Number1

Didn't expect our performance got number 1 for the Christmas Eve Celebration.

Got a stack of vouchers for that. =D

Christmas Eve

Feel like crap these days.

My fault probably, no point frustrated over things I have no say over. I really thought my tolerating skills are good. Reality can't wait to prove me wrong.

Dengan ini, aku di sini sedang mengalami sesuatu situasi yang amat men-frustrating-kan.

但是，我能怎样？

Giving the following scenario, I have to surrender.

我以为可以逃脱我在马来西亚的现实。

Tetapi, realiti ini memang tidak dapat dilarikan. Apa yang patut datang akan datang jua.

I had been complaining about the same thing.

人事真的在世界上是最难处理的问题。

Aku dah benci perkataan "Kami" yang telah keterlaluan.

Whatever it is, it will start with that word.

问题就在这里，“我们”没有你。

Kami betul, kau salah. Tak kira apa yang telah berlaku.

Issues regarding my attire to "work".

我的运动棉裤似乎冒犯了他的专业工作场所。

Rambut aku pun telah bersalah, aduhai!

I have no more comments over this.

Cold

And so, it had finally begun.

Negative temperature finally conquered Korea.

I went to Seoul for six days since last Thursday and I think the Seoul weather literary hates me because the day right after I tell everyone that Seoul wasn't as cold as I thought it was and the temperature dropped below 5 degree Celsius.

The morning right after I went back to Busan, it snowed.

FML.

No Hot Water

There is no hot water supply in the dormitory due to the condition of the heating system.

How to survive?!

Winter - Hot water = Die

Life is like a SHIT

I hate the feeling of being helpless.

In this, I am absolutely sure that I am in this situation in and out for a year already. What makes it worse is that it is not going to end just yet. The whole fact that the time, the people and the place are not in favor with me in this stupid year frustrates me.

And there will be more.

I'm very worried now. But the thing is that I cannot do anything about it. I'm 6 hours flight away from home (I'm not bothered to convert that into mileage), now there's problem at home. Not one, but three. What can I do now? The time when my family needed me the most, I am away from home. This time is not just away, but very far away from home.

I want to go home.

Despite the fact that I might not be the most family-orientated ones you might came across in your life because I complaint about my family like in daily basis, but I want to go back home now. I just feel like being with them now, at least.

Share the hard time together, as a family.

I know we will go through this, but the whole issue that involves me being in the foreign country, still using money from home, giving burden to the family does not makes me feel any better. In fact, I am feeling damn guilty right now.

Two hundred and fifty thousand won is enough to live at Korea, since food and accommodation is provided to us. There is no reason for me to overspent it and still using the money back at home.

However, I still insisted to travel.

For that, I feel damn guilty. So guilty that I don't know what to do anymore. I might be acting really selfish right now, and I really does not enjoy the fact that I am not only not helping but increasing the burden of the family.

Recently, I realize that I got this "do-not-know-what-to-do-anymore" scenario more than ever, is like I'm getting stupider as I grow up. Or getting much more inflexible around people.

It is really frustrating.

Just came to knowing my grandfather was confirmed that he can only live for one more year due to liver cancer and for that itself I think I am going to break down. Because just only last 6 months ago, my grandmother is getting ill and the situation is not going help in anyway when my mum told me that my dad's business is at stake right now.

I want to go home now. Very badly.

Oh yes, life is like a shit. I insist.

And you know what? I don't know what to do anymore.

我们

来到韩国以后，发现到我的思想还有很多空间。

看到的人事物，都一直在证明我的思路有问题。

是时候长大了，已经十九岁幼稚姓李的这一位。

开始对“我们”这个字汇有所厌恶。

只因为那个“我们”，只是“我们”，没有“你”。

只因为那个“我们”，不包括“你”。

只因为那个“我们”。

我们国家的人。我们自己的人。

我们，我们，我们。

在异国做交换学生，学的东西还真多。

看的东西嘛，只会告诉你，世界真奇妙。

不怪得世界的关系很僵。

That Autumn

That day was surprisingly windy.

That other day, it snowed.

Sigh

I am here for 2 months already.

When you are alone in a foreign land, and officially become something out of the norm in the particular society, things will never be the same. Being different is one thing, accommodating is another thing. I once thought I can, apparently I was wrong. I thought I will escape from what I faced in my familiar ground, and apparently I was wrong, again.

I have a set of problems.

I have a problem when it involves a conversation with people that talk without using his or her brain. I have a problem with people who like to impress others but make themselves sound even dumber. I have a problem with dramas portrayed by people which clearly showed the insincerity quite obviously. I have a problem with people who do not treat you as who you are, who do not care, who do not bother in any aspect anyway. I have a problem with people that are just way too ignorant to accept the fact that they are wrong.

I am exhausted.

True, this is the reality. I said "Hi" to reality quite a number of times already. In fact, I tried and it seems that the courage of me embracing this ugly truth will turned invalid over and over again. I am constantly been reminded, over and over again. I told myself not to care. I told myself not to bother, to not beat the crowd and join them. I failed, and I lost count of it already.

I took a deep breath.

And tell myself that it will be better. To lie to myself like this is the best way to prevent myself to behave like one of them at the end of the day. I hate my situation now, I hate how the reality functions. I know couldn't do anything about it, thus I just need some space to rant for a little while.

Then, I will take a deep breath again.

And tell myself:

"Here we go again."

明白

在这里，
没有人能明白我。

The Wait

我永远都不知道，我已经错过了多少个青灯了。
我也不想知道了。
I will never know how many greens I missed.
I don't want to know it anymore.

Korean Culture Shock #1

Your Multi-Purpose Student ID

Apparently my student ID can be use as a transportation card in Korea, something like Touch and Go. But instead of surcharge, you actually get discount from using the card.

The card is used to enter some classrooms too.

I'm speechless.

Where are you?

当我在这里的时候，亲爱的你在哪里呢？

Nature

大自然之所以大，只因为你的渺小。

Welcome to Korea

"Welcome to Korea", it says.
"Way too well to come", I say.

Sun Rise

那一天，我在海拔十五千公里的高空，看到了日出。

休止符

休止符，

就是要等到
好久好久好久的以后。

我怀疑，

我能否等到
好久好久好久的以后。

属于我的休止符，
在那时候又会是什么样子呢？

Okay

I wish, I wish, I wish...
Everything is going to be
Okay, okay, okay...

Everything will be fine,
everything will fall into place.

Eventually.

Hopefully.

I wish, I wish and I wish again...
Everything is going to be
Okay, okay, okay...

Chinese

那天晚上，我觉得我唐化了。
That night, I feel a little more Chinese.

早晨，雨天，麦当劳

早晨的七点三十分，
天空开始下着雨。
虽然我还在床上，
但是雨滴拍打的声音，
彻彻底底地把我打醒了。

早晨的八点三十分，
天空还是下着雨。
虽然我还在路上，
但是冷风吹着我的脸，
完完全全地把我吹醒了。

早晨的九点三十分，
天空应该下着雨，
虽然我已经吃饱，
但是香味攻着我的鼻，
彻彻底底地把我弄醒了。

早晨的十点三十分，
天空没有下着雨，
虽然我早已回家，
但是我喜欢的那场雨，
完完全全地把我忘记了。

Good Bye

Left to Right: Stephanie, Me, Adrian, Esther, Hui Ning, Wern Pheng

脱节的雨后

九点三十分的晚上被雨洗过了。

十五区还是如此的多车，多人，多烦恼。

忽然间没有人陪的感觉怪怪的，

好像失去了一部分的自己。

脱节了，我想我脱节了。

与世界的脚步慢慢的脱节了。

Tong - Thriller

Walking

I walked to KLCC today.

All the way from PTPTN head office, Damansara Heights to KLCC. Took me an hour and a half, stopped by a lot of places that I never knew.

It was far, I know.

But it certainly treats the emotions really well. Of course the smoke from the exhaust pipes from all the cars on the Jalan Duta, Lebuhraya Mahaveru and Jalan P. Ramlee didn't help though.

Got myself a VERY large map of Korea at Menara Hap Seng @ The Podium, it is certainly going to help my trip at Korea for the entire year.

I never knew there was a forest under KL Tower. =)

Running Nose

病了.

鼻子跑了.

一直用纸巾抓.

却只抓到它的痕迹.

过后的日子 (二)

那一天, Kuala Lumpur异常般地,

下起了好久好久的雨.

好久好久... 的雨.

天空灰灰的.

路上湿湿的.

至少心情还是晴朗的.

雨过了就应该天晴了吧!

即使我也知道等不到彩虹.

既然彩虹是虚幻的,

我还再追逐些什么东西呢?

放晴吧!

我的天空,

是时候放晴了吧!

在蔚蓝的天空下,

在过后的日子里,

我一定会微笑的.

过后的日子 (一)

我的记忆很不好,

不好的程度实在是令人感动.

"是时候要把 Hard Disk 的容量加大了."

我常常笑着说.

事实上, 如果真的可以的话,

我真的会考虑升级.

十九岁后的三个月,

我发现到我最害怕的是遗忘的感觉.

不管是我遗忘,

还是被遗忘.

"你把朋友看的太重了."

ESTHER半夜十二点三十五分,

一个失眠的晚上在电话里这样对我说的.

"我知道, 但是这已经是一种习惯,改不了."

我打了个哈欠, 发了第一封警告信给她.

"我很怕一个人在韩国的那一年." 我告诉她.

"放弃了这一个机会, 你应该会遗憾终生吧!"

"需不需要搞到遗憾终生哦?"

她听了应该是笑着.

我不是很清楚,

因为我只听见她隔着电话的鼻息.

那一天,

我一个人坐在Sunway Pyramid的大门口.

突然间觉得,

自己连在朋友的Priority List的份都没有.

因为, 我只是在时间的过程中,

扮演着路边停滞不前的人.

留恋着过去的一切.

好喜欢走路的感觉.

随着自己的步伐, 走吧!

曾经在意在过后的日子里,

谁会陪着我一直走下去呢?

但是, 曾经到底还是曾经.

过去的就让它潇潇洒洒的过去吧!

或许,

在过后的日子里,

我会在路上遇见一张熟悉的脸庞.

我一定要挥挥手,

问道, "How are you? 今天的你."

Toilet Renovation

I got a shock of my life when I got back home because my house is covered with plastics. Everything is covered with plastic from the front to the back.

Just because of toilet renovation.

Happy Birthday Sin Yee

Transformer 2

I can summarize the movie in a sentence.

Good guy fight bad guy, bad guy kills good guy, main character helps good guy, good guy revive and good guy kills bad guy.

=)

Nice animation graphics though.

온라인

It means "online" in Korean language, Hangul.

Blogging with a Korean PC at Ku's house is very hard.

Overnight at Jane's place, presentation tomorrow.

LOL.

Anyway, I am going to Korea on September for a year.

If it matters to you.

结束了

终于... 结. 束. 了.

我很高兴, 因为句点已经画上.

不管它的样子究竟圆不圆, 它还是一个句号.

我们总该为它的过程而鼓鼓掌.

不管那句号有多难画, 它还是我们大家的句号.

我们最少也应该尊敬它曾经存在过的意义.

我明白了, 我终于明白那天她问我的问题.

"为什么要做又要埋怨?"

对, 为什么已经在同一条船上了, 还要往船身扎洞?

为什么就不可以好好的配合, 让我们一起上岸呢?

路是你选的, 你知道什么对你最好.

你知道你的责任, 你知道它的重要性.

同样的, 现在让你选: 你要做吗?

就如此简单.

要做就不埋怨.

Malaysian Studies Finals

I don't mean to brag.

But, this is the 1st time I enter the exam hall without even knowing anything about that subject. Nothing rings a bell in head head except Francis Light.

Brilliant.

I should be panicking right now.

Durian Puff

Durian Puff is AWESOME!

And it's only RM2.80 for 4! Chilled in the fridge and the texture is amazing. The durian smell so nice and tasted sweet. Exact taste of durian that I loved. Farhah loved it too. =)

Ku didn't like it though. =(

Thank you William for introducing this amazing food at Petaling Street.

I will buy somemore maybe on this Saturday and then will post some photos when I do.

I should sleep now

I had been sleeping late recently.

=(

Anyway, I had finished my public presentation and accounting progress test today.

Both went really well today, I have no idea why.

The public speaking I was really doing it not naturally, even I myself didn't like it. But the lecturer liked mine best. What the hell? Never mind lah. She said something like element of surprise in the introduction. Despite all the nice things that she said, I personally think I'll do not so well in this subject this semester.

It is really obvious that Farhah and Elaine is very upset about what our lecturer had commented about their presentation. What's done is done, what to do? I'm actually surprised that she commented negatively only on Farhah's group, wherelse some other groups also did not be specific enough on the topics too.

Farhah got so excited after she got her accounting annual report asignment back. 91/100 weih. Damn high loh. My assignment actually got 81/100 only. Oh well, that's like a 16.2/20 for my finals, enough, I guess. But I couldn't really guarentee that percentage will be enough for the others groupmates. The annual report assignment is being penalised because of the referencing and the appendix, guess who is the one suppose to do those?

Whatever it is, the accounting progress test was okay. I got it all balanced, I just reimbursed the petty cash which is not required in the questions and Mr. Peter refused to say it's acceptable. =(

Okay then, I should go sleep now.

Really.

The 2nd Interview

I had my second interview just now.

There's four of us. 2 guys, 2 girls. 21 years old, 20 years old, 19 years old and 17 years old. Yes, the 19 one is me. Well, the two girls, namely Diana went in for 30 minutes, and Melissa went in for like 20 minutes. I went in for 10 minutes only!! I was interviewed by a professor, Professor Kang. Along with Miss Sophia at the meeting room NW-2. Reached that place damn early at 1.45pm and the interview only started at 2.45pm.

Crap.

Oh ya, the other guy which I forgot his name (Sorry about that.), is actually Sue May's cousin. Talk about small world. Talk about this tiny world!

Anyway, I don't know how I did lah. Didn't say much, forgot to say I went to military services.

Ku (My Korean classmate) came over and "visited" me. He talked to Professor Kang in Korean saying:" Have a good interview with my friend." So, if I really got selected to go, I think partially is because of him. And he skipped the class with me. LOL.

If he is picking one guy one girl, I'm confident. If he is picking three students, I'm confident. If he is only choosing two, I'm not. But don't want to say anything first lah, chance this kind of thing is really random at times.

What I can do now is cross all my fingers and hope for the best.

I have no idea how many times I had said that already.

Oh well...

The Month of June

I certainly hope this month will be a month for me to remember forever.

Despite being the oh-so-busy month, I applied for a Silla University, South Korea student exchange program. What makes it much much much more interesting is that it is all expenses paid for a year. So, I applied, with Esther and Grace too.

We all been called back for the first interview.

I got called back for the second interview.

On Monday.

I am really worried about how this would actually affect Esther. Being such competitive person, this might not be helping her in any form. It's like labeling her under the not-good-enough category. She knows it doesn't mean so. Just that, according to her, not being selected is far worse than got selected but didn't want to go.

I had a busy month ahead. Marketing plans, final presentation for public speaking, accounting progress test, yadaa yadaa... Will blog soon if it's certain that I got selected for Korea.

Wish me luck.

I Can't Breath Right Now

I wonder whether it's the oxygen level in the room dropping or maybe some people that is existing in the world that is using up wasting all the oxygen.

I don't know anymore.

I don't want to know anymore.

I couldn't stand and tolerate people that well, not anymore. Used to be, but not anymore. Tired of all the drama, tired of all the excuses, tired of all the boosting, tired of all the masking and acting. I'm sick and tired of being this sick and tired too.

Esther didn't said it wrongly at any point, she does grow up and mature faster than me, she will have that phase before I will have to face mine with a gap of a year to 2 years. I still remember how I adviced her on personal relationships and the socializing techniques, but now she is the one listening me ranting to the same problem that she faced one year ago.

"You don't have to label all the relationships you have in your life, you know?" she said.

It's true, I know it's true.

That's it, I don't think my internship in an event company will be any of the pleasent memories I will obtain by next year. 

Maybe I started of with a wrong foot. 

Mid Term Break is Over

My mid term break is officially over.

It only seemed like 3 days long, a weekend long.
Have a list of task piling up right behind.

Tomorrow is hello script writing.
The day after tomorrow is marketing mid term exam and an interview with the internship company.
The day after the day after tomorrow is decoration time!

So hello again, reality.

-TBC-

Hello Reality

Hello hello to the reality, I'm back and have to face you again. Despite how much I hated you, but I have no choice but to embrace you.

Nothing is right at the moment.

Travelling to Phuket with email checking all the time to follow up. That's reponsibility, I'm not complaining. 

It's just that reality sucks.

A lot.

Quick Packing Technique

I found out I got this special skill today.

I am going to travel to Thailand today and I packed my stuff in 30 minutes. That is like 5 minutes of bag packing, 10 minutes of passport searching, 5 minutes of personal care products packing, 5 minutes of songs transfer and 5 minutes of bag relocation.

I didn't know I can be so effective. Lol.

Will be back on Sunday.

I <3>

My Mother's Day with The Man

It supposed to be a celebration for my mother.

I think I ruined it, big time. I can't communicate with my father. Because to him, he is always right and if he is wrong he is way too old to change.

WTF.

That's the only three words I can think of right now. We had a dinner at SS15 steamboat there, the favourite hang out spot of Esther. For the 1st time in my entire life, my dad made me cry in public.

This is how you descirbe my dad in three simple words. Self-Centered Egoistic Bastard. 

You know I don't usually use words that harsh on anyone. He had broke the record. A round applause please people. He cannot jealous over why all of his children communicate well with my mother. Because he just do not know how to listen.

Major communication breakdown factor number 1. For a dad that is living in the world for almost half of his life, I have no idea why he couldn't listen to people. If he ever accept the fact that he do not accept other peoples' opinions, is also not his fault, he is too old to change this habit of his. 

I know he loves us. I really do. I know he care about us. I know he do. But he sucks for not being communicatable and not being an understanding father. 

He is very old school. Too old school that I cannot stand anymore. He is the man that cannot tolerate male for wearing pink clothes, the man that have to be right all the time, the man that work so hard, feed the children and then will wait for the children to get married and have grandchildren for him to entertained with. 

The man that won't listen.

I'd gone completely fed up with this already.

All the children in this family have no problem communicating with my mum, for that I truly respect my mum. It is always my fault that I cannot accept how he is. 

This is not the 1st time, it is not the third time. It's the 5th time. Everytime I would like to try to let him know what I think about him, what I hope he do better and how I respect him for being so dedicated. It will ended up talking about his parents and being my fault on whatever point I gave.

He might not aware of the advancement of time. How people teach children last time cannot apply in the 21th centuries anymore.

You know the feeling that despite the fact that you are living in the same house, under the same roof but you feel like you only rent the room? That's exactly how I feel.

Frustrating, but I don't think I am going to try anymore.

Sorry dad, I love you. But you suck.

*Frankie J - Don't wanna try*

Money

My life is constantly reminding me about the money matters.

This sucks.

Being in the event major, we are always facing the budget problem. It is always the case. We can do the event very perfectly, it's just that we do not have the money. Especially when the economic strikes us at the back of your head and you went blank and you do not know what to do anymore.

I want money.

The Japanese Mug

Customized a mug for my Japanese Teacher whose birthday is today, cost RM38 at Personalized It! located at Sunway Pyramid LG1 near the shop Solid Blue Jeans, opposite The Tie Shop and The Under Shop.

The design is done by me adapting Sakura (Cherry Blossom) as a background gradient off to white and pink as a main colour to go with the white to give the mug a very sweet and lovely look. Partially taken from Google. The Japanese words at the bottom part meant "Happy Birthday."

P/S: The teacher is the one with the tougue out. =)

Useless

I hate being labeled as useless, neither intended nor accidental.

My parents are particularly good in this, and of course I cannot tolerate this. They tend to think you are incapable to do anything and they will refer other people and supposedly "assist" you in anyway. It sounded good, right? The problem is, your effort are almost equal to zero. Whatever you do is literally labeled as rubbish and they will never believe you for all the information you provided all the way.

You are a human that require "special needs".

Maybe it's ego. If it is, I think I found some principle that I would never let other people to come in destroy my day and leave. I'm going to make sure I am useful, one way or another.

I know this sounded so weird.

Being the eldest child in the family always is the most painful past experiences. To add salt into the wound, whatever you do was never good enough. (I'm really nice not setting a par that is too high for both of my younger sisters. =) ) That I actually didn't mind.

Don't make me feel like I'm incapable to even handle my own life.

Though I need to admit that I could not drive properly and caused a dent at my mum's car during a fail attempt of parking at Sunway Pyramid. But other than that, I believe I didn't let my parents dissapointed before. Also exclude the time that I didn't do homework and my mum was called to the school to "talk" about my problem then clear the confusion that a person that didn't do homework getting number one in the class. (No, I didn't cheat in my test, the smart ones just moved forward after PTS.)

I know what I am doing, I really do.

You don't have to worry.

Suicidal Moment - Esther

鱼在水里哭 - 深白色2人组

常常听见她总是抱怨着这种无言的痛处.
这种忽然的无助感.
这种痛, 想必是最痛的吧!

我,
想起了这首歌.

鱼在水里哭
我握着你的手说
鱼在水里哭
你笑着说别傻了
鱼并不会哭
它们是一种没有眼泪的动物
树在雨里哭
我抬头看着你说
树在雨里哭
你温柔看着我说
树并不会哭
它们是没有思想情感的植物
我突然的无助
没有眼泪的悲伤没有人清楚
只能呼吸着不被了解的孤独
一个人仅仅祈祷一切会结束
我矛盾着无助
很需要你能给我一点点保护
想对你说的话却总说不出
我变成了植物
没有人在哭
你摸着我的头说
没有人在哭
我在哭只是没有人在乎

Genting Trip

I was back in Genting yesterday.

A trip to Genting to see our little friend, Kiat Ming who is studying at Genting Inti that is located at the city right below Genting Highland, Gohtong Jaya. It's been a long while apparently, the time didn't even slow down or what so ever and left us missing everyone that moved on. Her birthday is coming soon, Esther wanted to see her, bad enough to dragged me up to Genting Highland with her, and of course, her boyfriend too. Their birthdays are 2 days apart, it's going to cause a dramatic effect on my wallet, I suppose you can see my wallet rip apart and gone with the wind.

Oh well, they are both important to me, as friends and the memories they gave me during my high school years.

Kiat Ming is from a small city in Johor. I'm not sure how to spell it exactly, but I remember it means "handsome" in Hokkien. That I can recall very cleary, because she was very proud about that fact and she had been literarily spamming me about that. Simple and easy going girl in the big big city here in Kuala Lumpur satelite city, Subang Jaya. Esther is her bestest friend when they are both in the same class, while I'm at the next class. Occassionaly we will combine class during Moral Studies, then we will engage in a totally random conversation with no particular reasons. Kiat Ming ate in my house sometimes, with her housemate, Yi Wen that time. When you are leaving alone, cooking is always a hassel, and my mum cooks, so... yeah.

We stayed back in Subang Jaya when we moved on to college, Kiat Ming went Genting Inti, taking the Hospitality Course. It's been a year since we last seen her, due to the fact I went to National Service, and then she went to National Service right after me, it's been a really long while.

A very long while.

It is weird when Genting do not make me anticipate and excited about it anymore, it's like a melted chocolate on the floor, it's still chocolate but ultimately it's not really there anymore. So technically, I went to Genting to see an old friend and blow some cold wind. That day were not that sunny, yet it were not that cloudy either. The thing that I was glad about is the wind. At least I did not went up there to bath in the sunshine.

I was tired the whole time. I do not have an idea on what is going on with me, but I was tired all right. We drove to the Genting Skyway and sat the cable car up to the Genting Highland, I checked with Kiat Ming that day, if sit KTM from Subang Jaya Station to KL central, change to the Genting Bus, then sit cable car to Genting Highland cost around RM 10.40 per single trip. It is highly possible when I got fed up and suddenly appear at Genting Highland and appear back in Subang Jaya at night.

It's almost like magic. =)

Ate at a restuarant for it's cheap lunch set, but my sweet and sour chicken rice did not taste anything near sweet nor sour, it was flat. I would not want to complain anymore about that, got a tendency to get a very predetermined answer:" It's Genting mah!"

I did not want to get on any single ride, due to the fact that the price are just ridiculuos. RM 8 - 12 for a ride? No thanks. Went to the arcade to find the Para Para Paradise machine - Nope, not there anymore. Alternative? A spoilt Virtual Cop 3 machine and some unadjusted aiming for Ghost Squad. Screw Genting Highland, I shall just sit at the side and let the cold wind blow, best still, it's freeeeeeeee.

Around noon, we met up with Kiat Ming and threw her Charlie, the teddy bear we bought for her, which is almost equal her size. Kiat Ming gave Esther her birthday present too, some smaller PINK teddy bear which Esther then named it as "Fen Fen" (Powdery). I shall "lol" at the name for at least a month. We went to bowling and I broke my nail, all Esther's fasult, she forced me to play. =(

Kiat Ming didn't stay long, she is a busy girl now. Studying in Hospitality Course means new friends, lots of them. She joined her classmates at Genting Highland for a buffet dinner paid by their lecturer. Who would have miss that, right? I was waiting outside for Esther and her man outside somesort of rare species animal exhibition while they went inside for RM7 each.

I didn't want to go in.

Then, we went back down and ended up eating in Bentong at Bukit Tinggi. The food was okay and it was cheap, but what I learned was 椰花酒, direct translation will be coconut flower alcohol. I didn't like it, maybe it is because I didn't like alcohol in general, and Esther didn't like it too, too gasy apparently. The drink is unique, as it smells bad, but taste surprisingly much better than the scent. The alcohol content is not more than 3%, said the wise one. It looks almost like isotonic drinks, smell like rotten coconut, taste like cocktail. Stunningly amazing.

I reached home an hour and a half later, with some unhappy event.

I am puzzled over the facts of relationships.

Always.

The LOL Moment

Don't make me kiss you - Farhah

想太多

我常常会寂寞.

但是每一次在这种情况下, 我想东西的频率马上超速.

可能比Ferrari还要快. 又多.

我不知道这应该是好事还是坏事.

因为, 我可以很光荣地说:

"我用很多层面看事情."

又下雨了.

好想唱独南拳妈妈的"下雨天".

我发现我最近很忧郁, 虽然即兴唱歌的症状没有改善过.

可以很平常地继续生活, 纵使我是在伤心着.

感觉自己好像小丑.

好累噢.

但是what can I do?

又想唱歌了, "还是会寂寞..."

-待续-

怎么了

她脸上的笑容渐渐地消失了.

我肯定有事情发生了.

不管是什么事都好.

一定离不开爱情, 亲情, 或友情.

她不快乐的时候, 我非常担心.

她虽然是个独立坚强的女生, 但是情感方面却不那么强.

我实在是担心她.

或许... 是我做错了什么.

又或许... 最近几年下来她真的也累了吧!

"嘿, 怎么了?" 我都在问着她.

但是, 我知道我从来都没有得到我要的答案.

"我知道, 但是..." 她总是这样地回我.

我尽量在我的能力范围内让她快乐.

至少, 我会在那里.

陪着她.

最近放假了, 所以常常没有在家里.

因为我都出去了.

跟她出去了.

也不知道要如何能让她快乐.

纯粹, 尽身为朋友的责任.

因为, 她总是让我担心着.

"我做人的原则是: 对自己好一点." 我看着她, 想知道她的原则是什么.

她不清楚.

在她清楚之前, 就让我对她好一点吧.

不, 可能这已经变成一种习惯了.

她可以习惯等待.

我想我习惯担心了.

Missing Max

Maybe I'm sentimental, I don't know.

The process of moving on has a significant side effect on myself, the hollowness. "It's a phase, Jun Haw." Esther had been telling me that like hundreds of times already. Of course, it's a phase, now what?

I miss people that made my life interesting, made it different, made it who I am today.

I miss Max, which is what I'd been calling him for years already. No, he is not gone. He just gone to Singapore. He is the one that exposed me to the Adobe Photoshop program and because of him, I got almost full marks for all of the event graphic design projects. And he is the reason, I got into the design department for the event project. And he is going to be the reason I ended up in the creative field. The time where he was sitting in front of the computer, in a pro shop in Lake View Club where we both were working part time there, he will be like: "Want to learn how to do this?" I will be running to the computer by then. The steps are fuzzy, the memories aren't. Max is 9 years older than me if I still remember it clearly, it feels real good when he's around, as I never had an elder brother before. Able to learn and depend on someone is something I never got a chance to experience it before.

I remember the day when he needs to get something somewhere and he had only a manual car to use which he not used to it. The ride was bumpy, but it was different that any other ride with parents. I remember the day when his girlfriend argued with him in a car, he turned around and said:"Jun Haw, you want my laptop? It is yours now." after her girlfriend shut his phone, he wanted to jump off the car apparently, I nodded my head, real hard as his laptop is a Mac. (Couldn't resist it. =] ) I remember the day when he will be teasing me, but I was happy, because everything was simple back then. Until he went to Singapore and work. He seldom comes online, he might don't even care then, but he is part of my life. Oh ya, did I mention he teaches me Squash too?

I miss him.

The Wait is Over!

I finally finished my finals.

And watched 3 different movies every single day during the exam.

I shall review them later.

I got 2 and a half weeks of holiday, I'm gonna make sure here is going to shower with fireworks.

Anticipation is painful.

=)

地图里的病毒

我从来没有失去方向过, 直到现在.

地图对我来说, 是个很重要的文件.

没有它会让我猛然地失去安全感.

我的未来却没有地图, 没有方向, 也没有所谓的安全感.

现实的世界是残酷的.

这句话听都听得厌了. 我不想重复, 但我不愿接受.

我可以很简单, 可是在世界的摧残下, 我是不得已的.

我很累, 真的很累了.

朋友们全都要读书, 我被隔绝在外.

纵使我只是要借个文件, 或借Printer来用, 我还是个"Distraction".

我需要马上被quarantine起来.

因为我会让中央处理器慢下来, 甚至于停滞不前.

我在朋友们美丽的未来地图中, 永远是个病毒.

永远是那个污点.

是一个叫"Distraction"的Trojan Virus.

Virus没有未来的, 因为他的目的就是要你和他一起停滞.

虽然它也没有这个意思.

"只要我踏出房门, 就很难进回去读书了." 她不耐烦地说.

"我这样子读不到书啦, 你在那里." 另一位朋友是这样对我说的.

在考试面前,谁才是朋友?

我向往的东西看来也面目全非了.

我社会面前, 谁去谁会留?

我期盼的朋友看来也会继续走下去.

那一天, 我望着冷冰冰的电话和电脑.

我没有读书.

Relieved

The feeling when you finished all your assignments are so good.

Completed and handed in. Applied for the exemption of Bahasa Kebangsaan too.

At least I can breath a little while before final exam on Monday.

LOL.

I shall go and study.

Japanese exam next week too.

Logo Design

Design for Esther's assignment.Rather simple due to the time constraint.

The symbol is a combination of "i" and "y", for the I-Yedo of course.
Look like a person raising two hands to signify people's need can be satisfied by the company.


I like it.

=)

That Moment

I miss those times.
78 PJ Silverhawk Campfire Dinner 2008
Tong, Esther, Me, Ye Heng

Did You Cut My Cable?

I have no idea what happened lately, it seemed like my internet connection had screwed up, badly.

And of course, if it was only me I wouldn't even have to announce it.

Stephanie and Adrian suffered from it too. What the hell happened?

The time where we have to do assignment and I cannot surf the internet properly. Loading any website takes ages to complete. Goodness Gracious.

Frustrated.

Aih. =(

习惯等待

好久好久已经没有让自己呼吸一下了.

就让自己暂时不管任何东西,就让自己暂时做回我自己.

好累, 怎么会把自己搞成这样呢?

我... 不知道.

坐在她房间里, 忽然的伤感侵略着我的情感.

我没有特地去阻止它, 就让我伤心吧!

她实在是不会安慰人, 我们都知道.

来来去去用的词汇应该不回超过三个咧.

没有关系.

其实, 安慰是虚荣的.

我要的只是你的存在, 只要你坐在那边, 就已经非常足够了.

她放她妈妈的飞机, 我还真不好意思呢.

把她抓去吃火锅, 我还真的不好意思.

但是, 身边有她的感觉, 除了她, 应该没有人给了了吧!

喜欢她单纯的笑容, 喜欢她坚定的眼神.

喜欢在失落的时候, 她就一直在那边.

"为什么要搞到自己这样?" 我禁不住问她.

"怎样?" 她坐在床上, 看着我.

"你不觉得, 你在浪费你的十八, 十九岁吗?"

"会吗? 可能每个人有不一样的需要吧!"

"需要? 难道你不能为你自己活一下吗?"

那一天, 天空下着雨.

我不冷, 我真的不冷.

只是,有一点累而已.

"你快乐吗?"

"...也许我已经习惯等待了吧!"

Learning Outcome of Langkawi Tour

This tour truly allows me to experience the planning of a tour for the first time. Having the opportunity to work with my classmates and make a tour come true. Selecting Langkawi is a very brilliant choice and a very interesting destination, traveling a long distance open us to the risk of facing more and more problems.

Leaving from school at 9.00pm might not be a really good idea due to the fact that we ended at the jetty wasting 4 hours to wait for the 8.00am ferry to transfer to the Langkawi main island. Sitting at the jetty waiting for the ferry is a really bad idea; we were literally feeding the mosquitoes there. Especially when the coach driver refuses to on the engine for us to hide inside the air conditioned coach. Those 4 hours were terribly awful. That is when I really learn about time management. Bad time management time lead to unsatisfied customers and that is when the customer complains.

I also learn that responsibility management is crucial in the planning of the tour. When the planning process fails, the organizers will suffer, real bad. Having an disorganized organization made all the managers have a really hectic time, due to the fact that we were the only doing the work and the others simply just ‘enjoy the trip’. This case is obviously unfair, but what can I say, ultimately, finishing the practical test all the way to Langkawi is the greatest compensation to us. Not forgetting noting to self that, the more you care, the more you suffer; make sure I, myself, manage the task wisely and fairer.

During the planning of the incentive tour, of course, needless to say, we will face bunch of problems, solving problems that might not be of our cause, but it’s our responsibility. We chose to go on the 1^st weekend of the February, the school refused. Our lecturer implied that the school was not being able to produce the check in time to clear the payment for the tour operator, but we will never know the real factor at the end of the day. We were forced to change the date, pushing the date one week later that the original start date. We could not complain, we simply are merely students at the moment. The only choice is to tolerate the hectic all of the projects that are scheduled at the end of the February. Pushing stress into the maximum, pushing people to their respective limit.

I hate to admit the case that I am all so mad at the planning phase, so frustrated during the execution phase. I’m just tired, I guess. I’m just very tired. But when it comes to facing the customers, I have to temporarily remove that self just for a little while, be all fun and happy for another little while. Is like exposing yourself to the reality. This kind of experiences was painful, but, I really did learn something out of it.

P/S: This is the excerpt from our original on tour report. I wrote it like I was blogging. LoL. =)

Wallet Lost 102

The Ultimate Guide to Wallet Lost With Photos

So you lost your wallet, sucks right? You have to be responsible with all the things you lost with, money and most importantly, the documents. What are you going to do then? Tell your parents that you are 18 already, and you will settle that yourself. (Save yourself from all the awful nagging.)

Call your bank 24 hours customer service immediately, inform them that you lost your ATM card or any other cards like credit cards, prepaid cards, prepaid credit cards and etc. They will require your account details. After that, your current card will be blocked. Don't forget this, very important. You don't want people to run around with your money.

Go to the nearest police station, tell the police you need to make a police report regarding on your wallet lost. Inform them what's inside the wallet, for a typical student you will normally lost your IC, your license, your ATM, your student ID and some cash in it. Make sure in the report he show you before the police print consist of all the items you lost. You will proceed into a room with a higher status of police to certify your report. Pay RM2 for the police report.

Document Replacement
Among all of the lost documents, replace your IC first. All the other documents require your temporary IC for identification purposes.

Checklist
Police Report Original X 1
Police Report Photostatted X 3
License Photo X 1
Replacement Cost = RM150 ~ RM 200
Pen X 1
College Offer Letter X 1

Wear a dark shirt with collar and dress properly.

People in the Subang Jaya, USJ, PJ and Sunway area may follow this method to go to the Jabatan Pendaftaran Negara.

Hop on to the nearest KTM, proceed to KL central. Swap to the LRT and proceed to the Taman Jaya station, which cost RM1.60.

Leave the station via the very small gate, the one in the car park without the gigantic electrical towers.Exit Through This Gate

Passing through the small gate you will see another car park on your right, the JPJ car park. Yes, Jabatan Pengangkutan Jalan is also there. You know what to do later. Don't turn in just yet. Keep on walking straight down the road.

JPJ Car Park Area

You should see the orange/yellow building in front, that's the new makhamah follow the road down and you should see Jabatan Meteologi and Jabatan Kimia at the end of the road all on your right.

Follow this road till the end

When you reach to the very end of the road, which is a junction to the main road, identify a big Poh Kong opposite you.

Poh Kong at the opposite shop lots

Turn to the right, don't go over to Poh Kong, Follow the pavement until you see a building with a lot of "holes" written, Jabatan Persekutuan something something.

The Entrance

Go in through the big gate, proceed to the right wing. They have signboards there anyway. Go to the 1st floor, and enter the JPN through an auto sliding door.

In the JPN

In the JPN
Go to the Counter 1 and tell them you lost your IC, let the person see your police report and inform the person you are a student. He will pass you a number, an appeal form and staple your photostated police report all together. Fill up the appeal form to appeal for 50% discount for your IC replacement because you are a student. If you are not a student, then you will just have to pay the full amount.

When the counter called your number in a very funny tone, proceed to the counter. Make sure you don't miss the number, they don't like it. Show her the forms, let the personnel see your college offer letter to prove that you are a student. No, you don't have your student ID, remember? Pay RM60 if your are a student, pay RM110 if you are not a student. You will receive a receipt there. Proceed to counter 15 and 16 to wait for your turn to take photo. You will receive a temporary IC here. You will need to come back here in 2 weeks along with the receipt and the temporary IC to get your replacement IC.

In the JPJ
With your temporary IC, go back to the JPJ car park and look for JPJ which located diagonally with the car park. Enter through the right hand alley, not the main gate.

The Side Entrance

Go to the enquiry counter and tell her you need to replace you license. She will give you a number, wait for it and proceed to the counter when called. Say that you need to replace your license. Show the person your temporary IC and pay RM20. Give the person your photo and wait for your license for around 5 minutes. License Retrieved.

This is the two documents that needs to be done at PJ. Sit the train and go back home. For ATM, student ID please proceed back to the respective places with your police report and your temporary IC for replacement.

If you got yourself lost in any part of the task, just ask.

May the wallet be with you,

庆祝

从她的家回家的时候, 我驾着妈妈的车.

透过它那蒙蒙的前镜, 就在树林的后边, 我看到了烟花.

烟花好远, 但是我清清楚楚的看到它的色彩.

烟花好快, 但是我清清楚楚的记得它的美丽.

"在庆祝什么呀?" 我自言自语.

烟花结束后, 才觉得其实根本不需要理由来庆祝.

为什么总要有着原因, 目的和理由呢?

难道就不能简单的为自己庆祝一下?

"Can I take you out for lunch?" 我在电话里问她.

"Why?"

"带你去吃午餐一定要理由吗?"

"好啦! 可是我没有车, 妈妈四点要用车."

"我去check一下我的妈妈有没有用车." 那时候的我, 我刚刚睡醒不到十五分钟.

"你都睡到这样迟的哦, 实在有福气." 我看着电话, 一度怀疑她在监视我.

"我还要先冲凉."

"迟点SMS我啦!"

"哦." 我把电话盖上,走出房间, 顺利地看到车子就停在家门口.

非常幸运的, 我妈妈今天没有用到车.

因为那一天, 她坐在我驾的车里.

"我终于坐在你亲手驾的车了." 她笑着.

我决定以笑而不答心自"爽"来回应她的微笑.

"你知道吗? 当你问一个女生:'Can I take you out for lunch?' 的时候, it means you are going to pay for her." 她的笑容变得有一点阴险.

"I'm sorry. 我真的不知道欸." 我实在是不知道, 也发现我说话下次要非常小心了.

随时破产也不知道发生什么事.

"为什么要带我去吃午餐?" 她可能不喜欢我刚才的答案.

"需要原因哦?"

"一定有目的的." 她坚定地点头.

"你还在坚持什么?" 我翻了白眼.

"纯粹去吃东西啦!" 我不想让她知道, 其实我要为她庆祝, 因为她是我的朋友.

电台里播着很好听的音乐, 当时我是快乐的.

"不如去找TONG吧! 不知道他回来了吗?" 她建议道.

"你call他咯." 我把我的电话交给她.

TONG的全名很赞, 三个字都是以NG结束的, 还押韵的叻.

但是, 我们还是喜欢叫他的那么特别的姓.

他是我们的老大. 要简单地形容他的话, 应该是"成熟,稳重然后带一点随性的感觉."

他在中学的时候是我和她在童子军里的老大.

当时的我是老二, 她是秘书.

"为什么我来来去去都只能做秘书?" 她怨道.

"注定的." 他拍拍她的肩膀, 然后很潇洒的走掉.

我们真的被炸到.

还好我们约他快, 要不然当TONG回到家的时候, 要绑架他出来喝茶, 比谋杀国家安全委员会的成员更难.

因为他要读书.

"Lifeless."我都是这样呛他.

当他从车站走出来的时候, 实在是带着那阵沧桑.

手里那着两个书包, 头发在风中飘动.

唉, 两个字 - 沧桑.

为了求学而离家住到那样远, 难免的, 难免的.

只有每个周末才能回家一趟, 难免的, 难免的.

"去哪里吃?" 他一上车就问我们.

"不懂." 我耸一耸肩.

"什么?!" 接着车上是一阵恐怖的活动, 我们恐怖的综合笑声.

可能

我坐在地上,身边坐着Elaine.

不是因为什么特殊的原因,可能只为了那个插头.

赶着准备我们班游考试的文件. 整班去旅游还有考试? 再如何难以置信都好,那是真的. 它的难度不在于筹备的阶段,而是怎样去处理我们的那一位恐怖至极的老师.

“好饿哦!” 可能刚才还没吃午餐.

我觉得在我大学生涯中, 除了”Yes, yes, okay, okay.” 和“No, I don’t agree.”之外,第三名可能是”I’m hungry.” 了.

食物在一位学生的生活中,扮演着相当重要的角色.

奇怪的是, 我常常会出现食物短缺的问题.

可能食物上所花费的费用和我缺钱用有很直接的关系.

唉.

看着Elaine的手指在她手提电脑上跳来跳去. 我呢, 就在纸上猛算着我们班游的预算案.

“欸, 我的bag里好像有东西吃.” Elaine的视线没有离开荧幕过.

我的眼睛可能可以像闪光灯那样闪烁了.

因为,食物永远是美好的.

Elaine从包包里拿出Chipsmore.

还是extra chocolate的那一种.

眼睛简直可以当雷射割东西了.

认识我的人都知道我对巧克力情有独钟, 可能还上瘾了.

“非常不好意思. 本人因陷入肚子饿的困境,所以就不客气咯!” 我马上把包装撕开.

“吃吧!” Elaine便继续奋斗了.

吃着巧克力饼干的感觉好幸福, 可能我饿坏了.

Elaine在百忙之中, 抽了十五分钟去探病, 还见了两位老师.

可能我太专心了吧.

Elaine 不在的时候, 她,来了, 带着她的招牌笑容.

可能巧克力饼干早已经吃完了.

Eclipse

I saw eclipse on the 1st day of Chinese New Year at Melaka. I called everyone to go observe, but apparently the weather don't like us. Wanted to show to the friends that missed it, but Esther said it was all over the newspaper the next day. Oh well, I saw just post it anyway.

This is how you suppose to look at an eclipse, using a magnetic strip in the VCR tape. That's my dad watching the eclipse by the way.
This is how the eclipse looks like through the magnetic strip.
At around 6pm, the most optimum time to watch the eclipse without any accessories.

It's rather cloudy that day. The sun is rather small too. Click on the image to enlarge it. The sun actually look like a moon that day and I have to spend 30 minutes explaining how eclipses happen and that's not a moon.

Too bad in Malaysia we will never be able to observe a full eclipse. =(

My 1st live observation on eclipse.

Cool.
