Fun at its Peak!

Image
My first semester finally over, what to do?? Celebrate of course... but when pocket runs empty and you don't have passport with you what do you do?? Go to the most affordable theme park in Malaysia - Genting Highlands. Recently they convert the name to Resort World - Genting. Yes, it's under the same management as Resort World - Sentosa. Well, if you're a Malaysian, 99% you have been there before and 60% I'm sure you been there more than once. If you're not gambling up there, it's actually cost quite cheap. From Penang to Genting the cost of a bus is roughly RM 70 return tickets and the theme parks entry fee is around RM51 off peak season. Though food there is quite expensive however I may suggest go for the steamboat or the international buffet which cost around RM50 and guarantee stomach satisfactory. What I want to say in this post is definitely not to tell you about my experience there. You either had experience it yourself or you have heard it from others.

Ultimate Hokkien

Ever realise how hokkien dialect sounds like English sometimes? Well, here's some famous English movies (Ang Mo He) scenes that has been translated to Hokkien. This is to show how wonderful Hokkien vocabulary are. I'm proud to be a Hokkien.

For those in UMP, I think you have watch it before)

Waking Up Since September Ends...

The title for this post was suppose to be "Why I starved last raya" but then again there are more things happening in the world than just me waiting for my dinner for more than 2 hours. There's this Eiffel Tower bomb threat, Samy Vellu announcing he's retiring after sitting in the highest chair in MIC for more than 30 YEARS! (Boy, that seat must be burning hot.). US priest - burn a Quran day (I don't want to mention anything more about this). iPhone 4 finally arrives in Malaysia. Me sleeping for 16 hours in a day at my lovely and chilling house. For those who do not know, his name is Samy. Samy Bulu Vellu You see, I practically relaxed while the whole world is...well.......*lost for words*. Erm... anyway October is at present so I hope I would stop dreaming and work twice as hard as there's many event coming up in October. The UMP Lantern Festival which I gonna help (Yes, for those of you calling me a banana and not helping in this event - shame on you. You a

What's the Real World like?

I want to be rich and I want lots of money, I don't care about clever I don't care about funny. She wants lots of clothes and loads of diamonds, I heard people die while they're trying to find them. Girls take their clothes off and it will be shameless, 'Cause everyone knows that's how you get famous. Life's about film stars and less about mothers, It's all about fast cars and crossing each other. But it doesn't matter cause I'm pack in plastic, And that's what make my life so f**king fantastic! I am a weapon of massive consumption, It's not my fault it's how I'm programmed to function. I don't know what's right and what's real anymore, And I don't think how I'm meant to feel anymore. When do you think it will all become clear? Because I'm being taken over by the fear...

The Soaking Wet Experience

Ever since two Thursdays ago, my body grown weaker and I'm not sure why. I knew it is only a matter of time before I would fall sick. And true enough, Thursday right after the Organic Chemistry test I got caught cold. It's not my fault that I wanted to catch it but 'hot' is running too fast to catch so I catch it's enemy - The Cold!!! (I'm being ridiculous here). Anyway, this cold of mine has a network of friends as well just like in Facebook. One by one, my sickness come and the stupidiest thing is I burned my own hand with a cup of tea. I try to taste the tea from whats left in the cup - it's salty! However, this is not the topic I want to focus on here. What I want to tell you is what happened during the peak of my sickness. It was raining heavily and I just finished dinner and prepare to get to class last Monday(It was 4 days ago - the same date as my last post which explains my emo-ness). It's not about the rain that I'm worried about, it's

Sorry guys...

As you know, my posts recently doesn't feature much nice picture like it used to be - thousand apologies. In order to redeem the good name of my blog, here's a video for you viewers to enjoy. Hope it entertain you!

Why you shouldn't really da bao/bungkus/wrap up what you gonna eat...

Who says Facebook is useless? I got this article from facebook and thinking back that everytime I ask my roomates to go canteen eat together but refused should really read this. Those, especially students in UMP love to use those polystyrene box to eat their lunch in the hostel room are pretty lame. I mean come on there's something called the cafeteria and the chairs and tables there must serve their purpose and not for display only. Furthurmore, you would only atrract all those ants, cockroaches and other insects to your hostel room. Anyway, here is an article from the Star which I think it's useful to all those who likes to da bao/bungkus their food in the polystyrene box. Is hormonal imbalance creating more male teenagers with breasts, while female teenagers are getting more hairy? Cosmetic and aesthetic physician Dr Alice Prethima said she is seeing many cases of gynecomastia (enlargement of breasts in males) in her clinic. But, she is also seeing teenage girls coming in b

So High vs. Sohai

Yes! First test 1 paper is over and inspirations starts flowing in again. After having read one of my good friends blog post. I realised that Malaysia and Singapore have many differences as well. In Singapore, you're not given a chance to speak your own preferred language like Hokkien. However, in Malaysia, it is not that I have no one to speak Hokkien dialect to but the thing is when you go Kuantan, most of the Chinese there speaks Cantonese and this became very difficult for me and my friend to order our food. We sounded weird...well... mostly not me (Thank you TVB drama) with our Hokkien mix English mix Cantonese words that came out from my mouth. From there, I have decided to put my best effort to learn how to speak fluent Cantonese in my 4 years in UMP. So, why the title gotta do with this. Well, first of all, my new friend here always annoy me with these words "I'm so high"... Ya, "geli" and annoying but then again it really make me reflect upon what i

Reply to Apple Secret Device

What I show you about Apple i is just an illusion or should I say a distraction to divert your attention. What they really are creating is the NEXT big thing... The iPhone 5... Watch this next video and you'll see how revolutionary is Apple again.... Enjoy!

I'm back!

Phew, finally some time to create a post... To the new readers, welcome! After more than a month of not updating this blog, i thought the number of visitors will decrease but instead it went up somehow... Guess my new found friends are reading my blog. Anyway, after 1 month in Pahang, I finally able to settle things down plus include a few extra daily chores in my life. Life here comparatively with other uni life is peaceful. There were no strange animals running in and out of my room. Btw, have I told you I got the BEST room ever in the hostel where all the furniture are complete including the mosquito net... Yeah... Then there were the lecturers... I mean it's very hard to find good lecturers. I think I can say that 1 out of 5 subjects I've taken the lecturers are better than my form 6 teachers. But then, in uni it's different from what we've been studying before this. In school, the teachers gave the education to us (aka spoon-feeding) but in uni, you yourself must

P.S. I love you...... Penang!

Hi guys, I know I've stop working and you'll be expecting lots of posts from me but sadly NO... well... not that I don't type, it's the streamyx problem. I don't know why but every night at 10, my streamyx will disconnect itself and unsave my post. Before I am able to put up my strength to type again some postman threw me this.... Ooo... You might think its from IPTA but nope... It's from UTP, so that means to say that IPTA are not so much of a extremist. They say losers can't be chosers but the best part (and most probably the happiest) I get to choose and felt that I'm wanted. Okay so I got 2 universities offer but I don't know which to choose - UMP or UTP - One is E&E eng. and another one is what I wanted Chemical engineering. However one is nearer to Penang (I LOVE Penang!) and another one is at East Coast of Peninsula... Therefore, I decided to flip a coin and the coin shows head(the side with the kite on it) Kite(Wau)= east coast, so I= eas

Of Gays and Lesbians

Working for more than a month recently has been an eye opening experience for me. Not only I learn signs of a back stabber but somewhat a different group of people. Well, to put it to words - People that are not 'straight' or people who are sexually attracted to the same sex. Well, for some cases I can understand that they have past relationship problems etc. But what I don't understand is that why some guys attracted to guys as well where you actually don't see hormones acting as a cause. example, they're muscular, they have hair all over their hands(I'm not sure about chest). Then, as I search through the web for some examples, I found a blogger post which is quite interesting. She types about Christians being able to convert gay(including lesbians) back to the right sexual preference type of people. Anyway, I decided to copy them up and paste it here cause practically this girls explains and tells how I felt already. So this post is not original by me but th

Hey guys, sorry for not updating for a while and this post I'm gonna update you on my life again. It's like becoming a trend now that everytime this blog has not been updated for a while, the next post will be on my life. It's not that I ran out of ideas to write (Nonsense my imagination is beyond Spongebob), its just that I've been really busy preparing myself for EduCamp(7 - 8 June, Mon-Tue) at Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS (Near Ipoh, Perak) as I've been shortlisted. Not that I wanna show off, its just that this type of shortlisted thing never occur in my life before - Yup, this is my first time and boy was it hectic. Okay, to start off the problem faced is the journey itself. Last Thursday me and my parents have already been there to check out the venue and it was okay the building was nice and it only took approximately 3 hours drive from Penang. However, we plan to go there on Sunday night and overnight there at Ipoh. However, things doesn't turn out to be
