Shopping Spree + Cooking

Since the food in campus is seriously yucky and expensive, my housemates and I decided to take the weekly shuttle service to Tesco to buy raw food to cook some meals. So, 3 girls happily went to Tesco with 1 ultimate target behind-- prepare to food for a week!

After merely 1.5 hours, we managed to get salt, oil, oyster sauce, tomyam stock, chicken thigh, kubis, siew pak choy, carrots, eggs, bread, rice, onion, garlic, apples, mihun, meesua, milk, pepper, pan set, soy sauce, tauge, frozen buns, plates, butter, chocolate spread, tuna fish, spaghetti, sauce, mixed veggie for fried rice, cheese, kitchen cloths, sesame oil, pillow, and the list goes on..

3 girls with so many stuff, so it was pretty tiring to board the bus.. Sin Lee nearly lose balance n fall as she board the bus, haha... Finally we got home! These are what we have bought!
We spent less than 1 hour to cook, eat and clean up.. Our 1st self-prepared meal in EduSquare-- Tadah!! Fried Bee Hoon.. Super nice weh!! This pot fed 4 girls.. costs us less than RM1 each.. haha.. So happy!

My New Squatting Place-- EduSquare!

I am finally in EduSquare, my off-campus accomodation in University of Nottingham! It is a 2-storey bungalow with about 14 single rooms, with ensuite bathroom. I am sharing bathroom with another girl. So far there are 9 girls in my house already, 7 from Malaysia, 1 from China and 1 fro m UK.
I am very satisfied with this place! There are bed with thick mattress, study table, wardrobe, ceiling fan, dressing table and air-conditioner at seperate charge in my room. Microwave ovens, stove, fridges, rice cookers, kettles are available in kitchen. Sofa set and LCD TV are also given in living room. There are even dining tables and chairs.. Cool!
Guards are always on duty, just to guard about 10 houses in my area.. haha.. so nice right.. On Day1, i even asked the guard to kill a gigantic spider in my room!

My house is just 10mins walk from the campus, but there are no trees around the area, so basically I will be grilled under the hot sun as i walk.. One more problem here is.. THERE IS NO FIXED PHONE LINE! So.. i wonder if i can subscribe to Streamyx or any other stable and fast internet service at reasonable price.

There is shuttle bus service that goes around campus, EduSquare, Semenyoh Town, Kajang Town and all the wya to Kajang KTM. I m pretty satisfied with the service so far. There is no hawker stalls, mamak, or restaurant within walking distance. So, the only choice i hv nearby is cafe in campus which serves expensive and yucky food... Urgh.. but seemed like there is catering service at reasonable price. Hopefully it s good, so that i will still b chubby.. haha..

我希望。。

要到大学报到了,终于啊!
这次感觉上比去新加坡还要陌生,虽然说我还是在马来西亚,但是我熟悉的是马来西亚南马小镇,和新加坡!吉隆坡对我来说比新加坡还要“外国”!
说我完全不害怕是假的,我还是怕不能和同学融洽相处,怕住的环境不好,怕课业太繁重, 生活苦闷bla bla bla...
怕也没用。。当初我也是一个人到新加坡去念书,第一天在宿舍想要讨一条被单都不敢,两年后还不是混得好好的,还对宿舍依依不舍呢!

我希望接下来的大学日子里:
1。课业很有趣
2。能参加我喜欢的课外活动
3。平平安安!吉隆坡的治安让我怕怕!
4。遇到好的屋友
5。衣食住行都方便(internet 也超级重要!)
6。考到好成绩!不要在及格和不及格之间徘徊!(当然,一定要及格!)

理想的大学。。

9月16日也要到了,终于要结束我超级长的“假期”,到Universtity of Nottingham去开学啦!
从5岁开始,我生活就不曾有过超过2。5月的假期,算一算我可是10个月没上到课了啦!(我指的是我听课老师讲课,我当中学老师的那段上课时间不算!)

前几天去了新加坡,到朋友在NTU和NUS的宿舍里去tumpang。
看了很多很多的房间,还上了一个3个小时的forensic science lecture。
加上身边的朋友真的几乎全部都已经上大学了,可以很光荣的说“我今年大一!”,我开始向往大学生活了,虽然朋友都说大学生不简单,当初初级学院是老师说的什么“熬过A level上大学就简单多了”都是骗人的。。
我理想的大学啊。。就是offer我喜欢的科系,讲师有趣上课不会让我打瞌睡,内容可以让我这大头里面的小脑了解并知道怎么运用,考试要合理的难不要像JC时的考试让我一点成就感都没有,听到考试都没有想要奋斗的意愿,因为反正怎样靠都是一样不会A,同学相亲相爱,课外活动多姿多彩可以学到很多课外技能可是不要有政治,校园干净美丽,学费不要贵到让我觉得考不到超级好成绩会对不起父母。。。

好像不可能有这样的大学。
忽然,好怀念幼稚园的相亲相爱,隔壁的男同学在被我弄哭后还会给我粘土玩;
好像回到小学上永远都有趣的课,轻松的考全班前5名;
中学时课外活动的欢声笑语和学到的技能让我很庆幸自己曾经这么活跃。。。

大学生涯,希望你也能让我在好多好多年以后,让我有上多一次大学考多一个学位的冲动!

不知所云

下了整个下午的雨。
朋友放了我飞机,又得延迟去新加坡。
明天,一定要去。

要看奥运闭幕还是辩论总决赛?
开始向为什么眼睛是长在一起的,不能够装个extension让我两边都看吗?

假期要去A还是B?
为什么raya的机票车票要这么贵?
开始有点讨厌每个人都懂demand supply影响price的道理。

最近很懒惰写blog,即使我算是最空闲的人了。。。

无聊+失业+等待=

Olympics

(I m too lazy to blog about my Bali trip anymore.. I shall just upload somemore pics, and let the pics speak for me..)


Beijing Olympics's grand opening ceremony made Chinese all over the world proud. I doubt any other country is able to produce such a spectacular program. Perfectly coordinated performers, amazingly beautiful fireworks, creative props, artistic programs, all these remind us that China is rising, progressing, and will be leading the world. However, some reports claim that the firework effect was faked, etc etc~ I wonder whether those claims are credible, but this particular report.. saddens me..

http://sports.yahoo.com/olympics/beijing/blog/fourth_place_medal/post/The-Chinese-pulled-a-Milli-Vanilli-during-the-Op?urn=oly,100162

The cute girl who performed "Hymn to the Motherland" was actually not the original singer of the pre-recorded tape! Another girl of similar age sang it!
As my family and I were watching the opening ceremony, we were commenting that the girl is so so so cute, so "China", cooperative, and so lucky to be chosen to sing the song. Never did we ever consider that she was chosen just because she is cuter and more presentable than the original singer, while the original singer who has wonderful voice was hidden behind the scene. How does the "original girl" accept the fact that she actually sings for Olympics, but the world will recognise another girl to be the singer? And accept the fact that this happened largely due to her buck teeth? I cant imagine how is this event going to hurt her, affect her confidence? And maybe even ruin her life? What message is this incident sending?

"You can be talented, you can be hardworking, but if you do not have the look, sorry..."

Is this the image that the Chinese want to potray?

Bali Trip 2

After dinner, Denny brought us to buy Terang Bulan. It is actually Bali version of Apam Balik. Basically it s pancake with fillings. We bought Terang Bulan with cheese and chocolate. IT TASTED REALLY WONDERFUL! Chocolate was sweet while cheesy was salty n fragrant... there were 2 different Terang Bulan-thick and thin. According to Denny, Holland Terang Bulan is the best. Apparently in Bali, piracy is a common crime too. We saw Roland, Polland, and many other similar brand!!

The next day, we went to see the making of Batik and silver. We also visited paintings shop.
Traditional Bali paintings are very complicated.. I spent a long time looking at this painting...

Then, we went Kintamani. It is a volcano area. The weather there was good as it was a bit chilly at noon.The picturesque scenery accompanied us for buffet lunch... It was a shame that we didnt get to go near to the volcano. Hopefully there will be a chance for me to go there again! When we were going to leave the place, hawkers selling souvenirs, drawing temporary tattoo kept on pestering us~~~ They just crowded around us, shouting "Tiga lima untiuk semua" etc~ We had no choice but to patronize a bit..
On our way down from Kintamani, there were many rice fields along the road. Bali paddy field is different with what we usually see in Kedah. As the rice fields are planted on hill, farmers had to make them into staircase-like columns so that water can be retained in the columns.

Bali Trip!

Date: 3-9 July
Travel Partners: Katak (Xing Xian), Janice, Siao Min(dunno how to spell), Edwin, Gary
Host: DENNY!!-- Shella's bro!
Travel Mode: AirAsia, Rented Car v driver, Denny's car (Denny or his driver drove)
Budget: RM1000--2,800,000 rupiah (wah wah wah sounds so RICH!!) + RM640 of airfare

Day 0

Took Mayang Sari from Pontian to Pudu. Then, took train Sri Petaling where WeiKen fetched me to 1Utama (thanks, weiken!) There, I met Joanna who happened to be shopping there. Had a small small "dilemma" to choose movie - at the end gals won! watched Incredible Hulk. Then, XueFen fetched me to her house in Damansara. Thanks Xuefen! Stayed a night at her place.

Day1

Woke up super early to avoid jam. Urgh.. 1st time i ever took KL public transport at peak hour. It was really challenging to travel with big luggages. I found that KL publich transport is not quite friendly to handicapped ppl-- there were many staircases, some places have no lift. Had a hard time carrying my luggages and squeezing into the sardine cans..

Finally I reached KL sentral, where i met Katak n his friend. Siao Min. Took AirAsia bus to LCCT, slept like a pig on bus cos i din sleep much the night before-- so, i din know how was the route like, n how much time did it take. Met Katak's other frens-- Edwin, Janice and Gary before we checked in and hv breakfast. Finally, we board the plane-- here we come, Bali!

Tried to take some pictures when i was walkking towards the plane as requested by Thermis, but the guards there stopped me =(

Slept throughout the journey, after3 hours, Tadah! We reached Denpasar Airport!


Had a long time at imigration.. very slow ar.. Finally we met Denny and Hansel who were there to pick us up. Reaching Denny's house, I realised how rich can Indon chinese be-- his house doesnt look like a house, but rather, a musuem or temple or some tourist attractions!
Had dinner by the beach outside Discovery Mall at Kuta.. a beautiful beach with breeze and band

Terbalik lah dude~

Case1:
Went shopping with a friend. He tried a shirt, satisfied, proceed to the cashier while I was looking around. Suddenly, he handed me his $50 note and asked me to pay for him. Asking him why, he said he would tell me later. I paid for him, wondering what's going on.. Don't tell me the lady at the cashier is his old flame?

After paying, we walked for about 10m, i asked him again.
Him: Look at my shirt
(after 2 secs, i burst in laughter)
Oh my god~~ this blur fella wore his shirt inside out!
Not only that, the label was right in front also!!
Super~~ Duper~~~ FUNNY!!!
Quietly, he moved to a fitting room, wore the shirt in the correct way..


Case2:
My friend, told me his story...
"At work, after excercising, i took off my shirt since i was sweating heavily, as usual. Then my watchroom guy pressed the secondary alarm, and got us into alert. so i ran up my vehicle w/o my shirt on...in a rush, i juz put on my shirt in d vehicle as we moved towards the runway. After problem solved, we went back, got down, and my boss told me later tt i wore my shirt wrong way round... ie inside out"

WAHAHA.. another big laugh for me!

Guys, PLEASE employ the skill that ur mama taught u when u were 3-year-old. It is quite important, ok??
Anyway, thanks for giving me some laughter!

Sumptous Lunch!

Few days ago, my colleagues and I went for staff lunch, which means ALL colleagues and some taw-kays ( oh well not really taw kay, cos it s a church, basically there is no boss..)
I ordered grilled tuna as appetizer, lamb shank as main course, n dark-choc cake as dessert.. The tuna was really fresh, the outer layer was lightly grilled to give it a crispy texture while the inner part of the flesh was totally raw- it s so "wow"~! I was too happy with it, and~ I forgot to take picture

Next, it is the main course-- tadah! Lamb Shank with baby spinach!


It is a big serving.. Pastor Fred who ordered the same dish said, "oh.. i dont think you can finish it.." "well.. you just wait and see.."

To his surprise, i MANAGED to finish it! Y not? It s so so so delicious that I hope I have a bigger stomach so that it can rock and roll happily and comfortably.. haha..

Next, my favourite dish of all-- dessert!
The moment i saw it.. hehe.. i can feel the fireworks above my head dy.. it looks so yummy! The moment I poked the choc cake, the molten chocs flowed out.. slowly merged with the raspberry jem.. Although i was quite full already, but the dessert simply made my stomach expand suddenly! The chilly ice-cream plus the warm choc cake.. I felt I was in the heaven~~

The best thing was, I DID NOT PAY A SINGLE CENT!
The weekday lunch cost about $24 per person, without tax, which is quite reasonable given such a nice ambience in that restaurant-- Mexican leisure style. But this meal, could cost me more that $70+++ at night!!
Hoho.. the best meal I ever had in Singapore actually....

阴影

你知道要怎样才能让阴影消失无踪吗?
很简单,只要面向光亮,阴影就会被抛在脑后了

其实,有光亮的地方就一定有阴影。想要摆脱它?除非你去一个没有一丝光亮的地方!
人生就是这样,有欢喜有悲伤。不开心的就别想太多,往好的方面看,世界就会美好很多
感情,未免不是这样呢?当你决定背对阳光,往坏的方面想时,你眼前就只有阴影,忽略了造成阴影的光芒。。。

面向阳光,往开心的地方想,所有的不快乐就只是一个跟屁虫而已,绝对称不上是绊脚石!

Pretty vs Ugly

I watched an interesting TV program just now, called Brainiac
In the show, all kinds of experiment are done. You get to test which smell attracts women the most: pheromone, sweat or cologne; how much impact will a big big cloud cause if it turns to rain all at one go etc
There is this experiment: How much help would a pretty gal get, compared to an ugly gal..
hoho.. a bit cruel..
So they let 1 pretty gal drag a heavy luggage up the stairs 1st
Almost all men who see her doing that alone offered to help
Next, the ugly gal tried her luck
But, NOBODY OFFERED TO HELP HER AT ALL!!
urgh... men r so realistic! i thought at least a few people would lend her a helping hand, but none did that! so bad..
no wonder katak asked me to take k of myself when i go bali v his gang-- cos he NEEDS to take care of the pretty friends but not his buddy-- me
fine..
fine...
fine....

haiz.. i m thinking..
when i drag my heavy luggage from public transport to my new uni, will some1 help me?
urgh..
i better do more weight training...

写给朋友们

朋友:

昨晚,又去了我们的老地方喝茶聊天。这次我们真的是各奔东西了,恭喜你们都拿到满意的大学和科系,2年的努力没有白费!聊着聊着,知道大家真的是劳燕分飞,有的去槟城,有的拿到吉兰丹,有的新加坡,吉隆坡的也是散布在各个校园,想都知道在首都这么乱的交通下,大家见面的机会一定是少只有少的。吟说,这次不一样了哦!因为之前还有一大票人在家乡念书,我一回去肯定都还会有朋友随时可以出来聊天叙旧。现在,应该要等到农历新年还是什么公共假期才会碰头吧?连学校假期都很一样了呢。。。见面时,不知道还会不会像现在一样有聊不完的话题,讲不完的笑话?还是,会变成陌生,甚至腼腆起来的呢?不要啊~

要到陌生的地方去念书,心里是兴奋,忐忑,还是不舍?都有吧?呵呵,2年前我刚离开家里来新加坡念书时,因为想家,压力,疲累而常常躲在被窝里独自哭泣~你们应该也会经过这些吧?想哭的话就哭!反正眼泪不用钱。。(没有啦。。只是,哭过后又可以勇敢地站起来了!)要多交朋友哦!在家靠父母,出外靠朋友!有朋友的话,至少哭泣的时候会有人为你递上纸巾,感情丰富一点的还会陪你一起哭咧。。

象牙塔的生活到底是怎样的呢?会不会比form six更难?课外活动会不会多姿多彩?宿舍会不会让你有家的感觉?要努力努力努力哦!等大家戴上四方帽后我们可以合成成一张毕业照!反正自从幼稚园后我就没有拍过毕业照了,sad..大家记得记得要update我你们的生活哦!我建议,大家都写blog吧!这样我们就不会miss掉频率了!

这个星期念国立大专的你就要报到了!准备好了吗?昂首向锦绣前程迈进吧!珍重!

年轻是我的护照,好奇心是我的入门票!

收拾旧东西时发现自己2年的JC生涯竟然是这么忙碌的。。月历上面密密麻麻的塞满了各个要记得的事情--什么NAPFA啊class test, common test考哪里,SPA--不是享受的那种,是school practical assessment要背的东西, concert proposal deadline, Service learning program proposal, project work的每一个deadline,彩排,outing,连假期都被one-to-one consultation和extra lecture填满。。我是怎么熬过来的?

回想从考完A level到现在我“干了什么好事”--呵呵,和别人比较起来我应该还算蛮“活跃”的
第一次搭AirAsia,去槟城玩,去英国找姐姐,去muar国婷家,去tampin和melaka找婉欣,去雪芬家,去Gopeng露营爬山洞划船waterfall abseiling,当了2个多月的中学老师(还同时教华文和科学咧~~),在教会工作,看了4个season的Gray's Anatomy,下个月还要去bali...哇!好像怕自己上了大学后就没时间玩这样拼命享受...

妈妈好像很羡慕我,说自己生活很无聊,放工后就是做家务看电视,可是却找不到朋友还有活力去参加各种活动。

忽然觉得,年轻是我的护照,好奇心是我的入门票!
很多事情我都想试一试,很多地方我都想去看一看!
这样的个性。。。到底适不适合当药剂师呢?

今天


5月20号。。
呵呵。。记得去年的这一天,国婷说5月20代表我爱你--听起来有点同性恋 
以后如果我生孩子可以选日期的话就选在5月20日
多浪漫。。
(ok我今天发花痴,不要炸我。。。)

昨天看了《蓝色大门》这部电影
里头的女生A暗恋一个男生,喜欢到去收集着男声用过的东西--矿泉水瓶,运动鞋,周记等杂物
哇,暗恋都这么正经八百。。
忽然觉得自己好像没有年轻过~我暗恋人从来就没有做这些的。。

女主角是同性恋。一个喜欢上自己闺中秘友的同性恋
她对喜欢她的男生说,你十七岁在烦恼自己升不升得上大学,尿尿有没有呈直线,真幸福。。。
说的也是。17岁本来就应该烦这些,如果像女主角一样烦自己的性取向还真的是有得烦。。

19岁,是不是会烦得比较多?

会哭的小孩有糖吃

觉得“会哭的小孩有糖吃”这句话很有道理
很多时候,你不说不闹,人家都不知道你要什么
很想要的东西就应该说出来,去争取
因为除了过新年,很少大人会主动给小孩汽水零食糖果的

有时,哭了闹了大人还是不给,就是因为他们觉得那些东西对你不好
这样就算了,反正是有理由的,我认了
但是我的原则是如果你不给我糖果,请告诉我为什么,不然我会一直闹闹闹~~~

最怕的就是,你什么都不说,还装成一副不在意的模样,那你完了
因为当糖不够派时,你第一个壮烈牺牲。。。
不然就是,反正你都不要,我自己吃了。。

到时你才哭也没用了。

Bar or Bus?










These pics r taken when i took a bus from NUS to Dunearn Road few days ago. WOW! It looks really like a bar! The seats r quite cosy, but I wonder what is the purpose of setting the table since "eating or drinking is not allow in bus for the comfort of all passenger" The number of seats in the bus s quite limited too, but i guess this route has very little passenger gua..


Then, i m a bit surprised by this!

I can actually download the songs played in the bus~ cool!
However, recently I m quite fed up by the public transport. Since taxi fare increased, the number of passengers taking bus n mrt increased significantly. Now i m a typically working "Adult"now, so i travel during peak hours.. urgh.. so crampy, smelly....
Hopefully the frequency of buses n MRT can increase, but not the fare pls cos adult fare s scary!

Muar+Tampin+Melaka Trip




Few weekends ago, i had a gathering v wanxin leyying and guoting.. yeah they r my good frens i met in singapore! That time, I was in Pontian, Guoting in Muar, Wanxin in Tampin n Leyying in Singapore.. n we din meet up for quite a while dy.. so we decided to hv a gathering!!

Since pontian s a bit far from tampin, i went Muar to meet u guoting 1st..
Muar.. i went there for a few times when i was active in student reporter. So when i had to wait for guoting for a few hours in muar town, i had a good time "loitering"!! At night, went to guoting's house.. haha her house was full of females! i din c any male at all (cos her bro wasnt home yet by the time i went to sleep)

The following day, we were drove to Tampin. Wanxin was the one who came to pick us up! Surprise! After lunch at her place, we went A Famosa to see animals 1st while wanxin went to pick up leyying..
DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT IS THIS?








Then, we headed to the water world!! wow it s so fun!!! the most memorable game is "High Speed"-- something like a slide where player slides down from abt 4 storey's height. It was quite 'OH MY GOD" cos i din even get to shout-- not only because it s quite scary, but the water splash nearly chocked me also!

After exciting games, we took our time to enjoy in the wave pool.

After all those nonsense, we went back home to shower, then dinner.. At 12am, we r supposed to sleep already right? NO!! We went out for tampin's famous SATAY!!! the succulent pork v a little bit burnt edges plus spicy peanut satay sauce.. wow.. nice! After tt, we 4 gals finally got to sleep in the same room!! Happy!! Chatted for a while, but soon we all fell asleep. Cos we were really exhausted after the day!

Next day, we went Melaka for breakfast.. Then, we took different buses to go back to our places..
A short but enjoyable trip =) looking forward to our next trip!

学生是最幸福的。。。

Started my new job on Tuesday, n i feel so drained when it s only Thursday today...
My job, is called Admin assistant, which means, sit in front of the computer, type type type, print print print, filing, answer phone calls........ all in a small office with only 2 more auntie-colleagues, and 2 pastors as my bosses --ya, pastors r my boss cos i m working for a church.

The office is smaller than a classroom!! Today, i spent whole day in office just to do Bulletins ( the handout given when u attend church service on Sunday). Oh well i never know that it can b so tedious to prepare Bulletins!! SO many small small things to take note of! So, those Christians who take bulletins every Sunday, pls dun throw them away hor! Appreciate it! Hard work u know?

Worked from 9.30pm til 7pm today, din even step out of the small space to have my lunch cos my colleague gave me some beehoon. Din meet more than 6 ppl today at work.. Din do anything meaningful to other ppl... This s certainly not the type of job i want to do in the future. I would rather be a housemaker then~ Students' life s e most enjoyable one!!

"I love you forever!!“



在friendster里兜了一会儿,发现不少人喜欢把自己的另一半的照片也放在friendster里面。如果是那些平时的合照再加上轻描淡写的叙述,应该很“正常”吧!毕竟,是情侣的话,除非是远距离的,不然常常在一起吃饭念书出街是无可厚非的。

可是呢,就发现有些人也喜欢放上那种两个人正在接吻的照片,或是就直放情人的独照,然后写上大大的 i love my dear forever!!...

哦。不错。对自己的爱情很有信心。相信天长地久。

然后,晃到另一个朋友的friendster..之前他的friendster里面充斥着两个人的甜蜜合照,看得我羡慕死了~!最近,听说他们分手了。。朋友情伤得蛮重的。。刚才,看到他的friendster里面连一张那位女生的照片都没有了,取而代之的是很多很多自己的自拍照。
呵呵。不错。不爱别人了就自恋多一点吧。人不为己,天诛地灭,是吧?

所以,恋爱中的人是不是应该在friendster facebook里面贴满合照,向世界宣布自己已经是not single not available,让身边的朋友也来分享你的喜悦,然后,如果choi choi choi分手了才来花多一点时间删除照片,换status,想办法把对方从自己的生活剔除?

我觉得。。如果不是地下情,没有什么特别原因而不想公开,就顺其自然吧!
看到顺眼的漂亮照片就贴上去,什么i love u my dear forever就免了吧,如果我love you forever,不必用扬声器让每个人都知道的 =)
(ok 我不是很相信love forever,但也要尝试嘛~)

p/s: Sorry KS!! i had to blog in chinese~~~dunno how to express in english lah..

Making decision..
















How nice would it be if a decision can be made via coin-tossing...
However, you can only do so when both options are equally good (or bad...)
When there is a slight difference, you would try so hard to scrutinize, evaluate, weigh..
Just to make a right decision, or rather, just an intelligent guess?

睡不着。。

Maybe it is due to jet lag, or due to excess sleeping, or the cups of chinese tea, I cant get into sleep tonight~
It s 5.57am now, which means i din sleep at all for the whole night
Stayed up till around 3am, watching grey's anatomy season4
Then tried to get some sleep... My brain din want to sleep yet.. keep on thinking about uni application, employment, relationships~

Got up at about 4.30am, to apply uni..
Finally applied to NUS n NTU
Hopefully I was conscious enough to make the right decision
Hopefully I can get my 1st choice
Hopefully my ambition is really my ambition

Wanna sleep dy, good night
Nope, good morning i should say =)

大选过后。。

大选过后在笨珍拍到的照片...
国阵的成绩连交通灯都惊讶到忘记怎样运作了?

不是啦~这是常常出现的情况
反正马来西亚人就是厉害,随机应变,交通灯坏了还是知道怎样驾车的=)
面对这么多的选择,我该何去何从?

TWO roads diverged in a yellow wood,

And sorry I could not travel both

And be one traveler, long I stood

And looked down one as far as I could

To where it bent in the undergrowth

下一步

成绩出来了!--我指的是我的考试成绩,不是大选成绩啦~
我这个人,真的是很有考试运。以前考ASEAN scholarship的时候,很多成绩平时比我好的人都靠不上,我却幸运到拿到一个不敢奢望的奖学金~
对我的成绩还算满意,但是有一点怀疑自己能不能进到NUSpharmacy..
看到我的成绩单,妈妈和舅母问我想不想读finance, business之类的,她们觉得我的性格也还蛮适合的,而且可以赚很多钱,呵呵。。
昨天去了教育展,申请了3间澳洲大学。如果拿不到NUSpharmacy, 然后又不想念别的科系,我就得等到明年2月去澳洲了
忽然发现,以前很向往的NTU school of information and communication其实好像很容易进!之前认为我的GP一定没办法达到入学要求。。现在竟然也可以进了。。所以。。要还是不要呢?。。。

下一步棋,该怎么走?

既期待又怕受伤害~

就是这个星期五了~!
A level成绩就要出来了。。。
我两年的心血。。虽然成绩并不代表一切,但也是非常非常重要的~!!
不像UPSR, PMR, SPM, 这个A level真的是决定我的未来的一个重要因素
然而,这也是我考过最没有把握的考试
之前那些考试,如果有B的出现就是坏消息了。。
这次。。。如果没有C就算是好消息了~至少我是这样认为的
如果。。我拿到3A2B或更好的话,我就会大肆庆祝!
如果。。看到C的话。。GP或econs的话,我就认了。。
如果。。chemistry biology mathematics任何一个是C的话。。各位,请不要来烦我。。

我。。要。。庆祝!

haiz...

Today, i brought my students to the science lab for the first time..
It was jz a simple experiment, to measure the time needed for a pendulum to oscillate 10times..

Originally the class has 40+ students, so we split e class into two, one taken by me, the other by another relief teacher. As i need to rush the class to finish the experiment so that the other half of the class can come in, I did not check the apparatus before letting the class to leave e classroom~
After both sessions, we found that a stopwatch is lost..
I dunno the stopwatch was lost during which session, as both of us did not check the apparatus did not check after or before the experiment~
Big mistake
should not repeat it again~!!

Omg... jz a stopwatch, n y did they even want to steal it?
Another teacher helped me to search the students' bag.. nothing is found
I din like the idea of searching their bags, but i had no choice but to do it


The stopwatch cant b found, n the whole class has to pay for it..
Partly my fault....

尊师重道?

今天我发考卷给学生..三班里面,及格率不超过10巴仙
我没有骂他们,一句都没有,只有称赞那些考得比较好的学生(但都是"低空飞过"....)
结果,发生了2件小小的,但是却让我感触良多的事

学生:I want to scold the teacher!! Count my marks wrong! I want to scold! Must scold!
我: Which one? Can you show me? Sorry for the mistake because I had to mark many papers..
(检查后发现我少算了一分)
学生: See? I must scold!
我:So you think you can, and should, scold the teacher?

什么道理,学生骂老师?过分!孔子,请你教我怎样教好这样的学生~

第二件事:中二normal tech
没有几个人及格,不要紧,我和学生做改正
结果,叽喳的忙说话,爱动的到处逛街,顽皮的作弄别人,爱美的照镜子梳头
我看了受不了,这种烂成绩还用这种烂态度来上课?!!
骂得很凶,全班安静,乖乖看着我,上课
2分钟后,我发现全班眼神恍惚,好像灵魂出窍~原来没有人在听课
我为了试看他们到底有没有在听,慢慢把声量放小,小到几乎没有声音
他们,真的一点反应都没有!
原来,没有人在听
我说,你们不听,那我也不必说下去了
学生竟然回答,对啰,你不要讲话啦....

原来,学生喜欢不教书的老师。。。。

The importance of family...

Since I teach in a neighbourhood secondary schools, I noticed that many students that have discipline problems actually come from problematic family.. Some of their parents do not even care about how are their kids doing, some leave all the teachings to the school, some spoil the kids to the extent where the kids do not know what is respect.. So they ended up to b some kind of "monster" in teachers' and peers' eyes.. Get scolded everyday, hated by classmates.. N the saddest part is that they dun even know that they are not behaving...

Suddenly I feel so glad and lucky to get a wonderful family. Mum works, but she managed to take great care of us. Dad loves us in his way.. And my siblings are close v each other, so far no major problems... Family is the most important part that shapes us!

I hope, and I will, try my best to give my children a good environment to grow up...

我想,我应该患上了“佳节后综合症”。。。
农历新年再加上我自己另外申请的假期期间,我过得很开心,与家人朋友等一起欢度佳节,沉浸在爱里头。。。
现在,假期结束,我又回到了原本的生活--不,这好像不是我的生活~
人在新加坡,住在舅舅家,早上去学校教书,下午过后就一个人呆在家里。
同事的年龄和人生经验和我不太一样,所以他们就真的是我的“同事”,还不是朋友,因为没什么共同的话题。唯一比较合得来的同时在之前的华文部,现在的science department真的是没人理我~所以呢,上班对我来说就是上班赚钱,不敢希望我这个临时教师可以改变学生什么,只希望他们不一下子就会周公去了~
回到家,一个人,看看电视上上网。。
晚餐,我总是一个人吃,真得很讨厌这种滋味。以前在宿舍的时候总是要找人陪我吃的。
等到很晚了舅舅舅母和表弟才回来。。他们也很少说话。。上床,睡觉,早上起床再重复这样的生活。
周末是很开心的,因为可以回家。。家很温暖,哥哥妈妈爱和我聊天,爸爸不说话但静静地听我滔滔不绝。妈妈住的菜很好吃。回到笨珍随便都可以找朋友出来聚一聚。真的很开心。可是星期日又得回到新加坡了。。

不知道这样的生活还要重复多久呢?难道我真的要等到明年2月才去澳洲念书吗?
竟然开始想念起初院时那种忙到不知道时间的日子,很充实,很踏实,因为我知道我在为我的未来努力。被朋友围绕的感觉,像是在冷冷的冬夜过着厚厚的被单,暖洋洋的。。。
现在我都不知道我每一天要达成什么目标~
原来,没有目标,充满未知数的生活不好玩 =(
生活好空,少了一点什么。。

我知道换一个想法我就可以很开心了:工作时间短,工作轻松,薪水不错,离家近每个星期可以回家,还有舅舅设备完善的家可以住,家庭和谐,可以出国念书,有爱我的人关心着我。
但是,我现在就是不会这样想啊!

负面的想法好像实验室里的氯气泄漏,久久挥之不去。。。

$$$

Tmr s e last day that i hv to work to get my 1st salary in my life..
so, dun mention abt how students nearly drive me crazy today, but think abt how m i going to use e money

since papa n mama do not need my money for new year or anything, n i think they wud seriously laugh at me if i giv them money.. there s also too much new year stuff at home, i think.. hehe.. i can spend money on myself..

So, i shall spend some money on things tt i find it "sinful" if i use my parents' money..
1. Watch a few movies --- ok this one not so sinful lah.. i do watch movies using parents' money
2. Buy myself a necklace-- I hv been wearing mum's necklace since prom night.. like it a lot.. dun bear to return mum.. so i shall buy one for myself or mum to exchange =)
3. Travel! -- fine.. i know my salary s insignificant compared to fares tt i hv to pay to go UK.. but UK trip.. is sponsored by parents, n sis wud take k of my accomodation n food (guess so!).. i m planning for trips around malaysia n even neighbour countries (definitely not singapore~~)
4. A few good books... din buy book tt r not related to academics for a long time.. my previous bday present from frens really aroused my interest to read again... but this time perhaps not so many chinese books, but english~

hoho.....
my mood s really good now!
1st salary s coming in~~!!!!
yohoo~!!

(alright.. currently i m stil quite broke, hv to wait til abt 14 feb--valentine's day?? bfore i can get e input in my bank account)

omg~

Alright~ I know I shouldn’t blog during office hour~ but then I m seriously zha dao today..

Went to teach a Sec1 Normal class Chinese… omg there were 3boys who were extremely naughty~ wah.. cannot stand them, I know I wud “lose” if I shout, but then I jz cant control their noise level n I shouted at them—meaning I scolded them for a few minutes loudly~

They jz couldn’t stop talking, moving around n disturb each other

I punished them, make them sit in front, they din bother also~ i think this s e bad part abt not being able to cane students. Last time when I was a primary sch kid, I was so afraid of teachers—because of their canes. I also wonder y they hv such thick skins. I used to feel so embarrassed when I was scolded or punished by teachers. Jz a single sentence could make me feel so bad~ but they r totally reverser.. seemed like they even enjoyed my scoldings~!!!

They r so kaypo~ wanting to know my personal details

So, in sch, I m officially 25 years old, married, v 3 kids (ok in some classes i m “not married, hv boyfren).. I m preparing a reason y I dun wear ring—I need to do housework, so I dun wear ring

I think I hv to act old, act like a mum~ then they dun take me as a jie jie who can b bullied easily

I wil roar like a tigress if needed. SO DUN PLAY PLAY V ME!!

New Year mood

肉干。。。饼干。。。大扫除。。。门彩。。。新年要到了!!
有一段时期,大概是中学的时候,开始觉得新年有点没意思
大概是因为那个时候哥哥姐姐都在国外,朋友都还在笨珍,天天见面,所以新年不过是多几天的假期,多很多食物。。。
后来,中学毕业了,同学开始到外地念书,新年正是一个好时候让大家聚一聚
以前过年见面都是在初三初四,可是现在都提前了--初一初二就要快快出来拜年了,初三就得收拾心情和行囊回去念书了~~
新年快乐!

十年树木,百年树人

老师很伟大。真的。记得你第一天去念书时,在幼儿园里面笨笨的,什么都不会吗?
现在,你所会东西可真多呢。。多亏老师耐心的教导。。。

才当了几天的老师,我就喉咙痛,豆沙声,流鼻水了。。。
各种各样的学生都有,有些上课专心10分钟都难,有些讲话讲不停,有些平时讲话大声要他回答问题时却小声到像蚂蚁一样~~

刚才改了一班中三生的“校园报道”。。。。超过一半给我记叙文,有些不知道到底文章是在表达什么。。。有些还要先翻译成英文后我才知道他们想要写的是什么。有的经过我的批改后,变得面目全非,根本就是我在帮他写~~~

然后又改了练习题,刚才在班上已经和他们讨论答案了,交上来的答案很多还是错的~~~我刚才是在向空气讲话吗?~~~~~~~~我晕~~~~~~~~~~~

各位老师,祝你们身体健康,长命百岁!!不要轻易吐血~~~~


谢谢那些曾经教过我的老师。。。教我应该不会很难吧??但愿我的学生都像小时候的我一样听话。。。(臭美!!!)

叫我许老师!!

我要当老师了。。。在新加坡一件邻里中学教华文和生物。我是这间学校的唯一一个teaching intern!!!教华文应该没问题吧!生物?呵呵,要开始读中学的生物课本了。
昨天去了中学看看,校园挺小的,教职员人数好像也不多。见了我的supervising teacher,是母语部的主任。和她聊了很多,包括她的教学宗旨,我的责任,接下来母语部要推行的计划等。她还告诉我这间学校的学生有时会很顽皮,老师说什么都听不进去,有些还会顶嘴。(主任说我是辩论员,面对顶嘴的学生应该不会有问题~)
看来我这一个月有很多事情可以忙的了。从来没想过我的第一份工会是教书,而且老板还是新加坡教育部。呵呵,昨晚新闻报道新加坡教师薪金将增加,拥有3年经验的教师年薪有5万多块新币。。。不错不错。。会不会有一天我去当老师呢?看看我这一个月来的表现吧!
新年后我就要去NIE上3天的课,然后观察一个星期,接下来就我上阵教书了!加油哦!

Went to my uncle's wedding banquet few days ago. So happy tt he s finally married!! I used to wonder y he cant find a suitable gal.. he s a nice man v decent job n look n family background, he s humourous~ finally he found his gal!!

No doubt they r seriously cute, but then v so many kids running around.. it looked quite scary. My aunt, who has a 1.5 year old boy was busy chasing the super energetic boy... he ran to e stage n tried to destroy e sound system. Another 3 cousins were on stage also, trying to figure out how come e cake s fake, y e mike cannot work, how does e champhagne taste~~ omg.. as one of e "adult" sitting near e stage, i was busy chasing them too.. i cant imagine if all of them r my kids while i still need to work at day time~ i wud pengsan~~~

MArket..

Went to e market v mum today
DIn go there for quite some time already, since i went sg to study
Today sis n her family s r coming back from UK, i supposed mum had to buy a lot of stuff, so, as a filial (huh?? haha) daughter, i decided to go market v her
SKIP skip skip.....(e details like wat we bought etc etc)
bought breakfast at my fav shop.. OMG since when did they increase e price from 70cents to RM1!! ridiculous!!-- well, although e price s high, i still choose to eat tt cos this s my fav... bo bian~
went to grandma's house, had breakfast v her, chatted v her using TeoChew.. realised, my teochew s like my malay now~~ worsen since i went sg~~

Hello?? can someone tel me wat shall i do?

Now waiting for A level results, supposed to b a great time for me to slack, but then, hello? 19-year-old gal slacking for months? not quite sensible right?

So, actually i hv planned sth for myself:
1. I got internship offer from MOE to teach for a month, salary s $1000, quite a good program cos i get trainings etc etc
BUT! i m waiting for aus uni offer, which requires me to b in australia in early feb. So if i get e offer, i shall not work but use january to prepare stuff...

再见,oldham hall!


坐在宿舍房间里,等12点下楼吃午餐,然后就要离开这个住了2年的宿舍。。。


时间。。过得还算挺快的。。我不会说“不知不觉”地过了2年,而是精彩充实的度过了我的初院生涯。昨天晚上的prom,就是为我的jc life画上一个完美的休止符。(待续。。)


回到家了。。昨天回到家就睡到今天早上,因为prom过后整晚都没睡!

昨天婉欣走的时候和我拥抱了挺久,眼泪不知不觉地就流了下来。。真是的,不知道为什么这么多愁善感。但是,想想,这代表我们2年来所建立起的友情。如果我和她不算朋友的话,那么说再见不过是一句话,没什么难的。雪芬离开的时候也抱了我一下,我感受到泪水在眼眶里打转。。。我怕我是泪眼汪汪的离开宿舍,所以赶快就逃离现场了~~

午餐和佑春一起吃,收到他最后一个在宿舍的“lunch!” sms..呵呵,每天的午餐晚餐都会准时收到“lunch!”和"dinner!"的sms。不知道我们会不会在澳洲相遇呢?

weiken今天很迟下来吃,我受不了一再的向每一个离开宿舍的人说再见,所以决定越快越好的离开宿舍。所以没和weiken一起吃午餐了。

还好,我离开的时候佑春和weiken都在忙着check out,没和我临别依依,都是匆匆的说了再见就走了。josiah, ten, darrel都在宿舍门口送别。天空下着绵绵细雨,还好手上的行李有够重,分散了我的注意力,我一滴眼泪都没有流哦!

上了170号巴士,本来打算一路睡到关卡的我竟然没睡觉,忙着sms向班上的同学说再见。谢谢大家2年来的照顾。。。。新加坡,byebye!!

(说不定我还会在新加坡念大学~~~)

我的志愿

小学时作文的题目。。。小时候看到这个作文题的时候就会很庆幸,我的志愿嘛,这么容易的题目,洋洋洒洒的写了一篇,文笔通顺,内容切题,A!!可是不知道为什么,这个题目的难度好像随着我的年龄的增加而增加。。。前几天回家,看到小学时的通讯录,里面写的是40多个小脑袋瓜的联络方法,毕业感言,和志愿。原来很多小孩(我那个年代吧?)想要当设计师。。呵呵。。榜上有名的包括设计师,老师,医生,律师,不错,典型的“我的志愿”看看这些老同学现在的状况,大概只有一个人正朝着自己的梦想前进,在印尼念医学系。。其他的,还远着呢,不然就是像我一样,已经转移目标了。。转移目标?我的目标是什么?呵呵。。。很乱。。。待会儿要去agent那里问看我还来得及报名吗。。我怕啦,这个决定是目前为止我人生中最大的决定。我很幸运,经济方面没什么大问题,但是就是这个“我的志愿”在搞怪。。当兴趣和志愿有分歧,或是有超过一个兴趣一个志愿时,就会像我一样,"the road not taken”。。。。

生日快乐

说说我如何度过我的生日吧!
生日前一天晚上,头痛。很早就去睡了,因为知道12点时电话一定会响~
结果才睡了一阵,忽然看到两个人影在我面前,死命喊我起床~~原来是两个朋友买了雪糕当蛋糕为我庆祝。至于为什么是在12点之前呢?原来因为还有一个住另一层楼的朋友要一起庆祝!结果,我看他们吃了雪糕,然后再去睡觉~(要生病了还吃雪糕咩~)要回去的时候,朋友叫我帮她拿手袋,看到了一本吴若权的书。她说,呐,你的生日礼物。。我回应:“屁啦~”(没想到他们会送书本给我嘛~原本希望会收到一只小熊soft toy的。。)“是真得啦!”oh really?? wow!! 我很喜欢吴若权!!真的很喜欢这本书。。全彩色的呢~舍不得看。。

还没12点。电话响了。是我中学时其中一个最好的朋友!!打来祝我生日快乐的,因为知道12点一定打不通~感动~
12点啦!收到几则sms和电话..其中一则让我super感动--中学时的死党隔天有STPM试卷还等到12点才sms我。当然怨了一下,不过不要紧啦,真的是很surprise,以为她会考试考到忘了~
过了一阵,怎么少了一个应该会打电话给我的朋友的电话呢。。原来他通过别人送了我一只熊soft toy..oh my god!! 我这一辈子第一次收到soft toy bear呢,高兴到~~在床上滚,呵呵。。很怀疑自己的形象是不是很“我不喜欢绒毛bear~”,活了18年都没人送我呢~一个在印尼念书的朋友也很意外的记得我的生日。。和几个来我房间向我说生日快乐的朋友聊到2点,我就很开心的睡着了。。
早上一起床,惨,耳朵和喉咙很痛。痰的颜色竟然是橙色的,还有血丝。。很不愿意的在生日这天去看了医生。下午就和朋友去新山玩了!花了一个下午买了很多东西--原来我很typical,逛街的女生是不会累的,即使吃了药还是一样精神奕奕~
晚上本来要去danga bay玩,结果哥哥困在车龙中,还下雨~我们就继续逛街~
去哥哥家住了一玩,回宿舍。生日隔天才知道ahm做了一个小小的蛋糕给我,但是我不在!最后还是有吃到啦~陆陆续续收到很多sms,即使很多是迟到的,但better late than never!!

总之,生日快乐!!

我好幸福哦。。。

最近有几个人告诉我,“你开心快乐就好,这样我就开心了。。。”
oh my god...原来我的快乐会让爱我的人也感到快乐。。。
真是太幸福了~~~

...

忽然惊觉,我又即将经历一波离别。。不知不觉,两年就这样过了。从去年踏进宿舍第一天的陌生,到现在的默契,是通过不少碰撞,磨擦才造就的。和她们的友情,其实真的还算不上什么情同姐妹,完完全全的理解对方,但是和她们相处就像在早餐时喝美禄一样—一个惯例性的动作,那么地自然,但是早餐硬是不给你美禄,你还是可以照样活下去,就是觉得少了点什么。吃饭前要scan卡。出门前要book out。Roll call要到了不要去冲凉。右边那间冲凉房的门要用脚从下面勾着加上用手从门缝用力扯才开得到。住久了就会有归属感—不论你是不是真的很喜欢这个地方。

等一下国婷就要离开宿舍了。虽然我知道我们还是有机会碰面,但是住同一屋檐下,天天见面,一起吃饭出门逛街玩耍聊天煮maggie curry instant noodles的日子应该是没办法重演的。。其实她们第一次让我感受到姐妹淘意思。。就可以在她们面前提到自己喜欢的男生也不会觉得尴尬,有什么感想也可以马上和她们分享。。这两年的相处,应该是前世修来的福,让我遇到了一群可爱的朋友。不知道我会不会哭。很可能。虽然说经历了这么多次的离别,但是这次我应该还是没法做到那种“friends come, friends go“那种豁然的心态。。。

Bye bye...

一直都很期待考完试的那一天,考着一张又一张的考试,心中暗喜:两年的scholar生涯要结束了!终于要把压在肩上的担子暂时放下,休息一阵。。对于考完试毕业离开宿舍等我只抱着开心,期待的心。刚才和一位朋友聊天时,他问,我是不是又开心又伤心呢?huh?伤心?为什么?噢。。毕业也代表我得和这两年来认识的朋友说再见了。说没有感觉是骗人的,但是,friends come, friends go..所以,我只能在心中祝福大家前程似锦。。。我的gang,婉欣去美国,佑春去澳洲,weiken应该去美国,国婷丽英多数是在新加坡。。我呢?真的不知道。。。世界很大,所以。。以后应该是各走各路的,再次同住一个宿舍的几率应该是0。但是,我感谢老天,让我认识了一群要好的朋友,让我在新加坡的日子精彩了很多。。没有朋友我就不是我了。。。我受不了没有朋友,孤孤单单的日子!!开始担心我回家后会不会习惯一个人睡一间房,一整天看家里的墙壁,和电脑说话,等爸爸妈妈放工才陪我。。。。

收拾被单时,没有折,直接弄成一团枕头盖着,假假很整齐,不乖

残酷的口福

这是从星洲的网站转载下来的。。。看了觉得怎么人类这么贪心,自私。要吃鸡鸭牛羊猪鱼虾,可以,反正食物链就是这样,但是有没有必要这样残忍呢?不能够就直截了当先结束他们的生命后再烹煮吗?还有什么熊胆填鸭的,就一定要吃这些吗?如果吃来救命,就算了,但也要尽量用人道的方法!

殘酷的口福updated:2007-09-07 16:26:49 MYT
過生日的那個上,朋友邀請我到一稍有名氣的餐館吃飯。進了餐館包廂,從服務員手中接了菜譜,朋友先點了幾道“普通”菜肴,然後在服務員強烈建議之下,叫了一道喜氣洋洋的‘團圓扇子’。名字這麼輝煌的‘團圓扇子’,端上來後,我們竟然發現只是一條首尾相接、形成一個圓扇形的鱔魚。我的反應比較慢,朋友卻立馬跳了出來,批評這道‘招牌菜’有點失真、過于夸大事實。那位跟那道菜肴一起出來的師傅,以動作解答了朋友的疑問。用手上的小刀,他將鱔魚的腹部慢慢劃開。只看到亮晶晶的、鮮美的魚子涌了出來,透明而潤亮如珍珠的魚子,一下子就堆滿了晶瑩剔透的盤子。或許,他停在哪兒就好。可惜,大師傅繼續賣弄。他說︰“這道菜肴的難度,在于尋找與采購即將產卵的母鱔魚。在制作的過程,把活生生的母鱔魚小心的放進鍋里的熱油中。受了熱,母鱔魚急于保護自己的卵,在護住腹里的卵的過程,便使勁的躬身。烤熟後,母鱔魚就躬成一個完美的圓形。”我們馬上給嚇呆了,驚訝的說不出話來。這個時候,他加了一句話︰“今天你們很有口福,這條母鱔魚,又大、又肥、又鮮。”口福?名字與概念都好。但,美麗與美好的下面,竟然是哀婉的、殘酷的故事。大師傅強調這道菜肴味道很好。不知道為什麼,拿著筷子的我們,就是不忍下筷,腦海里禁不住要聯想,亮晶晶的魚子,不止是小鱔魚的生命,還是母鱔魚臨死之前,為了維護孩子們的生命,掉落的悲涼與絕望眼淚。 (星洲日報/副刊•文:李國七•2007.09.03)

Hari Kemerdekaan

Yesterday was malaysia's national day..
Kuan Chin, as malaysian AHM organised a simple celebration in dining hall

Malaysian boarders, mainly scholars, gathered around a table, n we sang Negaraku..
suddenly, i felt a bit sad...
exporting scholars has become a common trend..
y r we here? Y there s no place for us in malaysia?
i wonder....

anyway, happy birthday to malaysia..
my home, my family, my frens, my childhood memories....r all there...
there s no other place i can love..
