Bus Crash No More.

Melanie sent this link over to me earlier. And I think everybody should visit the blog.
More importantly is to sign the petition as a support to this honourable act in hopes to bring about changes in the inter-state bus system.

http://buscrashnomore.blogspot.com/

It's good to finally have someone to initiate it.

I was pretty disheartened on how I was refreshed with the news of the oh-so-many bus accidents that had happened over the past years. And the oh-so-many lives it all took away.

This line really appealed to me, and I could never agree more.

"Next time, it could be you or me"

Everytime when it nears the festive seasons, we see many people getting on buses, 'balik kampung'.
Each and everyone is hopeful to reach home safely, to celebrate the festive holidays happily and in peace.
However it is alway so sad to see in the news how buses crash and cause many innocent lives depart.

With all my heart, I wish that this effort will come to a fruitful end.
And the authorities would look seriously into this matter once and for all, to finally declare inter-state bus rides are safe [even during festive seasons].

But before that could ever happen, everyone should seriously show your TLC and help in bringing success to the effort for change.
And the first step to take is, of course, to click on the link above and sign in your e-signature.

C'mon. Even IF you don't care, it wouldn't hurt you to do it, would it?

'Lou Sang'.

Toss toss toss~~~

So embarassed.
Got too excited that I accidentally tossed one piece of the 'salmon' fish and a tiny portion of the 'yee sang' at a very wrong angle of direction, straight on to the table. Wasted.

But hey, what's 'lou sang' if you don't have it all scattered around the table right? Hehe.

For those who might not know, 'lou sang' is this tradition that the Chinese practice during the Lunar New Year celebrations.
Family and friends would usually gather together and have a toss on the 'yee sang' together, right before a meal together.

'Yee sang' is the dish which includes fresh salmon, few kinds of shredded vegetables like white radish and carrot, red chilli, young ginger, crispy 'yao char kwai' or crispy crackers and then added with a special kind of sauce. Then, one red 'ang pow' packet which contains 5 kinds of spices is opened and added in.

'Lou sang' on the other hand meant the act of mixing all the 'yee sang' ingredients together.
As you toss, you should say some auspicious greetings or wishes.
This is to usher in prosperity, longevity, good luck and health in the coming lunar new year.

Sounds cool, eh?
Here, I found one recipe for anyone of you who might love to have some home-made 'yee sang' for the reunion dinner.

Have fun tossing your 'yee sang' this new year!
Remember to toss it high up~~ *winks*


p/s: Happy Birthday, Kok Eng!

Reckless Driving.

I was going through my forwarded mails and I came across one that really saddens me. Be it true story or not.

This is about a girl, whose life has pretty much been ruined by a fella who actually drunk driving. *sigh*
It is so sad to see her bearing the consequences of another person's wrong doing.
According to the mail, she was caught in the burning car and her body was heavily burnt for about 45 seconds.
Imagine the pain she suffered. Imagine the pain she's still suffering.
I'm not even sure if I can say that she's lucky to have survived. =(

[before the accident]

[after the accident]

Right after reading this, I was so busy forwarding this mail to all my friends in the list. I couldn't bear not to tell however many people I know about this.
I just hope noone would ever do any mistake like this. You would never want to live with the guilt.
It is so painful to just look. Imagine her going through it.

Then, I was talking to Ken and suddenly he asked about whether I know Shelva.
Apparently, he knows her brother.
He told me that Shelva got into an accident just recently and the news was even in the newspaper.
Good God, I believe my heart had seriously skipped a beat.

He sent me this link.
I was so scared and thank God, I didn't see her name in the article. *phew*
What a relieve.
But it is still so sad to have read that the accident had taken 3 lives.
One of them is featured in the newspaper as well. Reading the article, I really felt pity for her.
She was only 21. She had such a great life ahead to live, and it had been taken away from one irresponsible driver.
Even more irresponsible is the bus company. *sigh*

So, to everyone of you reading this, please and please don't ever be reckless and irresponsible.
If you wouldn't mind killing yourself, please don't ever try to bring anyone innocent down with you.
You would never want to live with such guilt all your life.

p/s: The roads are so unsafe. How am I to drive with such pressure on me now? ><

New Trimester Already?

Time flies. It felt like just yesterday that the holiday started.

Came back to this sophisticated-isolated-dead-city yesterday. And it was not pleasant. =(
The moment I stepped into my room, I was 'greeted' by some fungi-like stuff on my cupboard sides. Expecting the worst, I opened the cupboard and I got so frigging disgusted. Oh God! Eww.

Spent about 5-6 hours cleaning my whole room, slowly. Started with the cupboard, of course.
Well, if it wasn't for the dumb dirty and disgusting thingy, guess I wouldn't have spent so long to clean everything in the room seriously. =p
I practically had to wash every single piece of cloth inside the cupboard.
Thank God we have a washing machine in the house.

By the end of it, I'm pretty glad because my room is well, cleaned. And my cupboard and stuffs reorganized. ^^
It's a good thing, no doubt.
But not to me at that moment, who just had a LONG journey back from Penang AND is very very hungry. =(
My brain and my body were pretty much like 'dead' for the night.

To add salt to my wound, I couldn't even sleep well.
And I had another weird dream.
I dreamt that I woke up in PENANG!! Haha.
And I was pretty shocked [though happy ^^].

Weirdest part was, I don't feel like it was a dream.
It was so frigging real, I recall thinking and asking myself how could it exactly happens. I most definitely couldn't have sleep-walk my way back. XD
Even weirder I told myself that if I was really still in a dream, how much more awake do I have to be than then to be awake from that dream.
[God, it is so deep.]

Karen laughed, saying it is too soon for homesick. It was just the first night.
I kinda think it's homesick too. But it is still pretty ridiculous to have such dream anyhow. =p
I'm back in Cyberjaya, because I have things to attend to. What more, I get to be home again next week. Isn't it soon enough already? ^^

Probably I do realize that this new trimester is so gonna be so hectic and tiring and stressful.
I've got 6 subjects and CCNA and C.A.R.E. Fair. *phew*
That's why I'm very lazy to face it and am trying to runaway. To escape from my responsibilities.
Knowing it wouldn't happen realistically, hence the dream? Maybe. ><

Game On!

Today, I kinda did something really unexpected. Even by myself. Haha.

While we were busy shopping in Queensbay today, we heard of some game going on at the ground floor.
And it is non other than this one.

http://www.mix.fm/oap/07/mix_gameon/main.asp

And guess what?!

I unexpectedly registered myself. I was kinda surprised too.
But hey, it was an experience to earn right.

I was feeling pretty awkward and shy at first. [Embarassed more, I think.] Haha.
Whatever it is, it was crazy.
I actually thought of chickening out. But I didn't quite give myself that kinda option. *winks*

The prize for winning would be a voucher worth RM250 from Padini.
Haha, and that would mean free New Year's clothes for me and my Sister. IF I win, of course.
But unfortch, I didn't make it. I only managed to come in second.
Check out what I got instead. *laughs*

Well, no. I don't think it's sad or anything. I kinda like them indeed. ^^
I actually think this was pretty fun and a pretty good experience.
My first try. [ Wonder why I had to bump into Calvin though. =.= ]

New Shoes, Finally.

Yup yup yup. Finally, I have found the perfect shoe that I had been searching for! Hehe.

Obviously I am not one who would usually pay that much of money to buy a shoe.
I’m really glad that after my long search through high and low, near and far, I have finally found one that I really like and have nothing much to complain about. Hehe.

Most importantly, one that my family agrees to!! *winks*

Wadya think?

It shall be kept for Chinese New Year.
Oooo...I can’t wait for CNY!!! *giggles*

Pet Fish, What’s It Worth?

I went to the Chew Thean Yang pet shop today with my parents. We needed a new water filter for our little aquarium at home.

CTY is this place where one can get a complete set of everything that one may need to start off the hobby of rearing fishies. From the aquarium tank to the fish food to the medicine for treating any fish infections or illnesses, one can get it all here.
CTY is probably my Mom’s one stop solution centre for our fishies at home. =)

While I was choosing some new fishies to be added to our aquarium, I saw one goldfish floating capsized and the other goldfish were biting on it, eating it. Looking at it makes my heart sore and I could look no more.
Suddenly, these thoughts slipped into my mind.

Are these little fishes safer in my home aquarium?
Are they actually luckier to have been chosen by me?
Do they feel lucky?

Their little lives are so fragile. And I was suddenly reminded of the books I read back in my childhood about children crying and mourning over the death of their goldfish.
I had a couple of goldfish of mine dead since our little home aquarium is set up. I do feel a slump in my heart everytime I see them passing on. But, how long the pain actually lasts?
The next moment you would see us planning to buy another one to replace the one lost.
All I thought of is that, the goldfish is in a better place now. [Corny? I know.]

However, there’s this one goldfish we used to have which left the deepest impression in me.
This little goldfish got caught in between the suction of our tank filter by accident one day and then things got really sad.
It lost an eye, and it sorta had brain damage. It could not swim properly anymore. It practically could only float, upside down.
It could no longer linger around with the other fish and was all alone. Floating directionless, like a lost boat in an ocean.
Everytime we would have to isolate it for feeding where we are required to hold it in our hand and practically force the food pellets into its mouth.
It is so sad seeing it then, because it takes a pretty long and hard time to swallow the pellets.
The saddest part had to be the fact that there is no way to cure it or to make it better. All mainly because it was only a fish. *sigh*

I sometimes wondered, what would I have done if I were the little goldfish? Would I actually be as strong?

Sorry to say, there are times that I have prayed that God will just take it away. But I was never courageous enough to send it away.

And then one day, this strong little goldfish is gone. I was actually relieved. Happy, as a matter of fact.
I guess I’m glad that it’s sufferings are finally over. It was a pretty strong one though, to have survived all these while. It had definitely fought well.
And then another thought came to my mind.

Was it worthy?

Reunion and Farewell.

For the first time this year and for the first time since I got home for holiday, I finally had the chance to meet up with two of my closest friends in Penang.

Catherine just got home for the long weekend. And this Sunday, both will be leaving for Kuala Lumpur. *sigh*

Yes, finally Kuan Gaik has decided to go for UCSI in order to pursue her degree in mass communications. Truthfully, I am really happy for her. But sadly, I’m not really sure if her mind has really been made.

Considering the ‘problems’ she has in mind, Catherine and I had quite a tough time assuring her of what she really has to focus on. Or more precisely, advising her of what should be done.
Of course, I cannot tell her what to do but rather just giving her comments and hopefully, advises.

Funnily, she’s proven herself to be really fickle-minded as well. Obviously, she has the answers in her head and she knows exactly what our answers [or better said, suggestions] would be too.
However, the feminine side of her is being, of what Cath would call, irrational.
It’s pretty funny seeing both of them arguing and debating of what a girl needs.
Of course I was not left behind in this girls-talk as well. And quite shockingly, this lil’ discussion lasted for around 4 hours, from Sakae Sushi to McDonald’s. Haha.
But I doubt our friend here has yet to be firm with her final decisions.
Personally, I still think it’s pretty foolish if you would let go of this chance in UCSI just because of trust issues.

My friend, I just hope for you to be certain of what your decisions are and stick to it. Don’t change your course just because of some last minute ‘adjustments’ to what your perfect plan should have been.
Bear this in mind, if trust is such a big issue, it's probably time to let go.

Just like what I initially said to you, why not just give it a try? You'll never know unless you try, right?
And by trying also, you would never have the chance for regrets to slip in later telling you that it could have been great IF you had tried.

And seriously, I’m pretty jealous because the two fellas get to stay together.
It’s always nice to have someone close like Cath to be with, though this study-freak bookworm might stress anyone even more than everyone in the world combined together. Haha.
Ok, that was a pretty exaggerative statement there. Anyhow, I know that it will all be so fun. =)

Hopeful to see you in KL, my dear Kuan Gaik. Hopeful to have us both graduating together at the same time! *winks*

Take care and don’t think too much. I know you would feel down and probably even depressed at first, considering this is the first time you are leaving Penang for studies.
Well, I’m obviously speaking out of experience. =.=
But I’m sure you’ll be able to get through this pretty soon. Plus I know Cath will be there. So everything will be alright. *winks*

Good luck and have a safe journey, both of you. If possible, we shall meet up in KL and shop together ya. =D

Rasa Sayang Dinner Buffet.

As initially planned and as a treat for me being 'old', I was brought here for a little enjoyment.
Though my family were supposed to dine together tonight, my parents had declined to join considering that they aren't exactly the biggest fans of the buffet concept.
Understanding them well enough, it's best that we leave it that way. :\

You know, since Rasa Sayang Resort's huge renovation project and then it's grand re-opening in 2006, this is the first time I'm there again.
Being in the resort again definitely brings back lotsa good ol' memories. Childhood memories.
However, the feeling is somehow different. Somehow Rasa Sayang isn't quite as 'homey' as it used to be.

Well, my Dad used to work in the old Rasa Sayang.
Story is, we used to get complimentary stays in the resort. Being a child, I was always excited about this, even if it's only for a night over the weekend.
And it is something that I loved to brag about too. Can't blame a kid, can you? =p
Air conditioning, carbonated drinks, swimming pool, etc.
Those were pretty appealing to me back then. :">

Funnily enough though, the thing I enjoyed most about those stays was the fact that it is where my Dad works. Even more, I enjoyed meeting the people my Dad works with. ><
So I guess it's somehow the little child in me feeling that the old staffs were friendlier. Reminiscing the good old 'pals'.
Probably it's because the old 'pals' were my Dad's colleagues, and the fact that they know me.
Haha.

Anyway, the luxury is even more luxurious today. Being the only 6-stars hotel in Malaysia, it definitely is obviously awesome!
And the staffs are pretty serious about the rules, too. ;)
I was really excited about the dinner buffet.
But perhaps I had made early comparisons with Jogoya in Starhill, Kuala Lumpur. ><
I'm not exactly writing a food critic's review here in my blog.
But personally, I do still love the food served.

First, we started with the appetizers. We started light.
Nevertheless, the seafood served at the same counter was really tempting. The lobsters and the oysters were especially alluring.
Mm mmm. I can't still taste the freshness of the seafood in my mouth right now. [Exaggerative? Yeah =p ]

My personal most favourited dish is definitely the lamb satay. It is so de-li-cious that I couldn't help but go for second and third helpings. *drools*
My Sister on the other hand loved the lobsters and the sashimi the most.
And the tiramisu. [Coffee freak, she is. Hehe.]

After attacking the main course, it's time for yummy-yummy dessert. The whole display desserts is so beautiful that I wanted to keep one of each kind. ^^
Heading to the ice-cream counter, I was pretty disappointed again as I was kinda expecting to see Haagen Dazs ice-cream, and a whole wide range of flavours to choose from indeed.
Imagine the slump I felt when I saw the only 4 different flavours served [namely: vanilla, chocolate, strawberry and coffee.]
Pardon me, but I was really looking forward to dive in to the super-yummy-tummy ice-cream.
But, the wish of the kid in me was not fulfilled.

The best thing I've always relate Rasa Sayang with are the cakes. Chocolate cakes, especially. *drools*
However, this time, I was quite reluctant to 'dig in' to the cakes served at the counter.
Main reason being the cakes not cut nicely and are kinda like melting.
At first glance, one may think that those are ice-cream cakes. Hehe, no, it is not.
Undeniably though that the cakes are really delightful, but I'm still not quite keen about taking and putting it onto my plate.
So, I stole them bit by bit from my Sister's plate instead. Hehe. ^^

Overall, it was still a great dinner of course. Beautiful environment and fantastic food.
What more can I say? We stil left the place bloated. Haha.

Check out this link to the Spice Market Cafe. =)

A huge thank you to my sister and her friend for this wonderful treat. *winks*

Home Alone.

It’s been 3 days. And I thought it would be...I dunno, fun? Well, at least for a little while. *shrugs*
Guess I was wrong. Pretty wrong indeed.

Dad’s working. Sister’s working. Nothing unusual. But where is Mom?

Mom is helping out at Aunt’s place. What kinda help? Good question.
It probably ain’t something my Mom enjoys most, but it is anyhow what she had been doing for a long time. And by ‘long time’, I do mean years long.

My aunt opens a confinement centre. She had been having problems finding people for the job. So months back, she called my Mom and asked her for help. At first, it was only for a few days.
And I was one who supported the idea considering that my Mom is so bored staying home alone everyday.

But now....
It’s like as if my Mom is working permanent at the centre. And I’m beginning to dislike it. Not only has it left me home alone, it is also taking up the quality time for me and my Mom. *sigh* Boredom.

More importantly, I don’t see my Mom enjoys this anymore. Well, for one, it is so tiring. Imagine taking care of NINE babies at one time. And that is not even the maximum number yet.
Yes, of course, there are other workers around but you wouldn’t wanna know how many workers they only have. *sweatness*

Anyway, my Mom said she’ll only work on every Monday to Wednesday.
Should I be happy hearing this? I doubt so.

I find myself really non-productive these couple of days. All day I have only been watching drama. I only work when I have to.
I had plans to leave my house, yes. But something always comes up. Same ol’ things. And I end up sticking my eyes on the TV set. =P

I miss my Mom nagging me. Haha. Problem is she still does. She would come home and find me lazing around. That pisses her off alright. And so, there goes her ticking bomb. Timing ain’t good. XD

Tomorrow is a public holiday. Or something like that, I believe. We’re heading to our house in Farlim to clean-up. But we are not moving in. Still wondering what are we gonna do there tomorrow. Hmm. *shrugs*
It’s still way better than staying home alone. =D

Oh, by the way, I know I have said this to you. And I know this is one day late here. But, I just want to say this to you here. Officially. =P

Happy Birthday Juin Hau! We’re finally 21! ;)

Happy Birthday to Me.

Lala lala to me...

Long-awaited day has finally arrived. I am finally 21.
Legal to vote, legal to enter to casinos. *smirks*
[But then again, it isn’t like I have never entered before. *naughty grin*]

Here are the big babies~

It’s good to celebrate with Juin Hau. Why? The reason is pretty simple, and mean.
He’s like the shield for all bullying that was supposedly meant for me. ^^
This year, he ‘shielded’ two attacks for me! *grins*

The first attack.

The second attack.

*evil laugh* Thanks Juin Hau!! ^^
I still vividly remember that last year he did also saved me.

This year, our celebration was in One Utama. I actually got there earlier with Lee Na, Karen and Hui Ying to shop around first.
The rest just wanna rest [a.k.a. sleep] or gonna have another paper later the day.

A whole day we walked and shopped around, from the new wing to the old wing and back and there again. We seemed kinda lost at times indeed. Haha.
I got this dress which I actually planned to keep for Chinese New Year. But I got forced [nicer substitution for the word would be "persuaded"] to wear it on that night itself.
Ahakz. It was pretty awkward. No...it was REALLY awkward!!
Yaya, I can imagine the look on your face already.

Dave's was a pretty nice place to be. A nice place for a celebration too. And the person-in-charge there was as well, nice.
But...he treats alcoholic drink to birthday fellas. Thank God, he didn't quite realize it was a celebration for both of us. *phew*
Pity Juin Hau though, cause he had to gulp the 'fiery' drink down. He was pretty drunk after that.
I did take a teeny weeny sip of it. And I seriously meant I took just a TEENY WEENY sip of it.
Good God, I can't take it though it does tasted a bit like dark chocolate with a little of minty taste. Haha.

The food in Dave's was awesome too.
The pasta was 'mamma mia'! And the pizza was 'super mamma mia'!!

[Oh, one fine photo got ruined by a misplaced fork >< ]

Oh oh oh...and I got a birthday kiss. *blush*

[This is Lee Na who actually came all the way from Malacca to visit me! How sweet of her. ^^ ]

Again this year, I get two birthday cakes. Happieeee.

Due to some circumstances, initial plan at home was unable to be carried out. *sigh* So much for the anticipation.
But it's still aight. Considering I'm home and all. What more it is on this special day. ^^ My special day.
And we went to Eden for dinner. It's been such a looooong time since I last step foot into Eden. Oh, the good ol' memories. ^^
I somehow felt like time really flew on by so fast. That I should start cherishing every moment of it. [Ain't like I don't anyway. Hehe.]

A BIG thank you to everybody for everything.
The wishes, the celebration, the love, the presents. Oh, i mean it. Everything. ^^
Thanks for making this 21st celebration of my life so special and definitely one to remember till the end of time. ^^

Biggest thank you to my family.
To whom, this life would never be without any of them.
To whom, I owe my everything to.
To whom, I am who I am today.

Love you guys all from A-to-Z, head-to-toe, front-to-back, now-till-eternity! *mwahhhhhh*

Official End of Gamma Trimester Two.

I actually just finished 'beautifying' this blog page. Not quite satisfied with it, except the fact that it is blue. Found another template which I might like, but not wanting to waste my effort for like the past 1 hour editing tis-and-tat, I think I'm gonna stick to this template for awhile. =)

Been lying here on the sofa with my laptop since coming home from exam.
I don't even know if my head's in this right now. Plain laziness strikes again.
Just don't seem to want to do anything right now.

Well, at least finally I've finished my exams for this trimester. So, I can afford some rest and entertain the lil devil for awhile.
I'm feeling a lil moody right now too actually. No thanks to the last paper which is unexpectedly hard. Basically, I'm at the stage where I'm in fear that I might get a C-grade for this subject. If not, failing it. This is like history repeating itself.
God, this is not good! ><

On the bright side, semester break has officially started for me and my fellow Nanotech friends.
What's done is done. I'll know how badly I've 'scored' when the results come out. I just hope I can stop myself from thinking of it right now.
Probably with the arrival of Miss Ngion Lee Na, I'll be smiling again? =/

Holiday mood will definitely checks in right after this. And I'll be welcoming it with arms wide open. *winks*
But for now, I shall drown in sadness on my date with Mr Zhao.

Happy Holidays, Multimedians! Have a safe journey home, near or far.
Take care and see ya guys next semester~ *cheers*

First Nightmare of the Year.

And it was....scaryyyyyyy.

Well, it wasn't supposed to be so scary if I was not alone in the room. This is the second time in my life I actually experience such a dream. The first was back at home, years ago.

The story is pretty simple. I got really stressed from studying and decided to call it a day. Get some rest and continue the next day. It was around 30 minutes past 3 in the morning. I went to bed, get comfortable and dozed off.

Then suddenly I felt it, I couldn't move a limb. I tried to open my eyes, but to no avail.
I swore I could 'see' though. Everything was pretty normal except that I couldn't move nor wake up. It felt like something were pressing me down, hard.
I don't know what happened, and I got up. That's not after fighting over it for awhile though.
[Or was it just me thinking I got up? Hmm...]

Anyway, I was really beat up yesterday's night and very quickly, I slept back.
Unfortunately, the 'boogeyman' came back to attack. Once again, I could not move at all. I only felt the 'pressure' on certain parts of me when I tried to move them. Somehow, this second time is scarier than the first.

Then comes the worst part of all. I started to hear noises. It started soft, from way top of my head.
And it got louder, and louder. It first started to sound like some sort of grill, and it sounded like it is getting me, going through my head. Like cutting it open.
I know, this sounds like I got too obsessed with 'Heroes', huh. Haha.
I felt silly too, IN THE DREAM!!

I was so afraid I would feel the pain, and the fear was unbearable.
Then like it was trying to play a joke on me, the sound of grilling changes to the sound of a motorbike. I saw a motorbike, so it was confirmed what the sound was.
The best part? I saw the motorbike...in my head! Oh God!
Can this get any normal?!
And the voice of a man talking in my dream doesn't exactly help making me feel normal anyway. I don't even know what he was saying!

Not being able to accept any of the crap anymore, I struggled even harder.
Everytime I thought I got up, I find myself back in the lying position again.
Few more tries and I practically jumped off my bed. I stared at the blank above my bed, expecting to see some naughty 'thing'. You know what I meant. =p

I quickly went to Kelmynn's room, hoping to crash in for awhile to calm myself down before trying to sleep again. But they were all asleep.
Thank God Alvin and the girlfriend were still awake, so my house isn't exactly quiet and dark. I quickly buzzed everyone I know whom might not have yet sleep, and chatted with them. *phew*

Thanks guys for accompanying me, and calming me down. I felt really silly getting all so frightened by this little dream. Believe me, I still do.

Well, everything is alright now. =) I had a pretty good night sleep after that.
And I lived to tell you this. *winks*

Stressful New Year's Day?

I so cannot believe that my second post in this blog is gonna be about how stressful I am feeling right now. I seriously wish to just open my mouth and shout out loud.
Missing the time in Langkawi when we hiked up to the top of the waterfall and just shouted, LOUD! Ahhh, the joy of it!

Back to reality. Here I am right now, in front of my computer. I have tried studying the whole day today.
Just don't seem to be able to grasp the right 'method' in understanding this subject. Not much time is left until the exam on Friday.
Oh God! Can somebody save me from all this?

*sighs* To be true, I don't know myself what is this 'somebody' needs to save me from. I know very well indeed that what I'm going through right now is exactly what I NEED to go through MYSELF. And I so need to do it well.
Right...that's pretty motivating. ><

The Start of a New Beginning.

3...2...1...

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2008!! *cheers*

And so it marks another new beginning to a new year. Undeniably, I had been anticipating for this day for a long time. One reason being this blog. Call me crazy, call me dumb.
But I am the kind of fella to whom dates can be a pretty important factor in life.
Hence, I had been waiting for this special day to start off this new blog.
[Well, this is also a good excuse for being lazy to blog *winks*]
One other reason that this new year is so anticipated is the upcoming 6th January. *grins*

Now, having this as the first entry here, it should be a perfect entry. Right?
However, I'm still searching for a definition of a 'perfect entry'.
Having not blogged for almost a year now, I’ve pretty much rusted inside out.

New Year 2008 celebration is pretty much stressful, with 80% of the mind still stuck on dont-know-what-to-do. Plus 90% of the day of not studying.
Oh, the guilt! ><

Anyway, the New Year MUST still be celebrated. So, we headed on down to Putrajaya and was kinda awkwardly counting down to the New Year there.
Best part was this year, they had fireworks! We kinda suspect that the fireworks were leftovers from the Fireworks Competition they had back in August. But it was still awesome!

The 'yumcha' session was...indescribable(?). We actually had our very first lesson of the year there. The 'important'-money-cant-buy lesson of
how-to-SS-with-the-correct-angle. *ahakz*

It was great how we all got together for a little and hang out even with all the stress from studying in mind.
At least we did countdown to this new start together-gether.
At least we weren't alone. ;)

Here's to the beginning...and the end! (and the continuous!) *cheers*
May we all get peace of heart, plentiful of happiness and laughter, a great bundle of prosperity and a whole lot of great health in the year 2008!
