home

time for me to go home..finally. have been stucked in kl since the last day of my exam. not too sure when i will be back in kl. most probably in feb next year

plans for the holidays..nothing much. just hope that i can make it to Singapore. will try. wish me good luck :)

results...not very good. sad..but to think about it, how good my results can be when i didnt work as hard as i could during the exam period? and really have to thank god that i dont have to repeat anything. next sem will have to work much harder..should try as hard as i can so that there will not be any regrets since it will be my final sem. WORK HARD FOR GOODNESS'S SAKE

cant think of much to say becos my brain is half asleep already haha..

TAKE CARE...dont think i will be online much anymore becos i cant. there isnt any phoneline at home. do take good care of yourself :) n you can reach me through my hp if you really miss me :p (joking joking) anyway you can always drop by my blog, read my old posts if you dont mind, or just listen to the song i put up here. currently playing is my favourite christmas song, Last Christmas, sang by a japanese guy called Yuji Oda. this song is the theme song of a japanese drama i watched some time ago. quite like this version of Last Christmas

thats all for now. bye :)

waiting

went out yesterday. decided not to stay at home n drove myself crazy by thinking about the results which will be released today. it was raining when i was on my way out and the ktm was delayed due to some technical problems. not a very smooth start but i did enjoy the day :)

watched The Red Kebaya. a movie about how a photographer found out about his past, his childhood. the setting is in Malaysia, some scenes in KL, most in Bukit Bendera. quite a malaysian based movie but the director is an ang moh. a simple sad story but the ending could be considered a happy one i guess. quite a nice movie

i entered the movie theatre quite early n i had nothing much to do. so decided to take a picture of the wall of the movie theatre..


well the real wall looks much nicer than the picture..

anyway i think so far the cinema wall in the movie theatre in Genting is the best. they put up pictures of those very significant movie characters played by those famous movie stars..those popular characters whereby you will be able to tell the character's name when you take one look at the picture. quite a nice way of decorating the cinema wall

bought something yesterday hehe..didnt spend too much on shopping these few weeks in kl. just bought 2 books two weeks ago and a top yesterday. really have to control my spendings. should spend less since i dont earn anything

waiting for my results which will be out in a few hours' time...going to be a long afternoon

movie freak

the number of movies i have watched so far since 10/11..

in cinema: 6
at home on tv: hmm at least 3..last night itself i watched 2, one after another
in my room watching those downloaded by my cousins: 3

rough total: 12 within 3 weeks. just nice, 1 dozen hehee

can really be called a movie freak already..but after i go home i wont be going to the cinema much anymore. leaving the house is not an easy thing..new housing area, no public transport yet, cant go far. n i need permisson to leave the house. never mind...make up when i m back in kl then :p

good luck to those who r starting their finals these few days :) all the best!

lost

these days i blog really often. quite consistently. average one post everyday. but somehow i find that these posts are not as significant and meaningful as those in the past. last time i blog becos i have things to say, i have thoughts that i want to note down. nowadays i tend to find things to talk about on the blog, trying to blog eventhough i dont have much things to say. thats why some of the posts these days seem a bit meaningless i guess..the blog doesnt seem to be my blog anymore

i have a feel that i have lost certain parts of my true self these few weeks. i want to be myself again. talk about things that i really want to talk about. say things that i really feel like saying

blogging shouldnt be a routine. if not it will be boring and there will not be any meaning anymore

next week

This cutie is sitting beside the tv in the living room now. made up of 24 ballons, tied and twisted together by my 2nd cousin. looking at it, i feel as if it is saying, 'hug hug?'..kind of cute :) the balloons can only stay in shape for about 3 days. so decided to take a picture of it before it is gone forever


these 2 dogs are quite lovely too. i guess it is just the way i place them that makes them looking so lovely. actually they are much smaller than the baby, the pictures are not in scale

next week's plan...
monday: out
tuesday: do nothing
wednesday: check results
thurday/ friday: home

now....zzZZ

silent

what have i been doing? hmm...

talk to my laptop. talk to the tv. now i m talking on my blog

the best thing about all these talking is that..i dont have to use my mouth and make a single sound. dont feel like saying anything

but i will respond la if you feel like chatting. why dont you start the talking? switch roles for a while..

anyway hope you have a nice day. take care

stay happy

not much plans for today. so far the day has been pleasant :)

stay happy..things will go smoother for you if you keep your mood good

can finish up more notes also (if you are studying hard now)

and when you are happy, i will be happy too :)

so stay happy! :D

enjoyed

had an enjoyable day. met up with Chai Har. she is one of the nicest seniors, one of the nicest friends i have met in uni. finally found a day whereby she was free to meet up :)

we were supposed to meet around noon. thank god i didnt have to wait too long for the buses. i took 3 buses to go back to Sunway and it took less than 2 hours for me to reach my destination. not too bad. and to me, she is the type of friends whereby i wouldnt mind travelling far or going through all the trouble just to meet up. is worth the trouble

met her in uni first becos she still had things to settle. we went to the monorail lab (oh we have a monorail station in uni but now there is no more monorail service and the place has been monified into a science lab, we call it monorail lab). then the usual lab area. dont know why just felt good to be back to the uni again

after she settled everything, we went to Sunway Pyramid. didnt do anything special. just lunch, movie, window shopping. but it was fun. becos i was doing all these with a good friend. we watched Happy Feet. it is an animation, about penguins which can dance or sing. they were really cute! especially the plump little baby penguins. so cute! :) but the ending was just so so. overall the movie wasnt too bad

saw 2 nice dresses today. one of them is the casual type, for normal outings. RM139 before offer, RM119 after offer. too bad. a bit too ex. the other one is the type for balls or dinner. short, knee-length. white with some pink flowery kind of design. RM199.90. actually the price is quite reasonable. but i m not planning to go for any balls or dinners soon. so no reason for me to buy. if only i m rich..hehehe

wonder when i will meet chai har again, since this year is her final year already. she is someone whom i wont forget becos of all the help and concern she has given me. going to try my best to keep in touch with her :)

sunny. rainy. crazy

these days we have bright sunny mornings in kl..


taken on tuesday morning. the place where i stay now is on the left of the picture. but cant be seen here. clear blue sky...how nice

Sodagreen - Little Love Song (苏打绿 - 小情歌)

i like the background of the music video. the art which is expanding. the piano part of the song is nice

you want to know the meaning of the song?

i translated the lyrics..

The mandarin lyrics
这是一首简单的小情歌
唱着人们心肠的曲折
我想我很快乐
当有你的温热
脚边的空气转了

这是一首简单的小情歌
唱着我们心头的白鸽
我想我很适合
当一个歌颂者
青春在风中飘着

你知道
就算大雨让这座城市颠倒
我会给你怀抱
受不了看见你背影来到
写下我度秒如年难捱的离骚

就算整个世界被寂寞绑票
我也不会奔跑
逃不了最后谁也都苍老
写下我时间和琴声交错的城堡
最后谁也都苍老

The translation
This is a simple little love song
which sings about the sadness of people's heart
I think I am very happy
Whenever I have your warmth
The air around my feet has changed

This is a simple little love song
which sings about the freedom in our heart
I think I am very suitable
To be a singer
Youth is flying in the wind

You know
Eventhough the heavy rain may ruin the whole city
I will still give you a hug
Cant bear to see you walking away from me
So i wrote down the unbearable sorrow

Eventhough the whole world may be kidnapped by loneliness
I wont run away
Cant escape from the fact that eventually everyone will turn old
So i wrote about the castle where time and my piano sound intervene
Eventually everyone will turn old


nowadays my emotion changes like the weather here. sunny in the morning..then the clear blue sky turns darker n darker..eventually thunderstom in the evening. the closer the date of the release of my results and the date for me to go home, the more unstable i will become i guess

i dont want to see the results. i dont want to go home. but i cant run away from the reality

i should keep myself more occupied

shop

went to Mid Valley. window shopping n movie..

initially just wanted to go there, walk around, see things, kill time. on my way there, was telling myself that no movies for today. for once just dont go to the cinema. but after i reached there, the first destination that i went was the cinema...my heart won over my head again. watched The Covenant. it is a thriller. witchcraft practised by guys who were descendants of witch families. mystery. fast pace. rock songs. attractive actors (especially the lead actor. good figure, beautiful eyes, sexy lips. his name: Steven Strait). pretty lead actress (blond, sweet sunny smile. her name: Laura Ramsey). some special scary effects. enjoyed the movie

after the movie..window shopping. didnt have anything particular in mind that i want to buy. didnt meet anything that could catch my attention so much until i would spend my money on it

start to worry about my results.....speechless

to those who are having finals now..Good Luck!! :)
to those who are going to have finals really soon..Jia You!! dont think too much. just keep going :)
to those who are on holidays now..Continue enjoying your life. play hard!

good

today cleaned up everything around me that could be cleaned up. the floor, my table, the extra bed in my room which serves as a table as well or sometimes a sofa (ya i have 2 beds in my room hehe). very clean. very neat. happy :)

another rainy afternoon





really white

quite cool

Justin Timberlake - my love + sexyback



the dance is quite cool

random

wanted to sleep early. but now is 2.27am already n i m still in front of my com. haha..is like dat la when i can online 24 / 7

nothing much to share. just another normal saturday..oh got to know that another friend of mine is attached. feel happy for her

suddenly have a weird thought..how i wish my new sem is starting next week or some time soon. guess i m just too bored

will find some day to get out of the house next week. need to go out n breathe

obstruction

i cant go home today. due to some transport problem back home..i will only be going back in December. 1/12. thats what i plan now

i hate it when obstruction occurs to my plans. since the last day of my finals, i have been thinking about when to go home. when i finally settle the things in kl n want to go home, i cant. delayed again

feel extremely bad. but what can i do? cry? tears cant solve problems. no point

carry on with life today

things change in a blink of an eye

3 new albums which i have just finished downloaded + a movie tonight. what more can i ask for for today? :)

but didnt sleep well last night. was just wondering why there are ppl who are still so childish eventhough they are supposed to be addressed as young 'adults'. or maybe it is just misunderstanding, which actually doesnt seem like it. well i dont know la. i dont know what they are thinking about. it doesnt really matter anymore

yesterday didnt go anywhere. watched a movie at home. watched My Sassy Girl, the korean movie. this is the second time i watch this movie. the first time was few years ago when i was still in singapore for my A levels. in the hostel where i stayed, they used to have movie sessions during saturdays, whereby they would show movies in the dining hall and we could just go n enjoy it for free. i liked those sessions. i would still go n watch eventhough sometimes they showed crappy movies hahaha. anyway My Sassy Girl is one of my favourite movies which i dont mind rewatching. a very funny but yet loving n touching love story. the lead actress Jeon Ji-Hyun 全智贤 has always been my favourite korean actress. like her style. her character. her long straight black hair

this is one of her advertisements which i really like. olympus 2004

(really did manage to find the video at youtube. nice)

a while ago i was still happily thinking about the movie tonight. now i got to know that tomorrow i cant go home. my plans are obstructed again. never mind. i dont want to talk about it now

home

going home on saturday. finally settled the stuff here n i m ready to go

so starting from saturday, you wont see me on msn often anymore. i cant online much after i go home. there is no phoneline at home

not sure when i will be back to kl. i might be back in december..if not then it will be february next year when my new sem starts. this time round the new sem will start on 26/2, one day before my birthday hahaha..new sem at the beginning of the year always starts around my birthday

no solid plans for the holidays. only rough plans which cant be confirmed. will see how things go

quite a good day

you like the new feature on my blog? well you will realise it if you have your speakers on

like the song? i know most of the ppl will tell me: it makes me sleepy..hahaha. i remembered one or two semesters ago, when me n one of my friends were doing our work in the computer lab while listening to the songs that i was playing, the person told me, 'wah dont play this kind of song. it makes me sleepy..' when i was playing another song by Lisa Ono. well it is ok if you dont like it, becos different ppl have different taste, different preferences. i like coffee, but you may not like it and prefer tea instead. i dont expect ppl to like what i like

so..if you like the song...enjoy :)
if you dont like the song...hmm. turn the player off ? hehe

today..went out with my cousin. tagged along with him to explore places. the first place we went was Ikano Power Centre, the shopping complex near The Curve. quite a nice place, with a big Popular bookshop. there is this pet shop there..quite a good one. the shop is quite big with a few sections. they sell quite a variety of pets: snakes, turtles, tortoises, frogs, lizards, dogs, cats, rabbits, rodents, fish. can find Nemo and Dory there too hahaa..the exotic ones like the reptiles are really quite an eye opener. they have turtles which are really big n make me wonder how old they are. enjoyed looking at one of the big turtles nibbling at its vegetables hehe. how cute. the variety of snakes really made my hair standing..yuck. the dogs..well they have quite a few types there, one of them which caught my attention was a golden retriever. a puppy. 7 weeks old. guess how much it cost? RM1688...hahaha. sorry i cant set the puppy free by paying the price. to me the pet shop is a good one becos the animals inside are actually quite active, not like those that i see in other pet shops whereby they are either sleeping or just lying around, not moving. seems that they are well taken care off. i hope so

the second place we went was the Cineleisure next to Ikano Power Centre. They have Cathay Cineplex there. the cinema looks great! but too bad..we didnt catch any movies there. just walked around the complex. it has the potential to develop into a good entertainment place. shall see what it will be like in future

the last place we went was One Utama shopping centre. it is quite a big shopping complex. still didnt finish exploring the place yet. will leave the undiscovered part for another day

bought 2 books today. one is called The Family Way, by Tony Parsons. i have 2 or 3 of his books and his stories mainly revolve around human relationships, family, love. quite nice. i hope the one i bought today will be good too. the other book is called Brave New World, by Aldous Huxley. quite a famous science fiction. i got the chance to read the book during my A levels when my general paper tutor lent me the book but i didnt manage to even start reading it properly, not to say finishing it. hope i will enjoy the story. ya heart was really pain after i bought the two books. books have never been cheap. what to do..i discovered them when i was walking around in MPH. i would rather pay for the books, let my heart feel pain than regret for not buying them after i left the shop

my new books

thats all for today

picture of the day

cousin's graduation

the look of love

a song by Diana Krall



The look of love is in your eyes
A look your smile can't disguise
The look of love is saying so much more than just words could ever say
And what my heart has heard, well it takes my breath away

I can hardly wait to hold you, feel my arms around you
How long I have waited
Waited just to love you, now that I have found you

You've got the
Look of love, it's on your face
A look that time can't erase
Be mine tonight, let this be just the start of so many nights like this
Let's take a lover's vow and then seal it with a kiss

I can hardly wait to hold you, feel my arms around you
How long I have waited
Waited just to love you, now that I have found you
Don't ever go
Don't ever go
I love you so

understood

had my question answered n my doubts cleared. feeling better

it is really time for me to go home. really hope that i can settle the things here fast n go home soon

saw this picture taken by my cousin when he went to China for holidays lately. quite like it

this sleeping beauty lives in one of the zoos in China. so cute.. feel like touching it

dont understand

tell me...what kind of friends are these when they come to you for help n you do try to help one way or another, but they dont ask you along when they have outings?

it hurts when this kind of thing happens. i treat ppl with a true heart n yet i see this kind of thing happens right in front of my eyes

maybe i m just too naive sometimes. maybe i should learn to be more realistic

as time goes by, you can really see who are the ones who really deserve your time, who are the ones who really care about you. thats how i feel

there is this sentence in this famous book called The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint Exupéry, 'you can only see things clearly with your heart, what is essential is invisible to the eye.'
guess it is true. you will only realise what is truely important, how true a person is to you, with your heart. ya loh..your heart never lies one

shouldnt let minor things to spoilt my mood for the holidays. i have other more important things to care about. shouldnt care too much about things that i shouldnt care about

i should love myself more. be happy. stay happy. shouldnt let myself feel unhappy

yesterday. today.

yesterday....
went to my 2nd cousin's graduation ceremony. watched how ppl had their graduation. how proud the parents were looking at their child graduating. how beautiful the flowers received by the graduates were. how is my graduation going to be like? seems close yet still far away..


my 2nd cousin


cousin n his parents


waiting for a photo shoot


during the graduation ceremony. obviously he is the one looking at my direction with a broad smile



today...
movie day. went to Mid Valley to watch movie. initially just wanted to watch one but i reached Mid Valley really early around noon n my friends could only join me in the afternoon around 3pm. didnt have the mood to shop. so went for a movie myself 1st before my friends arrived. watched the second movie after they arrived

the first movie was Death Note. Japanese movie. it was actually a comic based movie. looked like a horror movie but it wasnt. quite a nice one. looking forward to the sequel next year

the second movie was Step Up. holywood movie. a movie about dance. how a punk eventually found the dream of his life through a girl. they could really dance very well

enjoyed both the movies. worth the RM11 i paid for each of them. RM11 for one movie becos today is sunday. weekdays would be rm6. haih..heart kind of pain. watching movies during weekends is like dat

guess i have played too much these 3 days. kind of tired. just feel like going home fast..

bed time. good night

start

finals of the sem ended yesterday. the paper wasnt too bad. anyway everything has ended. just wait for the cold hard truth on 30/11

after the paper, went to One Utama Shopping Centre. had lunch with my uni friends. then i met up with Ee Ling (my A levels-period friend) while my uni friends continued their shopping spree

have long wanted to meet up with Ee Ling since she came back from UK but i was busy. so after finals i thought i should meet up with her before i go home. we went for a movie, The Departed. it was the Holywood version of Infernal Affairs (无间道). strong cast: Jack Nicholson, Leornado di Caprio, Matt Damon. 18SG (means bloody basically). the movie was quite ok. we went for the movie without knowing much about the story line n everything n the starting of the movie was kind of bored. i thought i wasnt going to enjoy it. but i was wrong haha. it was quite a nice one.

after the movie while i was leaving, i realised my uni friends actually went for the same movie too! hahaha. the girls were just sitting in the row in front of me, their seats right in front of mine. guess we entered the cinema at different timing n thats y we didnt realise hehehe. life is really full of coincidence...

Ee Ling left after the movie. she needed to rush off. will catch her again in future :)

after One Utama, i went for a cell group meeting. they were having a birthday celebration for the november babies. (well i m not a christian. but sometimes i do go to the church and the cell group meeting when i feel like going or when my friends ask me to go. just dont mind learning about the bible n meet up with my friends there) so yup..n it was a big day for the cell group. they called the event cell group multiplication, whereby the group separates to form another group becos the number of members has increased. the birthday celebration after the meeting was quite ok. but by that time which was around 10pm plus i was quite dead already haha. didnt sleep much the night b4 n i was out for the whole day. anyway the food was quite ok. n i was quite glad dat the cell group leader was really happy becos i could make it for the night. she was one of the birthday girls of the night. i like it when i know that i manage to make ppl happy. see ppl around me happy makes me happy too


Hooi Yee n Nina

my cute dearie


my sweet dearie


Ee Ling


Kelly the cell group leader n Nina.
well she is more than just a leader..she is my friend :)

last night one of the things i learnt about is 'the nature of love is to give'. true, no? when you interact with ppl in life, you give when you care. you care for ppl too, not just to receive care. how would the ppl whom you care know that you care if you dont show it? human interaction is a two-way thing. it is not a one-way street. if you care, you should give

holidays have started. hope i will have a good one :)

work hard

one last paper tomorrow. really have to work as hard as possible. the paper i had yesterday was quite horrible. couldnt remember what i read. lost free marks. how smart. felt so useless. today really have to focus n make up for the paper yesterday. should hold on to the second chance tight n make the best out of it. STUDY!

have a great day. remember..no matter how hard things are, everything will still be fine in the end.
stay happy :)

* the day turns brighter when my song request on msn was actually answered :) thanks for brightening up my day

waiting for the next phase

today didnt really start off very well though..a minor little bad thing happened. minor...but i m tired of it. so ya loh..guess thats it. quite decided

2 more papers to go. wed n fri. waiting to for this sem to come to an end officially. waiting for the next phase..3-month holidays. the results will be out on 30/11. before the results are released, i want some carefree life. i dont want to think much about anything else. just want to enjoy myself before i go home

time to go

evanescence - call me when you're sober

the hot guy in the music video - oliver goodwill

some truths of the day

the truth is that...today i didnt do very well for the paper. but thank god that one of the past year questions did come out in the essay part. glad that there is still some luck with me

the truth is that...something which i had been thinking about since yesterday proved to be wrong today! not the way i thought. hahaha..what a relief. sometimes our mind do play games with us, especially we are already quite stressed. exam drives ppl crazy? in the past i dont really believe it. but now...hmmm

the truth is that...i didnt realise streamxy had actually recovered until i went to pluck off the phoneline from the house modem n tried to connect it to my laptop to use dial up connection. i plucked off the phoneline while my cousin was half way using streamxy..

'thought i told you streamxy is back just now in the car? DUDE I WAS HALFWAY DOING SOMETHING..' opps..sorry

the truth is that...i m really excited now! hehehe someone helped me downloaded the song i wanted n sent it to me :D so nice..thank you :)

the truth is that...i m happy today eventhough the paper wasnt too good. HAPPY :)

still not very good

well..i think if you have read my blog yesterday you would have read the post which i put up yesterday. somehow today it disappeared into the thin air. didnt delete it. just gone. n last night i couldnt load my own blog page properly. only half of the page appeared n the sidebar was empty. really made me worry for a while..i dont want my blog to disappear. felt better after i found out that actually others still could load the page fully. sigh..is it something wrong with the dial up connection? or something wrong with blogger? i dont know..

yesterday was saying that something went wrong with my digestive system. cant digest food properly. feel bloated and cant defecate properly too. today felt slightly better. hope it will recover soon. it is really not good when you are not feeling well during exam period. was also saying that i have 3 papers next week. n after i finish all my papers i should go home but i dont feel like going home. was quite depressed yesterday. well after last night, just want to say, thanks jia en for the chat. i really felt much better after the chat. n thanks dingying for reading my blog for so many times in a day

i guess i should start preparing for the paper tomorrow. n ya again, dont worry about me. somehow everything will be fine in the end. i really do hope so

care

there are many ways to show care. agree?

how do you normally show your care? talk to ppl you care about often? ask about their well being? try to make them feel better when they dont feel good in any way at all? show them somehow that they are important to you? show them or share with them the good things you have? try to help them one way or another? try to make them happy? try to spend some time with them eventhough you are so busy? so many different ways right..

well then..do you realise when ppl try to show their care to you? do you appreciate what they do? do you know when ppl care about you?

as for me..i do try to care as much as i can for ppl around me, especially those that care a lot about me. do try to appreciate every little thing that ppl do for me. i dont know whether ppl appreciate what i do sometimes. i wonder sometimes whether ppl i care about do care about me too

how much do you care about ppl around you?

photos

a few more photos from yong in canada which i received yesterday :)


those red colour things are red berries, not maple leaves..




i like this set the best :)

beautiful start of the day


middle of nowhere in the sky


so close yet so farway


bed of clouds

hope you like the pictures :)

what a day

actually today started off fine. received a few more photos from canada :) wanted to post them up but couldnt. thanks to the wonderful dial up connection. haih..when will the streamxy work again? i want streamxy. ARGH

later in the evening after i woke up from my nap..had terrible stomachache. VERY TERRIBLE. could really feel the intestine cramping so hard. cold sweat. whole body turned weak. but after dinner no more pain. stomach still feel a bit weird though. must be either becos i mess up my sleeping hours, too much coffee n tea, or the food in the japanese restaurant that i went on tuesday. hope tmr will be fine.

i hope streamxy will recover soon. i plan to post up some old photos taken during my flight to Terengganu, part of the journey to Pulau Redang few weeks ago

for the time being..all i want is to study

thats all for now

nice picture

a photo from yong in canada..

beautiful. isnt it? :)
