Hypocritical Paradox

So.

2010-12-27T11:26:00.001+08:00

Take that, you spammers.

Terrible terrible damage...

2010-10-13T10:17:00.004+08:00

Last night marked one of the worst chain nightmares I ever had. and that was only after I managed to shake and cough my sad way to sleep after tossing and turning for hours. As if being sick from the fluctuating 'spring' wasn't enough.

So, first things first. Australia is being hit by a major weather whirlpool. Its spring as it is now, the flowers are out and blooming, insects are buzzing around annoying everyone, the sun is shining warm and sunny, and then the downpour came.

So much for spring. Heh.

The rain wasn't bad, but it did bring a bunch of other creepy crawlies that try to make their way indoors safe and warm and to share a room with me or the rest of my housemates. Caught this guy trying to find somewhere warmer and drier in my room.

Not much else to say. I enjoyed a medley of new and old nightmares back to back in my troubled sleep. Sleeping has never been so much more scary. Next thing you know I'm gonna start having Freddy Krueger in my dreams. MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

That's bout it. Keep warm peeps and don't let the weather beat you down! Exams are right round that corner!

Stealer of cheap laptops

2010-09-24T09:10:00.003+08:00

This is a public outcry at the injustice and immoral deeds of a certain someone or somebodies. You bastards, you actually DIDN'T have the heart, to do the unthinkable, the unspeakable, the UNHEARABLE ACT OF:

Stealing my two fan cheong friends' laptops.

I mean, cmon...

If you wanna steal laptops at least steal high end laptops. Why steal normal, average Dell laptops? AND IN BROAD DAYLIGHT TOO.

IN MONASH MALAYSIA LIBRARY TOO.

WTF WTF WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU?!

I won't curse you guys cuz my two lovely fan cheong friends have and probably are still cursing you/you people. So I'll just say that God have mercy on your soul for what you did that day.... was.... so wrong :(

How To Train Your Dragon

2010-09-08T19:57:00.002+08:00

Just watched the show last week, and I gotta say... I don't hate it at all.

In fact, I like it. I like it very much. I LOVE IT.

The soundtracks, the animation, even the storyline. Its all wonderful. The hero, even the dragon are all amazing. Here is the one soundtrack that basically sums the whole movie up. It is one of the best soundtracks of the show too.

What do you have to say about that, you blog spammers, hmm?

Pain of Anguish

2010-08-06T15:52:00.004+08:00

That's actually the name of a level of a game that I once played on my ps2. Seems like years ago. Which it kinda is.

Stabbing shadows in the dark,
frustration at my ineptitude.
Common sense is like the undead,
wandering the living like a monster.
But why? But how?
So many questions.

Which answer do you seek?
I search the what and how,
you search the why.
Stumbling over narrow minded precipices,
sometimes what is unclear is what you're looking for.

Find my reason, find my self.
Rejoice at the old and new, celebrate!
Celebrate, I say.
Give thanks and praise to what you own.
Give thanks and praise for what you sow.

Life's a bitch, we've all heard that before.
Life's also beautiful, but we've heard that also.
Life isn't beginning and end,
life isn't the in-between either.
Tis a journey we go round and round,
can I accept what is beyond comprehension?

Randuuuuummmmmmmm.

And one more semi annual period passes...

2010-07-26T15:23:00.003+08:00

Since when was it August? Huh? HUH?

ITS AUGUST NOW?!?!

Well on that note, new sem has started. I'm 12k poorer (again, stupid expensive fees), my job's still the same, I've got pigeons cooing in the ceiling above me every few hours or so, my new house is awesome though my room is said to be slightly boring and a bunch of friends have moved closer to either Melbourne or Caulfield.

Yippee.

So let's start this new half year by saying I DID BETTER FOR MY RESULTS THIS TIME, meaning I didn't fail anything this time, phew. Never knew you had to face so many urgent matters when living by yourself.

To that, cheers and happy new half year.

Resident : Evil

2010-07-13T08:02:00.004+08:00

I have no idea when I became such a Resident Evil fan, must be because I played too many of the game series. It was our oldest, most classic and original horror survival game genre franchise =)

Anyways,

for our chatbox convenience and consideration,

I leave a big space.... and...

There we go.

Looks very, VERY Matrix ish, but on the bright side we get to see a bunch of familiar characters tee hee! Interesting that this movie actually stemmed from video games instead of the classic book-turn-movie types like HP and the Twi-blight series.

So, to close it all off,

DIE WESKER, DIE.

Die, but make sure you die hard and leave some epic last words quote for us.

Freedom

2010-06-26T16:39:00.001+08:00

Damn I miss that feeling. The feeling of walking out of the exam hall and knowing YOU DON'T HAVE TO PICK UP A BOOK OR NOTES until next sem.

WOOT.

Sorry Thomas.

Now, on to finding a new place to stay and settling down.

Emo

2010-06-12T09:53:00.003+08:00

No it's not Elmo, it's emo.

After reading a few ranting posts of Thomas' blog, I feel the need to likewise express my thoughts on some SUPER COMMON misconceptions and misunderstanding of the word emo.

Emo is not a mood or a temporary attitude of a person, contrary to many people's beliefs. Us Asians tend to immediately link a person who is suddenly and inexplicably quiet, reserved or has some other withdrawn, sullen demeanour. What will we say?

Eh. Why're you emo-ing?

Or we could talk behind his/her back and say Why's he/she emo-ing?

Emo doesn't necessarily mean a short form of the word emotional. Emo is ACTUALLY:

- A style of rock music typically characterized by melodic musicianship and expressive, often confessional lyrics. - Wikipedia

- A genre of softcore punk music that integrates unenthusiastic melodramatic 17 year olds who dont smile, high pitched overwrought lyrics and inaudible guitar rifts with tight wool sweaters, tighter jeans, itchy scarfs (even in the summer), ripped chucks with favorite bands signature, black square rimmed glasses, and ebony greasy unwashed hair that is required to cover at least 3/5 ths of the face at an angle. - Urban Dictionary

- A culture or music style somewhat similar to Goth people. - Own definition ^^

Please do not wrongly use 'emo' to describe people, cuz 'emo' is a vast culture from the US. You haven't seen 'an' emo yet. So please, do not label people who are suddenly quiet, fuming inside, sullen, sulking etc, AS AN EMO.

We humans have emotions, obviously. Being emotional is what makes us human. So to call a certain person 'emo' is kinda weird isn't it? We all have emotions, so why state the obvious? I do not know who invented the mindset of emo in our country but I AM GROWING TIRED of being called AND seeing people getting called emo just because they are playing moving, emotional music on the piano? Listening to emotional music? Sulking? Suddenly quiet because of some internal disagreement?

Enough. I am not emo. We are not emo. Emo does not exist in our country.

Yet.

But you argue, then how about all those emo music? people moping around emo-ing cuz of their bf/gf?

Let me ask you, are all music composers who make music emo? Obviously don't look at mainstream etc. Are all instrumental music emo?

IS YIRUMA EMO?

Suck on that for a while. We are not emo. Distinguish sulking vs emo vs passionate please.

THIS IS EMO:

Still not convinced? Go and Google the three letters emo. I dare you to.

p.s. Just a random rant, to get some exam stress out ^^

Time goes by... So soon.

2010-05-19T20:13:00.003+08:00

Holy crap. I've hardly noticed that I've had this blog for years! Nearly 5 years now! Although I don't blog much like you, Thomas or other people who have more interesting lives, it is oddly satisfying seeing that this blog has been around for some time.

Now that's what I call dedication. Other like-minded bloggers have probably killed their blogs ages ago when writing or inspiration doesn't come by. (cough cough) I definitely don't visit my own blog for ages some times but it sure feels good to have you still standing. =)

Special thanks goes out to my lil sis; sibling to a proud brother, and good ol Thomas, friend to a friend, for giving me inspiration, competition, and something to blog about HAHA. Love ya guys, all of you.

If you've still been visiting this blog from time to time, my heartfelt thanks to you guys, you make blogging so worth it. Cheers!

So Race Is....

2010-05-17T13:14:00.002+08:00

Man.... Just when I thought he'd left for good the bugger comes back. Remember that ex housemate of mine? The oddball Viet dude?

Guess who's back.

Back again.

He-He's back.

Run to the end!

And the first thing I asked him was

Hey hi how're you?

Good. Andh hyu?

I'm good. Thanks.

Nuh I don't think so.

What?

Your face. Its been better.

*permastun*

He's probably referring to my volcanic face. Meh. FML

Whee M-m-more trailers!!

2010-05-01T13:15:00.004+08:00

One flawless flaw

2010-03-28T19:12:00.001+08:00

Finally realised one of my main shortcomings.

I am sensitive to insensitivity during sensitive times. Which is exactly why i am insensitive after that. Can u say insensitive to insensitivity???

2010-03-26T12:20:00.001+08:00

dedicated to my good friend and dai kor, who's going through a rough patch right now. you'll make it through buddy, just keep looking straight and don't let ur head fall down.

Chinese New Year with Wilson and Jocelyn

2010-02-14T21:44:00.006+08:00

Happy Chinese New Year!!!!!!!!

Although Melbourne does not celebrate the Lunar New Year like a proper festival, lots of us Asians here do. and how else to spend it here away from home so far from our families, if not with our friends??

so, welcome to Melbourne Jocelyn! me and Wilson brought her out to the city after a hard day's work of SETTLING DOWN. haha. Shanghai dumplings in Chinatown on CNY eve. awesome no?

then the usual after that. the walk around and let the bla bla digest la.

there's all the huge difference in the lighting cuz of the flash and stuff.

we detoured all the way to the Yarra river side.

Year seven and growing up

2010-02-09T18:36:00.003+08:00

Year seven. Back home in Malaysia that's the equivalent of Form One. The start of high school/secondary school. And what a surprise i had with a bunch of year seven students.

was on the train heading to the city and these 4 year 7 students, couldn't be older than 13 or 14 and just starting high school, were talking about very serious stuff like religion and tired old ladies and making sure to check their seats before leaving the train. i was rather impressed and scared at the same time.

it'd be pretty hard to find kids our age doing that kinda thing back home. or maybe i was just a slow bloomer? haha. Seriously, they were discussing the differences between Catholics and other Christine doctrines and taking Holy Communion and how old people who talk too much can get on your nerves and they even responded to a semi-drunk man on the train a few seats away. well here in Australia most of the kids and students start riding the train and going to school on their own starting from a very young age. its daunting to me.

and not to mention nostalgic.

if i had stayed there, and didn't return instead, i would've been brought up just like these Aussie children. i would probably learn a lot of things earlier than expected and taught to play sports and hold my own starting from very young. shows just how screwed up my life was.

wishing all young children of Australia a happy life and continue learning stuff at those stunning ages.

Bak Choy and More Hobos

2010-02-07T06:59:00.002+08:00

More attacks from hobos. I'm just walking through the supermarket and she has to ask me to screw myself after i ignore her by walking past her. sigh~ its a sad mixture of pity and repulse that i have for them.

on a happier note, i made my best bak choy dish ever last night, along with some fried chicken. can't remember when was the last time i enjoyed my food, ever. mmmm~

Funny Animation

2010-01-20T00:05:00.001+08:00

HOBO

2010-01-17T21:32:00.002+08:00

Homeless people. Everywhere in almost every country. Even here, on train platforms.

Just this evening i was on my way home from Caleb's place. and who should show up on the busy platform but a 'homeless' (im amusing) person harassing everybody.

not just any hobo, but a hobo with THE look. THE ultimate look that no hobo asking for help/money should give.

Its.

The.

I'm so sick of this world and you people-look.

Ain't ever seen a glare like hers hahaha. yes a HER. a female hobo. lol. that sounds like a joke by itself, im so bad tee hee~

The she-hobo: "Hey you, can you spare me some change?"

Scared Korean chick: "......"

The she-hobo: "Can you speak?" <---(Seriously, i could smell the sarcasm dripping...)

Scared Korean chick: *mumbling*

The she-hobo: "Good."

The she-hobo: "And you, can you spare me some change?"

Me: "Sorry, no."

The she-hobo: *scoffs* "Whatever." *walks off*

Scuse me? Whatever? WHATEVER?

Is that the attitude you should use with ur potential donaters? Hmm?? Is it cuz i'm not a local or what? And, i also happened to have kindly donated before. Assuming u guys are all a collective or something.

Ffs... Cynical hobos. Can my train rides home get any more interestin?

2000 and TEN

2010-01-01T09:00:00.004+08:00

Well people, it's finally here.

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2010!!!!!!!!!

Wishing you all a very happy and prosperous new year this year. As for me, I had the most entertaining dinner in a Japanese restaurant on New Year's Eve, then headed to the Etihad Stadium near the Southern Cross station.

It was AWESHUM.

They were holding some kinda party in the stadium where you had to wear white to get in. So we were standing there staying outta the rain near the entrance watching all kinds of 'white' people go in. There were definitely internationals around in the crowd, but the fact that they were all wearing white made them blend in perfectly you could hardly tell apart anyone.

People in white wearing singlets, angel wings, crowns, boots, stockings and various other types of dressings. There were people who put on silver and the funniest thing was that in our group there were the two girls wearing BLACK.

kinda funny.

Other interesting exhibits included a somebody in an Imperial Stormtrooper makeshift costume, another somebody in a gauze bandaged mummy outfit, other semi-nekkid or 3 quarter-ed nekkid people running all around in the wet New Year's Eve.

Phew, what a rain!

We even saw some drug person getting arrested by the police who were vastly outnumbered, but still held an imposing presence. They had sniffer dogs posted around too, checking ur crotch for any hidden powders. lol.

AFTER THAAAAAAAAAATTTTTT,

we headed to Flinders St.

Which.

was.

PACKED.

its to be expected but still it was a very enjoyable experience, getting squashed against the train doors, fighting for air to breathe, room to cover ur vital parts, scolding assholes who were smoking weed in the train, making way for distraught couples who got raped, molested, assaulted, etc.

At the Federation Square they were holding some kinda aboriginal performance in the stadium. After that they had the countdown (naturally) and fireworks (again, naturally). too bad the whole area around and in Flinders was packed to bursting. So we could only see the fireworks shooting up but couldnt see em exploding in the wet night sky.

NOOOOOOO.

after that it became something of a riot as people rushed backed to the trains to head back home quick before the havoc really started like people screaming themselves hoarse over a happy new year and people rioting just cuz its..... new year? haha.

here're some of the pics and vids of the memorable last night of 2009.

The Dogxx is in Melbourne!!!

2009-12-21T20:52:00.003+08:00

guess who's here???

It's da DogXX aka TommyZai aka XiongXiong has landed in MELBOURNE!!!!!!

woot woot!!!

thanks for coming ol buddy. hope you have a memorable time here and we're going sightseeing all over melbourne no worries whoo hoo!!!!

Oh and Paranormal Activity?

O.O <------ (a ghost face. use ur imagination)

pretty good. the fear factor shot up over the days EXPO-NEN-TIA-LLY. must watch. probably one of the best horrors I've watched.

2009-12-15T08:11:00.002+08:00

So, last Saturday i went with Xander and the newly-wedded Mr. and Mrs. Tan ^^ to Aya Japanese restaurant somewhere in Armadale (The High St. is misleadingly long).

Worse part is, although it had traditional tatami mats and waddya call those Japanese board-sliding thingys, i didn't realise that there actually was a depression in the floor where you could put your feet until my feet were so cramped from sitting crossed leg at a low table.

That aside, the sashimi and soft-shelled crab were awesome! not to mention these freaking-fresh oysters below here:

can you believe it, these fellas are actually propped up on pillar of salt.

the main sashimi platter. looks impressive but as usual there were more decos than eatables LOL.

In these lamentations...

2009-12-12T14:13:00.000+08:00

Now I've heard there was a secret chord

That David played, and it pleased the Lord

But you don't really care for music, do you?

It goes like this

The fourth, the fifth

The minor fall, the major lift

The baffled king composing Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Your faith was strong but you needed proof

You saw her bathing on the roof

Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you

She tied you

To a kitchen chair

She broke your throne, and she cut your hair

And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

Baby I have been here before

I know this room, I've walked this floor

I used to live alone before I knew you.

I've seen your flag on the marble arch

Love is not a victory march

It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

There was a time you let me know

What's really going on below

But now you never show it to me, do you?

And remember when I moved in you

The holy dove was moving too

And every breath we drew was Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

You say I took the name in vain

I don't even know the name

But if I did, well really, what's it to you?

There's a blaze of light

In every word

It doesn't matter which you heard

The holy or the broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

I did my best, it wasn't much

I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch

I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you

And even though

It all went wrong

I'll stand before the Lord of Song

With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Hallelujah

And then another joker came along....

2009-12-10T14:49:00.003+08:00

NEW HOUSEMATE. Since i've had so many different housemates moving in and out already, i'm automatically wary of new people. Always wishing for a clean housemate who does his/her part for the house. So. INTERESTING Vietnamese kid. probably about 18 or 19. let's see some of the things that make him so 'fascinating'.

This Vietnamese guy named Thai/Tai:
-always uses the biggest pots and pans and NEVER cleans up after himself.
-loves to listen to music and singing loudly and out-of-tune-ly whenever he cooks.
-speaks poor English, but he's learning, he's learning he says.
-left the rice cooker on Warm mode half the whole night. (luckily i went down for a snack)
-'accidentally' switched his laptop's dvd region the whole 6 times and he's stuck with a permanent one now. "I dihdn't hnow that it would be permanent if hyou changed it..." "Did you see the message that your DVD region would be permanently set if you change it all the 6 times?" "Hoh, but i dihdn't hnow.... i dihdn't hnow..." "......"
-has a very nice MacBookPro which is now stuck with a permanent DVD region....
-has to have a full clothes rack when he hangs his clothes.
-loves cheap grilled chicken, eats it nearly every night....
-has never heard/known about spices....
-leaves the toilet light on in the daytime when he goes out to the uni....
-washes his shoes in the WASHING MACHINE.
-watches The Simpsons, possibly to improve his Heenglish.
-is a die hard fan of Naruto, and loves Hakhatshuhi....

don't want to diss him any more... he's already pretty unpopular with my other housemate Yash, even though he has only been here for less than 2 weeks? ahaha.

P.S. Tommy Zai is coming over to visit soon!!!

Life & Death

2009-12-07T17:46:00.002+08:00

Funny how much u can take life for granted then when somebody you know/knew passes on we jump into the *life is precious* mode. =\

An old primary schoolmate of mine, from Lick Hung in good ol Subang, Malaysia, has just passed on recently. He got hit by a lightning strike while near a basketball court. Life is short and precious and freak accidents like these are seriously unfair... one second everything's normal as it should be, the next moment an innocent life has just been extinguished.

its a good reminder to us to remember through the bad times and the good times that no matter what we go through or when we do, life is ultimately the most precious thing you have. Don't waste it. RIP Tan Han Yin.

Don't leave your door open tonight... and tie ur blankets down too

2009-12-06T16:30:00.001+08:00

you can almost see my eyebrows wagging at u with an expectant look haha.

It's just a business trip... then what's with all these shopping bags??

2009-12-05T22:22:00.002+08:00

Headed out to the city again like the bored guy i am. Managed to pick up some stuff my family sent me via colleagues at work who were travelling to Melbourne. Can't believe i found the hotel in record time, with some pre-help from Google Maps.

Still looking for a job, still very bored and lifeless, still eating very scantily, maybe i should've went home? haha. once i have a job time will go by much faster and 'productively'.

Oh yea a coupla friends of mine just got married whoo hoo! Congrats to you 2 Mr. & Mrs. Tan. Will post some pics later on when there's the special dinner at some traditional Japanese restaurant for us friends.

More BBQs...

2009-12-01T20:54:00.006+08:00

2009-11-02T19:52:00.002+08:00

Triple 0.

Know what that stands for??

In Australia it stands for......

AMBULANZA!!!!

yep. the ambulance arrived at my place at 10.30pm just this night. no i'm not fatally wounded or chronically ill, but my friend was close to it.

our new friend and housemate started having severe chest pains which were abnormal and not usual so he phoned the ambulance for help. and whaddya know a good ol Australian ambulance turned up at my place in the middle of the night. what a day! after one paper in the morning too!

well my friend survived he's doing better now, luckily it wasn't anything serious. but it was still fun to see the paramedics coming to make sure he's alright. phew!!

Sleep

2009-10-20T21:37:00.002+08:00

Every night i return to my chambers, where i am untouched from the world, cut away from all contact. I awaken in my other life, where happiness and despair mingle, scrabbling to get a hold of me. Where such unknown elements exists, i fear and hope. Avoidance is futile, attendance is compulsory. What should i do?

Whose birthday?

2009-10-07T10:02:00.007+08:00

finally can upload this in the library instead of the crappy connection back at home. so here it is. the birthday of someone last week. haha

p.s. thanks a lot guys. for the wishes and cake and company and great time.

Being single could just be the nicest thing ever.

2009-09-25T21:08:00.003+08:00

To all you single and unmotivated people out there, don't be disappointed! God has a purpose for everyone of us out there and sooner or later, you'll find that special someone out there who just could be looking for you too. =) so smile and have a great day! for further references, please relate to the following project video. ^^

awww... mixing romance and sci-fi?

Looking out my window...

Plain ass lame...

2009-08-12T08:17:00.003+08:00

my friend just told us this stupid joke the other day.

there was this kid walking down the side of the road when he saw a red man, you know the type who really look like they're having a heart attack, all red faced and chubby or something.

anyway, this red man was wearing only a coat and slippers. the moment the kid was close enough, the red man took off his coat and HE WAS WEARING NOTHING UNDERNEATH!!! the kid was so shocked he ran across the road away from the scary red man, and was ran over by a car and died.

so what's the moral of the story???

think carefully. it actually does have a moral.

DON'T CROSS THE ROAD WHEN THE RED MAN FLASHES!!!

Downtown again

2009-08-08T17:04:00.004+08:00

Hopped off to the city again yesterday. we travelled all the way to the city by train and walked the rest of the way to....

the Queen Victoria Market.

Actually its just a market. There's no 'no royalty aren't allowed' or stuff like that. haha. its just like any other market back home, only thing is the prices are all a little bit diff. and the things sold are whoo man. fun.

we walked around, me and jen and the guys for a while, checking out fun stuff. the sweets place was really interesting. they sell chocolate truffles and caramels and white and dark chocolate and OH GOSH so many more. turkish delights, pastries, jam tarts, doughnuts. all the call signs are new to me wheee! and the vendors they attract ppl in the custom Aussie way instead of the noisy and random fish market types u get back at home.

Ex: O'er here, mate! You won't get fresh meat like this any where else, nope not at all just step right here for yer fresh meat!

and ppl just ask u how you're doing all the time hahaha. and you'll have to say something like:

ah i'm fine, thank ye. hmm coulja gimme some of those loin chops wouldka? praps bout 1 kilo? thank ye mate, have a nice day.

xD i'm so enjoying the culture here.

and gosh at the poultry and fish section. hahahaha. first time i've enjoyed being in a market. the fish and meat types they have there is... gosh i forgot them all they're just so many. Flakes. deep sea bass. cod. salmon (naturally) clams oysters calamris crayfish surloin chops schnitzels t bones breast fillets patties meatballs. the terminology is so fun to learn. haha. had a good time there. we bought so much for friday's bbq. boy was it good.

we cooked all the beef and marinated chicken, onion, truffles, oysters, sausages and other plentiful stuff out in the open on a cold dark winter's night. couldn't be more fun. :D they even had a custom bbq uh whaddya call it custom bbq grill? bbq pit? guess its a pit. haha. a night to remember.

yea baby! church!

2009-08-02T14:33:00.002+08:00

went off to planetshakers today, morning service. words cant do much explanation here, so yeah. lol. after that went off for lunch with the gang. huge gang. over 30+ ppl. beats our s5s4 group anytime. lol. and guess who was there... my heng dai wilson tan. = =

go church also can bump into you. whee!

what else? finally got my mobile broadband. now everything is settled. all that has to be done now is see if i can upgrade all current amenities. cheers!

Wot Da Phuck?!

2009-07-30T12:54:00.002+08:00

last night on the train back from sj's place, this heated couple were shouting and swearing to each other in classic Aussie style:

Girl: #$^*& Crud &^%*(&@?! You're a )(&!
Boy: yea yea nyah nyah nyah (hand yapping gesture)
Girl: yea whatevah. just shut up. JUST SHUT UP.

Girl: Don't you evah, Evah, EVAH, ask me to do that again for you. bla bla bla drugs at home. keep doing that and people are gonna lose respect for you, asshole.

interesting.

and then after a few minutes of silence the girl went and hugged the guy who look bored and uncaring then started begging for money. LOL. i gave her 50 pence for a good entertainment performance. although she said she needed the money for a taxi. when we're already on a train. loser. xD

New life, new start

2009-07-20T11:40:00.003+08:00

FIRST lecture today, whee. my data analysis lecture talked really interestingly, kinda with a russian accent or something. still halfway in holiday mode, so really blur finding classes and lectures and sorting out stuff. and bloody hell, they dont give u any free credit in ur library card!! (?!?!!@#$%^&) lol.

PICS!

2009-07-16T11:36:00.007+08:00

apparently shyan jen's com has a better card reader than mine. so here are the long awaited pics. for now. later on there'll be more.

Orientation?

2009-07-14T11:01:00.002+08:00

skipped monday's orientation, went for today's orientation. met lots of interesting ppl there. there was a guy named Thai who was from Vietnam (???), a girl who was a Buddhist but wore a cross (??????), lots of ppl from singapore and msia and lots of other ang mos. there were even some ppl from Latvia and France and Sri Lanka and bla bla bla other countries. made a few new friends, hope they're not the type that u only know during the first few days of orientation....

finally got my house. haven't finalized it yet but gonna sign the lease soon, once i double check everything and i've got the cash in my account. hehe feels so good saying that. then i can stop troubling shyan jen and lance. haven't met kar mern or jonathan yet, will see them later this week hopefully.

Some somebodys are missing me...

2009-07-10T17:48:00.002+08:00

well, been nearly a week i've been here. living in australia is very diff, and im not only talking about the weather. the weather is actually an improvement. nice and cold, chilly at night and in the morns. afternoon its actually comfortable.

shyan jen's been a jam. living at his place is great, since he takes good care of me and brings me out a lot to eat and meet friends. cooking is a whole nother tricky business. hehe. these guys hardly eat at home and mostly go out nearby or to the city to eat.... none other than.... asian food. lol. i've been eating a lot of subway too.

finding a place to live is even tougher, since ur actually interested in finding a room and accomodation for yourself, which means u have to consider so much stuff like bedding, transportation, convenience stores close by, distance to uni, ease of transport, utility bills and such. so far no luck and i must have trekked halfway all over melbourne by now, at the rate i'm walking to inspect houses.

wilson and michael have found their acc now, lucky them. kar mern was even luckier and got a decent place to stay. she arrived slightly earlier than me, probably 1 or 2 days. drastic measures have to be taken, therefore tomo i'm either gonna do my last house scouting, or get stuck with the uh tiny room above the store in renovation. lol. love u all who love me all too. and even if u dont love me i still love u all and miss u all. what the heck am i writing. the chill must be affecting my typing.

This is not goodbye.

2009-07-04T00:39:00.002+08:00

Ironic that the latest post has to be done right before i'm leaving for australia. yep you heard it right. you either know or dont know. i'm leaving for Australia tomo, 4th of July, US hari merdeka. funny.

feel both excited and nervous. cuz there's so much new things to experience, to do yourself, learning to be independent etc. and all the last minute packing isn't like going nearby for a holiday either. this is practically gonna be my survival luggage for a couple of years. haha.

went through a huge 'last time i'll do this' phase these last few days. went to a mamak for the last time, had a shit in my toilet for the last time, last night for the last time, went online at home for the last time, went out with my friends for the last time. sigh. what to do. what the heck. i'm even blogging at home for the last time. am i all set for Australia? dunno.

think i'm all set. got loads of new stuff. and old stuff. winter wear. laptop. clothing. books. documents. visa. bla bla. the next time i return to my blog i'll be in foreign territory wearing foreign clothing in a foreign house or apartment getting chilled in a foreign weather. gonna miss you all. you guys were all the best. all of you. =) sucks that i can't go to the langkawi trip. sucks that Thomas is coming back at the exact same time i'm going there. sucks that i couldn't do more for Sam and Nick be4 leaving. sucks that farewell had to be agonizing. sucks that all i gave Mel was that.

thank you for the memories and the times we had. here we go. a new step in a new direction.

The day when i can even come to a 20th of him...

2009-05-25T21:17:00.001+08:00

seems very easy, but wait till you play it yourself, without the accompaniments. =) some piano geniuses are just that unreachable...

awesome movie review here. Angels and Demons is just plain awesome. and the best part was the beginning. the malay subtitles for the movie title was :

Antara Malaikat dan Jin. fomcroflmao

awesome music awesome plot and although its obviously different from the book, its worth the allowance for the chances in the movie. =) a must try for anyone.

Good old Mr. Leonard. Bumped into him this morning at the mamak stall in sunway coll. i sure miss his trademark under-the-eyebrows glare at you and a further mmmmnnnnggggghhhhh grunt in varying pitches, depending on his mood. hahaha. random. again.

A Joke

2009-05-04T17:51:00.001+08:00

son: dad, did you have the internet and msn during your time?

dad: (using computer) no son, we didn't.

son: so how did you give notes to each other??

dad: we gave notes to each other.

Whee, life is changing

2009-04-27T17:54:00.001+08:00

well its confirmed. i'm going to australia. just got my offer letter and all the tiring details. sigh. i feel both happy and sad. for many reasons. hang on for me thomas, i'll be there in a few months time. ^^

Light and Darkness

2009-04-16T18:40:00.002+08:00

here's a funny thing to think about:

there's light.

and there's darkness.

they are complete opposites are they not?

and yet darkness is actually an absence of light.

which means when there's no light, there's darkness.

therefore, in itself darkness cannot exist by itself.

yet since darkness only exists when there is light,

why does it exist only when there is no light?

when it needs light to exist??

*scratches head*

Genting trip

2009-04-14T18:26:00.011+08:00

lousy internet connection. sorry guys, but there'll be mostly pics and not words here.

p.s. naturally i took the pics. :P

I met a Boomer straight out from Left 4 Dead... BLEAUURRGHHHHHH!!!

2009-04-08T11:16:00.002+08:00

I never thought i'd meet a real live boomer. By now, i'm gonna assume that the majority of people who read this blog have played Left 4 Dead or at least heard of it before. - -

today while i was rushing for my law assignment (due tomo, ARGHHHH!!!), not to mention the accounting assignment due friday (due friday, AAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHH!!!), skit practice tonight( AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA---------*sore throat*), and law tutorial due tomo morning (.................), this big dood sat down opposite me at the table (luckily there was that steel divider between us).

Ok, nothing wrong with that. Big guys sit down opposite you anywhere.

But after a while, he started giving out subtle hints that he was not any normal big dood.

A few secs after he sat down, he burped. Still, nothing wrong. Big guys burp a lot. right? lol.

Then he burped again. and again.

and again.

then he farted.

or maybe it was his throat.

then he cleared his throat.

burped again.

a verrrrrryyyyyyyy wet burp.

normally the burps we hear are quite er dry and clean (our good ol Max, for ex.). but there's also the wet types. ughh..

THIS GUY. KEPT BURPING AND SNORTING AND URRLLLPPP-ING AND WHATEVER WAS GOING ON INSIDE HIM WAS ESCAPING HIM BY ANY MEANS.

Hence the new title, boomer boy. He did have a big stomach too. i'm so definitely sick by now. shouldn't have eaten that kon loh mee this morning. u could almost expect him to BLLLEEEAUURRGHHHH all over himself anytime.

snort snort burrppppp ulppp gulppp snort coughhh *fart* *fart* burppp gulllppppp ullcchhhh !@#$%^&**^$%%^!)&(!*&^^!~$~@~#!!%YQJKBN jwbfqib qf!GEN!GH)E&@BRg38qrt8t865148BGGB87%^#$#&FEBG2G

and all other manner of unhearable horrors.

I jumped up in near-paralyzed fear and leaving my stuff to the mercy of the boomer 3 feet in front of me i ran and ran and ran. MUMMMYYYY!!!!

*maybe i'll just snipe him from a safe distance away.*

**i'll probably skip lunch**.

Censored ing Censors!!!

2009-04-04T12:22:00.002+08:00

Had lots of fun yesterday. Went out with Abas and Jocelyn and some other new friends that i got to know. We went skating with Raymond and his girl then went for a movie. which was by the way, so darn dissapointing.

Not because its a lousy movie, in fact its a crazy psychological thriller. about cops and whether what they do are justified as justice, stuff like that. no it was disappointing because of the stupid censors. oh my gosh. they censored so much of the movie in the end it was as long as a long advertisement on tv. they cut here cut there, the scenes jump and twitch and spasm, even. do they really think censoring the movie is going to do any good? in fact it'll only make people more curious right?? and it was an 18 PL anyway. sad case.

An AXGI-DENT

2009-04-02T10:14:00.002+08:00

my house is in an enclosed area.... fenced and with guards patrolling. about a 500 * 400 sqm area? and what do you know.... for the first time in my life living here... got an accident INSIDE that area.... crazy

got home late last night after skit practice. as i was rounding that corner, i was a car on its side by the side of the road. ah ok. nothing unusual..... wha whaa WHATTTT????!?!! *backtrack!! backtrack!!!* i reversed all the way back to get a better view.

*whistles* now that's something u don't see every day... err night. it was almost 12 by then. and this nice honda civic or city couldn't tell, was lying on its side half on the kerb half on the road. wow. on its side. 90 degrees clockwise if ur car is normally at 0 degrees.

so i went to help out. it was almost dark there. the stupid street light so weak somemore. some neighbors were there. well actually it was a neighbor was there. the rest were some security guards.

so i hung around to see if anyone needed help. the accidentee had long fled the scene i was told. she went back home to get treated for injuries. nothing too serious. yea its a she. luckily her injuries weren't too serious. but quite interesting also. i wanted to see how she climbed out of the passenger window and drop to the ground ^^

so after that the tow truck came. surprisingly quiet somemore. maybe everyone sleeping too nyenyak-ly by then. so we all helped to push the car back to 0 degrees. then the tow truck and co stripped the car of valuables and belongings. then they hooked it up to the tow bar and adjust adjust.....

i must've been there for half an hour. long enough to get bitten by a few hundred mosquitoes and to see bats flying above me. seriously. haha. my place has bats. they damn cute. :P the guards had long pants. T.T

that's about it. didn't hang around to see the finale, didn't wanna seem to keh poh.

crowded Monash workstations...

2009-04-01T15:35:00.002+08:00

man i both love and hate monash. here's the hate part:

right now i'm in the library trying to finish some assignments. and due to the lack of space and to squeeze more coms into that crowded space, there's barely enough maneuver space for anybody. errr. there's this ma lai mui behind me.... sharing a space with her ma lai mui 2 friend.

and OH MY GOSH.

she keeps shoving my chair to the side... - -'' the chairs are the swivel like chairs where u can spin urself 360, 720 degrees round and round while staying stationary.. get it?

sooooooo.........

dunno if she's trying to show off her ample rear volume or what? lol. JUST STOP PUSHING MY CHAIR BEEEEEETTSSHHH!!!!!!!

and please la... don't use so much stifling talcum powder..... sob sobs......

i'm so bad..... sobs...

Snow from the past

2009-03-13T08:12:00.002+08:00

Something interesting but... YESSS!!!! if i go to australia in mid june - july it'll be winter there. oh gosh. snow is kinda monumental to me. i grew up around snow. when i was young. so young. maybe less than half my height now. lil kid. haha. i can remember using this huge yellow shovel and digging myself out to go to kindergarden. muahaha. so with lots of luck, i'll be back in the midst of the white blizzard in a few months time. sniff. sniff.

Nothing to be Said

2009-03-12T21:50:00.003+08:00

well, for those of you who knows what's going on... nothing to say la... i just hope we can continue living our lives to the fullest and be grateful to everything God's given us.

these two videos aren't the official version and the official versions aren't released on youtube. but i tend to think that music is music. doesn't really matter how the mv is. the mv is there just to give extra entertainment. right? makes sense? so i just close my eyes and let the music wash over and through me.

Hilarious... Marketing is fun xD

2009-03-12T21:41:00.001+08:00

today in marketing lecture we learned about advertising. muahaha. its hilarious:

Fuzzy logic

2009-02-25T00:14:00.002+08:00

Everyone's heard of logic right? But then what's fuzzy logic???

I first heard the term from my dad. In truth i still don't know what it means exactly but we call fuzzy logic a situation where any kind of electronics that is faulty or has some problem/error seemingly repair itself? Understand that? In laaaaaaaaame man terms....

The Masheen leepair itself la!!!

kinda something like that. haha. all the stuff in my house is getting old or something. even my internet keeps dc-ing itself every 10 mins. that's why i've been mia again. AND NOW....

i dunno. i'm keeping my fingers and toes crossed. let's hope it'll stay this way so my internet is "fixed" and there goes "fuzzy logic" again. (tension)

well, here's to better electronic services in the future, eh?

2009-01-07T19:50:00.002+08:00

check out these lyrics:

i got tired of waiting,
wondering if you were ever coming around,
my faith in you is fading,
when i met u on the outskirts of town...

and i said: romeo save me
i've been feeling so alone
i keep waiting for you but you never show
is this in my head? i dont know what to think
he kneels to the ground and
pulls out a ring and says

marry me juliet
you'll never have to be alone
i love you and that's all there is to know
i talked to your dad
go pick out a white dress
its a love story, baby just say....
yes......

sweet lyrics or not?? amazing song. taylor swift - love story. new song? or old song by now? still a nice song. =)

Just plain lame

2008-12-18T00:30:00.002+08:00

maybe i've got a horrible sense of humor, but i just laughed until i bruised my stomach after seeing this comic:

Cyanide & Happiness @ Explosm.net

More stuff to talk about

2008-12-16T23:05:00.002+08:00

this kinda job really lets u interact with different types of people. and today i met two guys who had definitely already entered the christmas spirit. haha. they jumped in to our shop and asked for a lamp shade holder which i wasn't sure we had any so i checked the lamp shades and the bulb holders cuz they're all connected and the same stuff normally are together.

but then these two idiots start getting angry and shouting at me and saying stuff like OH U THINK SO?? come here then come here and tell me how it works. so i brought him there and tried to help them out but they got angry and said if u dont have the lamp shade holders then just say it la idiot. then i still tried to help them by asking what kinda lamp shades they wanted but they just stormed out mumbling disgusted threats and saying let's go to a hardware store. errr........... huh?? isn't the one ur in now one?? if not what is it? a kedai runcit, noob? lol. i wouldn't be surprised if they stormed into ace 'hardware store' and got kicked out for misconduct and nonsense.

i feel bad for these kinda people cuz they're lives are all crude and rough. nothing good to look forward to. anyway merry christmas to u 2 goons and hope u had a 'good day'. and screw you and ur lamp shades. muahahaha.

then i went to the bank to drop off some stuff and on the way back some malay dude popped outta nowhere and flashed a watch in the palm of his hand as if he's scared anyone else might see it. he mumbled: shiny rolex?? in some kinda err persuasive tone?? lol. fking funny. no thanks dude no thanks i'm very happy with my nice seiko already and urs is definitely pasar malam quality anyway. ^^

AND THEN another messed up song popped up. they seem to be getting more and more frequent too lol. u all know beyonce's if i was a boy? this time someone else duet-ed in. i wouldn't be surprised if its jay z. = = the dude sang but ur not a boy........and you cant understand..... bloody unexpected and funny i tell u. i couldn't stop laughing (again) like last time with the messed up phone call. the dude went on singing stuff like if i was a girl and everything opposite that beyonce sings. hmmmmmmmmmm

and that's it! better than not writing anything hey? oh yeah almost forgot taipan is a nice place. its always full of friendly people and responsible mpsj officers with their pdas. they even look after our cars by watching over them! what else can u ask for?? hahahaahaa.

So much to blog about

2008-12-15T20:50:00.002+08:00

so this whole weekend i had so much events on. and so much to talk about. and its so hard to sit up here blogging while my mom and sis are downstairs watching money not enough 2. haha. so.

saturday after work i noticed some kinda event happening at the big field opposite amcorp mall near my church. lots of huge spotlights and people double and triple parking everywhere all over the main road and small roads and dirt roads and even in front of people's houses. tsk tsk tsk.... must be some huge event. but all i saw was two spotlights shining past clouds and stuff haha. so after carolling i realised it was some kinda chinese concert while i drove by slowly to figure it out. lol. unfortunately all i could hear was a lot of OHHHHHHHHHHHHH...................... OHHHHohhhhh........... in high tones and low tones high pitches and low pitches and pretty drawn out too. there's chinese music for u. rofl. it was packed to the point where even my church was crowded all around outside. if any of u were there at the concert...... too bad i didn't join. xD

sunday. morning i went for a talk but before that i visited medan's cc again. very sad i know but i got lucky as there was a COD 4 competition going on. oooo. very interesting. the whole front cc was packed with seats and stuff surrounding two teams facing off. there were even photographers. sweat. one team was called X||| and the other team was FFF i think. cant remember. who cares. all that mattered was that they were pros and had their own patented shirts and everything. in the end FFF won... wuu... not that it mattered who won i don't know either team. and they played pretty so so to me.... but i guess that's what u get in the heat of the moment playing with ur team against other pros. not to mention people crowded around ur monitor. they even brought their own mouse pads and headphones and keyboards. hmm...

and then the talk. ooo. interesting. cuz the speaker was someone i know from someone someone else knows. hahaha. not to mention he graduated from heriott watt university too!! wuu~~ jun hau ah..... u can look up to this guy. haha. his name is kwok wai i think. something like that. quite a good talk. all about acturial science and stuff. i went for it cuz its kinda related to accounting and finance which im taking now. so quite interesting. but too bad... i'm still not going acturial... haha.

then at work after that~~ wow what a busy day. and its only the morning. zzz. some wacked up phone call turned up on fly fm in the middle of a song. sweat.... u dont get to hear that often. first u hear a lotta dial tones and numbers being pressed. rofl. the guy went hello? is this fly fm? or something like that. here we go:

dude: hello? flyfm?
music: hands up, put ur hands up....
dude: (some advertising about fly fm myvi troopers and stuff)
music: oh hot damn....
dude: uh.... did i get that right?
music: stick em past the ceiling babe......
dude: is this on? errrrrrr.....
music: hands in the air... air, airr..... ai,airrrr airrrrr.............
dude: ok i'll try again. (repeat fly fm myvi troopers advertisement)
music: ~~~~~~~~
dude: toot..............toot...............toot....................toot...........

freaking funny i tell u. i couldn't stop laughing at work. and it was even funnier with everyone staring at me while i stared at the radio listening for any more phone calls. lol.

and that's~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ it. nothing else much interesting. oh yea be4 i forget, cuz i couldn't get online last night, happy birthday wenchi~~~~~~ couldn't even get in to ur blog to with u... = =

Music and lyrics haha

2008-12-13T23:25:00.002+08:00

omgosh. super songs that give u a high no drug can. haha. a healthy high. support the healthy high way and not the wrong high ness. lame jokes all around.

sorry if they aren't the real mvs. but the important thing is the song right? so who cares bout the mv. ^^

Untitled

2008-12-08T21:48:00.003+08:00

How harsh that hands as crude as these can produce something as tranquil as that.
How unthinkable the act of unholy purity.
For we are but fallers, ever falling in the midst of our illusions.

Experience the peace of the rain when the clouds merge then,
Inhale the gentleness of the wind in places long forgotten,
Watch the ferocity of lightning in dark and gray,
Listen to the sound of silence.

Ever one, never changing, flowing with the rhythm,
Like an unstoppable river, a force of nature,
On top of waves ever rolling and calm equalness,
I see the crossroads of uncertainty.

Right beside the vision of laziness,
I fall guilty to its seduction,
I cannot help but feel sad for myself and the people around me,
We are shadows of ourselves,
Living a life of unworthiness.

And what the crap am i writing,
Perhaps an act of random will,
Or just justifying myself with thoughtless acts,
What am i doing in my progression?
What am i working towards?
What am i doing?

Random-ing.

Communication

2008-12-02T19:38:00.003+08:00

no, not telecommunication. but human interaction. face to face talking, gesturing, signaling bla bla. any way to communicate with other people. but does the receiving side understand us most of the time?

look at me. i mumble a lot and talk through my nose sometimes (so i'm told) so i guess sometimes its hard to understand what im trying to say or even care what im saying. but at my work place, i'm hit with a barrage of miscommunication and bad communication and everything in between the two.

this morning some malay dood strolled in right up to me and mumbled : klopacs. huh?? i stared at him blankly trying to get what he just said. what the heck are klopacs? he had to repeat it a few more times with some crude hand language until i realised he was looking for err CLOTHES PEGS. = = swt betul.

some people cant even communicate properly to the point where they have to use sign language ONLY. cuz people cant understand them whatsoever if they talk. if they're really talking. lol. and even then some really unfortunate people suck at sign language. kesian..... some fella swung his hands around in some oval shape when he was really asking for a garden hose head. what's the connection? then again some old lady had to have 5 of us around her suggesting what she was looking for for 5 mins before we could tell what she wanted. lol.

so communication is really important. especially in the business world where we have to interact with rival companies and our bosses, co-workers, employees and so on. without proper communication we would be kinda like a lost drunk guy. who nobody'll pay attention to after a while. hou sadty wor~~ in thomas and shin yee terms. haha. cheers!

and this stupid cough still isn't going away. damnit.

Work work work..

2008-11-27T10:21:00.002+08:00

Haven't been updating recently... been busy with work. literally takes up my whole day and i normally only come back at night.... hardly have enough time to zzz... then i fell sick the day before... ugh... the usual package... and not a good place to fall sick too... during work. when i got home i just crawled into bed and stayed there. lol.

anyway, results are out tomo. hope we all do well. otherwise... bleh.... oh and bolt and twilight's out. so anybody who wanna watch? next week!!

GSC and More Movies

2008-11-13T22:24:00.004+08:00

ok so today i watched madagascar with some trepidation cuz i'm so sick of the i like to move it move it song. but it was pretty good. minus the song. haha. very classical jokes and makes u roll around shaking with laughter sometimes. but first of all...

TGV SUCKS!!!

GSC ROCKS!!!

here are the reasons why:

1. tgv has crappy seats and theatres
2. gsc sells cheaper movies and has nicer facilities
3. gsc has THX!!
4. tgv doesn't have THX!!!!
5. i got madagascar 2 in gsc THX!!! for 6 bucks while a normal movie at pyramid costs >9 bucks. at least. even with the so called student discounts.
6. gsc has better popcorn. i think.
7. tgv has less variety. example: max complained tgv doesn't show max payne anymore. i went SUMMIT GSC today and guess what. max payne is still being shown. wow.
8. i prefer gsc. wahaha.

and do watch madagascar 2. although i still hate the song. great movie!

Movies Galore

2008-11-11T20:21:00.006+08:00

went to One U with my sweetheart today. =) watched high school musical 3 (HSM 3). typical HSM. superb dance choreography and singing and acting with ur usual high school plot.

haha. and also there's a list of movies that are must-watches!!

The Day The Earth Stood Still

Twilight

Bolt

the day the world stood still is another sci fi i believe from some old movie. it has keanu reeves in it though.... let's see if he can act realistic enough as a robot. still sounds like a mixture of war of the world and the day after tomorrow to me. xD

twilight is just another harry potter or another eragon. Will never be as good as the book but we all watch it anyway just to see our characters in flesh and action. haha. at least Edward Cullen will be acted as the guy who played Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter. Wow he literally rose from the dead in Harry Potter into a vampire. ZOMG! if u get what i mean

bolt is a disney animated movie bout some dogs and cats and hamsters and stuff. it has John Travolta and Miley Cyrus. This is probably Miley's first movie unless ur counting her Hannah Montanas. zzzzz.

i'm so going to watch so many movies before the year ends. cheers!

CLICK trick!!

2008-11-10T20:45:00.005+08:00

last saturday i followed my church friends to a prequel event of our annual youth camp. and it was fun yea!! it was something like a treasure hunt/race thing with challenges and bonus games, stuff like that.

sorry there's no pictures of us in action we were rushing for time and points! haha.

I Smell A Rat...

2008-11-08T00:02:00.004+08:00

ok. so just now at night i went into the kitchen, turned on the light, looked left just to see this cheeky little mouse or rat scuttling away from me into the mess of golf bags and chairs in the corner. horrible betul....

so i grabbed a broom, those plastic types and called my sis down with a wooden pole we found somewhere. i grabbed a flashlight and cautiously, jumpily moved bags and chairs away until the ancient bag where the little rat was hiding was in plain view by itself. shining the light into the bag very slowly, the little critter stared back at me with wide black eyes. aww so cute..... BUT UR NOT SHARING MY HOUSE, LITTLE PEST!!!

i grabbed the pole and jabbed it into the bag and WHEEE!!! out it flew!!! unto the ground!! at our feet!! lots of screaming and squealing on our parts and the mouse' part too. it dived behind a cooler while we formed a perimeter around it.

and now the big part.... i kicked the cooler and THERE IT IS!!! SCUTTLING OVER THE FLOOR!!!! U HAVE NO WHERE TO GO LITTLE RODENT MUAHAHA WE'VE SEALED THE DOORS!!! it raced into a corner but this time there was no where to run with it cornered.

I SLAMMED THE PLASTIC BROOM DOWN ON IT. -miss-

Some are friendly and great people, some are just a pain in the crack

2008-11-07T01:32:00.003+08:00

today went to monash to pick up nina. and since i arrived early i thought i could wait it out till the end of her paper. so i turned off the car engine and waited until i cannot tahan anymore (must be environmentally friendly!) i parked the car at the drop off point and decided to walk in and wait for her at a cooler place. but then the guard who normally stands duty there puts up this meaty hand in my face and says "no sorry u cannot leave an unattended car here. u can wait here in the car for 1,2 hours, can but no people no car sorry."

?!

since when was that rule around??? people used to park there all the time for quick occasions and even some daring ones parked there the whole day. so now i had to wait outside instead with the car. stupid betul. guards are an important element of our safety and they do their job well. but sometimes.... they're just plain annoying with their:

" hostel id pls??"

"eh? where u trying to go?"

"no cannot pass here"

"boy? what u doing here?"

"Boy? No. i said no. No. ok? no. sorry but no. what? ha? oh oh sorry."

but its true also, we've gotta give them some respect that they deserve.

America DECIDES!!!!

2008-11-05T17:22:00.003+08:00

the results are out. Senator Barack Obama is the new president of the United States. congrats to him and America!! and to Senator John McCain too for his efforts and tireless pursuits. and now we see a dawn of something new......

let's see what the future holds for all of us. =)

i must be getting really old...

2008-11-03T20:13:00.003+08:00

well we're all approaching 20 rite? so we're practically getting slightly old. have to be mature from now on. one immature thing i keep doing now is that i keep misplacing my stupid specs.

its not that i need them much in fact i hardly wear them u guys should know i always dangle it on my shirt most of the time. the only times i need em is when i drive and when i see movies or computer or classes. so at home pretty much dont use them much except at com or tv.

so i have to search everywhere from the toilet (don't ask) to the kitchen to all the bedrooms and even on top of the piano (can even be camouflaged there i dunno how the heck how). must be getting old.... like.... someone. hehe. also keeps misplacing her glasses and have to ask us all every few times a day.

well congrats to marketing people!!! marketing is over and now its only econ stats left!! good luck guys!! ALMOST DONE!!!!
