23th december 2008

went out with Chiausim, Nicholas, Joan and meet up Justin at pyramid. it was fun! because it had been a long time since my last meet with them, especially Chiausim. we used to meet each other everyday for past few months. i had so many stories to update! we watched Twilight, which is kinda interesting! gonna read twilight (book), thanks to Chiausim! then we went window shopping, choose some shirts for Chiausim coz she said she wana change her dressing style next year, to look GENTLE and ELEGANT. okie, u doubt right? so do i haha! but anyways, i advised her on some feminine attire.nah, im fashion advisor! Joan wana buy pillow, we teman her for a while. i wana buy eyeliner, we ran to all the make up stores in pyramid to look for the eye liner. end up, i bought it at the FIRST shop we went in. aiks. spent some time. after that, Joan suggested us to eat in Pancake house. nah, see the pictures!it looks so ADORABLE! the small jug is for us to add on honey on the pancake. next time u can keep this pancake house as an option to dine in. it lets u feel like as in u are at home! very comfortable!
the cute little small jug and I! urrgghh, my face looks rather chubby right? soree, keep eating non stop in past few days!


24th and 25th december 2008

okie, i went genting with my family. didn't feel like going one, coz i prefer count down with my friends. but dad force me, so? yeah...
this year genting was kinda quiet compared to last time. out of my expectations, there wasn't Christmas countdown activities! i had been waiting at the plaza since 10pm, but no Santa, No Caroling and i saw a lot of YOUNG COUPLEs( young goes to those high school kids) were waiting like me! end up, i sneaked into a bar, at which a live band was performing! there was kinda high, totally irony of out there. ordered mocktail which doesn't contain alcohol( i scare i drunk again). VIRGIN MARY. bloody hell, it was seriously virgin, cost me RM23.80 for tomato juice with some pepper sauce and salt. aiks, should order cocktail,maybe it will taste better? then the next day i played at outdoor themepark, and became baby sitter to look after my brother and sister
my little brother and I in the cabel car. it was freezing cold there with mists! urgh, kinda blur, cnt even see outside. see my hair? the wind was strong too!

three of us!

i dressed in scarf and cardigan. see? i told u, i felt very cold! if u know me well enough, u should
know i always feel old. and aiks, i forgot to wear my boots! it will look better if i wear my boots.
okie, i purposely one. i always do this, eating ice cream at genting! syoknya~ haha, and Chan taught me a new way of eating Mcd french fries, which is dipping the frenchfries in Mcd sundae cone! hey it was awesome! haha...


27th december 2008

the day which i suppose to help my mom cleaning the house. but my best buddies invited me to sg wang to shop for new year clothes. well actually i had bought my clothes and it's more than enough. but still, I WANA SHOP! so my mom finally let me go and i had really enjoyed having fun with my dearest buddies! ah yong, xuan, ah qun, ah ping and some guys! i feel comfortable and normal when i am with them. sometimes i feel i m a little alienated in my Kisiao gang because im the only one who eats extremely spicy, who dress a little "la la", who enjoy shopping than ever! but when i am with them, they are exactly the same like me! for example, im an expert in eating sambal or chili sauce, another friend of mine is good in eating chili padi. we not only eat moderate spicy food, we eat extraordinary spicy!!!!haha...okie enough of crapping, i spent RM75 for two dress, 1 t-shirt and a pair of shoes! it's so freaking cheap especially in times square! my friends bought more than me, yong she bought 12 items!in only 4 hours!hello, im not rich and i don't really love branded clothes, so sg wang and time square are the best places for me! enjoy...

before depart to sg wang. camwhore at qun's house and waiting for them

yong and i! actually i had taken pictures with others, but it takes so long for me to upload, so just forget about it

dang! my new hair style! my fringe is kinda short, hope it will grow longer when it's cny

signing out to sleep! tata~



Sleeping,

finally, im BACK!

im back to my computer, err...to be more precise, my MacBook.

im back to my lovely home after spending 2 weeks of my holidays for campS.

im back to my TV and drama series! i didn't watch TV since the second semester begins, which is around mid of august i think? amazing right? i used to watch TV everyday when i was in high school. now i feel old because i don't really interested in watching drama series anymore. i watch just for the sake of watching, not enjoying. anyways, im watching moonlight resonance (ga hou yuet yuen)

sorry for less blogging these few days. i was really busy. let me give you a brief review of what have i done in the past two weeks.
1. on 12th december 2008
i have my public speaking musical play. this bloody play stressed me up for a few weeks and we had a lot of internal conflicts. i feel frustrated as i have to work with some particular people who don't care about the play at all. how irresponsible isn't it? the play seriously drew me to the corner of exploding. cried for lotsa times. but luckily it didn't screw up at the end. instead, we got full marks!!*clap clap*

2. from 12th- 14th december 2008
i have aiwoqingnian camp in dongchan. well, it's a buddhist camp and i felt guilty because i didn't help my friends out for ANY preparation before the camp. even i have excuse such as finals and stuff, but still i felt bad. but anyways, the camp turned out well. we influenced the participants about our theme or concept for this year - we are family. the result was satisfying. they all got closer and closer with each other, and began to believe other people. this is the best thing throughout the camp. not forget to mention, i got flu in the camp, and lose all my voice.sob~~i sound like a frog!

3. from 13th- 18th december 2008
i have full day dance practice as we gonna have a performance on 19th dec. but actually i ffk my friends on 13 and 14th dec. 13th because i guessed they will not do anything yet. i know them well, they have the ability to organize things but the only weakness is they always do last minute job. and it's proven. they spent the whole day discussing and didn't learn ANY of the dance moves. then 14th dec i went for my undang test. thank godness i pass! yeah!after that, from 15th to 18th dec, we learned the dance moves and practice the whole day! i was sweating like crazy and my body ache as i seldom dance so much recently. plus, the performance was approaching, we have intensive practice, from 9am to 6pm. deduct lunch time and breaks, we practice for about 7 hours per day! it's freaking tired. my mom was nagging me at that crucial period which made me feel irritating. to make things worse, the dance was kinda tough. it's different from cheerleading, it is more to the combination of new jazz and hiphop. the song was only one minute, but we havta repeat some steps for a lot of times! i havta look SEXY and SEDUCING at the same time, which is the worst thing ever. ewww, cnt imagine JoJo look sexy...

3. from 19th to 21st december 2008
we have another camp. this camp is more complicated and a huge one. actually, it involves 13 areas in malaysia, like Ipoh, Segamat and so on. these 13 areas are the places that organize aiwoqingnian camp as well, it is somehow connected to my previous camp. we will have a performance competition and the best organized camp awards among these 13 areas. so allow me to come straight to the point, our performance won the most creativity award even we have done a lot of mistakes. then our area won another award as well on the next day of camp. we felt very bangga coz we are the only area that won TWO awards!hoho...

4. 22nd december 2008
my dad's birthday. and it's time to eat tong yuan. i plan to do it tomorrow for my family. maybe i will design a birthday card with photoshop for my dad? but my friends wana go shopping. should i follow them or shouldn't i?

5. 23rd december 2008
plan to go pyramid with chiausim and nicholas. i afraid that donkey loh auntie will ffk me coz she message me just now. i don't care. i wana shop for my cny clothes and buy a x'mas present for myself. thanks to my public speaking play which revolve around a X'mas theme, i am into the mood of celebrating X'mas for the first time in my life

6. 24th to 25th december 2008
become baby sitter. i really hate to become an elder sister. my family is going genting on X'mas eve. BUT, my parents are going for a concert, and i havta take care of my siblings, which means i cannot countdown with my KiSiao gang or other people in genting. i can only stay in hotel and keep my eyes on my brother and sister. hmmmpph, maybe i should accept abu's idea - bring my laptop, just in case they are annoying, i can still have fun with my MacBook. then maybe im gonna have another function at night after come back from genting?

7. 26th and 27th december 2008
cleaning up the house for CNY! even my maid always clean the house, there is still certain corner in my house that require renovate. i must help my family...so cannot have any better events

8. 28th december to 1st january 2009
i am free in this period of time. feel free to date me out, to prevent i rot at home. maybe i will finish all my kindaichi detective comics, watch dramas, and not forget to plan for student council. i have two posters on my way, but i don't have any inspiration yet. hopefully when im free, i will be able to design something. oh ya, anyone wana countdown for newyear? let me know k?

9. 2nd january 2009
a fully packed day in dongchan. will become volunteer and spend the whole night to cook porridge. yes, u r not color blind or short sightedness, PORRIDGE. y? i will update once i have done the activities.

finals over

Finals over! no more exam! and what's waiting for me now is HOLIDAY!

when i reflect on the whole semester, i realized that i have learned something more than i had expected. as i have expected at the beginning of semester, i will learn something new in my general psychology. indeed, i learned something, well not only something, is A LOT! i understand myself better now as in i know how people behave and why they behave under certain circumstances. i discovered i have BIPOLAR DISORDER, which is an abnormal psychological disorder includes series of manic and depression attack. okie, in short, i have severe mood swing. it is iNHERITED! now i know where i get this from haha.

by the way, i learned more than the academic achievements - events. this semester is the semester filled with events. from GMC, i was the cheerleader performer. well, i used to enjoy it very much but now i quit temporary as i feel i cannot afford it anymore. after that i have YOUTH BEATS talkshow. i was the fundraising leader for the talkshow, which suppose to brainstorm idea and try to raise fund. yeah well, it's a good experience for me, because i know how to deal with people from different background, especially when they weren't standing at my side. besides, i have my student council event - freshie party (again), car wash and etc. deep in my heart, i apologize that i didn't put lotsa effort in organizing SC event this semester, because too many events are on call, and they are my First priority!

on the other hand, friendship is what i gained too! KiSiaoUnited, if you follow my previous blog psot, you will know what i mean. (grin) we had launched a so-called "company" for our very HUGE gang of friends. and ur hum, i am the CEO. haha. despite of the company, we had developed a...complicated family tree in our clique. allow me to skip this because it is too...okie...complicated. i got to know new friends too! i didn't know about Lucille, Reuben they all in my first semester. they are seniors. i was living happily in my small world of friends before i knew them. they created an impact in my life because they are my role model and i wana be just like them in the future.

in other words, FAE is what i gained in this sem. F- friendship, A- academic performance, E- events. i appreciate all the support that i received, as well as obstacles and criticism. because they allow me to think beyond what i am now. i believe, all the tears that i had shed in this sem are worthiness! really, they WORTH!

and HAPPY HOLIDAY!

i am a Mac user!

logo for Mac


I am a Mac user now. i bought my very first MacBook yesterday! *clap clap*

well, i was influenced by Ivan, the Mac addict, who is also the junior sales in Machine @Sunway Pyramid. he always use his baby - his Mac to do all the graphic design as well as helping me with student council videos. the design and the fancy functions of Mac had grabbed my attention. compared to the other laptop that i used, (currently im using compaq), Mac is definitely taking over them, especially its appearance. it is WHITE! white indicate purity and sophisticated to me. i admit that the main reason i got addicted to Mac is because of the white design. i realise that i always captivated by those white color technology appliances. like my phone, a white w580i.

but normally, i will just stare at his Mac without second thought because MacBook is not that "economical" for me. what happened was, there's a sale in conjuction to the one year anniversary in Machine @ Sunway Pyramid. the refurbrished unit for MacBook cost only RM2799! can u see that? it is only 2000+ instead of RM3000 something! chiausim and i were tempted! because both of us always seek help from Ivan for all the design works. and somehow we felt guilty because all those are student council thingy but Ivan is not even member of student council! by the way, MacBook is much more glamour and artistic compared to the rest. so we came up with an excuse that our current laptops are senior citizens which can hardly function properly. (which is also a truth) and finally, WE BOUGHT MACBOOK!

dang! our MacBook!


i keep dreaming about my new baby from the day i just bought it. maybe i don't look that excited, but somehow my blood is pumping fast and adrenaline is rushing within me! i am extremely EXCITED!!!i was trying my very best to control my excitement and hormones. i can't use MacBook now because at the moment i start playing with it, i will be distracted from my studies. and finals is coming! how can i procrastinate?! so, solemnly i put my baby into its box, and insert it into the plastic bag. after that i hide it under my study desk. i havta keep my eyes away from it, otherwise my studies will be hanging on the air, and i can even foresee my result if i don't concentrate on my studies. i havta remind myself that, after finals, i can do whatever i like with my baby! so Mac is not only my new companion in college, but also my motive to keep me studying!

i really Can't wait to use it!

and now, i wana assure that, i am proud to be a Mac USER!*smile*

signing out to study! wish me all the best!

Alcohol

i drank alcohol for the very first time in my life this afternoon. surprise? yeah i felt the same too! thanks to ella, amelia, abu they all.

this afternoon, i was very very upset. really. something bad happened in the morning, i don't wana recall the memories any more. it's just too...how to say? the criticism which was more than my capacity. and i really felt tired, or exhausted. commitment is not the main criteria, attitude of people is worse than ever. i felt tired, really tired. and what you can guess is, i cried again.

i can barely stop crying this time. i had withstand all the things throughout the semester and finally i burst into tears. it was actually a good thing, because i cried instead of behave aggressively. whenever i tried to stop, another person will come and ask, "why you cry?", and the tears will shed again. this routine was repeated for 3 or 4 times today, i couldn't really remember.

what happened next was, i followed ella to her unit in sunway together with amelia, mabeline, felicia, abu and ivan. they all played with ella's puppy, which is very cute and noisy (but i didn't dare to touch him, please la, i afraid of dogs k? even he is a small puppy, he is still a dog!). so i was screaming around and hide behind anyone's back, and prayed that the puppy will never approach me. but abu, he purposely asked the puppy to get me. for no special reason the puppy was damn obedient. he kept approaching me! maybe he found interesting because somebody was running away from him and screaming non stop.

i was very tired because i cried a little too much, i felt emo as well. so they passed me the blueberry flavor alcoholic drink. hey, it's tasty k? it doesn't taste like alcohol, because it consists of only 5% alcohol. it tastes more to juice or soda. i drank only one quarter of the bottle (how much is one quarter of 275ml? count yourself) then i felt dizzy. seriously, headche and dizzy at the same time. so i fall asleep.

i wana insist that i wasn't drunk! i just felt headache and sleepy because i cried. so abu, stop teasing me k?

YOUTH BEATS is over!!

YOUTH BEATS finally end!!! after few months of preparation, this talkshow turned out to a blast and major success!

first of all, i will start with my story the day before the talkshow. chiausim stayed over at my unit because the next day we must be in the college at 7.30am. so in the evening, she wan me to accompany her to buy formal shirt to be worn on talkshow. as she has only the 101 shirt and wear it a lot of times for her presentations? nevermind, after helping a little to decorate the lobby for talkshow, we way up to sunway. in the meanwhile, i feel like i am more to a mother than a friend who suppose to give her advice. after she has chosen one shirt, she straight away pay it and wana leave without checking it.

"wait! let me check got dirts or any torn out or not?" i said
checking checking...
"hey here's a little bit dirty, do you have new ones?" i asked salesperson.
RELUCTANTLY, he gave me the new one. checking checking...
"hey here also quite dirty..."
another new one, and found dirt again. change!!
that person was quite furious and impatient d. i saw he was trying to control his anger. so what? I AM THE CUSTOMER!
at the end, she finally bought her so-called "Clean" shirt after opening 3 packs of new shirts! i am more likely to behave as a mother than a friend man!

after that, we went back to college to take our things. *actually funny things happened when we were waiting for the bus! for more information, check: kisiaounited.blogspot.com* and we felt tired, so sat in SC for a while. KONONNYA for a while, we actually sat there for half an hour. and kept talking about our high school life. very funny, suddenly recalled of our GENIUS FRIEND. then keep guessing how they study last time. when we suddenly realised that we had been stayed in college for too long, it was RAINING HEAVILY! but we still have to go back casa right? so chiausim with miniskirt and heels ran with me in the rain. n felt so sorry for our gen psy book. in order to protect us from some of the happy raindrops, they had sacrificed their last page. the last page was all WET and gonna torn soon. sorry to justin's and leonard's book.

by the way, we still kept talking last night. we were so bored that she turned on webcam with ivan. then 3 of us were like ohh, very boring la. what are you doing? those kind of stuff. chiausim was being extremely emotional. from very happy, kept laughing to damn angry and keep saying the F-language. and come back to hyper kisiao after lett drop by my unit. we took very funny pictures and videos. *anything please check kisiaounited.blogspot.com, we upload pictures there.* and watch funny videos in youtube. hence, we slept at 2am++ and woke up at 6am. it was really a difficult task for me to wake up. we actually snoozed for at least half an hour. and we were using the same ring tone!*it's avril lavigne's girl friend, excuse me it's only coincidence!* we always have the similar thoughts and do the same thing together. then we woke up with seriously swollen eyes! haha

reaching college around 7.40am. sorry for the Malaysian timing. im just too proud to become a Malaysian therefore i follow our culture. haha, michelle was already there. taking attendance and our tag. everyone is wearing very formal today! girls dressed up with miniskirts, heels and make up!!there's a lot of hot chicks in my class! while for guys, most of them looked like salesman with the ties! nicholas they all reached college 9 sumthing. before i got into my place to start working, i still managed to take pictures with them. nah, narcissistic ma!

i was the time keeper for the talkshow, so do michelle. our job is, sitting right in front of the stage , remind the speakers about the limitation of time. we had to show the cue cuts with " WRAP UP" , "5 MINUTES LFET" & "10MINUTES LEFT". hence, we had to pay full attention throughout the talkshow no matter it is a boring one or interesting one. EFFECTIVE LISTENING.
there!my cue cuts!from left: michelle, jojo chiausim with "WRAP UP" cue cuts!

first 2 speakers were JFK and Joel Neo with the topic: youth today. they shared about their experience deal with youths, opinion about PDA- public display of affection and so on. this was a good beginning for the talkshow because JFK can speak very well and humorous (Hitz. FM DJ ), while Joel Neo even he can't speak as well as JFK, his model body figure gain himself some marks! omg, he look like one of the korean artist whom i can't remember his name!
HE'S HOTTTTTT!!!

as what i said, he's HOT!!especially the deep dimple on his face when he smiled!!oh no, he's unavailable!

i worked very happy for the very first part of the talkshow. but, starting from the second part, i felt sleepy. okie, i know i know, Dr. Zaitun is our honor guest, but her way to deliver information was too idealistic, or rather too scientific. she's a psychologist and also a phd holder for hypnosis analysis. so she explained narcissistic generation with her psychologist's view that...err, i don't want to say, it will be offense. and anyways, one of our speaker couldn't make it today without any reasons! i really hate those who are unable to keep their promises! last minute, our savers: DR STEVEN(our head of department) came to save us! he was one of the mysterious guest after our host mentioned about the absence of the speaker. at least his appearance did not let the whole talk turned out to a bored one. last but not least, i had to mention about our host a.k.a our classmate - ANDREW NETTO! he was a really really great host! he was able to make everyone in the house to pay attention and humorous! he was like doing one man show! and thanks to him, our talkshow did not seem very messy due to the last minute absence of speaker. and how could i forget? LUCILLE!!she is the chairman for the talkshow, eerr okie, chairwomen. i don't wana have stereotype. she was an organized leader that gather everyone together to run this talkshow and make a major success for the show. she was not only a leader, she was already upgraded to a emotional support for everyone. when everyone was frustrated over something, she was there to chill everyone; when i felt demotivated for my fund raising project, she was the one who supported me all the way! thanks lucille, you are the best leader that i had ever met! and i hope i can be like you in the future! ROLE MODEL!!haha, special thanks to lett too! she did help a lot in my own fund raising project. and cheer me up when i felt gloomy. thanks lett!

the talkshow end. im gonna miss everyone. as what our classmate wrote, a bond named FRIENDSHIP had attached on everyone. i did not know any of the seniors in my previous sem, but i knew them now and worked together with them! i will miss the days!! thanks everyone!
