Change???

It's Sunday morning. Just having a cup of "Milo" and a few pieces of crackers as my breakfast, simple but full.

I am actually quite nervous for my oral presentation tomorrow. It is an individual work which is my very first time doing this. Used to do two presentations before but they were group projects. So, it was not that bad. But the coming one... *trembling*

Anyway, it just accounts for 5% of my total marks for the English subject. Perhaps, my lecturer is right. "It is not the result or mark you get matters, it is the skills you learn to do presentation which are important." Anyway, I will try my best to complete this task within the given time (10 minutes), appear to be confident, make eye contact with the audience, keep the pace of presenting moderate, etc., hopefully. Not to mention, I am the second one presenting. Wow, how "lucky" I am in getting that number. So, just wish me all the best ya!!!

Back to my title, change? Yeah, lots have changed since I returned from my long holidays. The college life changed to be hectic with tons of assignments and reports, the classmates changed with lots new faces, lecturers changed with new teaching styles... Change, change and change. Some may be positive but others may not.

Noticing some obvious change among the friends here, I just wonder what has happened actually? Well, the word "Emo" has been very popular among us lately. Thanks to Jia Wei to start the scenario. =.=

Guys, cheer!!! I miss the laughters and happy moments we had together. Don't be so down with everything though sometimes I behave like this too. Take it easy. Last night, when I was about to offline and sleep, Zach surprised me by tagging me in a video. His own production with caption "Friends..... this is dedicated to you all... i miss u guys much............". So touched when I was watching that. I miss that too. Change is a must as suggested in the subject Innovation and Change but somehow, I don't like this kind of change.

When the surrounding is not cheerful, the smile on one's face fades.

Whatever, just writing all the mixed feelings. 20 more minutes to go for the badminton session, I just wonder how many will turn out among us...

Out to sport~ And all the best to all presentors starting from tomorrow.

The Return

Reading through my last post which I wrote before going for the two-months holidays, again I realised the phrase "time flies". It is actually the end of my holidays when I am writing this. And ya, I am here in Kuching again.

For the past two months, I am really in the "holidays mood". Staying late in the nights, waking up late in the mornings, surfing the net, gathering with the friends and others were what I was doing. A long break will definitely be boring, so with a long school life. Also, I spent most of the time in my father's shop to give him a hand.

It is enjoyable when we can spend our time with our friends. I met with those I knew in KMP. All smart guys with a pair of spectacles each. They all are having their final examinations soon. Thus, here I wish them all the best in their exams and I know they are going to do it well.

Of course, there were lots of gatherings with those secondary school's friends. I just love every moment with them. Lili, Zyang, Dong, Vin, Chian Chuen, Teng, Alvin... Friends forever!

Next, computer games are addictive. Or should I say it is too much free time. Playing the game daily, it was not that fun but somehow, I felt like doing so. Haha... Dramas, dramas and dramas... TV has been my close friend during that time. I also managed to watch few movies with my friends. Some are good, some are..., you know!

There went my "so-long" holidays! The sad thing was that I was not able to go any trip in any destination. Never mind, I should console myself. It is yet to come.

Tomorrow is a new day for me, the beginning of a new semester and it is the last semester for my foundation. New semester, new subjects, new classmates, new lecturers... The start of something new. And I hope I am going to have a new lifestyle as well.

I should end this. The room needs some cleanings to look new. And I am still waiting for my new roomate. Opps, it is not. Same roomate I will have. Haha.

*The Start of Something New*

Summary of 2009

Yeah, it is over, at least for now.
One semester and a seven-week summer semester for MPW (Mata Pelajaran Wajib).

I survived it!
I am coming back to my hometown, Kedah soon.

16 January 2010 is approaching.


Flashing back the year 2009, I must say that time flies. It flies so fast that now is the year 2010... LOL

Just want to summarise my life in the year 2009. *Chia Yee, don't blame me for the copyright* :p

January

Helping parents in the shop, watching TV shows and going out sometimes with friends or family were all what I did. One more, I started my driving practice. Well, I still can recall how afraid I was when first driving the "Kancil" car.
February
Similarly, I really cannot think of something special to blog here. Oh ya, it was the time to start finding information on the path to be continued after getting the results. Still, it was not a big deal. Time was still wasted. Continued with my practice on driving.
March
Getting my results, I was and am truly thankful to all my techers, friends and family for it. At least, all the efforts were paid off. Here came the biggest decision to make. What should I choose to continue the journey? I was blurred. Blurred, blurred and blurred... I managed to pass the driving test too. Haha... And there went the interview for JPA scholarship whereby my performance wasn't satisfactory. April
Obtaining on an offer to attend an interview for "Skim Biasiswa Kijang Emas 2009", I went for it but failed. Only five positions were available. Focussed on other applications of scholarship... I got an offer to an university in Pahang which I rejected. I made the mind to go KMP (Kolej Matrikulasi Perlis) following the failure of JPA scholarship.
May
Reaching KMP, I met with some good and "crazy" friends. Kind of missing them. Though friendly and funny, they are all very smart. I am going to spend one year here, I thought. But it was not arranged in such way.
Jun
One word to describe the life there: hectic. A lot of things to be taught within a month. Too mch input, I would say and the endless homework as well.
Julai
I was leaving KMP. Who would expect my appeal for JPA scholarship to be successful? It was a hard decision to be made but I made it. Swinburne University of Technology Sarawak Campus (SUTS), I was coming for it.
August
Another new journey in a far-away place for me. Never in my mind that I would be here. Whatever it is, I made the decision and I must follow it. Oh ya, it was my first time travelling by air.
September
Together with the friends met here, we studied, played, "shot", ate etc. Friends are such a great source of fun, aren't they? I appreciate each and every sincere friend I met. Thank you!
October
Started to get used to the life here, missing home on and off... I just continued with my daily rountine: going to class, doing the assignments, watching movies (sometimes)......
November
It was our final examinations for semester one. Study mode was activated. One memorable event was my birthday. They really bought a cake and celebrated with me. Touched...
December
Struggling in the boring lessons in the classes, I just hoped to pass these two subjects as soon as possible. I also had funs during the Christmas. Oh, the last event happened before the year 2010 was a fall in one of the Kuching's street. Argh, I knew I was careless! Forget about it!
There went a year and came a year. Not going to make any new year resolution as I know they hardly work out, I just want to make a wish: Everything will go smoothly in my life in 2010!

Let's
make good use of the year! =]

My Christmas in Kuching

Honestly, I do not celebrate Christmas Day as I am not a Christian. Anyway, I did not waste such a day in Kuching. Together with my friends, I went out for the whole day. XDIt all started during the first second of 25th December. In my room, I was able to see the firecrackers through the windows. It was awesome. Beautifully presented. ^^V Moreover, the firecrackers show was continuous for almost 15 minutes! How much they have spent on this, I wonder. Anyway, I believe everyone enjoyed watching that especially those celebrating it as Christmas is a grand festival for them. Surprisingly, after the scene on firecrackers, I received 3 presents from my roommate, William. Wow, it was not expected. His parents sent the presents through the post. Thanks so much, William and his family. Merry Christmas!!!

Later, I headed to the common lounge to continue watching the movie shown. It was about the zombies... "Shanghai Noon" continued after that. Due to the tiredness, I went to sleep reluctantly. It was already 1.30am.
Consequently, I woke up at about 10am this morning. Hehe... Wasting the time on lining, I realised that it was about 1pm. Time to visit a friend, Zachery's home. A group of us went there by Ah Cheng's and Zach's cars. His house was a wooden house but with 2 Astros. LOL...

"Kampung" life is not bad. The air is refreshing and I was quite surprised to find such a house in Kuching. No offence, Zach. Nonetheless, we were given a warm welcome and served with a variety of delicious food. Yummy! Thanks Zach and his family. The most unique dish is the chicken cooked with wine and tea leaves. Delicious for the Sarawakians but not for the West Malaysians. The taste is a bit weird as we are not get used to it. May be it will take time for us to like it. XD One more, it was durian! First time tasting the local Sarawak durian, I will just say nice!!!I love Zach's cousin. She is very chubby and fat. She can laugh loudly and non-stop. What a child! We then left the house at 5.30pm and went back to the hostel.After an about one hour rest, Wei, Vincent, Boon and I went out again for our dinner. We went to MCJ Batu Kawa as a food and fun fair is held there. It is called the "Fabulous Food 1 Malaysia". Actually, I just knew this through Vincent just now though this fair was started on 1st December. XD

Filling up the stomach, we went walked around the shops there. There are a lot of clothes' shops and I managed to buy a cheap T-shirt. Tired and exhausted, we reached our hostel.

One phrase to conclude today's activities: Simple but quite enjoyable. Again, to those who celebrate Christmas, merry Christmas!

AVATAR

Finishing the mid-term on last Tuesday, we headed to the cinema again by virtue of to relieve the tension on the next day. Wow, how many movies have I watched for the past few months. Whatever, "Avatar" was our choice that day!


A brief synopsis I took from the Internet Movie Database:
The story's protagonist, Jake Sully (Sam Worthington), is a former Marine who was wounded in combat on Earth and paralyzed from the waist down. He is selected to participate in the Avatar program, which will enable him to walk again. Jake travels to Pandora, a lush jungle-covered extraterrestrial moon filled with incredible life forms, some beautiful, many terrifying. Pandora is also home to the Navi, a sentient humanoid race that is physically stronger than humans, although considered primitive. Standing three meters tall, with tails and sparkling blue skin, the Navi live in harmony with their unspoiled world. As humans encroach deeper into Pandora's forests in search of valuable minerals, the Navi unleash formidable warrior abilities to defend their threatened existence. Jake has unwittingly been recruited to become part of this experiment. Since humans are unable to breathe the air on Pandora, they have created genetically-bred human-Navi hybrids known as "Avatars" . The Avatars are living, breathing bodies that are controlled by a human "driver" through a technology that links the driver's mind to the Avatar body. On Pandora, through his Avatar body, Jake can walk . He is sent deep into Pandora's jungles as a scout for the soldiers who will follow, and encounters many of Pandora's beauties and dangers. He also meets a young Navi female, Neytiri, whose beauty is matched only by her ferocity in battle. Over time, Jake integrates himself into Neytiri's clan, and begins to fall in love with her. As a result, Jake finds himself caught between the military-industrial forces of Earth, and the Navi, forcing him to choose sides in an epic battle that will decide the fate of an entire world.


Watching at 10.45pm, we finished it at 1.30am. For the first time, I watched a late movie like this. We reached hostel about 2pm. One word to describe us: tiring. Despite the tiredness, we all felt that Avatar is a great movie. I extremely love the graphics and sound effects. They are well done and produced. I enjoyed watching the picturesque scenery in the new palnet called Pandora. It is magnificent! Applause for the production team!!!


We are all referred as the sky people by the Navi group. These sky people are the ones who invade their motherland in order to exploit a certain resource in their areas. Of course, the Navi tribe does struggle to protect their land. For me, Jake has made the right choice to help the Navi. Well, maybe we as humans should not be so greedy. Just appreciate what we own.


Conclusion: A amazing movie that you should not miss!


Spending Wednesday night on movie, we further enjoyed ourselves on Thursday night. >.<
We really forgot completely about the two hard subjects! The MPW- "Mata Pelajaran Wajib" which my friend will call them "Making People Worried". XD


Going out to dinner with Ah Cheng's car, we then went to his house. Wah, his house is so large and rich! O.O Jun described it as a castle! Haha... Since there was nothing to do, we just played Mahjong while the other two had their eyes on the television. HAIZ... That was not my day! I lost 6 matches consecutively. T.T Luckily we did not bet with money. :p


Reluctantly, we went back to the hostel again. It was a downpour on our journey back to hostel. All of us got so excited and screamed when the car drove past and the water splashed high up. =.=" By the way, thanks Ah Cheng!


Time is getting closer to the final examination as well as the holidays. But a lot of hurdles are needed to be overcome like the assignments, the presentations and the examinations. I dislike each and every of them. With the remaining 3 weeks, I really hope that I can cope well with all these, reduce my time spent to online or facebook and score good results for the two subjects! Hopefully...


Well, it is the end already. Again, go watch Avatar! I'm loving it~
