Yawn!!!!

Still as sleepy as ever. Must be the heat. But can't possibly be, it rained today. Hmm.....

After two days in Advanced Diploma, I've noticed that some people are really kiasu. Fighting (well, not exactly) to sit in the first few rows. Sheesh. What's your problem, people???

I finally got to listen to Green Day's album, American Idiot after finding out what a .rar file is. It's pretty good, I mean the album.

Miss Canada won the Miss Universe 2005 title. I didn't get to watch it. My mum wanted to watch it but she didn't know what time it was. I just found out, it was at 10.00 a.m., unless my time converter is wrong lah.

IE sucks

I was just viewing my blog using Internet Explorer. I realised that it distorts my blog. I never knew because I use Mozilla Firefox at home. I'm typing this in college and am, therefore, stuck using IE. Man, it sucks! Mozilla is so much better than IE. It hardly has any pop ups and it doesn't download all those stupid search bars. IE lags a lot too, it makes the computer so slow. I heard Opera is good too, haven't tried it out yet though. Maybe I should. just to compare.

College has started

I did it. I woke up at 6.10 a.m. I've got to get used to this as I currently have two 8.00 a.m. classes. Damn! I doubt I'll be able to do this every week. I'm not used to sleeping early and waking up so early, I mean I wake up at 2.00 p.m.

Last day of hols.....

Oh no! The holidays are almost over. Classes start tomorrow. I've just wasted away 1 month sleeping like a pig. And now I feel like one. *YAWN* Man, I feel so sleepy! Must be sleeping too much. I'm sure I won't be able to wake up at six tomorrow. Luckily tutorials don't start till next week.

Sial brother!

The last days of holidays.....
Slept till 2.30 p.m. Record breaking. Hahaha. Had to help make floss rolls today. the skin was acting really stupid. Had a hard time making the end stick to the rest of the roll. My mom kept saying do slowly and don't be impatient. Hah! When I do work for her and I'm slow she'll say; "Let me do. I'm faster." Look who's talking!

Damn my idiot brother. He thinks he is the king of the world and wishes to take over the universe (well not quite). I was using the computer last night and he told me that he wanted to use. I didn't know I'll be using till quite late (playing games). I eventually finished at around 2 a.m. this morning. And just only I wanted to use the computer. He said; "Don't use till 2 a.m. again." What the F***?He thinks he owns the computer. There's another computer, why can't he use that one to check his e-mail instead???? Oh no.......he says his files are on the other computer and that he needs to use them to check his e-mail. What utter RUBBISH! So now I'm stuck using the "smaller, not so canggih" computer because His Highness needs to use the "bigger" one. I would really like to vent my frustration on something/somebody right now. Alas, I can't! I'll be told off if I do.

Blah!

Hmph! Went to college today because thought could get next semester's timetable. It was a complete waste of time & money (=petrol). Even the graduates' list isn't out.

It was my college's orientation week. Hahaha....'ickle firsties.

Should I? Or should I not?

I'm thinking of growing my hair long so that I wouldn't have to go cut my hair so very often which is quite costly. But If I do let it grow it'll look like a mess in between the growing-long process. I've experienced it in secondary school. And what more, my hair is curly.This'll be a hard decision to make before college starts.

Another thing, I wanna get my teeth straightened. Too costly though. And I won't be able to chew chewing gum for as long as I'm wearing braces.

*SSSSSSSSSSSSSIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*

Chi's 21st birthday party

Celebrated chi's 21st birthday in Gor-ee's house on Saturday (21st May 2005). Went to Gor-ee's house at around 3 p.m. to help set up stuff and 'cook' some food. Rach & Gav fetched us up to Subang. Started off by 'pau-ing' wanton. I was deemed to be stingy as I put too little fish paste in the wanton while Rach put almost one tablespoon (excuse the exaggeration) of fish paste till the wanton skin tore. Then Chi & me cut some vegetables with much stupidness & slowness. Then Gor-ee decided to fry the wanton. Started off really bad, almost burnt the first wanton (the skin actually, with the bottom part looking uncooked). Finished off really well though. The we set up the tables. Although the party was supposed to start at 7.30 p.m., some of her friends had to come early by 1 hour to do I-don't-know what. And so her friends started arriving. Family members too. Party started and blah blah blah. Cut the cake first before dinner, just to get the cake out of the way I guess. Yes!!!! Got to drink Pong Tay. Salty but yummy!!!! Too much food in my opinion. I guess the party was a success. All her friends turned up and there were no gatecrashers/ party poopers. I would like to say something about SOME of her friends though (no offence to anyone, ya). This happened when I was in dining area and some of her friends wanted to leave. So before leaving I guess they wanted to thank my mum for the food and stuff. I was listening to my auntie who was talking to my uncle. Suddenly out of the blues I hear someone calling 'Wai Yee's sister.' So, I turned around and saw them standing at the door. They asked for my mum & I went to get her. I was thinking 'What the bloody hell???' 'I have a name you know, you insolent b*****s,' I wanted to tell them and one of them clearly knows my name. Damn them!!!!!!! Anyway, had a good night. Enjoyed being by myself reading a book with no one disturbing me, well, not exactly no one disturbing me. I meant to say with hardly anyone disturbing me. I still owe my sister a birthday present. Can't figure out what to get for her. Maybe I'll just give her an IOU for now.

Just got back from Gor-ee's house. Had dinner there: leftover food from Saturday. Pong Tay again....yay!!!!!!! Played Taboo. Had a really fun time. Wasn't good at the game, though. Mind keeps going blank when is turn to give clues. One clue I gave was hillarious: The word was comb; I said it was a long thing with teeth.....nobody got it. Gave some really weird answers: e.g. Q:What do you do to make a horse go faster?; A:Wallop it....hahahaha.
Am still coughing and having a flu. I do hope I'll get better before college starts.

I just found out that DKNY = Donna Karan New York

By the way, I passed my exam. This means I'll be able to go on to Advanced Diploma in Commerce (Financial Accounting). Yay!!!! I must have gotten Ds for both papers, though. Oh well, it doesn't matter cos I won't be stuck in Diploma. Phew!!

Still sick

*SIGH~~~~~~*. Still sick as ever. Now have the flu and the occasional cough is still going on. Luckily I'm still on holiday. If I was having classes now I'd be in a fit of rage with myself. Just finished downloading Jamie Cullum's two albums. Listening to them now. Sounds good, though am not exactly a jazz fan.

The Black Knight

Found a new FUN game yesterday night. The Black Knight. I'm trying to get myself on the high score board. To play, click here or click the Game Garage link under my links. It can be downloaded. But the screen is too big, so I prefer playing it online.

Sick

I'm currently sick...not sick in bed, though...not that bad.

'SICK' by Me
I am sick
Started on Monday
First came the cough and a sore throat
Tried Strepsils
But didn't work
Then a headache developed
Which turned into a fever
Sweated the whole night/morning
Woke up with the aftermath of the fever
Another headache
Body ached
Slept the whole of Tuesday
Woke up feeling much better
Watched Sepet
Bought oranges from Pasar Malam
Felt hungry
Ate a lot
Slept late
Woke up on Wednesday
With a blocked nose
And the stupid sore throat
And a slight headache
Body still aches
Keep fighting my antibodies
Win the battle over them viruses soon

Now, a little review on Sepet. The movie had a nice plot. The direction, or could have been the editing, wasn't very good though. The scenes kept changing very abruptly. Didn't have a good ending too, not by my standards anyway. But seems they won awards. I do not know for what...maybe for best title...hahaha. But it was quite funny, some parts were anyway. I'd give the movie credit for that.

Oh, HAPPY 21st Birthday chi!!!!!! You're OLD!!!!!

Bye Jee-ee & Jee-teow

Jee-ee & Jee-teow went back to Holland yesterday (12th May 2005 11.10 p.m.). They were here for 3 weeks. It seemed like they were here for a week only. They had to leave so soon. WIsh they could have stayed longer. Now it would be back to normal boring holidays.
Sent them off at the airport. Took some photos at the airport. Hope they'll be back soon. Missing them already.

Genting Highlands

9th May 2005: Left Selangor at around 2.00 p.m. for Genting Highlands. Don't remember what time we reached there though. Checked in at First World Hotel. Mum forgot bag, sad. Had something to eat/drink in Starbucks after checking in. Went to First World Indoor Theme Park. Four of us (Chi, Kat, Liesl & me) bought tickets to sit rides in Indoor Theme Park. RM 19 per person (adult) & RM 16 per child. We wanted to make our (I mean, Uncle Kim Sing's) money's worth so sat all the rides except those we were too big to sit on. We sat the Euro Express 6 or 7 times. The reason being we wanted to get a perfect picture (i.e. all of us looking at the camera attached to a wall somewhere which takes pictures of the people on the coaster at some point of the ride) of us on the ride. And finally we made that perfect shot with all of us looking at the camera. YES! Kat bought the picture and will soon scan and e-mail it to us. She paid RM 5 for the 4R photo. EXPENSIVE! After having some fun in the theme park, we went for a buffet dinner at 7.30 p.m. which was complimentary with the hotel rooms. Had a very fast dinner as had to rush for a 9.00 p.m. show at The Pavilion. The show was called X-Treme Push the Limits! It was an extremely good show. There were a lot of dancing and some stunts. Ahkoo & Uncle Chin Kee paid to go in while chi, Kat, Liesl & me had complimentary tickets because of our room package. The show was 1 hour 15 minutes. After that the four of us went and continued playing in the theme park. Went for the Motion Master which was a complete waste of time. Went back to our rooms at around 12 a.m.

10th May 2005: Was up with chi & Kat till around 4.30 a.m. We were having a chat and completely forgot the time. Liesl already K.O.ed in Ahkoo's suite before going back to the room. I didn't mention about our rooms yet. It's really small with two single beds per room. The sink is on the left once you enter the room door. The bathroom and toilet are in two different "cubicles". The room doesn't even have soap & shampoo. So kiam siap one. Anyway, woke up at 8.30 a.m. Got ready to go out but had to wait for chi & Kat to wake up. Finally they woke up when all the aunties came and woke them up, I mean it'll be impossible to not wake up when so many people are screaming in your ear. Went for breakfast at McDonalds. I wanted a cup of hot Milo. Didn't know McDs did not have hot Milo so had to drink ice cold Milo in the morning in Genting Highlands. Then went to Outdoor Theme Park. Billy Ahkoo gave us money to pay for our unlimited pass. RM 30 per person (adult) & RM 20 per child. We got 25% off though. First ride: Space Shot. Only three of us sat. Liesl didn't dare to. Waited for quite a while as there were many people (lots of Indians). Laughed at those screaming while waiting. Very excited to get on the ride. When it was our turn, we were screaming before we even reached the top. I bet people down there were laughing at us. This was my second time sitting it but still felt, not scared, but nervous I guess. The fall down was excellent! Sat very few rides. It started raining after our third ride. So had to go indoors. Should have gone outdoors the previous day with Rench & Raymond when the weather was good. After a while the rain stopped. Went outdoors again. Got in line at the Bumper Boats. Waited for twenty minutes then finally got to play for ten minutes. Then it started getting very misty. The rides stopped operating. Didn't get any better so went to have lunch. Ate some pasar-malam tasting burger. Before leaving the theme park, chi & me got to sit one last ride, the swinging thingy. Went home at around 3.30 p.m. very tired. Had dinner in Subang. Came back.

For pictures click here. There aren't many photos though.

Monday

Celebrated Jee Teow's (10th May) & Uncle Chin Kee's(8th May) birthdays yesterday. Felt like a fool yesterday. Was too blind and not alert to be able to see the drain. One leg fell into the drain while knee of other leg hit the floor. Damn! Oh well, guess I should be more alert next time.

Today, going up to Genting Highlands. Staying there for a night, coming back tomorrow.

I'm currently readingThe Dragon Empress. I started reading it yesterday at my aunt's house but it was too noisy so i stopped at the 3rd page....hahaha. I'm sure that I can finish reading all three books before college starts as there really isn't anything to do (please read previous posts to get a picture of how bored I am).

Oh, and the Hello software sucks. I don't know how to post pictures on my blog. It ain't user friendly!!!!
