Memo# 15 : Photoshoot

Finally!! The Professional Photograph is out after waiting for 2 weeks.

When I reach there, the guys were at Bahamut Portal playing DotA
Ng actually played DotA..omgWe went to collect the pictures from the studio then later go Coffee Bean to burn it and distribute it to everyone who was there.
I am broke going out almost everyday this whole week. Reluctantly handing over the money for a Mocha Regular, White Chocolate and Ultimate that costs a small fortune
My Memory card got stuck in Ng's laptop after he thought my MMC could work with his MMC slot. I didnt tell him that I had the adoptor. We had to turn the laptop on its side and shake it vigorously to get it out watched by Ng in dismay.
Google Earth.. nothing to do really. Just looking at the photographs
The total pictures cost RM120 with the negatives at RM20. Well it was more of a lifetime investment as to remind us of past relationships with friends that can be exploited if one of them becomes rich.
I can truly say this has been a good plan. I have done many things like proposing and designing the Class T-Shirts , creating the forum and organising annual beach barbecue to try an emulate other school's activities.

The end result is a professionally done group photo that will last for much longer than some SPM result. This past 2 years in La Salle and the forming of the Leven ( once known as MCA) have brought us closer as friends though bitter times and squabbles do occur, we face them with an open mind.

Soon we wont even contact each other as we will persue our tertiery education separately and maybe decades down the line we will meet up at Coffee Bean as we did back in our High School days to have a drink and just talk crap as we used to during class lessons.
After 2 hours at Coffee Bean, we went to send Ng home and then go S.T.A.R

Taking pictures while driving on the road.. Please dont try this anywhere

We went off to Shangri-la Tanjung Aru Resort Beach Hotel again after going there just last night to see the British Council Education Fair
EDUCATION UK 2007 EXPO


There was quite a lot of people there.
Only poor people like us are so sakai as to be amazed by the nice toilet with automatic hand dryer and automatic tap. I say.. the toilet is bigger than my house o
Maybe even more advanced


Didnt actually stop by any booths to ask. Just went around and around 3 times looking for something to ask..but in the end just played with the laptop and went off for sightseeing

Under the hotsun at 5pm just exploring around the place
It's a nice place to stay. I think its more comfortable than Sutera Harbour.
The place looks more cozy and the view is nice.

Later we walked from S.T.A.R to Tanjung Aru Plaze 'cause they said they wanted to go gaming before going home. I went home half way there.
I think my face got a bit sunburnt..it's red


So here are the pictures
I dont really like this one..since we did that one first.
So still a little timid and not so much expressive.
Later on we got to know the photographer so that made it more fun to try and experiment with many many different poses


This seems to be my favourite..
except for 1 guy who didnt change his facial expressions at all and look like a cardboard..
the rest is nice..Try and guess who looks the SAME in every pic..even the face angle is same.
And there's no expression

Memo# 10: Mall Hopping and a Review

Got up not as usual at 7.ooam today.

Went with Soo to watch a movie for no other reason than to leave the house.
It's a Wednesday so movie tickets are cheaper. We planned to watch Stranger than Fiction, a movie i hear being praised everywhere.

Took the bus to Karamunsing to send his some CD to reboot his computer.Since he called the shop and found out it only opened at 11 ( they opened half and hour later though) we had breakfast first. Went around 3 floors looking for the coffee shop. Karamunsing really has changed with more space and I just kinda got lost.So we went to 美食 Restaurant because I like the Kuching Kon Lau mee there. Soo wanted to eat Japanese Food...in the morning!!!

It was RM3.50 per plate to drop of which to me is more worth it than JAPANESE FOOD~!!!!! After breakfast gave the CD and walked to Centre Point to catch the movie at 12pm
Walk through Asia City Complex just to cool down and we still made it for the movie.

REVIEW of STRANGER THAN FICTION


Harold Crick isn't ready to go. Period.

When I first saw the trailer for this movie last year. I was sceptical. Most movie trailers give u a rough imagination of what the show would be about. But after watching the trailer. It gave me..nothing. I didn't have the slightest idea what the movie was about nor did it give me an impression to watch it. So after reading about this movie from other people. I decided to give it a try.

It starts out with an auditor with a seemingly boring and predictable job. The movie starts out with a narrator telling out his life's process and his thoughts until one day when he wakes up and brushes his teeth, he actually hears the narrator speaking. He becomes increasingly distracted with the narrator that it throws his whole life out of balance.

He hears the narrator say that he will be killed off so he tries to find help to figure out what is going on and ends up with a professor who is a pro at stories. He falls in love with a baker whom he was auditing and later starts living life that normally he wouldn't do such as playing the guitar or having a relationship with the baker lady.

While on the other end, the author who was writing the story about Harold Crick's life is having writer's block on how to kill her character's life.

In the end Harold meets the author and she is shocked to find out her character in the story is a real person. He persuades her not to kill him but the professor said he must be killed because it is her best masterpiece ever.

In the end.. it was quite a predictable ending but all in all I would say it's an above average movie. Very good plot and characters. I only felt the love relationship between Harold and Ana wasn't completely elaborated.

We went around CP looking for a shirt to wear for the Award Giving Ceremony on Saturday but since I'm broke,better just look around. For lunch, I decided to try Sean's drinking place called The Joint .It's in Api-Api centre somewhere in the middle.The food is not very expensive and they serve Sisha for RM10 (not like i smoke that stuff..Soo only enquired) and a Foosball machine.

Walked across to Asia City Complex and just roamed around looking for new things that were open..seems nothing much yet.
I dared Soo to walk up a sky bridge that is linking across a 6 lane street but since it was blocked..there must be something exciting like a hole or a broken railing up there..haha..when go up there..only got broken roof one...haha..nothing dangerous..
Then go back all the way back to Karamunsing to take back his laptop and just looked around the new extension until I went home.

Tomorrow morning have to wake up early again just to go school..haih...hahaha..

Kwong acting retarded and happy before taking his results

The cafe..called Cruise Cafe veli chio man!! Interior got 5 Star dining experience with wine rack and sui furniture. And the food there really RM2.00 horr..but only 3 dishes lar..
But counted as cheap liao coz got coffee or tea again. laughing to himself again..*sign*
Kon Lou mee with coffee for RM2
They have Kon Lau Mee, Porridge and Noodle soup + Coffee for only RM2..maybe the noodle is IndoMee and coffee leftover from the night before..hahaha..meat prolly leafovers too

Good atmosphere lerr

So later went to school.. to the hall
Lots of people lining up nervous
That is NOT my result slip..haha..just snatched that from kelvin su's hand to pose

Just after i got my results.. disappointed larr..Didnt expect to do so bad in SPM
Stupid.....must wait for reporter to take picture again..not even good news to me
You CAN say i am the WORST in the ELITE TOP

Haaaiiihhh...if not tulan enough ar..
Crazy Mary actually sent me GIFTS!!!!!!! Like wud~??!!!

A F*CKING TURTLE!!!!!!!!!!!!1111!! KNNCCB
WHO GIVES A LIVE ANIMAL!!!!!!
Ok lar..i got to admit its cute..like 1 inch big only..
But I where got time to rear a turtle.. i cant even keep the large turtle in my pond that my grandmother left here..how to keep baby one..
And some big gift in a box

When i opened the box..it was some psychotic looking Blood RED piggy bank with its mouth wide open in the shape of a PIG!! Freaked me out
Needless to say..i donated the gifts to my school
I gave the turtle to the Biology teacher..hahahaha...science class will be a LOT more interesting

Damn..i am so evil

Hahaha..ok maybe i wasnt as evil as to let the teacher dissect the little thing
But prolly it will be be in the science garden..am I good or wut
Should have given them the name for the turtle *crazy mary*

Ng treated us to KFC just because he got 10A1s... smart ass
So happy with his results


Our group splitted into 2
Kong and his group wanted to watch the cantonese comedy called Wonderful Life which my friends said was boring
And my group -led by me- wanted to watch 300

We took the bus to GSC to watch 300 but GSC only started at 2.35pm
So we opted to try Mega Pavillion




The movie there was 1.45pm so we bought burgers and went to a 7/11 concept store called Orange to buy drinking water.




Wat spoiles the movie is always the ending..if the ending sucks i will have the impression that the whole thing sucks..
But actually horr..the movie veli good one wor..
the only thing unbelievable was after slicing over 30 people and their blood was spraying all over the place.. the ground was not even covered with blood nor where their Greek-godlike bodies splattered with blood

The censorship was minimal and there were even little bits not for kiddies to watch..

After the movie we went to find the other group in KK Plaza.
Seems they didnt see their movie because it was too late so all they did was play at the arcade..
Lucky didnt join them in the beginning..

Photoshoot is on Friday
Wat am i going to wear??...hmm

p/s- i wont post my SPM results until tomorrow

Memo# 2 :Serenity and calmness

Been so busy out and about today... lucky i got time to even blog

Today mass was in a different shade... of P-U-R-P-L-E
Went to my grandparents house to give them the old computer

Life is never dull in the village

I really think ALL old people should at move to the kampungs and stay there.
What is the point of growing old sitting in front of the TV watching crap like Astro Ria.
It is at the kampungs that they breathe fresh air.. my granddad's house doesnt even have a decent tv set. Cant even receive TV 3 and NTV7..its just RTM.

So..they do more productive things like gardening and keep an orchard [that's a
planting of trees or shrubs maintained for food production (source:Wiki - i dun knw how to explain it myself)]

It's the ultimate gym.. fitness while growing old
Stay fit and eat healthy with chickens they rear and vegetables they plant.
They even make their own liquor . It's called Lihing or distilled rice wine. It smells as strong as thinner but taste sweet unlike the wine which is sour.

So after that I drove to Travellers Inn at Kinarut to have tea. That place is nice with all the sea breeze and little chalets surrounding the little land. It's just nice to go there and enjoy the sea breeze while eating fish&chips and drinking Chocolate Milkshakes.

Supposed to go watch 300 tonite but no transport out. Haha.. Would be nice to see an old friend after 3 months in NS. Wonder whether he has a 6pack or not..hahahaha...MUST see!!

Tomorrow SPM results come out!!! OMG lar.. how can..pressure mounting..
veli hard to breathe .. cold sweat profusely coming out.. bloodshot eyes

Damn tulan if kenot get minimum 8As including Bahasa Malaysia..
high expectation from family

Better get a good nite's sleep.

Memo# 1: Dribing..lawl

Ha ha ha...im opening a new blog just for fun..

Monday SPM results are coming out and i am damn nervous
Of course being the only non-chinese in a family of chinese tuk su zhai really puts a lot of pressure on me. I am not your ordinary study freak who can stand sitting awake for more than 1 hour.

I have never been blessed by the ability to remember certain things like people's names and homework. But though given the disability i do have 1 ability , and that is to remember pictures.
I have a semi photographic memory. So while reading a book i dont really remember what it says but more of what it looks like. Ha Ha..sounds absurd doesnt it. Strange but true. I remember what the page looks like and what information was stored there before.. cibai liddat oso can

Ok..so finally..
after 3 months of waiting.. i finally got my P drivers licence
Today is the first time i drove the Mitsubishi Storm and i felt GODLIKE!!
It aint like your pussy-of-an iswara but a damn powerful and scary Godzilla.

Of course the down side is I was practically blind. The car is long and I can't see the back.
But with power comes great responsibility. I'll get used to that before i get the Prado Grande.

After reaching Damai, accompanied Soo to cut hair at K-Avenue and later hitch a ride on his girlfriend's mom's car to CP too see the education fair at Hyatt and the UiTM fair at Palm Square. Nothing much to buy larr coz they all suck. Can't even find a decent unique un-ugly shirt in KK anymore.

Evening horr met my Yap,Lee and Chu at Damai..
just talked a little and walked a little. Great to see those guys again!!
Brothers of La Salle..

So monday is SPM results time and i dont think i can take the anxiety.
Oh ya..driving is fun..hahaha..
