Wait

3 months of summer break seems to pass in a blink of an eye. I have 1 more month of break before classes starts, where i enter into my second year in Chemical with Environmental Engineering. I actually started my break since the 20th of May, freaking 4 months of break. Some of my course mates prefer to go for internship, where they pay you as little as RM500 for your petrol money and allowance. I know we are going there to learn but it also depends on which company you intern at. I have a feeling we will just go there and learn very little and end up being their KULI. Carry this, carry that, help me take this, take that, collect data? I seriously don't know what would i expect during an internship, but no matter what i still have to do it at the end of my second year as it's compulsory if i want to get my Masters. Instead of an internship, now i'm working as a waiter, at a Karaoke centre. My daily job is to welcome the customer, take orders, serve food, clean up af...

There's Been A Death In The House

Image
Not at the opposite house... not at my house... but at my Yeh Yeh's house... He passed away peacefully last Friday, 12th of August 2011, age 83. My yeh yeh was famous for his story telling. During family reunions, he would always repeat the same short stories or jokes. He usually told his stories and jokes in Cantonese and a little bit of other languages such as Malay. My father would always ask me to write them down or record it the next time he told it, but i thought it was unnecessary and i was feeling bored of the same old jokes since i've heard them umpteen times. Now, even if i want to hear it for another time, i cannot. I regret for not listening to my father, it's too late now, my yeh yeh's gone. My yeh yeh taught me many things when i was little. I used to stay with them(my mah mah and ku cheh) during the holidays(because i was such a nuisance at home that my parents decided to "buang negeri" me). He taught me Chinese calligraphy, taught ...

is the number of my hostel room. It's a six bedded flat, 3 rooms, 2 person per room. Checked out of the hostel today at 12pm(right after my last exam at 11.30am, horrible, terrible, vegetable i tell you...). Packed my stuffs, took one last glance, handed the keys to the cleaner/person-in-charge, loaded my stuffs on dad's car and off we go! Never really missed this place, although it has some good and bad... mostly bad... The Good Very near the sports complex. Just have to look out my bedroom window or balcony and i would know who is there to play basketball with. The balcony. Get to hang my clothes there without worrying anybody stealing them. Get to sit there and enjoy the wind at night, best place to read a book at night. Nearest hall to the Student Association building(which is where i get my food!) and the rest of the other buildings. There are a total of 5 halls : Tioman, the one i was staying in; Langkawi, Redang, Pangkor, and Kapas. As if by giving these halls such beaut...

Finally an update after so long, been really busy with university, or just too lazy, or because nothing interesting has been happening. Been reading other people's blog, feeling so much inferior, got me wondering what is the reason i blog. After pondering for a while, the purpose i blog is so that i can improve my English, i will try to construct proper sentences and improve my vocabulary. Besides that, i just like to put my thoughts into words, probably this will serve like a diary to me(but of course leaving out the juicy stuffs...) Anyway, the main event that ignited my will to make an update is an incident that happened last two days. Just like any other Friday, I was taking the KTM back home to Subang from Kajang. Got on to the train and took a seat beside this big guy with a luggage while on my right was a Malay lady wearing a colourful tudung. Just as the train reached the next stop which was Serdang, just as usual, as the train door slides open, a group of passengers rush i...

Welcome... Year 2011

I know this post is a bit delayed but anyway HAPPY NEW YEAR 2011 everybody! May this year be more exciting, better to me and everybody else! This year i spent my NYE at Wai Hong's house together with a bunch of friends... All we did was play the PS2, laptop and then we watched Lord Of The Rings : Fellowship Of The Ring. It was like my first time watching it and they couldn't believe it... Saying LOTR is better than HP so much more, i mean everybody has different taste okay... Somemore i didn't have the chance to watch the movie last time eventhough i knew the movie and book existed... Yene-way(like how my ACP lecturer would say...) I would like to continue the rest of this post of me going back to USJ13 I went back to my secondary school last week to accompany my sis to buy her books. While she was queuing up, i decided to walk around the school and man... it brought back so much memories... I tried recalling where was my class located but in the end i just entered one o...

So lazy to update my blog... lost some interest and self esteem after seeing other peoples' wonderful blog Back from Youth Dhamma Camp 19 - Heart-Core Buddhism which was held at Pahang Buddhist Association in Kuantan, Pahang and was organised by Subang Jaya Buddhist Association Youth Section. Thanks to all the committees and participants for making the camp a success. Thanks Donners... my team Thanks Swea Phin... our facilitator Thanks Forester... our leader (Real name! Not kidding!

Week 7... If you didn't know, i have joined 4 societies : Nottingham Buddhist Society, Chemical Engineering Student Society, Basketball Club (who won't?!), and Nature Club Am quite free most of the time so i decided to be a committee member in most of the clubs, wishing it'll fill up my free time and it's great for my CV next time right... Been coming back every weekend, still alive although i don't have a laptop there... WHO NEEDS EM? >:( food over there is okay (i particularly enjoy the oriental food where they sell omelet + "lice" + "fry" + some vege at the side), price normal... Sports facilities also okay, the only facility i frequently use is the basketball court, haven't been to the gym (i see most of the weights are missing and usually i'll be playing basketball than lifting weights in the evening...), swimming pool (shy la : þ ), football court, squash court, tennis court... been to the badminton court perhaps twice... As you ...
