This is what happens when sem is about to end.<br /><br />Well, tomorrow I'll have my last Physics quiz. And quiz weights about or more than half of the total marks. So far I think I got either below or on the average quiz score in class. Even after dropping the lowest score it's still very bad. Oh well, I'm expecting as last sem, probably a B range (B-, B or B+) score since I still have 1 last quiz and finals. If as last sem, I don't really go and calculate my score I can still cling on the (probably false) hope that I can get an A-. Hahahah.. So I only have room for a 90 or 100 score on tomorrow's quiz, and an above 90 for finals. Hmmm...<br /><br />So now as reminder, I'll study until half death, and the other half of my life would be used during exams. And then I can rejoice during the few (miserable) days of holidays. I can then read story books, watch movies, go walk around town, explore my new camera etc... Aaaahh.. simple and relaxing. Something to look forward to!<br /><br />Aha! There goes my self note. Now I have to resume studying. I still have a few pages of reading to do. And after that maybe go over some past year questions.<br /><a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_0vYb1srIPhU/SFHpPA61HYI/AAAAAAAAATI/Ds3mHhKaAc0/s1600-h/019.JPG"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_0vYb1srIPhU/SFHpPA61HYI/AAAAAAAAATI/Ds3mHhKaAc0/s1600-h/019.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5211202687998434690" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 276px" height="289" alt="" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_0vYb1srIPhU/SFHpPA61HYI/AAAAAAAAATI/Ds3mHhKaAc0/s320/019.JPG" width="204" border="0" /></a><br />Shhhh....<br /><br /><br /><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:85%;">Shhhhh,,,,,</span></div><p><span style="font-size:85%;"></span></p><p><span style="font-size:85%;"></span></p><p><strong><span style="font-size:130%;">Shhhhhh...</span></strong></p><p><strong><span style="font-size:130%;"></span></strong></p><p><span style="font-size:130%;"></span></p><p>Please keep quiet,</p><p>Shuenzu is studying.....

How un-motivating. But that's the case really.<br /><br />I got my Physics test 3 back, and actually did worse than 2nd exam despite working harder than the 2nd test. I avoided calculating my scores, so that I can perhaps still cling to some false hope and give it my all for my finals. But after receiving a sample calculation mail from my lecturer, I calculated my score anyway. And the best grade I can get is about B- or B, provided if I can get an (almost) full mark in my finals. For me, completing any subject below a B+ grade is as if I never taken the course, meaning I've learned or gained nothing from it. So it's really bad.<br /><br />I need to pull myself together and work my hardest in this last 2 weeks. Forget about every bad exams I had and just score the finals! I need to remember how good it felt when I really owned a paper! LOL @ my self motivation.<br /><br />So anyway, let's look at sth different. The weather now is really nice. lol. People must think I'm weird if I talk about weather in Malaysia. But weather is essential over here that everyone check weather.com or other weather sites frequently to get themselves prepared for bad (or good) weather. Btw, Americans really love good weather. On a sunny day, you can see Americans lying on grass enjoying the sun or reading a book. A lot of them also come out of their house chatting/playing. Lol, playing sounds childish. But they are playing outside of their house. There are even some of them who sat outside of their 2nd floor's roof chilling out. I should probably snap some pics to show you.<br /><br />Anyway Spring sem is coming. Just finished registering the classes. Really looking forward to it. Nice weather, and pretty good schedule. Hopefully a relaxing sem la, even though my friend told me my subjects too heavy.<br /><br />That's all I guess, I need to go studying liao.<br /><br />Side note: The wind is really strong outside, and according to weather.com there's gonna be severe thunderstorm (with red highlight around the weather column, i.e serious bad weather) right about now. Kinda looking forward for the storm lol. Also, strong wind rocks, even though they exposed my baldness.<br /><br />Oh and there's a fly in my room. How strange. First fly in Ann Arbor. Hope it has no mate to reproduce and die with no babies.

The night is silence.<br /><br />A gem, discovered in "George Is On" again, second time.<br /><br />It drew so much from me. It's amazing. My Steppin' Out part II. This is music.<br /><br />The loneliness that creeps in my kitchen. I savored it.<br /><br />A moment of reflection. It reminds me of why I'm here.<br /><br /><em>A tricky time never stops,</em><br /><em>A lucky time never stops, </em><br /><em>that moment passed me by without bothering to,</em><br /><em></em><br /><em>"Say hello.."</em><br /><br />It was a tough decision. A once in a lifetime chance let go in a split second's decision.<br /><br />I thought I'll mourn for a day. But solitary could be sweet.<br /><br />I felt like I'm in Einstein's 4th dimension, part of time itself. Without the constraint of time, it's pure joy.<br /><br />Oh, say hello to the world. Good morning.<br /><br />Moments like these are gold. My soul, stay gold.<br /><br />I miss you. I remembered. The very reason. Thank you. Say hello.<br /><br />Please stand by me.<br /><br />I promise I'll be strong.<br /><br />Say hello =)<br /><br />Translation:<br /><br />I decided to stay at house today and not join my friend in a spring/winter break Chicago trip. Trust me, it was a hard decision, made at last minute too. I hope it didn't cause any inconvenience to anyone.<br /><br />I remembered yesternight that the reason why I'm here, to study. Of course going Chicago with good friends could be a once in a lifetime thing. But there will be other chance. Another trip. I've been looking forward for this holiday weeks ago, precious time for me to catch up on studies. I did badly on all my first 3 tests. I got below the average score in my course for all 3 subjects. I was devastated. Never in my life had I felt as inferior. Of course in Intec, I used to get bad results too, but that's because I didn't put in any effort. I did, work hard this time around. And below average results is a big strike.<br /><br />I recovered nonetheless. I did not harp on it. Probably one of the best attribute in me is to be able to think positively and recover from sadness in almost a second. I made a promise to score above average in all 3 tests in my 2nd exam, to fix my mistakes. I knew this will be almost impossible if I give up my time for Chicago trip.<br /><br />I'll never forgive myself, either way. But rationally, my study still weighs more.<br /><br />It's too soon to say I made the right decision. But tonight was realization. "Say hello", a hidden gem in George Is On elicits so much from me. The kind of late night loneliness feel was all here again. The (almost) exact same feeling that Steppin' Out gives. It was a nice feeling, believe me. Sadness could be savored too. Just feel it when it's here, enjoy it.<br /><br />I miss a lot of things. They will not hold me back. They will push me forward. These are moments worthwhile to reflect on life. Why I was here. How I got here.<br /><br />I worked hard to get here, and I'll not let it go to waste.<br /><br /><del>It's too soon to say I made a good decision.</del> On second thought, I'm certain it's a good decision. Affirmative. I won't trade these moments. It belongs to me. Mine alone.

Actually I wanted to get my haircut next week, but then I thought what the heck, got people teman, so just go la.<br /><br />I reached there (times square) at 2. But she was late (as expected). Actually I was glad that she's late cos I wanna drop by borders to continue reading a book. You know how my friends are always late for an outing, I kinda picked up a habit while waiting for them. While waiting, I'll pick up a book from Borders to read. Of course this isn't necessary if my friends are late for like 5 or 15 minutes. But my friends.... they'll always be late for at least half an hour ZOMG. So this habit proved to be quite useful after all haha...<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_0vYb1srIPhU/R1WgN1qtY7I/AAAAAAAAAQA/BPvllZZP9Zc/s1600-h/lightningthief.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_0vYb1srIPhU/R1WgN1qtY7I/AAAAAAAAAQA/BPvllZZP9Zc/s320/lightningthief.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5140190709318247346" border="0" /></a>Last Friday when I was waiting for my friend, I went looking for Percy Jackson series in Borders and started reading Lightning Thief. When my friend finally reached an hour later (!!!), I have to stop at the juicy part of the story! The story then kinda stuck in my head for the next few days. That's why I was glad my cousin came late! I continued reading the book until after an hour, I realized I was still reading the book. What happened to my cousin?? Apparently her karaoke in Lowyat was extended an hour, and she was on her way to time square when I called her. -_-;;;; I wonder if I could finish the book though, before I go US. You know my mom actually forbids me to buy any more books. She said books are cheaper in US. Is that true?<br /><br /><br />And so when I met my friend we went for our haircut at Kimarie. When we reached there, the receptionist told us we have to wait for an hour! What..? So we walked around checking out christmas decor, winter clothings and other stores. Also there's this shop I came by that has a salesman who was very friendly, in fact too friendly to the point that it had became very pestering. He and another salesgirl practically swarmed me when I went in. When I spotted a cardigan and wanted to try it out, that guy then started giving me a 15 minutes lecture about how trendy cardigans are. >_<;; The cardigan was actually OK but the thing is they sold it for 70 bucks! I could probably get a similar if not better cardigan in a branded shop for a cheaper price. When we left the shop my cousin and I were both exchanging looks o_o. Later, we went back to Kimarie after we received a call from them. After consulting our hairstylists, my cousin decided to get her hair cut short while I just got my hair trimmed a lil. I really enjoyed the hair washing part. The assistant washing my hair squeezed the shampoo like it's tap water. She practically spent half a bottle on my hair! The shampoo is probably diluted but still. Then she also spent 10 minutes scratching and massaging my scalp. Ahh.. so nice.. haha.. I think after trying several saloons, Kimarie is still easily the best. I remembered the last time I went to Michael and Guys for highlight. The people there were so 敷衍 (cincai) when washing my hair. Also that bitch hairstylist cut my hair without even asking me first.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_0vYb1srIPhU/R1WrzlqtY9I/AAAAAAAAAQQ/Ucb5I7zFgAg/s1600-h/Image028.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_0vYb1srIPhU/R1WrzlqtY9I/AAAAAAAAAQQ/Ucb5I7zFgAg/s320/Image028.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5140203452486214610" border="0" /></a>So anyway, after hair cut we went for dinner. I suggested to go Jalan Alor and try their assam laksa! Actually I wanted to try it since last year when my friend syorkan to me. Summore this friend is from Penang, so he knows! haha.. So we walked along the street asking each stall who sells Assam Laksa lol. Then there's this lady who told us that someone down the street is selling it and she'll order it for me, then she asked us to sit down. Wa so terer do bussiness la. Then she cheated us eat mushrooms summore. She was like sambil intro-ing us the mushroom sambil writing it down on the order sheet.<br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_0vYb1srIPhU/R1WuXlqtY_I/AAAAAAAAAQg/K3GwYYnO-b4/s1600-h/Image024.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 221px; height: 294px;" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_0vYb1srIPhU/R1WuXlqtY_I/AAAAAAAAAQg/K3GwYYnO-b4/s320/Image024.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5140206269984760818" border="0" /></a>Then there's also this strange thing happened when we were eating. Every 5 minutes, there'll be a child walking pass selling tissue to us. Some lil girls even feign cuteness in their voice when selling tissues, and then switch language when selling to foreigners. So pro la that lil gal. I think these kids are from an organization or sth. Don't know la.. kinda pity them.<br /><br />Then when day stretched to night (so poetic), the people came selling things or asking money got stranger and stranger. Children were replaced by monks, monks replaced by old ladies... I wonder what's next if we stayed longer.

So we went to another.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_0vYb1srIPhU/R1Wwj1qtZDI/AAAAAAAAARA/1mBhXISTE5o/s1600-h/Image032.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_0vYb1srIPhU/R1Wwj1qtZDI/AAAAAAAAARA/1mBhXISTE5o/s320/Image032.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5140208679461413938" border="0" /></a><span style="font-style: italic;">We went to <span style="font-weight: bold;">My Buddy Health House<br /><br /><br /></span></span><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_0vYb1srIPhU/R1W04lqtZEI/AAAAAAAAARI/nQKUnwaqr2Y/s1600-h/Image029.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 259px; height: 194px;" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_0vYb1srIPhU/R1W04lqtZEI/AAAAAAAAARI/nQKUnwaqr2Y/s320/Image029.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5140213433990210626" border="0" /></a>We were greeted by a few of their staffs. When I noticed their rich Chinese accent I was already half skeptical. Sorry for stereotyping la can't help it. But then cos I was lazy to search for another reflexology store (if any) so I just went into this one. The guy who massaged me started rubbing left and right of my foot. Ok fine. But then he continued that motion for like almost 5 minutes. I was like for Pete's sake when are you going to start massaging? Then when he finally started massaging he made pretty damn sure that it inflicts severe pain on me. Cos he was surveying my expression every single time he pressed the pain spots. Then he'd ask "Pain?". I replied "Ok la.." and then put on the if-you're-not-gonna-massage-me-more-kuatly-im-gonna-doze-off look. Also, I noticed my cousin's massager and mine used different formula/style in massaging. That just proved that they don't really have a formula in their massage! And then when asked how she felt by the massager, my cousin was like saying "舒服..舒服..". I was thinking "really?". Then when we went out of the store, the first thing my cousin told me was that the foot massage sucks, and I was like LMAO LMAO LMAO. Really la, that shop turned out to be a bogus after all. For goodness sake, they even displayed "feet massage" on their banner. Isn't it suppose to be foot massage? Also, they only really massaged me for 25 mins. For me it's either exact time or over time, less time is not tolerable.<br /><br />---------------<br /><br />Sidenote: Anyway, did you notice the change of name for my blog? Haha..

Well, I refused to believe that. I mean how bad can it be? Even though I'll probably pay 100 bucks or more to skip the camp and stay at home, that's because I'm the lazy type who refuse to immerse myself in outdoor activities. But then again, if it's for karaoke, bowling, yumcha, watching movie, shopping, then that's different case la XD. Camping? Thanks but no thanks.<br /><br />Nonetheless, I was still able to remain positive about the camp. I was inspired by a line Mila said in ANTM. She said, "<span style="font-style: italic;">I think if you just concentrate on the positive, the negative things would just go away</span>". I know how naive it sounds, but it works for her. And in this case, I think it works for me too, as it was exactly through holding this thought that I was able to complete this camp on a bright note.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Day 1</span> - Nothing much happened. We enrolled in the evening at the camp and got ourself a room. But when we reached our room, our room was already fully occupied. But thank goodness, the few of us who did not have a room were assigned to another room. It was all cool cos the few of us kinda owned the entire room as there wasn't anyone else in that room.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Day 2</span> - <span style="font-weight: bold;">Ceramah</span> all day. OMG. This was probably the worst part. Ceramah from day til nite.<br /><br />The 1st speaker voice was so annoying. His voice interchanged between high and low constantly and abruptly. His voice was extremely loud one second and then super deep and low on the next. It's almost as if he's singing one of Mariah Carey songs that goes high and low all the time. If I were his Public Speaking lecturer, I'll most definitely fail him! I mean what's the point of going up so loud, we're not deaf, and there's a loudspeaker there for god's sake. Also cos of his fluctuating voice, we can't sleep in his ceramah >_<. <br /><br />The 2nd and 3rd speaker were also boring but I can't really remember in detail how they speak la. Primacy effect eh maybe? kakaka.. <br /><br />Then, there's the last speaker. His speech very much exceeded the time limit and he cracked damn lots of dry jokes. Maybe I'm the only one who can't get his joke, my mind was so blank at that point that I absorbed 0% of the things he said. The rest of the audience seemed to enjoy his jokes though. Hmm.. o_o <br /><br />The ceramah day was just a disaster la. I have to sit still on my chair for so many hours. I got really really restless during the ceramah. So restless, so impatient that I wished someone could just write my name on the Death Note OMG!<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Day 3</span> - The day in which <span style="font-weight: bold;">LDK</span> begun. LDK means Latihan dalam kumpulan btw. I was given the 1st surprise when I entered my room in LDK. Why??? Cos my facilitator was actually the 1st speaker from the ceramah. OMG yes, the Mariah Carey guy. But I was OK la. Maybe because I didn't expect much from LDK, I didn't really mind.<br /><br />During the LDK sessions, I kept myself as low profile as possible. Trying to be that lil bug in the corner observing everyone, I talked only when asked, and answered questions as succinctly as I can manage. But that changed during the night session when we're suppose to have a debate+discussion activity. I saw that faci scribbling non-stop on his paper when we're talking, I knew I can't keep quiet anymore. So I speak up a little la (voluntarily).<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Day 4</span> - LDK ended. Actually LDK was kinda fun despite me dozing off several times during the sessions. Blame that on the lack of time to sleep. 5 hours a day, what you expect.<br /><br />--------<br /><br />Also I soon learned that my LDK group was the best among my friends. I like my group mates, all of them. I don't talk much to them but that's because I'm reserved. I enjoyed my group mates companion and listening to their opinions. Also, the activities in our group were rather fun. Besides, I also learned quite a lot bout politics and our government. I still dislike politics though. They give me headache.<br /><br />Also, my faci is pretty open minded too, he accepts diverse views from us. He's really kind to us too. Besides, when LDK ended, he gave us some feedbacks about us too. I was kinda surprised at what he said about me. It was really true. Why I said I was surprised is because what he said bout me was something bout me inside, not sth obvious people will notice. It might even take my close friends a long time to notice, but it only took him 2 days. Hmm....!!!!!!<br /><br />LDK aside, I also like my <span style="font-weight: bold;">room mates</span>. They were really fun! Also we had quite a heavy discussion among us on the 2nd last day, which was quite an eye opener for me too.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Food</span> also, some are good some are OK, some are bad. The 'tea time' food are often very oily. Also, I like the whole wash your own plates policy too.<br /><br />The <span style="font-weight: bold;">physical test</span>. Haih suck at it la. Only got 60/80. It says there I'm physically 40++ years old O_O. Oh such a blatant lie. I passed the test anyway, so whatever la.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Kawad kaki</span> sucks also.<br /><br />Then about <span style="font-weight: bold;">exams</span>. It was really difficult. I was like WTF when I got the questions.<br /><br />------------<br /><br />Well, overall the camp is pretty enjoyable and meaningful too. I think if I started the camp thinking negatively, I probably would have ended up feeling miserable. Well, luckily I didn't.Kremlin Dusknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20979690.post-53255263408323424482007-11-13T12:42:00.000-08:002007-11-13T12:55:42.221-08:00Inversed Life<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_0vYb1srIPhU/RzoO6k2BifI/AAAAAAAAAP0/AxL3f4FtIFU/s1600-h/sleep.gif"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 256px; height: 280px;" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_0vYb1srIPhU/RzoO6k2BifI/AAAAAAAAAP0/AxL3f4FtIFU/s320/sleep.gif" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5132431124827572722" border="0" /></a>Yes Kremlin Inverse. <del>Intelligent type</del><br /><br />I think I'm living like a rat now.

Especially in times like this when I gatal wanna spend but not much money left! <br /><br />Yes, only last week I've withdrawn $500 and spent habis in less than half a day. Oh no. <br /><br />Last week, my friend went to teman me to hunt for some winter clothings. We walked from timesquare to Pavillion back to Lot 10 then again Pavillion and finally timesquare.<br /><br />We attacked the department stores first. I thought that department stores would be a good place to start cos last year around this time I remembered finding some really nice winter clothings in Debenhams. But damn.. Debenhams bankrupt already!! So we looked in Metrojaya and Parkson instead. To my dissapointment, only a really reallllyyy small </span><span style="font-size:100%;">corner in these department stores sell winter clothings. >_< <br /><br />So in the end, I bought 3 pieces of clothings </span><span style="font-size:100%;">(a long sleeve shirt, a jacket and a T-shirt).</span><span style="font-size:100%;"> All non winter wears o_o. The jacket is suppose to withstand cold, but really la, it's only Genting standard kind of cold. I might need to wear like 10 layers inside if I wanna wear that in US. But wth, I still bought it, I thought it has a reasonable price for jacket of that kind, and I thought it's quite nice. And moreover, my another really nice friend came to Pavillion just to help me buy that shirt using his sister's voucher. That would give my jacket and another T-shirt a 20% discount. How could I resist the temptation! So I thought maybe I'll use that as my Fall wear or sth.<br /><br />Since I bought that jacket, my parents have been really skeptical with my choices of winter clothings. I told them I know that isn't a suitable winter clothing, but still they insist to assist me in choosing my winter wears. O_o.. Not gonna let that happen though. kakakakaka~<br /><br />Anyway, I also bought a birthday present for my friend in Pavillion that day. The present is really cute, it's a shame I didn't take any pic of it. It's a cubic soft cushion clock, adorned with criss-crossed pink lines. Wait, you don't still think giving a clock as a present is a taboo right? I did consider for a while whether buying a clock would be suitable, but I thought that clock really would make a good gift, so wth we bought it.<br /><br />Then my friend and I went to Tower Records in lot 10 to look for our birthday girl, Clara. I'm glad she really likes the present. Also, we decided to inspect whether the clock is really functionable. We unzip the clock and took out its content. And yes, we found battery holder inside it! How miraculous! A spongy cute fully functionable clock!<br /><br />Also, my friend and I decided to go to JCO doughnuts for tea break. We also would like to see what's so gung-ho bout their doughnuts that people all over the town are talking bout it. Well, I did try before the doughnuts on Speech Night. I must say it's really just OK. I don't like how they melt the sugar on the doughnut. I'd prefer the normal makcik sold doughnuts with rough sugar on it. The sensation of chewing the crispy doughnut is different. But then again, I think the doughnuts Intec ordered are the cheapest ones. So I decided to give it a try again.<br /><br />But.. when we reached there, to my surprise, I realized my sis' friend really wasn't exaggerating at all. People actually do make long queues just to buy their doughnuts. Oh snap, I dismissed my thought to tea break there almost instantly.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_0vYb1srIPhU/RzoBpk2BidI/AAAAAAAAAPk/6421e-k8bCQ/s1600-h/091120071185.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_0vYb1srIPhU/RzoBpk2BidI/AAAAAAAAAPk/6421e-k8bCQ/s320/091120071185.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5132416539118635474" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_0vYb1srIPhU/RzoCoE2BieI/AAAAAAAAAPs/Z2yVZ0mBug0/s1600-h/091120071187.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_0vYb1srIPhU/RzoCoE2BieI/AAAAAAAAAPs/Z2yVZ0mBug0/s320/091120071187.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5132417612860459490" border="0" /></a></span><span style="font-size:100%;"><br />So we went to the normal drink sections instead.

What happened??<br /><br />Before tonight's episode, I really thought all three of them will put up a good show. Ok, they did. But I expected it to be a more intense competition; a competition among three really distinctive sets of designs.<br /><br />---------<br /><br />At first I really have high expectations for <span style="font-weight: bold;">Felix</span>' designs. The idea of 'transformers' sounds great to me.<br />"<span style="font-style: italic;">Nothing is really what you see</span>" <-- A great slogan for a collection right? <br /><br />Throughout the competition, we've seen a lot of designs that are kinda "tranformer-ish". These multi-purpose 3 in 1 designs are really cool, not to mention very feasible too, esp for busy city people. Yes, everything is fast fast fast for these busy citizens. Just imagine that if you need to attend an evening cocktail party right after your work and you have no time to go back home and get changed again, what would you do? Fret not, if you have one of these transform-able dress, all you need to do is just loosen up a button, pull up your collar and then tada... your office wear would change to an evening party wear in just seconds. <br /><br />I thought Felix' designs are going to be somewhere along this line. With his model pulling this in, pulling that out, and then take off a pin from the hair and do the 360 degrees swing of hair (like the rejoice painting ad) before walking back from the runway. But no, nothing like that on the runway. Sigh.. what a let down. None of his design "transform". Besides, his designs are actually kinda commonplace. Nice but not outstanding. His usual designs in the competition are better. A de-provement indeed. <br /><br /><br />-------- Then there's <span style="font-weight: bold;">Hatta <del>Doughnut</del> Dolmatt</span>. Honestly, I was really worried for him! I like his idea, but I was afraid others might find it boring or dated. Yea, kinda worried his designs would look dated. Last week epi when the host visited his house, the 1st dress he finished didn't really appeal much to me. Nonetheless, I still have faith in him cos the idea of his design is the kind of design I would from him. Very Hatta-ish.<br /><br />And...... I was right. His collection on the runway today is superb! It's romantic, fairy tale-ish and barbie doll-ish. Yep, the models are like walking barbie dolls! The flower at the bottom of the skirt, the erected sunflower petalled collar, beautiful, just beautiful! Stunning collection indeed!<br /><br />--------<br /><br />Now now now.. what about <span style="font-weight: bold;">Alex</span>?<br /><br />Alex' designs were the most innovative of all. Urban and bold. The 1st dress up was already a powerful one. The dress looks good front and back. It's like double surprise for me. I was impressed when the model came out, and when she turned around O_O. Even the back of the dress is extraordinary. As her models came out one by one, you can see the progress of her designs, changing gradually towards the end. It's almost like witnessing evolution taking place!! lol... The last dress in line was really striking. The tiny bulu2 on the dress look so cool! They're like those electrostatic phenomenon we used to learn in Physics where paper sticks on an object due to electrostaticity. Btw, the model in that wear looks like a cactuar! ha ha ha ha..<br /><br />There was sth else though. Even though Alex' designs are cool and all, I feel that there was something missing. The heart of her designs that used to impress me to no end in the competition seemed to be losing its magic in the collection. I mean, where's that bulky shoulder? And her trademark style?<br /><br />---------<br /><br />And then there's <span style="font-weight: bold;">judging time</span>.<br /><br />And this is exactly the part I hated!!!<br /><br />---------<br /><br />That <span style="font-weight: bold;">Asiah Mion</span>.<br /><br />She's so judging from a scheme. Very rigid thinking. It's almost as if she's looking on one aspect only - the consistency of the designs in the finalists' collections.<br /><br />-----<br /><br />And that <span style="font-weight: bold;">Bernard </span><span style="font-weight: bold;"><del>Biatch</del> Chandran</span>! &amp;^*&amp;&amp;^*(+!@#$<br /><br />He seriously need to go <span style="font-size:130%;">DOWN THERE</span> and WARM his feet!<br /><br />I mean just look at his fucking face. So menyampah! You know that time when he invited the contestants to his workhouse, he was so fucking hypocrite. Pretending to be the Mr. Nice guy and all. And what's his workhouse name again? "<span style="font-weight: bold;">Fancy room</span>?" My god, what is he? 3 years old? How did he manage to think of such a lame name.<br /><br />In the previous epis judging, he's so so soooo narrow minded, narrow until it's practically closed. Ya, closed minded. He dare to criticize Alex' designs?? I don't think his designs are anywhere close as good as 21-year-old-Alex'. If you say his designs has Alex' 0.0000000001% creativity and innovation, I would like to disagree. Overestimation.<br /><br />Throughout the competition he never compliments the contestants. He expected to see them coming up with sth new, sth the world never see before every single episode. The contestants, to me are very innovative, but he still managed to complain like an <span style="font-weight: bold;">aunty</span>.<br /><br />He was unsure in his remarks too. DId you know he was the culprit behind Alwyn's elimination? How? He said he <span style="font-weight: bold;">thinks</span> the phoenix design on Alwyn's gymnastic dress looks familiar. Familiar? Was he sure he seen that design before? Even if the phoenix motion was used before so what? Does that mean if someone used phoenix before then no one else is suppose to use it for the next 1000000 years? Idiot. Imbecile!<br /><br />And so Alwyn was eliminated that episode because of unoriginality! Because he said his design looks familiar wo.. Alwyn wasn't alone. Bernard accused Fitri too. He said again "I think I saw the KL tower jacket shape before la.." Erm..<br /><br />Whatever la Biatch!<br /><br />--------<br />On the other hand<span style="font-weight: bold;">, Bernie Chan</span> (the host) was great though. Even though her dress are sometimes quite "unique", but surprisingly she gave fairly good remarks when judging.<br /><br />In today's epi, she was defending Alex aaaalll the waaay! I already noticed she's a fan of Alex' designs in the previous epis, but I never knew she would go this far in defending Alex. So touching! She was absolutely correct when she asked them judges whether they are looking for designs that are made for now, or the more forward looking designs. As usual, Bernard stupidly answered that he only want to see designs for now. OMG.. closed minded.. rigid minded.. Downfall of civilization!<br /><br />--------<br /><br />Whatever la. Felix wins, Alex did not.<br /><br />Honestly, I think <span style="font-weight: bold;">Hatta</span> should win. His avant garde 80s designs is not only innovative but also consistent in the whole collection.<br /><br />The design consistency in his collection is also what I think the other two lacked.<br /><br />Besides consistency in design, I think Alex design also did not fit well enough with her theme. The 1st few designs in the collection don't look torturing enough for me.<br /><br />--------<br /><br />Ok now, my last words:<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Alex</span>, your bravery, determination and innovation will bring you success in the fashion industry. With the exposure you have now and the qualities I've mentioned, you will in no time become an international designer. I hope in the future I could see more of your designs, and hopefully I can see you use more of your trademark styles too, as you did throughout the competition. Besides, I really like your personality Alex. Your kinda laidback style.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Hatta</span>, I love your designs! You are a fun person, really funny guy. You made the show a joy to watch because of your fun personality. However when it comes to work, you can be really serious in it! I know that the fashion path wasn't exactly smooth sailing for you, but in the end you succeeded in proving to people who were skeptical about you that you are indeed a <del>great</del> excellent designer. Best of luck in your future undertakings!<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Felix</span>, I don't hate you. Even though the contestants dislike you, I don't think they hate you too. Erm.. Maybe some of them do la.. But in essence, I believe you are a good person at heart. I think your designs are good too. They have your touch in them. A professional designer indeed. But i think you need to be less egoistic and you should try to listen to others. And also, stop saying you're a workaholic ok? We know that already! lol..Kremlin Dusknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20979690.post-70307450948958530422007-11-05T09:23:00.000-08:002007-11-05T10:02:11.748-08:00The Old PostsI just glanced through and read back some of my old entries to check if there is any post that's too personal. I made a few posts as draft, too emo for public viewing XD. I did not delete them though cos they are important happenings in my life.<br /><br />Anyway, reading back my posts I realized I have waaaayy too many posts bout Jolin lol! Also, some entries are really funny when I read back. Besides, I also spotted a few grammar mistakes here and there too. I'm not going to correct them though; they show how my writing changed over time.<br /><br />When I intro this blog to some friends, I got the same question as I used to have. What's ng-revolution. What's ng?<br /><br />Well, read this post for an intro about my blog and what NG actually means:<br /><br /><span style="font-size:100%;"><a href="http://ng-revolution.blogspot.com/2006/04/new-generation-revolution-vision.html">The New Generation Revolution: The Vision</a></span>Kremlin Dusknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20979690.post-36533448187945750292007-11-04T23:28:00.000-08:002007-11-12T23:09:31.223-08:00My Umich AcknowledgementI've been wanting to make this post for a long time cos I really feel that I owe you guys a lot, and I need to acknowledge you for your help. If it weren't for your help, I don't think I could have completed my Umich application on time let alone being admitted to the university itself.<br /><br />Here it goes:<br />1) <span style="font-weight: bold;">My parents</span> - I owed the most to you both! I don't think there are anyone else in this world who would go to such great lengths just to help me in my application. Because I was doing my application last minute, my parents have to do a lot of things in a rush to help me. For instance, I sent my certs and results last minute to my parents' office to ask them to help me print and get the docs certified. As a result, they have to ask for assistance from their colleagues to open the mail, adjust the work to fit in the print paper, print them, and to certify them.<br /><br />This is what I felt bad about. They have to ask their friends to help me cos they aren't techno savvy. Knowing my parents, I know they don't like to ask for help unless it's really necessary. And this isn't a small favor to ask. My mom had to ask a typist to stay back after work to help me print my docs. My mom felt bad too, cos she knew the typist had other works to do. So she asked the typist to finish her work before helping her. I knew she wouldn't have done that if it's not for me and if it's not desperately needed. Then my dad had to ask his boss to help certify all the certs. It's not 1 or 2 certs, but a whole stack of em'. But I gotta admit la the results are really cool! Certified by high court wo my certs!! XD<br /><br />This wasn't all. My dad also sent me countless trips back and forth to my high school to get things done on my high school's side. Then there's also this once that made me feel 10000X bad. My dad have to go all the way from KL to Shah Alam to get my high school results to be certified. No, KL to Shah Alam is not a short trip! It's an 1 hour-trip. But what's worse you know? When my dad came, I can't even find the results he came there for. X_X So I passed the other certs for him instead la.<br /><br />2) Second on the line to be thanked is... <span style="font-weight: bold;">Mrs. Kiran<br /><br /></span>I love Mrs Kiran so much! Haha..<br /><br />Before this, I always thought Mrs Kiran was quite cold, as in she doesn't connect much or generate a good rapport with her students. Maybe cos the class I had with her was only a 1 month class, too short for any sort of connection. She's a really great teacher though, I knew that from the 1 month intensive class. Very knowledgeable and dedicated. A very stylish lecturer too. Now thinking back, perhaps she isn't that cold in the class after all cos she was quite good to some students, she offered to marked our essays, and asked us to SMS her after we get our results. She does cared bout us in her class.<br /><br />But that's besides the point. What I really appreciate from her is that she helped me to complete my recommendation letter even in her holidays. She's also the only lecturer and teacher who offered to write on her own. I gave her a draft and she wrote it during her holidays. She also kept SMS-ing me to clarify matters. In the end, when I got the letter, WOW! It's really a kick-ass letter! She exaggerated some things without distorting its meaning, really succinct too. A letter to impress indeed.<br /><br />Of course that's not all. Mrs Kiran also helped me in checking my Umich essays. It made all the difference. She pointed out the major mistakes in my essay and suggested an alternative outline I could follow. When she found that my 2nd short answer was a bit out of context she even helped me googled and printed out what she found on the net. After following her advise, I could really see the difference and the improvement in my essays quality. She also offered to help me checked for 2nd time too. On my 2nd draft, she written on it "Good job, all the best!". As usual, it's succinct, but really encouraging words!<br /><br />But what I really appreciate most from her is that all of these weren't her job, but she's still willing to help me. It shows how she cared for her students.<br /><br />3) The 3rd to thank is... Mattie aka Artemis fowl aka <span style="font-weight: bold;">Mathias</span> la..<br />You're the one who kept me on track with the application. You kept me updated on the application and gave me encouragements to complete it. You also helped me to check everything. From my translations to my recommendation letter to my essays and to my whole application set. All of them really helped.<br /><br />You're really one of the genuine friends I have in Intec. Thanks for everything!<br /><br />4) Well now, who's fourth on my list??<br />---> <span style="font-weight: bold;">Sherene Ho</span>!<br />Yes, I actually got a lot of help from this non-intec friend. Yes, sherene is one my secret weapons in my UMich application!! XO Haha.. I gotta admit that I actually have a lot of strategies in my UMich application. I think probably only my room mate knew all or at least most of them.<br /><br />Anyway, Shen Yee, thanks a lot! You are probably the only one who have witnessed how my essays evolved; how many versions they've taken before settling down as my final product. At first when I sent my essays to you I only expected you to give me a few feedbacks. But in the end, you gave me comments that are longer than my own essay, and you even gave me an alternative version of the essay. In the subsequent versions I sent you, you also helped a lot in my structures and grammar in them. It made me realize how good your English is. Not that I don't know before this, but after you helped me, I just thought that you're really a writer. You would make a good writer or a good English teacher I think!<br /><br />Also, my third essay. I think it was somehow inspired by your Nathaniel Tan's post on Puh-leez too.<br /><br />5) My room mate, <span style="font-weight: bold;">Seng Wui</span>.<br />It's sooo great to have you admitted to UMich with me. Even though it's unlikely that we'll become room mates again cos we're taking different courses, but nevertheless I still hope we can be room mates in Umich! Haha..<br /><br />Well anyway, thanks for your help! You help me in all the miscellaneous stuffs in my application. A bit here and there! It's great to apply UMich with you, you kept me on track and you made the application process less stressful and more fun.<br /><br />Now, there are also others to thank (in no particular order):<br />-<span style="font-weight: bold;">Winni</span>e - you're the one who gave me the idea for my 1st short answer question! And that's a big help! Also thanks for glancing through one of my essays.<br />- <span style="font-weight: bold;">Douglas How</span> - despite all your sarcasms, you're still a supportive friend. I knew you wanted to help me but you were busy at that time and can't online. Thanks for the encouragements though.<br />(Well yeah.. At this point, you would probably noticed that the whole Puh-leez team had helped me in my application! Thanks! I'm proud of you guys! Really!)<br />-<span style="font-weight: bold;">Puan Norrehan</span> - thanks for writing my recommendation letter. You're my fav teacher in SBS! Rock on!<br />-<span style="font-weight: bold;">My sister</span> - thanks for the encouragements! Seriously, your encouragements helped me to hold on through the strenuous process. And thanks for the checks for my essays.<br />-<span style="font-weight: bold;">Joshua Lim</span> - thanks for checking my essays. The comments and compliments from you gave me bring me confidence too! I mean, compliments from Joshua Lim wo!! Wow!<br />-<span style="font-weight: bold;">Zhao Siang</span> - my fellow applicant! We were in this together! Thanks for going through the process with me and also helping me glance through my essays.<br />-<span style="font-weight: bold;">Kai Boon</span> - thanks for the resume and sample dossier you lend me. Thanks for the check for my essays too. Your comments helped!<br />-<span style="font-weight: bold;">Philip Phang</span> - thanks for checking my essays and giving me useful feedbacks. Your feedbacks had helped me to change my essay, the 2nd one in particular!<br /><br />Well, I think that's about it. I hope I didn't leave anyone out~<br /><br />The uni application experience is really valuable for me. It made me realize how lucky I am. I realized that sometimes people would actually go further than myself to help me, which makes me extra ashame of myself for being a loser at times. I realized who are my friends, who are sincere to me. Thanks again! I also learned some important lessons, such as never to do things last minute, to persevere and give it my all in doing sth, it pays.<br /><br />I also really really hope <span style="font-weight: bold;">Mathias</span> and<span style="font-weight: bold;"> Zhao Siang</span> can get into UMich! Their application results are still pending. The experience in UMich would be less fun and definitely different without you guys. Please, oh please get admitted!<br /><br />Also, Wai Khong and Carolyn and Ooi Haw. Hope you guys get admitted too!Kremlin Dusknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20979690.post-85359950565430361422007-11-04T07:51:00.000-08:002007-11-04T08:03:48.493-08:00RestartI decided to wipe off the dust this blog had been collecting for a year!<br /><br />If you read my Exodus post, you would know I separated my blog to personal and general ones. Well, since I worked with the <a href="http://puh-leez.blogspot.com/">Puh-leez team</a>, I've abandoned this blog cos personal stuffs go to my LJ, general ones go to puh-leez.<br /><br />But now I decided to reopen this to include things I want to share with my friends; about my life in general. I have quite some thoughts in my head that I need to sort out and pour it here.<br /><br />Anyhow, to old readers, hello again. To new readers, welcome!Kremlin Dusknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20979690.post-1161614308131907662006-10-23T07:07:00.000-07:002006-10-23T11:17:58.544-07:00Happy DeepaRaya!!Happy Deepavali to all my Indian and Punjabi friends!!<br /><br />Where's my Murukuzzz and cookiezzz people?!! No invitation to Deepavali/ Hari Raya this year T_T.<br /><br />But I'll settle with some good Indian movies! Hah!<br /><br />Watched Chandhramukhi yesterday! I actually watched the MV- Raa Raa from the movie before this. So I'm actually looking forward to watch this movie.<br /><br />I just wikied this movie and found out that it had grossed over 1.5 million in Malaysia alone! O_O I didn't know it was that famous over here!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3412/2088/1600/CM20050401-3_800-600.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 346px; height: 258px;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3412/2088/320/CM20050401-3_800-600.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Here's the brief summary from wikipedia:<br /><i>The movie opens with Saravanan (Rajnikanth) returning from the U.S.A. after studying to become a psychiatrist. He meets up with his friend, Senthilnathan (Prabhu), and his wife, Ganga (Jyothika). He learns that they have bought the Vettayapuram Palace, even after the fear of the elders and dissuading them. Saravanan moves in with them, as well as his entire family. When they go to a temple, a priest reveals why everyone is so scared:<br /><br />When King Vettayan lived in that palace, he took a trip to Andhra Pradesh and met the dancer Chandramukhi and instantly fell in love with her beauty. However, she would not give any back, because her heart was already set on the dancer Gunasekaran. But Vettayan kidnapped her and brought her back to his palace. Chandramukhi, without letting the king know, had Gunasekaran stay in a nearby house for her pleasure. When the king found out, he killed Gunasekaran on 'Durgashtami' and burned Chandramukhi alive. Chandramukhi, having an unjustifiable and unfair death, lived in that palace as a spirit to take revenge on the king. Legend has it that her soul is locked up in the southern room and a king cobra is there too.<br /><br />When Ganga finds out about this story, she wants to go up to Chandramukhi's room. She gets the key and opens the door. After she does, strange things start happening in the household. A ghost is scaring the people in the house, things strangely are breaking, and Ganga's sari catches on fire. The suspicion of everyone turns towards Durga (Nayantara), the gardener's granddaughter. Senthil calls Saravanan to have him figure out what's going on in the house. As someone tries to kill Senthil and a mysterious voice sings and dances in the middle of the night, Saravanan tries to figure out what's happening...and fast.</i><br /><br />Despite the over-potraying of Dr. Saravanan machoness in the fighting scenes in the beginning of the movie, the rest of the movie is quite good! lol xP<br /><br />I was having problem keeping track with the plot at first. It only gets more complicated towards the end of the show because there were so many female characters introduced in the movie and I was confused with who is who, they look somewhat the same to me :P. But, it makes sense after a while once I knew who is who in the movie. The movie is kinda slow moving in the front part though. Aiyo.. Indian movie ma.. oops..<br /><br />Anyhow, I love the storyline and the twist in the movie. The story builds to its climax when Dr. Saravanan revealed the truth.<br /><br />I love the dancing and the songs in the movie too! Dancing is always good to watch in Indian movies, it's inseparable from an Indian movie. Indians are great at dancing and singing. I love the way a huge group of people dance in unison in the movie. It looks so grand!<br /><br />Besides, Jyothika should be credited as well. Jyothika is the one who starred as Gangga and Candramukhi in the movie. She portrayed the two contradicting characters very well. Her histrionic expressions as Candramukhi owns! She made the character looks scary and she really looked like she's possesed. Even though she was possesed, she still can dance very well (in a mad state).<br /><br /><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v621/Jovensky/chandramukhi.gif" border="1" /><br /><br />Ok, so here's Raa Raa sung by Gangga possesed by Candramukhi along with Viswanathan who was thought as Gunasekaran by Chandramukhi who was in the body of Gangga. Haha.. just my attempt to confuse you.. It's my favourite part from the show! Warning: grusome scene in the end where Gunasekaran was beheaded :S..<br /><br /><br /><object height="350" width="425"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/gWQwcLw28pY" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" height="350" width="425"></object><br /><br /><br />------<br /><br />My neighbour just sent over some rendangz and lemangz!!

It was from MCA, the sms was written by MCA President's secretary. It says that I was put under a special help list for my jpa appeal, and that my jpa scholarship application was successful. I was in disbelief while reading the message. Before I finished reading it, I was already smiling and cracked the news to my parents. They too were in disbelief and asked me to show them the message. I couldn't suppress my feeling as I was trying not to smile, but I just got really excited. I didn't think I'd be so happy when I get the scholarship.<br /><br />At the same time, I don't want to be too hopeful as it was only a SMS and nothing "official" yet. So I hesitated to tell my friends about the news yet and only told a few of them.<br /><br />My dad called jpa for confirmation the next day and asked for more details from them. My dad sms-ed me when I was in school and said that I'm going to MARA International Shah Alam on Monday. It was really a short notice, I was having mixed feelings at that moment. Excited, but at the same time I was feeling sad as Im going to have to start a new life, leaving home and school.<br /><br />I was thinking at that time, how to tell my classmates about it. When I told them, they thought I was kidding until I put on a serious look. I really like some of my classmates. Some of my classmates are really nice and friendly, and some are really hardworking and smart. I would ask them questions that I don't understand or asked them to help me solve some problems, they would have gladly helped me. I really appreciate it. I wish I had knew them better!<br /><br />I was just feeling really motivated and determined on Tuesday to stay at form 6 as mentioned on my last post. I even bought all the reference books for all subjects on Wednesday getting ready to turn into a bookworm. I also had some study plans planned out and planned to go tuition with my classmates in July.<br /><br />I remember I was feeling very lost, unsure, insecure and was at a very low point in my life 2 weeks ago, where I hated to go to school, and felt like giving up study. But then, I got motivated and had the drive to study when I went back to school. When I had a day off on Tuesday, I rearranged my mind set and really felt recharged to study form 6.<br /><br />I could sort of relate how I am feeling now with <a href="http://dnickz.blogs.friendster.com/halfofmyl1fe/2006/06/i_just_wished_t.html">Nicholas' post</a>, where I am afraid to lose something important in life and the desire to sustain the joyful or memorable moments longer.<br /><br />I hope I will be able to face the challenges ahead and I'll have a smooth path ahead. I hope this decision would be a right decision even though some of my friends advised me to stay at form 6. But, I am quite firm with my decision.<br /><br />By getting this scholarship, I started to believe that there are still hopes and there'll always be hopes. I thought I was clinging on false hopes all along during SPM, I was wrong. God has Her own ways of planning things, and always full of surprises and miracles. God must had put me in form 6 for the past month for a reason (reasons). It's probably to let me learn and grow up from it.Kremlin Dusknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20979690.post-1150877590302274102006-06-21T01:12:00.000-07:002006-10-23T11:17:57.985-07:00Feeling BLUE?Darling, darling ah...

It was fun! Watched 3 movies in a row with my sis and cousins. 4 movies next time!! Haha<br /><br />These are the 3 movies:<br />1. The Omen<br />- Good for a few jumps in the seat! I actually screamed when that stupid nanny jumped on that guy :@.. <br /><br />2. Over The Hedge<br />- Cute movie, really funny. Love Hammy! So cute..<br /><br />3. Da Vinci Code<br />- Good! They followed a lot of details from the book. A lot of the scenes were pretty much like the way I imagined it. I didn't manage to finish the book though. I read the book until 4am the day before, trying to finish it, but only managed to finish 80% of it. <br /><br />Remember the last time I said I found a good jeans in Debenhams? Well, luckily I waited, cos that jeans got discount as I've expected! It's only 10% though. I was going to wait for 50% but then there's only 1 pair of that jeans left, so... I bought it. Hahahaha.. The rest of the men department has sales too. <br /><br />------<br /><br />Just checked jpa's site today to see the result of my appeal for the scholarship. As expected, failed. Actually part of me was glad I did not get the scholarship, because:<br />1. Im not ready to go oversea.<br />2. I just started settling down in VI. <br />3. I think form 6 might be fun, in a way.. But I also hate the fact that I'll have to work 10 times harder in form 6.<br />4. My mom would buy me a piano if Im not going oversea. :) <br /><br />But of course, it would be cool if I got the scholarship too. Going oversea really sounds cool to me. Plus, the course I applied is a course that Im interested in.<br /><br />--------<br /><br />Holidays' over... I just spent my whole holiday playing computer game- Heroes IV: Might and Magic, listening songs, watching dramas, movies.. Practically wasting time. But I don't mind, at least Im enjoying myself. Something that I need before getting tortured when school reopen. <br /><br />That just reminded me that I have not touch my homework one bit yet.. Oh well, I still have the orientation week to finish it ;). Im gonna enjoy my holiday to the last bit!<br /><br />--------<br /><br />Im getting a new phone!!! Wahhahahaha.. My old one's spoilt!<br /><br />--------<br /><br />Can't wait for Hikki's new album which is coming out this week. I heard the preview, they are great!!!!!!! <br /><br />--------<br /><br />Some Jolin's videos:<br /><br /><object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/_h-ztPWdyas"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/_h-ztPWdyas" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350"></embed></object><br /><br />Cute MV!!

I've read some comments saying that Jolin's too sluttish in this MV. It's Ok for me though. It's the exact way she should potray in the MV. I can't wait to see her performing live with this song, wanna see her dance in this song. Too little dance steps shown in the MV. Hopefully 玩美 will have more dancing in the MV. <br />Sidenote: Edison really spoiled the scene.. The moment he walked out.. Eww.. <br /><br /><object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/9166f1XFQr0"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/9166f1XFQr0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350"></embed></object><br /><br />Jolin performing in MTV. The performance really kick ass! But the camera is just too shaky and always shoot at the wrong angle.. On contrary to the MV of this song, the ribboning part was actually better than the "ball" part. Watching her ribbon-ing live is so cool. Im so proud of her!!!!!<br /><br /><object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/fVXY1rWlND8"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/fVXY1rWlND8" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350"></embed></object><br /><br />Perfect ribboning!

Weeeee.. My parents went on a trip to Redang on Thursday and will come back on <delete><del>Monday night</del></delete> tomorrow night. They are coming back earlier. Im not sure if it's their trip's scedule that was changed or were they coming back earlier to discuss/take care of my form 6 problem. I love to be alone in the house, feels like I owned the house and can do anything without restrictions >=].<br /><br />So.. I got my connection back finally! Ha! I hope it lasts. Streamyx is really to be blamed for their low efficiency in fixing my connection problem. They don't even bother to entertain our complain calls although my dad had called them more than 10 times already. And everytime they promised to call back, they didn't call back, making all these shitless promises. Over 10 calls were made and they don't even send a technician here. They claimed to be able to check our connection problem from their database and they say it's our modem's problem. One of the people there called us and tell us that their modems are out of stock and will come and replace our modem once there's stock. A week had passed by and no one came, my dad called that guy again and apparently they still don't have stock. They don't even have the courtesy to keep us informed about whether they have stock or not. I think not having stocks for a week is ridiculous and BS.<br /><br />Then my dad has to call tm net again and again. Each time he calls, he has to wait on the line and go through their system. All the calls made were not less than half an hour. Plus their line is not toll free, so you could imagine how much the calls cost. My connection had been down for a month now, and my dad still have to pay for the bills. Tm net refuse to give my dad rebate on the bill saying that it is our responsibility to complain and take care of the connection problem.<br /><br />They finally got my connection fixed this Thursday. Apparently it's my area's port problem or sth. On Thursday, I online from 11 to 5:30 in the morning. It's been too long since I've last online. Well, all is forgiven now that I got my connection back.<br /><br />-----<br /><br />So what had I been up to without my internet? Nothing much really except watching movies, watching my Jolin J1 conert VCD and listening songs.<br /><br />Besides this, I've also attended my school's Anugerah Cemerlang last Saturday. I think it's better if I didn't attend this ceremony. I have a fairly good impression of my school when I left my school and on that day, the good impression was spoilt. When I went to daftar for the anugerah, the teachers scanned through me and said my clothes were inappropriate and not a decent clothes to wear on a formal occasion like that. Their reasons? My pants have too many pockets? What bull shit? My pants have 2 pockets. I purposely avoided wearing jeans and T-Shirt to show my respect to the occasion. And the pants I wore, I even took off the strips that were clinging to it so that it looks more decent. Heck, this set of clothes is one of my most decent clothes. Only about 5 of us got through these "fashion police". Just because they don't want us to humiliate the school's image in front of the VIP, they barred us from going on stage. What a great way to show their appreciations to the students who helped the school gaining top 5 ranking in SPM results in Wilayah. I can't believe the school is ashamed of us when we help them gained their good reputation today.<br /><br />And why the hell is my name sorted to be the 7th person to be given the award? If they want to add GCE to the number of subjects, then Afil has a 'B'. Hence the straight As students should be given the award first. Ok, so if the reason is Afil has 11A1s and 1B, then Qi Yuan has the same thing too, why is Qi Yuan sorted behind the straight As students but Afil is not? I can only think of 1 reason. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against Afil, just that the way they sort the names is "confusing".<br /><br />Then I got over all these and having this innocent thought of using the anugerah's money to go shopping or sing K.. But when I opened the envelop from the Anugerah, Im .....无言..... RM20's in the envelope. My intention of spending the money to shop was shattered... Oh well, at least I got a CUTE diary with a calculator attached to it and got 2 trophies. Yay.. Trophies!! Haven't got any trophy since form 3.<br /><br />So after the anugerah, my friends and I went to Sg Wang. We wanted to go and sing K and went to Redbox only to find out that it's too expensive. It is really expensive. So we went to have lunch in McDonald. I had a McValue meal while my friends had sundae. As usual, my friends leeched my food from me. You leechers!! XP<br /><br />Then Hui Yen wanted to go and try on some clothes in Parkson. She always rushed upstairs to Parkson whenever she had a break during her work. It's her secret sanctuary XD!! But Qi Yuan and I didn't entertain her >:D. Then she said if she knew we weren't going to teman her go shopping she would have just go to work today. Beach doz.. Well, my clothes were uncomfortable and I have to carry 2 trophies around the place while shopping. While my other friend is tired and doesn't seem to be in the mood of shopping.<br /><br />But of course we did go to Parkson in the end. I so setia kawan, haha.. We went to try some clothes, pose around, take pics.. It was fun cos that place was peopleless. And the clothes there were not bad, better than the downstairs ones. I think we're like the only people there. We took a pic of our legs :S... and a pic on the elevator. Both poses were my idea 0=). But the pics were of course taken by the talented photographer wannabe.<br /><br />Afterwards, we went down to the ground floor and saw the crowd screaming near the center stage. I didn't know who was performing but they looked cool and they're totally heating up the atmosphere there. And so I screamed along.. lol.. Then my friend realised that the group performing is North. Then my friend just went crazy and got into a pic-taking frenzy. After their performance, my friend and I went to backstage and we saw Daniel inside the backstage. My friend then got all excited and wanted to get Daniel's autograph. It's crazy, she yelled Daniel's name outside the backstage and played Daniel's ringing tone outside the tent. Then there were other fan girls tried peeping in the backstage. My friend, who's so determined to get an autograph from Daniel insisted to stay around there to wait for Daniel to come out or wait for him to perform. So while waiting we ate sth in Deli France. The tomato soup there is good! lol..<br /><br />Afterwards we rushed back to the stage when we heard the crowd screaming again. A few DJs were on stage and 颜学迁&amp;张起政 (Hudson and Kit) was on stage too. >>>OMG<<<.. I missed to see them live the other day and now Im finally seeing them in real life!! How cool!! So I quickly asked my friend to take some pics of them. I hope he has got some good shots!! Can't wait to see the pics!! Soon after that, this friend decided to go back. Then I watched the other performances with my other friend who's waiting for Daniel's performance. Then there's this hairstyling show. It was cool! They have guys half naked with their body painted to the 5 elements, which are fire, water, wood, gold and earth. Then the hairstylist helped them to style up their hair according to the elements. After that, they have another hair show where the girls dressed up as sweets, fruits, flowers, present, doughnut, ice cream etc etc. Their hair were also made like these things. E.g. an ice cream gal would have her hair made to look like ice cream. Their hair were oh, HUGE! Wonder how they managed to attached the huge hair on their head so stably. The show was very good and spectacular. The outfits and their hair were really nice and colourful. Their outfits were definitely not sth knitted or done in a short time. The designs were really detailed. And the models look pretty too. One of them which my friend and I both agreed that she really looks very elegant. It's a shame my friend who's holding the camera went back or else he could have some good shots and I could steal some of his pics to post it up here XD. After the show, we waited a while and finally decided to go to timesquare and give up waiting for Daniel. We thought he had probably went back since we have waited there for hours already. In timesquare, we sit on the bench in timesquare for a while. I was really tired. After a while, we went and walk around. It was then my friend and I got in the shopping mood again. We discussed a lot about the styles we should put on while trying out the clothes. Then we went to Debenhams (sp?), a rather classy section. I think the clothes there were for the more mature generation, the style was simple, normal. But the price is expensive. Debenhams doesn't have much customers either, probably because the clothes were too ordinary and the price is too expensive. I think because of that, the clothes in the whole women clothes department were 50% off. Since this place is peopleless too, it's a good place to linger around and try out the clothes. I found a good pair of jeans there, but it was too expensive so I didn't buy it. Hopefully next time the whole men's department will be 50% off too... Wahaha.. After that, my friend and I walked around the LG of timesquare. I've never been to the LG in timesquare before. I'm surprised to find Romp, Nike, FOS down there. I never thought Romp existed in timesquare. My friend found a good hot pants in FOS but she didn't buy it since she's jimating her money. I bought a T-shirt from Romp though, a white one :D. It's my first white Shirt. I guess it's time I stop wearing all the black shirts... Then while we were walking, a guy from Ogawa offered us for massaging. My friend turned him down while I was talking on phone. Then I asked my friend to try the massaging, so we went there and asked if we could.. XP.. He said sure and set the massaging seats for us. He even got a pillow for my friend :D. Then that guy started chatting with us and he noticed our trophies and was surprised at our results. He quickly spread the words around the staffs.. And then he interviewed us and chatted for a while. Without realising it, we had spent about 15 minutes there already. I got so comfortable that I was reluctant to leave, then my friend said "适可而止哦。。" XP.. So we told that guy we should leave already. Then he gave us a card for Ogawa and he even offered us a plastic bad to keep our trophies. How nice!!! A plastic bag that we've been looking for the whole day. This staff's courtesy and friendliness really should be commended! He didn't contempt/looking down on us for we're just kids and can't afford those massaging seats. He was really friendly when chatting with us not to mention he has the initiative to offer us a plastic bag. To have such courtesy and be friendly to customers isn't really that hard to do, but I often came accross so many rude promoters, staffs or sales girl. Some of the salespersons in some shops would look at us as if some beggars just walked in to their shops, like we can't afford their clothes. And some of them don't entertain us when we asked questio
