Happy ending ^_^

Today I went to Cempaka Cheras to watch the Imovie competition and to play football with my cempaka footballers. I arrived the school at 8:30am and had a small chat with En.Nizan. After walking around the school for an hour En.Hemi told me that the Imovie screening was cancelled because Dr.Rizal just came back from overseas yesterday. That was a bad enough start for the day and what made it worse was that I received an sms from ai nee saying that she would not be able to watch a movie with me if she had no transport back home.


However, I remained optimistic and finally the good news came at around 11:30am and I went on to pick her but to realise that both my driver and I didnt know the place so we kept looking and looking for her college. Until when we found UCSI college, it wasnt where she was studying as there were 2 of them, the new and the old one. I think she was becoming impatient as her tone of voice changed. But anyway, we got her finally and she looked gorgeous.

We went to leisure mall to watch a crappy movie called Wanted. How can someone bend a bullet like Beckham's freekick? The speed of the bullet is just too fast to be affected by the swerve of the gun. The last part was most ridiculous. The girl shot a bullet which went through a think 5 ppls' heads standing in a circle. What a brilliant idea by a brilliant director. Sigh.

After the movie ai nee was indecisive of whether to go home by taxi and get scolded or to follow me to school and put the question of how to go home behind the mind for at least that moment. I forced her to follow me to cempaka school and she did. haha. the taxi driver who took us there was the funniest man i have ever met. I swear he would be the next Stephen Chow.

Football at cempaka was disappointing. I played very badly, one of the worse performances in my life. I was quite surprised to see Jon to improve so much. He played so much better than me. While I was playing football ai nee was doing her college homework in the canteen and after I finished bathing, we went to the guardhouse to get transport home. At first we thought we would never go back home as there were no taxis willing to come to this area until ai nee's coincidental plan to get derek to drive us to leisure mall for dinner and wait for simon lim to get us to kok keong's mom and hang around at kok keong's house until we get transport back home.

At kok keong's house we ate dinner and sang karaoke. Ai nee went back at 10:15pm when her cousin sister was free to pick her up and I still couldnt get any transport home so I decided to stay overnight. Simon was so shameless as he asked kok keong's mom to send her home rather than getting own transport. Anyway spending time with ai nee was fun and i hope could spend more time with her next time.

Second lesson..

I had my second driving lesson today. Today was not at BSC but at the PJ safety driving school. Today's lesson was to park the car at the slope - slope parking. lol.


Balancing was tough at the slope. Stupid kancil gave out so much noise when I stepped on the accelerator and the engine died quite a few times because i estimated the speed of the car by the noise of the car when i stepped on the accelerator which caused the car to fall backwards. Today's lesson wasnt good too and I dont think im gonna pass my driving test and get my licence. sigh T.T

First lesson

Finally i have started my first driving lesson after passing my undang for more than a year. Hope to get my driving licence by next month so that i could spend 2 years of driving probation in uk without actually driving on the road.

Today my mom and I rushed to the post office to renew my L licence as it expired like dunno how long ago. After that we went to Chyna at KL Hilton for dim sum. I swear to God their dim sum are so damn delicious. Like Sher min would say, it feel like you're having orgasm when you slowly bite on the siew mie, chew it and shallow it.

We managed to get home by 3pm and the driving instuctor came to the house to take me for driving lessons. My first lesson was at Bangsar Sports Complex that area. I didnt understand what the clutch was all about and the engine went dead for like more than 10 times. sigh.
Next lesson will be on this coming thursday. Hope to do a better job on that day.

Nothing Special...

Today was my 3rd day in Malaysia and was so far the most boring day yet. I did virtually nothing today besides counting how many days left I would be in Malaysia before leaving. The calculation came up to 20days left as I would be leaving on 13th july to London. Sigh...

Day I have been waiting for...

Again I have defeated the possibility of getting jet-lag owing to an organise in-flight timetable. Shao nian stayed overnight and we both woke up at 7am which was 1 hour earlier than planned. We went looking for food and decided to swim at around 8am. I have graduated from baby pool but still not good enough to swim at the other end which was about 8 feet deep. We got out from the pool an hour or an hour half later and started waiting for sher min's arrival. As usual that girl arrived 1 hour later than promised at 11am. Her hair was much shorter than it used to be and I thought that she looked better with longer hair. Anyway she didn't even give me a hug eventhough we were apart for 6 months.

Later on we decided to go to Midvalley to eat at Dragon-i and meet Syed after that because he couldn't eat food in Dragon-i as they contained pork. Yummy.... I love the siew long paus there. So delicious. After lunch sher min pretended to line up to get tickets for the movie Get Smart but after 1minute or less she ran away to top-shop to do her shopping and until when the movie started, we still had to wait for her to pass her the movie tickets. very smart of her...

Get Smart was quite alright but the story wasn't that great. Sher min and I sent off Syed and Shao nian before returning home. The best coincidence was I found out that my best friends' names all had an initial ''S''. Like 'S'her min... 'S'hao nian... 'S'yed... and 'S'umugan.

When we returned home Sher min and I were too tired and we dozed off immediately in 2 different beds in the same room. What a shame of me..... I missed out the chance to do what all guys would want to do with a girl. Sigh...

Here are the pics...

these happened in sequence.


shameless pic of sher min but too bad she's a bad poser.

Its here...

Finally the day that i have been waiting for arrived. Here I am... Malaysia. Cant express my words of love towards this land but here I am, waiting for the moments of joy.
Took the MAS boeing 747 back to Malaysia. The 12hour flight felt like it was just a 12minute flight owing to wan-ling's wonderful company. we had fun in the aeroplane and took loads of pictures too. to avoid getting jet-lag, i set myself on Malaysian time and slept accordingly to my bed time hours. i slept in the first 5 hours and had fun talking, eating, watching movies and webcaming in the remaining 7 hours. the plane reached 30mins earlier than predicted time but we still had to wait for a long time till we are able to reclaim our luggage.

My parents didnt come to the airport so I took the express train to KL central and shao nian was already there waiting for me for 4hours. My parents came soon afterwards and the first words my mom uttered out were : OMG you're so skinny bla bla bla...

We went home immediately and had homemade chicken rice for dinner. Shao nian stayed overnight and I was happy to return home.
Pics taken in the plane.

Quite satisfied with these pics. Travelling with friends really make a difference.

Hell is over!

Finally my exams finished. now is the time to play. I stated a new game recently - Fiesta. It is quite fun but i doubt i will be able to play it very often once I return to Malaysia.

My final exam paper was Core maths 4 and I think I did quite well. Hope that will compensate my core maths 3 because i really screwed it up. Finally the exam is over today. After the exam we went to nando's for a nice lunch and after that played bowling and pool. surprisingly bowling was much cheaper than in malaysia. it cost like only £5 for 3 games. very good price. got 1st among my friends for scoring 100 but its still so low. i wanna break my record of 129 points.

Time passed so fast. The 2nd time i looked at my watch it was already 8:30pm. 9 days left till i step on malaysia's ground. just cant wait for it to come.

My day...

Saturday today so was supposed to do my philosophy revision but then i slept till about 3pm so when i woke up didnt have mood to study. then after that was chatting with sher min and we webcamed. thanks to the invention of webcams coz eventhought we were 11000km apart we could still see each other. havent seen her for ages so i started laughing myself off when i saw her for no reasons.

we chatted, we laughed, we exercised and I said hi to her family members. Her hair was shorter than it used to be and she looked good in Arsenal jersey. well, everyone looks good in Arsenal jersey. And i was so unlucky in picking the 1st, 2nd or the 3rd drawers to take a deep look of what she had inside. I had 2 chances but i still missed out the drawer that she kept all her ''treasure''. Sigh.
this' sher min's blurrr look.


i think we chatted for around 2 hours and i just couldnt stop showing offf my long curvy eyelashes that she envies so much. haha. Eventhough in the end we didnt have many topics left to chat about and eventually she went to bed, I could still feel that our friedship is crystal solid. Hope that our plan to meet on 22nd june (1 day after i arrive kl) will succeed and we can go for lunch or dinner or even shop in topshop. haha.

After the chat i played board games with my friends and teacher but because my mood became so good after the chat that i owned them to the max. Was so happy after that. 2nd win in a row.

Counting down.... 34 days ---> malaysia

Fun fun fun...

Played cricket for the first time in my life. it was quite fun though and i think im quite addicted to it now. I have only seen cricket being played in Malaysia once. But i think i will still stick to football coz its just the best sporting game ever invented.

Had history exam this morning and if only i had 5 more minutes i could finish the essays with stronger conclusions which could gain me a few more marks. i doubt that i will score 57/60 for unit 3 but i gave my best shot. so eventhough im worried bout oxford but then i will be happy too if my results disappoint me cause i have tried.

and today is my father's birthday so wish him a happy birthday here. ^_^
i wonder how parents celebrate their birthdays when all their children are studying abroad. well i think its an experience that i would have to face eventually.
