woopeee..i can blog!

Yipeeee.. finally I can upload pics pics..wahahah. I've got internet now and yaysssss... say goodbye to good results..haha, stupid sarcasm. Okies..what's below is pasted from what I wrote long ago (like maybe a month ago)..hehe, have to make u read a post that is so expired.Those of you who spent Chinese New Year in Brunei/Malaysia or wherever ur hometown is, u’re were lucky! As you know, I didn’t get to spend mine this year with my famiy and friends and relatives in Malaysia. So sad, right? First time ever in my life. But nvm, I’m pretty sure next year I’ll be able to celebrate CNY. Anyways.. spent my New Year doing nothing much except watch some lion dance and eating some good hawker-style food.Location: Melbourne's Chinatown

haha, i feel like a stupid stalker. I keep trying to take pics of these "ancient" ladies

Can't go through Chinese New Year without watching lion dances man. It would be so depressing if I couldn't get to watch any. To me, it's like such an integral part of CNY, don't u think so?

Lion dance

Location: Outside Crown Entertainment Complex (along Yarra River)

Noticed something? The stage performance is sponsored by Malaysia Airlines. hahah.. so weird, like so out of place or something. I wonder if the dancers also came from Malaysia

Has any of u seen the movie “Ghost Rider”? hahah of course some of u do. I think Fel went to watch it with Clint and some others? Heheh..not very sure :S Anyways.. I went to watch it and it’s quite ok I guess. Funny thing is I didn’t realize that the 80% of the movie was shot in Melbourne (found out on the net) until one part came up. The scene where Nicholas Cage, in his blazing skeleton head and body mode, rode his bike up on top of a white bridge. Hahaha, VC nudged me to remind me of the bridge and suddenly it hit me that that was the bridge which we often use to cross the Yarra River. I mean there are other bridges which we can use and also there are roads in fact. But I like that bridge cause it looks different , like it looks more cool cause it’s made to point at weird angles.

THE BRIDGE

Day time

Night time

Hey, I just realised something. I took the photos of the bridge from opposite sides of the river ler... so why do they still look the same?

Some more pics along the river

I'm so dumb, it took me seconds to realise that this is a rose.

This one not along river..haha, this one somewhere near the casino

Ferrari and I

Don't see me, see car

Punk'd

I, successfully pRank'd or otherwise called as Punk'd ''someone'' yesterday.. and to tell the truth, the feeling of Punk'n someone is definetely not a nice feeling. I wonder how everytime Ashton Kuchter[dono correct spelling or not..] feels after he punk'd someone ; that guy in MTV one. Seriously, he never feels guilty one ey? hmm...

Anyways, my 'small' prank was successful though, with the help of some friends..haha, but too bad I did not have the props like in the MTV but then, it was not a very nice thing to record down la, so yeahs.. and and, to the 'someone' I officially Punk'd.. I sincerely apologized, and.. please don't think of revenging eyy. Hehehe.

Today 27/03/07
This afternoon, went to watch movie ; the haunted school. It was all good and quite thrilling with the sound effects in the beginning, but towards the ending was really... not good. Hm, looking forward to watch more movies, like Mr.Bean's Holiday, 300, Just follow the Law.. and maybe stomp the yard too.. =)

till here... Ciaos`

No Internet at home sucks!

I've just moved to a new house with old housemate, Siew Chien and new housemate Sue-Mae. Every single day we are getting more and more frustrated because we've got no INTERNET connection! So super annoying! U know, everyday, we have to try to use our laptops to steal some ppl's wireless connection. Well, some days it work. And we can happily use some unknown person's wireless internet connection which they left unlocked and surf the net, chat..do whatever. But some stupid, miserable days,when we try to connect and then ok, it's "connected". Then later poof! it goes off and then on and off again. And today and yesterday...damn Lousy. cannot connect at all.

Been waiting for the phone company to connect our phone line. We just registered last week. So, not really sure when the heck are we getting internet. It's such a pain in the neck when there's no internet. Send assignment to classmate also need to go to the State Library where I am now. And moreover, cannot send through MSN. How stupid. Can only send throuh email. Sucks mannn. And then I want to upload pics for u all also cannot. Load one page takes a few mins. And then photobucket doesn't wanna load.

SIGHHH.. more update coming up. When I get my internet.

Sorry, I'm like a complain queen today. :P

Guiping's 18th, 20/03/07

The past few days were.. a roller coaster. Many things happened, and there were ups and downs about it. Sounds like Im going to blog very long about it eyy. Lols~ fortunately for u all, nops.. Im not going to blog very long in this post this time, DUE to time restriction.Haha.lols`

It's 3.34am now, and yeahs.. must be wondering why I'm stil awake ey? lols.. I was very intrigued by Aneurin's preaching until I did not realised it's 3am in the morning already. Hahaha. 'heart is the origin of all happenings' lols.
But it's not all Aneurin's fault la that I stayed up until so late, it is because.. I will not be 'in touch with the pc' for maybe 5days so want to be as 'in touch' as I could be now. Hahaha. kiddings.

So, I'l be away to kL to have fun for 5days until next sunday..but, Im not at all excited over it. sighs` Im dead worried. This holiday Im supposed to be at home revising for my upcoming AS exams, but cannot blame me also.. the tickets are early booked already, and I did not know there were going to be so much things to do in this holiday xP [gee, Im good in making up excuses.lols]

Lalala. Im going to miss watching my tvxq videos during these 5days, and I will definetely miss all of you who is going to tag here.. haha.

..and Im already going to miss Guiping's 18th bday party later tonight. sighs` I hope she will have a good/fun/great time on her day Today and here, I wish her

HAPPY 18TH BIRTHDAY!

all the best in everything u do!

*hugss<3*

Guess that's all I am going to blog here, lols` going to see u all in Tudong again next week in college~ haha.

i insist it was the BEST day.

last saturday, i had had an amazing day. in the morning i was out with fel, story here. the rest of the day i was with shenny, jeewei, adrena and carmen. story here.

first i'd like to say im grateful i was "invited" to Aneurin's place, although not personally, but when i got there, he actually said that he knows me! from the blog! waseehh good publicity lah. ahahha. (rozana sitting beside me is laughing. "dont talk like as if you're a star").

anyway, if you've already read about all the things that Carmen had went through that day, i really applaud her for being so courageous and calm. AMAZING. so many times i told her that if i were her, i'd already be screaming up and down. she said that's not her. haha so i should reflect upon myself hmmm..

and from the optimistic part of me, i'd say that day was full of excitement, even though there were nerve-wrecking times and all, because those feelings are momentary, but the experience will forever be engraved in the minds and when you look back on it, you will only remember how amusing and fun the whole situation was.

carmen, i insist it was a special day. it was the BEST day so far in your life. hehehe! you can't say it's the worst day, because it's over, and nothing bad came out of it right? except your mom saying that she'll never let you drive the car again..but doesn't that mean she'll let you drive another car? an auto transmission car! HAHAHA. =) so yup.

here's something for everyone, i got it from a forwarded email:

A young woman went to her mother and told her about her life and how things were so hard for her. She did not know how she was going to make it and wanted to give up. She was tired of fighting and struggling. It seemed as one problem was solved, a new one arose. Her mother took her to the kitchen. She filled three pots with water and placed each on a high fire. Soon the pots came to boil. In the first she placed carrots, in the second she placed eggs, and in the last she placed ground coffee beans. She let them sit and boil,without saying a word.

After a while she turned off the burners. She fished the carrots out and placed them in a bowl. She pulled the eggs out and placed them in a bowl. Then she ladled the coffee out and placed it in a bowl. Turning to her daughter, she asked, "Tell me what you see."

"Carrots, eggs, and coffee," she replied.

Her mother brought her closer and asked her to feel the carrots. She did and noted that they were soft. The mother then asked the daughter to take an egg and break it. After pulling off the shell, she observed the hard-boiled egg. Finally, the mother asked the daughter to sip the coffee. The daughter smiled as she tasted its rich aroma.The daughter then asked, "What does it mean, mother?"

Her mother explained that each of these objects had faced the same adversity - boiling water. Each reacted differently.The carrot went in strong, hard, and unrelenting. However, after being subjected to the boiling water, it softened and became weak. The egg had been fragile. Its thin outer shell had protected its liquid interior, but after sitting through the boiling water, its inside became hardened. The ground coffee beans were unique, however. After they were in the boiling water, they had changed the water.

"Which are you?" she asked her daughter. "When adversity knocks on your door, how do you respond? Are you a carrot, an egg or a coffee bean?"



Think of this:

Which am I? Am I the carrot that seems strong, but with pain and adversity do I wilt and become soft and lose my strength? Am I the egg that starts with a malleable heart, but changes with theheat? Did I have a fluid spirit, but after a death, a breakup, a financial hardship or some other trial, have I become hardened and stiff? Does my shell look the same, but on the inside am I bitter and tough with a stiff spirit and hardened heart?

Or am I like the coffee bean? The bean actually changes the hot water, the very circumstance that brings the pain. When the water gets hot, It releases the fragrance and flavor. If you are like the bean, when things are at their worst, you get better and change the situation around you.

When the hour is the darkest and trials are their greatest, do you elevate yourself to another level? How do you handle adversity?

TVXQ!

I'm loving my room now.. with 'tvxq' on my walls now. The 'semangat' whenever I come into the room. Haha. lols!
Just want to share and express out my happiness. =D

Tvxq always, esp Yunho~

Emotions

I am so loving this song again.. 'WHY' by the 98degrees..

We do almost everything that lovers do, and that's why it's hard, just to be friends with you, and everytime your heart is broken by the fool, I want you to know that it hurts me too. It's hard to wipe your tears away, knowing that you should be with me.

why, why are we still friends when everything says we should be more than what we are, and tell me why, everytime I find, someone that I like, we always end up just being friends.

I would hate for you to find somebody new, who you really love, cause it would mean losing you, but am I a fool girl not to say, if Im always scared, I'l lose you anyway. Somehow someway I've got to choose, no matter if it's win or lose.

I dont want to be like your brother, I dont want to be your best friend, I only want to be your lover, when will this end, if I told you that I want to be in your life, if you could be the woman in mine.

The lyrics are so...sad and it once again touches my heart when I listen to it, after so long.[lol, Lyn..please remind me again to return the cd to you. Haha, I've borrowed it for..so long. Haha.. xP]

Anyways, glad to hear from Jasmine again. You take good care of yourself over there ey.. *hugs*

So updates about me. Wednesdays are stil bad for me, dont know why. Someone has cursed my wednesdays ey? 'Uncurse it, anyone?' Lols. Anyways, everything has treated me well, so far. My studies; Mr Lock has started helping us the slow ones by having extra class every Monday from 1-2pm which I find it helpful in my physics. My maths, I've started revising my paper 1&6 already..hope it's not too late. Other two subjects, are going fine I guess, I hope.

My love life, still blank. The person I have loved eversince I forgot when already, still has not love me yet. Hahaha, kiddings. lols! Anyhows, Im okay with my single life now so to those friends who are concern about my love life, do not worry okays. I'm just patiently waiting for my Mr.right to come along. Hahaha.

So, yesterday was Kaiping's 18th bday and he had invited a lot of ppls to his party. We all had a great time over there singing and singing and singing. Hahaha, we sang like we haven been singing for ages, and now that I think about it, We did not really hold the mic to ourselves only eyy? hmmm.. cant remember, but I know I sang 'a few' songs. Lols, and I was all hyper there with the chabos [dren, carmen, jeewei, guiping and apple] and the other ppls there. Hehehe, and and it was 'LoL' to see Jiaying there.. we just love to talk craps+mr.spongebob. Haha.
Reached home around 1+ am and thank goodness my mummy did not scold, she's just worried. She is always worried when I come home late but she always acted like she was going to bomb me before I come home everytime. doink~ Anyways, I love my mum eventhough sometimes I feel like I dont love her but I do love her.. I love my family la, sometimes. Lols.. okays, enough of my crappy 'contrast'

Ciao ppLz..and, keep on tagging eyy.. make this bloggie alive again. <3

Back in Melbourne

HI guys,

U realize everytime I blog, I’m like a crazy freak who likes to bombard u with wordy, long and boring stuff. Like many events all compressed in one entry? Heheh, sorry here’s another one of those. Hahah but with lots of pics..weeee..

Well, it’s been Looooong, really long, since I last blogged. I really feel it’s been so long. I dunno about u. I think it should be long for u too… seeing that a whole festival (Chinese New Year) has just come and gone ever so quickly and that u guys must have had lots of tests that u’ve taken week by week. And me? Lots of things..heheh. Let’s start

I sort of had a lazybum life when I first arrived. I had to come back early just so that I could sign the lease for renting an apartment with my two other housemates. After that was done, it seems that I could have had (if I had the money) flown back to Brunei and spent maybe a week or two before I come back again. Cause all I did was shopped (well, see what’s new. Didn’t really buy anything) and cross-stitched. And basically did nothing except waiting for orientation day which was on 15th Feb!!! So stupid when I now think back about it. U know why?? Coz since I studied in Trinity College last year, which is a subsidiary of University of Melbourne, I sort of know my way about the uni already. Cause we used to walk around there the whole of last year. So, during orientation they kept introducing the places and I felt that I wasted my time being there. I know I’m supposed to make many new friends during this time, but then.. it’s like I don’t click with those ppl. They’re like different…nyeah. Maybe I’m just being fussy. I did find some friends which I “sometimes” meet in lecture and talk for abit.

All my friends from last year in Trinity are like separated and that sucks a lot. I’m in Engineering, then others are in Architecture, Vet Science, Medicine, Media and Commerce. So we seldom meet up nowadays. Sad sad  Then, in my faculty, there’s like so many guys and they're not handsome one ok. Quite nerdy one. But occasionally there's handsome guys around. Arghhh… still, we need more girls. Girls ..pls come to Engineering if u can ( heheh..eventhough it’s a guy-ish course).So, since all my friends have gone to do other courses, I’m sort of “forced” to make new friends which kinda turned out pretty ok I guess. But u know, it’s really intimidating when I see those local Aussie students being so natural and open to discussions. I can’t do that. Don’t have enough knowledge and courage. I am a stupid coward. Anything they don’t understand or wanna clarify, they just raise their hands in front of a few hundreds of ppl in the lecture theatre and just ask what they wanna know with everyone staring at him/her. Scary :S

Started classes only on 26th Feb. See? Got so much time before REAL classes start. Screw this stupid orientation thing.. waste of my time..should have spent Chinese New Year in Malaysia and could have spent more time with u guys back in Brunei. Lucky next year I don’t need orientation anymore..yays. just need to come back before classes start.

Okies, then there’s physics lab class. How weird would it be to be one of the only two Asians in the group of about 10-15 ppl and that the other Asian is ABC (Australian-born-Chinese). Very very intimidating. They seem to not naturally wanna be my lab partner because I’m not their kind or something or maybe they’re scared of Asians?? I dunno… then this nice Aussie girl sort of ask if I’m ok with her being my partner. Of Course I’m okay. More than okay, I’m grateful. Other classes were ok I guess. I don’t really wanna comment on my classes. It’s like I have no comment at all. I dunno if I like them or not. I dunno if I’m meant to do Engineering or not. Kinda lost. And I dunno why must there be like 2 or 3 lectures a week for each subject. Can’t it be just one lecture? Stupid stupid. But anyway.. hate the fact that I have 9 am classes everyday except for Thursday. So lazy to wake up that early. Last year I used to have 9 am class only for one day in the week. I know it’s kinda ironic that I’m talking about 9 am being “early” when u guys wake up at 5 or 6 am everyday and of course I did that everyday for like 6 years in SGS. But still, I just don’t like it… I would prefer a 10 am or 11 am class. It just feels better! A little bit more energetic. Or maybe it’s just a psychological effect :P

I’m lazy to continue eventhough I’m supposed to post pics and talk more about what’s going on/went on in my life. Another day perhaps.. I’ll be back!!

p/s: Lyn.. something’s wrong with the “equation”, as in the + is supposed to be =?
