carsten Mogensen/Mathias Boe 21-17, 21-19.

Tan Boon Heong celebrates after winning Malaysia's second point.

Koo Kien Keat and Tan Boon Heong in action.

Wong Choong Hann lost to Jan O Jorgensen 20-22, 21-16, 18-21

Most unfortunate, Choong hann defeat was close. Although he himself maybe disappointed because he failed to end the game however i thought he played extremely well against Denmark than Japan. You can't deny that Jorgensen did well too as he discovered Choong hann's weakness in net play and make use of the fact the Choong hann is left handed.

Choong hann, show China what you've got man... Keep it up!

Mohd Zakry Abdul Latif/Hoon Thien How lost to Lars Paaske/Jonas Rasmussen 26-24, 12-21, 19-21

A newly paired couple after yesterday's incident.. their first match was an exciting one but the spirit went down on the second half and lost on the third.. Mostly is due to the fact of misunderstanding though it was a close match. All down to Hafiz Hashim nao.....

Muhd Hafiz Hashim vs Joachim Persson 21-12, 21-10

The Hero of the night... after a long 5-hour match. He manage to bring victory to our country and all hope rises. Not much excitement because he seem keen on finishing the game or else we go down the drain >.< But the happiness and joy of winning was present... All cheers for Hafiz

“I am proud of the players. Today, they showed the meaning of true grit and determination. They lifted their performances when it mattered most,” said Rashid

So be proud of your country okeh... i am now, but china's match would be a tough one

I know bloggie is hibernating... again but i'm happy and enjoyed myself alot these days eventhough things still happen.

Then, mei left for the States and i hope she's doing well adapting there and would very much enjoy herself to the fullest with 100% parental control free XD

Now, My monster ran away... but thank God we found him the next morning.. only he's paws are all severely torn due to excessive running. I guess he might be tracing his way home all night and injured his paws.. He's now unable to walk and run and is traumatized.. :(

>> Teacher's Day 2010
>> Mei's surprise
>> Chiyeen's Big Birthday
>> Expensive mamak nite
>> Dinner with his family
>> A great holiday and shopping spree
>> next: A Wedding :)

Happy with many event but too ~~busy~~ lazy to be updating my blog frequent.... we'll see how.

p/s: More happy days to come but keeping fingers crossed for UPU results

No more, no less

2010-05-24T09:43:00.004+08:00

My life pretty much sums up like this... The happy things that happens and followed by a sequence of crazy unfortunate events more or less balance up my.... emotions?

Like this~

My car is finally going cold and stop making funny noises after some major repairs and what-not (i'm happy) but the damn mechanic toyed with my already junk radio so its now bellowing at the top of its lungs (if it has any) and i can't in anyway tune it down and owe it to them, my tank shows E after only 4days which suppose to last me a week!

I'm broke.. H-E-L-P

Okeh... shall talk no more nonsense. What happened on wednesday?

Ungga crashes Tony Roma's, Austin Chase and Sushi king...

Really enjoyed the time we spent talking and laughing at stupid things... Having friends like you 3 really makes life worthwhile :) Another before the departure of mei..?

I miss mel... :(

And during the weekend...?

Friday, lunch was delicious and i'm glad you like dinner :)

Saturday,

♪ Lilian's 20th surprise birthday party...! It was great to have meet up with everyone again.. Makes me miss the playful times we always had in form6... :)

♪ "Want to watch fireworks with me?" waaaaaaant...!!! It was beautiful despite the tiredness. This very day brings back much memories of the past, sweet poignant ones ♥

Sunday, was church.

"I would like to run back into your arms.. i know very well tho i'm drifting far away yet you are the one still holding on to me, protecting me, waiting for me and interceding for me. I want to begin my day with you, walk through it with you and end it with you. I want to build my faith on rocks and grow deeper in relationship with you. To sit quietly and listen, letting you embrace me and show me things... i want more of you. We need you...."

Its a dilemma. My heart says "i don't want to work!" But i'm going to work anyway... One, I errr need tha' money.. Two, no work=rot at home. So better work... Getting really bored of working and i hope i'm not the only pathetic one who's gonna work until june ends. Saddening..

And guess, ever since the enlightenment i never complain about traffic jams anymore :S

Worky work work... Goo-by

Notes to self,

"Work with enthusiasm, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people "

Multi-post

2010-05-17T13:57:00.006+08:00

First,

the post-thought of the Malaysia vs. China game. Yeah.. everyone knows that we were defeated flat. People who read my previous post might now scoff at me and all but i still stand with what i have wrote. No regrets, nor am i embarrassed and ashamed that we lost because all have given in their best. China was just too good-agility, speed, game reading, skills, stamina and they are able to handle pressure well! But overall, it was a game to watch :D

after 20 years Lets hope Malaysia wins THOMAS 2012

Second,

HAPPY 20th BIRTHDAY CHI YEEN....!

This girl, sama-sama same class and together become probate but i think i only know her when i am in HeadGirl status >.< Then in upper6 we sit together and became noisy as we get to know each other more.... This is what i know her as:

Talk study i will kalah, MUET is my only hope
Talk lameness hers make you feel like wanna whack her
Talk debate i confirm win one.. bcause she no skill. yet
Talk crap she numba one... i tak layan her
Talk relationship, we are the same :D
Talk secrets she keeps them well
Talk physics in front, we pillow talk behind :P
Talk pa graph, we always fight for color and who finishes first
Talk birthday, people make wish she make resolution =.="

Although sometimes you're very notty and easily merajuk sometimes but i am glad to have label you as one of my good friend to share our ups and downs in Form6. Really enjoyed the times we spend to sampat, talk and share. Wish you joy and happiness always... Toast to friendship :)

p.s/ paiseh, i stole ur picture... cause i notty blog during lunch time

I give you MALAYSIA's very own:

Lee Chong Wei, Koo Kien Keat, Tan Boon Heong, Wong Choong Hann, Ong Soon Hock, Hoon Thien How, Mohd Zakry Abdul Latif and Mohd Hafiz Hashim

THANK YOU LORD...! Thank you so much.....

2010-05-12T10:40:00.009+08:00

THOMAS CUP 2010

Ah, yesterday's match was indeed exciting. The first 2 sets and the last of course. Third and Fourth set was dead boring mainly because we were going down and it seem that Malaysian players underestimated Japan..

Chong wei vs Kenichi Tago

Like it cause Chong wei fought well and it was an exciting match. Even the Japan coach admitted it :D And so is our first doubles play, Koo Kien Keat-Tan Boon Heong. They were well-prepared and did a great job. All hopes for Malaysia rised

Sadly, not likely to say the same for the next singles by Wong Choong Hann, who tried his best despite having a 2-yrs lapse but lose because he was hesitant and uncomfortable.Next doubles played by Mohd Fairuzizuan Mohd Tazari-Mohd Zakry Abdul Latif cause an uproar to Malaysia as their defeat was humiliating and they let emotions over take their cool causing vulgarity to be displayed. In the final singles, Mohd Hafiz Hashim failed to clinch the winning point as he made mistakes after mistake due to pressure... Ah, what a waste!

But i won't be like any other who would at this time criticize malaysia for their over-confident attitude but to still hope for the best in Malaysia-Denmark match this evening. Its the final chance for Malaysian players to redeem ourselves >.<

I particularly liked what Chong Wei said at the press conference tho:

Team captain Lee Chong Wei hoped that Malaysians would turn up to support them.

”This is the time that we need the fans to stand beside us in good and bad times,” said Chong Wei.

”I am disappointed with what some of the fans did to Zakry and Fairuzizuan. Yes, maybe, it was not their good day but booing and criticising us openly is not the way to do it,” said Chong Wei.

”As a team captain, I feel for my team-mates. No one in my team is playing to lose. They are here to give their best. It is part of the game to win or lose but I hope the fans will be more supportive,” he said.

On their chances against Denmark, Chong Wei said: “This is a make or break time for us. We will do our best to get the better of them. Our challenge is not over and we will give our best.”

Adapted from 'The Star'

Can't wait to watch the evening match..! Crossing my fingers and hoping for best for our national players.... for now work first >_< Ah, sien and i already missed the afternoon match!!!

MALAYSIA BOLEH..!! Ah, pertama kali berpatriotik but its time i learn how to support and love my country :)

Thank you Lord

2010-04-28T11:28:00.002+08:00

Despite going out early yesterday, traffic congestion is what i get... All the way from my house to deliver some stuff to a friend's and to office. I spent 1 1/2 hours on the road driving bumper-to-bumper. It was frustrating.. and especially with a manual!

I thought going back would be better. Alas! Much to my disappointment it rained heavily :( According to malaysian road theory satu kali hujan atau accident atau car rosak atau people gaduh opposite the road, suasana menjadi riuh-rendah and we cause traffic havoc see... So yeah, i took almost 45 mins to get back home.

I feel annoyed with the bad traffic. The annoyance is seeping into my bones and its coming out of my mouth until God somehow just made me realise it was pouring out there...(it all the while was, i was simply ignorant) And where am i? Sheltered and protected in my very own car. Shouldn't i be more than grateful that i am not walking out there, being sardined in public transport or riding a motorcycle... (where you'll get wet either by the rain or stupid cars cut you with a tsunami by its side)

Thank you lord for reminding me how very fortunate i am to be blessed with so much luxury.
A house over my head, a springed mattress, education opportunities, a room of my own, luxury items and gadgets , books of interest, a part-time job with good pay, a car, money to spend, yummy food to enjoy, i-am-healthy, to love someone, to be loved by, having a family, to worship freely.......................

So much so much more

I will say
Thank you, thank you Lord
All my life if from your love
Thank you, thank you Lord
Now my hearts forever yours
-Thank you Lord by Brad&Rebekah-

The thing!

2010-04-23T14:23:00.003+08:00

So i got abit angry, annoyed and feddup with the artic weather in my office. I hate my frozen hands... I seriously should consider investing on mittens because today i came out with a foolish idea.

Believe me... it was a as crazy as this

See the black thing on the keyboard and holding the 'tikus' ?
A pair of black sock transformed into fingerless mittens. I can still type and handle the mouse only with slight difficulty of flexibility >__<

This is my cubicle. I'm the only one with a scanner but the scanner suck. Don't bother the messiness... This is me.

So now many must be wondering why my office nothing to let me do until i can take pictures la... blog la... lagi boleh

"Haroo..." from office with my sock-mitten hand

Camwhore.....!!!

Because i do work very fast one... heh. Nolah.. i took like 2 hrs to finish one post lo. Its just to past time and some motivation la to forget my freeezy-ness besides listening to songs. I got do work one lo okay.. din 'putih putih' get my gaji one.

But i think this is the akibat lo if a company allows internet but with filter la of course... Facebook and hotmail got filtered only i don't quite understand why blogger isn't. So all the part-timers are blog hopping.

Ah, after 15 minutes, the sock mitten failed me. My hands are still cold as ever and i give up. It is now warming my feet instead which sadly doesn't have much effect either. And my hands are still ever freezing until now its starting to ache. Suck...

Oh oh oh.... LeeHom rawks man. So talented in music... and i have got music talent as big as an ant. I'm watching, no listening to his taiwan concert nao... Go figure

i wanna go to his concert laaaaaa

It has been 'ice aged'

2010-04-22T14:32:00.003+08:00

This somewhat depict what my office is like: Artic cold and boring >_<
For almost 2 months now, everyday i go through boring, routined piles of documents... It only make matters worse when the weather is -9 degrees inside.

Routinely, i start work at 9 - starting to freeze while completing left behinds or start afresh - toilet occationally but toilet is in autumn - no point going to toilet to defrost - lunch break with no pay - mostly i eat in - cafeteria is almost winter depending on which table u choose - already frozen - work sumore - finally its sahara desert outside =.=

Stupid air-cond. Everyday i get my hands frozen and myself shaking for 8 hrs until right i think my nerve abit impair ady la. Type also cannot type properly. Frozen until numb already.. sometimes fingers also jam.

Then yesterday i felt dizzy while driving home but i didn't feel its because i need food. I was not hungry. While helping at dinner suddenly my hands starts to shake. Lagilah obvious when i hold the knife to peel some onions. Whatta.. like some old feller with Parkinson or some drug addict lo :( First time body no glucose my hands shake so badly. The norm is maybe skipped breakfast also shake abit only

Adakah to tahan cold menggunakan all my glucose source because i did take lunch lo... This is bad

Dig me a hole

2010-04-21T11:01:00.002+08:00

Yesterday dunno what day lah... Berasa amat malang need to go 'pai san' already. Embarrassed by the same situation twice

Don't ask. I need a 6-feet deep hole to bury myself

And today... is careless day. Keep dropping things... Maybe i have nerve impair i.e 'sot kan'

Just kill me somebody... please~

My country, Malaysia

2010-04-19T10:32:00.006+08:00

I know i know... it sounds abit patriotic there but i'm not going to curse this country i live in because god forbid and pastor says "Malaysia is indeed so blessed in so many ways that we are all taking them for granted and heaven's favor on malaysia is closing. So start praying for your own country..."

And i really do agree Malaysia is really blessed in a sense that

One - Mother nature loves us that she never let earthquake, tsunami, extreme floods, drought... other natural disasters make history in our land. Except for the extreme can-melt-and-die hotness and landslides we suffer due to the selfishness of mankind. So we padan muka one

Two - There is no war and destruction. Only minor political issues which seem to take a hundred years to solve them. No bombing, no shooting, no darurat so bolehlah keluar dengan suka hatinya. There are crimes tho :S

Three - We have the freedom to persue any religion we want despite it is a muslim country and we are immigrants (if u trace back history lah)

In short, i love my country but its the people i 'beh song' with...

Case one
Cousin and i went to KWSP building to change my mailing address. We lined up at the counter where you take numbers. Then there this 2 guys suddenly appear by our sides but like one step ahead of us and we overheard the conversation (in canto lah)

Guy 1: (lala-fied hair dresser) so how to apply one ah...
Guy 2: (abit more gentleman dressed) very easy one la.. take number first la
Guy 1: ohh... (moves straight into the line directly cutting us)
Guy 2: eh, behind la.. i think u cut line leh...
Guy 1: (gayish way of talking) weh, i reach here first one loh *humph*
Guy 2: (jus walks away)

Wah, damn @#%! loh. He blind or what... so obvious we were standing there loh. Sumore we're both girls lo. Be gentleman abit can? comfirm tat feller gay la. Then joanna loudly say "some people ar cannot line up one,so ungentleman". Apparently, he english noob

Conclusion: Malaysians duno how to respect people and duno basic manners or ethics or be curteous. Sendiri wrong also damn muka tebal and loudly say he was there first. Mother i stood there like 2 mins ago. Curse him la

Case 2
While on the way walking to times square for subway with cousin... there is this 'kuai lou' family with 2 sons walking in front of us. Upon reaching the long abandoned jail, the man suddenly walk toward the walls of the jail and stood facing the wall. Yeap, he was actually peeing in public with seratus people passing by and seribu cars whooshing past. The best thing is right, like 2 metres back there's this convenient toilet which he could easily have paid 50 cents to pee... Cousin and i was like 'whata heck...?!'

Conclusion: So this is the impression tourists have toward malaysia.

"Its a hot country with traffic jams and human jams everywhere, they have nice beaches and extreme good deals for forge items with the most foul smelling fruit but also the tastiest food. The best part is you can pee and throw rubbish anywhere and anytime whenever you like"

We aren't very good citizens are we? No mannerism, no moral, no ethics, no hygiene, no consideration...... (add la all u want)

Technology and the economy is advancing unfortunately malaysians are still very much left behind, tied down with the kuno-ness and unwillingness to change or accept new things. Sad lah sad lah :(

The beginning of the new end...?

2010-04-15T21:58:00.002+08:00

And i say, "Let there be life"

Dengan itu, hidup lah blogku yang telah lama mati ini. Ah, i wanted to be like melissa and meng-abandonkan blogku yang tiada harapan ini but tak sampai hati because

>> i like the URL
>> pasts are meaningful to me
>> malas to tell everyone to relink me (like ever they going to trust joanna to update her blog)

I hope this enthusiasm will last though... dengan semangat membara-baranya mencari templete and configure everything. Then i HTML noob rite i duno how to change it to serve my taste. Aih... which results to my 3 bestie's are on my header menu. (berasa proud leh you three....) But its a good thing because they are the ones i 'click' the most anyways. This my blog right so of course mus serve me la. If you dun like then go awayyy lah~

So yeap, a whole new beginning and a whole new chapter of life unfolding soon...

Cute grandmother

2009-09-24T21:34:00.004+08:00

My Grandmother...

A lady who is hard on the outside but soft at heart
Who has been thru' a lot in life
Who has loved me and brought me up
Who has taught me much about life
One who sacrificed much for us
One who cooks, cleans and takes care of everything
And yet not a word of complain is uttered.

I never realise time passes...
But she is getting older as the day by day
I suddenly notice,
All those crease on her skin
All those joint pain she talks about
That makes me reflect
How much have i done for her..?
To appreciate her love and sacrifices
To make her happy and comfortable
To fulfill her wishes and dreams
Only to realise that i couldn't do much

Will spending time with her be able to replace that of what she really want in life that i could not give... yet?

I would wish i could give her everything that she wants..anything at all that would make her happy i am willing to walk to hundred thousand mile to fulfill them.

The grandmother,the little girl, the daughter and the granddaughter.

Feel the urge to photoshop my face there..see the empty space there just nice for my head.But ow well. Tak ber-skill la people..

After lunch, decides to take a ride around the newly launched 'lake valley' nearby my house. But it looks like it landed all of us at the playground...

Never too old to be in 'Neverland' =)

She is really a sporting woman...someone whom you can joke with (but dun la the tak senonoh one) and is really sociable.
Well.. at least she knows half the neighbourhood and i don't even know my neighbour. Its a sad case

I think this is the 'modern' see-saw...interesting..cause at first the little girl and i stand on it.. ahh..a hunch of silly-ness

The memorable thing about today is that... this is the first time i am playing see-saw with my grandmother. After 19 years. And the fact that she enjoyed it puts a smile on my face.

But erh..i look a bit like 'soh poh'..wind decides to blow the wrong direction =.=

Bak kut teh with self-added fish balls and my favourite straw mushroom for dinner...Yummy

HAPPY 69th BIRTHDAY GRANDMA...!

I'd pray for health and longevity, peace and joy to be with her always..

Haven't been a good grandchild lately..too absorbed in living my own life. But..
I hope i manage to make this day a memorable one...
That it did make her happy =)

I love you grandmother <3

2009-07-10T18:02:00.002+08:00

I didn't mean to make you feel this way
I only wanted to hear from you
It wasn't meant to make you sad
Those eyes breaks my heart
But i could only look from afar

I don't know why
But i really don't want small matter
making us fall apart
I treasure you too much
You're all i ever needed

I realise i wasn't being fair to you
Somehow deep down i know
I should be happy 'cause you made that statement
I guess it wouldn't have mattered much
If i wasn't this afraid and self-centered

No longer am i angry nor disappointed..
I forgive you
The hurt you felt is enough to bear
I would keep in my heart
The promises you've made

Let the said and done be history
Let us begin afresh
Let this strengthen our bond
For nothing else matters more than you
And i still trust in you.. wholeheartedly

=)

p.s i am sorry too..

Really am sorry

2009-06-14T20:58:00.003+08:00

Romeo ran away.. again
This time with full strategy that ensures him complete invisibility
Unsure whether he's on the sewer path or still somewhere around my house

I guess i'm really not a good master..
Or the tiny turtle wouldn't run away from home
But who wouldn't
Having a greenish home so alone

Sorry ungga
:(

*still hopes he'd appear some day..*

A Hilarious Twist

2009-06-05T22:09:00.006+08:00

Let us now look at
'What the Devil was doing for the first seven days?!'

Readings from Genesis 1:1

In the beginning, God created heaven and earth. And earth was without form and void.
And God made a circular light in the heavens and he called it the Sun. And God saw that the light was good.
And the Devil made a smaller light, rectangular in shape, and he called it TV. And the Devil saw that the light was bad.
And God made springs which comes out of the ground, oozing fountains of pure, fresh water. And God saw that the water was good.
And the Devil invented fizzy drinks. And saw that the fizzy drinks were bad.

And God said, Let the earth bring forth vegetables and the herb of the field that the children may grow up healthy. And so it was.
And the Devil said, Let there be deep-fried potatoes.
And God said, Let the waters bring forth 10,000 varieties of fish that they may provide sustenance for the children.
And the Devil arranges that the fish be smothered in batter, deep fried and served with deep-fried potatoes.

And God created the cattle of the fields and said, Behold, i have given you every living creature that moveth; to you it shall be for meat.
And the Devil showed how the meat could be minced and turned into burgers and suggesteth that it be always served with deep-fried potatoes.

And on the seventh day, God rested and asked that his children rest too, and use the day to contemplate the wonders of creation.
And the Devil brunch cartoon TV channels and Sunday newspapers filled with news about celebrities , that the minds of the children be filled with rubbish and their bodies be filled with yet more deep-fried potatoes.

And God said the the boy, Take the girl and go forth and multiply. And of your seed I shall make a great nation as numberless as the stars of the heavens.
And the Devil invented the computers and recruited 10,000 demons to fill it with online battles and images of top-heavy woman. And the boy did part with the girl and did instead cleave to the computer.
And God pointed out the the girl that he had made her with many attractive blandishments which she could use whenever the boy was away from the computer.
And the Devil invented the 'Portable PlayStation' so that the boy will be able will take computer games with him wherever he goes.

Now the serpent was more subtle than any of the animals that God had created. And the Devil did enter into the serpent and cause him to say to the girl and boy. The tree in the middle of the garden the Lord hath told you not to touch. But i say unto you, if you eat of the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, your eyes shall be opened and you shall be as gods.
And the boy and the girl looked at the serpent and said unto him: No thanks. We liketh not fruit. But hast thou an deep-fried potatoes?

And here endeth today's scripture reading. Amen.

I know its bit of a lengthy dull full of words post but please tell me you did laugh at that piece of interesting twist.. because it was so funny i had to share it with all of you and i wasted my time typing this piece of 'crap' instead of having a book sticking under my nose =.="

And i knoweth of somebody who is going to knock me on the head :P

Dear mei

2009-03-20T10:24:00.005+08:00

Thank you for being my friend all this while
It really isn't easy meeting someone you click so well with
Like you....
Thank you for your cares and concerns
Always lending a listening ear
Helping me and advising me
Thank you for romeo (most important)
the turtle that would accompany me thru this times
and i'll try my best to take good care of it

Also, always remember that we're always here for you
in whatever that happends
of course sometimes it's not easy to share
Because sometimes we may not understand
But don't bottle up everything okay
Maybe tell us when you're ready
Because we don't only share happy moments
But we also want to be a part in the times when the world
seem to be crumbling.

Then of course Life is not a bed of roses.
Hardships are bound to come
Exams still suck and yes it's evil.. very evil
But just give it the best shot
Somehow or rather...by a slip of chance
You'll still get thru everything alive!
Because its not well how you start the race
But how well you end it
(i know you sudah tau.. tapi mau cakap jugak)

HAPPY 19th BIRTHDAY MEI!!!

Have a blasted birthday okay... just throw away everything and enjoy to the fullest!
But after that must pick it up arh.. hahaha...

From: joanna and on behalf of ungga :)

PS. UNGGA LOVES MEI!

A day

2009-03-20T10:04:00.003+08:00

19 March 2009

Funny to only realise on the same day so many things could be happening right there at the same moment. Someone leaving... another leaving the world while others could be celebrating an event. Not especially when its a loved one. Its not easy... truly.

You're going off.
It couldn't have been more heart-breaking
but as i promised you
i would be strong
knowing you'd always be there for me
supporting me no matter what
to achieve what i needed to
and make you proud most of all
missed you so...

You left the world.
I grew up with you
watching your every stage of life
from the moment you joined our family
bringing laughters and happiness
You are one strong enduring character
you survived being a stray
you survived being poisoned
you survived kidney problems
but you did not make it for cancer
perhaps it was too strong.. i know you'd tried your best
It was heart-wrenching to watch you go
but i didn't want you to suffer
streams of tears flow by the thought of that
how much more will i miss you
i could only watch you from pictures
I love you.. a lot

Till now.. Life is indeed to short to live the same day twice

Romeo~

2009-03-14T23:03:00.003+08:00

Hee... thanks ungga for him! :D

Note to you~

2009-02-18T21:06:00.003+08:00

If i were to asked the reasons why
you mean so much to me,
I wouldn't know just where to start
there are such a lot you see

Maybe it's your patience,
the way you always try.
to understand my problems
and to help me reason why

Or could it be that so often
you can see the funny side of things,
which helps me cope more easily
with the setbacks that life brings

Your brilliant sense of humour
and your wonderful sense of fun,
can instantly chase the gloom away
and welcome back the sun

It really means a lot to me
that I can count on you,
to help me see more clearly
by giving your caring point of view

To be there standing by me
when others let me down,
always trying to cheer me up
when you see me with a frown

The happy times I spent with you
mean so much to me,
we get along so well
and I just love your company

I'll be there when you need me
and i will always try,
to help in any way I can
without asking why

Today and every single day
I hope in your heart you know,
I will never let you down
because i care about you so

These are especially for you...
Once again.. Blessed Birthday Bernard...!

:)

That makes me smile

2008-11-20T21:05:00.006+08:00

I went thru' a horrendous week with a daily dose of chemistry experiments for 5 consecutive days. Got so tired of writing and copying the reports each time i settle on my study. Titration has become a nightmare! I'd never imagine what could be worse until chromatography existed.. It was crazy.. all the spotting and drying. Crazy colours that don't seem to separate properly. Biology and chemistry. Same experiment. What! While all the suffering was going on, somewhere over in Dammam and Japan, 2 souls are enjoying themselves. Yes. My mom and aunt. One on business trip, another for annual company trip. Though non of them remembered kidnapped me in a luggage, but the things they brought back was just :D

The woman who went to Dammam... Saudi Arabia that is. Some football event thingy

My house is now full of.....

Pistachio nuts... and cashew nuts... and almond nuts... and macadamia nuts... and more nuts

And more nutty cookie... more like their delicacies la

But it's like super sweet, like sugar's free but not sugar free. And i don't know how 2 enjoy sweet things

Eh eh... their nuts are cheese flavored weih... pistachio in cheese...

Must always have....

FERRERO ROCHER!!! Hehe.. be jealous. This whole box is mine...! Who cares about malamine contamination.. haha.. nolah. Until now it's still left unattended in the fridge. Tak sampai hati wanna open it Lol...

But the truth is...

There's many many other chocolate waiting...

Toggi mini is to die for... Bounty is 100% my cousin's is to die for (i dislike coconut)
Rocher and cadbury is to share... But see the golden packet thing? Chocolate with dates paste... Yucks for me but yay for my grandmother

Then mommy arrives from japan with more

Yes... chocolates. There's suppose to be some other japanese delicacies too. But already dunno where in one day. Omochi's... some cheddar crackers (cheese again.. will i ever be sick of cheese?)

There's this sweet sour chocolate. Taste like eating chocolate with those sour bubblegum... Sour destroys the chocolate larh. Or maybe i don't like sour stuff..

Survinors?

Onigiri doggie! ... well, the body looks like onigiri la

With it's partner of sheep's body with rabbit head -.-" And there's summo things la.. but they are camera shy.. haha

Aroma therapy..? I choose this as i don't really know how to appreaciate other stuff. Bamboo and white tea. Quite nice also the smell... relaxing. Good for study :)

Contented. Yes... who wouldn't. A chocolate a day keeps the doctor away..? Best parts. A piece of chocolate after dinner :) Sweet tooth? Kinda but hates sweet stuff. Peculiar....

All these 'chocolates' are making me 'nuts'~

Grasshop hop hop...er

2008-11-03T22:56:00.005+08:00

"Class... tomorrow we do the preservation experiment okay.. "

"Eh, you all catch grasshopper ady arh?"
"Haven lah.. later wanna go catch lor.. come along la"
"When where... "
"After school lahh... hang tuah there"

But the walk to hang tuah was really unpleasant. With the new leather shoes, the pain was unbearable! Near the stadium, saw some ferns and pluck them.. they pluck while i endure pain in silence. I just felt like walking 'kaki ayam' lah... Feel like mau pengsan already. What kind of shoes lah.. some more must wear everyday! The thought of there's still 4 days left for the week to pass dampens my spirit. Dreadfully walk slowly up the pedestrian bridge, past the flats to the fire bridgate station. Then, caleb caught the first and biggest grasshopper.

That's it then. I'm gonna forget about all the pain and hunt for my grasshopper. Then i can go home and sit and never move again. And so i found my hop hop after a while... and helped joyce found hers too :) At first i thought grasshopper hunting was a waste of time. But it turned out to be so much fun.. The excitement and the challange of catching them. After everyone caught something....

"Let's go catch flies...!"
"What..! My leg can break liao.."
"No need everyone go la... few of us can ady"
"Thank you thank you..."

Walk back to hang tuah LRT. Suddenly all the pain resurface again. Argh... i need to find something to concentrate on. Walking down the flats. The agony. Most unbearable. I just felt like rolling down la. Why bother to walk. Crap shoes. Raced for the train.. with shoes that slowed me a lot. Found a place to sit. Ahhh.... comfort. Then, all eyes stares at the little hopper. Err.... Dang! I threw off the shoes once i reach the car. Thankfully i have selipars under my seat... oh, if takde i'll just drive kaki ayam anyways >.<

A young one. Still green and waiting for it's wings to fully mature to fly and I damn it to death. Evil. Well, not me. Blame the Biology lah..

No air?? That's why i let it sleep outside at night in case i ter-breath all the oxygen. Haha...

Mogok dan tak mau makan.... Adakah i pluck the leaf tidak sesuai dengan seleranya?? Unlike 'Ah kor's fly some more can eat bread -.-"

The next day. Whole class kills grasshopper and fly with chloroform. Watching the grasshopper die like so kesian.. Feel so cruel. Seeing it spit out black liquid indicate it's dying. Doctor feeling. Wearing gloves and mouth covers and all.. Dissecting the insecta with each tug in the abdomen comes with a fierce flash of lightning and loud rumbles of the thunders. Very drama lohh.. (Nehh... those drama you ter-kill someone then sure will hujan lebat, ribut taufan, kilat memancar-mancar one lehh)

After drying in the oven, it's all crispy and crunchy... and fragile too

First i broke an antenna.. then i stick it with superglu. Then i broke the foot.. and stick with super glu again. Then i almost let the fly be 2 piece.. i superglu the whole body. Then i broke a leg.. i double superglu it back to its body. So my preservation is superglu preservation. What would teacher say?? Hope she doesn't realise :/

Life's brief candle:shall i preserve thy youthfulness forever

Dear daddy...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY YEE SENG!!!

I hope you'll like this little 'post'
which is especially for you
and wishing you luck and happiness
in everything you do

Simply knowing that you're my friend
always makes me smile
for it's special people like you
who make life so worthwhile

Because friendship is a precious gift
and i know my whole life through
i'll always be so grateful
that i have a friend like you :)

Looks familiar lehh... just thought i should write this here too. In case the note got itself lost... :p This would be one birthday celebration that you'll remember for as long as you live. For one, the cake smashing on your face. Wasted larh.. should have a picture of it. When can you ever play your captain like that.. Yours was one of the worst i've ever seen la..

Then there's the presents... The 3 of us laugh about it. (don't need to mention which 3) And we didn't do it on purpose lah. We din discuss anything.. It's just that maybe we're a special family and so the thinking also the same... hahaha. Hope you like them anyways.... :)

This guy is one guy that changes my view about ordinary immature guys. He was one who was wise with wisdom, respectable and sometimes talking to him really gets me thinking. Someone who's given me useful advises and guidance. Building friendship with him was nothing to loss but every thing to gain. I've learn a lot from him.. he's always pointing out things that has never occurred to me. Except, well... he's very extremely superbly lame.. It's easy to laugh with him around but also sometimes lame until you cannot tahan..

Okay.. enough.. Don't want to compliment you further ady. Save some for your other birthdays.. :p

Have a blessed 17th birthday!!!

From... your daughter :)

On the 24 of september happened to be the birthday of this women i treasure so much.. Her existence was the best gift that has been given to me. All the things that she's done is nothing compared to having to own every luxury in the world.. Being there when i needed someone.. Although there's always the nagging element but i know that's her way of expressing her concern. Sacrificing so much just to make us little ones happy and seeing us happy lifts up her heart..

My grandmother.... and my 'jie jie'...

How the memory of her accompanying me to school each day when i just started 'standard 1' remain fresh 'till today. Each day she would bring me to school and waited until i finish my lessons.. How during recess time she would always be there. How she would ask me about lessons and get me whatever i wanted. At that time i didn't understand how was it like to be going to the same place and waiting for such long hours with nothing in particular to do. (Well, except window shopping 'cause BBGS near 'lot 10' there mahh... my school is now Pavilion!)

Then on the saturday before mom took us for lunch at the 'Grand Millennium'. Used to be known as 'The Regent'. To a chinese restaurant...

ZING...!

Basically the environment of the high-class restaurant

With unique lighting's

And pathway... leading toward the place we're seated

Just right beside their external kitchen which they make their noodle specialty

And don't say i didn't warn you loh.. i like posting food. Hehe.. Just don't drool on your keyboard la okay..

Fried taro-dumplings.. (Low class a bit... call fried prawn lorh)

Zing's 'wu kok'... Decorate till so nice also dunno how to eat

'Har gao'

'Char siu pau'... It was really nice though don't really look appetising to me

'Siu mai'.. My favourite! But i feel that the ones sold in the market was more of my liking.. This one.. okok only ler

Our decent meal... But i dunno what noodle this is. Maybe their specialty.. This is my bowl. The waitress lah.. go and divide for us and left me without a chance to picture it.

Must always have veggie!... 'Kai lan' fried with butter and garlic. Yum...!

Gingered beef... Super delicious! Soft, tender and juicy meat...

Actually wanted some 'tim pan' one... but they don't have -.-" But nevermind la.. the mini egg tart is also fine. Crunchy on the outside and eggy on the inside.. haha

Durian puff's..! I didn't try this la.. Since i don't really know how to appreciate durians. But everyone says it's worth eating. Must be good then... for durian lovers (i'm the only one in the family who don't go crazy about durian.. everytime they eat i'll be hiding in my room. Weird i know..)

Just find this.... very classic

Grandma.. mom, jie and I

Cousin and I... while waiting for food

Aunt and uncle...

The Lobby... nice settings..

And my grandmother fell in love at first sight... the orchids.

I didn't know what to get my grandmother at first... stupid ideas like begging the hotel management to give me a pot of that orchids flash past. We laugh about it... But in the end

I went to 'petaling street' and brought her this... after school :)

Glad that she really likes them this time.. cause every year we get her something sure ada comment one. At least din waste my effort la. So hard to jaga the flower okay..so scared i kill it or crush it.. and I actually ter-break a petal while driving home... (Shhh... you know i know can ady) :P

Breaking into pieces

2008-09-21T21:18:00.003+08:00

Gah... i just realise i have a few 'left behind' post which are yet to be published! It's so sad that its a monday again tomorrow... the a whole routine so familiar would repeat itself for a consecutive 5 days down the row.

Yawns and drag self out of bed.. dash or rather chase the train.. school.. class.. study.. sometimes lost in class.. stayback.. duty.. club meetings.. home.. nap.. homework.. revision (well, sometimes) and slump dead on my bed.

Ohh... i don't even remember sleeping. Before i could even let a dream come by, the buzzing alarm would just ring... arghh! The worst thing.... i remember my what i studied and forgot other things.. wahh! What's the capacity of a human brain?... no, a normal human brain.

Homework pilling up...
Revisions yet to be done...
Finals coming in another 2 weeks time...
I haven't study a bit...
Which sums up to a word...
*DIE*

Oh Lord... sustain me.. I need you!

The solution!

2008-09-07T16:40:00.002+08:00

The solution?? It's the solution for any stalking problem or emergency or danger or emergency. Hehe.... guess what mom got me today?! Okay.. not really go buy it lah. Got them for free just cause she's working for OSRAM. My house lighting all free...no need to spend a cent! nyahh... nolah..

Coolness... panic alarm mann!!!

Got kinda excited about the alarm cause it says "115 decibel alarm" which i don't know what it means also lah. Then i hunt for a screwdriver and start removing the tag behind. Where i found the cutest thing beneath the cover of the 'cool' thing.

The battery is soo soooo... CUTE!!!

The size is something A23 if i'm not mistaken...

After i remove the tag then here comes the notty part larh.
*behind packing*
Pull out keyring to activate alarm

So i pull it out.... and almost died! The sound is and was terrible... High pitch.. high frequency.. Never thought there's something better than pepper spray. So....

WATCH-OUT ya stalkers out there! I'll huff and puff and blow you away with my new weapon! Okay lame.. nevermind ;)

Lembu is now 17!!!

The Stalker

2008-09-04T19:11:00.003+08:00

On this very day (03 September '08), I finally understood the feeling of being stalk. Creepy.. freaky.. scary.. feary.. eerie.. heart attack.. *dies*

It all started when i was on my way home after finishing the pointless 'reading programme'. I decided to take the ampang train teman-ing joyce but drop at chan sau lin station. Little did i know, as i stepped out of the train a stranger approached me. Talking in an alien language my brain cannot decipher. I gave him a puzzled look and thought he was asking about the train 'cause it can be really confusing if one is a first-timer. I just said "next train sri petaling." Then he nodded and asked me what form am i in then started talking about all sorts ie politics, pembangunan, political parties, critic form 6.... and the list goes on. Saying that he's a muslim and puasa stuff... bla bla bla.. I was already giving him a cold shoulder but perhaps he's skin is a little bit more than thick to feel lah. I wasn't in a mood of conversation as i was really exausted and drained. He's babble went on when the train finally arrived.

I purposely walk over to the next entrance as my instinct tells me that something is very wrong already. As i boarded i immediately prayed over this matter.. my heart is feeling uneasy. Many got down the salak south station which leaves him spaces to walk over towards me. "crap!" I thought. He continues to talk, this time asking me questions. Which station do i drop.. And then posed a as-a-matter-o-fact statement. "Can i have your contact.. i want to contact you in the future." Not that i was shock and felt fear overtaking but i hide my feelings well and said a stern no. He somehow did not get it. Train arrives at BTR and i thought that was the end of this nightmare. But no!

He followed, no stalked me! This time insisting to know where i live. Only a fool would reveal the truth. Idiotic guy says "oh, i live in bandar tasik selatan" I sarcatiscally asked "then why you'd drop here?" Stalker replies "because i want to talk to you..." CRAZY INSANE STALKER!!! If i were daring enough i would seriously kick his *toot* He is still determine to ask for my contact when i said another no. Guess what guy said man... "Why?? Is it cause of studies... it's ok. I'll call you just once a month.. I really hope to see you after your studies.. bla bla bla" REALLY CRAZY ONE AHHHH!!! OH, TUHANKU.. APALAH YANG TERJADI PADA BUMI INI?! I turn to swap my card out of the barricade but dare not immediately walk to my car. 'cause from the platform my car is positively visible. I keep on my guards and pretending that i was waiting for my parents to fetch me.

Only when the next train arrives and leave the platform did i dare to make a dash for my car and drove off at the speed of lightning! I was in a state of fright that i make sure every car that drives behind me is not the same vehicle everytime i glance at the mirror. Yeah.. sounds ridiculous but my mind is hair wired... Idiotic thing. Instill fear in my heart. Make me for a split second afraid to take the train to school or even go to school. Stupid stalker knows my school.. the badge says it all. Idiot idiot idiot.... Thankfully i took off my name tag ady ahh.. LRT mmg dangerous... Wrong.. rephrase... THE WORLD IS NO LONGER A SAFE PLACE. Full of evil, insanity, cruelty...

*bangs table!* Tergamak engkau dalam bulan yang suci ini, pada bulan rahmadan membuat perkara sebegini! Lagi berani berkata diri sendiri sedang berpuasa! Sedangkan sifat ini langsung tidak memaparkan ajaran islam yang murni yang diagung-agungkan selama ini! Adakah ini sikap seorang muslim yang dikatakan beriman?! Bersolat 5 kali sehari! Mengaji al-quran! Kemanakah didikan agama yang diasuh sejak bangku sekolah?? Sudah dicuci hidroklorik asid?! Cis punya orang... memang jahaman! Aku tahu ini adalah teramat sangat offensive but maaflah saudara saudari sekalian yang tidak bersalah kerana 'sebab nila setitik rosak susu sebelanganya.'

Because he's just undergone an operation we've decided to present to him a feathery pillow. Since he's unable to sleep on the hard garden bench like he used to. And i didn't want him on the cold floor all night long. Plus the rainy season. I love my son :D At which his normal reaction would be fighting with the pillow to destruction and try swinging it with these strong teeth of his.

But it was really cute to see him sleep with the pillow as well... :)
I took this shot secretly..

And stupidly forgot to turn off the flash which woke him up... silly. He's kinda blurr at the moment

"what are you doing...??" ~I'm caught!

In case you're wondering what operation he'd just went thru.. my son is an official eunuch!

awww.....

1000 word essay

2008-08-19T22:04:00.003+08:00

Warning ahead: A 4 paged long essay written as a punishment due to my foolishness. I've decided to publish them since my blog is undergoing serious radioactivity decay. Fungus are eating up every bit of this site. My busy schedule gave me no mercy to blog in often.. have loads of tags piling up and this site is outdated. Sighh... Anyway hope you'd enjoy this. (I know it's long and draggy but bear with it..)

Trapped keys!

Little did I vividly recall that very day I was awoken by dreams which come and go swiftly. It made my tired brain flip and flops at every few seconds’ interval. How very confused am I but I could hardly give an account to them. There and there, came a source of light so bright it pierce through my eyelids and an enchanted melody it seems filled my deaf ears. It took me a split second before I became aware of my surroundings. “Great!” I thought to myself as I sat up rubbing the back of my neck as if it might relieve the stiffness. I accidentally doze off with my chemistry textbook as a replacement of my soft and comfy pillow. Then I left the energy supply running through the cables of my computer, specifically my speakers and room lights all night. The amount of energy I wasted was enough to cause Mother Nature some definite consequences and I am aware of that.

Subconsciously, I reach over to my study and grab my cell phone. With a gentle click by the side of my treasured gadget it obediently displays the time of the day. 5.32 am. Reluctantly I force myself to climb out of bed although the temptation to snooze for another 15 minutes almost over took my flesh. Knowing I was early, I fiddled with my textbooks. Instead of rushing and dashing around my room looking for things in my unorganized room, I did things at my own pace with all the time in the world I had. It had suddenly occurred to me that perhaps I should try going out a few minutes earlier and try to catch the train. After all an early bird catches the worm!

At the crack of dawn, I drove steadily down the familiar looking road. Abandoning my time with God was enough for me to feel guilty. While driving I felt the urge to spend some quality time with Him instead of staring blankly at the long unwinding road. So I said my little prayer, asking him for forgiveness and stated my eagerness of steering my direction back onto Him only. I knew that I should tune my heart and check my relationship with God once a while. Maybe I have lost some fire like I use to have when I first found my ‘first love’ but the thought of me turning against God draws fear into my heart. I cannot imagine life without this Godly-man who has done so much for me.

Turning into the parking area my heart rejoices as a strategic parking spot awaits me. That was the nearest parking space to the train station with a tree spreading its arms so wide I am positive it would be able to shelter my vehicle from the blazing sun. I successfully parked my car, make sure I turn off the lights and started to gather my stuff from the passenger seat. My watch reads 06.39am when I glanced at it. I reminded myself that the next train would reach the platform at 06.42am. I came out of the car and immediately became aware of my surroundings as my arms supported my file and water bottle. My other hand was for pressing the lock button and was about to close the door.

The moment just before I lead the door to shut, something at the back of my brain seem to be whispering, telling me I forgot something. But what exactly is it? I just cannot seem to recall anything. At the exact timing where I heard a loud ‘bang!’ only did it occur to me. MY CAR KEYS!!! I peered through the window and I just saw my keys hanging at the ignition. The keys separated just by that thick piece of metal away from its rightful owner. How utterly dismayed am I to have let myself fall into such a silly mistake. My mind went blank for a second or two before I could feel the urgency as my brain scan through every single piece of memory that might help me out of this mess. Because I know mum would not be please with this.

Before my brain could cough up a method that might work I stared intently at the keys as if by doing so they would just appear in my hands and tried to give the door a few yanks but in vain. This may look hilarious but I would give a hunch in every possibility that might get me close to unlock or even unwind my mistake. I pulled out a hair pin off my hair and tried letting it slip through the key holes. I know it is close to impossible that this would work but that’s what we did during our secondary school days when either of us forgot to bring our locker keys. Thinking very hard, I knew needed something thin that would slide between the window and the latex around it. Yes, that’s it! I could try using the metal ruler I possess.

A friend once told me that there is a high probability of opening a locked door by just sliding a card or ruler between the windows and where the card or ruler hits the exact spot the door would unlock. I casually dropped my file and bottle to the ground and started searching for the ruler. As I tried my luck, I mouth my word of prayer and hoped very hard that this would turn out well. I even witnessed the train left the platform without me. Unfortunately nothing good came out of it. I am left with no choice but to resort to calling back home. Picking up my things, I ran to the nearest public phone as my cell phone was also locked in the car and scan my wallet for every single coin I had. It was then 06.43 am when I finally got through the line.

Hurriedly I gave a quick summary on my carelessness and ask by any chance if they could get the spare keys from my mother and drive the car home or something. I very well understand the consequences of leaving the car unattended with the keys hanging at the ignition. If the car vanishes, that would be the end of me. I broke the trust and responsibility that was accounted to me when I was granted full permission to use the car. I hung up and notice my watch now reads 06.45 am. Grabbing my things I ran to the station. While I was running my wallet accidentally slipped from my hand. As it touches the ground my involuntary action of moving legs could not stop in time due to the law of inertia kicked the wallet and it slide across the path.

Racing for time I did not bother about the 10 cents than rolled off nor did I care about that piece of white paper lying a distance from my wallet. I naively thought it was just an ordinary piece of receipt as I have the habit of keeping them. I scurried past, bent down, grab my wallet and headed straight pass the barricade. I did not stop to breathe until I make sure I got myself onto the platform because I know I might catch the next train. When I got my feet on the platform I check if I dropped my Rm50 which I stuffed in this morning to make payment for school miscellaneous. That is when another bomb was dropped on me.

That piece of white paper was not just any ordinary receipt but my pictures which I spent a good whole 15 bucks on them for my school’s necessity. It felt so right to rush back up and retrieve my pictures but I know very well I would definitely miss the train then. Just as I was struggling with me thoughts, true enough the train arrived. I boarded with massive emotions running through faster that I could give it a second thought. I glanced at my watch again and was positive I was going be late for my prefect duties. Above all that, I was dead worried of what would become of the car and at the same time angry with myself. I indulge in self-blame.

As I starred out of the window, many things came into consideration. I thought of the mode of transport that would get me home later. How I would call my aunt about things during recess later. The lecture and some scolding I would get from my grandmother and mum. How things had drastically manage to overturn my jovial mood into a devastating one. The evil one did take this opportunity to bombard me with doubts that God is good because since I have decided to turn over nothing good happens. But I know all this was a lie. This is just a small test and if I fail to get past this I know very well I would have disappointed my God who is forever proud of me no matter how bad I fair. Yes, it might be my worst day ever but in my heart I have faith that He would still protect me no matter what.

I arrived at the prefect room just on time to sign in and left straight for my duty post. My senior was concern by the fact that I arrive late and perhaps my expression unreadable. He asked if I was feeling alright and what had happened. I hesitated but was not ready to share this with him yet so I just told him I do not want to talk about it. Just then a classmate of mine approached me to pass me a white paper and told me a guy found this at the station and believes it belongs to me. Are things beginning to change? The day pass with worry and fear accumulated in my heart. I skipped recess since I had chemistry before that and I did not want to miss class. It was well past my duty time and I know it is not advisable to skip my duty for personal matters. I performed my duties and thought of calling after recess period but I had to rush for math class.

The ringing sound of the bell indicated that school was over. I pack up and headed for my ‘detention class’ duties. With an empty stomach since the morning I felt the orchestra going on in my hungry stomach. The thought of going for an emergency meeting called by the prefects with my hungry state kind of dampers my spirit. I asked for permission to call from my senior and he allowed me to do so. With the few amount of coins left I had to make quick conversations and got to know that I was suppose to go up to my mother’s working place and obtain the keys from her instead. This means the car is at risk!

Before I could end my DC, the meeting adjourned. I went for lunch at the canteen and decided I should ask for signatures from the senior prefects to complete my orientation form. They asked a lot of questions regarding the constitution. At 4 pm I finally left school and took the train to Hang Tuah station. I was kind of lost because I was not very definite about the exact location of Amoda building. I did not want to take the monorail because I think I deserve to walk rather than to waste money. I brisk walk as fast as my legs could carry me with the weight of books I am bearing. I finally reached the opposite of Amoda building and decided to give mum a ring. Then I climbed the pedestrian bridge to get to the other side of the road.

Due to some miscommunication I guess I waited for quite some time at the lobby of the building for my mother to appear but to no avail. I have working people staring at me as if I was from another planet. Perhaps it was because I was in school uniform. Unable to bear another passing minute I used the last of my 10 cents to make another call where I was asked to go up to the 7^th floor. I got the key and was given a stern warning but she did not look furious. I scurried off, walked as fast as I could back to the lrt station, boarded the train and prayed really hard believing whole heartedly that my car would be just fine. That He would send angels guarding my car and would never allow something that I cannot possibly handle and put me to the test.

By the time the train left the salak south station, my heart was pounding so fast. I felt my body shivered as the train passes the parking lots while I tried to locate the car. The moment my eyes meet the sight of the car still parked safely there I felt a rush of relieve washed over me. Immediately I mouth a word of thank you to my Lord. Not loud but enough for Him to hear me. After I settled in the car I retrieve my phone from under the seat and called mum to ensure that the car is still in its best condition. She did give me punishments which I truly deserve them. Only I did not foresee this piece of written essay as a form of punishment because I expected something worse. Ban from using the car maybe? But all in all I was glad that everything turned out just fine. I did learn my lessons well and vowed never to repeat this foolish act in the future.

WAHT THE?!

2008-07-17T18:18:00.004+08:00

I just cannot believe i did a stupid stupid stupid thing... I was so close to being early for the first time in history to reach school early. But alas! I don't know how or why but somehow, i manage to lock my car keys in my car! Stupid... i know. Some more my car is the super manual type and worst of all my handphone is in the car! Foolish joanna...! All i know next is i foolishly thought by luck or chance i could get the car unlock using a metal ruler.. Then i remembered, oh i've got no experience of stealing a car (okay.. lame but that's what i really did)

In the end, i missed the early train and took the later one... with all my 'sum cheng' all mixed up. Anxious, worried, late, worried, pissed at myself, worried, lost..... Then when i was rushing to the station after making a call back home i ter-dropped my wallet! Great..... just great man. I noticed a 10 cents dropped out and a while piece of paper. Naively thought it was just a normal receipt (i have the tendencies to keep receipts in my wallet) i picked up my wallet and rush for the train. Then on the platform... i realise. THAT WHITE THING IS NOT JUST ANY PIECE OF RECEIPT!!! IT'S MY PICTURES.....! In the white envelope. Nooooo... and i spent a whole 15 bucks on it!!

Crap man... could this day get any better...?? Was nearly late for my duties, still having all my mixed up emotions and being angry with myself. Skipped recess because of chemistry class, freaking hungry. Then went straight for duty and senior dunno lost where.. and i also lost. *swt After school duty DC and hungry till wanna faint ady. Remembered i need to make calls and ran to public phone and menjadi semakin hungry.. whuaaa! Instead of going home straight like i use to do, i ended up walking a distance from Hang Tuah station to Amoda building just to get the spare keys from my mum. And now my pernah 'ter-sprained' ankle is in a great deal of pain.... oh, so great!

My stupidity definitely earn me something. What's the worst i'll 'kena' man?? A whole scrol long of lecture and lecture and lecture and a 1000 word essay due in 2 days.. Great! Entitled: The day i lock my keys in the car. And it has to be like essays you'd write for exams with perfect grammar and everything.. Oh, baby with my work load from school already... i'll just jump off the building larh....!

Stolen Time

2008-06-17T20:28:00.002+08:00

Once again i've abandon my little blog. I think i could only afford to log in once a week for updates. I'm feel so occupied that i don't have time for entertainment (which includes my tv) and myself anymore. Thankfully i manage to created some time for my 'daddy'. Even this post here, i stole some time from my homework time just to 'engrave' this post. So i'll just keep it short and sweet :) I actually have a few posts that i want to put it up, but time's not allowing me to do so. So i guess it'll have to wait then.. perhaps this weekend?

The reason why i'm finding it hard to cope with homework and stuff is because i've just shifted school. From a victorian to a mbs-ian. Teachers in mbs have a train speed of teaching and we've not covered much while i was in vi waiting for the approval. So every now and then i'm always lost in class because everything is kinda alien. I really need to read up every 'left behind' topic and try understand it. I can't figure how am i going to do it with the added amount of homework and self study everyday. The load's getting heavier :(

Which leads me to a testimony :) Thru' this approval of my school transfer application i actually realise how good the Lord has been to me. How real he reveals himself when you persist on in prayers and continue to trust in him even though things seems to be out of hand. He really do know how much i could hang on there until i'm really at the verge of giving up all hope. Then he sent me an 'angel' to direct me with crystal clear instructions. What should i do, who should i see and where should i go..

It all started : My application was rejected. I desperately wanted to transfer no matter what. On friday the 13th i went over with my aunt to mbs to see the headmaster for a 'sokongan' letter. He just said- go PPD and see this guy. (What's PPD lah?!) Then as we we're about to walk out, still standing in front of the office suddenly this 'penyelaras Form6' lik "lower 6 ah, come!". Apa lagi, go only lah. Everything was like a coincidence. She just wanted to that jabatan guy to stop approving students cause the school is full. Imagine what would have happen if we had just walked off. So she kinda made an exception for me that the jabatan guy should approve my application. Everything's like God's timing!

So we walked to PPD which is near vi. But things weren't that easy. That guy decide to play on us. He didn't want to sign anything but asked me to go back to vi and ask for another new application typed out and signed by the 'pengetua'. What could we do? But getting a new application form wasn't the hardest.. it was when getting that old hag's signature (opps, sorry) She practically criticized my reasons, that i'm bull-shitting and everything else she could with the MUET teacher (which have once earned a high respect from me) But she did sign anyway. Confident as she was that the jabatan definitely won't approve. So after that we went back to the 'pejabat pendidikan daerah'.

When giving him the form, i was really nervous la. But i prayed very very hard that everything would be as it is. I even debated with Him. How daring i was... Because he's already given me the first part so why not the other half as well? That guy asked a lot of questions.. thankfully i did pray that the words spoken are words of wisdom from God. Everything he asked, we'd answer with confidence and could also 'tembak' him. :D Finally, he approved!!!!!!! I was awed by His works of wonders. You know, God gives but sometimes not that easily. He would want to let you go through loads of halangan's so you'll be able to endure-make you better and stronger. Then you'll be braver to face a bigger 'giant' next time :) and won't retreat

2008-05-28T00:56:00.005+08:00

Newspaper reviews sort of thinks Prince Caspian was below expectation. But i personally thought it was *double thumbs up*!! Though some scenes requires flashbacks to The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe, some were hard to catch but i don't care... This just gives me a reason to hehe.. watch it again :p If i did that for the first why not make history repeat :)

Below and it's description might be spoilers to those who have yet to catch the movie.... And if you're the one, i greatly encourage go for it!

This is the scene where they reached Aslan's How... Like the way the 4 sons of Adam walked through as kings and queens of the past time while the centaurs hold up their swords. There's this young centaur who couldn't hold his sword up high enough and his father gotta help him... it's a bit funny

Little Lucy (Georgia henley)

This believe in Aslan that's in her kind of like hitted me. Especially the scene where she finally found Aslan in the woods and hugged him.. Imagining Aslan as the Lord, shouldn't we come to him this way too? It's lucy's childlike simplicity that she saw Aslan.. and i guess in the Lord we should always remain a child and not use our learned knowledge and play logic with Him.. Oh yea, lucy represents faith in the story!

Queen Susan (anna popplewell)

So 'yeng' man when she lead the narnians to war.. and her archery skills were :D But she's not returning to narnia anymore and so is peter cause they've already learned everything they could in Aslan's land. It's time to move on...

High King Peter... (William moseley)

Who fought courageously with lord miraz. Despite he fail to save half the narnians while raiding miraz's castle, he had compassion for them..

King Edmund (skander keynes)

Edmund was the total opposite from The lion, the witch and the wardrobe. He believed in Aslan still as much as lucy does.. He proved himself when he shutters the wall of ice to destroy the mirage of the witch.. incase his brother falls into the trap this time. The other funny part was when he representing narnia to challange Lord Miraz.. correcting miraz himself when he said 'prince edmund. "It's king edmund. Just 'King Edmund'. Well, peter is the High King.. It's complicated i know.." Sarcastic betul... but nicely said :)

Prince Caspian (ben barnes)

The spanish accented prince is so attractive when he says to his uncle miraz "keep your life but i'm giving the narnians back what it theirs". When he lead the narnians in the collapse of underground tunnels underneath the army. When he rescues susan.. and wishes he had more time with her >.<

joyousjoanna says:
He's hot, hott, hawt...! Can't wait for The Chronicles of Narnia: Voyage of the Dawn Treader starring 'King Caspian'. Releases 2010!!! (hoola..!)

P.S. mel and mei if he's the edward cullen with his Spanish accent and looks, Edward is perfect!! Agree agree? or still wanna go with the 'cedric diggory'

Not forgetting... Reepicheep the swashbuckling mouse

He's such a cute thing.. and it was really hilarious when he tied the cat with ropes. Hahaha... how did he manage? Hey, notice CS lewis seem to have a liking for mice..? He used mice to free aslan before and in caspian, there's the sword mouse troup

Lalala.. i don't care. Gonna watch it again... after camp. Who's up for it?!

On a beautiful sunday evening

2008-05-25T15:20:00.004+08:00

He look just so colorless and frankly i'm a lil' bored. So i decide to..

Give him a treat!

It's piggy bone those which you use to boil yummy soup :)

Which is where popping ideas of cam whoring with my doggie came about

I'm sorry.. he's being camera shy :S

This is actually just an act. When i wanted to bend lower and take a snap..

He stood up and showed me his ugly bone...! sigh..

So far the best i can get out of him.. he refuses to pose :(

We got fed-up with kouvo and cam whore ourselves instead. Cousin and i..

Out of boredom, promoting my grandmother's white orchid

Look at the 'ladies dancing'

Went in the house and called my other doggie... Her doggie expression explains it all :)

YES?!

The Rakit Experience

2008-05-02T23:02:00.009+08:00

Kayak was the one of a thing i wanted to play with ever since my std. 6 'kem bina semangat'. I thought i saw this coming my way when i was selected. Sadly, no. Instead we only did rakit-ing... Mainly also because it's the number of us and the 'jurulatih' wants all of us to have a go. But hey, what they want to cultivate in us is team work. So rakit-ing is definitely a good practice :) Cause if everyone does their own thing, the rakit would not budge an inch.. Despite the waters don't seem hygienic, all the fun was what counts. Except all the washing we had to do in the end =.=

Kayak's left untouched

Walk the long journey to the lake for rakit competition :)

Try-outs held a week before..

Then the real competition starts...

With the guys striving for the best, to gain fame for ones company

Bravo guys company arriving with second placing!

Girls turn... But we end up with third placing when first placing was within our grasp during the first half of the competition

And oh, how the heart longs for such captivating scene

Mesmerizing M-16 Material

2008-04-16T22:38:00.011+08:00

Just by reading the title triggers your adrenaline? Yeahh... all the same goes to each and everyone of us when news leaks out. We'll be shooting on the 18-20 february. There goes the normal routine procedures, us being dividing into groups for pre-shooting lessons (theory la means) to shotting pals (8 in a group) to bus ridings. We got all excited.... and checked the schedule posted on the buletin board. Ah, what a shame! We don't get to hold the gun for 3 days... just a day. Starting off with Alpha and Bravo company first, we did theory with those martials.... while Charlie and Delta had their kenegaraan classes as usual. (Oh, did i ever mention there we're divided into 4 companies- alpha, bravo, charlie and delta. Therefore suppose to faithfully stick to our companies for all activities. I proudly announce myself as a Bravo-ian)

So monday morning- pre-shooting lessons! We had some talk about how the gun works, it's physical theory, in-builts and history. Which we're suppose to jot down notes or at least pay attention or else i think the martial would ask us run the whole 'padang kawad'. Cause' when we barely knew him he made us ran back to our dorms to get notebooks and pens in 2 minutes. Which was quite impossible with the heavy gigantic spike boot and the distance of the dorms from our lesson station.

After those foreign theory is all being forced into our brain somehow, we're given a 30 minutes time-out. Tuning back, we're gotta experience holding the gun ^.^ how to aim and the right way to lie on grounds

M-16's left on the table while we're all off for a break. I tried holding it....indeed a weighty material

Practical lessons...

See the yellow board there..? We're suppose to lie on those ponchos holding the gun and try aiming for bullseye! But no shotting lah...

Just so tempted to take this shoot up close :)

Now the martial demonstrates the right way of lying. Whether you're a lefty or righty determines your lying position

A bit sexist though, but he requested for the guys to try it out first while the girls watch closely and suntan ourselves a bit also ler

It's finally the girls turn :D With the lady martial guiding. Wondering where are the guys? Well, they've decided to wait for us under the shades. Feel that in ns those guys seem weaker than girls... they visit the medic frequently and can't stand sun =.=

From left, me with my compatible friends peihann and aising and likei my dorm mate..

Another day just passed like that.... Bringing tuesday along. Excitement whispers fills the whole hall when the teacher announced the time we should leave for the shooting site. Waking up at 3 in the morning and take-off at 4.30 am. Excited as we are, but once we reached the bus took our places everyone started to doze again. We stopped at some 'surau' for the muslims to pray at 6 then continue our journey. Never had it crossed my mind that from kuala kubu bharu to banting was that far! It took us almost 2 hours plus..

At 7.30am we finally arrived at the Banting shooting site... still 2 buses have yet to arrive.

Tranquility.... a quite place surrounded by mountains and trees. You could almost hear insects sing their orchestra.

We lined up and make sure non is missing from our groups. We then sang the national anthem and

Another demonstration. This time with real shootings... incredibly loud bangs were heard as many as 20 times and with mountains surrounding the area you can imagine the feedbacks of the bangs! And then the smell of smoke... caused by the bullets

Then it's our turn... Alpha company goes first. Leaving the Bravo's all nervous with stomachs doing twist and turns. At the same time playing in our minds are thoughts of how foolishly will we shoot and miss the targets and end up with embarrassingly low marks. This is our shooting competition.. with 20 bullets each. After a long never seem to end wait... it's now

my turn... was really nervous i admit :P

Walking in lines into the site to our respective places was even nerve racking.. Looking at the 'pengasuh's' serious face made things worse.

I was wrong... they were actually friendly people. I did eventually liked my 'pangasuh'. She's so funny and cute. Here's why...

I walked in and stood there with a blank mind. Next thing i knew she was pointing at me and said "eh, sama!" Blurr as i normally am i blurted out a "harh?!" And she pointed at her braces.. haha.. then she turn to the left pulling me along and showed her friend. The friend's reaction was "wah.. kembar lah!" We just look at each other a second and burst into laughter. And i had thought that they're extremely serious people some more.

Putting on ear muff's and walking towards the blue thing... and lie on it. While we adjust ourselves to a comfy position, our 'pengasuh' will load the gadget for us. So all we have to do is apply some force to the 'picu ' M-16 :)

And aim hard lah of course.. The priceless experience? Everyone keeps on repeating that you'll get bruises after the shot cause of the explosion + gun weight. But no, if you hold it the right way the blue-black spots won't pay a visit. Before i was ready, i heard someone bullet left for the aim chart. It was really loud...! So i took a deep breath, aimed really hard, hold my breath and let loose my first bullet. (It's not advisable to breath when you shoot, might miss the aim) How surprise am i when all i heard was the mechanism of the bullet moving out of the gun i was holding and not the loud bang...

So i had 20 shots and all the fun was over. Results announced. I had 1-19-0. Which means 81/ 100 ^.^ (First number x5, second x4 and the last x3)

After everyone's done, the martials unload every gun thus preparing to keep them and pick every empty bullet remnants. While we form lines to 'berikrar' than we did not keep any of the empty bullets with us and if we do, tindakan keras akan diambil...

We're the Bravo 'hua ren' taking a group shot just before our shooting game starts

Zarina, my pengasuh and me. We actually didn't plan for this.. it was the whole gang of guy soldiers who suggested we should take a picture together. Since both also wearing braces...

Melissa, cg. Hanif and me (our beloved character building teacher who loves taking shots)

Another shot with cg. Yati, also our character building teacher. Nice and straight forward teacher..

This round with cg. Ayim who perasan he 'leng chai'... was melissa's kenegaraan class teacher.

This is the kind of something that would never leave my memory banks unless i lost my memory by accident. Chances don't just appear.. and now i somehow understand why the 'jurulatih' there always say we're the chosen ones, the lucky ones. (which most of us consider ourselves 'malang' to be picked for this training) But looking from the experience angle, things are way different. There's always a reason behind everything. Hmmm.. if and only if i can play shooting again.... yea right, bullets very cheap la now!

Community calling

2008-03-27T23:07:00.007+08:00

It's finally the days we long awaited!! Time for community service... (which also means we're able to get out of camp!) So this is how they handle things since our batch is chasing time. We're again divided into groups and each team would go to a different place. Then at night, we'll all gather and each group is suppose to sent its representative and give a summary on what they did, personal encounter and lessons learnt.

So to where my community calling brings me???

Assigned to catch a glimpse of what firefighter does.... after some talk here we are admiring the gigantic machine we all question. What's in it anyway?

The head of firefighter showing us the 'water gun' (i dunno what's it call lah.. He talks way to fast my pen can't chase up)

A wira trying out the apparatus. Mind you it was really heavy! No wonder firefighters needs physically fit and strong :)

So what else is in that gigantic machine?

The water pump control system which is at the back of the machine... The truck is fat cause it's able to drink up to 1400 liters of water!

Those 'kalis api' stuff and ponchos...

The 'water gun' thing..... and i can't make out what others are (sorry >.<)

Lightings and extendable ladders... which comes in handy at all emergency times

Electronic saws.... and machines of (again i dunno what)

Demo of the breathing apparatus. Very very useful when a firefighter walks heroic-ly into a burning building to save trapped innocents from the hungry devouring red flames

Thinking what has this gotta do with our community services??

Digging and looking for the 'hidden' chamber which protects the hydrant water control

Hard work of opening the hydrant water control pipe. After that there's endless muddy water shooting out of the hydrant but sadly i didn't manage the shot :(

Yeah... our service was to clear, clean, test and paint every single hydrant planted in this little chinese village

The fact that it was really enjoyable might surprise you but think about it.. In a life time how many times would you come across chances like this, the chance of a life time for you to dig and see for yourself how hydrants work

We're now 17+1

Birthdate babies in Ns feels like....

On the 15 february, one of my dorm mate you yin from terengganu celebrated her birthday! She looks so small but she's already... hehe.. older than any of us. Up next, Melissa's birthday on the 22 february. But i did not participate 'cause we're in a different dorm and it rained very heavily that day....

Here's a group picture of us celebrating you yin's birthday. You yin's the one in red and Melissa is the one in purple...

Supposedly, moose cake but sadly because of the hot weather it melted and doesn't look appetizing. But we manage to whack the whole thing anyway

Our first time, my first time celebrating birthdays without our families... i thought it won't even feel like it's your day. No sooner... the day arrives. As i sat up on my bed rubbing my eyes and still half asleep, a girl opposite my bed "Happy birthday joan!" I was caught by surprised.... then they started singing singing birthday tunes. As the day went along... The whole company sang birthday tunes during breakfast and before bedtime in different languages, friends advertise it's my birthday and got loads of wishes from friends of other company and also teachers :D

There was also another surprise they did for me that i'll remember in my entire life. I didn't expect any of this would come my way. At about 11 when lights were suppose to be off, they whole gang suddenly came in with the cake singing birthday tunes! I was...... touched.

Since it's already running late, quick wish and quickly cut the cake so everyone can eat

American chocolate cake. (That's why it's already half cutted when i took a picture of it since i was really.....)

In contrast,

See lah what my family they all gave me! They visited on the 24 february and brought me this.. then say "nah, this is your birthday cake"

None of us thought that celebrating our birthdays in ns would very much enjoyable. I thought so too. But it seems i was very wrong indeed. I had the best day one could ever wished for! God is has really been extremely good to me that He gave me such good buddies. I mean i barely know them like for 3 months and they are so ever willing to spent money and share out buying the cakes. Moreover, each person's birthday an individual cake!

A group photo- aising, melissa, peihann,sookyin, leann, youyin, likei and yeejin!

Never forgotten, dila. That day, every moment she sees me she'll stop by and sing a birthday tune. She even ask a chinese girl to teach her the chinese version just to sing it to me.... though notty and loves to bully me but she's truly a dear friend. Really miss the time we fought over an innocent pipe to bath and spraying water at each other....

**Edited (31 March 2008)

Ahhh.... what should i say? Double celebration also jadi lah.... Sweet17th birthday suefinn!! May you continue to grow and walk with the Lord and may his abundant blessings be poured richly unto you... :)

Puzzle pieces

2008-03-19T00:19:00.010+08:00

Instructions:
Browse through the posted puzzle pieces with intense attention. Note every detail. Next, try putting them together. If an angel decides to give you a hand, you might get the whole picture :P

Ready to take up the challenge??

Padang kawad- where kumpul early in the morning, for morning exercise, before going for classes and emergencies(there was once a major black out.. and the surroundings were~pitch dark!)

Urusetia- the headquarters and that's where they keep our... handphones!

Medic- Which is where you'll go if you feel sick. But i despise... because of their lack of attitude, poor noble values and some personal reason~(some of you would know :)

Chalets- located opposite the medic and i believe the commander and high-rank people all live in those. Ada air-cond some more!!

The PLKN vehicle- Did us great job by carrying those needed equipments for our physical activities whenever we were suppose to walk to our destination (which is out of camp... woohoo!)

Dewan makan- that's where we are feed 6 meals a day! And also our tempat berkumpul at night, when it rains, camp events and other activities... yeah, the food suck. To them it's like sugar, chilly and oil's free.

Dewan kuliah- there are 4 blocks and 7 classes. Here's where we have our character building, integrasi, penghayatan sastera dan budaya, kerohanian and kenegaraan classes. We're randomly divided :/

The cafe- where food with quality slightly higher than the canteen could be obtain. They also sell items like bucket, padlocks, notebooks.... ect. Many including the teachers would hangout here what more on sundays, our holiday!

Padang bola- Football, netball, basketball and volleyball is played during our riadah time from 5.30pm-6.30pm. Some will play games, some will jog around and most will just sit around and chit-chat

Kembara halangan- obstacle course consist of 6 meter wall, tarzan swing, monkey rack, a tunnel and those wire thing where you crawl underneath

Oh look look... the fenced up area shows the girls dormitories.

The dorms...

Wisma- a place for maggi cup cooking and to melapor diri for night duties. Night duties is like patrolling around the camp from 11pm till 5am. For girls our area only covers the girls dormitories and there's 3 shifts. Each day a different company' shall duty and is rotate among company dorms.

First shift- 11pm to 1am, making sure each one goes go sleep and sleeps on their own beds
Second shift- 1am to 3am, the hardest of all with nothing to do except walking from dorm to dorm looking at others sleep contributes to piled up weariness (i did the second shift~almost died of sleepiness)
Third shift- 3am to 5am, walks from dorm to dorm switching off their fans and switch on lights waking everyone up exactly at 5. These privilege people can continue to sleep after duty till 7

It's sort of like our living room. They have a water cooler and also a television set there but with poor reception. Clearest reception ever RTM1 and there's no 8TV or even NTV7 =.= Plenty of mosquitoes too!

Public phone- menjadi rebutan ramai when our phones are kept. People buy phone cards lik prepaids or has a container of coin collection. Bila-bila ada free time sure got people occupy one...

Toilets-On the far end, that's for washing our clothes and the kolam for bathing if you have sarung. There's shower rooms of course :)

Although it's 3 feet deep... we are not allowed to swim in there :( but sometimes rules are meant to be broken. Once a week like we clean the toilets and before emptying the kolam we'll play water first. hehe.....!

Dorm E2- It's like my home for almost 3 months. We're a family of 16 with 3 chinese, 1 sarawak-ian, 1 sabahan and 11 malays. There's my bed is at the far end on the right.

Kit-layout- practically this is what every bed much look like each morning before we kumpul at 6.30am till 5.00pm. Points are counted for this and if you don't do it properly, it's fore-warn that we might find our beds and lockers thrown out. (but they say only lah..)

Caution: high level of imagination and brain juice required :P

Near at heart...

Last engraved memoir before we part with 'ji club' as background and joel's sesat head.... (those who sat in haiyen's car would understand the ji club thing :p)

Take care okay.. i'll always uphold you in prayer. For every single thing holds a purpose..plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Take heart and be encourage behold whatever hardship you face there, the Lord knows. Use this opportunity to draw closer to Him and to depend on him fully. You'll experience and realise many things that you've failed to see before.

The last lunch....

2008-02-10T14:28:00.003+08:00

Sigh.... it's time to go. These few days passed much too quickly for me to enjoy. It felt like Chinese New Year has just the begun. But here am i busy packing up all my things and heading back for 'Khidmat Negara' again. But i guess with all the activities lined up, one month's time would soon be over.... Anyway here's something that might make your mouth watery... if you drool on your keyboard, don't blame me :P

Finally a proper reunion 'makan' with the closest relatives and a family friend from korea. Ah, he's consider part of our family... i've known him like forever! And so we had...

Chicken with ginger....

Prawn fritters...

Mixes vegetables...

Steamed prawn with egg white... my favourite!

Fishballs, sea anemone and 'i dunno what' in soup!

Simple as it may be, but i really appreciate what's served on the table. Perhaps it's the laugher and fellowship that we share that makes this moment precious. Something no money can measure. Besides it's the sincerity and the love of our dear cook for each one of us that counts.

Then a bit unfair one woh.. lil' girl have her own 'drumstick' >.<

Gobble them up quite fast eh.. not a single strand of meant left, only bones

So the poor doggie is left with non... and complains to mummy... hehe
(chicky bone not good for doggie.. so we feed them d' meat. Well, not always)

Definitely something not to be missed!

YEE SANG....! We self-added shreaded carrot, turnip, abalone and pamelo.

Love this a lot... although it's very unhealthy but... don't understand why pack them like this... what's the point of wasting more plastics??

Glimpse of NS open day...

2008-02-07T00:53:00.001+08:00

Let you have some sneak peak lah. These pieces of 'memory' is captured during "Hari Terbuka Kem' for the whole Malaysia which falls on the 19th of January. Loads of families came especially those from selangor. We had a lot of fun preparing for this glorious event and really put in a lot of effort in entertaining our parents with cultural dances....

Starting off with lion dance!!

Lion taking oranges from the 'lion tamer'

Just a few days of practice.. they are considered 'geng' ady lohh

The 'musicians'

The lion dance team!

Pei hann(shah alam) and ai sing(sarawak) with the lion head :P

Tarian kipas...... they call 'san zhi wu'

Tarian india...

Sumazau dance!!.... from sarawak

They share their culture and we glad fully learn :)

The 'komanden kem' invited to dance along...

Dikir barat... bimbingan our beloved KJ misai! (kj means ketua jurulatih)

Up coming... bangala dance which they dragged KJ to join....

....and also cikgu Hanif who almost all girls going crazy about him because of his looks... (known as the most leng chai and yeng teacher in the camp and he's akhem.. quite young and and and... still single and available!)

Tents put up for display.... i think we're going to sleep in these during 'wirajaya'!

This is our class... where every morning after breakfast we will proceed.

Something i'm glad about. They provide lockers....! Forgive my messy-ness...

If you're questioning.... KKB is a model camp thus it's very very clean and beautiful. Much better than what i had in mind before reaching there. The teachers are really really nice creatures and they don't eat 'pelatih' unless you're not obedient and break rules. Going there also challenged my chinese....! I don't know la maybe it's just my camp but every chinese speaks chinese there!! Besides the food there sucks it's really enjoyable. Although every single day can really drain all your strength but all the experience's worth! Questioning about M-16?? That's yet to come la... perhaps after CNY. Then when i come back the next round there's definitely a lot to type in here...

Program Latihan Khidmat Negara

2007-12-29T00:32:00.001+08:00

Looks like i'll be off for NS then.... Go there must be "patriotic" for 3 months.. hehe.. And dear blog, i have no choice but to abandon you for a while :(

I'm definitely gonna miss unggarians, liz, joycee, and the entire youth force.. miss church.. my bed.. piano.. guitar.. (the list goes on)

**Pictures shall be up when i come back :)

Happy Birthday Jie!!

2007-12-27T21:56:00.000+08:00

A birthday dedication to my dear sister... she's a special child and i guess that's what makes us learn a lot about patience and how to care for other and put other's needs first. I believe she's a gift from God and not a burden for He knows how much each individual could bear on our shoulders... and i know God let this happen so that we may mature and grow, learn the ways of life and in the process mold us to be more Christ-like.

Just in a click of time she's already 19!

Lord, may you continue to watch over my sister.... and bless her abundantly!

Tis' the season to be jolly...

2007-12-26T00:24:00.000+08:00

It's time to hang the lights,
It's time to trim the trees,
It's time to decorate the house with red and green!
Come on Christmas time,
I'm waiting just to see
My presents stacked up under the tree waiting for me!
(Christmas is Forever©)

It's all the presents stacking under the tree waiting for me!!!

Whoa!!!! A wish came true!! The game of life.... THANK YOU aunty!!!

pssstt...! Sneak peak...

Badak bedroom selipars from mei earn!!! Badak is so cute don't you think so??

hug-able soft soft Christmas pillow from wendy!

A little solar monkey for my lovely 'car' from melissa!!

A 'j' necklace from my most loved grandmother... and crotchet necklace from myself :P

Peppermint candy canes on the 'cherry pine' tree! You may pluck one down and eat them :)

My naughty monster and ghostly dog's christmas treat! They'll love them...

And a 'cat' for a little girl (Her mum hated genuine cats... hahaa)

Form 5 CG Port Dickson trip

2007-12-25T00:23:00.000+08:00

Such a disbelieve to see time pass this fast. And we've all went through our major major exams! Yet again, now standing at cross roads making decision that would determine the future.... Nah, we'll leave that for later. Now let us enjoy and fellowship with all Form five-ian and leaders leaders sekalian....

We went to Port Dickson. Yeah, it's common but it's the cheapest but it's the fun and laughter that counts right?? The happening event was at 14-15 dec 2007. And we did have a great time together although there's a bit of unfortunate event that happened even before we started out journey. Praise be to our Lord that the rest went smoothly and granting us safe journey mercy.

King Bun for lunch...

Ahh... no wonder la so big. There's curry chicken in it!

It's our 'villa'!!! (for a day) Actually not much of a villa lah.. just some corner double story lot. Don't know why they advertise it as 'villa'.

Big bullies who lost in the game and kena denda!

When the rain stopped we zoomed to the beach... haiyen tak sabar already.

Liz, me, hseinny, joyce, janice

And we played beach volleyball.. eh no! It's sea volleyball....

Next, the game designed by the 'fun planners'. "The plastic water attack!"

First you 'gus' see who wins the round.... And when victory is your group can have a throw at the opposite group.

But before that ah... must discuss one :P

You'd better watch out!!

Then the last attack was the poor 'fun planner'. 'Cause we're all wet but she's still dry... hahaah

There's the banana boaty too!! With 8 of us on it....

And while we boaty they soaky..

And without warning the guy 'terbalikkan' us... oh look, there's only 4! Where's the other 4?!

Up coming event, the sand-lady

Together with the supporting team and builders of the sand-lady

It's sunset by then... and we decided to keep this piece of memory.

A group photo.... like we would ever make it out who is who.

After the delicious steamboat fellowship.... the worship and sharing session.

Miss supervisor pouring in chicken soup... hehe... ie means we can dig in soon :P

Look at the food on the table!!! Yum... meatballs... i can still remember everyone fighting for that round thing... haha

Worship with joshua the guitarist and the blurr and confused psalmist bryan..

Sharing session with elizabeth with the topic-spend more time with God

Everyone after that retired to respective rooms and started chatting until we all dozed off...

The early bird breakfast cook.....

Cooking us yummy american breakfast!

Then there's morning devotion with haiyen sharing... joyce! don't advertise pantene hair lah

It's then time to depart... without resisting temptations, we dropped by at bayu beach for a photo shot. Its white sandy beach is undenyingly tempting

The Form 5 CG leaders.... (missing tommy and grace)

A snap with the girls..... (christine apparently decided she's not a girl at that moment)

Another few snap snap with the entire CG!!

Selipars show-offs???

Respect Rarity

2007-12-07T13:06:00.000+08:00

The issue on respect. Who doesn't want to be respect? Yes yes.. everyone does (including you I believe) These are my respect rarity cases...

CASE 1

4 teenagers once went to a 'high-class' buffet restaurant. They have already made reservations but still need to que up with others who made no reservations. This would of course arise curiosity. If the reserved need to que like those unreserved, then why must anyone make efforts calling them to reserve places?! So 3 went up the person in-charge. A guy whose english is very broken and has got serious pronounciation problem. But the guy did not even bother to set eyes on them and decided not to entertain. They thought maybe it's because the guy did not want others to think if the teenagers manage to go in by enquiry it might cause others to follow suite. A couple went up to him and... (yes, you've guessed) He did entertain them!! Now, what does it suppose to mean?

He's not entertaining because they were young teenagers?!
He thinks we do not need to be respected as customers?!
He thinks 'kids' like us do not have money to pay for such luncheon?!

CASE 2

A little girl needs to go to kindergarden. Since it's rainy these days, the teacher decides to cancel swimming class and called parents to pick their kids up. It was then they called a teenager's home and told her that swimming class is cancelled, come pick her up at ELEVEN o'clock. Starring at the clock hand pointed almost, she feels a bit irritated because she's watching an interesting movie. Nevertheless, she went out. But when she reached that far-away kinder to her amazement the principle told her "Owh, the class ends at 12....!" There's when she got pissed! They told her it was 11 not 12! Worse, non actually wanted to admit their mistake but instead push them to others and make me the one who heard it wrongly. The principle to assistant "owh.. my assistant must have made a mistake!" Then assistant says "You don't know the normal class time one meh?" MADER! You think i'm her keeper ah!!! Worse still, when they heard she was just some 17 year old teenager she was treated like a piece of rubbish coming to pick the little girl! They offered a word of sorry without sincerity. I thank you! You could have it back. I don't need that kind of apology!!

This is the thing i don't get. Why must the world only respect those older ones? Doesn't mean you're older and you deserve much respect and those youngers are just pieces of rubbish! I would dare say that some younger ones are even more honourable and respectable than those in the outside world. How could you expect someone to respect you when you yourself don't learn to respect others first! Doesn't mean they are young and you look down upon them. I tell you that they are more capable than you adults are. Those workers in Q-dees (lensen branch) You don't earn my respect...! Sorry to say i would only respect those who first know how to respect themselves.

Another thing, is admitting your mistake and saying a word sorry that hard?! Their lack of sincerity made me really pissed off! "owh sorry ahh.." What was that suppose to mean!! It was you who said the time was ELEVEN and i doubled confirmed with you and you said YES!! How dare you say it was my own mistake and them treated me like a piece of rubbish just because i am a young kid... Yeahlah i know i'm 17, no experience, still a small kiddy, immature........ I am not so much of pissed with driving there a few times. What really makes me angry is the thoght if those 'adults' way of talking to me, the way they push responsibilities to each others ending up blaming me and an apology! But anyway, it's too late your apology will be rejected. And i shall assure that next time i won't send my kids there!!! Spoil my whole beautiful day...

Somebody, say something to this will you??

It's F.R.E.E.D.O.M baby!

2007-12-04T01:03:00.000+08:00

Oh yeah oh yeah... Bide farewell to useless textbooks, ugly examination papers, 10kg reference books, crazy exercise books, messy study table, sleepless nights,

Crumpled SPM slip = Peperiksaan awam Sijil Peperiksaan Malaysia

Horrible uniforms, ties and ribbons... hee i won't burn them.. donate to those who needed desperately needed them except the tie =)

THE EXTREME MAKE OVER!

Papers and books all over during SPM... not to mention the condition of the room was...

Merciless amount of books pilling up for revision.

When everyone has earned freedom and the battle is still going on.

But the study table was still as messy as ever!

Then, the final battle and books are back in their place again.

But not for long...

Ahhh.. life is beautiful again! Owh... the neatness won't last. In a few days it'll be messy again..

PSSST!

Went to Pavillion after the last battle.. Definately a splendid work of architecture and gorgeous interior designing!! Floor 1 is heavenly....

The Crabby story

2007-11-03T22:44:00.000+08:00

Once upon a time there was 4 Crabbie's brought from the market. At the little cottage, a lucky crabbie was picked out. What for? You're not only gonna cook and eat one are you??

Read on for fate of the lucky selected crabbie......

The lucky crabbie... consider yourself blessed =p

For the experiment of mr. Kouvo and ms. Banshee

The crab i think a bit scared of him and semakin jalan...

But the monster would not leave him alone!! Although he's being cautious, curious and a bit takut of dear crabbie

"Why is this ugly black and white thing following me?! I want my friends!!'

Nyah! They both cornered lucky crabbie....

"Do you really have to take Crabbie away??? I'm bored!"

P.S. Crabbie's are still alive and well... Akhem, for now =)

Have I Told You Lately....

2007-10-17T21:21:00.000+08:00

Raya holidays, Roy's didn't open. So we've decided to have our discussion at Mel's house. Tempat yang teramat strategik, poolside. Lembu is finally vegetarian, officially a grass eater.. but happily 9 days only. So we cannot redeem our beloved pizza... and lunch, called 1300-13-1300. Which cause much trouble having to take details... and i'm order lady who pretended to be ms. melissa... =)

Curse the delivery guy! Told them to meet in guard house. Written in special instruction and he's a bit blind he can't see. We waited at the guard house and he blind again did not realise us there. Sneaked in and mr. guard shouted at him. Panicked, stop by and chatted with those indian guys. NOOO!!! Our sundae!! Curse curse curse...

So they turn melty and... he forgot our fries!!! DENG! =_=" Called them again and complain puas puas. They gave us too much chilly and ketchup...so they become...

Checkers tokens..... with added elements.. =)

It's getting hotter and we migrated. Parents went out so we continued at...

If you happen to live in Condo's you'll know. Come on' make a wild guess....
(Learning motion with cikgu wendy)

We got so so bored and got no mood to study anymore...so lets' party!!

'Snaped' again

2007-10-12T21:17:00.001+08:00

Okay... i didn't wanna do this.. but wendy force me!!! My dog... (yes, that monster down there) decided to bite me maybe 'cause i had another dog's scent. He came in to the house and kept jumping on me... joanna being too tired and sleepy was pulling him off and there's where he......

This was yesterday's wound... after washing with dettol and everything....

Yeap, today wound... see wendy?? i told you it's better. Less red less bloody and it's beginning to heal... probably fast cause i really did sleep a lot.

Talking about sial-ness about this left hand of mine... first my old dog bite... which still has a scar on my finger.. then kena cut by the 'ice kacang' machine blade.... and now...

Wendy, i'm fine... i promise if this doesn't heal by monday.... i'll get a life and see the horrible doctor which will feed my 'beautiful finger' with needles...

To show that i'm camwhor-ing infront of the comp... with wen's conversation behind.

So you don't dare say he's cute.... he's not! See how sharp those teeth are??? Although i sedang melancarkan kempen duwan to 'choi' him.... but no matter what i'll still love him... He's adorable sometimes... well... s-o-m-e-t-i-m-e-s..

Carry Your Cross

2007-10-07T21:48:00.000+08:00

This would be something you'd dislike... But it's my blog so... (read the title again) You can read them, hate them, curse them or think throughly about them. Your choice.

Whatever your cross,

whatever your pain,

there will always be sunshine,

after the rain ....

Perhaps you may stumble,

perhaps even fall,

But God's always ready,

To answer your call ...

He knows every heartache,

sees every tear,

A word from His lips,

can calm every fear ...

Your sorrows may linger,

throughout the night,

But suddenly vanish,

in dawn's early light ...

The Savior is waiting,

somewhere above,

To give you His grace,

and send you His love ..

Whatever your cross,

whatever your pain,

"God always sends rainbows ....

after the rain ... "

To get out difficulty one must usually pass through it. There is no shortcut. Avoiding would bring more grief to the heart and you'll tend to lack more. Always remember that God will never give you more than you can bear-so bear it willingly and rejoice when times of reward comes. =)

Fragile life reminder

2007-09-28T22:08:00.000+08:00

Everything that happened this very day was so fine you'd think it was a perfect day. From the glorious food to the craziest laughters... Death would have never crossed your little mind. You were quite happy 'cause it's finally time to go home and the aroma of sweet smelling dinner awaits.... You came near a junction and many... many crowded there and you wonder what lies ahead. You know for sure it was an accident. The traffic police was there to direct the traffic as cars crawl slowly crossing the 'cross-junction'. Approaching nearer and nearer to the scene, you saw loads and loads of glass shatters, there were motorcycles around and cars align at the opposite road. You decided you've never witness such a tragedy before and without second thoughts poke your nose to the window and try to take a glimpse of the chaos happening out there.

But you instantly regretted your own keen-ness to over look the scene. Your bare eyes saw this:
A woman sitting by the curb crying and hugging a guys leg while the guy looked expressionless at the same time stern. Next, more people crowd over the other side of the road. Then, the most horrible of all things in an accident you did not prepare the faintless heart to see-A lifeless body! He was facing your direction and you saw it all... he was lying motionless by the side of the curb with blood covered all over his head and face... he still had his helmet on and wearing a florescent green jacket! You got a shock of your life! Your brain became blank for a moment...

So he must have some vehicle collide onto him and he got thrown or something. Whoever causes this, are they just blind or it was plainly unavoided? Why did this have to happen? Why can't people be more careful on the road? Don't you people realise that life is priceless? Accidents happen just like that. How would he have known that he's life cannot last untill the end of age? How would he have known that right then and there he lost his life forever?

Perhaps too old???
