CNY Part 1

My parents felt that 2 years is more than enough so they decided to celebrate the CNY back where it originally was.. Malacca. For the past 2 years, the Yeo family had been celebrating the CNY at my place, Shah Alam as they feel a change is required to toss away the old same routine and the boredom it may bring. But it isn't easy having a reunion at ur place. So...yeah.. :)

The trip back to Malacca was a relaxing one as the car had 2 ppl less this time. :D
It was definitely less fun but at least my sister and I got a bigger space to rest in the car for the journey there..


Damn jam wei. Frustrating!


Sun setting down on me.. :(

I left on CNY's eve so the jam was kinda obvious. Sigh. The supposedly 1 hour trip doubled in length and I had to suffer in the car. :(

Went straight to the hotel to drop stuff and went to the restaurant for the reunion dinner. Late as usual, being the Yeo family. Bwahaha. Met relatives and all there.
Pretty awkward as the the environment feels the same every single year. :/


Incomplete Yee-Sang. A must have for every CNY dinner

Went to my grandma's hse after that for the ang pau sessions from my aunty and uncles and of course, the gambling session. Bwahaha. I lost the most that night btw..compared to the other gambling session I had. ARgh.


A game of 21

Also played Mahjong and lost once again in the hotel with my cousins. !!!! Damn unlucky wei..Not noob ok? I got the set and all..but sometimes not enuff points to win.. or just plain lousy tiles. :(

Bah. I'll leave the rest for Part 2. :) Food pics coming up. Meanwhile, pls do call me for some mahjong or blackjack sessions. And I want to attend open houses! Don't forget to invite me pls..for all the good reasons :)

Goodbye once again, Adrian Chong

Just last year, when Adrian left for Perth after his holidays.. I honestly didn't feel anything at all. It was only this particular return to Malaysia he made that had caused the strings to be rebonded.



Honestly speaking, however gay it may sound, I feel like I wouldn't be the Alex Yeo I am today if I had never gotten to know him. Eventhough it was obvious he was finding me an average boy in his classes, I still felt much respect for him.
It may be because of his sister or just his frequent first positions in class. He was smart, friendly and fun to be with as well during my end of primary school years and start of secondary school.

I felt that I could relate to him most among others, and thus.. I had made him the guy I would talk to everyday. Primary school term : Best friend.

He was a damn nice kid that time. As in, no vulgarity.. no bad doings and stuff. Being his 'good friend', I had to control myself as to not get influenced into the darker side. I was seriously very easy to be influenced and I was quite sure Adrian was the one who had prevented me from being a terrible gangster-like kid. :)
I guess indirectly he helped me achieved my excellent PMR results. Bwahaha.

Eventhough we looked like worlds apart when we were buddies that time, we still had some very interesting similiarities!
Like, we both thought Kelvin was _______?
We both played table tennis?
We both discussed Wah Lai Toi movies?
And etc etc etc.

Honestly, I did and do not know what he thought of me that time. Maybe he was just 'layan-ing' me as I was talking to him everytime. I don't know.
But I think the friendship should be genuine. :)

When he left to Australia in Form 2, the first few days of school was extremely different. I think I felt the lost of his presence among the class. I remembered looking out of the window in my classroom on the day he was flying to Perth, wishing I could see the plane(omg how gay). It was kinda sad.

Like everyone knows, I'm not a very social person.. First few months of Form 2, I spent time walking alone, eating alone and spending time alone. It was only after a while which I realised I could not avoid the rest of my classmates and then joined the Praveen and Kelvin gang.. which had resulted into today's chain of friendship. :)

It is nice thinking about the good ol' days I had when Adrian was still in my class.
The dumb games we played, the times he helped me in something. Bah.

When he came back for holidays for the first time, we met up of course and hung out.
But slowly... the more he leaves and returns, we(the classmates) did not feel the need or urgency to go and see him anymore to be honest. Some ppl even thought he just come home and calls us out as he got nobody to hang out with. But this has changed in his most recent trip here. :)

Of course he's not the goodie boy Adrian anymore. He drinks, and.... stuff.
I do not even know if he still finds the friendship genuine or not.

All I know is, he will be leaving this Sunday on the 29th and won't be back till December.
And for that, I wish him all the best.
There is a possibility of me being able to study in the same environment with him next year.
And I'm sure he will make it there. The decision lies on me now.

Definitely not as close as we used to be but his company is still full of laughter and fun. Bwahaha.

And this post has no gay intention whatsoever.
It's just a post to wish him all the best this year.
And also to say that, for the first time in many years..
I may miss his presence once again.


MCB..

CNY eve eve's eve

I can't believe it's approaching the end of January already. So fast.
Just the beginning of this month, I was in UK and about to start college.
Now, i'm already 1 month or less into college and feeling all stressed up already.
Well not really, but still! So much work. Nooo.

I have chosen a topic on aliens and life in outer space for my ESL research project.
I know it's quite common and every year there's surely some guy who would choose it. And that guy this year in my class is me.
Woohoo.
I can't think of anything else already. I'm not in a very inspired mood in the first place and secondly, I suck at thinking of topics anyway.
So if any of you guys got sources for my topic.. or just happened to come across an article on it in the papers or something, pls do inform me. I'll appreciate it to the max.

Transportation's a little less worry now. Chrisanne has gotten her cousin's driver to fetch her and myself to college everyday with a pay of course.
I don't mind. IT's so much more convenient.

Bloody JPJ rejected my letter stating I was colorblind. _|_ They want a DOCTOR's letter. Not an optimetrist. Damn dumb rite? Screw it la. Just wanna delay their job.
It's gonna be around June I predict till i finally get my license. Sucks.

Learning HTML programming for my IT studies currently. May practice new stuff on this blog. ;)

Adrian's flying back to Perth this Sunday. Since i'll be leaving to Malacca tomorrow till Monday, tomorrow's gonna be the last time I'll be able to see him till December.
If I work hard enough, I hope to see him in Melbourne U next year. IF.

Everyday I don't get enough sleep and the effects are showing already.


I don't know what else to update on.
Praveen's flying on the 9th next month, Shyan on the 14th. Koi Lin I believe on the 12th.

May only be able to send Praveen off since it's at night.
The others.. omg. Must think of solutions!

Asia Cafe has lousy food.
Salmon Steak is affordable.
Kopitiam opposite Asia Cafe selling Chicken Rice is nice.
I've never been to the Pasar Economy Rice stall yet.

Not gonna worry about getting banned at Blueserver anymore so I'll just leave games.
I need something to control me from playing games.
Thx.

CNY this sunday. Quite excited.
Mood's gonna be quite dead too anyway since many cousins and siblings cannot make it.
:(

I really wanna go Melb U next year.
I really wanna score well for SAM finals.
I really wanna understand everything I'm studying.
I really wanna be able to socialise with every single person.
I really wanna show my parents I'm actually working for my future.

I really wanna.
But just not desperate enough.

alexeO v.06

Another week of college begins tomorrow. Sigh.
It's like this clock which keeps ticking.. leaving you behind if you slack a little.
It just goes and goes.. if you don't catch up, that's your problem.

Soon enuff.. I may just be lost in this wheel of time.
I'm trying not to. But there's this force which is pulling me behind. Hard.
My other half. The lazy Alex half.

To simplify things, I have not yet done the work which I was supposed to do.
And classes start very soon. I feel like I just got dismembered by the Butcher from DotA. Sigh again.

My driving instructor hasn't called back. As expected. What a fag.

I realised something on my bed last night.
As I was blanketing myself, I thought of the reasons why I find it hard to adapt so easily to new surroundings.
I realised that, I am very very picky when it comes to situations.
It's like..
Ppl can accept another person easier than i do. For example, during this random grouping presentation thingy I had for ESL class, there was this guy who doesn't really know what Reality TV is and english was kinda on the weak side. But this other guy, who seems to be fluent in english and know as much or more than me.. just listened and corrected him as if it wasn't his fault or something and went on with the discussion without a single look of disgust or without an insulting tone.

I mean.
Huh?

I feel so bad. I was like.. half heartedly pitying that fella on why was he such lowly exposed, giggling deep down inside me. But this other guy I mentioned.. just accepted it so.. like nothing at all.

I realised I've been an asshole throughout my whole life. Who am I to judge ppl anyway? I discriminate ppl. I criticise ppl. I insult them.
And all this while I thought I was doing it because EVERYONE does it.
But that's not true. It was only me. It's not like I say it out.. I just think to myself deep inside.. However, the fact still remains that...

I'm an ass.

No wonder I have problems with my transportation everyday. I have received the punishment I deserve. Sigh. I am really sorry to the ones I felt that way to.
You guys dont know who you are. Thank God for that.

I went for my haircut finally just now.
I didn't cut it alot. Trimmed a little.
Shit. Dad may diu me later. He loves seeing my hair short.
But it's not. I know he wouldn't be happy.
And he's in the room beside me now.
How how how.
Meeting him for dinner later. Gotta play the ignoring game later and just smile at his remarks.
Especially now that I've..


*drum beats*
..dyed my hair.

yes i did.
it would be easier to show pics.
since pictures show a thousand words anyway.







I love it. :)

-alexeO-

Desperation to the next level

I think it's very uncool that I have to depend on different sources of transportation everyday.

Super inconvinient as well.

I called my soon-to-be driving instructor yesterday regarding my Undang test. He just told me he will submit my colorblindness letter to the JPJ and call me back to inform me when can I sit for the test. I don't know if that's an excuse or what but I have serious doubts on whether he will be calling back or not. I shall bug him later to force him to help us asap. In us, i meant chrisanne and I. If it's really more troublesome for a colorblind person to sit for undang, I'm just wasting Chrisanne's time. This sucks. I have given the opportunity for someone to create a super good excuse out of thin air. It's not my fault. Blame the genes. :P

I don't know when will I finally see myself holding my driving license. If that day is tomorrow, then today will be the happiest day of my life.
I'm troubling different ppl everyday. I do feel bad and guilty too. So far, thanks 1st sis, praveen, kelvin, vernon, gadafi.
It'll be nicer if that list doesn't grow cause I owe alot to them already. But it will. I know it.

So new rules, eh? Government trying something funny. By allowing u to sit for the lessons only after 1 month after getting ur Undang over with. Thx for troubling your citizen here who needs to get his ass to college everyday just to help improve the country's economy in the future. U're not really helping, just to let u know.

My college is fine. So far. My classmates are cool. It's just that it's me who's not doing the talking. They already have a regular joking gang already. Only that I'm not in it. It's me. I'm Alex. I'm not a very social person. I am trying. Sigh.
Classes are okay. So far understandable. Gotta start my mathematical studies homework soon. I need practice.

I screwed my ESL Show and Tell presentation just now. Don't ask me about it. I dowan to be reminded of it. It's just not easy performing in front of ppl whom you are thinking what they are actually thinking about u. I do not have that problem last year. That's because, I know everyone.

How much do an average college student spend per day anyway? I've been paying RM5 for my meal everyday. I duno if that's too much. Sounds costly. I don't use RM5 on an average basis in school. Zzz.

So 2nd week of college has ended. And I don't really miss school yet.
I really need my license. My Proton Waja is waiting for me at home.
I am getting.. impatient.
I'm worried one day I'll just drive off from home.

How.
How.
How.



-alexeO-

Still need to Drive

Still very desperate for a driving license.
It's getting to another level now.

It sucks. Sigh.

Got some presentation to do for ESL tomorrow. Some show and tell kinda thing.
Duno what to do yet. Cmon Alex. Best speaker for debate?? :P U can do better!

How am i going tomorrow?
How am i going home?

I don't know. :/

T1<--my class

3 days into college, and i'm not feeling fantastic. The subjects are okay and all but i realised adapting takes harder then i thought it would be. Chinese speaking friends will go for chinese speaking friends. English speaking friends seemed to have a group originally already. The guys in my class are either booksmarts or dota freaks. Maybe it's better if I don't make that many friends and only a few. That'll be better for my studies. But wouldn't I be branded as a loser then. *Gasp*
Maybe.. I should just stay on the fence and don't get distracted too much to be on the friend-friend side. That way, I can be nice to everyone and still have time to study. Sounds like a suitable part to play in.

Hmm.

Specialist maths i realised is not easy. Yea. Just first day into it and I know.
It's a subject I have to work extremely hard on.

Was warned about punctuality on handing assignments and coming to class too.
Gotta change.

Need to buy books desperately. Some prices are just ridiculous. And they don't allow photostated books. Maybe i'll just photocopy some if i'm really desperate.
I shud had bought them earlier. The seniors have already sold most of them.
Possibility of books being sold out is high.

Still meeting my cahayian friends regulary despite the tight timetables. During breaks and esp after classes. Monday-Thursday is stressful. 8-3 with an hour break in between. I finish at 1 on Friday. Seemed much more relaxing.

Re-newed my profile at the side there. Pls tell me if it's out of place or right at the bottom. Cause it's supposed to be there, right below my chatterbox. ZZz.

Transportation still is a big problem for me. Now I got Kelvin to send Chrisanne and I home everyday with a pay.
Going I have serious problems. Gotta start looking for Shah Alam-ers to fetch me there.
Sigh.
Called my driving instructor just now asked about Undang. He said he was driving or something and will call me back. He didn't.

Life is sad as a colorblind and a November boy.
:(

New friends, driving license, subjects, books, new friends, driving license, subjects, books.
What am i gonna doooooooooooooooooooooooooo?
:/

Orientation

SAM Orientation was today. It was.. awkward. In a sense that.. everything was so..alien. So just plain weird :/

Amazingly, I woke up an hour earlier before my alarm somehow. I think it's due to the jetlag I'm facing. Zzz. I also finally shaved off my moustache and chinaman beard. :( I look freaking weird now. Sigh.

So basically, I arrived in the morning. Then called up my friends. Walked up the stairs to the freaking HIGHEST floor and met Teck Kuan..and tried to collect my student ID and timetable. But what the heck.. the line was so freaking long to the classroom i was supposed to go to. And that time I wasn't even sure if i was at the right queue. Bah.
So I left. And went all the went down. Then I went all the way up again. Then down. Then up again. Sweated like an old dog. Wtf man. There goes my 'clean' image.

Finally got my stuff at that very class. And met up with more of my friends.
Then went to the class I was assigned too. And met my..other classmates. Who were kinda friendly.. but most of them shared a similiar feature. One guy introduced himself to me and said hi. I did the same. Sigh. 2 more friends said hi. I replied.
=/ Seeing the class I'm gonna spend 11 months with, I believe it should be okay.
I'll learn to socialise more. I have to.

Met up with ex-classmates at Starbucks and chatted a while too.

Classes start tomorrow.
I'm not looking forward to it at all.
When I told my ex-classmates I'll be doing Physics, they gave me that ..'look'.
Zzz. Damn offended. But shall prove them wrong. Bwahaha.

Mind not ready for studies.
And to think of the transportation problem stresses me more.

Who's gonna fetch me to and fro everyday.
Sigh.

What a troublesome start to my 2006.

-alexeO-

hm..

College for me starts tomorrow. I wonder how's the situation like in Seri Cahaya today. It's gonna be weird having school without Alex there. Bwahaha. Gd luck to schoolboys and schoolgirls anyway. To the form 5s, don't follow my footsteps and struggle at November. Pls start early.

ADP also had their orientation today. So far, I only know 2 ppl that's doin ADP.

Many courses gonna have their first days tomorrow. Including mine.

My 1 month holiday has ended so quickly. I think it's the 2 weeks trip I had that has eaten my time I planned to use to laze around. Bwahaha.

And I can't even drive yet. I have not even sat for my Undang. Wtf. Damn mafan for me cause I got some colorblind problem. Gahh!! I only went for the first seminar thingy.

Who's gonna fetch me to college then? :(
Hopefully I can get my P by.. around February. Sigh.

Not ready at all.
Duno what to do.
Zzz.


-alexeO-

Roar

Happy New Year everyone!

I'll be coming back on Jan the 2nd. Pls mark that date on ur 2006 calendars thx.
:)

It's been a while since I last saw anyone.
It's nice seeing ppl saying they miss you at their blogs and on msn.

I'm touched. Thx. :')

I really appreciate it!

will be back soon! see ya all soon!!

:D


-alexeO-

UK

This would be my last post before my flight to the UK. More specifically, England.

:/

It's gonna be a looooong trip so I guess I won't be seeing any of you guys for a lil while. Flight back is on Jan 2nd. :(
Besides the fact that i'm gonna miss the casual outings with my friends, I'm gonna miss the christmas and new year plans my frens are gonna have. Hmm. I know I wouldn't be seeing some of them for a long long time but what the heck. Also gonna have only one day to prepare for college(what's there to prepare anyway) since my programme starts at Jan 4th.

Speaking of friends, happy birthday in advance, Wilson. We may have one or 2 misunderstandings before especially the famous incident in class but know that I still think u're funny and a kenix wannabe! Bwahahaha. And stop scolding ppl.

To future Aussie-goers including the not so confirmed ones.. Praveen, Koi Lin, Pei Huan, Huey Shyan, Chrisanne.. I sincerely wish u guys all the best. It seems like a giant leap but know that we'll always be there for you! Take care guys. I mean it. Don't waste all the effort of studying abroad by slacking. Work hard! Hopefully by 2007 I can see you guys there! :)

Praveen pls do take care of your alcohol intake. I may miss my drinking partner temporarily but I hope it doesn't become permanent. :D I know this sounds gay but good luck all the best in Trinity!

Huey Shyan.. stay the nice girl you are and do know that the times I scold you or talk rudely was not always intentional.
No hard feelings! Whether or not you are going Australia, don't make ur decisions based on friends. Stop worrying whether we'll lose contact cause true friends will keep in touch no matter what!

Koi Lin, Pei Huan.. I doubt you guys even read this but good luck to you guys too. :)

I also would like to stress that I've always wanted to meet twins and triplets in person and woah. How lucky at year 2000 when this set of twins entered my class. I'm sorry if I crossed the line and became annoying but I am seriously fascinated by the pair. Even till now, Teck Eng and Teck Kuan still gets annoyed by my frequent comments on twins and asking each how it feels like.

Teck Eng.. I want you to stay lame pls. But sometimes being overlame is just damn lame. And it doesn't make any sense anymore. So control it a little :D I feel proud and happy when you seek me for advice and your constant tolerance with me also keeps me surprised all the time. I mean how could you tolerate me insulting you so much and all. Even sometimes I feel bad. Somehow I feel you don't like me as much anymore but who the heck cares! BWahahah. Hope you achieve your college resolution whatever it is.

Teck Kuan.. Kelvin is right all time. I admit I've told him I dislike you for some reason. Bwahaha. But hey, no hard feelings alrite? I hate almost everyone anyway in some way. Just this year we've been interacting more and I guess it helped to improve our eh-hem, friendship. It was a great Genting trip you organised and thanks for that too. I know having called names for almost half of your life isn't easy but just deal with it alrite? I think by next year it will lower down drastically. I've been thru that part of life too. And also, don't smile so wide in photographs pls. Thx.

This year had been a hectic studying year(not that I did that much) for SPM-ers.
It sucks seriously. So I've been attending many tuition and started with Chrisanne's house and then Kelvin introduced me to some great add maths class which unfortunately I keep disappointing the teacher. So,

Chrisanne.. I guess we have a weird friendship or I just think it's plain weird. You keep confusing me with your "i don't like you alex" etc. But sometimes you say "frens frens" ?_? But I've learned to tolerate and i guess that's fine :D
We still haven't perform our duet on "bless the broken road" but I'm sure we can do that some other day. Zzz. Stay healthy pls. And don't ignore me on MSN when i nudge you next year. Bwahaha. Thx.

Kelvin.. Lol. Longest ever I've been in the same class with. 8 years in a row I think. That's fantastic. Thx for ur sms. :/
I not writing much because I can see that we gonna hang out much next year.
So screw it. Bwahaha.

Richmond.. Have fun dota-ing. See you next year I guess wherever you are. Piloting.
Gl hf. Call me for cc sessions.

Nick.. Pls improve your dota and then call me to 1v1. And stop merajuk-ing. And lying. And crying. Bahh. Other than that u're cool.

I also have several e-buddies I call them who shud not be forgotten.

Mei Chan. LOL. We have to thank Teck Eng for introducing me to you and vice versa.
Cause it has been great. Even if we did not get to meet each other in real life, I still think u're cool. Deep down inside I don't know what u think of me but I don't care. Praise me if u can cause I like living in denial. Also stop acting angry like me. And yea, thx for ur effort in stopping me for gaming. But I just can't. Sorry for not replying ur messages fast enuff on msn these days. Gd luck next year whatever you do aite! =) We'll stay in touch on the net.

Joyce. Hey lola. ;)

Eileen. Bwahahaha. I hardly know you omg! I just remember you as the std 4 girl who danced the indian dance. -_- lala.

Kar Wai, stay smart. Don't lanci.

Su Cheng, hello.

To those I didn't mention or forgot to, I don't mean it.
I duno who reads my blog so don't get offended pls. ALL THE BEST to you too!!!

Like I said in my previous post, I'll be doing SAM in Taylors College.
If you miss me, pls see me there.
I'll be more than happy.

Thx.


Teary-eyed,(not really)
-alexeO-

My new beginnings

I am no more free from academics.
I am no more free to do anything I please.
I am back as a student as I once was.

I have reincarnated.

I am now, a college student.

Woah. Pretty gay thinking of the idea that I'm attached to education once again. From Dec 2nd, I had officially ended my formal education which will only continue if I enroll for a certain higher education. And yea, I just came back from doing that.

I have enrolled into the SAM programme at Taylors College.
If you miss me, pls see me there.
The timetable sucks. The hours are longer than school hours.
I can imagine the 'hectic-ness' of this.
I don't like this feeling.

Like I told my friends, I'm not looking forward for college life at all.
It's like entering a new school. And besides, probably EVERYONE in my class could drive already. And me? I just took one Undang Seminar. That's it.
It sucks.

And shit. I forgot to tick my medical problem too. I just remembered. The had a section for colourblindness. And I didn't tick that. I just remembered. Die.
I'm gonna make it a point to tell them during Orientation Day.
Sigh.
I'm such an incomplete person.

And also, my self esteem cannot be any lower at this point. Not only am I an incomplete person, I'm also a dumb person. I didn't even meet the minimum requirement for Specialist Mathematics. It sucks. It requires you to have a C5 for Add Maths at least. But my forecast shows C6. And I thought a credit will do. They never mentioned it at all.

When I showed my forecast to the lady who was helping me, she was already advicing me. I just made every subject borderline. I have to work very hard. Especially for Specialist Mathematics which thankfully they let me take that subject.
Hey, I'm not that all sucky in Add Maths okay? I know my results show otherwise. But seriously. I could understand everything and do everything in class.
ARgh.

And I'm not that dumb either. I know I achieved Cs for ALL my science subjects. But who the heck cares. U need at least a C6 for physics, I got a C5. =)
Btw, I'm doing the Computer Engineering/Science group of subjects. So screw Chem and Bio. I don't need you anymore. Bwahahaha. My subjects are:-

English
Maths
Specialist Maths
Physics
IT studies

They also had a Chemistry subject for this stream. U are supposed to choose 2 out of Chem, Phy and IT. But OMG? I'm definitely not touching Chem in my life anymore.
So I dropped it.
And I'm gonna take IT. I've never taken IT in my life.. but I'm gonna see how is it gonna work now. I hope I can manage. I should be able to.
And physics? I was one of them Ariff said not to touch physics anymore when I leave school. But _|_ I'm doing it. I like physics. I think I can do it too.

So SAM requires consistent work throughout the year.
And guess what?
I'm gonna do just that.
College life is the perfect time for me to turn over a new leaf.
And education is getting serious now.
So stfu bad influences. I'm not gonna listen to ya.

It's not a cheap course. And I know that. So I won't be trying to waste my parents money.

I still am not looking forward for college life.
I am not looking forward for the 'new-school' environment.
And the troubles of waking up so early. And not even driving myself.
As of now, I still have no transport whatsoever.

This sucks.
I want to drive so badly.
But i'm colorblind. And I dunno the right procedure to pass the undang test.

And the fear of driving a manual car.
So many things bothering me.

And I am having thoughts of not achieving more than C5 for Add Maths for my real SPM. The lady asked me just now if I think I could score better for my real SPM for add maths. I said yea. What if I don't? Will they pull me out? Won't that be uber embarassing?

I hate all of this.

1U



Watched The Chronicles of Narnia : The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe just now.
I personally liked it alot eventhough my friends thought it didn't meet the expectations. I thought the battle scenes were extremely 'kan cheong' especially the build up to it. :D

However, I have to say it doesn't really live up to the publicity given to this show. Firstly the preview was fantastic(i love previews). Then the posters. I mean.. it doesn't even reflect the whole movie. The focused on the details they showed only once or twice in the movies which i don't geddit.
Well it may not be as wow as intially pictured but it still worked for me.

Checked out the Narnia official website just now. And read the synopsis for the 7 Books. There's one which showed the creation of Narnia..(i'm quite sure they would make this into a movie because there were several things said in the movie which touched on the formation of Narnia)
Another showed the summoning back of the 4 main characters.
The rest with new casts.
Another with slight relation with the lion,the witch bla bla bla.

Oh well.

Also was super malu-ed just now. By the freaking hand-sensor-dancing-machine.
ARGH.
Normally those games attract a crowd no matter how good or sucky you are.
And that's such an unfortunate thing. Cause I did attract a crowd.

And.
The malu thing was.

ARGH.
U know the machine.
I was only standing at ONE SIDE.
U are supposed to stand in the middle.
Standing at ONE SIDE is for double players.

But I was playing Single player.
And I stood at ONE SIDE.
And I was complaining how faulty the machine was cause it couldn't sense properly.
And there were ppl smiling at me from behind.

The minute I left frustrated, a guy walked inserted coins and started playing.

Oh.my.god.

Malued. to the max.
Gahh!

Left immediately and did not want to turn back.
Sigh.

SSC Prom Night 2005 - Sophistication In Simplicity

Alright ladies and gentlemen. I bet you guys are waiting for this post. =)

Let me just say(to sum it all up)
the prom was IMO.. Great.

I have to say I expected much lower of it.
How wrong I was.

Not any ordinary ballroom kinda prom. The venue was an ex-disco still equipped with the lightings and music facilities. Go figure.

Danced floor was busy whole night. Bwahaha. Nice seeing ppl in their formal attire dancing the night away. Slow dance or fast dance it was great. Well, I had fun. And that is all that matters rite? =)

~

So it was around 8.30pm when I arrived to Zest Club, Sunway. Saw some familiar faces there(old frens mostly) but being Alex, I walked in and started looking for faces I know. Couldn't find any, until someone called my name. It was Chrisanne. -_-
Everyone looked so different. I couldn't even recognize Huey Shyan who was beside Chrisanne the whole time at the stairs.

Me : Eh, where's Huey Shyan
Chrisanne : -_- (points to the left side)
Me : (Omg wtf. So different)

=D Had a little chat with Chrisanne before I called Kelvin to get his ass down there so I can get chopped. I got a sponsored ticket due to much of my 'eh-hem' help and contribution to the Prom. Started walking up the flight of stairs and saw Eileen and Joyce at the balcony kinda thing. Had a quick short chat and entered the "Club".
Woah. Cool atmosphere. Ppl were walking here walking there dressing ever so elegantly. Then saw some familiar faces and approached them to chill a lil while I waited for my frens. Met Adrian Chong(seen him few days back) and Syahirah(seen her 5 years back). Hahaha. It was damn funny reunion. Both left to different places, different times but Adrian knows Syahirah as much as I know her. =/ So we got to chat about the same stuff and all.

Vick. Yea. That Malaysian Idol Finalist. Eliminated one episode before the grand finale. Apparently only lost to Dina by 1% was there too. The Lows had to pick him up from his house and sent him there for soundcheck. Vick also went to Praveen's house to change! Omg. He's damn friendly btw. They chatted with him and all. I also talked to him when he was there. Hahahaha. Told him I was the guy who invited him to perform on Msn Messenger. But he doesn't remember. Gahh! Well at least he knows now.
Really friendly. Jia Xin, a classmate of mine and also a huge fan of Vick got to take a photo with him. I bet she's damn happy. I wanna ask him so many questions! Nuuuuu~

Elvira also performed twice and I think the performers know each other somehow. Through some 'celebrity-kinda-link' I think. I think that wasn't their first time they performed together cause they kinda have I-know-who-you-are face. She had a good voice btw. A powerful one. She was the first one to performed so you could see the malu-malu faces of ppl who really wanted to dance with their dates but couldn't move their feet. Luckily my frens managed to start the dancing thing going by going to the dancefloor.

I was with Nick and the guys when they were annoucing the nominees for Prom King n Prom King. Hahaha. Nazirul, Adrian C, Griffin and Gadafi was nominated for the King while Vivian, Amy, Clarissa and Syahirah was nominated for the Queen award.
Freaking hilarious event. They were asked to do a catwalk thing and answer a question like a beauty paegant kinda thing. Their answers were witty and funny and each had their own respective fanbase supporting them from one part of the club.
I voted for Adrian C and Syahirah after much deliberation(yea rite) :X. I didn't know who Clarissa was but she did look hot from far. XD

Adrian C and Clarissa turned out eventual winners btw. Hooray!

They then had a dance together with the other nominees to officiate their crowning.
I was curious for the nominees on who's gonna grab who but the pairings eventually seemes obvious. Nazirul had a dance with Syahirah, Vivian with Griffin(a pure australian mate btw), Amy with Gadafi. Bwahaha. The rest(including me) joined in after that for a lil while till they announced the officiating was over or something liddat. Talking to each other during dance was fun btw. =)

Reshmonu also came out to perform a lil while after that. Nice to have him for parties. And where did his performing buddies come out from. First he had the Singh guy who sang Hey Waley with him. Then he had 2 drummers dressed in traditional indian costumes with 2 big traditional drum =S for another song. There were some girls who went screaming when he introduced his big hit and all. Famous guy. It pays to be a celebrity I guess. :/ I also slept in Reshmonu's room btw. :D A little more on that later.

So Vick had to leave before Reshmonu performed and the Lows had to sent him somewhere. Nice guy. Hopefully can hang out with him someday. He also said he could get Jaclyn Victor personally if we asked. -_- OMG!!!!! ARGH. No. Regrets. Thx.
So other than Vick shocking Praveen's mum at his house or making Haris(who accompanied Vick for lunch) look famous in Dave's Deli or making me damn happy to talk to a celebrity, he was pretty much an ordinary guy. =/ I was just wondering if stars in other countries do that. Imagine Robbie Williams going to my house to change before he perform or sleeping in Mariah Carey's room. :O
But come to think of it, they don't perform in School proms anyway.

The food wasn't great or much so I'm not gonna blog about it. There was an open bar too which served sky juice for free only. What's that thing about no alcohol kelvin, that guy gave me a menu with all sorts of liquor available!

Vesperntine really know how to work the crowd too. I've seen them perform live like sooooo many times so it was kinda cool. They said something like, "Coolest prom over. No tables and ballrooms just the dancefloor and party all night" Yea yea, i know they may say that to every prom but the reasons for their "coolest prom ever" does make sense. Really good job to the comittee for making this such a success. And you are welcome guys, for thanking me and got me confused for a few secs.

Met old buddies like Janice, Nimi, Nigel etc there. Some changed alot some didn't.
Some obvious changes but oh well. It was nice interacting with them.
As the entertainers finish their act, it was strictly music and party all night from then. All sorts of disco music started pouring in and the lights became dark and only the disco lights were used. Nice atmosphere. There were some obvious party chicks and guys with their crazy dance moves. One girl was dancing like mad and ppl like Kevin, Marcus seemed like party animals.

I also realised how awkward i look dancing. -_-
Hey i'm not used to this kinda thing, okay?

It was a pretty good prom. I know I hadn't been to any to judge or compare but it was fun for me. I heard proms are usually boring and all but this differed so much.
The ppl there was more than I expected but it still didn't meet the minimum requirements. Oh well.

Went to Rainforest after that with Teck Eng, Teck Kuan, Praveen, Huey Shyan, Chrisanne, Haris, Richmond, Kelvin and ADRIAN(i forgot, sorry). Met Allen and Zoe too who were attending Zoe's school prom. Had a sucky beer and I think we were all kinda sad thinking about the seperation and all. Teck Eng I think was extremely emo that night. Bwahaha. Finished my sucky beer before we all seperated.

I didn't go home after that though.
Went to Sunway Hotel with my Haris, Teck Eng,Teck Kuan and Praveen to stay for the night. And yes. I slept in Reshmonu's room!!!! Ok he didn't really stayed the night there. But he was there to rest while he waited to perform. I was damn excited entering his room. When we walked in, the bed was kinda messy. I think he sat there. There was a wet towel(he used it) and the toilet floor had marks. There was actually also a note on the bed with the 3 songs he sang! COOL! There was also an Artword writing Hello or something. And a coffee mug too! In the rubbish bin, there was some food thrown there. Haha. It was pretty much cool thinking about it but I realised it was kinda disgusting moments later. I didn't want to sleep on his bed so i just went to the other. =/

Just arrived home(THX PRAVEEN) few hours back. I slept in my formal attire btw. Photos will be up in the next post or something. I'm waiting to collect the photos from everyone first.
I liked the prom alot.
THANK YOU TO EVERYONE INVOLVED!

and yes, Kelvin. I'm thanking you too. :)

My Final Genting Trip 2005 with Senior 5 Science 1

It has been around 2-3 days and I still miss Genting. :(
Sigh. Hanging around with friends. Lepak-ing till early hours in the morning.
Talking crap.
Sitting rides.
Laughing.
Getting high.
Sharing secrets.

Sigh.
:(

Genting Highlands(6th December 2005-8th December 2005)

I just wrote a freaking long post and my computer went black.
Wtf.
I had to power restart.
And I lost everything.

So I'm lazy now and I'm just gonna sum it all up.

It was pretty good.

Hmm.

I sat the new Flying Coaster first with my friends. Damn good ride. Requires you to lie flat on ur stomach. Super thrilling.



Then I went on the Corkscrew. Good as ever.



Then I went to the Solero Space Shot at night. Omg super chilly and windy. The few seconds u wait for ur fall is the scariest moment. Eep.

The food was either lousy and expensive,or good but expensive there.

The freaking food court in First world sux. Don't ever go there. Since when the best thing there can be the chinese tea. -_-

Hou Mei restaurant's food or something was actually quote good. But never ever buy their fruit juices. Not only it costs RM8 but it's super small, plenty of ice and extremely sour for some reason. zzz.

I was surprised by the rooms too. We had the new block hotel rooms. Really good for its price i think. =)

Btw, at the Genting Skyway just now on the way back, I had a little nostalgic feeling. Like a slight twisted feeling in the heart. I know this would be the final trip we have as ONE class and ppl will be going their seperate ways in the coming future. At the cable car station, I was actually thinking about the time we just arrived. With the same luggage, but moving in different directions carrying different thoughts. I went there with excitement and a thirst for fun; I left with a new set of experience and with much regret. :/

:(
I forgot what else to post. I still liked my original post better.
Sigh.

Oh well. Too tired and lazy to think.
Need to catch up what I missed for the past 3 days.

Day Nine

Day Nine, also the Final Day.

Paper 1 started at 8am and Paper 2 ended at 10.50am.

So my SPM officially ended in the morning of Dec 2nd, 2005.

:/

Est was like any other EST paper. Being the most difficult EST paper i've done, I feel it was still scorable. I wrote a long report though which I hope is accepted.
Now, results on March. Hmm.

After the EST paper, crashed into Praveen's car with Chuang Sing and Nick from school. Had a ride to Kampung Subang to drop Nick's stuff and pick up Michael. The 5 of us then proceeded to SS15 for the cybercafe there. The cybercafe was a bore. My friends played CS while i chatted with friends on MSN and randomly surfed till I decided to join a LAN DotA game. Had some fun till Kelvin and Richmond arrived from home and after a while they decided to shift cafes because that specific cafe does not have Fifa.

So I didn't want to be a leaver and continued with my LAN game. I realised how sucky I am at Bone Fletcher too. -_-

Left to their cafe the moment my game ended and after that when they left, the 7 of us squeezed into Prav's car to go to pyramid.
We had our lunch at the Mamak next to pyramid. -_-

No movies too.
Sienz.

After that, the twins arrived bla bla bla and we drove to Sportsplanet for futsal.
I didn't play as usual so i became their personal belongings jaga-er.
:/

After futsal, the few of us(Vincent, Prav, Me, Kelvin) went to pyramid to drop Sing off and pick Allen up.
We then went to Prav's house for a lil while.

Wtf zzz. I duno what else to type.

Then rite.
Went to Pyramid again for Rainforest.

Had about 3 glasses of Carlsberg.





Uh-huh. Only that size the glass.
It was sick I tell you.
Omg.

I wasn't drunk. Cause If i was I wouldn't be remember-ing anything that happened last night.
But it was horrible. Like lost control of my words and senses. -_-

When we decided to leave, we paid a reasonable amount and my eyes started to get watery/blurry.

I still could walk like a normal person and I tested it myself.
I managed to enter the car and that was when it started.

My whole body suddenly rested on Prav's backseat as Allen was sitting in front.
So I lied down and closed my eyes there.

Suddenly I started talking funny. The funny thing was, I KNOW i was talking funny.
I tried to stop and lessen it but it just wanted to come out.
:/

I also had no energy to sit back up. I just lied there and sang the songs on the radio.
Prav and Allen were talking so softly or something. I think they thought I was drunk. But in fact I wasn't. I was just ..high?

Then we arrived at Allen's house.. Allen told me to get into his house for a while as he wanted me to sober up. I tried getting up but I couldn't. So i just lied there when Prav and Allen walked in the house. After a few mins, I could hear the sisters' voice and Allen opened the car door and pulled me out. I tried standing up but it was hard. My legs were weak and I couldn't stand properly. I even remembered laughing at myself for being so silly.

At that time I stood outside the house for several minutes, wanting to throw up. But I didn't, luckily.
I entered his house and drank some sucky Panadol drink.
That time they were deciding something.

It was funny because I know exactly what I'm doing but I just can't help it.
Anything my mind thought of it just acted out without thinking.
The alcohol must had messed up my mind somehow a little.

I know I went back home after that thanks to Allen and Prav's care and walked to my house. Thankfully, my mum wasn't home yet and my sister opened the door for me.
I walked in told my sister what happened roughly and eyes became so blurry I couldn't see properly. I walked straight to my room took a shower. At that time I was still talking to myself. I know I didn't wanna but words keep on coming out.
I was already like dizzy by that time and my chest was hurting.

I went straight to bed and abandoned my DOTA plans.
Too tired, too dizzy, too blurry.

Couldn't concentrate.

The time then was around..1am?

I woke up at 5.30pm just now.


Zzz.

So SPM over liauz. Genting Trip next.

Staying away from alcohol from now?
Nahhhh.

;)
