To Wes Borland fans out there, eat your heart out. For those that are in the dark, let me enlighten you a little. He used to be the guitar player in Limp Bizkit, the one that put on loads of make up before going on stage. He came down to Penang to have a guitar clinic. He played a couple of songs and interacted with crowd answering questions and requests. He started off in a special way, by drawing a picture of something and some fan got to keep the drawing. Another kid got his guitar pick that said dumb stupid pig. After that he had a small autograph session. Fans also got to take pictures with him. He's very humble I should say. Although I got his autograph he got my name half wrong. Well what the heck. At least I have his autograph. Haha. He's really good at playing the guitar. I especially liked the part where he played the guitar like a violin. It really sounded like a violin. I was so impressed.
Another hectic week over. Sports Days is also over and done with. Homework stacked up to the ceiling. And most important of all, I have not done any revision for my exam next week. Tomorrow is already Sunday and I doubt I will have time to revise everything in time for next Wednesday. After that, it will be a week of holidays and after that it will be hectic weeks ahead until the musical ends. It seems that my workload will only increase as the days pass by. In the blink of an eye, Chinese New Year is ending tomorrow. I don't think I will be throwing any mandarin oranges into sea at the moment as I don't even have to time to sit and relax and just do nothing at all. It is also already in the month of March. Which means another 7 months till STPM and yet I don't feel that I am prepared. I don't study. I don't have time to even finish up my homework. Maybe I am not sacrificing enough, just like what my chemistry teacher says, "You have time for everything. You just have to be disciplined and be willing to sacrifice your time, e.g: sleep" I think I will sacrifice my sleep today

Come tomorrow, it will be Valentine's Day which everyone has much awaited. It is during this time of the year that I have ever felt lonelier. What with seeing others receiving flowers, presents and etc that makes me turn into the green eyed monster. On the other hand, if I were to have another half, I think I would feel complicated. I've heard lots of things that makes me feel that love is VERY complicated. I think I'll give it a pass right now and enjoy being SINGLE! It's just another ordinary day for me.
Went for a movie last Friday after a very very long time. The Holiday is a nice movie; good script , nice scenery , romantic and beautiful language. I will recommend this movie for those that are looking for a nice and warm fuzzy movie. Can you believe that the most touching scene in the movie was when a 90 year old man walked into an auditorium filled to the brim and had a standing ovation from all that attended the ceremony. You must be wondering why is there an old man in a romantic flick. Go check it out yourselves. I like Jude Law in the movie. He's such a romantic. Reminder : This is a 2 and a half hour movie.
Are you READY?!!! Yeah... The atmosphere in the stadium is still fresh in my mine. What am I talking about? I went to RAIN's concert last weekend. I remembered posting up a blog ranting that my life sucked and was boring. But can you believe that I only decided to go watch his concert at 12midnight on Friday. Anyway, I rushed down to KL to see him. Stayed with my cousin. It was an ADVENTUROUS weekend for me.
The concert goers comprised of Chinese, Malay, Indians that mostly spoke English (overheard them talking)...Can you believe it? The fans range from young children of 10years of age to fathers and mothers that came along with their children. The concert was indoors and had air condition. So, no sweat!
Rain's concert is one of the most enjoyable concert I went to, apart from Lee Hom's. His concert was full of nice graphics and very uniquely designed stage. Loads of big screens too. Rain drenched in artificial rain. Too bad our censorship board banned him from showing his abs to us....haha ;P The concert was 2 hours. Rain spoke to the audience too, with PERFECT English,with a little tinge of Korean Accent. The stadium was packed. Fans came from Japan, Thailand, Hong Kong and they all bought the pit tickets which cost RM1000 each(still cheaper compared to Singapore's RM2000 ticket) . Sang lots of songs, all in Korean and I only know around 10 songs but I can't sing them except for I Do. When he sang the song Friends, it was so so touching. He stood on an elevated platform and suddenly a pair of wings came out making him look like he was flying.
Lots of people were waiting in line to take pictures with this poster after the concert. I'm in the same seat as Rain. This is the first class seat in Korean Air. The stewardess adjusted the seat for me till I could lie down straight, plus a tv at the rear-end. The korean stewardesses were pretty. After the concert ended, my cousin and tried to flag down a taxi. We succeeded after waiting for around 15 minutes. When we got on to the taxi, two vans were beside our taxi. I noticed they came out from the stadium, so I stared at it thinking that I might see Rain(I know it's not that easy). Suddenly, someone waved at me and I waved back. I got so excited. But when I looked properly, it was a girl. I think she was the dancer or something. The van in front had some guys in it but the taxi was too fast that I only managed to have a glimpse. I think it must be the band or other dancers....haiiihhhh...someday.....hhahahahaha
Coming back to Penang was also exciting for me cause I almost missed my bus because I totally forgot about the time while shopping in KLCC . I reached the platform at 2.05pm for my 2.15pm bus. When I wanted to go up, he told me the bus was FULL. I was SHOCKED. He told me there will be another one leaving at the same time and not to worry. Luckily after 10minutes, he showed me and some other passengers to our bus.
After all the hustle and bustle, it was worth it because I went to Rain's concert!!! Next, I want to go to Lee Hom's concert!!! Hopefully I get to go!(crossing my fingers really hard)
Been very busy lately. Maybe that's the main reason I fell sick last weekend. Down with fever and flu. Why am I so busy? I too wonder myself. Everyday, stay back in school foe meetings, sports practice and still going for tuition, where the hell do I find time to finish up my homework? and rest? It's either this or that. NOT both. So I pick the latter. Furthermore, my classroom is at the very end of the school, so by the time I get to the canteen everyday, recess is almost over. Life sucks. Now with the weekend here, most of the time are already dedicated to finishing my homework and catching up on my sleep. My life really sucks loads.
Another thing on my mind...MONEY.. I can't seem to have enough of it. I want to get more CNY clothes. I want to go to so many concerts especially Rain and Lee Hom's. I so wanna go so badly. Students are poor people. Why are these two problems always bugging me?? I now these are just minor problems but they pose a big obstacle for me........why...why...tell me why....Maybe it's because I don't know how to appreciate all the things that I already have and take things for granted. My head is so heavy now. I need some break... I'm like a volcano just waiting to erupt, you know, like the volcanoes in Sinking of Japan..... I need something new in my pathetic life. I need some sleep..noww...
ATTN : TO ALL RAIN'S FANS, HE'S ARRIVING TONIGHT AT KLIA AT 10.25PM USING THE NORMAL ARRIVE HALL. SO GO WELCOME HIM YOU ALL!!
Finally the long awaited wedding of the eldest cousin in Penang took place with relatives coming from as far as Jakarta and Australia and friends from Singapore. All I can say is that is was a joyous occasion with lots of drama, pictures and memories to be remembered( and also a good excuse to dress up ;P)
The bride and her family and friends The groom coming to 'fetch' the bride in the morning. The wedding reception All dressed up for the occasion YAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMM SSSEEEEENNNNGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!! Why do I have to carry your heavy train??!! UGGHHHH!!! The end.....
Although there an after-party at Momo. Went with me cousin and the bride's friends. Momo was quite nice and the friends were really partying, but the club was kind of empty. Maybe next time, I should head down there with my friends. Took a picture in there but it was too dark and couldn't see the interior..
Went home at 2am. Slept at 3am and woke up at 7am to do gotong-royong in school which was a failure and made me sacrificed my beauty sleep for nothing...iiiissssshhhhhh
How did I celebrate my new year you may ask.. Let me tell you. I spent my very last day of 2006 falling sick. I had a bad tummy from the moment I woke up. I was walking around like a zombie feeling slightly feverish and ended my day by sleeping early and all alone at home. I was terrified that I will fell worse on the 1st day of 2007 as it was a new year and also my cousin's wedding. I couldn't afford to be sick. Luckily I felt better, but I had diarrhea. Still do now....
I think this will be the most memorable new year ever. On 30/12/2006 my brother was admitted into the hospital for food poisoning. A few other of my relatives also had diarrhea plus vomiting. Today in school I heard Jean also had fever and also vomited yesterday. What happened? How com everyone is suffering from this disease?
Anyway today is the first day of school and I already felt sleepy in class, have tonnes of homework and projects to complete. ARRGGHHH!!!! and also.. I just fought with my mum.....haaiiihhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh........what on earth is happening to me??????????????????????????????????????????????????
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.
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.
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
My brother and his friends that managed to get into the finals
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!
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!!!
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
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!!!
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.
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..
