June 18 Back for a new startIM back in KL for my new semester. Registration will be on Thursday, for my course /school.
I got back quite late last night. Typical Air Asia to delay flights (10 minutes – 30 minutes). Flight was supposed to take off at 7.10pm. However at that hour, Half the Queue for the flight boarding has not yet gone through the “boarding pass ticket tearing guys.”
Flight ETA – 8.50PM but Arrival was at 9.00PM. The plane was parked so far away! I had to walk from the end of the terminal to another end just to enter the building. NOTE ** Air Asia lands at KLIA LCCT – just steps – no aerobridges or stuff like that.
Anyway, I got in and took my suitcase. Wan was waiting outside, seated at the left side of the Domestic Arrivals exit. I have to say that he is very kind and I was thankful that he picked me up from the airport.
We exited the toll plaza at USJ (ELITE EXPRESSWAY) but end up L.O.S.T. For a bit. Yes! LOST and blurry. Supposedly exiting the toll plaza saves toll. NOT! We end up driving around Puchong. Met not one but two open system toll plazas at LDP. Miserable? We overshot the ramp to go down the Federal highway and ended up on the cable bridge Flyover. At least I know where to U-turn!....
U turn upfront, we were back on Federal and headed to my condo. We dropped the luggage and walked to Jalan Putra mamak stall since we were starving. Anyways, Wan drove up from Batu Pahat Johor, this morning and I told him to bunk at my place. We chatted till God knows what time – 2 in the morning….
Woke up at 5am… NUTS? I just woke up fresh…. Played Shania Twain on the CD player and watched a bit of Little Britain. I introduced Wan to Google Earth and we “explored” Kuching, Shah Alam, Johor, Perlis and lots more places which I don’t bother listing down…
YAWN!... Showered and went to the mall and got me meds. I come back here, its mandatory that I get sick.. Stocked up my Brufen, Zantac, and my Asthalin. Gastric knocking… we went to have brunch. Chicken Rice was the craving… took a peek at Chicken rice shop. The price is overwhelming!- U turn to the foodcourt….
At RM 5.50 would be the price for a plate of Chicken rice here in the metropolitan city. It wasn’t that bad although I wished there is “SINGAPORE CHICKEN RICE” over here… The chicken rice is so yummy and other stuff listed in the menu. Too bad this past two weeks I was not able to go there and eat. I did not even have a good bowl of Laksa… L
At least I ate KOLO Mee tough. Took away some with Ismail after watching FANTASTIC 4 – RISE OF THE SILVER SURFER.
I just cant help but realize that there are so many elements in the CGI are related to Charmed. The way that Doctor Doom killed and his cloak is so reminiscent of Julian McMahon when he portrayed “THE SOURCE” of all evil, Blasting power is like Piper’s and healing by the silver surfer is so Whitelighter / Avatar – ish!
Anyway, movie was Friday night June 15…. With Ismail, Adrian, Redziz, Azai, Jerry and Azahari at Star Cineplex. I cant help it but say, “I sik puas time cuti tok” I only went out with gang twice, movie and bowling. Bowling again with bro a couple of times. I did not even go to Saberkas / TJ / SP or anywhere shopping! Pathetic???
Its like – Yusri arrives at KIA today, Mum and dad flies off tomorrow…. And a few different trips, sometimes I ask…. And wonder, my “2 weeks” holiday down the drain? Where is it??
I didn’t slept much, I’m tired and whacked after final exams and I register for the new sem looking the same… worn OUT!
Being the type of person that does not have afternoon naps… I totally slept this afternoon due to “tired”. Part of why I hate traveling, I just get so worn out…
I just made an appointment with the tailor, gotta go later and see her at Cititel, she has to take my measurements for my “raya shirt”. I got material back in Kuching, and sent it to her shop yesterday, she was closed. Mum called and realized that she is in KL. So she has her measuring tape she is taking my measurements here…. Part of it I think its ridiculous… J
I got to go eat now. Starting to get hungry… till the next entry
PS :I got my head shaved again… So this is me shaven V3 May 24 feelings are weirdI have been sleeping or may I say overslept! this two days.... I simply cant wake up to the alarm which is ridiculous and due to that I missed my 8am Class yesterday... Biting on 2 couple of Chilly Padi the night before also did not help as I was attacked by very bad stomach ache... OB class at 10... I arrived "fashionably late" at 11am and on the way I almost ran on to the posterior of a stupid motorcyclist at Jalan Bukit Tunku because of his stupidity (again!) for not signaling bloody early and making a spur in a moment stop! and belok... No Offence to motorcyclists, they really should invest some money in good bright bulbs for their brake lights which are the same quality with the traffic lights since the normal ones would blow off their tungsten filamens in weeks. Not to mention dim and faulty signals. Some people turn left but signal right! WHATS UP WITH DAT???!!! MISCOMMUNICATION AND CARELESSNESS LEADS TO ANNOYANCE AND TO THE POINT OF LOSING THEIR FUCKIN LIVES!!!! With that said, the world's Grand design has its uniqueness. I just experienced.... Last night coming back from College, I went to send my laundry and made a stop to the ATM machine. Whilst walking uphill exiting my Condo and listening to "Mel C - Goin Down" on my Ipod, I just had the urge to ask whether my closest relative was ok or not... I didn't know why... So I typed the sms. No reply - so I guess he is asleep... In perspective, It is said if a close relative is experiencing pain or even death, Our Heart will know of the pain. Feeling uneasy or even void... Finally I was able to call him.... Poor Kid had the sniffles... and was KO-ed by his meds... Isn't it IRONIC? Dontcha think....... anyway,... with that said, I gotta get ready to go... I still need to go College although classes are canceled. Got meeting with my lec and with my group members... Finals happen in Saturday and I have not even taken my exam slip... I just hate the overcrowded account and exam department! May 18 hell of a week
Hell of a week…
I just arrived home after being stuck in traffic for about two hours. My Organizational Behavior(OB) class ended at 6pm. I felt terrible throughout the class with a hard knocking headache plus hot flashes (not the menopause type), The only way to describe it is having heat practically gushing out of my epidermis.
This was due to my hell of a week and the Pameran “Cuti-Cuti Malaysia” before that.
The time frame from May 13th to May 17th 2007, I can define it to be the most fatiguing, physically and mentally tiring for me as a human being due to the happenings that occurred in this time period and before that.
DEADLINES + Mid-terms + Responsibility!!!!
Three subjects taken this short – semester. Organizational Behavior, Mandarin and Co-curriculum. All taxing in their own ways. Don’t be surprised if anyone hears how much students hate short semesters. The time limit from 1st week till the finals is just plain ridiculous. Semester started back in the 9th of April and my final exams will be from 26th May until the 29th May.
Organizational Behavior Case study deadline – May 14th…. May 12th,had mid terms for Mandarin. Had lunch at SACC with Lina and Minie. Went around SACC Mall and saw Ladders match by WWE DVD. By the time I got home, at 1600, I was playing the DVD. Didn’t really ate dinner since I was lazy plus tired to even look at the kitchen. Mum called and told me to check out the HALAL food Fair at PWTC which is near my condo. Done with the first DVD, I went down to PWTC and when I got there I felt like I was in India + so freakishly out of place. There was a MIC meeting there and “I have never met / seen such a large number of Indian Population.
I went blur and called mum, and told her that there is nothing involved with Halal Food in the building. Told her to check the newspaper again, she totally mistaken the venue and Its at KLCC Convention Centre.
OH GOSH!
I was like WHAT?!
Frustrated and already tired, I stopped by the Mall and got a pack of milk, Bittersweet chocolate and a tub of Buds ice cream. I’m so having Cravings!
-Palak tension carik coklat- Teruk aku tok @_@
Got home and munched on the chocolate. Milk was out so had to restock. It’s the only thing I can drink before dashing of to classes especially in the morning, for the sake of lining my stomach and just surviving for another 4 hours before eating Brunch… (late breakfast = lunch).
I went on watching ladder match till midnight. Showered and then slept.
SUNDAY morning May 13th…
My crazy alarm rang at 9am on a Sunday morning. It was Mothers day beeping on my organizer. Called mum up and wished Mothers day greetings. Lina accompanied me to Halal Fair at KLCC convention Centre. My legs hurt since getting from the carpark to the KLCC convention Centre area via Centre court at the concourse was quite far. Not only that the area inside the fair was huge. By the time we were done and finding the exit there was a sign “200 more booths ahead”. Oh dear…
I has happy though there was a Sarawak booth selling stuff. I was not big on the cakes (lapis/layered) however I couldn’t resist kuih cincin, tebaloi, and some Lee Fah mee at RM 5 for 3 packs that contained 5 more servings and a free bowl.
The plan was totally for taking pamphlets for mum but I ended up cashing out Rm 38++ and KLCC carpark rates on weekends are not exactly cheap.
I started to do my OB case studies in the evening and when the clock was at 2am… I totally “screw it” I need to sleep…. Doing the case studies was quite painful and hard for the brain. I woke up Monday morning at 6am and continued typing. Printed 15 pages.
Monday morning it was raining cats and dogs with thunder and lightning… Thankfully Sumi smsed me to inform class cancel. Angel whom was supposed to follow me to class arrived and hung out here till I finished typing which was at 10am. She took the train home and I made my way to College. OB class at 1pm but I just came early so I could be filled in on a group meeting that was done by Sumi (my treasurer) and Wan (my Naib Pengerusi). Went to print purple front page for my case study assignment.
Got to class and went for ajk Induk (main committee) meet until 1600. My girls (secretary and Perak-kians) got props from the Ministry to aid in the Visit Malaysia campaign. Wan and I drove up to Ipoh and arrived at McD Gopeng at 7.30pm. Starvin, we ate while waiting for the girls. I barely finished a McChicken as I felt nauseous and wanted to throw up. This was contributed by having a hot dog bun only this morning from Hooha coz I had to rush as my gaps between classes were not exactly let me sit down and eat. My girls sontacted me during the AJK induk meet. Bad did not came so I had to collect money as Assistant treasurer for the Ajk induk. Gave the money to the president since I will be driving up to Perak I did not want to hold the Cash.
Met the girls and collected stuff. Ipoh is a nice city, contrasting to Kl, It does not have high rise buildings. Other than that, astonished Wan and I were when on the Expressway which is built quite high, clouds were floating left and right of view. There was also a waterfall on the way there.
However, having eaten a bad meal and not to mention late, Wan and I had gastric problems and “suffered” quite a bit during our drive back. He took over the wheel as we headed back to KL.
I got home by 1.30am. Slept at 2am. I was knocked out till 9am. I felt bad for Wan since he had exams at 8am and did not get any shuteye time. Thanks Goodness my test was at 4pm so I had a few hours to study. After the test, ate at McD again, this time a full meal since gastric wasn’t as bad as the day before.
The stuff had to be stored at our treasurers house since her crib was close to college. It was a lot and I was overwhelmed of the amount of goods given and the effort that the girls put into obtaining the prop. Thanks to Rezlin, Shahrun Nurul, Noofarrahana and Yunzi with their effort in their Land Of Grace hopes of having a good show was cemented.
Wednesday, my day started at 6am typing assignment. Thank
you Wan for the “assist” – JASAMU dikenang
Couldn’t type last night since all I wanted to do is sleep. Classes starts at 8am. My OB class was cancelled and only informed by the lecturer when we got there. I had to travel from annex 41 to block C since it was back to back. I went to Selasih and had breakfast with a short discussion. Met Yin and Intan, at their condo. Intan was rushing like mad since she was so late for her test. So Yin was doing the replica alone for The Leaning tower at Teluk Intan. We chatted for a bit and I helped her draw and cut some manila card so she could stick it to the tower. By 2 Sumi smsed and we headed to TESCO to get the mineral water packs for the group and I grabbed sushi for my lunch. Dropped sumi home and I met Kak Roza at the intersection, we talked for a bit and went off our respective directions. After that, met Wan at Bkt Subang, and headed back to college. However….
While driving, DAD called and gave me a whole lot of Sh!t. He just got my bill claims for the month. I was not expecting an atomic bomb to erupt just because I asked for 300 for my Smart tag, reload and Electricity bill. That old bloke must have forgotten that he visited and blasted 2 a/c on and not turning them off with the lights when he came with his Favorite Engineering son. I even had to stop at the emergency lane to take the call as I totally could not concentrate. I had a few bad days and the last thing I needed was a Finance lecture from “Prof daddy”.
I was enraged for a bit with absolutely no mood, and the Naib Pengerusi for the Ajk Induk wanted groups to send representatives to kolej to discuss on the canopy / tents position. It was so last minute! Sms received at 3.20 and he wanted us to arrive by 3.30pm.
Mum and Miss Then were so sweet to “pujuk” me and calm me down. I really appreciated that. I wouldn’t know what to do without them…
I phoned my secretary to inform my Equipment Biro to be there but it seems that when Wan and I arrived at 4pm, Secretary also just arrived… Anyway, all went well as info was given and tentative was given out.
Back to Sumi’s and got to stuff. Went to TESCO again and had
dinner. There was a new stall opened there by a Chinese Muslim guy. I was in
the mood for soupy noodles and Hooray!!!
Setting up the tent, it was going on till after midnight. Wan and I had to go since I had to drive back. Creativity and spontaneous things happened while decorating. One of the equipment guys went to taking the extent of taking his wooden Venetian blinds off his window and set it for the “pelamin” backdrop. We even looked for extra tables from scraps taken from behind block C after chopping some leaves at the corner for our props. Its because we had a “kampong” theme and the leaves were used to be our front entry.
Wan stayed over with me and one of the reasons is to make sure we wake up. If I’m alone I might just keep on snoozing the alarm til 10am. On the way to College, at 6am, picked up Fadila (comel) as she wants to be called at KL SENTRAL and took Kesas to get Angel. However at the Seafield interchange I took the wrong fuck!n ramp and instead of heading to Shah Alam, I had to U turn at Putrajaya Interchange… DAMN!
Finally exiting at Ebor, traffic sucked at Bt 3 as police was controlling it. Got to Sumi’s and started loading stuff. The next second Wan and Sumi were chopping the Pamelos ad I was dropping stuff at the tent. Picked up the second round of stuff (valuebles) and unloaded the CD’s, laptops, and buntings to be returned last.
Rezlin made a beautiful princess with the costume however Comel (the makeup artist) went overboard with her makeup till her eyes stung. We made it in time for the ribbon cutting and sold caps, t-shirts, gave out pamphlets’.
Time was freakishly running slow today as t-shirts finished selling at barely before 11. It was so hot in the field and everybody is fanning…. Pamelo testings were a great hit as most did not have breakfast. Attractions were also… - Flash presentations, “Pameran” on History, Places Of Interest, and water testing from the “Labu Sayong”…
By the time noon reached stuff was finished and sold. Angel and I went to Sarawak booth and had laksa. Unfortunately its lacking in a lot of taste… quite mild, I think they did not boil the prawn with the shells as the sweetness was not there, too much santan and the sambal used was not enough. I just have to be a critique… since I have had better.
The certificate ceremony marked the closing of the event “Cuti-cuti Malaysia 2007”.
Dropped the stuff at Sumi’s and by 4pm, went to OB class. I was tired and sleepy during that class for a bit. The LCD projectors and lights off did not really help my eyes open. Angel was also feeling sick, dropped her on the way home. I just did not have the heart to leave her at the train station, so I took Kesas back and dropped her at Bukit Jalil. I got home using the New SMART Tunnel. It just opened and my drive was a breeze. Traffic backed up from Jln Tun Razak in to the tunnel so I exited at Jalan Sultan Ismail / Imbi exit which is next to Berjaya Times Square. Police controlled in front of the Pudu prison intersection and traffic was slow. As the traffic flowed I was lucky that I moved straight to Parlimen road non stop. I took the Kenny Hill shortcut behind Bank Negara as following Jln Kuching, I will never get home as I was feeling feverish already.
I had baked beans and tuna sandwiched for dinner, showered, phoned my bro for a while since we have not talked for quite some time (my Reality) swallowed my pills and landed at 9pm.
Woke up this morning at 6am with a sore throat, needed to drink. Wan smsed that he broke his sleep record as he crashed to bed at 4pm and woke up at 5.45am… I went back to sleep and woke up when Liz called. So sweet of her to say hi and mum called after that…
Gonna make breakfast now. Gotta go college for Pre-registration and have a post-mortem meeting…
To think that this ride is over, I got presentation week coming and finals starting 26th May… Bummer! April 29 Spirit Of THE VictimEmbedded, a trailer of Spirit of The Victim.
Its been way too long since I went to the Cineplex for a movie.... I went with Addy despite the crazy Friday evening traffic, we made it to Mid Valley GSC and watched this Horror Thai film. GSC is just do bloody cold. Even with layers of clothes I still freeze.
Somehow this movie is about reliving/ acting the scene of a crime.. Why? I just dont get it... and somehow provokes the dead as it is said that re-acting scenes of death is torturing the dead. It has layers to the storyboard, a girl from acting class to accepting a job with the liutenant and getting possesed...
I would reccomend Horror movie goers to watch this flick as it is disturbingly scary. I reminds me of Pontianak Harum Sundal Malam since it has an element of traditional dance and possesion...
Watch the trailer, make your way to the cinema for this flick...
S.C.A.R.Y.....
SOME PEOPLE MIGHT GET PARANOID WITH BASEMENT CAR PARKS AFTER WATCHING THIS...
Its a week of public holiday madness
It was a holiday on Thursday but I had classes (KOLEJ RAJIN GILAK KALI!) since it was the Agong/Kings ceremony happening. Motivated still, I just went without complain.
Its just something about me that… in a new semester Feelings of motivation seeps in and wanting to do better creeps in. However, little that I realized that concentration just does not happen consistently in a 3 hour lecture.
This week, I have reflected that my mind has floated away somewhere else especially in the last hour of class and being able to snap back to reality and concentrate is just hard. My lenses screwed up and it was just painful to wear, I took em off before leaving the house. The thing that sucked was my eye (right) was painful, sore, dry (however describing it) it was just plain uncomfortable. It’s impossible to open my eyes and with the dry / heat air + DUSTY I was accused of asleep…
“AdAKAH PATUT?!!”
Anyway, it was better when I got home and dripping eye drop on them.
--- I had class on a holiday where most people would not be having it --- @_@
Saturday also classes happened… namely because a schedule couldn’t be worked out to have it on a different day. Waking up early again or at least trying…
Typical of me à I woke up slightly late…
I checked traffic on ITIS and Federal was looking smooth. I didn’t have breakfast so just swallowed Zantac before leaving. Cruising on the highway, I saw Shandy at the bus stop so I signaled in and gave her a ride. Dropped by Perdana and picked Lina since her girls were not going to class. Half of them went back home to their hometown. Oh how I wish an underwater Expressway link would have been built from here to Borneo East Coast, I would have sprinted home weekly /monthly. Flying is an option, however the hassle to travel to the airport is just plain taxing. 5 hours wasted just to get to the destination… + the typical ½ hour delay … Air Asia travelers would know.
Finding class was another issue. The class was not opened so driving from an annexe to another with U turns is just plain annoying. Why can’t the College let us use block C? is not like its occupied on Saturday???
Anyway we got a class which looked like an ex-conference event room which used to have a stage, based on the carpet void in front and marks on the wall. Although, I was thankful that the A/C worked unlike last Wednesday. I was suffocating due to lack of air and not working A/C’s in the previous classroom. There were also not enough chairs, àlatecomers had to sit in front ON THE FLOOR!.
Its terrible that the Dean has promised chairs, / allocation for more chairs but it has been two weeks since anything has been done. Crappy I may say. I also pitied the lecturer whom also had to walk around blocks of shop houses just to find a class for us.
I find this situation completely UNECCASARY and should have been resolved during the first week. For God’s Sake it is a 3 hour class.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Anyway, class went well on Saturday, and we are starting to learn some Chinese characters which will be on the exam assessment. After the class had lunch at Carlton with Lina and I had Chicken Soup… (truly comfort food since I have been craving)
After that she was sweet enough to accompany me to Perodua Car Service, which took about an hour. Had my car serviced – a relief since I kept postponing it…
Picked Mini at Seroja… almost got lost in the winded highway roads and interchanges… and dropped the ladies at Perdana.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I got home… dumped my bag and stuff…. Got a haircut with Winnie at Beauty Extreme (very nice girl) and got Groceries. Got home, and DAD was home..
I had to sent him to Puteri Park Hotel… he had a meet or something.. (didn’t bother asking) and went home to finish dinner… Showered… and slept…

April 26 Rose in a wind
A Rose in the Wind
March 20 cookie monster
March 09 finallyI was sick a few times last 2 weeks and last week. felt so miserable. The assignments and all nighters and mornings took a toll on me. I just had to swallow the pill and crash. Today it was over... for ths week at least. Im going back to Kuching at 6.25pm, (my flight postponed) Airasia smsed me... from 5pm. Im gonna go KL sentral at 3pm. I just did a few things today, I woke up at 5am and jumped in the shower. Started typing my report for the Transport ministry (Software project management assignment). I couldnt do it last night due to tiredness. Yesterday woke up fairly early and sprinted of to Shah Alam and fetched my group member Amal Hayati and we went to Putrajaya. I used the highway road which I have tried out with Kak Nor and Abg Wandy. I almost got lost when I got confused with a junction. The interview went swell. The lady, Pn Suzanna was a very nice lady and an ex-lecturer so the interview sorta felt like a lecture. She was helpful in answering questions. A lot of new information Amal and I have gained and most are new and unknown since ministry projects are kept confidential. Had lunch at Parcel D underground cafe. The architecture was kinda cool. What was hot? weather. The sun was blazing and finding parking space was utter hell. Immediately we went back to Shah Alam and studied a bit before exams started at 1530 to 1830 hours. Got back and did errands for mum, getting her De Wajah stuff at the Mall. I did a couple of pages (Draft) for my report and was so sleepy and tired that I didnt know what I was typing. What came out on screen didnt make sense. I shut down and went to sleep, set alarm at 5am. After printing out everything I went to Kolej and sent in assignments with Amal. After that I went back home. Back to the Mall again, mum wanted prepacked salad leaves. Got those and picked my laundry . Got home and packed my stuff. I just made Tuna sandwiches for the day, a couple extra to be eaten at the airport since I wont be eating on the plane. (AIR ASIA). Gota go shower and get ready. February 19 Tell me by Diddy and Christina AguileraI just love this track. I was not a big fan of Diddy before this but with this collaboration... and his new album he has won a new fan..... Big breakfast...I woke up so late this morning. It was great anyway to just wake up in my own time without having to snooze the alarm over and over again. I was in a mood to cook this morning and since I have not made myself a set of "proper" breakfast in a while I think Ill post it. I just used whatever was left in the fridge "mushrooms left that I didnt used for the my pasta sauce a few days ago, finishing my sausages (cheese infused by AYAMAS) and eggs. Got the baked bean from the cabinet, - might as well use it since its been there for 3 weeks although expired May 2008.
By the time I got out of the shower, cooked and washed the pan etc. its already noon. I'm so bad these days having a 2 times per day meal routine. Yesterday was worse, had muesli cereal at 11am and pastrami sandwiches at 8pm. Thats all I ate. I didnt even know it was late till I realised that it was dark. Lights from the city skyline happen to illuminate my Condo space since I had all the windows opened and curtains drawn.
Gotta get back to my assignments. till next time.
p/s ... Its 2nd day of Chinese New Year and I'm not exactly back home with family. Campus life sucks as holidays are so short. Might aswell stay and complete work rather than go home and b*tch about assignments that are not complete. (Been there done that)! November 25 Back TO S(College)ool
I was back in Kuching last month for the holidays (Raya holidays and back here on Nov 15th). ABOVE: IM IN SILVER THIS YEAR WITH MS THEN AND HER HUBBY, A PIC OF MY NIECE VIA MMS FROM HER MUM (AINT SHE CUTE?) Flight prices were crazy and my GRADS membership which entitles 50% student discount was expired. I had to book an Airasia flight on Nov 15th as days after that the prices were just overboard. My flight costed RM69.99 exc tax which was considerably ok. Im mainly a month backdated here mainly due to being busy and lack of Internet time back home and stuck at the shop. Mum flew to Vietnam so I had to fill in for her during her absence. I
http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,1759,1777890,00.as... (an article on the shuffle)
____________________________________________________________________________________ Back here, met dad and drove him around till Monday (20th Nov) and he flew back. Mum also flew in to visit a close family friend whom was in the hospital post-surgery. Sadly she passed away a few days after we last visited her. May she find peace and, may we all take a minute and recite the Al-fatihah for her and all Muslims, friends and family members that has gone before us......
In disbelief, dazed and surprised, I was jumping like crazy happy and delighted that I actually won. I drove to the Channel [V] office in Section 14 Petaling Jaya and claimed my price. When the guy called me and said it was big, he was not joking.... I had to sign a couple of papers and I was on my way home with my price. Here is a pic of the Labseries range of products and my new Samsonite Backpack. Thank you to Channel [V]. The sketch that Joey and Dom had at London and the Ghetto was hilarious and educational too.
I went to KLCC last night and bought my book for class. As far as class is concerned, a lot of familiar faces as we all have been acquainted last 2 semesters. The class was lectured by my Dean. It was scary though for him to teach a class, a man with such power and reputation. This has been an eventful month, up and downs, loss and gain.... Simply a life cycle By the way on my first day of class, driving around Shah Alam was a nightmare, I lost track of the roads and made a couple wrong turns at the roundabouts. Miserable for being so rusty on the roads, I gave up to go to Hidayah at Sec 17 and bought a Sandwich at Shell along the Expressway instead. Im gonna prepare dinner now, so I gotta run.
October 21 Ginger beer...
first of all, last night I had dinner at this Thai restaurant in JLN U Thant near the American Embassy, the place was great, ambience was very nice and food, I would give a 4 outta 5 stars. However, services could have been improved. Dinner was held there as I tagged along with usu and friends for Uncle Dav's birthday dinner. I got home this morning at around 10 i guess and showered. I started packing stuff for my flight which is tomorrow, back to Kuching. 1 thing that I hate though, leaving the apartment for a month, I have to clear the fridge. Dinner - wise I made angelhair pasta with.... the craziest mix of items, I had a drumstick leftover from my black pepper chicken that I bought yesterday, the other portion was shreded as sandwich filling. I mixed the pasta with the black pepper chicken pieces, saute'd with olive oil, basil and Bundaberg's Ginger Beer and a dash of honey. I've never done anything like this before, but the meal was absolutely wicked! The chicken had a blend of black pepper flavour infused with the ginger beer taste and honey. Outrageous? After this I'l be scrubbing the saucepan and plates.... til next time October 18 its oVer!!Its laser time!! just a lil' quote from the Botsmaster, Ive been YouTubing some old cartoon clips and stories from the late 80's and the 90's. Gosh! Feels like a kid again. I was watching from Hikari Sentai Maskman to Masked rider black Rx to Xena Warrior Princess and a few Ladder matches from the WWE (then WWF). My semester 3 is finally over. HooRah!! Time sure flies fast, registration last June, classes, assignments, and of course exams, everything lifted off my shoulder til mid-November when my new Semester starts. I always look forward to a new start, new classmates, new challenges, new subjects and more sh*t from the new a$$es that I would have to encounter. This semester, looking back was challenging mainly having 2 "counting numbers" classes back to back namely Finance and statistics. I so hope that I do well in my exams and not screw up, as for Islamic and Communicative English, reading was definately fun in a University point of view. Its not like the same thing that was learnt in school but critically more technical I think, more brainstorming, more twists and turn and the unexpectable plots and answers expected from the lecturers. Socially It was better too as I got to know who are real to me and pin point the people that I should or should not be with. Thats the thing that make life sucks! You cant simply trust whomever you want as It bites you in your ass. The dining at new restaurants, new places in the nooks and under the bridges hidden cafe's are such a wonder. New hang out places, (I didnt even knew about Tanjung Harapan before Lina and her housemates intoduced it to me), the party was fun as I missed the beach. Sympathetically I may say the last time I went to Damai Beach in Kuching was last December. God, I'm mad, mad with the sand, air and sea, One of these days I may just bring out my Boomerang to play at the beach when I'm back home of course. I was very clubby musically and quite jazzy. I got Janet Jackson's album and planning to get Justin Timberlake's latest which features SEXYBACK. Rockwise, I was so hooked to Rockstar SuperNova that I downloaded songs sung by Dilana, Toby, Lucas and Ryan Starr. I even bought the originals from Nirvana - remebering Kurt Cobain with tracks brilliantly sung such as Lithium, Penny Royal Tea, and Smells like Teen Spirit. I even spent time to arrange my playlists on my ITunes, Hard techno beat remixes, Jazzy stuff with some soul (mainly Joss Stone), and a big playlist on songs that I would wake up to and hit the shower for. With my last exam paper set and done yesterday, I really spent time sleeping, I woke up at Noon today, (thats somethin called rebound) in my sleep cycle as I was deprived of a good nights sleep last two weeks. Today I wake up refreshed and anew! and having my club beats shuffled in my playlist so I can hear I bit of everything, from the thumpa thumpa to the Bjork's Violently Happy. Feel like hitting to the pool, since its not raining compared to the past few days. Til my next entry........ -GaMe oVer- October 16 Feelings!....In this world, You may love it, Some may hate it, Love and despise, Just feelings from a human heart, Emotions, they are complicated, Totally different from physical impulses, Feelings again, From people around you, Around us, Although its not all about us, There is always a bigger picture. Why im I obliged? Responsibilities, consequences, all part of life? Could escape from it but It may, Bite me in the ass, Threefold the pain, The Hurt, the feelings!
Why do we feel? I sometimes want to be, NUMB and uncaring, Although unworthy, Who am I to be? Who am I to act? What is my stance? What shall I be? Do I reckon, recognize myself In this hazy dream? Reality check!! Some ain’t a dream but to surreal To deal with insects, silly, foolish, so so bullish! So dumb and unworthy, The heart just feels, aches, Sorrow and anger, Not to sound pitiful but truthful! Truth Hurts! Oh yes its damn true, They exist but constantly an illusion, Perspective-ly real or just surreal? The Void in the the heart, feels numb right now, But still have to stay strong, And smile with grace, To handle the persona’s And situations Without feeling insane, Just wanna drop the ball, Kick the bucket, Or stabbed with millions of thorns from the bush of roses, From the black black heart, Should I? Or should I shield myself, And be such a good actor, Truthfully or another scene? In evanescent, Do I exist? Or all is just a hologram? Sophisticated illusion…… Feelings from the heart, Emotions in me, Bottled up just to be destructive Released like a volcano, Tectonic acts getting unruly, By night till dawn and dusk, Mass destruction happens! Should I turn back and reflect, Thyself as being of God, Or simply satanic with a grin!
I’m contradicting myself as always, Sigh! As I breathe out my resent, Relieved? Totally I’m not, Just cold in the icy void, Of mixed emotions, Anger, sadness, just pitiful! Strife, famine and war.. Or just plain discord? All I can’t seem to explain Or get hold of reality? I despise thee, Insolence being, Why do you exist?? Why do I happen?? If all is just a bad investment, Or a plain waste of your gold bricks in the mint? I’m lost, but I’m happy, Although In void there are some who care, Who love me as I am, I appreciate thee, As love soars, Nothing is stronger than that, Your love for me has lifted me up, From the void, Saved me from the severed scalds, Appreciate you all L.O.V.E -truly- “yusri” October 12 MY 21ST B'DAY
I'M 21 YEARS OLD! AS FOR MY B'DAY PARTY WAS CONCERNED IT DID NOT HAPPENED ON THE 8TH AS I DELAYED IT TO BE ON THE EVE OF THE 9TH OF OCTOBER. TIMING SUCKED THIS YEAR SINCE I HAD MY FINAL EXAMS ON MONDAY MORNING.
THE BIRTHDAY DINNER WAS AT MY AUNT'S APARTMENT SINCE I WAS NOT INTENDING TO EAT OUT. TRAFFIC WAS CRAZY WITH THE HAZE AND RAIN PLUS PEAK HOUR TRAFFIC IN KL CITY CENTRE, NO ONE WOULD WANT TO GET STUCK IN THE GRIDLOCK. AUNTY MERIAM MADE ROAST LAMB WITH ROSEMARY, BAKED POTATO (MY FAV), GRILLED PUMPKIN WITH ONIONS AND OF COURSE WE ALSO ATE SOME GRILLED CHICKEN AND KOLO MEE WHICH WAS FLOWN IN DIRECT FROM HOME. I BOUGHT MY CAKE FROM THE LEGEND HOTEL WHICH IS SIMPLY NEXT DOOR TO MY CONDO BUILDING. THE LADY AT THE COUNTER WAS A VERY NICE LADY. AS FOR BERISI LOUNGE COUNTER SERVICES IS CONCERNED I WOULD GIVE THEM (HER) A FIVE STAR RATING. SHE EVEN CALLED ME UP IF I WAS GOING TO PICK MY CAKE UP. I WAS STUCK IN TRAFFIC COMING OUT OF SOGO CARPARK INTO JLN DANG WANGI.
THE CAKE (BLUEBERRY) WAS ACTUALLY COVERED WITH WHITE CHOCOLATE AND WAS ONE OF THE SOFTEST TEXTURED, YUMMIEST CAKE THAT I EVER HAD WHICH WAS BEFITTINGLY SPECIAL SINCE IT WAS MY 21ST B'DAY. I EVEN SLICED HALF OF THE CAKE PORTION TO BE SENT BACK TO KUCHING TO BE SHARED WITH MY OFFICE AND THE STAFF AT THE SHOP. CRAZY EH? THEY FLEW BACK ON THE 10TH AND AUNTY MERIAM AND I SENT MUM AND ISMAIL TO KL CENTRAL. TO BAD THEY HAD TO LEAVE SO SOON. AT LEAST HAVING THEM OVER WAS WORTH IT AND HEARTWARMING.

Breathe, You get me so, October 03 MY NEW RADIO ...
I finally had my car fixed and I purchased a new radio with CD at BROTHERS Kelana Jaya. I saw this sleek Sony Xplod series and fell in love with it, not to mention it matches my car interior colour. As happy as I am, One thing that I wont be looking forward is choosing CD's from my stack to stuff into the Glove box. Went to Jaring restaurant at Subang/SUnway area, I came back there for the sake of the yummy yummy beef soup and bubur Cha cha.... GUILTY! as I am. I also couldnt resist Nasi Kerabu.... Good thing it was along the LDP highway stretch and not far from the exit. I had a wonderful breaking fast with my aunt yesterday, Today its even better, I'm invited over to her apartment for Laksa Sarawak. My opinion, Fasting month does not slim you down.... it makes you eat more, crave more and fatten up...... Tell u later about the laksa..... September 24 FRIDAY 22ND SEPT
I HAD NO CLASS TODAY -HOORAH!- I WOKE UP EARLY TODAY. IRONICALLY.... I GOT AND SMS FOR MY AUNT. Apparently Calamity has struck again. Last Thursday my car got broken into, Thursday her car got hit by a bike when she was turning into a junction. I accompanied her to Jln Bandar Police Station since she had to do paperwork stuff there, and clarify matters with the 3rd party. My opinion, The building was quite old and scary in a sense, I just cant understand the emphasis on cleanliness. Its terrible and its a Traffic Police HQ. I think its terrible enough ciggarate butts and boxes are in the potted plants instead of the waste bins, the air conditioning is on but the doors are wide open, not to mention the ciggarete infused air in the offices. Smoking in Air con room is bad enough, the mosaic floors are not mantained, imagine the condensation of air from the cold air in the rooms and the heat from the corridor. My opinion, its filthy and talk about the government, TAK NAK campaigns and Keep the nation Clean??? The bad examples potrayed by the law enforcers when people visit the place, its such a shocker to me!!!!
Oh well I dont want to talk much about it. Picked cousin Marc from school with my car. He was so happy to see me.... :-)
We drove a couple blocks away from his school and has lunch at this cool Korean Restaurant. Here are some snaps that I took with my MOTORAZR V3i...
Doesn't that look yummy. The rice was quite nice with seaweed on top, beef, egg, some creamy stuff that resembles mashed potatoes, "sambal ikan bilis" It was at a Good value at RM15......
AFTER THE MEAL....... PLAYTIME! We got home after that, I went to Perodua (Keramat branch) and ordered parts for my power window switches and a digital clock for my Kancil. After that i got back and babysit Marc for the night since his parents had a dinner function to go to.
pasta day 2....
I also toasted a couple of bread and spreaded it with garlic butter.
The drink that you see is a glass of Lemonade that I i got from TESCO. I kinda got addicted to it...... so yummy and refreshing. |
