Ice Again

on Thursday 31 December 2009

We are back to the ice rink!

It seems to be an annual event for us, the ice skating fanatic.

We celebrated Christmas, Shiun's Birthday and New Year all together. 3 in 1, good for my pocket. This year only 3 of us, one in the States and another one at home.

He touch my breast, the girl behind jealous

I didn't know it was school holiday and the ticket was quite pricey. However, when I got into the ice rink, the price became reasonable. So many hot girls that day! Wohoo!! Too bad my flirting skills have been deteriorated since JL and KW were not around.

"That girl hot?", Shiun said.
"No, that one hotter", I replied.
"Huh, What!?", she shocked.

She told me guy and girl has different point of view when comes to hot girl. But when comes to guy...

"That guy so yong sui(ugly)", I said.
"Ya lo", she replied.

LOL!!





Ah Boon going back Sabah next week. I think the next time we can meet each other will be half a year later.

halo mister, don't block my way la!

Anticipate!Ornament

Broga Hill

Such an awesome holiday!

Back in year 2006, a bunch of college's students have been to this little village namely Broga New Village to organize a camp and I was one of it. The very first time I stepped into this village, I was stunned. The amazing scenery around Broga's outskirt, greenish hills and azure blue sky combine into one. Just like a piece of painting artwork!

"You can hike over there", I was told by the villager there. *pointed to the peak of the hill*

3 years later, I'm back to this place. Yes, hiking!

Our main purpose was to see the sunrise, so all of us got up 3am in the morning for preparation. Departed on 4am from Bandar Botanic Klang and reached by 5.30am at Semenyih. Thanks to Global Positioning System (GPS).

We stopped by in a palm oil estate. It was really dark but there were already a lot of people over there. I would say mosquitoes repellent is a must!

Dark Route

Let's hike!

5.45am we started our journey. Lit up the torch and moved. I have no idea where were I going but just follow the trait. If there are junctions we would just "kikiki peng peng". Arrived the 1st peak in 30 minutes. Well, nice view but too crowded. So we proceeded our journey to 2nd peak and furthermore to 3rd peak. Our dear friend Mr Alex vomited out of sudden. LOL! Everybody just gloated! I was shocked because I'm just 2 steps behind him.

I hereby salute Mr Alex because he can vomit no matter in what situation.

After few minutes rest (specially for Mr Alex), we went on to the last peak (4th peak). We seem to be the second team to conquered the 4th peak.

6.30am, 45 minutes to reach 4th peak. The feeling was SUPERB!

At the 4th peak

The sky turned dawn slowly. The birds were singing, the bugs were hiding (from the birds), and the sun rose.

Sunrise

We then back downhill and captured every wonderful views.

2nd peak

3rd peak (behind are 2nd peak and 1st peak)

Oscar awards

Superman

It's a nice trip after all and I am sure I will do more hiking in the future. Klang Gates, Mount Tahan and Mount KK please wait for me!


Information for Hikers :

How to Get There - The best landmark is Nottingham Malaysia. Notts Malaysia is on your left hand side, drive 2 minutes further and you will see a "Rabbit Fun Land" on your right. Stop there and park your car at the road side. The entrance is just opposite the "Rabbit Fun Land".

What to Bring - Mosquitoes Repellent, 1.5 litre water, torchlight and some food.

Merry Xmas

on Friday 25 December 2009

What a peaceful Christmas Eve. An auspicious night that makes me feel so pleasant. Deep in my heart.

I have relinquished the conventional way (countdown) to celebrate Christmas this year because my last phone was lost in a crowded place. I hate these places.

I am having holiday! Yes, it's holiday but pretty short.

I reached home about 2am yesterday night. I was in lethargic mode because only slept 2 hours the day before. I saw a car. Huh? *wipe my eye* I really saw a car! I got new car in my house. LOL! Yes! Now I can flirt with a car, and I can fetch girl into a horrendous jungle in the middle of the night and see jumbo elephants and crouching tigers. Happy #1.

Got a new jeans! My sister chosen and reserved a jeans for me before she left to Singapore. I just picked up from the shop. I really have no idea how to choose a suitable apparel. Fortunately I have this "fashion consultant". Thank you so much! Happy #2.

I have 3 younger foster sisters, 1 elder foster sister and 1 foster brother. Normally people will criticize about this. Mainly due to jealousy. The eldest foster sister got married last few months. So happy finally she has someone with her (no need kacau me anymore). And I just celebrated one of my closest younger sister birthday today. The same day as Christmas. Nice, because I can celebrate both together. haha. I will travel to Bangi New Village to visit another younger sister and brother during CNY. Suddenly so miss them. Going to give them a big surprise! ^^ Happy #3.

Went to the obscure I-City to have a look at the dainty Xmas's decoration. Wow, a lot of LEDs' trees and a lot of LEDs on the trees. That's a difference on the statement, it's not a typo. Very simple decoration but somehow quite beautiful. Light Emitted Diode (LED) is one of the most power-efficient electronic devices. I predict that fluorescence light will be replaced by LED in the near future. Television and computer's LCD screen will also be replaced by Organic LED (OLED). Please believe me because I am the inventor. Happy #4.

Penilaian Menengah Rendah (PMR) has released the result yesterday. My brother got 7A's. Well, quite surprising result because DotA was his books for the pass few years. I think my mum feel really happy because she got another "useful" kid beside me. haha! I think jy feel happy too if he know this. So, I rewarded him some cash for making my mum and jy happy. Happy #5.

I need to get back to university in advance because I have two ongoing competitions which is Robotic and Infineon. I have no confident at all for both competitions because I am a fresh meat which Pudge likes the most. I only have a small wish. I wish I could make it into National Team for robotic and get first place for Infineon. LOL! I just want the money!!!! If this would happen then it would be Happy #6.

Wow, didn't realize this entry is so long.

And I thought of you too Ms Ruth! I would like to convey my heartiest greeting to you and your husband if you were reading this! Merry Christmas! Hope your research goes well!

Merry Christmas to all the readers! I know you love me. ^^

P/s : Please text me your number if you haven't do it because I lost my phone and all the contacts. It's so hard to recover back all the contacts. T_T

Time to Get Married

on Saturday 28 November 2009

10 years ago, I was asked by my grandma, when will I get married. I was little. "Mm Zai (I don't know in teochew)", I answered. She said, I should get married at 30. "Tai Lao Liao La (that's too old in teochew)", I shouted. She was amused and dispersed around to the neighbors.

Back in few years ago, I was perplexed that when should I get married. After considered really carefully, I have decided to get married in between 32 to 34. Yes, I fixed the plan and make it as a target to boost my financial stability before I get married.

Weeks ago, my uncle asked me when do I wanted to get married (due to relatives all getting married). I answered firmly, 32! You crazy, he shouted. Your son going to called you "ah gong(grandpa)".

Few days ago, one of my friend asked me, when will I get married. Again, I answered, 34! "chi sin ar you (are you crazy?), when you are 50 years old your son merely 16", my friend said.

Now I'm puzzled by this question again. However, I hope I could stick with my plan.

Since everyone is concerning the age gap between my children and I, then I have to think a way to reduce the gap and in the same time get married on my targeted age.

Haha!

Through My Window

on Tuesday 20 October 2009

Various media companies and radio stations throughout Malaysia received a mystery CD with a cryptic message "open for collaborations".

There were callers around the country enquiring about the catchy song but none of them was given an answer. Radio stations and blogs have launched a hunt for more clues.

I heard the song and I think it was intriguing. Somehow, I found it too good to be local production. How about you?


THROUGH MY WINDOW
Don’t want much, I just want everything
Thought that I could, do almost anything
One step in front of the other
Thought that I could do it alone

In the blink of an eye, it's just another day
Telling me why, I'll find another way
Got this feeling, got me reeling
I can almost start believing

Now there's me and you
And we are not alone
You and me
We are together now
Through my window, I can see there's
More than you and more than me
Me and you
And we are not alone
Different view
We are together now
Through my window, I can see
Our wildest dreams could be so real

I see a spark, it starts a fire
Is this the one worth waiting for?
Thought that I could do it without you
Can’t exist like this anymore

Now there's me and you
And we are not alone
You and me
We are together now
Through my window, I can see there's
More than you and more than me

Now there’s me and you, you and me
We are not alone and we are together
Through my window I can see
Our wildest dreams could be so real

8051 - Automatic Room Light Controller with Visitors Counter

on Monday 21 September 2009

1 and a half month, finally the project has been done. This is the "Automatic Room Light Controller with Visitors Counter" project using Atmel 89C51(40 pins) from Intel 8051 family series.

The excitement after finishing the project is so indescribable. As the team feel so frustrated keep on troubleshooting the problems that caused the project not working. Even if you inquire Mr. Lecturer, he will always gives you the very "meaningful" idiom.

Student : Sir, we've done this this that that. Why still not working?
Lecturer : You just try this try that, try until it works.
Student : Cannot. It might burn the components.
Lecturer : Yeah. The more you burned, the more you learned.

Thanks for the idiom caused me burned out 2 infrared and 2 transistors. You think is cheap? Hell NO! We has spent around 160 bucks for the project though it can be done within 100 bucks.

Let's see how was the project transformed from a Zero to a Hero.

昨天聊到你们作出国最后的准备,想必你们都很期待。

你说得对,你们离开后,我这里真的没有朋友了。

笑我吧!

此情可待成追忆,只是当时已惘然

on Sunday 30 August 2009

数几年,你用心的奉劝我准时吃饭,你说不定时吃饭会胃痛。

“胃痛很痛吗?”。
“很痛!”。
“你怎么知道?”
“我姐也胃痛啊。”

昨天,又胃痛了。频频发生。

真的很痛。不过,至少每次胃痛,都会想起你的劝告,然后,嘴角露出浅浅的微笑。:)

KFC

on Saturday 22 August 2009

CW all of the sudden feel like eating KFC, and therefore I was asked to follow him. It's almost Raya, many will started fasting tonight. That's also the reason tonight KFC are full of people although it was 11pm.

KFC have very good marketing idea. They do promote special edition set meal during each of the auspicious day. Tonight, they have SHRIMP STIX!

It was so intriguing. Check it out, the shrimp sticks, so fat! Even larger than the fried chicken. Without second thought, we immediately ordered the set meal for our supper.

Eventually the BIG SHRIMP STIX is only the size of his thumb. Now I know why it's shrimp instead of prawn.

Look forward to seeing Lobster Stix. Yeah!

Engineering

on Thursday 13 August 2009

IF YOU FIND IT THIS HARD YOU PROBABLY SHOULDN'T BE STUDYING ENGINEERING!

  1. You come out of a lecture and feel that you wouldn’t mind being hit by a bus.
  2. You are doing maths that the maths students don’t cover until the 2nd year.
  3. Using a hyphen (-) instead of a minus (−) loses you 1% of the module.
  4. You know the Greek and Arabic alphabets better than the language students.
  5. A 4 hour day is an easy day.
  6. A 9 hour day is still an easy day.
  7. You are up at 3am in the morning trying to finish yet another piece of coursework asking yourself… why?
  8. Shelf stacking at Tesco looks like an attractive career option.
  9. You come out of tutorials feeling like you have just gone 12 rounds with Mike Tyson.
  10. You feel bitter contempt towards anyone complaining of 2 lectures in a row.
  11. Someone complains about ‘take away exams’ you feel a sudden urge to hospitalise them.
  12. A lecture on Control Engineering leaves your ass raw and bleeding.
  13. Even Sunday starts at 9am.
  14. It’s the norm that you can’t fit an equation on 1 line of a page.
  15. Handing in an assignment just means that’s there’s a new one to complete.
  16. Time is measured in submission deadlines.
  17. You could run a marathon in the time it takes to do 1 question.
  18. 24 hours in a day doesn’t seem enough.
  19. You find out you have 3x as many exams as practically everyone else.
  20. You frequently ask yourself why the f**k are you doing this.
  21. You are used to covering a ridiculously large span of subjects to the same standard as the respective degree students.
  22. Breasts in a lecture theatre generally means theres a guy who's let himself go a bit.
  23. You would assume a horse is a sphere to make the maths easier.
  24. Your best friend is your calculator.
I personally agree #20. LOL.

MSLS 09

on Sunday 9 August 2009


After being urged by CTSA, I have finally registered for this simply awesome event - The Malaysian Student Leaders Summit.

I have suffered in insomnia the day before I attended this event. I stayed awake for the long whole night. Excited? Not really.

Attendees for the event are mostly from top university in the United Kingdom. Cambridge, Oxford, Imperial, UCL, LSE, King's etc. This is the reason I do not feel like socialize myself because I am just a small potato and I don't feel like embarrass myself with the name of my university.

What am I actually gain the most from this event is not from those prominent yet well-known figures in the world but the people around there. I tried to mingle around during the networking session and I found that each of them possess very excellent soft skills. Indeed. the way they present themselves really impress me a lot. No matter how you dodge away from them, you will still get to know them eventually. They would initiate anyhow.

I have a job offered by BRDB on spot! Actually I don't know anything about this property company until they mentioned about Bangsar Shopping Centre, Troika Bangsar and Permas Jaya. They also worked with Foster and Partners.

"Are you both going out (together)?", haha

us and the company we own

Looking forward for the next summit. I will enlarge my social network by that time.


Pig Day

on Sunday 2 August 2009

Wow, I was trying to update and I forget how to post a new entry! Haha. But now I found it.

Tada!

My pig is getting old! And she lost her teenage! Oh, poor little girl. Don't be mad on me. You have to know I am the most 'wu sim' person for you in the world. There's no way for me to forget your birthday okay? Though I owe u a lot miscelleneous stuff (don't feel like repay you lar, can ar?) but still, I gone through 364 days waiting for the arrival of your birthday to let you scold me 'bo sim'. See! How good am I?

After whined then must give some compliments. Otherwise I will get scolded again. Thank you for being my pig for 5.5 years. Although we only met twice a year. But you are such a loyal pig! Haha. Stop asking me to work hard and treat you scrumptious meal. You should work even harder to avoid yourselve to ask me to work hard because of the meal. Confusing? That simply means you have to work hard and that's all!

After compliments must nag a bit. Hey, please stop piercing can? I feel so pain looking at your masterpieces. Few years later you might become christmas tree. So many bling bling. Do more window shopping rather than real shopping. Everytime say poor but spend like there's no tomorrow. Save money for your grandchildren okay?

Before end, I want to explain. This is not belated post. Is because I type from 11 something until now so the date change already. Please trust me, I very 'wu sim' one.

Lastly,

Happy Pig Day!

Holi-Jolly Day

on Saturday 30 May 2009

Yes, it's holidays right now! Today is the fourth day of my holidays and it is going to end soon! Time move slower, please!

Man Utd lost to Barcelona! What can I say? Man Utd really underperformed. Not only the players stress, even us the fans also stress. The reason is we were surrounded by Barca's fans! LOL! Went to Asia Cafe that night and I have never seen such huge amount of people before in AC. I think more than 100 tables added on that night. Very packed. Luckily zz got us a table but still we need to find our own chair. OK, it took me half an hour to get a chair.

yl, boon and I went to Damansara yesterday, and I found my prey!

Attack!

We sent boon to job training after that.
tc : how long it takes?
boon : 2 hours only. *walk away*


yl : wan wait him ma?
tc : haiz, wait lo.


First 30 minutes, yl and I had our lunch and walked around.

Second 30 minutes, nothing to do already.

Third 30 minutes, became 'kit jia' (beggar) at road side. Every pedestrian thought we were 'kit jia' and squinted at us as we were 'kit jia'.

Cheou Chii Boon please REMEMBER this forever and ever!

Fourth 30 min
utes, still waiting! yl began his 'tueit meng zui wan call'. Call, call and call. 'Awhile more', boon replied.

Fifth 30 minutes, I fall asleep. Don't know what happen already.

Sixth 30 minutes, sleeping.

Seventh 30 minutes, I woke up and saw boon came out with a smiling face.

Pissed off. Tell me Boon, where can you find another friend that can wait for you for 3.5 hours provided no entertainment, no proper food, no chair to sit and have to 'mao kai'(squatted at road side). So these few days you know what to do lar?

Interviewed by PhD candidate

on Thursday 23 April 2009

Right after I read my previous entry comments, I thought of an interview abruptly.

About a month ago, a PhD candidate from the University of Nottingham has interviewed me about my blogging experiences. Frankly, at first I felt a little bit reluctant to be interviewed due to hectic schedule at the moment. However, a responsible person like ME has eventually accepted the interview.

I have been attended sort of interviews such as academic, clubs and societies position, scholarships, jobs and so on. But undeniably, this is the longest interview I have ever had in my life. It took me around 2 hours for the whole session but it was the most delectable interview because I can joke a lot without hesitation.

What really reminds me about the interview is comments from Darryl. Just to inform you that your comments has been monitored due to all kind of constructive comments you provided (constructive? LOL..). So, mind your words okay? (just kidding, you still can be as rude as joey.. hahahahahaa..!!!)

Another intriguing question was asked. "Why you use proper English in your entries while 'rojak' languages in you comments? I noticed a lot of odd vocabularies such as 'hamsap', 'sibeh', 'walao', 'gay'...."

"Oh, because of Joey."

All the best to Ms Ruth and I hope you can obtain your Philosophy of Doctor as soon as possible. Good luck!



p/s : someone please play my tic tac toe at your right hand side. It takes less than 3 seconds to beat you down.

Good News

on Wednesday 22 April 2009

Racism?

For over 40 years since the New Economy Policy (NEP) has been introduced, non-bumiputra (non-indigenous) have been disillusioned for 40 years. Yet, they remain silent and succumb to the policy. Because, it's taboo to talk about that publicly.

Thanks to the fiasco of the coalition in the 12th election caused an anarchy in the country. Now, dreams are no longer dreams. Leaders are now kowtowing to the people.

Today government has removed the 30% bumiputra equity condition in 27 services sub-sectors, with immediate effect.

Many might not concern for this but for me it's a good start for the people from different background to compete fairly.

Perhaps 30% bumiputra equity should be removed in toto in all sectors. As well as the "Quota" stuff that applied in many fields. Hope it will happen one day.

Stop regressing Malaysia!
