Ave Maria (Duet) - La Corda D'oro Primo Passo

Wednesday was out with the parents. MidValley at first but couldn't find a parking as it was Jcard day or something. Packed like crazy, I tell you. Went to The Curve instead. Lunch at Sakae Sushi. Finally bought new shoes! I wanted Puma but Malaysia is just deprived from the variety of gorgeous sneakers under that brand.

So Nike it was. I think it was the same pair that I spotted in Subang Parade a few months ago. I was super annoyed at the fact that it wasn't there anymore the next time I went to buy it. Lesson here is that, when you like something, buy it. =]

Anyway, banged into Ian Kok and his friends. Hahas. Whats even funnier is that Fiona was at MidValley with her friends that day. I would have banged into her if I was in MidValley. Coincidence huh? =D

Yesterday was breakfast with Fiona and Ian Kok. Dim sum at Sri Petaling. The dim sum isn't the main attraction though and thank god it wasn't because I think the restaurant would have been bankrupt a long time ago if it was. Main attraction was the famous 'kai wo pau' which is the 'loh mai kai' inside the pau. Not my first time eating it though.

Went to Old Town next because Ian wanted to buy a butcher knife to bring back to Aussie. Now, tell me, can you bring knifes into the airplane? I think it wouldn't even pass through the scanner. But owh well, we went for what we call 'aunty shopping'. They bought household stuffs like spoons and sauce plates etc.

Then, went to bought fish. Fiona bought, not us. I was damn jacoon there, mainly due to the fact that I have never bought a fish before and have never tried catching fishes from the aquariums before. Quite interesting. =P

Next was cyber cafe! Seriously. Hahas. Haven't stepped into one ever since my o2jam SAM days! We played Left4Dead. Very addictive. And the cc was super cheap. RM2 for first hour, RM1 for the following subsequent hour. Impossible to find so cheap cyber cafe in Subang.

On the way back to my home, at the Giant traffic light, the sms of my results came. I was smart enough to save the number under Monash results after the 2 shocking sms results for last 2 semesters. I freaked out so badly.

Money & Capital Markets - C 66
AIS & Financial Modelling - C 62
Macroeconomics - P 57
Labor Economics - C 63

Now, please enlighten me. How did this happen? Super shocked for Money & Caps and AIS in a good way. But super shocked for Macro and Labor Econs in a bad way. Especially Macro! I must have done quite badly for the final paper, which in a way I know I didn't excel all too well but I wasn't expecting so low. Atleast a C would be more satisfactory in my opinion. Marker was Alvin Chan, nowonder la right? Tsk tsk.

I don't have any Ds this semester. Shits. I'm not even near getting my HD! Sigh. But anyway, I'm glad I passed everything. I seriously almost fainted when I saw the results. =/

Got to go now. United in training, yo! See you guys there~

Love lots!

Plain White T's - 1,2,3,4

This is post number 555. Totally random. =/

I hereby officially declare that I have no life. Or if I have, its actually called otaku-fied life. All I've been doing is eat, anime, manga, sleep and the same routine over and over again.

No, I'm not going to say that I got fatter already because I didn't..or atleast I think I didn't. I'm just really bored. I don't have anything to blog about, nothing to do.

I even washed my toilet out of boredom! (And also because mum was nagging me about it) But you get my point right??

Its so weird when one second in your life seems so colorful and the next is pure grey. Yes, its so dull that black and white seems too much of a luxury to be used as a metaphor.

Now, tell me, how did that happen? And while you're at it, please also tell me how to jump start my life. Please also mention what spices are needed so that it would be all sparkly and exciting the way it used to be.

Got my long awaited haircut yesterday. No pictures because I'm lazy. But its the same as always, just a lil bit shorter.

Results out on Thursday. My predictions are..

Money & Capital Markets N
Macroeconomcs C
Labor Economics D
Accounting Information System & Financial Modelling P

Lets pray that I'm wrong about failing Mon & Caps because I really want to major in Finance and most importantly, I don't want to spend extra 3k++ for summer or repeat the whole unit!

Love lots.

Ray - Lego Big Morl

I was out the whole day yesterday with a few of my fellow K3 members. Ian Kok, who just came back from Melbourne, fetched me at 12pm, fetched Mandy and then down to OUG to fetch Fiona. Chow Di and Shim Yi, who also just came back from Melbourne, met up with us at Fiona's house as well.


Lunch at Taman Desa hawker stall. After lunch and alot of catching up, we headed to MidValley for movie. Watched Ice Age 3. Funny thing was that, all 6 of us have never watched the first 2 movies before. But it didn't matter. The movie was entertaining. If you want a good laugh, Ice Age 3 would be a suitable choice.

Movie finished around 5.30pm. Bid our goodbyes to Chow Di and Shim Yi before heading to Klang to meet Wee Lim, who also just came back from Melbourne (-.-''). It would be double the fun if they could join us for dinner as well, but they had a farewell party to attend. ='(

Met up with Wee Lim and his girlfriend, May Zhee (author of Vanity Bee and Sweetheart From Hell), at a petrol station near Aeon Jusco. Seafood dinner somewhere in Pandamaran. It was weird at first. We were all so quiet. The restaurant had NO other customers other than us, didn't exactly ease the awkwardness of the silence. (Customers only started coming in around 9pm. And people say that 'Klang residents eat early'. -.-'')

But fortunately, after a short while, conversations were made, jokes were brought up, laughter filled our table. Food was okay, price was okay, but the company was great. May Zhee is a friendly, outgoing girl of my age (19 this year). We have some things in common, like Ronaldo being the first reason for watching football and Macheda!!! =D

I remember viewing her blog once before, a long long time ago. And I really didn't recognize her yesterday. She looked different. =/
After dinner was yum cha session at Bukit Tinggi. More chatting and more laughing.

Its been a long time since I've laughed so much in a day. Group outings are always the best. I guess we all agree that SAM days were the best ever. When you meet up after a long time, conversations never run out, laughter never seem to stop. Thats the difference between people you're comfortable with and people you're not. Its also because all of us have spent a great amount of time fooling around together before and that we are all on the same level, with the approximate same amount of knowledge about stuff going on around us, on the same frequency.

I also found out that I'm not the only one who thinks that ever since I entered Monash, I've got no friends at all! It seems that fellow Monashians of other campuses have the same problem. See, its not me, its Monash.

Mandy is starting Monash Sunway in July! Fiona is fleeing to University of Queensland on February of next year. Tsk tsk. They're planning to visit Brisbane during the next Easter holidays together. I want to go too but I doubt my dad will allow. ='(

Might be meeting up again tomorrow or sometime before they fly off again.

Love lots!

PS : Pictures are abit dark because I haven't actually used my camera enough to find out which features are better and stuff.

PPS : No pictures with Wee Lim and girlfriend. I forgot. =/

PPPS : Charlene and Yean Sia did not come back for the winter holidays. Did hear some stories about them from those who came back from Melbourne, though. =]

366 Nichi - HY

I know I haven't been blogging much lately as theres really nothing new or interesting thats happening these days. But for those who are constantly dropping by my blog, my sincerest apologies. =]


This post is just a plain movie & drama review. Might bore you to death like all my other posts, but the choice is yours, to read or not to read. Here goes.





I have been spending my few days watching the Japanese drama 'Akai Ito' or also known as 'Thread of Destiny'. It came out on the big screen early this year and I have been craving to lay eyes on the movie ever since. Unfortunately, I didn't have the opportunity to do that.

However, to my delight, I found the drama version on MySoju.com. Akai Ito is based on a popular love novel. It is a love story about 2 young teens, Mei and Atsushi, going through many circumstances to be together. It is about fate.

The 11 episode drama's plot developed pretty well. It wasn't too rushed or too slow. Sad at some parts, tearful at some and some parts just made me smile. However, the ending was a tad bit disappointing to me. It was very..sudden.

The 2 songs in the drama are very yummy. 366 nichi (366 days) by HY and Ray by Lego Big Morl. Overall, my ratings are 7.5/10. Nothing beats the super tear-jerking 1 Litre of Tears anyway. I think I want to watch it once more and bawl my eyes out again! =D

I was at Manda's house yesterday and managed to watch 2 movies. One of them being Ip Man. I would never have chosen to watch this movie, Blu Ray and awesome sound system won't change my mind, because I hate the actor. Donnie Yen, ugly fugly. How good will a kung fu movie with ugly actor be? Hahas. Sorry.

But there I was, watching Ip Man with my uncle and aunt and my parents. The only thing I could use as comfort to myself was Blu Ray and awesome sound system. Sigh. But I was proven wrong. As the movie flows, I found myself enjoying it. It is a damn good movie!

And you've got to believe its a good movie when I say it is! I'm not a fan of all these kung fu movies and I don't care that Ip Man was Bruce Lee's sifu, and for me to say its damn good, must mean something explosive, right?

The kung fu was real, the storyline is good, sound system fantastic and theres Japanese speaking Japanese. Hahas. My uncle didn't on the subtitles at first, which means nobody understood what the Japanese were saying, except for me! Somehow, I manage to make out what they were saying. Thank you animes and J-dramas! =]

The movie is based on a true story. Its about the Japanese invasion and how Ip Man used Wing Chun to kick the Japanese general's butt. Hahas. Sad. Overall, 10/10! No joke. Partly due to sound system, Japanese man speaking Japanese and me understanding what they were saying without subtitles. =D

Second movie was Red Cliff 2. This movie is about war, based on the Romance of the 3 Kingdoms or something like that. The era of Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Zhou Yu, Zhu Ge-Liang and all that. I know you have no idea, because I was as blur as you. Try reading the Chinese history if you really want to know.

I watched Red Cliff 1 a few months back. The first part was good. Its more on how they plan their war strategies and tactics. There were sooooooooo many people in the movie and the coordination and everything was amazing.

Since the first part was good, I was expecting alot from the second part. Red Cliff 2, however, disappointed me. It wasn't as good as the first one. Its more on executing the war. So, basically, its fight fight fight fight fight fight, die die die die die die and end of movie. -.-''

But its a war, so I guess theres only fight and die, right? The only good thing is..Takeshi Kaneshiro! *Drools* So cute and good looking. *Drooools* But overall, first part was 9/10, but second part 7/10.

Love lots! =]

Big Bang - Haru Haru

Finally finished my finals on Monday. Macroeconomics was okay. However so, I was very disappointed with how I think I did. Despite spending so much time, it didn't turn out the way I wanted it to. But to pass shouldn't be a problem..I hope. =S

Bro is back in Singapore. I will not miss his PSP! Finished the RPG game I started long ago (finally!) and the other games he has doesn't excite me. Followed my parents to drop him off at Pyramid to take his bus back this morning and then I was at Tropicana City Mall..again. -.-''


Seriously, its a very boring place. Other than food, theres pratically nothing other than a few boutiques and Borders and a few watch shops and of course, the cinema. Zzz.
I ate..at..the..same..place..again. Hahas.

Vietnamese it was. Mum suggested the same place because my dad never had Vietnamese before.
He ate the same thing I ate the other day but his is big. The bowl was pretty huge. =/


As for me, I decided to try something different. Dry instead of soup.

It comes with a bowl of soup sauce. The sauce is a mix of sweet, sour and a tad bit of saltiness. It somehow tasted like salad or the usual popiah without the skin, chilli and sweet sauce. Something light and I think I enjoyed it better than the soup one.

Look! The lorry head same color with my shirt. Hahas. Do you notice anything..different?? I don't think its very obvious here though. Do let me know if you can spot it! =D

Love lots!

Michael Jackson - Heal The World

Michael Jackson, the King of Pop, is dead.

I honestly am not and have not been a fan of his since a kid til now. I don't get why girls love him so much and would cry and all that at his concerts. No idea.

But I salute him for being able to do such wonders. There must be reasons why hes called the King of Pop, but I'm just not one to understand.

I don't like the way he dances or the sound of his voice. I can see many of you glaring at me and cursing me already but its the truth.

He scares me the way Ronald McDonald does. Scary scary, very scary. Whenever I hear his song on the radio, I change the station. Whenever I see him on tv, I change the channel.

The only 2 songs I actually like are 'Heal The World' and 'You Are Not Alone'.

Well, Michael Jackson, may you rest in peace.

P.S : I may not like you but I don't despise you. So, please don't haunt me. Thanks.

Koda Kumi - Faraway

Was at Tropicana City Mall today with mum for lunch.


My first time having Vietnamese food.

Steak and meatball noodles. Very different from the normal noodles. The soup has a pretty strong mixed spices taste. Not bad.


Spring roll, available in fried version too. Not bad as well but nothing extraordinary.

Dessert was fried sweet potato and mung bean with vanilla ice cream. Very yummy! 5 bucks only! But portion abit small. Don't ask me what is mung bean because I have no idea. =]

Overall food was satisfying. Price is okay as well.

Owhh well, random pictures.


Mum bought this chocolate chip mini cupcake which is delicious!!!!! Very addictive. I know it doesn't look all that good but looks can be deceiving and this certainly is the case.


Picture from the other day. I seriously look damn bad. My eyes small enough already, now plus lack of sleep and eyebags, like cannot see my eyes at all. Tsk tsk.


This is from I don't know when. I think early this year or last year. Another picture with super terrible eyebags. Wtf.

P.S : Bad luck bad luck bad luck!! I'm having bad luck these days.. T.T
