Have you ever felt lucky and happy by just eating something as simple as a piece of small cake?

I realised that, I'm easily satisfied at times and can feel very happy as if I own the whole world eventhough it's just a tiny bit of thing. Haha... I'm insane, isn't it? Yeah I'm insane =)

Secret Recipe's (SR) cakes are my favourites, especially when it comes to their cheese and chocolate flavours. Went to SR at Melati Utama this afternoon... been longing for their cakes and tom yam ages ago. It's been some time since I went SR. Miss the cakes and tom yam. Even now to think back, my mouth's still watering =)

I know you'll say, "FAT la! Eat somemore!!!"

I don't care. Like my friend said, once in a while, rewarding ourselves is a good deed. Yeah I totally agree with that. I'm a chocoholic and cheesaholic, which explains why I have this kind of body shape haha. Anyway, if once in a while I eat and can feel soooooo happy about it, why not?

But seriously, if you always go there for only cakes, then you should also try out their famous award winning tom yam kung. I always go there for it! Muahaha.. one of my favourite dish, though it's kinda expensive =( Never mind.. once in a while.

And I found out something at this MU outlet. The cheese in Gordon Blue is counted quite a lot compared to other outlets. In many of the outlets, you won't see cheese. But in this outlet (maybe still new), you'll see hot creamy cheese sauce flowing out when you cut the meat. I swear, this is the 1st time I see cheese flowing out. *yummy*

Alright enough for Secret Recipe. Later people think that I'm paid to promote their food =_=''

-----------------------------------------------------------

Lately been quite busy. Don't know busy with what lol. Just busy. I'm always busy but don't know why there's still piles of things undone. Really sweat.

Next week I need to hand in 2 lab reports, do 1 presentation and sit for 1 mid-term test which happens to be Statistics. After last sem's Maths nightmare, more or less I have a bit phobia on this subject, though Statistics is much much easier than Maths for Engineering II. Anyway, I think I should be able to cope with it.

And about that presentation, how I wish I don't need to present it. It's not my favourite subject, which I doubt it's anyone's favourite subject. Pengajian Malaysia!!!! Who likes it?? NO ONE. Worse of all, presentation in Malay..... My Malay kns, always stuck here and there. Well, luckily not included in finals if not, die. Because the subject itself is already boring, and I'm sure noone loves to memorise it, noone except our PA lecturers. I'm always wondering, why we need to study this subject, which I think the probability that we will use it in the future will be near 0? No idea at all. To introduce Islam maybe, if you read our History textbook carefully back in high school.

Lost so many things today. Freaking unlucky day. Adrian told me that many of his friends have been yelling unlucky to him. Haha, is it an unlucky week for all of us? Hope I can find my water bottle back. I know it's not made of gold, but at least it was bought by my mom and wasn't very cheap. And for sure not those RM0.99 mineral water bottles. Hope the cleaner doesn't throw it in the dustbin like what Kelvin told me. He said he saw before those nice water bottles being thrown into rubbish bin. What the....??!!! At least make effort give it to the office or put in back to where it was found la. People's money you know....... Anyway, I think I've made a big deal about it which is quite pointless. Forget about it.

Thomas said: Love hurts, and it's hearbreaking.

Yeah I totally agree. Love at first may seem to be the most wonderful thing in the world. But in the end, it'll end up like shit. I experienced it before, and it sucks when things go wrong.

I pity my bestie sometimes. She's sooo in a love with a guy yet she has no way to express her feelings for him. I've never seen her soo deeply in love before. But this guy has never confess to her. Sometimes, somethings that he did will make you think that he's actually in love with her too. Sometimes, you'll feel that he's just treating her as a friend. She's suffering sometimes, just to guess he likes her or not. If you're her, you'll understand.

So, don't toy around with people's feelings. You'll just make them suffer. Vivi, just shout it out ok? Hehe.. 4 of us will always support you. But we can't afford to go Chilis with you =)

Alright till here. Going dim sum for breakfast at 5.30am later. We're crazy haha. I miss Penang dim sum!!!!!!

Some updates about me

Wow, after refreshing this page for uncountable times, finally, it is loaded successfully. DAMN line, don't know why it's so lag nowadays. Well, forget about it.

I know I've been missing for quite some time here and in msn. Haha so sorry. I was busy with WFC things and society stuffs. Then these few days, I was and am addicted to Hong Kong series - Forensic Heroes II and PSP game - tennis.

Well, talking about Forensic Heroes... I AM SO JEALOUS OF THEM!!!!!

Haha, how I wish I can be like them! It's my dream to be in forensic science field. I love to look for evidence to solve a mystery and seek the truth to help the innocents. Dealing with those super hi-end machines must be very FUN!!!! Cool cool cool..... *dreaming*

It has been a quite happy day for me because had a nice dinner with my housemates. It's not matter of food, but it's nice because all of us (excluding Shen Chie) finally had the time to gather together to gossip, exchange news, chit-chat about just anything and crack jokes together. The moments are soooo precious, because we rarely have the correct timing to gather together though we stay in the same house.

I would say that it's so lucky of me to be able to stay in the same house with them. Once in a while there might be misunderstanding and bei-syok-ness among us, but that will just last for a few minutes. One thing is for sure, I LOVE THEM!


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

Attended Traveler's Den's AGM this afternoon. The number of students who showed up in the AGM is quite of out of expectation. Because normally people will not attend it unless you are the previous committee. So well done, everyone! And thanks for attending it my fellows members!

Hmmm.. thought that I can relax more after WFC and AGM, mana tau now still involve in Traveler's Den. But never mind, Traveler's Den is not like the other societies or clubs... we're different and it's fun to be in here. The previous batch of committee really made a good team. Too bad that some of them are already in final year and cannot hold anymore posts in societies... will miss them! By the way, congrats to those who were chosen to be in the committee. For those who were not in the previous batch of committee, I hope that we can work well together and make Traveler's Den a legend. Hahaha... "to make Traveler's Den a legend" was what our Da Ge told me long time ago.

Speaking of AGM, if you're a Biological Science Society member, if possible please attend next week's AGM. I'll be going to support my hsemate. She's the current secretary. Vote for her!!!! She's very efficient and capable. By the way, her name is Li Pei =)

This will be a short post because I need to finish off my piles of homework.

Before I end, I would like to dedicate this back to a friend of mine:

Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some people move our souls to dance. They awaken us to the understanding with the passing whisper of their wisdom. Some people make the sky more beautiful to gaze upon. They stay in our lives for a while, leave footprints on our hearts, and we are never, ever the same.....

This kind of people truly exist because I've encountered before. Because of them, there is no more starless night. Instead, they themselves become the stars and moon, who will always shine brightly on you......that is why the sky becomes more beautiful to gaze upon :)

F.E.S.tival - 04.06.08

It's 6th of June.

Happy Birthday my dear Mung Papa!!!

May all your dreams come true... sorry I'm not in Penang again for your birthday but never mind, I just called to wish you right? Miss you!! And again, HAPPY BIRTHDAY~!!!

p/s: Mung papa is not my dad. Just a good friend whom my besties referred him as our papa because he seems like one =)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Finally with my internet line so lag, I successfully uploaded the pictures that I captured in FEStival. Well, won't say I'm a good photographer but hmm, just to let you know more about the whole event.

Basically, this event can be said to be successful. So congratulations to all committee members~!!

But please, please, please, if you all were to organise another FEStival, please don't state that "All societies MUST involve in the fund-raising program". Because all society committees will surely strangle you to death!!! We SHOULD have the right to choose to or not to participate in this event right? You all SHOULDN'T force us to participate! Anyway, it's over and I guess everyone has had their own fun =)

I didn't really follow the entire program flow because I had to "jaga" my society's booth.

Since I'm here, I would like to take this opportunity to promote my society - Traveler's Den.

If you're someone who likes to travel around to experience new things, learn more about the world outside Setapak and make more friends who has this same passion as yours, then you're most welcome to join Traveler's Den. The advantage of becoming a member is, whenever there is a trip going on, you can join at a member rate. Meaning, you'll get a cheaper price compared to non-member =) Visit our booth now in canteen for recruitment. We'll be there until next Wednesday, 11th June 2008.


in front of board

In front of our booth- we were just doing exhibition for recruitment


Alright, back to the main point. This FEStival has attracted students from different campuses like FICT, FAS, FAM. Of course there are booths selling all sorts of food which include Pearl Milk Tea, Ice Kacang, Pancake, Corn, Toast bread, Spaghetti, Domino's Pizza etc... all prepared by students except for Domino's Pizza. And to add one more thing, their talent in cooking is not bad =) Some booths prepared games like UNO stack, car simulator etc. The purpose of selling food and games is to raise fund for their respective societies.

Tysus - helping out in Biological Science booth with pancakes


The usual programs include singing from various "artistes" whom I would not bad. Thumbs up to most of them. They not only sang, but played guitar, keyboard etc. Some "artistes" were our own students but some were guest performers like Feeling Cafe, rock band J4N, Astro Talent Quest Finalist - Vicky etc.


Photobucket

1st from right is my friend Andrew performing =)


chao yen

Leo aka Chao Yen - he can play violin, "er hu", saxophone etc.. my music center founder


Dancing is of course part of the program flow. Haha talking about dancing, I finally realised that the guy who is the same lecture as me is actually a great dancer and he was the lead dancer. Not sure about his name but I know that he changed my point of view towards him. I have always thought that he's the quiet type, those who are "si si man man". But when I saw him dancing, I was like, "Whoa, not bad huh!" We really cannot judge a person by his/her outlook. LOL.

Then the parts which attracted many guys were the various fashion shows by designers like Karl Ng, XEX, Tropicana Life and etc. Hairdo and makeup were made by Miko etc. I would say that the Program Manager for FEStival is very "geng" because he can find sooo many renowned sponsors and designers for this event. Compared to me... I already lost 100% to him. SWT.

Our FES Fashion Night Champion in white evening dress


For the very first time, UTAR's event is sponsored by sponsors like The Star, Digi, Steven's Corner, Tropicana Life, XEX, Karl Ng etc.... Couldn't remember all of them. Hitz.fm cruisers were even invited to come and students grabbed lots of goodies away.


Photobucket

For the very first time I feel that, UTAR's becoming more famous and successful. If you're a UTAR-ian, you'll understand what I'm saying. Not everyone knows about UTAR, but everyone knows about TARC. That's a sad case you know, because UTAR and TARC is just beside each other. Yet, somehow people tend to ignore us though we're actually a university. Some more not those cheap uni k. I wonder why people still don't really know about us. *wondering*

It's not easy to organise such thing actually. You have to be well dedicated like my housemates and those SRC (Student Representative Committee) members. Need lots of time to prepare, find sponsorhip, do publicity, arrange performances and rehearsal for several times. It's really tiring.. and exhausted. But if you're dedicated, you'll enjoy while you're working and will learn many things. I salute them!

Suddenly feel that, I have so much things to learn from them for our upcoming event for freshmen, Welcome Freshmen Concert.

Suddenly, I feel that... we're so far behind. Their event is so grand. Never mind we must be confident!! WFC will be as good as well hehe so please do come and support us at FES Welcome Freshmen Concert on next Friday - 13th June. Thank YOu!!

Alright, now let me tell you what happened in my house during the night before FEStival. Everyone was busy preparing for their booth stuffs. Except Shen Chie, who lacked of sleep for many days due to the workloads of FEStival committee.. she slept very early.

Basically, Shyuan and I were busy decorating our parts for our board. She's in charge of the Perak trip, and I of course was in charge of the 3 Islands trip. We started our work late because initially we were helping out our housemates with their pancakes, we were their guinea pigs=) Or in nicer words, we were the testers for their food. Well, we didn't really help out much though, but played a lot instead haha.

Li Pei and Fern were busy mixing ingredients for their pancakes, trying hard to get the right taste. Tysus came over and helped out. He was actually the main chef of the night and for the next day. A big applause for him!! Imagine, a guy who can't cook anything except for maggi mee can actually do such nice pancakes... it's a wonder!!
p/s: Li Pei and Fern are from Biological Science society.


shyuan playing

Told you she played with it. The base of the pancake looks like a glove huh??



shyuan

1st try - NONO.. lack of some taste..



messy

My house in a state of mess...really messy


Now, it's time for showtime! Those who wish to do simple pancakes, you can have a look how's the procedure looks like. The things that you'll need:

1. Flour
2. Baking powder
3. Eggs
4. Margerin
5. Milk
6. Sugar and salt
7. Vanilla essence
*8. Peanut butter or chocolate spread
* For your preference

I'm sorry that I can't provide you with the exact measurement of the ingredients. They followed the recipe but somehow the taste was not enough. So basically the whole process was of trial and error. Sorry folks!

Below are the procedures:

1. Beat the egg yolks evenly by mixing it with milk.


2. Then mix the flour, baking powder, vanilla essence, with milk and egg yolks.
add egg


3. It's now time for salt and sugar.
cooking


4. After mixing thoroughly, the egg whites are added. If it's not watery enough or too saturated, you can add a little bit of water.


5. Tadaa! The mixture should look something like this.
Photobucket


6. Scoop some of the mixture and spread it evenly on the pancake machine. Then close cover and wait for about 5 minutes.
paste spread


7. Your pancake base should be like this.
Photobucket


8. Spread your favourite jam / peanut butter / chocolate spread / butter on the pancake base.
add butter


9. Roll the base into this long cylindrical shape.
nice


10. Place the completed roll(s) into an oven and toast it for about 5 minutes. The the final outcome of the pancake should look like this!
after toasting


11. Hehe.. then place it nicely on a plate and now your completed pancake is ready to be served!

=================================================

Hehe.. not difficult right? Yea it seems easy but the process of beating and mixing the mixture is tiring. Try it out! Those who have no talent in cooking, if you are thinking of making some kind of food for your bf/ gf/ loved ones.. this should be suitable for you! No harm trying!

Alright, I will end this FEStival thingy here. The next upcoming event in UTAR FES will be Welcome Freshmen Concert. See you guys there soon!

Oh yea just to let all of you know, I'll be off to Genting tomorrow to see The Click Five live in Arena Stars~!!! YAHOOOOO~!!!!!!!!!!!

Cherish them...

Been away for almost a month huh? Very sorry everyone! I didn't online and didn't have the time to blog during my 3 weeks break because my time was packed with trips to Redang Island, Taman Negara (National Park). And I couldn't online when I went back my hometown, my notebook just couldn't detect my home's wireless.

Then when I came back, I'm busy finding my besties and sisters because they just came down to Setapak to continue their Advance Diploma in TARC. I helped them to move in, had dinner and even overnighted at their place. The rest of the time I spent it in classes, meetings, midnight movies in cinemas, watching Hong Kong series and sleeping. So basically, my time's used up :)

I'll blog about my Redang and Taman Negara trip in the next few blog entires alright? Because I'm still waiting for the arrival of photos. How can I blog a trip without interesting photos??

I'm very free today, though I had class this morning and later I will help my classmates to move house. I suddenly thought of my besties (4 of us), my sisters (whom we call ourselves TOU - Ten of Us), my twin, friends and family. I thought of how we were bonded and ended up getting inseparable...

True friendship is the most marvelous and precious gift that we have in our life besides family, isn't it?

I've been hearing about how those s0-called friends in college backstabbed my friends and used them for their own benefits. I personally feel lucky enough because other than the heart-broken incident which happened to me in foundation, those friends that I meet in degree are NORMAL people. At least they are true in friendship and I even have special bond with some of them.

It's true that many people just come and go in your life. Those are merely passer-bys in your life. However, when it comes to true friends, they won't just come and vanish. They may be far apart from you, they may not keep in touch with you always, but their heart will always have a space for you for every second....

Well, below is a true story which happened to my bestie not long ago:

##
One of my bestie, Mei Fern told me about a close friend of hers in college. Let's just call this particular bitch **Steph.

Many people have told my bestie about the bad things about Steph. Her friends, including all my besties have warned her to keep a distance with Steph. Being the soft-hearted one, my friend forgave Steph for her 1st mistake, 2nd mistake, 3rd mistake until the Nth mistake. She always feels that Steph is not that bad as what people said about her in college and she always forgives her.

Until one day, when my bestie finally fall down, only then she realised how stubborn she was all this while to keep walking although she knew that she should stop walking. Although it's not her fault and Steph kept hurting her, my bestie still forgave Steph and tried her very best to save their frienship.

This bitch is truly a bitch. I've never called a person a bitch before, not even that damn person who left me with sad memories 1 year ago. Steph is too good in acting, and that's why my bestie fell into her trap and forgave her sooo many times.

Because my bestie trusted Steph, she told Steph about her point of view towards**Lily. Well, just point of view, no big deal right? I mean, of course we have our own opinions and we are just voicing them out without wanting to create any unwanted arguments or whatsoever.

Of course Fern knew that Steph and Lily are good friends but because she trusted Steph, only she told her about her opinion. I want to emphasize that, the opinion she gave was just what impression she had about Lily. It wasn't meant to hurt Lily or what. Those who know my bestie well will know she meant that. And I'm sure Steph knew very well what my bestie's opinion was all about.

However, for some unknown reason, this bitch turned my friend's words into some other meaning which created misunderstanding between Lily and Mei Fern. Then somehow this bitch backstabbed my bestie in front of Lily. In the end, my friend realised the true face of Steph and gave up this useless, fake friendship between them.

After the incident, between sobs while talking over the phone with my bestie, Steph even claimed that in her life, she only has 2 close friend. One is Lily and the other one is my bestie. Damn her, do you think a CLOSE friend will ever hurt and backstab you? So fake of her! She must be stupid to think that after so many incidents, my friend will still believe that kind of lame statement.

I told my bestie, "What's the use of maintaining the friendship between you two? She's never real, and has been using you for so many times. And this time she even backstabbed you. You've now come to KL and she isn't coming to KL, so why do you need to care about her anymore? You're not going to meet her anymore, then just make a clear statement to yourself and leave this girl behind your memories. This kind of friend is not worth your tears.. because TRUE friend will NEVER backstab and use you. Just treat her as a passer-by in your life, and don't get involve in her things anymore because if you were to be involved, the pain that you will have to endure will be much more... which is not worthwhile, at all."

I don't want my bestie to endure the pain that I've went through. Sometimes, soft-hearted just won't work. Reality is reality and it's always a pain for us to accept reality. I hate those people who hurt my loved ones.. I wanna whack that stupid bitch!!!!
##

People often say that in college and university, it is very hard to find true friends. Hmm... how to say? In uni, I have many hi-bye friends. My coursemates are great people, not to say we are very very close, but still, at least I know my coursemates aren't those sort of people who will hurt the others. I'm glad that I met my twin and 3 of us are best friends =) (me, twin and shyuan)

Through MSN, I've met many more UTAR-ians. I'm glad that many of them have become my good friends who are always there for me to share my joy and sadness together. What I would like to say is, treasure those great friends that you have because in life, you won't meet so many great friends, who are completely true in friendship.

Cherish your friends, and cherish the moments that you spent together. Without them, your life won't be as bright as it is now. I love all of you, my friends~!!!

p/s: Names with ** are not their true names. This is to protect their identity and privacy.

Note: I know I've blogged about how bad I did in Maths finals. I swear I wasn't exaggerating when I was blogging. Anyway, just to inform all of you, I passed my Maths!!! =)

My worst lunch ever

Like my title says, yea I just had an awful lunch - a lunch which was cooked entirely by myself. And that explains why it was soo bad, because I don't really know how to cook. In fact, I hate cooking.

I know you will say, "Then why trouble yourself by cooking when you can just go out and eat like you do everyday?" LOL.. you already said EVERYDAY and that's why I plan to cook because I really have no idea what to eat.

Guess I gave Kuak his worst nightmare of lunch. Being the fastest eater among we friends, he was the slowest today, and was even playing with his food. From his expression I know, he was having a difficult time, swallowing mouthful and mouthful of noodles (not Maggi mee). Although he didn't utter a single word while eating, but I know the food was like shit. (shit at least has some taste but mine???)

There was a moment when I felt like hitting him and say, "Hey you! I took the effort to cook for you and now you're showing me this face!" But I know it wasn't his fault to show this face because I would too if my mom's cooking is this bad. It was my fault to cook this shit out and even dare to invite him to eat. LOL

Now I truly understand my mom's feelings when we complain that her cooking is bad and the food is tasteless. How to say, it's like.. When you cook you think it's nice. But when you eat you will know that it's kanasai. Haih...

But Kuak was being very good and kind enough today. After finishing the whole bowl of noodles, he even flashed me an assuring smile, to assure me that the food was ok. But.. I still feel bad because I know it was really tasteless eventhough he added some soya sauce and pepper. Fern a fern.... I must learn more from you in order to survive next time. Hehe

So do I prefer to eat outside or cook myself? For the time being, it's better that I eat outside haha

super long post

I think I'm a bit insane. And yea, a bit too rich like I have too much to spend. Anyway, it's near to hols so still ok hehe because I can save more when I go back hometown.

2 days ago.....

Spent the whole morning surfing the net. Somehow I didn't have the "ohm" to on msn. Then around noon time I went into my room and Fern was there, pretending to lie on the bed to rest when she's actually lazy to study her Bio haha.

So I said, "Fern, don't kesi kesi lie there.. faster go study if not you will not be in time." She gave me the I'm-not-pretending look. Fine. So we ended up chatting.. yea girls' talk with Shyuan joining us.

Then we decided to have pizza as lunch. Fern again pretended to be hardworking and took a paper of Bio notes to Pizza Hut.

Well, ok "maybe" not pretending since I was the one who advised her to bring her notes along as it would take some time for our pizza to arrive.

But of course, she couldn't concentrate there. Who can? LOL.. We were talking about silly stuffs when she came out with a theorem which she named it as "Fern Fern's Theorem". Well, the story went like this:

Both of us didn't have the "ohm" to bathe that time so we were actually quite dirty at Pizza Hut (but I still smelled nice, fern nope) So to give herself an excuse not to bathe, she said something very lame:

"Luckily we did not bathe. You see, my hair's oily so it's slippery. Therefore it can reflect the sunlight. Then look at my hands which contain dirt and germs that can't be seen. They can protect myself from UV light and prevent me from getting dark. So in conclusion, if you don't feel like bathing, don't bathe."

I was like WTF?? Macam ini mia theorem she also can think of it. Wahlau eh! All of us gave her the =_=''' look, with triple lines. LOL.. really really sweat. Haha so now you know I have this kind of roommate... always need "ohm" to do stuffs =)

* This "ohm" is not the unit for resistance in electronic circuit. It's just an expression that we like to use =)

Then without any planning, Li Pei suddenly said she wanted to watch "The Tattooist".

I was like, "Har, again a? Yesterday night just watched "The Forbidden Kingdom" wor."

But aiya, since I think I won't have the time to watch this movie within these few weeks, I agreed. So there we go, 3 pretty gals including me, Shyuan and Li Pei set off in 3 striking colours - orange, pink and yellow.

Hahaha.. fern cannot go because she has Bio paper tomorrow.. I know she was tempted to go *evil grin* Never mind fern... we will go sing k and bowling with you. You just need to wait for PA to finish.

After movie we had J. Co doughnuts as dinner. Seriously, I was too rich to spend so much within these two days. Never mind.. once in a while hehe.

Alright here's the synopsis for you people if you haven't watched "The Forbidden Kingdom" and "The Tattooist". I love both movies. Cannot say which I prefer more since they're of different genre. "The Forbidden Kingdom" is an action movie while "The Tattooist" is an 18-PL horror movie.


The Forbidden Kingdom:


the forbidden kingdom




An American teenager obsessed with martial arts
cinema,is
magically transported to ancient China
where he meets three Chinese
heroes who help him
on his quest to free the Monkey King.


Taken from www.gsc.com.my

- Really synopsis huh? -


The Tattooist:


the tattooist




At a tattoo expo in Singapore, American tattoo artist
Jake Sawyer (Jason Behr) glimpses the exotic work of
the fiercely proud Alipati (Robbie Magasiva).
Fatefully, Jake is attracted to Alipati's beautiful
cousin, Sina (Mia Blake).

When Jake impulsively steals an ancient Samoan
tattooing tool,he unwittingly unleashes a powerful
angry spirit. Suddenly, his art takes on a frightening
new dimension, exposing everyone he touches,including
the feisty Singaporean Victoria(Caroline Cheong), to
mortal peril.

To recover his own soul and to save the woman he loves,
Jake goes to Auckland,where he runs into an old
adversary,tattoo artist Crash(Michael Hurst) and a new
one, the respected Samoan elder Aleki Va'a(David Fane).

Taken from www.gsc.com.my


I would say that this movie is damn cool with lots of suspense. Some disgusting parts are not censored off.
You can see the man cutting off the tattooed part with a parang.
The blood.. the flesh.... *yier* but cool haha.
So spare some time to watch but bear in mind that "The Tattooist" is 18PL. So those who are under age will need to buy dvd hahaha.

Joshua, don't weep while watching this movie at home alone k? Because you're not watching alone. There's someone watching with you, with a tattooing tool beside you...... *evil grin*

Alright, will stop here. All the best to those who are having PA.

p/s: Those who have the answers to the questions given for PA tips please let Kevin from 3E know.. thanks!

Going crazy soon...

GOD DAMN IT!!! LOL... who should I blame for my failure in Maths? Of course it's none other than MYSELF~! No time to regret anymore... just I don't understand why the questions were not difficult yet I couldn't answer. WHY?!! Lack of practices I guess though I understand each and every formulae. And some more I have Maths phobia. That's true and I had this damn phobia since I failed my 1st add maths paper in F4. I'm seriously terrible in maths. Gotta study harder... DAMN. I've failed Maths coursework mark that's why I'm so worried. Kelvin... we're gonna die in this war together haha... well, let's just study for Circuit Theory now and forget bout this damn whole thing.

I felt bad when I called my mum right after I came out from the exam hall. Normally parents will scold their children for doing bad in exams but my parents are the opposite. From young, they have never given me any pressure in studies. I swear, NEVER. All this while it was ME who gave myself pressure to do things to the most perfect point. It was me who gave myself damn a lot of pressure when it comes to exams. I'm a perfectionist, perhaps haha.

Over the phone she was consoling me, "Why give yourself pressure? No need to cry la.. no more scholarship never mind. You have done your best...." I cried even harder haha because I felt guiltier for not excelling more. Haha I'm a crybaby huh?? I know they don't mind I don't do well in exams but I do mind because I know they have high hopes on me. Maybe because I did ok way back in primary and high shool. Anyway that's history. University is another different story and cannot be compared to those days.

I'm not whining here, just felt that I've paid damn a lot to learn this painful lesson. Seems that dealing with 4 subjects is even harder than dealing with 6 subjects (that was last sem) How come? *wondering* Monday will be the 3rd paper - Circuit Theory. I seriously hope that I can do well in this paper because coursework marks has helped me a lot and I want to take revenge for doing so badly in last semester's Basic Electronics. Those who sat for the paper last semester will know why that paper was hard. Hard in the sense that.. there were lots of stupid theories which we ignore most of the time haha. So advice for all of you, don't ever think that theories are not important for subjects that deal with calculations. Who knows, theories might take up 20 - 30% of 100%.

Anyway wanted to share this fantastic song with you all very long time ago. As you can see in my blog, or for those who are using Firefox Beta Version / IE browser you will know that I'm addicted to this song - Bleeding Love by Leona Lewis. She's a British singer with an amazingly powerful voice and she's hot. I love her songs.. especially this one. She was invited to American Idol 7 to perform this song. And heaven, she was awesome~!! Wahaha.. Baby Ong and I always like to "keep keep bleeding, keep keep bleeding..." away. We're addicted~!!

Below is the video clip which she performed in American Idol 7:



The UK version of Bleeding Love:



The US version of Bleeding Love:



Well some of you might say, "Very good meh?" Haha different people have different point of views so I don't mind. Since I think she's great so I just want to share with you people. =) So which version do you prefer?

Alright till here.. wanna start to revise my circuit d. Add oil everyone~!!!

p/s: Please don't laugh at me when I say "I cried". Just drop tears coz too sad.. emotions are sometimes uncontrollable..

What a day ...

Finished my first paper - Dynamics today. No words to describe how was the paper, well what I can say is I've put my best shot in it and I'm glad I can answer that much. I should feel fortunate because about 2 weeks ago, my knowledge of this subject can be said to be 1% only. Serious, only 1%!!
Why leh? Haha... because I don't like this subject, and the lecture for this subject is scheduled once in a week, 3 hours in one shot. I ask you, can u really concentrate every second of the lecture? Even if you can concentrate, do you think you can absorb that much since this is DYNAMICS with all those complicated concepts, formulaes and calculations? Well, I'm not blaming everything on the lecturer, but I think they should really NOT hire PART-TIMER.... we students suffer not only because of the timing, but also our grades. Haha.. but down to root, I should also blame myself for not taking the initiative to study myself. I can say that in these 14 weeks of lectures, I practically day-dreamed, talked, played and slept through the lectures. I've counted, only 2 lectures that I really concentrated for whole 3 hours. Well, that's really bad right? But, what to do? I'm lazy. So what I can say about this paper is, it's not difficult if you study. Luckily some tutorial questions came out, so thanks to those who gave me the tips =) Anyway.. 3 more subjects to go! The next one - Maths will be on Saturday. Add oil!!!

So UTARians, how are your finals? Hope everything goes fine ya.. hehe everybody jia you~!

Shyuan's hamster - Dua Jiak just died. Not sure what happened but suddenly it was so weak and was leaning on her palms when she took it out. Normally it would be damn active when she take it out.. I'm totally puzzled. 2 nights ago it was still sooo damn active, exercising like hell on the roller. I was still awake that time because I was doing revision and was asking myself, "Why it becomes so active suddenly???" Because it seems that it had not exercise much lately and suddenly it was soo active these few nights. Well Kuak said animals know when they will die, they can foresee their death. Is that true? Is it why it started exercising a lot the last few nights?

Wanted to ask Kuak to fetch us to the vet just now. But we know that vet shops are not opened at night. Before I went for dinner, I looked at it for the last time. It was so weak.. and I was saying to Shyuan, "Do you think it can tahan till tomorrow? Because we can only take it to the vet tomorrow morning..." All of us was worried about it, yet we couldn't do a single thing to help it. It was a pitiful sight to see it sooo weak. I even asked Shyuan to test its hearbeat and we found out that it was slow and weak. At least she was with it for the last moments... at least it didn't die in a bloody sight. When I'm writing this, I'm recalling my Sei Jiak's death 3 months ago (13th of Jan). It was a bloody sight and no one knew for sure what had bitten it or what happened to it. All I know was it was covered with blood when I looked at it in the morning. It must have been a stormy night for it. Sorry Sei Jiak for not being with you for the last moments.. I miss you..

I don't know how to console Shyuan. She should feel sadder than me now because Duak Jiak was with her since her last birthday in August 2007. Actually, I bought Dua Bui and Sei Jiak together. I went all the way to Mid Valley's Pets Wonderland to buy since there're not much choices here in Setapak. Me and my housemates shared this gift together. She chose Dua Bui (she was the birthday gal ma =)) so mine was Sei Jiak. They used to live in the same house - the cage I mean. They used to play together, fight together, eat together, sleep together.... and even bathed together. I miss them.. Miss the roller noise when they were exercising on the roller. There're so much memories... Sei Jiak is my second pet after my puppy - Fifi.... (well, not really mine also actually). Baby ong... I know you will miss them too.. You can pray when you come next time. RIP Dua Bui!

Well... need to do revision now. Back to books~! Take care everyone~!!!!

Think positively!

Just came back from my uni's DSA. The answer that I received from the officer was POSITIVE *high 5* but the answer that I got from my ex lecturers from PJ was NEGATIVE *sigh*.... What to do? I'm totally out of idea now. Which lecturer / tutor / lab assistant or any full time UTAR staff wants to go? PLEASE come and find me....
Haha just received a sweet sms from a friend, so it's a sweet beginning for today. Well, I'll need to believe in myself and think positively. Then things will be better. =)

Went for TT Night (now known as Welcome Freshmen Concert) meeting and photo taking yesterday. Realised that Programme Manager is not an easy post at all. *sigh again* LOL who chose me for that post? Wakaka well not grumbling, just that I'm lack of confidence because I think I didn't do well in my society trip. PRESSURE~!!!!! This Sunday need to hand in a drafted proposal for my department. Next Monday going to PJ for TT Night meeting with other committees from other faculties and the officers in-charge. Wednesday has a brief meeting with our own committee. Lalala....... study week, oh my study week, I really need to utilize my time well~!!!! Sherril Leow... no more dilly-dally here and there~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
