last day of MAY...

nothing marvelous bout the last day of MAY... just that... it's the MIDDLE of the YEAR already!!! so fast!!!! OMG...... it was just like last night that i was hanging out with the dugongs on New Years Eve where we didn't know what to do and didn't know where to go... and our beloved Wannabe Dugong was in the bathroom "the whole year"!!!!! ahhahah..... he went in the bathroom 31st Dec 2004, 11.58 pm and got out 1st Jan 2005, 12.03 am... heheheh... u thought what uh??? ;)

anyway... was in college... trying again to get somethings done... but couldn't... really shitty man.. why the hell did my supervisor asked me to have a server in the bloody network? all this IPv6 thing is UNIX based!!! and she wants me to use it in Windows based... mad!! and its not like she knows how to do what i'm doing.... sheesh.....

but so as long i pass my thesis (which the new supervisor said i would)... it'll be good enough...

btw.. does anyone know how to calculate CGPA? to calculate whether u have 2nd class upper or lower? just wanted to calculate my grades... i hope its good enough for a 2nd upper... sigh... just hope my thesis won't bring it down.... i'm now on a very thin fence.... i could fall either way....

was suggesting to Ah Kong bout dinner before he left.... don't know if the dugongs want to meet....

PHEW!!!

i told myself to get up bout 10.30am to finish up printing the documentation.... so i managed to get up and in the bathroom i NEARLY put my face wash onto my toothbrush!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHA.... luckily i realised it and put the cap back on and reached for the Colgate... i shook my head.. man i was sooo blur!!!!!

managed to finish printing my documentation... bout 87 pages!!!! mum fetch me and brought me to college to hand it up to the coordinator... what a relief!!!!

hahah my mum was more excited than i was!!! she was telling me to follow her home.. go to the tailor to make my dress for my cousin's wedding and stuff like that... but i can't.. as i still have some left over work to do.. remember... i still have that 10% part of the network that is not working? yea my supervisor told me to try to get that working by the 8th so that i can show that in my presentation and get more marks... i mean i'm not wanting to score and he DID tell me that i PASSED... but then again.. i've been in this for so long.. why not try to follow through right? even for an extra 5 marks or so.... so yea... will not be going home...

so went for banana leaf "celebration" lunch... this time we went to the one next to Francis.... food's ok, price ok too... nothing grand.... and went around town for a while....

i was contemplating to follow mum to see grandad or not.... heck... just follow.. cause i haven't seen him for quite some time... i think since Easter!!!! hahahah.... so when we reached there... luckily he still remembers me.. hahaha... knowing how bad is his Alzheimers Disease....

then after that... went back to college to try to get BIND to work..... sigh.. still couldn't....

Star Wars links

got this Store Wars from Edgar

and

the Sith Sense from Rainer

they are all quite cool i must say.... if there are any more, leave comments to this post with the links! i'll put em up

;)

almost there....

tomorrow is the day!!... the day to pass up my documentation!!!!

was home whole day doing it.... then had to take a break to go to church with mum.. it was quite a relief being able to get out from the house, see the outside and OTHER people!! hahah LOL...

so anyway, yea went to church... it was a long one as there was a procession after mass.... managed to follow through but towards the end i couldn't take it cause it was soo hot!! i was sweating like mad!!!!

then went for dinner with mum... we talked bout my cousins wedding in august.. both of us getting excited.. on who's coming, when the american people coming to see us in penang... how to bring granddad to KL for the wedding, where to stay in KL.. and stuff like that... mum was telling me that we had gotten the invitation card.. it's RED and its like a CHINESE wedding invitation card with at the bottom chinese characters... i mean, who in our family can read chinese? almost 70% of my cousin's family are caucasians!!! hahaha.. it seems my cousin like the chinese thingy about the good luck "8" (the wedding is on the 8th of August..), RED and in other words, chinese culture.. but luckily she's not going into the Tea Ceremony thing and have a cheongsam as her wedding dress!!! hahah.. poor Godma... she'll be heaving so much headache if that was in the agenda!!!! even now with the English way of wedding, also is giving her a headache!!

so that's about it for today.... back to documentation..... grrrrr

Star Wars madness!

was on Yahoo and MSN chat... yea i know i was supposed to be doing my documentation but had to have some company right?? nyeh nyeh....

so anyway... a friend of mine... he went to see Star Wars III on the first night it opened.... so lucky, he had a friend who was a Star Wars freak and got the tickets a week earlier.... fuhh.....

then was chatting with Rainer... he too half way through our chat he said he was going to watch Star Wars... not Episode III but all 6!!!! yes!!!! a Star Wars movie marathon!! (i knew there are people who are gonna do that...!!) gosh!!! don't know how he'll hold up... from Ep I, II, II to IV, V and VI...

let me see he started bout 6pm... estimate 2 hrs per movie, +- toilet, snacks, phone calls...

2 x 6 = 12 hrs
+
2 hrs (+- toilet, snacks, phone for the whole of the 6 movies)
= bout 14 hrs!!!! straight!!!

he'll be in a Star Wars daze... talk Star Wars, eat Star Wars, sleep Star Wars, shit Star Wars.. hahahahah......

GOOD LUCK RAINER!!!

documentation blur....

didn't move from my seat since after lunch.... doing what??? well first checking mails, checking friendster, blogs... then started on documentation.... ggrrrrr..... read and read and read... edit, edit and edit..... now i'm sooo blur....

sometimes i read... i know i'm reading but my head's blank.. it's like it has become a firewall... u know it's there but it can't get in the head to process!!!! grrrr.....

at the moment, not downloading anything... cause... harddisk.. no more space!! hahahahah.. got bout 2.5G each for C and D... shall leave it as it is... don't want to slow my pc.. got to get more CDROMs to make backups so that i can clear some space!! hahaha.... so now.. surfing is like a breeze.... woopiiiiii... hahaha sometimes i don't know what to surf also.. hahahah... anyway, can't bother bout that, i got to get back to ggrrrrr...... documentation...... i think the number of times i read my documentation can produce bout 5 harry-potter-thick books man!!!! hahahha...

think i'll get some dinner and back.... migh catch CSI and One Tree Hill too...

wonder how was last night, Ah Kong called to meet up at Coffee Beans.. but i didn't have the car and he was already there.... hmm... wonder who else went.. sigh.. so sad wasn't able to go.... booh booh... :_(

MyVi LAUNCHED!!!

the new Malaysian car; MyVi has been finally launched!!!! i saw the ad on tv yesterday, boy it was interesting!!! there was a group of ppl chasing after this car.. then it showed the car driving up the stairs, through buildings and walkways, driving backwards, side ways.. trying to get away from the rushing crowed... then like a robber running away from cops, all the possible roads or ways to escape is blocked by a very big group of ppl and in the end the car is surrounded by ppl... man that was impressive!!

check out their web site, cool too! everything is showed, specs, insides, outsides, colour and even u can send a request for a test drive! i filled that form.. see if they'll contact me for a test drive soon!! heehehehe can't wait to go to the showroom and see it for myself...

i know advertising is sort of like bullshit, but u will never know until u see it in the showroom.... :)

RED skirts!

is there enough room leg? i wonder..

the boot... don't think its spacious enough

my RED MyVi

gross!!!

was walking to college early today... the new supervisor wanted to see me and my network... and was walking using the same route i've always use... pass the playground, to the back lane of a row of houses, through the flats, across the main road, pass the market and to college.... but this time it was different...

2 school girls were infront of me, one on a bicycle and another walking, also taking the same route, when we passed the playground and to the back alley.. there was this old indian guy (like 50+ years old) stopped his bike, got down and started peeing in the drain!!!! i think he was shocked to see girls walking through the back alley.. i guess he must have thought that the alley was secluded enough for him to pee... i mean it is secluded but u have no idea how many ppl walk through there esp old aunties who walks to market or to the coffee shops!!! he must have been embarressed, but then again, he didn't bother to cover his.... dick... with his shirt, or move abit so that we won't see "it".... sheesh... for that brief second that i saw, he like had his whole thing out!!! OMFG!!!! i just looked down and walked pass VERY QUICKLY!!!! feeling very grossed out...

i was thinking... if u want to pee in the open like that at 12.30 in the AFTERNOON mind u..!! at least just bring it out abit, do it fast and leave!! must u zip yourself all the way down and bring "everything" out just to pee? gross man!!! common.. can't u at least hold it, go to a coffee shop and use their loo? there's like 4 coffee shops just round the coner man!!!

grrr.... really grossed me out... luckily i had lunch before i came out.. if not i won't have appitite to eat... for the two years i've been walking that route.. it's the first that i came across this...

so met my new supervisor.. had no idea what i was doing.. so explained it to him... he was ok with it, said i'll pass but he hopes that that lil bit that is not working, works.... so that he could give me more points... that's a relief!! i thought i'd fail or something like that... showed him my documentation and guessed its ok.. he'll need to read it first thoroughly though... which means.. so far so good... now just have to touch up my documentation, try to get BIND going and that's it!!

its just soooo close!!!! its like i'm standing at a gate looking through the grills, and just waiting for that moment when i get the key to open the lock to go through that gate.... man.... what a feeling!!!!

:)

bugger..

shit.... came to college to get some work done.. but NOOOOO.... the bloody lab had a class... fine.. it ends at 5pm and can still do something... but NOOOOO... there's also another class at 6pm!!! how the hell u want your student to do her thesis when u don't give her the opportunity to do it??? shit bloody ass holes!!!

so here i am in ANOTHER lab... waiting for 5pm.. so that i can quickly try to get somethings done and split.... sheesh.... shouldn't have come to college today if i'd known earlier.... but then again how am i to get work done if i don't go to college... right?? and my thesis documentation is due on the 30th!!!!! crap man!!!

friendster server sucks.... tried adding some friends, but it came back saying my list is full... damn and i only have bout 100+ friends while some of my friends have 300+... so why is mine full? WTF!!!! and writing friendster blogs.. suck too... it takes too long to load the pages....

just felt like ranting today....

SEFA - press release from The STAR

here's the article in the STAR newspaper of the Beach Cleaning in Port Dickson and the MoU with JTI (JobTrends International)

can't find me in the picture because i wasn't there... :(

Hayden Christensen

oooo.....

after watching Star Wars III, i just fell in love with Hayden Christensen!! he's such a babe in the movie, got that messy long hair look, the angry look, cool look, the way he walks, the way he kiss... and great body too!!.... was so glad that there was a peek at his 6 pacs!!! he's so hot!!!...

oooo.....

i can't imagine how much he has grown compared to Star Wars II, i guess maybe in that movie, they made him look like a young kid... not as hot as in Star Wars III... hehehhe...

been surfing on him, mostly for his pics... among all the pics i found, the ones from Star Wars III are the hottest... the other pics were from his other movies which made him look like an ordinary teenage "The O.C" and "One Tree Hill" type of guy...

i found out that he is MY age!!!! heheheh... so honoured!! and he was in The Virgin Suicides!!!! i didn't spot him in the movie, i think he was one of those young boys who were stalking the sisters... must watch it again and look out for Hayden.. heheh... he's much more popular in his other movie; A life of a House, On Higher Ground.. search in Google and u'll know...

so i have the pic below as my desktop wallpaper... i smile everytime i see it.. heheheh i know its cheesy but its not always that some actor gets my attention u know! below that are other pics i've found..


my wallpaper

bad boy


the dark stare


anger


bad dream - this is where he gets out from bed and have bout 2 seconds to see his 6 pacs!

those days...

went out to lunch with mum... we went to 1-stop.. yea that place!! the place that were packed with teenagers!! before Pranging Mall and Gurney Plaza was opened!

we wanted to eat Kenny Rogers... but its no more there... can't think of any other place that has Kenny Rogers.. anyone know??? so we ended up eating Satay Hut at the other entrance (behind Dave's Deli).. the satay there was good, nice, not so hot... then walked around after lunch...

man that place brought back memories... it was a place where i saw 911 live... supposed to see Kavana (but was late) and Backstreet Boys (was there but didn't hear about them before)... yea it was THAT long ago!!! it was also a place to check out guys, had the first cycber cafe (RM7 per hour), bowling and the first disco skating ring! (wasn't good at it though...) so many stuff happened at 1-stop...

headed back to college... found out that i don't need to get my documentation binded yet.. only do that after the Viva... so good.. i got few more days to finish it.. still no sound from my "source"... don't know what i'm gonna do about that small part that isn't working.... sigh...

had to walk home in the rain.. it started raining and continued till in the middle of the night.... no choice but had to walk with an umbrella... luckily it wasn't too heavy... if not sayang only my Skechers shoes...

sigh...

its a holiday today.... because of Wesak Day yesterday....

home whole day, surfing, doing my documentation... sigh.. what a day to spend a holiday uh.....

when dinner time came.. couldn't stand it.. had to go out and since i had the car, anna and i went for BANANA LEAF food!!! yummers!!! it's been so long since i had that... had extra rice too!!! nyeh nyeh nyeh.... we went to Innira's, Gelugor.. it's quite popular.. especially during lunch time.. packed man!

then went to Tesco to get some printing paper for my documentation... there were not so many varieties... in end, ended up getting some brand of paper 100gsm RM8 for 200 pieces... sigh....

*been surfing just a lil bit on Hayden Christensen... heheheh....

LOVE - good or evil

after watching Star Wars Episode III... it got me thinking... is LOVE good or evil... it is obvious LOVE IS GOOD AND LOVE IS GOD... but how people think of it, and do with it that makes it so confusing...

in the movie, there's the love of the Jedi knights, they are selfless, they care for others and its people, basically the good ones.. then there is the love of a married couple, love for each other and the love of i'll-do-anything-for-u

also there's the part of right and wrong... where the Jedi knights are taught to do right but want Anakin to do wrong... which drove him to confusion.. and because of that the two people he really trusted and believed, he didn't anymore, he couldn't.... in the end what really mattered to him was his love for Padme (what happen next? go watch the movie.. won't spoil it for u)

so the bottom line is... what is LOVE? should u love your people and not find a way to help the one u really love? or the other way round? love your loved one and not help your people? is doing bad for love, love?

i feel this movie has very many mixed feelings... it's 50-50, do this its right, do that its also right... and in the end, what is right and what is wrong?

i feel the writer of Star Wars is a real genious.. he has put all different types of feelings, situations with those feelings and turning it out into something we could never imagine of doing or happening.... i felt that after watching this movie, from all aspects of it, that there are many more other feelings that i haven't encountered...

AWESOME!!!!

OMG OMG OMG... HAYDEN!!!!!

today is the day... for Anakin to become Darth Vader!!!!

was at home the whole day, doing abit of documentation... dad came early so that we won't get stuck in the Wesak Day jam... the plan was to...

1- book Star Wars III tickets online
2- go park the car at Gurney Plaza
3- get the tickets from GSC
4- walk to IC Church
5- walk back to Gurney
6- have dinner
7- hang around
8- 9pm go for the movie

but what happened instead....

1- book Star Wars III tickets online
2- go park the car at Gurney Plaza

3- couldn't get tickets because the reference number given to me in email was not in the system. (what is this man, book online, get reference number and u can't get the seats u booked for??? )didn't want to buy normal tickets because only the front 2 rows were available, and because i HAVE a reference number, i should get the seats i booked for. so i spoke with the supervisor and insisted i have those seats. she said that when the booked seats were released for the public (which is 45 minutes before the movie starts) she'll print the tickets for me... she told me to see her and get the tickets at 8.15 pm....

4- walk to IC Church
5- walk back to Gurney
6- have dinner

7- 8.00pm went to find the supervisor to get the tickets.. she wasn't in yet.. went for dinner it seems.... fine...

8- 8.15pm, crowd getting bigger and line longer.. i went straight to the front and asked for the supervisor, she came out and quickly told the ticket lady to print out the tickets for me (it seems the supervisor asked her to do that earlier but she didn't...) so got my tickets.. quite good seats (like hello!..it's expected when i DID booked the tickets, damn it!!)... it costs RM10 each man!!! was wondering if here GSC Penang charged RM10 for SWIII, how much would TGV KLCC cost? since their normal movie tickets are already RM10... maybe it'll be RM12 or RM13?... dunno...

7- hang around
8- 9pm go for the movie

man... this is one episode where i could actually follow and enjoy? maybe it's because of Hayden Christensen? heheheheh.... and also maybe because it's the most gory-est Star Wars movie?

*gosh.. i'm so into gory scenes...

would love to watch it again..... ;)

dad - good mood

i didn't go home this weekend, had the car with me. my dad came to the house today before lunch because he wanted to take back the car for his long distance cycling tomorrow...

he was in a good mood today.. i saw him smiling, making lame jokes, buying me some yoghurt drink and ice-cream (but unfortunately not my kind of ice-cream). it was good seeing him in a good mood.. it's been a while and it's hard for him to be after all that he went through.. i'm glad to have seen him like that today.... wanted to go watch Star Wars III with him but he wanted to be back to prepare for his ride. it seems he's going to cycle to Kulim and Serdang (i dunno where is Serdang!) so yea guess he's excited bout that..

as for me, nothing much i did today... didn't go to church and found out that my cousin sneakyly went to KL.... so had to make plans for dad to come back to Penang to bring me to church... maybe this time we'll catch Star Wars III, but then again it's Wesak Day and it's a public holiday and i'm sure the roads gonna be jammed and Gurney Plaza is sure to be packed!!

today, was home whole day.. didn't go out... was infront of my pc the whole day.. isn't that sad? was reading blogs... sending mails... reading online stories.... watching That 70's Show.... a day all by myself....

something's wrong...

something is wrong with me...

as far as i know i'm a person who likes to eat and knows to enjoy my food.. yes i can be choosy and fussy about food at times, but i know when i'm eating good food... but last few weeks was terrible... whatever i ate, it tasted like nothing.. no ummphh.. no "yum i wanna eat more.." type of feeling... yes i've mention some stuff i ate and said yum... but that's like sooo occasional!... but what i'm talking here is the everyday food i'm eating, be it home cooked food or outside normal hawker food...

was out with mum today, for lunch.. didn't know what to eat... ended up with Sar Hor Fun... it was tasty.. but it was like any other Sar Hor Fun... i was telling her about my tastebuds for food going hayvok these few weeks... she said that she thinks i need a buffet!! hahaha.... well that could be true though... but i had one for Easter... and that was good...

i never did feel this way for normal food... usually it was either yummm nice nice (could have a second round) or it was yucks.. never eat that again (and force myself to finish it).. but now it's... ok la...

that's sad man.... it's one thing to be depressed, stressed with work, but it's another thing if i don't enjoy my food!!!!!

what's wrong with me??!!!

M'sian teenagers English

found this article in The STAR newspaper website


Recently, when I went to McDonald’s I saw on the menu that you could have an order of six, nine or 12 Chicken McNuggets.

I asked for a half dozen nuggets. “We don’t have half dozen nuggets,” said the teenager at the counter.

“You don’t?” I asked.

“We only have six, nine, or 12,” the reply.

“So I can’t order half a dozen nuggets, but I can order six?”

“That’s right.”

So I shook my head and ordered six McNuggets.

sad uh?.....

more pics of... MyVi

i know i'm a lil bit too obsessed with this car.. i mean to me it's a nice size, not too big and not too small.. price i think it's reasonable.. just have to go to the show room and have an actual look at it for myself.. cause when i start working, buying a car is the first thing i'll be saving for...

so yea... here are some new pics of the car being test driven in Sepang... they didn't show the red one, but on the colour board, it looks nice... the one they showed it's ORANGE!! what type of orange is that man... hmmm i think a yellow would look cute too!! surprisingly there's no blue either... hmmm....

MyVi- silver

MyVi- silver.. looks normal to me

MyVi-the signal light is on the side mirrors

MyVi- this is their orange.. no it's not the RED one that i like

MyVi- the inside

MyVi - grey.. dun like :P

MyVi - the green one.. that one my baby will like

MyVi - black one.. nice too!

MyVi - front of the gold one

MyVi- the air bag

MyVi- the back seat.. looks spacious but i dunno.. must go and see the real thing for myself

MyVi - 7 colours.. i like the red one :)

the feeling of lost...

i don't know why i'm feeling "lost" today... not lost as in i dunno what to do but lost as in, have no feeling... i'm not happy yet i'm not sad.. that kind of feeling.

i'm thinking it's because of my sleeping patterns... i should try to sleep early AND get up early... but then again, i've been with this pattern for nearly 2 months and NOW i'm feeling "lost"? so then again it might not be that... maybe its something else...

or

issit that i'm always alone until i've become numb to my feelings? i've been hanging out in my room most of the time (Streamyx rocks!!) obviously alone and when i'm out, i'm out in college in the lab all by myself ALL the time (yea.. no one seems to use the lab i'm using.. it could be said it's "abandoned") surrounded with nearly 25 pcs.. but then again i've been alone before for nearly 24 years (being the only child) and that shouldn't be a problem...

or

maybe my life isn't THAT interesting anymore.. not like how it used to be when i was a rebel during my late teenage years... but then again, being a rebel isn't everything and i know i have alot coming for me in my future..

but why am i feeling this way? isn't there anything that could satisfy me? isn't there anything out there that could make me go "wow!!"? i know i haven't been really out there in the world to even have an experience i can proudly say i have.. all that talk about the younger years are the best and it makes u who u are today is somehow false to me, yes, it has some proof to it but it doesn't make it all true either.

someone who had a terrible childhood could become a very successful adult, experiencing mostly everything. i feel it's how one takes every decision like it's the last. and even someone who had a great childhood could screw it all up and become a bum in future.

so did i have a good childhood? did i have a bad childhood? what i can say is that i did have a good and wonderful childhood during my primary years but when it came to secondary, it was all about fitting in, impressing everyone and trying to be "one" of them, being someone u are not until in the end, it didn't work and all your efforts were useless and not appreciated and u tend forget to be yourself or even know who u are. and come to think of it, because of that, it made me feel very angry inside and also loose my confidence which lead me to being a rebel, because being a rebel u ARE one of them, and u feel that u are something valuable to them eventhough u have lost your soul. and because u managed to get "in", everything and everyone seemed to be secondary. u didn't care.

thankfully i've managed to get my feet back on the ground, got my conscience back and back to reality that nothing good comes from being a rebel. i do miss the feeling of being a rebel, being needed, wanted and looked for, but i guess that could be used for better reasons in the future.

now since writing all that, i came to a conclusion that i'm in a place that is called "lingo" on earth. a place where u are not a youngster or a student and u are not an adult with serious commitments, u are no where, u are in between, u are stagnant, and that is the feeling of lost.... only time will tell if u are still there or have moved on.. only time will tell....

ahhh now i remember...

remember the thing i was talking about mango ice-cream where it's a rare type of ice-cream? well i just remembered that i have actually tasted mango ice-cream before... it was at Baskin and Robbins during one of the Dugongs gathering... we used to gather for ice-cream at Baskin and Robbins for its 31% off on every 31st day of the month. but we stopped because they are kinda of jelak of it even though it happens like once in two months or so...

today met mum for lunch at Pulau Tikus and went to Baskin and Robbins for ice-cream.. when i saw the Mango Tango that's when i remembered eating it before... long long time ago... heheheh... had one scoop for myself.. yum yum yummers!!!! can never get jelak of mango ice-cream especially from B&R....

now in college... back to work.... sigh.... and no car... SIGH....

Monday...

was raining off and on.... but luckily had the car... went to college and was in college the whole damn day... manage to finish all 3 chapters and half of chapter 4 of my documentation... got chap 5 and 6 and the compiling part of it, then i'm done!! woohoo.... hope Mr Darryl would help me out with BIND.. he's asking me to try to set it up on my own.. i did.. but i think it's abit too advanced for me... really need to get that working... i due on the 30th!!!

decided to go to town to get some fish food for my fishes.... went to CTY (Chew Thean Yang- the biggest fish shop/complex in Penang!! or S.E.A) got the fish food and saw some new fishes on display.. couldn't resist, had to buy another one... it's a lilly flower fish but of a different kind... this one was silver body with baby blue colours here and there on its body... looks nice under light... RM1.50 but with my CTY member card... got it for RM1.33 or something like that.. nyeh nyeh nyeh...

SEFA asked me to help them write contents for the website.. so finally did it and sent it over for them to check... hope it's ok.. don't know if its too much, too little or too informal.. if they accept it..watch it out at SEFA!!

advantages of blogging...

i'll come to that later...

Friday night...

went to fetch Ah Ma and Ah Kong for dinner... ended up eating Malay food this time.. haven't had some for quite a while... then didn't know where to go... wanted to go back to Ah Kong's place to burn pics but his better half didn't want.. it's ok... good also, me don't want to get stuck at home (or rather someone elses house.. me want to be OUT!)...

so we decided on the new Sega Fredo's at Upper Penang Road... nice place.. not too packed like the one at Gurney Plaza... here there were more "sophisticated" people compared to Gurney... anyway.. we sat upstairs and ordered... i had some non-alcoholic cocktail... boy how i regret ordering that! it's the same damn drink in Fish and Co.! hahaha.... other than that it was great... laughing, chatting, gossiping and admiring the new place....

then it all changed when Ah Kong saw his ex... man what night, talk about Friday the 13th!! soi!!... we were gossiping bout her and how after so long she didn't have at least a bit of change... this time Ah Ma had the chance to get a glimps of her.. i hope she's ok with all this.. after all it was like nearly 5 years ago when it happened... i guess this type of thing u can't help it but to have a lil bit of "feelings"... but as long as u are happy with the relationship u have now.. there's nothing that will screw it up... it's all in the past..

anyway, we were waiting when she'll leave and eventually she did.. bout nearly midnite... Ah Kong's friend had come over to join us.. another Eurasian... it was a cheer... he came with his wit and jokes and he's just too funny... Ah Ma and i were like laughing and laughing till she had to order another drink and i had to ask for more water... hahahah.... throat too dry...

there were so many crappy jokes we said that i told myself i'll blog about it but... now i can't remember.... (hey Ah Ma.. can remember any?)

it was 3am when i came home after sending those two back.... waaa so tired man... sleepy......

Saturday......

got up late... stayed home.. online surfing and watching That 70's Show... man i need to stop watching that!!!!

went to church.. it was the feast of the church and it was LONG....!!!! 1 1/2 hours man!!!! and the church was packed!!!!! at least the songs were up beat and were sung properly to keep me awake and occupied...

got an email from SEFA members... i didn't know that they found my blog!! hahahha... wonder how did they find my blog... anyway.. WELCOME SEFA members!!! and this leads to the advantages to blogging...

- let people know what u've been up to without telling the same story to each and every one
- practise your essay skills
- a so-called journal pour out your good and bad feelings
- it's "someone" that listens to u when u're lonely, sad, depressed
- opens an opportunity to write for SEFA website!

yes yes.. because of my blog, SEFA members want me to contribute writing for the content of the SEFA website... hahah i was shocked and honoured at the same time... come to think of it, people DO read my blog...

to all of u out there.. don't keep quite.. write in my tag, make a comment to my posts... show that u're there! i appreciate it! :)

and today...

dad has a PEA (Penang Eurasian Association) AGM today... so went with him for lunch before the meeting... during lunch i was telling him bout blogging and what SEFA wanted me to do to help out in the SEFA website... he asked if he could have a blog for him to write about his cycling... i was thinking.. oh shit.. now he may want to read my blog.. and i don't really want him to read... but i didn't come to that subject... i told him i'd send him the blog website to his email for him to register.. i hope he's able to follow the setting up instructions....

so i dropped him at the Heritage House (PEA club house) after lunch... and i went to watch Kingdom of Heaven at GSC... yes alone.. what to do? i didn't know the movie was 2 1/2 hours long!!!! had to make dad wait after the meeting... poor thing...

and now i'm home... was raining off and on... which is cool with me... it's better this than HOT!!!

got to really get back to documentation..... sigh.....

oooo... today's Friday the 13th..

i didn't realised today was Friday the 13th... not that it matters to me...

in college whole day trying to finish up my documentation but heck, one monitor to one of my pcs blew (no it did not explode to my face but just couldn't work).. asked the lab fellas to replace but the whole time i was there till i left, he didn't do anything bout it....

was waiting for a reply from my "source" to help my out with my final part of the network but... nothing.. so it's all documentation today...

feeling abit bored and it was raining off and on the whole day (no i'm not complaining!) so called Ah Kong and Ah Ma to see if they were free for dinner... and yes they were!!!! aahhh i'm so happy!!!

so will be off soon to go fetch them... dunno what to eat... hmmm....

Tentang Dia...

wow... what a movie.. no it's not like LOTR or StarWars or King Arthur... but if u like Sepet, u'll like Tentang Dia... the story is quite similar... very down to earth story... the co-star of the movie also acted in Ada Apa Dengan Cinta? as Cinta's tomboy friend.. i recognize her..

got the car from mum today because had to go to college early and get something settled about the problem with me and my supervisor... brought mum to eat at MAMA's a Nyonya makan place.. i've been there before but wanted mum to try... had Tau Yu Bak, Loh Bak, Otak-otak and Taugeh with salted fish... she liked it.. she even said next time must come back to try the other food... so went to college after that....and thought, why not go see the movie before it "expires" from the cinemas.... so went to catch the 7.20pm movie.. it started on time (surprisingly) and ended at 9pm.. it's longer than usual..

dunno why but feeling sleepy today.. guess maybe it's been cooling and i got up early... maybe i'll try to sleep early tonight...

documentation.... it's such a drag... the guide states an approximate number of pages per chapter... but i can't meet that number of pages!! i don't know what to write.. i feel like i have writen what is needed but still not enough of pages!!! sigh...

sleepy di.. lazy to write...

mango ice cream

have u ever heard of mango ice cream? yes!!! there is mango ice cream!! there's this pasar malam infront of my college and there's an ice cream van there and he's selling mango ice cream!! it's quite nice too... i asked him what brand is it (cause maybe i could get a tub for myself) but he didn't know. it comes in a big container from the ice cream factory and doesn't know what brand... sigh....

had a real roller coaster day today.... found out my supervisor is going back to Iraq this friday and expected me to give her a full draft of my documentation tomorrow!! sheesh!! and my due for the documentation is actually on the 30th! not tomorrow!! had a row with her on the phone this afternoon... and i came to a conclusion that i have to change supervisor because she won't even be around for my presentation! damn it!

went to college today and spoke to the coordinator, and he understood the problem my supervisor and i are having.. but there's nothing else can be done except change my supervisor.. so i hope the next supervisor will be kind enough to accept my network as it is and just guide me through the documentation...

this sucks man!!

presentation or like we call it in college Viva is on the 8th and 9th of June... so by then i'll be DONE!!!! yeay!!! (touch wood and hope everything goes well.. i cannot afford to postpone another semester!)

thanks to the advice my baby gave, he told me to be stern, put my foot down and fight for my rights as a paying student in the college... man i was really scared when talking to my supervisor on the phone, but she got so mad at me that i couldn't be the nice girl anymore... i had to tell her off...

hope tomorrow is a nicer day.....

washing machine on mother's day?

hhahah.. yea... a 10 KG washing machine man!!!

Sunday..

got up .... no FORCED myself up at 9.15am to go to 10am mass.. mum was coming to fetch me... felt so drowsy.... was out last night.. didn't think that i'll be going out at all yesterday but thank god for Ah Kong.... he said he'll come fetch me go makan and hang out... it was like "u saved my life!!" .... it's not like i'm gonna die or something but i was gonna die if i stayed longer in that house....

after mass, i thought it's Mother's Day and i got a GSC voucher.... so why not use it on her? so we went to GSC and watched Guess Who.... didn't watch the other newer shows cause it wasn't my mum's type and since it IS mother's day... so we watched that... i think she enjoyed it... it was sappy and hilarious.... i knew my mum cried.. (so did i... but i think it was some dirt in my eye.... bluek)

after the movie... we went home.... man.. when i reached home... i konked off!! was soo tired.. not enough of sleep.. heheh and i slept till dinner time!!! fuhh!!!...

dinner was nice... dad wanted to treat us in honour of Mother's Day... wanted to bring mum to Victoria Station (but didn't tell her..) while driving here comes my mum telling me to go to Pizza Hut... so ok... since the makan is for her.. we shall go to Pizza Hut...we went to the one in Inderawasih... when we reached there we saw the line was soo long that it was out of the shop and down to the road side!! my gosh!! no way we gonna wait like that all dressed up....

so we ended up at a chinese place for rice and dishes where we used to go for weekend dinners when i was a small kid... the waitress and waiters were different and i think so is the chef cause the food isn't like what it used to be... but it was good..

something is new in the house.... it was a new washing machine!!! ours broke or spoilt for about 6 months ago and clothes were hand washed.... so dad got a new washing machine!! it came on saturday.. so it was sort of a mother's day gift for mum... since she was complaining to my dad to get the washing machine fixed... and now she got a new one!! hahahha.... it's 10KG!!!! can even wash heavy curtains!!! wow... so we got a new toy at home...!

so Saturday night...

Ah Kong and Ah Ma came to fetch me and waalaaah!!! i became their driver!! hehehehe.. and i didn't mind at all!! in fact i was full of joy! heheh we went to Northam Beach Cafe to have dinner..for the first time i had PIE for dinner! hahahah thought i'd get hungry after that so i also had Hong Kong Chee Cheong Fun.. but boy was i wrong.. i was soo FULL!!!!

then we headed to Gurney Plaza.. wanted to hang out at Coffee Beans but had no place.. was packed... so ended up at Starbucks.. so was there chit-chatting laughing... gossiping... joking... updating each other on each others lives, advising, warning, helping... then later met up with my cousin and her bf... so a so-called Dugong gathering (there were missing dugongs..) happened.. and it was nice.. i was nice hanging out together... laughing... it feels like i had no problems then....

and by the time we realised it was 2 am!... shops were closing.. so had to leave.. ended at Kayu Penang Road.... but that didn't last cause all of us (Ah Ma, Ah Kong and me) were all sleepy.... and by the time i reached home it was 3am... fuhh!!!

what a lovely night out...

and Today...

went out with mum... it was nice.. did abit of shopping and eating... and by the time it was for me to get home it was 5pm!! so she gave me a lift to college.. was to meet my supervisor.. thought she'd want to see my network, discuss, see my documentation... but no...... waited till 9pm then only she showed up... sheesh!!! and not to say she wanted to see my network, she just took the documentation from me... and left...saying that she'll read it at home and will let me know tomorrow... sigh... ggrrrhhhhhhh......

u think that someone who's close with u, someone who u would think would listen to what u have to say about your day would lend u an ear to listen but don't.....in fact shuts u up in the middle of it... it sucks man!!!! it sucks......

a day at home..

like ALWAYS.... sheesh...

so.. at home... online... downloading... watching That 70's Show season 2.. heheheh.. i think i watch too much of it i feel like i know how each and everyone thinks and talk.. hahaha... feel like i'm one of them also... hahahah... got to stop for a while.. if not i'll be talking like them.. damn!!! hehehe...

mum's gonna fetch me for church tomorrow morning.. so.. looks like i'm stuck here in this house again... sigh...... me wanna go out!!!!! me wanna watch Tentang Dia!!!!!

*curtesy of Mr. Andre Reutens (me couz)

mum brought me to college today, so happy abit... but then got to walk back.. hope it doesn't rain then... hate walking in the rain.. it sucks... taking a break from reading and reading and compiling my documentation.. can't wait till this is over man!!!!

ohhh nooo!!!... was just at the Megapavilion website.. and Tentang Dia has only 3 shows per day!! that means it'll be gone soon in a few days time!! hope it'll last till saturday cause that's the only time i'll be able to go watch it... (unless some good soul would like to bring me out for a movie? heheh)

ok ok i'll stop saying RAINING!!!

yesterday was quite a day.. had a tiff with my baby... and we came to an agreement that we both agree that we don't agree on some stuff... and looks like i won't be blogging bout me "problems"... cause it's not nice for the both of us... but it the end.. it's all good... guess it's those times where couples get their "PMS"...

went to church yesterday.. for Assention Day.. went with my cousin and family... then went out for dinner... yum... had Wan Tan Mee... Chee Cheong Fun.... and bought back some nyonya kuih... yummers.... :)

so it wasn't that bad yesterday after all.. and i hope it'll be as good today... today... it's RAINING!!!!! hehehehe couldn't help it!

me wanna see Tentang Dia... but nobody wants to bring me!!! there's only once cinema here in Penang that is showing it, Bukit Jambul Complex and it's on the other end of the island.. i got to take a nearly 2 hour journey to get there by bus.. two busses in fact.. (knowing the waiting time and lousy bus service)... sigh.... maybe i'll try to go this weekend...

hey this weekend it's Mother's Day!!!!

MyVi.... Malaysian's new car!

was reading the advertisement teasers in the newspapers about the new Perodua MyVi... so went online to search for it in Google... and i found these pics...

being "this" close into finishing my thesis and about to go into the working world.. i started dreaming of what i'm gonna do and things like that... so one thing came up to mind was to save money to get a car.. and well i thought this new one was quite nice!! price also... ok.. same as the Satria like the one my dad got.... but then again pictures are different from the real thing.. will have to go to the Perodua show room to check it out.. see if it's still as small as their other cars or bigger...

this new car is said to be based on the Daihatsu and Toyota designed Sirion ( a.k.a. Boon, Passo, etc... ) and the name MyVi... some say it's My Vision, My Vehicle, Malaysian Vision, Malaysian 6th (6th Perodua car..) am really not too sure. the official launch will be on the 25th of May this year or so.. around that date.

prices range from RM42,000 to RM52,000. The low end model will be equipped with a 1.0l engine and manual transmission whilst the high end model is said to be a 1.3l engine ( with DVVT, possibly same engine as the Kembara and Avanza ) with automatic transmission plus dual air bags and ABS! there is also mention of sophisticated anti-theft ignition keys. if this is true the RM52k price is justified because it has better features than a similarly priced Wira with two exceptions; engine capacity and space.

well.. we'll see how popular this car will get and see if it's suitable for me... nyeh nyeh nyeh....

predictions....

predictions were correct!!!

- didn't see my baby on Saturday because he couldn't make it on time and then had no bus ticket and also he couldn't get up = CORRECT

- had a great time at Blur's BBQ on Sunday = CORRECT

- didn't see my baby on Monday because he was stuck at home (or sleeping) and by the time he was to leave there was no time to come to Penang (i was also abit sick and didn't feel like going out), in the end, it was better for him to go straight to KL = CORRECT

so the weekend was predictable and what's more important is that i had a good time at the BBQ... ate till i was bloated... one thing was, didn't really have enough of cake though... sooo yummy!!!! hehehe but it's all good.. everyone had a share and it wasn't my cake, so i shouldn't be so greedy!!! hehehehe....

Sunday.. what was soo funny at the BBQ was that one of the guys (Aaron - no not my childhood friend Aaron.. this is another Aaron) didn't know the surname to Ah Kong's and Blur's...

Ah Ma: (squeezing marshmellows through her teeth)

Fiona: eeeeeee (disgustingly)

Ah Kong: yes? u called me? (cause his surname is Ee)

Fiona and Ah Ma: *laugh* *laugh*

then....

Aaron: eh.. Ah Kong's surname Ee ah?

Fiona: yes la...

Aaron: luckily your name (looking at Ah Kong) is not Ee Wee Ee (or so i think he said that.. not too sure) because it'll become E.W.E as in eeeewwwwww

ALL: *laugh* *laugh* *laugh*

Fiona: eh... Blur's surname YEW u know!!!

Aaron: uh.... yes ah? (shocked/embarresed)

ALL: *laugh* *laugh* *laugh*

what a joker that guy.. hahah... and there were many many more... smart ass that one.. knows lots of stuff... photography, videography, gaming... check out his blog

after eating and crapping... we went in the house for the cutting of cake... yum.. yumm.. can't wait to try it... it was Chocolate Mango Cake!! nice!!! it was from Jenni's in Pulau Tikus.. that's where we (the Dugong's) always buy our cakes.

then to the living room for the opening of presents... it was cool... Blur got pressies she wanted and well one was surprising... Ah Kong got a souvenir from NZ and it was....... something made from Possum fur and was called "Nipple Warmers"!!! hahahahahah... it's true!! it looks like powder puffs (olden times where there were no foundation sponge, they used powder puffs) but it had double sided tape where u stick it on your nipples to make it warm... hahahah.. and he also said that there were "willy" warmers too!!!!! hahahahahh....

what a great Sunday night i had....

Monday was so so... didn't feel well though... and my supervisor called.. she wanted the first draft of my thesis on Saturday!! shit!! and i didn't really start writing it!!! i do have the materials but didn't start compiling it... better get started....

Today... met up with mum for lunch to give back the car.... got some groceries and got back home.. it's sooo bloody hot today!!!!!! DAMN!!!! decided not to go to college cause i got to start with my documentation....

ok the guilt's kicking in...... better go!!!
