In the jungle the mighty jungle......I sleep tonight

Not going back this weekend.Loads of Assignments + Projects + Meetings to attend to...and of course because I've got Artificial Intelligence Method class first thing tomorrow morning. Glad that I had a good dinner away from cafeteria.I swear the food now taste the same to me.Try having almost the same thing for lunch and dinner almost twice a day....you do that 1 week and i bet you'll feel the same.

Manage to find some wonderful Stefanie Sun stuff on a Chinese You-Tube looking page but of course, its in Chinese and I've got some problems moving around.Downloaded the software that supposingly claim is able to download the video but somehow, i can't find the button to get it to work. It's either my Chinese sucks or the program is a con. Most probably both LOL!

Don't think I'll be blogging much for the next few weeks unless i get something real interesting to write about.I miss everyone to bits back in PJ. Wonder how was Jamie's trip to HK. I do hope D manage to buy the mag with Stefanie in the cover i wanted from Singapore and yes, he really bought it :) perhaps that will keep me sane through the next 2 weeks of stuck in the middle of the jungle campus life.Till then, enjoy the clip below :)


Stefanie Sun's new Song Against The Light MTV. Enjoy!

Finally Found It!

Stefanie Sun & SHE during the SHE Singapore Concert!

where did my weekend go?

My time spent at home is getting lesser and lesser.On average i spend less than 48hours a month at home.thats because I've got annoying 9am Artificial Intelligence Method class to attend on selected Saturday mornings....so it sorta leave me with 2 options. 1) catch the 4.30pm bus and go through a ppl pack 2 hour journey switching from train to train on a Saturday evening for a less than 24hours duration stay at home or 2) stay on campus and forget the idea of going home (through traffic and all) for the weekends while imagining whats playing on TV. Sad isn't it.....but then thats a small price to pay for trying to graduate with a degree right? yeah....i gripe alot lately..but the only thing i can do is blog.

The only consolation i got was that i packed my stuff and went home on Thursday night last week so that i could balance my life and spend more time at home.I guess I'm kinda lucky to be home on Thursday night coz it rained the heaviest I've seen in months.My mom came back all drenched and i took video's from my house which show how heavy the rain was and the strong winds.....but then, you'll have to wait awhile before i upload it :P

As usual my weekends now consists of the most important stocking up shopping trip every week i get back home.It's either Giant or Tesco and I'll be buying lotsa instant noodles,milks and biscuits.the new addition now is yogurt...by now i guess if you've noticed me getting rounder...you know where and what made me the way i am now.the answer is DAIRY PRODUCTS! i guess long after puberty hits, every dairy content you take in will somehow not digest any more.we cant grow vertical anymore, so it becomes horizontal lor......what to do, cafeteria food sucks.

My trips to Tesco has been getting more and more interesting.Ok...i guess i try to make it interesting la.Besides looking at what ppl buy in their shopping cart, i also enjoy looking at the stuff they have for offer.....kinda starting to be like an auntie liao.Bargain hunting is fun.I'll end my post here with some interesting photo's.

Traffic Light Peppers (BTW i hate their smell....wont eat them)

Yeah..no kidding the real Japanese Tofu in a tetra pack!

You could cut it out and it'll be in a piece cool!

....and all these years my mom made me think this was Japanese Tofu.Its called Egg Tofu.

This is chicken cube made from real chicken but with plenty of MSG.

This is chicken cube made from synthetic chicken flavor but with no MSG.

So it's really up to you....you wanna die eating chicken cubes made of Synthetic Chicken with no MSG or chicken cubes made of real Chicken but with plenty of MSG....you make the choice.

AGAINST THE LIGHT

My Msn nick started a ruckus during the holidays when my roomies thought i found someone and were happy for me only to find out after the holidays when i got back that it was none other than Stefanie's new album slogan.LOL! I'm still wondering what made them think that way.....is it because I wrote it in Chinese? Don't think so right? This is what i wrote:

2007年的这一道光，我逆着光，即使痛得刺眼...却看见了希望，看见了爱我的人，看见了我爱的人...我愿意去相信，我会永不放弃.

Translation: This trail of light in 2007, I go against the light even though how much it hurts the eye....I see hope, i see the ppl who love me, I see the people I love.....I'm willing to believe, I will never give up.

Its so.....motivating.I don't feel that it is any declaration of love or announcement of love found in it at all.Its so filled with 希望. Well....now that the air is cleared and the disappointment is over, everything have gone back to normal.Don't worry, If i really find one, I'd definitely tell u all....REALLY!*with big big eyes*

I guess Stefanie's song have never failed to touch my heart.She's the only person in this world who successfully make me take out RM150 to buy her album...and still feel its worth every single cent i spent. I guess if she would sing a whole album in English, I'd buy it even if it costs RM100 for 10 songs...she sings great in English! *grins*I just cant wait to buy her new album 逆光 Against the Light which is suppose to come out on the 21st of march 2007....unfortunately I'll be stuck on campus till the 30th.Just hope when i get back I'd still be able to get her album...hopefully the Taiwan version :) After going through so much trouble securing her previous album(had to ask ppl to go singapore to look for it) I'd really keep my fingers crossed that I'd be able to get it here.But in the meantime i can be happy for a while that i got to download her new song(which is a radio recording courtesy of some really nice fan club member ) and listen to it 24/7 till i get my hands on the album.My roomies(new converts...LOL!) loves the song too....HURRAY!

AGAINST THE LIGHT 逆光
--------------------------------
也许我一直害怕有答案
也许爱静静在风里打转
离开释怀很短暂又重来
有时候自问自答

我不要困难把我们集散
我责备自己那么不勇敢
遗憾没有到达 拥抱过还是害怕
用力推开你我依然留下

有一曙光 那瞬间 是什么痛得刺眼
你的视线 是谅解 为什么舍不得熄灭
我逆着光却看见
那是泪光 那力量 我不想再去抵挡
面对希望 逆着光 感觉爱存在的地方
一直就在我身旁

我不要困难把我们集散
我责备自己那么不勇敢
遗憾没有到达 拥抱过还是害怕
用力推开你我依然留下

有一曙光 那瞬间 是什么痛得刺眼
你的视线 是谅解 为什么舍不得熄灭
我逆着光却看见
那是泪光 那力量 我不想再去抵挡
面对希望 逆着光 感觉爱存在的地方
一直就在我身旁

我以为我对后退 反复证明
这份爱有多不对
背对着你如此漆黑 忍住眼泪
睁开眼 打开窗 才发现你就是光芒

有一曙光 那瞬间 是什么痛得刺眼
你的视线 是谅解 为什么舍不得熄灭
我逆着光却看见 yeah~eh~eh
那是泪光 那力量 我不想再去抵挡
面对希望 逆着光 感觉爱存在的地方
一直就在我身旁

Last day of the month..........

Do people who were born on the 29th February celebrate their birthdays on the 28th February or 1st March. I've always wondered about that. But then it doesn't matter la, maybe they can celebrate on both days also.

Today was a busy day, woke up to do my sequential diagram, met with my supervisor for our group project, met with the tech guy in our university to discuss about the possibility of us getting a space to host our files(which we got in the end) and Went to watch the mischievous Lion Dance in our University, then back to my room to do my work.I'm glad that my flu is better....way better than expected, so I'm on the road to recovery.But workload is now starting to pour in.

I'm now blogging in tiscra1 (the comp lab) ,connection in the room sucks and aircond here is way better than the stale air.Lots of people around here, its way more than the amount of ppl here during examination period.Mostly friendster, youTube and messaging here.

Wont be able to go back this weekend , but i hope i'll be well enough to do some sports.I'm starting to get rounder.....and thats not a good thing.I guess i'll miss the TV and the internet connection the most.

WanTon producing CNY.

Don’t you just hate it when Chinese New Year is not over yet(at least the holiday mood isn’t) but you’ve got sick and yet have to drag yourself to classes no matter how much u hate it? Nothing beats having a WanTon factory(FLU driven nose) which packs about one pack of tissue paper an hour. I’ve even gone to the point of using toilet rolls, coz its more economical and at least its tender to my poor nose and the WanTon doesn’t burst that easily(go figure). At least i know i’m still okay since i’ve still got my sense of humor intact.

CNY had been fun. Did many crazy stuff, laughed alot, ate alot, weather also hot....TV sucked but it was a good break from campus. I was telling my dad that ppl balik kampung during CNY but i go back town, when ppl go back town after CNY , I balik Kampung Semenyih......*sigh* thats realityla....but i wont be enjoying also if i'm at home now, even the best food taste bland with FLU.

If you’ve been wondering y i haven’t been blogging for quite sometime now, coz i’ve been lazy and i’m actually trying to get a new page up but its still in its experimental stages. Not sure when will it be done but hopefully with the little bit time i can find here and there, i should be able to finish it in a month or two.In the mean time i’ll be busy with my projects and assignments, if the connection here is Okay, you’ll see me blogging more often.

So to everyone out there, a HAPPY BELATED CNY!!

To a better , brighter 2007!

Had a fun night last night.I would say the people you're with will determine how much fun you get. No bottles were uncorked last night.....perhaps this is the first celebration we had without any alcoholic beverages. This is a good start to the new year i figure, because i think i drink too much already. Besides, I should be drinking tonight anyway ;)

Going to the curve wasn't a problem at all, no jam, ample parking spaces fewer than normal people walking around. Perhaps its because we were there as early as 6pm. Walked around looking at stuff and let SR get some of her (ahem) "Stuff" done.By 7.30pm, the boys were still not there yet, so we went to take our reserved seats at Kenny Rogers and waited for them to arrive before eating dinner.After that we sat and chatted awhile before going into the cineplex for the movie.

The movie was awesome. Night at the museum was boring at first but it got interesting with its wide cast list and great dialogs. Who would have thought that a T-rex was as tame as a puppy? Oh...and the dumb dumb love gum gum thing was rather cute.Love the part where Ben Stiller was shouting in "his own made up" HUN at Attila the Hun and the facial expression of a very confused Attila the Hun was priceless. Somehow, the Hun language sounded kinda Malay to me...weird.

Just as we finished our movie, we made our way to the road outside looking for the best place to see the fireworks. We made up our mind to stay under the connecting bridge between Ikano and Curve coz we would be able to see both sides of the empty space if it was to shoot at either side of the sky. We busied ourselves with the digital camera,*wink* as always and waited for the time the pyrotechnic starts.

It was a wonderful display of colors on the sky. While people where enjoying the fireworks, (thank god for the invention of digital cameras) we attempted our very own group photo with the fireworks behind which was greeted with stares from other visitors but it still turned out great.I recorded a portion of the fireworks on my very lag and blur camera phone and for every fireworks that was shot into the sky, i cannot help but imagine my university fees being burned cause The Curve and University Of Nottingham are both under the same company.Loved the spiral fireworks the most......it looked great.

After watching the whole thing, we hugged each other and wished Happy New Year among ourselves and took more pictures.We jumped into our respective cars only to start the new year with a massive jam in front of Tesco. We officially moved 10 meters in 1 hour.The rest of the time we were stuck either at the parking area or at traffic light.It usually took 5 minutes to get all the way to the LDP,yesterday we took 2 hours to get there.Mr.min was lucky that they parked at the edge of the road so they got out to Island Cafe in ss2 in 10 minutes.At that time our car and J's car was still in Tesco coming out of the car park. After 2 drinks later, they called us only to find out we were still outside Tesco.So they went to the cyber cafe while waiting for us.

Only later on did we know that Mr.min and KR was reserving 8 seats for us while there was a long queue outside......pity them la...no wonder they felt bad and went to the cyber cafe instead of taking up space.When we arrived 2 hours later, the place was still pack but we still found a table. By then all of us were half asleep and trying hard to stay awake, but when the camera is out again, everyone was awake again.Took more pictures and when it was close to 4am, we bade farewell to ZY who was to board the 8am flight back to China and went our respective ways home.

In the car when heading back home, we talked about what has been in 2006 and what we expect in 2007.I'm very happy that we have all grown closer with each other.Now we will miss each other when we don't meet at least once a week.I'll be back to Semenyih on Tuesday after my Cousins wedding Dinner.So it'll be 2 and a half weeks before i'll be back in PJ again.

The beautiful spiral firework display.....

....and of course the Jam that comes with it.

D364 of Y2K6

Time flies....really, i mean it. It was just like yesterday we were all playing foam at Sunway Pyramid waiting for the countdown to 2006. Its been 364 days and I can smell the new year coming already. But then, I'm still the same person I am 364 days ago and still am sane ,lame & sarcastic just as before.

Overall this year had been an OK & fun year. Started the year with a bottle of beer in hand and loads of foam all over.Turned 22 gracefully with a nice,quiet and sweet(thanks ppl) birthday celebration. Went through IELTS not knowing what to expect(and getting an overall 7.0 for it).Watched and got YZ's signature again when she performed at Lowyat.Missed her concert in Genting because of exams. Successfully gotten my life back together and escaped graduated from hell college with an advance diploma in tow.

The few happier things are being able to fulfill one of my(cant really remember which years) new year resolution of learning extremely basic Japanese.Proving to everyone my worth by getting into Nottingham University Malaysia(2006's new year resolution fulfilled) and of course gaining a whole bunch of lifelong friends from university and experiencing quality alone time without my mom nagging in the background while living on campus. Not forgetting my new laptop that is about the cost of a healthy human liver from the black market in India. Of course the newest would be the marriage of my cousin and her husband after 5 years together.

I don't think I'll be setting any new year resolution this year.I just wish that my friendship with all my different groups of friends will stay on forever and try to do my best in everything i attempt successfully :) To good health, hopes and dreams.......May year 2007 be a year to remember, just as much as 2006 will be!

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2007!!

Shocker...

Just got home after a very event filled day with only 4 hours of sleep. Since ZY came back to malaysia for holidays, we(me, SR, W2 , Mr.min and KR which join later) decided to have a small gathering.So we went for A K session at Neway 1U , watched Love wreck in cineleasure and then had dinner at Only Mee in 1U.

The biggest surprise of the day was SR's new car that she kept as a secret from everyone for a month. Her dad(without everyone not knowing including her mom) got her a new red coloured SUZUKI SWIFT for her 22nd birthday. It came as a big surprise as it was droved right into her porch with a bow on it and the salesman just passed the keys to her wishing her happy birthday. The funny thing was her mom was actually wondering which rich guy actually went through the trouble to get her a new car for her birthday not knowing it was her husbands idea.....hmn....SR , i think auntie knows alot also leh...better watch out :P

Gosh...the guys were way more surprised than we were.When asked to point the car in the car park, playfully Mr.min pointed at the SWIFT thinking it was definitely way out of the budget.....when she nodded her head i saw that shock look on their faces.I & W2 was shown the keys earlier,with the big "S" on it and the red key chain, i knew it had to be a swift, so nothing is shocking anymore.Especially we know how much her dad loves her.

Next shocking news was about ZY's 3 months relationship with his GF in China.Very interesting story indeed.Wont be typing the whole thing out, but its just as good as a scene in a Taiwan drama.Haiyo....even SR wanna take up lessons from his GF. Brave-nya, SR if u're reading this, dont learn lor....i think u super brave liao...with or without alchohol...hehehe.

Have our whole plan for New Years Eve sorted.So it'll be Food, Movie and Fireworks.We tried booking more posh placs for dinner but it would be 70++ for buffet dinner which isn't our plan.so we booking a place in of all places Kenny Rogers in The Curve.We actually playfully just find out if we could book to makan on New years eve anot and they actually can leh...first time i hear fast food outlet can book.But i think if we booked a table(not a place like for birthday or stuff) at KFC or Mc'D's would have been more shocking :)

Drink , drank......now moving on.

Finally,I'm awake from all the drinking at w2's house on Christmas eve till Christmas morning.Its the 10th anniversary of our friendship coz we were there exactly 10years ago on mid-autumn fest when we all still fit in our primary school uniforms.One hell of a crazy night.....couldn't say it was happenin' but it was definitely fun. Our sleepover was really a sleepover to some (you know who you are) but the rest of us were way hyper. I cant even remember how much i drank, but all in all after waking up in the morning and checking out the box, we finished 9 bottles out of a dozen red wines we bought.If not mistaken, there wasn't many who were really drinking either....creepy!

We were at first worried how come our turn out was so poor(W2 organised it) compared to W2's sisters friends, but in the end when all her sisters friends left, then only the real party started.We ate roast lamb and drank to a few awkward discussion of one of W2's sisters friends gender(erm....we later found out it was a he) .We exchanged gifts we got for the person we draw represented by numbers on the spot and in the end, my gift went to ZL( i bought a cup and a tiny soft toy coz i really dunno what to get for a person who might be a girl or a guy) and I got SR's wonderful and creative present.She actually printed her name and the date on a pillow.....way cool! I'll upload it when i take a pic of it.Even the packaging was handmade.Gosh...i think she's in the wrong line of workleh.....

After that everything went hyper with the games and also drinks that came along. We even got SR and W2 to kiss each other(AGAIN) with pictures and videos to proof it.It gets crazy with a few drinks, theres always interesting and crazy stuff happening when SR drinks ;) From then the party got more members.What better way to put it other than Ming's words when she woke up in the morning :

"Eh, how come got another 3 guys on the mattress one?"

Well, somehow in the middle of the night,when we were all drinking (and you now know "who" was sleeping) , J called up and then E's ex-BF ZY and friend KR tagged along and before we know it we (ok, only 3 of us) of awake ppl were driving down the hill from W2's house in the middle of the night on a lamp-less road to lead them all up to the house again. We did that twice and once we even bought chips from the petrol station glass counter.The attendant refused to open the door, so the only thing we could do was to name the items and he would pass it through the small hole in the glass.Kinda funny, its been years since the last time we did something like that.

We continued with our games and all the drinking and by almost 5 am I was already bluring big time.Thanks to the half glass punishment(after not sure how many glasses already), i was floaty. Even the next punishment the kind guys had to finish it for me.Last thing i know was i made my way to the toilet,puked some stuff out and headed back to W2's bed and fell asleep on that spot till 10am in the morning.I even asked where W2 had slept the night before not knowing she had been sleeping next to me the whole night.

I understand how 4 girls can pack into w2's king size but i really have to salute the guys for sleeping on the queen size bed on the floor.How could they squeeze 4 real huge guys is still a mystery as i woke up too late to have a look myself.Mr.min would already take up about half the bed.But i got a not really clear snap shot of 3 guys on the bed which i'll upload later is here below.


At about 11+a.m we got everyone off the beds,those working later to the toilet and the rest of us pack our stuff before heading home with sore heads and tired faces.We girls and ZL jumped into Mr.min's car and the rest in their respective cars and headed back out to PJ after having our noisy party in one of the highest and quietest place I've been to within town. Wait till we start partying in W2's new apartment in K.Damansara thats where its gonna be louder & crazier.

With the partying over, its time i got on to studying. So theres only one more occasion to celebrate before my exams.I'm just way relieved i got my clothes for the wedding dinner already, nothing grand coz i dont think i look good in anything other than jeans but at least i got a skirt my mom liked.I guess thats all that matters for me.
