Happiness Undefined - Blessings in Disguise

It's been more than one month since I last blogged, therefore, most of the time(actually all the time) when I left since a large time interval in between I would normally blog about happenings in my life. 2010 has been great - not only I start to blog (again) but I have more determination this time. The best thing is KampungBoy artist did blog-walk this blog... Thanks Lat! Well, 2011 kicks off for me ratherly weird with me having a weird new year resolution - Juggling 3 balls while speaking Cantonese(Don't ask me why, I also don't know).But what's weirder is my new semester at UMP (Universiti Malaysia Pahang). I'm in the same section but more than half of the class full of strangers... *sigh* here it goes again.What's worse is that none of them are Malay, this makes me very frustrated. It shows that there has been Buzz Marketing on my section for the last sem. And this doesn't approve with the 1Malaysia spirit at all. I miss my whole classmates. I wish to everything would remain status quo.

However, what I'm happy about is definitely my results. I finally get good grades again after 9 long years. Although as always my parents couldn't be satisfied but I felt good. It's been a while since my friends praise me for being smart. The last time I took SPM (it's like O-level), I got 9A's and my 'friends' somehow don't want to pick up my phone. But this time, although I made it to the Dean's List but I still have friends around me that I think I can rely on. This feelings can't be described well because not many been through like me before. If you have then "Welcome to the club!"

Why I choose to post a blog today?? I have fall sick for nearly 4 days now, the weird thing is my runny nose didn't got better or worse. It just remains the same for the past few days despite I nearly fainted in Engineering Mechanics tutorial today but that was just pure deep hunger. My animal instinct is just waiting to prowl out. The rest is still fine I just need a longer afternoon nap and some sleepy medicine. Speaking of afternoon nap, I miss my evening outdoor activities with friends today all thanks to my flu. However there's an accident happened in today's activity. I was suppose to go cycling but my Jia Han(my good friend) did not call me despite I was taking my nap. It wasn't the road that the accident happen, it happened off-road. I think what my friend trying to do is that to train for the Co-curiculum 2 they have take which is Mountain Bike (I'm in Paintball). After a safety briefing tonight, while I was at the ground floor of the hostel I met up with the victim. His bruises were terrible, as far as I saw it in the dark it was quite serious, even the bruise got onto his face. I was walking upstairs going back to my room while thinking to myself -

"I always asked God to blessed me with good health. Now I'm down with flu and I'm still thankful. If it wasn't for that nap I took, the one with the bruises could be me bacause I'm not really good at cycling off road. Thank God for the blessings in disguise."

P.S: As for my friend who fell off, if you're reading this, Get Well Soon! If there's anything I can do for you, feel free to ask me.

Aluba

Image
For some of you not living in Asia, you might not know this but Aluba is a famous 'offering' one MAN has to 'deal' with. This normally occurs to male high school students in Asia and not recommend to perform on a female. Origins of the name came from Japan, other parts of Asia called it differently like Aruba in Taiwan and Happy Corner in Hong Kong. I'm surprised that they even has a wiki page for this (if you can read mandarin) Here comes the definition: Aluba is a student prank where you need to gather at least 4 person on pounce on a particular victim. Grab hold of his arms and legs. Spread his legs wide and ramp his groin against something thin, hard, rod-like and able to take a beating of the groin like a lamp post, a supporting cylinder wall or even the edge of a door. Repeat the 'ramping' process until all of you (except the victim) are satisfied. Sometimes the offering does not ends here, you may offer the victim to your "Holy" ro

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

Welcome to the Cashless Society (Malaysia Edition)

Image
The place was crowded. You were standing quietly, hands tugged into your straight cut jeans eyes locked on the wide boards over the top of the shelf. There are 2 persons standing in front of you - both larger than you. The first man at the front has been staring at that same wide board for some time now before he started speaking. Your hands began to sweat as you never done this before. You convinced yourself that you are not some hipsters that just got to have overpriced coffee and the only thing stands between you and that green maiden logo was the aroma of the coffee that draw you into the queue. Soon, it is your turn to order, you successfully blurt out a bunch of gibberish words that hipster made cool before giving your name to the cashier in front of you (which most of the time they are going to misspelled it). As you wait for the cashier to key in the last few details of your order, you noticed a small shelf in the place of cardholders at the front left of the cashier's tab
