BTR!

Yes i know i have been M-I-A-Ing for a really long time but i am back. If anyone is wondering how my summer went well there's only a word that can explain it all "AWESOME"! South America was definitely an eye opening experience. I love the people there, the culture and the atmosphere. You have probably heard people saying that South America is a dangerous place but i can tell u that it's not. The whole two months i was there was probably the safest time in my life! We went from Peru to Bolivia to Brazil and then to Buenos Aires,Argentina and from that experience i have found the perfect place to live! That's right it's Argentina. I fell in love with Buenos Aires so much that i left my heart there when i left. Planning to get a job there after i graduate. Before leaving South America i got myself a really good gift to remember my trip. I got myself a tattoo that i absolutely love to death. It's a tattoo of a broken heart with a cross and a rose binding it. It's beautiful.

Coming back to england has been good so far as my confident has grown. The trip changed me so much. My personal life fell into pieces just few weeks ago but i am back on track now. I am taking up spanish classes to help my future in Argentina. Will be going to Dublin,Ireland for 5 days for a seminar over the weekend. Hopefully it will do me some good.

Second year in Uni is hell but i am managing it well i guess. Well to be honest i am not on track on my work but i am getting it there. I am just filled with positive thinking leaving the negative flowing out of me.

I know i sound crazy here but i am not. I am perfectly fine. Lol.
Till then.

Bang!

Bang Bang Bang! one down 4 more to go.

Today Marks the start of exams. Just had my social psychology paper and it was okay. I hope my hard work studying for it paid off.! An A maybe?? Hopefully.. & now i have to continue studying for my media studies exam on friday! argghh.

sorry for not blogging in ages. i am always like this. lol. i tend to get lazy after awhile. being lazy is not a good thing and i know i should change my ways. well let's see i am really happy with myself lately. i've been going to the gym like 5 times a week and studying. i havent been clubbing so often. u know when i first came into uni i was like clubbing 4 times a week. god i know! how can i stand it right. but i was doing that for like 5 months in a row. funny thing is i didnt get sick of the music. well i went clubbing on friday. hahaha. well it was like the last night i am going out clubbing till i finish my exams which is like on the 16th of june. me,marcia,nick,matt,francesca and cyndi had a little predrinking session where i got tipsy and we hit the club in town. Vice Versa. i officially love that place. the music is perfect. everytime i go there i always have a good night. but yea got a little bit drunk in the beginning but then i sobered up in the end cause i drank water. haha. came back to sleep and as i was going to bed, the sun was rising up. how awkward is that. well since then i've been studying bit by bit. i am so stressed out but i am more calm now.. i have a paper on wednesday and on friday. u know what? all i am looking forward is my south america trip on the 23rd of june. that is going to be the start of a long long summer. cant wait. clubbing in brazil and shopping in argentina. it's the dream man. i must say this year has been the most exploring year for me. been almost around the world. but i still wanna go to north america. now that i cant wait.! haha.. plus after exams i will be moving into my new house. it's a 3 storey house with 4 bedrooms and obviously the bitch (Me) gets the master bedroom. hhaha.. the lounge area is so huge and it has a flatscreen tv!!!!!!!!!!!!! woohoo. i might be considering in getting a xbox360 or ps3 or wii!!!!! the kitchen is massive and it has a dish washer and a washing machine. awesome man. and the garden is quite big. this means lotsa house partyy... u know how i kick it yea. so yea interesting things to look forward too..=)

Dinner Party,Shisha,Poker & Clubbing

so u know i got a shisha set right? well this day wasnt the first day that i used it.. i used it like 5 times. but this time my friends and i decided to have a poker match plus shisha. i cooked dinner for everyone and it was a really good meal. we were having roast chicken and sipping on red wine. then after dinner we played poker outside the garden and drank beer..=) at first i was winning and i was so happy but u know what they say, do not celebrate when u are winning. so yes u are right! i was the first one to lose! argghhhh.. we basically played poker from 8 till 12.30pm haha. and while playing poker we were having shisha all the way. man i tell u it was damn good.. smoking the shisha made some of us a bit high. lol..the amazing thing is that we were playing poker in the garden with candles around. there were no light at all. it was so dark and i swear i could go blind anytime if i continued playing the whole night. anyhow after drinking, we decided to hit the clubs at 1am man i tell u we were just drinking,laughing,joking,dancing and enjoying myself. we ended up going back around 3am and instead of taking a cab home we walked home in the cold! haha. this was truly a fantastic night that i will never forget. definitely going to have a re-RUN of this night.=)

Egypt Trip!

hmm well i know gloria is waiting so long for this post and finally i am here writing about it. lol sorry about the wait. well havent been blogging for awhile due to personal issues. but i am okay now. lol. well egypt is basically my one and only dream place that i ever wanna go to for a very long time. everything about it is just mysterious and beautiful.

my mum,dad and i decided to go there over my easter holiday period for 6 days. i know it's only a short time but boy i have to tell u it was the most amazing 6 days of my life!. first i went to meet my parents in heathrow airport on the 2nd of april. it was really good seeing them again. lol. we had lunch at the airport and did a little bit of catching up. after that, we took the 5 something flight to cairo. well it was supposed to fly off at 5 something but no we had a delay! a delay for freaking 2 hours. they kept us on the plane for 2 hours! i was furious. well basically it was because thaqt this airplane brought in a passenger with a suspicious bag and that led to a security matter. the police had to come to the airport to check the bag and the plane to make sure it was save to take off. we only took off at around 7 after the matter was cleared up. argghhh. we arrived cairo around 1 something in the morning and from then we met up with our driver and he took us straight to the hotel. i slept like a baby that night.

we only spent a day in cairo but within a day we saw a lot of things. the 3 amazing pyramids and the spinx. i tell u this was amazingly fantastic. the structure of the pyramids were still intact after all these years and i am talking about thousands and thousands of years ago. we got adducted by camel men in the pyramid area. lol. well this is very interesting. these camel men are like male gypsies. lol so this is what happened. basically i was taking pictures of the freaking camels and these men just came up to me and told me to get on the camel and to take a pic. they practically forced me to go on it and they took my parents as well.. then they took a photo of us and ask us for money!!!!!!! argghhh.. well i gave them 10 dollars but they wanted more.. they ask my dad for 1000 dollars and my dad got so mad and argued with them. they however got scared and returned the money.. lol. how funny. well we then went to the market and stuff and god i tell u NEVER EAT THERE!. i mean the area is okay but the food outlets were all open air and it's like the kopitiam in malaysia but worse and there are cats around.. argghh.. i hate cats. basically i didnt eat properly and i was so hungry so i felt really ill like vomiting. u cant buy anything in cairo cause these people jsut charge so high and even though u bargain it's still quite expensive and they will like draw u into their store and they will make u buy something. after the market we took a sleeping train to aswan to catch a 4 day,3 night cruise in the river nile, this cruise is phenomenal! i am telling u if u ever visit egypt the cruise is a MUST DO THING. was living in luxury for 4 days and it felt good. we had tours to temples while sailing and we had like parties on board. it's really fantastic. i met so much people all around the world. i met 1 from australia,1 from new zealand,1 from argentina and much more people. they are really fantastic. although i felt really sad to say goodbye to them when the cruise was over. after the 4 days, we toured around luxor for a couple of hours and then headed back to cairo for a night. i had the best shisha ever in egypt! and when i came back to england i bought my own shisha set! yay!

egypt is one of my dream place ever in my entire life and i am really thankful to get this opportunity to go there. then next place i wanna go is NY,LA,Miami,California and more. basically AMERICA! yup i love america! cant wait to go to south america this june for 55 days with my best friend! it will be truly amazing.=)


PS: most of the photos are on my facebook. so feel free to have a look at it.

Emotionless

something dramatic happened today. well not that dramatic for me. it was more dramatic towards my friends. it was really sad to see someone close to my friends go back to her hometown for good. well it was not her decision to go back home but it was more like forced to. standing there looking at them biding farewell and seeing all the emotions pouring out made me think whether i have the emotion inside to do that. i know this girl. i mean obviously she hasnt made a huge impact in my life but it still made me think whether i am man with a heart. i dont know. it just makes me wonder. sometimes i feel that i am a man without a heart. without any feeling inside. enough said.

Looking back into the past!

well woke up today as usual to another ordinary day. what's different with it was Me,Sam & Gloria had a group chat on msn! we were chatting about the days when we used to hang out together in Gurney Plaza, group studying for spm in the church and panicking at the same time. oh man i misss those days and i miss talking and hanging out with u guys so much. wish i could wind back the clock to those days. those days when we had sleepover party in sam's house with ramsey,edwina,jonathan tan, marilyn and more. ohh i wonder and hope they are all alright. would really like to get together again. remember those times with the water balloon fight and the horror movies? lol.. it's still fresh in my mind.! well then me and sam didnt talk to each other for about 2 years because of a stupid fight and we got back together in the "persons are gift" camp. man i swear that was the happiest day of my life! sam do u remember that time? for gloria, i met her in sue zanne's sleepover partttyyyy.. and what do u know, that's when me,sam and gloria hung out together all the time. haha.. remembered the time when we used to go to gloria's play and mess around with her lights. lol.. this post is for u guys. i hope all the memories of us are still fresh in your mind. it is for me=) well i'm so glad to talk to u guys once again. good times

Best Friends Forever is a definite! Love u guys a lot. cant wait to get back and spend time together.!

Ps: i remembered the time when i came back from UK and i went down to kl and stayed over in sam's place with gloria and we all had 15 shots of bacardi apple! that's when gloria started playing checkers on her imaginary board! hahaha. remember ?

Changes

As part of growing up we experience changes in our lives. changes in our attitude, personality, looks, height and even the way we look at the world. as a kid i never really cared about a single thing on what is going on around the world. i'm sure most of us didnt cause at that time we were probably playful and busy making new friends in kindergarden and school. the most important thing then was having fun and living a wonderful life. who knows what was going on in the world then? who even cared? as a kid i gotta admit that i had the most amazing childhood ever. playing on the streets, running around, hurting myself while playing. it was the best experienced ever and being the cheeky one in school and always causing trouble was essential.


When i got a little bit older, i started to see the world in a different perspective. the things that i didnt careless seems to be a major issue. racism, disputes between two countries, economic problems were among the things that i blanked out almost 18 years of my life. now i see the world as a very cold place and environment to live in. it's like being in a place full of sin and temptation. the world used to seems as a place of peace and harmony but i guess it all changes as u grow older? being in this position now, people often feel that they should strive better in life. for example, being fitter, being stronger, being richer, being committed. we spend most of our money on self improvement books just so we can make changes in life. here's reality, u can learn various things from a book but to input the things that we learn into our life it's a different story. nothing is that easy in life. we will continue to learn and learn. life is a learning process. there's never a point when u stop and say: " enough! i am fully educated. i've succeeded." the minute u stop to learn is the minute your heart stops beating. That's when u know u've learn enough. life is a journey. a horrific and disturbing journey. u never know what is going to happen to u next. well u would know unless u are some god or something who can predict the future.

changes i see. changes i feel. changes i bare. as my journey continues, i keep most of it in my memory. memories when i was a child, a teenager in high school. sometimes i stop and think oh how i wish i am able to rewind and be in that moment i treasure the most once again. but i guess it never happens in reality.

this sentence i read in a magazine actually means something. i dont know about u but it does to me.

"the road to being a better man is long and hard and lashed with many stones, and we all walk it alone".

so take a break from your busy schedule and think about the changes u went through in your life.

Baby I'm You

Here we go again. back to square one. back to being stuck in a box. well here's something for u. love works in many tremendous ways that sometimes we just are blinded by it or we just pass it without realizing. when love is found, it's honestly the most beautiful thing that u could ever experience in life. nothing makes me smile more than seeing two devoted couples being together and having fun. these couples finish each other's sentence and know what each individual is thinking. doesnt this make u smile when u see couples like this around? sometimes u must admit that you are jealous. cause i do get jealous too sometimes. do u believe that love is blind? do u believe in love at first sight? i believe in all those but nothing seems to be happening at the moment. sometimes we get caught up in a one sided love affair. as i was watching "the holiday", a couple of lines caught my attention. the cruelest kind of love is unrequited love. we are the walking wounded. the advantage of a handicap parking lot. dont u think it's true? oh well enough said. just think, if u do good u expect to get something good in return right? whatever happen to that?

20th of Feb

well let's start off with last night! i went to Stupid Tuesday in the union! it was really good.. stayed till around 1am and stuff.. sarah and tina were extremely funny in a sense that they had too much to drink. haha.. well it was quite a good night. had to come home early because i had work in the morning. but u know what? when i came back this after Stupid Tuesday i couldnt fall asleep!!!!!!! i fell asleep at 6am only and i couldnt wake up for my morning work shift! in the end i had to go to the afternoon shift. it was good but boring. i just needed to stand outside in the cold and smile at the visitors who came for the open day. easy money haha!

anyway it's my mum's birthday today. talked to my parents on the phone and it was all good.! HAPPY BIRTHDAY MUM! hope u have a great one. and guess what? i am going to spain in 3 weeks! woohoo.. made myself an awesome dinner! lamb and mushroom gravy! yummmmmm

well obviously on i've been doing some thinking. i dont know what's running around in my mind. i guess it was what made me not sleep last night! here's how i put it. what do u do when u find yourself stuck in a box and couldnt get out? ever wonder of that? let me know what u think.. =)

The Journey Continues

okay here's the thing, sorry for not blogging for such a long time. i've been so lazy lately. well i recently decided to blog again because i just want to. haha.. well i went to dublin, ireland over the weekend and stayed in mark's place.. i drank all the guiness i could drink and man i gotta admit i havent drank that much guiness in my entire life before. truly speaking, dublin is a remarkable place to visit. honestly i swear! if u get the chance to go there DO IT! i love it there. i mean the people and all and the accent there is just soothing.. i felt like i found the right place to stay in. when i was there i managed to do another thing that is a must do in my life and that is to go to a gospel church! that's right! a gospel singing church like what u see on "sister act" the movie. it was ABSOLUTELY brilliant and moreover it's a catholic gospel church. it was one of the best mass i ever been in my entire lifetime. i was blown away by the choir and the singing.. it was truly a mass that i've never been before. so now i'm back in loughborough all freshen up to start my new term and guess what it's freaking amazing! i love it here so far and i am enjoying myself.. i also miss my family in penang but i have to be honest i dont get home sick. does it consider me as a heartless person? hmmm tell me what u think about it. well i will be working tomorrow for the university. helping them in this ucas open day thingy. hey at least i get paid. haha.. dont worry i will keep this blog updated i promise and i will post some photos later. well take care guys i'm off now. see u in a bit.=)
