Is it going to snow?

2011-12-26T14:33:00.002+08:00

Hi y'all!!

I was just thinking, is it going to snow when I go to London next week? I hope it does, cause that's one of the reasons why I wanted to go to London next week, for the SNOW.

Some people might ask me: "Audrey, why are you so obsessed with snow?" Well, let me give you an answer to that: "It's because in Malaysia, we never get to see real SNOW. We like on like the freaking equator when it's summer all year round. The only seasons we have are summer and rainy season (if that's even considered as one...). So you can't blame someone for wanting to see snow at least once in their life, okay?"

Okay, maybe that was a little over exaggerating, but the point is up until now, in my 18 years of living, I haven't even seen snow in a country, like a lot of snow. If you're talking about snow up in the mountains in China, then yes, been there, experienced that. But seeing and feeling snow in a whole country is totally different.

Hopefully it'll snow in London when I get there. *Crossing fingers*

XOXO,

Everything has a first

2011-12-25T16:33:00.000+08:00

Everyone has definitely got to experience some firsts during the course of their life, whether they're forced to or they want to.

Recently, I myself have experienced many so-called 'firsts' this year. And since 2012 is coming, I decided to think back and recount all my first experiences 2011 made me experience...

First time attended college since finishing secondary school
First time decided to join rock-climbing at Camp 5
First time finally decided to go London, UK with a friend in early 2012 (planning was still done in 2011)
First time sat for Cambridge A-levels AS exams
First time went to Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai, Thailand
First time rode an elephant with my family (although I rode the elephant with my brother)
First time watched Captain America on an airplane (some more cannot finish...)
First time family decided to drive to the airport instead of taking the taxi
First time experience when father's car battery died in the airport the day when we were supposed to drive back home after coming back form hols
First time saw a jump start of a car (Can yo believe it?)
First time having me room massively renovated after 18 years of living in it
First time going to Ipoh to visit grandma on Christmas Day
Etc...

As you can see, 2011 made me experience many firsts, but it also made me a better human being. Thanks so much 2011, for all the firsts, all the experiences and all the memories you have given me. Hopefully 2012 will be a much better year for me, and for everyone else!

XOXO,

Audrey Leow

The Road Less Travelled With Unoi & Dung

2011-12-23T22:05:00.001+08:00

When I came back from Chiang Mai just last week, the first thing I wanted to blog about is Maesa Elephant Camp. Riding an elephant was a real first for me, and I really enjoyed it!

If you all want to know, my elephant's name was Unoi. Such a cute name right?! I absolutely loved it. <3

Riding an elephant was very different from riding a normal vehicle. Considering it was the first ANIMAL I rode, that was such an interesting and fun experience!! Absolutely loved it! I also realised how small I was compared to Unoi. The ratio was like so huge I can even do the Math. But he (Unoi) was just so kind and gentle that I loved to pet him.

Btw, my parents also rode an elephant of their own. Their elephant's name is Mae Khum Mee. She (Mae) was also very gentle, probably because they were already tamed and trained to do this. But I think this kind of elephant camps are good around the world as they provide elephants with a good place to stay and safety instead of being hunted around by hunters for their ivory. THOSE PEOPLE SHOULD BE PROSECUTED, ANIMAL CRUELTY PEOPLE!

Conclusion: ELEPHANT RIDE WAS AWESOME! HOPE TO RIDE SOME MORE ANIMALS! :) I LOVE UNOI, YOU'RE MY MAN (for now...) <3

XOXO,
Audrey Leow

London trip

2011-11-25T17:00:00.001+08:00

Hi all! Sorry for the late update. Exams are just over for me and now I actually have the time to do the things I wanted to do. Some of the things are like trying out rock-climbing, hitting the gym, planning my trip to Japan and London...

Speaking of London, tonight I'm going for dinner with my mum, bro and Yi's family. I don't really know how the dinner will come out, but I think I'm just going to be myself and try to enjoy the dinner to its fullest. My mum and bro are currently in the gym, so it's me home alone at home. So I thought I'd write here to vent some of my feelings.

I know that our (Yi and I) parents are actually very worried about us going to London alone. Even though this was supposed to be a trip for us, I think today only I realised that Great Britain is actually a very foreign place, especially for this country-bumpkin who hasn't step foot in the continent before. We only read about it in books and on the Internet, but until we have been there and seen it for ourselves, I don't think we'll ever realise how dangerous this trip is. However, I believe that reading some books and researching on the Internet will help us out with better understanding the place when we get there. Of course there will be some "ooh..." and "ahh...", but at least we're more prepared.

Apparently some guy will be following us on the first couple of days. Aunty Kim said his name was Wai Hong from SMKDJ, but somehow it doesn't ring a bell. Maybe it'll only ring a bell when we (I) meet him there. This is to ensure that we don't get lost and to protect us.

At the end, I believe that after this trip, I will become a stronger, more street-wise and a better planner in life. I'm just so excited for this trip! :)

XOXO,
Audrey Leow

P/S: I also really want to play with snow and get away from the rainy season! :P

UK Education Services

2011-11-15T12:24:00.001+08:00

Haiz, I'm so confused right now.

Just now. E West Education Services contacted me. They asked me if I'm still interested in applying to the UK. They even scheduled a meeting after my AS exams. However, after that conversation was over, I thought about it again, and thought: Oh god! What happens if everything goes wrong? Is this a gamble I'm willing to take?

I mean, Taylor's College itself already helps me with my UCAS application, and I'm almost done with mine except for the personal statement. Do I really want to take the risk and start over with an education service?

So right now I'm in a dilemma, whether to follow my original path of following the college, or change and follow education services. Maybe I should discuss with my parents first, but they might be better off not knowing this. Maybe I should just reject the offer given by E West and follow my path.

Ya, maybe I should do just that. I mean, I'm already almost done with my own UCAS application, so why take the risk? What happens if something goes wrong? Yup, I'll just tell them that we do not need your services, and then only I'll have to worry - about my personal statement.

Talking about personal statements, I haven't even started writing mine yet, and the deadline is next Thursday (24/11). What should I do? Maybe I should start drafting it ASAP. OMG, Audrey! All of a sudden you have so many things to do in 2 weeks! Maybe you should have planned your time better...

Anyway, now that writing this post has helped me make up my mind. It's back to studying and thinking about my personal statement. See ya!

XOXO,
Audrey Leow

Studying

2011-11-10T15:11:00.001+08:00

According to this quote I just picked from the Internet... never mind, I'm just too lazy to find one now.

Anyway, back to the matter of studying. Next 2 weeks will be the last weeks for my AS exams. However, right now I seem to be studying only half-heartedly. Is this bad, or good in a way? Hmmm, never know.

Today I was supposed to study half Chemistry Paper 2 and half Physics Paper 2, but I think I'll only be studying Chem today. Then I'll only study Physics tomorrow. What am I doing, you ask? Well, my mind is always distracted doing other things such as reading manga, watching anime, playing Sims Social, HAVING to help my mum do the house chores... Haiz, maybe it's all my fault that I'm studying half-heartedly.

Never mind, these few days will be the final push for me!! Gambateh, Audrey!! :)

XOXO,
Audrey Leow

London

2011-11-04T15:32:00.000+08:00

Hi guys! Guess what? I'm going to London!! :)

Yup! It's confirmed already, I have even paid the air tickets. This is just so exciting. I'm going with my good friend, Yean Yi. Actually this idea was kind of unexpected, as in I never expect her to agree and follow me to this cool trip. Even if she agreed, I never expect for our parents to approve of us going there by ourselves!! SO for all of this to be happening, this is just so exciting!

Anyway, after my AS exams, she's going to come and sleepover at my place. Now that itself is another thing to be excited over, as we never sleepover and each other's houses before, so this will be a first for us.

So far, air ticket = settled. Accommodation = settled. Now all that's left is the budget, transport and attractions. Can't wait to plan for the trip right after my exams. Bye!

XOXO,
Audrey Leow

Yean Yi

2011-10-28T12:22:00.001+08:00

Dear Yean Yi,

~MY GOOD FRIEND~

You were and are still one of my good friends. I love you for who you are, although I'm not sure whether you have changed over the past year or not... I don't mind. :)

I remember when we were still just ordinary secondary school prefects. Although we weren't in the popular gang, we still managed to get our job done and have many friends. This showed that we remain who we are throughout the school years. Awesome!!

And then comes those times when we all went out and hung out at Yi May's house. As I remember, we even had a sleepover there once. Those were good times. Too bad Yi May is now in Australia, and you and I are in different campuses. But I believe our good friend relationship won't be affected just because we do not see each other that often anymore...

Do you remember that sometime last year you said that you wanted to give me a bikini for my 18th birthday? Well, I'm already 18, and I'm still wondering whether you will remember and give me that bikini you said you will. I'm waiting.

Anyway, I'm both nervous and excited that we are going to meet tomorrow. On one hand, I'm excited that we finally get to hang out; however, on the other hand, I'm nervous as to what to do and what to say when I'm around you. I don't want it to turn out to be a very boring and awkward conversation.

Wait till I meet you tomorrow first... Remember to come ah? :P

XOXO,
Audrey Leow

Outing with Allimalar & Leannza

2011-10-22T17:54:00.002+08:00

Hi. Went out with my friends, Allimalar and Leannza today. We had such a GOOD time. Thanks guys!!

The Three Musketeers

2011-10-20T23:39:00.000+08:00

Hi. Watched The Three Musketeers today with Intan. The show was not bad, I think I would rate it 8/10.

I found it weird that the movie was called 'The Three Musketeers', but at the end there were 4 musketeers instead. Doesn't matter, 'cause they are all hot and strong (buff)...

Good luck to all Cambridge A Levels students who are taking their exams, including me! :)

XOXO,
Audrey Leow

Happy birthday!! :)

2011-10-20T10:05:00.000+08:00

Happy birthday, Audrey!!

Happy birthday, Caren!!

It's just so cool that we both have our birthdays on the same day. Hopefully you'll have a great day the same way I'm gonna have a great day.

Dear family,

Remember that we are going to celebrate it tonight through dinner at 1 Utama. Don't forget ya!!

To everyone who remembered and wished me,

Thank you very much! I'm just glad that you all remembered my birthday and hope that we all can still remain friends in the future (whether through facebook or twitter or through handphone and through mail).

XOXO.
Audrey Leow

Apple

2011-10-19T16:39:00.001+08:00

Finally updated my ipod touch to the new iOS 5 and updated my iTunes at the same time to the new iTunes 10.5.

Quite cool actually, especially all the new features. Still in the exploring stage though, so excited exploring it...

However, this is the only Apple product I have, not so rich to afford iPad, iPhone 4S and so forth. Haiz, just be grateful with all my blessings enough already.

Thanks Steve Jobs for introducing Apple to our lives. R.I.P.

XOXO,

Audrey Leow

Real Steel

2011-10-18T20:52:00.000+08:00

This movie, you guys, is definitely a movie worth watching!

The robots and actors acting are good. The storyline is good and best of all, the music is good.

THIS MOVIE IS DEFINITELY ONE WORTH WATCHING!! WATCH IT GUYS!! :)

XOXO,

Audrey Leow

Friends...

2011-10-18T19:26:00.000+08:00

A friend is one who knows you and loves you just the same.

~ Elbert Hubbard~

Hi. Hmmmm... I just realised that I have started a lot of my blog posts with 'Hi!". Sorry, will try to change that next time I write/type.

Anyway, I have just reconnected with my secondary school friends. We are actually going to meet up and catch up on life.

To Ke Li,

Too bad I didn't get to catch up with you. I hope we do get to meet up and catch up with each other lives. I can't wait to meet you. :)

To Leannza, Allimalar (Huey May) and Yean Yi,

I just can't wait for the reunion with you guys! Although it's on 2 separate days, I'm still glad we get to meet with each other. Really can't wait. Must be pretty... Must be pretty... LOL. :P

At the end, the other important thing other than family, I think, is friends. Since I didn't really had that many friends in primary school, I actually made an effort to learn to socialise and made some awesome friends during my secondary school days which I still treasure now even when we are not studying together anymore. I really miss you guys and can't wait to see you all and hug you all!

Love y'all!

XOXO,

Audrey Leow

Hi y'all!

My exams are starting tomorrow. Can't wait to get it over with and go along with the holidays!

I just read reviews or rather hands-on about my current favourite handphone - HTC Sensation XE. It's not bad, of course better than the normal HTC Sensation.

Apparently it appeared in Malaysia early, or at least it appeared in 1 Utama early. I just read that it was supposed to be released at Malaysia this week, but I already saw it at Gadget Republic last Saturday. Man, does 1 Utama rock!!

Hope that I'll get the handphone *fingers crossed*...

Well, better continue studying for my exams. See you guys soon!

2011-08-30T23:19:00.000+08:00

Hi everyone!! Long time no see. Sorry for the late update on my life, was busy with so much stuff! OMG, can you all believe it? So fast and it's already September. Trials for PMR and SPM is ongoing, Hari Raya holidays have started and here I am - blogging once again... Life...

Anyway, I want to write today to vent out some feelings that were inside me.

Here it goes...

I actually just came back form Cambodia recently, so I managed to experience life there for like a few days. Even though I went to Siem Reap only, the scene there was so saddening. To see all the people there so poor and sometimes starved and have no place to live makes me want to go tehre and help. Too bad I can't... Anyway, I was also impressed at their determination to succeed and their dreams. Many of them actually are learning other languages besides their cambodian language - like English, Chinese, Japanese, Korean... They believe that by learning these languages, they can have a better life and earn a better living. The people there are also still friendly despite of their poverty. Way to go, Cambodians!! :)

Next, I went to my aunt's house. Not that it was boring, but it was mostly about my brother playing DOTA with my cousins, and me sitting aside and watching TV or doing something else. How boring can it be?

And mum, boys don't normally study, even when you tell them to. More so when the holidays come after their trials. So don't keep pressuring dear brother of mine to study, maybe asking him to flip through a little bit is okay, but not sit there and study unless he wants to do so. Boys will always be boys. I mean, sometimes you will encounter boys who are very studious, and I mean ALL THE TIME. We teenagers have a term for these kids - NERDS. You know my brother...

And BRIAN, you do know that your PMR is coming soon right? Don't you think with 1 month to spare, it's time to study and strengthen your weaknesses? I'm not asking you to become a NERD and sit there 24/7, but for your own good, please just sit there sometimes and flip through those reference books, or even do some of the exercises. Believe me, they will help you in the future. I'm also not asking you to give up on fun, after all 'All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy'. I believe you understand this idiom, if not, FLIP THE DICTIONARY!!

Phew, that's all for now. Thanks for listening! :)

XOXO,

Audrey Leow

Going To Ipoh

2011-06-16T08:34:00.000+08:00

Hi y'all! Good to see you again!

Anyway, I'm going to Ipoh this Saturday by myself! Isn't that exciting? Can't wait for that day. I'm staying there for a week I think, then only I'm coming back with them.

I'm taking the train there from KL Sentral to Ipoh via ETS. Hopefully the train service is good...

Bye! :)

XOXO,
Audrey Leow

Buddhism Zen trip

2011-06-16T08:26:00.000+08:00

Hi y'all! Audrey here again! Sorry for the late update on my blog. Too busy enjoying the holidays. 2 weeks worth of holidays. Yay!

Anyway, today our class group is doing our Moral Studies video assignment. We're planning to go to Budddhist Maha Vihara, and ask the monk (reverand) some questions. Hopefully my questions are polite enough and good enough for the monk to answer them. And also hopefully we don't cause an awkward situation to occur.... *prays*

Since my dad has his medical check-up, he dropped me here at 8am, when my trip only starts at like 9.30am! Never mind, since I also have some stuff to do at campus before the trip. Good luck dad! If the doctor pronounces that you are fit. then you can join Jog For Hope's 10km Open category run. Uncle Wong TH is waiting for you! :P

For those of you who don't know what Jog For Hope is, it's a charity run organised by my college, Taylor's College Sri Hartamas. I'm a recruiter for it so please join this charity run as it will help benefit so many people. For more details, please go to this website http://www.jogforhope.wordpress.com/

Thanks y'all! Hope to hear from you soon!

XOXO,
Audrey Leow

LAN studies finally over!

2011-05-05T16:16:00.000+08:00

Hi y'all! Sorry for the continuous non-update. I have been busy and lazy these few months. Anyway, I'm back. And let's talk about my life recently.

Biggest news for us today : LAN STUDIES IS FINALLY OVER!! I know, that LAN studies is boring and Mr William does try to make the class interesting, but Sejarah will always be Sejarah. Then today he announces that today is his last LAN class with us. (sob, sob...)

Hopefully I'll pass his final exam so that I don't have to see him for LAN again the next semester!!

Bye, Mr William!!

XOXO,

Audrey Leow

Starting-to-be hectic college life...

2011-02-27T11:02:00.000+08:00

Hi. Sorry for not updating after so long... (Was it even that long?)

Anyway, my college life is starting to become hectic (refer to title of post above).

Just to let you guys know, after an interview, I was chosen to become the secretary for my college's psychology club. Honestly, I thought I wouldn't get the post. I thought my interview sucked and that I was too shy to answer any of their questions. Guess I was proven wrong...

So, because of this secretary post, I have to attend an ECA meeting this Tuesday, after my general club meeting on Monday, and then I have to go for a camp from this Friday to next Sunday in Negeri Sembilan!! How cool is that??? But I have to settle my homework first though...

But, my rock-climbing club general meeting is on the same day and time as my psychology club meeting!! Honestly, I'd rather go for the psych club meeting then the other, but my friends are going for the other, and I can't attend the other because I'm the sec of psych club. Better for me then... :)

Hopefully my friends can get posts at other clubs too so that we can all go camp this Friday together!! Dini, Sofee, Intan... (Psyching...Psyching) LOL.

Hmmm... Let's talk about some random stuff for today:

My brother went to attend a Skor A seminar for his upcoming PMR exam. You know what that means: "HE'S NOT GOING BADMINTON TODAY!!"
My mum went for her Qi Gong CNY lunch! Concentrate on the term 'CNY'! Isn't CNY already over??? Tell me about it!
So my dad and I are left behind at home. My dad's going to be lonely though, because I've got to go play badminton soon. We're going for lunch together! How awesome is that?

That's all for today. Report to y'all later k?

XOXO,

Audrey Leow

Random

2011-02-13T12:05:00.000+08:00

Hi. Back to college already. Homework and hard tutorials to do, interesting and fun friends, nice and yet strict lecturers, what's not to love about college? :P

Just some things I think you want to know:

Brian (my bro) got a fever so he can't go badminton today. I'm going instead. How fun is that? Badminton without Brian going: "Audrey, you suck lah! Play properly la!" Awww, I'm looking forward to it already...
I heard that my parents are going to visit Grandma Hor later in the afternoon. Be sure to collect angpao for me yeah? :P
Yesterday I went to Matthew's house for BBQ dinner. To me, it was a typical church meeting. But it was fun. All his church friends were there, and we had a blast playing the treasure hunt game.
Tomorrow is our class (PS1) book sale day. Informally. :P I'm bringing books, Darsh's bringing books, Sofee & Dini's buying books. So, where do we get to? Money and books!! Oh yeah, better remember to bring the books tomorrow. Or else I won't earn any $$. Haiz, so money-minded these days...

So, these are the few random things happening in my life right now. Enjoy the hectic! :P

XOXO,

Audrey Leow

P/s: Matthew actually knows Kai Feng! They were actually in the same class. Oh, now I can't wait to tell him that tomorrow!

Yi May has gone off to Australia

2011-02-10T22:21:00.000+08:00

Hi. It's still CNY, and Yi May has already boarded the MAS plane to Australia. I'm quite sad that we didn't get to send her off, but what to do? The timing just wasn't right.

Yi May, have a safe trip and please remember us as we will definitely remember you. When you come back to Malaysia, remember to catch up with us!!

XOXO,

Audrey Leow

Sending Yi May off this Thurs?

2011-02-08T19:49:00.000+08:00

After the awesome party on Sunday, it's time to send Yi May off this Thurs to Aussieland! Oh, how we'll miss her, when she's not here going on outings with us, when she's not hanging out with us... Yi May, I'm starting to MISS you already! How silly of me! :)

Anyway, the sending off part is a little bit tricky. See, I made it an event on fb, but the number of people attending keeps fluctuating by the minute. I asked my transporter to fetch us there, but I haven't called him yet. Hmmm, maybe I should call him later at 9...

My parents told me that if there were too few people going, they will not let me go and send Yi May off! How cruel, but they do have a point. Take for example if there were only 2 of us going, then if my transporter charges RM100 for round trip, each of us will have to pay RM50! It's just not practical! But what those people don't realise is that it's already TUESDAY and we are sending Yi May off on THURSDAY! Time is running out here, and they still seem to dilly-dally...

So far, those who really confirmed that they are going are:

1. Me (of course)

2. Yew Ke Li (she seems to go for everything)

3. Allimalar (she's also like Ke Li)

4. I-Faith (She sms-ed me herself but she hasn't changed her fb status to 'attending' yet)

And those who not sure going or not:

1. Jonathan Tan

2. Yean Yi

A lot more not really sure... Please respond ASAP!

CNY party @ Yi May's

2011-02-07T11:22:00.000+08:00

Hi. Yesterday we all went to Yi May's house for a CNY/Farewell party. It was definitely a good party! It was a blast! XD

All my DJ friends were there, so I didn't feel lonely. Best of all, I managed to catch up with Yean Yi! I thought she'll still be mad at me for not going to prom, but at the end, we reconciled and had a great time taking pics.

The BBQ was ok, although a lot of the meat had to be recooked over and over again because of its rawness... Luckily I didn't perch or get a sore throat after the party. God bless!

To Yi May, thanks for inviting us to the party. Hope you remember us and have a great time at Aussieland!!

To all my other friends, thanks for accompanying me and being my friend! Hope we'll catch up some time! Love you all!

XOXO,

Audrey

Outing with cousins

2011-02-05T20:51:00.000+08:00

Hi. Sorry for not updating. Was busy collecting angpao! :P

Anyway, today my brother and I went out with our cousins to 1 Utama. We went to have lunch at Sushi Zanmai, then the girls went to shop while the boys went to play at the arcade and then played bowling. After that, we went to Tutti Frutti to have yoghurt together. At the end, it was a fun experience.

Now we are at my house. We just had dinner which my mother cooked and we all helped to clean up after that. My cousins are going back soon, I think... I also had a chat with my cousin brother who is of the same age as me. He wanted to take STPM, but has 2nd doubts about it. I gave him some advice and he says that he wants to do something with economy. But he doesn't feel like doing it in Malaysia. I told him to take A-levels or diploma instead. Hope he thinks through...

CNY is coming to an end soon, but I still have unfinished homework left to do!! Luckily I have another 2 days of holidays! God, please bless me and give me the strength to finish all my college homework before this Wednesday! :)

CNY coming soon

2011-02-01T16:38:00.000+08:00

Hi. Sorry for not updating for a while. Anyway, CNY is coming soon and I'm so excited about it! We get angpao from the adults, get to enjoy delicious cookies and get to go back to our hometown to visit our relatives. What more can one ask for on a festive holiday?

Although I have to do a lot of homework and also study, I hope that I'll enjoy this CNY as this is my first CNY celebration with me not going to school, but college instead.

Well, hopefully all of us can collect lots of angpao and eat lots of cookies!

Nice day of studying in the college library

2011-01-28T18:43:00.000+08:00

Hi. Today I stayed back with my friends to study Maths and Further Maths in particular. The studying part was quite tiring and mental-draining, but the hanging out with friends part was so fun! There was this guy who is a genius in maths and further maths, but he is just so shy. But he's a nice guy though.

Anyway, tomorrow is the birthday outing and Angsana gathering. Thanks again Jia Bin for allowing us to throw the party at your house. It is surely going to be a blast!

Hopefully things go smoothly tomorrow. Speaking of which, I have to plan on what to wear tomorrow. I'm wearing the same outfit for both events. Hmmm... Some help here?

2nd week of college = more homework

2011-01-26T22:59:00.000+08:00

Hi. It's already the 2nd week of college already. Last week I was enjoying the excitement about starting college, getting to meet new friends and lecturers and getting to study in a different environment.

However, this week is a whole new different story. Even though the excitement is still there, most of it is being replaced by much homeworks and studying hours at the library. My class duties as treasurer are also starting to kick in. And the clubs and societies haven't even started yet!! Many lecturers of mine said that this two months (Jan & Feb) are the easiest months of this 1 1/2 years. OMG! More homework is coming, more complex concepts and questions and more responsibilities on the way!

Oh well, I'm going for the Angsana dinner at Jia Bin's house this Saturday, after Leannza's birthday outing. Ke Li and I are bringing ice cream from Sunway Pyramid, as I think we're going straight after Leannza's birthday outing. How hectic this weekend's going to be! God bless me please... :)

Dinner

2011-01-22T22:45:00.000+08:00

Hi. Just came back from a very full steamboat dinner. It was at Damansara Village, Damansara Jaya. My family & I had that dinner with my surgeon granduncle & family.

Anyway, tomorrow morning my family & I will have to go all the way to Setapak to eat Bah Kut Teh. I have recently googled "Bao Xiang Bah Kut Teh", and guess what? I found out the Pavillion one SUCKS! Luckily we're not going to the Pavillion branch tomorrow...

Hopefully the food there will be good and satisfying, as Brian and I have badminton after that. Wait, that means that Brian and I shouldn't be eating a lot there, right? Thank god...

Well, wait for my report then. :)

Boring...

2011-01-22T17:10:00.000+08:00

Yo! Finally... The college e-mailing service totally died on me!

I thought I could just send an e-mail from there but guess what? I failed to do even that!!

Anyway, all the government/national schools have replacement class today. I think it's for CNY. Which means my mother and brother wouldn't be at home for different periods of time. Left my dad & I at home.

My dad's currently taking a nap, my mother's at school, my brother's at a new Science tuition and I'm sitting here typing this new post for my blog.

Is it because I was bored?

Stupid college e-mail failed on me ):

2011-01-21T17:24:00.000+08:00

Today, our Chem lecturer wanted us to send her an e-mail before next Monday. I myself thought it'll be an easy task and decided to wait until I'm home to do it.

Guess what?

That particular e-mail service totally DIED on me!!

I am so lost right now. How can sending something as simple as an e-mail be that hard?!

I called the ICT helpdesk but they say that maybe the server is down. Hopefully things will go back to normal tomorrow (Saturday).

Oh God, why hurdle after hurdle? Can't life be as simple as it is?

May God bless and help me through this seemingly simple hurdle...

Drum roll please...

2011-01-20T17:49:00.000+08:00

Hi. After consulting many friends (Thanks guys), and also thinking a lot, I finally decided to....

Drum roll please...

NOT take German this year at least!!

Haiz ( This is a sigh of relief btw), I finally can concentrate on my studies and extra-curricular activities for now.

Thanks everyone!! :)

P/s: Please read this blog: http://afterastormcomesacalm.blogspot.com/

His blog is very nice to read when you just want to refresh your mind.

Not sure whether want to take German lessons or not

2011-01-20T15:38:00.000+08:00

ARRRRRGGGGHHHH! I'M IN SUCH A DILEMMA RIGHT NOW!

When I was on my so-called 'holiday', I wanted to continue my German lessons because I had nothing to do. But in the end she wasn't free and I really had to do NOTHING! But then, my parents and I met her again at a restaurant today. She mentioned about continuing the German lesson with another teacher at the German Institute Malaysia which is actually quite far away. But the worst thing is, now that I'm having 2nd thoughts about continuing with it, my parents want me to continue with it as they think it's for my own good and it actually started last week already, so I have to start THIS SATURDAY!!

I actually feel bad about telling my parents that I actually do not want to continue anymore or at least let me settle in with my college life for a few months first only continue with my German lessons. But if i don't tell them, I'm afraid that I might end up not liking it and thinking that it's a suffering. Besides, who spends like about 3 hours (+1 hour transport... Wait, doesn't that make 4?) learning German for RM750++ for only 5 months?!

WHAT SHOULD I DO??? Either:

I should join the German class which will start THIS Saturday and non-stop until May?
Or I should tell my parents to forget about it and spend time doing something else?

Anyway, one's Saturday is damn precious as it's 1 of the weekend days where one can rest one's mind, heart and soul. As Sydney J. Harris once quoted,

"Our dilemma is that we hate change and love it at the same time; what we really want is for things to remain the same but get better. "

Thaipusam

2011-01-19T20:01:00.000+08:00

Hi. Sorry for not updating my blog often. College has just started for me, with all the classes and all starting today, so I wasn't really free until now. Luckily it's Thaipusam tomorrow, so I can get a day's worth of rest. Not that I really need it, I have been resting since the end of SPM until now, but still it's still good to refresh my memory of some subjects before facing the lecturers again on Friday.

Today the lecturers were going a litttle bit too fast, but somehow I managed to catch up. Made me want to refresh my memory of Chemistry, Physics, Add Maths again. I think I might have forgotten most of it.

Anyway, today I was appointed the treasurer of my class, PS1. I nominated myself actually. But the job of a treasurer is just to collect money from the fellow students and pay some fees asked by the mentor teacher, I think. ( Oh ya, and also photostat money... That's going to cost us a bomb!)

Oh ya, that reminds me, better remember to collect the photostated material tomorrow before the shop closes. If not, we're screwed on Friday because Ms Elaine, our Chemistry lecturer, wants the lab manuals by Friday. And Dini and I better collect our lab coats and goggles on Friday earlier because Chemistry is the 1st 2 periods.

I was thinking whether I should join the student council or not. I have mixed feelings. Here I am thinking I should not just go back to being sort of like a "prefect" again; but on the other hand I feel that if I don't take this chance... Haiz, life's just like that, I guess... And there's also the decision of what clubs I should join. I think I should join as many clubs as I can as I want to make my testimonial and resume look good in the future.

Haiz, so many to think about, and so little time to execute it all.

College is starting tomorrow for me!

2011-01-17T22:16:00.000+08:00

Hi. I'm so excited that I think I could not sleep tonight. My college days are starting TOMORROW!! That's just made me so excited and pumped up with adrenaline that I couldn't wait. The orientation day is tomorrow so I hope I project a good image to my lecturers and seniors and possible friends.

Anyway, nobody I know is studying there, well except for a friend of mine from tuition. Hopefully I will be able to make new friends there. You guys know just how introvert I am. My PR skills are just not good yet. I still need to hone them.

Arrrrggghhh, calm down Audrey and get some sleep already. It'll be bad to take your student ID photo tomorrow if you have panda eyes, right? So good night!! Zzzzz...

Feeling so bored at home!

2011-01-14T14:40:00.000+08:00

Hi. I just thought of something...

Since I have nothing to do at home, I have been expressing myself a lot lately at this almost forgotten blog of mine. Anyway, today is just the same.

Tomorrow is my mother's birthday. My dad's off at Penang doing his business and I'm here hoping that he makes it back on time tomorrow evening to celebrate my mother's birthday dinner. Well, I hope the cake my cousins are getting for my mother works out perfectly too.

Another fun thing that I hope will come true is that I've invited my friends, Ke Li and Leannza to go present shopping with me tomorrow. It's already my mum's birthday tomorrow and I still can't figure out what to get her as her birthday present. The thrill and the excitement of going out with my friends to Tropicana City Mall and maybe Ke Li driving us there will probably boost my excitement!! Oh, I just can't wait!!

Today, while I was bathing, I had this thinking moment... Wait a minute, I'm not trying to be philosophical here, but I suddenly got nervous about my starting days in college next week. Now I'm having mixed emotions: one side I'm excited; another side I'm nervous of how people will treat me once I'm there. Hopefully I'm not the only ex-DJian there... I haven't exactly been an Albert Einstein in making friends and interacting with people.

Anyway, got a lot of thinking to do this week and also next week. This afternoon I told my mum that I can't wait for college to start next Tuesday, and she gives me this 'evil' grin, like a 'oh-then-I'll-torture-you-with-housework-until-next-Tuesday' grin. It's kinda scary...

Is having nothing to do wrong?

2011-01-11T19:59:00.000+08:00

Today for some strange reason I woke up at 12.30PM. At first I got scolded by my mum for waking up so late, then in the evening I got scolded by my dad for not having initiative?

DEAR, WHEN YOU HAVE 1 WEEK TO JUST SIT AROUND THE HOUSE AND DO NOTHING!! AND THEN YOU CAN'T DRIVE TO A SHOPPING MALL OR BOOKSTORE TO RELAX YOURSELF. YOU'RE BOUND TO FALL INTO COUCH POTATO MODE!! SOME MORE HAVE TO TAKE CARE OF THAT ANNOYING BROTHER WHO'S ALREADY 15 YEARS OLD BUT STILL DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO TAKE CARE OF HIMSELF...

Phew, that's 1 breath of vent. Although I can't say it out loud, it's great that I can express myself in my blog. Hmmm... Maybe I should wake up earlier tomorrow morning. But why? It's not like there'e nothing to do anyway. My schedule everyday is almost the same. Please god, let my college days start sooner!! I just can't wait!

Plus, the only happy news today is that Leannza and I decided that we will go Singapore this December holidays!! Staying in Singapore without my parents and my annoying brother for a change will be awesome! :)

SPM last paper

2010-12-11T17:05:00.000+08:00

Hi. Sorry for the late reply. Currently there are only 3 days left to my last paper including today...

Kinda trying to take it seriously but I always tend to stray off to something else like this...

Haiz. But at least it's better than those who had to sit for the papers after mine... Sorry!

Good luck to myself for the last paper of SPM for me!! Yay!

SPM Moral headaches...

2010-11-29T15:51:00.000+08:00

Hi. Sorry for not updating often.

Having SPM now. Feeling the stress already. Just wanting to let loose...

Maybe that's why I'm typing this blog now... I don't really know why?

Man, that's a damn lame excuse from myself... (Wait, did I just insulted myself???)

Haiz, eventhough tomorrow is the shortest paper of the week (it finishes at 10.30am), it still means that I have a lot to study!!

Wonder why people (especially students), have to MEMORISE moral nilai for exam? Shouldn't moral be practised instead of tested?

Home alone all day today

2010-07-03T19:20:00.000+08:00

Hi. Sorry for not blogging for a long time... Couldn't find anything to write.

Anyway, today was my home alone day. No, not the being home along for a few hours thing. This home alone was long, lasting from this morning all the way until now!!

I thought I would find something to do. Who knew it would be this boring!! After surfing the Internet for about 4 hours, I have completed everything I wanted to do today with the computer. I even watched another 3 to 4 hours of tv, then decided to be a good girl and help my parents with the house work.

Oh ya, so that you know, I was ALONE... No brother, no parents, just me ALONE. Alone all morning, alone all afternoon...

It was then I realised the joy of company. Being home alone not necessarily can be fun. It can be quite boring, VERY boring...

Anyway, hope that I can go out soon and walk in 1u maybe. See you guys soon!! :)

Chinese New Year Gathering at Derrick's house

2010-02-06T08:34:00.000+08:00

Hi. Sorry for not blogging for so long. Going to Yi May's house to do some chicken sausage puffs this afternoon. After that, Yi May's parents fetching us to Derrick's house just opposite the Curve for a 5 Angsana CNY Gathering.

Hope we will enjoy ourselves there. I'm going to bring my camera too to snap some great memories!! :)

5 Angsana rules!! (But try not to be so noisy in class, please?)

Form 5 2010

2010-01-29T21:50:00.000+08:00

Hi. After so long of not posting anything, i feel like posting something about my F5 year.

Anyway, my F5 year this year is VERY HECTIC, JAM-PACKED AND MESSY!! I have like 3 activities including tuition going on after school every Monday and Wednesday. And I always feel like I'm about to DIE on Wednesdays!! See, the timetable somehow put all 3 science subjects together: Bio, Chem and Physics. Besides that, we have to stay back on Wednesdays too until 1.40pm for Chemistry extra class. Then my friends and I will have to rush to our Chinese class at 2pm. So hectic man...

Then Monday, after school, i have to stay back for Kerjaya/PRS, then sometimes/ all the time we will have AJK meeting at 1.30pm. Then the real meeting starts at 2.30pm until 4pm. Then after that, I will have to go to my add maths tuition from 5pm to 7pm. After that, I will have to attend my BM tuition from 8pm to 10pm. Now that's damn jam-packed!! :(

But whatever the cost I have to pay, I will strive to get good results for all my tests this year! I will also try to finish all my homework and pass up on time! I will also excel in my co-curriculum and also try to practise piano more often than usual. "Always hope for the best!" :)

My dad scolded me over not bringing my wallet to a friend's house?

2010-01-09T19:00:00.000+08:00

Hi. Long time no see. Sorry for not posting anything new this few months. Anyway, my dad just called me a few minutes ago. He asked me whether I know my Sakae Sushi card number or not. Since my wallet wasn't with me, i told him that. He then scolded me and said that it was my bad habit for always not bringing my wallet and house key wherever i go. But why must i bring my wallet to my friends house? House key thing i can understand, but wallet? Sometimes he just doesn't make any sense. Well, i think my family will have to eat at the steamboat restaurant tonight. Unless they come home to find my school bag to take my wallet to get my Sakae Sushi card, which is highly unlikely... SORRY DAD, MUM AND BRIAN< FOR BECAUSE OF ME, YOU GUYS DON"T GET TO EAT SAKAE SuSHI!!! :(

Holiday to Guilin, China

2009-12-07T20:02:00.000+08:00

Hi. Sorry for not updating after so long... Anyway, today I just came back from Guilin, China. People say that the scenery there is the best in China. I think so too...

I arrived at Guilin at about 10.30am. We actually had to wake up at 2am just to get ready to go to the LCCT terminal from our house! Anyway, since it was my family's first time with the LCCT terminal, there was a little bit of a problem.

My dad thought we were smart to check in online. But what we didn't know was that the counter for us who checked in online is different than those who check in on the spot. So we had to go to a different counter and wait there while other people check in their bags. We actually waited there for about an hour! Talk about being "smart"! :S Anyway, at the end, we managed to check in and took off from LCCt at about 6.50am.

Guilin was very cold! When we arrived there, the temperature was about 15-18 degree celsius. The scenery was very nice and we were lucky as when we were going to the scenery places, it wasn't so misty so we could see all the sceneries quite well. Let' see, we travelled around Guilin the first day, took a 4-hour cruise to Yangshuo and stayed there at the second day. [I think I also bought something there...(:] Then, on the third day, we travelled to see the Long Ji at a minority village which too us about 3 hours getting there!

Grandma staying with me again...

2009-11-20T12:00:00.000+08:00

Hi. After enjoying a few months of peace without my grandma (man, i actually sound mean when i say that), she's finally here again. But i do miss her though. Even so, she's a little annoying and stubborn... (sorry, grandma...)With her around, everything has to be done at her own pace. No kidding, when she wants something to be done, it has to be done, although now we tell her to stop asking us to do the something and just sit at the sofa or go to her room and take a nap. (Man, i'm sounding very mean again...)

But anyway, she's still my grandma, so it's not my right to talk so badly about her. But sometimes, you just need to let it all out. ARRRRRRGGGGGHHHH!!

Alright, i'm done letting out now...

Holidays have started...

2009-11-15T19:13:00.000+08:00

Hi. Sorry for not updating my blog. Anyway, for me, it has been holiday since last Wednesday, when I decided that i was no longer going to school forever unless needed. True enough, because i forgot to pass something to my mum to pass to Yean Yi, i've have to go back to school again. But i hope that was the last time...

Anyway, I was sick from last Monday to Tuesday or Wednesday, i think... At first, my father got a sore throat which then after he checked it with the doctor, was an ulcer at the throat. Then he passed that sickness to my brother, which he then evolved it into a sore throat, and a flu. Then because of my kindness treating and taking care of my brother, i contracted it. So i was like having headaches, really bad sore throat and flu, teary eyes... It was so bad that I woke up at night and CRIED!! :( Anyway, it's somehow cured now, except for a few coughs and sometimes a blocked nose. I really do hope that i will get well soon... :)

Then, when i went back to school on Wednesday, I found out that I actually got 58% for Moral. At first, i was shocked. But then i was also glad that i didn't fail. I actually got 0/10 for 1 of the essays! Oh well...

Then i found out that Jian Nee has quitted the prefectorial board! Wow, that was shocking... First, Wai Kee quitted and then now Jian Nee?! Who is going to take over their jobs, i wonder?

Oh ya, i was told that we have to go and collect our SPBT books on the 14th and 15th of December. But i will be at outward bound at that time, so i asked my parents to come and help me collect. You know Pn Tan, she will scold you like crazy if you don't come and collect at those days... I just don't want to come on her bad students list... But i am missing in on some details, like where to collect, what time to come and collect and stuff... If any of you know, please leave a comment at my blog. Will come and check later... Thank you! :)

School starting tomorrow..

2009-09-27T17:56:00.000+08:00

Hi. School's starting tomorrow, so i guess it's back to sleeping early and waking up early again... Although most of us will sleep late and wake up early... :P

Then i thought 'OH SHIT! I STILL HAVE MY NILAM BOOK TO FINISH AND PASS UP BY TOMORROW!!' I finished doing all the English books already, but i still need at least 9 more BM books to go. And my house doesn't have any BM books, and the school library is under rewiring, so the books are all now in boxes!! How ah? HELP!!

Oh well, guess i just have to tell teacher that i can't find any BM books? See you guys in school tomorrow!! :)

Holidays about to end...

2009-09-24T14:53:00.000+08:00

Hi. Holidays are about to end, and after that, school's ending at the usual time again!! :(

Oh, how i miss the days when we all get to end at about 12.30pm and then have another extra half an hour of rest before we go for our tuition...

Oh well, there is some good when school starts next week. See, if the date doesn't change again, PREFECT's DINNER will be on the 3rd of October, which is next Saturday at the Royale Bintang Hotel at The Curve!! Can't wait for that!! :)

Then the final year exams are coming up... :( About that, I haven't started studying for it yet!! I know that it's going to be tough, but i just don't have the mood to study! Hmmmm...Myabe going back to school will help?

Do you know what's the worst part? The final year exams will start on the day BEFORE MY BIRTHDAY!! I hope the date's wrong... cuz i wanna celebrate my birthday just like anyone else!! :(

Have been working out at the gym in The Club, Bukit Utama recently. My brother has been teasing me of not working out as hard as him, but hey, girls are girls and boys are boys, you know... Sometimes i just don't have as much physical strength as you. Anyway, i hope to be slimmer when i go back to school next week, at least slim enough to look pretty on that outfit i'm planning to wear to the prefect's dinner next Saturday...

Oh shit, i forgot that i had to do my NILAM and my MORAL PROJECT!! What am I going to do? Better start working on it now, or else En Tun will give me 0 marks ( I think that's what he said...) and Pn Nora will deduct 5 marks from my final year!! Ahhhhh!!! So see you guys later!! :)

Hari Raya holidays!!

2009-09-18T11:52:00.000+08:00

Hi. Hari Raya holidays have just started today! I think I was supposed to give the 'yay, holidays have just arrived' estatic look, but when i went back home, all i could think of was SLEEP. I seriously needed to replenish my sleep, or i will just on eday faint in school and never wake up cuz i am too sleepy, lol...

And since i have nothing on on that Thursday, i went back home, and slept for about 4 hours? I remembered i woke up at 6pm though...

Then Friday. I still have to go for my Chemistry tuition later from 4-6pm and luckily there isn't any hw to do. Then i'll have to complete my Eng Lit hw (or at least try to complete it...)

Oh, lunch ready. Gtg and savour it... bye.

School's starting tomorrow... But ending early!!

2009-08-31T15:10:00.000+08:00

Hi. Finally, school's starting tomorrow... Not that I'm upset, but it's just that we have been holiday-ing for so long already. It's just time for all of us to get our asses back to school! Anyway, even so, school is ending early, at 12.30pm due to the puasa month. Isn't that great? We get to come home 1/2 an hour earlier!! YEAH!! :)

Later, I have got to go to my Add Maths tuition and my new Physics tuition. I can't say that I'm excited to go but I have to go or else my parents will MURDER me!! :P Anyway, the new Physics tuition is kinda scaring me off... I wonder whether I'll meet anyone I know of there? Cuz it's just a replacement class (my actual class is on a Wednesday), I think i should be fine...

See you guys in school tomorrow!! :)

Bought a new handphone!!

2009-08-30T20:57:00.000+08:00

Hi. Guess what, i complained to my parents about how run down my phone is, and then we visited a few Nokia stores to compare the prices on the phone I want. And poof! My brother and I get the same new handphone, just different colours!! Although I wanted blue colour, red colour is fine with me... :)

This new Nokia 5130 Xpressmusic is great, at least compared to my old Nokia 3200 phone... Since it's Xpressmusic, you can guess that it has to do with lots of song listening... Since i love to listen to songs, i chose this handphone as it's good and it comes with a cheap price.

Anyway, will show it to you guys if i have the chance. See you guys at school on Tuesday! Can't believe holidays are ending so quickly... T.T

Grandma staying with me...

2009-08-29T17:30:00.000+08:00

Hi. Maybe I have not mentioned her before, but i have an 86/87 year old grandma from my father's side. She's staying with me right now, and that's because my rich aunty and husband, second aunty and husband, third uncle and some of their friends are going to Taiwan. They should have arrived by now...

Anyway, not that i don't like her, but she can sometimes be a nuisance!! Can't blame her though... :)

Changing all my tuition...

2009-08-27T13:42:00.000+08:00

Hi. Starting from next month, all my tuition are going to be changed, or at least 90% of them... First, it all started with the Chemistry tuition. I kinda told my mum that En Zhen wasn't going for Pn Yap's tuition later, and she was like "you must go, unless you don't benefit from it, then stop and find another tuition teacher la..." And I was like "Maybe Pn Yap's tuition just isn't benefiting me, you know, with the large amount of people and the way of her teaching which is almost the same as Pn Norela's..." And then she was like " okay, let's change then" So we kinda stopped Pn Yap's tuition for September and went on with another teacher...

Then came Physics... You know, having Mr Chang to teach the two of us just isn't good enough. Sorry, Mr Chang, but i really do pity you for only teaching the two of us and waste your whole afternoon... So we kinda discussed about it and decided to stop Mr Chang's Physics tuition and switch to Mr Phang (or at least I am...)

Then came to switching my Chinese class to Thursday. We actually had to call Cik Cho to ask whether can change or not. And my mum was like "See, now i suddenly became your secretary... :P" But finally she said can, so to those of you out there, Audrey is now in Thursday's Chinese class, not Wednesday and to all Chinese students, Chinese class next week will be from 1.30 to 3.15pm.

So ya, now my schedule is very different and i'll be quite busy from now on. So there will be different staying back times... See ya! :)

Physics tuition alone today

2009-08-26T21:48:00.000+08:00

Hi. Today is a Wednesday, rite? That means that I was supposed to have Physics tuition with Nerissa at Mr Chang's place. At first, i was dreading to go there, but after much persuasion by my mind, i forced myself to change into a pair of jeans and a new T-shirt and went for the tuition. But guess what, Nerissa didn't turn up! :( So I had to sit there like a fool and do revision with Mr Chang.

Not to say that Mr Chang isn't good, but his way of teaching is just sometimes boring!! And some more the lighting there isn't good, so after my Chinese class at school, I will just ALWAYS fall asleep there!! I know that isn't going to help me but i was just so tired and with the poor lighting, it just drives me to nap there!!

So, you can imagine when i was there, and it was just dark skies and a slight drizzle, plus the lighting there just isn't bright enough. And what's more, Nerissa didn't turn up yoday for no apparent reason that we know of. I sms-ed Pn Cecilia but got no reply, so my assumption was that maybe either they forgot or they went for a vacation or they were out and forgot to bring thrie handphone. Whatever the reason, i still had to spent my whole 1 hour and a half doing revision on latent heat and Q=ml/Q=mc"tita" which was supposed to be unnecessary if she turned up. Not that the revision wasn't going to help me in my Physics but i just didn't want to do so many of those exercises!! Sorry, Mr Chang! :)

Had pancakes for dinner, then parents went out again...

2009-08-25T22:08:00.000+08:00

Hi. Guess what, i had pancakes for dinner!! The ones you fry with the vege and chili in it, i think, but it was a bit different than eating rice and dishes da bao from Botak again. Anyway, after dinner, my parents said that they were going out again, and just now, my brother just said that they sms-ed him and said that they are now at Ikano/The Curve/Ikea. Anyway, lets just let them have their alone time together without us... :P

You know about the lamianted flooring? My parents actually dismantled the blue table attached to the cupboards and said that the room will look spacious. Luckily i insisted that i wanted a table, that's why they are at Ikea now... :) I just can't wait for my new table to arrive... Hope it gets here by today and set up by today. :)

Mum went out for lunch...

2009-08-25T13:07:00.000+08:00

Hi. Mum just came back from PTK exam. Said that it was quite tough, but i think she must have managed to scrape it through... :) Anyway,she's now going out for lunch with her friends, leaving us at home again with Botak's da bao dishes and home-cooked rice for lunch. I'm not saying that those dishes are not good, but... never mind.

Will be blogging again anytime soon...:)

Mum went for PTK exam!!

2009-08-25T10:07:00.000+08:00

Hi. Today is mum's PTK exam day!! She went off quite early, so we sent her off yesterday evening with lots of wishes of luck and hope that she passes, cuz that means that we'll get a raise in pocket money!! :P

Good luck mum!! :)

Floor lamination finally done!!

2009-08-25T09:54:00.000+08:00

Hi. Finally the floor lamination thing is done. They really managed to finish everything in 1 day!! I love the new laminated flooring man, so cool....

After they had finished with the flooring, my brother had to go out with his friends, so we all decided to go out and eat Mcdonalds, then come back home to finish the cleaning up work. The cleaning up work took us from about 8.30pm to about 12am. We had to clean all the boxes, sweep and mop the floor and also arrange the stuff back into their respective places. I got to arrange and clean the white cupboard!! Yeah!! :P

Anyway, we amnaged to clear about 6 boxes of stuff? Hope the new laminated flooring will last... :)

The floor lamination finally started at about 12.30pm

2009-08-24T14:34:00.000+08:00

Hi. Finally, it has started!! The workers came at about 10.30am, but the STUPID lorry only arrived at about 12pm!! The workers had to wait until they all went out for lunch and we also had to wait for the damn lorry!! :/

Anyway, the work has already started, and i really hope that they can finish doing everything in 1 day... If not, i'll curse them until the next day!! :S

Anyway, i'm playing the laptop now, as the desktop computer cannot be used. Oh well, i hope that they can finish it on time so that i can use the computer again!! :)

The floor lamination hasn't started yet!!

2009-08-24T11:22:00.000+08:00

Hi. Finally the 2 guys came at about 10.30am, but they said that they had to wait for the lorry with all their things to come before thay can actually start doing anything... So okay, we will wait as my brother is having guitar lessons and my mum has to study for her PTK exam tomorrow... Even so, the lorry is really coming from a faraway place, i think, cuz it's NOT HERE YET!! Where's it driven from?

Haiz, if the work hasn't started yet, how do they expect to finish it in a day?It's already almost 11.30am, and they haven't even started anything yet!! :(

I want my bed back!!

Floor lamination day!!

2009-08-24T09:16:00.000+08:00

Hi. It's floor lamination day today!! TIme to say goodbye to the old flooring and hello to the new flooring!! I think i'll love the new laminated flooring though, i think it'll be better than the old parquet flooring. The old flooring just keep tearing apart, you know the wooden pieces coming apart and we have to use glue everytime to glue the pieces back together again. It's just proven too much a hassle to put back together those 16-year-old pieces...

Anyway, i hope the guy will come soon so that i can see the new flooring being done and once they are done, we will be able to put all the things back into their respective places and play the computer again!! :P

Brian...

2009-08-23T19:18:00.000+08:00

To my dearest brother out there, please UPDATE your blog!! I can't believe you actually forgot what was your blogspot address!!

Anyway, just update it quick, cuz when i give Yean Yi your blog add, she will keep asking you to update it!! :P

Going out to dinner with over 20 people!!

2009-08-23T19:02:00.000+08:00

Hi. Guess what? I am going to go out for dinner with over 20 people at almost the same place we eat every Sunday, DAMANSARA VILLAGE!! (In case you guys don't know, it's opposite the Shell petrol station when you go up the slope in DJ)

Anyway, this dinner will be sttended by my surgeon uncle and family, datuk and datin uncle and aunty and their children, another aunty and children, and I don't even know who else is coming!! Anyway, those children are so sexists!! They will side like the girl's group and guy's group and then they will start calling each other names like you stupid and shit you!! Those groups are just so annoying to handle la...

But anyway, the idea of going out somewhere to have dinner is fun and interesting? I think i better bring something there and do or risk getting killed by all the shouting and names-calling by the so called 'groups'...

Wish me luck, i think i need it... :)

Seems that they are friends again...

2009-08-21T17:22:00.000+08:00

Hi. Just now, after showering, those 2 friends told me that they are *friends* again... That was quite shocking as they were neck to neck just before i showered... He/she even said that he/she wanted to DIE!! :S

Anyway, wish them all the best in their relationship!! :)

Trouble between 2 very close friends...

2009-08-21T16:53:00.000+08:00

Hi. I was playing my internet games when suddenly, i receive a distress call from someone, saying that he/she argued with the his/her friend, and that they are *not becoming friends anymore* woh...

So i suddenly became the middle person, why is that so? I wonder too...

Anyway, I really hope the two of them can *be friends again*... He/she has to be smarter and try to pujuk him/her back... Why you just don't understand??? :(

Anyway, i also found out that i can also be a relationship consultant... That would be interesting... :P

Good luck to you both!! :)

Sorry but now i'm currently addicted to it

2009-08-08T15:07:00.000+08:00

This is our family eating sugarcane. I know you guys are already bored of it, but seeing another 2 more pics won't kill you, so happy seeeing!! :)

The art of eating sugarcane...

2009-08-08T14:52:00.001+08:00

And this is my brother eating a piece of sugarcane. It's damn hard to eat, you know... At the last pic which I took in a series of pics, he is seen to be head almost on the sofa while holding the sugarcane stick up high... :) Wow, seems that he took a lot of energy to peel that one to eat!! Pn Sharon says that this is the art of eating sugarcane, and she says that this helps to clean our teeth?? Anyway, this is the art of eating sugarcane, presented to you by my YOUNGER brother, Brian.

The sugarcane pics I promised

2009-08-08T14:43:00.000+08:00

My father and mother eating... :) ( That's Pn Sharon!!)

And this is my YOUNGER brother, Brian. Mind you, he's taller than me!! :)

I'm finally updating after so long...

2009-08-08T14:01:00.000+08:00

Hi people! I know that I have not been updating this blog of mine, so I'm going to do so now.

This week, things are going on as usual. Monday to Thursday this week was vquite boring as a lot of students went out for MPK practice in the hall. Friday and MPK and yes, you guessed it. Even more sien!! :( Anyway, Saturday morning we went swimming and guess what? My parents planned to send my bro and I for swimming classes!! :( Then in the afternoon, we all had sugarcane. EATING, NOT DRINKING SUGARCANE JUICE. That was an unforgettable experience for us. We are even going to put the pics we taken on9 later.

Okay, that's all for this week. Hope you all enjoyed it!! Please wait for the sugarcane pics. :)

Yean Yi forced me to update it!! :)

2009-06-28T18:32:00.000+08:00

Hi people!! Although the title says that I don't want to update my blog, but I thought about it and said that it's time to update it... :)

Anyway, it's MPS starting tomorrow. For those of you who don't know what is MPS, it stands for Minggu Pusat Sumber. And all my librarian friends will be skipping classes just to entertain those students in the library...

And some more, tomorrow's perhimpunan will be longer than usual. But at least it's in the hall, or at least that's what my librarian friend, Yi May says. At least I could lean onto something... You know, it's damn tired to keep on standing and watch over the students..

Oh ya, tomorrow is Yean Yi's birthday. So I'm planning to buy a big/small present for her. She better remember to buy something back for me!! :) Just kiding...

Finally going back home...

2009-06-09T10:25:00.000+08:00

Hi. After a whole day and night of playing around at Yi May's house and sleepover, I'm finally going home today. I wonder whether they have fixed the fuse box at home already or not...

Anyway, I have to start practising for my accounts test this Friday. I haven't started yet!! AHHHH..!

Then, I have to practise piano already, since I haven't been practising. I also have to finish the Mag Inc project which I plan to pass up on time. (Leannza, you better finish both articles and e-mail them to me by this week, or else...)

Haiz, why do I suddenly have so much work to do? :(

Sleepover at Yi May's house

2009-06-08T10:31:00.000+08:00

Hi. I'm at Yi May's house now, having a sleepover today with Leannza and Yean Yi. I kinda reached her house very early as my house's fuse kinda burnt itself out, so from 4am till now, my house had no electricity... So I had to come to Yi May's house early as I wanted to enjoy some electricity... (Eeek, she's sitting beside me... (Smiles sheepishly)

Anyway, Ke Li and Sze Yin later in the afternoon... And Leannza and Yean Yi's not here yet!! Haiz, Leannza's most probably still sleeping... So Let's kacau her!! (Looks at Yi May and says :"You thinking what I'm thinking?" "KACAU HER NOW!!")

I hope today and tomorrow we'll have a great time... :)

Didn't get to watch Monsters Vs Aliens in 3D

2009-06-06T15:52:00.000+08:00

ARRRRRGGGGHHHHHH!! DAMN ANGRY LA...!!

That was I felt just now when my cousins said that they cannot come to watch the movie. My family said that I shouldn't go too... But I still couldn't let it go... This is my second movie in 3D that I missed!! ARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!

Damn them la...!! @#$%

You know yesterday, they all planned to go to my cousins house the next day in the morning. My cousin somemore said that he would come and fetch them at about 9 or 9.30am.

Then, the next day arrived. He then suddenly called and said that they have just arrived at his house at 12pm and has just started to clean. Then they said that they wouldn't have the time so they said that they cannot go for the movie woh... I was like 'Whhh...hhhat!?' Then when I told my father that after coming back from tuition, he was like 'WTH!! They don't know how to plan one ah! Aiya, you all no need to go la... Spend time visiting your grandpa later better!!' 'Yes, dad.'

You know, we planned that movie thing since last week already?! We even discussed on what movie to watch before i booked the movie!! @#$% Then at the last minute, they said that they cannot make it, and then WE ALL CANNOT WATCH THE MOVIE!! Evem more@#$%s...

Ok. Maybe it's time to chill... See you guys later after I chill... :)

2 movies in a week

2009-06-05T12:11:00.001+08:00

Hi. I just watched Night At The Museum 2: Battle of the Smithsonians on Wednesday with Leannza only. We also hunted for the cheapest place to eat our lunch... You know, my budget was RM 50, but i already spent RM 25 to buy Night At The Museum before lunch. Leaving only about another RM 25 for lunch, movie ticket, and popcorn, I think...

But the movie was really worth watching!! It was so funny that I laughed the entire movie! Too bad Yi May couldn't come and watch with us... :(

Anyway, my brother and I are going with my cousins tomorrow to watch Monsters Vs Aliens in 3D! This will be my first 3D movie, so i can't wait for it!!! :)

And then next Monday, I'm going for a sleepover at Yi May's house. I can't wait for that too! Btw, yi May, you should think about it before deciding on buying the Twister set... Never mind. :)

Holidays have arrived!!

2009-05-31T20:24:00.000+08:00

Yo, guys! Long time no see...

At SMKDJ, the mid-term exams have just finished and the HOLIDAYS have just started!

Well, isn't that fun? And exciting?

Well, most people have their first week booked for tuitions, and the librarians are going for camp on the second week.

Which leaves me hogging in front of the computer in the second week...

Even so, I can't believe there are still things to worry about in the second week!

Mag Inc (because that Leannza is drowning under pressure [Ya, I read your blog]) is really worrying me!

Haiz, can't a normal F4 student get some rest during the holidays?!

Hols that come by fast...

2009-01-27T00:10:00.000+08:00

Hi. January sure passed by fast. We just started 3 weeks of F4 and poof! It's CNY already...

Anyway, how are your CNY celebrations? Mine was quite awesome. By awesome i mean going to A LOT OF open houses and house warming parties, eating LOTS OF good food and also collecting LOTS OF ANGPAO!! I think that's the most important thing for us during CNY. I feel so full right now writing this blog.

Even so, during this CNY holidays, the homework from tuition and school will also rise to become a small mountain. Or maybe i shall call it big... I've been asking myself to try and do bit by bit every day, but i just seem to be called to attend every open house and house warming party there is. When i reach home everyday, it will be like this time of the day... Quite tiring also... Hope you all won't be like me. If you all hope to, good luck in coping all the open houses and house warming parties :)

About my trip to Taipei and HK

2008-12-25T23:12:00.000+08:00

Hi guys. I haven't seen you all for 8 days already. Did you all miss me? Anyway, I'm going to tell you all about my awesome trip to Taipei and HK for the past 8 days!

My family and I woke up at about 6am on the 18th of December as our taxi was coming at 7am. My brother and I was so excited about the trip that we couldn't sleep the previous night! Our taxi came on time, and we reached the airport at about 8am. The journey to KLIA took us about 45 mins to an hour. We had 1 bag each plus 2 bag packs (my brother and I) and 1 hand carry luggage which we always bring on any trip. So looking at the amount of bags was like: Wow... Then we checked our baggage, leaving only the hand carry and my brother and mine bag packs. We then went to the Plaza Premium Lounge to rest for a while and have some breakfast. The food was quite okay and I even got to use the Internet service there. Since our flight was at 9.20am, we only went to the boarding gate to wait at about 8.50am. When we arrived there, we were just in time.

Our flight was a Cathay Pacific one, and we had to transit at the HK airport before flying again to the Taipei Taoyuan International Airport. We reached the HK airport at about 12.30pm as our flight to HK took us about 4 hours. Then we had to stay at the HK airport for about an hour and a half. Finally, our next flight took off from HK airport at 1.20pm and we arrived at Taipei Taoyuan International Airport at about 2.20pm. When we first arrived at the Taipei airport, it was quite cold as the temperature was below 20. We all had to wear our jackets as the cold wind was blasting onto our skin. We then went to claim bags and guess what?! My mum lost her bag!! It was the first time she lost her bag on an international journey and she says that she wants to go on a shopping spree if her bag really has gone missing and couldn't be found. She could claim some insurance money, about RM500... So it was something new to us all. Anyway, we then did some procedures about my mother's missing bag, and then we took a airport taxi to our hotel, Grand Formosa Regent Hotel. My dad actually went on the wrong side to board the car! You see, in Taiwan, the driver seat is on the LEFT hand side, whereas in Malaysia, the driver's seat is on the RIGHT hand side. So my dad went on the RIGHT hand side of the car, and wanted to get in when he saw the steering wheel in front of him. He quickly changed sides and let the taxi driver to drive instead of him. It took us about 1 hour to reach our hotel, but the hotel was really good. It had a bath tub and a nice, cosy lounge. My brother then checked out the swimming pool on the 4th floor with my dad but the pump was spoilt. Too bad... After an hour of rest, we then decided to go shopping along the roads linking to our hotel. There were all these designer brands next to our hotel:Gucci, Dunhill...After that, we walked to the MRT station (It's like our LRT but better... :P) and bought two whole days cards to be used tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. At the end of the day, the airport sent my mum's missing bag to our hotel. She was happy that she did not have to buy a whole new bag of clothes.

On the 2nd day, my dad had these places to visit in Taipei and we walked like mad! Our legs felt like jelly and we were very exhausted by the time we got back to our hotel rooms. But it was all worth it as we got to see all the beautiful scenic spots in Taipei, but dad, I have to tell you, you should spread out the sites! You're tiring us out! Then the 3rd day was not as tired as the 2nd day, but still as tired. Again, we did more walking... Then on the 4th day, we flew back to HK and checked into Renaissance Hotel. The room here is VERY small compared to the rooms we had in Taipei, but okay la...

On the 2nd day in HK, we visited Macau and joined the local tour there. We didn't finish the tour as we had to leave Macau at 5.30pm and the tour ends at 6.30pm. So we only visited until the Macau Tower. At the Macau Tower, they had this observation deck made on glass floors so you could see the 58 floors under those glass floors. It was a scary sight for me as I was a little afraid of heights. After we visited Macau, we celebrated my Gu Zhang's birthday at Lei Garden. Since my cousin was working here, he told us the quick and easy way to go there using the MTR (It's also something like MRT and LRT, that's why it's so confusing...) Our cousin and cousin-in-law, who arrived from London at the same day as us, was there too, so it was kind of like a family reunion as we always don't get to see each other together. My family and I gave Gu Zhang a tie we bought from the Dunhill store in Taipei. My parents said that they saw the China president, Hu Jin Tao, wear this tie in a picture and thought it might be a very suitable present as my Gu Zhang is the president of Taisei.

On the 3rd day, my family and I went to HK Disneyland. The Disneyland here is quite small, but it's a good start as this was our first Disneyland before we move on to the bigger ones. The only Roller Coaster ride available was Space Mountain, and even that was a little small. Most of the rides there were for small kids: Winnie the Pooh, Tarzan, Disney's Princesses... But I still bought some souvenirs: two pairs of earrings, and a badge to pin on my Leo vest.

Then the 4th day-Christmas Eve. My cousin took us all to eat roasted goose in Tian Jing. We had to take the MTR to Jordan Station, then take a mini bus to Tian Jing. The roasted goose was delicious. My family, my cousin and her husband, and I the took the bus to Mong Kok and took the MTR to Tsim Tsa Tsui. We then wanted to go back to our hotel, but we found this huge crowd walking aimlessly and the road straight back to our hotel was closed already. So we had to walk the LONG way back and i tell you, the road was REALLY LONG!! But we still managed to get some great shots of the Christmas scenery in the city. I'll post some pics later. We then thought that there might be fireworks at 12am and waited for the time to come. But nothing happened. No fireworks, no boom, nothing... But we managed to walk on HK's Avenue of Stars. It was like Hollywood's Walk Of Fame. We saw a lot of HK artists and singers with their hand prints and their signature.It really was quite awesome!

Then comes today. We packed up, checked out of the hotel at about 10.30am, and followed my cousin and cousin-in-law to eat noodles at Mong Kok. It was popular with beef but only I ordered the beef noodles. The beef balls tasted like pork balls, just that their colour was darker. The noodles was okay and we finally said our goodbyes. We then boarded the shuttle bus to the Kowloon train station and took the Airport Express to the airport. We then boarded our Cathay Pacific plane at 3.20pm and reached Malaysia at about 7pm. There were a lot of turbulence along our flight. I could feel the plane going up and down continuously... Luckily we had our seat belts strapped to us. After we arrived at Malaysia, I found out that the rain might be the cause of our turbulence. Our baggage took a very long time to come out and we were afraid that our bags might go missing again... But luckily it didn't. And we took a limo back home to our home sweet home. And now I'm writing this blog, telling you all about my awesome trip to Taipei, HK and also Macau. Hope you guys liked it! :)

All tuitions are finally over!!

2008-12-15T17:29:00.000+08:00

ALL MY TUITIONS FOR THE YEAR 2008 ARE FINALLY OVER!! Wow, that's a really big relief. I can now relax and go on my holiday this Thursday, but i don't think so myself... My piano teacher told me to finish all my 2005 papers before I can go off to Taipei and HK. But I have only finished A, not B,C and S yet... How ah? I guess I better finish everything by this Wednesday and pass up to her by putting it in her post box by then, or I will be screwed by my parents for not finishing my hw. So I better start doing those papers, which are 3 hours each..:( I just had my last German class of the year finished at 5pm. I had to do chapters 15 and 16 as my hw, but I have my brother helping me, so I'm not so worried, I think... Holiday, holiday, holiday... Hw, hw, hw...

I'm finally going out to watch Twilight!

2008-12-13T09:24:00.000+08:00

I finally managed to book 3 tickets to watch Twilight in big screens surrounded with boxes of popcorn and plastic cups of soft drinks. I've been struggling to reserve/book 3 tickets to watch Twilight, either at GSC or at TGV through online booking. The first day I tried, Thursday, I tried the GSC online reservation service. Since I was a member, I thought that I coukd book the tickets a little earlier and also manage to get some good seats. But when I clicked Twilight, they said that it was FULL! Full, then we don't have to watch already la... Anyway, I tried the other times. The times available were 12, 2.25, 4.40... Since we had to go back at about 5.30, i thought that i try out the 2.25 and 4.40, but they said that it was also FULL! How can that be? Then I tried to book TGV tickets, but they said that to book tickets through TGV online, we need to be 18 years old, have a credit card...... I am only 15, can't TGV be a little more like GSC? Anyway, so I couldn't book the tickets either through GSC or TGV. I almost wanted to book another movie when I thought about the calling system. Besided booking movie tickets online, you can also call their number. It's provided in the English newspaper everyday, i think... SO i tried the calling system yesterday, how come I didn't think about it? Anyway, I called their number: 0383123456. Then it rang twice, and the whole thing started: Welcome to GSC's phone reservation. Please note, that if you are booking for GSC tickets at the Berjaya Times Square or *some other place*, 1 ringgit will be charged upon tickets' collection. For Pavilion, KL, press 1...... While that was playing, I prayed to myself: Please make this calling thing worth my time... Then it came to Twilight movie: Friday, 12thDecember, press 5. Saturday, 13th December, press 6... I quickly pressed '6' and then it continued. "Twilight PG13, press 3" So I did. I pressed '3'. Then it said again: 2.25pm, press 1. 4.40pm, press 2......So I pressed '1'. Then it said: Please enter the number of tickets you wish to reserve. The maximum number of tickets is 6. So I pressed '3' and waited... "Please key in your hp no followed by the # key" So I did what they asked, and waited again...Then it repeated my phone no, and asked me to confirm it by pressing 1, so I did. Then it said something that made me smile: "Your reservation number is 84666, to confirm your reservation, please press 1. Thank you for choosing GSC cinemas, have a nice day." Oh I have a nice day alright, I am going to have a good day. After that I quickly called Leannza to tell her the good news. She was like:" Audrey, YOU MANAGED TO BOOK IT?! WOW!!" Maybe I was a little bit exaggerating, but still... Anyway, I am just sharing my experience of booking movie tickets online and through the telephone. Hope you all share my joy! :)

German, German, German...

2008-12-08T14:19:00.000+08:00

Hallo. Meine Name ist Audrey Leow Hui-Li. Und du?

That was a few sentences in German. Here's the translation for those sentences...

"Hello. My name is Audrey Leow Hui-Li. And you?"

The reason why I wrote these sentences is because I just had German class this morning, at 9.30am till 11am. She actually extended the time, the class was supposed to be a 1-hour-lesson. The lesson was going on quite smoothly, when almost at the end of the lesson, she suddenly said: "I don't think we have enough time to finish our lesson for the year, so I'm suggesting that we have extra lessons this week and also next week as you all are going to Taiwan and HK next, next week..." What? Extra lessons? And I thought normal German classes were a little tiring already. or that was what my brother thought? I was okay with the extra classes but my brother was already making noises once she was gone. " What was she thinking?! Extra classes, I am going to DIE already from all the classes and she is telling me that she wants to have EXTRA CLASSES? Is she out of her mind?" Oh, did I tell you that the first extra class is tomorrow, starting from 1pm to 2pm? Then my brother has guitar lessons from 2.30pm. That is why he was complaining so much about the extra classes...

Anyway, I haven't done the German hw she gave today yet, and I still don't have the mood to do it yet... So how ah? I think she gave a lot of hw today... :(

TIme which passes by slowly...

Life now after school and PMR is very boring... Although I have books, anime, movies, outings, TV shows, Internet and music to accompany me, I still feel very bored! Man, I hope that my family and I can go to Taipei and HK real soon! I'm not sure what the journey's like, but I want it to be a surprise... I'm not like my brother who wants to know everything first before he does it (if you get what i mean...), I love surprises. So I decided to not know about the trip until they tell me, means that I'm not going to ask them (my parents) what the trip's like, what will we do on the trip and how's our flight... All I know is that we are going to stay in a quite good hotel (I even checked the website...), the rest I don't know... Haiz, time really passes by VERY SLOWLY now...

No going jogging today!!

Hello. I know this title sounds weird, but it's actually a good title! See, my brother and I always have to go jogging every Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday. And today is a Friday, so we are actually supposed to go today... My brother and I were talking about it yesterday about why do we have to 'suffer' like this, and slept that Thursday night dreading that Friday morning when our mums will wake us up... Then, this morning, I woke up at 9am drowsily, looked at the clock, and asked myself : "How come it's not 6.30am?" I then went out of my room and saw my brother playing computer games wearing his pyjamas. I asked him: " Hey Brian, did we go jogging today?" He said: "It rained this morning, so we did not have to go!" I almost shouted with joy (No, that's a little bit too exaggerating..) But I was really happy that we did not have to jogging for at least a day...

Hi. I just came back from my trip back to my father's hometown in Ipoh yesterday. And my mum bought a lot of goodies back with her, so you can imagine how filled my mother's car boot is. Anyway, the reason why we went back to Ipoh was because we wanted to send my grandma home. She doesn't quite like it here in KL so we decided to send her back to her home in Ipoh with my 2ND aunty and uncle. I think she prefers to live there than to live in KL (She looks quite happy there). So, besides sending my grandma back home, we also should have some fun, right? So my 2nd aunty and uncle took us to enjoy the delicacies of Ipoh. We tried some delicious food in some restaurants and also tried some hawker food at some mamak stalls. After that, we went to the Ipoh Parade and shopped till we drop. There was a Thai Culture Fair at the Ipoh Parade at that time, so we had a great time buying nice Thai goods at a cheap price (Even the shirt I'm wearing now was from there...). Besides that, there was also a sports complex (I think that's what it's called...) in Ipoh. So we went to play badminton and had a good time swimming with a few friends my brother and I met in Ipoh. On Monday, my father had to go to Penang to settle some things, so we stayed here in Ipoh. Did I tell you that our trip was 5 days 4 nights, from Saturday to Wednesday? Anyway, he was supposed to come back on Wednesday, but he came back a day earlier, on Tuesday. We also brought our laptops there. Although there were no Internet connections there, we still could play some games on the laptop and not bore ourselves to death. I also finally finished my third Percy Jackson book: Percy Jackson and The Titan's Curse. That book was okay, but I want to read the fourth book. I think it's not out yet, so I'll wait. On that Wednesday, I still had piano theory class at night! But I still made it in time back for that class...

Well, that's all I could say about my trip back to Ipoh. Hope you can share with me about your trips during the holidays... And why do I feel like I am writing a composition about 'How I Spent My Holidays'? Oh well... :)
