I Still Love Y2M37

30.1.2009

A really happy and meaningful day. We managed to get almost all of former college friends for a day out.
It was really good to see everyone again, reminded me of the good old college days (unlike Kampar...Hmmph!)
Although, it was a disaster at first. Shin Young and Fu Shen (back from Genting)plus his gf arrived first and bought tickets (for them plus me and Ting Wei) without letting others knew first.
But you know what? There was a miracle. When Shu Ling & others arrived, they bought the same show and same screentime! What a coincidence, thank God Hallelujah! ^^

First about the movie, um, I don't know what it's called actually LOL, I just remember that the girl in the movie was really cute, and Lous Khoo...wow, really cool!
It was a comedy movie, I thought it was so so, not so funny, but the girls were laughing really loud (siao cha bo's), hahaha. Good for them la!

After that, we went to find Andrew, the guy who is now studying in Australia. Walao...so envy lo!
We had a good time taking photos too (gonna steal the pics from somebody's account liao :D)

It got late soon after, and under Andrew's recommendation, we went to Andrew's cousin shop for dinner. It's called Annebella (sp?)'s Place. Nice name huh?
Let's see, it is a europe style restaurant, and the food choices are rather limited.
Most of us ordered Fish % Chips, me too, and I also ordered an Osmanthus Tea Set



Looks nice right?

It was my first flower tea. And I'm happy to say that I enjoyed it. Very sweet scent, and 'tasty' to drink.
Sorry, it's not really my strong point to describe a flower tea anyway :D
Back to the food, I really have to say that it took around half an hour plus to have our Fish & Chips served. To quote my friend (or rather, myself), "damn long lo!!!"
But the food was really nice la, tasty fish, not much mixing with flour.
To compensate with our patience waiting, the tauke treated us 1 chocalate cheese cake and 1 chocolate cake, and we all gained weight as a result :P

After we finished our dinner, it was already 10pm. So...that was it. We all had to say goodbyes and parted ways. It was rather sad...it was like yesterday that we were studying in one class, Y2M37. Well, time doesn't wait, we all need to grow up...so, Good Bye then!

Someday, I really hope we can do a gathering again. Annually perhaps...well, Y2M37 Forever!



You guys are the best!

Happy Chinese New Year!



Yeap, I should have posted this few days ago...guess I was lazy ^^

After 3 weeks of imprisonment in Kampar, I finally could go home. Just wow, when I reached home, everything looked so new and yet familiar. I missed my room, the living room, bathroom, and heck, even toilet!!! Penang is still the best!

Anyway, this year's CNY was rather boring. My cousins couldn't come here cause they need to visit another side of their family (busy people), and economy not good, felt that the ang paos not so many. Speaking of them, I still haven't open them yet

My 1 week holiday is near the end, and I have to go back to Kampar this saturday...I so hate them...I really love Penang...sigh

Well..let's enjoy the last day here!

Small Update

Well, there goes my first week at Kampar. Rather boring if you ask me, and damn hot too. But I think I will get really busy once the classes start

In fact, after back from sch (and 2 tutorial classes) today, I already feel stressed. The course seems really tough too.
Unable to resit if a subject fails, need repeat the whole subject....
Just wow....and I still have 2 subjects not exempted from year 1....
Maybe, just maybe I can only finish the course with one more extra semester.
But I certainly hope that won't have to.

Need to study hard...and I hope I can do it

2008 In Retrospect (Part 1)

Well, it was certainly a very interesting year. A lot of things happened, lot of things done, lot of things left unresolved. It’s difficult to slowly think about all that I had done in the past year, so I think I will write down those that I remember, for now

2008, my diploma for accounting studies was slowly approaching its end. Naturally, people only realize something is important to them they are going to lose them. That was happening to me. I never really liked Y2M37, I never really liked my classmates. And of course, wasted time playing cyber cafĂ© instead of studying, and didn’t try to get to know other friends. My studies was going to end in May. And as we entered the second semester and the third semester of the final year, I slowly realized that I really like the class very much….

It’s like, everyone knew it’s going to end, and suddenly, the class got closer, and some friends who never talked before did in fact talk more (well, at least in my case). We even got the whole class out for a day out, eating steamboat, watching movie. That was a blast. Unfortunately, it was too late, and our diploma years just ended, it felt like it happened in an instant, without anyone notice…

So, flash forward to around April. Finished taking the final exams (surprisingly easy papers, especially for a guy like my standard), and I left the school gate. I knew then, it was the end. It would be very hard (in fact, near impossible) to get everyone back again, and everyone would forget each other soon enough. But still, I couldn’t shake off that feeling of loneliness, emptiness at that time.

Let’s fast forward a few weeks later, and we did our very first class gathering. We went to Batu Feringgi, rented an apartment room to have fun. As expected, we didn’t get anyone to attend…but at least some were coming. It was enjoyable; we had steamboat and movie again. At night, we actually planned to go for clubbing. It was a first for me, so I was pretty curious and frightened at the same time. However, things took a bit turn to the bad, and few of us had a quarrel. Well, that marked a rather bitter taste to our class gathering, but still, at the end, I was happy that we could get together again

And then, there was the convocation…Nice memory. Seeing everyone from school (Even those I didn’t know), and the lecturers/tutors. Wow, bring back all good times at school. And I was really proud when I was handed the cert, I got a CGPA of around 3.0, it was good, but not that good yet. But I was proud of myself, I worked really hard for it. And I knew my dad and mum were really happy, heck, even my grandfather cried when I showed him the pictures of my convocation. The only downside of the convocation was the fact that few of my classmates couldn’t get past few subjects and needed resit, sad that we couldn’t graduate together.

I felt asleep now, guess will continue another time….
