Back from hiatus

I'm back, again! After missing in action from this blog for nearly.. 4 months. LOL. Unbelievable.. my last post was 4 months ago?! Can you believe how time flies? It feels like it's only been weeks.

Alright, admittedly this isn't the first time I did comeback like this. It's like a pattern already. I started being active for like 2 months and then I went on hiatus for the next few months, and this cycle seemed to repeat time and time again. And despite knowing how this cycle works, I still can't seem to get a grip on it. It's unavoidable for me unfortunately, all due to my laziness. =(

But this time around, I'll try to overcome this and try to update consistently. Yes, I'll TRY. Can't assure anything though. XD.

Okie, time to update what I've gone through for the past 4 months.

1. I've got myself an iPod touch. Right, I finally have an apple gadget of my own. Everyone's falling into the iPhone hype nowadays. It's more like a trend already. I can practically see everyone holding one wherever I go, it's nothing new anymore. Not to mention I'm more than happy with my BB already. So... nope, no iPhone for me, thank you and I don't need one. =P iPod touch is the way to go!

BB + iPod touch seem like the perfect combination! :D

2. I've lost my external hard drive. Not literally tho coz I still have it with me but all the files inside were gone. Every single one of them. That and there's some funny sound coming out when I connect it to my laptop. Nothing can be done. =(

Dead and gone. =(

3. Bought myself a new shoes. Yup, I've been wanting to get myself a new pair of shoes after the stolen shoes incident last year. And here we go... A pair of Converse All-Star Classic. Guess what? It only cost me RM 60. Was hanging out in KLCC and found this pair with a 50% discount when we pass by Converse. Crazy stuff!

My new shoes. Finally. =)

4. I've officially joined SAYS.my! SAYS.my is a community of social media users in Malaysia who to love share. The idea is simple, you share out the deals you think worth sharing in whatever social medium you've been using, and a click from whoever it is earns you money. It's kind of a good way for students like us to earn some extra cash. It's easy, especially if you are always on Facebook and Twitter like most of us are nowadays.

Join SAYS.my now! :D

4. Last but not least, I've changed my hairstyle. LOL. After nearly 7 or 8 years of having fringe, I've finally gained enough courage to show my forehead.

BEWARE PEOPLE!

Before =)

After :D

That's all for my comeback! Oh and my finals is drawing near. 3 more weeks and my semester is coming to an end. Let's hope I can do well this time. =)

kthxbai.

2010

So, in just 1 more day and 2010 is officially over!

Question to everyone, how was your 2010? As 2011 draws near, I thought it would be nice to share my stories of 2010. There are ups and downs of course just like everyone else.


Honestly, 2010 has been a really extraordinary year for me. Crazy things happened.. and by crazy, it doesn't neccessarily mean bad things, it can be crazy but good. LOL.

For a start, I've moved from one house to another for like.. 4 times. Meaning I've stayed in 5 different houses in less than 12 months. No kidding and some of my friends are starting to wonder if I'm still living in the stone age because I'm like a freaking nomad.

I've lost a few major things in my life. My laptop which has been around with me for 2 years. But maybe it was a blessing in disguised as I managed to get myself a much better one that allows me to play 'the best football game ever' PES 2010. LOL.

Okay, it doesn't seem to be that much of a loss compared to this... I lost 4 freaking pair of shoes in a night. Can you believe it? People who know me should know I loveeeee shoes. I have some undefined passion for shoes. And guess what? 4 pairs of shoes worth around RM900 just disappeared overnight. Yup, they got stolen by some motherfuckers. A pair of futsal shoes, a pair of basketball shoes and two pairs of casual shoes. Fucking pain you know. =(

Apart from that, I've declined terribly in terms of academic performance. For the first time in my life, I actually failed a semester. Pretty hard to accept but such is life and I hope this first time will also turn out to be my last and final time. No one to blame but myself for being such a lazy ass.

And that's not it, I have been crap at managing my money too. Not that I wasn't crap at it before, but I just basically got even crapper, especially this year. So crap that I've been working part time on most of my weekend and still not able to cover my up financial burden.

I also got mindfucked in one of the most bizarre incidents of my life too. The one where I got cheated by my housemates and all. I remember posting it in my blog before, check out this link (scroll down to no. 5).

The good things of 2010 though, is that I get to witness the best team in the world lifting the biggest prize in football. Spain becoming the champion of World Cup. Will never be able to forget the moment when Iniesta scored the winning goal in the extra time.

World Champion 2010 - SPAIN

I also got myself a BlackBerry Bold 9700. I'm still loving every single second of it. Despite everyone going crazy over the iPhone and whatnot, I've decided to give BB a try and I've never looked back then. I won't say which is the better one but I can only say I have no regrets at all. :D

BB Bold 2

The really good thing of 2010 is that I finally have a baby cousin. A very very cute lil' baby girl.

Lil' Chloe. Cute right? :D

And that reminds me, I'm also hitting 20 in 2010. Yup, I'm 20 years old already and somehow, hitting the big '2' just magically makes me feel like I have some extra responsibility on my shoulder. Nothing that I know of yet, literally. But I can just feel it somehow. Weird.

Before signing off, here's what I really wish to achieve in the coming 2011.

1. Start focusing on my studies and please, stop procrastinating. Work up my CGPA so that my loan will keep on coming, please?

2. Lessen the burden and worries of my family. Reminding myself to go back Muar more often. =)

2. Learn how to manage my money. *IMPORTANT*

3. Get myself a new pair of shoes? Maybe a few more pair, not just one. But that just contradicts with what I've listed in my number 2, no? Isshhh.

4. Less partying. ALSO IMPORTANT. I know you guys will be laughing at this, but I'm gonna control myself, you know? So please remind me constantly if I ever have any thought of partying. =P (i can do it, you know? :D)

That is all! It's been a freaking long time since I've posted anything this long. In fact, this could be my longest post ever! Hope it won't be a long borefest for you guys to read through all this stuff.

And I'm glad I typed all this out, at least as a reminder for myself if I ever lose track of my life. I can click and look back at whatever I've written here. That is the wonder of blogging. Hehe.

Lastly, I guess it's a pretty good end to the year 2010 for all the Malaysian because we've won the AFF Suzuki Cup! Nothing biggie I know.. Just a small competition but a trophy is better than no trophy at all, right? XD

CONGRATULATION TO MALAYSIA!

But that's not the best part. Our PM just announced it's gonna be a public holiday this Friday courtesy of our big victory! LOL. Happy happy Malaysian =)

And hereby, I propose to have a 1 month holiday if we ever qualify for the World Cup. Let's hope this will happen in my lifetime *fingers cross*

kthxbai~

Christmas =)

How was your Christmas everyone? I spent mine at Melacca this year. Counting down at Jonker Walk and basically did what we always do when it comes to countdown event.. we shouted, went extremely high and we started spraying away at everyone else.

No pics though, not prepared to risk those gadget getting sprayed and knocked by the sea of people. But I'm pretty sure there are people who took some pic of me getting totally ambushed with sprays by my friends. =/

The very next day though, we had a BBQ party. Yup, we finally had a proper healthy party. It's been a looooong loooong time since we had any party of those sorts. Barbeque, foods and the best part of all, no alcohol. Only orange juice. How nice! :D

Wee Chew, the chef!

BBQ-ing


Yummy!


Don't really know why I'm looking at him.

And there was this time when I got tired and went inside the house for a while. Everyone started playing with this fire thingy using insect killing spray. I missed out the fun though.

Ah Jiao getting all excited. LOL.

Allen acting cute behind. =/

Victor with his flaming penis. :D

It was fun, just like the old times during our high school years when we literally had BBQ party almost every month. And everytime when we are done with our party, we would jump straight into the pool. Crazy days.

Anyway, New Year Eve is just a few days away. Hope you guys enjoy your last few days of 2010! =)

What Berry are you?

Have you got your own BlackBerry? Well, if you haven't it's not too late to have one now!

As a vivid BB lover and user myself, I'm never too shy to tell everyone about this amazing little smartphone. It's actually more than a phone. To me, it's basically a tool already. With BB in your hand, you don't have to worry about getting left out from your friends and what's happening in Facebook, Twitter and etc.

So here's a way for you to win a limited edition BlackBerry exclusively from DiGi. It's easy and at the same time, you get to have fun too. Just take the quiz and you get to find out what kinda Berry are you?

You'll be awarded with BerryPoints for taking the quiz and here are a few ways you can increase your BerryPoints;
- Taking the quiz again
- Inviting your friends to take the quiz
- Your friend’s Berry turns matches the one you guessed he/she would be.

The more BerryPoints the better, because the 6 top scorers will stand a chance to win Limited Red BlackBerry Torch, white BlackBerry Bold and black BlackBerry Curve smartphones.

What Berry Are You?

Personally, I think I'm an AwesomeBerry of course for obvious reason =P. But too bad the quiz doesn't agree with me and decided that I'm a WTFBerry. LOL.

Try to find our yours now!

TREMBLAY!

One last subject to go before my sem break officially begins! Not that I'm excited or anything, because frankly speaking... it hasn't really been a busy semester, apart from one really tough assignment.

FYI, I'm in a short semester now with only 2 subjects. I think I've said that before in one of my previous updates but I doubt anyone would remember.

So, I've finished my first paper, Bioprocess Engineering. Considering the effort and time I've put in, I would say I'm actually very very satisfied with how it turns out. No kidding, I spent a grand total of 5 hours on this subject, nothing more than that.

The only reason why is because of chan Fei's birthday. Because of him, I sacrificed my studying time. Just imagine how good of a friend I am. :D

Birthday boy.

I know this sounds crazy and people will probably have various thoughts about me when I say this, but I went partying just 2 days before my final exam. And prior to that, I haven't started studying at all. Honestly speaking, I'm feeling so so guilty just by saying this... but you guys probably won't believe it. =P

I guess it's all worth it at the end of the day because I think I actually managed to finish my first paper and not having any worries of failing it at all. At the same time, it's fucking worth it because I get to see how 'chan' he is.

I can confirm you are more 'chan' than me that time. But again, you sure wouldn't believe me. Here's the evidence.

In the process of becoming wasted.

More chan than Ah Jiao. XD

Mission accomplished! :D

Now, the half of the post consists of your wasted pics I think you can do nothing but admit it. There's more actually. =P

Oh yeah, to those who haven't watch Due Date.. PLEASE DO SO! NOW!

God, it's so freaking hilarious I wouldn't mind watching it over and over again. First of all, Robert Downey, Jr. acting in a comedy. Okay, fair enough he's always the cool looking Ironman, Sherlock Holmes or whatnot, but trust me.. he's equally awesome in this movie too.

Not to forget, Zach Galifianakis! Alright, I admit I googled his name because who the hell can spell Galifianakis right. Enough bout the name. BTW, he is the hilarious guy from The Hangover. I knew I'm definitely watching this movie when I saw him in the trailer. How can you not?!

Basically, it's about Robert Downey trying to get back to his wife who's giving birth to a baby girl on the other side of the state. Then, he met Zach and lots of things happened in between the journey. Alright, I'm not gonna spoil it for those who haven't watched it. Go watch it yourself. It's funny as hell. ETHAN TREMBLAY! :D

Munnehhh

I need money. Lots of money.

Seriously, I'm so so poor this month. Getting caught up in everything related to money recently. =/

It's really frustrating because I can do nothing about it. I've been working part time but that is like 1 month to go before I receive my pay.

How I wish everything would be solved the minute I woke up from my sleep. Like all the money suddenly come calling and I won't even have to worry or even have the slightest thought about how I'm gonna go through da rest of the weeks.

But such is life, yeah. I know things don't come to you just like. There's this saying, "We will receive not what we idly wish for but what we justly earn". Basically says you have to work your effort to earn it.

There is just so much desires we have in life that even we ourselves lost track of it at times. It is never fulfillable though. The problem is when you've finally achieved something you wanted, there will be yet another desire coming up in the list.

The worst is when it has acculumated to an extent where you feel it's no longer achievable because there is just so much, you'd rather give up. Guess that's what happening to me right now. I'm not just talking about money, I'm talking about literally everything surrounding my life. Though, I have to admit money is a really big part of it.

Now, I don't even know what da hell I've just written. Heck, I've never written things this emo. Or what da hell, I've never been emo, ever. At least, that's what I thought all these while. I still stand by that because I don't think this is an emo post anyway.

Though, I'm can sense myself as a potential emo freak soon if I keep on writing.

Gotta stop here before I really turn mental.

New layout

Now, this is totally random. I don't know what happened to me lately but it just felt like I have so much spare time and I don't even know what to do with it. So bored I could literally sleep whole day and then wake up, and sleep again. The cycle goes on and on until I'm extremely hungry and decided to eat something.

Or sometimes, I just rewatch all the classic episodes of HIMYM and BBT. That's how bored I am. I could've sworn I watched 'The Playbook", "The Naked Man" and a few other episodes for more than 15 times and guess what? I'm still not sick of it, yet. True story ;)

All this boredom are probably because I only took two subjects this semester. One of them, which I've totally gave up on the lecturer and decided not to attend anymore. So, that leaves me with only one subject.

Anyway.. notice any changes to my blog? =P

I realized I've never changed my layout, ever. I think I'm just lazy (not surprising, eh?). But now, I have so much time to kill and out of nowhere, I just thought maybe I should make a little tweak coz it's getting really boring (not again!).

I don't know but I'm always a fan of simple layout. So, this one does look pretty simple and straightforward, and safe to say I'm pretty satisfied with it.

If you actually observe carefully, I took off the header. The pic where I was posing in front of a beach. LOL. In fact, you don't even have to observe at all, it's freaking blatant ffs!

In case, if you still don't know which header I was talking about, here it is!

Titanic-like-pose, but only myself. :D

That's all. Freakin' random post but whatever.
