CHRISTMAS LUNCH

My family and I went over to a friend's house for a Christmas lunch! They made really scrumptious food, from Western to Asian food. It's so sad that I need to leave earlier!

Anyway, Merry Christmas to everyone! Stay safe and have a joyful holiday!

I'm wearing Nautica polo, FCUK denim short, Billabong belt and Converse sneakers.

Happy Birthday Mum!!!

Happy Birthday to the most amazing mum on Earth!!!

I'm wearing Country Road shirt, Levi's straight bootcut and Ralph Lauren shoes.

Japanese Dinner

 

Sunday is always family day to me because at the end of the day what matters the most is still always our famiy.

We have decided to go for Japanese food tonight at Seizan Japanese Restaurant in Hay Street, Perth. Everyone has a wonderful time and we spend so much quality time together reflecting about life and partly we are reminiscing and talking about my belated grandpa. Time passed so fast that my grandpa has passed away for a month now. Life is short and this is why we need to cherish every single moment with our loved ones.

 I'm wearing Marcs t-shirt, Docker's shirt, Lee denim and Marcs shoes.

it's being a year...

Time advances that now it's almost a year grandma left me. Uncle Thong phoned now inquring when is the date according to the Lunar Calender Ah Ma left us. At that instant, the sadness which I made every great painful effort to bury it has suddenly popped out so naturally and I sighed at how relentlessness time elapsed and for almost a year, I had not shouted out loudly Ah Ma. That day in Grandpa's house, I was having lunch in the kitchen when I suddenly reminisced grandma's cooking, her porridge, her dishes and everything she cooked for the entire family! I damn miss her porridge, her fares and everything! My tears were merely falling. Sigh. I guess time passes but I still preferred I got stucked in the time when I spent together with Ah Ma.

Since the departure of hers, I kept on dreaming her. For the first few months, I was so looking forward to everytime I dreamt about her. It is sort of like a psychological comfort for me. At least in my dreams I can spent my time with Ah Ma although it is temporary and virtual. I woke up the very next day with streaming tears. I know I miss her! I miss her a lot! Yet nothing could buy her back to the Earth! I only plead that scientists could come up with a time machine. I wish to travel back to time to meet Ah Ma. Or God, I beg you, please return me my Ah Ma! I know we need her a lot. She's the greatest, not for then and now but she has influenced us for so long.

At an empty aisle,
as i stroll along,
i miss grandma,
i could feel her, i could hear her.
But i just wanna see her
and talk to her non-stop
before finishing off with
I LOVE YOU!
Thanks for everything!

~sigh~

Mix 'Em Up

Yea. The blog was dumped vacant since the past few days. It's merely creeping to 10 days that my blog was left empty. Yea. Just empty. Too bad that I think I am soon gonna turn into a bad blogger. Nah.

The main reason I could not update my blog those few days are:

1. My maternal grandma passed away peacefully finally - after 5 years of battle with sickness and illness like goitre, Pakinson and cancer. It's a struggle and pain for her to haul on every irksome, pointless day. I am glad my grandma went off with God peacefully and hopefully she is satisfied and happy. Anyway, grandma, I'd love you too! You may not be able to substitute the position of my paternal grandma, well, at least I am proud and fortunate that I am showered with love for 17 years from a maternal grandma. I LOVE YOU much XD.

2. I got ill. Gosh. My health is totally appalling, not wanting to say it's deteriotating. Yea. I caught a cold and ended up consulting the family doctor. NO!! I have not consulted the doctor even once - execpt during F3 when I was infected by chicken pox =) since F2. XD. I am in the pink of health, aint I? *vain much XD*

3. The torrential cats and dogs. Last night I was scheduled to come home earlier and catch up with unfinished business - HOMEWORK which I missed out a lot when I attended the funeral but then the cruel and heartless rain pour continuously until my grandpa's resident was flooded. So our family spree there to spruce up the place and carry valuable items to a higher level. XD. Tonight the heavy downpour still continue its filthy drama. Sigh. It's gonna be a long marathon for this rainy season which I hope it wont occur.

4. SPM! Yea. I know I am in an examination class this year. No choice. Compelled to reduce the time allocated for laptop and simultaneously for the Net too. Just now when I logged into my Friendster, guess what, last update was several days ago. Good. At least it becomes inactive and I could focus more on my studies.

So, factors contributing to the problem approach the conclusion.

Suddenly I wish to blabber out that...

I WANNA GO TO THE BOOKSTORES AND GRAB MORE REFERENCE BOOKS!!!
*I am so insufficient of 2009 edition of reference + work books XD*

Apart from that, congratulations to me and all my team members, the gross profit of our koperasi today hit 1K! Thank you guys! Thanks for lending all your helping hands! Muaks! I love you guys! Let us continue to strive hard to generate more digits in our bank account! XD.

I LOVE KOPERASI TOO!
*it's just simply too wonderful to be truth I join this club XD*

Adequate and sufficient to post so much random stuff this time. Fill up next time. Toodles and nites and rain rain go away =)

Of all the 26 Alphabets

Yes! I am back from holiday but something disastrous occurs! My dad realised that the camera charger just vanished. My mum kept on pushing the blames on me as she claimed that I was the one holding the camera throughout the whole vacation. Yea! I was holding the camera throughout the whole trip but the camera is now back at the drawer - SAFE and SOUND! The chargers then? I left them inside the cargo and they were all sleeping inside it for the entire trip cause I did not take any snap shot! Simple explanation! But yet they were trying to push all the blames on me! Duh! Vindicate off all the blames kay?

And just now I read a few blogs and of all the 26 alphabets we have, most of them are always using 3 spacious one... and they are...

S

P

M

Sheesh! SPM! Yaya! I know! SPM is around the corner and it's gonna be my greatest and last challenge in my secondary school life! I know this public examination determines a lot of stuff namely scholarship, college entership, future jobs etc. I am kinda sick of it and simultaneously I am freakishly nervous about it. I am confident in only few subjects like Malay, English, MATH, ADD MATH (my two fav subjects XD), Chinese and Moral. The remaining Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Science and History I am totally speechless when I encounter them.

Yea I know. Few more days left and it's a whole new year for me to kick start off. I need to finish my assignment (few literature questions left) and pack for a whole new year. Well I guess... I am prepared. I do hope so. God bless me please! SPM means a lot to me and with God's unfailing blesses and I also need to dump in extra and extremely effort to pull up my socks in those particular subjects which I am weak in. I know I have apathy towards them. But please.. I beg my ownself, just for the sack of SPM.. learn them well and pass it! After SPM, trash or file them up, it's up to me =)

So far my wish for 2009 are:

- Straight A or even better Straight A1s in SPM

- Health and wealth

- Slim down by 10 kg! XD *in my dreams*

nah. I will post up my 2009 plans pretty soon.. so stay tune XD

Sarawak Club Samarahan Branch

My parents were absolutely free today, I guess, that's why they decided to drive me all the way from my house to the recently opened Sarawak Club located at Samarahan. Whoo! Imagine how far is that from my house situated in Richmond Hill? XD. Nah. I just enjoyed the view along the journey which reminisced me about how frequent I travelled those countryside road this year.

A bit away from topic, but here's how frequent I am on the countryside road this year:

1. EAK competition at SM Matang Teknik (2 times)

2. EAK competition at SMK Sungai Merah, Sibu which I traversed there on road (once)

3. Civic Educational Trip to Cultural Village (once)

4. Ohana Camp (once)

5. Olympia Math Competition at UiTM Samarahan Division (once)

6. Visit to Swak Club Samarahan (once)

so if you sum up everything and give it a times two, picture that a city student would go to those places so often? XD.

Anyway, pictures are simpler than words. So i took a few snapshots with my brand new phone camera... 3.2 Megapixel, so some of it was kinda blur and I tried to savage it through Photoshop but it wont aid so much after all. Hehe. Enjoy the pic =)

Welcome to the... Main Entrance of Sarawak Club XD

The Golf Course. I guess some parts of it is still under construction =p

The Adult Swimming Pool... I am just curious why the other side is not covered with tiles??

Ya. Sarawak Club first spa.. It was actually quite small XD

I love this water feature located at the main entrance XD

The Terrace - a place for you to have your light fares.. similar to the Main Hall actually XD

Cream of Mushroom Soup

It doesn't taste as scrumptious as expected. The texture was coarse. Well, I just thought that it's only a simple fare, so care not much =p

Yea. My humongous appetite. I took the Green Salad too XD

Another eye-soothing water feature. Haha

Heh. This water feature was nice but kinda makes me ponder about a scene inside a Muslim Building situated next to Swinburne Swak Campus =p.. only it's tinier...

Yea. Last snapshot before returning. You got it. Just another water feature. Haha

Hmm... let me ponder, so this new Sarawak Club has still lots of room for improvement. If you wish me to comment, I guess I'll post up a lot of good and bad one simultaneously. But I just wanna save my time this time. If you wanna know more, why not just go see it yourself? *if you stay in Kuching* XD.

How Dare You?

I just returned from a relative dinner. It was in collaboration to celebrate their mum's birthday. I was so e-m-o just now when I saw them taking the MASSIVE, happy family photo. It suddenly made my grey cells to trace back those moments I had with my long departed grandma. Suddenly, I got so e-m-o as I am DAMN missing my grandma. Frankly, why did she depart so early? Sigh. It was just totally impossible but Jacq told me that's all God's arrangement and we had to accept it. Well, I hope my grandma's is now living happily in heaven. I read a mail before, it related that, death is the beginning of real life with God. Suddenly, I prayed hard that this statement is true! XD.

Well, cutting back to our main topic. Why my post's title sounded like bellowing straight into someone's ear pinnas? Yes, in fact I am. I learned from my uncle that his son aka my cousin is constantly ignoring his ill grandma aka my maternal side's grandma too. My grandma keeps on yelling at him, pleeding him to come down to take his dinner but he just ignored her persuade. What the F*cking Grandson you are?! You know you should cherish your grandma while she is still alive. You know how bad and disastrous and sombre it is when your dearest relatives vanish from this planet forever? You should acknowledge that you have lost your grandpa even before you were born and hence you should cherish and treasure your grandma even more!

I am not trying to sound like cursing anyone but frankly, once a person departs and leaves us, there is no way you will see him/her again. Yes, you can see them, in 2-Dimensional, in snap shots but they will no longer speak, laugh, share with us anymore! If you think there is still ample of time, how wrong you are! Citing HSM's Everyday's Lyrics "Once in a lifetime, means there's no second chance." Therefore, read the sentence over and over again and understand it! Our dearest and including all of us, we have only one life, we should live it up to the fullest.

While we can and as far as possible we should extend our interaction, bonding session and sharing thoughts session with our dearest family members, relatives and friends. Frankly, if you do not cherish the opportunity you own now, once the chance bids us goodbye it will never turn back.

Let me bellow through your ear pinnas again, "HOW DARE YOU NEGLECT YOUR DEAREST GRANDMA!!! YOU ARE SHOWING NIL RESPECT TO YOUR LOVE ONE! IF I WERE YOU, I WOULD HAVE DONE THINGS THE OPPOSITE WAY!!"

E-M-O much. XD

Holiday Recap

Hmm.. What did I do throughout this entire week of holiday? Guess I really need to tickle my grey cells to recap what have I done this mid-term break. XD.

I kicked start off last weekend with the boring, hell-like driving law lecture which killed my 5 sweet hours for sleeping, snoring, chit-chatting and hanging out time. T.T. Then, because I was so moodless the go out after the lecture, I miss a chance to hangout with my long lost (exaggeration applied here.. XD) sis - KEREN WEE da CHOCOHOLIC!!! She promised to purchase nice stuff to let me consume if and only if I went to Kuching Fes. Nope! I was a defiant bro! I went against her and so, I did not earn my food. Sigh.

Sunday, well, as usual lah, FIRST tuition of the holiday - BM! Choc! The teacher knows we are all in holiday mood so we spent most of our time taking turns to read the drama. Phew. Thank goodness it was not as boring like what I had in mind =). Hmm.. yea.. at night dad, mum and I went to Uncle Hing's house to have a party! The food my uncle cooked was fantastic! We had Teochew style steamed Talipia, Fried Noodles, Mix Vegetables, Deep Fried Crabs with Salted Eggs (yea! my grandpa's and sis, as in Evelyn's fav dish.. XD) and lots more. I suddenly felt so hungry and droplets of saliva were rushing down my mouth. XD.

Monday, though it was whole day of continuous tuition. It was kind of fun. Why? I spent the gloomy Monday Blue morning and recharged Monday afternoon at my favourite subject - ADDITIONAL MATH, and best of all, with my buddies!! XD. That day, me, Amanda, Marilyn and Shay Hwa spent our lunch break which was about 3 hours, roaming in Crown Square & Hock Lee Complex! XD. The food was so disastrous. I was so lazy to take snap shots of what junk we ate. If I post them out here, I can assure you you'll lose your appetite in a split moment. Trust me =).

Tuesday, dad brought me and grandpa to his favourite kopitiam at the Xia Huang Street at the old town of Kuching. XD. Yea! The noodles, soups really aided me to recapture my younger days when I usually went there to have breakfast with my sis and grandma when school breaked off. Well, beginning of this year, my free Saturday morning and also holidays were very much occupied by tuitions and school cocurricular activities which made me quite sick now. Well, what to do? XD

Wednesday, Add Math tuition but only during morning only. Thursday's life was usual except towards the evening. At 6.30 pm, I brought along the potato salad which I had prepared in the afternoon to Yun Hui's house. First, we had the Kuching High Red Crescent Camp meeting. Many ex-leaders were present, including HOWE! Speaking of Howe, a miracle just occured, HOWE finally got himself a Friendster account! Yea Jacquelyn, our dream really come true =) Jacq, remember the time when we guessed when will Howe create himself a Friendster account? Haha. That was our hot topic last holiday, at least for a few days. XD

After meeting, the night is still young. We celebrated Yun Hui's last day on Earth as a 15-year-old boy. XD. TY made the finest slide show and the food Yun Hui's mum prepared were scrumptious. BDW, I got thumbs-up for my potato salad. Whee!!! XD. *Excuse me for my vanity.. XD*

Friday, hmm.. not much.. was so exhausted doing Koperasi dinner stuff. Keep finger crossed everything will run well on that day, i.e. the National Day of Malaysia =). Special much, our Koperasi dinner. XD.

Saturday, early in the morning I threw myself out of my bed. Why? The graveyard of my long departed, loveable grandma was ready. So, according to Chinese tradition, we need to prepare feast for my grandma in collaboration to celebrate her to move into her new house. I was so emotional that tear drops again! 阿嫲！你知道我几想你吗？我好后悔那天来不及同你讲最后一次的“我爱你！”，因为我总以为你会长命百岁！(read this in Cantonese. XD) So, I was so gloomy for the rest of the day until last night when I attended Yun Hui's birthday function.

Thanks to Dawson, Daniel, Eleen, Tan Yee, Kian Pei, Kelly, Sze Tieng, Shirley, Tchii, Edmund and lots more. Thank you so much friends from dragging me out of loneliness and I feel so great after the function. XD. BDW, Happy Belated Sweet Fabulous 16th Birthday, Yun Hui! =) Ma! Now it's my turn to demand present from you cause you owe me prexie liao.. I have finally bought you present but you haven't bought mine yet =)

Today, special thing is, I remember to blog my entire holiday life in my blog here. Keeping my finger cross that I will excel in all my papers that I have sat for. Tomorrow onwards will be my judgement day. Pray hard for me! Thanks =)

STAY BLUE FOR TOMORROW,

STAY BLUE FOR SCHOOL REOPEN,

STAY CALM FOR TOMORROW,

STAY CALM FOR TEST PAPERS.

sigh. XD.

just a mere helpful adivce for myself. wont last long tho.

It's A Week I'll Never Forget

Seriously, this is a week, which probably I'll never dare to scatter my mind and forget what had occured! Oh my goodness! Believe it or not, all events which occured spelled the term "bad luck" and carried the pungent odour of "unluckiness". Continue reading why I consider this week as such an unlucky, traumatic and irksome one.

Clearing my throat, I began with the 2 major crisis that occured in the school koperasi. On Monday, Cindy was countercheking the leftover unsold Pilot pens. I trusted she got the correct amount but on Tuesday when Miss Lim and the supplier recounted the stock, trust me, a dozen was vanished into thin air, without anyone knowledge. What the! We were so petrified and were caught in astonishment when Miss Lim related that incident to us.

Frankly speaking, I never and will not accuse any of my Form 4 members will do that. Zhann is the trustworthy treasurer and Cindy, I have known her well since young. Apart from that, Edmund is also a trustable and reliable friend whom I have also known him since elementary school. Left Daniel, he was also the responsible kind though he was a little mischievious and talktive during time. However, when he fired up, he could be considered to be more serious than I am. XD. The leftover will be me. Seriously, not trying to show my vanity, why would I want to "shoplift" my own lovable Koperasi's stuff right? No point for me to do that. Picture the situation, if I were to do that, firstly, my reputation will be tarnished, followed by the fallen pride of mine and lastly but no the least, I am surely going to be busted from Koperasi. Hence, please vandicate all blames on us - I mean the Form 4 ones.

A little secret won't harm in this paragraph. The four of us, excluding Edmund, who wasn't involved in this "crime", decided to put on an investigation on our prime suspect *we weren't suppose to mention his/her name - only few of us who know this would know him/her*. We checked the secret hideout of his/hers and carried out some professionally done investigation. XD. Sorry for being vain.. repeatedly. XD. Our outcome was not uncovering the mystery of the missing products but it was something else which also did put us into astonishment. We took the evidence we collected and presented it to Madam Lee and Miss Lim.

The two "policewomen" then questioned the quartet and the prime suspect. Seriously, I myself had been repeating to the teachers that we Form 4 trusted one another that we will not do such humiliating stuff. OK? Got it? XD. Hence, to cease such thing to an end, I discussed with Madam Lee alone after the investigation.

I: I believe it's time for the Form 5, to completely hand over all their responsibilites, jobs and stuffs to us Form 4, including keys.

Madam Lee: Yes! I agree with you. I'll call an emergency meeting later during recess. Make sure all Form 5s and Form 4s are there. I will tell them all to retire from today onwards and hand over everything to you guys.

P/s: Am I influencial? XD.

Done - now the Form 4s hold the key and the Form 5s are given an abundent of time to revise and strive hard for their forthcoming SPM. XD.

Think matter is just solved like this? Although it is, there is another unpredictable event that took place. This week, the future prefect board exco member (in training) organised a spotcheck and this time round it was not about checking classrooms. Instead, their target switched to other venues such as RC room, St. John room, Art room etc. Worst come to worst, my koperasi is their new target too! What the Choc!

Following this paragraph... probably I should simply just leave them up. I do not wish to hurt Cindy's feeling, including what Madam Lee had told me. I just wish we could cling and maintain our friendship and not letting these matters put an end to our friendship which lasted for almost 16 years already. Done. No more crossing the limited boundaries. If you questioned me like a F.I.B. too, I can ensure you that my mouth is zipped and sealed. XD.

Back from shopping spree at tHe Spring. Dad and mum picked up some necessity and grocceries at the hypermarket there - Ta Kiong. Dad was pushing the trolley down the escalator. Mum advised him to use the flat escalator and dad was stubborn. He did not want to use the nearby escalator but decided to use the one located far away. Guess the prons and cons, everything was going on fine at the beginning but when we almost reached the ground floor, dad tried hard to push the trolley over but it was so hard that his energy to push it over was to no avail. Dad ended up falling down and somehow caused mum to fall too. I was lucky to stand in front of them. I managed to have a quick response and I also wonder where did I have the energy to push the trolley over the escalator. During that moment, I did not care much about the loads inside the trolley but quickly grabbed hold of dad's arm and pulled him up! Wow! Suddenly I felt myself like the Hulk or Superman or Batman or blah blah blah. *Snap my finger* Hello! Back to the reality. XD

Thank God Dad and Mum were not badly injured. Just some scratches. Phew. Thank God and thank myself for having such quick response. Hehe. Suddenly I feel so great about myself. And mind I remind you, do not say something that will make me feel like plunging down from the peak of a mountain down to the earth and I'll be satisfied. Thanks! XD

After that, I ended up sitting in front of my laptop's screen and my 10 fingers dancing a hip-hop on the keyboard. XD. My eyes feel like closing as I really did behave like a wild shopaholic today, from reference books, novels and to trendy clothes. XD. Just serve as a FYI, a bought referece books on Mathematics *such a Mathaholic, ain't I? XD*, Chinese *aww. I do love Chinese, don't I? XD* and Account Principles *What the Choc? For what reason I bought those? Yet to uncover the truth behind it. XD*. I bought another copy of Agatha Christie's and also my long-desired John Grisham's "The Last Juror". Judging by the first chapter I finished gobbling in MPH, it is really a fascinating triller. XD. Bought a pair of jeans in Lee's Denim Shop. The shop was indeed giving out discount which made me to make up my mind to persuade dad to buy it and dad was attracted by the sale. Hence, the duo bought it. XD.

Yeayea! I am so exhausted now and I hope to close this chapter with a really sweet, nice, fabulous dream. Hmm. Guess that's the end of this chapter and with the finale of this chapter, I also do pray hard that all bad lucks will simply just fly away and let the good luck blooms. Thank you if God or anyone make that dream comes true. XD

Running down on energy supply yet refuse to stop blabbering but now, I compelled myself to put a dot. XD

"HAVE A NICE DAY"
