Christmas Celebration
Choon Hui: Me anything, want go where and drink ( looking at me )
Jian Fung: Me also anything...
Me:Wait..wait...let me open your present for me first,then I'll decide whether you can open what I gave you
Anyway, I was joking and so all of us opened our presents !!
*Imagine little children tearing off the wrapping paper and wanted to know whats inside for Christmas*Hold that thought because we are not that crazy...all of us wanted to preserve beauty of the wrapping paper and so we opened it carefully. Jian Fung got a crystal chess set from me and a Buddhist book from Choon Hui. Choon Hui got a webcam from me and an expensive bath towel from Jian Fung. For me, I got a lovely mug from Jian Fung and a collectibles of an old vintage car and chocolates!! Everyone love what they got and that includes me.Thanks guys ! Oh, and 1 more thing, Jian Fung said there was once our friend ( no names are to be said ) was having a video call with him and that friend didn't realise the webcam was connected,Jian Fung saw him digging his gold mine (nose) and took a screenshot ! HAHAHA
Then, I got a call saying that my uncle and cousins and my parents are in the shopping mall and to go home together...so i guess that marks the end of the Christmas celebration.BUT the worst is yet to come ! Met up with my parents and cousins and they are done with their shopping and it's time to go home. There's only one car and there's seven of us...Could you imagine how cramped and stuffy it was 5 people at the backseat( mind you is wasn't a 7 seater car...it's a normal car ) ...I thought it would not be that bad as the journey home shouldn't take very long...to my horror, it started to jam just after we came out from the underground parking...a little jam won't kill right? Nope,it was a living hell for me...Let's just say if I was a sardine fish in a fully loaded sardine can, I would be squashed in that can tightly for 2 solid hours ! The jam was so bad and I would be an overcooked sardine fish because it was damn stuffy in the car...and to think what's the worst that could ever happen...it did happen...despite the sardine like condition..my parent and my cousin family still can chat and joke happily...okay chats and jokes are fine but when everyone starts to speak at once...I tell you, I was bombarded with millions of sound waves that could easily tear my eardrums into pieces ! Imagine everyone talking in the car at once, come on lah..there's no space for the sound wave to go out...So, I tried to get some sleep but I just couldn't fall asleep even though I was tired...Jam at the city centre for nearly 2 hours in a hot noisy sauna packed with 5 people in the backseat of the car...Not even the **** word can ever describe how incredibly bad the jam was...It's just the worst jam ever in my entire 17 years of living in this world...NOTE TO EVERYONE: NEVER, i mean ever !! go back by car during the peak hours when everyone are rushing home from work...Not even a considerate driver during this hours and you wouldn't want to be in my shoe
Overall, it was the best day of my life and the worst day of my life...2 in 1... okay, take care everyone ! and these are some random shots I took...we never took any photos together ...i guess we must have been too excited for our Christmas celebration and forgets...and Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas to everyone ! Watch out for HoHoHo in the midnight and a loud thud in your living room !
our very own Santa Claus(red shirt)is giving me a phone as my present =D
the tall beautiful Christmas tree in the middle of the mall
I just love their ornaments~ Christmas is in the air !

The start of something new
So, do comment on this new skin and I look forward to creating a better blog =D Anyway,I woke up today to finish the last touch up of this blog and also to prepare "tang yuan". Yup, I know..."tang yuan" festival is on the 22nd of Dec. but we celebrated it earlier as we were on our freezing cold holiday in Harbin from 13 until 24 of Dec...
Everyone know "tang yuan" festival is somehow just like everyone birthday...so,just like this blog, a new birth, another new beginning =) Hmm...must be a good sign for whatever good things that are coming. The " tang yuan "my mum and I made was nice...not to mention I was so blurry as I slept at 2 am but woke at at 6.30 am...and my mum made them super fast...i made like 10 balls...she was like finishing up 2 plates of balls...
It was like our fruits of labour (or maybe..my mum's fruit of labour) after it was cook and done !As u bite into it, the whatever sweet thing was inside flows out like flooding river banks of sweetness..OK !!enough about this...I find myself lost of words now as I'm damn sleepy...and later have to wake up again for the PC fair in KLCC...hope i can get a webcam with built-in microphone !!..OK OK, my vocabulary banks are closing ,so enjoy the picture and take care for now.Slumber Land,here I come...

A Boring Day with me
Wake up early in the morning...what for ? to temple with mum and dad. It was somewhere near my school. We're going there sort of like to thank the God for protecting our family and blessing and studies and all that lar. Yeah ! Time to say Thank You in the end of the year...Surprisingly it was not crowded as it used to be...and that means less smoky ! good...I thought. Unfortunately, it was still kinda smoky and I was like crying and we have chicken,vegetables, and fruits to offer, what a balanced meal...Oh ya .. and I thank the God of Study ( i think ) for the smoothness of my studies and exam all year round ...=D. Ok, done praying, now lets head to our next destination...
2nd destination site :
The Wet Market with all those little creatures U don't even wanna think about...It was somehow beside the temple. mum wanted to buy some things but I don't know what things...see, see, look, look, walk, walk and she just bought hou see ( dried oyster, i guess ).... I'd also saw some unhealthy sights,LOL ....saw the people at there throwing the chickens into hot water =.=" to kill them..and they are like flapping like crazy....somehow felt sad for them to die just to provide us with chicken rice...-.-""" Then, mum suggested to go to to a DVD shop to buy some Korean shows...( did I mention the temple and shop was also near to Petaling Street ? )
3rd destination site:
The "Hiro" comic and video shop...they sell comics and DVD...spend about half an hour there to search for new Korean dramas or anything nice...bought 2 drama's and that's it nothing much here. Next stop~
4th destination site:
Petaling Street...this is nice...hot spot for tourist.. After buying the DVD, so we decide to walk around and perhaps...PERHAPS buy something or whatever,maybe some foods..Everywhere u look...it's all pirated stuff...look at your right, u see some GUESS watches ( pirated !), look at ur left u see some Nike shoes that looks like NIKE shoes! and not to mention far cheaper and u'll know why..., then look everywhere u see foreigners...ang mao,mat salleh, Indonesian,Filipino and god knows where the other people come from =.= look at ur right, u see handbags and perfumes....at ur left.. " BUY 1 FREE 1 " pirated Cd's...and then I saw some signs from the police saying " No pirated Cd's are allowed ". yeah,right...salute the police as I look at those people happily selling pirated Cd's =.= then some people will just appear in front of U..sort of begging for u to buy their things...not beg lar..just in a forceful manner....=.= ...so we stop by the tau foo fah stall ...and eat by the road side...how romantic =p...Then, we decided to head home..oh wait before that have to go to market again..........
5th destination site :
The Wet Market again...so I tried to walk faster this time so that my mum won't stop by and buy some things....hahha...and so my plan works ! but then she stop by the asam laksa stall and have to wait awhile
*Flashback*
MUM : Auntie, can faster ah ? ( in a polite way )
Asam Laksa Auntie:Cannot faster ah.. must WAIT ! .. (in a rude way)
Our jaw was like dislocated itself....and so we shall wait...what to do my mum said her asam laksa is nice....
* went home , sleep, eat, watch Korean drama, got my hair cut, play some games and ....*
6th destination site:
Pasar Malam ( Night Market ) near my house...well nothing much happen...not to mention that guy with his loudspeaker voice shouting to promote their things...It seems a pretty nice night, walking and enjoying ourself... and **** it RAINS suddenly.....thanks to my genius mum who suggested that we bring the umbrella out earlier, we don't end up as wet as others....=D
As fast as it came, then rain stop suddenly....weird but it did stop...time to close the umbrella and continue our " shopping "...walk half-way and ****...the umbrella opens by itself suddenly...embarrassed I quickly close it back...it did hit some of the peoples legs...I make sure it was totally secure and wont open again.... **** the umbrella opens up again !!=.=.... wah, super embarrass this time !! one woman was shocked she nearly fell down...I was like laughing and embarrass at the same time LOL
And so that marks the end of our TOUR of Boring Land, people ! embarrass yet happy...turned out to be a boring day at first but was ok at night...It's nice to see different people from different walks of life...Tata for now...I'm on my way to my slumber land ~~

FRIENDSHIP is a pure white handkerchief that wipes the sad tear stains on your cheeks dry
There was once a philosopher said : 'A single rose can be my garden; A single friend can be my world'
when i read through weng chung's blog, I'm just overwhelmed by emotions that can burst off anytime...no words can describe our friendship which is beyond just mere friends...it's really been a pleasant journey cruising along with a wonderful friend like you..God really blessed me by sending you to me on angle's wings...I'm just glad that we've shared the blessings and bitterness of school life together...you understood all my 'whims and fancies', accepted all my faults and appreciated all my goodness...you never tried to judge me, nor criticise my shortcomings but to only be at each others' sides along the way and made me realise what my mistakes are...it's really been a looooong way that we've came so far...back then i still can remember the days when we sang aloud together in class and of course the glorious days of the school choir..haha..and u've always said that my version of 'You Raise Me Up' had made ur ears soothed and i just love singing all the way throughout the moments...not to forget when we rushed all the designs and banners of any important occasions of school...just by the two of us...can't believe we've came up with marvelous ideas..haha..
and to all my frens out there, jian fung, wei keat, thiam sang, tuck man, pei yow, kishu, wai lun, alex, andrew, harry, kheng hong and all the " kaki's" of our gang..haha..i would once again dedicate this poem to all of you and you know u guys are the spices just like what weng chung said that had really 'spiced up' my entire school life..and to all the frens whom i never mention ur name..no worries...u'll always have a space in my book of life..so long!!
A poem for my friends
A poem for my friends,
I wrote it when the year ends.
Words to be treasured,
You’ll never be alone, that’s assured.
We’ve been through thick and thin,
Uncovered truth and childish sins.
It made me ponder,
Have I left nothing but wonder?
It seemed like yesterday,
Where we’re standing here on the first day.
Thinking nothing but studies,
To search for life’s remedies.
Over the years, life’s filled with endless laughter,
Exam to us is the only torture.
That made us battle,
Last-minutes are ways we hustle.
We shared moments of glory,
Where they became history.
Worth smiling,
When memories came lingering.
And sometimes when the days fall,
We’ll always stand tall.
Learning from mistakes that’s how we gain,
Never ever will we turn back again.
We’re blessed with great educators,
To shape us so that life can no way be our dictator.
For all the words of endless wisdom,
Will be carved in our hearts when troubles loom.
Till then…
Time tore us apart,
In such instant that sadness sparks…
Despite the hard feelings that preyed,
And here I pray,
Witnessed by God from heaven,
Wishing I’ll be forgiven…
Friends are like melons and shall I tell you why?
To find a good one, you must a hundred try.
And I found you in my book of life,
A chapter that I’ll always treasure till the last breath of mine...
God Bless,
The proud sailors on this voyage in school

Confused =(
Somehow I felt that there is someone in me who wants to break free. I have the feeling that I'm suppose to be someone more than just who i am now...someone wanting to come out....someone who will do incredible things...i really do believe that that " someone " in me was my destiny. Sometimes I would just sit and stared blankly at peoples action and behaviour and somehow i tried to guess why they are acting in such manner...
It seems very weird sometimes I would suddenly realised that it was not me who did this and that. It was rather a complicated feeling, as if I was doing things when I'm unconscious...And these holidays gave me time to think about my future and what's to become of me...Its as if a devil and an angel both on my shoulder advising me to do something that was promising or to just break the old tradition and take the less travelled path...
And then I start to realise that there is no point worrying now..but there's still a slight uncomfortable feeling about what is in the future 4 me...I guess I am worrying to much...I will take this time to really appreciate every moment in my teenager life as there is not a second chance...Lets just let TIME do its job and only time will tell if the someone in me break free...So, i guess I will have an enjoyable holiday and hope everything will be great...And stepping out of comfort zone is bitter for 1st few steps and we tend to step in back and that someone in me is trying really hard to get out...
The angle on my shoulder : hey! everything will be fine! be positive !
The devil : * u guess *
All the best to everyone and may the angel or perhaps the devil =D lead ur way to ur destiny. I believe some things are fated but some is up to us to chase after.
Signing off for the day .
Missing everything
*its not in an orderly manner *
Choon Hui
A true friend that I will cherish for the rest of my life. Choon Hui ...U're more like a brother to me. We are born in the same year,month, and date...even our time is very close...And then we realised our surname is same too ( in Chinese ). Unbelievable isn't it ? Somehow God is really great in making us meet each other and I know there's a reason for it. i mean how could ever meet someone who is same age,birthday and surname with u. A billion to one probability. His mum said we are brothers in our past-life. I totally agree with that. We knew each other during our PE lesson when we are chatting about our birthdays...and since then everything is history...Choon Hui , U have been a great friend,really... even though u didn't notice it. And if there are anything bad or how badly I acted on U, I'm truly SORRY for that. I know we have fights before but it is fights that made us more patient and understanding. I hope that we can stay in touch always...U're someone who i count on.. I do not know what would school be like without ur presence.And I do like the times when we share our passion for magic and wild imaginations....seems childish but I'll cherish it 4ever and everything that we had done.It's because of U, my voyage in school has been really a memorable one.Thanks for stepping into my life.
Thiam Sang
Although we did not knew each other for a very long time but it seems that we are long lost friends. I knew him when we are in form 3 but we are not close tat time. It's when we sit together in form 4 that we knew each other better. He was really my 3rd hand helping me out in school. Every time I have problems in my studies, he was the one i look 4. And everytime also he never ever refuses to help. He's a very " cincai" person and will help everyone. Besides being my 3rd hand, he was a good friend and we can chat almost everything...And since we might not study together again... I would really apologize for the troubles I brought to U. If u ever read this, I would like U to know that u have done a great job. Thank you 4 everything.
Jian Fung
How could I ever forget U. We didn't know each other until we sat with each other during form 3 and that's when everything happens....during that time i remember Arjuna asking me how it is to be sitting with Jian Fung. I remember I said he was the most annoying,irritating person I've ever sat with....Somehow looking back I'm really honoured to be ur 1st victim....i also remember how i would secretly take a look at his black colour book where he wrote stuff on...secretly because he won't let me see it..so Jian Fung now u know what I did hahha... now that we grew up to be classmate ever since form 3 , I know he is more than an irritating person. Behind that there is someone I could count on and he will be there when I need him(somehow =D) I'm really glad to know someone like U. Like I said before in his testimonial, what a spicy few year knowing u, but hey that's something I've never ever wished for and I'm glad it happen...Like CcM said how could we forget how u laugh.. It is just happy happy happy talking to you...and was a good listener too...I think its mostly because of gossip he wan 2 hear hahha...And all those memorable moments we have been with each other i will cherish forever...School wouldn't be fun without U. I'll miss u, bear !!!
Kar Heng
He's been my primary school classmate and he's the one I sat with during my 1st year at secondary school. i remember how much fun we sit by each other and the moment we did our projects at his house and my house. It was a memorable one when I thought back...As i think back about that I would really want it to continue forever. Still remember what we did when we have fights...Either he or me will leave a gap between our tables as a sign that we are not friends...how childish we are and I will not forget that and it will always be some special to me. But, as we are not classmates, then we are not close with each other liao...So, now if we meet each other at school, somehow it feels so strange. And I'm really sorry if u felt being ignored by me but as I said earlier I'm not an expressive guy...If there are any misunderstanding, believe me I really wouldn't want it to happen. Thanks for the memories as friends and I do hope we will be more close to each other like we do last time. I do believe there is a reason God make us friends and I would really stay in touch with u because we might not meet each other due to our separate ways in life.U're truly an amazing friend.
Harry
I don't remember how we meet but he has been a great friend as well...And everyone called him alien hahha...how fast he would finish his homework and the amount of information he has in his brain...he's like an information station 4 me! But anyway when we skip PE lesson, we would be chatting on other things except studies...so it's nice to have someone like U...2 in 1 ,I guess =D
Tuck Man
Somehow I wan to include him in this...don't remember how we became friends but never mind lar... A fun guy to be around...with his comment about the teachers and other peoples, he just make u laugh like nobody business...not to mention his dirty talk hahha...and also a pro in Moral education...despite having nilai hemah tinggi,bertoleransi,bertanggungjawab and all those nilai...U would never thought he could be so dirty at times...
Kheng Hong
Lets just say he's someone that I'm looking for when my computer have troubles...hahha...Other than that a great friend who help you quite alot. And also my primary sch friend...he certainly help me alot in computer thing and other things la...thanks for everything =D
ALL my primary friends in secondary school
I think most of us was not as close as before because we are not classmates anymore in school but do remember I will always remember each one of U. I really do remember who was in standard 6 up till now and I regret for not keeping in touch with some friends that I miss very much... if any one of U ever read this, do leave a comment so we can stay in touch again...
Teachers!!
Mrs. Ramani
She was an incredible teacher...not only does she taught literature,she taught us how 2 be a gentleman..and that is what I appreciate the most. The 1st day she entered our class, I knew exactly that she is different from other teachers. now I do really miss her and how we would sit around her as if we was like babies waiting for story-telling time =D and how she cared for everyone in sch, plus her jokes ans stories made every lesson enjoyable.
Pn. Lim
The greatest Malay language teacher ever! Simply amazing...a great teacher
Miss Lim
One thing I will really remember is her skill in throwing marker pens...hahha...When someone is sleeping in the class, then she would aim and fire her marker pen and guess what 100% guarantee every time hits the target.Another thing was during graduation, she cried along with music of Auld Lang Syne. That is one sight I will always remember and it was so touching. And that just shows teachers are more than plain teachers,more like our 2nd parents . And I remember her telling me to get an A1 for her...i did all my best in add maths and hope it will turn out great!
Pn. Low
The only form teacher i remember the most, I really salute her skills in teaching mathematics...And all of us did have fun during her class...and not to mention when she scold ppl..our class would be super silent..i will remember her 4ever.
Pn. Chan
A mother more than a chemistry teacher...I remember few weeks before SPm, she told me that I sure will get an A and not to be panic during the exam. She was more worry with our results than we are hahha..superb teacher
There are lots more people that I would really treasure 4ever. For those who I did not mention, it doesn't mean that I hate U or what....i do notice everyone in school. Somehow, I do not really understand why some of us are left being alone and ignored. In my entire life, I have been thinking about why must we choose who to be friends with. All of us are human beings and we are from the same species..we should help each other and be with each other...no matter who is cool, geek ,handsome,ugly ,stupid, clever, rich or poor, why must we choose who to be with. All of us are the same. What I'm trying to say is everyone of us are friends no matter what.
Life is like a jigsaw puzzle and everyone is important even if u do not know them. God have his way in fitting everyone of us in this jigsaw puzzle. Everyone exist for a reason whether its ur enemy or friends. Even our enemy can be great friends if we look in another way. We are from the same species and we are destined to live with each other no matter who is more important.
hahha i think I'm going out of topic but that's just my opinion in how I look at certain things. We have a long way to go and all I can say is treasure every nanosecond of the sweet and bitter moments together as friends. Stay in touch !
