Here I go again on my ownGoing down the only road I've ever known

I can probably say that everyday, all that I'm thinking about is 'I gotta finish up my assignment, or else my ass is numbered'. Right now, I have around 3 or 4 assignments that need to be done before next week come. And I have about 5 group presentation waiting in line. You can actually say that I'm in a very stinky situation and trust me, you wouldn't want to be in my shoe. Remember around early this year I complained about how tough it is for me that semester? Well guess what? It's TOUGHER this semester. And I bet that next semester would be the same. Impossibru? 

Huuuh. I hate my life.

But hey, no matter what I always look on the bright side. Wait I can't think of a single positive thing right now. :(

Thankfully, besides assignments I have something that can keep me entertained whenever I feel like I needed to take a break. It's this old show called Veronica Mars. Yeah, it is old but I LOVE it! Reminded me of Buffy series a lot (and I also LOVE Buffy TVS btw...) though I must say that in a way both show were totally different in terms of storyline, theme and everything. Check it out guys and I promise you wouldn't regret it! 

What else did I do these past couple of months besides assignments? O yea, I had my birthday and I got the best present ever! Like totally awesome. I get to see Whitesnake live! They are the best rock band of their generation and I'm lucky to have seen them performing live. We had a blast headbanging and stuff. 

And the best part is that I've read Dork Diaries 3! Hehe. (Extorted from my little niece)

Hopes and Fears

You know, I've seen a lot of anime lately since I have too much free times on my hand. One of them is Samurai Champloo and I don't care if you dislike it I do so shut up! This anime was produced and first aired in 2004 until 2005 with the total of 26 episodes by Manglobe, who also famous with producing this other great anime called Ergo Proxy. I can't express how much I love this series. I hope that there will be a sequel some time in the future by Mr Shinichiro, though it's highly unlikely. But if they do have a plan for a sequel, I think that they could make like some kind of reincarnation thingy going on, where our three favorite characters, Mugen, Jin and Fuu would meet in this current universe. It would totally be awesome! I like the idea of really combining the hip-hop element into it. One other thing that I love about Samurai Champloo is the voice actors or the seiyuu, particularly Jin's. His seiyu is this guy name Sato Ginpei, and aside from video games and Samurai Champloo, he didn't do any other voice acting for other anime. Quite a let down actually. His voice is so silky and smooth and I would love to hear it again in other series as well... sigh.

Oh yeah and I have a good news! The results were out earlier today and I passed! Woohoo! So relieved guys, you have no idea! I've been worrying about my finals a lot and I guess in the end, all my hard works are worth it! My thanks goes out to all who have helped me throughout the semester! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

May the 5th Be with You!

Star Wars day was yesterday, but I think that everyday should be a Star Wars day! :)

Hello folks! Yes, it's that time of the year again! Say whaat??

I've finished yet another semester today! Wuhuu!!

And what a lovely feeling it is! 4 months of pure unadulterated holiday fun and goodness! FUN FUN FUN FUN!

O yeah, I am OBSESSED with Kamio Yoko's work as of lately. Yea, she's famous for creating Hana Yori Dango (Boys Over Flowers) manga series, but to be honest, I never really read that one. It's the other works from her that I'm crazy about. Cat Street and Matsuri Special. You have to check these two manga out. Got me hooked to the last chapter in one sitting...

Cat Street

Matsuri Special

There's also a Cat Street live action drama made but I heard it's not so good, so I won't recommend it since I've never watch it myself too. But personally, I always prefer the manga rather than live action. Hehe...

Aaannd I also get myself this wonderful book during the Book Festival last week. I know I'm late but there's a discount so I finally can get my hand on this one. :P

Yeah, I got this version of my Eat, Pray, Love book cover. I love it! Unfortunately, haven't seen the movie yet! How lame am I? 

Lame-o's everywhere!

I don't appreciate jerks. Unfortunately we have plenty of them here in Malaysia. Sometimes, I wish I have a jerk detector/alert gun just so I can avoid running into them. Guys, please, please, please don't think you're so cool that you hit on girls whenever you feel like it, because you're only going to look like a big ass jerk. No, seriously, it's so not cool man, not cool at all. Have some manners will ya! What would you do if someone treats your little sister or someone that's close to you like that? Think twice before you act buddy! And don't even get me started on the leery remarks that some of these jerks say sometimes. Makes me want to kick their butt back to elementary school! When will this foolishness ends? I don't know. But I've had enough! This has got to end.

I'm bummed because I did not (at least I think I didn't) do that well in my finals, as I hoped to. There's like so many killer paper on the same day that I don't know how to start and I just lost my focus... I'm very disappointed with myself. But nevermind that, all that matters to me now is that I survived! Wuhu! Patting myself on the back!

It's the end of the semester already... I'm slightly sad but for the most part, I'm just relieved. Finally, after 6 long months, I can go back home. I missed home so much! There's no way I won't enjoy being home. But my holiday would only last for a month only and that sucks. So, speaking of semester break, me and my (ex) roommate, Diana made a deal which is to lose all this excess adipose tissue as much as we can. My target is between 5 to 10 kg but I don't know about her because this is my idea and I'm not sure whether she's going to follow through with it. But we'll see next year when we meet again. Sadly, we're not going to be roommates anymore next semester as we're changing college again. Huuh... 


But I really hope I could shed some weight this coming month and pray for me guys! I'm gonna need it. >.<"

I don't know why but my tummy huuuuuuhhrrrhhtt soo much right now. Huhu... But anyway, my thoughts comes first so I have to endure this excruciating pain somehow. It was two weeks ago when I last posted something on my blog and I'm suppose to take a break in order to give way to my studies and such. Due to this I don't think I can post anything for awhile. Busy busy busy! Assignments keep piling up on my desk, so got to finish it all before I get into much trouble later. Hence, I'm saying farewell for now (but not forever, don't fret!) and until we meet again my dear readers, and fellow bloggers, Hwyl fawr! (a.k.a bye!) :D

Do you believe in fairy tales? I don't. Well I did but that was a very loooonggg time ago. Maybe because I've outgrown believing anything that's not real. But I do read stories when I was a kid. My father likes to buy story books and I love to read them back then. Most of the story books were from classic children fairy tales such as Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Snow White and many many more. But one thing that I can't seem to understand is that all of the characters are white! There's not much difference among each fairy tales. All of them are white or Caucasian! I'm not trying to sound racist here but I think there's something wrong with that. 

And here is where I want to pick up where I left off. For the past week, I've been watching this documentary on youtube about the arrival of Dajjal or anti-christ, called The Arrivals. And I wanted to share the message that the maker of this documentary trying to relay to its viewers on episode 40. You should watch it yourself as it's too long for me to explain everything. Mainly because I'm lazy, and all of you already knew that...pffftt...Well, watch it! It's not necessary just for Muslims only, but all human race can watch, no matter what religion. It's very informational and might just wake us up from this long dream that seems to never end.

The main message that they wanted to say is that we are made by the Creator in this world, into many people's and tribes so that we can learn about one another... So back to my previous story, I heard someone said

"Assalamualaikum,"

I was really taken aback by this sudden voice. The owner of the voice is an African man, who was walking behind me before the cats greeted me, and he was smiling when he watched me play with the cats. So he asked me,

"What do you call this (points at the cats) in your language?"

Now as you all might know by now, I'm a Sarawakian so, the first thing that came to my mind is the word 'pusak', meaning cat. But thankfully I didn't blabbed it out loud and immediately answered,

“It’s kucing!” and I smiled back at him albeit warily.

And then he said, “We called it _______ (sorry! For the life of me, I can’t remember what he said!) in my language,” before he left. 


It sounded a bit like ‘tupeika’ or something like that, I honestly don’t know. But that was one of the most random, most unexpected situation that has ever occurred in my life, here in upm. And somehow it made me happy to communicate with a race other than my own. I wish I could interact more with foreigners and learn more about their culture. The only problem though is that I’m very timid and wouldn't even speak to my own friends unless they speak to me first! Aiyo!! 

O by the way, my cat, Puteh is still missing! :(

Another shot of my cat... I really missed her so much! T.T

curiosity actually saved the cat!

Finally! The internet is up and running like how it was suppose to be. I've been here for almost 2 months and I'm quite annoyed with the lack of internet all this while. It's especially hard for me to find information and... stuff when I most needed it. But, now I'm truly happy so thanks upm!

So for 2 days straight we've been having exam and I think I'm ready to explode! It's annoying when you have 2 papers on the same day, but complaining won't do any good so the best bet is to study. Yet I'm glad that I've completed 3 exam and only 2 more to come, although I think it's gonna be really hard for me as it's also the month of Ramadan. 

Speaking of Ramadan, it has been day 3 of fasting for Muslims and only 27 more to go until Syawal. I can't wait! Though I'm not going back to Sibu to celebrate Eid with friends and families, instead I will be here with my parents and my brother. It'll be my first time Raya-ing outside of Sarawak. Wonder how it will be...hmmm... I'll report back when that time comes.

Ramadan brings back so many things... memories of the past and also strange situations that sometimes just appeared out of nowhere. Like yesterday. I was going back to my room from the cafe when 3 cute cats greeted me playfully. So I was playing with them when suddenly, a voice from behind saying "Assalamualaikum"...

... Wanna know the rest? I'll update on my next blog post... he he he :D


Need to go to class, NOW! Until then, bye!

Remember the abang that I told you in previous post who works in the cafe where I live? Well, he's back! Last night, I was ordering drinks, again at the same place and wondering just where that abang was. At first I didn't see him , so I was just minding my business and waiting for my drinks. But when it's time to take my receipt, guess who were responsible to hand it to me? Yes, it's that same abang! I kept on waiting for him to give the receipt but he didn't look like he's going to anytime soon. But after a few moments of staring (mostly him staring), he gave it to me.

A friend of mine were also buying drinks form the same stall and after we left, she said to me that the abang asked her about me. He asked where I'm from and whether I'm a chinese or malay. Phew! That was totally unexpected. But the staring part was quite creepy. He just looked at me and holding on to my receipt refusing to give it to me even when I asked about it, until his co-worker finally told him to. But he's cute though! I really don't mind it! he he he!

Hellish week

Currently: finished reading Naruto 505! love it!
Current Location: home!
Current music: You were the only face I'd ever known. I was the light from the lamp on the floor, and only as bright as you wanted me to be

It's Friday! And I love Friday due to many reasons but mainly because of these:

• I ain't got no class today :)
• It's the holiest day of the week.
• I can rest without worrying about waking up extra late.
• It marks the end of a hellish week (before the start of another hellish week?)

So this week was hell for me as I have multiple assignments to finish, and I'm quite sure that next week is going to be exactly the same, except that not only I have to finish my works, we have exams too. Huhu... I don't know if I can survive or not. Hope I'll make it thru' next week in one piece ya!

A couple of unforgettable thing happened early this week. One involved me and this very handsome abang at my cafe and the other involved 3 handsome foreigner students. 

So I was at the cafe to order drinks, and I ordered 'Kopi ais, tapau satu' (one iced coffee, takeaway) to the abang (guy) that's behind the counter. But the abang misheard me and asked me with shocked eyes, "Did you just said 'kopi ais limau??". And I just wanted to laugh out loud by that. But that abang is handsome, so I just smiled and said "kopi ais, bungkus la bang!". Imagine what a certain kopi ais limau (iced lemon coffee) would taste like... I can't.

And yesterday, me and 2 of my friends were at the library, just doing our work  when suddenly, this horrifying effing sound just echoes throughout the whole corner of the library. I think time stopped right at that moment and I looked at my friends to contemplate on what just happened. I didn't dare to turn around (as my back was facing them) to see who dare to fart (very loudly mind you!) in the frickin' library. But I couldn't hold my curiosity and I saw that they were actually 3 foreigner and one of them was responsible for it. They were laughing to each other and quite loud. Luckily everyone (at least I think that it's everyone) pretended like nothing happens and just move on with their life. That was one of the funniest moment in my life!

There are few things that I hate about myself. Like


a. I hate Mondays, but I can wake up very early just fine every frickin' Monday. I just hate that.


b. I hate that I can't seem to be able to receive critics very well. Be it the positive or negative kind.


c. Good intentions? What good intentions?


d. I have commitment issues. What can I say, I have short term memory lost syndrome.


e. I hate that I keep on procrastinating when I know perfectly well that it's really bad for my health and reputation.


f. I have a really hard time to adapt to new situations or new places.


g. I hate that I can't ride a bike (not bicycle but motorcycle).


h. I'm mostly are sweet in nature but at times I can be very evil that you might prolly mistaken me for Vader's apprentice.


i. I like myself. Ok scratch that. I hate that I love my ego so much. 


j. I think I'm weird.


k. I hate that I cannot hate you! waaaaa!!!!!


OK! Enough with these list already. I think this actually works! I feel like a huge burden is finally lifted from my chest. 


Now I can study peacefully!


OK! Time to get back to work and kick some ass! Ho yeah!

Current music: can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars? I could really use a wish right now...

Normally I would never believe in predictions or psychic phenomena, but I have to agree with Paul this time. Spain deserves to win the 2010 World Cup. I really dislike the oranje team after they beat Brazil on that fateful day. The oranje played well, I don't deny that but I've never seen Brazil so broken up and devastated, it just broke my heart. But that was all history and I don't wanna think too much about it. I just hope Spain would win the cup. But even though Paul chooses Spain to be the winner, I'd still say you shouldn't take him seriously. He's just an...octopus. He doesn't even know what football is. And football is about hard work, team spirit, acknowledging each others strength and also respect. 

I've been in Cheras for almost 5 days now, and I'll have to go back to UPM this Sunday. My time online would be limited also so I don't think I can update on a regular basis, but I'll try to update if something awesome comes up.

I missed home already... >.<

Currently... : I just had the biggest bizarrest experience of my life

Current location: luckily, not six feet under...yet

Current music: HELP I'M ALIVE my heart keeps beating like a hammer (thank god for that! hehe)

Today is the last day for class for this semester... I can't believe that it's almost the end of my 1st year as a upm student. I had some good and some bad experience where I just keep the good memories and throw away most of those that were unpleasant. I hope, I could remember my first year for as long as I can. Like what I did yesterday where I had a class trip to Yakult factory in Seremban and it was a very good experience. I get to learn a lot of things too.

So what's with the biggest bizarrest life experience that I'm talking about? Well today we had a physiology class. And I was so excited about it because for the first time, I can go and see the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences. It's true what most of them said... their faculty were very scenic and pretty. It's like we're at a different place altogether...Nice! There were lakes and everything and it's really quiet and peaceful... I would love to stay there...huhu. So after admiring the faculty and all, we were gathered to this one place near the anatomy room...and lo and behold! There were 2 F-ing cadavers in the F-ing room, when I saw through the window. It's like... a shock you know... I've seen a dead body before, but this is completely a different thing. I swear I never swore like how I did when I saw the bodies. Seriously... I was scared shit.

Not long after that the lab assistant instruct us to come in and gave a briefing about what we were about to witness. Many of us leave after she said that she doesn't force us to see the cadavers but I just stand there. Half of me wanted to go, but the other half wanted me to stay and make this as an experience just like what the lab assistant said. So they showed us the cadavers that's been preserved in formalin, which I'm telling you, has quite strong and pungent odor...uugghhh! Some of us opt to touch the bodies since they allowed us to do so, but me and my friend Sare decided not to because I think that seeing the bodies is more than enough and let's just leave the touching part to the medic students...haha.

That's actually not our lesson for today. Our professor urge us to come and see a real dead bodies because there's a big difference between the real and an artificial one. We could see what's inside our body and everything, the small and large intestines, the brains, the liver, kidneys and all. I've never seen a real life body trays before and today I think is the closest thing to a Sara Sidle that I can be, like in CSI... (^_^) But if I were to be given a choice, I never wanted to go there ever again... even the hallways looks eerie and haunted!
