How I spent my valentines

2008-02-18T00:31:00.002+08:00

Urrmm...
I know this lil festive has passed looong ago

But my blog
(if it can be called as such anymore due to the lack of updates...)

is whining piteously for an updates in its state of near death...

So, I'm proud to blog,

My 19th SAD (singles appreciation day) and counting.
(though I swear by Resolution 15 next year no more SADs....)

Anyways~
This year was pretty unexpected,

cause I woke up (yes, very very early morning....=.=)

to this sweet guy (housemate of mine)
knocking on my door and giving everyone roses.

And how did I respond to the niceness?

Three eloquent words....

Uhh...

Okaaaay....

Thank you...(I think this counts as four)

=.=
I was half asleep damnit!!!

I think I scared the poor guy with my lack of response...

How can I tell?
The rose was shaking mightily when he passed it to me...=.=..

I finally figured out(yesterday) which housemate that was;

Sighs, wonder if I should thank the poor guy properly
(and apologise for scaring him...)

yar,
and I got chocolates and an ang pau :D
It ain't too late for CNY, yays!

My resolution

2008-01-20T15:42:00.000+08:00

I know I'm a few days to late to do this..(20 days to be exact)

But I suddenly have this urge to add in another resolution (pain in the ass) to my endless list (12) of resolution (to be broken later).

13. When thou feels the need to:

a. Be anti-social
b. Self-pity (sulk more like it)
c. Depressed
d. Lonely (because I'm being anti social again)
e. Wanting

thou shall move thy lazy bum to work on that which thou has procrastinated (because there's always something which I've procrastinated on) to avoid doing the above...

Since..

2008-01-11T17:45:00.000+08:00

my blog is a tad bit dead~

I'll update about something random...

I played ping pong for the first time today!

I ain't half bad *grins* (for my first time)

I learnt to serve and hit the ball!
and I played a match!

11-4
Guess who lost the game?
~~Ernest and I(doubles)~~

Pictures next time...
(if I remember..)

I've got five dogs

2007-12-27T21:37:00.000+08:00

and all of them are so bloody useless....=.=

we fed them;
we bathe them;
we housed them;

and when robbers come in the night what do they do?

Sleep soundly~

Sheesh~
Maybe we should stop feeding them to teach them a lesson =.=

Yupz, my house nearly got robbed last night.

NEARLY
doesn't mean it was.

Grandma woke up when she heard the NEIGHBOUR'S dogs barking....
(notice all my 5 dogs did even bat an eyelash...=.=)

she saw them and they ran...

Don't worry, I'm fine~
Was happily watching prince of tennis on my laptop while they were attempting to prise the back door open below~

2007-12-19T23:09:00.000+08:00

Okay Michi~

I changed the layout for you~

after I promised you~

months ago...

:P

I hope your happy :D
I went through much effort (fufufu~)

Comments are much appreciated ---->

(That is if you still visit my blog......)

MCR concert

2007-12-12T02:19:00.001+08:00

..........was fucking awesome!!!!!!!!!!

Hell,

It RAINED the whole damn way~

I couldn't even see the stage cause we were too far away and I was vertically challenged..=.=

There were maniacs stomping in front of me aka trampling on my foot~

but

it
was
fucking
AWESOME!
(forgive me, it's my first concert :P)

They were great (minus the uber long wait we had before they appeared on the stage)

We sang along (cause I knew most of the lyrics anyways :P)

AND

I bought this MCR shirt...yay~~~~~~~~~~~

It was great to be able to know nearly all the lyrics they were about to sing and sing along with them...

Sadly they started off with "This is how I disappear" which was not one of my favs..:(

but they ended it off with "Famous last words" Now THAT'S a great song...

and the second last song (which we all thought was their last) "Cancer" :-

(try to spot my horrible voice singing in there)

Sadly, I've got a few videos but they all turned out bad...
the only one that could be heard properly was "Cancer" (i think cause it's the least loud). whoopee for my sucky cam which takes sucky videos...=.=

Great songs, great songs:-

Gerard Way sang "House of the Rising Sun" and we were all baffled cause it wasn't in their album...

But in the concert, they sang

I Don't Love You
Dead!
This is How I Disappear
The Sharpest Lives
House of Wolves
Cancer
The Black Parade
Mama
Sleep
Teenagers
Famous Last Words

and, two from their previous album "Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge"
Helena
I'm Not Okay (I Promise)

They didn't sing Disenchanted and The End. Sad. I'd like to hear "The End"

There was a guitar solo from Mikey Way (I think :P) and Gerard sang a new song...

Desert something...=.=
Bad memory :P

And, here's the shirt I bought~ (so proud of it :D):-
took it off the MCR site.

I'll take a picture wearing it one day (if I remember...)

And, I got my new IC
and my mom doesn't remember she insisted that I make a new one...=.=
until later which she said, "Yar, you wanted a new IC cause you always complain the picture on it is ugly"

Which is true (in my opinion)
much more satisfied with this new one...

My blog is so outdated...

2007-11-23T21:57:00.000+08:00

it gives out-of-date a new meaning.....

Don't blame me, my life is so uninteresting I have nothing to blog about~

Therefore, when something interesting happens, aka the engineering fair:-
Seniors from CE, some CE juniors and mostly ME juniors along with our lecturers.

So, let's start with my project :-The Automated Parking Lot Management System
As you can see, we have Keegan passionately explaining the schematics of our project to Praveen. Let's have a close-up of the project shall we?
Ugly ain't it? We made it, and designed it and built it :P.
It's to help motorist locate vacant parking lot by use of active signs (aka the grey display board) and sensors (the red lights).
Since there's a board at the entrance that shows you exactly where the empty parking lots in the parking lot area is, you don't have to waste time going round to find it. Ingenious ain't it? (It was my idea :P)

Next, we have the project that had the most strategic location at the fair:-

The CPU cooling system

Damn nice looking right? (That's cause you can't see the close ups :P) So, this design, was to install in 3 (or was it 4..=.=) fans to eliminate the dead zones found in the CPU unit etc, etc...(not my project so I don't know much bout it :P)

AND, to your left, you have the big, brown, ugly monstrosity:-
The Solar Updraft Tower
Notice the lil black square thingy next to the green button?
Well, those lazy ppl decided to program the system to read out explanations to visitors..=.=
Press 1, for Jun King's sexy voice, press 2 for more of Jun King's sexy voice, press 3, for Jun King's ultra sexy voice and if you press all the buttons at once,

Ari's sexy voice:

"FUCK YOU STOP PRESSING ALL THE BUTTONS!"
(jking jking)

So I've got no pics of the team members cause they all hulk behind the big, ~~ugly~~ project of theirs. (except one from Edward. I'll post more pics when I get them from Joanne)

Next, to your right, ANOTHER MONSTROSITY!

Hmm...the resident doctor and Joanne with their Laundry Rack Project:-
And a few models for the clothes :P
Then, to your other right, you see a waste of space....=.=...
Oppss...I meant the Zaven and the Blind Spot (True Sight) Project..
Waste of space right...?

Then, we have the CE's project..which is to only operate a popcorn machine...

And they lure visitors with..
free popcorn, though it's mostly us ME's that take it..

And, finally, the main event and most important thing in this whole post :P

The camwhoring sessions~
First two male camwhores I've ever known....=.=

Plus in one female camwhore..

You'll get more camwhoring pics, when I get the photos from Joanne...
fufuufu~

Uh owh..

2007-11-04T11:58:00.000+08:00

Due to my very very big mouth, I got myself stuck in a predicament

...now i'm kinda "in charge" of designing and making the shirt for engineering.....

....great....

not that i'm complaining......

Jayhan did these, will upload charles later
Improved after a suggestion from Ernest
Then Jayhan said we should space it more..
Left's the front (collared) right's the back, personally, i prefer the second...:P

Engineering T-shirt

2007-10-29T23:34:00.000+08:00

This is what I spent the better part of my afternoon doing.
In case you can't read the itsy bitsy teeny weeny words on top, they say:

If you don't understand Chinese, tilt your head to the right:
Kudos to anyone who can figure this picture out!
I await your answer in my cbox!

My second design

Front

Think you’re smart?

That's the front
Answer this if you can...
it's a combination of the Boltzmann transport equation for electrons and crystal structures...

This is the back:

We’re smarter…

= 1/24 Σ(ng)_ine²rinG

hahaha...urrmm..right..i think i was too free :P..

For all those who are wondering

2007-10-15T19:18:00.000+08:00

Why I was missing during the weekends...(that is if any of you even noticed...=.=)..?

That was because I went Penang.

And my wonderful, owh so wonderful ~~Please note the sarcasm~~ trip started off with the most amazing, glaring and obvious premonition (meant to smack you flat in the face).

I woke up late...

To

Be

Specific...

I was suppose to meet Fran's friend at 6.45

Was suppose to wake up at 5.50

(please note these numbers are all in AM and not PM!)

supposedly I woke up at 6.51
(because I set the damn alarm 1 hour too late!)

Is this not a sign from the heavens above?

Nah, pure coincidence...

So in my rush to throw everything I need into my luggage bag (I did not even bring my pillow because I was panicking too much to try and cram it in...T_T); drag my bag and my sleeping bag down...

I locked myself out.

or more specifically...

I locked my key in the room...

you know, at this point of time, any sane and reasonable human, will throw his/her hands up and shout,

"Glory Hallelujah! I give up!!!"

Owh but not this ~~insane woman~~ human!

No, I knocked on Myat's room (more like bang down his door, with any disregard for the sleeping occupant inside...) and asked to borrow his keys to open the main door.

Luckily, I made it in time (Because smart people like them had the foresight to make sure everyone arrive earlier than needed due to people like me...)

It was only on the train that I discovered a few key and important points:-

1. This is a camp and thus the sleeping bag...
which means nice hard concrete floor to enjoy =)

2. This trips ends on Tuesday and not Monday..
therefore I'll have to skip my IT test on Tuesday..
sure it's fine and dandy to skip tests,
Hell, I don't enjoy tests...
But it's in my assessment, which means = very very important...

3. We will be staying in the mainland, not the island..
We can't go out of the school area aka there goes my shopping plans T_T

What I should have done at that time:-
Hoist my bags,
Salute them
and say, "See ya people! I shall merrily march back to Subang!"
and hightail outta there with my luggage in tow...

And here, I must profusely apologise to the people of ICG for the inconvenience caused by me.
Well, long story short, because of my test on Tuesday, I had to hike a bus back to KL without the group. ~~and give them a bloody headache in the making~~

And here, I must thank Myat for keeping my keys
Due to my idiocy of locking my keys in...

All and all, the camp was not bad
~~minus the cold morning showers and hard concrete floors...~~
There were great workshops and I kinda got to met up with Audrey and Fran.

Last but not least!
GREAT PICTURES!
This was where we stayed, gorgeous ain't it?

The group I was attached to:
Supposedly ~~Francesca Institute of Technology~~ under Francesca, but let's just call it INTEC...

The place is just gorgeous!
Don't I just ~~RUIN~~ add to the gorgeousness?
Okay, enough of me...you'll get more of my camwhoring when I get the pics from Francesca...

Professional Design Skills

2007-10-08T15:42:00.000+08:00

Was going through my pendrive to do my Lab assignment when I saw this folder - CNC Lab. Then I remembered that Joven gave me the pictures he took that day.

Let's have a look at our daily class of Professional Design Skills:

Introducing, our lecturer, Mushtak:

Mushtak indulging a little slacking off in the class:

Chee Ming's group:

Fuyoh! Working hard on their CPU cooling design project!

And what's my group doing?

Kononnya working hard on our parking lot model..=.=

Then we got a lil bored so we decided to play around:

the gayness in action - Keegan "grabbing" Bryan's butt

the violence in action - attacking Edward (What's Jun King doing anyways...=.=)

Attempting to smoke in class..
without a lighter..
Let's see if this works =.=
Success

Shafiq getting ready to leave (with Jeffrey's bag..=.=)
The coolest thing about the class is, you can walk out and leave early under the pretense the you're doing your project and the lecturer doesn't care...

Joven - Chee Ming's group. Still working hard on their design, I see....

What are the rest of us doing?
Playing choo choo train with chairs =.=

Trying to look hardworking but they're actually talking crap...

Poking people in the back....
And finally, stretching after a day's "hard" work..
Owh, and let's not forget cleaning up the evidence after playing too much...=.=
(That's paint that they accidentally spilled on the floor....)

And now you know what we do everyday in our Design class....
Nothing....
=D

Jealous yet?

2007-10-04T16:49:00.000+08:00

You know, I said I wouldn't update...(much..)

So I lied...

A little..

Anyways. :P :P Life is great!
Thank you Ian Low Yin Hoe (not to be confused with Ian Tang =.=)
And Simon too, having to listen to an old wives' tale...

Hahahahahaha. A bit crazy =.=...
Note to self: Must thank him properly...

Due to a rock...

2007-09-30T19:15:00.000+08:00

called..

laziness

this blog will be officially proclaimed...

inactive

(because I'm too damn lazy to update..)

And the moral of this story is.....

2007-09-25T16:22:00.000+08:00

I fell yesterday...

and landed on my chin...

hard...

Lost: RM 285 on medical bill
Gained: A new scar to my addition of scars

Humiliation of wearing the big bandage under my chin?

priceless....
=.=

What have we learned boys and girls?
Never run in the bedroom especially when you have wet feet and slippery tiles
(Not even when your alarm is ringing with the embarrassing tone of 'girlfriend - avril lavigne'. ~~my scar will twinge painfully every time I hear that song =.=~~

My room

2007-09-21T20:20:00.000+08:00

Okay, I know this is long overdued but being late is better than never right? =P

At least I didn't claim that I was too lazy to try =P

The first this you see when you open the door:
The ACTUAL closet (please note, there are two fake/spare closets lying round...)

My personal balcony =D (Door can't be opened though cause I don't have the key, so it's there for decoration and as an extra large window)

My study/trash table (aka the table where I throw everything)

Another closet. The door out on the right.

After the door is my bed.

It's back!

2007-09-21T19:31:00.000+08:00

I'm typing this post from, believe it or not,

MY OWN LAPTOP!

YAY! It's finally back! Please don't ever leave me again my sweet laptop T_T...

It looks no different from the same old laptop that I had.

In fact, the same error(blue screen) that I sent for repair popped up again when I installed my anti-virus

.....
=.=

I'll not sent it for repair!
I'll wait and see if it happens again.
Thee shalt not part me from my beloved:)

This post, is dedicated to:

The journey of getting my laptop back =D.

Nicky drove me to get my laptop, even though we both didn't know the way...
We just winged it...

Basically, we thought it was at shah alam but it turns out it was at Glenmarie. Luckily I read the address first...=.=

No. 4, Jalan Saudagar U1/16, Seksyen U1, Hicom Glenmarie Park. <- The address in case anyone with a Toshiba laptop needs to find it...

So, okay! We got into Glenmarie, time to find Seksyen U1...
And we spotted U1/50! Lucky!

So that must mean that U1/16 was righteee at the end of the road. (Mighty far end of the road it seems...=.=).

But we didn't give up! We kept driving and the signs were decreasing,
U1/48
U1/47
U1/46
U1/45
U1/46...

.....

I thought it was a mistake of my eyes, getting old you know...some more I wear specs...

Until...
I saw the Porsche building up ahead
The same building we saw,

on the way in!
(Smart of us, we turned on big circle...=.=)

So there we were thinking we were in big shit because when we got to the main road, up ahead was a traffic light,

with a T-junction...

Nicky picked left...
Which turned out to bad!

We went on and on and didn't see any signs that said U1.
Oh my God.......T_T

In desperation, I called Matt,
as I was on the phone, Nicky suddenly said,

Isn't that U1/24...

Glory Hallelujah! We're saved!

until we turned in and instead of the numbers going to U1/23,

it was U1/28 XD!

T_T

Nevermind! We persevered! We went on and saw,

U1/20!
Saved!

So we went onwards till we reached the end and saw U1/14 on the left and U1/15 and the right...

where the heck is U1/16? I was half expecting it to pop in the middle of the road. (Because there is only one main road and it branches out to the sections)

This time, we went right...
because logically speaking...

if left is 14, right is 15 then right right is 16, right?

WRONG!

omg! I seriously think the people who made the roads flunked maths!
we saw,

U1/21!

wtf?

By this point, Nicky was...
no, no noooooooooo.......!!!
T_T
He really gave up hope edi.

Until I saw, like a bright shining beacon,

U1/16...

A

Dear god!
Luckily, U1/16 was just down the road...

=.=

Ipod

2007-09-16T16:50:00.000+08:00

Thanks.

For saving me.

The ceiling looks more interesting now,

and depression don't seem so alone no more.

So, how's class?

2007-09-14T19:23:00.000+08:00

Seemings as that is quite the common question floating around, I should give you a breakdown of my classes.

Materials:
Apparently the toughest class around because the more than half of the senior batch failed their finals. My theory? I think it's the lecturer's fault. Why? Because this was my first class on a sunny Tuesday morning and I slept/dozed off. (Frankly nearly 1/4 of the class fell asleep so I'm not the only one that thinks he's boring)

Our lecturer:
Mr Tham. Teaches us IT classes and Materials and uses a microphone in LT3 and CL1.

Dr. Ting once said to our class after nearly tripping over the microphone lying around, "The LT3 is such a small Lecture Theatre, who would need a microphone anyways?"

Sam was whispering down the row to my left,

MR THAM! MR THAM!

I had to control my snort of laughter.

Design and Professional Skill:
Taught by Mushtak who, on the first day, said: The ground rules are, if you are to call me,

SIR
or
MR

I'll minus one mark from your finals!

By the second class, I unwittingly said, "Thank you, sir" and as I was about to walk out of the CNC Lab, he suddenly turned, pointed to me, and said:

MINUS ONE MARK!

whoops.

Design's cool 'cause we get to walk in and out of class for reasons of 'working on our project' and he doesn't mind. We have to submit in our project design memo by this coming monday. My group's working on a Parking Lot Sensor thingy. Later~ lar, very malas to blog about that.

IT Lab:
Again, we had Mr Tham for our lecturer. On the first day of class, I was a very very very VERY naughty girl. The first thing I did when I got to his class was to switch on the computer, and...

MSNED!

I then chatted and blogged and suddenly, Keegan says, let's play...

CHOR TAI TI!

So, Keegan, Jeffrey, Isaac and I played chor tai ti while Mr Tham lectured in front. =D

Statics:
Dr. Singram. An Indian graduate with pHD. Also comes free with a very very thick accent. Another class I slept/dozed. Not to say that he's boring. On the contrary, Statics is quite interesting. Sadly, as I was trying hard to concentrate, my mind get blanks.

Literally,

BLANKS

I mean, I was trying to pay attention and decipher his accent when my mind suddenly translated

fasfdhksfa

aka, my mind couldn't translate that part because his accent was too thick. So, I had to chuck away a couple of parts of his lectures because I couldn't translate it. But I got used to it, after a few lectures.

Fluid Flow:
Another Indian lecturer, Dr. Praveen with another thick accent. However, his accent was not as bad as Dr. Singram. That was, until, he said:

THE YALE, YAM AND YAN

Instantly, I looked up from my notes (Along with a few other students) and thought...

Where's the yam?

Apparently he meant,

The L, M and N.

Owh, wow...

Advance Mathematics:
Dr. Ting is another funny lecturer. He orignated from Sarawak (Sibu I think) and cracks jokes in his class all the time. Especially about his wife and woman in general.

I nudged Chee Ming, "You know, for a guy who talks about other wives alot, I think he's not satisfied with his."

Chee Ming, "Most likely.."

So there we go people, My classes in general.

P.S. I will post my room pictures next time. It's long overdued =.=
P.P.S. About the BBQ I promised, will post when I get the pics...

Chor Tai Ti

2007-09-13T10:22:00.000+08:00

chor tai ti and msn during class.

XD.

For top left: Jun King, Keegan, Isaac and I. My fellow Chor Tai Ti buddies

I'm amazing.

Had BBQ yesterday. Will post, AFTER class =D

I hope to get the pictures soon.

Owh, and blogging too apparently...

See you

2007-09-10T19:04:00.000+08:00

Phew, this blog is turning pretty inactive.
Funny, considering now that I'm in uni, I'd have loads to blog about than when I'm rotting away at home.

Apparently the former and the latter switched places. =.=

Last night I went to Nicky's farewell party (except that he's still here and not farewell-ing). Therefore, a little correction is in order; Nicky's advance farewell party.

I'm the prefect example of punctuality!

I came half and hour earlier!

Everyone came an hour LATER!

Food was great, company was greater XD. It was like a girls' night out crapping session (except the company was guys and the crapping was dota =.=)

Let's not forget the perfunctory thank yous:-
Thanks Juin Nik, for the ride to Nicky's house and the hangers XD and the ~~porn~~ lessons. (Domino Harvey, nice show :D) Owh, and the Subway and dessert.

Thanks Sing Ming for the ride home. Hope your car's okay =D and to be my bullying post.

Thanks Sing Kwan for the pervy lessons (They go far in life :D)

Wrn, you came late =.=, but, :D

Felix, amazing songs.

Keat, ohh~ho~ho~ho...I know you weakness (and you know mine too =.=)

Nicky, for trying to suffocate me. Great food. XD. Will be seeing you. BECAUSE I WANT MY HANGERS BACK

Sadly, I lost touch with my inner blogness because. I BROUGHT A DAMN CAMERA BUT NEVER TOOK PICTURES. yea, bloody smart, the camera is just there to make my bag heavier...

Will REMEMBER to take pictures at Wrn's farewell.

My Resolution

2007-09-06T10:46:00.000+08:00

After being unexpectedly struck my my conscience, I decided to print out my resolution and paste in front of my study desk so as I am constantly reminded of it.

And I had the bloody shock of my life when i discovered that I broke roughly 9 out of 12 of my resolutions.

Currently, it's the third day of the start of my new term and I'm blogging while the teacher teacher is teaching in front. Resolution 3 anyone? (Did I mention I'm chatting in the process too?)

Well~ I'll go home and study. HARD.
....I hope...

Things to study today:
Fluid Flow and C Programming

Orientation

2007-09-04T14:52:00.000+08:00

I had my orientation yesterday. Boy, what a crap way to start.
~~Apparently there was a miscommunication so I was told to go at 10 when it actually starts at 9~~

0805 - My alarm rang. I turned it off and went back to sleep
0825 - I finally draged my lazy butt outta bad. Went to bathe.
0840-ish - Finished bathing, saw clock and thought. 'Dear God, I have one hour plus left!'
0850 - Stare at the floor of my bedroom zoning out.
0902 - Keegan called and asked where I am.
Me: At home.
Keegan: Orientation starting
Me:*#@&#@#$%&! *Grabs the nearest pair of shoes and runs out of the house*

Luckily, I arrived with time to spare.

The orientation was great! Well, the second half anyways cause we ended up playing a game made by the students.

At first it was sorta lame and time wasting. Abuthen, the real test came.

Are you an engineer?
In short, they gave us an egg, chopsticks, straws and rubberbands and told us to make sure our egg survived a drop from the first floor.

My group:
Myat, Daniel, Farhan, Johnny and I (Keegan unofficially)

Lemme just tell ya.
If you employed us to design a build a building,
Be prepared for the building to

COLLAPSE!

Basically, our idea was a bit stupid/smart and weird

We encased the egg in two layers of balloon. Firstly was air (contributed by Keegan till he was red in the face) The second layer was water to absorb the shock.

The two balloons would be suspended inside a cubic frame made by chopsticks.
The idea was for the frame to take the main fall and the water to absorbed the leftover shock.

Impressive indeed isn't it?
Everyone thought so, judging by the way they crowded around our group.

EVEN MORE IMPRESSIVE WHEN WE MADE A MESS OF WATER, EGG AND BALLOON =.=

I suppose it would work if it were a metal frame welded together and the egg wrapped in duct tape instead of rafia string.

Bored.

2007-09-03T17:12:00.000+08:00

I've sunked to the bottom of the pit of boredom. To the extent that I'm currently blogging, without a blog! That's right, this entry is(was) on a sheet of examination paper, written in hand and read by no one. (Now maybe.)

Hopefully I'll remember to blog this entry. (I did =.=)

Well, when I got to KL, like the evil little person I am, I took advantage of my dad's presence (and credit card) to do a little shopping...

Suffice to say, I sorta broke resolution 4 ~~I bought a blouse and a pair of capris~~ BUT. It could be worse. (At least I didn't drag my father to Miss Selfridge, I think he'd faint XD)

While shopping, I noticed one thing in particular. Most girls are overly dressed! (or perhaps I'm under dressed =.=) All this points to one big, glary, obvious thing.

I'm
Missing
A
Damn
Blouse!

So after scounting around, I've come to another obvious and disheartening conclusion. The unfeminine-ness of my wardrobe is not because of my lack of blouse but my lack of colours. (or more specifically anything not black)

Yes fellow friends, while everyone looked nice in their multitude of colurs, I looked like a walking mourner (or perhaps a black tiang) with my black ensemble.

NO! nononono

As a desperate measure I shall add in another resolution to my new term resolution.

12. THOU SHALT ADD BRIGHT COLOURS TO YOUR WARDROBE

But this breaks resolution 4 and 5!! What shall I do?

A few to note..

2007-08-31T15:32:00.000+08:00

First off, there's a little change in my blog and if anyone has a good power of observation (or sharp eyes) he/she will spot it. =D

And finally, I'm going to Subang tomorrow. Term starts on Monday. Keegan Francis Khoo, you better be my classmate!

I've finished packing (or so I have thought) and the total weight of my luggage is a shocking, tremendous, amount of....

20 kg.

Well, that ain't half bad considering my last luggage was ~~50 ++ kg~~ when I came back to Kuching. Though I do have a sinking suspicion that when I return next year, the weight will miraculously double. =.=

On the note, I've seriously no idea why but I'm super blur today. Like run into walls kinda blur. Which is even possible (but I've yet to try it). I feel like sleeping and generally being a pig the whole day. Not a good sign when you're halfway packing since you tend to miss things in your blurness. Speaking of which, I just remembered I have to do something...toodles~

Obituary

2007-08-30T16:06:00.000+08:00

n. pl. o·bit·u·ar·ies
A published notice of a death, sometimes with a brief biography of the deceased.

My dog is dying, not dead.
She'll be dead by tomorrow if I can predict it.

She's a ragamuffin mongrel that doesn't really belongs to me.
Technically, she's my neighbor's dog's pup. But since my neighbor's dog stays, eats, sleeps and bathes at my place, consequently, so does she.
She might as well belong to us. (Even has a cage of her own).

She's dying because she's contracted some doggy disease (bloody shit and foamy puke).
She looks pitiful, I hope death is swift.

Her name is Brownie because we never got around to name her properly (I wasn't there that time so I didn't think of that name). Cute as a pup, not so cute as a nearly-adult.

How I shall miss ye dearly for the 2 months I've known you.
Farewell dog,

My...

NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTION

No, I've not gone cracked. I know exactly what's the date today, ~~1st of January 2008~~ 25th of August 2008.

No, I do not consider 31st of August 2008 as a so-called New Year (God forbid, I'm not that patriotic)

So, all-in-all, I think I made a mistake in my phrasing.

~~NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTION~~

NEW TERM RESOLUTION:

1. THOU SHALT NOT BE A PROCRASTINATOR! (be more responsible!)
2. THOU SHALT STUDY HARD (aka consistent studying)
3. THOU SHALT PAY ATTENTION IN CLASS AND NOT DAYDREAM OR (god forbid!)
FALL ASLEEP!
4. THOU SHALT CUT DOWN ON SHOPPING!
5. THOU SHALT SAVE MONEY AND NOT BE TEMPTED BY THOSE PWETTY SHINY THINGS
6. THOU SHALT STOP WHINING/COMPLAINING AND GENERALLY BEING A PAIN IN THE ASS!
7. THOU SHALT NOT FALL INTO DEPRESSIONS
8. THOU SHALT NOT BITCH ABOUT ANYONE BEHIND THEIR BACKS
9. THOU SHALT MAKE MORE FRIENDS
10. THOU SHALT LOSE WEIGHT
11. THOU SHALT CUT DOWN ON CHOCOLATE AND SNACKING

Should I ever violate my resolution feel free to ~~spank~~ smack me. (albeit gently)

Shoplifter...

2007-08-23T13:59:00.000+08:00

Do I have like "shoplifter" stamped on my forehead somewhere that I didn't notice? -.-

Seriously...

Do I?
Don't be shy...you can tell...

Today I went to the haberdashery shop to take a look at a couple of buttons and beads and this guy kept following me (obviously -.-). Owh sure~ I could stuff a couple-a buttons down my jeans and no one will be the wiser (=.=) ~~Or perhaps it could be the fact that I'm totting around my phone and my pants don't look like they hold any wallet~~

So the obvious-duh guy was trying to make his presence obvious
and the oblivious-blur girl (aka me) was trying to make her face oblivious-blur

Which kinda fed the guy up =D
Cause he asked what I was looking for...

In Mandarin

BIG MISTAKE

I gave him the blur look~
and said...button...

He gave me the EVEN MORE blur look~
XD

I pointed to the nearest button

He: BLUUUUR~

Then I said...I'm looking for a packet of THIS *holds up a button*

He: Bluuuur~

My second attempt was in broken Mandarin (which I'm sure I wonked it up somewhere cause it sure as hell doesn't sound right in my ears =.=) and he was kinda stuck in the packet (cause I couldn't translate that XD)

So I gave it a couple-a tries before my genius brain realised that I should say pau (which is packet in Teochew).

To which the guy went: ooooo~ kulung/gulung (don't know)

After I asked for the price, size and etc...I thought, 'Hmm...quite reasonable...maybe I should buy it..' To which I realised...

I have no money
XD

(I think that's why I'm easily labeled shoplifter XD)

Who walks into a shop without money anyways? Sheesh~

(I had my walking atm nearby actually. =P)

evil grin

2007-08-21T23:30:00.000+08:00

ohhh~fufufufufu....

So here I am, sitting and grinning like the cat that got the canary...

because, quite frankly...

I did get the canary

*smirks evilly*

Got my laptop back today, whee~hoo~

Hence I settled down, cracked my knuckles a bit (after finishing fate/stay night - I must say, quite the anime =D) and decided to fill my laptop with junk (cause I like it junky and messy - feels like my room XD).

So there I was, innocently waiting for my mozilla firefox to finish downloading and signing on to msn when suddenly....

KA-BOOOOOM!

(Well...not really to that extent..) -.-

Wonders of wonders...this pops up...

OHHH~HOOO~HOOO~HOOO~HOOO

audrey-the-wise has so wisely decided that THIS TIME (after the don't know how many freaking times...) to grab the camera and shoot some SOLID PROOF!

So yes, ladies and gents, my laptop after going in for surgery to the extent that they need to brainwash it (sobs) crashed after....

Got it back: 2.30pm on the 21/08/07

Crashed: 11.30pm on the 21/08/07

9 hours! (just a few minutes shy of midnight.....bravo..-.-)

Thus, after restarting the laptop and sending an error report, this pops up

Owh by the way, I conveniently forgot to mention...

The same thing happened when I bought this damn thing...

Sighs, laptop, looks like we'll be parting ways again...

(I'm still grinning evilly)

2007-08-21T16:14:00.000+08:00

You know, I think somewhere in my previous post, I had said, "Tomorrow will be a better day..."

Well...
Honestly,
I can say...
That is purely crack..

If it's one thing I've learned, life can be quite the bitch (especially when she's PMS-ing)
Ya know, life dishes out shit for a reason
So as people like me stay down and don't try to get up...

Myat,
you
are
utterly
RIGHT

never again will i doubt the almighty Myat.

2007-08-21T14:51:00.000+08:00

One thing about this blog, it's always been about me, me and ME; so I'm going to try something a little different today.

I just wanna give credit where credit is due and I wanna thank this great lady because I love her songs. It's been with me when I'm going through hard times and at times her lyrics are reflective of what I feel and think. This song:-

Tomorrow - Avril Lavigne

And I wanna believe you,
When you tell me that it'll be ok,
Ya I try to believe you,
But I don't...

When you say that it's gonna be,
It always turns out to be a different way,
I try to believe you,
Not today, today, today, today, today...

Chorus:
I...
don't know how I'll feel,
tomorrow, tomorrow,
and I..
don't know what to say,
tomorrow, tomorrow
Is a different day

It's always been up to you,
Let's turn it around,
It's up to me,
I'm gonna do what I have to do,
just don't..

Gimme a little time(yeah),
Leave me alone a little while,
Maybe it's not too late,
not today, today, today, today, today...

Chorus:
I..
don't know how I'll feel,
tomorrow, tomorrow,
And I..
don't know what to say,
tomorrow, tomorrow
Is a different day

Hey yeah yeah, hey yeah yeah,
and I know I'm not ready,
Hey yeah yeah, hey yeah yeah,
maybe tomorrow
Hey yeah yeah, hey yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah,
I'm not ready,
Hey yeah yeah, hey yeah yeah,
no no i'm not ready,

And I wanna believe you,
When you tell me that it'll be ok,
Yeah I try to believe you,
Not today, today, today, today, today...

Tomorrow may change,
May be a better day.

~~~~~~End~~~~~~

Tomorrow may be a different day - she's got that right.
Crap may happen today, tomorrow or the day after.
Crap may happen today but not tomorrow. So don't be sad today, because tomorrow may be a better day..

Haiz~

Betcha...

2007-08-19T14:57:00.000+08:00

Never see me driving, huh, huh?

Behold! My awesome skill and prowess!
P.S. I can laugh while I drive to! (How awesome is that?)

On the side note, in 12 days I SHALL BE P NO MORE!

~~P for Poor~~ is now ~~L for Learned!~~~ whatever comes after P :P

Freak me out..

2007-08-18T14:43:00.000+08:00

Urgh!
Ya know what...
Kuching is just plain WEIRD!

Okay, so I was grocery shopping with my mom today and this freaking security guard kept following me around!
The worst part is~
He's not even those old paranoid geezers. He was quite young (don't know, didn't get a good look) and he kept following me around! T_T

Owh yea, sure, I'm jz totting around a handphone and my jeans don't look like they hold any wallet but that DOESN'T MEAN MY WALKING ATM IS NOT WALKING AROUND! Besides, I JUST WANNA BUY INDOMEE! T_T Is that so bad? (Just cause I got craving for Indomee) It's not as if I can stuff a whole bunch of Indomee down my shirt or pants. (Sure the little buldge there can be mistaken for my big tummy and all but sheesh lar wei~)

It was just plain freaky because when I go down this aisle, he'd go down the aisle through the other end. When I wander to the back, he'd wander to the back. When I go back and forth, he'd go back and forth. The worst part is, he's trying to be inconspicuous (yea right, inconspicuous enough that I noticed =.=)

In the end I decided to stick to my walking atm (because who in the world would want to shoplift next to your mom?!)

Sadly I succumbed to temptation and bought a snack; by the time I reached home, 2 out of the 6 packs were missing aka somewhere in the black hole that is my stomach. T_T. Save me!

More pictures...

2007-08-14T00:07:00.000+08:00

As requested by Chern Lyan, I've decided to post more pictures. (No pics of myself this time! I'm soooo shy ::blushes::..oh~hoo~hoo~hoo)

Today our victim was Tao because it was cheap! (Not that it mattered because we succumbed to temptation and ordered something expensive which tasted like crap for me and heaven for Eugenie because she ordered the much tastier drink)

The fountain at Tao without flash as oppose to the one above.

The fountain with flash but with Eugenie's fingers in the way =.= . So this is more like a picture of Eugenie's fingers. Why the heck do I keep taking pictures of the damn fountain? It was right in front of us...

Lantern, courtesy of Eugenie

Lanterns, courtesy of me. They were right above us.

Sadly, there will be no humans(unless you consider part of Eugenie's fingers) for you humans to make fun and point at because a certain human has decided she needs to lose weight and thus, this calls for some exercise. =.=

Anywhoo~~ might try either the Office or Blah,blah, blah next time.

Honestly I tell you, I come back Kuching only to visit these emo-ish lounges for crapping sessions. Ya know, I probably should rate those places..Tee Hee...

Sheesh

2007-08-13T18:03:00.000+08:00

My grandmother went MIA. Geez that old lady.

At precisely 1612 (Or so-so lar...) She called and say I'm coming home now. Frankly, "I'm coming home now" doesn't seem like such a bad thing if it weren't for the fact that:
a) She has no house key so how the feck does she get into the house? That's right, I'm suppose to be the guard dog. (Arf, arf)
b) She doesn't have a handphone (God forbid she wouldn't even recognise one if she sees it) and therefore I have no way of knowing when she has reached the house
c) The freaking doorbell DOES NOT WORK (urgh, can't my father get off his lazy butt and fix it for once?)
d) Coming home aka coming from my uncle's house which is as near as from Taylor's to Sunway and she's a 90 ++ Is she planning to walk the whole way?(Helloooo, just because she used to be young doesn't mean she's young and agile now).
e) I NEED TO SHOWER to get ready to go out for a girls' night out with Eugenie but I don't dare to in case she reaches the house when I'm showering.

So there I was sitting like there's a crab in my pants because I kept jumping up and down to rush down and check if she reached the house every 10 minutes.

By 1630 or so I was starting to panic

By 1643 I had to report to my sergent aka my mom that my grandma had planned to walk home from god knows how far and had not shown up.

By 1720-ish it started raining, heavily. So by then I was like, 'Ah! What the heck! I don't give a damn!' and I finally went for my shower.

By 1802 I called my mom and she goes "Owh, I'm picking your grandmother..."

WTF?! Sheesh lar....
I'll never worry for your safety again. Too much stress and grey hairs and not worth my time...

Lousy fate

2007-08-07T20:58:00.000+08:00

Owh.My.God.

I meet Ben today.

Okay, not meet as per say, more like saw (God forbid I'd freak out if I really had to talk to him) To be truthful, I didn't even notice the guy, and when I did, I didn't even recognise him...=.=
I think my brain has permanently blotched out his face; adding to the fact that I've blocked him on my msn, and deleted off his phone number, I'd say I've done a pretty good job in erasing his existence. (Crap! I didn't delete his number! Note to self: Must delete evil number)

In case yer all are wondering who Ben is,
actually....
none of you(any of my avid readers...) would know anyways~~
except for Chern Lyan (and Therese but I doubt she reads this blog..)

So, anywhoo...the worst of worst luck had to be that my PARENTS recognised him (I swear that was one hell of a bad dinner because I kept pretending I don't remember the guy and my mom kept asking...Haiz)

Got to go sacrifice a chicken and pray to whatever deity that like to make people's lives miserable to spare mine and HOPEFULLY he doesn't recognise me (due to the fact that I was owh-so-kind last week and decided to unblock a few of my contacts) and msn or whatever.

On the brighter note, he doesn't give me the icky feeling anymore (thank goodness...)

Lazeeeeee

2007-08-06T16:17:00.000+08:00

So I lied about my two posts per day (shoot me, =P). Yea well, when you hit the lazies of lazy, you begin to understand what lazy means (whatever da heck I just said) Anyways, since I have to entertain you lowly mortals with my daily blogging (ah, one mortal b*bi too-ohh~ho~ho~ho~:D), I had to drag my lazy ass out of bed and decided not to do any crapping today (thinking what to crap takes up too much brain power...lazeee). So, how to entertain people without actually putting in too much effort....hmmm..? Nah, I'll just let you enjoy pictures of moi (less effort of typing and a picture can paint a thousand words...)

Okay, we went to a bar, had a couple of drinks and got smashed - or so we looked. Since I was the self appointed driver, I did NOT want to drink and later drive ~~Because I still have the ugly red P screaming "I'M A P! I'M A P!"~~
Love the decor though - amoebar/lounge (except it was more bar than lounge)

So we went bing! (Again....yes Juin, we played bingo again...)

Mmmmm...nice decor and nice atmosphere. Very classy and emo-looking without the emoness. Perfect for Bingo =P. ~~Unless you count the emo/crap talking between Eugenie and I~~

Okay, that's me.....
OMFG! what the heck am I doing with a sinfully rich Ice blended chocolate T_T ~~I looked like I gained weight just by holding it and the gained-weight look is still there after I put it down~~
Note to self: Throw out all the chocolates in the house T_T

Eugenie aka fellow ~~gossiper~~ crap-talking buddy.

And a little bonus...
Eugenie, Xu Vin and I outside Coffee Bean
P.S. Something is wrong with this picture...spot it if you can...

And thus concludes this session of trying to entertain my fellow bloggers and the anonymous few ~~babi-s;not inclusive of myself~~ (nyahahahhaah...I can strikeout :P). Hope you have fun..time to go back to lazytard land...

Dinner with friends

2007-07-30T02:36:00.000+08:00

Today (well, several hours ago today - you get the point) my parents ditched me in favour of their dinner with friends (serious). They just went and said, "Tonight you're not eating dinner with us so you sendiri cari makan." (Geez, parents...) ~~Actually they gave me a choice between eating with them and their friends and me and my friends and I said, "With them old farts?! No way!"~~ So pitiful moi called up Eugenie and then she called up Xu Vin (wish I could have said Xu Vin called up Nicole - Nicole I can't believe your Deathly Hallows is more important than spending quality time with friends T_T, I'm crushed =P).

So we went to have dinner....
At all places to go...
KFC
Why? Owh, we just wanted to see the 'Owh, this is soooooo finger lickin' good expression on Eugenie's face' Keke...

That is of course we had a little window shopping before eating (must walk around to get rid of the fat that is sure to come!)
And I emphasize on WINDOW not the shopping (because cheapskates like us don't buy anything so it's technically not considered shopping =P)

So yada, yada, yada (I'm not going to blog bout how I ate my burger, thank you very much) and after sending Xu Vin home Eugenie and I went to The Living Room for drinks and talk.

AND
being the avid and professional blogger I am, the moment my butt settled on the cushions, I whipped out my camera from my conveniently 'big bag of everything ladies need and carry around' and started snapping pictures (which I might have annoyed the patrons there)

Ah, pretty floaty lights complete with a fake ~~real~~ imprisoned frog. Anyways, no one wants to see floaty light....where are the people??

Owh lookie, Eugenie with floaty lights at the background. Pretty dark, ey?
Hah! I've not forgotten to snap a proper picture of her.
That's her, indulging in my blogging madness. She looks like she's ¬.¬ or (=.=)-ing at me...
Yea, see...she has better things to do (like ordering...). Anyways the cushions here are kinda cool. They have all these comfy pillows and bloster and a low table for you.

That's me (looking like a drunk because I blinked...) ~~You know I just realised if I shifted my butt any further back I'd have fallen off the platform...~~

So I had a drink called crazy frog (ironically there was a ~~fake~~ frog croaking in the background like a crazy lunatic). Eugenie had something but due to my bad memory I cannot remember (Sorry people but I'm not going to blog bout the food I eat...)

And we spent a good 2 hours crying over our sad miserable lives.
More specifically we emoed and reminiscenced bout our pathetic lives.
To be truthful.....

So we bitched bout what happened to her in Russia and the juicy melodrama of backstabbing and miserable isolation (real life drama is just so much more interesting) in Russia and I bitched bout my backstabbing and miserable isolation in KL (hmm..we have much in common it seems).

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

To Felix,
I QUIT! I don't want to be your student anymore!
Have no fear, your teaching is fine.
It's....
It's...

THE BLOODY CAMERA! ~~and my shaky hands~~.
I fear I have no future in the photography industry (my camera proves it so and so do my hands) I shall stick to my miserable, boring little engineering future (sobs). Ah, as a little momento for the times we've spent together as teacher and student (to be truthful....you never really taught me...=P)
Much improvement in skill but there's only so much I can do with my camera (and my hands...)

I should confess something....~~theraindropsarefake!~~

Anyways, be prepared to receive my resignation letter in your email. With much regards, your beloved student...

Photos, Flowers and Food

2007-07-28T21:08:00.000+08:00

Dear Felix =P,

As promised I have taken and upload the photos regardless if it's successful or unsuccessful ( I'll leave you to be the judge but I'm highly partial to the latter...) I've taken your advice on the zooming in and out method but it just didn't turn out right. ~~Actually I discovered digital zoom which could give me that nice effect but I only figured it out after my camera no battery.~~ I nearly (Nearly) managed to get the sharp object and an out-of-focus background but that only happened in the second flower - which you can obviously see my shaky hands screwed it up ~~Thank god I'm not a surgeon, imagine me going, "whoops, I accidentally cut your arteries...pardon my shaky hands~~ if I didn't know better I'd say I have Parkinson disease. Anyways, any tips are very much appreciated (particularly on shaky hands).

I like this one a lot, it looks like it's in a field but I can't get the leaves to turn blurry.

This is just plain crap....
Ah, even more crap..
Okay, this would have looked SO much better if my hands would just bloody stop shaking...
Looks like a lotus, ey?
HAHAHAHAHAHA.....obviously, I've demonstrated my skills here so I've nothing to say

On the brighter note, today I ~~experimented~~ attempted cooking....
And out came, voila!

Not bad, ey?
Looks exactly like those seaweed snacks you find in those vegetarian stores.

Anyways, this is actually my second attempt (first attempt was so burnt crisp and shrivelled dry that I threw it away). Pretty good for second attempt...~~except the fact that I didn't cut the dough and fry the snacks...(my mom took over after she saw what I did)~~

Day out...again...

2007-07-21T20:38:00.000+08:00

Due to my inability to resist indulging myself in the delectable seaweed snack I bought last night, I decided that this calls for desperate measures - go swimming with Nicole! Goal? Burn loads of fat gained from binging last night!

So Nicole, Eugenie and I went for our 'girls' day out swimming' (we do this so often it has become a routine) at, as per usual, Stampark.

So, this is Nicole and I, getting ready to swim (yosh! time to burn, burn, burn!). Compliments to Eugenie, our photographer (the non-swimmer/bumming away time person)

This is Nicole, swimming enthusiastically,
Where am I you ask?
That's me, doing god knows what. Why aren't I swimming enthusiastically alongside Nicole (since after all, my ultimate goal is to burn, burn, burn!)? Ha! Take a good look at this.

Tied hair, long earrings, wearing contacts...Nah, I didn't plan to swimming in the first place (lazy bum, aren't I?).

So we decided to end our day with a good, cold and fattening chocolate ice cream
Gyah! All the fat burned is accumulated back again (as if I did any fat burning...)
What a waste of time, we didn't even do a proper crapping session...

So, we tried to salvage the day (and do actual fat burning) by going swinging...IN THE PLAYGROUND!
Nicole and Eugenie, swinging around like a bunch of little cute tots...
Though they may not look like it, they're actually getting acquainted with their inner childhood.
Ahh~ look at the expression of pure bliss and innocence on their ~~19-year-old faces~~ 9-year-old faces.

So, when it came to my turn, I got on the swing, stood there and started swinging...then stopping...What the feck? I look at Eugenie and she looks back at me..

Me: How do you swing?
Eugenie:.......
Eugenie: Swing lar, like how you use the swing in your childhood. You went on swings in your childhood right?
Me: (pause...think...pause) Nope, no swings. My childhood is pretty deprived.
Eugenie: Fine, I'll give you a push (In which I ended up kicking her...SORRY EUGENIE!)

So that's me, shifting around like my bum is hurting because I couldn't get comfortable with the swing.

That's me improved because I'm getting the hang of it..(Nicole says I still look tense)

And that's me, fully graduated from swinging academy. Whoa, look at the streamline, the aerodynamic-ness, the fluidity. I've developed skill and shown awesome prowess...

That is until I did something embarrassing and idiotic (which I shall not mention here) and no pictures were taken that time (thankfully) and I will never do anything that idiot again....(Something to do with my head hanging back, my back to far back and Eugenie coming to the rescue or else I'd end up...muddy...)

Fortunately, I came out of it only a little worse for wear, muddy, dizzy and tired...
so NO
I'm not going swinging with those two again anymore (unless I wear shorts and proper shoes this time =P)

On the bright note, I got my brand spanking new Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows book!
Here's the front cover (it's children's cover because all my other 6 are all children's cover...)

Here's the back cover...

Here's the inside...

And here's the story...
without the story! Ha! Well at least I spoiled the first subtitle, "The Dark Lord Ascending" Wooo...
Michi, see this and eat your heart out. I'm going to read it. Toodles..

KL Trip

2007-07-20T20:51:00.000+08:00

Omfg! I finally found out why my trip to KL is in such a mess! The reason?
My dad's a coward, my mom's a workaholic and I'm a perfectionist.

Okay, from the top.
After the pissing me off episode of: yes, we're going KL; owh wait a minute, we're not. On second thought, yes, we're going and it goes on and on (like changing underwear I tell you, a new one everyday!), I finally got fed up (took me long enough) and straight up asked them, do you plan on going KL?

Scenario :
My dad stared at my mom
My mom stared around
I stared at my phone

Apparently, my dad didn't want to go to KL alone but my mom is just too workaholic to abandon her work for one day so they can't come to a compromise...which leads to all this mess up....

FRICKING HELL!

The solution? I COMPROMISED! So yes, after been the ever so nice person I am, I let both my parents win their little feud and said, "Yes, I'm fine with going on Friday and knowing that everyone will have known their results except me by then..."

Thank god that went well. I'd rather have a heart attack in front of a person from READING my result paper than having a heart attack in from of the phone from LISTENING to my results (at least there will be someone to call the ambulance)

Well, at least I finally get to go OUT and meet PEOPLE and do SOMETHING (damn, I sound really desperate, now I know how my dogs feel cooped up at home...T_T). Yay yay yay yay! Shopping shopping shopping shopping! Finally get to see Nicholas! Yes! Wrnwrn, we need to go out more! And hang out with people....!

Note: If my parents change their minds again, I'll slap them silly!

Day out

2007-07-19T19:11:00.000+08:00

Bowling......for soup? No, not that type of bowling...

Ah, yes...THAT type of bowling, with Ian and Steven.

And I totally wiped the floor with them! Pwned! Beat the socks off! They went like, Waaaah...Keng wei keng wei....with tons of applause.

I had strikes and half-strikes and they had washing the drains. OHO~HO~HO~HO

NOT.

I WISH.T_T T_T T_T...Damn, I got pwned...
Ah, the shame, the shame...
(Technically, they weren't playing fair because they played before. =.= I'm a noob.)
Ah well, according to Ian, it doesn't matter if I do well or not because I'm a girl (is that suppose to be a consolation or and insult? =.=)
Though I can proudly say I managed a couple of half-strikes. (Yay, for me) Which was not so bad considering my level (but pretty bad considering theirs, =.=)
So because I lack testosterone (and a certain male anatomy), I am excused from the shame of losing (by 20 + points - not so bad if I might say so).

Conclusion : I BROKE MY NAIL! (Owh, and I got better at bowling, Hehe) Winner - Steven

Later, we went to play some archery.

Man, I ROCKED! (<- I think this explains it all)
They sucked! :P

I damn pro - Accuracy; consistency; excellent form; Solid hits; Endurance.
They damn suck - INaccurate; INconsistent; Lousy form; Weak hits; Muscle pain (hahahahahahah).

Conclusion : Audrey - 1, Ian - 0, Steven - 1
P.S. I joined archery in form 2 so I had training :P (so, I cheated...big deal...)

Next, Or, more specifically...

The reason?
Audrey - 1, Steven - 1, Ian - 0
Haha! Ian wanted to play daytona because he pwned my ass the last time we played that T_T. So, in order to even up the current score, he asked that we played daytona.
Tough luck Ian, I'm that stupid to pick manual this time. I won! Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeee....

Conclusion: That is why I'm driving the car and you guys are just bumming a ride.
Audrey - 2, Steven - 1, Ian - 0.5 (I'll give you credit for the times you nearly won ;P)

Ahhh~ what a satisfying day today.

I'm Not Okay - My Chemical Romance

2007-07-17T14:52:00.001+08:00

Today is garbage day, they day where MY life officially STINKS

So, in order to celebrate such a momentous occasion, maestro, music please!

P.S. I feel so much better after watching this video

Shopping blues...

2007-07-15T17:13:00.001+08:00

I'm upset.

Someone stole my shirt!

Okay, not stole as per say, more like some warmongering, discount grabbing, shirt stealing FEMALE took it...err..I mean bought it...

Confused? well let's start from the beginning.

Last week I went to MNG, saw two shirts and bought one; big mistake. Since then the other shirt (blouse more like it) has been haunting my every waking moments. I kept thinking should I have bought it, should I have bought it? (for all you ladies out there, when you start thinking things like this, it's a sure sign that you should have bought it and you WANT to buy it).

What brought on this sudden change of mind you might ask?
Well, one day I decided to open my closet (I do open it everyday) and take a good look at my wardrobe and I discovered I'm severely lacking in white shirts! (only one actually). In fact, my whole closet is pretty much...black.
Besides that I find myself missing any nice looking blouse, as in something more feminine instead of those slap-on, casual, BLACK tees. Well, since this particular shirt was looking awfully feminine, I thought 'Hmm...I'd make a nice addition to my closet. One white spot in the sea of black. One nice feminine-ness in all that, not so feminine-ness.'

So, with that in mind, I determinedly marched back to MNG (with my mother in tow of course, =P) to look for THE shirt; and guess what...IT'S GONE! gone, gone GONE! Owh, the horror! THE horror! So, before I started cursing up a storm, I decided to turn the place upside down before I officially proclaimed that all hope was lost (which I felt kinda bad because the salesperson was trying to fold the clothes as fast as I was trashing them). Alas, all hope IS gone apparently. There's not even a single M or L (I'd even settle for those...I think...), what more to say S, T_T *sobs*!

I shall go and wallow in my misery and curse my idiocy.

P.S. Please note that this post is purely BS. I'm not wallowing in my misery (a bit), I'm not angsting my ass off (slighty) and I'm not peeved. (much - I'll kill the female that took my shirt...)

Dancing lessons

2007-07-13T22:08:00.000+08:00

Well...., that went...well.
So after strapping on my shoes (yes, they actually have special shoes for dancing) the first thing the instructor asked me to do was stand on my tiptoes with my back straight and bend my knees while tiptoeing and, WHOOPS...there I went, wobbling like mad. Haha! Looks like I have terrible balance T_T.

These are my shoes and they're special not because they're glittery and all but because they have some soft base apparently which are suitable for dance floors.

The one thing that I kept getting wrong was the POSTURE (shows that I slouch a lot). Waltz dancers have this crazy concept that the Lady must bend like she's attempting to break her back and tilt her chin up like she's looking down her nose (or down on you). Or, I could be the fact that I have lousy posture and I look down a lot so I felt like my back is breaking and my neck is aching from holding my chin up.

DO NOT READ THIS IF YOU DON'T WANT TO BORE YOURSELF TO DEATH!
Note: The pictures came from google and I do not claim it to be mine.

I started first with the box step.

Then I learned the left closed change

And following that, the natural turn
Okay, this looks a wee bit complicated so I'll explain. Essentially, this shows a left turn which is similar to natural turn but using the other foot (they call it reverse turn), so I'm actually doing a right turn (can't find the picture). So, it's my left foot back, body turns right slightly and you move your right foot the the side while doing a 3/8 turn to your body. You end it with bringing your left to your right and a full turn of the body. You continue (not shown in picture) with a right foot forward, body facing to the right, then your left foot to the side as you do a 1/4 turn of you body and you end with your right foot close to your left foot (confusing I know).

Next we have the whisk!

And then the chasse from Promenade Position

And then...something else which I don't know the name...
So that's my first waltz lesson, which went pretty well in a manner of speaking...

CONGRATS

2007-07-13T11:34:00.000+08:00

CONGRATULATIONS TO MY SISTER!
YOU ARE NOW OFFICIALLY AN UNEMPLOYED BUM! (okay, that didn't come out right - I seriously hope she doesn't read this blog...)
Well, just so you know, you've stepped from the world of funky teenagers to the boring world of adults so you should get a job! (part time doesn't count)

Anyways, congratulations because you're free from books, studying and tests! (mostly anyways)
No more having to attend classes (not that you have much)
No more having to hand in assignments (that's a lot)
No more having to cram for tests
No more having to sit for tests

and hello...

Job Hunting
Long hours of work
Boring paperwork
Lame office jokes

And by the end of the day, you get a nice fat paycheck! (which you can spend on me...okaaaay, I'm joking, no need to start cursing at me...)
Well, anyways, since I don't have a picture of you, I'd put a nice chimpanzee (cause Felix did that to his sibling) but, I'm not that mean (plus you'll probably kill me =D).

On the brighter note, I shall be having my dancing classes today. Later. Will update bout that..later..

Driving

2007-07-12T15:59:00.000+08:00

Ahhh~~ apparently I haven't been blogging for a long time (Considering the rate I'm blogging this is quite a long time, keke). Anyways, I'm sure I'm forgiven (because no one reads my blog, T_T, I think...) because, a) I'm just too damn lazy! b) My life is just too boring that I have nothing to say (currently anyways).

So today,
I actually drove my dad to school cause I had to go and pick up my 1119 cert (believe it or not but after 2 years, it's still not here!). Which means I'm the driver, which means my dad is sitting next to me while I drive, which means no driving like a madwoman anymore, owh feck!
Not to say that I drive like a madwoman but...
Basically, I'd like to drive
1) With one hand on the steering wheel and another on my lap cause I'm too bloody lazy to use both hands =P
2) Speed, drive in the fast lane and...well speed when I see green light
3) Curse up a storm when I drive - bad, bad habit, I know but you can't blame me when you see assholes left, right and center (myself inclusive...tee hee..)
4) Brake suddenly (that is a bad habit which I must weed out actually)
5) Change radio stations (T_T, I couldn't sing in the car...not that I do that often, I just do...)
6) Ahh~~ do the cool one hand turning thing (hehe...I love to do that cause it's cool..)
So, with my dad there, I basically had to drive properly (not that I don't drive properly but, yea, you get the point)
So anyways, I was pretty distracted when I was driving the whole way cause I had this inner commentary going on inside my head, the one where I go like, ah fricking hell! stupid bastard, bloody asshole...blah, blah, blah. So anyways, I had to act like a proper driver in front of my dad, so~ if my sis happens to read this post, hehe, sorry lar (not as if you don't curse at drivers anyways...)

On the bright note (or not so bright note) my dad said, "Aiya, there's no need to get a part time job lar, since you're only staying for such a short while."
Direct translation - Hey, look at me, I'm retired and I spend my time doing nothing. You're on holiday! You should spend your time doing nothing too! Which means I'm pretty free during the holidays. Haiz.

Here's a little bonus (PS I stole this without the owner's permission cause I was just looking round and it kinda interested me)
Free lala~

Sick, sick, sick

2007-07-07T18:24:00.000+08:00

Down with the flu, sore throat, cough, fever and losing voice...whole enchilada...crap..
So basically I haven't been blogging a lot because I'm sick, lazy and moody(sulking and brooding)
Funny thing was, my sickness usually come in a pre-arranged order - sore throat, fever, losing voice, cough and finally flu. The package was kind of screwed up this time, sore throat + flu, fever + sore throat + flu, flu + cough and I'm still waiting for the flu stage to come, cross my fingers and hope I can skip that.

Well, at least I don't sound like a frog anymore (Nicole tells me it's a duck but I don't see much of a difference...) I just hope I don't sound too man (as Kok Shen said once...Haiz).

One sad thing bout getting sick is it's not a good idea to play Zuma while having a sore throat. Note to self: No screaming when you have sore throat even when playing Zuma (even if you do idiotic idiotic mistakes) because your throat will be screaming along with you (the pain!). Zuma had me saying frick (freaking but without the -ing) and feck (thanks to Douglas) a lot last night, along with a few delirious statements and random weirdness (I think it might be the fever that has made me delirious) Thank god it was all in my mind and not me mumbling to myself or I'd have to be certified insane. God I hope I don't mumble to myself in future then I get fever...

Art Journal

2007-07-04T22:20:00.001+08:00

I think my blog is a little bare on pictures (not counting those down there..), so here's a sample of the pet project I'm going to do..

Inspired by Tera-wish.com where i saw my first art journal, I'm going to attempt to create one (for the sake of fun and too free) just like i attempted to create....a few projects which i actually never started doing...

Anyways, a few sample of art journals:

part time job idiocy!

2007-07-04T16:45:00.000+08:00

Whee...what an Idiot (capital I Idiot!) I am! An example of my Idiocy:

phone ringing annoyingly at 10am when I'm sleeping peacefully in bed

Person on the Line: (speaking some chinese crap that I don't understand)

Me: (half awake and totally grumpy that I'm interrupted of my beauty sleep and wants the stupid salesperson to get off the LINE!) I'm sorry I don't speak chinese (I spoke in mandarin actually, notice how retarded that statement sounded?)

(Brain wake up a bit, go..whoops..) I mean, I can only speak a little bit of chinese (In mandarin again...)

Person on the Line: (seems satisfied that I can speak a little goes on prattling chinese bout something something something)

Me: (Super annoyed and just want to get back to SLEEP!) I'm sorry I don't understand what you are saying (In English this time, notice I got smarter)

Person on the Line: ("@%$^%#$" Hangs up the phone due to my Idiocy)

Later in the morning after a hot shower, my brain starts to function properly,

"Hmm...I wonder how that could have gotten my phone number, must be some idiot advertising company, isn't that against privacy rights?"

Then...

"Now who did I give my number to? Let's see, school, friends, hmm...the part time job looking thing......OWH MY FUCKING SHIT!"

And there my friends was me hanging up on my job offer, thank you folks and good night...

2007-07-03T16:52:00.000+08:00

Warning! The following contents may be graphical nature to some (stomach showing. ;P). Viewer discretion is advised.

Today I wanted to take a shower and when I was bout to change out of my clothes I went, Owh, My, tooooot. I'm a half-black/half-white chinese! @#$&*(&@# My "tan" (blackieness) is bloody, obviously, distorted? uneven? Feck, I don't even know the word for it!

Check this out! (Cam whoring my stomach):

Blur (obviously), from me taking the picture with one hand. Looks like someone else's hand because of the colour difference right?

And, it gets even better up the arm!

With flash

Without flash.

Conclusion: I need a new swimsuit. I'm thinking two piece/bikini (i think they're the same thing) or else i'm going to end up as a half-black/half white chinese...

Nottingham

2007-07-02T22:47:00.001+08:00

Okay, this morning, I had a minor heart attack, no worries folks! I'm still alive and healthy enough to blog! Anyways, I had the Nottingham office to thank for that little minor shock. Apparently I decided to call them up and they happily tell me:

Me: I'd like to ask bout the twinning program

Head of Department: Owh, we don't have a twinning program, all our degrees are done locally.

Me: (shit!) Okay...

Head of Department: May I know who you are?

Me: I'm Audrey Tan and actually (sweetly) I sent you and email a week ago asking bout your twinning program but you never reply.

Head of Department: Owh...

Ah, small panic folks, apparently their program is called TRANSFER and not TWINNING!. Stupid idiot people with all the idiot words. I think I'll just go over to KL and settle everything in person which is so much better and faster. Hmm...air asia tickets!

part time job...take two...

2007-07-02T22:35:00.000+08:00

Today, I made a GRAND discovery, most part time, school holiday workers in Kuching are underpaid and overworked - slave labour

Yupz, Kuching is officially a slave labouring city that preys on poor sales assistants, promoters, waitress, cashiers and yes, even baristas.

Slave labour = RM2.50 per hour (yupz, it's two fifty per hour, nope, i didn't type wrongly there)

Jaclyn and I actually went to Coffee Bean first (yes, the Coffee Bean, not some ciplak Coffee Bean) and found that they pay workers RM2.50 (which is actually the highest we've discovered so far...)
We were shocked...did not even begin to cover the we were shocked feeling we had. Then, we went to Body Shop, Tom's, Bing!, Tao and Memories which were all paying us...you know how much...

I suppose I have no choice but to turn into a slave labourer if I want to do a part time job. Haiz.

Prom!

2007-07-01T21:11:00.001+08:00

Finally, after the whole apply for streamyx fiasco, the toturous wait for them to get back from perhentian, the finding memory card reader thingy, I finally got the prom pics from Wrnwrn! Finally, all 62222kb of it (yupz, you've read it right, it's 60.8Mb), glory hallelujah! So, be prepared folks because this whole post is going to be full of bandwidth sucking, time consuming prom pictures!...uploading...

So anyways, prom was officially on 17th of June (one day after my birthday to be precise - which means no buffet at shogun with the family because you don't eat heavy before prom, nope, you don't!) and then whole night basically resulted in a lot of picture taking, enough to result in 60.8Mb of pictures! haha
And no, I shall only upload a few because I'm not that cruel as to suck up so much bandwidth...

Wrnwrn and I, that's the first, err...second? picture we took that evening.

Karen, Sian Yee, Wrnwrn and I the ahem during library group. Haha, you know what we did that time with the phone. ;D

Jaclyn and I. The earrings do match her outfit because i persuaded her to buy them, yeah!

Wrnwrn and I at some wall at the hotel, and I shall give credit to our "professional" photographer, Tee Da Yuan.

That's me, after we climbed up, down and around JW just to find a nice setting for more PICTURES!

Wrnwrn, Felix and I. Definitely the first picture I've taken...I think...

Soon Teck, Wrnwrn, Ek Wyn and I. Ek Wyn definitely looks different with his hair like that.

Keegan, Wrnwrn and I. Another one with an outstanding hairstyle. Hmm..never notice that..haha

Wrnwrn, Myat and I because I was too bored and decided to do something random.

Haha, I finally decided to take a picture with Ron and give him a hug too! I think the world is coming to an end soon. Haha...

*toot*-Tee Da Yuan! He looks like he's sitting here but he's actually crouching down for the sake of my height. Hehe, and I bullied him to do it!

Wrnwrn and I, the guys - Sing Kwan, Juin Nik and Sing Ming. This was a pretty funny picture because half of us were staring upwards (myself inclusive) and the other half staring at the camera. I wonder why...

Alvin! Another guy we bullied into lowering his height, though he looks like he's at his natural height, right?

Our ex-Prom King number 1, beloved class rep that chases me, beloved treasurer for cash every single time - Gan Kok Shen!

Ex-Prom King number 2, beloved assistant class rep who never really did much until we practically forgot we had an assitant class rep - Daniel Chua Ming Wei!

Harpreet and I. Sheesh, another tall guy...

Ah, Justin, (^_^)V?

Ian and I, another overly spiky hair fella...too smart for his own good.

Alex and I, ex-classmate.

Me at room 1001 doing the Felix imitation of 1001. Notice the change in clothes? Haha, went clubbing...shhh..don't tell...

Ahh...so I lied a little about not uploading a lot of pictures. I was tempted and I never handled temptation well anyways so, ta-da. Plenty of pictures! Ah, last but not least,

Nicholas and I. Wrnwrn was taking the picture and telling Nicholas smile there, look here, don't smile like that! Haha...

Ah! Stole this one from Nicholas, though I don't remember taking this. I like this one better. Definitely...ack, both would do fine.

Wheeeeeeeee.....

2007-07-01T02:32:00.000+08:00

Okay, something very very very happy just happened BUT I shall keep it to myself and whomever that knows what this SOMETHING is because I'm selfish!

Miss you so damn much! I'll see you when I see you!

I'm officially a blackie...err..darkie?

2007-07-01T00:55:00.000+08:00

Hehe..I went swimming today with Nicole and Michi at Stampark, though more of the crap talking than swimming actually.

Yes, we were crapping...while still in the pool. And no, we were not struggling to stay afloat while talking crap. We swam to the poolside bar, the one with the shade (yes, we talked under the shade...I don't think we're crazy enough to talk under the hot hot sun...)

I actually managed to swim a few laps before the urge to go crap with my fellow crapping buddy overtook me...
Actually...it was when i was continously swimming laps and they were crapping nearby and I so happened to swim near them when they were crapping...and I heard something bout me....soo...
naturally I had to stop and refute whatever crap they were saying bout me...which lead to me crapping along...which lead to us swimming to the shade...and crapping some more...haha

I am proud to say...I'm officially dark-er..
Anyways, I'm definitely darker than I was before though I'm not sure how dark I am...
Nicole tells me getting a tan is sexy, so yea...I shouldn't care. Wait, I mean, I don't care that I'm a darkie-blackie, yupz!

Part time job....take one!

2007-06-30T20:36:00.000+08:00

Okay, so I found a job YESTERDAY (too lazy to blog yesterday because I was too damn tired when I got back so yea, I lied bout being able to post 365 times...) and I quit my job 9 hours later! Whoo...what a record! That must be my shortest time it took for me to loose a job...and it’s my first job to boot!

It started out on a bright sunny day when Jaclyn and I decided to go round and look for part time jobs. I mean, I wasn’t really looking for a job, more like scouting so I wasn’t exactly trying or hoping to get a job...har har har...look what happened...
Anyways, we started off with lunch at Tun Jugah cause of the food court there...I think we’re a wee bit too used to eating Asia Café style...haha...so our first stop was Populars because I think working at a bookshop is...okay? Cause you get to read all those books when you’re suppose to be working…or something like that... Anyways, attempt number 1 failed...apparently they weren’t short handed at the moment...
So we thought to head over to coffee bean...and, I saw...ta ta ta tum...this computer shop and I was thinking, why not, just go and ask. It’s not as if we’d get a job there...owh whatever are the possibilities (note the sarcasm).
So we went in...and I talked to the boss...it went a little something like this:

Me: We’re looking for part time jobs actually so we were wondering if you have any available?

Boss: Actually (suddenly sounding very excited...which is not a good thing for us...) we’re in need of people...

Jac and I were like, yes...not bad...

Boss: Can you start now...?

Jac and I....urrmmm..?

Boss: We’ll pay 2.50 per hour

Jac and I....oookay...sounds okay....

Boss: Can you start now?

And that, my friends, was how I got conned into taking a job at the Fujitsu/Mac store, promoting...Which was a boring as hell!
Let’s see...
I...
Stock checked for 6 freaking hours...I now know the store intimately so I’ll know what they sell and what they don’t and what brand they sell and whatsoever and I shall never never never stock check if I’m a newbie because it is DAMN hard to find all the stocks, especially if you have a lot of stock and that you have to count them and sometimes it’s hard to reach for certain items...did I mention it’s hard to find all the stocks especially when they have names you don’t know...
Next...
I stood like there like a dungu...
Stood around some more
Then...
Stood around a little bit more
Read some brochures...
Stand around a bit more...
Occasionally talk to Jac...

Frankly, I tried to kill 3 freaking hours by standing...haha... Anyways, by 6 Jaclyn was asking, can we quit? Cause it’s so FREAKING boring! And I was in total agreement...totally totally and yups...totally...
So 9 hours after we signed up, we went to the boss and we said...can we quit?
So that my friends, is how I earned RM22.50 after standing around doing nothing...
Not bad...at least I’m not at home, sitting around and doing nothing and I wouldn’t get RM22.50...haha

To be or not to be? Engineering or Architecture?

Okay, the moment of truth…

Engineering vs Architecture

UK vs Australia

4 years vs 6 years

Haiz…I’m feeling confused and panicky right now, no kidding here.

You know, I thought I had this all figured out since well duh, architecture is like 6 years and I doubt I want to spend 20s ass stuck in college while my friends prance round in suits. Then again, architecture might sound promising since first off it’s from the one and only Melbourne University which I had been dying to get in since it’s like the top university in Australia and its damn near to the city. Secondly, it’s architecture, which is the love child of physics and art, two subs I’ll PROBABLY enjoy. So what if I suck in art, I have 6 frigging years to polish it up. AND, architects will prolly have a higher chance of getting a job compared to engineers. I just have to suck up to the fact that it’s SIX FREAKING YEARS!

Engineering…sounds ok-ok, especially since it’s purely science, something I’ve been doing since form 4. 4 years is a good average too since practically every course has an average of 4 years. UK? Even better…I get to go to all sorts of places, of course can’t tell mummy and daddy I plan to do that…:D…tee hee…UK is like one of the places I have to go…before I die that is…(plenty of time actually)…So it seems fitting that I pick engineering no? Nice to have my happy bubble burst cause I just found out that mechanical engineering (a course which I had been considering)…is, in short, a man’s world…haiz…not that I mind (seeming as my A lvls class was mostly guys) but – they’d be dealing in machinery, that I HAD thought I wouldn’t mind…I don’t think I do? Anyways, I don’t know bout all the other subjects like Chemical Eng or like E&E or Civil (HA! This is a bigger man’s world apparently)…looks like loads more research…whoopee doopee…Hmm…Nottingham would be the college of my choice if I do go for engineering but I hope I can get better…like Imperial no? haha…just joking…I’m not that amazing :P…ack…I need recommendations on good local universities that offer twinning…MORE research…whoopee…

Then again…I do have 6 mths to kill…ballroom dancing anyone?

P.S. This is my third post in 1 and a half days…Owh, my, GOD! I’m reaching the point of desperation here! I can’t imagine blogging so often in the span of 6 mths…

3 posts in 1 and a half days = 1 post in half a day

1 year has 365 days = ½ a year has 182.5 days

182.5 days = 365 posts!

Whoa….

Okay, second post here, I must be seriously bored out of my mind to post that often. Anyways it's just more crap to be added to make my blog look...more crappy..Haha...

So, I'll be promoting a lil bit here on post secret cause i found it a while back and watching Dirty Little Secret MV by all-american rejects kinda reminded me of it. So here's some very cool dirty lil secret.

It's pretty interesting what people keep as their secret. Hmm...maybe I should write to them one day....:D
