Accusations

I hate accusations. I hate being accused and that's probably why I always feel bad accusing others.

My mother misunderstood me over something really insignificant and the worse was that she presented me in a very negative image to my uncle. Not like I care what my uncle thinks of me. But, I was very disappointed with my mother as she didn't ask me the reason behind that silly, little matter and just announced to the whole wide world that it was solely my mistake. I was expecting my mother to be matured and rational in handling this issue but, I guess I was just being too wistful and impractical.

However, I'm more disappointed with myself - I didn't have the guts to tell her what happened and I think I never will.

Cool Quote

" Autobiography loses it's lustre when everyone is doing it. "

- Patrick Stump (Fall Out Boy's lead singer)-

Yeah, I totally agree with him. I'm actually surprised that he could produce some meaningful quotes like that. Or, perhaps that's the only meaningful one coming out of his mouth.


I'm a proud owner of an autobiography - Steven Gerrard's. Well, I am a fan of him and dear, it took me quite some time looking for it. But, it was all worth it. At least, I think it was - He's the captain of the giant Liverpool and has inspired the entire squad to stardom. So, I guess it's safe to say he's worth reading about.



However while I was searching high and low for that book, I bumped into a couple of autobiographies of people (sportspeople) whom I don't think have the calibre or credit to publish books about their chronicles. Some examples would be Ashley Cole, Damien Duff, and et cetera. These are players who have got no credentials to brag about. I totally agree with a football pundit who said that players can publish their very own autobiographies only after they have retired. I mean, it's reasonable to perceive Tiger Woods, Michael Phelps, Roger Federer on the cover of their books. They are world record breakers, winners of countless titles and in short, legends. But, Ashley Cole?! Oh, come on!

Recently, I heard the news that Amber Chia has come out with an auto of her own. I don't know, I still don't think she's that great to actually pen down her story. Maybe, she's the only local model who can make it abroad and that's why people think she's a great character to analyse or, maybe I'm just jealous of her. Oh, whatever!

My boyfriend and ask him to fight. Why should I break my sweat, anyway?

97. What have you done regretted doing in your whole life?
Uhm, not being able to express myself a little more often. I guess it's the things which I have not done rather than the things that I've done which I regretted of.

I'll cry. Then, I'll pick myself up and care for myself instead of just waiting for others to do so.

99.What if your boyf/girlf two-timed you?
I'll give him a big, tight slap and dump him.

100. How do you feel now?
Hungry and feeling the urgency to pee.

No Matter What

We had this sort of family gathering yesterday. In fact, we have this sort of gathering like every week that it no longer feels like a gathering. It feels more like a habit now. Anyway, the family gathering was held with a cause - to celebrate the 1st anniversary of my nephew's existence into this brutal realm. Yes, at such a tender age, he has already made a fortune out of his birthday. My father gave him RM 200 and I heard that all the other uncles and aunties bestowed him a whopping amount of cash. (Grumbling) Hey, I didn't receive such a fortune during my birthday! In fact, nobody had realised that it was my birthday! JUSTICE???!!!!

Jealousy aside, yesterday was a bitter-sweet experience to me, I guess. The entire occasion was occupied with loud clamour and deafening noise. I wasn't comfortable at all in the restaurant. My aunt, as always was screaming and yelling across the table for no particular reason. I don't get her, really. At that point of time, I was so eager to seal her wide lips with sticky tape or even to stuff her large mouth with a bun. She was lucky because I couldn't find those items in the restaurant. She was bloody annoying, man. I have never enjoyed loud noises. I know, I know, you must be cursing me by now. But, seriously, I really can't stand high volume voices. For the record, I get annoyed easily. I know, it's difficult to please me. Well, I'm renown for that, you know?

But, things started to change as time goes by. All of us started blurting out lame jokes and stale stories. My aunts and uncles started teasing each other and we, the next generation started chuckling at their seemingly ridiculous acts. I guess, we are truly carrying the same blood after all. We tend to take them for granted. But, they are the ones who treat us with sincerity in the end. There may be a list of things we loathe about our family, but we cannot deny the fact that we are related to one another. I started to feel very warm towards the end of the celebration and I realise that this gathering is worth it.

I admire my father a lot. Besides being a responsible and caring husband and father, he is also a very good uncle (in my opinion lah). He never jerks back when my cousins are caught in troubles. I have this cousin who is adored by all my aunts and uncles, including my father. However, she has offended all of them lately. It was because there was once where she was offered a job in Singapore and every single member of the Teh was very happy for her and even gave her some money to start a brand new life abroad. Some of my uncles and aunts weren't in a stable financial condition. Still, they voluntarily handed her money. She didn't elaborate on what happened in Singapore but she returned after a day or two there. She couldn't get the job but she spent my aunts and uncles' hard-earned money on luxurious stuffs during her stay in Singapore. All of them went ballistic and now, no longer care about her. My father was mad too but, has quickly forgotten about this incident and still constantly invites her over to our house for dinner or gathering. My father has always believed in the saying that "blood is thicker that water". He even guarantees her that all her aunts and uncles will not scold her and will not mention about the past anymore. Awww... yeah, I'm a very proud daughter of my father. Though I admire my papa, I don't think I would forgive her for the rest of my life if I were my father or one of my aunts. Hey, it's the result of my blood-shedding and sweat-sweeping moments, ok? But, since it's not my money, I am sitting on the fence and care less about this issue. I still greet her and talk to her as usual. Plus, she remembers my birthday every year and posts various birthday gifts to me. Why should I go against her, anyway?

Hence, the moral of the story is that family will never change no matter what. (Gee, sounds so lame lah.)

Wanting to Spread My Wings

I asked my bro yesterday of whether he knows the route to the heartbeat of Kuala Lumpur - Bukit Bintang. He told me very few details which didn't give me the audacity to travel there on my own. But, I really want to go there. You know, walking alone around all the malls and tourist spots. It must be really cool. I have never felt such a strong desire in me to step out of my house until yesterday. Perhaps my mother was right when she said that I'm beginning to become 'fat hau', wanting to go here and there without anyone telling me what I should do and where I should go. I have always considered myself as a home-sick type of homo sapien. I would rather stay put at home, watching my favaorite tele programmes, playing some pokemon games and listening to some soothing music. I guess I've changed - Now, all I'm thinking about is to walk around different, interesting places and really, to walk and enjoy the sight-seeing. At times, I really do want to fly abroad and try living beyond Malaysia's national boundary (who doesn't want to?). Perhaps, I won't like it at all or I would actually learn to fancy it but this doesn't matter really. I just want the experience and not to be intimidated by my peers who fly in and out of the country like nobody's business. Upon hearing to their moments overseas, could only precipitate envy and jealousy in me. Well, they have never turned into hatred (don't you worry), just some sort of annoyance i guess.

Are you a fan of David Archuleta, listen here if you are. There is a pretty song that caught my ear drums wanting more. It's entitled 'Touch My Hand' from his self-titled, debut album. Perhaps you should check it out. Tata....

Deja Vu Again

Lol... Guess what, I paid Mid Valley a visit... again. (Not again?!!!) But this time, no shopping was involved. Instead, I watched 'Twilight'. I had always wanted to watch it, considering all the hype over it. But, didn't see it coming that fast. It was all because of Cathy's remark about the movie that hasten the rate. But, I'm glad that I followed her advice - It was a decent movie. I wouldn't rate it that highly. But worth watching, I suppose. However, if you are anticipating a full-blow-to-blow action-packed film, you might just find this movie disappointing. It is a very romantic yet dark movie. It kinda reminds me of a Cantonese production called 'Twins Effect'. It was also about vampires and the love stories between them and the mortals. But, Twilight's vampires do not have fangs and pointed ears (haha...). I don't know - the Americans tag this film as the American version of 'Harry Potter'. But, I think the kids who are below 13 would prefer Harry Potter over this. To me, this movie is cooler than Potter without a shadow of a doubt. So, I can very well expect contradicting opinions on this movie.

Moving on, I have finally bought the book which I've been longing for months ago.

'Ugly' by Constance Briscoe. Haven't read it yet but will do so very soon.

Deja Vu

It's amazing, or rather awkward - I've been to Mid Valley thrice for the last 5 days. The first, with Cathy, Sylvea, and Jackie; the second, with Sylvea (that was totally an unplanned plan) and today, my mum and bro accompanied me (not true! - I accompanied them). Planned to watch High School Musical 3. But, my mum ruined it - she asked me to discard that plan because she wants to go home early. Gosh, and I was dreaming about Zac Efron minus Vanessa Hudgens (just to show how eager I was to watch that movie) all night long. But that also goes to mean that I've saved RM 7. In fact, I made her promise me to buy the HSM DVD (pirated one lah of course. My mum's very stingy. Whose won't?) instead and guess what she replied - "7 to 8 ringgit only mah, ok lah". Ironically enough, she would go to Giant to buy a packet of toilet rolls when she's located in Carrefour simply because it's cheaper by RM 1 in Giant. Haih.... wonder if I would be like her when I'm her age.

Lol... 50 years later, I will look like them.

10 Promises To My Dog

Aww, it was one of the most touching stories I've ever perceived (but I always say that whenever a movie activates my tear gland). This morning, Sylvea texted me - telling me that she's bored and asking me if I want to watch movie with her. So, I pun very excited and aswered "Okie dokie". I personally wanted to watch High School Musical 3. But it's on screen only at 4 pm (so 'potong steam'). Hence, we decided to watch "10 Promises to My Dog". But to be precise, I was the one who called the shot. Though I was afraid I might make the wrong choice.


However, it didn't disappoint. Unless you are a hard-core, no-nonsense fan of action blockbusters like 007, you would definitely like this one. It's a touching story revolving around a girl named Akari (14 years old), who owns a dog, called 'Socks' (because he has a lighter tone of fur on one of her paws which makes it look like it's wearing socks), not long before her mother died. Actually her mother was the one who took the puppy into the house without her daughter's knowledge. She hopes that the dog would substitute her in Akari's heart and she makes Akari to promise her dog 10 promises, hence the title. Her mother died. As she grows up, she starts to abandon Socks. She has a boyfriend and friends and no longer cares about the dog. In the end, the dog dies at the age of ten. And gosh, she cries like nobody's business when she is reminded of the 10 promises. Sylvea and me sobbed quietly but heavily. We exited the cinema with a pair of red, teary eyes (How embarrassing was that?!). Seriously, I think I started to cry from the middle part of the movie till the end. I think Sylvea cried earlier that me.


I reckon the most poignant dialogue was where her mother said to her daughter, "You have friends and family, but I [Socks] have only you". That just reminds me of my Fye. It made me feel like giving my bunny a big, tight hug right away. But, I guess there's something which I dislike about the film - The way the young Akari calls "Socks!". Throughout that first half of the movie, she has called out countless number of "Socks!", that it became cloying. It's uhm... pretty irritating with the repetitions and her voice too. It's not all teary and moody though, it has some funny bits here and there too - the most hilarious of all was when Akari's best friend's dog is stuck in a box and when he gets out of it, his huge fluffy hair is styled after the box's shape. Can you imagine, a dog with a square face? Lol... Overall, I like it a lot - I also like the fact that it's a story, reciting the entire life-span of a dog (10 years). It doesn't just skip through the years like "5 years later" and "the end". It envisages each stage with details, but without any complexities. It's very straightforward without acquiring the viewers to take time to digest the story. This is what I fancy the most about this movie.


Gosh, now I'm looking like I'm giving a movie review or something.



Oh, ya! - Have I mentioned to you that Akari's boyfriend looks old for his on-screen age?

Am I Being Pampered Too Much?

Haih, although I'm the eldest among my siblings (I have another younger bro), my father adores me more than my bro. Maybe because I'm a girl. Not trying to say that my papa is a bias leader of the family, but he seems to tolerate with my attitude, no matter how rude I am.


For instance, this morning, my bunny hopped out of the bucket which I put him in when I was washing his cage. I took him and put him back into the bucket and he got out of it again and again. I got so fed up because I had been spending almost an hour just to ensure his cage is squeaky clean. By the 3rd time of him running around my garden, I couldn't stand him anymore. He kept on running and stopped and run again when I was prepared to get hold of him. I shouted at him - "If you want to stay in there, stay in there for the rest of your life. I don't care about you anymore!!!". I got really angry and blasted into the living room. Both my father and my uncle saw the rage in me and asked me, what happened. I told them about the my mischievous pet and that he's still wandering around in the garden. And both of them went and caught Fye. But not without some sacrifice. My uncle got his arm scratched by Fye's strong hind leg and in fact, he nearly fell down the drain while he was trying to catch him. I didn't know about this until my father told me this afternoon. Now, good - I feel so guilty now.


Then, my mood got even worse. I was really hungry and thought of eating some of the cakes bought by my cousin yesterday night. My aunt took out all of them out and ate a little bit of all the cakes. I wasn't mad at her if she was just trying to taste the cakes but the grossest part was that she used the same fork on every cake and that fork has her and her daughter's saliva. The cakes now have all of their saliva. How eeeewwww that was. Seeing all the sharing saliva activity, I decided to not eat and just entered into my room with a manifest crossed face. But before retreating, I told them that, "I don't eat other people's saliva". Later, my father brought in a piece of cake, telling me not to worry because he has sliced off the contaminated area. Awh, how sweet of my father to do this!


But after all these circumstances, out of a sudden, I am starting to question myself if I have gone over the board with my hot-tempered actions. Have I been overly pampered by my family? I always thought I was doing the right things all the while. Perhaps, it's just because nobody has come up to me and tell me that I'm wrong, in my face.

Looks can be deceiving - Though Fye looks cute, look at how large those hind legs of his are. They are pretty lethal. I'm sorry, uncle!

Tomorrow's the Last Day!

What am I doing here really? Obviously, I'm procrastinating when I'm supposed to be studying Tort right now. I don't know, nothing seems to be entering my head at the moment. I guess this is what you call the post-exam symphtom - where your feelings/senses just go numb once you step out of the exam hall. My contract paper just ended (hours ago). This is one paper I personally reckon, the toughest of all (including the other subjects). Yeah, no surprise. If you ask the others, they would most probably be of the similar opinion as me too. So, right after jotting my last full-stop down on the answer sheet, my mind started firing point-blank. Nothing was in my mind but to sleep and really to rest. But, I couldn't. I spent 3 hours in the library staring at the 'Trespass to Person' notes. After 3 hours, I was still at the first page. You must be giggling by now, don't you? Haih, I'm currently still waiting for my father. So, in the mean time, I will continue to procrastinate.

I'm Exhausted

It takes only 8 papers to bring me down. I can't imagine how am I going to face the next 4. I'm really tired. I want to sleep. But I can't when I start thinking that I have to study tomorrow. I just don't want to face tomorrow. And that grandma doesn't want to continue writing on her blog - another route of entertainment being shut down. Gosh, I can't stand it anymore. I'm really sleepy. I want to sleep. But.... Oh, whatever. Now, good - I'm hungry. Fine then, I'll go and eat while watching Pokemon, the movie. That would buy me some time. Gotta go now. Catch up with you guys later.

Right After My Law P1

I've finished law p1!!! Oh, my... and what an experience. I could finish the paper on time - something that I had never done before. I kept telling myself that I have to write faster, faster, faster, and faster. In the end, I could really complete it on time... but not without the help by Mr.Siva. I sit in the very first desk of the row. So, the consensus is that my answer sheet should be the first one to be collected. Haha... surprisingly, Mr.Siva went straight and collected from desk no.2 first and swept the entire row before my turn. So, my completion of the conclusion was all because of him. Anyway, it's not that I'm confident that I'm going to score an A or something - it's because I left out a few important points so that I could really get to the conclusion as soon as possible! So, not really confident. But, hey I wrote an average of 3 pages per question, so that's pretty amazing.... to me (oh, have I told you that my writings were particularly large today?) Lol... Fine then, gotta go and study King Lear and Gulliver's Travels, books which I would say the toughest to read, understand and answer. I've got Law P2 and Eng. Lit waiting for me tomorrow. Lately, I've been listening to the theme song of 'Triumph in the Skies'. Don't know why, nor do I like Eason Chan but I find it very soothing.

I Officially Hate Nicole Scherzinger

Yup, your eyes are perceiving the right words, name and verb. Hmm, you must be thinking "Why?". Well, did you watch the F1 race in the Inter Lagos, Brazil? Yeah, Lewis Hamilton won. And guess who was there all praying, cheering, screaming, and jumping for joy? - Nicole Scherzinger. All right, now here's how the story begins - First and foremost, I'm a fan of Ferrari. Hence, surely, I was rooting for Fellipe Massa (the Ferrari driver). However, Lewis Hamilton (drives for team McLaren) won the championship for this season. So, I despise him because of the obvious reason. Plus, he is darn arrogant and he's a Brit. Did I tell you how much I hate Brits? Wonder why I'm a fan of Liverpool FC and Steven Gerrard? Anyway, in case you are not aware of it, Nicole is the rumoured girlfriend of Hamilton (well, I guess they can't deny that revelation anymore after this). Thus, there you go, I hate her simply because she has a boyfriend whom I dislike. Can you spot the conspiracy theory now?



By the way, sorry, Jackie.

Bizarre?

I had like a full 2-week off. I didn't need to go to college except for last Wednesday. Just to collect some notes and other stuffs. I know, you must be thinking - Oh, COOL!!! But the reality is - it's not cool at all. Whenever I had any spare time, I constantly reminded myself - "You have to study". How boring was that! But the worse of all was, whatever that I've planned to study was unachievable. For instance, I took 3 days just to study poetry instead of the supposedly 1 day. Not that there's a lot to study (well, that's part of the reason), it's because I kept telling myself that "there's another week left. I don't need to rush. There are some awesome shows to watch on Starworld. Let's watch it (I spent 3 hours to watch Grey's Anatomy every day - they broadcast 3 episodes of it per day). And I just bought a couple of DVDs. Let's play it (I just watched a Pokemon movie. 4 more to go). Blah, blah, blah." I took my own sweet time, thinking there's tomorrow. But there's always a limited tomorrow. Only 2 'tomorrow' s I could tell myself. After that, hehe... here comes the nightmare. But, as much as it sound pathetic here, I actually feel very calm and relaxed (perhaps, even overly relaxed) with the wind, silence, and Fye (my pet). Oh, well, I guess it's time to say tata. I even made this (blogging) as an excuse to take a break from studying Econs.

Pretty Lame but...



Where's Everybody?

My friends just gone quiet these few days. They're not posting new juicy stories, new revelations... I'm bored at home. Come on, just write something, ok? Dah lah I'm stuck in my house, no entertainment pulah. Well, besides watching animes, Hong Kong soap operas, football matches, badminton tournaments, F1 races, and can't wait for the Astro beauty pageant tonight... there's nothing else really. (Can you sniff some element of irony here?). Sorry, too much of Literature these days. The poems are driving me crazy. Finished with memorizing them, I had to analyse them and not forgetting to memorise their literary devices. God! Feel like reciting "Away, Melancholy" now (in case, you don't know, "Away Melancholy is a poem in our syllabus). Gotta go now. Catch up with y'all soon (hopefully).

Say "No" to Ex*mination!

Okay, no mention of examination, A-Levels, studies,... etc. Oops, did I just mention it? Just want to update my whereabouts - I now have a maid. Yay! I think Jackie would understand how happy I'm feeling. I don't need to wash my dishes anymore, wash my shoes anymore, do this, do that anymore. Haha... it's all because... the maid will do all these for me, or rather for my entire family. She is pretty hardworking, you know. Well, she's been here for only two days. So, it's still too early to tell. I'll update you about her progress later then. Just for your information, she will not be here for long. She is a temporary maid. Just to help my mother to make some cookies to sell during the Chinese New Year. Yup, my mother has already started to envisage about the coming New Year. Pretty advanced, huh? (For goodness sake, it's 3 months more.) Speaking of being advanced, my mother, in fact has asked us to start purchasing new-year- clothes! I don't know. But don't you think that's a little toooooo... advanced? I didn't buy anyway. I don't have the cash$$$ to invest in such a grandeur. I might need to borrow from the "Along" to buy them. I'm now like "kais pagi makan pagi, kais petang makan petang". Hey, I got an A1 for BM in my SPM, u know.
I really want to watch "Eagle Eye" lah. I am always a fan of Shia Labeouf. But somehow, I never like Even Stevens. He's too ridiculous in that show. Looking forward to his performance in the upcoming Transformers sequel. Besides, "Eagle Eye", I want to watch "High School Musical 3"too! It's on screen on the 24th of October. Hehe.. it's before my ex*m (I remember my promise). I might just grind out some time to watch it. Didn't I just say, I'm broke? Erm... I guess I have to add another RM 7 into the loan from the 'Along'. Gotta go to and check out which 'Along' can provide the lowest interest rate. Bye! And erm... if there is anybody (especially those who look "ganas") who is looking for me, just pretend as though as you don't know me, ok? Lol...

Ello!

Here I am. I'm back! Finally managed to sneak some time out to write something. I thought I would be freer than before since, the revision is "supposedly" finished. But, little did I know that there are so many sassy(s) and extra classes to attend. I think I'm on the verge of having ATC allergic. The symptom - puking whenever I visit the college building. I no longer have feelings for the library (hehe... like I ever have that).
Gosh, I'm really tired. I guess I better hop on my comfy bed like... right now. What a day I had today - with the Mr.Suku bumping, Mr.Sara lecture, wet soaking and worst of all, the traffic congestion (stuck in there for 2 hours) experiences. Oh, before I forget, just wanna wish all my buddies all the best and good luck. Sleep well, eat well, study well, and may god bless ya all!

Go & Study... NOW!!!

It's funny, because whenever one starts to say that they were stuck in the house all day long, the next statement has to be that "it's not that I studied or anything".
We now are really getting worried that others would speculate if we are studying/revisioning or not. It sort of lifts the pressure of us, isn't it?
And somehow, we would be relieved when someone says that they hadn't been studying. Relieved that we are not that left out after all. Then, we'll lay back and "goyang kaki", knowing that others are not working towards the exam.
Hence, here's something for you guys:
"I am studying, studying, studying...
day and night, 24/7, day in day out, week in week out, every second, every
minute, every hour, every moment, in the room, in my bro's room, in front
of the tele, in the toilet, in the kitchen... I eat
A-Levels, I drink A-Levels, I shit A-Levels, I sleep A-Levels, I wear A-Levels,
I erm... couldn't think of anything else anymore. I study anything
and everything. I like studying. No, I loooove
studying, I fell in love in studying, I have a crush in studying... blah blah
blah. Seriously, I can go on like this forever."
Now, how about that for a motivation. Now, what must you say when someone does a favour for you?
Now, I believe you should have the motivation to study by now. Go now, shoo shoo shoo. Get your books and gear yourself up to study. Remember to come give me a hug when you receive your flying-colours-results. Erm... except for the boys. No but thanks.
This is Sue Peng, signing out.

Akon feat. Sue Peng

Lonely I'm Ms. Lonely,

I have nobody,

For my owwnnn

I'm so lonely, I'm Ms. Lonely

I have nobody,

For my owwnnn

I'm so lonely...

Nope, it's not that I'm crying or something. But, haiz, just rhyming this song the entire day. I think this song, especially that part of the lyrics totally exemplifies my day. Sylvea, Cathy, Jackie, none of them turned up today. I had to sit in a row of seats with nobody else beside me. I know, you must be saying owh, how pitiful she was. But, no harm done. I didn't feel depressed or agonising or excruciating or... whatever.

Hehe... today, during Mr.Suku's lesson, once again he was reprimanding the absentees. But, it was funny because

"They are peeling the wrong onions. They are peeling potatoes."

Found It!

Ok, I found it. I mean the Econs Revision Planner. It's with Cathy. Hehe... she mistook it. Can't blame her. I didn't stamp my name on it in the first place anyway. So, phew...

Tuesday, September 23, 2008

Attention, Everybody!

I beg for your attention please! I've lost my REVISION PLANNER - ECONOMICS (AS) !!! If anyone seen it or if it's with you, could you please see me as soon as possible? Just so that I won't think that it's lost or something. -TQ-

Poor Me

Yo, I'm in the college now. Break time (Econs class). OMG!!! I have already expected Cathy to not attend Econs class (Mr.Khor). But I couldn't believe that even Sylvea didn't turn up for taday's class. And that's not the most pathetic thing of all - There were only 3 of the entire Jan/Feb intake present. Carine, Jovan and of course, the poorest child, me. And now, here comes the climax of the story - I did not bring the Econs Revision Planner. Well, technically I did bring it, but it is the A2 one which I brought. Please remind me to fix an appoinment with an eye specialist when the class has ended.
For now, I am just going to cry and pray that the class ends A.S.A.P!!!

Library Boredom

Well, today I spent like 5 hours in the library. Not continuously of course (I would be dead by the third hour). Though, half of the time spent on day dreaming on staring blank. So, you can tell if I really do study. Being in the library has sort of become part of my run-of-the-mill routine. It's manifest to the extent that a March/April intake student was stunted, learning that I'm from Jan/Feb intake. She thought I was an Intermediate student simply because I've constantly been appearing in the library. Hmm... I thought I always have the green-belted tag on?

Everytime I wander around for lunch, I would tell myself that if I bump into the 66 bus (the bus I take), I would head straight into the college, collect my belongings and dash off to hop on the bus. But, I guess the God has been doing good to me for I haven't seen one until this afternoon. In fact, it's not only one but two. I saw one on my way to McDonald's and another one back from McDonald's. Guess what? - I didn't blast off like what I contemplated to. Yeah, I guess you can say that I'm a coward. Whatever!

Hehe... I read Eu Chern's blog yesterday. God!!! He's feeling the stress??? I don't think so. Or else, he must be a very good actor. (Ladies and gentlemen, please give him a round of applause) He has won himself an Oscar. He looks very confident and relaxed, as always. Nevertheless, I did witness him attending for all sorts of SASSYs and attempting past year questions. Plus, he was in the library today for the same amount of time I spent in there. If he's stressful, should I hit the panic button now?

I somehow felt glad to see the likes of Neela passing up assignments to Mr.Sara. Could really see him getting himself down on the business. Wish him good luck for the A-Levels. Hey, he once said that hard workers do not need luck. Guess, he doesn't need my wishing at all. Anyhow, wish him all the best. By the way, great hairstyle, dude. Guess, Sylvea taught you a thing or two about fashion, ey?

Speaking of Neela, here's the update for the Mr.Suku's case. Right after Mr.Suku's complain about the poor attendance, Mr.Suku compiled in together Neela's name to Mr.Guna that Neela was hanging around the college, instead of attending his class. Mr.Guna went to the ground floor (lobby) immediately. Here's the tickling part - he actually asked Neela, "Do you know who is Neela Murasu?". And Neela replied naively, "Me lah." I know, you must be kicking your feet and chuckling by now. I mean, how silly and dumb he is. No offence, Neela but, Rajinah's illustration was too good that I couldn't stand it and spit those words out. This is such a huge LOL!!!

Oh, and I really feel bad over something today. It occurred when I was having my lunch in McD. I went over to occupy a table after getting my McChicken burger, french fries,...etc (so many that I can't list all of them down). There was a guy who simultaneously walked towards the very table I was laying my eyes on. I got it first, but when he looked over to the rest of the place, there wasn't any empty table left. So, he asked if he could sit together with me. I was like... "Oh, okay." We sat down and I actually got freaked out because the next table right beside me was occupied by one man. I was asking tons of questions to myself like, "Why doesn't he want to sit with him?" I grew worried over the time as there was one table vacant later and he still didn't want to excuse himself. Things changed then, as I told myself that nah, he looks like a good guy. Then, he asked me if I live nearby here in Mandarin. I had to "hah?" for three times before shaking my head denoting that no, I don't live here. That pretty much tells the story of whether I'm a decent Mandarin user. Back to the story, I think that freaked him out because, as usual I would give a cold face to the people whom I'm not close with. That's what exactly happened. I guess, he misconstrued my expression. I could see his face changed rapidly. He too grew cold and the worse was, he ate really quick and just left after washing his hands. Watching him heading towards the exit, I was apologizing non-stop. It's my fault after all for giving him such a cold shoulder. It ruined his lunch, perhaps? So, to the guy, if you are reading this, just want to say that I'm sorry for the discomfort I caused to you.

Shit!!! Liverpool drew with Stoke City. What's wrong with them?! They can defeat the mighty Manchester United but not the flimsy Stoke City. Okay, you can say that the Steven Gerrard's disallowed goal should stand as Dirk Kuyt didn't get a touch on it. Still, they should be shooting on the goal relentlessly. Fernando Torres, obviously didn't play well. Well, yeah, give him a break. He just recovered from his injury. But, there's no excuse for Robbie Keane. He played like he was from Burnley or some lousy football club. 18million pounds??? He is so not worth it. Not even the super sub, Bable could save the day. Poor, Steven Gerrard, tried really hard but couldn't get good service from his teammates. (sigh)

Sylvea was once cited that she's glad that I have been blogging frequently now. Well, to tell you the truth, I got hooked up with this is because this is arguably the only way for me to keep me on my toes everyday (besides sports). My routine is as always, damn bleak, lacklustre, boring, dull... Thus, I always look forward to receiving all those comments from you guys. It makes me excited and upbeat about life, you know? So, keep it coming. The more they are, the happier I get.

Mr.Suku's Boiling Point

Here I go again - talking about an old, almost-bald, and miniature lecturer. But, today was very interesting. I guess Mr.Suku's patience was tested... once again (Not again!!!). The only thing which makes the difference this time was that he can stand no longer. It was manifest that he was absolutely livid about the poor attendance, especially by the Jan/Feb intake. Lol... the irony was that Jonathan Chin attended his class today. Wonder if he has the ability to foresee the future. Okay, back to the main topic - Mr.Suku has now gone one-step further than his usual long pep talk and out-of-nowhere digression to prohibit this frustrating matter. He reported this matter to Mr.Guna and Mr.Guna, of course was very concerned about this and asked us to convey a message to those absentees - If they don't turn up on his next class, he is so going to contact their parents. Woo... oh, yeah. He might be old but he still has the blaze to threaten people. Go, Mr.Suku!!!
Haha... as much as that sounds bitter, there's something nice and sweet happened today. I don't know of it sounds startling or tickling to you, I actually sat in one same table with Aaron, Nelson, Sophia, Andy, Rynn and CY in the library. Frankly, I don't talk a lot to them (that pretty much tells everything regarding my closeness with them). Though it may sound and seem awkward, I actually relished it. They were all very funny. Nelson, especially. He was very drowsy and he rested his head on Aaron's shoulder. Then, Aaron stared at Nelson gawkily. Everyone burst into laughter. Lol... what an experience.
Oh, and did you guys read the Malaysian Today's paper. There's a humorous article smacked right in the middle of the paper which is given the title as - "101 Reasons to School Them in English". There are many examples of English language follies which most Malaysians commit. Forget about the moral behind the story, just read the funny bits. The most hilarious of them all is this:
During a war scene in a movie, a soldier tells his men to run for cover and screams "duck!". The subtitles read: "Itik!".
Now, how about that!

Doubting Jackie's Sobreity

This is a special note to Jackie. Yeah, it's you, alright. Remember, when you said that March/April Intake is surprisingly silent during lessons. Erm... eat your words now. They were bloody boisterous today and not forgetting, yesterday (during the Eng Lit class). Okay, I was running late for Law (Mr. Sara) and the class was packed. Thus, I had to stuff my butt on one of the back seats and making my backbenchers' debut. And oh my, the guys there were catastrophic. All their clatters and chatters were so disrupting, that I think it drove Mr.Sara up to his wall. Yesterday, during Mr. Suku's class was pretty much the same thing as well. So, Jackie, were you actually sober during all those hours you spent with them? No offence, but not even Cathy could agree with you.
Speaking of the exasperating March/April Intake, there is one guy whom I particularly loathe - Emanuel (the Nigerian guy). It's not that I discriminate against the blacks, but he is contemptible (Okay, that word might be a little too abrasive to describe him. But I couldn't think of any other more suitable word). He made fun of Mr.Suku yesterday (pay attention to this one, Sylvea). Yes, it is undeniable that Mr.Suku is at times, cranky and hilarious inadvertently, however, I reckon that the E guy has stepped out of the boundary. And there's something about his grin - gives me goosebumps whenever I perceive it. Blurrrr.....

Liverpool Continues It's Triumphant Feat.... Again.

It was worthwhile waking up at 2.30 in the morning and stayed up till 4.45 am. And there's no other cause that could make me burn the midnight oil but, the football club I've always laid my faith on. Nope, not even academics can kick my butt off my comfy bed. Hehe... Steven Gerrard's double goals led LIVERPOOL to bag in 3 full points to kick start the UEFA Champions League, Group Stage. I'm particularly jubilant, not only because the football team I've fancied for 3 years has won convincingly, but also because they showed some promising sign that they can actually win both the Champions League and also the Premier League title. Their attack has been ruthless and sharp, defence has been rock solid, midfield has been productive. I mean, what else can you ask for?

One blemish though - the rotation policy. Don't know what the heck it is? Well, it refers to the strategy which different players feature in the starting line-up in different matches. Rafael Benitez (Liverpool's manager) has always been renowned for doing just that. Unfortunately, if he keeps on rotating the players, the players won't gel together. That explains the, at times sporadic performances from the team. It's been frustrating for approximately 2 seasons now. Hasn't he learnt his lesson? Nope, I don't think so. Besides his hallmark rotation policy, he is also notorious for being stubborn. He doesn't listen to others. God!!! So, if the club owners or the administration board of Liverpool FC are reading this, here's one piece of advice for you guys - SACK THE MANAGER!!! That's if you want to win those lucrative and ever-elusive titles.


My Fav Player - Steven Gerrard. Never mind the blondie behind him. Guys, I present you the entire family of Liverpudians. Oops, I'm not in it!

Added New Stuffs

Hey guys, check out the new gadgets I added just now! I installed the "My Favourite Song" column. Despite it showing 4 videos, all of them contain the same song. So, just click one of them and there you go. Besides, there is also a video bar right at the bottom of this page. They're all videos featuring Michael Phelps. Again, there are 4 of them. Due to some technical incapacity, I couldn't streamline them into one. The one video I intend to recommend to you guys is the one situated fourth from your left (the last one lah). That's his opening on Saturday Night Live. Don't like him, don't bother to even click on it. And last but certainly not least, if you want to get yourself updated on sports around the world as you are reading this blog, make sure to look out for the ESPN corner. Enjoy them and good night.

Attention, Everybody!

Here's an announcement! Listen! I'm changing my pet's name. Well, not really. But the spelling of his name has changed. Instead of 'Fey', his brand new name is 'Fye'. Nevertheless, it is still being pronounced as 'Fey'. So, pls spell his name precisely from now onwards. Don't say I didn't warn you!

A Lazy Sunday

I contemplated tons of things to do the day before today. But, they all seem elusive now. Typing this post at 6pm, I guess, could just tell that it's too late to accomplish them all by today. So, I gave up (contradictiong Michael Phelps' cliche, "Never Give Up").
I'm feeling really guilty now. I have to admit that I'm definitely not the best pet owner you would ever meet. Lately I've been neglecting Fey. Nowadays, I stay back at college until 5 pm albeit no classes are being conducted until that late. I don't reach home until 6 pm, to the least. So, I would usually just dump my bag aside, get myself changed into some shabby clothes and feed him right away. Whenever I look at him, I have a vehement desire to lift him out of his golden cage and play with him. Nevertheless, I just couldn't manage to do it. My arms and legs just didn't have the strength and might anymore after all the energy I've poured in the college (sounds like giving excuses, huh?). I guess, I can't defy the odds anymore, huh? Salute you, mum. You are right; I am LAZY. Hey, mums are always right, huh? Really?
Stress, now has started to get into my head (sounds familiar?). Yeah, everybody gets that, knowing the examination is just right around the corner. Whenever I hear the word A-Levels, my heart pounds faster, I stammer and my hands tremble. I might just be exaggerating. But, no doubt, I could feel that STRESS.
Anyway, a mooncake festival always comes to the rescue. Couldn't celebrate last year, due to the passing away of my grandma, I'm determined to celebrate it in TEH family style this year. Can't wait for tonight's tantalizing programmes. We are having barbecue tonight plus the ultimate limelight, the lantern parade at home. This is going to be a huge bash, considering the number of people we have invited (they are all my relatives). So, let's just hope that my mother will not scream, "SUE PENG!!!" to clean up the aftermath mess. YUCKS!!!

My Sunshine




Hi, at last! Found a way to upload these pictures. Allow me to introduce you to this sweet babe; Fey is his name. And owh, isn't he cute?

My SuperDad

I'm very proud to be the daughter of my dad. Not only because he is such an awesome father, pouring undivided love and tender to my bro n me; but also b'coz he is a sweet husband to my mother. I mean, when n where can u see a man with a white-collar status do cooking, feeding the dogs, cleaning n begging his children to take good care of his wife when his dear missus is ill? (Oops... does this show that we do not make good children? I leave it for you to decide) He has been constantly on the phone with his kids to ask how's she doing. All these pretty much have taught me a very important lesson. Being a true man, not only requires all the testosterone parade such as 6-pax, explosive muscles, being cool, or even being fiery at all times; these do not make up a man, indeed. I reckon that a true man has to unfailingly be able to protect the people around him (of course, that includes his beloved wife and kids). He must know how to be as cold as an ice cube on the outside and at the same time be as warm as a radiant sun in the inside. The warmth would appear n overwhelm the coldness when the nature needs him. N sometimes he would display his coldness to lead the family.
Now, that's what I call a man. Those who do not qualify, well, too bad. It just shows that u r still a boy. A young one, indeed.

A Blissful Day

Today, well, it's not bad at all. I managed to study. Managed to stick to my plan. Almost. (I know... u would probably say "get a life!") What else can I do? My life revolves around it. In fact, my life depends on it.
My rabbit's (Fey) ears are now have started to flop. Relieved seeing that. Hmm... RM 80 worth while after all.
Yay!!! My father agreed to bring us all to watch "The Dark Knight". Finally!!! Gotta watch Heath Ledger. This is his last piece of work. Gotta pay my last respect to him.
Wonder when I'm able to compose again.

One Of Those Days

Lately, I've just browsed through my diary, and guess what? I found an interesting piece of thing I wrote down. And there was a surge of intention to share it you guys. Here it is:

SORRY FOR THE TEARS
When her tears rolled down her smooth cheeks, I said to myself, oh no, I've screwed up ... again. Why am I so foolish enough to activate her tear glands? Nevertheless, if I did not witness that with my own pair of eyes, I really have no idea that I am not the only one in my class who is in agony and despair. In fact, there are several people who are even worse. Once I received my Bio papers, I shut my eyes and said, oh no. At that moment I just hope that the papers will vanish once I reopen my eyes but no luck, the papers are still lying down proudly on my desk. When I unfolded my papers, it proves that my instincts before this have never been that precise before because I hit a bulls-eye this time. I got a very, very below-par mark. I was quite disappointed and wandered around asking others how they fared to see where I stand in the pecking order. The following incident proved that luck has never been on my side ... once again. I went to S T, doing something which little did I know that I will regret for a very long time if not for a life time. She was explaining to me why she got awarded such a low mark. While she was fretting over her mistakes, she couldn’t restrict her tears anymore. And the thing that made me feel like I am a murderer was, she actually apologized for her tears. I was clueless of what to do. I just kept silent and I can only spit this out here.
I reckon that we are all like a bunch of rats. We tussle and struggle just to achieve what is being called as a passport for our future. If we do not do well in our SPM or in any other major examinations, we basically would not have a future. The problem is that, after knowing that the reality always judges us based on a piece of paper which has a few letters on it, we try our very best or even the most impossible to study, we still receive a word at the end of the day – DISAPPOINMENT. Why, do we always get that as a result instead of bright smiles? Why,
do we always need to bare with teachers' frustrations? Why, do we always need to stand our parents rigid looks? Why, do we always need to assume that we did not work hard enough and have that stereotype that we need to try harder, need to put in more effort, need to pour in more sweat, need to burn more midnight oils, need to sacrifice more blood in order to achieve the so-called "flying colours" in our lives? Sometimes, hard work would just never be justified in our results. There are certain people who will achieve good results even though they did not try as hard as we did. Or, they achieve the same result as us but their years of effort is not as much as our one-day drainage. Sometimes, I really do wonder if the God has eyes or does He practice justice. So, instead of dwelling on these questions, I'll just harbour a glimmer of hope that He will sprinkle an tiny bit of luck and bless during the course of SPM. Hoping that he will spare us little bit of mercy and justify all the hard work and tears that we have been sucked of, on all of us especially S T, J, and S M, myself and of course, the people who sacrificed scarcely for this paper chase.

Ai Yai Yai

Ever wonder why life is that fascinating? Well, it's simply because we often meet unexpected events. Circumstances which will catch you off guard. My life is loaded with just those. Take a look for an instance from my family affairs - After so many years and decades, little do I know that I'm pretty oblivious about my family members. Not until this very one fine day, my parents, my bro and last but not least, me, sat down in a table. Voracious about food, suddenly, my dad broke into my fantasy of fried 'sotong' and sweet and sour pork. Hmm... yummy! But then, he uttered something which caught my attention despite the boisterous clatters of the culinary tools. He said something about my aunt and my uncle were on the verge of a DIVORCE!!! Oh yeah, that was exactly my response. But, nope. We haven't reached the apex of the story yet, no. Now, this part is the interesting one. Listen attentively. My aunt hired a private investigator to spy on her hubby. I had always thought private investigators only exist in TVB dramas, not in reality. What? Don't the private investigators have anything else better to do? Or rather, if you want to be an investigator, be a police officer. To the least, you can serve the public than destructing others' happiness. To all the private investigators who are reading this, well, the only thing I can say is commisseration for you. And wish you to receive a lighter punishment when karma gets you. Fine, private investigators are so not going to steal my limelight. Back to my story, then my aunt slammed all the proofs (those usual things that you watch on tele - photos of him with a girl who has lesser white hair than him, phone conversation records of him saying "I love you" to the woman and etc. Many other things but I'm simply lazy to spit everything out) on the dinner table and asked him to choose either the bitch, who will get more white hairs than him.... one day, or her, the woman who has pledged her allegiance to him for goodness sake an umpteenth years, established a healthy and happy family and makes soups he can't live without. On that very night as well, she took her two kids ( who are of course, my cousins) to a hotel and stayed there for a night. And of course, panicked for losing a family, he finally left that old popo-to-be and sticked to his status quo (a supposedly good and responsible husband and father).
I think in the end, what amazed me the most is the grittiness one has to safeguard their loved ones or something that means a lot to one. I reckon this is the quality that all of us have (if you think you don't have, perhaps you'll have it at some stage of your life) to defy the odds. I mean, my uncle ditched a beautiful lady because he knows, the ones whom he truly cherish is his family (blood is thicker than water). And that's why life cannot be sketched on papers alone and foresee it to be borne out in precision to that. That's how fascinating life is, rich in unconceivables. And for your information, my uncle and aunty are currently living happily ever after with their kids. Though, at times they'll have a mild debate over who is supposed to wash the plates and bowls.

HOORAY!!!

Wow... possessing things which is completely yours, is the greatest thing that could ever happen to me. Agree? Well, I am never an avaricious girl, but having 100% control of it is really fun. At the same time feeling guilty though. Being an elder sister of somebody is never easy. You must set an example for him/her to look up for, in a nutshell, being a role model. Therefore, you must look and act like a noble, magnanimous, generous, kind.... person. Tough huh? Well, besides blaming your mother for giving birth to you first, I can't think of any other better excuse to berate at.

Everyday is a new day

Hmm, today was pretty ordinary. However, I love to discover the extraordinaries from an ordinary day. I observe people all the time - from the bus to the college, from the corridors to the pathway. And that's basically how I could find something different from almost everything that pops up in my life. I don't like to talk a lot. But, once I found a common channel that I could relate with others, I'll talk non-stop. Despite this, I still prefer not to talk simply because I love to listen. I don't know why, but I always reckon that others' conversations are juicier than mine - extra flesh, juice, sauce, spicy, salt, and sweet. Erm... how come it sounds more like food than words........
