It had been two days since I last updated my blog. These two days quite lazy to key in entry although got a lot to write about. Ok let’s start with start off with tennis. Ermm I wasn’t quite happy with both of the finalist because both of them are extremely arrogant. So boo to the winner and the finalist. And also because of that I didn’t really bother to watch the game but instead I rather study for my upcoming examination. On Sunday Timothy gave me some Burger King coupon where my friend and I went there to study and also have our lunch there. Guess what?? We ordered to many burger we can’t even finish it.

So speaking about studying, I manage to learn some smart studying method which is quite effective I guess. Keith preached that morning saying “a smart way to study is by using images.” I studied management by using story and also codes. Hope I really can remember those points in the exam. If you are ready this. Just remember to keep me in prayers.

Yesterday night my brother and I went to Popular book store to get some paper to make valentine gift and anyway gift paper that involve the colour red is all being sold out. We had forgotten that it is about to be Chinese New Year and also Valentines Day so I didn’t manage to get the stuff that my brother wanted. However, when I was in popular they actually played a song a Cd and this song really caught my attention for that minute. It is called Sundial Dream by Kevin Kern. I went to ask where I can get this song. As you all know I love instrumental so thing song is quite touching for me.

Today was a simple day. I wanted to eat sushi so badly I drag all my friends to accompany me. While waiting for Sushi King to open in Subang Parade. I drag my friends and I to celebrity fitness. Ermm I got to say the only advantage they have it is just the class they provide. True fitness and California is way better than this gym. And they only gave us 3 days membership that is what I don’t like. I cannot continue to type anymore cause my body is now aching from the gym. Signing off

              This is actually my first time understanding how this tennis game works but my biggest disappointment was when Roger Federer had been crushed out of the Australia Open together with Rafael Nadal. The world no.1 and no.2 are supposed to meet each other in the finals. Justine Henin and Serena William had been kicked out too. Ermm this tennis game is kinda interesting. Hehehe what happen to the champions??

            I went to college today and everyone is in their study mood because exam is about one week from now. It is just normal to see to many people in the library studying. However I wasn’t in the same mood as them as I prefer to study before hand. My style is actually kinda relax compared to most of them but however I really can’t seem to score that well. Today we had only one class and I had a bad eye irritation and I might be wearing spectacle for these few days.

            While evening approaches Shaun, Joey and I head down to bangsar to have dinner together. We went to bangsar village near which is also located in Jalan Telawi. We end up having our dinner in Delicious Café again after a satisfying meal last time. Although the food we had is slightly more expensive than secret recipe but the food really live up to the restaurant name. It is really delicious I had to say. If your looking for a classy place to have a meal, here the place to satisfy you. Why am I promoting this?? They should pay me to do so.. Hehe Oh yeah it is my first time buying Haagen Dazs. Expensive but enjoy eating those yummy ice-cream

            I went to the show room to check this car out. It look nice at 1^st but if you really test the car by yourself you will find that this car is just luring you to buy by its look. Furthermore, this car from the back it’s like a Latio, city or a vios imitation. Our new proton model is another tin can car. I started by knocking on the car material. It seems like if even I sat on the car material it will bengkok in by it self. Then I started lifting up the booth very lightly and the booth just flew up. My goodness I think this car is even lighter than me. So if you ask me to invest on this car, it’s a definite No.

            Another day of my life has passed. Yesterday my friends came to my house and to do an article on youth surviving without mamak. Mamak is just for our convenience sometimes. Cooking have a lot of procedure not to mention the worst is that you have to clean up the dishes and also the mess you make from the dishes. If you ask me actually I don’t really cook but if you want me to cook I actually can. We are actually supposed to fake the scene whereby we pretend that we don’t know how to cook. But I end up cooking for then delicious spaghetti carbonara and also mash potatoes.

Telur

Believe it or not these are the only ingredient to make spaghetti carbonara

            My friends really can’t cook. I just can’t believe I have to cook all the dishes by myself. But I just want to thank them for helping me prepare the ingredient. After we cook we went to find another friend of mine in ss15. We end up eating supper in Jalan 223 in PJ. Guess what the whole meal cost RM12.50. I wonder if they count wrong because listen to this, we ordered 7 packets of nasi lemak, 1 Roti arab, 1 nasi goreng ayam, 2 otak otak, 2 set of telur setengah masak, 1 set of roti bakar, 7 ais kosong, 1 milo ais, and 1 teh ais…. WHAT Rm 12.50!!!! Count wrong ah???? Ermm I belanja them actually and I guess that’s the right time.

            Why today everything seems so slow?? Especially my streamyx. Really gets into my nerve when u have slow connection. Too bad I’m not a good complainer if not I would have call Tmnet to ask settle this issue once and for all. I really need to do my research yet they served such a lousy service. Anyway my exam is kind of near and by now I should have started something but in fact I only started doing my statistic. Most of my classmates describe business statistic as “German Literature” which means something we will never understand. In fact thank God for a friend like Kah Hin. He really helped me a lot in my business statistic. Not to mention he is very smart. I’m really proud to have a friend and schoolmate like him. Let’s make SMK Subang Jaya proud. Hidup Smk Subang Jaya. I’ve just notice two of my schoolmate who just finished their SPM joining the Metropolitan University Foundation Programme. Hope they too can make SJ proud.

            Today was a great day. I went through Jamie’s blog awhile ago. She actually made a video in remembrance of our lovely class AE4. I got to admit that clip really was very emotional, can cry man. Looking back at those 2007 memories where I usually bring them around with my Proton Waja and almost get them all killed really bring back some memories. I remembered the times we use to spend together as a class. Too bad many had gone and I deeply cherish the moments we had together. As this semester is coming to an end just want to thank everyone in AE4 that made this class the most happening and the most memorable class in my college life. I like to thank Joey, Jamie, Joash, Joanna, Adrian, Shaun, Beatrice, Eva, not forgetting Alvin Original, Wing Chee, Lena, Vincent, Ah Long, Pichu and Su for making this class a great one. Long Live Ae4!! Hope we can get our degree together in the future but as for now let’s work hard for finals shall we. Thank Jamie for the clip. It is really a good one.

            After the presentation, my friends and I went to KFC in ss15 for lunch. I ate the new triple XL burger by KFC and I have to say this burger is good stuff. Absolutely something you don’t want to miss. However I find out that actually they kinda like copy the spicy chicken Mcdeluxe from Mcdonald. It’s just that this burger contain more vegetable which was good and healthier. Well all fast food I not healthy. Anyway I wrote this just to thank Joey for the KFC voucher although it is just ten ringgit but she chooses to spend it on us. So for that I also appreciate her generosity.

            After lunch Shaun and I went to some fish shop in Usj to see some fishes. I didn’t know that Arawana is actually kinda expensive. Such small fish costs about RM400 each. I was so tempted to buy fishes but end up buying feeding fish which only cause around like Rm 3 for 30 fishes. But I’m actually quite happy because can some cute pet such as hamster, turtle and Guinea Pig. All very look very innocent and cute pets. Alright got to go get back to work. Signing off

            Now is 12.15 in the morning and writing this blog entry before I get to my bed. I was actually quite emotional today for no particular reason. Don’t know why I woke up this morning, maybe I haven’t had enough of sleep for the past few days. I then went to church putting in the friendly face while serving in the café. Every Sunday seems like daily routine to wake up and go to church. But every week I can see everyone in improving week by week. I can see new members taking up ministry and worship team playing as professional musician not the mention the vocalist voice is getting sweet week by week. My tribute to Adrian Cheong, I’ve seen him playing guitar since he is still in high school and in a three person band with my other friend, Eugene as the drummer, no doubt he has improve a lot since he started joining the worship team. Of course not forgetting Pastor Kevin who never fails to deliver great message that touches and change people’s life. I wonder what I improved since stepping into church.

It’s a good thing that I thought about the word improvement. I’ve always wanted to improve in every area of my life. Improve in my relationship with my sibling and loves ones, improve my relationship toward God, improve in my studies, improve in my communication skill, improve in my musical skill, improve here and improve there. The question is that have I achieved so far. I actually have a theme for this year that is to improvement. Not a silly and impossible theme but what I believe is that as a human being we have to improvement in our life. What is the biggest achievement in my life is being able to face my fears such as stage fright.

I had been having stage fright since I was in form 3. I can still remember the day when I was humiliated by my teacher in front of the whole class. Won’t tell how did that happen but it have been a bad experience ever since that incident happen. Throughout these years, I just thank God for helping me face my fear with challenges. I soon find my self being able to stand out in the crowd and really speak up. Tomorrow is my presentation and I have to say I ‘m actually quite excited to present. Pray for me. It ‘s been a busy day. So I think I better go to bed. Good night

            I just came back from steamboat. As usual I overate again. Just can’t resist the mutton and beef in the barbeque steamboat. It is located in Kuchai Lama which is quite far from my place. But I felt good eating though. Probably when I get my car next time I would probably drop by for a meal. I now plan to get back to my work. This is my last leisure day and I shall focus and work hard for my studies. But however don’t know why suddenly I’m not in a very good mood today. Probably exam is coming just being stress out with my work. Hopefully I can cope with my studies. Dear Lord please help me in my studies and help me endure those stress that I face in my life. Amen. Signing off this tiring day. Ciaoz

            Here is another day of my daily journal. Today I had a replacement lecture in the morning and it is the same lecturer that I’ve mention in my earlier. Hopefully his New Year resolution this year is to step out of class less but I doubt. Anyway, I’ve just realise that my presentation falls on this Monday. I can’t believe that time move so fast and it is going to be February just in a blink of an eye. I always believe that life isn’t just a bed of roses but I probably just want to enjoy more instead of studying. However my studies are still more important. I haven’t started anything also but I will start soon la.

            Today was my last day playing pool and seriously I have not been playing well since the day I was trash by Chun Wai. I think I need to save some money and take a break for pool. Hehe which is hard but I’m gonna do it. Tonight my friends are bringing me to steamboat in a restaurant called Restoran Talipon. Dunno where la just follow. They said the steamboat there is famous and nice. I don’t know whether true or not. I just came back from jogging under a blazing sun and suddenly don’t feel like eating but I’m going anyway because I don’t want to miss out the good food. Muahaha that’s all for now. Signing off

            I first started of being Jdrama addict to a Tvb drama addict. Yes I love touching and meaningful show that can make you laugh and cry at the same time. I kinda amazed how many drama I watched since the starting of the semester in college. Anyway these are some of the good drama series that I’ve enjoy watching so far. I watch it all on Crunchyroll.com and tudou.com

My boss my hero

This is my first Jdrama show recommended to me by my brother. This series is freaking funny and it is the show that gets me started becoming a Jdrama addict. This series makes me laugh and also cry at the same time. It is a show about a Yakuza going to high school and how his life changed after going to high school. This series is very meaningful and not to mention there are plenty of beautiful Japanese actress also. It is a comedy series that I highly recommended and I can guarantee you that you will like it.

        Sakaki Makio, also known as "Tornado" is a tough 27-year-old high school drop-out. By academic standards, he's pretty dumb. His father decides to force Makio to return to high school to receive his diploma and he asks an old friend who happens to be the principal of a nearby school to admit Makio. If Makio doesn't graduate, the position of boss will be given to his younger brother, Mikio.

        Furthermore, he must pose as a 17-year-old during school hours and in the presence of any classmates or teachers outside of school. If his cover is blown, it would be the end of his high school career as well as his hopes to become boss. Things start out rough and tough as Makio's violent temper is tested. As the lessons and days go by he learns there is much more to school than just tests and studying.

Great Teacher Onizuka

            This is my second Jdrama and I watched this series because due to survey it is the No.1 most watched series in Japan. This series is also a comedy and has a great story line. It is based on the manga GTO which was then made into a Jdrama series. This show is about a teacher who went in a high school being hated by his entire student and even the teachers that tried to get him fired because of jealousy. His student planned traps and also obstacles in order to get him fired as their homeroom teacher. However, every episode he gained each of his student trust towards him and by the end of the episode he made his entire student proud him. Overall it is a funny and also meaningful series.

            The drama series is based on the manga and anime of the same name, both created by Fujisawa Tohru. The story is a sequel of lesser known series Shounan Jun'ai-gumi (Shounan Love Gang) where Onizuka Eikichi's rogue high school days are depicted.

Sorimachi Takashi plays Onizuka Eikichi, a graduate of a third-rate University and the leader of a motorcycle gang, whose lifelong dream is to become a teacher. After being hired by a seemingly eccentric director, Onizuka begins his unconventional way of teaching a hopeless group of troublemakers. Although he meets much opposition from the students and teachers themselves, his passion for teaching, and more importantly, his students, eventually convinces everyone that Onizuka truly has the makings of a great teacher.

Men don’t cry

            I actually haven’t finish watching this series but for now this is great comedy. When I finish watching then I will write more.

Survivor law 2

            I started watching this show because I was addicted by the first episode shown in Astro. So I went to tudou.com so search for more episodes. No doubt this is the best tvb series I watch so far. The storyline for this series is good. It is also funny and at the same time meaningful. But waiting for the episode to be posted in the internet seems like a lifetime. Patient is virtue though.

War of the in laws 2

            War of in laws 2 is a series about how a daughter in law and a mother in law get their head on each other. I have not finished watching this series but I can say it is currently quite a good tvb drama series.

            Yesterday I was too tired to blog. Three days I have been going out non stop now I can finally rest. Today I woke up feeling sick. Hit by a bad flu and now having running nose. I probably woke up in the wrong side of the bed. My friends are still asking me whether I still want to go to Langkawi. But I actually left like Rm350 left in my pledge to fulfilled so couldn’t follow them. Kinda sad right. But I think at the bright side. The reason they want to go to langkawi is that is because of the duty free on liquor and cigarettes. I don’t drink liquor and take cigarettes so I don’t get a point enjoy there. But if I really want to follow them then most probably I got to find a free lance job. Free lance job is the smarter way to receive extra cash. However where can I get one??

            I woke up this morning forgotten what I did yesterday. I went to college then oh yeah Shaun and I went shopping. I mean window shopping. Waiting for Joey and Emily to shop seems like a life time. And the worst part is they only went home buying a bag. David Oh, you are right man. The business world now aims on women. I drank Starbuck again yesterday. And now I can officially declare Starbuck as SUXXX together with J. Co donuts. Probably I drank too much again.

            One of my New Year resolutions last year is to learn 2 more dialect or languages. However last year I’ve only manage to learn one language which is sign language. Have to admit I’m kind of disappointed with myself for not achieving my own New Year resolution. I’ve only manage to complete half of them. But I’m actually quite happy because I've gain something more instead of learning. I was able to read simple Chinese character.

Today I went for karaoke. No doubt, it was fun as usual. Socializing with my college friend is always fun because they plan a lot of outings to release stress. If some of you guys went karaoke with me, you all would know that I usually memories the pinyin lyrics word by word before going to karaoke. This is to prevent me from being lost out when it comes to sing mandarin songs. But what I’m amazed is that every time I sing karaoke, I’ve notice that they actually used the same characters again and again. And I myself was surprise that I could actually read some of the characters. I guess this how people learn Chinese the easier way and at the same time have fun in learning also. Last year I couldn’t speak or understand a word of mandarin and often been mocked and laughed on the hilarious slang which I still have now, But I believe deep now in my heart, that I shouldn't give up learning language despite of the failure last year.

            Oh yeah about today, I have fun again. No more assignment. So we went celebrating to red box with Shawn and Gary. They are fun karaoke kaki. After karaoke I guess is back to work. Today I treat my self with some J. Co donut again. I had to say this. J. Co donut now SUXX. Hehe Maybe because I ate too much.

Emo Jamie, Fat fat alvin, Leng Lui Joey

Micheal Chong Rocks and Wong Fei Kei Tan

J. Co Horrible donuts

Cause I ate too much

            This is not fair at all. My friends all finished their pre-U already. But why am I so slow. Tomorrow was my deadline for my assignment and now I’m just double checking my work. This management lecturer I have is someone who is born lazy. Can you imagine a lecturer that walks out of class every 15 minutes? This is the worst lecturer I have so far yet he is giving me so much work to do. Now I am helping my friends with their work. Double work for me but I guess it’s good. hopefully can get full mark for this assignment.

            If I’m not mistaken my exam is about 3 weeks time. All exam time is from 2-4pm. Who would want to come to college at 2-4? My friend was once late for exam because he woke up late and he stayed very far. It really does benefit him though  Oh yeah, my friend said that the new astro on demand drama, War of the In Law 2 is a nice Tvb show. After being a Tvb drama addict, I’m definitely watching this one. That’s all for today I guess. Don’t want to cerita panjang lebar.

finish checking at last.....time to save

            Cooking always seems too hard for me. Since I was young my favorite dish is always the Maggi 2 minute instant noodle. But as I grow up I soon learn how to make proper meal such as soup, porridge, spaghetti and etc.etc. As for me, I’ve replace instant noodle wit spaghetti. Since joining the café ministry in church, I always observe how my ministry members cook but never tried them on a regular basis. Kevin always encourages me to try cooking lunch in café with them but I step down those offers because I really have no confident with my own dishes. Why? The reason is very simple. I once try frying a dishes called belacan kang kung. And when I fried the kang kung with belacan, for no reason I actually put salt. Now you don’t need to be a rocket scientist to know that it is super duper salty. So at that moment I have given up all hopes in cooking.

            If you all remembered, I went to Australia last October for a vacation and also for my brother graduation. At that moment my brother was having his graduation party and to my amazement he can cook. I was so amazed I came back and try it out in Malaysia. But unfortunately Malaysia doesn’t provide the same ingredient as Australia. Cold storage is one of the best places to buy ingredient despite the expensive prices.

            Well now, to my amazement I actually can cook too. But there are always try and error in everything we do. It is the whether we want to step out and do it. I've watched Ratatouile and this phrase caught me. EVERYONE CAN COOK. I’m now in the process of learning. Today I’ve tried making chicken rice and I have to say it is a success. Hehe so what can you cook today. I've got loads of recipe that i wish to learn by the end of this month.

            Today was a busy day. I went out since 12pm in the afternoon and came back at 12.30am during the night. If you ask me whether I still got strength to do my work the answer is a definite NO. Today I went for a class reunion which was not a very successful one. We actually planned for 13 to 20 people to come for the reunion lunch in Cabana and I think only 10 turn up. Most of them were late, Jeff and Li Xing bought J.Co donut for us. How thoughtful are they. Anyway I have fun seeing them. When I saw Vienna, we kinda like her new hair style. It really changes her a lot. But it will not change the fact that we still call her dentist. Glad to meet up with my high school friends like xia Xun, Melissa Khoo, Hwee Hwee, and the rest of the gang. They are certainly fun person to hang out with. One outing done and next is to attend Shawn’s birthday which was in Ampang. But 1^st we got to meet up every one in Joey’s shop before we go to Ampang.

the slimmer XX, the curly vienna, same hwee hwee, fatter Alvin, same Melissa

The old vienna xia xun and me

Thanks Jeff and lixing for the donuts

vienna new hairstyle is nice until i cannot recognize her

After lunch, I walk my self to Joey’s shop down the road to pay a visit. The stationary called J&J just in front Taylor’s main campus. At that moment she said she want to go back and change 1st. She asked me to play pool with Shaun in Asia café. I played pool alone in Asia café because Shaun wanted to play foosball. I didn’t know that I’m quite good in this game. I clear seven racks by my self and only paid Rm6.80 for the whole table. Well the next thing I want to learn is foosball. Today I met Alex in Asia café also. He is on a holiday break from Curtin in Australia. Man he’s good foosball. I cannot believe he actually beat my friend Shaun in foosball even when my friend is practicing it everyday in Asia Café. He seems like an expert in foosball. I then tried playing a game and I couldn’t even dribble the ball properly.

on our way to ampang

Camwhores king and queen.. me and joey

our group pic... p.s i edited the pimples. so next time pls wash ur face ..hehe

            After playing pool, Shaun and I then head back to Joey’s shop where she was as usual late again. This time is a little better she only late for 10 minutes. I waited for her for an hour before. Joey, Jamie, Shaun and me went off to Shaun’s car and then left for Ampang while it is raining quite heavily. But thank God we reached there safely although Shawn brings us for a little detour in KL before we actually reached our destination. Shawn’s house was nice. His family really believes in Feng Shui. I can see from the fish coil that his family owns and also the jades in his house. His family is very friendly and healthy. They actually use organic vegetable and olive oil to cook the dishes. And surprisingly the food turns out to be good.

Golden Coil. one fish cost more than 1k and they got 13 fish

Healthy food

Even more healthy food

Lepaking in Shawn's room

the punishment is the wasabi sushi which we force shawn to eat in the end

the dare punishment. the royal engagement between two guys

            His party was a fun one although I’m kinda scare of the punishment in his games such as the wasabi sushi and also the dare he prepare for his games, It is kinda scaring not knowing if that punishment will fall on you although it is fun to watch when other are conducting the punishment. We playing the Fuyoh game and also charades and we actually won something out of the charade game. Thanks Shawn for preparing the gifts. Oh yeah his dog Koko also very cute and manja lo. Anyway Happy Birthday Shawn and thank a lot for the hospitality.

Metropolitan student group pic

Of cause not forgetting Koko ..adorable dog

i'm not scare of dog...just scare they bite me

Happy 21st birthday Shawn

            We all rush back home because Joey has curfew which ends at 11.30pm. Reached back at 12.30 and now feeling sleepy but I still have to finish typing this entry. So I’m signing out this busy day
