Turning Point

Life ain't getting any better until yesterday afternoon.

This is how it goes....

Was planning for an outing yesterday with my friends but eventually cancelled due to some unforeseeable circumstances. When I'm on my way to 1 Utama, my mom and dad asked me drive home immediately as they need to settle some stuff !! Initially, I was kinda pissed off with that because this is not the first time and apparently I have to cancel my plan and it does really badly affected my mood.

As I recall back, I was kinda not in luck since the starting of this semester. I wanted to do so many things but obstacles tend to be my closest friend and it will somehow get in my way. So, I've decided to take a breeze walk down town, having the thought of maybe when I'm back in Kampar, my luck will be better, i don't know. By the way, did I mention about the pollutions in KL? Yup, I've forgotten that KL is not a good place for you to take a breeze walk or so. You will eventually end up covered with black smoke or something else that is polluted. Why do i say so? Why not you give it a try and this will be the scenario. When you are in the famous Petaling Street, you saw a very nice building and wanted to take a photo with it. As you're ready for shooting, I bet there will be a Metro bus or whatever bus that will fly by and guess what will happen in your photo? It will generally cover up with dust !! I bet you on that..haha..

Ok, cut the craps. So, what happened was, before the starting of semester, I broke 2 guitar strings (new) and it cost me 30bucks each time i restring my guitar. Next, i spent 45bucks for my guitar pickup but only know that i can actually D.I.Y the same thing with only 4 bucks on the following day. Also, spent 125bucks for my guitar preamp. Then, talent time event, as mentioned in earlier post where things are not going that smooth as well. Yesterday night, almost slipped in toilet. Thesis group member's problem (still no solutions). Started to get involve in some complicated stuff and so.............

UNTIL

Yesterday

.....jeng jeng jeng.....

I met one of my college friends in Jusco Alfa Angle. I wanted to meet her for like 1 year ago? Mainly because i still owe her RM36 bucks !! haha...She is studying in Kampar as well, and same school too, but we just don't have the chance to meet up and so, I don't have the chance to repay back the money to her. I was so shocked that we are able to meet up at there. Finally, I had settled of my debts.

Next, another friend of mine and I went to Pizza Hut for dinner. We ordered quite a few dishes and only realize that we had ordered too much after we sat down for 10 mins. So, i've decided to cancel some foods, and just when i wanted to call the waitress, she approached me and say ''Sorry sir, this *thing* that you had ordered is not available for today". Oh gosh!!

Few hours back, my phone rang again

A: Hi, can I speak to Weng Yew?

Me: Yea, speaking. May I know who is on the line please?

A: I'm calling from Utar and representing the Talent Time Event, and would like to inform you that you've been selected for our performance

Woooohoooo !!! Oh man, I'm in !!! Haha....

Hoping that these kind of good news will continue forever and would never stops !!! XD

When sadness joint with happiness

Since it's a brand new semester for freshmen, almost each and every club and society will be setting up their very own booth located in the school canteen. Few days back, I planned to help my friends out on setting up the booth, decorating and even helping out in recruiting people, but ended up by helping them taking photos during the first day of fund raising and recruitment drive event. If you were to ask me, I do prefer taking photos than sitting down at there !! =)

What attracted me the most is that, there are always some events which are meant for the freshmen, such as Modeling event, Talent Time, etc. Actually, I do have a dream. Hoping that I'm able to team up with my friends and give it a blast with live performances on the stage, and I do really hope that my dream can come true someday in my University life. So, this might be an opportunity for me to realize my dream.

Later, what I've did was that, I took the initiative to call up 1 of my ex-classmates, plus another girl, who is my friend as well, to team up and go for the audition. Initially, things were going as what we've planned, and we made it through the first audition. However, we were asked to prepare a Malay song and perform it during our second audition on the following day. Since time is of the essence, 2 songs were chosen for the second audition. We do not have much time to practice and as what I've expected, I did badly in the second audition.

Nonetheless, God must have shown His mercy and appreciated our hard work for the audition and let us passed through the second audition !! ^_____^ We were asked to get our songs prepared and attend the rehearsal on coming Thursday.

4.26pm

tee-tit !! tee-tit !!

* my phone rang *

'' Hey Weng Yew, sry cuz i think i can't join u guys for the talent time event ''

I presumed you are able to guess how was my feeling at the moment when i receive this message. So, should I be happy that I've made it through the audition? Or should I be sad because I might be disqualified from performing in the event? Getting to know the feeling of your dream is breaking is not getting any better in any ways. Anyhow, I won't put the blame on my friend as she might really has her own reason for not joining us. Together, we've been through the audition, thanks for your effort and commitment in anyway and i really do appreciates it.

Tomorrow, or should I say later, the committees will be calling me up to confirm my attendance and the songs that I wanted to perform during that event. Really hoping that God will grant me another chance, which allowing me to perform live on stage with my friend. God Bless Me !!

Oh, and by the way, before I end my blogging, another thing that really made my day was, my friend's car stuck in the mud! I don't understand how she can get her car stuck in that pretty obvious large area of mud and........just.......hahahahaha !! Initially, we tried our best to free the car out of the mud but we failed. Thanks to the savior !! - UTAR's Guard (who usually annoyed me the most), brought a piece of wood and saved the day!! Not to mention that, 5 'lucky' fellas were standing right in front of the car, trying hard to push the car out of the mud area whilst the guard was trying to get the car out of the mud area too. Finally, the car is free, and we were awarded a very special mud facial + full body treatment, the best part is, it is FOC !!

No choice and we gotta clean ourselves up, and so, it was the first time we walked into the school BARE FOOT, with mud all over our shirts and jeans, plus WITHOUT wearing our Student ID when entering the school compound!! I bet you can never do that in your life when entering a University !! HAHAHAHA XD

Few hours later, I'll be back into the city, my Home. HOME SWEET HOME !!

Miss my mom, my dad, and my dearest bro a lot !! Gonna see them in few hours later ^_^

最后一次的回忆

很多人。。往往只记得

他或她的第一次

比方说

第一次出国。。第一次谈恋爱

第一次的初吻。。第一次的失恋

和很多第一次的东西

可是。。老实说

有多少个人。。可以记得他或她的最后一次呢？

原本早上起来的心情是蛮不错的

甚至到了学校。。和朋友上课。。聊聊天之类的

也非常开心

可是。。过后因为某一些事情。。

导致我想起了一件事。。也就是我的 ‘最后一次’

是否还记得。。最后一次

你们何时和家人拍过全家福吗？

还记得最后一次你犯的是什么错吗？

可能很多事发生后

就是因为不记得那最后的一次

人。。就不停的再犯错

也因为犯了错

就会招来挨骂或不堪设想的后果

其实。。我也不例外

同样的。。我也不记得我的最后一次

和家人的合照。。真的少之又少

也不记得最后一次犯的是什么错

也忘了最后一次是何时给人骂了一顿

也许。。这也是人生的道理之一吧

不过还好。。人会将不好的东西改掉

所以我会开始记得我的 ‘最后一次’

那。。就不会在犯同一个错了

Friends - Ipoh

It's my final year 1st sem now, and to be frank, I'm quite happy now because I can meet up with all my classmates again, that's the best part too !! There was once, i told someone that without friends, I'm totally good, I'm totally fine. Apparently, as days passed by, I realize that I'm wrong about that. Actually, I kinda agree and realize about the fact quite some time ago, and yet, still standing strong with my point of view (pride prob =___=). Ok, I'm definitely gonna take back what I've said previously, guess i can't live without my family, my babies, and - Friends.

Just back from Ipoh not long ago mainly to settle some personal stuff. Not forgetting to mention that we went for a movie namely Tiger Woohoo !! or famously known as 大日子. I would say it is a very good movie and highly recommended by ME..haha.. Trust me, but if only you are a Malaysian, or else, u won't be able to understand most of the jokes that made by all the actors and actress, which i think this might be the major drawback of the entire movie. Nonetheless, the overall plot of the movie is fantastic, and i would say if i have the chance to watch this movie again, I will definitely going for it without hesitation!!

Although the movie is quite nice, yet, i still don't get it when someone felt asleep during the movie was rolling on the big screen..hahaha..how can she sleeps just like that whilst the sound system was so loud and everyone was like laughing till gone crazy..was really wondering at that moment..how can she able to mute all the sound around her..haha..

Oh yea, by the way, during our way to Ipoh, one of my friends, Allen brought us to a famous biscuit making shop to buy some of these biscuits.

At first, I thought it will be a fully air-cond with some French like windows with some beautiful decos in that shop. Apparently, as we arrived, it's just a normal wooden house and nothing special about that house, neither the appearances of the house, nor crowds inside the house.

Last but not least, I wanna specially thanks 2 of the girls that appeared in my life. Although we rarely able to communicate well among each other, (which i mean talk normally as a human being), yet, they really made my day !! haha...they are maggie and hui mei. Not to mention my gang that cares bout me, Allen, Vince, Yoong Choy, Ah Choi, Ah Ken, the little boy - Ah John, Ah Siong..Oh man...you guys rocks !! I love FE2 man !!

End Of Sem Break

Normally, from what i have analysed, a normal college or university student's life will be the happiest after the final examination day. Generally, a day before the final exam, they will restrict themselves from thinking of what to be done after the exam. Apparently, this might be one of the factors that caused the last paper's result to be unsatisfied.

Nonetheless, this might not much be a concern for students because it will be their big day after the finals. So, for movie goers will definitely going for movies, party goers will be going for club, pubs, discos, and bistros, shopaholic will be going for window shopping or end up buying a lot of stuff.

For me, I'm actually a movie goers..haha..so really did went for quite a number of movies during the whole semester break. Initial planning on going up to Genting was cancelled due to some unforeseeable circumstances. End up, staying at home and doing nothing for almost 2 weeks.

Did i mention that students tend to get bored after two weeks of holidays? haha..yup..that's true (at least for me). When you have done all the things that you had planned earlier, you will be staying at home by either staring at your TV or laptop / computers. Luckily, I still having my babies with me..haha..which lessen my boredom for the rest of the holidays.

But these few days, I was busy on studying an electronic device namely, Piezo. This is a new thing for me and thanks god, i found it !! haha.. But why would i say so? Ok, it is mainly because I wanna get my guitar installed with pickup and a normal quality pickup with preamp will cost me for AT LEAST 400 over bucks. So i wouldn't wanna put a hole in my wallet and decided to D.I.Y a own pickup for my baby. So, this is the thingy...

Picture taken from

http://www.megalithia.com/sounds/tech/piezo/index.html

Yeap..it just looks like a miniature disc, but do not look down on it. As the saying goes, do not judge the book by its cover..haha..yea, it's true..this small thing can actually be the main component of transmuting sound frequency. So, it may used for mic, transducer, and so on. So how it works? In layman term, it will absorb the vibration of whatever that keep in contact with it and converts these vibration into electric signals !! Wonderful isn't ?! Haha..So, what I've did is actually connect this Piezo thing with a 1/4" Female jack head so that it can directly plug-in with a 1/4" male jack. It's way simple and guess what, manufacturers out there are selling these things for 200 over bucks but i created it with less than 20bucks.

Indoor 'workshop'

Nonetheless, i did not use the D.I.Y pickup on my baby because it has a very sensitive feedback although if sounds way better than the pickup i bought for 45bucks..haha..So, this is what keeping me from staring at the laptop and tv for few days, and that's a good thing.

So, just finished packing my stuff and tomorrow will be going back to Kampar. Yup, it's my final year. Although it is already 16 days after new year, but for me, i still treat 18th of Jan a new year for me. This is because this is my final year, and hoping everything will go extremely smooth and fine this year. Actually, I've counted the CGPA for my result. I notice that no matter how good am I, i still unable to get above 3.0. Once, my brother urged me so much on getting above 3.0 and i really hope i can do so, but I think can't achieve it anymore. At first was a bit de-motivated, but after thinking thoroughly in the toilet while bathing (humans tend to do much of their thinking in toilet), I've found my resolve, I'm gonna do my very best in each examinations in this coming year. So, if you were to ask me, what's my new year resolution? My answer will be study hard for sure..haha..yup..no joke here..

Haha..seems like I've written quite a long post here, I think i gotta go rest soon because will be driving to back to Kampar tomorrow..That's all for now...good night and sweet dreams everybody !!

Deliciousness.......

Initially was planning to celebrate Lilian's Big Day in the famous Fullhouse. Unfortunately, the Fullhouse is fulled house. So, no choice and we gotta make a move to somewhere else. Eventually, Delicious is the place that we went for. Below are some pictures to share with..

---------- END ----------

B.B.Q Plaza in Times Square

Too bored to sit at house...so went out to Times Square for movies with Lilian, Ah Kheng, and FM. Watched Avatar and Chipmunks, and later we went to B.B.Q Plaza located near the cinema for our dinner.

Initially, this is what we had ordered.

Actually,the main purpose is that, I wanted to highlight some interesting scene over here.

Lilian: Do you have watermelon juice with ice?

Waitress: Erm, we don't have that, all we have is Ice Blended Watermelon

Lilian: I don't want da Ice blended, i just want some ice on it

Waitress: We don't have that.

She caught my attention when she answer that. So, i said,

Me: She means, she wants a watermelon juice with ice

Waitress: Sorry, we don't have watermelon juice with ice..

Me: Can you like blend the watermelon, so when u get the juice, put some ice on it?

Waitress: Sorry, we only have watermelon juice without ice, or do u mean ice blended watermelon?

All of us : ...................................................

So at last, we ordered a watermelon without ice, and later ask for a cup of ice and added in ourself.

---------- Oh gosh, what's wrong with this girl !! ----------

心情。。

近来这几天， 我发现我好像越来越不了解自己了。。

甚至连自己在想什麽。。也不知道。。

自从从槟城回来以后。。不知不觉的那一晚。。

竟然想起了你。。想起了我们一起度过的日子。。

也突然发现到。。当身边没有了朋友。。一个人的时候。。

不知不觉的就会想起了你。。

究竟。。为什么？

爱情是什么？ 什么是爱？ 如何才知道？

活了21年。。依然不知道。。也搞不清楚它是什么。。

想起了你。。到底是为什么？

习惯了吗？ 习惯你在身边了吗？还是害怕寂寞？

可是。。也不对。。寂寞的话。。

也因该不会那样

也曾经说好了。。就这样。。这样就好。。

刚开始的时候。。真的一切都不理了。。

可是。。久而久之。。又开始默默的关心你的状况。。

每一次打开电脑。。都会忍不住。。去了那个网页。。

结果。。知道了。。也了解了。。

看到你说即将会有新的恋情。。

不知哪来的感觉。。

那种酸痛。。真的不好受。。

不过。。也算了吧。。

结束。。或许真的对大家都有好处。。

不舍的感觉。。的确是有。。

可是。。下一个。。真的可能会更好。。

不。。。一定会更好。。

今天。。我怎个头脑好像播音器那样。。

一直重复着你写的那句话。。

天啊。。我快疯了啦。。

若我能控制我的头脑。。

那该多好。。

今天也知道了。。

原来。。这么久以来。。

他。。一直都在。。

看来。。真的得祝福你不可了。。

说真的。。今后的日子。。

真的不知如何面对你。。

因为。。现在连自己在想什么也不知道。。

也许。。真的到了哪一天。。

我承受不住的时候。。

那。。就只好。。

BBQ Night

It's New Year's Eve today. Initial plan was just having lunch in Pavilion with these bunch of people, which are all my ex-colleagues in Maybank.

Since all of us have nothing to do at night, we went for BBQ at Lily's house.

So, once again, this is up..

Did the countdown together with them as well

Leaving all the sadness behind 2009 and hoping for the best in 2010.

Happy New Year 2010 !!
