Smoke!!!! HELP!!!

Yesterday night I went to the pasar malam in Farlim with my two brothers and two aunts. All of us cramped into my mini. After the pasar malam, we decided to go for char koay teow in Anson Road. Suddenly smoke came out of nowhere. So I pulled my car by the roadside, just right opposite Han Chiang High School. I tried to stop the engine but the ignition key won't budge one bit. Everyone in the car panicked and rushed out of the car while I still tried to stop the engine. After few tries, I managed to stop the engine. My aunts were worried that the car might blow up. Everyone was out of the car except for me. 5 minutes after the smoke disappeared, we decided to risk our lives by driving home. Luckily our house was nearby. Today the mechanic came. He said the wiring got burnt. Luckily the engine didn't catch fire. If not, I would have a burned pig today.

Ex-Georgian Annual Dinner




Pre-Christmas Clubbing

After procrastinating for the past year, my friends finally had enough courage to go clubbing with me and sp. And this time I swear that it has been the best trip ever. I went with a bunch of pretty girls, 2 air-hostesses, one who is a part-time model and and half angmoh. Everyone was all pretty and dressed up. It was fun although I saw a few incidents that I personally felt disgusted. There was this couple that was smooching right smack in the middle of the stage. Helloo...can't you do it elsewhere? You're just putting on a free show for everyone when nobody's interested and taking up a hell lot of space. I reached home nearly 4am only to find that the water supply has been cut off. So that meant I couldn't bath. All I could do was to clean my face with a make up remover. I ended up sleeping on the floor because I smelled like a walking cigarette.

This entire holiday had been hectic. Can you believe that I have been waking at 7am every morning eventhough it is a school holiday? Everyday I will be busy with either my tuition, german language class or yoga and I have to find time for my golf practice as well. And not forgetting that I also have guitar lessons. While I am busy slaving away my 24hours which is still not enough for me, my friends are having a nice holiday watching dvds and sleeping till 12pm everyday. And as if my workload is not enough, I just had to find more work for myself by helping my cousin do his assignment which I now know that it is very difficult. ARRRGGGGHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

With just 2 weeks of holidays left, I doubt I will have any relaxing time to myself before the start of a new school term which is going to be hectic as well.

Nähe des Geliebten ; Nearness of the Beloved One

This is one of my favourite poems.

Ich denke dein,
wenn mir der Sonne schimmer



I think of you,
when I see the sun's shimmer
Vom Meere strahlt; Gleaming from the sea.
Ich denke dein,
wenn sich des Mondes Flimmer
I think of you,
when the moon's glimmer
In Quellen malt. Is reflected in the springs.


Ich sehe dich,
wenn auf dem fernen Wege
I see you,
when on the distant road
Der Staub sich hebt, The dust rises,
In tiefer Nacht,
wenn auf dem schmalen Stege
In deep night,
when on the narrow bridge
Der Wandrer bebt. The traveler trembles.


Ich höre dich,
wenn dort mit dumpfem Rauschen
I hear you,
when with a dull roar
Die Welle steigt. The wave surges.
Im stillen Haine geh' ich oft zu lauschen, In the quiet grove I often go to listen
Wenn alles schweigt. When all is silent.


Ich bin bei dir,
du seist auch noch so ferne,
I am with you,
however far away you may be,
Du bist mir nah! You are next to me!
Die Sonne sinkt,
bald leuchten mir die Sterne.
The sun is setting,
soon the stars will shine upon me.
O wärst du da! If only you were here!

J.W. von Goethe

Dress Up For The Festival!

Last week my brother joined a cosplay competition in Gurney in conjunction with a Tokio Festival held there. For those that are in the dark about cosplay, it is a competition where people dress up as their favourite anime or any other character. The best impersonator wins. My brother dressed up as a guy from a band by the name of Gazette(hopefully I am correct). Anyway, he and his friends didn't manage to clinch any prizes although I personally felt that they deserved to win. Actually I pity them as they really put in a lot of effort and also money for their tailor made jackets and wigs. They lost because of their lack of stage presence. Anyway here are some pictures that you rarely see.


Me, my brother and some other contestants

New Hairstyle

Finally, after thinking about it for so long, I went to perm my hair. The first reaction that my brother gave me was...It's so ugly!!!! My mum said the curl is nice. My cousin said, you look kind of matured now. My friend and her mum said, Its nice. What the f*ck!! Why so many different reactions??!! Since my camera is broken..I can't take a photo of myself to post up here. Anyway, I'm going for a job interview tomorrow. Hopefully I will get the job. I'm in desperate need for $$$. I WANT TO GET SO MANY THINGS. Shoes, bags, dresses..girls can never have to many of these you know..So people, cross your fingers and wish me LUCK!

HOLIDAYS!!!

At last my 1 and a half month's holiday is here. I've been waiting for it for the past 3 weeks since school reopened after the Raya holidays. I have a complicated feel about school closing though. Last day of school also means that it is the last day for my friend, Subbs..She leaving to pursure nursing under a scholarship program from LWE Hospital. I will definitely miss her. She's a very bubbly person and very in tune with entertainment. I bet she sits in front of the television all day. Just like myself, addicted to tv. You can just ask her what ever series that you have missed on tv and she's there to tell you, but only English series.

Today is also sort of a historical day in my schooling life where until the very last day of school where practically the entire school population were fooling around having loads of fun, almost everyone in my class had to finish up our chemistry experiment. Every year, on the last day of school, I will be playing and chit chatting, but not today. I guess this is what people call Form 6.

But it was not all work and no play though. That is so not me. We had some sort of a small farewell party for Subbs. Ordered pizzas and took photos. Exchanged email adds and all.

This holiday, my schedule is busy to the core. I have my biology ecology project to settle. Loads of homework which I have accumulated during the past 3 weeks. My tuition homework and my chemistry tuition has doubled its classes which means I have to attend 12 classes during my school break. This also means I can't find any part time jobs to earn extra money, but I'M BROKE!!!VERY BROKE!!!

RIMUP Day

Wondering what is RIMUP Day? RIMUP stands for Rancangan Integrasi Murid Untuk Perpaduan. On this special day, you get to wear traditional clothes to school. Everyone is exempted from wearing their school attire. This is my first time wearing a cheongsam and samfoo and punjabi suit all in a day. And also on that very day, I performed 2 types of dances in front of the entire school. For your information, I've never danced for any programs planned by the school. I can't upload pictures for unknown reasons. Anyway I'm very tired....Lights out! Good nite

Holiday!!!

At last my holiday has come! How was my exam you may ask? Can't be bothered, but I think I did kind of badly in my Math. Just want to enjoy my holidays now as this is seriously my very last holiday that I can enjoy. November and December holidays, my tuition are going to double and each is 3 hours long.My dad has been saying about going to Hadyai for the past few days, hopefully I can really go. I think it has been 10 years since I last went there(cross my fingers). My dad has been asking me to take up German since he say it in the newspapers 2 weeks back. I'm still pondering whether if I should.

2 grasshoppers that I have been rearing for my Bio project for the past 3 weeks. All they do is eat and shit and heck they shit a lot.

Another picture from Ping's Birthday party


And one more thing...Happy Deepavali and Selamat Hari Raya!!!

Cute cute baby!!


Just watched Rob-B-Hood. Its very very funny. And the baby, Matthew, he's just SO SO SO CUTE. His eyes are so big and cute and can just melt any heart. At the ending of the movie, a guy that sat beside my friend even cried. That, I tell it's not something that you see everyday. Alive, and the just married Nicholas Tse also have some small roles in this movie.

I went for an interview some weeks ago. They just had to call me right before my exam to work. Obviously I had to reject because I still have like, stacks of books and notes to study. And what with only less than a week to exam, I will have to burn the midnight oil. This serves me right though. I have been procrastinating for the past few days and watching Princess Hours instead.

I have a feeling that I am going to do badly in my exam. Especially my chemistry. Have you ever heard of a teacher that comes late to school more often than her students? Have you ever heard of a chemistry teacher that doesn't even know what hybridisation is or even how to pronounce it correctly? Because she doesn't know how to teach, we have to rely on ourselves + tuition(if we even have one as some of my classmates don't take tuitions) and have to teach each other in class with the help of a laptop and a CD. Now, that very teacher is feeling a bit panicky as she is afraid that her students might fail in the exam and has to see face-to-face with the principal. Now, you know why students nowadays flock to tuition centres eventhough they are expensive some times. Hello, it is US that are sitting for STPM and our future that we're talking about here.

I fell much better now after complaining. Now, it is time for me to stare at my books.

PARTY!! and Prada



Watched devil wears prada yesterday. The entrance was packed because Rob-b-hood was just screening and they had random bag checks. To tell the truth I don't really think these spotchecks work at all. Even before the film is in the cinemas, you can already get them at any pirated dvd stalls. Anyway, back to prada. All the stuff in the film are just so pretty.. the clothes, the bags, the shoes, can just get my eyes off them. hahahaha... I'm thinking of a career in a publishing firm now...just for the sack of all those pretty little things that you get FOC...hahahha.. Or maybe cross my fingers and pray that I will strike the jackpot soon...1 million dollar, maybe?

After the movie, went straight to Ping's birthday party. Late as usual, but there are always people that came even later..I vow from today onwards I'll try to be punctual and not be the typical Malaysia..But I doubt the change will come any time soon..

Party time over and Exam Time starts..haaiiihzzzz

Exam blues...

I'm starting to feel the exam blues nowadays..It's just 2 weeks away and I have TONNES to remember. I have a feeling that my chemistry is going to go down the drain. As for Bio, my only hope is to be able to read through all the chapters that I have studied. These few days, I don't know why I keep falling asleep in class? Is it because my body is way too tired? I don't know. I feel so blur nowadays. I am so looking forward to this Friday, I have a movie to catch and a party to attend, but I dread Saturday as it is a schooling day.

Yesterday I accidentally cut my tumb while doing my biology project. I hurt my index finger while playing golf. Both injuries on the same hand. So my left hand has only 3 fingers that is perfectly functioning.

Quotes..

These are some quotes that I came upon not long ago..You can't really believe who said them

One day you may ask me which do I love more? My life or you. I will answer my life, as some day you might leave me. Then you will just leave me without asking the reason why. You will never know that YOU are my life.
-Edison Chen-

A lot of people want to ride in the limousine with you, but what you want is someone who will take the bus with you when the limousine breaks down.
-Oprah Winfrey-

The one that Edison said, I can't remember word for word. I think I remembered it correctly(hopefully).

School is again boring,especially chem. I wonder if she really did graduate and obtain her degree to even teach lower secondary studensts. My exam is just 3 weeks away! Arrgghhh....Hopefully I will be a tad more hardworking then I will be able to enjoy my DeepaRaya Holidays to the max!
I am so broke. I need to work! I want so many things. Short term-iPod and David Tao concert tickets. Long term-Holiday trips!

Lust, Caution-Pics

Ang Lee in Penang on Sunday..Surveying the Location

Ang Lee and his crew looking at the filming location from the opposite road

Took pictures while waiting..this is the new Church Street Pier..Nice scenery.If it weren't for the filming there, I wouldn't have gone there also...Took this illegally. I was not suposed to be standing there because they blocked the entry with a rope. After I took this pic, the guard came and told me off... ;D

The building used for filming

Lee Hom and Tang Wei and Ang Lee Having 'Fan Hap' for dinner

Flies and Crickets.

Yesterday I bought 20 crickets and squated near the big rubbish bin to catch 3 flies. Don't you think it's a bit crazy? Anyway, today I killed one cricket and 2 flies with parafin. Then using forceps, I pinned them on styrofoams and put them in the oven. Am I too cruel? This is just part of my biology experiment that is compulsory for school. Soon I'll have to kill and preserve 25 more insects. One girl in my class caught a dragonfly. After she finished pinning it to the styrofoam, it moved. She killed it again with another dose of parafin(I think).

Crickets that I bought

Flies that I caught


Soon, I will have to disect rats. I've heard lots of stories about students disecting rats. Some female rats are pregnant because they saw the babies inside its tummy. Doesn't it just sounds cruel. I have to do a lot of good deeds to cover my sin killing these insects and animals.

Lust, Caution

I went to see the filming of the new Ang Lee movie, Lust, Caution in Penang on Sunday. Only saw Ang Lee with his crews. They were surveying the filming location. No signs of Lee Hom or the lead lady, Tang Wei. Then I heard some girls beside me saying that filming will only take place the next day(Monday) from 6am-10pm. Damn, I had tuition on Mondays. Decided to go after tuition instead. Besides, I don't have to brave the heat in the afternoon. I went to Church Street together with my two brothers. They hired so many extras. How come I didn't know about it? Even ang mos, aunties and kids knew about it. We were not allowed to go near. It was very quiet. Maybe it is because my friend said that they chased people away in the afternoon because it was too noisy. So we went looking around the newly built Church Street Pier.

After around 20minutes, we went back to the main road. Still very quiet. I thought the filming was over as the extras were leaving in vans. However the lights were still on. So I continued waiting. Then we went to stand at the guard house. There were 2 other girls there. Then suddenly they started snapping photos. I looked. It was Lee Hom(at last..haha), together with Ang Lee and Tang Wei. They were having their break. They had 'fan hap' for dinner. Such a pity as Penang is famous for its food and they had to consume 'fan hap'. I talked to the girls. Found out that one had been there since 2pm! The other came right after work.
Then we moved nearer. We stood in the middle of the road to take picture but we were warned not to take pics with flash. Then Tang Wei stood up and went to the ladies' escorted by an assistant. I didn't know that it was Tang Wei until when she came back from toilet and the reporters started to chase after her for pics. Then the crews got angry and asked everyone to stand back at the opposite road. So we went back to the guard house. I was talking with the 2 girls when I saw 3 guys walking towards our direction. Then I said Lee Hom. The 2 girls were shocked and asked WHERE?!. THERE!! Then 2 guys escorting him said Don't Take Pics! Then the 2 girls shouted LEE HOM! He slowed down, turned and smiled and waved at us!!!!(he was good looking even in the costume and hair down. I thought he looked kinda nerdy when I read and saw his pic in the newspaper) There were only the 5 of us there!! Then he quickly went to the men's. I was ecstatic! Then when he was walking back, he walked faster as everyone now knows that he is there and they started to walk towards our place. I was so happy! It was worth waiting eventhough I didn't get to see the filming process.

no pics now. having problems uploading them. will load soon

Bored

School is really boring..I've been dozing off in class for...(COUNTLESS)..Some teachers are just so boring except for maybe MUET and also during Biology experiments. Some just don't bother to even enter the class..So most of my time in school is spent reading newspapers or talking to beauty with brains that is sitting beside me or dozing.. How can I make my school life a 'little' more interesting?

(I know this is a stupid post but what the heck) ;D

Beautiful boys



Day : Saturday
Date : 2/9/06
Time : 7pm

The much awaited Kangta and Vanness finally chose Malaysia as one of their promotional stops and luckily for they came down to Penang and not just KL. They straight away kicked off the event with their song Scandal with their oh-so-hot dance moves. There were fans from Thailand, Indonesia, Singapore and Philippines. They came all prepared, armed with banners and playcards. When they stepped onto the stage, Pingpong and I got shocked because we never ever thought that they looked that good in real life. They can dance very well also. Everyone there went ecstatic! Next up was 127 days and One Day. Their voices are good. Kangta's was slightly better though. Then they sang Yong Qi in in a mix of korean and mandarin.

After all the performances, everyone rushed to line up to get their autograph. When I went up to the line, I was practically the last person, except those that purposely waited to be the last to get their autographs. Although the line was long, it was not long before it was my turn to get their signatures. Unexpectedly, they were very polite. I noticed that Vannes thanked each and every fan that went up and Kangta handed each and every single cd back to the fans, and I do mean each and every single cd. He has even got the courtesy to shake hands with fans although the bodyguards kept on trying to block the fans from shaking theirs hands. Kangta insisted to shake with the fans that put out their hands.(I didn't get to shake because too busy looking at them, haha). They have very fair complexion. And very nice skin, smooth and all. I bet their skin are better than some girls. At the end of the autograph session, some fans got a bit agressive though. They kept on insisting to talk to them and wanting to take photos with them. Kangta and Vanness obliged anyway.I felt that they fans were very rough. Here is a video I recorded yesterday : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ka0h8jx6V-o

Pretty memories UGLY present

Yesterday was Malaysia's 49th birthday. I had a wonderful day as well; together with all my friends. We were supposed to go Tambun for some nice seafood but ended up instead swimming and having a karaoke and cooking session at home..It was fun..especially the swimming part where 2 girls were pushing and pulling each other into the pool. Saw something weird though, a frog drowned in the pool. Have you ever seen a frog drown?.. Apart from that, everything else was nice..a perfect outing apart from gurney..Must have more of this activity once in a while

However, today is a disaster. I had biology test today. I DID NOT prepare at all. So I practically wrote all crappy answers for the test. And this carries 5% of my end year exam marks. I almost had the urge to tell my teacher that she can just forget about marking my paper as I had no idea what the questions want. Not a single clue. But I guess it serves me right for not studying for it earlier.
