A close shave

28 Dec 2004 by admin

my last day to be home alone~!! parents will be reaching ipoh at 1345~!!

i felt kinda lazy to go for the badminton game at 10.. but since yee weng called and i told him the day that i’m coming, well, i have to go… reached there at 1030… (which yee weng booked the court from 10 till 12) it was quite exhausting…it’s been quite a while since i last played badminton… brandon, kiat win, wai yip, brian, zhuan keet and mei yin was there too… then, went out for brunch with them in stadium…

by the time i went home, it was about time i had to pick up my parents from the airport.. had another round of lunch with them in gunung rapat… ate chicken rice.. and lots of stories from my dad……

reached home, uploaded pics of australia to the comp.. dind’t really have time to rest… then brandon came to download some games… took my thumbdrive to copy it to his laptop though… after that, i have a basketball game with the same group of ppl.. (similar group actually)

played with kids younger than us.. (some are quite good.. and some are not even half my height. lol..) played for about 1 hour… and it was damn tiring… went home, bath… and slept.. (hardly slept actually) till dinner…

at night, kinda lepakked lar.. rested in my room… played AO with jason and chun (for the first time)…

at 10, had ice creams with shake, von, omega, licia and jason…. chatted all the way till 12… back home.. online… hehe… btw, got stopped by police though… went in thru the other side of east while on the way to yes cafe, and forgot there was a pasar malam there.. so, i went into this road, dind’t realise it was a one way street… then the police stopped me…. the moment i come down… one of the officers ask me to ‘kao tim’ it aka bribery.. he said i’m on P some more and if i get 3 samas, then my license will digantung, i was like, what the hell, this is only my first… so, i won’t give a shit… then i went back to the policeman who took my license.. and he asked me what the officer told me.. haha.. then i said he only gave me a warning.. hahahahaha… then that policeman returned my ic and said “betul ke dia hanya bagi amaran?” hehe… oh well, it was a close shave… went off b4 he had the time to ask the other policeman.. how terrible.. tsk tsk…

About Singapore

26 Dec 2004 by admin

i was woken up by the telephone ringing…. when i glanced at the clock, “SHIT~! it’s 10~!! and i’ve to go to school at 1030″ so, i’ve to rush myself to get ready to school.. Quickly, i watered the plants, made myself breakfast, fed the fish.. dun even have time to sweep the floor… Fortunately, by the time i reached school which was like 1035, they were all still waiting… Waiting for Ravindran to meet up with us… well, he only came at slightly b4 11 and gave the excuse that he’s been waiting for us in the office all these while.. lol..

then, we’re supposed to decide which 3 of us that should be recommeneded by the school for the ASEAN scholarship for NUS.. eventually, the school’s admin did the choosing…

While we were there, bj, yw and i certified our certs… then, we went to koh heng for lunch at 12 plus with boon jin, yee weng, jit-vern and ian..

Went to the bank later after that to bank in the money to ALKT.. brandon came to my house later cause he needed my cable to transfer photos from his camera to his laptop.. then, he fetched me to boon jin’s house to listen to ‘talks’ from his sister on NUS and singapore life.. it was quite thorough… she even prepared beforehand.. haha… after all that she’s said.. seems like local uni sux and singapore is so much better… the only bane is that singapore got a higher cost of living… alot of ppl went for the ‘talk’ though… there’s me, bj, yw, jv, my, el, not to mention brandon.. haha.. he went there to ‘pat’…

realised that by not playing computer.. can do alot of things.. supposedly to play ping pong with yw and bj at 530.. but in the end… i washed the car, clean up the garden a bit, swept and mopped the floor, cleaned the bath tub, fold clothes.. hmm… not to mention cook for myself…

tot wanted to sleep early. but was bugged by my ‘nonsensical thinkings’.. in the end, went online and slept after that…

Christmas 2004

24 Dec 2004 by admin

mERRY ChRIsTmAS~!!

woke up at 9 am (it’s quite early judging that i slept at around 3am) and did some house chores, check my mail and finally, lowyat’s back online~!! need to know bout the MX510 orders… and they’re supposed to COD at midvalley at 8… guess i’ve to pay extra RM10 for poslaju… sigh..

got lots of disruptions though… alot of phone calls… kai ma called all the way from NYC~!! how nice.. they said they’ve been looking for my house number from 8 something till 9 something (their time, which is still eve night over there) talked to them for quite some time.. and it was nice lar..cause it’s been a while since i last communicated with them.. then, called chee lim… chatted with her for quite a while…

later, jit vern came with jin ann to have lunch together.. he came bringing unwrapped presents and all the other accessories to wrap presents.. but we decided to have lunch first before wrapping them.. so, we went to eat in dave’s deli after calling up yee hui in jusco.. he had only one hour lunch break from 2 to 3.. all of us had lasagna while jin ann only had ice lemon tea..

jit vern shopped a while to buy gifts for his dad.. while me, well, i’m suppose to buy soemthing too but i dun haev anything in mind.. perhaps, shall ask my sis cause usually i’ll be sharing presents with her. bumped into jinfei and andrew though in friendly.

went home, wrapped presents, feeling all exhausted.. and they had to go ‘visiting’.. i almopst didn’t want to go cause was feeling too tired…in the end, jin ann and i slept while jit vern drove us to guan sing’s parent’s shop.. handed him his present (which happened to be a shaver..lol) sat there and drink a while and then we went to guan sing’s house. he tried on his new clothes that was bought from jin ann in giordano.. went to dinner with yee hui and chee lim in anika selera.. but we went there late la.. cause jitvern got stopped by police for not stopping at the red light.. luckily he only gave a warning..

so, by the time we went there, cl and yh already finished eating.. and there wasn’t anywhere to sit, so.. they left so that we could sit… ordered some koay teow and we got conned~!! 3 koay teow (si hum and egg) and it costs RM8~!! how to divide??? sighh..

reached chin ping’s house at around 9… and when i went in there.. there was only chee lim, yee hui and chin ping there. i was like where’s everyone?! then i wished chin ping merry xmas.. she didn’t even choi ngo.. aihh.. means something bad must have really happened.. and so happens that kan yee lyn (one of the organisers) ffk cause her frens not coming.. hmm.. duno lar.. seems complciated..

in the end, there were only me,chinzwen and bf, chee lim, yee hui, chin ping, jit vern, jin ann, guan sing, anand, ee lin, wan yoe and sinnyi.. luckily sinnyi and wan yoe went out with chjin ping to buy back some food.. all those ‘chap chap’ stuffs.. hehe… then we had lots to eat.. got satay, wat tan hor, fried mee… then we played cho tai di till everyone goes back at about 1130… by that time.. everyone was like half dead liao…haha… but this christmas.. the first christmas without family.. well, that’s how i spent it with my friends… :)

One more day to Christmas, and i started off my day with AO and is supposed to play with bj and jason till lunch… but anyhow, bj got frust and quitted the game.. and i played on till 3+ while jason was busy and couldn’t play with him.. Around 4 plus, went out with chin zwen and jv. they came to my house earlier actually, but i was too busy with my game..haha.. but after a while, i did join them lar… met them at JJ’s in jusco, went christmas shopping with them in guardian alone~! haha.. so hebat… first time shop presents where all of us buy presents from the same shop… then, chinzwen treated me hot chocolate at delifrance cause she said she’ll do so the next time she goes out with us…

Later, had to get ready to go to elim’s outreach… jitvern stopped by my house and followed me there cause he said it’ll be too waste of time if he went home.. i had to pick up von and shake too.. went to elim, had dinner there at about 730 (which was supposed to start at 7) then their service was at 8 till 10… they had lots of performances there with yian yan, sulyn dancing… liyen acting in a sketch where she was mother mary, cheryl and jinann as ushers…

right after elim, went to our church at 1030 cause the carolling starts at that time.. fetched thean seng back to our church where his mum pick him up from there.. (traffic in east was heavy~!) there wasn’t a place to sit where we used to… so, we went to sit upstairs..

after it was all over, went out with benedict, kelvin and mag… (and the 2 girls too) ben really changed man~! he spiked his hair and he’s not wearing specs annymore… so hard to be recognised..

we met up in mag’s place and kelvin fetched all of us to greentown.. wanted to go to mike’s place to look for gary as he’s working there.. but by the time we went there, he already left.. so, we went to makan at the place next to it.. btw, kelvin stole ppl’s parking space… haha.. tat guy was doing a reverse parking.. and it wasn’t really in a proper place… so, he went out from the parking space to readjust the position… and kelvin just parked right up there inside.. lol… ate abit there, drank some beer… and went home at around 2 plus… supposed to wake up early to attend kar wai’s baptism…

was out practically the whole day… woke up quite late cause been playing AO till 330am.. lol.. barely had time to prepare myself to meet up with my frens in jj at 12.. reached there aronud 1230 though… and we gathered together in coffee bean. siah, kar wai, omega, wai san and von were already there when i reached. chatted abit.. and bought tickets for the phantom of the opera.. 7 tickets altogether.. me, siah, von, omega, wai san, cindy and cheryl.. went to bamboo house for lunch and mei yin ‘visited’ us there.. she looked much prettier though.. suddenly, cindy says that ei leng is joining us for the movie.. in the end, we bought a ticket one row in front of us (and i took that place la)

the show was quite nice.. brings back alot of memories about my sister last time when she was ‘christine’ in her school play.. after the movie, we went back to coffee bean.. and lepaked there till everyone goes back… it was quite late though at that time.. and i had to rush home to cook myself dinner.. then i realised i forgot to buy present for thean seng’s party.. so, i had to walk all the way to the opposite end of jusco to buy smoethign.. and the cashier was being so slooooowww.. sigh… by the time i’ve finished my ‘shopping’, realised it was too late, so i bought dinner for myself.. sigh..

went to thean seng’s house at 930.. and no one was there.. not even thean seng..luckily jit vern fetched me there, otherwise, had to wait alone.. then, kah hon, boon jin, yeewun and amelia came… by 10.. still no sight of thean seng’s friends.. around 1030 like that.. only they came and they had their carolling performance.. haha… it was quite alrite lar… just normal singings… no parts or whatsoever.. but it was ok…

then, we played some guessing name game.. need to follow some cues wan.. if you failed, that person can draw on your face/skin… hehe.. then we had the gift exchanging session where we take gifts randomly.. haha.. i bought this lizard thingy that expands to 600 times its orignal size when it submerges into water.. and a girl called gabriena (aih, steal and modified my name) took it.. haha… then i got 3 used cassette tapes of linkin park from a girl that looks like jac…

overall, the day was quite fun lar… tmr will have a half day AO then off to church… so fast xmas eve… =)
