stroy telling

they say, because i blog so much, writing a story isn't a burden...

seriously??

I blog quite often (not seriously), ranting and crapping and blabbing about my life.... but story telling?

Seriously?

I've not written any story /essay since.....SPM! *counting the years... that was 5 years ago** I've wrote a lot of research reports and lots of journals for assignments, but i've not written a story in ages! and the last time i read a short story was ..... i think 5 years ago... when i was so into chicken soup. NO-lah.. not the Campbell chicken soup lar... the Chicken Soup for the teenage Soul books...

So i need to write a story..... love story? lame... but that's what i am going to write... a love story.. maybe a family love story.... a tragic family love story... okie.. i think that's it...

LOVE + FAMILY + TRAGIC + DRAMA

then after i complete this story writing thingy, me gonna spend some time admiring my "dancing" pictures that my friends help me to take. gonna spend the whole night editing it for my DVD interface assignment. *cries* no sleep tonight again!


here's a glimpse of my dancing pics. i know.. i am chicken dancing here... :P


I didn't want to take these pictures but then... because of assignment, i need to take-lah... no choice lar.. i can't find models.... so have to use my own pic. Thanks to Marli & Sherlyn for being my photographer.... *blush*

ok.. i got to run... need to finish up my tragic family love story!

ps: here is my final design for the DVD interface project

what the horoscope says....

Your positive feelings for a certain someone are increasing by the minute. As chance has it, the positive feelings they have for you are growing just as dramatically! But as you get to know them a bit better, put your heart on ice -- it's your brain that you need to rely on right now, more than anything. Try not to get caught up in your hopes and wishes. Stick to reality and the known-knowns. If you push too hard to spend a lot of time with them, you run the risk of scaring them off.

Sometimes the horoscope reading can be so freaking true!

So i need to use my brains.. not my heart....

A New Dawn for Penang?

i was awake last night till 3am. I was unusually very tired and sleepy. I have no idea why, as 3am is not my usual time for me to go to bed...

Before 3am last night, like many concern Malaysians out there, i was busy checking on the internet and refreshing a few website non-stop to keep myself updated with the voting results. My mom called me around 830 to inform me that BN is down. I did not believe her as it never occurs to me that BN would be defeated. Afterall, they have been ruling Penang for so long... i check the internet news immediately from several website and the longer i spend reading the news, the more excited i was.

Ironically, I never care a single thing about politics and the government til Penang was taken over by the opposition party. Not that i am against the opposition nor the BN, i am just curious about the whole general election thingy as news kept on coming in regarding the downfall of BN in this year's election. Dr Koh Tsu Khoon, Penang's former CM was defeated by the DAP and then more news came in as more and more BN representative is being defeated by DAP, PKR and PAS. SHOCKING! ("they called it Political Tsunami)

It was indeed a new dawn for Penang as the new state government is taking over. I am nor happy nor sad but more to my concern over what is the future of of Penang.... will the new CM, Lim Guan Eng (Lim Kit Siang's son) give Penangites a better place to stay and live in?

I was very happy when one of the candidate which i had super bad encounter with was defeated. BRAVO!

This post is not a post to go against BN nor was it to show my support to the opposition. I am on the neutral side. For that, i hope whoever that is ruling Penang or the whole country, will work hard and wisely to bring more peace and better living environment to the people and serve the people as they had promise in the first place.

No 4

4 could means alot of things to different people in many different ways.

Chinese people normally avoid number '4' as they believe this number is unlucky and symbolizes deadth. try to pronounce that in cantonese, hokkien and mandarin and they are somehow very close to the word "dead". Therefore, chinese people normally avoid getting number such as 4, 4444, 3344, 2424 (sounds like easy to die in cantonese) and many others.

Well to some, it might be a lucky number in some situation.. like... "i pass my driving license test on my 4th attempt" (not on my case. i pass mine on my first attempt although i almost drove up the side walk but this is because the tester was talking so much to me that i was trying so hard to talk and at the same time paying attention to my driving), or "i was at the no 4 seat which was my favourite seat", or "4 is good because i won a lottery on the 4th of April" (joking).

or No 4 is Harry Potter's aunt Petunia's house number (No 4, Privet Drive, England)...

4 has its own special meaning in different situation... but today, No 4 is abit special to me after this clip was shown in class by my lecturer today. aahahahh want to know why? load the video below:



clip taken from youtube.

This is a clip by Ono YonoYoko(John Lennon's wife). It is not a great video to goo goo gaa gaa about. No special effect or what so ever but from my interpretation of the video, it makes me realise something about life. We, always talk bout looking forward to what is install for us in the future, never look back, but do we ever take a moment, a second in our lives and view ourself from the back, and ironically the movement of our butt?

Some might think that this is a perverted clip, or pornography, but to me, it somehow makes me realise that, a life could be view from many different angle, a view that you never bother to even think and look at until someone tells you. It is like in life, you never know how good this person is because you judge him/her from her first look and not from another view (for example, the view of their butts ahahaha) until u hear stories about what they did.

As for now, enjoy No.4.

My first taste of Jay


it was perfect, fantastic, spectacular, marvelous, superb, amazing, entertaining, fun, great ... and the list goes on...

words just cant describe how much i've enjoyed myself during the concert. almost all my favourite songs was rendered by Jay Chou and man...they are so GOOD! he sang "An Jing" (Silence) while he play his transparent crystal piano at the same time, battled out a piece of song with Yu How (from Nan Quan Ma Ma) from the movie Secret with their individual piano, break dance, played drum, dance (of cos 'duh'), played the "che ling" (i called it chinese yoyo :P), played guitar, played the chinese piano (i don't know the real name of this instrument), sang a new version of "Shuang Jie Guan" (which was so nice), and the fireworks was fantastic.

I danced, i jump up and down and i was screaming non-stop.... basically.. i was having a GOOOD time!

Never regret a penny i spent on the ticket (RM198). Worth the money and the effort of working extra hard during the holidays. It was so worth it! 2weeks of salary for a 2 hrs show..... SATISFIED!

Thanks to Yang for helping me to get the tickets and for choosing to purchase the Rm198 ticket. I was kinda reluctant to spend that much on a concert ticket at first, but after the concert, well..... like i said earlier.... its worth while.

Seriously, it is my first Jay Chou concert and hope it will not be my last!

As for now.... i shall wait for the concert DVD to come out! Soooooo gonna purchase it!

the dog and her

She thought she found the perfect dog as her pet. The dog that could accompany her through walks around the park, the dog that she could cuddle to bed to sleep every night, the dog that understands all her needs, the dog that fetches the morning papers - where they would have a good time sharing the latest gossip, news, technology and interest, the dog that will be loyal to her, the dog that love her as much as she love him, the dog that wouldn't judge her, the dog that have seen the ugly side of her and still likes her, the dog that makes her heart fill with joy, the dog that could flirt with her, the dog that makes her feel secure and the dog that is always there for her.

But, does the dog have the same loyalty and love towards his new found owner? What was the dog's intention? Was he here just to get a temporary shelter? Was he here just for the food that the owner can provide?

When she was about to take the dog seriously as her companion, he bit her and ran away. Bitterly wounded, she tried so hard to hate him, forget him and not miss him. But was it easy for her?

Seriously?

People told her she don't deserve a dog that is disobedient and betrayed her care and love.

...but will she ever gets to find a perfect dog? i wonder....

a life was robbed!

i was deeply sadden by the news about the death of Nian Ning. Although she's a junior i know (through Guiding) from school, i was sad and shock about what had happen to her.

I only know about the news 2 days ago when one of my friend send me a link about an accident news which involves the Konsortium bus which i take everytime i travel between KL and Penang. I was so shock to see her face on the news. It was weeks ago that she added me in facebook and me browsing her Prom Pics but it feels like it was just yesterday. It was just last month that she send me a SuperPoke hug through facebook. Life is so short and unexpected. I believe she's in a better place now and that God has a better plan for her. May she rest in peace and safe in the hands of God.

Please log in to http://buscrashnomore.blogspot.com/ to sign the petition to bring justice and help to prevent this accident from happening again. 3 innocent lives were robbed. The driver had 13 summons on him - but he is still able to drive a double deck bus where dozens of lives are in his hands. Actions should be taken and authorities should be alearted. Preventions should be taken to prevent the lost of dozens of other innocent lives. I do not know how many people i can reach out to through my blog, but at least i did play a small part. Please sign the petition and help make this world a better place. 

You can make a difference.
