Movies2watch

I'm currently doing nothing whatsoever for my 2 weeks holidays and I have several movies I HAVE to watch by the end of the holidays. I don't care. MUST watch. I'm outdated enough in the movie world already.

1. X-Men 3 : The Last Stand
2. The Da Vinci Code
3. Over The Hedge
4. Poseidon
5. Mission Impossible 3

I've watched MI3 some weeks ago but I'm just putting it there cause it's apparently a big hit in the cinemas and the box office worldwide.

C'mon! Searching for movie kaki(s) thx.

Update

My instructor just called. I have another driving lesson tomorrow. YAWN. Already so sick of it. I just want to barely pass the test and get over it. I had enough of my inability to 'feel' the car when it is moving slow or know when to change gears. And to start a car from the traffic light. Too stress. Must...get... over it.

I also really really want to watch a movie! So many nice movies out. 2 weeks holidays summore. Weee~

Nothing else to blog about.
2 weeks holidays just enough to get my thoughts straight.

C'mon Alex. I know you can drive better than that. :(
I hope so.

I see a change in me

Hello world.
I thought about posting this ever since the day first I started blogging and I'm finally doing it now. I will not have as much determination to do this as I don't have the mood to be on a searching frenzy but since I'm free now.. this will probably be just a rough one.. the more detailed one will be for some other time.

Coming back to the topic,
I thought it'll be interesting to note the changes that happened over the years. Yes. In me. :D
Are u excited now?

and of course I'll be taking my best-looking pictures of that time. duh. or some funny ones too.

*warning - picture-filled post*

Well for starters,
Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

there. everyone gets treated to a very cute baby pic of mine. I seriously do NOT remember the year of that photograph.



duno what year. looks older than the baby one so i'm putting it here. so cute~

and then, I grew.

(i don't have a 2001 pic, will try to locate it)

2002. Form 2!:

June
Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

Nov(don't ask)
Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

Dec(hehe)
Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

I realised my face didn't really have a shape.. yea i'm sure it's round and all but it's like I don't really have a feature. I think cartoonist will find it hard to sketch me out cause I looked so messy. -_- I know I wasn't good looking and all but thx for letting me live in denial! weee~ (and don't start the omg alex u were so thin shit, thx)


Now,
2003:

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

How... horrible!
2003 lagi no shape or feature. ><

But somehow, my class pic that year I looked good man! But why those pics didn't agree. :o I get it now.. I look different at different pics! Yes. that's the reason.


2004:(lazy to upload so there's only one)

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

Hm. I liked my glasses.
And I looked as gay as hell.


2005:(also happened to be the most eventful year of my life, positively and negatively)

November/December
Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
With a twin-

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
-and another.

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

Man. I looked sexy.
Major weight gain however, I realised from my previous years.

Finally, this year,
2006:

This is the most recent pic of mine(at least the one I like anyway)

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

Ok. you can start the OMG ALEX YOU ARE SO CUTE I LOVE U comments now.
XD

But seriously,
did I change THAT much?

only time will tell.

A more detailed and less-lazy version will be posted. :/

Still as charming as before,

Nick Lachey - What's Left of Me

Watch my life,
Pass me by,
In the rearview mirror
Pictures frozen in time
Are becoming clearer
I don't wanna waste another day
Stuck in the shadow of my mistakes

Yeah...

[Chorus]
Cause I want you,
And I feel you,
Driving underneath my skin
Like a hunger,
Like a burning,
To find a place ive never been
Now I'm broken,
And I'm faded,
I'm half the man i thought i would be:
But you can have what's left of me

I've been dying inside,
Little by little,
No where to go,
But going out of my mind
In endless circles,
Running from my self until,
You give me a reason for standing still

[Chorus]

It's falling faster,
Barely breathing,
Give me something,
To believe in
Tell me: It's all in my head

Take what's left
Of this man
Make me whole
Once again

[Chorus]

I've been dying inside you see
Im going out of my mind
Out of my mind
I'm just running in circles all the time
Will you take what's left
Will you take what's left
Will you take what's left of me?
Running in circles in my mind
Will you take what's left
Will you take what's left
Will you take what's left of me?

Mid Year

Doing maths in the MPH is just wrong.
It's the Multi Purpose Hall in Taylor's in case you are wondering.
FREAKING COLDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD!
2 hours in a fridge kills. It freezes whatever I use to think. Maths summore! Can you just imagine. Zzz.

People did warn before but I didn't bother. Well I didn't really feel it anyway until the last 10 minutes. My hands were as cold as ice. Seriously. Not exaggerating. I think I could make a hot milo to a chilly one. (thinks of Iceman from X-Men. Gaya!)

2 more days. Tomorrow worst day. Specialist Mathematics followed by IT Studies.
I seriously don't know what I'm gonna do for Specialist Mathematics. On the verge of giving up.. I don't know how am I gonna face it for the rest of the year. Thank god for 2 weeks holidays next week! Considering consulting a counsellor about the problem. :S I thought I had managed to pick myself up in that subject.. but after trying the past year papers for the Mid Year.. Lost all hope again. Zzz.

Thus, gonna concentrate more on IT Studies I guess. At least more hope of scoring.
See how. Very tired now anywayz.

Learnt a new thing today. Never skip questions for college maths! You may think you will have time to go back but nooooooooooooooooo.. you won't. After skipping a particular question, it's like kissing that question goodbye as you won't be seeing it again until it's marked. So I basically skipped some do-able questions and oh wellz. We'll see what happens.

End Update.

My life so far

What happens when it's 4:30am, got no one to talk to online, all sites have been surfed at least 3 times for the past few hours, and revising your work leaves you more frustrated at the end of the day?

You blog.

And so my boredom and un-willingness to sleep started.
My original objective was to revise my work until the early hours of the morning then getting my sleep after that, but I guess I've got to put on hold what I planned to do.

It's not as easy as it seems.

And so I began surfing Friendster randomly in hopes to find something or someone interesting that will occupy me for the next half an hour or so, and what I did came across strangely didn't leave me satisfied I thought I would be.

I came across an old friend of mine profile which left my school quite some time ago but we still managed to keep in touch somehow..
It wasn't until just now when I realised how unfairly I had treated her(yes, it is a her) last time.

All those while, I had this thought on my mind of me being the superior one. I thought I was the guy everyone loved and everyone just wanted to be in line to get my approval for a friendship. My ego-istic, self-centred self did not feel as if I was having any troubles with finding friends at all, no.

It's not like I was boasting around telling people around how many friends I had and how many people loved me. I wasn't also telling aloud I was very likable and people cannot get enough of me. But those assumptions were INDEED in my mind. And thinking about it is bad enough.

However, I am still not denying that I treat many people very nice and also am not denying that what I do everyday is genuine and sincere. Throughout my life in school, I had been criticised and accused of 'faking' my actions each day but the only thing I faked was acting friendly in front of those accusers. I was nicknamed bubbly, happy-go-lucky and most often people describe me as fun to be with and simply cheerful. Hey I'm not stating all those because I'm letting them get to my head because that is definitely not my intention in this post.

My intentions are, I want to clear it up once and for all that for one, I was genuine in what I do each day and how I may react to certain situations.
And secondly, however much people may have a positive impression of me, I thought far too highly.

Yes, positive impression.. but must that mean they must like me?

Most definitely not.

And so the conflict began, when my thoughts of everyone MUST somehow like me in a way came crumbling down.

Which was actually triggered from me surfing the friendster's profile.
I searched through her photos she posted and all I saw was her smiling and doing funny poses with her new-found friends at college. She even had plenty of pictures of friends from her school she went to after mine. I remembered just a few months back, she had a pic of me and another classmate of mine and she caption-ed it as "Old friends from SSC" But today, the pic is non-existent.

It then shook me. I had treated her unfairly, not giving her the attention she gave me and not caring for her as sincerely as she cared for me. All because I thought she just wanted my friendship for the sake of it. And then thoughts of her spending time with me just flashed before my eyes. Yes. She did care. But I didn't. Not as much anyway.

I didn't appreciate her friendship and hence she has moved on with her life and has left me behind regretting what I did in the past.

I don't blame her.
It was not worth waiting for me anyway.

Which leaves me very confuse in a way actually. At the same time, I'm afraid some friends I had or currently have are just using me in a way. Because I certainly suspect a few but hey, who am I to judge right?

I just want to apologize to the friend of mine who has gone many steps ahead eventhough it's far too late now. It's highly doubtful she will read this but at least I said it. You've made a good decision. Thx for giving me the wake up call.

My Mid-Year Examinations this whole week.
Weee.
After that 2 weeks holidays. 3 days of exams= 14++ days of holidays!
That'll be exciting.
It actually acts as some sort of a motivation that I shud work now and rest like mad later but somehow attempting to study is tough.
Hey I tried okay? I started ATTEMPTING some Specialist Mathematics question and realised that was a terrible decision. Me not being able to solve MOST(almost all) of the questions just made me super frustrated. Sigh.
I dunno man. I thought I was actually heading in the right track until the past year questions for the Mid Year came. So hard. HOW AM I GONNA GO THROUGH SPEC MATHS!!

AIHHH.
Maybe I shouldn't had started with it. Spoilt my mood only.
Tomorrow hardcore Mathematical Studies. Ok. Not that hardcore since I'll probably wake up at 5pm or so. But still must stardeeeee!

must must must!

:o

Arsenal Arsenal

Just, I took a cab home from Taylor's College at around 3pm after my class.
I was abit hesitant at first to enter the cab but I just had to go home as Chrisanne told me she was going to gome home at 7.30pm today for some studying at the library.

So anyway, I assumed the price I need to pay for a trip from Subang Jaya to Shah Alam is around RM20 because that was what I paid the last time I took a cab from Subang Parade to my house. But I don't even know if I was cheated that time. And I'm not even sure if I was cheated just now.

So when I opened the door asked if he could get me to my house, he asked me for a rate. "Biasanya bayar berapa?"

I gave a ?_? face and started thinking.
Damn. How much should I say. If I said RM20 will I be cheated twice?! I don't know cab rates these days. I don't use em. How much how much.

So I just tried my luck and said,
"Kira-kira 15 ke 20 ringgit macam tu la"

Then he said, "Beri rate la, senang sikit"

Me : Oh er... RM15 la.

He just showed a slightly annoyed look and agreed to take me. Like it's too cheap or something. But he may be acting so I wouldn't know.

Oh well. If anyone somehow DO know the taxi rates from SJ to SA, pls let me know. Thx. So I won't feel like I'm being cheated anymore.

--------

Looking at the topic of this post simply sums what I was going to post about.
It's the long-awaited classic. The game which promised to be the most exciting game ever played in a CL finals. The game of all games. Yeah, I'm talking about the Champions League Finals showdown between Arsenal and Barcelona.

U see. I was an Arsenal fan ever since few years back and I became more and more passionate for 'my' club as the years went by. I was obviously upset they didn't do well in the Premier League this season but on the other hand, the Champions League glory became possible.
I wasn't very excited bout the finals until a few hours before the match as I read the write-ups to the match online and newspaper articles which triggered the hype.

I would imagine being extremely happy to see Henry lifting the cup and the confetti raining down in full glory.
So I stayed up and watch. I had to.

But what happened to the so-called 'promised-to-be-a-classic' game?

At the 18th minute, Lehmann whose form has been fantastic this season especially in the Champions League, got sent off.
I looked and was shocked to my guts.
The dark clouds just overshadowed me at that very moment. And my hopes of seeing Arsenal in Champions League glory came crashing down in front of my very eyes.

Arsene Wenger has tried so hard. Arsenal has gone so far. Everyone has spoken so much.
But it was unavoidable now. Defeat I meant.

Pires got taken off. Almunia replaced as goalie.

I was almost proven to be wrong when Sol Campbell headed the ball into the opponent's net.
1-0 to Arsenal.
Scored with 10 men.
I couldn't contain my excitement and I started messaging the people I know who was interested.

Scored with 10 men. Wow. Arsenal. Truly magnificient. 10 men against the Spanish Champions and scored. Just wow.

The commentators seemed to agree with my viewpoint.
They seemed pissed, annoyed and frustrated with the referee.
Henry and many other Arsenal players got yellow carded with their 'hard' tackles. All Henry did was initialising a fantastic tackle. But he got yellowcarded.
Barca players came tackling late from the back. Many times. Yellow card offences for sure. But all the referee did was to give the free kick in Arsenal's favour.

Halftime came and I managed to take a breather. 10 men. What can Arsenal do.
I didn't write them off just yet. There is still a chance. A small glimpse of hope remains glowing in the dark.

Barca pushed like mad in the 2nd half. As expected.
All Arsenal did was defend. But they even managed to almost scored some as well with great runs from Fabregas, Ljungberg and Henry. But with 10 men, it is simply too tiring. They either lose their footings after a while or concentration on attack cannot be of 100% as they are afraid of the counter attack.

At the 79th minute, Barca equalised. They looked like scoring ever since Lehmann got sent off. With that goal, the 16 hour record mark Arsenal not conceding a goal came to an end. I was not upset with the way Arsenal conceded the goal. 10 men against Barca. Too big of an advantage to give I'm afraid. Eto was fantastic too I admit.
Then came the moment where my prayers all ended.
Barca scored a 2nd just 2 mins after they scored the first.
End of the match. Fullstop.

It was a climax-less CL Finals with at least one of the teams not to its full potential obviously. Lehmann who had a record of 100% saves in the CL would be the difference in this match. If it was 11vs11 with the on form goalkeeper still, I believe Arsenal had a chance to score even more. They looked great. Very focused until the sent off. Heck, they even had a chance at the 2nd minute. From that 2nd minute, I became more confident. All until the nightmare 18th minute.

Pires will have something to prove as he may be leaving to Spain next season. Arsenal were just great last night I thought. Even with 10 men. They defended extremely well and even had many, many opportunies to score considering their 10 men status.

Alot of ppl will come and tell me, "well they lost, get over it"
But I can't.
If Arsenal did lose with the fairest of referees and the best of the teams,
I would not be that disturbed.
But it obviously didn't happen. The game which was hyped up weeks and weeks by the media and the people around was simply destroyed by the red card decision.
It's just very unfortunate that we will not know if the truly best team had won.

And don't come telling me the game will end up the same even with 11vs11. Because it's not true. I believe people who start laughing at Arsenal now would be the people who didn't watch the match. The climax-less, one-sided CL Finals. 10 players having to work the work of 11 was simply too much especially against a quality side from Barca.

I repeat, it is just very unfortunate that no one will know if the best team had won.
It started off with what it promised but the game ended at the 18th minute. That was how I see it.

All that being said, I have to give credit to Barca. I believe Ronaldinho proved why he was the World Player of The Year with his fantastic dribbles and sight for goal. He was just simply too hard to tackle 1on1. I thought Eto was their best with his never-ending commitment and his skills were just electrifying. I like that man. I thought he was very professional too with the way he played the game.

Now the speculations will begin regarding the future of Thierry Henry.
I hope he stays, of course.. but it will only depend on what he sees in Arsenal comparatively to the team he saw at Barca. If I were him, I will definitely see that Arsenal simply had as much or maybe more quality to the spanish team that night.
With Henry already claiming that London was his one true home, I hope that even if he leaves, it wouldn't be the reason of seeing that Arsenal cannot match his ambitions.

Because I honestly felt they certainly did early this morning in Paris.
At the very, 'interesting' CL finals.
Arsenal to the end.

I don't like driving anymore

Yes. I said it.
A boy who was proud of his so-called 'gifted' driving skills ain't claiming that anymore. In fact, he is saying no more than the opposite.

My driving sucks. It's true.

I just finished my driving lesson minutes ago. And it was horrible. I never felt like I want to get out of the car so much in my life.

This was what happened.
It was my 3rd lesson or so, and my driver was supposed to pick me up from a place near my college.

So I went there on time and waited. Not longer than a few minutes, he arrived.
So naturally, I got into the passenger's seat and hoped to arrive at my driving centre for some maybe balancing or 3-point-turn practice.

After maybe a few turns or so around, he asked me.
"So you want to drive to the centre?"

I cannot remember the words exactly but it was something along that line.

A little suprised, I was thinking to myself like ,'what? can i or not'

In words, it came out as "Err...not sure la.. can meh?"

He didn't really reply. Probably used to such replies I guessed.
He just gave a little smile and said something like,"can slowly".

So he stopped the car at some area near my college.
I quickly proceeded into the driver's seat as soon as possible as I was quite sure there will be some college students around and I don't want anyone to recognize me.

So happily and excitedly(with a little fear), I got into the car.
I had not driven for 1 week plus so I had to try to comfort myself and get used to the stuff.

Sigh. Bad move, Alex.
So I was driving very slowly and happily..
For the first time in my life,
I got honked.

Screw those people I tell you. Can't they ever understand the L plate behind the car?! Not everyone are born good drivers u know. Grr.

The honkings got very normal after a while. Hey I'm not allowed to speed anyway. What do you expect?

So I learned how to change gears for the first time. Omg. How can he actually teach me on the road?! I mean.. it's just so sudden. Couldn't I get some warm up first at some less congested road?

Obviously I took some time to get used to it.

But when I finally did, it was quite smooth sailing until I got to some traffic congestion.
Oh gosh.
It's super tough for a first time. It really is.
I don't care if some people who are reading this are saying,"it was easy or not that difficult"
The fact remains that, it was tough from me. Coming out from a stopping position to a moving one.
IT"S TOUGH!!@!$@$%!@

Especially if there's a mini hill.
Super duper tough.
The moment I put down my hand brakes and do the balancing shit.
GG. Thousands of cars already passed each staring into my car in some annoyed look.

HELLO? I AM NO EXPERT OKAY? I BELIEVE UR EYES ARE CLEAR ENUFF TO SEE THE L PLATE BEHIND??

Bah. More honks.
I tried to keep myself composed and just concentrated on driving.

I was also a little sleepy so I was trying my best to open my eyes wide. (don't tell anyone this especially my relatives)

There was one time I remembered, some young malay guy who was having a P plate at his car.. came and cut my road and he put his hand out like a signal of thanks or something. I THINK HE DID IT INITIALLY! He came so close I had to turn right a little. My instructor immediately shooked and said "ehhh dont turn like that!"
I was explaining about that car but he just asked me to release my oil or something.
Haih. Bad impression.

My first on-the-road drive was pretty okay with exception to the stopping parts I guess. I don't think I was the worst, no.

There were some moments when my instructor shouted to me but he didn't really mean it in a negative way. It's all part of the teaching process. How can things like "CLUTCH, BRAKE!" or "OIL HANDBRAKE" be considered as harsh. Cmon now.

Nothing could make me happier than finally arriving at the driving centre.
I did Parking today. First time too. Pretty fun. It went quite well!
But I mati enjin-ed twice. In a row. Not during the parking process but after u know.. when you try to get out of the parking area? Yea. That part. I released too much clutch. Twice in a row. Other than that it should be okay. Like any other student. Not magnificient though.

There were also MANY times when my car jerked and felt abit old-school. I realised I don't know how to control my oil properly.
When I press, it's too much.
When I try to press softly, nothing gets pressed.
Then when I release the clutch, my right leg will automatically feel like releasing the oil a little. Then I'll end up not using up any oil at all.
That's just so wrong to do during the Parking or the 3-pt-turn.
*shakes head*

So after that,
he thought I should drive to my mother's office around 5-10 mins away with a normal car's speed.
So I drove. ZZZ. SUPER CONGESTION.
IF my first time on-the-road was bad, this was 10X worst.

I had to slow down, stop, move, slow down, stop, move, change gears, stop, balance, move, MORE TIMES THAN I EVER DID BEFORE.
THATS WHEN I REALISED.. IM NOT THAT GOOD AFTER ALL.

I got so bloody confused during the traffic part. Are some of the cars honking me because I am doing something wrong or am I just slow? I don't mind if I'm just slow.. cause there's nothing wrong with that. But my instructor is not saying anything. Is it because he is so frustrated or he thought I was doing alrite? Someone please say something.

I don't get why NOBODY complained about driving on the road first time.
Well I never heard any.
That is why I came up with a conclusion. My driving sucks. I think it's just me. I was super horrible I felt.

Anyway, back to my driving to my mum's office.
Got one part at the traffic light where there was a little slope so I had to do some balancing once again. What do you know? All I heard was honkings and seeing cars passing me quickly and the green light turning to red. GG alex. I was not even fast enough to make the car move. Haihz. Super embarassing.
It happened twice actually at different traffic lights. Twice the embarassment. :(

So my driving sucked.
Hey. I don't know if I will get any better or continue sucking.
But if I do get better, I would probably feel driving differently.

But until that time,
I will not boast about my driving skills anymore.

Smile Kelvin, I know you want to.

My Mid-Year Examination is next week

I brought down a whole stack of files, papers and books from my room upstairs to the room downstairs just now.
I wanted to do my maths. Both maths. Just for a little revision for the exams next week, you know.

But all I ended up doing was sorting out my papers into their individual subjects.
Haihhhhz.

My preparations for the exams next week are so screwed.
Why oh why can't I just find enough will to actually take out my text book to aid me in finding solutions to the difficult questions that often bring down my mood?

Maybe it's the gym session I had hours ago.
Yes. That must be it.
I must be awfully tired.

1:08AM as I type this now.
I really need to learn how to pull myself away from my computer's screen.

But how?
:/

One week ago was my last post.

Somehow or rather, I don't feel like I have anything to post. I mean.. I do but.. everytime I think of something that I want to blog about, the moment I arrive at my computer's screen I will lose all mood to blog.

And so,
that explains the lack of posts.


The society these days are extremely health conscious.
And I am too.
;)

I've registered for Celebrity Fitness in Subang Parade. It's a gym in case you are blur.
A really cool one too.
Very often classes will be conducted and you can just walk in and join.
My muscles had been aching as I had been working them for the past week.
I hope I will be discipline enough to continue with my schedule.
If that's the case, I can't wait to see the results in a few months time. :D
Fit Alex. Bwahaha.

I went and had a look at the Celebrity Fitness 1Utama branch just now. I heard it was smaller but I wanted to see anyway.
The concept is very similiar(no surprises there) and it only differs at the placement of equipments and the rooms I guess.
The entrance from the Shopping Mall was very blue-ish lighted. It reminded me sort of like an entrance to a strip club or something. It felt that way somehow. Don't get me wrong.. I just happened to come across many many strip clubs at my trip to Australia few years back, and so.. I kinda know.

And yeah,
Happy Mother's Day to all mothers!

My Mid-Year Examinations will be coming up soon. The week after this coming week to be precise. Not really ready but since it will only last 3 days for me, it will pass like a breeze. After that I will have the mid-term break. Shud be some sort of a motivation for me. Work hard now, relax later.

Going out for dinner soon.
Will try to find some time to blog.

Sunday, May 07, 2006

I was awaken by my mum on Saturday who was muttering something about a dead snake found in the house, maid left it in the store room and it died of hunger and something about me having to take a photo of the snake along that lines.

:/

As I was sleeping very comfortably, I didn't really reply and just mumbled "mmm" as in "yeah, I heard you."

So when I finally woke up, there was a note written by my dad stating he wanted to have a photo of the snake taken for some complain he was going to make. Bahh.

However, I also had some driving lessons in the next hour so instead of preparing my camera for the snake photoshoot, I had to look for transport to get me to the freaking driving centre.
Ended up, my dad took me to the driving centre.. and I totally forgot about the dead snake lying in the kitchen.
Obviously, my dad wasn't happy and showed some signs of frustration.
Bahh.

Anyway, my driving lessons were a little embarassing. I told my friends yesterday that I shouldn't show off anymore after what happened. Hahaha. I was very proudly claiming that I didn't mati enjin once for my first lesson. Ended up, I mati enjin-ed around 4 times yesterday. -___- Nooooo. The most embarassing one was on the big hill where my car died right on the hill with one long queue of cars behind waiting. Oh my Gosh. And summore I wasn't used to have my engine dying so I didn't really know what to do and started to have a slight panic attack.
I asked my instructor and he told me to do bla bla bla. You wouldn't guess how happy I was to get down the freaking hill.

Another equally as embarassing moment wasn't really involving other ppl watching but just myself. I tend to put my left foot too high on the clutch and my instructor kept reminding me on that. So there was once when I was pressing the clutch but then I realised I was too high and I didn't want him to notice it.
So what did I do?
I tried to move my foot down -_-
ZZzzzZ. Tha was totally like a GG moment for me.

But it was alright la other than that. I get why most people fail at the hill now. Understandable. It's not something I like doing very much. My three point turn is pretty okay I guess anyway.

And summore I met Richmond there driving around. His test is on Monday, which is tomorrow so he was practising. Expectedly, he made fun of me driving after that. -_- I DIDN"T STOP AT THE ROUNDABOUT ON PURPOSE OKAY! The thing was.. there was a car stopping there for some reason. So I had to wait. And the worst thing was.. I had to stop at the part where there was a little slope approaching the roundabout. So what did I have to do... I had to do some mini balancing! Omgz. And considering I am a total newbie at balancing, I had to do step by step, trying to remember what to do each time. And Richmond was making fun of me that I stopped there. -__- And my reverse down the hill wasn't an accident!! It was on purpose. My instructor was trying to get my stopping on the line to perfection so he kept asking me to do over and over again. I had to change to free gear and release my clutch and my brakes. :( Thx. I hope I cleared that up. XD

I'm glad my progress in driving is finally moving.
Wuhoo. In no time, I would be driving around!!! HAHAHAHAHA. Can't wait man. I had been troubling people far too often. Now no need to go home at a specific time whatsoever. And I can go out on weekends too if I feel like it! Or yum cha at night with frens! Hahahaha. And also pay back my frens who had to fetch me home all the time! hahahaha. Relax! That time is coming soon.
I just hope I don't get lost though. My sense of direction is desperately in need of improvement.

So after the driving,
I had to go home and prepare for some birthday party at night.
And I also had to take picture of the snake remember?
But my maid already brought the snake outside and curled it up nicely.
:/
It was freaking geli I tell you.
The snake.
YUX MAN.
I thinking about it also damn geli.
The dead snake. With normal colorful scales and all.
AHHHHHHH.

I want to share the geliness so I'm going to post the photo here.

Thomas Cup

Badminton has to be the most ever exciting game in the world.
Yes. It even surpasses football most of the times.

I don't know if it's because of my patriotic self taking over during Malaysia matches but gosh. It is a guarantee that my heart will be affected somehow. That is how much it affects me. My heart is feeling abit pain now. Very weak heart. I know.

But that's only because I just watched the Malaysia Vs Denmark Thomas Cup SemiFinals First Doubles Match.
Super exciting. 3 set. 2nd set the score was 30-28 to Denmark. Can you just imagine that. WON IN THE END BTW OMGZ!!

But first singles lost. I never watched. Can't report.
So now a game a piece. CMON HAFIZ OMGZAOPOPORERWEER.

Will blog more about the badminton part next.

For now, back to the TV!

When I say Malaysia, U shout BOLEH!

is that okay?

okay. here goes.

Malaysia...



Thx. I appreciate it. :)

omgzzzzzzz.
once in a lifetime experience.
and i was lucky enuff to print screen! XD

...
okla. actually i cheated. -_-
I was bloody doing my ESL project covers and when I looked at the time.. it was 1:04 already. -_____-
So I had to adjust my time back a few minutes to capture that.
Hey it's not that bad okay?!
Only a few minutes.. not like adjusting the whole clock by hours or weeks or months for that matter.
;)

I thought something would happen at that very second.
Nothing did.
:/

At least for me.

Back to projects.
Damn.

Poncho

Yesh. I still got alot of things to complete. Refering to the last post, my updated list of things to do would look something like this :-

  • ESL 2000 words final essay
  • ESL Planning Material + Annotated Bibliography
  • Physics Info-Search Detailed Outline
  • IT Database System
  • Mathematical Studies homework *new*

    Looks better now. The IT Database I still got 2 months to complete so yeah.. ;)

    Btw. I'm getting addicted over Pooch Café past few weeks. It's really really my type of comic and it's freaking hilarious. When I intro-ed Kelvin to it, he somehow went and buy a comic compilation for it. -_- The leading dog's name is Poncho btw. Hates cats and scared of squirrels. Really damn cute character. Funny shit.
