pack pack pack.. i need more boxes and tape..

Took a bus down to spore on thurs.. left home at 5.40am for Eunice and esther’s place.. their father fetched me to bangsar, the place where we boarded the bus.. we reached there ard 6.40am.. which is way to early for the 7.30am bus tt we were supposed to take.. so we sat down at the mamak stall nearby for ‘breakfast’.. their brother, Joshua, went along with us.. he’s also gg to nus with his twin sisters. So 3 of them gonna be in the same uni..

Reached sg ard 12.30pm.. had lunch then went to lucky plaza to look for dwee.. we went shopping! Last minute shopping for great Singapore sale.. wheee.. bought a lot of stuff.. feel so guilty.. went to my aunt’s office at beach rd to collect my letters.. got my matriculation package.. met eunice for dinner.. cindy joined us for a while..

Later that night we went back to our room at lucky plaza.. cindy stayed with her mum 2 floors above us but we asked her to come to our room.. gave cindy her belated bday present.. then we were trying to make friendship band.. dunno whether dwee managed to complete hers or not.. hahha.. we were also painting our nails.. we miss everyone else… alice, vidia and lita.. it used to be 6 of us.. now left with me, cin and lita in sg.. sobz..

The next morning went for my qualifying English test.. it was on global warming and renewable sources of energy.. I’m just hoping tt I can pass the test so I dun need to take English modules.. sigh.. went to sheares after the test to hand up my forms.. and I met teck chiew.. we’re staying at the same block.. at least I know someone.. haha.. dun feel so lost.. and I was looking at the notice board.. they have the pictures of the committee members in the hall.. saw this picture of a guy who looked rather familiar.. when I saw the name I was super shocked.. it was arbishek (ok, I think I spelt it wrongly.. ) he was the Indian scholar fr tj who used to stay in dunman… got to know him through arkanksha.. played bridge together when we were confined after getting caught by mr ang for coming back late.. haha.. and yes, no more curfew in uni.. wheee…
Took the 4.30pm bus back to kl.. yup, tt was the end of my 1.5 days in sg.. reached home at 11pm.. slept early tt night.. was so tired of traveling..

Next day, on sat.. woke up early.. went for the alternative camp organized by BRATs.. departed from UTAR campus in PJ to some farm in negeri sembilan.. the farm was beautiful.. it’s a fruit farm.. and there was a lake in the farm.. we had a lot of activities the whole day.. the facilitators were very fun and nice ppl.. but I felt so over-aged in the camp.. I’m one of the very few participants who’s alr 19 yrs old.. the rest are like 16 yrs old.. most of them still in secondary sch.. I found out tt some facilitators are even younger than me.. there were 2 facilitators who were only 18.. oh well.. the facies (tt’s wat they call the facilitators.. ) are a bunch of interesting ppl.. they were mainly BRATs members.. one of them was a vj for astro’s hits.tv. she hosts quite a lot of local tv shows also.. and she’s pretty.. she also have a column at The Star paper in metro section.. there were few facies who’re working with The Star.. so cool.. oh, one of the facies just graduated fr NUS.. and she was saying, ‘to the girl who’s gg to NUS, good luck to you..’ well, she say tt I’ll understand wat she means when I’m in NUS.. haha.. hope it won’t be as bad as it sounds..

We had a lot of interesting activities throughout the 1.5 days camp.. we had station games.. and we were supposed to travel to our different stations blindfolded.. and imagine walking blindfolded in a group in the farm.. u can hear facies saying, ‘ok, be careful.. there’s a durian tree ahead of u.. so bend down a bit so your head won’t hit the durians..’, ‘there’s a drain in front.. take a bigger step..’ , ‘we’re gg down on a steep slope.. dun fall..’ , ‘dun step on dog shit / chicken shit..’ , ‘dun knock into the rubbish bin next to you’ etc etc..

For dinner, we were supposed to catch our own fishes.. 2 of my grp members went fishing.. another 2 of us had to get stuff to marinate the fish to bbq, find banana leaves to wrap the fish, then the rest of us had to kill, clean, wash, marinate then bbq the fish.. it was nice to have fresh fish for dinner, although our fish ended up being too salty.. haha.. luckily we had other food for dinner.. uncle Andrew, the owner of the farm, prepared lamb chop and chicken wings for us to bbq.. so yummy..

Another activity during the camp was to built a tower with only paper and straws.. we weren’t given any other materials but we were asked to use our imagination.. so our grp came up with quite a brilliant idea.. we had the tallest guy in our grp.. so he was part of our tower. So our aim was just to built a low, but stable tower for him to hold it up.. with only paper and straws, the only thing that came up to my mind was to fold boxes to make the base.. our tower must be ‘earthquake’ proof and must not topple when the ‘wind’ blows.. during judging, the facies went ard every grp’s tower and jump next to the tower.. after jumping, they blow the tower.. every other grp’s tower topple, except for ours.. whee.. so we were the winner for the tower building competition..

The facies formed a network among the participants of the camp. We were each assigned to a ‘mentor’.. and the mentors gave us their e-mails.. we’re supposed to keep in touch with them and to update them abt our whereabouts.. I think it’s good as they bothered to keep in touch with us.. usually after camps everyone will be back to their ordinary lives and forget bout each other.. yup, I guess I’ll drop my mentor a mail sometime next week when I’m settled down in s’pore.. oh, my mentor is an engineer.. haha.. he was trying to psycho ppl into engineering.. haha, I’ll be a future engineer ( I hope) but we’re on different field lar.. he’s a civil engineer.. I’m in chemical engineering.. haha..

I definitely nv regret signing up for the camp.. but it would’ve been better if the camp is longer.. oh wells.. nvm, better than nothing.. I shall upload the pictures tt I took in the camp when I have time.. for the next few days I’ll be busy with packing.. oh no, I have a mini mountain of stuff in my room to pack.. ahh.. will take quite some time for me to sort out my things before putting them into boxes.. hope everything can fit in my dad’s car.. also hope tt I can finish packing by sat..
Tuesday, July 18, 2006

Last whole week was fantastic.. met a lot of ppl, did a lot of stuff.. lets start with last sun, zee, eunice and wanfen came over to my house.. we had pizza, looked at photos tt we took in dunman, took photos, made earrings, chat etc… too bad wanfen had to leave quite early.. left with the 3 of us.. we went to shop for snacks.. then watched few movies on tv.. watched the parent trap, shall we dance and love actually.. and we stayed up to watch world cup finals as well.. but then the piggy Eunice slept right after the match started.. we woke her up during half time to dance paperboy.. haha.. ended up sleeping ard 6am.. we wanted to go to sunway pyramid ard 11am for ice skating.. but woke up ard tt time.. haha.. and zee had to follow her mum home since her mum was at subang area and she didn’t bring her key.. didn’t try ice skating, but Eunice and I went shopping at we watched Tokyo drift.. the movie was damn nice.. too bad the lead actor is not cool enough.. and Eunice went back to sg tt night.. so sad.. only 2 days..

tues and wed, I ‘studied’ with my elder sister.. she’s having her exams tmr.. so I attempted to prepare for my English test on fri.. but a lot of distractions along the way.. well, at least I did do something..

then on fri shiyan asked me to join her uni friends for ice skating.. haha.. sorrie Eunice, didn’t wait for u.. but I’ll definitely skate with u next time u come down to klang again.. okie.. shiyan’s uni friends, sue li and Janice.. they were quite nice ppl… I’ve met sue li 4 times alr.. but not Janice.. and it’s quite nice to hang out with them.. it feels more comfortable hanging out with them than with the convent grp of ppl, those who went for form6.. I spent my bday this year with sue li, shiyan and her 2 other friends k-boxing.. they’re just very nice ppl la..
hmm, bout my ice skating experience.. haha.. quite ‘interesting’.. skated for 4 hrs.. worth that rm13 tt we paid for entrance.. got few eye candies also.. hahha.. I haven’t tried ice skating before this, but it’s kinda similar to roller blading.. just that ice skating is more slippery and easier to lose balance.. my first few rounds I was practically skating at the side of the rink.. holding on to the side.. haha.. slowly, I tried to skate without holding and of course increase in my speed.. everything went quite well.. didn’t fall for the first 3 hrs.. almost fell few times though.. one particular time would be when I was skating next to 2 malay girls who were holding hand.. they were quite near me when this guy skate through us damn fast.. I almost lose my balance.. almost.. but the 2 girls next to me fell together.. I couldn’t help but laugh.. haha.. if they nv hold hands then only one of them will fall.. hahha.. other times when I almost lose balance I’ll just grab on to the person next to me.. dun care whether I know the person or not lar.. save my butt first.. hahaha.. however, u dun tend to be so lucky all the time.. yep, so after 3 hrs of skating, I thought I quite pro alr.. then suddenly, ‘plop’, fell on my butt.. *ouch.. I tried to get up by myself.. but cannot.. then sue li came and help me.. drag her down as well.. hahahah.. both of us were sitting in the middle of the ice skating rink helplessly.. couldn’t get up.. hahaha.. damn paiseh.. and it was damn cold.. the ‘guard’ at the skating rink actually came and help us.. so much for laughing at other ppl, it was my turn to get laughed at.. haha.. not to forget the awful patch on my jeans fr the puddle of cold water that we sat on.. but I’m still proud to say tt I only fell once on my first time of ice skating.. hahahah.. wanna try again.. so fun.. haha..

dwee came to KL on sat! we were supposed to meet at 12pm.. but she messaged me at 10am (when I was still sleeping) to meet her at 11am.. obviously I was late lar.. hahah.. I was supposed to meet her at her hotel, federal hotel.. I’ve been there before, but I dun really know how to get there.. I just know tt it was at bukit bintang area.. but when my mum asked whether I know the place or not, of course I say I know lar.. or not she sure won’t let me go out wan.. haha.. so I thought I could just take monorail fr kl sentral to bukit bintang and try to find my way to the hotel.. I reached kl sentral, after that horrible 1 hr train ride fr klang, just to find out that the stupid monorail broke down.. and I didn’t know how to get to bukit bintang other than monorail.. was so lost.. wanted to take cab.. but I scared kena cheat by cab drivers.. kl cab drivers are kinda scary.. they anyhow charge.. just when I was standing in front of the monorail station, looking so lost, I heard somebody screamed, ‘bukit bintang, bukit bintang..’ it was a bus driver.. so I just went up the bus... my first time taking bus in kl.. hahah.. but then the stupid bus driver stop me at times square.. I was thinking, ‘wat the hell, isn’t times square one stop before bukit bintang.. how eh?’ I anyhow walk towards lowyat and sungai wang (luckily I followed my sister’s friend there before..) and I found a sign which says, ‘federal hotel’.. wheee.. it’s quite scary if u dunno places well in kl..

went shopping with dwee, her sis and her sis’s friend at times square, klcc and petaling street (aka Chinatown).. took a lot of pictures of the twin tower.. petaling street is like any other pasar malam in msia.. just that they sell more pirated vcds/dvds/shoes/bags/clothes etc etc.. and it was damn crowded.. was so tempted to get a pair of sport shoes.. but noooo.. quite broke liao.. hahaha.. I didn’t buy anything fr petaling st… eh wait.. I bought one dvd.. aye.. the fella wanted to sell me one dvd for rm10.. but then after that he offered 8.. I was trying to bargain for 7.. initially he refused.. but then he said, ‘by the time I sell u this for 7 I have to pack up alr lar..’ I didn’t really understand at first.. but when he agreed to sell me for rm7, he immediately pack up his stall.. so I was quite puzzled till I heard his friend talk on the walkie-talkie in Cantonese, ‘where are they now.. reaching alr ar.. okok.. we’re leaving soon.. packing up liao..’ then u can see the other stall keepers dragging their stuff with a big piece of canvas.. apparently the police was raiding the street.. so all these sellers have to keep their illegal stuff.. we also saw another girl’s handphone almost got pick-poketed by a lady.. but she realized it and the lady gave her back the phone and ran away.. msia damn not safe. Sigh..

dwee came and stay over at my place.. felt quite bad.. left her sis at the hotel alone.. we didn’t do much at my place actually.. it’s because we reached home ard 11.30pm.. then by the time we finished bathing, it’s alr time to sleep.. we tried to watch the dvd tt I bought, but then didn’t managed to finish the movie.. shall watch some other time..

went shopping with dwee and my younger sister again today.. we were at sunway pyramid again.. it was my third time this week gg to pyramid.. haha.. first time with Eunice, 2nd time for iceskating then today 3rd time to meet dwee’s sis who went to sunway lagoon.. dwee managed to get her star shaped earrings (she’s been looking for it since march I think.. finally!) and a nail polish after trying on so many different colours on her fingers.. fr pyramid we took a cab to pudu to buy bus ticket for dwee and her sis to go down to s’pore.. then fr pudu we walked back to their hotel.. we found our way to the hotel.. haha.. after resting a while we went to sungai wang to shop again.. really whole day of shopping.. haha.. dwee and her sis left for KL tower and I went home with my sis.. reached home ard 10.30pm.. almost got nagged.. haha.. cause my sis have test tmr.. hoho.. and she didn’t study at all.. but it’s some diagnostic test for PMR.. and she got some forwarded sms to fail the paper so that the real PMR paper will be easier.. haha.. so she dun really care lar.. haha.. and it’s only science and maths paper.. lower sec sc and math so easy wan..

I haven’t uploaded the pictures to my comp.. shall post the pictures online when I upload the pictures to my comp lar.. hehe..

I had a lot of fun the whole week despite the failed trip to kedah.. eddie and hongjin went ahead to stay at kailun’s place.. I think they went to langkawi as well.. sigh.. wat happened to all the girls fr vj ya.. how come only left with me in kl? Nvm lar.. I had fun.. haha.. just that I feel bad cause I promised seetha tt I will go visit her..

Gg down to sg on thurs.. it’ll be a short trip lar.. just for the English test.. coming back the next day..

I was supposed to plan for a trip to pulau perhentian… it was supposed to be a trip for me, eddie, owern, minghui and lipjeen.. got all the info on the package available fr a travel agent and all the stuff.. then yesterday when I was confirming with the rest.. 1st reply fr lipjeen, ‘sorry, I can’t join u all.. I have to work.. can’t take leave…’ then the next sms fr minghui, ‘ah, sorry, I can’t go.. have been busy these days.. moving to my dad’s place..’
Then eddie went and ask whether Jeffrey and ivy wanna join us not.. both of them agreed.. but then the next reply fr owern, ‘I lost money fr bet on world cup.. dun wanna go liao…’ grrr.. so me and eddie came out with a plan.. to visit kailun in kedah.. haha.. it’s a no plan plan.. we’ll just buy a bus ticket to kedah.. then see how things goes when we reach there.. haha.. I dunno whether ivy and Jeffrey still joining us not.. ahh.. so sick of planning things tt always dun work out in the end… whee.. gg kedah.. can go visit seetha… but I dunno where’s her hostel.. haha.. can go find out lar.. dunno how things will turn out but heck lar.. this weekend Eunice coming to klang.. wheee.. I think we’re gg to pyramid to ice skate.. haha.. although I’ve been gg to pyramid so often, I haven’t tried ice skating there.. haha.. we shall go try.. wheee..

Called seetha to chat a while ago.. she’s pretty happy at her new campus.. and she was saying tt her sch a lot of ppl fr klang.. she’s staying with 11 other ppl in an apt.. so 4 in a room.. then she suddenly ask me, u know who’s melinder.. melinder was fr convent.. but then she wasn’t my classmate.. but still.. the world is so small.. cause she’s seetha’s roommate now.. and she was so surprised to find out that seetha knows quee ee as well.. haha.. and su san knows melinder also right?

Last last sat was my younger brother yongjian’s bday.. bought him a yoyo as bday present.. and we were playing with creme.. hehe.. luckily nv get scolded by my mum.. =X


Then tues was my elder sister’s bday.. I made brownies for her.. it was my first time making brownies but everyone said it was nice.. whee.. her friends and I had a surprise party for her at home.. haha.. I sneaked abt 10 of her friends into the house when she was bathing.. they brought a lot of food.. and I love the chocolate fondue that they made.. but there were too much of chocolate for that day.. chocolate fondue and brownies..

on fri night I had a gathering with my secondary sch classmates.. cause most of them got offer for uni in msia.. and they got posted to different states in msia.. jiayong and leekean got posted to sabah.. so far.. even further than Singapore.. then the rest all ard selangor.. some in UM, some UKM, some UPM.. actually I was so clueless bout uni in msia.. I know I dun stand any chance of getting into any local uni and I don’t want to go to any uni in msia. I attended my aunt’s graduation when I was in form1 or form2 and I didn’t liked it at all… more than half of the population in any local uni are malays.. =S and I hate the quota system.. one friend of mine, who got 4 As for STPM got offered a course, 'sistem maklumat' (wat the hell is that anyway??) in dunno which ulu uni.. pinky got offered mechanical engineering (it wasn’t in any of her choice and she didn’t even take physics for STPM) in perlis… I cannot imagine myself studying in ulu places and living in hostels with rules like, ‘only long sleeves and long pants allowed, official uniform = baju kurung..’ ughh..

anyway, bout the gathering.. we had bbq.. and it took us so long to set up the bbq pit.. cause it was a all girls gathering.. and no one really knew how to set up a bbq pit.. haha.. it was great to meet some ppl tt I haven’t met for years.. actually I kinda lost contact with this bunch of ppl.. only keeping in touch with some of them.. and I wasn’t very close to them last time.. and they were talking bout local unis.. most of the conversation in Chinese/hokkien.. I felt kinda out actually.. the worse part is they nv invited those friends who are not-so-cina and those tt I’m more confortable with.. sigh..

saturday morning I went back to my secondary sch for the sch’s annual fun fair.. met up with the not-so-cina grp of friends.. kinda funny tt I met up with two groups of ex-classmates on separate occasions one day after another.. i brought my younger brother along... so i was entertaining him with the games stalls.. bump into a lot of ex-students.. those in my batch and my junior batch.. most of them were at the office collecting their SPM certs. haha.. after 2 yrs.. (which reminds me that i haven't collected my A lvl cert.. ) was forced to buy food fr my younger sister’s class.. bought the sushi tt my sis made.. and heard a lot of ‘Teacher!!’ or ‘Miss Liaw’ from the girls tt I taught beginning of this year.. and I certainly agree with shiyan.. it was great to come back to see the fun fair with home clothes… and really got to walk ard sch cause we used to be so busy helping out at our own stalls last time.. oh, and I met shihchyi.. one of my senior fr interact club.. she’s still so cute and skinny.. everyone used to call her cicak (lizard) because her surname is chak..

at night I was at my aunt’s place.. had a party cause my nephew turned 1 month old yesterday.. haha.. most of my relatives were there.. my father has 11 siblings.. so imagine 11 families… I lost count of the number of cousins I have.. about 50 of them.. and also a new generation of nieces and nephews.. most of them less than 3 yrs old.. so cute… took pictures of some of the kids..

this is the one month old boy..

a picture of me and my niece natalie.

this is my nephew.. he's so cute.. he's 'smiling'.. haha..

my aunt's dogs.. they look so bored..

this is the lily that my sister planted.. thought it was quite nice then took a picture of it.. =)
