so random

When you have an exam to study for and you just cannot seem to study,
you start logging on to youtube.com and search for interesting videos to occupy your time.

and then during my 'intensive' search period, i suddenly thought of something very interesting I saw during the CNY season!

which brought me to this video!




omg. pls watch it again if u have watched it.
or if you haven't, do watch it!
especially if you're malaysian, chinese and hokkien!

so touching and meaningful!!!
it struck the heart a little bit more also because of the fact that it is sooooooo real!!!

I am a liar

I'm in the library now and the computer time shows 8:49AM.
And my class starts at 8AM.

So wat am i doing here? I'm not too sure myself.

Ok. I arrived late. And even if i were to enter the class just now I would had missed half of it. When you miss half of physics, the rest of the period isn't of much use anymore. Besides, I could hardly understand even if I had attended the WHOLE period. Whats more, just half. -_-
And also, the playful questions the teacher put up towards me when I enter late is pretty unwanted.

So basically, it was just not worth it. Zz.

When I was walking from my very-far parking to college just now, I stumbled upon 2 very familiar aunties.
I stopped walking and smiled - natural reaction.

Then said our usual greetings.
And then only realised they were parents of my ex-school/classmates!

Me : Hi!

Aunties : heloo

One aunty stared at me weirdly though.

I asked her, "Do you remember me??"

Confused Aunty : Yeaaa.... you look so different now!

Me : ?_? (hmm)

Other Aunty : You attending the late class izzit?

Me : *silence 2 seconds* (wat late class..) ..Yeah

I gave a like I have to really get going now expression and then we said our byes.


I HAD TO OKAY?
I got a good reputation among parents and I want to keep that.
Even by such means! *devil face*

Grr.

I really got to get going now for my next class.
Ciaoz!

..and oh yea just in case you're wondering, there is no such thing as a late class for my course. :)

It's that time of the month again

Yeap. that period where friends are pissed off at you for some reason, have totally no mood to study when you totally have to, something which u really liked is gone and nothing is just going right.
also the period where some friends decides to become bitchy all of a sudden and when you cant even have some time off by gaming cause your com is totally screwed up.

and you aren't supposed to be gaming too since ur exams are all so near. results pretty vital too.

yay.

once again it all came at once.

at what appropriate time too!

trials starting this friday.

thx world.

i cant even study i dont know why. some test tomorrow.

and it's past midnight already.
i wanted to sleep early to wake up early.

i don't know wat to do now im so lost.

maybe i'll just sleep now.
good idea.
and screw tomorrow's test.

n maybe try to clear some issues of mine.

No. Not anymore

With the deepest of breaths, he clenched his fists tight and walked towards the door. Step by step, he walked, expressionless; but very clearly his eyes were still full of thoughts. He stopped right behind the door and paused. With a small amount of effort, he lifted his head up and stared to his right. It was obvious he was looking at one of the students in the class. His face stood still and he was motionless. But the message was indeed clear. The student looked back up and immediately somehow understood the expression. The man then gave a quick sigh and turned away, his hand reaching for the door and finally exiting the classroom.

One quick stare which had meant so much.
The student suddenly felt like dying.

---

Yes. I am THAT student.
And that man happened to be my physics teacher.
I do not know why but he chose to look at me that day.

His face.
His expression.
His body language.

It says it all.

My physics is a goner.

It was several days after he gave back the results for my latest physics test.
I did badly as expected, one of the worst in the class.

The usual thing happened. He called my name, I went to retrieve my paper.
I stood there, waiting for him to give my paper when the dreaded question came instantly.

"why?..." He had a disappointed smile marked on his face.

"I..will try harder next time." I said with a sigh.

"Next time? U know wat month we're at alreadY or not??" It sounded harsh, but he said it in a very 'playful' manner. But it was clear he still meant wat he was trying to tell me.

"I know.." I forced a weak laugh.

..

Wat is wrong with me.
I don't get it.

Beginning of the year,
I adapted just fine to the subject.
I do not know when i just suddenly got 'lost' in the subject.

Everyone is at pace.
All except me.
No one thinks physics is tough.
No one from the other classes.
Very little from mine.

I've been very busy with tests past few weeks.
May be the reason why I didn't blog.

I still have a test next week.
And my trials begin next friday.
And guess what the subject is? Physics.

I feel so drained I can dive into the ocean and still won't feel the water.
:(

A summary of some happenings which happened would be,

My clan participated in the World Cyber Games and we didn't win.
We didn't get knocked out in the first round either so that's a good thing. :)

My IT replacement teacher left already. It's not like we cared when he was around. But I'll definitely think of him once in a while now that he's gone. Nice man.

I watched Actorlympics in Actor's Studio Bangsar with my family. It resembles Whose Line Is It Anyway but this is more malaysian-based and it's pretty good. Very funny at parts. Can't really think of a part which made me say, "huh?"

Suri Cruise got her pictures finally out. Oh. It has nothing to do with me.

Totally lost in Physics. Wait, that's nothing new. It has come to an extent where there's no difference whether I attend the physics class or not. Because I would not learn anything anyway.

Haris birthday party rocked even with a small group.
That night also confirmed my allergy to alcohol. Which sucks obviously but that may be a good thing.

--

Eh-hem,
so.
trials coming soon.
and the 'rest period' i awaited ever since the start of the year didn't come.
And it looks like it won't either.

U know this 'rest period' where there's this period of time when we just go to classes without having to worry about assignments, tests, quizzes, etc?
Well, that period obviously didn't arrive for me.
It is non existent in my course.

So I took tests after tests, quizzes after quizzes, submitted assignments after assignments..
waiting for this 'period'..
till I reached my trials already..
and there's even a quiz next tuesday before the trials to add salt to the wound.

If you want to consider the time after trials to be my 'rest period', then you're wrong because everyone would be busy worrying about the FINALS and lecturers will stuff revision after revision into ur face till u literally suffocate.

-_-

So no more 'rest period'
and course ending in no time.

Yay for SAM.

zzz.

I hope to study a little earlier for the trials compared to the length of time I study for my other previous examinations this time around.
I KNOW ITS ALREADY QUITE LATE BUT IT IS STILL EARLIER THAN HOW I STUDY LAST TIME.

=/

Okay. I should have covered everything I wanted to say.
I've nothing else to say this time.
:)

A tribute post

I want to blog, i really do. But for now, all things must come to a halt as this post is gonna be a tribute post to the crocrodile hunter, Steve Irwin who passed away after a tragic accident involving a stingray.

Which stung him in the heart, unfortunately.

Very unfortunately I might add, as I found out the death cases involving stingrays are very very low.
And very unfortunatey too for Steve Irwin as it stung right to his heart.

IF you do not know who Steve Irwin is,
you shouldn't even be... having internet access to be able to read this blog. So I'm assuming everyone who reads this knows who that legendary hunter is.

I used to make fun of his australian accent with my friends. In a good way of course. In a way which still showed my high respect towards his courage facing wildlife.

I stopped watching the television for a while now and he didn't come to my mind at all.
But when mentioned, sure know lah.

A worldwide sensation. Even appeared on the Larry King show on CNN.
And some ads in the cinemas too if you remember.

WHAT A FUNNY GUY I THINK I"M GONNA MISS HIM ARGH.

Condolences to his wife, and 2 kids.

I feel so sorry a great icon for the environment-caring is gone.

RIP Steve Irwin!

Like wtf?

I had the experience of my life few hours ago.
I can't believe it happened. To me.
It was not tragic, but it certainly is an experience worth mentioning over and over again.

So at around 10pm, I was gonna depart from my house to Subang to meet Richmond and Nick and whoever who was there.
I already had this slight feeling that something may happen because my grandmother kept advicing me to drive safe and it's not good to go out so late at night.
She mentioned it more than usual but I did not want to think of it that much.
And summore my glasses was being fixed and my mum actually adviced me not to drive as I did not have my glasses.

So anyway, I just drove out.
When I reached the first roundabout,
I started off proper like usual and attempted to eat into the inner lane which I couldn't because there were cars.
So I kept the outer lane and drove slowly.
So fine, one car from the inner lane cut passed me.
Then suddenly,
out of nowhere,
this dark coloured car zoomed very near to the right of my car, honked and braked suddenly.
Instincts will make me brake my car too at that very time as I did not want that car to bang into me.
So I braked.

Then came the split second moment when we decided on who should go first.
As I was about to step on the oil,

*bang*
Yes. not very loud.

I drove off abit, thinking it was some stuff that fell of from my back seat.
I looked into the mirror.
WTF.
A man lying on the floor picking his motorcycle up.
SHit. I did not know wat to do.
My father always advised my siblings and I not to stop when a car bang you from the back as he may be up to no good.
And at that very same roundabout 2 weeks ago,
a motorcycle banged into my mum who was using my car and she had many people surrounding her and threatened her.

So obviously naturally I would pray that none of those things would happen to me.
I drove off slowly, as I knew it would just be a small thing as the bang wasn't even very loud.

Then my worst nightmare came through.
I looked to my left, a car was following me damn fast.
I sped a little, hoping he would give up and would just show his anger.
He didn't.

He came even quicker now.
I looked to my left. It was a chinese man,
a very very angry one.
He shouted some things in cantonese. Something which went like 'I still dared to run?'
The vulgarity came abit later.
Then he rolled down his windows.
He brought out some handcuffs.
WTf. It was damn freaky I tell you.
I was like shit. I am so dead. Pls go away.

Then he drove off alittle faster, attempted to brake in front of me,
he kept asking me to stop.
HOW COULD I?
I did not know who he was.
What if he's some big shot gangster who was gonna kill me.

This time, I stared at him again.
And woah,
for the first time in my life,
a gun was pointed to me.
right towards my car heading for my face.

My right leg immediately shifted to the brakes.
And slowed down my car.

HE stopped right in front,
Came down.

I locked my doors.
He tried to open my door.
Who was he. WAt does he want?

He started shouting in cantonese. He said I dared to hit and run. He was furious. At least he looked like he was.
I remembered he had a gun.
I opened the door. I was nervous.
He asked for my IC and driving license, I gave him both.

Man : YOU HIT AND RUN??? #%@#%@# (cantonese)

Me : sorry! i duno wat happened. maybe we shud turn back (english)

Man : wat you dont know. (english)

HE then took my identity cards with him and asked me to follow his car to the police station in S.Alam nearby.

I called my dad immediately while trailing his car, and told wat happened.
Till then, I still am not sure who he was.

We went back to the roundabout, the motorcyclist was no longer there.

Then we arrived.
Out of panicked and confusion,
I simply parked the car.
He asked me to repark.

But i wasn't scared. No. Not at all.
I had a strong argument.
I know wat happened clearly.
I am not someone who gives in easily.

He started telling the story to the policemen.
A crapshit overly exaggerated story.
Which was not even true.
Not a single bit.

He looked at the side of my door and told the police the motor banged there, causing the dent.
I told him it was caused by my house gate.
But no, the police doesn't listen to you.

One even came nearby and said "pagar mana boleh macam ni"
I felt like slapping his face.

But i did not lose my cool.
I even asked the chinese man," do you even know where the motor hit me?"
He did not reply at first.
I said, "the back. see this marks?"

But he continued with his bullcrap stories.
I said,"Can you let me explain my side of the story?"
Then he said "don't need.i was the witness! I saw"

Saw?
All you saw was a man falling from his motor and me driving off.
And you assumed I hit him off and I ran.

The conversation between me and him in the policestation was pretty pointless.
I kept talking to him, but he had stupid replies.
The more I talked to him, the more confident I felt.
I knew he doesn't know anything about what really happened.
HE just simply assumed.

Then there was once when I decided to remain silent.
He talked all shit and smoked his cigg.
I just crossed my hands and stared away.
Then he asked "do you think you were in the right or wrong??"
I did not reply.
He asked again.
I chose not to reply again.
He then asked again.
Which I finally said,"Whatever I say is gonna be wrong. wat's the point?"
He said something stupid which I had forgotten which prompted me to say,"I don't think I'm in the wrong honestly"

"are you a police?"

"If i'm not a police, why i bring you to balai?"

"can i see ur badge?"

He showed me his card.

"Oh ... you kurang ajar ah.."

"?? like that also kurang ajar?"

"kurang ajar la!"

I seriously didn't know it is against the citizen rights to demand for a proof that a certain someone is a police after he took my identity cards.

He was just waiting there for the motorcyclist to report. It was so obvious. He just wanted someone or something to stand on his side. Because he wasn't even a proper witness.

Anyway,
thinking back about my conversation with him is such a pain in the ass.
Now I understand wat the public sees of the police force. And to think I was at their side once. Bah.

My dad arrived not long after,
which was perfect timing.

Suddenly the police acted all nice and chicken shit in front of my father.
Which sucks obviously.
And my dad miraculously solved everything through talking.

My siblings arrived then and I was sent home.
My dad took the man to teh tarik or something.

I also found out that he apologised to me through my dad.
-_-
I think he eventually realised that,
YOU DONT JUST SIMPLY SCARE PPL OFF BY SHOWING OFF UR HANDCUFFS AND POINT A GUN AT PEOPLE?
Omg. If only I can report him.
SIMPLY MAN.
ARGHH.

And someone bang me from the back I got the right not to stop ok?
You don't need to chase me all the way jus because you assumed I banged into him.

Man.
The way he approached me was all rude.
I don't blame his actions actually,
normal instincts for a policeman.

But the way he approached me I felt was simply too much.
And was very rude too.
He even made fun of my inability to speak chinese as a chinese.

So after all that crap,
I obviously didn't get to go to subang anymore.
Which was pretty unfortunate,
but to be honest,
I wasn't even really affected by what had happened.
Somehow,
I had the courage to speak firmly to the accuser.
Maybe because I know that I was not in the wrong.

Seen those greatest police chase on tv?
I never thought I would be involved in those kinda things!
man.
-_-

I also don't think this is something I would forget very soon,
but wat the heck.

Roundabouts have always sucked in my opinion anyway.


p/s:off to vietnam. brb on tuesday!

Click

Watched Click.
OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG.
Very long never seen such a touching story liau!!! :o

I bet ppl who have not watched the movie must be thinking wtf? and giving me the O.o face.
But.. yes.. it's a comedy.
But a very meaningful storyline behind it too.
:'(

---

Also, several Australian Uni Representatives came to my college to brief students who are interested.
Freaking waste of time wei.
I thought I could get a clearer picture of my future but I got more confused at the end of the day instead.

-_-

Everyone who was there brought their parents along to REGISTER for the unis.
And those who choose to enquire actually have stuff they already planned to ask.
NO ONE WAS LIKE ME OVER THERE.

Ppl there are those who already have what they want in mind and just want more info(s) regarding their course of choice or see which university offers the most appropriate degree for them.

However,
for a clueless boy like me,
I just randomly asked some things which I may or may not do just for the sake of not wasting my time.
Sometimes, I just stand behind some people asking questions just so hopefully I may be able to 'accidentally' pick up something I may be interested in.
Which didn't work obviously. :/

So I began searching through a list of courses just maybe I can suddenly spot one I may be interested in.
But almost all was a possibility.
-_-

I can't be going to the representatives and ask,"helo i got no idea wat i want to do pls help me"
Haih.

The reasons for my clueless future:

1)No specific passion

2)Interested in something that has no good job prospects

3)Low entry requirements for a specific course a turnoff

4)Like the course but realistically too tough for me

5)Too big/severe of a choice to make

6)I can't make decisions

7)Want a course which sounds good/has a good reputation

APIIT Inter College Cyber Games Day 2

So we got home after Day 1, exhausted but freaking happy.
We decided not to train hard that night to ease our mind and relax our body. We planned for one game but in the end we had none.

I crawled to my bed at 8pm and slept till the next morning.
Somehow, the nervousness was all gone.
:D

This time however, instead of taking the trains, I drove there bringing 2 of my teammates along.
Lalala.

When we arrived, we checked the boards and was feeling damn proud cause we were among the 8 out of 25(?) who went through!
Bwahahaha.

People must be fearing us. ><
There were 3 Taylor teams initially but one didn't make it through.

Our first match was against a team from MMU.
And we were the first to play too!
:o

We also lost the coin toss for that game.
Which make us didn't get our prefered side.
And.

We.
Didn't.
Win.
That match.

:(

Dem sad lah. Cause if we had won that match, we would be playing in the semis already. Which is damn comfortable cause we know even if we had lost in the semis we would be able to play for 3rd/4th placing. But we didn't.

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
The....matchups.

Haih.
The MMU team which had beaten us went all the way into the finals, meeting the other Taylor's team.
The Taylors team won that match.

So went there all the way to play a match and go home it's pretty disappointing.
But I guess we can also be super proud that we made it into Day 2.
And the lunch they provided for Day 2 is nicer too~ :D

Quarterfinals. Big semangat booster.

Drove to Kajang after that to chill out at one of my teammate's house.
-___-
Had Kajang satay too which was very.. normal.
I don't get wat's so special.

Oklah. I lost my flow of words again.

APIIT Inter College Cyber Games 2006

Most readers do not know I belong to a clan, a gaming clan.
It's called NtL.
I am too lazy to brief regarding the history of my clan so I'm not doing it.
Click here for the very inactive clan forums. :)

Anyway, the APIIT ICCG 2006 would be the 2nd tournament we were joining. The WCG CyberCafe Preliminaries would be the first, but I don't think that's counted cause we fought the winner at the very first round! Argh. Some cafe sponsored team which I won't bother naming cause no one would know anyway.

So anyway,
-_-
it was a 2 day tournament.
First day was meant for the group stages, whereas the 2nd day the knockout round will commence(which will start from the quarters since there will be 8 groups and only the champions from each group will proceed)

Two teammates and I were so freaking lost on how to get to Bukit Jalil that I think we got conned when we asked for directions on how to take the trains.
-_- freaking bullies.
Explaining about the train journey would be as boring as it was for us boarding the train so I won't bother.

We arrived and met up with the other teammates.
Saw other teams. Look gaya as predicted. Like dem pro.
:(

Bla bla bla delay like hell,
then finally they called the teamleaders out for the draw.

Group A to Group H.
Damn 'kan cheong'.
waited patiently to see Taylor's NtL appear on the board.

Group A.
4 teams announced.
No NtL.

Group B.
Nope.

Group C.
Not yet.

-_-
Got worried after a while. Cause I tot they missed out our registration somehow.
Then they reached the final group, which is group H.

APT WLTD.
IMU.
Taylors Yeo ... something-something.
WTF WHERES TAYLORS NTL.
Then i panicked.

Only then when I realised that the Yeo something something was actually our team.
They didn't know our dem famous clan name. -____- so they just wrote the leader's name.

But we requested them to write the clan name down anyway. :D
Weee~

But wtf la final group. Last team there summore. -_-"
Sure wait dem long.

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
team draw table

To cut things short,
we waited dem freaking long.
And they kept delaying for no apparent reason.
AND I WAS DAMN NERVOUS OK??

my teammates could see that. dem obvious. so nice of them to keep comforting me.
T_T
keep seeing the IMU participants walking here walking there with their IMU t-shirts.
Summore found out they trashed the Apt team.
Omg dem worried.

When it was our turn to play(last team to start a game i think),
already so tired and lost alot of mood. But still must concentrate.
Won the coin toss, picked our prefered side which is scourge,
and..

was
damn
good
our
team.
:D

WE WON!
hahahaha.
After that victory,
we felt dem happy.
like half a body in liau next round.
cause we saw how IMU trashed the other team.

we won that game also lah.
Pretty easy.
very sporting team. wished us luck for the next round.

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
the very lousy-looking group table.

eh.
i got no flow at all.
so i am gonna stop here.

To sum it all up,
we topped our group.
AND QUALIFIED FOR THE QUARTERFINALS OMGZ.
with another taylors representative too.
so got 2 taylor teams in the quarters. :D

I slept like a pig when I got home. Was freaking tired.
But happy. XD

Okay.
Will post about Day 2 of the competition in my next post.
Now no mood. Lousy flow of words.

Gearing up for the future

I'm feeling alot better regarding my future now. Next year, you know.
Because of such high entry requirements set by the University of Melbourne, I must certainly have a second option for just-in-case situations. In fact, I don't even think I can make it there anymore. Sorry Adrian :(

But hey c'mon, even the smart ones in my class are saying it's very difficult to get in there. And you see me there, waving my hands in desperation telling them that I actually want to study there?! I must be nuts. Even just thinking about it. There's no way I can out-do the smarter ppl and if they think they cannot manage to enter that uni, I shouldn't even be worrying abouit it. Which is quite sad, of course.

IN FACT,
i may not even be going overseas next year which i had originally planned. I would probably do twinning if my results aren't satisfactory enough.

Then my friend told me about this another uni in australia. ANU. The Australian National University.

@@

Which is not a bad uni really, but i don't hear much from it somehow. Tell me more about it if you know pls.
Entry requirements slightly lower if compared to melb u.
and pretty 'achievable' too!

~_~

As I type now, I am resting my hands on several books which is pushing my keyboard towards the monitor. O.o
I just want to say that I still have alot of work.
T_T

On an irrelevant note,
I went to the library just now to meet a friend.
As I put my bag down,
this ex-classmate of mine suddenly shouted..

"HEY ALEX!!!"

"oh hi~"

"HEY. WEARING SAME SHIRT FROM YESTERDAY AH?!!!!"

"O.o? NO! shhh why u talking so loud"

"SAME SHIRT LA I REMEMBER ORANGE!"

"NO ITS NOT THE SAME SHIRT! and you are talking very loud! shh"

"I REMEMBER THE COLOR WOR!!! ITS THIS SHIRT"

"No it's not! I wore brownish/green(i dont know which) yesterday! this is orange"

Then I walked off.
-_-

She was speaking on top of her lungs.
For I duno what reason.
T_T
Maybe she just wanted to embarass me for fun.

Or maybe she knew about my state of confusion from the educational aspect and future aspect and just wanted to cheer me up.

Whichever way, it was still embarassing for me when she did that.

A post of complain, again

Ppl must be getting tired of my constants rants regarding the piles of workload I have. Trust me, I'm tired too.

But I just gotta share it.

Having to juggle so many things for this coming few weeks can kill a living creature I tell you.

Especially if the living creature has been slacking for the past 11 years of his life in school. Especially if the living creature's name has the intials of AYCY.

:(
Haihhhhhz.

So I will have a Mathematical Studies Common Test this coming week. The third I think for this subject. And it's gonna cover my worst part of this subject too! Wowwee! Statistics.

I AM QUITE SURE IM THE WEAKEST STUDENT IN MY CLASS FOR MATHS NOW. T_T

And oh yea, I also have some ESL essay to write, and lotsa homework for Specialist Mathematics.
:/

Speaking about the ESL essay,
I was given an interesting topic to write for my essay!

Like,
FINALLY?!

As in,
F-I-N-A-L-L-Y?!?!??!?!

OMG.
AFTER SOOOOOOOOOOOO LONG of waiting.
an interesting topic. Finally.

I am gonna write a sequel/prequel to a movie in 300-400 words. Okay the word limit part is a turn off. but who cares! It's still an interesting topic!

The English subject this year has to be the boring-est ever compared to previous years.
The reason behind it is plain and simple(just like the essay topics).

THE ESSAYS WE ARE REQUIRED TO WRITE ARE SO BLAND AND BORING AND ....FACTUAL.
FACTUAL.

OH MY GOD.

Did I mention factual?

AND NOT FACTUAL TO THE EXTENT OF THINKING OF UR OWN POINTS.
BUT TO GET POINTS FROM 4 ARTICLES AND PUT THEM INTO ONE ESSAY!
Helo?!

super boring to the max.

I heard they changed the syllabus recently.
They USED to have interesting topics to write. But it has changed. Into this.. new...'factual' stuff.
Haih.
:(
It's not like I'm saying I would score better if they give me some narrative to write.
It's just that..
:/
you'll understand.

Like I said,
This week I have a test.
The following week I will sit for a Physics test.
Then the following week I will sit for a Specialist Mathematics test.
Then not soon after I will sit for a spec maths coursework.

It-has-to-be-the-most-demanding-course-available-ever.

But did i regret my decision?
I don't think so.
If you give me the option of reversing time and repicking.

I feel that my decision will still be the same.
This is a short course, and it will lead you to places too.
And to those who choose to remain stubborn and proud, my course DOES NOT only bring me to australia, okay?
Zzz.

I'm going out soon. To actually complete my homework and to revise for the upcoming test.
Omg can you believe it. :D
Eventhough I overslept and screwed my library plans yesterday(sorry kuan), I will still try to complete my work!

Very willing to accept any sort of help and advice!

Hi

Haloooo~

Got totally nothing to say or blog about.

Pizza HUX

11.05am was the time when Richmond, Jonathan, KW and I decided to depart from Taylor's College SJ to Pizza Hut SJ to have our brunch.

We didn't have any original plans before that so we spent some time deciding.
It went something like:

Richmond: Eat where? Success ar? Hehehehhe

Jonathan: Market.

Richmond and Alex: Dowan market larrr!

Richmond: Secret Recipe okay?

Jonathan and KW: (blindly) okay.

Alex: Wtf? No! Dont be stupid okay. everytime want to go places like secret recipe.. starbucks to eat. Those places arent even places which have food as their top income.

Ok i forgot what happened after that.
But we decided to go to PIZZA HUT instead.
I doubt it was my idea. I just agreed (Stupid KW better change that statement in ur blog).

So anyway, on the way there, left our bags in KW car.
When we got there,
there was NOT A SINGLE waiter/waitress standing downstairs as usual waiting to serve us or direct us upstairs like they used to.
We didn't take much notice and just walked up ourselves and got a place for ourselves.

WAITED soooooooo long for someone to come serve our table. Jon couldn't wait so he walked to the counter but he realised he had to queue behind some girls doing something. -_-"

WAT IS THIS LA. LOUSY SERVICE.

So I walked up instead and called the waitress. SHE ASKED ME TO WAIT. I WAS LIKE WAT???????????? I ALREADY KNOW WAT SET I WANT TO ORDER U DONT NEED COME TO MY TABLE LA. BUT SHE JUST DID!

"Saya sudah tahu apa nak order tak payah pergi sana"
I forgot what she said but she just gave me a stupid smile and walked towards my table.
-_-"

SO I STAND UP FOR WAT? JSUT TO CALL YOU OVER AR?
ARGh. dem pissed.

I wanted to jaga my muka so I continued standing at my table while I ordered the exact same set. and the worst thing was, I told her the freaking set and she bloody STILL TOOK A MENU AND SHOWED IT TO US. SHE WASTED AT LEAST 10 SECS DOING THAT. EVEN IF SHE WAS JUST CONFIRMING, SHE SHOULD JUST USE THOSE PAPER PROMOTION THING AT OUR TABLES RITE. NO NEED WALK SO FAR AWAY. Argh.

Thats not the worst thing yet.
So we took the soup ourselves.

Richmond asked the same waitress for the garlic bread to be served faster cause he wanted it with the soup.
YOU KNOW WAT WAS HER REPLY?
"sabar, dik"
SABAR YOUR DIK LA!

Still can give us that stupid smile.
But we didn't care la. Since we not those customers who make a big hassle out of things.
So we talked.
and talked.

15 mins.
No pizza yet.

then we continued talking.
and talked.

30 mins.

a pizza came up,
but it went to the other table.

45 mins.
the same pizza we ordered came.
the stupid thing was,

it went to the table behind us,
WHO CAME LATER?????

JUST BECAUSE THEY HAVE GIRLS IN THAT TABLE?? IZZIT?

SUMMORE U KNOW WAT I HEARD FROM THE WAITER?

"sorry ah.. potong salah.. boleh tak" or something.
WAT U MEAN BY POTONG SALAH.

I THINK ITS BECAUSE WE ORDERED THE NEW CHEESY BITES THING THE FUNNY SHAPE AND THE TABLE BEHIND DIDNT AND THE WAITER SENT IT TO THEM SO HE SAID POTONG SALAH BUT IT ACTUALLY BELONGED TO US>?????
AH?!!!?$$@$

Then we asked the waitress. So long we waited.

Jon had to go then. Since it was already an hour. He had some lab session. His classmates labcoat was with him.
So sad. All he ate was the soup and the garlic bread.

Watever la.
I suddenly lost the mood to blog.

To sum the rest of the story up,
the pizza came at 12:05pm.
My class started already.
All of us had our share except Jon.
KW 'tapau-ed' for Jon but I heard he didn't want it.
I paid extra for no reason(give me back richmond)

AND THE WAITRESS WHO SERVED US DIDNT EVEN SAY SORRY.
I told KW and Rich to complain.
I would really rreally want to complain I swear. There's nothing to be scared.
But i was really rushing.
Like heck.
I had some essay practice.
Gah.

Go see KW pizza post for info about the complain.

And oh yea.
the stupid pepsi tasted funny.
And everything was salty too.
Im so thirsty now.

The only thing that was nice was the crust.
Mmm.

But not going there for quite some time now.
NO WAY.

#^#^$^#$^@!#$!@

Hmm.
I want to complain about that malay waitress.


Shit.
Her smile stuck in my head now.

Must......stick....pizza..on...her...face.

Screwed

No one told me college life was this stressful.
No one ever did.

-_-

And to think that it is far more important than whatever you achieve in high school is just the last straw.

My course isn't meant for ppl like me. No. It definitely isn't.

It's meant for people who actually can work. Who actually is hardworking or simply isn't lazy.

Which is so totally opposite from what I am.

I have handed up my assignments on time and all but so what? My results are stinking like a pile of shit.

I thought I had chosen the perfect set of subjects for me but I may have just screwed myself over.

That set.. is like, the perfect set. A little bit of this a little bit of that. Perfect for me.

But who did I actually think I was?
A boy who passed his Additional Mathematics in Form 5 only once out of 6 times.
A boy who thought he wasn't weak in mathematics but just unlucky as he could understand most of the stuff tought.

Has the boy gotten out of his mind?
TO ACTUALLY TAKE A SUBJECT CALLED :

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

Yr 12 for South Australian syllabus.

Note the word "specialist"

From dictionary.com:
specialist
-an expert who is devoted to one occupation or branch of learning
-One who is devoted to a particular occupation or branch of study or research


eh, hello alex of 7 months ago.
To take specialist maths is also basically to mean that you are actually SPECIALISING in MATHEMATICS.

WHICH IS SO NOT MY FORTE?!

My forte would be.. let's see, something to do with communication.. presentation.. or language basically. Or something fun like.. "design an advertisement banner/poster!"
:/

Mathematics.
I don't hate it.
It's just not my kinda thing.

Hey i get the fun part of it and all.. and the logical part of it.
I get why some ppl are crazy over it.
And why some ppl just got the naturally grasp of the subject.

But it's not my strong point.
I hate to admit this but.. I actually think I suck in Maths.
:(
And I thought I was good.
Just 'unlucky'.

My mind works far too slow to process these numbers and funny algebraic stuff in my head.
=(

My other subjects for my current course are okay.

On a totally different and irrelevant note,
I had this for lunch on Tuesday!

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

It's some.. wanton noodles garlic sauce with honey bbq chicken thing.

!!!
Nice. But quite costly.

Why the heck did I post that picture up.

I have no idea.

Back to my college life.
Which had been giving me some serious eyebags.
and a very tired face.

And oh yea.
I try so very hard to pay attention during class for specialist maths.
Because if you miss 1 minute of the class, the whole of the next hr is basically pointless cause you wouldn't understand anything.
I may be exaggerating but I dont care.

So anyway,
I will try my best to concentrate and understand everything that was being tought.
And each time I force myself,
I get a headache.
A painful one.
:(

Sometimes I like to feel the pain.. like some sign telling me that my brain is finally working after all these years.
But sometimes I feel it's just pointless and annoying.
I LIKE MATHS OKAY.
And my lecturer doesn't really make it any easier for me.
With her constant naggings and pressure.
SHE REALLY EXPECTS HER STUDENTS TO STUDY 24/7!!!!
JUST BECAUSE I THINK SHE WAS LIKE THAT LAST TIME DURING HER STUDY DAYS,
NOT EVERYONE CAN LAH~

Ok i wasted so much time blogging.
When I should be resting now until I am called up
for the semi-final 2.

gdnite world.

World Cup 2006

Okay. So now all my favourites are officially out.
I supported Ivory Coast and Australia and a little bit of England since the tournament began.
But Ivory Coast crashed out in the group stages eventhough they were very convincing indeed.

So after that I fully focused on Australia.
Which CONTROVERSIALLY(sp) THEY WERE UNLUCKLILY KNOCKED OUT.

Then I supported England.
Which.
Just hours ago,
lost in penalties.

But there was one team which had me build my passion towards to as the last 16 progressed..
It was..
France.

Omg with Henry, and the damn chun Zidane and many many more.
I was hoping they would somehow upset the Brazilians or I will never have a favourite ever again as I am seeming to be putting a curse on my favourites.
AND IT HAPPENED!

:o

I mean.
France WON!
Damn convincing summore. Deserved it.

Not that I hate Brazil..
But,
It's just that I support France.

It's 5:44am now and I'm tired.
I can't seem to get a proper sentence constructed properly.

Nice semis.

Germany vs Italy

France vs Portugal(go france)


=D

B18

It's true.
The class B18 in Taylor's College SJ,
there's something hypnotizing about it.

seriously.

i never once entered that class for a class and completed it wide awake.
i'll for sure doze off for some reason.

it's a class which makes everyone feel like sleeping.

i dunno if it's just the order of subjects for that day but still!

noooooooooooooo.


the horror.

the horrorrr..

If you have some serious eyebags, I'm afraid you are starting to look like me.

With total no relevance to the title and my previous post in this blog,


I will not make fun of people's driving anymore.

It's bothering me

The statement, 'what goes around, comes around.'

Is it even,
true?

I know those with a strong religious mind will believe in that strongly. But being a not so religious person, I beg to differ.

If I put glue on my friend's chair, will I get gum on my shoes sometime not long after?

Those instances when something bad actually happened when you did something bad, are all I believe, coincidences.

One of the reasons would be,
I can see many successful ppl who aren't that nice of a person if you get to know him or her. I also see many nice, kind, (whatever positive adjective u can find) people living miserably and not as happily as the others.

I believe having this 'karma' belief is mostly what a mastermind has invented ages ago. When something bad happens, everyone looks for something to blame. And when the fingers are pointed, it normally ends unhappily. Having no one to blame but themselves actually not only prevents any misunderstandings but also makes everyone try their very best to NOT do anything evil (insert evil smiley here) as they do not want anything to happen unto them.
So at the end of the day, everyone becomes nice.


O.o


like so wtf rite?
philosopher alex.

But I have to agree it may be true to some extent too.
Newton's theory of action = reaction is a weird argument though I feel.
What meant for force has become such an overused theory and simply put in any possible scenarios. :/

I'm a damn nice person la.
I don't think just because I jokingly punch a friend on the shoulder makes me hit by a huge boulder at a random construction site the next day.

I also don't think just because I happily joined in a crowd insulting a person leaves me having no one to talk to the following week or something.

Because if it's true, then who is responsible for these 'counter attacks'?
God?
Nature?
Myself?

Some may argue that none of the above makes sense but that we should do unto others what you want others to do unto you because,
Eg :- you tell X something bad about Y. Y heard about it. Ur reputation gets tarnished. Everyone found out you talked bad about Y. No one likes you now.

something like that.
I cannot explain.

But to explain it in terms of religion or karma just seem so mind boggling for me.

Haih.
I'm such a confused kid.

Also,
technology is evil.
Communication through technology should never be invented.
Simply because the other party does not know the tone of voice you are giving out when you deliver a message.
As simple as that.

Wat meant as a compliment can look as an insult.
Wat meant as sarcasm can be seen as a death threat.

o.O

Sad la the world today.
Don't so sensitive pls!
Everyone!

another thing,
I want to clear something up.
Just because,
I said something bad about you, showed my temper, or become angry at you for some reason,
all I want you to know is.
It doesn't last. Not at all.
As much as I want it to, it doesn't happen unfortunately. :(

However, it does not mean you should be taking advantage of it.
Tx.

So if you see me talking to you the next day after an argument or something,
just know that I'm sincere!
Not angry anymore. Or just can't be.
-.-

My life's so messed up I'm actually shocked there are people jealous of me [you know who u are, ;)]

Hehe. And thats not a perasan statement okay?

Lala.

And yea,
some driving questions I would like the answers to:

1)You are reversing straight without any turn then you want to turn left, meaning the back of your car will move towards the right. When you turn, do the left side of ur car 'makan' any more space than what it originally 'makan-ed'? Like move to the left more abit. Does it?

2)Do you think the left side mirror is not as easy to see as the other 2 mirrors?

3)Agree with estimation of cars distance from the mirrors is not something you get immediately when you first started driving?

4)Parking for the first few weeks/months is not as easy as you thought it was?

5)That it sucks to be involved in an accident?


Tx for the answers.
I'll be glad to hear em anywhere. MSN preferably. :)
