@Genting~

Finally set foot again at the highlands. And as usual, it's more boys than girls. :P

The Appetizers

A pretty rushing and weird schedule, which ended up Tiff and I waiting at my house for hours before another hour at the terminal and yet another one and a quarter hours at the Skyway station. hoohoo... We had a 'buffet dinner' of various pickles and snacks at a store there~

Photoholic! The camera in hand is the best medicine to cure boredom.
And thanks to Tiff and Wei for taking over the camera-person job sometimes. :)

Cable car!! I don't know why I like it (maybe because it brings me to Genting?!), and it's the first time going up at night.
It was cool!

My first time staying at the apartment block. Experienced the distance from it to the central of the little town, it wasn't as tiring as imagined. :)

And the cold winds that I miss the most...

Main Course
Two ultimate tasks. First, to enter the Casino legally!! (No, I never entered illegally~)

Our aim.. is to get the free drinks.. Haha~ I adore the lights and glamore inside, which was themed with different designs at various sections. And it was cool we had a guide.. it was Meng! :P Didn't know he was so knowledgeable with the place...hehe. And thank you a lot for the sponsor, though unfortunately lady luck wasn't with me.

The second task at Theme Park - Space Shot!!! Whooo... Been on a similar one in Taiwan, but not this. Jek and I have been longing for it the whole day!

The Space-Shot Squad :P



YEA~ MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!! :D (And TS's unbelieving look?!)

Side Dishes
Bowling! I've so longed for...

And the unforgetable vertical throw into the air by Tiff!! Whaahaha.. damn scary!! XD

Snookering and Pooling~



The most popular activity - Card games. Chor-dai-di.
It was there the first night,


The second night..


Even in the cable car...


And basketball shooting.
First night..

Second night..


Yumcha-ing
Old Town

Starbucks


Dessert

Lazy-ing around...


HH-ing...


And no, I'm not part of it. :P

---

The spoiler of the trip, is rain. The so many rides we have to forfit because of it.
But overall, it was more than just great. The circumstances, the dizzy head came visiting again as expected, but well, hopefully will be over in a few weeks.
And even more important, the people to go with. *Huge thanks to the guys for accommodating the two of the girls!*

We Are

Finally met up S Ying after almost a year.

So glad we could still chat like the first day we met. And how surprising that we could talk about those that I never talked about with anyone else. Thanks for lending an ear, thanks for your opinions.

It's a huge pity that we didn't meet up earlier. I do hope we will still be whom we are when we meet again.

All the best, friend. :)

World Water Day

The significant but seemingly unknown day. Water that makes the Earth special and blue, that gives life to living things and structure of everything else. How beautiful it is, yet many are taking for granted of it.
Oh, too much crapping~

Well probably what made the day more significant to me was it's relation to Rynn.. hehe. Attended the Tinge World Water Music Festival at BTS, where we were happily supplied with few bottles of free Tinge! No Rynn no Tinge... muahahahahaha~~



Anyway Rynn was there to perform, we were there to see him.





There were a few other artists, including Will Ng. Somehow the crowd was there mostly for Rynn (and Will), kinda pity the others that they didn't get much of audience reaction when they tried to make the show more 'lively'.. (err.. shaking too much?!)

Even more thrilled when knowing the autograph session was for the postcards and posters!! Hoohoo... and thus us with our loads on stage. A last-minute request and got my name beautifully signed on one of the posters :D Undoubtfully happy~~

And later, got to talk to him a bit (and rather idiotically) close up. He's getting rather skinny nowadays... worrying, I'd say? Sweet guy, told us (again) to take care when going home :)

Quite some time since we last saw him. While he keeps himself in his room wit his guitar, I hope he will eat more :P
Kinda miss the cute strong TieTou...


And people, love the Earth, save water!!

Missed

I was wondering what it is that marked the date of yesterday.
And I just realised...

It was Hins's Concert!!

Too occupied by exam preparation that I even forgot about this.. (or should this be better off than having myself grieving over it? :P )

Ooo... how I had longed for it :(

Hmm...

Alright. So I might not be some superwoman, though I do try to help as I can. But that doesn't mean you can take advantage of it.

What do you treat me as??

To you, it might seem so easy that I just give a hand.
Somehow, I'm fed up with the way you ask for it, that you take for granted of it.

I thought you were a friend.



Come on, I'm also a human.

說服

The least I can do
is to not let me worry you.


坚强一点。

again

Just when I need the highest efficiency and output power from my brain, it starts to overheat.

I caught flu again!

Very bad timing...

Look what I did

I got pissed off by the shuttle service yesterday, so I made a firm determination to make a complaint about it. So I ended up at the SAO. And so the head happened to be around when I submitted the feedback form. And so he got to hear the complaint from me. And so he directed me to talk to the head of the department in charge!

Whooo... I hardly predict it would be so efficient to get a reply, in say, 20 minutes??!!
And the reason to my complaint is, the shuttle buses have been sent for maintenance.

Oh okay. So we didn't know about it, and we are supposed to be understanding of it!
WHAT IS THIS??
Anyway, huge thanks to the SAO head for the help.

The day was considered with a bit of excitement. Haha. With me sleeping only a total 9 hours in three days - yes I'm terribly exhausted now - I had a huge task which dragged me to the college so early.
I was there for drama shooting!!
Ermm.. well, just a little Kelefeh in the background, glad that we didn't have any talking to do or the super-blur me would certainly get scolded! :P A great experience though :) [Oh, and even skipping class, just for the little pay~]

生日会啊~

我想这是第一次也是最后一次在家里办生日会啦。。（哈，姐姐有，我也来一个了~）
很高兴又和我的dear见面啦！还有我们家孟哲和小刀，看来五五六六还没出现得七七八八啊。。不过很感谢你们出席啊！好想念你们哦。。。

我说你们这一班男生啊。。。终于体会到你们有多恐怖啦！！一到来就乱了我的节拍呀。。。汗~
为了不辜负你们要求，我还是真的豁出去啦！！好耶，让我穿上裙子就不能和你们一起闹啦~！！
不过很感谢你们的大礼物，很喜欢 谢谢~~ (不要再叫我穿了，好吗？）

可惜啊，这次的蛋糕不如以前的好吃，奇怪当时怎么那么喜欢啊。。。嗯，是蛋糕我都喜欢！！哈哈~









Thank you all who came, thank you all who remembered... :)
A great birthday eve~

My 21st

The so-called "officially an adult" day...

But then, I don't feel like growing up~
Haha...
It feels so heavy to be a grown-up, or even taking a final year course in a month's time... arghhh~

Anyway, some aims to accomplish this year (I hope).
First, I want to be healthy!! Really wish to go swimming every week (though it kills my hair), or at least a jog or two in a week. I've been getting bruises over my legs and hands lately, hah... should be more careful la, clumsy girl!

Second, to get rid of my specs!! Have been getting tired of my glasses since last year, I wonder if I should just get a laser op, and I do worry...

Most of all, I want a smooth year, and everyone well and happy...

差劲

梦想还是妄想？

我自己都分不清。

是之前台高估了自己，还是到现在都不相信自己的能力？
为什么别人能办得到，我却还呆在这里，来回不定？



我到底有没有奋斗过？

Ah Sian's 22nd

After two weeks, I'm finnaly gonna update about it.

The first time I joining in the celebration of one of their birthdays. A great time indeed. It was a long time that I had a day off! Hung out at the boys' place, watching Boys Before Flowers when my eyelids were struggling to open..haha~

Was the first time (I thought) I went to the Look-out Point... when in fact I had drove up that hill when I was training for my driving license!! Haha... a great view indeed from the peak.



And a whole lot of thanks to JF who gave me a ride home :)

结果。。。

计划一次又一次的延迟，当我终于做好心理准备要到外头居住时，突然有告吹了~
也难怪我那么念家，到哪里也只是‘暂居者’！哈~
是有点失望，还是没得尝试自个儿的生活，
当时还想着终于可以和大伙儿们去打球啊，喝茶啊，之类的。。。
后来却又有些开心，因为还可以在家吃晚饭！！=）

那边的人说搬出去方便很多，这里的人说家里比较温暖。。。

结果我就继续两地跑的生活！
是更加累了，更多复习要做，更多事情要处理。。。

撑着点儿。。。加油吧！！

爱的鼓励！

Feb 28, 2009, Sat
It was a super long and tiring day for me. But it was way longer for them.

Strangely I wasn't in the committee for both the events, yet I was in campus the whole day til night for both. So kay-poh..hah~

Went over to kacau at the TechComm Camp after the Zilog Workshop. Such a pity that an event was REALLY FINALLY going on and I was already out of the committee. But still had a 'guest appearance'!! To get into trouble.. eheh~
And as usual, as the paparazzi~


Just too bored...

During spotted Mr Ammar's cute cute son during ice-breaking!!



The banner and the little peoplesss~


[From left] Dr Hikmat, the committee and I!


The swimming pool was closed. But later saw people wadding out of it.


While they were having group discussion.


tire, tire, tire!!


The crazily uncontrollable people!!

And as expected, the games were the most fun part (coz the other parts were boring to them...)

My assigned station


Way Meng's which he flew off from to get the dinner ready~


This was the MOST FUN of all!!! But I couldn't watch from my station being blocked~ sobzzz


Suen Eng's station. This was challenging but interesting~


Danny's station. Should be fun watchin them too.

The BBQ dinner was supposed to be the most anticipated part, but ended up the committee and so few of the locals 'enjoying' it.



Oh look! The tahpau-ing people!


The leftovers, btw

And while waiting for the caterer to clear before we do the finishings, we have entertainment.


Special performance but the previous VPs. =)



It was then someone brought up the clapping of 爱的鼓励，which was fresh since I haven't done it for more than a year now (followed by a mixed-up clapping echo of the foreigners nearby..haha). It was fun, it really was.

It was indeed so much more work than expected, especially with the lack of committee members. Got some rough feedback (most are...), and well, what do you expect for an event about technical communication? I salute you all especially those who stayed up the nights (and hopefully you won't do that again) to cater the preparations! I'd say, this was even better than the Tech Comm course we had previously! And hey, the games were cool! (I must conquer the blowing ping-pong balls thingy~!!)

One good thing about it all is that ESA is made known to the juniors. And some came around to ask about it and some were even interested to join the committee. That's the huge reward of all the hard work. Such a relief!



爱的鼓励. It was what the team needed, encouragement. From external sources, as well as among themselves. So people, GAMBATEH!!

And thank you.
Thanks so much for making me feel like a part.

Zilog 2009

Was at the Zilog Workshop held by our IET student chapter to help out. But basicaly, I was useless there... since I'm not part of the committee.

Id say the one last year was better as it was clearer and more effective to be conducted by the lecturer himself, though the seniors did quite a good job. Anyway, I was there to help out even not as part of the committee. And photographing, my habit... hah, the camera as my toy~




The morning sky was nice~


go red!!

Halfway, noticed Kexin's puppy goin sleezy... bored?


Then caught Waiwai enjoying himself in the new environment!

I wish I could be sitting with you!! =D

The half-day event was successful, ending with us having lunch under the sunlight-exposed cafeteria.
An experience, better than nothing. :)

the CHEAT

The first time ever in university. And probably the first time ever in my life.

Getting CHEATED by the LECTURER CONTINUOUSLY!!! I can't believe she did that for the second time this semester!!!
What'a hell is it, to set questions out of the syllabus of the exam?? Who do you think we are, and WHAT do you think YOU are???

Ms K, you won't see an ending just like that.

Swimming pool is meant for swimming.

After a year plus, I finally see clear blue water in the swimming pool in the campus. but what's with the lecturer so surprised seeing people there??! Isn't it meant for swimming? Hah.. I would too, but not when knowing people would be staring down at me in this theoretically (bcoz of engineering programs) and practically (girls seldom swim or exercise) male-dominated area! Haha...

Anyway, the one-and-a-half-hour swim on Sunday had gotten me miserable for these few days. Too long time in water... cramps and dehydration! Enjoyed it though~ Far better than jogging!! =)

And now I'm craving for bowling!! =D
hmm.. how long later will this be?

My Valentines, 好远。。。

Thought I would be spending the day with the data comm textbook, but surprisingly find myself in the middle of the town that night! :P

Was at the One Live Outdoor Broadcast concert! I guess that was my first various-artist concert, and we had to stand way at the back to watch, like 150m from the stage. It didn't feel really good, especially since Rynn only sang ONE song! And the song is [远远] (Faraway)... so it fitted the broken hearts~ All the squeezing, all the sweat, for 5 minutes...

Not all the way bad of course... I am glad I caught the performance of A-Bin, the newbie in TW!! And wow... I like his voice a lot! It's high-pitched and powerful, like Junsu's...

One conclusion I can make is, the city night life isn't for me.

the Name

It was the first time using it, the name.
It's strange as it feels labeling myself with it. But in fact, that was the purpose of it.

No matter what, I still prefer my real name.

it's like a cny day

Slept a lot, ate a lot,

but did nothing much significant.


I miss last year's CNY~

And It Was CNY

Yea... thinking how quickly it has passed by. The longest CNY holiday for years, and the longest period of days we've been back in hometown (which in fact wasn't too comfortable...I missed my bed).

It was rather surprising yet pleasant when I find the girls starting to mature in mind, or at least it was a lil different in the conversation with us. I guess they do need a lot more of exposure to the true world now as they grow up, and not be restricted by the TV and cartoons. Had a lot of fun with the youngsters, even for me, who never really initiate to play with them.. haha~

CNY started earlier when we attended a Halo promotion event at Sg Wang... and way too happy that I got them posing for my camera! (Rite.. no big deal, but it was crazy..)

The one who got the most flashes that day...


Cheng Lee and Will Ng! (Will was so cute~)


Tang Xiao Kang! He actually asked Rynn to pose for our cam!! So nice of him! =D


Man Jiang Hong

It was Chinese New Year, with the greetings and Gongxifatchai's and all, the angpaus and lots of food. How terrible it was when the naughty stomach got upset again, but was somehow okay on the day of CNY itself (yea, I bet it was longing for the bbq dinner on the eve...).

And I FINALLY learnt a game on the mahjong table! Right... I do hope I won't forget the method AGAIN... It was fun, except for my blurness~



It was CNY, yet you see a person with a huge red heavy bag with books inside... that was me. And hey, I DID study!! It was pretty suffering though, when everyone else were running around yet I had my face buried in 68000... And so were the other days after that when tests were there to draw frowns on the face...

Another open-house for dad and mom's colleagues and friends. However, many people didn't turn up, and thus the tons of leftover food... We've been having satays for the 4th day now...

Happy TEST-ing people...

好人？

如果对你好一些就是当好人，却要牺牲了那么多，

那我宁愿当坏人。




好人难当啊~

Turn Back Time

Time, look where we are and what we've been through
Time, sharing our dreams
Time, goes on and on everyday
Time is what it is,
come what may...

Things just don't turn out to be what is planned, even though how much effort we have put in it. Sometimes we just have no idea if the choice made is right, even though we thought it should be when we made the decision.
I can't say I regret, because I know I went through a lot then, mentally, I didn't have to expose it. Just a matter of time, and people.

A lot of things I have to get used to, some that I still cannot get used to. Like not having the crowd of friends in the same class, like having myself grr-ing over someone...
And how I have not gotten used to not attending the meetings and activities with the usual gang... and how we sit at the meeting room and I hoping for good news from the pink monkey owner...

How much that things have changed, I just wish the friends won't change for the worse. Last few years I would have regretted for not choosing a program having more girls around, yet sometime now I actually thought I am glad to have them, guys or gurls (ermm.. yea.. except.. ) walking down this path with me.

Yea, I miss them.
Let's have the reunion dinner every year (or semester!) =D

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun...

The New Year

It sucks.

When there is concert event at the campus (FOR FREE!) and I cannot take part. Again.
Guess it's just ain't my faith to do so, as I always had been since I joined the university...

The year started with a food-poisoning which was so serious that it got my mom suspecting it to be appendicitis~ **Thank goodness it wasn't!** Or I wouldn't be going for classes.. and would have missed the chance to watch MAMMA MIA! Yea~!! Never thought I could be watching the musical LIVE!! It was of course superb, and somehow again, we loved to stare at the band... great music! I love LIVE MUSIC!!

The new year marks the start of the new era of my degree program... Year 3 officially, with 4 lab sessions a week! My oh my... previously 2 sessions was 'exhausting' enough~ Lots of readings to do, whether the lecturer is good or not.
Arghhh~ I wish I could turn back time~

Trees

Happy New Year!!
And I thought I would just post the photos of the many Christmas trees in the lion land... The various designs I saw in one season~
There were many more that we saw, I'd say these are the more significant ones.

One in a shopping mall.. marvelous!

The Candy Tree

The reddest tree..

The huge one at Vivo City! It was so bright during night time~

The elegant tree~

My own favorite... The Teddy Tree!
