What A Fun Day..Part 2..

Well, it's time for part 2 of this posting. So, right after bowling, we were not sure what to do. We played a little arcade. Then i decided to play snooker with them. Here's what happen...



Yeah..That's me in action...



Not bad cadence..Although very sopan, but can still manage to shoot some balls in...



Giving some tips to her....



Peter on action.. He was very good that day, he scored the highest...



Look at me, very serious...


Well, that's all i can write about that day. I kind of lost the moments that time. I better prepare materials for my next posting. Just an overview, snooker is a good sport. It involves skills and better judgement of the player. Play slowly, and you will get the hang out of it. Ok, remember to try guys, chiiakk.


P/S: Megamall Snooker Center, 1 hour 12 ringgit. Very expensive.....

What A Fun Day..Part 1

Haleew, it's time for another posting. I would like to share my experience i went through with my friends. The day started badly for us actually, because we rented a car, but the car owner woke up late. So, no choice, we went to kuantan using bus. So, after church, we went to megamall. At first, we were quite bored coz dunno where to go, as megamall is quite boring already for us. So, i ask my friend cadence wethere she want to play bowling with me. After much consideration, she agrees. So, we went there, and there were a tournament going on. So, it was quite dissapointed because no shoes for us. Nevermind, we waited for awhile, and another friend peter joined us. Here are few of our moments playing bowling.



Choosing the best ball is essential for your game..



Go cadence, not bad for a first-timer...



Posing after half-way playing...



Here's peter.. Man he's good..



He went for strike just at the first try.. Takpe, takpe...



Final score.. It's a draw with me and peter...



The shoes here were quite nice, still new, so no worries if playing here..




well, that's all from us. See the finger, we are saying get ready for part 2 of our day. Hehehe.. Anyway, cadence was great. I couldn't believe she was very good at this game. And peter is now officially my rival now. hehehe.. Anyways, i'll stop here. Until we meet again, part 2...



Ready for part 2...


P/S: one game is around RM 5.60 during weekends and public holidays. I forgot about weekdays. And shoes rental is around RM 2.00.

Big Bang - Last Farewell (English Translation)



Yes! Big Bang is back! Most definitely, incredible! Hey move!
B to the I to the G (bang bang) about love


I don’t wanna be without you girl, I wish that the last farewell is not near
Just today for the entire day, I don’t wanna be without you girl, my clumsy heart
please hug it and go, I love you I need you girl

[SR] Baby baby baby although it’s a little awkward, we
[DS] baby baby baby are still loving each other
[TY] baby baby baby and even though it’s frightening,
Even though the end can be seen, for me [there’s] only you girl

[Taeyang]
You, who filled me with only pain and treated me cruelly
I, who stroked you soothingly, but then changing again, avoided you
Worry from wondering how we went wrong
Wandering inside a problem that has no answer
[G-Dragon]
Even if I am a wanderer lost on a path enclosed inside a maze, I can’t do this at all
Only being able to wait, asking you to come to me in muffled steps girl
Like when we first met, like when this was still new
Like this, like this, like this, like that, like that, like that never leave my side


I don’t wanna be without you girl, I wish that the last farewell is not near
Just today for the entire day, I don’t wanna be without you girl, my clumsy heart
please hug it and go, I love you I need you girl

[SR] Baby baby baby although it’s a little awkward, we
[DS] baby baby baby are still loving each other
[TY] baby baby baby and even though it’s frightening,
Even though the end can be seen, for me [there’s] only you girl

[TOP] (Seungri)
You didn’t contact me after leaving without a single word (Without a single word)
But one day you suddenly appeared (Asking how I was doing)
Are you playing around with me or is this really love
Even in a single day, I get confused twelve more times (about love)

[TOP] (Daesung)
I asked you in return why you would want a toy that you were going to play with only once or twice
The sweet taste for a very short moment, the cotton candy that we melted too easily
(Because it seems like I also won’t be able to block the weary heart anymore) Grab me quickly (Before you leave)


I don’t wanna be without you girl, I wish that the last farewell is not near
Just today for the entire day, I don’t wanna be without you girl, my clumsy heart
please hug it and go, I love you I need you girl

[SR] Baby baby baby although it’s a little awkward, we
[DS] baby baby baby are still loving each other
[TY] baby baby baby and even though it’s frightening,
Even though the end can be seen, for me [there’s] only you girl

[DS] Although I still love you, although you’re so important to me ye
[SR] That nobody can take my place, I know (you know)
[TY] Oh please just hug me quietly


I don’t wanna be without you girl, I wish that the last farewell is not near
Just today for the entire day, I don’t wanna be without you girl, my clumsy heart
please hug it and go, I love you I need you girl

[SR] Baby baby baby although it’s a little awkward, we (although it’s a little awkward)
[DS] baby baby baby are still loving each other (But I love you)
[TY] baby baby baby and even though it’s frightening
Even though the end can be seen, for me [there’s] only you girl

B to the I to the G (bang bang)
Even though the end can be seen, for me [there’s] only you girl (about love)

A Cute Reminder...



This is mashimaro. I won it in a game where you have to hook the stuffed animal out using the mechanical hand. I was quite lucky because i didn't try a lot to win this. (usually i would spent 10 ringgit and yet gain nothing.) Now this cute thing becomes my sleeping partner. Sounds weird, girlish? I don't care. Hehehee. i tried so hard trying to get it, so i can do anything with it. anyway, those who wanted to get their loved ones stuffed animal for a gift, and do not have enough budget to do so, try playing this machine. If you try hard enough, you will get it. Ok, hope luck is in your side.

Ice Lemon Tea..Brings Back Memories..



Hey there, thanks to my friend who helped me buy this can of drink. It's ice lemon tea. It reminds me of my home, since at home we mostly drinks tea compared to other beverages. It also reminds me of the time when i was still in my high school. A lot of memories back then. Anyway, ice lemon tea, sweet and sour, just like our everyday life.

RAKSI..Gladiators Arena..

this week during RAKSI, we were command to built a building or structure by using only papers. I really hate this part, as i'm not that really artistic kind of person. And so, after much thinking, by my fascination of the ancient roman civilization, i decided to built a colloseum. We used up all the resources available. Even though it's very fragile, it stood still. Which is very pleasing to see. So here are some pictures to capture the moments.


This is the structure after it was completed..


That's me, posing with it...


With my group members...

So, that's it, our structure. The roman colliseum. During the presentation for this structure somehow i froze, don't know what to say. Oh well, in the ned it was a jobe well done. Imagine just by using papers a solid structure can be built from scratch. Building this really teaches me that no matter how fragile we are, together we are solid. So, keep that in mind. That's all from me, sayonara.

Boys' Toys..PlayStation Portable

Recently i have acquired myself a psp. I Used my salary money to bought it, just for fun. At first i was skeptical on it's capabilities. After i've been using it for awhile, it really impresses me so much. To be short, psp can act as your internet browser, your media player(wether it's video or audi), and most importantly for your ultimate gaming experience.

My version of psp cost me around RM 850, which is the first genereation of the psp series. It's heavy and very large compare to competing console such as the DS. I bought it at a gaming shop in Ampang Point, because at Low Yatt plaza they did not sell the first generation anymore. The PSP-2000 cost around 1000++. There are also cheaper models but if your thinking of buying one, makes sure it have its software modified so that you can play pirated games, and there is no need to buy the UMD.

So, i will show you some of the fuctions available in my PSP.


This is my psp, that's me taking the pictures...


This is the interface there, you can choose to play music, video and games...


It's playing a music video i installed there. The wide screen provides clearer vision for your viewing pleasure...


The PSP is playing music. You can see the visualization there which you can customize yourself..


The PSP doesn't come with a bag..The bag i bought myself..Very expensive...


Since my PSP was modified, i can play games using only the memory card. It uses Memory Stick PRO Duo..


This is the charger. As you can see, it uses a 5v 2000mA power chords to charge the battery..


This is the box. First generation psp is very rare now, the PSP-2000 has a smaller box, since it is slimmer and lighter...

Ok, i think thats all i can intro about the psp. After using for awhile, i suggest those who wanted all-in-one media player to buy this device. It is very easy to handle and user friendly. Make sure find the best price before deciding to buy one, and make sure to ask a modified edition for your PSP. That's all from me, happy gaming everyone.

Industrial Visit...MTBE

Well, it's been awhile(again..so cliche). I just got the pictures i needed for this posting, so it took me awhile to do it. Well, on the 25th of february 2009, my section organized an industrial visit to MTBE plant in gebeng, adik-beradik to gambang i guess. The purpose was to understand analytical equipment better. Well, i kinda mess up that morning, the bus was suppose to go at 8, and i woke up at 7.55. So, without using complicating maths, u knw i was late, and very late.

Thanks to Souven, he went to my room and actually wake me up. I was half wake up dat time, so if im not mistaken i just change my clothes and go. Opps, u know what it means. So, when i reached there, not everyone was there, which was a let down, because if i knew, at least i could prepare myself better. Oh well, so we waited for the bus, and as usual, it's part of the Malaysian culture, we took off later than expected. Arrghhh!!!!

Well, after about an hour of journey, which i spent mostly on my psp, we reached there. The plant was very big, u can easily mistaken yourself by thinking your in a nuclear plant.(Though i never been to one) So, this is the scene there when we first arrived.



Well, not exactly my picture, but im there. Find me..

So, we were brought to the briefing room, and we waited quite awhile to see because the person handling us was having meetings. So, we walked around, took a few pictures, and see the awards and trophy they kept at the back of the room. To my surprise, our group was not the first group visiting the place. There were other group as well. So, here are few of the moments we went through there.



That's me and Souven, looking at some pictures...



Some of the plates that was diplayed there.

So, when the one handles us arrived, we were given safety briefing through a video presentation. Preparing the video itself took awhile as there were sound difficulties at the sound booth. So, after all speeches were given, we present them a plate as a memoir of the visit. Also, MTBE was kind enough to give us notepad as souvenir to remind us of our visit.


I forgot her name already. My lecturer is exchanging gift with her..


This was the group who did the industrial visit...


This is my group. We're working on our own visit. Hehehe...

Finally, around 10 am, we were brought to the labs. I don't have the pictures within the lab itself as they don't allow cameras and handphones in. What a bummer. So, we went through the labs and observed the analytical equipments inside. There were Gas Chromatography, there were also titration devices inside. The titration conducted here were all automated, so there were no need in using burrette, pippet and etc. We asked a lot of question, but my friend Ah Fatt dared me to ask the chemist there, how much they make per month. Guess what, it's between 5k to 8k, depends on working experience. Hmmm, interesting.

So, as time goes by, we completed our visit and was brought to the cafe. So, we had lunch, which was delicious compared to starbak. In total, it was a great experience for us, future Chemical Engineers. We manage to familiarize with the situation in a chemical plant, and get a early look on what to be expected when we entered industry later on. As we went back, we took a few memorable pictures.


This picture was took in front of the office...


This picture was took at the entrance, while waiting for the bus...

So in the bus they held like some sort of quiz where the winner will get hampers. Guess what, i'm one of the winners. Hehehee...


My hamper given by Mr. Izirwan..


Souven won too..

Overall, i had a great time there. I get a few pictures of what to expect when i graduated from University. One day, i hope i can achieve my dreams to be Plant Manager. But chemist also was a good career. The basic salary was very high. Anyway, this is all from me for this posting. Until next time. Jai jian.


Future Plant Manager...

Meaning Of Life....

Halo, well it's been awhile since my last post, a week i think. Blogging is hard nowadays, since time was not there for me to use. Well, this week has been a week of discovery and reflection towards what my life stands for. I always think, what was it we live for, because i cannot imagine how wonderful life is, but still there are no guarantee target to what this life is for. I experience a lot from people around me to know, there are more than meets the eye for us here on earth.

So, to get started, let us ask ourselves, why do we exist in earth. The tree exists to give oxygen to the earth, the ocean provides habitat for marine animals, the sky, the land, they all have a reason to exist. Why human exist?? This is not a religion question, just it always make me wonder, does we have any reason to be created by God.

As we know, humans are the most perfect beings in God's creation. We were given a thinking mind to think, and act as we want. Why? I can't answer that. But one thing is for sure, we must be thankful that God decided to create us, eventhough we were not as perfect as god wanted. The world we living now is rotting, as a result of human action itself. Human minds are limitless, there are many good people, and many bad people.

Living makes me wonder what that word really means to us. What is our aim in the short period for us in this world. Always we heard we live for a reason. One wonderful thing we were given by God is the ability to socialize. We live in a society, where every person were born in a family. First with our parents, then until the time where we in our own family.

I have a family, like you and me, but sometimes i don't know what it meant to me. I don't miss my home, and it's not normal. But somehow i realize what i did is wrong, why i have become such a person. I should not let guilty takes over. Why? Why? I really can't answer my own question. I'm guilty to my family, you don't deserve this from me.

Next thing in my mind, why do we need to have relationship. I guess that's when our socialize part of human being kicks in. It's very wonderful to think how one human can be attracted to another. People falls in love, people get together, people just live forever. Wow, how wonderful that is. Well, if all goes well, that is. But sometime, things don't go your way. There are obstacles, challenges, and even constraint we can't avoid confronting with. I heard this expression where there are someone out there for us. Is this true, i hope so. But to think there are someone meant for you there, it's like trying to find a needle in a haystack. Best for us is just wait one appears. How long will it be? How long should we wait? Nobody knows for sure. I wonder this a lot, but all i did is breaking hearts along the way. Yet i still desire, but i don't want to break another soul. It's a sin that will haunt me.

So, there are a lot of uncertainty in my part especially. What do i really want with my life. Do i have a reason now? Then what? It's a mystery of life that only time can answer. We live in a highway that leads to a lot of roads, choices in life. Get in the wrong lane, your lost. Best if you find guidance. Guide you to the right lane, you will never be lost again. Make sure we are well prepared for the trip. Fill in your gas tanks. Set your goal, then you will get to where you want.

I'm writing this because i had lost the meaning of being me. I don't know what my life should be. How should i shape it? It won't be soon before later, so i really don't have time on my side. I made a lot of mistakes, to family, to friends, to people that cared for me. Why? Why i need to be like this. I don't know anymore. Let it be? No way. I felt something that i should not felt, it's a mistake i regreted. No more.......

The Ultimate Test Is Test Itself....

It's summer time in ump, the sunshine is back, and the weather is hot. Damn, this is madness. Well, it's test week in ump, and a havoc week it was. Just a night before ElecTech test, i had fever. Wow, i really tought i'm gonna fail that subject. When i study, nothing came in, nothing came out. So i went for the test, i had a hard time. I made mistakes, i admit, but i won't blame my fever, it's just that i'm very lazy to study. Haih...

Next, i'm having thermodynamics. Gradually fever went down, but i had another dilemma. I got movie maker to do!!! Another damn moment... Well, still, i should do the movie maker earlier, so i have not enough time studying it. Well, in the end, i took my thermo test, it was quite ok, but i almost had no enough time answering it.

So, moral of the story, never waste time. Always find time to study, at least a chapter or two. Take care of your health, getting sick during test really sucks. And yes, have enough sleep. You will feel better going to test. Anyway, that's all from me, i want to think what else i want to post next. Chiak...

During Thermodynamics Test...

Dearest....

February has arrived and it still feels like yesterday i was here. What made me survived this long. Finally i realize i had to thank my roomates to make this place such a home. I still remember the first times i saw them, i don't know what to expect from them. Whether i'm going to upset them, or make them hate me. So far, we have been so close to each other, and thank god from them. I would like to take this chance to introduce my roommates to the world. This is the story of Nelton Koo, Steven Tay, and Lee How Cheh. The first guy i notice when i entered my room is this guy:-
His name is Nelton, hail from Melaka. Whats so special about this guy? Well he's jokes makes always catches me. Sometime he can joke out of nowhere. Even i cannot beat him in that. He's quite charming, but he have a lot of problem in expressing his feelings to the girl he like. Takut kena reject katanya. Well, one advice bro, just go for it. You never know what you get, not until you make the move. Don't wait until evrything is too late. Don't hide your feelings too long, you'll hurt yourself. Anyway, he is in FKPPT, i think it stands for Fakulti Kejuruteraan Pembuatan Dan Pengurusan Teknologi. He helped me alot, in terms of studies and non-studies moment. Next up is this guy:-
This guys' name is Lee How Cheh. He Hails from Kuala Lumpur, but don't know which area of KL. He has this good boy image in our room. 24 hours study in room, never go outing, i guess everything he did he do it all in this room. I think he only goes out either for jogging or makan. He's the most handsome (i think so lah...) among us, but still single. Bila tanya why didn't tackle girl, katanya don't want lah, tak ada calon lah. Guess he don't have nafsu yet. Anyway, he helped me a lot in electrical subject. With the efforts he has given in his studies, i'm very sure he can get 4 flat. Nothing is impossible bro. One interesting fact about him, he loves to watch drama, especially chinese drama. So whoever want to share drama with him, can ask for his number or skype from me k. I believe one day, if he finally found the girl that suits him, he'll be a very romantic person. That's my opinion. Oh ya, he is studying in Fakulti Kejuruteraan Elektrik Dan Elektronik. Single and available? Maybe... Next up, is this guy:-
This is Steven Tay, the computer expert in this room. Any program you want to download, you want to format laptop, you want print, come and find him. He can solve for you. He is studying in Fakulti Sains Komputer Dan Kejuruteraan Perisian, computer nerd lah ni. He likes to play mid-challenging games, which he is an expert in. And he loves anime, especially dragonball and yu-gi-oh (like me lah). He is very helpful but sometimes agak kelam-kabut. And i don't like to see him get used by others. So bro, you watch out yourself k. He say he always stress, and keep on mengigau at night. Even when i'm writting this post, he mengigau. He say something in chinese that i cannot comprehend. Anyway, he is a good guy, hard working and love to help others.
So, these are my roomates. What do you think, i think we have a very good relationship, we share things with each other, we understands each other, what else more can i ask for. God had blessed me with them, and i'm glad for ot. I hope your roomate also close to you. They surely help make us feel less miss home, especially when you are form overseas. Anyway, want to share few good moments we shared throughout the 1st sem.
Muka nelton blurr ambik gambar...

Testing my camera with nelton...

....Steven And Nelton....


Pose maut nak kena cium....


Steven: Ngantuk, macam saya...


Bakal model playboy pertama Malaysia....


Eeeeewwww... Comelnya.....

Me and Nelton went outing...

Well, that's all for me to share with you about my roomates. They are nice people, god bless them always. It's time for my psp so i guess i'll leave it until here. Until next posting, agi idup agi ngelaban. Bye bye.
Friends Forever....
