Ipoh, I'm back!!

That's how the end shall be. There goes my first semester for my first year. I never know degree life can be so hectic yet so relaxing. The word relaxing exists because of the nature of laziness in me and not because of degree life is really relaxing. Okay.. Back to the main point. Let's elaborate a bit of my weird degree life. This was perhaps the super weird one for me. There were a lot of things that happened during this semester. Too many..far too many.

Things weren't the same that I had expected. Or should I say 'we' instead of  'me' alone. We predicted things which basically went the opposite way. We expect that my unit will be the most quiet unit but eventually my unit became the center of attraction. Everything just went wrong..

It was not only that, studies was one hell of a thing for me to cope. 4 subjects - 1 subject was easier than expected, 1 subject was normal, 1 subject was hard and 1 more was crazily hard. Going through the 2 hardest subjects was the toughest of all. It's not easy at all especially the stupid Telecommunication subject.. All the acronyms don't make sense at all.. I would rather learn and use these kind of acronyms ~ CB, WTH, WTF, MH....oppssss.. Pardon me.. The lab for this subject was also a torturing one. Imagine doing something that you do not know what it is at all. It is so not cool at all. Going through the days during my university life was so torturing. During beginning of the sem - thinking of mid sem break. During mid sem break - thinking of final exam. During final exam - thinking of holidays. The timetable for my final exam was so not fair. My first exam was on the first day of exam for the whole university. Then the next paper was after 9 days of the first paper. This is so not fair. I cannot finish the exam earlier and go into holiday mood earlier compared to other people. On the night before my first paper, Benji and Vj were incredible, they blasted songs in my living room. It makes me totally not in an exam mood. How cool it was. So relaxing. Hahaha!!! The last paper was Programming and it was super torturing. During the preparation for this paper, I remembered I can't concentrate at all. My mind kept on thinking about what am I suppose to do during holidays. How wonderful it was!! And during the paper, the stupid room was superbly COLD!!!! The moment I stepped into the room and sat down on my seat, I started to shiver. And I survived through it. Some of those question I didn't even answer because my brain seriously frozen and can't think of anything. =D

After all those torturing moment, there were just some moment worth remembering. How interesting it can be. Talking about the beginning of everything was really funny. Gymnastic and football. This two types of sports are not related at all but yet it did this time. Guys without balls.. Hahaha!! Amazing.

I took Airasia flight back to west Malaysia early in the morning just because I need to attend a wedding dinner. I almost miss the wedding dinner thanks to Airasia ~ where everyone can fly LATE. I reached airport quite early that day and I stood there for around 1 hour for boarding. I saw them moving our luggages into the plane and in the next minute, they moved it out again. And I heard this annoying voice in the PA system saying, "Ladies and gentleman, the flight number AK5201 which will be boarding at 9.35am will be delayed to 12.40pm". The next thing that I heard was the sighing of all those passengers for that flight including ME!!! There was this lady standing beside me asking me what happen and I told her the exact thing that I know. And she told me she have an international flight to catch while I was whispering to myself that I HAS A DINNER TO CATCH!!! I was so frustrated that time. That delay caused me my bus back to Ipoh. Fortunately there was transport for me to go back to Ipoh on time for that dinner. I reached home around 6.30pm and went for dinner at 7.00pm. COol..

The dinner was quite awesome. I get to meet up with my ex-classmates and all my best friends. The best thing of getting back to Ipoh is meeting up with friends. After I went through so many things, those reflection and experiences... Nothing is better than those friends that I went through most of my secondary life with. They are the one that I should really really treasure. I'm awake. Sorry my friend.

The first few days in Ipoh were rather busy for me. I get to hang out with my friends. And one most important event that I went through with them was PAINTBALL!!! I was absolutely cool though painful. It was so so so exciting. Unfortunately, it was an unfair game as it was 3 against 2 where Steve, Wayne and Ben against me and Kok. I got shot a few times (thigh, wrist, head) and I ate the stupid paint.. EWWWW.. It was super BITTER.. YUCK!!! Wounds and bruises were all over my body. But the fun was worth it.

I remembered telling myself that I prefer football more than futsal. But eventually, I went futsal more than football since I came back here. Perhaps there are more friends playing futsal compared to football. I need more sports!!!! I'm getting fatter since I'm back. I can feel that and I can see that. OMG.. I shall put some effort on it.

And then CHRISTMAS!!! This year I get to come back to Ipoh and celebrate Christmas. Now I realized that the Christmas celebration in Ipoh was totally no match of Kuching. Next year I shall celebrate Christmas in Kuching instead of celebrating here. It was superbly boring here. Nothing special at ALL!!! Now it make me miss Kuching. What I'm trying to mean is only for Christmas celebration. At least there are more friends of mine celebrating Christmas where I can actually visit their house. COOL!!! Shepherd's pie which I remembered the most!!! YUMMY!!!!

This is the update for so far. Until then....See ya!!
~Missing as I always do~

Addiction....

I SURVIVE through a hard week. I know it's too early for me to be happy about surviving through it but I have to admit that there will be more to come. Quiz and tests were not easy at all.. Assignments and projects are torturing. Of all things, there will be always one thing that can make you happy. Cheers..

What can I say, green tea ice cream is just too nice for me to resist it. yummy!!!!!! One word to describe it...AWESOME..

Being fed with drugs is definitely not a nice thing. However, its addictive enough to make you keep doing it. There are just too many drug dealers around here. Drugs here are totally different from what we have in Peninsula.. Instead of the traditional way of making you addicted to cocaine or tobacco, they fed you with SONGS!!!! Yea, thats how pathetic they are.. They will DRUG you with SONGS.. Those songs are so addictive that you wouldn't live one second not singing that song in your mind. The effect is even stronger than those normal and typical cocaine.. I can say that I'm a drug addict now.. That is so not nice.. =/
Electropop hot, funk addiction when I can't stop~~~skin tight jeans~~~

In the time of war, people were deeply hurt from the inside out and outside in. Though bullets and fire could be seen everywhere but still, there will always be allies around to aid them. War and chaotic time will just happen without choosing its time, place and reason. And that was what happened during the WW2. What would happen to the WW3 that is coming soon??

It's not easy as inferiority complex had always been an issue but still I managed to pull myself up and geared it up. I didn't expect that I would do it but I did. I didn't expect that I have the courage to continue on but I did. Though things may seems a little bit lacking and messed up but still pull it up together. I mean what I meant. Yes, I mean it.. I'm just glad that I did. =)

The Festival of Light

Deepavali had just passed. However, I still want to wish all of you who are reading this Deepavali nalvaltugal and Diwali subakanchulu. Two new words that I learned from an Indian friend of mine. One which is in Tamil and one more is in tagalog. Cool....

Same country, different generation, different culture, different environment, different celebration. One of the most regular thing that we will do back in Peninsula with our parents is to visit their Indian friends who are having open houses while eating "murukku". Things were a bit different compared to last year and last time when I was in peninsula. Instead of visiting my dad's Indian friends and eating murukku, I actually celebrated or should I say went through Deepavali with my friends in cafe. 

The environment in the cafe was cool.. Really really cool. It was quite dim where we sat under a hut, a wooden hut. Surrounded with dim little oil lamp and a few dim light bulb. With the decoration of a cool little pool at the very corner where frogs were sounded like they are mating and flowers growing up in the typical boots where Phua Chu Kang used to wear. 

When the menu was in my hands, a glance through the menu and I saw a very interesting order which attracted my attention. It was super duper funny enough when I showed it to the others, they were all excited about it. As you know, this is the mindset of teenagers nowadays. Unfortunately, noone actually dare to order that 'thing'. 

Food were extremely nice there especially when I tasted this small little soft-shelled-crabs. YUMMY!!!! Chit-chatting while laughing at every single little random things that came from our mouth. This is what make a simple little dinner to be so lively when laughters are spread continuously. 

Random days will always come,

Random things might come unnoticed,

Random happiness will always be remembered,

Random moment will always be cherish.

The sky is crying,

It purposely pollute the water,

It wets the hairs,

It worsen the sight,

It restricts everything,

But it's nice and I like it.

Bonanza monopoly!!

Life after mid term break is quite relaxing not because there isn't any work for me to do but then it is because of the laziness in me that overwhelm and control me. I just couldn't start doing anything other than enjoying myself with the entertainment around me.

Just before I started the other half of my sem, I felt down during sports and injured my elbow. Slammed down on the ground, landing with my right elbow and left palm leaving both of these parts in pain after awhile (palm blue-black with right elbow bleeding and in extreme pain). After a few days, which was yesterday, I went for sports again. Though the accident was not even noticeable, I felt a shirt scratched my wound and "Dah-da"~ my elbow is bleeding again. How amazing that is!? Wow!!

My 2nd sem watching the University Basketball Tournament Final. This year final was AceX vs Magic. AceX was the runner up last year and I wanted them to win this sem because they couldn't win last sem. They were behind in the 1st and 2nd quarter but after another 2 last quarter of heart-beating action from their team which I was totally amazed of, they won!! The beautiful passing, amazing dribbling, perfect blocking plus accurate shooting really left me shouting and screaming there with my friend. A totally unforgettable match. Didn't regret going for it.

We recently was totally addicted to this game, MONOPOLY. This game was kind of special compared to the normal monopoly that I knew all along. This game was played using a set of cards. ~Deal breaker, Sly deal, Forced deal, Just say NO, and the irritating Pass Go.... How could this name of cards be taken away from my mind. I remember playing it during lecture and tutorial.. There you can see how desperate and addicted we are to the game. xD

OMG!!!! I didn't know what had happened to my roommate. He had turned from an innocent guy which always claimed he is 15 to a guy who still claimed he is always 15 but who is super perverted. I seriously do not know how to describe his perverted-ness here. I think those actions and words are totally indescribable. Safe me from the lion's mouth!!! It is still normal if he is only interested in girls. But UNFORTUNATELY, he is also interested in GUYS!!! OMG!!!! What a big and drastic change and evolution he is experiencing!!??

But still, he bring laughter and joy. Bad in certain way but cool in different way. =D

Today was cool. We went for a movie called 'The Other Guys'. This was a really stupid and weird movie but yet it is funny. Funny in a stupid way!! I couldn't resist myself from laughing because of those stupid and weird actions and dialogue of theirs. Through some funny and tiring part, I managed to go for Sushi King. This was my 1st time going for Sushi Bonanza!!! WOW!!! It was really really cool!!! Unagi, salmon, tako, nihotate, ika, ebi ten, chuka iidako, chuka chinmi and ikura!! AWWWW!!! I'm so hungry now!!! Better stop it now or else I will die because of starvation. HAHA!!

Guess it's time for me to head to bed now.

I still can't figure out how I can make you work, circuit.. Could you tell me in real life or in my dream??

Break-ing

This is my official 1st blog since I had back to Uni or should I say -away-from-Ipoh-again 'trip'. I had move myself out of the in-campus hostel this semester where I thought I can enjoy myself here with the internet connection and the new environment but it wasn't that easy after all. The internet connection here was totally rubbish. At the beginning of the stay, it was still okay as I still can online though that it might be super lag. Eventually, the connection became worst when I can't even connect into it. What a disaster!! Now me and my house-mates have to spend some extra Ringgit for our own internet connection.

This was actually going on pretty well until problem after problem started to arise and break the silence. Some things are meant to be kept to ourselves so I would rather not speak it up in public.

I was taking my Programming subject this semester. My brother actually told me that this subject was superbly hard and I didn't really believe him at the very beginning but........now I believe him. It was definitely hard. I think I flunk my 1st Lab Test. Another hard subject that I was facing now was some kind of Telecommunication subject where I can hardly understand the lecturer during lecture. I took most of the lecture time to visit my dreamland. Should I be proud of that??

My Uni celebrated its 10th anniversary last week. I thought it will be a grand carnival that will be held on Saturday but in the end......There was a carnival but then it was just a small carnival. Not really small but just that it was not as grand as I had in my mind.

Then I attended 'Youth Got Talent' and basically I participated in it. Don't ask what did I do on the stage but thanks to my group members, we managed to get the 1st runner up for the group category. There were 19 performances from both solo and group categories. There were 1 particular performance that made me had goose bumps. Ewwww... There were other performances that were nice but there was this particular performance ~ by this one friend of mine who performed her AWESOME skills in playing ukulele.. WOW... Her voice were nice and her skills was amazing in handling that ukulele. She deserved to be the Champion in solo category. One word, AWESOME!!!

FAST FORWARD!!!

Just finish my tests before mid-term break. HOORAY!!!! I do not know why, this week had been so difficult for me, not physically but mentally.. Maybe the disease of thinking-too-much come back again. But who cares now.. I'm cured.

Now is mid-term madness... Errrmmmm..... but should I really say it as break because I have tonnes of assignments to complete where I don't even know how to do on it. What I need to do now is to prepare myself to die nicely only. How amazing. xD Circuit oh circuit, how shall I complete thee!?

So, adios guys. I shall prepare myself... HAHAHA

Malacca Trip as Farewell

Time flies especially when things are going the way that you want it to be. So fast and I'll be leaving Ipoh~my beloved hometown~ soon......really soon....

During this last week of my holiday, I managed to finally visit the famous historical state, Malacca, together with my mum. I was quite reluctant to go in the beginning but then the experience of my stay in Malacca and the beauty of it really proved me wrong of thinking that way. This time of my visit was actually to visit my brother as he kept on persuading me to visit him and as well as to enjoy the scenery of Malacca. Now, I finally had the chance to make it true.

My journey of about 5 hours was really torturing. I've to thank my phone for doing me a great favour in accompanying me throughout the journey. *music music music* I barely can take of my earphone once I've put it on.

First drop, 'Melaka Sentral'. I was really amazed of the station as it is much more beautiful, cleaner, nicer etc than 'KL Sentral' and this is needless to compared to the dirty and dusty 'Medan Gopeng' that we have here in Ipoh. It seems that 'Melaka Sentral' was bigger than 'KL Sentral'.It was basically a small shopping complex where you can find all types of things that you can find in a normal shopping complex can be found here as well.

After dropping all of our belongings, we headed to the famous Malacca's Petaling Street, Jonker Street. Unfortunately, this famous street will only be crowded during Fridays and weekends. However, we still managed to get a tour around Jonker Street. My mum bought a lot of local food such biscuits and candies. I managed to taste the original 'gula Melaka' here. WOW!! I was totally amazed of it. The 'gula Melaka' was seriously 'kao' and sweet compared to the 'gula Melaka' elsewhere.

After a long walk along Jonker Street, we went to have a tour in Dataran Pahlawan Megamall and Mahkota Parade. The one thing that I regretted not doing there was I did not buy Yui's latest album 'Holidays in the Sun', the only shop that I can find Yui's latest album. AHHHH!!! We went to a coffee house famous for its delicious and mouth-watering mille crepe, Nadeje. The mille crepe was absolutely amazing where it can trigger your appetite. The original mille crepe taste sold there was of no comparison to others mille crepe.

Then we head to the famous Satay Celup. The word satay definitely will give you an impression of the normally made satay where those meats were poke through with a stick and barbequed. This was a different version of satay that were normally found in Malaysia. It was something with the concept same as 'Lok Lok' but the soup that was used to cook the food is not normal soup but satay sauce. Food such as fishball, chicken meat, vegetables etc were cooked using those sauce filled with crunched peanuts. WOW.. My stomach is 'drumming' now when I'm talking about it.

In the end, we have a little of Malacca Night Tour. I managed to see the famous Stadthuys a.k.a 'Red House'. It was really really ~red....... HAHA... It was closed when I visited it that time and I didn't get a chance to get a tour in the building. Ships as museum, a tall skyscraper for visitors to view the whole city and many more historical places where I didn't managed to visit in one day.

I returned to Ipoh on the next day. I will be back to Malacca one day to truly enjoy the beautiful scenery of it. Unfortunately, the bus that I was on, broke down and one hour of my time was wasted. If it was not because of my mum, we will not only be waiting for one hour.

It's time..........

-Finger down-

The Remaining

It had been weeks since I am back to my beloved town Ipoh. And in a blink of eye, my holiday is going to end in another week time. Time really flies especially when you are enjoying most of the time. Or maybe not most of it, just partially. But still, happy time does fly. That's how cruel the world can be when it wants to grab away the time that you are enjoying the most. That's the reality. On Earth, happiness does exist but it doesn't last long. So my dear readers and friends, grab every opportunities that held in front of you all so that you won't regret it in the future.

Reviewing back on what I had really done for the past few weeks in Ipoh, I really can't think of much that I had done. However, I do appreciate the time that I spent with my friends here in Ipoh during this holiday of mine. I managed to drive down to Kampar and had a little suprised visit to them where we ended up in a cybercafe. People might think that we might be dumb to drive so far to Kampar and just ended up playing computer games but then for me, those time was precious. Or should I say priceless.

I watched a movie recently and I really felt this phrase is meaningful ~ "A person's property is not measured by his/her wealthiness but by the number of relatives and friends that he/she has" ~ Friendship and relationship are just priceless.

I just attended the Hillsong [Unite=Conquer] Concert in Syuen which was totally mesmerizing. Hmm, shouldn't really say that. Should say it was AWESOME!!! The worship was rocking and the sermon was attractive enough for people like us to listen. I can barely meet someone that I know there. Ipoh now are filled with strangers. It was seriously nice until I do not know how to express it into words. Hahaha!!!

Sports had been always my favourite hobby of all. I had been continuously going for sports especially football. I did spend some time on other sports as well such as badminton, table tennis, basketball, futsal and even pool. HAHA!! And one more thing, I had gained weight.. This is the worst scenario ever. I can't maintain back my weight before I left for Sarawak. =.='

According to Chinese Lunar Calendar, it was the beginning of July just recently which is also known as the Ghost Month of for the Chinese. And in conjunction of this also, it marked the opening ceremony for the injury of my TWO toes within THREE days. I told my dad that day about the incident that I accidentally kicked the table with my toe, he was shocked and told me back, "What!? Again!?". Even my dad was shocked too when he heard about my toes. =P MY POOR LITTLE, WEAK AND SOFT TOES.

I'm glad =)
